Just a little while ago, and he wasnt mincing words, true trump style. Saying, quote we have a bunch of babies, losers running our country. Hes off to pennsylvania as Hillary Clinton heads for ohio. Former governors Mark Parkinson and jim douglas are going to tell us what to look for with just 18 days until election day. Plus, developing today Cyber Attacks disrupting system of americas most las loved compan. Did you try and check your twitter this morning . You might have had a problem. The latest on the fight against isis as well. And weve got another shocking drug price scandaling to tell you about. Were less than an hour to the closing bell, lets start the countdown. Cheryl breaking news, the dow turning positive for the week just moments ago. Now were down 1. 09. Look, its were going to have to see what happens in the next hour, but youve got all three major indices on track to head into the weekend at least on a positive note. A lot of numbers were watching for you, but want to check on the Market Action today, because the s p and the nasdaq are holding onto their gains. Youve got the large cap benchmark turning green just a few moments ago. S p barely higher, nasdaq not even a quarter of a percent, and the dow just alternativing negative. The turning negative. Were going to look at one stock, microsoft. If you own this, youve got to be happy because its touching a lifetime high, surpassing a level last seen during the dot. Com boom back in 1991. Take a look at that stock, its at 59. 85. And then facebook is another tech heavyweight breaking out to new highs right now. The social media giant is on track for a record finish. Were up 1. 39 right now, 131. 40 on that stock. And here is the real showstopper. I just mentioned it, youve got a possible megamerger in the works. The wall street journal is reporting that at t is in advance talks to acquire time warner. Shares of time warner surging on that news, at one point hitting the highest intraday level since 2002. Taking a look at that, its twx, 89. 07. Theres your jump on that one. Other media stocks are jumping onto the band wagon. Youve got discovery, viacom, cbs all rallying on that news, all in the green. Well, it is a media megadeal that could change the landscape forever. It could happen as early as this weekend. Heres kind of the breakdown. A, the and and, the owns directv, and in addition to its massive telecommunications networks, and it would combine with time warners media brands like hbo and other properties that are underneath that flagship of time warner. So what would the new conglomerate mean for both industries and also for competitors . I know hes going to sink his teeth right into this one, Charlie Gasparino is joining me with this breaking news. Charlie, thank you for joining us. I know its your day off, but you had to get on the air to talk about this. What do you know . Well, listen, i just want to put this in context. I would say like twitter, time warner has been in merger discussions and shopping itself for the last two or three years. Theres no doubt that every Major Company including our own has looked at it, has tried to work out some deal. The ceo of time warner, jeff fusion, has the luxury that jack dorsey of twitter does not have, and hes got a rising stock price, hes got, you know, positive earnings, hes got growth. Hes in the catbird seat on this thing. The real question comes down to, i think, at t. Big company, 260 billion company compared to about 60 on time warner. They dont have a lot of cash on hand. And one of the things that fuchs has been talking about is doing a cash deal. So the real question is does time warner go out there and delete its current shareholders . And i can tell you look at the stock right now, at ts stock, thats what i meant. Does at and t, they have a real issue. There is not an analyst out there that is positive on this deal. And be one other thing i would be really cautioning about when reporters say advance talked, preliminary talks, you know, just be real careful with this. We just went through the twitter fiasco at cnbc where they were talking likely to get done, and as you know, nothing happened. I think this is different in this case. Time warner is a real company. If you want content and, you know, at t obviously wants to build out its content, and there is a sort of parallel Business Model in with what comcast did with nbc. So it wants to go that route geffen whats to going on given whats going on with cable and the cord cutting right now. It needs content to shore up the company. But im telling you, you know, financially this is not an easy deal for at t. Theyre going to have to be diluted, and analysts arent going the like it, investors arent going to like it, and there are some regulatory issues that are going to go down. So just be real careful trading this stock off the notion of advanced talks. Cheryl okay. I am telling you time warner has been in talks with just about everybody. And be as i reported as sun valley right before i got thrown out of the conference a couple years ago, i remember reporting about and it was the late, great jimmy lee, the investment banker, gave me this tip that google and a lot of Tech Companies were interested in time warner. Because, guess what . Apple, google, they have a lot of cash. They can buy it. Cheryl right. So this, it may if this deal doesnt happen, another deal is going to happen with time warner, but really careful playing the shortterm over advance talks. This has got, you know, i just worry about that that sort of, you know, if youre a small investor. This companys been shopping itself for a long time. Its going to be sold i dont know when. Cheryl carr charlie, thank you for this intel and also as we watch these stocks, just remember with the comcast deal, and you had a lot of regulatory hurdles so obviously, you know, the question here is what do the regulators, if this deal was to be announced, what would they have to say, and would it even go through. Charlie was just saying, so much consolidation in the media industry, Telecom Industry as well. Two tough businesses trying to kind of combine. Weve seen this story play out before. Well see what happens with time warner and, of course, with at t. Charlie gasparino reporting on the phone for us. Meanwhile, reports of a massive cyber attack knocking out sites like amazon and netflix on friday. A lot of this began early this morning for some users, it appeared to be a massive denial of service awe tack. But multiple sources are now telling fox news they dont believe that these internet issues were a nationstate, but they could have been a distraction from an actual attack. A lot of pieces here to put together. Peter barnes has got more details from the nations capital. Different analysts are making different comments right now on this, peter. Sort through it for us. Reporter thats right, cheryl. This is a cyber attack apparently targeting this Company Called dyn, disrupting major sites amazon, netflix, twitter, spotify, airbnb, mainly for users here on the east coast. Not immediately clear who was responsible. Multiple sources have told fox this attack did not appear to be directed by a Foreign Government but was launched perhaps by a disgruntled individual or individuals. One source saying, quote, there wasnt much alarm. This was targeted to be disruptive. It doesnt seem to be, it doesnt seem this was a nationstate behind it. But another expert telling fox that this denial of service could be a smoke screen for a nationstate cyber attack. Bottom line is that government officials, National Security agencies are all looking at this. One official saying that the u. S. Is looking at all possible scenarios including possible cyber activity. Of course, the National Security agencies are on heightened alert for Cyber Attacks and hacking because of the hack of the private email account of john podesta, the chairman of Hillary Clintons president ial campaign. All thats been leaked out the last couple weeks on wikileaks. Weve been reporting on that for the last week or so. And just last week, by the way, or the department of Homeland Security issued a warning about a new hacker approach for blocking access to web sites that involves infecting routers, printers, smart tvs and other connected devices with malware that turns them into bots, bot armies, robot armies that overwhelm web site servers in denial of service attacks. Anyway, were on it, and if we get any more details from this end, well get it to you. Cheryl certainly, all the usual suspects coming to mind. You think about china, russia, north korea, and theres several on that list especially those Eastern European players. Well continue to watch, peter barnes live out of washington. Peter, thank you. Reporter you bet. Cheryl well, to politics and the battleground state of florida. Score one for the republicans. A judge rejected democrats request for counties to finish verifying new voters by this coming sunday, the day before early voting begins. Republicans argued this would open the door for ineligible people to cast their vote. Adam shapiro is in miami, hes got all the latest details. Adam . Reporter and this is a victory for republicans when you consider, cheryl, that 60,000 people signed up in the last week of eligibility to register to vote here in florida. But now they have to be verified, so theres a backlog. Now, nobody will be turned away from the polls in florida, but what the democrats proposed was doing away with, essentially, the verification process which would have opened the door for potential fraud. The judge, who is known as a very liberal judge, federal court judge walker, actually said, no, thats not going to happen, were going to stick with procedures in place in the state of florida. So all of this plays into what donald trump has been talking about and, in fact, today hes not in florida yet, hes coming here on sunday, and hes going to make a big push in the Sunshine State next week, but he is campaigning trying to reach audiences which usually vote democrat but he says should now be voting republican. Take a listen. I say to the Africanamerican Community and to the Hispanic Community and voters, what do you have to lose . Vote for donald trump. I will fix this. I will fix this. [cheers and applause] i will fix it. And the democrats have been taking advantage of the Africanamerican Community and the Hispanic Community for years. Reporter now, just to reiterate, here in florida they have a procedure in place even if youre not registered or theres a problem, you can vote with whats called a provisional ballot. But about 40 of those get thrown out, cheryl, because it turns out after they go to verify the provisional ballot, the person casting that ballot was not eligible to begin with. That stays in place. But theres a verification process what the democrats wanted would have, essentially, done away with that. Cheryl all eyes on voter eligibility. Weve heard that a lot from at least one of the candidates this week. Adam shapiro live in miami, adam, thank you. Reporter see you, buddy. Cheryl all right. Take a look at the dow 30 heat map.

Youve got a number of slam dunk earnings reports out this week from microsoft, youre welcome, stuart varney, on that one. Mcdonalds, netflix, paypal. Netflix really blowing out the numbers, but not even these high flyers can bust the market out of a rut. Youve got the s p 500 which hasnt seen a new high in 46 days, and looking ahead to next week whats it going to take for the market to find its groove again . Lets get to our floor show, traders at the new york stock exchange, the cme group and, of course, the nymex. It is interesting, matt, at a good point here that weve had some amazing numbers, especially that netflix number. And its like the general markets just shrugging it off whats the hold up here . You know, i dont know. Weve been stuck in this malaise for a long time, and were at an earnings recession here as theyre calling it, and the results have been actually pretty good. Oils been favorable, taking a large part of the market up, but we still cant break out of the highs. If this at t time warner deal does not come to fruition, that could be negative. Cheryl why . All youre looking for is deals and mergers . I mean, that cant be everything. No, thats not everything, but that was certainly something thats rallied the market all day. We were down 100 points, weve rallied back, so that was the impetus for the rally. If it doesnt take place, maybe this market fails because it hasnt rallied on such good news and other things like that. You know, weve been counting on these as catalysts, and were just not getting the market move were expecting. Cheryl Chris Robinson at the cme, the other big mover or nonmover lately has been the fed. Its baked in, we think, Chris Robinson, but the fed is the other part of the party. These deals wouldnt be going through as likely if we did have higher interest rates. Well, i think its probably baked in. I mean, if you look at the action weve had in the bond market and the u. S. Dollar, u. S. Dollar making fresh eight month highs today, looks like it wants to take a run at par, so thats factored in. I think if we dont get the rate hikes at least by the First Quarter of next year, then you could see some return to some volatility. But were within 2. 5 in the indexes of the highs. We cant get through the highs, we cant get through the highs. We go back to just eight, nine months ago in january, were 19 higher than where we were there, 350 points in the s p. So its possible that if we dont get a continuation move higher, you could see a correction x. If thats something youre worried about, the time to protect the bottom is when were sitting here at the tops. But i think thats, you know, weve got an unemployment number in two weeks and then the election. On the 4th we have got the unemployment number, and on the 8th weve got the election, and i think we may just grind here until we get through that. Cheryl yeah, youre right. Maybe a waitandsee attitude until you know who the next president s going to be, more importantly, what congress is going to look like. That might be even more crucial to conversation investors, actually. Want to go to alan at the nymex. Something that has not been boring this week is oil, its been all over the place. Right now were kind of subsiding, were at 50. 85. You had people talking about 60 this week, alan. Where are you sitting . I agree, it is subsiding. I think were rangebound right now. So i dont think were going to see 60, not yet at least. Theres still too much supply of crude oil in the world, and its going to put pressure on the marketplace. We do have opec meeting, a lot of talk going on with that. But i still think were going to be rangebound for the next month, month and a half, and that range is in the high 40s to low 50s. I dont think we see 60, and i dont think we see it by the end of this year. Also want to bring up last week we talked about natch a algas rallying natural gas too fast, and sure enough, its off 30 cents this week. Cheryl well, the forecasts for the winter temperatures, its looking pretty chilly around the northeast, i think consumers would be happy to see nat gas backing off, otherwise its going to be expensive for folks, and thats an economic story. Matt, chris, alan, thanks. Appreciate it. Have a good weekend. Cheryl you as well. All right, im thinking about that tough mudder video from earlier. Lets do that this weekend, everybody.

Yet another innovation only at a sleep number store. Look lag at live pictures of Vice President joe biden campaigning for hilly in pennsylvania. Bill clinton campaigning in florida. I am joined by former democratic governor from kansas, Mark Parkinson, former republican governor from vermont, jim douglas. I will address you both as governor. Well keep this straight, i promise. I will not mess up. Governor parkinson, start with you and hillary. Her unfavorables in particular this beak with all the wikileaks emails being released, how rough is this for her . Talk about the down ballot as well. Some democrats would love to get their hands on the senate, that may not happen if their main candidate ensconced in scandal with wikileaks. Hillarys unfavorables are more than favorables. That would be a problem if she wasnt running against someone with worst unfavables in the history of politics t would be great if we elect a president little more favorable than unfavorable. She has tightened it up a little bit. Where she is at she is feeling pretty good about the race. Well find out. Cheryl governor, what about the party itself . Are you hearing rifts within the progressives that are upset, because of these leaked emails, she has somewhat insulted some her own party . Are you hearing that chatter in wash tan where you are now . Not really. Look at wikileaks before the convention. They were hugely impactful. Led to a change who runs dnc. Look at wikileaks since then, that is almost nonevent. Why didnt hillary post the speeches in emails. They have not been that big of a deal. Cheryl governor douglas, more to talk about on the republican side. Donald trump was here in new york at a indidder and very prominently, some say, very negatively went after Hillary Clinton, she shot back as well. Governor, douglas, he doesnt seem to go back in the middle with regards to republican at all . He is not a very disciplined candidate, thats for sure. He is unusual one. This is very strange election season. Really surreal. I think as mark said, any other republican, probably would be in good shape in this campaign. The second, leastliked candidate since polling began happened to draw the leastliked one as a general election opponent. There are a lot of americans who feel disenfranchised. Who are quite angry, dont think political establishment has gotten the job done. Who knows what will happen. Liz gop, many weve seen in the building last several months. They are disgruntled but can the gop turn things around . Now it is downballot problem that many republicans are worried about. Speaker paul ryan seems in particular worried about that, what happens with congress . Certainly reason for concern but, here in vermont, for example, poll came out showing republican running for governor in the lead. I think a lot of voters across the country can determine the best candidate in each race on individual basis. I think there will be a lot of ticketsplitting. Of course, even if there is a large victory for the democratic ticket this year, i think of, 1964, 1996, when the republicans came back the next time around and won the white house. I dont think some has said this is existential problem for the party. It is a troubling time. Cheryl troubling time, politely. I heard others say it not so politely frankly. But governor parkinson, so Many Democrats there is a lot of confidence if you look at polls for Hillary Clinton. Yeah. Cheryl democrats say this is their chance to go after the senate. There is a lot of money here. Looking at numbers. Clinton in october had 80 million, leading donald trump in cash. Does the Campaign Flow the money down and focus on senate . If you look at history, no one has won by the numbers that hillary is up right now, without getting the senate back. The poll of polls has her up six or seven. If it stays at that, republicans are going to lose the senate. Bigger question what happens in the house. Cheryl you think spread between clinton and trump dictates who wins the senate . Has a lot to do with it. A lot of people coming out to vote never voted before. They will tend to vote straight party. If she wins by three or four, republicans still have fighting chance in the senate. If she wins by seven or eight it will be over in the senate and house will be in play. Cheryl governor douglas, people worry republicans will stay at home and not go to the polls at all with donald trump. Are you worried . The same poll i mentioned, showed phil scott in the lead, showed 45 supporting Hillary Clinton in vermont and 17 for donald trump. That is only 62 between two of them. Awful lot of people undecided, voting for independent candidate and deciding not to vote at all. Turnout could be a factor. Who knows whom that will help. Cheryl youre both former governors. I bet youre both happy not to be aboves governors right now. This as you said, a weird, weird election. Former governors douglas and parkinson. Food good to have you here.

Service member killed in iraq yesterday. He was 34yearold chief petty officer jason finan he was embedded with Kurdish Peshmerga forces when a vehicle he was riding in ran over a bomb north of mosul. This marks first death of a member of the russ military in iraq since beginning of offensive to take back mosul from Islamic State fighters. Isis springing a surprise attack on oilrich city kirkuk. Terrorists killed workers and Security Force members. Power to the city continued uninterrupted throughout the fight. This attack is disfraction from the ongoing offensive from the terror group in mosul which the United Nations said could require the biggest humanitarian relief operation in the world. Fox news military analyst and retired Navy Captain Chuck Nash how to fight for mosul and how serious the threat for isil is in kirkuk. Thank you for joining us. The rules of engagement. Isis needs to know very well american force, we are backing up iranians. Well not fire on a hospital. Well not fire on a school. There are reports out exactly where theyre setting up the new headquarters. How tough does that make it for iraqi and American Forces to get to the heart of isis . Well that is one of the reasons, cheryl, why were not directly embedding u. S. Forces with the tip of the spear with these guys as they go into mosul. One, this is not our fight. We trained 12 iraqi divisions. They will take the tip of the spear to go do that. Iraqis dont care about rules of engagement than the United States or our allies. Cheryl iraqi force was go into a hospital or school . We know theyre using human shields. We know that. Exactly. The thing is, cheryl, if you take weapons where you militarize, start firing from a hospital, a school, a mosque, normally under the rules of warfare is off limits, if you militarize that thing, then it loses that immunity. It become as valid target. Cheryl all right. Lets talk about the kirkuk. If kirkuk is lost, how detrimental would that be to the Iraqi Government . Oh, if kirkuk were to fall that would be disaster on several fronts. I dont think that is likely to happen. As you mentioned in the leadin, diversionary raid, to pull forces from the mosul effort to disrupt, pattern, tempo of what the allies are planning for mosul. So it is also probably a morale booster for isis forces because theyre seeing Senior Leadership take their families and flee westward towards syria. They know that this will be a really ugly lastditch fight. They will probably die fighting it. So they need a boost right now. Theyre out there to show the Iraqi Government, everybody else, they can be insurgency to go back to the very roots what they were doing when they started. They were an insurgent operation. They werent Holding Territory trying to govern. Cheryl captain nash, let me ask you this, if iraqi and American Forces are successful, if we defeat isis, dismantle isis, are you worried another sunni Extremist Group could rise from the ashes to come to power . I say this, this is the evolution weve seen over last decade in iraq. And cheryl, that is exactly what is going to happen. Militant islam has been around the since the sixth century. That ideology is not going to go away and within the civil war within islam between the sunni and shia you have elements of both branches of ideology striving for supremacy to say they are the best, thatter this the most accurate in their behavior in their teaching of what mohamed said. So they are trying to outdo each other and everybody right now focused on sunni islam and in particular isis and al qaeda. The most virulent forms of that. But there are some on the shia side as well and just dont get the headlines. You have whole iranian state, that is a. [inaudible] a lot of things going on. Cheryl captain nash, i dont have a lot of time, i do want to ask you about ieds. Every american you hear that word and shudder at thought because some american lives were thought or destroyed because of ieds. That is what isis reportedly is doing. They have surrounded mosul. That is why we think this american and you reported this american casualty happened. How worried are you about the they have had a lot of time to set this up, perimeter if you will. They have had two years to figure this out. Theyre not only planting ieds all over the place, explosives and buildings, real landmines, not homemade or crafted ieds, but conscripted children to turn them into suicide bombers. They have dug ditches around the city, filled it with oil to light that on fire to obscure the ground from the air so it limits the use of air power. And they have started putting snipers up so that any families that try to flee at night, snipers have night vision scopes, and theyre killing these families. Theyre shooting them as theyre trying to get out. They want to fold the civilians in place to use them as human shields to slow down the advancement in mosul. Cheryl were seeing first images of what fualaau jaw looks like today. Fallujah, they are worried about what mosul will look like. They have been there for two years. God knows what the situation will be for those that are still there. Captain chuck nash a lot to recover. Thank you for being with us today. My pleasure. Have a nice weekend.

People are covered on your policy until 26. But look at the problems. That is the good. Here is the bad and ugly. Premiums are soaring because this stuff costs money. Options are shrinking as well with insurers pulling out of the exchanges. Deductibles have risen, people think maybe i dont have insurance because im paying outofpocket anyway, enrollment has been decent but not as good as they thought. Maria spoke with one of the architects of president s Health Care Law, ezekiel emanuel, brother of chicagos mayor, he said despite the problems he thinks Health Care Law is success. It is not a matter of failure, it is success. President obama clearly said, after six years weve seen unintended consequences. Weve seen problems with the legislation. No one, from day one said it was perfect. What we actually need to do is to make tweaks.

It is an amazing stock story but do you worry about amazon . People will look at topline growth as well as Gross Margins. They will not look at actual earnings per share because theyre reinvesting money back into the business.
