Tuck forget tax relief if you are well to do it reinstates 3. 8 surtax on investment income. Number three, medicaid funding gets tweaked. Probably not as much as liberals want. But this an additional 45 billion for opioid treatment. Welcome all. So today we heard mcconnell say its time for the senate to rise to the occasion and hes chiding republicans to get in line and support this bill. They are voting next week. My question, can he even get it to the floor . Hes got sack strong argument. Get it to the floor then vote it down. His margin of error for getting it to the floor is zero. Rand paul and Susan Collins said they are not going to vote for that. Gerri we have been through two iterations of this bill. More are promised. We even have Lindsey Graham with his own new idea. The bills are a dime a dozen. Thats right. We had seven years to figure this one out. There was a failure of leadership that there wasnt a sitdown meeting right after the election to say here is our timeline, let. Make it happen. They have to have 20 hours of debate and unlimited amendments. I think the thing thats interested in this debate, nobody is talking about something they should be talking about. We are talking about lowering premiums and deductibles, we are not talking about lowering costs. Gerri we are going to break this down. Last week the white house said, hey, the democrats are much more organized when it comes to healthcare. Why are we . What did you make of those comments and is it hurting the efforts to bring this bill forward . Its been hurting the effort the entire year. They ran on Obamacare Repeal over and over again. They must have expected this moment would never come before us. What they should have done is put that repeal bill on the floor. It would have been interesting to see them take up that same bill. The democrats beat the republic doonts punch a few years back. Now, you see where this debate has come seven months into the republican control. Gere require gerri its 7 years that they have had to get their act together. What i found interesting when i raid when i read the details about this. They stride scrub the mean out of it. There was a comment from the president saying he thought the Senate Proposal was mean. A lot of that is democratic talking points. To neds point, there is a lot of disagreement among republicans how to reform the healthcare system. There were tons of meetings, the problem is people disagree. This bill is attempting to commit the different factions. Gerri i think we also have to focus on getting healthcare to the people. If you cant afford it you wont get services. And thats the big frustration folks have. Tell me what you mean by fixing the cost. Its pricing transparency. What are the actual costs of procedures. They will say we are going to require people posting what they actually cost. Insurance Companies Want costs to go up. He want a low vol, high margin approach. We wanted a high vol, low margin approach to benefit the American People. We could see the American People walk away as the been fish airies of this instead of the Insurance Companies. It looks like insurers will get baimed out. Thats not the right thing. Is it . No. I think what ned is touching on. So much of that conversation about lowering healthcare cost has nothing to do with health insurance. It has to do with the supply of healthcare, Nurse Practitioner licensing. So much of it doesnt have anything to do with insurance. We have come so far down this road putting an insurance card in everybodys pocket and losing sight of the costs. Gerri a lot of these networks the choices are so the narrow, sow small, maybe one doctor or hospital, you are not getting what you paid for. At the end of the day its about repealing and replacing obamacare. Its not about reforming every single aspect of the healthcare system. We dont want a single bill thats 5,000 pages to reform every aspect of the healthcare system. Does it do a perfect job . No. But does it deserve to have a hearing on the senate floor . Yes. Gerri one of the constant complaints i hear from the republicans is their original bill in the senate was completely misunderstood. They were cutting millions of people off at the pass. They were restraining the growth of medicaid over time. Under obamacare, medicaid was going to expand by 231 billion. And they were going to expand medicaid by 333 billion. Just because somebody has medicaid coverage doesnt mean they are getting care. Over 30 of doctors in the United States do not accept medicaid patients. Why are we putting more money into a dysfunctional system of medicaid instead of going for real reform. Part of that debate is between the more liberal part of the senate about this medicaid sphangs expansion. I think expansion into a failing system doesnt make sense to me at all. Gerri how do they square the circle . Getting enough republican votes is almost impossible, right . You are right. This is the political reality. You have to get this to the floor. 20 hours of debate, unlimited amendments. This will have to go back to the house. What we are debating and talking about right now, the fine bill that hopefully will get to Donald Trumps desk wont look much like what we are talking about right now. Gerri is it going to make it to the floor and can it pass the senate . They might as well have a debate on the floor. But i agree with ned, the fine bill wont look much like this one. We would like to see this move further to the right and pass a true repeal of obamacare with this once in a lifetime opportunity. Gerri can it make it . I think it can. The key is to pressure senators, if you have disagrements, get this bill to the noor and fix whatever you dont like about the bill. Gerri i am going to wait and see. Im not convinced they will be able to herd all the cattle. A shock number of doctors, nurses and Healthcare Providers are instigating the opioid epidemic. You will want to hear this. Were on to you, diabetes. Times up, insufficient prenatal care. And administrative paperwork. Your days of drowning people are numbered. Same goes for you, budget overruns.

The department of health and Human Services conduct the biggest crackdown in history charging hundreds of doctors, nurse and Healthcare Providers in opioid schemes. 120 of those charged were directly involved in prescribing and distributing those drugs. John, you are a former prosecutor. What do you make of this . A famous bank robber was asked why he robbed banks, and he said this is where the money is. The Trump Administration is going after Healthcare Providers who have violated the law its a very significant initiative. Gerri dr. Howard, i know you are in this business of helping addicts get off opioids. To what degree is the medical industry locked into this . To what degree are people getting their drugs from doctors . We are finding a tremendous amount of doctor corruption and doctor abuse where the doctors are giving 60 oxycontin and 60 vicodin for a few days of pain relief. There is such a tremendous amount of abuse. Im happy to hear that the government is cracking down on the corrupt providers. Here in los angeles its not just the medical providers who are corrupt. There are so many independent providers, Treatment Centers, outpatient programs that are involved in all of this corruption. And the Hills Treatment Center where i work, we are trying to stop this within the industry because everybody is suffering because of this corruption. Gere require heard and interesting fact i want to share. In 2015 there were enough opioids prescribed in america to medicate the entire population of mayor cap for three weeks. I want you to hear what Jeff Sessions had to say about this imrakdown. Heres what he had to say. Trusted medical professionals have chosen to violate their oath and put greed ahead of their patients. Some have made their practices into multi Million Dollar criminal enterprises. They seem oblivious to the disastrous consequences of their greed. Their actions enrich themselves often at the expense of the taxpayer, but also feed addictions and cause addictions to begin. The consequences are real. The emergency rooms, jail cells, futures lost and grave yards are the results. Gerri these are taxpayer dollars being misused. Its us paying the tab. These are vulnerable people. These are people who are addicted and they are being preyed upon by someone you should trust. But one thing want to mention. There are so many good people in the medical system, and we cant overlook that. This is a behavior healthcare problem, not just a Law Enforcement problem. Gerri they had health and Human Services there, not just justice on the scene. It was interesting to me, the Opioid Crisis is a decade or so old. We are just now getting down to what may be at the center of all this. Why has it taken so long . Well, you know, i started shooting heroin at 16, and that was 50 years ago, now im clean and sober off heroin for 32 years. The supply of heroin when i was using it in d. C. , new york and urban centers, now it is in every suburb, every small town, vermont, ohio, it has spread like cancer throughout the whole country. Not only that, but the Insurance Companies are not giving the Treatment Team or the Treatment Centers enough time inpatient to deal with the heroin addict. We are only getting 1520 days inpatient to turn somebodys life around from the Insurance Companies. Its the government, its the Insurance Companies, the providers. Gerri john, you wanted to jump in on this . Therefore there is money wherever there is money there will be corruption. Gerri you make a good point there that money gets abused over and over and over again.

Gerri President Trump in paris meeting with his french counter farpt emmanuel macron. President trump saying we must prioritize the interests of our country. Tensions between china and the u. S. Is getting ugly with the deficit hitting its highest level since 2014. Trade deficit with china about 30 billion. Ouchy. Can this really get fixed . I would love to see this fixed for the sake of American Workers who need those jobs. But how likely is it . It has to be fixed. I think one of the reasons President Trump is president is because of this issue. America entered terrible trade deals around the world, but none worse than china. Its not free trade. They are not nearly as open to our products and services as we are to theirs. President trump ran on this mantra well reinvigorate the American Worker and work from a position of strength. China needs us much more badly than we need them. Gerri at the end of the day they have to sell in the u. S. Because we have this Huge Consumer market. When you pull apart the trade deals, these things are like 40 years old. They are archaic. Dont we need to update these and get something for u. S. Workers . Good evening to you, gerri. Yes, we do. Nafta, you are talking well over 20 years ago. Technology has changed, the world has evolved. The world marketplace is entirely different now than it was then. We need to look at these and say are these the way they are constituted in the best interests of the United States and the American Worker . I would argue they are not. Donald trump got elected in part by saying the chinese are manipulating currency. So yes i agree with steve, we have the leverage. If the question is, is the congress willing to negotiate and will the president enforce it. Gerri there was an amazing story about apple in china. Apple is the company that wouldnt help us getting information about people who are trying to harm us. This company over and over again saying privacy of its customers more important than. This is the height of hypocrisy. I actually agree with apple. I lean libertarian. Sow i was sympathetic to their argument. But when chinese money is on the line, privacy doesnt matter. They are willing to get into bed with the chinese. This very day, Nobel Peace Prize winner died in a chinese prison. Thats the kinds of country we are talking about in china. Thats who apple decided to get involved with. Beijing, let many not worry about their human rights. Gerri apple needs to remember who made them sow wealthy and who made them all that money. Thats just one womans view. A new report revealing it was the Obama Justice department that allowed the russian lawyer who met with donald trump, jr. Into the u. S. Well have more details.

Gerri President Trump defending his son donald trump, jr. , again for the controversial meeting he held with a russian attorney during the Campaign Season last year. Take a listen. Most people would have taken that meeting. It is called Opposition Research or Even Research into your opponent. I have many people, only been in politics for two years, i had many people call up, oh, gee, we have information on this factor or this person or frankly hillary. That is very standard. Gerri president mounting a Strong Defense of his son but according to the hill, it turns out that the russian lawyer was initially cleared into the United States by Justice Department under extraordinary circumstances. Now this revelation means, guess what . It was the Obama Justice department that enabled the newest and moss intriguing figure in the russia trump investigation into the country. Oh, by the way without a visa. Here with me amy holz, ned ryun and ron christie. Start with you. What do you make of that last detail it was actually the Obama Administration gave her clearance. This is extraordinary, gerri. It was extraordinary. This woman was not cleared to come into the United States. Had to apply for waiver to come here for a court case she said she was here to litigate. Lo and behold she over stayed the waiver allowed her to be in the flights. I have questions why the administration decided to let her in on the Obama Justice department. Why she overstayed amount of time here illegally, why are we not talking about donald trump, jr. , and of course this russian woman . Gerri ned, do you agree . I agree. If this lady alleged was agent of kremlin, why would the obama doj and specifically Loretta Lynch to let her in to be in the country for the meeting. There is other interesting aspects to this now. People are talking about done, jr. , why did she take meeting. Talk about this womans lawyers, she has close ties with fusions shun gps, on poe research firm, will have to eps he answer before the Senate Judiciary here this week. There is lot of interesting connections looking at her who is this person, why was she here . What other connections does she have . Amazing when people start to ask these questions there are very you peek questions this woman has be fusion gps, gerri, they came up with the steele dossier and working with the russian lawyer on mag knit city act. Fusion gps was genesis of this trump collusion fairytale. This woman was hundred one hers tied to fusion gps a lot of interesting connection to be asked. Gerri connections go on and on. Amazing once you pull back the covers what you find. Amy, to you have strong feel what donald trump, jr. During the break we were, classic case of 23yearold new to campaign really has great dirt gives to the boss. Generally there is campaign manager, pipe down, kid, were not letting boss anywhere near this. This russian woman coming into the United States being cleared by the doj, that is interesting side story in of itself. Gerri, might come as surprise to our viewers, washington, d. C. , is crawling with russian spies. That is part of why you protect your principle from people like this. That he doesnt know that. Gerri good point. Ron to you, you you worked for george w. Bush. I mean at the end of the day were there times you would hang up the phone, no, im not meeting with you. Or was it open door. Thing that amazes me about conversation, seems like these folks met with so many people i not sure i would have met with. Gerri, i can say time i worked not only president bush and Vice President cheney, there are people that want to beat down your doors to meet with you. You really took it on the merits. Will this advance the president s agenda . Is this partner we can work with to achieve a specific result. Yes i would take meetings if i thought it was beneficial for the president and his administration. Many, many, ned knows this, absolutely not. Or it looks like a little shady. I can second that, worked for Senate Majority leader bill frist. There was gatekeeper. Chief of staff. They two through all the requests for Senate Majority leader who was appropriate. We didnt see that type of structure on Trump Campaign. Probably not even that structure in the white house currently. Gerri go ahead. That is why you have campaign counsel. Face it this meeting was illadvised. Was there criminal act . No. Was there collusion . Absolutely not. Why you run it past campaign counsel, should i do this meeting . Campaign counsel would say no, that is not a good idea. Gerri what happened, everybody drifted away. This isnt important. I will be on my phone. I got to leave. Latte waiting for me at my desk. Gerri thank you so much. Have to go. Good to see you, gerri. Gerri major averages ending in the green. Dow surging to the 24th record close for the year. Well break it down for you coming up. It comes when your Insurance Company says theyll only pay threequarters of what it takes to replace it. What are you supposed to do . Drive threequarters of a car . Now if you had Liberty Mutual new car replacement™, youd get your whole car back. I guess they dont want you driving around on three wheels. Smart. With Liberty Mutual new car replacement™, well replace the full value of your car. Liberty stands with you™. Liberty mutual insurance. Its are and whereing to know you come from. I didnt know a lot about my personal family history. And through ancestry it brought us closer to understanding where i came from. Finding out that im part native american and that i was related to one of the Founding Fathers i think has brought me closer to feeling more patriotic, definitely, and also feeling more like this is my home and this is truly where i came from. Im jamie and im the fifth greatgranddaughter of benjamin rush. Gerri former rivals called off the pranned merger. On line names in fantasy sports, opposition from regulators and two state attorneys general. And automatically adjusting to help you stay effortlessly comfortable. There. I can even warm these to help you fall asleep faster. Does your bed do that . Oh. I dont actually talk. Though im smart enough to. Im the new sleep number 360 smart bed. Lets meet at a sleep number store. baby crying slow jazz music fly me to the moon and let me play bell ringing audience cheering gerri stocks ended the day on a high note with the dow soaring to another record. My next guest says the market is being helped by a rebound in the earnings in tech and financial sectors. Helping me to discuss is ross gerber. Ross, what is going on here, my friend . I like it. It is about time were really seeing improvement in the economy at a real level, real spending and that is starting to translate into good earnings on top of higher rates helping the financials and helping the economy. We have a confluence of a lot of positive stuff happening all at the same time and its really good for stocks. Gerri hey, ross, you know a lot of people tell me this market cant continue but there is really there there. There is Earnings Growth there. When you look at the s p 500 the growth is like seven or 6 . Eps this quarter and tech is still seeing 11 growth in earnings. So there is real stuff here. This isnt like dotcom bust time, is it . No, it is nothing like that. In fact, you know it is hard to say the market is that overvalued by any means. I think it is fairly valued. But the price has moved up a little bit in anticipation of the earnings moving up. Now the earnings are moving up. So that leads to higher stock prices. We are nowhere near a recession right now. And so its a very good time for stocks. We dont see the kind of excessive valuation anywhere other than private tech unicorn stocks like uber and stock that the public doesnt own. So it is actually a great time to be an investor. Gerri but, do you believe there is going to abroadenning of stocks doing well . Face it, technology has pretty much carried the year so far, right . You look at some of these stocks. Yeah. Gerri look at amount amazon, look at apple they are on fire. Do you think other stocks will pick up the lead here . Absolutely, technology will always continue to do well because they will report very strong Earnings Growth especially in the chip sector. Not Like Technology will go away. Were starting to see interesting movement in some of the small caps, as active managers like myself look for alpha, if everybody is piled in the s p 500 we can make more money by looking at nons p 500 stocks. So i think were seeing that and were also seeing a big transition into the foreign markets. Gerri youre an active manager. Barrons had a big coverer story this weekend how everybody piled into the index funds, now we have more index indexes than we have actually stocks which i fine shocking. They are saying it will be the tile of the active manager. Do you think over the next year, 18 months, two years, it will be more important to pick stocks rather than just play the broad indexes . Well, from my perspective it is always more important to be an active manager. Passive investing does not work when the market goes down 35 . Nobody is passive. Most investors lose money because of their emotions, not whether or not they can buy disney and hold it for 30 years which has work pretty good. It is always good time to be an active stockpicker. Most people are not capable of doing it. That is why they should hire a professional like myself. Gerri thanks, ross. Good for coming on. Pleasure to see you. Pleasure to see you too. Gerri media moguls, tech titans at allen and company tex conference in sun valley, idaho. Charlie gas is there today . This is my last hit of the down valley conference. Gerri thank you. Im so happy it was over. This is a great conference by the way. I didnt get thrown out. I didnt get bit by a rattlesnake and bee didnt sting me even though im in the bushes. Why are you in a field, charlie . Im in the weeds which is where fox business put us for the shot. There is a lot of news at this conference. Two stories we picked up from fox business. Number one came from les moonves, ceo of cbs, said for the timebeing ruled out cbs would do anything major in terms of financing or acquisition or merger. He believes cbs right now, which is always in the rumor mill for possibly buying something or be merged with Something Like a distribution outfit like at t merging with time warner, he said no, were not doing anything for a while. Well stay independently. That was a president big scoop. That had a lot of people chatting around here. Other thing interesting, believe it or not, the baseball commissioner, rob manfred who is not in miami where theyre trying to sell the, sell the Miami Marlins. That is a big story. Weve been breaking a lot at fox business but he was here. We ran into him. We spoke with him. He said there are three bidders now for the Miami Marlins all in the race. He basically reiterated what weve been reporting is that jorge mast, millionaire miami businessman clearly at table. A group led by derek jeter, former yankee shortstop and tag romney, son of mitt romney, Hedge Fund Manager has a group. There are essentially three bidders what he said for the Miami Marlins. You might ask what the baseball commissioner is here . This is media, television. Guess with baseball teams do . They sell their Television Rights through cable. They make a lot of money doing that, why, robert kraft was here, owner of the new england patriots, television and telecommunications. Gerri right. These Media Companies are Major Players in sports. So thats what we had today. Been good week. Gerri good stuff. Im glad i didnt get arrested. And ill see you on monday. Gerri all right, charlie. You take care of yourself. Try not end up in jail, okay . I still i still have six hours to get arrested by the way. Gerri anything could happen. Mr. Gasparino, thanks for your time. We appreciate it. The state department cracking down on foreign travelers in a bid to stamp out terror threats. You will want to hear this one too. Details coming up. I am totally blind. And i live with non24, a circadian rhythm disorder that can throw my days and nights out of sync, keeping me from the people, places, and things i love.

Gerri fox news confirming state department will require all countries to hand over comprehensive data, help visa applicants or face travel sanctions. The goal . Figure out whether a traveler represents a travel threat. Eric beach, steve cortes. Youre sitting right next to me. What do you make of this good idea . Number one thing donald trump ran on was protecting our country. I know we talked about having a travel banned. The ninth court was overruled for the timebeing. This helps with vetting making sure we dont allow terrorists or terrorism being allowed into the country without being fully vetted this is a great part of the process f not we provide sanctions against china and other countries that are great programs like eb5 or 6 program that allow people to come in to a ply do things of that that nature. Gerri you got to know who they are. Got to know who they are. Gerri steve this is the president making good on promises to crack down to find out who is coming into the country to keep us safe . People out there, the left will sagerry, gerri, this isnt fair. This is bad idea, why should the president be involved in this. What do you say . Gerri, of course it is fair. Sometimes Political Correctness is not just dumb it can be deadly and the consequences can be dire. We saw that in san bernanadino in that deadly terrorist act. The wife allowed to come here, even cursory investigation of the social media profile she was somebody that didnt belong in the United States, hates our country and our values. We need to be vigilant, america first. The world wants to come here. The world wants to do business here. The world wants to emigrate here. We love all of that. This is not isolationism. It being smart, we have a right as a people to control who comes here and under what pretext. If countries wont cooperate us as mention china, we have right to retaliate if necessary. I dont think well need to. Even just mentioning these enforcements will be enough i think to keep us a lot safer. Gerri eric, you know i just wonder what kind of information theyre going to step out . Lets face it, there is a wealth of data out there. What will they require . Do you have any sense of that . No, but it doesnt matter, does it . As long as it is extreme vetting. I dont like government spying on u. S. Citizens to get data. I dont like that. As steve mentioned china, people coming to the country, needs extreme vetting practices put into place. Social media is big, facet in that. Gerri right. So is other background checks in terms of con veryizations or family members that might do harm to america. Gerri people get emotional about this they say, hey, look, were known for having the open door, come, bring the weary to our shores the tired. They recalled periods and era where folks had nowhere else to go. World war ii before that. The irish famine, on and on. This is the place to be. Right. Gerri how do you square those two things . , dream vetting and that . Extreme vet. I dont think there is any contradiction there. If youre not a nativeamerican youre an immigrant to your country. Donald trump, a lot of people dont know, he is son of an immigrant. He is married to an immigrant. We love immigration. Legal immigration is treasure to this country. Illegal immigration i believe is a scourge upon our land. I believe an top of that, allowing people to come in from dangerous places in the world such as described in the travel plan, from dangerous places in world where we have no real recourse knowing who is coming in, again isnt just dumb. It can be deadly. So, we have a right, as a nation of immigrants to determine the rules and processes for becoming an immigrant or even coming here as a visitor. Again the good news is, were a nation of dynamic immigrants. Well going to continue to be but well do it in a way that protects america first. Gerri steve, do you agree with that . I hear this argument all the time. I live in new york city. I hear from the left every 30 seconds but how do you talk about that in a way that makes it clear . Doesnt the bottom line have to be American Safety first . You know, agreed 100 . That has to be, look the foundational principle of government, first, first and foremost before anything else is protecting its citizens. I think donald trump has made that very clear. He is certainly made it clear as a campaigner. I think he is made it clear as a president. And the travel ban, im thrilled that the travel ban i think actually will become a reality eventually, because it is just smart. There is nothing xenophobic or racist saying wait a second, if youre coming from a failed state well take a very close look at you. No one has the right to travel to the United States. That is gerri thats right. We dont give rights to the rest of the world. Were not being smallminded about this it is just smart. By the way, the president s over in europe right now. I think he is doing a great job so far. He has been a diplomat surprised a lot of people in europe. We dont want to become europe. Gerri thats right. What we dont want happen to have massive refugees. Gerri europe has been hit time, and time and time again. They have none of these protections. Thanks for that. Thank you. Gerri iraq declaring victory over isis in mosul. New indications that war on isis, well that is far from over. Shes nationally recognized for her compassion and care. He spent decades fighting to give families a second chance. But to help others, they first had to protect themselves. I have afib. Even for a nurse, its complicated. And it puts me at higher risk of stroke. That would be devastating. I had to learn all i could to help protect myself. Once i got the facts, my doctor and i chose xarelto®. Xarelto®. To help keep me protected. Oncedaily xarelto®, a latestgeneration blood thinner. Significantly lowers the risk of stroke in people with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. It has similar effectiveness to warfarin. Xarelto® works differently. Warfarin interferes with at least 6 bloodclotting factors. Xarelto® is selective, targeting just one critical factor interacting with less of your bodys natural bloodclotting function. For afib patients wellmanaged on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® compares in reducing the risk of stroke. Dont stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase risk of stroke. While taking, you may bruise more easily, or take longer for bleeding to stop. It may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If youve had spinal anesthesia, watch for back pain or any nerve or musclerelated signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. And before starting xarelto®about any conditions, such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Its important to learn all you can. To help protect yourself from a stroke. Talk to your doctor about xarelto®. Theres more to know™. Gerri the u. S. Led coalition conducting more airstrikes in mosul, iraq, hitting several isis targets just days after the iraqi prom declared, a quote, total victory in the war on isis. Pentagon officials confirming that hundreds of isis soldiers remain in mosul, affirming that the war on isis, quote, is far from over. Here to discuss, Lieutenant Colonel michael walsh. Colonel, great to have you on the show. We were showing pictures, amazing scene there. What do you make of this . What is going on there . I think the pentagon is absolutely right that isis may be dead as a state but certainly not dead as a movement. They still occupy a number of mediumsized towns on the Euphrates River outside of raqqa, syria, and mosul, iraq. For mosul, that is truly devastating. Isis okay he paid the a town of 2 Million People for three years and turned the city as deathtrap. Soldiers, reporting couches, ovens, doorways, rigged into explode. Peoples homes turned into deathtraps. Folks on the ground, demining agencies, following from the state department and military are saying it is not going to be weeks or months, but years until they can truly clear that town and allow the inhabitants to come back. Meantime theyre focused on at least demining and removing boobytraps from Critical Infrastructure like electricity and water. It will be quite some time. Gerri it is just devastation as far as the eye can see. The state department saying it will take ten years to clear this all out. Right. Gerri now you say that isis, is not dead. It is no longer controls mosul but there is still, you know, around a field. What can they do . What do they have the strength to do . They will move from trying to essentially govern a state as they were doing, a fairly large one, i might add, into insurgency mode. So theyre going to be assassinating any type of local leadership that we try to put back into place. They are going to be attacking the iraqi military. And including u. S. Soldiers if they can. So theyre going to continue to try to disrupt and to try to prevent the Iraqi Government from governing. In that regard the Iraqi Government has quite a challenge on their hands. There are iranianbacked militias that are shia, opposite from the sunnis that supported isis. Then you know, the Iraqi Government is trying to get the kurds and the yazidis to return to mosul which isis brutalized. You need to it prevent retribution back on the sunnies that may have been forced to support isis or you cant tell the difference. So there is quite a governing challenge. As i have been saying, clearing isis out of mosul and raqqa was the easy part. The hard part is just beginning. Gerri the hard part is just beginning and are we set up in a position to actual win . We dont have a lot of time here, quickly. I think we have to remain engaged. We have to remain engaged diplomatically, why the state department is critical. Keep the military on the ground. Gerri i have to go. Thank you. Great show, guys. Thanks for joining me. Lou dobbs is coming up next here on fox business. Lou good evening, everybody. The dems leftwing national media, the deep state, all trying their utmost to cast a russian attorney as an agent of the russian government sent to america to collude with the Trump Campaign and specifically donald trump, jr. The entire false narrative, however, and unfortunately for all of them, is falling apart. Before their very eyes, and ours. That russian attorney it turns out was in the United States after the reportedly direct intervention by then attorney general Loretta Lynch
