Theres not going to be a president donald trump. Thats not going to happen. [applause] its not going to happen paz we are not going to be fear is not going to be something that we thats going to be what drives our country. Maria new troubles to talk about ftsa this morning, one official getting a 90,000dollar bonus, even workers failed to find weapons at check points. 3,000 check bags did not make it onto planes at one airport. Hat trend in hollywood turning video games in blockbuster but will they be successful at stock market . Retail under pressure. Companies hurting as more people skipping stores and going online, retail sales later this morning, we will have the numbers, markets this morning in asia overnight weakness across the board. In europe losses as well, as you can see major averages down half a percent and one and a half percent. Twothirds of 1 in london and in u. S. Is carrying over. Down industrial average expected about one half of 1 . We have a cantmiss lineup. Former massachusetts senator scott brown and former nato commander james and actor and director is with us coming up. Dagen mcdowell, great to see you. Dagen i cannot wait for ron howard. He direct it had best car race movie of all time, rush, so hes got a lot to talk about, im sure. Maria wait for you see what he has, he is incredibly busy, he has a lot coming up this september. So all that ahead. Our top story, however, race to the white house, donald trump and gop leadership praising yesterdays meeting calling encouraging as the party struggles to unify itself before the Big Convention in july. I thought it was a great meeting, we had ce discussed a lot of things, a lot of important things, i thought it was a really great meeting. I think paul felt the same way and everybody else did also. Let me say this, i think we had a very encouraging meeting, its no secret that donald trump and have have had our differences. Thats common knowledge, the question is what is it that we need to do to unify the Republican Party and all strings of conservative wings in the party. Both donald trump and paul ryan left the room, i think they both expected a good meeting but i think they both left and were even more kind of impressed with each other leaving the room. Maria joining me right now radio talk show host, good to have you on the program. Let me kick it off with you, whats your take on what you heard yesterday what does this go next . Thats a good question, i would say that this ryan endorsement is going to take months to happen, theres no question. Its not going to happen overnight. Trump is going to have to do a lot of work to convince paul ryan that hes indeed for paul ryans caucus. Donald trump speaks to division so its going to be very interesting relationship. Its going to be a tight rope to say the least. Maria dagen, thats what we heard from paul ryan yesterday, we just had a contentious primary season, this takes time. Dagen it does take time. Can we remember too this is only the second time that these men have met face to face, so i think paul ryan officially was caught off guard because the nomination process ended so quickly and, again, this still heightens the tension, theres a little bit of tension there, it keeps people interested, it makes people watch what is going on in the Republican Party, its like a fantastic reality show. You cant look away. [laughter] maria yeah, it really is. Cristten, how do you see it. Paul ryan says hes not ready to endorse donald trump. So what, the voters have overwhelmingly reject it had gop establishment and paul ryan is the epitome of the establishment. All that matters is the voters. The voters made clear that they love trump and rejected ryan and the establishment buddies, the fact that paul ryan hasnt endorsed might help with the voters because the voters are fed up with the establishment. Maria, to push back a little bit. Paul ryan is the highest ranking official in the United States government right now, he was the former Vice President of the last president ial ticket, paul ryan has a big say here and represents a good swath of the congress, but beyond that, he represents over 200 members of the United States house of representatives who are really trying to get things done. So it would be odd to say donald trump won the primary, we want regular order in government where the republicans still have the house and possibly maintain the senate which probably unlikely, they are going to need to work with paul ryan, you cant just reject him. Maria this is not personal, this is not able paul ryan personally, these are about the principles of the Republican Party, thats where i think we get confused because its not a personal thing, its about whether or not the republicans feel that donald trump is sticking to those principles. Thats exactly right, maria. Right, i think that the voters feel confident in trump, the only people who continue to push back on trump are the establishment wonks and paul ryan says he wants unity in the party, if they want unity, they should get behind the nominee. Maria get on board. I have to switch, i want to get your take kristin on the other side of the aisle, we have new document just released that Hillary Clinton was aware of the risks she was taking using a private blackberry with email, clinton became frustrated trying to use a secure line, she simply told staff to call her on her home phone, whats her reaction to this . The email scandal will continue to slowly linger, would it affect the primary probably not. How does it play in the general, the question is yet to be seen. Is donald trump going release tax returns, what other social group is he going to offend. The Hillary Clinton is an slowburden story, the character of donald trump versus her is more so of the headlines. This email thing, play out, is it a big deal, do democratic voters care about it, no. Dagen other than the fact that shes under investigation by the fbi, its not a security inquiry and review, they have referred to the fbi investigation, jim conducting it said, i dont know what that means, so shes under investigation, donald trump isnt releasing tax returns right now which is his choice, hes under no obligation dagen, since the 70s, we have seen every single president ial candidate release donald trump, what does donald trump have to hide. Dagen he has an audit. Maria hes in the middle of an audit. Dagen billionaire businessman. Maybe hes not. Dagen we know he has money. [laughter] maria i almost feel like the Foundation Part of this investigation is going to be bigger than this email scandal. I mean, look, we will wait to see what the fbi has to say but the email scandal, but kristin, this movie clinton cash is connecting the dots in terms of what Hillary Clinton was doing as secretary of state and dealings with Foreign Government at the same time of bill clinton, her husband getting upwards of 600,000, millions of dollars from those fame governments for giving speeches. And also they were donating to the Clinton Global Initiative and the Clinton Foundation. Right, the recent documents released are another example of Hillary Clinton breaking the law for her own convenience, this is start to go look really bad for Hillary Clinton, she is a weak candidate, the fbi is on her tail, i think this is going to hurt her a lot in the general election and its a great opportunity for republicans to win big, but again, the republicans need to really unite if they want to beat hillary. I think shes weak and this is going to look really, really bad in the general election. Maria guys, whats your take on George Clooney, very adamant, there will never be a president trump. Listen to this. Theres not going to be a president donald trump. [laughter] thats not going to happen. [applause] its not going to happen because we are not going to be used fear is not going to be something that we are going to thats going to be what drives our country. We are not going to be stair scared of muslims or immigrant or, you know, women, we are not actually afraid of anything. Maria whats your take, kristin . I dont think George Clooney represents the American People. He doesnt understand the struggles that we deal on daytoday basis. These idiots in hollywood have no idea what the American People want. Hollywood elites even under fbi investigation. Dagen can help you raise money which clooney has done for the Hillary Clinton campaign. In terms of moving votes, the only person that i can think of in modern history that has been able to do that is Oprah Winfrey for president obama. Do i think the American People turn for George Clooney tell them who to vote for, if thats the case, they have much bigger problems than who the president of the United States is. Why is his wife walking the red market in a cast julia roberts, why is he there . Thats his wife. Maria, here is maria go ahead. I dont think George Clooney speaks for everyday americans. Americans are going let fear, we have to work on turnout. Every time donald trump says something stupid, will turn people out, its just simple. Dagen he has to worry about opening the movie coming out because all of the movies have been bomb stinkers. [laughter] maria yaw know what, its getting panned, so we will see. Richard and kristin, thank you so much for joining the conversation. Thank you, maria. Maria straight ahead, Security Problems from airports going from bad to worse, computer glitches of piled bags and missed flights. Apple has been dethrone, googles Parent Company alphabet the worlds most valuable company, amazing. We will break down the numbers. We will be right back in new york state, we believe tomorrow starts today. All across the state, the economy is growing, with creative new business incentives, and the lowest taxes in decades, attracting the talent and companies of tomorrow. Like in buffalo, where the largest solar gigafactory in the western hemisphere will soon energize the world. And in syracuse, where imagination is in production. Let us help grow your companys tomorrow today at business. Ny. Gov maria welcome back, we are live this morning from las vegas, the Obama Administration reportedly set to start a new deportation operation, could be the largest this year. Cheryl, good morning to you. Cheryl good morning, maria, u. S. Immigration officials are planning series of raids set to start this month and go through june in an effort to deport hundreds of illegal immigrant, the operation is targeting specifically Central American mothers and children. Immigrant that cross the u. S. Border illegally after january 1st of 2014 are a priority according to that report. Well, meanwhile googles parent alphabet over taking apple as the most valuable company. Reaching 494. 8 billion topping apples market cap, shares of both companies did fall yesterday. And finally this report for all you flyers out there, tsa screening system, resulted in 3,000 lost bags massive delays and missed flights according to agency official. This just happened in phoenix and is also happening taking aim at tsa for giving 90,000dollar bonus that shows screeners fail today detect fake bombs and weapons during security tests, maria, that official already making an annual salary of 181,000. Back to you. Maria unbelievable. I mean, look, weve all been there, right, cheryl, dagen in terms of getting bags lost, in terms of the upset at tsa but when you actually consider what you just said, i mean, the vulnerability in terms of bombs, dagen, thats pretty high salary given what we are talking about. Dagen we are not getting much for our money in terms of how tsa is operating, theres a lot of pushback because of extremely long line that is have turned up particularly heading into the Summer Travel season. I will say this, we had senator among a couple of senator who is were telling the airlines to drop the checked bag fee in order to speed up the security lines. This is in the a problem of private industry, this is a problem of government. The law makers and the people running the tsa need to figure out how to fix it and fast, stop putting the burdens on the airlines, its not their fault. Maria we will take a short break. Lots to come in the program. The gun use today kill Trayvon Martin back on the auction block. Coming up next. Retail cloud growing darker, first macys and in nordstrom, retail sales likely a market mover, some people blaming amazon, next. This just got interesting. Why pause to take a pill . Or stop to find a bathroom . Cialis for daily use is approved to treat both erectile dysfunction and the urinary symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently, day or night. Tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and medicines, and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex maria welcome back live from vegas, retail pain continues, nordstrom shares shrink continue. Macys reported its worst Quarterly Sales since the financial crisis, that was earlier this week. Today we are waiting on jc penny, april retail sales report is at 8 30 a. M. Eastern this morning. Im going to bring in kevin kelly, recon capital, what are you expecting, what is going on with detail, the consumer still not reacting to oil prices where they are . Kevin consumer hasnt rebounded and spending money more on things like monster energy, they have done well in this environment, but whats really happening in retail sector, margins are coming under compression as well. Margins are starting to compress w e so e with macys, jc pennies, now with nordstrom. Maria i was surprised during the break retail saleses at in about two hours and estimate is up eight tenths of a percent. Does that tell a different story than what we are seeing from some of the retailers . You want to look over the last three months, last six months, last year just to start to see a trend. What we have seen is mixed data. Eight tenths of a percent would be great, its probably start to go spend a little more getting healthier reaffirming the jobs numbers that we have seen that wages are starting to increase so will help solidify the story. Maria markets under pressure this morning. How important for the stock market and what do you think is going on youre here at the Hedge Fund Conference salt, what are you hearing from clients . Kevin if you look at the overall economy here in the u. S. , its roughly 70 services, retails falls into that pretty significant. People are really concerned on the fixed income side of the market and one of the reasons why is we are at alltime lows on yields, companies are really levered, theyre not bringing cash back overseas, so those are some of the issues that people are facing and also the liquidity side because of regulation of doddfrank, tons regulation, banks dont want to take on risk. Thats going to impangt securities specially when people sell. Maria when you like at macys s this because theyre not foot traffic or people are shopping but online, what role does the Online Shopping play in terms of weakness in the retail segment. Kevin im glad you brought that up. Theyre down about 50 over the last year so its been a very tough environment for them and its not all having to do with retail, online sales because you can see macys has great only any channel presence. Maria theyve online. Kevin they have great only any channel, it has to do with competitive environment and it has to do with peoples tastes and changing and going so fast that its hard for big Large Companies to react. Maria we have to talk about google and apple. Wow, apple hitting a twoyear low. Goodbyele the most alphabet Parent Company but hitting the most valuable company in the world in terms of market capitalization, thats pretty extraordinary. Kevin that makes sense, three hottest sectors that you to be right now. Streaming with ewe tune, in the cloud and killing it on mobile devices with android platform, theyre doing very well. Even the ceo said on last earnings, mobile shopping has turned to moments to quick shoppings to marathons, they are capturing that. Theyre not getting the benefit its not as good on mobile because they have better pricing on desk top but theyre the dominant player. Apple really has one device makes up 65 of revenues. Maria what a story. Remember when google went public, nonconvention all auction when 85 . Kevin yeah. Maria 85. A company thats close to 500 billion in market value. Kevin we are talking about execution. Look at what has happened to ewe to be i think yahoo. They were the dominant player and there was an upstart google that really took it over and created to business model. Maria sure did, kevin good to see you. When we come back, still to come the ferguson effect, fbi james comey blaming video, take a look at the cost involved in those body cameras and then this is not your ideal comiewt, thats for sure, a car getting swal swallowed by a sink hole. The story back if a moment here again is Maria Bartiromo. Maria welcome back, happy friday, everybody, im Maria Bartiromo. We are coming to you live, it is friday may 13. Top stories right now at 6 30 a. M. In the east coast. Presumptive republican nominee donald trump and House Speaker paul ryan coming out of their meeting hopeful that they can bring the party together.

Markets this morning under selling pressures, futures to a lower opening for the dow donees industrial average this morning on weakness in europe. All that coming up but first troppers has been suspended on ongoing criminal investigation while arresting an unarmed man, the video on the screen is graphic but show it is two officers beating up driver richard simone, jr. After he arrested to surrendered to authorities following that chase, joining us right now detective rod wheeler david clark, general, good to see you, thank you so much for joining us. Sheriffs, we had cops beating up this individual, whats your take away . You know, i dont have all of the facts and the video is part of it. He led in highspeed pursuit and building up anxiety, i want the investigation to play out and i want to know all the facts before i comment any further on it. Maria understood. Rod wheeler, where do you see it. I agree with sheriff clark, it looks along with everything that happens with Police Officers, we have to get the full stood. We dont know what transpired prior to the cops pulling that guy over and we dont know if he had a weapon and theres a whole lot that we dont know, when people see clipids like this, oh, my god, theyre beating that poor guy up when that may not be the case. Maria so we really need more information in order to make a judgment here, i get that, we are in a different world right now in terms of pictures and cameras, we know what fbi director james comey said hes calling it the ferguson effect, Police Officers are refusing to go over and beyond for fear of doing the right thing. Video affect is leading in spike and we see that sheriff, we see the numbers up in the double digits, wherever you look. But i dont believe that american Police Officers are afraid to do their job. All he has to do is look down the hall and obsessed loretta lynch, theyre on the constant witch hunt looking to snag Police Officer for slightest and he should have sitdown with attorney general and tell her to get the goons and we will go back to work. But strictly on a video, weve been dealing with video since rodney king incident. We know that america watches us when theyre out there doing our jobs. Maria so you do so you do play some of the blame on the tone that has been set in this country from the president . I blame all of it on the tone set. Hes been leading the coare you rus. We need our Police Officers and then go on fiveminute tirade that they are racist and thats been damaging for the profession and undermines the confidence that we have the public see in Law Enforcement officers as they go about the difficult job. I believe that maria yeah. If they back off with the anticop rhetoric, cops will feel out about taking a risk, we are willing to take those risks but only if we know that someone has our back and if something goes terribly wrong not through the fault of the officer. Maria yeah, yeah. Rod wheeler, thats all really good points there, i mean, you know, the police have not gotten a lot of support in the last several years and then, again, when you see pictures like this, that also sets expectations. Absolutely, it does. I will tell you its not only president obama, with some of the rhetoric that has come out of the white house, a lot comes out from local elected officials. In ferguson during the riots the governor there jake nickson told the cops to stand down, so we see that, when i was in baltimore for the riots, the mayor told the cops to stand down, the question becomes, and its a simple question, what do you expect out of your police department, do you want us to endorse quality of life issues . Here is the question, maria, every time an officer gets out of Police Officer car, they dont know if its the end of their career at that point or not, why, they dont know if some politician is going to back them if they were to try to do their job, 99 of the time Police Officers do a tremendous job and we dont get the backing that we need from local, state and federal officials. Maria i agree, they put their lives on the line every day, go ahead. Unpleasant and its never going to be good when we have to use force, was it effective and reasonable. It may not look pretty, its not going to all of the time, but if its effective and reasonable thats what i do when judging these things and i do get to weigh on whether it was effective and reasonable as well as like a prosecutor. But if i think its effective and reasonable im going to back the officer to the wall and if its strong im going to assist in getting the officer charged but more times than not the force was reasonable just like in ferguson and baltimore, the baltimore six are Political Prisoners and state prosecutor who was look forking revenge in charging those six officers. Maria yeah. Whats your take on body cameras . Go ahead. One other thing that i wanted to add to that, not only are they Political Prisoners that you call them, they charge officers before investigation was complete. I have never seen anything like that. As far as body cameras, maria, thats fine, its just another tool thats out there that we have to be aware of as long as we utilize that technology properly. Maria what about that, sheriff, i mean, you know, theres this debate over the use of body cameras, how to pay for them, even more how to manage the high cost of storing the videos for months and sometimes years in terms of storage, are body cameras worthwhile . Yeah, its a force multiplier, i dont have a problem with that technology, like anything else when we rush to implement some sort of strategy, we dont think longterm about the unintended consequences. This is going to be a very, very expensive venture that down the line might fear as we will lose other resources that we need out there to pay for stuff like these because the communities arent going to be able to afford it and trust me the federal government down the road is going to say, thats your problem, we did all we needed to do and now its your problem. Storage is very expensive, how long are you going to store it . Youre going to have to set up entire new divisions just to handle this, the big thing as you said, maria, who is going to pay for it but its here to stay now. Maria its here to stay now, rod, but we have lots of debate in terms of what the impact is from police and what, you know, what theyre willing to take onto the public immediately getting that look at whats happening in a police situation. Exactly. And you know what, we are seeing more and more of that just as the sheriff said, the video cameras are going to be here to stay. The question really becomes how are we going to utilize that video image and the video tape whether its going to be used for evidence in a courtroom or is it going to be used strictly to go after the Police Officer, which i think has been happening. I mean, with the body cameras and every other camera out here, to me it seems like its to go after the Police Officer, to secondguess the Police Officer and whats going to happen is what we see now we are going to continue to see a spike in crime because i will tell you if i was in a police car today i would be reluctant to jump out the car and enforce quality of life issues. Maria and these are the stories we keep hearing. Thank you, gentlemen for the insight. Thank you, maria. Maria coming up next apple making massive investment in uberlike in china, better understand the asian market and if you are looking for r r, how about checking into a spa at burger king.

Good to see you. Katrina, do you think this is the future . You know, i think it could be and, of course, studios are hoping that it can be with assassins creed we might see video adaptation actually making Real Progress at the box office and making serious money. The cast of this film is incredible as you mentioned michael fox, we have oscar winners in this film, the story telling of not only the video game and how they adapted is going to capture audiences whether or not youre aware of the game, similar stories so if i thinkers crossed. Maria you have to believe its going to resinate big, right . Dagen more and more of these films if this one does well. You alicia who just won the best supporting Actress Academy award, originally started angelna joelie. This has some serious chops and theyre opening it in december which is and indication that it will do well among a broad audience.

How does this fit in into what studios want to make and what they are willing to vin vest in gone are the days where studios will put money on block buster because all the block busters are not bringing in the revenue. Exactly, we are staying with the superhero films, they are drawing people to the box office and they are making back the hundreds of millions of dollars that are put into making it. Assassins creed estimated 150 to 250 million on this film and they are expecting to make that back and much more. So they are willing for a film like this that has to potential to put in a lot of money. Maria all right, we will be watching that, katrina, thank you so much for joining the conversation.

Turning to top story right now bill and Hillary Clinton reportedly received at least 100 million from the pesian gulf shakes calling into question Hillary Clintons ability to carry policies. Going to bring Morgan Ortegus and scott brown. Good to see you, thank you so much for joining us. The amount of money that we are talking about cash to the clintons has simply been its being called unprecedented. Whats your take on the story . Morgan thats the most damaging story that hit so far and not much play like benghazi, theyve been effective in hitter her, senator sanders but this story is much bigger and if im him and hes showing that hes not getting out, this is where i hit Hillary Clinton. Its the biggest story out there. Maria i almost feel like this is much bigger than the email investigation and we havent seen the beginning of it, the clinton cash movie debuting and really connects the dots. Money and politics, its been out there forever. The fact that Bernie Sanders is not using it, im not sure what hes waiting for. I think he would have been much better off. Certainly something that donald trump will need to bring up because i agree with morgan, how do you actually deal with a lot of the folks in that region when youre getting hundreds of millions of dollars. Maria how come donald trump hasnt brought it up . Hes just wrapping up his primary and i think it will be brought up that and the fact that she you look at benghazi, russia, lub yeah, a whole host of things that she did not do or did do that facilitated the unrest in that region and throughout the world. Maria Dagen Mcdowell jump in here. Whats your take out on this because we are talking about money from the gulf states to the Clinton Foundation and its 100 million . Dagen its astonishing that it isnt a bigger deal in the campaign trail, frankly. You were mentioning the investigation into the Clinton Foundation. It seems like the email investigation will be wrapped up in short order by the fbi but watch and wait and see all of the information that comes pouring up about the foundation after the election is over with. Maria after, who is speculating on the program recently that they want to wrap up the email investigation in short order but the details on the foundation is not going to happen perhaps after the election . If you actually follow the money and the fact that the Clinton Foundation has not used for actual charities, but basically they and their friends and family to travel around the world lavishly. Maria Clinton Global Initiative set up a 2 milliondollar commitment to went to Nonprofit Company which was part owned by people tied to the clinton. All the money. Maria is there more of the same or a whole new revelation . I think its part of the same and i think if you look and fall the money as we always see in the course of history, youll see that there is a paid for place situation going on. Morgan republican operatives have been whispering for this a long time, maybe potentially a Silver Bullet going into the election. If this company is setting 2 milliondollar commitment, how many other companies are out there like that. Im surprised that this hasnt been brought up. The bigger surprise to me that going into a general election that the Democrat Party only put up her and Bernie Sanders, these stories arent knew, the stories about what the Clinton Foundation has been doing and the money theyve been accepted, this stuff has been around for a while, the Democratic Party has known her very high negative, very nigh vulnerabilities and they chose to ignore it. Theyre making a really big gamble with her. Maria i just find it this is a Daily Caller News Foundation revealing that they received 100 million for pesrian gulf states and leaders and the idea that undermines her ability. Scott if you look at position on womens rights and womens issues and theyre accepting all of this money, as morgan said, that goes right to her credibility. Morgan when your getting a security clearance one thing scrutinize is ties or business dealing with Foreign Governments, foreign business people, entities, the United States government scrutinize that is heavily because they dont want to give a topsecret clearance to anybody who has influence. If people with top security are held to a standard, i think we should hold the president ial candidates to same standard. Maria yeah, let me get your take on what john boehner said yesterday taking shots at senator ted cruz and Hillary Clinton. Senator, boehner said that he would not be surprised if Hillary Clinton ends withdrawing from the president ial race. Scott i think thats certainly wishful thinking, i think they will proper up to to think that theyll be a nominee Bernie Sanders is not what the Democratic Party certainly wants socalled establishment. They dont like Bernie Sanders as well in the u. S. Senate. Also he talked you know, youre references what else he talked about and hes at the point now where he can step back and give a big picture of the old former speaker talking about politics and general and the fact that he was never a ted cruz supporter or even friend or didnt like him in anyway shape or form. Morgan he called him lucifer. Maria what does he say about trump then . Hes come around. Scott we spoke yesterday and i spoke to former colleagues and they were impressed. He was confident and strong and he listened and asked questions and was look forking advice and turned some heads and turned some minds yesterday and that was from leadership. Maria so you felt like that meeting was a turning point . For the people that i spoke with certainly that were in leadership and in that meeting that he was well prepared and confident and strong and he was, you know, listening to them and thats what they want. They want to make sure that that can play and be part of the process and thats what hes doing. Maria what do you think are areas that he need to work on . Strong on second amendment, immigration, trade. Keeping the white house, keeping the senate, making sure that we can focus on Border Security, portland position, military, veterans, the thing obviously are Economic Issues trying to get that economy moving again. Those are the things they are going to focus on and the other things step back and then figure it out. Maria all right, we will leave it there. Morgan, senator good to see you. Short break. More fallout of from capture of u. S. Navy sailers by the Iranian National guard. Ly talk with commander on this, back in a moment on that. And then why wendys is experimenting with a robot workforce the wage fallout is in the case. Stay with us this just got interesting. Why pause to take a pill . Or stop to find a bathroom .

Maria thats what you want to see, you want to see the hardwork earned. Cheryl exactly. He would have been criticized by other parents and the opposite actually happened, which i thought was so fascinating. Maria dagen, how do you see it. Dagen if i had gotten at least one trophy whether it was i would probably have better selfesteem. In this day and age it is a problem, they think something is due them without the work, they are owed praise and promotions and raises without owning it.

One game last night as thunder were looking to close out series with the spurs for the highlights and more from the world of sports lets get right to fox headlines jared max in new york. Jared.

New york times suggesting no few er than russian athletes who won medals at games were part of the most elaborate and successful doping ploys in history. The International Association of Athletic Federation has to decide if russia may send athletes to summer games in rio. Olympics and russia, wow. Trouble. Maria yeah. Russia is trouble. Jared doping in large events. Maria youre with dagen in new york, dagen, do you think the allegations are going to increase tensions between u. S. And russia, is it that big of a story, does it extend to beyond sports . Dagen its that big of a story, maybe not beyond sports but this is incredibly serious and quite frankly shocking and smells like the soviet union, remember back in the day when it was the u. S. Versus the soviet union particularly in the 70s and the 80s and you would have quite frankly women were so popped up that the soviet female athletes that they looked like men. Do you remember that . Jared yes, austere oid finding its way to professional sports that was used by east german athletes. Things are changing but the fact can you imagine russia not being able to go to the games as a result the rio games as a result of this. Dagen you never know, it should be, quite frankly it should. Maria yeah, more issues about the rio games, we have to talk about as we approach the olympics there because this is not an easy story going into the rio olympics. This is an amazing story ahead of it and now this, jared, thanks. Jared max, coming up the fallout over the u. S. Sailers detained by iran continues.

What we can learn from the candidates body language and how you can apply the dos and donts. One navy officer, mcdonalds making changes again. Another milestone for the solar plane making its way around the world. It takes two hours, to make the trip coming up. The broader averages this morning waiting on retail sales, that will take the challenge, we are expecting lower open from the broader stop market. It is up 0. 8 . Oil prices, crude oil down 1 at this point, 46. 21 a barrel. We have a cant miss lineup, stay with us, former nato commander with me. Ron howard joining us, and anthony scaramucci, cohost of the salt conference. The u. S. Navy sailor who crossed into territorial waters in the persian gulf and recaptured for 15 hours this year. In a statement the navy said it lost confidence in commander eric rash who was executive officer of the squadron, for sailors. Joining me is for start navy admiral, thank you for joining us. What is your take on the firing of this navy head. Do you agree with it . I do from what i know so far. The investigation has not been revealed as yet, but what this tells us is the navy feels this officer who was responsible to train that crew broke down. The rules of engagement training, the concept of defending their ship, they failed in all those areas from what i know now. Maria what could they have done differently . There you are in a rainy and waters and the ear and government is saying really in, you are coming with us, we saw pictures, those guys put their hands like this. That picture went around the world. What should we have done differently . The Navy Tradition is dont give up the ship. That is sovereign us territory. It was in a rainy and waters. What they should have done is say to the iranians we are sorry, we will stay right here, us assets will toe us out of your water. They should not have surrendered the ship from what we know. Maria when they surrendered that ship the iranians got control of the ship and they could see lots of information on that ship that was available to them and that is the problem. It is, as well as having our sailors in the iranian regime. It is very clear. Maria what kind of information was open to your ran once they got control of that ship. What kind of vulnerability are we talking about . Not huge but the cryptography, the codes that protect classified information and communications, it is a big deal but not it snowden level breach. Maria that is one of the reasons this guy had to step down. That is correct. It is not protecting the ship, not protecting classified navigational errors and breakdown in the mechanics. When you put that together someone has to be held accountable. We hold people accountable. Maria you think he could have stood his ground and your ran would have gone with that . It is hard to say. We have to see the investigation but these are heavily armed folks. You will see big machine guns, the ear radians, have handhold weapons. I want to see the investigation. It is not clear to me sailors face overwhelming military forces. Maria it could have gone either way. This is hard stuff. The young lieutenant was on the vote and in command. Those are immensely hard decisions for military officers to use lethal force. Maria maria in terms of the technology, it is targeting children, it teaches them the arabic alphabet, allegedly references weapons, jihadi. We should not be surprised. When we look at isis they are using cybercrime. They are a sophisticated organization. In the Television Business look at the production values that isis puts out. This tells us we have to fight them not only with hard power but soft power tools, education, playing the long game, making our own statements to move our values in that world. Maria how do they lure children . Who are they looking to attract . Americans . As we have seen most recently the call of isis inside the United States is declining. What they are going after are the european populations where they have large, out in the suburbs in france or the united kingdom, and they are targeting the immediate vicinity of isis, syria, lebanon or iraq. Any educational program, that is how you see this, they start with children. Maria you look at pictures of this apps, they have crayons, to lore in young people to try to get them involved in the fight as young as possible. This is a for sophisticated opponent. We have not seen it group like this that operates globally, has such sophisticated advertising and branding. Think of the black flag of isis. Two years ago you could not have picked it out of the lineup. To date is the most downloaded image on the world wide web. Maria are you kidding . The most downloaded image . Do you think they will be effective . They will be effective in disenfranchised populations in the middle east. If you have no job, no money, no hope, no family, you are very vulnerable. Children who are coming up in that environment receive that message almost like osmosis from their parents. Unfortunately, they will be effective and we need to counter it. Not us, the United States, but our allies and friends in the region. Maria i understand countering it with education and different tools but will the us be able to track this apps. Now you are touching on an interesting aspect which is cooperation between the Tech Companies, twitter and the us government, i am hopeful we can negotiate, and surveillance. This is a delegate conversation between privacy and security. Our Tech Companies will be helpful over time. Maria thanks, appreciate it. In vegas at 3 00 in the morning.

Then, im ready to go. Nivea inshower body lotion. In the body lotion aisle. Maria candidates body language can be almost as important as the actual policies they are pushing. Carly fiorina was a component of the finger wagon which claims with a big nono. Then there is the one Hillary Clinton, the uncomfortable laugh she uses to gather herself to ask questions. Great to be here at this time. Maria take us through body language dos and donts, this resonates with everybody because we see different moves candidates have been making. You want to kick it off. This is a favorite of donald trump. And in uncomfortable territory, this means keep back, it is aggressive and dominant, you are using further away from the person in front of you. If you are doing this you will come over as aggressive and a little bit alpha female, you dont always want to do that. Maria the i know people point. This is so funny. Hillary does this and others. I dont say dont do it. What you do is walk in front of an audience and start pointing to people, all right, you dont know anyone out there, you do it to create social proof, so the rest of the audience has friends in this audience. Maria the people she is pointing at. They get somewhat freaked out but it works. Maria the sum of power. This goes back to president bill clinton because when you coach people. You tell them never appoint your audience, they get very offended. It is too aggressive. He was coached to put it away on top of his hand like this and it was softer. Maria that is what that is about. A lot of politicians do that. Tony blair, Prime Minister of the uk did it and president obama does it, you cannot do this but you can do this. Maria that works. That works. It really does. Maria the arms of love. Bernie does this a lot. It is a sort of come to me. And and that is what the hug is all about. Maria it makes you accessible. It really does. I have nothing to hide, i am it is another way of saying shut up and a way of saying stop everything you are doing and Pay Attention to me. These are not messages an audience likes. What else . Maria as i already said. I hate when i hear this, dont do that. As i already said you need to do this. People come to conversation late. If you are doing an interview on television dont say as i just said because people might have only just tuned in. Maria it feels like you are getting annoyed with the audience. Without a doubt. Those are definite no nos. Maria other phrases to avoid . Donald is a fabulous canvas of examples because he does stuff right and does stuff wrong. Who knows . What is interesting is he will often say things like they love me. They love me. The hispanics love me. Maybe that is true, not arguing that. It is how you say it. Rather than saying someone loves you, say i am told the hispanics love me. Maria how about what you dont understand. That sounds like a nono to me. A lot of people are so enamored with their own level of knowledge, when they tell you how things work, they understand you dont know. What you dont understand is these things cost money. That is the most offense of thing you can say to someone. They say you dont get stuff, you are not educated, you dont have my level of knowledge and you dont understand. Maria this is really helpful because deacons can be applied in life and business. Ub recently became a citizen, congratulations. Your first us president ial election. The choices i have got.

I feel strongly about Border Security and trade and building up the military. To a large extent paul was there also. We had a very encouraging meeting. No secret donald trump and i had our differences. We talked about those differences, that is common knowledge. The question is what do we need to do to unify the Republican Party and all strains of conservative wings in the party. With this unvarnished assessment of the two mens meeting no bs, very helpful. Mac to you. Maria peter barnes with the latest, Donald Trumps tax plan hot topic among republican leadership. Joining me as one of the men, the republican nominee on the plan, disinterest visiting fellow and fox contributor, steve more joining us. Lets talk about details of the plan, and what you think will be changed . This is a top story because people were not sure what donald trump was going for . He was going to lower taxes and the conversation became taxes going up. Donald trump is going to cut taxes in a big way, if you look at his plan, and the biggest tax reduction in reform since ronald reagan, a huge tax cut, everyone paying taxes on this idea taxes are going up, donald trump is wrong. And too bigger tax cut, this is a large reduction we havent seen since ronald reagan. Maria you are advising him on this tax plan. What are you looking at or pulling out of the plan is most meaningful in terms of changes you are trying to make . Lets start with what i argue is the best feature of the trump plan is he wants to cut the corporate rate from 35 down to 15 . So many times on your show we talked about this the United States cant compete with the highest Corporate Tax rate in the world. Bring that to 15 you will get a lot of growth. The big issue right now as i see it is the static cost of the plan is 10 trillion, that is a big number especially if mister trump once to balance the budget which he says is a top priority. It turns out you could make some changes to the trump plan, we recommend your old buddy larry to cut the cost of this almost in half. You would still get the economic punch from the plan so the trump people are looking that over. I dont know if they will accept the tweaks we have made but that is what they would do if they make some changes and adjustments that are not major changes but save a lot of money. Maria the Corporate Tax rate coming back down to 50 is going to be huge for markets. Once investors figure out you will see that number come down that has got to be a catalyst for the stock market. The other feature people are overlooking in the trump plan is he would take the Capital Gains and dividend tax to 20 . Obama raised it 15 to 24 . I have to make this point. Hillary has talked in her plan about raising the Capital Gains tax. She would take the Capital Gains tax from 24 to as high as 40 . Trump is talking about reducing it. 45 Capital Gains dividend tax and 20 Capital Gains tax is huge in terms of investment meaning you get tax penalty only half of what it would be under hillary. Maria everybody likes lower taxes but how do you pay for this . That keeps coming up with the tax foundation. How will he pay for lower taxes . Where does the revenue come from . Great question. I am no tax reform or. What you do is you broaden the base, get rid of loopholes and cut the rates. Reagan did this in 1986. A few little changes, maybe limiting some of those deductions especially for the high income people. If you are going to lower their rate it is fair to take away the deductions especially the unnecessary ones and if you do that you can do a plan like this, not a huge cost for the treasury and one other point we found in our research when larry and i worked on it, every percentage point increased in growth. If we take this economy from 2 to 3 which is not a high hurdle, that adds 3 trillion additional revenue and reduced cost to the treasury so growth is the key. You get the growth rate to 3 or 4 you will get a lot of new revenue. Maria for sure. We have got to get back to the growth story in this country. We havent seen that growth in a long time. What about the idea that half of taxpayers will not pay any tax . Will not pay any tax . That is the current system. It is one of the defects of the current system. I am for cutting taxes, i have always been, i think everybody should pay some taxes and it is a big problem with the tax code the right now the number is close to 40 pay no income tax. All these plans would take more people of the income tax rolls and not sure that is a good idea. If you are going to vote, and impact on how we spend our tax dollars everybody should have put a Little Something into the system. Maria you have to have a stake in it. Let me ask about obamacare, a federal judge ruled against the marketplaces payments to insurers. What do you think of that . I think obamacare is unraveling. Every single day we see more bad news about obamacare, insurers dropping out or higher cost to the consumer. I havent save 2500 on my Health Insurance, my premiums are going up. It is a big problem. Earlier this week, one of the major clinton advisers on the economy, this gentleman said if hillary is going to double down on obamacare she wants to go full speed ahead with it, that will be another big clash. Healthcare and taxes are where you see the biggest division between where the republicans are and where the democrats are. Maria Bernie Sanders yesterday said this will be overruled again and he is not believing this is going to stick, the judge ruling against obamacare but you speak to business people, small business, large business, putting them out of business. Costs are so significant. There is another element people overlook. If you are an employer as most employers are reporting, their health costs to provide Health Insurance are rising. Not only are premiums on individuals rising but employer costs are rising. If your cost per employee is rising for healthcare, that means there is less money to give people higher wages and salaries. I argue in this election the single Biggest Issue is those flat wages and salaries that havent been brought up for 15 years and there is a linkage to healthcare. Of healthcare costs keep rising 6 or 7 per year it does not leave room for a salary increase, more takehome pay for workers. Maria which is why some companies, Small Businesses have been making sure they keep their employee count to 49 people. They will not go above because they are forced to offer healthcare and other companies are going fulltime to parttime, cutting their hours. There is real impact here, we know it, we have been reporting it. They are called 49ers. I cant tell you how many businessmen and women who run businesses tell me i will be damned if i hire a 50th worker i cant afford because you fall off that cliff. One of the reasons in the employment reports we keep seeing so many parttime workers is one of the reasons is Obamacare Incentivizes businesses to hire people for less workers. Maria thank you so much, steve more joining us. Coming up, season, coming up next outrage after thousands of pieces of checked luggage miss their flights all at one airport.

Mark the covered denies claims his social network suppresses rightleaning news from its trending feed. He plans to meet conservative leaders, the move is seen as damage control. Who could forget this . Maria happy days and hollywood royalty ron howard joining us coming up, just stay with us for the special interview. In new york state, we believe tomorrow starts today. All across the state, the economy is growing, with creative new business incentives, the lowest taxes in decades, and new infrastructure for a new generation attracting the talent and companies of tomorrow.

Gov maria we are live in las vegas, mark doctor berg is set to meet conservative leaders to explain how the social networking website stays as open as possible. Denying claims the site allegedly sensors rightleaning stories on the trending news section. Oldfashioned news values on top of its algorithms, the hottest stories will be. Dagan mcdowell is in new york. What are your thoughts on this . I know they are taking stories from all of the major news organizations. Many of those companies are leftleaning. That is another issue. Dagen a publicist story originally in the Guardian Newspaper came out with internal documents. Facebook followed up and published its 28 page editorial guideline for trending topics and individuals have a great deal of control over what is selected for trending topics, not just an algorithm. The wall street journal goes into the top 10 National News outlets are very important in dictating what is important in trending topics in terms of news. According to rankings eight out of ten National News outlets play a role in determining trending topics are more popular with liberals. Only two of them, fox news and the wall street journal are said to be popular with conservatives. The curators, the individuals can come in and select stories and insert them into the trending module if it is considered to be breaking news. It begs the question of what are the political leanings of these individuals who have quite a bit of control over what the trending topics are . Maria huge influence. You go to see what is trending instead of what people are talking about and you believe that is what people are talking about but that report basically opened a lot of peoples eyes to this story that wait a minute, maybe this isnt what is trending but what the heads of these news organizations want us to read. Maria dagen a Pew Research Report found 60 of facebook users get their news from facebook. Factor in mark doctor berg and Sheryl Sandberg repeatedly preached about openness and transparency on facebook and we are finding out something a little different, altogether different in terms of how news is presented to 1 billion users. Maria we will see what comes out of these leaders. We will take a short break but when we come back and before we take a break in case you missed it there are some of the weeks top moments from the show. Minimum wage i would like to leave it to the state because frankly every state is different. Every state has different costofliving and Everything Else and i would like to leave it to the states but i will tell you 7. 25 is pretty tough. Do you endorse him . I am endorsing the nominee which i dont think is any question who the nominee is going to be. They make you say i endorsed donald trump. We are experimenting and put a Production System in place that has allowed the transactions of private sharers to occur within the day. It is a great advance of technology. Doesnt matter what hollywood thinks. We have the right to vote for whoever we want and trump is the guy no matter what. Maria anheuserbusch in bev may replace budweiser with the word america. The america beer can doing and its a gram photo on the fourth of july is amazing. This is what i grew up with going to the fair. That was something the charge you get when you are in there. It is great but i tell you what, it feels real quick when things go wrong. Compare in the driving versus navigating, bicyclists coming in both directions. My cabdriver the other day, missing other cars, making me nervous. David beckham is having a big influence on the Auto Industry. David has great taste in cars. Easy to do when you have a lot of money. Dagen there is a lot of bad taste in cars and a lot of money how many people on this panel got excited when i said that . Dagan mcdowell. Dagen old and creaky but i still think he is cute. These guys represent blood cells. If you have afib not caused by a heart valve problem, pradaxa helps stop blood cells from pooling in the heart. Forming a clot. Which can travel to the brain and cause a stroke. Pradaxa was better than warfarin at reducing stroke risk in a study. In the rare event of an emergency, pradaxa has a specific reversal treatment to help you clot normally again. Pradaxa is not for people who have had a heart valve replacement. Dont stop taking pradaxa without talking to your doctor. Stopping increases your risk of stroke or blood clots.

Maria from opie to oscar winning director, ron howard is here with us, his take on the rise in streaming and his newest film. The pope, the latest move to modernize the church is ahead. A secret chevy camaro prototype crashes on the test track. Weve got the details for you. And this morning in focus, j. C. Penney is selling off, down 15 in the premarket, after worse than expected. Retail sales rising 1. 3 in the month of april. That was better than expected. The numbers just hitting the tape. As you can see, the market has come off of the lows as a result of this report. Futures indicating a lower opening for the broader averages. Were well off the lows. The estimate was for 8 10 of a percent increase. An increase in april of 1. 3 . Hes one of the most influential men of hollywood, director, producer, actor, ron howard. Howards Production Company Imagine Entertainment just inked a huge deal. The rain Group Investing 125 million in Imagine Entertainment which is behind such influential films such as apollo 13, a beautiful mind, a da vinci code. I had an opportunity to talk with ron howard here in vegas. Great to see you, congratulations on the new investment that you just announced. Thank you very much, its with rain, the company that brian grazer and i have had for 30 years. It signals a new growth for us as business guys as well. Maria this is huge, rain investing 125 million in you. What is that going to enable you to do . Well, its going to give us more flexibility, well own more of what we make, and thats only the beginning because the idea is to go much further with that, scale our company up. Weve been very focused, targeted on servicing particular suppliers and now we feel like were going to be in an opportunity to do more, collaborate more with great artists, actors, and directors who we love, explore television. Were having a lot of success with tv, but its an exciting medium now to go even further with the kinds of shows we can make and be frankly, more, more ambitious still. Maria youve been so incredibly ambitious and i feel we grew up with you, opie and Andy Griffith and Richie Cunningham in happy days and now this, not to mention the incredible films. How has technology changed this business . Talk to us about streaming and all of the new interests, netflix and amazon doing original content. What does it mean for you . First, what it means is that more unique and specific kinds of tv shows and movies speak directly to viewers who truly move that, you know, that tone. That style, that look, that feel. Whatever that show is. And it enables artists to be far more specific and personal in a lot of ways themselves with speaking to that audience and the system is finding a way to monetize that. The system is finding a way to make that commercially viable which means you no longer have to try to speak to the whole world all at once. We began with a certain movie and television show, thats fantastic, and we have empire and bringing 24 back and the da vinci code movies, inferno, they speak to a lot of people and fun to be able to do arrested development, its effective because it targets a specific audience and worked on tv okay. It was wellloved and netflix knew it spoke to their audience in a particular way and brought it back, it was a fantastic creative thing for us and we hope to do more. Maria what do you think resonates with the audience now . I feel like at one point the big studios are saying, we cant afford the big blockbusters. And they started doing smaller lower budget. Whats resonating now and realistic . Whether its the big screen or the small screen, i think there are just more and more stories that speak directly to you, the consumer. I know i feel that way as a fan, that you know, if i want to find a story that interests me, a tone, a genre, a style, i can find it, whether its in the movies or on tv. The economics are challenging, theyre difficult for the studios and this causes the studios to be far more conservative about the kinds of movies that they make. They want intellectual property that everyone recognizesment they want, and which leads to, you know, comic books and best sellers, or they want low budget, easy to market genre stuff like, you know, horror, comedy, broad comedy, that speaks to the dating crowd. And theyre sort of abandoning another group to an extent, but then, you know, new companies are forming all the time to fill that gap and those movies are still finding a way to get made and of course, television keeps becoming more and more exciting as a creative medium. And that that line between movies and television, its just blurring, you know . Theres no snobbery about it. If youre a creative person and the show belongs on television, the idea is on television, youre thrilled to go there if thats the place you can make it and fully flesh it out. Movies, you know, are exciting to work on and of course, you know, and you know, tipping continuing to have a place in the market. Do you think how someones going to watch the film when youre deciding what film to make. Theyre going to watch this on their iphone, on the big screen, when youre actually deciding what to put together. What medium is this story going to work for . Does it live in the Digital World or short form content . Is this something brands would be interested in . Do we want to serialize this, on tv. Over hours and years, and not tell a story thats complete in two hours . Or is this a big screen single viewing sort of experience . But we all know from our own lives that as much as film makers want everybody to see everything that they make, you know, on the big screen with the great sound, and some of us, you know, still prefer to see movies that way, that thats not the majority instance anymore ever. Its always more people see it in the ancillary market than they ever see it on the big screen. But still, i think thats a medium that people love and its not going to go away. I mean, look, vaudeville died as a business, but did that kind of performance go away . No. It became Cirque Du Soleil or it became, you know, saturday night live or something else. Variety shows on television. Radio was supposed to die when television came in. Did it die . No, it changed, it shifted, it found its audience. Movies are supposed to die when cable came in and then vcrs came in and dvds came in and they havent died. So, story telling is something we yearn for, we believe, we love, were entertained by it, were enriched by it and you know, and those of us who love to tell stories are finding more and more ways to get those stories on screens. Maria once again, content is king it feels like. How tough was it to make that pivot from actor to director . Well, when i did it, it was very unusual, and particularly to be a kid coming off sitcomes, i directed my first movie when i was 23, as far as everyone was concerned, i was a kid. Maria is that when you worked with bette davis . That was later, she was tough. Who is this guy from a sitcom. I followed my fathers advice, my father is an actor, rand howard, and hes been an actor for decades. He said shes a great actress and artist, in our heart of hearts, any artist of that caliber knows they need direction, they want it and make sure your ideas are clear and make sure theyre good. If she has a counter argument, listen to it, make it a conversation. And he was really right. By the end, you know, she was patting me on the butt and telling me, she thought i was going to be a great director, so, things worked out. [laughter] i grew up with you as Richie Cunningham. Did you know how big you were when you were doing happy days . Well, the show took off. When Henry Winkler as the fonz became such a powerful pop figure in pop culture, thats when the show was amazing and it was really a thrill to be a part of that, when happy days became a number one show. The Andy Griffith show had been a number one show, i was a kid and didnt understand. This was like being in a boy band or something, i mean, it was just it was huge at a time when you know, there werent 500 channels and all of these distractions. So, if you were in the number one show on Network Television it meant a lot of people were watching you every week and talking about it and that was a very thrilling time. And it was a great bunch of people working with. Maria its going to be a thrilling time this fall, a lot ahead. Thank you. Thanks, great to talk to you. Maria our thanks to ron howard for that special interview. Thanks for joining us. Straight ahead, more people read facebook than the bible. Well tell you about the new statistic that shows how addicted we are to the social network. And chevy has the prototype car, it slammed into a barrier. Morning with maria continues. Welcome back. Tens of thousands of gallons of oil spilling into the gulf of mexico. Cheryl casone with that and the headlines now. Cheryl maria, the coast guard say 90,000 gallons of oil have leaked from a Shell Pipeline into the gulf of mexico. Its connected to four wells that are about 90 miles off the coast of louisiana. You can see it there on the map. Officials say the leak has been secured and theyre investigating. They dont know what caused this. Another headline this morning, the Catholic Church has been unbending on the issue of women priests, but pope francis may have made a move in that direction, believe it or not. He told the heads of womens religious orders from around the world that he would set up a commission to study weather women can serve as deacons in the church. Women have campaigned for years for a more prominent roll in the church. We know that facebook is popular, but get this, according to pew research, more americans look at the social media site than the bible. More than half of americans, 56 read their facebook feed at least once a week and that compared to just 37 of americans who read the bible weekly or daily according to gallup. Kind of a surprise. Finally, this video has got car experts buzzing. This is a prototype for chevys next High Performance camaro z28. This happened in germany, by the way, maria. This is caught on tape, it crashes through the guardrail in germany. This is a camouflage car as you can see, it quickly went off the track and a lot of buzz on the internet, theyre trying to figure out what kind of engine its got and how fast it can go. Didnt look that fast in the video. The z28 is going to debut at the Detroit Auto Show next year. Luckily its not next week.

Thanks at 3 a. M. West coast time to do your show, loving you for that. Maria how much money would you estimate is here . Youve got the biggest of the big, not to mention stars like ron howard. I would say u. S. , european, were offer a trillion dollars in assets, but we have Chinese Investment corp. Here, remember, theyve got about 1. 7 trillion. All told were somewhere in the 2 1 2 to 3 trillion in assets here represented. Maria congratulations, unbelievable. Thats a big reason why youre drawing a lot of high profile hedge fund managers, you and i had dinner last night. Its a great opportunity for people to interact with each other and learn from each other and bond with each other. Maria Caitlyn Jenner was hear and interested in hearing her thoughts on this bathroom controversy. Just a beautiful, sweet person. Maria and i had the opportunity to have dinner with her last night and she told us about her recognition of who she is and her discovery and the courage to help herself as she really is, her true self. Maria unbelievable. I thought it was really moving and i will say that i give her a lot of credit about this bathroom controversy in north carolina. I personally think its ridiculous. I spent the last 15 years working on human rights and gender equality, but also recognition of allowing people to live their authentic self, which is one thing i disagree with some of my fellow republicans. Everybodys for a Smaller Government except in our bedrooms, maria, they want a larger government in our bedrooms and bathrooms and guys, this is sort of ridiculous, lets knock it out. Maria and let me ask you about the Donald Trump Campaign because you joined Donald Trumps Campaign Finance committee. I did. Maria do you think that the Republican Party is going to coalesce around him . I do. I think they had a really good meeting yesterday and reporting about it all morning. Paul ryan is a terrific person and a great leader and he said something thats super meaningful, i dont want sugar coated unity, i want a real unity. And i think thats probably a deal maker so hes synthesizing now. We spent 90 minutes with cads candidate trump, and hes an allstar position, steve can. Maria and how is the Campaign Fund raising going . Well, i think he needs a half a billion. When donald and i talked about it, it was a half a billion and i gave him the reasons why. Steve set a goal of a billion and well do everything we can to get to that billion dollar number. Thats what governor romney and president obama raised last year excuse me, 2012. Maria and speaking of big money, a guest, larry somers. Not going to be the Economic Advisor for donald trump, but larry is a super smart guy, we love having him around. Maria and talking about the politics there were democratic talking points, but what larry is onto is secular stagnation. We cant get a print higher than 1 1 2 or 2 and he thinks thats the way the whole world is on the disinflationary, inflationary point of view, not a super lot the Federal Reserve can do. However, what steve moore and you were talking about a few minutes ago or maybe a half hour ago, that would be super explosive for the United States and it would end the specter of deflation. Maria hes taking taxes down, and you have to believe thats a market catalyst. What are your take aways from the conference, what are big investors can capitalism on the line. Pessimism. Theyre getting beat up. Maria they hadnt had good performance. Bad performance and high fees. We should have had some psychiatry lounges here, but we didnt because a lot of guys out here are upset and pessimistic. I think its a bullish counter indicator, maria. Maria you think because theyre so pessimistic they will go up . A lot of cash on the sidelines, 2. 7 trillion representative here and defensive positions for many of the people. So good news coming. Good news coming would be terrific for markets, i think. Any incremental good news will be positive. Any clarity on the election positive. Maria thats for sure. For six months well get clarity. No doubt. Maria congratulations. Terrific for being here. Go fox business go fox business . Maria oh, go fox business no wonder the ratings are soaring and beating the competition. Love it when she says it like that, bring it . Maria and tune in tonight at 8 p. M. Eastern on the Fox Business Network for anthonys special interview right here from salt.

The former president of mexico obviously had a lot to say about donald trump and he wasnt happy about it.

Dagen, the stories that Caitlyn Jenner was telling last night, i wont go into them because its chatham rules, she exhibited courage because she said for 65 years she didnt know who she was.
