The cause of the crash still under investigation, but Authorities Say Service Disruptions are likely for this mornings commute. In the meantime, President Trump heads to arizona today hours after laying out a new strategy for winning the nations longest word. The president announcing during a primetime address last night that he will not be pulling u. S. Troops out of afghanistan. Though he confessed his original instinct was in fact to pull out. Watch this. My original instinct was to pull out and historically i like following my instincts. But all my life, i have heard that decisions are much different when you sit behind the desk in the oval office. In other words, when youre president of the United States. America will work with the Afghan Government as long as we see determination and progress putrid however, our support is not commitment or a blank check. We will make common cause to any nation that chooses to stand and fight alongside us against this global threat. Terrorists come to take heed. America will never let up until you are dealt a lasting defeat. Every generation we are face down evil and we have always prevailed. We prevailed because we know who we are and what we are fighting for. Dagen although the president said he would not discuss specific troop numbers coming is widely expected to embrace the pentagons plan to increase levels by 4000 in addition to the 8400 americans already serving there. Im going to start with you. If you had to grade the president s speech last night, what would you give it . It would give him a b or a. Dagen thats exactly what i thought it would be. He spoke in terms of the meritocracy as opposed to timestamps and withdraw. When we look at the last administration, i felt that president obama didnt effectively connect with the generals on the ground. They are often identified that she had politicians who made decisions and didnt incorporate the military strategy the way it should have. When i look at this particular conference from President Trump, i was very, very impressed. One thing i wanted to read right and the teleprompter beginning to end. He learned his lesson from what happened with the charlottesville speech. Dagen i want to point out that he did, and we will get this in a second, this is not what i said on the campaign trail. This is not what ive been talking about. Here is how i came to the decision. He opened the address of the message of unity and he reminded people i understand why is there a risk. I understand what is said daycare and i want to speak to gentlemen, alex gonzalez, also the parent of this young medic, devin at fort bragg who is being deployed to afghanistan for the first time this weekend. These are people i just met in the airport and talk to and they feel they are supported by the president. I think thats wonderful in for anybody when youre staring military personnel in the eye, its a lot different than when youre talking to yourself in a vacuum. He really felt the gravity of the moment. I gave him to be come on gave him to be come on the highest ranking ive given him for anything throughout the campaign and the presidency. The speech made a lot of sense. The continuation in a lot of ways that the Obama Policies and he admitted that. This was a feather. General mattis said mcmaster coming to him insane this is not going to work. This is not a way to win the war. We cant leave afghanistan in a vacuum. Train to the options for the use of mercenary forces, private forces over this, which is backed by dunford, the joint chiefs of staff, mattis and mcmaster. 100 . Clearly the appropriate thing to do. To the bush era top of the way that these wars are won without the specific numbers and without what president obama put on everything ive got in a lot of trouble. This will be done by this time and you dont meet the deadlines. The main issue here is what does winning actually look like . Very few clear markers of whats going to be good enough for us to get out of there. No one wants american troops over there forever. I think it was very telling. I went back and listen to the speech a second time. This is an increase in the military force but also he pointed out the political solution is the way out of this, bringing the taliban, perhaps possible to have a settlement with the taliban. We need the assistance of india and pakistan. Calling out and now they can thats consistent with what hes doing with nato ally saying hes got to get more involved. To pay a fair share and make sure we are on the same page. Dagen kevin, i want your reaction to this because a critical part of your speech in particular was about denouncing hatred and bigotry. Lets listen to the president. When we open our hearts to patriotism, there is no room for prejudice, no place for bigotry and no tolerance for hate. The young men and women we send to fight our wars abroad deserve to return to a country that is not at war with itself at home. We cannot remain a force for peace in the world if we are not at peace with each other. Dagen kevin, this goes a long way after the upset based on the comments that saturday, but also on that tuesday. I think its a conciliatory Statement Given the fact that this nation is feeling right now. I gave him a b. On the speech last night are several reasons. One is i think what i talk about with pakistan, we need them to step up, especially because we have lots of money. To us, and fight this. Its actually coming around and realizing he needs to unite the nation. Dagen why did you give him a b . He mentions we are not going to nation build. We are going to kill terrorists. The problem is we cant just do bombs and bullets. We also need to work with pakistan and buildings. I heard that. We will talk about the military solution, but really the ultimate endgame is a political one coming to the table. I want to tell people what republican senator john mccain, what he said in response to that speech saying the president was now moving well beyond the prior administrations failed strategy of merely postponing the seed and then also i listen to Lindsay Graham on the Fox News Channel last night. He said he was proud and relieved and proud of the president and he did not make a political decision last night. Again, the president has gotten some major support from members other than rand paul. The only thing i want to get back to his hes talking about the most important thing is he wants to devote enough time, energy and resources to the military. We talk about people being deployed over there. A lot of people the military theme a sin, we dont have enough resources. We are not given the tools doing. I wouldve loved to sing and talk more about that where he gives them what they need. Trade to who will you the final word. Tonight this was a watershed moment for donald trump and that he was able to code not just the republican party, but also in the nation in general. This is the first primetime speech and i truly believe he nailed it. He brought back a lot of comments a lot of comments in the past. Moving forward he has to show improvement on this pathway. He does have a lot of people in his base who are none too happy about us. I thought all over twitter. Prominent people, what if we have an election for . Versus globalism, steve bannon war. Dagen outside the white house we will hear more from bannon. Stay on message Going Forward to a more primetime addresses and stick to this viewpoint you said so far about afghanistan. So much more coming up. Well bring you live coverage of the president s rally in phoenix arizona tonight starting at 10 00 p. M. Eastern time. Right here, major developments in the aftermath of the barcelona terror attacks. Johnson johnson ordered to pay up. Thats all for the latest verdict in the baby powder scandal. Dagen last week, terror attack in spain. Cheryl casone has the details. Good morning, dagen. Members of an islamist cell that killed 13 people in barcelona last week. The only one still alive.

Colin President Trump speech last night. Will division in washington weigh on markets . Joining us now is Advisory Group principal michael lee. Congressman lawmakers come back from recess. I said that the selloff last week was in large part because it looked like the more it looks like the agenda of avarice, the harder the markets take care. All the debate about how President Trump is less important to investors. Weve seen the selloff a couple times. Most recently when he fired jim comey and the leaks came out to the New York Times. What a lot of people are missing is the only way to get congress to act as threatened them with job security. You have 10 senators in terms dates. 20 republican congressmen in districts that hillary kerry. These people have to act or they have to find a new job. At think youll start seeing this come together. I wonder if the afghanistan strategy is an olive branch to the establishment if you will. So far it seems like the swamp is President Trump. Dagen we had the selloff in recent weeks, but how much our investors watching what is going on in washington on capitol hill when they come back from break . Very often you see these market swings on one piece of misinformation. Not a lot of people at work on wall street and not a lot of other news out there. How much is the market going to trade off, not just september, but even leading up to the end of the year. Very, very important. Nathan behind not even 73 of companies in 69 on the bottom line. You have improving fundamentals across the economy. Atlanta economy. Atlanta fed is saying 30 gdp growth in the Third Quarter could come in some. Beneath the surface, beneath the headlines you have a really good economic situation. When you look out with three assets of caspian zero, bonds which i think are extremely overvalued stocks. Dagen i know the 10 year yield closed yesterday at 2. 1 a percent or Something Like that which is incredibly low. A couple of things is the big market mover and i think you some multiples on the market traded. 18 times earnings to 21 times earnings. The fed coming out later this week with janet yellen talking in jackson hole. As long as the fed are accommodated here they dont make any sudden or rash moves, we dont think there will be another rate hike later in the year. Their Bond Buying Program will whittle down to even less than anticipated. Do you think that the next catalyst for the market . Right now people think its overvalued. Dagen is that the next catalyst for the market . I take the complete other side of that. I think we have seen Interest Rates down, governments and the banks restricting lending. If you look at the velocity, it is guided to a screeching halt. That is changing. As they slow down, if we do have a temper tantrum event, that would be it a buying opportunity. Thats an event that will happen at some point in the next couple months, maybe six months. I would say the fed moving towards normalization is a positive because it thinks can actually make a lot more money influencer more profitable, a lot more likely to take more risk and put stuff out there. We are so far away from where we were in 2007, 2008. I actually think the fed reducing the balance sheet, Interest Rates normalizing is a Huge Positive because savers will make more money in their accounts, more likely to spend more money. The next two or three will be stimulated for the economy. Dagen by the way come the kiwi is quantitative easing which is bond buying. The famous bond investor or steak income investor. Theres been some calls so i think if you look at where Interest Rates are in the future outlook of bonds, Interest Rates will go up in bonsall selloff at some point. Cash pays nothing in cash at 17 times earnings of 10 plus earnings growth, really not supervalu especially taking into account these are the cleanest valance sheets weve ever seen in the s p 500. I think we can go much, much higher in the s p 500. Ive been preaching about the risk in the treasury since 09. Michael lee, great to see you. Come back soon. Victory in afghanistan. We will have a clear definition that is the president s message. What does that actually look like . A closer look at President Trump strategy on the war in afghanistan. Blue apron, stopped to watch on why investors may have lost their appetite. Today, were out here with some big news about type 2 diabetes. You have type 2 diabetes, right . Yes.

How mcdonalds helps lava cake will grab a piece of the millennial pie. Eclipse mania hitting the us, the top moments from yesterdays historic event, futures showing gains in us markets, ever so slightly in the last half hour or so up 27 points. In europe gains in england, france and germany and in asia overnight, the major markets, the nikkei in japan, down 1 10 of 1 . To our top story this half hour rethinking the war in afghanistan donald trump and failing a bold new plan last night to achieve peace through pressure on pakistan and a focus on killing terrorists. America and our partners are committed to stripping terrorists of their territory cutting off their funding and exposing the false allure of their evil ideology. Terrorists who slaughter innocent people will find no glory in this life or the next. They are nothing but thugs and criminals and predators and, that is right, losers. From now on victory will have a clear definition. Attacking our enemies, obliterating isis, crushing al qaeda, preventing the taliban from taking over afghanistan and preventing mass terror attacks against america before they emerge. Dagen jim mattis is in baghdad to begin implementing the new south asia strategy. Sources say it will include sending an additional 4000 troops to afghanistan with 8400 us troops in that country. Joining me fox news military analyst jack keane, general keane, great to see you but especially this morning. What is your take on the new strategy . The president delivered a good speech because he conducted a major policy realignment less about troops and more a strategy. Strategically he placed afghanistan as a critical part of the overall strategy against radical islam which is a multi generational struggle extending beyond his presidency. Secondly he has taken a regional approach recognizing south asia consisting of three countries, afghanistan, pakistan and india. Houses 20 of the terrorist organizations in the world and two of those three have Nuclear Weapons which makes south asia a dangerous place. And when you focus on a strategy in afghanistan what he is telling us is i am going to deny safe haven to International Terrorists in afghanistan, period. I am not going to let another 9 11 event happen because of sanctuary and number 2 im going to stop the taliban and from overthrowing the government. He did not say im going to defeat the taliban and, he said im going to stop a telegram from overthrowing the Afghan Government and number 3, this is absolutely critical to the success of the strategy, i am going to stop pakistan from supporting the Afghan Taliban and in those two sanctuaries that reside in pakistan and it is more than what he said last night of housing these terrorists. I have seen the indisputable evidence that the Pakistan Military provides intelligence, operational oversight, logistic support, training and resources to the taliban and to conduct effective operations against the United States and nato and pakistan is supposedly one of our allies. This has been outrageous behavior for 16 years, president s of tried to do something about it. This will achieve that end. Dagen on that note, how do you put pressure on pakistan. What shape does this take . I was listening to you on the Fox News Channel last night. What are the signs we should be watching for . What does the us do in terms of our relationship with that country . We had been pulling resources from pakistan the last couple years. The resources dont have much impact on them. China can compensate for that, a close developing relationship with isolating them as a result, they have lied to us in our faces. I was telling Hillary Clinton when she was secretary of state about the details of it and she looked at me and said they lied to me every time i talk to them. I say put the evidence in front of them, shame them, let them know what we know. What is going to happen in my view is there is going to the other pressure put on them from other countries. They are a partner with nato, not a member of nato but they partner with nato and nato is fighting this war in afghanistan, the only war nato ever fought as a result of 9 11 attack on the United States. I think Rex Tillerson will meet with them and tell them we can do this easy or hard. We either stop this nonsense you have been doing or we will stop it ourselves. Donald trump didnt say that last night but in my judgment he applied it. The other thing pakistanis will note is the different level of commitment and moral will the president is expressing in his determination. Pakistanis have always believed the United States was not serious about pakistan, iraq had priority, obama wanted to get out and we were never serious so they supported valid and thinking this is the government i have to deal with. I think donald trump has an opportunity to convince him that that is not the case and we will see. Dagen one thing that struck me, the president spoke to those men and women serving in our armed forces and serving overseas and highlighted that but also the fact that he said my original instinct was to pool out, the decisions are much different when you sit behind a desk at the oval office and this was a shift for him in terms of what he said before but he is listening to his military leaders which is something president obama did not do. There was a mistrust between president obamas military leaders and i scratched my head why he didnt trust the because military leaders are loyal to the commanderinchief, dont always agree with him but will always be loyal. The president has demonstrated what i consider president ial leadership, he has done it twice. This is the second significant time on foreign policy, one is the shift in the middle east and commitment to challenge the uranians and radical islam, he spoke to 55 National Leaders telling them he is going to do that. I know from my own conversations with him that his instincts were why are we still in the middle east, two wars, trillion dollars, but he listens, put you put your finger on it. He listened to people who know more than the subject about him. This is the second time his instinct in policy have changed because he listens to people around him to know what they are talking about and we should be thankful for that. That is an aspect of leadership that is to be admired. Dagen i want to turn to the tragedy at sea, east singapore. The navy still searching for those ten missing american sailors after the uss mccain collided with a merchant ship monday, the second warship collision in the region in months, a top us admiral ordered a pause in Operations Worldwide spanning investigation that will include looking at whether hacking is involved. Admiral John Richardson tweet toed, quote, to clarify, possibility of cyber intrusion, sabotage, no indications but review will consider all possibilities. Your thoughts on this . Disturbing to say the least. Cyber espionage and cyber attack is part of the menu for Going Forward. The comprehensive view is needed. I know what is happening based on my contacts out there. The depletion of money we had, we are doing far less training than we used to do. It is no accident that the aviation incidents have increased. They are susceptible to more human error. Likely the same thing happening with preparation of semen in basic semen skills when they are at sea. This is the chief of naval operations, head of the navy holding this comprehensive study and it is wise that he is doing this to get to the bottom of it. The navy will get to the bottom of it i guarantee. They are not going to like the answer but the good news is they will do something about it. Dagen always great to see you, thank you for your insight, thank you so much.

Maybe they were legit in the United States. Dominoes had a lock on the market. Anytime your the dominoes mobile apps, please by this lava cake for anybody i didnt think there was one and do not expect you to have it. I had this conversation with my friend and went through the process. Dagen heres the problem with this story, having lived how long have you lived in new york city, did you grow appear . Born and raised. Dagen talking about ordering dominos pizza. You live in new york city. The policy going back to the mcdonalds story, a byproduct of a demographic assessment in terms of who likes chocolate cake and mcdonalds has been focused on innovations in food and fast food as what people like him i Love Chocolate cake and everyone sitting here loves chocolate cake, but this type of lava cake is different than we traditionally see in restaurants but it does have the ability or propensity to be successful but it would be great if we had sampled onset we could taste. Dagen i dont think they would travel well from soul but i will add when it comes to those turnovers, if you are not careful i look at that molten chocolate and i am sure it is 1000 . Americans love to sue for those kind of things, if it was too hot. Dagen a bummer. How many hot coffee suits are there out there . Dagen famous mcdonalds hot coffee, very good point. Coming up a coasttocoast party is what it felt like as people shared their eclipse moments. That excitement, we have some of the best snapshots from that historic day next. Should i stay or should i go there will be trouble if i say it is so dagen the event that brought the nation together, whether you were in the path of totality or not, so reason politicians joining in on the celebration.

A lot of traffic, people stopping in the middle of the street. We get to that video, watching, taking a minute of their day, stopping in the middle of the highway to see this rare event. I was walking down the street during the peak and people were sharing glasses having a moment in new york city watching the eclipse. Dagen do we have that image of jeff sessions, the attorney general . It was so cute. Donald trump was looking up at the sun without his glasses. Maria who didnt . A lot of people did. You cant help it. Dagen in this part of the country the sun was still shining. The issue is if you stare at the sun when it is in total eclipse and it is doing damage to your eyes and you dont know it but when you are looking up at a sliver of an eclipse in new york city you know you are looking at the sun. Incredibly silly for the president to do, dont do that. And right back on with your kids standing there. The most excited person if anyone, coverage, the time of his life, the chef having a blast, running to the breezeway. Running around talking to everyone about it, it was wonderful.

Dagen we covered your spots already. Donald trump heading to arizona for a Campaign Style rally in phoenix after last nights speech on winning the war in afghanistan. By following the heroic example of those who fought to represerve our republic we can find the inspiration the country needs to unify, to heal and remain one nation under god. One way or another these problems will be solved. I am a Problem Solver and in the end we will win. Dagen the president widely expected to embrace the pentagon plan to boost troop levels by 4000. Lets bring in alabama senator and a member of the Armed Services committee Luther Strange. Do you believe last nights speech was a turning point for the president in unifying at least the gop around his for an agenda . I think it was. Very pleased with the president s remarks last night and as a member of the Armed Services committee his commitment to winning, his commitment to American Security that message was well received. It could very well be a great turning point. Dagen a longterm veteran of the Police Department in new york city. So glad you are a gop senator, could you see a pro trump supporter from the beginning since day one . I have. Do you see this speech as something that had the ability to connect with people that were not Trump Supporters . I hope so. The thing i took away from it was his willingness to listen to our generals. We have a fantastic secretary of defense. People on the ground want to win it National Security and even though he took a different position when he was running, a very good sign he was willing to listen, learn and adopt a policy and our national interests. Moving forward what do you think the strategy should be in terms of connecting with the electorate. Right now trump is at a 30 approval. The way he connects is effective and i hope he will continue to do that. It was praise for the military and a strategy. On other issues, taxes, those focus on those and have a cogent plan and connected the people with that. I was wondering if you could share your thoughts about the upcoming rally in phoenix, the mayor of phoenix asked the president to delay the rally, still going, and more Campaign Style or take more moderate tone he had last night. He does like the rally format as a way to encourage people, it will be a thoughtful rally. And the other issues that we just talked about affecting peoples lives on the ground. We have so much to do in washington. Dagen the Trump Administration pushing for tax reform despite opposition from democrats, Steve Mnuchin said the president may keep the tax break for firms that create jobs that eliminated hedge fund managers, raising the debt ceiling, keeping the government open, do you think tax reform will get done by the end of this year . I certainly hope so. Are you going to get it done or not . You guys have the rain to do something about it. If i was in charge absolutely. I call it tax relief. That is what people need. If i have anything to do, my one vote in the senate will ensure that happens. Boots on the ground right now after this failed healthcare debacle, what is the sentiment going on when you talk to your constituents especially the election. I they president this he led with healthcare a more focused on tax reform, what are their thoughts on what happened with trying to repeal and replace the Affordable Care act. And 50 conservative republicans. I share that. We better produce for the people, not one specific issue but all the things we talked about the lack of action by congress. The president campaigned on an agenda people liked. A pro taxpayer agenda and that is what they want us to address. I hope you feel my frustration. I cant wait to get back to washington to get things done for the people. Dagen speaking of your constituents turning to Alabama Senate race a new survey in polling finds former chief Justice Roy Moore has nearly a 20 point lead over you. This comes after Donald Trump Endorsed you. Do you think, that run the Runoff Election on september 26th . I definitely think so. People what the agenda passed. From day one, the polls to say the least are speculative at this point. What we see in the numbers, we have to work hard and the next 6 weeks, that is what im doing on the ground campaigning and in washington to help the president get his agenda passed. John mccain, Lindsey Graham last night with their support for the president s speech and actions the administration will take on afghanistan but it does seem, i am reading into this, feels like a lot of these republicans do not want to produce success for the president. This is their way there is a separation and growing separation that they dont want the president and his agenda to win and ultimately that means they are not pushing for what is best for america. There may be one or two that have that issue going i wont comment on that but in my experience in times i have been on the senate, members of the Republican Caucus want results for the people. The american people, very difficult for us to accomplish. They follow through and address these issues. Hopefully will be there when we get back. I am curious to hear what your strategy is going to be for your election, what we are talking about as people are riled up about the healthcare debacle, talking about Donald Trumps leadership. It is that we 2person race, i will focus on my conservative record. From this and others, a record of accomplishment, for six years since i have been in washington. Voting for the president s agenda, and focus on what people noted the president into office to do. Solve realworld problems. That is my record of getting that done and what i am going to campaign on. I wish you the best of luck, interesting to watch how it unfolds. We havent talked about infrastructure, is this a key cog in the wheel on your platform . I see this part and parcel, it all comes together, critically important people, economy, safety, sorry we are so slow, certainly on peoples minds. I thought congress i have shocked we have not been able to do that so far. That is something people care about. Dagen even, nothing happening. Im a relative newcomer and the recess. And working night shift or whatever and not sure i can explain. Dagen good to see you, take care. Coming up, a commuter train injuries dozens in philadelphia.

After midnight, a conductor among the injured, treated and released, a spokeswoman says none of the injuries are lifethreatening but this crash happening just after midnight at the 59th street terminal.

Department store chains, the president is 43 years old, macys announcing they streamline their top management and consolidated merchandising, planning and privatelabel functions in one unit, they did cut 100 jobs. About 45 , struggling against amazon. Speaking of amazon there could be a drone war in the works between walmart and amazon. Walmart taking a cue from amazon applying for a patent for a blip to deploy the drones. We are mixed about what we think of it. It was as high as 1000 feet, launched human controlled and autonomous drones helping walmart cut costs by eliminating last mile shipping. Shares of walmart stocks rallied 15 in 2017. Any impact on the stock . Dagen megan kelly, drone delivery, hubble, beehive, blimp beehive, looks very similar. This goes to the heart of where amazon and walmart are at war after the jet. Com fight on omni channel and getting the experience of getting something delivered by a drone so this will heat up even further. You have defensive and offensive moves. I dont think it will happen but it is a marketing thing to let people know. Dagen where i grew up, smalltown america, small southern town, walmart is finally getting to know what it is like to have a competitor crush your business. All these smaller businesses across the country that were put out of business, hardware stores, Small Grocery stores, walmart is getting some comeuppance because the free market which walmart always preached. All the years of not paying people enough on top of it. Dagen part of what changed walmarts culture was shaming by many people in this nation. Right or wrong, now they pay people more. When you think about the fact there are people who dont raise the minimum wage but when it is 71 4 15 dagen Bernie Sanders is the one that pushed the 15 seattle and San Francisco and Hillary Clinton jumped on board. She was for 12 and got pushed over. I think walmart got a big comeuppance. Dagen how about leaving it to the state gig average fulltime employee makes 14 an hour. Coming up, high 13, double check that, stay with us and tell you what the number is. We are here to provide information. Tesla bonds tumbling over worries about company finances, the new trouble for the electric carmaker. We watched fixed income because we are nerds and it is a better indicator than equities and also overcoming financial fears, the steps to help americans move past their biggest money concerns. Hey, ive got the trend analysis. Hey. Hi. Hi. You guys going to the Company Picnic this weekend . Picnics are delightful. Oh, wish we could. But were stuck here catching up on claims. But we just compared historical claims to coverages. But we have those new audits. My natural language api can help us score those by noon. Great. See you guys there. We would not miss it. Watson, you gotta learn how to take a hint. I love to learn. Dagen financial concerns, a northwestern mutual, financial anxiety. Causing uneasiness and never being able to retire, living paycheck to paycheck and living in debt forever. Joining us to help conquer these fears, who do we call . Chris hogan, author of retire inspire, average retirement account balance for us workers 17,000 which to a lot of people sound like a lot of money. What is your solution . The big thing is to understand this fear of never being able to retire, fear is very real and the important thing is to take the right kind of action to alleviate those fears which we got to assess where we are versus where you want to be and start working on a plan that will actually work. One of the biggest problems we are addressing is fear, Everybody Needs to have the first initial step, to take down their apr or trying to do something to bet the ball rolling. What is your best advice, to take the first initial step . They can take many more but they are fearful of it. A very good point. The first step will sound different but there is a point. The first step is to the things youre going to do. What gets you excited . And it will motivate us more than fear can paralyze us. 60 of americans have 1000 of savings, how do you break that paycheck to paycheck cycle . That is one of the greatest sources of anxiety . We have found 76 living paycheck to paycheck and one check doesnt show up they have a financial crisis. What is your budget . What does it take to live on . By money leaks, the eating out, grocery shopping, unnecessary purchases, identifying those will implement some controls to protect your self and your budget. Dagen i think the first step is Financial Planning. One thing employees need is a step of Financial Planning. The other points you mentioned, they are true and accurate but if you dont start with a sound Financial Planning strategy all of this collapses. I would agree planning is important but we have to be careful with semantics. Financial planning means 5000 and you go on your way. I am talking about understanding income versus expenses so that is a budget. And get serious about it, those are the most important Financial Planning steps you can take initially. Dagen i want your take on this, people look at the lottery to solve their problems, the Powerball Jackpot the second largest ever 6 50 million, with mornings as well and that is what you have got. If you want to play, plan for fun. It is not playing for future financial security. It blue me away. We spent 73. 8 billion on lottery. That is more than movies, tickets, books, entertainment, 73. 8 billion so one of those things where i am concerned most people i spend the money they need on necessities on powerball tickets and that is dangerous, you need to be able to feed your kids and take care of your expenses, you want to stay in control. Dagen say that again. The worst thing that can happen for a poor person is to hit the lottery, 600 million. Because that is an extreme hit to the top and no way to maintain it. The toughest thing in my opinion is to maintain that. Dagen we got to run. Thinking you will hit the lottery by playing it every day, not just the powerball or Mega Millions but i am guilty of it even by scratch tickets a little too often. You have to be careful and stick to your plan and any money you spend you have to be willing to lose. Dagen chris hogan always great to see you, thank you for being here, see you again.

More from the nfl preseason ahead. And lets talk about a stroke of luck. The massive amount one family brought in with what they thought was a Norman Rockwell print. Not print, painting. Our top story this half hour, the last american baseball glove manufacturer from the little leagues to the pros. Most loves used for americas pastime are not made in america, but made in asia. With one exception. Workers at nakona just north of fort worth are still making baseball gloves by hand complete with an American Flag stitched into the inside. Joining me now is the president. Jeff, made in america, the agenda is a big part of the president ses agenda. What does this mean for your company and to you . Good morning, dagen. For us, its really were very proud to, obviously, be producing in the United States. But its really, were not producing here just because were proud, were producing because its a Good Business decision for us. Were a company that started many years ago, 1934, producing here, and weve developed a reputation for producing the highest quality, highest performing glove. Dagen jeff, how do the prices run . Again, the story is always, or the narrative that foreignmade products are cheaper just by their very nature because of the labor costs than those made in the United States. What about these gloves compared to ones made in asia . Well, theres no doubt our labor costs are higher than any of our competitors overseas. What we focus on is the highend market. And our prices range, they are expensive gloves, but players spend a lot of money, serious players or aspiring players spend a lot of money and time with their gloves, and theyre willing to invest in that, you know, hopefully long term and having that glove for a long time. So our gloves will range anywhere from 220 all the way up the, you know, 600 plus for a customized glove. Dagen jeff, i got caught on camera doing this, and i think anybody whos ever played baseball, i had my face in the glove because this is brand spanking new. The smell of a new ball glove is kind of infinitely amazing [laughter] so i was doing this. It wasnt because i have, you know, a pimple on my face. [laughter] no, theres nothing like the smell of leather and its, obviously, one of the first things you notice when you walk into our factory. We have people who come from all over the country to see how ball gloves are made, and thats one of the unique things we can do, being American Made. Not only do we provide what we feel is the best product, but after a player uses that glove for a while, they can send it back to us, and we can recondition it, relace are et, repad it, just give it some love. So we have not only that unique part of it, but we have people, like i say, who come from all over the country to see how ball gloves are made, and that smell of leather is definitely that you notice when you walk into the factory. Jeff, its kevin kelly. I think getting a new ball glove was one of my favorite things of all time when i was growing up. This is twofold for you, i had to put the baseball in here, id have some oil glove, put the belt around it, let it sit overnight. Do we have to do that with your gloves . As well as what is the biggest thing on the president s agenda that can benefit your business . Weve had Small Businesses talk about the Rising Health care costs, they would have loved Health Care Get passed because its gone up 21 , or is it tax reform . Whats the best way for you, for your business, to reinvest in it, the taxes or the health care . I guess on the first question in terms of, you know, ball gloves and how do you get it to be perfect just for you, it is a little different today. Todays world, as we all know, is a lot more, is much more about immediate gratification. So players are really looking for gameready gloves. And it really depends on the series. We have some gloves that are much more structured. Generally for high school, college, pro players. And then, you know, we also have gloves that are very gameready made with leathers like bison and kangaroo that are lightweight and easily so break in, that dont require maybe the leather belt that you talked about. [laughter] you know, as far as, you know, our focus is not so much on whos in toughs office and whos in office and what the policies are, you know, our focus is really on, you know, investing in American Manufacturing for the men pits. For the benefits. Were excited about our future. Were invest anything a new facility. Were looking to grow our line outside of baseball gloves into more leather lifestyle products, and thats all because of the advantages that we see in American Manufacturing. Unlike overseas production which, you know, i have experience in myself. For 15 years, i ran another Glove Company that produced exclusively overseas, and as much as theres advantages and theres a lot of skill overseas, its just very different than our production environment. And a lot of it comes down to the people, frankly. You know, at our factory theres operators that have been around for years, and theres not only is the skill level high, but theyre involved in the process much more than you would imagine all the way from the start of development coto really understanding what our business goals are, so thats what our focus is on. We have buffalo and steer hide represented here the set is, there you go. This is the american buffalo. Dagen darren has a question for you, jeff. Jeff, e just want to commend you on being a part of the American Dream and you are solidifying what Donald Trumps points are in connection with buying american and being american. Moving forward, how do you look to extend your roetter production your leather production to other items and at the same token keeping this an American Made product. Give me an example of some products youre looking to embark upon in the future. We launched this past spring a flip flop line that was a collaboration with another texasbased Company Called harimari using our ball glove leather. Were working on a number of other leather accessory items from leather baseball jackets to mens belts to womens handbags. Even some leather incomes for dogs, collars and leashes. Dagen oh, yeah. [laughter] is so were looking to introduce some of these items over the next several months before the end of the year. Dagen nice, jeff.

Theyre almost hijacking the stage but when you do have a platform of that stage, why wouldnt you make points that are important to you . Dagen i question the motive.

Maybe, so speaking of moving on, heading west President Trump going to arizona today, hours after laying out a strategy for winning the nations longest war in afghanistan. A prime time address Fox News Contributor covering the story from the white house. Doug, good morning. Good morning to you dagen as candidate donald trump saw afghanistan as a quagmire 17 yearlong war, the longest in u. S. History that stood no chance of any ultimate longterm victory, it was a situation that required he believed for the u. S. To take immediate action, in terms of withdrawal but now, after consultation with his National Security staff, and his generals basically changed his mind. All my life i have heard that decisions are much different when you sit behind the desk in the oval office. He said the consequences of an immediate withdrawal would allow same toxic brew of terrorists from taliban alqaida, isis and many other groups to gain strength the reason home to highest concentration of terrorist groups in the world, that u. S. Exit with same conditions produced plotting successful carrying out of 9 11 attacks, his speech introduce you immediate prays from one frequent weapcritic. I am proud of the fact President Trump made a National Security decision not political decision i am proud of the fact he listened to the generals, and most outside proud of the fact shows the world to stand to up reaadical condemnation. Senator rand paul writing on oped in hill wrote it lost its purpose a tenable idea to send more troops into that war, graham rushed fire on that one. I am going to fight senator paul tooth and nail to make sure that we dont lose an afghanistan like we did in iraq, it is just exactly what president obama did in iraq was to lead against a sound military advice. President singled out pakistan threatening to withdraw u. S. Funding to that nucleararmed country if it continues to provide safe haven to afghanistan terrorists. We have been paying pakistan, billions and billions of dollars at the same time they are housing the very terrorists that we are fighting. But that will have to change. And that will change immediately. No partnership can survive a countrys harboring of militants and terrorists who target u. S. Service members. Time for pakistan to demonstrate its commitment to civilization order and to peace. Reporter this morning the president heads to Arizona First going to yuma to meet with u. S. Troops, also o Border Patrol then phoenix a rally under way 10 pm eastern time protests groups are planning a massive counterdemonstration back to you. Dagen thank you for that reporting, from fox news, President Trump set to visit a Marine Corps Base in arizona day with u. S. Mexico border the visit to yuma ahead that have Campaign Style rally in phoenix scheduled 10 pm this evening doug was laying out the president s first visit to the state since he was elected, back in november. Joining us now, from phoenix former sheriff of pinel county arizona former congressional candidate, democrats in arizona including mayor of phoenix lambasting the president for holding the rally in the wake of violence in charlottesville, virginia and his response to that, do you think that this is a smart modify to hold this rally now . Absolutely. The president has accomplished much. Arizona has been in a sense a launching pad for the president and his agenda this has been ground zero. When you look at not just illegal immigration, crimes against citizens, and the fact that all the dlaugz have been coming into United States opiates heroin throughout every state guess where it is coming from from mexico no longer pakistan they are growing opiates not just marijuana not am amphetamine opiates secure border isnt just to stop Illegal Immigrants it is to stop this drug smuggle that is destroying america. Lets get back to what the president is going to say tonight. And does. The reaccepting they are going to be protesters there there will be people all over twitter that have nothing but hate for the president , i understand that, but it comes down to the tone, that the president uses, and him sticking to the message part of when you are laying out there. Absolutely. But is your concern that he starts shooting from the hip again, and he goes off course and he doesnt message doesnt again as he did last night attempt to unite the country, on these issues that we all support. Reporter , i believe the United States even though there is a lot of division there is a lot of o emotion the president is very popular here in arizona let me make that clear. Some of his highest Approval Ratings in the country are right here. And i think that he is going to lay out not just about immigration, and he is going to yuma for that partly for that purpose as well because that has been the most secure part of the border historically. But also to talk about what he did last night afghanistan, i am a are tired army officer i served a tour in iraq i dont want to be in afghanistan, the president makes it very strong argument that it is much better for us to stay there rather than leave, because it means trouble for the United States in future, our world our security is changed forever, we have to understand that, so the president is going to talk about that, going to talk about enforcing the law, which is already changed we have already seen a 70 decrease in illegal immigration across all of the borders you are going to have critics going to have democrats that are screaming, and will say anything but the president is very focused and he has to remain so in order to lead our country. Dagen paul, darren is here has a question. I am glad to your like you i am a like you i am a former army officer in addition was a lieutenant nypd i generally understand the connection with securing the border i believe donald trump is a firm proponent in securing the borders, however, when you take into consideration, char, sheriff joe possibly receiving a pardon from donald trump do you agree with that at this stage. I think too early quite frankly, mike nobel pollster in arizona, showed 50 of san dieganance against that only 21 support it, it is too early president should wait until there is a sentence he is 85 years old, this is misdemeanor not going to jail why pardon him i dont mean to cut you off i understand i think that is great do you agree that the at the overarching principles of the Fourth Amendment should always be applied next with stopping and seizing individuals . What Police Officer citizen would be against that . I totally all right. So safe to say you are in agreeance with the application of Fourth Amendment so do you agree, that sheriff joes, i want to say his policies, were staunchly against the Fourth Amendment . No. You have this was a policy at the time. Of obama administration. To not have local county state Law Enforcement help and enforce on the immigration issue, so here this is this is a contempt of court ruling so he has been founded guilty of a misdemeanor contempt of court and so the president i dont believe he should pardon sheriff joe at this time he should wait until a sentence is issued by the judge, and likely only a financial fine, but sheriff should just pay it the president should not and then pressure Political Capital on issue like about this so emotional let it rest a few days that is my advice to to respectfully let it play out do not pardon him at this time. Dagen good to see you. Thank you for weighing in on that, we will , of course. Dagen see what happens great to have you with us, this morning, stay tuned to fox business we will cover the live rally tonight, President Trumps rally in phoenix, arizona 10 pm eastern time.

Dollar against basket of rival currencies ahead of meeting in wyoming friday what does that mean if kevin kelly pointed out today the dow the dollar down 7 this year, joining us now is wells fargo investment senior Global Equity strategist scott what are you expecting to hear from fed chair janet yellen. I dont think this is going to be all that exciting, of a jackson hole visit this time, because i think really what market wants to hear is what is the fed going to do in 2018 they hinted going to do three hikes clearly bond market at least in my opinion thinks three hikes in a modest growth economy headwind i dont think 220, market equity market looking for comments about 2018, i dont think we are going to see any strong dollar comments, you know really, all in all, usually tr currency market is volatile i am sure ecb is hearing a lot from exporters in eurozone about the the your aro being strong, so really it hasnt moved that much i dont think we are going to hear a strong dollar statement. Kevin kelly one of the things that surprised me over the last few weeks, was the minutes from fed the talk about how they cant calculate inflation right thinking about revisit howing they addressed inflation what are your thoughts on what came out on that are you going to see guidance oem out this week from jackson hole in inflation regard. I think pretty it is tough i mean lets face it this news weve had lately over the last three or four months i mean softening inflation youve got core pce, 1. 5 , i wrote one pager couple wooeshs ago that was we are miles away from fed 2 , core target i think we are, so i dont know if necessarily measuring it wrong i just think we are in very low inflation environment i dont see that changing any time soon, and our work really is we look out through 2018, suggests that you know you are going to see cpi for instance you know probably 2 this year, and maybe just a touch higher next year, and if you look at a 45, 50year average on that is closer to 4 1 2 no matter how you cut it probably just about no matter how you measure it, inflation is way below what is considered normal and i think going to be there for a while. Dagen scott are investors under estimating do you think the potential congress fouls up in september raising debt ceiling with keeping the government open, i guess the most dire thing for the markets would be if they fumbled the debt sealing increase also a budget tax reform are the markets factoring in that Congress Might not get anything done. I think the market really and i would argue this is really mostly since the election even, i dont think they are pricing in a lot of progress on the trump agenda, i think for us we expected nothing this year in terms of fiscal push out of washington i think it is fading from maybe early 2018 into something later, and i think the markets really not paying a heck of a lot of attention to that but we do need fiscal push i think to get this economy going, keep us out of recession lets say in 2019 or 2020. But you know i dont think the markets pricing in much there, at all and i think rightfully so because it is just you know, congress is pretty you you you dysfunctional right now Corporate Tax reform cuts nobrainers we cant even make progress on that, so were not real optimistic that were going to see a lot out of washington. Dagen thanks. Have a good day guys. Dagen i am just kidding with you thank you so much coming up Johnson Johnson ordered to pay nearly half a billion dollars, in a baby powder lawsuit the bombshell verdict against the Company Straight ahead teaming up to tax reform how republicans are reaching across the aisle to democrats to get the job done.

Tuesday, august 22 top stories 8 30 a. M. On eastern time President Trump getting good reviews for speech on afghanistan, last night. The commander in chief hoping to carry that momentum as he pushes forward with his agenda. Including tax reform. I would say one hundred percent committed to getting it done.

Johnson johnson ordered to pay up, the fallout, from the latest verdict in its baby powder scandal. Plus millions saw clips some ignored scientific advise dont look at sun without special glasses including commander in chief many are complaining about an eclipse headache, that is ahead. To top stories battle for tax reform as President Trump pushes forward with agenda, republican lawmakers calling on democrats to come to the table to get things done. Unfortunately today our democratic friends have a different view of this issue. And theyve pretty pretty clearly announced they are not interested in participating. What we intend to try to accomplish comprehensive tax reform brings rates down to make america more competitive. Dagen joining us former ceo of best buy bret anderson, do you think we are going to see tax reform this year . We had scot on a while ago said markets dont expect it. I think that is true. And i think it is it is a long shot for the reasons talking about in terms of getting a political agreement especially the rates because there is also this it is dispute in terms of what that rate is i think largely strong consequence Small Business tax reform would be a real boost to the economy but being able to get that through getting it people who comree on what that particular level should be, and then trying to work across party line is obviously very, very difficult, but i would argue it is really important to American Economy weve got so many things moving in the right direction, job creation, income gdp growth Customer Confidence time to put stimulus in the economy assures that continues to grow continues to get better i think would be highly productive to do it right now but political hard to see it happen. Do you they economy could geoff from tax cuts if we are not getting tax reform do you think could be a stimulus similar to what president george w. Bush did do you think that would help the economy if they cant get tax reform done. Yeah i think any kind of stimulus, again, unless too extreme and winds up causing deficit issues that are that are damaging, with the kind of momentum anything that pushes that direction makes it make more incentive to get into the marketplace, and try to grow your business try to do something aggressive, which is good for the macroeconomy, and definitely good for particularly for peoples income tax i think the core thing that Americans Care about. Jesse here, curious what you think about the Corporate Tax rate before individual tax cuts that is something that i think democrats could get onboard with not exactly the Percentage Rate that a we should be can you go to Corporate Tax rate what do you think if that could get done the impact for economy also President Trumps agenda faith of 2018, 2020 . I think it would be great for the economy because you make American Companies even more competitive on a global basis, and you take a place that has been essentially a negative for American Companies you turn that into something that is positive, youve already got as i mentioned earlier sort of sometime tative environment puts a substantial stimulus very, very good for scompli good for trumps agenda the problem trying i think you probably find privately a lot of democrats would even agree with that. Yes. What it should be a couple out there, for sure a number 09 moderate policies working out pretty well for everybody across the board i even heard rahm imanuel on a podcastover weekend waxings no tollically about days in 90s worked with john kasich to get through crime bill that is where we are democrats might Say Something to you privately, but when it comes down to brass tax walking the talk they are not doing jackall to help americans know you did you are not in not in d. C. Yeah i think the environment at least what i experienced the environment is so toxic dialogue that building any kind of bridge or even having a dialogue that goes to building bridges harder than it was it does make 90s look nostalgic. We are at a point if you are sitting in a group of people, who have mixed political ideologies you say i really hope the trump agenda can get punished through, in terms of progrowth policies, people will look at you and go you are a nazi what is where we are if you say anything in agreement with President Trump you get called names. I agree with you. I am a strong proponent of tax reform, however we look at cantankerous relationship between executive and legislative branch next with Health Care Reform didnt get done weigh look at we look at republican house, senate white house, what is the Silver Bullet to get this gone . Now, you being a fortune 500 ceo, what do you think the answer to these three two parties, coming in to get this thing done . Well i think health care is different because, you know what i do with health care, it has a negative consequence some part of the community that i dont think it is true in terms of tax reform so i think it is it is a lot easier in abstract to see tax reform agreed to, but were going to have to find some kind of bridging dialogue that can begin to exist, i am a huge proponent of the checks and balances of our system making it hard to do things were government i dont think a bad for that to be the case i do think weve got to find some place, so we can start to bridge that dialogue there has o to be some understanding on part of the general public as to what the benefit is going to be that is hard to do in a toxic system. Shifting to state of retail a rough few months for target, walmart, doing all they can compete with amazon where do you think things are headed at this point. Generally retail sales up almost all going to online sales and i think one of the great long term things is conventional retailers are going to have to get a lot better in terms of what they deliver to customers to compete and i think that pressure is kind of working out you are seeing Creative Things out of target, walmart retailers, and they haveing advantages wall mart billed, dr. Centers in all local communities retailers have got it there with stores i think you will see creativity hopefully emerging for Retail Sector they have got to break off the circumstances they are in. You think best for Management Companies of publicly traded retailers to come out say listen dont expect any margins weve got to compromise that going to revest in that is best from short prices across you know, that is i obviously i dont think it makes any sense for them to start price wars, but i think any retailer has got to be competitive with online channel, and whatever that takes you have to structurally do as retailerfying out how to do that sustain that. So i think that is necessary, but i you know i have also watched best buy has gotten very competitive online channel done very well so i dont think you necessarily are going to impress earnings you should do that. Best buy i go to buy a printer one on display say can i get this printer they say no, we dont have it in stock then dont pickup truck it on floor. My last experience at best buy. As a former ceo yes. [laughter] i know i know. I couldnt agree with you more. I am sure things have come up to you that do that all the time i went into buy this i am not running the company well, i still care a lot about the company but i cant i cant help it. Thank you so much, equivalent of a doctor you go to any doctor, even if podiatrist, and you know does this look infected thank you so much good to see you brad anderson, President Trump caught glancing at eclipse without glasses on Stuart Varney will weigh in on that moment in the sun, next, and earnings in focus again this morning, on wall street, medical devices make a medtronic shares are lower by about 2 1 2 , little more this morning, after posting nearly 10 gain in quarterly profits we will break down those numbers, next.

Dagen Johnson Johnson being ordered to pay a record 417 Million Dollars to a los angeles woman following a lawsuit over iconic baby powder Nicole Petallides on the interior at New York Stock Exchange with details. Januarys johns ohnson johnd to pay out say they are appealing this one the largest payout, of the most recent that is for sure, the stock this morning, pretty much flat, but this is 417 Million Dollars verdict buy the jury there have been others st. Louis missouri woman awarded 110 back in 2012, three others prior to that that odeed to up about 307 million the idea here is that Johnson Johnson didnt for warn or give warning that baby powder could cause Ovarian Cancer they said that is not the case, and that it was labeled appropriately based on their studies, this will continue on there are thousands of litigations lined up for the story right now flat this morning, for Johnson Johnson. Then we move on to dicht sw, designer shoe warehouse foot locker to some companies have not done well lately foot locker down 30 , the dicht sw up, first positive since 2015 lower markdowns, the sales on the rise, they have been using more technology, so this one is a real winner today, 1. 1 billion a winner nice jump there. Thank you nickel we point out that is, i think, why this verdict in the Johnson Johnson baby powder case is shocking is because the Scientific Evidence simply is not there, it is extremely mixed on whether this type of baby powder, by the way, call calc has not been used in baby powered doestain asbestos since 1970s again, the basis for Johnson Johnson fighting back on that question sneaking a peek at clips without protective glasses, the Washington Post doesnt seem over the moon about this decision. Joining me now is the host of varney company, Stuart Varney, all outrage. About laughable. It is laughable. I literally got up i go through all news on front page of the Washington Post, at least the electronic digs trump briefly gland at sky without protective glasses can you imagine that .

I want to move to america Opioid Crisis tightening grip on teenagers after years of declines teen deaths from drug overdoses on the rise death rate between 15 and 19 overdosing on drugs more than doubled from 1999 to 2015 this is according to new research from the cdc. Researchers say opiates the chief culprits behind the spike, you said you like to see you see patients like this every day, but we talk about potential solutions but what do you think is one way to attack this. Difficult problem people say we can give there is couple medications methadone, long term or a longer dose instead of hetch roin, fast acting a quick acting medication so you get longer acting medications, bud you are trading one drug for another, so that is not really a great situation. So the best thing for these teens is really counseling, and you any prescription into play i was lieutenant nyicht pitchd i have seen people prescribed opioids. A consideration i think that does happen overall i dont think that is the biggest problem, you know we have basically late 90s started using pain as vital sign treating pain as much as possible, then in 20,000, came out said medications objectiondone oeks oxycodone written as prescription really not addictive a lot of at that time doctors side okay this is great we can give you paper medication not worried about patients being addicted, then, in the early late sorry mid 2000s, we started having these surveys right jacob did surveys, patients, and they coupled that to reburstment problem with hospitals, doctors saying if patient not satisfied as they dont have they have a lot of paper going to say not satisfied what satisfies them giving pain medication, reimburse better the perfect storm. Now getting the word out should you not keep prescriptions at home if you have them you need to hide them. Right. You need to hide them from kids, because it is very this is biggest problem the kids get aho dont get prescriptions usually and often dont go out and get he them on streets get them usually from somebody they know that is our adults that is our last thing keep them safe.
