Infrastructure spending. Dont you wish you would listen to the kids when they told you about streaming . Netflix hits 116 a share. Friday almost summer, Varney Company is about to begin. Thrill is on the way that is as a you can tell the thrill is gone bb king he passed away age of 89. Were remember hes a blues legend well remember him playing his music throughout this program. He was good. All right check out the big board please. Where are we as we start out this friday morning we have a gain but. Aunt much. 2 points higher 82854. S p 500 hit all time record up this morning. Not much. But that is up there, isnt it . Now look at netflix hitting an all time 616 earlier. 615 now. Up 70 this calendar year today way up on talk that it is going to get into the china market were watching netflix for you. Price of roll royal shy of 60 a barrel. Gas up a little bit over not. 269 as your national average. A change in cheapest gas in america now 196. It is up sinclair station in large pole, nebraska thought we would tell you that. Abc news ang or cor stephanopoulos will not moderate a debate last winter and didnt disclose a contribution to the Clinton Foundation even though he was covering it. He apologized for his omission only the air this morning. Listen. I want to address some news you may see about me. Over last several years ive made donations to dozens of charities including Clinton Foundation. That were a number of potential record but i should have made on air when we covered the foundation. I now believe that the directing personal foundation to that donation was a mistake. Joinings us now author it have clinton inc. Daniel. Now let me get right to it. Heres my opinion how can this man play any role in election coverage for abc running up to 2016 . Well it will be really hard. I mean he lost a lot of trust. But thing is we shouldnt be surprised that a former aid to bill clinton is giving money to bill clinton ride he had been in the clinton orbit for many year this should not comes a surprise that perhaps he might have a tilt of bias in favor of the clintons. Tilt in bias in is a landslide for heavens sake. Saying we shouldnt be surprised hes a little bit bias turns out a lot more than that when he interviewed he should have acknowledged that a he was a clinton aid going after him for being a bush aid. Clinton aid and helicopters to give money to the Clinton Foundation and a lot of it too. To me, it is a reflection on the entire establishment media which is downing the middle. It is not down the middle. The way they cover the stories and stories they cover shows a clear, bias to the left. Amity too far out of line on this . Not at all i agree flee. Nbc for instance they didnt give money. They gave money to the clintons they paid Chelsea Clinton for years to be a special correspondent something she wasnt equipped to do or good at. Look at cbs bob barnett, his wife works for cbs. They have the whole media is corrupt in this sense. They cant covert clintons properly and that is a huge problem for Mainstream Media and we cant trust networks in any of their clinton coverage. But you have missed something out here. Reverend al sharpton is here bona fide newsman anchor at nbc he is but i dont think he should be. Yeah look at Chris Matthews he used to work for jimmy carter. His defense hes not exactly covering jimmy carter anymore. Not that much at least these people are ever cog people that they have connections to that they have connections with i think that is what is damaging about it. That is what is is corrupt about it. One last thing. Sorry to keep interrupting you but does this damage Hillary Clinton . It doesnt damage Hillary Clinton, shell be okay. It makes her actually look okay right even a mainstream person like George Stephanopoulos seen by millionings every day adopting to her cause. But shows corruptness of it that shows theres tat George Stephanopoulos on an evening show and he said thing to the thats correct people give to the Clinton Foundation hoping to get something in return. Stands to reason, what was George Stephanopoulos hoping to get in return . Since he knows very well that that is how it works . I dont think he can play a role in abc coverage of the 2016 election but we shall see. Daniel thank you for joining us appreciate it. Thank you. Thank you. To the economy on whether were in a recovery or not, you are not feeling in latest fox news poll 60 of you feel like the country is still in recession. Mary is here from the wall street Journal Editorial Board why do so many people 60 is a big number. Where do we feel luke it is a recession . Three big reasons stuart. First of all were in a 2 economy so were not creating a lot of jobs ab and people have dropped out of the work force because there arent jobs for them. Two wages are stagnant youre not el tooing very good about money in your pocket, and thirdly, the people who have stocks. That is not every american. The middle class up class in america. Poll is how we feel. Not whether the economy is in recessioning. But i noticed today that that wall street journal has a panel of economists they think that economy contracted my. 3 in the First Quarter of the year. Theres a forecast that it only grows. 7 in the seconds. This has been the problem with the obama economy. Right we get a little acceleration and then we fall back again. Because businesses dont want to spend money or invest or take risks. Not confident in the future. But were also not letting them take those risks because washington is layered them with red tape and taxes of uncertainty. Mary welcome back per the entire hour. Just 15 minutes. This is it. Very, very sorry there. Appreciate the invitation, but thank you. Today weve got the dow now up 7 point. Okay so were beginning a little bit of a move. I think that is a record higher story will weather it is today or closing but not sure. 18259. Now today first of the victims in amtrak derailment laid controversy regardless the left continues to use it to call for more funding for infrastructure. Now the president is on action. Listen to this. A growing country with a growing economy. We need to invest in the infrastructure that keeps us that way, and not just when something bad happens leak a bridge collapse or Train Derailment but all of the time. That is what great nations do. Mary your thoughts on this. Any money to spend taxpayer money. Liberals love to do this health care, Public School least efficient parts of our Economy Parts of the economy where theyre spending our money and not liting private sector into it. I think it is disgraceful that the president doesnt wait to find out exactly what happened in this crash, and take a real look at by the way, the 6 billion dollars that amtrak has what invested other the last decade that is between federal state spend and stimulus spending they love to spend money but they dont like to look at the consequences of that. Not to mention, efficiency of government when you do give it the money to do a job. A. M. Just not convinced that they do it well. Exactly look at last year amtrak 1. 1 billion in net loss when we have an example of a successful railway all onboard florida privately funded and serve routes that people want to use. Why not this northeast corridor of amtrak prioritize it give us good service dont put the taxpayers behind it. Silent mary glad you could stay. Now followup on that story airfare between new york and d. C. Have gone up. I mean way up since train crash. Lauren simonetti here with the details lauren. If you need to fly from new york to washington d. C. This weekend all i have to say is good luck. Earlier this morning flights were available starting at 700 dollars topping out at 1300 bucks that for nonstop coach detective from laguardia to Reagan National if you travel that route. You know that is at least triple the average price. But at this hour, almost none of those flights have available and cheeps i found was 856 round trip. Okay some carriers aiming to cooperate travelers delta and america have added two flights. Delta has increased the size of the plane that it has using but limited options to get to new york to d. C. After that fatal am track derailment. Buses and trains are full. Always little car but question were asking right now, is this price gouging, or is this the free market at work . Lets ask mary. It is a free market at work. Supply and demand a lot of demand. Limited supply, the price goes up. What do you think of delta using planing and adding routes and unitessed not doing either . I dont know. Im not sitting in United Office but do they have those . Not specify. People who want the service have to pay for it same as uber works with high demand with human body for price goes up. People who really want the cars and need cars get the cars. I wont say it is price gouging but airlines do mother here considering circumstances. Thanks everyone how does he change issues. Were talking it be. Look at this. You asked for more Varney Company yes you did. Some of you did. Were giving it to you starting june the first well be moving to 9 a. M. Eastern going all the way through till noon. Watch out sports fans, a whole extra hour of your favorite Financial Program coming your way. Clear your schedule. Set your dvr. Big deal. vo rush hour around here starts at 6 30 a. M. On the nose. But for me, it starts with the opening bell. And the rush i get, lasts way more than an hour. announcer at scottrade, we share your passion for trading. Thats why weve built powerful technology to alert you to your next opportunity. Because at scottrade, our passion is to power yours. Get flat, that is the obvious answer to where is the market now. Dead flat dun a fraction that is it. Look at Keurig Green Mountain pushing back a rollout for the new cold brewing machine pushing back to next year. It is expected that that machine will cost about 300. Someone on wall street thinks that is a little expensive and that stock price is a 52week low down 8 . High per profit witness sorry lower profits a at nordstrom unchanged. Time is money. 30 seconds three stories for you but were watching, a woman fired for deleting an app on her work phone that was using gps to track her movements. Shes suing her exemployer were going to talk to her lawyer. We only get 4 of our energy from wind energy but they get subsidies im annoyed by that but jeff flock says i should not be. Hes going to make his case. The fight that everybody is talking about. Mitt romney spending into the wing are Evander Holyfield. Hes going to be with us. Look at that. That look it is ridiculous hes with us. Guy on the right is with us next hour. And now this, bill oreilly taking president obama to task forhis latest attack on fox news listen to this. Now some octobered to president singling out fox news. Not me. President has a beef with us you want to hear it. I would like to talk to him about poverty. However Dishonest Media immediately took up remarks with glee. Yeah i think that is true. Fox news contributor katy joins us. Do you think that president has a point not in attacking fox news i dont think that is an issue it is not okay not an issue. [laughter] but in terms of the negative portrayal of poor people not that we do it but maybe in the media theres that feeling of a negative portrayal of that does he have the point right . No, i think that is actually a false distraction from the actual issue here, and that is Big Government policies and whether they benefit the poor. When the president accuses fox news or anyone else of dem nicing poor hes not just talking about his policy but policy of progressive since the war on poverty started more than 50 years ago has failed to keep people out of poverty. When you look at the numbers here, you have a Record Number of people all of labor force. That certainly doesnt help the poor who are looking for jobs. You have the number of people who are looking for homes at at the lowest point since 2007. When you take a look at the Record Number of people on food stamps that is real war on poor here putting them into a system that they cannot get of because it doesnt allow theming to escape through economic opportunity. The president also saying that the media needs to change the way it covers the news. Roll that tape again please. Were going to have to change how our body politics thinks which means we have to change how the media reports on these issues. Do you remember couple of years ago when there was an equal time was under discussion . Remember that . The left was not happy about talk radio which was dominated by conservatives, and bring back the equal time doctrine. Do you think to the back the doctor that is right. Do you think in the bask his mind the president wants to do Something Like that . Of course he does. President has never been happy way that press covers the white house even when it has been favorable. President needs to realize that this south america. This is not russia and the press doesnt you know, belong to the government or shouldnt report ways things in the way that the government or white house wants to just because he thinks that they should be shaping a certain narrative. I think that his attitude that hes expressed is something weve seen before and seen it reflected in his lack of transparency and deliberate targeting of reporters dont forget that the administration has tried to intimidate reporters into covering things the right way or not covering them at all. Whether that is by tapping phone lines of reporters and their parents even. I mean this administration really had a serious war on journalism not just about the president says the press should cover things differently but theyve taken out of the very serious action against the press as a result of their ideology. He has a thin skin. Dont think he likes it at all. Great no he does not. Not good for a president i would say. no. Thank you so much for joining us have a great weekend. You too. Dairy queen dropping soda from their kids meal menu, i say helicopter parenting in this day and age go a little bit too far. My opinion. Melissa francis wait for it on the way in. Storming down the corridor shes going to tell me why im wrong. The world is filled with air. But for people with copd sometimes breathing air can be difficult.

Blew an amp. But good nights. Sure,musics why we do this,but its still our business. We spend days booking gigs then weve gotta put in the miles to get there. But its not without its perks. Like seeing our album sales go through the roof enough to finally start paying megs little brother i mean,our new tour managerwith real,actual money. We run on quickbooks. Tha ts how we own it. Zard and other various things supposedly Unhealthy Foods removing soda from its kids meal menu. Melissa francis mother of two is with us. What is going on here . A little soda here and there does nothing wrong with it. I would be first to say that a soda with every meal is a terrible thing. First of all theyre just sort of hiding it off to the side theyre offering you water milk and juice. But you can still request a soda seen this at mcdonalds. Truth of the matter in my opinion is that soda industry has a really big problem because my kids are five and eight theyve never tried soda not because ive kept it away from them baa they think it looks weird. Carbonated brown beverage theyre like why would i want that. I dont like it that much anymore. I used to. We dont have it in our house when they see it out their friends dont drink soda. Soda industry has a huge problem with their next generation of buyers. I do see that. But why are restaurant chains trying to push us around and what we have the freedom to buy with our money. I think you have the freedom to buy it and responding the fact that people are trying to be healthier and that so many parents my age are not giving their kids soda so why offer it only the kids meal menu right now. They dont necessarily want. Sugary beverages are material for you. I dont care what Warren Buffett has to say. That is irony what were talking about right now pushing coke to the side and Warren Buffett is largest shareholder i believe individual. I have one more for you. You feelly strongly about with one babies born to low income phones are using smartphone and tablet byes age of 2. With respect see anything wrong with that quite frankly group do. I would have said theres good applications kids can learn from. A problem when theyre glued to it all of the time has to be watching. One hour a day. We dripped electronics from our children one day to have two boys both in their ipads looking with hand me down aye fads from us. I lost it i said that is it. It is other im sick of this youre glued to this. Cant be healthy it has been two months, heaven they read, they read real books. Old fashion booked like we used to have. They play board games together. Play more ac were happier household. I said originally a monday month and keeps extending but not rewarding their Good Behavior but that is okay. But i dont know at some point im not promising theyre never getting back because somebody will see me now on an airplane with the ipad theyre going to bust me, and that is fine. Im not say forever but for now this is really working for us. Theres something to. , i mean, just this glueing to technology and the electronics is a little crazy. Were doing it as adults, look you have got yours. Okay okay this afternoon im with my two of my grandchildren. They will have their screens i dont sigh newing wrong with it because theyre learning all aft time that very readers at a very young age and thinks through because the tablet challenging them to think at the same time a close family. Lots of interchange within this family. Theyre not learning all of the time with it youre kidding yourself if you think that. We tip away to screen time. You can be entertained a slippery slope. When you limit the time you to really put a time or on and say we did that for a while one hour heres your hour you have to give it up afterwards taking it away has been easier than i thought. What of to say. Glued to television when i was a young man. Everybody said youll turn out bad. Look at me. Let that geez by. Too easy. What a guy. Up next a veteran wounded while serving who started her own business and shes the vet entrepreneur of the year shes got a great story to tell it to us after this. The pursuit of healthier. It begins from the second were born. After all, healthier doesnt happen all by itself. It needs to be earned. Every day. Using wellness to keep away illness. And believing that a single life can be made better by millions of others. Healthier takes somebody who can power modern health care. By connecting every single part of it. For as the world keeps on searching for healthier. Were here to make healthier happen. Optum. Healthier is here. Here at td ameritrade, theyre always working. Yup, were constantly making thinkorswim better. Like a custom screener on your desktop, that updates to all your devices. And you can share it with one click. Wow.

For all the confidence you need. Td ameritrade. You got this. It is still a go nowhere friday morning that is very tiny loss 12 points down on index that measures 18,239 not much action. Look at weaker sales disappointing forecast, dont do that. Down she goes 14 . We always tellout about prying gasoline. Cheapest gas a buck 96 in large pole nebraska a long way to get cheap gas. Document of veteran afars has been wasting if taxpayer money about 6 billion a year. Things got heated at a house hearing yesterday. Roll that tape. Didnt you have a gut check . When these allegations came up even though va has been operating illegally all of these years while it is on your watch that something in your gut says you know what, we have to stop this. This is wrong illegal activity. Did that ever dawn on you that this is illegal affect. Went on from there charl is with us cold dead hand of government fin efficient bureaucracy strikes again. Charged with leaving va paters in long line and some as a result dieing from that. You know, weve got a new va ahead this year. Here we go again potentially 6 billion annually has been misappropriated misspent, but theyre doing basically no Good Contracting sort of a gist of that memo that was coming in to congress saying look ive been watching this. Happening 35 page memo misappropriating, and it is against federal law if it approves to be true. The va is going to investigate it but it is true. Prioritize it you give every veteran a voucher to spend extra on health care. What is wrong with that . You have a Government Agency i dont think that is going to happen. Youre a brilliant man we all know that on a daily basis but anyway never beginning to happen like we talk about about prioritizing u. S. , and amtrak bloated Government Agencies are not going anywhere. But 6 billion in tarp taxpayer funds misappropriated if anybody broke the law here we go with another brands new va scandal, va says that theyre going to investigate. We shall see. Thank you cheryl. Right now joined by oneal now shes the 2015 veteran entrepreneur of the year critically injured during her service confined to a wheelchair since got into her own contracting business come on in. Welcome to the show good to see ya. Good to see you too. You have to tell me how you got into the roofing business okay, go ahead. Well, after my education, i went out to try to found a job it was difficult, and i just decided that i was going to start my own business. Wait a second you got into the contracting business. I think it is the roofing business. You are confined to a wheelchair. I asked again. How did you get into the roofing business . Well sir, i think that the fact that im in a wheelchair doesnt have is much to do with it but look we respect and admire someone who in difficult circumstances gets up and does something and becomes the 2015 vet entrepreneur of the year youve done a fantastic thing and were happy for you and proud to have you only the show. I have another question for you here we go 36 of new u. S. Businesses were opened by women last year. That is way down from what it used to be. What do you make of that a low percentage of women starting new businesses, go. I think that theres a lot of resources out there that women can take advantage of and veterans as well. Theres Women Business development centers, theres veteran Business Outreach centers. Theres a bunker theres a magnitude of resources and that as a Business Owner you really have to be a lifelong learn earn recheats to take advantage of those. Much how many people do you employ . We have about 18 employees right now. Going to expand . Yeah. Hope that were employing a lot of veterans putting them to work welcome and i really think that veterans make really great entrepreneurs. Despite the challenges that they face veterans are able to really utilize leadership skills that they have in the military to improvise, adapt and overcome. Andening that really the military training that we get really teaches us how to function as a team and teaches us about commitment and about leadership, and building a business really and has to deal with that quality. Veterans have a lot to bring to the table. Yes they do you brought a lot to the table. Kenny oneal thank you very much for joining us, congratulationing on your position of the 2015 veteran entrepreneur of the year. What do you make of that . We do a lot of stories about veterans getting jobs starting business, and theres so many Large Companies reach out to veterans. It is actually more difficult and shes been very modest about her success. More difficult for them to get businesses started. And start to put that seed money dun and benefit again coming out of the military the financial benefits are not what people think. So the fact that she was able to build a business more of a question of her spurt. She has discipline. She understands leadership. She wants to bring things together in her own business and ideally qualified as are many veterans. One of the issue they face unfortunately has been issue of ptsd that is something that theyre trying to address in the Business Community but these veterans make incredible employees. You know who has done a good job . Banks i have to tell you jm morgan to be Financial Advisors because of the discipline aspects of being a veteran. It is really to be heartening to see businesses like banks do good things. Thank you cheryl. A woman fired from her job after she deleted an app that was using her phones gps to track her.

Because i was looking at this story earlier today mr. Varney i have to tell you something here i would be worried if i was uber hes not making an investment in lyft but uber i bet this is what karl icahn does companies go public he goes after that company that is exactly what hes going to do hes making a bet against uber. This is not what karl icahn does not his thing. We have a forecast here from cheryl. See if youre right. And see if it is 53 degrees lawsuit. [laughter] the two come in california that she deleted a Smartphone App that was tracking her movement. Now were talking to her attorney. Now gail first question was it a condition of employment accepted by this lady ms. Arias that chef the app on her phone and that her employer be allowed to track her. Was that a condition of taking the job . No it wasnt. In fact, when she was hired she didnt know that she was going to be required to have any gps on her phone. It didnt happen until about 2 2 months into her employment. Was it a Company Issued upon . It was an iphone. Does company therefore own the phone and own the apps and use of apps on it . The company owns the apps on phone and owns phone itself but it doesnt have the right to invade her privacy on her own private time. What was nature of the work that miss arias was doing . She was a Sales Representative actually a Sales Manager for a big swath of the valley of california out to the coys of california. A number of different counties she covered. You could make the case that she had to be in touch with her employer on a constant basis you could make that case, couldnt you . Investigators question that she needed to be in touch but that is different from being monitored this is not what she was complaining bout about the fact that according to him and learned with the new app installed on her phone to keep the gps feature on at all times of the day and night when she was technically off the clock. Are you suing to get her job back . And or damages . Were suing for damages and injunctive reshe does notment to work for a company like that. How much are you asking for . 500,000 alleged in the complaint room for time of trial according to to what jury decides. Is this according to the law of employment. Employment law is it at stake here . Yes, and it is also kind of National Privacy laws at stake. We have rules in california that prohibit invasion of privacy already in our constitution. And in a penal code section in california, that says you cant gps track people. Okay that is the california rule. You cant gps, track people. Now if you win that has significant repercussions for all kinds of industries and companies i think. Each case depends on discreet facts but an important rule that were talking about here is the separation between our personal privacy and the rights of our employers to know what were doing at all times of the day and night theres not a right of the employer and that i think law will bear that out in this case and this case will as well. Gail thanks so much for joining us a very interest case love to see how that turns out. Thank gail, appreciate it. Thank you too. What do you think cheryl . Interesting argument to have repercussions for companies and for employees throughout the country. I mean but i think the company does own the phone. They pay for it. So in my opinion and well see what jury says in my opinion it is companys right to track her track that piece of machinery because they own that phone. Not so sure arias should have been told about the tracking importance of tracking before she took the job. Because when she took the job she walked into it cold. Not realizing an app that would be installed thenalled her. Crucial different. I dont use any work phone for personal things. Ever felt nervous or anxious if you cant check your cell phone or tablet constantly. Youre the no the only one. Theres something called nomo phobia. Fear of being without your mobile device. Cheryl, look, i dont have this phobia. But i dont like being out of touch with this. Immaterial this with me all of the time. I enjoy it. I like being in various loose and im not going to apologize for it. You withdraw a little bit from life and what is aware arranged you because youre on your phone too much . Draw symptoms because i dont have my phone with me absolute nonsense. You dont have withdraw symptom bus people are attached especially the end of the generation with their phones that they may get emotionally upset without the phone. I have to say it is a safety issue. Safety issue. Addiction issue isnt it . Say that youre out driving something happens to your car and you have a flat tire whatever and you dont have your mobile phone. Youre not beginning to panic right then and there . No i would have trouble. Deem trouble i take that point but i dont have a phobia about it but i love these things remember a blackberry and i couldnt stand the idea of going to an iphone. Took a while for everyone to get you involved in iphone now youre really good to the iphone youve adapted.

The victims of the amtrak derailment today, president obama uses the accident to call for more infrastructure spending. We rail against subsidies for wind power, taxpayer money for variable juice maybe jeff flock will change our minds. Tom brady appeals his suspension but Roger Goodell is the one who will appeal the appeal which is that fair . A current nfl player will land to the question. Evander holyfield flights mitt romney tonight. They are going to box in the ring. People joins us as does mitt romneys on josh. This is where you want to be on a big friday for your money. Here comes our two. Stuart George Stephanopoulos apologized on air for failing to disclose 75,000 in donations he made to the Clinton Foundation. He will not moderate a republican president ial debate next winter. Should he have any role in abcs election coverage at all . Daniel halpern weighed in on that last hour. The thing is we shouldnt be surprised that a former aide to bill clinton is giving money to bill clinton. He has been in the clinton war but for many years. This should not come as a surprise he might have a tilt of bias in favor of the clintons. Imus in the morning one later this hour herman cain is with us with his take on George Stephanopoulos at 12 30 today. To the markets i call this a dead flat day, we are down 20 points s and p 500 hit a record high yesterday down two points. Netflix, look at that. An alltime high 616 a share earlier. It is of 70 this calendar year and it is up today, i am told it will get into the china market. Price of gasoline 2. 69 for regular today. We have markets at record levels, you are not feeling the socalled economic recovery. According to the latest fox news poll 60 of you feel the country is still in a recession. Here is Scott Shellady in chicago. That is how people feel. They feel we are in a recession. Do you think we are going to go into a recession . The risks of us going into recession have never been greater. I say that even with 2009 in mind. If you look of a thing as we can only muster a 2 gdp, pp i is failing, we have Unemployment Rate not doing what we think it should do or giving us the jobs we thought it would give us so where is the growth going to come from . Where is the white knight in shining armor . Q e was only there as a place holder in hopes of new growth. We have got no new growth. What will rescue the economy . No one has the right answer. Imus in the morning when you put your finger on it. We are obviously the economy is not growing very fast if at all. What policy tools do we have available to get us out of this fix . We are not going to print another 4 trillion. President obama wont lower taxes. What policy tool do we have available to get us out of the mess . We are seeing papers the brightest minds saying we might be in this situation and other ten years. Maybe get used to the feeling because we dont see this new growth, maybe it comes from health care or technology but nobody can see it coming. As long as that is the case we are not getting bright minds doing what needs to be done. We will be in this quagmire for quite some time because we have no more tools wont cut taxes. If that is the case there will be no new growth. Stuart is the stock market the place to be . Is the only game in town. Because of quantitative these and we pushed mom and pop when a out the risk curve. People are upset because theyre looking for that search revealed. I would say that could become increasingly more dangerous to be doing Something Like that and we have seen the stock market fall because of that. Stuart thanks very much. Bring our viewers up to speed on a couple items about the economy. Wall street Journal Economists say the First Quarterly three months of the year we will shrink the economy, not grow it but shrinkage and the Second Quarter of the year the we are in el, growth of only 0. 7 , not much. Not good news on the economy. Crews are cleaning up the wreckage from the amtrak derailment and president obama has joined the chorus. He is using the accident as a reason to call for more infrastructure spending. Listen to this. Stuart a growing we are growing country with a growing economy and we need to invest in infrastructure that keeps us this way, not just winds of thing that happens like a bridge collapse or a Train Derailment but oldtime. That is what great nations do. Stuart congressman bill schuster, republican from pennsylvania who chairs the house transportation and infrastructure committee. Good to see you, sir. Thanks for having me. Stuart i said president obama publicized the derailment. What do you say . He absolutely did and Many Democrats on capitol hill, it is shameful that they would use this tragedy to try to address this situation about a money issue when money has nothing to do with this accident. To point out to your viewers when democrats controlled the house and senate for four years as president obama was president they did nothing to address this situation on the reform of amtrak. Our committee in a bipartisan bill passed a reform bill for amtrak in march. We are waiting for the senate to take up and there has to be reforms first even when you talk about money. Stuart what kind of reforms . Real radical stuff . No. Putting in practice Business Practices corporations around america use, first of all separating the business lines so we get an understanding of what profit and loss on different Business Units out there. What we did in the reform bill is focusing on the northeast corridor for the first time that an amtrak reform bill was ever put forward to say the 480 million of profit on operations they create in the northeast corridor should stay in the northeast corridor, not send it across the country, not to do things with the federal budget like highspeed rail in california 3. 5 billion going nowhere. If they invest in the northeast corridor you would have a significant difference in the speed of the trains and quality of service that this accident had nothing to do with dollars. Had to do with either operator error or equipment error and we are going to find out in coming weeks. Stuart do you think the government should be in the business of running a railroad . Technically amtrak is a private corporation. The government subsidizes it. I believe we can move stepbystep to move amtrak away from the subsidies and the way you do is force them to put in practice standard business operating practices like having different business line so you can analyze Financial Analysis to determine where profits are good how you can change the system to make it better. I believe the northeast corridor is critical to the nation. 18 of the population lives on 2 of the land mass. The densely Populated Areas you have to have the northeast corridor not just because of amtrak but also the transit systems and Commuter Rail systems for use these tracks. 200 Million People year ride on the northeast corridor rail system and so it is critical to the nation. Stuart is there any chance that in the foreseeable future it will be possible to have the bullet train linking new york philadelphia, washington d. C. And boston . Any chance whatsoever . Not in my lifetime but i believe you can take higher speed rail, the capability of traveling 150 miles an hour. The average speed on the northeast corridor is 88 miles an hour. With better management weekend that that where you can get from washington d. C. To new york in two hours. That should be our goal. But at pennsylvania, harrisburg to philadelphia, they made the investments and reduced travel time by half an hour. The ridership on the railroad has gone up 80 in the last several years and theyre going towards we hope to make a profit. Stuart congressman bill schuster, Republican Pennsylvania shares the house committee. Thank you for joining us we appreciate it. Big corporate stories today. Loren has got them in case you need them. Carl icahn investing 100 million to left, a ridesharing apps that values 270 billion a fraction of what uber is with the there is room in the market for both companies. Take a mackenzies laundry detergent appellates you dont have to use that big liquid bottle. They might be easy but they are dangerous. At least seven people have died from bleeding into them. Children are getting poisoned seniors with dementia are mistaking them for candy. This is a big problem for manufacturers including procter and gamble. Defending itself against several lawsuits shares up 1 2 . Mcdonalds use them. Their place has more than doubled in the past three weeks now at a record high and the reason is bird flew. 33 million birds have been affected by the disease and the government is forecasting the first annual decline in aid to production will happen this year for the first time in seven years. And sells shares are up as well. Stuart the bird flu outbreak has affected the egg producing sector of the chicken market not so much the broils section for the chicken meat. Turkey should be fine for thanksgiving and eggs are affected right now. Stuart theres a big fight tonight and a good chance it is going to be more interesting than maywhether pacquaio. Evander holyfield against mitt romney he is next. We have been playing this music for about a program, legendary blues man be became passed today, he was 89 but what a legend he was. Stuart Green Mountain pushing back the rollout for its new coal drilling machine to next year. The machine will cost 300. That stock price at a 52 week low. And man who valises ned flanders mr. Burns and other characters leaving the show. You will never believe the reason why. One of the original members, one of the founding members in 1989 he says he was fired and came out publicly wednesday evening because he got a statement from the lawyer of seriess creator that said, quote, the show will go on perry will not be part of it, we wish him the best. Dont read the door hit you on the way out. He believed intimated he wanted to do some other projects maybe mr. Brooks was not happy about that. He says i have been let go comment and dismissed and that is it. He voiced a lot of different characters. Stuart risk to be taking on a part of the producers of the show. You have just gone rid of the fundamental character in a very successful show. A lot of mr. Burns a bunch of others, little small parts he is not taking this down. The thing is creative differences is what we will find out at the end of the day. And no statement yet from mr. Brooks but he wanted to work on other projects and the show said not so much. Stuart a long run, 19892015 is not bad. The simpsons is a force to itself. Stuart tonight is the night, the Charity Fight between mitt romney and former heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield so joining us now mitt romneys son josh and Evander Holyfield. To you first was this your dads idea . It was his idea to do a boxing event for charity. He had done that before in washington d. C. And have a lot of fun. She didnt realize they would throw him in the ring with Evander Holyfield. Stuart his political image or charitable image is that the sidebar story . This is not about my dads image. This is about my dad being gracious enough to do something for charity i have been involved with for a number of years and we try to leverage my dad to help the charity. Stuart i am going to show the viewers the face of the traditional get together before the actual fight where here we go. Look at this. If this is not intimidation i dont know what is and i know who is being intimidated. What the reaction. There you go. Your dad is shrinking their. You are going to go easy on him, i know you are, you wont slug him and knocked him out, are you . No. I am not but i am not going to get knocked out either. Stuart that is true too. How many rounds are you going to go . Two or three at the most. Stuart two or three at the most . Really . Yes. Stuart josh, i got to ask you something. Supposing Evander Holyfield just slugs him, crossed to the jaw and knocks your dad out, what would you do in the unlikely event your dad is knocked out what would you do . It would be a lot of fun. My dad kept telling him he wants the punches so. He does realize what that means. Stuart a lot of fun to 0 dad get knocked out . I stand to inherit a lot of money if my dad gets knocked out. It is all in good fun. I trust the Evander Holyfield entirely he is a professional he wont gawker now. We trust him. Stuart suppose governor romney hits you with a sucker punch suppose he did, what would you do . I did take the pain. Stuart i am sure you would. Thank you very much for joining us congratulations on a great idea. Riding you raise a ton of money for a very good cause. Thanks for being on the show. We appreciate it. Thank you. Cheryl is still with me she has a look on her face. Cheryl has mitt romney ever box in his life . Ever put on boxing gloves . How entertaining is this going to be . Stuart it is entertaining, the entire extended family. Cheryl will he raise his chin like fake movie boxing . What will it look like . Stuart you sound like you dont approve. You are a a killed law. Cheryl they did very much. I am here to bring you down on friday. That is my entire dark plan. Stuart mitt romney looks good. Put that video back up. He looks good. I dont know how old he is. Is the older than me . He is 68, a little older than me, he looks in great shape. Cheryl a great idea. Stuart when you wont by ed on payperview. I was surprised to hear that the wind industry get 6 billion a year on subsidies despite the fact that it generates only 4 of our energy. Jeff flock on that up next. [baseball crowd noise] [x1 chime] [crowd cheers] oh i cant believe it [cheering] hi, grandma stuart if you dont know if this mean by now you dont know the streaming business. 616 a share, is up today on talk to the china market. It is up 70 . Stock of the year. In 2013, wind generated 4 of americas and energy taxpayers spent 6 billion subsidizing the wind industry 4 energy. Jeff flock add the wind farm, 6 billion the year for 4 talk me out of it. Why should i not be a degree at this . You get angry at too many things. But get this beautiful thing. Tilting against the blue and l. A. Sky with puffy clouds up there. These are beautiful works of art clean power no belching cold smokestacks this is future, man, get on board. Stuart i saw they are an eyesore. I am on board. I bought, i spent 33,000 usd buying a wind chill for our farm in new zealand it will be 20 years its than before i get my money back keep trying keep trying to solve that with the bill. You are just looking for a tax shelter. I would point out also the wind lobby how much will they getting government subsidies in the last 50 years . 316 billion. 21 billion. Stuart lets get to the point of the entire peace here. Does the farmer on whose land those windmills are lodged he gets some money he or she gets some money right . I am standing on farm land, 30 years lis, there are 137 of these Wind Turbines out here and all different farmers get money. They wouldnt tell me a farright talk to would not tell me how much is that this will enable my son, my kids he has three kids, to go through college putting all this money away. It is a tremendous windfall. The trickledown economics. Was it reagan who started that . It is a windfall. Stuart we hate plans. Windfall. Your time is up. You, fails to convince me but i happy for the farmer. Surprise you gave me this much. Stuart that was seriously something really serious, George Stephanopoulos in very hot water for covering the Clinton Foundation but not disclosing all the money he gave to the foundation. How can he play any role in the election coverage . Herman cain is here after the break . What abc could do is do another interview on the sunday morning show to talk about contents of the book so we get a chance for viewers to hear what is in the book. Your moms got your back.

Three whole hours were going from 9 00 to noon. Can we handle it . June 1st, 9 00 a. M. Eastern well be there. Back to hillary and george. Hillary clinton and George Stephanopoulos. Abcs stephanopoulos failed to disclose he contributed 75 thank you for joining us to the Clinton Foundation. Hillarys Campaign Manager now was also stephanopoulos intern at one time. He will not be moderating any republican president ial debates this winter. Come on in herman cain. Herman, i dont think he has any role to play in abcs election coverage 2016. You cant put this man into the election coverage. Thats probably the only good thing that has come out of the revelations about the connection between stephanopoulos and the clintons. Youve heard that old saying stuart. Birds of a feather flock together, and the thing about political cronies is that you have a lot of political gypsies that are going from one cronies campaign to another cronies campaign. So this is not exactly a shocker. But the good news is he wont be in a position to ask gotcha questions of president ial candidates. I think hes a movement i think hes a mole for the clintonistas inside abc news who surfaces every now and again to make Hillary Clinton look good. Am i going too far with that . Am i being nasty in the man is an accomplished journalist ill give him that. A fine man and a fine personality. I just think hes a mole. I would agree with you. I dont think youre going too far, stuart, heres why. I used to watch his show from time to time because my wife and i normally go to the Early Service at 8 00, and back home by 11 00 and i will watch his show. I got so disgusted with the liberal leaning slant and the defense of Hillary Clinton defending her titles and never talking about her accomplishments i simply stopped watching it because to me and to you and others who watch this on a regular basis, we could see right through the bias, so youre right. He cannot be a credible journalist or a credible moderator for any of the president ial events that will be coming up in this next several months. Stuart i dont think he can be a bona fide journalist on abc. And i want to ask you, herman, about the position of the reverend al sharpton at nbc. I just dont see how a Credible News Organization can have the reverend al sharpton on their air as an anchor. I dont see it. You shouldnt use al sharpton and credible in the same sentence okay . You need to separate the sentences. Look, stuart you and i both know and most people know this because if you will note, and im sure that you have al sharptons show has done nothing but go down in terms of ratings. Thats good news. Not because i wish them any ill relative to their program, but it means that more people are waking up and there are fewer and fewer people who are stupid enough to believe that theres any credibility to what al sharpton has to say, and unfortunately, George Stephanopoulos has put a very bad optical cloud over his credibility with this entire incident. Stuart why dont you comment on this herman. The president says the media needs to change the way it covers the news. Just roll that tape for a second, and then herman comments. Were going to have to change how our body politic thinks were going to change how the media reports on these issues. Stuart all right change the way the media reports on the issues. What do you think hes got in mind . What he has in mind is report what i want to you report, the way i want you to report it, and if it is negative toward me or my administration, dont report it. Thats what he is basically talking about, stuart. This president has demonstrated over and over and over that he and his administration cannot withstand constructive criticism. They would rather control the narrative and if they cant control the narrative they would rather bash stations like fox news and others who do not agree with the narrative, because their narrative does not match the facts, and the onl way that they can get around it is to try and silence those that are telling people the truth like fox news and like the herman cain show. Stuart right. I just wonder if the wants to go back to the doctrine equal time. Is that in the back of his mind . I believe its in the back of his mind and the back of the mind of the federal Communications Commission because about a year ago stuart, they did try to back door the fairness doctrine by saying that all newsrooms needed to have a government mole, as you called it in their newsroom, so they could evaluate how you and i and other news organizations determined what goes on the air. Well, that was such a backlash and outcry from a lot of listeners as well as a lot of producers and it was an unfair doctrine but wants to do it through the back door like the administration has done with so many other things in the last six years. I believe youve got a picture of Ronald Reagan right behind you. Thats the backdrop for herman cain. I think it was Ronald Reagan who ended the fairness doctrine and opened up the media to reel interesting points of view. I think thats the case. You are absolutely correct because Ronald Reagan wasnt afraid of the media telling the truth. This administration is afraid of the media telling the truth. Stuart herman cain tells it how he sees it, and tells the truth. Appreciate you being with us. Thank you very much. Thank you, stuart. My pleasure. Stuart take a look at this please. This house can be yours for 150 and a good essay. A man in texas is offering this home worth 400000 to the person who writes the best essay and chips in 150 bucks to get into the contest. Hes received a few dozen submissions he will make a decision by the end of the summer. Cheryl . The first question should be why, and so did digging onto this one. It came across the guy is a realtor. This is a hot area of houston. Six Million People in the houston metro area he doesnt want the house torn down, in the 1920s, 1,000 square feet. Old cottage home. In this neighborhood its likely someone is going to buy it and tear it down. He probably thought well make our money back because well accept the essays but you have to pay a fee to submit the essays. He and his wife think theyre going to make their money back. I think you wont. Stuart i read into. This he only has a few dozen entries so far. And he expects 3,000 by midjune. Thats not anywhere near 400,000. June 13th he expects. In the website hes got built. He said we can rescind the offer change our minds he could get 300 k in that neighborhood for the house. Stuart for the property, not for the essays but the property. He goes out and sells it which is what he should be doing. There is precedence in maine, if he doesnt make the money hes going to sell it. The guy is not stupid. Come on, give me a break. Stuart hes a realityor. Not being pejorative about realtors. Not at all. I used my sources. Stuart whats next . Tom brady. Officially appealing the punishment handed down to him for deflating footballs in the afc championship game. And another player says its not the first time hes played with deflated balls. And leave you with another hit from b. B. King, this one is called everybody lies a little. Here at td ameritrade, they love innovating. And apparently, they also love stickers. Whats up with these things, victor . We decided to give ourselves stickers for each feature we release. We read about 10,000 suggestions a week to create features that as traders wed want to use, like social signals, a tool that uses social media to help with research. 10,000 suggestions. Who reads all those . He does. For all the confidence you need. Td ameritrade. You got this. Hello, again, im adam shapiro live on the floor the New York Stock Exchange with the fox business brief. Some of the dow laggards the indices are down boeing microsoft, United Technology taking a strong hit. Caterpillar lobbying congress in favor of the pacific trade agreement. That hasnt gone through. Digital was down most of the mornings trading but seem to be in positive territory once again. They just crossed over. The candy crush maker having trouble with foreign currency and a lack of new releases, gross book, 499 million. 522 million they are predicting. Jpmorgan chase making calls on shake shack and john deere, getting a price target increase john deere theyre lowering the target on those. More coming up after this. Ameriprise asked people a simple question can you keep your lifestyle in retirement . I dont want to think about the alternative. I dont even know how to answer that. I mean, no one knows how long their money is going to last. I try not to worry, but you worry. What happens when your paychecks stop . Because everyone has retirement questions. Ameriprise created the exclusive confident retirement approach. To get the real answers you need. Start building your confident retirement today. Stuart tom brady officially submitted appeal against his fourgame suspension through the nfl players union. Here is one of our favorite Football Players emanuel acho plays for the philadelphia eagles, he tells me hes a linebacker. Am i accurate . You are accurate. Stuart Roger Goodell should be judge and jury because hes hearing the appeal of tom brady . I dont think its fair, i agree with tom brady on this one the nfl fluctuated in punishments in the past. Theres been a bullying case a player maliciously steps on another players legs suspended for one game. You never exactly know what youre going to get with goodell controlling the thing. Stuart you are a brave man isnt goodell your boss in a way . Hes my boss bosses boss. Stuart you are going to get out there, you know. Tom brady denied this whole ordeal. Listen to this from january please. I feel i always played within the rules and would never break the rules. I believe in fair play and respect the league you. Heard it again what do you make of it . One persons word, whats the evidence . Right now it appears theyre withholding evident, and thats why they are punished, not necessarily because we can prove they broke the rules. In ted wells report, the fact theyre withholding information. Stuart i dont know about you, ive had it with deflategate. Can we move on . Can we move on please. I have a question. Stuart dont ask the question were moving on from deflategate. Get rid of the rule. Get rid of the rule. Stuart Odell Beckham junior a giants wide receiver on the cover of the madden game right . There it is. Hes on the cover. Im told there is a curse against all those people who appear on the cover of the madden game they get injured later. Is that accurate . 100 accurate. Ever since the 1999 game when john madden the creator was no longer on the cover every player has been injured. If you play you will get hurt. Stuart how do you feel about that . You play a linebacker, big guy charging in there, how do you feel about that . It comes with the nature of the game. Stuart youre wrong, it comes with all the money. You know how much money youre going to make and quite prepared to risk physical injury to get all the money. Thats true. I would be on the cover of the game 100 . Stuart i knew it 100 . Stuart now this one, jorge posada plays baseball im sure you are familiar with that. Used to play for the yankees. Hes called out Alex Rodriguez for steroid use and says anyone who uses steroids should not be allowed in the hall of fame. Hes since apologized for jorge posada apologized . Did he . He apologized i dont know why, whats your thought. I have to agree. Theres no place in any professional sport, no place in life in general for cheating. If you cheat you should no longer be considered one of the greats. Whether or not you are statistically proven as one of the greats, you are getting a leg up, which is an unfair advantage. Stuart you are straight, arent you . Only way to be. Stuart dead straight down the line. Only way to be. Stuart you are wearing a christian cross. Yes. Stuart are you a practicing christian . I am devout in faith born and raised by my parents. Do you credit your faith with your success in the game . I have to. Hard work, but none of that would have come without being blessed. Stuart extraordinary, good stuff. And how long you got on this current contract . One more year in philadelphia and hopefully many more in philly to come. Stuart what are you telling me, trying to read between the lines. One more year in philadelphia and want many more years in philadelphia after that. Does that mean you dont want to play for anybody else except the eagles . That means who comes to me with the best contract at the end of the year stuart you are in this for the money read between the lines. Midmay the season doesnt start until late august and early september, what do you do now . I practice every day from 8 00 to 12 00. Im in grad School Getting my masters in sports psychology. Stuart do you make money early may to september . Very minimal. Compared to inseason salaries we make about 1 16 of that. Very, very minimal. Enough to pay the bills. During the season you get maximum income. Yeah. Stuart and plummets at the end of the season, the offseason . Yeah. Stuart why dont they spread it around the year . Some teams choose to do some players go broke you have to find seven months to stretch out money. I personally have a Financial Adviser that helps me allocate that. Thats the crux behind the issue why players go broke. Stuart what does your Financial Adviser advise you with the money . Live as you live throughout the year. Dont live lavishly and live impoverished throughout the offseason. Stuart you have a huge surface are you putting it into stocks bonds, gold or commodities . A little stocks and a little real estate.

Stuart youre saying we dont like the rules, cant get rid of the rules, well just not obey them selective. Obey the laws against theft, assault, the stupid rules somebody has to stand up and say no enough we wont. Stuart give me an example. Common core parents are saying we wont sit for the test. In connecticut passed the gun law, you must register your gun and thousands didnt do it. Its a felony, but its safer for them because its harder to come after them when they dont register the government doesnt know who they are. Stuart when you break the rules in civil disobedience its hanging over your head the rest of your life. They will come and get you.
