Transcripts For FOXNEWSW Americas Newsroom 20200707

Street with his young daughter who was six years old. The girl was unharmed. Authorities offering a 10,000 reward for information on that case in the leaders say, enough is enough. Look at the population of the last year, its about half. Where is that other half right now . We translate them like plant the general population to new york city and its extremely frustrating. We also saw too much violence this weekend and this is something that we have a lot of work to do to address. Its directly related to all at this location that has happened over the last four months with the coronavirus. We have to lean into our partnerships and collaborations at the state, the county in the federal level. Who could really see a reduction in the kind of shootings. We must keep violent offenders in jail longer. It is shocking, revolting at the white house says its prepared to play a bigger role in addressing the violence that is affecting our cities. Kristin fisher is live from the north along with plants from there. Good morning. Good morning. President trump says the federal government is ready, willing and able to intervene in cities like chicago and new york after this weekends deadly shooting of this topic was how the White House Press secretary open and closed her briefings yesterday. Misguided movements such as defund the police leave our communities more vulnerable than ever and tragically at least five of these individuals were children who were killed in cities across the country and absolutely devastating loss, and were great for those families. Crime such as this is dark and divisive. So its clear that this issue is front and center with the white house but chicagos mayor is calling the president s offer to help laughable. He helps support common sen sense. No one should go over to the border in indiana, and that they kill our children. Thats something that he could do. The other big focus at the white house will be how schools reopen. President trump has made his view on this very clear, and today the president and the first lady will be participating in a National Dialogue on safely reopening americas schools, something that is absently critical. As we all know coronavirus cases and hospitalizations are surging across the sun belt and just yesterday dr. Anthony fauci said that we are still kneedeep in the first wave. Eric thanks so much. We will have a lot more on this. Chad wolf will join us in just a few minutes from now. We will discuss this horrible surging gun violence and whether it is time for the federal government to step in. Sandra fox news obtaining a memo, and that claims President Trumps on biden are backfiring. That President Trump is not only hurting his reelection chances but also down ballot republican candidates who have handcuffed themselves. Chris stirewalt is joining us now. Always good to start off morning with you. She says this. Despite the breathless coverage each new trump attack gets this endless rotation of the same defunct smear is the best product of strategic genius. Its a sign of myopia and desperation as each successive attempt backfires. So what do you think of the biden camps claims of the attacks are backfiring right onto him . I mean what would we expect him to say. Theyve got us, they are killing us here. I suppose after they finish this memo, they left it dangling on windowsills in newsrooms best in hopes that someone would come along and say, biden says hes really concerned about his attacks. I would say more significantly, trump hasnt been very good at attacking biden but hes been too busy doing this other thing. This whole other weird other thing that is seemingly unrelated to try to win the election. Hes letting biden off the hook. Because trump continues to keep the focus on himself with all of these outrages and all of these things. Sandra Trump Campaign firing back in a statement, this is ten murtaugh, President Trump is standing strong to protect the very ideals america was founded on and ensure law and order all while restoring the unprecedented economy he created before was artificially interrupted. Joe biden cant even stop his own party from being hijacked by canceled culture and the anarchists destroying our communities. On that note, the president as she saw in a brandnew tweet is awaiting into the culture wars over the sports teams that are considering names changes. You see a lot of this out there. They name teams out of strength, not weakness but the Washington Redskins and the Cleveland Indians, to fabled franchises, look like they will be changing their names in order to be politically correct. So you have to ask yourself, does this work for his base . Does this work to grow his base to make these continuing attacks . Chris . So one of the things that trump did when he was running the first time, unlike most white politicians, he was willing to take on issues of race in ways that were sometimes incendiary and sometimes divisive. He was going to take up the other side and say, you know what, you guys have gone too far. There was a big audience for that in 2016 at people wanted to hear it, or at least some people wanted to hear it. It was a great signifier for trump to let these folks know to rally to the flag. At this point though, the distraction doesnt seem to be working in the sense that, while the discussion is over on these issues and he does keep the fires burning, it seems to redound to his disadvantage, folks are concerned about the economy and coronavirus, thats what voters are thinking about and thats what voters are talking about. Getting after the Washington Football Club which, they got enough problems, its a bad football team. They got enough problems. Im going after them for dropping their name which is widely viewed as offensive and going after the Cleveland Indians for their name, this follows on the defense of keeping the Confederate Flag at nascar on monday. Its bait and hes out there, hes putting it down there where they can get out of it, both his supporters on the people who are going to freak out about it. I just think it ignores the swath of the electorate that will decide this race and now they are coming down hard again. Sandra is a latest Approval Rating, gallup poll 38 . 2 democrats, republicans 91 Approval Rating and the president s independence 33 overall, again, 38 . As you know, there is a lifetime away from, the president has the Approval Rating at 38 and the strategy on part of biden is to remain home and campaign from home. What do you see happening here, how did the two strategies come together . Biden strategy is to not do anything and thats okay as long as trumps dont like trump keeps shooting himself in the foot. I dont know at what point there is supposed to be some pivot. Ive heard from the campaign and other people talk about that trump will pivot to this or pivot to that. There is no pivoted and until and unless hes able to reach out to those voters, the half of the voters who are suburban, to reach out to those College Educated builders because there are some who are highly skeptical in the wake of coronavirus, and the racial discord in the country, until hes ready to reach out to those in some way, it may be too late. That may only happen when desperation really kicks in. Sandra thanks for inviting us into your living. Thank you. The current state is really not good at, getting back to some form of normality has led to the situation where he has now had recordbreaking cases. So within a period of the week and a half, and that was of a of infections. That was dr. Anthony fauci of course warning that the coronavirus pandemic is nowhere near over. With dozens of cases seen with the spike in foreign cases, hello jonathan. We are keeping an eye on the sunshine state. It takes effect on wednesday and what it does is shuts down dining rooms, gyms, fitness centers. And we are concerned about an economic. Despite the uptake in cases, to reopen in the fall, the commissioner retweeted a tweet in the federal government has announced an agreement with agreement with Pharmaceutical Company regeneron to Speed Research and of element of a for covid19 under operation warp speed. They literally cover the virus. You block it from people to stick to human cells but make it get 8track, attract, what are known as macrophages, not gobble up and kill the virus. Keisha lance bottoms tweeted, covid19 has literally hit home. I have had no symptoms and have tested positive. The mayor said she is unaware of how she contracted the virus but the two other immediate family members have also tested positive. Eric we wish her well and by the way we will later have the mayor of miami with us in the newscast. Sandra meanwhile President Trump saying he has delivered on promises to build a wall along the southern border. Now House Democrats could be throwing a wrench of those plans. Plus, gun violence rising in cities across america and several children among the victims. Now President Trump is stepping in. What can he do about it . We will ask acting dhs secretary chad wolf who will join us next. If you are a praying person, now is the time to pray. We got to pray, we got to hit the streets. We got to care for each other realizing that these children that die are our children. Eric the democrats want secretary of state mike pompeo to raise his hand on the issue that meanwhile the secretary of state is defending the administrations response to those claims. This administration acted in a way to protect the American People. We have fought the taliban harder than previous of ministers never dreamed about fighting them and now President Trump will protect our soldiers by working on getting a peace and reconciliation deal that allows them to come home. Eric the Washington Post reported that they were aware of those russian bounty claims. President trump said he was not briefed on the threats because intelligence was not credible and remains unverified. I am a little dismayed that i didnt receive one question on the deaths that we got in the country this weekend. I didnt receive one question about new york citys shootings doubling in the last seven days shooting skyrockets by 142 . Sandra that was Kayleigh Mcenany there, the white house failing to ask about a single question happening. It President Trump is now offering to step in and provide federal assistance if needed. Joining us now is secretary chad wolf. In what way can end with the president be willing to step in and offer that federal help . I think its important to note, this really starts with the local police and local Law Enforcement as a third level backup if you well. What we have seen is we need to make sure that the state in the local officials are asking for that help. They are doing all they can to support Law Enforcement and if they cant they ask for that help. What we saw with Governor Kemp in georgia is to call in the National Guard to parts of atlanta. Then the president has been very clear, we provide civil Law Enforcement support of the governor requested as well as some other options as well. But the law is pretty clear. That needs to be made by the governor to the administration and the president has been pretty clear, we will stop in and we will support. Sandra stay in new york, chicago, if you dont see further action, at what point does the president willing to step in . Again, these are ongoing conversations that we are having with the white house and the department of justice and others. We see what happened in atlanta and chicago, and what we see in portland and seattle is a much more organized criminal violent mob that type of violence. You have to come out that a different way. We are looking at a couple of different options but again we are asking, your capacity is no longer enough to defend your cities, to restore that law and order and request help from the local government. We will be there. Sandra this was congressman doug collins praising the action of Governor Kemp. But also putting pressure on local authorities to act. Im glad to see the governor has brought this up. Thats something that we need to see done. If we need to give support to our local police down there and i think the governor hasnt done the right thing. What we need is the Atlanta Police department to be able to do their job and clean out these areas without having to fear someone not having a back from higher up. Sandra we lead into you with the press secretary for the president showing frustration at that briefing yesterday. For the lack of questions she was getting about the violence of the major u. S. Cities. How do you make sure this gets the attention it deserves . What we know is criminals are violent opportunists. When you talk about defunding the police or you are a talking Law Enforcement or politicizing Law Enforcement, it emboldens that criminal element. Thats what we seen over the last couple weekends. People need to stop playing politics to Law Enforcement, and we are happy to see that Governor Kemp has stepped up. We talk about a thin blue line between law and order and chaos and thats what we are seeing across the country now. We do need to give Law Enforcement that support and when that outpaces the support of the state and local level, the federal government is here to support. Sandra final point, chicago playing the sanctuary city and criminals are protected, perhaps they need to start changing their ways and thinking. So you are monitoring that situation. Two democrats were aimed at stopping the border wall and this is the House Appropriations chair on the congressional action taken. These are urgently needed military infrastructure projects. Our military families deserve respect, not the shabby treatment. The Trump Administration is trying to steal appropriated funds from the military and infrastructure projects. Thats a political statement. The bill, ive taken a look at it and its not serious about Border Security or restoring the integrity into our immigration system. The president has been very clear since day one, making sure we have strong Border Security. Weve built over 120 miles of border wall system. Thats a strong and of effective border wall system and i think its really disgraceful that we have some politicians, some members of congress who are questioning the men and women that work on that border each and every day. We give our military forces the best tools and resources to do their job. No reason that we shouldnt give the Border Patrol the best tools and resources to do their job here at home. When we see certain politicians and others questioning that and questioning the tools and resources that they needed, he goes back to politics. Like i said, its disgraceful. Eric sandra i wanted to fh off asking you about daca. What can you tell us about the president s plan . We are talking with the white house about this and i will go back to what the support side. At this point, did they say it was a lawful program. They also said the department of Homeland Security had the ability to resend it. They didnt like the rationale and the procedures that we used. We taken a look at that opinion and weve rewritten a way to wind to that down. Thats the president and his decision at the end of the day but we are here to support. Sandra we appreciate your time this morning mr. Secretary, thanks for coming on with us. Eric there is no possible bombshell in the case against Ghislaine Maxwell. The evidence Jeffrey Epsteins longtime girlfriend may have in her possession which could, some think, turn the case on its head. Plus mike pompeo warning americans not to use tiktok e. Why the Trump Administration is considering banning it. And we will take a look at wall street, thats next. Would you recommend that people download that app on their phones . Only if you want your information in the hands of the Chinese Communist party. Its a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. With otezla, 75 clearer skin is achievable.

Eric fox news alert, Jeffrey Epsteins longtime pal and former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell has been transferred to a new york city federal detention center. She is waiting for charges. Good morning. Jeffrey epsteins former girlfriend and alleged madam Ghislaine Maxwell is being held here. The federal facility is a far cry from the luxury milliondollar estate in which she was arrested last thursday in New Hampshire. The mdc is said to have vermin and cockroaches. Last year a weeklong power failure forced inmates to endure very cold temperatures and dark cells during the polar vortex. The facility is 20 minutes from the Metropolitan Correctional Center where Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his jail cell of an apparent suicide. Reportedly the bureau of prisons is doing what they can to ensure maxwell does not suffer the same fate and makes it to trial. According to the new york post, maxwell is guarded by that persons highest security available and shadowed every time she leaves for cell and a Security Camera will be focused on her cell as well. Maxwell is that you know plenty of secrets about highprofile men who were involved in epsteins sex trafficking world and she reportedly could possess copies of videotapes seized from epsteins manhattan mansion. Yesterday Attorney Gloria Allred said maxwell could cut a plea deal. Ms. Maxwell knew all of the powerful men who partied with aura flew on the socalled boniva express, epsteins private jet, with him to other locations. Maxwell faces several charges for sex trafficking and sexually abusing minors. If convicted the 58yearold faces of 35 in prison. Breaking just now for the first time ever, a bank is now suffering the consequences for its relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. New york state announcing that it has find Deutsche Bank one 1,150,000,000 for its relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. We will have more on that throughout the day. Eric we will have a lot more on those alleged tapes. A quick check of the market, 3 minutes into trading on wall street, stocks pulling back a little bit today after yesterdays big rally. The dow finishing up 459 points with nasdaq storing a record close. Maria bartiromo, and sunday morning for morning futures. Doesnt seem many won factors driving the markets this morning but, what happens next with coronavirus, and will there ultimately be a vaccine . We are going into the Second Quarter earnings season and next week the major banks will be reporting earnings which will likely drive the activity. Once we see what happened in the Second Quarter with regard to the impact on earnings will certainly drive what happens next year. We are still expecting to see Economic Growth in the Third Quarter and fourth quarter, but the Second Quarter is over. Yesterday was a different story because it started with china. Remember yesterday we had a major gain in the markets across the world because state run media in china came out and said, we need a healthy bull market at the second stage of the economic recovery. When you hear that from the Chinese Communist party which is basically what youre getting from state one media, and minutes, millions of chinese open stock trading accounts to try to get this bull market going and that was really leaving things yesterday. That led things overnight in china as well but here are the focus is once again turning to domestic issues. Its a slow reopening. Sandra there was a fascinating exchange, mike pompeo went on with our own laura ingraham. They were talking about china and looking at possibly banning tiktok. Everyone started listening, listen to this. We worked on this very issue for a long time. With respect, and the United States will get this one right, too. I dont want to get out in front of the president but would you recommend people download that app on their phones tonight or tomorrow or anytime currently . Only if you want your information in the hands of the chinese. Sandra i know everyone started listening. What did you think of that exchange . I think the administration is trying its hardest to mitigate the threat that is communist china. The communist party has increased and stepped up an incredible Espionage Campaign on the web and this is the first time weve ever seen a government use theft and stealing as a strategy to grow. Thats exactly what the Chinese Communist party has done. Doing it three universities, through apps, doing it through hotels. Thats why you saw so many people indicted in the last couple of months from the academic world. You saw charles lieber, the head of the Chemistry Department at harvard get involved. They also send researchers in to try to get at our military data, medicine data, agriculture data and send it back to the ccp. I just reported this morning over on fox business that many people dont realize at the Radisson Hotel group is owned by the chinese. A Chinese Company owns the Radisson Hotel group. When you go to a radisson and you check in and they take your picture, thats more information going into your file. The Chinese Communist party is surveilling americans as we speak because there is infrastructure of wally telecom used in certain areas of this country. Sandra we will decide what the administration decides to do next but, tiktok pushed back and said we are led by an american ceo. We have no higher priority than promoting a safe and secure experience for our users. We have never provided user data the Chinese Government, nor would we do so if asked. We will see what happens next but that is something we will be following. Great to see you. Eric it we have a fox news alert for you now. Georgias governor is not taking action after that deadly weekend in atlanta and he is calling in the National Guard. Our next guest says there is one big game to blame. Is a black lives matter, you killed your own. You killed your own this time. Are your asthma treatments just not enough . Then see what could open up for you with fasenra. It is not a steroid or inhaler. It is not a rescue medicine or for other eosinophilic conditions. Its an addon injection for people 12 and up with asthma driven by eosinophils. Nearly 7 out of 10 adults with asthma may have elevated eosinophils. Fasenra is designed to target and remove eosinophils, a key cause of asthma. It helps to prevent asthma attacks, improve breathing, and can reduce the need for oral steroids like prednisone. Fasenra may cause allergic reactions. Get help right away if you have swelling of your face, mouth, and tongue, or trouble breathing. Dont stop your asthma treatments unless your doctor tells you to. Tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection, or your asthma worsens. Headache and sore throat may occur. Could you be living a bigger life . Ask an asthma specialist about fasenra. Could you be living a bigger life . To bit never bothered me. Dust . Until i found out what it actually was. Dust mite droppings . Ewww. Dead skin cells . Gross so now, i grab my swiffer sweeper and heavy duty dusters. Dusters has three layers that grab, trap and lock away gross dust. Gotcha and, for dust on my floors, i switch to my sweeper. The textured cloths grab, trap and lock dirt and hair. No matter where dust bunnies hide. No more heebie jeebies. Glad i stopped cleaning and started swiffering. We havent seen Police Presence since he died. This is the biggest Police Presence that we have seen. So it didnt even come down when the little girl got shot to do the investigation. Eric the frustration is growing understandably after an 8yearold girl was shot and killed. That was just across the street from the wendys where Rayshard Brooks was shot. The little girl was 1 of 5 people who were gunned it down over a weekend of violence in georgia leading Governor Brian Kemp to declare a state of emergency. Joining us now its Georgia Republican senator carrie loeffler. Senator, its revolting, its offensive, its disgusting and heartbreaking. If carnage is happening in cities across the country and atlanta, who do you blame . Thanks for having me on, this is tragic. And my heart breaks for her and her family. This was a needless active murder that couldve been prevented. When you move to defund the police, the radical movement to defund the police is creating havoc for the safety of our community. What has happened is that has resulted in the death of a chi child. Ive been calling for an end to the senseless violence and i was criticized because im a conservative. But look what has happened. A child has died and the governor has rightly shown decisive leadership and brought in the National Guard to regain the order and we need to stop the violence now. Eric heres what the governor said. Peaceful protests were hijacked by criminals with a dangerous destructive agenda. This measure would allow troops to protect state property and dispatch state Law Enforcement officers to patrol our states. Enough with that tough talk, we must protect the lives and livelihoods of all georgians. Senator, do you believe there is a decline in respect for Law Enforcement officers and Police Officers and this is one of the reasons you are seeing the chaos . Theres no reason to have a decline in respect for our Police Officers. I said stood strong with Law Enforcement and i introduced legislation that prevents federal funding for those who actively moved to defund the police. What we need to be doing right now is giving our strong men and women of Law Enforcement the ability to do their jobs. I cosponsored at the justice act in the senate to make sure that we provide them the resources and we root out the bad apples, we get the data to the front lines to understand whats happening. And the democrats would move on it. They are not truly trying to help us reformat, they are actually using it to politicize the defunded the police movement. Georgians are very concerned and thats why the governor had to take this Decisive Action to bring the National Guard and restore order because its true, enough is enough. The time has come to strengthen our support for Law Enforcement an end this terrible relationship. The little girl was in the car, they get to where the barricades are and of proteste protesters, they shot her to death. Where is all al sharpton and all of this, where are all the activists . Do you think they should be out there protesting against all of this . What do you say especially to those in the Minority Community who are suffering so much from this tragic violence . There are so many that are concerned but i would say, where is the public outrage . This is a critical time for our country to come together and strengthen our communities and provide that support when we need it most. Violent crime is skyrocketing, it has doubled in many cities of this is the time when we have to say lets put politics aside and put paul dumb Public Safety first. We need strong leaders who are willing to do that. I call to replace mob rule with the rule of law, and i was criticized but now look what has happened. A child has been murdered. We have to get back to the rule of law and i commend the governor for doing just that. Eric several children over the weekend were gunned it down. Its tragic and its horrible. Senator Kelly Loeffler of georgia, thanks for joining us this afternoon. We hope this morning the violence could stop. Sandra they are part of a new normal but how long will americans be wearing face masks to prevent the spread of covid19 . Well, we will have the answer for you, next. Plus reopening americas schools. Could it really happen this fall . Many parents want to know and dr. Marc siegel joins us, next. We have all hands on deck and i think the people of florida are responding positively. I think they are responding in ways theres no need to be fearful. More reliability . Oh, also yes. Better response times . Definitely. Are you gonna be making sourdough bread . Oh, is that 5g related . No, just like why is everyone making sourdough now. But yes, youre gonna want 5g. At t is building 5g on americas best network. Visit att. Com to learn more. But this, this is the future. The future of communicating of hearing and connecting with life. And this, is eargo. No appointments no waiting no hassles. And they are practically invisible in your ear. Now you see it. Now you dont. If you have hearing loss now is the time to do something about it. Were here and ready to help you with your hearing loss. I appreciate what makes each person unique. Thats why i like Liberty Mutual. They get that no two people are alike and customize your Car Insurance so you only pay for what you need. Almost done. What do you think . I dont see it. Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. And the hidden smiles. The foggy glasses, and the sore ears. The determined looks, and the muffled laughs. A simple piece of fabric makes a big statement i care. Lets all do our part to slow the spread. Wear a mask. Learn more at covid19. Ca. Gov. Eric Top Health Expert says that for americans will probably be wearing face masks for a very long time. A scholar says it i think that Wearing Masks and some degree of social distancing is something we will be living with, hopefully happily, for several years. Dr. Siegel, several years . I mean, the spanish flu in 1918, that pandemic lasted two years. Ucs wearing a mask for that . Actually i dont think we will be Wearing Masks for that long for a number of reasons. We are hoping to get a vaccine which would help a lot with covid19 and bring us hopefully up to a level of herd immunity which, given how contagious this virus is, its over 50 . But the real issue is, what is the value of mass . I think masks work, i think they are valuable. Obviously i wear one as a physician but i also wear one in public. I think its the physical distancing that really gives us what we need. So if you are standing and we is 6 feet but its probably further than that. You cant catch the virus by somebody coughing or sneezing who doesnt know they have it. The mask protects you from a wearer who is infected and doesnt know it or is coughing, but we dont actually have the studies to prove how effective it is. I call them ask the icing on the physical distancing kick. And by the way if we are met wearing a mask, it cant be dirty. You have to change it, you have two eric i was going to say, thereve been some studies, its not just sneezing or coughing, its breathing, speaking, talking, singing. The aerosol statio aerosolized n the area. Many states dont have statewide mandate requirements so what do you say to those folks who still push back against wearing a mask . Eric, im all for a mask again but a mask protects the other people from you if you happen to have it. The government mandates are fine but people should do it out of a sense of personal responsibility. Social distancing first, masks are second. Mask is not perfect but it added something. You could have it and not know it. You could be presymptomatic and everyone should be wearing them right now. Especially in hot spots. Talking about hot spots, you have School Coming up. What are we going to do about that . Heres governor andrew cuomo. We obviously would like to. And we want kids back in school for a number of reasons, doctor, what is your advice to parents . New york and new york city is doing really well. I think it new york absolutely should be looking at reopening schools because as we know the death rate among young people is extremely low. Less than 4 under the age of 44 so the kids even if they get it get very mild cases and we can teach our kids about physical distancing, about Wearing Masks, about hygiene, and washing their hands and using sanitizer. The other issue though is teachers. No one has said this before. As a doctor, im on the front lines and i have my patients, waiters are on the front line at restaurants. I say reopen the. Eric we will have a lot more in just seconds. Stay with us. Sandra fox news alert, the latest in the Jeffrey Epstein case, Ghislaine Maxwell is now in a new York Detention Center and all of this as we are learning that Deutsche Bank has now agreed to pay at 150 million in penalties over the banks ties to the disgraced financier. We will have more on that in moments. President trump doubling down on the culture war in america, and his bid for a second term. But now some republicans are pushing back against his reelection strategy. Welcome to a brandnew hour of americas newsroom. On sandra smith. Eric good morning everyone. Thanks for joining us. The president is focused on the hot button cultural issues and at that strong accusation is that he has widening the partisan divide. White House Press Secretary Kayleigh Mcenany says the president has his finger on the pulse of the nation. This message is now more important and more timely than ever. Radical leftwing mobs seek to tear down our monuments and memorials. Everyone from George Washington to Abraham Lincoln to Frederick Douglass and even gandhi. Misguided movements such as defined at the police seek to leave our communities more vulnerable than ever. Sandra our panel is ready to dig in. Matt schlapp, chairman of that conservative union. Also judith miller, pulitzer prizewinning journalist, and a fox news contributor. Good morning to both of you. No matter how you look at it, you have the critics of the president to say that that speech at Mount Rushmore went further to divide the country. At that you have supporters in the president saying in many cases it was the best speech of his presidency. Does this show us just how divided the country is and going further . The country is divided and the difference today, you have a division amongst republicans and democrats. The Democratic Party is now fully embracing socialism and the core of that party has become quite radicalized. President trump is doubling down on the cultural war and the president is simply standing up for rule of law. That is resulting in the death of young black children and many others in so many shootings. Thats what he put into words in front of Mount Rushmore. When they say they are going to attack takedown statues of and mary, and he is responding to this radicalism of the left that is resulting in the death of americans in our streets and he is being our president. Sandra heres more from the president and that fourth of july address taking on the angry mobs as he calls them. President trump we will never allow an angry mob to tear down our statues and erase our history, indoctrinate our children or trample on our freedoms. Together, we will fight for the American Dream and we will defend, protect and preserve the american way of life. Sandra we are trying to get judy up here in just a second, but to you on the president strategy, i hear you saying he is ginning up his base but, is he winning over the undecided voter with the strategy . He is not ginning up his base. We have never seen this in the country even in the 1960s. The idea that we are going after so aggressively, they are literally waking up americans who are not that political. With the president is doing with his words is speaking to the civics lessons that i learned at tender age is in college. Excuse me, in school, and public school, that now they dont teach anymore. As a lot of americans who dont consider themselves conservatives and republicans who say this is insane. Statues of, such as in mary, you have to understand that most americans love their country and they want their president to stand down these radicals who are literally bringing violence and death in their streets. Sandra the question would be, wh who is that showing up in our polls . Here is the National Real clear politics average. Joe biden is pulling 49. 6 , almost a full nine points ahead of President Trump. Judy . I think that is a problem. I know matt is trying to defend the indefensible here but the polls do not lie at this point in terms of how the American People evaluate the job that donald trump is doing. So far, only 38 approve of the job that he is doing and that happens to be the lowest that trump has been in a year. The strategy is clearly not working and its distracting american from the virus. Its not going to work. As long as joe biden continues to stay low and stay cool, donald trump is selfdestructi selfdestructive. Sandra matt . I love this. I would like to ask you to, what did we do in the face of the deaths of these young africanamerican children. What do we do in the face of an angry mob that is literally setting fire to churches and saying they will destroy our religious symbols and our founders. It sounds like what youre saying is the president will take the joe biden approach and hiding after bidens rec room. I dont expect the president to do that, i expect the president to be active and stop the illegal behavior. Let the political chips will fall where they may. Sandra so to be clear, im not taking sides here, matt. But to your point i want to throw this tweet from yesterday on the screen because i got a lot of attention at the White House Press briefing. Kayleigh mcenany fielded a lot of questions on Bubba Wallace and thats because the president tweeted this. Has Bubba Wallace apologize to all those great nascar drivers and officials who came to his aid, stood by his aid and were willing to sacrifice everything for him only to find out it was just another hoax . That and fly division has caused the lowest ratings ever. Matt, even Lindsey Graham is pushing back on that, saying why does bubble wallace need to apologize . I draw a distinction Abraham Lincoln is my favorite president. Im not a big defender of the Confederate Flag but this issue is much bigger which is sports and generally, if you look at the nfl and nba, they are becoming radicalized. And getting a Tax Deduction for it. This isnt about editing our history about the south and the north, this is about defending the idea that america is a good country, the best country. Judith, go. Once again, a mighty defense but it aint working. When the president did this with Colin Kaepernick, it worked because the nfl stood with the president against Colin Kaepernick. With the times of change, the country has changed. Now nascar is defending bubble wallace, its defending its decision to remove the Confederate Flag. The country has shifted, donald trump has not. Sandra so to judiths point, i mention Lindsey Graham at i want to put his sound bite up for our viewers. Not only do you push on that, sorry, weighed the statement. The one thing that i would encourage him to do is, there are voices out there that are very much part of the country that are pushing for social justice and police reform. They are different than the folks trying to remake america and it destroy who we are. Thats right. So Colin Kaepernick does not like this country. He calls july a racist holiday. We need to make sure that we aggressively say to Colin Kaepernick, that is hostile language that we dont agree with. He has a right to say it but we have a right to say that thats discussing language. No question on police reform, im for it. Mend it, and this president has led on criminal justice reform. Remember, minnesota run by socialist democrats, democrats like to take the africanamerican vote for granted. If we keep hovering over this idea we belie histories. Thats why so many republicans are very upset about the Campaign Strategy and the tactics that donald trump is using. Whether or not he is or is not a racist, i dont know, but i do know that he is doubling down on the politics of racial resentment and people are uncomfortable with that. Great to see both of you. We have a fox news alert from you on coronavirus. 21 states across country are now pausing or delaying reopening after reporting spikes in virus cases. In florida thats one of the hot spots that are prompting the miami mayor to close down in restaurant dining and closing james there yet again. You cant implement these orders forever. We know that once you undo these orders, things go back to the way that they were. What we need is a plan and a strategy that is longterm and defeats covid19 in our community. Thats something we need to start working on together as a community immediately. Eric and phil keatings live in with this. The brakes are screeching on south floridas reopening plans even going into reverse and coronavirus cases simply keep on climbing. Broward county and Fort Lauderdale may join miamidade to day and retracting the 50 capacity for Indoor Dining that restaurants have been doing for five or six weeks. Only takeout, delivery or dining will be allowed, another crushing blow to the service industry. South florida beaches were closed all holiday industry, at 10 00 p. M. Curfew every night and bowling alleys, jams and strip clubs are back to being doors locked. And a new alltime one day a high of 11 and a half thousand on saturday, the most for any state so far. Floridas governor expressing calm and not rolling anything back. He showcased at this bar graph showing floridas fatality rate for positive cases is lower than other states including connecticut, new york and michigan. All of the devil. Here is miamis mayor. Things are not looking good from a perspective and new cases. Weve been growing at a rate of approximately 125 new cases per day which is about four times greater than we were prior to the shutdown. Five orlando area hospitals are now said to be at icu capacity although there are other beds available in other areas and facilities. To date, florida has had 2006 coronavirus cases and nearly 4,000 people who have died. Eric . Eric the cdc does point out, as you point out encouraging that the death rate is declining down over the last ten weeks or so, and we will discuss that a little later on. The witness is catching the incident on camera. Officers say the man had a gun in the car and his sister is disputing that. Meanwhile, police releasing body cam video in the moments right after that shooting and that appears to back the officers claims. William la jeunesse is live with that. For context, lets start with the 911 caller claiming the man who stabbed him has returned to the neighborhood and is threatening to do so again. Somebody hit me with a knife. The guy was here and try to do the same thing. He has a knife . Yes. Cell phone video posted by a city councilman shows police demanding 28yearold james garcia put down a gun. Witnesses tell police not to shoot. Cop smashed the rear window with a crowbar and then you hear shots. Police released this statement describing what happened. Officers talked to the man for approximately 10 minutes asking them to leave his car so they could secure the scene. He refused and eventually rolled up the windows and pulled out a gun. Officers ordered the man to drop the gun but he refused. The man repeatedly told officers to shoot him and lifted the gun to the officers. Thats when officers fired their weapons. Police so far only release this video moments after the shooting. Those interviews dont shape statements to match the video. Garcias sister said police were retrieving one from the car. Gun is secured. Garcia was visiting a friend when the shooting occurred. And identified the house where they came from. The family is demanding justice, and once the investigation is complete it will go to the county attorney for review and thats probably one we will see the other body cam video. Sandra william la jeunesse, thank you very much. Eric the media is challenging President Trump over the tone of his fourth of july speeches. Coming up next, why the media could be making a big mistake. Plus White House Press secretary Kayleigh Mcenany turned the tables on the White House Press corps over the rash of their horrendous deadly violence which we have been witnessing across our country. We need to be focused on securing our streets and making sure no lives are lost because all black lives matter. Otezla is not an injection or a cream. Its a pill that treats differently.

Were helping members catch up by spreading any missed usaa insurance payments over the next twelve months so they can keep more cash in your pockets for when it matters most find out more at usaa. Com i was asked probably 12 questions about the Confederate Flag and this focused on action but im a little is dismayed that i didnt receive one question on the deaths in the country. I didnt receive one question about new york city shootings doubling in the last several weeks, not one question. I havent received one question about five children who were killed. Eric thats White House Press secretary Kayleigh Mcenany. At yesterdays briefing she was asking reporters a question for a change raising really the larger issue of why the media has covered the administration in general the way it has. Howard kurtz is here, fox news analyst, a host of media buzz. She did not get, she said one question on the carnage in our cities, city is under siege with this horrendous shooting toll. Thats a very fair criticism raised by the press secretary, particularly given the carnage in places like new york and chicago over the weekend. But this came after she was lit hammered question after questi question. They clearly suggested it was a mistake for the lead to ban Confederate Flags, although she insists again and again there was no position on the flag. So i would say with the president trying and those, he kind of undercut many of his republican supporters by going to a culture war topics such as nascar. Putting nascar aside to come why do you think reporters are raising this issue of violence . Reporters tended to follow the president s lead and i guess the general feeling is urban carnage has been going on for a long time, maybe this is that throwing up of hands. Many of the cities are run by democrats but at the same time when you look at th the presides rhetoric over the weekend, there they are perfectly, and so horrified and the other side, they dont really care that there is another side. New stories now with anchors like Anderson Cooper saying the president is leading into the races that hes long been. There president s sharp attacks on toppling statutes, on urban crime which kayla, you brought up of course, and on urban violence in all of that. They agree with donald trump on all of that but the people in the media bubbled obviously dont agree. They used to call them the silent majority. A onesided barrage of media combination, trump knew his speeches would spark a Nuclear Explosion in the media which would blast out his message long after the fireworks had faded. Look, we are still talking about it. Youre right. Donald trump was a master of it driving the news cycle. The media was one of his prime targets and more that we talk about it even when expressing outrage, we are amplifying his message day after day. But i have to say every day that the media narrative and the Campaign Narrative is about donald trump and race, donald trump and nascar, donald trump and the Washington Redskins, its another day that its not about joe biden and i think some of the people who advise the white house wish the president , and focus more on biden and china and of course a pandemic. Eric and what are the chances of that . This president does what he wants, obviously part of the strategy of a president who is behind in the polls whether you believe the polls or not will be to try to disqualify joe biden and raise more doubts about him. Im just saying that sometimes he steps on that message or his own speeches with these tweets that we all love to talk about because they are controversial and because they just drive the news cycle in a way that hes very good at. It does take the media spotlight off the larger things that hes been publishing in his campaign. The one someone will talk about their horrendous violence. Sandra they could be a warning sign for republicans. Thats the track among suburban voters. And what the g. O. P. Can do to turn things around. Governor Mike Huckabee might have some suggestions and he will joining us live, next. When im disrespecting god and the people he made that are equal to me, if i have a good relationship, i cant help but love the people that he made. This selenite grey is so pretty isnt it . Wow. Jim could you pop the hood for us . There she is. Turbocharged, right . Yes it is. Jim, could you uh kick the tires . Oh yes. Can you change the color inside the car . Oh sure. How about blue .

Visit the mercedesbenz summer event or shop online at participating dealers. Get 0 apr financing up to 36 months on select new and certified preowned models. Sandra the suburbs used to be a republican a stronghold but well educated voters are turning away from President Trump. They help the Democrats Gain control but how much could this hurt the president . Former arkansas governor Mike Huckabee joins us now and hes also fox news contributor. All right governor, good to see you this morning, its been a while. Glad to see you. So what do you think . As you look at the present strategy and as you loo look ate polling, as you look at some of these indications are red flags if you will, do you wish to see a Strategy Change on the part of the president . Four years ago the president doesnt do very well either. And in some of them lost their elections because they disassociated themselves, and the ones who stuck with them tended to do okay. On the things that really mattered to the people that hes the champion for. To say that the election is over, its like saying that after three quarters of play the game is over so lets go ahead and go to the locker room. I think that democrats are misjudging this and i hope they continue to because if they do, they are going to wake up on the day after the election in november and wonder what happened is just like they did four years ago. Eric it was i happened with the polls in 2016, you have poll after poll. That shows a president behind some swing states, lets take a look at some support with people with college degrees. It shows that hes been declining, or joe biden has been increasing. How much stock do you think we should put in . I think you take it seriously, but at the same time when people get right down to it they have a big decision to make. Is not about the personality of donald trump, its about his policies. I dont think well educated people think anarchy is a policy that we want to embrace. I dont think well educated thoughtful people think that if we raise taxes and overrate business is again that that will be great for the economy. So when i start looking at the specific policies i ask myself, if well educated people truly embrace the policies of open borders and high taxes with intense regulation, of getting rid of the cops and letting mobs rule cities and take over and hold hostage entire city blocks, then they are not very well educated. Whoever paid for their education ought to get money back. We are looking at a fundamental choice in america and when it gets down to election day a lot of people will never tell a poster that they will vote for donald trump. They dont want to do it. They dont want to be called a xenophobe or any kind of phobic, but they are worried if they will when their neighbors find out. Thats exactly what happened four years ago and i think the same thing will generally happen again. I was just going to take quickly, that was a great point, and the fact that they often dont ask about policies. Like do you support them or not support them . They break down the demographics but they dont ask about these policies. Governor huckabee, if you were to look at say what Lindsey Graham is talking about and talking to the president about reaching out to a wider base, not just talking to his base, although matt schlapp makes the case that hes not. What would you say to the president as far as broadening his strategy as we get closer to election day . Most neighbors care about the same thing. This is true whether they are suburban mothers or suburban moms in the projects or whether they are some Family Living out on a farm in montana. They know if there were card they will get a fair shake. They want to know the government will protect what they own. If they own a home or own a car, somehow there is not going to be just roving gangs, and torch their car and tear down their house, take it over, pillage their neighborhoods. Whoever stands up for those fundamental things that every american wants whether it is making sure your kids can go to a school that is decent and safe, whether its working hard skill matters, that is who will win the election. Biden doesnt have a message. This message is i will raise your taxes, and thats a contrast im sure donald trump is more than willing to walk on. Governor huckabee, youve been talking about the unrest in the country. You are telling the American People that the only way to heal is with god. What is your message, governor . That the fundamental problem in this country is not political or racial, its spiritual. If they think they are better than others they will put people down. If they dont think they are as good as others they will try to steer other people down to where they think they are. The real issue is to come back to the place where we realized what our founders said in the declaration. We hold these truths to be selfevident. That we are endowed not by our government, but by our creator with certain unalienable rights. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. These are not government given, they are gods given. If i accept gods love for me on the fact that he also loves equally every other color mike parson of every other color of every ethnicity, and its hard for me and if i dont love them equal to me than my problem isnt with them, its with me. My own arrogance and either way, thats a simple attitude that only god can correct. No politician can fix that. Theres a lot of people in this country that scoff and the happiest people on earth, people who see something bigger than themselves and whose generosity cares about others in a tangible way, and they came from people of faith and thats undeniable. Who are the most generous people in america . Its them people of faith, whether they are christian or jewish or muslim, these are people who generously care about other people and they are not so filled with themselves, they dont have themselves of their own god putting themselves on the pedestal and thats really the first step toward coming to a place where they live with a sense of purpose and a joy. You cant get that from a Political Party or political ideology, it has to come from above and then from within. Sandra governor Mike Huckabee. Great to see you this morning. Eric while said. Meanwhile there is some new questions this morning about who exactly got the millions of dollars. Money man Charlie Payne is here and he will tell us. Plus, the recordsetting quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs. He set another record. The eyepopping numbers, next. Your next mortgage payment. Refi now at these historic low rates. Eric patrick my homes taking it all the way to the bank. The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback scoring the biggest deal ever in sports history. They agreed to a 10year contract extension which is worth, get this, 503 million. 477 million of it is guaranteed to, almost half a billion dollars. Earlier this year, he led the chiefs to the first super bowl victory and he was named the games mvp. Sandra the Small Business administration releasing a new report on the billions of dollars it loaned out. At least nine lawmakers have ties to businesses that got millions. At the program was designed to help them keep their employees during the pandemic. Money man Charles Payne is here to react to that. Everyone is going crazy over this data. A lot of congressional folks who are in congress, either businesses that they are directly involved in, and they have representative for williams on. He said there was no problem, the funds are put out there to help Small Business and thats why his Company Actually use the money. There are some questions about some of these really large and grandiose businesses that might have used slope, loopholes in the system. I think the thing that really is kind of problematic for me is that Small Businesses, a lot of them are suffering. I think its these large banks, the four largest banks, they typically lend 36 of Small Businesses and they only processed 3 of the loans and its for the large of most favorite customers. It would have to be the Small Community banks and people are pointing a lot of fingers this morning without a doubt. Sandra and they are looking at who has been named. This is a fox business headline on those ppp loans and Nancy Pelosis husband, they received ppp loan money. Nor was he aware of it according to a spokesperson and that loan amount is set to be between 350,000. 1 million also noted by the daily beast and others. That company with ties to the Kushner Family also received loans to the program. It did help about 51 million jobs so far. Meanwhile, cancel culture going after hamilton, charles, i know you have something to say about that . It was kind of hard for the cancel culture to attack they went to the speech of the entire test and putting out scathing headlines and scathing articles and later on that day post hamilton watch parties on disn disney. Its not all about ideology per se thats all its about at this point. Creator and star of the musical hamilton is defending the criticism they did my best and its all fair game. Some were shocked to have seen a response. The money is in the bank. If you are grappling with us so much, then you never go out with the play. These days everyone has to be on the right side of the ledger, they have to appear woke and appear humbled. It will be taking private jets for the rest of his life, and up until perhaps 48 hours ago i think it was very, very proud of what his legacy was going to be. By the way, we are talking about the ppp program. I want people to watch the sky. Small business, one location, he gave out over 100,000 loans and saves 600,000 jobs. 2 00 on the fox news network. Great to see you. Eric we have a fox news alert on Jeffrey Epsteins former girlfriend keeley maxwe maxwell. Ghislaine maxwell. What she might say that could help her case. New microban 24 watch as microban 24 kills 99. 9 of bacteria. And then, even after multiple touches, keeps killing bacteria for 24 hours. I trust microban 24 to keep killing bacteria for 24hours. Eric we have an alert on Jeffrey Epsteins longtime confidence and former girlfrie girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell. Shes not been transferred to a new york city detention center. Maxwell as you may know was arrested at the remote Million Dollar mansion in the New Hampshire woods last thursday and she faces six sexual abuse charges. She still has a lot of questions about epsteins doing. Theres a lot of speculation about secret sex tapes. A security insider told me before epstein was arrested that epstein ran an international blackwell operation for many and policy that allegedly took prominent young women. Thwe are publicly hearing more about that. If that is true, could she potentially gives those in her case . Absolutely. Its a little bit unusual because two of the charges against her are for perjury. So in order for her to make a deal here, shes going to need more than hers. She has that type of thing, it is definitely going to be very interesting to authorities, may be interesting enough to get a deal. Eric it what if the tapes do not exist . The men have denied any untoward behavior. Is that her word against, what, if these tapes arent real . If it just comes down to her word, the prosecutors will have a difficult time because if she alleges that anyone else was involved in this the attorney for that other person would crossexamine her on the fact that she is alleged to have committed perjury in this particular case. If she lied under oath once, whos to say she didnt lie under oath again . She has to have letters, documents, it will be tough for her to make a plea deal. Eric i assume those emails could be included in this. What do you think is going to happen . Emails would also be included. If she has anything to support any of her alleged claims that would give her a leg up on a plea deal. Shes going to want to make a plea, shes facing a lot of time in jail and what could be of dangerous time in jail and shes going to want to make the plea but she will need to have more than her word so what do you predict, are things going to happen in the endor is that even possible at this moment . Next tuesday they will be having a baled hearing and i would be shocked if she gets bail. I think shes at risk because of covid, and i think that will be a tough argument. I dont think she will get jail next week. After what happens in the longer term it will be interesting to wait and see. We will see if that tape bi bill.

Sandra a new move in the statue show down as democrats raise estates in the controversy and set the stage for another battle with the president. Welcome back to americas newsroom. A good morning. Big money good morning sandra, thanks for joining us. Lets go back to capitol hill because thats where democrats on the House Appropriations committee. They just inserted the confederate controversy into the federal spending bill. They are calling for the removal of statues of Jefferson Davis and others as a condition for funding the government is here. Chief correspondent mike emanuel is live in washington on this. Since congress has the power of the purchase, these broader issues frequently play out in funding fights. This one is in a four plus billion dollar package for the legislative branch. Im proud to release this bill which serves as a down payment on the modernization of the house of representatives and ensures that we can continue to serve our constituents efficiently and effectively. The House Appropriations panel notes that that includes the architect of the capital to remove statues or bus to remit figures who participated in the federal government or the army with unambiguous and the bust of roger b taney. The architect is expected to. The chair of the Congressional Black Caucus has spoken in recent days about the statue. Are ancestors built the capitol and as we spend every day in the capital to walk past statues who, were people who didnt even feel we were human, who wanted us to be in chains. So coming to grips and moving the statues away will be extremely meaningful. Resources do not seem particularly alarmed. This is not going anywhere and it will become law. They are heading towards a continuing resolution and call this just posturing. Sandra the president jumping into the culture wars, blasting sports teams for considering name changes and going after the sports soul black driver tweeting this. As Bubba Wallace apologize to all those great nascar drivers and officials who came to his aid and stood by his side . Only to find out that the whole thing was just on their hoax . The flag decision is because the lowest ratings ever. Keep in mind to come Bubba Wallace did not first claim to see that hanging rope, it was a teammate that first reported it to nascar. Joining us now is karl rove, and good morning to you. Nor was it ever reported to be a hoax but did this help or hurt the president to wage this war . Lets step back. Saturday he gave a speech. It was talking about American Values and american heroes and then we have this. Did what the president tweet on monday advance the cause that he laid out on saturday . I think the answer is an unambiguous no, it did not. The president has a limited number of days between now and the election. When he tweets, its a powerful message and the question is does that message continue to advance the narrative that he and those around him decided he would lay out on saturday on Mount Rushmore . And the answer is noel, it didnt. I saw the press secretary say why arent you asking about all of the violence that was in our American Cities over the weekend with a tragic death of a number of preteens . Why are you asking about that . That was a good question. The answer is because of president didnt tweet about that, he tweeted about Bubba Wallace and the Confederate Flag in nascar and i dont see those advances caused at all. Sandra she was asked many questions about just that. Wallace fired back saying, always deal with the hate being thrown at you, love should come naturally because people are taught to hate even when its hate from the potus, love wins. You mention to Kayleigh Mcenany how she concluded that briefing yesterday. Fielding all those questions on Bubba Wallace and other areas of discussion that were hit as well. But heres her criticism over what she was not asked in that briefing room. Listen. I was asked to probably 12 questions, and they are focused on that rather than a big event happening in america, and of course they were going to pick it something that would hurt the president. And that will advance the cause and could have advanced his cause on monday by instead of tweeting about Bubba Wallace, instead tweeting about the names of these a young black girls and boys who were killed in acts of needless violence and thats a much better point. Thats what america is concerned about. They are not concerned about Bubba Wallace or the Confederate Flag but Many Americans are deeply concerned about what they are seeing. As a president laid out the predicate on saturday, he could have followed up on monday by drawing attention to it and he could advance his cause in the Election Year by paying more attention to the things that america cares about. I hope that people around the president and we have 120 odd days before the election. And thats what American People take away from us. They think if he tweets about it, hes concerned about it. All thats why its important for him to be tweeting about things that the American People are concerned about and that are at the center of the message. Did he say one word on saturday about Bubba Wallace, did he say one word about defending the Confederate Flag . No. It wasnt important enough to be built on that strength. And any white house of any party at any time, play to your strengths. If the president decided that this message on saturday was a strong message, which i agree it was, then build on it. Dont diminish it, dont detract from it and dont draw attention away from it. Sandra to be clear i wasnt asking if you are what shift of the strategy. I was a little nervous that you are suggesting i had that authority. Based on what you and others are saying because you also heard Lindsey Graham the senator offering a strategy shift message to the president so you are hearing that from other republicans but we will see what happens. Now onto the coronavirus pandemic. You know a quarter of a million more americans tested positive for the virus in the first week of this month. With some southern and western states hitting record highs were daily new cases. Right now florida is one of the major hot spots, some intensive care unit beds at hospitals there are full and have no more available beds which is turning into quite a situation. Francis suarez is the mayor of miami which has been hit hard and he joins us now. They are, our hearts go out to you. Is it your view that the state opened up prematurely, and what are the challenges of having to close again . You know, i think, and we see an opening and an increase, so at some point you have to open. When those cities open they are going to see rising cases as well. I think the issue has more for behavior, and how we socialize in this pandemic world. And, and it doesnt mean and the path and the parties have been busted up by police and then you had some other protests which perhaps could have been spreading the virus. What is your message in the people of your city, and the viewers across the country who think, its no big deal, chances are you are not going to get them . My message is, and and they are less lethal than they were at the beginning. Now its about 40 . So when we see the ventilator numbers go up that means inevitably the death rate will go up as well. And we will start to see real change. Eric what type of emergency plans are there . They cant handle the crush of patience. We have a variety, and that they are already shut down and elected. Some hospitals are basically portable hospitals outside of the hospital system. We have another one, and im assuming its pretty easy to get going. I hope we dont have to increase our capacity at that level. Finally, wear a mask, social distance, this is not something to go fool around with. Dont have a pool party. And thats the responsible thing to do. In fact its actually something that is probably temporary. Thats an infringement on personal rights and deliberately be told to wear a mask. And. If you dont wear a seat belt, you can get a ticket. And if you get your license suspended, and people should abide by it. And thats the downside. Weve had an explosion of positive infections. Thats the percentage of people who are coming up positive. And if you have a sense, according to the cdc has been declining. Thats a metric for the season which is ventilators, and that number has been and thats still a metamedical correlation some say if you wear a mask now, you wont be on a ventilator and you can help protect that. Im a lot more comfortable to wear a mask, as uncomfortable as it is, then to be on a ventilator. Of the great city of miami, we thank you and we are with you. We wish you the best of luck. Sandra fox news alert, an active shooter situation was reported at the air combat center in Twentynine Palms and thats an update on a situation that began at 6 30 a. M. Pacific time. They responded to shots fired. No reports of injuries at this time and we are receiving an update now. Military police have the suspect cordoned off roger stone making a last ditch effort to stay out of prison and why he says incarceration would mean a death for him.

Eric as symbols of the competitors confederacy armor removed from Public Places and there are calls for doing that in other places there are also now calls for the Confederate Flag and its emblem to not fly over military installations. Jennifer griffin is live at the pentagon with more on this move. We recommended it barring the display of the Confederate Flag on military bases and ships and in any public spaces such as barracks. The decision now rests with mark esper who i had racial issues affecting ranks. The recommendation does not apply to tattoos or displaying the Confederate Flag and pieces of historical art such as paintings that may be hanging at the pentagon or on bases across the country. The unanimous recommendation to barter the Confederate Flag from being displayed could put the pentagon on a collision course with the commander in chief. President trump has said he will be told the Defense Authorization act if it includes language to change the name of ten army bases named after confederate generals. That language remains in the current bill. Marine commandant general david berger was first to ban the display of the Confederate Flag by marines in april. The navys top officer and other Service Chiefs pick began preparing to do the same. General Robert Abrams joined the marines and banning the display of the Confederate Flag on his face. Top army leaders have agreed that its time to rename bases and, the draft policy on the flag was circulated for comment among the Services Last week by the offices of the secretary of defense and the decision now rests with esper. Im told a decision is not eminent. Eric . Eric i think so much. Good to see you. Sandra growing outrage as we learn more about the Paycheck Protection Program created to help Small Businesses had hard by this pandemic. There are some surprising recipients including planned parenthood, some celebrities and even the church of scientology. John bussey is an associate editor of the wall street journal. Surely there is going to be some outrage over some who received this money, john . Sandra, when you open the deep buffet line and you fill it up with taxpayer dollars, everyone grabs a plate and gets in line. Its nondenominational and its republicandemocrat linked entities, lawyers, big law firms and real estate companies. This was designed for Small Businesses and at the idea was that we will give you the money if you spend it primarily on keeping people employed so that they can run their lives and pay their rent, and contribute frankly to the economy. Then, we will forgo the money over time. And that was a point of the fu fund. We are here to kind of keep you through the process. We are not particularly Small Businesses and they got predominant portion of the 571 billion. They are receiving those funds, planned parenthoods should not have received a dime from the ppp programs. At least 43 planned parenthood affiliates received loans of 35 million, up to 150 million according to the sba records. We talked about Nancy Pelosis husband earlier, a washington lobbying shots and wall street investing for private jet managers. Are you going to see growing calls for these funds in this money to be given back . That list goes on and on. The lawyer who helped represent President Trump during the mueller proceedings and previous to his becoming president , and some of these law firms are law firms where the partners pulled down a million plus. At that big Real Estate Company that is putting down the huge tower on 57th street in new york city got money and even entities that are antibig government, some tax lobbyists that are sort of antibig government applied for the money when it became available. So i think you have seen a bit of shaming take place, and as you said in some instances the entities may not have known that somebody applied and it wasnt necessarily approved, but thats not the bulk of this. The bulk of this is everybody lining up at a crisis moment and the door was open. So they ran through it and there probably will be some givebacks, they already have been some givebacks. And not a lot of people step up take that back. John, what do you think happens with this . And, and thats the prison that he is scheduled to go to, thats a function which is a broader mismanagement. If you send the 67yearold to prison, where there is an outbreak of coronavirus, and wherever your sympathies lie its a pretty good argument on both sides. Lawyer is citing conditions he has that would put him at high risk. Fox news alert, hes been a long time critic of coronavirus and virus protections going so far as to downplay the threat and calling covid19 a little flu and has slammed officials in this country, brazil, who have instituted a lockdown. It turns out that the brazil president has been affected by coronavirus. And, the president ial palace says hes feeling a bit down and running a fever but other than that the outspoken critic of coronavirus has been feeling okay. He has become one of the many millions around the world who are infected and who has now been infected with coronavirus and we certainly wish him well. A sandra there is a debate over mandatory face masks, and its heating up in texas. Patrick payton will tell us why he is not asking police to enforce a face mask policy. It is all determined by genetics. And we get on that with dr. Nicole saphier who is busy at work. She will join us next. Newdays va streamline refi lets you refinance without having to verify your income, without getting your home appraised and without spending one dollar out of pocket to get it done. It is the quickest and easiest refi theyve ever offered. One call can save you 3000 a year, every year. You try to stay ahead of the but scrubbing still takes time.

Sandra fox news alert, as coronavirus spikes in texas, people who dont want to wear masks are telling the governor to out. The governor is pushing his order. The mayor of midland, texas, had a mouthful for the governor is saying this. Three americans and free texans, must not allow a fractious divided and politically motivated value of values lightweights to dictate daytoday living. Joining us now is Patrick Payton of midland, texas. I stumbled on your words, you just give them to our audience. Its really not a message of no face mask, around midland we have been encouraging people and encouraging businesses and people all over the city to wear face masks. To do the things that we are being asked to do to protect Public Health when we have a breakdown if when we mandate things and we are called upon to enforce things because we as a city are the only check and balance right now that the governor might be doing so we know whats best for our particular region. So we are asking your people to do exactly what they did in march. They did exactly that and we are asking them to do that now that we are not going to send our Police Department out when they have a job to do already and we are already under staff. They will not be answering 911 calls because someone saw someone walking 5 feet apart instead of 6 feet apart without a face mask. Its not an antiface mask message, its an antioutreach message is what it is. Sandra is so you yourself believed the science. Do you wear a mask . Is a matter of fact up and wear a mask when i go out to different places and its not a matter of i would say blackandwhite, the saint seems to change on Different Things all the time throughout the pandemic but its what we know to be a best practice right now. And if three people who are selfgoverning can do the best practices and protect themselves, and the people around them without a mandate being brought down, thats what we are doing. Sandra the consensus is as at least help stop the spread of the virus. So what do you say to, i dont know, a mother who fears her daughter cant go to her senior year of high school, if people dont behave in a proper way, fears having to be shut down again. They might save mandate desk for a little bit, if it helps us not have to shut down again. If it helps to get our kids back to school. To them, you say what . I would tell them to be very careful what you ask for when it comes to mandating behaviors around you. Right now everyone is operating in a sense of fear and they want to be able to give away their liberties very, very easily in the hopes that something change. We dont know whats going to happen tomorrow with this virus, and so what we are asking people to do is call on their Higher Nature and do the right things that are being asked of us in a sense of a checks and balances not being in place either because the Texas Legislature has not weighed in on these issues and we need legislative action and checks and balances. The only checks and balances now is the local government. Sandra the houston mayor weighed in on this issue and we will get your response on his side. This is not a political deal. Wearing masks is not an ideology. If you are wearing a mask it doesnt mean you are liberal and progressive and if you are not wearing a mask it doesnt mean you are conservative or something else. The reality is we are all in this together and we have to blunt the progression of this virus and we have to do it now. Sandra it so there was a houston mayor, there was a case total surpassing 200,000. Hospitalizations near the 9,000, deaths 2,655. We got your message and we dont want to mandated it but you are suggesting and you are enforcing that for the people of your city. Do you think that people will abide by those best practices . You get the sense around new york that people are trying to do their best to stop the spread. So far have you seen people willing to do that . The troublesome peaches like pictures that emerge of some of these beaches filled with people who are not practicing social distancing and not wearing their mask, final thoughts . You already pointed out, these people are doing the right thing, and whether you have a law in place or not people will do what they are trying to do. So we as leaders for people in Higher Nature, instead of trying to exercise the authority that they may not have which remains unchecked, that Authority Needs to be checked before it runs rampant and we become comfortable in being overrun in our civil liberties. Sandra mayor, we appreciate you coming on this morning. Thank you. Eric as a mirror just said it, we are learning more about covid19 every day and a recent study shows that blood type may be a key factor in how the virus affects people. Research shows that those with type o appear less likely to suffer from symptoms than those with type a. Lets bring in dr. Nicole saphier, fox news contributor. Also when your blood type and most people will say, i dont know. When you are kid, maybe something to note. Why is it so important to know your blood type now with coronavirus among us . Growing bodies of evidence are suggesting an association between covid19 and your blood type, similar to what we have seen with malaria. Type o blood may have some protectiveness. The new england journal of medicine looked at 1600 patients and those that were tied a were 40 more likely to require oxygen or be put on a ventilator. That being said its extremely important to remember that this doesnt necessarily have realworld applicability. And thats really just good news for researchers and something for them to be looking at in terms of more treatments and prevention. I dont want people who have known type o to go out and think they are immune to covid19. And they have to take the precautions of course. What extra precautions would you take and what measures would you be mindful of . What do you suggest if you have type a blood . Everyone right now should all assume they are vulnerable to the viral infection. We know they are elderly and chronic condition and possibly type a blood. But i would like for everyone to adhere to the same sort of guideline, specifically if you have type a, okay. However there is maybe some causation relationship, but some association there. So again where your mask, maintain social distancing and do what you can to prevent those around you. You may have type a blood, but you dont know those people around you. Lets all pretend that we are all vulnerable to this virus which the truth is, we are. As you see eric seemingly healthy individuals can get sick as well. Eric quickly, 20 seconds, what are the different types and what does that mean . What are they . So your blood type has to do with your genetics and essentially what kind of antibodies are in your blood. What do you recognize . Many people when they become pregnant, women get to know blood types very well because you may have one blood type but youre a baby may have another type. So if you have a certain blood type your body produces other antibodies that may attack other types of blood types which is what they are looking at. If you have a certain blood type if you have circulating antibodies and that may be why you are less susceptible to malaria and now possibly to the severity of covid19. Again, for Research Purposes this is good news because it gives another angle to look at in terms of prevention and treatment. Eric is a one good thing is to learn your blood type and if you have type k, you should be careful but especially careful. Dr. Nicole saphier, thank you.

Eric Jeffrey Epsteins longtime girlfriend and former madame Ghislaine Maxwell is being heard next week on child sex abuse charges against her. Bryan llenass life was more on the case. Ghislaine maxwell was transferred here, and a milliondollar estate which she was arrested at. The facility is 20 minutes from the Metropolitan Correctional Center where Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his jail cell in an apparent suicide last august. Reportedly the bureau of prisons is doing everything they can to ensure maxwell does not suffer the same fate and makes it to trial. Maxwell is being guarded by the highest security available, and the surveillance camera is focused on her cell as well. Maxwell faces six federal charges related to sex trafficking and abusing minors. If convicted the 58yearold faces 35 years in prison. Its not yet known if maxwell will cooperate with authorities but if she does theirs thought she could cut a plea deal in exchange for spilling secrets about Jeffrey Epstein and the powerful men that she introduce them to including prince andrew.

Liberty. Liberty. Shouldnt we be considering right now tonight a ban on chinese social media apps, especially t tiktok . We are certainly working on it, we worked on this issue for a long time. Would you recommend people download that app on your phones . Only if you want your information in the hands of the Chinese Communist party. Sandra the Trump Administration is considering restricting americas access to social media platforms or the app tiktok warning that its being used by the Chinese Government to collect your personal information. Joining us now is brett larson. First, tell everybody who doesnt know what tiktok is, it sort of a karaokish kind of set up where you do music videos, you bundle it up and you can share it with your friends. Its very popular with the preteen and a young teenager crowded. Yes. You know its interesting. They were launched back in 2017 and theyve had 2 billion downloads between the op and googles play store. Its kind of like bad karaoke video meets instagrams meets instagrams terrible way of doing things. You can make these ridiculous videos i shouldnt say ridiculous, entertaining to some people, and share them. The concern is that tiktoks Parent Company bite dance is a Chinese Company, although they do have offices in los angeles and london as sort of the headquarters for both the u. S. And europe respectively. They are trying to just present themselves as another social media platform. But as secretary pompeo noted there as did laura ingraham, they are owned by china and that there is always that risk with any app that you are using that any personal information they gather about you can be shared back to the company and if the company is owned by china than it is all going to go. India, australia and others have also voiced serious concerns. Kickbactiktok is responding. Then american ceo. We have no higher priority than promoting a safe and secure at the experience for our users and we have never provided user data to the Chinese Government, nor would we do so if asked. Any company in china is inevitably run a partially by the Chinese Government which is communist. Its interesting that you mentioned india, india shut down tiktok throughout the entire country. Theyve been having a bit of a land dispute over the border there which resulted in a skirmish a couple of weeks ago with some soldiers being killed so at this point we will see what happens with tiktok in the u. S. I would be surprised if it was outright banned but my guess is they will step down like a step forward and really clarify what their policy is on sharing users. Sandra im going to finish up putting these numbers appear, its getting so much attention because its growing popularity. 300 millio300 tiktok downloads e first quarter.
