Trumps supporters, her new call to action against his administration. We are honoring those who lost their lives in the september 11th attacks as we commemorate the 17th anniversary of the day that changed our country forever. Fox and friends first starts right now. America america god should his grace on thee. Shannon a very fitting song to begin this day, september 11, 17 years later, you are watching fox and first fox and friends first. Thanks for starting your day with us. We begin with this story, Hurricane Florence heading straight for the east coast. More than 1 Million People in the carolinas in virginia warned to get out as the category 4 hurricane packing winds of 150 mph course closer to shore. Janice dean drafting tracking at all. Lots of people watching you this morning. Reporter this looks really dire. People are urged to to listen to local officials in your forecast. Im concerned the storm has strengthened perhaps to a category 5 this morning. We will get the new advisory at 5 00 am but looking at the satellite presentation look at that perfect storm, that buzz saw effect and perfect symmetry and that really tight i. There is a very good possibility we are dealing with a category 5, the highest on the Saffer Simpson scale. The track has this as a major hurricane that makes landfall thursday, friday, across North Carolina. That is the center of the storm but the effects are being felt along the coast, South Carolina to virginia. That is why we are getting evacuation notices for coastal virginia. Heres the track, thursday night making landfall. Near wilmington. Dont Pay Attention to the center of the code. It will be widespread. The problem with this is it will make landfall and perhaps all out. Heres the Saffer Simpson scale, we could be dealing with a 5, that is a possibility. This is the steering we have, high pressure, the bermuda high is forcing the storm to make landfall over the next couple days but that high will break down. That is why we have the potential for a stalling system. Some of the computer models, rainfall amounts of over 40 inches will be possible for parts of the carolinas perhaps toward virginia. The bottom line is if you are told to evacuate you need to do so. This could be a historic storm they have never seen a long the coast and im very concerned this morning. Shannon there are always folks who dont listen or listen to the last minute. We will check back with you for sure. Today, donald trump and the first lady will honor the thousands of lives lost on 9 11, the 17th anniversary of the terror attack at the flight 93 memorial in shanksville, pennsylvania where a hijacked plane crashed as hero like passengers tried to retake control.

That 2017 message was followed up with a reference to carter page, the former trump advisor who was under government surveillance. Republican congressman mark meadows is pressing for answers in a letter to the deputy ag Rod Rosenstein suggesting a culture of leaks. We are just hours away from escaping new book slamming the trump administration, the white house working overtime to downplay the credibility of Bob Woodwards fear. Garrett tenney has reaction from both sides. Reporter the white house claims this book is a work of fiction in trying to label the author, bob woodward, as reckless and careless. Fear is based on hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand sources including numerous examples of highranking staff was questioning the president s competence, james met the is is quoted saying he is like a fifth or sixth grader and chief of staff john kelly is quoted calling the president an idiot. It yesterdays press briefing Sarah Sanders pointed out both blue blue aggressively pushed back on those allegations into the white house isnt ruling out a lawsuit against bob woodward over false claims in his book. A number of people have come out and said woodward never reached out to the statements attributed to them which seems incredibly reckless for a book to make such outrageous claims to not even take the time to get a 10 fact checker to call around and verify these quotes happened. Reporter woodward stands by his account and says these denials are political statements to protect their jobs. Last night on the late show he said the book raises real concerns about national security. You realize they are speaking from conscience. They are worried about trump doing things. People maybe not enough, not every time, saying wait a minute. This is not how we should be governed. Reporter the president is pushing back as well via twitter my calling bob woodward a liar who is like a democratic operative before the midterm elections. Reporter releasing it on 9 11, a lot of people saying that in and of itself. Two more us servicemembers identified from remains returned from north korea.

We are going to talk about this, how you have turned this tragedy into doing some good for a lot of people but lets begin with you and your thoughts on today in general. 17 years. A very hard day for me. And he was the center of our universe which he was our rock. The way we met, we met, im 6 foot when it he was 6 foot 5 so we met in a bar, love at first sight and two years into it i was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, he stuck by me and as soon as i finished chemotherapy he got me a ring and we got married so he was the kind of person that always put family, community ahead of himself. Shannon you got married. Miracle children. I went through chemotherapy, the whole 9 yards but had the twins and when they were 11 years old, he had taken a job in the World Trade Center and was there for two weeks. Heather he was in the second tower. He was in the north tower which was the second tower to fall, the 92nd floor, right on the line of demarcation, the plane hit between 93 and 98. If he was on 92 did you have a chance to speak to him . He called at 9 15 and said he was fine, he was in a room with plenty of air. But they couldnt get down which i figured because he had been there half an hour. Heather before this happened the twins were known as the twin towers. Can you stand up so people at home can see why . You are 6 foot 11. Im like a midget. Heather you were the twin towers before this happened. That irony on 9 11 when that name took a different meaning. Shannon i want to ask about the Victims Compensation fund and why they should reinstate that and continue that. So many people looked to try to recover all the people that were there, they worked on that for months and months and years and years and so many have terrible illnesses. They need our help and is very important. You know what . These people, to take remains for the families, anything and everything we can give them. Heather tell me what this is. Our company tall order, fun, fashionable socks. Every sock has a blue logo, sky blue that represents the Clear Blue Sky that was on september 11th. When blue cross their feet it is a conversation starter about the idea of giving back and paying it forward. What we do is get 10 of proceeds to an organization, in the aftermath of 9 11. Their wish was after 21 years after all the kids grew up they closed their doors but there are so many people, it continues between parkland and manchester and las vegas. They can go to trollorder. Com and 15, for those people like shack that need them we go up to 520. Heather thank you so much. Appreciate you coming in this day, your family and friends and everyone who will stay impacted. The time is 18 minutes after the top of the hour, president obama creating a firestorm for saying this about benghazi. This congress embraced wild conspiracy theories like benghazi.

Shannon heather the sixth anniversary of the benghazi attacks, former president barack obama is referring to that tragedy as a conspiracy theory. This congress has embraced wild conspiracy theories like those surrounding benghazi. Heather a former army ranger who survived the benghazi attacks joins us live with his response to that. We appreciate it. Not only are you there but approximately 20 people during that attack, for 13 hours you fought off terrorists. You know it was not a conspiracy theory. You are correct and to hear obama say that is a slap in the face and it makes all of us tremendously angry because hes trying to rewrite history and say that benghazi didnt happen especially to a group of College Students who may not know the story. Wouldnt be shocked if a lot of them didnt. It is very angering to me and i have to continue to put the truth out and fight back as much as i can. Heather what struck me as using it in a forum as we head into midterm elections using it as a way to campaign that not thinking about the words he was saying. Hillary clinton said what difference does it make. Now you have barack obama calling it conspiracy. Continually put down family members and talk down and not honor the family members of ambassador stephen smith, those that did die that night and sacrificed everything. It is disgraceful and sickening and it does anger me immensely. Shannon glad you mention their names, the four americans lost in that attack requested backup, backup did not come. Your thoughts on this day being the sixth anniversary. When you see and hear what Barack Obama Says my first thought is it shouldnt be this way, it is anger. I cant believe hes still about taking responsibility for his failures and leaving us to die which is what he did and Hillary Clinton did, leaving us to die on those roof tops but then you remember the carriage and sacrifice, my teammates who gave everything. You try to find the positives of the Great American spirit and patriotism and Service Members giving of themselves so others may live and you try to find a silver lining. Heather the Great American spirit and patriotism. What is happening to that when you have things like what went on on twitter . You were temporarily blocked. What happened. What took place, somebody sent it to me, there was an interaction with rob oneill, a group that claimed barack obama killed usama bin laden, it was hilarious because they were talking to rob oneill, i chimed in and said you are talking to the man who shot usama bin laden and pointed out their stupidity and ignorance and i was blocked for that. I was blocked again because i pointed out again. It is sad because on the liberal side you check out there mistakes they cant handle it and are concerned what they get his act like a boolean blocked me which is fine, let them do it but all it does is validate twitter is a liberal group that does sensor it has a liberal agenda in mind. It is a positive because it validated again the twitter is going to censor conservative thought. If it shows the liberal hypocrisy. Heather may be more people heard about it as a result of what twitter did and young people that dont know the true history behind it and who these people are maybe now they know. Thank you for joining us on this day. Thank you for your service and sorry for your losses. Thank you, god bless you. Heather more than 1 Million People on the move as a massive hurricane takes aim at the east coast, live on the ground in North Carolina where that mass exodus is already underway.

Todd pyro in wilmington, North Carolina where donald trump approved a state of emergency. Reporter i know this is your state of origin so you have an extra interest in what is going on. Some preparations underway, some boards up, some sandbags in place the we will need a lot more of this. What is interesting in our drive on the way in a few more places boarded up and they reusing boards from irene that said go away irene. That was interesting. There has been a lot of flooding ahead of florence in the outer banks. On our drive in last night we experienced a little flash flooding, nothing to do with the hurricane, just the fact that people are getting ready, people on the road and water comes down fast. The focus in the next you days is preparation from filling sandbags supporting windows, people throughout virginia and the carolinas getting their homes ready to take a direct impact from florence but also a time to protect and prepare not just your property but yourself, some folks encountering empty shelves as they stock up on supplies, gas lines getting long as people philip not knowing how long they will have to be in their cars trying to evacuate. Even the navy making sure its fleet is in color waters as florence approaches. All this preparation is vital says officials like the governor in North Carolina. One of the things that will be potentially different and more impactful with this storm are the high winds and storm surge. We encourage people to abide by the evacuation orders that are issued by local counties and do not try to ride out these storms. Reporter the president weighing in on the magnitude florence, citizens of North Carolina, South Carolina and the entire east coast, storm looks very bad, please take all necessary precautions. We have already began mobilizing our assets to respond accordingly and we are here for you. Parts of north and South Carolina and virginia already under evacuation orders, some as early as 7 00 am just two hours from now. States of emergency for those states in addition to maryland.

The lapd requires all video of officer involved shootings be made public within 45 days. Heather 17 years later in the wounds of the terror attacks on 9 11 continuing to heal. As we look at our role in afghanistan on this anniversary the question still remains are we any closer to ending americas longest war. Joining me from ground 0 to discuss his army veteran as cohost of fox and friends, pete exists. Thank you for joining us. Reporter thank you very much. It is go ahead. Heather i was going to say in terms of afghanistan i was talking about this a couple days ago, i am surprised we dont hear more about it as the main topic going into the midterm election. Reporter a great point. 17 years later we remain at war there and quickly realize the taliban and harboring al qaeda that created the atmosphere in which these attacks happened, always an honor to have this assignment to remember that, remember the High School Graduates have no living memory themselves the what happened on 9 11. It is our job to reminder regeneration of the threat from radical islamists but they were in the hills of afghanistan harbored by the taliban. I served in afghanistan from 2011 into 2012. It remains a frustrating war then with the taliban and al qaeda having the ability to hide among the population. We thought unconventional approach to begin that war to instill National Government that didnt have a lot of residence with the people and it became a pitched counterinsurgency insurgency with increasing american deaths over the years and skepticism whether the mission could be achieved. Here we are in july 2018, we opened up peace talks with the taliban in the hopes what gains we made are not lost but the reality america cant make the level of investment in afghanistan we had for 17 years and hope for a utopian outcome. A lot of uncertainty. The ability for al qaeda to plot and plan disrupted, isis took the headlines from 20142016 in iraq and syria. The number 2 in al qaeda, the muslim brotherhood, fought the soviets in afghanistan in the 70s, still alive and well. He has given eight speeches in 2018 alone. The threat remains. Heather donald trump recommitted troops to afghanistan. In terms of how he is handling what is going on over there how do you think it is going . Reporter he is taking a very sober view, realistic view. He listens to his generals, his instinct were to say what have we got, 1 trillion in aid, 1617 years of war in afghanistan, general mattis and others saying we have an investment in the outcome to make sure we dont let it slide back into a haven for terrorists. The idea is to prop up local Security Forces and given the capability to do it themselves and reach a peace deal with the taliban recognizing they will be part of the outcome but ultimately he recognizes if you dont want to be in a perpetual war tied down in afghanistan, when you see a test is asian of the radical islamic threat around the globe from yemen, syria, the horn of africa, al qaeda has residents in too many places on this earth. Heather 21 of people unaware we are still at war in afghanistan. That is unbelievable. Reporter it has become the forgotten war of our generation in many ways. Heather thank you for your service, we definitely remember you. First encouraged violence against Trump Supporters. You push back on them and you tell them they are not welcome. Heather and now Maxine Waters is back with a brandnew threat. I talked about getting back our swagger, the diplomatic corps needs to be on every corner, every stretch of the world.

Heather now Maxine Waters think threats are funny. Carly shimkus with serious xm 115 with a new call to action against Donald Trumps administration. Please explain. Reporter Maxine Waters making those controversial comments in june. Without mentioning her by name Democratic Party leadership came out against the idea of harassing Trump Supporters and a strange twist she says she does it all the time. Reporter do not threaten his constituents and supporters. I do that all the time but i didnt do it that time. Heather promoting violence and bullying towards those who voted for donald trump, i dont allow my children to act this way. Another twitter user chiming and saying stop pushing for the divide of this nation. Bella tweets if the roles were reversed it would be another story. Congressman water doubling down on call to impeach the president. Lets push to something that actually is sort of funny. The department of swagger. Reporter you may not expect him to use this word but for months mike pompeo has been calling for the state department to get its swagger back. Talked about getting back our swagger. The diplomatic corps needs to be in every stretch of the world. Heather mike pompeo launched and instagram account, the department of swagger, Just Launched my account with hashtag swagger from behindthescenes and sent out this post saying shakespeare was the first to use swagger, general patton had his swagger stick. At the state department we have swagger too. If you wonder what mike pompeo means, he described swagger as confident. No more leading from behind. Heather the time is 15 minutes until the top of the hour. Donald trump could declassify bruce ohr and carter page documents. Is this the right move . David bruno says no. Explains why after the break. Heather donald trump could declassify documents related to bruce ohr and carter page. The document expected to prove bias and shattered the initial reason for starting the russia probe. David bruno is here to explain why it matters. There was a battle about the fisa applications, the data was released at that point. Subsequently there was an open records request that requires disclosure. Heather there are pages of it on the entire page. There has always been a dispute about how much information was provided to the court. Finally if something was declassified and open, we make our own decisions who is right or wrong. Heather which was supposed to be the reason it was released to begin with. The point the president is trying to make is transparency. Not only the fisa applications but bruce ohr, things about him, a conduit with the fbi and Christopher Steele. Heather fusion gps works for fusion gps bruce ohr with the government, the company that did all the research and that part of the dossier. Why does this matter . He will let it all the open. Without a doubt it is under the constitution. And to make this decision, he can no matter what for any reason. Heather Bob Goodlatte on this. I agree with those members who call upon the president to declassify documents necessary for the American People to see what was going on in 201617 regarding disparate way the fbi handled these major investigations. Heather you disagree . The important midterm, i dont think we should do that at this time. It could bring up arguments that affect the election. This will all be transparent. Let people be fully informed going into the election. No question about it. Time is important. It is up to the president. I went to make a point what we heard. Bruce or continued to have conversations with Christopher Steele after he was fired, and how and why and what was said. Heather thanks for joining us. The time is 8 minutes until the top of the hour. We will be right back. Look into the sky for a momentary high, you never even tried till its time to say goodbye, bye everybody fights for a little bit of light, i believe. Geico motorcycle, great rates for great rides. Welcome back, Donald Trumps economy, soaring and so airline passengers. Foxbusiness here with recordbreaking travel season. Great to have you with us.

This was the busiest season they had, 9 of 10 busiest weeks for passengers in the last 10 years. The average price is 84 adjusted for inflation. Havent seen prices maintained at that case, people wanted to get up and get away. Heather take me away. Saying goodbye, what is going on . People on a budget, the 5 foot long is popular, the 25,000 franchise subway story, the profit margin is thin so the ceo says we will get rid of the 5 foot long. All of them are franchise story, the profit margin is slim. When i was younger and thinner it was a . 59 burrito. That is how you live on a budget. Heather great to have you with us.
