Security in the wake of the baton rouge ambush. Log on to Fox Friends FirstFacebook Page hash keeptalking. That wraps it up. Be here tomorrow at 4 00 a. M. On Fox Friends First. It is monday, july 18th. Im Ainsley Earhardt and we are live there cleveland. Fox news alert, three more officers killed in cold blood. Another Police Ambush this time in baton rouge. Shots fired. Officer down. Got a city officer down. Shots fired. Brandnew information about this investigation and the officers who were lost. Meanwhile, in the wake of another attack, donald trump sticking to tough talk. We are the law and order candidates. Were going to change things around. Will that message send the trump pence ticket to the white house . He hopes so. Wow. And were just hours from the first speeches at the rnc. Melania trump is the headliner. What will she say . Well get it to you. Mornings are better with friends. Today is the first day of the Republican National convention, and we are live from cleveland. Hey, but wait a minute. We were supposed to be outside. That is because there is a little thunderstorm that has popped up in the last hour along the banks of the great lake erie. Thats right. So were inside the Huntington Convention center just a couple of blocks away from the q where in a couple of
nights donald trump will accept the nomination to be the republican nominee for president of the United States. Yes. We did not bring ponchos so, therefore, we took the easy way out and actually went inside. Yesterday afternoon our rundown changed substantially because of the horrific acts in new orleans. Another one. Lets talk about this. The country once again finds itself Mourning Police officers murdered in cold blood. This time the Police Officers responded to a 911 call about somebody with a gun in baton rouge, louisiana. Six of the Police Officers shot before the killer was taken out. And Leland Vitter scrambles to the scene with the absolute latest. Hey, leland. Reporter good morning, guys. Little did these officers know they were walking straight into an ambush. The flag at half staff behind me at Baton Rouge Police department. The flag at half staff around the city. Its difficult to put into words the sadness and the grief that
has beset baton rouge. This man is shooting at the police. He has a mask on looking like a wizard, baby. Rifle. He is military. I dont know who this man is. And it was about 9 00 a. M. Yesterday that the sounds of sirens and a gun battle broke the peace of sunday morning in baton rouge. These officers were eating at a popular restaurant not far from Police Headquarters when the call came in for a man with a rifle, and they arrived there nearby a local business, a gas station and a couple of other businesses, a car wash. Little did they know they were walking straight into that ambush. Shots fired. Officer down. Shots fired, officer down. Got a city officer down. Shots fired. We have an officer down. The deputies, theyre getting the one officer in just a second. Stand by. The three officers killed officer montrel jackson, 32 years old. Ten years on the force. Brad garafola, 24 years as a sheriffs deputy. Four children known as a great family man, a great neighbor. Nicest guy youll ever want to meet. Matthew garal, 41 years old, only been on the force a couple of years by himself. Just celebrated his fourth wedding anniversary. A former marine and also a former Army Blackhawk crew chief. I told my troopers tonight, be prepared. Be aware of your surroundings and be safe because thats what this is all about. Reporter and add the name of gavin long to the names we wish we never knew. 29 years old. Former us marine. Five years of military service, although like the dallas shooter, did not have any combat
experience while in the military. That did not stop him from being an unbelievable and deadly aim. Had a lot of extra ammunition on him as you heard from that witness, dressed in all black. Combing through his social media pages show a very troubled man clearly with a lot of hate in his mind, not only for whites in general but specifically for Police Officers. And as you travel around bad ton rouge, you run into Law Enforcement from all over louisiana, all over the country, and clearly they are here to support their brothers at the Baton Rouge Police department. They are also here out of fear that these attacks on Police Officers may not be over. Back to you guys. All right. Leland vittert, live in baton rouge. Lets bring in david webb. David, apparently the shooter in a series of rambling youtubes urged black americans to fight back against police. We dont know the motive of why he did the shooting, why he put on the mask dressed like a ninja, the body armor. We dont know the motive, we just know that things feel like
theyre spiraling out of control. Yeah. First of all, im disgusted that this killer ever wore the title u. S. Marine. Its personally insulting. Ive spoken to many other marines in the last 24 hours who are insulted. I say that he does not reflect at all what a true marine is. These are the protectors of our communities. Baton rouge is a city i know well, have been there and worked with 4r5e67Law Enforcement on ar of issues. The first message to the nation, this cant continue. Frankly, the excuses that he got divorced and he had a bad time. A lot of people get divorced. A lot of them. And they dont go out and kill. Montrel jackson leaves behind a 4monthold boy. He wrote something pretty powerful on facebook and i posted it on twitter if you want
to read the entire thing. He wrote on facebook, these are trying times. Please dont let hate infect your heart. This city must and will get better. Im working in these streets so any protesters, officers, friends, family or whoever, if you see me and you need a hug or want to say a prayer, i got you. That was after dallas. This is this is someone who like many other officers commit themselves to protecting the community, being there when a grandmother needs a help, when theres an accident, when theres fire, ems. I cant stress this enough. Because of the black lives Matter Movement and all the other elements around this, the legitimizing of this movement by the president , giving them the white house to come into, you give them a podium and out of that comes reduction in police protection. Doubling up the force means half the force are you partially blaming the president for this . Yes. When you give the when you give the president ial seal of
approval to legitimize in a movement with the violence within it. There are people concerned about serious issues. There are bad sheeps, those should be dealt with. No good cop likes a bad cop, thats a fact, but when youre president in the United States and you have an irresponsible action, you bring in people like deree mckeeson and people from houston who have brought in violence. They called for violence to stop yesterday. Meanwhile, you brought up the president. Hes been doing this for 7 1 2 years. Weve been talking about this way too much. Heres a look back at the way hes handled some of these remarks against the shootings against Law Enforcement. The Cambridge Police acted stupidly. There is a long history in this country of africanamericans and latinos being stopped by law
enforcement disproportionately. Thats just a fact. The Africanamerican Community is also knowledgeable that there is a history of Racial Disparities in the enforcement of laws. We have seen too many instances of what appears to be Police Officers interacting with individua individuals, primarily africanamerican, often poor, in ways that raise troubling questions. Last year africanamericans were shot by police at more than twice the rate of whites. Africanamericans are arrested
at twice the rate of white. Theres a big chunk of our fellow citizenry that feels as if because of the color of their skin they are not being treated the same. How do those remarks, you think, fuel what we saw yesterday . They fuel them incredibly dangerously. Lets take the very first piece of what the president said. Right before that he said, while i dont have all the facts, and then he went on the police acted stupidly. There is a lot of issues. There are issues to be addressed not only in the black community but in poor urban communities, in failed cities under liberal progressive leadership for 40 years like they did in baltimore but he tells you half truths. He gives you one sentence but doesnt put it into context because hes afraid of the full conversation to talk about the level of crime, the way crime happens in communities white or black and the fact that the numbers of stops are relative to where crimes exist. Police go and work and police
where the crime is most dominant. Lets see if today we can finally get the motive. Look, those families out there, weve had eight dead cops, weve had other cops around the country being shot, missouri, spine severed, shot in the back. Weve got to stop this. The community has to turn around and reject black lives matter. It would be great if we stopped it here first in cleveland and had a peaceful convention. Thank you, david. Everyone is concerned about the security. Theyre fueling fresh security concerns. With the rnc kicking off in a few hours. This city bracing for protests and unrest. The whole list of speakers. Yeah, a pretty good list. Peter doocy is live in cleveland with what we can expect day one, monday. Reporter right. Every night of the convention is going to have a theme that plays out trumps very simple and very famous slogan, make America Great again. Tonight is make america safe again. It will operate Trump Administration solutions to the domestic and International Threats that weve been talking about, reporting on the past few days. Tonight is the night theyre going to talk about benghazi, Hillary Clintons role in crafting Foreign Policy. Speakers include michael flynn, congressman and former navy s. E. A. L. Ryan zinke and she skipped the opening events, melania, to practice her speech at home. Other themes later in the week, make america work again. Make America First again. And make america one again. We have seen a complete list of speakers but Reince Priebus says to expect a few surprises. The focus really has shifted to whats on stage. Peter doocy is outside. We were in attendance yesterday. The balloons are ready to be dropped. Tonights festivities with Melania Trump is will donald trump be in the arena. Theres a good possibility he will be. Hes going to be with us 45 minutes from now. Were going to ask him. It will be a great roster. Marie giuliani. Joni ernst as well as people peter mentioned. Meanwhile, straight ahead on our show, the baton rouge Police Ambush sparking new Police Security concerns. Here at the rnc, how are Police Responding . Were going to ask the man in charge of that entire operation next. The Gillette Mach 3 turbo

The shootings of six Police Officers in baton rouge yesterday impacting the security here in cleveland. The police union now calling for a suspension of ohios open carry laws during the rnc which starts today. Joining us is steve loomis, the president of the Cleveland Police patrols association. The governor said he heard your request. The governor says he cant do it. Somebody can do it because
theres no guns inside the quicken loans arena. If he cant do it, then be we expect him to get on his horse and help us get it done. Steve, you live and you work in a city that allows the open carry. Whats your biggest challenge now . You know, its going to be to divert resources that we have. People are going to have a lot of Police Officers looking at them. That might be somebody thats completely innocent, exercising their rights. Were nra guys. We are constitutionalists. We defend the constitution. This isnt about abolishing anything, this is about the common sense leadership. What do the baton rouge assassinations do to your job. Yes, and thank you for saying that, assassinations. Thats absolutely what it was. You know, it makes us very, very
cautious. A little bit of fear is a good thing for these guys. I dont want anybody getting complacent. What do you think about the president s comments over the last 7 1 2 years. What role do his comments on situations like this do for your job and play a role, if any, in what happened . Its huge. Its absolutely huge. Its deplorable. The president does have blood on his hands in our opinion. One day after the policeinvolved shooting in baton rouge. Those comments should be run out of town on a rail for making the comments they did one short day after that. Its insightful. Then it escalates and then they escalate. This is where were at. When an africanamerican says its different in america to be me than it is to be a white person when it comes to police
officers and Law Enforcement, what do you say to that . I say stop. Stop with the excuses. We have a black president for crying out loud. We have a black attorney general. We have black may jurors, black police chiefs. Stop. Just stop with the nonsense. Take responsibility for what it is going on in your own community. Thats why we get called into those places. I know you have plenty of people here real trained. Are you going to be able to do your job . Yes. The officers that are here to help us from all over the country are going to do an outstanding job and rise to the occasion. Okay. Because youll be challenged. We are going to be challenged, no doubt about it. As the president of the Cleveland Police patrol station, one of the busiest and most important jobs. Thank you very much. Coming up straight ahead. Before he was an ohio congressman and president ial candidate, he was Dennis Kucinich, americas youngest mayor. People would come for
appointments. They would look in and theyre still looking for the mayor. I would say, yes, im the cleveland mayor. The former congressman takes us back to when he was better known as dennis the menace. That story next. When josh atkins books at laquinta. Com. He gets a ready for you alert the second his room is ready. So you know what he gives . Ill give you everything ive got and then some. He gives a hundred and ten percent

welcome back. Its 24 minutes after the hour. Quick headlines. In a fox news alert to begin. Another Disturbing Police shooting. This one taking place in milwaukee, wisconsin. An officer ambush. While sitting in his very own patrol car 31yearold Brandon Baranowski shot several times in the chest and in the arm as he responded to a Domestic Violence call. He is expected to survive. The suspect later shot and killed himself. Another alert to bring you this morning. This morning an American College
student is now confirmed as another victim in the deadly nice attack. Nicholas leslie, a junior at u. C. Berkeley had been studying abroad. Two other americans, a father and his son from texas also among the dead. We are also learning this morning that the terrorists had researched his route days before the attack. He also sent a chilling text message just moments before his rampage saying, quote, i have the material. Bring more weapons. Those are your headlines. Ill see you back here shortly. Ainsley, steve, brian, back to you. Heather, thank you very much. All right. As you know, the Republican National convention, well be here all week. The city wasnt always the welcoming and beautiful city that it is today. In fact, its nickname was once the mistake on the lake. The late 70s saw one of the most contentious times in clevelands history and at the center of it all was boy mayor Dennis Kucinich who later became
ohios congressman and ran for president. You know him, we know him and i talked to him about all that and more as he took us on a tour down memory lane at clevelands city hall, a couple of blocks from where were sitting right now. Does this look familiar . It is familiar. Right. So you were the youngest big city mayor in america in this office, which is spectacular . Yeah. It was a nic when i was first elected people would come for appointments with the new mayor. Theyd look in theyd look in, im behind a desk and theyre still looking for the mayor. Yes, cleveland has a baby mayor, okay . It had to be daunting. It gave me the background that i needed to be able to be involved in national leadership. This is what prepared me for it. We are in one of the most glorious rooms in america. It is. The city council for cleveland. Can i hear you do that cleveland rocks . Cleveland rocks its kind of crazy to think Dennis Kucinich was the mayor of the home of rock and roll. We had sports and march bores and its been a great community. I was talking to somebody who grew up here and he told me that the thing about you was he didnt know whether you were a democrat or a republican. Even after these many years in politics, this democrat republican stuff never really appealed to me. Where did those values come from . I went out for the varsity team and more than anything i wanted to play football. The coach looked at me and said, youre too small. I said, look, let me show you i can play. He let me in for a scrimmage. I did a perfect cross body block on the biggest guy on the team and took him down. Everybodys like, whats this . What i learned from that is that, you know, desire can take you a long ways. At what point did you say to yourself, you know what, maybe i should work in Public Service . I was 20 years old when i decided to run for city council. I started off knocking on doors asking for votes and that first election i came pretty close to winning. I was just 20 years old. You lost . I lost. But you got back up . Two years later i won by 16 votes. That was where i sat when i was a City Council Man and i was very active and that really set me on the path to being elected as americas youngest mayor in 1977. I remember when you were elected and for a while they called you dennis the menace. Yeah, i dont know how that happened. Some people didnt trust you. There was people who were used to using their financial
power to dictate decisions in city hall. So this kid, this dennis the menace doesnt understand how this town works because the powerful were going to run things and you were getting in their way. Thats a pretty good analysis. How many times did people try to kill you . There was an assassination plot at the time. I didnt seek to draw attention to it because, you know, i had a job to do. I was going to do it. I wasnt going to be intimidated. Listen, coming up youre going to hear more from the former congressman about those attempts. Yes, people tried to rub him out more than one time. A little later on the program. It is the first time he has ever talked on television about it and it is really powerful. Great interview. The second half coming up. Much more coming up in this show. 2 1 2 hours. Brandnew details coming in from the scene of that horrific Police Ambush in baton rouge. Rod wheelers been working this
story, just spoke with the police. He is live on the ground next. And donald trump and his brandnew running mate governor pence. I hope thats coffee for us. I dont think its coffee. Give me that. If you love crab and who doesnt then seize the day already. Crabfest is back at red lobster with so many kinds of crab and the most crab dishes of the year. So dive into whatever floats your crabloving boat. Like crab lovers dream. Crack open tender snow and king crab legs, and twirl creamy crab alfredo. Or try the new alaska bairdi crab dinner. Sweet and straight from the icy waters of alaska, youve gotta get it. To really get it. But it wont last forever, so hurry in. And i quit smoking with im chantix. I had a lot of doubts going in. I was a smoker. Hands down, it was, thats who i was. After one week of chantix, i knew i could quit. Along with support, Chantix Varenicline is proven to help people quit smoking. Chantix definitely helped reduce my urge to smoke. Some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. Some had seizures while taking chantix. If you have any of these,
stop chantix and call your doctor right away. Tell your doctor about any history of Mental Health problems, which could get worse or of seizures. Dont take chantix if youve had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. If you have these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away as some can be lifethreatening. Tell your doctor if you have heart or blood vessel problems, or develop new or worse symptoms. Get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. Decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. Use caution when driving or operating machinery. Most common sideaffect is nausea. Life as a nonsmoker is a whole lot of fun. Ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. The police are going. This man is shooting at the police. He has a mask on looking like a ninja, baby. He is military. I dont know who this man is. This is a fox news alert. Once again, the country finds itself Mourning Police officers murdered in cold blood. Six officers in baton rouge,
louisiana, shot responding to a call about a man now identified as gavin eugene long of kansas city, missouri, dressed head to toe in black with a mask armed with an Assault Rifle some have described it as. Steve, the government trained this guy. The responding officers coming under fire playing out in chilling daze dispatch. Heres some more of that audio. Shots fired. Officer down. Shots fired, officer down. Got a city officer down. Shots fired. Assault rifle . Three officers were executed, three others were injured including one who is fighting for his life at this hour and could use your prayers. The shooter was shot and killed at the scene. All right. Lets bring in rod wheeler, former d. C. Homicide detective, Fox News Contributor. Rod, we were just talking a little bit about the gun used. Appare apparently he was dressed head to toe in body armor, a mask,
dressed like a ninja. Do we know anything about the motive at this point . We dont know exactly, steve, what the motive was, but what we do know is this shooter came prepared for combat. Let me explain to you and the viewers how this went down. A lot of my Law Enforcement colleagues have been emailing me asking me if i can find out why the officers went into that funnel of danger. Thats what we call it. Now the shooting scene is about a half a block away from where im standing right now, and last night when i got here the police allowed me to take a look, very close look at the scene itself. Heres what happened. The officers were having breakfast at a local restaurant here which is normal for sunday morning. They got the call at around 8 38 a. M. That a man with a gun was seen walking on airline highway which is the road right here where im standing. The iis isis isism immediate
left. They entered into the funnel of danger and thats when this guy had positioned himself whereby he could shoot Police Officers without the cops seeing him. So thats why he was able to shoot these three officers initially and then the other officers. They returned fire taking this guy out but unfortunately three of the officers passed away. And apparently, is it true, that the day before the shooting the new black Panther Party opened a chapter in baton rouge where this happened . Thats right. Thats exactly what were hearing, that they had opened a chapter here. Now the other thing that goes along with that, steve, is simply this. This shooter, we do know, were learning a lot more information about him. He was in dallas, texas, two weeks ago when i was there and he was in that shooting. He actually participated in the protests there and he came here to baton rouge to participate. Rod wheeler live in baton
rouge. Thank you very much. Right now we still dont know why he did it. Meanwhile Tucker Carlson talks about the impact and talking about politics. Once again were going down the road of a Police Officer assassination. It was a setup. Of course it was. And in this one way president obama was right, it wasnt an attack on Police Officers, it wasnt an attack on the system itself, on the rule of law, the Justice System and its a threat to our civilization. There are a lot of police chiefs, people talk to cops, gun goes off, murdered, terrible. Not necessarily an attack on the american system itself. Our president is saying that he doesnt know the motive and hes calling for calm here at the convention. Hes blaming the administration. Look, he doesnt know the motive. Okay. Is there a Single Person out of 320 Million People in the country who cant kind of guess the motive . This is the same as the dallas shooting. This is where this is going. You can see the stew where this guy is coming from. He is a member of the nation of islam. You sort of get it. This reminds me very much of the president s statement after dallas, after the shooter gave his motives. Im not clear why he did it. Same as global warning. Thats true. At least he didnt bring up gun control is the issue. Thats yesterday. The president also got his head handed to him a little bit and responded angrily when a Lieutenant Governor got up and said, mr. President , with all due respect, watch your words. Your words matter. He said, i always back Law Enforcement. Do you think he doesnt realize how his message is being interpreted . The president , the attorney general of the United States the democratic presumptive nominee have all three endorsed black lives matter. So theyre taking a really clear stand for this group against the police, not just for cops but
all police. Im not blaming the president for this shooting. Theyve taken a side completely and its not the side of Law Enforcement clearly. Were going to be talking about what happened down in baton rouge but were here in cleveland. On thursday night mike pence and donald trump will wind up the nomination for president Vice President. They sat down on Television Last night with leslie stall, kind of a contentious interview, and heres a passage where it is very clear in their history donald trump and mike pence have disagreed on a number of things including iraq. Iraq, that was handled so badly. Iraq did not knock down your running mate voted for it. I dont care. What do you mean you dont care that he voted . That was a long time ago. He voted that way. They were also misled. But you harped on this. I was against the war in iraq
from the beginning. Yeah, but you used that vote of hillarys that was the same as governor pence as the example of her bad judgment. Many people have and frankly im one of the few that was right on iraq. Hes entitled to make a mistake every once in a while. But shes not . Shes not. Okay. So, tucker, do president ial candidates the actual candidate and their Vice President always have to agree on everything . Oh, of course not. President reagan and his Vice President george w. Bush debated policy. The truth is, trump couldnt have found a republican running mate who opposed the war and not many democrats. I still think trump is well within the mainstream of Current National opinion on the war. It didnt work as we hoped it would. No, hed be running alone if that were the case. Congressman, tonight it kicks
off. Melania trump, joni ernst, rudy giuliani. The benghazi guy. Tom cotton. All ready. Melania trump by far why . Because trump is such an unusual guy that even after a year of watching him, you sort of wonder who is this guy . And his family puts him in contrast. Everybody i know says theyre amazingly well and adjusted to be blunt about it. To be honest. How many billionaire kids would you not want to have dinner with. Such hard workers. I think theyre great. Melania trump is the one person we havent heard that much from. Everyone i speak to who knows her says shes smart. Im really interested to hear what she says. Do you think that was she said she was practicing her speech at the golf club instead of showing up to the mike pence, hes my running mate press conference. Was that a problem for you . No, not at all. Practice makes perfect. True. She speaks many different languages. How would you like to give a Convention Speech in a language you dont grow up with . Not very well. Always great to have you on. I hope baton rouge wont be the last. Thats to come, discussing online reactions to the latest Police Ambush. Clayton morris is tracking the social media reaction. Clayton . Thats right. Coming up well be tracking all the social media reaction. The conversation being driven by baton rouge but there is some talk this morning on social media who were hustled out of kirkland square because of the massive storms that are coming through. Theyre taking to social media. The protests will kick off some time this afternoon. We will be tracking all of it on social media when we come right back. Safety doesnt come in a box. Its not a banner that goes on a wall. Its not something you do now and then. Or when its convenient. Its using stateoftheart simulators to better prepare for any situation. Its giving offshore teams onshore support. And its empowering anyone to stop a job if something doesnt seem right. At bp, safety is never being satisfied. And always working to be better.

As america mourns the senseless killing of three baton rouge officers, some taking a disturbing message to social media. Clayton morris joins us now with the shocking reaction. Good morning, guys. Good morning. It is troubling. Its interesting to see which messages twitter decided to take down and which messages they decided to keep up. Like this one, armed pigs meet political consequences. A tweet that went out supporting black lives matter. And there you see the new emoji. They left that up . They left that up. Thats one thats up. They did pull down other ones like this one, no sympathy whatsoever for these pigs. I hope baton rouge i hope
baton rouge wont be the last. This tweet was taken down. Twitter left that first one up there that was pretty remarkable. They left this up, protestors standing in front of Police Officers saying we aint squared with black lives matter. Police officers standing there. Who takes these things off of twitter . Is it a person or is it an algorithm . Its somebody at twitter. Same thing as facebook. When enough people report a post or they have a problem, twitter will look into it or facebook will look into it. If it goes against their terms of service or decency clause, oftentimes its a matter of judgment of people. We had some political response from this. Were here at the Republican National convention. You can assume it would be about the convention. Baton rouge is driving the convention. Donald trump tweeting this or posting this on his Facebook Page. He said we grieve for the
officers killed in baton rouge today. How many Law Enforcement people have to die because of a lack of leadership in our country . We demand law and order. Thats their new line, were the law and order candidates. Mike pence said our country needs leadership, our police need support. Its time to renew americas commitment to law and order to make all of our people safe once more. Some of the conversation outside protesters sleeping outside overnight in kirkland square. Theyre saying theyre being asked to move because of the storms coming through. Coming right through the roof. Sounds like were being attacked. Exactly. Now that the clouds have lifted theyre probably going to be out protesting shortly. Thanks, clayton. Thanks. Meanwhile, its the movie Hillary Clinton does not want you to see. Democratic party is to feel the most valuable thing the world can ever produce. Pete just got a sneak peek

This is about buying and selling influence by foreign oligarchs and governments. When you follow the money, there are very few coincidences. What if the goal of the Democratic Party is to steal the most valuable thing the world has ever produced . And what is that . Hundreds packing the theater here in cleveland for the premiere last night of conservative filmmaker Dinesh Dsouzas brandnew documentary, hillarys america. It was a rowdy american and he wants to become the Michael Moore of the right. Hes becoming that. His Box Office Hit 2016, Obamas America is the second highest grossing documentary behind behind Michael Moores documentary. What are people going to see . Theyll see american politics traded away like never before. The Democratic Party purports to be the party of civil rights, im for the ordinary guy and for
the ordinary man and this movie blows that out of the water. The democrats support slaves. It actually shows that theres a sordid strain of oppression, subjugation from the beginning. The democrats went from slavery to enslavement. Corrupt big city bosses, corrupt unions. So Hillary Clinton is simply the gangster par excellence, and the worst manifestation of this sort of tradition. Well go check it out. The film is about to play right now. [ indiscernible ]. I knew some of the history, but a lot of it i didnt know. And it just breaks my heart that most of america hasnt seen this and doesnt know this. Do you feel like Hillary Clinton if you were a service member, do you feel like Hillary Clinton would have your back . I think the only type of back that Hillary Clinton would have for me in the military was if she was kicking us out the door into some country we probably should have no business being in. You know, the whole American Dream thing, i think the democrats actually do the opposite of it. They dont promote the American Dream. For the young people i would say that for one thing they need to wake up and they need to sue their universities because their universities are engaging in malpractice. Only giving them one side of history. And for africanamericans, theyre deceived. I found my way out and they can find their way out. So hes obviously hoping that the new movie is as popular as his antiobama movie was. Which was very popular. This debuted first in on
three theaters in los angeles and did very, very well. Outgrossing any other documentary this year. A lot of interest i know hillary doesnt want americans to see it. Did you like it . Yeah, it exposes the roots of the Democratic Party and the extent to which the clintons will go to get elected. The movie opens nationwide on july 22nd. Thanks, pete. We have two big hours straight ahead. We have donald trump joining us in three minute, top of the hour, and karl rove and Anthony Sabato jr. , speaking at the rnc, also here. Quicken loans has asked me to show you just how easy it is to secure financing for a dwelling like this in just a few earth minutes using Rocket Mortgage. We need only answer a few quick and simple questions. Name. Address. Income and employment history. Married . For 104 long and prosperous years. Desired down payment . This much. Im not sure what the Exchange Rate of earth dollars is. However, i am told that i have an
adequate amount of benjamins. Now Rocket Mortgage will pull my credit at no cost and provide a custom solution based on my financial information. And all thats left is to push this button. If i chose to express emotion, i would say that Rocket Mortgage has made me the happiest humanoid. In the galaxy. [whisper] rocket. See star trek beyond in theatres. Good morning to you and to your family. It is monday, its july 18th. Im Ainsley Earhardt. Look at this. We are live from cleveland for the rnc. But we begin with this fox news alert. Three more officers killed in cold blood, another Police Ambush. This time its in baton rouge. Hit officer down got a city officer down, shots fired wow. Brandnew information about the three officers that are lost. Meanwhile, in the wake of another attack, donald trump sticking to tough talk. We are the law and order candidates. Were going to change things around. Whats his message this morning . He will join us in 90 seconds. Well ask him about that. And he was the face of calvin klein. He had the job right after i had
it and now the Republican National convention, hell be a speaker. Antonio sabato jr. Takes the spotlight tonight, but this morning politics will get even sexier than what steve and i bring to the table when Antonio Sabato joins us live, because your mornings are better with friends. From the Huntington Convention center in the heart of cleveland right there on the shores of lake erie, fox friends for this very busy monday. We are indoors because there was a thunderstorm about an hour ago. There you see inside the cube thats the spot where on thursday night donald trump will get the nod from the Republican Party to be their guy to run for president of the United States. Right. But hes watching us now because hes ready to get on the set. Dont you get nervous with the crane camera they wont be able to find us. Its so wide, im like, please find our set. Were over here. Its a huge room. Three or four different sets within this room and lots of computers and a lot of hard work went into this. Right. Its really good. Going to change everything. All right. So we have a busy day of politics but we start with a fox news alert. Right. Steve, once again our country finds itself Mourning Police officers murdered in cold blood. Six officers in baton rouge, louisiana, shot, responding to a call about a guy with a gun. That man now identified as gavin eugene long of kansas city, missouri. Former marine. Apparently he was he had a mask on, he was dressed head to toe in body armor. And he had an ar15. Well, the responding officers coming under fire, playing out in chilling dispatch. Listen to this audio. Hit officer down, officer down
down we had an officer down. We need the deputies getting the one officer. Theyll be back in a second. Stand by. Three officers were executed. Three others were injured including one who is still fighting for his life this morning. Long was shot and killed there at the scene. All right. Its three minutes after the top of the hour, lets bring in donald trump. He joins us from i believe new york on this monday morning. Mr. Trump, good morning. Good morning. We dont know the motive at this point, but it does feel to a lot of people, donald trump, like things are spinning out of control. Well, it does. I mean, you look at so many different fronts. Its you know, radical islam. By the way he seems to be a member of that group also. Seems to be something going on there. But its very sad whats happening. Nation of islam. He is so mr. Trump bad, bad people. Bad people. No question about it. Really bad. What needs to be done to stop this . We you know, it seems this is happening more and more often, where were waking up and reporting things like this. Well, it would be wonderful if people could turn him in. He had a lot of hate and you look i looked at some of his videos, they were vicious and hateful. And really good if people would turn him in. People know, people have an idea in some cases. You look at some of the killers like in orlando as an example. It was all over that he was bad, something was going to explode. People could turn him in. If when theyre turned in like in the case of orlando, people did report him and nothing happened. And we had real experts that when they turn him in, they could nab him in some form. They could see before it was going to explode, but its not an easy situation. No question about it. I mean, its terrible. And what do you think of the president s tone yesterday . I think we need strength. I think we need somebody that can be a cheer leader. Hes been a great divider in
this country. I think Race Relations are the worst they have been. Theyre the statistically worse they have been in 18 years. I can tell you theyre bad and they havent been this bad in a long time. And we have somebody that really was in a position to do just the opposite, but this tremendous divide in this country. I see it, everybody sees it. Mr. Trump we had on brian had a great interview with stephen loomis, the head of cleveland detectives and he ripped our president. He essentially said the president has blood on his hands. He has said in interviews his divisive rhetoric partially to blame because hes validated the anticop narrative, black lives matter and certain members of the mainstream member. And then he asked the question, how the hell did we, the cops, ever become the bad guys in this country . Well, its true. I mean, you know, i watched the president and sometimes the words are okay. But you just look at the body
language and theres something going on. Look, theres something going on, and the words are not often what does that mean, theres something going on . Theres just a bad feeling, a lot of bad feeling about him. I see it too. Theres a lot of bad feeling about him. You know we have a country that has not been like this since i can remember it. You know, the president at a forum a week ago Newt Gingrich came out last sunday, a guy you respect a lot and almost your Vice President runnerup, and he said, look, the Africanamerican Community has a different experience when it comes to Law Enforcement and another guy you said, senator tim scott, said hes been stopped seven times, people dont know who he is, but hes senator from South Carolina and he believes he was stopped because hes black. Is there something on the other side that needs to be addressed too . Its probably something that
we really dont know and maybe we cant feel it unless were black. It is a its definitely something going on there also. That has to do with training and it has to do with something. But there is something going on that maybe, brian, we cant recognize or we cant see it unless youre black and its an experience. Theres no question about that. But you want to be president for all of america. Excuse . So how do you address how do you address the issues of africanamericans in america if youre a white guy . Well, you have to see and you have to put yourself in their position and you have to see whats going on. But, you know, were at point now where its so out of control and, you know, i hear this week i have to tell you, we dealt with the police. We built that arena, it came out incredibly well, but we have been dealing with the police. They are so sensitive and they have done thus far what wes just starting, so knock on wood as we say it, but they have been so professional. They have gone out of their way. Theyre being so nice to
everybody. Im talking about, white, black, i have seen it. They have been so professional. They have been so nice, so calm. So far, they have done an amazing job. Yeah. Theyre doing a great job. I will say this. I think the police of this country treated very unfairly. If an incident happens and certainly i hated watching those two events last week. I hated it and so did you. But if an incident happens, those things get blown up, you know, and they run for weeks. You know, the thousands and hundreds of thousands of great acts and the great job that they do, nobody gets to see that. I mean, they have been so outstanding. Some of the great people i know theyre police. They love doing it. Theyre proud to do it. And really, theyre under attack and now theyre under attack in the true sense of the word. We have to bring law and order back to this country, whether we like it or not. We have to bring law and order
back to this country. No games. Thats your theme tonight, make america safe again. You sat down for lesley stahl for your first joint interview with mike pence. Lets watch a little bit of this and get your reaction. What do you think about your running mates campaign and the tone and the negativity of it . I think this is a good man whos been talking about the issues of the that the American People call about. Name calling, lyin ted . In the essay i wrote, campaigns ought to be about something more important than one candidates election. He apologized for being a negative i understand that. Ill give you an example. Hillary clinton is a liar. Hillary clinton i was just proven last week. Hillary clinton by the way Hillary Clinton is a crook. Thats negative. Shes crooked hillary. I dont i didnt ask him to do it, but i dont think he should do it. Because its different for him. How do you feel about the
interview . Do you think lesley stahl was fair . Actually, i thought she was fair. I thought it was a good interview. I think were different people. Mike pence and i are very different and thats part of the reason it works. And by the way, he was my first choice. You know, it was amazing the way the news the media, you talk about crooked. The media is so distorted and so false. I read a certain person on cnn saying oh, well, it wasnt really my first actually my first choice and i delayed one day because of the horrible tragedy that just took place. If i would have had it then, you talk about you talk about getting hit on. I would have been inappropriate, yeah. It would have been so inappropriate and what happened is i delayed it a day for that. It was never any thought and then all of a sudden, they said because i delayed it for the tragedy, they said, well, maybe hes having second you know, second thoughts. What happened what happened it got carried oh, they wrote a source in the new york
times. A total lie. Such a lie. And when you told them it was a lie, it didnt matter because they kept it going. Because we told them, total lie. But they kept it going. Tell you what, the media is so dishonest its just incredible. So that New York Times story saying youre upset that it leaked to the Indianapolis Star ahead of time and that you were having second thoughts then was totally false . I didnt know anything leaked to the Indianapolis Star. I dont read the Indianapolis Star, its not high on my list to be honest with you. And theyre saying oh, about the Indianapolis Star. I said i havent read the Indianapolis Star. No, the media made a big thing out of nothing. I delayed it for one day and they made that for that reason. Mike pence was my first choice. He was my only choice. I spoke to he and his wife the night before. Once i said that, it was over. Thats me. Once i said that by the way, it was a great choice. You saw it on 60 minutes which i thought it was fair. I actually thought it was a
terrific interview but theyre two very different people. Indeed. And you just mentioned the wife. Your wife is speaking tonight, Melania Trump. We understand shes been practicing. What is the headline of her address tonight . Well, shes going to be speaking about her love of the country. And dont forget, she came into the country. She worked hard. She came into the country. She gained legal status as the expression goes. And shes a terrific person and a terrific woman. And she is going to ill bet she gives a great speech and shes worked hard on it. Are you talking with her . Well, i may speak to be honest, i want to see this. We went so much time building the center and it got built properly. Its beautiful. Really one of the most beautiful i have seen of its kind and were very proud of it. And i want to see that. And i certainly i want to really id love to be there when my wife speaks. So the answer is yes, i will be there. You do have your own plane, donald trump. I do. Have you not decided yet or will you be there . Yeah, in my mind, i just dont want to say it, so ill keep it quiet, just among us, ill be there. I want to watch. It will be very exciting. Hey, crew, do not tell anybody. Your secret is good here. Under no circumstances can anybody know. Thats right. All right. Donald trump joining us from new york on the phone. It sounds like hes headed to cleveland. Thank you very much, sir. Thank you for joining us. See you later, bye. Good luck this week. Meanwhile from politics back to the breaking news. The latest cop ambush, the head of security at the rnc says he knows who can share the blame. Its deplorable. The president does have blood on his hands. How will Police Respond and how will ohios open carry policy affect security . Well get a firsthand look, coming up. Look whos in our greenroom. Bret baier, karl rove and Antonio Sabato jr. , we have a
huge show still coming up. Live in cleveland. I feel like theyre ignoring us. You do what it takes to be healthy. But can your multivitamin do more for your immune health .

Befoburning, the pinsandneedles of diabetic nerve pain, these feet were the first in my family to graduate from college, raised active twin girls, and trained as a nurse. But i couldnt bear my diabetic nerve pain any longer. So i talked to my doctor and he prescribed lyrica. Nerve damage from diabetes causes diabetic nerve pain. Lyrica is fda approved to treat this pain. Lyrica may cause serious allergic reactions or suicidal thoughts or actions. Tell your doctor right away if you have these, new or worsening depression, or unusual changes in mood or behavior. Or swelling, trouble breathing, rash, hives, blisters, muscle pain with fever, tired feeling or blurry vision. Common side effects are dizziness, sleepiness, weight gain and swelling of hands, legs, and feet. Dont drink alcohol while taking lyrica. Dont drive or use machinery until you know how lyrica affects you. Those who have had a drug or alcohol problem may be more likely to misuse lyrica. Now i have less diabetic nerve pain. And i love helping little ones get off on the right foot. Ask your doctor about lyrica. In the wake of the Deadly Police shootings in baton rouge yesterday, and in dallas before that, a Cleveland Police union is making an emergency request to suspend open carry gun laws to the rnc and governor kasich says his hands are tied. Anna kooiman is joining us. Theyre asking him to stop it, can he . Hes saying no, he cant. Here in ohio though, state law allows licensed firearm owners to wear their weapons in public. That law stands here at the rnc with the exception of that secure zone inside of quicken loans arena. People are allowed to walk around cleveland though outside of there including its 1. 7 mile event zone with their guns. Water guns and tennis balls are not allowed, but firearms are, as long as theyre not specifically banned in the buckeye state. The president of the Cleveland Police patrolmens association
is calling for the cleveland open carry laws to be outlawed here in Cuyahoga County this week after Police Officers were killed in baton rouge yesterday. And in dallas a week and a half ago. Heres what he said earlier on fox friends. Theres no guns inside the hard zone. Thats about 6 1 2 block radius around quicken loans arena. If the governor cant do it, we believe that he can. Im not sure why hes saying that. But if he cant do that, we expect him to get on his horse and help us. Well, governor kasichs office did release this statement, they said ohio governors do not have the power to arbitrarily suspend federal and state constitutional rights. But loomis goes on the argue this is not an attack on the Second Amendment or an attack on open carry. He said its about protecting Law Enforcement and people in the few blocks around the convention. Well, the union is also requested that clevelands police chief change his plans right now. The officers are expected to be on post by themselves in some
areas without partners around them. He thinks they should be in groups and they should have the protection of their vehicles whenever possible. Theyre doubling up on teams in new york, boston and in other places. In new orleans from now on, no Single Police cars will show up. Everywhere two cars this is getting a lot of attention here because, you know, youre going through security and youre not allowed to have an umbrella with a metal tip on the end of it. Youre not allowed to have a can of tuna fish with you if you wanted to bring that with you, or water guns or tennis balls, but allowed a weapon . And the president of the association told us that hes the biggest pro nra guy there is, but he said we should not have the guns. In light of what we have been seeing. Yeah. Anna. Just ahead, mike pence waste nothing time hitting Hillary Clintons policy. The instability in turkey that led to the coup, i think that is all a result of a
Foreign Policy of Hillary Clinton and barack obama that has led from behind. Will voters respond to this new face on the campaign trail . Bret baier is live from cleveland. How are you . Great to see you. When my doctor told me i have agerelated macular degeneration, amd we came up with a plan to help reduce my risk of progression. And everywhere i look. Im reminded to stick to my plan. Including Preservision Areds 2.

Its 24 minutes after the hour. A couple of quick headlines and we start with a fox news alert. Another Disturbing Police shooting this one taking place in milwaukee, wisconsin. An officer ambush while sitting in his own patrol car. 31yearold brandon barinowsky, shot in the arm yesterday. He is expected to survive. The suspect then shot and killed
himself. Another alert to bring you right now. A tragic one. An American College student has now just been confirmed as one of the victims of the nice terror attack. Nicholas leslie, a junior at uc berkeley had been studying abroad. A father and a son from texas are also among the dead. We are now learning that the terrorists had researched his route just days before that attack. He also sent a chilling text message just moments before that rampage calling for more weapons. Nearly 50 years after a Daring Rescue in vietnam, an Army Helicopter pilot will receive the medal of honor later this morning. 86yearold charles kettles of michigan saved 40 ambushed soldiers, making four trips under heavy fire. Those are your headlines. See you back here in a little bit. Steve, brian and ainsley . Thank you, heather. We are hours away from the first speeches here at the rnc. Tonight, Melania Trump takes the center stage along with an impressive list of speakers. What can we expect . Here to weigh in, special report host bret baier. Great to see you in person. Great to see you walking. Never saw you walking before. Great show last night as usual, but of course everything changed because of the shootings in baton rouge. But you had your allstar panel there. Lets for a second if we can look at whats happening tonight because we finally have something to preview and we h e have we actually have a roster. The headliner is probably for my money, Melania Trump. Definitely. A long list of speakers are impressi impressive, from rick perry, you have stars like rick baio. You have the benghazi guys, john tiegen. You have Lieutenant General michael flynn. The number two pick in this thing. Willie robertson. And Antonio Sabato jr. Make america sexy again. No relationship to larry
sabato. How important is it to hear melania speak . I think its important because we havent heard her from that too much. I think we heard from one time on the Campaign Trial back in iowa. I think it will be interesting for america to see her, i think. Number two, just telling that story of donald trump behind the scenes. Yeah. What hes like at home i think is really one of the goals by the end of the week. When we had trump on 20 minutes ago, we said wed hear her story because she came to this country essentially the legal way. But youre suggesting we might hear stuff about behind the scenes at home, like he never takes out the garbage . To make him human. People see him and they think this is a bigger than life figure. Shes there with him. Indeed. Has a son. I think youll hear a lot of that as you go forward. I do think that tonight because of all that we have experienced over the last two weeks it will
take at the beginning a different tone and the theme is how to make america safe again. Theyll hit on the security aspects. And they have to do that because right now theyre trailing in most polls by one or two. So he has to get four points out of this convention . Yeah. The fact that hes neck and neck and has had some pretty bad weeks of press is kind of interesting. She obviously took a big hit after the email scandal. Huge. And shell probably get a bounce as well, out of philadelphia. He chose mike pence obviously to be his running mate. They were on with lesley stahl on 60 minutes last night. Lets play a little bit of that interview and get your reacten. You need toughness. We need strength. Obamas weak. Hillarys weak. And part of it is that, a big part of it. We need law and order. We need strong borders. Whether it be the horrific attack in france, the inspired attacks here in the United States, the instability in turkey that led to a coup, i
think that is all a result of the Foreign Policy of Hillary Clinton and barack obama thats led from behind. Theyre making it is very clear if you want the same stuff, vote for her. If you want a change, vote for me. I think that came through last night. There was on substance a lot said this i think they have to be happy with. He sounded happy with the interview. I said there were awkward interviews. Like the iraq situation. Finishing sentencing. Part of it is the fact he havent been in an interview together. Its their first date. I think theyll deploy separately, and you know, this is all about trump really. In the big picture. This is what this you know what mike pence has and how many people are focused on are his Foreign Policy. On the Foreign Policy committee, he understands it. I think when things come up, donald trump might have some relief there on those
hes his joe biden is that what youre saying . In a way. He went overseas a bunch. Hes been involved in a lot of overseas in the situations with capitol hill. And, you know, as governor obviously had the had to be an executive in dealing with trade deals. Cbs had a poll saying nine out of ten americans dont have an opinion on him. So were all anxious to hear him speak. Hell be speaking on wednesday night. When will we see you again . Special report . Yeah. Throughout the day, well see. Well see you all week. Hes going on the on tv as much as the test pattern in some homes. Thank you. See you at least at 6 00 eastern time. Brandnew details coming in from the scene of the horrific Police Ambush in baton rouge, louisiana. The two lead men in the investigation join us with an update from baton rouge itself. That will be next. And the big show ahead as we rock n roll in our greenroom here in cleveland.

We actually did not have to do any cardiovascular work after yesterdays show because we have it is really a threemile walk from the inside of this to the outside. Its less than a mile from where we are sitting here at the
Huntington Convention center other to the cue. Did you have to give yourself a seal of approval . I wanted to see how many ballo balloons were in the rafters. And tonight, Melania Trump is speaking, joni ernst, rudy giuliani. Day one of the convention. Dont dismiss, i know youre not, senator cotton. He fought in the war, now rocketing up through washington. A big, long list. I was naming a few. Big, long list. Most speakers get between five and ten minutes. Its hours long. A lot of the highlights here. How much are we giving heather . You want to go and give her contact Heather Nauert hey, brian. We get along great, lets do it. The contract. Good morning. Good morning to all of you. 35 minutes after the hour. A couple of News Headlines right now. The manhunt has been intensifying for a suspected killer. We are learning that a daring dash out of a south florida courthouse that we told you about yesterday was a well coordinated escape. Police arresting four accomplices accused of helping the murder suspect Dayonte Resiles flee the courtroom. Two accomplices were actually inside the courtroom. They signalled for the suspect to run out to the get away car as he awaited a Death Penalty hearing. One accomplice admits to bringing the escapee a change of clothes so he could get out. Wow. Unreal. That manhunt intensifying today. Well, more trouble for rev reverend al sharpton. A man is calling him a crook and a fraud. Reggie anders claimed he paid sharpton 16,000 to help him with the Discrimination Suit against verizon, saying that sharpton promised to publicize
his issues and he never did. So now hes suing sharpton and verizon. The Restaurant Owner saying he doesnt want cops dying in there is eating his own words. The Chinese Restaurant is stirring up a new controversy and getting threats after a sheriffs deputy claims the owner asked them not to come back because they upset customers. An owners son said it was a big misunderstanding and today, cops can eat for free. Sports fans tend to wear their emotions on their sleeve. We all know that. But this little pirates fan went through all of them. Look at him right there. Cheering, clapping, taking a break. Even having a little snack. His team battles in the marathon 18inning game against the washington nationals. Well, six hours later, he went home happy. The Pittsburgh Pirates walking off with the win. The little guy cheering and then crying in celebration. Got to give it to those parents too for keeping him in line for all of those hours. Love that. Those are your headlines. Is that Good Parenting . I dont know. But was he related to the camera guy . Hes cute, adorable. Did anyone hit a grounder . Because he sat for so many hours. Do you recognize this guy to my immediate left . Its karl rove jr. No, not a junior. Thats right. Im thinking of sabato jr. My dad was a louis. Got it. Which one is the calvin klein model, you or sabato jr. . I gave him some tips on skin conditioning. Moisturizers and so forth. Yeah, he seemed interested in my workout routine. Well, thats unusual because your department is usually politics. Donald trump made it very clear that one of the reasons he picked mike pence was for party unity. So the party starts today, will they be unified in four days . I think pence was a very smart choice. He is both a a former member of congress and a governor. Used to making decisions. He came from the private sector and a strong conservative,
principled. A really decent guy. I got to know him when i was at the white house. Didnt always agree, but hes a straight shooter. He said, im with you or not with you on this one. So for conservatives who are worried about trump very reassuring. Very good choice. I know you were flying in so you missed the 60 minutes interview. A subtle way of at the inter appear on your radio show because there will be questions. I dont think it was subtle. Subtly is not your strength, my friend. Security is a theme, security is a theme tonight. You like the roster of guests and what stands out for you . Look, we have some people some people know, senator cotton, joni ernst, the only woman veteran in the senate. Ryan zinke who is a navy s. E. A. L. A congressman from montana. But ill tell you, i would bet
people that people will be blown way are with karen vaughn, mother of the fantastic navy s. E. A. L. Who died in afghanistan, and john tiegen he wrote 13 hours. I strongly recommend it and the movie is fantastic. Very faithful to the book. My sense is when we turn off the television tonight, americas likely to say those three peo e people, the mother of navy s. E. A. L. , and the two and the two men who fought at the battle of benghazi were the highlights of the evening. Now that the Never Trump Movement is over, is it time for the gop, the Republican Party, to rally around trump . Yeah. Look, this will be a process not an event. Simply that, you know, the defeat of the never trump forces in the rules committee is not going to be the end. We have actually seen this drama play out once before. 1980, ted kennedy at the Democratic National convention made it all the way to the floor, attempted to have a conscience clause. And failed. And look, theres still a lot of healing to do. And theres got we cant have, you know, recriminations from the top of the ticket. We have to be confident. Forward looking and say i know i can earn the support of all my fellow republicans. One of the noticeable people absent, the governor of this state. John kasich. I think weve looked into it and not in the history of american politics has a sitting governor sat out his partys nominating convention in his home state. Yeah. Well, its an unusual moment. And it shows the acrimony that exists still between the Presumptive Republican nominee who will be the nominee as of thursday, and his competitors. Doesnt that help hillary ultimately . Yeah. But people are people. Theres got to be a conscious effort to put this behind. Yesterday on fox, somebody talk about the 1860 convention. I said remember how seward was
angry and he was the front runner and he was upset on the third ballot. Well, seward sends an emissary or maybe seward himself meets with lincoln. We dont know what took place in the several hour long meeting but when he left, everything was okay. And this is a process. So lets see. Having been through in 2000, raw feelings after the primary. You have to spend a lot of time right through the election making certain that everybody is being drawn in. Not one of the guys who did get over it is governor perry. With marcus luttrell. Who is also going to be i suspect a figure tonight that people are going to turn off that television and say, we heard from some remarkable americans who dont hold the Public Office and okay. Texas lone survivor. Thats right. Karl, thanks. Great new details coming in from the scene of the horrific Police Ambush in baton rouge. Well have an update from baton rouge. Thatll be next. And he was the face of calvin klein and now the Republican National convention, Antonio Sabato jr. Takes the spotlight tonight. But first hes stopping by our greenroom with all of our fox friends friends. Theres tucker and geraldo and pete. Nobody leaves. And sheriff. Sheriff clarke. Yep. If legalzoom has your back.

Weve got a fox news alert. The country finds itself mourning yet again as three more Police Officers are assassinated in cold blood. Six cops in baton rouge, louisiana, shot, responding to a call about a man now idd as gavin eugene long, armed with an
assault style rifle. Three officers executed, three others injured. Including one fighting for his life. Joining us from baton rouge, louisiana, state Police Superintendent colonel michael edmondson, and the sheriff. Thank you for being with us. Our thoughts and our prayers are with you all of this morning and were big champions of the men and women in blue. Whats the latest on this investigation . Well, we were able to forensically identify gavin long. Probably some time around 1 00 a. M. This morning. What was important to us, you heard the people reporting that it was indeed him. We wanted to make sure it was him. We got his fingerprints. We got finger prints out of missouri that positively tells us that was the guy that killed the Police Officers yesterday. Thats important as we put the puzzle together. Three Police Officers lost their lives, another is fighting for his life. It is critically important that we get it right and were perfect on this. So were going to were seeking out those individuals that he encountered while he was here. We interviewed some people that he talked to. Why did he come to baton rouge, and what was his motive, and why did he kill those Police Officers yesterday . Why did he target the Police Officers . It was an ambush type of attack. We need to find out why this happened. Its important. Absolutely. We want to know what the motive is. Do we have any idea whether or not he belonged to any organizations . I know he was a former member of nation of islam. He was also as well a marine once upon a time. Sir, what else do we do know about this guy . Well, not a whole lot right now. All those things are sitting out there, social media, you know how big that is. We want to take every piece of that and apply it to facts. We have a lot of evidence. Lets apply it to the fact and what happened yesterday. Thats what were trying to do. Michael, can you tell us the condition of the officers the three struggling for their lives . Yeah. We have one deputy that was killed yesterday. We have two in the hospital. Both of them are underwent surgery yesterday. One was shot in the arm and the shoulder area. Hes going to have to undergo a couple more surgeries the doctor told me last night, but he should have a full recovery. The other deputy is fighting for his life. He was shot twice in the torso, once in the head. Hes on life support. But his condition today is no different than it was last night. And he is literally fighting for his life as we speak. Well, we know the nation is praying for these folks. Colonel and sheriff, thank you very much for joining us from baton rouge with the very latest. Thank you for your service. And everything you do to keep our country safe. Thank you. All right. Coming up straight ahead the rnc kicks off as you know tonight. One of the speakers taking center stage, Antonio Sabato jr. Yep. Hell be speaking live. Hes standing by in our greenroom rocking it out with rocking it out in cleveland and surrounded by his friends. For some reason they wont leave. All right. Well, the local media is going wild over the fact that the former underwear model, actor, set to speak here tomorrow night. At the rnc. Thats right. But who has a better message about freedom, opportunity and the American Dream than that man, Antonio Sabato jr. , who joins us live. Good morning. Good morning. That got our attention. So antonio, the twitter left
is all upset that you are coming to speak on behalf of donald trump. Why is that . Because i guess i work in hollywood and im supposed to be a democrat you know, Democratic Party. But im not. Why not . Because it doesnt exist anymore. That party is gone. Right now were talking about liberals who are mostly socialist and very hypocrite and they have a lot of ignorance. Have you always been a republican . I havent you know, i was a big fan of ronald reagan. I loved him a lot. I appreciated him a lot. And then growing up, i was a democrat. I even liked clinton, but then you start having kids and a family. You start looking at things differently. You start seeing things the way they are and you dont like certain things. I havent liked the Democratic Party for a while. Im very you know, i support donald trump, im here to support donald. Im going to speak for him and speaking tonight. What about being born in rome, does that give you a
perspective and being a first generation america . I love this country so much because of what its done for my family over the last 20 some years. I have been working here as an acer for a long time actor for a long time. I guess i appreciate it more than people who are born because i respect it. I have seen what this administration has done. Its disgraceful. Whats your message for the hollywood celebrity saying if donald trump wins theyre moving to canada. Go ahead, move. See you later. More work for you. More hypocrisy. They know theyre not moving. Theyre going to stay in the greatest country in the world. I want to know why they dont want to vote for trump, whats the reason . They cant give you a specific reason. The only reason to vote for hillary is because shes woman. I mean, shes failed as a first lady, shes failed as a secretary of state and now shes failing right now running against donald trump. Without giving away all of the specifics, give us the headline of your speech tonight. Im talking about my heritage, talking about how hard it was to come to this country. Im going to talk about how much i love this country and i love god. And just basically that im here for donald trump and supporting him in every way, shape and form. Are you going to be nervous . Im very excited because this is a passion for me. My family is excited with me. Yeah, im good. Because i have jesus on my side. Im very much a spiritual person and the speech starts with that. So it will be a good night. Well be watching. Cant wait. We have a huge show still ahead. Geraldo and sheriff david clarke will join us live, next. This is lulu, our newest dog. Mom didnt want another dog. She said its too much work. Lulus hair just floats. Uhh help me doorbell mom, check this out. Wow. Swiffer sweeper, and dusters. This is what im talking about. Look at that. Sticks to this better than it sticks to lulu. Thats your hair lulu mom, can we have another dog . laughing trap and lock up to 4x more dirt, dust and hair than the store brand stop cleaning. Start swiffer ing and i quit smoking with im chantix. I decided to take chantix to shut everybody else up about me quitting smoking. I was going to give it a try, but i didnt really think it was going to really happen. After one week of chantix, i knew i could quit. Along with support, Chantix Varenicline is proven to help people quit smoking. Chantix definitely helped reduce my urge to smoke. Some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. Some had seizures while taking chantix. If you have any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. Tell your doctor about any history of Mental Health problems, which could get worse or of seizures. Dont take chantix if youve had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. If you have these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away as some can be lifethreatening. Tell your doctor if you have heart or blood vessel problems, or develop new or worse symptoms. Get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. Decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. Use caution when driving or operating machinery. Most common sideaffect is nausea. Being a nonsmoker feels great. Ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. Good monday morning to you and your family. Its july 18th. Im Ainsley Earhardt. We are live from cleveland, but we start with this breaking news. Three more officers killed in the line of duty by another gunman with a vendetta against cops. This time in baton rouge. Officer down shots fired, officer down got a city officer down, shots fired wow. We have new information on these three officers who were killed and lost their lives and new reactions from sheriff david clarke as well as geraldo. In the wake of another attack, donald trump sticking to the tough talk. We are the law and order candidates. Were going to change things around. So what are the law and order candidates plans to keep america safe . That is the theme tonight here at the rnc. And were just hours from the first speeches at the rnc. Youre thinking, finally. And Donald Trumps wife, melania, expected to share her American Dream story and what it means to be an american now and married to that billionaire. What the donald just told us about his wifes speech will be revealed to you, because not only are you cool, but you know mornings are better with friends. It is day one of the Republican National convention and brian, you are right. We have been waiting a long time, it here. Finally. A lot to look forward to. A lot on the line for donald trump and michael pence. Absolutely. And they are going to be officially accepting the nomination of the Republican Party on thursday night at the
q and this morning things are quiet. As you can see right there. But donald trump it sounds like may be in attendance tonight when Melania Trump, his wife, gives one of the keynote addresses. Talking about what its like to be married to the donald. We have two guests with us. Guys, whos who, do you know . Which is which . Do you know . I have a bigger hat. [ laughter ] i forgot it. Geraldo is here. And sheriff david clarke is here. Well talk to you in a moment. But first, some breaking news. Yeah, authorities confirming the cold blooded killer was targeting police when he executed three baton rouge officers. The officers were responding to an emergency call about somebody with a gun. Six of them, they were shot, before the killer was finally neutralized. The police this man is shooting at the police. I just got here, he has a mask on. Looking like a lizard, baby. He is military. I dont know who this man is. Wearing a mask. Leyland vitter is live in baton rouge. She was right, he is military. Brandnew information on the investigation. Hey, leland, where are they going with this . Reporter well, good morning, guys. Right now theres a manhunt under way. A quiet manhunt but sources tell me theyre looking for one person that this shooter had contact with. Theyre trying to track his cell phones among other things. We dont have a name or an identification or a description, but theyre very concerned that gavin long may have had accomplices. Not people helping him shoot, but helping him to ambush the Police Officers. He was in baton rouge for six days and he was quote, hunting Police Officers. He found this gas station as well as a car wash that he thought that Police Officers would be at. That is when the 911 call came in about a man with a gun. When that call came in, officers
rushed to that scene, including the officers who were there at the Convenience Store at the time. Little did they know they were racing into an ambush. Officer down, officer down shots fired. We have an officer down. We need the bearcat now. The deputies, getting the one officer. Theyll be back in a second. Stand by. Reporter now the three officers who died, officer montrell jackson, 32 years old, he has been on the force for ten years. His friends describe him as a gentle giant. Brad garafola, 24year veteran of the sheriffs department. Four kids. The sheriff earlier was truly heartbroken over the loss. And matthew get rald, he started to patrol on his own. But service to his country was what he was all about. He was a former marine and a
former black hawk helicopter pilot. All targeted by someone who wanted to simply kill Police Officers. We want to find out why did he come to baton rouge. What was his motive . And why did he kill those Police Officers yesterday . Whyd did he target Police Officers . It was an ambushtype style attack. And weve got to put this puzzle together to find out why it happened. Its important. Reporter gavin long, 29 years old, had spent five years in the United States marine corps. But not in the combat Arms Division of that. The search of his social media shows he was militant and violent not only towards white people in general, but specifically towards Police Officers and now the fbi is trying to run down who he may have had contact with outside of the state of louisiana. As many louisiana Police Officers now truly view they have a target on their back from who else may be out there. Back to you guys. Yeah. Three officers dead, three of them are injured. Seven children among those three. Yeah. They will not have their fathers. Terrible. Thank you very much. Geraldo and the sheriff are with us. Sheriff clarke, we dont know what the motive is at this point, but to a lot of people watching whats going on here, in dallas, and everywhere, it feels like things are spiraling out of control. Well, they have been out of control. You know, yeah, they have to try to determine the motive but the motive to me is irrelevant, because you have five dead cops. The shootings of Police Officers are up this week. War has been declared on the american Police Officer. I said that probably on this program two years ago. After two of new yorks finest, lu and ramos were gunned down sitting in their cruiser, shot by a man who wanted to avenge mike brown. I see a pattern of black racism going on that nobody wants to get near. Look at that situation in maryland on live tv the reporter
was shot by right. By a guy who claimed not to like white people. You have the guy in dallas, you have this there have been other ones. But again thats one of those things that nobody wants to touch. Look, this bloodbath is going to continue until president obama, Loretta Lynch and others denounce this antipolice sentiment from black lives matter. That is a hateful ideology. They spew vile and vitriol in the name of virtue. But im tired of the words, you know this is horrific. I heard the president yesterday. Thats the proper thing to say at the time. Those are empty words. He just hosted Deray Mckesson at the white house within the last coup black lives matter founder. Exactly. See, i wanted to separate the two. Ill get to black lives matter, but let me agree with the sheriff. Here you have eight dead cops. This is unprecedented, particularly when you combine it with the other officers, lu and
ramos killed in new york and so forth. If cops arent safe, if cops are targeted, if cops are being murdered in the street, then the very fabric of our society is in peril. I see this not as a political issue. This is an existential crisis. This is why is this happening . Why are they killing cop sans excellent question. There are abhorrent people that are motivated by their own hatred, by their own racism, own internal racism, by their frustrations. Whatever motivates i dont care, but if cops are filing threatened as they feeling threatened as they try to protect us. How can they hold it together . Sheriff, this is what you were talking about earlier. The president in his rhetoric has essentially validated the black lives Matter Movement. Their message. Thats it. He breathes life into the organization. I think its time for the liberal mainstream media, meaning the New York Times and the Washington Post, meaning
the tv like cnn, to denounce this antipolice rhetoric. Theyre not doing do you think theyll do it. I dont know, but ill tell you what. I sat up and saw an article in the usa today the other day talking about the antimuslim sentiment that develops after a terror attack. I have never seen an article in the New York Times or Washington Post decrying the antipolice sentiment thats been sweeping this country for the last couple of years. Well, im not so sure of that. I think i am. I think that people are repulsed by these attacks on cops. You know what just happened, geraldo, in milwaukee, an officer was ambushed yesterday. Yesterday in tulsa, a man was shot these my point, brian. Lets move past the politics. This is something that the right and the left should unite on. We should surround the cops, we should have six people hugging every cop in the streets. We should protect them. But youre asking the why. I will get to the why. Right now, i am concerned about the fact that it is happening
that cops are being murdered. If cops feel unsafe, just think about the consequences. We wont have any more cops. Were not going to have any kind of civilization. You cant they are the line that protects us from anarchy. Civilization but the president why doesnt he have the urgency that you have . I think the president is hes too cool for school. He approaches thing from an intellectual rather that an an emotional or impassioned way. I would like the president to go out today and start Walking Around with cops. These cops are us. They are everything to us. Now, to the sheriffs point about black lives matter, i think to deny that the black community specifically and to a certain but slightly lesser extent the Latino Community feels that they are disenfranchised and target today
often by cops is false. Look at ferguson let me finish here. In ferguson, yes, michael brown, his death was justifiable homicide by that cop. But the remember what the Justice Department also found. That the Ferguson Police department was being supported by tickets given to poor black people driving around. That is a fact found by our Justice Department and you cant deny it. But what about eric holder . I dont like to combine these issues, but i think that to pretend that but geraldo but a lot of that is just emotional junk because when you look at the research and you look at the data, when you look at the participation rates in criminal activity, young black males are overrepresented. I agree. I agree. But yet thats the president s biggest failing. 50 of the Violent Crime that occurs in this country. So when i ask people, i say show
me the data and the research. The raw numbers you are talking about was debunked by the National Institute of justice. The research arm of the department of justice under eric holder. They say we can explain the president s biggest failing and citations and its based on first of all, ferguson is 80 black. When you make a traffic stop, who do you think for the most part its going to involve . Yeah. When you investigate crime, by the way, the victims are black as well. Thats another thing that the president doesnt want to talk about. The black on black crime, its a bigger problem in this country. The problem, sheriff, is the narrative has become in the mainstream media, theyre bad guys. Not true. But its the narrative. But the president i agree let me lead the sheriff with this. I totally agree that to me, putting so much of my hope and aspiration in the first black president in the United States, i feel that hes this is his biggest area of underperformance or failure to fix what ails urban america. Well, you know what . When you mentioned about what people feel and what they
believe, i said its emotional junk, theyre fed this nonsense continually. There are people out there, this has turned into the cottage industry. Race hustling, people like al sharpton, go in and start telling people how bad i dont think you give due credit to the fears of black moms who are more fearful of their kids going out at night of the cops than they are of the crooks. A black male i know too many of them as a former street lawyer. As a black male, 15 to 34, the number one cause of death homicide. At the hands on that, i stand shoulder to shoulder with you on that one. Sheriff and geraldo, thanks so much. All right. Were just a few hours away from another trump taking center stage. Donalds wife melania will highlight the speeches tonight. Well show you what donald trump is telling us that hes talking to his wife about. Dont forget the sheriffs speaking. Thats right. Before he was a congressman and a president ial candidate, he was americas youngest mayor and hes opening up to fox friends for the first time on television about multiple attempts on his life.

Well see. In a few days hell address the American People from the rnc as the official republican nominee for president of the United States. But, as he prepares for that theres another trump headlining tonights festivities here in cleveland. John roberts is live outside of trump tower in new york city with the latest. Hey, john. Ainsley, brian and steve, yes, its Melania Trumps turn in the spotlight tonight. A big night for the trump family, the first time shes given a speech on an enormous stage. She spent the weekend in new jersey practicing the week. Its the theme of make america safe again. Shell talk about her experience coming here from slovenia and shell stress she did it the legal way. This is all going into the theme i guess of law and order that the Trump Campaign has now really adopted. Mike pence and donald trump suggesting that they are the law and order candidates. They were asked last night on 60 minutes by correspondent lesley stahl whether they thought they had what it takes to keep this country safe in terms of national security. Heres what they said. Were both ready. I have no doubt. We need toughness. We need strength. Obamas weak. Hillarys weak. And part of it is that, a big part of it. We need law and order. We need strong borders. One of the reasons i said yes in a heart beat to run with this man is because he embodies american strength. I know that he will provide that kind of broad shouldered american strength on the global stage as well. Now, last hour on fox friends donald trump often let the cat out of the bag and said hes going to be there tonight for his wife melanias speech and we are hearing talk he may actually introduce her on stage. Working hard to confirm that story. Well get back to you when we
do. So john, if he does come out and introduces her on stage, it would be a mistake for the balloon guy to think now is the time right . Yeah. Theres got to be a safety catch on the balloons or a big sign that says do not open until thursday night. Good enough. No problem. John roberts, thank you. That would be lovely if he introduced her. It would add drama. Denn denn dennis cue sen itch is known as the boy mayor. They said will you get him off the way . I said if i get the right money. Thats next. Hes never told this story before.

Another Disturbing Police shooting this morning. An officer ambushed sitting in his patrol car in milwaukee, wisconsin. Brand Brandon Baranowski shot in the chest and the arms. He was responding to a Domestic Violence call. He is expected to survive and the suspect shot and killed himself. The terrorist behind the
nice truck attack was radicalized by isis a few weeks ago. We now learn he researched his route just days before the attack and he sent a chilling text message, calling for more weapons. Also this morning we are learning that an American College student has now been confirmed as one of the 84 victims. Nicholas leslie was a junior at uc berkeley. He was studying abroad. A father and his young son from texas also among the dead. Those are your headlines. See you back here in 20 minutes. Steve, brian and ainsley . All right, heather. Cant forget about what happened in nice. Unbelievable. By the way, terrorists, shocker. Not a crazy guy. Were in cleveland for the rnc. We have been covering the other stories as well. But this city, it wasnt always a beautiful city. Very pretty today. We were talking about that. Back in the late 70s, it was one of the most contentious times in clevelands history. At the center of it all was the socalled boy mayor, Dennis Kucinich. Earlier you heard about how he came to lead cleveland, but i spoke with him about something hes never talked about on television. About the time he was almost assassinated. Not once, not twice. Take a look. Were a little more than a mile from city hall, but right here, dennis, this is the former headquarters. What happened with this building . The city had actually sold it to its competitor. And created the monopoly in cleveland. I intervened with a Citizens Campaign that blocked the sale and that resulted in me running for mayor. You know, when was took office they wanted it to go away. I was told by the biggest bank, we will not renew the citys credit unless you, dennis, agree to sell the citys Municipal Electric system to the
cleveland Electrical Illuminating Company and i said no. On december 15, 1978, cleveland trust followed through and they put the city into default. I lost the next election because people really didnt understand what had happened. You see it. Does it bring back do you get a little knot in your stomach . Let me tell you something, i had a sign across the building when i was in, that said power to the people. Muni light. The Cleveland Electric system is still alive. Along the way as you tried to save the Power Company for the people of cleveland though, people started to come after you. We might have to get kucinich out of the way, will you take the job . I said if the money is right ill take it. I never talk about this before, i want you to know. There was one attempt in january of 1977. High powered rifle shot through my house, just missed. Then there was this moment in
october of 1978 when i was supposed to be the grand marshal in a parade. There was an assassination plot at the time, but i didnt go to the parade because i ended one a bleeding ulcer and i was rushed to a local hospital. Your ulcer saved your life . Absolutely. Let me say that i live every day with a grateful heart. The fact they tried to kill you three times when you were in Public Service here its must have you question whether or not this was the right line of business to go into. I had a job to do and i did it. And, you know, it was an extra complication lets say. I mean, you have to i guess so. Throwing out the first pitch at an indians game wearing a bulletproof vest. In that picture, youre wearing a bulletproof vest . Yeah. Why were people trying to kill you . I mean, our administration when we took office, organized crime had had the folks in city hall and we you know, we took
office and basically you know, thats done. Why do you think people wanted to do the mayor in . Take out kucinich. You could not be bought . Theres nothing i want. But unfortunately there are a lot of people who are unscrupulous who can be bought. Its not how i grew up. I knew back in 1978 if the city went into default that my political career was pretty much going to go into the dumper. I had no idea id make a comeback. No guarantees there. And i couldnt you know, so what . I mean, i had to do what i thought was right in that moment. And, you know, it turned out kucinich was right, the move to save muny life saved the city millions. In 1998, the Cleveland City council honored him for having the courage and foresight to stand up to the banks and the
number of people who know that powerful interests tried to rub him out a couple of times, he has never talked about it on television before today. Wow. That was a great interview. Awesome. You know, you have seen him on the channel, seen him in politics for years, but a lot of people dont know his story. You know, he was the boy mayor of cleveland. He will be with us throughout the week here from cleveland. Thanks for sharing that with us, steve. You bet. Its the movie that Hillary Clinton does not want you to see. What if the goal of the Democratic Party is to steal the most valuable thing the world has ever produced . Pete hegseth just got a sneak peek and he is live in cleveland right here with us.

selling than moores. This starts with Dinesh Dsouza in jail. It all began when the Obama Administration tried to shut me up. What are folks going to see . Theyre going to see american politics traded away in a way they have never seen it before. The Democratic Party purports to be the party of equal rights and the little guy and the little man, and this movie blows it out of the water. The democrats support slavery. Theres a sordid strain of oppression, subjugation. Gangsterism from the beginning. The democrats went from slavery to enslavement. Corrupt big city bosses thats how you get corrupt unions. So Hillary Clinton is simply the par excellence, the latest manifestation of this sordid
tradition. Well go check it out. The film is about to play right now. [ indiscernible ]. I knew some of the history, but a lot of it i didnt know. It just breaks my heart that most of america hasnt seen this and doesnt know this. Do you feel like Hillary Clinton if you were a service member, do you feel like Hillary Clinton would have your back . I think the only type of back that Hillary Clinton would have for me in the military was if she was kicking us out the door into some country we probably have no business being in. You know, the whole American Dream thing, i think the democrats do the exact opposite. They dont promote the American Dream, they dont promote coming from nothing to something. For the young people, i would say that for one thing they need to wake up and they need to sue
their universities because their universities are engaging in malpractice. Only giving them one side of history. And for africanamericans, theyre deceived and i found my way out and they can find their way out. You know, that last point is really important. Because so many people, their kids get big enough, they send them to college. They figure theyll hear both sides of the dialogue. Invariably, they only hear one side. They get a whitewashed history of the republican and the Democratic Party. What this does is break down the real secret history of the Democratic Party and how it lead to the leader like barack obama and Hillary Clinton. Its fact based. They did some reenacting in it. Yeah. Dinesh dsouza plays himself in it. He did go to prison. A powerful movie. It debuts nationwide july 22nd. Anybody trying to shut down the movie . No. But he went to jail, he believed in part because of the previous
movie. So hes going to get a lot of criticism. But what he points to, theres not a single there in there you can disprove. The facts are the facts and he points to the racist history of the Democratic Party early on and how it flipped eventually and made it look like the republicans are racist and how Hillary Clinton has built a machine to benefit her and her husband. Clinton cash. Americans when they see this will have a different impression of Hillary Clinton. What movie are you seeing tonight . That one again. I think im watching the convention with you. That movie opens on friday. It does. And melania is speaking tonight. Indeed. It will be exciting. A lot of vets tonight, by the way. Lets hand it over to heather who has some headlines for us. Heather is over there. Hello, our friend. Hi, there, ainsley and good morning to you. The manhunt is intensifying this hour for the suspected killer and we are now learning that the daring dash out of the south florida courthouse we told you
about was in fact a well coordinated escape. The Police Arrested four accomplices accused of helping him flee. They signalled for the suspect to run away to a get away car. As he awaited a Death Penalty hearing. One accomplice admits to bringing the escapee a change of clothes so he could get out of the building undetected. The fbi needs your help to find a man accused of murdering his soldier wife. 5,000 is being offered for information leading them to jason earl armstrong. His wife Iris Armstrong was found stabbed and beaten to death in their home. Armstrong used his wifes debit card just shortly after her murder. We are told if you see him, do not approach him. He is considered to be armed and dangerous. And terrifying moments as a 7 eleven clerk wrestles a gun
from a robber. He yanked it way in a maryland Convenience Store and the suspect ran off, but then he was eventually arrested. No one was hurt. Those are your headlines. Steve, brian, ainsley, back over to you. All right, heather, thank you. Heres a quote, i hope baton rouge wont be the last. That is one of the Disgusting Things that have been posted online in reaction to the latest Police Ambush down in baton rouge. Unbelievable. Clayton morris is live here in cleveland. There he is. And our greenroom here in cleveland, red hot. You have Tucker Carlson. What is going on there . Kevin jackson and judge pirro are now an item. And we have somebody oh, there he is. David webb and anna kooiman. At bp, we empower anyone to stop a job if something doesnt seem right, so everyone comes home safely. Because safety is never being satisfied. And always working to be better. Fox news alert now as america mourns the senseless killings of three baton rouge officers, some are taking a disturbing message to social media. Fox and Friends Weekend cohost Clayton Morris joins with us the shocking things we are seeing on social media. Thats right. Its been driven by what unfolded in baton rouge. The speeches will unfold tonight, we will see a lot of talk about security and the concerns there. But on social media yesterday, this is some of the vile stuff. In fact we had to blur out part of the screen here because we cant show you the comments being tweeted yesterday. Take a look at this. Armed pigs meet political consequences in baton rouge. Black lives matter, pigs in a blanket, hash tag up on the screen. We had to blur out the rest of it. You can see the black lives matter emoji that twitter rolled out a few weeks ago. A lot of controversy because
they didnt roll one out for Blue Lives Matter or other moveme movements. Good cops need to start snitching on their racist coworkers today. Only you can stop this. Baton rouge black lives matter. Its interesting to see which tweets twitter decides to take down. So certain she looks like an officer. You would think they might take those two down we showed you. No sympathy whatsoever for these pigs, i hope baton rouge wont be the last. Calling for more senseless killings. What is the standard that twitter uses to say, yes, this one is in, this one is out . Very similar to what facebook does. If you report a problem, then twitter or facebook will look at these things and will make a judgment call. So really it comes down to human beings making a judgment call. Smiley faces, laughing so hard theyre crying. Right. Unbelievable. And we have some more too. Then of course the president president ial nominees jumping on
facebook and twitter last night to comment on this. And donald trump says, we grieve for the officers killed in baton rouge today. How many Law Enforcement people have to die because of a lack of leadership in our country . We demand law and order. Youll hear more of that this week. Law and order. Mike pence selected as the vp nominee. Our country needs leadership, our police need support. We can and must support this. Time to renew americas commitment to law and order to make all of our people safe once more. Then speaker ryan jumping in as well. Horrified by another senseless attack on Law Enforcement in baton rouge. We pray for the officers and their families. A lot of people because this is day one are going to start tweeting about the rnc convention. What is the official hash tag . So a couple of different ones. The one that is generating they all sort of bubbled to the top, whatever gets the most ground swell. Rnc 2016 is the one where most of the commentary is happening right now. Rnc 2016. What about the rnc in cle . Not getting as much traction. We see the different hash tags but even the protesters are using rnc and use real donald trump if you want to get your point across about the rnc. It is his show. Thats right. real Clayton Morris. I am real. There might be a real Clayton Morris floating around. Track him down. Thanks. Still ahead, we end the show with our political panel. Tucker carlson, judge Jeanine Pirro and separately theyre nothing. Clean food. Words panera lives by. No artificial flavors, preservatives, sweeteners. No colors from artificial sources. 100 of our food will be clean by years end. Thats food as it should be. Booking. Com offers free cancellations, so youre free to decide if the trip youre on. Hahahahahaha . Isnt really the trip you want to be on. Hahahaha. Hahaha. [mountain woman and key laughing together]
we have a big show coming up on americas news room. Tom cotton will be with us. Well talk to Mike Huckabee and Dennis Kucinich as well aboutit. Ill take a trip to the rock roll hall of fame. Check it out. Guess whos here today with me . Hmm. Bill hemmer finally found his way to cleveland, ohio. So were going to welcome him here. Back to you guys. All right, thank you very much, martha. We have a big crowd here center stage at the rnc. Tucker carlson, judge jeanine and kevin jackson. Topic one, start with what happened in baton rouge yesterday. For people looking in, kevin, theyre wondering what is happening . Well, we have been talking about this for a long time. From on high, barack obama has from the moment we started with the gates incident, people think
were so think it was so inknockous, the guy sees someone break into the house, it should have stopped there. Law and order doing its job, but instead it got blown out of proportion. We wonder how that one small incident lit the fuse to everything we have got going today. Judge, this has been simmering, but why is it exploding now . Well, you know, its as kevin said the seeds of this racial hatred began with president barack obama and the irony is that the American People elected him totally colorblind to the color of his skin and hoping that this country will come together. The truth is that the cop killing has become normalized in america. There is a narrative that started at the white house, and the president continues it to this day. He can soften his words but the truth is that when youre at the funeral of five white dallas cops killed because they are
white by a black man who said he killed them because theyre white cops and you talk about the centuries of hatred and not knowing the motive. He leaves that part out. Leaves that part out. I think well see more of this. And it is a sad commentary. Tucker, what do you want the president to come out and say . I want him to say whats obvious, this is an attack on civilization. We spent 225 years building this great place called america and were under attack from opponents abroad who seek to undo it and from opponents within. Like rome was sacked by the vandals. This is the story we have seen play out many times in history. This is an actual crisis. We can win, but we have to identify it clearly. One other quick point. Not only that the cops were who were killed were white cops. But were talking about jumping to conclusion when we talk about the black you know, when a cop kills a black person suddenly its racist immediately. So you have that scenario
happening as well. People in america are tired of this because at the end of the day and i heard geraldo talking about blacks are pulled over indiscriminately and disproportionately like this, its not that blacks are more criminals in nature. Its the situation that blacks are put in that are making people sure. You dont think theres a another other problem, even in youre pro Law Enforcement. You dont think theres a problem in society that needs to be addressed, judge . I really dont. When i hear Hillary Clinton say, you know, we need to listen to their cries, we need to put ourselves in the shoes of the africanamerican, put yourself in the shoes of the women burying their husband because they took a job where they risked their lives for all of us. Absolutely. Great point. There are seven kids in between the three individuals killed yesterday. Not to count dallas. Right. Tucker, this really is about the choice coming forward as well. It is. Because there arent any changes to speak of with this administration. Well, the president , the
attorney general, Hillary Clinton have come out explicitly on the side of black lives matter. Its bigger than just about our black motorists disproportionately being pulled over. Are you on the side of order and chaos, theyre not. Thats a big deal. Trump should say that. The sad part, people are afraid, cops are not afraid. Not a good place to be right now. Judge and tucker, thank you very much. All right, well take a quick timeout and return to cleveland in two minutes. And these are the lungs. boy sorry. dad dont worry about it. vo at our house, we need things that are built to last. Thats why we got a subaru. avo love. Its what makes a subaru, a subaru. Oh, hey, jamie, can you hang back a sec . You wanna tell me about the boy in this painting . I dunno. Maybe nobody understands him. Well, if he were here, id say that being different is what makes him special. Just like our discounts each one is unique, but together, they help save our customers a lot of money. Okay. Pop quiz, whos my favorite student . Gwen . Yeah its gwen. Yeah, gwens the best. I have to run to the radio. Kilmeade friends. George schwartz. Thats going to wrap it up today.
