Declared that america was never great. I dont believe america has been great for all folks. I would have to agree with Governor Cuomo. Quote, america was never great. Thats the democrats new theme. It dont matter where we go we always find a way back home. Steve there is just two of us on the couch today live from new york city. Its been kind of a rainy night. Things are drying out here on new york city. Meanwhile 250 miles south of us is Ainsley Earhardt at the white house where it was raining overnight there, too. And its going to be a beautiful day. Ainsley makes me a little sad saw that shot from the two of you behind. Im used to being right in the middle of you two. I flew down here yesterday last night. We are interviewing the president after the show. Big news day yesterday. We have exclusive interview with him. We have a lot of questions to ask. If you at home want to send in your questions we would love that friends foxnews. Com. Brian also have people joining you out there, right, ainsley . A morning show that highlights the latest headlines in news, weather, sports and entertainment, and is known for the cohosts casual and spontaneous. With first degree murder. Brian this guy worked, the 24yearold worked for craig lang, a prominent republican who previously served as president of the iowa farm bureau. Buff he is illegal. Here illegal absolutely. I dont know anybody, ainsley, thats buying the fact that he blacked out in daylight while traveling, surveying and then getting out of his car to jog with, harass and ultimately kill her. There is no way thats going to fly. And im wondering how much they are going to look into his background to see what other cold cases might link to him. Ainsley yeah. Its heartbreaking on every level to imagine what she went through, how scared she must have been when is he running behind her, running beside her. And then the parents. Imagine what they are feeling not knowing where their daughter was for so long and to know that she
was probably just terrified beyond belief when she took her last breath. This could have been prevented. The system let the families down. We have heard from so many angel families in the past. And they say that their child would still be with them at the thanksgiving table, at the christmas dinner if the laws had not failed them. This is in the middle we have all been to iowa. We were there during the campaign. We were there during the Iowa State Fair. These are wonderful individuals, hometown, my kind of people because we all grew up in towns like this. Everyone knows everyone. They didnt expect this and have you this illegal immigrant thats working there and terrorizing this young girl and ultimately killing her. Steve absolutely. Ice did issue a detainer in this guys name to make sure that the sheriff would not release him. Obviously thats not going to be the case. Meanwhile, if you are watching the channel yesterday afternoon. Brian wow. Steve it was crazy. So much going on. Paul manafort guilty of 8
counts of bank fraud and tax fraud things having to do with his private business before he went to work for donald trump. Michael cohen pled guilty to eight criminal counts of Campaign Finance bank fraud and tax evasion. Here is the key. He told a federal judge that donald trump directed him to pay 130,000 to do so stormy damages and coordinated 150,000 payment to a former Playboy Model and cohen says he agented at the direction of the candidate to influence the election. Of course, at the time, the president denied any knowledge. Ainsley heres the thing, steve. Brian go ahead, ainsley. Ainsley in the past he paid off stormy damages without him knowing. Now he is saying he directed him. Is he telling the truth. We will ask the president that today. Wife did he change his story . This is a guy, keep in mind, pleading guilty to eight really bad crimes. Guilty of tax evasion and
bank fraud, illegal payments. Breaking Campaign Finance laws. So do you trust him . Brian credibility is going to be key. Rudy giuliani came out and said no allegation of wrongdoing against the president. The governments charges against cohen. Clear the prosecutor noted mr. Cohens actions reflect a pattern of eyes and dishonesty over a significant period of time. The question is Michael Cohen logically got that money, evidently by refinancing his house or getting some type of financing from his house. He evidently filled out the application using false information. Takes that money, which would be far exceeding any campaign correction levels. The question is when the money was ultimately paid back was it taken from Campaign Funds . I dont think there is any indication it was. And when its all said and done, where are we at right now . What else does Michael Cohen know that possibly Robert Mueller could benefit from . If you listen to lanny davis
who sounds more like a pundit than an attorney, a good friend of Hillary Clinton than someone looking out for Michael Cohen he is he pleading with mueller to ask my client to play a role. Steve the whole question whether these payments to women violated Campaign Finance law. That would be where any peril that the president would be. Jonathan turley was talking about if there was a crime have you got to define it very narrowly. The defense is, in fact, a difference of the crime. One thing i think to keep in mind here, is that this has always been a controversial area. They brought these charges against john edwards and it failed in court. Now, they did not have someone like cohen who is saying that i made these payments intentionally with the motivation of influencing the election at the behest of the candidate. This makes stronger case than edwards. Controversial as to the motivation. Is it really to influence
the election as cohen says or is it because is he a married man and he wanted to bury the scandal . Steve ainsley, the question of whether or not there was a violation of Campaign Finance law comes down, to according to the experts i was reading this morning, the prosecutors would have to show that mr. Cohen and mr. Trump knew they were breaking the law, which is a gray area and its hard to prove. Ainsley thats right. Thats exactly right. Democrats are scream impeachment, impeachment, impeachment. Thats what this elections will be about in the mid terms. The president said it doesnt involve me. I still feel very sad whats happened to these individuals. Had nothing to do with russia, thats a key too. He called the Russia Collusion case a witchhunt still. Brian two of his first reporters Duncan Hunter. Steve collins last week using insider trading. Two earliest supporters personal attorney and one of his Campaign Managers. You cannot blame the president for feeling under siege right now. Ainsley, thanks so much. We will check in with you in just a second. Ainsley sounds good. Steve all righty, too bad she is not there on a busy news day. Brian i know. Nothing going on. Steve jillian joins us with another fox news alert. Jillian final two fugitives wanted for Ambushing Two Undercover Detectives now behind bars.

You are talking about someone who participated in the final solution. Someone who was involved in the murder of men, women and children. Living in our community. Living in america. Breathing the air, enjoying this wonderful country while he deprived so many people of their life. Steve this is personal to you. Your mother was in auschwitz. My mother went to our ghits 1944 with her mother and other members of the family. My grand mother and other members of the family went straight to the gas chambers. Thats real to me. Your advice . Look, you things have become. Its almost like fellow democrats dont want the president to do well. They dont want him to do well because they are not going to do well in the elections. Its not about whats best for america. Its purely politics. In the case of palij, a nazi who walked the street of jackson height, queens, new york. Steve for decades. Its crazy 15 years ago a federal judge said get rid of this guy and is he living in our community enjoying. He was mocking us. He was laughing. He was interviewed in the New York Times where he said, you know, he sort of accepted the demonstrations and the rallies. My mother was outside of his home a cup perform years ago to pursue getting rid of a nazi. Steve its crazy that it took so long. Dov, thank you so much. Thank you for the opportunity.

The search fo Mollie Tibbets coming to tragic end. Illegal immigrant charged with first degree after he confessed to kidnapping and killing the 20yearold University Student when she was jogging on july 18th. Brian you cant jog in the daylight. If you are not outraged by this you are not paying attention. Here to explain is Fox News Contributor tomi lahren. Your thoughts . Well, i think what this shows once again is that when we talk about illegal immigration, when we talk talk about border enforcement issues, i think the American People are starting to see this isnt just an issue that impacts border states like mine, like arizona this is
something that impacts the entirety of the united states. If this can happen where it happened in the heart land of this country it, can happen anywhere. So i hope that All The Young girls that are watching this, all the Family Members of young girls, their daughters, their sisters, their wives that are watching this can see how real this is, because it could easily be your daughter tomorrow. So i hope this is a giant wakeup call. We have to do something to fix this Immigration Problem because illegal immigration kills americans. Enough is enough. Steve you know what, tomi, as Well Yesterday Ice filed a waiver with the sheriff just to make sure that he was not released. I mean, its the biggest story in the midwest that we have seen in a very long time regarding a young missing woman. But just the fact that ice has to issue that detainer saying hey, remember, if you release him we would like to go ahead and have him as well. That says something. Well, of course it does. I hope that all of the elected officials, all the liberals in particular who advocate for things like Sanctuary Cities who advocate for policies that
make it more difficult to enforce federal immigration law. I hope they understanding in some part they do have blood on their hands every time a legal citizen is killed by illegal immigrant. Every time our Law Enforcement officials are hampered the way they are in this country is an outrage. So sad we have to have a tragedy like this to remind us and bring this up in the conversation. Maybe its what we need to start taking these things seriously. Like i said, Mollie Tibbets and it could be your daughter, your sister, your friend tomorrow. Its an absolute outrage. Brian lets move on and talk about Melania Trump. You know, she came out and she is pushing for her program antibullying. She is going to be making her first overseas trip. That will be to africa. She went out and made her speech. That didnt stop anna navarro, a commentator from another channel from tweeting this out. On vacation and i swore i would stay off political twitter but girlfriends lack of selfawareness i guess thats referring to molly and any sense of shame
for her husbands use of presidency to bully others is hard to ignore. Only plausible explanation here is melania suffered Oxygen Deprivation of the brain. What do you think that tweet is unacceptable. Everything is unacceptable. Anna would be wise to take a look in the mirror. Everything she said about Melania Trump is what im thinking about her. Talk about selfawareness. How can somebody be so disgusting and vile who is advocating for antibullying. I have never seen a first lady be attacked like Melania Trump has for the good work and deeds she has done. Can you imagine we would sit here and attack Michelle Obama for something she was trying to do to better the country would be attacked up and down. People like anna navarro think its okay to do it. Quite frankly, i find that to be disgusting and furthermore, its an insult to really everybody that advocates for antibullying. Thats a human being, that believes we should have a platform thats positive in this country. Steve there is curious there is no outrage to speak of. Tomi, thank you very much for joining us on this very busy wednesday. Brian tomi lahren up at 3 28 in the morning for us and for you. Meanwhile, straight ahead. Paul manafort convicted by a jury. Words you didnt hear in either case. Collusion. Gregg jarrett is here to break down the legal impact for the president and i will hand back his tie.

steve ainsley what would you like to ask gregg about what happened. My number one question this morning is cohen changed his story. And jed he is saying that the president directed him to pay off these women. If that second story is true, then did the president do anything illegal . No. There is two reasons why this is not an Illegal Campaign contribution, I Dont Thinaslong as there is a y dual purpose. The president there would be commercial reasons for paying money in exchange for Nondisclosure Agreement. The fact he has done it in the past only supports that argument. Second of all, in order to criminalize an Illegal Campaign contribution, which is normally a civil penalty, you actually have to show the law is very special on this for that statute. You have to show willful and knowing violation of the campaign laws. Most people dont understand
campaign laws, including barack obama who received 2 million in Illegal Campaign contributions. He paid a fine for it. Brian about 300,000, i understand. Lanny davis, the attorney and advocate for Hillary Clinton but attorney for Michael Cohen says this if those payments were a crime for Michael Cohen, why wouldnt they be a crime for donald trump . Whats your answer to that. Alan j davis knows better than that because is he actually a very fine lawyer, although he is a Hillary Clinton ache light and has been for a long time. The fact that a prosecutor in new york says this was a crime and under pressure Michael Cohen agrees to that doesnt make it so. It hasnt been litigated. There was no trial, no judge, no jury, so, lanny davis statement is very misleading and deceptive. Steve i heard a commentator on Television Last night talk about how in this Plea AgreementMichael Cohen made with the court system that essentially donald trump who
was referred to as the unnamed candidate. Right. Steve was Unindicted Coconspirator. Ultimately, this could lead to him being indicted conspirator. Is that possible . Sure unindicted could become one later. Nixon would have been had he not been pardoned by gerald ford. That is also deceptive and misleading. And its blatantly unfair to somebody to be labeled Unindicted Coconspirator for the reasons i just explained that this really isnt a campaign violation, and it certainly is not criminal. So, for somebody to suggest that the president will now be an Unindicted Coconspirator is blatantly unfair. Ainsley what about the Mueller Investigation and the russian collusion. The president says this just proves there is no collusion. There is mueller going to be tempted because this has cost a lot of money. Would he be tempted, i would
hope not. Would he be tempted to try to find a crime and find a reason for impeachment just so he can walk away and say i got something, i did my job . Gregg gregg sure, there is always a propensity amongst Special Counsels or independent prosecutors who try to justify their existence. This case has always been an investigation in search of a crime, which is backwards under the law, under the federal regulations. This was an illegitimate appointment. You must first state a crime. Specifically, look at the Authorization Order from muellers appointment. There is no crime specified there. But, that has not stopped mueller from assembling a team of partisans to go after donald trump. Brian all right. Lets talk about Paul Manafort now. What an hour it was for the president. The Manafort Verdict comes in and Michael Cohen deal becomes exposed. Paul manafort found guilty of committing 8 crimes. Five counts of false income tax return filing. One of failing to report bank accounts. Two counts of bank fraud. Where does he go from here . He is looking at another trial in about two weeks. He is. Brian where does he go from here and some in the trump camp evidently worried looking at 80 years in prison, perhaps, will tart talking about things that donald trump doesnt want him talking about. Well, i dont think he has anything in incriminating to say about the president because manafort was so briefly involved in the campaign and Didnt Know Trump before then. He was hired on a recommendation. But what i worry about is what judge t. S. Ellis stated publicly in his courtroom. He was the judge presiding over this trial. He says you dont care About Manafort. You care about getting trump. And you will compose. What does that mean . It means prosecutors will write out a statement that may not be the truth and force a defendant to sign it. Steve gregg, before you go one of the things the jurors
said keep our names sealed because we dont want somebody knocking on our door why did you do that . I have seen that in a lot of different cases. This has become so politicized and peoples emotions are so inflamed. You dont want to do anything thats going to endanger the safety of these jurors who performed a great service, sacrificing their lives for two or three weeks. So, you got to make sure theyre safe. Dont disclose their names. Brian ainsley, do you want to say goodbye to gregg. Gregg, its great to see you. Thank you for saving brian yesterday. If you werent watching yesterday morning, brian spilled coffee down his tie and had this little long dribble. We talked about it in the commercial. We come on air and gregg, at the end of his interview yesterday calls brian out on it and it was so funny. And then he gave brian his tie. Brian thats the key. Thats the fox team attitude. Where is that tie . Brian undisclosed location. Steve jillian gave him a shout wipe. Brian it was a team effort. Truly a crisis. Ainsley we all have to take care of you, brian. Brian thanthank you, ainsley. Steve number one book in the world russia hoax. Brian the russia hoax. Go get it now. Thank you. Steve jillian joins us now and have you another amazing story.

Favorite stop for the president and critical one. Think about switching that senate seat to red where he has spent a lot of time, by the way, touting his economy and coal resurgence. Griff jenkins is live in washington with. So president s key points last night in a wild rally. Hey, griff. Hey, guys, good morning. West virginia is coal country it is trump country. He won it by 42 points. Thats why he is back there talking about immigration, trade, jobs, the economy and even the nfl and, of course, ending the war on coal. So when i came here originally, West Virginia, frankly, was down and out. It was not doing exactly well. One of the last. Do you know that a few months ago, it hit where West Virginia on a per capita basis is one of the most successful g. D. P. States in our union. He attributed it to coal being back. Came on the same day the president announced an
e. P. A. Rule rolling back restrictions on power plants across the country. Full Campaign Mode supporting democrats and republr joe manchin. I have patric Patrick Morrisy coming soon. Mr. President , the people of West VirginiaCant Stand Winning so much. Please, you are winning too much for West Virginia, please stop winning. And im going to say patrick, im sorry. And the president did not avoid the cloud of the news of the convictions against two former members of his inner circle addressing it both before and during the rally. It doesnt involve me but i still feel, you know, its a very sad thing that happened. This has nothing to do with russian collusion. Fake news and the russian witchhunt. We have a whole big combination. Where is the collusion . Guys, this is far from
the last rally. On a Conference Call at the white house yesterday, briefers told us the president s to be the most aggressive campaigner in president ial history.

Lets listen. Do you think america has ever been truly great . I dont believe america has been great for all folks ever, even today. I would have to agree with Governor Cuomo. Can you point to a time or do you think there was a time when america was great . I mean, not particularly. Steve campus reform. Org media director Cabot Phillips shot that video. He joins us right now with more. Its interesting. The governor has since walked those comments back and yet the people you talked to out in Washington Square park. Dont walk it back they agree with you. No one should be say would he go should mandate patriotism forcing people to be proud of the americans. As americans we should understand Historical Context our greatness we
have done more good for the world than any other place. It shouldnt be that shocking my generation viewed as high brow, intellectual to say that america is nothing to be proud of. A lot of this stem from peoples hatred of President Trump. They view assaying that they are proud of america as saying well, im proud of President Trump, im proud of Whats Going On right now there is a misconception in order to be patriotic, in order to support Whats Going On, you have to support every single thing your country is doing. That pressure is sad. Brian you went on to ask even more people some of those questions. Lets watch. Do you think that there is a time can you point to where america was great . I dont know. Honestly. Not great but like there was definitely some progress. And i think we are just going through regression now. It was never really great but we do do like great things sometimes. We fix a lot of problems, but its never been wholly great. I think another aspect of this one place this stems from is education. We have covered it at the Leadership Institute campus
for reform. American exceptionally is a foreign concept in our education system. People arent being taught. American exceptionalism, what were you taught in class about america all these people committed i guess when i was really Young America was great. When i got to college my professors told me. Steve talk about college. Life in great in college. You dont have to work in a factory with your nose to the grind stone. Not just historical can text. The current freedoms they have right now. Much of this stems as well you cannot ignore the role that president obama played in. This a last 8 years came of age america is not be proud of and should be apologetic. Brian every country think yous you are exceptional. One of the best things they can do is travel and get a perspective and come back and understand how great it is. Thats my hope. Amen.

Across the street from john richs place is kid rocks place going to open up on broadway. Amazing celebrities buying bars. This could be a trend. Steve meanwhile, today ainsley is live at our white house down in our nations capital. You know, ainsley, i know you are scheduled to interview the president a little later on this morning, but he has been known to actually see people on the north lawn and then walk out and talk to them. Brian maybe he will get it over with now. Ainsley wasnt that great . I know, i need to go ahead
and prepare myself just in case that happens, right . Steve, when did you that interview, you were standing right here and the president and brian and i were in the studio and we were watching him walk down with the press trying to ask questions he Wouldnt Answer came right up here and talked to you. It was a great day. You didnt even know. It was a surprise, right . Steve it was a surprise. We interviewed him for half an hour. Anyway, you will sit down with the president later on this morning in the meantime we are going to talk we have lots that you will be talking to him about. But right now we have got a fox news alert. Brian yeah. Lets begin. We got this horrible news yesterday. An Illegal Immigrants is now charged with murder of Mollie Tibbetts. That immigrant is pictured right there Christhian Rivera. He will face a judge at 1 00 local time today. Steve he led police to find her body in a cornfield not far from her hometown of brooklyn, iowa. Its a tragic ending to a story we have been following for nearly five weeks. Ainsley yeah. We want to know why. Why did he have to do this former homicide detective ted williams has been following mollies case from the very beginning and he joins us live in iowa where mollies body was found, ted . Hi, guys. This is a very tragic situation and a sad ending to a wonderful young womans life. The last words we have been told that mollie said was let me alone. Im gonna call the police. I can tell you that is not at thitypical of this neighborhood. This is the heart land of america where our neighbors know each other. Where they leave their doors open. During the course of our inquiry, we got a chance to talk to randy. Lets livabl listen to what shed to say about this town. Throughout the day i have kind of noticed its more of a gloomy feeling, even not knowing necessarily her
personally. Its upsetting because you are in such a small town in such a Small Community that you dont think Something Like that is going to happen. And you definitely feel a lot less safe than normal. Thats the key. Feeling less safe than normal. I can tell you grief has changed to rage out here. It is unbelievable to many of the people i have talked to out here that an Illegal Immigrants, a migrant worker, would take the life of one of their own. Migrant workers out here, guys, i have got to tell you, are trusted. And for the most part they are good people. But in this instance, this one man, Christhian Rivera, is is now charged with first degree murder. Steve ted, i have got a question for you. According to papers out there apparently this
illegal alien worked for air and b farms he was vetted through the governments Everify System. If he went through the Everify System and he is in the country illegally, how does that work . Well, you know, thats going to be a question that the Homeland Security is going to be having to having to answer today because clearlthrough the Everify System they should have picked um on this guy. Remember, what we have been told he was here 7 to 8 years illegally. You are right. They have to do some explaining later today. Ted williams live in guernsey, iowa. Ted, thank you very much. Brian as you know, ainsley, the president was speaking yesterday and immigration in this case came up. Right . Ainsley yeah. Brian, he was there this charleston, West Virginia yesterday and news broke that Mollie Tibbetts body was found yesterday right after our show. I was glued to the television all day long. I just have had a heart for this family as we all have and the dad was on our show. You know, its just the testimony let him down. And we all grew up in towns like this where everyone knows everyone. And, you know, this is corn country. We have been to the Iowa State Fair where you could vote for i remember during the election you could vote who you thought was going to win by dropping a colonel in the jar at the state fair to know that her body was found in a cornfield covered up with corn. It breaks my heart. I think what it would be like as a female running down the street and being terrorized by this man and not knowing whats going to happen and you cant run from him and get away. The system just let them down. The laws need to be changed. And the president was talking about that yesterday. Listen to this. With the illegal alien coming in very sadly from mexico and you saw what happened to that incredible,
beautiful young woman should have never happened. Illegally in our country we have had a huge impact but the laws are so bad. The Immigration Laws are such a disgrace we are getting them changed. We have to get more republicans. The democrats want to turn america into one big fat sanctuary city for criminal aliens. Honestly they are more protective of aliens, Criminal Alien Thable they are of the people. Brian if you cant jog in iowa in the daylight in the cornfields you really have to wonder about security. Its been brought up. Not a lot of Illegal Immigrants kill people . Why are any of them there . Its like a dwi not every accident involves alcohol but none of them should and thats what it is about. Steve Christhian Rivera will be in court later today in iowa. We will be watching for that
Paul Manafort the president s Campaign Manager found guilty of 8 counts of bank and tax fraud completely unrelated to the russia investigation. Meanwhile here in new york, Michael Cohen was found guilty guilty pleas for 8 criminal Counts Campaign finance violation bank fraud and tax evasion. The big thing, ainsley in watching the analysts, they are trying to figure out whether or not the president has any legal exposure here with regard to Campaign Violations in the payments to Stormy Daniels and that former Playboy Model. Yeah. You are exactly right. Because cohen changed his story. At first he said the president didnt know i was paying these women and then he changed his story and said he directed me to pay these women. Who is telling the truth . What is right . We have questions. Is that illegal . Gregg jarrett sat on the curvey couch with you guy as little while ago and he said no, its not illegal and explains why. Listen. Theres two reasons why this is not an Illegal Campaign contribution. As long as there is a secondary or dual purpose the law says its not a campaign expense. So, for the president , it would be personal and commercial reasons for paying money in exchange for a Nondisclosure Agreement and, second of all, in order to criminalize an Illegal Campaign contribution, you have to show willful and knowing violation of the campaign laws. Most people dont understand campaign laws. Brian thats true. We know how Michael Cohen got the money. He has claimed the president directed him to pay off these people, but the question is when the money was actually repaid to Michael Cohen, where did that money come from . You would think if it came from the trump camp, if it came from the company or trump camp in particular you
dont need to go into the Campaign Funds. It came out of his own pocket. Brian mark levin was with us. And he talked about what this plea bargain means and what it can mean for the Mueller Investigation. The general counsel for the clinton mob family lanny davis, he had his client employed to two counts of accurately that dont exist. It is a guilty plea. It is a plea bargain between a prosecutor and a criminal. That is not precedent. Just because a Prosecutor Says that somebody violated a campaign law doesnt make it so. He is not the judge. Hes not the jury. A candidate who spends his own money or even corporate money for an event that occurred not as a result of the campaign, it is not a campaign expenditure. Steve i have been reading this morning on the oped page gymnasium mark levin has laid out the law like that the real threat to the
president is political. If the democrats take the house in november they will define what high crimes and misdemeanors are the Cohen Manafort convictions raise the stakes for President Trump and his presidency but voters may want to see more than evidence about payments to a porn star to overturn the results of a president ial election. The Wall Street Journal writes. Brian obviously when an attorney has been around you and your family for over 10 years, you have no idea what this person is capable of doing and as we heard yesterday, there is a chance that cohen could be cooperating under a separate agreement that is under seal. So if Michael Cohen has already shown that he will tape you in a conversation without you knowing it, what is he capable of telling prosecutors to lessen his time in prison, ainsley . Final thought there before we toss over. Ainsley final thought the president said yesterday no Russia Collusion. Thats the headline he took away from this. The question now is mueller, a lot of republicans are
accusing mueller of building his team full of democrats, people that dont like this administration. Will they get him on Something Else . Would they get him on breaking Campaign Finance laws . Is that a crime . Is it illegal . We dont know. We will time will tell. If democrats do win in november, a lot can change for this administration. Brian they can trot Michael Cohen out for a public testimony to question him there, too. Steve thats right. If the democrats were to win, cohens charges would probably be the basis for some sort of impeachment action. All right. Ainsley, thank you very much. More from her live in the white house coming up. Brian all right. Meanwhile, straight ahead. President trump firing up his supporters in coal country, West Virginia. Obamas illegal anticoal destroying regulations. We are putting our great coal miners back to work. Brian our next guest was at the rally and he has a message for the president. Steve its National Tooth fairy day. How much are kids getting from one tooth these days . How much did you get . Place your bets. Brian do you still have that money . Thats what i want thats what i want thats, what i want thats what i want thats what i want
so you have, your headphones, chair, new laptop, 24 7 tech support. Yep, thanks guys. I think he might need some support. Yes. Start them off right, with the School Supplies they need at low prices all summer long. Like these for only 2 or less at office depot officemax. Like these for only 2 or less the toothpaste that helps prevent Bleeding Gums. If you spit blood when you brush or floss you may have gum problems and could be on the journey to much worse. Help stop the journey of gum disease. Try parodontax toothpaste. Every day we are keeping our promises. We are canceling obamas illegal anticoal destroying regulations. We are putting you are great coal miners back to work. [cheers and applause] brian and the West Virginia crowd record. President trump taking his message straight to the people at charleston last night touting his plan to roll back obama era regulations on coal. Next guest main figure in americas Coal Industry and praising the president s move and his speech and his rally. Senior Vice President of the West VirginiaCoal Association and was at the rally joins us now. Chris, what has the president done tangibly over the last two years to change the future of coal, especially in West Virginia . He has almost singlehandedly turned this if i have around. Darkest days within the Coal Industry during the president obamas 8 years and as a result. We just saw nothing but the,
you know, the type of consequences you find when you have a president youthizing every resource available to ratchets down and basically try to do away with the Coal Industry. You are saying eyes have reopened. People are off the shelf and back at work . You are saying you see these numbers . Why clearly have. Mining has risen 20 or. So maybe even a little higher. We are seeing minors go back to work that were previously furloughed a few new mines opening. We have some of the highest quality of coal in West Virginia that you will find anywhere in the world. Not only for Electricity Generation but also for steel manufacturing. Brian real worry for everybody is the environment. If you increase coal you are hurting the environment. The e. P. A. Did a study and they say under the Current Conditions that the president laid out there will be an additional 1400 premature deaths by 2030 if this continues. Do you want to take on that
study. We absolutely want to take that on. I think we have made tremendous gains. All the Technological Advancements you find around coal fired plants. We see a little bit of vapor and steam coming out of these plants. All airborne constituents have been eliminated. There has been tremendous progress made and thats something that the utilities and industry works on on a daily basis. There is going to be additional gains made Going Forward on a regular basis. We challenge that study. We think coal fired electricity today involves clean coal technologies. And, you know, what you find is basically every single airborne constituent has been eliminated. Brian chris, you know the president , even though you are not political. You are a business guy who wants to see coal thrive and this president seems to be doing that if the president has his druthers, he would have joe manchin replaced even though joe manchin is procoal. Do you think you need a political turnover on this
uptick . We endorsed the senator manchins opponent yesterday. You know, joe has done some good things for the Coal Industry but Patrick Morrisey has done tremendous things for coal. It goes above the individual. Transcends so far above the individual. This is about which party you embrace and which Party Supports your business and in this case the National Republican party, the local Republican Party has done Everything Imaginable to try to promote and foster greater Natural Resource development. Brian right. Whereas the opposite party, the National Democratic party headed up by Chuck Schumer and nancy pelosi have done every single thing possible to continue the dissemination of the come industry. Brian president of the West VirginiaCoal Association at the rally yesterday supporting the president. Chris, thanks. Thank you. Brian all right. 20 minutes now after the hour.

Back with quick headlines, republican congressman Duncan Hunter and his wife will be arraigned tomorrow on campaign corruption charges. The california congressman and wife margaret are accused of using 250,000 in Campaign Funds to pay for personal expenses and covering it up. They allegedly spent the money on vacations, School Tuition dental work and travel. He says the indictment is politically motivated. Two senators who just met with Brett Kavanaugh are telling two very different stories. Republican Susan Collins and democrat Chuck Schumer say
they both brought up abortion and roe v. Wade. He said that he agreed with what Justice Roberts said that it was settled law. He did not say that to me. Conservative justices have a habit of saying something is settled law during their confirmation and then overturning it. Jillian schumer has long spoken out against kavanaugh while collins is seen as a swing vote. Those are your headlines. Send it to you, steve. Steve thank you, jillian. Aaron hernandez killed himself in 2017 just days after being acquitted of two murder charges. The trial and final days of his life are detailed in a brand new book that came out yesterday called unnecessary roughness. Author and Defense Attorney who represented Aaron Hernandez jose baez joins us right now in new york. Jose, good morning to you. Good morning. Steve how did you become his lawyer. Aaron wrote me a letter
from prison asking if i would come see him and possibly take his case. Steve why . He wanted a new look and set of eyes. What happens with many athletes is they go with the first lawyer that their agent recommends and thats what happened in this case after being convicted he thought he would fight for himself and get his own lawyer. He was visiting in Prison Fighting for his life. You would make the argument that that conviction should be overturned . Yes. What a lot of people dont realize is the oden lloyd case was prosecuted under whats called the Joint Venture Theory which means the prosecutor has no idea who pulled the trigger and they had lots of evidence against him but didnt put the cases in context as well as i thought could have been and thats why i think that case was a winnable case. Steve sadly, five days after he killed himself, he was acquitted in that case why did he take his life . He had a severe case of cte, the Brain Disease from
repeated head blows by playing football. Its a direct link to suicide and, you know, after studying this case and looking at all the evidence, you really cant reach any other conclusion that cte was a major factor here you are critical of the nfl. Yes, i think the nfl has turned its back on its players. I think there is extreme detect between the nfl and its players look at Whats Going On with the kneeling issue and we have all of these issues their players are committing suicide. While i appreciate the president getting involved in the kneeling issue, this is a far more serious issue where players are having Walking Around with severe Brain Diseases and nothing is being done about it. And until this canister explodes, i dont think anybody is going to give it the attention it deserves. Steve before he died, he
actually talked to you about writing this book. He did. We thought it would be an important component because some stories have been told about Aaron Hernandez that simply arent true. And they have painted an image of him that is not accurate in any way, shape, or form. So what we decided to do and what we were discussing during the deliberations was telling who he is. He told me hey, write the good, the bad, and the ugly but make it the truth. Steve in your extensive conversations with him you never got the feeling that he was about to kill himself . Absolutely not. And i think thats where the Brain Disease really took over he wrote me a letter and i spoke with him hours before he passed he was happy he was his Normalself Joking around. And if you look at the Suicide Notes that i have included in the book. Steve he wrote one to you. Yes, he did. You could see the transformation right before your eyes in this book of how he is fine. And i even describe in the very first chapter that night of how of exactly what
happened and how the transformation occurred from being a normal person to the cte Brain Disease taking over and completely taking over and eventually taking his life. Steve you are blaming football . Well, i think football is definitely the cause of this. When you have your brain sitting inside a skull and continuously repeated it he was actually Walking Around with half a brain. Half of his good chunk of his brain was missing when they examined him during the autopsy. Steve thats what you are talking about with the title unnecessary roughness. Jose baez, it is a provocative look at The Life And Times of Aaron Hernandez. We thank you very much for joining us live. Thanks for having me, steve. Steve 7 30 in new york city. Michael cohen has pled guilty and Paul Manafort was convicted yesterday. The impact of both the cases on the president coming up next. Plus, democrat socialist alexandria ocasiocortez is not happy about this coffee shop closing. But, does she know they shut down because of policies she
supports . If you have moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis, Little Things can be a big deal. Thats why theres otezla. Otezla is not an injection or a cream. Its a pill that treats differently. For psoriasis, 75 clearer skin is achievable, with reduced redness, thickness, and scaliness of plaques. And for psoriatic arthritis, otezla is proven to reduce joint swelling, tenderness, and pain. And the otezla Prescribing Information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. Dont use if youre allergic to otezla. Otezla may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. Tell your doctor if these occur. Otezla is associated with an increased risk of depression. Tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts, or if these feelings develop. Some people taking otezla reported weight loss. Your doctor should monitor your weight
and may stop treatment. Other side effects include Upper Respiratory Tract Infection and headache. Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take and if youre pregnant or planning to be. Otezla. Show more of you. These are some of the things you are going to be talking to the president about just a couple ful hours from right now. Ainsley exactly right. Showdown between President Trump and his administration and what happened during the campaign and Russia Collusion and then the Mueller Investigation were going to be talking to him about that and About Manafort and what happened to Mollie Tibbetts an illegal immigrant is saying that he is guilty of killing her. We have a long list of questions. If you want to send in some questions, send them to friends foxnews. Com. We will be happy to ask him. Brian im amazed through this whole cycle since this president became president how many lawyers just want to get famous off cases and attacks on the president. After natavenatti want to hear t Stormy Daniels its all about him. He went out for lanny davis. Its all about him and the reputation of Hillary Clinton. Case in point. He was just on another network. Instead of talking about whats best for Michael Cohen he is talking about attacking donald trump and not accepting a pardon . Listen. He would not accept a pardon. He considers a pardon from somebody who has acted so corruptly as president to be something he would never accept right now Michael Cohen needs help from the American People to tell the truth. And we have set up a website Michael Cohen truth fund. Com to The Go Fund Me Site and this is about Michael Cohen telling the truth. Brian in other words, lanny davis is not getting paid so he set up a go fund me to get lanny davis paid for representing Michael Cohen to represent lanny davis views of the president of the united states. That is unacceptable. Keep in mind lanny davis also represents a guy who has pleaded guilty to 8 serious crimes. Guilty of tax evasion, bank fraud, illegal payments, breaking Campaign Finance laws. He faced up to 65 years behind bars. You might ask why the plea . Now he will likely get three to five. Steve it all comes down to this. People are saying the
president may face some sort of legal jeopardy or peril because Michael Cohen told the judge that donald trump directed him to pay Stormy Daniels and this other woman as well through the National Enquirer setup they had there. Big question is whether or not those payments are in violation of Campaign Finance laws. Alan dershowitz who knows more about the law than pert near anybody has this to say about that. Listen to, this ainsley violation of Election Laws are regarded as kin of jay walking in the realm of things about elections. Every candidate violates the Election Laws when they run for president. Usually they pay a fine, Something Like that happens. Here they are trying to elevate this into Impeachable Offense or a felony against the president. Tucker right. Look, they may name the president as Unindicted Coconspirator. This is the beginning of a story that will unravel over time. Its not nearly as deadly
lethal as some have portrayed it as being. Brian ainsley, think about this. Lanny davis has just said my client needs to pay me, doesnt have money, so lets set up a Go Fund Me Page. When my client gets a pardon, he will refuse it because he prefers jail. How stupid is that . Yeah, we will ask the president today if is he planning on throwing out a pardon to Michael Cohen who was once his friend. Yeah, thats ridiculous. I agree with you. Why wouldnt he protect his client. When we talk about Campaign Finance laws and if its illegal or not we were asking Gregg Jarrett that earlier as an attorney. He said it is not illegal. The reason is if there is a duel purpose it is not illegal if you pay someone to cover something up its not illegal, he said, because there is a dual purpose. You dont want your business or wife to find out. You might morally believe its wrong. I think most people would if that indeed did happen is it
illegal . It doesnt appear to be arrested cog to the experts. Steve regarding the question of pardons whether Michael Cohen would accept one via lanny davis thats a crazy thing that he would say pau Paul Manafort said yesterday Special Counsels first win in court. Found guilty of 8 counts of fraud and tax fraud. The president is thinking that poor guy got swept into this because he was my Campaign Manager. Ainsley right. Steve it looks like he did break the law years ago unrelated to the Russia Collusion thing that they have been trying to move, nonetheless, is he facing legal owe is facing a lot of time in jail simply because of the connection to donald trump. You are right. 15 counts, convicted on 8. Mistrial on 106 them. Asked for days to new trial and lawyers say they are extremely disappointed. Brian president was angry about the cohen news and then the Manafort Verdict. The quote was unhe was unhappy and exasperated according to one of his aides. Im sure you have a sense of that when you sit down with him in a few hours. Thanks, ainsley. Ainsley you are welcome. Jillian is here. She has not sat down she has been working on the news. Jillian thats right. You guys make me stand over here. Brian im sorry about that. Jillian get you caught up on the stories we are following. The nypd wants to pay you cold hard cash to take down bad guys a police Union Proposal would offer 500 to do so bystanders who Help Officers catch suspects that are trying to resist arrest. The proposal is ments to encourage people to help in dangerous situations instead of just recording those incidents on their phones. The fate of three confederate monuments now hang in the balance a North Carolina committee is considering moving them days after unc students toppled a statue known as silent sam. [cheers] oh my god oh my [bleep] god. [bleep] took it down. Jillian the states Historical Commission will vote today on whether to move the monuments, lee them alone or reinterpret them. The democratic governor roy cooper have suggested they be moved to a Civil War Battlefield to keep them safe. New darling as she has been called of the Democratic Party alexandria ocasiocortez has another bone to pick. This time with a coffee shop that closed because of policy she supports. She posted a picture of her outside the new york restaurant where she used to work lamenting the fact that it closed down. But it turns down the place says they went under because of the very wage hikes the democratic socialist is pushing for. All right. You can all relate. One of the best feelings after losing a tooth is knowing that the tooth fairy is on the way. Looks like there shun dreads, maybe thousands of names on this list. How many . Clear around the world and back in one night. Jillian so today is National Tooth fairy day and it turns out her rates have
gone up. According to delta dental, she leaves an average of 5. 72 when kids lose their first tooth. In 2017 the tooth fairy left nearly 300 million under pillows. My oh my the tooth fairy is rich. Steve so much money in the mattresses and pillows as well. Brian what a wand. Jillian thats what you get out of it. Steve i wouldnt say i was born a long time ago but i remember 50 cents john f. Kennedy coin under the pillow. Brian thats worth a lot of money. Steve these days for sure. Thank you very much, jillian. Meantime, janice, have you got a big storm, current Lay Category 5 hurricane is heading for hawaii. Janice not often you see a category 5 like this. To have it in the pacific we have only seen a cat 5 in history six times in this area of the pacific. This is the closest in proximity that we have seen to the Hawaiian Islands with the strength of a category 5
really ever in history. So this is a big deal, we are seeing on social media that people are taking preparations very seriously on the Island Of Oahu Cosco out of bottled water there are the tracks as we go through time. We think it will make a northwesterly tour. It is going to weaken. Will it make landfall . We are not sure just yet. We think honolulu perhaps. Coulkuai area. Possibly cat 1 or cat 2 friday or saturday. It doesnt matter about the category rainfall catastrophic some areas 2 feet of rain because of the mountainous terrain. Here are the Hurricane Advisories for the big island, watches on mi maui. We have only had three hurricanes hit hawaii in the past. This is a big deal we will continue to watch it. Steve it is indeed. Some people on vacation this week out there. Janice yep. Steve all right thank you, j. D. Brian senator Clair Mccaskill says she hasnt made up her mind after meeting with Brett Kavanaugh how she would vote. Our next guest josh hawley is running against her and calling her out for being undecided about kavanaugh. Steve plus, its time for some kids to head back to school. Dr. Nicole saphier just got back from an allamerican road trip. She dropped off her oldest son at college. She is here with a Health Check List for every parent coming up. For up to 12 hours with just one pill. Tylenol cant do that. Aleve. All day strong. All day long. Now introducing aleve back and muscle pain, for up to 12 hours of pain relief with just one pill. Democrats seeking reelection. She is one of just three to meet with Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Did she, indeed, have a choice . Even after her meeting yesterday, mccaskill says she is still undecided. But our next guest is calling her out saying its not a hard decision. Josh hawley is the Missouri Attorney general and the Republican Senate candidate opposite Clair Mccaskill in a real horse race now for that seat. Welcome, josh. Thanks for having me. Brian you dont think its a hard decision. You think Brett Kavanaugh should be a layup . Absolutely. This is a state missouri that voted for President Trump by 20 point. Conservative judges a big part of that we think whats on the line of the Supreme Court, brian, immigration, the second amendment, religious liberty. This is not a hard decision, Brett Kavanaugh iminequitily qualified. 300 opinions affirmed by the Supreme Court 11 times. Claire mccaskill ought to quit hiding come out now and say she is going to support him and stand up to her party and challenge him to support him also that would be leadership. Brian a lot of things happened with the last Supreme Court nominee gulch
where a lot of red state democrats volted he was going to get in anyway only needed a simple majority. Would you be on the lookout for that a symbolic support . I think here is what Claire Mccaskill tends to do whatever Chuck Schumer tends to do. Had to get permission to sit down with kavanaugh. A missouri senator should not be asking party bosses for permission to do anything let alone meet with a Supreme Court nominee. Brian Mollie Tibbetts in iowa illegal immigrant killed her blacked out on the actual incident. Im sure you are not buying that. No. Brian what is your thought the president is politicizing this effort because it backs up his effort on illegal immigration. We have got to secure the border. I dont know how can you look at this and not think that secure the border. Clair mccaskill my opponent would vote to secure the border. She is voting for open borders bill. Thats not what we need. We need to stop the lawlessness, stop the drugs
and gangs. Brian the president is talking about building all with a. Is he expecting 5 billion more declaration. It might get stopped in the senate. We have got to build the wall. The fact that Clair Mccaskill wont vote for funding for that wall. The fact that she wont support actually enforcing our laws at the border is another research she has to go. Brian President Trump support you. Absolutely. Brian Josh Hawley This is the toughest opponent Clair Mccaskill ever had. Its going to be doing fight to the end. Thanks for having me. Brian we reached out to Senator Mccaskill we did not hear back. We do have voice mail so we will check it again. Michael cohens attorney lanny davis says he will not take a pardon. Can you believe this . Now he has a Go Fund Me Page to help get the truth out. Its called he hasnt gotten paid yet. Alan dershowitz here to react next. Plus, dr. Nicole saphier just dropped her old irs son off at college. She is here with a Health Checklist as well as, i guess, a little bit of
sadness. Put a smile on, doctor, you are coming out to the studio. Dont be afraid to take The Road Less Traveled on oh, oh oh, oh take The Road Less Traveled on
off. We dropped all three of our kids off and its tough. Physically we drove just nick and myself two of us we went from new jersey down to mississippi with a packed car and so physically that was a little arduous. But, you know, the moment when i had to say goodbye to him got a little teary eyed. Steve a little . For me when i got home and he wasnt going to be in his room is when it really set in. Steve i dont have to pick up his laundry. The kid has been doing his laundry since he was 9 years old. God bless him. Steve there is the sendoff right there. Have you got some tips for families. First of all, you say focus on nutrition. Which i think is crazy because now that he is out of the house, is he going to eat anything he wants. You know what . I talked to him and his roommate brian and they are likeminded. They are great kids. They are are going to get along well together. We actually had the nutrition conversation because when you are going to school you are growing socially and academically but you need to be learning about nutrition and parents need to lead by example. Make sure you are introducing new foods to your kids from young kids to older kids. Dont reward children with food. And really just make sure they understand the importance of Good Nutrition and exercise. Steve he is going to come home and put buffalo sauce on everything. Thats what all my kids. He does do that. Steve meanwhile, know the risk your kids can face and there are a lot of them. Absolutely. There are things you dont necessarily think of. Of course, Everyone Needs to wash their hands.

An illegal immigrant is now charged with murder of Mollie Tibbetts. Should have never happened. Illegally in our country, the Immigration Laws are such a disgrace. Were getting them changed. Paul manafort found guilty of eight counts of bank and tax fraud. Meanwhile Michael Cohen pled guilty to 8 criminal counts of Campaign Finance, bank fraud and tax evasion. This case has always been an investigation in search of a crime, which is backwards under the law. New york democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo even declares that america was never great. Oh, i see. I dont believe america has been great for all folks. I would have to agree with
Governor Cuomo. Quote, america was never great. Thats the democrats new theme. Brian thats my second album. Then i bought their next album. Steve ainsley look at what you are missing. You are down at the white house and you are missing talking about the cars. I love you guys but when the president says he will sit down for an interview, you have to say yes to that. Im so fortunate to be here. Im glad were going to get to sit down and talk to him, after yesterday, big news day with manafort, cohen and Mollie Tibbetts. Brian we dont know where these cases are going and manaforts being tried for things prior to his relationship when these things come backtoback, then the president s got also one of
his first [inaudible] he did go to a rally, a typical donald trump rally in West Virginia. Ainsley you are right. Steve we start with a fox news alert. Illegal immigrant is charged with first degree murder of Mollie Tibbetts. That immigrant, 24 years old, cristhian rivera, he will face a judge first time today. Brian mollies body was found in a cornfield, not far from brooklyn, iowa. Tragic ending to a story we have been following for five weeks. Ainsley our next guest is joining us from iowa, where mollys body was found. Whats the latest this morning . The investigation is continuing. But ive got to tell you guys
what happened to Mollie Tibbetts is a parents worst nightmare. Can you envision raising your child for 20 years to be a good citizen, she goes out for a jog and she never comes home, for 34 days youre concerned about where she is, and then yesterday in a cornfield over my shoulder, mollie is found. Mollies friend and her Elementary School principal talked about mollie. Lets have a listen. Oh, no, not molly. Thats every parents nightmare and just so sad. I just its so wrong, you know. She had so much to give. Mollie was a sweet wonderful young girl. We loved her here. Shes part of our family. And she was very kind to everybody, so maybe the best
gift we can give is to be like mollie. A sweet young soul who is now gone, all as a result of an illegal immigrant, taking her to the area somewhere over my shoulder and leaving her like she was just a nobody, a very sad and tragic situation. Steve it is sad and tragic ted. I was reading the Des Moines Register this morning and it said what really cracked the case were Video Surveillance cameras in the farms around there, ted. It said they could see her running, out jogging, and then they saw his black chevy malibu. It was kind of circling around, kept going around. They tracked the car to him, and thats when he gave up the terrible news. Absolutely. He gave up the terrible news, and that terrible news was that he got out of that car. He started jogging alongside
mollie. Mollie said something about leave me alone. I will call the police. He panicked. He said he blackedout, and the next thing he knew there was blood in the car. Mollie is in the trunk of the car. He then takes mollie out to the area where i am over my shoulder, puts her out here, just like she was nothing and left her body. And the big question is, was she alive when she brought her out to this area . Thats going to be one of the questions that Law Enforcement is trying to answer. Ainsley it is so sad because we have been covering this case. When the news broke yesterday, we were all glued to our televisions and wanted to learn the latest and what really happened. Our hearts go out to her family. Many have said the system failed that family. We will hear from the president in a minute. He was in West Virginia talking. He said this could have been prevented. The guy who employed him on his farm said he actually tried to
vet him. He went to the Everify System and it didnt pop up that he was an illegal, that he was not a documented citizen. How did that happen . How did he slip through the cracks . Well, thats going to be a question that Homeland Security i believe is going to have to answer today because Homeland Security, when you have Migrant Workers coming into this country, they should be verified, and also someone else is going to have to answer because this has been an illegal immigrant in this country, and hes been here for at least eight years. How did that happen . Steve all right. Ted, thank you very much for the live report. Brian ted, thanks. Ainsley stays with us. Were talking about two court cases that came down almost in a surreal fashion as if you were watching a highlight film of legal obstacles for the president. First you have Paul Manafort after a few days we find out that eight counts were hung, but
ten counts actually came to a conclusion actually eight counts steve other way. Brian eight counts found guilty, ten counts they couldnt come to a conclusion. But Paul Manafort is looking at a lot of years in prison. Then on the other side, you have Michael Cohen seems to have cut a deal and admitted to paying off at least two people for his candidate, that candidate thought to be donald trump. Steve it all comes down to that payoff. Was that an Illegal Campaign violation . Thats what a lot of people are saying. And in fact, it was said this morning, the president not only directed a crime, meaning go ahead and pay Stormy Daniels and the Playboy Model, but he says the president is part of a coverup. Gregg jarrett says not so fast, what he may have done, not illegal. Theres two reasons why this is not an Illegal Campaign contribution. As long as theres a secondary
or dual purpose, the law says it is not a campaign expense. So for the president , there would be personal and commercial reasons for paying money in exchange for a Nondisclosure Agreement. Second of all, in order to criminalize an Illegal Campaign contribution, you have to show willful and knowing violation of the campaign laws. Most people dont understand campaign laws. Steve thats what it comes down to, ainsley. Ainsley whats interesting is cohen is guilty tax evasion, bank fraud, eight different crimes hes pled guilty to, all of a sudden he changes his story saying the president did know about this. Whats the truth . We need to see evidence if thats the case because it looks it appears that he is this is part of his plea because he wants to not spend he doesnt want to spend as much time in prison. Now hes looking at three to five years. Wheres the proof . If you have we heard those
videotapes of him talking with the president. The president saying check but the president says he didnt think that was for these women. He thought that was for Something Else. Were going to sit down with him today. We will get him to explain his side of the story. Brian how davis could represent a client and say i dont want my client to get a pardon is beyond comprehension. Mark levin who is an awesome lawyer also a fantastic host offered instant analysis on hannity last night. The general counsel for the clinton family, lanny davis, he had his client plead the two counts of criminality that dont exist. It is a guilty plea. It is a plea bargain between a prosecutor and a criminal. That is not precedent. Just because a Prosecutor Says that somebody violated a campaign law doesnt make it so. Hes not the judge. Hes not the jury. A candidate who spends his own money or even corporate money for an event that occurred not
as a result of the campaign, it is not a campaign expenditure. Steve also legal experts say that a Campaign Finance case against the president would be tough because they say prosecutors would have to show that mr. Cohen and mr. Trump knew they were breaking the law, which is a gray area, and that is hard to prove. Ainsley the president said yesterday it doesnt involve me. I still feel very sad. This just proves it has nothing to do with russia. You know, mueller was looking into Paul Manafort. Mueller was looking into Michael Cohen to see if there was any collusion. They didnt find collusion. Instead they found tax fraud and evasion. The president said no Russia Collusion and calls it a witch hunt. Brian what they are doing, rightly or wrongly, i know these men seemed to have done something wrong, im not a legal expert, but the people around the president are being taken out. Michael flynn, loyal subject, Steve Collins first lawmaker one
of the first to back him, Duncan Hunter, yesterday, one of the first in the congress, a veteran, he also has some Campaign Finance issues. And then you have Michael Cohen, his long time lawyer and then a guy that came out of from Eastern Europe to help him out with the election to replace corey lewandowski, they are in legal trouble. Im not saying they are not all legitimately under fire for a reason. Theres one thing they have in common, they were all around the president. He has to feel a degree like hes under siege. Steve but at the same time, it all started with russia, and they were looking for collusion, and so far none of the cases have been connected to that. Ainsley thats right. We will sit down with him today at 11 00. If you have any questions you want us to ask the president , send them over friends foxnews. Com. Steve if mueller is watching, can he email you and ask some questions that way . Ainsley we would like to have him on for an interview. That would be nice. Mr. Mueller, friends fox news. Com. Brian i could hear you saying this one comes from a viewer, Robert Mueller. [laughter] brian fantastic. Steve we have more news now. Final two fugitives wanted for ambushing undercover detectives are behind bars. More than 25 rounds were fired at detectives, but they both survived. In colorado a search for suspects is intensifying after a Police Officer is shot responding to a home invasion. The officer is expected to recover. Turning now to extreme weather, hawaii on high alert this morning as hurricane lane heads towards hawaii as a category 5 storm. The potentially historic hurricane could make landfall friday bringing rain, flooding and powerful winds. Take a look at this 3d map to shows nearly 6 inches of rain expected to fall every hour. Only two hurricanes have
directly hit the island in a century. This storm could be the third. Janice has been keeping a close eye on the storm. Today the first airman since the vietnam war will receive the medal of honor. President trump will posthumously award him at the white house. He was killed in afghanistan in 2002 on a mission to retrieve the body of a fallen navy seal. Chapman was dropped from a helicopter and immediately fired upon from all sides. Drone video shows how he kept on fighting for 70 minutes despite being shot nine times. Chapmans widow will accept the medal on his behalf. He left two daughters behind. Thats a look at your headlines. Back to you. Steve thats right. It will be presented this afternoon. I bet we will see it on fox. Thank you. Coming up, President Trump firing up his supporters in coal country and hammering democrats ahead of the midterms. We are live in washington next.

And you know, coal country is trump country, and manchin is a little bit of a moderate but he has a different candidate that he wants. First of all, President Trump won West Virginia about 42 points. The main theme he had besides immigration, trade, jobs and the economy, but also ending the war on coal we are putting our great coal miners back to work. We love clean beautiful West Virginia coal. We love it. Thats indestructible stuff. In times of war and times of conflict, you can blow up those windmills. They fall down real quick. No windmills in West Virginia. Now, this came on the same day the president announced a new epa rule rolling back stiff obama era regulations on coal
fire powered plants. He was in full Campaign Mode hammering democrats and throwing his support behind Attorney GeneralPatrick Morsey who is trailing democrat manchin. We must elect patrick morrissey. We need him. Get your friends, neighbors, coworkers, Family Members, get the people that love our country and get out to vote. We need his vote so badly. We need his energy. You are going to see, this guy has energy. And the president trained his sights on new yorks Governor Cuomo for his comments about american greatness. New yorks democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo even declared that america was never great. Oh, i see, okay. Tell that to our great soldiers at world war i, world war ii,
korean war. Now, steve, morrissey trails manchin by 7 points so we will see in this general election whether the trump bump holds firm. Steve .

Brian President Trumps former personal lawyer Michael Cohen pleading guilty to criminal charges of his own, cutting a deal facing jail time as part of a plea deal with the feds. Steve this morning ainsley is live from the white house. Shes going to ask the president about that. But first as you can see, far screen left, we have got harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz. Hes the author of the case
against impeaching trump. He joins us from marthas vineyard. Good morning to you. Good morning. Steve so professor, so much is being made this morning about the possibility that the Michael Cohen charges could come back to impact the president. How first of all, do you see that happening and is he in any legal peril . Well, the deathknell that they have been sounding on some of of the other cable televisions seem to be exaggerated. There are many steps that have to be taken before the president is in legal jeopardy. First of all, you have to show it is a crime. If mr. Trump the candidate contributed several hundred thousands dollars to his own campaign to pay hush money to women who were either truthfully or falsefully alleging against him, thats not a crime. A candidate can contribute as much he wants. If he directed someone to do it,
planning on paying it back, thats probably not a crime. You have to get over the legal barrier first. Then you have to get over the credibility barrier. The only evidence that the president did anything that might be unlawful even arguably [inaudible] comes from a lawyer client privilege, unless there are exceptions to it. There are a lot of barriers between what cohen said yesterday in court. Theres been no indictment, grand jury, only been a statement, by a man who has admitted to criminal conduct. We are far away from Impeachable Offense or criminal offense by the president. Ainsley i know you wrote the book case against impeaching trump. Will this election be about impeachment . Because mueller was going after him trying to find Russia Collusion. That hasnt happened so far. Are they going to try to use this against him and try to prove that it is illegal, maybe find some loophole saying it is illegal, maybe they disagree with you, is there room for
different opinions when it comes to reading that law, or is it just a hard fast rule that this is not illegal if he did end up knowingly direct cohen to pay these women . Well, i think if you read my book the case against impeaching trump, it makes a very persuasive argument that you cant impeach on the base of minor derelictions or even crimes. You need a high crime and misdemeanor. Every campaign has violated some technical election law. I think there are going to be some democrats, theres one in minnesota, there are a few others, who are going to run on give us the house and we will impeach the president. Theres what happened when president clinton was impeached, and of course it ended up being a disaster. It backfired on the republicans because the senate refused to remove him. So i think impeachment will be an issue, but i think the law on impeachment, at least according to my research, is fairly clear, and the president has not at least up to now committed any Impeachable Offenses. Brian michael avenatti, the antithesis of you, hes a fla flamethrower and came out essentially said because of this, he will have a chance to depose the president. Whats your reaction . It will never happen. Almost all of avenattis predictions have not come true. Hes also said that the president would resign. The case of Stormy Daniels is a nothing case. I dont even know why its still in court. The money was paid. The president has been willing to let her say what she wants to say. Shes free to say what she wants to say. I dont even understand why the case is in court. The case seems to be in court because avenatti wants it to be in court. I dont see how it benefits Stormy Daniels. Steve sensational headline. Yeah, but it is not a case thats going anywhere. And i think neither avenatti nor daniels will have any real impact on the outcome of this matter. It is a side show. It is a side show thats only there because the media is putting oil on the flames. Steve alan, yesterday the media were out in front of the alexandria federal courthouse. Paul manafort found guilty of eight counts of bank and tax fraud, related to his work as political consultant years before he was the Campaign Chairman for donald trump. Its interesting yesterday or rather earlier today, lanny davis said that he would not his client would not accept a pardon from the president of the united states. But given the president s comments regarding Paul Manafort, where, you know, he feels sorry about him, got all tangled up in this because he worked for the president , what do you think the odds are that donald trump might actually pardon one or two of these guys . Well, let me first correct my dear friend lanny who is a really an excellent lawyer, nobody has to accept a pardon. The Supreme Court in an opinion
said a pardon is a president ial act, and the person pardoned doesnt have to accept it or reject it. It is there. The pardon has the impact without regard to what the person who gets it wants. I think there is some possibility he may pardon manafort. The language he used yesterday, tragedy, manaforts a good person. He worked for other people, certainly leads to that possibility the way george h. W. Bush pardoned weinberger. I dont think there will be a pardon for cohen. I think cohen and trump team are in an antagonistic position and the trump teams approach will be try to discredit cohen. There will be two very different approaches to manafort and cohen. Ainsley im sure hes really upset with cohen. As you mentioned he said yesterday he was sad About Manafort. But wow, cohen really turned his back on him and is now saying he lied and then hired Hilary Clintons good friend. Brian he taped their conversation before he was president. Even if cohen wants to testify against trump, he cant
testify as to any conversations taped or not taped that are covered by the lawyer client privilege. What hes trying to do is claim that the direction by the president comes outside the privilege because it was illegal and part of the crime fraud exception. But if in fact the president directed him to do it and intended to pay it back, that may not be a crime. Theres a question about whether or not even that testimony is proper or lawfully admitted under the lawyer client privileges. These are complicated issues. They are far from knowing the answers. Brian alan you used to be retired. Now we have you working harder than ever. Thank you very much. Thank you. Steve 29 minutes before the top of the hour.

rivera who is in this country illegally has admitted to essentially murdering Mollie Tibbetts who we have been looking for since july 18th. Ainsley that news was so sad yesterday when it came down because we were talking to the dad and the dad seemed so optimistic and led us all to believe that maybe there was some reason he thought she was still alive and holed up with someone that might have been at some of her vigils, but unfortunately we found out yesterday they did find her body in a cornfield. Brian lets bring in tom homan, former acting director of i. C. E. I wish it was happier circumstances, we could talk about you joining the network, were thrilled, but we need your expertise here. How can a guy be working in the fields of iowa for four years under the wire and get away with this . First of all, my heart goes out to the family of this young lady. What a tragedy. And i went to bed last night. Im angry. My heart breaks, but because lets just be honest. Theres people up on the hill, theres certain politicians, like your politicians in new york, senator gillebrand, Governor Cuomo, and kamala harris, people who dont want to enforce immigration law. Secretary of nielsen, head of cis, to talk about the loopholes we need to fix. This is why we need a wall. This is why we need to fix the loopholes. Im sick and tired of talking about this issue and meeting yet another angel mom thats been created at the hands of an illegal alien. We need to stop politicizing this issue and fix it once and for all. After 34 years it is the same argument over and over again. Steve tom, one of the ways to fix it is the e verify system and according to the papers out in iowa, this particular fellow worked for a farm, worked there four years and according to his employer, they put his name through the e verify system and it did not come up that he was in the country illegally. So something didnt work. And, look, id have to i
think i need to be investigating, did they run it through e verify, we will see. I think hsi will investigate that. E verify has prevented a lot of illegal aliens from getting jobs, the best system out there. Theres constantly improvements made in the system. I will wait and see if it comes out in the investigation. Look, e verify can be beat in rare circumstances. Im not going to share with you how to beat it, because i dont want people to know how to beat it. Did they actually run this person e verify and what failed . I will wait for an investigation to end on that one. Ainsley are we seeing more illegal criminal aliens in places like this in the middle of the country where you just dont expect it, where everyone knows everyone . I mean, i understand it is all i think about Kate Steinles family, it was so tragic, it was awful but we know california is a sanctuary city so we know a lot of the criminal illegal aliens will go there, but we dont expect it here, not in the middle of the corn
country. There are a lot of illegal aliens employed in the farm industry. When i was acting i. C. E. Director, i directed that we increase by 400 . When i left, they were up 300 . Hopefully we will get to 400 by the end of this year. This person was in the country illegally. Didnt have any criminal history other than entering the country illegally that we knew of. This is another example why these folks who say just concentrate on the criminals and forget about everybody else. Heres somebody thats everybody else. That doesnt mean everybody else is free to stay. We need to enforce the laws in a meaningful way against all of them. We still need to prioritize. Just because you dont commit another crime in this country doesnt mean we should look the other way. Brian we found out about a murderer that was just taken out of the country, everyone was up in arms because his wife was pregnant at the time. It turns out hes a murderer, wanted in mexico. Lets talk about another situation that happened yesterday. We found out about the arrest of a former nazi living in queens for decades. Weve been trying to get him out. But i. C. E. Picked him up. Did you know about this case . Yeah, weve been trying to you know, when i came to i. C. E. Headquarters d. C. In 09, we were trying to remove this guy, but we had trouble getting the country to accept him. You know, ive got to give the president a lot of credit here. He talked about in this his campaign. He talked about once he got in office about this. There were 22 or 23 of them that werent accept their nationals back, even after being ordered removed by a federal judge here. Under President Trumps leadership and secretary nielsen, we took that number from 22 to 9, when i left the agency. And out of those 9 remaining countries, were asking for visa sanctions on six of them. So and the president took the bull by the horns in this issue. Ive got to give him a lot of credit. Hes held dhs on this. We were pushing hard. I was pushing hard. Im not there anymore. This president took this issue and he ran it. And look at the success weve had with it. Steve it was a priority. We had ambassador grinenll on the program yesterday. And he said look when i went to berlin the president said this is your number one priority. Do something about it. Here he did. Think about that. This guys been here for how many years . We have been trying to remove him for at least a dozen years. I have said a hundred times, this president cares. He knows this issue. Hes taken it personally. And hes pushing it. So thank god hes in a position hes in to try to make an effect on Border Security and Public Safety because hes making a difference. Brian took his citizenship away in 1995. Tom homan, thank you very much. Ainsley thank you, tom, welcome to the family. Thank you. Steve 18 minutes before the top of the hour. Extreme weather, hawaii is on high alert this morning as hurricane lane bears down. It is currently a category 5 hurricane. Brian 3d map you are looking at showing nearly 6 inches of rain and expected to strike per hour. Thats going to be a lot. Janice dean is tracking this. This is a big deal, category
5 hurricane. The closest a cat 5 has come to these islands in history, since recorded history, and weve only had three hurricanes actually make a landfall on hawaii, so theres not a lot of history here, and im concerned that people are complacent. We are going to see a weakening trend over the next 48 hours. Thats the good news. However, were still not quite sure of the trajectory and how strong it is going to be. Will it slow down . That will mean the, you know, the difference between 12 to 24 inches of rainfall. So thats going to be the legacy of this storm, we think. Tropical storm advisories, Tropical Storm models showing the northerly track, northwesterly, will it make landfall . Thats the question. But every island in its path is going to at the very least receive a lot of rainfall and perhaps Tropical Storm force winds. Theres the model. This is friday, 3 00 a. M. , coming very close to the big island. It will start to weaken, but
again, my concern here is going to be epic rainfall events, and this is potentially going to be catastrophic, and again, we dont have a lot of history to guide us here. So people need to be making their final preparations and listening to their local officials. Steve that one graphic you just had, currently it has wind gusts of 195 milesperhour. Unbelievable. Yes, sustained 160, 195 milesperhour gusts. Brian if its not the lava, now you have a hurricane to worry about. Thats the problem. They have been devastated by volcanoes and now we have perhaps a historic hurricane. Steve thanks for the heads up on that. New york Governor Cuomo says america was never that great.

Ainsley, lets set up this segment by reminding folks what the governor of the great state of new york said when he was talking a little bit about making America Great again, which is the slogan of the guy who lives in the house behind you. Ainsley remember when he said were not going to make America Great again. It was never that great. Brian hes probably politically not going to recover from that, but it prompted a q a theme to find out how america really felt, ainsley, about the country. Ainsley yes, we went out to one of the campuses in the country steve Washington Square park. Ainsley he goes out and asks millennials do you think the country is great . Watch this. Do you think america has ever been truly great . I dont believe america has been great for all folks ever. Even today. I would have to agree with Governor Cuomo. Do you think theres a time you could point to where america is great . I dont know honestly. Not great but there was definitely some progress. And i think were just going through regression now. It was never really great,
but we do like great things sometimes. Like we fix a lot of problems, but its never been wholly great. Whats interesting about this, we were talking to him, and he said he probably interviewed about 15 people. And only 1 out of the 15 said yeah, what are you talking about . America is great. Ainsley how can they say that . They are in new york city. It is so great. Its so great to be here in america. Its really you know, we can smile and we can shake our heads, but it really is serious. This is what millennials think about our country . You know, are we not doing a good job as parents to raise our kids to tell them what other countries are going through and how other countries suffer and our soldiers fight to keep America Great and to keep others in other countries from abuse . I mean, it baffles me that people live here and they dont think its great. Were at the white house. I mean, they are also probably in college. They havent, you know, gotten their first paycheck yet. And once they do, and they start paying taxes, i think they will change their minds. Steve we will see. Ainsley i hope so. Steve straight ahead, one of the most iconic sports cars in america.
