Transcripts For FOXNEWSW Happening Now 20170726

Leaders from both sides reacted. We watched a similar process seven years ago. They had a lot of differences and were going to sort this out and thoroughly open amendment process in a situation where 51 votes could change the bill. I would plead one last time with my friends on the other side of the aisle, and i know can hear the cry to modify and change things. Turn back, we can go through regular order, we want to work with you. We know that aca is not perfect, but we also know what you proposed is much worse. Melissa nine g. O. P. Senators came out against last nights first vote to repeal and replace obamacare defeating that bill by a vote of 5743. Peter doocy is live on capitol hill. What now . Melissa, the queen repeal amendment that leadership had to offer in order to get senator rand paul just to let them bring the bill to the senate floor is about to come up for a vote and if the full repeal amendment fails, senator ron johnson told me that he thinks it could be heading for a skinny repeal. My guess is we are going to have some kind of skinny down version. We are going to have to get this process moving, otherwise we are stuck with this mess of obamacare. Late last night, nine republicans join the democrats and voting down the senates first attempt at obamacare replacement. That measure included a senator cruz amendment to give Insurance Companies and customers flexibility to buy and sell nonobamacare compliant plans and a senator portman plan that would get people off medicaid and onto private coverage, but portman just told us in the hallway, he will not look for alternative replacement instead of just a straight repeal. We have to ensure that we put a replacement after, not just repeal because repeal alone, and my view and all the others im talking to is going to increase even more and cause more insurers to bailout. The plan last night didnt pass, but we have to keep working on it. The one constant today among moderates and conservatives in the senate is uncertainty, nobody knows whats going to be in the final bill and nobody knows if it pass. My senate bracket is worse than my march madness bracket, trying to retake the outcome. Its the only player. We expect to see dozens, if not close to 100 amendments to this senate bill by the end of this week, so that is why nobody knows whats going to be in the final version, nobody knows if theyll be able to support it yet. Melissa keeping it interesting, peter doocy, thank you. Jon there was high drama yesterday on the senate floor with protesters making their voices heard just before a critical vote to advance the Republicans Health care legislation. We will restore order in the chamber, please. [crowd chanting] jon the disruption from the gallery was followed by a powerful speech from senator john mccain, urging his colleagues to Work Across Party Lines on health care. It was a senator s first appearance on capitol hill since he was diagnosed with brain cancer. Lets trust each other. Lets return to regular order. Weve been spinning our wheels on too many important issues because we keep trying to find a way to win without getting help from across the aisle. Thats an approach thats been employed by both sides, mandating legislation from the top down without any support from the other side with all the parliamentary maneuvers that it requires. We are getting nothing done, my friends. Were getting nothing done. Jon daniel albert, and kimberly edward. Kimberly, when you listen to john mccains plea there, none of these proposals yesterday that came forward on the floor of the senate got any democratic votes. Is it possible that there will be something crafted this week that gets some democratic support . Its hard to imagine that, they may have republicans vote for their own amendments and obviously, they would support those. Theres very little that republicans and democrats agree on when it comes to what to do about obamacare and how to possibly fix it. Jon yeah, and when you look at it, daniel, the nine senators who voted against the latest iteration of the better care reconciliation act, the nine republicans, they are kind of all over the map politically. If Mitch Mcconnell wants to hand out carrots to try and get something voted into law, hes got a tough job. Peter doocy just explained it well, nobody really knows anything. Last week, everybody thought the bill is dead. Miraculously, here it is, they were able to somehow hobble together 51 votes to Debate Health care repeal and replacement. Now nobody knows how its going to end. Whats interesting will be todays vote on the full repeal, the rand paul amendment, how republicans they supported it in the past now than it actually could be signed into law, how they supported and vote . That something to look for. And how it develops. Does this skinny repeal become bulimic or anorexic or by the end of the week, is a just symbolism and not anything substantive . Jon people will be hearing a lot about this skinny repeal. What exactly is it . It would repeal parts of obamacare, some of the taxes and so forth, but essentially leave large parts of the law intact, correct . Thats right, it could allow them to announce some victory because i could go to congress. Theyre looking at the individual mandates, the parts of obamacare that are extremely unpopular where people have to pay a fine. Were lucky to see the medical device tax come up a lot of republicans agree should be repealed and the employer mandate as well. Jon if you dont require people to buy insurance, daniel, under obamacare, doesnt that mean millions of people are going to bail out of the program . Probably. It probably means youll have some people covered and it probably would mean democrats, premiums are going to rise because of fewer Healthy People will be around. Just getting the unpopular parts would be popular, but on the other hand, it wouldnt fundamentally fix the problem, which is that Health Care Costs out of control, theyre going nuts, and nobody has a good idea of how to rein them in, make it affordable, and cover a lot of people. I think thats where the debate is right now. Republicans have yet to put forth a solution to his problems. Jon there are three senators, republican senators, all of them female who have expressed their opposition to this skinny repeal idea, right . Speak out theyve expressed their opposition to the repeal and delay provision. Right now, we are still waiting to hear from a lot of senators in terms of what they feel about this skinny provision. It was really just something that we sorted to hear more about this week. At the beginning of this process, a lot of journalists joked that this is where we had eventually end up and it is possible that this is the kind of bell where the senate may end up agreeing on. Jon have you ask anyone in washington why it is that republicans have been promising to repeal obamacare for 3 election cycles now and now that its actually a possibility at hand, they cant all get on the same page about it, why is that . Its really hard to give entitlements come and give Cheaper Health Care or to give Subsidized Health care, to give entitlements like any sort of entitlement and then take it away. Politically, think back to Social Security reform for instance in what president bush tried. Ed failed because people dont like when you mess with their entitlements. This is one of the reasons against obamacare from the getgo. Once you put in an entitlement, its hard to take it away and i think thats what we are seeing here. I think people dont want to strip their constituents, but. Jon kimberly, is at the way you would see it . Certainly when it comes to medicaid and certainly for those who qualify for subsidies to qualify for their health insurance. Theyre getting a pretty good deal in terms of what their premiums are every month and hope they get to pay for outofpocket costs. For those who are on these plans who dont get subsidies, who is c externally high deductibles, they say they would like to see obamacare repealed. The question is, did they want to see it replace with that of a republicans are working on now . Jon the devil is in the details and there are a lot of doubles in this one. Emily, daniel, thank you both melissa President Trump forcing a shift in the Justice Department after railing against attorney general Jeff Sessions again this morning. White house medications director, Anthony Scaramucci addressed it earlier on fox friends, confirming that sessions will be tackling the problem of leaks headon. We have to crackdown on leaks in a number of different fronts. There seem to be some holdovers, political holdovers from the obama administration. Im certainly the full responsibility here. I do believe it will get corrected shortly. So yes, i do think the leaks are a problem, people are suggesting im going to try and get the leaks down to zero, that is absolutely impossible in washington, im running a little bit about this now. What i do want to have happen is the people who report to me, if there are senior people inside the administration and trying to get them to leak information on each other, we are getting that to stop right now because that is not serve the president. Melissa Kristin Fisher is live at the white house with more on this. Hey melissa, attorney general Jeff Sessions just what the white house after attending what we are told was a routine principals meeting. There were no plans to meet with President Trump that we know of, but at almost the exact same time that sessions was arriving here, President Trump was putting out this message for his attorney general on twitter, check it out. Why didnt ag sessions replace acting fbi director andrew mccabe, a comey friend who was in charge of clinton investigation, but got big dollars, 700,000, for his wifes political run from Hillary Clinton and her representatives. Drain the swamp. President trump has been very critical of his attorney general for not doing more about leaks. Now, u. S. Officials say sessions on the cusp of announcing several criminal leak investigations involving news reports that publicized sensitive intelligence materials. Those same Officials Say that this announcement has been in the works for some time, meaning that they may not be a direct result of the president s recent criticisms. When that announcement happens, and we are told he could happen sometime over the next week, it could certainly help his standings with the president who said yesterday that only time will tell what will happen. In the meantime, this morning, Anthony Scaramucci had this message for the beleaguered ag. Listen. The people that work for the president have to have a tough exoskeleton to be able to handle that. I would tell people to stay tough. The president likes tough people, he likes fighters. It appears at least for now, that is exactly what sessions is doing. A source familiar with this conversation told fox that sessions chief of staff told the white house chief of staff, Reince Priebus that at the moment, sessions has zero intentions of resigning. Melissa hang tough, keep fighting, thats the advice from muench. I like it. Thank you. Jon somebody leaked that information . I dont know. New court action in the murder of a new york city woman who was killed while jogging near her mothers home in massachusetts. 27yearold Vanessa Marcotte went for a run while visiting her mom last summer and never came back. How prosecutors are tying this suspect to her murder and whats happening today in court. The president , fresh off his Campaign Style rally in ohio where he blasted democrats after the g. O. P. Cleared one big hurdle on the health care front. What this means for the rest of his agenda, the ranking democrat on the Committee Weighs in next. The washington obstructionists, meaning democrats, made big promises for the American People and every single promise they made turned out to be alive. This is crabfest at red lobster. And right now, were serving up more delicious crab than ever. Classic favorites like crab lovers dream. And new dishes like southern king crab and dueling crab legs with delicious dungeness and sweet snow crab. Its all happening at crabfest. And crabfest is only happening at red lobster. Now this is seafood. Melissa right now, new information on some crime stories that we have been watching. A bizarre case in las vegas after a Bank Robbery Suspect took a teller hostage, then carjacked to other people, ordering them to drive him to harleydavidson to buy a motorcycle. He got out and let the hostages go. The Police Caught up with them a short time later and he now faces robbery, kidnapping, and larceny charges. Thats odd. A teenage father now behind bars in california after police say he dumped a 16dayold infant in a strip mall parking lot. The baby is now in critical condition. And court action today from a man accused of killing a new york city woman who was visiting her mother and massachusetts last summer. He is said to be arraigned on a murder charge. Vanessa marcotte went for a jog and never came back. Her body was found hours later. Prosecutors essay dna ties a suspect to her murder. Jon pareto information and the robert durst murder case. Prosecutors are hearing testimony who is charged with murdering his friend back in 2000. His trial is not expected to begin until next year, but certain witnesses are testifying now at a Pretrial Hearing in los angeles. Jonathan hunt joins us from outside the courthouse. One of Robert Dursts oldest friends, emily oldman has been on the top questioning for prosecutors, trying to prove just how close she was and is the 74yearold multimillionaire and accused murderer. On the witness stand, emily oldman has admitted that she told durst in jailhouse phone calls that she loved him. She admitted that durst once bought her an expensive car and she admitted that once he had confessed in court in 2003 dude dismembering the body of a neighbor in texas who had been killed in a fight with durst, she still made him godfather to her son. Mrs. Oldman telling the court, the bob durst that was named godfather to my son was a really good person. When he came to my son, you cant judge a whole person by one act. In that texas case, durst was found not guilty on the grounds of selfdefense, but here in this case, hes accused of murdering his friend, susan berman and 2000, because he felt she might be about to tell police what she knew about the still unsolved disappearance of dursts first wife, kathy in 1982 mama but given how much time has passed, the defense is wasting no time questioning the reliability of witness memories. Some of the stuff goes back 36 years, of course people have problems with memory. That will be a main part of the defense . Im not going to talk about that, but how do you remember something from 36 years ago . He may be feeling pretty good about the hearing, but durst is clearly very frail and his mind seems to wander sometimes. Yesterday when that same lawyer you saw there explained to mr. Durst in some detail, and i listen to this, that a witness needed a five minute break, mr. Mr. Durst seemed to nod to the lawyer that he understood. Then seconds later, he leaned into the exact same lawyer and said, what just happened . Its an open question as to how mr. Dursts health is and whether he might even make it to the full trial which isnt scheduled until sometime next year. Jon fascinating case. Jonathan hunt, thank you. Melissa a transit officer attacked and its all caught on camera, how police are trying to catch the suspect ahead. Its terrible. Who knew that phones would start doing everything .

Melissa right now, the hunt is on for a man who attacked a female transit officer in philadelphia. The attack was caught on a body camera worn by the officer. You can see him shove her to the ground with both hands and then run off. She initially approached was approaching him for trespassing. This is something that did not have to happen, it was something that was unprovoked. Its terrible when we are out here trying to protect the citizens. If anybody knows anything about this, step up. Reach out to the authorities. Melissa Authorities Say the officer suffered head, neck, and back injuries. Jon new information on the battle for Health Care Reform as President Trump weighs in on the vote that kicked off debate where democrats stuck together and tried to block it. The president now explains the path forward for the g. O. P. Its time for democrats to stop resisting a month thats their term, resist, resist. [boos] they have to do, finally, whats right for the American People, but probably will do it ourselves because today, we won 5150 and didnt get one vote. Jon joining us now, congressman John Yarmouth who is Ranking Member of the house budget committee, one of the committees and charge of health care, so as you watch republicans try to wrestle with some kind of revisions to the Affordable Care act, what would you tell them to do . I would tell them to go back to regular order, to send these bills back to committee and have an open committee process, as we did with the Affordable Care act in 2009 and 10 and consider the impact of legislation and possibly other ideas for making the Health Care System a lot better. Its pretty simple. Jon it doesnt seem to be working right now, Insurance Companies are pulling out of the Obamacare Exchanges. Is there an option, as the president has sometimes suggested, to just letting the Obamacare Exchange is collapse . Theyre not collapsing, as a matter of fact, theyll tell you that the markets are stabilizing over the last year and the prospect is actually pretty goo good. We do have some profits on the individual market which is about 5 of the population and we know how to fix it because they know how to sabotage it. Reduction payments will help lower income people pay their deductibles and copays. Thats actually in one of the senate bills, so they know the solution and we do too, and we would love to work with them to solve these problems. Jon so far, there were no democratic votes in the senate in favor of any of the legislation that was put forward yesterday, is some kind of deal between the republicans and democrats, is that what its going to take it, and your view, to get changes to the Affordable Care act passed . I think so, its pretty obvious that Mitch Mcconnell is having an awful hard time putting this together. They only got 43 votes last night for their comprehensive reform package, and it looks like theyre not going to get anywhere close to 50 votes for the repeal bill thats going on in just a few minutes. I think they know and we know that in order to move forward and to actually improve our Health Care System, its going to take a bipartisan effort. Five of us from the house side last thursday had a press conference, we talked about the solutions we had were solving these problems to make the markets look better and we had schumer on the other side with the same kind of input. We are ready. Again, the solutions are selfevident, republicans put some of them in the bills, but as long as they want to cut a trillion dollars out of medicaid and other changes to planned parenthood and others, they wont get much cooperation. Jon lets talk about the budget. The budget is getting ready to roll in the house and the senate, the house version proposes a bigger increase in military spending then even the white house wants, are you on board with that . No, not as much as they want to spend. In our democratic alternative, which we will offer, if, in fact, republicans bring their budget to the floor, we want an increase to about 603 billion, they go to 621 billion. They break the budget caps that are part of the budget control act from 2011, so there needs to be a change in that, but again, what we are concerned about is not so much the increases, but the dramatic cuts to the nondefense portion of the budget, which is where we make the incredibly important investments in our economy and american citizens so they have education and job training and infrastructure and things that will keep National Security going from an economic standpoint. Jon at a time when iran is threatening to put a satellite into space and north korea is threatening perhaps another nuclear test on top of its Ballistic Missile test that was recently successful, the world is a dangerous place. It certainly is. Again, we are supporting any reasonable defense spending, but there is a window to what we can do. The pentagon has never been audited and we dont know exactly what the Defense Department is spending their money on now, how effectively theyre spending it, and whether they need as much as they proposed in the house budget, so lets get the audit done before we go crazy and wasting our budget. Jon conquers men John Yarmouth, good to have you with us. Thank you. Melissa President Trump once again publicly criticizing his attorney general, but will the president fired Jeff Sessions . I am disappointed in the attorney general. He should not have recused himself, almost immediately after he took office and if he was going to recuse himself, he should have told me prior to taking the position. Managing blood sugar is a series of smart choices. And when you replace one meal. Or snack a day with glucerna. Made with carbsteady. To help minimize blood sugar spikes. You can really feel it.

This week, these composition books are just 25 cents each. Taking care of business jon breaking right now, north korea may be grading ready for another missile test launch as early as tomorrow. Officials say could be an intercontinental Ballistic Missile like the one the north launched on july 4th. Greg palkot is watching it from london. Thats right, a growing number of sources are saying that there could be more trouble soon from north korea. U. S. Officials telling fox news that recent movement at a launch site indicate that that launch could come tomorrow. North korea saying that tonight, eastern time, and yes, possibly an intercontinental Ballistic Missile. That launch would be marking the anniversary of the nuclear war armistice. It could be a reentry vehicle for a nuclear warhead, thats another step toward a very dangerous arsenal. All of this making pyongyang close to mastering a nuclear tip missile. A leading north korean expert, gordon chang, told us that could happen next year. The Washington Post quoting sources at the pentagon by saying basically the same thing. More sanctions have been threatened, but the trumpet administration is saying obviously, diplomatic time is running out. Back to you. Jon greg, thank you. Melissa President Trump openly criticizing his attorney general, Jeff Sessions again this morning on twitter. While lawmakers on both sides of the aisle come to the former alabama senator s defense i think i think he will be because there would be a firestorm of opposition to the president firing him or forcing them to resign. The only reason the president has said that he wants him to leave is because he recused himself. He cant fire bob mueller. If the president wants a political lackey or lapdog to fire bob mueller, that would be met with a very strong opposition from both sides of the aisle here on capitol hill. Melissa lets start with joe trippi, former Campaign Manager for howard dean and a fox news contributor, we also have brian maguire, chief of staff for senator Mitch Mcconnell. Thank you so much for joining me. Brian, let me start with you. Jeff sessions has never been so popular. He should write a book or run for something or start a go fund me account. Hes never had so many people clamoring to come to cameras and say what a great guy he is, what you make of it . Senator sessions was of the senate for 20 years. He enjoys broad respect from his colleagues on the republican side, certainly, and when these tweets went out yesterday, the reaction i saw from his Republican Former republican colleagues ranged from this would be unimaginable to this would be catastrophic. I think this is something that would quickly become a huge issue and a huge distraction for the president and it would risk alienating a lot of republican senators that we certainly need for things Like Health Care and tax reform in the future. Melissa joe, he even has democrats coming to his aid as you saw in that clip that we played coming in here, which is kind of amazing given that not everyone necessarily have the same things to say about him. When issues with russia came up, they were also quick to condemn him, so what do you make of the change of heart . I dont think theres been any change of heart. There are plenty of democrats who have been supported as attorney general. There is a difference of having an attorney general and having the president fire a guy so he could get to fire mueller. Once the constitution is the rule of law and the other is a political fight for civil rights and other things so people like me disagree with sessions, i think the president has the right to fire sessions, but i think it would be a catastrophe and a mistake. Ive said before on error, and ill say it again. If the president of the United States also Jeff Sessions under the bus, who wont he throw under the bus which gets him into trouble with his own republican senators . He needs to have votes on his agenda. I think this whole thing is a catastrophe. Melissa this is a message that he is probably trying to send, if you dont do what i want, ill turn on anybody. He didnt like what Jeff Sessions did and lets talk about the russia investigation a little bit. Jared kushner met privately with the house and Senate Intelligence committees this week, while a Senate Judiciary committee dropped its subpoena for former trunk campaign chairman, paul manafort, what you make of all of that . I think this investigation will go on, regardless of what happens with the attorney general and regardless of what the president says or does with respect to the attorney general, so i think its in the best interest of the president to simply let that investigation continue and to focus on the things that would be in this best interest to focus on like tax reform and health care. Melissa yeah, joe, it seems like when these investigations get started, they go and go, it doesnt matter which side is doing it, it reminds me of so many investigations that went on during the last administration where somebody says, we want people to come out so we can get answers, and when they provide the answers, then the other side says, that just brings more questions and it sort of never ends. This feels like another one of those. As the president has himself to blame for that. He thought that when he fired comey, it would end the investigation and somehow change the direction, thats wrong. He put gasoline on the fire. I think brian is right. If he somehow eliminates the sessions, its not going to put the fire out, its going to make it burn hotter, so again, its the same thing with his tweets. There have been a lot of times when this could have gone the other way, but then the president wakes up in the morning and tweets some controversy about russia or responds or again this morning, attacking sessions about mccabe and forgets what we are all talking about. Melissa we are talking about everybody defending Jeff Sessions and i wonder if there is some method in that madness and thats what were supposed to be doing, thats what he wanted everyone to do. Im just wondering. I want to ask about health care before we run out of time. Hang on. Some republicans are calling it skinny repeal, it would get rid of the penalties were people without insurance, it would eliminate taxes on medical devices, brian, do you think this has a prayer, and if not, what would make everyone come to the table . What could possibly get over the finish line . Thats what people are trying to figure out right now. Leadership did its work and getting the bill onto the floor, it was a Herculean Task and senator mcconnell, he did with the skeptics that he couldnt do, he got to the floor, so he did his job and now its up to the members to decide what they can come together on and support and get it over to the house to see if we can all agree on something, but keeping the game or keeping this process moving forward is a step in the right direction and its impossible to say right now where it ends. Melissa joe, what could get enough votes, if there was anything out there, with your political wisdom, not being left or right, what could garner enough votes that would fix the problems with health care . I dont think those votes exist. I think brian could be right about something skinny getting through as they could get into the house and have the conference, but i dont think the votes are there. Melissa theres nothing in the world, there is nothing that be put forward that democrats and republicans can come together on . Theyre happy with things broken the way they are . Everybody agrees and something needs to be fixed. Not in the process thats on the floor today, that process is not going to fix this. Thats what im saying. Yeah, after this blows up, whatever, there could be, but not in this process. Melissa s thats pessimistic view, that makes me very sad, but what can you do . You want people to come together and fix it, we have to go. Jon a fierce battle in alabama for the seat Jeff Sessions vacated from the top three competitors are fighting hard.

Melissa campaigning is underway in alabama for the redhot primary to fill the senate seat vacated by attorney general, Jeff Sessions. And the incumbent senator, Luther Strange is facing a tough fight against eight republican competitors with two candidates threatening him from the right in this deep red state. Jonathan serrie is live in atlanta right now with more. Break it down for us. Okay, ill try. Luther strange enjoys strong support, and he was appointed to fill Jeff Sessions Vacant Senate seat back in february. Listen to him. Im new to the ways of washington, but i share the frustration with a lot of our citizens that we are not getting the fundamental issues addressed. Senator strange faces a tough guy mary challenge from congressman mel brooks who is waging a populist pro trunk campaign. President trump said he went to washington, d. C. , to drain the swamp and this alabama race as fighting back and their candidate is lucas strange. Populism plays well with alabama voters, but so is religion and former alabama chief Justice Roy Moore became a household name in the last decade among religious conservatives for his refusal to remove a Ten Commandments monument from a states supreme court. We are deadlocked, we are stagnant, we are not getting things done that need to be done that are important to people. Although President Trump is popular among alabama voters, so as Jeff Sessions and these three republican candidates say that the attorney general will serve the president well by remaining in office. Melissa very interesting, well have to keep an eye on that one, thank you. Jon as a race to watch. Minneapolis officers opening up about that Deadly Police shooting there, what they say happened the night an australian woman was shot and killed by a Police Officer who is responding to her 911 call. Straight ahead. Plus, we are following a Catholic Church abuse scandal with the highest ranking vatican official ever charged in an australian courtroom. George, george, i plead with you, i want you to have a fair trial, but we want the truth. The whole truth, george an end nothing but the truth. Times up, insufficient prenatal care. And administrative paperwork. Your days of drowning people are numbered. Same goes for you, budget overruns. And rising costs, wipe that smile off your face. Were coming for you, too.

Jon fox news alert and some great news out of washington, the house web, Steve Scalise has now been released from medstar Washington Hospital and is gaining a period of intensive rehabilitation. He was the most previously wounded of those who were shot and then june 14th shooting at the Congressional Republican baseball practice. He was hospitalized, made Good Progress for a time, then just after the fourth of july, had to be readmitted to intensive care because of a severe infection that was setting in. He underwent more surgeries to deal with the infected tissue, but at this point, he appears to have made a strong recovery from that, he has been released from medstar Washington Hospital, his family is thinking americans for their prayers, well keep you updated on his progress. Melissa new information on a case that is rocking the vatican, a Senior Advisor to Pope Francis Cardinal George Powell is facing multiple charges of Sexual Assault. He appeared in a melbourne, australia, court for the first time today. Were joined now live from milan, italy. High there, this was a six minute hearing, nothing more with administrators, but still, it has generated an enormous amount of interest. The australian cardinal, George Powell is charged with multiple counts of sex abuse. He is a vatican treasure which is a key and prestigious post. He is also the highest ranking Catholic Church official to be caught up in a sex abuse scanda scandal. Shame on you the Catholic Church has to answer has to answer. Innocent until proven guilty. It is an accusation. This is nonsense. This is an uncomfortable situation for pope francis who elevated pell when he was already started to come under the spotlight. Francis has vowed to have a zero tolerance policy on clerical sex abuse. Hes known on the conservative side of the spectrum on social issues, but has been calling for Greater Transparency and vatican finances, and he has maintained his innocence throughout all of this and has previously said that he thinks that sexual abuse is abhorrent. Now his next Court Hearing will be october 6th. Melissa thanks for the report. Jon some new information now on what led to the deadly shooting by a minneapolis Police Officer that killed 40yearold Justine Damon end. Authorities say the loud sound that scared them might have been her slapping the card to get their attention. Noor and officer michael herr reddy were responding to a 911 call she made to report a possible Sexual Assault in the alley near her home. Outrage over the Fatal Shooting has led to the resignation of the citys police chief.
