Trade tensions with china, you expect the market to sell off. Thats not the case. Whats going on . As you say, lets crunch the numbers. We added 157,000 jobs in july. That missed expectations, by the way, by about 30,000. 33,000, to be exact. It does show the jobs were created last month despite all of the complaints among businesses about a shortage of skilled labor. The core trend per month is up 200,000. This is important. The upward revisions, both for june and may, may was up 24,000. June up 35,000. Very healthy. Meaning those two months were the strongest performing months for creating jobs in more than two years. Its interesting. If you look below the headline number, the job market, the labor market still strong. The question is where are the jobs being created . Lets have a look. Professional and business
Business news and analysis. Going to put more tariffs on us. Well probably have more on them and goes on and on. Does that catch up to the u. S. Economy by november . Certainly, trish, if we enter into a massive trade war that would be the case. I dont expect that to be the case. Were seeing some clear evidence that not being the most likely scenario. Specifically in mexico. A new president there. Theres good moves toward negotiation of nafta. I dont think well enter into a trade war. At the end of the day, trump will negotiate for freer and fairer trade. Thats the m. O. I think conventional wisdom does hold that if the economy, stupid, montra is the way toe go. But not in this case. We have predents showing that the incumbent president will lose seats in congress and the
house is at risk. Maybe if you use the fear factor and you say look, people, you know, all of this benefit that youve gotten with a better economy could go up in smoke if the house changes hands, maybe that will resonate. Im not sure. People get comfortable, kind of comfortable, katherine. Theyre like all right, things are okay. So unless theyre like emotionally excited about something or emotionally attached to an issue, its hard to get that base out to the polls in Something Like a midterm election. Yeah, theres two things that they need to do. One is absolutely look at point out the left moving very far to the left. We have gillibrand, warren, all of the 2020 contenders tripping over themselves to move to the left of the next person. Thats the one thing. The base and the American People
i dont think line up in terms of values on that side. The second thing is precisely pointing to the economy. I dont think its only the economy that will win it for the president , although unequivocally tax cuts have generated improved Consumer Spending and business investment, which is doing tremendously well, which those two things combine more job growth. So those two things are the things that the president needs to focus on. Seems like hes turning his attention to immigration, which won him the election. Thats an issue that resonates in a lot of places. Good to see you all. Thank you. Gop voters in tennessee taking billie to face off against karl dean in the race for governor. Lee defeating diane black despite an endorsement by Vice President pence. The president tweeting lee has his total and enthuseastic
endorsement. So larry, i ask that question to you. Are people like billie bill lee, not the status quo, are they more favored in that environment like our president was going into that election . Trish, heres the difference with the past. That is pre2016 when donald trump won not ever having served a day in Public Office or come through the other route in american history, which is the military. Which you like or dislike donald trump, he opened the door to candidacies beyond the traditional. House members running for the senate. Senators running for president. State legislators running for the house. Those are the traditional routes to victory to Public Office. Now people are willing to consider somebody else like mike
braun, bill lee. So its not so much what do you think . Career politicians are career politicians. Its nice to get new blood. Nice to get someone who has does somebody else in life and has experienced the real world in business. Is this what the voters i dont see anything wrong with it at all. In fact, for years weve said we have problems getting good people to run. Indeed, we have. A lot of these positions, particularly at the state legislative level, go unopposed, which is terrible for democracy. Its not good for the parties, not good for the system or the people. A lot of these Business Folks have money of their own. How much is that playing to it, larry . It helps, obviously. Obviously a big help if you can if your fund raiser is a
luncheon with your accountant. Theres something nice about that too, larry. I look at the political process and all the money involved and the lobbyists, et cetera. I hate the idea that someone in washington has to vote because theyre sort of on the hook to some big company or some promoter that they need for their campaign. This gets back to the whole Campaign Finance reform that we really desperately need because politicians are so reliant on money. Nice to see a candidate with his or her own. Yes, trush, i agree with you on that. If youre going to rely on that kind of selffinancing, it will limit the field. Its a nice alternative to having lobbyists from k street hand big checks to politicians. I love this. I only response to the people. I would never be responsive to x lobbyist or y lobbyist that just gave me 25,000 or 100,000. Yeah, right. Come on. Youre going to at least let them in the door. Thats the key. It gives you access even if it doesnt buy a vote on the house or senate. You have a disrupter in the oval office and now disrupters all over the country . I think well see more of this. We still have a lot of primaries to go. Well see more. Thanks, larry. Protesters trying to shut down ice. Now chaining themselves together. We have swat teams in denver forced to literally saw off shackles. Are these tactics working or backfire something former ice director tom holman on that next. By. Protesters clashing with Police Outside the entrance to the denver ice office. Eight arrests were made. This is the latest in a wave of protests all against the Law Enforcement agency. Its all coming after new yorks democratic candidate for Attorney General said this. Watch. As Attorney General, i will continue to speak out against ice. I will prosecute ice for their criminal acts. Criminal acts . Really . Criminal . Im not sure thomas homan would agree with that one. He joins us. Wow, shes calling you guys criminal. What do you make of those comments, sir . Shes irresponsible. Its a disgusting statement. Give me one case, one, just one, where an ice officer or agent violated the law. She wants to be the top cop. First thing she does is call out the Law Enforcement agency that congress enacted. She needs to educate does. Her senator, gillibrand, doesnt like ice either. Ice is enforcing the laws in the books. Theyre not making this up. If she doesnt like what they do, talk to congress. Is this what the president refers to as fake news as shes trying to say that ice officers are actually doing something illegal . I think that statement shes going further left than senator gillibrand and cuomo or casiocortez. Ice arrested or removed 5,000 criminal aliens off the Streets Of New York last year. She needs to be thanking ice. What happened to those people . They were arrested and removed . Yes. They went back to their home yes. All right. I would think the governor and the senator would send a thank you to ice rather than threatening us. What about the communities where the people dont get deported . Criminals on the streets. Were not including fact that theyre here illegally. Theyre here illegally and commit a crime and then you guys say, okay, you know, time for you to leave and you have many communities that will say no, no, no. Youre not allowed to do that. What position does that put you in as you try to do your job . First of all, its more dangerous for our officers. Rather than taking custody of a Public Safety threat, they got to go in the neighborhood and find them. Its more dangerous. Now theyre on their turf. They have access to who knows
what weapons. The thing that people dont want to talk about, were protecting the Immigrant Community. These why were Sanctuary City. Were going to find the person but hes probably going to be with other illegal aliens that probably werent on the radar and going to result in more arrests and people that dont have criminal convictions. So the Sanctuary City laws are doing exact opposite of what theyre claiming to do. The other thing to think about and i imagine you spent some time thinking about this very issue, many of the Immigrant Communities themselves, theyre in jeopardy of having crime because you have bad actors. One would hope that if you can get the bad guys out, maybe the people trying to earn legitimate livings and pay their taxes and take care of their kids have a safer existence. You hit the nail on the head. Thats another reason why
sanctuary cities are lying to the community. Like i said before, thats more illegals in the neighborhoods. Second of all, these criminals are getting released without being turned over to ice. Theyre going back to the communities in which they live. So its going to make Immigrant Communities a lot less safe. Ive asked every politician to ask this Immigrant Community. Would you rather have ice officers in the jail or in the community . What do you think . If they dont let us in the jail, theyre putting Immigrant Community at risk, my officers at risk and the country at risk and enticing more people to come in illegally to get to a Sanctuary City because they think theyre protected. Theyre not. Ice will do their job. Were not going to be bullied. You can protest as much as you want. Well continue to enforce the laws. We took an oath to do that. You ever experience anything like this before . You personally. I retired three weeks ago. Ive done it for 34 years. Ive never seen the intentional mismessaging this is a coordinated attempt by the far left to mismessage what isodose. This whole abolish ice started because families were separated on the border. Ice didnt do that. The Border Patrol did. But they blame ice. So its a mismessaging by the far left to try to tell the American People one thing that it just isnt factual. You look at Who Ice Arrested Last year in the entire year, 89 , nine out of ten aliens we arrested had a criminal history. We want to keep everybody safe. Yeah. Shoots holes in the story. Thanks, mr. Homan. Did the talks with north korea suffer a set back . Secretary pompeo says they have a ways to go with the nukes. Were on it for you. Stay here.

Trish secretary state pompeo says north korea is far from living up its agreement to give up nukes. Where is this heading . Rich edson has more. The Secretary Of State warns could be a long process to get to the point that north korea would surrender their nuclear program. The Secretary Of State acknowledged theres a ways to go to achieve the ultimate outcome of a nuclearfree north korea. This morning the u. S. Treasury Department Sanctioned a russian bank for working with north koreans. Theres also reports that russia is importing labor. To that, nikki haley said in a statement until we see the
final fully verified denuclearization of north korea, there can be no easing of sanctions. Talk is cheap. Russia cannot support sanctions with their words in the Security Council only to violate them with their actions. Also on the international front, the u. S. Is pressuring turkey to release andrew brunson. Hes an american pastor in turkey for the last two years. Mike pompeo mid with the Turkish Foreign minister about this. He says the clock has run out on the government to release the pastor. They said Brunson Needs to come home and all of The Americans being held by the turkish government. Theyve been holding these folks for a long tear. Theyre innocent people. The turkish government arrested brunson a couple months after a failed coup attempt in 2016. This week the Treasury Department detained two officials because they have been
detaining brunson for so long. Trish thanks. How do we get north korea to give up their nukes . We have general boykin here with me. He went over there a lot of pomp and circumstance that went into that President Trump and kim jongun meeting. Did it get us what we want . Well, the mistake the president made was coming out of there saying that north korea is no long area Nuclear Threat. That raised expectations beyond a reasonable level. I dont know what kim is doing right now, crying to increase inventory to have more to bargain with or have a residual capability to hide or the chinese are leaning on him. Secretary pompeo is trying to tell us, this is going to be a longterm process getting to where mr. Trump wants to be. What is that like for Secretary Pompeo, when the president makes statements like its no longer a Nuclear Threat and everybody is happy for a new hours and then the Reality Sinks in that its not simple. What kind of position does that put somebody like Secretary Pompeo in . First of all, Secretary Pompeo has done yeomans work on this. Trish he worked on it before he was secretary. Yes. He went there and brought back hostages. Hes done a wonderful job. Hes like everybody else. President trump is President Trump. Hes going to say things from time to time that youre going to have to go around and clean up. When he made that statement about no long area Nuclear Threat, that did put Secretary Pompeo in a difficult session. Lets face the facts. Theres no Nuclear Tests of warheads or missiles and we just got 53 bodies back. So kim is clearly interested in keeping this process going. Its frustrating for somebody like Secretary Pompeo that is carrying the load on in. Trish i think our president sees the glass as half full. Its a nice way to go. I appreciate the optimism. As you point out, there has been some successes along the way. Maybe not the ultimate success but all of this stuff comes in steps, doesnt it general . So you know, you make a little bit of head way here and a little head way there. Eventually hopefully youre on the right path to full denuclearization. Trish, where we were a year ago . What happened a year ago . We have to reflect on that. You were hearing about little rocketman. Yeah. And the left was saying mr. Trump is about to take us to a nuclear exchange. Were going to war. Millions of people will die. Today i dont think where anywhere near that kind of scenar scenario. Were on the road to some successes. We have to expect there will be setbacks and this is a setback right now and mr. Pompeo does as well and thats why he made the statement about this was inconsistent with the u. N. Resolutions. Theres a long ways to go, trish. Trish let me quickly ask you about china. China likes having north korea there. Being a little bit of a destabilizing influence there for us in that region. Is china in our way here on this one . Well, china is always a problem. Remember that north korea is a buffer between china and the west. They like that. Im not so sure that China Isnt Leaning On Kim because of the reaction to the socalled trade
war or the tariffs that our president has said hes going to place on chinese goods. I think theyre showing their muscle a little bit, too. So i think theyre part of the problem right now with what were seeing kim doing. You bring up an important point there with the tariffs and the other roles that they can play. Thanks, general. Good to be with you, trish. Thanks. Trish all right. More protests about gun violence flaring up in chicago. Some calling on rahm emanuel to step down. Its who they want to step in that might really surprise you. Can you guess . The answer after this. Capital one and hotels. Com are giving Venture Cardholders 10 miles on every dollar they spend at thousands of hotels. Brrrr i have the chills. Because of all those miles . And because ice. Is cold. Whats in your wallet . Theyre handing us more than mail theyre handing us their business and while we make more ecommerce deliveries to homes than anyone else in the country, we never forget. That your business is our business the United States postal service. Priority you
a scratch so small you coulda fixed it with a pen. Maybe you should take that pen and use it to sign up with a different insurance company. For drivers with Accident ForgivenessLiberty Mutual wont raise their rates because of their first accident. Liberty mutual insurance. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty trish in chicago, major streets shut down demanding the resignation of rahm emanuel over gun violence. One state ref says he will take all the help he can get, even from President Trump. We have to make sure that President Trump recognized that not everyone believes that chicago is a trumpfree zone. If hes serious about helping the people in chicago, especially on the west side, i accept his help. We cant turn any help away. Fox news contributor Gianno Caldwell is one of those asking the questions. We reached out to rahm emanuel for a statement and we have yet to hear back. Gianno, good to see you. Good seeing you, trish. Chicago has a real problem, a very big problem, a Violence Level that is unrivalled by anyone else in this country, anyway. Could the president be of help here on the federal government for that matter . Theres no question about it, trish. When we think about a study that yale did, for every 100,000 residents, theres 113 African Americans shot. Almost 3 Million People in the City Of Chicago. When we look at those levels, theres no question that major Rahm Emanuels inaction has led
to tragedy after tragedy, including my own family. So what i was planned to see from lesean ford who is a senior democrat in the legislature, a chairman of the committee, hes been around, wil liked and loved in his community and represents one of the hardest Hit Communities on the west side of chicago. When you say listen, im more than welcome more than hopeful we can get President Trump involved and love to get his help that speaks volumes. Democrats in chicago follow his lead. At this point, its tragedy after tragedy we continue to see and rahm emanuel has chosen to ignore the City Of Chicagos most vulnerable residents. Why do you think that is . Why is he not doing more to pro protect them . What is interesting, and i was talking to a lot of protesters there, some said he was prioritizing the illegal immigrant population over the
residents, the African American residents in the City Of Chicago. They believe that for him, its about being reelected after the mcdonald tape, when he withheld that. That turned a lot of people sour. This is a very unique opportunity for President Trump because rahm emanuel was considered when he left the white house pretty much the extension of president obama. We know that president obama failed the City Of Chicago. So wouldnt it be great to be able to have a president that will come in and do much more that what president obama did for the City Of Chicago . Wouldnt it be great to say, this is what i can do if you put your trust in me to help move along and provide resources and safety for the citizens of chicago. Wouldnt that be great for the president to say . Well, if he could do it. The city has to be willing to take the help. I dont think that major rahm emanuel will be enthusiastic about it. And thats fine. Trish and youre saying you dont care who does it. You just want results. Forget about politics. The reality is, you have to clean up chicago. People have to go outside, walk your kid to school and not be worried about the violence that is so extraordinary there. For that, it doesnt matter what party, what side youre on as long as you can ensure peoples safety and opportunity in chicago. And i 100 agree with you. At this time weve seen time and time again, leaders, whether democrats or African Americans, they refuse to work with the president on pretty much anything when theres literally lives at stake. Think about my brother and his situation with him being in a car last memorial day with two of his friends and the car being shot by two individuals 25 times. Thankfully he lived but his best friend died in his arm. When i think about that, this Isnt Just Politics for me. This isnt a Talking Point in chicago. Chicago is not a Talking Point. This is human life and this is a mission now. This is very personal. So when i find something that is a Senior Leader in Democratic Politics in chicago saying hey, mr. President , i want you to come into this community because my community is hurting and citizens across chicago, i want to make sure that everyone knows that theres a welcome mat for President Trump in the City Of Chicago to make some things happen. That is something that we should be talking about across our network. Trish just to reiterate, you grew up there, right . Yes. Born and raised. Trish born and raised. South side . Is that it . South side of chicago. Trish I Remember You telling me. So sorry for your brother and his friend. I hear you. No need for politics when youre talking about Something Like this. Gianno, thank you. Thank you. Trish more after this. Ws its so hard to believe but its all coming back me. Baby, baby, baby. All you can eat is back, baby. Applebees. Booking a flight doesnt have to be expensive.

Trish officials in virginia warning the days of heavy rain could cause a dam in lynchburg to collapse. Many residents have been evacuated because of this issue. How are things looking there right now . Doug mckelway is live with the latest. Looks like you have some rain there, sir. Yeah, it starts up again every five minutes or so. Doing this day after day after day, trish. Youre looking at the dam in question behind me. May not look like a dam to you. Thats because the road that im standing on runs overtop of the dam. If we zoom in, you can see the white truck. If you look overtop of the roof of the truck, you can see where the flooding waters scattered away a portion of the sidewalk and a portion of the dam itself underneath that. The rains came down with unusual intensity around 6 30 p. M. Four to six inches in an hour or two. By 9 30, the city considered a nonmandatory evacuation. 90 people took shelter in a local high school. Today engineers came to examine the bridge and the dam and heres what they found. The dam is stable at this point. With pendinger with coming in again this evening, were still concerned about its overall stability going into tonight and tomorrow morning. Were confident at this point the dam is stable and safe. The city of lynchburg has known for some time that this Ear Earthened dam is not up to standards. Basically any dams built before a certain date didnt have to comply with new dam
safety regulations. So it was known and has been known that the spillway was inadequate to pass the large volume of water. The Army Corps Of Engineers classified it as a high hazard dam in the 80s. People downstream were at risk if there was a failure. Since then, theres been more development, more storm water runoff. In the short term, the first thing was to do was excavate the spillway and then wait for the system plaguing the Atlantic States to move out so they can begin more permanent repairs. Back to you. Trish we hope everyone stays same. Thanks, doug. President trump taking on what he calls fake, disgusting news

Phone Ringing get details on this State Program Call or visit they can make anything bad, because they are the fake, fake disgusting news. Trish President Trump getting a lot of cheers for that line in pennsylvania. Taking on the media. Pointing to them in the back there. But how is this daily battle really going to play out . Lets get the take from our media watcher, howie kurtz. Howie, his base loves it when they go after the media. Is it destructive in your view . I think its distracting. I said many times, President Trump shouldnt be using that phrase, enemy of the American People, even though his daughter says she doesnt agree with that. Putting that aside, disgusting and fake, he has every right to hit back against the unfair coverage that surrounds him even when the news is good. For example, lately on the economy. But hes doing it so often now that he lets the press make that the story instead of the issues. You saw all of his Administration Personnel saying we need to take the russia threat seriously. Sarah huckabee sanderss press conference there. And they talked about the need for us to really secure the whole election process. Somehow that got lost because this happened. Were going to roll the tape. I want your reaction. I also think its ironic im trying to answer your question. I politely waited and i called on you. The media continues to ratchet up the verbal assault against the president and everyone in this administration. You did not say in the course of those remarks that you just made that the press is not the enemy of the people. Trish howie, that was clearly a frustrated jim acosta. Some have said hes grandstanding a little bit here. You think . Jim acosta always makes it about himself. Its a favorite phrase of her boss. She said, im the only Press Secretary to have secret service. Then he walks out. Trump is great for acosta. He gets the publicity. It was a very Important News conference just before that with
all of these tough officials talking about Fighting Russian Cyber Hacking now. Trish he cant win on that one either. We ran some clips showing how the Mainstream Media were all over him saying why is he doing this now . Thats the same group saying why arent they doing this now. So you see whats going on. Right. So if you dont do it, its like the administration is too passive. If you bring in the top officials running the department that can come back, oh, youre just trying to distract from the manafort trial or the mueller investigation. Its like the pundits have their goto plays on this. I believe president s should be
covered a gueggressively here. You can pick it a part if thats what you want. How about saying hey, he might deserve credit for the fact that the economy is cooking. Trish no, i think that if youre truthful with yourself and youre truthful with your viewer, you need to call the good and the bad. Theres certainly been plenty of good. But you never see that on, say, some of those other networks. Unless your Business Model is to play to a trump audience. And i fear thats the case. Trish then we get back to putin wants to divide us. You have the Mainstream Media doing his job. Interesting way to put it. Trish thanks, howie. Looking forward to seeing you this weekend on your show sunday. Tune in to howie and the media buzz.

Very exciting time, trish. Chicago based boeing as well as the elon musk spacex, theyre going to be building the rockets. Can the private sector do it better than government did it . Take a look at the astronauts. You said nine, two fourperson crews and a Boeing Employee who is a former Space Shuttle commander, will be launched from u. S. Soil for the First Time Since 2011, thats when the shuttle made its last flight. Theyre pretty excited about
the opportunity. When americans are working together, and respecting and cherishing our individual differences, when americans do the impossible. And i am so honored, to be a part of that, along with all of my colleagues here. Ill tell you, being able to launch to the International Space station from u. S. Soil, i cant imagine a better honor. Were ready. Now to have the opportunity to work with these Great Companies on something that is so important to our nation and to nasa, this is the stuff of dreams. You know, we always think when we think about the Space Program and the heros of it, the john glenns, neil armstrong, buzz aldrin, well now its a little bit more the ee lon misings, jeff bezos and richard bransons. Theyre driving this. And they can maybe do it more cheaply and efficiently than government. We used to spend 5 of the budget, the annual budget back in the 60s on the Space Program
