Illegal act. We will explore legalities of that. On top of how things are bearing right now, Andrew Jackson of cot Lafayette Square across the street in the white house. Kevin corke with what he is seeing there right now. Just keeping my head on a swivel because you just never know when youre in a circumstance like this. As we take a look at these Law Enforcement officers out here in washington, d. C. , most of them are obviously masked up because that is a regulation, some folks are going without, some are going with but i wanted to show you the large number of Law Enforcement officers that are here blocking the socalled black lives matter plaza. I say socalled not to be disrespectful but rather to let you understand where you really are, we are about a block from Lafayette Square and as you see the Andrew Jackson statue is actually right directly in front of the white house. Too heavy to bring down yesterday but of course we have pictures we can show you, it was quite the scene as protesters attempted to do that to the statue, the base of it was defaced as we all know inside yesterday but again, too heavy to bring down. President trump talking about that and the fact that Law Enforcement helps to save the day. Last night we stopped an attack on a great monument, the monument of Andrew Jackson in Lafayette Park. And i just want to thank Law Enforcement, they did a great job, we are looking at longterm jail sentences by these vandals and these anarchists and agitators and call them whatever you want to. I wanted to show you whats happening down the street here, as you can see most of the area has been cordoned off, the idea to control the crowd, control the access to some sensitive areas including Lafayette Park which you can probably imagine is closed off to pedestrian traffic. At this hour all is calm, we will keep you posted but for now, back to you. Neil has indicated, right across the street from the white house. With us right now, the washington, d. C. , police chief, thank you for taking the time. I dont believe the president has signed the executive order but does he have the legal clout to arrest people who try to take down a statue . So you know, what we are dealing with here is weve got a small group of people who seem intent on destroying property here in our city, we have some pretty basic rules and the district of columbia with regards to demonstrations, we openly invite anybody in this country are in the world for that matter to come to washington, d. C. , and peacefully protest but if youre going to destroy property and hurt people, we are going to do everything we possibly can to hold you accountable. We have had mostly Peaceful Demonstrations in the city as you reported, we had an attempt last night, from some agitators trying to pull a statue down, we understand that people are passionate about what these statues might represent to them but regardless of how you feel about any statue or any piece of property in our city, there are ways to legally and peacefully address those issues and we cant tolerate people destroying property in washington, d. C. Neil you know, this has picked up not just in your city and in the district but across the country where people are targeting statues and some trying to have them legally removed, others in the case of the speaker of the house, former speakers tied to the confederacy removed but its a different matter when they try to force the issue, isnt it . I dont think anybody, any civilminded person likes to see the type of violence where somebodys going to actually pull down a piece of property anywhere in the United States so i think we have a responsibility to tell people that, if youre going to be involved in that behavior, we have no other choice. When i joined this profession over 30 years ago, i raised my right hand to god and said i would enforce the laws of the United States of the district of columbia and thats what the police are going to do, this is a Civil Society and that is not civil behavior, to tie ropes around any people piece of property and pull it down, if you want the property to be removed, do it in a legal and peaceful way, thats all we are asking, folks. Neil it occurs at a time when im sure youre very familiar with whats going on in seattle, what happened over the weekend and more violence this morning where they literally prevented the police from getting in to help folks, one who was shot and later died. Im just wondering, how you think this is all going, these are isolated cases, i grant you, but it does seem to be escalating in key city states, what you make of the wave of these, whether theyre calming down . The way i see it, the experience weve had in our cities with protesters, we have thousands of people that come here and want to peacefully protest and most of the protesters i come here, when they see the type of behavior trying to take over, somebody cursing out police officers, somebody trying to pull down a statue, the large majority of the people involved in the demonstrations have no tolerance for it and dont want to be involved in that. There is small group of people that are intent on destroying property to draw attention to themselves in whatever message we have and those of the people we are trying to get out of the equation. We certainly dont want them here in washington, d. C. Neil all right, cheap, thank you very much. Be safe, i know its a very demanding job, to put it mildly right now. Well follow up on that and whats going on in our Nations Capital and all these other statues that seem to be a target of protesters right now. In the meantime , your attention to the border of the president of the United States, 200 miles built under his stewardship there, this is coming into us from is it from san luis arizona right now, guys . Just came into us a little while ago, the latest on this progress, where things are going right now. This church here in phoenix can hold about 3,000 people, theyre going to use every available seat inside and zero social distancing really happening. Masks being warned, not too many people doing that, a few people here and there despite arizona being one of the new coronavirus hot spots. Recordbreaking numbers of covid19 infections and theres actually a maskmarryinwearing e in many cities including phoenix. It doesnt appear many people are following those instructio instructions. At the moment President Trump is on his way back from the u. S. Mexico border after making a stop in the border town, about 180 miles southwest of phoenix, he attended our Border Security roundtable, to complete the border wall expansion. Trump is also physically viewing the u. S. Mexico border, enforcing the measures taken as president. The reason its not mentioned, its not that we won the battle, its that its such a compelling thing to have done because you see the numbers and where that wall is going as youre saying, its like magic, you dont have to saves tremendous manpower and woman power, tremendous Human Resources and saves lives. You can really probably hear the crowd roaring as they wait for President Trump to arrive here at the church in phoenix. This is the third time President Trump will be visiting arizona over the past five months. The only difference this time as there is a major outbreak of the coronavirus the governor was pushed to cancel the event but he said the event is voluntary and people have the right to attend. Neil my friend jeff paul following all of that, phoenix, arizona, the president will be speaking at a fundraiser as well. Apparently we are all on the same page now with regard to a trade deal with china, you might recall, Martha Maccallum was talking to Peter Navarro, looks like the whole thing was falling apart and then he said, let me clarify my position. From the present of the United States, the trade deal is still on, still good. So for investors that was still bullish. After this. Given my unique lifestyle, thatd be perfect let me grab a pen and some paper. Know what . Im gonna switch now. Just need my desk. My chair. And my phone. Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. And still going for my best. Even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib. Not caused by a heart valve problem. So if theres a better treatment than warfarin, i want that too. Eliquis. Eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. Plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. Eliquis is fdaapproved and has both. Whats next . Reeling in a nice one. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Ask your doctor about eliquis. And if your ability to afford. Your medication has changed, we want to help. Five dollar five dollar footlong piled high with veggies theyre back. Any footlong is a 5 footlong when you buy two. For a limited time. Subway. Eat fresh. Neil all vague, it was like an abbott and costello whos on first, indicating an interview with Martha Maccallum that this whole trade deal with china, wouldnt bet the ranch on it. Then he clarified that, i would assume as it looks like futures markets, stock markets were tanking on those comments, saying no, thats not the case, the president s stamp of approval on that essentially tweeting out, all is good on the trade front. Need to make good on their commitment to buy a lot of goods from us, hundreds of millions od agriculturalrelated items. Joint is not from the white house, blake, that was like a roller coaster ride. And late into the evening last night as well, Peter Navarro now contends that his comments after he spoke as he spoke with martha last night were taken wildly out of context. But this is what initially caught the attention of investors, watch. The president obviously really wanted to hang onto this trade deal as much as possible and wanted them to make good on the promises because there has been progress made on that trade deal but given everything thats happened and all the things you just listed, is that over . Its overcoming yes. Its over, yes. That caught the attention of the president , tweeting the following the channel trade deal is fully intact. Hopefully they will continue to live up to the terms of the agreement. This morning on fox business, larry kudlow said that implementation of the phase one deal is moving in the right direction. Ive been in several meetings in the oval with bob and Steven Mnuchin and the president and others and thats been our view, they picked up their game, its not just commodity buying although that is picking up, too. Some of those structural issues. If you had any doubt whatsoever, larry kudlow also said this morning that the trade deal is happening, he said no question about it. So they are all on the same page. Neil . Neil youre too young but im thinking duck season, rapid season. Duck season, rabbit. All i know is i was working at like 10 00 last night. I was working last night trying to put all this together. Neil al all right, thank yo, my friend. Good job, as always. Senator rob portman joins us right now, of ohio. Senator, there was confusion on the trade and im wondering if the result now, seems like navarro is saying, everyone seems to think that the chinese are going to make good on their promises. Do you agree with that . By the way, weve seen the numbers. A few years ago, part of what we were looking for, market number one from ohio, also there beginning to implement some of the structural changes that larry kudlow talked about. Phase two is going to be the tough one because thats where you get into the subsidies and Stateowned Enterprises and other issues that have to be resolved for that to be a true level Playing Field and that will be harder for china to do but this phase one deal is in our interests, the president negotiated a good agreement, its also in chinas interest to implement this, they like our market. I think phase one is on track but boy, weve got a lot of other problems with china. Neil yeah. John bolton, i just finished his book. One of the things he raises is this idea that maybe the president wanted that deal more than the chinese. He characterizes it as all but begging for them to buy foreign products from us and that it would help in the 2020 Campaign Paid what he leaves out is that that was the goal all along, to get them to buy products so thats hardly a fox alert but the nature of that and that the chinese had his number, whatd you think of that . You know, im not a speed reader like you are, so i havent read the book. Ive got some pretty strong views about this, ive known john bolton a long time. I think hes a smart guy but if you disagree with your boss that much, if your boss commander in chief, you want to quit, you want to resign. Second, i worked in two at white houses, what happens in the oval office stays in the oval office, thats the way you can have candid communication with your top teams. So i dont know if its true or not, Bob Lighthizer testified before us last week at a hearing that what the book says with regard to the president s relationship with president xi and specifically in japan, that was not accurate so i dont know if its true or not but what i do know is that its tough negotiating with china, ive done it, the president negotiated in phase one, the tough one is going to be phase two and i think thats equally important. Neil you know, i dont want to belabor the point, you mentioned working in two different administrations. What amazes me with this administration, may be a sign of our divisive times, the tellall books that have come out, when the president is still in office. Usually there are some years that go by before you get that sort of stuff. Not all the time but man oh, man, its constant. Well, publishers are working overtime, the book selling and i think there is a lack of respect for the office when you go into the oval office and have a conversation and then report on it not just to the media but in this case to put it in a book and make some money. But look, i think we need to be sure that we have Going Forward to the kind of relationship with china where we can deal with some of these big problems we have. I spent a lot of time working on this ip theft issue and its real, they come over here and target promising reach researchers and resources and they do it in a systematic way and take that back to china. Much of this resource is paid for by us, the taxpayers. We have some big problems with china we need to resolve but we have to have a relationship with them in order to do that. Neil all right. By the way, you never did any tellall books on working with the president. It wouldve been so boring, you know . He was a good guy. Neil got it, got it. Let me ask you real quickly, youve been concerned, supported generous unemployment provisions to help people out but obviously theres a limit to that, federal benefits and i believe the end of next month, youre looking for some sort of an incentive that can get people off of them, whats the latest on that . The 600 a week additional federal benefit makes it so that 6070 of the people on Unemployment Insurance now are making more on ui then they made at their job. In fact, for the lower 20 of income earners its double on average what they could make out their job. Thats a disincentive to go back to work. I know a lot of people on ui, ive talked to them, they want to work eventually and theyre going to go back to work but this is a pretty good deal now to pass up so what we ought to do is provide a bonus to say, if you go back to work you can take some of that with you and a lot of people will go back to work, itll be great for Small Businesses and taxpayers both at the state and federal level because theyre getting state ui also. Our goal ought to be as her republicans and democrats alike is to get people back to work. And do so in a safe manner. Neil senator, im jumping on you brutally, i apologize. This break is coming. Im going to talk to your staff if they want to do a tellall book on you. Well see how that goes. In the meantime, we have a lot more today, all of these encouraging developments were enough to propel stock. They will, but with accident forgiveness allstate wont raise your rates just because of an accident, even if its your fault. Cut sonny. Was that good . Line the desert never lies. Isnt that what i said . No you were talking about allstate and insurance. I just. When i. Lets try again. Everybody back to one. Accident forgiveness from allstate. Click or call for a quote today. Accident forgiveness [shouting]tate. [clapping and shouting] [cymbals clanging] [knocking] room for seven. And much, much more. The firstever glb. Get 0 apr financing up to 36 months on most models, and 90day firstpayment deferral on any model. Its totally not the same without you. We miss your lets do this look, the sound of your laugh cry screams, and how you make every day here the best day ever. We cant wait to get you back so weve added temp checks, face coverings, social distancing and extra sanitizing to get the good times going again. Its time to roll out the red carpet and kick open the universal gates. Were finally back. And cant wait until you are too. I, as a member of the task force and my colleagues on the task force, i know for sure to my knowledge that none of us have ever been told to slow down on testing, that just as a fact. We will be doing more testing. Dr. Fauci trying to put all those rumors and comments and doubts at tow arrest that the testing goes on, what do you think of the testing phase weve been having and whether there could even be any truth to the possibility, the pressure was on the president to slow it down, i think hes making a kidding remark there but i dont know, what do you think . What ive seen from the president is that publicly he will ever now and then throw out a big idea to challenge deeply held assertions. Even among the reality of what we see is its been all systems go with testing but lets remember, that assumption that testing was a Silver Bullet does need to be challenged, the value is greatest at the early stages of a pandemic, once its out there you have to assume its everywhere. Its still important but its no longer the Silver Bullet that it can be an early containment. Neil when the president wasnt also talking about that, i couldve misread the tone, that every time you increase testing obviously are going to get more cases and that as president he worried, the last thing i need is reports of a lot more cases and leave it at that. Kayleigh mcenany was saying that it was i dont think in just about that the spirit of those remarks, the president later saying he doesnt joke about this kind of stuff. Bottom line is when you have more testing you do get more cases and we have seen more cases in this country, so leaving aside the intent of slow it down, speed it up, it does it alarm you, does it alarm you that uptick is going on and at least half a dozen of them, including texas and florida and arizona, its pretty worrisome. Well, neil, i think when we see something as concerning as a current rise in cases, we want to blame it on something, we want to suggest that maybe this is not a real threat. The reality is the expansion of Testing Capacity has been in both the north and southern parts of the country and we seen a massive decline of positivity rates in the north end a massive increase in the positivity rates in the sun belt, rates as high as 8 . So this is real, and forget it with a number of confirmed cases, look at the hospitalization rate. In texas, about a quarter of all hospitalizations are in people under age 30. So are seeing a real increase and the concern is that its not just institutional spread and nursing homes. This is actually from daily activity, that is our concern. We were hoping to be in a better spot right now in the summer, we will be going into the fall with a higher background level of cases before that players, so thats a concern. Neil the president , you believe he is serious about testing . I do and i think thats been the marching orders of all the people that work in the white house. I think its pretty clear and thats what theyve been doing. Did he say that . He might have but if they are working hard on testing and have from day one. Neil got it. Last question, you probably heard that the European Union as it slowly begins reopening is very leisurely about to leery about accepting americans as it opens up its borders because we are doing a lousy job of controlling the virus here. So we are lumped in with the likes of brazil and russia as folks not wanted. What did you make of that . Its a story thats not getting a lot of attention and the United States, other countries dont want americans traveling there and the reality is that weve had a staggered and delayed outbreak, weve seen the epidemic on a delayed time course so we are seeing increases that we were not expecting and its ubiquitous right now so we are seeing that but the reality is, not all of america is on the same page. To go to germany, go to parts of europe, everybodys wearing masks, everybody is concerned and serious about it. Were not seeing that here so the question is, are we going to start accepting some degree of shortterm economic pain to try to get ahead of this in the fall cycle . Neil real quickly, doctor, do you see a second wave coming . Or the aggregate we should be worried about . We are not seeing any cases among those already exposed in a way that is symptomatic but we started the current wave with a couple cases in january, we could have 200,000 cases seating us at the beginning of the next wave. Neil all right, doctor, thank you for taking the time, i always appreciated and i learned a lot from you. I do want to let you know whats going on in seattle right now. The strongest indications yet about the mayor and the governor are saying, those who have taken a six block control, cease and desist. They are not ceasing and they are not assisting. More shots fired. Before they worry about their insurance or credit card bills. Discover all the ways were helping members today. Or credit card bills. Did you know that febreze air effects uses 100 natural propellant . Cheaper aerosols use artificial propellants. Thats why febreze works differently. Plus, it eliminates odors with a waterbased formula and no dyes. For freshness youll enjoy. Neil that is its playing out on the diamond, maybe, after this. We believe individuals, organizations, and others can continue to gather in capitol hill peacefully. The continued disorder, the violence and impacts on residents and businesses are not just at odds with the message of justice and equity, they cannot continue to occur. We are working with communities to bring this to an end to it. Neil think so, the peace and goodwill from the original protesters that have taken over a six block radius in the city of seattle, obviously you know whats happened since, a lot of violence and death, at least two serious injuries and now the mayor, who was very accepting of the protesters controlling the stone, telling them the party is over, guys. But theyre not leaving. Dan springer with the latest. Hey, dan. After the mayors News Conference last night it does seem like the protest part of this occupation protest has lost some steam, we see far fewer black lives matter protesters inside, there is no speech is being given today, nobody manning the barricade. However there are still probably maybe 200 people, maybe more than that inside living in tents, living in cars around it and some of those people have said they will not leave until their demands are met, one of those demands being to defund the police but the mayor said this has got to end, she had good evidence last night that things really do change at night. For the first time yesterday and her News Conference, she acknowledged that things are not all rosy for the residence and Business People around here. They cumulative impacts of the gatherings and protest and the nighttime atmosphere and violence has led to increasingly difficult circumstances for our businesses and residents. So that was the mayor yesterday and there were four coshootings in the last four nights, the most recent one was 5 00 this morning, a 30yearold man was shot and he was taken to the hospital, a 19yearold was killed and we had some videotape that shows just how they were trying to get into the area over the weekend to get to the victims but were not able to do so, so the police chief address the situation and said it cannot continue, that the police have an area that they cant get into to help people. Here she is. I cannot stand by another second and watch another black man or anyone, really, dionysus treats well people aggressively thwart the efforts of police and other First Responders from rescuing them. So seattle is trying to negotiate their way back into having the police occupy that precinct, the precinct they left 15 days ago. We know some people have left voluntarily, that is the plan from the city perspective but if they cant get compliance they will have to take this over with some force in the coming days, the police chief doesnt want that to happen. She also doesnt want to have all the tools taken away from her like the flash bang grenades and pepper spray and tear gas but thats what happened by the city council so lets see if they do get back in there, if they can actually keep it without this being a flash point again. Neil . Neil all right, dan, thank you very much. In the middle of all that in seattle, youve probably heard play ball but what you didnt hear with baseball looking at a 60game season rather than a normal 152game season is they will try to play but it wont be the way youve probably envisioned a hand and in empty stadiums at that.

I was just going to say on slide 7, talking about bundling and saving. Umm. Jamie, youre cutting out. Sorry im late hey, whoevers doing that, can you go on mute . Oh, my bad i was just saying theres a typo on slide 7. Bundle home auto for big discosnouts. I think thats supposed to say discounts. You sure about that . Hey, can you guys see me . Neil all right, i know i mixing my metaphors but i think this is the last hail mary pass or baseball to get a season going, albeit an abbreviated one with about third as many games as it normally would look at. The Internet Radio host extraordinaire, good to see you, buddy. How is this looking right now . How real is it . First off, do you remember sports . Do you remember baseball . Its been about five years since we been able to have baseball. Im excited, im looking forward to it. Last night rob and fred mandated a 60game season about to be approved any minute now by the Major League Baseball players association, 60 games beginning july 24th. Theyre going to play those in 65 days. So every game is going to matter, pretty much no breaks, no days off, 60 games in 65 days. The fans are excited about it is going to be different when you compare baseball to the nba or nhl and what they might be doing for their seasons. Neil its not going to be exciting, the most awkward thing ever. I feel that way it when i cant get the fact is, this is looks like a very clumsy attempt at trying to rescue a season here. Listen, the way they fought this out in the public, both the owners and players should be a ashamed of themselves. It all came down to money, meanwhile millions of americans dont have jobs right now. Its very frustrating how it happened but the bottom line is it is a sport and personally myself, my friends, weve been watching old baseball games, rewatching them as if they were alive again. The gambling aspect of it, thats already, those stock prices are going up for because of fans wanting to gamble on these baseball games but for the actual games themselves theres going to be a lot of differences. A lot of teams are going to have extended rosters because in order for baseball to come back or any sport, they have to realize that people are going to get sick, they just have to hope its not a whole entire team or 20 players so theres going to be extended rosters because they realize it is a virus and people are going to get sick. As far as the additional players, those are going to be in the stands so theres going to be no fans there but youre going to have the backup first baseman over there and the backup picture so anything to try to get that happening. Come on, we have something to watch youre watching classic sports. Now we know you are aligned. This is why im single, i watch old baseball games thats why im single neil there are lots of reasons for that. Good to have you, my friend. You are the best. Great sense of humor, too. We have a lot more coming up. A lot of people were making fun of sleepy joe but when it comes to raising money, hes raising a lot more than the present of the United States, how is that happening . Liberty mutual. They get that no two people are alike and customize your Car Insurance so you only pay for what you need. Almost done. What do you think . I dont see it. Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. So when it comes to screening for colon cancer, dont wait. Because when caught early, its more treatable. Im cologuard. Im noninvasive and detect altered dna in your stool to find 92 of colon cancers even in early stages. Tell me more. Its for people 45 plus at average risk for colon cancer, not high risk. False positive and negative results may occur. Ask your prescriber if cologuard is right for you. Im on it. Thats a step in the right direction. Neil all right, the president to day going to the border wall, lets take a look at how much of it has been constructed, 200 miles there, a speech in phoenix as his opponent in the president ial contest took it up with his former boss, joe biden and barack obama to the big fundraising Virtual Event at that, lets get the latest out of on all of this and the implications. You know, biden has been on not only a polling wave here, that could change but whatevers going on has helped his fundraising efforts, raking the lutein right now, whats going on . I think theres a few things right now, when you look at joe biden, up until now hes actually underperformed in generic falls, and he democrat versus donald trump. More people are enthusiastic about any democrat than they have been about joe biden. Whats happened in the last couple weeks . A lot of issues have activated a lot of traditionally liberal voters who are going to be more likely to come out and support joe biden no matter what he do does. He has doubled in the last few weeks, hes now had 12 points, whereas just a month ago he was only had six points. In the last month hes increased about four points. We are seeing some big moves in the polls, but its not really because of anything biden himself has done, hes been largely quiet and we havent heard from them. I think we had to take this all in context and look at whats happening in the world and say, this is looking good but were really going to have to see whats going to happen when biden and trump are on the debate stage, where hes out there giving speeches and we are really hearing from him because right now, the political moves happening in the country and i think there is a big undercurrent right now that is favoring biden but its not because of anything hes done. Neil you know, you always remind me, im glad you do, you look at the trend where a single poll might not jibe with another poll. But when i talk to other folks, republicans, they would say this law and order thing, that will register it as a lot of people have gotten extremely uncomfortable with not only whats been going on in seattle, all the statues being torn down, the overplay, the overkill of that has given pause, where is the order in our society . A peaceful reflection but this is jumping the line that may be the president is addressing, your thoughts on that . I think thats a good point, we had a moment in time when with the murder of george floyd and all the events around it, republicans, democrats, when you look at polling, americans want to see more happen about racial justice, they want to see, the greatest increase in black lives and support theyve ever seen in just a few short days. Whats happened since that with that was very divided over issues on Law Enforcement, issues on what we should be doing with some of our Historical Monuments and there is a huge divide growing. The president is very much playing up the law and order of things, i expect to hear it again in arizona and it something that definitely plays into his base. There is a long time, lets not forget, between now and the election. Its a long and who knows whats going to happen . Anything can and we saw that and we are seeing it certainly now, i think we need to look statebystate, when you look at state by state much closer race than the polls would have you believe although michigan does look very good for biden right now, wisconsin does as well, arizona, florida, north carolina, pennsylvania, georgia, texas, this is far from a sure thing, hes definitely doing better, but youve got to look at this statebystate, the president really surprised everybody in 2016 was some of those key swing states. We expect to see him going there, doing his rallies and its going to be a long race between now and then. Neil no, youre right about that, that number, thats what gets you elected president. Thank you. The president going after those who want to go teardown statues, said there ought to be a law and throw you in jail if you try it. Is that legal . Was that your grandfather, leading armies to battle . Was that your greataunt, keeping armies alive . Drafting the plans. Taking the pictures. Was it your family members . Who flew. Who fixed. Who fought. Who rose to the occasion. When the world needed them most. Find and honor your ancestors who servered in world war ii. Their stories live on at ancestry. Neil take it down, youre doing time. The president of the United States going after those that wanted teardown monuments and statute statue saying if he has his way, youre going to go to jail. Judge andrew napolitano, what do you think . It turns out there is a statute which prescribes just as the president demanded, ten years in jail for defacing a monument in honor of veterans so if the monument to former president and former general Andrew Jackson was to him as president it doesnt qualify for the ten years and jail. If it was to him as general and thus a veteran, it does qualify. Its a 2003era statutes or right after 9 11 and it applies to monuments to veterans only. The outcome of the president cant dictate a jail sentence but he can certainly tell the doj what sentence to ask for if someone is convicted of a crime, as long as they asked4 number is within the statutory prescription and this one says ten years. Neil what if you are a confederate veteran going back more than a century . [laughs] you know, the statute does not explicitly distinguish, it just says veteran. Clearly those generals who statues were defaced and destroyed in virginia are as much veterans as Andrew Jackson, jackson, ulysses s. Grant and dwight d. Eisenhower are but i dont think those folks will be prosecuted under this statute though. Neil you know its interesting, we have ways to peacefully address, you dont like a statue because it is deemed offensive to you, there are more rational ways to go with about it, and im wondering if thats really why the president is saying here, think before you leap. Well, the president likes to advance this law order mantra and this furthers that advancement. I dont think the president is in favor of rewriting history but in the case of Andrew Jackson, this is one of his favorites. He keeps a portrait of Andrew Jackson a couple feet from his desk in the oval office. Neil thats a very good point. Thank you very much, youre right. That started something. Andrew napolitano, always good to see you, my friend. Really quick before we go here, record on the nasdaq today, amazon, apple, all these technology names, hitting alltime highs today. Optimism about the economy and everything opening up and that will continue. We shall see. Here comes of what the five. Greg hi, im greg gutfeld with jesse watters, dana perino, juan williams, and katie pavlich. The five. Turn on the news and what do you see . Destruction of public property after destruction of private property. But it makes sense, if youve grown tired of human victims, why not turn to the inanimate to satisfy your violent urges . Know monument is safe, even though statue of a famous abolitionist was defaced by the being turned out by politically correct universities aft
