Lets go straight to fox newss alicia acuna with the very latest from yuma. Alicia . Reporter david, actually when the president landed he made news on china. He told the u. S. Border patrol in a meeting before appearing before this crowd today he has canceled talks, u. S. Trade talks with china. He said he doesnt want to talk to them right now. He is postponing them. He is postponing. He is canceling for what . What they have done to the world. They will not continue at this point. He also said that he will make his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention Next thursday live on the south lawn of the white house grounds. So we have those two things coming out of here today. Right now, i am standing in an airport hangar at the yuma airport where he is addressing a packed crowd. This is 900 people in this 111degree temperature. 111degree weather here. These folks have been waiting for hours to hear the president. We have seen paramedics helping out a couple people. I dont care what neil cavuto says. This is not a dry heat. Not for when youre standing this long. President s second visit in less than two months. Arizona, once reliably red state is solid battleground state for him. He is making multiple visits here. He is trying to reacquire the popularity he had here before when he won in 2016, he beat Hillary Clinton in arizona by three points. He beat her however, that was narrowing of margin in comparison to past gop candidates. That caught attention of not only democrats but also republicans. They are putting on a fullcourt press, coming back, really striking a difference between the Biden Campaign which has made appearance online but obviously not in person. Nothing like this. David, i will tell you, i feel like im back in 2016, back on the campaign trail like it was at one point, really President Trump this week really upping the ante in terms of president ial campaigning during the pandemic. David . David quite a contrast with joe biden and his, his slow and very infrequent visits outside of the bunker that he has been in. Alicia, thank you very. Appreciate it. Stay with us right here on fox business as the acting deputy secretary of Homeland Security Ken Cuccinelli will be joining us later on the evening edit. Meanwhile out of control violence continues to grip cities across the United States. On the streets of portland, oregon, a man beaten by a black lives matter mob knocked unconscious . Well not show you the entire tape. It is too brutal. After being forced to crash his truck. Portland police are searching for suspects in the attack. In seattle, Police Released bodycam footage showing officers being targeted with explosives during riots, resulted in six injured officers and 1arrests. Seattle police chief, carmen best resigning shortly after protesters targeted her home and after she was offered little support from the mayor or the city council. And in new york city, escalating crime and more bloodshed. 53 shooting incidents since thursday. One at the Grand Central subway station at 10 30 in the morning, leaving 67 victims, 10 of them dead. Amid a nationwide push to defund the police. Lets welcome Detroit Police chief james craig. Chief, great to see you. Thank you so much for being here. Really appreciate the work that youve been doing in detroit. We should mention, you have had an increase in violence like many of the cities in the United States but not the kind of rioting that weve seen or sort of looting weve seen in places like portland and seattle and new york and chicago. Why not detroit . Well, let me just, david, just want to thank you for getting me on your show again. Appreciate it. I love telling detroits story. We didnt wait for something tragic to happen in our city to Start Building bridges in our community. We have great working relationships with our community. They have resisted from day one outside agitators coming in and trying to incite violence. These folks that are protesting daily by and large are not detroiters. Many of them not even metro detroit. So detroiters are angry. Theyre fed up, but the fact that we have a strong relationship of members about our community has gone a long way, really quelling violence. You look at, you know, im not being critical of other cities, but when i look at chicago, for example, and i see what appears to be chicago residents rioting and looting, why is that . Because these agitators have come in and theyre inciting violence. I have to go beyond that because you have do have councils places like milwaukee, like seattle, supposedly representative of the people who are voting to defund the police. At the very moment we need them the most and yet you have a poll out, there is a gallup poll, pretty legitimate poll, 81 of all africanamericans in america want same amount of police in their neighborhood or greater number of police in their neighborhood. Im wondering how much the representatives are representing what the people want . They dont. They absolutely dont, david. I know. I will take it a step higher. We have not done the gallup poll, i can tell you in detroit it is higher than 80 . Might be as high as 90. I tuck to detroiters each and every day. They dont want to defund the police. They support the department. It has been that way the seven years ive been chief here. So these people that come from outside, who claim to speak for detroiters are totally off base, just totally off base. Youre working well with the city leaders. The elected officials. That is not always the case as i mentioned. Police chief best, one the city councilwoman wrote the following tweet after she resigned. Police chiefs actions like most police chiefs, supported by most politicians guided at all times loyalty to the status quo and willingness to do the role of police under capitalism, defend deep inequality through on going repression of the poor, marginalized communities of color. This is city councilwoman, talking about seattles First Black Police chief in its history. It is extraordinary what she says. Is that, are you, youre not receiving any of that from the elected officials in detroit, are you . Absolutely not. There are a couple of city council who supported this whole defund the police notion. Obviously theyre not in touch with the constituency because their constituency, i can tell you definitely, they dont want defund the police, not close to it. And so it is tragic what happened to chief best. I know her. She was in a very difficult position. I am fortunate. Our mayor supports Law Enforcement. He supports reducing violence in our city. And so that is certainly makes my jobe a lot easier. There is no way were going to allow for no cop zones to establish themselves in this city. They tried. Every bit of 45 minutes. I had the covers with general barr today. I said youre not welcome here. So, take your goodies and go away. They did that. Different kind of place. David we should mention by the way operation legend has begun. Helping police that need it investigating, hunting criminals in the cities. What is the latest in detroit . I can tell you it is going well. This is continuation of already existing relationship that we worked so well with our federal partners for many years now. And so people have tried to create this false narrative that this was something that it was not. What it was not, it was never designed to manage our protesters. In fact, were one of the bright stars in the country. We didnt have looting and burning of buildings. We didnt have that here in detroit. David right. Because of our community. What we do have, what we do need, given everything that is going on today and detroits not in isolation, Violent Crime going up in a lot of major cities across the country. My old home where i was chief, cincinnati. This weekend in a period two of hours, 18 people shot. That has never happened. David yeah. So the point is we welcome the additional support. I had a chance to spend the day with general barr. We went up in a helicopter. Viewed an actual operation in progress. It was a troubled location in our city. And we went in there and we did what the Community Wants us to do. David chief, we have to leave it at that because were running short on time. We were talking before we came on air how it is not Rocket Science of the you worked with mr. Bratton, the police chief under Rudy Giuliani here in new york. They turned things around remarkably well. We know how to do it. Just the will to do it. Clearly you do have that will. We thank you for that. Chief james craig. Welldone, sir. Thank you very much. Coming up, breaking news on the battle over mailin ballots. The postmaster general announcing a halt to changes that democrats were calling for until after the election. Will that put the matter to rest . Or will democrats start another series of conspiracy hearings right before the election . The federalist Senior Editor Christopher Bedford weighing in on that coming [ engines revving ] its amazing to see them in the wild like th shhh. For those who were born to ride, theres progressive. We do things differently and aother Money Managers, dont understand why. Because our way works great for us but not for your clients. Thats why were a fiduciary, obligated to put clients first. So, what do you provide . Cookie cutter portfolios . Nope. We tailor portfolios to our clients needs. But you do sell investments that earn you high commissions, right . We dont have those. So, whats in it for you . Our fees are structured so we do better when our clients do better. At Fisher Investments were clearly different. David the postmaster general announcing this afternoon he will be holding off on changes that democrats have been screaming about until after the election. Will this mollify democrats, or, will they continue with hearings and conspiracy theories until way after the election . Senate home Land Committee security chairman senator ron john will presumably give the postmaster general to speak on friday before he face as House Committee on monday. What the heck is going on here and how will it affect the election if at all . Lets bring in the federalist Senior Editor Christopher Bedford. Good to see you. How far are democrats going to push on this . Im surprised they pushed this far but they will continue to push this. This is the second thing the post officer general has done to try to assuage these concerns. The first thing he did cancel moving and collection of mailboxes, the kind of routine activity that is extremely normal for the post office to be doing which has now got some kind of conspiratorial tone to it. All right. We wont do that until after the election. A lot of plans which were already in play before he came on board, before any of this mailin ballot stuff was announced, he will say that all right, we wont touch anything. The reality of the matter is, the union, the union want as lot more money for the post office. They have been very resistance to changes in the post office which is a fiscal disaster which will Something Better or streamlined anything. They realize if they attach this to the election they get the attention of everyone. Democrats signed on to it as well. David yeah. It is wild to see the level of misinformation and fearmongering. There will be problems with the post as, the only time i used a mailin ballot in 2012 or 2010, it never arrived. There will be issues. It is not because of some nefarious thing. David that is the point. Democrats wanted to see if their worst fears come true, they want to say what he did with the post office. Now he has taken that very smartly, taken that off the table. They wont have that cudgel if he wins reelection will they . No. They will still come after him, you havent given us enough money. The post office union will. Post office mail carriers union, democrats will, they want ad bailout. They have been pushing for a bailout for years. In the end the post office is fiscally solvent through this year. That will be fine. No amount of money will make it with the entire country voting by mail will go smoothly. David no. It will be disaster and votes will be lost. David weve seen it in action. Ironically Carolyn Maloney is the woman who is going to be chairing the hearing on monday that will being taking the postmaster to task. It is her disk that had this debacle of where, i dont know how many, was it 20,000 or 30,000 ballots that were deemed corrupted by various experts . She should know that there is a problem with mailin voting, that the problem is not with whether there is a cut at the post office . It is never going to be counted as fraud, either. Exactly, because people say, well some werent counted. You wont know if your vote didnt count. You wont know if your vote did count. You find huge caches in liberal or conservative districts, we found more votes. It is never called fraud with mailin ballots. That is what people are concerned about. David Christopher Bedford from the federalist. Thank you very much. Thank you. Sally yates threw former fbi director james comey under the bus saying that he went rogue.
