>> steve: a little fishing village. it was royal capital of hawaii. they evacuated as of yesterday 11,000 tourists. every tourist, please, leave maui now. 1500 left. they are going to try get them out today. >> ainsley: watching video of someone who owned it looked like an art gallery in the town. out on the street. watching the fires approach the town. could you imagine, everything that you worked so hard for. you built your home, your life, your businesses and you have to flee. some people were jumping in the ocean to prevent burns. >> steve: right. a dozen people jumped into the pacific and had to be rescued by the coast guard. when you think of hawaii, because it's surrounded by water you never really think about fire. >> ainsley: so beautiful there. have you been to maui, brian? >> brian: yeah. >> ainsley: some of the prettiest property i have ever seen. >> brian: we will see what happens as it develops. >> steve: one of the reasons the fire spread so quickly, and i was just watching janice dean a couple minutes ago the hurricane skated just to the south. 70, 80 mile-per-hour winds, the islands are crisp. it's terrible. >> ainsley: pray for our friends there. >> steve: more on that coming up in about 25 minutes. meanwhile, president biden gave his first response to testimony from hunter biden's former business partner, devon archer. >> ainsley: his remarks come as house republicans release the bank records that appear to show big money, huge money payouts to hunter from these foreign power brokers. >> brian: most democrats are saying nothing to see here. lucas tomlinson is in washington with the latest. lucas? >> good morning, steve, ainsley and brian. republicans say this alleged pay-to-play scheme was all an effort to bring millions to the biden family. of course biden first became a u.s. senator when richard nixon was president. many are asking where did all this money come from. our own peter doocy clearly keeping in shape during this paternity leave hopping the fence to ask president biden the following questions. >> there's this testimony now where one of your son's former business associates is claiming that you were on speaker phone a lot with them talking business? is that what -- >> -- never talked business with anybody. i knew you would have a lousy question. >> why is that a lousy question? >> because it's not true. >> thank you. >> we got go. >> peter: thank you, mr. president. >> here's the alleged text from hunter to his daughter not the one from arkansas, quote: i hope you can all do what i did and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years. it's really hard. but don't worry, unlike pop, i won't make you give me half your salary. in a now since deleted tweet communities director for president biden says the memo doesn't she payment to joe biden. that was later deleted. hunter biden receiving $20 million, including a porsche from russian oligarchs. china and ukraine while his father is president. committee republicans have once again released information on financial transactions that did not involve the president. the president have twisted and mischaracterized the evidence transparent and increasingly embarrassing attempt to justify baseless call for government inquiry. notably not denying the payments to hunter. ronald reagan's son. there is a difference in first families. when ronald reagan became president michael got a call from white house lawyer fred fielding saying you will be approached by many people trying to use you to get your father say no. reagan said he did. reagan said he was later offered $100,000 from zelenskyy to fly kyiv to endorse him. michael reagan said he said no to all these things, guys. >> steve: lucas is, jumping over the bike rack one of the things they teach in the d.c. bureau. >> you have to do it to get around. of course they close off streets from time to time. it's why you have got stay in shape. whether going to a concert or gnats game or something. don't want to talk about that no hitter last night in philadelphia. different subject. >> steve: our building on sixth avenue, all buildings on avenue of americas, bike ranks in front of them. >> ainsley: i just moved it aside. i didn't have to jump. i bet joe biden is like rats, i can't believe peter doocy is back from paternity leave. >> brian: i can't believe i have to do any interviews. one interview since july 15th. with the weather channel. no follow up question why we are no longer to dig or mine for uranium. >> ainsley: this is the first response that he has had from the devon archer testimony. >> steve: that's right. >> ainsley: first time that was, what, a week ago. >> brian: do you know who tony bobulinski is? he has never been asked that devon archer, there is a picture of you with a four some in it. are you going to tell me in those 18 holes, 36 poll holes that you played? >> ainsley: dinners at cafe milano. >> brian: nine separate bidens benefited from international businesses no known skill to give or service to receive. the only person, as andy mccarthy told bill hemmer and dana perino yesterday. the only business that the bidens have to give was joe biden's access. and joe biden's access. >> ainsley: it's a brand. >> brian: it's not virtual it. walls there from the voice -- from the speaker phone parachuting in 20 times over 10 years to the face-to-face meetings that we know of. joe biden is there. how he could say this is a bad question or lousy question is beyond me. >> steve: listen, whatever peter asked him, he was going to say i never talked business because that's what he told peter, what, four years ago at the iowa state fair when peter brought it up the first time. >> brian: the facts are changing. >> steve: well, you know what? >> ainsley: story. >> steve: one of the important things that, you know, even the white house has come out and they are not denying the fact. peter was talking about the speaker phone. devon archer's testimony you were on the speaker phone talking about business. >> he goes "i didn't talk about business." the president did not deny that he talked on speaker phones. because that would have been the thing that if i were the president and i had not been on the speaker phone i would say i never called in on a speaker phone. but he did not deny that instead he went to that answer he has given a million times i didn't talk about business. >> ainsley: even if he didn't talk about business one or two times on the speaker phone. it's hard to believe that he had 20 phone calls. dinner someone is going to come out and say that's not true. devon archer has basically said. this devin said he was there for the brand. we used his brand. he was the vice president. no, his son didn't have experience. he was on these boards but we used him as the brand to get to the vice president. and then all of a sudden, a billion dollars goes to the ukraine for aid. and if you follow -- so what happened yesterday is the republicans released these new bank statements it provides screenshots of the bank records. >> steve: a lot of the stuff we heard. >> steve: now we got little numbers. >> ainsley: 33,000, 83,000 every month. it was once a month that devon archer and hunter biden were getting. >> brian: about a million dollars a year. so they have this russian oligarch, yes lena baturina. few weeks meeting with the vice president of the united states. of course they weren't talking business. they were talking how great russia is and beautiful this time of year and some day they will take crimea. kazakhstan oligarch, this guy is the one who said here's $142,000 check to get a car which will later become a porch. what kind of service did hunter biden give? is he a lawyer? internationally known lawyer? is he a wonderful investor? none of those things panned out, but a meeting with the president did. that's what i think is so important. 2.5 million from russian oligarch. 142,000 for a car. what was the bidens giving up and does it play into policy then as vice president because he had the portfolio for ukraine, for example, played a major role in our border and central and stout american access the portfolio given by barack obama and what role does it play in his policies now? and, if nine separate bidens are benefiting who have done almost nothing, including his grandchildren, who is to think the president, who averaged $200,000 a year but a list of luxurious lifestyle was not benefiting? how was this not leading right to joe? >> steve: brian, you brought up a good point. the grandkids got money. wife did they get money? we have heard the numbers, a lot of numbers in a broadway from a republicans. and yesterday they gave us more bank records but, you know what? with all due respect the republicans need better investors because they have a lot of circumstantial evidence. but they have not shown that joe biden profited, personally. >> brian: they are doing great. or he broken any rules. >> brian: i vehemently disagree. this is so -- no, no. let me finish. >> steve: let me finish i started. >> brian: this is funneling right to him. >> steve: right. >> brian: at a rapid pace. they have had this job for eight months. >> steve: what is funneling him? brian is joe's presence involved in every major business deal that hunter was involved in as andy mccarthy said joe was the business. he had the access. >> steve: right. >> brian: hunter didn't. hunter didn't have the reputation. it's leading right there. >> steve: brian, what laws did joe biden break? >> brian: if the american people knew. >> steve: answer the question what law did he break? >> brian: number one the investigation is not done. >> steve: that's my point, brian. they need better investors. >> brian: do not want to hear any reporting until it's done or do you want to see the 19-page memo that bank records. >> ainsley: miranda devine started this. comer, the house republicans have been all over it. they are gathering all of the fact. all the facts are pointing to the fact that hunter biden was using his dad's influence to make millions of dollars for the family. >> steve: we just don't have the smoking gun yet. >> brian: this is a raging fire. >> steve: i have got a solution. this is what i was leading up to in talking about you they have got all this circumstantial evidence that points toward -- look, it looks bad for the bidens. it looks bad. >> brian: and for joe. >> steve: here what happens they do. it's hard to subpoena a president of the united states because of separation of powers. in front of the house. subpoena hunter biden and don't do one of these closed door depos. people need to see this televised. you need to see him answer the questions. and if he says something that disqualifies joe biden, you know what? the democrats would have time to replace him on the ticket. >> ainsley: the hard part is for americans is we're watching this family get away with so much. >> steve: we don't know what they have gotten away with yet. >> ainsley: americans believe there is a smoking gun. there is something that they're going to reveal. have they done that yet, maybe not. >> brian: they are there. >> ainsley: they are working their way toward that. >> brian: can we just hear john sullivan, he was on last night. he breaks it down. watch. >> you mentioned the russian oligarch baturina. she drops a million dollars payment to hunter biden's account in february. march and april of 2014, the conversations are continuing. hunter biden's checking, is yell lena going to invest in our new real estate project in new york. gets an answer she signed off on it. a couple days later she is having dinner with joe biden at the cafe milano. the pattern is very clear. what james comer is has done follow the money and then put a timeline together. it is very clear as to what is going. hunter biden was selling access to his father nothing his father can say to deny it. he went to the dinners, he got on the phone calls. it wasn't the allusion of access. it was access. >> brian: john sullivan said he was at the dinners, on the phone, golfing with these guys. the meetings took place air force 2 to mexico. meet carlos slim. if any logical american seeing joe biden playing a role in his son's business. the only reason is he in his son's meetings his son has he has the meetings. his father is vice president later to become the president of the united states. if they knew about this they would have changed their vote in 2020. he looked in the cam real in those debates and lied about having knowledge of his son's business dealings. we see the notes, the handwritten note to devon archer. everybody knows where this leads hunter does not have a business without his last name and his dad and his dad was present at all these meetings. what else do you conclude? >> steve: to my earlier point, the republicans just need to present the evidence to the american people and say, look, they have got to say okay,. >> brian: 19 pages wasn't enough yesterday. >> steve: we can prove joe biden broke the law by doing. this. >> brian: you only want a concluding sentence. you don't want to see the investigation? >> steve: i'm watching the investigation. >> brian: this investigation is the most damning leading to a culmination i have ever seen. >> steve: i said it looks terrible. we just need proof so the american public. >> brian: you said republicans are doing a terrible job. >> steve: i said they need better investors to do a better job. we disagree all i'm saying. >> brian: they are doing incredible job. >> ainsley: his dad is the vice president. >> steve: looks shady. >> ainsley: is that trading money for policy? >> brian: of course it is. >> ainsley: solution to smart phone addiction and why it involves a second device. >> steve: forget flying first class how about a trip to the universe? that's right, virgin galactic is flying paying customers to space inside the historic mission and they're taking off this morning here on "fox & friends." who needs coffee?

>> steve: a lot of cultural places of importance have been destroyed. max, given the fact that your family is in the fire fighting business in california. how is it different fighting a fire in california as opposed to on a small island in the middle of the pacific? >> well, i think there is actually more parallels then you might initially think ache says. ingress and egress getting out of the communities. that was a real challenge especially when we saw some people literally pinned up against the ocean. the flames bearing down on them. one parallel to some of the mountain communities and devastating fires we have seen in california and across the american west has been that ingress-egress issue. not being able to get in or out. and then also the winds. wind is also a factor on these fires. that was especially the case here on the island of maui. 85 mile-per-hour winds. when the winds are gusting that hard, it's really tough for firefighters to do anything. let alone stop the flames. so it's been a tough fire fight. you know, we were talking to some of the firefighters a little bit earlier. they are dog tired but they are just proud that they were able to stand up for their community here. >> ainsley: max, i'm sure you have heard this especially being a reporter and growing up in your family. i remember local news reporting on fires and the firefighters would tell me on the scene that a lot of people die because of the smoke inhalation. they go back in the house and think they can get the car keys out of the kitchen quickly and they breathe in all of that smoke. that's what ultimately kills them. >> yeah. it's a tough situation. you know, people don't understand all the time how dangerous these fires can be. right now, 36 people confirmed dead, unfortunately officials here are concerned that that death toll could rise. you know, in the coming days. hopefully that's not going to be the case. but, yeah. at love people they die due to smoke inhalation, due do being caught in their vehicles. a lot of dangerous situations that are brought up by one of these fires and unfortunately this one was fatal. >> brian: all right, max. check in with you again. appreciate it. >> ainsley: thank you. >> for more on this and weather janice dean. >> steve: mentioned the 85 mile-per-hour winds. that's what did it. >> janice: absolutely. the fire itself can be its own weather, right? it creates its own weather pattern. and we have there perfect set-up of high pressure to the north and then we have this strong hurricane to the south. and the pressure gradient between the two is what really whipped those winds up. i mean, it was devastating when you look at the aerial images coming out right now. you saw what max said and people had nowhere to go except the ocean. so we will -- this is really truly the biggest story in weather right now. the winds are coming down a little bit right now, which is good news for, you know, the airport, 10 to 12 miles per hour. as we go through the day today, winds are going to kick up again to 20 to 30 miles per hour. certainly not the 50, 60, 80 mile-per-hour winds that we saw yesterday. still, any wind gusts are not going to be a friend to firefighters. i just want to show you the prescription. the only island that has a deficit is maui. so it was this perfect storm of dry conditions, hurricane force winds and, you know, very warm temperatures as well. and i just want to show you that decrease. we have got that high pressure but dora is moving away from the island. still very strong storm. but, again, the impact will be lessening as we go through the next day or. so he so we will continue to monitor that. this was not a direct impact of the storm. this was indirect. so just goes to show you it doesn't take a hurricane making landfall to cause incredible damage. so we'll continue to monitor that and pray, of course, for the island of maui. back to you guys. >> steve: indeed, where it is currently 12:39 in the morning. thank you very much. j.d. coming up on this thursday, are you betting on red?
