We will hear from the girl and her mom this morning at 7 20 eastern. Eric holder is making new announcements. Is he adding fuel to the fire . Log on for his debate. Fox friends starts now. Bye. Good morning. It is tuesday, december 2. Im elisabeth hasselbeck. It was a meeting of the protesting minds. President Obama Holding discussions on the ferguson fallout at the white house all while launching a plan to retrain cops on the taxpayers dime. Thats you. Is this really the answer . We report, you decide. Why is al sharpton there . Meanwhile the president threatens to shut down the federal government if republicans the bad guys do not fund his amnesty action. But how much will that cost us . Were crunching the numbers straight ahead. Moses an inspirational icon in nearly every major faith but hollywood actorChristian Bale wonders if he was more like a terrorist. And if we should send in the drones. Mornings are better with friends. Hi everybody. Im huey lewis. Stand by for the news. Its funny. He always laughs in the same spot there. Its amazing. Yesterday i had no idea its only four blocks from our house here at 48th and 6th. But u2 without bono was down the block. How come no one said anything . You didnt try to get into the show . It was a wide open show. Bruce springsteen played the role of bono. Numberone fan. I heard about it earlier. You knew . In addition to that gee began particular meeting of the minds in addition to that gigantic meeting of
the minds musically, at the white house the president of the United States said im going to do something about ferguson. So he did yesterday. He had a meeting. He called in clear why he called in clergy and cops and talked about what happened in the wake. The president did not offer an opinion, however, on The Grand Jury decision, which many in his party do not like, but instead he came up with a plan to keep it from happening again, he hopes. It is a fourpoint plan we can outline here for you. 50,000 Police Body Cameras will be instituted here. Its going to be reviewed and implemented. The white house report a Police Militarization executive order on militarystyle equipment acquisition. We have military equipment. The military says why dont we give it to some of the Police Forces in some of the bigger cities in case they need t. For example, there is a nonstop Terror Attack and terror alert in
our country. You might like some of this military equipment. Should some of these dirty bombs go off or should there be widespread root rioting. The president said weve got to address the problem. I would love to see someone Say Something positive about Law Enforcement. Law enforcement is being thrown in the street as if everybody is bad and they all need to be massively retrained. They get more training for their job than 99 of americans get for our jobs. Is any of the money being invested really by the taxpayers, is any of that going to be pointed to abiding by the law and maybe improving relations from both ends. It seems a little onesided at one point when you look at that outline. President obama says hes deeply invested in this problem. A Solvable Problem but is one that unfortunately
spikes after one event, and then fades into the background until Something Else happens. What i try to describe to people is why this time will be different. And part of the reason this time will be different is because the president of the United States is deeply invested in making sure that this time is different. Thats great that he is deeply invested in it. I think we all are. The New York Post this morning on their oped page has this editorial. It says in part, if the president wants a solution that will save lives, tell people not to resist arrest or assault. They want 50,000 body cameras. Thats a good idea. I think it is a great idea. I dont see much pushback on Law Enforcement either. To spend 260 million on retraining. How many Police Forces out there are so bad they need to be retrained . That is an interesting point. That does infer that the training they have had is not enough . That says the cops out
there dont know what theyre doing. Of course if you listen to al sharpton over on msnbc, he pretty much sounds like that all the time. There he is extraordinarily in the Eisenhower Office building sitting opposite the president of the United States. It is extraordinary that this guy who does host a show offense at msnbc was invited. But the Lieutenant Governor of the great state of missouri, peter kinder said this regarding reverend al. I cannot imagine any previous american president of either party welcoming an inciter of mobs like reverend sharpton into the white house, into his inner councils for sober advice. Youre not going to get it from him. That may true especially people in new york. The one thing is he does pack the place. He goes into a congregation
on sunday. The church is mobbed and he is considered by many a leader in the Africanamerican Community. But is he considered a peacemaker . Hes a race baiter. You look at his history. You look atty what look at tijuana brawlly. You look at the fact that he owes millions on his taxes. How do you get away with that . I get a letter every week to pay 72. How do you get away with saying the fight is not over when youre in the white house, on the back of the president saying we should have peace on this. This doesnt seem to make sense. You either want someone who is going to help you maintain the peace or you dont. But the person in the oval office was al sharpton. A little concern by the Lieutenant Governor. Al sharpton said this. We live in a country where we must support Law Enforcement but Law Enforcement must support justice. Reverend al The Grand Jury did not indict officer
wilson. If youre going to support justice youve got to support that. One of the great Sports Personalities out there, he speaks his mind a lot of times controversially. You tell me if you think this is controversial or right on the mark. Im talking about Charles Barkley yesterday. We have to be really careful with the cops man. If it wasnt for the cops wed be living in the wild, wild west in our neighborhoods. I think we cant pick out certain incidents that dont go our way and act like the cops are all bad. You know how bad some of these neighborhoods would be if it wasnt for the cops . Theres no excuse for those people to be out there burning down peoples business, burning up police cars. And stopping traffic and blocking bridges when youve got to get to work. Listen. Governor christie, whether he knew everything or nothing about whats happened on the George Washington bridge he was vilified for his administration. People were fired for blocking one bridge on one day. Every city in this country that is a major city in
this country has been somehow diverted because of socalled peaceful and not so peaceful protests. Dont stop us from getting to work or getting home and say i have a cause. You can hear from Charles Barkley which, wheres the action for citizens to maybe perhaps get in line with what the Police Officers are trying to do in terms of keeping things civil . Wheres the training and budget for that . Is it in there . Were all looking for it. Is it a race thing or is it a crime thing . Imagine if the Police Protested and didnt show up . What Charles Barkley is saying it would be utter chaos. If youre upset the rams came out and showed how they are supporting Michael Brown in ferguson . Are you supportive of Charles Barkley speaking out like he did yesterday on the radio . Do you want your sports stars to speak out about the news . Weigh in, well be hopping
online. We cant wait to read those. The cost of amnesty. President obama saying hes willing to shut down the government if republicans wont pass funding for his immigration policy. Doug luzader is live in washington in the bureau with a breakdown on how much that is going to cost us. Good morning. Were talking about the cost of legalizing these folks. We know illegal immigration brings with it huge costs of its own from enforcement to health care to actual tax evasion. Thats the point the white house likes to jump on, as well as Immigration Activists saying if you legalize these folks all of a sudden they will be working above the table and that will help with u. S. Tax receipts. We see that, a total of about 350 billion of Economic Activity would basically be taken Out Of The Shadows and be essentially legalized. In terms of wage increases, were anticipating about 12 billion a year. So will it be a net gain
for the economy . The folks at the Migration Policy Institute crunched some of the stats as far as who these individuals are. Half have less than had a high school diploma. Half do not speak english well or at all. 35 are unemployed or not part of the labor force. The illegal population overall has on average about a Tenth Grade Education and earnings wise are probably going to be well below average. Thats why most likely just as anybody with an average Tenth Grade Education will probably not be a high earner and will end up paying less taxes than they receive in Government Services and benefits. One of the issues has to do with whats called the earnedincome tax credit. Thats for relatively lowincome individuals. Many of these Illegal Immigrants would qualify for the earnedincome tax credit which means when
they file their taxes at the end of the year, instead of sending money to the government, they get money back which is obviously a net drain on the treasury. Steve, brian, and elisabeth back to you guys. In many cases it can be thousands of dollars per family. Ainsley earhardt with her huge salary is with us today. You have a lot to bring us. Let me start with this headline. The suspected Serial Killer wanted for murdering four people in West Virginia is dead. Police found 39yearold jody hunt in his truck in the woods. They say he turned the gun on himself after an hourslong manhunt that
supporters want students in north dakota to pass a Citizenship Test before they graduate high school. Back to you guys. As long as we dont have to take a test. I think youd do okay, steve. I hope we all would. Coming up on this tuesday morning, Attorney General eric holder making bold guarantees on the heels of ferguson, missouri. This will institute Rigorous New Standards and robust safeguards to help end racial profiling once and for all. But what did the death of Michael Brown have to do with racial profiling . Were going to talk about that. No dolls or trucks for christmas . The new idea called no gender december attacking the toys right under your tree. How dare you. When you take advil you get relief right at the site of pain. Wherever it is. Advil stops pain right where it starts. Relief doesnt get any better than this. Advil. In the coming days i will announce updated Justice Department guidance regarding profiling by federal Law Enforcement. This, this will institute Rigorous New Standards and robust safeguards to help end racial profiling once and for all. That was attorney
general eric holder yesterday in atlanta discussing racial profiling in the wake of the fallout in ferguson, missouri. This as the president announces a taxpayerfunded plan to retrain Police Officers across the country, and Reverend Al Sharpton urges a continued fight for justice. Is this really making matters better or maybe worse . Joining us is milwaukees county sherrif david clarke. Good morning to you, sherrif. Good morning, sir. How are you doing . Doing fine. Thanks very much. Why the sudden push by the white house to do something about ferguson . What is the white house doing here . Its all theatrics. The white house understands the optics of this situation and so they create this flurry of activity and people mistake activity for accomplishment. I will resist any attempt by eric holder and the president of the United States, with all due respect, to try to run my office here at the local level. Policing is a local issue. We do not need federal involvement. All theyre trying to do is create this situation where
the neighborhoods at the local level that need policing the most will get it the least because it will cause people to back off when they really should be aggressive in terms of taking care of business. I think its a shame that the Attorney General paints this broad brush of Law Enforcement officers all across the United States of america. The cops at The Street Level and i Love Street Cops they dont have a voice e right now. I think its time to push back. I think every chief and sherrif in the United States of america and all these organizations like the national sherrifs, major county sherrifs, major county chiefs should begin to push back at any attempt of the federal government to run local Law Enforcement agency. Absolutely. Chief, let me ask you this. So many are trying to make this about race. Is this a race thing or a Law Enforcement, a crime thing . I dont know that its either of those two. I dont look at it as an eitheror proposition. The president held some
summit at the white house yesterday and invited, he said Law Enforcement and other people. I wish he would have invited me because i would have looked at him and i would have pushed aside the thee i cant theatrics and say mr. President our people in milwaukee cant find meaningful work. You spent 1 trillion on a package you said would create jobs. Where are the jobs . Why do our kids in these urban centers have to attend failing Public Schools where they are shackled to a life of crime and violence . These kids will not reach their potential. We need better schools for our kids. Those are the issues. The creation of the Welfare State has not helped this thing. Its created a Growing Underclass and we saw the behaviors of the Underclass On display last week. I would say why dont you issue an executive order and have it audit programs that have made it worse
because they keep people addicted to handouts. That is what is wrong in these ghettos. It is not the police spoivment you got you got it right. Sherrif, always a pleasure. Thank you for your straight talk. More in a minute. Memorabilia including scripts, props and war droap. Wardrobe. Ask people who moses is and they will probably say he parted the red sea. But ask actor Christian Bale who plays him in the movie exodus, he has a different answer when asked that. Absolutely seen as a Freedom Fighter. Hebrews but terrorist in terms of the Egyptian Empire. What would happen to moses if he arrived today . Drones would be sent out after him. Here to weigh in is Fox News Religion Contributor father jonathan morris. Interesting take. Moses a terrorist . I think he said in relationship to the Egyptian Empire and the egyptians were holding the hebrews as slays. Slaves. In todays terms . Then the drone thing, it makes it sound like the big bad guys are the ones who use drones. Of course that would be the u. S. And the west against terrorism. I dont like the comparison. Put it that way. Do you believe that is fair to what moses did . No. He certainly wasnt thinking about drones. He was a Freedom Fighter, no doubt. But a Freedom Fighter called by god to go up against an empire that was keeping the hebrew people enslaved. I guess when you hear the word terrorist now. Because youre saying drones. Youre looking in the past, not looking at now. It doesnt seem to people he was alluding to how they would have seen him then. He was describing modern terms. He also referred to moses as a schizophrenic. When you go
