congressman earl bblumenauer. saying we live in a democracy not a banana republic. welcome, everyone to the 6:00 a.m. hour of "fox & friends," joined today by jason chaffetz in for pete. griff jenkins back better than ever. including what is going on in portland. uptick in portland continues. a lot of clashes when it comes to politicians whether they want federal authorities in their cities to calm things down or do not. griff? griff: portland will be a big story because you have lawlessness for seven weeks. the streets of portland are out of control yet the local leaders from the governor, the senator, the mayor, are refusing federal assistance while the feds come under fire. much has been made about the video on social media of agents apprehending a suspect in the street, putting him in unmarked van. yet the feds say that is necessary tactic to protect officers. that that individual, that you see on the social media tape was suspected of damaging federal property, which is why they were put there in the first place. a lot to come on this, jason. jason: the president i think has been somewhat restrained. because this has gone on for so long. the violence is so aggressive. i got to tell you, nancy pelosi and earl blumenauer they must have messed up their statement, to suggest they don't want to abba nana republic. look how period of time land is being administered. people don't want to walk down the streets. families can't go downtown to the areas violence continues day after day, month after month. there is federal responsibility at some point. you have a democratic mayor. you have a democratic governor. you have a democratic attorney general and nancy pelosi and earl blumenauer don't want this, because they are supporting the antifa efforts and it is fundamental wrong. the chief of staff of president trump, mark meadows weighed in on this. listen to what he has to say. >> for the vast majority of americans what we can support are peaceful protesters willing to stand up for a cause. what we won't tolerate and what we shouldn't tolerate is the an arcry we continue to see in some of our cities across the country, even tonight in the streets of portland and other cities where tragically it is not about a peaceful protest with a message. in fact many times hard to even describe what the message is. we got to make sure law and order is restored there. i can tell you that general barr and the president of the united states are fully engaged. you will see more on that in the coming days. jason: mark meadows is exactly right. he reflects sentiment of americans across the country who don't recognize this type of violence. it is not just portland. it is chicago, other major cities, it has to stop. if democrats think how they will win elections this is the right thing to do, these are not peaceful protests. these are violent riots. these are anarchists trying to take over america. we all have to stand up to make sure it doesn't happen anymore. griff: jason, i would say though with regard to pelosi and blumenauer statement, you would say that they are supporting antifa and an a differents, i'm not so sure that is the characterization as much as criticism, as i reported on thursday from that night's damage on "fox & friends," the police reported $23 million in damages to downtown business. the role of government is to protect life, liberty, property. they are absolutely failing in that respect when it comes to 23 million, you see in downtown areas just like this? when it comes to sort of a political matter it really the rule of law that matters most. you're seeing the miss folks, the people on the front lines trying to get this under control, speaking out. you mentioned chicago, jason. the president of chicago's police union writing in a letter to president trump says, these politicians are failing the good men and women of this city and the police department. i pushed back on their failing liberal policies. i really believe your help and cooperation could make a big difference to rally the sigh meant majority to say enough is enough. that is the police reaching out to the president for help because there is -- within. jedediah: just to keep in mind, the reason that the federal authorities are being brought in because the local political officials don't do anything. so ideally would the feds have to get involved in this, no. this should be a job for local law enforcement supported by local politicians, by the mayor, the governor. the mayors and governors of cities should not want to see massive violent upheaval in their locals, they should care about the citizens. they should care about the citizens. they should care about maintaining peaceful protests standing up to violent processes. that is not what is happening. i would ask the mayors and governors, what will you want to do, if you want to force out the feds they're inflaming the situation, the protests that have turned violent have been going on for weeks, upon weeks, upon weeks. there is massive destruction. you have done absolutely nothing. what did you think was going to happen? at some point it become as federal problem because the local officials are not doing what they can and should do, largely for political reasons, jason. jason: it doesn't have to be this way. look, in chicago alone there ising is like 1900 shootings. i mean those numbers are just absolutely stunning. up if you look at portland, and you look at chicago and you look at new york, and the list keeps going, there seems to be a concerted effort by these mayors, by these democrats that are in the governors positions to let this happen. if you're not going to call out antifa, if you're not going to call out these anarchists and not try to suppress the violence, that is so fundamentally and wholly different than a peaceful protest which i think we would all support. you also have to call it out for what it is. i don't see these political leaders doing. that was what reflected from the police there in chicago, asking, pleading, helping, hoping that we get some help from the feds to back them up. jedediah: we see how the trump administration is handling this. president trump taking a serious stance, being a law and order president, this will not be tolerated these type of violent upheavals in the cities. a question on a lot of people's minds how would a joe biden, or joe biden administration handle the very problem. in a larger sense what would a biden administration look like? what h would it be a centrist administration? would be it a more far left administration? we see him taming ideas from aoc and bernie sanders on energy policy and beto o'rourke on guns. headline in "boston herald." scary thought. biden won't be the worst thought of a biden presidency. biden is already stepping aside letting the liberal radicals having their way with the platform and we're only in july. with the lifelong swamp creatures and biden family there is no short of ambition in the white house if the america votes the former vice president into 1600 avenue. joe biden will be the least of our worries. what do you think? griff: grace curly was a radio show producer. and i was one back in the day. she has really got a good point here. look at impact elizabeth warren had in shaping biden's policies from the time they're in the primary in terms of what we're seeing what he is laying out in regards to a green new deal. otherwise it is unmistakably clear his administration will go much further left than joe biden came initially into the primaries however many days ago and so i think that's certainly something that is yet to be told but one thing you can bet on whether or not a person like elizabeth warren is running mate or the treasury secretary it is going to be a very different biden administration i think if it comes to pass. jason? jason: yeah. no, i think that headline is right. i think america will wake up to the idea that joe biden, i mean who is, who are the puppeteers behind joe biden? these are some of the most radical leftists positions there have been and believe bernie sanders when he said if joe biden is elected he is going to be the most progressive president since fdr i think was his quote and i'm afraid that is where they're going. driven griff good point. another story we're following. tribute are still pouring in for john lewis after his death at the age of 80. flags flying in half-staff in washington to honor the congressman and civil rights icon. jedediah: mark meredith is live with the messages coming in from around the nation. reporter: good morning to you. tributes coming in from presidents, world leaders and everyday americans. so many people eager to honor the man known as the conscience of congress. he died at the age of 80 on friday. the civil rights leader led a long career of public service after spending more than three decades in congress. mourners could be spotted in atlanta, his home congressional district to pay their respects. we received a tweet from president trump over lewis' passing. sad to hear of john lewis' passing. melania you and i. send our prays to he and his family. joe biden said, he was always a moral compass and which direction to march. we also heard from house majority whip jim clyburn. >> john was one of those people who internalized non-violence. many of us practice it but john lived it. we're going to miss john lewis. but john lewis, will be forever in our hearts, in our minds and yes, in our souls. reporter: while funeral plans are still being worked out there is a push to rename the edmund pettus bridge in he selma in hor of john lewis. we'll see if the petitions go. back to you guys. jedediah: thank thank you, mark meredith, we appreciate that. we'll turn now to your headlines beginning with a fox news alert. three members of the thin blue line motorcycle club are killed in a crash on a texas highway. police say they were struck by a suspected drunk driver. the club is made up of former active and former law enforcement officers. they were on a ride celebrating the cub's birthday. nine others are in critical condition. police have arrested the driver. more than 600,000 people worldwide have now died from covid-19. the world health organization reporting nearly 260,000 new confirmed cases, a daily record. the u.s. also setting a new daily records in arizona. nearly 150 people died on saturday, a new high. north carolina and missouri setting new infection records. north carolina seeing more than 2,000 new cases. missouri reporting nearly 1000 cases. major league baseball holding its first exhibition games before the new season. no stands were allowed -- fans were allowed in the stands. the nationals took on the philadelphia phillies. some players wore face masks during the game. the league is using cardboard cut outs to fill stands. opening day is thursday. those are the headlines. griff: play ball. i love it. coming up new york city mayor de blasio banning the nypd from using chokeholds. one police commissioner north of the city is telling officers stay out of new york city, calling the new law reckless. i'm not hungry! you're having one more bite! no! one more bite! ♪ kraft. for the win win. well the names have all changed since you hung around but those dreams have remained and they've turned around who'd have thought they'd lead ya back here where we need ya welcome back, america. it sure is good to see you. ♪. griff: welcome back. police in one new york county will no longer cross in the city to make arrest for crimes in their jurisdictions. yonkers police department is the latest law enforcement age is to tell officers to stay out of new york city over police reform bills. saying a provision on the city's my r new chokehold ban could put cops in trouble. the police commissioner joins us now. john, good morning to you. >> good morning, griff, how are you? griff: this is not necessarily a surprise. you and many other police chiefs and union presidents were saying hey, don't do this, don't sign this bill because of liability position it puts officers in. now you told your officers to stay out of the big apple. explain. >> absolutely griff. it's a very sad day. i never thought we would see this in my time in policing and i would note also commissioner shea also really tried to express his concern about this and legislation was pushed anyway. now it is not just yonkers. it is westchester county police now, suffolk county. i new rochelle. you're seeing a lot of different agencies that surround the five boroughs following suit. griff: john, do you believe that the leaders, on the city council in new york that pushed this in albany were hasty in their decision, rushing to get some sort of thing on the bill without fully considering the impact it would have on the fundamental job that officers have which is to enforce the law? >> i would characterize it as nothing short of reckless and irresponsible. we want police reform. we understand the need for it. it has been going on for a long time. it is important to note that the nypd has been the light for a lot of other law enforcement agencies as far as leading progressive policies, policies that are in tune with how we police our people. so this is a real, it is just a shame, that we have, new york city council, that seems to be operating in echo chamber. that isn't particularly interested in talking to experts, sharing opinions, and giving opinions and reasoning together. when you do things like hastily, there are going to be consequences. unfortunately the consequences are going to affect the folks that need us the most. griff: we retched out to mayor de blasio. we have not heard back. when it gets to the state level, really the national level, police reform will come back sooner rather than later, whether before or after the election, what advice, john, mr. commissioner do you have for those writing the laws? >> i think the most important thing is to remember what you were elected to do. to listen to everybody. i don't think there should be a competition where a very small majority who is the most shrill should drive an agenda. i think we need to listen to everybody. we need to listen to police. we need to listen to community activists. we need to listen to the important faith based clergy and organizations like that. to put us in the position to get where we need to get with respect to policing in a way that everybody is comfortable with. that communities feel safe. because of the police, feel very important secure with the police griff: john mueller, police commissioner of yonkers. thanks for joining us. >> thanks so much, griff. griff: still 107 from the presidential election and there is one big issue about to dominate the campaign trail. here is a hint. it is not the economy. lee carter is on deck. so what's going on? i'm a talking dog. the other issue. oh...i'm scratching like crazy. you've got some allergic itch with skin inflammation. apoquel can work on that itch in as little as 4 hours, whether it's a new or chronic problem. and apoquel's treated over 8 million dogs. nice. and...the talking dog thing?

joining us now, with insight is president and partner of of milansky and partners, lee carter. is the issue were reopening schools will be a key issue in the 2020 election? >> there is no question about it but i would say the biggest issue coming up for voters is really about our safety and school is just one component of that. i think, unlike in 2016 where the number one issue for voters was the economy and jobs, the midterm election was defined by health care i think this election will be defined by who people will keep them the most safe physically and emotionally in this moment. that has to do with covid. that has to do with a lot of issues around the police we're talking about. who will make you feel most safe. what we're feel something the beatle for that. jedediah: i want to focus on the schools for just a moment. a recent poll out of reuters that show most americans don't feel it is safe. we had a panel of moms on yesterday. two out of three moms say, hey, i'm not comfortable now given the circumstances sending my kids to school. is the trump messaging, let's get back to school, not providing that very specific guideline, is that going to be a problem for him? >> i think it could be somewhat of a problem for him. i think it is important what he is focused on i'm going to urge people to get back to schools as quickly as possible, but i'm leaving it up to the state. that is very much a republican message, we'll put up to governors, put it up in states but urging folks get back to school as quickly as possible. many people agree with that. they want kids back at school. there is a lot of reasons why school is so important to children, to provide structure and important things. many are concerned about less concerned about children being exposed to coronavirus than adults or more at risk. you have to break it apart. two out of three moms are concerned but that doesn't mean they necessarily would say i don't want to send my kids to school. they want to see what the schools are doing. will they have more teachers, social distancing. are they doing, alternating days, saying one set of kids, the next set of kids. this is case-by-case basis. you have to look at to see what your schools are doing whether or not you feel safe. that is very, very hard for the president himself or for joe biden's sake exactly how that will work at the district level and the classroom level. jedediah: yeah. also a lot of parents are very frustrated with remote learning and seeing challenges, concerned about their childrens development being so far removed from other children or the school setting. that will certainly come into play in the polling. lee, thank you for being here as always. >> thank you. jedediah: coming up, police reform is a hot topic on capitol hill but some democrats say they may punt until after the election. jack brewer sounds off on that coming up next. experience the adventure of a bigger world in a highly capable lexus suv. at the golden opportunity sales event. get zero percent financing on all 2020 lexus models. experience amazing at your lexus dealer. on all 2020 lexus models. i was always comparing myself nefertitito my sisters.irl they were always thin and i wasn't... i ate a lot of food. and then after i had my son it was really difficult to lose the baby weight, and everything took so much time and energy and i didn't have that. and then i tried noom, it was easy and it was super convenient. it's effective, i'd say it's life changing. my my name is nefertiri and noom worked for me. visit noom.com and lose the weight for good. did you know liberty mutual customizes your car insurance ta-da! so you only pay for what you need?

>> what a legend. you know, our heart as americans should go out to his family and really this is a time to reflect on the history of a man who was arrested over 40 times, fighting civil rights in a time when our country was so divided. he stood up against jim crow laws. then worked, basically half of his life on voter rights for african-americans who didn't even get a chance to go cast a ballot. just decades ago. it is just a reminder, it wasn't that long ago, it also shows you how far we have come in this country in america to see a man who could have lived to see so much division and live a life and see african-americans go on to do so many great things and you know it is just a time as america to come together, come together around the man's legacy that meant so much to our country. griff: jack, that is a great point. we should aspire our words should mean so much. john lewis never lost hope in the greatness of america, that we could change it t was a great true non-violent warrior. i want to take you to another topic as we look forward, jack, what to do about police reform. it appears that some democrats now are hoping that we just push that into the next administration, whether it is trump or biden. here is a quote from representative bobby rush on holding off on police reform right now, talking to "the hill" newspaper, rather than coming up with a police piece of the police reform act, we should move this over to after the election with something more powerful. we don't want to make a mockery of this moment. we don't want something to pass into the law, that is weak, watered down and white-washed. what do you think? >> that is very unfortunate. democrats so often, especially on criminal justice reform they put politics over the people. they did the same thing for decades with criminal justice as they kept so many black men mass incarcerated in our prisons across america. you know, barack obama came into office and had the house and senate and they all refused to pass the bill. joe biden wrote those laws. now criminal justice reform, we're seeing the exact same approach. you're seeing a party who is concerned about how much money they can raise in the fund-raising. they're certained with the politics who gets credit for this or that. it is time to put people first. i'm sick and tired of seeing this. americans should be sick and tired of seeing this. seeing a country where we elect these officials and they don't put our best interests at heart. we need police reform now. the police need that. where police officers are can't even go and feel safe at work. citizens in some part of our country don't feel safe when they get pulled over. it is time to put protocols in place, to bring law and order to this nation and protect our most vulnerable people. it makes no sense to put off a policy in a time when our country was so divided. jason: jack, part of the reason they're doing, that nancy pelosi has congress in session just for a few more days. they really don't have time based on nancy pelosi's calendar. i want to get your quick reaction what you see in the violence in new york, chicago and in portland because they have had riots going on in portland for weeks now and there is a conflict because they don't want the feds. they don't want donald trump to protect federal buildings for instance. what is your reaction to that? >> it is very sad. first off, jason, it is sad that we're just now highlighting these issues. you know all of my adult life i've been watching the streets of our inner cities get worse and worse, ran by drug dealers, ran by people fighting for turf and it has to end. it has to stop. the mainstream media won't cover it. now people are starting to cover it. just because it is actually helping conservatives to show america what is going on in our streets. so on both sides, i'm tired of it. i'm tired of everyone using politics to get control and gain power and putting it over the people. this has to stop. these are all democratic red cities. no one be confused. every single city and town that you see is ran by a democrat. they have the power and authority. they have attorney general offices. they have mayors. they have local elected officials that could stop some of this mess if they really wanted to but they refuse to do it. you know, at some point you have to give back to god. you got to get back to biblical principles in our nation, do what is right. stop fighting so hard for power, start putting people first. loving our neighbor like ourselves instead of looking at our own best interests. democrats who are leaders know they're cities are being torn apart. they know in their core what they're doing. they are trying to gain political points. they are appeevessing instead of leading. >> unfortunately, jack, the reality if the local democrats and politicians refuse to do anything about it, the feds have no choice but to step up, people live in the communities. communities need to be kept safe. what you see going on is outrageous. jack brewer thank you. >> god bless you guys. griff: god bless you. turning now to the headlines. three friends were murdered on a fishing trip. police in polk county florida was called by the father of one of the victims. he rushed to the scene when his son called him begging for help. he found his son barely alive and other two men were dead. >> all three of them dead, murdered, worse than that they're massacred. i've been to a lot of murder scenes in my life and this ranks among the worst i've been to. griff: police do not know if the killers knew the victims. armed st. louis couple who protected their home while protesters broke into their gated community are blasting media criticism of them. mark mccloskey speaking out with jesse watters last night. >> st. louis media has been slandering or maligning us. there was editorial saying i'm a despicable person, everybody should like me. that is not against the law. sure we hate mr. mccloss ski and you should to. griff: police seized the rifle even though he owns it legally. the governor he would likely pardon the couple if they are charged. center said new documents showed the core are up nature of fbi. newly-released memo yet inch by strzok said no evidence was found. contradicting a "new york times" article. strzok slammed graham, writing, senator graham's statement represents another attempt by president trump's congressional lackeys, to use pete's work, paint the russia investigation as a political witch-hunt. police officer received additional training in ohio. police in shaker heights sharing this video of kids teaching an officer how to skateboard. this showing the struggling officer how to stay on the board. the department joking on facebook, writing in part we become concerned our training program is lacking. all our officers are taught how to do a ollie, frond side 180, a back side 180 and a rail stand. a kid grew up skateboarding i absolutely love that story, yesterday. jedediah: this reminds me i was never taught how to skateboard. i will have to get on that. there is someone i think may know how to skateboard but i'm not 100% sure but adam klotz, do you know how to skateboard?

joining us now is cara frederick a fellow at the center for new american security. thank you so much for joining us. it's a little disconcerting, isn't it, these teenagers, one who was living with his mom was able to hack into high-profile accounts at twitter? >> you know, nothing wrong with living with your mom when you're a teenager but i would say the thing that most americans don't know is that a lot of these social media companies, they have a bevy of internal tools vulnerable to exploitation with people with pretty highbrow hacking skills. even if the attacks are a bit amateurish which seems to be the according to the american intelligence community. these are vulnerable to attack even by the most unlikely people. jason: twitter, facebook and others they collect a lot of information about individuals. if you're just the average person who signs up for facebook or in this case twitter, what are you supposed to do to protect yourself? >> so that is the problem. it, trust is the coin of the realm when it comes to the american people and social media company and if that trust is betrayed like it was here then americans, they need to be on their guard more than ever. there needs to be a social sector awareness what can happen to your information. a very interesting conversation going on in the halls of d.c. and even within the social media companies themselves is end to end encryption. the new information in terms of the twitter hack, personal information of not even high-profile account that benefited bitcoin scam but other accounts were downloaded by the hackers. i will look to see if that is released piece mail for blackmail or anything like that. the super interesting to know that the hackers could potentially have the information. that should trigger people, treat direct messages because they're not encrypted. don't put anything in there you don't want on the front page of "the wall street journal," "new york times" or washington post. guard your information carefully because it is easy to be exploited. jason: that is a little late for me on that one. it is scary, when you got anybody from a guy in a van down by the river who can go in to hack these thing. even teenagers are able to get into it. does twitter have any excuse at this point? >> twitter can do better in some arenas there are concrete ways they can actually do that. no excuse for them not to give a full accounting to the american people. that can start with a public transparency report. this can, like we used to say in military intelligence, this can encompass the five ws, who, what, where, when, why. tell americans, make a practice of telling americans this is what happened to their data so they can take the onus on themselves if the tech companies are not going to do it to protect their own data. once more social media companies, facebook, twitter, youtube, all of these companies can make it a common practice. issue the reports. maybe the government has to incentivize them to do it. if they do this the american people can better arm themselves because twitter is not cutting it right now. jason: twitter did apologize. i think the encryption discussion on capitol hill will be one to watch. cara frederick, thank you so much for joining us early this morning. >> thank you, jason. jason: coming up, one lemonade company hopes to juice up the economy by bailing out little entrepreneurs. we'll explain next. ♪. griff: welcome back. turning lemons into lemonade. young entrepreneurs struggling in the pandemic will get some sweet relief. >> it is lemonade stand season. >> lemonade for sale. >> but this year things are looking dry. but now the smallest of small businesses are about to get some help. countrytime introduces the littlest bailout. stimulus checks to help kids preserve values of lemonade stand, honest work an entrepreneurship while putting a little juice back into the economy. jennifergriff: help is on the w. thank you for taking time. i love this story. lemonade stands are iconic image of this summer. you guys are putting ad out. why are you doing it? >> for the past few years now, country time has established a brand that will fight for the little guys, lemonade stand owner, paying fees for fines for small business permits or pushing legislation to legalize lemonade stands, country time strives to eliminate barriers to for a child's entrepreneur spirit. what we saw the covid-19 was doing to all the businesses an relief efforts in place for them we wondered what country time could do to help the littlest near and dear to us. we decided to create the littlest bail out for child entrepreneurs to better learn the value of money. griff: that is a great point. i give kudos to country time, people don't know this, lemonade stands for kids are outlawed in 34 states. you have been there to help kids, to pay fines. what they're saying about the latest effort and pandemic, we're talking about yesterday. here is what dan says. he says kudos to country time. i thought it was real cute and i applaud it. go kids. joanne says, sending us this adorable photo of their granddaughter's lemonade stand in action. andrew, penelope writes this, bailout for kids is horrible idea. it stifles entrepreneurship, encourages looking for a handout. what is your reaction to that? >> you know, i think there are valuable lessons for kids to learn when it comes to managing money, save it, invest it, spend it to put a little juice back into the economy there is also skills to be had from running a lemonade stand aside from learning value of money. lemonade stands teach kids about entrepreneurship and learning values that come with running a business such as hard work, patience and perseverance. griff: that's great. in the time left, andrew, to be serious for the kids, you can apply to chance to get 100-dollar check for your kid, going to country time bailout,.com. is that correct? what is the deadline? >> august 12th. griff: august 12th. andrew, thanks for joining us. thanks for country time supporting lemonade stands. have a great sunday. >> thank you very much. thanks for having me. griff: still ahead the house is on session and covid-19 relief is on top of the agenda. what can we expect?

[shouting] griff: begin this hour going right to a fox news alert. a police union building set on fire during violent clashes in portland overnight. jason: the fire was quickly extinguished. this is the 52nd straight night of protests and unrest in the city. jedediah: the violence coming hours after oregon's attorney general sues the feds demanding federal officers stop arresting rioters. welcome, everyone to the 7:00 a.m. hour of "fox & friends." here with griff jenkins, jason chaffetz, covering the latest particularly what is going on in portland. it is really crazy to see all of this, griff. we're on the heels of covering seattle and the autonomous zone. there are some political leaders around the country in these cities, so many mayors, so many governors refusing to do their jobs it is really stunning to see the amount of violence and the amount of destruction they have allowed to ensue. now many of them saying we don't want the feds in our city, particular any in portland. what other choice is there at this point? griff: what is stunning, jed, we're talking about the local officials there abdicating their responsibility, their fundamental responsibility to protect the life, liberty and property of their citizens and portland mayor, ted wheeler was absolutely blasting the president and the dhs on friday, saying essentially, that never mind what is happening in our streets for seven straight weeks, night after night, causing $23 million plus damage to downtown businesses in portland. this is all about president trump's attack on democracy. here is what the mayor said. listen. >> the videos, the pictures, the experiences that we're all witnessing here in portland should be shocking to all americans. the words and actions from president trump and the department of homeland security have shown this is an attack on our democracy. griff: we want to bring in now georgia congressman doug collins. congressman, what do you make, i mean, when you look at what is happening in portland, is it lawlessness and anarchy in the streets or is it an attack on democracy as the mayor says? >> well i'm not sure what the mayor actually understands democracy to be. riots and peaceful protests are two different things. when you're destroying $23 million worth of property, when you're building burnings, you have absolute chaos in your street, he doesn't understand basics of government, government is there to keep and have civil order to people feel safe in the community. there is no way this mayor and can say to the people of portland, you're safe, go out do the things people of freedom under our law and form of government can do. this is disgraceful that a mayor would believe anarchy is the way it is looking right now is actually normal and to attack the president for your own failures, mayor, look around your city. it is burning because you're the mayor, you need to take responsibility. the president is trying to help. dhs is trying to help because they're not going to turn a blind eye to those that want tonally destroy property this is not about civil protest but destruction and lawlessness. the mayor of portland needs to step down, he is definitely not a mayor. he is being a social commentator. jason: congressman, it is jason chaffetz. you sit on the house judiciary committee, nancy pelosi, jerry nadler, any other committee in congress are they bringing in democratic governors, attorney generals, any people mayors of portland or chicago or new york, are they having any sort of hearings or emergency meetings about the violence, the riots, the things that are going on, is that any of that happening in washington, d.c.? >> no, jason it is awful. you have been there before. you understand what this is going through. a democratic majority, speaker of the house undoubtedly hasn't looked around to see what is going on when she talks aabout people do what they do. jerry nadler has not been a competent chairman for 18 months. we've seen that when he attacked president. they're not bringing anyone in. they're allowing it to go on. they want to cause, it looks like turn a blind eye because they believe the november election will hinge on if the president can handle issues going on which i believe he will. they're mower more focused on winning elections than governing. what is sad people's property is destroyed, lives are being lost, because the mayors and governors will not do their job. until they do a couple things, get rid of their own security details, until they find out what the police do on day-to-day basis, get rid of bad officers and get rid of folks, bring order to their cities and the state, frankly wish they do their job or shut up. i'm tired of mayors and governors, speaker pelosi and nadler abdicating their responsibilities in order to win elections this is sad. jedediah: you mentioned speaker pelosi. we have a statement in part from her that will read now. while portland is the president's current target, any city could be next. we live in a democracy, not a banana republic. we will not tolerate the use of oregonians, washingtonians or any other americans as props in president trump's political games. the house is committed to moving swiftly to cush egregious abuses of power immediately. i don't really understand what nancy pelosi isn't seeing, congressman. if you look at these images of what is going on in portland, very similar to the images we saw in seattle, it is terrifying. it is terrifying for citizens to live there it is terrifying to own a business there. what is she not getting about the complete abdication of leadership by democratic mayors and governors in those cities and states? >> she lives in a bubble with her own security detail that goes with her everywhere. she feels safe where she goes. she assumes the rest of the world is okay. these are not civil protests maybe she needs an eye examine stead of coming to work. no way you see this as normal. no way that any city in this country or any state can allow this to continue. what is happening is again, notice what is happening. instead of dealing with issues and problems of those who are causing destruction and causing terror in these cities. she is focused on a election with president trump. she is the one abdicated her responsibility. we've seen it how she run the house last 18 months. she won't let us come back to have regular debates and order. she keeps everything closed up. she turns around to attack the president, when folks and cities, democratic mayors and governors allowing this to happen. blaming the president for it. when you don't know how to do something, get out of the way, let somebody who knows how to control this happen or quit complaining about it to other people. we've got to get law and order back here. that means everybody's rights are taken care of. civil protests are the hallmark of our country. that is what we absolutely have. that is how we express ourselves to the government. want ton destruction of property, riots, that is criminal activity, mayor of portland, speak of the house, share one thing in portland. they're blind to reality of their streets, they are so focused on political agenda. can't help their people. griff: speaker pelosi are criticizing, they saw on social media video of federal officers with no name tag putting individuals suspected of destroying property in unmarked vans. they haven't run from that the administration. they say these are necessary tactics for safety of the officers. these were individuals suspected. we'll see how it plays out. i want to move forward this coming week, you are back in session along with senate majority leader mitch mcconnell will roll out the phase four coronavirus relief package coming up next there is quite a lot of disagreement. where do you see things headed tomorrow? >> i have hope that there is more discussion about what is going on. i think as we look ahead to the possibility. there is areas which we can come into agreement on, dealing with smallest businesses, dealing with some of my areas, with the service industries and others still trying to come back. we need to recognize the fact that we have encourage the economic activity at the same time being safe in this because our, extra federal unemployment caused worker shortages in our businesses here in florida and georgia, across the country. we need to phasing back that. do away with it all together. we need to make sure monies we sent, jason and others who have known this in congress. we send out money or restrictions where we can't use it. my question will we allow states to redirect it, help the economies, help the government react to the covid crisis. we can't keep putting money toward this the long term there has to be a way out of here to protect our economic interests and our small businesses and others and move forward with the health and safety, get schools reopening and governments going again. my hope that will happen. we need liability protection for businesss who are opening, looking forward. even, those are the kind of things that we need to talk about. i'm hoping more of a conversation, just here it is, take it or leave it. jedediah: congressman, shifting gears a little bit to the very sad recent news of the passing of congressman john lewis. we like to give you a chance to honor and remember your colleague. >> well he is just amazing man here from georgia. i share a special memory. in 1987 i was an intern in washington, d.c., every morning i would get on the elevator, cannon office building, congressman lewis would share. we would share both being from georgia . a few years ago when i came to the house, i went to him, he and i talked i said, john, i said remember when we were riding elevators up there, he got the grin he always had about him. that special sweet spirit. he looked at me, doug, don't make me feel old, i'm not that old. he chuckled. we shared a commonality for love of people and being pastors in our own right. the country is mourning the loss of a hero. we may not always agree politically, but when it came to the decency of human beings, john lewis was unmatched in his parallel to make sure everybody felt included and valued in the eyes of go ahead abuse he is a man who had the same compassion for people. jason: congressman, like you, honor and privilege to serve with congressman lewis. when you meet with him, talk with him, one at a time, he was a sweet gentle soul. but when he spoke he had a powerful message, a true icon that i think we'll both cherish having spent time with him. thank you for joining us this morning. >> thank you. have a good day. jedediah: we'll turn to some headlines for you now. a police chief is hurt while taking down a stabbing suspect inside after virginia church. police say fairfax county chief ed ross letter was in a bible study a man walked in stabbing the pastor leading the class. he and another person disarmed the suspect. both were hurt in the scuffle. they are expected to be okay. the suspect is in custody. the motive currently remains unclear. the fda green lights covid-19 pool testing for the first time. the technique allows up to four samples to be tested in the same batch. if the test comes back negative, then all four are negative, but if it comes back positive, each sample is tested again separately. the fda says it's a way to get more results but using less resources. quest diagnostics, is the first lab to approve running the new testing. nypd lieutenant violently attacked with a cain on the brooklyn bridge is released prothe hospital.

[shouting] jason: we've been telling you about chicago, ravaged by a surge of violence. protesters attacking police on friday with bottles, rocks and fireworks. since friday, 40 people reportedly shot. at least five killed and police are saying enough is enough. in a letter to president trump the police union chief writes, these politicians are failing the good men and women of this city and the police department. i have pushed back on their failing liberal policies. i really believe you're help and cooperation could make a big difference and rally the silent majority to say enough is enough. our next guest grew up in chicago. here to weigh in, fox news political analyst, author of, taken for granted, gianno caldwell. >> thank you for having me. jason: i know you care passionately about this issue. unfortunately in chicago the violence has been there really for years. but it seems to be getting worse and worse. >> i've been marching against the violent since i was 14, got shot with a "chicago defender" newspaper and former mayor richard daley and the superintendent of police among others. every year when we have this discussion, usually around the summer and springtime, even in the wintertimes it, breaks my heart especially considering the fact my family has been impacted. a quick look at the numbers. now the number you that you mentioned, 49, 40, there is updated number, 49 people shot in chicago over the weekend. talking about the total over the year, well over 1900, 600 more than last year. last weekend, 64 shot, 13 fatally. weekend before, 4th of july weekend, 80 people shot, 15 killed. people continue to ask when will this end? when the heck will this end? and at this point, we've seen decades ever failure. richard daley, rahm emanuel. now lori lightfoot who is more petty than any of these other men, who is willing to call the press secretary a karen just to get social media violent post, she should be worried about the black and brown bodies that continue to drop in the city of chicago. people are literally dying in the streets. you have a mayor more focused on politics of the day, than the citizens she took a sworn oath to protect this is disgusting and discouraging. president trump has very unique opportunity, when law and order should be central focus on everyone's mind in the large cities. talk about, there has been more police shot this year and killed in the line of duty than there were last year, including seven who were ambushed across this country this, is the time for president trump to take a foot in the sand and make a decision, we have to stop the violence in the city and the mayors of these major cities have completely failed this time for the federal government to step in. jason: now the mayor gave some lip service, hey, it is unacceptable to do this, one part she is, just, i think, she comes up with some things but tends to blame donald trump and the president? i got to tell you though, it is sad for the people of chicago. gianno, i want to highlight, you will join harris faulkner tonight in her prime time special, the fight for america. a conversation on race in america tonight at 10:00. tell us about the message you want to share, just briefly. we only have a few seconds. we want to -- when you're on with harris tonight. >> absolutely. i talked about this on instagram and twitter often @gianno caldwell if you want to join the conversation. this is one of the most important conversations that can take place on this network. at this time we as a country are decided who do we want to be. who do we want to stand with?

what happened in the hearings do you believe that could lead to possibly a response to the governor? >> well, there was an hour 1/2 oral argument before the judge and the judge was considering our arguments that the governor under our constitution has to work with the legislative branch, work with the agencies, even work with the judges in these kind of situations and yeah, the governor acted like a drunk monarch, not following any of the rules. rather than working with the legislature, the agencies and the judges he is doing his own thing. he issued 75 executive orders. he issuing them like tissue. just, ridiculous. we can't even keep up with him. he refuses to work with anyone else. it's a lack of leadership. griff: do you think the governor understands exactly what you do? what are your businesses that you have? >> i'm a restaurant called haven gardens and a dance studio, southwest club dance and gym has tick center. he not only shut down one business but shut down all three of my businesses that we couldn't make a income or anything. griff: have you had any communication with the governor prior to this lawsuit? if you did have communication what did you say? >> no. i had no communication with governor waltz before this. griff: we reached out to governor walz for a statement. hold on eric, show you what the governor said. the virus forced the state to take dressic action to keep minnesotans safe but action within the governor's authority. it is in line with federal guidance and similar to what other states are doing. eric? >> yeah the minnesota constitution is different, governor. governor waltz, you have to work with the legislature. you have to work with the agencies and you have to work with the judges. you can't do it all on your own. to ignore these legal limitations you're acting like a monarch. it is not good. you have got to stop now. what is at risk in minnesota our tradition of everyone participating. she has some good ideas, governor, on how to have these regulations work better but you're not listening. you're not listening to anyone. you're not listening to the public, the legislature. you're not listening to your agencies. you're not listening to the judges. you can't just be you, governor, making all the decisions. griff: just in the time we've got left, what are those ideas? >> just how to reopen safely. so everyone thrive as a small business owner. i mean, we don't like being smushed down, not knowing what to do, what is going to happen next. you open up. all of sudden, what, we have to be shut back down? so, no, we look at the usa gymnastics put a plan together for all the gyms on what to do. we all work together. the small restaurants they did the same thing. so right now the governor just needs to listen to the federations that are for the small businesses and for the businesses out there. griff: is that how you would safely reopen? just seconds to go, what would be the number one thing to reopen safely you think that would do? what would you employ? >> the biggest thing is cleaning. how do we sanitize safely. get everything so we don't have to worry about covid or any kind of infection truthfully. griff: thanks for joining us. we'll continue to follow the case. appreciate your time. >> thank you. >> thank you. griff: coming up 107 days to go until the presidential election. a new op-ed argues that joe biden won't be the worst part of a biden presidency. you heard that right. mike huckabee knows what it is like to run for president. he is on deck. now, simparica trio simplifies protection. ticks and fleas?

where does that line get drawn between local control and federal involvement when crisis likes this strikes and local leadership seems not to be doing its job? >> well the local government certainly has power over their local community and they don't have power over federal buildings. the federal government has not just the right but they have the responsibility to protect the property that belongs not to the people of oregon but to the people of america. you and i have a interest what is happening on federal property. frankly i want my property protected. i don't want these goons burning stuff down and breaking windows. guess what, we have to pay for it to get replaced. federal government has every right, they have the responsibility to protect that property, to keep some semblance of the civil rights of all of american citizens in place. if the local officials weren't do it, then the federal government has to do it. there are many historical examples of that. one of which is a pretty big one, from my home state of arkansas way back in 1957 when then president eisenhower said, hey, if the state is not going to follow the absolute law to integrate the schools, then we'll do it from the federal level. and the 101st airborne came in to make sure it happened. griff: raised a good point. $23 million of damage alone growing there, in portland downtown businesses. the somebody has to pay for that. the mayor, we played a sound bite wheeler, saying this is attack on democracy itself. what do you say, to oregon governor kate brown essentially saying that the reason for the violence in the streets is because of trump and federal response? >> well, that is lunacy. it is just plain lunacy for her to say something like that. i don't know where people get the ideas that their states are better off, their citizens are happy with the idea of anarchy and mobs controlling. elected officials are elected to keep peace, to create a sense of social order, and, they are not there to see that they can applaud and say dumb things like the mayor of seattle calling riots there a summer of love. there is nothing loving with about this. people get hurt. businesses get burned. everybody pays for a burned up business. because that means the costs of doing business goes up. the cost of inventory, the cost of insurance. the cost of policing. all of that is passed on to the person who is going out to actually buying their bread, not shoplifting it like aoc seemed to indicate. i would remind people again, if they were just out shoplifting a loaf of bread, why didn't they loot bread stores instead of gucci and places like tiffany's? jason: good point. governor, we want to get your reaction to an op-ed from "the boston herald." it says, scary thought, the biden won't be the worst part of the biden presidency. "the boston herald" wrote, biden is stepping aside, letting liberal radicals have their way with his platform. we're only in july. between the far left radicals, the lifelong swamp creatures and the biden family, there will be no shortage of ambition in the white house. if america votes the former vice president into 1600 pennsylvania avenue, joe biden will undoubtedly be the least of our worries. your comments? >> jason, you probably know better than anybody because you were in congress during the most of the time of the obama presidency. so you saw the cast of characters that will actually be running the country. it is not joe biden. joe biden can't read his teleprompter without some assistance, can't run an iphone. so he is going to turn this over to the same people that ran america during, you know, the obama years, except quite frankly they're going to be emboldened because they won't have the backstop after president who will say wait a minute, i'm not sure that will be a great idea. he will enjoy waving at people, sniffing hair, doing things he loves to do, but there will be other people in charge, increasingly these are radical leftists who will change our economy, not for the good. who will surrender to china, not for the good, open our borders, allow mobs to control, raise taxes, increase government regulations which destroys the economy. i'm not sure if a lot of americans stop to think about that. do they really, really want to go there?

>> he will with you know, jedediah, i'm stuck in a dichotomy. i'm also a physician and also a mother. i can tell you we know in-person training and education for our children is what is best. online learning can lead to social isolation and lead to lack of communication skills. decades of pre-covid research so we know. that i'm aways as physician i'm aware of infectious children asymptom i cannily spreading that. the good news, if you follow the data, research, iceland, south korea, italy, many other places they are telling us in their data that children are far less likely to be infected with this virus. and further data tells us, if they become infected, they are less likely to transsubmit the virus. unlike most other respiratory viruses like the common cold, the flu, children do not seem to be super spreaders with covid-19. that being said, you know, we do not have large prevalence data here in the united states yet. the nih is already underway with a massive trial to look at the infectivity and transmissibility of children. unfortunately that data will not be out until the fall. however i will say, that i do believe it is crucial to get our children back to school. now what governor newsom is saying about getting kids back to school, he is saying they cannot go back to in-person school as long as there are increasing cases in the counties. unfortunately that might be the reality. when you look at trials across the world, it says, successful school opening in areas where the there is decreasing infections. so it is on us, jedediah, as the adults, as the parents, as the community to do what we can to lessen the spread of this virus so our children can get back to school because that is crucial. jedediah: nicole, one of the frustrations of a lot of moms that talk to me, they're frustrated for schools not thinking outside of the box. we had a mom say this on a mom panel, why is it about six feet of distance and masks? can't they put the kids outside? can't they do something? are you facing that as a mom. are you frustrated about inability to think outside of the box because of a pandemic when it comes to kids and school? >> absolutely. we failed our children. we shut down the schools way too early. we did not have a plan for reopening schools, educators, administrators, need to do what they can. i understand they're nervous to get back to school. they're nervous about being infected. they are essential front line worker. they are tasked of caring our children an insuring their well being. time for them to act like the front line workers to do what they clan to get our kids back into school. jedediah: dr. nicole saphier, one of my favorite doctors, one of my favorite moms, thanks for being here as always. >> thank you, jed. jedediah: still ahead, more time at home means more time for home improvement. oh, yeah. we've got three easy projects you can do right now. whether or not i will be able to do them i'm not sure. that is coming up next. maybe they can teach me a lot of healthy foods are very acidic and aren't necessarily great for your teeth. the acid can actually wear away at the enamel which over time can cause sensitivity and a lot of people start to see their teeth turn yellow. i like to recommend pronamel to my patients to help them protect their teeth and keep the enamel strong. ♪. jason: more time at home means more time for home improvements with many of us feeling the urge to take on do it yourself projects. griff: here with three easy projects you can tackle right now, home improvement ex-shorts, shane duffy and sandy diaz. we're getting their signal correct. which means, there we are. shane, sandy, what have we got for us? fill disclosure, i don't know about jason and jed but i'm terrible at these things. make it easy for us. >> that is why we're here. the great way to organize, is with huffy. walk into home depot, the best part about it they're stackable. throw them up, they're all in there. go on to the shelves, stackable units there, for the tools, any kind of fastener. the other thing i love, paying for it. with this what happens it, you have everything right up here, easily visual. like my dad said, take something put it back. organization is key. one thing i love is this ryobi drill. this lasts about 50% longer. we built the entire set with it. >> we'll bring it into the home because overall air quality and quality of life impacts you by what you live in. now, more than ever we're spending more than 90 percent of our time indoors. so darwin, which created the world's first home wellness intelligence network came up with a system that focusing on three major components. one, air filtration. this is stand alone air filtration system. it gets out toxins, pollens, allergens. the second is the water filtration system. what you put in your body is paramount. everybody exercises but you have to have healthy water and water you cook with. around the third is your sleep. this is led lights and plug-and-play. this ties into your circadian rhythm. it has three simulations. dawn simulation in the morning. the second in the afternoon, when you need energy, invigorating light and third, when you want to go to bet, rest and relax. dims the light. >> all right. third thing say you're done inside the house, you want to go outside to the deck to have a great time. what better way to enjoy the beautiful weather than to spend it on your deck. the important thing you have to take care of it, show the deck love and love it back. you don't want to be walking on a deck with splinters. so the best thing is, you walk into local home depot they have the bear products. this deck product, amazing. you put it on, looks like paint but lasts for 10 years. griff: wow. >> this is amazing. up to a quarter inch. griff: all right. >> a grain of wood -- griff: i hate to cut you off there. keep painting the deck. fixing that deck. we appreciate it. good tips indeed. coming up though, kanye west will reportedly hold his first presidential campaign event in south carolina. so what can we expect? details coming up. ... ♪ griff: god sunday morning, and welcome to the eight o'clock hour of fox & friends weekend, bringing you a little fresh air to get your sunday kicked off. i'm joined by jed in new york and jason in utah. good morning to you guys. it's a busy sunday morning, and, unfortunately, we are talking again about violence and unrest in our cities, from chicago to portland to places in between and beyond. it's really, jed, and jason, we just keep talking about this over and over because it just doesn't go away. jedediah: we've seen issues -- jason: there seems to be a conscious -- jedediah: -- in chicago -- yeah. and it's gotten -- sorry, jason -- it's gotten so bad where we've seen the reporting from lawrence jones where children have been affected. we saw the loss of a small boy in new york city. besaw a 5 month old grazed in chicago. it's so bad in chicago that john katenzara, the president of the chicago's police union has written a letter to president trump saying the following: these politicians are failing the good men and women of this city and the police department. i have pushed back on their failing liberal policies. i really believe your help and cooperation could make a big difference and rally the silent majority to say enough is enough enough. jason? jason: well, it's a police union chief there is a big supporter of donald trump, but when you see the violence day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year, you have a mayor who's pretty much in denial. she won't even admit it. she talks about things that really don't get to the heart of you know, 40-plus people that have been shot, 1900 so far this year. i mean, those numbers are absolutely stunning. and we talked earlier on fox & friends with gianno caldwell who actually grew up and lived in chicago. listen to what he had to say about this. >> you've got people literally dying in the streets. and you have a mayor who is the more focused on the politics of the day than the citizens that she took a sworn oath to protect protect. this is disgusting and it's discouraging. now, president trump has a very unique opportunity when law and order should be the central focus on everyone's mind in these large cities, this is the time for president trump to take a foot in the sand and make a decision. we have to stop the violence in the city, and the mayors of these major cities have completely failed. it's time for the federal government to step in. griff: and gianno's exactly correct. that's why katanzara, the union president was calling for the president to get involved and it's why you say so many police chiefs and commissioners across the country saying, "look. we are headed to a very bad place unless we turn this around around." and of course the president certainly wanting to get involved into this, weighing into the situation. we're going to turn now to a fox news alert. a police union building set on fire during violence. [indistinct voices] griff: you see there that fire was quickly extinguished. this is the 52nd straight night night-of-protests and unrest in the city, jed. jedediah: the violence coming hours after oregon's attorney general sues the feds demanding federal officers to stop arresting reuters. the situation here, you see these images, the video that's unfolding, it looks terrifying. can you imagine if you lived nearby these zones where you have local political officials -- mayors, governors -- doing absolutely nothing to remedying the situation. you perhaps own a business there there; you perhaps own a home there, have a family there. it's terrifying. so it's really easy, mayors in these cities -- and we're talking, you know, mayors in portland, places like seattle -- if you don't want the feds involved, then do your job. your job is to protect that city city. your job is to protect the people of that city, not to allow peaceful protests to turn violent and cause mass destruction in your city. and if you don't do your job, the federal government then has an obligation for the people of this country to step in. so if you don't want them there, it's really simple: do what you were elected to do. jason: in oregon they have a democratic governor, democratic attorney general, democrat mayor mayor. they look at these pictures, they tell the world, "hey, this is fine. just let's keep this going." they do not seem to have the resources or nor do they deploy those resources. instead, they blame donald trump as if it was his fault that these people -- these are not protesters. these are rioters. these are people that want to have violence in their city. and that's what they're choosing to do. and the elected leaders are allowing them to do it. earlier we had doug collins on, congressman, important member of the judiciary committee there in the house. he weighed in, and here's what he said about this topic. >> riots and peaceful protests are two different things. when you're destroying $23 million worth of property, when you're burning buildings, when you have absolute chaos in your street, he doesn't understand the very basics of government. and government is there to keep and have in place a civil order so that people can feel safe in their communities. this is just disgraceful that a mayor would believe that anarchy is the way it's looking right now, is actual normal. and to attack the president for your own failures. mayor, look around your city. it is burning because you are the mayor. you need to take responsibility. griff: yeah, mayor wheeler saying this is just an attack on democracy what the president's trying to do. and i thought jason your question to congressman collins is fantastic. so what is the congressional committees or anyone trying to do in congress to address this problem in our streets? and he said there are no plans to do so. however, you will see this week in congress another story that we have been following, and that is the coronavirus reaching a milestone worldwide, breaking records, this as the united states faces a growing number of confirmed cases. martin meredith joins us live as congress gets back to work with covid-19 on the agenda. hey, mark, good morning. >> griff, good morning to you. it's no secret the coronavirus continues to corrupt life for so many of us. and now we're getting the data, gives us an idea of where things stand. the latest health data shows worldwide the number of people killed by the coronavirus roughly at 600,000. in the u.s. that number close to 140,000 people. arizona, for instance, hit a record daily death tolerate with 147 deaths yesterday. north carolina and missouri, they're setting records too. governors in several states say they are dealing with a number of health challenges. >> we are in the middle of a spike. we're not seeing the kind of increases that we're seeing in other states, but our hospital hospitalization is up significantly. >> this week lawmakers mace a number of tough decisions about how to move the country forward including what the next economic stimulus package should and should not include. >> a next phased release should extend the ppp but on a march targeted basis for smaller companies and those that are especially hard hit, such as restaurants, hotels, and other travel and hospitality business. >> you could also expect this week a major focus on if and when schools can reopen. house democrats say, though, they are outraged that the white house refused to allow the cdc director to testify up on capitol hill this week about the state of the pandemic. a white house official told fox news that the reason that they did not send the cdc director up to the hill this week is that he's testified so much recently and they felt he needed to be better focused on responding to the pandemic. but griff, jed, and jason you can bet a lot of people will be curious to see what congress has to do, potentially do a little bit later on this week. back to you guys. jedediah: thanks so much, mark. we appreciate it. obviously numerous challenges have emerged, particularly in areas where covid-19 has spiked, where hospitalizations have spiked. some of those challenges involve small businesses and when they can get back to full operation. and another challenge has involved schools and when to reopen and how to reopen. that has become a big debate. it will be a big 2020 election issue that president trump and, you know, joe biden will have to face off on. both going to come up with very different plans. we talked to dr. nicole saphier, fox news medical contributor and importantly also a mom about this very issue of reopening schools last hour. check out what she had to say. >> children are far less likely to be infected with this virus. and further data tells us if they become infected, they are less likely to transmit the virus. i mean, unlike most other respiratory viruses like the common cold, like the flu, children do not seem to be super spreaders with covid-19. we have failed our children. we shut down their schools way too early, and we did not have a plan for reopening. schools, educators, administrators, need to do what they can. i understand that they're nervous to get back to school, they're nervous about being infected but they're an essential front line wor.er griff: yeah. you know, it's interesting, jed and jason, because senate majority leader mcconnell said the priorities of what's being unveiled this week about kids going back to school safely, businesses and health care, but because they did not involve the democrats in discussions it looks like they're far apart and far from any sort of deal being met. we'll have to wait and find out. we're turning now to hour headlines. flags flying half-staff in washington to honor john lewis. the icon served as a georgia representative for 33 years in atlanta, a memorial is growing mural honoring him. lewis died friday night after battling pancreatic cancer. he was 80 years old. congressman doug collins joined us earlier to remember his fellow georgian. >> the country is mourning the loss of a hero here, someone who stood for and went forward on his ideas. we may not have always agreed politically but when it came to the decency of human beings, john lewis was unmatched in his parallel to make sure that everybody felt included and felt valued in the eyes of god. griff: funeral plans for lewis haven't yet been announced but no doubt it will be a large one. an n.y.p.d. officer is hurt while trying to stop two women from vandalizing a black lives matter mural outside trump tower tower. police say the women poured black paint on the mural causing the officer to slip and fall, hurting his head and arm. he's hospitalized in stable condition. officers arrested the women. the mural has been vandalized three times in less than one week. and commerce secretary wilbur ross is hospitalized in new york. a department spokesperson telling fox news secretary ross has been admitted into the hospital for minor, non- non-coronavirus issues, and they anticipate he'll be released soon. the 82-year-old was hospitalized on friday evening. american astronauts on a misconduct space mission are set to come home in a couple of weeks weeks. bob binkin and doug hurley are on a joint mission with spacex. they will return in after more than two months at the international space station. he tweeted in part, splash down is set for uttering 2nd but it will ultimately depend on weather. the mission brought human space flight back to the u.s. after nearly a decade. and those are your headlines. jed? jedediah: still ahead former vp joe biden may be leading president trump in the polls, but are they a reliable measure of what to expect come november? we're going to ask president trump's 2020 press secretary hogan gidley coming up next. it's a reason to come together. it's a taste of something good. a taste we all could use right now. so let's make the most of it. and make every sandwich count. with oscar mayer deli fresh ♪ jason: a recent poll claims voters think secret trump voters could be the difference in key battleground states. the director of that polling institute adding, "the media constantly reports that biden is in the lead, but voters remember what happened in 2016. the specter of a secret trump vote looms large in 2020." so what does the trump campaign think? let's ask trump 2020 campaign national press secretary hogan gidley. hogan, thank you so much for joining us. you know, when campaigns are behind, they always say "we don't believe the polls. those aren't true. and we got more supporters than ever." so what say you? >> first things first. i do want to join with those across the country mourning the loss of civil rights icon john lewis. our prayers are with his family today. that being said you hit the nail on the head as far as campaigns. we often like to point to polls and say they're bogus, but in this instance they're absolutely bogus. the facts just bear that out. the methodology is completely wrong. they're undersampling republicans compared to the way they voted in 2016 and 2018, for that matter, in the midterms. they're oversampling democrats so they're asking a whole lot of more of those on the political left their opinions on this president as opposed to those on the right. as you know he has historic support inside the g.o.p. with 96%. no one's ever seen any numbers like that in my political lifetime for sure. and so what's interesting, though, is the people on the panels, the pundits, the ones who actually monitor these polls they know that these polls are weighted toward democrats. so either they're completely gullible or they'rely absolutely doing this on purpose. either way, it's not good. jason: but there was also a campaign shakeup. remember there was a change in leadership there at the trump campaign. i know in tulsa didn't go necessarily the way the president wanted it to go. how does the president get his footing in a covid-related situation where he just can't pack the house with 50,000 people night after night? >> yeah, but he's packing the house in other ways. rallies aren't the only thing whether they be inside of an arena or inside of an airport. let's be clear. 1.1 billion views across that plomb -- we just crossed that milestone -- people are excited about this president. they're enthusiastic about actually voting. you see the spread right now and so many on the right registering at rates higher than those on the left. people want to get out and vote, secret or not, because they understand this president has improved their lives at every turn. and let's be clear. campaigns are about choices. and when you have someone like donald trump who stands up for this country, delivers unifying, patriotic messages on a daily basis, and someone like joe biden, who, for eight years, ruined this economy. in the recent weeks when we've seen all this death and destruction across our country has said little or nothing except for defund the police. and i have to say to watch the media try and cover for joe biden in this instance, they say he didn't say defund the police. okay, right. he used the word "redirect." let's be clear, jason. you and i talking right now, i'm not going to defund your bank account. i'm just going to redirect more money out of it into my bank account. the fact is it's a cut, it's a defunding mechanism regardless. he can try and spin it however he wants, and the press can try to cover for him as they have been doing now for the better part of 50 years, but the facts remain -- the american people understand our city streets are devolving into lawlessness. this president is the only one standing up for them trying to protect their lives, their families, and our neighborhoods are less safe with joe biden and with democrats in control. jason: hogan gidley, thank you for joining us this morning. we do appreciate it. >> thanks so much. jason: all right. coming up next, a police union building set ablaze as portland is rocked by another night of riots. it's a scene our

between portland and seattle where protesters eventually set up a police free zone. our next guest says the scene is all too predictable. here to explain is seattle resident and fox news contributor emily compagno. emily, welcome to the show. great to have you here, as always. first and foremost i'd love to get your reaction to what we see unfortunately, going on in portland right now. >> good morning, jed. thanks for having me. you're absolutely right that it's predictable. and to me that's what makes it all the more tragic. because it makes it preventable. this is the psalm town, portland that saw its i.c.e. building occupied for five weeks and a hazmat team had to come and clean up afterwards because of the excrement and the syringes. as you among ussed in your intro i'm sitting here in seattle where the residents here feel nothing but bewilderment and confusion. but, unfortunately, they also understand that it's par for the course. these incompetent local leaders who refuse to listen to residents, who capitulate to this tiny screaming minority, they're the ones that have to answer for the rest of us. jedediah: you know, emily, mayor ted wheeler in portland is coming out saying we don't want the feds here, we don't want any federal presence. that's only going to make it worse. i don't understand what they expect to happen if local political officials -- mayors, governors -- are not going to do their job. is there any choice but to bring federal authorities in? >> that's exactly right. they keep saying there's a failure on the national level. we see it as a failure on the local level. residents do not feel safe, and they do not feel the same way as for example, here in seattle the city council which voted overwhelming to defund the police by over 50%. we want law enforcement in our community. we see the need for it. again, this tiny minority is essentially running the streets. and i have to say, too, that i was in portland one and saw -- honestly i can't even remember which riot it was, but i saw -- it was this tiny group. and they were so destructive. and i saw the amount of the police at that time, they were all in their riot gear, and it was like a movie in seeing the tiny amount of people that were causing such destruction and ruckus and have such a residual impact. corporations are fleeing that town because the lack of business incentives is so huge. all the pull factors for the homeless is also taking over the city and again the local leaders then, all they do is decry the national leadership while failing to see what's going on in their own backyard. and keep in mind, too, that the second the elf portland it's a whole different story. it's just right there in the town that it's rotting just like here in seat.le jedediah: of me -- emily you've been supportive of law enforcement in your own city seattle, and you've delivered dinner to them. tell us a little bit about that and tell us what you made. >> thank you for bringing that up, jed. so during covid times i have been teaming local restaurants to show support for -- teaming up with local restaurants to show support for local law enforcement, and seeing how they had to abandon their east precinct we again teamed up with local restaurants and deliver dinner. all i did was make cookies but the actual dinner came from restaurants. it was heartbreaking to see the low morale of the seattle police department, to know that the mayor has ham stringed them in enforcing the law, in defending themselves, and that it was only when her home was threatened did she call it riotous action and incitement. as the police officers shared with me the east precinct was their home and yet they had to abandon it and what was so heartbreaking to me, too, was that as these guys are mourning the loss of one of their own, officer jonathan chupe they questioned whether the community wanted them, they questioned whether the community wanted them there so this tiny gesture on my part and on the part of local restaurants had a big impact on them. it said we do support you, we want you, and we need you here in our communities because you are part of our communities. jedediah: yeah. a very important gesture at a time when we see so much anti- anti-police sentiment popping up around the country. so thank you for that. it's an important message to have out there. i know many others are doing the same and see this as an example and also i will be placing my order for cookies coming up, emily. thanks so much for being here. >> they're really good. jedediah: appreciate it. thanks so much. coming up, tributes pouring in for congressman john lewis with his memorial growing overnight. up next, dr. alveda king joins us with her sunday message as we remember him. ♪ griff: tributes pouring in for congressman and civil rights icon john lewis. leaders on both sides of the aisle praising lewis for his decades of service and fight for justice.

edmund pettus bridge after lewis in selma, alabama. lewis was seriously hurt on that bridge 55 years ago during a civil rights march. alabama state troopers attacked protesters on what's now known as bloody sunday. we are now going to bring in alveda king, fox news contributor and niece of dr. martin luther king on this sunday. alveda, welcome to the show as always. as we remember john lewis, we would love to hear your sunday message today. >> interestingly enough -- and good morning, everyone. let me say that first -- the first song that came to my mind today was not a church song. today is sunday and we worship the lord in spirit in truth hopefully all week, not just on sunday. however, there was a song called "for the good times." and the singer was having a hard time in a relationship at the time that the singer began to sing about "for the good times." so that was amazing. i'm thinking, when i think about john lewis, right in the midst of covid-19, race wars, and so much dissension, another warrior died on the same day that congressman lewis died, c. d. vivian. he'll be less remembered, but he did some noble work cell. when i think about selma bridge, the edmund pettus bridge -- and if they rename it to congress john lewis, that's a discussion as well. john was hurt on that bridge, and yet he kept his tenacity, his faithfulness, his loyalty, his desire to serve people, and that is the john lewis that i remember. always a forgiving kind of person, and i think that because he was able to keep his focus for so many years serving in the united states congress for three decades, we will remember john in that manner. griff: alveda, let me ask you, you mentioned about the renaming of the edmund pettus bridge. for those of you who don't know he was a segregationist. in this environment today it would be perhaps a quickly re renamed bridge but because of lewis' sacrifice and the significance of his actions there, do you believe that it should be renamed after lewis, or should, for the historical significance, remain the edmund pettus bridge? >> that's a difficult question for me. for example, my dad, reverend alfred daniel williams king, who was killed in 1969 kind of like the kennedy brothers, my uncle martin was killed in 'and leave my dad was killed in '69, he was on that bridge that day and he was beaten as well, hosea williams, james orange, many were. and so the same thing, if you look at congressman lewis, a giant all of person, with such a heart for serving and so c. t. vivian died the same day; so do you name that john lewis day or c. t. vivian day or whatever. so we remember to give tribute to human beings, it's important to do that, giving honor where honor is due. however, with all of the re renaming of streets and bridges and tearing down statues and all of that, i'm reminded, my uncle martin luther king jr. said the day should come when there won't be black power or white power, only god power and human power. human power comes from the soul. that is covered by the love of god. i know i gave you a roundabout answer, but i just don't know because we must remember congressman john lewis, a very genuine person who did his best to support what he believed. now, he was with social justice, social the gospel, the gospel of jesus christ needs a christian evangelist, that's a little different, one blood, one race, one humorous, i believe that, and racism and socialism. however if we think about covering all of this in prayer, we have to remember. i'm remembering congressman john lewis, his nobility, his courage his consistency, a very genuine consistency to want to love, to forgive. he was a peacemaker. and to me he was a warrior for peace. jason: alveda, real quickly, just, what's the one thing that you will remember john lewis about? what's the one thing you want the kids of this country, when they say john lewis, you want them to remember what? >> i remember john lewis the peacemaker. and anytime anybody wanted to bring him into controversy, i would always say, "that's not the john lewis i know." and so the john lewis i remember a peacemaker, a very consistent servant, a very humble man. jason: thank you. jedediah: thank you, alveda, for joining us as always and we can't wait to talk to you again. appreciate it so much. >> thank you. jedediah: we're going to turn so some headlines for you now because a manhunt is underway after three friends were found murdered while on a fishing trip trip. police in polk county, florida, were called by the father of one of the victims. he rushed to the scene after his son called him begging for help. he found his son barely alive and the other two men dead. >> all three of them are dead. they're murdered. worse than that, they're massacred. i've been to a lot of murder scenes in my life. and this ranks among the worst i've been to. jedediah: as of now the police do not know if the killers knew the victims. and michael avenatti is broke multiply his lawyer is now asking taxpayers to help with his legal fees. court documents reveal avenatti ran out of money as he awaits two trials on embezzlement and tax evasion. avenatti was found guilty earlier this year of extorting millions from nike. he is scheduled to be sentenced in that case next month. and a man is demanding answers after fedex delivers his gun to the wrong address. he asked to hide his identity to keep his family safe. >> the package that went somewhere else has my name and address on it and i just fear for my community, my kids, and, you know, just don't want any harm to come to anyone. jedediah: he was waiting to receive the gun at his colorado home after getting it repaired. he says fedex told him it was delivered to another town. fedex says an investigation is currently underway. and talk about a roller coaster journey, a man is motivated to lose nearly 200 pounds so that he could fit on a new roller coaster ride in ohio. >> to me, that's my happy place, is riding roller coasters. the first drop is the main thing thing. the day that they announced orion was the day in which i said to myself, i will lose this weight. i went and i bought a scale. i weighed myself that day, and i was 430 pounds. jedediah: ten months and 190 pounds later, he has now been on the ride five times. and those are your headlines. griff: that man is my hero. jedediah: yeah, i'm a big roller coaster girl; so, you know what? the coaster can be a motivator. that's all i'm going to .ay griff: absolutely. my happy place indeed. i agree with them on a roller coaster. adam closs, though, do you like roller coasters, is that your happy place or not? >> of course i like roller coasters. the problem is it's like 90 seconds of fun and you stand in line for an hour and a half. you guys put up with that? griff: true. oh, yeah. >> okay. so now that i'm a buzz kill, i'll just dive right into the forecast. we're talking about extreme heat again settling in across the country, probably the hottest weekend we've seen the entire summer. temperatures already in the opener seventies, lower eighties eighties. we've got heat warnings, advisories from the plains, tulsa, up to chicago, detroit, cleveland, all areas we'll see extreme heat and then the mid- mid-atlantic stretching up into new england, heat advisories, heat warnings, the actual temperatures running up into the nineties, 90 to 95 but you add in that humidity and when you step outside it can be really impressive, the air you can wear well, it feels even hotter than that. the feels-like temperatures up to the triple digits, 100 to 105 degrees. definitely going to need a way to stay cool here on this sunday sunday. back to .ou griff: great point, adam, that humidity is no joke. went for a run yesterday, and people need to take that into consideration, maybe take take that easier, make sure you stay hydrated. it's really hot on the east coast. adam closs, thanks. still

announcing a major developments in the war against ms-13. >> we've just concluded a historic operation leading to the arrest and indictment of dozens of savage ms-13 members and leaders all across the country. this week's actions by the joint task force vulcan is the most recent offense to -- really this has been a big offensive in my administration's war on foreign gangs. griff: our next gang was the agent tasked with taking down some of the most dangerous medication of the violent gang. los angeles special agent in charge francisco barolla. agent barolla, thank you for taking the time and well done to members of h.s.i. and other members of your agency to take this down. tell us what you did. >> good morning. thank you for having me on your show today. i'm very proud of my agents, specifically those h.s.i. agents from las vegas and the metropolitan police, and bureau of alcohol, tobacco & firearms agents. we received a tip gang members of barolla were fleeing el salvador and coming to the united states seeking asylum. at the same time we heard there were a team of citizens sponsoring those individuals and thus being released in their hands. as we began peeling back the onion on this investigation we started to see that we were not only dealing with your average barolla foot soldier -- average ms-13 southwest foot soldier, we were dealing with top level leaders object shock collars for the ms-13 program in los angeles and also in las vegas. >> and special agent barolla let's show our viewers, you have now criminally charged 13 members of ms-13, and here is what you seized in the operation vulcan, five pounds of meth, in cash, 14 firearms, nine long guns, five handguns, and six suppressors. the threat that ms-13 poses not just to our cities but all across america, put that in context for us. >> yes. these 13 individuals that were criminally indicted, there was a total of 20 ms-13 gang members arrested. of those 20 that do not meet the criteria will be administratively removed from the united states. they're very violent. these individuals are alleged to have committed murders, extortion, weapons trafficking, drug trafficking. they also have

entering phase 4 of reopening tomorrow. but governor andrew cuomo is still delaying the return of indoor dining. this comes a day after he imposed new restrictions on bars and restaurants requiring food to be sold with alcohol over concern people are packing sidewalks for a drank and ignoring social distancing guidelines. so how will this impact the already hurt restaurant industries century? let's ask steven elkins, owner of the forest hills stationhouse stationhouse. steven, welcome to the show. so glad to have you here. when you hear these restrictions that keep coming in from andrew cuomo, what do you think? you're a business owner. you rely on the survival of your business for your income to feed your family. >> it's been extremely challenging, there's no doubt. the guidelines keep changing daily. it's been somewhat frustrating. you know, the whole three-strike rule, you know, they should just keep that with baseball, you know. we are doing the best we can to be compliant with all of our guests. we definitely have to be involved in a lot of plussing people, which is just an extra strain on us trying to operate the business. we have, you know, outdoor seating that needs to be set up, breaking down every single day. it takes a good hour of breakdown, hour of setup. it's hot out. and we have to sit there and monitor people. we have to explain the rules to every guest, whether it's a take takeout order or it's coming to dine with us. so people just want to come in and have a beer, and i think they should be allowed to. and, you know, the majority of our customers do want to eat and drink at the same time. but there's 20% of the business at least that want to just come and have a drink. and we are practicing social distancing. jedediah: yeah. >> we're doing everything we're supposed to be doing. it's just not really a sustainable business, you know? jedediah: the latest indication from cuomo is that -- >> i'm sorry. go ahead. jedediah: yeah. indication from governor cuomo is that indoor dining would not be able to be done safely. do you find that to be true or is he wrong? >> i think that we would be able to do it safely. i think that we have doors that stay wide open, as we follow the same setup that we have outside. we make sure everyone wears a mask when they come in, when they're seated at a table i don't have to, all my staff is practicing. practicing the correct sanitation practices to make sure that we keep everything clean and sanitized. it would be helpful to have the inside as well as the outside. like i said, my biggest concern as a business owner is, come september, october, november, especially, you know, they have given us 'til october, and they basically said that 'til october 31st i think we can keep this outdoor seating. but like i said, it's helpful. but it's really not the answer. jedediah: yeah. >> you can't turn over tables fast enough. you could only seat maybe, you know, 15 to 20 people. jedediah: yeah. >> it's -- jedediah: yeah, steven -- >> you're not really maximizing anything, and it's a little scary to see what the future brings up. jedediah: yep. don't want to interrupt you; we're running out of time. >> what's that? i'm sorry. jedediah: don't want to interrupt you. we're running out of time here. everyone should check out the forest hills stationhouse. great job, and we wish you the best of luck with your business. more fox & friends is coming up on the other side. ... >> ♪ bring me a higher love, it's a higher love ♪ >> griff: good sunday morning and welcome to our final hour of fox & friends weekend, kygo is tearing it up with whitney houston and they have run out with tina turn er and it is a great start and you'll see the shot there, of new york city, where jed is near new york, and jason chaffetz is joining us from utah good morning to you, jason, and jed. jed, you had been talking a lot about what's happening in our streets because we've got more unrest from portland to chicago and we have to bring that to you this sunday morning. jedediah: yeah, absolutely. we're also going to check in with pete hegseth in a little bit. i don't know if you guys remember him. i don't. i don't know who pete hegseth is but i'm just kidding we'll check in with him and his family whose on a road trip in an rv once he gets a better connection he'll check in with us but yes, griff as you mentioned we have been covering a lot of news this morning with going on in portland, portland seeing a very similar path as we have seen in seattle and talking a lot about the 2020 presidential election also, because there are some new polls out that we can report for you right now a new fox news poll just hit the waves, choice for president is voting today. let's take a look at what people had to say. joe biden now, 49% trump is at 41% but if you look back at those numbers in june, joe biden was at 50% and trump was at 38%, a little bit of a shift there that we see developing. so the question is what will happen. many will say that it's too early to look at polling. we remember that last time around, last presidential election, a lot of the polling was wrong, and a lot of big name anchors were very surprised by the results. i in fact myself was surprised by the results so you can't necessarily trust the polling and jason as we know, a lot is still developing right now. we're in the midst of a pandemic still lots of businesses have been shutdown and reopened you see a lot of violence emerging in the streets so lots of big issues for joe biden to come out and tackle and many different views as to how to tackle that coming from the president versus joe biden, so a lot remains to be seen in these next few months >> jason: well clearly the trump team will be happy to see that there's a 3% rise. you had the president's 4th of july mount rushmore event, but then you've also seen on the negative side, you've seen i think joe biden have some more gaps. you seen him take some radical positions as it relates to climate and climate change, embracing what bernie sanders says will be the most progressive agenda ever for a president. you combine that with the violence that we're seeing on the streets all across portland and chicago and new york and i think that wears on people for a long time. i think that backlash just, it eventually catches up to you, because middle america, regular america, they don't want to put up with this any longer. i think it's too much for them. >> griff: great point, jason in this fox news poll that just came out the embargo lifted minutes ago the backlash when people were asked about had the backlash against police gone too far? 51% said yes, which to your point, jason, is reflective in a lot of people looking at what would if biden, whose ahead in the polls, were to win in november, what "uncle joe's" america would look like as one op-ed writer in the boston harold writes grace curley whose the producer of the hower car show wrote biden won't be the worst part of a biden presidency and grace writes inside, biden is already stepping aside and letting the liberal radicals have their way with this platform and we're only in july, between the far left radicals, the life long swamp creatures and the biden family there will be no shortage of ambition in the white house if america votes, the former vice president into 1600 pennsylvania avenue joe biden will undoubtedly be the least of our worries and jed we've seen pretty unmistakable signs that from when joe biden got in the primaries early on, to what his policy agenda is going to look like from the green new deal influenced by aoc and others it's far- moving to the left and she has a point, i think, jed. jedediah: yeah, and joe biden has been in politics forever, so on a lot of these issues, what is he going to say? oh, it's time for a change, really? you've been in politics forever. you're talking now about criminal just us reform really when you were part of the group of the people writing bills that not only did nothing but worse than that, advocatedded against criminal justice reform in many respects so the question is what is he going to do and he needs these new powerful voices of the left, coming from the bernie sanders and the elizabeth warren and that's what holds the cloud and that's who many voters feel aligned with many democratic voters so he has no choice but to look out, what is he run on his own do-nothing brand and he's been sitting there for ever and none of these things have been accomplished. when we talked to mike huckabee last hour who warned about the far left policies under biden and who may actually be influencing him in terms of policy, listen to what mike had to say. >> he's going to turn this over to the same people that ran america during, you know, the obama years except quite frankly they're going to be en bolden because they won't have the back stop of a president who will say wait a minute i'm not sure that's a great idea. there will be other people in charge and increasingly these are radical leftist who will change our economy not for the good, who will surrender to china, not for the good, open our borders, allow mobs to control, raise taxes, increase government regulations, which destroys the economy, and i'm not sure if a lot of americans stop to think about that. do they really really want to go there? jedediah: yeah, you know, joe biden is just a figure head here it's not his ideas that are going to be pushing through and it would make sense if he were good at this. if joe biden were a great campaigner, out front and center doing a great job you'd say well they put him front and center because look how good it is at all of this. it doesn't matter what he really thinks he's going to hire people to do that stuff anyway but the thing is he's terrible at campaigning terrible at it so much so that he's not doing q & a, and probably praying there's not a debate so the whole strategy is really flawed because he's a bad campaigner and he has to solicit these ideas for everyone else because everyone knows he hasn't been in washington forever and hasn't gotten much accomplished right, jason, or maybe wrong, jason. >> jason: well i've never met a person who said oh, you know what? if only joe biden was president. i have never ever met that person. i just don't think they're out there. he got into elective politics when i was barely kicking a soccer ball in 1972, and now, he says he wants to transform the economy? are you kidding me? if you couldn't get it done in 48 years when do you think you're actually going to get it done? griff: and you know jason that's a good point over the course of 40 years people look back to when joe biden was more supportive of police and law enforcement perhaps more than he is now and we turn to a fox news alert. airplays union building was set on fire during violent clashes in portland overnight. we'll queue that up for you and show you, it's another night of destruction in portland. you can see it here in the streets. people just milling about there in portland, and that fire that was in a building and we're looking now just at the shots of the streets, the fire by the way was quickly extinguished but the point is this was the 52nd straight night of protests and unrest in the city, jed. jedediah: yeah, the violence is coming hours after oregon's attorney general sues the feds, demanding federal officers stop arresting rioters. president trump tweeting moments ago, we are trying to help portland not hurt it. their leadership has for months lost control of the anarchists and they are missing in action. we must protect federal property and our people. these were not merely protesters these are the real deal. jason? >> jason: well, again, you have a mayor whose out there saying there's nothing wrong. but you know, the reason that this is happening is because donald trump is protecting the federal building. it makes absolutely no sense. these are riots. they are trying to tear down the city. they are scaring people. i believe personally they're domestic terrorists and i think it's absolutely fundamentally wrong and the president should do something about it. griff: what's interesting is here in washington, the congressional leaders responding we have a statement from speaker pelosi and oregon's congressman who say this. "while portland is the president 's current target, any city could be next. we live in a democracy not a banana republic. we will not tolerate the use of oregonians or any other americans as props in president trump's political games. the house is committed to moving swiftly to curb these egregious abuses of power immediately. " she left it at that unclear exactly what she intends to do but certainly possibly missing the point, jed, that americans are not comfortable with lawlessness in their streets. jedediah: yeah, and look what she's saying this is a democracy as if it's just democratic, peaceful protests going on i mean she sees the images she sees the video of what's going on. she knows exactly what's going on. this isn't about democracy, this is about violent uprising and destruction and people in those cities being afraid to live there worry for their families not being able to go to work, scared for their livelihood so the fact that a lot of local politicians have just abandoned their posts and said we're not going to do anything about this that is shameful. we have representative doug collins on republican from georgia who calls out democrat leaders over this unrest. >> we have a democratic majority and a speaker of the house who undoubtedly hasn't looked around to see what's going on. when she talks about the people will do what they do and jerry nadler is just not been a confident chairman for 18 months we've seen that when he's just attacked the president. they're just more focused on winning elections than they are governing and what's sad is that people's properties being destroyed peoples lives are being lost because these mayors and these governors will not do their jobs. i'm tired of seeing mayors and governors and also speaker pelosi and jerry nadler just their responsibilities in order to win elections. this is sad. griff: 23 million in portland's downtown area and it continues. we turn now though to your headlines and begin with this fox news alert. at least three rockets land in baghdad overnight. no word on damage or injuries at this hour. it's not clear who fired the rockets we will bring you the latest details as soon as we get them. >> and flags flying at half staff in washington to honor john lewis the civil rights icon served as a georgia representative for 33 years. in atlanta a memorial is growing in front of a mural honoring him dr. alveda king joined us earlier praising lewis for his service. >> i remember john lewis, the peacemaker and anytime anybody wanted to bring him into controversy i would always say, that's not the john lewis i know. very consistent servant, a very good man. griff: lewis died friday night after battling pancreatic cancer he was 80 years old. >> and a police chief is hurt while taking down a stabbing suspect inside a virgin galactic church. police say fairfax county chief ed rossler was in a bible study when a man walked in and stabbed the pastor who was leading the class. rossler and another person dis armed the suspect and both were hurt in the scuffle and they are expected to be okay. the suspect is in custody and the motive remains unclear. >> play ball, major league baseball holding its first exhibition games before the new season. no fans are allowed in the stands. fake cheers filling national's park as the nats took on the philadelphia phillies. >> [crowd cheers] griff: some players wore face masks during the game. the league is using cardboard cutouts you'll see here to fill the stands. opening day is thursday and most of us can't wait for it those are your headlines. jed? jedediah: still unclear about the cardboard cutouts i don't know how i feel. still ahead peter strzok firing back at senator lindsey graham avenue documents raise more questions about that anti-trump dossier senator mike lee is here to react coming up. i had shingles. horrible. a young thing like me?

cancel their travel plans and spend the summer at home. boating company boat setter reporting a 270% surge in rental s compared to this time last year ranging from small fishing boats to mega yachts. curt knutson joins us now on board the 40-foot speed boat made famous by dwayne "the rock" johnson, and curt welcome to the show. i'm jealous you're out boating today so tell us why boating is so popular right now. reporter: jedediah good morning to you welcome aboard. this is called "sky fall" and it's one of about 130,000 boats that are available for rent on essentially what's the airbnb of boating, and that is called"get my boat".com. they also have an app and this would go for about $600 an hour or about $2,000 a day, and this side, by the way, you can find not only this luxury sport yacht for the day, but also i mean something much more affordable a lake runabout or if you tilt up and look at this right here, you can even find a mega yacht on this website, and why people are doing this is simple. it's the pandemic. they're looking for a safe, social distancing way to get away with their family, so replacing say a resort stay at a hotel is now people going out with their families and being safe and the charter businesses like the guys that own this boat , they know how to comply so all the surfaces are scrubbed down, sanitized and then if you do like say want to go out for the week, rather than the weekend, i have an idea for you. if you're working from home, check this out. this is from shakespeare. it's a wireless booster. why would you want this? well if you're chartering a boat or own one or want to take this out this will boost the internet, the data and the voice for every cell phone carrier you've got on the boat. that means the boss will never know you're out on the boat and you'll have that good throughput, the entire time , streaming anywhere you go. west marine has that for $649. that may seem high, but it's a very low price when you get out and figure out that this could be your new office, right? for a lower cost. jedediah, i'm just starting my day here. i wish you were with me, because this marine layer is about to clear and we're going to have beautiful sunny skies about 75 degrees today. jedediah: yeah, you know, curt i'm going to have to find out if that yacht in the back is available i probably can't afford it but a girl can dream but we see a 59% increase in new boat sales in may compared to april. how easy is it for someone to rent a boat, do they need to do it way way in advance or if i decide tomorrow i want to rent a boat, is that possible? >> jedediah you could do it right this second and go out today no matter where you are in the country if there's a spot of water nearby, it's there. and when you talk about new boat sales 59% from may, we're also talking about something really remarkable in the economy right now. compared to the last 10 years, this is the most, the highest amount of boat sales going on in 10 years. that speaks volumes about maybe some sort of economic return of people shifting their money in a direction that they otherwise would have spent somewhere else so i thought it was

the senator said new documents show obvious credibility issues with the intel that sparks the russia probe. >> jason: in a statement to the washington examiner, peter strzok's attorney says senator graham's statement represents another attempt by president trump's congressionals to use the work product to paint the russia investigation as a political witch hunt. gop senator mike lee sits on this senate judiciary committee and he joins us now with reaction. your committee released 57 pages that used to be classified. why is peter strzok lashing out like this? >> well, i think it's obvious that mr. strozk really messed with and manipulated our nations premier criminal justice investigative body. perhaps the most respected law enforcement organization in the world. now feels the need to blame somebody else and doesn't really want to take accountable for what he's done when in fact he's spied on and tried to gather dirt. the 45th president of the united states and his campaign organization before he was elected president of the united states. this is a big deal, and properly so, and mr. strozk has a lot to answer for. griff: and senator thanks for joining us i know you're on skype and i want to be very clear. we get a good answer here because ultimately, what chairman graham says is that these documents prove that the warrant on carter page, when he was surveilled it was misrepresented when they went to the fisa court based on the fact that these released documents are interviews with christopher steele's primary subsource who said and indicated that this was unreliable information. what does this mean? are people in legal jeopardy for misrepresenting this to the fisa court? >> they certainly should be, in legal jeopardy for doing that, and that will be taken up. we have to remember that there should have been some political review with the process. in other words at the time, this shouldn't have been something that could have gained notariety. it shouldn't have been something that the could serve as the foundation upon which [ audio difficulties] griff: all right thank you. senator i think we're having a little breakup there. jason you're familiar with these things basically the point that senator lee, a member of the senate judiciary committee was making and of course we are going to ultimately have hear ings it'll be interesting to see whether or not folks like former fbi agent strozk will call to testify and ultimately what these documents were showing was a possible misrepresentation to surveil a member of the trump campaign. >> jason: yeah it was spying and what senator lee was saying is that peter strzok has a lot to answer for and that's why it's mysterious why lindsey graham is calling up former fbi director mueller before his committee. it's more than a year after the mueller report. why not call up peter strzok and there's a lot of people that are frustrated that durham and barr haven't released or moved forward and actually, you know, prosecuted or let this case go, and the senate judiciary committee has got to do its job and call people like peter strzok as soon as possible. griff: great point and the investigation is still to come, we were told possibly this summer and it is summer so we'll find out. but still ahead, harris faulkner joins us live with her preview of her primetime special the fight for america right here on fox news focused on the nations path forward, amid civil unrest. stay tuned. when you start with a better that's no way to treat a dog... ...you can do no wrong. where

flying at half staff to honor john lewis as tributes pore in from around the country. the congressman and civil rights icon passing away on friday, after a battle with pancreatic cancer. he was 80 years old. we're now going to bring in harris faulkner, co-host of "out numbered" and host of harris faulkner presents the "fight for america" airing on fox news tonight at 10 p.m. eastern harris welcome to the show on this sunday we're so glad to have you here with us. >> thank you. jedediah: first and foremost, would love to get your reaction and your thoughts on the life and legacy of john lewis. >> you know, we have just lost one of the biggest voices that are still in the struggle right now, and i think that the timing of this is really tough, considering the fact that we need some clear voices coming from the protesters in the streets, so that we understand how best to move forward. he was one of those people as we say back in the day, who could take what the moment was and put it in words in which everybody could grasp and come up with ideas for , and a singular fashion which could lead to action and change, and that's really what we're thirsting for right now. we get that people are protesting, but there's not one singular presence like an mlk, a representative john lewis god rest his soul and there's been a lot of discussion, jedediah and everybody this morning, about what good trouble is, and people are concerned well, you know, if you stir up trouble, what does that mean? trouble is when you push for change and then anticipate and fully expect and see it through that it's going to happen. i'd like to say that we do that every day when we have discourse on television particularly, jedediah, you know, on this program and at noon on "out numbered", noon eastern, it's when you challenge the norms and when you challenge people who are in powerful positions and you consider every voice at the table to have meaning, that's the kind of trouble that you want to stir up because that's the only way you bring about change and that's really what tonight is about. i call it the fight for america because it's a tough spot always to be in, fighting with each other, fighting against something. why don't we in john lewis fashion pull together as one america, one people, and cause stir up the change that needs to happen. we're not going to solve everything in an hour of television but if we can advance the conversation in a solution- finding way, that is huge progress and a blessing and i'm glad to be part of it. >> jason: harris it is going to be an important special and it's 10:00 tonight eastern time. tell us more though about whose going to be there, who are you going to speak with during that hour? >> so jason, you'll appreciate this , because you know how it is on the hill. it's a rather and forgive this early morning term " constipated" set of circumstances when you try to get anything done on capitol hill these days so when you see senator scott, whose a prominent person on the hill, had a very good relationship, he's been tweeting and talking about it all weekend, with the late congressman lewis, when you see him stand up with legislation that people including the white house say that they can get behind and yet it doesn't go anywhere because it doesn't check enough of certain boxes for certain people on the hill, i don't know if those people are necessarily in the struggle. i don't know if they're in the streets but i can tell you this. if they represent everybody in america, they need to get to a point where when somebody like a senator scott comes fourth and can bring people together, after a moment that galvanized all of us george floyd's death, why does that fall flat? and by the way, he's been pulled over while driving black seven types and at one point had to since the capitol hill police that he was actually a u.s. senator. he's got a lot to say and he'll be on the program. i think that too, and griff maybe you can speak to this too. professional sports play an interesting role in black life, in american life, but particularly for black men in this country because that's where a lot of the wealth is driven for them. not everybody, but that's where a lot of it is, yet the actual ownership of the team, i mean if you look at the upper management , it hasn't really changed all that much so you'll see a lot of activism in sports. hershel walker nfl legend will join me, mark cuban who owns the dallas mavericks will join me. really do we want to replace the national anthem with the black national anthem at games? i think that's a conversation that needs to be had by people who are actually vested and invested in the moment that define sports, and can maybe help make some of those changes. griff: yeah, harris i want to ask you because i think you also included cops in law enforcement which is certainly a big part of this story. tell us about it. >> oh, yeah. well it's hugely important, because that's how we got here, for this particular chapter, with george floyd, those eight minutes and 46 seconds that i think so unified the nation that we were all looking out in the same direction, and seeing same thing. it just doesn't happen all that often, and it was about hope, it was about something that we all clarified as murder and wrong, but wanting to change whatever got us there. one of the people that i sit down for the special, people may be surprised but i think you bring every voice together and shawn hannity is a huge voice, and he talks with the president, he's active with law enforcement , he's very supportive as am i, and when we sat down and talked for this special tonight, and he and i were texting yesterday these are hugely important moments, you can't define entire police departments by some. i don't call them bad apples because i don't think of people as fruit but i think it's more cease just than that, and so why are we having the problems internally and why aren't those bad cops being held accountable by all of the good cops? shawn and i got into it a little bit. here is some of what he said. >> can we not forget when the shooting took place in washington and remember those two capitol hill officers that when steve scalise got shot >> uh-huh. i carried a firearm, i've been a pistol marksman since i was 10 or 11, carried a gun my whole life, big believer in gun safety too. i'm on top of that, and the two officers went in open field against the guy who had a rifle that was hidden. harris, you know what your odds are of winning that battle? next to zero, against a rifle but they did it anyway. on 9/11 when everybody was coming down, are we going to forget the cops and the firemen and the paramedics and first responders? all these great americans? they're going up. that's the 99%. jedediah: harris faulkner's primetime special "the fight for america" airs tonight at 10 p.m. eastern, right here on fox news. looking forward to seeing this , a very very important special at a very important time in this country's history, we're coming together and having a conversation is so valuable and so important, harris. >> you guys have given me the last word. the niece of mlk, alveda king will join me tonight as we have lost that huge civil rights voice. i'm curious to talk with her about what she thinks needs to be done to fill in black leadership at this point, so that we can start to move the conversation and hold everybody accountable to going forward. i feel blessed to be able to be part of the conversation, to lead it tonight and i'm so grateful to you guys for getting the word out this morning. happy sunday, to fox & friends i love you guys. griff: happy sunday. jedediah: thanks harris happy sunday to you and we can't wait to tune in tonight at 10 p.m. thanks so much. we're going to turn now to headlines for you. more than 600,000 people worldwide have now died from covid-19. the world health organization also reporting nearly 260,000 new confirmed cases, a daily record. the u.s. also setting new daily records in arizona, nearly 150 people died on saturday a new high. north carolina and missouri setting new infection records, north carolina seeing more than 2,000 new cases, missouri reporting nearly 1,000. lawmakers are set to hold hear ings and discussions this week on the coronavirus including the next economic stimulus package. >> and the armed st. louis cop who protected their home while protesters broke into their gat ed community are blasting the media's criticism of them. mark mcclosky speaking out with jessie waters overnight. >> the st. louis media has been slandering us. there was an editorial saying i'm a despicable person and everybody should dislike me but that's not against the law. sure we hate mr. mcclosky and you should too. jedediah: police seized his wife el even though he owns it legal ly. missouri governor mike parsons says he would likely pardon the couple if they are charged. >> and an nypd lieutenant violently attacked with a cane on the brooklyn bridge is released from the hospital. >> [applause] >> what we did out there, we would do it again in a heartbeat i'd do it again tomorrow. jedediah: lt. richard mack was one of several officers hurt during the violent protests last week. at least one woman is charged in the assault and released from jail after posting bail. those are your headlines. griff: all right glad he's okay. still ahead, brand new fox news polls show the coronavirus and the economy are the top issues on voter's minds. maria bartiromo here to react, after the break. a lot of healthy foods are very acidic and they're actually pulling out the minerals from the enamel. i like to recommend pronamel to my patients. pronamel will help push the minerals back into the enamel, to keep the enamel strong. i know it works. and i hear nothing but great things from my patients that have switched to it. if your dry eye symptoms keep coming back, inflammation in your eye might be to blame. looks like a great day for achy, burning eyes! over-the-counter eye drops typically work by lubricating your eyes and may provide temporary relief. ha! these drops probably won't touch me. xiidra works differently, targeting inflammation that can cause dry eye disease. what is that? xiidra, noooo! it can provide lasting relief. xiidra is the only fda approved treatment specifically for the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease. one drop in each eye, twice a day. don't use if you're allergic to xiidra. common side effects include eye irritation, discomfort or blurred vision when applied to the eye, and unusual taste sensation. don't touch container tip to your eye or any surface. after using xiidra, wait 15 minutes before reinserting contacts. got any room in your eye? talk to an eye doctor about twice-daily xiidra. i prefer you didn't! xiidra. not today, dry eye. i prefer you didn't! walk to end alzheimer's alzheis everywhere.tion on every sidewalk, track, and trail across this country. all of us are raising funds for one goal: a world without alzheimer's and all other dementia. because this disease isn't waiting, neither are you. take the first step on your walk right now. go to alz dot org slash walk. griff: now with quick headlines, two u.s. cities are declaring racism a public health emergency including minneapolis, where george floyd was killed, burlington, vermont, and soon leaders are pledging to take action and dedicate more resources to racial equality. in a growing petition is urging trader joe's to rename ethnic food products and it claims names like trader jose and trader mings carry harmful stereotypes and the grocery giant already started the process and expects all labels to be changed soon. jed? jedediah: coming up today on "sunday morning futures", mark meadows and billionaire ray dali o one topic we can surely expect to see is the economy and the upcoming election. >> jason: this as a brand new fox poll shows 15% of voters say the economy is the number one problem facing the country. just seconds behind the coronavirus. jedediah: here to react "sunday morning futures" host maria bartiromo, maria always a pleasure to have you on the show so what do you make of that breakdown of the issues that are most important to voters right now? maria: well, you know, i think it makes sense that good morning , everyone thank you so much for having me but i think it makes sense that the coronavirus is number one obviously, given what we have been through. you know if you look back at these polls in march, right before the coronavirus, the president was at 51% and the coronavirus and his handling of it has certainly been debated and as a result he has come down in these polls but i just want to say that this poll is certainly better than the last one that we were looking at in terms of his performance versus joe biden in terms of the economy. the public continues to think that the president has done the best in terms of leading this economy, but we are certainly in a recession, and people are worried. the unemployment benefits will go away in two weeks, those extra $600 unemployment benefits they expire july 31. that is why it is critical that congress gets back to work tomorrow, and hammers out another relief package that's what we're expecting. also, i just want to say that with these pollings, griff, you know, normally, pollings are done on landlines and on cell phones, but the cell phones are much more expensive. a lot of these pollings are not considering cell phones. they're doing all landlines so some of this you have to remember that polling has become difficult, and it's not, you know it's much more expensive to do cell phones, so i'm not sure if i'm buying all of these polls because it's very expensive. they don't want to charge their client $200,000 because they did a poll, all cell phones. griff: good point it's interesting to note you put your finger on it maria and that is the president's handling on the economy in our poll, i just want to quickly show you, you see the approval of how the presidents handling the economy, 47% now down, it was 49 in june, 54 in february, what's this tell us? maria: well it tells you that we're in a recession, griff. we have started to look at growth for the third quarter we're now in the third quarter but you know, we had a very severe recession, and the contraction in the second quarter we don't even know how bad, it's going to be up to 30% contraction in the second quarter. you've been talking about restaurants not having any cash flow. they don't have any foot traffic people are feeling it. there is real hurt going on out there, because of what we have seen take place. that's why all eyes are on china , and ag barr gave a very significant speech this last week and he gave a speech talking directly to corporate america, and this is something that he told me three weeks ago when i did an exclusive with him when he said corporate america is more interested in getting short-term profits than they are about understanding the real national security issues, this morning when i speak with ray dalio, i'm going to get that corporate response, that global investor response why they continue to invest in china, continue to in some cases the chinese communist party as ag barr says without understanding the true national security risk. this is very interesting in getting ray dalio's take, the largest hedge fund ever that he built this company, bridge water we'll get his take on all of that as well as get the blueprint for these next three weeks out of congress we've got mark meadows coming up to tell us the white house's take on this next relief package and of course kevin mccarthy and senator kennedy who are going to be at work for a couple weeks and then they go away again for the recess in august they have to get something done in the next two weeks. griff: and they're far apart maria as always a great lineup, coming up in just about nine minutes right here, stay tuned thanks, maria and meanwhile we have more "fox & friends" right after the break. >> ♪ ♪ we can't just take from nature... so we collaborate ♪ ocean spray works with nature every day to farm in a sustainable way griff: welcome back. we round out today's show talking about unfortunately, the violence in cities around america, particularly in chicago where you see what started on friday night, with the attack at the statue of columbus, a lot being injured there including law enforcement officers and of course, the larger problem of chicago's shootings and murder rate rising, getting out of control, jed. jedediah: yeah that's right, griff. we actually have the president of chicago's police union, who has sent a letter to president trump that says the following. these politicians are failing the good men and women of this city and the police department. i have pushed back on their fail ing liberal policies i really believe your help and cooperation could make a big difference and rally the silent majority to say enough is enough he is a supporter of president trump important to note but this is not going to be uncommon because police in a lot of these areas are noticing that the mayors, the governors are doing nothing and they're feeling they have no other option other than to the president who has made law and order a priority for this administration and moving forward for his campaign saying listen we need help on the ground. we're not going to let these communities just go down in flames. we need your assistance. >> jason: it really is a choice and i think, you know, you can maybe look at one day or two days but when you look at years, weeks, months, and days of things that just keep going on and on, it is a conscience choice and things have to change we had gian ox coldwell on earlier on fox. listen to what he had to say about this. he grew up in chicago. >> you've got people literally dying in the streets and you have a mayor whose more focused on the politics of the day than the citizens that she took a sworn oath to protect. this is disgusting and it's disturb aging and now president trump has a very unique opportunity when law and order should be the central focus on everyone's mind in these large cities this is a time for president trump to take a foot in the sand, and make a decision. we have to stop the violence in the city and the mayors of these major cities have completely failed it's time for the federal government to step in. jedediah: and to those who are saying it's a local matter well local authorities aren't doing their job which leaves no recourse except for the federal government to step in. that is where we're at unfortunately. more "fox & friends" is coming up moments away. whether it's bribes to roll over. ...or an overdue makeover. get all your pet essentials
