"varney & company" is up next. welcome back. >> here i am, good morning, everyone. as you might expect we are 70 days to go to the election, plenty of action and politics. rfk junior backed trump, he wants to make america healthy again. the kennedy family disowned him, his sister kerry said her

begin. ♪ ♪ ♪. stuart: i know it's early rock 'n' roll that i like it when it's on by the rolling stones. looking at a sunny, hot new york city, let's start with politics. sunny and hot donald trump suggested he might skip the abc debate with, the hairs on september the tenth. what is the problem. >> trump is debating whether to debate why would i do the debate against kamala harris on that network abc will the panelist get the questions to the marxist candidate like she did for crooked hilary clinton and kamala harris best friend will likely do likewise. they've a lot of questions to answer, why did harris turned on fox, nbc and even cnn but
9:04 am
politico says behind-the-scenes both campaigns are at an impasse over the rules of the debate. one of the issues is microphone muting. harris wants the microphone hot at all times in a campaign advisor tells fox they believe trump's team does not trust him that he can't handle himself without the benefit of a muted bike. trump's campaign is responding satan enough with the games we'd excepted the debate harris camp after agreed to the cnn rules after the first debate last for a seated debate with notes and opening statements. we said no changes to the agreed-upon rules. who agreed on these rules, abc, trump and biden. now it is harris, which way is it going to be, the debate is scheduled to week from tomorrow. stuart: let's see if that happens. charlie hurt his joining us this morning. we are skipping this debate. >> i think it would be best to
9:05 am
participate in the debate but let's be clear any normal candidate running against a media that is this supposed to the candidate and has demonstrated such fealty to the other campaign that candidate would never to principate in a debate with the abc. going in trump's favor is the fact that trump always does better when he's up against somebody who is an opponent and it doesn't matter. obviously he'll be up against kamala harris but usually when he goes into these, not only up against his political opponent pretties up against the media which is just as much, probably a better opponent than his political candidate opponent. on a normal circumstances no candidate would agree to this but in trump's circumstances he will probably do much better. stuart: i see that, listen to what rfk junior said about
9:06 am
ending his campaign and endorsing truck. roll tape. >> it became clear, i did not have a path to victory. 16 months of censorship of not being able to get on any network except for fox. i had two appearances in 16 months. i was blocked off the networks and off of the debate. stuart: does this move in favor of trump? >> think without a doubt and is also important to take a moment and look at this. the democrat party has become the party of censorship and government control and that's only reason to audit figures like donald trump and rfk junior would wind up aligning together. but i think it underlines just how dramatically off the screen the democrat party has moved. i do think it'll make a
9:07 am
difference particularly in the swing states but it also really does feed directly into the message of the term campaign which is the federal government has been taken over mainly by the democrat party but also the media complex in the only way this is the last best shot at trying to rein in the powerful government that has been taken over and is completely designed only to protect its own power and not deliver for normal voters. stuart: charlie hurt on a monday morning. great stuff, see you soon. the harris campaign has announced a spectacular fundraising operation how much has she brought and since biden left the campaign. >> $540 million since july 21. more than half a billion in over a month. 82 million last week during the convention and 40 million during
9:08 am
and after she spoke and accepted the nomination thursday evening. interestingly two thirds of the first-time donors, women. >> that is interesting, two thirds of the first-time donors. >> in a fifth. stuart: i presume that is the case. >> i give you that, freedom for the young people, those were the messages that resonated with certain demographics. stuart: what else do we got you told us where the money is coming from, billionaires, wait a second a lot of the money coming in. >> both campaigns to his bankrolling names, billionaires, 16% of all donations to harris and trump in they're down ballot congressional races are coming from the mega donors. in dollar terms, seven-point to billion dollars according to open secrets and of that one point to billion from 100 donors really rich people, bankers and
9:09 am
oil tycoons. it begs the question, what do they expect for their investment should there candidate when. stuart: . quote pro, who knows. let's check the markets, you want to know where your markets going down what 70, nasdaq down 17. jessica with me. we have to talk about nvidia. that is the all-important earnings report that comes out wednesday "after the bell". why do you say that nvidia stock could come down 25% in september. >> i might be the only one saying this but i think i just located right shoulder patting myself on the back for recommending it on your show in 2018 which was $3 split adjusted. here's what i think, back in july jensen weighing the ceo of nvidia came out and said there could be some delays in the
9:10 am
black wealth chip which is a big gpu that they put a lot of faith in. there's not been a ton of clarification as to the potential delays. what i see with nvidia. i see a stock that virtually everybody loves, earnings are going to be good but they're not good to be as good as people want them to be. we going to see a doubling in revenue, doubling in sales but they're not going to be as good and you have a black wealth chip potential defect hanging over it. as a result of that, you've seen there's been 360 hedge funds that have reduced their positions and nobody is selling all of their positions. they own 80% of the a.i. chip market and when you have company spending tens of billions, hundreds of billions of dollars
9:11 am
in the ramp up in a either the direct beneficiaries. stuart: if it came down 25% in september that would spill over into the rest of america big time wouldn't it? >> if you look at the market last year it was strong it is been strong in 2024 but if it wasn't for a.i. if you remove nvidia, hail to the king, nvidia is the king, they've come from virtual excluding to be the top of the top. if they do, that's why i consider this wednesday earnings reports more important than powell testimony asked week. i think it might be the most important thing that the market has to focus on this entire y year. >> you on videotape of the 25% drop for the stock in september. back on to justify your position. jeff sica, you have a nice day. coming up kevin o'leary says the
9:12 am
democrats could have sunk the election with one huge mistake. >> harris has assumed a winner by anointment they missed the opportunity to run a process and suck up another week of your time they did not do that that may prove to be a huge mistake. >> they will join us in the 10:00 o'clock hour. the southern border is a major concern for voters and bernie sanders a is taking no. >> we have a crisis at the border. keeping people from illegally entering the country is obviously the right thing to do. we need comprehensive immigration reform. stuart: it seems like he's taking a leaf out of the trump talking point book. near congressman nicole malliotakis lori act did not just a moment. ♪

9:18 am
similar agency failure from ever happening again. the task force can use a subpoena power to get answers. at the end of the investigation lawmakers will make recommendation for agency reform or new laws. four of the groups republican members including mike kelly will be here today alongside all six of the democratic lawmakers. the task force was briefed by the fbi last week and one congressman tells fox the agency says is making progress accessing encrypted accounts used by gunman thomas crooks. former president donald trump told elon musk that he plans to return to butler pennsylvania sometime in october but there is anxiety amongst local leaders about his return. >> i think the concerns really are amongst law enforcement right now. i think there is a trust level that has to be rebuilt. i'm hopeful behind the scenes what is happening is that the law enforcement agencies are
9:19 am
getting together and looking at how they can do better. >> at least five agents who were involved in the raleigh security planning our administrative d duty. a source tells fox more agents may be caught up in the agency's internal investigation and several republican lawmakers in d.c. are also holding a forum on the assassination attempt. back to you. stuart: thank you very much. listen to what senator ron johnson had to say about the investigation. >> all i can tell you is the secret service, fbi r dragging their feet and stonewalling us. we had some transcribed interviews but the documents we requested are heavily redacted and delivered the day of the interview so we can't use the documents to conduct the interview in an effective way. were not getting squawk from the standpoint from the secret service or the fbi we requested the 302's entrance comes in
9:20 am
interviews with hundreds of individuals. they're not turning those over as well. stuart: or call malia talk is republican from new york joins me now why is fbi only handed over heavily redacted documents that don't tell us very much. in the back of a lot of people minds are cover. >> this is the way this administration operates they do not give us transparency, they stonewall and make us fight, sue, subpoena for every bit of information that we can give to the public. it's wrong and it's why we have to get rid of this administration but it raises a lot of questions. why is the fbi not being forthcoming this is that this same thing when it comes to the covid pandemic they were forced to relieve something by a law unanimously in the house and senate and they delivered something that was redacted as well which does not comply with the law. when you talk about afghanistan in the 13 soldiers that died three years ago today they give us little information.
9:21 am
this is the way this administration is and people need to take know if they wanted transparent government they need to elect president trump again and we do want answers and we must give the people answers because the former president and a now candidate was almost murdered in this administration is awkward to comply and be forthcoming that is unconscionable to me. stuart: let's move to the border listen to senator bernie sanders speak out about the border crisis. >> we have the crisis at the border and we have to make sure fentanyl does not get into this country and crackdown on illegal immigration but we need comprehensive immigration reform young god knows how many young people in this country as a result of daca who deserve to gain citizenship. we need skilled workers and workers. a lot of labor shortage all over america were immigrants complete important role. keeping people from illegally
9:22 am
entering the country is the right thing to do but we need comprehensive immigration reform and i suspect that's what the vice president supports. stuart: can you believe this bernie sanders calling for border control. >> you know the election is around the corner when democrats speak like republicans. he should remind the world that it's biden harris that putting 60 executive orders that dismantled the border. shocking to see the new york city democrats running to the convention with such a crisis created here where we had cops shot, a young girl, three women raped in a two-week period by illegal immigrants and their flocking to endorse the same people that put the policies in place and can easily fix it today if they wanted under the executive orders you put in place. stuart: new york adams cannot get a speaking slot they would not let them understand. thank you for joining us. some students in massachusetts are left without bus service,
9:23 am
does this have anything to do with migrants. >> yes i know they won't say that outright the outside of boston they welcomed 237 migrant families. that's 100 kids that will need buses to go to the seven schools in the district. the migrant children get to dedicated buses paid for by the state but 150 resident children will not get bus service from classes next wednesday. the superintendent says it's not because of the migrants that budget for those two buses is separate he blames allotment application, bigger demand and a bus driver shortage. obviously the parents are mad and discussing options, can we pay for a bus or can we do double runs which means some of the kids might have to go to school when it's dark outside, super early so the bus can make another run. migrants are just fine. stuart: look effective money, thou up 70, s&p [and nasdaq down
