6:00 am
biden and harris talk about how wages have kept up. no, they have not. no employer on this planet can give their employees a ten to 20% raise a year. it is not happening. that is a fallacy. i don't want expect employers to do that. no way they can. >> lawrence: i have 15 seconds. can you survive a kamala harris presidency? >> 15 seconds. my father fought in korea, a life long democrat. he fought the communists, okay? i was born in a free country and i want to die in a free country. if we go to harris, it is communism and i'm not living my life that way, absolutely not. >> lawrence: greg, you aren't alone. i go to diners across this country and share the same story. thank you so much for joining us this morning and thank you so much for joining the show. see you all tomorrow. >> dana: "fox & friends." backtracking on the border. vice president kamala harris
6:01 am
pledging to build the wall she once mocked as a vanity project. i'm dana perino. bret, thank you for being here. >> bret: i'm bret baier in washington, "america's newsroom." vice president harris is pledging to revive a bipartisan border deal that died in the senate. it requires hundreds of millions for the border wall. back when she was a senator, harris suggested the project was pointless. >> we need to president to focus on instead of a wall. that wall ain't going to stop them? no, no, no. folks, on the subject of trans nation loll gangs, let's be perfectly clear. the president's medieval vanity project won't stop them. this administration has decided to vilify them and trade on them for the sake of this president's medieval vanity project called a wall. he has decided to vilify immigrants and put his whole
6:02 am
political strength around a vanity project called a wall which would cost taxpayers of america billions of dollars. by the way, that wall will never get built. >> dana: reversal comes as voters show president trump to do a better job on the border and immigration. harold ford junior and charlie hurt are on deck. let's first go to peter doocy. >> it's not just in that clip you guys played of harris, because president biden also once said he was not going to build one more foot of border wall. she is now number two in his administration. the vice president's support for this border wall money now is kind of hiding in plain sight. she said this in her convention acceptance speech. >> i refuse to play politics with our security. and here is my pledge to you. as president, i will bring back
6:03 am
the bipartisan border security bill that he killed and i will sign it into law. >> so that's where the wall is, in the bipartisan bill. it has provisions to spend hundreds of millions of dollars set aside during the trump years on new border barriers. so it is taxpayer dollars for a wall representing a huge evolution from this february 2020 post on x as i said, trump's border wall is a complete waste of taxpayer money and won't make us any safer. harris continues trying to present her candidacy as a break from the recent past. trump all aisles said she is in charge of the recent past. >> all of a sudden you want a wall? to the people in arizona do you believe she will build a wall? that's [bleep]. she has had four years to build a wall and she has done nothing. >> harris and team over the last couple of weeks have talked about the bipartisan border bill. something that does more than just build a wall or border barrier, despite this new
6:04 am
flip-flop, we don't expect her to be leading supporters in chants of build the wall any time soon. bret. >> bret: peter, thanks. >> dana: charlie hurt and harold ford junior are here with me. the "new york post" cover. i shoot this one to you, charlie. you are a big fan of the "new york post." harris for trump. copies the dawn. kamala's 180 degree turn on the border is the latest idea she stole from trump. is that going to work? >> it's hard to see how it will. you get the sense that even within the harris campaign, they were surprised by the axios story. they had no idea what was in the bill. this goes back to the larger problem which is that nobody has any idea where kamala harris stands on anything, most namely this. what we're reduced to doing is going back and figuring out how much time she spent on holding
6:05 am
which position and the fact that she came up with this catchy phrase about a medieval vanity project and repeated it many times. it was a little gem she carried in her pocket for a while leads you to think that's probably her longest-held belief on this issue. so maybe that's where she is but you just never know with her. >> dana: and here is a quote from the trump spokesperson carolyn leavitt. how much longer will the mainstream media allow kamala harris to hide and use staff to speak on her behalf? that could come to an end tomorrow when we finally have a built-up first interview that kamala harris will do as the nominee. >> good morning and thanks for having me. look, i think a lot of americans are interested in hearing vice president harris talk about this and talk about energy security, talk about other aspects of national security and even her economic plan. we'll get a taste of it, the
6:06 am
beginnings of that tomorrow evening. i step back a little bit and say i think it's okay for elected officials and those running for office to have a changed position. i think the real issue and charlie was trying to get at is how authentic are they in the change? is ambition driving the change or authenticity driving the change? authenticity could be elements of that in my mind changed circumstances and facts. if indeed -- i'm for the wall and been for it personally for a while. if vice president harris has come around to that and she has if she says she supports the bipartisan border security bill that was rejected by the senate and reports suggested it was president trump who urged republicans in the senate not to vote for it. interested in hearing president trump answer some of those questions in the debate over the next week and a half. the larger points you make, dana, i'm glad to see the vice president speaking with the press. i hope it is a trend that continues over the next several weeks. >> dana: the presidency is a decision-making experience,
6:07 am
charlie. and the deliberations over who to even give a first interview have raised the stakes on the bar of this interview so much it almost feels you should ask yourself charlie, do you remember where you were when the cnn interview was announced? [laughter] >> yeah, it is kind of weird. i can't imagine that she is going to perform as badly as we assume she is given everything that have gone into all this. but again, she is talking about sitting down for a joint interview with cnn, which has hardly been a bulldog for her. if she can't get -- manage to get favorable treatment out of this political press, then how do you expect her to sit down with foreign leaders or as you point out, make any sort of decisions that a president is expected to make? it is laughable to me. it shows not just contempt for the press.
6:08 am
it shows contempt for voters and the whole process we have by which voters are supposed to learn about the positions of candidates before we cast our ballot. >> dana: regardless of the interview, harold, this race is basically tied. and we had governor kemp from georgia telling trump you can't win without georgia. so i think you will see the candidates there quite often. i spoke to someone, harold, love your opinion on the sun belt states. from north carolina saying that perhaps she has done better so his lead has gone from winning by six to maybe winning by two. my friend that i know who works down there says he is confident that trump will win north carolina. where do you see the sun belt states as we go into the big interview tomorrow night? >> i think it is good for the sun belt states. georgia, north carolina included, to have both candidates, both parties thinking about these states and focusing on these states in a serious way, spending resources
6:09 am
and sending candidates there. so often we confine the race to big ten states. i have no issue with that. i think the wider you make the map, the better it is for the country. who knows if the numbers are two, three, four in favor of one or the other or for that matter if it's a dead heat. one thing we do know is these candidates will campaign in a very serious way there. i would add on the cnn thing one thing to charlie's point. it was a cnn interview -- debate that really made it almost impossible for president biden to continue. so they will ask questions. they may not be the most probing questions. i think dana and martha and bret baier could ask better questions. let the chips fall. charlie says i hope she does more interviews. we deserve to see these candidates answering tough questions standing side-by-side. >> dana: what a way to kick off the day.
6:10 am
thank you so much. bret. >> bret: israel launches a huge counter terrorism operation in the west bank overnight. palestinian health officials say at least nine people were killed there and the city sealed off. trey yengst is live in southern israel. good morning, trey. >> bret, good morning. overnight israeli forces launched a large scale raid in the west bank. the operation targeting the cities that are two meant to go after militant cells there. we know according to local health officials that nine palestinians were killed so far with the operation ongoing. video shows troops driving into palestinian controlled areas after conducting a drone strike earlier this week in a city killing a hamas militant released as part of the november cease-fire deal. growing concern iran is funding and training cells in the west bank to launch suicide attacks against israel as the conflict

6:18 am
a hot end as we head into labor day weekend, bret. >> bret: former president trump indicted again in the election interference case. the revised charges to respond to the supreme court ruling giving presidents broad immunity. the court filing says the superseding indictment, i was presented to a new grand jury that had not previously heard evidence in this case, reflects the government's efforts to respect and implement the supreme court's holdings and remand instructions. brett tolman is a former u.s. attorney. brett, good morning. what is your take on this and where it is going? >> good morning, bret, thank you for having me. i was fascinated to see that there really appears to be very little deference given to the supreme court opinion. a very -- attempt to take away some of the facts they thought may have been problematic having
6:19 am
to do with the interaction that president trump had with the department of justice. but it did not take out facts that i think the supreme court was fairly clear about that although they may be facts that the justice department thinks are valuable and may incriminate the president, he certainly is entitled to very broad, broad immunity especially when it comes to his interactions with his lawyers and his interactions with mike pence and others while he was president of the united states. >> bret: supreme court justice jackson talked to cbs about that broad immunity and her concerns about it. take a listen. >> you were concerned about broad immunity. >> i was concerned about a system that appeared to provide immunity for one individual under one set of circumstances. when we have a criminal justice
6:20 am
system that had ordinarily treated everyone the same. >> are you prepared this election could end up before the supreme court? >> as prepared as anyone can be. >> bret: how fast could this move potentially, bret? >> well, i'm struck by the fact that the law absolutely does treat some individuals differently. prosecutors and other government employees have immunity, law enforcement have immunity, prosecutors have long identified that the president has broad immunity. look, this is not going to be a quick turn around. this i believe was an effort -- remember, bret, the opening paragraph of this indictment clearly indicates that the president was attempting to legally challenge the election using his lawyers. and the conspiracy is about his interaction with his lawyers. so we're in unchartered ground
6:21 am
when it comes to a prosecution that is attempting to get at the heart of an individual attempting to use the legal system to overturn an election whether right or wrong doesn't make it criminal. >> bret: the president has been active about this effort. here is j.d. vance. >> looks like jack smith doing more what he does, filing these absurd lawsuits in an effort to influence the election. the reason the supreme court threw out his lawsuit is because they said it im me indicated the president's official acts which the president has immunity in conducting those official acts. i don't think it changes anything legally. >> bret: does it affect this election now is the question. >> well, i think certainly it is a factor that voters want to know, you know, how legitimate are the charges against him and how legitimate are the allegations that president trump engaged in criminal conduct.
6:22 am
the overarching analysis that has to be done is why rush to bring an indictment against the former president especially now after having the supreme court explain in great detail how strong the immunity is that the president of the united states has. and bret, we want it that way. we don't want one side or the other targeting political opponents and former presidents in order to eliminate their ability to run for office. so i hope that this sees what ultimately is a circuit or supreme court looking at the case and appreciating the dynamics of the case and throwing it out. it doesn't do any of us any good to see this kind of weaponization of the justice system. >> bret: thank you. >> dana: well, we've been talking about all these big issues coming up in the campaign. housing is one. another one. the cost of car insurance is
6:23 am
crushing drivers. rates spiked since president biden took office and projected to surge even more this year. fox business's max gordon is live from los angeles with an explanation as to what is going on. >> well, here in california, car insurance rates are expected to jump by more than 50% by the end of the year, one of three states who will be seeing that. it is happening in missouri and minnesota. the big reason for this, well, it's natural disasters. severe weather. that's all according to a study from a company that provides information about the insurance market. the average cost of full coverage in the u.s. rose by 15% in the first half of this year. that number is expected to hit 22% by the end of this year. the report says that increase in severe weather events is one of the main drivers behind these increasing premiums. climate events that cause a billion or more in damage have been on the rise impacting how
6:24 am
insurers set rates. hail-related claims were up to 11.8% of all comprehensive claims in 2023 according to the report. 2.8% increase since 2020. vehicle maintenance and repair costs have also increased by around 38% over the past five years according to federal. they've led to more expensive claims with insurance companies passing the cost to consumers in the way of higher premiums. drivers seem to be getting into more crashes nowadays. >> since the covid-19 pandemic americans have just -- it seems like they are driving worse than before. accident rates are up. up very substantially. year-over-year between 2020 and 2021. and though they have plated to they haven't come down to pre-pandemic levels. >> where is the most expensive auto insurance? that goes to maryland with the average annual cost of full coverage sitting at $3400
6:25 am
according to the company. due in part to a spike in traffic fatalities in the state and legislation that placed increased financial responsibility on insurance companies. the lowest insurance in the country for car insurance, that title goes to new hampshire with an average rate around $1 thousand. dana. >> dana: governor sununu taking victory lapse up there. thanks for bringing us the story. those are numbers to watch. >> bret: colleges bracing for more anti-israel protests like these as students return to campus. what officials are doing to secure their schools. plus families on lockdown for the final weeks of summer as potentially fatal mosquito viruses are on the rise. >> we're dead end hosts meaning if you got this west nile, you aren't going to get bit by a

>> bret: a 41-year-old man in new hampshire is dead after he was infected with a mosquito-born virus better known as eee. stephen perry was hospitalized with a severe central nervous system illness and died within a week. his family says he was healthy with no underlying conditions. this comes as the cdc is warning it's peak mosquito season and they may carry highly infectious and deadly diseases. [shouting and chanting] >> ainsley: pro-palestinian chants ringing out in cornell university at the library there
6:32 am
echoing the horror seen across college campuses last spring. universities are bracing for a new wave of protests. joining us now former retired nypd inspector and lawyer paul mauro. they aren't shy about telling everybody we're going to do these protests. this fall. the protestors intend to bring the pain to the university. >> some instances this has already started. they have done vandalism, some protests up at columbia, which seems to be becoming ground 0 for this stuff. we've had a number of things already happen. for instance, pro-israel groups have already protested and marched demanding that the protestors on the other side unmask themselves. why? new york city is concerned about this and they may be passing a law that protestors can't keep their masks on. so all this stuff now is going very much into the legal realm. columbia had to settle a class action suit.
6:33 am
it is coming and be in the legal world and on the street. as we saw at the dnc last week not just about gaza. i think that's something that a lot of our viewers might not understand is that yeah, it is -- the primary cause here is the gaza issue. without any nuance. they just want israel gone. there is no way the adjacent groups will let this go on without getting involved. a lot of groups that are more volatile and what police departments are worried about. >> dana: maybe university presidents should be, too. ivy league presidents who resigned amidst protests, a list of them here from penn, harvard, cornell and columbia. so what would the new university presidents do differently this year than before? >> they've started. a number of the schools have put in mandatory training for new students coming in or returning. you have to take a class on essentially the first amendment but also what you are allowed to do and what you are not allowed to do. the thing that they seem to be
6:34 am
trying to hold the line on is encampments. they don't want those permanent encampments where you have kids entrenched and you have to peel them out. an interesting thing going on relative. students for justice in palestinian is one of the groups very involved in the protesting. their instagram account has been one of the ways the groups have been able to coordinate. well, the number of those chapters of the students for justice of palestinian have had their instagram accounts suspended, taken down. columbia is one of them. a couple other schools the same thing happened at all once. not an accident. you have to wonder is it relative to what we see going on in telegram? that's the same issue because telegram was another way that these groups coordinated. so you are seeing a number of things. i'm not sure the telegram thing is related to this but part of a trend where the communications are being shut down or closely
6:35 am
scrutinized because some illegality is coming out of them and there is liability there. >> dana: do you think any of those students protesting for palestinians would explain hamas holding a bedouin man for the last 11 months, father of seven. this is not a jewish guy, israelis rescued him. this morning i was listening to the daily and the host misspoke and she said yesterday when the hostage was released. no, ma'am, not released. he was rescued. i don't think those students have any idea. >> most of the students protesting or very many of them couldn't find gaza on a map of gaza. they wouldn't no a bedouin if he sat on their heads, all right? a lot of this having been out there embedded with them at the dnc last week. a lot of them this is just the flavor of the day. you can see the distinction if you are up close between the various gripe groups and who really, really cares.
6:36 am
you can see the people who have a real vested interest in gaza and you can see the others that are along for the ride because it is this year's flavor. the bottom line is columbia didn't expel anybody from last year. all the charges were dropped against everybody including the ones who vandalized and occupied the hall and held a custodian hostage and never charged for any of those crimes. they were not charged. >> dana: he wasn't even a student. >> no kidnapping, no unlawful imprisonment. no charges like that. bragg's out was we don't have enough evidence. it's all on film. that goes to the masks and they should pass that mask law. >> dana: is that imminent? >> it is possible. but of course there are vested interests who don't want it because they say it will still the first amendment. this has the potential for being an october surprise for the election. nationwide it could get messy. >> dana: i suspect dana bash

6:38 am
continue to burden the people trying to make an honest living. >> i think they feel like they are unsafe in the city in this area and in areas, so they are a little -- they're scared to come down here. >> it makes it tough to run businesses because of vandalism. vandalism, it costs us. when you get windows busted out and doors kicked in and get your whole establishment tore up. >> for big business minnesota now has the highest corporate tax rate in the nation at 9.8%. minnesota chamber of commerce says the administration much governor walz missed opportunities to grow business by emphasizing progressive policies creating tax and regulatory burdens limiting the ability of private sector to reach its potential. the chamber says minnesota is now 36th in the nation for gdp. 37th for job growth, bret.

6:46 am
take it apart. what about this and the warning to president biden it wasn't really feasible. >> the program was joint logistics over the shore system. created by the u.s. military going back to 1990 when we were concerned about getting equipment into the port. we'll have to go over the shore and bring something in supplies in. frankly this is one of those things where the army and military is to blame a little bit. they probably could have planned better on how they were going to put the program. it is a military operation. it is a lot of cost but for something to happen that really didn't happen getting the stuff in there. at the same time, i just keep looking at this almost like things just were not coordinated well. we were in desert storm had a three star general who ran those operations and just hap as arid. what happened, to me it's bad coordination by everything to include the military. i don't give them any slack on this one. they made mistakes as well.

>> bret: the white house is saying "new york times" hezbollah, israel contact contained next move may be modest. john kirby reiterating support from the white house to israel if iran attacks saying we believe they're postured and poised to launch an attack. should they want to do that. that is why we have the enhanced force posture in the region. do you see this calming down? >> i do. i think they're scared to death, iranians and hezbollah are scared to death and hamas is. what has happened in israel has reestablished deterrents in the region. deterrents is based off credibility based off capability and will. they know the israelis have the will to come at them have hard if something happen. they have a doctrine disproportion gnat response to something and the iranians know if they go to a certain point they will get hit. the supreme leader is at risk and nuclear sites as risk. they said let's cool the jets on this.

that's because the israelis -- what we have done. i give the israelis great credit for it. it's been three weeks and knee haven't done anything. >> bret: i want to turn to a topic. president trump at arlington national cemetery the three year anniversary of the death of the service members at abbey gate. some critics of the former president said it was a political move. npr had this story. two members of donald trump's campaign staff had a verbal and physical altercation with an official at the cemetery where the former president participated in the wreath laying ceremony saying the official tried to prevent trump staffers from filming from photographing in a section. you were right there. what did you see? >> i didn't see anything. i never saw the dust-up and close to the president and families as well. from me to you for most of them. the families wanted things to be photographed and they invited the president there. members of congress invited the president there as well.
6:49 am
i think kamala harris missed a huge opportunity. i go back to a dignified transfer i used to go with the president and vice president and you go and meet the families. this is honoring the families. they are taking their eye off the ball on a dust-up that nobody saw. the families wanted these photographs. when the president went to area 60 where veterans are buried that were deceased, the families after he laid the flowers the families wanted pictures around the headstones and grave sites and i saw him do a face time call with a young soldier killed as well and the families like that and want it for memory books. this is distracting from what should be the fact that president trump went to arlington national cemetery and honored them and when americans fall in battle, we should honor them. the fact that kamala harris and biden weren't there or didn't say very much about it and just put a press release out, i think it's a huge mistake. >> bret: you understand the
6:50 am
critics who say they don't want politics being a part of that. he is honoring the families. that issue is a political issue. >> of course it is. you see it. it is one of those it should cross all political lines. the fact is that he went, they died under harris's and biden's watch and she is the one who said she was the last one in the room when the decision was made in afghanistan to withdraw. it wasn't president trump. so because of those 13 great americans died and abbey gate that day three years ago from monday she should have had the decency and honor to say i honor those americans who fell. she didn't. i saw nothing. >> bret: as always, thank you. thanks for having me. >> dana reads sports. >> dana: i got something for you here. a new entry for the record books at the u.s. open.
