the deadly virus which is double the amount of troops the president is sending to iraq. look at that double the number. bring in today's panel. fox business's own charlie gasparino. david asman and marshall aurback from the institute of economic thinking. charlie, no beard, what happened? did someone shave you on the way to the studio. >> loathe to mix myofacial hair with ebola because this is serious topic. i will say this, three thousand troops, are these medical advisors? melissa: they are boots on the ground. it is symbolic of the commitment and financial commitment we're making to these two different major threats. twice the number of people are heading to deal with the ebola crisis as to deal with the isis threat. i think that is the comparison. >> really the question who threatens the homeland more, is it ebola or isis? i would arguably emphatically it is isis of the millions of people die every year because of diseases that are bred in the

third world. as we found out good thing about ebola, if you have first world technology applied to it, if in a first world setting you can cure it. we've done it several times now that. means as horrible as it is with the millions of people dying they are not threatening our homeland. the diseases they have are not threatening our homeland. melissa: inappropriate that we have doubled effort? >> i think it is. >> well, on on the other hand you can argue 3,000 will be much more cost effective way of dealing with something. i don't think three thousand will get you anywhere near solving isis problem. everyone concedes it is 10-year battle on our hands. you can make a point he is doing something practical with ebowl lakes never get the memo, never lie on your resume'. walmart's chief spokesman has resigned after the retailer notice ad fib on his resume'. basically he said he graduated from college and he didn't. he walked in the school's graduation ceremony. moved to new york. got the job. several months later he had been

in fact a few credits shy. he already had the job but never looked back but continued to list himself as graduate from the university. >> listen, i'm not advocating lying on resume' but i think there are other things. was he good pr? >> that is a big thing and take it off, say you attended instead of graduating. >> was he a good pr guy? >> more to the point. he walked into the graduation ceremony what happened? melissa: he walked in the ceremony and got a letter later. >> better than rosy ruse then at boston marathon. melissa: a lot of people are lying on resume'. >> one of the best hire i ever made working at "wall street journal" i hired james turrano. melissa: sure. >> my choice between james turrano who never graduated from college -- melissa: he didn't lie about it. >> and them from a guy turned out to be one of the biggest page garrists in the world, stephen glass. glass had ivy league credentials

and there was something wrong with him. he turned out to be a fake. melissa: 73% of the people in the financial services industry have lied on their resume'. >> that's stupid. they shouldn't. >> i will say this, if you didn't graduate from college now, i remember at a time first started in didn't have to graduate in college. my mentor, bob greene, great investigative reporter from "newsday." had two pulitzer's. went to fordham but never graduated. michael moss at "new york times." melissa: more reason he shouldn't have lied bit. >> here is the difference. now, if you almost can't, people won't interview you. >> i don't agree with you, charlie. there are people here who work at fox news right now did not graduate from college. >> as entry level, it is a fox news -- >> people on silicon valley didn't graduate from college. >> that is different. entrepreneurs totally different. melissa: scotland's independence vote two days away and britain's

prime minister david cameron practically begging the scots to say, quote, if you don't like me, i won't be here forever. if you don't like this government, it won't last forever but if you leave the u.k. this is forever. this is getting really desperate and contentious, what do you think? >> the undecided seem to be breaking very decisively towards independence. in a panic has the government although mr. cameron might find himself fulfilling truth of that prediction much earlier than he expects. his position would be untenable. >> he can't survive. >> but as a scott, i have to say i love to see the brits groveling at the feet of the scots to say, stay with us, please, stay with us. melissa: you're a scott? you hide your accent so well. you don't sound scottish. >> my wife bought me tart tans and little skirt. melissa: you have to wear them next week. we have a leg feed attitude yo. united is offering -- voluntary buyout option worth up to

$100,000. they leave early, they say, the cost is less to have flight attendant with less experience versus one with more said united spokesperson. they're trying to get the men and women to retie early for $100,000. on face of it sound like a lot of money. >> you have to pay me 100,000 to fly. that mask as bigger problem. melissa: you fly privately? are you that fancy? into no. i have to fly united unfortunately, and i'm sorry for one watching from unite, i will get a lot of angry phone calls. >> coffee in the face. >> look reality is it is a people business. if you keep undermining the wages and benefits of all these workers and demoralize them, you will get demoralizing flight experience actually. i think, as -- melissa: you agree with that. >> it's a tough job. the thing is, working as a flight attendant, i can't think of a tougher job. i would take the buyout if i was steward he's. >> i think of a lot of tougher jobs. working at mcdonald's, digging

ditches. >> to have 60 people scared, screaming at you. you know. you would make a good flight attendant. >> calm down. talk about a tough hard manuel labor very as you flight attendant. totally different. >> charlie i think it is easier to do manuel labor any day of the week. i've done both. i never been a flight attendant. i've done service industry and. >> you can get killed -- >> rather do hard labor. melissa: this news is coming in. bab news for pop star rihanna. cbs dropping her entirely from thursday night football following fallout from the ray rice abuse incident. last week, she was supposed to sing the open for the ravens game. they realized huge foe paw in that. now she is being cut entirely. there was a lot of backlash last week when they said rihanna is victimized again. >> why is she compared to him?

melissa: reasoning on other side she was a victim of domestic violence and did not speak out bit. they had an opportunity, given her stage -- i'm just saying this is what the other side is saying. i'm not advocating the other side. >> nfl, this is where i like roger goodell but running one of most bizarrely politically correct institutions in the world. melissa: sort of. then they didn't suspend ray rice until -- >> look what they did. of richie incognito, bullies somebody, thrown out of the game. ray rice is, no words and gets to stay in. melissa: i don't know if this is cbs decision or nfl decision or. >> it's a combination. it's a combination. >> our society is imbued with too much political correctness. >> not on domestic violence. >> words are worse than deeds? what did she do? she, told a lie? melissa: she had opportunity to speak out on a platform and -- you. >> should know anything about the nfl it works in conjunction with every major entity it deals

with. melissa: okay. speaking of politically incorrect, love me tinder. one guy might have perfected the dating site as he posted his $127,000 bank balance, as his profile picture. that is supposed to be a picture of your face. instead it is his bank balance. for uninitiated, tinder is dating app muchs you with others pretty much based on looks alone. $127,000. >> not exactly that rich. melissa: maybe he got a buyout from united much. >> going to say. >> in new york, maybe not but in sioux falls, iowa. melissa: he is 29 years old, that is impressive. $127,000 in your bank account. >> go to dell 'frisco's across the street. melissa: right. >> real rich people never really wragg about it, right? ken langone -- >> doesn't have to. everybody knows him. >> real people that make money never brag. i think -- melissa: you're saying this guy is coming off as -- >> l. >> loser.

melissa: the u.s. appears to be answering calls for increased response against isis. the latest airstrikes in iraq near baghdad. and sinjar being called the first part of an expanded effort to combat the islamic extremists that became a enormous threat across the globe. while more than 20 nations to meet in paris to form cohesive global strategy, iran is washing its hands of any involvement. retired four-star general jack keane joins me to talk about you will at different topics. talk about the strikes iraq. start there. six vehicles destroyed as well as isis combatant post, that was firing on iraqi troops. is this significant? is it meaningful? >> well just one of many steps we have to take. our air campaign, up to this point was largely defensive, to, to protect erbil, to protect the humanitarian effort. to protect u.s. personnel on the

ground. now we've given air power new mission, which is offensive in nature. that is to strike isis where they are throughout iraq, and hopefully, also in syria. i wish we were doing the same thing in syria as we speak but we're not there yet. but, so this campaign will change in scope and, in scale. and obviously these targets will become more consequential, as time goes on. melissa: speaking of overall strategies. more than 20 countries meeting in paris to talk about a broader strategy. meanwhile the ayatollah khamenei of iran, saying on twitter, i reject ad u.s. offer to iran about isis because the u.s. has corrupted its hand of this issue. is this embarrassing to us? i mean do you believe that we really approached them and that they refused to join in? >> no, i don't think we offered them the opportunity to become part of the coalition at all. i'm not suggesting we didn't

talk to them in some fashion but the fact of the matter, i don't think we made that offer. iran rake strategy in the region and regional hegemony, destruction of state of israel. goals since the islamic state of iran formed in 1980. we want peace and stability in the region. they have been killing us since 1980, using their proxies. i think a moral imperative we do not work with iran in any case, shape or form here. melissa: elsewhere in the area we joined together with 20 arab nations but apparently they said they don't want to be named. is that meaningful? >> well i think eventually they will be, but here is what is really going on, melissa. they're not certain about our stated objective which is to destroy and defeat isis. they're concerned about the president's conviction and determination to really see that through. and they are watching what resources he is using. he is not putting air advisors

down at the fighting units with the collage of military that we're using in iraq. these are the indigenous forces of peshmerga and iraqi forces and sunni tribes. not putting controllers there and not putting forces to kill and capture the isis leadership there. is concerns about the strategy really to destroy and defeat. or is the strategy truly just to degrade. melissa: general keane, thank you so much for your insight today. >> okay, take care. melissa: stocks firmly in rally mode on wall street. dow hitting new intraday record. mark newton on floor of the new york stock exchange. some are calling this jon hilsenrath rally, talking about "the wall street journal" fed reporter, who said the fed would dial back its language later this week and be even softer than people had expected. what are the traders saying on the floor? >> i think combination of two things, melissa and that is part of it. as the fed tries to end qe, it

might be difficult to change terminology and remove this considerable time phrase. really undertaking too much at once. so yes the market is obviously comfortable with considerable time remaining in the terminology and in markets rallying. we saw a decent move after the pbco, the people's bank of china announced huge injection of $100 million into five largest banks are. freeing up capital. china is obviously worried about properties coming down in value. anything to help stem that tide and provide liquidity is seen also as positive. melissa: yeah. >> decent movement out of a lot of defensive sectors but positive to see the dow at new highs. melissa: it is, mark. thank you. you wouldn't know we're seeing a new record but at the same time, none of the components within the dow hit a new high today, which tells you something about the breadth. thanks for joining us. >> my pleasure. melissa: tune in tomorrow, live coverage of the all-important fomc statement with fed chair janet yellen. that is the news conference she

400 million-dollar loan. i would like to get the loan. sears says it needs the cash to take it through the holiday season. yikes!. shareholders not taking that as a good sign. that's shocking! lampert is feeling it more than most. he has 25 million shares in sears. quick math, do it real quick. he lost 67 million bucks. that hurts. also losing money, minnesota vikings. rad disson pulled all sponsorship because of child abuse allegations against adrian peterson. rad disson said they need time to reevaluate all the facts. that is the name behind the picture. they don't like it. the restaurant that received 20-cent tip from lesh shown mccoy. the receipt is on ebay. where bidding started, to 20 cents. it is up to 100,000 bucks. the money is shared among all the employees.

year in modern history, started 2014 water year with low storage. we have combination of the regulatory drought and lack of snow and rain. melissa: i mean issue you're talking about in case people from around the country don't necessarily know about it, a lot of water is not allowed to be diverted to farmers where they need it because they say you're upsetting environment and wildlife and animals that need the water, rather than the farmers. what kind of financial loss are farmers seeing, jason? >> university of california dates estimates about a $2 billion hit. i think that is very conservative. 17,000 jobs lost, in, san joaquin valley farms. melissa: california produces nearly half of all of the fruits and nuts and vegetables that is eaten all around the country, that are eaten. the nation's leading dairy and wine producer as well. the revenue lost, as you said, about a billion dollars. that is not just this year, right? does this flow into next year? >> oh, yes.

we're very low storage going into next year and if we, even if we have a normal rainfall year, we could be looking again at zero or very lowa location because the reservoirs will end up 22% of capacity this fall. so, there is a lot of refill needed. and in our farmers have taken about 300,000-acres of land out of production this year, to give your viewers a sense, one acre can gee 40,000 salads. so there is a lot of food not being produced this year in california. melissa: jason, you're not first one to say that, what your legislators could do is change the law, that would bring you water right now. thank you for joining us. we appreciate night my pleasure, thank you. melissa: the droughts are not only thing california has been dealing with. unrelenting heat wave has been sending temperatures into triple digits in some parts, reaching up to 20 degrees above normal right now. it has been so bad, that residents have been maxing out air conditioners, sending power usage to levels unseen for years.

white house took this long and should have moved on this earlier. >> i am surprised the administration hasn't acted more quickly to address acted more quickly to address what is this serious threat not just to africans but to others from around the world and in the coming weeks you will see the congress and the administration take further steps to look at how do we best contained this very horrible disease? >> in responding to charges it took too long to the white house to move on this the white house is saying the centers for disease control started approaching this aggressively in march and say they are happy with their response and now is the appropriate time to read the. as for the thought that this will become a nation in the united states administration officials are saying any ebola infection in the united states is still a low risk scenario because the disease is not

airborne and they say customs and border patrol officers are on the lookout and inbound flights for anybody who may have symptoms. that is not the best measure but the white house says they are at least concerned and watching out for any potential infection in the united states. melissa: as we await the president's plans to step up efforts against the deadly virus new fears now that ebola could come before we are able to make headway. fighting it in africa by want to bring in dr. manny alvarez from fox news medical a team, thank you for joining us. let's see the numbers rich talked about. there's a lot of debate about this, hundred million dollar, 3,000 people, 500 health care workers for weeks, 400,000 treatment kits. are we doing enough? >> for weeks, i have been on the air on your show saying this had to be treated as a military operation. for weeks i have been criticizing the federal government for not doing enough. for weeks i have been

criticizing the cdc for not paying attention to the problem. now everybody's in panic mode. $1 billion. it will be more than that, it will be $1 billion, at to see if we can eradicate this problem because the turk is out of the box and running around like crazy. from the perspective of the question you asked, is this going to be, aubrey going to see cases here? perhaps the numbers are going to happen. is it going to be this type of virus that will turn, mutate? we don't know yet. i think it is too soon to tell. neurologists are not crazy about that constant. maria: they don't think it is likely. >> in the current form of transmission. if you have 100,000 people infected with the ebola virus in the african continent and europe than you have bigger fish to fry. melissa: the concerns about it moving to a major city? >> any city with a huge

population flying out of nigeria, senegal, any of those places where we see these issues happening is bound to happen. this virus takes 21 days. somebody asked me how long will it take to get under control? you have got to wait 21 days since the last patient was infected. on day 20 see another body you are back where you were again. that is shameful about the president not coming sooner for is this. i am really upset about it. melissa: turning back to the markets, the dow is in record territory as investors gear up for tomorrow's 2:00 p.m. eastern fomc statement, we have it live on twitter followed by news conference from janet yellen, nicole petallides on the floor of the stock exchange. shares of pandora catching my attention. what is going on? nicole: you see stock coming out of the read into -- this is
