4:00 pm
of days, raul castro attending masses at which the pontiff was the leader of. we see on the other hand, a full, all-out welcome in the united states. this is something anticipated by everybody in the east coast. unfortunately, the pontiff is not going to make it outside of the northeast of the united states. he's going to be in philadelphia, washington, d.c., and new york. just those three cities. charles: he has an absolutely jam-packed schedule. the pope landing in washington, he's going to meet with the president and congress, he's going to hold mass before heading to new york city on thursday for the u.n. general assembly. we'll have a great panel to talk about all of, this we're waiting to see him come out. >> we are indeed. his trip already not without controversy in the united states. one member of congress boycotted. he's a roman catholic catholic of congress. boycotting the pope's statement
4:01 pm
in front of a joint session of congress because some of what the pope said about climate change and other things. generally speaking, it is a nonpolitical event. he has gone into areas that previous popes have not gone into in terms of focusing on public policy regarding climate change, regarding income distribution, et cetera, but for the most part, if you judge by his sermons, a couple of which i saw over the weekend from cuba and yesterday as well, and this morning, in fact. he gave one on the eastern coast of cuba, very beautiful homilies that focused on what we all have in common rather than what divides us. >> we're also hearing a little behind the scenes for you at home that president obama and vice president biden both running a little bit late and the pontiff's plane circled a few times before coming down. >> we had a producer who spotted the plane on a radar system that we have access to
4:02 pm
through the internet. we could see it circling at least twice as soon as it got over the carolinas, because of anticipation, not of his arriving too early but of his receptors arriving too late. >> yes. >> that's not uncommon. >> as we sit and wait for him to emerge, bring in our panel with us. we have fox business' own liz mcdonald, father dominic leg is a teacher at the dominican house of students, and dr. jay richards is an economics professor at catholic university of america, dan heninger from the "wall street journal" is with us, and tom ruskin, former nypd detective. and tom, start with you, this is a big responsibility and a lot of security especially given all the concerns that we've seen around security in this country in the past however many years, since 9/11 and beyond, tom? >> it is incredible security
4:03 pm
task that the secret service and the local police departments are undertaking to move the pope from one location to the other. andrews air force base is probably one of the most secure places for him to land and disembark in the united states, the place where the president and other heads of state and the vice president take off from routinely. so that's a good place to bring him into, but as far as moving him from there, it is a tremendous security detail. >> father leg, why does this pope seem to communicate so much hope, so much warmth, so much inclusion for catholics and for others? for all christians, for all americans who are religious people around the world? what does he do so well to communicate that? >> well, i think one of the things that we see as he lands in the united states is his love of people, and he really does warm up to people and
4:04 pm
connects with people in a very personal way. just on a personal level there's that appeal, but he also has something to say to people, and the message that he brings is one that is very hopeful, he brings a message of love, he brings a message of mercy. he calls people to aspire to something greater, a spiritual life, a life with god. that's something in our times, not enough people here, and so to bring a message of real spiritual joy as a messenger of the gospel, that's i think the way he sees his mission. >> liz mcdonald has been following the catholic church as a scholar and a journalist for many years and, in fact, liz, you and i remember covered the funeral of mother teresa. this is a man who has a business, the pope does. he's in the business of bringing souls to the catholic church, that's what he does. how is he doing? ing. >> a lot of people say he's doing a terrific job.
4:05 pm
4:06 pm
[ cheers and applause ] >> as the crowd begins to die down, we see the pope shaking the hands of the two daughters of the president and first lady. i believe that's michelle's mother as well, i believe that is, and vice president joe biden are here. this is, melissa, going to be a friendly visit. there's been some controversies as to guests invited to the white house for the visitor. i think both of these guys appreciate each other, don't you? >> absolutely. and i think that is one of the real charms and the real talents of this pope in particular, is that he does speak his mind and does say things that are unexpected, but at the same time, he communicates such love and such warmth that you see this joy surrounding him, i think wherever you go no matter what perspective you're coming from,
4:07 pm
no matter what religion you're looking at this, from this is a moment of joy. >> that was the archbishop of washington, d.c., various archbishops and bishops from around the washington community and others have been flown in. elizabeth mcdonald, i cut you off for the president of the united states. you can understand why. >> absolutely. >> but we were talking about judging this particular pope. of course, he hasn't been pope that long. by his success and bringing people to the catholic church, whether they were lacks catholics or protestants, he seems to be successful at drawing their attention. >> want to bring your attention to a striking thing the pope just did, he removed the palio, the skullcap that the pope wears, that to me and to many watching is a sign of humility, that he's a man of the people, he is down to earth. the joy of meeting new people
4:08 pm
and embracing them. she really wants to get out into the crowd which is why he does not want to ride in the enclosed popemobile, as it's been jokingly called. it was enclosed after pope john paul ii had the attempted assassination attempt on his life. but the pope has done away with that. you can imagine that the security is going to be ramped up because this pope wants to get into the crowds, he wants to be with the people. >> dr. richards, what's your reaction to that? how meaningful is that? it gets more dangerous it seems every day to take those chances, but we have a long history in this country of, you know, things happening during those sorts of business and mingling with the crowd. >> absolutely, he is a man of the people and precisely why he's so popular. there is a competing tendancey. he'd love to be down in the crowd. he'd like to do that at catholic university tomorrow
4:09 pm
afternoon, but the reality is this is a real security risk, and the secret service is taking it very seriously, washington, d.c.s locked down, the campus is locked down. there is a trade-off, and i think ultimately we're going to see him protected because of the potential of disaster if something were to happen. >> dan heninger, we're a business channel, we watch everything involved in human life, and that's why we're seeing the pope visiting the united states, but there have been some business related comment of this pope that have been in contradiction to those views that we hold that the pope doesn't seem to see it that way, does he? >> no, he suggested that he thinks capitalism does erode the human spirit. this will be his first trip to the united states, three big cities, washington, new york, philadelphia, and possibly in
4:10 pm
touring around the way he does as we have been describing it, wading into crowds, talking with people. the pope may get the sense what a capitalist country like the united states is capable of producing. scale of the country which combines with the warmth of the teem people, and some ways the pope is here to bring us a message and possibly the united states may bring a message to the pope as well. >> interesting point. father leg, one of the great questions, we are wonder wag we're going to learn from the pope's visit, do you look tat in his wisdom and his age and how much he studied, do you think he has anything to learn from us? >> i think absolutely. this is the first time as you mentioned he's set foot on american soil, and it's enormously, it's going to make an enormous impression on him. to hear the roar of the crowd here, who could not be moved by that? but at the same time, when you
4:11 pm
look at pope and some of the things he said about the kind of popularity that he has achieved as pope. he was not really a likely figure to be the most popular when he walked out of the loge of saint peter's basilica when he spoke that night. he said don't chant pope francis, he said this in saint peter's square. he said don't chant pope francis, chant jesus is lord. he is trying to bring a message of the gospel to the united states. he'll be moved to see the way he is welcomed. >> and father, there is this flip, we were talking about it with dan heninger between material prosperity and spiritual prosperity. giving him the benefit of the doubt from my own perspective, i'm a free market fanatic, if you will. he talks about the fact that there could be, you could have material prosperity but have spiritual poorness, that is can you have all the money in the
4:12 pm
world and still be emotionally and spiritually poor, and if your only goal is to get money and more of it, no matter what the cost, you could be spiritually poor and end up with nothing. >> don't forget who the pope understands himself to be. he is an emissary of christ. if you read the gospel, jesus says blessed is the poor in spirit for the kingdom of heaven is theirs. >> he says the poor in spirit, again, i love that jesus actually said that, the poor in spirit, rather than materially poor. you can have money and still get into heaven, right? >> i agree with what you just said. one of the things that is very interesting contrast in the pope coming from cuba to the united states is that in cuba he was present in one of the last remaining communist countries, and there, interestingly, he made a real critique of communist or
4:13 pm
socialist ideology, and what he said is we must not care for others or the government cannot love you, only your neighbor can love you. and that's the basis of real christian charity. a system we have in the united states where there is an opportunity for people to make a living, and even to find real, is but hopefully also to recognize that that wealth is also to give something back and to be in fact caring for your neighbor. >> dr. richards, maybe it's more accurate to say he has words of wisdom and warning, no matter what economic system you're coming from. whether he is warning of the ills of the system in cuba to capitalism rather than viewing it as so many have as an attack on capitalism. it's more words of how everyone is improve what they're doing. >> i think that's absolutely right. he is going to see a marked contrast between the remaining
4:14 pm
communist country off the east coast and the united states despite degrading economic news is high up on the index of economic freedom. but his experience in argentina is not one of capitalism, not one of the free market. argentina ranks 159th out of 178 on the index of economic freedom for 2015. so my hope is he'll see some of the bright side of both capitalism of american life and that we will hear what he is here to say. his message is not primarily political or economic. he is a preacher of the gospel, and i hope he has a chance to articulate that and i hope the media will emphasize it. >> dan, we already have democrats coming out with public video messages to the pope saying please, come on our side, take up our cause on climate change. income redistribution, et cetera. do you think he'll listen or respond to it in any way? >> he's going to talk about it at the united nations. i think david you put your
4:15 pm
finger on something here. there are certain risks for the pope in this visit to the united states, because he is involved himself in political issues like climate change, income inequality and there are people who have agendas, whether they're at the white house or the united nations or i saw commercial on television last night featuring the pope in the midst of a climate change ad that was funded by the environmentalist tom steyer. so i think the pope has to be careful not to get too close to these politicians or they'll try to pull him into what they're trying achieve, and i think that poses some risk to his moral authority. >> emac, i think he is too clever to be co-opted. >> interesting point. here's the thing, the congressman from arizona, republican congressman paul gosar says we don't want the church to be guilting people into left wing policies, that's why he's sitting out the speech. he's not going to go.
4:16 pm
father robert siricto said the church is not an economic think tank. at the pope's joy of the gospel, his encyclical, he never mentions capitalist or capitalism or capital. he mentioned free markets once. he's talking about corruption in any system of government, whatever the ideology is, he is not breaking with vatican church principles of rejecting marxism and communism and socialism, the point is, the peeling is the pope should come out with his own encyclical saying these types of economies are really corrupt and really ruin the standard of living for people on this earth as six prior popes have done since the late 1800s. >> dr. richards, one of the problems while i think he will resist the attempt by politicians to pull him in, some of what he said does have political relevance, particularly when it comes to climate change, and specifically when it comes to the role of the government in climate change.
4:17 pm
i remember the old soviet union was one of the most polluted places on earth. china, anybody who's been to beijing or shanghai knows you can barely see your hand in front of your face because of the pollution. countries where the government is in control of the economy generally do a terrible job at regulating pollution and climate change issues. so the idea that the government should be hard on the private sector in order to get good pollution control is contrary to experience. >> i think that's exactly right. there's this thing called the environmental curve, you get a country where the percapital income gets to a certain level and people are willing to bear the cost of environmental cleanup. air in the united states is much cleaner than china or cuba or the former soviet union. i think the pope would be interested in listening to the debates. he has said strong things about
4:18 pm
climate change, catholics agree to disagree with him on the questions of climate policy, of course, i do think he'll be working to avoid being co-opted by the details of american electoral politics. that's not what he's here are. >> thanks to all of you. i think some of you are sticking around. we didn't get to talk on the subject of security as much. 90% of the world's leaders coming here to new york city. >> we should mention the united nations, this is the normal time when the united nations comes in, all of the world leaders from the u.n. are here at the same time that the pope is going to be traveling between new york and washington and philadelphia. so you're right. >> we have a lot more to get to here. >> in the meantime, the volkswagen cheating scandal expanding to 11 million vehicles, but this isn't the first time carmakers have been caught fudging emission tests. the latest when we return. >> also, hillary clinton with a bold plan for drug makers. might make your prescriptions more expensive though. so who's right on this issue? we'll debate it.
4:19 pm
>> why getting morning coffee got a heck of a lot easier? stay with us for that one. at mfs investment management, we believe active management can protect capital long term. active management can tap global insights. active management can take calculated risks. active management can seek to outperform. because active investment management isn't reactive. it's active. that's the power of active management. but it is not the device mobithat is mobile, it is you.
4:20 pm
you drop 40 grand on a new set of wheels, then... wham! a minivan t-bones you. guess what: your insurance company will only give you 37-thousand to replace it. "depreciation" they claim. "how can my car depreciate before it's first oil change?" you ask. maybe the better question is, why do you have that insurance company? with liberty mutual new car replacement, we'll replace the full value of your car. see car insurance in a whole new light.
4:22 pm
. >> all right, you are looking at live pictures right now. is that the car that you would expect to see him riding in? >> so difficult. i think he's in a volkswagen! is that a small little car? it's certainly not one of the big limousines and certainly not the pope mobile. but it be fitting what the pope -- it's a fiat, of course it's not a volkswagen. italian pope came in alitalia, they put him in a fiat. >> isn't that incredible? that picture is it in a nutshell. what the pope is all about. he doesn't want to make a big scene.
4:23 pm
he's making a big scene anyway, but in a small little way. >> it's interesting, though, this must be giving nightmares to his security detail. so typical of this pope. i know we have friends working with the pope now who used to work for fox news, greg burke working for the secretary of state at the vatican. trying to be a man of the people gives nightmares to the security forces over there, and i'm sure our secret service over here, look at that. obviously, those windows are not the kind of secured windows we're used to seeing on limousines carrying world leaders. >> i'd love to see how much leg room there is. doesn't seem like a whole lot. >> you have to have faith in the fiat. you have to have faith in the italian cars! >> and the crowd is going wild. i wish we had tom ruskin to talk about the security, that is one of the biggest security concerns. >> it is. this is a guy who loves to work the crowds. he doesn't do it like a politician, he does it like a pope.
4:24 pm
he loss of the people. absolutely loves them and doesn't just like the press, the flesh and the handshake, he likes to surround himself and hug. it is going to be the most challenging detail that our security forces have ever had. i don't think we've ever had a challenge like this in the midst of what we're going through worldwide with terrorism. >> absolutely. especially when you look at various legs of the tour and we've looked closely at the one near us and you have him traveling through central park. he is going to be meeting and greeting crowds and while we have u.n. here. >> he's going to be at madison square garden, central park, at ground zero, and that is just new york. so it is going to be a busy trip. we're very pleased to have him and you as well. we wanted to bring you as much of the pope coverage. doesn't happen every day. >> no, it doesn't. >> thank you for your patience on that. coming up, from secretaries
4:25 pm
4:28 pm
melissa: the emissions crisis for volkswagen. the german automaker admitting that as many as 11 million cars may be affected by the cheating scandal. our very own jeff flock is here with the latest this is an incredible story, jeff. >> reporter: melissa, i'm in front after dealership here in evanston, illinois. they're putting a facade on this dealership. new one. that is apt metaphor for what volkswagen is dealing with. the stock, u.s. version of that, down 15% today. in europe the stock closed down 20%. they have lost a third of their market cap in the last two days, pretty incredible but this might help them. here at fox business we've been reporting we learned this isn't the first time an automaker has been charged with a similar crime. take a look. back in 1998 honda and ford both
4:29 pm
paid millions of dollars of settlements to the u.s. government for installing similar defeat devices on their cars to beat the epa. earlierer gm setted up with the government. $45 million fine for installing devices on 500,000 cadillacs. that may help, martin winter korn, ceo of vw. he is board meeting he is trying to survive. today i issued another apology. he is truly sorry. wanted to make formal apology for customers what he called misconduct. all in in addition to bringing vw stock down has hurt u.s. automakers stock. even though ford told fox business today they do not use he defeat devices on their cans now. fiat chrysler issued similar statement. they lost 6%. gm is down 8%.
4:30 pm
this story keeps on getting bigger, melissa. we'll keep watching it. melissa: jeff, thank you for the report, jeff. david: fiat will get a big bump with the pop driving around in a fiat in the united states. this is not good day for the wall street. this is three out of four bad days. it was a good day yesterday. when you have three days bad, one day good it is not such a great market. we should mention markets were down much more than they ended the day. they did make a comeback, not enough to erase big losses. at one point we're going down to 300 down on the dow. it recovered significantly in the last half hour of trading. so that was good news. again, melissa, i'm only suggesting maybe the pope had something to do with it. melissa: there you go. david: we can't guarranty that. melissa: hillary clinton moments ago unveiling a plan to to

4:35 pm
is, a distraction from the important work we have to do to combat climate change, and, unfortunately, from my perspective, one that interferes with our ability to move forward to deal with all of the other issues. therefore i oppose it. david: what? all right, hillary clinton by the way she is also in iowa, talking about drug companies and how in fact the government should get more involved regulating what they do. joining me to talk about all this, dan henninger, "wall street journal." alan colmes host of nationally syndicated "alan colmes radio show" on fox news radio and. dan, keystone pipeline, you have to speak out on this one way or the other. finally is opposed to it. what are your thoughts? >> i guess my first thought that settles the question whether hillary presidency would be the second coming of bill clinton's presidency or barack obama's. we're not going to see bill clinton type of presidency
4:36 pm
again is you said this before. almost more like what bernie sanders would do than what barack obama would do? >> that's the point. hillary is under tremendous pressure from bernie sanders and left. the group very upset about this is the private unions, the unions thought it was going to get those jobs at the keystone pipeline was going to be built. i think those votes are no now going to be in play. joe biden, if he gets into it will not come out in favor of keystone. they thought there might be some union support for joe biden. i think those people now are up for grabs and could go over the republicans. david: michael, the whole question whether she will make it easier or more difficult for businesses to do business in america. coming out of recession this is only time in my lifetime we've come out of recession and raised taxes and had more regulations than we did before. so it appears, when you add this in to what she is doing right now, she is in des moines, iowa speaking about new drug plan
4:37 pm
making it more difficult for drug companies to have more interference what they do, will she make life more difficult or easier? >> she will make life difficult for american patients. she thinks you can make health care more affordable. make drugs more affordable having government force down prices. got news for you, mrs. clinton, if you want to have the government force down drug prices you will have to say no to seniors and block their access to drugs. good luck with that, mrs. clinton. if the purpose here is to make drugs more widely available, reduce the costs, what you need is more competition. that is the antithesis of mrs. clinton's approach and obamacare approach. i think this new drug plan is basically admission obamacare is not making health care more affordable. david: alan, do you think drug companies make too much money? >> in some cases, yes. david: how would you define that, too much money. >> former hedge fund guy take an
4:38 pm
aids drug in regular use that cost 13.50, to $750. david: that is drug for 99 people out of country 300 million. like for example, pfizer. do you know what their profit margin is? >> well i don't know. david: it is 22%. >> i don't know profit margins of individuals. david: do you know what the profit margin of apple is? 39%, do you think if apple has a profit margin twice as big as pfizer maybe apple is making too much money. >> if one person make as decision that a drug people need can cost that much money i don't care whether 99 people or 1099 people or 1,099 people shouldn't be allowed. david: it is bad companies make too much money. >> if people have access they shouldn't struggle to get need he had medication, dan, that is the question, philosophical question. what is better for america. it is better if some companies making too much money according to some definition's too much
4:39 pm
money or too little money? >> not just pfizer of the world. discovery of cancer these are very expensive biological drugs initiated by startups. those companies have no possibility attract capital needed if hillary clinton imposing price controls. david: we would not have some of the life saving drugs now that, in the future because we would put limits on it? >> many, fewer of them. just be so difficult. peter thiel, founder of paypal said biologicals is probably the most risky evident investment he is wear of. they would become more risky if she would go through. david: gentlemen, leave it with that. gentlemen, thank you. melissa: how carly fiorina's time in the c-suite will impact her chances landing in the overoval office. who will cash in during the pope's visit. technology empowers us to achieve more.
4:40 pm
it pushes us to go further. special olympics has almost five million athletes in 170 countries. the microsoft cloud allows us to immediately be able to access information, wherever we are. information for an athlete's medical care, or information to track their personal best. with microsoft cloud, we save millions of man hours, and that's time that we can invest in our athletes and changing the world.
4:43 pm
david: news we brought you moments ago, hillary clinton announcing she is opposed to keystone pipeline after months of straddling the fence. her opponent bernie sanders weighed in with this tweet. quote, i'm glad hillary clinton finally made a decision on the keystone xl pipeline and i welcome her opposition. melissa. melissa: as presidential candidate carly fiorina continues to climb in the polls, record as ceo faced serious scrutiny. here she is last night on "the late show" taking pride in her career accomplishments. >> i learned everything in my life people have god-given gifts. i type started as secretary, typing for a nine-person real estate firm. only this country you can go from being a secretary to chief technology of the largest tech company in the world. it is only possible here. i want to make sure -- [applause]
4:44 pm
melissa: let's bring in our panel. fox business's liz macdonald. byron york, chief political correspondent for "washington examiner" and noelle nikpour, republican strategist. i covered carly during this period. it was messy. it was very messy. >> it was really messy. hp's sales were flat-lining during the tech boom. then the tech bubble burst. melissa: right. >> but the merger they wrote off $24 billion of merger stock swap. hp shares were dead money for 10 years. hp shares plummeted 62% on carly's watch. nasdaq cumulatively down 25%. did hp come out ahead eventually? yes. tough sledding but profits eventually rose and sales went up. melissa: byron, i feel like in the larger political world people don't hear any of that noise. we could talk and parse her
4:45 pm
record until the cows come home and bring out people from hp who didn't like her and complain about her. most of america sees is a woman ceo who made this incredible rise as she said from being, a secretary, filing to being this tremendous business superstar. is that what people hear? >> well, certainly, what people heard at the debate other night, fiorina more than any other candidate has very concise, substantive way of talking that has been appealing to virtually everybody who hears her. i think the bigger problem with hp politically with her record that they laid off 30,000 people. that was the thing that was used against her when she unsuccessfully ran for the senate from california. look for that to come up in the republican primaries. certainly if she made it to a general election. melissa: noelle, how do you spin that? that is one of those things having been in the california at the time i see how californians
4:46 pm
respond because they remember a little too well situation with hp. around the rest of the country, so much time has upon by, feels like she owns, i'm a ceo. i had to make tough decisions. we had to lay off a lot of people. we saved the company. she spins that pretty well? >> well, you know, i looat it this way, hp will be her achilles' heel. if you notice she has been attacked for her record on and off with hp. when she goes to the debate she is excellent communicator. she gets her message out well and people really like her because she is a you can not rock her. she does better after each debate. she has been bumping up, bumping up. next debate i look for her to probably surpass trump. she can get by the hp keeps staying steady on her message and defend good point, good position she did at hp. she will have to stay on message and defend the good points at hp.
4:47 pm
