he's on the show today. and it's jam packed. "varney & company" starts right now. ♪ first, of course, we take a look at the dow futures, up there a little bit. earnings began last night, not too great. alcoa was something of a dud. we're in the shadow of 18,000, what will it take to get there? we'll talk about it, the opening bell is 9:30. the alcoa shares i talked about are lower after reporting a big bottom line, but top line miss wall street no longer accepts and that's why the stock is under pressure now. oil, around that $40 a barrel number. and you've got a big opec number with russia. we could have big news there. donald trump taking on hillary clinton, roll tape. >> hillary clinton does not have the judgment to be president. her decisions, they have been

so baden a they've been so wrong, i so look forward to running against, getting rid of these guys, and running against hillary. her whole life has been a big fat beautiful lie. let's see how she does, we don't want to waste a lot of time, a lot of people say there's no way she can escape the e-mail scandal. >> and carl higby and you're a big trump surrogate and of course, ashley webster. all right, so, yeah, i know you love him. there are a lot of polls including one from ap where hillary beats trump in every category, including the economy and barely on jobs. there's a long time between now and november, but what's the game plan for donald trump to beat hillary clinton. >> several months ago the same polls put him down and not the frontrunner. >> he is the frontrunner, and i

don't know that we can say unknown seven months ago and equate it to a known quantity. >> he hasn't started on hillary clinton, this is the beginning now and it's fantastic. you watch, he's unleashed attacks on every person and they've fallen. and he's going after her. >> what do you think kat? >> i'm impartial. >> could you be swayed? >>'s right about hillary, saying bad judgment we've all made bad decisions. >> we weren't secretary of state. >> that's true. >> her saying that she made bad decisions is what she uses herself as a defense, saying, oh, you know, i guess i did the wrong thing. the alternative is, she's a criminal and should be in prison. so if you're saying the most positive thing you can say about your behavior is i made a bad decision, that's not good. ashley: to me, it's like, i should have left earlier and now i missed the bus.

>> to paraphrase president obama, there's classified and classified and there are mistakes and there are mistakes. new poll numbers showing donald trump leading here in new york, what are those. >> boy, is he ever leading here. check out the numbers, 54%, this is the latest nbc maris poll, kasich, and then ted cruz with the new york values 18%. and you know, of course, donald trump needs to get back on-line after the big drubbing in wisconsin. do we have the democratic side, this is interesting, too, here we go, hillary clinton 55%, bernie sanders 41%, hillary doing well among women, african-americans and democrats over the age of 45. >> there's an interesting survey, the black population

are for hillary and trump wins and two different reasons. next one, trump's children, eric and ivanka will not be allowed to vote for their father, and they didn't register for the republican party in time. >> they're so grounded. it's embarrassing, kind of an oversight. and just having a baby, but you can register way ahead of time. you don't forget that your dad is running for president. that's something you remember. >> what you say is this is sort of underscores some of the disorganize within the trump campaign? >> i wouldn't call it disorganize, the fact that, look, they had two kids. >> but their dad is running for president. >> running a campaign and they have to register in october, so i'm sure the last thing on their mind at that time was registering. >> i give them a pass and say they've done a lot more than what characterizes one vote so they've done a lot more for him than that. >> set an alarm on your phone, that's what i do.

>> if i run for president, my kids better be registered. i don't know if they will, but better. and joe biden playing to women, guys. roll this tape. >> this country is ready for a woman. there is no problem, we're going to be able to elect a woman. >> i would like to see a woman elected. that's all right, i'm not getting into that and-- >> aid he like to ask one more question. >> the president and i are not going to endorse because when we ran said let the party decide. >> all right, guys. >> at the same time he said a woman, he could have been talking about me, and not hillary clinton, he's not endorsing. it's a cop-out answer, i'm a single issue voter and i'm

against women, he can't say that. >> there was a tacit endorsement of hillary clinton and his aide came in and said-- we're done. >> it's incredibly sexist and say about anybody, well, because she's a woman, that's why. that's ridiculous. if you talk about her accomplishments if you want, talk about anything, but her gender. >> and the other thing is, too, hillary clinton has made a case, i'm a woman and it's sexist not to. and she stood by her husband's side-- >> and repeatedly accused of sexual assault. and she stood by his side, to put that out there, is null and void. >> and once joe gets rolling. >> the joe biden gaffes, it's like a box set. enough time to get another disc in there. >> and bill deblasio is facing criticism for the facially charged joke-- >> i just have to say thanks

for the endorsement, bill. took you long enough. >> sorry, hillary, i was running on cp time. >>. >> jo like jokes like that. >> cautious politician time. >> oh snap! >> wait, am i like in a dream right now? i can't believe that actually happened. >> i think on the daily news it said skit happens. >> yeah, i had when i saw that, i thought maybe i was actually dreaming. >> can you imagine if trump said that or kasich or cruz said that. it would be a disaster. >> i will say this, i'm not an a defender of deblasio, but

he's married to a black woman and in the community saying if you're late, i'm running on cb time, it's not something off the cuff, even the guy from hamilton was in on it and it back fired. >> hillary is not funny and never been funny every time. >> inappropriate-- >> obviously, no republican could have gotten away with it. ashley: a double standard right there. >> a double standard, but words have multiple meanings depending who says them and how they say them. i don't know what republican could have gotten away-- certain words you say have more than one meaning. >> she got a lot of air time, don't let her get away with it. >> i'd rather hammer her on other issues important to me

and my family. >> and safety. >> speaking of safety, the zika virus, is turning out to be a lot scarier than expected. ashley, you've got the details. ashley: the c.d.c. at first kind of downplayed this, downplaying this particular virus since 1947 considered just a minor problem now the c.d.c. is having another look at zika virus, everything we look at with this virus seems to get a bit scarier than we originally thought. >> there are cases in the united states all traveled where the zika virus is, bitten and seven through sexual transmission. bottom line, i think that the impact, small brain birth defect, but it could cause blindness and others-- >> there's no vaccine, and that's the scary part. >> and passes on in 30 states in the united states.

>> by the way, check this out, a detroit tigers fan becomes a star because he couldn't catch one, two, three, four, no, he caught five foul balls in one game. >> what? >> he gave each to a kid around them during or after the game and the guy sits behind home plate, it was his day. hillary clinton, well, she's going after guns and blaming bernie sanders for the gun crimes in new york city and wants gun manufacturers to pay up. and she-- if there's a shooting anywhere, she wants the gun guys to pay for it. judge napolitano.

>> now, to politics. hillary clinton hitting the campaign trail yesterday blaming vermont guns for many of the violent crimes in new york. listen to what she said. >> most of the guns that are

used in crimes and violence and killings in new york come from out of state. and the state that has the highest per capita number of those guns that end up committing crimes in new york come from vermont. charles: all rise, judge andrew napolitano is here. she wants to pin the blame on gun manufacturers for shootings and deaths that results and wants to take serious action against them. >> she's profounding wrong about the guns coming from new york. it's a bit of an anomaly that bernie sanders, the arch lefty with guns, libertarian aspect is the ease with which you can carry a gun. i was giving a speech in vermont five years ago, i wrapped up the venue and the people wrapping up the venue,

do you want a gun for a day? a gun for a day? for $10, i declined because i thought i didn't need it. it shows you the ease. charles: i would have taken a gun and a cowboy hat. [laughter] >> back to her, the speech clip you just ran suggests that killings have occurred in new york because of guns that have come from vermont. there are no gun manufacturers in vermont. she's adding two plus two and getting 22. not surprising. but the impetus of the mover for the use of the program is like suing gm because the driver was involved in a dwi. there's no due process, there's no fairness, no connection between the manufactured product and its misuse by an ultimate owner. and in order to prevent people from doing that, congress

enacted legislation that said you can't sue the manufacturer for the misuse by the ultimate owner. you could sue the manufacturer if there's a defect in the design, but you can't sue them because somebody committed a crime with it. charles: you mentioned congress, is there anything in the constitution that prohibits a government from making this a law? in other words, if hillary clinton won the white house and democrats swept the house and senate, could she propose legislation that completely reverses that? >> she could propose the legislation, but-- ments -- a judge could not permit the imposition of liability without fault because you have to show fault, something that the manufacturer did wrong and making a gun is a protected activity under the constitution. so, there is no wrongness on the part of the manufacturer that contributed to the criminal use of the gun.

but to the left, which bunches all use of guns together. the lawful use of guns for self-protection and the unlawful use of guns to commit crimes, it makes sense because of votes. they don't care-- >> they always blame the gun, it's never the person that pulls the trigger. >> by that theory, we will be eating steak with our hands because we won't be able to eat steak niefknives. >> wait, you're not supposed to do that? now i know why he didn't call me. charles: university students can't sing along to rihanna songs if they're white, sorry, kat. it's called microaggression. also, leeza gibbons on the real donald trump. she worked with him on the apprentice and beat our boy, and now she's on varney, we'll be back in a few. you both have a

perfect driving record. >>perfect. no tickets. no accidents... >>that is until one of you clips a food truck, ruining your perfect record. >>yup... now, you would think your insurance company would cut you some slack, right? >>no. your insurance rates go through the roof. your perfect record doesn't get you anything. >>anything. perfect!

>> that's right, one of our readers happens to be in that class as a student and she sent me the official white privilege checklist and-- >> and that-- . number one, i am white. and here is the thing, they have 100 questions and i scored 110 so i think i got the extra credit. [laughter] >> here is the gist of it. if you're white and singing songs like rihanna music then you're actually appropriating someone's culture and that's a microaggression. and what's shocking about this, this is happening in a human resources class. charles: right. >> these folks that are taking this information, that are learning here, are going leading our hr departments in the next five to ten years. charles: and kat, umbrella that-- >> i would think that telling white people to essentially boycott black music would be racist. i would think that that would be a bad thing and not--

i think this is insane, right? can i dance to it? because sometimes i really like-- >> the big question here. >> i mean not well. >> i can snap my fingers. charles: that means if i were to break out to, let's say the devil went down to georgia for a soul to steal, that would be-- >> that's a good one there, charles. and they also had a microaggression section and that was probably more troubling. they gave some case studies and all of the studies they gave were considered to be microaggression, including a statement that went like this, i believe that traditional marriage is between a man and a woman, i respect your opinion, but that's what i believe. that statement right there would be considered microaggression in this class. charles: really? what's the purpose then overall. ashley: what about free speech? >> if your biggest problem is me singing a rihanna song, you are so lucky, you are so lucky

you never had a real problem. >> and i think, look, by the way, a lot of the companies are getting ready for their big summer picnics. if you're white, maybe steer clear of jay-z, maybe do donny and marie, burt bacharach and-- >> be careful, a lot of burt's songs are sung by dionne warwick and-- this is not unique, this is probably a proxy for universities in general. >> i talked to the student and she said a lot of this came about after last year, they had some incidents on campus, racial incidents involving some fraternities and now it's overkill, just about every class is going something like this. charles: i'll take the test and see how much privilege i have. this, is united states no longer the best place for the american dream? believe it or not that's according to an official from the federal reserve. he says you've got to go to denmark or canada and this is

exactly what he says. we've got scott shellady the guy here, and look at that poster, and coined by old boy scott shellady and you said the market is off the hook-- he's not here yet, but it will be here for the opening bell, i love that poster. ♪ feeling sad, just remember that ♪ ..

charles: opening bell ringing 5 seconds and. we had big sessions to the upside, 150 points, earnings season has begun. maybe this time the market will have traction, the dow up 17, 18 points. let's bring in ashley webster, scott shelley, opium mcbain, mike murphy. what will it take to get back over 18,000. we know it is earnings season. is it going to be enough? let me start with you, scott. >> no. every economic indicator we have had since december 16th, almost all of them have been disappointing to really disappointing. a few have beaten, but at the

end of day we have borrowed demand from five years forward and brought it to present value and it hasn't sparked the economic engine. that is the problem. slowly but surely, last year we were buying this, now it is a rally and that muted anything that looks good for the upside. we will have a floppy market until the election is over so we will be down high days, coming back by end of session. charles: here is the thing. the bad news is a rough earnings season. the good news is it is going to be a rough earnings season. it is not bad when the bar is set this low. >> they have walked earnings down a lot. what has gotten hurt the most that has the most upside are the financials. if you look at bank earnings starting tomorrow in answer to the question of what can push the dow above 18,000, if we get good reports out of bank of america, bank of america,

jpmorgan can carry the dow higher. look at the short interest. we have the highest short interest that we have had since 2009. that can help. charles: i did dabble in some gold yesterday but i am afraid of the big banks. take a look at this. scott shelley talking about how markets are hooked on opium, graphics department did a great job. i want an autographed copy of it. give us the ingredients for hopium. >> football or baseball, we can't have part of the business plan in hope. we are at the bottom of the barrel. we are hoping they can spur economic activity with negative interest rates or zero interest rates and it is not working. when you do that, when you pull forward demand in the hopes you speak an economic engine and you

don't spark an economic engine what do you have left? that is the problem. we pull forward this demand in the hope we will spark an economic engine and it hasn't worked. that is what we have been living on but there is nothing behind it to raise these prices. charles: for a long time bad news was good news but i think that game is played out. we need good news. how do you measure good news? >> we are looking for good news. it is the entire global economy. you have central banks trying to stimulate the economy globally, some of it is working and some of it is not working but when you look at the us although we don't have massive growth we have growth in the us. good news is good news was we need earnings to pick up in the market. charles: on friday the atlanta fed, first-quarter gdp, 0.1%.

all right, quicklook at oil above 40, that is the magic number. one thing to look at, gold near the highs of the year. are those conflicting things, gold being up and oil being up? be change let's look at an oil chart, it is much lower than it was last year so oil being around 40 is a fair price. a lot of what is behind gold is international investors willing to take a risk that gold will be unchanged or higher next year rather than put money in a bank that they will get less back at the end of the year. charles: back to what could be a really ugly earnings season, uglier than what we have been bracing for. we had a big drop. the bottom line, top line, the street punishing them. give us more details. nicole: the outlook is weaker than expected. net income dropped 92%, stock is down 4%, big loser here, over

one year down 30%. quarterly profits dropped 92%. demand overall is falling, forecasts consumption, they lowered that, chinese demand, those are basics, the company is splitting in the second half of the year but right now under major pressure. charles: what we check every day, google, amazon, netflix, microsoft, take a look at hp no longer the number one pc company, it has been taken over by dell. that happened years ago. don't forget apple, baron's was on yesterday saying it had potential for 1 $15. do you agree? >> potential? it does. it is trading at a low multiple. i don't see a near-term catalyst. when i look at apple i see the big cash condition, i look at that negative because you won't

put multiple on that cash. for apple to get to 150 they need a new innovative product, new ipod, new ipad, new iphone. before they are victims of their own success. >> i think so. charles: do you want to tell us about breaking news? >> a new product for apple. we expect a new phone later this fall. analysts are looking for serious innovation, different material, so far no specifics at apple. charles: let's take a look at starbucks, typically unstoppable company but today deutsche bank downgraded to a hold. i think you like starbucks. >> i spend a lot of money at starbucks. in reading the note from deutsche bank they talk about valuation and not being able to see multiple expansion. if you apply that thesis to starbucks any time over the last we 10 years you have gotten pretty badly beaten. i look at the momentum on

starbucks, great performer with a great product. >> interesting news out of starbucks, florida person ordered a fancy drink and got a sticker to put your name on, it said diabetes here i come. this is a person in florida who ordered a white chocolate mocha, 470 cal, 50 g of sugar, 21 g more than the regular daily recommended value. charles: the customer -- >> starbucks apologizing. charles: the chief economist says a good possibility that great britain will leave the european union. ashley: part of this is fueled nationalism. the attacks from isis on the main continent in europe leading to a wave of anti-yibbidydib, they go to the polls saying if that happens it could deal with what they say is a damaging blow to the global economy. forget the uk's relationship

with the e.u. it will have higher taxes on its trade but there is a center in the e.u. we don't want new regulations from brussels. it will be very tight. charles: years ago, had to go to brussels to discuss the military options, that is a problem. they were brilliant -- 50/50 on the e.u.. i want to look at nike, kobe bryant, liked him a lot. the stars keep coming out. they are in a nike ad honoring him. jo ling: you see a bunch of nike, people with contracts with nike endorsing him, lebron james, tiger woods, serena williams, commemorating who he is and not just saying he is a great player but how annoying or persistent or how tough a competitor he has been on the court and off the court.

nike not moving on this news. charles: he is a real cool dude, second best player in history. the dow jones industrial average up 52, friday abscission yesterday's session, get a little momentum but something happens midday. we will keep watching that and then there is this. bernie sanders proposes a big ban on fracking. ashley: sweeping legislation banning it across the country saying it is a serious threat to safe and clean drinking water, forget that the epa put out a report saying after five years of study there is no direct correlation to drinking water from fracking but this is contrasting his record with hillary who pledged to allow limited fracking. charles: did you start cheering

down there? >> absolutely not. be careful what you wish for. at the end of the day if they do what they want if obama is the number one gun salesman in the country maybe bernie sanders is the first person to export natural resources as far as energy goes. be careful what you wish for, i think it is ridiculous. charles: william dudley says america no longer is a place to achieve the american dream. ashley: income mobility, the ability to go from the bottom rung of the ladder to the top rung saying that is the american dream, anyone can reach the top. the probability of moving from the bottom to the top is 7.5% in the united states, 7.5% chance, 11.7% in denmark, 13.5% chance in canada and lists a whole list

of solutions to make it easier for people to make the move upward. transportation, access to affordable credit and so on. >> giving people in the lowest bracket, not giving them everything, giving them enough -- letting them be independent rather than having them depend on the government. charles: i have seen those things before. i did my homework too, millionaires or household, denmark 1.7, best companies to start a startup, us number 3, denmark number 5. there is a lot of data there. up next, a quarter of british muslims want to impose sharia law according to a new poll. some sympathizing with suicide bombers. that is next. remember this? mike piazzolla's home run after 9/11. that jersey is up, causing a lot of controversy. more varney next.

charles: mall that is more fallout from the panama papers, protesters calling for british prime mister david cameron's resignation. cameron says it is not a dirty word. >> wealth is not a dirty word, speaking specifically about the offshore account held by his family member exposed in the panama papers. he says there should be a right for families in the uk to be able to aspire to earn money and this account was held offshore, actually not for tax dodging. he is defending himself, he says large financial gifts to any children from offshore accounts should be proudly supported by the government. charles: didn't he in the past argue against things similar to this. don't know about this wealth

issue or hypocrisy being an issue with him. ashley: a little bit of both but he has spoken about it in the past. the appearance is not good. the optics not great. jo ling: it created a new debate in the uk. charles: denmark taking a hard line, convicting its own citizens for helping refugees. the senior advisor to the senate foreign relations committee. they are starting to change their whole tone toward migrants particularly the scandinavian nations, welcome with open arms. >> eight of the ten attackers were in iraq and syria and you see the brussels attackers coming through the greek isles on refugee vessels, a really disconcerting issue for europe and going back to europe it was a problem. charles: with respect to helping

them the e.u. gets the nuanced part, what constitutes helping someone, sheltering them, knowing them they are on the run but this is a huge change for denmark. >> we had material support charges if they are supporting terrorists, running money or funds, you are learning that lesson. when the threat comes home in a real way with brussels, they are taking action and they calibrate that action. charles: next would be face-to-face, numb 1000 muslims in the uk, overwhelmingly the majority loves living in the united kingdom but 25% wanted to impose sharia law and 4% sympathize with suicide bombers. what is your reaction? >> the notion of 4% of sympathizing with suicide bombers is troubling. there are positive things, 91%

said they come from the local community, 15% above the national average but that 4% is a troubling number and we have to find out what that is about. europe has a challenge integrating all sorts of minorities including muslims in particular. in the united states, our communities collaborate with the police, euro has to find a timeout. charles: a serious issue for a long time, europe's birthrate went down, needed to bring in people to fill that void but more importantly, the assimilation has been a disaster. who does it way more on? the powers that be or people, 91%, local communities, some people were calling colonies within countries, who is the onus on to make assimilation happen? >> it is both. the government has a role in bringing people together and at

the same time you can't come to a new country and make it your home. in america that is the rubric. we always integrate people coming in from the outside in our communities, people come here to be part of the american dream. europe has always been a lot more challenging. charles: really appreciate it. hot dogs, apple pie and baseball. footage from police in texas, watch as a thief swipes a wedding ring, this is cold-blooded, off a woman's cold dead finger. and flees the scene in a speeding car. the woman is still on the loose. the bible is on the list of books that are most objected to at public schools. right next to 50 shades of gray. more varney next.

state. letting us is father jonathan morris. i know there is a big atheist movement in this country and i understand where people are coming from with respect to church and state that this is mind-boggling, i don't get it. >> we should be happy we live in a country where people can object to what is in our libraries. that is the most important thing. i'm very happy atheists can say we don't want the bible. but we need people with common sense to say one thing is for you not to wanted and another is for there to be intellectual openness and tolerance for all. not just for the bible but other books as well. that is what we are losing in the country if we stand up and say enough is enough. you can have your point of view but can't tell other people what they want to read. charles: we are talking big news for higher learning, public schools, libraries, where young people are supposed to go and open their minds and be like blank slates they fill and make a decision later.

someone is trying to manipulate the system where they prejudge the bible. >> what is happening here is individual organizations, atheist organizations have organized better than most of us. it -- no way it could happen in the united states of america that a bible could be banned from a public library or a school but it is happening because they have organized themselves and are organizing themselves around a principle that isn't in our constitution. a supposed separation of church and state which doesn't allow people to express their religious views openly. what they are saying is there can't be a public institution that in any way allow the name and voice of god or religion in general to be expressed. that is not in our constitution. our constitution, founding document talked about two simple things about religion. one, we know the free exercise clause that no law should be

passed by congress to stop people from exercising their religion and secondly the establishment clause, the government should not prefer one religion over another, it established a. and like there was, there is in the united kingdom. charles: i got to tell you, the battle for them never stops and it is never too big or too small. this one feels like a shot across the bow. thank you very much. >> real quickly, behind me is memphis, tennessee, where i am. driving to a neighborhood last night i asked somebody how much these huge houses cost, between 3 to 5 million. $300,000 to $500,000. i don't know why we live in new york city. charles: when you get back. >> there might be a commission. charles: bernie sanders when we come back, making a lot of news. ♪jake reese, "day to feel alive"♪

♪jake reese, "day to feel alive"♪

charles: charles payne in for stuart varney, one week to the new york primary, hillary clinton and bernie sanders holding events in the state at this hour, bernie in rochester, hillary in manhattan, the fight is on, hillary taking on sanders on gun control issues, sanders says he is the only candidate that can shut down the fracking industry. donald trump, new polls show him with a big lead in new york, ted cruz a distant third, he is taking the fight to california. a huge day for politics. we have it covered for you. our two starts right now. >> i am going to say a sentence that has not been set in 50 years. california is going to decide the republican nomination for president. charles: ted cruz out there rallying in california. a poll says might be 50%.

ashley: maybe it is his own people telling him that the california will be a decider, he means preventing donald trump more than anything else from getting the delegates. you are right, california has 172 delegates, an awful lot. according to his campaign he could be ahead by 55% to whatever trump is. i am not sure. charles: the last official paul, donald trump was at 39, he was at 31 or something like that. he was leading in some of those important counties. you know how comp located this stuff is. ashley: you need a degree from mit. before he is pushing hard. ashley: this could prevent donald trump getting the magical -- charles: imagine rethink the state count this year. a lot of excitement. we are near session highs, we have been starting very strong, this has been the script, can it

stay at this level, one thing you got to watch is oil sitting around $40 a barrel, gaining a little steam. and russia and maybe iraq to pull back a little bit. here is starbucks, they got a weird downgrade, deutsche bank downgraded the stock, taking a good chunk out of the stock down 2 points over 3%. alcoa reported earnings after the bell, on the top line and bottom line, the chief economist says it looks like there is a real possibility great britain will leave the european union. ashley: the last poll out of the uk, 42% to stay in the e.u. 45% to get out, 12% undecided, june 23rd, just around the corner. british prime minister david cameron is pushing hard to stay

in the e.u. because they got the concessions they wanted but the ims says if the uk gets out, market volatility will increase, trade will be damaged, economic growth undermined and right out of that david cameron not missing an opportunity, the imf says it too, a bad deal for britain. charles: these numbers change toward getting out after the last terrorist attacks. that unnerved -- charles: the nationalism is on the rise at the uk, they look at the migrant crisis and do not want to be part of that and terror attacks on the continent in france and brussels leading to this anti-e.u. sentiment. charles: hillary clinton going after guns. roll tape. >> you now have laws in the country prohibiting the centers for disease control which

conducts research on public health problems that cause death or injury from even examining what could be done to keep guns out of the wrong hands. that doesn't suggest to me that this is a very confident position that the gun lobby holds. charles: katie pavlovich is here. i guess she is trying to say she would like the cdc to have greater access to data on gun owners and things like that. >> what hillary clinton doesn't understand is gun control and studying gun violence is not a public health issue. 84% of the country believes crimes committed with firearms should be considered a criminal issue, not one of public health and when hillary says there is no ability for the cdc to study this issue she is lying. president obama in 2013 commissioned a study from the cdc to study what she is talking

about and the results of that study are contrary to hillary's position. the study showed self-defense is used and people who carry firearms are less likely to incur injury as opposed to other self-defense methods and also shows things like when you turn in your firearm to get money from the government, those types of programs are ineffective, i am for the cdc approving these studies. hillary clinton might be careful what she wishes for. charles: anything from the suicide angle, from the mental depression angle. >> she can but 84% with a significant amount considering the polarization of the country at this point, do not believe gun control or what they say is gun violence is a public health issue. it is a mental health issuance and circumstances but they do not believe it is a public health issue and the reason the cdc funding was cut in 1997 was

because the cdc was used as a political mobile in place for anti-gun politicians to park a bunch of taxpayer money to then study things that are not related to public health and so this isn't an issue the nra not wanting the cdc to study. it is an issue of keeping politics out of the centers for disease control especially when it comes to second amendment rights. charles: during the pentagon breathing and army general revealed the number of isis fighters in libya doubled in the past year. you have a piece out on this today. >> libya is becoming more of a isis stronghold as the president and hillary clinton continue to claim they have done a significant amount of work to stop isis from spreading. if you go back to when the intervention in libya occurred hillary clinton can be seen as secretary of state making europ

get there lack of action in their own areas has a direct effect on how we handle isis in the middle east, in northern africa and in the united states. charles: i want to bring in former ambassador to turkey james jeffrey and get your take on this, isis being able to hopscotch through the middle east and everywhere they go feel like there is no opposition, they grow like weeds.

>> that is a tendency of groups like isis. they are able to attract a lot of local support. overall in the region their support is way down among all groups of arabs and other muslims in the middle east but they are still able to find terrain where they can operate because these are ungoverned terrain in places like libya, somalia, yemen and elsewhere. that is one of the threats but the big fred is isis's army and state, that is where they are launching most of the attacks on europe and the united states. charles: president obama admitted libya, getting rid of qaddafi without a plan for when he was gone was his biggest mistake. people have different arguments what might be the biggest mistake but the fact they admitted as much, there would be a more proactive game plan to make sure they can nip this in the bud. do you see anything coming?

>> we won't see anything from this administration, the president is locked in for the rest of the term. as one who has been sent out to put things back together in the middle east, this is very hard work no matter how committed a president, congress and the american people are. it is not an easy thing. we have to do better, most importantly the entire stability and structure of the middle east are being shaken by these movements and reactions by iran, russia and other actors. charles: on that note i want to ask about he ran. they receive the controversial missile-defense system from russia, their own little program is not negotiable. what do you make of that? >> all of that is true. the russian delivery is a bad decision but not a violation of un regulations or un

resolutions. 's the irani and missile program is a violation of un resolution 2231 which was enacted to carry out the ran nuclear agreement. it is weak language. i looked at it this morning. the iranians keep violating the terms of that agreement and the rest of us look on. there have been minor sanctions by the us but no interest by other countries. we have to expect a ran is an expansionist aggressive state that is destabilizing the region just like isis. charles: only a couple seconds left but i want to squeeze this in. boeing is open -- would that be unpatriotic? >> businesses don't do unpatriotic things, governments do stupid things by allowing things like this to happen. charles: thank you, great stuff. bernie sanders targeting the fracking industry, he says he is

the only candidate who can stop fracking once and for all and we are talking to one of bernie's support is next. and a warning from the cdc that the zika virus is a bigger problem an anyone thought it was. details on that as well after the break. >> we have to be ready. everything about this scariest the business virus is scarier than we initially thought.

charles: look at juniper networks, very hot stock. disappointing profit and revenue forecast sending that stock down a lot. the biggest loser on the s&p. what is the biggest winner in the s&p? chesapeake energy has more ratings than any stock out there. riding hard, the bar limits was lifted to $84 billion, stock is on fire. a new warning that the zika virus is worse than previously thought. what has the cdc called for?

ashley: everything we look at with this virus seems scarier than we initially thought. that is troubling when it comes to the cdc. may be underestimating, 346 confirmed cases in the us. they know it is associated will believe strongly it is associated with small brain birth defects but also it could be responsible for premature birth, blindness in babies that have been reported, 7 of those cases the virus with sexually-transmitted. this is a healthcare that is gaining more momentum and also the mosquitoes that carry this virus, in 30 states. charles: a lot more. ashley: they said 12 initially. before bernie sanders and his backers going after the fracking industry. roll tape. >> i asked myself the question what can i as an individual do to stop the biggest most powerful industry on the face of the earth from destroying everything that i love and

everything that i know? the answer is, as an individual, not very much. fracking activism and climate activism and democracy is -- we are going to stop the biggest industry on the face of the earth and we are going to do it in spite of everyone saying it is impossible. two years ago, we banned fracking in the state of new york. charles: following josh fox's comments the campaign released a new anti-fracking ad narrated by susan sarandon. >> do washington politicians value holders over families? they pump millions into their campaign. bernie sanders is the only candidate for president who opposes fracking everywhere. why? because fracking dumps dangerous cancer-causing chemicals into the ground and friends our drinking water.

bernie, he can't be bought by them because he is funded by you. charles: come in, bernie sanders supporter, why the push against fracking so hard right now? >> bernie has been on the right side of this issue for some time. he is not new to this person. the person who is new to this issue is secretary clinton. bernie has been talking about fracking for a long time, the environmental concerns, the movement toward sustainable and renewable energy for some time. charles: everyone who looks at this and understand this understands tomorrow we won't have windmills on cars. having said that, the notion of taking away all the great american jobs to pay $90,000 a year because someone is worried about the planet warming up numb 1 ° more in 100 years. the average person, it hurts the average working man in america. >> senator sanders and the rest of us understand the concern but he put forward a plan, we know if we move towards this and it

will probably be a generational thing that won't happen overnight. charles: if he is president he would ban fracking immediately. >> we know fracking causes environmental problems which haven't we learned our lesson from flint? what happens when you poison a water supply, fracking has that potential. senator sanders has put forward a plan to ban fracking is going toward solar and wind and geothermal will create hundreds of thousands of jobs. charles: we spent millions, billions of dollars, toward the trillions if you add western nations trying to push alternative energy. it is not ready yet. it is not there yet. the solar plant in california they spent $3 billion on is not producing any of the energy they said it would. only employs 12 people. the myth of solar and wind taking over tomorrow was a farce. in the meantime you have working men and women who need these jobs, they need the construction jobs, they need the -- what about the money we save in this country not sending it overseas?

>> with fracking? obviously the renewable energy would all happen here as well. this is not something that will happen immediately overnight. this is a generational transitional thing. people can transfer to other jobs over time. it might take a generation but this is about a vision, saying what kind of country do we want to be? do we want a country that poisons our water or do we want to be the kind of country that moves forward? we have seen renewable energy, burlington, vermont, senator sanders's former town where he was mayor, is fully running on renewable energy. it is possible, not impossible. before i can tell you exxon mobil last year put out a piece, 47 pages they said every ounce of oil they have will be used because of global demand and the bottom line is you cannot fuel and economy without it. that is why china won't do what you are talking about and other countries because they want to be first rate economies. we can't fuel our economy if you heard fracking and fossil fuel industry anymore than it has

been heard. >> even senator sanders is not talking about eliminating fossil fuels altogether. it is about going more -- charles: hard to make it on bicycles. from the new york rally to the la rally. >> it is about turning this country into depending more on renewable energy and less on foreign oil, less on stuff that might destroy our environment and poison our water. before we would all like to see that and when they will happen but the notion of government forcing it today is a huge economic mistake. >> we can do it and senator sanders is the one to take us there. charles: new york giants cornerback eli manning putting his new jersey condo up for rent. $18,000 a month, don't you want to live where a super bowl champ lives? we will show it to you right after this.

eli manning affect? not sure. charles: should come by once a month and leave something, footballer something. charles: hillary clinton talking about equal pay so take a listen. >> i found as i went around the country, and it is important to make the point the failure to ensure equal pay for women impacts families and the broader economy. glassdoor is focusing on an issue -- charles: one of the key issues of equal pay for women, and the

boston globe publishing the fate front page, we see if trump became president, headlines you might see if socialist bernie sanders wins in november and a lot of top guys at the federal reserve say if you want to achieve the american dream you better move to denmark and canada. we will explain it all after this. this just got interesting. why pause to take a pill? or stop to find a bathroom? cialis for daily use is approved to treat both erectile dysfunction and the urinary symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently, day or night. tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and medicines, and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex do not take cialis if you take nitrates for chest pain,

..

charles: in the blink of an eye with a 75 points in the dow, trying to regain it right now. this could've happened earlier. i do find a way to sustain a rally to the close. we will keep watching for you. in the meantime, "the boston globe" posted a satirical joke edition with an imaginary term presidency. turning us today, peter marie c. emily carter. as always, ashley webster is with us.

peter, we did ask you to imagine the news headline for the bernie sanders president they and you came up with some views have got to tell you. u.s. millionaires flee to france. explain it. >> simply the french are trying to tax million or 75%. it didn't work out. a lot of millionaires have gotten up and left. hillary will do it. so i would suggest they move to the south of france and china sunshine and come back in three years. then return to normalcy. charles: that makes sense. if you're going to be taxed at the same way as france got me my cell have better food. >> hedge fund guy went to florida for similar reasons. next-line come another great one. s&p cuts u.s. bond rating to junk.

>> in order for bernie to keep all its promise, he's got a tax 200% of gdp, which is impossible. he's going to basically have to print a great deal of money, borrow a great deal of money and it will be impossible to maintain the fantasy. the charade that the u.s. has is the aa bond rating. they've got better beaches. your list is going to be a boom for the travel agent. all right. here's another great one. sanders defies the law of physics, spends 125% of gdp and free health care, college tuition, and veteran. how does he pull that off? >> think about it, the most expensive industries we have our health care and education. if he sent everyone for free, most young people will not find a job when they leave so they

will stay there forever. bremen ward, free eats, good lifestyle. you can do some soft drugs on the side and basically by the end of his presidency, the average 31-year-old will be in college and in order to sustain that, we will have to spend 125% of gdp. charles: i will throw another one in. spain. highly educated with no jobs. these were young people. >> of course. free things, css. you're ready for it. i know, ray. charles: finally, peter, dr. takes job as janitor says after tax paid does better. >> think about it. we tax everybody at 75% to 90% in order to provide the health care the british have come you have to pay american doctors believe british doctors are paid. instead of making 200,000 a year, the guys making 80. the pay 75% in taxes.

it pays to be a welfare model are simply be a janitor with a negative in contacts, food stamps and so forth. why work hard? you could be a fox host. that would work too, wouldn't it? charles: let's move on. 38% of voters say hillary clinton is more trusted on the economy than donald trump. 35% he gets on the trust of the economy. this is a pretty well-respected poll with a people. what do you make of that? >> all of the people saying how much more people trust hillary than donald trump. this particular issue, trump isn't doing so bad. charles: shouldn't he be winning on the economy? >> been a while, they haven't even started to go at each other yet. one of the things we are seen as trump starts to do better once he starts on the race. so they haven't really had --

>> a one-on-one race advocates personal with the issues, can you change these numbers? in other words, if he doesn't talk about his economic land, jobs plan and how he will work with congress, these numbers don't change. he can beat hillary by going to her personal distrust and shortcomings. >> i don't think so. the things donald trump needs to do is start garnering trust. he has got his support. he's got 35% number. he's got to get above that and he will have to do that. i'm not sure if it's by building policy, the coalitions. who does he surround himself with to show his trusted that he will have strengthened policy. ashley: he will be very familiar. charles: very interesting. she is beating him in every category. even jobs 36-35. you would think he would be way above her. senator bernie sanders coming

out strongly against cracking while campaigning in new york state. what you make of that? upstate new york and all these jobs, people couldn't get in because of actors and now bernie sanders one of taking an victory lap. >> i was educated in new york city and upstate and it's really two different states. in new york, this appeals very well in new york city because they expect the rest of the country to be an energy colony. upstate doesn't appeal so well, but it shows how much of an ideologue burning is. it's a political move to go in the western part of the state and say you are against fracking. there are people that don't have jobs that could have jobs because of the governors banned. charles: absolutely crazy crazy thing. i'm not sure if you guys saw this late in the day, hillary clinton in new york city mayor build up lazio got in trouble for a racial joke made during a clinton rally. roll tape. >> i just have to say, thanks

for the endorsement, bill. [laughter] took you long enough. [cheers and applause] >> sorry, hillary. i was running on cpu time. >> i don't like jokes like that. >> cautious politician time. charles: when you make of that one? >> someone when they were brought in this case had this to be a good one. >> i have no idea who they were riding up for. >> it didn't go well with that audience. >> can you imagine if you were donald trump, imagine if it were a republican candidate. this wouldn't be going that it's uncomfortable. there'll be protests in the streets. it's unbelievable they can do

this. charles: have you done dials on not? >> not on this particular thing, but you could. it would go to the floor and people would get angry. it would be interesting to see how you look at different candidate doing it. deblasio thinks he has the more license because he has -- is married to a black children. charles: probably thinks he's a moderate cardmember. ashley: but the comment was racist. charles: more than likely in new york city he will get a free pass. much will come of it. but it's really shocking that hillary has played any role particularly after bill clinton. ashley: and shows a lack of judgment yet again. she failed it. charles: thanks a lot, peter. thanks a lot, everyone. nicole, give us the details. >> which a bank is looking out the starbucks stock has done over the past year.

they think it's run-up to far, too fast. they are lowering their price target by $6. sixty-four dollars from $70 they put it on hold from buy. the stock gets it immediately following and down 3.5%. they also noted that domestic loyalty program. the rewards program. basically spend our money to get a reward. that is the business on the gold card. if you want a gold card come you can get one now are basically a month. instead of $30 you have to spend $60 this comes -- if you like in the very first gold card member ever. charles: you should be the first platinum cardmember. thanks a lot, nicole. in the meantime, lisa gibbons, winner of the apprentice is here to give us your take on the first donald trump. does she think she's been a sore

loser when it comes to colorado delegates? also, a lifelong republican putting the party. he said republicans still delegates. he is so angry he burned his gop registration card. we are going to talk to him next. more "varney" after this. >> this is a copy of my -- the republican party registration and republican party, take note. i think you are going to see a whole lot more of these.

we are still near the highs for the year. right now, the irs to determine how much they are protecting taxpayer information following the irs had. what has come out so far? this is a huge issue or everyone. >> the irs had john costin and on capitol hill testifying before the senate finance committee underway moments ago. testifying on the challenges of filing, tax money and cybersecurity. this comes ahead of tax day next week and after the embarrassing incident with the tax collector. according to the testimony, as many as 724,000 filers have been potentially impacted from the agency's very own get transcript portal. the irs you might remember first revealed last year cybercrooks had used previously obtained personal information to gabriel tax transcripts through the iris website. despite the virtual challenges,

cost and it says the future of the irs is indeed virtual. it costs about $40 to $60 to interact with someone in person whereas less than $1 they say online. here's what he writes in his testimony about a new in them grouped more robust way of doing business. and i'm quoting here. the idea that taxpayers would have an account where they are there preparers good long and come and get the information about their account and interact with the irs as needed. what happened last year and the gao would happen i'd have a little bit of people leery. charles: blake burman, thank you very much. next he were personally with donald trump before he was running for president. come on in, lisa gibbons, author of the new book, fierce optimism. you know donald trump personally. people are asking us if the person we see on the screen

running for president? >> thanks for having my time. i know i'm in the context of being a reality show with them and having interview had a handful of times here that is my window on donald trump. that environment is intimidating. i said how do i show up in the me in that environment so i could get to the pathway to winning. i will see donald trump detests his family is so extort dairy. so i saw him more as a paternal figure in that context for that show. charles: have you been to any degree surprised with the donald trump to candidate? >> i think that this entire campaign season has been surprising. trump is that man. he's unfiltered mps pulled and he does not shy away from controversy. those things we knew going into it. >> here's an interesting thing. the donald trump phenomena in your book, the timing for both

are perfect. the timing for this sort of anger in america inserted the feeling as a country helped donald trump, the outsiders and bernie sanders but also the individual point of view is where the book, fierce optimism, comes in handy. >> all candidates, all leaders, their job is to inspire us to believe but there is the economy, whether you are worried about security that we will get through it. that is an optimistic frame that you will rebound and recover. it is really an emotional competence of knowing that these are temporary things. the permit thing is our mindset. it's how we feel about the things that happen to us and how we respond to those things. charles: is that the crux of your book? you talk about what leaders are supposed to do. what are we as individuals supposed to do with our optimism

and our futures? >> we have setbacks, disappointments, heart aches. what i've read about in the book are the seven secret, really core values that i grew up with that i go back to time and time again to reset. what do i want to be about? how will i get it right with my kids? how am i going to nail the presentation? all the things we are faced with if we let our narrow pathway speed knighted by optimism, then we are going to problem solve more effect of late. the book is about how to use loyalty in that way, how to use empathy, how to use resilience, how to use your focus to get the things you want. >> these are essentially tools we all possess to a certain degree, but unleashing them in a way that perhaps people don't know they can't. >> you know, who do you choose to lock horns with? i mentioned a story of when i was a young reporter in the news

director is shocking is the sense that you know, if you wear your sweater is a little tighter come you just might make it in the business. well, when i was role-playing being a reporter, i'm sure no one talks to barbie that way. i chose to focus on what i wanted. i wanted to get out of there. so i made him a relevant and i kept my eye on the prize. i think that is why people were surprised when they said wow, nice girls winning celebrity apprentice. how does that work? you can drop trauma in your life in business, you will focus more. we get what we focus on. charles: how do you think we got here? it feels like this is wanting universal in america. is deep, dark aura of pessimism has offended over this country. again, i understand your book and how it could be a guide to getting through this for the individual. it's amazing to me that the most

optimistic country in the world for a long time, when tocqueville came here he was shot. anyone thought they could be anything, how that faded away. >> maybe it's recessed a little bit, maybe it's just fuzzy. charles: fierce optimism, lisa gibbons. appreciate it. more "varney" next. ts to benefit from different points of view. and by consistently breaking apart risk to focus on long-term value. we actively manage with expertise and conviction. so you can invest with more certainty. mfs. that's the power of active management.

charles: it's official. hillary and donald trump both won missouri. fox news contributor here along with ashley webster. to you first.

ashley: i was just looking at these numbers. it took forever to get this official. trump the crew c. 40.9 m. 40.7. that means donald trump gets 25 delegates to 15. a massive 10 delegates hold for donald trump. kasich gets no delegates. hillary p. bernie sanders also by .2 percentage points. she gets the super delegates which pushes it up naturally. voters stress hillary more than donald trump on the economy. give us those numbers. >> within the margin of error. hillary at 38%, donald trump 35%. on the economy, you would think that donald may have more of an advantage when it comes to the economy. maybe it's the things he's been

saying that make people worry. having said that, at least he's in the ballpark on that issue. charles: tamura, hillary, these are two things that can change. but you make of numbers right now. >> i look at the donald trump numbers. he cannot articulate his position. to ashley's point, he should have these kinds of numbers. they should be bigger for somebody who is this successful. charles: he talks about holding a wall. illegal immigrants who use a lot of public money, going into better trade deals. in some of the states where manufacturing jobs have been lost. he's garnered a lot of those and other economic issues. you don't think across the board is resonating? >> no. if you look at who is going into though, there's a lot of people missing. the reason why they are not registering to vote and they are not voting for trump is the reason that he is not articulating the positions that

he should be better at articulating. charles: again, this is a well-known poll. it is highly regarded. across-the-board health care, 3327. supreme court nominee 4223. what do you think he's done? this is interesting. i spoke to a couple trump supporters. do you go after hillary are make up more about issues in the general election? ashley: i would hope issues because that's what it means to start putting meat on the bones. when it comes to details of what his specific star with his proposals. >> you can't do that. he can't do it. charles: next-line come or clinton says gun fermata responsible for crimes in new york. here is judge napolitano during the 9:00 a.m. hour. >> there were no gun manufacturers in vermont. she is adding two plus two and getting 22. not a surprise she's doing that. the imposition of liability on the manufacturer for the

criminal use of the product would be like suing gm because the driver of the car was involved in a dwi. there simply is no due process. there is no fairness. charles: what is your response to that? >> i know some may argue judge napolitano is a better lawyer than i am. however, i do not understand the argument that just because guns are manufactured in vermont that the issue doesn't matter. last i checked, guns are not manufactured in chicago. and not in the inner city of chicago either. we have serious gun and drug issues that have nothing to do than manufacturing. charles: where does it stop? does it go up way back to the actual gun manufacturer? would you suggest that an up or without? >> i don't know. it depends where the guns are found that they are committing crimes be news to commit crimes by people. are they stolen?

are they stolen from police officers because in that case that is not the gun manufacturers responsibility. are they sold to the drug trade? absolutely, yes. charles: now this from joe biden. we are ready for a woman as president. roll tape. >> this country is ready for a woman. there's no problem to elect a woman in this country. i would like to see a woman elected. that's all right. i'm not getting into that. >> the president and i will not endorse. but will that the party decide. >> you tried to clean it up, but it was an endorsement of hillary. >> now, joe biden is known or gas. he is known for saying things that he shouldn't say. we don't necessarily know if that means something or not. if there's some subliminal message in there. but it is joe biden speak.

you can make sense of that. charles: woodmen in charles: woodmen in general say it is time for a woman, is that condescending at all? how do you feel about joe biden determining whether it is time for a woman to be in the white house? >> i think that's a ridiculous question, charles. how else are you supposed to ask the question? we've never had a female president. you can be offended by the way the question was asked. now is not the proper question. charles: he can opine like okay, okay -- >> everyone in america i can opine. people are talking about are we ready for a black resident. he would have to articulate why he didn't think it was time because she's too old and too shrill and her voice rubs people the wrong way. next-line from donald trump. taking a line from bernie sanders. roll tape. >> hillary clinton does not have

the judgment to be president. her decisions have been so bad and so wrong. i so look forward to running against, getting rid of these guys and running against hillary. her whole life has been made yet,, beautiful lie. let's see how she does. we don't want to waste a lot of time. a lot of people say there's no way she could escape the e-mail scandal. >> if she doesn't make it she could always have the head in my big beautiful lie. ashley:.his donald trump. you do want to see personally of the voter. the sort of attacks come you think this is funny. charles: if it goes that route, he's going to lose. he gets the majority that he needs to win the election. he needs to get into the issues a bit more. we know hillary clinton is perhaps not as trustworthy as she could be.

are you kidding me? >> she has sold fervor and that he had >> a little more junk in the trunk. but i think that you cannot continue to go after hillary clinton on her personally because now people need to see what the president and the united states is going to do. donald trump is going after everybody. the system is rigged. he's proud of the fact he's a bully. bullying does not work unless you just want your core group of supporters. charles: her shortcomings are free game. more follow-up for the panama papers protesters. calling for british prime minister david cameron's resignation. not a dirty word, ashley. >> we have the icelandic prime minister quitting. he put out his tax returns. it's ironic because he has not

directly, but indirectly talked about using offshore accounts. there is nothing technically wrong. the optics are terrible. >> americans don't understand the sox are business. the family did pay taxes. something a lot of europeans do. in that regard if your public figure you can't have stuff in hiding offshore. charles: especially if it's a bad thing to begin with. the dow has been a crazy role. we were up 75 flat now up 110. now take a look at oil because oil is gaining a bit as well. we are over $41. there is the relationship there. a strong session is pretty good testing. not the same for starbucks. unfortunately they've get a downgrade from deutsche bank.

it is off its lows for the session. more politics with bernie sanders on the campaign trail. joining us now, former texas congressman ron paul. the binning phrack eating thing i never understand, a fossil fuel jet trying to get the votes of the common person. >> that might qualify as hypocrisy. you know, i think it is an important issue, but i think it's all an artificial issue. the strong argument for fracking. human the development was a bit artificial because oil prices were higher than they should be. it was a bit of a bubble over $130 a barrel. there is an incentive to go after more oil and the government passes laws that want you to go and look for alternative fuels. but then you don't have to get your interests. you don't have to pay interest because money is free.

we ended up with a lot more fracking then we went in the market. to handle because maybe there is danger. i don't think the science and spanish. it should be handled like property rights. that is a local issue. it is not the president issue. it is not the congress' issue. people pose a threat and if a property threat and a neighborhood effect. i think that is worth thinking about. but it should be dealt with locally. the whole idea that we will ban fracking is an artificial problem to a large degree. people should understand that property rights are all about. charles: yeah, that's an amazing thing, too. we know all commodities are generally cyclical. even though oil has come down come you got to believe at some point it will be back over $100 a barrel. places like north dakota, oklahoma will be thrilled that they had the great paying jobs to take advantage.

and u.s. energy independence in fact. >> to point you make here is that the government gets involved in either artificially subsidizing some pain or prohibiting it, it does involve a lot of jobs instead of allowing the market to do it. then there's the ups and downs and and us. the market determine it, if it's efficient and is worthwhile. this whole thing is a gross interference with the market trying to sort things out. that is the economy we are working with and there are so many artificial assumptions whether it taxes, regulations or inflation of interest rates. charles: this election season a lot of ideas come out. one more thing that i think others do come you talked about donald trump's plan for funding the wall, making mexico pay for it. he said his idea of taxing or prohibiting the transfers of money would be fast.

what do you mean by that? >> well, i think i qualify, but you know, when you say there's $24 billion of remittances to mexico, people earn that money he's going to tax it or take it or freeze it. he has to be coming in now, taking something that doesn't belong to him. charles: if someone was here illegally made the money, do they still have the right to do what they want with it? >> well, i hate to throw her a bout the wind still have a tremendous amount of law or every financial transaction, which they are to have. it's two different issues that there's illegal immigration to deal with it. a matter of remittances it is a great form of foreign aid. they provide jobs that are people won't do.

where it gets mixed up as if they send $24 billion to mexico, what are they going to do with it? they will put that in a that in the shoebox and not use it. that's what they used to buy stuff from us. they don't understand how the market works. this prohibition -- doesn't make a lot of sense. charles: congressman, ron paul, thank you very much. the 9/11 homerun jersey is going to go up for auction. the question is does it belong in a private collection are in the hall of fame? we have that jersey on set at 11:50. bertie and his gop registration card. find out why because he is next. >> this is a copy of of my republican party registration and republican party, take note. i think you will see a lot more of these.

charles: check in the big board here. stocks moving higher all over the place had one of the reason is oil making a move to the upside and equities are falling. we call it the ratio. ashley: up over a buck as you y.n see. it is right in the line. up 129 points. a lot of this being fueled by speculation that the meeting in delhi this sunday will actually come up with an agreement on a freeze on oil production. not going to happen. iran refuses to pay. iran doesn't take part in this. it is negligible. charles: the ramp-up is going slower than they thought. we will see. a lot of optimism for now. a lifelong republican has decided to leave the party and burn his registration card after he was replaced at the colorado convention.

he thinks it's because he is a trump supporter. this into the video. >> this is a copy of my republican party registration. in the republican party, take no. i think you are going to see a whole lot more of these. i've been a republican all my life, but i will never be a republican again. charles: joining us now is the man in the video. thanks for joining us. i have read reports from some other folks they are in the county that you were elected to serve as a delegate in douglas county. however come you never showed up for the county assembly and therefore, lead you to the predicament you are predicament you iran. would he say to people who say new actually botched this.

>> well, charles, the fact is that i did miss the meeting i found out about yesterday. it was due to misinformation whether intentional or malicious lie that kept me from being that the end result was the same. i was disenfranchised and so were the people that i was supposed to represent. charles: you know, a lot of people are saying donald trump as saying the system is unfair and a lot of mainstream regular voters out there feeling that their vote doesn't count anymore. they feel your sympathy. they feel your pain. what you did yesterday is gone viral. is there something to be said about organization? is there something to be said about the rules going in place and having to know those rules? >> well, the gop caucus is currently in place in the state of colorado. it's archaic, confusing and too

easily manipulated so that the gop can get the outcome it desires instead instead of the outcome the voter desires. charles: used tank if everything is on the up and up at don's trump would've won colorado? >> i do. with so many people that i've corresponded with and the people that i met at the caucus who are in favor of donald trump and the latest polls that show more than 70% of colorado voters in favor of donald trump. plus there was actually no vote at all at the caucus. this was given to cruise without even a vote from the delegates. the delegates were put in place and there were no trump delegates at all. charles: before i let you go, i've also seen a story that you have stage four colon cancer and one of your dreams is to be a part of this.

where does that leave you? is there any chance you may come back and help fix the system that is so broken? >> that is what i'm trying to do right now. i want to fix the system because it is broken. but regardless of whether i vote as a republican. my vote goes for ever trump goes. my vote goes there. charles: larry leslie, we have to leave it there. i appreciate you coming on ensuring your unit are the hottest story in the country. we appreciate your time. thank you very much. the soccer team could boycott the olympics off equal pay. pay them what they deserve, just as much as the men. more on that, next. >> we want to bring live not only for us, but just as a paradigm shift for women's football, women's sports and

had to say on "mornings with maria" earlier this morning. >> we want to bring light to this issue, not only for us and inequality we face but it's a paradigm shift for women's football, women's sports and women in general. there are going to be here is where we generate more revenue than they did and there's going to be years where they generate more revenue than we do and that is okay. in terms of negotiation, it's a little difficult when you negotiate from a non-fair playing field. i think that is where we get our negotiation under the ceiling. we are looking to break down and get into a fair negotiation. charles: very articulate. >> this is about equal job, equal pay. i'm sorry if you can't make enough money. that is not their fault. pay the women what they are worth. which is equal to the men. that could be an element of it. you can compare them to the men

and there's a huge disparity. charles: up next, bernie sanders went by double digits. the split evenly with hillary clinton. the big question is the system rate? ♪ in new york state, we believe tomorrow starts today. all across the state, the economy is growing, with creative new business incentives, the lowest taxes in decades, and new infrastructure for a new generation attracting the talent and companies of tomorrow. like in rochester, with world-class botox. and in buffalo, where medicine meets the future. let us help grow your company's tomorrow - today - at business.ny.gov ..

charles: our next guest, you have heard him on this program many times, calling for the

market crash. let's bring in the author of the demographic cliff, harry, the democratic cliff, i like the premise of it but it feels like something that is going to happen 10, 20 years out. why should the market crash now? >> the market has gone nowhere since november 2014, a year and a half, first time in this rally so something has changed. the market still wants to go up because there is nowhere else for people to put money with zero interest rates, commodities crashing and everything else so it keeps trying to go up but since may every time you trikes to make a new high it fails. i call this the rounded top. look at the charts, so since may we are rounding down and we are near the point within a couple percentage but markets will stop. the market is at a critical point but the most likely scenario is we head back down into the summer and the

large-cap stocks like the s&p and dow, the only major stock market in the world that have not moved into a bear market and i think by the summer, it will continue well into 2017. i think this is important because demographics are declining around the world, europe thanks for getting in trouble especially italy. by the end of this year italy will be the next greece and there is no way to stimulate your way around that or bail them out. before despite the fact this rally has stalled, it hasn't corrected, it doesn't crash, money hasn't been pumped into the market, investors have put a lot of money into the market and most big money has gone into treasury. what happens when that splits around? what happens when we get the reversal of money out of bonds? would you deny the fact that if we retest the highs we go a lot higher? >> i don't think you will go higher because fundamentals are poor. first quarter gdp is looking like half mac%.

earnings have been falling the last we 3 quarters and predicted to fall further. i agree there is a chance our scenario too is we go sideways farther and go up and make a new high. i don't think it will be a major new high. 5% to 10% on the upside for investors but in my scenario on the downside in the next year and a half you get a 60% to 70% downside. i don't like that ratio. stuart: you have been making this prediction a lot longer, the average person watching this show who might have missed out on a huge move to the upside, what do you say to them? another year and a half and then crash? this is time out of people's lives and investment opportunities. >> the market has gone nowhere. the same .18 months ago. nobody meant anything. and charles, i am sorry, i studied bubbles more than anybody i know on earth, they are always like this, they go higher longer than you think but when they crash they are devastating. the stock market in the us went

down 40% in the first two months just like china did months ago. charles: everyone that sold in march 2009 regrets it right now. >> we did not tell people to sell in march 2009. before maybe we will break down later, not sooner. politics, bernie sanders won by double digits over hillary clinton. you know the deal, splitting those delegates with hillary. joining us is superdelegate for hillary, ramirez. you guys got to be feeling the heat. the gig is up, people are saying the superdelegate scam, they are not going for it. bernie has won eight in a row, he is on fire, within double digits of new york, i think you will have the revolt within the democratic party if you keep this up. >> unfortunately the voters are

speaking. charles: unfortunately speaking? i didn't mean to say that. >> unfortunately for you and your premise, you are incorrect. hillary clinton has gotten more voters than bernie sanders in all the contests combined, she has more voters, more enforcement, more superdelegates. this process -- charles: no one should win a nomination based on endorsements but let's talk about those voters, no doubt he won more voters with the correlation between voters and delegates and voters and superdelegates is so out of whack that it smacks of establishment and some sort of arrogance that will lead to its own 2 feet. >> we have had these discussions before in the democratic party and we had insurgent candidates who have won with the same system. the system has been in place for decades. barack obama was considered an insurgent candidate when he ran in 2008 but he won despite the

superdelegate process. in 1992 there was a governor by the name of bill clinton who was considered an insurgent candidate and he won with the same system in place. when we look at what we have these rules are not new, the process has been in place. charles: i got to ask do you think it is time to tweak them, make them more representative of the voice of the people? >> the process has always been somewhat tweaked. superdelegates don't vote until the convention. at that point we play a role. it is possible for candidate to win without a single superdelegate vote so it is not created to prevent any candidate from winning or prevent -- charles: i got to tell you. >> we won in the past and will continue to do so now. charles: the narrative is not going to fly but let them eat cake. thank you, appreciate having you on and be careful. might see some pitchforks out

there. major solar companies, the federal government, running out of money, gerri willis is here. a lot of trouble. gerri: unbelievable. you are running a company and the federal government comes in and all the customers you do business with will pick up 30% of the tab, give them a tax credit to buy your product. will you be happy? would that be great? these companies are going bust. sunedison has $12 billion in debt, they are under investigation by the sec, they have grown too fast too quickly, look what happened to the stock price, it is in the pink sheets, solar city down, son run down, stocks have lost half of their value over the last we 6 months because it is not that they can't keep up with demand, they can't run their businesses and here's what happens when the government gets by an industry like this? all the usual rules are out the window and people are just grabbing money as fast as they can. if this is such a great idea why

isn't it selling on its own? why does it require a government subsidy to make it happen? charles: an unmitigated disaster. thank you very much. judge andrew napolitano for hillary clinton, don't mock the fbi. the threat of an indictment is very real. mike piazza when he hit the homerun after 9/11, a historic item going up for sale. we have it in studio. i wonder if mike beyond the will be watching. >> big fan, thank you. stuart: you know me? >> are you kidding me? i want you guys every day. i am retired now. got to stay ahead of the trend. they are not cheaper. stuart: why didn't you tell me that at the start? it's more than a network and the cloud. it's reliable uptime. and multi-layered security. it's how you stay connected to each other and to your customers.

nicole: look at stocks, we are up 151 points on the dow jones industrial average at this moment, not far up off of highs, a gain of over 3 quarters of 1%, the nasdaq is up 23. let's look -- 23. let's look at apple. goldman sachs by the end of the month, actually raises siding so they are feeling pretty

positive. energy and investment performing group has been a winner today as we watch it take above $41. taking names with on the s&p 500 look at the big move, 25% for chesapeake, a big mover, johnson & johnson, lifetime high of the dow jones industrial average. we have up arrows coming under pressure.

charles: to politics the hillary clinton email scandal won't go away. all rise, judge andrew napolitano. you say it is dangerous for hillary to mark the fbi. dismissive of the whole thing. judge napolitano: she did it as recently as this past weekend with matt lauer where she does the high, almost forced laugh. in the midst, argues it is absurd even to consider the possibility that she might be prosecuted. when she does that, that is documented and recorded by the fbi and they are human beings obviously. who wants their work marked? the same people she said i can't wait to speak to them. another absurdity. they know it is an absurdity. she is saying i am willing to speak to the fbi, no smart defender who happens to be a lawyer wants to meet the people who are investigating them. charles: where would you rank

president obama's interview? judge napolitano: it is my column that comes out thursday. i read it tuesday, i am writing this morning. it was machiavelli and and at another point it was dumb. for him to say to chris wallace she was careless actually harms her, doesn't help her because carelessness is a species of negligence and espionage is the rare federal crime that can be proven by negligence. they don't have a proven test. admittedly it is gross negligence that can trigger espionage. what is the crime? the crime is the failure to safeguard national security secrets. what is the evidence? she paid a guy to diverged these emails from a government stream to her own, 60,000 emails she diverted. among them are 2200 which were confidential, secret or top-secret. some of them she sent to blumenthal, said blumenthal was hacked, fbi agents secured the

collaboration of the hacker serving a prison term in romania for hacking, he is in alexandria, virginia being interviewed by the same fbi agents that are prosecuting her. how can she mark this and not take it seriously? charles: on the espionage side will someone intercept the emails and use them? judge napolitano: espionage is the removal of secrets. a secret document in a secret and secure location to take it home. that is probably a mistake. if i did it 2200 times over four years, that is espionage. stuart: what about the idea that president obama tried to water it down. there is classified and there is classified. judge napolitano: he was damning her with faint praise. i don't know if he wants the fbi, the justice department to present his evidence to a federal grand jury or if he wants her to succeed.

he can't have both. if it is presented to a grand jury she gets indicted. it was a bizarre interview. chris did a truly superb first-rate job, better than many cross examiners i have seen. the president shouldn't have answered some of chris's questions because the president may be a witness in this case. from whom did she receive some of these top-secret emails? the president himself. charles: can't wait for the article thursday. a very emotional moment for new york city and the entire country, we are talking ten days after 9/11 metz legend mike piazza hits a homerun in the first baseball game since that terrorist attack. we had that jersey in studio.

paul ryan up to these days? is he thinking perhaps of launching his own presidential bid? some people say he has looked somewhat presidential. one analyst says all this presidential chatter, he will rule it out once and for all this afternoon. that is 3:15 this afternoon paul ryan, we will find out what he has to say. charles: i don't think you can rule it out. very important piece of baseball memorabilia right here. the 2001 mike piazza post 9/11 game worn jersey, he had a historic homerun in that game. lots of controversy around it and it is up for auction. ashley: this is the jersey mike piazza used september 21st stupid, bottom of the eighth inning at shea stadium, he said homerun, winning home run, the mets win 3-numtwo. a lot of emotional, a lot of emotion attached to this jersey. what is interesting is the mets admit they made a big mistake

and sold it three years ago in a private sale. mike piazza's father in local newspapers saying i wanted to buy it and couldn't afford it, the bidding has gone beyond online bidding has gone beyond what i can afford to bid. mike piazza'sather would love this to go into the national baseball hall of fame on july 24th. that is the background is very symbolic jersey signed by mike piazza. charles: thank you very much. tim golden from golden actions and the mike the out the jersey, this is absolutely -- the mets sold this and i'm sure they might have wanted to hold onto it but the budding controversy, something like this after 9/11 many people think should be shared with the public. what are your thoughts on that? >> i believe it should be share shared with the public. what are your thoughts on that? >> i believe it should be shared with the public@goldenzoobaauctions.com

you will see introductions stating how the hall of fame and the 9/11 memorial museum has requested if somebody wins it they can donate it for a long-term loan at the end of our discussion we talk about the purpose of the 9/11 memorial museum and how we as a company would like to see it and at the 9/11 memorial museum, if it goes at auction we can't restrict what the winning bidder does but it is something we are trying to arrange. charles: would it be unusual for the stipulation to be in this? we want these things to be done. >> i never checked into the legality of that. it is a free country. if they buy something at auction, we have a lot of foreign buyers. a large percentage of my customers are from overseas in asia. charles:this morning. we have been told one of our contributors, anthony scaramucci who hosts wall street we offered more than double what the

current bid is, and in the auction he said he would guarantee the jersey would rotate between the 9/11 museum, baseball hall of fame and city feel. is this true? >> that is incorrect. he needs to talk to his associate. what was proposed was an offer that would rotate between city field and the hall of fame. the 9/11 museum was not mentioned and that would have made a big difference to us. quite frankly it is not necessarily double, in addition, told them point blank we have had two offers of significant more, one that will up your donation to the 9/11 museum, not a loan and another offer we received it yesterday we are fleshing out right now but i will tell him if he wants to contact me directly, his associate knows my number, we were very close, we are very close, if the 9/11 memorial is included in their and we reached

the gap it is something to put together. and stay in the cityof new york. charles: the number anthony through you is not far off, just where the jersey would be shown. we get back to the question, you would like to have something of a say in this. 9/11 museum, baseball hall of fame, city field, x amount of dollars, talk about it, something sweeter to seal the deal. >> donation or long-term loan, 6 of one, half a dozen of the other. it is a discussion i would like to keep having. i was given the artificial deadline, let us know by 10 am and when i was talking to somebody else giving it is up your donation for the 9/11 museum i have to pursue that avenue and do what is right for all my customers in my auction it is available at auction right now. charles: the person, you guys are the middleman. the person selling it put up any stipulation, what is their

desire? >> their desire is to go to auction. charles: they don't care if they take it outside the country. >> they prefer it is on display in new york and put it up at auction for a reason. if i have a deal they are happy with and accomplish is good i think they will go along with me and i have those parameters. charles: you know the numbers. you know the numbers. >> i know what it takes and had a deal as soon as i get off the air otherwise i will be cutting this off very soon because i have to let the auction process take place. charles: you know what new yorkers feel about this. it is more than a jersey. i know anthony scaramucci. maybe he will talk to you about this. all the fans will love to see it stay in america and all the fans would love to see a different venue we talked about because it is part of our history. >> it is an emotional thing. it is one of the few moments of baseball transcendent sports that became part of american

culture and told the world and told new york it is okay to start to heal. to go on with your life. i truly hope we can work something out where it stays in the city of new york. before you have a lot of other things to talk about including a mickey mantle rookie card. good luck with the auction. we appreciate it. more varney after this.

stuart: i want to check the price of oil. it has gotten some traction. ashley webster in full effect. ashley: up numb $1.33, up numb $1.35, it is the perfect correlation. charles: you need to publish and get it out there right away because we had another famous publisher talking about bear markets and the market crashing. i agree the market must hold support and find another catalyst to the upside. i don't know oil is enough.

ashley: hasn't been this high this year so the last time was september 4th so it is dragging the market higher. before thank a lot, neil cavuto, all yours, take it away. neil: i love you to death but you realize the idea of guests is to get them to come back? charles: now you tell me! neil: getting a lot of nasty emails. great job. we are going to be talking to ourselves a lot after charles payne. i am neil cavuto. i don't know if it is earth shattering but possibly america shattering. paul ryan is expected to rule out that he is seeking the presidency of the united states. this is the same representative paul ryan who repeatedly ruled out becoming speaker of the house and now he is speaker of the house but this time he says he means it, he will choose a venue at the republican national committee in washington to make sure everyone knows it. blake
