and the wife of the man who investigated the hillary clinton investigation. the ooze and sleaze, when you thought you have seen it all, you see more. maria: that will do it for us. stuart varney take it away. stuart: i will do that. scandal and corruption tainting the clinton machine again. good morning, everyone. democrats gave more than half million dollars to the wife of a deputy director of the fbi. she was running for local office. he was overseeing the investigation of hillary clinton. who organized the money? clinton friend, terry mccaliffe, governor of virginia all of this reported in today's wall street journal. e-mails, influence peddling, damming leaks. the media largely ignored it all, and the corrupt media

pushing the tainted candidate and pushing the view that it's all, but over that hillary has won. in naples, florida, trump said it's a rigged system and began an intense two weeks of campaign, within real clear politics gives him a two point lead. how about this? investors business daily has a daily tracking poll which has trump up two points, grasping for straws maybe? the other national polls have hillary with a big lead. 15 days until the vote. glad you're with us this monday morning, stocks will open higher and we will go where the rest of the media will not. "varney & company" about to begin. ♪ >> oh, we've got lots of political news for you, but look at that. stocks will open higher this morning, up maybe 100 points for the dow.

i'm going to ask the question, has this got anything to do with the election? we will ask that question a little bit later. we do have a very big deal that was confirmed over the weekend, at&t wants to buy time warner for about $85 billion. distribution, and content, the content getting together. and at&t is offering the equivalent of 107.50. why is time warner languishing at 88? maybe the deal won't go through? more on that in a moment. at&t stock please, we're going to open lower, not at 37, the close on friday, ran about 36. but do look at this, please. facebook is going to open at a new all-time high. their instagram unit is considering a live streaming service for facebook, that's why the stock goes up. let's get back to what i am calling the corruption of an institution. that would be the fbi. influential democrat, long time

friend of bill and hillary, virginia governor terry mccauliffe runs the virginia democrat party which raised nearly half a million dollars for the election campaign for the wife of a fbi official, that official to helped oversee the investigation of hillary's e-mails. all rise, judge andrew napolitano is here. i think i've got the basic chain reaction accurate here. >> i think you do as well. stuart: is it corruption of the if fbi? >> well, it certainly appears to be corruption. if you ask me if a federal statute is violated, i can't think of a federal statue was violated. does it appear fair that the person supervising the day-to-day investigation of mrs. clinton is the spouse of a person who has received a half million dollars from hillary and bill's closest friend. how close is terry mccauliffe to hillary and bill. when they left the white house, dead broke she says.

terry mccauliffe gives them the mortgage to get their mansion in chappaqua. >> how key is andrew mccabe, whose wife dr. mccabe was the unsuccessful candidate for the virginia state senate who received over 500,000 from terry mccauliffe. how close is andrew mccabe to protecting the clintons. when the congress sought a private secret meeting with a fbi agent to explain what the heck happened between patrick kennedy and another fbi agent, was there a quid pro quo? who did the fbi send to the congress to justify this behavior? >> don't tell me, mr. mccabe. >> the same andrew mccabe. we hear what lawyers call, i know you don't like what lawyers say, but i think you'll like this phrase, the profound appearance of impropriety. he should have taken him off the case. director comey should have

taken him off the case. his wife can run for any office they want or raise money anyway, but they can't promise the rule of law by putting him in a situation that's adverse to his wife's best interests. stuart: i'll sum it up like this, they're going to get away with it. i'm being pejorative and i think they're guilty of something. whether it's e-mail scandal, inciting voter fraud, you name it. >> we're two weeks out from the election, i don't think that these things shock the voters any longer. i think mrs. clinton will probably win and if she does, these scandals will follow her into the white house as watergate followed richard nixon into his second term. stuart: okay. i'm glad to hear that, judge. personally very-- >> it's an unhappy state of affairs, but it's where we are today. stuart: what is happening to our country? what is going on here? >> it's a difficult question to answer in the few seconds that you allow me.

stuart: come back later, okay? because i want to get into this. thank you very much, good stuff. donald trump revealed his contract with america over the weekend. but did anybody see it? no. it was totally buried. now, the main points of this contract are on the side panels along the side of the screen. you'll watch them during this interview and our next guest was a big part of that contract with america. david malpass who is a trump economic advisor. welcome back. >> hello, stuart. stuart: it's a tragedy, america's economy is in bad, bad shape, the society is in bad, bad shape and this growth for prosperity is buried completely. >> that's right, trump is a saying 4% growth. hillary is saying pretty loudly 2% growth all the way out into the future. federal reserve 1.8. cbo says 2 and that's the permanent state of affairs and they're not proposing any change. trump comes in and says i want a corporate tax rate that's reasonable so businesses can

hire workers and that's not covered. i think trump needs to talk about it more. should lead over speech with the idea-- >> i got to fault the candidate, your candidate. i've got to fault him. the so-called gettysburg address, he raises the issue of suing his women accusers. he brings these women back into the picture. i mean, come on. ins this is a tragedy for america. >> there's huge stuff should be talked about. hillary clinton in the debate, what are you going to do on the economy, she said the biggest jobs program since world war ii. meaning the government is going to take over your life, she said it straight out. she said small businesses, we want to help them. that's, remember the old reagan joke, if the man comes and says he's from the government and he wants to help, you're supposed to go the other way, right? because he's not really going to help. and clinton said that loud and clear, so trump's got to come back on that and say, wait a

minute, that's not the way to get people back to work. this other approach and remember it's integrated. she keeps saying, all he's got is tax cuts. it's regulatory reform, huge, trade reform huge, energy reform, huge and also if you have faster growth you're going to have a stronger fiscal security for the country and a stronger national security. stuart: i'm with you all the way. >> they go together. stuart: growth and prosperity. >> let's talk about those everyday. stuart: have him talk about it, have him pound the table for prosperity and growth, please. >> one of the problems is the corruption in washington is too giant a problem to not raise. stuart: one of the problems is your candidate who can't stay away from talking about women and his accusers. come back later. >> okay. stuart: we'll hold you over for another block. i want to get to the at&t time warner deal, the proposed deal at least. it's not without critics by the way, including donald trump. watch this.

>> at&t is buying time warner and thus cnn is deal we will not approve in my administration because it's too much concentration of power in the hands of too few. ashley: i don't think he could do it. the justin department ultimately decides, he would have have sway over the justice department. he officially can't block it. it's all about consumers having less choice. the political backlash, everyone coming out against it. they're holding a subcommittee hearing in the senate next month on this, but already people are saying, ooh, hang on liz: yeah, senator mike-- >> and right on this, his-- >> he was right-- >> his reaction is this wouldn't work, and why would you want this combination? think about the lobbying standpoint, two giant companies sharing lobbyists and they can

all contribute to every correctional committee liz: sanders, the political campaign the trump campaign, i don't think you should politicize a merger, but we have a powerful g.o.p. congressman on the anti-trust committee saying he has anti-trust concerns and so does his democrat counterpart. the breakup fee. >> the choices of investors and consumers-- >> let me throw this on the table, at some point in the near future, apple, facebook, google will buy a content-- >> listen to this, the walking dead season seven premiered last night. i'm told it was very gory and told it was very, very good. lived up to the hype, apartme apparentapartment ly. a home run.

prediction, it's going to be a ratings bonanza. however, at the same time there was a terrible nfl game played between the seahawks and cardinals and ended, can you believe this a 6-6 tie? if you watched it, you were sorry you did. if you didn't, you're glad you didn't. either way, that's bad for the nfl which is suffering from a drop in ratings this season. an entire new spectrum. the market is going to open up maybe close to 100 points. good news for whiskey drinkers, jim beam workers ending a streak at the two bourbon distilleries. relieved there? the workers voted to approve the third proposed contract. they will cut mandatory overtime and hire more full-time workers, bourbon is a $3 billion business for the state of kentucky. air bnb, signing a new law that

together to raise questions and also offer solutions. it's not just been one-sided. i've met with them. i've listened to them. they've come up with a lot of important recommendations. stuart: all right, that's what she said about black lives matter. cleveland detective steve loomis, a frequent guest on the program and he's back again. i know you're not happy with what hillary clinton said about black lives matter. make your case, please. >> she said it's not one-sided. it absolutely is one-sided. she hasn't to this day met with law enforcement on a local-- she was here in cleveland several times, state, national fop. she hasn't met with any of us, so it's absolutely one-sided and i'm very interested to see what the recommendations from a group of, you know, exclusively racial, racially exclusive organization has to say and

they're profiteers, make no mistakes. stuart: wait a second, you said prof profiteers. >> they're a multi-million dollar organization. imagine if we got along and no racial divide, or sharpton or any of these racial exclusive and divisive organizations? the police officers across this country want to do everything that we can do to get back into the neighborhoods. we need assistance from the president of the united states and not their condemnation. stuart: do you think there's a race business, if i could put it that that expression. >> absolutely. stuart: and who is supplying this? millions of dollars, who supplies it? >> i don't know. that's a very good question. you know, organizations, individuals, you know, there's grass roots campaign efforts to provide the money for these types of groups and

organizations, there's no doubt that they're funded and well-funded. stuart: does black lives matter have such a leadership position in the black community that hillary clinton goes to meet them and talks about them in a positive way? are they that important in the black community? >> well, you know, she's out pandering for votes is what she's doing. she's-- the obama administration has absolutely ignored the african-american community for eight years and that's why you're going to be very, very surprised at the turnout and who is voting for who in this because that message does not go unnoticed by the african-american community. the law abiding citizens of this country are absolutely sick of the politics as usual and that's what we have here. she's pandering for votes and in a very dangerous way. this is an organization, i'll remind you, this is an organization that's called for violence openly against police officers across this country. stuart: steve, i'm afraid i've got to interrupt you.

we've got 15 days to the vote and i'm sure you're very much aware of it. >> yes, sir. stuart: steve loomis, appreciate it. >> thank you. stuart: and wikileaks e-mails, a paid disparate at the clinton foundation. male workers make on averages thousands more than their female counterparts. and fireworks on fox news sunday. chris wallace taking on the clinton campaign manager and wallace says if the clinton campaign is going to cry foul about the stolen e-mails they should be just as outraged about donald trump's stolen, leaked tax returns. you'll hear it all in a moment.

>> i guess what i'm saying, if that-- if we're looking at the fruits of that theft and i will call it a theft, it's fair to look at the fruits of your theft. >> i think what's particularly disturbing in this situation is that the intelligence community has now confirmed that john podesta's e-mails were stolen about the russian. >> i know what is talking about. i'm talking about the 12 million dollar from the king of 0 moracco and that it continues to show the line between private and public, and hillary clinton and the clinton foundation. stuart: i think robin is pretty good there. very good at what he does. he's in a real hole and deflects constantly with a smile on his face. tammy bruce, have i got it right? >> you do and i have by good authority that the trump tax returns from delivered by leprachauns who came from mars.

and some people may be tuning in right now, and they're not-- they don't have a lot of information, they can't imagine that people would lie the way that the clintons lie and the way their team lies so they're hoping that, look, also, with chris wallace, a very good example. he's not a robot, i'm sure he has an opinion and going to vote and yet, this is a legitimate question and he's calling them on it and a very, very good example and yet, this is a rare opportunity for him to have to be able to spin in this regard because nobody really asks this question. so for the american people, hearing the question asked is important, and then people can, i think, make up their minds if someone is being a little slimy in the process and i think he has. stuart: you'll never have those questions asked in that ways in the next 10, 15 days. >> that's correct. stuart: tammy, more for you coming up. dunkin' donuts the ceo says revenue is low, sales are down and blames it on the election. i'm not sure of the reasoning

there, we'll try to get to the bottom of it. that's what he says. how about the futures market? the dow opening up nearly 100 points. 15 days to the election, here is the question. those green arrows have anything to do with hillary taking a lead in the polls? the opening bell this monday morning is next.

...as a combination of see products.. and customers. every on-time arrival is backed by thousands of od employees, ...who make sure the millions of products we ship arrive without damages. because od employees treat customer service... ...like our most important delivery. od. helping the world keep promises.

>> all right. monday morning, we've got about 15 seconds to the opening bell. i think you investors will like it when you see how things map out this monday because i expect the dow will go up about 90, 95, maybe even 100 points. 3, 2, 1, there it is, 9:30. we're off and running and i expect to see a lot of of green on the left-hand side and the dow goes up. yes, it's up 60 points and almost all green, caterpillar is down and that's the only loser, that's turned around, 28 up. 74 points up for the dow industrials. that's a nice way to start on a monday morning. are we happy with it over there? >> don't answer that. and let's look at-- no, oil, down to 50 bucks a barrel. iraq won't participate in the cutbacks there, what a surprise there. 50 bucks a barrel.

and at&t time warner wants buy them. a lot of people don't think this deal will go through. more in a moment. don't forget, facebook shares hit an all-time high last week and their instagram program is planning is life streaming video system. look at that, that's a new high for facebook right now. lots of big name stocks that we talk about every day. the technology companies, they're going to be reporting profits this week. let's see, we've got apple tomorrow, google and amazon and thursday and all the big gametek stocks, except for twitter, except microsoft, microsoft i own it at $60 a share. i want those profits, please. who is with us, ashley webster, liz macdonald, david sica, david malpass. i'll start with the elections 15 days away. let's go around the block. the green arrows, stocks are going up.

does it have anything to do with hillary leading in the polls. trump guy. david malpass, first. >> i don't think it does. it's related to m and a abbing fifth. you've got bullard from the st. louis feds saying that rates are going to stay low. so what the market likes is access to bond debt so they're running up a lot of corporate debt and it gets distributed all around to the fees that go into m and a. the fees that go into washington d.c. so that makes people happy. it's not the election. hillary clinton is going to raise the capital gains tax, it's a six-year holding period so that's a negative for the market. that's not what is doing this. stuart: scott shellady, i think what the market wants is a split decision. if it's going to be a hillary presidency, okay, let's have the republicans keep the senate and house, that helps the market, doesn't it? >> maybe. i mean, it's almost a leading question here. i mean, at the end of the day we haven't gotten rid of the problems in the economy.

if you want to take a day by day basis, i don't think it's what hillary is going to do in office. going into the election, we haven't gotten rid of the problems that got us here in the first place. and the market likes to hear lower for longer on that's oxygen to the bond market. a slow grind higher. stuart: jeff sica any connection between today's market action and up in the election? >> i think i agree with david, in terms the tax hikes are going to be devastating for businesses, one thing, this market is addicted to fed stimulus and the market believes wholeheartedly that hillary clinton will continue this policy of fiscal stimulus. that is, that i believe is helping the market. stuart: okay. we're up 114 points, 18,259 as we speak. at&t would--

they want to buy time warner. i think we might see a lot more of this with the pipeline company tries to own the content company. i think we're going to see a lot more of that in the future. at the moment, the market doesn't believe that time warner will go through because it's down to $87. the bit price is-- they don't think it's going to happen. jeff, i think we are going to see the apples, googles, facebooks of the world they're going to want to buy the at&t-- i'm sorry, the time warners of the world. >> in the media game content is king. when it comes to mergers, you look at at&t with some 120 million clients and-- cellular phone clients and look how many cable clients they have, over 20 million. this gives them the distribution they need. time warner has content. when you merge the two

together, you have a big opportunity. i agree with those who say it's probably not going through. when it comes to apple-- i had said a while ago, netflix was having problems, apple should buy them because they've recently talked more about getting into content. content is king. stuart: they've got the money. apple's got the money, haven't they, scott? all of these big tech companies, they have the money. >> they can borrow it. >> i think that's right. content is 100% of the story and i see it down here in our industry. millennials don't care about seeing it live, they just want to access, content is the way to go forward. i agree. stuart: and it's mr. bullard, st. louis fed president, he's a hawk. we thought he wanted to raise interest rates. he's saying, no, steady as she goes and that's why the market is up 120. is that it. >> exactly. hillary clinton is saying we're going to keep the economy really slow by having a much bigger government. so if you're one of the rich,

one that's already made it, you're one. big companies that we're talking about, then that's a good outlook for you. stuart: got it. look at facebook, got to have a look at facebook, just hit another new lifetime high. now 132.64. they're planning a life streaming video business through their instagram operation, can you tell me more about in? >> who loves life streaming? millennials. basically live streaming, grabbing a piece of the tv ad pie. watch what china is doing, 10 cent, and 800 million on we chat, it's instant messaging. they're going to have a drone that's going to live stream video content to the we chat 10 cent site. that's huge, a drone going around taking video and sending it to your friends.

stuart: you got it going, and we're on a monday morning, now up 125 points. 18,271. there's an aircraft he component may have never heard of them. they're going to pay 6 billion bucks. one of the stocks, the acquired company is up $8-- i'm sorry, 15%, i'm squinting there. how about mcdonald's? nice populace weekment apparently all day breakfast is working. i didn't think it would, but it went up on that news and it's down a fraction today. don't forget microsoft, near the all-time high, 60 bucks about per share. ameritrade, td ameritrade, the two are getting together. you see a lot of their ads on tv. t-mobile is making money. they've added what, 2 million

customers? nicole: they added two million customers and grabbing market share. they have all of the customers that pay after they're done with the month. whatever they use, they're grabbing market share. and both teams are grabbing from at&t and verizon and the churn rate, the number of people who drop off on some of the month to month plans, well, that's been dropping off and that's good news there. now, they did have to pay out $48 million and they said unlimited data and slowing down how quickly you get that data. they settled that, don't worry. and the stock is at a new high as they gain customers and ones dropping off have diminished. stuart: 7% up, not bad, dunkin' brands is the parent of dunkin' donuts and baskin robbins, they have good coffee. i have to tell you that. the election is hurting sales. i don't know how they figure that out, ashley. ashley: it's interesting because they say the

uncertainty over the election is dampening people's ne wants for cups of coffee. i think it's a stretch. [laughter]. they say it's hurting especially lower income people paying more for gas, they're dealing with changes in assistance programs. >> stuart. ashley: and they can't afford-- >> is that scott shellady, come on in. [laughter] . come on in and tell me. >> it sounds like the economy is hurting it, know the economy. stuart: what's with that bow tie? a cow jacket and a bow tie, an odd mix, i got to tell you. >> trying to change it aup, that's all. [laughter] >> trump proposed a contract with america that will get more discretionary income for lower incomes. what dunkin' donuts is feeling, people just don't have any money. the money is going and we saw it this morning to giant mergers to on-line streaming,

very sophisticated kinds of activities that a lot of people just aren't participating in. they're getting left out. he's got a contract and hillary clinton has proposed nothing that will really change. in the debate she agreed with the moderator that it was going to be a continuation of the obama economy. ashley: and you were worried about the election, the uncertainty, you wouldn't sleep well at night. what would you need in the morning? >> a cup of coffee. [laughter] >> a muffin to are-- muffin for me. stuart: google and amazon report on thursday. jeff sica, 823 amazon, before their earnings are reported, would you buy any of these three? >> listen, if you missed these stocks up to this point, buying them now is pure insanity. apple will benefit, i'll say this publicly.

apple will benefit from the samsung implosion, but the horse has left the barn. it's not time to run and buy these now. stuart: you would buy facebook. big name and big tech, that's what you would go for. >> abes a the tech, they're monetizing the live stream and even making someone bearish like me optimistic. last word, scott shellady. >> ultimately we have the same exact problems in the economy. i'm talking about no matter whom is elected, we're not going to seriously get out of this. it's going to be another year. we have problems and we need to find real true growth. stuart: got it. jeff, scott, david, thank you for joining us. where are we now?

we're at 114 pints up for the dow industrial's 11 minutes into the day. well, another day and we have yet another clinton scandal, this time a half million dollars donated to the state state campaign of the wife of a fbi official by an organization, where did the money come from? an organization with very, very strong ties to the clintons. got it. meanwhile, trump being written off by the mainstream media, appointing hillary clinton as the next president. we have one poll that could suggest otherwise. ♪ this woman owns this house, with new cabinets from this shop, with handles designed here, made here,

shipped from here, on this plane flown by this pilot, who owns stock in this company, that builds big things and provides benefits to this woman, with new cabinets. they all have insurance crafted personally for them. not just coverage, craftsmanship. not just insured. chubb insured. that's why a cutting edgeworld. university counts on centurylink to keep their global campus connected. and why a pro football team chose us to deliver fiber-enabled broadband to more than 65,000 fans. and why a leading car brand counts on us to keep their dealer network streamlined and nimble. businesses count on communication, and communication counts on centurylink.

>> another leak from

wikileaks. this one shows bill clinton taking money from a consulting firm started by a former aide, a lot of money. ashley: a lot of money. from tenio the consulting firm that does high level business consulting. the former clinton aide, he gets $3 million a year, bill clinton, for his consulting services $3 million a year plus. this is a company that's very much in-- strong ties with the clinton foundation. the chairman is declan kelly appointed by hillary clinton as the u.s. economic enjoy to northern ireland. and huma abedin worked with tenio when she was with mrs. clinton in the state department. stuart: intertwining. and another clinton scandal may be ignored by the media another

one. governor mcauliffe, a high level staffer of bill clinton's campaign, governor of virginia, and helped hillary's 2008 run. helped the campaign of a fbi officials wife. that fbi official later helped oversee the investigation of hillary's e-mails. karl rove is with us. i'm calling this flat-out corruption. political corruption. am i right? >> well, if it isn't it sure as heck looks like it. let's go through the chronology. in early march of 2015, jill mccabe and her husband visit with governor terry mcauf live in richmond where he encourages mccain to run for the state senate. he wants to flip it to push his agendas through. she gets in the race and gets nearly half a million dollars

from a super pac he controls and additional $200,000 from the state democratic party which as governor he also controls. now, this is the same month, march of 2015 when we learn that hillary clinton has a private e-mail server in her home in chappaqua new york through which e-mails passed. andrew mccabe is the field director of the office. he's in charge of providing fbi resources for the investigation. by the end of july he's promoted to be the number three guy in the fbi and by the following-- by early the following year after his wife is defeated for state senate bid for november 2015, in early 2016 he's the number two person in the fbi and fbi acknowledges he was part of the executive management team that supervised the investigation of hillary clinton's e-mail server. if i were him i'd be sensitive to him that terry mccauliffe is

one of the clinton's close personal friends, as been for decades. and if there were not impropriety, there could be the appearance of impropriety. why he remained-- i don't know if mccauliffe had anything to do with the e-mail server, but the fact of my wife's-- and better that i step away. stuart: karl, they've gotten away it. i don't know if that's pejorative, planning election fraud, planning election violence, the fbi investigation, they've gotten away with it all, extraordinary. >> you know, you touched on one thing that really-- i want to focus on for a second. the foundation. remember, in january of 2009, she promises the united states foreign-- the u.s. senate foreign relations committee she will avoid even the appearance of improprieties. i would recommend anybody concerned about this get the

foreign senate confirmation hearing and read her promises. read what senator luger says to her. the foundation carries with it the threat of impropriety and the appearance of impropriety. i'm glad you've agreed to make these changes, but you need to be careful about this. john kerry, the chairman of the committee says, senator luger is speaking for everyone on the committee. democrat and republican and you'll be judged by your practice. she said she would have every foreign vetted and she had hundreds of e-mails and asking for favors for treatment foundation. if she wouldn't keep her word to the united states senate when she was confirmed as secretary of state, why should we think she would keep any promise as she seeks another job? >> we hear you, karl rove and i think they got away with it. check the markets, and 29 of

the dow 30 are in the green. next up, the clinton foundation, and the gender pay gap. men making much more than their female colleagues. we'll tell you how much more after the break. shares, you know. he ran that company. i get it. but you know i think you own too much. gotta manage your risk. and you've gotta switch to decaf. an honest opinion, even if you disagree. with 13,000 financial advisors, it's how edward jones makes sense of investing. how do we measure greatness in america? it's measured by what we do for our children. it's why as president i'll invest in our schools. in college that leads to opportunities... not debt. and an economy where every young american can find a job that lets them start a family of their own. i've spent my life fighting for kids and families.

i want our success to be measured by theirs. i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message. now that fedex has helped us we could focus on bigger issues, like our passive aggressive environment. we're not passive aggressive. hey, hey, hey, there are no bad suggestions here... no matter how lame they are. well said, ann. i've always admired how you just say what's in your head, without thinking. very brave. good point ted. you're living proof that looks aren't everything. thank you. welcome. so, fedex helped simplify our e-commerce business and this is not a passive aggressive environment. i just wanted to say, you guys are doing a great job. what's that supposed to mean? fedex. helping small business simplify e-commerce. loothat could savecare presyou money?rug plan at unitedhealthcare, we offer three plans to choose from to help meet your needs- including one that's brand new for 2017.

of california army national guard soldiers. they fought in iraq and afghanistan. now, about a decade later, they want the money back. what's going on with that. ashley: it turns out that nearly 10,000 members of california's national guard should not have received the cash bonuses, but-- >> in the first place. ashley: in the first place, they weren't eligible. why were they given the bonuses? because the army was under pressure to beef up the reenlistment numbers and enlistment numbers and in order to do that they handed out cash bonuses when they shouldn't have. we're talking in some places, 25,000 reenlistment and 25,000 in student loan repayments and some have refinanced their homes to get the money back and others suffered permanent injuries, i'm not giving my money back. >> we've got a former four-star

general, jack keane talking about this later. and if this company ends today in positive territory, it will be the 20th record close of the year. 132 on facebook now. hillary clinton is out there calling for equal pay for women. leaked e-mails show the average pay within the clinton foundation, 68,000 for men, 64,000 for women. and that seems to me like a discrepancy. >> it is, it is just a tad. isn't it? . there are arguments of conservatives that there is equal pay. it's a legal thing. pay men and women the same, doing the same job. so there's differences when it comes to the nature of a what an employee might contribute in the workplace. the telling thing is, it's a standard for the clinton campaign to claim this and yet we're finding out once again hypocrisy rules there. they're doing the opposite of what they say they're doing. they found this out in 2015 and knew they were doing it, an advisor called them on it, hey, considering all of this being discussed you might want to

take a look at this, you might be called on it, but this is how they view the issues, terrorism, equal pay for equal work. how does it fit our narrative. can we get away it. stuart: can we get away with it, say something statistically bogus, say it anyway and it on a key constituency. >> and at this point they might as well say it's the russians that took the money from the women. human beings don't matter, whether or not it fits the narrative and whether or not they can get away with it and if it helps them that's the only thing that drives these individuals and we'll see if the american people are accepting of that attitude. stuart: let's see, please, lord. tammy, bruce, thank you very much indeed. what do we have next? the state of play 15 days to the election. the media, by the way, clearly installed hillary clinton as the next president. they figure she's won already. you get my take on that, second hour of "varney & company"

about to begin. when you're close to the people you love, does psoriasis ever get in the way of a touching moment? if you have moderate to severe psoriasis, you can embrace the chance of completely clear skin with taltz. taltz is proven to give you a chance at completely clear skin. with taltz, up to 90% of patients had a significant improvement of their psoriasis plaques. in fact, 4 out of 10 even achieved completely clear skin. do not use if you are allergic to taltz. before starting you should be checked for tuberculosis.

taltz may increase your risk of infections and lower your ability to fight them. tell your doctor if you are being treated for an infection or have symptoms. or if you have received a vaccine or plan to. inflammatory bowel disease can happen with taltz. including worsening of symptoms. serious allergic reactions can occur. now's your chance at completely clear skin. just ask your doctor about taltz.

>> 10:00 eastern time and here is the state of play 15 days to the election. the media has already installed hillary clinton as the winner. the media is covering up the scandal and corruption within the clinton campaign. donald trump has a growth and prosperity plan, but he keeps shooting himself in the foot and i think that just about sums it up. new developments for you. trump's campaign manager kel kellyanne conway uttered a half sentence, yes, we are behind, four words, that's it. the media took them as impending defeat and read the headlines, hillary has won. where is the corruption, wore are the stories? they're buried the virtually unmentioned. the clinton campaign won't address numerous information on the e-mails, the information was stolen.

can't touch that. it doesn't matter when they ran with donald trump's stolen tax information. the media is complicit in the stonewalling, they just won't ask questions. there are new scandals emerging today. let's see how much air time they get. and then there's trump and his contract with america, what he would do as president, a long detailed list ever things and it's been buried. you heard about it, probably not. and trump is partly to blame for that. at his gettysburg address over the weekend, he brought up his women accusers and said he'd sue them. that is a self-inflicted wound. there is a longing for this to be over. and a sense of dread about what's going to happen. that is the very regrettable state of play. the second hour of "varney & company" is about to begin. ♪ >> well, we're 15 days to go to the election, i'm sure you

woke up this morning and checked the market and checked your money, where is it? where is it going? you're doing okay. the dow industrials still up 100 points and at&t wants to buy time warner for 85 billion. investigators don't appear confident that the deal will go through. we've got red arrows for time warner, 87. a record high for facebook that hit almost 133. big tech, they report their profits this week, apple comes out with the numbers tomorrow. google and amazon on thursday, all of those stocks, especially amazon, nicely higher in the early going today. and now this, our next guest says there is a connection between clinton campaign manager john podesta and the russians. his latest piece is in the wall street journal. and explores podesta's business dealings with russia. joining us james freeman wall street journal editor. >> good to be here. stuart: i don't know the full

nature of the story, lay it out for you. >> basically we've heard mr. podesta and others in the clinton camp, they won't talk about the e-mails because they were stolen by russia and to help donald trump. who knows. and interesting to know that mr. trump-- excuse me, mr. podesta has basically been in business with the russian business for a period of time of years. stuart: the gentleman on the left-hand side next to hillary clinton, her campaign manager. >> campaign chairman. stuart: he runs the show. >> he's in charge. stuart: he does business with russia himself? beginning in 2011 he joined the board of a joule, an energy company. shortly after that, the russian government, investment fund backed by the russians he was on the board with a representative of the russian government investment fund. what makes it interesting, i

think he realized, especially since he later went on a foreign policies affairs board when hillary was secretary of state, maybe he didn't want so much attention to this. when he goes to the white house again in 2014 reports on his federal financial disclosures that he divested himself of the investment. stuart: yes. >> now, most people would think of that, that he cut ties with the company. no longer involved. it's a little more complicated because he actually transferred the shares to a separate company that he set up, that they later admitted was owned by his grown children. stuart: that's not devestiture, he's not gotten rid of his stake in russia. >> if it passed it from him to his kids, some people say not exactly the disclosure you'd want, but maybe that counts as devestiture. what makes it more interesting, you look at wikileaks e-mails, later, 2015 he's getting bills from his law firm for matters related to joule.

that's kind of odd. if he divested himself the start of 2014, why is he still having legal work done related to this investment? so the question is, did-- for this brief window between when he left the white house and went to work at the clinton campaign, did he suddenly get back involved in the company and maybe we just haven't been told that? but i think a lot of questions here, but regardless of how and when he exercised what level of control, i think the idea that he essentially has been in business with the russian government for a period of years would make people look at these protestations a little differently. stuart: that's a standout fact here. >> i think so. stuart: fascinating. james, thank you nor -- for digging that up and being on the show. >> a poll we should point out

is an outlier. all other national polls show hillary clinton with a sizable lead. now, hillary clinton is leading most polls 7 to 11 points. new wikileaks e-mails suggest her campaign may be helping to skew those polls. explain that. ashley: yeah, it's interesting, we get into the meat of the wikileaks e-mails, this is an interesting one. i want to bring up the first piece of this, if you like, where it says, i also want to get your atlas folks to recommend samples for polling. atlas is a political firm helping to get progressives elected. by market regions i want to get this compiled into one set of recommendations so he we can maximize what we get for the media polling. media polling is paid for and basically designed to help you push your narrative. stuart: internal polls. >> internals polls. research market targeting and

oversample hispanics, use spanish language, and oversample the native american population so they're skewing the polls. stuart: by who they call to ask for an opinion, they're skewing it in their favor. whether it's had an internal poll to balance out external national polls. ashley: that's how they'll do it. stuart: all right, donald trump's campaign manager is speaking about the campaign on a sunday talk show, she says they can still recover. watch this. >> this race is not over. many in the media want to say it's over for the 12th time they're counting donald trump out. we're not giving up. we know we can win this and we're certainly not acceding to the same chattering class that's been wrong about donald trump for the last year and a half. stuart: if you're following the mainstream media you'd only hear about this. >> we are behind and she has tremendous advantages, a former president happens to be her

husband campaigning for her, the current president and first lady and vice-president all much more popular than she can hope to be, but she's seen as the incumbent. stuart: the key expression there is, yes, we are behind. governor mike huckabee joins us because the media jumped all over those four words and virtually nothing else. governor, it seems to me that to be a strategy on the part of the clinton campaign helped by the media for the media to say she's won already, it's all over, maybe they're trying to depress the vote or something, but i think that's the strategy, isn't it? >> stuart, you are such a cyn cynic, how dare you think that the media is biased to hillary clinton, i can't believe you'll sit there with such a cynical heart in such a time of fairness. and of course the media is in in the tank.

i think they're making a mistake. here is the mistake and i hope they keep making it. one thing they can't afford to do is take the tepid support and lose some of that people say you know what she's going to win i don't need to go vote and i'm hoping that happens. the trump supporters look at the rallies. those people are not deterred. i don't care if it rains 16 inches on election day and they have to swim inside the polling place, his voters are going to go vote. and if hillary keeps sort of chilling out her own voters and sailing saying, hey, vote if you want to, i've got this in the bag, good luck with that. stuart: governor, you're getting a lot of attention for a tweet that you posted and i'm going to quote it. if g.o.p. loses senate it's not because candidates ran with donald trump, but because they ran from him. no time for wimps and wwusses.

better explain that. >> boy, the trolls have been coming out if full force. i've been called things i i don't know exited. i call them the bed-wetting republicans, so immature and afraid of their own shadow. these are people who need safe spaces because halloween costumes scare them. i'm tired of republicans, the first sign of pressure comes they fold like a cheap tent in a wind storm. a lot of the republicans are acting like they've got to run from donald trump. if i don't, some of the independents or maybe even some democrats who might vote for me, they might run away. let me give you a news flash, if you do run away from the person who got more votes than anybody in the party's history in a primary, if you run away from him, then a lot of those voters are going to leave you out there to hang and dry on election day.

so, i just think it's a stupid strategy on the part of some republicans who are running from trump instead of running with him and they need to saddle up and make this a team effort. stuart: all right, we hear you, governor, and so do a lot of other people, trolls included. governor mike huckabee. appreciate it. we have a riot police in northern calais, that's in france, a migrant camp called the jungle. thousands of migrants are there and trying to get across the channel into britain. police now clearing the camp. angry migrants are fighting back and lighting fires. >> film maker michael moore insulting trump supporters calling them legal terrorists. and christian now free in mosul, and church bells ringing

fbi, took a very active role in the clinton e-mail investigation. his wife, dr. jill mccabe was running for state senate and who gives here nearly a half million dollars, but hillary clinton's best political friend, the governor of virginia, terry mccauliffe. it looks really bad and i will say this is not hidden. i believe it's played prominently in the wall street journal today and see how much pickup it gets. stuart: they're going to get away with it, one corrupt element after another and they're going to get away with it, byron. >> well, look, an election is always one candidate versus the other candidate and we have seen a lot of voters very unenthusiastic about hillary clinton, but still feel, rightly or wrongly, that donald trump is just not the candidate that they want to be president. and you know, you said it yourself a few minutes ago, trump stepped on his message. stuart: yeah, he did. >> during his speech in gettysburg on saturday, he had

to know that and he had a message, a series of reforms and actions he would take in the first 100 days of president that are pretty popular and scored in the past and would continue to do well with voters and yet, he seemed to kind of step on the whole thing. i want to give our viewers an example of how slick, i don't mean that word too-- is undermining transparency. the clinton campaign will not talk about the leaked e-mails because they say they were stolen, can't talk about it. what about trump's leaked, stolen tax returns? fox news's chris wallace asked about it and hold on a second, byron, just watch this. >> the trump tax returns were stolen as well when they were mailed to the new york times, you guys didn't object to that. in fact, you jumped all over it. >> we don't know where those tax returns-- >> they were clearly stolen. we don't know. >> do you think that trump had given them? >> i don't know, i don't know how they got to the new york

times. stuart: chris wallace is the only media guy who is going to dig into this. for everybody else, oh, that's fine, stolen, can't at that you can about it, this is ridiculous. >> a lot of credit to chris for pushing this. this has been a problem from the wikileaks composures, the problems for the clinton campaign. do they try to explain what's in the e-mails, kind of conceding they're real or say, hey, these are stolen, from the russians, we have no idea whether this is true, or it's been doctored or not. they've been kind of going back and forth on that, but they seem to kind of settle on saying they've been doctored. go back to 1992, this is a very old technique. bill clinton had had an affair with gennifer flowers in arkansas. she raised this accusation in 1992, they denied it. she brought out an audio recording from bill clinton

they added 2 million customers in the stock price right there is a nine-year high on t-mobile. years ago the california national guard offered people bonuses of around $15,000. sometimes more to go to war in afghanistan and iraq. now the pentagon says they want the money back. general jack keane is here with his reaction. i understand the bonuses are not supposed to have been paid in the first place. so it's legit for the pentagon to want it back. that's a terrible slap in the face for men and women who went to war, is it not? >> is certainly is. this doesn't make any sense. the lawyers are involved in medicine modalities here. common sense is not to intervene. i mean, those bonuses were paid from the soldiers soldiers went off to war and bonuses are now part of their mortgages and kids education to go back and recover

those costs have a hardship makes no sense to me whatsoever. >> general, forgive me. the people who want this money paid back and some of the people in california just don't like the military and they don't like people who went to war in afghanistan and iraq and they are grinding a taxpayer to my way out of mind? >> you're probably a little out of line. this is the california national guard that wants the money back in the pentagon that once the money back. it is the united states government, not necessarily the citizens of california and the bureaucrats insisting that the laws on their side and they have an obligation to recoup this money. makes no sense. >> you do get my point? >> i've got your point. stuart: thank you very much.

the battle in mosul intensifying. letters writing up a sulfur stock pile hoping to slow the toxic fumes all over the place trying to slow the advance of iraqi forces. take me through this. where are we headed for? what the endgame here and not part of what used to be called iraq? >> well, this is the last major stronghold. it is clearly to take mosul, clear isis out of there. that does not mean isis goes away because they will continue to be a terrorist organization operating in the shadows and killing government officials, policemen, citizens, and better appeared we don't truly have a large plan to defeat isis. so yes, this operation will eventually be successful.

the state of iraq will have its sovereignty again in terms of owning the borders previously appeared there would be huge political issues in light of iraq because of the divisions that exist there between sunnis and shia, kurds, government of iraq and whether the government can pull this unity together is another matter. we think not because prime minister abadie is a week later and much too close to the iranians to welcome these divisions. stuart: this kind of fighting and rivalry between various factions is just not going to go away anytime soon at all. it is a mess and states amass regardless of what happens in missile. >> during the search. there was unity and general petraeus and ambassador crocker worked hard on not and prime minister maliki.

we pulled away from the government and started. the iraqis was to themselves likely this unity continues. but somehow endless and shaping, we can make some good here. the fact is we are not politically engaged to the degree we should be that the iranians are all dead trying to draw this regime to where iraq is stable, the government is weak and the government is divided. that's what the iranians want. stuart: general jack keane, thank you for being with us. appreciate it. >> are talking, stuart. stuart: hillary clinton taking a private meeting with black lace pattern during their time in ohio over the weekend. she says blacklight is says blacklight snider plays a constructive role in our society. roll tape. >> i think they played a really important role in our country. these young people who came

stuart: "the wall street journal" with a new scandal is dirty. but the scandal, the continuing degradation of america's most important institutions. virginia democrats could nearly half a million dollars to the wife of a very senior fbi official. she was running for local office. her house and with the deputy or was one of those overseas mammoth negation of hillary clinton. the top democrat in virginia as the former chair of the clinton campaign, and governor terry mcauliffe. my birthday mr. mccain was the fbi official who briefed congress on the latest state department influence peddling investigation. follow the money. nearly half a million dollars coincidentally going from democrats to the wife of the man right in the middle of investigating the democrat's presidential campaign. of course there is plausible deniability.

but it reeks, doesn't it? one more piece of evidence we been taken for a ride with a history of deceit and dirty politics has corrupt did the political process. the active help of the media looks likely to win the presidency. how is that it is when it's come to this. the third hour of trent devon is about to begin. not a bad start for the week of the dow industrial at 91-point. when you look at these nice docs they are, without google, facebook, microsoft, all of them huge giant technology companies. that's redundant good nonetheless, they are big companies and all of the lifetime highs as of today.

the dow is now at 93 points. how about time warner and at&t. at&t wants to buy them for 85 billion, but that deal might not go through and that is why time warner is down 87. look who's here. peter navarro, trump economic adviser who has something to say about the at&t merger deal with time warner. mr. trump doesn't like it. he didn't want anything to do with it. >> he gotten all look awfully conglomerate media steadily in fluent in our political process and intruding into our lives. we've gone from 50 companies and it's just getting worse. stuart: what does a man who is a professor of upper california or trump advised her, what is the vatican little to allegation in a growing developing industry by shimmer >> this is straight teddy roosevelt back in the early 1900s. we had tobacco trustable

railroad trust. they screw the little guy, make a buck. they wrecked the economy in the efficiency. in this digital age, it is a very invalid kind of situation. it's not monopoly. it's an old awfully. michael eisner's quote was probably the best revealed the reason we are entities to make money. it not about any public interest in the disk operations which control our media ventures that do not: i was not in the american public, it doesn't matter to them. we really need to look into this. we've been talking about this for the last two decades as we've gone from a dispersed media now to one which is perfectly horizontally integrated and bending are my ways. stuart: interesting point. you've got a point on fox news.com where you see a market correction.

the market comes down after the election. but it will come down after the election regardless of who wins. >> we are in what i referred to as the paper bull market. we got unprecedented low growth under obama clinton because they don't know anything about managing an economy. because interest rates are so low without a lot of bond market money allocated to equities propping it up so it looks like it's healthy, but it's not. the only docs going up are the ones with the secular technological uptrend like you just talked about. everything else is in limbo. that is got to give. what happened next is interesting. i don't know if you can do this, but the pool was simply be suppose you had the next president cut taxes, decrease regulation and eliminate the trade deficit i increase in export or import. would you be a bullish or be

bearish. take the personalities out of it you know what investors with that. what is the choice there? donald trump. >> understands that this workout the way you think the workout that cutting taxes, deregulating unfree enough energy. you assume that would give us 4% growth in investors recognize the growth potential. >> this is directional, stuart. what we have now is obama clinton, they raised taxes. they increase regulation. hillary clinton did in columbus, ohio she wants the coal miners that have been met, get rid of the oil and gas industry issues and behind all this bad trade deals. everyone of those things points in the opposite direction of growth. 1% growth. if you bring in donald trump and he does cut taxes, reduces regulation, unleashes energy to,

that point in the direction of growth. the only question is what is the point at dement and does it matter because whenever it is, if we get more growth now, that is more earning that investors basically putting this docs for a good reason not a favorable reason. stuart: what about the contract with america? you know, it was buried. >> the discussion about the old awfully media that doesn't want to cover that. stuart: that's part of it. they go out of their pennies in a suit them where did that come from? >> i take your point if you read that address it was a beautiful address with every point of the policy comes as. stuart: it is a tragedy that

that is not getting real coverage in america. >> am here to talk to you about it and we are doing that now. stuart: you know this job. they make the timing is impeccable. stuart: peter navarro, you are all right. thanks for joining us. back to clinton corruption in the hillary camp. the governor of virginia, terry mcauliffe, the presidential campaigns help raise nearly $500,000 for the election campaign of the wife of the assistant director of the fbi. he's back. judge andrew napolitano. let me go through this. half a million dollars goes from virginia democrat and the wife is running for local election poster campaign on. she is the wife of the deputy director of the fbi. i call back corrupting you say? >> it is corrupt.

unfortunately not illegal but it is corrupt. profoundly the periods of impropriety and obvious the deputy director of the woman running in virginia who was a lawyer is bound by the canons of legal x even though he's not actively practicing law. those can pay one must avoid the appearance of impropriety. is this going to touch mrs. clinton? is this going to move the needle or is this another in tents like you were talking about with peter navarro where no matter how the media plays it, no matter who pushes it, mrs. clinton can wipe her hands and it and the public is so accustomed to clinton scandals the go in one collective ear and out the other. stuart: plausible deniability. it's always there. >> this is even worse than it appears because at the time governor mcauliffe did this, he himself was being investigated

by the fbi. he still lives. we don't know where the fbi is going to go with her and that patient. their allegations of political corruption against her mcauliffe himself. that doesn't mean he can't contribute to the campaign but it does mean that has been, deputy your should have nothing to do with the criminal investigation of mrs. clinton which he headed in the criminal investigation of terry mcauliffe. stuart: i'm always reaching the point of despair for what going on in america. >> i think you hit it nicely in your opening statement at the beginning of this segment. it's very, very sad when major petitions have the appearance of corruption. the fbi at one point had the reputation as the finest least corruptible von enforcement entity on the planet. there are many fbi agents today who would knowledge it does not

enjoy that reputation any longer. stuart: what a sad thing that is to say. judge, we appreciate you being with us as always. if not for the corruption story, the next story would be the than 10,000 soldiers and forced to pay back their enlistment bonuses. we will tell you why the pentagon wants the money back a little later this hour. first, donald trump doubling down that the system is rigged and we have some brand-new examples of voter fraud just in from the state of virginia. listen to what trump said about it all. >> if we win on november 8th, we are going to fix our rigged system. it is a rigged, broken, corrupt system. it is broken, corrupt. they want me to take that back. folks, it is a rigged system.

>> i couldn't agree with you more. stuart: what is particularly troubling is the potential for illegal immigrants to vote. in california, half the new drivers licenses issued in the past year went to illegals and john podesta, chair of the clinton campaign is making it known that you can go. it's not that difficult. what are we going to do about the non-citizens voting and messing up the election? >> here's a travesty. under the 19 talk about, one of them was a world war ii veteran. i can guarantee he wasn't going to vote for hillary clinton. the segment with judge napolitano, the recurring thing that has to do with our governor terry mcauliffe. our board of elections has spent almost 300,000 ballots to fairfax county which just borders d.c. why? what are we anticipating? donald trump is right in the

fact that it's corrupt. it's not that the election officials and that those folks working hard day in and day out. the data is corrupt. we know that. there's 19 wycoff by circumstance. but that's in you mentioned, the data were used to create the poll books is corrupt. so much was involved. we've got to go back and look at our data to make sure it's right. stuart: what happens on election day? what are you going to do? he bodies they got questions about the validity of the vote. the >> reality is we have great people working the elections that want to uphold the impurity of that. not a lot we can do right now. we are not able to pull ourselves back into session. we caught in the state board of elections, controlled by the democrat party as well as the governor's office here. the department of elections go back into the database. the >> if it is a close election, just a few hundred votes decides

virginia, then you've pretty much got the challenge. >> will have to do that. you are so correct. we lost the attorney general's race last time we had a statewide election by 110 does. i'm a sitting senator. five years ago i got elected by 86 votes. you better believe it will be tight in challenge. stuart: quite an interesting situation. thank you for joining us as we will see you again soon. another leaked e-mail at this point shows concern inside the clinton camp about hillary's stance on visa while she was at the state department. >> this is in relation to the san bernardino shooting. hillary clinton left the state department a few months before the shooting and the concern among the clinton camp and people start to say hillary clinton was secretary of state. the female shooter of not got a

visa. actively promoting jihadist them on the central while living out that the united states but was able to get a visa, come in here and do harm. how do we spin this because they are certain that either the primary or the republicans for sure will say what is wrong with the hillary clinton state department if you can hand out visas to people that came here and literally did harm. 14 people died in san bernardino they were very conscious of that. stuart: news for whiskey drinkers. jim b. workers have ended their strike it to kentucky bourbon distillery spent the workers voted to approve it or proposed contract. the contract would cut mandatory overtime and would hire more full-time workers. kind of a nugget for you here. the bourbon business in kentucky, the only place you can brew it.

we've got to do is look to the california national guard payments that were given, bonuses legitimately ten years ago, to rip it back from troops out of service. this is an outrage, and if it isn't fixed, it shows you how disfunctional washington truly is. pentagon bureaucracy's broken. these are bonuses that the soldiers legitimately got. they said, sure, i'll sign up for three more years, six more years, thank you for the 15, 20, $25,000 bonus that they earned. and now we realize there were some mistakes, we're going to punish that individual soldier and say you're going to give that money back? it's maddening. stuart: i think you and i are on the same page. i i just hate it. hegseth, you've calmed me down a little bit at least, and i like your book, by the way, "in the arena." >> thank you, sir. i appreciate it. stuart: now this, donald trump being written off by the mainstream media, already

anointing hillary clinton as the president. here are some of the headlines for you. washington post, donald trump's campaign manager admits we are behind. she said a lot more, but she said that. [laughter] politico, trump's window is closing. l.a. times column, rigged election, trump is just hanging himself out to dry. partially true. hillary clinton even calling donald trump a sore loser already. listen to this. >> the peaceful transfer of power is one of the things that makes america america. look, some people are sore losers and, you know, we just, we just gotta keep going. [cheers and applause] stuart: stacy washington is with us, syndicated radio host. stacy on the right, is what it's called. have you given up? because the media is declaring hillary the winner. >> of course not, stewart. good morning. why would i give up on something that hasn't happened yet? you know, ibd, tip polling shows

that trump and clinton are in a statistical dead heat because he's ahead of her by a couple of points. the l.a. times, rasmussen polling, these are not fly by night. they're doing continuing polling of americans, 1500 at a time, and and they're finding that this race is not over. i'm a military veteran as well, air force, and the stars and stripes is reporting that among military who are voting, trump's ahead by ten points. stuart: okay. i think it's a strategy by the media to convince people it's all over, don't worry about it. hillary is the next president, jump onboard, forget about voting for trump, it's not worth it. it is a deliberate strategy, i suspect. do you agree? >> i do. and, you know, stuart, it's an interesting thing because it's hike a psychological warfare type of a mechanism. hillary clinton doesn't have the kind of enthusiasm that the republicans have in this election. it's a change election. a lot of people are upset about the rate hikes of 50% on the premiums for obamacare, the

actual unrecovery over that we've been experiencing. a lot of americans are are out of jobs. they've seen their towns decimated by the flight of manufacturing jobs and some of the oil industry jobs. so we're looking for something different. and as many foibles as trump has, he's no hillary clinton. he doesn't have two policy positions for everything, and he's not saying horrible things about americans in general behind closed doors according to wikileaks. stuart: i want to get your take on hillary's meeting over the weekend with black lives matter activists. in part, she said they have an important role in our future. they offer solutions to some of our problems, talking about black lives matter. what do you make of that, stacy? >> okay. so it's no secret i've said many times on the air that i don't understand the purpose behind black lives matter when the mike brown shooting was clearly debunked. it's not a hands up, don't shoot situation. and when we want to make changes in our systems in this country,

we use our civic opportunities, meaning you can unseat a mayor, you can unseat a city council, you can even get a police chief changed if you feel like there's systemic racism. black lives matter is just another iteration of the occupy wall street movement which we all know was rooted in democrats seeking electoral control. so i think she's telling them to keep it calm before the election because every time a city burns, more people turn to donald trump for their vote. so they're going to be quiet until the election. stuart: what would be your guess about the rate, the percentage of black folks who vote more hillary clinton? i -- for hillary clinton? i mean, for barack obama it was over 90%. what do you think hillary clinton will get? your honest assessment? >> 80-85%. look, in south carolina 25% of blacks polled say they're voting for donald trump. we're seeing these kinds of shifts across the country. i can't say for sure what it will be, but i don't think that hillary clinton is going to pull

90% of the black vote. there's no way that's happening. and the republicans only need about 15%. stuart: all right, stacy, 15 days to go. i'm sure you're on it on your radio show. thanks, stacy. >> thanks, stuart. stuart: all right. we're not quite at the highs of the session, we were up about 125 earlier, now we're up 93. we'll take that. at&t wants to buy time warner more $107.50 a share. time warner, though, is only trading at $87.50. i guess investors don't think that merger will happen. t-mobile is making money, lots of it. they added two million customers. that stock is now at a nine-year high, a 7% gain. big gains making, for the technology companies. microsoft, amazon, facebook, now that means bill gates is now worth $82 billion, jeff bezos at amazon, $71 billion, zuckerberg at facebook, $57 billion. all of this according to "forbes".

got it? president obama continues -- no, no, hold on a second. obamacare continues to unravel. read that wrong. up next, a congressman who's also a doctor. he says we're not going to get a fix anytime soon. >> we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it. affordable. affordable, there's a reason. affordable. affordable. affordable. affordable. affordable.

>> i'm nicole petallides with your fox business brief. we've seen some optimism on the market today, we see the dow jones industrial average up 91 points at 18,237. that's a gain of more than a half of 1%, the s&p 500 up 10, the nasdaq gaining 45. you have earnings, optimism on corporate deals, so that's something that we continue to watch such as time warner and at&t. striving the dow -- driving the dow, names like microsoft join facebook and google as they are all hitting lifetime highs. boeing and 3m also leading. as we talk about boeing and airlines, we see a deal, a consolidation in aerospace, and that is rockwell collins. that is a $6.4 billion, rockwell pulling back gains bigtime of about 15%. and td ameritrade, well, that is -- you have scot trade, a billion for $4 billion, you can

see them pulling back. (announcer vo) or you can take a joyride. bye bye, errands, we sing out loud here. siriusxm. road happy.

(announcer vo) you can commute. (man on radio) ...40! no flags on the play! (cheering) (announcer vo) or you can chest bump. yo commute, we got serious game. siriusxm. road happy. >> we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it. finish. >> if you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor. period. if you like your health care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan. period. >> affordable. affordable. there's a reason, affordable. affordable. affordable. affordable, affordable. >> if you like the plan be you have, you can keep it.

if you like the doctor you have, you can keep your doctor too. [applause] [bleep] >> wind up with their premiums doubled and their coverage cut in half. it's the craziest thing in the world. [laughter] stuart: the craziest thing in the world. doesn't that say it all? that was then and this is now. obamacare, look, let's be honest, it's collapsing in some states premiums are going to go up by 60, maybe 70%, and the average increase is 24%. even if you're not part of the exchanges, your health insurance rates are going up. congressman phil roe is with us, republican from tennessee and a doctor in and of your own right, is that not correct? >> that's correct. 31 years. stuart: look, if obamacare is collapsing, there's no fix that's going to come along right after the election, so what does a collapsing health insurance system look like for the average person on the street? >> for those in the private health insurance market or that have medicare now, they're doing fairly well. it's the small group and individual market that's really

collapsing, and what collapsing means, stuart, is that the premiums have gotten totally out of control. in our state of tennessee, blue cross and blue shield was given a 62% increase, and they pulled out of memphis, nashville and chattanooga, the three largest markets in the state, leaving 130,000 uninsured. stuart: so that's the face of collapse. uninsured. >> and then what we do, what's even worse, then we fine you when you have only one option. and remember that the clinton, the aca plan, the affordable care act, wanted a public action so that there was a government option. well, they did that. they were called co-ops, and they put 23 of them up. one of them is in my state of tennessee. 17 of them are bankrupt, $2 billion gone. the six that are left are on the way out. stuart: so the face of collapse is what you're talking about. >> correct. stuart: no insurance, and you're fined because you don't have insurance. >> i find that the most most

appalling thing of all. we tell you what -- the government tells stuart varney what to buy. not what you need and afford, and then when you can't afford it, we fine you. stuart: well, there's no solution, is there? >> there is a solution. it's called an election, and we need to change people at the top finish. stuart: okay. let's assume donald trump is elected president of the united states. he wants to repeal and replace obamacare. you can't do that for at least a year. you can't do that. >> that's correct. so people understand this, there would have to be an offramp. you have to have a way off the current system. that's going to take a year to two years to do, because the individual and small group market's been literally destroyed, leveled by this -- stuart: so regardless of who wins the election -- >> you've got it for a while. stuart: -- what happens to those hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of people who are really messed up? >> i think you do away with the fine. stuart: you can do that quickly. >> absolutely. you don't penalize people, find them for it.

i find that amazing that we do that in this country. look, we hear about republicans don't have any ideas. i've helped write the republican alternative. it's a 193-page bill. stuart: okay. can you give it to us in a nutshell? >> you let people buy insurance across the state line, you let association health plans for low income people, you do an advance refundable tax credit, malpractice reform, and there are many other things we can do also. stuart: you know, the last one is surely the best one, malpractice reform. if you could really get a handle on these lawsuits that seem to -- well, you're a doctor. you know what your insurance is to guard against attacking lawyers. >> i'm actually worse, i'm an obstetrician. we have some of the highest premiums in the world. stuart: you do. >> in the state of tennessee we did malpractice reform. in the first two years it saved $100 million in a small state, and it did not affect the quality of care of patients whatsoever. stuart: no wonder lawyers back

democrats, but i digress. [laughter] you're also a veteran, i know that. >> i am. stuart: what do you think of the pentagon demanding the return of bonuses issued to soldiers who fought in afghanistan and iraq ten years ago? >> quick, i've been deployed. we make this right. that's ridiculous. when we get back after the election, i think republicans and democrats make this right. these were heroes that went to serve our country. it is absurd that they're now asking to get this money back. stuart: you think the democrats would do that? >> i think they better. stuart: that's different. [laughter] that's not the same. doctor, it was a pleasure having you on the show. you can come again anytime soon. >> thank you, stuart. stuart: do you often come to new york? >> couple times a year. stuart: don't be such a stranger. nice to see you, sir, thank you. next case, we're taking you to florida. mr. trump rallying there these past two days. we're speaking to people who are going to his rally this afternoon. we'll bring you that in a moment.

stuart: donald trump is spending a lot of time in florida.

early voting starts today. adam shapiro is with us from in st. augustine. adam, i want to ask you about shadow voting, people who say one thing to the pollsters and maybe do another in the voting booth. is that a factor in florida? >> reporter: it's a big factor especially along the i-4 corridor which is from tampa all the way up to a little bit south of st. augustine. 40% of the population lives in that area. these are people who have turned out for donald trump here in st. augustine for the rally in about three hours. republicans have requested as far as early mail-in votes, 745,000 ballots, in return, 503,000 democrats had requested 632,000 ballots. when you boil it down, it's not only what you call shadow voters, democrats who might cross over and vote republican,

but it's the people who identify not only as republican, but say this is one of the most important elections of their lifetime. listen to this person. >> i'm almost 60 years old, this is the first vote i've ever done. i've been registered most of my life, and nothing was ever important except this vote. >> reporter: forgive me, that was brenda, bill's wife. they are trump supporters, it's the first time she's ever voted. and as you take a look, there are going to be about 4,000 people here, stuart, all for donald trump. back to you. stuart: that's interesting, adam, because that looks like real excitement, a lot of trump supporters out there. i wonder if -- what was the equivalent outside of hillary clinton rally or speech? i mean, just -- she doesn't bring out the crowds like trump brings out the crowds that's right behind you, adam. >> reporter: you are correct about that. the clinton campaign rallies that we've attended in florida have been more subdued, and they are smaller.

they're about a thousand, maybe at tops two thousand people. this rally, the trump rallies you saw in west palm beach and last week and, of course, incredible passion and enthusiasm. the difference is that these supporters, they believe that the country's future absolutely is on the line, and if they lose, they're worried. stuart: okay, adam, good stuff. thanks very much for being with us, we will see you later this afternoon. more "varney" for you in a moment. never seen a rocket ship take off like this. [owner] i'm lindsey. i'm the founder of ezpz. my accountant... ...he's almost like my dad in this weird way. yeah, i'm proud of you. you actually did some of the things i asked you to do the other day (laughs). [owner] ha, ha, ha.

stuart: the clinton campaign will not address or talk about those leaked e-mails because, they say, they're stolen, so you can't talk about stolen material. however, they will talk about donald trump's leaked and stolen tax returns. kind of a contradiction. fox news' chris wallace asked the clinton's campaign robby mook about it. roll tape. >> the trump tax returns were stolen as well. you guys didn't object to that, in fact, you jumped all over it.

>> well, we don't know where those tax returns -- >> well, they were clearly stolen. >> we don't know. >> do you think that trump had given them -- >> i don't know. i don't know how they got to "the new york times." stuart: okay. look, it just goes on and on and on. they're getting away with it. they're just going right over the top of it. >> yeah. stuart: the e-mail scandal -- >> every day we get new revelations. that is a classic case of double standards, but you're right. but it just seems to me it just washes over the voters, they get a bit glassy-eyed, whatever. it's almost, maybe do they believe that donald trump is such a flawed candidate that it doesn't matter what they say about hillary clinton at this pointsome i hope not, because there should be a large amount of outrage as to these events that have taken place. stuart: i think the media has abdicated its responsibility to present the election in reasonable terms. >> well, there is coverage of the wikileaks and the e-mail server, but there certainly should be more coverage on the aggressive topspin coming out of

the clinton campaign about what goes on. so but trump, you have to say it again and again, you don't use the gettysburg site to talk about suing your accusers. you don't bring up rosie to o'donnell in a debate. it's unfortunate. stuart: donald trump has inflicted wounds upon himself. >> yes. stuart: he has shot himself in the foot. >> people don't trust him that he's not going to use the presidency to exact revenge on his enemies. he's going after paul ryan, he's gone after jeff bebe sos, and that's the fear. he's said he's going to put hillary clinton in prison. we've never seen that in a presidential debate. that scares people. stuart: and all the time the economy is slow -- >> yes. he has a great plan, stu, but because of his slip-ups and his repreoccupation with some of the issues that liz pointed out, we don't get to hear about the plan. bottom line is he's up against a media who doesn't like him and doesn't want him anywhere near the white house.

stuart: they think she has won. it's all over the media this morning. basically, she has won. >> it's his self-inflicted wounds. she has -- stuart: that's a big part of it. >> yeah. stuart: well, that was an interesting three-hour show, was it not? >> it was, indeed. stuart: thanks for joining us, everyone, your turn, neil. neil: thank you very much. at&t and time warner and the brushback, both companies seem to be facing right now. now, we should let you know that we, too, have put out calls to the heads of both of these organizations, randall stephenson over at at&t and jeffrey fiewx over at time warner. they have chosen not too this network. they have done some other networks, i understand they just got off dora the explorer, nick nickelodeon and the speed channel, but they did not opt to come here, and i wanted you to know that, because maybe we would have brought up what is happening right now. take a look at their stocks.
