8:00 pm
republican party so rancidly corrupt that they won't stand up. no one should mistake that fact that that's the reason this president is having so much trouble. that's it for us tonight. thanks for being with us. see you tomorrow. good night. kennedy: president trump is firing back pat north korea's nuclear threats with tough talk. mitch mcconnell says it isn't that congress isn't getting anything done, it's that the president expects too much. chris stirewalt is here on the congress passing the bucks. charter schools are forcing public schools around them to step up their game. there may seem to be confusion in our response to the ongoing north korean threat from the fat faced little weirdo. we have heard from our secretary
8:01 pm
of state that americans should sleep tight at night. it's our own dear leader who has the strongest message of all. >> they will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen. kennedy: perhaps the president is speaking in bold and direct terms. he also speaks fluent sociopath. the president's opponents are up in arms that he's basically threatening a nuclear holocaust. aren't they asking for an extreme rhetorical shift that might throw the pudgy strongman off his game for a minute? no one wants a nuclear war. no one. it's messy and loud. this might be a time where the president's seeming impulsivity,
8:02 pm
he could outbully and overinsult north korea long enough to change the game so we don't all lose. other than that, get a boob job and buy a hot car because we are all going to die. i'm kennedy. north korea can now attach miniaturized nuclear warheads to their missiles and yesterday they threatened to attack guam. james mattis put out a stern statement that said quote they should cease any actions that would lead to the end of its regime and the destruction of its people.
8:03 pm
secretary of state rex tillerson said americans shouldn't worry. gordon chang joinss. welcome back. what concerns you the most of here? >> i'm concerned about secretary tillerson walking back president trump's comments. i think there was some purpose behind what trump did. there was a message to north korea to reinforce the notion of deterrence. when kim jong-un gets confident about his arsenal. he will blackmail us and break the treaty between himself and seoul, and get our troops off the peninsula. but the second message, this was even more important was to china.
8:04 pm
trump has lost patience with the chinese. what he was saying was there is going to be a war on your doorstep if you don't rein in your korean friend. trump saying we are the strongest nation. that wasn't directed at korea. that's china. kennedy: sebastian gorka said the u.s. is not just a super power, the u.s. is a hyper power. there has to be messaging to china. my question is with the sanctions vote, the unanimous vote, what did the u.s. do right in terms of china to get them on board where in the past they blocked those sanctions? >> we put pressure on beijing to get them there but we gave up a lot. we postponed the trade investigation and china's
8:05 pm
intellectual property abuse. and we did other things and postponed into the future we shouldn't have done. we lopped off $1 billion of legal export income. ambassador haley says the north koreans use their exports for their weapons program. and it doesn't include what iran pays north korea for their illicit cooperation. when you go to the dentist he doesn't take out a little bit of cavity. he goes for everything. that's what the youth should do. we should go for everything we have at once. kennedy: do you mean militarily? >> i mean cutting off all of their funding. what when did with the u.n.
8:06 pm
security vote. kennedy: you are saying we should go to iran and the regime that's starving its own people. >> we haven't touched the chinese banks. we went after a small one june 29. but the largest chinese banks have been doing the same thing and they are untouched. that's a bad signal. we are saying to the chinese, we don't care that much about north korea despite what we say because we are not going to exercise any political will and do what is necessary. when the history of this period is written, they are not going to talk about north korea. they will say all these republicans, democrats,
8:07 pm
liberals, conservatives. bipartisan fail euf our over several decade. you talk to people in washington, they are saying everyone is going to go to the bridge, then they will bash in a solution. that's probably right, but that's not the way to do it. kennedy: that's scary because i think north korea has a different version of what the bridge is. the president's fiery remarks yesterday drew the ire of lawmakers on both sides of the aisle. john mccain took to twitter to tout our nuclear cars mall. writing my first order as president was to renovate and modernize our nuclear arsenal it's now far strong and more powerful than ever before. hopefully we'll never have to use this power. but there will never be a time when we are not the most of
8:08 pm
powerful nation in the world. abby huntsman is here, dave smith, joined by comedian jimmy failla. decorated author and writer of several books. including a children's book in the fall. dave, you think the president's language was wrong. >> we have a president in george w. bush who loves this stuff, dead or alive. kennedy: no one has done this with north korea. >> when he did this it ended in hundreds of thousands of people dying. we did fight a war with north korea where americans died. any rational person would go in with let's make sure people
8:09 pm
don't die. kennedy: kim jong-un is talking like a psychopath. >> i don't know if that's the way to play it. but the idea that we should starve this administration out, all these sanctions, all this stepped up pressure doesn't starve the administration. it starves the same people he's basically holding hostage. just like iran with these sanctions. you end up hurting the people. that's what you will get. all the people you supposedly want to protect you will starve to death. kennedy: if we give them money they will spend it on a nuclear program. >> no one but us has ever used nuclear weapons before. kennedy: i agree that's the last thing we want to do.
8:10 pm
>> i think we have looked at how to handle it but we haven't been tough enough. if he didn't have strong rhetoric he would be getting killed from the left, the right, and the media. you are dealing with an irrational person in charge of north korea. i think this rhetoric is direct more at china and north korea. the alternative is going to war. kennedy: i don't think we should give up on china. but you are saying you shouldn't criticize the president for talking tough. >> as a football guy i appreciate that rah-rah sentiment. i just don't like where he's talking tough. when you are making military threats from a golf course.
8:11 pm
if i was giving workout tips at a hot dog stand. you know what you have got to do. it doesn't quite work the same way. i think they need to be talked to because like i said, if the ultimate goal is to prevent war, we are losing that window rapidly. they are going to blow up guam. >> i think this is craziness. we are in the longest wars in american history. we briebt poorest kid amongst us to fight these wars. we can't fight. >> the war. the fact that we are talking about we have the greatest bombs. the only time the media has been nice to trump is when he start bombing the third world. everybody at cnn loves the explosion. this is insanity. kennedy: i agree there are a lot of hawks in the democratic
8:12 pm
party, just as many in the republican party. but there is a difference when you talk tough and slap someone down verbally who has 0 nuclear weapons. >> that's the situation. he's holding a bunch of his own people hostage and pointing missiles at south korea where we don't want people to die. i don't think in that situation you start insulting the guy. kennedy: that's the only language he understands. obama dropped bombs and threatened north korea. and president bush called them the axis of evil. >> president trump doesn't seem like the kind of person who doesn't follow through with the red line. his rhetoric is very vague.
8:13 pm
kennedy: he's not ready to back up what he's saying. >> he's dealing with something so complicated, you can't talk about that in a tweet. rex tillerson said you can sleep well at night. i don't feel that. >> i remember conservatives celebrating george w. bush's tough talk. dead or alive. kennedy: no one wants nuclear war. >> i don't think you are right about that. people do want war. kennedy: war and nuclear war. >> we had a nuclear war once and people wanted it. >> sometimes a war or strike is almost preventative. today we are talking on the anniversary of nagasaki. as awful as it was, it probably
8:14 pm
in the long run prevented more casualties. >> the war was over, the nazis were defeated. >> if war is the way to go and our people want to fight it, i'll volunteer to drive them to the airport. kennedy: north korea, china knows that. so what will bring a conclusion to this nonsense. >> north korea knowing that. i don't know that north korea knows that. >> they have more capability than they ever have of reaching this nation. >> i think that north korea is falling apart in a lot of ways. i think while it's unwinding, what we don't want to do is throw rocks at this situation. we want this to unwind in some type of reasonable manner. they don't want to die the way qaddafi did. if he gets scared of that
8:15 pm
happening, he might launch a nuke. >> the party panel returns. first up. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell says the president can't meet the expect them to meet his expectations. why should over two hundred years of citi history matter to you? well, because it tells us something powerful about progress: that whether times are good or bad, people and their ideas will continue to move the world forward. as long as they have someone to believe in them. citi financed the transatlantic cable that connected continents. and the panama canal, that made our world a smaller place. we backed the marshall plan that helped europe regain its strength.
8:16 pm
and pioneered the atm, for cash, anytime. for over two centuries we've supported dreams like these, and the people and companies behind them. so why should that matter to you? because, today, we are still helping progress makers turn their ideas into reality. and the next great idea could be yours. ♪ [brother] any last words?

i even accept i have a higher risk of stroke due to afib, i accept i take easier trails than i used to. a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. but no matter what path i take, i go for my best. so if there's something better than warfarin, i'll go for that too. eliquis. eliquis reduced the risk of stroke better than warfarin, plus had less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis had both. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily... ...and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. i'm still going for my best. and for eliquis. ask your doctor about eliquis.

8:19 pm
kennedy: d.c. lawmakers are tucked safe and sound in their own districts for the august recess. and republicans are getting an earful on their failure to pass healthcare. they will have their plates full when they return in september with tax reform, addressing the debt ceiling and figuring out a spending plan. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell says it's not congress' fault. >> our new president has not been in this line of work before. and i think had excessive expectations about how quickly things happen in the democratic process. and so part of the reason i think people feel like we are under performing is because too
8:20 pm
many kind of artificial deadlines unrelated to the reality of the complexity of legislating may not have been fully understood. kennedy: the reality of the complexities and she persisted. the president responded by tweeting, senator mitch mcconnell said i have excessive spec taightss. but i don't think so. after 7 years of hearing repeal and replace, why not done? is senator mcconnell passing the buck? let me bring in chris stirewalt. let us discuss senate majority leader mitch mcconnell. is he wise to be starting a feud with the white house when congress is taking a very unpopular long recess. chris: my old daddy said you can be right and you can be happy, but usually not both.
8:21 pm
mitch mcconnell is right but he won't be happy now that he said that and the president has been aware of it by people on his staff who would like him to take a tougher stance against his adopted party. kennedy: is he right about the fact that the president doesn't have political and legislative experience and the timelines imposed from the outside made it impossible to get any work done. chris: they just wasted too much of their effort. kennedy: doesn't the majority leader bear some responsibility for that. chris: sure. if you say we are going to build a rocket ship and go to the moon, it has to be done on thursday, you say we cannot get to the moon. neither of us are aerospace engineers. it will take us longer than that. if we try to beat the deadline
8:22 pm
and build something that doesn't work. we wasted the week and we'll have to start over again from scratch. kennedy: starting over from scratch is a big task. however, what if every single person involved in the process had run on the idea that they were engineers but they had 7 years to come up with plans to build a rocket ship, and while they were busy working in their laboratories we thought on you great. they are building rocket ships. when the time comes to launch they will be ready. chris: the person they nominated for their party and the person who got elected president didn't agree with the mission. the republicans had been moving down one path, the repeal of obamacare. kill it, make it impossible to function, then replace it with some version of what they offered in 2008 and 2012, some
8:23 pm
state based. then they said nobody will lose their coverage. the republicans said that's kind of what our plan is about. kennedy: he wants to build a bigger rocket ship. chris: or something totally different than they had been working on. kennedy: who is going to pay the price ultimately. >> the people of the country. people who lose health insurance or their rates go up. the more deeply even meshed, the federal government with each of the mistakes its makes of a varied and man fold fashion, each mistake will hurt more each each time. >> i think mitch mcconnell had a say in setting that docket. one of the criticisms is they shouldn't have started with healthcare.
8:24 pm
then he said let's start with taxes. if victory was so shaky they never should have started with that. mitch mcconnell should have been able to take the temperature of his caucus and know he was doomed for failure. it appears he did not do that. i think he will pay the price perhaps with his leadership. coming up. president trump says law and order will help stop the opioid addiction crisis. an brought back a slogan from the 80s. the panel returns to debate the drug war after the break. to br. so to breathe better, i go with anoro. ♪go your own way copd tries to say, "go this way." i say, "i'll go my own way" with anoro. ♪go your own way once-daily anoro contains two medicines called bronchodilators,

8:28 pm
is something called "akathisia." it's time we took notice. kennedy: there is a culture war brewing in silicon valley silencing voices on the right. the memo is serving as a rallying cry for conservatives who long believed companies like google shame their employees into group think. they say google fired an employee who simply spoke the truth.
8:29 pm
welcome back, mollie. so let's talk about this. you are saying and i think you rightly point out. what we have been seeing on college campuses and people have documented on the right and left as completely absurd, is bleeding into the corporate environment. how is this dangerous? >> corporations should have the right to affiliate with whomever they want to. it's not a first amendment issue. but there is a cultural issue around the first amendment. if we have laws that give people the right to speak truth but don't have a culture that allows them to speak truth. a lot of people are saying he should have the right to say something that's different from what the company says. but the's even more true when what you are saying is factual and accurate. understanding there are distinctions between men and women and these biological
8:30 pm
distinctions can have significant effects on the career decisions you make, that many just reality. that's backed up by silence, logic and social science. to make it so you can't say something like that is chilling. kennedy: what's also interesting, and you pointed this out, is how the media portrayed the story. instead looking at the contents of the memo, what the former google employee said. they created their own narrative and put words in this mouth. >> i saw on tv that he argued women shouldn't be near a computer. that's not what he said. he said there are differences and if you don't acknowledge the reality. you will have less diverse programs. it's also true that google was asking for input.
8:31 pm
so when you ask for those things and fire people for not saying what you want them to say, it's out of a dystopian fiction. kennedy: we are going to have an open dialogue. let's fix this problem. where should we start. someone gives you a roadmap. what does it do for conservatives in tech? does it galvanize them and create more supporters for the president? >> it's how you get a president like trump elected. but overall it's a chilling thing. everybody gets this message whether they work in tech or anywhere else. if they have views that deviate from this he sleet totalitarian group think you will lose your job.
8:32 pm
we are in a culture where people are no longer toll rants of hearing different opinions and engage those opinions and reacting to them. that's something that can make people feel isolated and contribute to a demise of freedom. kennedy: google is also the great guardian of information. thank you so much. our president trump made the war on opioid addiction a key part of his campaign. yesterday he shared his strategy for winning the war. >> the best way to prevent drug addiction and overdose is to prevent people from abusing dplughts first place. if they don't start they won't have a problem. if they do start it's awfully tough to get off. kennedy: most of people start on a different avenue. he also called for stronger law
8:33 pm
enforcement and stronger anti-messaging for kids. is it time to do something more immediate and declare a national emergency as the white house's oap void commission recommended last week? the party panel returns. i'm going to start with you, dave. i think what you are seeing is the effect of a multi decade war on drugs. it's obvious from some of the members. from law enforcement. immigration and some of the gangs that coalesce in this country that that war has failed. >> the fact that we are having a conversation about the opioid crisis after 40 years of a drug war. the idea that trump would say the answer is law enforcement. it reminds me of saying the answer is government spending.
8:34 pm
if this could fix a problem we would have that problem fixed. when trump says don't start doing drugs is a good way not to get addicted to drugs. this is what libertarians get and nobody else gets. if you are arguing about the government's role, the only conversation is should we be throwing people in cages for this. kennedy: we see the failure of obamacare and now, you see progressives calling for medicare for all when we have seen government failure. >> i would have liked to have seen little moral emotion from the president talking about this issue. we have been dealing with this for years and years. i had somebody in my family i lost from drugs. it's emotional, it's heartbreaking, thousands of lives have been lost the last few years. listening to him affect, i was surprised by that.
8:35 pm
so i think it needs a lot more national attention. kennedy: he also experienced addiction in his family. i think it is social is concerned about. whether you declare a national emergency. i'm not sure that's going to solve the problem. >> i do agree part of the problem is overprescription. 38% of society is currently running with an opioid prescription. i only know that because while buying from them. no, realistically it is a big problem. kennedy: that's how a lot of those things start. people can't afford pills on the street. heroin is a lot cheaper and drug cartels are flooding the u.s. markets with it because we cut into their demand with legal pot.
8:36 pm
>> there are people you would not expect to have this addiction. >> his own commission that he commissioned that was run by chris christie at the white house. you probably should declare a national emergency. they are no, i'm good. it's like when you ask the waiter, what's good here, and he gives you three recommendations and you say i will have the grilled cheese. kennedy: thank you so as much. coming up, liberals can argue against charter schools all they want. a new study shows the left is wrong when they down play the choice. how many kids are in charter schools waitlists? usaa to me means
8:37 pm
peace of mind. we had a power outage for five days total. we lost a lot of food. we actually filed a claim with usaa to replace that spoiled food. and we really appreciated that we're the webber family and we are usaa members for life.

rethink your allergy pills. flonase sensimist allergy relief helps block 6 key inflammatory substances with a gentle mist. most allergy pills only block one.
8:40 pm
and 6 is greater than one. flonase sensimist. ♪ kennedy: welcome back. before the break i asked how many children are on what it list for charter schools nationwide. the answer is in fact 1 million kids waiting to get into charter schools. and you know why so many are on the list? it's because charter schools work. an analysis of new york city schools shows that not only are charter schools producing better results for their students, they are increasing performances of other public schools around
8:41 pm
them. the study of 900,000 kids from grades 3-5 within a mile after charter school saw increased scores in math and reading and public schools that shared buildings with charters has more student advancing to the next grade. joining us, david bow boast. -- david bose. charter schools have been shown to be beneficial and are raising the performance of public schools around them. what explains that? >> what public schools said, chatter schools said public schools are monopolies. but if they had real competition
8:42 pm
they would get better because everybody gets better when they have competition. i always had my doubts about that. will government agencies get better just because people have a choice? this study suggests there is some evidence they do get a little bit better. not a whole lot. this is not the first study where we found this. other studies found where you introduce choice for parent, public schools do try to up their game. kennedy: there are powerful forces against school choice. not just charter schools. but school choice in general from across deputy is and unions. but there are two other studies that follow charter school students. at first they showed that the very first year a child was introduced into a charter school their performance would go down.
8:43 pm
and studies like this have to be longer term. in successive years their performance increased and often times supersede those of their public school counterparts. >> it's always disruptive. if you move your kid to a different school during the school year, they may have a little trouble adjusting, they have to get used to flue friend, new teachers. so there is some disruption of their education there. maybe that's what you see in those studies. but after three years or so you find they are doing better. this just makes sense. everything works better when there is competition, when there is choice. in the first place, you may like your hamburgers different from the way i like mine and therefore we can both be happier if there is more than one hamburger joint. but each one of those hamburger places has to be concerned we
8:44 pm
might go to the other one if we don't keep doing a good job. sometimes you can't even test for the positive. but what i will tell you is parent who send their kid to these schools, by and large they are much happier. and the variety of metrics when we measure all of the outcome. coming up, there is a bicycle bandit on the loose and he has been robbing cabbies. we'll chase it down.

8:57 pm
completely covered by the moon. what makes this so notable? the shadow will cross through the entire continent of north america. the last time it happened was 99 years ago. which makes this the eclipse of the century. dr. michio kaku, welcome back. this is very exciting. you are about eclipses here and there. but this one is a once in a lifetime event, it sounds like. >> this is an eclipse you will talk to your grandkids about. it was 99 years ago in 1918 that a total ellipse went across the u.s.a. and it won't happen again for decades. the animals are going to be freaked out. birds will cease chirping.
