"fbn:am" says right now. train 25:01 a.m. in new york in wednesday, august 16th. a lot of things to discuss this morning. i'm cheryl casone. lauren: good morning. i am lauren simonetti. we want to dive right in. train to its incredible what's happened in the last 12 hours. lauren: breaking news the day after donald trump condemned white supremacist by name and is now back to blaming both sides for the deadly violence over the

weekend. listen to what the president said late yesterday at trump tower. >> the driver of the car is a disgrace to himself, his family and this country. you can call it terrorism. you can call it murder. you can call it whatever you want. i would just call it the fastest one to come up with a good verdict. that's what i call it. what about blood came charging. do they have any semblance of guilt? what about the fact they came charging was swinging clubs, do they have any problem? i think they do. that was a horrible, horrible day. wait a minute, i'm not finished. i'm not finished, fake news. mr. bannon came on very late. you know that. i went through 17 governors, senators and one of the primaries.

mr. bannon came much later than that and i liked him. he's a good man. he is not a racist. i can tell you that. he's a good person. you have a group on one site that was bad in a grip on the other side there was also very violent and nobody wants to say that. i'll say right now. you have a group on the other side they came charging in without a permanent and they were very, very violent. i've condemned neo-train for. not all those people were trained for. not all of those for white supremacists. many of those people were there to protest the taking down of the statute of robert e. lee. they speak is robert e. lee. i noticed stonewall jackson is coming down. is it george washington next week and thomas jefferson the week after? you have to ask yourself where

does it stop? there is a group on this site. you just call them the last comment that came vitally attacking the other group. you can say which you want, but that's the way it is. there's blame on both sides and i have no doubt about it and you don't have any doubt about it either. george washington was a slave owner. so we'll george washington now lives -- excuse me, are we going to take down statues of george washington? how about thomas jefferson? do you like him? because he was a major slaveowner. you had people, not talking about the neo-nazis or the white nationalists because they should be condemned totally. many people in that group other than neo-nazis and white nationalists. the press has treated them absolutely unfairly.

there are two sides to this story. i thought was a horrible moment for our country. but there are two sides. lauren: guy was a press conference supposed to be about infrastructure. he got about two dozen questions. one is on infrastructure and the president plans to leave trump tower in new york city new york city for bedminster, new jersey for he will meet with small-business owners. trade to the president's remarks really the talk of twitter. the president's words getting harsh reaction. we must be clear white supremacy is repulsive. bigotry is counter to all this country stands for. there can be no moral ambiguity. republican senator marco rubio treated this. you can't allow #white supremacists to share blame. there is a lot more on twitter, including president barack obama street which is now the most

retreated to eat either and most liked in history. >> both sides distancing themselves from what happened yesterday. in a letter to employees because ceos are talking about this. watch the events from president trump over the weekend. he missed a critical opportunity to bring our country together but unequivocally reject dean. mcmillan will continue to serve on the white house advisory council and economic development six business leaders have resigned from those advisory councils. here they are. merck ceo kenneth frazier, under armor, the alliance for american manufacturing stop all afl-cio richard trumka and deputy chief of staff cle. trained to do regards at the trump administration. president trump has to take the

next white house communications director because he lives vacated by anthony scaramucci. the daily caller reported job was offered the job toe pick and choose except today. she's been withdrawn since the early days of the campaign. she's been working behind the scenes on the press team. president trump fired anthony scaramucci 10 days after he took over the position from former press secretary sean spicer. hope has been with the trumps family for even longer. she first worked with ivanka trump all before the election started in the campaign kicked in. she's very close to the family. lauren: we'll see if she has any influence in controlling the narrative. he wasn't supposed to take questions yesterday and then he gave. the congressional budget office said they are going up 20% next

year. subsidies paid to insurers under the law to insurers and supporters of the affordable care of. federal payments needed to support individual insurance markets but president trump ensures that could stop subsidies have raised premiums or leave the individual market. a programming note for you. i'm schapiro laskin grady about health care as well as tax reform during a live interview today at 12:00 p.m. eastern right here on fox business. cheryl: secretary of state rex tillerson says the united states remains interested in north korea. the next step is up to kim jong un. >> we continue to be interested in finding a way to dialogue. cheryl: comments after they fired missiles towards the u.s. territory of guam. the kim jong un released by the

official news takes a rare plant in effect in the army strategic forces. the u.s. and south korea will hold on the u.s. but until monday. many are of course strongly opposed to any action by the door. at least for now we see a pause in the rhetoric and markets have been celebrated not. lauren: that's one of the reasons that have developed three days in a row. not doing any jail time that a court hearing last month. cheryl: tracee carrasco jury tracee carrasco jury disregarded other headlines. reporter: good morning, ladies. martin shkreli who made headlines when he raised the price of its aids drug by 5000% was found guilty and to put the security guard at one point the security for another incident. in an exclusive interview on warnings with berea with maria

bartiromo says he will repeal charges won't do any jail time. listen to what he said. >> i don't think i'll have to forfeit any money. don't think i'm going to jail. we saw a major insider trading case the other day settled by the ftc. no jail time. just a settlement to either settlement to neither admitted nor denied wrongdoing. hundreds and hundreds of fcc cases never get brought to the criminal division. no one gets arrested. trade to yesterday when he was armed with berea, this had nothing to do with the drug company. people seem to get that confused. lauren: or maybe he was innocent. he said they made money. he is still saying he didn't do anything wrong. cheryl: he was very clear about that yesterday appeared amazon and brick and mortars doors.

what's going on? reporter: amazon not trying to outdo itself came up with a way to be overnighted same-day delivery. how about getting your order in two. and now operates available for order online. is like snacks, drinks will be available after two minutes after they've been ordered. the instead pick up watched at the university of california campuses in los angeles and berkeley will come to atlanta, columbus ohio college park, maryland. lauren: is starting to sound a little gimmicky to me. the movie ticket sales are pretty weak. a company was to drive more theatergoers placated of the task to go to the movies as much as you want. they receive way, though. felt like a good idea but of

course hours after movie pass, a subscription-based service that allows customers to see a movie, amc theaters thread legal action. movie pass is not good for moviegoers, movie theaters and movies studio spirit is started at $15 went up to $50 depending on usage but they finally decided on $10. shares dropped after passes priced the announcement to put 5% of $13.25. cheryl: good for consumers at the end of the day. thank you so much. we've got a very busy morning right now. coming up, more reaction for you. president trump's combative new news conference in new york city yesterday. >> you with a group of the other side they can charge and without a permit and they were very, very violent.

question had nothing to do with it. it just went downhill from there. it was painful to watch. they were very antagonistic in word and excel. lauren: what do you think, kristen? >> u.s. a mistake to talk about charlottesville. he made a very bold and definitive statement about charlottesville on monday. >> you change the narrative on monday and reverted back last may. my question for u.s. question for you as we move forward is where do we go from here and how do they get back on the agenda talking about the great announcements he made on infrastructure yesterday. >> i think trump needs to focus on the agenda and uniting people moving forward. i have to take issue with the way the media is recovering them as though they are censored a reversal on monday. i'm not sure how denouncing all violence from all groups reverses comments from monday in

which he condemned white supremacists. the media coverage is unfair, but trump should not have fallen into a trap by talking about charlottesville again. got a focus on the agenda. lauren: he was very clear yesterday and denouncing white supremacist is what they are. yet we see many republicans distanced themselves from the president, particularly on social media. >> i can understand that. i can't wrap my head around it. i don't know why they need to go that direction unless they are just caving in to the pressure at home. i'm from a purple state myself, so i know the pressure can happen tremendously on either side. it's almost like you are darned if you do, darned if you don't. i would hate to see republicans support the president and if they don't, just be quiet about it and move on. go worry about the upcoming does.

>> there's a lot of go worry about tax reform. no need to put your 2 cents in on everything go situation. >> we don't have much time left. it shows many cities right now that are considering removing statues and monuments that are considered symbols. just to put this in perspective, there were 718 confederate statues and monuments, 109 public schools. names for robert e. lee and jefferson davis. do we take all of these down? there's a big political push particularly on the last to take take these monuments down. does not erase the interchange in history? >> atco when you start pulling down historical statues, you start going down a slippery slope is what happens when we remove all the confederate statues? thomas jefferson owned slaves. we remove all statues of timer

that regard. you had a group on one side that was bad in a group on the other side also very violent and nobody wants to say that. i'll say it right now. you have a group on the other side they came charging in without a permit and they were very, very violent. i've condemned neo-nazis. i've condemned many different groups, but not all of those people were neo-nazis. believe me. not all those people were white supremacists. many of those people were there to protest the taking down of the statue of robert e. lee. this week is property of the period known as it while jackson is coming down. i wonder is a george washington next week and thomas jefferson the week after? you have to ask yourself, where does this stop? as a group on the side. you've can call them the left that came violently attacking the other group.

you can say what you want, but that's the way it is. there's blame on both sides and made no doubt about it and you don't have any doubt about it either. george washington was a slave owner. so will george washington now lose his status? are we going to take down -- excuse me, are we going to take statues of george washington? how about thomas jefferson? would he think of thomas jefferson? do you like them? he was a major slave owner. you had people come in not talking about the neo-nazis and the white nationalist because they should be condemned totally. yet many people in that group other than neo-nazis and white nationalist. there are two sides to a story. i thought what took place was a horrible moment for our country. a horrible moment, but there are

groundbreaking. what i'm really looking for is some sense of how many fed governors, how many fed presidents are now believed inflation is too low. it's a persistent problem. we've seen some of the softer inflation numbers over the last few weeks that the probability of a rate hike in december has dropped. not to zero, but pretty darn close to it. we are not in that camp. we still believe inflation numbers will firm up by the end of the year. economic numbers of pretty solid. the last two months we had more than 200,000 jobs. cheryl: you are seeing this despite the fact that the administration agenda is up in arms right now. the debt ceiling coming. nothing happened on health care. tax reform is blind in the wind right now. you're still feeling solid in your projections? >> in terms of the debt ceiling
