the housing plan to make sure we have shelters down there, to make sure we work with the navy and everyone else trying to make sure that the residence down there has somewhere safe to say while they rebuild. right now we are working with everyone to bring our peace of the pie to the equation so we can quickly get down the inside have been said the red cross is here thanks to the generous donations of the american public. cheryl: two things. i know those across the country. what do you need specifically? is it they be clothing, diapers, shirts, what do you need? >> the one thing we talk about, something like this really inspires people to want to give. people may not have the money. they may not have the material things. so we just ask them to put a red cross.org and volunteer. they can actually become a red

cross and help those in need. cheryl: that's a great idea. we are leaving it on the really positive note. thank you, sir. trade for u.n. security council only kept the north of crude oil at the level of the last 12 months. oil of course is the lifeblood of funding and feeling nuclear weapons. but they do ban imports of all natural liquid. north korea expert jordan chang joining us now, columnist for "the daily beast" and author of nuclear showdown, north korea takes an hour or so excited. these are the strongest sanctions facing against north korea yet. the question is it's not everything the u.s. wanted. are they strong enough? >> i don't think they are strong enough. the reason is the chinese and russians want sanctions that are perhaps calibrated to bring north korea's to the bargaining table. north koreans have made it clear
5:38 am
that is the last thing they want to do right now because they want to basically develop their nukes and missiles and when they are confident their arsenal, they may be willing to talk to us. we want sanctions to prevent them from getting resources necessary to develop that and so therefore, the sanctions although better than the last that i will leap out from the u.n. since 2006 and clearly not working. lauren: that's a follow-up question. do you expect them to be ineffective, the compromise resolution. >> absolutely. we know that because nikki haley, our ambassador to the u.n. released that the u.s. proposal was and what has popped out in resolution 2375 is much weaker than what the u.s. sought. cities aren't going to do what we want them to do.
5:39 am
they will however please china and russia, which are really trying to protect their client, north korea. >> north korea will make the u.s. suffered the greatest pain because of the sanctions. but what do you expect the north korean response to be? i guess that in the backdrop of kim jong in, obviously cares for his people. i imagine continuing to do this to the international community could mean the obliteration of this nation. >> certainly. i'm not so sure the north korean leadership cares about the north korean people. what they do care about is the survival of the regime of course. they want to sell this stuff to the array and then to others and also they want to achieve and how to achieve the core goal of the north korean regime and that is the absorption of south korea. they want to take over south korea to intimidate as once they
5:40 am
feel they are in a position to do so. cheryl: korten shanker and thank you for your time. >> thank you. cheryl: quite a day for the stock market. easing tensions with north korea and the news, didn't do as much damage as expected. what will irma and heard the theme for the interest rate decision? we will ask jonathan hoenig. amazon wal-mart slashing the price of hillary clinton's new book. what happened to "what happened"? you are watching "fbn:am." horseheadswivellychair.com

5:46 am
harvey that's taken a plane now. with that being said, what does the fed do? would this mean the fed will not hike interest rates the rest of the year because of damage from hurricanes? >> you certainly got that sense coming into the storms, way down although they came up yesterday. i have to tell you it's an even bigger factor, the fact that we are due for a correction. it's been eight years since we've had the second longest bull market in history. the second strongest in history. with all these concerns in north korea, taxes, et cetera. keep chugging higher and higher. what eventually will burst that bubble could be decided, could be north korea. despite all of these headwinds. >> it's interesting you brought up tax reform because they are
5:47 am
kind of getting through the devastation at least for today. that will come back front and center for investors. still saying we'll have the bull market? >> it's almost easier to decipher what will happen with the hurricane. orange juice futures rise ahead of the storm fall with insurance companies and fell before the storm. if we don't get tax reform given how much money could be a real number for the stock market. they invest more of their money. cheryl: i love the optimism. coming up, opening night for monday night for all against the denver broncos to one. in baseball, cleveland indians keep their winning streak alive. jared max has your highlight.
