5:30 am
end to separations, sharp divisions remain in congress forcing republican lead toaster push to next week, vote on compromise immigration bill. >> we are going to put this vote off until next week and this will give us time to work out our differences, we have a lot of different. gerri: will a week be enough to work out differences, welcome to you both, great to have you, guys, here. let's just get, dive right into this, already this morning we are reporting that a lot of the kids have been returned to their families, many of them, hundreds of them, in fact, i think the real problem this morning is congress, this is not a group of people known for moving fast, man, what can we expect out of them? >> gerri, you're absolutely right and having been in the house republican conference,
5:31 am
diverse opinion within the conference, they are all driving towards the same thing, they want to honor the four pillars that the president layed out. we want to provide for the daca beneficiaries, we want to provide border security, for the wall, full funding, we want to end the visa lottery and modify significantly chain migration and now we have the increasing urgency of making sure that with deal with those seeking asylum more promptly so they really need to move on this. gerri: well, need to move and do move are two very different things for the congress as you know, but let's just get to details of that immigration bill that's in the cross hairs right now, details here included in the bill that ends separation of families, there's 23.4 billion for both the wall and security at the border, not included and this is what conservatives don't like the e-verify system to check workers' immigration status, but mustafa, i want to
5:32 am
get to this, executive order issued by@is causing confusion, will there be enough housing for detainees, what will happen to the children that have been sent to foster homes, seems to me like we have more questions than answers this morning even though the president, you know, gave out a pretty emphatic executive order? >> well, the president likes signing executive orders but doesn't have any details behind it. he did it in a rash way, he didn't really outline how the 2300 kids that are separated from their parents would come back. didn't talk about what would happen going forward, there are a lot of details in -- in governing that take place that should be thought through because your action affect people's lives, we can't govern by sound bites, if you govern you have to understand that what you say, what you do really impacts everyday americans and people around the world. ger gr i agree with you on that sound bites on both sides of the aisle, everybody sounding off about something. i do though want you to hear
5:33 am
something from congressman steve scalise, listen. >> you saw wide range of republicans voting yes. you didn't see one democrat voting yes, clearly democrats don't want the issue, they want to keep exploiting kids and other people. we want to solve this problem. gerri: anne can any democrats sign onto this, support any of this or use this as whipping post? >> gerri, they should sign on especially compromise bill because sounds like the compromise bill is going to contain the daca provisions for eventual path to citizenship. if you look at democrats, senator feinstein and schumer over the years they have advocated for stricter immigration controls. gerri: they are on both sides of
5:34 am
the issues. >> right, the very problems that they refuse to help solve now, it's complete hypocrisy and it is politicizing this issue to the detriment of everybody who wants to -- gerri: making this more complicated, trump's tweet yesterday, i will read this thing, mustafa, what is the purpose of house doing immigration bill when you need nine votes of democrats by the senate and the dems are only looking to obstruct which they feel is good for midterms, republicans must get rid of filibuster rule is killing you. this was interpreted as reason if you didn't want to vote yes and you're republican, go ahead and not do that, seems to me it's just so frustrating to watch this, you know, everybody seems to be, you know, sounding off and it's all sound and furry, signifying nothing, what do you say? >> republican voters should be infuriated and frustrate and reject the republicans in 2018 election. [laughter] gerri: but what about the tweet?
5:35 am
>> you're not getting what you want. you cannot govern -- if you're asking for democratic vote when you control the majority of votes in house of representatives you can't deliver your own caucus, how can you expect people to come work with you when you can't be consistent on everything. gerri: we are run ugh out of time but you make good point, the republicans can't hang together on this and hence my concern over congress getting anything done at all. anne, mustafa thank you for coming on today, appreciate your time. >> thank you. >> thank you. tracee: big story we are watching, european union rolling out tariffs on more than $3 billion on american products in response to u.s. tariffs on steel and aluminum import, what kind of impact can investors expect, senior analyst joins us now, good morning? >> good morning, tracee, thanks for having me on. what is your advice after trade

5:37 am
export dominant country that it was in the past. export is a percentf gdp in china have been cut in half since financial crisis, used to be 40% and now 20%. on the flip side, the u.s. has a lot of leverage right now, economists predict that we will grow at 5% this quarter, 3% for the year and, you know, let's not snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, things are going great right now in the u.s. economy, let's not get into a full-blown trade war with other countries. tracee: i want to mention parent of mercedes warnings that earnings will be affect bid weaker sales in china. do you expect any more fallout among european automakers in. >> there's also other retail companies, technology companies that are warning the administration about getting into full-blown trade war. i'm sure they are listening, i'm confident that the trump administration is worried about a market setback if anything that's one thing pedestal they have been talk about since the
5:38 am
administration took over and we have seen in the past where we have a short-term setback and negative news headlines and becomes catalyst for move higher for the market. tracee: all right, ian, thank you so much for joining us this friday morning. >> thanks for having me. gerri: more than 30 children transport today hospitals after falling ill at summer camp, what's to the kids there? close look at how oil prices are impacted ahead of opec meeting, let's take a look at u.s. stock market futures, dow up 110, nasdaq up 30. you're watching fbn:am brighthouse financial

build. we are watching your wallet this as opec meet in viena in the next couple of days, patrick, joins us now, patrick, great to see you as always. you know, we are seeing an interesting scenario with the meeting here and it doesn't typically happen this way, iran is throwing a wrench into the process here, opec wants to lift production, opec doesn't want that to happen. what do you see happening? >> well, good morning, and it's great to see you again. well, you know, that's the interesting part of this all, of course, it was just a couple of months before president trump pulled out of iran deal, 60 or 65-dollar oil that's fine with us, the saudis that were calling prices to be higher, now we are in role reversal and iran is like you said throwing wrench in some of the negotiations. it'll be interesting to see if the saudis, perhaps, press on and lead opec to higher output but then, again, the iran maybe subject to sanctions here.
5:44 am
it's going to be interesting dynamic to see how they play order, there's a lot of different agendas right now especially with saudi ramco perhaps ipo in the future, so you probably will see jut putin creas, i don't know how opec will get there or what it may look like but arguably demand globally continues to increase and so i think we will actually see a net increase maybe 500,000-barrels a day but look for -- look for the saudis to lead this. gerri: increase in production to drop prices here. i wanted to tell folks when we were showing screen before, oil was actually up after ending lower, oil was up 85 cents, up about 1% and let's look at gas prices right now, regular at 2.86, patrick, this is what you guys have been known for, looking at the gas prices on the street, what do you see happening and especially in the wake of this meeting? >> well, i think what we are seeing now is oil prices
5:45 am
rallying a sign of little of anxiety in the market and it almost feel like now even if there is an increase of 6-figure, 6 hiking user, whether it'd be 600 or 700, gas prices may see little relief at least now. keep in mind the saudis have said this will take a couple of months to ramp up if we do. so that would bring additional oil to the market close to the end of summer driving season so we may not see a whole lot of relief to gas prices and if we see a smaller cut than expected could actually see gas prices go up a slight amount in the weeks ahead. gerri: that would be the high in your view? >> depending if there's no cut, i would foresee 3-dollar a gallon level that would be disappointment in the market, if we do get increase over a million barrels, we may see some relief in gas prices, maybe at best 260's, 270's, this is something motorists should

5:57 am
