"fbn:am" continues right now. we are coming up on 5:30 a.m. in new york and it is thursday, august 16th. good morning, everyone in cheryl casone. lauren: good morning. i'm lauren simonetti. feeling spacey this morning. big breaking news will resume trade talks with the u.s. and germany progress be made between the two countries.

conservative columnist kristin tape. liking what were seen as you can see the dow triple digit on the news about trade talks. it looks to me they are charting to bow to the pressure of these tariffs that we have already begun to impose on them. >> absolutely. the economy grew by six by 9% last year projected to shrink a bit busier. six by 5% growth will continue into 2019. it's in the best interest that they do negotiate with the u.s. and reopen the line of communications as well as the trade. cheryl: this is something president trump has been very upfront and honest about this negotiation. a tweety put on when the about this. next thing you know we get the talks. the terrorist are now leaking of

two great new trade deals as opposed to horrible in unfair trade deals i inherited is your president. other countries should not come in and steal the wealth of our great u.s.a. no longer. as the president's plan working? >> this is definitely a good sign. we saw trump's tactic work with the e.u. however, fundamental difference between the u.s., e.u. and u.s.-china conflicts. trade between allies. the second is more of a structural conflict is centered around china's rapid technological advances that are really built on flagrant ip theft. there are some differences, but i'm not surprised china has come back to the table. meanwhile, china's economy is plummeting, faltering, the stock market is going down in any kind of recession could lead to civil unrest which would be a nightmare for china. >> exactly.

that's a good point. you mentioned the economy they are. were already seen the pressure is already effect in their currency. they were devaluing their currency and fairly. we always find equal playing field with the chinese in the yuan. now we might get it. >> absolutely. that's one of the four things will be focusing on. obviously to bring down the tariffs, to reduce the pressure in order to review a lot of the intellectual property. also, to open up to foreign markets to companies. bring it back to pre-take care from the negotiation. the chinese basically had been lowering their currency to offset the effects of the potential terrorist that the u.s. to push it back a. >> i don't want to jump too far add your talks aren't even on the books yet.

we know that someone on a lower level will come over from china. that's all we know at this point. what about differences in the admin is ration. you've got the trade representative but on the other side. light has there the one putting up the stairs and were scheduled to have midterms put in place august 23rd right around the corner. would you make of the political split we see in the admin is ration? >> i suspect it's a good thing to have people in the administration approaching this from different angles but we don't go to extreme one way or the other. one thing they all can agree on is that leveling the playing field so that it's truly fair to both parties. it is really not just a win for the u.s., but for china as well. you need to have threats of a full-blown trade war otherwise china has no incentive to play fair. these are all good developments, but we've really got to give this some time to see how this plays out.

>> i don't want to have to play more from a burglar alarm for seafood. good to see you. thank you for being here. >> rake in news this morning for the president revoking security clearance a former cia director and trump critics john brennan and he might not be the only one. covert operations officer mike baker joins us now. i'm so excited to talk to you this morning about it. what do you think the president's motive was here? >> b. optics certainly looking at it from an outside. john brennan has a right to say whatever wants to say. that is protected under the first amendment. his talk is essentially unprecedented when you look a

other former directors have behaved. i can't get inside president trump. he got to a point where john brennan had probably stepped over a line in turns out his criticism became more of not just criticism, actively working against the current administration. >> is he a national security risk? >> no, no, i don't think so. we have to be measured in this. i think we would prefer that john brennan be more circumspect about what she says and seniority. also greatly preferred the president were more discrete in his public comments in tweets. that's not going to happen. that's not where we are.

do i think john brennan is a security risk? no, i do not. i would prefer to have seen him be much more careful and do other directors have done. this is something the president told "the wall street journal." bring in a cia chief is one who presented an evidence of russia's interference in the election. do you think this move was petty by the president? >> i think you can make an argument that it was in reaction to the things that john brennan has said. the interpretation could be that it was a long time coming and he gave them enough. that's all speculation. they get lost in these

back-and-forth about these two have been fading. it's definitely bizarre. it diminishes both the position of the director of the agency in the position of the president. i prefer it not be played out like this in the public. at the same time as john brennan he doesn't have a right to a security clearance. that's a bigger picture rather than this particular individual. it's the process of the clearances. and the administration over the years as a courtesy has allowed the former senior individuals to lead and retain their clearances. it's not necessarily an important matter. john brennan didn't have a security clearance and is to come back and talk to the current direct your about a

specific matter that he has inside him. it takes 15 minutes. sit down up a conversation conversation. that's not a critical part. it is economically viable for people to have clearances. lauren: mike baker, we have to end it there. thank you very much. cheryl: a chemical found in weedkiller has been linked to a variety of breakfast foods. lauren: tracee carrasco joins us with more on that another headline news. i don't think i want to know. >> this is alarming. the environmental working group released to test the popular vote make breakfast. to see if they contain any of the herbicide quite good shape which is in monsanto's roundup weed killer and at high levels has been linked to cancer. in 43 of the 45 cases they did

this follows a $209 investment to produce nonalcoholic cannabis-based beverage. the dealers expect it to close in october the same month it becomes legal in canada. lauren: the next story about taco bell. they got a new item. >> if they do. after the success of the natural price, taco bell with the rattlesnake fries talked with nacchio cheese and pickled jalapenos. there they are in your screen. even at 5:38 a.m. french fries named after a hot pepper seasoned with ranch sauce. add in nacho cheese. both of those available for just a limited time.

>> growing up in arizona, taco bell knows how to do it. thank you very much. >> sticking with it you do your next trip to mcdonald's might look a little bit different. we wanted to see how exactly the company is spending their money. >> welcome to the modern mcdonald's thanks to $6 investment by the company and franchises to 14,000 of its restaurants. you can enjoy table service, skip the drive-through for curbside pickup and five dozen mcdonald's have teamed up to deliver. >> you're likely to the kiosks where you can custom the order. >> what about pastries? some are selling things that chocolate coffee cakes.

it didn't feel like a mcdonald's table service. a full coffee bar. mcdonald says they're not abandoning their brick to flipping burgers or they're just trying to stay relevant. of the kiosks threatened to displace the human workers, but donald had workers will help customers in other ways. no one has lost their job yet because of this. turnover rate in the fast food industry 150%. some are not interested in some of these changes are they haven't been trained on the technology for things. we just want to remind you minimum wages are growing up in many cities in many states. this could be an added cost for donald's. we will see how it pans out in the end. i don't underestimate. don't go anywhere. a lot more coming up.
