"fbn: a.m." starts right now. cheryl: here is how your money is moving at 5:00 a.m. after a second day of losses, u.s. markets turning things around. we have got green arrows to show you. the dow up 79, s&p up 9, nasdaq up 34 and-a-half. we're following breaking news out in the gulf of owe man, off the coast of iran, reports say two oil tankers possibly have been attacked. that hit the crude oil contract here in this country and brent over in europe. taking a look at light sweet crude, there's a gain of almost
5:02 am
two and-a-half percent. now checking the yield on the 10 year. investors looking ahead to next week's fed meeting and a possible rate cut. the yield, 2.12%, that is a loss of 3 basis points. now, the unrest continues in hong kong. taking a look at asia markets, all in the red with the exception of the shanghai composite which only gained just a fraction of a percent, so pressure in asia. the global story, the ecb, they're watching it and european markets are in the green. the ftse, cac and dax are higher. lauren: good morning at home. i'm lauren simonetti shf good l. cheryl: good morning. i'm cheryl casone. lauren: we are seeing a huge jump in the price of oil, up 2.5% after asu a a suspected ak on two oil tankers. an explosion caused a fire
5:03 am
on-board. cheryl: another shipping firm identifying the second vessel that was hit, saying 21 sailors were evacuated with one slightly injured. tensions remain high between the united states and iran following an attack on four vessels in the same region just last month. we'll bring you any breaking details as they happen. lauren: oil prices are spiking again. cheryl: now to the trade war with china. president trump ramping up tough talk on beijing. he is saying it's not clear when he's going to impose additional tariffs on china. listen. >> i have to deadline. my deadline is what's up here. we'll figure out the deadline. nobody can quite figure it out. lauren: the president's hard line signaling this could be a prolonged trade dispute. >> i would never make something that would be less than what we already had. we had china opened up to trade. that's a big thing. they've never done that before. we had intellectual property theft taken care of and taken
5:04 am
care of beautifully and all of a sudden those things started to disappear at the end after they were fully negotiated. lauren: the president added he could put everything china imports under a 25% tariff after the g-20 summit. china says if traditional tariffs are added they will retaliate once again. cheryl: huawei is going after verizon in their wallet. the chinese telecom company says verizon needs to pay licensing fees on more than 200 huawei patents. this is according to a report in the wall street journal. in a letter from huawei, a an intellectual property licensing executive writes this. quote, we trust that you will see the benefit of taking a license to our patent portfolio. this only escalates the tensions between the united states and china. the white house office of budget and management says it will meet the two-year deadline to ban
5:05 am
companies contracted by the government from doing any business with huawei. lauren: the other battle that china is battling is hong kong. another chaotic day in hong kong after violent clashes between police and protesters. and hong kong's legislative council announcing that no time has been set aside for debate on a controversial extradition law. cheryl: connell mcshane live in hong kong with us. connell, good evening to you. >> reporter: good evening, cheryl and lauren. good to see you both. it's cliche to say what a difference a day makes but after what the city went through yesterday t. cliche probably applies. we're near the legislative council buildings where the protesters had been out on the streets. i'll step out of the shop for a moment and i'll show you the scene today. some police are still milling around but the protesters have cleared out. we've had heavy thunderstorms hitting the area in hong kong. even before the rain moved in, the protesters had been moved
5:06 am
out and contrast that with the video of this area from last night, and we say the protesters have been moved out, they've been moved out with the use of force. the police using tear gas and rubber bullets at times to drive them away after the protesters through their own efforts had been able to delay a debate in the legislative council over the extradition bill that you referenced. now, everybody here is trying to figure out the next steps. there were a group of maybe 50 to 100 protesters milling around in a park near where we're standing now. we paid them a visit a short time ago, trying to figure out what comes next. >> so when is there going to be another protest, do you sunshine. >> when they start the second discussion. >> oh, okay. you're waiting for the bill to come back into the legislature. >> i think it's this week go if there's a debate over th extradition bill, there will be another protest. >> for sure, yes. >> do you think it will make a
5:07 am
difference? >> i hope we can. >> reporter: terry lamb, the chief executive officer here in hong kong, the highest ranking political official, had tough word for protesters, saying this is clearly no longer a peaceful assembly but a blatant organized riot. those were her words, organized riot. speaking of organization, some of the protest leaders within the last hour or so have been talking about organizing of their own, possibly putting together another large scale march for this coming sunday. so a lot of uncertainty, cheryl and lauren, as to what happens next but at this point what we know is there has not been a debate on this bill. that's still to come and the protesters say they're not done yet. they most likely will be back on the streets over the weekend. back to you guys. lauren: thank you very much. cheryl: well, back here at home, democrats jumping all over president trump for comments he made in an interview with abc news. the president said he would consider accepting information
5:08 am
on his political opponents from a foreign government. >> i think i might want to listen. there's nothing wrong with listening. >> you want that kind of interference in our elections? >> not interference. they have information. i think i'd take it. cheryl: the president said he went necessarily alert the fbi if a foreign country approached his campaign with opposition research. democrats ramped up impeachment calls, forgetting that the democratic national committee paid a british spy for information back in 2016. lauren: all the layers that are unfolding. opponents to a citizenship question on the 2020 census asked the supreme court to wait until the fall to decide the issue. the aclu wants the court to send the case to a lower court to consider newly discovered evidence suggesting the question was added for political purposes. this is after president trump asserted executive privilege to keep secret documents about the
5:09 am
citizenship question. >> i think when have you a census and you're not allowed to talk about whether or not somebody's a citizen or not, that doesn't sound so good to me. i think it's totally ridiculous that we would have a census without asking. lauren: recall yesterday in the day -- earlier in the day a house panel voted to hold two cabinet members in contempt for defying the subpoenas. cheryl: other headlines making news this morning. a house committee has answers for jon stewart a day after stewart blasted congress for inaction and the fact that many of the members didn't show up for a hearing. the house judiciary committee voted to permanently authorize the 9/11 victims compensation fund. the legislation now goes to a full floor vote in congress where it's expected to pass. it then goes to the senate. a major recall at ford to tell you about, involving more than a million explorer suvs. the company says a problem in the rear suspension could cause drivers to lose steering
5:10 am
control. ford says one customer who experienced the problem drove into a curb. luckily, no injuries have been reported. and james bond fans are going to like this one. a 1965 aston martin db5 outfitted with special gadgets for the spy will be up for auction today. it comes with tire slashers, machine guns, a bulletproof shield. they expect the car to go for between $4 million and $6 million. that's what's happening now. lauren: let's take a look at futures this morning. we see up arrows. dow gaining 80 points. nasdaq up 34 in the premarket. but oil also boosting stocks this morning. it's up after two oil tankers were attacked. we're seeing a 2.6% build in the price of wti this morning. coming up, the eyes of the world on hong kong as protests there are revealing perhaps the inner workings of china. how can the u.s. trust that they'll uphold any commitments
5:11 am
they might make in a possible trade deal? and calling gloria. st. louis goes from worst to first, winning their first ever stanley cup. that is certainly something to sing about. and maybe they will. when we return. ♪ whoa. travis in it made it. it's amazing. oh is that travis's app? it's pretty cool, isn't it? there's two of them. they're multiplying. no, guys, its me. see, i'm real. i'm real! he thinks he's real. geico. over 75 years of savings and service.

lauren: we are watching the impact of violent clashes between police and protesters in hong kong. hong kong's legislative council announcing no time has been set aside for debate on the controversial extradition law. it appears to show the impact of these protests. let's bring in riley walters, heritage policy analyst in asian economy and technology. he joins us now. riley, good to see you. good morning. >> good morning. lauren: why isn't the ledg legislative council in hong kong taking this up. >> it's definitely something that carrie lamb, the administrator in hong kong, has been pushing. but i think these protests have had the effect of delaying the process of putting this bill into effect. certainly something that they would like to see delaying this as much as possible, so i think to a certain degree they've had some success. lauren: as the world looks at the optics of all of this, tear gas, riots, massive protest as connell just showed us, they
5:15 am
will likely continue into next week, what message is this sending to china? is there anything that the u.s. and the west can do here? >> i think for the people in hong kong, they're sending a clear message that there's definitely a discord between the people and the administrative -- administration in hong kong, the ones that tend to be backed by beijing. for the united states, i mean, the way that we can help support hong kong's autonomy which has been coming into question, the concerns over their ability to maintain autonomy over the past few years, we can help support it by allowing it to enter into programs such as the u.s. visa waiver program for example. just ways to help incentiveize hong kong maintain some level of autonomy. lauren: the narrative coming out of china, and i don't think president xi is able or ready to fight two battles, the trade war and what's going on in hong kong, but the south china morning post is saying that foreign forces, external forces
5:16 am
are behind these protests. >> that's a clear narrative you hear from, for example, like state media coming out china. it's always someone else's fault when it's clearly beijing's influence and hong kong and their actions that they're taking to try and gain more control over hong kong. it's pretty clear -- for the last several decades, hong kong has been a pretty stark -- pretty strong example of thriving democracy, a thriving free economy and so beijing doesn't like that. so they want to try and press against that as much as possible. lauren: riley walters, thank you. cheryl: let's take a look at how futures are trading on this thursday morning. we've got green arrows after two days of losses. you've got the dow up 84 in the premarket, s&p up 9 and a quarter, nasdaq up 37. do want to take a look at oil right now. the breaking news we're following right now, two oil tankers attacked in the gulf of

5:19 am
5:20 am
5:21 am
cheryl: bernie sanders hoping a heart felt he speech about socialism will help him in the polls. >> that is the difference between donald trump and me. he believes in corporate socialism for the rich and powerful. i believe in a democratic socialism that works for the working families of this country. economic rights are human rights. and that is what i mean by democratic socialism. cheryl: sanders trailing biden and elizabeth warren. but this is happening at joe biden looks to remind the american public about his former running mate at every turn. >> when barack and i were -- [ indiscernible ] i call him barack.
5:22 am
cheryl: that was one of the mentions. are socialism or no, si no, sire key to winning the race? let's bring in reporter joe simon. first to joe biden. he keeps bringing up the friendship bracelets, the dinners, the moments back in time. is this a sign of how biden's going to run? >> i think so. if you follow biden's campaign, it's relatively light on policy. in some ways, if president trump wants to go back to a -- promised to go back to a better day with more manufacturing jobs and wage growth, joe biden is telling the american people let's go back to a couple years ago, you really like barack obama, right. cheryl: if you look at the message we heard from a lengthy event from bernie sanders yesterday, he's taking the other side, let's talk about the future and this country should be a democratic socialist country. four in 10 people say they
5:23 am
prefer to live in a socialist country. the message seems to be getting out there. but why? >> well, i think obviously at least under the obama administration and towards the end of the bush administration the economy generally fared pretty poorly. we didn't have over 1 to 2% gdp growth for over eight years under barack obama. we're just finally starting to see growth now. and those numbers, the four in 10 americans who say they might prefer hprefer socialism, that o be younger people. cheryl: it's interesting you brought up the economy. i was looking at a poll and 70% of americans say they think the economy is strong, the economy is good. but president trump's approval rating is only at 42%. why the disconnect? why is president trump not getting credit for a strong economy right now? >> if you break down his approval ratings in terms of who do you trust to oversee the economy, the gop tends to fare
5:24 am
better than the democratic party generally and i believe if you look at trump's approval rating on the economy, it's higher than his approval rating generally. the disconnect is that, well, frankly president trump has a hard time staying on message. he gets distracted and a lot of his advisors say just talk about the economy, don't worry about what joe biden's saying. cheryl: based on the numbers we got yesterday, the head to head matchups between president trump and some of the democratic candidates, the messaging may be the key to all of this. joe, thank you very much. appreciate your time. lauren: let's take a look at how investors are responding to the news we've been bringing you this hour, the reports of two oil tankers attacked in the gulf of oman, near iran. yesterday, oil hit a five month low. now it's up $1.46, that's $52.60 a barrel, supporting the price of equities after two days of losses. dow ne futures are higher by 80

points. still ahead, a shocking report on how much facebook ceo mark zuckerberknewmarkzuckerberg knee company's privacy problems. what this could mean for the future of the company and the stock. and reining jeopardy champ ken jennings reveals how he really feels about rival james holzhauer stealing his thunder and could a matchup be in the works? that would be fun. we'll be right back. ♪ dear tech, dear tech, let's talk. we have a pretty good relationship. you've done a lot of good for the world. but i feel like you have the potential to do so much more. are you working for all of us, or just a few of us?
5:26 am
can we build ai without bias? ai that fights bias? ai that helps us see the bias in ourselves? we need tech that helps people understand each other. that understands my business. dear tech, dear tech, dear tech, dear tech, let's champion data rights as human rights. let's use blockchain to help reduce poverty. let's develop new solutions with the help of quantum technology. let's show girls that stem isn't just a boy's club. let's make a difference in people's lives. let's do it all. together. let's expect more from technology. let's put smart to work.
5:27 am
5:28 am
cheryl: let's get you caught up on global market action this morning. after a second day of losses yesterday, u.s. markets turning things around right now. you've got the dow up 94, s&p up 10 and-a-half points. taking a look at asian markets,
5:29 am
all of them in the red, including japan, except for the shanghai composite whic which by eeked out a gain. all eyes on the ecb in europe. there is optimism about the ecb's actions. the ftse, dax and the cac all in the green. lauren: oil prices jumping this morning after a suspected attack on two oil tankers in the gulf of oman in iran. an explosion caused a fire on-board. another shipping firm identified the second vessel hit, saying 21 sailors were evacuated. chief strategist todd horowitz joins us now. yesterday oil was down 4%, now it's up almost 3%. this is a reminder about how sensitive the market is to mideast tension, no? >> good morning, lauren. i think what you have here is the perfect storm. you had oil that's been extremely over-sold and you have a little bit of excitement of an
5:30 am
attack or whatever you have on the tankers. so that creates a short to cover, spiking oil, bringing it all the way back. we'll see where it's going to go from here. i think what you're seeing is this rally is built on fear right now because if you look -- there's a formation in commodities that it's showing that the front month is the most expensive which is backwards. it shouldn't be more expensive than december oil but it is now. lauren: this might be temporary but what could it do to summer gas prices. we have the national average at $2.71 right now, that's down 15-cents in the past month. drivers might be getting excited that that road trip just got cheaper, but maybe not. >> i would think that this is going to be very temporary. when this is done and all said -- remember, we're the ones producing our own oil now and we're continuing to increase every day. i think there will be plenty of supply. i think oil prices will continue to drop. i think prices will continue to drop at the pump and i think
5:31 am
it's going to be a good driving summer for those who choose to drive. i think they'll be able to go for less expensive than they would have normally. lauren: you noted at the top of the segment that oil was over-solved i want to ask you about tech stocks. seems the way they move, the way the rest of the market moves and that's certain -- that certainly did happen yesterday, particularly with the price of facebook. what's your feeling on tech? >> i think tech is okay. listen, tech had such a monster rally when it started and if you go back into the beginning of this whole market, this big bull market we had, tech was very strong. it has come down but you've seen apple make a dramatic recovery from the low 170s, all the way back to the 190s. amazon has come back. i think they're a little bit overdone. i think the markets are still a little too frothy up in these levels. it wouldn't surprise me to see a run at new highs before anything else changes. there's a lot of things going on between them looking to cut rates and why would they want to
5:32 am
cut rates. there's a slew of things that indicate there might be trouble down the road. lauren: you point out the perfect storm of events hitting investors, yet you think in the short term stocks could hit new highs. thanks to the fed, i guess. todd horowitz -- >> again, free money. if you keep giving out free money and you allow the big guys who are going to play to borrow, at low rates, they'll continue to pour into the market. lauren: thank you very much. >> thank you. cheryl: here's a question for all of you. should facebook be worried about its ceo? the wall street journal reporting that the company reportedly uncovered disturbing e-mails that show that mark zuckerberg knew about facebook's questionable privacy practices and this is happening just as deep fake videos will take center stage on cap l toll hill today when the house intelligence committee hearing will take on how fake videos of public figures may pose a threat to the 2020 elections. >> whoever controls the data
5:33 am
controls the future. >> our enemies can make it look like anyone is saying anything at any point in time. we need to be more voyage length with what we -- vigilant with what we trust from the internet. lauren: an art installation made headlines when it appeared on instagram. they said they're not removing it from the network, they're going to down-rank it but they're not going to remove it. how dangerous are these videos s? what is being done to expose them. here to discuss is brett larsen. deep fake technology is a problem. >> it's terrifying. there's a great article where experts say we're totally out-gunned. we don't have a way to handle this. there is some deep fake detection technology, where they can go through and look at the way your mouth moves, facial gestures, the tone of your voice to see if it is actually you.
5:34 am
buthat's after the fact, after e video is out there. the jordan peele video was pretty popular, where he was showing look how easy it is to take this video of then president obama, i can add my voice and change everything he says and you can't really tell. the tone sounds a little bit off but otherwise it's ream and it's out there -- real and it's out there. cheryl: what will they try to accomplish on capitol hill. we're getting these hearings on big tech. not sure what congress can do about deep fake technology. >> the genie is out of the bottle at this point. there's not much you can do. the problem with the deep fakes, like we saw with the nancy pelosi video, the problem with the fake news in general on social media is the damage is already done by the time you realize this isn't real. lauren: they could take it down and they're not taking it down. facebook is saying we have third party fact checkers and we're
5:35 am
going to tell you this isn't accurate and we'll down-rank it but it's still out there. >> it's still out there and it's still been seen. the problem is, this stuff has been seen. people have made a decision, if it's confirmation bias, they're going to think of course this is what this person said because that's how i think they would say things. cheryl: the other big thing, mark zuckerberg, the e-mails, the stock took a hit when that report came out about those e-mails. this puts a negative light on zuckerberg. >> this story is stunning to me for a variety of reasons. for one, e-mail doesn't go away. e-mail is not a private conversation. when you're e-mailing between yourself and another person, it's going -- it's hitting servers, it's going everywhere many you should never have conversations like that over e maim. i was just shocked that they were having these conversations and zuckerberg's talking about an app that's collecting all this user day a take back in 2012 when they were first having a run-in with the ftc. this is going to be bad. this is the iceberg that's hiding out under the surface of
5:36 am
the ocean that's bought to scrape the side of titanic. lauren: we're out of time but i'm curious who could have leaked that information. >> probably someone on the e-mail chain that was smart about saving all of those messages for later. because they realize this isn't what we should be doing. lauren: brett larsen, great to get your voice on this. you can catch brett on fox news headlines, 24/7, sirius xm channel 115. cheryl: colorado has surpassed $1 billion in tax revenue from marijuana sales. the state says since recreational use was legalized in 2014, sales have topped $6.5 billion, generating $1 billion from taxes, licenses and fees. the state's got more than 2900 licensed marijuana businesses and more than 41,000 licensed workers in the industry. well, you may soon have your big mac delivered by a drone. uber eats says it will test drone deliveries of mcdonald's meals in san diego over the summer. the food will be dropped off in

5:38 am
i was cheering for this guy, because he's elite, he's fantastic. >> but honestly. >> and i had a james voodoo doll at home that i was poking. cheryl: holzhauer finished with $2.4 million. that comes up short of the record set by jennings who earned $2.5 million in 2004. many people say they would love a matchup between the two. lauren: bring it on. that would be awesome. we have markets higher this morning after two days of losses. dow futures are up by 76 points, a quarter of 1%. nasdaq gaining half of 1% this morning, keeping a close eye on oil on news of two oil tankers being attacked in the gulf of oman. still ahead, trouble ahead for attorney general bill barr and commerce secretary wilbur ross. are the democrats using them to try to topple the trump administration? as the 2019 u.s. open kicks off, will tiger woods notch his first open victory? keep it here on "fbn: a.m.."

5:42 am
administration. let's bring in attorney david bruno. david, good morning. >> good morning. cheryl: immediately thought of you when the news crossed late in the day yesterday. it's the house oversight committee. they seem to be really trying to -- i would think the supreme court was going to be the ultimate voice on the issue of the census question which is where the subpoena comes from against the two gentlemen. the house committee doesn't want to wait on the supreme court. why? >> don't ask h -- don't ask me. this has been argued before the united states supreme court. we are waiting on the decision whether or not this could be on the questionnaire or not. but the house doesn't want to wait for this. and i think there's the common thread between all of the committees, do whatever you can to embarrass the trump administration, attack the trump administration and this is campaigning at its best right now for the dems. cheryl: it's all politics, that seems to be what they're playing.
5:43 am
any lawsuit that they actually may try and file? this is that committee in the house dems, it's being said that could bring up a constitutional clash that we've never seen before between the white house and congress, because of all these committees looking for all these documents, whether it's documents related to the mueller report, whether it's documents related to the census question. is there a legal root, do you think? >> you're absolutely right. because what we're talking about is executive privilege. and that has been asserted by don mcgahn, various different witnesses in front of the intel committee, and now here. because this is what the trump administration is going to do. they're going to claim that the documents that they're requesting -- by the way, the administration has already provided 17,000 documents on this point. cheryl: exactly. >> administration is saying what's not provided is work product and executive privilege. cheryl: they get one set of documents and then they go over and then they go to barr and wilbur ross on the census
5:44 am
question. really quick, late breaking story yesterday, the sailing coach at stanford, he was the first person to be sentenced in the varsity blues college admissions scandal. prosecutors wanted 13 months. he got a day. time served. is this going to be good news for the rest of the defendants in this story? >> yes, absolutely. because the government stood up yesterday and was asking for 13 months. and there are some, including ms. hoffman, who has agreed to four months. so that is showing that a judge may take the similar pathetic defendants, which most of them are, high quality, high wealth type people and they may be get nothing jail. but, but, this individual did not benefit, did not receive a dollar, all the money went to the college. so they could actually be a little different. cheryl: the judge really scolded the prosecutors from what i read in the testimony. david, thank you so much for all things legal this morning. great to have you. >> you got it.
