here. mayor de blasio as well. we hope that the folks out there love this session as well. it's not the last. we're going to try to do it again. this special hour of bulls & bears is over now. >> what a difference a day makes. stocks across-the-board roaring back after yesterday's blistering selloff, fueling the rally. the trump administration said it is diamondback tariffs on chinese goods. but on the ground in hong kong democracy protesters shut down the airport for the second straight day. things turned violent with security forces began filing beanbag rounds, teargas and wielding batons. now, to the battle for the border back here in the u.s. senator chuck schumer wants the trump administration to drop its request for $5 billion for a border wall. redirect that money to combat
6:01 pm
gun violence and violent white supremacy. following the money in the case of jeffrey epstein, not only is president trump calling for a full investigation, but two french ministers are demanding a probe into epstein's potential link to that country. i am melissa and for elizabeth mcdonnell. the evening at it starts right now -- "the evening edit" starts right now. >> the white house announces it will delay tariffs on some hot chinese goods like cell phones and laptops until the holiday season in december. we have it all covered for you. jackie is at the new york stock exchange with the market reaction. we begin with edward lawrence with the latest from the white house. edward. >> this is a very important day. it is the first time i have heard the president acknowledge the fact that tariffs could make consumer items more expensive for consumers to buy. he has always said that china
6:02 pm
pays the tariffs. listen. >> we are doing this with the christmas season it could have an impact on u.s. customers. the only impact is that we selected almost $60 billion of china. but just in case they might have an impact on people while we have done as we have delayed it so it won't be relative. >> the u.s. trade representative said the 10% tariffs will go on a larger list of 122 pages worth of items on september 1 for that list includes agriculture, steel products, as well as arts, live sculptures, and paintings. tariffs will be delayed until december 15 on another group of items like cell phones, laptops, videogame councils, and toys. this comes after a phone call between the chinese and u.s. trade delegations. the two sides decided to talk in two weeks. no real progress on the trade
6:03 pm
deal. china may be distracted by the massive protests going on in hong kong. it shut down the airport for two days straight. just look at these pictures. now, we have stern warnings from hong kong officials. >> the chief executives a responsibility is to ensure that hong kong remains as safe and orderly on law-abiding city. that is my utmost responsibility. >> president donald trump tweeting today that china is -- troops on the hong kong border. he asked everyone to be calm and say. the state department released a statement saying they hope that china follows the declaration, the joint declaration that was agreed upon when the united kingdom turn hong kong back over to china. the last british mayor of hong kong said that if the chinese act in hong kong you would be a catastrophe. >> no doubt. edward, thanks. now to jackie with the new york stock exchange with one of the big rally down there.
6:04 pm
jackie. >> good evening, melissa. strong gains for the market today with a dialogue enough 372-point game. after optimism on the part of investors when they heard the news that the treasury department said it will delayed new tariffs on some goods from china until december 15. remember, the new round of tears was supposed to be implemented september 1. this will include things like games, toys, computers, some clothing items. certain sectors really getting a boom here. we saw the dow leader, apple, intel and thou itself. apple was one that was hit the hardest. really rebounding today. retail was a strong two. dow stocks, or an nike were all higher. best buy was the leader on the s&p for retail, as well. what is interesting as you saw a rotation today. you sell the stock market higher, oil prices higher, risk and came off in terms of gold prices. they were lower and also the ten
6:05 pm
year note. we saw that ten year yield rise. melissa: jackie, thank you. so, will trump strategy in china work? joining mina from american enterprise institute chinese expert derek. derek, we are going to show people was going on at the airport in hong kong. this has been one of the biggest factors going on overnight. right now the airport a shutdown. they are waiting for the new day over there. what you think that will bring? >> hong kong -- whether the chinese government thinks there is protesters in china in sympathy with what is going on in hong kong. if it is just hong kong, china can stay out of bed and let the protesters exhaust themselves and get tired of the disorder. but if you see mere protests in china saying we stand with the hong kong protesters, we want freedom, whatever they are looking for, that is what will trigger a chinese reaction. of course we don't know
6:06 pm
everything that is going on in china. we won't necessarily see it. melissa: the preacher we are looking at, they reopen the airport. people are filing in there in an orderly manner. it started like this yesterday as well. they thought it was going to be a normal day and as time went on more more protesters showed up at the airport. this is quite a switch. how does this all balance out with everything that is going on with the president in mainland china? the does it distract president g xi jinping from what he is habited and president trump does it may be give him more resolve as he needs to look tough everywhere. >> again, i think the question, hong kong is a little bit of an embarrassment for him. i don't think it matters that much. the question is whether there is unhappiness within china itself. other students who will see them protesting in chinese cities?
6:07 pm
that fear is very important for xi jinping. if that is what he's worried about, if he is worried about hong kong he has plenty of rooms. if he's worried about spreading discontent in china he has to take a hard-line. >> what you think about the move to delay the tariffs today. does it make it feel like he blinks? >> i think it is a domestic political move. i don't think it's about backing down to china. i think the president was very upset with china couple of weeks ago. he announced new tariffs more quickly than others would have otherwise chosen. and to now he is realizing look, i can get to those tariffs later. i want to reassure everyone, i want to take christmas off the table it's a political issue, no democrat can criticize me for ruining christmas. so i think it is a domestic political move. i don't think he blinks it to china. he may have linked to american politics. >> if you look at the balance to all of the agreements going on, how do you sort that out.
6:08 pm
the usmc a, that is a win. when you look at mexico and canada, they are able to get that over the finish line. it is so close to being down. also trying to make a deal with the u.k. how does it all sorted out in your mind and all these different fronts? how would you score it? >> i studied china and i see china as a threat to various ways to the united states and also a horribly repressive regime. we hope we don't see that in hong kong, but we could. to deal with mexico and canada we have deals with them but they're not dictated their ships. britain obviously isn't. we might have a deal with the japan, they are another democracy. i divide this up as you make the deals with countries that are better run countries and better friends for the united states. that makes you stronger to them turning to the chinese to say we don't need you. improve the way you are behaving toward us or we will deal with other countries. >> that's great insight. thank you. >> next up on the evening at it,
6:09 pm
president trump calling for a full investigation into jeffrey epstein while separately overseas to french ministers are also calling for a probe in a potential links to that country. later in the show, the kremmling claims it is actually winning the nuclear arms race against america in spite of the deadly accident during a missile test that killed five engineers and released radiation over several villages. ants, senator chuck schumer wants the trump team to drop its request for $5 billion for a border wall and to redirect that money to combat gun violence and violent white supremacy. all money managers might seem the same,
6:10 pm
but some give their clients cookie cutter portfolios. fisher investments tailors portfolios to your goals and needs. some only call when they have something to sell. fisher calls regularly so you stay informed. and while some advisors are happy to earn commissions whether you do well or not. fisher investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. maybe that's why most of our clients come from other money managers. fisher investments. clearly better money management. why accept it frompt an incompyour allergy pills?e else. flonase sensimist. nothing stronger. nothing gentler. nothing lasts longer.

>> senate minority leader, chuco formerly remove or request for $5 million for a border wall. schumer instead once those funds to fight gun violence and violent white supremacist. with now is heritage foundation, genevieve wood. genevieve, more specifically they said the funds would be used to cover the department of -- funds to counter violent extremism. fbi domestic terror investigations in the center for
6:14 pm
disease control and prevention, gun violence research and other programs. what you think about that? >> welcome i think of senator schumer were actually serious about this measure he would try to find $5 billion anywhere else in the federal government other than the border wall which he knows the president is not quick to budge on. i mean, he could not have picked one issue or one area of the budget that would have been more contentious to call for resending then that particular one. i think that shows that senator schumer wants to talk, he wants to have a political gesture here but he's not really serious about any type of fighting gun violence and investigating these programs. if you was he wouldn't suggest to come from the border wall. >> it is frustrating that it is always about funding. why is it he's asking for money as opposed to putting
6:15 pm
legislation down that would change laws. there's so many other ways to attack the problem. their way of attacking it is always spending money. >> especially when you're spending money after money that has already been spent and is some cases it's not working. you know, the shooter in sutherland springs, texas in 2017, he was a guy that was a member of the u.s. air force. he had been found guilty of assault of his wife and child and none of that made it to the background information. so when a background check was run on him that popped up. so, that is a perfect example of where we are spending money and passing legislation on things like background checks but yet the information that would inform a background check did not get there. the government agency that was in charge of that, why would we give them more money when they are not doing the job they have been charged to do. >> and so many cases it is about enforcing the law that is already in place. what would it take to do that? is it a federal thing? is it more like, i think of the example in parkland, florida where you had those local residents and people in the state of florida frustrated about what went on.
6:16 pm
you kind of looked at their own state in their own laws in their own way of living and behaving figured out thanks that would help in that area. does it kind of come down to states finding their own appropriate solution? >> well, yes it is definitely at the local level. in the case in parkland again you had federal law coming in from the obama administration that looked at in terms of too many minority getting in trouble or detention problems in school. if the percentage was to hide the school district was going to be in trouble. what is that do? it incentivizes teachers and were not going to report somebody with the bad behavior which we know the shooter in parkland was a very problem child. people outside the school newington people inside the school knew it. so, we need to look at the walls and encouraging the right behavior. are we encouraging the right reporting. when we have the reporting measures, do the agencies and
6:17 pm
the others involved, are they doing their job? we got to start there before we say let's just throw more money at it. we all want to fix it but the reality is, just talking about it and making political gestures which i think senator schumer did is not going to get the job done. melissa: it also strikes me as the others incremental changes that could make a difference in their obviously isn't one thing that is going to make a difference. everybody is so august on making political points that there is on one hand no way they're going to come to any sort of agreement. also, if they do something incremental like the red flag laws for example, the democrats won't want republicans to have any sort of a win so they will talk about how that is nothing. it doesn't do anything. and how republican sort of fell down on the job. there sort of know we, politics or standing in the way of getting anything done. >> you are absolutely right. i think what we have to be careful on is the public should
6:18 pm
hold their lawmakers accountable, not just redoing something but for being serious and seriously looking at the walls that we are ready have in the books. what is working, what isn't and really making an informed decision. as you well know when your viewers know, we can say were going to do a lot of things but at the end of the day nothing is going to fix. all of these in things have some things in, but things that are different as well. there will be a one-sided solution. melissa: definitely not. thank you for your time tonight. >> thank you. melissa: now we have a firsthand look at a new section of the border wall in san diego that is now fully replaced. the outdated barricades that were there before, william is there on the projects completion and more. william was watching ten people get away hundreds of people getting in hundreds of them getting in now waiting and feeling secure.
6:19 pm
14 miles completed just last week stretching from the pacific ocean east and there is more to come. >> this infrastructure freed up a 150 agents every 24 hours to be shifted into more remote areas. >> the fence doesn't stop everyone but it does by the agents time. these two men found a hole in the secondary fence but ran back when they saw border patrol. unable to scale the primary fence without a ladder they are apprehended in between. >> acting commissioner credits the program that forces migrants to wait in mexico while the courts process their asylum claims. because of overcrowding mexico's busing some migrants far from the border, other self deport, out of money. >> this is a regional crisis. when we say we are assisting we will give them capacity building information and guidance on how they can do their job. but it is the government a
6:20 pm
mexico's job to make sure their shelters are adequate enough just like it is on our side. >> to the terrorist threat, mexico's reporting records of migrants, 100,000 this year that they say the crackdown is on sustainable. >> if mexico is going to sustain this over the long-term they need to make some real investments in their migration agency in their asylum system. >> so melissa, apprehension zero in the border are down 43%. just like the historic lows of following the president selection down like 15000 a month versus 140,000 a month just a few months ago, the constant here is changed. mexico remains a wildcard. guatemala has yet to ratify this stage third country agreement. so agency or say yes, they welcome congressional help but enforcement is always a work in progress. melissa. melissa: wow. it's amazing what you see month-to-month. thank you for your report

6:27 pm
radiation leak and said only two people have been injured. but casualty figures and now five days later an evacuation has finally been order and a special train dispatch to northern russia to ferry away anyone who may have been exposed to radiation. u.s. intelligence believes this was an engine test for the nuclear powered cruise missile known as sky fall. satellite photo showed ships known to carry nuclear fuel and the restricted zone near the test site. medics who treated the victims have been sent to moscow due to the exposure of radiation levels. sixteen times above normal. thousands of people attended funerals for the nuclear scientist killed during the failed test. the scientists were on a barge at sea when the explosion threw them into the frigid waters. russians are panicked about the increased radiation levels. the new missile is designed to fly anywhere in the world and evade u.s. missile defense systems. so far it has not passed the test stage. the u.s. tried to build this
6:28 pm
type of missile in the 60s make the united states looked at developing this in their 50s and 60s and ultimately decided it was a technological nightmare and ecological hazard. this is not a technology that i think makes a lot of sense for the united states. but for whatever reasons the russians have a different sense may be because they treat environmentalists differently than we do. i'm not sure this system is ever going to work. >> president putin had touted the success of a new hypersonic cruise missile in a state of the union address last year. this missile appears to be subsonic and like a nuclear airplane according to experts. the experts up tried testing the same missile year ago when it crashed in the arctic. the program has faced multiple setbacks. >> jennifer, thank you. even with the missile explosion in the kremlin is saying they're winning the nuclear arms race. joining me now is brett, what's your reaction to this statement?
6:29 pm
they have a huge explosion but they're winning the arms race. clearly they are in an arms race with us and that is probably worrying enough. >> wright, melissa and i think the truth is, putin continues to get more emboldened by the day because he basically believes that it goes on checks they think they're too overextended to do anything about it. basically we are seeing the beginning of this modern-day arms race because of that and because the president recently backed out of this intermediate range treaty. when you look at the treaty russia really give the u.s. no other choice but to pull a lot of it because of repeated violations. it's as if russia uses treaty to gain a competitive advantage and get a head start on the arms race because they knew we would not violate the terms of that treaty as long as we were a part of it. we are seeing russia continue to

6:32 pm
would we stand in that? what's going on with that negotiation and how ready to explode is that situation? >> right. so there was some talk of that. there was the iranian ship being released by the brits. if we do see something like that it will be the case were both ships will be released at the same time, not one versus the other. when it comes to the iran situation right now the iranians are playing a game where it's all about justification for their actions on the world stage. it's the same tactics were seeing the chinese use in hong kong where they are a flaming external influence for their problems. set for this case the iranians are blowing things up. they want to point to the u.s. and point to the world to say other people are incurring on their territory. we know that it has no bounds. we just saw from intelligence sources that the iranians are jamming gps equipment on these naval ships to get them to incur into iranian waters so they

could then take the ships hostage. we will see more of that until basically the world comes together and do something about it. >> brett, thank you for your time back. melissa: ahead on the evening at it, democrats bill de blasio and john delaney make their case for 2020 right here on foxbusiness. we will be right back with that. first, we have a former top fbi official helping us follow the money in the case of jeffrey epstein. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ what might seem like a small cough can be a big bad problem for your grandchildren.

6:38 pm
correctional center where jeffrey epstein died of an apparent suicide. he also plays the two guards assigned to epstein's unit on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigations by the department of justice and the fbi. yesterday barr said there were quote serious irregularities at mcc. the associated press reports one of the two guards was a substitute and not a correctional officer. union reps tell fox the guards were working extreme over time adding epstein's death is the fault of the bureau of prisons for systemic understaffing and overworked guards. a source tells fox news the guards had not checked on epstein for several hours leading up to his death. violating mcc normal operations calling for checks every 30 minutes. meantime, the day after fbi agents raided his so-called pedophile island, his home on a private u.s. virgin islands where he allegedly trafficked underage girls, president trump defended his retweet over the
6:39 pm
weekend of a non- founded conspiracy theory implying that clinton's had something to do with epstein's death. >> what you have to ask you is why did they go to the island so epstein had an island that was not a good place i understand. i was never there. we have to ask, did bill clinton go to the island? that's the question i want a full investigation. and that's what i absolutely and demanding. >> the new york post reports epstein hanged himself saturday with the bedsheet wrapped around his neck and tied to the top of a bunk bed in his jail cell. apparently kneeling towards the floor and strangling himself. melissa. >> brian, thank you for that. two french ministers are demanding a probe into jeffrey epstein sex trafficking charges because the u.s. investigation has highlighted possible links with france. joining me now is fbi deputy assistant director danny colson. is the connection that they
6:40 pm
trafficked through france or that jeffrey epstein apparently owned a flat in france? what is the connection? >> it's all of the above. it appears that he did traffic these girls. i think this is gratuitous. maybe now our country will get serious about sex trafficking. because it's been a significant problem. now we have a major case and we have access to get into it. this thing is going to get really broad and long, tall and broad before it's over. >> and you think that's true, even though there's so many famous people involved? another person at the center of it is dead? i think a lot of americans fear that with so many people that are powerful and could potentially be hurt by this that maybe we will get all the answers. >> i understand their frustration, especially some cases we have seen recently, frankly the fbi agents in the product the gators don't care

6:42 pm
that seems like that could be some of the most damning evidence. what's your opinion. >> that's a very best evidence. not just the long, the eyewitness that produce those logs. those pilots, the flight attendants, that's very damaging. if you start being interviewed and you say i never went there and they have your name monologue, now you apply to the fbi. now you have a felony. also this will be a domino case. a couple of people will get jammed up and pretty soon you will have the whole picture. we will know what happened. fairly shortly. melissa: meanwhile, the person being charged as a co-conspirator are not really even sure where she is right now, right? >> they will find her. swink danny, thank you. >> thank you. always a pleasure. >> next step, bill de blasio tells foxbusiness it is time for the super rich to pay their fair share. john delaney says there's good news on the economy and there's

things we can to where we enlist rule america as a part of the solution. >> across town, another 2020 contender, julio castro held a affordable housing town hall. it was his add-on fox that he told trump that quote americans were chilled because you stoke the fire raised this. -- killed because you stoked the fire of racism. >> the presidents rhetoric is fueling the ambition of races across the country like the one we saw that killed 22 people in el paso. the president needs to realize that his words have consequences. >> so, a lot of the 2020 contender * using this time at the iowa state fair to really sharpen their attacks against president trump. but melissa, i just walked by
6:49 pm
the corn kernel -- and we have about a week to go but president trump fearing pretty well so far. melissa. >> kristen, thank you. just a short time ago to the 2020 democrats made their cases right here on foxbusiness. bill de blasio and john delaney, let's take it to our guests. republican strategist fort o'connell -- i'm going to let the candidate speak for themselves. here is bill de blasio. >> i am someone who believes in the american dream where prosperity shared with a huge number americans to get ahead and make the next generation have been a greater opportunity. we don't see that now. one of the reasons is the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a few. when i talk about small business owners, were talking about the superrich. for them that we have to clear my view it's time to pay your fair share of taxes.
6:50 pm
the tax rate going down in the federal government has helped them to accumulate that wealth. question on document of people healthcare? when they get healthcare when they go to the emergency room guess who's paying anyway? we are. >> i live in a man's city, i have never paid more taxes in my life. i mean, it is horrendous. what is he talking about? people need to pay more taxes. he's an idiot. >> what he's talking about is something politically popular among progressives. basically blamed the rich. who feels empathy for them. do your point what he's saying is inaccurate when it comes to the federal income tax system. the top 20% are paying 80% of taxes in the top 1% are paying about 90% combined. we have one of the most progressive tax codes in the industrialized world. he's looking for a bogeyman. who's going to have soup with the for him? it's a losing strategy. >> i hope so. melissa: lets want to delaney. a little bit more rational.
6:51 pm
let's listen to that one. >> are you in favor of this brand-new kind of wealth tax question worked. >> no. the reason i'm not in favor of it is because i don't think it's constitutional. and, the countries that have patted have largely backed away from it because it is almost impossible to implement and enforce. >> more rational. melissa: can't possibly win the democratic nomination with that rationality. >> everyone says this is a battle between moderates and progressives. but when i was with delaney and blah zero. i realize are just bickering over the weight and severity of which socialism is applied. yes it's hard to put in an ultra wealth tax because in europe they've had 12 or 13 countries in the 1990s who have had it now only three or four will do it. it may be unconstitutional. i'm a lawyer but i have not looked into it. i will say he is trying to sound rational but he is still pushing socialist ideas. when you listen to him he wants
6:52 pm
to talk about universal healthcare. just different on how he wants to achieve it. >> does any of this get new traction with the majority of america? when you look at these candidates if any of them be president trump, i mean the government is taking over everything. >> let me say this. this plays into president terms wheelhouse. he'd like to make it about socialism versus capitalism. if i were advising the 2020 democrats i think the biggest mistake they're doing is making their number on constituency illegal aliens. they need to start talking about what's best for americans and putting america first. i think if they did that they can make it a close race. melissa: they also want to make the president out to be a horrible, races, white supremacist. that's behind their strategy. does that work? >> here's the deal. they said to say he was a puppet for putin, that didn't work. now they say trump is a white supremacist which we know is not true. the reason is, they can find an
6:53 pm
issue because the economy is actually going pretty well. basically they have gone down the wall politics which is name calling. i think eventually president trump could turn this around and won a very narrow election because he essentially since fdr every president who with the recession has been reelected. >> thank you. up next, as the presidential field up for progressives that and more, next. or -- that you can't be both inside and outside. most people haven't driven a lincoln. discover the lincoln approach to craftsmanship at the lincoln summer invitation. right now, get 0% apr on all 2019 lincoln vehicles plus no payments for up to 90 days. only at your lincoln dealer.

in inspite of the gaffes, and yesterday he still hanging on to the lead? >> did is interesting, this is something a lot of us didn't expect. especially what has happened in last few months. i don't think it is too late for another candidate to jump in and steal the spotlight, we need to keep an eye for someone coming in and potentially winning. melissa: who would it be? warren is only person with spark, mayor pete has been popular but he can't get real numbers, who do you think could do that? >> there was a lot of talk on michelle obama. she said there ask a zero percent chance she would jump in. it could be out of left field, you look at a lot of people from the beginning that people thought would gain more traction, orourke is polling at
