5:04 am
republicans. this is yet another attempt to silence conservatives. since twitter knows president trump has the most sophisticated online program ever known. joe biden and his camp put out a different sort of statement. they were actually for the move and had they said this. we appreciate that twitter recognizes that they should not permit disproven smears like those from the trump campaign to appear in advertisements on their platform. now the pressure as you saids is building on facebook. in his announcement, dorsey seemed to throw some shade at facebook's ceo, mark zuckerberg, who just last week was grilled on capitol hill where he not only defended his social network's decision to allow political advertising but also to even allow ads that make false claims. zuckerberg, though, pushing back on twitter's ban, saying i don't think it's right for private companies to censor politicians or the news, instead, i believe the better approach is to work

5:18 am
countries and as we p come closerrer to the u.s. election, would europe be the start of the next trade war? lauren: right. and then usmca is still not signed. there are certainly issues out there. as we're moving through earnings season and we do have this trade war with beijing, is it interesting to you or curious to you that more companies aren't mentioning that it is hurting them? >> yeah, i definitely think a lot of companies are sort of hoping for a resolution and sort of expecting the best. but at the same time, you have to think if we had a trade war, what would it mean for the u.s. consumer. and the u.s. economy is really driven by the consumer. it could mean actually bad inflation, right, because higher prices in the form of tariffs mean higher prices. that could be a takin a stagflay environment. lauren: we got our gdp print

full house is expected of to vote on a resolution outlining the rules of the democrats' impeachment inquiry. let's bring in griff jenkins, live in the nation's capitol. they're battling over everything. what gives, where do we go from here? >> reporter: this is the first time foreign aa fair team members will go on the record. expect a fiery debate this morning. mid-morning, history will recorded. it's important to note, this is not a vote on articles of impeachment but rather on the resolution to codify the impeachment process. no republican is expected to vote for it. only five republicans have yet to declare their support. the resolution needs 217 to pass. the rules committee chairman had this to say. >> five or 10 years from now people will ask each o of what e did in this moment, what we did when won fronted with this crisis. as much as this president flaunts the constitution, we are going to protect it.
5:25 am
>> reporter: hearings on the hill continue today. tim morrison will testify and there's news that the former national security advisor, john bolton, has been summoned, bolton's attorney, charles cooper, telling fox news bolton is not ready to appear. this as a top house republican is blasting the entire impeachment investigation. >> if this was in a court of law, there would be a mistrial right now, based upon what these democrats have done. it is the fruit of the poisonous tree. this would all be thrown out. but only in nancy's house do we write all new laws and you get no due process. >> reporter: finally, the burning beltway he question of who the whistleblower is may soon be answered. reports are surfacing with one name in particular but we are not naming him or her. cheryl: for more on this let's bring in attorney misty maris.
5:26 am
he said if this was in a court of law all of this would be thrown out, it would be a mistrial. there's been so much criticism of how adam schiff has handled the secret witness testimony. >> all of that would be part of the public proceeding in a court of law. as far as the rules and regulations in a outer could, there would be -- rules and regulations in a court, there would be due process. the judge would only decide whether or not something was relevant, not the democrats decide whether or not republicans can call a witness p or subpoena a witness. so certainlies those are concerns that republicans are fightinfighting. cherylfighting for. cheryl: today they'll have the vote about the inquiry. this takes it to another level where you'll get public hearings so all of the secret testimony -- there will still be closed r door testimony from what i understand for national security but the open hearings, doesn't this kind of change the course of the inquiry and open it up more to not just political but
5:27 am
legal jeopardy for some of these witnesseses. >> absolutely. it's going to be public testimony, on the record. everyone will have access to the testimony and who knows where it will lead. we don't necessarily have all of the information about what happened behind those closed doors. so certainlies this could open up more doors, it could lead to additional investigations. we don't know where it's going. cheryl: let's talk about the other big legal story we're following on fox business, epstein, jeffrey epstein and his death. it was ruled a suicide. michael boden a criminal pathologist came on fox and friends yesterday and says he believes it was homicide, it was murder. how does had that change what his family -- how his family deals with the estate. under suicide, insurance policy doesn't pay out. if it's a murder they do. >> absolutely. if there's a suicide, a lot of insurance policies bodies claim- would disclaim. cheryl: i don't know if there's
5:28 am
an insurance policy but i'm pointing that out. >> it would be a huge amount of money at stake if there's an insurance policy. the family hired him, a renowned forensic pathologist. they're challenging the cause of death because there were suspicious circumstances. they want more information from the federal investigation to make that conclusive finding but based on boden's independent analysis, he says there needs to be a further investigation as to whether or not this was a homicide. cheryl: yes or no, does this change anything for the victims? >> it doesn't really change anything for the victims. it's more about the estate and how that plays out. cheryl: misty, thank you as always for all things legal. lauren: a fox business alert for our viewers. the south korean military is confirming that north korea launched two unidentified projectiles overnight. the japanese coast guard said the missiles landed in the ocean outside of their jurisdiction. this follows reports that
5:29 am
pyongyang is growing impatient with stalling nuclear talks and are reeling from sanctions. last month they fired an underwater ballistic missile for the first time in three years. this is one of the events that is making investors nervous this morning. dow is down 75 points, s&p down about 9, nasdaq giving up 12 after blockbuster earnings from apple and facebook. we also have word that china might be doubting a long-term trade deal with the u.s. so the market is jittery this morning. we may not know how much elizabeth warren's medicare for you all plan will cost but she just made a major admission on how much something else will cost. and a huge push to shut down a haunted house that requires health insurance and a 40-page waiver. the owner ain't going down without a fight p. we'll have details straight ahead on "fbn: a.m." ♪

an economist at the university ofs massachusetts amherst said that could result in 2 million jobs lost. he said those would be mostly administrative positions and insurers, doctors offices and he said that politicians who want to move toward that system, medicare for all, have to think about what a, quote, just transition, a fair transition would look like. what would that look like for you. >> i agree. i think this is part of the cost issue. and should be part of a cost plan. lauren: that was presidential hopeful, often the frontrunner, elizabeth warren, confirming that medicare for all plans like the one she is supporting will lead to millions of lost jobs. let's bring in washington examiner commentary writer kaley mcgee. thank you for joining us. >> thank you. lauren: medicare for all, hot on the trail. we don't have a lot of answers, especially not from elizabeth warren. she says she going to come out
5:34 am
with a plan soon. what do you expect her to say? >> i mean, i think that she's going to say the exact same thing that bernie sanders has been saying and that he doesn't have to provide details right now because obviously it's still a long ways off. and that's why this makes medicare for all an easy target to be honest. you see joe biden and the other more moderate democratic candidates attacking sanders and warren for their medicare for all plans because they don't have a plan. they don't know how they're going to pay for this. they don't know what the social and economic fallout is going to be. and they don't know how they're going to implement it. lauren: the more moderates, joe biden, i do have a plan, i know what it's going to cost and adopted mayor pete buttigieg's language, medicare for all plan for those who want it. is that biden saying look, everybody, i do have the winning strategy here on an issue that you all care about. >> yeah, that's biden playing the primary game, to be
5:35 am
completely honest. he's trying to win over both the moderate and more radical voters and saying yeah, we'll adopt medicare for all, only for those who want it. in reality, that's not how it's going to play out, it's going to be all or nothing. lauren: speaking of the pry mayor youly game, elizabeth warren, you how is she going to do when it comes to raising money and where he she's getting money from in a general election. there's a report that she's telling corporate democratic donors that she's going to moderate her harsh anti-business tone. okay, maybe she will do that but is she going to accept their money. that's something she said she wouldn't do. and she's going to need it because trump and the r envelope c have 7 -- rnc have a $700 million war chest right now. >> he's out-fund raising them right now, five to one. it would undermine one of her key campaign platforms which is rejecting big money politics. joe biden has flip-flopped on the issue because he's
5:36 am
cash-strapped. if warren isn't able to make up the money with small donors and grass roots organizations, she really might flip-flop on this issue as well. lauren: and then she looks hypocriteical to some potential voters. >> it will may some democratic voters mad who relied on the key platform of hers. bernie sanders is the only guy that's consistent on this issue. lauren: kayla mcgee, thank you very much. >> thank you. cheryl: all right. we are seeing a little bit of an escalation in the selloff this morning in the futures market, the tide really turning. the dow is down 83, s&p down 9 and three quarters, now 10 points, nasdaq down 18 and a quarter. bloomburg report is wroting chinese officials as having conversations in beijing where they say that they will not budge on the issues in the u.s.-china trade deal and they are concerned about president trump's impulsive nature and he could back out of any agreement even if it was signed. again, that is pointing our
