maria: thank you today in excel and mark tepper. >> likewise. maria: see you tomorrow. stuart: what was tepper wearing their? good morning everyone. when we start the program we look for the big story, the news that dominates. inflation in particular energy price inflation, natural gas producing 40% of our electricity, it heats half of our homes, storm damage, biden's green policies pushing

that gas to a ties price level in 7 years. he will feel it in your electricity bill and home heating bill too. china's, just party intends to control everything, they've limited the time youngsters can play video games and now put limits on any new games was a big dropper chinese internet stocks, blame xi jinping. game stock tumbles. they brought in more revenue and lost a lot of money. united airlines, if an employee claims religious exemption for vaccination that employee will be put on unpaid leave. that is hardball. other employers desperate to bring people back to the same thing? that is what president biden is likely to say in his big speech on covid, get the jab or else.

not much change today though i see a little red for the dow, down 11 points, s&p down two, fractional gain on the nasdaq. as for the cryptos they are down, they change course, very little change. later on the show biden's incompetent cabinet, identity seems more competent than confidence. afghanistan, we are negotiating with terrorists with the release of american hostages. general jack keane told by biden to resign from a military board because he used to work for trump. thursday september 9th, 2021, "varney and company" is about to begin.

president biden is going to address the nation at 5:00 pm eastern. will he get permission to answer questions? >> i am supposed to stop and walk out of the room here. i will stop, with your permission i will walk into the room. stuart: pretty extraordinary. we've been talking about this for a while. the president has to ask permission. who is running the show? >> funny joke, the joke is not as funny. he said some version of this statement once a week now and that is concerning because you are the president of the united states and when we are looking for leadership and confused by what we are seeing at the border in afghanistan for the

president to say that raises questions. is somebody else pulling the strings and the average person has to think yes. stuart: is he up to the job? difficult question. i've been asking about his cognitive ability for couple weeks, do you think he is up to the job? >> guests like doctor rodney jackson who understand to evaluate our president, he sees things based on president biden's cognitive ability that make him question his fitness for office. there are many steps to go. many have invoked the 20 fifth amendment, should he be removed from office for his incapacity? that is far down the field but there's enough evidence out there leading us to be like

what is going on? stuart: a politico headline, there is no good news, biden's of summer put dems on high alert, there's a warning from a democrat strategist from his own party, when biden was elected it was supposed to be the adults are back in the room to take charge. turns out we can't do anything. any democratic strategists who thinks this won't impact midterms or biden being reelected, don't know what they are talking about. 's biden's team competent to bring them back politically? >> based on the last few months the answer is no. even if they were to resuscitate him, the president's party loses seats in congress and the midterm election regardless of how the president is doing. if history is an indication biden expected to lose seats in a moment he took office in january, the last eight month,

the disaster in afghanistan and at the border, the fact the economy is pretty good but apparently to screw that up coming inflation and other measures. if that holds and 12 months, 13 months it is going to hurt democrats at the polls. stuart: thanks for being with us. always appreciate it. we are looking at another day of what looked like initially fairly small losses on wall street. down 25 on the dow, up for the nasdaq, not much change. here is my opinion. i think the fed will keep printing money, doing what president biden wants because jerome powell wants to keep his job. what say you? >> i can't disagree with that. i don't know what is going on in powell's head but he is providing police of monetary policy is.

that is a concern, to toe the line of this administration, to be reappointed. it is a 50/50 shot. stuart: critical of what the fed is doing at the moment, an enormous amount of money, never seen anything like it before but i have to think the end point is inflation. what say you? >> in the early stages of inflation and, the question is whether it is transitory, whether late stages are in the next few months. the fed's notion they've got the tools to deal with inflation they will raise

interest rates and this fed doesn't want to do that but they exacerbated income inequality, all these folks on fixed incomes got hurt badly, equity owners and homeowners doing great. stuart: hard to see the stock market power ring ahead to a series of new highs. >> can't disagree with that. we are at a bull market and we will get 5000 on the s&p by next year. as for the rest of the year september and october have a history of being rough months. keep in mind, for buying opportunities.

they held up remarkably well under the circumstances. when my anxiety level keeps rising, you know how it is. thanks, we will see you again soon. i want to say good morning to lauren. the fed released the beige book about the economy and how it is around the country. what is the latest? >> companies passing on the cost, could mean significant price increases for consumers but i thought inflation was temporary. guess not. downshifted to a moderate pace particularly with regard to dining out and traveling and as for jobs and extensive labor shortage in many districts. in atlanta they noted the expiration of the unemployment benefits at the start of the school year had not increased the supply of applicants.

there is a disconnect and a problem with the fundamental market. of kids go back to school and don't get unemployment checks about implying for 11 million jobs that are open. stuart: what is going on? what is going on? we have three hours to do it. look at the cryptos. they are almost all up except ethereum which is down a fraction. the country legalized bitcoin. >> if you can buy and sell it. it is not legal tender but it is the fifth, open the market to businesses, bottom line is bitcoin here to stay. stuart: bitcoin here to stay. check futures. a day of losses at "the opening bell". larry elder campaigns in california and comes under

stuart: that is the center of america's silver mining industry, take a look at natural gas down a fraction but it is a 7-year high for the last couple days. i want to bring in senator john barrasso, a member of the energy and natural resources committee in the senate. inflation, energy hurting your state, who do you think is at fault? >> president biden's policies, wyoming is an energy powerhouse, so as our country. when president biden became president he took the next 2 american energy, he -- the coastal pipeline, a moratorium on oil and gas lease on public land, killed alaskan energy and

we are having energy inflation, people filling up the tank, $25 more difficult was hank, if you do that every week you are talking about dollars more out of your paycheck so president biden is taking a hit in terms of energy inflation was what is the white house done? astonishingly they have begged opec plus which include saudi arabia and russia to produce more energy and sell it to us. how can that be? where would you find that? the white house put it on their own website last month that they have gone -- i don't understand and want to know why is it better to buy energy from saudi arabia, from russia than it is to produce it here, why ship jobs overseas, why would we undermine our own energy integrity, energy security, why would we go for a jump in prices, it is astonishing to me and we are better as a nation if we are selling energy to our

friends than buying it from our enemies. i look at this and if the democrats are able to get this $3.5 trillion tax and spending bill through energy costs are going to continue to go up even higher and it will undermine the stability of our grid. stuart: could you address the question of why we have nearly 11 million jobs open and people not taking those jobs when we still have a couple million people unemployed? seems like it is not necessarily just these emergency payments keeping people at home. there's got to be something else. what do you think is going on? >> people i getting back to work in wyoming and we need to get people back to work all across the country. there are still help wanted signs. i was talking to a small business owner who told me he was running ads eight weeks in a row, not a single person responded to the ad.

in wyoming we stopped what i call bonus payments of unemployment where people are making more to not work to stay at home and they were to work, we stopped those in june and july, what we saw in wyoming was unemployment numbers improve, not just in cheyenne but all 23 of our counties. we are heading in the right direction but my concern is if democrats do what they want to do this month which involves raising taxes it will make the recovery even tougher. this is not the time to raise taxes. how do you solve this problem? the democrats think government is the solution to the problem and i think as ronald reagan did the government is the problem. stuart: later today the president outlines the fight against the delta variant. we are told he's going to be recommending more mandates for vaccines and masks. where do you stand on mask and vaccine mandates?

>> as a doctor, i've been vaccinated, vaccines were, we know they were can i encourage people who haven't been vaccinated to get vaccinated. i'm against the mandates. i don't think we should be telling people what to do. give them information, they make decisions, the american people are smart, they will make the right decision and as a doctor, someone taking care patients for 25 years my recommendation would be get vaccinated is all proper hygiene efforts, this delta variant if you haven't been vaccinated can be very deadly, much higher rate of hospitalizations in wyoming, talking to the wyoming hospital association later today on the specific point, 9.8 of every 10 people in the hospital in wyoming with coronavirus are people that had not been vaccinated. stuart: get the jabber but don't be forced to get the jabber. senator, always a pleasure, thanks for being here today.

she was asked about this, quote, i don't know what the number will be. we are marking it at $3 trillion, we are not going above that. i think rather than talking about the cost because we will pay for more than half, maybe all the legislation. she says half. if you are talking $3.5 trillion that is a lot of money and they need senator manchin's support. is good with $1.5 trillion, he doesn't want to add to the national debt. stuart: don't know what they are going to do, you try to finance $3.5 trillion plus the $1.9 trillion from before with tax increases you cripple the playbook, shut us down if you try to do that. better move on before i lose my temper. futures going down for the dow and the s&p but slight rise for the nasdaq, "the opening bell" is next.

pain talking markets, you say the world is awash in money, how much money are we talking about and why don't we like it? >> not just globally, not just the us, a lot of money, this has been a global phenomenon, $32 trillion created since the beginning of the pandemic. from $94 trillion, to so much money. stuart: why don't you think it? it is on the stock market a world of good. >> the strategies that tell us about the market correction, the fed probably stop the bond buying or tapering as much with peak earnings and growth.

they raise taxes, the problem is all this money funneling its way to the stock market have so much cash, they are able to raise capital cheaply but it is all going to be very inflationary. i don't think it is transitory, you think about the way wages are going up, demand is strong and it is not enough. stuart: when does the inflation crunch happen? >> i think we are there. everyone is ignoring that it is not going away. we think eventually supply chains will get normal again and wages speak out. we have 10.9 million jobs available in the us, more than anybody expected and only 9 million people on unemployment, that is a huge gap that won't

correction, interest rates creeping up week after week. on the 10 year treasury, 2% by the end of the year and on your portfolio you have commodities. stuart: reading between the lines, you are saying a correction, maybe a crash before the end of the year. we will have you back to explain more later. opening the market it is mine:30 eastern time. here we go. we are on the downside a tiny fraction, down 20 points, have look at the s&p ever so slightly lower, 0.04% and the nasdaq the same story except it is up 0.6%. show me big tech where the money is, all of it on the upside. apple, amazon, microsoft,

stuart: looks like a modest turnaround, the nasdaq is up 38. look at big tech. all of them on the upside. microsoft is a public. alphabet, apple, amazon, facebook on the upside and president biden delivers his covid speech later today. you have some details. more mandates coming. >> a 6 point plan, 0.one vaccine requirement for federal workers, strong suggestion you should get the vaccine, booster shots, keeping schools open,

tightening regulations like masking, the females show the white house and teachers union working hand on hand on the requirements today. more testing, protecting the economic recovery. stuart: sounds like not something i want to hear. doctor mark siegel joins us. what do you think of the president saying you got to get vaccinated and private employers, we strongly advise you to get vaccinated and masks for everybody and new rules in schools? >> let me break that down. there's been too much focus on masks per se because that has some value, we don't know how much but it is not the answer. that is a political tool. the key is rapid home testing and though the president invoked the defense production act in february there hasn't been movement on that and that is the way to protect schools.

not to mask them up in the school and still spread it. teachers getting vaccinated makes sense and to your point about the vaccine mandates the federal government is limited as to what they can do. they can vaccinate mandate for federal workers for their own health care workers for the military as they have done and cut funding to nursing homes as they threatened to do. they can tell private citizens to take this vaccine. they can suggest it, to the businesses themselves to say how do we stay safe and open and showing proof of immunity that you had covid or the vaccine or getting tested is enough but government overreach is in play, home testing, and the bully pulpit. stuart: how much you know about

this new variant, mu. it is detected in every state. what we know about it? >> it is only 0.one% of all variance worldwide. i'm more concerned about the delta variance because it is 93% of cases in the united states but the problem with the mu variant comes from south africa. looks like it may be resistant to the monoclonal antibodies and somewhat to the vaccines. the good news is it looks like delta spreads much more easily. if that is true delta will crowd this out and it won't become a problem but it does speak to the point we have variants emerging another countries that aren't fully vaccinated and by the way my opinion, the wait to get poorer countries will be vaccinated isn't for us to give up our vaccine supply, that won't do it.

the production has to come locally, get the whole world vaccinated. not some humanitarian export that touches the tip of the iceberg. stuart: i check the pace of new infections in the united states every day. today i see a decline in new infections, first time i've seen it in months. does that mean we have reached the peak of the delta infection and looking at the other side soon. >> i hope so. i was predicting that we would start to see that in september. the scourge of new infections we have seen, natural immunity helps still slow this down plus the vaccine uptick in the southern and western states. i think we can see our way to the other side of this in the next couple weeks and i'm looking at the same trend you

are and it is making me more hopeful. the key is not to overload our hospitals and that is stuart: we are headed. stuart: don't have the government overstep its reach on this issue. see you later. how about this one? and vaccinated employees at united airlines, they are grounded, religious exemptions but there is a gigantic catch. lauren: united airlines mandated vaccinations words employees but they said if you get a medical religious exemption we will grant it to you. now they are telling those that were approved they are put on temporary unpaid leave starting in october. when can they get back to work? when the pandemic, quote, meaningfully recedes. at first we questioned 10 companies mandate the vaccine. can they enforce it? we saw companies are enforcing their vaccine mandate. if you are not vaccinated you can't get paid at united.

stuart: that is draconian. what are they going to do? they haven't got enough people to work in the first place. will they push people out because vaccination? >> they are strong-arming you to roll up your sleeve and come back to work. stuart: it won't work with everybody. what is the plan, you have more. what is the plan for and vaccinated members of the new york city police department? >> 47% are vaccinated. stuart: less than half of the cops? >> the unvaccinated must get tested each week on their own time and their own dime unless they go to an nypd clinic or stay home, don't get paid, this policy starts monday, the union says we don't like it, testing should be done on the job at the city's expense. stuart: coming up here's what we have. college students are not concerned about inflation until they hear about the price of beer.

ahead of the california recall. he showed support for newsom in a tweet. he said your vote could be difference between protecting our kids, putting them at risk. helping californians recover, taking us backwards. vote no on the republican recall. president biden will head there next week. he is campaigning for current governor newsom. now you know. now this, democrat divide deepens over president biden should nominate fed chair powell for a second term. what is the split? lauren: the fed chair should not be politicized. that is the what is happening now. that is the message from senator tester from "the wall street journal." the house progressives democrats, the squad, they want powell out because he is not implementing their climate change agenda and progressive policies. the senate actually confirms the fed chair. so it is interesting to see the many lawmakers, especially progressive ones trying to push

the central bank to find ways to adopt their agenda but that is not the job of the federal reserve or jay powell. stuart: what would you say to this? as long as jay powell continues to fund the programs of the democrat left, he will stay as fed chair? lauren: i think it's a stretch. stuart: you think so? lauren: i think it's a stretch. i give our congress more credit than that. stuart: as we go from lawrence jones, there is room for divide and division around this desk here in new york city. time's up by the way. >> you already trying to get rid of me. stuart: not so fast. not so fast. thank you very much, lawrence. >> thank you, brother. stuart: check out the markets. we have a dow up 115 points. the nasdaq up 52. i call that a pretty good rally so far. d.r. barton is with us. address all the money sloshing around. we hear 10 trillion printed around the world since 2020. how do you feel about that?

>> well we all know, stuart, you were talking about jay powell and his reconfirmation, that the fed here has been piling lots of money, lots of liquidity into the market by keeping interest rates low, by buying up hundreds of billions of dollars of bonds per month and the thing is, that has been going on all over the world. actually europe has even put in, injected more money. the bank of japan almost as much money as the fed. we've seen lots of money being put into markets in general and all of that money, that 10 trillion number, since early 2020, a lot of it is finding its way into the u.s. stock market, and will continue pushing that stock market up. stuart: so you don't see any serious pullback in the immediate future? >> not in the immediate future. we talked a little about it last week stuart, september, the weakest month of the year. so we could see up and down, like this morning, we were down

.3 of a percent. now we're back up again. i think it will be a choppy month. i think our next major move to the upside, stuart. we may even get a blow off top before the end of the year. stuart: that is what another market analyst, ryan payne said to us earlier this morning. he is looking for a melt-up because of this money sloshing around the world and some of it coming to the united states. repeat it. you see a melt-up in the near future for stokes price, really? >> yes and not only see it, the analysis is showing us we have a pretty good chance of this. one of the things analysts have been talking about not many stocks participating in the last leg up. well that has completely reversed course especially in the nasdaq. there is what is called a momentum thrust a breadth of the nasdaq participating. lots of new stocks. when that happens out of the high we typically get a big blow-off top. it has happened before, before

the 1999 blow-off top. so i believe we have a good chance for a big move up, maybe not even that big drop down afterwards. stuart: what do your clients say when you say that to them? i bet they are just like me, no, no, can't be, wringing their hand anxiety, that is what is happening, isn't it? >> it is. there is anxiety again. we find another hated bull market. sentiment against the up move. people going we can't believe this will continue on. the permabears, people that see top at every corner have been wrong so many years. let's ride this until we get real indication having a downturn, that inflation indicators really get worse, that the fed really starts tapering. that we have slowdown in gdp. until those happen, let's not try to anticipate them. let's ride it up. stuart: just remember those permabears one day will be

dozen tax tax proposals? reporter: higher price, more taxes to pay for it. that is what the senate finance committee is tackling today. with some of their members. they're reviewing a list of two dozen tax proposals trying to find agreement to include in the reconciliation package to come up with the $3.5 trillion bill but not all of it is going to be paid for but here is some of the taxes, tax ideas that have been floated on capitol hill as ways to pay for it. a lot of this is going to come down cracking down on the rich. they're going to spend more money on irs enforcement to catch tax cheats. they're also looking reinstating top corporate tax rate to 39.6%. they're looking taxing capital gains, raising taxes on corporations from 21% to 28%.

another way to pay for this could really fall on the shoulders of investors. they're looking for a tax on all trades, .1% of every wall street trade is something progressives. particularly senator elizabeth warren want to see but another proposal under, being considered is a market to market tax that targets derivatives and carried interest. normally investors don't pay taxes on gains until they sell but under a proposal floated by chairman, senator ron wyden of the finance committee it would mean investors pay taxes every year, even if they still own the asset but there has been disagreement between knows those on capitol hill and those on the white house whether or not the package should be entirely paid for or just partly paid for. >> this is going to be paid for. we will pay for more than half of, maybe all of the legislation. reporter: stuart, of course, businesses are already reacting to some of the proposals that

have been floated, particularly the national association of manufacturers this morning just released a statement trying to get ahead of what congress is considering saying this, if you raise taxes on manufacturers, there will be no avoiding widespread job losses, slower growth and wage stagnation. the tax increases under consideration by congress will directly harm the men and women who make things in america. the stuart, the bottom line is this, whether or not the package can be completely paid for comes down to whether democrats agree on what tax proposals to include. remember they need to get the 60-vote threshold in the senate. they do need at least some people on board with this. stuart. stuart: they just want your money. simple as that. hillary vaughn, thank you very much indeed. change the subject. get idea of mask mandates in schools that kind of thing. we have emails released from may of this year which may show, show the biden administration

tightened mask guidelines after threats from a prominent teachers union. how about that? details, please. lauren: i remember this. this was in may. cdc said may 13th, masked individuals do not need to wear masks indoors. i said, oh, we won't have masks irin schools. i stopped buying masks. may 14th, show you email came from the national education association, quote, cdc has consistently said mitigation measures including to protect the most vulnerable remain necessary in schools. it goes on, because this will also make it hard for school boards and leaders of institutions of higher ed to do the right thing by maintaining mitigation measures. we need cdc clarification right away. they got it. some of their suggestions, adopted in cdc guidelines. that drew criticism from a lot of people including senator ted cruz i love this tweet. the lengths of which joe biden

cratered to union bosses. he prioritizes union boss politics to american kids. stuart: got that right. lauren: my daughter is in a mask, with plexiglass six feet apart from everybody else. some measures need to be taken. that is a lot of protection for a young kid. stuart: i want to bring in congresswoman nancy mace, congresswoman from south carolina. congresswoman, later on today we'll hear from the president we understand he is going for mask mandates, get back to school, wear masks, get vaccinated. as a mom how do you feel about children in the classroom six, eight hours a day in a mask? >> i will be frank with you i believe parents should make health care decisions for their children and nobody else. delta is raging in south carolina per capita, we have the highest rate of infection now than any other state in the nation. when my kids went back to school, delta, until we spike, this thing peaks we'll be in

masks, wash our hands as much as we can to be distance. i don't want to get covid again. i don't want my kids to get covid. that is based on science. not based on unions telling the scientists what to do. we shouldn't be politicizing this pandemic. the reason there is a lot of hesitancy on taking reasonable measures is because the conflicts of information, having unions like the teachers unions, this is not the first time. they have done it over and over again. the problem -- stuart: mandate, isn't it? why can't parents make their own decision for their own children? why can't they do that? >> you can be, i'm against mandates of vaccinations and masks in schools. parents ought to make decisions for themselves and for their families. face it vaccination for kids has not been approved by the fda. so i don't, i don't doubt parents that want to wait until there is some approval there. so in the meantime, in my school, most of the kids go to

school in masks because we have delta going through the state of south carolina right now. we're making the right decision. we don't need government telling us what to do. so because you've got unions telling scientists what to do, telling the cdc, no wonder there is so much hesitancy doing the right thing in many cases. we should be doing this based on science. there shouldn't be conflict of information. we shouldn't have unions dictating what the government agencies do. stuart: do you think your children, any children, learn and socialize in a mask at school? >> i will tell you it is much more difficult to do that. when they're outside or eating lunch they can socialize better but six feet apart, five feet apart in classroom, or covered by plexiglass it is difficult. it's a lot better than virtual school. i do not want to go back to a place where my children are doing online learning in virtual school. it is devastating for us. i am a single parent.

what more do you know, trey? reporter: stuart, good morning. we have some good news, that plane with around 200 foreigners on board has taken off from mohammed karzai international airport in kabul. it is headed here to doha and will land in the next few hours. according to report there are around 200 foreigners including americans on that flight who were granted permission by the taliban to leave afghanistan. they will leave on a boeing 777 qatar airways plane landing here in doha. amidst negotiations between taliban, qatar and turkey. the main issue is security. the taliban does not want foreign security at the airport. there are big obstacles to having the taliban control perimeter around entry points and terminals. the special envoy for conflict resolution held a press conference in kabul to discuss the efforts to get the airport up and running again. according to "the wall street journal," americans stuck in the northern city of mazar-i-sharif were told

to it come to the airport in kabul. it was unclear how many made the journey. eight flights are continuing with u.a.e. and pakistan delivering aid to the country. promising development with over half of afghanistan relying on international aid to survive. this is coming on deteriorating situation on the ground, stuart. yesterday there were images, reports, indicating local journalists were detained by the taliban, and beat trying to cover a women's rights rally, stuart. stuart: we want to know more about that, trey yingst from qatar. thanks for being here. lara logan is here right now. lara has been in touch with those directly left behind. what are you hearing? how are they have been treated? >> they describe what they're living through absolute hell on earth, stuart. they are many of them in hiding. every journalist is in hiding. they have been hunted. we did something unconscionable.

we left thousands of biometric scanners and database, highest level of intelligence. the taliban and al qaeda, haqqani network who are the afghan al qaeda, using that along with manifest we gave them, literally like giving "schindler's list" to the gestapo. they are literally hunting down people on. the plane taking off does not have highest risk, most vulnerable afghans on it because they are ones going to be killed. stuart: what do you know about what ask actually happening, people being killed, being beaten, being dragged out of houses do you know for this is happening? >> for a fact. i've seen images of it. women going on out streets of cab gull, not just women, i watched countless videos protesting going to the pakistani consulate to protest. this is pakistan's invasion and terrorist proxy. they are being beaten and killed.

i have pictures of afghan women lying dead on the streets. there are reports from u.s. intelligence sources of 1-year-old boys in panjshir valley being beheaded. i lost count of the reports families from the panjshir valley, who are people who made everything possible for the u.s. in afghanistan, being, taken out of their homes and forced into minefields to use as human mine clearances. forced into the fight. what is happening now is beyond the pale. beyond anything we can even describe to you. it is being hidden by the taliban and by the biden administration. everyone in the state department and national security apparatus who are pushing this policy of endorsing terror as a form of governing. stuart: they're buying off the terrorists. i presume that we are, that these hostages are being held to ransom. >> yes. stuart: we're paying money to get them out. this will go on for very long time. >> this is what americans need to know. we have been supporting the central bank of afghanistan

forever. we send them pallets of cash, more than $150 million every week. the taliban wants that money. pakistan, their masters who control everything they do. they don't want to pay for this. they warrant the u.s. to pay for a terrorist superstate. they want your tax dollars and every american that works hard in this country, they want victims of 9/11, they want every soldier's family to pay for their terrorist superstate. and so the biden administration's plan was a sort of limited conditional recognition, diplomatic recognition of these terrorists. they would say, based on conditions and what they do, right? not the fact that we have haqqani, one of the most wanted terrorists in the world, with a five million dollar bounty on his head, as terror minister of islamic emirate. don't look at that. look what they do. now we're looking at what they do. it is worse than what they did before. tell me what does that make us.

stuart: what does that make us? >> it making us the most despicable nation on either. stuart: lara i appreciate that. >> thank you. stuart: secretary of defense lloyd austin, chairman of joint chiefs marble millie, will testify on capitol hill on september 28th. i'm sure they will be talking about to try to explain the afghan mess that you just heard about. then there is this, tom brady and his wife gisele are getting in the game, the crypto game. roll tape. >> all right. this might be tough. >> no, he loves you. >> first even if you wanted him back he wouldn't take you. >> yeah you would. >> what's hupp. >> i'm getting into crypto. >> are you in? stuart: brady goes crypto. tell you more about that later. president biden suggests he is not the one calling the shots. who is running the show. chris wallace joins me. he is next.

we don't even play doctors on tv but he is 78 years old. if you look at video of joe biden five years ago, let alone 10 or 20, there does seem to be a difference but you know, the concerns that i have about joe biden these days and decisions he is making, particularly with regard to afghanistan are not that he is in, not in charge. it is that he is in charge. this is a considered decision on miss part. remember, you know, back in 2011 when the decision whether or not to take out bin laden, the raid he was one of two top officials in the administration who was against it. stuart: on this program former director of national intelligence, ric grenell, i asked him who is in charge? if the president is asking permission to answer questions, that kind of thing, who is in charge? he said obama is pulling the strings because susan rice used to work for obama, susan rice is

now the domestic -- you're looking at me in a strange sort of way here, chris, but susan rice runs domestic policy. her assistants used to be blinken and avril haines. there schussed to be a who is calling the shots, ric grenell think it is obama in the background, not biden, what do you say to that? >> i don't believe it. first of all antony blinken was national security advisor to biden for years, top people in the white house staff. ron klain, mike donelan, steph rickety, i understand this idea of this larger conspiracy. i think instead of sitting there wondering who is pulling the strings i think we ought to be concerned about is joe biden himself up to the job. because i think he is in control. i think this decision to pull out of afghanistan the way he did and the way he executed it, that was pure biden.

remember back in 2009 when he was vice president obama wanted to surge tens of thousands of troops. biden was against it then. i think he had a feeling how we need to proceed in afghanistan all along but i think that is joe biden for good or ill, not somebody else. stuart: we'll agree to differ on that one, chris. i want to talk about your new book. your last book i read flat-out, cover to cover in 12 hours. your new book, "countdown bin laden." the 247-day hunt to bring the 9/11 mastermind to justice. do you say in your book how he got away from afghanistan in the first place? >> well, yeah. he was corned in tora bora. there was a question, this was back in 2001. there was a question inside of the bush administration how many troops should be sent there. rumsfeld was about go light and

as a result, he was able to slip the noose. he ended up in pakistan and the trail went cold. the trail wept cold for nine years. there were leads. they were all dead ends until where my book begins in august, august 27th of 2010 when three members of the counterterrorism section of the cia come in to see then director panetta and say we have got a lead. frankly we think it is the best lead since tora bora. that begins an adventure story. 247 days. we take you into the cia as they're trying to figure out is he in this compound? the meetings in the situation room with the president's war cabinet what do we do? then the military. bill mcraven, head of joint special operations command, seals on the helicopters going into abbottabad. rob o'neill, member of seal team six, goes upstairs to the third floor, ends up face-to-face.

i promise you. you said you read this in 10 or 12 hours? i think you can beat the record here. this is even more after page turner. you know how it turns out of i promise you. you're going to sit there turning pages, what happens next? stuart: chris wallace, i'm on it. if i can do it in 10 hours, you will be the first to know. just send me a flee copy. "countdown" bin lauden, chris wallace's new book. available shortly. i believe. >> no, it is ready right now in bookstores, in amazon. you can buy it today. yes, you will get a free copy. stuart: what a guy. chris wallace, you're all right. see you soon. >> thank you, my friend. stuart: new poll shows many americans think september 11th has changed how we live in america today. lauren, you looked at the poll. give me the numbers. lauren: 64% say 9/11 permanently changed how we live more than covid-19 has. 65% say policies implemented like airport security screenings

make the u.s. safer. i want to point out, look at that date. this poll was taken august 7th to 10th, before the u.s. pulled from afghanistan. i would like to see another poll. do voters still feel safe or has our anxiety heightened because of afghanistan? stuart: guarranty it's changed t would have to have changed. that poll was taken four days before the the afghan debacle. okay. need a new poll. thanks, lauren. check those markets please. they're holding on to a nice rally. still plenty of green. look at that 145 up for the dow industrials. 63 for the nasdaq. wait for this one. the state department is complaining that the taliban has a all male government. do they really expect terrorists to be woke? vivek ramaswamy wrote the book. he will be on next hour. college students are not worried about inflation until they hear the price of beer. watch this. >> have you noticed price of

♪. stuart: college students, not too concerned when asked about inflation until they heard how it jacked up the price of beer. ophelia jacobsen is a campus reform reporter and talks to me now. you spoke to students at university of florida about inflation and beer, run it through us. >> that is exactly right. i talked to dozens of students at the university of florida about inflation to see if he were concerned about it at all. at the beginning these students showed no concern for inflation. but that is when i brought in prices of every day goods college students uses gas, used cars, beer you. you can own imagine the shock these students have that the

price of beer rose 70% over the past year. take a look. have you guys noticed the price of everyday goods going up over the past year. not really. >> not too much since i just moved here. >> i have not necessarily noticed. >> what if i told you the guys the price of beer went up 70% over the past year? >> that's crazy. >> that's a lot. that is a lot of percent. >> makes having a fun night more expensive. >> oh, no. poor college students. >> that is atrocious. >> are you more concerned about inflation now? >> absolutely? >> yeah. definitely. >> definitely more concerned. >> get more expensive i guess. >> that student is exactly right. life and college parties are going to get a lot more expensive in the future. in all seriousness, one thing we learned from this video the best way to inform young voters about these key issues is really put it into perspective. inflation isn't a problem for a college student until they go to the grocery store to try to buy a 12 pack of corona and it costs 70% more than it did the year before.

that is why the work we do at leadership institutes campus reform is so important. we take policies made in washington, d.c., we show the real life consequences for students even 800 miles away. stuart: revelation to me. i did not know that beer was up 70% in the past year. i will take that. ophelia, thank you very much for being here. >> thank you. stuart: just check out the gambling stocks, please because the nfl starts tonight. there are 100 million people who live in states where you can gamble online, so you can do it very easily. estimated 45 million are expected to gamble on the games. look at the gambling stocks, draftkings, caesar's, score media, all of them on the upside as the nfl season begins. lauren, what's with tom brady and cryptos? lauren: so well he is in a new ad for cryptos, ftx trading with his wife gisele. >> all right. this one might be tough.

money will keep funneling into the stock market. don't care what the fed says i don't think it is transitory. >> next major move is to the upside. we might get a blow off before the end of the year. ♪♪ stuart: it is thursday september 9th. the dow is up 100, nasdaq up 55. look at big tech. earlier we were up across the board, slight loss for microsoft still at $300 a share. apple, google, amazon, facebook on the upside. there is a price to be paid for getting rid of fossil fuels, it is called inflation and it is happening now. natural gas is not a sexy

subjects but don't roll your eyes, prices are rising and we are going to feel it. 40% of america's electricity is produced from natural gas. when gas goes up so does your electric bill and home heating bill. half the homes in this country use natural gas and here comes fall and winter. the first thing president biden did was killed the keystone pipeline. that was a natural gas pipeline was the biden team from day one interrupted supply and the price goes up. new york state sits on top of a massive gas deposit but we are not allowed to get it. former governor cuomo stopped tracking and you can't run natural gas pipelines through new york state either, another restriction on supply. what about oil? nasty stuff, same story, biden takes a dim view of offshore drilling and drilling on federal land. abandoning our energy

independence and you pay higher prices to fill your tank. a result of storm damage that will be fixed but then what. energy prices based on supply and demand, restricted supply, strong demand, higher prices was voters have to decide if it is worth it. the third hour of "varney and company" just getting started. scott show many returns to the program, seems to me you restrict fossil fuels you get inflation and we are seeing it now and it will get worse, what say you? >> the idea nobody who make less than $400 will pay more in taxes but they are doing it at

the gas tank. you mentioned natural gas. if i told you the 52-week ranges from one dollar and $0.79 to 5:0 one and i told you today we were at $4.95 that will give you an idea what natural gas has done. everything is getting more expensive, we want to keep clean air and clean water here but letting other people do it and we buy off of them. the net difference to the world environment is 0. just hurts our people here. stuart: it is a political question. are voters prepared to pay for higher energy prices while we are trying to get rid of fossil fuels and china is laughing at us. this is a political question. it will be a big factor in 2022. what say you? >> we are throwing our own

industry under the bus. let's say the air stays in america you are fooling yourself. it doesn't make sense with the environment, throwing people under the bus, that is what i don't under the bus, paying more for somebody else to believe there air, which could come here we do it here. what is the question? stuart: are you a global warmer kind of guy or are you a skeptic? >> i believe climate change is all the time, i don't agree on why it is changing. humans at their core are self-centered people so we think we affect a lot of things and maybe we affect it maybe we don't but there just is many people are a lot of people that would argue humans don't have as big an effect on the climate as a lot of folks would like you to believe so if we started believing those folks in 1950 the world would have burned up by now.

stuart: great to have you back, clarity of vision and thinking, we appreciate that. i'm going to segue to california because california gubernatorial candidate larry elder has tweeted this with my security detail was physically assaulted, shot with a pellet gun, hit with projectile's. his team was attacked by a woman in a gorilla mask while walking through los angeles. roll it. >> getting eggs from behind. [bleep] stuart: california.

paris dennard is national spokesman for the rnc. you saw the video. is that what you would describe as a racist attack? >> i saw something that shouldn't happen in modern-day politics but what we see is when it comes to black conservatives the mainstream media and the democrat party and democrat leaders remain silent on the issue whether it is the way they treated justice clarence thomas, modern-day lynching going to senator tim scott when dick durbin, a token piece of legislation, interning on the heels during the trump years, because of support for donald trump or young man with the maga hat was kicked out of olive garden. the mainstream media is

ignoring acts of hostility, aggression and overtly attacking black conservatives and don't denounce it or apologize for it or give it the attention it deserves. it is wrong and should be stopped and gavin newsom should be ashamed of this action and speak out on it. stuart: do you think more black folks are going to be voting republican in the future? i used to ask this before the last election and you assured me the black vote for mister trump at the time was going to be bigger than it was in 2016 but it was the same. do you see any sign that black folks are moving towards the republicans? >> i think if you go back to the last election, double support from black women, 26% of the black mail vote and did better than he did in the last election so there is a trend

showing it is increasing, the conditions of black america today under the leadership of president biden and kamala harris the black community is suffering tremendously in 7 months, there hasn't been any bills back there for the black community looking at the jobs report. stuart: sorry to interrupt but if you look at unemployment of african americans went up 8.8%. >> that is right. the only demographic with an uptick, increase in unemployment in the last jobs report, black americans across the board, 7.9 unemployment for black women, 17.9% unemployment increased for black youth. 9.one unemployment for black men, that is a problem and you add on top of that the natural gas increase you are talking about where the food inflation when single mothers go to the

grocery store everything is more expensive, back-to-school supplies more expensive, gasoline more expensive, the black community gets shorthand when it comes to this administration. not a priority. we are not a priority and economically we are suffering at the biden administration are doing nothing to improve and uplift the lives of the black community under their watch. >> you were a big part of mister trump's campaign in 2016, in 2020. he is going to hold rallies in georgia and iowa. is he running in 2024? >> don't know if he's running in 2024. the rnc has remain neutral but we he is going to be doing is drumming up support for the midterm elections making sure republicans in georgia turn out to vote and keep georgia read and increase supported energy enthusiasm for the party that he grew and expanded and diversified. it is a good thing that more attention, energy and galvanizing grassroots supporters run republican

candidates for the midterm election. stuart: great to have you with us, don't be a stranger, see you again soon. let's get to lauren who is following american airlines. lauren: these growth fears are fading, you see airlines, economically sensitive stocks rally. stuart: johnson & johnson is moving. >> by one%. 14 million americans received the j and j vaccine, some twee 7 months ago. there are reports people are getting annoyed and in the dark about the booster, how the delta variant affects those who got the j&j shot. a lot of questions about information we are getting about boosters that the president might address tonight. stuart: last week we reported a number of companies that were hiring for the holidays. i understand that ups is hiring for the holidays. lauren: 100,000 workers and they could have you hired in 30

minutes time. looking at years passed you come in as a seasonal worker one third of those workers become full-time so this is good news, there are many jobs to be had. stuart: can you find them? 100,000 people who want to do that job? microsoft is delaying forever the return to the office. lauren: they return to office for their headquarters slated for october pushing it back and not giving a new date. that seems to be the status. we thought we were having a great return to normal september october and it is slowly pushed back and they won't say when. they don't know. stuart: microsoft indefinite delay on return to the office. the state department is concerned that the taliban and has an all-male government. they expect them to care about gender equality? president biden calling on x

what are the concerns about the vetting process? >> that is the heart but there are many more concerns and questions republicans are throwing at the white house and state department not getting many answers from them. congresswoman eva harrell is the latest to demand answers. she's concerned primarily that the us is performing, quote, in adequate background checks on afghan evacuees coming into the us. we know they are first taken to third-party countries arriving in the us. anthony blinken doing the accounting on the back end of things. the gop letter she just sent out a long with 40 other members of congress, dhs has

admitted it does minimal checks outside the united states and does not have access for criminal background check system. here is harrell about that. >> i don't think that is where americans are at risk. the number one priority should be bringing every american home from afghanistan and keeping every american safe on american soil. >> this comes as congressman mark green of tennessee raising his own questions claiming a source tells them evacuees are virginia military base have free reign over the facility and using ridesharing apps to leave the facility. the white house ignoring the deadline, 26 republicans calling for the same number of people needing to be evacuated but answers may come soon.

the senate armed services committee announcing its first oversight hearing on afghanistan begin september 20 eighth and defense secretary austin in joint chiefs chairman ellie are expected to testify. that will be the first hearing. stuart: it will be a big deal. thank you for that report. the administration telling a number of x trump officials to resign from military advisory boards. general jack keane is on the list and joins us now. can't imagine how you feel about this being told to redesign from an advisory board. will you resign? >> i'm not to resign, as of last night i like others who did not resign, terminated. i was appointed by donald trump in 2019 and like everyone

surveyed i saw it as an honor to support and assist an institution that has a remarkable history and synonymous with america's history and produce such extraordinary leaders for our country so even though i didn't attend the institution for 4 and half years when i was in the pentagon so very familiar with it. i love being there and seeing cadets and working with alicia that west point. it is so political, that is what this is, a political decision. stuart: just because you worked under the trump administration, advisor to the trump administration, the connection to trump is what it is all about. you are not woke enough, are you? >> i was appointed by donald

trump. that is the reason for it. you serve for three years by law. this decision by president biden is being challenged because of that. some people see it as a violation of the law. when we joined the board, myself in general mcmasters and a few others in 2019, the obama appointees were on the board and i thought the trump appointees combined with obama appointees strengthened the board, we were acting in a nonpartisan manner, to be frank about it. the board was excellent having appointees from two administrations working for the interests of the one institution. president biden has taken a hand grenade to that and unfortunately.

stuart: the state department is working to evacuate people from afghanistan. we are negotiating with terrorists trying to buy americans out. do you see it that way? >> that certainly is going on, driven by something we watch every single day, when president biden established a date certain 31 august and would not adjust the date, to extend it on behalf of our allies who were asking him to do that to get their citizens out and partners who helped them from the afghan community, same reason for us to extend the date and refused to do it so here we are dealing with the taliban regime and on 9/11, d posed this regime, enabled al qaeda -- the state department

shutting down some of the groups, veterans groups and ngos who chartered airplanes and have contact with the afghans and wants to fly them to destinations where the vetting is going on and they have been denied to land at those locations by our own state department. that makes no sense. these veterans groups and ngos list 5 of thousands people who need to be evacuated. the state department, dod and ngos and veterans groups should come together, establish a central data point for all of these lists. blinken is underestimating the number of american citizens dealing with these people to myself, i can tell you the american citizens are in the hundreds, not less than 100 as he is saying in the afghans in the tens of thousands and the government is turning a blind eye to what these groups are

doing. they should work together. stuart: a four star general, general jack keane, a military advisory board. we appreciate you. >> thanks. 20 years after the 9/11 attack, dan heninger, watch this. >> in the side of the world trade center. >> very black smoke pouring out. stuart: dan heninger just returned to the 9/11 site for the first time since the attack and will join me on this program next.

stuart: ray charles, america the beautiful. you are looking at one world trade center new york city, saturday marks the twentieth anniversary of the 9/11 terror attack. dan heninger and his colleagues at the wall street journal were working just across the street when the towers fell. here are some of their stories. >> it is a little hard to talk about because it was so terrifying. >> the morning of 9/11 i arrived on the bank of the hudson river from new jersey around 8:30 in the morning. >> i got into the office early. >> as anyone does on a beautiful day, fall day in new york i looked up at the sky because it was so blue. when i turned my head down i said to myself that plane is too low. >> i heard a very loud shaking of the building. >> backed up and i saw a gash

in the world trade center. >> one of them had a huge hole in it, for aims and black smoke pouring out. >> standing there, thousands of other people staring up at this burning tower and wondering how they would put that fire out. then the flames died down a little bit and i thought maybe the fire will burn out and it is going to be okay. >> the second plane hit, it was much closer, this was the tower closer to me and much lower, much louder and terrifying. >> then there was a tremendous sound from the other side of the south tower and the guy came running up the street saying another plane hit the south tower. it that moment we knew it was not an accident. >> we were all looking up and suddenly the first tower starts falling.

looked like it fell, we watched it fall and you watch this cloud start to come up and you realize it is coming toward you. >> i made a split-second decision to run over the bridge rather than go back to the office, if i had gone back to the office it would have been right under the tower. i suddenly are heard people screaming and i turned around and watched the tower explode. >> i started looking and crawled under this utility been that was on one of the side streets.

then i started thinking got to get out from under here. are called out from under the van, somebody was in the van, opened the door and five people along with me jumped in. and shut the door but even in those few seconds so much debris got in you couldn't see anything. so much debris got in that we couldn't breathe. we were all choking. we decided we had to get out and we ran into a building that was open, the second tower. the second tower fell, completely -- >> those of us who were there that day will never get that out of our memories and we should not. stuart: nobody can block it out of their memory. dan an anchor joins us. you manage to get your paper out the very next morning, you won a pulitzer prize for it. >> the newspaper did win a pulitzer prize. it was quite remarkable.

a lot of us went to the every side, the upper west side, many made their way to princeton, new jersey where we had headquarters, some of our technicians went to a best buy, bought 100 computers, drove them back to headquarters, wired them up to our production system, i ended up, right under the towers, walked up the west side highway, not quite knowing where to go, got on a landline, cell phones were all dead and discovered we were putting out a newspaper and i ended up with the department of a colleague, dorothy rabinowitz and sat at her computer this afternoon and rose my eyewitness account that was all i had to give. others were all over the country and the city, down there in princeton, made our deadline in the evening and got a newspaper into people's hands

the next day. in retrospect it was something of a miracle. stuart: it was indeed. a remarkable report, thank you for sharing it with us. we appreciate it. see you again soon. the world trade center has been completely rebuilt in the 20 years since the attacks. lydia, you spoke to a developer who rebuilt ground 0. tell us about that. >> reporter: developer larry silverstein told us he wanted to rebuild this area so it would be a thriving mix of business and residential property. >> i hope they think of it the way i think of it. i hope they see this as an opportunity to revise the exquisite nature of what brought this country together. it is a great country, it stands for so much. for the world to see.
