11:00 am
>> we've heard a lot of democrats talk about donald trump and republicans being a threat to knock schism david,
11:01 am
this is the end of democracy in america. >> this is not an administration that cares about democracy. it's actually helped countries like china and russia and iraq really undermine biden's credibility. >> this is shocking and people are beginning to look at it. this has made it clear that if trump does not win, then this kind of mob mentality of the government has won. david: the statue of liberty and the fog has lifted but not fog it was smoke from canadian fires and for whatever the reason, it is a lot cleaner in the air today in new york city. that's a good thing. 11:00 a.m. on the east coast on this friday, june 9. i'm david asmussen in for for
11:02 am
stuart varney. hnasdaq up 72 and s&p up 20. show me the big tech company and they're all in the green except amazon, many has come down a bit. it's had a heck of a run up over the past few days. over the past month to be precise. the 10-year treasury yield is, i believe, up a little bit and 2.6 basis points and now this, former president trump has been indicted on several federal charges. steve hilton joining me now. steve, great to see you. just to spell is out very shortly, we now have a sitting president and a former president who's running again, both of whom have these very serious charges. of course, biden hasn't been indicted, trump hasment i used
11:03 am
to cover latin america. we didn't see this kind of craziness as crazy as things got in latin america for 12 years i was covering, i never saw anything like this. we are -- seems like we're become ago third world country here. >> yeah and look around the world right now and pakistan, india they're doing this. we here in lectures on overnight and today on channels and the media saying don't question the rule of law. if you defend trump here, you're undermining the rule of law and wait and see what the charges are, et cetera. let's wait and see what the charges are. that's a fair point. what else we're waiting for is any kind of charge or indictment against hillary clinton, who mishandled classified information, that is well established. destroyed evidence, nothing there. we're still waiting. we're still waiting for any kind of charge or indictment against
11:04 am
joe biden who clearly, obviously by his own admission mishandled classified information. we get nothing. the facts that we can all see from the minute that donald trump announced for the presidency, the entire establishment and system as it were out to get him. first to try and stop him from being elected in the first place and as we saw detailed in the durham probe trying to falsify charges for an investigation that was totally bogus to undermine his presidency and then the corruption of joe biden, his opponent, and now they're doing it all over again. these are facts and wait and see what the specific charges are. we don't need to wait to understand what's been going on for the last, what is it, eight years since trump tried to solve the problems of this country in a way that the establishment don't like. david: steve, this particular case is apparently going to be
11:05 am
tried down in florida. florida is not new york or washington dc. the jury pool there is not unanimously anti-trump as it is certainly inside the beltway. it'll be less of a rigged deck once it goes to trial. and i talked to alena habba, a attorney for donald trump earlier in the show, she was saying they're going to bring up this unequal application of justice in the courtroom so she's not trying this particular case but apparently that's their strategy. think it'll take and think the jury will do their job and this case will be thrown out of court service delivery models >> i think there's going to be all sorts of challenges and quite right too because it just seems -- any fair minded person can see there's a total difference here in the way that justice is being applied and so, yes, those challenges should be brought. i don't know how it'll go down in the courtroom. we'll have to wait and see, but there's no question. that there needs to be an
11:06 am
argument about why this treatment for this candidate and totally different for the other candidate, joe biden accuses the exact same thing apart from the obstruction. fair enough. but the mishandling of documents, there's no difference there and as i said earlier, hillary clinton. when we see the fairness and the same treatment for everyone, then i think people can say, yeah, we believe in the rule of law really exists in -- david: it's a very dangerous world we're in and a lot of people argue in part of the policies of the biden administration, but the fact is our enemies are sitting back and trying to figure out ways to take advantage of the confusion in our system, what about our allies? they look at this -- they look at that press conference yesterday between the british prime minister and the president of the united states where the president got questions that clearly he had written anxiouses to. either he had -- answers to. either had the questions in advance as before or he quickly switched pages to the particular
11:07 am
subject and was just reading the answers, not ad libbing at all but reading the answers. he had to ad lib when it was a uk reporter but not a u.s. reporter in there. the world looks at what's happen in the united states and what does the world think, particularly the european allies? >> they cannot leave it. they -- believe it. absolutely cannot believe it. remember the stuff from biden. no, america is back. look at what a laughing stock we've now become and it's all down to the same establishment that's going after trump and trying to prevent him from doing what he needs to do to save the american economy and our society and all the things he wants to do now the exact same people and same establishment that put biden in there so they can control him. they knew from the start that he's a feeble, senile old man. totally corrupt and machine politician. doesn't believe in anything. a puppet of his donors and of the establishment for all his career. they've put him in there and now
11:08 am
look at the result. you have someone that clearly is incapable of doing his job. by the way, that's what he's like in public, biden. when on display, imagine private. these leaders like sunak they get to see him up close in a meeting and imagine what biden is like in that situation. it is a complete disaster for the country. david: i'm dating myself but happen to be in europe during the water gate era out of high school, i went to europe for a few months, and it was -- got the sense it was the same back then where europeans are wondering how the hell we land on our feet. we did land on our feet, it took us a few years to do so. we're in for some rough times ahead. there's no doubt about it. steve hilton, great to see you, my friend. thank you very much. appreciate you being here. have a good weekend. check the markets. take a look mean while at this op ed from joe biden and "the wall street journal," never bitumens the american economy. bet against the american
11:09 am
economy. we helped jobs, reduce inflation and give working families breathing room. that was written by joe biden, none other than. jonathan hoenig joining me now. his trillion dollar spending packages and deficits causing inflation and forcing americans to wrack up debt to pay the bills. how is that giving americans breathing room? >> he's messing it up here as usual. look, you'd never want to bet against the u.s. economy. america's always been the most prosperous country, but not because of government spending. actually because it's been the most free. look at the differences between havana, cuba, gdp per capita about 8,000 and miami, florida, gdp per capita about 50,000. it's america's freedom, not government spending that's made us strong and prosperous. david, that government spending has ruined economies and ruined civilizations, rome, imperial century spain, 18th century france or more recently japan. you know, japan was ton top of the world in the 19 l 0s, may --
11:10 am
1980s and mayor government spending starting to exceed debt to gdp by over 100% and now dead money and tock market getting back to where it was 30 years ago. david: dead money, what a great expression. he's not half right but he claims he cut $1.7 billion of the deficit and all the studies show that 100% of the deficit reduction in 2022 came from the covid relief funds ending and being fazed out. that wasn't his doing. he spend trillions more. >> yeah, in fact, david, that's the prescription from joe biden unfortunately and many democrats and even some of the so called right, more government spending, more intervention and the inflation that that is hitting every american now and wages aren't exceeding inflation is specifically because of all that government spending that's unfolded not just under trump but the so-called inflation reduction act and all feeding inflation and making it harder, late rally, for us to keep up the same quality of life.
11:11 am
david: jonathan, look at good news and left side of your screen here, you can see the markets have a mind of their own, businesses continue to produce. thank god for the american business community contraindication for cerumen removal right? quickly. >> david, absolutely. that said, who would you rather bet on, apple, facebook, ands technology companies or the u.s. government in terms of paying back its debt. that's why you're seeing interest rates rise and tech companies soar. david: jonathan hoenig, great way to end. thank you, my friend. lauren, come back in. looking at movers and charge point holdings. lauren: down 12% and ev go down 16%. you know the reason. david: tesla. lauren: tesla partnered with gm and leaving charge point and ev go in the dust. wow, up. paypal up too and oppenheimer on the sidelines till a new ceo is announced and the current ceo said in february he plans to retire at the end of the year and no word on potential replacement and stock down 2%.
11:12 am
david: amd. lauren: ai powered screening tool for macular degeneration if patients aged 50 and older. what it does, is analyzes your eye for less than five minutes and within one minute has as a results. you insert ai into a stock and now fda approval for a device. stock's up almost 5%. david: a lot of negative about ai and very positive things and this being one of them. thank you, lauren. the sneakers michael jordan wore in the famous flu game. he had the flew. they're hitting flu. they're hitting the auction block and could sell for $3 million and you'll see them here in studio. don't want to miss that. student loan payments could begin as soon as august. one company is launching a new program to help make -- help employees make their payments. we'll tell you who's doing it and how much they're shelling out. meanwhile, the big story of the day, former president trump indicted over his classified documents probe. he calls it "election
11:13 am
interference at the highest level" and insists he's totally innocent. bill hemmer and sandra smith here to break it down, next. i've spent centuries evolving with the world. that's the nature of being the economy. observing investors choose assets to balance risk and reward. with one element securing portfolios, time after time. gold. agile and liquid. a proven protector. an ever-evolving enabler of bold decisions. an asset more relevant than ever before. gold. your strategic advantage.
11:14 am
11:15 am
(jennifer) the reason why golo customers have such long term success
11:16 am
is because we focus on real foods in the right balance so you get the results you want. when i tell people how easy it was for me to lose weight on golo, they don't believe me. they don't believe i can eat real food and lose this much weight. the release supplement makes losing weight easy. release sets you up for successful weight loss because it supports your blood sugar levels between meals so you aren't hungry or fatigued. after i started taking release, the weight just started falling off. since starting golo and taking release, i've gone from a size 12 to a 4. before golo, i was hungry all the time and constantly thinking about food. after taking release, that stopped. with release, i didn't feel that hunger that comes with dieting. which made the golo plan really easy to stick to. since starting golo and release, i have dropped seven pant sizes and i've kept it off. golo is real, our customers are real, and our success stories are real. why not give it a try?
11:17 am
here, we now know when secretary of state that he will be going to china. antony blinken is going to go in nine days on june 18th. a lot of questions on whether he would considering everything that's happened in the world. now this, breaking this morning, former vice president mike pence speaking out on the trump indictment. roll tape. >> my only hope is as we learn
11:18 am
about the facts of this indictment next week, that the american people will see in this case that it would meet a high standard necessary to justify the unpress dented federal indictment of -- unprecedented formal indictment of a former president of the united states. i think it'll be terribly divisive for the country and i think it sends a terrible message to the wider world that looks at america as a standard of not only democracy but of justice. david: i'll say, the whole world is looking at america going what the heck is going on. ashley webster a is joining me from palm beach, florida. tram's not going down without a fight. ashley: he never will, david. we saw in the case of alvin bragg indicting the former
11:19 am
president, he got a boost in fundraising and riled up his base and i'll be interested to see if this is the same reaction on the federal charges. there are a handful of trump supporters closer to the resort behind me, we'll have to wait and see. but, yes, donald trump will never back down. take a look at charges that he'll be facing. the indictment itself has not been unsealed but he's looking at one charge under the espionage act and obstruction of justice, destruction of records is also in there, conspiracy and false reporting. now, to mention donald trump taking it in and the best way to handle it is grab your clubs and go out onto the golf course, which is what he's doing. unaffect it had seems but again -- unaffected it seems better to get 18 holes in than sit around. the charges, no matter what they are, do not prevent donald trump from running for the presidency.
11:20 am
even if he was convicted, that would also hold true and can continue to campaign for the president's position. we are expecting him to be in miami tuesday afternoon at the federal courthouse there. we understand secret service and security officials are now trying to figure out all the details anywhere the president goes and certainly under circumstances like this, it'll be a bit of a circus in miami and they're trying to figure out and secure the area now before tuesday afternoon. as we mentioned before, david, if he wins the election and wins the gop primary and goes on and beats joe biden in the general election, all goes away and he'll pardon himself and again, very surreal and i've been here so many times now, i know some of the neighbors by their first name and their dog's names and that's how often we're here. david: of course you do.
11:21 am
ark, thank you very much. you get into the community, don't you? ashley: yes. david: sandra smith and bill hammer. your hands were slapped by a producer because of the rouse you have and we'll get to that later but first, sandra, i have to ask you, espionage, donald trump after the russia hoax. they're saying espionage and after this cloud hanging over joe biden and what he and his family were doing with foreign countries that might even include bribery. they're serious about that charge? >> as far as trump indictment everyone saw it unfolding and not a loath of us were totally shocked it was happening but it was happening and reaction continues to pour in. bill and i just covered this all morning on the fox news channel, america reports. obviously we have still yet so see what's in the indictment. we need to know the details of it. jonathan turley joined us, the professor at the top of the hour saying this needs to be taken seriously and these are very serious charges. we're at the point where we're going to have to lean into next
11:22 am
week and see what happens in miami, but this is the reality of the situation. this close to a presidential election and everybody watching. david: think of what hillary clinton did and taking classified documents through her computer back home and what joe biden did. lord knows how he got those classified documents as senator and stuffed in his socks. >> pence said in indianapolis. david: talk about this application and different levels of justice. >> they cleared mike pence one week ago. kim trusty told us what the charges were last night. they've not seen the indictment. in early april when trump came to new york for the alvin bragg matter, when that -- sorry, when the indictment was revealed, a lot of legal analysts said it was confusing, confounding and weak. i would argue that tuesday better be a pretty tight operation, and i would expect given jack smith's history and
11:23 am
reputation, that it could be. i think only then can we start to really judge whether or not these charges are valid. david: it's friday, let's get to fun stuff. liv golf, pga. ceo of liv golf said it's here to stay. he said "liv is and when continue to be a stand alone and our business model will not change. we've changed history and we're not going anywhere". i want to stick with bill for a second, sandra. forgive me, why did this happen by the way? was money -- everybody suspecting the saudis with all their trillions of dollars, money bye bye bye at the bottom of this -- must be at the bottom. >> my truth to it and probably not the final answer and a lot of things we don't know and we don't know how the format will go and how well the stuff will work but what i believe, both of these organizations, the pga and the sawed i dids, pif, it's the
11:24 am
public invest fund. >> saudi-government backed. >> $600 billion toward the operation and they were suing the pants off each other in court and this litigation would go on for a long time. they were very close to the discovery phase and the saudis would have had to reveal information about the saudi-backed fund and fga revealing -- pga revealing its own funding as well. what i find intriguing is the pga has great events. a lot of golfers make a lot of money. but a purse, if you win an event, an average event on tour, making $1.9 million, that's a lot of money. but out of nowhere, david, they went from $1.9 to $10 million. my question was, where did the money come from and it's possible the pga did not want to open that door. david: thank you for getting to the question. but first to you, what was the fight about? what was the fight about between
11:25 am
you guys? >> awes follow the money and i ask bill, where was the money for these massive purses all of a sudden at pga, where did that come from? he didn't have the answer. never ask a question you don't know the answer to, bill. >> the good news about this. i love golf, i love to play golf. with the saudis putting hundreds of billions of dollars into the sport, it's only good for the sport. it's going to flourish globally. they're going to be golf -- [inaudible]. >> for years hemmer and i had really intention golf conversations and i take it more from i've had to step back from playing as much golf in the past few years and i love watching it. the game changed from a viewviewership perspective so mh when liv came about and no longer like sunday afternoon watch the finals and tiger woods on cbs or whatever it was. you watch it. all the top players and they were all in one spot. it changed and i don't know. david: you lost the home cooking flavor. >> does the merger change
11:26 am
anything or bring back that? >> they'll play the great courses of the world and best players playing all the courses together. i did not watch a single event on the liv tour. i didn't watch a single hole they played over the past two years. >> i did. just to know. it was different. i mean, it's different to watch, it's different as a consumer, and different as a viewer. david: you're the best sports watcher on television bar none. bar none. >> i appreciate that. it's fun. david: you're an athlete. >> hemmer and i decide to take the show on the road. david: bill hemmer, sandra smith. sandra, we'll be watching you at 1:00 p.m.. >> thank you, david. and, lauren, good to see you too. david: other favorite anchor john roberts on fox news. >> thank you for having us. david: gentleman, lady, thank you if being with us. need a pickle ball court last minute? there's an app for that. how to rent courts in your own neighborhood. rent in new york city is so high and some summer interns are

♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ david: take a look at markets and you're seeing all green but the market lost a lot of umph. it was trading very, very much higher earlier in the morning. but now the dow is up 16. the nasdaq has dropped down to plus 32 and quarter per sented gain and at one point up a percent and s&p up a meager 6 points. now this, swimply is a company that lets people rent private pools and the explosion of pickle ball, they've expanded their business model. i'm joined by the ceo. you're now renting out pickle ball courts. where and for how much? >> thanks for having me, david. yes, very exciting on our end and focusing on pools for the last three years and available in over 125 cities. with pickle ball exploding so fast.
11:32 am
we had to jump on that to help with demand to find a court to play with their friends and family. we launched this week with over 300 courts in five cities in the tri-state area, austin, texas, houston, texas, and los angeles. david: now, what is your profit model look like? i mean, how long before this becomes profit because you had to spend a lot to get these courts to begin with. when do you think it'll turn a profit? >> so actually most of the growth comes from the community and it's a sport growing so fast people reached out to us before we thought about it ourselves. what we follow is the pattern where we've kind of listened to our users and clients and even on day one, we had a bunch of courts available. the owners charge what they want, they set their own rules, how many people they allow, and how experienced they need to be. then we take 25% total. david: it's a franchise essentially; right? >> ultimately, yeah. david: yeah. well, one question i have to ask
11:33 am
because i do know people that have become addicted to pickle ball, it caters to the older said if you will and some of the olders get carried away on the floor and can do all things like break an ankle or worse and worry about that being a liability. >> pickle ball and why it's growing so fast is it's actually spread quite virally across all ages and all demographics and one of the bigger reasons we love it so much and like swimming pools, you have children that love pools, motmothers that love pools, senr citizens -- senior citizens and health and pickle ball following the same trend. with pools, safety comes first and i'm the oldest of s i have 11 -- 12, i have 11 younger siblings and first people that used swimply to get out of the house and safety was always a priority and with pools there's a lot that can go wrong. with pickle ball, you know, we've already -- we're taking a
11:34 am
pool level measures. david: you've been there with pools. final question, a lot of people are wondering, would i really want strangers in my pool. is there difficulty finding people to give up their pool to people they don't know what their hygiene is like, et cetera? >> i mean, it's an extremely underutilized asset. that's something that was designed to be social and provide joy for people. there's a lot of -- and pools are designed to clean themselves with the right chemicals so we found our owners are a bigger reason why they do this, the money is awesome but being able to provide joy from a space that otherwise just sits there is why they do it. with pickle ball, it'll be even more intimate and awesome. david: it's a great idea. you're a terrific entrepreneur and no know how to take advantae of something that's spreading quickly. best of luck to you and hope you make a lot of money. >> thank you, david. expect to see you on the court. david: all right. my pickle ball days even are in
11:35 am
the past. thanks appreciate it. now this, new york's air quality was some of the worst in the world this week, believe it or not, all because of the canadian wild fires. lauren, come on n. the smoke actually pushing people out of the city. lauren: looks like there's a camera filter on the photos from the other day. yeah, the air quality here in new york was worse than in new delhi, india, which is pretty bad if you've ever gone there. new yorkers thought it was so bad they wanted to get out of dodge. there's a company called find storage fast and they calculated 2,504% increase in web searches for sell my home fast. that's a bit of overreaction but could be the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back. you're so fed up with everything going on in the city and how it's being run and then this happens and you're like, you know what, that does it. david: stick to the city theme for a moment. in new york city, rents are so high for some summer interns, they don't know what to do but it's not stopping them from taking the job and what are they
11:36 am
doing in order to save money? lauren: commute via air like flying to new york city. david: flying to new york is cheaper than finding space here? lauren: yes, one intern went viral and lives in south carolina with her parents and wake up at 3:00 in the morning, get to the airport and was in new york city -- or newark, new jersey, nearby by 9:00 a.m.. david: wow, lauren: about $010 a week, $1,000 a month versus $35002350020 touchdown catch li- $3500 to live here in a studio apartment. she misses out on the experience but it's saving money and smart. david: rents will come way down. they're still building in new york, even though thousands of people are leaving every week. eventually the prices will come down. lauren: it's risky with everything going on with the airlines, what if you don't make it. but then again, you're an intern and maybe you have leeway. david: the job market is good for people willing to work and even interns can afford to do
11:37 am
that. next one, adidas launching a new program. lauren: if you work with adidas one year and 30 hour as week, they'll give you $100 a month to pay down your student debt and maxes out administer $1200 a year and helpful to workers and extra money in their pocket and could help them retain some staff. they lost the kanye west, yeezy brand. it's beneficial for them. david: assuming the supreme court knocks down the biden loan fertilizer giveness, which -- forgiveness that may or may not happen. lauren: it's for the students that have been paying. some have debt right now. david: a lot of people haven't been paying because they figure the biden plan might stop me from having to pay at all. remember when patrick mahomes intercepted travis kelce at the white house? roll tape. >> waiting for this moment.
