simply cannot find in a 900-mile swath of the atlantic ocean so far we're getting no pings, no sound, no anything to try to get to the bottom of what now has become an international mystery, not far we're told from the wreckage of the titanic itself. ashley webster has more on the search, ashley? >> neil, time is a major factor. based on coast guard estimates the missing submersible has somewhere between 75 to 50 hours of oxygen remaining. it i unclear how much is remaining. much depends how hard the crewmembers inside are breathing. a commercial pipe laying ship is now at the scene. we know that. it has two remote control under water vessels capable searching in the extreme depths but bear in mind that the titanic wreckage is at around what

12,500 feet. the submersibles can only get down to 9800. at least they may be able to locate it. the truck sized sub itself operated by oceangate expeditions, a private company that charges 250,000 a ticket to allow tourists to he can more the titanic's wreckage. contact with the crew was lost hour 45 minutes into the its dive on sunday. nothing has been heard since. those believed to be on barred a pakistani businessman and his son, also on board british businessman hamis and a former french navy dive every who explored the titanic many times before. considered an expert. he is believed to be on there, stockton rush, founder and chief executive of oceangate also reportedly on the sun. if the the submersible is on the floor the experts say the best

way to find the it by sonar if they can bang on the hull for example. a search is conducted by air in case the sub indeed has come to the surface but unable to communicate. talking of communications, ocean gate says is it relies on elon musk's starlink to provide internet and communication connection but that is just at the surface. it is unclear whether communication actually played any role in the sub going missing but the clock is ticking, neil, no doubt. neil: thank you, ashley webster with the latest developments. happy to have this next gentleman who knows about finding things in ocean. he was instrumental in the recovery of air france 447 back i think in the summer of tween. that was a flight that was going from brazil on the way to paris, crashed in the atlantic. he was one of the key people who helped find it. doctor, good to have you. that was literally like finding

a needle in a ocean deep haystack back then. it could be a similar situation today but maybe again with better results, tell me what goes on here? >> well back with air france 447 the person that really put that together, it was coexpedition leader was nardelet on the submarine out in the ocean right now. this is a bit different because we know where the last known position was pretty well. there are two choices, one it gets snagged on the bottom. that would be around a shipwreck that is very possible thing because ships are very dangerous, jagged edges, cables, wires sticking out, not the place you want to be with a submarine 6 all the people on the planet phnargelet knew the ship best. if i wanted to explore the titanic he would be the one

person. it was hour 4 minute into the dive. they would not have gotten tote bottom. takes two hours to get to the bottom, little more. that would be mid water. the communication stopped. so everything's is pointing at some sort of catastrophic failure and that is not good. none of that is good news. we'll have to see what plays out. they're looking at the seafloor with sonar, actively looking, send out sound, it bounces back you can pick out things. maybe doing some passive listening to see if anyone is banging on a hull and at the surface looking for anything that might be floating or maybe the sub intact on the surface. one thing i'm assure of, makes me feel better about this whole thing everything that you could possibly bring out there to find the sub is out there now. neil: you know, doctor, we do know they lost contact one hour 45 minutes into the vessel's dive, in other words descent to see the titanic itself. >> yeah. neil: they would still be

presumably above, maybe way above the titanic wreckage. what could they get caught on if that were the casen rout to that? >> neil in that case i think it is purporting to catastrophic failure with the hull. that is the most catastrophic thing with the hull and it collapses that would happen in mid water. you're right, there is really nothing offhand that you would think of could snag the submarine at that depth. it could be other reasons but it is hard to explain why there was no communications. they may have lost power. tough to explain what happened there any other way there was something catastrophic that happened. neil: to your point, doctor, about losing power, if that were the case, it is very cold at that depth, if that is indeed the depth they're at, how long could you survive just in that, assuming you still have oxygen?

>> that's a very good point. usually i think those of us in the business know that out much oxygen you have is maybe not so important as how you survive the cold. you're in a metal container for the most part. the water outside is near freezing. so hypothermia is a real issue at that depth. i don't know what the answer would be. this is a very new kind of sub, five people as opposed to the three most of us are used to. so again, i don't know how long -- we don't know how deep it is or if they came up, started coming up. so many questions you know and lots of rumors. none of the rumors heading in a good direction. again we're going to have to wait to find out what happened. unfortunately no black boxes on the submarine. we just don't bring them. neil: i remember in the case of air france, doctor, correct me if i'm wrong, it was cited sighted and found things to another efforts, it was another

two years before we got the black box off of that plane, right? >> yeah. that's exactly right. what is interesting there was a community of people that say it is impossible to find the plane you will never get the blacks boxes. if you do there won't be any information on them. we did find the plane, we did recover the black boxes. and there was plenty of information on them. the ocean is full of surprises. i'm hoping there is surprise here and it is a good one but only time will tell. neil: i hear you, doctor. thank you for your expertise and what you did back then and signals people should look for now. much dr. david gallo, oceanographer. another development we're watching closely. china getting very close to our neck of the woods with soldiers? it could happen 90 miles off the coast. reports, security facility, training facility could be set up by the chinese on the island of cuba. the devil is in the details. exactly how many soldiers we're

talking about, whether this is another cuban missile crisis 60 plus years forward, edward lawrence with more from washington. edward. >> reporter: "the wall street jo urnal" is reporting that the talks for this base between cuba and china are in the final stages but they have not yet been concluded yet. this would put a chinese military listening post, as well as possible training base as you said within 100 miles off the coast of key west, florida. "wall street journal" is saying the biden administration has reached out to cuba, trying to stall the deal, tapping into fears of giving up cuban sovereignty to the chinese. representative michael waltz says all this stems from a very weak foreign policy from president biden. >> our adversaries seen time and time again under biden they get rewarded for bad actions, from the colonial pipeline hack putin get as summit with biden afterwards to what we're seeing now with blinken beijing. breaking into our bases, spy

balloon, our secretary of state goes over on bended knee. >> reporter: the white house refusing to comment about the potential chinese base. in the meeting with president xi between blink den and xi, secretary of state antony blinken said he talked about the vision president biden had for the u.s.-chinese relationship? >> he believes strongly both the united states and china have an obligation to manage our relationship responsibly and that starts with strengthening lines of communication across our governments, exploring and making clear our positions and intentions in the places where we have very significant differences and also looking at where we might cooperate together when it is in our mutual interest. >> reporter: the secretary of state saying the conversation was candid and constructive. we'll see if the chinese decide to back off of any of their plans. neil: thank you, edward. another alert on the move to

decouple with china, too much economic business bed with them, they with us, it is generating a plan on the part of both sides here to maybe rethink that relationship and in washington both parties. take a look. >> corporate and the industrial level all of the technology, that's where i have real concerns. that it shouldn't be china. >> i -- >> pay a little more? why you think that's important? >> because i don't trust them. trust china. they can just squeeze us when they can. >> we can make the same style of business with our product, with our information and better quality report. neil: all right, when you talk to average folks we try to talk to folks like you and me, what is going on with china, whether we have to start getting a lot tougher many of them are ready to pay the higher prices that will be associated with sanctions and the like on a lot

of chinese products but are we all up to that? lou basenese says maybe we should think about it, public ventures president, chief market strategist. lou, it is one thing to start talking tough with china. it is quite another to start putting terrorisms on their goods or sanction chinese companies all together or they with us. you know where this goes. are we prepared for that? do you think it will ever come to that? >> i think it needs to come to that because its as much a national security issue as an economic security issue. you know i think we've been enduring the worst inflation since the '70s. if we have to pay couple extra points to secure our national security and maybe some economic supply chain security i think you're seeing from the man on the street interviews people are willing to do that. you know, here is an interesting thing, china needs us more than we need them. they're the number one world export economy, exporting $3.6 trillion of goods each year. that is trouble the levels in the last decade or so. they're not the lowest cost producer anymore.

so a recent study shows there are four other countries that can goods and malaysia, mexico, india, vietnam. it makes economic sense as much as political sense. you hit it on the head early on we talk tough. china doesn't respond to tough talk. they respond to tough actions. tariffs, banning some goods. banning exports to china of high-tech technologies from the u.s. unfortunately the biden administration in the latest, they have a vision but no real plan of action. so that is concerning from the political, geopolitical threats. neil: in the meantime we got news out of china today for the second time i believe in a week they cut a key interest rate. so their economy is hiccupping to put it mildly. the notion is as china goes maybe so goes the rest of the world, market for our goods, market for their goods here. does that part worry you, politics notwithstanding?

>> it used to worry me if we rewind about 10 years ago. china was, their economy was supposed to perpetually grow at 7, 8, 9, 10%. we saw the latest revision. citigroup downgrading the gdp growth numbers from 6.1 to 5.5%. china relies on exporting to the rest of the world. they're trying to simulate the economy, housing market in particular, 10 basis points? we laugh at the fed being 25 basis points not being that effective. i don't know that 10 basis points does the strict to restimulate the chinese economy. if you look at markets they're not reacting in kind worrying about a slowdown in china like maybe the u.s., 10 years ago we talked about globalization. we're in an era of deglobalization. it is perfectly appropriate for u.s. stocks to be hitting new 52-week highs while china is still struggling to figure out their gdp growth. neil: as we climb that wall of worry. in fact we leap over it, today

notwithstanding. good points all, thank you very much, lou basenese. meanwhile we'll take you to the campaign, effect of the campaign, what is happening with donald trump on that classified document case. it could come if the trial judge has her way as soon as august 14th. what's happening around august? after this. ♪. new projects means new project managers. you need to hire. i need indeed.

here and there could be a lot of trials and a lot of things to come that we don't know yet? >> yeah, well look i think the former president has been able to use all of the drama here to his ad to raise money, to build up political speculation and all this sort of thing but to your point eventually roots sisters come home, chickens come home to roost however they say it. the timing of a lot of things is going to converge and not work in the former president's behavior. whether it is his potential trial or the debates or the fact that all the legal issues pile up it is a lot of drama. even a lot of folks on the republican side are saying enough with the drama. we have to move forward in america without the drama to get stuff done. i think a lot of it, while he has taken advantage of it to date i think a lot will pile up to work against him. he has to be in the debates. as much as he doesn't think he needs to be there i don't think he will have the personal will there to be out of it.

he knows he should be there, and he will want to defend himself from about a dozen people on that stage pushing back at him which they have every right to should call him to bear not just for legal issues, the lack of being able to get stuff done in the first term, the fact as a party we need to move forward with new faces and new ideas. neil: you've been saying that, long before you opted not to run for president yourself. you were criticizing a lot of those candidates still in the race and others who followed that they are down 40 or 50 point in the polls, you have nothing to lose being aggressive but the only one who seems to, governor, is you know, your former governor and colleague and friend chris christie. asa hutchinson also among those saying former governor ever donald trump that donald trump shouldn't even be running with all the legal baggage. i harken back to chris christie, only one throwing it back in the former president's face. what do you think of that, generally the way the candidates are reacting?

>> yeah. no it's a problem. overall the candidates are not reacting well this is the issue, donald trump is about donald trump. he is about his issues, kind of relitigating the past. that's fine. that is about him. you have all these other candidates on the stage that need to show in unison that he doesn't represent the party, he doesn't represent the future of the party. there should be a unified message there pushing back on him and i don't understand what they think they're gaining by you know, talking about pardoning him or talking about the fact that these charges are only political and not looking at the validity of the charges themselves. you're not going to get, if you're returning for president against donald trump you're not going to get a trump voter. guess what? they're voting for donald trump. so i'm not sure what they think they're getting. they really need to push back to give confidence to the party as a whole that this guy is the past. he is not the future. let, you know all these other candidate have their moment. but as long as they are, i don't think they're trying to apologize for him but they almost come oaf as doing that,

not being firm in unison in their pushback against the drama, the allegations all of this stuff that is backwards for america, not moving forward. neil: you know, governor, the democrats are starting with south carolina as their opening primary, not new hampshire. you will have a situation where the iowa caucuses for that matter the new hampshire primary will be ancillary events for them. what can you do, do you want to do as governor to stop that, what do you think? >> no, we're going first. no, no. the democratnational democratic committee -- neil: do they get to decide. >> and democrats. neil: got it. >> we'll have our democrat primary first. if they don't want to acknowledge our delegates or acknowledge the winner that is the democrat national party's problem but the fact there is a race here, there is a democrat and a republican primary happening here whether joe biden wants to admit it or not. why someone like rfk, jr., who came out of nowhere, that guy

polls at 20, 30%, he has barely gotten in the race against the incumbent president. any democrat looking to run will look at new hampshire come here because we're going first no matter what south carolina says. i don't care what the democrat national committee, whether they acknowledge the delegates or not, nobody cares about that as much as the publicity, the media attention, the fact you can earn it on the ground get people kite excited about your candidacy, democrat or republican. republicans are coming here. any democrat who want to run will come here as well. south carolina is there even going to be a primary? last time they just kind of anointed the incumbent. they didn't hold a primary for president trump. there is chance they don't hold a primary for president biden. it is the dumbest thing you can possibly imagine you about then again it is the democrat national committee. what do you expect. neil: i knew you had strong feelings, governor sununu, great seeing you again.

firearm despite knowing he was addicted to illegal drugs and narcotics. sources say he lied on a federal form when he checked no to using illegal drugs when purchasing a gun. now president biden, neil, said repeatedly he is proud of his son, he loves his son. the president is in california today. no comment from the president on this news however a white house spokesman told us the following, quote, the president and first lady love their son and support him as he continues to rebuild his life. we will have no further comment but house republicans are pouncing on this. they're calling this a sweetheart deal. james comer, the oversight committee chairman over in the house says hunter biden is getting away with a slap on the wrist when growing evidence uncovered by his committee revealed the bidens engaged in a pattern of corruption, influence peddling an possibly bribery. chris crash the attorney for hunter biden telling fox news in a statement, neil, hunter believes it is important to take responsibility for these

landlords as they're checking on perspective renters? they already do credit checks. what's wrong with doing a criminal background check? some progressives on capitol hill says that goes a little too far, too intrusive, to potential criminals or those who have done time it's little unfair. hillary vaughn following all of that on capitol hill. where does this stand, hillary? >> reporter: neil, right now it is being pushed by progressives in the house which republicans have the majority in so it is unlikely to go too far but still progressives are hoping that it does because they think convicts should have a right to keep their rap sheet under wraps leaving landlords in the dark about potential tenant's criminal past. ayanna pressley and rashida tlaib say former incarcerated criminals have a right to privacy. it would prevent consumer reporting agencies gathering info on a perspective tenants criminal background or crimes from seven years ago or longer

would be erased completely from "consumer reports." >> housing is a human right. we wrongfully punished them when they already completed their sentences. our bill would remove unjust barriers to housing and that safe housing is essential. >> reporter: american apartment association, largest landlord association in the country warns their members that landlords can be liable for crimes on their property or even sued by other residents if they allow a criminal to move in. the group telling fox business many mom-and-pop landlords do decide to give tenants a second chance that but that should being their decision. landlords are trusting their property usually word hundreds of thousands of dollars to a complete stranger. the screening process is krush to mitigate risk and make informed decision, as property owners they shoved be able to decide who they rent to. the republicans are questioning

progressive priorities. congressman jim banks telling fox news digital, this bill makes as much sense as defunding the police. why does the left prioritize criminals over law-abiding citizens? neil, this bill likely not to pass the house. certainly republicans are opposed to this idea. neil? neil: thank you for that. hillary vaughn on capitol hill. brian claypool, not only civil rights attorney. i believe he has been a landlord, might still be a landlord himself. brian, good to see you. >> neil, great to be with you again. neil: so are you a landlord? >> yeah, i own several commercial properties in austin, texas, i will tell you, neil, when i read this article i was terrified. are you kidding me? clearly public safety here trumps privacy and human rights to rent an apartment. why do i say that? because i as an apartment building owner, if for example, i allowed somebody who commit ad rape, convicted after rape five years ago rent an apartment in one of my buildings and i don't know about it and that person then goes out and assaults

somebody else on the property that person is going to sue me because they will argue it was reasonably foreseeable that this would happen because of the prior conviction. so if you now eliminate that prior conviction landlords don't have knowledge of that, they can't vet it and it will expose them to legal liability. neil: so let's say you, you know, knew in a background criminal check that one of the people looking to buy or rent one of your properties had in fact served years in jail for a crime but they have done the time, no more crime. what's the harm? the progressives are saying what's the harm? and you say? >> neil, it is about full disclosure. i'm not against having a discussion or a dialogue. i for example, have allowed tenants in my property who had prior duis. at least i'm able to see that on their criminal record, right?

then you can engage in a vetting process. you can have a dialogue with that potential tenant, find out what happened five years ago, and see, let them look at their work history and see if they have been a good citizen, they have not had any other convictions in five years. so i'm not saying eliminate all that. what i'm saying is, the landlord has a right to know about prior criminal history, prior criminal convictions and then they can engage in the process finding out whether they want to rent to that person. it is not about depriving somebody of a human right to rent property. neil: if this were to go through would it put a chill on renting activity in general, on let's say even the corporate real estate market, what do you think? >> well i think what it will do, neil, it will increase the cost for people like myself and other apartment building owners. what i mean by that they will have to buy loads of additional insurance on the property and

that is going to be very costly because, my view would be if the federal government wants to make this law then they should provide insurance, then, right, to the property owners but yeah, this is, it is going to expose property owners to potential liability. look, neil, you have and i have been together a lot. we live in a litigious society and people that run apartments, sometimes they look for reasons to sue. if something goes wrong and they're going to come back and say, hey, you should have known about this and it is your responsibility. i think it will increase the cost of doing business immensely and expose these landlords to liability. they will still rent apartments but it will be like a crapshoot. neil: right. we hope not. it might not come to pass at all but brian, thank you very much, brian claypool on something that some landlords, those way outside of the industry are getting a little leery about. in the mean time have you ever seen on tv courtesies stone the

the spring banking woes. regional banks, smaller banks, medium-sized banks are in the same sort of sticky wicket here but again this could come up when jerome powell testifies before congress. part of that concern about more interest rate hikes it puts banks behind the eight ball. we'll keep an eye on that. also keeping an eye on a tropical storm right now that is barreling towards the caribbean. we have bridget mahoney keeping track of that. >> neil, we're continuing to watch this system. yes, it's tropical storm and we do really expect it to strengthen before it weakens as it makes its way off to the west. the new updates we've seen in the last 24 hours, now the national hurricane center lowering this down. this was previously expected to strengthen into tropical storm or hurricane strength but now staying at that tropical storm strength over the next 24 hours. you notice as we look and march it off to the west what is

happening. we are seeing dry air feed into this system. that dry air is pulling away from some of the strength, some of the intensity of this system. so that is going to allow the winds to stay right around tropical storm strength, around 60 miles per hour. we're seeing what we have call wind sheer, allowing the storm to fall apart, become more ragged. we're tracking tropical storm bret. and invest 93-l, they're watching. likely to develop into a tropical storm which would eventually become tropical storm cindy. bret working off to the west, lesser antilles you may see tropical storm force wind. this is becoming ragged, not likely to strengthen into hurricane strength. neil: knock on wood, whatever,

bridget mahoney following all of that. fox weather meteorologist. i want to pass news on tesla right now. that stock has been on fire. another reason for it moving up a little bit more, hyundai is considering joining the likes of ford, possibly gm, using tesla's charging status as sort of the defacto standard for electric vehicles. that is helping tesla right now. it is up another 3.33%. i'm doing the math backwards because they had a couple of down trading days. since all of this started back around may 23rd, that stock is up in excess of 41%. so tesla on fire. their charging standard has become the defactor industry standard, so it would appear as more and more competitors who have their own charging stations, their own way to charge up their electric vehicle have said, what the heck, let's just do it the way tesla does it. for tesla and it is shareholders that is good news. we'll have more after this.

went down and when. don't know if this is changing the original story. the coast guard estimates this particular sub, it's line of submersibles, everything was going fine. one hour and 40 minutes into the initial dive, the dissent over the wreckage of the titanic and they lost contact. at that time they had 70 to 96 hours of emergency oxygen. no way to quantify but what they are saying is it's probably in the vicinity of 50 hours. there is no communication with the vessel. we are learning about who is on that vessel. details are scant on that regard. the 58-year-old businessman explore from dogwood, and his son are on board as well as the french explorer, who was the

narrator for this event to get people up to speed on titanic history, is also on that. they are not confirming this but stockholm rush is the last of the known passengers on board, the chief executive of ocean gate, the firm behind this dive for which players pony up at $200,000 each to get what the company called a once-in-a-lifetime view of the titanic on the bottom of the ocean floor. they made it two miles from last contact when communications broke off. the titanic itself is another mile down from that. conditions are brutal, very cold. we don't know where this thing is, neither do they. the search is on. that presser is coming up as well. i leave it with the dow down 175 points. c-span: we are going to pick it up where you left off, that
