10:01 am
stuart: let's go. callum harris calvin harris, etc. . sunny day in new york city. i will take the sun and heat to. it is summer. it is 10:00 eastern. to your money please. red ink but not much of a, dow is off 50 after hitting a record high yesterday, nasdaq down 50. the 10 year treasury yield has been heading up this morning, still heading up slightly, 5 basis points at 386. the price of oil $76 a barrel. bitcoin 62, $63,000 and change, 62-numtwo. we have the latest numbers. lauren: consumer confidence.
10:02 am
lauren: better-than-expected, 103.3, stuart: any market impacts? impact? lauren: the dow is down 48 before the report down 60. stuart: not much impact. thanks. now this. meta drilling way down to tap into the geothermal power under the earth's surface and you thought they were just a social media company. it has more money to make groundbreaking investments in green energy partnering with sage geo systems, their engineers will drill down thousands of feet to get to the superhot rocks below the surface, they pump and water which gets superhot and that drives turbines that make green electricity. meta needed to power its data centers. they require vast amounts of juice. with this geothermal energy the
10:03 am
electricity it produces is emissions free, developing this cost billions, storing it costs millions more. who has the money for this? big tech. there are many people who object to the size and power of america's technology giants. they want to break them up. call them monopolies. that's politics. the money they make allows them to spend big on very important technologies. it allows them to take a dominant position in industries outside their core business. the left hates that. the left think that stifling progress. it is not. it is funding it. it is big tech that takes the risks, not the taxpayer. a future harris administration will be pushed to the left by the socialist wing of the party a, senators warren and sanders leading the charge going to them big as bad. no time protect billionaires. they should remember when america wants progress in green energy is big tech which has the money and will to develop it. surely they can get behind that. second hour of varney just
10:04 am
getting started. let's bring in scott shell is a but add, what do they hate big tech so much. >> big tech does what they wanted to do when it goes against the narrative. should be very careful how they handle big tech. i've been thinking about this. it's a good idea. they should absolutely do it. here's my question to you. 24 hours, what facebook was doing when it comes to hunter
10:05 am
biden's laptop, what happens to the stock price at facebook that section 230 is -- be very careful. neil: i am simply saying if you develop these new technologies especially green energy technologies you need a ton of money to do it and the only people who have a big tech so stop attacking them, stop trying to break them up. don't stop them from getting into new industries, new technologies only they can develop properly. >> reporter: if they lose a lot of money, number 2, what they are talking about already, elon musk and all the different inks he has going on. neil: i want to talk markets. is it government spending that
10:06 am
kept us out of a recession and if so, what happens if we cut government spending? >> a large part of the reason we haven't had two negative quarters of growth, what a recession looks like. we had one in 2022 but a lot of color recession but i will say this, 23%, almost 25% gdp is government spending. if you slow government spending you've got to slow gdp down. we have been spending enough, it is called money supply. if it starts to shrink which it started to last year, if it goes down by 2% and shrinks by 2%, every time it happens was a recession or depression. it was the last time we started
10:07 am
to expand because funding more money but the government gets involved in interest rates so something to watch. neil: see you again soon. back to the stock market. i see supermicro way down. lauren: ai servermaker, hindenburg research, evidence of accounting manipulation, sanctions and self-dealing. this is a company that is down 24% but double in 2024 and tripled in 2023. they get this report from hindenburg research. neil: -- stuart: watch out of hindenburg comes after you. i start with amazon. travis kelsey. lauren: nfl players, travis,

10:09 am
same specifications. that is what it should be. they are trying to change, she doesn't want to debate. not a good debater, not a smart person. he doesn't want to debate. stuart: as usual he is smiling. think harris is trying to get out of the debate? >> of course she is. these were the rules there campaign set. the harris campaign is a continuation of the biden campaign. these are the rules they set because they discovered it backfired on them because biden couldn't fill 90 seconds with coherent thoughts so it hurt him in the campaign and they are worried kamala harris can fill 90 seconds except she didn't have the excuse of advanced age. stuart: if they debate do you think trump wins? >> depends on how he debates.
10:10 am
having the microphone worked great for him. the second d bait, and it alienated a lot of people. the harris campaign is trying to get out of it. looking for a pretext. they want to campaign on biden's and joy and if you have a debate, you have to get asked a question like you were against the wall but you were for it, you were for the green new deal but now you are against it. you were for medicare for all but now you are against it, you were for decriminalizing illegal border crossings, now you are against it. you were against fracking, now you are for it. explain why. she hasn't flip-flopped herself. it's all anonymous staffers. than to explain it. stuart: why according to ask
10:11 am
eos has she agreed to sit down formal interview this week? >> has she announced? stressing out who to choose. an interview for a presidential candidate with a news organization should be a routine that that happens multiple times, this should not be a high-stakes event but by making this such a big deal, have an interview by the end of the month, leaking office about how we are choosing and turns it into a high wire act between across the grand canyon, something the candidate does and she messes it up it becomes a catastrophe for the campaign. they should be doing interviews, doing debates. supposed to bring us back to normal. that's the whole theme. be a normal candidate. answer questions. stuart: print media interview
10:12 am
with a transcript released friday night at midnight. right before the labor day weekend. that would work, wouldn't it? >> they would love that. that's a good strategy for the harris campaign. stuart: see you again soon. many landlords report incentives to renters. why are they doing is this is what kind of incentives? lauren: times have changed. it used to be the incentive for paying your rent is you get to stay in your house, not anymore. now you pay your rent and you can get one% or 2% cashback, gift card, a discount on your rent or your rent increase. the wall street journal did some in-depth reporting and show landlord companies like steak and piñata are giving 2 million renters across the country rewards and perks for paying on time and also removing their leases and sometimes accepting a higher rent because of those giveaways.
10:13 am
stuart: nothing wrong with that. lauren: i thought you would be so against this. stuart: you want to bring in the money. lauren: i'm going to raise your rent 7% but because i gave you 1% cashback you should be okay. stuart: it does soften the blow. donald trump said the biden harris administration is leaving the us into a third world war. watch this. >> america's future is under threat like never before. i don't think we've ever been closer to world war iii than we are right now. stuart: how close are we to world war iii? former state department official christian whiten will comment on that. israel warned that iran's aggression reached an all-time high, trey yingst reports from tel aviv after this.

gaza where israeli special forces rescued a hostage in a daring operation. an elite unit of commandos entered a tunnel inside 7 gaza, they found a 52-year-old better when man taken from southern israel on october 7th. his family was seen running through a hospital in the city to greet him, he has 11 children, the rescue comes as lower-level negotiating teams are gathered in cairo to work toward a cease-fire agreement between israel and hamas. the conversations are reportedly moving forward with minor details such as the name of palestinian prisoners that would be exchanged for israeli hostages but hamas rejected discussion saying the terms of changed from what the group agreed upon last month with work grinding on accusations for palestinians in central gaza yesterday, these orders include the evacuation of the hospital that houses wounded and vulnerable gazans. the warren gaza admits the backdrop of ongoing tension on

his relapse northern border, the israelis released new video of strikes over the weekend that targeted hezbollah. the exchange of fire is on fire with fresh israeli airstrike on fire on monday night with rocket and drone alerts in northern israel. officials say there are parallel to vladek efforts on going to ever larger crisis in israel and hezbollah. stuart: listen to what trump said about the biden/harris administration leading the us into world war iii. >> america's future is under threat like never before right at this moment, in my opinion, our country is at the most dangerous level we have ever been. i hate to say this but we have a president who went on vacation a week ago and he came back and went on vacation again. we have people that are fighting all over the place and threatening our country as we speak. i don't think we've ever been closer to world war iii than we
10:21 am
are right now. it is a terrible thing. stuart: christian whiten, former state department official, joined me now. are we really as close to world war iii as we have ever been? >> no. that is trump hyperbole going on. he has a good point, there's a reason for caution, not alarm. most people think the cuban missile crisis is the closest we've been to world war iii and that holds true, there was a major nato exercise in the reagan administration. it was prelude to the invasion. and sense of emotion. the middle east on fire and the pacific is called relatively with the low intensity conflict with treaty ally the philippines.
10:22 am
stuart: biden is trying to put a lid on the war in the middle east and ukraine. that would be the flash point. all hell breaks loose in ukraine and china goes after taiwan. is that flash point possibility? >> the highest possibility, if you are thinking of invading taiwan, whether it is 5, 10, 15 years from now. we have a president who is in command of nothing. foreign policy is run by the secretary of state, national security advisor and the cia director, none of them doing particularly well. is he a killer? it seems there aren't any signs of imminent invasion in the pacific. there is reason for caution but you are not alone.
10:23 am
stuart: president biden began his second straight week of vacation despite saying he would finish his presidency strong. listen to what john kirby said when asked who is running the country? >> time and again the question i'm hearing from the general public which i put to you here, who is running the country? >> president joe biden. >> is here ceremonial figure? >> you know better than that. he talked to the prime minister modi today, he has leaders in the region and in europe, president zelenskyy, the president is on vacation but you can never unplug from a job like that, nor does he. stuart: the president is not sharp. he can't keep his train of thought to gather. is he really the guy who is running this country really?
10:24 am
>> he -- that' s a problem with being nsc spokesman, you have to lie for the good of the country. president biden is in command of nothing, it hasn't been the white start -- the white house staff. if you have a strong secretary of defense who is integrated into a foreign policy team, the people running the country, those three men i mentioned earlier, particularly secretary of state blinken and the national security advisor who are longtime biden staffers, they are the ones calling the shots. that's not good. sometimes to talk to the leader of america he needs to talk to the leader of america and that's not an option right now. stuart: see you again soon. trump laid out his plans for the military. if he wins in november. what is trump saying? ashley: he's talking about safe. he says the us is leading with all the major metrics in space thanks to his creation of the
10:25 am
space for sandy wants to add a space national guard. >> one of my proudest achievements in my first term was to create space force, the first new branch of the armed forces in 7 years. it's a big deal. now that space force is up and running i agree with your leadership to want this very badly but i agree the time has come to create a space national guard as the primary combat reserve of the us space force which i will sign historic legislation creating a space national guard. and do that. space force has been important. stuart: ashley: he pledged to build an antimissile system similar to israel's iron dome air defense system which is capable of intercepting short-range rockets. space national guard. stuart: reminds me of star wars in the early 1980s from ronald

94,000 australian dollars equal to 60,000 american dollars so if you are not working and want to ignore your boss's calls, text or e-mails, the law is on your side. australia's right to disconnect law doesn't prohibit employers from contacting workers outside hours but it protects workers who refuse to respond to their boss. if the reason they reach out is deemed unnecessary and if that's the case workers can't be punished. according to reuters unions and rights groups are saying this new law for australian workers is overdue. >> it's important we have rules like this. we spend so much of our time connected to our phones and emails all day and it really is hard to switch off as it is. i'm all for it. >> reporter: employers associations say the legislation is flawed, was rushed into law and can harm work productivity, australia is not alone. similar laws are in place in
