state of michigan, the left is apoplectic, aoc is killing has belittled leaders with exploding devices violates humanitarian law, what does she think of the thousands of hezbollah rockets that enforce the evacuation of 60000 israelis and killed dozens of civilians or the brutal rape and torture of israeli hostages by hamas in gaza she never wins against the real terrorist. then there's bernie sanders. he says america is complicit in israel's indiscriminate bombing which caused massive billion-dollar, he's trying to hold $20 billion of arms sales to israel. i don't understand. why should israel be criticized for killing terrorist, those same terrorists would love to kill us. why is there never any hostagetaking which seems to be the preferred strategy of iran, hamas and hezbollah, the truth is a deep streak of anti-semitism in some sections of the democrat party, it is

ugly and it shows its face when israel takes action to be back the terrorist challenge that runs its very existence. third hour bernie just getting started. ♪ >> tennessee senator bill hagerty joins me now member of the foreign relations committee. mr. satterwhite a democrat so quick to condemn israel for attacking terrorist. >> is inexplicable except what you put in on the mar-a-lago it has to do with michigan and domestic politics, has to do with them appeasing the far radical left that hamas and hezbollah supporters in their own party, it is shocking to me and should be shocking to every american we should stand shoulder to shoulder with our strongest ally in the middle east instead of launching the criticism where i think israel has done a lot to expose what's really happening here, the iranian ambassador to lebanon

which is hezbollah device exploded as well it shows how close iran is working with hezbollah and they go back to full production with president trump he put the maximum pressure campaign in place, they choked iran out they can no longer fund terrorism, and other back in business supporting hamas, hezbollah in the houthis and disrupt the entire middle east, the biden administration is complicit because there allowing to gain hundreds of billions of dollars of revenue that the president would never allow. >> is a stunning development exploding devices, any devices connected to the internet may explode is this a new era of warfare? >> it certainly goes to the fact that there is a huge deterrent effect that's underway right now. and hezbollah and the iranians. if they can do this and take out the hamas leader of thailand i think they're showing them they

can't get to them. i think what they can do to support them in these terrorists are likely cs dead and display 60000 israelis and northern israel right now because over 10000 rockets that hezbollah has launched into israel, you don't hear the biden here is a administration completed about that for democrats completed about that somehow that is acceptable to them but when israel retaliates and demonstrates his own strength the democrats just become the symbol, it shocking to me. >> the fbi revealed that iran tried to pass hot documents from the trump campaign and pass them to the biden here's campaign that tells me iran is scared of a trump when in fact are supporting harris, what do you say? >> it is very obvious to the iranians prefer to see in office, that is kamala harris in this action underscores that fact. president trump stood strong and

he choked iranian leadership to appoint where they could no longer frontier in the region, we were at a point that we were about to see iran come to the table, peace was breaking on the middle east, the historic abraham according but it never been possible were it not for the maximum pressure campaign the president trump put in place we never would've been able to move them and busy from tel aviv to jerusalem and forward for president trump's maximum pressure campaign and that was directed at iran and president trump clearly said iran was at the source of all of this and that's why they're trying to help the harris campaign to try to see her stay in office and they can continue their malcontent. stuart: senator hagerty, think of her being on the show always appreciated. back to the markets and back to the rally, it is there, i keep going back to the nasdaq, that is a steady performance up or hundred points 2.5% as we speak and actually going higher, lou basenese is with me today, have the fed switch from fighting

inflation to promoting job growth? >> absolutely i don't think there's a way to read a faith engine 50 basis point cut it's them ringing the bell, mission accomplished on inflation and now they have to pivot and pivot quickly because jobs in the labor market can turn faster than inflation, the key take away for investors, forget about inflation the market is going to move based upon jobs data, initial jobless claims, and employment. it'll be sensitive to companies laying off employees those of the key macroeconomic factors you want to focus on but we still have to be a stock picker were talking about the major index of all-time highs, they cannot go on to all-time highs forever. stuart: profits are strong, reits are coming down, inflation is moderating, doesn't that set the scene for a strong and continuing rally. >> it does. if we look historically after the first rate cut, as long as we avoid a recession in the next 12 months s&p 500 is up 10%, the key question are we near a

recession, i was a profoundly and ecstatically no, there is no scientific corporate profits are up like imagine by double digits, layoffs or varied amendments, there actually slowing down hiring, you see companies are buying back stock, this excess cash in excess profitability all signs point to a strong economy except for the one major risk which is coming november, who is going to be in the white house come january 2025. that is a risk because the diametrically opposed, opinions and personal and corporate tax rates, energy policy. if you want to talk about inflation is a conversation about energy this is the biggest input cost and everything that we consume. it's to be determined in a volatile world. stuart: if the republicans win the senate, we're safe. >> i don't know for safe but we are safer, you're going to get tax creep somewhere do you know where it'll come or deficit spending, out-of-control spending will find a way to spend more which will have to raise taxes to cover that.

stuart: the two-year yield is coming down, 360 on the two-year, lauren is looking at a very key stock which would be trump media. >> djt, he owned 60% of this company which bears his name and donald trump can start selling the shares tonight because the expiration, the bucket period expires, trump said he is not going to sell the stock is down for the half% down four days, this is a barometer for the polling on trump the new fox news poll has harris with the two-point advantage nationally. stuart: still stellantis. >> are higher because the market is higher if you saw the new car registration in the european union down 29% in august, the full ev non- hybrids, sales plummeted overall not just ... but in france in august ev sales down 69%. >> you're kidding, 69 that the collapse of the 60s.

stuart: the house oversight committee is holding a hearing about the failures of the biden here's administration, alexandria hoff is with us, house republicans promised to reveal solutions for the failures, what solutions have they revealed. >> so far they've been pretty brought the overarching theme so far from the majority and witnesses, someone else needs to take the helm on projects that vice president harris has been tasked to lead, the hearing is titled the legacy of incompetence and we first heard from brendan carr the senior republican on the five-member fcc commission and the broadband

expansion initiative, one that he said was bogged down by progressive revision and misplaced priorities. >> it's been 1039 days since the program was enacted. after all of that time, not one person has been connected to the internet, not one home, not one business, not even one shovel worth of dirt has been turned. >> on that yesterday, nine gop senators wrote a letter to vice president harris expressing concern and disappointment the senators wrote administration lack of focus on truly connecting the unconnected has failed the american people and represents a gross misuse of limited taxpayer dollars. this morning we are hearing from witnesses on failures at the border on national security and the administration pricey electric vehicle rollout that so far turned up eight charging

stations. republic is a progressive red tape has to be removed to put tax dollars to work the way that it should democrats in the hearing saying that the topic of discussion should be on gun violence, not this and according to the democrats of witnesses are here to simply audition for trump cabinet role, it has been contentious. >> alexandra, thank you very much, during kamala harris speech to the hispanic caucus. >> i grew up understanding the children of the community and we should all have a vested interest in ensuring in the achieve the god-given potential. >> guy benson with us this morning, i am not sure exactly what she's saying there, she has a speech habit that she cannot

shake, i would've thought that turns voters off. >> i feel like she's ripping off hilary clinton it takes a village saying the children of the community belong to some sense to all of us in the second concerning when it comes to parental rights in the records received from democrats but i think that is the point she was trying to make she's not terribly well. i guess she decided it was good enough to come back to which is an interesting choice which is when she made repeatedly with weather it's not one or the other gyms. >> is unclear exactly what she means, i don't get the meaning. let me move on the washington post shows harris and trump tied up in savannah, energy workers in pennsylvania say they do not trust harris.

>> they make people swing her way the sentiment ran the surgeon what you believe happened that she becomes the president you can have people. >> here is leads in pennsylvania at this moment, she is a three-point lead, why is the energy the energy issue helping trump more in pennsylvania. >> it might be, it depends on the polls, there was for new polls out just today of the state of pennsylvania, one of them has a tied race, one of them has trump up by a point and two of them have her leading is always a margin of error, it is extremely tight and a lot of it comes down to who is going to show up and participate, donald trump typically says of her performances polls just a little

bit, it seems that in the last two cycles worries but on the ballot democrats have about operation of the ground game this is why you see people chewing the fig nil down to the quick he could depend on who wins a selection specifically in the commonwealth of pennsylvania. stuart: i read a report this morning that the price of natural gas is down in pennsylvania because there is a lot of supply which they cannot get out to other states, the decline in natural gas under gas prices is a factor in pennsylvania now, what is really at stake is the pipeline issue if they can pipe it elsewhere there to be okay and here's will not have a pipeline if you

listen to harris now and the few times that he comes out of substance, she is pretending to be a born-again believer in american energy and border security and tax cuts, you get on the list no taxes on tips, there's no credibility she's built an entire record for decades in california, in the senate and the vice presidency as a hard-core left-winger on these issues and she's hoping she can get away with this political facelift for a couple months in the media don't ask too many questions and cover for her and carry that water, so far that's been a pretty good bet for her, whether it ultimately pays dividends we will find on november. >> of political facelift, i'm going to steal that expression

thank you guy, you're right, his appearance on gutfeld, donald trump adjust the most recent assassination attempt, ashley, and what do you say about this. >> he kept his sense of humor trump told great get filled the new golf was a dangerous game, he was there and asked if he knew the suspected shooter was there any you know not he could've taken him out with a three wood to which trump answered i think so, after two assassination attempts, the former president became more philosophical about the dangers of being such a recognized public figure, listen to this. >> what my going to do, we have a choice, it is interesting i was taken about about over the last period of time since butler. and being president is a very dangerous job and is a consequential president that i'm

shot at and fortunately so far i have been very lucky in somebody greater than all of us. >> during the most recent rally in uniondale new york, trump admitted to the crowd to be more edgy despite beefed-up security, who can blame him. >> well said, thank you. covenant, the here's one after trump for the mass deportation, however, a new poll says a majority of voters support the idea, we have that story for you alexandria ocasio-cortez blaming corporate greed for the housing crisis. >> this country is scaling down a full-blown housing crisis, a crisis for affordable housing is slipping further out of reach and where wall street corporate america's greed is perpetuating our despair. >> what is your solution, more government control of course, i know charles payne is willing to go at that one, charles is coming on the show next.

that is 2.7% now, the s&p a broad-based indicator, up 1.7%, this is a broad-based rally across the board lou basenese is with me, he is a couple of stock picks. >> you buy an index of small caps, the fed is bringing the dinner bell on controlling inflation and simultaneously bringing it to small caps, these do the best after the first interest-rate cut, the universally undervalued david bahnsen was a large caps or 20 times forward earnings small caps are 14 times as even low as ten times, you don't have to be a hero and find individual small-cap that wins the day you can own 2000 small caps in place the trend, make the trend your friend, it's an opportune time that we have periodically coming off the covid loves si wn. tell me about you plus everyone needs a wealth advisor at some

point, when you look at companies that they needed technology advisor and how they can optimize their business by implement the new technology such as cloud computing, data security intercourse a.i. a+ is doing this for 30 plus years it's a small-cap, mid-cap $2.5 billion market cap, growing profitability, since we last talked about it on the show through mexico commits up about 30% it's got momentum on its side, the business fundamentals on inside and out the fed is on their side. stuart: you recommended it plus, it was through mexico, 30% up. >> this is the benefit of getting involved in undervalued small caps you get the double triple digit potential but you have to know the risks, understood, good stuff, thank you very much indeed, the federal reserve cut rates 50 basis points, yes we do know. edward lawrence on economic club in washington, edward what does this mean, half a point cut what is it mean for the economy.

>> we get to that for a second, the reason president joe biden will be speaking at the economic club of washington over the federal reserve chairman is saying they needed for percent point cut for a recalibration, he saying they want to recalibrate from an era when we have higher inflation and lower unemployment to what we have now >> how do you respond to the criticism about that come that a deeper rate cut before the election has some plit motivations? >> yeah so this is my fourth presidential election at the fed, and you know, it is always the same our job is to support the economy on and a half of the american people. and if we get right, this will benefit the american people significantly. so this really concentrates the mind, and you know it is something we all take very, very seriously we don't put up any filters peening you start doing that i don't know where you stop so we just don't do that. >> so critics of the deep rate cut wonder the economy is as good as the fed chairman says.

we have two more meetings to put the cuts in the barrel i think this is totally political yes is slower than it was at the beginning of the year but stock market my goodness that is near to all time highs one that was doing just fine before the cut. >> as now filing in for this event, president will lookly as fed chairman did say that we have a strong jobs market. stu. >> got it lawrence alexandria ocasio-cortez proposed a $30 billion social housing authority. watch this. >> this country is staring down a full blown housing crisis where affordable housing slipping further out of reach nonprofit housing is scarce and we're wall street and corporate americas greed is perpetuating our despair. more than half of american renters are spending more than 30% of their income on rent. more than ever before in u.s. history. we need to put homes back in the

hands of the people and reclaim the home as a basic human right. not a commodity for profit first. [laughter] stuart: i shouldn't laugh like that irresistible charles payne is we -- with me this morning they want corporate government it won't work. >> when she puts out there in an election year it is same thing harris says big evil corporations are ruining our live this is particular program douglas wrote a great piece this morning saying it was cost $600 billion that anything that goes through hud 40% would have to go -- set aside for extra extreme low income and 30% for low income. and then at the end of the day create 1.2 million houses or homes out of 131 million so in other words a 1% increase so think about the states with two

lowest states new york and california what do they have in common big governments lots of regulations. we know that we look at the -- states that are doing it wrong. we know how to make it right. and it is not bigger government it is not more government controls actually less government. less red tape, less taxes you know that's how we get upward mobility so people can earn a home not have something given to them. stuart: it is vote buying. vote buying. >> we've got to -- i'm so afraid this stuff will go through. [laughter] stuart: worrisome prospect feds cut rates by half basic pongt and this morning we have a qhop whopping great rally does this rally have legs? >> i called this over and over again i had so much pushback i get great economists on this show and you know what i love about this action right now is almost a lot of them say one of the reasons that fed couldn't go 50 is because it was spook the markets. i think wall street has a lot of respect for what jay powell did

yesterday and trying to get in front of recession and sees what's going on -- think about this he said jobs reports are fake. all right, he says that all of the immigrants that are coming in are going to be a problem. and he wants to get in front of this he talked about all of the evidence was out there. and the experts chose to ignore it and part looking at things like the stock market the stock market is not main street. not when it comes to stuff like this so i think that -- the market thought about this overnight said you know what, it takes a serious person -- to go off script it takes a serious person to say hey, i'm going to do the right thing even if your initial rearks is a selloff. stuart: good stuff charles thank you very much indeed we'll definitely be watching you. >> into great detail on this later in the show. stuart: the show is making money 2 p.m. eastern here on fox business with a great charles payne. thank you charles. i want to get back to you lew. what do you make of aoc's 30 -- more expensive than that --

600 billion housing -- >> solution is a -- 24% of new home purchases were made by investors but it is really only two to three percent owned by wall street so it looks like it is a misguided steps but as charles and you have pointed out it is attempts to create favor with voters these are not practical solutionings and never has anyone said i'm from the government here to hope you and believe that what they heard it. it is not true. the government cannot intervene that has a meaningful impact on the housing market. >> there's a lot of people who made a lot of money in the stock market i know borrowing against their stock holdings to buy real estate. at a high end stuff -- >> one of the thing i see differently with wealthy people if they don't make that you are money in real estate they transition into real estate because it is a cash flow investment all right so you're seeing people always going to support this market but we need

housing whether it is you're renting or owning it you need more units. >> yes we do lew thank you very much. coming up, donald trump is the first president ever to complete a bitcoin transaction. he did it at a bar in new york city. is this going to become a trend in the restaurant ?ri i'll put that to chef andrew gruel he's on the show shortly. trump believe he has a shot at winning new york, new york state in november. the boston globe was at his rally yesterday based on what she saw does she think trump has a chance? she's next. daughter: hey, dad. dad: hey, sweetheart.

trying to pull us backward. we all remember what they did to tear families aparts and now they have pledged to carry out the largest deportation a mass deportation in american history. imagine what that would look like and what that would be. how is that going to happen? ashley: you know despite harris mocking trump, a new poll to your point stu shows half of all americans including a quarter of democrats support the mass deportation of immigrants living in this country illegally a script news survey shows that 44 or nearly 44% of about spongts respondents 58% of independents and 25% of democrats all say that they strongly or somewhat support a wide scale effort to deport millions of immigrants a third of respondents said that securing the u.s.-mexico border

should be the first priority on immigration 18% said mass deportation should be at the top so it appears that kamala harris is about a little out of step with what the consensus is. stu. stuart: donald trump says he can win deep blue new york state. >> they said what do you mean new york? you can't ever nobody can win republicans can't win i said i can't win new york and we can win new york. with crime at record levels. with terrorists and criminals pouring in. and with inflation eating your hearts out, vote for donald trump. what the hell do you have to lose? [laughter] stuart: karen joins me now you were at the rally do you think trump has a shot at winning? >> crazy things happen all of the time but kamala harris has a

sizable lead in new york but i think benefit for republicans showing up in deep blue enclaves to show there are growing republican constituencies upset with deep blue leadership that is the emphasis on going to long island or before going to bronx. he's showing he has new constituencies look staten island flipped red in the last governor's election and i think that just goes to show there are serious concerns with the economy. with immigration, and with progressive policies and deep blue places. stuart: you go out on long island or north of new york city it is all trump country. you don't see any harris signs bumper stickers at all. >> i haven't seen a single one in new york or new jersey i thought in the beginning it was because she entered the race so late but it's been two months now and i haven't seen a single harris sign in blue new jersey or new york. >> harris has been saying that some people get bored at trump rallies and they leave early. did you see any of that last night?

>> the long island crowd was energized and stunned by young men who were there and if you think about that cohort they're one of the lowest cohort 25% of young men vote and yet everyone under 30 there was a young man there after work groups of friends having a good time and there were so many they couldn't fit even in so a lot of people stuck around and sat outside and watched on the jumbotron i was speaking to folks out there and it was energized. >> thank you for joining us it was a pleasure. thank you very much. it is time we checked out the dow 30. show me please because i'm thinking there was green up there. there is. about -- what's that? can't work out there. i can't do matz. the majority are in the green and dow is up 420 points just

[laughter] california screening well said california governor newsom has a new op-ed he says claim minimum wage increase would be a job killer. newsom says the state actually added 11,000 fast food jobs. let's bring in celebrity chef restaurant owner andrew gruel. andrew, who's right? newsom or the critics? >> well, i mean first of all i think it is a little early to put the book on the shelf and kind of take the victory lap here. this is typical gasp gavin newsom based on questionable

agenda. number one using like nine or ten months really it's only been three months in the data in which the jobs have been, you know, that the bill actually took effect. so you can cut those numbers down to like 5 or 6,000 which in a grand scheme of 750,000 jobs isn't a huge number. but let's assume even those numbers are right i'll tell you right now why they will have gone up. and i'll also tell you what the unintended consequences have been because we're not looking at the whole picture. so number one, the first thing that these multiunit restaurants did when they found out about this bill was they took people who were working overtile so anything over 40 hours, and they cut their hours down to 25 or 30. those people went and got other jobs. okay, so they split positions. so instead of having one person working say 55 or 60 hours, they're having two people work 30 hours or 32 hours making it a full-time job. i know that because starting in at roughly april we got flooded on the full service side with people who were looking for a

second job because they weren't allowed to work overtime anymore this was in our restaurants and we are still getting flooded from fast food workers for another job that's number one. number two, is that with -- with all of this, what we didn't look at was the fact that full service restaurants went down significantly. so you raise the fast food jobs maybe by 6 or 7,000 full service restaurants also closing. well why is that? fribs the very beginning is that this $20 an hour mandate is not just for restaurants with 20 plus locations in the fast food sector. by targeting such a huge sector of the industry, you're artificially increasing with without a mandate but it is a mandate for every single restaurant specifically full service so this is crushed the industry all around but we also have not seen the data play out yet. >> right. i think you can crush the argument right there you have done that andrew. and i've got to bring this up. trump made a payment in bitcoin at a bar in new york.

new york city -- do you think that become a trend in the industry people paying with bitcoin? >> you know, i would love to see it become a trend i'm a huge fan of crypto tried to get it in my restaurants it is difficult and reason i think it is difficult because a lot of the government agencies are trying to forget out well how do we get our piece of the pie right? get the sales tax tracked and got all of the purchases and sales track. so i think there's going to be some slowdown in the progression of that movement because you have poring out how government will merge. which is the scary aspect because ultimately crip crypto is independent chain of currency and love to see it happen. stuart: ain't ready yet. thank you so much for joining us we will see you again soon. thank you very much. here's the trky tricky question how many iphone models has apple released 31, 36, 40 or 46? we have the answer for you.
