3:02 pm
>> reporter: the progress they've been able to make and president obama is sending 300 military advisers, not combat troops to help stem the insurgency but some military analysts say that may not be enough. >> i think it's absolutely a step in the right direction. it's not sufficient, though, to truly address the crisis that we're facing in iraq in terms of security crisis. and i don't think it's sufficient to really address the political situation where we have to reach out to the sunnis and attempt to reconcile some of them and also put together a coalition government. 300 advisers i don't think will convince the parties at play here that the united states is really making a commitment and is serious. >> reporter: the president also has left open the door to order, quote, targeted and precise air strikes if baghdad requests such help. but at this point the president says he wants to see if iraqi leaders, including iraqi prime minister nouri al maliki can

this investigation. [ woman ] i've always tried to see things from the best angle i could. it's how i look at life. especially now that i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. i was taking warfarin but wondered, could i focus on something better? my doctor told me about eliquis for three important reasons. one, in a clinical trial eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. and three, unlike warfarin there's no routine blood testing. [ male announcer ] don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding like unusual bruising.
3:14 pm
eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. those three important reasons are why i'm shooting for something better. eliquis.

fireworks in capitol hill at that congressional hearing on how the reis lost thousands or tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of e-mails including
3:17 pm
hearst. lois lerner at the center of the political targeting scandal of carpenter gro conservative groups. he denies there's any cover-up saying a computer crash caused the problem but turns out the hard drive that he says was destroy eed was standard procede but they were not buying his explanation. >> i don't believe you. >> i have a long career. that's the first time anybody has said they do not believe me. >> i don't believe you. >> that's fine. we can have a disagreement. i'm willing to stand on our record and remind it was not buried in 27 pages. most that have 27 pages is exhibits when asked about the custodians we advised you -- >> being forthcoming -- >> which we knew -- >> you know what, congress is investigating -- >> let him answer the question. >> i didn't ask him a question. >> wow. cover-up of illegal targeting or
3:18 pm
innocent computer mistake. tammy bruce. former adviser to hillary clinton for president. tammy, do you believe him? >> no, it concerns me that this man could have a long career and to one has confronted him about anything this. is part of the problem and the republicans share some of the blame here but really it was shocking that performance and it was the -- this is certainly nonpartisan. every american should be concerned with a kind of smug entitled arrogance within the concept here of what we've got houses already referred, lois lerner for criminal charges to the doj. she's taken the fifth amendment which is her right but seems to be hey lot of things going on that the commissioner seems to not care about but the attitude i think is based in the fact that no one has been held accountable for anything throughout all the agencies, many of which have these kinds of problems, i mean an apology is just a decent thing to do for
3:19 pm
the american people at this point. >> richard, smug arrogance or simple, you know, look, we're sorry, two years of this stuff and happens to be around the time of the 2010 election when they are talking about tea parties but woo don't know anything bit. the dog ate it. >> basics, eric. remember 501c4 status. the statute says those organizations have to be exclusively for social welfare. the reis needs to police that and they did looking at groups that had tea party or patriot in their name or progressive and occupy in their name and they did that too. and it's a rip-off to the u.s. taxpayer if 501(c)4 status is used to shield them. go back and look at every segment fox news has done on karl rove's group and tell me how much of that is about social welfare versus political. we know exactly what's going on here. look, those documents were lost in 2011. i guarantee you there weren't
3:20 pm
five people on capitol hill who had ever heard the name lois lerner as of the time they were lost which incidentally she pleaded with her i.t. department to get them back. hardly looks like a cover-up but much ado about nothing when we have big problem. >> much ado about nothing but the potential of hundreds of thousands of e-mails one of them that was recovered. she wrote "tea party matter very dangerous" so i mean, tammy, as richard says, is this much ado about nothing. >> what you heard is the political argument and what the real argument is the response to the nature of what's going on, people get in trouble for not what they did sometimes but covering it up and we're still reliant on what they say is missing. no external audit. no internal even real framework of investigation. there's -- there should be an external investigation. there should be an i.t. forensic investigation so it's change that it's only the people who
3:21 pm
congress is investigating whose e-mails were lost in this framework. by 2011 i have to say they had a sense that other people had found out what was going on. so -- especially in the context of how this administration and how the federal government's been operating. the american people now unfortunately don't believe anything they're hearing and both sides have the responsibility to try to reassure us that this is being taken seriously and certainly the commissioner did not do that. and, frankly, the republicans are a little late to start getting a little excited about what's been going on. >> so what do you think is going to happen? >> i mean obviously right now the american people have had enough. the poll numbers for mr. obama are going down which we've got an election year. it may mean that we'll get some responses but i think -- >> eric -- >> i think they're in a little bit of trouble. >> richard, last word. >> i need to get a word in here. listen, again, the people pro-pounding this whole scandal are basically saying, we want the reis to look the other way
3:22 pm
when people are misusing the tax code. do republicans want that? heck no. democrats certainly don't so this whole notion the underpinnings are a fiction. we don't want the reis to do anything other than police what is or is not a proper use of the tax code and as far as these records are concerned it's an odd thing for somebody to be pleading to get them retrieved when supposedly the whole idea was to lose them. the reis has delivered 700 had you thousand documents. 67,000 with lois lerner's name on them already and can get the hard drive to somephrenic person to, you know, look over and see if there's any -- >> apparently the hard drive has been destroyed. >> or the other people she wrote to. >> this will continue and another hearing this week. maybe they destroyed it. he said they did that as part of the standard procedure when you have something -- >> they should knock themselves out. >> thanks so much. arthel. >> eric, how about this, a blast from the past.

when checkered cabs were all over new york, i love that, you may remember seeing these guys in a few old movies but this weekend those iconic cars are hitting the streets of the big apple one more time. laura ingalls streaming live in brooklyn with the checkered car convention. hey, laura. >> reporter: hi, arthel. you know, it is a very special time for these checkered car enthusiasts. not only are all the beauties at the same place at the same time. first time in their history that this show is in new york city and really when you think about it, what better place to showcase the cars made famous in the movies and in tv shows that were filmed in the big apple. checkered motors corporation produced taxis, cars and limousines from 1922 to 1982 in kalamazoo, michigan, but most people really know checkered cars by the iconic checkered taxicab and while many remember the cars as a new york city vintage staple they also roamed the streets in chicago, pittsburgh and minneapolis back in the day.
3:24 pm
>> while most cabs throughout the country were fords, they had a special unique and had the checkerboards on them. they were just different. >> the last time an authentic checkered taxi rapg up a fare was in 1999 which is when the city stopped allowing the checkers to operate because they started failing required inspections. and you know, one of the most famous cars here at the show is this checkered taxi. you know, the taxi that was used in the tv show "taxi." can't you just see danny devito? they are beloved and celebrated for many reasons. >> when somebody needed to go somewhere, it was a good, solid, reliable, safe checker that got them there and the cars themselves are just big and bubbly and friendly. i don't think i've been

anywashington redskins people didn't like to be in a checker and see them and talk about them. >> reporter: it has been a lot of fun to check out these cars and they did come from all over the u.s. to be here in brooklyn for this show, michigan, of course, where they came from, florida, kentucky, ohio, pennsylvania and, of course, the enthusiasts have been following. arthel, back to you. >> i wish they'd bring them back to new york city myself. all right, laura, thanks a lot. they were great. just like stretch out, you know. in those seat. >> i'm not cramped in the back of there. i could go on. i'm not going to. >> maybe they'll come back. coming up here on the fox news channel an icon for millions, well, these now facing some very serious criminal charges. what hope solo allegedly did to land herself behind bars. people are dusting off their grills and getting ready for barbecuing next. why the prices at the grocery store, you may get sticker

several thousand heavily harmed shiite fighters paraded through sadr city in southern baghdad. the shiite forces are supporters of muqtada al sadr who says advisers sent there would be attacked. fox is being told those military advisers have not arrived in baghdad. meantime, the al qaeda linked isis militants have taken control of two key border crossings along the iraq/syria border as iraqi forces continue to battle for control of a major oil refinery in the northern part of the country. it continues to be a key battleground. because if isis fighters took over it would continue to fuel their fight. all this as the calls for iraqi prime minister nuri al maliki to resign continue to grow louder. u.s. forces meanwhile, remain in the persian gulf awaiting orders
3:32 pm
from president obama about whether to start gearing up for military air strikes against isis militants. arthel. >> all right. john huddy reporting from jimmy johnson, thank you. u.s. women's soccer star and olympic gold medalist has landed this jail after police say she assaulted her sister and 17-year-old nephew. officers were responding to a report of a woman who was hitting people and refusing to stop and leave. police say they found solo intoxicated and upset and they say the victims are injured. solo is now facing four counts of fourth degree domestic violence, assault. her court date set for monday. a major milestone for one of the victims of the boston marathon bombings. jeff bauman photographed in this image is now back at work. returning to a costco store in new hampshire 14 months after the attack. he described one of the bombing suspects to police following the attack.

he also lost both his legs above the knee. starbucks lately? one of many chains in which the prices are going up. yep, price increase. the coffee giants says hiking some of the lattes and big mochas and all that other fancy stuff by as much as 20 cents and at the same time prices for your favorite packaged coffee at the store is going up too, as much as a dollar for some. what is going on? founder of helpsavemydollars.com is here. >> it's true. when you look at beef price, i mean a lot is due to bad weather. there was a drought two years ago that is still being felt today that caused the cattle supply to be at its lowest level since the 1900s when the population was much lower. you look at coffee prices, the commodity coffee has been up 46% over the past year. that's largely due to a drought in brazil which is the world's
3:34 pm
largest coffee producer then look at wheat prices and dryness in the southern plains, it has caused this year's wheat harvest to be 20% smaller and not to mention tensions in ukraine and ukraine, is, of course, the fifth largest wheat exporter. >> i was going to say tensions in ukraine, what does tha does o with pmy wonder bread. >> wheat, that pushes up the prices for everyone. >> a full screen. we have, you know, summer here, the hot dogs on the grill. guess what, it's going to cost you 5.6% more for hot dogs, ground beef, hamburgers going up over 10% and steak, about 10%. i mean what can we do or what can be done at all to try to mitigate any of these prices? buy in bulk? >> you can buy in bulk. ultimately it's a factor of where the economy is right now. inflation is a huge issue right now. we saw the consumer price index released a few days ago, it rose 0.4% but up 2.1% over the past year. now, the reason that's
3:35 pm
important. >> slow that down, it was up 0.4%. >> in may. >> and then 2.1% over the past year. now, the federal reserve's inflation target is 2% and the fed actually doesn't even use the cpi when it's doing its calculations but use the personal consumption expenditure price index that's a slightly different calculation. that was up 1.6% over the past year. but regardless, both gauges are pointing to higher inflation and what we're seeing with the fed right now is they're starting to scale back that bond stimulus which helped spur economic growth and cause inflation so if inflation continues, the fed is going to have to start thinking about raising short-term interest rates sooner than expected that will increase borrowing cost for banks and subsequently consumers with the hopes of chipping away at inflation. >> man, oh, man. >> the fed is making sure the economy is not too cool, not too hot. >> i thought janet yellen had to deal with just the stock market, not with scrambled eggs. >> all connected. >> you said in may it was 0.4%.
3:36 pm
last year, 2 point something percent. that means it's gone up like ten times fast. >> it's true. can you even now feel those effects at the grocery store, of course, you know, we saw coffee prices really mitt their highs in february. so it takes a few months tore that to trickle down to the stores but saw jam, smucker's announce a 9% increase in prices and make folgers and dunkin' donuts in the store. >> do wages go up? if they raise my giambi 9% are they giving me 9% more here? >> that's the problem. stagnant wages but as the unemployment rate continues to fall, you know, consumers have more money to spend because people have more jobs and that will increase intlags. >> how come it never goes down? >> it has but we're at an economic recovery and we're starting to see things pick up h things pick up we see prices rise and demand and so sort of connected. >> okay, scott gamm, thank you very much.
3:37 pm
website is helpsavemydollars.com. is what we all need. arthel. >> scott, eric, thank you. the obama administration announcing some tough new policies to deal with the thousands of illegal immigrants, many children flowing across our southern border. is enough being done to deal with the crisis? a fair and balanced look. >> if you're not controlling the borders and keep seeing more children and teenagers coming across the border illegally, and you're not going to secure the borders, what makes us think that it's only going to be 120 days? it's just going to get worse. my dad has atrial fibrillation, or afib. he has the most common kind... ...it's not caused by a heart valve problem. dad, it says your afib puts you at 5 times greater risk of a stroke. that's why i take my warfarin every day. but it looks like maybe we should ask your doctor about pradaxa. in a clinical trial, pradaxa® (dabigatran exilate mesylate)... ...was proven superior to warfarin at reducing the risk of stroke. and unlike warfarin, with no regular blood tests
3:38 pm

anything. so congress' appetite for immigration reform i think right now is zero. i mean, there are plenty of members of congress with an appetite but nothing is happening. i understand the president is trying to do something. but the real problem, i think, i mean you look at these children's faces. you know, this is, you know, any one of us who is a mother, a parent, a sister, a brother, a human being, democrat or republican, should be saying to ourself, let's get this problem out of the election. let's try to take it out of politics. let's try to get these people to sit down. we've got to send the message loud and clear to mothers in mexico that the answer is not to send your children here. that it's not going to be better for them. find ways to reunite these kids with their families and stop playing games with people's lives. >> well, you know that the u.s. is giving 250 million to central american governments, in fact, we're going to pop up a graphic that shows the breakdown while you and i will talk about the general contribution there, we're talking about guatemala,
3:45 pm
honduras, el salvador and the intent for those governments to use the money towards calming their interior, but, susan, can we trust that they'll use the money for which it's intended? >> i don't know and even if they do, art, i'm not saying we should be giving more. look at honduras, 18 million on policing gangs. you look at el salvador, a lot of family there are terrified every time their family goes down there, parts are safe, parts of it aren't. these countries have huge -- not only do they have gang problems and violence problem, but some these countries also have no economic opportunity. so, you know, i mean i'm all for giving them money and trying to help them and i don't want to suggest they're not using the money but obviously you look at the conditions in these countries and no mother sends her kid alone here if there's a chance for them there. i mean, i firmly believe that. these children are not coming to our borders because things are
3:46 pm
good at home but they'll be just a little bit better here. they're coming because they're really quite bad at home and that's the underlying problem. >> susan, you always provide interesting perspective and thoughtful comments and that is what i really most appreciate about you that you think about it, you're not biased one way or the other and really that's what it takes to try to get some sort of solutions in our great country. >> you hope. >> and this affects us big time. >> all right. >> thanks, art. don't forget you can read susan estrich's syndicated column every interest friday and wednesday in newspapers. exhale. take it outside, eric. >> all right, arthel. you know what today is? it's the first official day of summer. that means you have to protect yourself with sunscreen. we'll talk about it with "consumer reports." we'll separate the best from the rest and tell you how you can protect yourself through july and august all right through the beach days. we'll be right back.
