log on to our facebook to see the solutions. use the hash tag keep talking. good morning. i'm elisabeth hasselbeck. it is monday, july 28. a fox news alert, a day at the beach turns deadly. details on a deadly storm straight ahead. >> the federal government dumping illegal kids across the country but they're not telling the governors about it and one governor got the word by logging on to a government website. how convenient. >> remember this video? daredevils jumping off the freedom tower. wait until you hear how their lawyer is going the extra mile, literally, to help their case. are you intrigued? i hope so. that was the whole intention. mornings are better with friends. >> it's time for "fox &

friends." >> i don't know about you, but i'm all fox fanned out. >> what do you mean? >> that time at the stadium shaking hands and kissing babies, it was wonderful but i'm exhausted from the weekend. >> the games were wild too. we had a good old time. what a fun weekend. my kids had a blast. they had a blast there with the cousins. >> the kids got a chance to hang out. what we're referring to is saturday and sunday the yankees hosted fox fans weekend with us. we had a chance to get the finest fox fans that we could muster up together to watch the yankees lose two in a row after an extremely hot streak since the all-star break. >> look how much fun it was. this red sox fan actually had fun at a yankees game. that was a blast for us. >> we've got pictures. we'll share them at the bottom of the hour but in the meantime we turn to heather nauert. >> good morning.

baseball and heat, and it is a fox news alert. a day at the beach ending in panic when a rare thunderstorm hits southern california, lightning striking venice beach killing a 20-year-old man and injuring more than a dozen other people. at least two victims were in the water during this lightning strike. witnesses recording as life guards pull one of the victims to shore. beach goers say the storm took them completely by surprise. >> all of a sudden there was a big flash of light, a boom and i felt like someone punched me in the back of the head. >> it sounded like a sonic boom. it literally shook the buildings. >> can you imagine that? that same storm hitting catalina island where a golfer was struck by lightning, expected to be okay. two americans helping to combat the outbreak of ebola in liberia have been infectd with that deadly disease. a volunteer from north carolina is the second

american to come down with that virus. she works at the same hospital where dr. kent brantley from texas also contracted the highly contagious disease. that ebola outbreak has spread to three african countries killing more than 670 people, roughly 62 pk of those infected with that disease. >> while you were sleeping the u.n. calling for an immediate and unconditional cease-fire between gaza and israel. the security council president calling for israel and hamas to accept this peace deal which doesn't mention israel's right to defend itself or asking hamas to stop firing rockets. this follows a weekend of brief lulls in fighting as violence raged on. more than 1,000 people have been killed in the 20-day war so far. do you remember this when three daredevils jumped off the building in manhattan last fall?

that's video of their stupid stunt. now their lawyer is proving he will go the extra mile for his clients literally. the attorney going skydiving with them for case research. he's making a 14,000 foot jump in new jersey saying he hopes it will help their case. the three men are facing several charges including felony dollary. those are your headlines. >> thank you very much. even though today is the first day of the work week, people on capitol hill are already looking towards thursday because that is when their august vacation begins, the summer break officially. you think to yourself, wait a minute, is this really time for them to go on vacation? after all, we've got an invasion on our southern border while both sides have talked about doing something about it, nobody has. >> a lot blame to go around so they say. actually one congressman out of louisiana says i'm

not going anywhere until we fix the problem and to double down on the fact this is the president's fault. >> the president has been awol from the beginning. the president has a lot of time on his schedule to secure fund-raisers but no time to secure the border. he has not taken his job seriously in this regard. the house is willing to lead. the president wants to sit back and play politics. he's flying around the country doing fund-raisers, he doesn't have time to sit down with congress. >> they have a highway trust fund. i don't know if anyone is going to extend it. we would like to find out about the export-import bank. there is money for the border. we'll see where it goes from there. speaking of immigration, let's talk about the illegal immigrants, many of which are children, that have come across our borders. where have they gone? where will they go? turns out according to one governor, they have come to

his state. he had no idea about it. >> we're talking about bill haslem, the republican governor of the great state of tennessee. they were at a governors meeting a couple of months ago and he specifically asked the secretary of health and human services sylvia burwell, if you're going to put any of these illegals in our state, let us know, will you? then he logs on to the h.h.s. website and discovers 760 of the kids have been released somewhere in tennessee, 30,000 all across the country. as it turns out, he didn't get a heads up even though he apparently was promised one. >> he actually went out to slam the president and those that he met with, with the warning that he requested unfulfilled saying this, quote, not only was our state not informed prior to any of the children being brought here, i still have not been contacted, have no information about these individuals or their sponsors other than what was posted on the h.h.s. website and subsequently reported by media.

some of the questions he's looking for answers to are how did the federal government locate these sponsors? what medical screenings were done for the juveniles that have crossed here and been poured into our state? what is the immigration state of the actual sponsors? how long are they going to remain in tennessee? all of this confusion entering chaos as we start a school season here. >> deval patrick had no idea illegals were being poured into massachusetts. we're trying to find out where these kids have gone, i think 30,000 have disappeared into the system. in terms of the actual compassion shown to the children, to the surprise of many, yesterday on fox news sunday chris wallace asked what about the illegals. listen. >> we have 3,141 counties in this country. that would be 20 per coant. the idea that we can't

assimilate these eight-year-old criminals with their teddy bears is preposterous. >> what george will is saying, make them americans but spread them around. you know what? i know one mayor of a big town here in the united states who'd love to take 1,000 of the illegals is chicago mayor rahm emanuel. he said over the weekend, go ahead, we will take 100 -- rather, we'll take 1,000 of the illegals and we're going to use the city's legal resources to help them. but, you know, do the kids really want to go to one of the most dangerous, most violent, crazy towns? america? you look at the number of shootings over the last weekend alone, over the weekend there were 23 shootings this weekend alone. 23. when you look at the number of shootings in chicago from mid-june to mid-july, it was 220. so he can say we'll take 1,000 kids, but is it safe in chicago right now? >> not only that but when

you take those that are most susceptible to entering into gang violence, chicago is at the helm of this. they asked for federal agents ten days ago. the federal government said they were going to provide additional efforts to deal with the battle violence going on in chicago adding to a total of 52 alcohol, tobacco and firearm agents that have been added to their situation there. why would you take young kids, teens, put them in a situation where they're susceptible to more gang violence or joining gangs particularly when we have a gang taking advantage of the border crisis right now. ms-13. and adding to the complexity here of this? >> and give them free tattoos as they join domestic gangs. here's the thing about rahm emanuel. if you're in chicago, how outraged are you? it is basically a failed state. then mayor emanuel wants to look magnanimous and compassionate by saying give me 500 or 1,000 kids

that i will prop up. if i'm a parent or single parent trying to meak -- make things work in chicago and i hear you're going to use state funds for this, i'd be outraged. >> i was reading one blog post from a very prominent blogger out there who said we get all these shootings here in this town, mr. president, and you're talking about spending millions and billions of do texas. come on. >> give every kid some kevlar and send them to school. >> or give them a driver. the president of the united states over the weekend while we've got things going on with gaza, the stuff with the ukraine, the president of the united states spent the weekend with tony cornheiser and the host of espn at a congressional country club in washington, d.c. >> why not? i don't know how many rounds of golf it's been. i'm a person who thinks look, you want to golf, that's fine if it helps you

clear your head, if it helps you take action, golf all you want. but it doesn't seem to be the case when it comes to the united states. former secretary of state madeleine albright says the world is a mess. somebody better wake up to it. >> there have been really two huge game changers, and one is putin's behavior vis-a-vis crimea and then now towards ukraine and a completely different kind of behavior by russia. the other is what is happening in the middle, a lot due to the awakening. these are huge game changers. there are an awful lot of things going on that need understanding and explanation. but to put it mildly, the world is a mess. >> she's also being very political. if you watch the whole interview, she said i have no problem with the president not engaged, golfing, going to fund-raisers. he has 81 rounds of golf in

628 since the 2012 election. >> seemingly aloof as those have said. >> looked what happened to libya over the weekend. we had to evacuate our embassy. what happened to that operation? we go in with the arab league and we go into some western allies and we just leave. there was no plan. it's chaos. >> she's right. things are a mess. matt lewis of the daily caller wrote a column in the telegraph overred weekend. he says the president of the united states checked out of his job, phoning it in, sleepwalking through the second term with golf and dinner parties. he's prematurely packing his bags. he's ready for an early departure. while the world is aflame, everything is a mess, to paraphrase what madeleine albright just said, is it time for the president of the united states to pack up the golf bag and put it down and maybe do his job for a couple of days, maybe turn some of this stuff around? or it's the summer.

he should be taking it easy. what do you think? e-mail us. you can also twitter. >> james carville says the president doesn't care about the polls, he's already looking at his place in history which is not good for us. >> maybe take a look at the changing global map that's occurring right now. >> meanwhile, straight ahead, a stroll on the beach turns into a deadly nightmare when a plane slams right into the sand out of nowhere. the latest on this freak accident. >> another home-grown american company forced to do business overseas thanks to insane corporate taxes. but some calling walgreens unpatriotic for their stance. stuart varney is here with more on that.

they're keeping most of their business inside the united states but they're basically renouncing their citizenship and declaring that they're based someplace else just to avoid paying their fair share. >> that's the president's big address over the weekend. here to explain is the host of varney and company, stuart varney. companies leaving the country, what are they thinking? >> the president, i think, is setting up business, setting up the republicans so that in the election in november he can say look at those people, they're taking their money overseas. they're unpatriotic, they're not doing the right thing, not doing their fair share. it is a setup so the president can look very good come the november elections. there are numerous corporations who want to leave america, put their headquarters, a couple of jobs, overseas so they can take advantage of lower tax rates over there compared to the sky-high rates over here. the president wants to put a fence around america, stop anybody leaving. that's what he wants to do. instead of encouraging them

to stay -- >> or going to congress and say lower the corporate taxes. >> he does not negotiate with congress. he doesn't deal with congress. he doesn't have friends on the other side of the aisle with whom he can get together and structure some kind of a deal. but the worst result of all of this is we've got $2.1 trillion of american corporate profits which are going to stay over there because if they come back over here, they lose 35% of the federal government. so he stays there. it doesn't do us any good here. >> let me put up a graphic. let me show you action ladies and gentlemen, where businesses are not putting their money. they're not putting them in the u.a.e. their tax rate is 55%. in the united states we're at 40. japan is 35 with angola and argentina. another graphic with recent big companies that have moved from the united states. bausch & lomb has gone to canada. jim bean has gone to japan. and chiquita banana has

gone to ireland. >> they buy a smaller company in order to move headquarters there. >> instead of admitting it is bad, the president is blaming consistent. >> stay here, pay up, pay your fair share. would you allow, for example, a company in illinois to move to texas to take advantage of lower taxes? of course we do. >> the whole thing, what is the goal of the corporation? to maximum profits and revenue. >> for shareholders. absolutely. >> varney and company 11 to 1. >> thank you. i'll be there. >> coming up, effective immediately, police in d.c. cannot arrest anyone for legally carrying a gun. the ruling that just logged a major win for the second amendment. >> this guy arrested for drunk driving on a lawn mower. ♪ i do a lot oresearch on angie's list

just for carrying a gun as long as the gun is legal. it is a shock wave through the city. >> absolutely. when you look at this narrowly tailored law that they have had on the books in washington -- and i used to live there. they've got a million gun control laws on the books, and yet there's so much gun crime, it is just ridiculous down there. but to look at the fact that they have tailored it so specifically and for the judge to come out and say that is patently unconstitutional, now people across the country are going maybe they're waking up there. >> they actually are. d.c. is the only place in the country that has a -- has now a total ban on the right to bear arms. that's pretty shocking when you talk about the constitution. illinois was the last state and last year they passed a law allowing for conceal carry. d.c. is the last place. now this judge said, judge skullin in the district court said it is unconstitutional. d.c. has to allow people it carry guns, whether open or

concealed. they have to be allowed to carry handguns. now he wrote, according to police last night, anyone who is a nond.c. resident can legally carry in d.c. and d.c. residents, if you have a registered gun like i do, i can carry. if you don't have a registered gun you can still be arrested on the unregistered gun law. >> you have a gun because, among other reasons, you were the victim of a home invasion but you couldn't have a gun back then. now you can have it going forward. i want to you react, emily, to what the d.c. council chairman put out a statement and said because of the district's unique national security concerns, the right to carry a firearm in public must be more heavily restricted than anyplace else in the nation. four u.s. presidents have been assassinated by gunfire and at least five others have been shot at including ronald reagan who was seriously wounded by mr. hinckley. your reaction? >> i would say we had this

weather was yesterday and that will problem help today. most airplanes will take extreme weather. they are built under f.a.a. certification, a very strict standard. >> they can take the heavy rain and absorb the lightning strikes? >> correct. if you're in the united states you know where that heavy rain is. you want to stay away from thunderstorms and that is probably what happened in algeria. you know where they are here in the united states because we have radar every place. not so in these other countries. >> i understand when it comes to turbulence, we can only predict turbulence? >> we have turbulence reports that come out of the national weather service every single day. before any pilot flies, whether a short trip or long one, they look at that because that will impact what the comfort of their passengers are. >> a lot of people get upset the plane is going to be late but they're delaying because of a flight. you're saying if you are a passenger, you can decide the weather doesn't feel right, i don't want to take the risk, i'm not getting on.

that is something we can decide to do, we all can't get our money back? >> that is true. that is up to the carrier whether they give you your money back or not. for the most part with domestic carriers you're going to fly in safe weather in safe conditions. their standards are higher than the f.a.a. makes them do. >> this is what i've lerpd over the last six months, number one, the flight pattern matters, the weather matters. i don't know if it is possible but i'd like to know what my pilots have been up to. you look at the malaysian pilots, is there any way we can do a background check on the pilot we're going to have? >> no simple way of doing that. we know for the most part the airlines do a pretty good job of weeding out bad eggs in their area. when we fly foreign airlines we don't know for sure we're up to the same standards as the united states. >> just to check out your carrier and know if it's domestic the odds are great that you're going to be

a new bill passed by congress now makes it legal for cell phone users to unlock their device, allowing them to be usedden other networks. how will this impact you? tech expert chris the cyber guy joining us live this morning. this is a big difference maker because when a phone is locked, can you explain that? >> good morning. yes. we're talking about you're about to get money back in your wallet. how? in the past, you have bought a phone maybe through a verizon store, at & t store and they would give you the phone with a deal and you have a certain term. at the end of that contract, if you wanted to go to another company, many times the phone could not be used anywhere else, meaning it was locked. now legislation passed on friday by congress and the president expected to sign it, will indeed put an end to all of that. it's absurd as this, imagine we buy a new car. it's ford, chevy, doesn't matter. and a part of buying that car, they say you can only get gas from the mobil station. how absurd and restricted would

that be? >> that's not freedom. >> mobil would realize that and say, let's jack up the price for curt and elisabeth when they come in for gas. >> when it comes to phone, that's what people have been dealing with, no competition in termination of prices and your hands are tied. >> less competition, exactly. and now you're going to have the choice. they can no longer tell you you can get gas at one station. you can get phone service with your cell phone anywhere you want. and when we travel abroad, we'll be able to use our phone with other services there that were restricted, and imagine this, tens of thousands of cell phones that would otherwise end up in the landfills are going to be able to stay alive. your phone, perfectly good, should be able to use another service. instead of us having to throw it out, we're going to be able to keep that. >> a new frontier here. >> mainly freedom of phone and saving money. >> apple is extracting information, has the capacity to

extract information from your phone and we didn't know this? >> we're talking about a forensic analyst who is really good with how the inside of a iphone works. apple has been keeping a secret. they haven't revealed to us, the 600 million iphone users, that, in fact, they have created a back door or a mechanism that circumvents them to get to your personal data. it doesn't mean they're exploiting it or doesn't mean the phone is not secure. it simply means there is something very suspicious here. >> can you opt out of this? >> you can not opt out of it. the only way out of it is to completely erase your phone, making it useless and you're then going to get it again probably when you plug in your phone to a trusted source. you're going to recreate that pairing to a trusted source which would allow access. what does this mean? no, there is no proof yet. but the nsa has used this back door to get your personal information.

but there is actually a process that law enforcement has to follow that apple has provided to them and this potentially could be one of those channels to fulfill a request for the government to look at information on your phone. should they have told us about it? >> i think so. is there more to this? they claim this is simply diagnostic tool mechanisms put in place. it's will for troubleshooting. >> why didn't they let everybody know if it was simply that? >> by the way, it's not just that. it actually has been looked at further and another analyst said no, no. this is not for diagnostics. this is personal data. so apple needs to come clean. >> we're going to stay on this. come back more. thanks. coming up, americans wish they voted for mitt romney. the brand-new poll that shows the state of the country. so now what? donald trump, top of the hour on that. and the gift you should never, ever buy for a wedding.

chicago. it's disgraceful. >> 23 over the weekend alone. >> yeah. it's disgraceful. but chicago is a place i happen to love. i think it's great. and they got a lot of problems. this is not the way that you're going to solve the problem. people are coming into the country. they have disease. they have lots of other situations going on and very interestingly, in many cases, they don't speak english and they don't speak spanish. they have indian dialect. we don't have anybody that can speak that language. it's languages that we don't know in this country and we're not equipped to handle. now we're supposed to educate everybody. this is madness. what's going on in this country is madness. >> it sure is. to add to the violence there, 23 shootings over the weekend, 220 reported in the summer there. we just are wondering how this is going to solve the problem and then we're hearing governors across the country are calling on the president to lead while this is happening, now that's

being dumped into the states. and these governors don't even know it. we just saw governor from tennessee who wrote a letter to the president saying not only was our state not informed prior to any of the children being brought here, says being contacted and has -- ice is being contacted and they have no information other than what's on the web site. he's saying we didn't even know they were here. 760 illegal minors are here now and we had no idea until we went on the web site for hhs? >> it is very sad. they're being spread all over the country. not only don't the governors know, nobody knows they're there. ultimately, you're never going to be able to get them back to where they're from. our country can't handle it. we can't do it. whether it's the problems of infectious diseases, in some cases, very, very infectious diseases. our country can't handle this. we have no country. we have no borders. we have no anything. so something has to take place.

it has to take place fast. they're being spread all over the country and they're never going to be returned. >> you know what? they're not telling anybody for the most part, mr. trump, in the localities because we know the dirty little secret, if you drop 1,000 kids into a state, come september, for example n new jersey, those 1,000 kids will end up going to school. who pays for that? the property owners of the state of new jersey. >> it really does seem like it cannot be this stupid. it just can't be this stupid. it must be a concerted effort to get these kids into the system, add them into the system. later on they'll become citizens and they'll vote democratic. this has to be some kind of a concerted effort by the president to let people come into the country because it's not that tough. somebody asked me, what would i do? i'd call mexico and say if you don't stop this from happening -- mexico is like the highway right into this country. and you can not get into mexico.

you can not become a citizen of mexico. you can not come into the country. but in this case, they're letting them walk right through mexico, right into our doorway and they want them out fast, by the way. get out fast. we have such power over mexico, we don't use it. >> we had a productive meeting with them last week, we heard. >> yeah, right. >> we have a marine there who has been in prison for a long, long time now and no power when it comes to getting his release. >> he's the only one from mexico that cannot get into our country. amazing thing. they're treating him badly. they're beating the hell out of him in prison. they're treating him badly. unlike our traitor, when we gave five killers, five real enemies of the state, bergdahl, unlike him, this guy was a very solid citizen as a soldier. so it's really crazy. but what we do is you stop it by telling mexico, we're not doing business with you anymore. we support mexico. we have so many companies in mexico. we give them tax advantages to

build companies in mexico. look, our country is getting to a point where tear not going to be able to come back. >> you look at our country. madeline albright said yesterday, you look around the world, things are a mess. you got the ukraine, gaza, the southern invasion. perhaps, mr. trump, that is why in a brand-new poll, americans wish essentially they would have elected mitt romney. brand-new poll out, if the election for two years ago were held today, mitt romney would win in a landslide essentially. of course, it's meaningless because they're not really voting for president again in 2014 for 2012. but it is indicative of the trouble that this president is in. >> the president is doing a terrible job. he's a terrible president. the country is going down. we're a laughing stock all over the world. you look at what's happened to the world under our watch. the whole world is exploding. whether it was the fact that we broke up iraq, which was one of the dumbest things ever.

you look at -- you know, whether you like saddam hussein or not, he used to kill terrorists. he would kill terrorists. there were very few of them in iraq. this is now a breeding ground. this is called the harvard of terrorism. go to iraq. you learn all about it. perhaps the fact that that all blew up it showed everyone else they could do the same thing. the world has never, ever been in a position like that. it's a tinderbox. one big tinderbox. the problem we have is weapons are getting more and more dangerous, more and more horrible and we've never had a thing like that before. and a lot of it's the power of the weaponry. >> also giving money to the palestinians to blow themselves up in israel and invading other nations and pretty much a menace of the middle east. but i got to bring something else kind of exciting. next to the white house for you, you broke ground with gold shovels. >> we're doing a fantastic job

giving lots of jobs. we're building at the old post office, which is the best location in washington, d.c., right smack in the middle of pennsylvania avenue, between the white house and congress. we have the most magnificent building in washington. truly one of the great buildings in washington. we're going to turn that into one of the great hotels of the world. we start construction on monday of next week. it's going to be very, very exciting. we had a ground breaking there. everybody was there. it's going to be a very exciting development. again, a lot of jobs are going to be used for building and for operating the hotel and it's going to be truly -- because of the infrastructure, because of what we're doing and we will have all of those things that you mentioned, and more. we'll have things they don't even know about. in that world, things are coming along so quickly, the world of the internet, that you don't even know about them now. including the wi-fi crock pot. >> the funny thing, in two years, 18 months when we open

that, will be obsolete. they'll have something else. >> 2016 is when it's supposed to open. >> it will open 2016. it will open june of 2016. i've always said sometime prior to november, but we should be able to do that -- november being a very important month. >> if you want, we'll supervise the construction. >> i understand. november being maybe the most important month in this country in many, many years, frankly. we are going to need somebody truly great to come in and run this country because we don't have that now. >> donald trump, who will have at least one address in washington, d.c. in 2016, we thank you for joining us live today on this monday. >> thank you very much. it's dozen minutes after the top of the hour. coming up, just days before a five-week recess, congress attempting a last-ditch effort to take action on our southern border. what's the holdup? the democrat who co-sponsored the bill is going to join us live coming up next.

been misinterpreted. you want to change that? >> that's correct. if you think about it, why is it that the smugglers -- they have found a loophole in the 2008 law. this law, what we want to do, do a very surgical change. every protection, all the due process is kept, except we eliminate a loophole in the 2008 that the smugglers have found a way to make millions and millions of dollars every month. >> dan pheiffer comes out and he says, the cornyn-cuellar plan does not meet white house standards of deferring might abrasion while protecting asylum. >> first of all, keep in mind that president obama brought this idea back in june 30 when he sent a letter saying i need money and i need a policy change. secretary johnson has been very, very good. he has said we need the resources and we need the policy

change of 2008. in fact, when i asked him about this proposal, he said, quote, henry, we're on the same page. so when the white house says it doesn't meet the standards, well, we're using the standards they suggested to us, and if they have a better idea, talk to us. >> exactly. exactly. if he wants to get something done. so you need money to speed up the process to get these kids back home where they belong. critics say it could be a dangerous situation. number two, a lot of democrats don't want to change this 2008 law and that's the main problem. >> you know, it's unfortunate. but i think we'll get more democrats. when the vote comes on the floor, we will get democrats. right now the only ones we have are blue dogs that -- some of the blue dogs have signed on. number two, is keep in mind that even hillary clinton has suggested -- she says she's open to the 2008 law 'cause she understands we have to have not only resources, but we have to

but would a move like this put drugs in the hands of more kids? former drug czar john walter joins us now from our dc bureau. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> so the "new york times" on the editorial page yesterday said it's time to repeal it. it's essentially been a prohibition. i'm gog read an excerpt. they write, it's been more than 40 years since congress passed the current ban on marijuana. inflicting great harm on society just to prohibit a substance far less dangerous than alcohol. the federal government should repeal a ban on marijuana. what do you say? >> pretty stupid. they act like they live on another planet. more people are in treatment for marijuana than all other illegal drugs combined. more kids, as teen-agers, are treated for marijuana than alcoholism. we're not keeping it out of the hands of kids and explode ago substance where we have alcohol and tobacco, which is the single biggest cause of illness and death that's preventible,

adding a third substance -- this is the way they treat environmental toxins. that's not the way they treat things that treat the health of america. all of the science, you covered it at fox, all the science, monthly, is showing more risk at a time when science is telling us one thing, the "new york times" wants to act like it's time to be ruled by cheech and chong. insane. >> it is insane. you're talking about the science. you have been on this program talking about the science. it is proven that pot makes you dumb. >> yeah. steady use, especially as you start as late teens, now can reduce i.q. by eight points, which is not just eight points. if you had normal i.q., you drop by a whole fifth and your capacity to compete. when we want to be competitive, we want to be good to our children, how do we lower their i.q. on a wide scale? to say you're going to keep this out of the hands of kids, look what's going on in denver. disaster. people cannot keep it out of the

hands of kids. it's being marketed to kids, in high potencies. people are scared. we're going to try to help them. but the administration is utterly irresponsible and it's just horrifying to the people who live there. >> regarding the experiment, the legal experiment that's going on out in colorado, during the commercial break we were talking about what's going on out there regarding the legal use of marijuana. you had a jaw-dropping statement regarding kids sending their kids to school are afraid of what? >> well, parents cannot send food or drink with their children. i met with some of the parents in suburban denver because of the concentrates, because of the things that can be put in food, being marketed in fruit juice, brownies, so kids cannot bring any food or drink to school -- a woman i met with, parent, all consumables at school have to be prepared under the supervision of school officials to prevent kids from being poisoned. why would we do this to our children? why to our community?

it doesn't stay contained. 40 states have been recipients by law enforcement cases of colorado-made marijuana. when your neighbor does this, you're doing it. so this is not an experiment. this is a wholesale failure to enforce the law by president obama. >> speaking of presidents, the president of our country met with the president of honduras over the last couple of days and the president of hon occur has came out and said, look, i have a very violent country. that's kind of his fault. but he also said, the united states is responsible for this crisis on your southern border because americans use too many of our drugs. what do you think about that? >> well, this is not cooperation. this is a failure to recognize responsibility, as you point out. this is a country that's riddled with corruption. i hope the new president will step up. the united states asked for extradition of key and bad actors there. they haven't done it. we've asked for the ratification of a treaty to help us with interdiction, they haven't done it. we've tried to provide aid -- i

launches at israel, including one that landed in the city we're standing in, which is just north of the gaza border, didn't cause any damage or injuries, it has remained very calm compared to what we've seen over the last 21 days. possibly representative of this, let me show you something. in the distance, you'll see a group of tanks. those tanks last night were over the ridge right on the israel-gaza border firing into an area which has seen an intense amount of fighting and military activity over the course of the last 21 days. those tanks now have been pulled back several hundred yards and remain in a stand still position at this point. yesterday afternoon and evening we did see activity. we saw air strikes, explosions in the distance. we also saw artillery fire. israel remains committed to destroying hamas' infrastructure and network of cross-border

tunnels. israel has stipulated that even with a cease fire, it would continue with this operation which has been a main priority since day one of operation protective edge. we know that president obama did speak with israeli prime minister netanyahu, calling for an immediate cease fire, the u.n. as well. israel has said it would accept an egyptian brokered cease fire to allow more long-term negotiations. right now there has been no agreement on a cease fire. but as i said, it is calm for now along the border, a contrast to what we've seen the past 21 days. back to you. >> you never know when things will change. john huddy, stand by out there for the very latest. the egyptians are blowing up more tunnels they found and they're being rearmed by guess who. north korea, the whole axis of evil still out there. >> we had heard that there was a shortage of building supplies for the palestinians. turns out they were building tunnels. >> right.

of a car. thousands now waking up in the dark. maria molina has been doing some storm chasing on the weekend and joins us live from 48th and sixth avenue. >> good morning. that's right. i was in kentucky yesterday. we saw several funnel clouds and some strong storms that later went on to produce some possible tornadoes in parts of tennessee and all of that damage that you just saw on your screen. but today that same storm system is on the move and there is a risk for more severe weather stretching from parts of mississippi into the carolinas and the risk out here today is going to be large hail, damaging winds, and isolated tornadoes yet again today. the other concerns are hot temperatures and a lot of humidity. we have a number of heat advisories. it could be as hot as 112 degrees. that storm system responsible, by the way, for more than 350 reports of severe weather stretching from tennessee up into the northeast has produced a big cooldown now across portions of the great lakes. high temperatures well below

average. could be setting record lows by early tomorrow morning. tonight it will be a chilly one across parts of the great lakes. take a look at cleveland. the high there forecast to be 67 degrees. low 70s in chicago. let's head back inside. >> thank you very much. time magazine has a great item where they talk about whether it's a sign of the time or health consciousness or for whatever reason, there are things that americans have historically bought a lot of that suddenly we're not buying so much of. for instance, did you realize in the last four-week period, cereal sales are down 7% because a lot of people are starting their day with yogurt or fast food or they want more protein. they don't want cereal. >> in terms of sales, gum is down. it turns out people look like big cows chewing cud and they're tired of it. >> no, it's because they're buying mints and candy. >> that, too. but it's true, they do look terrible when they do it. >> gun sales have also begun down. razors are down right now

network. to compare to the civil rights movement seems insulting. >> it really is insulting. it's beyond the pale. it insults almost everybody. obviously it would insult anybody involved in a civil rights movement and also the workers because essentially i guess what you're saying to these workers is you were born this way and this position where you can never better yourself, you can never get an education, you can never work otherwise, you can never pool your money and start a business. you are stuck in this because somehow you were born with deficiencies that you'll only have a certain skill set. the minimum skill set. so at the very least, what we can do, because we're so nice and we are the union after all, we'll find a way to at least get you more money because obviously you're stuck because you were born in this situation. >> we're determined to win for our children and ourselves. together we're going to build a better future. we're ready to engage in nonviolent action to make larger corporations hear us. we stand on the shoulders of movements that have transformed

america. >> it's again, extraordinarily insulting and what about the small businesses that are out there? most restaurants fail. most restaurants don't work. they go out of business. they work on very thin margins. most people lose money. they have the proceeds pentecost of a 50% chance of not making it. on top of that, we're getting these ideas now, part-time workers should have certain rights. union workers. these restaurant workers and minimum wage workers, somehow their civil rights are being -- >> trampled on. >> yeah. whatever happened to the country that talked about the maximum? like sky is the limit. we are quibbling over things where it's really about creating divisiveness. it's not economic solution to anything. by the way, it still would be the minimum wage. i think people out there want to think about maximum. >> what do those numbers mean? >> here are the states that increased minimum wage, hawaii, maryland, massachusetts, vermont, connecticut,

washington, d.c. >> well, you're talking $15. most people watching this show, their haul househead median income is the same as 1989. you're talking about doubling the salary for the lowest skill sets out there. you're talking about really encouraging people or enabling people not to better themselves. hey, why should i go to college at night if i'm going to get a raise from 7 to $15? if this becomes a civil rights issue and i can always go and demand more, what we're really talking about, and i say this all the time. there are people in this country trying to create a utopian welfare society. it's very expensive and they've got to attack corporate balance sheets. watch me 6:00 p.m. every night on the "fox business" network. >> he's making money. thank you. >> we got him up early just for us. straight ahead on this show, stressed about what gift to buy for the next wedding? >> that. >> i'll go all day. place settings, candle sticks,

89 house laid out -- the house laid out what we'll do to solve this problem. the president wants to sit back and play politics. he's flying around the country doing fund-raisers. he doesn't have time to come and work with congress. >> the house can pass something, but without the senate, nothing. >> yeah. that's true. i think chris wallace pressed congressman scalise whether they would extend and not take their vacation and he wouldn't get there. the hope is that they can come to some deal on this supplemental and it will be much scaled down money wise. but the main thing is change the language as we've talked about of the 2008 law that would enable them to speed up the deportation process for the central american kids. that could happen this week before the end of the week. you're right, five weeks recess. that's not a bad deal. >> they're going to get a v.a. deal, on paper it seems like it's a bipartisan agreement. they also have to come up with some type of funding on the

highway bill. when it comes to this 2008 bill, it's democrats who don't want to change it. republicans are in to changing that, which is kind of odd this time. >> yeah, it is. especially since the administration at first came out and said they were open to and wanted to see that law changed, the specific law and the wording. so there is this pushback. the thought is that they can get around it. they can get through it before the end of the week. if they don't, the question then will be to congressman scalise and others, are you going to stick around? are you going to wait until it gets resolved? >> george wills said this when it comes to deportation. >> we have 3141 counties in this country. that would be 20 per county. the idea we can't assimilate these eight-year-old criminals with their teddy bears is preposterous. >> so that's something you don't hear from many conservatives on television, bret. he is suggesting with these kids, don't deport them. make them americans.

just spread them around. >> yeah. you do hear that from some. brit hume has said something similar. and others. but i guess there are a lot of people, especially along the border towns, that want to know where the line is drawn. they want to know where the end of that is and they also want to know that the line that's established of people who are in line to get citizenship is respected. >> what about governors aren't even prepared to have this happen. they're finding out on line that 760 in the case of tennessee, the governor there found out that there were 760 of these kids dumped there unbeknownst to him. this is the governor there, not only was our state not informed prior to any of the children being brought there, still not been contacted and have no information about these individuals or their sponsors other than what was posted on the hhs web site and subsequently reported in the media. they're being caught offguard. they don't know if the kids had their immunization, if their sponsors have been legal with

paperwork. they have no information and he has 760 kids there. over 30,000 of these children this year alone have been placed into the hands of states from the federal government. what is going to be done? >> this is the most amazing part of this story, that this is not getting more outrage, more coverage. this isn't just republican governors speaking out. there are democratic governors in similar situations finding out that there are kids being transferred to their state and they didn't know about it. and originally when asked about this, the white house press secretary, josh earnest said it was a matter of privacy for those children. >> yeah. >> for the central american kids. >> whoever they are. >> that really was spell binding because -- >> it's not true. >> it's not true and we care about their rights more than the rights of americans. i'm curious to see if the president will wait for vacation and start issuing executive orders addressing it the way he wants. speaking of the president, what did you think of this poll out

when americans were asked, who would they vote for if the vote was today. romney gets 53%. the president, 48. president romney hasn't had to make a decision in two years. president obama has made a few. that has a lot to do with it. that surprise you? >> no. the president's approval rating has taken a dive, as you've seen all these things around the world. you've seen a lot of sound bites about how mitt romney said that russia was the number one geopolitical foe in the wake of the russian ukraine situation. you've seen a lot of looking back. you're right. mitt romney is not making decisions day-to-day. but it's still an interesting poll if you look at all the things that have been said about that race since then. >> hillary beats mitt romney head to head in the same poll. >> yeah. not surprising either. despite a little bump in the road with the book launch has managed to hold up her favorability rating. >> but it does show you the

voter dissatisfaction with our current president. meanwhile, i want you to listen to -- here is hillary clinton talking about george w. bush and how he made her proud to be an american. >> george w. bush is very popular in sub saharan africa. why? because of the president's emergency program for aids relief. whether you agree or disagree with a lot of what else he did and i disagree with a lot of it, i am proud to be an american when i go to sub saharan africa and people say, i want to thank president bush and the united states for helping us fight hiv aids. >> she makes a good point. george bush did a lot regarding hiv aids in africa. but what's going on there? is she, a, proud to be an american because of george bush, or b, trying to distance herself from her former works barak obama? >> i think it's a combination. you have to take her at her word. there were a lot of democrats

who praised the efforts of president bush in africa and what was done there, a lot of people don't even remember. changed the entire perspective of the u.s. in africa. you have bono and others who have spoken out about president bush's efforts throughout that. it often gets overlooked. too, she is on this crusade to say america needs o do a better job around the world of talking about itself and promoting its own values and in essence, criticizing the current administration for not doing that and making the wrong decisions again and again. so it is a subtle dig, but probably warranted praise that she talked about before. >> perhaps a strategic reachout as some describe president obama's methods as retreat from the globe. >> bret, we're going to be watching you ten hours from right now. have a great day. >> we'll see you later. heather nauert is here. you have some headlines. >> good morning. there is wild weather all across

the country. particularly california. a day at the beach ending in panic and chaos when a rare thunderstorm hits southern california. lightning striking venice beach, killing a 20-year-old man and injuring more than a dozen others. at least two victims were in the water during this strike. witnesses recording it as lifeguards pull one person to shore. beach goers say the storm took them completely by surprise. >> it was an incredibly loud flash, like a bomb went off. >> people that were just frightened for their lives. people running. people looking up in the air. really scary. >> that same storm hit catalina island where a golfer was struck by lightning and is expected to be okay. a freak accident on a florida beach leaves a father dead and his daughter in critical condition this morning. a single engine plane was forced to make an emergency landing on a beach in sarasota. that's when 36-year-old man and his nine-year-old daughter who were just out for a walk were

hit by that airplane, stunned witnesses immediately called police. >> nothing you see every day, that's for sure. i was not expecting to come to the beach and see a plane on the ground. they were performing cpr on him. he had blood on his face. it looked like he wasn't breathing at all. >> he was pronounced dead at the scene. his daughter is hanging on for life at the hospital this morning. another woman reportedly suffered a heart attack after she witnessed that incident. the pilot and passenger on board that plane are both uninjured. the ntsb is investigating the cause of that crash. do you remember when those three daredevils jumped off the new world trade center building in manhattan last fall? okay. now their lawyer has a stunt of his own. he's doing this for his clients. he jumped out of a plane with them. the attorney and them going sky

a very special guest made her debut on the house floor this week. >> here is abigail rose butler. >> if you look closely, you can see one-year-old abigail rose in the arms of her mom, congresswoman jamie butler.

lawmakers applauding the miracle of that little girl's life because when butler was pregnant, she and her husband were told abigail would not survive. abigail suffering from potter's syndrome. she had no kidneys. she was told to terminate her pregnancy of the unwilling to do that and after prayers and experimental treatment, abigail was born and now she is thriving and she joins us now with her parents, congresswoman jamie butler and dan butler. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> she's starting to talk, sorry about that. >> we don't mind that here at all. that voice is a miracle voice. you can talk any time you would like. we hear your story and it was such a joy to see the applause there on capitol hill for you, your family and your decision. what did the doctors tell you that day in the ultrasound room? >> they told us that with 100% certainty she would not survive. they said 100% fatal.

no baby has ever survived this. she will die. and it was terrifying 'cause they said it -- she would either miscarry or if we happened to give birth and she made it that far, she would suffocate because of her lack of lung development, because of the lack of kidneys. as you can see, even well-meaning doctors don't always know. only god knows the end. because now we see abigail. see her smile. she's gorgeous. so remarkable is the sight right here. dan, when you hear that from a physician, that this is 100% not going to work out well for you guys, not going to work out well for abigail, she was going to die. when you hear that, you decided to do what? >> well, it took us kind of 24 hours of reeling and regaining our feet, but we decided -- we felt the lord calling us to be parents right away. not to wait 'til she's born, but

to begin fighting for her and advocating for her. so that's what we did. we were really grateful to be put in touch with a doctor who was willing to give her a chance. >> and try something experimental. >> that spermal team, can you -- that experimental treatment, can you explain that? >> it's very basic. it's not a high-tech treatment. it's back of saline water and a needle. >> very long needle. >> it's like a reverse am nio. but basically she would take a needle and put fluid into the womb because that was the problem, without kidney, there is no amniotic fluid. then her lungs won't grow. she put the fluid in once a week and we would watch abigail grow in the ultrasound each week. her feet were originally clubbed. we watched them unclub. her lungs grew and you can see she's happy and healthy. >> she's got a great smile. now is her treatment continuing and how is she today?

she looks great. >> she's great. she's a happy, healthy, growing little baby. one of her doctors said she's a happy baby who happens to not have kidneys. she's on dialysis every night. hopefully when she gets bigger, she'll be able to get a kidney transplant and things will be even better. >> dad said that modestly. dodd volunteered to give her one of his kidneys. we're both a match, but dad wants to be the one to do it. >> wow. >> we're just growing her. >> you've got a good mommy and daddy there. congresswoman dan, we thank you for joining us and sharing the miracle that is abigail rose with us. we love you, abigail. so thankful. >> thank you. >> amazing. still ahead, peyton manning takes a tough hit behind the line of scrimmage from his own kids, you see had here and you've got to see this cute video. next, the big tackle ir is perfe.
