>> "fox & friends" starts next. they have a special guest. >> you need to stick around because the beach boys are on the plaza. >> doing a little shagging with the beach boys. >> have a good weekend. . good morning. it is friday, august 15. police making a big announcement in the ferguson, missouri, shooting case. in a few hours the police officer's name will be released but is that safe? we are live with the latest developments this morning. >> two girls kidnapped in broad daylight have been found alive. how they escaped and who police are looking for this morning. >> it is a shirt meant to show off patriotic pride but the veteran who wore it says it got him booted from six flags. that's confusing. we'll inwind it because mornings are better with friends.

♪ ♪ you're looking live at an empty stage with canned music? because the beach boys recorded it and let us use it to promoment -- promote their appearance. they'll hit our stage this morning. >> get your surf boards ready. the beach boys are coming. 48th and 6th. >> a political beach -- a

little beach shagging. >> there's going to be huge lines. get here early. last week was a huge crowd. i think this is going to be tremendous. get here early. would he feed you and then we sing to you. >> we've got a jam packed show this friday starting with a fox news alert now. as elisabeth was mentioning, in a short time the police are going to release the name of the officer who shot and killed michael brown out there in ferguson, missouri, this morning. >> that's right. also attorney general eric holder spoke with the family of michael brown. updates to bring you now in solidarity with those in st. louis. thousands of protesters peacefully taking to the streets in rallies across the country. this as the violence in ferguson begins quieting down after the state highway patrol is put in charge of security. doug luzader is live in washington, d.c. with the latest. the name is set to be released today of the officer who fired the shot. >> that's right. this may stir up a whole

we'll see how that goes. after days of violent confrontations between police and protesters in ferguson, some level of calm is returning to the streets there as the justice department begins an investigation. there are still protests going on there in ferguson, but the violence that we have seen in recent days has begun to subside. some believe that is due in no small part to the state's decision to place a state patrol captain who grew up in the area in charge of the response. >> i grew up here, and this is currently my community and my home. therefore, it means a lot to me personally that we break this cycle of violence, defuse the tension and build trust showing the utmost respect for every interaction with every citizen. >> u.s. attorney general eric holder meantime has been tasked with investigating the shooting and looking into the initial police response to the protests which many

believe has been heavy-handed and there are lingering questions about the militarization of police departments in general and whether some have gone too far taking advantage of a glut of surplus military gear par seld out to local departments around the country. >> do i think if the police department needs to be demilitarized? i think the police response has become peaft -- part of the program. >> a lot of small police departments around the country are scooping up a lot of equipment that used to be used for the military. >> let's talk about what happened. as you know, the texture of the protests much better. it was calm. reporters at the scene said can't tell you, the day before i felt my life was in danger. last night during the protest i felt it was peaceful. the president comes out, the attorney general makes a call. i think it's important.

also important the president of the fraternal order of police said mr. president, back off with your conclusions and condemnations about the police force from your vacation in martha's vineyard. >> your party in martha's vineyard. photos were released showing the president dancing in martha's vineyard. you in martha's vineyard making comments about what is going on here is hypocritical now. >> seemingly taking the arm away from the security there. a big difference maker is this appointment of the highway patrol to oversee security there. the gentleman you saw made a strong statement particularly to the young black community there saying if you need me, i'm here. i'll give you my address. come to me, really connecting back to the community i think will be a difference maker moving forward. >> he said i grew up down the street from here. he said there is not going to be any looting, not going to have businesses going up in flames anymore. we're going to have order.

this came from the governors office to keep order and make sure these small protests will be winding down as they were overnight. >> gas masks are off the officers. there will be a different tone and it was. >> among the critics rand paul. a lot of libertarians say i have a problem with the way police are armed and protecting themselves. i wasn't there. none of us were. i don't see video of this incident. to say they overreacted or underreacted i think jumps to conclusions. if you want to talk about past history, go ahead. make that transparent and open. if you want to make the police department better, sure. but to say they've got to stop with the muscle with the police department, stop being overaggressive or blame the community, i don't think we're capable of doing that at 48th and 6th. i don't think we're capable of doing that with the protesters at times square yesterday either. >> there is a growing portion of the republican party, the libertarian wing being led by rand paul who are upset by this. they are saying the mill --

militarization of police departments. they are getting the equipment from war. rand paul joining up with democrats. it is like an unlikely group of bedfellows now. >> to side note, the family did meet with an arm of the department of justice. it is a peacekeeping unit there, community relations service. apparently the family of the victim felt way more comfortable after the meeting and after a phone call that took place with eric holder. >> seven minutes after the hour. we have a major story yesterday. change of leadership in iraq and the president feeling as though essentially almost declaring victory with these humanitarian efforts and his effort to deescalate the would-be crisis of that small religious sect in northern iraq. 5000 of these men, yazidis are captured, 200 women are captured possibly put no slavery or forced into

marriages and the president saying crisis averted. here he is yesterday. let's hear. >> the bottom line is the situation on the mountain has greatly improved and americans should be very proud of our efforts, because the skill and professionalism of our military and the generosity of our people, we broke the isil siege on mount sinjar. >> no one is discounting how brave these members of the military were having gone in there having to choose. the horrific images having to choose which people to take off the helicopter. husbands getting off the planes, the aircraft and saying my wife and daughter and kids, you guys go on. i don't know if i'll ever see you again. there are mixed reports this morning that there might be thousands of refugees trapped there on that mountain. >> based on the contingency operations so bravely carried out, they are saying no further action at this point will be undertaken, but not everyone is agreeing a

victory dance should be occurring right now from the president. colonel oliver north is one of them. he spoke last night. >> the golfer in chief is going to have to focus for a little while. one of the only good pieces of news in this is isis, whatever they call themselves, have captured so much abandoned u.s. materiel and equipment that they are now recruiting and advertising for mechanics and technicians to maintain the armored vehicles. if we don't do more like get another carrier battle group out there, we've made a serious mistake. >> if someone told you that al qaeda is gathering in this one area and selling the oil and establishing a government, we would bomb them. yet isis is established there and we're saying iraqis, get your government together and decide what's important. i'll tell you what's important, destroying them. it's also important to know on that mountain, people that live there have a different portrayal of what's happening there. the only representative of the yazidi community said

this about the crisis being over: no way. it is not true. it is better now but it is not true that we are safe especially on the south side of the mountain. the situation is terrible. she estimates there are many trapped on mount sinjar, between 70,000 and 80,000. that was from monday. i don't know where all those people got to safety but it is hard to believe in one day they're trying to get out of choppers and the next day they're fine. >> they didn't need these extra pallets of food we're dropping. some of them were left untouched according to the pentagon this morning. but you heard what colonel north said about isis posting images of the military equipment they've captured. horrible. they've taken to twitter and social media. you go through these images, they've got armored tanks, armored humvees, uniforms, guns, ammunition. on the side it says property of the u.s. government. >> seized from fleeing government soldiers in

iraq, posted wildly on twitter, taunting the united states. this is certainly not over. no victory dance here. >> i love what the president has done taking action. i just wish we would go the rest of the way and understand there is iraq and there is isis. one has nothing to do with iraq and the other has to do with us. because they say and they posted even though they're focused on establishing a caliphate their eyes are on us. if things start blowing up here, we're going to go right there. that should tell you how important they are. keep in mind, i think there is some kind of rift with the military. rear admiral kirby yesterday, the situation in iraq remains dangerous. the president has been clear about our limited military objectives in iraq. they weren't speaking like that eight years ago during operations. >> but yesterday the president said we're going to keep our eye very closely on them. there are minorities that need protecting. he mentioned every member of the iraqi government. he mentioned the kurds, the sunnis, the shia.

basically every person who lives in -- and christians he mentioned yesterday would all need protection, which sounds like chaos to me. >> it sounds like he was saying a couple of things at the same time leading to confusion. >> while you were sleeping two missing amish men are home safe after kidnappers snatched them off the street in broad daylight. ainsley, what do you have for us? >> a happy ending to this story. the young sisters waking up in their own beds this morning. about 24 hours after they were kidnapped from their family's food stand in upstate new york. the two who are 7 and 12 years old vanished after police say they were abducted by two people driving a white sedan. a witness claims one of the suspects got out and put something in the back seat and when the car drove off

those children were gone. the little girls were alone at the time and police say the suspects took them to a house about 30 miles away and ordered them to stay inside. instead the girls fled. eventually they found a man who recognized them from the police sketch and that person returned them back to their home. thankfully the girls were not injured. just a little cold and a little wet. police looking at sex offenders in that community as they're hunting for the suspects. back to you. meanwhile, from one great anchor to another, welcome heather nauert. >> good morning, guys. texas governor rick perry says he's protecting the people of texas and the united states and we have brand-new developments to bring you this morning from that state. the first national guard troops just arrived on the texas-mexico border and manning observation posts in the town of hildago. their mission is to report suspicious activity.

that goodbye may be all there is. nbc top reps may not let him say goodbye on air. >> i want to welcome in a stuart varney moment because they are always great. what brings you in today. i see you have startling stats. >> i've got a story about government. president obama is the president who is all government all the time. my opinion is he's changed america into a giant d.m.v. and we don't like it. i've got a poll for you. when asked what you want from your government, two-thirds of the people now say just leave me alone, please. leave me alone. one-third say lend me a hand. that's a complete reversal of how we felt collectively three years ago. two-thirds say leave me alone. one-third says, okay, give me a hand. >> why? what do you think accounts for that reversal? >> i don't think we like -- collectively americans don't like dealing with this vast bureaucracy which

is known as government. we don't like it. it is stamping on private enterprise, stamping on america's natural entrepreneurial spirit and we don't like it. >> it's gotten bigger too. when you look at the amount the government is spending per household, can you break down these numbers? >> in 2011, spending, you add it up -- federal, state, local spending -- it was $50,000 per household. that was greater than the median household income. can you believe that? that's what we've gotten to. government spending, add it all up and it's higher than median household income per family. >> how is this sustainable? what are we paying down -- this isn't paying interest. >> it is not sustainable because we're growing the debt because we're spending so much. the debt is growing. we're now spending over $6 billion every week on interest payments on our federal government debt. >> meanwhile tax revenues

are almost at an all-time high. we're bringing in a ton of money but spending a ton of money. average per worker is also extremely high. >> that's government spending per worker, is now greater than the average worker's earnings. >> $60,000. >> $60,000 per worker that we're spending. $57,000 what they bring in. >> enough already. all government all the time has not produced prosperity in america. it's not produced growth. that's because we've got a bureaucracy that's stamping on all of us. dare i say it with a british accent, that's un-american. >> a big d.m.v. >> you can hear more about stuart's great analysis on "varney and company" on the fox business network. at what time? >> 11 a.m. eastern. >> and he gets off when he wants. >> not true. >> stuart, thank you. coming up robin williams' family revealing a stunning secret.

robin's sobriety was intact and he was brave as he struggled with his depression, anxiety as well as early signs of parkinson's disease which he was not yet ready to share publicly. that is shocking. joining me now, dr. marc siegel. is it possible that parkinson's disease causes depression? >> definitely an association. as a matter of fact, there is a lot of evidence that over 60% of parkinson's sufferers also have depression and the hormones in the brain are the same. you need dopamine in your brain to be happy. parkinson's depletes dopamine. a lot of people get depression who have parkinson's disease before they get the symptoms of parkinson's. that may have worsened his depression. i think it probably did. he always suffered from depression. it's not surprising that it became more and more severe as he was developing parkinson's. i'll tell you something else. i spoke to a top parkinson's expert last night who said watching him on television in the last year or two, he could see

some of the symptoms in the face. it's called a mask-like face. he could see it developing. >> on his new show -- the crazy ones, and the reports that he started drinking during that period on the show as well, that may be exacerbated it. what causes parkinson's? how did this come on and how was he able to keep it under wraps? >> i don't know how much longer he would have been able to keep it under wraps because some of the symptoms would have afnghted him as a great actor. -- affected him as a great actor. the tremors, shaking, the facial expressions, what he made his livelyhood add being one of the best. it is a disease that affects fine motor function. serotonin is a hormone in the brain affected too. if you take antidepressants, a lot of times patients get better. there can be a dramatic improvement in the depression from taking

antidepressants. >> we know he was dealing with a lot. with these chemicals from parkinson's being limited, he's not getting those hormones he needs to live a happy life, we also heard reports with the heart surgery. and we know a number of people without a doubt can feel enormously depressed and that can cause depression. not only did he have the heart surgery. he was also dealing with parkinson's disease. just a peskt storm of depression. -- a perfect storm of depression. >> any time you have a chronic illness it can increase your depression. the substance abuse issues. there is a great increase in parkinson's and people that use cocaine. the cocaine and alcohol were in the remote past but had a long term effect on him. >> michael j. fox suffers from parkinson's disease. he tweeted this. stunned to learn robin had p.d. a true friend. i wish him peace.

>> you've got to be on the lookout for this. if someone you know is hopeless, no longer feeling pleasure, ask them, ask them about it. we as physicians look for a plan. if someone has a suicidal plan, we get them into treatment immediately. don't be afraid to ask. >> he was talking about this as far back as 2010 in an interview about suicide. some of the signs were there. coming up here on the show, your tax dollars going to the dogs. no, really. the government spending money meant for the less fortunate national on doggy day care. call it a downton oops. can you spot what's wrong with this picture? did they have in in downton times? happy birthday to actor ben affleck. he's 42 today. looking young for a batman. ♪ ♪ ♪

the state department is spending more than $400,000 on razor wire to defend the borders between the ukraine and crimea, part of a multimillion-dollar aid package announced by the white house in april. what do you think about that? your tax dollars going to the dogs. no, really, it actually is. the government spending money meant for the less fortunate on doggy day care and that is just the geng. a new report from senator tom coburn says federal tax credits meant to help out low-income communities are also going to recording studios, breweries and $65,000 sculptures. this seems to be pretty loose rules on what would stimulate those areas. coburn say, quote, when the government picks winners and losers, the losers usually end up being the taxpayers. a fun day at the park is no fun for this veteran. this marine says that six flags, the amusement park, turned him away and his entire family because he was wearing this t-shirt.

"expendable 3" after the second i said there's got to be a third and it finally happened. >> they listened. >> brian, that's why i love you, man, because you have good taste in movies. i grew up on the 1980's

absurd films. i love the over the top cheesy one-liner action movies. that is what the expendables captures. all the fly movies, arnold movies. that is what makes these movies fun. if you're not familiar with the franchise, it is a group of mercenaries hired to take down the baddest of the bad guys. this time around mel gibson plays the bad guy of the film. i wasn't a huge fan of expendables 1 but expendables 2 was amazing. my problem with this one is it is pg-13. it is one of the most violent pg-13 movies i have seen in my life. parents, do not let your kids see this. all they did was -- >> i love when you do that. >> exactly. the violence is still there. again, don't let the pg-13 fool you. trust me on this. this is not for kids whatsoever. i still gave it a 3 out of

5. the action is fun. i loved seeing wesley snipes and mel gibson. i was in los angeles toent view the cast in the movie and. i snuck into the press conference. i got in the seat and said i have to ask these guys a question. check this out. >> if you could take one of your earlier characters and make them an expendable, which one would be the most fun to see joining the group? >> the obvious one is the crazy cop from the lethal weapon series. but maybe that whack job from conspiracy theory. maybe that guy. >> i think "rambo." and then he would turn around and kill them all. >> the down side of working with him. >> he talks a lot and good with words.

>> drago. >> rocky 4. so awesome. >> after that interview you were -- >> great question. >> i wasn't supposed to be there but i went in. >> they seemed okay with it. give us your take on "the giver." >> this is based on a book, sold over 12 million copies. a society where they live e, nomeness. feelings, no emotions, no memories. jeff bridges' character holds all the memories. the problem with the film is even though the

action also grant legal status to millions of undocumented immigrants already living in the country? and how will that sit with voters? according to a new fox news poll, voters are displeased with the president's job performance on immigration. almost 60% of those polled do not approve. and critics call a massive change in policy amnesty, they say it's unfair. political experts say it may be too risky of a shift without congressional approval. >> i do think that if the president were to legalize five million illegal immigrants by fiat, that is a violation of the constitution that would, i think, reach the level of impeachable. nonetheless, it would be insane for republicans to go ahead and to do that. and i think the president might have been calculating this would be impeachment bait. roipt -- >> reporter: we're seeing national guard troops going to the mexican border.

i don't think it's the fault of the guys who own the gun or the fault of the gun manufacturers. this kind of thing tends to happen when there is a mass shooting or some sort of protest activity and people feel unsafe and there is nothing wrong with that and they want to protect themselves. more guns in the hands of people who are not trained to use them doesn't necessarily make people more safe and as we've learned in this incident and many others, even police who are trained for their living to use guns often do make mistakes. >> sure. we're all human. regis, is it shameful that single moms want to protect their kids, according to this gun salesman and just keep them safe? isn't it a constitutional right? >> no, it's absolutely honorable for these women to want to protect their children. if i had crazy rioters running down my neighborhood street, my guns would be locked and loaded and i would do anything to protect my home front and my kids. >> do you think that this here, mark, is an attempt to just slam

the gun industry when in fact it is a riot, it's in the constitution, and if women want to protect their families, so be it? why would this blogger take this angle? >> i don't know. i don't know the blogger well. i think the point she's making is that we have a gun violence problem in this country and the solution to that problem is not more guns in the hands of untrained people. that is what i take away from this, when even police who are trained in the use of guns make mistakes. any expert in the field and any police officer will tell you it doesn't really help to put more guns in the hands of people who aren't trained to use them. the answer to the problem is to keep guns out of the wrong hands in the first place. >> sure. laws are meant to be abided by. but people who break laws are going to break the laws, some would argue. so you have people who are obtaining them illegally in some cases. why would she not take equal aim at rioters and violence here? i understand there is a lot of angst. we're not there, between the police, which seems to be mending and the citizens in

missouri. but why not at least look at what's happening with the violence and the rioters and talk about guns there? >> look, i don't know whether anybody as of today has been killed by any of the rioters. i don't think they have. i think that what you've seen is -- again, you want to think two and three and four times before you get in the face of police and other folks who are trying to keep the peace there. what you've seen is the police department there, using weapons that have been given to them by the department of homeland security to fight terror and essentially taking them into the streets. i think there are questions for people to ask whether that is keeping the peace or making the situation worse. >> stepping up to lead the way in terms of law enforcement are making adjustments. we want to thank you both for being with us. >> thank you. coming up, we showed you this yesterday. >> i'm sick of it! i'm sick of it! i'm not going to say we're going to march the we're gonna do that! i'm gonna tell you, let's

good morning. it is friday, august 15. i'm elisabeth hasselbeck. we begin with a fox news alert. a chance a command and change in tune overnight in missouri. protesters backing down. but what happened today could change all of that. the name of the cop who shot and killed michael brown is about to be announced. is that really safe? and are you frustrated with senseless rioting? so is this guy. >> i'm sick of it! i'm sick of it! i'm not going to tell you and tell you we're gonna march. we're gonna do that! i'm gonna tell you, damn it,

let's change! >> he joins us live in moments for his first interview. the pope is on a world tour, but some simply aren't impressed, like this baby. so what happened here? why is the pope scaring babies? "fox & friends" hour two starts right now. ♪ good vibrations ♪ ♪ . >> soon we'll be able to say the beach boys were on "fox & friends" because the friday concert series will attract the group that has sold over 100 million albums. >> we are more than thrilled. our all american summer concert series kicking off 48th and

6th. beach boys, grilling, a lot of fun outside of our windows here. >> before that -- before that, a fox news alert. developing news overnight out there in ferguson, missouri. today after sort of a quiet night last night, now that the state troopers have come in and highway patrol center taken over jurisdiction there, the police officer who shot michael brown, his name is set to be released to the public today. >> that's right. protests all over the country took place. some more mild than what we saw in missouri right after the highway patrol took over. questions as to why the name of the officer involved in this was not released originally. certainly heart breaking for the family. many people wanting and believing it is their right to know their name. but early injury chief jackson said a name was released originally that was not the officer involved. that was posted.

his facebook was hacked. his personal info was hacked and he received death threats, therefore, they pulled back on the attempt to release the name. but that is all set to change today. >> here is captain johnson. he's somebody who grew up in the area and he thinks he'd like to find truth. >> i grew up here and this is my community and my home. therefore, it means a lot to me personally that we break this cycle of violence, and build trust, showing the utmost respect for every interaction with every citizen. >> governor saying something's got to change. he puts in ron johnson as the new leader and takes authority. one of the things you're going to not see is a lot of police in riot gear and militarization of the police. they're going to be melting back into the suburbs there and trying to stay off the main streets. they said we don't want to have this big police presence which is also we think maybe exacerbating the problem. no gas masks.

we talked about earlier. so you're not going to see as much of a presence there. they'll be around. you're just not going to see them as much. >> he also wanted to aim at really having a partnership with citizens and having that perception really become an actuality. growing up there, having information available to citizens. he said if you need help, please come to me. i'll give you my address. i thought it was one of the most personal addresses to a community. >> that's been a problem. you saw the reporters that got basically booted out of the mcdonald's doing their job, working on their laptops. the cops rush in and tell them to get out of there. and they're asking hey, what's your name? what's your badge number? the police weren't giving it to them. i'm not going to give you my name and badge number. things are about to change. >> the president mate some statements about the cops and what they may or may not have done and one of the people, an nba star in washington, basically went after -- he went after al sharpton, but the

president of the fraternal order of police went back at the president essentially saying stay out of this from your vacation home in martha's vineyard. you don't know what's going on here. gilbert arenas ripped al sharpton and told the black community will you stop inviting him everywhere. he only makes things worse. and you'll never get a jury verdict that you want when he's involved. look at his track record. >> right. eric holder also spoke with the family of michael brown as parents and met with the division of the d. o.j. involved in relations when it comes to relations. apparently they felt better after speaking with eric holder and hopefully some peace in their hearts as things seem to be calming down. once this name is released today and it's set to be done within hours or at any moment, things may change. >> all right. so we'll continue to discuss that. the violence in ferguson, missouri, prompting many to ask for peaceful protests, including our next guest. we told you about him yesterday. you heard from him possibly on line on your own. this has gone viral.

>> we're doing out here is not helping. change is not going to come until we change it. then i hate to say this, but i'm going to tell you what you need to hear as opposed to what you want to hear. all we know how to do is blame the police and white folks for our actions. all we know how to do is march and riot and loot. i'm sick of it! i'm sick of it! i'm not gonna tell you and tell you we're gonna march. we're gonna do this or that. i'm gonna tell you, dam it, let's change! >> joining us is that very man, minister jonathan gentry. thank you for joining us. that is six minutes packed with passion. why did you want everyone to hear what you had to say? >> it's a continual cycle. thank you for having me. it's a constant cycle. it's like we're just going around in circles year after year, decade after decade. accuses, accuse -- excuses, excuses, excuses is all we bring

time and time again. enough. let's take responsibility for what we're doing out here. >> what did you make of al sharpton showing up to town, because a lot of people said, reverend, why don't you go up to chicago? there is killings every weekend in chicago. bring the cameras to chicago and talk about it there. they go into ferguson. what was your response to him showing up? >> gilbert arenas is absolutely right. where were you in chicago on the fourth of july weekend when over 60 drive-by shootings took place? where were you a couple weeks later when 47 shootings took place in chicago? where were you when that woman in oakland lost both of her children three weeks apart? where were you? you only come around when something happens with the police or caucasian. you're not there for the black community, so you need to stop fronting naacp as well! i want to call them out as well. they're good for nothing. all they do is perpetuate hate!

i represent humanity. it's just from my heart. humanity. god came for humanity. enough with our excuses. and this came from -- and let me say this -- this came from the rebellion of the two gentlemen. unfortunately, he lost his life. i understand. let's subtract race and police from the equation. if you two brothers would have just moved to the sidewalk like the officer said, we would not be here. if you would have just moved to the sidewalk and obeyed, we would not be here. 1 samuel 15:23, rebellion is at the sin of witchcraft. this went from stage one, stage two, stage three, here we are, stage five. total chaos. >> you say that you have been pulled over a number of times in your car by an officer. you say the way you handle it is how people should handle it. i listened to your entire rant. what's the difference here? you say we actually need to

change. what if someone believes they are being pulled over because of their race, how are they to handle that? >> i've been pulled over, that's why i mentioned that. i've been pulled over many times, many times. i have a brand-new vehicle. i live in a valley. it's all customized. i've been pulled over. i know how to act when i'm pulled over. that's our problem. you picking on me 'cause i'm black. what you doing that for? it just escalates. humble yourself. the bible says in proverbs 15, verse 1, soft answer turns away wrath. swallow your arrogance. whatever that they got to do, whatever they pulled you over for, if you didn't do nothing, what's the problem? that's our problem today. we're just so uptight about everything. it's sickening. >> jonathan, i can tell you're fed up. what kind of reaction have you gotten? i know you're getting a lot of views. what kind of feedback? >> positive feedback.

of course the black community, oh, you uncle tom. yada. holmes honestly, the only uncle toms i see -- i want to say another word, are the ones burning down your own community. sorry to say. i'm not al sharpton. i'm not naacp. i'm not going to go down there and say we're gonna do this and be okay. no. let's change our ways! >> what would you like to see from the president of the united states? a lot of people think he might have missed an opportunity here to speak directly to the black community. what do you think that the president -- here was the president speaking yesterday from martha's vineyard. i'm going to play the sound bite and get your response. take a listen. >> i know that emotions are raw right now in ferguson and there are certainly passionate differences about what has happened. there are going to be different accounts of how this tragedy occurred. there are going to be differences in terms of what needs to happen going forward. now is the time for healing. now is the time for peace and calm on the streets of ferguson. now is the time for an open and

transparent process to see that justice is done. >> jonathan, your response to that? >> more song and dance. we heard it from trayvon martin. you didn't say nothing in chicago when there was a war zone where you came from. you didn't say anything about that. why this? why this? it's just pr, in my opinion. someone handed him a note and said speak. it's hard for me to swallow. >> everything you're saying, i hear it. i understand. but i'm just thinking about somebody at home right now saying, well, jonathan gentry is giving in. giving in to the fact that there might be racial bias in this country and you just said well, there is, so deal with it and make the best of it. how do you stop the behavior you don't like, being pulled over because possibly you're black, because you have the right answers is one thing. but the fact that you're pulled over, people say is unacceptable >> your question is what?

>> what do you say to people at home who say by answering the questions and getting along, identifying you're pulled over because of race and dealing with it is giving in. >> the problem is our reaction. it's how we respond. it's how we respond. you understand? those two men, mike brown and his friend challenged the police. he told you to move to the sidewalk. you said no. we're going to wait 'til we get to our destination. that's our problem today as african-american males and african-americans. we have just feel like we're constantly challenged. so it's an ego thing. it's just a competition and it doesn't help. someone has to humble themselves. i just realize these officers are doing their job. i understand there are bad cops out there. yes, i understand. but some of these gentlemen

officers, my heart goes out to all of them, they have an extreme stressful job. let them do their job and be on your way. it just takes a couple minutes. swallow your pride! that's the only way we're going to get ahead. >> we want to thank you for being with us here. certainly some will say you had extreme opinions. >> go to our facebook page and weigh in on how you feel that jonathan would handle this and where we should be going with this and where you stand. 13 minutes before the top of the hour. robin williams' family reveal ago stunning secret that the actor had parkinson's disease. does that make his depression even worse? heather childers is here with more. >> by making that shocking announcement just days after he took his own life, here is what she had to say. quote, robin's sobriety was intact and he was brave as he struggled with his own battles of depression and anxiety, as well as early stages of

parkinson's disease, which he was not ready to share publicly. so is there a link between the chronic disease and depression? earlier on "fox & friends," dr. mark siegle said that the two often go hand in hand. >> there is a lot of evidence that over 60% of parkinson sufferers also have depression and the hormones in the brain are the same. you need dopamine in your brain to be happy. parkinson's depletes dopamine. a lot of people get depression before they get symptoms of parkinson's. that may have worsened his depression. i think it probably did. >> robin williams' good friend, michael j. fox, he had no idea that he was battling the disease. fox diagnosed with parkinson's back in 1991. he tweeted this: stunned to learn robin had parkinson's disease. pretty sure his support for our foundation predated his diagnosis. a true friend. i wish him peace. definitely a troubling story. >> sure is.

thank you for sharing all of that with us. now another heather with some big news from the border. heather nauert. >> good morning. today is a very important day in texas. in particular for the national guard. brand-new developments this morning of the the first national guard troops arriving on the texas-mexico border. they are now manning observation posts in the town of hidalgo. their mission is to serve as extra eyes and ears on the border to report suspicious activity. they will be armed, but only for self-defense. governor rick perry calling up a total of 1,000 troops. it's estimated to cost $12 million a month. texas is paid for. but asking the feds to pick up the tab. nascar drivers will start their engines on sunday without tony stewart. he is sitting out the race at the michigan international speedway. jeff burton will fill in for him. it will be the third race that he's skipped since hitting and killing kevin ward, juni annound was laid to rest in upstate new

york yesterday. is nbc news afraid of another ann curry moment? apparently they are. according to a new report out this morning, david gregory, the host of the show, will not be allowed to say good-bye on the air. chuck todd is taking over for him on "meet the press" next month. gregory was allowed to feet out this message and he said, quote, i leave nbc as i came, humbled and grateful. i love journalism and serving as moderator of "meet the press." it was the highest honor there is. a great story for all car lovers. it is the most expensive car ever sold at auction. it is a 1962 ferrari 250 gto and went for $38.1 million. $38.1 million. the roadster is one of 36 made by ferrari. it came in second at the 1962 tour defrance. the price breaking the old record of $31 million for a 1954 mercedes. that's a lot.

interesting fact, if you've ever gotten in a car accident, you know your car loses value. not this one. it was in a car accident years ago and it only added to the value of it. >> i traded my car in and that's when they told me it was hit and i was duped by the previous owner. >> really? >> imagine my outrage. >> you didn't check your car fax report? >> looks like i didn't. >> thanks, heather. coming up on the show, breaking overnight, two girls snatched off the street in broad daylight found. why their culture almost kept police from finding them at all. and then bibles were removed from navy hotels after atheists complained about them. this morning a huge update on this story. ♪ ♪

>> well, right now everyone is safe, sound, reunited with their families. both girls were found yesterday just about 24 hours after they were first reported missing. after talking with police and investigators, they say it's not too often that we have such a happy ending so quickly after they were last seen and possibly abducted. so here is what we know about how they were found. apparently they were dropped off at a stranger's house by a car about 15 miles south of here in richville. they walked up to this person's house and they immediately knew who these girls were. they were still in their amish clothes, which included bonnet and dress. they were then taken from this house to their parents' place, which is just about 15 miles or just a mile from here. and they were reunited with their parents. they had been talking with police and investigators so far to try and get some details as to just who took them, what happened in the time between when they were taken and when they were reunited with their

family. we don't have a lot of details yet from police and investigators about what happened. but they are giving us just a little bit of information, saying that it could be more than one person involved at this point in time. also if you were watching our coverage from wednesday and into thursday, they were interested in a four-door, white sedan that was seen possibly taking these two young amish girls. now they're saying the car that dropped them off might not be the same color. they can't confirm anything for us yet. so a lot of questions still to be answered. it is a great, great feeling here that this family has their kids back together. a lot of relief. but now they want to focus on catching the people who took them. >> david, obviously the amish culture separate from the local culture there. has that hampered the investigation in any capacity? >> reporter: police say that the family has been nothing but gracious and working with them. they did say that there are a

few more privacy issues. of course, there are also no pictures. so when they were still looking for the girls, all we had at that point in time to try to identify them was a sketch of 12-year-old girl. in the end, we didn't really need it because they were dropped off. but again, police are saying that everything is working out just fine in terms of talking with the family and getting answers as to what happened over the last 24 hours. >> fascinating. >> details continue to pour in on this. a sigh of relief that they are safe back home. david hodges, thank you so much for that update. >> no digital cameras. sketches really is all that you have. coming up straight ahead. >> she ordered a glass of ice tea and now fighting for her life? what in the world happened inside this restaurant is absolutely horrifying. >> and not everyone is impressed with the pope. for example, this child. the story behind that picture

>> maybe they were happy tears. she was overwhelmed with joy is the theory i'm going to go with. >> sometimes you don't want to be blessed. >> we have someone that we can actually ask about that. father jonathan morris is going to join us right now. did you see the photo and i believe they're tears of joy. >> those are not tears of joy. no. very, very kind of you. i'm with brian. those are not tears of joy. >> father, if you bless children and have they broken into tears? >> are you speaking because god is on your side? >> yes. >> don't push me, brian. no, i'm not going to admit it, no. >> okay, fine. all father jonathan's blessings yield smiles. let's talk about something serious. i want to get your perception about what the pope actually said and what he's doing in terms of supporting or not supporting action against the extermination of christians in the middle east and really prompting our action. >> it was stunning, in my

opinion what the pope has done. he was calling for humanitarian action over and over again. nobody was listening. our president was not talking about it. dating back over a month, saying there is a crisis on our hands. but then a few days ago issues he sent out a tweet that said the international community has a responsibility -- and listen to this -- to protect the religious minorities. now, how do you protect against terrorists who are there trying to kill you? obviously military force sometimes is necessary. that's not a departure from catholic or christian doctrine. if somebody breaks into your home with a gun, you use whatever amount of force is necessary to stop them. hopefully not having to kill them, but sometimes it seems like you have to do it. and then the representative, the ambassador of the vatican to the u.n. is calling on international community to act! how do you act against terrorists? again, i think it's a stunning

application of an age-old policy. >> quite a shift, if you look back to where we were in iraq and vatican stance's in 2003 to 2013, this is not the position that was taken. so help us understand when just war is just and when it's not, because this is an extreme shift in messaging. >> you know, it's extreme different situation. actually what the vatican said, which john paul ii said was don't go into iraq. why? because even though there is a very bad guy there and very bad stuff going on, the possibility for a positive outcome, which is one of the elements of a just car theory, that there has to be some sort of possibility for success or great degree of success, just isn't there. but right now what pope francis is saying is we have an intruder. we have a terrorist who is about to take people's lives and we have responsibility to do something. i think it's just a very

different situation, elisabeth. but it's a great question. >> father, wasn't also the pope, it seems filling a vacuum, where there was sort of quiet? >> absolutely. we've heard from persecuted christians who have been sitting here on our set saying look, we're having to turn to the vatican. we're having to turn to europe to take action in iraq. where is the united states? >> you know what? to suggest that the united states didn't have the data, the information about what was going on, to suggest oh, my gosh, isis is now moving faster than we ever thought, i mean, if they had just listened to the pope or other religious leaders, or people on the ground who were saying actually, there are people being beheaded! there are tens of thousands of christians who are being sent out of nineveh, the very home land of christianity. if they had only been listening to very common knowledge, the president would not be able to say we got caught offguard.

unbelievable. >> father jonathan, the days this is happening as you know in syria as well with the coptic christians, but how do you feel about the days of christians in? >> oh, that's a real problem. it's a real possibility. the fact -- imagine a middle east with no diversity whatsoever. is that possible? unfortunately it is possible. you know what, brian, i think something really important to keep in mind, the pope wasn't saying, hey, go and do a couple of air strikes and show that you're tough. no. have an objective. have a principle or a strategy of governance and if that says that genocide is actually not within the american interest, well then you're going to have to not just drop a few bombs, but actually say how are we going to stop these religious minorities from being completely cleansed, completely wiped out of iraq? >> father jonathan, we thank you for being with us. >> sorry i'm so fired up, but this is serious stuff. >> the vatican is calling for

military action. i think that's important. and it is serious stuff. thanks so much. >> thank you. let's get it over to heather nauert with another major win in the fight for faith. >> good morning. father jonathan was a perfect jumping off point for this story. there is a major victory for religious freedom in our country. the navy now says that the bible is going back into every hotel room on its military bases. earlier this week you may recall the story that we covered. atheists had complained and they were able to get the bibles removed from these hotels. but the navy now says the decision to get rid of them was made without consulting its senior leadership. so now headed back in. a woman ordered a glass of iced tea at a restaurant and now she's fighting for her life this morning. 67-year-old jan harding and her husband were at dickey's barbecue pit in utah. the woman's attorney says after taking one sip of her ice tea, she knew that something was wrong. >> first words to her husband, she turned to him and said, i

think i just drank acid. >> boy. okay. jan actually drank the chemical lye. that's used to clean cooking equipment. an employee apparently confused the chemical with sugar. jan is now in critical condition. oh, my. and talk about a really wrong turn. look at this. that coming out of janesville, wisconsin. an suv slamming into a bus at an intersection in wisconsin. the bus driver made a hard turn and that caused her seatbelt to rip. she fell to the floor. the bus then slamd into that building. no one was inside. as for the driver, she is okay. thank goodness for that. how frightening. take a look at this. this is also a frightening story. it is a moment that a crocodile decides a lone swimmer wash a really tasty meal. look at that. this happened in mexico. the croc takes chase while the

guy swims as fast as he can to get to shore. people watched on in horror until someone throws something at the crocodile. that apparently distracts him and stops him in his tracks. and those are your headlines. i cannot even imagine. hoofer phiing. >> it's like a cartoon. >> those are the kind of waters maria molina grew up in in miami. >> crocodile, al gators. we have a good crowd for the beach boys. before we listen to good music, we do want to give you the weather conditions across the country. i want to start here across the northeast because temperatures are below average. a little on the chilly side early this morning. we're in the 60s and 50s across a widespread area in the northeast. the high temperatures will be below average, in the 70s. low humidity. a lot of sunshine. going to be a beautiful day. farther west across portions of the plains, we do have hot temperatures. 90s and triple digits.

feeling very much like summer out there across the plains. an issue across portions of the plains is going to be a storm system exiting the rockies. it's been producing a lot of flash flooding over the last couple of days across portions of arizona and even across parts of the desert southwest. that storm now could bring flash flooding to portions of the northern plains. we do have watches in effect and coming up this weekend, we'll be watching out for possible severe weather across the center of the country. let's head back inside. >> thank you very much. again, that was amazing video. but i was amazed also that crocodiles are so easily distracted. >> they are. you chuck a snack and run the other way or swim. >> like a dog in a park when a squirrel goes by. >> that's it. you don't exist. as if we just found squirrels, like we're out of them. coming up straight ahead, your confidential information exposed by the irs. what you need to know next 'cause everyone knows your stuff. plus the beach boys here live. we're going to head out to the stage to hang with the musical legends.

fox news alert. exploded on i-65 in tennessee, shutting down the highway. the truck hit an overpass headed south. it was carrying gasoline and went up in flames, killing one person. witnesses said they heard a large boom and they saw a fire ball light up the sky.

emergency engineers are keeping an eye on the overpass bridge, saying it may now also be in danger of collapsing. clayton? thank you. missouri police prepare to announce the name of the cop who shot and killed the unarmed teen, michael brown today. president obama again jumping into the controversy from martha's vineyard. >> i know many americans have been deeply disturbed by the images we've seen in the heartland of our country as police have clashed with people protesting. there is also no excuse for police to use excessive force against peaceful protests or to throw protesters in jail for lawfully exercising their first amendment rights. >> did the president go too far in choosing sides? here is fox news legal analyst, peter johnson, jr. there is a parallel, a couple of investigations unfolding. the f.b.i., the department of -- did the president jump in too quickly? >> i don't know if he jumped in too quickly. he may have chosen a side too quickly with regard to this

issue of excessive force and with regard to the police being forceful. like a lot of americans, we expect the president to invoke the rule of law. to invoke reason. he did to some extent. if you look at the shadings in his statements, he's clearly made a statement that the police were acting in an excessive way, violating rights not only of protesters, bers on the scene. so when you do so, you set a scene and you set an atmosphere, unfortunately i think, for continued discord and possibly violence in such a community. >> so you may disagree with him. there are some republican senators, including rand paul, who came out saying that the militarization of our police force is troubling to him as a republican, as a libertarian and saying he's troubled by the news stories of reporters being thrown out of mcdonald's with swat teams coming in when he was a little kid, that you were expected to get in trouble -- >> i don't know the circumstances in terms of the reporters being asked to be moved from the mcdonald's.

so the police are wrong, then they should be held to account. but the greater issue that needs to be examined is is there respect for the rule of law? is there an equivalency between police and rioters in terms of their conduct? and can we accept the notion that you can hold peace hostage for the notion of selective justice? we don't know the truth as to what happened in ferguson. we don't know whether this was a racist assassinned police officer or whether this was an 18-year-old, 6' 4, 250-pound man that was trying to take the police officer's gun away. the president may have a good idea based upon what attorney general holder has told him. but we don't know as americans and people in ferguson don't know. but whatever the circumstances are, i expect and a lot of americans expect from the president a call for reason and a call for rule of law. he did to some extent. but we have to understand that there also has to be a strong

robust statement that you can not equate peace and justice and hold one hostage for the other. the other issue is this is a huge, huge distraction. the militarization of the police, police tactics, police conduct. the underlying problem in ferguson is that the president has failed to create employment for african-americans in this community. >> plaque youth -- black youth unemployment at an all time high. >> twice the right race. 24% in the black community. it's double the same in the larger adult community. the president needs to come to terms with his failure on creating jobs for the african-american community. this is a tragic circumstance. we grieve for the brown family. we grieve for the police officer involved in this conflict. but we do have to come together and we have to come together based on reason and the rule of law, but also let's create jobs

for those folks in that community and let's not blame the police for the failures of an administration and not delivering its economic plans or integrating the african-american community into those plans. that's a harsh, harsh failure and unfortunately, we're reaping the whirlwind today in ferguson. >> peter johnson, jr., who is going to be with us on this network as we get the name of the police officer who shot and killed michael brown. that is set to be released here. so keep it here to fox news channel throughout the day for developing news out of ferguson. great to see you. >> see new a bit. coming up, the president had a very busy day yesterday. did you hear he declared victory in iraq. geraldo rivera on that story at the top of the hour. hillary clinton hugged it out with president obama. >> great to be back in the vineyard. >> hugging it out with the president? >> absolutely! >> but don't get the wrong idea. hillary clinton is about to take

this morning www.foxandfriends.com/concert. >> this is the song that changed their lives. >> this is from 1963. i was at the maritime college in the bronks. i was going to have a military career. that song came out. i said to my friend, frankie, out on long island, come on, we're going. we got into the old chevy and hit route 66 and went to california and my whole life changed because of the beach boys. the rest is history. >> is that how beautiful it is in california? >> and california girls came right after that. with all due respect to the east coast. >> if it was the beatles, you would end up in london? >> the beatles is why i got long hair. i was very easily influenced. and then dylan, i became a dope smoker. >> your parents should have taken your radio away. >> we want to get your take on the news that's unfolding because in a short amount of time, the police in ferguson,

missouri, are going to release the name of the officer who shot michael brown. the community there have been asking for the name. the family have been asking for the name. attorney general eric holder apparently spoke with the michael brown family. what do you think about the releasing of the name this late? >> i think it was inevitable. it happens in all criminal proceedings. once security was in place and the officer and cops take care of their own magnificently, there is no doubt about that. i think they could have done it even earlier, maybe to quell some of the violence. although a lot of the violence i think at some point took on a life of its own. >> no kidding. >> and was largely being driven, i think, by looters and rioters and people disconnected from the initial outrage they had over the death of the young man, of michael brown. that is appalling. there is a lot of things to say about this case. >> what do you think about the appointment there of the highway patrol, captain johnson? >> fantastic. >> he seemed to have a real

control over the tone moving forward. your thoughts? >> it was a scene when i left iraq in 2011, when i saw fields of military vehicles. and i said to myself and i said to others, what's going to happen with all this surplus hardware? now you see that much of it has gone to these mid-size towns where the chances of them having to use one of these giant armored cars is really pretty scant. there has been a militarization of the cops. i think a is absolutely true. and the police took the occasion, the rioters are at fault and the people in the streets, the anarchists and those who wanted to steal sneakers and stuff like that, i mean, i blame them. but the cops overreacted in this military fashion with totally tricked out, as if they were going up against isis and not some civilians. >> when the floods happened two years ago, that's the thing that saved so many people out of their house. they had these huge humvees because of national catastrophe. so i like the fact we used some

of this stuff. >> you must be alarmed as well at the instinct, immediately to jump into okay, let's get all dressed up. it's almost like they're play acting. they're not truly -- they're not military. they're cops. >> i don't know what it takes to survive a riot. >> but this new appointment, though, with captain johnson here -- >> i'm sorry, elisabeth. i missed your main point. >> to your point, it was the visual of those tankers and what was going on in terms of violence seems to be shifting in terms of the approach that the police will take. >> look at this man, this measured man, this economy man, this confident man, calming everything. it followed the president's statements. you can fault the president, you know, perhaps in emesis. i don't particularly. but i really do believe this was the right man, the state trooper was the right man at the right time. maybe two or three days late, but i really do think that we

have to rethink. now the editorial page, i've just come from the west coast are filled with this second guessing on whether or not the police department truly need the heavy duty military equipment, which -- when you dress up as a special operator or as a combat troop, that's a mindset. i'm sorry. that's a head that you have and you take into a situation, it's no longer a cop and civilian. it's soldier and enemy. i think that's a disaster. >> senator rand paul agrees with you. >> he's spot on. >> but also, there is another issue at play here which is the race issue. we had jonathan gentry on earlier this morning. i don't know if you saw his video earlier in the week. he put out a video just saying stop the madness. we've got to stop this looting. it's senseless. his video went viral. we had him on the show this morning to address that issue and al sharpton showing up in

the community. listen to him. >> the problem is it's our reaction. it's how we respond. it's how we respond. you understand? those two men, mike brown and his friend, challenged the police. he told you to move to the sidewalk. you said no. we're gonna wait 'til we get to our destination. that's our problem today as african-american males and african-americans. we just feel like we're constantly challenged, so it's an ego thing. it's just a competition and it doesn't help. someone has to humble themselves. >> he went on to say, we've got to stop blaming white people for our problems. we've got to stand up together as a black community and stop the black on black violence in this community. what do you say? >> i say that obviously there is a root cause here. it is the disintegration of the family, the lack of dads at home. put that aside just for a second, i have instructed my sons particularly, now they're ones in his 20s and the other in

his 30s. when they were teen-agers, when you're confronted by a cop, what do you do? you say yes, sir. no, sir. that's it. if you have a beef with the officer, you resolve that later on when there is no temperature, there is no possibility of something going disastrously wrong. there is nothing good that comes from confronting a cop. when two guys, two teen-agers, i don't know really about michael brown's background or this buddy of his. but if the police accounts are true, that the cop was wounded, you know, his face was swollen after getting hit. the kid trying to get his gun, whatever. i don't know that. that will be resolved in a court of law after due process is given both to the officer who is being named today and to the family of the poor teen-ager, of the unfortunate teen-ager who passed away. that will be resolved. but for goodness sake, if you're confronted by a cop. that's what you do. you say yes, sir. no, sir. even if you're steaming inside. and i've been in that situation a million times.

that guy is spot op. >> i want to bring up something else. the president made some comments about how the police acted as he ascertained and he came forward and made them yesterday and he got a response from jim pasco from the fraternal order of police. i will contend discussing the police tactics from martha's vineyard is not helpful to calming the situation. i think what he has to do as a president and as a constitutional lawyer is remember that there is a process in the united states. >> i think the minor issue is that martha's vineyard gets a bad rap because it's an upscale resort. if he had said the yacht club where you and i have been spotted before -- >> i would have been outraged. >> he was alluding to the president's notion that police shouldn't bully civilians. he made some sort of statement there. >> i think in fairness to the president, maybe i would have had the sentences rearranged. i thought he tried his best to do a measured presentation. he started with the urban violence and the fact there is no excuse for rioting and looting. i think that he could have added

a little more emphasis to that and then segwayed into his other important points and i do believe that -- give the president credit where credit is due -- i i that is what led to the appointment of the state trooper which is what led to the conciliation or the tone changing. i think now the people of ferguson, missouri would look askance at those trouble makers from out of the community who have come there to really make anarchy and to loot. >> let's talk about iraq. the president came out and he said, i sent some people up there. it looks like crisis averted. here is what he said yesterday from martha's vineyard. >> bottom line is that the situation on the mountain has greatly improved and americans should be very proud of our efforts because the skill and professionalism of our military and the generosity of our people. we broke the isil siege of mount sinjar. >> not everyone agrees with that, though. a lot of people saying there is still people trapped there,

thousands still trapped there. no one is discounting the brave men and women who went in to actually rescue these people. >> in fact, i have a quote. it says it's not true. it's better now, sure. especially in the south side of the mountain. the situation is very terrible. there is still people there not getting any aid at all. there are 80,000 trapped on the southern flank of mount sinjar. >> this coming from a member of parliament and the azidi leader who was hurt attempt to go rescue. >> the mountain is not really the issue right now. i think that the -- >> they -- >> the urgency of the mountain is what was the catalyst for this action, but i have been saying for weeks and months the enemy, isis, is an exist tension threat to the united states of america. we had to pound these people two months, three months ago. i appreciate the tactical nature of the offensive against those besieging these poor people on the mountain, but for goodness sake, why the united states

military doesn't use its superb air power to pound an enemy that threatens not only the stability of iraq and is carving it up, but it is absolutely a threat to the region, to israel, to the suez canal, we have to get them. >> isis is getting a regular economy. >> they've looted the banks. >> they have a sustaining economy. they can start using that oil and on the black market -- >> and they have our military capability. >> we have to identify isis as our enemy. >> i absolutely agree. al-qaeda now, it speaks volumes to suggest as many analysts do that al-qaeda is a relatively moderate organization when compared to isis, a group that cuts off hands and cuts off heads and rapes women who are not sunnies and takes the children and we have to pound them really. we have to pound them all the way and go right across the border from iraq into syria.

we have common cause now with the iranians and i bite my tongue when i say it, but the dictator of syria is on the same side as we are. >> and these pictures that they've been taunting the united states with. >> i saw that. it really irked me. >> these are isis photos that have taken to twitter where they captured u.s. military munitions, guns. >> i want to blow up that weapon in that guy's hand. that guy is a canadian, they call him, that released these twitter shots. i want to pound him. i want him gone. he is an enemy of the united states. if he gets back into north america, he's going to cause all kinds of havoc. >> they did a private briefing yesterday, almost all of the higher ups in isis were in u.s. custody at one point. so they're schooled. they're angry, and they said despite the fact that they're focusing here, all eyes still point to us and a lot of these people have left back to form cells in their own countries.

>> being highly recruited there and they can offer them a great amount. do you think the president's taking this seriously? >> i can't read the president's mind, but i can say again with great emphasis and i feel this from my experience in the field and in my heart, we have to take these people absolutely seriously. if we went to war against afghanistan to get rid of the taliban because they harbored al-qaeda in a little remote corner of south asia, my goodness, we have to fight these people, far more vicious, much more sophisticated. they now have money and arms. this is really a threat to us and i think that regardless of what happens in baghdad, we have to make war on isis. >> and baghdad now has a new prime minister. >> good. about time. >> can you imagine if we focused on that earlier in the political process how much better off iraq would be 'cause when we wanted to put our mind to it, we effected change. always great to have you on. >> great to be here. >> thank you.

the big birthday party took place or did not take place to make amends before they would sit at the same table at that party? >> there were no amends and if there was a phone call, it certainly wasn't an apology. it wasn't an excuse because what hillary said about obama, that don't do stupid stuff is not a strategy and that if he had taken early action in syria, things wouldn't be in the condition it is today. she had absolutely no intention of retracting any of that. >> so at least the words came out that they made amends, cleared everything up. then they sat at the same table at the party. how did that go? >> my sources tell me that what happened there at the party is that instead of it being a hugathon, it became a freezeathon and the clintons and and -- the clintons essentially ignored the obamas and the obamas got up from the table and danced almost the entire night in order to avoid having to talk

to the clintons. what i'm trying to say in a sense is that what happened there in the vineyard is ripped from the pages of my book "blood feud" because the blood feud continues. >> do you look for this to heat up or die down, because the down side to a politician like hillary clinton is she loses the obama supporters. >> but behind all this is months and months of bill clinton putting together with his advisors in little rock, a series of policy books for hillary clinton and in these policy books, he makes distinctions between her positions and obama's positions and it was bill clinton who came up with the idea of knocking obama's don't do stupid stuff because he saw that as a real shortcoming of the obama policy.

>> overall, simplifying way too much is something that needs sophistication. and it's the economy, stupid, and that seemed to work. syria, they differ. iran, dubious on the talks. that will be the next big story. when she references israel, she talks about israel not to speak to hamas. i thought it was interesting, could this be a hit back from obama when he said my biggest mistake essentially, the libya action, was from hillary clinton's urging. >> this gets to the whole dance hillary is trying to do right now. secretary of state for four years, never really made any distinction between her policies and the obama policies while she was in the administration. now she's trying to separate herself. and at the same time not lose the obama base, which is so very pro-obama. so she's trying to make it clear that while she was secretary of state, she had very different opinions than obama, but wasn't

disloyal while she was in the administration. >> so the meeting, the party, icy. >> very icy. >> criticism will continue? >> criticism is just beginning. >> ed klein, thanks so much. congratulations on the success of "blood feud." >> thank you. three minutes before the bottom of the hour. coming up, a day of fun at the park was no fun for this veteran. he says six flags turned away his entire family because of that shirt. then your tax dollars going to the dogs. really? the government spending money on doggy daycare. i'm outraged. so i'm going to feel better by going out to the beach boys. they promised to sing "kokomo." ♪ i want to take you to bermuda, bahama ♪ ♪ come on pretty mama ♪ key largo, montego ♪ why don't we go down to kokomo

[woman] that's good. i know right? gevalia. ♪ ♪ >> that's the jay giles what happened. can you tell what doesn't belong in that picture? the show "downton abbey" released this promotional picture for its fifth season. look over there. it turns out someone forgot to remove the plastic water bottle on the shelf behind the two actors. the last time we get interns for the series. the season is set in the late 30s. plastic bottles were not sold until the 1960s. >> they were drinking out of the tap back then. >> and wells. >> and wheel the bucket down. >> is that what you did? >> that's how i did it.

>> i've never seen it. that's why i called it downtown abbey and everybody killed me. for years. >> it's fantastic. >> the water bottle in the shot? >> i don't need to be entertained. there is too much to learn. >> let's check in with heather nauert. you can pay attention and learn during this. >> perfect for me. >> the other day somebody left a dirty yogurt container right over there. >> it was in your shot. >> yeah. good thing we had somebody clean that up. >> chris chulo. >> probably was his. >> i left my tupperware back there. i've got headlines to bring you. your tax dollars are going to the dogs literally. there is a new report out from senator tom coburn and it says that federal government tax credits that were meant to help out low income communities are now being used for all kinds of crazy stuff, including this. a $40 million aquarium in atlanta. a $65,000 sculpture in california. almost $2 million for a dog

rehab and grooming center in new orleans. coburn saying, quote, when government picks winners and losers, the losers usually end up being you, the taxpayer. a day at the park certainly no fun for this veteran. this marine says six flags turned him and his entire family away from the park because he was wearing this t-shirt. the shirt supports the marines and it has a red, white and blue rifle on it with the words, keep calm and return fire. the worker said it would offend people. what do you think of that? a major victory to tell you about for religious freedom in the united states. the navy now says that the bible is going back into every hotel room on its military bases. you may remember earlier this week we told you about this, atheists had complained that bibles were in these rooms, so they were able to get the bibles removed from those rooms on bases. but the navy says that decision to get rid of them was made without consulting senior leadership in the navy.

finally, he might have looked good, but it turned out to be one ugly mistake. we are talking about this guy, the skinny french track runner. he scripped off his -- stripped off his shirt before he crossed the finish line. officials say he acted arrogantly and disrespected the other runners. his teammate ended up getting the gold medal in place of him. >> he was overheating. that's all. >> i guess so. >> perhaps not. >> that sport is desperate for personality and they actually find the one that shows some. >> thank you, heather. 24 minutes before the top of the hour. just a few years ago, west palm beach, atlanta, and phoenix were all on the top list of the ten worst housing markets. so if you're hunting for homes in these cities, is it still possible to find a good deal? joining us now is real estate expert and best selling author of "find it, fix it, flip it," michael corbett. nice to see you this morning.

>> good morning. yes, you're absolutely right. those cities were on the list of some of the hardest hit cities in america and now they've rebounded quite a bit. so we're going to take a look at some houses and see what you can still get in those cities now. >> yeah. atlanta bounced back and i know talking to some investor friends who do a lot of real estate stuff, atlanta was surprising, 'cause a big turn around. what can we expect in atlanta these days? >> yeah. according to trulia's trends report, atlanta is up 14% over last year. so let's take a look at this house. this one is a great value for your money. $300,000. this is a beautiful home. three bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, about 2500 square feet. it's two story, hardwood floors throughout. big open floor plan. it's got a galley kitchen with granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and the good news is -- i'm giving you a little advance jump on this -- because it doesn't come on the market until monday.

so everybody listening can get a real jump on it. >> off market pocket deal from michael corbett. >> good news for someone from cnn who could be seeing our show. >> what's hot in phoenix, arizona? >> this one, another really great house. this one is actually a little bigger. phoenix is up 5.6%. this is a four bedroom, 3 1/2 baths, about 2300 square feet. this one's got a two story living room with a big wrap around balcony, lots of windows. the downstairs actually has a master that can convert into a mother-in-law suite, which is really useful. it's got a kitchen with granite counter tops, open floor plan, big dining room, great room, and the backyard on this is enormous. it's got a huge entertaining backyard that's got a built-in barbecue fire pit, beautiful mountain view. >> you can raise buffalo there. >> they've got a father-in-law fire pit. >> it's got a niece bedroom. real quick, is it trending in

the right direction, though? i know where they're at now, but do you like where it's trending? >> absolutely. what we're seeing is a bit of a slow down in these big jumps which is actually very healthy for the market. you want to see a nice, slow increase in value. and that's what's beginning to happen now. so there are still great deals out there. but it's really wonderful that the market is starting to stabilize. >> you talk to folks here in the real estate area in new york, they're going to florida to find great deals, and west palm beach is a spot they're heading. what can folks expect down there? >> this one, west palm beach, we've seen about a 13% increase over last year. this one is three bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths. very stately. great front curb appeal. big long driveway. about 2600 square feet. this one has got a wonderful sort of big living room, loft style. all the rooms open up to the outside. a kitchen that's got granite counter tops and stainless steel, plus a completely

enclosed wonderful screened in swimming pool. and the price on this, 20% down, taxes and insurance, is going to cost you around $1,300 a month. >> wow. >> then you're a stone's throw from donald trump. >> right. i'm sure he loves us in the neighborhood. >> right. >> great to see you this morning. thanks, michael. >> thanks. you, too. coming up, the f.b.i. spying on americans. not because they did something wrong. because of a typo. >> there is a good reason. first more from the beach boys. this is "california girls". ♪ farmers daughters really make you feel all right ♪ ♪ and the northern girls with the way they kiss ♪ ♪ they keep their boyfriends warm at night ♪ ♪ i wish they all could be california girls ♪ ♪ i wish they all could be

quick headlines now. the f.b.i. may have spied on you, not because you did something wrong, but because of a typo. that according to the doj, they mistakenly targeted americans for wire tapping because of wrongly typed phone numbers, e-mails, social security numbers. the f.b.i. says it's improving its practices in the wake of the report. >> you feel confident? >> i feel so much better now. the irs failed to vet contractors with access to taxpayers' private information and the information could be at risk. an internal audit showed 1.4 million taxpayers names, addresses and social security numbers are at risk of fraud and identity theft. uplifting story. brand-new developments this morning on the immigration battle. the first national guard troops just arrived on the texas-mexico border. >> this has republicans gear up

for the likelihood the president will use executive action on immigration in the next few weeks. >> elizabeth prann is all over this story and is in washington. do you expect big news to come out this weekend as the president comes back? >> reporter: the only note we've heard from the white house is that it would be before summer ends. there is no guarantee it will happen on monday when he's back at the white house. but like you said, the president is expected and he has said as much to enact policy to deal with the crisis of unaccompanied minors, flooding the southern border. would he propose a legally binding executive order to grant legal status to millions of undocumented immigrants who are already here? and how would that sit with voters? a new fox news poll shows a majority would rather see congress move on reform. 65% of those polled would pick immigration reform that includes a pathway to citizenship over no congressional action at all. that is if those were the only two options. critics call a massive change in policy by the president alone unfair and they call it amnesty. and some political experts say ahead of a midterm election,

that would be too lawmakers' approval. >> i do think that if the president were to legalize 5 million illegal immigrants by fiat, that is a violation of the constitution that would i think reach the level of impeachable. none the less, it would be insane for republicans to go ahead and to do that. and i think the president might have been calculating that this would be impeachment bait. >> reporter: this while we're seeing the first wave of national guard troops taking up posts along the border after governor rick perry requested 1,000 troops for eyes and ears on the front lines. state officials say the deployment mission could cost approximately $12 million per month. clayton, elisabeth, brian, back to you. >> thank you so much. fox news alert. because we are awaiting a press conference. we've been reporting all morning long that ferguson police out there in ferguson, missouri, were going to release the name

of the police officer involved in the deadly shooting of michael brown. we now know a press conference will be held at 9 a.m. >> earlier than we originally thought. so we will bring you all of the details as that rolls on. >> so the name is going to be out there. the security should be in place. it doesn't mean any charges will be announced. there could be something else going on there. but at 9:00 o'clock, we're going to carry it live as the latest from ferguson. after i'm happy to say, there were protests overnight, but no violence. >> we have a changing of the guard if you're just waking up. we had a changing of the guard, ron johnson in charge from the highway patrol in charge of what's going on out there, a quieter presence. he says, the mayor, maybe at that press conference, it will be interesting to see if it's ron johnson or the mayor. but the former chief out, not involved in the investigation. >> we know they did want security in place tightly before they do release the name set to, we're anticipating, come to you

just about 9 a.m. >> if you're watching on line, segueway to the cable network because the beach boys big performance is underway. you don't want to miss a minute of it. but first as you see, we provided the beach balls. let's check in with martha mccallum who has been working 24 hours, as megyn kelly, as well as yourself. you heard about the press conference at the top of the hour. >> yeah. thanks. good morning to you. so we will have that press conference for you live here on "america's newsroom." as you have pointed out, they are reportedly going to release the name of the officer who was involved in this. what will that unleash, is the big question as they try to keep things calm. we're going to talk to the lieutenant governor in missouri. and isis has $2 billion in capitol and control over oil fields. jack keane on where all that is going. we'll see you at the top of the hour. [ female announcer ] hands were made for talking.

feet...tiptoeing. better things than the pain, stiffness, and joint damage of moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. before you and your rheumatologist decide on a biologic, ask if xeljanz is right for you. xeljanz (tofacitinib) is a small pill, not an injection or infusion, for adults with moderate to severe ra for whom methotrexate did not work well. xeljanz can relieve ra symptoms, and help stop further joint damage. xeljanz can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers have happened in patients taking xeljanz. don't start xeljanz if you have any infection, unless ok with your doctor. tears in the stomach or intestines, low blood cell counts and higher liver tests and cholesterol levels have happened. your doctor should perform blood tests before you start and while taking xeljanz and routinely check certain liver tests.

tell your doctor if you have been to a region where fungal infections are common, and if you have had tb, hepatitis b or c, or are prone to infections. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take. one pill, twice daily, xeljanz can reduce ra pain and help stop further joint damage, even without methotrexate. ask about xeljanz.
