>> frank writes what happens at home stays at home unless it is endangering the children. >> thanks to everyone who responded. great comments. let's keep talking about the midterms. what is the outcome you're hoping for? head to our facebook now. "fox & friends" starts now. bye. >> hello and good morning. it is wednesday, the 29th of october, 2014. i'm anna kooiman in for elisabeth hasselbeck. a fox news alert. a nasa rocket heading to outer space explodes. >> that main engine is at 108%. >> now the big question: how did this happen? a live report with the breaking details straight ahead. >> then with less than a week before americans head to the polls to vote, the president rallies for a democratic candidate, but so much for drumming up a lot of support.

as soon as the president started talking, people started leaving. again. wow. >> meanwhile, we thought wendy davis couldn't stoop any lower than this. >> a tree fell on greg abbott. he sued and got millions. since then he spent his career working against other victims. >> now her political supporters proving they can sink even lower. we have the tape. i don't know; mornings are better with friends. >> it's time for "fox & friends." >> welcome aboard, folks. live from studio e. it will be one week from right now that we will be doing the post game show to the election. we should know whether or not the republicans take control of the u.s. senate. >> we should. unless the run-off, there is a run-off and the run-off delays us until january. a lot of people are

predicting republicans are beginning to pull away, so we'll see what happens. >> we'll get to more election coverage in a bit but right now a fox news alert. six seconds after liftoff, a nasa rocket explodes. >> oh god! oh god! oh god! oh god! [inaudible] >> going to be loud! >> this morning nasa trying to figure out what went wrong. peter doocy is live in washington, d.c. with the latest. good morning, peter. >> good morning, anna. this rocket was supposed to take supplies to the international space station 260 miles above the earth but barely made it off the ground. just after 6:22 p.m. down in wallop island, virginia, the 14-story tall rocket lifted off but quickly crashed back to earth setting more than 5,000 pounds of equipment, food and experiments on fire and scattering it all over the launch pad.

look at that, a $200 million rocket gone in about 20 seconds. luckily nobody was on board, nobody on the ground was hurt, and we're told that up in space astronauts aren't going to run out of stuff any time soon. >> as a program, of course we manage the station to protect for just such an event should it occur, so, therefore, we keep logistics on board the i.s.s. to protect us for about four to six months in the event that other logistics vehicles can't make it to i.s.s. >> the doomed rocket was owned by a private company called orbital scientists based in dulles, virginia. they are one of two companies nasa hired on an almost $2 billion contract to bring eight cargo loads up into space. last nate was launch number three, and so far nobody is saying what went wrong but investigators are warning people in the area that there were hazardous

materials on this rocket. so anybody who finds a piece of it on their farm or on the beach and wants a souvenir might want to think again. >> don't touch it. peter doocy live in d.c., thank you. >> heather nauert, do you have any other stories you'd like to handle? >> i certainly do. good morning everyone. hope you're off to a great day. overnight developing the feds are increasing security at federal buildings across the united states over fears that terrorists are planning to murder innocent americans. this is no specific threat at this time that we're told but sources say that terrorists hope to inspire lone-style wolf attacks. a new warning covers government buildings and government installations. >> you could argue this is a half-measure that there should be a more general raising of the alert. after all, these events are frightening. >> officials say they can't point to any specific threat for the latest alert. new information

overnight. you know the father we told you about who vanished from a denver broncos game? good news, he has been found safe and sound. he was picked up outside a furniture store in pueblo, colorado. police are not saying yet where he's been for nearly a week. he disappeared from mile high stadium during half time last thursday. the 53-year-old had no phone, no car and about $50 in his pocket. glad that he is home now. the man in charge of investigating the secret service prostitution scandal is now accused of paying a prostitute himself. sherrifs in broward county, florida, spotted david neeland at a building they had under surveillance and theyent viewed a prostitute who said he paid for her services. neeland denied these reports. eight secret service agents were fired for having prostitutes in their room in colombia back in 2012. a nice story to bring you now. he may be the cutest and fuzziest crime stopper ever.

meet tuco. adorable. he's a little german shepherd. look at how big that vest is on him. he is the police department's newest canine recruit. he is nine weeks old but is ready for life on the force. tuco is now six months old finally fitting into that bullet-proof vest. we'll know in a couple of months if he's fit for the job. >> their ears are so sensitive they have what they call mutt muffs to protect their ears and they have the booties for their pads. >> the great thing about german shepherd ears, you spend a lot of time massaging them with special liquid because they're always infected. >> thank you very much. we mentioned at the top of the show a week from now we'll be talking about what happened on election day. according to real clear politics right now, the average is the republicans would pick up seven seats. they need six. meanwhile down in the great state of texas, wendy davis

wants to be the next governor. she's in a battle with greg abbott. she is trailing him by double digits. we thought that she had the worst ad of the season with that ad that started with the wheelchair. remember that a couple of weeks ago? last night she shared a stage with state lawmakers donna dukes who alluded to the fact that mr. abbott is in a wheelchair. listen to this. >> then we have this guy who kind of rolls around thinking that he can get reform for himself by take it away from everybody in the state of texas. >> this guy rolls around. >> when wendy davis takes the stage she doesn't try to make good on those comments. granted she wasn't the one who said it, but come on we saw that black and white ad that we showed you at the top of the show and we thought that is this last minute hail myry. she is down by double

digits. it didn't go over well but you think she would have learned a lesson. >> what do you think about that? is it good that maybe we're treating everybody the same and we say roll around, walk around, they're interchangeable? or are you as horrified as we were when we first read it and thought it was an overstatement until we heard the tape play back? weigh in on facebook or on twitter. meanwhile the president of the united states is going to do a little campaigning mostly in the gubernatorial elections, probably the most compelling outside florida is what's happening in wisconsin. we've been in a virtual dead heat between scott walker and mary burke and so it is time for the president to speak out in defense of mary burke the democrat. when he started to speak out and speak up, turns out people walked out again. look. >> i guess what happened is what we've seen a couple of other times is people get their pictures for their social media pages as the

president takes the stage and they start walking out. are they voting with their feet? >> they heard his message offense and over, and they decided to go and get -- >> shocking, though, to think a president would come down and speak for somebody in their party -- in this case mary burke -- and you walk out in the middle of the speech. >> i think they were more excited to see her. in his message there is nothing new. this is the second time in about ten days people -- remember it was last week it was out in the great state of maryland. this is not dpood news for the white house. not good news for the democratic party. brand-new fox polls start with this, has the obama administration been effective in managing the government? six in ten of you say no. then the question, if president obama's policies were on the november ballot would you be for or against? about six in ten against. and are you concerned for the future of the country? when you take a look at extremely and very, 83% of you are very or extremely

worried. only 16% -- only 16% not or not at all. >> i guess that's why many political pundits are saying republicans have a great chance, about a 70% chance according to charles krauthammer of taking the senate. even jay carney was on cnn saying this is going to be a very dismal election for democrats. >> let's talk about ebola because we -- this seems to be the perfect time. we're looking at now a situation where you have a quarantine battle between the president and the governor of new jersey. on another note, you have a memo out that has josh earnest wondering why he took this job. it essentially says we are considering, the state department is considering taking in ebola patients from other countries, three west african countries and bringing them here for treatment going on to say in this memo we have to do our job. haven't we done enough number one? number two, have you ever heard something so insane?

>> fox news got a copy of this memo and it says the purpose of it to determine state department position on admitting non-u.s. the recommendation, allow medical evacuation for eligible noncitizens. the issue, leadership role of the united states. if we want the rest of the people around the world to help out, we've got to do something. what they're suggesting is we fly people in. it even has an expected price tag. it says per person it would cost $200,000 to fly them here and it would cost $300,000 to take care of them. josh earnest, he didn't want to talk about it, so he said call foggy bottom. listen. >> that hasn't happened so far. i don't know of any plan to do that. we'll take a look at the letter. it sounds like he sent the letter to d.h.s. and the state department so you might see if they have a response to the letter. >> i would love to have a cure before we start treating people. or a vaccine.

every time someone comes in, let's try some plasma. let's give them a hug. let's find out how to cure it. how about this? we go to them. if we want to show a humanitarian streak which we have by sending 3,000 troops there while we send 1,600 to fight isis, i think we've done enough. to bring them here is absolutely insane. >> especially after we had two americans trying to do the best health care work possible with patient zero and they come down with ebola and we can't even figure out our own guidelines for the c.d.c. governors are having to take matters in their own hands. let's figure this problem out before we start bringing people in here. >> a dozen people after the top of the hour. >> 23 states and washington, d.c. have already okayed medical marijuana so why is it creating such a controversy in florida? there is a reason and it has a lot of people up in arms. >> what happens when governor mike huckabee tells americans to stand up for their faith? the amazing response straight ahead.

lost the values of the people of new hampshire. she said she was going to go down there and be independent and frankly she has been everything but. that is why i was honored to get his endorsement. >> you closed a double-digit gap even before you got the nomination. people didn't give you a shot and senator you're within two points almost every average poll. let me throw stats at you. fox news did a poll that came in this morning. we asked people are they concerned for america's future. 42% extremely concerned. 41% very concerned, and very little people say we don't have a problem. is that what you're feeling and hearing on the ground? >> yeah. people in new hampshire have a rational fear not only about the border and the border crisis that we have. they have a rational fear about ebola. obviously about what's happening with isis. absolutely, they're deeply concerned about the direction of our country. that's, i believe, the result of president obama's half-steps and hesitations as referenced by secretary panetta and has been endorsed by senator shaheen

99% of the time. it's real. during town halls, going into people's businesses and homes, it's real. it's what they talk about each and every time i meet with them. >> i just touched on something. when you were in the u.s. senate you were not an automatic rubber stamp for george bush's policy. however, you've been very very effective in this particular senate rate. jean shaheen has been a rubber stamp for president obama. >> i was there with president obama, not with president bush but that is correct i was the most independent senator in the united states senate. senator shaheen is the most partisan. we need to change direction. the only way you're going to do that is to change senators. people want to hold those responsible accountable and vice versa when you're talking about obamacare and the business mandate coming in after the election. with regard to not closing the border, i voted to close the border and send troops. she hasn't. raising energy prices, she's proposing and paving

here to explain curt the cyber guy. good morning. >> good morning to you. it's a crazy statistic when you look at this and you look at it is the number one security concern for americans, identity theft and credit card fraud. and we take a look at how could this ever affect us? it's likely to at one point in your life or certainly someone in your family will run into this. there is some common things that we're learning that are very low tech, as a matter of fact, as it relates to how to keep these bad guys away from us. actually it was an investigator at the aarp that ended up saying why don't i sit down with some of these career criminals that are recently released and ask them how they did it. and very interesting tips came out of that. the first one is lock your mailbox at home. >> this is a no brainer. >> no tech tip. lock your mailbox at home. why?

they found out people go and break into automobiles that could be at the mall, your car could be at work. they go and pull out your driving record inside the car, anything else you might have in the car, and use that as your identification. then they swing by your house, seeing the address on it, start grabbing your mail, they're called a lame gang criminal, a felony lame gang. they're at the outside teller at the bank, using just your car registration to convince the teller that's them and boom, they've cracked open a new path to get into all of your credit. >> next up, you have a low tech tip for us. we need to make sure if we haven't done, sign up for on line access. >> it's a toss-up. you are creating vulnerability to sign for all this on your phone or home computer, but the safer route is to sign up to be able to watch all of your money, all of your credit accounts because those are going to be the places that you see for the

first time that something has happened and identity theft is now creeping into your world. >> if you're somebody who likes apps, there is a new one out, high-tech tip for everybody called location detection by the bill guard app. >> we told you this was coming. yesterday it was released. it's the location fraud alerts and it's so simple. this is a free app. you download it. it's for virtually every operating system, android and ios. if you got an iphone, it will work there. you take this, you shop with your phone most everywhere you go. what it does is it notices hey, we weren't at the target in cleveland, ohio, on this particular day and instead, it says, that doesn't line up, so it warns you that that charge could potentially be a fraudulent charge. and you just quickly click it and say yeah, i'm not making that charge and then you start to get into it. and then people are now asking me, and i'm being bombarded, is

wireless payment safe at this point? isn't it still safer just to use your plastic, good old-fashioned traditional credit card? it is not. it's strange. so the new apple pay is safer and the quick answer is, because the fewer people that ever touch your credit card, the better off you are. >> great. thank you so much. if you missed any of this, head to our web site. for information, he's always got amazing stuff. go to the cyberguy.com in order to get his newsletter. thanks. coming up, dr. keith ablow under fire this morning after calling for, quote, american jihad. why he is calling for boots on the ground all over the world. and wendy davis' campaign is at it again. attacking her opponent for being disabled. your e-mails on this one are pouring in. we read them top of the hour. ♪ ♪

hi. good morning. today is wednesday, the 29th of october, 2014. i'm anna kooiman in for elisabeth hasselbeck. a fox news alert. a nasa rocket explodes just seconds after lift-off. >> going to be loud! >> oh, my god! >> hundreds of people watching in horror. so what went wrong? hey, we thought wendy davis couldn't stoop any lower than this. >> a tree fell on greg abbott. he sued and got millions. since then, he spent his career working against other victims. >> well, now her political supporters prove they can go even lower with six days left. see if they can top themselves.

♪ i smell the wine and cheap perfume ♪ ♪ >> nice air guitar there. the air for academy band blue steel performing "don't stop believing." i bet this is one of those song that gets you energized at work. >> absolutely. there is plenty of bass in this, according to that study that found good music gets you going and this is perfect. blue steel travels the country. they help with recruiting and with morale and they're boosting ours today. >> they keep singing, i'm going to join the air force. they're fantastic. i actually thought that was -- >> journey? >> no. >> rock of ages. that's who you thought it was. >> no, no. what's the name of the show on

fox? >> "glee." >> that's highway thought it was. >> in the meantime, we start with a fox news alert. increased terror threat, stepping up security across the country. >> is that enough? joining us now live from washington, d.c., the breaking details we have leeland vittert. hey. >> good morning. one source said while there was not a specific threat prompting this new security pros sister, tosses -- posture, they're hoping to catch the attention of lone wolf style attacks. the new warnings come for 9500 federal buildings and government installations. it's impossible to turn each one of those into a steel fortress. homeland security says they're working with state and local officials to take additional measures to keep not only the facility safe, but also those working inside. they won't say what the security measures entail, but they will be on a rotating basis. >> you could argue this is a

half measure that they should be a more general raising of the alert after all these events are kind of frightening. so yeah, awful us who watched this whole administration response to terrorism in general have, for many of us concluded that the administration has been loath to respond very much to these things for fear of interfering with their kind of favored narrative, which is that al-qaeda is on the run and the tide of war is receding. >> reporter: warnings come after a number of attacks by those self-radicalized and inspired by terrorists abroad rather than actually trained by them, including the new york city hatchet attack on police officers and the two canadian attacks. so far officials can't point to any specific intelligence coming from terrorist chatter for this latest alert. but one source cautioned while there is, quote, nothing there is, quote, everything, and a lot of it. back to you guys. >> that's great. i love that statement. thanks, leeland. it's either empty or full.

you make the call. heather nauert is always full of news. >> okay. good morning, brian. let's start out with a fox news alert. just six seconds after lift-off, a nasa rocket explodes. >> oh, god! oh, god! it's going to be loud! >> this morning, nasa is now trying to figure out what went wrong there. it was an unmanned rocket and it was bound for the international space station. it exploded last night on launch and rained down over the launch pad. this happened in wallops island, virginia. no one on the ground was hurt thankfully. but they are now investigating the cause of that. also new information coming in overnight. you know the father who vanished from a denver broncos game last week? he found safe and sound thankfully. he was picked up outside a furniture store in pueblo, colorado, two hoursouth of denver. police not saying where he's been for nearly week.

he disappeared from mile high stadium during half time last thursday. the 53-year-old had no phone, no car and about $50 in his pocket. the man in charge of investigating the secret service prostitution scandal is accused of paying a prostitute himself. sheriffs in broward county, florida, spotted david nieland at a building they had under surveillance and then interviewed a prostitute who said that he had paid for her services. he quietly stepped down in august. he has denied these reports. eight secret service agents were fired for having prostitutes in their rooms in colombia in 2012. a cab driver in new york city getting the surprise of a lifetime when he realizes the passenger in his back seat -- can you tell who that is? tom hanks. the cabby yelled out wilson. a nod to "castaway." they hit it off. listen to this, hanks later tracked him down and gave him the ticket to the broadway show he was starring in at the time

and he was able to go back stage and hang out with tom hanks and the other actors. those are your headlines. >> what a nice thing he could do for a complete stranger. >> hanks for the memory. >> wilson. thank you very much. so let's talk a little bit about ebola because it's been nine minutes. let's talk about what the administration is doing to fight against ebola. the president speak out yesterday. he seemed to be kind of taking on governor christie in calling him out, essentially saying we don't live in a climate of fear. but if you see this memo that fox news was able to get its hands on, i'm living in a climate of fear that they're going to execute a plan proposed on this memo. >> we received this from capitol hill source. it's prepare for the state department and marked sensitive. but unclassified. here is the purpose, determine state department position on admitting nonu.s. citizens. elimination are: allow medial evacuation for eligible

noncitizens. the issue at hand, leadership role of the united states. so we had representative goodlat on the channel on monday talking about sending a note to the department of homeland security trying to figure out what on earth was going on and he received some information from the white house and with the idea that this could be happening. so josh earnest pressed about this yesterday and he appears to be pushing the buck. listen. >> that certainly hasn't happened so far. i don't know of any plans to do that. we'll take a look at the letter and -- it sounds like he sent the letter to dhs and the state department. you might see if they have a response. >> so go ask them. how many times have we heard people from the administration say the best way to kill this ebola thing is to stop it over in west africa. so what they're suggesting with this is we actually bring the people from west africa to the united states of america. does that seem like a good idea

to you? listen to this. >> the nurses that i have spoken, to the doctors i have spoken to, everyone is extremely cautious about treating infected patients. we are a naive country. this continent has never seen this virus. i cannot believe we are intentionally thinking about bringingç people here. >> by far the stupidest thing i have ever heard. to bring infected ebola patients into a country that has proven we don't know how to deal with ebola here when we come back with people when end up getting it here in this country. you couldn't come up with a stupider idea. which makes me think this was either written in crayon or a joke or is it april 1? >> one state department official says the discussion has been shelfed. another says perhaps they are thinking about using u.s. aircraft to transport them to another country. meanwhile, speaking of transporting, it was a couple of days ago that nurse casey

hickok, came into newark airport. they did that scan thing. she showed 101 temperature. they later tested her for fever and ebola. she's had neither. she stayed in quarantine in newark for a couple of days. then governor christie released her to the state of maine. now apparently up in maine where she's supposed to stay on a quarantine, her lawyers are saying that she's not going to stay. so the state of maine is prepared to force her legally, a court order if she does not comply. >> isn't that ironic because she was the one who was threatening to sue when she was quarantined in new jersey. >> yeah. what about the doctor, the 33-year-old new york doctor, the nurse is running around crazy in maine refusing to listen to anyone and make governor christie seem like the bad guy. good luck for the people in maine now. your problem. meanwhile, the 33-year-old doctor was our problem. he was running around new york when we asked, what were you doing when health officials asked him, where were you? he was like i was

self-quarantined. they looked at his metro card and they said no, you weren't. you went to a hamburger place, bowling place, subway line, oops. next thing he's got ebola. he's struggling for his life sadly. why do these people continue to lie when so much is on the line? >> well, as it turns out, up in maine where this woman's lawyer says she's not going to comply with it, apparently a couple of facebook and twitter pages have been set up. social media pages to keep an eye on her. just to make sure she doesn't leave her house. meanwhile, a lot of people are going to be leaving the house next tuesday because it's election day and down in texas, wendy davis would like to be governor. remember, she's behind right now greg abbott, the attorney general. it looked like a last ditch effort when they ran that ad that showed the image of the wheelchair. remember that one right there. that was despicable. it was called out. then at a campaign event a couple days ago with a fellow democrat by the name of donna dukes, she alluded to the fact

that greg abbott is in a wheelchair. listen to what she says. >> can we have this guy who just kind of rolls around thinking that he can get tort reform for himself, but take it away from everybody else in the state of texas! >> wendy davis wasn't the one who made the comment, but she did take the stage afterward and didn't try to make good on them. seems like she may have learned her lesson, or would have on how terrible that first ad went over. like a lead balloon. >> she wants to see if she can lose by a wider margin. obviously it's working if that's her strategy. you wonder why u.s.-israeli relations have broken down? wait until you hear with someone inside the white house just called prime minister benjamin netanyahu. here is a hint, we can't say it on television, on this morning's show. and he grew up barefoot, literally. now he's a billionaire and giving it all away. you remember his son ran for president, but do you know his

he's gone from broke and literally barefoot to billionaire and choosing to go broke again, kind of. our next guest has already given 80% of his fortune to charity and eventually planning to give it all away. joining us is the founder of the huntsman corporation, author of a book "30 years in the making, barefoot to billionaire, reflection on a life's work and a promise to cure cancer, john huntsman, senior. welcome. thanks for coming in. >> my pleasure. >> first off, how did growing up poor fuel your desire to no longer be poor again? >> i think that the basic premise is the fact that once you break out of that mold or once you see others, friends or associates of one kind or another, you know there is a better life ahead and you know if you work hard and creative and if you surround yourself with good people, you can break out of a certain mold and move into the next fair. that's what we tried to do. >> how did you do it? you graduated from the warden school, so you had the business acuemen. clearly you have intelligence to get in. how did you start to break out? >> i really broke out because in

high school, i never heard of the word in school. i never heard of many colleges coming from idaho. rural idaho. but a wonderful jewish family in san francisco selected a student they thought was appropriate and i happened to be president of our student body at the high school where my father was attending school. at late age i might add. they exposed me to this great new world. from there, i developed some wonderful contacts, relationships, and found that you can do whatever your dreams tell you you can do. >> as you started to make more and more money, you became addicted to giving. >> i became addicted to giving because i think as a young man, even a boy, just nothing. i always paid my tithing to my church. i would help other people. my wife wondered when i made $300 a month, a young gunnery officer in the navy, she said where is that $50 aç month goi? i think she thought i had something going on the side. but i was helping a family in need who needed it worse than we

did. i always loved to give. it's just been a great blessing. a great honor. >> we know your son ran for president, great person. governor of utah. you said you had cancer three times? >> four times, yes. >> four times. >> yes. >> how did that change you? it seems like you were a great guy before this. afterwards, how did it change you? >> my mother died of cancer in my arms. i was holding her. she was in her 50s. her mother died in her 40s. my father died of cancer. my stepmother died of cancer. obviously before my father gave me prostate cancer, which is the first one. it seemed like it's an epidemic. we talk about ebola and we should today. 550,000 americans die every year of cancer. it's an epidemic in america and throughout the world. 7.5 million people a year die of cancer. >> you're battling it and you're going to cure it. is your family on board giving away your fortune? when you give away this money, you're doing to fuel others to

have the drive and success that you had. not just happenedouts. >> i hope so. the huntsman cancer institute is the largest genetic cancer research center in the world today. we started at 22 years ago. we've been expanding. we've been growing. we put millions of dollars into it. we made great breakthroughs in research and the children are on board. my grandchildren, probably not as much as they'd like to, but they've always been a family affair in the sense we've all pitched in together and it's been a great blessing for our family. >> from a man whose dad made $99 a month to a billionaire who is going to give it all away, this is the type of message we need to learn and this is the type of time line we need to digest. thanks so much. >> my pleasure. >> congratulations. >> thanks so much. ten minutes before the bottom of the hour. looks just like the white house, doesn't it? it's a full scale replica and it's being built in iraq. why? remember when this song dominated the charts on your radio? it's been nearly 20 years since

american fundamentally in our own national character, but to spread our national character to other nations, such that they would model ours. >> here is an excerpt from it. says we would accept the fact that an american jihad could mean boots on the ground in many places in the world where human rights are being denigrated and horrors are unfolding because wherever leaders and movements appear that seek to trample upon the human spirit, we have a god-given right to intervene. dr. ablow, the folks that are saying allah akbar are worshiping a far different god than the god that i worship. and they also have a history for hundreds of years having a completely different set of government. so will they understand this language that you propose i speak to them? >> i think cancer understands chemotherapy and surgery and isis should understand an america reemboldened and throwing off the terrible sort of backlash that president obama represented when he told us to be embarrassed of our national

heather nauert has other news and then we'll talk a little bit more. >> good morning to you. another developing story to bring you. the federal building security is increasing over fears terrorists are planning to murder innocent americans. sources say terrorists hope to inspire lone wolf-style attacks. the new warnings cover some 9500 federal buildings. right now officials say they can't point to any specific threat. new information coming in overnight about the father who vanished from a denver broncos game. he's been found safe and sound. he was picked up outside a k-mart in pueblo, colorado, two hours south of denver. police are not saying yet where he's been for nearly a week now. though according to local police, he said he just liked to go for walk. he disappeared from mile high stadium during half time last thursday. 593-year-old had no car, no phone, and $50 in his pocket. the man in charge of investigating the secret service prostitution scandal is now

accused of paying a prostitute himself. sheriffs in broward county, florida, spotted david nieland at a building they had under surveillance and interviewed a prostitute who said that he had paid her for her services. nieland quietly stepped down back in august. he's denying these reports. eight secret service agents were fired for having prostitutes in their rooms in colombia back in 2012. this is my favorite story of the day, he may be the cutest crime stopper we have ever seen. he's a german shepherd, one of the boston police department's newest canine recruits. look how tiny he is compared to that vest. but he is getting ready for life on the force. let's fast forward to six months old now. now he fits better into that vest. so they'll keep working with him to figure out if he's up for the task. >> you mentioned the years. years are totally up. he's ready for action. >> he's ready. >> he can hear us right now. >> thank you. the election is just a week

from yesterday. down in texas they'll pick a new governor. wendy davis, remember that despicable ad she had that showed aç wheelchair? keep in mind greg abbott, her opponent, is in a wheelchair. we have video of one of her supporters, democrats, texas state representatives who mocks greg abbott's disability by saying this guy who just kind of rolls around. talking about the wheelchair. listen to this. you be the judge. >> then we have this guy who just kind of rolls around thinking that he can get tort reform for himself but take it away from everybody else in the state of texas! >> thanks, appreciate it. i'm sure wendy will be elated with that comment. shear what you're saying about whether that was appropriate or not here in the last week before the mid terms. georgia on facebook says, this woman should lose and lose big if for nothing more than bad judgment and a total lack of decency. >> she's down double digits. robert says i think it's time to demand higher standards from our

politicians. this level of behavior is just not acceptable. >> another on facebook says sounds like desperation. meanwhile, well, the president of the united states went out to wisconsin to stump for the gubernatorial candidate there and just like what happened last week in maryland, as soon as the president started talking, people started leaving. look at some of this video right here. that's not great. >> yeah. if you hear from larry sabato and from charles krauthammer, he says that when you see things like this, it just shows you what a terrible election day next tuesday is going to be. they say 70% of -- there is a 70% chance that the senate is going to go republican. a lot of that is because everybody is -- all these republican candidates are tying the democratic candidates to president obama. as you saw there, he ain't popular. >> that they tied at 47% each. and mary burke called her a

practical person. talk about running through a wall for that comment. meanwhile, here is what the polls say about what you think. has president obama been confident and effective in managing the government? no, 59%. yes, 39%. that was virtually reverse two years ago. >> meanwhile, president obama's policies were on the november ballot, would you vote against or for? well, six in ten of you would vote against them. that's not good. and finally, are you concerned about the future of the country? take a look at this. 42% are extremely concerned. 41 very. so between very and extremely, that's 83%. only 12% not. on monday we had the house judiciary chairman on the news channel and he said that he had information coming in to his office from the white house that there were possible plans in the works to bring nonamericans from the hot zone in west africa to the united states. >> people with ebola. >> right. people with ebola for treatment.

now we have a document obtained from a capitol hill source into fox news and it's prepped for the state department. it says the purpose, determine state department's position on admitting nonu.s. citizens. recommendation: allow medical evacuation for eligible noncitizens. the issue: leadership role of the united states. is this something that we want to be doing? >> what country is the state department working for? is it the u.s.? can we get confirmation on that? >> it's the u.s. >> what are they talking about? is there anything more insane? didn't the president of the united states says the best way to treat ebola is keep it over there but allow people to still go, we're going to send people over there? remember that? we don't want to discourage people from helping people in africa. another thing if we had a cure or vaccine. then i'd feel a little bit better or optimistic. we seem to be winging it from patient to patient and evidently we stopped supporting any type of vaccine or cure in 2009 because it wasn't enough money in it. >> the press secretary for the

president was asked about this yesterday and he gave a nonanswer. >> that certainly hasn't happened so far. i don't know of any plans to do that. but again, we'll take look at the letter. it sounds like he sent the letter to dhs and the state department. so you might see if they have a response to the letter. >> one state department official says the discussion has been shelfed, which is great. another state department official said that what they're considering how is to use u.s. planes to transport ebola patients out of west africa someplace else. >> do you think there is a way to rush breathalyzers into the state department to find out who is the drunk person who came up with this idea? is it possible? do you want to go to a blood test? >> apparently the intent was if we're going to ask other countries to help out with ebola, we've got to be able to do something, willing to do something and it would be something grand on that scale, bring them over here. but apparently, according to one state department official, not gonna happen. >> when the guidelines are changing day-to-day, it doesn't make me feel comfortable at all that this is even on the table.

>> they're just making it up as we go. >> we could send some of the patients to the bowling alley where the doctor went and complete the circle. coming up, we have boots on the ground to fight ebola, but not to fight isis? did you know that pete hegseth has the same educational background as our president, also the secretary of state, john kerry, and susan rice, and he will join us to try to explain what in the world they might be thinking. he's coming up next. and what happens when governor mike huckabee to stand up for their faith? the amazing response ahead. ♪ ♪ i see the levy's parked in front of our house again. it's a free country dad. our house. our spot. those are the rules. ok who wants sweet rolls? oh, i do!

years. were you going, okay, i buy it or like, what are they talk being? >> of course i was sitting, what are they talk being? you raised dissension, you push back. but at the end of the day, these institutions have been overwhelmed. i'm not telling anybody out there something they don't already know, that our academic institutions are overwhelmed with sort of postmodern nothingness that teaches you that everyone can get along and that america is just one of many countries. not exceptional for what it believes. our president is advancing that kind of policy today. >> before the 2008 election, didn't we have a pretty good idea that that was the guy who was going to be elected? >> i think a lot of people were obviously swept up into the rhetoric. but i don't think they understood the depth of who this man was and what he believes. it handcuffed his ability to be the leader of the free world. boots on the ground against ebola, against a faceless disease. but not against jihaddists who are cutting you have our heads. a perfect dichotomy and the piece on foxnews.com plays that

inches of snow? so this is kind of the water equivalent that we're looking at here. the choices are a, is it one inch? b, five inches. c, ten inches. d, one foot. >> could it be e, depends? like if it's the light fluffy stuff? >> you know what, anna, you're right. this is the average. so the answer is c, ten inches. that's the average equivalent. but it does vary, depends on the temperature. it could be a little fluffier sometimes and be a little bit more, or a little less. good job, anna. way to think that through. >> wait a minute, you gave us a science trivia question that didn't have an answer? >> and anna was right? >> the answer was ten inches. however, it does vary. >> all right. remind me not to have you as a procter in the sates. >> sounds like a common core question. >> let's take a look at the weather conditions across the country because there is a reason why today's science trivia was snow related. we could be seeing snow across parts of new england and some of the higher elevations of the

>> i don't think so. i like michael lewis' work a lot, but i think he's trying to sell books. i think at the end of the day, there has been an incredible amount of regulation. i think things have changed quite a bit. i think today when you look at capitalism and you look at, say, a small business, somebody who needs a loan, innovators that he's talking about, where are they going for the loan? to wall street. and wall street and the major investment banks are enabling a lot of activity to take place because of the lending. and i think when you make statements like that, it is dangerous because it scares people out of the market to think that everyone is fraudulent, which is absolutely 100% wrong. and unfortunately, you miss a lot of big gains. the average guy and gal out there who miss owning stocks the last couple of years has left a lot of money on the table, unfortunately, and that has only increased the income gap. >> with the legislation and regulations put into place to try to clean up wall street, you think enough has been done or more needs to be done? >> i think enough has been done,

frankly. i think the regulatory environment right now has actually kept officials sitting on money and that has actually not allowed job creation to happen. the regulatory environment right now in terms of the amount of capital these banks have to hold, in terms of the fees that are involved in dodd frank, that's actually slowed down the economy. so i would disagree with michael lewis. >> keep in mind -- and he was acting as a journalist with the day job of working at salmon brothers. what he says happened back then and one of the things that's different about now is now we've got these banks that are too big to fail. back then, that wasn't the case. solomon brothers went belly up. >> that's true. the banks are bigger right now and there is a big too big to fail situation. but when you want a certain complex lending situation, let's say a big company like an ibm, something like that, wants a huge complicated loan, the only place to go is one of these large banks. i agree, we should not allow these banks to take unlimited risk and take the entire economy

anything. so then they panic. they all bolt for cover. take another shot. and then it's called shock factor. they lose their mind. >> jason, staff sergeant, how many years you in? >> i did a little over 11 years 'cause my last tour was reserve duty. about 3 1/2. >> and describe how effective you were and how the rules of engagement changed as your deployment went on. >> for those that i was in direct support of, we've received a lot of praise as far as all the platoons i was part of. we always strived and worked very hard to keep them safe. that's been one of the number one goals of a sniper and country is to protect the infantry. >> that's what chris kyle said when he was here. what distance can you be effective at and how do tech -- has technology helped you become more lethal? >> yeah. weapon systems now adays, you have a lot of things that pretty much make us more accurate better.

honestly, you can probably make shots out with a 762, about 700 yards. >> night and day. >> i trained jason back before 9-11 and he went up to baghdad with me and the first approach up. the technology we had then and the technology he last used is 180 degrees. i stay with the old rifle because i knew what i knew for 20 years, i didn't want to change. he added the new one. just the newer version of that and now it's like ten fold. >> it would be about 1,000 yards. but like i said, with technology, we added a few hundred yards to that. >> by the time you left in 2011, they were saying don't even put up your gun or point it at anybody. could you describe the difference when the president bush and president obama, did you feel it in the ranks? >> yeah. >> in what way? >> speaking of myself and everybody i know, so i'm not saying everybody. but everybody i know, you felt like bush was there for you and now we're trying to cover our butts on the other side.

>> jason? >> yeah, definitely we had way more support as far as the bush administration was concerned. a lot of our kickbacks were equipm body armor and stuff, that was pretty much set out by that administration. new administration now, which is fine. don't get me wrong, but it's more concerned with political aspect instead of an aggressive approach to these enemies. >> and you do have a captain there are for chris kyle and he did say the same thing you said. everyone i killed kept one of my guys alive. and that's what they were looking to do. that's what you guys did. >> it was an honor to get him in there. >> thanks for your service and for what you've done and know you're recognized and welcomed here always. >> thanks for having us. five minutes before we're done. coming up, a huge announcement from larry gatlin. how you can look just like him -- wear what he wears. one for the road next ccaaaaaaaa!
