"happening now" starts now. well we are awaiting a key strategy update in the fight to defeat isis as the president heads to the pentagon just hours from now. welcome to "happening now." i am jenna lee. >> and i will greg jerrett in for jon scott. our commander and chief is getting ready to huddle with top military brackets today and then set to talk publically about the plan moving forward. this is coming on the heels of a stepped up campaign by a u.s.-led coalition in syria with nearly 20 strikes over the weekend pounding the city that serves as the capital for isis. >> the intelligence community
8:01 am
and military folks are saying let's start hitting that area hard. that is where the heart of isis is. >> i don't like at this as a new stage. the president's strategy is of containment in syria and iraq. i am not aware of developments that would cause us to think this is a new stage in the effort. >> jennifer griffin is live at the pentagon with more. >> reporter: we are told the president will make a statement from the briefing room but will not take questions. the last time the president was here at the pentagon was in october two months after the airstrikes began against isis. the white house called for the meeting ahead of the july 4th weekend. 16 airstrikes rocked the city saturday and i am told my
8:02 am
military forces it was deliberate and one of the largest conducted in syria to date. the timing coinsided with july 4th celebrations. the airstrikes on the isis capital took place as americans packed the u.s. capital and watch the fireworks and mark america's birthday and celebrate the freedom isis hates. in baghdad an iraqi pilot mistakingly dropped a bomb on a baghdad neighborhood killing 12 civil civilians and injuring others. russian war planes were seen probing u.s. defenses and forcing f-16s and f-22 to scramble.
8:03 am
and russian president vladimer putin called president obama to wish him a happy 4th. >> that is interesting. that is the first we heard of that. so much focus on security over weekend. what do we know about what the russian jets were up to? >> reporter: we know they were two strategic bombers capable of carrying nuclear weapons and probed off alaska about 10:30 a.m. eastern and 11:00 a.m. eastern off the coast of california. f-16s and f-22 scrambled to meet them but they did not enter u.s. air space which is 12 nodical miles off the u.s. >> in the mean time we will turn our report overseas. mark is here around the world reacting as greece is entering
8:04 am
unchartered territory. voters rejecting calls for tax increases in exchange for more bailout money. it is the result of the leftist prime minister there before resuming talks with creditors. this is what was once desired but a big question on what is next. the country's finance minister who was annoyed by his european counterparts resigned shortly after the vote. the thought is this is going to help greece get a better fix for the debt crisis. wall street saw falling stocks earlier but it has recovered some. charley is live from the fox business network with more. why did greece reject the bailout terms? >> well the terms -- i will say this there are no good people in this whole drama. both sides are nasty. the europeans have shoved
8:05 am
austerity down their throat to the extent the greek economy could not recover. the greek officials are feeling why rome is burning. it is a bad situation with years of overspending and promising cradle to grave benefits the country can't afford. both sides are bad players and the greek people are going to suffer now. that country at the very best is going into a mild depression and at the worst it could make the 1930's look like nothing. ge >> what is the effect of that? many of greeks have been unemployed for years. as far as the ripple effects what will they be? >> they are unemployed but they are getting money from the
8:06 am
government and that will be worth nothing if they stay with the euro. if they drop out, the economy is going to be lousy but people are going to get paid. when you go off the euro the paper will be worth nothing. nothing will ship to greece. it will be a bad situation for the greek people and the european union are not doing what they should be doing. if they went to the greek officials and said we want you to institute free market reform and cut taxes so people can start businesses and the economy can grow and we want you to cut back on your pension. that is not what they did. that is all austerity. when you tell the greek people
8:07 am
you want to go into the a mild depression or deep depression they will say we are ready to roll the dice. >> that is right. greece is looking at places like italy and spain that have similar economies saying why us? i wonder if this is the warning shot some are suggesting it for places closer to home like puerto rico or detroit. do you see that? >> i think there is a problem with the welfare state and how it bankrupts economies and we are not there yet. maybe in the next 50 years. we are going there. when you look at other countries close do that it is spain and italy and portuguel and people running it want to see if you don't get your house in order you will end up in greece and be like them. i think it is a little bit of
8:08 am
them trying to prevent moral hazard and people thinking there is no consequence to whatever you do. it is along the lines of what happened in the banking business. when they bailed out bear sterns the guys at lieman brothers thought they would as well. >> we have been talking about this for five years and many have said this is the storm brewing and we will feel the effects in the market. the dow is down by 30 points. as far as the immediate affects on investors what do you see? >> it would have an impact to us if our banks had lots of loans to greek businesses. our banks had five years to hedge that exposure and i think it is marginal. we get affected by the spread.
8:09 am
if portugal is worse off and spain and italy are really bad. the greeks lied to get in the euro-zone. they lied about liability and their debts and they had help from wall street derivati they used that to hide their debt. but is greece a small version of portugal, spain and italy? if it is and i cannot say it is but if it is we will feel the pain because we have bank exposure to those country's and their debt. italy is a huge country. southern commerce in italy and huge welfare state. >> you are not saying that because of your last name either? >> i have family in southern italy. it is a big welfare state and
8:10 am
kind of like what goes on in greece. >> it will be interesting to see with the talk on debt does that open the door here to talk about debt >> that is a great political question. >> thank you. i will be asking that in a bit. great talking to you. severe thunderstorms threatening the northerner planes and the upper midwest today with the scorching heat wave in the northwest is now in its second week showing no signs of letting up. we are live in the extreme weather center. >> reporter: good to see you. hello everybody at home. we are tracking a threat for severe weather and several areas we are keeping a close eye on. one is across the central plains to the great lake and the southeast and the atlantic with a threat of large hail and damaging wind and flash flooding
8:11 am
with a lot of moisture out there especially parts of the midwest and central planes. there is a tornado risk in place across the mid atlantic including washington, d.c. and philadelphia. watch out and have a way to get the warnings later today. and parts of wisconsin iowa and northwestern parts of illinois. how much rain are we talking about? we could see locally up to six inches not just today but tomorrow and midweek because this is going to be a relatively slow moving storm system especially across the planes and midwest. expect to see rain for several days and we have a number of flash flood watches for parts of northeastern new mexico and parts of western illinois. flash flooding is a big concern. across minnesota and wisconsin
8:12 am
have seen 5-7 inches. in the pacific northwest you mentioned the heat. look at the highs. we expect this to improve but not until the end of the workweek coming up on friday and the heat continues to expand eastward. interior parts of the north pch west on the hot side but the planes make it up to the 90s in places like kansas city. >> you know oregon is not used to temperatures above 100. >> well above average. but coastal areas will get a relief. hang in there. a baby found on the side of the road and the mother is now under arrest as a result. how police say she is involved. plus the crowded gop field of presidential candidates creating a new challenge for new hampshire. why voters in the state that hold the first primary are
8:13 am
experiencing something they may never have encountered before and what it means. and hillary clinton's campaign aids have promised to make her more accessible to the media. do you think they will follow through on the promise? did you see the ropes used to keep the people back this
8:14 am
8:15 am
8:16 am
weekend? welcome back. crime stories we are following closely. the man accused of shooting and killing a new orleans police officer last month while handcuffed and being transported to lock up is before a judge today. the 33-year-old pled not guilty to a capital pledge of murder. the da seeking the death penalty. a mother is under arrest after her baby girl is found on the side of a maryland road. she is acclaimed of taking the infant from her car and leaving
8:17 am
it there. she is charged with child neglect and endangerment. david sweat is inside a special unit in the new york five prison. he was shot and critically injured when captured a week ago. i did 12 town hall meetings in new hampshire and they know we have to address it and deal with it if we were responsible and a nation where we will send our children a better future. >> chris christie talking about entitlement reform and the re response he is getting. he has done 12 town halls after announcing running for president a week ago. the washington hope says new hampshire voters a facing an
8:18 am
unprecedented republican race. bret baier is here, anchor from special report is it unprecedented in new hampshire? >> it is for the amount of candidates. when it is said and done you will have 16 real candidates on the gop side vying for attention and votes. and iowa is one place and new hampshire is a big focus for a lot of the candidates chris christie among them. that was his first stop after the announcement speech. carly fiorina has a six-day, 13 stop tour of the state. expect new hampshire to be a big focus for all of the candidates. >> i would like to talk about entitlement reform and what chris christie has to say and he is getting people nodding with him talking about things previous candidates don't want to talk about which is changing the retirement age.
8:19 am
do you think the story from greece and the conversation about debt is giving them an opening? >> i think it is a tough topic but you have to deal with it long term. chris christie is grabbing on to the third rail and running with it because he thinks the straight talk and the people telling them what they are facing is the way to do it. that could be attractive but inside the party there are people that push back like huckabee and trump who have said this is not what the party should be focused on. up on capitol hill anyone tells you stuff has to change and how you use it in a campaign is the question. >> speaking of trump, he is up there in the polls in new hampshire i was looking at a boston globe article saying
8:20 am
trump is doing well among women and small business owners key demographics in new hampshire but also in iowa. we are seven months away from voting. is it too early? >> it is early. the first debate is a month from now in cleveland and that will help get information out to voters. here is what trump has done. despite all of the focus on the comments that are getting shutdown by other gop candidates except ted cruz about mexican rapist he has tapped into this no body in washington really gets things done. it is all talk from politicians. this anger and poplar, raw emotion inside the party where they are angry at republicans
8:21 am
even and he is tapped into that which is why you have seen him go up in the polls. if he can maintain that is the question because he is getting negative press about how this whole mexico situation developed. >> as you point out, one of the pollsters said the most interesting moment for trump will be that first debate which i know you will be moderating in part, bret. it is coming up quick. >> the countdown is on. we are already working on it. >> we will see you at 6:00. thank you, bret baier. >> a pair of bombings killings du dozens at a mosque. and a boat crashing into a barge on the fourth of july. the latest for the death toll and the search for the missing. >> if you get pinned against something with this current out here it is pretty hazardous.
8:22 am
we are not able to find any other clues or indication of someone being out there. there is a point where we have to terminate the operation.
8:23 am
8:24 am
8:25 am
two bombs explode in nigeria killing 44 people. boko haram is being blamed for this. one at a crowded mosque and another at an elite restaurant where politicians eat in the central city. conner powell is live in jerusalem with more. >> reporter: it has been a deadly few weeks in nigeria with the two bombings being the latest in the stream of attacks by boko haram. that group is targeting a church as well this weekend. boko haram has unleash teed --
8:26 am
unleashed a wave of violence this week. the church was known to bridge the guide between all men and women of faith. they have stepped up with a tact of more than 500 people killed since the new president took over in may. the military commander was elected a few months ago vowing to destroy the boko haram. they have launched a wave of talks against boko haram targeting their leaders and soldiers but despite talk they have not had much success. the united states spent advisors and soldiers to train with the
8:27 am
government. you remember a few months ago more than 400 girls were taken hostage by boko haram. so far despite a lot of coordination and aid and soldiers from around the world pouring into nigeria boko haram is still controlling large parts of nigerian particularly in the northeastern parts of the country. they are launching this wave of attacks still. and the new government that pledged to defeat a boko haram has had very little success. >> indeed. conner powell live thanks. a terrifying fourth of july boat crash kills two people and the search continues for more missing. and new fallout after hillary clinton's campaign roped off reporters at a july 4th parade in new hampshire. the reaction from the other
8:28 am
presidential candidates and our immediate panel weighs in next.
8:29 am
8:30 am
8:31 am
hillary clinton campaign is vowing to make her more available to the media with the presidential candidate set to grant national tv interviews in the next week. this is coming after weeks of criticism about limiting press. her campaign roped off reporters
8:32 am
at a july 4th parade in new hampshire. >> it is outrageous. i have never seen a political candidate wanting to have such little contact with people. she wants to keep everybody away from her. this is part of the problem with secretary clinton. >> joining us now is alan combs >> host: and tammy bruce is here as well. you know the optics of this tammy, cannot be good for her. it sort of reinforces the image of this regal queen in a coronation to the white house. but doesn't it alienate the people she needs? >> yeah look, the next thing is she is going to give interview do is the press but there is going to be plexiglass between the two. i don't know if is about a regal queen or a lepers colony.
8:33 am
her aids talked about the worry in the new media age and things taken out of context and they want to protect her. but what they are doing is creating the problem. you saw the rope against the media and looked like they were being herded like sheep. they did not complain. this is the fourth of july. it was a rope held by a couple 20-year-old interns. break through. >> i thought it was a contest. >> i thought they would have animals coming out the stalls. howard curts writes a column and the folks at the hillary campaign awakened and realized and maybe that was the moment because they got scathing comments from the media. >> i am glad to hear
8:34 am
conservatives concerned about the well-being of the media all of a sudden. terrible optics for the campaign but i am auhamused how the conservatives are defending the media. >> i am not defending it. on the fourth of july our freedom of expression and the media was perfectly fine with being choraled. >> here is one of the reasons i think the sanders campaign is resinateing because it is open and transparent. >> you can talk with anybody and everybody. and maybe it reflects in the poll numbers. in iowa she had a 45 point lead and down to 19 and new hampshire sanders is closing in within single digit and that could be within margin of error. >> they are both socialist. he is just the honest one.
8:35 am
sanders and the root chris to socialist and hillary the is says sizler. >> maybe hillary clinton doesn't think she needs the media? >> it isn't important as much right now. >> johnson didn't think he needed anybody in 1968 and mccartmc mccarthy came out of nowhere and almost beat him. and he dropped out. >> i think he dropped other for other reasons with the vietnam war being one of them and other factors. the media doesn't matter much. >> look at the numbers you talked about greg. it is a 40 point drop. it is not because people are hearing something from hillary clinton they tonight like. they are just not hearing from her. and that is the element of
8:36 am
relations and the fact media is letting her get away. >> now we will see the new hillary and we have heard that tune before in march that she said and i will quote her a new beginning of the media no more secrecy and no more zone of privacy. of course alan, that never happened. it became a running joke. this is a different campaign than the republicans need to run. when you have 4,000 candidates you need the media to break breakthrough. she doesn't need it as much. >> look at what is happening to her. >> people read the print, watch the television shows and -- >> iowa and new hampshire are retail republicans. the joke in new hampshire is i don't know what i think about the candidate i only met her three times. you need the media further in. >> people are suspicious he she has no good answers to things
8:37 am
like benghazi and e-mails. >> x on. >> one of the arguments about the sheep rope line is she didn't want the media to hear because she could not control who was at the parade. the regular people were asking questions about e-mails ask one guy had a sign against benghazi. that is what she is trying to protect as well. having the media telegraph that regular people who are not hand picked by them are concerned about the server. >> that is why this is all about optics and a very bad move for the campaign. >> alan combs and tammy bruce you kind of agree. >> 40 percent! >> we want to hear from you, hillary clinton's campaign aids promise to her make more accessible do you think they will uphold that?
8:38 am
a trading pick is going quite and brings the end of an era where you can watch fortunes be made and lost. eric bowling is here to talk about what it means on the way we do business and the prices we pay and the man accused of random randomally killing a woman at a san francisco pier is confessing insisting it was an accident. >> did you shoot the lady on pier 14? >> yes. >> you did shoot her? >> she died so senselessly. it is terrible.

8:42 am
upstream from the bridge. >> a man arrested in a killing at a san francisco pier is admitting he shot her. san francisco franchez is his name. telling local tv he is responsible for the 32-year-old woman's death insisting it because an accident. he was speaking erratically and unnerved while talking about a range of topics from how he found the gun to how he was there as an illegal immigrant. >> where did you get the gun? >> [inaudible speaking] i shot boom boom three times. >> why did you keep coming back to the united states? why did you come back to san francisco? >> because i am looking for
8:43 am
something. >> he knew he was protected because it is a sanctuary city. we have a criminal defense attorney and trial attorney. san francisco is a sanctuary city and it says they will not assist in the enforcement of federal immigration law. instead of deporting him they protected him and let him go and out of jail. is the city jonah, directly to blame from a kate's murder? >> i will say that is a re-soundsound resounding yes. the only sanctuary city we
8:44 am
should have is jail. not a tourist attraction where this person was killed. if you are a city you have a duty to keep the citizens safe. so if you have a hole in the road and someone hurts their ankle the city is liable. you have not keeping your city safe if you allow multiple well ns not go to ice when they have a warrant and let them back on the street. >> san francisco is breaking the law. in 1996 congress passed a law outlying sanctuary cities and made it a crime to shield illegal immigrants. here is the federal law and statute making it a felony to con seal harbor or shelter illegal aliens and the supreme court has upheld that. shouldn't officials in san
8:45 am
francisco including the sheriff who let it go and didn't notify ice, shouldn't he and they be criminally prosecuted? >> absolutely not. it is sad that people are trying to take a tragedy and the loss of this young woman and turn it into a political point that has nothing to do with what happened. >> this is a legal point. you are a lawyer. >> i am. >> shouldn't they be criminally prosecuted? the law is on the book and others have been prosecuted the supreme court upheld the prosecution shouldn't the sheriff be prosecuted? >> prosecuted for following the guidance of the state and the lawyers of who state that held it was appropriate. this guy was being held for a ten-year marijuana possession. what happened is a shame but there is no way the sheriff's department knew this would happen. >> what happened that makes us less safe is the jails are
8:46 am
filled with folks and events doing their jobs. here what happened is a tragedy but it is not a tragedy we can relate. >> the supreme court said if you provide sanctuary you could be prosecuted and people have upheld this. shouldn't the sheriff be prosecuted? >> absolutely. you cannot just ignore a supreme court ruling. there is no other place to go once the supreme court renders a decision first of all. second of all, it is not as if somebody held by ice on a warrant is taken away and buried alive in a shallow grave. you have a right to due process when ice is trying to enforce our custom laws. so it is not -- why are we providing sanctuary where we have due process? san francisco shouldn't be making this decision and law enforcement should be liable for this woman's death. >> can the family sue for
8:47 am
wrongful death against san francisco? i read the tort claims act and you can get around it and file a claim if you can prove that the city was reckless in simply ignoring federal law. >> the city was not recklessly ignoring federal law. they were taking the same steps that cities nationwide that determined what is in the best interest of the safety of their citizens is not reacting -- >> there is a primacy clause rebecca. >> the agular decision is not on point here. the decision is what many cities are doing nationwide. it is well established. it hasn't made up to the supreme court decision i know of but i doubt there is a problem. these localities are not filling up the jails with non-violent offenders waiting for ice to show up. >> this guy is going to be in
8:48 am
one of our prisons for the next 25 years. sgr >> and that is where he should be. >> congress outlawed sanctuary cities and president obama or the department of justice is making no move to enforce that law. isn't that his duty? >> no he is respecting localities about what makes them safer. >> local law and state law conflicting with the fed and feds prevail don't they? >> always. how can you argue nisthis is a safety issue? someone is dead that should not have been here. that makes no sense. >> janice and rebecca, thank you for being with us. the roar of the floor: going silent today in some parts of the country.
