set your dvr so you never miss an episode of "the five" "special report" is next. i'm bret baier in washington. this is a fox news alert. they are trying to pick up the pieces tonight on wall street after the dow's worst day in four years. the industrial average plunged 531 points today. the s&p 500 lost 65. the nasdaq dropped 171. for the week the dow and the s&p 500 both lost almost 6 percentage points. nasdaq was down almost 7. take a look at this chart. showing the track of this week's dow drop. and today was the biggest one-day point loss since august 8th, 2011. let's get some analysis now of what's going on. joining us from our sister network, fox business network's

melissa francis. good evening, melissa. what is driving this selloff? >> there were a lot of different things at work today. boy it was a blood bath into the close i have to tell you. one of the biggest factors is china. as you know, they have made a move to devalue their currency. that's bad for a lot of reasons. i mean number one you look at a company like apple which sold $16 billion worth of goods in china last quarter. they devalue that currency, that's an immediate hit to apple's profits and their prices. all of a sudden they're instantly with that making less. it also gifts you insight into what's going on in china. it signals the economy is really slowing there. that the government feels like they need to make a move like that and defend their economy. there's e.g. everything you see going on in europe, in greece. that's a drag as well. and there's oil. i mean, oil dipping below $40 a barrel, it should be good for consumers. we haven't really seen consumers go out and spend that money that they're saving. at the same time, oil dipping is bad for the market and companies likes exxon which obviously

makes their money in oil. and it tells you that the economy is slowing around the world if there isn't demand for oil. so there's a lot of things going on. the fed minutes earlier this week as well. indicating that the fed is likely to come in and raise rates, low rates and easy money have been a big boost to the market. so just a lot of things weighing on the market this week. it was a rough one. >> big question about what this will do. but what about monday? is the feeling that this is bear territory and it's going to keep correcting? >> so i talked to traders after the close today to get their sense of what was going on. some said that they felt like the bottom feeders hadn't come in. the people who come in and buy when prices are very low. they weren't necessarily there. and that made them feel like there could be more selling next week. but also you heard that they really want to wait and see and see what happens with asia overnight on sunday. do they take our cue and continue to sell off? that could spell trouble for the market on monday. so i guess you have to stay up all night sunday to find out,

bret. >> we'll be watching. melissa, thank you. we are still a few days away from the start of college football season. but there are expected to be more than 40,000 fans jammed into a stadium tonight in alabama to seat man who has turned the republican presidential race into a political contact sport. and donald trump is forcing his fellow candidates to play some serious defense. we have fox team coverage tonight. howard kurtz and kathryn herridge with new evidence that clinton had classified information pass through her personal e-mail server. we begin with chief political correspondent carl cameron, republicans trying to keep up with trump on immigration and it's tough. >> it is. well, he has been in the race for a month. and the front runner for the entire time. and now donald trump's singular emphasis on immigration is clearly impacting several rivals individually and the race overall. wisconsin governor scott walker says he will not address any

issues on immigration reform like what to do with the 11 million immigrants already here illegally until the border is secured. >> what i've done is say we need to secure the border. once we do that then continue to work on whatever happens. >> frontrunner donald trump plainly insists all illegal immigrants must be sent home. walker tweeted for clarity "truly secure border and enforce laws. nothing else matters on immigration issues if you don't do this first. that's my point. rye values including jeb bush, marco yub yo, john kasich and others say some might be given a path to legal status. lines will be long in alabama for trump tonight. 22,000 have rsvp 'd. trump has faced fiscally -- in 2009 when the president signed a $1 trillion stimulus package loathed by fiscal conservatives, trump praised obama and the deficit spending. >> i thought he did a terrific

job tonight. it's a strong guy who really know what is he wants. this is what we need. >> ted cruz wants to inherit trump's supporters if the billionaire bows or flames out. he heaps praise on the focus trump has put on the border. >> because of donald trump, all of the folks in the media are talking about illegal immigration. the second benefit of donald trump's being in the race is the attention it is drawing. our national support doubles because those 24 million people, that many eyeballs watching the debate, they liked, i believe, the message they heard. >> both bobby jindal and jeb bush addressed a koch brothers cattle call in ohio this week. >> a smart immigration policy can make our country stronger. a dumb immigration policy will make our country weaker. today we've got a dumb immigration policy. >> bush more than once in recent days has displayed his annoyance at questions about trump and said he is not a conservative. but never mentioned trump today. >> but 45 minutes from now, the

bush campaign says it plans to send an e-mail to thousands of its supporters in alabama that will say the following. "for years, donald trump favored partial birth abortions. trump proposed enacting the largest tax increase in american history. he's supported restrictions on the second amendment and has long backed laws that infringe on state's land rights." it goes on to say trump's positions are deeply out of step with the alabama way of life. we know alabama cherishes life, especially the life of the unborn. not a single alabama taxpayer wants to see massive tax increases. trump's history of supporting democratic ideas will not go unnoticed in alabama. so please share this with your friends. this again an e-mail going from the bush campaign out to alabama supporters. trump has been throwing a lot of sharp elbows. looks like bush is getting ready to do so, too. >> the happy tortoise or whatever he called may be stepping it up a bit. >> lacing up the gloves. >> carl, thank you. we have another glaring example tonight of exactly what hillary clinton is being investigated for. here's chief intelligence correspondent kathryn herridge.

>> reporter: in november 2009, as the u.s. government was finalizing its strategy for the draw down in afghanistan, aide huma abedin forwarded this e-mail to mrs. clinton's personal account. the e-mail which contains the b 1 code for classified information includes intelligence from britain foreign secretary david milliband. milliband's aide said very much wants the secretary only to see this note. this code means the information belonged to another government. >> it's the effort of a foreign government to communicate important information to us. it's classified in and of itself. >> reporter: this new evidence of classified information on accomplice:ton's personal e-mail account comes as her team posted a video taking shots at her critics. >> when john boehner tells you that hillary clinton is under criminal investigation for mishandling of classified e-mails, he's dead wrong. >> reporter: the 2.5 million video includes selected details from a fox news report that buttresses claims clinton did nothing wrong. >> one of the e-mails that the

inspector general has flagged as potentially containing classified information at the time it was sent is actually one that if you look at it is specifically marked unclassified. >> reporter: fal lon admits the inspector general concluded this 2011 abedin e-mail that triggered the fbi probe contained classified information when it was sent. and the video wrongly showcases an unclassified marking that was placed on the abedin e-mail in may when it was sent to capitol hill, not when it was drafted four years ago. >> their comments concerning the markings is false and misleading. >> reporter: while mrs. clinton maintained in march the server was under government protection -- >> it had numerous safeguards. it was on property guarded by the secret service. and there were no security breaches. >> reporter: a spokesman for denver's platt river network said they took control in june 2013 and moved the server to new jersey. >> this is an east coast client. and we moved the server to a dedicated, secure data center. did that in june of 2013.

and it hadn't moved until wednesday of last week in which time we turned it over to the fbi per their request. >> reporter: for the second time this week, the campaign called the short notice conference call for reporters. this time claiming if mrs. clinton received classified information and the same e-mails were sent to the benghazi select committee then their computers should be searched as well, bret. >> okay, kathryn, thank you. hillary clinton and donald trump have a lot in cop mon. both are obviously recognizable, rich. they both want to be president. but the ways in which they are going about it could not be more different. fox news media analyst and host of fox's media buzz, howard kertz takes a look. >> donald trump and hillary clinton both held news conferences this week, each with a strikingly different tone. >> did you wipe the server? >> what like with a cloth or something? >> you know how it works digitally. did you try to wipe the whole thing? >> i don't know how it works digitally at all. >> i read a lot of the phony reports, a couple of reports in the paper today saying oh, well, when donald trump gets tired of

doing this he's doing great. and he's leading all the polls. but at some point he'll get -- i'm not going anywhere, folks. >> reporter: since trump got into the race on june 16th he's done at least 66 national television interviews blanketing the airways. clinton has done two, with cnn and univision. trump has taken questions from reporters at least six times during the same period. clinton ended a long drought with ten. trump's in such demand that he does most interviews from trump tower. many programs allowing him to phone in for as long as half an hour. this is extremely unusual for the sunday shows where candidates are expected to show up. but on a single morning, trump called into "meet the press" "face the nation" "this week" and "state-of-the-union." trump now on the cover of "time" magazine is good for ratings. the polls show him just six points behind clinton. one similarity. both candidates can get testy with reporters. >> but ed, you're not listening to me. >> you keep bringing up negative. you only want to talk about

negative. you're not bringing up anything new. >> >> reporter: and while clinton hasn't spoken to an english language network since july 7th, trump does so much tv he can clean up any mess the next day or just joke around with the host. >> i would pay her so much more your head would spin. >> reporter: the media are feeding into this huge imbalance. but it also reflects the candidate's history. the former first lady has been wary of the press since her husband's scandal-scarred administration while the real estate mogul used favorable coverage to turn himself into a reality show celebrity. bret? >> howard, thank you. up next, taking russia and vladimir putin a lot more seriously. first here's what some of our fox affiliates around the country are covering tonight. fox 5 in atlanta where an anti-religion group is calling on the university of georgia, georgia tech and other schools, to abolish the team chaplains for their football programs. the freedom from religion foundation says christian coaches and chaplains are

converting playing fields into mission fields. wsvn in miami where they're keeping an close eye on hurricane denny which has now been upgraded to a category 3 hurricane. it's located as you see about 900 miles of east of the leeward islands and not posing a threat to any land yet. but you can see there its track could have it colliding with puerto rico by early next week. and this is a live look at new york. fox 5 is covering breaking news there. this is a live helicopter shot. poce say two people have been shot outside a federal building in lower manhattan. local media are saying a federal officer and a suspect were wounded. it's believed it happened at the site of an immigration court. we'll monitor that. that's tonight's live look outside the beltway from special report. we'll be right back. growing up, we were german. we danced in a german dance group. i wore lederhosen. when i first got on ancestry i was really surprised that i wasn't finding all of these germans in my tree. i decided to have my dna tested through ancestry dna. the big surprise was we're not german at all. 52% of my dna comes from scotland and ireland.

so, i traded in my lederhosen for a kilt. ancestry has many paths to discovering your story. get started for free at ancestry.com.

the white house is confirming tonight the second in command for isis has died in a u.s. air strike. haji mutaz was killed tuesday

while traveling in a vehicle near mow mosul. he was a primary coordinator for moving vehicles, weapons and explosives between iraq and syria. the white house says his death will adversely impact isis operations. president obama has picked up some very important support for his iran nuclear deal. new york congressman gerald nadler who is youish and a strong supporter of israel says he will back an agreement. this after president obama wrote to nadler pledging to keep military options on iran -- the president is seeking to corral enough votes to sustain a veto if it comes to that. kansas republican congressman mike pompeo tells fox news a second side deal allowing iran to avoid disclosing its past nuclear work or possible military dimensions until after

congress votes was intentional. the president's pentagon chief is using language rarely heard since the end of the cold war in assessing the threat russia poses to the u.s. correspondent kevin corke tonight from the presidential vacation compound on martha's vineyard on the possibility of a new cold war. >> reporter: for russian president vladimir putin, submersible rides to the dechts of the black sea are both a subtle message to his countrymen and stern warning to the west that russia sees itself through the cold war lens as two of the remaining superpowers. >> for a quarter century or so since the end of the cold war, we have not regarded russia as an antagonist. vladimir putin's russia behaves in many respects as -- in some respects and some very important respects as an antagonist. that is new. >> reporter: defense secretary ash carter warned that russia's behavior could send the world hurtling held long into a cold

war redux. putin grefd engaged u.s. military and war ships and is suspected of widespread hacking attempts of u.s. assets. add a massive nuclear arsenal, pentagon leaders say you've got all the ingredients for big trouble. >> you want to talk about a nation that could pose an existential threat to the united states, i'd have to point to russia. if you look at their behavior it's nothing short of alarming. >> reporter: alarming like partnering with iran. another world antagonist to whom moscow just announced the sale of 4 f 300 defensive missile systems. >> that's an opportunity for the russians to sell. the iranians look at it and say we're now in the new world. we have access to buying military equipment. we want to get the best. the russians are willing to el us. >> reporter: former u.s. secretary of state henry kissinger says it's the u.s. that needs to change the way it engages russia, not the other way around. in an interview with the nation national interests he said

breaking russia has become an objective for u.s. officials. the long-range purpose should be tonight great it. a post cold war wish for a relationship that seems to be reliving the past. >> where russia sees its interests as aligned with ours we can work with them and we'll continue to do that. >> reporter: mutual interests like the iran nuclear deal engaging north korea and even some counterterrorism efforts. but as a pentagon official told me today, bret, dealing with the kremlin is sort of like shaking hands with someone when they hold a knife behind their back with the other hand. bret? >> kevin docorke, thank you. still ahead, the plague isn't just for the history books. it's back. we'll tell you where. up next, the first female army

officials in france say three people were wounded today when a gunman opened fire in a high-speed train traveling from amsterdam to paris. two american passengers are being credited with subduing the gunmen. there is a report they are off duty u.s. military personnel. the pentagon so far is not confirming that. one of the americans is said to have sustained serious wounds. the suspect is a 26-year-old moroccan. he's said to have had an automatic weapon and a knife. the american military looks a lot different tonight than it did a day ago, a year ago, or 50 years ago. today history was made as the first females were ushered into one of the armed forces most prestigious units. correspondent jonathan serry has the story from fort benning, georgia. >> reporter: they are the first women to wear the prestigious ranger tab. in a ceremony first lieutenant shaye haver and captain kristen

griest graduated from the army's ranger school, ending its six decade history as an all male institution. >> i think if females continue to come to this course, they can be encouraged by what we have accomplished. but hopefully they're encouraged by the legacy that the ranger community has left. and that that's good enough. it was good enough to make us come. it's good enough to help us force ourselves through. >> reporter: the rangers had to endure weeks of rugged environments including woods, mountains and swamps. the amy says it held the women to the same standards as their male counterparts. >> what we've been very consistent on we said there will be no change to the standards. no change to the standards. and there weren't. >> no woman they know wanted to go to ranger school if they change the standards. because then it degrades what the tab means. it would lower training for everyone. and reduce that quality of training for the entire army. >> reporter: these developments at the ranger school are part of the military's assessment of plans to integrate women into roles traditionally reserved for men only. but the idea of training women

for combat makes some critics uneasy. >> we have two who are physical elites. they're unusually strong. but average women suffer injuries at rates double those of men. this is sort of like the commissioner of the nfl saying well, we've got two women through ranger training so let's have women in nfl football. >> reporter: the female rangers say they respect the ultimate decisions on where they can serve will be made by top brass at the pentagon. but captain griest says she hopes her performance in ranger school helps inform those decisions. bret? >> jonathan, thank you. as wildfires continue to scorch the west, officials in washington state are asking the public's help. resources are so overtaxed that the state is actually reviewing civilian officers to fight the blazes. volunteers began applying today. really this happened.

>> he broke my floaty. >> i know. >> a mama bear and her five cubs decided to beat the heat in rockaway township, new jersey by taking over a backyard pool. the cubs not only got wet as you see but they played with the toys and the slide and the swing set. the kids as you heard there were not too happy about sharing their pool floats. ever have one of those days? well, maybe 91 of them? when you just don't feel like doing anything? you can get paid for that if you work for uncle sam. details next in the grapevine.

examiner a resigned his post before he was scheduled to be interviewed by the investigators, telling a co-worker the union said he could keep his personnel file clean if he quit before the interview. the i.g. has recommended the office try to reclaim the salary. the u.s. attorney in virginia will not prosecute the case. nasa is reaching into its past and storage closet to find parts for the international space station. four water tanks are being salvaged from the shuttle endeavor which is permanently on display in the california science center after completing its final flight in 2011. the tanks are said to be in working order since they were designed for many more missions than the shuttle actually flew. the museum was happy to help out. "the concept of taking something from an old shuttle and making it available for use in space is something that we think is great." finally, a century-old message in a bottle has finally reached its destination. inside was this postcard asking that it be sent for the marine

biological association of the u.k., which the finders did. the bottle was released between 1904 and 1906 as part of a study of sea currents. one schilling was offered as a reward for returning the message and was sent to the couple who found it. the guinness book of world records is investigating to see fit is the oldest message in a bottle to be recovered. health officials in california are investigating a second possible new case of a very old and deadly disease at one of this country's most popular tourist destinations. correspondent claudia cowen reports tonight from yosemite national park. >> along with other sites at yosemite national park, visitors are seeing signs warning of plague. within the past two months, two visitor ors staying at the catch ground were diagnosed with the disease. both are being treated with antibiotics and are expected to

recover. the plague is carried by rodents like squirrels and chipmunks and their fleas. it's the fleas that give to it people. symptoms include fever, headache and swollen lymph nodes. it's unclear where in yosemite the visitors were bitten, but infected squirrels were found in two popular campgrounds. those sites were closed while the fleas were exterminated and are open again now, even as park officials educate campers about this ancient and scary disease. >> we know that where plague is endemic there is a risk. it's very rare. but we ask people to make sure when they see rodents they stay away from rodents. they don't touch them. they don't handle them. if you see a dead rodent, please make sure you tell park authorities right away. >> reporter: it's the first case of human plague in california in almost a decade. the first at yosemite since 1959. and most patients recover, unlike in the middle ages when the so-called black death devastated europe. >> back in the 14th century when 15 million people died of the plague, the fleas were on rats. and there was a problem with

public health and public hygiene. nowadays the plague is rare. and we see about seven cases per year in the united states. this year it's about eight so far. which is not really out of the ordinary. >> reporter: but this summer, three people have died of the disease. two in colorado, one person in new mexico. and three other patients are currently being treated for the plague, all here in the western united states. the takeaway here, check your pet for fleas and stay away from the squirrels. bret? >> claudia, thank you. south african olympic star oscar miss topistorius was not d today just eight months into his five year sentence for killing his girlfriend, model reeva steenkamp in 2013. the story's release was put on hold wednesday. we're told the man called the blade runner will not be able to get out until an appeal is heard in november and that prosecutors hope to overturn his

manslaughter conviction and have it replaced with one of murder. the biggest crowd of the political season is expected tonight to see donald trump. we'll talk about that and the rest of the 2016 news when the panel joins me after a break.

two things are happening because donald trump is in the race. number one, because of donald trump all of the folks in the media are talking about illegal immigration. he has an incredible ability to cause the media to talk about an issue that is a serious problem. but a second benefit of donald trump's being in the race is the attention it is drawing. 24 million people watched that first debate. i got to tell you, coming out of the debate, the momentum, the energy our campaign has seen is incredible. >> from ted cruz talking about donald trump while he's at the iowa state fair today.

as you take a live look into alabama, the stadium starting to fill up there. the campaign, the trump campaign, says they've received 42,000 rsvps for what would be a record crowd for either party. and as you heard senator cruz, trump is leading as far as the issues, too. talking a lot about immigration. take a listen to him on o'reilly. >> when people are illegally in the country, they have to go. now, the good ones -- and there are plenty of good ones -- will work it so it's expedited. we can expedite it where three come back in legally. >> talking there about deporting illegal immigrants. here's what donald trump told news max in november of 2012. "the democrats didn't have a policy for dealing with illegal immigrants. but what they did have going for them is they weren't mean-spirited about it. he, mitt romney, had a crazy policy of self-deportation which was maniacal."

let's bring in our panel david cant cantonese, laura ingram and charles krauthammer. >> charles? >> cruz is right. the thing he has done is he's brought unbelievable, unrelenting wall-to-wall coverage of the republicans, of trump, that was true of the debate. what cruz didn't say -- and i think this is the real down side -- it has brought attention to the immigration debate. and in this debate, i'm with the donald trump of november 2012 when today he says he wants to deport all 11 million. and as we just heard, he said even self-deportation which was the romney position, what did he say he was a crazy policy? maniacal and mean-spirited. i think if that's manage manage and mean-spirited, forced mass deportation is much worse. and if that's the position that

is now the center of republican debate, it's catastrophic. >> laura. >> 57% of likely republican voters, which is the key metric, today told rasmussen that they think donald trump is going to be the nominee of the party. now, it's a long way to the nomination. we've got a year. and as we heard from the jeb camp today in their piece that was clearly encouraged in "politico," they're prepared to do whatever is necessary to terminate any problem that comes to the fore. and donald trump is a problem. and so i think we can expect to see with a huge bush largesse, they have money to blow and can raise a lot more if necessary, they're going to do exactly what charles laid out. you said this and now you say this. what's the real donald trump? is it the maniacal policy or something else.

he'll say when the going gets tough, jeb. but when you govern you're going to do a lot of things the people don't think are conservative. i think he has a long road. i think people are pre-dicking that he's going to be the nominee. i think it's going to be very difficult for all parties and a lot of people will be very unhappy but i think cruz is right. there's a conversation that will be happening about a really important issue. >> but you talk a lot about immigration. and on this issue, is this sellable, this forced deportation that he's talking about now? >> i don't think -- i don't know if that's quite what he said. he said people have to go home. what position that will take. i mean, who knows what process that will take? i'm not sure. but what i do know is that those people lining up to that -- in that stadium in alabama, 35,000 or 20,000, maybe it's 20,000. who knows? they're a lot closer to jeff sessions' position on immigration who gave the okay to trump's position. they're a lot closer to sessions than they are to jeb bush. >> there was also, david, other

candidates who are being forced into different kind of positions. this is rubio and walker today talking about the issue of anchor babies. >> anchor babies. people are talking about anchor babies. >> these are 13 million -- those are human beings. and it's ultimately they're people. they're not just statistics. they're human beings with stories. >> let's put that aside for a moment. >> birthright citizenship, one of the things that makes america exceptional? >> yes. and that's why i'm not in favor of repealing 14th amendment. >> i'm not take a position on it one way or other. i'm saying until you secure the border and enforce the laws, any discussion about anything else is really looking past the very things we have to do. >> he came out the other day and said get rid of birthright citizenship and a few hours later you said me, too. >> no. actually what i said earlier that day is i said a lot of the things he's talked about i talked about months ago. >> were you talking about birthright citizenship months ago? >> no, ways talking about the bigger issue of immigration. i talked about securing the

border, enforcing the laws. >> so getting all different kinds of places. >> the immediate impact donald trump has had is he has rattled these guys, especially this week. if you saw jeb bush he said he's going to run a joyful campaign. not go on negative attacks. there he was in new hampshire the other night hitting donald trump saying he supported higher taxes. scott walker, unintimidated is the name of his book. that's how he's running as a fighter. he wouldn't take a position on birthright citizenship after a few days of sort of showing both ways. these guys are all tangled up. and they didn't think this was the calculus they were going to have to make. the point you said before about trump, they've already raised these issues with him that he's been a flip-flopper on cable news every night he's taken these questions and people in focus groups are saying they don't care if he's flipped. that's how mad people are. so the jeb people may be plotting to go on the air with this, but the question is is he impervious to the traditional political attack that has taken

down the other flip-floppers in history. >> in fact, trump tweeted out about jeb bush and using that term. jeb bush signed memos saying not to use the term anchor babies, offensive. now he wants to use it because i used it. stay true to yourself. i mean, he tweaks each one of these candidates every day. and it's pretty amazing. >> look. even assuming that this is a winning issue, assuming that deporting 11 million people which you'd expect might happen in syria won't happen in the h u.s. even assuming it's a winning issue, even assuming the repeal of the 14th amendment is a winning issue, are these issues that republicans want to actually advance? do they actually think they're going to win a general election on these issues? i mean, the deportation i think is simply a scandal. i think everybody knows that. a, it's not going to happen. b, it shouldn't happen in this

country. but we are not discussing the issue of anchor babies or birthright citizenship. it is a sideshow because it's a symptom. if you control the border those numbers will dwindle. second, the issue is not the baby itself. it's the laws, the statutes, which are changeable. they're not constitutional. that change one baby into an imported village because of the preferences that we give to families. that ought to be the issue. that ought to be what we are discussing and that's what you can change. >> you're saying congress can change it. >> the statute is not a constitutional issue. >> there's a debate about whether the 14th amendment has to be repealed. i know a lot of people glibly say -- that's not actually been settled. they could do a whole hour on the jurisprudence surrounding that. >> it's been around for 150 years. >> we didn't have a problem with illegal immigration in the mid 1800s. it wasn't an issue and wasn't

directed as the slaves who deserved to stay here. it was an important clause and the author of the clause howard jacob said it didn't apply to foreigners in the united states. but this is a long conversation. but back to the point trump is resonating, charles. trump's rise annoys a lot of people in this town, and i get it. but the people in this town who have been propping up two parties that have failed the middle class, failed them on the globalism game where these trade deals have absolutely not delivered what they promised to deliver to the middle class. failed them on enforcing the border. failed them on all these ideas that america was going to export its values around the world and things were going to get a lot calmer. we see our power diminishing, we see our economic power diminishing in the home front. and people are frustrated. and you're right. they're ready to throw in with a guy who has all these conflicting positions maybe because the guys who said they were going to be consistent weren't and they're not fighting for the people. >> it's easy to go and attack washington. and it's a clever dodge. the issue here is birthright

citizenship. the issue is not the citizenship of itself it's the chain migration. and that ought to be what we are discussing. >> and bush and obama didn't stop it. neither stopped it. neither did mcconnell or boehner when they had a chance. people are tired of it. >> that does not change the fact that talking about changing the birth birth rooit right citizenship. >> -- >> when people break into your home you don't allow them to force you to take care of their family. most people wouldn't do that in their own home and they don't want us to do it in the united states. >> you think migration is an issue? >> it's a huge issue in addition to the birthright problem. i talk about these issues on the radio. >> this going to be a super quick lightning round in the next segment. breaking news, jake sullivan and cheryl mills will be interviewed by the benghazi select committee on september

3rd and 4th. this i is according to sources. those are top aids for hillary clinton. so that will be interesting. next up as we said, a quick lightning round.

vladimir putin and a suboff the coast of crim i crimea. remember when there was the back and forth how crimea was maybe not going to go to russia. it is. they have new passports and a new time zone there and the russian president was there this week. this as the defense secretary calls russian an tag gone -- antagonist. it is excybil threat to the united

excontinual threat to the united states. this isn't being talked about as i see on the campaign trail, russia, you know, when jimmy carter weighs in for a day, definitely going to get news. i have been out with these 2016 candidates and if you are talking about a foreign policy issue, which is tough in a campaign at this point anyway, you are going to talk about isis. so, you know, you don't really hear -- you are not really hearing the depth on these issues yet. i think this will come later on. there are some groups holding national security forums that it comes up on but it's not on the tip of the sphere of the 2016. >> i you tell you, lori, it's on the tip of every guy you talk to at the pentagon. odierno talked about it when he left. >> the reset has failed. this should be used in the campaign by anybody running. vladimir putin is a nationalist supremely. the mother land is rising again. they are making all sorts of deals. getting that gas over to europe and he is going to use every inch of opportunity he can to flex his muscle. i don't think anyone knows who what to do with it in the united states. >> charles?

>> what's distressing is that it took this administration six and a half years to wake up to the fact that everybody knows that putin is an antagonist of the u.s. instead, in the meantime, we have given away the missile defense system in eastern europe. we did the re-set. we essentially did nothing. didn't even supply the ukrainians with weapons for self-defense in ukraine. crimea, and now we are pretending that russia helped us on iran. it's selling the most advanced missile defenses to the iranians. a total collapse of that policy. >> quickly, winners and losers. winner first. >> winner is iran, the revelation of the secret deal with the iaea where it gets to inspect its own facility for the the testing and production of nuclear detonation devices. a sign of the utter collapse of opposition in the negotiations. the loser, russia, venezuela, and texas. as oil hits $4,000.

>> laura, winners and losers. >> winner trump. "time" magazine. tom every poll except ohio poll where he is down seven points to kasich. loser, everyone who who is not jeb or donald trump on the campaign trail. they have not been able to break through. even with some bright spots ted cruz and ben carson. they are going to need a lot more money in order to do so. >> winners and losers? >> winner ben carson. we moved him up in our u.s. news rankings of candidates this week. i think he was an over performer and quiet performner that debate who came out than i even thought in post debate polling. loser is scott walker who just today couldn't take a position and to me is looking increasingly waffling and weak to donors out there. >> that is it for the panel. but stay tuned for your friday feedback.

every friday we do it, your friday feedback. on the markets, we asked if you were ready to bail on stocks, ann alexander says too early to bail. nobody was buying, just selling. i'm optimistic that it's all good. regarding trump and clinton coverage we asked if the media are in love with trump. chad says i think the media are mesmerized by trump. not in love. good press for trump's campaign. lisa thompson probably not an accurate phrase in love with you about they have to respect him because he doesn't put up with their junk. on russia, we asked if vladimir putin is an immediate threat to the u.s. one response, is he a threat and it seems like the whole world is standing still and letting it happen. and on the first female army rangers, we asked if women should be allowed in elite units, if they can do the job, whole job, no excuses, sure. thanks for the friday feedback. we do it every week. thanks for inviting us into your home tonight. that it for this "special report." fair, balanced and unafraid.

make it a great weekend. greta goes "on the record" right now. the hurricane is now hitting in south florida. a category 1 storm making landfall just south of ft. lauderdale. shepard, the wind has picked up considerably in the last 20 minutes. you can't even turn your face really in this direction because the wind and sand is blowing pretty hard. >> the better model of we're in pretty good agreement shifting more towards southeast louisiana and mississippi. >> out across a
