♪ ♪ ♪ her home state delegates piled on today. more on her rough reception and e-mail fallout. was a hack a russian conspiracy to ruin the election? today among dnc speakers, first lady michelle obama and hillary clinton's rival bernie sanders. he is set to appear as thousands of his supporters gather in the streets of philadelphia.

so what will he say and can he bring the party together? donald trump holding a town hall this hour with his vice presidential nominee mike pence. we will take you there. let's get to it. good afternoon from wells fargo center. democrats who were mocking chaos in cleveland aren't laughing any more. day one of the dnc. the theme, united together. in philly, there are threats of protest against hillary clinton. the party chair woman is out of a job, and clinton camp accuses russia of trying to help rival donald trump. the scandal blew up over the weekend, leaked e-mails showed democratic party officials supported hillary clinton over her rival, bernie sanders, something he has been claiming all along. the e-mails suggest party officials considered questioning bernie sanders' belief in god. the party chair woman, debbie wasserman schultz, wrote an e-mail that sanders is not going

to be president. she also wrote that the independent senator has never been a member of the democratic party and has no understanding of what we do. she toured the stage last night ahead of gaflg the convention today. now she backed out of that. she says she will step down as party chair woman after the convention. so she has resigned effective friday. seems that's not good enough for some of the democrats here. >> we have a big presence. okay. everybody, let's hear from the speaker. >> thank you all so much. >> well, it didn't get better.

the boos came as she spoke to delegates from her home state of florida. now some sanders supporters are threatening protests to show the differences in the party. he is set to address tonight. as for the link itself, sources tell us it is related to a hack attack on democratic party headquarters. sources say it looks like the russian government is to blame. that has the clinton campaign accusing russia and its president, vladimir putin, of medicine he willing in american politics. they say he is pushing for trump to win. >> russian state actors were feeding e-mails to hackers for the purpose of helping donald trump. >> for its part, donald trump's campaign denies any links with the russians. donald trump junior accused democrats of trying to smear his

father. >> it goes to show you their moral compass. they'll say anything to win this. this is time and time again lie after lie. he won't say i hear this. we hear experts, his house cat once said this is involved. >> the involvement with the e-mail link is not coming from experts or house cats but straight from federal sources to fox news. we have live team fox coverage. katherine her i think. and they're trying to distance themselves from debbie wasserman schultz. they seem to think things might be okay at the florida breakfast this morning. i don't know why they thought that. there was nothing to suggest that would go well and it didn't. >> you're right, shep. it is a stunning series of events when you have the dnc chair woman resigning yesterday on the eve of the convention, then we expected this afternoon when they gavelled in the convention that debbie wasserman schultz would do the honors. then wasserman schultz toured

the stage late last night after being pressured to resign, the plan was to gavel in and out the convention, wanted a speaking role as well, then she would step down from the position she held more than five years. that might have changed after she addressed her home state delegates. >> florida is the most significant battleground state. hillary clinton will be president of the united states of america. >> clearly after that breakfast happened this morning with her home state delegates, there had to be concern with democratic party leadership about what some of the other states around the arena that were more pro-bernie sanders, how they would react to her gaveling this afternoon. they didn't want that optic to start the convention. >> bernie sanders supporters seem to be getting something they wanted, something they really wanted, among other things, a voice. >> several things they wanted badly, were one, wasserman schultz out of a job. they felt she had been unfair in the primary process, favoring

the clinton campaign over the sanders campaign. they also wanted bernie sanders to have a prime time speaking spot, which he gets tonight, but still, they do not sound happy. >> we have got to defeat donald trump. and we have got to elect hillary clinton and tim kaine. >> the opening night of the convention, we will see some of the democrats' biggest names and perhaps some of the best speakers, new jersey senator cory booker, first lady michelle obama, elizabeth warren from massachusetts, a finalist to be her running mate, and bernie sanders. he appears to be in a tough spot. he has to be true to his followers in the arena and watching at home, but he is also going to try to help with unity, shep. >> he tried to help with unity

awhile ago. heard him speaking, even bernie sanders was getting booed, not that he was getting booed but the situation was getting booed. to say they're displeased is an understatement. it is different than the rnc. these people are fuming. >> absolutely. they wanted a lot of change in the party. heard the system was rigged, a word you heard both sides, e-mails leaked before the convention reaffirm their concerns, so they weren't just imagining things, they confirmed what they were believing. >> it is timing. it is astounding. the fbi is investigating the hacking. sources tell fox news it is unlikely any one person was behind the attack, that's how sophisticated the breach was. let's get more from catherine herridge in washington this afternoon. >> this morning an fbi spokesperson telling rors they are investigating the dnc hack, the compromise of this nature and scale is something they take

seriously and the bureau aims to bring charges against those responsible. a state department spokesperson addressed the russian connection a short time ago. >> issues of cyber security remain a topic of discussion between us and russian interlock wi ters on a continuous basis. the matter is under investigation by the fbi. >> investigative sources working on that compromise tell fox news they believe the communications were likely seized by a group with ties to the russian government and the same group of hackers probably behind two earlier breaches of the dnc which included staff of opposition research about donald trump. >> what do we know of connection to wikileaks, catherine? >> julian assange told a network in june he would release more e-mails before the election and also claimed they have deleted records from her unsecured personal server about clinton

foundation that were not handed over to the state department. >> we have upcoming leaks in relation to hillary clinton, which is great. we had a very good year. >> some of those not in public domain you plan to put out? >> we have e-mails related to hillary clinton which are pending publication, that's correct. >> reporter: and these documents, shows which e-mails are withheld under freedom of information act, fox news reported in february 22 top secret e-mails were circulated among clinton and her senior aides, including jake sullivan there on the left, now a campaign adviser, and her personal attorney cheryl mills. this is information so damaging to national security it cannot be released under any circumstances. bottom line, this breach of the dnc and what wikileaks has, my contacts say they believe

there's been a coordinated effort by these groups to release the e-mails in a strategic way in terms of timing, shep. >> thank you very much. i want to turn to abby phillips for "the washington post." the timing of the leaks, what are you hearing from the campaign. >> they believe the connection to the russian government and timing is intended to embarrass them. this came out on the friday before the convention started. they do expect there will be more leaks and that it could go on several more weeks or months. >> i could speculate, i could use other information that i have to gather an answer to this, but i'm wondering if what they're telling you about why they think the russian government would be working against them. >> they have been making the point quite some time that there are connections between the trump campaign and russian government, they're linking trump campaign manager, paul manafort, to russian sympathizers. they have been making that point, clinton campaign manager

made that point sunday on the sunday shows. i think you'll continue to hear more about that. separate and apart from the e-mail leak, this is the point they want to make. they want to make the point about trump suggesting he is too close to the russian government. >> they're actually suggesting that the russians are now trying to interfere with the american political system and doing it openly. >> absolutely. but it is not just them, there are a lot of security experts that say this leak and the connections in the met a data of e-mails to russian hackers does suggest they're trying to influence the election. the question is is it to favor trump or just to influence the outcome in some way. >> that's not something we have a way to know yet. on the matter of the content itself, debbie wasserman schultz had always claimed that the dnc did not have a horse in the race, if you will. the other side always claimed it did, and all you had to do was look at the scheduling of debates to draw your own

conclusion if you wished to do so. are they beginning to admit they were favoring a clinton nomination and were sanders nomination as the e-mails suggest? >> well, the democratic national committee is locked down. they're not saying much. >> can't get to them. >> not saying anything at all. this is a crisis situation for them right now and they're trying to manage it best they can. when you talk to other democrats at the convention, they readily acknowledge this situation revealed a party not neutral and that that, in and of itself, was damaging to the party. the party structure must remain neutral in the primaries, they acknowledged that it shows it is absolutely -- >> who would have thought the convention would start like this. >> absolutely. it is the kind of chaos they said wouldn't happen. that this would be party unity all the way. >> we will take you out for a

look at the demonstrations on the street where it is nice and cool, like a nice spring day, if you like humidity and 97 degrees. and why some cops claim the city is taking better care of the protesters than the police. that's coming up on a day of unity from philadelphia! day one of the democratic national convention. great to have you in. guess what i just did? built a sandcastle? ha, no, i switched to geico and got more. more? 24/7 access online, on the phone or with the geico app. that is more. go get some mud... all that "more" has to be why they're the second-largest auto insurer. everybody likes more. mhm, i think so. geico. expect great savings and a whole lot more.

the heat has not stopped

protesters in philadelphia outside the democratic national convention. hundreds gather to march the streets of the city today. >> hell no, dnc, we won't vote for hillary. >> you hear that? hell no, dnc, we won't vote for hillary. they're angry over the leaked e-mails showing democratic party officials talking about ways to hurt sanders in the primary. secret service set up a perimeter around wells fargo center where most things are happening. only people with credentials can get in the area. rick eleven thal is covering it. >> reporter: one of the areas designated for protesters to gather in, black men for bernie, occupy dnc. a large group of demonstrators made their way south on broad street from city hall.

police are providing an escort with bicycles, these are demonstrators that were at city hall in strong numbers, protesting pro bernie. there was another group that walked across the ben franklin bridge but didn't block traffic as advertised, they were on the pedestrian side, they didn't have enough numbers, less than 100 people. we talked to police commissioner ross and he continued to talk about how dangerous the heat can be, including for his officers. listen. >> these people are professionals, the police officers, but it is very challenging. i am keeping my eye on them only because these folks are tough. sometimes they don't want to tell you when they're hurting. concerned about them, too. some of the folks may overestimate what they're out here to do. >> reporter: and it is hot, as you mentioned. heat index approaching triple digits. may get heavy thunderstorms again this afternoon. >> it has been peaceful though, right, rick? >> reporter: say that again?

>> it has been peaceful, right? >> reporter: oh, absolutely. zero arrests so far according to philadelphia police department. you can see the marchers are on broad street, this is a planned march. they're getting that escort from authorities. a lot of folks have been told what to do if they're arrested. we attended a freedom school. they got courses how to prepare for the possibility of being arrested and met with a team of lawyers offering legal help if they get busted. >> 15 years ago promised over and over they would arrest no one, arrest 420 plus people and arrested them in a way that made it clear there was a long-standing plan in place at the same time they were promising no arrests. so the history is telling the truth is bad when it comes to conventions in philly. >> reporter: zero arrests so far, shepard.

they say as long as they don't hurt anybody or damage property. >> thank you. ahead, new polls show whether donald trump got bounce in his convention. you may have heard, he got a bounce. tiny little bounce? no, not a tiny little bounce. by quite a lot. we continue coverage from wells fargo center in philadelphia. your dentures seem to fit fine when you first put them on.

but, during the day, they can move! in the morning... noon... evening... enough is enough! it's time to use fixodent plus adhesives. with just one application... ...they give you superior hold, even at the end of the day. so you can keep enjoying your evenings. fixodent. strong more like natural teeth. fixodent and forget it.

now we have two national polls out today and donald trump leads in both of them. the first is a cnn orc survey, has donald trump leading by three points in a head to head matchup. see the numbers there, 48% to hillary clinton 45%. that's a six point bump for donald trump since the convention. then the cbs news poll shows it

tighter, trump one point over hillary clinton, 44 to 43, when you include people that lean toward either candidate. without leaners, it is tied. according to gallop, he had a five point bump. what matters is state by state elections, joining us usa today senior political reporter. what do you make of this? >> the average is five points. but there's a difference between republicans and democrats. republicans historically have lower than average. so this is pretty good for a republican candidate. however, it is one poll. what we look at is a trend. certainly depending how things shake out here, able to get tabs on the e-mail controversy, hillary clinton can also expect a bump and we will reassess after both conventions are over. >> the conventional wisdom has been the last six cycles i have

been covering, every time experts tell me don't pay attention until september. but normally the democratic convention is later than this. and i wonder when you think polls will matter again because all of the experts, right, left, democrat, republican, all of them, polsters say this is not when to watch. when does it mean something? >> every cycle is unique. looking at this particular cycle, i think once past the convention and knowing who the vp candidates are, you get into perhaps the first debate. after the first debate, we're going to see what kind of punches the candidates can land on each other. there's expectation that gee, my person is really awesome in a debate setting. hillary clinton's first debate where she was definitely pronounced that that was a great debate for her if not the winner, and donald trump as well, kind of was dominant in his debate. once we get past probably the

first or second debate. we will have a good sense how this is shaking out. >> do you have a memory of when that first debate is? >> i was dancing around that, shep. >> i'll look it up on the next commercial break and let you know. here is what i was wondering. since you mentioned debates, donald trump i don't believe ever debated one on one ever. >> no. and that is the reason hillary clinton's team is optimistic about the debate. they feel when it comes to policy and not showmanship that she can run circles around him drilling down on what her plan is for combatting isis overseas, what her detailed jobs and infrastructure plan is, and the debate moderators will feel compelled to draw more substance out of both candidates frankly because shep, you're covering this as well, i don't know where they stand, what their specific

plans are on a lot of -- >> i don't either. >> -- on the most important issues of our time, that's our job as jurs to use the debates to give the american people a sense of how they differ on current policy. >> have you seen any movement. i have been looking. have you seen movement state by state. certain states matter a lot. hillary clinton can get florida. if donald trump can get pennsylvania, he is spending time in pennsylvania, saw where hillary was over the weekend, she was in tampa one day, miami the next day, i mean, those states matter. >> looking broadly at the map. you have the west and northeast and the south. >> generally speaking. >> so it does come down to those traditional, we talk about spanning the map, having a

different map, no, it comes back to the same states it always has. the question here, the reason people are looking at pennsylvania, there's that possibility that even though republicans haven't taken pennsylvania in something like eight cycles. >> a long time. >> a long time, there is that opportunity based on the fact that they think surrounding states there was higher participation rate among whites, not in pennsylvania. they think -- republicans think there's room for growth and they could have an upset when it comes to the rust belt. we have yet to see that, but that's where growth potential is. that's why in pennsylvania in particular numbers are so tight now. >> they are. nice to see you, heidi, in person. two weeks in a row. thank you. ahead, we'll take you to virginia where donald trump and his running mate mike pence are having a town hall meeting. there's mike pence there.

with my moderate to severe crohn's disease,... ...i was always searching for ways to manage my symptoms. i thought i had it covered. then i realized managing was all i was doing. when i finally told my doctor, he said humira was for people like me who have tried other medications,... but still experience the symptoms of moderate to severe crohn's disease. in clinical studies, the majority of patients on humira saw significant symptom relief... ...and many achieved remission. humira can lower your ability to fight infections... ...including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers,... including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions,... ...and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb,... ...hepatitis b, are prone to infections, ...or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. if you're still just managing your symptoms, ask your gastroenterologist about humira.

with humira, remission is possible. as promised, donald trump having a town hall in roanoke, virginia with mike pence. he is at the podium. he just started, i will tell you what he said so far, talked about polls, how the campaign is now leading. he also said how disloyal crooked hillary has been. >> well, that wasn't so bad, that wasn't so bad. here's the story. so debbie was totally loyal to hillary. and hillary threw her under a bus, didn't take more than five minutes to make that decision. man, i don't want her covering my back, i tell you right now. true.

now the other thing i'm surprised at, you know, it's nice when you're not reading speeches, isn't it, guys? i can talk about current events, this stuff happened ten minutes ago. if you're reading speeches, i see these guys, i dealt with a lot of them. i haven't been a very political person, but for 14 months, i have been on this side. they loved me when i was a contributor. i would give millions of dollars. i was a contributor. i like this better. i like being nonestablishment better. but with bernie when you look at what happened, the thing that surprises me most is how he folded. i thought he was hanging on tough, tough. then they find these horrible e-mails talking about his religion and is he jewish, is he atheist, and that's not going to play well.

man. that's rough. and that's not as bad as some of the other ones, and i said there's no way that bernie sanders shows up to make a speech. there's no way that he can ever endorse crooked hillary any more, right? there's no way. and today i see him trying to make the case. and his own people are out there booing. okay? they're out there booing. so it's pretty bad. then i'll tell you, hillary clinton, i have been saying this for a long time and i got it from bernie sanders because he said she suffers from bad judgment. right? bad judgment. she suffers from very bad judgment. her instincts are bad, they're no good. her instincts are defective. her instincts are defective. but she's got -- she's low energy. she actually is low energy. she will go home, she'll take a nap for four or five hours and

go home. no nap for trump. no nap. we don't have time. we don't have time! did you ever see hillary where she comes out and reads a teleprompter, she will go home, don't see her three or four days, then she comes back. i remember in iowa, they put three or four people around a table, everyone would say i would like to ask a question, no, no, no, you're too tough. this is what we have. how do you think isis will react? i don't think so. not going to be good. we have tough enemies out there, tough, mean, vicious, horrible, horrible people. these are horrible, horrible human beings. we need toughness, folks. it's about time. we need strength, we need toughness. we need smarts. we need warmth. we need compassion. we need everything. we need everything. but we don't need somebody that

goes home and takes naps. we don't need naps. what did surprise me is that bernie was so soft on this. i was amazed. i watched the speech, you know, we must vote for hillary clinton. i mean, the hatred he got, why would he do that. what do i have to do with it, i don't care, whatever he wants to do. but could you imagine if what's taking place now with the democrats took place in cleveland. and i have to tell you, cleveland did an amazing job. thank you ohio, thank you, cleveland. what a job! i spoke to the police chief calvin, he did a phenomenal job there, and the secret service, working with the secret service, what a job they did. but cleveland is a beautiful place. i was so happy. we had no problem. they were trying to show, they showed one square, a big square and they bring the cameras in

close because they don't want to show the beautiful grass with no people on it, and you know why? i'll tell you why, people like our message. people like our message. they really like it. if you look at philadelphia, i went to school in philadelphia, i love philadelphia. if you look at philadelphia, what they're going through right now looks like a lot of people, it is 100 degrees there. speaking of that, by the way, i don't know if you saw, did you know i went to the other room. you have a second room, and outside you have over a thousand people, it is 104 degrees out. so think of it. first time i ever did it. i said let's go to the second room first, right? that's the anti-room. but let's go because it is the overflow room. i went in there, we surprised them, we were nice. but we love these people. you know what i also like, i don't have to do it later. and outside we have a lot of

people. i wish they'd let them in. the fire department won't let them in because of fire regulation, which is standard. outside, we have speakers out there. i think the speakers are burning up, folks. it is hot. i wish the fire marshall, where is he? is he around here? come on. if they could get in, fire marshall. i promise there's nothing like -- i feel badly. we have people standing outside. you can get a few more people inside. if they could, let them in. so that's the way a builder would talk. so you have the firing of the head of the dnc. and that was a vicious firing. a lot of things happened. you had her firing. hillary clinton's total disloyalty in play. people won't say that in the media. if i did something with raines

priebus, can you imagine if i fired raines? i wouldn't do that, he has done such a great job. reince priebus, what a job he has done. and i always used to say for months i have been saying i'll take raines over debbie. and everyone said oh, but debbie is a superstar. so is raines, turns out debbie is gone, but the disloyalty is incredible. and i mean that. honestly, whether you like it or not, she worked hard to rig the system so that hillary got it. it's true, right? it's true. no, it's true. she worked very, very hard to rig the system. little did she know that china, russia, one of our many, many friends came in and hacked the hell out of us. can you imagine? can you imagine what they're hacking? i guarantee we'll find the

33,000 e-mails. why did hillary get rid of her middle name, huh? hillary rotten clinton. rotten clinton. hillary rotten clinton. maybe that's why. it is too close. it is too close. you think mike pence would say this? i don't think so. by the way, did i do a good job with mike pence? him and his family, what a high quality person. you know, you have to vet people, right? and we vetted mike and they came back with many pages on certain people. many pages. oh, i'd like to write a book. many, many pages. with mike they came back with

like nothing. he's like the most perfect human being, this guy. i said mike, did you ever do anything wrong in your whole life? no, i don't think so. he's the best guy. that guy is great. i love this guy. i love him! i love him! but you know what i really like about mike? so listen to this. to me a very important thing is her bad judgment. now, whether you like her choice, tim kaine, nobody knows who he is. he has done a terrible job for virginia. i assume they said oh, he was picked because of virginia. virginia is very important and i am doing well here. hey, i am employing a lot of people here and they don't employ anybody. i spent a lot of money in potomac falls, sterling, that area. i mean, i spent a lot of money. we have great, great things

happening. next year we have the senior pga championship coming, thousands and thousands of people will come to virginia and spend a lot of money. thank you, i love you too, darling. but just think of it. so hillary clinton has almost a 50% of the people want a progressive. okay. we don't have to like that, but that's okay, that's where they are. they want to give everything away and raise your taxes. that's what happens. no, no, she will have a tax raise. i have the largest tax cut of anyone running for office, republican or democrat. okay? but hillary clinton, hillary clinton will have a tax cut that is not there. it will be a tax cut times 20 in reverse like a rocket ship. we have the biggest tax cut proposed in the last four years, and we're going to get it through, get most of it through. i tell you what, i'm going to try to get all of it through.

we have -- it is policy, put out there. doesn't mean there's a little negotiation, because we have to negotiate, but hillary clinton will have one of the biggest tax increases in the history of the country. what she's proposing you're going to have to pay for, very simple. now, maybe after she gets rid of bernie get rid of all this stuff. which doesn't help you, by the way. but what she's proposing, she needs to have a massive, massive tax increase. nobody ever talks about that. notice she never talks about who is going to pay for it and how they're going to pay. statistically, she's going to need a major tax cut. to me, something that's interesting. 50% of that party is bernie sanders almost. and her people, they fall asleep. they're watching her. with bernie's people, they're really out there. say what you want about bernie sanders, he got it on free

trade. he got it. free trade. now, i'm totally a free trade, i believe in free trade. they get it wrong because they don't say it properly, but i want smart trade. i want to trade with other countries but i don't want to lose $500 million a year with china. thank you, china, we love you very much, but we're not going to lose $500 million. i don't want a trade imbalance with japan where they send us millions of cars and we send them some beef and then they send it back, then we send wheat. they send cars, we send wheat. we're sending a lot of wheat. the trade imbalance is massive. with mexico, we have an unbelievably big trade amount. they kill us at the border. they're killing us at the border and we have one of the biggest trade imbalances, and what happens? what happens? i'm not even including the drugs. the drugs are pouring across. i wanted to say to new hampshire and i got very friendly with

people in new hampshire, i will never forget that, that's an amazing group of people, and i said what's your biggest problem. heroin across the southern border. i said heroin? new hampshire? you look at new hampshire. >> the news of the day regarding the convention and the situation. i want to go to carl. before i do, remember the matter of who will gavel in the convention, earlier the word was that debbie wasserman schultz, the dnc chairman who stepped down today effective friday, earlier today the word was she would gavel here as planned. and nobody thought that was a good idea on the floor. then she went to the florida breakfast, got booed and heckled. then they said she won't be doing that. abc news and fox news confirmed, stephanie rawlings blake, mayor of baltimore, maryland will gavel us in today. she will be doing what it is the dnc chairman normally does, acting chairman? i don't think so. in fact, that's not the case.

she's just gaveling us in. carl cameron is in sale emwhere they're having an event. >> reporter: first about the debbie wasserman schultz stuff, for her to have gone to the podium, tried to get the gavel down might have proven impossible given tenor of bernie supporters. might have had a hard time getting to the podium if they found out she was in the building. had that happened, politically what's left of her career was in jeopardy, facing re-election as house members do, and the possibility of her losing her seat could go through theif she in the convention, they would get booed by so much of the convention floor. so that's what that's about. you heard what donald trump was saying, he is capitalizing on this unrest at the democratic party, saying bernie sanders essentially copped out. he was in the race and now he's going to endorse hillary clinton, make big speeches about her, even though his own

supporters are booing hillary clinton and wasserman schultz as trump said has been fired viciously, a little of the apprentice and campaign rhetoric mixed together. this is exactly what the republicans were begging for, that there would be some upheaval to eclipse what happened in cleveland last week, and boy, what does it. ted cruz and john kasich look like peanuts in terms of lack of unity compared to what's happening in the democratic party now. hillary clinton's got a lot of criticism about her. one of the things not said much, she is not a particularly exciting, charismatic candidate. and donald trump is going to keep on pounding that as he is doing now in roanoke. he will be here later in winston-salem for another rally. it will be an incredibly busy week. traveling swing states across the country straight through until saturday. all for the purpose of trying to put down any positive news that

could possibly come out of the convention in philadelphia. >> carl cameron, winston-salem where the rally is tonight. we will have more on that. thank you. have you and yourfacebook about this election? we'll show you how many people are following the action on facebook and what's generating the most action. this is fox news channel. .

does it seem like political posts have taken over your facebook feeds? in the past month, facebook reports that tens of millions have produced more than half a billion interactions about the presidential race. and interaction is a post, a comment, a like, or a share.

so which candidates and issues are getting the most buzz? >> reporter: shepard, we have our special screen here from facebook. this is measuring over the last month or so. we'll start with the candidates. let's look at donald trump here. you can see nearly 37 million people are talking about him. these are interactions. people liking, commenting, sharing, those kinds of things. more females than males chattering about him online. the top group talking about him is 25 to 34. let's look at his rival here for the presidency, hillary clinton. she's got a lower number here, just over 28.5 million comments. but remember, he's just coming off the convention. it's likely we'll see her volume numbers go up. again, more females than males, and this age group 25 to 34 seem

to be the most volume. it's not positive or negative, just conversation we're hearing about these two candidates. >> what about the issues, shannon, what issues are topping these lists? >> this is interesting. when we look at the issues, these are the top five. they'll make sense to you. you think about the racial issues, the shootings we had by white officers, black suspects, and the shootings of the police officers. we've had attacks in nice and germany, these terrorism attacks. those conversations you wouldn't be surprised there could be a lot of conversation about that online. religion comes into a lot of terrorism discussions, as well. government ethics, because this is directly tied we're told to e-mails and fbi regarding hillary clinton. here you see a spike at the bottom of the screen on the days that her husband met with the attorney general. people very tuned in to those issues that is something she'll have to address probably further

this week. >> shannon, thank you. we'll be right back with a look at a milestone for an american who served our country as both a general and a president. and it happened on this day in history.

on this day in 1866, ulyss grant became the first general. he went to west point, fought in the mexican war before taking a break from the military. when the civil war broke out, he was working as a clerk at his dad's store in illinois. of course, he would end up winning the war and the white house, replacing andrew johnson, the same man who gave a civil war hero a big promotion 150 years ago today. stay with fox news channel for continuing coverage. i'll see you on facebook and on

foxnews.com. the final bell is tolling on wall street. been a bit of a down day for the dow. hovering down about 79 right now. stuart varney is in for neil today. and you are looking live at the dnc in philadelphia where the gavel is about to slam down. but it will not be outgoing dnc chair debbie wasserman schultz doing it. at a meeting of delegates from her own state, florida, she was shouted down earlier today. sanders' supporters are furious at the hacked dnc e-mails that show a concerted effort to undermine his campaign. and it is all unraveling at hillary clinton's coronation. welcome, everyone. i'm stuart varney in for neil cavuto. and this is "your world." first to bill
