jenna: it's not over yet. hillary clinton and donald trump battling their own demons in this unprecedented campaign for the white house. with mister trump following poles and practice republicans and mrs. clinton, her email issues and brand-new revelations that suggest a pay to play between her state department and the clinton foundation. hello and welcome to "happening now", i'm jenna lee. >> i'm leland witt are in for jon scott on assignment. there are issues that promised to dog the candidates all the way to election day, doll trump campaigning in jacksonville, a critical swing state where he's trailing hillary clinton and now red state bastions like utah are coming into play as trump now acknowledging he might come up short. >> i'm having a tremendous problem in utah. utah is a different question, is anybody here from utah? i mean, i didn't think so. we're having a problem. the cause you know, look, it
8:01 am
could cost us the supreme court. pennsylvania is a little further off but we're going to win pennsylvania because she wants the miners out of business, if you want steel out of business. jenna: fox news learning that sheryl mills interviewed candidates for a job at the clinton foundation while she served as the chief of staff at the state department. some calling that a major conflict ofinterest area . >> any kind of pattern of access and answering people's questions who were donors really could end her candidacy and if they don't think that could happen, democrats have their head in the sand. jenna: we have coverage on all of this with our political panel standing by with analysis but first we start with rich edson whose live in our washington dc bureau . reporter: the state department says sheryl mills trip to new york to conduct business for the clinton foundation conflicted with
8:02 am
ethics laws. mills was secretary of state hillary clinton's chief of staff. of the trip, the state department spokesperson says the department can confirm that the trip in question was for personal travel and was not paid for with government funds . federal employees are permitted to engage in personal activities within the scope of the federal ethics rules. she continues to say all employees are subject to regulations including rules on conflicts of interest. clinton critics have claimed the clinton foundation is a way for donors to buy influence with the clintons and therefore the state department. the clinton campaign has denied any wrongdoing, this as the department of justice and officials follow-up there is no federal investigation into the clinton foundation. months ago fox news reported federal officials were looking into the foundation and any possible intersection with the state department.
8:03 am
now senator john cornyn, a top senate republican has written a letter to attorney general letter readily questioning why the department of justice was trying to open a case on the clinton foundation. corning writes quote, representatives of the foundation repeatedly sought treatment for his donors and associates from senior officials at the state department. this kind of conduct is unacceptable and reflects the worst concerns harbored by the public about the abuse of government office. during the hearing last month congress asked fbi director james told me about investigation into theclinton foundation . he refused to comment. back to you. jenna: more on this with our political panel. the washington examiner joining us and o'keefe, head of politics for the washington post. the clinton campaign, two very different styles. that's stating the obvious. you both can appreciate and you've seen a lot of different stories about hillary clinton and the foundation and this state department. is there anything different in this story that could affect her momentum in the campaign? >> i think this is the idea that this stuff continues to drip out, it will continue to
8:04 am
hold her back to little bit and continue to sew the doubts of people who are concerned in the democratic party and those that are about what she was doing and the judgment she had and not only using a private email server but having all these connections to the foundation. i will say this, i just to cover the federal workforce across the country and federal agencies.it is correct to say that in your own free time on a volunteer basis, someone could be working for a charity or nonprofit foundation. the problem in this case is sheryl mills wasn't working for the girl scouts or the red cross, she was working for the nonprofit foundation that happened to be tied to her boss who happened to be secretary of state red those appearances feeding to all the other concerns and questions that have been raised about how mrs. clinton used her connections to possibly benefit the foundation or at least create the appearance that all these things were tied together for mutual benefit.
8:05 am
jenna: dave, what do you think about this? is donald trump capitalizing on this? we're spending the week talking about his comments about isis and utah last night, is the trump campaign taking this and using it to their advantage? >> i think you just answered your own question. he's not and they are not. donald trump continues to make himself the story in this campaign and i think that for everything and has mentioned in talking about is correct, it could be a problem for clinton but donald trump is managed so hard to make this race a referendum on him and his temperament in running for office and i think right now what we're seeing from the data is that voters are more concerned about responsibility to be president than they are about clinton's shady dealings and i think one thing to understand here is donald trump has never run for office before. a lot of the things that the general election electorate is finding out about him are new to them and very disturbing. with the clintons, they rose to power and their strength
8:06 am
has never been built on their reputation as the most ethical players on the block. it's been built on other things so a lot of the problem that clinton has is built in. it's a problem but it's not shattering image that voters had of her that was the reason why they were voting for her and now they're going to do some be a reconsideration. she be in a lot more trouble if he was running against a young but she's not. jenna: you are one of the few reporters to get a question to hillary clinton over the last several weeks. our viewers listened to your question on our program and said we got to talk to ed because you really honed in on a question, fundamental not just to the clinton campaign but anyone was running for president so i want to play that question you asked then we will talk about it in the context of her campaign and donald trump, let's go ahead and play that. >> and o'keefe from the washington post, thank you for being here and on the half of all of us we encourage you to do this more often with reporters across the country.[applause] especially those new news
8:07 am
organizations that travel the country with you everywhere you go. a majority of voters consistently say frankly, they don't like you and they don't trust you. and they say pretty much the same thing about donald trump . either you or mister, will be elected president. how would you lead a nation where majority of americans mistrusts you and what extra responsibilitymight you have to show you are up to the . >> a good question for any candidate. eddie, how do you feel she answered that question and you feel this campaign has answered it effectively in >> i don't think either campaign has answered the questions about mistrusts that voters have about them and that's simply because a lot of those opinions are bacon and both of them continue to do or say things that so that mistrust or those concerns about how they
8:08 am
would comport themselves as president. she gave an interesting point that look, when she was in a position whether it was new york senator or secretary of state, she enjoyed high favorability ratings, usually in the 60s which is true. it when she runs for something that suddenly her approval ratings into plummet and she said in part that's because her opponents attacked her relentlessly but why is it then as soon as he gets elected, her numbers turnaround? that's a fair point. as to taking questions, she does interviews with local television, she does newspaper interviews. what she doesn't do is hold pet press conferences like donald trump has done. what she doesn't do is talk to the press for that followed her and why made that point was the washington post, the washington examiner travel to countries, spend money to follow her around not because of it's a feather in our cap but because we feel it's an obligation to cover someone who could be commander-in-chief as we do with the trump campaign and i suggested there diplomatically that she should talk to us a little more often because these are the folks that nowhere the best and follow her the closest and frankly if you were to answer some of these
8:09 am
questions more often maybe we would be able to put to bed sooner rather than later some of these questions and concerns there are about her use of a private email server what her age were doing when she was at the state department. that's the reason i kindly suggested she do this more often. jenna: we will see if she take you up on it. it was a good point for any journalist out there to make rid david, we look forward to your question on hillary clinton, i hope you get one in. >> you and me both. jenna: we will play that as well. there's a difference in access, trump has made some missteps according to many of his critics over the last few weeks that he's very accessible but i'm curious what you think about how he's answering that fundamental question about whether or not someone entrusts donald trump to run the country. that's a question for any candidate.
8:10 am
>> i think for donald trump the bar is higher because he's never held any type of military or political office in a way that would allow people to join him. i think donald trump has made a big mess of what was a very big opportunity for him coming out of winning the republican nomination in may. for the get the convention and even if you look this week at him deciding that the president founded the islamic state and coming out with a tweet saying he was being sarcastic. if voters react differently than they will react differently but what they are showing so far is they don't want this sort of ad hoc way of campaigning and talking about major issues and i think it makes sense because look, when presidents move markets, financial markets and they can move divisions and i think peopleintuitively understand that .and when it comes to candidates talking to reporters, talking to ed and i, i want to do it. it's good for my job security personally but i as a matter of political strategy they only talk to us if they think they need to because they think voters want them to so
8:11 am
hillary clinton will talk to us if and when her campaign determines they need votes and the only way to get those votes is to talk to me and talk to ed and i think donald trump is very accessible, talk to anybody and it doesn't do him any good people don't like whatthey're hearing and that's sort of the crux of talking to reporters and journalists and things like that in terms of your bowl . and what's your goal? to win and you do what it takes to win. right now one candidate is doing a better job of that even though he has plenty of laws herself area. jenna: well said and he gives us an idea of the tension between the press and the candidates, those in political office and that's what our countryis all about, this tension in working it out. we are in the process right now and we appreciate your observations as we work through it . dave, i look forward to having you back as always, thank you so much. leland: a wave of deadly bombings targeting tourists in a popular vacation destination.at least for

leland: we are learning more about how police broke up that terror plot in canada. the fbi warned canadian police about 24-year-old terror suspects erin driver and his plans to carry out a suicide bombing within 72 hours. driver had made a martyrdom case. he was on his way to carry out the attack when canadian police caught up with him. he was killed after detonating the explosive
8:16 am
device in the back of a taxi cab as police shot at him. it could have been a lot worse. jenna: meanwhile to thailand where police are questioning two men in connection with a wave of deadly bombings across the country. at least four people dead and dozens more wounded. attackers targeted resort cities using firebombs and homemade explosives. no claim of responsibility but authorities say they suspect antigovernment forces, not islamic terrorism despite the muslim insurgency thatkilled thousands in southern thailand in the past decade. the state department warning that americans traveling in thailand should be on alert . >> wreckage found on the west african coast could offer new insight into the final minutes of haitian airlines flight flight 370.
8:17 am
the boeing 777 was found off tanzania. investigators say it is highly likely that it came from that doomed flight.the jet vanished without a trace more than two years ago after departing malaysia with 239 people on board. the wall street journal reporting the main flap could offer clues to whether the jet was under the pilot's control in question because it has to actually be deployed by someone in the cockpit area. jenna: in the meantime it was a bumpy ride and that's an understatement for a plane of jetblue passengers. in the plane flying from boston to sacramento when their jet hit turbulence forcing the group to make an emergency landing in south dakota. twodozen people were hurt and correspondent jonathan hunt as the latest from our western bureau . >> a frightening experience for everyone on board jetblue like 429. just imagine being one of those people settling in for that flight from the east coast to west, you suddenly find yourself heading for an emergency landing, instead in south dakota after hitting turbulence that again relatively mildly, the kind of thing that most of us who
8:18 am
fly a lot have felt that one time or another and then a sudden drop that sent flyers flying. >> there was a huge, it felt like a drop and people went flying, things went flying and it was literally seconds, it wasn't along-lasting thing. it was like a movie , that it wasn't really happening but it was like, we just went boom. like that. reporter: in all, 22 passengers injured along with two crew members. concussions the most serious injuries, all of those hurt now being released from the hospital. in a statement released after the plane landed in rapid city south dakota, jetblue confirmed the incident and the injuries and said quote, jetblue team members are assisting injured customers and the replacement aircraft was sent to rapid city for customers continuing on to sacramento. it landed safely at 4:15 a.m.
8:19 am
sacramento time jenna, the lesson for all of us here is that when the pilot says we recommend you keep your seatbelt fastened at all times, you listen. it makes a difference. jenna: as a nervous flyer myself, i do that. do you follow that? leland: seatbelts and vodka. jenna: i don't judge. ifthat works for you , more of it. reporter: it works very well for me. leland: you people are fun to be on a flight with area. leland: moving on, a judge handing on a sentence for the so-called grim sleeper serial killer. how the judge ruled and when that sentence could be carried out as we take a look back at a gruesome case. plus, a huge chunk of the country is bracing for triple digit temperatures this
8:20 am

(girls sing) safelite repair, safelite replace. leland: fox extreme weather
8:23 am
8:24 am
about beyond warm weather, dangerous temperatures. >> it's summertime, we expect to see temperatures climbing into the 90s across many areas but the problem is they are climbing to dangerous levels and we are anticipating triple digit heat index values so now you are talking about concerns about heat illness or heatstroke for people heading outdoors, especially during peak daytime hours. during the afternoon hours, you really want to be safe out there. anywhere from the southern plains to parts of the eastern seaboard, you are looking at a lot of the temperatures and it's already hot out there. in dallas it's 93 degrees, in boston 91 degrees and because it's so humid out there the heat index values are high, already close to 100 in dallas, 98 degrees in boston and 94 in new york so we have
8:25 am
a number of advisories in place across the plains, also extending across places like ohio and west virginia and in the northeast along the i-95 corridor we have a number of heat warnings as well with those heat index temperatures forecast at times very high so here's the forecast. later on this afternoon in places like new york it's going to feel like 105, 104 degrees, same in philadelphia and across the plains not much different, 111 degrees. what's it going to feel like this afternoon as you have outdoors, 107 in houston and forecasts continue not only today but even as we head into saturday and also sunday so here's a look at the forecast. temperatures for saturday, 98 degrees. as you see you will be in the low 90s and dallas and continuing into sunday. another big weather story that has been ongoing has been this area of low pressure that lingering across parts of the gulf of mexico, feeding in that moisture across portions of loretta. it bought heavy rain out there and flooding, some flooded roadways out there and the big concern is places like louisiana where we have been getting hit by a lot of
8:26 am
heavy rain. you see on the radar it is still ongoing. the heaviest stuff west of the city of new orleans and the forecast out here, take a look through the weekend and early next week, potentially more than six inches of rain, possibly even a foot in some areas so watches have already been issued, warnings now expected across parts of mississippi and louisiana. leland: we've seen flooding in houston before. it's amazing when you talk about the heat index, that heat inthe shade you are in the sun it will feel hotter than 111 in dallas . >> that's what it feels like when you are in a shaded area. if you're in your car it will be way hotter than that so that gets to keep in mind. leland: in none of these places is it a dry heat. thanks so much. have a cool weekend. >> indoors. leland: thanks, jenna? jenna: the dow, nasdaq and s&p 500 closing at all-time highs for the first time since new year's eve 1999. live from the new york stock exchange, nicole.
8:27 am
reporter: let's take a look how the market averages are doing now, today. it closed yesterday as his 1999. many of us remember rock legend prints saying it can party like it's 1999. using the dow double, the s&p 500 nearly double and the nasdaq gain as well. we had fluctuations, we made it through the financial crisis but since then we've managed to move up to new highs. yesterday closing at these record levels and again if we close higher again today we will once again see record closes. we will see all three on the same day? that is the unusual factor. the dow factor overall. 24 names on the dow are winners this year led by adam hill, united health and walmart, all of more than 20 percent . goldman sachs and nike. the standouts that are notable in key names such as amazon, google, facebook, all those hit new all-time highs
8:28 am
this week and yahoo and group on have been hitting your highs so those are some of the winners. big picture, investments can rise or fall depending on her economic report. yesterday we got a better-than-expected job report and that help things along. retail sales today were relatively flat. we do move with economic reports. big picture, we will watch everything going forward. traders day, theydon't know which way it will go but cost averaging is a good way to handle this market. you put money and in a systematic way , g keeping tabs on geopolitical concerned on the election coming up so those are some of the factors going from now until the end of the year that could move this market around but i have to say as i talk back to you, americans still don't have the wages, still don't have a job, ill don't have homeownership, they are on food stamps but the markets have continued to climb because of the numbers that are even. jenna: thank you very much.
8:29 am
leland: new information on the case we have followed closely on "happening now". a former sanitation worker from los angeles known as the grim sleeper serial killer has been sentenced to death for murdering nine women and 15-year-old girl. the murders took place between 1985 and 2007. it wasn't until 2007 police began to suspect lonnie david franklin junior for the murders. in 2009, franklin's son was arrested on a felony on charge and his dna was taken. in 2010 a group search of the state offender records turned up a match, eventually turning attention to the offender's father, the man you see here. on july 7, 2010, franklin was
8:30 am
arrested. unknown to use to kill one of the women was found in his home on that day. on may 6 a jury convicted him of 10 counts of murder, one count of attempted murder read the victim who survived testified against him up at trial, something we will never forget. two days ago the judge sentenced the now 63-year-old franklin to death and family members of the victims watched and clapped area that you might remember the california death penaltyhad been under fire in recent years, hundreds of people on california's death row but none of them have been executed since 2006 . jenna: brand-new fox news latino polls showing trump in big trouble when it comes to hispanic voters. we break it down next was from claims the mainstream media is out to get him. does he have a point? we will have a fair and balanced debate.
8:34 am
jenna: were going to talk about numbers now, brand-new latino polls out now show donald trump is in big trouble among hispanic voters. hillary clinton holding a commanding lead and we will take a closer look at these numbers, brian innes joins us from new york with more on what they mean for donald trump donald trump's support among latino registered voters has dropped over the past three months. there has been a seven point swing in favor of hillary clinton. mrs. clinton now has a 46 point lead among hispanic voters, or the six percent to trumps 20 percent according to a new fox news latino.com poll, up from a 39 point lead she had in may area in fact, in a three-person race,
8:35 am
libertarian candidate gary johnson is virtually tied with trump among latinos, 17 percent to 16 percent rated four out of five hispanic voters now have an unfavorable view of mister trump. just 15 percent of latinos view him favorably, that downbeat points since may. meantime, despite that fbi investigation hillary clinton's unfavorable numbers remain unchanged at 41 percent. clinton made the biggest gain with hispanic voters over the last three months on two key issues, the economy and terrorism read both issues trump considers his strengths but his support could have big implications for mister trump with arizona and georgia now considered tossup's, the stakes for trump are even higher to win in the battleground state of florida, four years republicans counted on conservative cuban-americans
8:36 am
to swing the sun sign state but since 2002 the puerto rican population there has doubled to more than 1 million and according to the pew research center, this bodes well for hillary clinton because according to our poll, puerto ricans favor her more than any other hispanic demographic. >> the hispanic vote is a swing vote and its wings in different ways. in florida they have gone republican and they have gone democrat and that's also what they've done nationally. they're notan automatic vote . leland: george w. bush on about 40 percent of the hispanic vote for four years it's thought that is the key number to win the white house. right now is trump is at 20 percent. this is an unconventional election so who knows what it all means. jenna: we just put the facts out there and we will see which way the chips fall. thank you. >> it's the media folks, they are so dishonest. this is a movement like they maybe have never seen in this country. according to even the political pundits that truly
8:37 am
hate us. so the media doesn't want to talk about it. we've done something, we, all of us together. i'm a messenger, i'm only a messenger. lori clinton made repeated false statements to the media and when i watch the interview that she did on fox, i said, this is going to be a massive scandal. and nothing happened. three days later it was like nothing. if iever did that interview they would have me terminated , my run. >> in my opinion the president is an extension of hillary clinton and the democrats and that's what's going on. people see it. >> donald trump blasting the media for negative coverage of his campaign. there has been a series of missteps that captured the media's attention and turn the spotlight away from the
8:38 am
very real controversies surrounding hillary clinton. a pulitzer prize winning journalist and author, count thomas, syndicated columnist, both fox news contributors here on this friday, nice to see you both of you. leland: judy, think about this. i think reasonable people can agree that donald trump has had a bad two weeks whether it's media coverage or out on the campaign trail.new head-to-head battleground polls from thewall street journal , nbc coming out, hillary clinton +5 in florida. clinton +14 in colorado. +9 in north carolina. clinton lost 13 in virginia. is this causation, meaning the media is beating trump down in the polls or is this correlation that these things are happening at the same time? i think the polls reflect growing disenchantment among voters or potential voters who have not been paying attention until now to the two candidates who have emerged as their party's nominee. look, we pay attention to
8:39 am
everything. every mistake, every false move, every outrageous statement but ordinary voters, they do not end nor should they area there's something wrong with that but once they do and they listen to donald trump and they watch him and they see the kind of two weeks that he's had in which he has not only gone out of his way to be ambiguous about whether or not he thought it was a good idea for second amendment gun owners to perhaps take matters into their own hands and assassinate a sitting president. >> he didn't use the word assassinate. >> of course he didn't. >> he said people should do something about it, i don't think anybody with the second amendment is going to head out with their pit pitchforks. >> you can hear in donald trump what you want to hear and what the mainstream media
8:40 am
have heard and this is where count makes it fair but may have heard in the kind of call to arms, i think if you go back and look at everything that donald trump has said since the beginning of this campaign, there's so much ammunition, so many of his wounds are still conflicted and the same can be said by the way of hillary clinton. leland: and that's where i wanted to go with calvin things can be said of hillary clinton but we don't hear about it on repeat in the way that we do about donald trump. you look at media coverage of the lastweek of hillary clinton, you haven't heard huge amount about the judicial watch emails that came out. omar my teens father was seated behind hillary clinton as a rally and it was a two-hour story. cal, is there a double standard between trump and clinton weston mark . >> of course leland. this question is almost
8:41 am
rhetorical but to quote hillary clinton in another context, what difference does it make? if republicans don't understand that in every election cycle the media are going to take the side of the democrats, they don't understand anything. their problem is and trump's problem is they haven't figure out a way around it. trump continues to focus on his personality rather than policy. if you jump into alliance kate you cannot can't blame the lion for eating you and trump throws all this red meat out at the journalists and he's been inciting them to attack him. leland: judy, does cal have a point? that if trump stopped reading the teleprompter during that economy speech then suddenly the focus of the media would become more balanced? your former publication, the new york times admitted their media critic writing the journalists have become quote, closer than they've ever been to being oppositional towards donald trump, almost justifyingtheir really unfair coverage . >> i don't think he was justifying jim. jim rutenberg wrote a provocative and interesting story about the problem of reporters as opposed to us commentators are having trying to be objective about a man who has made many false
8:42 am
statements, what political fact calls pants on fire lies. how you handle a candidate like that and yes, it is absolutely true that most of the mainstream media consider themselves liberal and don't like donald trump but when you ... leland: but how do you handle hillary clinton? this is a woman who live repeatedly about whether emails were on her server and had a difficult relationship and hasn't had real press conference withthe journalists covering her on a day-to-day basis in 252 days ? >> absolutely true and when this new batch of 44 emails was released, showing her top aides involved in helping friends from her husbands and her foundation, she promised she was going to separate herself from that. that should be a news story. there's nothing linking her specifically to any of these
8:43 am
emails or any decision she made at the state department but there's no doubt that these would be receiving more press if donald trump didn't stop getting in the way of the stories that would hurt her but he does read the focus always have to be on him. leland: you think about that story involving emails, there have been a couple of journalists that have gone toe to toe with state department spokesman, take a listen. >> you don't believe there was impropriety in the relationship between the clinton foundation and the state department? >> we talked to a wide range ofpeople at my level and various levels. >> the state department looked into this and determined there was no impropriety . >> the department is regularly in touch with people across thewhole spectrum . >> i'm sorry, am i not speaking english? the question is whether or not you determined there was nothing improper here. leland: judy was right and is
8:44 am
judy right that if trump stops saying these things that give red meat in your words to the lions, would all of a sudden the mainstream media, the new york times, washington post put their investigative reporters on these issues at the state department rather than us having to dig up these clipsou hypothetical. probably not but they would be more likely to i think if trump focused on the policy. let's take a look at her speech yesterday in michigan. she basically recycled democrat talking points, the ones president obama used in 2008 when he was running against her. shovel ready jobs, more infrastructure, investments which is another big word for government spending. trump could take all that apart and point out this has worked in the last eight years. even joe biden said i guess all those jobs work shovel ready when theydidn't show up. that's what he needs to focus on instead of personality . leland: he's got two rallies coming up later today in connecticut area we will see what he has to say that we can weigh in on coming up.
