hammer and get the guy out. he was eventually wheeled out and into an ambulance giving two thumbs up. >> wonder if the girl is giving two thumbs up. >> hope he won her over. >> "fox & friends" starts right now. >> have a great day. >> bye-bye. good morning to you and your family, it is wednesday, august 24th. we start with a fox news alert. italy totally rocked overnight by a massive earthquake at least 37 people ever dead. many more are buried under rubble. the desperate search for the survivors in the rubble, we are live on the ground. meanwhile, back here at home, donald trump takes the stage in a town hall in texas and hammers hillary clinton over a new bombshell that finds most of her state department meetings, phone calls with clinton foundation people, they

actually gave a lot of money. >> it's disgusting. it shouldn't be allowed. what's going on with hillary clinton, there is no justice in this country. >> plus, donald trump tells our own ainsley how he plans to keep up the campaign momentum because right now it's going great. and a patriotic call that will holds you in your track is when you see what this army reservist just did when he heard the national anthem. it will give you chills. that pole vaulter, you'll see the video, because he will join us live. keep in mind, because you're awake. mornings are better with friends. let's get straight to that breaking news. we woke up this morning finding out what happened in italy. a search now through the rubble after a powerful earthquake rocking central italy in the middle of the night. >> in the last couple of minutes we've learned that the

devastating 6.2 magnitude quake is now responsible for at least 37 deaths including a number of children. >> you're looking live in amatrice, italy. amy kellogg is on her way. she is live on the phone tracking all the breaking news. amy, what can you tell us now? and what are we up against as it comes to the death toll? >> reporter: actually, it was just a handful overnight, but what i will say is we're approaching amatrice, we're not there yet. we have a couple of miles. the cruel discriminative nature, it is beaucolic, clear, there is no evidence of anything. the only evidence we have are close by, a number of vehicles that are heading in the other direction. >> pretty bad connection, amy. i can't make out what you're saying.

we'll wait until you get a little bit closer. >> right. she was talking about how she's in transit right now. some of the people, the mayor of amatrice said the town isn't here anymore. it simply has disappeared. >> imagine if you're a parent and you know your child's underneath all of that, your loved one is, you don't have the equipment to get them out. you do what these folks are doing, you pick off one piece at a time and try to find the ones that you love. >> ainsley, there are certain areas in the world that are used to earthquakes. they have a financial wherewithal like los angeles, the empire, they'll put the buildings on the rollers and do the best to survive a 6.2 to 6.7. this area is not used to earthquakes. >> no. this part of italy was built many years ago in instances. there have been so far 39

aftershocks. some of the after shocks 5.1. one fellow who lives in the area said the whole ceiling fell but did not hit me. i just managed to put a pillow on my head and i wasn't hit. luckily just slightly injured. >> it hit three separate towns in all. this is obviously where most of the devastation is. they're still waiting to get some help. we'll see what the italian infrastructure is like. this is a pure italian response. >> only 100 miles away from rome. >> in central italy. we will keep you posted on that right now. the death toll in central italy. in amatrice. heather is here to tell us what else is happening because, of course, this on fox news.com and everywhere else is the number one story. >> certainly. a couple of other things going on. another fox news report. there is a new show of force happening for north korea overnight. that country launching a ballistic missile from a

submarine. it flew a few hundred miles before it crashed into the ocean. they're starting a new joint military drill. norad said the missiles did not pose a threat to the united states. "new york times" a possible target of a russian cyber attack. the hackers breaking into an unknown number of journalist's e-mail accounts. other u.s. news organizations targeted. it's likely the same attackers who were behind the dnc cyber attack that brought down debbie wasserman schultz. it's unclear what type of information was stolen or why. the clinton campaign has claimed the dnc hack is proof that the russians are trying to get donald trump elected to the white house. well, president obama finally visiting flood ravaged louisiana days after donald trump was already there. the president talked to residents and toured devastated neighborhoods while he deflected attacks from trump who claim the president's visit was all for show.

>> this is not a one off. this is not a photo op issue. this is how do you make sure that a month from now, three months from now, six months from now people still are getting the help they need. >> donald trump's reaction on twitter saying this, quote, president obama should have gone to louisiana days ago instead of golfing. too little too late. the flooding killed 13 people and damaged more than 60,000 homes. well, he is one of the most important politicians this election season. despite being on tv all across the country and worldwide, the barber who was caught cutting governor mike pence's hair had to ask who he was. >> your name? >> mike pence. >> mike pence? >> yes, sir. i'm the governor of the state of indiana. i'm running for vice president of the united states. >> no kidding, man. vice president? >> yes, sir. >> look at you, man. well, this happening during pence's visit to norris town,

pennsylvania. and i bet that does happen to a lot of politician. we go to times square and hold up all the signs. a lot of people don't know who they are. >> even though he's running for vice president of the united states. >> some people don't watch it. >> still making excuses for him. they don't know the running mate of a major candidate. >> there are a whole lot of people out there like that. we've seen that time and time again. >> clueless. >> thanks, brain. >> he said, a lot of people don't know who i am. >> he's very well groomed. no one can argue mike pence is groomed. from grooming to grilling. the associated press reviewed some of her records when she was secretary of state and it turns out about half, 55% of the people she met or had telephone calls with wound up being donors to the clinton foundation. of the 154 people, 85 of them

wound up donating to the clinton foundation to the tune of $156 million. ladies and gentlemen, that looks bad and that's why on the cover of the new york post today they've got the headlines, donors special access to hillary, dough nation. >> i'm glad they're zooming in on that. if you take a look at the picture, it's funny. >> the associated press puts these out. brian fallon has pushed back saying you guys aren't taking into account the number of foreign visitors she had. bottom line is they put these numbers in. these are overall visitors. the overall majority gave an extraordinary amount of donations. if you are out there as a voter, this is what hillary clinton declares says it was perfectly okay. donald trump not okay with it. >> it's disgusting.

it shouldn't be allowed. what's going on with hillary clinton, there is no justice in this country. there is no justice in this country. zero. perhaps for her to have the privilege or right to run for president with what she's done with deleting 33,000 e-mails, you can imagine what was on those e-mails, it is so sad and the whole world is looking and the whole world is laughing at the united states. >> look at the dough nation. >> that was the town hall with shawn hannity last night in austin, texas. before he went out on stage i got to talk to him. >> you went to texas? >> i went to texas, i did. i met the great people down there. it was so awesome. this was his best week so far. we talked about his immigration plan and we talked about hillary clinton's data pledge. listen. >> so a lot of people are saying you've had your best week yet.

how do you keep it going? >> i guess just keep doing the same thing. we're making a big speech in an hour that's going to be amazing. we have 15,000 people waiting and it's been really an amazing period of time. >> you're calling for a special prosecutor to investigate the connection between the clinton foundation and the state department. why is that important? >> look at what's happening. this is out of control. from the standpoint of justice and what's supposed to be happening, law and order. you look at all of these acts where she's 100% guilty, everybody knows she's guilty. she's lied all over the place. it's almost like she can do whatever she wants to do. i think it's so unfair. so bad for our country, ainsley. >> now we're hearing someone with the clinton foundation, the coo, was making phone calls and left about 150 voicemails for the chief of staff with the state department when hillary clinton was secretary of state. >> i just heard that also. it's beyond belief. all of these people, first of

all, they're not supposed to be setting up meetings. when they set up the meetings, take a look at what's happening. take a look at what's happening whether it's bahrain or whatever. those meetings didn't take place to say hello. those meetings, they want to talk turkey. they aren't there to say, gee, it's a the weather is beautiful. you follow up those meetings whether it's missiles, planes or maybe something personal. a lot of things happen from those meetings. >> i went on thursday to interview governor pence and see his family. idea layed my interview because you were going to baton rouge. was the president going four days later because you sent a precedent? >> he went very late. look, he could have left his golf game. he could have played early and gone in the afternoon. i expected that would happen. and for him to say i want to finish my whole vacation, who

gets it? look, who gets it? it's ridiculous. now the waters are gone, the floods are gone. there's devastation there. the people are amazing people, but those people deserve to have their president go a lot sooner than he went. and it certainly lost its effect. it was really sad. it was to play golf. i mean, he wanted to play golf. >> immigration. you're here to talk about immigration. we've met a lot of families who lost their kids. what's your new message? >> we have to have strong voters. the wall may be -- we're building the wall. the wall is going to be built easy. we're building the wall. we're going to have very, very tough standards. to come into the country, tough. when you come in, by the way, from syria, these places, this is really going to be tough. hillary clinton's allowing thousands and thousands of people in and obama but she wants to have 550% more than obama is allowing.

people come in from syria. we have no idea who they are, no paperwork, nothing. we don't know what we're getting. could be isis. we don't know what we're getting. we're going to have a strong border on the southern border. we're going to let people come in. ainsley, i think if you watch the town hall, which you did, that's going to be the thing. when he comes out with his immigration plan, it's going to be some type you think pathway for the people who are here already. >> right. going to be humane and fair. >> but he's going to build that wall. >> absolutely. he said a lot of people are saying he's not. it's easy to build he said last night. >> great job going down to texas. >> thank you. meanwhile, coming up on this wednesday, president obama finally did go to louisiana days after the devastating flooding. >> and a week after his administration sent a memo telling people how not to be racist in hiring cleanup people. our next guest is running for senate in louisiana and he is demanding an apology from the

it's just ridiculous that the department of so called justice would under this president's command would think that the people of louisiana in the middle of a disaster when the waters are rising and the cajun navy volunteers are out by the thousands to issue a letter like this is an insult to the american people and the people of louisiana. >> surely. what's their fear? >> i'm sorry? >> what is their worry? >> i have no idea. down here in louisiana we have all worked together in all kinds of tough situations. we've based a lot of tough situations on the last few months. it just appalls me and those folks that i know when i'm out helping to rebuild louisiana and helping folks regardless of their color or where they come from to get their houses ready to get reconstructed to have our own federal government out there saying -- >> sure. >> -- that we're not helping each other and we're going to

pulling out survivors like this man from under piles of debris. volunteers now going home to call out for survivors, calling out their names as concerned neighbors and family members wait nearby. this little dog alive after a dramatic rescue that happened moments ago. witnesses describing it as an apocalyptic scene as tears run down their faces looking at the horror of what's left of their home. the terrifying shock felt more than 100 miles away in rome. we'll bring you more of that story as we get it out of italy. 37 people dead. well, back here at home, you know epi-pens, lots of kids carry them in their backpacks. the prices of those aren't the only thing skyrocketing. so are the executive's salary that makes these. from 2007, the last year myalin ceo heather brush got nearly a 700% raise.

now after suing they finally got the information. >> the ap is not the only news organization in the world. by the way, good for them. it's a shocking story. the corruption of the clinton foundation and the nexus between that and the state department. it's a bigger story on two fronts. first, it discredits not simply hillary clinton but the u.s. government. america is great but it's not corrupt. it's an island of honest government in a sea of -- a global sea of corruption. this discredits that. it is clear from this and a bunch of other stories that have broken in the last couple of months that hillary clinton was selling access to the u.s. government -- >> that's right. >> -- while secretary of state. the second point it makes is the press is proven incapable of covering hillary. she's up in the polls. in less than 80 days how is a press core going to cover a hillary clinton administration? >> it's unbelievable. a couple of things. we have not -- it's amazing,

when donald trump does not make the news in negative ways, people are able to look at hillary clinton for a long time he's been swamping her bad news and doing her a huge favor but brain fallon pushed back on the stats. he said it's outrageous to misrepresent hillary clinton's basis for meetings with these individuals. he called it a disstarted portrayal of how fast she connected with them. >> the story -- they only released half of the records. if they have a problem with that, release all of the records. >> let's get specific then. in the case, for example, of an indonesian businessman who has referred to hillary clinton's office by doug band who's her husband's body guard. when huma abedeen takes the e-mail and sets that up. there are billions of people in the world. 55% of the people who she meets with have donated?

what's the explanation? >> if you ask james cargill, he says if the foundation is shut down, then people will die. if you look at the stats in 2013 -- >> people will die. >> -- they raised $141 million. they only spent $9 million on the trekt grant. >> that's the number right there. that's the number, ainsley, 140 million according to their tax returns, 9 million went to direct grants so the point isn't simply that it's corrupt, it's that it's ineffective. it's a bad charity. if you had a choice between giving to the clinton foundation or the tens of thousands of money around the world. >> you want to look for 85%? you want the money that the charity makes to go back to the people. >> so you should ask james, whom i love, name specific ways that the clinton foundation has actually helped people. not just convincing drug

companies to lower the cost on an aids drug. >> tucker, this all reminds us, you're old enough to remember when bill clinton and his administration sold off the lincoln bedroom to donors and stuff like that? >> very well. >> should this surprise snus this was all about access. in those days it was millions of dollars. now we're talking hundreds of millions of dollars. >> yes. see, the tragedy, it's not just about the clintons, it's about the rest of us. it's our government. the legacy we can be the most proud of is a clean government. they're polluting it. >> meanwhile, somebody had a smartphone out and took a picture during a training session at the army. what they did was they had different threats to our national security regarding cyber. who are the threats? you have nadal hassan, you have

now chelsea manning, snowden, the navy yard shooter, you have david petraeus and then they put up a picture of hillary clinton as an insider threat to our national security. >> yes. >> apparently this is an actual still image from that particular presentation. >> i think the point they're making, if elected she'll have to spring board turning to the left and throw open the borders. that's a direct threat. i think that may have been the point. >> no, it's obviously a mistake. if we did this, if fox news had put up that graphic, can you imagine? there would be a state department investigation, the fcc, every ounce of agencies looking at this. >> tucker, the thing is she did, they wanted to make sure. somebody was trying to get a point across. reince priebus came out last night. we know he's rooting for donald

trump. he said by labor day this thing will be tied. do you agree? >> you know, it's entirely possible. you probably have two people who are uniquely poised. everybody in our world in the media, in government, in politics lives in neighborhoods where not a single person is voting for donald trump. does that distort the outcome of our victims? yes. to what extent? i don't know. i think the actual number is probably different from the numbers we're zbleeg politics can change in the drop of a hat. see a few more good weeks. >> right. >> if the press will continue to press -- >> it's not the press, it's the ap, "new york times." >> exactly. the cover of the washington post today, progress. >> yeah. don't worry, her e-mails are so boring she's embarrassed. >> and all her conversations are

about grandkids. >> she can do it. >> tucker, thank you very much for doing it. >> he's in a lot better mood. >> have you seen him in a bad mood? >> no, actually, i have never seen him in a bad mood. let's tell you what's coming up now, more than 200 years ago the british burned down the white house. our leaders in washington today could learn something major from that, especially what happens after that especially in the war on charity. >> before you grab your morning coffee, starbucks just won a huge lawsuit and you're not going to like the outcome. ♪ ♪ ♪

the american spirit that you want to convey to the? >> madison's greed and america got through this loss and they came back and said, we're going to rebuild. we're going to be bigger and better and pull it together. >> after 9/11 everybody came together, republicans and democrats. we're not together now, especially in this war on terror that we could have had an attack in virginia over the weekend. it happened. san bernardino, orlando, it happened. 9/11, it happened. fort hood, it happened, but yet we're not coming together besides 9/11. >> well, i think that's because we haven't really focused on -- the president's not talking about the ideology behind what's driving our energy. he's sort of turning the other looking away from it. that's what happened 200 years ago so whee a catastrophe.

the clinton campaign claims the dnc hack is proof that the russians are trying to help get donald trump elected to the white house. those your headlines. a lot going on this morning. we'll keep you posted on it all. >> thanks, heather. in front of our world headquarters, we have james carville, the former hillary clinton strategist, author of new book called "we're still right, they're still wrong." good morning, james. >> good morning. good morning. >> great to have you. >> what a nice day here. >> it's beautiful. >> hey, i got news for you, i'm now a republican. >> i'm 72 years old, i'm not changing, wives, political party or sexual orientation. >> we're going to finish this thing out. >> that's why advertisers focus on the younger generation because you can change their minds. get to a certain age, no changes. >> james, let's talk about politics. on the cover of the new york post today, your friend, hillary clinton who wants to be president of the united states,

about the "ap" story, half the people who talked to her or saw her wound up donating millions of dollars to the clinton foundation. this does not look good. >> well, let's talk. the biggest person in the thing was a man named mohammed yanis. >> who is he? >> he is the person who started micro lending which probably helped more people in poverty than anyone and he won a nobel peace prize in 2008. >> was he a donor? >> probably. he was a donor, not only that he came to arkansas in 1983. he is almost a lifelong friend of the clintons that started a micro lending project there. he was being repressed by the government of bangladesh. the state department can't help a nobel prize winning economist who is being subject to oppression by the host government who can they help?

by the way, the clinton foundation uses him a lot. they do a lot of micro lending. this is where a former -- equivalent of $70 to build -- or ditch. >> this guy has obviously done tremendous things. >> another one i know personally -- >> i know the names you gave me. danny abraham. danny a abraham i think is about 92 years old. i know danny well. he is the foremost advocate for peace in the middle east. he spent hundreds of millions of dollars on trying to promote peace in the middle east. he's a lifelong friend of the clintons. i'm going down the list. >> you can't go through 85 people. how about the perception? >> i'm going by the names that i know. >> we don't have enough time to go through 85 people. >> steve schwartzman, one of the largest foundations. i happen to have met steve one time. i'm pretty sure he's a republican. >> james, everyone is for helping charity.

it's just -- it's odd that the lines here are muddy. you have the clinton foundation and state department -- >> it looks like they were selling access. >> the clintons have taken -- bill, hillary and chelsea clinton have never taken a penny from the foundation, in fact, have given it millions of dollars. the board of foundation serves without pay. it's a five-star rated foundation by charity watch. it's one of the best run foundations in the world. now, the idea that people are involved in the foundation are also involved with public, private partnerships around the world, that's one of the things they do. so of course -- this does not count as the list pointed out, doesn't count heads of state or people in government. >> james, you've taken a day of getting these stories of cheryl mills, the coo of the foundation, leaving 140 messages back and forth. doesn't it bother you that co-mingling, she signed an ethics agreement not to do that -- >> again, she doesn't take a penny. they don't get a cent out of it.

>> listen, donald trump was asked about this last night at sean hannity's town hall. listen to what he says about it, then we'll get your reaction. >> it's disgusting. it shouldn't be allowed. what's going on with hillary clinton, there is no justice in this country. there is no justice in this country. zero. perhaps for her to have this -- >> james -- >> go ahead, i'm listening. >> what she's done with deleting 33,000 e-mails and you can imagine what was on those e-mails. it is so sad and the whole world is looking and the whole world is laughing at the united states. >> there's supposed to be a fire wall between the state department and the clinton foundation and it just looks like there wasn't. >> well, in many instances they -- the crown prince of bahrain, which is probably the most important strategic ally in the middle east.

he said he got the meeting through normal channels. you see him telling that. >> all right. >> it doesn't -- i think the clinton foundation is one of the greatest. can one third of the people of pediatric aids get their medication through the clinton foundation, they reduced the cost of malaria drugs which is probably by about 85%. they do micro lending, which is one of the great things. the three things by bill clinton, who i love, three greatest achievements in my mind was the stoppage of assad. he did the human gentlemen gnome project which is going to save our children and grandchildren, extend life and the clinton foundation. i think it is a terrific organization. >> james, let me ask you about baton rouge. >> sure. >> it didn't look good when the president was playing golf, in martha's vineyard, hillary clinton campaigning, 33,000 a plate. then donald trump and mike pence

stopped everything and went down to help the victims. >> we had a rule in the clinton administration, the president didn't come until i told him all clear because in our government told the president i got people doing things i really would prefer that you not come now because i don't want to take the people off. donald trump came -- thank you, donald trump. he gave $100,000 to a church which was very effective. thank you, donald trump. the federal response by everybody's estimation has been superb. thank you craig and fema. >> james, remember when george w. bush was president, he was lambasted by the press, including barack obama for not showing up. >> he came pretty soon after. the problem was the fema response during katrina was less. jeb bush was fema director in florida.

he is a professional disaster man. nothing about politics. the view in louisiana -- by the way, thank you for bringing it up. it is a first class tragedy. we have people who lost their homes but our govern who's brother was a sheriff, daddy was a sheriff, west point honor graduate, army ranger asked the president not to come. >> what do you mean you're still right? >> look, i think if you look at from statistics, economic statistics, look at the climate argument, look at so many things, i think the democrats have proven to be substantially more right about more things over long periods of time. that's the argument i make in the book. by the way, anybody is interested, it's right here. >> he's here to sell the book. >> thank you all for having me. thank you for asking about baton rouge. >> here is the question for you who is going to win? >> donald trump says he's a winner, he is going to win all three debates. so i don't know. we'll see if he's a winner or not. >> thank you so much.

given latitude to develop their own training products and this particular presentation had not been reviewed and does not reflect the position of the military. >> well, you know, it kind of does reflect the position, though, of the fbi director because when he said he wasn't going to be suggesting charges, it was because she had handled national security secrets in a careless fashion. >> right. he blatantly said that. james comey blatantly said that. you're absolutely right. >> he said it was about intent. she did all these things wrong. if you're trying to teach someone how to secure documents -- >> here is whatnot to do. >> good point. all right. >> thank you, anna. >> what's going to happen? they've taken it out because it was that one unit? >> yep. they say it was a rogue military member that used it in a presentation and once they realized it was in there, they yanked it. they weren't happy with it, but it made it out there. >> lot of people agree with that slide. they think that she could possibly have leaked information or the enemy could have gotten information based on her

it's beyond belief. and all these people -- first of all, they're not supposed to be setting up meetings. take a look at what's happening? take a look at bahrain or wherever it may be, they get a lot of things for this. those meetings didn't take place to say hello. those meetings were -- they want to talk turkey. these people aren't there to say it's a wonderful day, the weather is beautiful. and you just follow up those meetings whether it's missiles or planes or maybe something personal. lot of things happen from those meetings. >> i went to indiana on thursday to interview governor pence and be with his family. i had all these messages saying you were going to baton rouge. we delayed our interview. i want to hear about that experience and what you thought about the president going four days later. was he doing that because you set a precedent? >> well, he went very late. he could have left his golf game. he could have played early. could have played early and gone in the afternoon. i expected that would happen.

and for him to say i want to finish my whole vacation, who gets it? look, who gets it. it's ridiculous and now the waters are gone, the floods are gone, there's devastation. the people are amazing people. but those people deserve to have their president go a lot sooner than he went. and it certainly lost its impact. it was really sad. and it was to play golf. he wanted to play golf. >> immigration. you're here to talk about immigration. we met a lot of families who lost their kids by illegal immigrants. what's your message? when will you roll out your new plan? >> we'll have strong borders. maybe trump won't build the wall. we're building the wall. the wall will be built. it's easy. we're building the wall. you have tough standards. you come into the country, it's tough. when you come in from syria, this is really going to be tough. you know, hillary clinton is allowing thousands and thousands of people -- and obama. but she wants to have 550% more

than obama is allowing. people are coming from syria. we have no idea who they are. they have no paperwork. they have no nothing. we don't know what we're getting. could be isis. we don't know what we're getting. so we're going to have a very strong border on the southern border. we are going to let people in, but they're going to come in legally. as i've been saying for a long time. >> good interview. he is absolutely right. as we told you on this program, when isis is rolled into different towns in syria, they knock over city hall and take all the passports, the blank ones. and they take passport printing machine. the people who come from syria, there's no expectation that those passports are true. >> you're absolutely right. he also talked about the momentum going forward because people were saying he had the best week of his campaign so far and how happy he is with his new campaign team. >> yeah. and that allowed hillary clinton to be the story for the last ten days, and she's provided a lot to talk about. and has been leading our show. it's going to be fascinating when he finally comes out with his immigration plan.

in order to get the hispanic vote, many people say the hispanics that are here for 30 years came here illegally but have contributed to society want a pathway. and a lot of -- the hispanic vote really hinges on that. other people say that shows you're flip-flopping and you're more like jeb bush. it will be tough. >> it will be fair and humane. >> they're going to build a wall. he was emphatic on that. >> let's hand it over to heather for head lines inside. good morning to all of you. we have breaking news coming into our news room right now. that death toll has now risen to 38. it was a 6.2 magnitude quake. it rocked central italy over night. we are now getting some brand new video, showing the frantic search for survivors, including this man trapped under a mountain of bricks, pleading for help. the man you see above the bricks telling the trapped victim that help is on its way.

also, a brand new chilling picture shows a mother holding her terrified young son and this man is lucky to be alive after he was rescued from under a pile of debris. witnesses calling this an apocalyptic scene. tears running down faces as they realize what's left of their home and this just in, another earthquake. this one rocking burma near the border of india. we're working to get more details and bring you the very latest. back here at home, ha rambe, now the cincinnati zoo is deleting its facebook and twitter account after a series of jokes and memes about the dead gorilla, harambe was shot back in june when a boy got into

his enclosure. this one, four girls spelling out harambe with their shirt for the school picture. the jokes keep it from moving on with that picture. >> ryan reynolds, the actor not shy on the big screen. >> oh my god. why are you -- >> don't look at me. don't look at me. >> i don't understand. >> just go. >> bye. >> please. >> nice tattoo, by the way. >> it's a funny movie. when it comes to twitter, the actor taking a different approach. he is responding to a fan's inappropriate tweet, that's what he calls them, politely turning down fans with innocent, comical responses. apparently fans have been pestering him. he wrote things like this -- sorry. just holding my infant niece in my arms for her baptism right now. just saying good-bye to my nana,

any moment now. #withtheangelssoon. >> good way to combat inappropriate tweets. >> thanks, heather. hurricane down in those parts in, what, ten years? >> you know, i do want to start out quickly with some severe weather, because we have been talking about flooding in louisiana. fortunately we do have a bit of a break now with that rainfall, but yesterday we had a tornado across portions of the midwest and that storm system bringing in yet again another severe weather throughout across parts of iowa, missouri and also extending into illinois. here is a look at the storm system you're talking about. it is forecast to intensify, potentially tropical depression or tropical storm coming up in the next few days. it is going to take a few days because the environment is not

really favorable for it to intensify, but eventually once it exits that region and moves across the atlantic near the bahamas, that's when it could be intensifying. anyone across the southeastern u.s. needs to keep a close watch to the tropics. now it's wednesday, we have our science trivia question, but, steve, you beat me to it. the question is how many years has it been since the last hurricane landfall in florida, a, three years? c, ten? or d, 15 years? >> was brian listening? >> i'm going to say, no. is that the question? >> no. >> i will say, c. >> you're right. correct. it was ten years ago. >> steve just said it. >> i'm so sorry. >> thank you, maria. >> i like that one. we always get it right when you give us the answer before. >> there was a time when they were getting a hurricane every minute. >> meanwhile on this wednesday, hillary clinton's e-mail was just won't go away and karl rove is here to react to the latest bomb shell that happens to

social media and saying my niece brought this home from school today. what is happening to our country? well, he never expected the outpouring of support that he got online, and now the school is changing the wording of the opt out request. >> that uncle, micah braden joins us right now. micah, what prompted you to go public with your social media to put this up there? >> what the heck, right? i mean, i was just in complete shock. i thought it was a joke at first. i told my sister-in-law that i wanted to post it on the internet. i thought it should be out there after i found out it was real. and if you just look up there at the top line, it says -- pledge of allegiance request. not pledge of allegiance waiver or opt out. so, it came across to me as a

survivors, including this man. you can barely see him. he is trapped under a mountain of bricks, but you can hear him as he pleads for help. listen -- [ speaking in foreign language ] you can also hear the hear the other man telling the victim that help is on the way. look at this horrific aftermath from the sky, the city's mayor simply describing his town as gone. and then a chilling picture of this man who simply lucky to be alive this morning after he was pulled out from under a pile of debris. witnesses describe all of this as an apock liptist scene. tears running down the faces of victims. they look at with horror with what's left of their homes. now we're getting new information about another earthquake that struck over night, this one 6.8 magnitude,

this happening in burma, just moments away near india. right now we're working to learn more details and bring you the very latest on the two earthquakes as they unfold. another fox news alert right now. a new show of force from north korea coming in overnight. that country launching a ballistic missile from a submarine. it flew about 300 miles before it crashed into the ocean. this comes as the u.s. and south korea start a new round of joint military drills in the region. norad says the missiles did not pose a threat to the united states. >> back here at home, "the new york times" the latest possible target of a russian cyberattack. the hackers breaking into an unknown number of journalists e-mail accounts, inclupding other u.s. media organizations. those were also targeted. the fbi now say that it's likely to be the same hackers who were behind the dnc cyberattack that had a role in bringing down debbie wasserman schultz at the dnc. it's not clear what type of information was stolen from the

reporters or why. the clinton campaign claimed the dnc hack is proof that the russians are trying to help get donald trump elected to the white house. and this video just may give you chills. take a look at this -- well, you can see that little boy as he gets hugs from these police officers. that young man lost his police officer father. he was greeted by an army of replacements on his first day of school. those police officers lining up in the hallways in amarillo, texas, to wish him good luck. he looks like he's about kindergarten age or so, and then he walked happily into his classroom. those boys in blue do a nice job of standing up for one another and supporting one another's families. >> thank you very much. >> i love the low and high fives at the end. >> so cute. >> thanks, heather. >> thanks. joining us right now is karl rove. he's been following this election like nobody else. his analysis is invaluable. you know him deputy staff of

george w. bush. first off, over the last two weeks, karl, you've been a tough critic of donald trump in the past. do you think that they've gotten on track? >> i think they're going more in the right direction, yeah. i thought he had a good week last week. giving speeches from teleprompters, so he could drive home a message for that day. i thought the visit to louisiana was entirely well done. low key, focussed on the people there. didn't try to make a big splash with it. as a result, made a big splash. >> sure. >> i think the new management team, at least kellyanne conway, seems to be moving things in the right direction. >> yeah. karl, it came out today, 85 of the 154 non-governmental individuals who have access to hillary clinton while she was with the state department, they were also giving money -- they were donors to the clinton foundation. what was your reaction about that? >> pretty jaw dropping because realize this is only the first

two years of her -- only half of her term as secretary of state and half of the private individuals, more than half of the private individuals who show up, are contributors to the foundation and they gave over $150 million at least. this is after in january 2009 at her confirmation hearing she promised the senate foreign relations committee that she would avoid even the appearance of conflict. this strikes me as a big conflict. these were in some cases pleading for self interest. she appointed, for example, a guy who was a commodities trader in chicago. she was so -- he was totally unexperienced. totally unqualified and immediately forced to resign. but what was he this year? superdelegate for hillary in philadelphia. >> what are the odds. karl, right here outside one hour ago we had james carville on. of course he's been with the clintons for a decade. yesterday he said that if people stop giving to the clinton

foundation, people will die. he also today defended the clinton foundation and talked about how the clintons have never taken a penny. listen to this -- >> hillary and bill and chelsea clinton never taken a penny from the foundation, given it millions of dollars. the board serves without pay. it's a five-star rated foundation by charity watch. one of the best run foundations in the world. now, the idea that people involved in the foundation are also involved with public, private partnerships around the world, that's one of the things they do. so of course -- this does not count as the list pointed out, doesn't count heads of state of people in government -- >> so he's got no problem because they're doing some good work, according to him. and charity watch. >> well, charity navigators, a group that evaluates charities, criticized long ago criticized the foundations for spending too little on programs and too much on overhead, including some $40

million to move the clintons around the country. now, he may be right that they haven't taken a penny, but their lifestyle has been subsidized by it. and i believe chelsea clinton is actually now on the payroll of the foundation. look, this is stinky. sure they do good things. but they do good things in a bad way and in a way that makes it sound like it's quid pro quo. remember the canadian guy who gives several hundred million dollars, he does so after bill clinton flies on his airplane to kazakhstan in order to convince the kazak government to give him some concessions. he buys significant amount of uraniyuuranium assets. all the why giving money through a canadian front group to hide the names of the individual donors even though she said she would be completely forthcoming about every single donor in the foundation. now, look, this provides too many opportunities for conflict or at least the appearance of

conflict. either one of them undermines public confidence and trust in the president. if she is elected, they need to shut it down. no more using good quote good works to subsidize their lifestyle and put themselves in a place that looks like a conflict of interest and is a conflict of interest. >> wherp you were talking, i looked up it felt like it was raining for a second. there's a window washer machine 14, 15 stories up. maybe we can get a picture of that. >> we're not foaming at the mouth. real quick, let's talk about louisiana and the president showing up yesterday. two weeks later, doesn't really matter that much. you do remember how when he was the senator he hammered your ex-boss george bush. is he right it doesn't matter that much when you show up? >> well, it mattered a lot to them now. bush was actively involved in everything connected with katri katrina, pressuring the state and local officials to call an evacuation, talking to them

constantly, organizing federal resources, going there three days after it happened. this president -- this current president then criticized him saying it was, quote, passive indifference. well, we had this president, president obama so critical in 2005, stay on his vacation, have ten rounds of golf, spend a day at a private beach, go out four nights in a row out on the town, attend a hillary clinton fundraiser and then after his vacation is over he goes to louisiana and say i'm here, your president. so i think passive indifference was not an appropriate remark to describe president bush, but it is a good self analysis for president obama. >> sure. donald trump was able to go down there. we tried to get some pictures of him at certain events, but he said, look, it's close to the press. he didn't want to make it a campaign thing. >> i thought that was well done. >> incidentally, happy waffle day. >> thank you. >> you may not know this, but waffles have a presidential

connection. >> what do you mean? >> president william mckenny fell in love with his future wife when he saw her eating -- >> chocolate chip? >> excuse me. cream dough in ohio. she was tucking it into such gusto that he fell in love with her and eventually married her. >> is your book still available about william mckinly? >> it is. the trials of william mckinly. >> great. fantastic. >> karl, thank you very much for joining us from austin, texas. >> thank you, karl. >> thank you. by the way, up about 15 stories there's the window washer device. >> switching gears on this wednesday. coming up, fox news rocking italy overnight. at least 38 are dead that we

i'm standing next to a sign amatrice, one of the most beautiful cities. this city is devastated. people are in tears. they're in shock. what i find really interesting sort of as a side bar is that this surrounding areas are completely in tact. here i know there are different areas across central italy that have been affected. you look to one side and there are houses up right and on the other, just mounds and mounds of rubble that came down over people's heads at 3:30 this morning as they slept. it is absolutely devastating. streets here are choked with rubble and glass and nails and wire, making it incredibly difficult for those rescue and recovery personnel to get through. the hospital here had to be evacuated. it's falling apart from the earthquake. there are hospital beds and equipment all over the streets. they have to be taken somewhere

else. it's a high up here in the hills. it's not easy to get here. the whole situation is just absolutely devastating, brian, steve and ainsley, back to you. >> they went to sleep, amy, everything was normal and they woke up to this. >> reporter: yep. one guy said -- one was quoted as saying that he was so lucky he had a really early shift because he woke up and had -- it was a matter of seconds, seconds that he had to be alert enough to feel the tremor and get out of his house. he said had the timing been even a few seconds different he surely would have died because people are in a deep sleep at 3:30 in the morning and may not have heard the preliminary rumbl rumbles. there were several aftershocks. another concern is more aftershocks. the scramble is on to continue to look for any possible survivors and pull bodies out of

the rubble and try to make it somewhat safe here for everyone else who has to do a bit of work to clean up. back to you. >> amy, from the images we're looking at, it looks like the architecture in this particular part of amatrice where we took the pictures, looks like buildings build 100 years ago. it's not like they knew how to build buildings to with stand earthquakes back in the day. >> reporter: no. this city or this town dates back to the 12th century. there's incredibly obviously old monuments, old buildings. they weren't prepared for earthquakes. they didn't have the technology to prepare for them. other parts of italy in this region have made enormous advances in technology and from experience and have sured up all sorts of buildings and hospitals, but there are places that have been untouched by that. >> okay. amy, thanks so much. we'll check back. we appreciate the first-hand reporting. we change gears when we come back. a family boat ride turns into

blames the u.s. for 9/11? our next guest is the reporter who blew the story wide open. we have him live. there's something out there. that can be serious, even fatal to infants. it's whooping cough, and people can spread it without knowing it. understand the danger your new grandchild faces. talk to your doctor or pharmacist about a whooping cough vaccination today. ... 83% try to eat healthy. yet up 90% fall short in getting key nutrients from food alone.

allegations she once edited that opposes women's rights and blamed the u.s. for 911. i'm not kidding. the clinton camp denied she played an active role. it is called journal of human affairs which her mom runs but her name was listed for years as an assistant. joining us right now is paul sparery, with the new york post

columnist who broke the story. infiltrati infiltration. paul, tell me about this journal. what types of things are written in it? >> well, i found one article where the mother actually wrote an article arguing for the sub gentlemen gags of women and actually excuses wife beating. in another article, i found she actually blamed america and american foreign policy for 911 using the same excuses that osama bin laden used against us. >> so what about the linkage with huma? she was listed as an assistant editor? >> yeah, for 12 years from 1996 to 2008. and so, it's -- i mean, it's really hard for the campaign to reconcile this. they admit that she actually was on there, but they're saying well, she actually didn't do any

editing which is hard to believe because even if you buy that excuse, huma had to know how ode yoes this radical journal was because her mother was the editor and her brother and sister worked there as editors. >> so on top of that there is a linkage besides huma abedin, didn't hillary clinton speak -- didn't she have an event in saudi arabia where she addressed women? >> yeah. so if hillary had to know too about this. she went over to saudi arabia in 2010 as secretary of state to give a speech to the mother's radical -- >> you can't see it, but we're seeing her enter into the building with the mom and with huma. >> so she went over to this radical girl's school that's run by the radical huma abedin's radical mother and actually apologized for american women wearing bikinis. so i mean, is hillary really this champion of women's liberation? i mean, this is very problematic for the campaign because it's the centerpiece of it is hillary

stands up for women's rights, but here you have her campaign manager actually publishing articles that oppose women's rights as unislamic. >> and condemn america and yet huma abedin continues to work for, started asnd when she was still on the masthead for this journal. who do you think she believes, her mom or hillary clinton? >> that's a good question. clearly she has two faces. the face that we all see and then the face that she shows to the saudis and other radical muslims. so this raises a lot of questions that unfortunately aren't being asked of the campaign. i mean, if this was trump's campaign manager being attached to such an extremist publication, the media would be hounding him around the clock about this. >> no doubt about it. in fact, huma abedin's mom once wrote this, empowerment of women

does more harm than the benefit, cause of women or their relations with men. she wrote that in 1996 and she raised huma abedin. that's her daughter. so paul sperry, the big question is, this huma abedin went from intern to maybe the number one person in hillary clinton's life, the key aide, what does she believe? >> well, she could be running the white house as chief of staff if hillary gets in. >> paul sperry, thanks so much. appreciate it. >> thank you. more "fox & friends" when we return.
