9:00 am
that, the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty and is entitled to a fair trial. i ask that you guys allow the process to work. the next step in the process is to take it before a grand jury for preliminary hearing and the case because thank you very much, i appreciate you guys covering this and it will be all. >> harris: fox news alert as what we have been watching as we start off your "outnumbered" is the sheriffs county and prosecutors coming up to the microphones outside the courthouse for the suspect in yesterday's vicious shooting that left five dead and many injured, no bond. that's aspect being held, no bond pending a court appearance and those were the prosecutors who were explaining the case that they have already laid out before the judge.
9:01 am
they included some details that we now know with fresh confirmation. two entrances into that maryland newspaper where the shooter walked into yesterday. he barricaded one according to the prosecutors were just there talking with reporters. he then entered through the front door. that was the point that they made to the judge for holding him. without bond. the second was there was a victim who tried to escape through that back door, that victim was shot. those were some of the things that they laid out for the judge. the judge felt that was strong enough in addition to a lot of other information to hold him without bond. chris jacobs is life outside the courthouse in annapolis, maryland, with more. if a lot of information just the last few minutes. >> sorry about that, a little bit of technical difficulties. it is really moving fast here. you just heard from the attorney. we were just inside.
9:02 am
at one point, the judge said mr. ramos, you can say. he did not, he didn't say anything in the courtroom but as you know now, he is denying bail hearing. william davis as his public defender who will see this case through. he also asked for a gag order. that motion denied. but in the courtroom when the attorney was making the case of how grisly and brutal and calculated the execution was, it was apparent that the judge of is not going to grant bail of any kind as adams proved his threat. we also asked and just as very short hearing about the identification earlier this morning. the chief telling me that the stories of the mangled or screwed up fingers was not true. the state's attorney would not go into those fingerprints.
9:03 am
he did not want to talk about it. but the charging document that i have here saying that ramos was identified positively through surveillance video and of course adams then saying that he was charged in the middle of the night with five counts. what's going to happen next is a grand jury appearance will try to find out a little bit more and bring it to you a little bit earlier, if i could just step back 30 minutes ago just across town. also taking questions at the press conference. here's a little bit of what he said about the attack. to take listen. >> even before today, putting funding into this year's budget to hire a person just to do this. when we come across a person we think might be a threat one day to follow them on social media. in the next couple of months, you will see us bringing some of you on board to do that. unfortunately, we didn't get it done before yesterday.
9:04 am
because of that pattern of threats that ramos made against the capital because that certainly, was to follow him on social media in a defamation lawsuit five years ago that he made against article after writing about his harassment case. there's a lot more questions and is going to be hard to answer them with the suspect not talking. >> harris: for people who are watching it live on fox news because we covered both the authorities and the prosecutors live news conferences in the last while, chief altomare made a big deal out of the fact that it should be have known about the social media threats? should this have been a person that we were watching? and he said in a perfect world, yes. but they didn't. so this is something they are more than just a little sensitive to. if you see the changes that you're telegraphing to your reporting that they were getting ready to make for watching people that they need to keep an eye on social media. we'll come back to you as a news warrants. this has been changing by the
9:05 am
moments of as we learn more from annapolis, maryland, we will take you there live. a fox news alert now as we await remarks from the president. he is holding an event at the white house in the east room to celebrate six months of tax cuts. it's the anniversary point in the last few days in the white house says this event will feature "over 200 americans positively impacted by the new law." we are watching that we would bring to the president's comments as they happen live. stay close with us. you're watching "outnumbered," by the way. he reports that the president may quickly decide on a supreme court nominee to replace anthony kennedy who is retiring set july 31st. i'm harris faulkner. if you did it, coanchor of after the bell on the fox business network, melissa francis. the publican strategist and senior fellow for women's voice, lisa boothe. an anchor for the intelligence report on fbn, trish regan is here joining us in the center
9:06 am
seat former deputy assistant attorney general under president george w. bush, tom dupree. he has been doing triple quadruple duty on the network the last few days. your experience and perspective as we get ready to go into a new justice being named has been simply unmatched and so we are glad to have you for the conversation. >> thomas: bed lighted to be here. quite a "newsweek" ." >> harris: political reporting the right has a looking to settle on a nominee by the time the president leaves for his european trip on july 10th. candidate interviews are expected to begin next week. counselor to the president kellyanne conway said a short time ago on this network the process may move even faster than that. at a meeting last night, he discussed the supreme court vacancy with a bipartisan group of senators including moderate republican susan collins and lisa murkowski and red state democrats joe manchin, joe donnelly, and heidi heitkamp. but some other democrats said
9:07 am
the parties deep divide on full display holding a rally at the supreme court calling for resistance to the president's judicial nominee. watch paid >> this is a battle line that has been drawn that ly will put women's lives at risk that undermines our civil rights, our human rights. >> we now must fight. for those of us who believe that love is love is love is love. >> years from now, people are going to look at us and say where were you during that inflection? >> harris: so we are reaching incendiary points of debate right now. is the president right to move this very quickly or should he slow down? >> thomas: in my judgment, i think he is right to move things quickly. the fact is, this is a nomination -- he thought that nomination was controversial.
9:08 am
you haven't seen anything yet. whoever president trumpets up to fill the seat is going to fundamentally transform the supreme court perhaps for a generation or more. so doesn't surprise me at all that you already see people out there banging the drum opposing the nominee who hasn't even been identified yet. it does make sense to move quickly. it is a very thin margin and there really is very little room for error. if the republicans were to lose a few votes, that could sink the nomination entirely. i think the white house doing exactly the right thing. the conservative democrats didn't try to make sure that they can get enough of those votes to push their ultimate nominee over the margin. >> harris: more and more, we are seeing a situation, we sought on immigration, the president even telegraphed he didn't think it would ever pass the senate but in case it did, he was ready for signing that compromise bill. but he pointed out how difficult it might even be in the house. it is in the republican party trying to get to yes on some of
9:09 am
these issues just so they can say we checked all of these boxes? or has the game changed? >> lisa: i think on immigration is a little bit different because you look at the compromise bill, there wasn't a single democrat that voted for the bill. >> harris: that should be well within the party platform as a whole. you talk about a divide, educate me. and if you have a couple of moderates but that many votes? >> lisa: i think mitch mcconnell will be able to keep the publicans largely together on whoever has nominee is in the most important thing for president trump rather than even getting susan collins, i think it's more important for joe manchin, claire mccaskill, heidi heitkamp because what it does is it helps mitigate republicans and nominees from the attack from democrats who were already saying they're going to get rid of roe vs. wade et cetera, et cetera so what you do is you say exley this is a bipartisan effort and we have people on both sides of the aisle that support those nominees so i think that's the smartest thing for the
9:10 am
white house to be doing and they should absolutely be doing that right now. >> harris: you think it's important to do it now or do you think that divide between the publicans and democrats will only grow greater over the summer or can there be a cooling-off period when they get home to their constituents? >> trish: i don't think there's going to be any kind of cooling off any time. you ain't seen nothing yet. this is going to be a display that i don't think any of us are really going to like to see. but it's going to be intensified in the coming weeks, coming days, coming months. in this partisan divide is going to go stronger and stronger because you think about something like roe vs. wade which has already been fought out. for decades now. and is now taking on a whole other level. and people are going to say look, this has the power to reverse that for the future et cetera. there is such an emotional reaction to that legal decision and the fear that i could be
9:11 am
overturned and yet excitement perhaps from these and village evangelical base that wanted to be overturned so get ready. >> harris: you suck cory booker there and you've seen people who are very, very vehement about this and i've talked about this, we don't know the nominee is going to be an many democrats saying, not all, elizabeth warren such a way for the name. "your world" very generous of her. my question is more for tom. is it pandering to pick a younger woman judge? or is at the way to go? you look at people like amy barrett or joe larson, both from the seventh circuit who were on the list who are younger, more moderate women. >> harris: how does that pander? speak to your same because it's a younger more moderate women that's how she's going to vote and putting this person out there but she still to the writer center with strict constructionist. >> thomas: i would say is not pandering because those two candidates are supremely qualified on the supreme court.
9:12 am
i can find other women who people would say she's only being put out there because she's a woman but in these cases, those people, absolutely not. those would be terrific nominees and frankly pretty much everyone on the president's list. >> melissa: does it solve more problems? >> thomas: from a political calculus i could see it because certainly to the extent you're going to get attacked on a roe vs. wade and that sort of thing, i can see the value of having a female nominee but at the end of the day when he used to drive this is choosing the best justice. >> trish: amy barrett was question pretty aggressively by dianne feinstein. she's got a large family, seven kids. >> thomas: they're not going to give her a pass just because she's a woman. >> trish: the catholic thing came up in the hearings and there was pushed back to dianne feinstein on that saying we've already crossed that years ago, you can't beat asking people about their religion when it comes to their appointment. >> harris: he used a label against her as well, that was a pretty tough stage.
9:13 am
as we await for remarks from president trump, it will happen live we are told. holding a celebration to mark the six month anniversary of the tax cuts and jobs act. when it happens, we will take you there. he saved the life picture now, a lot of people in the room, this is clicking along as it happens, you'll see it live right here on out numbered. a plus immigration front and center of the first republican gubernatorial debate in florida. but it could mean for the midterm election. it was juicy. stay close. >> you're here illegally and the e-verify system, i don't think you should be able to take a job than an american may want to have. the democrats, they don't just want sanctuary cities, they're calling for florida to be a sanctuary state. that's the stakes of the selection. there's little rest for a single dad,

9:18 am
first g.o.p. gubernatorial debate in florida last night hosted by fox news. congressman ron desantis who has an endorsement of president trump hitting his opponent putnam as a week on border issues while putnam who serves as the sunshine states agriculture commissioner defended his own law and order credentials. watch. >> i will sign e-verify into law here in a state of florida. he won't do that because his big donors i find his companion one that chief foreign labor that lowers wages for floridians and bad for the rule of law, not good for taxpayers. your share has endorsed me and i'm excited about 45 cherubs who have endorsed me because they know both of our records and they know who is best for securing our borders and keeping floridians safe. picked >> melissa: president trump has endorsed it to santos. adam putnam has raised more money in the contest so far and is leading in the recent polls. florida will hold its primaries
9:19 am
august 28th. i'll ask you, what he think is going to happen here? >> lisa: putnam is up right now but he was the ag commissioner so he has run. he has ran statewide before. name ideas, name recognition, people know his name more than ron desantis, also he's been up on air longer. that he has been so we will see of those numbers change at all once he starts hitting the airwaves. i will point out on immigration this is sort of the same debate we've been seeing within the republican party for quite some time, it's what we saw during the 2016 primary election and part of the reason my present trump was able to move up in such a crowded field of 17. >> melissa: was different now is how much everybody is clinging to president trump all of a sudden. was into this. >> when donald trump was trying to win florida in 2017, adam putnam did not attend a single
9:20 am
valley with him. he couldn't find adam putnam if you had a search warrant. because you want to respond? >> i support our president. i support our president's agenda for our country. >> melissa: is that enough? >> trish: they're all saying that. actually think it's the candidates themselves that really matter and i think that trump certainly proved that. his charisma ability to sort of dominate the room or the rally shall we say took on a whole life of its own. so is not necessarily -- it helps to be back by the president, it helps to be seen as aligned with him, but ultimately, it will come down to who connects. and it all sounds corny to say but is true. it's who connects them better as a politician. actually think both of these gentlemen did a really good job and were extremely fiery. >> harris: i thought it was really interesting. there are some things that will be talked about in florida that may not be talked about as much
9:21 am
of the rest of the country because of the shootings that are happening, parkland, the pulse nightclub, not during this particular news cycle but is happened in the last couple of years. i'm going to cut myself off or breaking news. the president talking tax cuts, six month anniversary of the tax cuts and jobs act. if this is the east room at the white house and we are going to watch and listen together as we understand. you guys told me he was at the lectern but he is not. okay. there is the president but you know what happened? people sit down, they get ready and now we get to watch the door together. so we're going to stay on this now because we don't want to miss the president when he walks out. it's been interesting to see a little bit of a model in mainstream media, talking about some of the economic gains in accomplishments because some of them are undeniable. this tied to this presidency, many in his defense making the
9:22 am
argument that this is not the past administration. what you say about that? >> melissa: i have a new phrase for people, called trump deniers. it's when you deny the existence of anything possible that's a result of president trump in one of those things is what's going on with the economy and what's going on with jobs. and we've seen less regulation, lower taxes, spirits really renewed among entrepreneurs, they're getting out there and doing more things. yes, the tariffs are on the horizon possibly but he also may turn that into a great deal. >> harris: now hear the music from everybody standing up and everyone comes with their own camera these days so should we miss it on fox news? me of a lot of people with smartphones. the president of the united states today talking about the white house is calling a booming economy. east room white house, let's watch.
9:23 am
>> president trump: thank you very much. thank you. thank you. thank you very much, everybody. the economy is indeed doing wel well. six months ago, we unleashed an economic miracle by signing the
9:24 am
biggest tax cuts and reforms, the word reform, very important word, but the tax cuts is what got us there and that's what's really doing it. the biggest tax cuts in american history, now it's my great honor to welcome him back to the white house to celebrate six months of new jobs, bigger paychecks, and keeping more of your hard-earned money where it belongs, in your pocket or whatever else you want to spend. before going any further, and like to address the horrific shooting that took place yesterday at capital gazette newsroom in annapolis, maryland. this attack shocked the conscience of our nation and filled our hearts with grief. journalists like all americans
9:25 am
should be free from the fear of being violently attacked while doing their job. to the families of the victims, there were no words to express our sorrow for your loss. horrible, horrible event. horrible thing happened. and your suffering, we pledge our internal support. the suffering is so great, i've seen some of the people. so great. my government will not rest until we have done everything in our power to reduce violent crime and to protect innocent life. we will not ever leave your side. so our warmest best wishes and regrets. horrific, horrible thing. thank you.
9:26 am
but today's event, we are honored to be joined by our great vice president mike pence. the great secretary of agriculture. small business administrator, linda mcmahon doing an incredible job. director mick mulvaney.
9:27 am
and treasurer. thank you. thanks also to a really great friend of mine, mississippi governor phil brian and all of the other state local federal officials that have done so much to help us with this incredible tax cut and job plan. you see how it's working. although i have to say, i think the cutting of regulations may be had just as big an impact. i don't want to say this to you, but i think the cutting of regulations had just as big an impact. i also want to welcome juanita dugan, karen carrigan, n michael bell and then for helping us.
9:28 am
your support has been incredible in getting this very difficult legislation to the finish line. please stand up. what a team. great people. great team. thank you. and they were so many others in the room. you never going to speak to me again. but we are not going to give any more names. let's get down to business. other than these names are the important ones. we are also especially proud of republican members of congress who felt -- fought with us. we didn't get a democrat vote. we didn't get one vote for these massive tax cuts. so i want to thank roger wicker, representative diane black, kevin brady, what a warrior. kevin, come on. stand up.
9:29 am
mike kelly, my friend and jason smith, our great republican members of congress work night and day to score this landmark victory. this really was a landmark victory for their constituents but much more importantly for the country. unfortunately, every single democrat in the house and senate, every single one voted against lower taxes for the hardworking americans. and you see what's happening. it turned out to be something very special. the tax cuts and jobs act/income taxes all across the board. we nearly doubled the standard to deduction and the child tax credit which ivanka wanted very much. stand up, ivanka.
9:30 am
he's got a bigger hand than the politicians, you'd better be careful. that means you're all in troubl trouble. the typical family of four earning $75,000 will see an income tax cut of more than $2,000 and in some cases more. slashing their tax bill in half. we cut tax bills for businesses of all sizes to make this the best place on earth to start a business, to invest. we have billions and billions of dollars of additional revenue coming in. we lower the corporate tax rate to the american worker finally has a level playing field. we allowed companies to deduct every single penny of investment in new equipment and it's called expensing. it's the biggest secret in the planet. i think it'll go down as may be the most important element, its one-year expense no one that we'd ever ever see that. so incredible for starting up a
9:31 am
business are running a business. we greatly reduced the burden of the unfair estate tax commonly known as the death tax. at such a big thing, and most farms and most small business will not pay any estate tax for death tax anywhere. we created opportunity zones to promote more jobs and low income communities. we opened and more, that's a big one. no president could get it for many years, i wasn't going to do it because i was angry at someone. i said i'm not going to do it. nobody could do it. they've been trying for 50 years. let's do that immediately. like a challenge.
9:32 am
and they've started that process, going to be one of the biggest in the world. they also repealed in our tax cut plan, repealed the unpopular thing i've seen in a long time or legislation, the individual mandate on obama. the individual mandates, how about that one? is not a very good one. that's when you have the privilege of getting to pay a fortune in order to not pay did not have bad health care, about that. in other words, you pay a lot of money not to have health care so it's not working too good. that's a big thing. we've got no credit, but that's okay. that's okay. i've had some people come up to me and say they like that is much as the tax cuts.
9:33 am
it was a big thing. and obamacare is just about ove over. we have come up with so many plans. we have a plan coming out, and additional plan, secretary coming out in very short period period of time which is going to be perhaps match your plan from department of labor them is something very special months after i tax cuts, more than 6 million workers have received bonuses, pay raises, and retirement account contribution contributions. and one of the beautiful elements of what i do, i love to see happy faces. but i'll stand on the line sometimes before or after his speech and i'll be with a lot of people that want pictures for whatever reason, they want a picture of me. and i stand with the police a lot. i now see a policeman and a particular one in new york city,
9:34 am
and he said sir, i want to thank you. he would may be a hero to my wife into my family. i've always been a horrible investor. but this year, my 401(k). think of it, it is up 46%. my wife thinks i'm a genius and i'm the greatest investor for the first time in my life. and in terms of value or worth, we've created $7 trillion worth of value for our country and people don't know this. we are double the size, almost double the size because we hear china and china is terrific. i relationship is terrific. the balance and i think most people want to see that. but we are the largest economy in the world by far. and as you know, we've increased a lot over the last one half years but we are almost double the size of china and far bigger
9:35 am
than anybody else. and we are going up very rapidly is going to continue to go up. the biggest in the world by far. think of that. did you know that? the biggest economy in the world by far. that's the only way to do it. it's pretty good. they helped us a little bit. just a little, but that's okay. so the share of small businesse businesses, raising benefits and pay is just set a new all-time record and manufacturing optimism to me is so important because it's all about optimism is the highest ever recorded. this is a statistic that's been around for a long time. highest ever recorded, hundreds of billions of dollars are coming back from overseas, over
9:36 am
$300 billion was just repatriated into our country in the first quarter alone. think of that. 300 billion. monday we would have never would've seen. trillions more dollars are on their way back and as you know, apple announced they're going to spend $350 billion, not million, would've been happy with that, but $350 billion is being brought back. i guess the total amount they're bringing back is approximately 230 billion in there putting up the rest the old-fashioned way, bringing this money back. it would never have come back, they're going to build an incredible campus and lots of other things. we just left wisconsin and with their building up in wisconsin is literally, and i said it, the eighth wonder of the world, it's incredible what they're doing. 15,000 jobs, going to cost $15 billion. it is something that is incredible and you have to go
9:37 am
see it, no one would believe it's happening. more than 100 utility and companies have rose as a result of our tax cuts saving americans $3 billion on their utility bills. utility bills are going down. unemployment claims are at a 44 year low. that's a good one. 44 years. something i am so proud of. i love it. unemployment for african-americans is at the lowest level in the history of our country. i'm looking at kevin, that was a good job, you are right about that. that is something. we were all right. everybody in this room was right. i have to say, unemployment or
9:38 am
for hispanic americans likewise at the lowest point in the history of our country. unemployment. unemployment for women, if you listen to my speech two weeks ago, he would've heard me say as a lewiston 21 years. now i'm saying is the lowest in five years and soon will be the lowest in history. a big difference. 21 years, 65 years. hopefully in a week or two, it'll be history. 65 years as a long time. i'm also very proud to say that unemployment for the disabled americans has reached record lows giving these incredible americans the chance to realize their unlimited potential and that's what it is, unlimited potential. many former inmates are also getting a second chance at life. we are keeping our promise to
9:39 am
buy american and higher american and what's happening is our economy is so good, our unemployment is so low in our employment is so high, maybe that's an even nicer way of saying it. and people that want to get a second chance, inmates, people coming out of jail where the stigma was so great, people were hiring. they're hiring them now in record numbers and these businesses are saying they are fantastic. they are set. and as one gentleman in particular, he hired ten inmates, never did it before. and he said i wouldn't say he said all of them, but he said seven of them are so incredible. not a bad percentage. i think that's a better percentage than we have. he said seven of them are as good as he's ever had and he's going to do a lot more of it. so there's nothing like a great
9:40 am
economy to solve that problem. right? and chris, thank you very much. but this is all because we are one country and really want a family and we salute when great and beautiful american flag. we love that flag. and at last, our country finally has a tax system that is pro-jobs, pro-worker, pro-family, and pro-american. so one incredible citizen who has benefited from our tax cuts and jobs act is filled. if i had another daughter, i think i would name her that. can i copy it? i like that name.
9:41 am
of jacksonville, florida, great place, i know it well. she is the director at customer care at crowley marine. following the tax cuts and jobs act, crowley was able to pay employees like her a big tax cut bonus. they took a lot of money and they gave it around to the employees. that bonus will help support the education of her two sons, cameron christian. pretty good. pretty good. we are so happy for your family and i know your sons are going to make you very proud. the great young men. and please, would you say a few words? >> thank you mr. president for
