neil: and he is extremely, extremely popular in new jersey. he's regretting not running for governor because he's being taxed up the ying-yang as we speak. that will do it here. we'll see you monday with this whole supreme court thing and we continue on fox. . >> north korea calling talks with secretary of state mike pompeo, quote, regrettable, accusing the u.s. delegation of trying to unilaterally pressure the hermit kingdom to abandon nuclear weapons. we're going live to tokyo where secretary pompeo landed earlier this morning. >> plus, the supreme court guessing game. who is on the short list for monday's announcement and what it means for the future of the courts. >> caught on video, passengers quite literally keeping the inside of their airplane together. we're going to tell you exactly what happened moments after this video was shot.

♪ boy, that doesn't look like a flight i would like to be on. welcome from news headquarters from washington. i'm elizabeth prann. >> good to be with you at home, i'm leland vittert. mixed signals you might say by north korea and secretary of state mike pompeo. he said his third meeting with officials in the hermit kingdom was productive, but his north korean counterparts don't have that view of things. earlier today the secretary arrived in tokyo following the meeting. rich edson to break it down for us. boy, you think that the north koreans and u.s. were in different meetings based on the readings. >> the secretary of state arrived a couple of hours ago. the north korean foreign ministry greeted him with a much different assessment of the two-day meeting than he had

offered in pyongyang. the secretary spoke to reporters at the airport before leaving for pyongyang in which he said they made progress in all of the central issues in the past couple of days and the north korean foreign minister said they'd come to north korea with robber-like proposals of relieving north korea of the nuclear weapons and they were regrettable. >> that the trust that they built during the singapore summit will deepen as talks progress. on that front, secretary pompeo offered a similar perspective. >> kim is still committed. i had a chance to talk to president trump this morning. my counterpart spoke with chairman kim during the course of our negotiations as well. we had productive, good-faith negotiations. >> in that conversation, pompeo refused to comment on whether north korea agreed to my

timeline or a way to account for the nuclear arsenal. he would only say the two discussed it. and they tried to reach agreement on difficult issues. the state department says that the defense department and north korean representatives will meet next week in the denaturalized zones between north and south korea to try to retain the remains of service members killed in the korean war. the specifics on how or when north korea would surrender its nuclear program are elusive. the secretary noted a couple of months ago speaking at the beginning this have process that he'd imagine that any type of negotiation with north korea to this end could take a lot of time and have highs and lows and certainly on the second point, he's right. >> you might say. rich edson live from tokyo. we'll have more.

there's more on the fallout of secretary pompeo's meeting in north korea and how the north koreans are dealing with this, gordon chang coming up in a little while and dana perino on fox news sunday. you don't want to miss this, check your local listings for time and channel. >> and touting the economics numbers and strength. at the same time some american workers are beginning to feel the sting of escalating trade war with china as a fresh wave of tariffs went into effect yesterday. let's bring in south carolina congressman, thank you for joining us here. initially you said the president just wants fair trade and you didn't necessarily want to support of tariffs a couple of months ago. what is your reaction now? >> well, i think, elizabeth, it's the right thing to do. if you look at what this president is doing, making this

country energy independent, he's trying to make us so we're not dependent on foreign countries, mainly for our military under 232. so, it's still important to be made in america? yes. is the fact that we are so dependent on our military and even more so now. so-- >> you said before, the goals are basically to make the u.s., you know, more independent. is this going to work? obviously, the tariffs really hitting some of those red states, especially some of your constituents. we've seen volvo say they may be leaving south carolina. that doesn't help any of your constituents. >> yeah, but you know, in particularly soy beans. china is not-- they're hitting us where they know it hurts and farmers are feeling the pinch as the bmw's of the world, boeings, one is in south carolina, long-term, i think it's good for the country and he's not doing it-- he mentioned 400 billion in tariffs, it's down to 30

billion. and this president is, i think, making the right moves for country and look at the jobs he's producing. look at new core steel ramping up steel production and as did he with samsung on tariffs, he gave him to ramp up production and i think he'll do that with the different products we're making. >> what do you tell voters feeling the pain? are you telling them it's short-term for long-term gain? what do you say when they say listen, we're not going to be able to afford to keep this up. >> i had a steel manufacturer call me last night and i don't know the time frame and he agreed this should have been done decades ago, but this president is taking it, it's phasing it in, despite what the press is reporting, i think it's-- and he-- this manufacturer said i know it's right for the country. it's going to hurt for a while, prices are going to increase. the day you can fix a price if

you've go the steel, lumme in it are -- aluminum in it. when you take medicine for the first time, you hurt for a while and i think that's what some of the manufacturers are-- >> but how long are we talking though? are we talking a couple of months? are we talking a couple of years? are these jobs lost forever? many so of this may be unsustainable when you talk to many so of these voters? >> no, i don't think-- i think as an example, the engines that are on bmw's are imported. you're going to have manufacturers ramping up to make engines for cars in south carolina and as well as other parts of the country. the farmers, it's going to take a while. look at soy beans. we export a lot of soy beans and china, that's 30% of what they impo import. so the farmers are going to be hurt and they're going to take the opportunity to diversify and

important things that we'll be doing with steel, aluminum and look at the jobs. the economy is doing great. >> the economy is doing great. devil's advocate, these are fresh. these tariffs are new, we haven't necessarily seen the full effects. i'm curious as to what the end game is, if this is a lot of rhetoric and posturing? is it going to end up to create some type of a deal that we're just not privy to yet? >> well, probably all of the above. this president's a poker player. i like that about him. i think that he-- >> but a poker player with the jobs in your district, respectfully. >> well, i've been to most of the businesses in the fifth district and i think you talk to other congressmen, the problem now is getting enough worker to produce the products the company is making. i think a lot of it is, again, the tax policy, but what he's doing with tariffs, his greatest

statement was let's do away with tariffs altogether and of course, you see the reaction from china and canada, and mexico, they don't agree to that, but he's phasing it in. and i think the country's going to be better off for it. it hasn't been the rash of layoffs. the effect has been the opposite. people are hiring and they're optimistic. they're investing. it's a combination of a lot of different things, but the tariffs, why is it fair for china to charge us 25% and us to charge 2 1/2%? it's not. he campaigned on this. the country elected him on this. >> yes, they did. >> he's fulfilling his promises. >> let's look at the jobs numbers and we looked at the market yesterday. you're right, we had to sort of see how it pans out over the next couple of months and hopefully have you back, congressman. thank you for your perspective. >> it's a pleasure. >> president trump is up in new jersey for the weekend and expected to nount--

announce his nominee for the supreme court. and garrett tenney joining us with the short list that he's working from. >> the president says he's narrowed to two or three and sources familiar tell that vice-president mike pence met with three finalist this is week and those he met with, brett kavanaugh, amy coney barrett and raymond kethledge. a little about those, brett kavanaugh serves in democrat, oft oft often-- and he served in the push white house. the 63-year-old previously served as a law clerk for the justice he may replace, anthony kennedy. amy coney barrett serves on the 7th court of appeals and a former clerk for antonin scalia

and mother of seven children. she was in the headlines last year for her nomination for her current seat when democrats questioned how her catholic beliefs would determine her judgment in the court. and republican senator susan collins expressed concerns about barrett to the white house though officials believe that collins would ultimately support barrett if she gets the nomination. inside the white house there is a growing since that raymond kethledge could be the front runner among the three. the 51-year-old serves on the circuit. and no stro stranger for capitol serving as a clerk for anthony kennedy. and a politically charged ruling for obama administration to discover if the irs was targeting conservative groups. the white house is considering a rollout package for thomas

hardiman, and he's a dark horse for the nomination. the president and vice-president will be meeting today to compare notes over the past week. >> and john roberts bringing up hardiman's name. and garrett tenney, thank you. with that we bring in the president of the constitutional accountability center and carey severino. and as you can't tell by the organization, we let carrey on the left and-- put them in order, you'll be pretty happy, you'll be unhappy, fair? >> absolutely. >> any differences between any of these judges or talking about flavors of haagen-dazs ice

cream? >> so many amazing students, that's a great problem to have choosing among the list like this. these are people of records being able to listen fairly on both sides and sticking close to the laws that were passed by congress and the constitution itself. so that puts the power back where it should be and the people and the legislature, not the judiciary. >> shockingly, liz, i think you have a slightly different view of the four of them together. >> i think it's important to look at what the president said himself during the campaign, that he had explicit litmus tests, the first among them being willing to overturn roe versus wade. he said that over and over and over gurg during the campaign and arguably bun of his most important campaign promises. we can assume if someone is on the list, a shortness list, that they've been on list including overturning roe versus wade. >> and when the president said are you going to ask about that,

he said definitively, no. orrin hatch, well respected senator writing, no matter the nominees' background or credentials progressives will do everything to do to paint, operative word, her as a closet partisan. and assuring that we can find the supreme court justice america needs, a justice who says the law is not what she wants it to be. that coming from the desert news in orrin hatch's home town of salt lake city. do you think we could draw anything for that? >> maybe senator hatch has a favorite on the list. i don't think the president has made a final call. >> it is a woman on the list, amy coney barrett. she is new to the federal bench, not new to the law, she was a professor at notre dame. her hearing with dianne feinstein during the circuit court process court of appeals

brought in impact. >> when you read your speeches, the conclusion one draws is that the dogma lives loudly within you and that's of concern. >> if you're asking whether i take my faith seriously and catholic, i am. my religious belief would not bear on my duties as a judge. >> would this push back on any of the four judges? >> i don't think so. it doesn't matter what someone believes in their personal life-- >> this became a rallying cry for the left. >> i think now we're talking about the supreme court, we have a little bit more of her record. that's what this is about. whether someone is going to be a fair-minded constitutionalist, following the whole constitution not just the part that they like, including the transformative 14th amendment

which guarantees the quality and dignity and that's really where the abortion right and many other rights like lbgt equality-- >> i've got to give carrie 15 seconds on this, fair to say that the right is going to say unfairly attacking someone because of their religious beliefs rather than rulings and precedence? >> i hope that she's right and they don't go down that route constitutional and that sounds like a he religious test for office. and i hope they go high. >> with optimism, we'll have a lot to talk about in the next couple of weeks or months and the hearings in september for a vote. all right, fox news sunday tomorrow, dana perino in for chris wallace. she'll talk with lindsey graham

and we'll hear what he thinks of orrin hatch's article in the news. and we'll talk about tomorrow 11 a.m. eastern. >> let's take a live look now at chicago where a march against gun violence is expected to shut down traffic on the dan ryan expressway. a major historic highway, some believe it was originally built to separate white communities from the poor black communities in the 1960's. protesters there are saying they're trying to get public officials to address gun violence in hundreds of cities, but of course, specifically chicago. >> up next, republican congressman jim jordan hitting back that he was ignoring abuse reports as he was a wrestling

coach at ohio state. >> i never saw, never heard of, never was told of any type of abuse. if i had of, i would have dealt with it. >> just landing after a long night and then this. landing at washington's dulles airport this week. the cabin ceiling literally caves in. what flares had to do next and live on the ground in thailand. the rains are heading in, as our own jeff paul is outside the cave holding those young boys trapped inside by flood waters. what do you have there?

are you in good hands?

>> some tense moments caught on camera on board in united airlines flight as a ceiling panel landed on passengers below oust of dulles, washington this week. the passengers held onto pieces of the panel until the plane stopped. flight attendants were not able to help because of safety concerns, but officials say no injuries at this time are reporte reported. leland: help explain this, okay, aren't the flight attendants supposed to be there for your safety? so we're going to let the passengers hold up the ceiling panels and flight attendants are

seated. elizabeth: if you're on the flight, you've got to take matters into your own hands and get up and do it yourself. leland: at least they were on the ground. elizabeth: they made it onto the grounds. but some tense moments. leland: rescuers in thailand are working to rescue 12 boys and the soccer coach stranded for nearly two weeks. elizabeth: yeah, the rain could make things really difficult they say. leland: jeff paul in thailand now arrived at the cave. jeff, we know rain in the forecast. has it already started? >> yeah, it rained this morning when we arrived here on the scene to where rescue crews in this remote area of thailand are sort of staging as they try to work to get the boys out. and this green area you see behind me, that's as close as we can get to the cave where those 12 soccer players and their coach are currently trapped. and now the governor of this

particular area in thailand recently said they cannot wait any longer for a better time to get these kids out. they can't wait around for better conditions that they need to get them out soon. two options, pretty much being tossed around right now to get the kids out. either try to drill down to extract these boys or they could use some of the divers, the expert divers to use a buddy dive, what they call it, to get the kids out. now, both options obviously carry their dangers and the dive option has a little bit more dangers because the kids don't know how to dive. they know how to scuba dive. so they're getting a crash course right now. the other thing we mention, too, to get into the cave, five or six hours just to get where the boys are and another five or six hours to get them out if everything goes well. so, pretty dangerous out here right now. leland: dangerous to say the least. jeff. give us a sense since you just arrived there. how remote of an area is that? are they having to fly people

in, helicopters, not easy to move. what's it like logistically? >> so the good news is that about a half hour away from here is one of the main cities in this province where we are, and so, they can fly people in easily with those resources. the challenge is then getting them up to here and even bigger challenge is getting those resources into the cave and kids and soccer coach. we're going to report that the coach sort of penned a letter and sent it out through one of the divers apologizing to the parents of the kids on his team. leland: all right. jeff paul there, already the middle of the night in thailand. back to jeff if this rescue operation begins. as he noted it's five or six hours into the cave. the rescue divers have been going in daily and sort of have this train going to bring supplies into the kids and also

bringing out notes from these children, and some of them are heartbreaking to read. elizabeth: they are. leland: love you mom and dad, you don't have to worry, we're all safe. love you all. here is another one of the notes from the ap, who took pictures of it, mom and dad, i love you and toy. if we get out, these take me out for some pork pan barbecue. elizabeth: another one here, mom and dad, please don't worry, i'm fine, i've told to get ready to take me out to fried chicken, with love. leland: i think this is the note that jeff was talking about, which is from the coach who led this soccer team in on a post practice or post game kind of expedition. to all the parents of the kids right now, the kids are all fine, the crew are taking good care. i promise we'll care for the kids as best as possible and you think about the parents sitting outside this cave and it's one thing for your kids to be in danger, one thing for your kids to be in trouble and another thing to be completely helpless, sitting outside watching this rescue effort. i can't imagine.

we'll obviously keep a close eye on that over the next couple of hours. and coming up, a memorial service is underway this other in annapolis, maryland, honoring one of the journalists killed in the capital gazette shooting. wendi winters is one of the five employees who died last week. she joined the gazette in 2013 after working for a free-lancer more than ten years. she was known for community reporting in annapolis. she was 65 years old and leaves behind four children. services for robert hiaasen were held and john mcnamara for tuesday. and jonathan fishman, a service is planned to honor his life. for years i've trained dogs for the marines -

like me, some of these dogs have seen many tours of duty. and for the past 15 years i've been a navy federal member. thanks to their fast approval process, when it came time to buy a new car, we got everything we needed to transport my wife's little bundle of joy... ... who i just adore. open to the armed forces, the dod, veterans and their families. navy federal credit union. just for a shot. but why go back there when you can stay homefice with neulasta onpro? strong chemo can put you at risk of serious infection.

in a key study neulasta reduced the risk of infection from 17% to 1%, a 94% decrease. neulasta onpro is designed to deliver neulasta the day after chemo and is used by most patients today. neulasta is for certain cancer patients receiving strong chemotherapy. do not take neulasta if you're allergic to it or neupogen (filgrastim). an incomplete dose could increase infection risk. ruptured spleen, sometimes fatal as well as serious lung problems allergic reactions, kidney injuries and capillary leak syndrome have occurred. report abdominal or shoulder tip pain, trouble breathing or allergic reactions to your doctor right away. in patients with sickle cell disorders, serious, sometimes fatal crises can occur. the most common side effect is bone and muscle ache. if you'd rather be home, ask your doctor about neulasta onpro. pay no more than $25 per dose with copay card.

>> well, this weekend, ohio

congressman jim jordan hit being back at accusations that he ignored sexual abuse while a coach at ohio state. last night with bret baier saying no one reported abuse to him, athletes saying otherwise. that would bring in gillian turner. no surprise that jim jordan has a look at other parts of the republican party and calling ohio state at the time a cesspool of deviancesy. not what you want headed into a leadership. >> and our fox news sources on capitol hill are saying even if these are proven unfounded, the allegations, it may negatively impact his chances in the future because stuff like this tends to stick. >> yeah, for a long time. >> so the latest out of this is that the ohio congressman is hitting back against accusations from six separate people that he ignored sexual abuse while coaching wrestling at ohio state

university. an exclusive fox news interview last night, he told bret baier all of the allegations are untrue. >> it's false. i never saw, never heard of. never was told about any type of abuse. if i had been, i would have dealt with it. our coaching staff, we would have dealt with it. these are our student athletes. >> athletes are claiming abuse by richard strauss, he served on the medical team and conducted research for two decades and passed away in 2005. the most vocal accuser, wrestler, claimed he knew about it for a year. >> jim jordan as a coach, as a friend and, but at the end of the day, i've got a duty to myself and other victims to tell the real story, not a fake

narrative. >> but jordan insists to fox news that no one ever reported misconduct or abuse through official channels. >> conversations in a locker room are a lot different than allegations of abuse. >> now, several house g.o.p. sources, as well as a member of house republican leadership tell fox news they've got questions. well, none are willing to speak on record as of yet. they all say they want clarity what jordan meant when he referenced locker room conversations. >> and there are big questions in terms of exactly who disabato is and his background. >> and president trump says he's standing by the embattled congressman and he had a conversation. and filling the seat that will determine the balance of the supreme court, liz. >> that's right, now we're going to get to the trump

administration and china's leadership. they've been imposing tens of billions of tariffs on each other's goods, we know that. especially with yesterday's news, but a strong u.s. jobs report for june seems that it will help offset much uncertainty from those trade tensions. here is to discuss is steve forbes. thank you for joining us. anywhere we see a headline, that we're in a trade war. is that really what's going on? >> though, these askirmishes. if we were in a war, you'd see it in the market. it's not a full scale war. >> are you saying that because you feel confident with the market yesterday or the jobs market or both? >> the economy is strong, the only big cloud, immediate cloud hanging over the economy right now is the possibility of a full scale trade war.

when you trade, you have to consider that tariffs are sales taxes, and when you put sales taxes on consumers on businesses, everyone is hurt, so, yes, another country like china or the europeans may be hurt more if you have a full scale war, but we'll be hurt as well. we should have learned that from the 1930's. so the markets are counting on the fact, there are skirmishes now, like soy bean growers and sales taxes go on, but the markets figure in the next few weeks, these things will somehow be resolved and we won't have a full-scale war. elizabeth: that's where i'm lost. how is it going to be solved? we're seeing who is getting targeted and especially those red states, vulnerables, soy bean agriculture. how will it be resolved? what if china ups the ante and say they start increasing costs

and other things that make it more difficult and that affects more than certain items? >> this is where i think some of-- maybe some of our policy makers haven't fully realized. there's more than one way to fight these wars, if you go into a war. for example, apple has $40 billion of sales inside china. gm sells more cars inside china than it does in the u.s. so you start to put a crimp on those, that's not a tariff, but by golly, that hurts businesses everywhere. so, in terms of how this thing will be resolved with the europeans, i think they're going to have to sit down as trump, president trump the other day threw out, they didn't follow up on it, and have a full scale free trade negotiations, get rid of a lot of these barriers, get rid of a lot of tariffs. with china i think we're going to have to unite with our european allies and get looking at stealing trade secrets from our companies and the like. not let companies have full

access to the china market. you can target. instead of sales taxes on products, target specific industries or companies inside china. target a specific bank that you know is doing things it shouldn't be doing and you pull the plug on one of those banks it goes down if you cut it off from what they call the swift system. there are laser-like ways to deal with abuses rather than sales taxes on products as we're now in the process of doing, they're doing. elizabeth: i have one very, very quick question. you talked a lot about specific targets. there's a possibility of boycott america, iphones, automobiles, things that are popular, nike. that's just not even in the realm of possibility, is it? people buy things they love and going to buy things they love regardless of what pressures they may feel, am i right? >> well, people can get patriotic. i'm old enough to remember 15 years ago when we had the iraq war, and we were mad at the french so we were changing the

name of french fries to freedom fries and things like that, we weren't going to buy french perfume or french wines. and those things take on a live of their own. the chinese are a nationalistic people. and they might not buy the buick they might want and wait for the purchase. elizabeth: steve, thank you. >> thank you, appreciate being with you. elizabeth: leland. leland: now we'll tell you what's coming up after the break. democrats have it out for the supreme court options. and we'll look at senators who may break rank for the pick and the president welcoming a fight over his policy on the border. can he force democrats to move to the left? >> the democrats want open borders which means lots of crime. we want tough, strong, powerful borders and we want no crime and we are going to protect ice. we protect ice.

they protect us, and we protect them. having mplaque psoriasise is not always easy. it's a long-distance run. and you have the determination to keep going. humira has a proven track record of being prescribed for over 10 years. humira works inside the body to target and help block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to symptoms. in clinical trials, most adults taking humira were clear or almost clear and many saw 75% and even 90% clearance in just four months. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal, infections and cancers, including lymphoma have happened as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where

>> democratic senators from states that president trump won already facing big questions if they will vote to confirm president trump's supreme court pick. one of those, joe donnelly of indiana, facing a tough reelection this year and also one of the few democrats to vote for neil gorsuch, bringing an expert to indiana politics and politics in general, i say a man who can opine on anything at a moments's notice. tony katz. >> good to see you. leland: everyone agrees it doesn't matter which of these four judges picked on the short list, a lot of folks who are happy, a lot of folks unhappy. it doesn't matter who you pick. does donnelly vote to confirm them, whatever the trump's pick

is? >> you know, donnelly is an interesting, interesting bird, but go back to the first point, you're absolutely right. knowing the subtle differences between judicial process, between some of these nominees, there are experts out there. and only a few of them who really know it. everyone else is going a bit by feel and what they're hearing. what the key here is, no matter who gets picked. what you're going to hear is worse than hitler. that's what's going to happen. so it doesn't matter who the nominee is. here in indiana, there's a conference call of civil rights leaders scheduled for 9:30 p.m. on monday and mr. president going prime time with this, well-played. there's a conference call scheduled 9:30 p.m. with civil rights leaders, they don't know who the nominee is, it's like a game of mad-libs. they say this is why this is the worst person in the world. and who is leaked out as nominee, it isn't helpful at all. leland: a number of democrats haven't waited for the nominee to, as you would say, lose their

minds. go ahead and take a listen to a couple of democratic senators. >> the american people must know what's at stake in this nomination. overturning roe would take us back to the days of women being severely injured and dying because they can't get basic medical care. >> the future of america is at stake. this is a battle line that has been drawn that literally will put women's lives at risk. leland: you agree it's a bat line? obviously, you agree over what the battle line is. >> no one knows what that is. it is polls well. it has no actual meaning. there's no substance behind these sentences. so we're perfectly clear. no matter who goes on to the court, it's not like roe versus wade all of a sudden disappears? and why is it i live in a world where roe vs wade is sacrosanct,

but the second amendment is up for debate? it's a curious one-two punch that the political left wants to deliver. back to joe donnelly, he's in a tough spot, joe manchin, heidi heidkamp and others. >> and one voted yes on gorsuch and if you talk to the progressive left they hate kennedy right now. i don't know who he's trying to bring over to his side when even his base would disagree with that very statement. leland: back to claire mccaskill, her opponent coming up in the general, most likely her opponent is the attorney general down there, a guy named josh hawley, said that this is going to be, her vote on the supreme court nominee, is the defining issue of the campaign. come november are voters can to really remember what happened here in the summer and if

there's a vote in september? >> well, i think that the economy will still always trump all, but the answer is, yes, because claire mccaskill's made a decision. she's part of the resistance. you might as well give her a tattoo and something to cover her face when she goes about protesting. she wants to be resistance 24/7, 365. well, resistance to common sense conversations or resistance to a justice who's clearly qualified regardless of whether it's amy coney barrett or mike lee or one of the others, that's resistance and obstructionists, and america isn't into obstructionists. there are independent voters and moderate voters who aren't interested in that. claire mccaskill has better had entire career against this and she's not running against todd aiken. leland: and after we see more on

the name and battle lines, we'll have you back. appreciate you coming in on the weekend. liz. elizabeth: the trump administration works to reunite families at the border, one federal judge delaying a ruling on the president's request to extend that deadline. paying too much for insurance that isn't the right fit? well, esurance makes finding the right coverage easy. in fact, drivers who switched from geico to esurance saved an average of $412. that's auto and home insurance for the modern world. esurance. an allstate company. click or call.

>> a federal judge delaying the trump administration's request for more time to reunite at least 100 children under the age of five with their family members after being separated under the president's zero tolerance policy. joining us now with more insight, jessica vaughan, immigration studies. thank you for joining us, can you explain and set the stage for us why this is taking so long? obviously, there's no precedent, am i right? >> well, that's right. and the agency that took custody of the kids, hhs, is more used to dealing with unaccompanied kids, people, kids whose parents paid smugglers to bring them in illegally. this deadline that the administration is dealing with applies to kids who were separated after their parent was cut into proceedings for prosecution for coming illegally and they're spread all across the country and it's, you know,

it's a very kind of arbitrary deadline they're trying to meet her and it's complicated because the administration doesn't want to repeat the disasters that happened under the obama administration where the policy was to just release the kids as quickly as possible to almost anybody who would claim them. they're actually, first of all, making sure that the person who is taking the child is the child's parent, that it's a suitable home, that they have the ability to support them, that they don't have problematic criminal backgrounds and they've already found a couple of those who do have criminal histories that would make you pause at releasing a child to them. so, it's not that easy. they're scattered all over the country and logistically it's very difficult. elizabeth: so it's an arduous process and they're up against a deadline. can you sort of walk me through what we are going to see the next week because that deadline is fast approaching and i'm not sure there's a huge amount of confidence that officials will be able to meet those standards.

>> well, it is an arbitrary deadline, but my understanding, they've already reunited about 85% of the small number of kids who are under the age of five and that's the first deadline coming up, at the very beginning of next week. and the cases that are taking longer, that they've asked the judge for more time for, are potentially problematic cases where they need to look into the background a little bit more and it seems like the judge may be willing to let them do that if the government can show specific reasons why they're hesitating on certain placements. elizabeth: do these officials have the resources? i mean, this takes time and there's a lot of people. is there simply enough manpower right now? >> well, they're bringing in agents and officers from dhs as well as hhs, to washington, to work in kind after war room setting, they're working 24/7 on

matching up parents and background checks and getting information from the parents. it's going to be hard, but they're trying to do it as quickly as they can. they want to comply with the law and the judge's order. elizabeth: jessica vaughan, thank you for joining us, appreciate it. still to come breaking down the face-to-face meeting between president trump and vladimir putin. >> and blistering conditions for people on the west coast. we'll have the details coming up.

the north koreans said it was, quote, regrettable. rich edson is in tokyo with more. >> reporter: in a few hours, mike pompeo will brief top officials in tokyo. he calls the result of two days of meetings in pyongyang productive. north korea says they're regrettable. secretary of state before leaving pyongyang addressed reporters on the tarmac there. he said the u.s. and north korea made progress on central issues, acknowledged they were complicated and said they agreed to a negotiation structure to resolve them. >> the north koreans confirmed that missile engine testing facility, we talked about what that modalities would look like for that destruction of that facility as well. so progress there as well. and we have laid out a path for further negotiations at the working level so the two teams can get together and continue the discussions.

>> reporter: the secretary then got on his plane, arrived in tokyo and north korea's foreign ministry released a statement on what it calls the regretable attitude and demands. it included a message from kim jong un's office saying the chairman and president trump established trust in singapore last month and he expects that will continue as negotiations progress. the state department says the u.s. and north korea you agreed to meet next week to discuss the return of american service members' remains from the korean war. as for the key issues of how the united states will account for whatever north korea's nuclear stockpile is and its weapons cache and on top of that what type of time line there would be as to when north korea bodies mantel those programs, the secretary said they only discussed those topics, wouldn't give further details about that. liz, back to you. elizabeth: all right, rich, thank you so much. leland: president trump and the vice president met last night at

the president's club in new jersey. at dinner we're told they did discuss the pick for the supreme court. we are now in the final hours before the decision. allison barber traveling with the president ahead of monday's big announcement. hi, allison. >> reporter: that's right, they sat down for dinner last night about 7:30 at the president's golf club in new jersey. the deputy press secretary tells fox news they talked about a lot of things including monday's announcement of a supreme court nominee. we're also told by sources that the white house is working on roll-out packages for four candidates, brett cavenaugh, raymond kethledge and amy coney barrett and thomas hardiman. president trump said his list of 25 candidates is down to four. according to our sources, the president is done with his interviews. he spoke with six judges and spent 45 minutes with kethledge. sources say that was the longest meeting. this morning the president tweeted that a big decision will

soon be made on the next supreme court justice. the official announcement is set for monday around 9:00 p.m. he also used twitter this morning to a attack two major news organizations, tweeting that the new york times and the washington post will be out of business in seven years. it's not entirely clear what sparked that tweet but president trump sent it at about 10:21 a.m., around that time both the times and the washington post had stories on the latest statement from north korea, calling talks with secretary pompeo regrettable. the washington post reported that the deputy tor attorney general, rod rosenstein, was fighting back against criticisms from republicans on capitol hill. the new york times had a story they broke yesterday that president trump's lawyers said mueller needs to prove the president committed a crime if he's going to agree to an interview. on that, fox news has confirmed that part of the new york times' story. the president's personal lawyer, rudy guliani, also told fox news

that he is asking mueller for a, quote, factual basis for the investigation before he and the rest of the legal team will consider letting president trump sit down and have an interview with special council robert mueller. leland. leland: allison barber near the president's club in new jersey, nice to see you. thanks so much. with that, we bring in republican finance ere dan palmer from los angeles. give me a sense of the l politics of the supreme court pick. you're calling and raising money for the mi midterms, senate and house candidates, does having a supreme court pick in the pipeline make it easier? >> well, it certainly motivates a wing of the party. a lot of folks regard the court as possibly the most important part of the trump presidency. we've been on a long, slow slide towards making law from the bench and there's an opportunity to reverse that. so it's very significant. leland: when you say a wing,

depending on who you talk to, it's the one thing uniting the republican party. what's the wing you're talking about? >> certainly the limited government folks are very concerned about the direction of the court over the last 30 or 40 years. leland: you say limited government and what about the social right? >> the social right has their own agenda that is obviously important at the court. the issue of roe v wade is that going to come up. i think the bigger unifying issue is what is the role of the federal government. is it going to be an intrusive monolith it's grown into or will it be pared back. republicans are unified around individual freedom and democrats are nin unified by economic and social justice. it's a cage match between the two competing objectives. leland: the cage match part i

think you've got right. there's a group called demand justice that's now before the pick has been put out pledged $5 million to go after swing state democrats and/or go after swing republicans, namely collins and her coul murkowski e supreme court pick. is there money on the side to support senators to support the president's pick? >> i think there's enough money to communicate with the folks that agree with the republican agenda, who agree with the president. the economics of campaigning have changed a lot. the emphasis is on communicating with the people who agree with you and not so much on the so-called pe persuadeables. i think that's a cost efficient process because we know who they are through micro targeting. leland: somebody who is

certainly has higher aspirations when it comes to republican politics, jim jordan of ohio, remember the freedom caucus, now having to deny allegation that's he knew about sexual abuse while he was a wrestling coach at the university of ohio state a couple of decades ago. here's jim jordan yesterday. then we'll get your reaction. >> conversations in a locker room are a lot different than people coming up and talking about abuse. no one ever reported any abuse to me. if they had, i would have dealt with it. leland: our reporting says that republicans are heading for the hills when it comes to jim jordan on this, if for nothing else than the accusations, whether true or not, really taint him, from a fund raising perspective, a republican supporter perspective. does this raise new questions? >> i know jim jordan. he's a great guy. his integrity is not in question. i question the timing of the

allegations, 20 years after the fact. he's been getting after the fbi and the doj. there's institutional forces that are not happy with the points he's making. leland: whatever the allegations you write it off? zin>> i think it's politically motivated. leland: d so you write it off. >> i have no doubt that when he speaks, he's speaking the truth. leland: we heard an endorsement from the president as well. dan palmer in los angeles, dan, thank you so much. >> thank you, leland. elizabeth: next week president trump heads to belgium and a key summit with nato leaders, ahead of one of the talks with vladimir putin in helsinki, finland. at a rally in montana this week president trump took aim at critics in the news media who questioned whether or not he's prepared. >> will president trump be prepared, you know, president

putin is kgb and this and that. you know what? putin's fine. he's fine. we're all fine. we're people. will i be prepared? totally prepared. i've been preparing for this stuff my whole life. they don't say that. elizabeth: here to way in, angela stint, author of the forthcoming book, putin's world. thank you for joining us. nato allies, are they concerned, will they get comfort ahead of the meeting with putin when they meet with the president at the summit beforehand. >> they are concerned. they know the president has been criticizing nato members for not spending enough and free-riding. some nato members are not spending 2%. some countries are spending more, even a country like germany, they would say they contribute in other ways to nato. there are big discussions about what it means to free ride.

i think there will be tough talk at this summit. elizabeth: talk like what we casaw with the g-7? >> there could be. that's the fear that there could be such tough talk that the president would an leave and goo alliance and leave an alliance that doesn't look united. elizabeth: when you think of the whole reason why nato exists, right, we know that the president will be talking with russian president vladimir putin about the annexation of crimea. what tone needs to be set ahead of the meeting with russia's president, vladimir putin. >> i think it would be better to have a positive tone, one where we are united, where we want to resist further russian aggression in ukraine or anywhere else and not that we're a divided alliance. if we're a divided alliance, that's music to putin's ears. elizabeth: tell me was you feel

are the expectations ahead of the meeting between president trump and vladimir putin. is it getting vindicated just having a meeting with the president. >> yes, this is something that president putin thought from the beginning. he and president trump have praised each other. both leaders want this do be a success. they want to come out of this saying met, we're able to discuss all the difficult issues and we're going to move forward and we're going to leave behind this chapter of tense and negative u.s./russian relations. elizabeth: the list is long. we could make a full screen. ukraine, syria, terrorism, election interference, sanctions placed on russia. that being said, what is the priority? >> i think a priority actually for president trump is the question of syria and also the iranian role in syria, interestingly enough, trying to persuade russia to put more pressure on the iranians not to conduct aggressive activities that threaten israel's security and the security of other countries. i think that is one priority. i think the russians have said

that cry kne crimea isn't goinge up, they don't want to discuss it. another issue where you could have a win-win situation is arms control. the presidents could extend the current strategic arms reduction treaty by five years. that would be a sign they're still committed to nuclear arms control and against nuclear proliferation would be important to the north korean as well. elizabeth: do you expect a lot of posturing or do you expect real progress out of this meeting? you've been studying russia and russian president vladimir putin for a long time. >> i think the trick is when leaders get together with president putin and he promises to do something, the proof of the pudding is in the eating as they say. you have to see whether there is follow-through from the russians, even though we may have the impression at the end of the summit that in fact it was a success. elizabeth: has there ever been follow-through from the russians? >> there sometimes is follow-through.

i think it's very important for putin at the moment to be seen to be meeting and be treated as an equal by the president of the united states. that may motivate him to have follow-through. elizabeth: thank you so much. appreciate it. leland: the fight continues in the western united states against raging fires, hundreds of homes have been destroyed as fires sweep across the state of california from the southern coast all the way to the california, oregon border. three more fires burning across colorado were slowed do you knoe much-needed rain. thousands were evacuated due to the fire. officials report one death near the oregon border. elizabeth: ad adam clause hase on those wildfires and other updates from the u.s. he joins us with today's forecast across the nation.

hi, adam. >> it's been in#kre credible -- incredibly hot. it's cooling off a little bit on the eastern half of the country. out west, they're dealing with heat, 102 currently in phoenix. we're really just continuing to battle this. heat advisories again through portions of southern california, stretching through los angeles, up into nevada. this will last the next couple of days. heat indices will run from 105 to 11 of degrees -- 110 degrees. what are the temperatures like? these are your forecasted highs, 111 in phoenix, getting close to 100 degrees in l.a., 120 in death valley. that continues on sunday, again up to 110 degrees. it cools off just a tiny bit for folks on monday but 106 in phoenix not going to feel a whole lot better, 91 in l.a. this is hurricane beryl. good news with this one, it

kicks off the season but the good news is no threat to the uniteunited states and it is goo weaken as it moves closer to the lesser antilles. elizabeth: thank you so much. appreciate it. leland: the group march for our rights holding several rallies around the united states today in support of the second amendment. that group organizing the events for the protection, they say, of individual rights given to the united states citizens by the constitution. allysia kunez joins us from los angeles where a rally is expected to get under way soon. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this is a student-led organization. they're getting things set up in los angeles. things should be getting underway in about 45 minutes. this is one of 10 events happening today in various cities around the country. these young men and women say they feel as if their voices are not being heard, that they're being drowned out by the

anti-gun movement and that they are here to show that as young people, they too are devastated by mass shootings that we have seen in this nation but the second amendment remains one our founding principles and should remain intact. the show of support for gun rights is in direct response to the march for our lives events in the spring that we saw pop up in cities around the united states in the weak of the wake e in parkland, florida in february. this also a student led organization with powerful support from the anti-gun movement continues with a nationwide tour. it was initially mobileized in part by survivors of the shooting at marjory stoneman douglas high school who have since worked to change gun laws in the united states. separately today, in chicago, there is a gun control demonstration ongoing. participants said they hoped to close the dan ryan expressway and for a while protestedders were able to close this interstate. state police working to keep

things calm. in l.a., we'll give updates on how things go in downtown los angeles with this protest and demonstration. leland: we'll watch it, 1015 in los angeles, 1:15 eastern until the start. elizabeth: tensions are high between the u.s. and china after the two countries imposed new tariffs. we're going to take a look at the fallout. and we're going to be hearing from a michigan cherry farmer who says the crackdown on illegal immigration makes harvest time pretty tough since most americans don't want to work in his fields. >> we will get housewives that want to come out and pick apples and think it's going to be fun and it lasts for two days. then the weather turns nasty and you never see them again. parodontax, the toothpaste that helps prevent bleeding gums. if you spit blood when you brush or floss you may have gum problems and could be on the journey to much worse.

timing doesn't mean anything to them, in terms of understanding the need. we have a certain time we've got to get a job done, particularly when it comes to harvest and cherries, from the time we -- we have about three days from when the cherries -- two to three days from when the cherries are ready that they have to be off the tree and taken care of. we can't wait. it's not like we say we can't have enough workers so we can wait until next week to do the job. that's not a possibility. leland: do you have sympathy for farmers who hire illegal immigrants to do the work? >> absolutely. because they can't find anybody else. the other thing is, most of these people have documentation. and i've got to be very careful when i go to hire somebody. if you give me documentation and i question your documentation i'm questioning your civil rights. i can get in trouble if i question your paperwork. leland: if that worker turns out to be here illegally, do you also get in trouble? >> you can, if you knowingly

hired somebody illegally. so you're kind of caught in the middle. once we found out, after we had been audited at one point in time, when they took all of our i-9s and came back and gave us a list of people that had been working for us for many years and said you can't hire these people, they don't have the proper documentation. if i hire one of those people, i can get in trouble. you have to be careful. leland: you've lost good workers that have been here for 20 years because of the i.c.e. raids. at the same time, the government's not letting you hire enough people to come in and work the farms? >> right. the h2a program has saved our farm. leland: for you, finding a solution is life or death for your business? >> absolutely. absolutely. that's the way it is for most tree fruit farmers that need a large amount of labor. cherries, we shake shar cherrie. we can piece together crews on

smaller farms without a lot of migrants. when it comments to apples -- comes to apples, it's impossible. every apple is hand picked. leland: and you can't find americans to do it. leland.>> on a nice, sunny, sepr afternoon we'll get housewives that pick apples and think it will be fun and it lasts two days. then the weather turns nasty and you never see them again. that's not a cut. because i'll be honest with you, picking apples is hard work. i couldn't make a living picking apples. i bet you that three-quarters of our apple pickers can outpick me in terms of apples. leland: don made an excellent point. he said they advertise their jobs literally around the country before they look outside the country to get workers. they say we can't find anybody to do this. we were out there last week with him. it was about 95 degrees on the farm in the sun. walking along the rows of trees, i got tired.

i'm not sure what that says about me. imagine working in the fields day after day after day, it's tough work. elizabeth: he made a great point at the top of your piece where he said it's so time sensitive. there's two or three days where there's a window where people want fresh fruit at the grocery stores, there's a window he has to capitalize on. he needs the manual labor and he needs it right away. leland: harvest for the cherries in northern michigan which is the cherry capital of america, cherry capital of the world for tart cherries, they need people starting in about two weeks, three weeks. he says look, there obviously has been no fix in d.c. congress is out of town. elizabeth: interesting. great work out there. appreciate it. still to come, our panel will weigh in on president trump's top picks for his second supreme court pick. plus, trade tensions rise between the u.s. and china. it doesn't look like either side is willing to let up, so why do investors seem to be unphased? we'll explain. >> we have countries ripping us

off for years and then when i say well, look, we're going to put tariffs on them because they've been ripping us off, we have trade deficits, they have surpluses, that would be unbelievable. i say we are going to do something about it. a place with 24-hour valet service... and upholstery classes. a place where seniors get the care they need in the comfort of home. home instead senior care.

$34 billion in goods are now subject to new charges at the border when they come from china. the administration says it's already eyeing more goods to slap tariffs on. here to discuss for what this looks like economically and politically, ceo matthew swift. nice to see you. >> good to see you. leland: this from the kato institute, they wrote trump is treating trade policy as though it were a real estate deal, he says, where the goal is to beat your opponent, step on his throat, and humiliate him. fair characterization? >> no, i don't think so. i think that this president is willing to do things that previous administrations have not done, to really think and understand about trade policy today and how historic a lot of these shifts in the negotiating process that the president is obviously started, he's using tools in the tool box that previous presidents haven't necessarily used. so i think that's an unfair characterization because i don't actually think that's what the president is doing.

now, to somebody who is a huge advocate of free trade, i'm very much an advocate of free trade. i'm also an advocate of fair trade. i think that's what the president aims to do here. leland: it's what he says he aims to do in terms of givin gie getting a fair deal. he says we don't have fair trade deals. where is he willing to stop this? what is fair which is yet to be defined? >> i think that's a good point. what is the definition of a good deal according to this president? that's what oftentimes can make the markets feel uncertain about this. that's what the biggest proponents of free trade will oftentimes think and make them feel uncertain about the process. i think the president is willing to go pretty far in some of these negotiations. you have to look at china as one example. you have to look at the rest of the world as another example in terms of the president's strategy. i can certainly understand and sympathize why this makes a lot of people nervous.

it can cause issues with the global economy, there's no question. this is also the best time possible to have this conversation. because in a good economy, that's when we should be going to the table, renegotiating some of our trade agreements, and also having some of those tougher conversations with our friends and our foes. leland: one group of friends the president will have a tough conversation with is the folks at nato next week. take a listen to the president at his rally, then we'll talk about it. >> great. >> germany, which is the biggest country of the e.u., they go out and they make a gas deal, oil and gas from russia, so they want to protect against russia, yet they pay billions of dollars to russia and we're the shmucks that are paying for the whole thing. leland: where did this come down in terms of arguing with germany over better trade deals, arguing with nato countries to pay more? can the president have it all on

this one? >> i'm not sure the president can necessarily have it all but i think that his approach is certainly setting people back. this is the first time that has happened in a long time. so i think that there can be certain advantages to the president's negotiating style. if you read art of the deal, he makes very clear his belief that you start with an extreme and then you go from there. that's exactly what he's doing on trade. that's exactly what he's doing with nato. i don't think american voters are going to complain that he's sitting there that every country that's part of nato needs to pay their fair share. let me give one caveat to that point. these are our friends. they do deserve respect. they are our allies and it's important that we protect that as well. leland: you made a good point in terms of fair share. fair share under nato is defined, you've got to spend 2% of your gdp on military spending and on defense. treat with respect. what are you hearing oversea as the president's heading towards nato, how worried are they and is the issue really about

respect or is the issue about what the president is saying? >> i think everybody's pretty worried. i think this has certainly put everybody on their toes which probably was the president's objective in a lot of these things. if you look at the kind of relationship that president ma macron has sought with president trump, he went out of his way i think to really engage the president as much as possible. but following the g-7 meeting in toronto, it doesn't seem like their relationship is going that well. i think the president's strategy of keeping people on their toes, keeping them guessing, is what he intended and i think it's working. i will say this. i think ambassador hutc hutchin, who i know you have on tomorrow, will have her hands full. this is complicate complicated . leland: the relationship with macron is one thing. the relationship with trudeau is another. we'll watch the handshake

closely. matt, good to see you. >> good to see you. thank you so much. leland: thanks again. elizabeth: ahead, president trump promises to pick a replacement for supreme court justice anthony kennedy very soon. our political panel will weigh in on the president's short list. and man's best friend reporting for duty. what this four-legged friend will do in the marine corps. ♪ and they called it puppy love. ♪

elizabeth: president trump using his weekend in new jersey to weigh who he would like to replace retiring supreme court justice anthony kennedy. he's expected to make an announcement monday, 9:00 p.m. the president's short list is said to include judges kavanaugh, raymond kethledge and

thomas hardiman. here to discuss, ted harvey from the committee to defend the president and amanda litman. i want to start with you, amanda. i think i know what the other side is going to say. what are your predictions for monday and what are you most concerned about? >> i would say it doesn't matter which of these folks that president trump picks. all of them are detrimental to women's health, to health care, to unions. elizabeth: how so. >> all of them are on the list of 25 judges so they're committed to overturning roe v wade. elizabeth: that's been the sticking point. i remember years ago there was, if i'm not mistaken, marik garland didn't have a chance to get voted upon. there was a campaign against his views on gun rights. i'm curious as to what do you have on that? is that what the democrats are going to stick with? >> i think that's going to be the biggest thing is each of these judges are committed to

overturning roe v wade which means they're dangerous for women. if one of them was on the courts and they have a chance, women will die. this is dangerous. elizabeth: ted, i think it's your job to respond. >> i think she's right, if roe v wade stays in place, women will continue to die. we are aborting millions of kids every day, every year, and most of those, half of those are females. and i find roe v wade and most conservatives find roe v wade to be as repugnant and core ro corrosive to our country as -- >> many people believe roe v wade should be upheld. >> conservatives have been working for decades to elect conservatives like donald trump to be able to put people in place that will be conservative constitutionalists when it comes to interpreting law. >> conserves -- conservatives

have been working to elect conservatives. >> the american people voted. that's why we have a republican house and republican senate and a republican president. and the american people have spoken and that's why the president has had the ability to appoint two conservative judges. elizabeth: i get what you're saying. you're saying there's consequences in elections. we're going to see this roll-outs ahead of the midterm elections and is this about the larger role of government? >> i think so. >> what is the role of government with the constitution in play and the interpretation of the constitution. elizabeth: amanda, can you respond? >> i think conservatives have done an incredible job of electing folks at state and local levels for decades. over the course of decades, maybe we will fix it. we have a responsibility to make sure we're electing democrats to state and local government to protect roe v wade, to protect

the right to vote where the supreme court and the res congress won't. elizabeth: i want you to respond to that. >> what roe v wade has given us here in the state of colorado is you have the ability to abort at late term. the radicals on the left think it's okay to murder 7-pound babies before their born in the name of roe v wade. we want to make sure there's constraints on roe v wade. i think the american people would agree on that. elizabeth: we talk about replacing kennedy and, yes, he was a very conservative judge. that being said, there were other issues that he decided where he was really the swing vote. i'm curious as to what other issues, and ted i'll start with you. sthere's so much focus on roe v wade. there will be other issues upcoming. there will be other issues on the docket aside from roe v wade. >> i think what we saw two weeks ago when kennedy ruled and

overturned precedent in the jonos ruling -- janos ruling that said unions couldn't take money out of public sector union pay or union members, that was a huge turning point. when they upheld religious freedom with the cake baker here in colorado, that was a huge win for freedom in the united states. i think that's what we want, as conservatives, is a justice that will uphold the constitution, not just pursue a liberal ideology which is what the courts would have been had hillary clinton won the presidency. elizabeth: i'll let you have the next word. >> there's not unreasonable chance that's the supreme court justice will decide whether the president can be indicted and whether the president can pardon himself. i want them to be independent of the executive. i hope we have someone that is willing to stand up. elizabeth: thank you for joining us. leland: still to come, english

leland: listen to the secretary of state, it sounds like he made major progress in north korea while he was there the past couple of days in getting the regime to give up its nuclear weapons. the north, they have a little different view. take a look, on the right, the official state department's tweet, praising progress on the meeting. on the left, a quote from north korean officials who called the meeting regrettable. joining us now is gordon chang, author of nuclear showdown, north korea takes on the world. good to see you. the north had other nice things to say. they say the united states had robber or gangster-like intentions in this meeting and seemed quite surprised that secretary pompeo wanted them to give up their nuclear weapons, which shockingly i thought they

already agreed to, at least the president said they did. can you translate all this for us. >> when the north koreans in the joint statement on june 12th said they wanted to go toward the complete denuclearization of the korean peninsula, they not only talked about them giving up weapon, they felt the u.s. should give up its nukes as well. that's been a consistent position over the course of decades. what we have right now is an impasse. north korea has very provocative language. i think it's time for president trump to turn back the clock and say we're not going to continue with the negotiations if you continue with this very belligerent language. leland: it's provocative and belligerent language and provocative and belligerent actions. the north koreans are continue to enrich uranium and blu pluto, continuing to work on their missile program, continuing to work on their nuclear program.

this is free time for them. >> yes. it undercuts president trump's assumption that kim jong un made a strategic decision do give up nuclear weapons. i think president trump needs to pivot. he needs to go back to the maximum pressure campaign that was so successful through the end of may. he gave that up in june and what we're seeing right now is north korea thinking they can get away with all sorts of things, including ramping up their production of missile material and continuing on with their production of parts for ballistic missiles. leland: we heard in the past that the president always said i'm willing to walk away, i'm willing to walk away. is it time now to walk away? >> absolutely. he did that may 24th after a particularly provocative stream of north korean propaganda and within hours the north koreans became conciliatory. we need to do that again. leland: in terms of consistent sill tri, we've always --

conciliatory, we've sometimes heard conciliatory language from the north koreans. they have yet to take conciliatory actions that are concrete, verifyable, i reversal steps towards denuclearization. >> the one thing that president trump has done is he's given them an incentive to stall by going back and reducing the sanctions on north korea in effect and also suspending the joint military exercises with south korea, which is something that north korea has always wanted. and so right now we're at a point where we have told the north koreans essentially, look, we'll give you all the time you want and because right now we've given all that relief, time is on north korea's side. it's not on ours anymore. leland: real quick on this, lucas tomlinson from the pentagon reported that the u.s.s.mustin and u.s.s. benfold just went through the straight of taiwan. message to north korea in addition to china or just to china. >> > i think it's probably just to

china. china takes a position a that we can't send our war ships through the taiwan strait. that's not their official view. that's what they tell us. we're saying look, we don't care, we're going to defend taiwan. this is going to be good on north korea too. it shows we're not afraid of the chinese. i think kim jong un has a feeling that maybe we're a bit worried about beijing. we need do disabuse him of that notion. leland: certainly the timing is doubtfully coincidental. gordon chang in new york. thanks so much. good to see you. >> thank you. leland: liz? elizabeth: after the break, the semifinals are almost all set at the 2018 world cup. we'll have an update on the latest matches in russia. stay with us. still a chance here. it's willingham, edge of the box, willingham shoots... goooooooaaaaaaaallllllll! that...was...magic. willingham tucks it in and puts the championship to bed.
