police having fun with it saying there is no reports of lime or salt stolen either. jillian: interesting. took the good stuff. todd: thank you for letting me hang out with you this week. cheers. "fox & friends" starts right now. >> we are fixing walls all over the water. we are going to start to get very nasty over of the walls. >> search for mollie tibbets. shirt found near the pig farm that investigators have been combing through. >> we believe mollie is still alive. if someone has abducted her, we are pleading with you to please release her. >> hundreds of protesters take to the streets of chicago. demonstrators sending a loud and clear message to democratic mayor rahm emanuel. >> got some good things but i think if he don't step up and come to the people where the crime is. >> we are just hours away from the july jobs report. this is a very robust job market. people with some experience.

there's opportunities to switch jobs and get raises. this is good news. >> we are going to keep on winning. we are going to win so much perhaps some of you but not all will get tired of winning. anybody going to get tired of winning? >> no. steve: speaking of winning you are watching the number one cable news for i forget the month. listening to the music from for king and country. it's all-american concert series today. let's enjoy the show. ainsley: such a great group. they have this song called shoulders. you should download it right now. if you are going through a hard time, play that song and it will make you feel great and inspire you. i think they are a christian band, aren't they?

steve: yes, they are. even if you are not going through a hard time. ainsley: everyone goes through something at some point. even if you are not in a good mood. brian: if you are not going through a hard time maybe something bad will happen and give you a reason to listen. think on the sunny side. try to make things sunny. brian: okay. ainsley: prepare you for the bad things that are going to happen today. brian: don't get down on yourself if nothing bad happens. ainsley: it's friday. steve: coming up in two hours and 30 minutes the jobs numbers are going to come out. they are expecting a good one. but, there is a number that has not been getting a lot of attention. keep in mind, this white house generally gets, what, 91, 92% negative coverage from the mainstream media, and when you look at this new poll from rasmussen, you wonder how is his number that high given so much bad publicity. brian: rasmussen tends to be a friendly pool they are tracking and phone calls. it shows a trend.

it shows a trend because when the "wall street journal" nbc poll says 45%. other major polls show going up. you wonder if most of the press is negative and all these stories of these other channels, 80 to 90% are negative stories and then people talking about negative stories. you wonder if the media is being bypassed because the president has the social media leapfrog to go right to them and other people see the results in their paycheck, their home, their house. ainsley: that's what the president said yesterday when he was in pennsylvania. he was there stumping for representative lowe beretta to wants to be a senator there. steve: lou. ainsley: they compared august 152016 to august 10th 2000 you will. -- steve: president obama got much more sympathetic news

coverage. the news media are very critical on him. brian: he is critical on them. steve: the way he was pointing out the fake news in the back of the room in pennsylvania that says something. nonetheless, you mention lou barletta, he is running for the senate seat currently held by casey in pennsylvania. i will tell you what, if you are going to have somebody come um and speak on your behalf and sing your praises, you want lou barletta. listen to this ad he did for what president trump has accomplished so far. >> the economy is soaring under president trump's economy. it is soaring. the markets. the market is up over 20%. unemployment is at 4%. black unemployment is at an all-time low. hispanic unemployment all-time low. women's unemployment all-time low. small business all-time high. consumer confidence all-time high. more jobs now than people who are unemployed.

isis is practically gone. north korea is at the table. the wall is being built. why would we ever stop that? [cheers and applause] we're not tired of winning, mr. president. we're not tired of winning. steve: the president said you know what? i can leave. ainsley: not tired of winning because i need a win. brian: he asked lou to run. listen can you do. i proved to everyone i can win pennsylvania. karl rove said listen these rallies are great for raising awareness. thieves candidates have to do it on their own. they have to sell their story. this is a start. but, basically, the president can come in and work. he says i'm going to work six days a week and campaign to make sure we keep the house to our advantage and the senate. distinguish themselves. seeing lou barletta yesterday, it seems as though he has the energy and aptitude but also the podium presence to excel. but they have to do it on their own.

ainsley: the president has been doing a lot of the these rallies u three of them this week alone. as we get closer important. worried about the house, worried about keeping seats in the senate. steve: sure. we have seen when the president of the united states endorses you, your numbers go up. the primary, let's see what they do in the general. we have got stu varney going to be dropping by at 8:30 this morning to talk all about the jobs numbers. evidence will do instants analysis right here on "fox & friends." brian: so the president has been talking a lot about immigration. i don't know if you have heard. that's not only is he not running from that even though the controversy as ivanka trump said yesterday, the low point of the administration was the separation of the families. the president does think that the american people care about what's happening at the border. he does hope to get 5 billion more dollars to bolster the border. he sells he is going to get it from the house. hopefully he will get it from the senate. one thing he did say if he wants something done, say he doesn't want it done to the inverse because democrats just oppose everything he does.

steve: you mean reverse psychology? brian: right. steve: watch this. >> we're fighting a war. and we are fighting a war on drugs. they are bringing in drugs. they're bringing in lots of bad people. and we're going to start to get very nasty over the wall. you know, the democrats, anything i want, they want to oppose. you know, i just figured out how to do the wall i will say i don't want to build a wall and they will insist on building it. [laughter] i just figured that out right now. we will be taking some very tough actions. we need more republicans but they are friends of mine they say sir, we are better off until wait until after. it's better before. we are either getting it or we are closing down government. we need border security. steve: the president was very clear about that as he has been. that's one of the issues that got him -- the keys th to the 747. he said we need more like-minded republicans. keep in mind there are a lot of republicans that don't want the wall in washington, d.c. they have jobs. they have hatched out a deal, mitch and paul the

president, last week, where the president would not force a shutdown before the election. they are going to go ahead and they are going to fund as many programs in the government as they can before the election. and then they will pass a little patch that's going to have the homeland security money. that's the stuff that's really up for debate right now that would get the democrats blood pressure up high because that is where the 5 billion or 20 billion would come from to build the wall. brian: the strategy is this. the president goes my numbers are really good on the economy. republicans could feel good about running about that. and then you have got brett kavanaugh who wants to be the next supreme court justice and they want that. the president session listen, i don't want really want -- as much as i want the border security. i don't think we want to distract from the big two big trophies that i have leading up to november. ainsley: you mentioned jobs. unemployment has fallen, 18 year low. record number of job openings. the hourly rate rose at 2.7% yearly rate. that's unbelievable. that's what people are saying that they care about

most. steve: that's right. i'm surprised lou barletta didn't work that into his little advertisement. anyway. we have a busy friday. thank you very much for joining us. we have lots more coming up regarding the breaking news of the day. we have the big thing. we have the barbecue. we have singers and we have got some headlines. jillian: that's right. we are following a number of stories this morning. fox news alert right now. five year veteran of the colorado springs police force is fighting for his life after being shot in the head. the suspect is due in court this morning. officer jim responding to a call when a suspect opened fire. he also was shot but will be okay. he was already out on bond for a weapons charge. the fbi issuing an amber alert for a girl who may have been abducted. investigators safe jing jing was taking at reagan international airport in washington, d.c. by this woman that you see on your screen in the surveillance video. the 12-year-old from china was traveling with a group

shortly. ainsley: bittersweet. glad all those materials are at home. you see them and you know what those men and women went through. steve: the united states has been fighting for those remains and there are still many more to go. ainsley: 12 minutes after the top of the hour, brand new clue search for missing mollie tibbets. digging through a pig farm as mollie's heart breaking mother is speaking out. live with that next u. steve: another democrat wants to endorse ice. this one just got endorlsed by president obama. that story coming up. ur adult children are here. so, we save by using tide. which means we use less. three generations of clothes cleaned in one wash.

interview mollie's mother. take a listen. >> i was quietly sitting in the grinnell public library and approximately 5:15 my youngest son scott called me and said mollie didn't go to work today. at that moment adrenaline shot through my body i thought something is terribly wrong. law enforcement has been essential, crucial. i can't even find the words to say what has happened. >> can you just tell us who is mollie? tell us something about mollie. >> she was vivacious. she loved life. was passionate. she was not afraid. >> how are you holding up? >> through some kind of internal strength that is just there. the other night i walked outside to a star lit sky and i saw a shooting star and i was like somehow, somewhere, she is remaining with me.

to get his reaction to the media vs. the administration if the press were respectful but tough. if the pretty objective and not partisan they would be treated with respect. their problem isn't donald trump. the problem is the american people, over 60 million of us who voted for donald trump they know what they are doing. we know what they are doing. brian: what is it about trump that stallworth regular conservatives numbers are high. >> they are irrelevant. what we are doing in this country now is very troublesome to me. this attempt to sabotage this president this coup taking place make no mistake it is. the democrats want the president out by hook or crook. i see this nation like this right now. i see the status progressives upset. they didn't control the left's next election. they thought they would get four more years of obama through hillary. and they thought they would

control the executive branch for the next 30 or 40 years. they failed and they have been resistant ever since. they have been on stucketting ever since. if you don't see that as a conservative you are blind. if you don't see many of the good things this president is doing as a conservative, you are also blind. brian: paul manafort had a trial. everyone should understanding unrelated to anything to do with donald trump he has a trial. the way this started with the 78-year-old judge coming out stop rolling your eyes. stop using the term oligarch. it's not a crime to be rich. the tone he is setting. i'm wondering how nervous mueller should be his first high profile case could blow up in his face. >> if you have -- if you think you have manafort on tax evasion, on conspiracy for tax evasion. on branch fraud, on embezzlement and all the rest of it, why do you have to talk about the rich. why do you have to take pictures of his suits? the reason is. this he thinks this jury is stupid. what he wants to do is pile on. he wants them to be jealous.

he wants them to go after guys in the top 1%. this is exactly what a prosecutor shouldn't do. this prosecutor mueller and his banged of merry liberal democrats have been way over the top in the manafort case. here's the bottom line man ford case has nothing to do with trump. nothing to do with trump world. nothing to do with the campaign u nothing to do with anything that a regular united states attorney couldn't handle which is an abomination. >> if you are part of donald trump's legal team, does mark levin say sit down, keep negotiating, walk away? >> >> well, in my little dream world if i were leading the trump legal team and gave me the mind to do what i wanted to i do would walk in to mr. mueller and say let me tell you something, buddy. you have been violating the constitution for a year and a half. you know what the rules are at the department of justice and the two memos that they have. you can't indict a sitting president. we know you are trying to set up our president. you are trying to take down one branch of the federal government in violation of the constitution.

♪ don't you ever leave me ♪ don't you ever go. ♪ i know how it goes ♪ even when you are angry ♪ don't you ever leave me ♪ don't leave me alone. ainsley: moms are parenting in the age of fear. that's according to a new op-ed that says, quote: we now live in a country where it is seen as abnormal or even criminal for children to be away from direct adult supervision for even a second. the author is kim brooks and she shares her own personal story of a legal fallout after leaving her 4-year-old child unattended in a car on a cool, cloudy day in march while she ran in to a store for a quicker rand. she was soon then, after notified that there was a warrant out for her arrest. we are getting reaction from our panel of moms. evangeline gomez is in the back on the top left, an attorney specializing in family and matrimonial law.

i will start with you. >> i think it's extreme. as some point as a parent, you have to rely on common sense. and if you see your child under a are just stepping a few steps away. i mean, how many of us have gone to drop mail in a mailbox and park the car. get out. the child is in there and you run right back to your car. this isn't a situation where it was 90 degrees, she was leaving her child out for a lock period oalong period of ti. instead of someone reporting and calling the police, why don't you just look after the child or ask the mother hey, do you need my help? i can spot you while you go on in and run yourer rand a will be here. weave need to have more communication that way instead of let's report this to the authorities. >> cathy barnett on the front row radio show host and a mother. cathy, you bring your children to work. >> yes. ainsley: you are a great mother. your children are so well-mannered and well behaved. >> thank you. >> this is a fear of yours.

big brother is watching. this is a person watching this mother. recorded the license plate. called the cops. and then the coming. she is in virginia visiting her parents. she lands in chicago and they say we need to talk to you there is a warrant out for your arrest. >> i posed this question to a group of my fellow home schooling mommas yesterday. and there were no clear answers from them. because i think we all recognize that parenting can be exhausting sometimes. sometimes we don't want to bundle all five kids up and rush over just to grab something out of the store real quickly. and, yet, at the same time, i think we can walk and chew gum at the same time on their. as a society, we have a vested interest in making sure we have certain societal norms, right, that allows to us create an environment that allows us to thrive in raising our children. no one wants to see a bunch of 4-year-olds walking up and down the street unattended. there is a reason why we

don't allow 4-year-olds or older to enter into some binding contracts or to get married or to drink, because we recognize that they are not ready for to deal with the consequences of their choices. and likewise, for 4-year-old sitting in a car unattended. can we really trust that if a stranger danger approaches them that they would have the wherewithal to know that they're being manipulated to know that they shouldn't go. i think it's a little bit of both and take that into consideration. ainsley: erin is sitting behind you and she wrote a book called being there why prioritizing motherhood in the first three years matters. erica, my child is two and a half. i read that title. my child is two and a half. i only have a few more months. when we were bureauing up, our parents did. this they wrengt in the grocery store. mom, we don't want to go in. we want to do our homework. three kids. roll the windows down a little bit. lock the doors, don't open the door for strangers.

we were all fine. i know things have changed. you wrote the book. what are the rules now? this mom said she was trying to avoid her child having what we are all very aware of, the meltdown. >> the problem we don't know the rules. we don't want to shame rules. most people don't know it's illegal to leave a child in a car unattended. ainsley: it's actually not in that state of virginia. >> we need to know what the rules are so we don't blame mothers. i'm of two minds about it children do need adult supervision. and they don't just need adult supervision for environmental dangers. for a stranger coming up to the car or the heat which is sort of environmental. they need protection in other ways. meaning when you leave a child alone who is 4, they are frightened. so mothers are buffers to stress as i talk about in my book we deal with things like impulse control or poor judgment. these are things we help to regulate as mothers. when we leave a child

unattended, particularly a very young child, we are not regulating those emotions that they have. ainsley: darby sitting next to you is a child and adolescent therapist. what would you tell moms that come in and sit on your sofa. >> i would tend to agree with erika, while we don't want to shame any mom. it's irresponsible to leave a 4-year-old alone in a car. a 4-year-old doesn't have the cognitive ability to say, to make a sound decision and they are very much nut moment. so they could just get up and leave. they could do whatever. they are not really thinking about that we don't need to shame her. i think, i wish the mom had said you know what? i did kind of a dumb thing because we all do that i don't think we need to go as far as legality of how we treat people. but, you do need supervision. and the way to build a resilient kid is to say okay, i know you don't love to do errands but we have got to do it. i don't love doing them either. let's come back quickly. ainsley: can we bribe them get you a prize? probably not allowed to do

that, right? two i want to talk to quickly founder of accessories expert and mother of two. what did you think when you read this op-ed? >> thank you so much for having me. ainsley: you are welcome. >> as somebody who shares her life with such a big audience i'm used to getting backlash and judgment. you feed your kids too much sugar. you are using the wrong car seat. i have realized that there is no winning when it comes to motherhood and other people's opinions. so, it's about looking in the mirror and asking yourself am i making a choice that i feel is safest for my child and not thinking so much about what other people are going to think. and, of course, there are societal norms that we have to subscribe to. i know my parents put me on an airplane by myself when i was 5 to go visit my bab sitter to texas to indiana. i don't think i would ever put my 5-year-old child on a plane by herself although she would definitely be fine

and even ask me why she can't go visit her grandparents by herself. it's just not done today. so, i think it's a question of maybe what has happened in the past 25, 30 years that has made us change and become so much more stringent with parenting. ainsley: right. right. i want to get to you dr. havese. neuropsychologist. >> thank you for having me. ainsley: where do you draw the line. times have changed but at the same time you wants to give your children freedom and autonomy. >> i'm single mom of twins who are 3 years old. i think parent shaming has become a national past time. if you are not worried your doctor or teacher or neighbor or school mates. parents judging you, you are worried about social media judging you. so i think parents are awfully aware of this constants, you know, eye on them. but i think that, you know,

you should never leave your child unattended in a public situation. but i also think that parents don't always know the rules. that's a wi big support of it. two prong thing. parents should be made more aware of what the lays are in their state. education in schools, pediatrician offices. postings everywhere. you don't hear about what the laws are. i didn't know what the law was in virginia. ainsley: laws for kids in your state? >> there should be something. on the flip side there should be more education on the law enforcement and child protective side. treating a good parent like a criminal, i think, is actually harmful and counter productive. ainsley: that's what she said she felt so embarrassed and ashamed: all right, ladies, we will have you back another panel towards the end of the show. stick around. happy friday to awful you. thank you for your perspective. ainsley: we will hand it over to jillian now. jillian: good morning, ainsley. do you want food stamps? get a job.

i see the status progressives who are upset. they didn't control the left next election. they thought they would get four more years of obama through hillary and thought they would control the executive branch for the next 30 or 40 years and run the tables with their agenda and they failed. and they have been resistant ever since. they have been obstructing ever since. and if you don't see that as a conservative, then you are blind. and if you don't see many of the good things this president is doing as a conservative, you are also blind. brian: mark levin i don't think he looked at that stage and said i want donald trump as a huge impactful conservative voice he, sean and rush just can really control the dialogue. he watched to see who emerged. and when trump emerged he looked, he listened and he evaluated. is he pretty much on board evident he is wondering why victor davis is hanson.

-- steve: a number of high profile republicans say we want immigration and build the wall. behind the scenes they say that's not a good idea. poor investment. the president last night big rally in wicks burry, pennsylvania. he made it very clear. is he out to get more republicans. that would help him in the senate and in the congress as well. but, he is willing to use immigration as a campaign issue. people in that room were fired up about it. take a poll, probably 99% want a wall built. but, nonetheless, the president said you know, they have talked me in to waiting. i'm not going to shut down the government over it before the mid terms but he could. >> we're fighting a war. and we are fighting a war on drugs. they are bringing in drugs. they are bringing in lots of bad people. we are going to start to get very nasty over the wall. the democrats, anything i want, they want to oppose.

you know, i just figured out how to do the wall. i sal i don't want to build a wall and they will insist on building it. [laughter] we will be taking some very tough action. we need more republicans but friends of mine they say president, you know, and some of them are really tough guys and they said, sir, we are better off if we wait until after. i say it's better before. we are either getting it or we are closing down government. we need border security. steve: that's why it's going to be an issue. ainsley: i think the people agree with him. a lot of people went to vote for that very issue. for the economy. he is not a typical politician. he said he wanted to drain the swamp. the swamp is not allowing him to build that wall. brian: people want to know the future of the democratic party. is it socialist? is it abolish ice like gillibrand wants. this candidate from new york? former president obama released a list of 80 plus candidates that he is going to support. one of which anti-ice, abolish ice candidate.

steve: that's right. debra haaland. she is from new mexico. there is her image right there. she did email a quote to us regarding this. she said i have called for abolishing ice because it's not living up to its mission. the violence and terror ice promotes must stop. we need to hold this out of control agency accountable. ainsley: not holding up to its mission they are doing what the law says. if you don't like what they are doing change the law. it's up to washington. steve: up to corning indeed. brian: a number of socialists in their 20's suspect 280%. you have the abolish ice crowd from some very prominent democrats. and you have even eric holder comes out and says, excuse me, jeh johnson came out a couple weeks ago and says you don't abolish ice. former homeland security secretary under president obama. we need ice. for former president obama to be part of that anti-ice

movement, i can't believe that someone briefed him on that and he still got behind this candidate. steve: former president put out this list of a couple of dozen names cortez not on the list. she is being promoted as the future of the democratic party. that's kind of curious. brian: company line is i only put people on the list in tough races. she will waltz right to that spot that joe crowley had. ainsley: hand it over to jillian who has headlines for us. jillian: good friday morning and following a story captivate you had the nation. brand new information, a new clue in the desperate search for missing college student mollie tibbets. combing through a pig farm in iowa after a red shirt was reportedly found nearby. that's the same color shirt that mollie wears to work. the fbi questioned the owner of the farm who has a history of stalking. earlier we spoke to former homicide detective ted williams who is in iowa

achings ainsley new democratic darling alexandria ocasio-cortez's primary victory has been seen as a revolution in american politics but, before cortez there was another political revolution from president donald trump. in a new op-ed our next guest says there are some similarities between the two, believe it or not, like being to the left of their parties. one major difference trump's nationalism is and sense of fraternity with all americans. here to explain this is frank buckley. he also is the author of the new book "the republican workers' party" thank you for being with us. >> thank you for having me. ainsley: you are welcome. i remember when bernie sanders said he was a socialist everyone was just -- does he wonder what socialism is? now have you dozens of them running on this ticket. >> ocasio-cortez will disappear in 15 seconds. she is not bright enough. the point i was making was -- well, they are not the same people but both are to the left of their parties

and the key to all of that for trump is nationalism trump is a nationalist. that's how you understand his wall. he wants to make a distinction between americans and non-americans. what that means is got to take what you from people who aren't americans to americans. that will put him to the libertarian right. other people want to talk about getting rid of entitlements. that wasn't trump. so, you know, trump's nationalism say something about healthcare and the like, but the difference between him and ocasio-cortez he actually cares about americans. the democrats used to be like that. way back when they were the honorable people tipp o'neal and so on. then they invested in identity politics. that's by way of saying we really don't like about half of you americans, right? i mean, it was sort of a

reverse sally fields. they don't like us, they really don't like us. ainsley: frank, what's wrong with that? what's wrong with him because they will make you feel guilty with supporting him. what's wrong with loving america? >> exactly right. well,s that the point. that's the dividing line of the identity politics of left and donald trump. you look at what trump is saying, he does not distinguish between different types of people between races or anything like that. is he solidly pro-american all the way through that's how you understand his idea about healthcare. he said i want row peel it and replace iting with beautiful. and then congress got in the way. >> frank, thank you so much for being with us great op-ed. >> thank you. ainsley: you are welcome. the economy is booming under president trump. our next guest says is he not worried it will help democrats. really? stick around for that plus, for king and country, hanging out in the kissinger corner.

here to weigh in strategist advising missouri attorney general josh howie's campaign for senate gail and antwon seawright a democratic strategist and founder and ceo of blueprint strategy. good morning to both of you. >> good morning. >> good morning. steve: gail, let's start with you up in boston today. this is good news for republicans and you think that's going to help you in the mid terms. >> yeah. this is good news for republicans. it's great news for president trump. it gives him a really good story to tell. the g rpsd numbers from last friday combined with a series of good jobs numbers that we have seen over the last couple of months and maybe another one today it, gives the president an opportunity to take his message on the road and go campaign just like we saw last night in pennsylvania. go campaign in these competitive states in districts and talk about these positive economic achievements. steve: okay. >> it's not just good for the president. it's also good for these republicans running in these competitive states and districts. especially those republicans who are running against

democrats who are opposed to these positive economic accomplishments like the tax cuts. steve: sure. antwon, you know, i can't tell you how many ads i have heard about where nancy pelosi is in the ad and she is talking about the thousands of dollars that the family is going to wind up through the years through this tax cut as crumbs. that's not helpful. >> you know, of course that's what the republican also use as a distraction away from their failures over the past several months. especially during this presidency. the bottom line is while the economy is good for some. it's not add as good for others. ask the worker bmw factory no long have jobs because of tariffs by this president. farmers who now will receive a bailout for no fault of their own because of this president and his reckless policies implemented in this country. just because g.d.p. numbers are high, that does not translate or trickle down to middle class working families. you made a reference, i think, steve, to the tax scam that was passed several

months. steve: tax scam? [laughter] >> what we do know is majority of americans by many polls i have seen that middle class families have not benefited from the tax scam. and while corporations were handing out one-time bonuses wages were stag nantz in a lot of places and in fact companies laying off at the same time. steve: we were talking a little earlier at the top of the program about how wages are growing slowly, just a little south of 3% they would like a higher number. but, gail, when you look at the jobs number, when comes out in an hour. one of the things we have been talking about is the fact that right now because the economy is, according to the administration, booming, there are actually more jobs than there are people to take them. so, if you want a job, it's out there for you. >> yeah. you know, i think the democrats have to be savvy enough to know two things. number one, they are not going to say anything good or positive about the president's accomplishments when it comes to the economy because they know that there they are going to be creeing ground on one of the most

important issues to voters and that's the economy. number two they can't say anything derogatory because voters in these states are actually feeling the economic progress. this message of a powerful economy is powerfully unifying and really good for republicans. >> gail, i would just tell you this. 4.1 g.d.p. that we saw a few days ago from the president, that ranks fifth highest as obama presidency. keep in mind we had 5.1% g.d.p. during the obama presidency. but the economy would not be the only issue on the ballot. what america knows that we are in a battle for america's soul and what most americans know we can't afford to lose. there will be things on the ballot that may not be measured from a policy standpoint like how do we protect our democracy? how do we make sure our children can effectively compete in ever changing global society simple things like affordable housing. access to this thing called the american experiment. in a lot of cases this president and this congress have failed the american people. steve: okay ladies and

gentlemen, i think we have just seen a preview of the campaign for mid terms 2018. we thank you both for joining us live u. >> thank you. >> thank you. steve: all right. 7:30 here in new york city. now that jobs number comes out one hour from right now. meanwhile a police officer now fighting for his life after being shot in the head. the latest in the attack on war -- the latest attack on the war on cops coming up. how do you end the violence? that's a big question. and the show last man standing perhaps booted over its conservative voice but tim allen is coming back. and his character will not be silenced. he is still standing ♪ i'm still standing ♪ after all this time ♪ picking up the pieces of my life ♪ without you on my mind ♪ i'm still standing ♪

county police commissioner who has been studying patrick rider. commissioner, again, we are talking about this. any common denominator from colorado to california to new york that transcends all of these incidents? >> the biggest problem that we see is the violence, that's the common denominator. we are the face of those that want to act out. it's an easy target and they have come after law enforcement around the country. brian: why now? >> 2016 we had one of the highest records for line of duty shootings against police officers. i think it was 67. we're on pace now to get to that number and break it hopefully we don't get there. it's just the rhetoric that goes on in social media. and, you know, again, we become that easy target to take it out against. brian: do you think there is a hesitancy among officers to take action because they don't want to be the next -- they don't want to be on trial themselves. they don't want to be the cause of any type of riot we saw in ferguson or other places? >> law enforcement gets seven month academy.

after seven months 80 hours on deescalation. we teach them to deescalate and not use the deadly physical force. use the taser before you use the gun. those officers are trained and then professionals, they are not reluck tantaros to use that force but they always in the back of their mind they think of their families. they think of their kids at home that if they are that cop that gets dragged into the court next. and you see what the outcite from the public is. brian: how does it change? how can you change quickly because you certainly have somebody from the oval office who is in support of law enforcement. so you can't say well, we are getting the wrong message from the top. >> no, we need to keep the dialogue alive. we need to speak to our communities. we need to speak to our community leaders to bring the rhetoric down. again, it becomes an easy target for those that want to act out. we're the ones that go out -- we are delivering babies, we are being the psychologist. we're the marriage counselor. we do a lot of different functions as a cop.

to be targeted against the public, the public that we're entrusted to protect and serve, it's kind of disheartening. brian: do you need the death penalty for shooting and killing an officer? would that be the deterrent? >> without a doubt the deterrent should be the fact that if you shoot and kill the officer there should be a death penalty for that. brian: seems overall a fearlessness to doing it so did i it and what? it's becoming too wrote for people to act out like. this we see a lot of violence coming from our gang members. a lot of violence from the lone wolves that want to act out. it's got to stop and bring the rhetoric down. we have got to have the conversation. we have got to keep the dialogue alive. brian: i guess officers have to start being looked up to on a massive schedule the way they used to be and that would certainly help. >> we deserving the respect. we give the respect we deserve the respect back. brian: commissioner good to see you. >> thank you very much. mollie tibbets family not giving up hope as they

illegals says she doesn't think that anybody is illegal which is so funny to me. i wish if people were to go to mexico illegally they don't treat their immigrants as well as we treat them in america. mainstream media has totally blown these people's minds. steve: the way this story has evolved they announced out in san francisco area that if you live in the country, you can be in the country legally or illegally. as long as you are a resident of the san francisco area, you can be able to register to vote in local elections and the theory is you are paying in local taxes, but at the same time, they should have the ability to weigh in on their children's education because it's for school board and things like that. what do you think of that? >> yeah. it's still unconstitutional, you know, to be able to have a legal -- to be able to vote in this country. in terms of paying into a lot of federal taxes, they just haven't done that. they use public services as

well. ainsley: do you think a lot of illegals will actually vote? do they have to sign up? do they have to sign their name and addresses and where does that information go? i guess it doesn't go to ice because sanctuary state. are they worried about that? do they fear putting all that pen to paper and giving out their personal information? part-time in san francisco are not afraid at all. california has become a sanctuary state for illegals to go. in california half of the illegal immigrants are there. i don't think people are worried about that at all. steve: right now this only impacts people in the san francisco area for local elections. it does not involve federal elections and that would be against the law. so, is your worry that if they allow people to vote local loy eventually it would be federally? >> >> yes. i think it starts out small and then it goes up. it's a slippery slope. you know, you let one thing happen and then it keeps on going from there. steve: they would have to change the law then.

ainsley: what's the next video? do you have another one lined up? >> the next one we are working on is actually going to santa barbara and talking to the people about the plastic straw ban here in california as well. government overreach. steve: that's going on here. people would like to keep the plastic straw. just saying. the paper one dissolves. >> i know they chap my lips. steve: okay. good to know will witt from prager university. ainsley: president trump says he is going to shut down the president to get his border wall. steve: geraldo rivera says the president is absolutely correct. geraldo joins us next. ♪ ♪ all you can eat is back, baby. applebee's.

listen. >> we're fighting a war, we're fighting a war on drugs. they're bringing in drugs. the everything i want they want to oppose. i figured out how to do the wall. i say i don't want to build the wall, and they will insist on building it. [cheering] i just figured that out right now. so we're going to be taking some very tough actions. we need more republicans but they are trends of mine, they say, president, you know, some of them are really tough guys, they said, sir, we're better off if we wait after. better before. we're either getting it or we're closing down government. we need border security. brian: that is the president last night talking about immigration, getting a huge round of applause. his numbers, hispanic support has grown for this president.

usually that is the third rail, people misinterpret what immigration enforcement is. >> let me take a bigger approach to that. president is correct anything he proposes opposed by the democrats. even the wall. even the wall the most incendiary of the president's proposals. in parentheses, he undermined his position with separation of families six weeks ago. that really hurt the president's moral high ground on the issue of undocumented immigrants. the bigger picture is, that anything the president is for, the democrats are against. that is true. the wall is a classic example. i know for a fact that schumer, the minority leader of the senate, luis gutierrez, most articulate fiery, latino congressman, will be retiring. both said in exchange for the dreamers, going back to the dreamers being given some kind of a normalization and

protection, that the $25 billion to build the president's wall would be forthcoming. it would be a compromise. both sides not really happy with it, but compromises are by their very nature painful to both sides. what happened though going forward i think the positions have hardened. now the president is very frustrated. the democrats are militant in their opposition to the wall. any chance for a compromise to explode. brian: they have already given money to border security for bush. steve: the thing between schumer and president was, schumer is offering the 25 billion, the president thought he could get more. president fast forwarded now, he made it very clear, if they were to try to shut down the government before the my terms, that would inflict maximum leverage, but at the same time maximum damage perhaps on the republican. >> i have never, maybe someone can give me an example, maybe i haven't studied issue deeply enough i can not remember a

single instance where the person who was the shut downer, the shut earlier, receive a political boost as a result of the shutting down. everybody who has shut down the government, led the evident to shut down the government, ted cruz, during the run-up, destroyed his candidacy. i don't think the american people want the government to be shut down. they want as much as there is opposition and as much that conflict is necessary for a constitutional government, they want the two side to peaceally get along. steve: you're in a dream world. that is not possible right now. >> people say that about me, it may very well be true, i still believe, i remember our late great boss roger ailes used to say only thing in the middle of the road is road kill. maybe i am vulnerable to being road kill i maintain there is plenty of room for compromise. look what ivanka said today, he said it last night, ivanka

talking about her dad. there is no firmer supporter of president trump than ivanka trump. she said that the president wept too far with the separation of families. he did, it caused him endless heartache and heart burn, undermined moral high ground on the issue. now as a result of this and other things, we can find a common ground. in terms of undocumented immigrants, let's, you can not see the pictures of i.c.e. going to the homes of otherwise law-abiding, undocumented immigrants, many of whom who have been here for decades, many of whom have citizen children in the middle of night, ramming in the door and taking the person out to be deported. steve: if they're criminals. >> if they're criminals, that's different. i think i.c.e. has to be reformulated. brian: no. ainsley: they said the only reason they go to these houses they're not allowed to talk to them at detention centers. they don't like to go to the houses because it puts them at

risk too. they changed laws. don't want to come face-to-face with the illegal criminals locked up behind bars it, would be much easier, so many i.c.e. directors on recently, they say so much easier for us to fill out paperwork at detention center. we're forced to go to their houses because they changed the law. >> i think what has to happen is absolute separation of the two functions. i.c.e. is an honorable, honored law enforcement agency that is, that is given the job, the very difficult job of blowing up transnational criminal organizations, gangbangers, drug dealers, drug cartels, i.c.e. investigations they are heroes in the ice of fellow law enforcement and the people. ones, enforce mane and removal people, that is very, very difficult -- not fair to them. brian: is it okay to overstay a visa? is it okay to not show up in court?

is it okay to come here illegally? should we forget about it? >> no. brian: how does anybody enforce this? >> you do it, first of all you do it a lot smarter, if you want the wall, the wall i think will cut down on the juan and maria, the fruit picker, the babysitter, the lawn nower, the dishwasher, those immigrants will be, i think, kept out by the wall. but the transnational dopers won't be. i mean you see, i made this joke, in madison square garden, when they shoot the t-shirts into the crowd, man that was just 10-pounds of cocaine. you could shoot it over a 30-foot wall. >> catapult. >> united states, psychologically we need the wall on the southern border, it was squared that the demographic makeup the country is changing. brian: one thing about you, you go to the story. you've been to the border. tell me, i don't know your answer to this, when we go there

and talk to these people, on or off-camara, they want a barrier. sometimes there is cliffs, sometimes there is rivers. other times a solid wall, other times a fence. they want the barrier, helps funnel people. >> i have no problem with it. brian: but poem do this for a living want it. >> lots of people want it, brian. other people think it is a big, screw you, to all of latin america. my problem is with the humanity, the compassion and the tone. i think just like the president now is fighting with all the media, and the tone has become so harsh, all of us are horrified by it. ainsley: what about the tone on the left, abolish i.c.e., abolish i.c.e. brian: you like that tone? >> i do not like it. where did abolish i.c.e., come from, ainsley? you have to be fair. it didn't really get the momentum until you started seeing 6-year-olds and 4-year-olds separated from the parents. when you saw the church leaders. you saw democrats seizing this as a potential weakness in president trump.

look at this bad man. he is is taking children from their parents. i think that we have to be smart about it. we have to be compassionate about it. we have to be sensible about it. i want ms-13 out. i don't care about juan and maria, 10 years 20 years. brian: they would tell you they're not focusing on juan and maria. >> i see so much of it, brian. they go for the low-hanging fruit. their job is enforcement and removal. that is their job. just imagine someone been your neighbor. get a knock on the door. 2:00 in the morning. come on, pop, you're going, the kids are crying. the mother is bereft. i think there is compassionate way to do it. donald trump knows how to do it. the more he puts onus on schuler and democrats for their intransigence, their inability to to do anything, the absolute pledge they have made to do nothing to cooperate with this president, the more you put own

us on them being inflexible. brian: we have video of harry reid saying lottery is bad. >> they are bad. brian: but they have, schumer is saying the law enforcement during the bush era. now all of sudden he doesn't want the wall. he doesn't care about the lottery. steve: geraldo, we look in the passion, last 12 minutes and seven seconds, this is why a campaign issue in the run-up to the midterms. thank you very much. brian: pick up the geraldo show. pick up the book for sale, why it is selling so well. steve: mollie tibbetts family in iowa not giving up hope. fox news alert fine a new clue in the search for a the missing student. we're live in iowa next. brian: the look on this guy's face says he it is all busted, he is busted. caught on camera robbing a house. ainsley: a look down in the

brian: fox news alert. brand new clues in the search for mollie tibbetts. a red shirt reportedly found near a pig farm. investigators are combing through the pig farm. ainsley: this as the family of the missing iowa college student, they are not giving up, pleading for their safe return. ted williams met with mollie's mother yesterday. he joins us with the latest. ted is a former homicide detective and fox news contributor. ted, thanks for being with us. >> yeah, my pleasure. ainsley: tell us about the red shirt and the pig farmer. >> well, the pig farmer was someone whose property they had searched early on. they went back. it is my understanding they found a red shirt and trying to show a nexus between the red shirt and mollie. brian: that will be good. any type of clue. meanwhile you talked to mollie's mom and here's how, here is a bit of that interview. >> i was quietly sitting in the

public library. my youngest son scott called me and said mollie didn't go to work today. at that moment adrenaline shot through my body. something is terribly wrong. law enforcement is essential, crucial. i can't even find the words to say what has happened. >> just tell us who is mollie. tell us something about mollie. >> she was vivacious. she loves life. she was passionate. she was not afraid. >> how are you holding up? >> like i said through, through some kind of internal strength that is just there. the other night i walked outside to star lit sky i saw a shooting star. that was a, somehow, somewhere she is remaining with me. >> that mother is dedicated as well as the rest of the family and as well as the whole town of

brooklyn, iowa. they are dedicated on bringing molly home. ainsley: will they have another press conference today? is there any new information they're sharing with us? because we're all so anxious to find her. >> we're certainly hopeful. they are having a press conference this morning. as you know there was reward out. the reward was for $172,000 for mollie to be returned, no questions answered, they're willing to give the person, the abductor, who knows where mollie is, that reward. brian: they are using that term abduction though, right? >> yeah. they have used that on several occasions, the word abduction. they are certainly open-minded though, clearly they don't know where or what has happened to mollie. ainsley: is there reason to believe, i heard reports earlier, they do believe she is alive, and maybe being held

hostage somewhere? >> the family is optimistic. the family clearly believes, and rightfully so, that she is a live. they are going on that premise. that she is being held somewhere. that is the reason they offered this reward that was announced yesterday. brian: ted williams, thanks, stay on it. if you know anything, call the sheriff's office, 641-623-5679. ainsley: with any tips. protests erupted nationwide since president trump's election. how do you discuss politics with your kids, and teach them to be respectful? brian: don't do what they're doing. ainsley: a panel of mothers coming up next. brian: here is king&country. the song, not over yet. >> i need to take a selfie with this young lady here. carry on, little brother.

>> welcome back on this friday, we have quick headlines. the man who threatened to shoot steve scalise and a congresswoman is set to face a judge. he is accused of leaving voice mails for the house majority whip and house rnc chair, cathy mcmorris rogers. we will see them lead. make no mistake, you will pay. scalise was nearly killed after a gunman opened fire at a

republican baseball practice. he was shot in the hip. amber alert issued for a girl who may have been abducted. look at this. she was taken at reagan national airport in d.c. by the woman in the surveillance photo. the 12-year-old was traveling with a group touring american schools. they think she is in extreme danger. think she left the airport in this car. if you see anything, call police. ainsley: thank you, jillian. since president trump's election the left has not let up on the angry protests. [shouting] >> abolish i.c.e. abolish i.c.e. [shouting] ainsley: how do you calmly discuss politics with your children, being respectful of other's views?

elizabeth in the front. she is founder of accessories expert.com, mother of two. you were telling me during the break he recently had to have a conversation with your children. tell your folks at home about that? >> i try to find ways to talk to my two daughters four and five years old what is going on in the world, what is important with our family. i grew up in fort worth, texas, where the politics could not be more different than they are here in new york city. it is important for me to expose my daughters to both worlds i want them to know not everyone in our great country of america believes the same things. and we can have different viewpoints and be respectful of each other. when they encounter situations of controversy. recently we were at the israel day parade, saw protesters, i explained to them not everyone has the same perspective. we don't have to. but it is our job to do our homework and do our research and find out the truth for ourselves. and then take a stance. at the end of the day i just want my children to care and not

be passive. that would be a victory for me. ainsley: that sounds great. darby fox, is behind you, adolescent and family therapist. do you give melissa an a? did she handle that well? >> yes, she did. ainsley: how do we have conversations with our children? >> it is important to have conversations around politics and topics, what might their opinion be, explain the issue is, let them develop their own ideas. that is a more important way especially with younger kids to start talk about politics. ainsley: cathy on the front row, radio show host, fox news contributor, how do you talk about it with your children? >> we talk about regularly. we talk about topics, hot potato topics, kneeling during the national anthem. why people are saying they're kneeling and what the real reasons are. we talk about politics. talking about the birds and bees to your children. we want them to get the facts at

home, versus going out into the culture which they can get a lot of misleading, salacious, hyper billionic kind of information -- we have the black community voting in a large, blind bloc, for failed democratic policies, from my perspective almost decimated the black community. i think as a black mother i have an obligation to talk to my children specifically about policies of abolishing i.c.e., rushing to the border, trying to take in more illegals, things such of that nature. being very intentional about them. ainsley: erica is behind you, author of the book, book there, why prioritizing motherhood in the first three years matters. if you have a one-year-old, two-year-old, three-year-old, in the book, probably too early to talk specifically about politics. >> a little bit early. ainsley: what age? what age do we start talking about the specifics? >> by school age they're starting to ask questions.

you always want to answer the questions the children have. the children are exposed to a great deal because of tv, what they see, what they hear from other adults. talking politics with your children that are school-age and above is a great way to teach things like critical thinking and to teach your value system, as long as you do it in a non-judgmental open-minded way to allow them to have their open views. it is an interesting way to develop their minds. ainsley: in the back row, dr. aziz, schneur row psychologist, mother of twins, three-year-old boys, what are your feelings, your thoughts about this experience? >> if you keep the developmental and cognitive state of a child in mind having political and social discussions can be very enlighten and important for children to develop viewpoints, problem-solving skills, challenge them to see a the world from a different point of

view. for the election, even from adults, it was eye-opening in new york, we live in a bubble, we had no idea in new york, i had no idea how the rest of the country felt very differently. people i knew felt very differently. people it is important to have these discussions and your children to be compassionate with the strife of the people who feel differently than you. i think, i think, from a developmental standpoint i think the social developmental discussions are very important to developing your viewpoint and just growing. ainsley: if you live in new york, you have to realize there is a whole other country out there. elizabeth and i know that growing up in the south. the views are very different. it is nice to have an open mind. listen to other people and not be so angry. ladies, thank y'all so much. have a great weekend. fox news alert, the july numbers report. it is out now. we'll bring you the numbers. stuart varney standing by for all the analysis coming up next. here is king&country with a

brian: here we go, fox news alert. the july jobs report is out. steve: all right. it is kind of a good news, bad news thing.

157,000 jobs were added last month. that is less than economists were predicting earlier. >> unemployment rate dropped to 3.9%. that is down from last month's 4%. steve: stuart varney joins us. good news, bad news, right? >> i wouldn't say that the 157,000 new jobs is bad news. i think it's a little disappointing. we wanted to keep up a pace of 200,000 new jobs created each month but we've fallen short of that. the other side of the coin is, you have a return to 3.9% unemployment. that is the rate. that is very close to a generational low. a couple much months ago it was 3.8%. now we're at 3.9. that is still extremely low. one other piece of good news, if you look the revision to previous jobs report, it has gone up, up 59,000 new jobs, more new jobs created the previous month. brian: wanted 195 we thought we projected. >> i frankly wanted more than 200,000.

brian: the experts were projecting just under 200. >> second quarter of the year, april through june, in that quarter we achieved a 4.1% annual growth rate for the overall economy. we got july's employment numbers. economy's performance in the third quarter. a little disappointing. i was hoping for better. ainsley: what are the factors here. people are not really hiring around christmastimes in christmas shopping. is it the same for summer? >> that is very hard one to go after, actually. travel and tourism does well in the summer. brian: sorry about ainsley's question if it was too hard. i want to -- sounds like you're bailing on the question. i never saw anything like it. ainsley: i just wonder what the factors are. is that normal for jobs numbers? >> wait a minute. you're interjection. brian: you're right, i should have stayed out of it. steve: good news, unemployment rate went to 3.9%.

the reason it went up to 4% because of all new people coming in looking for a job. >> that is correct. right now you have more jobs open and available than you've got open and available than people to fill them. there is a skills gap. a lot of jobs on offer, can't be met by employees who have the skills for that job. you are climbing a little bit after wall. brian: not talking about people that are hurt. people that can work. people on the sideline are getting out. 600,000 got back into the workforce. we need people back in the workforce. for a while it didn't pay to work. they were getting food stamps and welfare, unemployment that lasted forever. >> what you have now a record number of people quitting the job that they have, because it is a great labor market can, they feel that they can quit what they got, move up to the food chain to something better. steve: trait up. ainsley: don't ever quit without another job, right? >> no, i wouldn't do that. i have long experience of not

doing that. steve: we know you will get nor data in, analyze it and talk about it 9:00 at fox business. >> you got it. brian: that is what you are wearing, right? >> i promise, brian. brian: good. you don't have jillian, do you. >> shall i toss to jillian? brian: go ahead. >> give us the news. jillian: wow. brian: right to the point. jillian: good morning to you. we do have serious news we're following. get right to the fox news alert. the police officer is fighting for his life after being shot in the head. officer jim duzel was responding to a call in colorado springs, when police say a man opened fire. he is due in court today. we spoke to nassau county police commissioner, patrick ryder about the dangers facing officers. >> we do a lot of different functions as a cop. to be targeted against the public, the public that we're entrusted.

[no audio. jillian: a christian pastor, james mccdonald's walk in the word, makes apple's top 25 list. it vanished from apple's itune charts. the drop happening within the 24 hours after pastor encouraging listeners to pay for the president on. cops say he swiped 1hundred dollars worth of stuff from a i recall childhood education. program they are still looking for him but with a face look that, and a clear image like that, chances are, they won't be looking for him that long. tim allen's character keeps his conservative viewpoint when his sitcom, last manned standing returns. >> i know what microaggressions is, ebb latest liberal attack on free speech. funny in you do them right.

the executive producer said i don't think we'll comment specifically on trump. mike backser is conservative, a republican, he holds those ideals. last manned standing was canceled by abc after six seasons. the reboot premiers september 2th on fox. a lot of people are looking forward to that. brian: very funny show. don't be surprised if tim allen turns up on our couch. steve: earlier this week we had greg gutfeld on the couch. he is with janice. >> what are you doing here. >> raining books and raining greg. >> you have a new book out. >> yes, called the gutfeld monologues. why would i be out here. i don't even know where i am. >> are you guys excited greg is here? >> you better be. >> are you doing weather? >> 70% of you a someness and 30% chance of more awesomeness. >> why don't you do this every

morning? >> i will stay up all night. a lot of drinking. >> buy this book, fantastic. >> the best book you will ever read since the last book you read. >> fantastic. >> greg gutfeld, everybody. >> back inside. steve: absolutely right, 70% chance of you a someness today. brian: he just walked off camera. i thought i was a professional. ainsley: he thought he was finished. brian: unbelievable. what comes up next, thousands in the streets in chicago. demanding an end to the violence. the mayor was not welcome to attend. >> rahm emanuel is a con man. >> he does not care about anybody but people in his neighborhood and his family. brian: gianno caldwell was there. he is there next. steve: here is king and country with, priceless.

♪ >> good morning, welcome back for quick headlines. do you remember when madonna said this? >> yes. i have thought an awful lot about blowing up the white house jillian: well she is not doing that, but she just moved her family to portugal to escape president trump. in an interview with italian "vogue," she says in part, quote, i wanted to get out of america for a minute. as you know this is not america's finest hour. he is famous for being the wwe wrestler kane. glen jacobs has a new job. the republican winning mayoral bid in knox county, tennessee, beating list opponent by double the votes. steve: steve chicago protesters taking to the streets demanding mayor rahm emanuel quit because of escalating crime in that city. chicago native, fox news political analyst gianno

caldwell was at the protest. he joins us live from the second city. >> good morning. steve: why was everybody called out to take to the streets to get some attention? >> honestly the residents of chicago are fed up with rahm emanuel's inaction. in addition they're fed up with the violence. they don't see any change. there was a surprise mess on it of that march yesterday from senior illinois legislator who is democrat. let's take a look. >> when we put this march together because in chicago there is too much blood shed in the african-american community. >> do you think mayor rahm emanuel failed chicago? >> rahm emanuel, first of all, is a con man. his whole job is to keep black folks divided. >> no, he doesn't care about anybody. but the people in his neighborhood and his family. >> city is in financial calamity. the organization, city of chicago, complete disarray, no matter which angle you want to audit or look at. chicago is a complete mess. >> you say he cares more about

the illegal immigrants than african-americans? >> i said exactly that. he cares more about non-citizens, african-americans than citizens, us that built this country. >> has done some good things, if don't step up and come to the people where the crime is. you know what i'm saying? the crime is on the south side and the west side. >> we have to make sure that president trump recognized that not everyone believes that chicago is a trump-free zone. if he is serious about helping the people in chicago, especially on the west side of chicago, i accept his help. we can't turn any help away. we have to make sure that people understand that criminals can not have their way with our streets. we have to protect our youth. we have to protect the seniors. people have to have safe places to walk. so you know, one murder is too many. and so if chicago police department and all the other law enforsments can't do it, we

should seek other help. steve: very damning to hear the people on streets of chicago saying our mayor cares more about people who are in this country illegally than them. >> yes. absolutely is, and i think that's a concern they share throughout the black community here in chicago. i found it to be particularly interesting that that there are leaders within the democratic party in illinois who are seeking the help of outside resources such as president trump. as you saw in that last interview with lashown ford, famously in 2010 requested the national guard come in. with that being the case, i think there are changes that can be made. i think there are outside resources that are necessities. so i'm hopeful there will be changes here very soon. steve: we'll see if the feds get involved. it's a desperate situation. gianno. we reached out to the mayor for

a statement, rahm emanuel. have not heard back. up next for king&country take the concert stage. that is coming up next. first sandra smith with a preview what happens on the channel 9:00 eastern. >> steve, good morning a news conference we're waiting that could reveal new information about the case of mollie tibbetts. the unemployment rate from july is out. reaction from the white house in moments. protesters filling the streets of chicago, calling for rahm emanuel the mayor, to resign. his challenger, former superintendent of police gary mccarthy will join us this morning. join us for "america's newsroom," top of the hour. keeping this tookus safe and protected... you can get comfortable doing the same with yours. preparation h. get comfortable with it. capital one and hotels.com are giving venture cardholders 10 miles on every dollar they spend at thousands of hotels. brrrr! i have the chills. because of all those miles?
