3:02 am
today. obviously you overslept. steve: that's called "fox & friends first." it's live. not exactly a rehearsal. thank you very much for joining us. we have a busy news week. we start this hour with a fox news alert. and the hunt for clues spanning more than 750 miles after a man opened fire at a video game tournament in jacksonville after he lost a game. >> heavily armed agents raiding the suspect's home in baltimore overnight. the 24-year-old is accused of killing two and injuring nearly a dozen before turning the gun on himself. brian: phil keating is all over. this live on the scene in northern florida in jacksonville with the very latest. phil? >> the sheriff's department not releasing an official motive at this point but according to one witness, the gamer, the suspect and killer apparently lost and then pulled out a gun and started shooting. the landing here in downtown jacksonville over my shoulder very popular place
3:03 am
with restaurants, bars and shops, live music but suddenly everything changed dramatically at 1:30 yesterday afternoon. >> people were being trampled. people were hiding. everybody was screaming in fear. >> a friend who was inside told me when everything started happening, a lot of guys actually like barricaded themselves in a very large bathroom and they were behind the stalls. so they stayed in there the expire time there was really no way to escape where we were playing from. like you were pinned in there. >> this was a qualifying tournament for the madden nfl championship series. the winners here get the right to go to vegas and compete for a total purse of 200 grand. the suspect and killer, the only person police and sheriff deputies say is responsible here. 24-year-old david kass out of baltimore atf and fbi searched his apartment, his town house yesterday and they closed down that scene last night.

according to witnesses it was absolutely terrifying, chaotic. it was a pure panic. the two victims that are dead, two dead, nine wounded by the gunfire. the two dead taylor robertson out of ballard, west virginia and eli clayton out of woodlan hills, california. >> so we know the suspect used at least one hand gun to commit this act. and we are working again with our partners at atf on that aspect of the investigation. >> so this is a pretty big tournament. very popular amongst the gaming community. although the people that play madden online with their competitors around the country, some of them were actually meeting for the very first time here at this tournament. so people around the country had come here for this: it's a big deal according to one the gamers he said people are just inside, having fun, playing the game they love. and then all of the sudden the shooting started happening. back to you guys.
3:05 am
brian: i was there of the statue of andrew jackson is right there in front. this is a horrible incident. but this is not usual for that area, right? isn't that very safe? >> there have been a couple other shootings at the landing over the past few years. typically it is pretty safe. it was more popular as an entertainment destination in years past. however, it's still a happening spot on weexdz. -like i mentioned, some weekday nights there is live music playing and people gathered around and having good times. unfortunately in this case, suddenly, somebody pulled out a gun and started shooting. steve: they did indeed. all right. phil keating live in jacksonville. we thank you very much. we will have the attorney general for the great state of florida pam bondi on with us live at 8:15. she will brief us on the very latest on what was going through that guy's head as best we know he lops a game and tried to kill as many people as he could.
3:06 am
brian: then all of a sudden celebrities like bette midler and tom arnold start tweeting about guns. this could be part of the dialogue and big battle with governor scott and senator nelson for that senate seat. rachel: by the way, there is a primary tomorrow in florida. iit could have an impact. steve: saw a news flash here on the fox news channel saturday night. john mccain, the world war -- rather, the vietnam war hero and political icon lost his battle to an aggressive form of brain cancer on saturday night. the schedule of his various ceremonies this week has been released and we will show you on wednesday, the senator will lie in state at arizona state capitol. then on thursday there is going to be a funeral at north phoenix baptist church. joe biden is expected to speak. on friday he will lie in state at the u.s. capitol rotunda. rachel: saturday a procession pass by the vietnam memorial.
3:07 am
and there will be a funeral at the national cathedral. then another funeral on sunday, a private funeral at the naval academy chapel and then he will be burden of prooburied nearbynext to his frk larson, a buddy of his that he loved dearly. i requested to be buried next to him. steve: he did. he wanted to be buried alongside the river academy. not at arlington where his father and grand father are buried. brian: very interesting that president obama has been asked to speak it looks like as well as president bush. it seems as though and it doesn't look like president trump will attend but vice president mike pence will. as you know senator john mccain was not shy about being in front on every issue you had no doubt where he stood whether the economy is collapsing or war in iraq was imminent or this surge needed to happen or there was an uprising in the ukraine, he was there wanting to take a stand. and steve, you remember, there was so many times he was on our couch.
3:08 am
steve: he was. john mccain was a friend of this program for over 20 years. and he stopped by a lot. we put together a little montage, some of the lighter moments to remember john mccain. brian: has to be senator john mccain who just happens to be on our couch. awfully happy for angry. >> little trip down memory lane. >> the president over the last couple of days said that you, as his 08 opponent would not get the nomination today because under today's republican party you couldn't be conservative enough. do you agree with him. >> . i always agree with the president. [laughter] i have a knew communication strategy for you, plrl donaldson said what's that? he said shut the f up. steve: any time you come to new york city we have to provide some barbecue. >> oh my god. >> we have a big basket of barbecue. >> that's great. >> i'm going to have a plate of shacroni.
3:09 am
brian: it's soup. >> you guys are doing a great job brine brian i will pass it along to. steve: steve that's okay. i'm listening. brian: he got mad at us, too, over the years. steve: he would occasionally call us jerks. hey, good morning you jerks. that was a term of endearment because, he saved those for his special friends. and because he was here so many times, we do regard him as a long-time friend of this program. rachel: send in your story cindy mccain says if he teases you, it means he likes you. brian: one time he yelled at us. i remember when the free syrian army was out there yelling allah akbar after taking out some kind of plane. said wait a second are we sure these people are friendsly with us? he yelled at us he said yes, i was just there they are friendly with us. they're people we can trust. i said okay. steve: let's talk a little bit of politics these days. the president's approval
3:10 am
number is, according to the "wall street journal," nbc poll 90% of republicans approve of the job the president is doing. meanwhile, just 10% approve of the job, if they are democrats regarding the president. what's curious though is that when you look at the polls is there have been a number of the president's opponents say they are spriftszed the number didn't go down further. he has had such legal problem and legal peril, perhaps. the number doesn't budge because he has a very durable core. brian: this is probably one of the most stunning polls i have season over the last five to 10 years. the president has been beat on by almost every news outlet yet, hills approval rating has gone up to 46%. people are saying wait a second that's where barack obama was, bill clinton and george bush previous presidents are. there is more things coming off his twitter feed. more fights he is having with other networks with the
3:11 am
media, the things he is saying. after this week of hell from his doorman turning on him to his cfo flipping on him all this other news swirling around he had to have taken a beating. the "wall street journal" and in connection with did another poll. before wednesday he was at 46%. after all that controversy it dropped to just 44%. which leads me to think that in democrats want to make the mid terms about the president, or if they want to run down the president, that's a rabbit hole that i think they will be -- they will not bear any fruit. rachel: you saw something similar to this after the whole controversy about the children at the border. his poll numbers with hispanics actually went up 10%. that was curious as well. i think, my theory is, one, the american people don't care. i go to dairy breakfast, i go to parades and talk to midwest they are not talking about cohen or russia or any of that the other thing is i
3:12 am
think his poll numbers are so durable is they are not built on hype. you know, barack obama got a lot of hype. he got a lot of support from the media no matter what he did. these are numbers that are built on solid results. so people can look at all the chaos but they go my 401(k) is going up. my son has a job. my kid moved out of my basement. brian: you can afford a dog. rachel: i got a dog. we will talk about that a little bit later. people are doing better. in the end, that's what people care about. steve: well, according to this, they asked which party best equipped to handle the party? 43 percent said the republicans. that's good news for the republicans. only 29% of the democrats. the motivation question, which party is more interested in the upcoming election? 63% of democrats said they had high interest. only 52. so republicans are only 11 points behind that kevin mccarthy was on over the weekend and he said that the generic tracking poll trying
3:13 am
to figure out which party you would prefer to see in control of congress is exactly where it was the day before the 2016 elections. rachel: ominous. steve: how did that turn out? brian: 50/42 in favor of the items right now; steve: michael cohen's attorney backtracking that the president had advanced knowledge of russian hacking. dolls mr. cohen still pose a credible threat to the president? we're going to talk to constitutional law professor jonathan turley, he has been thinking about that and is he up early next. brian: is he always smiling by the way. over a year ago andrew cuomo made this promise to new yorkers. >> we should have free public college for people $125,000 and below. brian: up our taxes more. so why are people getting rejected, question mark exclamation point, asterisk?

3:18 am
mr. cohen has knowledge on certain subjects that should be of interest to the special counsel. knowledge about the computer crime of hacking and whether or not mr. trump knew ahead of time. steve: well lanny is walking back those claims telling "the washington post" over the weekend i should have been more clear including with you that i could not independently confirm what happened. i regret my error. so with all the changes to cohen's story does he actually pose a credible threat to the president? here to weigh in george washington university constitutional law professor jonathan turley. jonathan, good morning to you. >> thank you, steve. >> what's up with lanny? >> you know, it's astonishing because, when this all was rolled out, lanny was saying that his client might have evident of everything from collusion to object destruction to, you know, the lindbergh baby kidnapping. it was an incredible list. and what's also sort of telling is that this was the same time that they were
3:19 am
rolling out their go fund me site to get donations for michael cohen. steve: a lot of people said why does michael cohen need a go fund me page. you look at some of the things that's been happening with go fund me pages whether it's mr. cohen or peter strzok or james comey. there seems to be a thread to them, right? >> yeah. i wrote a piece in the hill because it's a strange evolution of the role of this site. go fund me has become a site where can you essentially purchase testimony that people go out there and they really ramp up their expected testimony. steve: what do you mean purchase testimony? >> because what happens, people like michael cohen couldn't get a dime from anyone on the street when he was still saying he would take a bullet for the president. suddenly he started a promise that he could bag the president and they rolled out a go fund me site and they got hundreds of thousands of dollars. we have this weird type of
3:20 am
auction among potential witnesses, both pro and anti-trump for people to essentially contribute to their testimony. and it's a little unnerving for an attorney because people could actually change their testimony to give them more of a market position. and for michael cohen, he has tried to position himself as far as he can on the anti-trump site, and it has paid off it has sold like hot cakes. people have gone to go fund me and said i like that stuff, and they have given him a lot of money. steve: interesting stuff. read about it at the hill.com. what sort of legal peril the president that he wasn't in the week before. >> i think weisselberg is the biggest concern i have. he is the type of witness that you really worry about. he is detail oriented. he is involved in virtually every transaction that occurs through the trump organization. he's the guy that frankly as a criminal defense attorney i would be most concerned
3:21 am
with. not michael cohen at this point. steve: he is the guy who has all the receipts. >> yeah. steve: jonathan turley, thank you very much. >> thank you. steve: it would have made all the difference to bernie sanders, the dnc limiting the power of super delegates. we're going to talk about that next. before discovering nexium 24hr to treat her frequent heartburn, lucy could only imagine enjoying a slice of pizza. now it's as easy as pie. nexium 24hr stops acid before it starts for all-day, all-night protection. can you imagine 24 hours without heartburn?

3:26 am
one thing in mind for voters. >> making sure that at the end of the day when the process is done, the select democratic nominee, that they feel like their candidate got a share shake. brian: and many didn't. you will remember the super delegates were blamed for swaying the nomination in favor of hillary clinton. instead of bernie sanders before he even got out of gate. causing outrage among some sanders supporters. will this move help the democrats 2020. joining us national director for bernie sanders campaign figaro. tezlyn, first, is this a good move for the democratic party. >> it is absolutely a good move. i am so proud for sticking, you know, to his guns and really pushing that through. i only wish that they would have released taping. where is omarosa when you need her. i would love to hear so you hear the hypocrisy ♪ some
3:27 am
people like myself by not allowing party change. by not allowing same day registration. this is a wonderful move. really does show an act of courage to say we want to take a step to heal that divide 2016. so much bigger than bernie sanders. it's about having a fair democratic process. brian: to me more likely that sanders is going to run he put a quote out there saying this today's decision by the dnc is an important step as i will read off since the prompter is not moving. important step forward, democratic and response to the input of many ordinary americans who move on. who are super delegates, lawmakers, former presidents. dignitaries, people not part of the primary process. looks like the favorite son or daughter gets a push above the others. nancy pelosi is among the others that are in. in the big picture though, when it comes to leveling the playing field, do you believe that the democrats are going to have the republican light field of 16 two tiers on the debates
3:28 am
because there are some names out there. >> i'm hoping. so the last time they said a lot of people would be running and we saw only two or three that actually took the leap and got the press coverage to cover their races. i'm hoping so. i have think it's a good thing whether you have competitive campaigns. also i'm honest with you i'm not interested in people running to raise money or build their profile if they don't have the true intentions of the american people at hand. that doesn't mean that people that they say oh, well he doesn't have a shot so he shouldn't run. i think people who have shot run they make change like bernie sanders did. look at the type of reform he has been able to create in the democratic party. i joined his campaign for that reason. not because i'm a socialist. i say that each and every time because i'm not. the time of reform refeed in this political process is to have people run and take that leap. i hope we have 10 or plus candidates to choose from. brian: be out there, diffuse. at least you would have a real process not governor o'malley who never even registered even with -- i
3:29 am
don't think anybody in even in maryland. bernie sanders came out of nowhere and hillary clinton seemed to hold on with all the money and all the power. but, in the big picture, too, clearly the mantra is going to be i'm not donald trump. don't you agree? >> well, i'm sure that will be the mantra. we know you are not donald trump. the question is what are you going to do for people like myself. still something the democratic party is still going to have to challenge. no matter what's going on on the other side of the aisle no. matter what's going on. what we see with investigations and so forth. you are still going to have to answer the question how are you going to make life better for the average every day american citizen and actually ride on what you believe and not who you are not or how are most like. a lot of candidates i'm just like bernie sanders. that's not enough, either. what are you going to do? what are you going to put forward in front of the american people. voters this time around will be a lot more wise. at least i'm hoping so. brian: there is a lot of lawmakers say don't bring up impeachment, tez lineal. do you think you should
3:30 am
bring up impeachment if you want to be successful in the mid terms. >> i don't think impeachment is going to have anything to do as a congress member. bring it up or not bring it up. what doors it have to do with your campaign platform. if your campaign platform is i'm going to impeach donald trump and not talk about the actual needs of your constituents in your district, then they are having a problem with how to identify with your voters. you can be against donald trump. we get it we know people are for donald trump and people are against him. the question is are you for the things matter to me. i am hoping nor veterans from like myself become independent voters like me. i think that matters. one of the things that did happen that they changed was now you can change your party affiliation and can you do same day registration and that's very important. brian: tezlyn, thanks. appreciate it? >> thank you. brian: 30 minutes before the top of the hour. alexandria ocasio-cortez, is she the next barack obama? that's exactly what one news website is wondering and concluding. you bet dan bongino is fired up about this. he joins us to react. plus, no fire equipment?

3:36 am
everything they can to make sure they don't win. at the same time, it's essentially a road map of vulnerabilities, isn't it? >> you know what it really is, it is a road map to the full weaponization of government and frankly, steve, it's one of the most frightening things i have seen in a very long time. this has been the democrats' dream forever. full weaponization of government by a couple of things. if you go down that list. you will see exactly how they plan to do this. it's by using judges to legislate from the bench effectively usurping power. using the bureaucracy to endlessly target donald trump, family and interest. not because they are targeting criminality but because they are targeting trump. finally, the use of legislative committee physicals they take over, not to investigate criminality and malfeasance, steve, but to create it that's different. that list is terrifying. and that is the democrat's dream. anyone interested in liberty's worse nightmare.
3:37 am
brian: i agree that might be what the republicans want out. i actually believe that's what the democrats are going to do. if they are going to do it. can you tell me what's in america's interest? is that immigration reform? is that reigning in our welfare system. find ago way to pay for medicare in the long term? does that do anything for healthcare at all? nothing. all it is, we have got to knock him thought 2020. are we really going to waste another two years? >> well, brian, you have to understand they are not interested in -- policy proposals went out the window a long time ago. rachel: exactly. >> they never got over the fact that donald trump won the election. steve: right. >> their soul ghoul seems to be to represent everything that's not donald trump but not to stand for anything themselves. if we lose these mid terms, the republican party, it's going to get really ugly over the next two years. if you think it's bad now. it's going to get a lot worse after november. brian: adam schiff will be in charge. what else will he do? rachel: by the way, daniel, i'm not sure if it's going
3:38 am
to work. as you said there is not one policy proposal on there. we just looked at some poll numbers showing americans don't care. yes, that's their strategy, in the end, their plan to beat donald trump has nothing to do with ideas. it's all to kill them off by investigation. >> each when they do discuss ideas. they entirely filibuster it every time. look at their response to a very effective, at this point, i think most sound people, reasonable people can agree, the tax cut plan. their response was so discombobulated had nothing to say. nancy pelosi out there talking about crumbs. thousand dollar crumbs. halls she ever even at the table with the average american family? a thousand dollars goes a really long way, i assure you. steve: meanwhile salon has a headline, wondering this: alexandria ocasio-cortez, the next barack obama? what do you think. >> yeah, you know, i thought about this. sitting there getting ready for this wash your face in the morning, throw some via screeviznen.
3:39 am
yes she is like barack obama. i thought of two things. number one, she plays fast and loose with the facts. she doesn't really have a firm grasp of what's going on like obama did, so they rely on emotion. her response to, remember, she gave the example about the military budget on trevor noah show. she was completely off. she gave the example on the minutian situation over in israel, had really no idea there. she even acknowledged it they asked her about how to pay for the entitlement programs, she had no grasp at all the economics of it so obama used to do the same thing. remember, if you like your plan you can keep your plan. secondly, she is like obama with identity politics. when you don't have an answer to a question about how you are actually going to pay for this expansive government you want, you return to the identity politics thing. and that's -- that was a central tenet of obama's strategy from day one. and it worked so, yes, she is like barack obama. whether she can win a presidential election like barack obama is completely

different. brian: keep in mind, he was 48, she is 28. he already had years in a law firm. he was a state senator. she is, i think it's an insult to president obama to compare the two. steve: i think they were both community organizers. rachel: both suspicious capitalism. one admits to being a socialist. the other was more on the down low with it. i think they are the same in that regard as well. >> barack obama had a little more tactical still in answering questions. i said this before i run for coming. i mean. this a. applaud what she did. she worked really hard to do it. you have to know stuff at this point. this is a serious position in the u.s. congress and she has admitted in interviews hey i really don't know a couple times on these issues. you have to know stuff that's the part of being a congressman that hurts. steve: we know a lot about you after this interview. you wash your face in the morning. you use vizene and you had

rules are much more likely to reported an account for abuse to block accounts to use all the tools that twitter gave them to complain about content that they don't like. they do it according to studies three times as often as conservatives. so twitter's quality filter counts up each one of these black marks and says, jeesh, these must be bad guys because they say things that make people mad and eventually that puts new with a twitter calls low

quality and then your tweets are no longer seen by as many people as they are before. we have definitive proof of that. rachel: first of all statement from twitter spokesperson we do not shadow ban. we are aware that some accounts are not automatically populating in search box and shipping a change to address this. to be clear our behavioral ranking doesn't make judgments based on political views or the substance of tweets as you said. so, here is my question. it's a private business, but why also know it's the town square, if you will. on for a lot of people. are they inviting the government to come in and regulate them? what's the answer here? >> security studies group put out a facts sheet on our website security studies.org that details how this is happening and the damage it's doing to information landscape. that public square you mentioned ant the political discourse because right now, conservatives and republican candidates are disproportionately affected by this limiting of their

exposure. consequently, that is some kind of in kind contribution by twitter to democrat candidates and causes. so we're sending that fact sheet to the federal elections commission. we are sending the security and exchange commission because twitter, even though they are a private company is publicly trade, therefore, when they say things that are demonstrably false like they are not shadow banning, then they are lying to their shareholders and the public. we don't want the government to have to do this. we want twitter to fix it we just want a level playing field so the best ideas can win. brian: there were predictions that the social media con glom member rats were going to fix things in the mid terms. seeing this kind of backlash you are experiencing and jim hand son-in-law is getting in that word out. >> thanks. >> you got. if. brian: auto a reporter tries to get tiger woods to trash the president in post game tournament conference. >> the president of the united states, he has the president of the office.

voting for him in 2020. good luck. steve: give you more context regarding what tiger said in new jersey yesterday. but, could would he be on the verge of a new deal? there are reports out, and, in fact, the president is has kind of telegraphed it tweeting we are on the verge of something. we could have a new nafta deal, not with understand and mexico, but, maybe with just mexico as early as later today. rachel: that's very interesting. by the way, mexico has been a fair negotiator in this deal, i think. and putting the pressure on canada. the deal will come with mexico first and then move to canada. mexico is a very important trading partner for so many. brian: try lateral deal and mexico had an election. we had one outgoing government and one incoming government. the governments are working together to get a deal before they transition. if it doesn't get done in the next few weeks, start from zero again. steve: right. brian: i think there is a push. guess who is watching? canada? canada is going wait a

4:06 am
over the internet. there were about 50 people still competing on sunday. dozens of people suddenly fleeing that place. the suspect has been identified as david cass. 24 years old. not only did he shoot two people dead, he then also wounded nine others before turning the handgun on himself. apparently the sheriff believes he brought that handgun with him. according to one witness, the motive here was that this guy lost and then his losing turned to fury and he started shooting. back to you in new york. >> hey, phil, i have got a question for you. because this was all live streamed on twitch, one of the amazon platforms, and at one point you can see one of the other gamers, there is a red laser dot on the guy's chest. brian: steve, look at this, cover of the "new york post" there is the laser dot on his chest. steve: is there some suggestion this guy, the shooter from baltimore may
4:07 am
have wanted to kill somebody live on the air? >> it is peculiar that he would bring his concealed handgun into the gaming tournament. this kid, the 24-year-old david cass, not a kid. he was pretty well known in the gaming community. he had been interviewed before by these online streams. and he thought he was a really good player. but, in previous tournaments, he certainly didn't pull out a gun. it's unknown really whether he was hoping to do this live on the internet. brian: i'm sure there is going to be some psychological indications. he evidently gets eliminated the day before the shooting and he is wearing the same clothes the next day when he shows up. kills these people and then shoots himself. rachel: they interviewed some people who said he seemed like a weird kid. we will find out more. pam bondy is going to be up next. she is the florida attorney general she is definitely going to fill us in. steve: she will. all right. phil keating, thank you very much for the live report.

meanwhile, you will see live coverage of the memorial services for john mccain all week long here on the fox news channel. you know, when he was shot down in 1967, he was near death. and the pows there at the hanoi hilton did not think he would make it but he beat all odds and wound up with an amazing american story. brian: i don't know anybody that can remember these stories. documentaries on him. still find out something new every day. his mom still survives at 105 years old. 106 years old. and that is also amazing. especially when you look at him after crashing into the pond and being brought to that bed. he ended up in prison for five and a half years two plus years in solitary confinement. rachel: yesterday we actually had a pow at the hanoi health at the same time. i was hosting "fox & friends weekend" as you know. it was interesting the first person this pow saw when he
4:09 am
was released from his captivity was john mccain and they were in this square and he saw this guy just sort of hugging and talking and slapping people's back. they had just been released he thought to himself that guy is going to be a politician. and boy, walls he right. steve: i remember when they came off the plane a lot of them back in the 1970s. in fact, in the 1970s, you guys are too young for this. rachel: that's when i was born. >> they used to hand out these silver wrist bracelets and you would have the name of a pow on them. and at my school in kansas, john mccain's name was on a bunch of them. and i had one of them and i told him about that story last time i saw him. he said i did not know that but a lot of people were pulling for him. john mccain. they didn't even know him back in the 1970s. now the world knows john mccain. brian: they were familiar with him because his dad was a an admiral. a lot of talk he could have gotten out early as the
4:10 am
story goes. he said no, that's the order are in which you are captured i'm not getting out if i'm not next. meanwhile, 9 minutes after the hour. tiger woods didn't have a great four day tournament and he had a post game press conference as he got a lot of questions about the ryder cup team. one of the questions from one of the journalists was about tiger woods' view on president trump. now, you might have thought open up for a rant like came from lebron james, but not from tiger woods who says he has had a -- known donald trump for 20 years and they played golf a short time ago. dare i say they like each other. listen to tiger woods handle this question. >> he is the president of the united states. he has the respect of the office. and no matter who is in the office, he may like, dislike personality or politics but we all must respect the office. >> do you have anything broadly to say about the state of discourse of race
4:11 am
relations? >> no. i just finished 72 holes and really hungry. steve: i don't blame him. set up question asked about his relationship with donald trump was it professional or personal. and that's why he gave the answer he did. just like jack nicklaus and arnold palmer and gary player and phil mickelson down at trump durrell in miami, i just read, tiger woods has a villa named after him. and homage by donald trump. there can you see one of the images of him. i believe that's at mar-a-lago. rachel: you know if you are an athlete or celebrity, if you are even neutral on donald trump, that's a really, you know, tough question because you know you are going to get blow back from hollywood, other celebrities, from the eminent domain. i think he handled it very respectfully. i thought it was very well done. steve: the reporter was asking, is he your friend? or did you play with him because is he president? essentially that's the question. brian: other news jim said hard knox said it again i voted for the president once
4:12 am
and i'm going to vote for him again if there 2020. i know that doesn't make me popular with the black community but i don't care. rachel: let us know what you think about tiger woods answer and can you email that in to foxnews.com. steve: we have headlines. rachel: starting with a fox news alert. iran has said it is taking control of gulf and strait of hormuz. iranians threatened to block the major shipping route as tension's grow between the nation and u.s. iran test-fired a ballistic missile in that area earlier this month. candidates making their final pitch to voters today before critical primaries tomorrow. in arizona, congresswoman martha mcsally, former state senator kelli ward and former maricopa county sheriff joe arpaio are vying for the republican nod for retiring jeff flake's seat. in florida, trump endorsed congressman ron desantis squares off against adam putnam in the g.o.p. primary for governor. and current republican governor rick scott is the favored to win the senate

♪ brian: i know labor day is not here yet. mid terms are just around the corner and republicans are in a battle to keep control of the house a lot is at stake. what do they need to do to keep a majority in congress? let's ask a guy whose task it is to do just that majority leader kevin mccarthy wants to be the next speaker. first off, the "wall street journal" did a poll and they asked people what's their preference? terms of control of congress? 50 to 42 they want the dems how do you beat that? >> that changes week for week if did you go back two weeks ago plus three for the democrats. history is against us, meaning the party in power, the party that gets the white house normally loses seats by 30 on the off year. but the last party in party that had a g.d.p. over 4%, they actually gained. and the difference is what this whole election is going to be about. it's going to be results versus resistance.

the last time we had unemployment like this, tremendous. think of this. in the last 49 years in america, unemployment has only been below 4% 8 months. 8 months in 49 years. three of those 8 months was this year. not one democrat voted for that tax bill. so all this economic growth, they don't get any credit for it. brian: right now, we know. this democrats feel in many cases that their ticket to success would be vilify the president. if you look at what happened last week. look at some of the movements in the house in terms of impeachment, votes have already taken place. "wall street journal" does a poll. he started the weaker with 46% approval rating pretty high. >> yeah. brian: after the week from hell with his door man, with the guy from the enquirer, with his attorney, if drops just to 44%. if you want to vilify the president, that might not be the democrats' ticket to success. >> that's why it's results vs. resistance.

4:26 am
win. rachel: here to weigh in fox news contributor and turning point uas founder charlie kirk. welcome. >> good morning. rich. rachel: i'm not going to debate whether conservatives are being shadow banned on social media. i believe it and there is enough evidence out there. my question to you and you are a young guy. why aren't more conservatives, especially young people inventing another platform? there is clearly a market for it. you speak to the president. one personal donald trump lift that would probably hurt the bottom line for twitter totally left is making their move before the midterm. silence differing opinion. make no mistake. it's not because conservative voices are offensive. it's because they are effective. they are going after. so highly engage would popular conservative voices out there that speak hard truth. some would say controversial but, wait a second, why are they not getting rid of voices like louis farrakhan or some of the isis linked accounts? instead you see tech giants collude together.
4:27 am
you see twitter, facebook and apple and google all on the same day d list conservative voices. it's because they are afraid of the effectiveness of these conservative voices. we need to push back because it will be a huge, huge problem moving forward. steve: you are pushing back. charlie, look at these -- you know, we heard about diamond and silk. we heard about different people who have been essentially shut down or throttled to where they get no traffic. if the social media giants are doing them, they are not doing it very well. everybody is on to them. they can chart it look at a gauge and say okay, i had 3 million yesterday and then i had zero and it looks like i'm being silenced. >> right. and so, for example, prager university shined a really important light on this a couple weeks ago, their reach went from a couple million to zero. leader m mcmccarthy shining a lights. they are going to disenfranchise half of
4:28 am
america if they continue on this path. the very bottom line is the left hates the idea there are other ideas. they control these public forums or vehicles of conversation they are going to use every piece of power and influence they can to try to suppress our voice and we cannot stand for it. rachel: meanwhile, charlie, you say trump is giving hope to young people. explain. >> look, during the obama years, we were complaining about youth unemployment being near 20%. student loan debt skyrocketing and now we see the lowest youth unemployment in 50 years, wages going up. best economy to be a recent college graduate. thanks to the leadership of president donald trump, our generation has hope and opts michelle again, a lot different than what was promised under president obama. but low taxes, less regulation, entrepreneurial friendly economy is very, very good for young people entering the workforce. we should be thankful we are able to live in this country at this time with this president given the opportunity for our generation that was really quite frankly living inned mediocrity under the previous generation. steve: this generation is
4:29 am
seeing the benefit of the trump economy. do they realize it is donald trump and the republicans that have gave them a tax cut and lessened the regulations and young people yeah, this is great. , look, it's going to be us to make the compelling argument for the mid terms in 2020 that are it is this president turned the economy around for young people. that's why you are seeing more opportunity and higher wages and more jobs. look, it's really interesting. the left is trying to take credit for this. this is the guy that's going to crash the economy. you can't have it both ways. if you are going to blame him for a crashed economy. you have to give him credit for the booming one. ever since he took office have you seen unemployment go to record low levels for black unemployment. hispanic unemployment. youth unemployment. woman unemployment. wages are going up. g.d.p. growth. the first time in this century the g.d.p. rate is higher than the unemployment rate. think about that for a second. 4.1 g.d.p. growth. 3.9% unemployment rate. remarkable numbers. rachel: you only hear it

4:46 am
it. nancy pelosi wing, they don't want to have anything -- anywhere near it. brian: why? why? >> republican also turn out. if they -- let's be honest here. democrats are going to impeople if they take the house. they will be forced to by their partisan base. rachel: should republicans keep encouraging this good strategy tell them you will impeach donald trump. if you don't get donald trump and the g.o.p. congress you will get nancy pelosi and elizabeth warren and everything else that really hasn't helped the economy. >> it certainly is a good strategy. but ultimately then that chips away, i think, at some point there is a tipping point on the right as well where it chips at way at people's momentum and hear about it a lot and maybe you start to buy into it. it's a balancing act really for both sides. brian: tom styer has a big editorial today republicans join the impeachment effort. good luck with that just because is he rich he thinks he can get people to follow him. on a day in they were

supposed to be john mccain nbc 22 times, abc-12, fox 7, cbs 0. all trump had flip his door man and flip his friends in the media. flip his former attorney and, of course, they are trying to investigate his foundation, his company, a clause in the constitution. is he really under attack. >> well, he has been under attack. remember. going back even before he took office, you had people calling for his impeachment. the left has been out to get him the whole time. one of our people had to endure watching a whole day of cnn, msnbc tallied up 222 examples in one day of them using impeachment. that's where they are at. let's not kid ourselves about tom steyer. tom steyer is making noises behind the scenes that he wants to run for president

5:09 am
issues? >> no. i just finished 72 holes and really hungry. steve: keep in mind the president of the united states and tiger woods played golf, i think it was last thanks giving, dustin johnson was there. they were trying to figure out what kind of relationship do you have with the president. is it personal because you're friends or is it professional because he is in the golf business. he wouldn't take the bait. rachel: the strategy on the left, kanye, tiger woods, ask people, to try to shame them somehow throwing the president under the bus. if they say, hey, stand with them, he is my friend, again to attack him, and this was very good response on the part of tiger woods. i'm not throwing my friend under the bus. he is the president. we all should have the respect for the office. brian: jim brown, see him in the 6's, with cassius clay, slash muhammad ali, and bill russell and wilt chamberlain. you see him in the 1960s, you go

5:34 am
apparently he made a deal and spilled as many beans on michael cohen as the prosecutors wanted. where are we with the southern district of new york which is different than the mueller investigation? >> well, i've said from day one that the greatest risk to president trump, his presidency and his businesses are in the southern district of new york, not with mueller. remember the mueller investigation all involves issues that have constitutional defenses. you have the right to fire to fire comey. he had the right to customer his presidential authority. there is no collusion. he was entitled to have dealingses with foreign countries if in fact he did. the problem is that with the southern district there are no constitutional defenses. these are business investigations. of course the president can not be indicted but his businesses can be indicted. they can look into loans that he may have secured, foreign investments, foreign involvements. he has fewer defenses.
5:35 am
that is why from day one i said we never needed a special prosecutor or a special counsel. the u.s. attorney's office can do all the investigations that are necessary and if i were trump's lawyers, i would be focusing all of my defense efforts on the southern district. let the mueller probe go. i don't think it is going anywhere but the southern district raises some real red flags for trump's businesses. look, my friend harvey wrote a book called, three felony as day. if the u.s. attorney's office investigates any business, they're going to find three felonies a day. that is the way the laws are written. if you look hard enough you will find something. they're looking very, very hard. brian: looking how the campaign finance, we know that they're trying to see if michael cohen if he kind of financed that. trump organization, manhattan attorney general is doing that the maryland, there is an investigation into possible clause, and trump foundation, the new york attorney general,
5:36 am
is looking into that. i'm saying why, why, do you need to get to the bottom of this now? all those things were good or bad before he ran. this is attack on a president because you don't like him. why is that allowed? >> well, there is no doubt about that. they have targeted the president. they have targeted his business. some are trivial, the emoluments clause, that is going nowhere. he has constitutional defense. the vulnerability is in the business. they have targeted, they have said, look we've known about mr. trump's business dealings for year. we never looked into them. now we'll start looking into them. i don't think campaign contributions are going anywhere. the president has the right to make any campaign contributions he wants. the worst thing they will find is a failure report, that is on the treasurer of the campaign, not on the candidate himself. the vulnerabilities, if you look
5:37 am
deeply into any complicated business, a loan somewhere, income is overstated, liabilities are understated, at least in the opinion of some expert. that is where the vulnerabilities are going to lie. rachel: what happens to our republic? we're criminalizing political differences, weaponizing government? what is the outcome for us as a people? if i'm an independent businessman whoever thought about running i'm never doing this because as you said, you can look through all your things and find something? >> look, the biggest crime you can commit in america today is to a have been associated with donald trump. if you're associated with donald trump, they will manafort you, they will cohen you, they will do all of these things to you. they will look hard and they will search and they are going to stretch. maybe they will find something, maybe they won't. is anybody really see his wife is above all reproach? only people will run for office
5:38 am
independently wealthy people don't have to rely on businesses or people come from backgrounds where there is no vulnerability at all. businessmen are going to be deterred from running for office, they know it will result in a kind of legal colonoscopy. everything they have done from the day they started out in business. and they're going to go beyond the statute of limitations because they will allege rico violations. i've been through this. they usually do it with the mafia. it is the al capone approach. if we can't get them on grounds we would like to get them on, go after them on taxes, go after them on business. it is targeting people. if they can target president trump, they can target you, they can target anyone. that is the problem. steve: alan, as you were talking about the southern district of new york, the u.s. attorney there, can't, the president may not have legal peril there but with about his family? because his family currently is running the business. >> his family, his friends, his
5:39 am
business, they can go after the money in his business. they can start attaching assets. that is what the u.s. attorney's office often does going after a business person. they will try to flip nor witnesses. as judge ellis says, when you flip a witness may not only sing, he may compose, he may elaborate, come up with more stories. you search every document, you find one problem in a little document, suddenly we're into rico land, you can go back 10 years. take all the money over that period of time. nobody, as learned hand once said, short of surgery the one thing he would fear the most is an investigation of this kind. brian: southern district of new york have a boss? >> there is a boss. bottoms is recused in the case. most of the people who are looking into the case -- brian: but it is not russia. >> well there is no russia
5:40 am
investigation. brian: so why doesn't the attorney general crack down? >> the, the attorney general could, well the question really is, it is an interesting one thaw pose. the attorney general recused himself because of russia. but i think he is probably recused himself from the whole investigation. so it is not clear he can. in any event, attorneys general don't really have power over day-to-day civil servant assistant u.s. attorneys. remember the u.s. attorney in the southern district is also recused. it is one of his deputies who is conducting this investigation. i don't think there is all that much the president can do here to stop the investigation. i think people who support president trump ought to hope that the businesses were conducted entirely aboveboard. or if there are minor violations, they're corporate violations, not personal violations, but the president has to be focused on this, concerned about this, the legal strategy has to be looking at
5:41 am
southern district more than the mueller investigation because the defenses to the mueller defenses are constitutional in nature. the president can't be indicted but the investigations in new york don't have the same kind of constitutional defenses. rachel: well i think the american people want to focus on the country but you're saying they need to be focused on this. thank you, professor. >> he has to do both. he has to do both. brian: need as legal a-team. >> yep. brian: 19 minutes before the top of the hour. that was alan dershowitz. now this. america prepared to say farewell to senator john mccain. details of the memorial services coming together. we'll give you details. steve: veteran volunteer group helping to pick up the pieces from hurricane harvey from a year ago. janice dean flew down to houston and she will give us an update straight ahead. ♪ over the last 24 hours,
