12:01 pm
two weeks from today. and the trump campaign manager says the president is all in with control of congress on the line. let's get to it. ♪ shepard smith reporting live from the fox news deck. >> shepard: testifies mike pompeo is expected to speak to reporters in the next few minutes. we will bring it to you once it gets underway. this is happening as we are hearing unconfirmed reports now that parts of jamal khashoggi's body have now been located in the garden at the saudi counsel general's home in pieces and parts in the garden in istanbul. where is this coming from? well, it's coming from our sister network sky news sky news in great britain and europe say somebody cut up his body and his face dumping remains in that garden. fox news cannot independently confirm that report. we should note turkish officials tell fox news they have not found any remains.
12:02 pm
but sky news stands by its reporting. vice president mike pence is confirming cia director gina haspel is in turkey now reviewing the evidence vice president says this is a barbaric act and it will not go without an american response. meantime, the president of turkey says the saudis plotted khashoggi's gruesome death for days. >> some information gathered by security and evidence team still being evaluated indicates already that the incident was certainly planned. they many be in the prosecutor's investigation case. to blame it on a handful of security and intelligence members would not satisfy us or any international community. >> shepard: some analysts say the turkish president could be playing his own game trying to change the balance of power in saudi arabia and in the middle
12:03 pm
east. more on that political something in just a moment. khashoggi's was a critic of the kingdom's royal family died after a fist fight with what they are calling rogue agents. turkish officials say he they beat khashoggi and cut off his head. rich edson is live at state today. rich? >> shep, this was a highly anticipated speech for the turkish president erdogan that he delivered to parliament today. his party in parliament in which he gave a broad outline in what the turkish investigators say they have uncovered in this case. it involves, according to erdogan what began as a 15-person saudi team that arrived in istanbul. preplanned jamal khashoggi's murder and planned for him to arrive there erdogan asked for the location of jamal khashoggi's body and would only say that saudi's
12:04 pm
team were inspecting forests near istanbul and northwest of the country. erdogan makes no mention today of what is reported to be an audio recording of jamal khashoggi's murder that the turks apparently, according to these reports, have in their possession. it's also a recording that the secretary of state has repeatedly denied having heard when he was in turkey last week or having seen a transcript of that. also vice president mike pence says the united states is reviewing all this information with turkey and the president will then make his decision. >> word from president erdogan this morning that this brutal murder was premeditated, preplanned days in advance, flies in the face of earlier assertions being made by the saudi regime. >> many of the details in this case have been coming from turkish state media and turkish government. this announcement by president erdogan continues that stream of information from the turkish government. erdogan says that the 18
12:05 pm
saudis that the government has arrested should be tried in turkey as saudi arabia continues to say that this was a hogie operation gone bad and an intelligence or an interrogation gone bad, shep. >> shepard: insane photograph coming out of saudi arabia as khashoggi's son was forced to meet with the prince who is accused of ordering his father's murder? >> his son and his murder. this released from saudi state media and the saudi government in a meeting that happened earlier today. the king and crown prince expressed their condolences in that khashoggi's brother said and expressed his great thanks for that consolation. the associated press is reporting that a saudi friend of khashoggi says khashoggi's son had been barred from leaving the country since last year because of his father's criticism of the saudi government. the saudi crown prince claims that he himself had no knowledge of any plan to murder khashoggi earlier in this month. shep? >> shepard: thanks very
12:06 pm
much. appreciate it, rich, let's go to michael o'hanlon now, senior fellow in foreign policy in brookings institution a public profit. definition security and national security policy. good to see you again. >> hey, shep. you too. >> shepard: we talked about this like a week ago. any surprises in the way thought narrative has developed? >> what you are just talked about with the idea of the relatives show gratitude to the saudi regime. that sounds like what saddam hussein used to do. used to charge family for the bullets used to kill their looed ones. i mean, this just gets more horrible with every detail. and i really want to commend you for keeping the details in front of everyone. otherwise, it's too easy to go back to business as usual with the saudis. we have so many interests with them. we need -- out world needs their oil. they need our military protection would all want to hope he is be a reformer.
12:07 pm
this is way too gruesome. i'm glad you are keeping up the coverage. >> >> shepard: what do you make of the messages they are sending, we found body parts in the garden. oh we didn't find body parts. here is a picture. why in the world would the united states allow them to have a picture with our representative when we are accusing this man with whom he is pictured of murdering this guy with three american children? >> great point. i'm generally supportive or understanding of why president trump is not trying to commit to too big of a punishment too fast. i don't think that secretary pompeo should have been seen in quite the same way that he was seen in recent days on his trip to saudi arabia we're going to have to start right away ratcheting down the visibility and the warmth of this relationship. we can't break it off. i'm not suggesting that this murder, however horrible, is such that we should no longer defend them or no longer buy their oil or have the world buy their oil. but business as usual has to end for a while, right about
12:08 pm
now. >> shepard: what does it mean business as usual? because we all know that everybody has skin in this game not the least of which the turks. we can sit here and talk all day about the things that erdogan. reporters without borders stems 43 journalists locked up right now for reasons that just have to do with them doing their jobs there are no saints in this mix a colleague of mine and i are writing a piece. this is another one of the pet projects of this crown prince mohammed bin salman. we can see before our eyes this guy's judgment is not very good. he acts out of arrogance. is he impulsive. he doesn't have much regard for human life. it's time for the united states to step in and stop providing unconditional weaponry and intelligence support and logistics support for this operation. we have got to have a veto over targeting. ratchet down munitions
12:09 pm
supplies for that war. i'm not suggesting cuts off all arms sales the munitions being used in yemen need to be ratcheted back and we need a dual key arrangement. we can't trust this mohammed bin salman who have good judgment. >> shepard: it's our fault that the viewers watching us now don't know more will about the conflict in yemen by all accounts started by same man mbs one month after he came into office security services. we were dragged into this immediately. little children are dying. bombing hospitals all the time. without question these are facts this war in yemen is as brutal as anything we have seen. >> the problem is the saudis see iran's hand on the other side. those no better than their hand and therefore they get very angry. we see with this mohammed bin salman what his anger does when it's unconstrained. he doesn't have good control of his own emotions. that's why can he plan a
12:10 pm
brutal murder in it istanbul and indifferent is he stuck in a gag myer. quagmire. we americans understand civil wars are hard to end. i'm not suggesting that his hopefulness to end the war nothing something we never made same mistake. is he showing callusless for human life in that war. we have got to get more involved to force him to rethink his strategy. some sort of negotiated settlement. allow the houthi group some degree of autonomy and stop the fighting. >> shepard: let's hope so. michael o'hanlon, thank you again. >> thank you, shepard. >> shepard: secretary pompeo set to speak later in this hour. we will bring it live. let's see what he has to say about the evidence or whatever he has learned. the dow was off by 500 points earlier today after a global sell off and would you look at this? picked up 500 points throughout the afternoon. who knows by the time we get to the closing bell. maybe it's back to even. we will see what's been moving the market. we are also watching a group

12:37 pm
violating anything. it will just be expanding. moscow denies that 3w089 ton said he talked with putin about withdrawing from the agreement. look, we are going to withdraw because you broke the rules and about russia's election meddling. he said he talked to them about that. bolton also said that putin wants to meet with president trump again. the two leaders held a summit in helsinki in july. bolton says he will work on arrangements for them to meet in paris in november. and jennifer griffin is at the pentagon. you know, they are talking, jennifer, about nuclear arms and the rest. so they are talking about some fight that may be to come while the russians are without question attacking us right now. >> well, putin reportedly told national security advisor john bolton that he would work with the -- with the u.s. on disarmament. but, bolton kept to his hard line after meeting for the past two days with his russian counterparts in addition to putin. he did not agree to talk with russia about saving the
12:38 pm
intermedial range nuclear forces treat were or inf signed as you mentioned by reagan and gorbachev in 1987. >> it is the american position that russia is in violation. it is russia's position that they are not in violation. so one has to ask how do you convince the russians to come back into compliance with obligations they don't think they are violating? >> in other words, this does not appear to be an attempt by the president to negotiate a broader treaty with russia using the nafta model for negotiations, pull out and then work to make adjustments to the treaty, shep. >> shepard: really more importantly than those in the treaty, meaning the russians and the americans, there is the chinese, which is probably the real thing happening here anyway. >> well, that's really the pentagon's concern is that the treaty does not cover china, iran or north korea. here is bolton. >> i think it's important, first, to look at the realities of the treaty
12:39 pm
outvoted, being violated and being ignored by other countries, so, under that view, exactly one country is constrained by the inf treaty, the united states. >> today bolton said there is evidence the russians have violated the treaty since 2014. that's the same year, shep, that obama administration accused the russians of violating the inf and testing intermediate range missiles. in particular a new ground launched cruise missiles. nato ally germany has expressed grave concerns, however, about the u.s. pulling out of the treaty, shepard? >> shepard: jennifer griffin live at the pentagon. thank you. back now to the migrant caravan heading in the yen direction of the united states border 1082 miles away. thousands of men, women and children from central america, still more than that thousand miles away. if some of them do, in fact, make it to here, what then? we're not saying let them in. we are trying to give you
12:40 pm
the truth about who they are, how this started and what they are doing instead of the political spin that you have been given. that's what we are trying to do. we are not saying let them all in. no one said that what we are saying there is a process. rules about this. we have rules about this. republicans have to be in charge of everything right now. laws are on the republicans. if they want to change them. they have have the votes to change them. they have can do that. they will have a president sign off on it they can change the laws. eyone that. this is on republicans. the laws are on republicans. judge andrew napolitano is here. fox news senior judicial analyst. that's true, right? there are laws like if you get up close to the border, we learned back in april what happens. >> if you step one toe onto the border, you are entitled to file an asylum claim and that asylum claim guarantees you a hearing before an american immigration judge which will take about six to eight months to hear. in the obama years once you filed the claim you were set free. a lot of people came back for the hearings, some didn't.
12:41 pm
in the trump administration, people are detained until the time of the hearing, and separated from their children. the detention of the adults is lawful. the separation of them -- separation of their children from them is not lawful. >> shepard: sounds like the laws need to be changed. the president or -- but the president has said the laws need to be changed. but the president now owns the courts and the congress, both halves and the presidency. this is on them, isn't it? >> the president has taken an oath to uphold the law. the law says when people come to the border, they are entitled to an individualized evaluation, not a blanket thou shalt not pass because we think you are invasion. individualized evaluation that's the law he has to enforce. and it was very painful for the trump administration when they attempted to enforce it a few months back by graphically separating children from their parents. >> shepard: what is -- give us the history on asylum and the reason that it exists?
12:42 pm
>> well, the reason it exists, shep, is to provide an escape from oppressive governments. not oppressive economies. not because you lost your job or the business you worked for went out of business. buff if you are in a country say, honduras where the government fails to protect your natural rights. fails to protect your property or your right to walk down the street. fails to enforce criminal laws and basically let's gangs run the streets, you don't want to live there. you're not going to live there. we welcome you with open arms. you have to demonstrate to an immigration judge that you are, in fact, the victim of this kind of government repression. and, therefore, you are entitled to asylum in the united states. this is outside of the quota system. and the government has no choice but to admit you once an administration -- once an immigration judge finds that you are a victim of this. >> shepard: i don't like it, that i have to go 60 miles per hour. i would much rather go 90. >> right. >> shepard: there are laws about that and supposed to be for the greater good.
12:43 pm
i'm not sure i agree with those laws at all. whether i agree with them doesn't matter at all. if guy 90 i'm going to get locked up. >> judge: if you are president you took an oath to enforce them whether you agree with them or not. >> these are not new concepts but we are in the middle of a place where we are coming up for an election and the president has said, i haven't said. the president has said i'm going to use kavanaugh and caravans, the politics of fear. i'm going to use the politics of fear to try to get my base mobilized and motivated because, before they had their courts, they had their judges. things are going along pretty well. what you want. if you are of that persuasion is going just fine. you are not motivated kind of satisfied. >> judge: they are terrified of losing the house of representatives and this is one of the means they think will help them keep it. >> shepard: there is a process involved. if they want to change the laws there is a process for that. >> they can do it. >> shepard: because they have all of the pieces and parts. >> yes. >> shepard: nice to see i, judge napolitano. fominutes from now mike pompeo is prepared to talk about

states. so targeting candidates in what are called toss-up races. ted cruz is an exception to that because his race is seen as not so close or not as close as it was when this rally was scheduled. but, a lot of these races are up for grabs. >> shepard: they are up for grabs. the president is playing to the base. his popularity is up. his popularity among the base is enormous. and it seems like the idea here is motivate them. tell them anything to get them motivated. don't make them feel relaxed about the way things are now. but feel the need to go. get them afraid of the invading army from the south or that the courts might change are you might not get a made up out of thin air 10% tax cut that's not going to happen. say anything, it appears. >> well, administration officials today were asked about that tax cut and they were told the president is the one who is speaking about that tax cut. >> shepard: no one on capitol hill knows anything about it you can't have a tax cut without congress and finding a way to pay for it because the freedom caucus

won't allow it. it is discussion about nothingness and means nothing, period. >> there are a lot of things that the president is talking about right now where, when you ask the white house, there is just crickets, because it's not based in fact. >> shepard: doesn't seem to matter. we have been two years now. we ought to know by now. it doesn't really matter. if you say it often enough and loud enough and get enough people around you saying it, don't have anybody push back, people will believe it and it will serve your purpose. >> in fact checking sometimes serves the purpose of amplifying. >> shepard: it does. what are you supposed to do. are we supposed to say when he says something let him say it like when we know it's not true. when we know it's not invading army. there is no evidence that there is middle easterners and ms-13 or anything else in there. when we know that there is not a tax cut come? are we supposed to just let it slide? >> it's a quandary. this is the challenge. >> shepard: i mean, it won't always be like this. >> it's tough.

>> shepard: breaking news and continuing coverage. the president is in the white house speaking to the white house pool right now. as it turns out pastor brunson who has been trapped over there for the longest time in turkey has been released and he is there. and the president is having one of those sort of media free-for-all's he doesn't sit down with individual interviews where can you ask follow up interviews and the rest. and sarah sanders which is whens the last time you saw her. they do have these things where reporters screams questions at him and he had screams answers back. we are having a doozy of those today again. on khashoggi, the saudi arabiaen journalist and "the washington post" contributor who was murdered and reportedly cut up and most recently reported by sky news to have had his body parts dumped in the lawn there, he says the coverup was the worst in the history of coverups. so he is apparently acknowledging that the saudis were covering this up. i mean, how could you not?
12:57 pm
but, he says it was the worst in history of coverups. on his claim that there are middle easterners in the caravan, i have very good information. if anybody had evidence of ms-13 or various middle easterners in there who are coming up here to do us harm, this is just not worth discussion because it is patently untrue. fox news has no information to suggest anything like this is true nobody has provided us with any information the white house has not pointed to any information. the white house is not forthcoming with any of this. were it true 14 days before you vote and the president could make the claim that there were people coming to get us and here they are he would do it because it works for him politically and works for the politics of fear. if he could do it, he would do it. if he had done it we would report it. vice president pence comes into the room. i'm reading to you what's going on. says that the caravan is

12:59 pm
at the moment. he was asked about his comments that he is a nationalist. because, remember, the president was talking about in the context of people being globalists, which is the only fair way to put. this the conversation was about others being globalists. he said i'm a nationalist. now, can you interpret that however you want. i have no -- i can't tell you how to interpret that. i don't know how to interpret that i know that, you know, it's a worked that's been used before and if he used it that way and didn't mean to or if it was like a dog whistle, i don't know what it was. he said is he a nationalist. he may have meant look i'm about this nation. i'm not about the world. i'm going to give him that suggested he is concerned about erdogan's comments on the khashoggi killing and, again, defend defended his poste in saudi arabia saying other countries would sell weapons to the saudi arabia and probably would. they buy weapons all over the world. our folks asked him whether he meant he was white nationalist and he said he hasn't heard that theory and he explained he meant nationalist from a trade standpoint. there you go. kevin brady will be unveiling a tax cut in the coming days.
