butter cup on there. jillian: they said you better save some for us. >> sorry. best day ever. thanks for watching. "fox & friends" starts right now. >> cookies! ♪ ♪ get along down the road ♪ we got a long, long way to go ♪ here to live ♪ here to die ♪ we ain't perfect ♪ but we try. steve: we ain't perfect but we try. ainsley: that's true. steve: welcome aboard, folks. it's "fox & friends." we ain't perfect but we're on tv. brian: i'm just telling you something could go wrong today. ainsley: you were born for this like beto. brian: how many people are singing with kenny chesney. like he is singing in front of a chorus. do you listen to how many people are singing that song. is the crowd singing? is that done in a studio. steve: probably the effect. it's a button.
3:01 am
ainsley: do you have ear for music you? always listen to the background. always guessing how many people are in the band or maybe there is no. brian: anybody saw me play the clarion net clarinet know i don't have an ear for music. ainsley: if you forgot your clarinet that day you had to borrow one out of that solution. >> yuck. ainsley: in that solution. that always grossed me out. they have like a sanitizer. brian: you cannot share reeds: they are like go to the back and get one. steve: i took my al that phone sax to school every day for five years. ainsley: you played five years. good for you. steve: very talented. brian: that is what they call a chick magnet the alto sax. women love men who play saxophones. ainsley: we love kenny gee.
3:02 am
brian: soprano sax. we are going to get yelled at. ainsley: we need to talk about 2020. steve: we do. the president was down at lg liquified gas plant down in the great state of louisiana. the event was designed to tout energy policies. that particular plant, super cools the liquid form of natural gas to be ships abroad. that's a good story. the president took a little time out of his time in front of all those workers to talk about the 2020 democratic field. and he says this about that. >> i'm looking at the competition. you sort of dream about competition like that. but who knows? who knows? i got buttigieg. i got them all. i got beto, beto is falling fast. what the hell happened? remember about four weeks ago he said i was made for this. he was made for it. he was made to fall like a rock. [laughter] what happened to him? but he has tried to restart
3:03 am
his campaign. that generally doesn't work out too well. political geniuses. when you have to restart your campaign, history has said that does not work out well, right? i don't know what the hell happened to biden. i'm looking that doesn't look like the guy i knew. what happened to him? bernie, you know, bernie is crazy. [laughter] but bernie has a lot more energy than biden so you never know. boy, you got some beauty there. 350 million people and that's the best we can do. brian: i will tell new terms of beto o'rourke. if you watched him on the view yesterday the president is absolutely right trying to restart and apologize at the same time for everything for being white, for being -- showing white privilege and being on the cover of variety magazine. ainsley: vanity fair. brian: i think he has been swamped first by bernie and now bye bye den and now by pete buttigieg-adjudge. steve: edge, edge.
3:04 am
ainsley: mocking elizabeth warren calling her pocahontas. and joe biden how he is not the same vice president he used to he no. joe biden was out campaigning in new hampshire. i was reading some articles how he had to use the teleprompter because he is gaffe prone, he had to use the teleprompter out on the campaign. steve: first time in new hampshire. and it was a town hall event. and so people were able to ask questions and make statements and, listen to what joe biden agrees to regarding the comments from a woman. >> he is an illegitimate president in my mind. my biggest fear is that he is going to do it again with the help of vlad his best pal and we will be stuck six more years this guy that is terrifying. >> would you be my vice presidential candidate you? are absolutely right. and now they have an investigation of the investigators who are investigating whether or not
3:05 am
vladimir putin and the russians engaged in trying to affect our elections. give me a break. gosh, almighty. brian: joe biden also when he gets to the q and a part he struggles. people say he has been gaffe-proof so far. i don't know what they are listening to in terms of saying there is no scandals that invites criticism. saying there is nothing to look at with his son. that invites scrutiny and then to say that china is not a competitor questions his sanity. beto o'rourke though as i mentioned earlier was on "the view." he is on making another offensive as he looks to reinfigure rate his campaign which lost momentum after he said i would like to run for president. steve: born to run for president. brian: you are right. born to run for president. will be president. i'm not sure. apologizing for everything, especially. this. >> all r. those mistakes? would you say those are misstays being on the cover of vanity fair. >> yeah. >> looks elitist or, what? >> yeah, yeah. i think it reinforces that
3:06 am
perception of privilege and that headline that said i was born to be in this in the articles attempting to say that i felt that my calling was in public service. no one is born to be president of the united states of america, least of all me. steve: one of the problems with beto though he has been out on the campaign trail a couple of months. what's his issue? brian: i have no idea. steve: when he was asked where do you stand on certain things he goes you know, i'm just hear to listen to you. i'm going to become the president you want. i think that's one of the problems with him. so many people said oh, look, he has a great team behind him but ultimately you need ideas. and so for a they hav so far thn far and few between. ainsley: don't know much about you. you lost last election and vanity fair wants to put you on the cover of course you would say yes. i don't know why he would walk that back. i don't know why he would be considered elitist. steve: just because he said he was born to do that job.
3:07 am
ainsley: if you are born to go into politics if that's your passion. i'm defending him here. that's okay to say that i feel like that's fine. brian: a way to say it and not sound cocky or way to say it and sound legitimate. whatever you want to say about aoc sounds like she is comfortable what she is saying you. let the debate begin. you know where president trump stands let the debate begin. as frank luntz said last night best thing to happen for a candidate would be for donald trump to attack them. donald trump will probably keep that in mind saying unless he wants to elevate somebody that he knows he can beat easier you are elevating putting somebody on the map. suddenly what do you say, sir, or miss about what president trump just said about you? next thing you know they are the number one news story. steve: it elevates them and ultimately though, what donald trump is trying to do is he is trying to minimize them now. meanwhile, our lead story yesterday was the fact that there has been a u.s. attorney for connecticut by the name of john durham.
3:08 am
he has been appointed by -- asked, actually, by the attorney general of the united states to look into the origins of the russia investigation. fox news has learned that apparently he has been working on the case for weeks. that's new. he is also working directly with the department of justice inspector general michael horowitz and that's really good news. that means he is not starting from scratch. horowitz is saying hey, look what we found so far and mr. durham, who is pictured right there can say okay, well, let me go that way. also, is he working with the intel chiefs. evidence is working with chris wray at the fbi. gina haspel at the cia and director of national intelligence dan coats. they are all together trying to figure out if rules were broken. ainsley: joe digenova said this is extremely serious and some people could be locked up as a result. listen. >> durham's appointment means that the already
3:09 am
occurred meetings between the attorney general, the cia director, and the director of national intelligence have now focused on the laser that the core of this conspiracy began with john brennan and ends with john brennan. this is very serious business. and for the first time i now believe that some of these guys are going to go to prison. brian: can you tell how angry they seem to be getting. james comey emergency town halcyon stangtly chirping in the background. watch james baker an attorney. steve: general counsel. brian: general counsel for the fbi. is he out trying to get his story out. we saw the division between comey and mccabe about their stories in the fall of 2016. they differ with each other. enough to see the division between comey and brennan as it relates to the dossier and everything else leading up to the investigation on the trump team. here's john brennan mocking the idea of a deep state. >> i think they are trying to imply and to really, you
3:10 am
know, indicate that there was misuse of authorities. that was not the case. does cia spy? yes. do we spy against foreign adversaries? yes. do we spy against domestic individuals? no, we do not. we work very closely with the fbi. look back at it in 2020 are they going to find there was something that should have been said different have any whatever, they might. i think that's what they are trying to do is uncover something that they will misrepresent as being part of this deep state effort to try to undermine donald trump's election. ainsley: they just started this investigation. he is already making excuses for what they are going to find out. steve: right. ainsley: let the investigation roll out. maybe they won't find anything. meacial is he right. brian: he knows they will. ainsley: exactly. steve: he was talking about we do spy on foreign nations. it all comes down to this, the fisa warrants. when they wrote the fisa law back in the 1970s, it was to surveil people in other countries. what the suggestion is they spied on american citizens
3:11 am
without going through the proper channels. that is the last thing we want, and that's why we want to make sure that when they do surveil people in this country and abroad it's done by the book. and according to a lot of people we've heard from maybe that ain't the case. brian: keep in mind, watch this, the new buzz term it's dangerous for the trump term to be investigating the investigators. it's a danger for our country. ainsley: biden said it. brian: everyone is saying it. jeffrey tuben said that yesterday on another channel. steve: who he is? brian: an attorney who worked for cnn. ainsley: here's the thing it's sad that investigators have to investigate the investigators? how did we get to this point? why don't we trust the doj? why don't we trust the fbi? steve: were there bad actors? we'll find out soon enough. time for the news 6:11 new york time. jillian: good morning. we start with a fox news alert. let's begin here. while you were sleeping the u.s. state department ordering all nonemergency government employees to get out of iraq right away. it applies to both the u.s.

3:18 am
good morning to you. >> good morning. steve: do you buy this that the rebels from houthi are behind. this i do. the larger issue here is this attack, coupled with the one on the saudi oil tankers has iranian fingerprints all over it. it's clear to me they are involved and sending a message here based on these renewed sanction pressures and told their proxy elements in the region to step up attacks particularly targeting saudi's energy infrastructure. the trump administration warned about this planned increase in iranian aggression, especially with their proxy groups. and i think we are starting to see that play out here. forever years the iranians have been covertly supplying weapons and technology to this group known as the houthis which is a militant group that operates out of yemen that includes basically building a drone for them that isn't used for surveillance it's meant to be used as a weapon. that's the same type of drone we are seeing in this case here. steve: okay. my wonder is it looks like
3:19 am
the attack rather than on the border of saudi arabia was deep in the country. do they have that kind of technology where they can fly the drone hundreds of miles or is somebody in the interior of saudi arabia launching the thing that the saudis don't know about? >> well, i think that's what is particularly interesting about this case here and it might be a situation where we haven't seen something like this before. because the specific location of these oil pipelines attacked pretty far well within the country. and the houthis haven't been able to reach that distance before. what happened here is either they conducted these attacks from within saudi territory or they have really significantly increased their drone capability the likes of which we have never seen before. that's possible as well. we know that, based on what we are seeing here, where the houthis have conducted drone attacks before, targeting saudi infrastructure, that the iranians are behind. this and i think that's the danger here because iranians clearly don't care about
3:20 am
upsetting the energy supply, the oil supply and hurting some of this global economy. steve: plus, you have been talking about it for a very long time. these drones are the warfare of the future and it just goes to show you how deadly they can become. >> right. look, the truth is that the weapons of drone technology is no longer reserved a for super powers. any criminal organization or terrorist groups sadly has the ability, as long as they have access to explosives to purchase a drone online and conduct an attack. we have seen that with isis in mosul. this is a different level than we have seen before. i worry this can lead to future attacks and potentially disrupting, you know, trading economic damage more so than physical. steve: that's one of the other worries as well. all right. bret. thank you very much for joining us today. >> thanks, steve. steve: what do you think about that? email us at friends@foxnews.com. meanwhile searching for justice. nearly 18 years after 9/11 and some of the victims still do not have answers. a man who lost his father

3:26 am
in -- i think i mixed that up. your dad died a hero. i'm sorry about that. tell me about your experience. you worked on the 80th floor. >> i worked on the 80th floor of the south tower when the north tower was attacked, we elected to start our way down with the hope of leaving the tower. so i had worked my way down to somewhere in the 60's, the low 60's. and just being tired from walking down in the stairwell i decided to take a break. i went into another company that i certainly was aware of to rest. that's when the south tower was attacked. that room that i was in had collapsed. there was a lot of dust and debris, some fire. i was able to come out of that finish my dissent down. as i just left the building and started walking away that is when the south tower behind me at that point collapsed. i got caught in the dust cloud and the debris of that.
3:27 am
and in running from the tower, which at that point everyone was doing, the getting caught with debris and all that other stuff. i crushed my mid foot and most of my ankle in a fall that i took with some firemen who were trying to help. ainsley: wow, i'm glad you made it out. >> thank you. ainsley: your dad unfortunately didn't. tell us his story. >> we were able to speak to my father on the phone after both planes had hit the towers. and he assured us that he was going to get out of the danger area as soon as he made sure that his office space was cleared. he was only on the 17th floor. we were told by all of his co-workers that he was actually ascending the stairs to go grab some portable two way radios to distribute to the fdny and the port authority police that's unfortunately when the towers fell. the reason we are here today actually is it's been 20 years on. and we know that there are documents that our government has which ties in
3:28 am
and talks about the saudi arabian role on 9/11. we were in court on monday and the doj and fbi are still delaying justice for 9/11 families. and it's a sick feeling. it's disgusting. ainsley: tim, why are they doing that? do you feel like they are protecting the saudi arabian individuals? >> absolutely. they are covering up. one thing i would like to say here, there has never been an indictment or arrest of anyone for the crime of murder. and that's what occurred here. so, with that being said, i would like to say that you know, the fbi is there to help protect us, not be adversarial to us. >> yes. >> what we would like to do is get that cooperation. and, in essence, the only people that have really been restrained here are the families in not being able to get these documents. >> right. ainsley: where are these individuals listed that their names are redacted. >> a lot of them are still walking free in saudi
3:29 am
arabia. there is a third man. there is a document, it's called the 2012 fbi summary router. it is specifically on saudi arain yaps role in 9/11. it's not about canada. it's not about china. it's about saudi arabia. it's a document that the 9/11 review commission did not have the benefit of seeing. it's an investigation that took place in 2012. there is a paragraph there that cites high level saudi officials. we will call him the 30 man because nobody knows what his name is and that guy is still walking free. >> the doj starts throwing around the idea of state secrets. >> right. >> and that is another punch in the gut to the families. in a sense because you start talking about secrets, you're basically hiding something. you are covering something up. ainsley: we did ask them for a statement. >> it's been 18 years and can't look me in the face and give me a legitimate reason anything to do with national security.
3:30 am
it's been 18 years on. give the american people justice. give the families justice. stop taking the side of the saudis. we are americans. we have a right to pursue justice. >> it's unbelievable. >> that's what we are trying. >> for them to stand up in court and the doj to stand up in court and say we are going to invoke state privileges and we are not going to help the american people? what are they doing? what are they scared of? ainsley: i think you have all been through enough. >> absolutely. ainsley: thank you so much. please keep us posted on how this works out. god bless you both. >> thank you. ainsley: keep us updated: brian had interview with the acting and border security. >> this wall, this technology you see securing this area of the border is absolutely essential.
3:31 am
3:33 am
3:34 am
steve: welcome back to "fox & friends." lindsey graham, by the way, is going to be unveiling his immigration plan later today. we have seen the broad contours of it. we will talk about that in half an hour. jared kushner and steven miller went up to capitol hill yesterday to brief republican senators on the white house's plan. so there are a lot of ideas on how to fix the crisis at our southern border. brian: yeah it. is a crisis. just no doubt about it. it's a five alarm fire every single day. they are forced to do things they never did before. press officers and drivers. people are asked to work overtime because nobody is helping out anyone on our southern border. it's got to come from washington. secretary mac mcalleenan, acting, hopefully gets a full time job homeland security and patrick shanahan nominated soon to be confirmed secretary of defense went down to the border, allowed us and our
3:35 am
cameras to go there to tell us exactly how they are working together to solve the problems at our border and here's what they found, here's what they said. brian: we are at the mcallen area of the border with the secretary of defense and homeland security secretary, acting for now. what's going on at the border? >> well, it's priority. this is border security is national security. and we're here to secure the border. and the reason the acting secretary and i are together is we have got to get more aggressively resources in place but cure this permanently. >> you are at the epicenter of both the border security and humanitarian crisis we are facing. this wall, this technology you see securing this area of the border that's essential to us for those criminal elements single adults trying to evade capture what we saw all the
3:36 am
families and unaccompanied children coming across and how we are trying to manage that dual mission. >> agents have so many families coming in their time is spent just processing and moving them along to the immigration cycle when they need to be out on the line securing that border for people trying to evade capture or bring drugs are something more dangerous in. brian: i sangsd mr. secretary decided to give $1.4 billion repurposed from afghanistan towards building a barrier with the army corps of engineers. your response? >> we have got a plan in place now to build. if you taferg, half mile a day between now and october. the money -- you are referencing the 1.5 billion is going continue to crease that even further. we're doing things in months that used to take years. and i feel really good about the progress. brian: we spoke to jeh johnson on our "fox & friends" couch a month ago. he said when he came down and told people the urgency, lawmakers responded.
3:37 am
i don't want to get you involved in politics how would you characterize the response you get from the urgency we see. >> i was on that trip jeh johnson in june of 2014. we had 4400 people in custody on this sector. brian: how many do you have now. >> 8400. this crisis suspect bigger than we faced back then and we need congress' help. brian: you both interact act with the president extensively. when it comes to the border there is a report he blew up with you what's taking so long with this fence? is that true and have you guys felt that frustration from the president? >> well, he didn't blow up. he said "i need better results. deliver more. the situation is extreme, fix it. "that's why we are here. brian: i think this might be an example of where it works. >> yep. brian: you are the one who has been on the line for years is this effective. >> this area of the border you will see concrete base and full 18-foot steel bollard see here where it's even taller. that's what you will see when we expand the area of the border that is a very
3:38 am
effective approach to controlling the flow. >> now the other challenge is the river, the rio grand river. it changes obviously in width and depth. let's go check it out and see what you are against. what's the challenges that come up and down this river? >> so, they are a mess. we have smugglers ease i didn't able to hide in that brush here. there are many areas of the river on our side that looks like that with dense foliage on both sides hard to see what's happening. smugglers will use every technique available. put a car full of drugs and float it across and try to drive out of the river. float family units across. our agents respond to that family and try to protect them and put drugs behind it using diversificationary tactic. we make rescues every single day. brian: can you give mee an idea how homeland and border patrol is helped by the pentagon and defense on the river? >> yeah. in the border security context that kind of surveillance accountability
3:39 am
extends our ability to see. our agents can respond. >> if we are doing monitoring and detection that feigns cr psd can be doing apprehensions. brian: penal say these border patrol or government or administration, this one or the prior one is putting people in cages. what's the reality? >> that's not the reality. we are bringing in people in the processing centers. we are providing medical care. working to provide the best possible situation we can with showers, laundry while we process them and move them into a more appropriate facility. >> you said something a couple of times i got your back. >> yeah. >> you were telling it to men and women in uniform. what do you mean by that? >> look at the burden that they are carrying. look at the load. look at the responsibility that they are assuming. these are great people. they won't let us down. we can't let those people down. kevin and i are not going to let them down. we are going to fix this. >> we wasted three months talking about whether or not there was a crisis or not that ground has shifted. pretty well established there is a crisis. 100,000 people crossing a
3:40 am

border security couldn't do anything. steve: got to go through imminent domain. tied up in the courts. brian: tied up in the courts forever during the bush years. some can't find who owns the land so they can't build. they need the land owner to be cooperative and work with the country to secure the border. if the land owners don't, the border patrol can't do anything. unless they go to court and it could take 15, 20 years. steve: it was interesting to hear acting secretary shanahan say that the president wants results. is he frustrated that it's taken so long. is he not the only one. a lot of people want to see things get fixed. but coming up on a big election and nobody wants to give donald trump a win on the other side. ainsley: i'm glad to hear him answer that question. it was like oh, this is what i talked to the president about. this was our conversation. steve: results now. hurry up. brian: he says i'm used to working in business. people wants to hear results they don't want to hear about problems. that's whether you have an engineer executive as secretary of defense. that's what you will get. he cuts through stuff real quick. he doesn't want to take any credit he just wants to get

when it comes to type 2 diabetes, are you thinking about your heart? well, i'm managing my a1c, so i should be all set. actually, you're still at risk for a fatal heart attack or stroke. that's where jardiance comes in. it reduces the risk of dying from a cardiovascular event for adults who have type 2 diabetes and known heart diseas. that's why the american diabetes association recommends the active ingredient in jardiance. and it lowers a1c? with diet and exercise.
3:45 am
jardiance can cause serious side effects including dehydration, genital yeast or urinary tract infections, and sudden kidney problems. ketoacidosis is a serious side effect that may be fatal. a rare, but life-threatening, bacterial infection in the skin of the perineum could occur. stop taking jardiance and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms of this bacterial infection, ketoacidosis, or an allergic reaction. do not take jardiance if you are on dialysis or have severe kidney problems. taking jardiance with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. so, what do you think? now i feel i can do more to go beyond lowering a1c. ask your doctor about jardiance today. jillian: good morning back with headlines now of the pharmaceutical company behind oxycontin accused of targeting veterans and the elderly. pennsylvania the latest of 39 states to sue purdue pharma over the nation's deadly opioid epidemic.

3:48 am
end up on the government plan. they say they would keep a roll for employer provided health coverage. any employer, an individual could go to the government plan and the employer would have to pay a fee. well, after a third, half of employees end up on the government plan, the employer is going to say you know the heck with it, get me out of here. and everybody is going to end up being on the government plan and nobody is going to be able to buy private healthcare. brian: here is the plan. employers could offer private insurance as long as it meet standards. pay a portion toward the cost if they join a public program. premiums and out-of-pocket costs would be based on income. sounds sound, doesn't it? >> sounds nice, yes. but one of the sponsors for medicare for america january 10 years ago during the debate on obamacare said the so-called public option would lead to single payer. we know where that's where
3:49 am
folks want to take us. it's a question of they view private health insurance as a political obstacle we can't get 180 million people off of their employer plans right away so we will just have to phase them out over time. ainsley: chris, what is the solution? what do we need to do. >> ultimately put doctors and patients back in charge. this plan ultimately would result in thousands of direct primary care physicians being able to close up their practices. we have a physician shortage. we need to be encouraging private healthcare and the practice of medicine not trying to put doctors out of business or under the government's thumb. brian: ask any physician who takes medicare they need supplemental to make their fees and make their costs. we are going to run out of doctors, certainly general practitioners and the seniors will actually lose out on medicare in the long run. this is folly. thanks for pointing it out. i look forward to seeing your book, chris. >> thank you very much. ainsley: if you want to read that op-ed go to the "wall

4:01 am
applications from northern triangle residents in contiguous countries. must be filed at processing centers outside of the u.s. steve: in other words, if you are in honduras you will be able to apply in honduras. brian: or mexico. ainsley: allow families to be held together in the u.s. while they make asylum claims. steve: that's the flores rule going from 20 days to 100 days. brian: they say they can deal with 60 days but 100 is a great way to start. lindsey graham will roll this out at 10:00. ainsley: have to speed it up. 500 immigration judges. help process these families. they can't do it in 20 days they say. 100 days give them enough time. brian: only 7% qualify. they just need their day to be heard. word sent back you will not be able to stay. judges are ready. financing has to come. that number create unload the three year wait.

steve: finally unaccompanied minors from central america will be returned to their country of origin after they have been stopped. ainsley: we won't have to pay to house them, right? brian: we have to pay to transport them. steve: we have to pay for a lot of stuff. lindsey graham says his plan would stop 90% of the incoming migrants. okay. so that's his proposal. meanwhile, the house went up to capitol hill yesterday, steven miller and jared kushner and they talked to republican senators and they presented their plan, which would also change the flores rule from 20 days to longer, apply for asylum at home, things like that. move legal immigration to merit-based system and the preference would be regarding legal immigration for it to be high skilled educated workers. now, keep in mind. apparently some of the republican senators who heard the white house's plan. they said it's aimed at rallying the party before the election because they are realistic and they understand that with nancy
4:03 am
pelosi in charge of the house, the chances of some sort of immigration bill coming out of the house are slim to none. brian: but, here's the thing. they know it's a huge problem. congressman quay area was with me at the border. he is not optimistic can he get something done. that's long term. this is short-term. if you want to know how bad it is if nancy pelosi and senator schumer came i think of them as human beings would do something. they don't want to see how bad it is. ainsley: they are put in a bad position, aren't they? if they vote for this, then it gives the president a win. steve: a win. brian: it doesn't have to be. it can be a co-win. ainsley: it should be. brian: both sides can show they are coming together for a common cause. meanwhile, i can't show you everything but i wanted to relay this inside the facility is a commands center and there is. steve: where. >> at the mccallum center rio grand sector looking now
4:04 am
outside of the commands center. looking at 360. we are going to leave this and show you what they are dealing right w. right now that was 8200 people there let's listen and you could see what's going on. we can't show faces. watch. >> you are looking at a facility that should be handling 300, maybe 350 people max. it is now handling multiple thousands of people. take a look without giving away anybody's identity. people being held picked up off the border being held outside and inside. they are picking up thousands by the day. and they are really absolutely no place to keep them. in fact, this whole tent complex came up in the last 36 hours. because there is just no place to put them. what you are not going to be able to see is the cells around the perimeter because they are separated between the kids and the adults and how they came in. it's an untenable situation. not getting any better.
4:05 am
border patrol is being relieved by national guard and army and still there is not enough people. brian: do you see over my shoulder those cells that's 300 people. and people just standing there like this all day. they are just standing there they get fed and cleaned and treated with respect. you have others. a bunch of men with nothing to do all day they have to worry about security. other men walking around with nonlethal weapons in case there is some type of uprising and little kids sitting there with their moms and other families but you have to protect. you can't just put a bunch of strange men with little kids and women. steve: they are in the custody of the federal government we have got to take care. brian: people say fences huge warehouses. they set up barriers between groups. and just picture. this yesterday, over 2,000 people came. the day before over 2,000 people came. when i was there 2200. that facility is supposed to hold 400 and maybe can hold 800 now has 8,400.
4:06 am
ainsley: do the migrants wait on the mexican side until our border agents say come on into the facility. >> no. they walk right up the path and say take me. and they all speak spanish. and they all have different stories. the ones that i saw that you will see tomorrow, mostfully honduras. and then i saw a few dozen come up from cuba. ainsley: all those people outside you couldn't show faces on that monitor they are all waiting. brian: nothing to do. ainsley: they are waiting to be asked if so we can process them? brian: they will be put on a bus, fingerprinted, put on a bus and just sent out into the middle of the country. this is ladies and gentlemen catch and release. because congress won't do a thing. the border patrol has no choice. catch, release in 20 days. coming to a city near you. steve: to the points that the democrats are not going to help the republicans in any way. yesterday the house democrats moved to block the pentagon from reprogramming any of the money. you were talking to acting
4:07 am
secretary of defense reprogramming money. ainsley: they are not going to do anything until after the election? steve: it doesn't look like it. otherwise, they will give donald trump a win. this is one of his core issues. if he is able to say in the run-up to the election look, change the rules, you are welcome. that helps him and the democrats don't want that. ainsley: we have another year and a half until the election. the democrats, the voters, especially the independents are going to say there is a major problem on the border. democrats aren't doing anything. brian: here is where you are right, ainsley. there are 70 democrats sitting in trump won districts. they have to show that they can be effective legislators. they have zero to show except for investigations that never get off the ground and a refusal to act in the best interest of the country. that gives the president -- the president's party the best shot at flipping the house back. and if it's going to come down to politics and you don't really care about the southern border because you are more concerned about your political future, understand you are hurting yourself. steve: but that's politics in 2019.
4:08 am
unfortunately. brian: puts those seats in jeopardy. ainsley: how much they hate this president they are willing to risk it because they don't want to give him a win. steve: i think you are probably right. more on that a little later. in the meantime 7:08 in new york city. jillian joins us once again. jillian: that's right. good morning. let's begin with this fox news alert. while you were sleeping, the u.s. state department ordering all nonemergency government employees to get out of iraq right away. it applies to both the u.s. embassy in baghdad and u.s. consulate inne in err bill. visited baghdad to give assurances america would support the nation despite tensions with iran. u.s. citizens also being warned not to travel to iraq. the nation's strictest abortion bill is one step closer to becoming law. alabama senators overwhelmingly passing a near total ban overnight. republican governor kay ivey says she will read the full final bill before deciding whether to sign it. the law would prevent women from getting an abortion

i was inches i wanted to scoop him up and hold him and tell him it was okay. he learned that if he kept trying and kept working at it, he could accomplish anything. and that was the most amazing part of it. he learned so much, you know, the teammates there. the love from everybody, in eric from bobby, the owner, to the teammates and the family. everybody there was incredible. you know, he learned about love, he learned about team spirit, everything. it was just incredible. brian: hey, phoenix, i see you wearing a yellow belt there congratulations. you earned it. you watched us show that video and i know you have seen it before. what are you thinking? tell everyone what you are thinking when you watch yourself on video try and eventually break it. >> really good. but i like myself all the time when i break boards. brian: you like yourself. what was it like hearing your name chanted and all the people hug you at the
4:29 am
end? >> very good and i was crying at the rest. ainsley: you could tell you were trying so hard and we have all been there. you try and you try and you get tired and you can't do it. and then you finally did. what made you keep going? >> my foot. [laughter] brian: eric, what is your philosophy when it comes to karate at this young age? >> just have you got to motivate them. self-motivation is very, very big with the little ones. make sure they are in to it. explain things to them to a point where they can understand it and apply it and make sure they can teach it do you know what i mean? it's really hard with the little ones, man. it takes a lot of patience and love and i feel like our has that. my dad has been doing it forever. he owns the place. it's an entire family. not just come in and pay your payment and here is your class. we are really a big family. i think that video shows
4:30 am
you. you have people from all over. black kids, white kids, spanish kids, indian kids. all different parents from different background and all there for one purpose. and that's to make these kids succeed and get better every single day. steve: the good thing is that video is going to live on forever. >> amen. steve: we're curious, tom, what are you going to do with the i can boards? >> this is in his room. any time that he says i can't do something this board is there to remind him if he puts his mind to it, he, his brothers, thomas, phoenix, vaughn, i got five kids, it's crazy. [laughter] you put your heart into it, you put your mind to it, you can do anything. i can is our motto. brian: eric, he will be in the october began okay gone, oc. >> i'm sure. ainsley: congratulations. what a great job. >> he is doing.

4:46 am
steve: today she is taking it a step further where when she will announce a plan to take executive action on 100th day to ban the imports of certain weapons if elected president. ainsley: here to react is fox news contributor katie pavlich. >> good ton here. to be here. ainsley: is this going to help or hurt her. >> when it comes to a national election it will hurt her. she is talking about her whole platform is reducing gun violence when you look at the details and we haven't seen exact details of her plan but we know what her stance has been in the past. when she talks about good ideas being on her desk, she is talking about a gun ban. she is not talking about safety measures. she is not talking about giving law enforcement more ability to prosecute people who are using guns incorrectly and who are already breaking the law. and you would think as a former prosecutor she would be interested in enforcing the laws already on the books. but when she talks about a ban on imports of semiautomatic rifles, she is talking about cosmetic features not following the
4:47 am
problem. the majority of crimes in this country carried out with guns are hand guns. they are not rifles. more people are killed every year by hand, clubs, hammers than semiautomatic rifles yet we keep hearing this talking point from democrats like kamala harris that they mis of law abiding americans. so it is an attack on second amendment rights and it doesn't solve the issue that she claims to be going after. steve: it sounds like she is going after the ar-style weapons. and the campaign says that they want them banned because they aren't suitable or readily adaptable for sporting purposes. >> that's just not true and they also are used in a number of cases that you can point to across the country in self-defense cases. that church shooting down in texas was stopped by a man who had an ar-15 in his vehicle. so when you talk about ar-15 style, that gives you broad authority to ban all kinds of cosmetic features that actually don't do anything
4:48 am
to change the function of the firearm. and the way for them to use it as a talking point politically in early states for democratic primary voters. when it comes to talking to the rest of the country, of course people want gun safety. of course people want background checks. we have them. the fbi does 23, 24 million background check as year on firearm sales. when it comes to actually solving problems. taking away the second amendment rights of americans and claiming that you are solving a problem by banning semiautomatic rifles and not actually going after criminals who reoffend keeping bad guys who violate gun laws already in the books in jail and prison and going after people who are just using them in their daily lives for either sporting or self-defense, that is going to be a problem for her. ainsley: you take await guns from the good people, the bad people are still going to get their guns and good people arpts going to have a way to defend themselves. >> that's exactly the point on ban of imports of ar-15 style or assault weapon-style guns or parts
4:49 am
is that criminals aren't going to pay attention to any kind of import or export ban. ainsley: right. >> law abiding americans will. the point is a lot of semiautomatic rifles are made in america anyway. a lot of people will have access to them. steve: we will hear more about her pla plan later today. thank you so much. steve: baseball legend cal ripken jr. says practice does not always make for perfect. ainsley: is he sharing that life lesson and others that he has lived by when he joins us live next ♪ i said boys are back in town ♪ the boys are back in town ♪ the boys are back in town ♪ the boys are back in town ♪ play it cool and escape heartburn fast with new tums chewy bites cooling sensation. ♪ tum tum tum tums

baseball legend and best known as the iron man who went to work for a record 2632 straight games. breaking lieu gehrig's consecutive game streak. now 19-time all star is reflecting on his career and offering lessons to help you in your life of what he picked up now that he is in the real world where you don't have to wear a uniform every day. in new book "just show up" and other enduring values of iron day man. call, when did you realize what you us learned in baseball could apply real life. >> i always knew if i had a long baseball career i was going to do something else afterwards. i was always fascinated by business. the principles that you spend your whole life learning and applying in baseball definitely apply to business. a lot of trial and error and mistakes are made. but we have been very successful in two aspects of my life, our kid's business which were the leading youth baseball business and also the foundation. so the principles that apply on the field certainly
4:54 am
apply, you know, with us off the field. brian: right. so if you show up and put in the effort you will get success. you say part of life is adjusting. if you sit there and try hard but don't adjust to the pitch and the speed of the pitch or what he is righty or lefty throwing hard or soft or deception, you will not be successful. >> you can practice all you want. once you get into the game and pitcher is doing something to you, you better make some sort of adjustment. i always think dad's influence was really good. practice makes perfect not necessarily. perfect practice makes perfect he used to say. it was build b. building good habits. once you go into the game have you got to learn from each and every day. learn from the game and apply that learning to the next day. brian: you also say street shostrengthshows character. not 3,000 hits. you went up there day after day? >> when i think of the streak i don't think of the big number. i just think about i was there for my teammates each and every day. part of the value of the streak is that you're accountable to your
4:55 am
teammates and accountable to the fans. you need to meet the challenge of today. that's really all i look at. brian: can you see that in sports? do you see character being shaped in sports in your two new businesses? and do you worry that sometimes parents are too involved? >> well the culture always changes a little bit and you have to be aware of that the idea you can't accomplish anything unless you show up. so you need to be there. and it's going to be good days and it's going to be bad days. the character is really built when times get tough. then the guys that show up is amazing. sometimes you sit around a table and trying to solve a problem and you need your whole team there and a couple people are missing you go i wonder where they are. you need to show up especially in those moments. brian: i came down and saw the mini stadiums that you built up over there and i see how much you care about the kids. probably doesn't matter if they turn out to be major leaguers. when this video came on our show yesterday that we just did the interview i thought about you. this is really what you are about. it's not so much making contact. it trying.
4:56 am
yet this little kid 6 years old and trying to get his yellow belt. everyone out there instead of judging him, they are rooting for him. in the end he breaks it. i thought about you through that. >> it takes a lot of courage to do that anyway. you know, to try anything in front of people. i think a lot of parents when they watch their kids play they kind of cringe. watch them experience the trial and errors and then once you experience the trial and errors then a of a sudden you get to that point of success it makes it all worth it. brian: nothing happens if you don't show up. you have got to be willing to fail and that takes courage. >> one of the great things about the streak was we heard about all kinds of people streaks. everybody thinks in those terms i have never missed a day at work at the plant or i have perfect teansdz through school. those values mean something. brian: like magic johnson and other greats you decide to be just as successful in business as you were in the game. >> my pleasure. brian: congratulations on the book just show up. from the pioneer man to the

5:01 am
president was doing yesterday. one of the freight things happened to our country, the revitalization and discovery of natural energy. america is the number one producer. what this president has done to cut back regulation to allow our energy sector to flourish. they juiced up the peel in louisiana yesterday. he took some time, believe it or not to go off the prompter and ad-lib. ainsley: he was taking a shot at democrats on the other side. there are 23 democratic openfuls. he narrowed it down to four. here is what he said yesterday. >> you look at the competition. you sort of dream of competition like that. who knows. i have bud edge edge, i get them all. beto. beto is falling fast. what the hell happened? four weeks ago he said i was made for this. he was made for it. he was made to fall like a rock. what happened to him? he is trying to restart his
5:02 am
campaign. that generally doesn't work out too well. political geniuses, when you have to restart your campaign history says that does not work out well. i don't know what the hell happened to biden. that doesn't look like the guy i knew. what happened to him? bernie, bernie is crazy. bernie is crazy. bernie has a lot more energy than biden. you never know. you have some beauties there. 350 million people. that is the best we could do. steve: there you go. he mocked the green new deal. he told the plant workers they would probably lose their jobs with the green new deal. nonetheless, president is sipping single out four competitors for the race for presidency. he is trying to do what he did last time, to try to minimize them. to say what the hell happened to joe biden? you know, there is an item in today's "new york times" talks about how some of his advisors,
5:03 am
the president's advisors, people talked to them they say that joe biden is the one that they fear the most in the general election. brian: could be, could in fact be the case because he swamped the field. we don't hear much about bernie sanders these days. at this stage of the general he has about 20 points on everyone. i don't buy the fact he is gaffe-free. what he said about china makes absolutely no sense, being a competitor. he characterized what the president is trying to do with china is flat-out wrong. he said the president is trying to rebalance the trade deficit. no, he isn't. he has hard fast principles about rebalancing a relationship with includes stealing our intellectual property. when somebody yells out from his audience, some anti-trump slogans. brian: like he is illegitimate as a president, instead of pushing back in john mccain fashion, he joins in. listen. >> he is an illegitimate president in my mind. my biggest fear is that he will do it again with the help of
5:04 am
vlda, his best pal. we'll be stuck for six more years of this guy. that is terrifying. >> would you be my vice president candidate? you're absolutely right. now they have an investigation of the investigators who were investigating whether or not vladmir putin and russians engaged in trying to affect our election. give me a break. gosh, almighty. ainsley: conservatives apre, give me a break. i can't believe we have to investigate the investigators. it shouldn't be like that. but conservatives want to find out how this all started. over last two years millions of dollars were spent. investigation went on and on. president was cleared. brian: his son hunter biden will be examined. ukraine is looking into the fund he was involve. with for him to blow that off, attack rudy giuliani for bringing it up. he is not paying attention. 21 other people will compete for
5:05 am
the nomination, bringing up what hunter biden was doing or not doing in ukraine. steve: first time joe biden had gone to new hampshire, for him to say donald trump is an illegitimate president. that feeds the base. there is a demographic in the political left that believes that. and when he says it, they go see, i knew i liked that guy for a reason. from biden to beto, remember, beto o'rourke was on the cover of "vanity fair," he was, when he first launched it sounded like it would be easy street to the white house for him but he has had a lot of problems. he hasn't really stood for anything. hasn't talked about any policies that are taking fire. on "the view," he talked about the "vanity fair" thing, saying born to be president, probably would like a do-over on both. >> are those mistakes? would you say those are mistakes, being on the cover of "vanity fair?"
5:06 am
elitist? >> yeah. i think it reinforces that perception of privilege and that headline said i was born to be in this, the article attempting to say i felt my calling was in public service. no one is born to be president of the united states america, least of all me. brian: what an embarrassing appearance for someone wanted to be president. ainsley: i don't understand why he was changing his tune. he wasn't really well-known around the country. "vanity fair" puts him out of all three 23 democratic hopefuls on the cover and now he regrets it? headline, i want to be in it. man, i'm just born to be in it. brian: he has $40 million raised because everyone was so encouraged about the good showing he had against ted cruz in texas. he could deliver texas, we already have california and new york we win the election. the problem he is competing against 21 other people, not ted
5:07 am
cruz. ainsley: doesn't that show you joy behar saying that is elitist for you being on the magazine, i agree. steve: the fact he was elevated, he is a rising star in the democratic party after he lost to ted cruz, that says, had he won, it would be one thing. one other thing about the race, in "the new york times" today, a trump campaign spokesperson said they view the democratic field as one big, this is the key word, socialist organism with more than 20 heads, joe biden included. brian: brad parscale will be here with our live audience at the end of the week. he will give us an idea from the trump perspective how they are doing. ainsley: meantime jillian has headlines. jillian: let's start off with the fox news alert. we just learned that the tsa is planning to deploy hundreds of volunteers to the u.s. border, department workers to attorneys to air marshals could be sent to deal with the crisis.
5:08 am
agency says no front line resources will be used. the deployment will not impact air travel or safety. lindsey graham plans to unveil his plan to reduce the asylum backlog today. also breaking right now, while you were sleeping the u.s. state department ordering all non-emergency government employees to get out of iraq right away. it a plies both to the u.s. embassy in baghdad and the u.s. consulate. secretary of state mike pompeo visited baghdad last week to give as shunses that the u.s. would support the nation despite tensions with iran. american citizens also being warned not to travel to iraq. today family and friends will say good bye to the teen hero killed in the colorado school shoot buildings. kendrick castillo was gunned down trying to tackle the shooter. another heroic student, joshua jones, described how they worked together to disarm the gunman. >> he rushed in.
5:09 am
i pulled him to the ground. kendrick got the gun out of him. kendrick shoved him against the wall. then i asked brendan to give me my phone. i called my mom because she was a, she always has been a problem solver for me. reporter: incredible teenagers. the two suspects are expected to be formally charged on murder and attempted murder charges. a little boy has his prayers answered. watch this heartwarming reunion. >> oh. >> hey, buddy. reporter: that is national guard sergeant osborn coming home from deployment to surprise his little brother at school. the boy prayed for his brother's safe return to utah two or three times a day. jillian. i just got a note from peter doocy who is up in new hampshire
5:10 am
covering the presidential. he saw his first new hampshire yard sign of the cycle. who do you think, which candidate do you think it's for, first yard sign in new hampshire that peter doocy has seen. ainsley: president trump? brian: buttigieg? >> tulsi 2020. ainsley: really? brian: tulsi gabbard. we'll see if she gets momentum of she tends to go in the middle. has the veteran background. steve: she has a sign. we brought you the story in the last hour so many of you commented on, we wanted to bring it again. a little boy down in the orlando area. he is a white boy karate. ainsley: he was? steve: doing the white belt to elevate to the yellow. the problem as you can see right here he cannot break the board. he tried four or five times to break the board. and he started crying. ainsley: bless his heart. 5 years old. i wanted to scoop him up his dad
5:11 am
way sassing. he tried and tried again. finally he was able to break the board. >> hit it hard. [shouting] >> hit with the heel. yes you can do it. >> i can't do it. >> yes you can do it.
