rules to follow at list in england. wanted to approve outfits and demand recording. jillian: what? crazy. have a good day. ♪ damages, dance, dance, it's dance ♪ creeping up on you, so just, dance, dance, dance, come on. ♪ all those things i should do. steve: it's a beautiful morning in midtown, manhattan, it 75 degrees. it is clear, currently, and it is wednesday. ainsley: that's true. if you are bringing the kids to new york before they go back to school you have got to do the trolls experience. this is the song from trolls. you probably know that well. if you have little ones you know that. this song is on repeat in my car in my house. the trolls experience take them through and gets the makeup like poppy or whatever character they like and get to go through and dance to that song. it's a good idea.

pete: maybe you could do it, steve. steve: my kids are grown up. my kids are now my designated drivers. ainsley: you are welcome to take hayden, would you like to take her one day. steve: i'm not doing anything after 9:00 a.m. pete: what a wonderful phase in life. steve: reason i was gone. my daughter sally had engagement party with her new in-law family. it was absolutely wonderful. pete: like the new in-laws? steve: love them. had a little trouble getting out there. thanks, delta. ainsley: filling in for brian. glad you are here. pete: thank you for having me. i appreciate it. steve: meanwhile i missed a lot while i was gone. pete: including this morning a fox news alert. fbi agents expected to sweep the jail where jeffrey epstein died of an apparent suicide. ainsley: reports have surfaced that the two guards that were supposed to be watching him might have been asleep on the job. steve: what could possibly go wrong?

griff jenkins joins us live from washington and, griff, washington is getting involved. >> they sure are. steve, ainsley, pete, good morning. two force tasked on every 30 minutes checking on the most high profile prisoner in the country it. turns out they were asleep on the job for up to three hours and suspected now of falsifying the logs showing the contrary. if true, constitutes a federal crime. suggested video shows they never made the rounds in questions. those officers on administrative leave pending an investigation. it comes as fox news learns attorney general barr has reassigned the warden to a northeast regional office. the doj announcing his replacement. acting warned of the fcc new york. former fbi national spokesman john onrelli had

this to say. >> i have been around jails in my 21 year career with the fbi. alfa sets of government you will find various levels of incompetence. it's not just these two guards. it's who is implementing these policies. who is supervising. griff: there is a lot of information coming quickly in the last few days. an official report should tell us more if it's made public and after action team is at the facility expected today where they will try to determine whether employees were following protocols and information why he was removed from suicide watch to begin with steve, as you mentioned, lawmakers in washington on both sides of the aisle are demanding answers. of course, we knew the house judiciary committee has sent a letter to the bureau of prisons wanting an investigation. now it looks like the senate judiciary committee to get involved as well. guys? steve: all right, griff, thank you for the live report from our nation's capital. because there are all these discrepancies between what happened, that's why there

are all these crazy conspiracy theories out there. ainsley: there are so many. steve: right? ainsley: one of them was the russians. when i was reading all about this i want to bring you new news. gloria allred is representing some of these women. all minors at the time. because of the child victims act in new york it takes effect this week it opens up a one year window all these ladies if they were victimized as veteran to be chie able to come back. one of the things that struck my interest, for tran that site where can you write things on it. the new york fire department is investigating because a first responder allegedly leaked that there was going to be a suicide. he was going to commit suicide. that was put on there at 8:16 a.m. on saturday morning. that's 40 minutes before the post broke the news that epstein had killed himself. pete: quite possible. sometimes the simplest explanation is the most likely. and now that we learn that there were potentially folks

asleep. again, these are all reports and falsified logs. i mean, i managed guys who were guards at guantanamo bay. if you do shift after shift after shift in the middle of the night, day after day after day. steve: it's exhausting. pete: sometimes guys fall asleep. replacement guards are not. we called it pencil whipping. i was asleep for three hours but did i this log and this log and this log. that's possible that they said oh man we were asleep for three hours. we better log in that we checked even if we didn't and someone is dead on your watch. steve: that's why the fbi is investigating because falsifying logs could be a federal crime. pete: of course. steve: that's why they are on administrative leave. that's why they have reassigned the warned there former acting attorney general for the united states matt whitaker says the investigation isn't over until, ainsley, you were talking about, this the victims get their justice. >> i am sure that right now bill barr is just waiting

for the next shoe to drop to find owhat else happened at this facility. this case is not over just because of this death. you know, we just had a raid a search warrant was justices cuted on this compounds could generated more evidence. it could not uncover just more victims but co-conspirators. get some justice and prosecutors continue to press forward with the charges as to whoever is culpability. because these are inexcusable and we have to have them fully prosecuted. ainsley: gloria all red said they are proceeding against his estate it's worth $559 million. pete: you have to do an audit to say what he said he was worth is what he is worth. steve: indeed. downer in san antonio, texas, bad news because apparently in the middle of the night, monday into tuesday, somebody took a gun and fired through the window at another ice facility this

is the fourth ice attack in just about a month. we have a graphic that's going to show you. for instance august 13th, san antonio, washington, d.c.,that comb marks washington and aurora, colorado. what is going on? why are people taking shots, literally and figuratively at ice? pete: in this case it was a professional building one floor a couple offices which were held by ice. the shooter intentionally targeting those levels and those windows. in this case it was not some random incident. steve, you talked about it in washington, d.c. protesters blocked the interest in tacoma, washington in july hurled molotov cocktails in aurora, colorado and took down the u.s. flag. steve: that is the window in san antonio. local reports say a man was arrested in connection with it. it is assumed that the person who did the shooting was across the highway shooting at it. but then the fbi denied that

was the case. saying that he is not being held. we are looking for clarity. ainsley: to your point, people are wondering how do you know this is ice related? should we really say they were targeting ice. spokespeople say yesterday absolutely this was hot random we know because of where they were targeting. pete: we are not here tore do what the left does which is to blame a group for acts of violence they acted on their own twisted view of the world. what we see about ice and accomplishing ice and agents of evil has led people to believe that this is where we need to focus our efforts. steve: daniel bible who is the san antonio field office director he said this regarding that pete. political rhetoric and misinformation that various politicians, media outlets and groups recklessly disseminate to the american people regarding the ice mission only serve to these

violent acts. this public discord shrouds our critical law enforcement function and unnecessarily puts our officers' safety at risk. steve: it was 3:00 in the morning. nobody was inside the office, i don't believe, at the time. ainsley: it's very heated and emotional issue especially in san antonio. you have a loft people come over from mexico and are worried that they are going to be sent back. so, that's where julian castro is from and what his brother put on twitter the other day. julian castro running on a democratic platform very emotional to the folks in texas. pete: you are right, steve. i have to double-check it. it's a 24-hour facility. there may have been one or two people there. a couple of inches could have changed it to the death of a federal agent. steve: again, in this particular case, it could have been random thing it could have been cointsly incidental that it was the ice office that they tried to blow the window out.

ainsley: ron vitiello said the same thing. >> this is not good. i'm grateful no one was hurt in this incident and also want to praise the local authorities there in san antonio who quickly caught the suspect. these are good people and shouldn't be blamed for the laws that are on the books. pete: we have said it before. we will say it again. if you don't like the laws, change the laws. ainsley: they did in texas. remember in san antonio when they wanted to put the chick-fil-a in the airport, they changed the laws there they made national chick-fil-a day and chick-fil-a, you know, things have changed there in texas when it comes to chick-fil-a. a lot of people don't want to go there because they don't like theirance stance. a lot of people love it. closed on sundays. go go through the airport on sunday and crave chick-fil-a you can't eat there because it's closed. steve: chick-fil-a is in the news because dan cathy who apparently promised his

father that the family would always be faithful to the upbringing that they had in their family that they would be closed on sundays and they would continue their philanthropy work. ainsley: he says he signed a covenant with his father. steve: here is part of that covenant. we will be faithful to christ's lordship in our lives. we will prayerfully seek his leadership in all major decisions that impact our family and others. our family roles as spouses to our lifelong meats. parents to our children and loving aunts and uncles will be our priority. chick-fil-a was just announced as the number one fast food chain in america accord to the american satisfaction. ainsley: i heard carley reporting on this story. chick-fil-a loses a billion dollars a year because they are closed on sunday. they give a lot to the church and a lot to charity. as a christian i think it's beautiful. migrate grandmother was one of those who refused to do anything on sunday. she wouldn't watch -- she calls them the stories.

she wouldn't watch soap operas, she wouldn't play cards. they wouldn't drink. she was so traditional and followed what she thought was the law what the bible said. i think it's beautiful. it's hard to this day and age because people think the bottom line, they think about profits. you know on sundays, it's a day -- should be a day of rest. it's a day we do lawn work or laundry or whatever. pete: it's a great point. part of the covenant was not taking the company public. because when you do that you are beholden to shareholders. could make a ton more money working on sundays. why people love chick fay lay because of the values and great food and sauce. left demonizes them. you are not a faith-filled company you are a bigoted company and target them time and time again. reinstills my faith in this country when you see how successful they have been people respond to the truth of that company.

ainsley: reminds me of the equinox story a lot of people wanted to pull out of manipulatmembership soulcycle ad equinox. some people don't agree with their philosophies but they are still going to eat it because it's that good. steve: if you travel to new york city in the summer months on winter months and stop by the fox news channel across the street is the single midtown chick-fil-a. ainsley: grab it and come get a hug from janice right here. pete: fills like a chick-fil-a morning. ainsley: have to buy chick-fil-a this morning. we will do it. steve: abc delicious. jillian: let's start off with this story out of ohio. new updates. a frenktsd dayton shooter who bought body armor a 100 round magazine and parts of the gun used in that killing spree is due in court today. iman collie lied on federal

firearms forms which buying a gun for himself. it's unclear if he knew about his friend's plans. meanwhile police release new surveillance video showing the moments before the deadly shooting. the gunman seen arriving at the bar with his sister and friend. he hangs out in the area for a half hour before going back to his car with a backpack with rifle and body armor. 14-year-old girl killed by falling rocks at glasure national park. the utah was driving through hit rocks shattering the windshield. parents and two others in the car were hurt. rocks ranged from fist size to an average baseball size. confusion growing in russia after deadly nuclear explosion. the russian military ordered people living nearby to evacuate but called off that order one day later. five scientists were killed in last week's failed test of a suspected nuclear power

i don't know, frankly, that the democrats will get us there. steve: there you have got president trump yesterday out in new jersey saying he is looking into gun control measures in the wake of the el paso and dayton shootings. in a "wall street journal" op-ed, guns and the do something fallacy our next guest argues there is only so much the federal government can do. bill mcgurn wrote that op-ed is he a "wall street journal" board member, fox news contributor. he got up with us early he is with us here at 6:20 in the morning. >> good morning. steve: after something like this happens we always hear people say come on, do something. the question is what can they do. >> exactly. that was the chant governor divine was down in dayton the day of the killing and people started chanting this and everyone just assumes that there is something to do. we need a little more modesty. the first principle is if you are going to tell me this is going to stop future mass shootings, whatever measure you are for, you should first be able to prove had it been in place

it would stop previous mass shootings, almost none of it can pass that test. steve: you say you think we ought to let states and localities experiment with giving community leaders the ability to act. it starts at home. >> absolutely it starts at home. it's also, look, if you think -- this isn't goods going to be solved by the fbi or a federal database, it's going to be stopped by some teacher or some friend of someone, the girl who day of thed the dayton shooter said the first day he showed her some video. steve: body cam. >> they have the intelligence, right? we have been stripping these people for the past 50 years to do anything. i would like to see a little more experiment at the local and state level before we adopt something that we don't know is going to work. steve: right now we heard the president talking about background checks. we heard the thing about the red flag warning laws. is that a road we should be looking at? >> look. the two guys in el paso and in dayton passed background checks. you are not going to fail it

unless have you something in your background, which they didn't have. so, again, that's not something that would have stopped these last shootings, right? the red flag laws, i'm not as opposed if it's at the local level or state level where they can try it and so forth. but, look, also, the idea that other mental health experts are going to focus on pattern and you have this fine distinction between someone who is troubled and someone who is going to be a mass shooter. it's silly. steve: in washington there is a lot of pressure on the president and there are reports that ivanka trump is quietly speaking to lawmakers right now about trying to do something. do you think the administration will find something that they will go along with that they feel like the nra can go along with too. >> i hope not because the president says he is open to it. this is what is making people cynical. every time there is a shooting we do something and it doesn't work. and, again, i think a little

more honesty and empowering -- i said mrs. clinton had it right her title it takes a village. not her village with the hud and the department of education running things. steve: that's the federal village. >> the real village people know and they can make these distinctions between who is really a menace. who is really troubled. i would like to see more that empowers them to kind of pull triggers and to trigger warnings of people and so forth. steve: so, if you were going to give, you know, because you do say let states and local governments try to figure out restrictions. >> right. steve: or things to do, what would that look like? >> i don't think we know. i think some version of red flag in the sense of temporarily relieving some of their firearms, if they are -- you know, they are dabbling in violent web pages and so forth. steve: extremism? >> i think, also, the critics of red flag laws

have a point. there has to be due process. and it has to be up for review so that you can't just, you know, call people crazy and say -- i mean, the president was saying maybe chris cuomo should be red flagged for his outbeyers the other day. that's a danger. do we want someone -- do we want some government authority saying you wore a maga hat you are obviously a white supremacist you don't get a gun or we have to take the one you have from you. we have to be careful. we have to acknowledge we can't rely on the police to get there right away. the dayton police within 30 seconds shot this man. he killed all these people before then. steve: it's really something. read all about it in the "wall street journal." also, bill is going to be hosting today's deep dive on fox nation. go to foxnation.com to figure it all out. >> thank you. steve: thank you. you are a busy guy today. meanwhile the california highway patrol officer shot and killed while on duty.

pete: had a violent criminal history and convicted attempted murder in 1994. moye is the third officer shot in the last two months. ainsley: tomi lahren joins us now. >> this is so heart breaking, as pete said, the third officer in the last two months to be shot and killed. our state is certainly mourning his loss. and i can't tell you what it feels like to be in california and lose another officer it's absolutely heart breaking. ainsley: we showed his picture aaron luther he is 39 years old. the police officer is in his car and calling a tow truck and getting his card impounded he doesn't like it he pulls out a gun and shoots two officers. this man dies. he shouldn't have had a gun. lengthy record long rap sheet in prison before convicted of murder, convicted in 1994. how did he get his hands on a gun?

>> well, exactly. i think now reports are starting to come out from his girlfriend or wife saying that he was concerned that his car would be impounded. he was concerned that he did have a rifle he wasn't supposed to be owning, so that's what prompted him to then shoot at officers and then obviously kill the officer. so the story is still unraveling as to what exactly happened. even just last week in southern california we experienced a stabbing spree in which four people were murdered that people as well should not have been on the streets was actually out on bail. so this and we don't know the full story what happened in riverside but we are seeing a pattern that california's felon friendly laws are literally stabbing us in the back in this state and we need to get a hold on it because this is absolutely unacceptable. ainsley: he was convicted in 1994 of attempted murder. steve: tomi, this goes to show you there is no such thing as a routine traffic stop because you just never know what is going to happen. >> well, that's the thing

and that's what people like myself who advocate for law enforcement constantly try to remind people, especially in a time now when police are being demonized on a daily basis and law enforcement in general border patrol agents and ice agents are being demonized. we have water being thrown at cops in new york city. at a time where law enforcement do not have a single routine day on the job being demonized and disparaged. it's time to wrap our arms around law enforcement and how we appreciate them in the community. pete: rasheda tlaib leading a protest against ice and border patrol agents. weeing 150% spike in fentanyl related deaths last year alone. what's going on there that is leading to this? >> again, it's always so interesting. we talk about the state of california even though he lo the state cautionary tally for the rest of the country.

this is what happens to the state that doesn't have consequences for drug dealers, drug users. we don't enforce the border. it's the perfect storm for disaster. we also know coming across the border is fentanyl and pills as well leading to epidemic. in san francisco we are seeing a lot of issues besides just drug use. people sleeping in heir cars. really the policy they have allowed. it's thing after thing after thing that we are not addressing any of the core issues just putting bandaids over them and our state is struggling right now. it's over leadership. steve: that's one of the things the president has talked about is just the fact that so many drugs are streaming across our southern border they have got to have a crackdown. >> we have to have a crackdown on that and also a crackdown on drug dealers and also if we are not going to punish drug users we have to crack down on the border and drug dealers. otherwise, we have lawlessness. that's what you are seeing in california. people more concerned with gender pronouns than they are taking care of the core

issues in this state. we need a change of leadership. i hope the people of california are starting to see that. pete: i read an article briefly. will there ever be a breakup of liberals in san francisco, mostly liberals who say i want a good quality of life. i'm done with the activism. it's time to enforce the place where i want to live. >> you would think, but the problem is that a lot of californians aren't tieing that to democratic leadership. they think that's just the new norm that homelessness, drug use, feces on the streets, they think that is just to be expected. it's not because it doesn't happen in other states. we need a change of leadership. we have got people like kamala harris and gavin newsom and nancy pelosi coming out of san francisco. that should be a huge wake-up call to republicans and democrats alike. ainsley: all right. tomi, thanks for joining us. go check her out on fox nation. no interruption is the name of her show. it is netflix for conservatives. go download the app., fox nation. pete: thanks, tomi. >> bi. pete: one of the co-founders

ainsley: we are back with a fox news alert and live look at the long congress airport. steve: thousands of protesters are gathered inside the terminal. it looks like a lot of them are sitting down, laying down. they threatened to shut down operations for a third straight day. it is currently 6:38 in the evening there in hong kong. pete: benjamin hall joins us live with a brand new warning for those protesters from beijing. benjamin? >> pete, steve and ain'tly good morning. the airport is a lot quieter than it was. because of a new court order which prohibits any protest inside the airport there are only a few dozen left. that is totally opposite from what we saw jed major clashes some people are calling a turning point in 10-week long protest against china and their rule in hong kong. that is because of the forced closure of one of the world's busiest airports by protesters. it's a make economic hub and china simply couldn't allow

it to go on. so we saw violent scenes as riot police clashed with 10,000 protesters who for two straight days have appreciated passengers from making they're light leading chaos. during protests yesterday president trump tweeted about and video emerged of a chinese military build-up just across the border stoking fears, growing fears of a ten minute like military response ahead. and now u.s. politicians are getting involved. both house speaker nancy pelosi and senate majority leader mitch mcconnell issuing statements to protesters to which china directly responded saying washington's real goal is to incite chaos in hong kong and the u.s. was now directly involved in the unrest. chinese troops moving to the border. harsh rhetoric from china. we just heard that china has revoked permission for two u.s. warships to dock in hong kong.

all the while the underlying issues which led to the protests the extradition to china the calls for carrie lamb to step down have not been answered. meaning the two sides are on a collision course we have to see who backs down and what action china choosing to take. steve: no action right there now at the airport. benjamin hall. let's bring in stuart varney host of varney and company. my take with stuar stuart varney on fox nation. what do you make what's going on over there. >> on news. beijing doing the groundwork preparing for some kind of intervention. circulating these videos showing military people just across the border doing riot control calling the people demonstrating radicals around near terrorists they seem to be whipping up mainland support for some intervention in hong kong. they are saying intervention is inevitable if the situation worsens.

that is ominous indeed. now, china actually is speaker pelosi and senate leader mcconnell saying they are inciting chaos in hong kong. notice how they are deflecting. steve: how are they doing that? >> you know, beijing is saying okay. don't call me on the carpet for that. >> notice they are not referring directly to president trump and saying he is stirring it up because that would get in the way. steve: trading partner. >> trade discussions. they are focusing on speaker pelosi and leader mcconnell and saying they are responsible for the chaos in hong kong. at the moment it does look ominous. ainsley: is all the chaos the reason that the united states have decided to delay the tariffs on china until december? >> i don't know if there is a connection between the hong kong situation and china trade talks it. is true that president trump has laid the imposition of tariffs on a whole variety of products which we are likely to be buying for the holidays.

the tariffs are delayed until december the 15th. let me see i have a list here on smart phones, laptops, toys, video games, some foot wear, some clothing. that's a wide raft of products which we would be buying for the holidays, no tariffs until at least december the 15th. so, some people are saying what the president has backed off. steve: right. >> wall street likes it. consumers like it. business likes it. but it is a degree of backing off. pete: sir, back to hong kong, have you lived there i have never been. a lot of our viewers have never been there in the con context of interest free markets and free expression why does the battle matter so much to the communist chinese? break that down. >> since when has any communist government or authority allowed free speech or free voting. that's what they have got in hong kong, up to a degree. not entirely free voting. they have certainly got free speech. government of beijing cannot allow that to go forward. that's like a sore thumb sticking out there on the south coast of china which

betrays the rest of the communist government. they have got this idea that they want to go back and take control. what they are doing is abrogating the 50-year agreement which they signed with the british in 1997 that hong kong would have its own separate, independent locally system, which is the backbone of democracy. china wants to end that, that's what this dispute is all about. steve: i was reading in the "wall street journal" an op-ed and i thought you had written it but as it turned out it's written by one of the co-founders of home depot and the owner of a grocery store chain here in new york city, bernie markets and john kasmeetis. they say we are grateful to live in a nation free enterprise allows us to achieve our dreams. both of us are sons of immigrants who came to these shores with almost nothing. no one would ever say we grew up privileged and that is true many almost all other successful business owners we know. we made it the old fashioned

way. we had bold plans and took risks and invested in successful made in america businesses. >> at a time when tax the rich is all the rage, go after the rich, demonize the rich, these two rich people are defending themselves. i think defending themselves very well. point number one they say we keep reinvesting our money into our businesses, into our economy, growing the economy. we are doing good with our money. two, they say that we have given $2 billion to charity already and will continue to give a great deal more in the future. and number three, most important to me, they do more good with their own money if they are allowed to keep it than if they would have to forcibly give it to the government, a bureaucratic lethargic government. that's something that i agree with fundamentally. if you let us keep a little bit more of our money, we can do a lot more good with it than the government will do with it. that's my position entirely.

pete: maybe they are learning from you. do we need more business owners to go on the offensive on capitalism? it's a good thing? >> yes. that's exactly what we should be doing. at the moment business is under attack. wealth is under attack. tax it, take it away from them. confiscate it. i don't agree with that at all. we should come out more forcefully and say we can do more good with our money than the government can do. ainsley: what percentage of money would you like to see taken out of our paychecks? to pay for our schools. >> what why like? ainsley: we have to give some we have to do schools and bridges. >> if you losing 50%. 1% loses more than 50%. that's wrong, absolutely wrong. no government should ever take more than half of any person's income. what would i be satisfied with? [laughter] steve: 2%. >> no, no. no. be reasonable. the government has to be funded and wealthy people should pay more than poor people. i got that not a problem. the limit should be about one third.

ainsley: i like it. >> are you stun? did you think i was going for 10%? pete: i was thinking 17. >> 33%. that's my total tax bill, i will pay it. steve: thankfully, washington spends the money so wisely. ainsley: right. shrimp on a treadmill we all remember. steve: check stuart varney out over on fox business, fox nation. he is in an industry all by himself. ainsley: thanks, stuart. jillian is behind us with more headlines. jillian: that's right. good morning to you and everybody at home as well. talk about todd and julie chrisly were charged with federal tax evasion. ainsley: no. >> chrislys, todd and julie chrisly. >> you were caught smoking a cigarette with your brother. >> all oxygen was cut off to your brain at the time that you did that. >> well, everyone has their own opinion. >> couple indicted on 12 charges including bank fraud. on instagram chrisley says

engagement party in california. steve: we all went out to california had a lovely couple of days. pete: wine? steve: lovely week in orange county. they make wine in california. i was trying to foster a good feeling with the local vineyards. pete: support the economy. ainsley: you missed a lot of the news. a lot going on. steve: i'm familiar with that. ainsley: fill steve in on the news that he missed. steve: this is a fox news alert. today the fbi agents are expected to sweep the jail where jeffrey epstein died of what is referred to as a suicide. pete: it comes as reports surface two guards that were supposed to be watching him were asleep on the job. ainsley: that's right. griff jenkins joins us live from washington. griff, that's not even the worst part of it, right? >> it's not at all. there are multiple reports, the "new york times" and -- sleeping on the job for

three hours when he this they were supposed to be checking on him every 30 minutes will not only the problem. two falsifying the logs. could constitute a federal crime. video shows they never made the rounds. those officers are on administrative leave. this sass fox news learned the warden has been reassigned by the attorney general to a northeast regional office the doj announcing another warned has been named acting war kennel of the mcc new york. matt whitaker says this is simply inexcusable. >> there is really no reason that these failures should have happened. they should have been enhanced procedures because of the previous attempt or assault. most likely an attempt. and now the -- i mean, there were failures but there should have been so many more enhanced procedures that it's really inexcusable how we find ourselves here

today. >> inspector general investigations the bureau of prisons after action team is expected at the facility today to determine whether employees were following protocols before epstein's death and why he was removed from suicide watch. meanwhile here in washington, the house judiciary committee launched their own investigation demanding answers from the bureau of prisons. there are calls from members of the senate judiciary committee to do the same. i think it's fair to say, we are headed for hearings here in washington and september. guys? steve: there are so many questions and not many answers. ainsley: so much, yeah. steve: thank you, griff. so they didn't check on him for three hours before the death. required every 30 minutes. and it looks like they, you know, reportedly falsified the logs to make it look like, yep, we kept comicking on him. they have the video surveillance. how do they check on him if they never went to the cell. ainsley: right, right. gloria all red is representing some of these women and she is saying now we are going to go after his estate. is he apparently worth

559 million. that does have to be verified because some people claim they are worth x-amount and they are really not. all women were minors at the time. thanks to child victim's act in new york takes effect this week. open as year window to victims sexually victimized as kids. before that you couldn't go back because of statute of limitations. now these women will be able to try to get money at least because of everything they have been through. they want justice. pete: rightfully so. was it just those guards asleep and pencil whipping the logs or something bigger than that we had the former fbi national spokesperson on in the 5:00 hour of "fox & friends first." he expanded on where the problems may lie. >> in alfa sets of the government, you will find various levels of incompetence and this certainly is it but it's not just these two guards. it's who is implementing these policies what are the checks and balances to make sure people are doing their

jobs. finally even if you take somebody off of suicide watch, why aren't they taking the basic precautions at least initially after the fact. these are people who probably thought we can get away with it. if that's the case, they need to be adjudged correctly to make sure that others, not just in this prison, but around the country are doing their jobs. this was too high profile to ignore. steve: yeah. falsifying logs can be a federal crime. you know, i'm sure they are going to look into that regarding this suicide. and one of the federal prison workers didn't work as a correction officer. he was just filling in because they were so shorthanded. ainsley: short-staffed. steve: some of them were on overtime, overtime, overtime. sounds like a terrible situation. ainsley: when i read that warden was reassigned i thought to another prison? no he was reassigned to regional office. pete: that's baking story we will continue to bring to you. another big story is a rule change the trump administration made in the last couple of days to how folks qualify to receive a green card.

here permanently in that process they effectively said you can't be spending 12 months out of 36 months receiving federal benefits, otherwise, that will hold you back from getting a pathway to citizenship. steve: well, hold your horses two counties out in california say that is not right. and so they are suing the which denies green cards typically grants who are deemed likely to rely on welfare. but the president is doubling down. he says, look, this is about america and protecting the american dream. watch. >> it's about america first i don't think it's fair to have the american taxpayer pay for people to come into the united states. so, what we have done is institute what took place many, many years ago at our founding. but we are just reinstituting it. and i think it's long overdue. i am tired of seeing our taxpayer paying for people to come into the country and

immediately go on to welfare and various other things. so i think we are doing it right. ainsley: just reinstituting this. it doesn't apply to people who are being politically -- religiously persecuted in their country where they are worried about their lives. if they are in danger. it doesn't apply to people who are here seeking asylum either. pete: refugees, asylum seekers not part of this. it is folks who come here. listen, it's common sense if you are a taxpayer you want to know your dollars are going to people who if they are here are doing so productively. if you show a pattern of dependency why we we want you to become a permanent citizen. i want to do it right way to get a green card. those are welcome. ainsley: usually people come over here and get a green card so they can work in a restaurant or wherever they want to work. better opportunity. but, to come over to our country, when you are not fleeing your country because

you are in danger. you are just coming to live on our soil, shouldn't you contribute, too? pete: the problem the left has created incentives get free driver's license and free college and free healthcare and food stamps and possibly voting. all of that leads to that culture and that's what the president is trying to fight back against. steve: he was talking about protecting the american taxpayer. i said the american dream. taxpayer. meanwhile, i discovered something in the last hour that kind of was a little jaw-dropping. pete hegseth actually pulled out his wallet. pete, can you show us your wallet? pete: yeah, sure. i don't pull it out very often. steve: no kidding. you don't have toll tuesday. pete: there you go. steve. steve: here is pete's wallet. ainsley: is he buying chick-fil-a. i bought that 100-dollar bill wallet at the dollar store. he paid a 1 in it. >> on the inside it says in god we trust. pete: sure does. steve: in god we is on every

bill. it's in the halls of congress. it's in the supreme court. and now, louisiana, the public schools will display in god we trust throughout the school year because of a new bill just signed by the democrat governor, john bel edwards down in louisiana. pete: yeah, very cool. so the louisiana state senator's name is regina baylor. a democrat. good point, steve, in our culture today usually these things are coming from republicans. down in the south there is a lot of patriotic democrats who still feel like the foundations of our country matter. shear a flashback to what the state senator in louisiana said in april of 2018 about why this matters. watch. >> this is our national motto. it's also on our currency. so i think it's really important that we insurance that young people understand the patriotic history of our country and how it was founded and its purpose. pete: beautiful. ainsley: good for her. 14 states where in god we trust is required in schools. arkansas, arizona, florida,

georgia, kentucky, louisiana, mississippi, north dakota. oklahoma, south carolina, south dakota, tennessee and utah. steve: i was surprised at that i did not realize there were 14 states where it was required. ainsley: most southern states. pete: it was national motto. i didn't know why i was handing you my wallet, clearly i trust you. in god we trust is something we believe in this nation. ainsley: you trust in god and steve. pete: i do clearly. not just in this particular case down in louisiana. it's not just about displaying in god we trust. we are going to teach about the national motto as well. don't do. that is that god in the classroom? you are not allowed to do that yes, you are. there is nothing that says you can't talk about the bible or god, especially if a state legislature says you can do so. wonderful. ainsley: probably applicable in our lives every single day trust god. in god we trust. steve: new law also requires students to learn about the u.s. flag and requires students learn about

patriotic customs by the fifth grade. apparently legislators felt that the message wasn't getting through and so they are going to go ahead and educate people. pete: looking around at the lunancy of our nation and saying we better do something about it. be ready are to the court challenges they are coming. steve: in 3, 2. pete: faster than a court challenge against a trump regulation. this is -- we live in a society where the left has abandoned so many of those core principles. wonderful to see not just the republicans but democrats step up and say we understand we have a history complicated. what the founders gave us was beautiful. our rights are endowed from a creator. if our students don't understand that they don't understand why america is a exceptional nation and our schools have an obligation to do it. story of the morning. common sense. great stuff. ainsley: that one and the lady holding the stove and going eh, eh. she is coming up. she said yes to come on our show. remember we showed you that video yesterday?

steve: it's hilarious. ainsley: her daughter is doing. this she is mortified. steve: mom is making the stove talk. [laughter] steve: that's not easy. ainsley: let us know what you think in god we trust comments. send them to friends@foxnews.com. pete: by are the 36 states not doing it. ainsley: 36. 50 minus 14. steve: meanwhile you can hear her giggling that's jillian. jillian: sorry, i can't help. 50 minus 14. good morning. let's talk about this. the fbi investigating a targeted attack at an ice building in texas. take a look at this bullet hole from one of the several shots fired at the building in san antonio. the gunman knew exactly where to aim. >> all the shots that we have found are on the floors where ice had offices. so this is no question a very targeted attack. jillian: and you heard that right there it was a targeted attack. so far no arrests have been made. there have been four anti-ice attacks in a month

like in washington state where antifa member lit a car on fire outside an ice facility. he was shot and killed by police. the man accused of killing a california highway patrol officer shouldn't have been able to own a gun. officer andre moye murdered in a wild shootout after stopping aaron luther on monday. luther firing several shots before being killed by return fire. luther was convicted of attempted murder 25 years ago. that made possession of a weapon illegal. fellow officers laying wreaths to honor moye. >> his mother last night told me this was his dream job and he loved going to work. and it's what he always wanted to do. officer moye embodies everything that the california highway patrol stands for with professionalism, dedication and service to the public. officer moye is the 27th officer shot and killed in the line of duty this year. he served for nearly three years and leaves behind a wife. a gang member's mom may have

helped her son expose snitches. a paralegal at the u.s. attorney's office in new jersey used her work computer to out potential gang witnesses who were cooperating with police. a judge ordering her to have no contact with her son who was in the blood's street gang. she has pleaded not guilty to federal charges. congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez could soon square off with the founder of barstool sports. this comes after dave portnoy threatened to fire employees who tried to unionize. aoc responded by tweeting in part saying quote all workers in the u.s. have the protected freedom to organize for better position. portnoy firing back writing, quote: hey, aoc welcome to thunder dome. debate me. the new york lawmaker did not respond. although i just have a hint that there are many people who would love to debate aoc if she would be willing to. steve: sure. bring it on he says. pete: a lot of people would love to debate dave portnoy.

he goes by he will presidente. he says we ain't doing unions. steve: he makes it clear. ainsley: that site is so popular. how many people are on instagram? pete: if you try to unionize i will fire you. steve: just like that. meanwhile, moving on, nearly two dozen democrats running for president in 2020. have you heard. next guest says many of them have truly lost their minds. what? senator tom cotton. we will have to ask him about that sound bite as you can see, he is live. that's why i'm talking. ainsley: hi. how are you? ♪ walk this way ♪ talk this way ♪ did you know congress is working to end surprise medical billing? that's when patients are hit with medical bills they thought would be covered by insurance. the problem is big insurance companies want a one-size-fits-all approach that lets them decide

>> there is nobody more pro-american than president trump. i don't want lunatics or a maniac. i think if we do proper background checks we can do that. steve: there you have the president yesterday looking into potential gun law changes including bipartisan red flag laws aimed at

keeping firearms away from people who shouldn't have them, particularly the mentally ill. pete: our next guest agrees with this tom cotton sits on the armed services committee and author of "sacred duty" a soldier's tour at arlington national cemetery. >> good to be back on with you. ainsley: always good to have you. pete: conservatives are weary of a knee-jerk reaction to something like this. rid flag laws. your take on that, i understand they are weary. people of arkansas are weary as well. several presidential candidates demanding walmart stop selling all firearms. that does not resonate very well with people who own firearms or need them to defend themselves or just to go hunting. however we shouldn't let mentally disturbed people have firearms. so the red flag laws that are under debate, first off should be a state matter. the federal government can provide grants for funding or department of justice the way we other law enforcement

context. also have to provide due process so people have notice in a hearing and have to provide penalties in someone misuses them or has a grudge against a neighbor. if within those parameters, i think we can act to make sure that mentally disturbed often young time outcome men alienated like the young shooter in dayton was don't have firearms. steve: you are willing to do something regarding gun laws while the nra would like you to do nothing it is said. >> i think in washington, what we should do is provide support for states that want to adopt those laws. look, it's beyond the capabilities of frazell law enforcement to try to monitor every single person in this country who might be a danger to others or a danger to themselves. that's why we have local police and sheriff's departments. but what we can do as the federal government is provide technical assistance through the department of justice or grants and other kinds of funding if states want to take that approach as well. but we probably -- what we would need to do though is make sure we are providing

funding for states adopting laws that provide due process make sure we are focused on people like the dayton shooter. the dayton shooter was found with a rape list or kill list of classmates he wanted to rape or kill. apparently on a first date i assume the only date with a young woman he showed her a video of the shooting at the pittsburgh synagogue. steve: the police knew about that because it was reported to the police and years later he wound up -- ainsley: how could you determine the guy was mentally ill. texas i don't think he had any history with the law. maybe one little traffic violations that he had. >> there is not going to be a perfect solution. we can't stop every crime. i think we can make a difference. also what we can do to stop a crime in general. make sure we are supporting our law enforcement community and that we are supporting partnerships between federal and local law enforcement. i just heard from our u.s. attorney this week in little rock they have seen a significant decline this n. crime because we have some

more communities. designed to stop gun crime by getting criminals off the streets to begin with. pete: better at the state level you have understand the concern from conservatives. red flag laws means someone telling on somebody you are right you may have punishment for that if there is a political reason or i don't like your beliefs that could go sideways real quick. >> that's another reason why yawngted capabilities of the federal government vs. state and local governments on the police and know their own people is that it should be a state matter. because we have state experiences with these things. there should be real penalties for anyone who might misuse such a law to carry on a personal grudge or a dispute of any kind. steve: senator, i teased this earlier. you say that the democrats, who are running for president, have truly lost their mind. what are you talking about? >> i just think you can look at the reactions over the last 24 hours and see this. you know, the president did a great job this week of introducing a new regulation that's going to implement the public charge law. we should not be admitting immigrants to this country who can't support

themselves, who are going to go on welfare and take taxpayer resources. that's been the law for over 100 years. the regulation that was issued this week was simply implementing that law under modern circumstances. yet, you have all these democrats rushing out to denounce the president. just like on the debate stage a few weeks ago, they were saying that we should decriminalize crossing the border and provide taxpayer funded healthcare. the democrats running for president, in my opinion, have truly lost their mind on some of these things. they are deranged by the president and they are rushing so far to the left that i can't imagine they are going to be successful next year. pete: i don't know how you defender that this video had us laughing all morning including just recently. ainsley is still laughing. a daughter is mortified by her mom's dancing. watch this. ♪ ♪ yeah, yeah ♪

steve: former acting attorney general matt whitaker said this could be just the tip of an iceberg. >> i am sure that right now bill barr is just waiting for the next shoe to drop to find out what else happened at this facility. but it's really concerning. but one of the things that i think everybody needs to remember is this case is not over just because of this death. >> not over. the warned of the manhattan jail has been transferred and the two officers are now on leave. steve: let's bring in jack johnson. jack is a former federal prison guard. he has been to this facility where jeffrey epstein died and he joins us live. jack, good morning to you. >> good morning. >> okay. so you know some people are like did looked like for three hours nobody had eyes on him. they were supposed to check him every half an hour. would that have made a difference. >> i feel the checks would not have made a difference. if someone wants to harm themselves in a federal prison setting. it can be accomplished in less than 10 minutes. while i don't condone what the officers did or didn't

do, i can tell you that if somebody wants to kill themselves in a federal prison, special housing units. it could be done well within a 30 hour period. ainsley: you all don't have cameras. >> let me clear up three hours. there is a count at 3:00 a.m. and a count at 5:00 a.m. i would imagine after the 5:00 a.m. count that's when it happened. and then they clear the count. steve: what's the count. >> they count inmates five times in a 24 hour period. and when they have all the inmates counted and the match count it's cleared and then they open the doors in the morning and the segregation unit they are not opening the doors. they begin feeding and going through larue teen. three hours is erroneous. i have heard so much erroneous reporting. steve: it sounds like the guards, according to these news reports falsified the records and set yeah i was in there every 30 minutes. unfortunately if you work in the industry, people who do not do 30-minute checks there is a bp prison form

292, special housing unit record that people do sometimes put on the form that they do. ainsley: when you are on suicide watch there is someone always watching you through a camera, right? >> absolutely. ainsley: he wasn't on suicide watch so he didn't have a camera in there. 30 minutes is plenty of time for someone to hang themselves. do you think he did that because there are conspiracy theories. >> absolutely. ainsley: you think he did. >> conspiracy theories are conspiracy theories. that's all. pete: how about the idea that people asking why was he taken off of suicide watch? >> another myth. look at the policy. suicide watch is approximately three days. i have done it many times. the policy says after 72 hours, you clinically evaluate. if there is a need for transfer to a federal medical centers, a hospitals environment. they are paying three shifts of overtime. after that third, four day they make a decision and it's a chief clinical psychologist making a decision. not an ex-warden not monday morning quarterbacking the warden. steve: you actually worked

in that particular jail and prison. >> i have been on audit at that jail and i have visited that unit and been that that jill many times. i work in upstate new york otisville. steve: you heard the complaint that the guards there are super overtaxed they are working a lot of overtime they're exhausted. >> you just hit the nail on the head. everybody is focusing on officer conduct. and it's a bigger, broader problem. and its agency wide. it has mainly to do with staffing. steve: interesting. just don't have enough stuff. >> point blank, not enough staff. plus, in the urban areas, the pay, it's hard to attract good people in an urban area with the rate of pay. they do have a geographic bonus for working in new york city. but i want to say average guard or correctional officer is probably making approximately 30, $40,000, which is tough to survive on especially if they have a family. it's difficult, it's a difficult situation. pete: not to get into too many details early in the morning. not on suicide watch in a cell. friewm thattably anything that he could use to harm himself has mostly been

removed. the ability to kilt yourself still there have you seen it? >> in the suicide, no. it starts without somebody with tear away clothes and suicide blanket. as they become more coherent and gradually give them property back to gradual a plastic fork to eat. when they are off watch that's the tricky part. once they are off watch back to shoe. they have access by policy to property, sheets, you know, sweat clothing, things like that. so this is policy-driven. things like the right to be in segregation as a pre-trial inmate. is he not convicted. he has the right to request protective custody they would have to house him in a housing unit. that's what this comes down to. we are trained to staff when utmost suicides occur newly arriving people and special housing environment.

special flag training in my whole career. ainsley: a lot of people don't have sympathy for him most people don't because of what he did for young girls. we do want justice for those young girls. >> absolutely. ainsley: how often do you see people commit suicide. >> that's another big issue for me. i don't know if you read my op-ed in the hill. they should be concerned any time someone takes their lives. should be concerned with the murders happening in federal penitentiaries. why this because is he famous. i understand it. i hope it brings attention to a broader transparency issue, accountability, leadership. i leadership really taxed. i hope this doesn't turn into a sacrificial investigation and blaming line checks for 30 minutes. it's systemic. pete: it usually rolls down hill. long hours, thankless job for the work you do. >> absolutely. appreciate it.

itself. here we are 240 years later. it is our job to keep it that way. steve: it's a long experiment. pete: there are plenty of control cases around the world that don't work so well. ainsley: during the experiment, there is a lot of news out there and we have a lot of experiences to cover. the jail where jeffrey epstein died of an apparent suicide. steve: a report surfaced, the two guards were supposed to be watching him every three hours were asleep on the job. pete: griff, that is not even the worst part, right? reporter: not at all. multiple reports from "the new york times" and ap of one flail you are after another. alleged sleeping on the job three hours. they were supposed to be checking on epstein in every 30 minutes. they were accused of falsifying the log to the contrary. that could be a federal crime. according to surveillance they never made the rounds.

the officers are on administrative leave pending an investigation. after the warden at the metropolitan corrections center has been reassigned by bill barr james verducci is named acting ward enfor new york. matt whiter says this is simply inexcusable. >> there is really no reason these failures should have happened. there should have been enhanced procedures because of the previous attempt or assault, most likely an attempt. now the there were failures. there should have been so many more enhanced procedures. really inexcusable how we find ourselves here today. reporter: bureau of prisons after action team is expected at jail. that report could tell us more. they could tell us whether the employees were following protocals. why was he removed from suicide

watch first place. lawmakers are asking for a investigation and calls for senate judiciary committee to do the same. guys? steve: griff, thank you very much. sounds like the two correctional employees could be in big trouble. falsifying prison documents could be a federal crime. ainsley: one article i read, these employees are working overtime and working regular hours too. if they fall asleep on the job, that's terrible. terrible. especially when you need to watch someone on suicide watch. but sometimes it is preventable. people have to sleep. if they have only x-amount of guards, do they need to hire more people? what is the solution. pete: long hours. tough job a lot of monotony. one moment you're not on your toes this happens. what is great in the program, we had jack dodson a former federal prison guard. you want to talk about people that had the job, been on the block, knows what is going on. he explained the bigger problem of this suicide. >> everybody's focusing on

officer conduct and it's a bigger, broader problem. they should be concerned when anyone takes their lives in a federal pressprison. it is happening all the time. they should be concerned with the murders in our federal penitentiaries. why this? because he is famous. i hope it brings attention to broader transparency issue, accountability, leadership. i hope this doesn't turn into sacrificial explanation, blaming line staff for 30 minute checks. it is far from the contrary. it is systemic. steve: jack sees this as a simply a suicide even if the guards, correction a.m. officers did have eyes on them every 30 minutes, as they documented in the logs. somebody who is in intent on killing themselves can kill themselves in handful of minutes inside a federal facility. ainsley: i knew someone who worked in the prison system, on our show yesterday, the day

before, said something similar to that. if they want to commit suicide they're going to commit suicide. pete: it is not standard procedure to keep someone on suicide watch more than 72 hours. they're examined, determined whether they go to the hospital or not. in a moment, a lot of theories, getting facts and information is hard. ainsley: on suicide watch, they're on camera, watching them at all times. for privacy reasons they don't have the inmates don't have cameras in their cells. steve: that's right. we'll keep you posted. meantime shots fired at the i.c.e. facility down in san antonio. apparently, according to a local report, local media and there you can see the bullet hole, right there, in the window. it is up a couple floors. it happened three a.m. tuesday. we understand there were no injuries. the fbi is investigating. this is another attack on an i.c.e. facility. i believe it is the fourth in the last month. pete: last month protesters

blocked the entrance to a i.c.e. headquarters in d.c. in washington, a man hurled a molotov cocktail at an i.c.e. building n aurora, colorado, american flag took down and "blue lives matter" flag defaced this appears to be anti-i.c.e. pattern. ainsley: let's bring in kevin mcaleenan, the acting dhs secretary. >> good morning, good to be with you. ainsley: good to have you on. the i.c.e. agents in san antonio, this was not random. it was very targeted, because the building houses different offices, the bullet went through the i.c.e. window which looked it was five or six floors up. what do you think? what is the reaction? >> does appear to be targeted. this is the fourth incident of violence or issue at an i.c.e. facility. our top priority is the safety of our men and women who are out there protecting american communities. really appreciate the quick response of the fbi. the state and locals will be investigating this.

we have got to find this perpetrator. we have to insure this can't happen again. steve: absolutely. the i.c.e. field office director down there, dan bible, mr. mcaleenan, he blamed politicians, media outlets, activists group sharing information and misinformation to the public. what do you think about that assessment? >> i think the environment where we're demonizing law enforcement for doing their jobs, enforcing the laws on the books is concerning. it can be dangerous. it can result people taking action not supported by the facts that are not in response to anything inappropriate, that our men and women of i.c.e., removal operations are doing. i think we have got to tone that down, absolutely. steve: i.c.e. has been demonized. we've seen that a lot in the last year. but these guys, the men and women of i.c.e. are simply doing their job. if people don't like the laws, let's change the laws. >> that is exactly right. we have to have a balanced epforcement process to have

integrity in the immigration system. we can't do everything at the border. even though we're making progress with our international strategy, thank to president trump's engagement with mexico, guatemala, the new president of el salvador. even though we're making progress we sill have to enforce the law in the interior. we can't have businesses exploiting undocumented workers in a anti-competitive fashion. we have to have balance. pete: congress has done almost nothing to address the crisis at border. steve: they talked a lot bit. pete: talked a great deal. president tried to declare emergency. tapped into other funds. deployment of national guard troops and their own southern border. we heard about the safe third country agreements have been signed or in the works with number of different countries. you mentioned guatemala. while the new president-elect wants to rewrite the migration deal struck with the trump administration what is happening there? >> sure let's break that down, pete. several different component to that. i announced on thursday last week down in yuma we are making

progress with our strategy. the international peace first and foremost, mexico stepping up to do more enforcement on their southern border between guatemala. transportation route, human smuggers are. bringing migrants to the border. they are making a progress. we've seen a reduction in flows. with guatemala we implemented, there are five more months of this administration with guatemala. we administered an aggressive effort against human smugglers. with dhs boots on the ground, side by side with guatemala partners. we signed a cooperation agreement which could really change the game. make sure we're rebroke teching people need asylum close to home as possible. denying the access to exploit our loopholes in the law at the same time. those efforts are making progress. 43% reduction if crossings since may. we're hoping to continue the progress in august. i will go back to central america next week to rebuild that with guatemala and

el salvador. to address this as a regional effort. ainsley: mr. secretary, i watch you on the sunday shows, you get raked over the coals, congress just wants sound bite and leaders that blast you, i ask myself every single time, is it worth it to you? why do you do the job? >> good question, ainsley. the mission is compelling. i think we have the most compelling mission in law enforcement to protect the homeland. it is an honor to serve in this role. the second thing that inspires me are our men and women, being down there on the border multiple times. acting secretary. seeing how hard they're working. we got them some relationship. emergency supplemental combined with the emergency strategy changed dynamic. first week in june we had 20,000 people in custody in border stations. they're having a difficult time managing that overcrowding. this morning we have 4,000. they're not staying with us very long. we're repatriate single adults. the children are going to a better situation with the.

they deserve our support and protection. steve: indeed. mr. secretary, there is a lot of talk about domestic terrorism last couple weeks in particular. how is the department of homeland security addressing this real concern? >> absolutely. it has been my top priority since becoming acting secretary in april. i stood up to targeted violence terrorist prevention office in my first week. we commissioned homeland security advise very council to help us study domestic terrorism. especially white supremacist extremism and racially motivated violence. i was in jackson mississippi yesterday with the homeland security advisory council meeting with members of congress, state and local leaders, attacks on faith-based organizations and churches. how can we address those better as a whole in the community? for for dh this is a major effort. cybersecurity, infrastructure security agency, u.s. secret service, fema, federal protective service, all those entities help empower state and

local community to be prepared to do active shooter awareness trainings. the grants we supply support law enforcement in addressing these kinds of concerns. we're a close partner with the federal bureau of investigation with their lead investigating, preventing domestic terrorism. it's a major effort for dhs. we're expanding it. we'll increasingly become more effective. it's a real issue all over the country. steve: it's a real issue, are you seeing a rise in the number of incidents or is this something, you know, you've experienced in the past but it is just being reported differently now? >> i think there is a rise in the number of incidents. the fbi director testified last month about 850 domestic terrorism investigations ongoing. a number of with racially-motivated violent extremist ideologies behind them. we have to get out in front of that, both in the prevention side, identifying individuals on a pathway to violence, through the secret service, national threat assessment center. we told state and local

estimated 10,000 protesters, who for two straight days prevented passengers from reaching their flights, leading to chaos. during those protests yesterday, president trump tweeted about them and a video emerged after chinese military build-up across the border in shen chen. that stoked real fears of a tianamen military response. both house speaker pelosi and senate majority leader mitch mcconnell issuing statements in support of the protesters to which china quickly responded directly, saying that washington's real goal was now clear. it was to incite chaos in hong kong. and that the u.s. was directly involved in the unrest. so you have chinese troops moving to the border. you have harsh language from china. they have just revoked an invitation for two u.s. warships to go to port in hong kong. and still the underlying issues which led to the protests haven't been dealt with.

the extradition bill to china a new leader, calls for carrie lam to step down. feeling this will continue. there will be more clashing ahead. the question is, which side backs down first. back to you. steve: benjamin hall. ainsley: looks so dangerous. steve: wilbur ross was on television last couple minutes. the united states government regard this is as intern mall matter. pete: it is internal matter with international implications considering how expansive china has become. this is bastion of freedom, hong kong. they signed a 50 year agreement to stay that way. we're well within the first 20, 25 years. they want the free market economy with prosperity. china knows, xi xinping if he cracks down too hard the backlash from folks internationally including the united states and freedom protesters would be big. if he doesn't crack down, his opponents in mainland china he is weak, especially alongside a weak economy. he has big stakes. steve: we heard the president

mention yesterday that apparently china is moving troops. ainsley: along the border. steve: there along the border. clearly sending a message. ainsley: they have these huge big trucks there on the border to block -- pete: china is moving troops and building ports all over the world. this is an aggressive expansionist china, believes the future is theirs, about hong kong, taiwan, africa, around the globe. it surprises nobody they're being aggressive to seize on this moment. ainsley: blaming nancy pelosi an mcconnell for this issue. why not the president? because they don't want to upset the president because they're working with him in the tariffs. the president said he will delay the tariffs until december. steve: let's listen. >> i think it looks very ominous. beijing appears to be doing the groundwork, preparing for some kind of intervention. now china actually is picking on speaker pelosi and senate leader mcconnell and saying they are inciting chaos in hong kong. notice though they're not

referring directly to president trump and saying he is stirring it up. that would get in the way of -- steve: trading partner. >> trade discussions. steve: what is going to happen there tonight? it is 8:23 now in hong kong in the evening. things really amped up just about two hours from now yesterday. so, we'll keep you posted. >> video we're showing in the airport looks peaceful. people lying down on the floor. steve: today. ainsley: if you look at past video, slamming up against the glass. i saw video of a guy on the street. he was covered in blood. he wasn't moving. pete: there has been video of protesters carrying the american flag, and singing the national anthem. for those dissidents we represent freedom in the world. ainsley: right. steve: we'll keep you posted. that is what is going on today. you've seen him on the classic tv show, "cheers." >> you slammed the u.s. of a,

done in terms of their products in terms of their employees and training but they're not telling their story that way. political campaigns an non-profits are forced to do that in rapidly changing fast environment. they have to do a better job with consumer information and better build the relationships because they have a fresher end date. if they don't have their end date they lose or unable to move forward. steve: a different kind of campaign you're doing? >> exactly right. it is the same thought process. our job is to help the companies target their audiences better, spend their money better increase return on investment. ainsley: how do we get more information? >> american made advertising.com. >> you would be surprised how many companies are out there make the best products in world and yet take great pains not telling everybody. especially in new england. steve: americanmadeadvertising.com. best of luck. pete: this headline caught our
