1:15 pm
off speculation of a potential meeting without preconditions that he could have with iranian president and th upcoming assemy session and if couple weeks. it was using advanced infusions are prohibited by the nuclear deal. this comes to the breaking news this weekend about the rain and back houthis rebels attacking saudi arabia oilfields. the u.s. air force former senior director at the national secured counsel senior fellow at the hyson institute and author of the book war, china took over while america's elite slept. welcome to fox news channel. thank you for your service to a great country. let's start with a run. what are the chances that the president could meet when they say yeah i'll meet if you look over sanctions?
1:16 pm
>> first of all that's in ingoing negotiation tactic on the act of iran. the president has an expose of two military capability and as information with economics. i think what he is trained to do is establish using all elements of national power, can we come to an agreement that is better than what we had with jcpoa, i allowed after ten years they rain and's to pursue a nuclear weapon and quite frankly gave them billions of dollars to continue the bad behavior that is led to this attack on the saudi oil fields. >> so they been lashing out, attacking oil tankers, the drones now attacking the nemesis and rivals of saudi arabia. here's what the president said about the potential of having talks because iran certainly has been squeezed in feeling the
1:17 pm
results of the president's policies in terms of the sanctions. >> i do believe they would like to make a deal, if they do that's great and if they don't that's great too. but they have tremendous financial difficulties and is the sanctions, we cannot let a run have a nuclear weapon and they never will have a nuclear weapon, they can forget about it. it's going to be very dangerous with rich. >> you see these attacks as a clear example that the president's policies are working and feeling the heat? >> they are and if you go back to the potential dialogue with the taliban they exhibited the same behavior which is great prior to having dialogue in a way to increase the leverage they had over the president, the president will not take it who continue to open pressure and what you see going forward is also pressure on the chinese,
1:18 pm
the chinese banks and companies for supporting iran and the russians also support him. it'll be a full court press going forward and the iranians are not going to be able to get the president office focus on getting them not to have a nuclear weapon and not to be a disruptive factor in the middle east. >> it is really hard for so tell us terry and jean to cry uncle. what they can do is take the squeeze and put the squeeze on the population which is what the really good at. these problems last for decades, you look at cuba and north korea, we don't have a timeline on this that is in days or months, it can be in years and decades, the problem is chinese ability to offer money to the iranians and allow them to go into the middle east and create this problem. as long as they're able to get money from china to actually create these kinds of
1:19 pm
catastrophes in the middle east, we will have a continued problem. it's about isolating the abilities and having access to western capital and having access to arms, that will result in decreasing the number and amount of chaos going on in the region. >> on top of chaos there brazenly ratcheting up the chaos with the drone attacks against the saudi arabian oil fields. this is what mike pompeo is tweeted out, he is blaming tehran directly. they are behind 100 attacks on saudi arabia and pretend to engage in diplomacy. the cause for the de-escalation they have launched an unprecedented attack on the world's energy supply, there is no evidence the attacks came from yemen, we call on all nations to condemn iran attacks. the united states will work with their partners and alleys to ensure energy markets remain supplied and iran is held
1:20 pm
accountable. what you make of that? what you make of the sci-fi ten drones for cor a coordinated at. it is very difficult to prevent an air attack. yet to go to the origin and take the capabilities out. the problem with drones are widely perforated and they can come anywhere. it's required to have a much more fulsome to ge capability fm finding out what is going on and cutting off axis of funds and access to technology, the other thing the united states can do is invest in refining capability and transition of natural gas of liquid in the united states as a buffer for the energy market. this will go on for a long time, continue to put pressure on iran and put pressure on russia to stop funding and allowing technology to flow through to
1:21 pm
cause these challenges. it's not going away anytime soon and will have to get better at understanding how drones are used, not just in the middle east, they were used in london to shut down an airport and they can be used in the united states and quite frankly our cold war era in missile regime is not suited to the widely proof related technology landscape that we have today. eric: talk about that. drones are so common. we saw israel shut down a drone. they could potentially go and bomb sites, almost anyone can go get a drone and somehow try and attack a target. >> that is absolutely correct. china dominates the market for drugs. in missile technology control regime was deployed in an era when we would not allow the soviet union to import american
1:22 pm
toys to get the chips for the weapon system. china has access to everything. the way that you prevent a proof relation of technology that you do not want is to dominate the market. if the united states were to say dominate the drone market then they could ensure technology that prevented the drones from being used in ways that were countertrend principles and there could be a kill switch for example. right now were playing with policies, cold war policies in a globalized internet powered world. >> that is frightening. drone warfare is here. thank you for your insight and your warnings and of course thank you for your service. arthel: the trump administration canceling three border wall projects due to lack of funding. we will look at what that means for the future of the presidents wall. but allstate actually helps you drive safely... with drivewise.

1:28 pm
because she has clarity. the only change out of yesterday is after she got sentenced in the marshals to arrest her put her in handcuffs and putter to the detention center. >> it does operation varsity blues and fuller house in lori loughlin. in her fashion designer husband, while huffman admitted to paying $15000 to boost your daughter's sat scores, they are both accused of paying half a million dollars to get their daughters into usc as rowing recruits even though they do not play the reese on transport. they wish they would've taken a plea deal but they did not. in the couple pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy to commit fraud and money laundering. now they face more time in prison, up to 40 years behind bars each although legal experts say it's highly unlikely they will serve near that time. her and her husband have not admitted to committing any crimes and on life huffman who

1:30 pm
off three border were projects due to lack of funding. democrats are taking aim at the president emergency declaration to redirect military funds for the wall. john decker is a fox news correspondent and attorney. we will get to the three projects in a second period tell us more about what the democrats have planned. >> what the democrats have planned is another vote on whether the president's national emergency declaration was constitutional. that vote will come sometime this month and it may sound familiar because they've taken a vote on this before and 14 republicans voted along with democrats on that earlier major but ultimately when it came before the president and past the house in the senate and the president vetoed it and thus a likely outcome if the senate does a similar major in the next few weeks. >> maybe it's symbolism. what are we hearing from
1:31 pm
congressional republicans. >> they very much want to include a border wall funding in the upcoming continuing resolution. it is the amount of money that is needed to keep the government funded the government funding will run out at the end of this month on september the 30th and there is work on a continued resolution to keep the government funded likely through the thanksgiving holiday and republicans want to include funding for the border wall along the us-mexico border in the continued resolution and democrats do not and they control the congress and this is what were hearing from republicans in the senate, when all is said and done, it'll likely be clean cr and not be additional funding for the border wall with mexico included in the continuing resolution. arthel: let's circle back to the top, the pentagon released 127 military projects that would lose money because of the shifting of funds and as we
1:32 pm
reported, president trump is saying he scratched three of the projects. >> this is something that upset some members of congress because some of the projects were located in the particular district. the reason why there is funding is because of the ruling by the u.s. supreme court in july ruling allowed the president to transfer $3.6 billion in military construction funding over to obstruction of a border wall with mexico, that still needs to be argued before the lower courts but in the meantime the supreme court in a 5 - 4 decision allows a pentagon to go ahead and use that funding 3.6 billion for the construction of a border wall. that is where we are right now, the president when all insight is done he has constructed about 60 miles of border wall since 2017, that's about 13% of the
1:33 pm
number that he mentioned in the clip that you played that 500 miles he wants constructed along the us-mexico border between now and the end of 2020 which is right around election time. arthel: lot of obstacles in the way. will the president continued the good fight for his campaign promise? or will he abandon it at some point. >> he will not abandon it. this is the most important thing in the president's reelection strategy for building the builder wall with mexico. it's why the president mentions it every time he does a campaign rally, another one coming up on monday in new mexico and you know how much of the border wall and the progress that has been made on the border wall during the campaign rally in new mexico on monday night. arthel: we will keep an eye on it and we will talk to you again. thank you. eric: a chicago teen with a vape

convicted of trying to steal a propaganda poster in north korea. something a federal judge ruled did not happen. the government held over 17 months before returning him in a vegetative state. he died shortly after returning home. his family said he was tortured but he denied mistreating him. >> it's real simple why were here, paul needs to come home. the russians have produced no evidence of wrongdoing by paul and meanwhile he is languishing in prison with no access to justice. and this is wrong. >> they are now coming together calling for russia to release an american citizen paul whalen, he is 49 years old from michigan and remains in custody under espionage charges in moscow. arrested last december while attending a friend's wedding. was he spying as his family
1:40 pm

1:41 pm
think he has any intention of releasing him and i'm not sure we have the leverage to force pressure to do so unfortunately. >> you said 2019 but i assume you meant 2020. >> yes 2020. so when she is released you think it'll free it up so whalen can be released? >> i do, i think putin wants maria to appear to be no various injection was, what she did in the united states was very discoverable, there is nothing planned about her contacts with republican stakeholders in the nra and conservative religious groups or post on social media or bank transactions, all her contacts in vladimir putin wanted to make it appear as if she was doing and espionage with the kremlin return address by an outsider. in soil the democratic process. i think that's what he wants to make paul whalen appear like he is a spy so it elevates her into something she is not.
1:42 pm
eric: in terms of whalen he works for warner which deals with auto parts and their clients in russia. he is a former u.s. marine and has four passports, brain, irish and american among them. does he sit in your view a spy? >> no. absolutely not. but he is someone who they would've easily tracked and targeted, he has visited russia before, he served in iraq, responsible for security for the auto parts company in michigan and he had to apply for a visa before he visited russia when he was arrested in december of 2018 so the russians in fsb would've known he was coming in would've planned this operation to set him up at the hotel in moscow. he is currently in the fourth of the present and been there since december 18, it is a nasty place you don't want to spend an hour there let alone the many months
1:43 pm
he's been there without proper medical care. eric: he suffers hernia and refusing surgery or medical care for that. do you think that's a wise move? >> i don't blame him. he's quite concerned about the quality of care in russia. and i think vladimir putin knows that and wants exactly what he's getting from the united states which is pressure from the media and the elected representatives to get him out because vladimir putin does not want the united states to take further action against russians up to activities and arrest them, he things his treatment of whalen might determine us from taking actions against russians were breaking the law. eric: he is playing a chess game. here is tim wallenberg out of michigan. >> right now we're doing what we can do in taking advice as we can take advice. we have been in contact with the state department, i think this
1:44 pm
far things are moving as best as possible. certainly we would encourage a president when it would be advisable to be involved only when it's advisable. eric: what does that mean? the president had sitdown meetings with putin, has he raises? should he resist directly with vitamin putin? would that do any good? >> i do believe there is value in raising this to the level of the high lateral relationship with russia. the trouble is, our relationship with russia is at its lowest point since the days of the cold war. and we don't exactly have a whole lot of leverage on how russia behaves internally on its own citizens, look at the protest in moscow, let alone our citizens. it is anything to be said about the case, the governor of russia is risky even for their economic harm because foreign business
1:45 pm
people will not want to travel to russia and do business there, out of concern of the political ponds and their truly despicable game of politics against united states which he calls his main enemy. eric: you said it right. they are praying hoping for his release that he gets well and so he is not on international relations. always good to see you. tomorrow on fox news sunday, bill hammer will sit in for chris wallace and we have an interview with david cicilline and you find more about that, he's on the house judiciary committee. that will be tomorrow talking about the investigation into the president and 11:00 a.m. eastern we will talk to white house press secretary, that will be interesting did he going to

2:21 pm
our president meets him and looks him in thize an in the --s and says just that. i am not going to be blackmailed. >> if he's smart he should sit down with the president and negotiate a comprehensive agreement. i think president trump will tell president rouhani no deal will be acceptable. the destructive' in the region. the acceptable deal has to address the full range of those destructive behaviors. and the president won't be blackmailed by rouhani or anybody else. eric: democratic candidates are back on the campaign trail following thursday night's fiery

2:24 pm
beto o'rourke said there will nobody door to door raids under his proposal. >> this would not be something we would do. others have said, this is something that we would fear if there were mandatory buyback programs. we expect people to follow the law, and that's what i believe would happen. >> the proposal about ar-is a great gop 2020 boost. eric? >> we'll have more on what the former congressman said as well as the whole gun issue. >> lawmakers on both side of the aisle are waiting to see if a deal can be reached on new gun control laws. we'll talk about what's happened and what's holding up progress.

2:30 pm
support for universal background checks. potentially funding mental healthcare or potential acts that will help close some of those background loopholes. there is no timeline for when the white house will roll the policies out. certainly there is nothing tougher than that that other people are calling for. >> part of the quheaj background checks is there is not agreement on how part background checks can go. republicans want to provide a loophole for private sales. democrats won't settle for anything less than universal background checks. even on that issue where a vast
2:31 pm
majority of americans support supporting loopholes. so the path forward is still unclear. >> he's talking about limiting the amount of ammunition in the magazine. >> those few non-starters. they haven't seen any in the merchandise administration or any republicans saying they would be in favor of that. texas senator ted cruz said if president trump makes a deal with democrats on guns conservatives will stay home in 2020. there is a lot of pressure on president trump to act on gun control and pressure to stay see you length and let the issue go because it could fire up his base. eric: in des moines, iowa, and before i get to that. let me read you some polls here at fox news we have on this
2:32 pm
issue. it shows requiring background checks on all gun buyers. 89% say they support that. a law requiring police take gunts away. overwhelming numbers of americans support that. we talk about a mandatory assault weapons buyback plan that caused so much controversy when beto o'rourke mentioned it at the debate. what are you hearing on the ground in iowa how this issue resonates with people. >> it's fascinating. even though nationally a lot of these policies have wide support in iowa. i heard from democrats that they saw that moment by beto joe o'rourke as a problem heading
2:33 pm
into next year's election. i heard from a number of democrats that they are concerned being painted as an anti-second amendment party, being painted as a party that's wants to grab your guns will hurt hem. i spoke to a democrat that lost in 2018 and he said he believes policies like o'rourke's will hurt them in rural areas. eric: the focus is not just on congress it's been gridlock there. moms demand action. the group fighting for gun control and gun measures. they have been focusing on state and local legislatures. here is shana watt talking about that progress. >> we passed red flag laws in 17
2:34 pm
states. we passed bills to disarm domestic abusers. so lawmakers in statehouses have learned how to work on this issue. eric: do you think they will get more progress on state and local levels than in the senate? i think we lost alex an dwra. all right. that happens. we apologize. arthel: new revelations on the massive damage the u.s.-imposed sanctions are have on the iranian economy. documents show the effects the sanctions are having on iran. rich edson has the story. >> a relentless economic assault tearing through iran's economy. that's what top officials see as
2:35 pm
the result of american sanctions. according to internal documents obtained exclusively by fox news. >> we think the iranian government will shrink by 12 to 14%. the documents show 17 of iran's 18 retirement funds are in the red. insolvency would potentially hit 7 million iranians who are senior citizens. they say iran spends tens of millions of dollars a year subsidizing critical products like drugs and food. oil exports before u.s. sanctions were around 2.5 million barrels a day. now they are around 160,000 barrels. iran's oil minister says our situation is worse than during the war. we didn't have such an export problem when iran was targeting
2:36 pm
our exports. >> secretary pompeo and i have been executing the president's maximum pressure campaign. the goal getting iran to negotiate or its nuclear weapons program and its aggression in the middle east. the iranian president says he will only meet with president trump if the u.s. lifts economic sanctions. the iranian regime calls the u.s. sanctions campaign economic terrorism and rekrerntly tweeted. tying bread and medicine to politics is to kill and starve people of into submission. ing. >> we would love our friends and allies to help bring iran to a place where it wants to act like a normal nation. reporter: the attention moves to

tropical storm humberto moving away from the islands. but the country continues to recover from the devastation. hurricane dorian ripped through the region and caused billions of dollars worth of damage. adam klotz is in the weather center. adam: the brunts of this system did miss the islands that really got beat up when dorian moved through the area. the storm sitting 70 miles to the north, gusting up to 65 miles an hour. the heavy rain and some of the strongest winds are staying north of this system and east of this system. that's typically the case when you talk about the dirty side of the storms and northeastern side of the storm. it doesn't mean they are entirely out of the woods. there will still be rain. we have tropical storm was across the bahama island.
2:43 pm
we had tropical storm watches across eastern florida. this storm is going to stay far enough out to sea that we won't see the tropical storm level conditions. the storm forecast moving sunday off the east of until before shooting back out to the atlantic ocean. we'll see rip current along the coast and oute rain band. they aren't going to reach tropical storm levels. again here is our official forecast and while put into motion for you. before you are making that turn, it intensifies. a category one hurricane climbing up to a category two hurricane. pay attention to bermuda. late into wednesday and early thursday, now a category two storm. we'll be thinking about bermuda
2:44 pm
when it makes this move. this is our future radar. it shows some of the outer band of rain. yes, we are going to see some rain and possibly some very choppy conditions along the coast. thankfully the tropical storm conditions will be staying farther out to sea. arthel: the devastation in the bahamas after hurricane dorian is presenting the island with several public health issues. we are bringing in dr. michael baden, a forensic pathologist and fox news contributor. i wanted to get you here, you hear the reporters in the field talking about the smell of death. what does that tell you? are the reporters and emergency rescue teams as well as people looking for loved ones exposed to diseases when they show up?
2:45 pm
>> they are exposed to diseases, but not from the decomposition of the bodies that cause the foul odors. it's been two weeks of 90-degree weather. the decomposition quickly develop under those circumstances. but the bodies may be decome posing but they don't cause any disease. what will cause disease is the sanitation of infrastructure that's been destroyed leading to the contamination of the water supply that can cause cholera as it did in haiti. in addition it has caused insects to develop rapidly and the mosquitoes can spread zika and deng fever.
2:46 pm
but the recovery of the bodies doesn't cause problems. arthel: does getting dna from the bodies debt more difficult as time goes on. >> even decomposed bodies can be obtained when removed from bone marrow or teeth. so the dna can be still found and identified. but right now they have 52 bodies they recovered. there are probably hundreds of people who died. many still undiscovered on the island, and many out to sea that will never be recovered. but the dna will help in identifying the bodies, but that will take time. arthel: it's gruesome and unfortunate. you have bodies that are not complete. you may have trouble trying to
2:47 pm
find apart from different bodies. >> that also true, if there has been some kind of separation from body parts, this dna can help identify where the body parts belong. the mortuaries there are full up and can't take any more bodies. arthel: according to officials the mortuaries are overwhelmed with victims. i don't know the bodies are in parts. i am just imagining what's happening on the ground. as a forensic pathologist, when you look at the devastation, what concerned you? >> what concerns us is identifying the remains, dental, dna, to get the right names on the death certificates. the cause of death may not be obvious in a disaster like this
2:48 pm
whether it's drowning or injuries that occurred before death. but the most of important thing is going to be identification of bodies. as you point out in a devastation like this, usually there isn't the kind of separation of body parts that occur in an airplane example. arthel: do you know if other forensic you can pathologists can try to help with identification of bodies? >> i am sure there are other forensic pathologists from england. the problem is going to be collect the remains and the identification will take time. the causes of death aren't as necessary as in other kind of disasters because of the extensive decomposition and the water effects. but there will be other forensic scientists, certainly dna people
2:49 pm
and dentists, and forensic you can pathologists will be assisting. >> the nightmare is far from over for the people of the bahamas. i wanted to be hour to keep attention on the story. >> it's important because there was a problem in past disasters and the families and their identifications for the families are extremely important even if the living people aren't recovered. arthel: dr. michael baden, thank you very much. eric: the united states, we finally have a new u.n. ambassador just in time for the new general assembly meetings that start in a couple weeks. ahead, what we can expect.
