mariano rivera. they played that song it gave me goose bumps. brian: i did not know. this this is very informative show so far. ainsley: i thought that was very creative that they used that song he is used to coming out. to say they choose their own song in basic? steve: right. yesterday the president, the first thing he said to mariano i was talking to the first lady why sandman because mariano puts the batter to sleep. and it's like right, mariano. ainsley: got it. got it. steve: that was great. more on that later on. latethe president was very busy, he spent 45 minutes on the stage in rio rancho, new mexico, at the santa ana star center. thousand people in attendance. a state that has voted democrat for a long time. he vows to make it red in 2020. ainsley: can he carry new mexico lost by 8 points in

2016 but mitt romney lost by 10 points in 2012. and he is narrowing the margin. brian: think about this. if new mexico's economy is revitalized because of energy and everybody on the left is talking about wind and solar and immediately transforming all oil and gas and essentially penalizing for it. and then you see the way that new mexico's state economy is thriving, the president thinks he has a pretty strong message. also i think his strategy is pretty clear in 2020. not only do i want to hold my midwest states i want to take minnesota, new hampshire, and new mexico. listen. >> it's been quite a while since a republican won this state. we are going to win this state. i think we are going to win this state. natural gas production. big story today. in new mexico has increased by 40%. that means great wages and good jobs.

story. the "times" is dead. long live the "new york times." long live the "new york times." and i do want it to live but they have to be -- they have to change their ways. steve: okay. so as you can see it was a wide ranging rally as most trump rallies are there in new mexico. if he is going to try to turn the state from blue to red. it's going to rely on support with hispanics. hispanics make up 49% of new mexico. he claimed last night that many hispanic voters support his wall and border security. and if that's true. maybe he has got a shot. ainsley: we have been following what's happening in saudi arabia with iran. he reminded the folks there that we're the number one producer of oil and energy. he said we are independent. he talked about the economy with the hispanic population number of new business applications has increased by more than 30% more then any other state since the

election. they are doing better when it comes to applying for small business applications than any other state. state.brian brad parscale made it clear a lot of democrats showing up at rallies especially the one in el paso that gave them the sense that hispanics are open to what trump is doing and not buying into the rhetoric that he is anti-hispanic like you see jorge ramos when he does his ridiculous partisan moderation of these debates. so that gives him hope. that's what karl rove was saying last night. start looking at the stats and take everyone's name down that shows up and put them on a list. my goodness i think we have a legitimate shot at places like new mexico which we will see in the end. i will tell you what, that was as enthusiastic as i have seen. they were pumped up and our reporters were saying there were thousands of people on the outside. ainsley: there were. individuals behind him. hispanics for president trump. many hispanics are catholic. he reminded the democratic party. they are not the democratic

party. democrat party. democratic sounds too nice. they are the party of high taxes, high crime, late-term abortion, speaking to that hispanic community. he said they're the party of socialism. they want to amy late mexico's economy. steve: brian, to your points that list that brad parscale circulates at the rallies that becomes part ever their database and people wind up with a million email blasts to remind them the president is doing and to go out to vote. the president later tonight is going to have that now famous fund raisener beverly hills. ed henry is actually there we are going to talk to him in about 5 minutes to find out who exactly we know is going to go there was that whole call about you have got to tell us who is going. apes ainsley he is on that three day string in california where is he expected to raise $15,000. democrats are ramping up calls now to eu78 peach supreme court justice brett kavanaugh. steve: it comes despite a

false sexual assault accusation thinly sourced we should say published in the "new york times." brian: last thing we need in this country is more divisive politics but that's what we have got. griff jenkins in washington: griff: they are slamming it. look, while most of the 2020 democratic field running for president are demanding kavanaugh's impeachment, yesterday house committee chairman jerry nadler making it clear he is not moving in that direction. >> frankly, we are concentrating our resources on determining whether to impeach the president. permanently i think the president ought to be impeached. griff: astronaut judiciary chair lindsey graham picking up on that tweeting simply if nadler isn't willing to go there no one should but someone is. ayanna pressley member of the so-called squad opening inquiry impeach piment. in a statement quote sexual predators do not deserve a seat on the nation's highest

court. brett kavanaugh's confirmation process set a dangerous precedent. weave must demand justice for survivors and hold kavanaugh accountability for his actions. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell took to the floor to blast the attacks on kavanaugh. >> this laughable suggestion is already earning scorn throughout the country, across the political spectrum. this is not just a left wing obsession with one man. it's part of a deliberate effort to attack judicial independence. griff: the president not off the hook. chairman nadler is holding hearings today as part of an impeachment inquiry. the focus, presidential obstruction of justice and abuse of power. brian, ainsley, steve? steve: all right. thank you very much. yesterday i think it was dick durbin commented about we don't want to be known as the impeachment party and then you also had jerry nadler we can't impeach kavanaugh we are busy impeaching the other party. meanwhile "the washington post" revealed apparently yesterday they had the story last year but they could not corroborate because key

figures would not cooperate so they passed on it last year. brian: "the washington post" passed on a story to slam the president? that's a story. steve: here is trey gowdy talking about what would happen if they did try to impeach the justice. >> impeachment is tantamount to the death penalty. that's not hyperbolic. it is the political death penalty. so these six are willing to give the death penalty in a case where the victim is not. punitive lawyer has never been cross-examined or examined. if he is a d.c. lawyer why didn't bring it up when brett kavanaugh was up for the d.c. court of appeals. those facts, no victim, an eyewitness no one has corroborated. no one has examined or cross-examined and failed to bring it up when he had an opportunity in the past. six democrats are willing to give the death penalty for that. ainsley: i will tell you what's so interesting when you talk to the writers, hear the writers being interviewed. two females who wrote the

original article. steve: the "new york times." ainsley: they were interviewed over the weekend and robin is one of those writers. she said they included a lot of this information in the original article. she said the female's name. her friends said she had no recollection of the event and she declined to be interviewed. that was all in the original. they have say the editors took some of that information out. steve: of the "new york times" story. ainsley: that's right. listen to. this we had her name and you know the "times" doesn't usually include the name of the victim. and so i think in this case the editors felt like it was better to remove it. in removing her name they removed the other reference she didn't remember. editing done in the haste of the editing process. >> were you involved in the decision to amend this and do the correction, the addition online to the piece. >> there was so much heat. you know, everyone has been seething on various aspects of this. we didn't want this to be an issue anymore. we never meant to mislead.

brian: "new york times" edit as book that the "new york times" wrote she said she in no word that an important point of the second accuser. the second accuser of brett kavanaugh does not remember the incident. and the lawyer that brought it forward that said he saw it, write him down as a part partisan attorney when he actually worked for bill clinton during the whole impeachment mess. you cannot pretend that stier, this attorney is nonsupport san and doesn't have a horse in this race. you can't pretend they are in a word count in the "new york times" opinion section as if they have to cut it back that she doesn't know and remember the incident that slanders and helps hurts to destroy the credibility of a sitting supreme court justice. ainsley: that's what is so ridiculous and the president was touching on that yesterday in the you will rally. so these ladies at the "new york times" adapted their article based on what was in that book. they included information

about who this lady was allegedly. and then the editors took that information out. when you ask the woman she doesn't remember. they have said the writer of this book said that brett kavanaugh exposed himself at a party when they were at yale. she doesn't remember it. now the president to his points said wait, they had to apologize. they had to clarify. they to change their story and now they want to impeach kavanaugh? steve: apparently they tell the whole story in the book. but it's when it went to the "new york times" where they are going to summarize it a little bit on the op-ed page and the editor made that mistake. ainsley: if you are going to accuse someone of something so bad you should probably include that information. the lady doesn't remember it. brian: inexcusable. steve: now the "new york times" looks like they did that on purpose. they had all the information. the "new york times" writers wrote the book it was right there. the editing error which is what that writer is suggesting is going to cost the "new york times" dearly. ainsley: they came out to clear their name saying we

originally had that information there n. there. brian: all because molly mollie hemmingway and carrie severino commented we have the book. by the time we came out monday we had the whole editor's note in there if it wasn't for mollie hemmingway and the research she did on this book and knew it was wrong the "new york times" would still be running with this and saying let's retry and impeach kavanaugh. steve: mollie got a copy of the book early and read it. she is going to be joining us in an hour on this channel. ainsley: that's why the president demands resignations and new management in the "new york times." remember when debra messing and eric mccormack wanted the names of the hollywood trump donors attended that trump fund raiser. they wanted the names released. the fund raiser is tonight. steve: ed henry got a trip to beverly hills. he is live next ♪ ♪ orlando isn't just the theme park capital of the world,

henry. i think he is right in front of the beverly hills sign out on the west coast. ed, what's the deal. ed: a little early out here, guys. steve: what's the deal with the shuttle buses. if you would go to a high dollar fundraiser you would imagine a limo, not a bus. ed: you are right. you would at least want a luxury suv out here. hollywood, it's emmys week. you want to be treated right, of course. right? but the bottom line is the reason why the trump campaign i'm told is being so tight-lipped with all these details. i talked to the campaign yesterday, is that you have these critics like debra messing basically trying what they say is name and shame people. blacklist people out here in hollywood if they attend the event. here's what we have learned. jeffrey palmer, who is this big real estate investor out here is supposed to be hosting this event in beverly hills. and he would basically go on and as you say there are shuttle buses. so they are telling you go to one address and then

basically the shuttle bus could take you anywhere to any one of his properties somewhere else so that critics are not standing outside knowing who is coming and going. debra messing, other critics as you mentioned out here in hollywood have been threatening to blacklist people make sure they don't get hired. they don't get into pictures. if they show up for a trump fundraiser. this highlights how ridiculous it's become because this is america. if you want to support somebody. give some money, you are supposed to be age to do it. the president, though, may be laughing all the way to the bank. we checked the numbers. look at this. so far in the 2020 election cycle the president has raised $124 million. bernie sanders 46 million. elizabeth warren 35 million. buttigieg 32 million. joe biden only 22 million. that's not a surprise because they are all out of office trying to become president. but it highlights the power of incumbency and just how far ahead the president is. so the critics are going to spend all this time out there with clip boards trying to figure out who is

coming and going at trump fundraisers, the president is laughing all the way to the bank. ainsley: ed, you think california there might be enough people to support him to attend one party but i'm reading there are four of them. ed: yeah. there is going to be some in northern california. palo alto, one in san diego tomorrow. after the president leaves here in beverly hills. here is another funny appear particular dote. i reached out yesterday to jon voight. he has been on this show. he is somebody who has been a very outspoken supporter of the president. one of the few out here in hollywood. he took my call and said ed, sorry, i'm not going to be out there i'm out in new york shooting ray donovan a new season on show time coming out in november. he laughed about it and said i don't know the details about this event that's how tight-lipped it is and jon voight is obviously an insider on this. that makes the point. jon voight and other actors who support the president they just want to work. they have got jobs. he is shooting ray donovan right now. they don't want to be

blacklisted simply because they're exercising their rights as americans. brian: even though the congressional seat has been flipped doesn't mean it's not conservative hot bed in portions of san diego. big military community out there as well. so if jon voight is not showing up. that only leaves kel say grammer and clinton eastwood. do you think either one of them are going? ed: yeah, they have to recruit those guys. you are absolutely right, brian. your broader point is a good one. part of the reason why republicans lost the house last time is because they lost so many republicans out here. you are right there. are some conservative strongholds. but you have got kevin mccarthy coming on the show, they need to make sure they get some of those districts back. steve: of course we will know the names of all of the people who attend because that is a public record when you donate a bunch of dough. brian: see you later go to the beach in between. steve: it will be pitch dark. meanwhile i understand we have 20 seconds. hundreds of college students refusing to work with one

people hear a word and decide to protest and don't really understand what's going on ice does so much good for our country and push back on these students don't you want secure borders? that's what they provide? don't you want to know there is human trafficking coming into our country, if there are drugs coming into our country, if there are terrorists coming into our country? we need ice to protect us. if you want to talk about what ice does and how it does it that's a legislative issue. if you want to talk about government and controlling government. what ice does is violationly important to us. >> is this one of the examples you bring up in your book why america is broken. >> absolutely. america is broken. i believe greatly in our country. this idea much fake news and fake information. the fact that they are talking about migrant camps. concentration camps. they are not concentration camps. these are people coming into our country illegally on their own volition so there is a lot of fake news out there and that's part of what i talk about in our

broken america. ainsley: we hear about broken america. >> we are so divided. how do we fix this and come together? >> i think it's very hard and the reality is i totally believe the solution is not a government controlled system. we know that doesn't work it. doesn't work in venezuela it. didn't work in russia. it doesn't work anywhere. what really has to happen is building our families and communities and that requires real hands on work. part of that is let me give you a statistic. 64% of democrats and 55% of republicans have few or no friends in the opposite party. ainsley: part of we are not talking to each other. >> exactly. quite frankly we need to talk to each other and talk to each other about areas we disagree like ice and do so calmly, with facts and information and to be able to be in community with each other even when we don't agree. ainsley: sometimes it's not even worth if if you think about some of the conversations you might have with friends at the opposite party if you are sitting at

the dinner table it's so divisive and you start to argue sometimes it's not even worth bringing it up. we would love to have those intelligence dialogues. >> right. i have felt that way frankly for a very long time. i finally wrote this book because i was tired of being quiet. i have heard a lot of people yell at me quite frankly for things they thought my father did. i finally began to say feel free to yell at me if you want that doesn't solve anything. i'm going to take it calmly when you finish i'm going to talk about the facts and truth and what's really happening. it's amazing once you do that it kind of breaks the cycle because of they have gotten everything out. if you join in the rage. so i have a 20-pound dog named bunny who barks at everything. barks, barks, barks, bunny barking, if you bark at everything that's what happens. you are bunny barking. a lot of noise but no real solution. ainsley: so much at stake and our country is so important. thank you so much, jackie. go pick up her book "our broken america" why bont sides need to stop ranting

manufacturing fund in corning. sole we are more than doubling down a quarter of a billion dollars and it's going to go towards further advanced technologies, retrofitting processes for the future. and we couldn't be more excited. >> so a huge investment inside this corning facility which actually since 2006 has been making the super strong glass that has been on the iphone since it's rollout in 2007. steve: bret, famously, when steve jobs introduced the first iphone he held one up and it had a plastic screen. and then, you know, a week or two later he was complaining to the engineers this is getting all scratched up. this phone will not launch with a plastic screen. it's got to be glass and that's why they turned to corning. >> that is absolutely the story. we heard about the famous phone call that steve jobs made to the corning people

to tell them initially that your glass sucks. but then corning said wait a minute, we have a solution for you. they worked on it. the people here in this factory worked on it. they managed to get it on the phone before the phone shipped with a very short deadline and as we have been walking around the factory the past day or so seeing the people that work here, being here in the community where corning is very large employer. very well established brand here. these people are passionate about what they are doing. we heard jeff williams addressing the group here. it's not the apple investment that has made this factory work. it's not the apple investment making the gorilla glass so amazing. it's really the people here so dedicated to what they're doing. it's an amazing story when you think about the iphone. it's obviously a run away hit. billions of these devices are all over the world. one of the most important parts of it, the part that you come in contact with made right here in kentucky. ainsley: that's really cool.

>> we asked again about the advanced manufacturing funneled. apple is really getting into making sure that their american suppliers have the support that they need to create the products that they need to put into their devices and also support american jobs. take a listen to what jeff williams had to say about that. >> the focus of the fund when we launched it, the focus was on improving technologies, advancing innovation and manufacturing processes. and trying to sustain and push the kind of jobs that we think are right for the united states just like the jobs here in corning. >> so some cool -- definitely some cool stuff. i'm going to slip this in my pocket. i'm not going to slip this in my pocket when i get back to new york. i don't want any problems going through security. ainsley: don't take that baggy of white powder. i'm so excited that they are developing this or doing this in kentucky. that's awesome for the folks who live there. more jobs. i just wish they could make it sat irproof. i have an iphone that's

diminishing one of them for reasons with nothing to do with understanding of the law. that will undermine the court. we don't know exactly what happened here. did the fbi know about this and not investigate it? that's a serious issue. were the questions to then judge kavanaugh sufficient to have triggered an explanation of this and did he not answer truthfully? that's a serious issue. can he be impeached? look, the constitution says impeachment is for treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors. this phrase is not in the constitution but we understand it to mean committed during office. it also would pertain to committed while attempting to get into office. brian: i can help you with this stier according to chuck grassley chairman of judiciary he never heard of this stier accusation and we know the victim doesn't remember anything. >> sphir is the alleged witness. the victim says she doesn't remember anything. brian: grassley said i talked to my staff. we never heard anything about him. >> right.

according to the "new york times" stier and two others claim to have witnessed. this according to senator jeff coons, he informed the fbi, according to senator grassley they know nothing about it. did the fbi drop the ball. was the fbi restrained in its efforts to look at this because the president wanted the confirmation hearings over. here's an interesting one. can justice kavanaugh sue the "new york times." ainsley: for libel? >> we know the standard is. steve: actual malice. >> actual malice means did the "new york times" publish something they knew was false or did they publish it in reckless disregard to whether it was true or false? is leaving out of the article the true statement that the victim does not recall this alleged event reckless disregard for the truth? he may actually have a case there. however, this is not going to happen. he doesn't want to sue the "new york times." that's going to open up pandora's box for him. steve: judge, thank you very much. >> pleasure, guys.

hudson. good to see you again. >> good morning, good to see you. ainsley: tell us some of the things they don't want us to know. >> immigration the political left in america has claimed for decades that strong border security is something that hispanics won't support. and the establishment media has simply failed to report the fact that a majority of border patrol agents are actually hispanic. there are democrats in congress today that loudly support a strong immigration security a decade ago but they currently fight the trump administration's plan to build a wall along the southern border. but, yet, those same democrats continuously vote for spending bills in which the american taxpayer is left to foot the bill to the fine of billions of dollars to provide security in other countries. steve: and, in fact, last night the president in new mexico mentioned that a lot of hispanics in new mexico and elsewhere are for the border wall and border

protection as well. what won't the left tell us about climate change. >> in the book i write that the environment protection agency recently reported that carbon emissions from energy output in the united states is at its lowest level since 1992. now, hollywood elites and the establishment media will tell you are so busy actually screaming that america needs to lead and do more on climate change they are so busy doing that they fail to realize thought united states has actually reduced its carbon emission levels for nearly three decades. steve: why wouldn't they want to tell anybody that. >> that's a long time. the democrats are pushing a 16 trillion-dollar green new deal bill that will certainly raise taxes on the middle class and fundamentally transform the united states economy as we know it. but those same democrats can't explain their plan to force the world's largest polluters, endia, china, and russia to reduce their carbon emissions levels.

the had 9,000 people in attendance at that event. wide ranging as all trump rallies are given the news about the allegations against brett kavanaugh about college misconduct and how the "new york times" had to walk that story back yesterday, the president said it's time for some folks there to call it quits. here's the president in new mexico. >> the left tries to threaten, bully, intimidate americans into submission. they try to blacklist, coerce, cancel or destroy anyone who gets in their way. look at what they are doing today to justice kavanaugh. look at what they are doing. [crowd boos. did you see what democrats? they are calling for his resignation. they're calling for his impeachment and the woman involved said she didn't know anything so the "new york times" had to put out a major apology.

and they had to change their story and they still want him to be impeached. i call for the resignation of everyone at the "new york times" involved in the kavanaugh smear story. [cheers] >> and while you are at it, the russian witch-hunt hoax, which is just as phony a story. they have taken the old great lady and broken her down, destroyed her virtue and ruined her reputation. she can never recover. and will never return to greatness under current management. the "times" is dead. long live the "new york times." long live the "new york times." and i do want it to live. but they have to be -- they have to change their ways. brian: yeah, so the president of the united states is referring to a story that happened over the weekend. editorial note was added to that talked about another woman at yale who the report

was a -- now lawyer. they said nonpartisan lawyer. they forgot the fact that he worked for clinton during the impeachment proceedings. so if you say he has an agenda, you wouldn't have far to go. just check his resume. number two is this guy said something similar happened to what debbie ramirez said i'm not going to get into details nor do you want me to about something that happened at a yale party that was out of control a second woman. the problem left is out of the story thanks to mollie hemmingway digging it up and getting a copy of the book. the authors reveal that the woman doesn't remember the incident. that was left out of the story. it didn't stop almost every presidential candidate not named amy klobuchar and joe biden for calling for justice kavanaugh to be impeached. steve: brian, what you are saying it was in the book but the "new york times" left the detail about the woman couldn't remember anything out of the "new york times" article. ainsley: writers say they put it in. they read the book. they took excerpts from the book. wrote an article about it in the "new york times." they said they originally put the girl's name in

there. they put in there that her friends said she had no recollection of the event and she declined to be interviewed but then the writers, who were on some of the sunday shows over the weekend said the editors read our article and they took that information out. they still printed it. brian: i would like to add two things the "new york times" news section is now saying we will pitch this by our reporters they write usually the "wall street journal's" -- the wall street stories. and we walked away from it because of this. "the washington post" said yeah, we had this story a year ago. we didn't print it because there was not enough in it. steve: we couldn't corroborate the story. that's the problem for the "new york times." they left out that big detail that the gigantic blockbuster story. the woman involved could not -- would not comment on it. and did not remember it. sarah sanders once upon a time the president's spokesperson revealed the biggest problem for the news media is -- well, it has to do with the president. watch. >> they are still mad that he won in 2016.

and they are mad that he is winning every single day for this country. i think it is incredibly sad that the media and democrats would rather see the president fail than our country succeed. i hope that they will start to learn from some of these major mistakes that have happened over the last couple weeks and start holding people accountable. the biggest problems that the media has is they want to question everybody else's credibility when the whole world is doubting theirs. they hated that he was able to start delivering on all the things that he said he was going to, including a conservative court. brian: look at that crowd. see to her point about the conservative court in the "wall street journal" today on the op-ed page, it talks a little bit about how so far the president has been able to confirm 150 judges to the courts across the country. and the "wall street journal" writes that for the political left one motivation is that everything on the left's agenda. green new deal, wealth tax, et cetera, depends on favorable court rulings and, you know, if they feel there

is a 5-4 split a little more conservative, they would like to have a brush back against brett kavanaugh to remind them they are there watching. brian: you know, the overall strategy is vilify trump, kavanaugh, and mitch mcconnell and get the senate and get the presidency and make sure you get back the house -- get back the supreme court. steve: but that involves doing it the old fashioned way where you actually win during the campaign and on election day. didn't win the presidency. didn't win the senate. now they are looking. brian: so if you don't win, you know whether you win or lose it's how you play the game. steve: name of your book. brian: a little bit. but let's make the court bigger. let'sed a justices and throw out the electoral college. keep changing the rules until i win. ainsley: journalism you have to be so responsible and you have to be -- you have to -- this is the guy's life. he is married. he has little girls. brian: coached basketball.

ainsley: continue to rake him over the coals without much proof or evidence. they need to be careful. steve: in addition to everything else, there are calls on capitol hill to impeach justice kavanaugh. griff jenkins joins us from our nation's capital. griff: brian, you mentioned mcconnell hole is the second most powerful republican in the country he has had enough of these attacks on justice kavanaugh. listen. >this laughable suggestion is already earning scorn throughout the country, across the political spectrum. this is not just a left wing obsession with one man. it's part of a deliberate effort to attack judicial independence. griff: while most of the 2020 democrats harris, booker, warren, beto castro are all demanding house impeachment. committee chairman jerry nadler isn't going there. >> frankly, we are con sen trading our resources on determining whether to impeach the president. personally i think the president ought to be

impeached. griff: that prompted lindsey graham to tweet if nadler isn't willing to go there, no one should go there but someone is massachusetts congresswoman ayanna pressley remember of the so-called squad introducing a resolutions to open dispeevment inquiry today saying this in a statement. sexual predators do not deserve a seat on the nation's highest court and brett kavanaugh's confirmation process set a dangerous precedent. we must for survivors and hold kavanaugh accountable for his actions. now the president also not off the hook. chairman nadler holding hearings today into quote presidential obstruction of justice and abuse of power. brian, ainsley, steve. steve: all right, griff. thank you very much. meanwhile, great sound bite from victor david hanson, hoover institute fellow, he says the left is attacking constitutional principles. watch this. >> they are saying to america you can elect your president, but he can't govern if we investigate him for 22 months.

you can nominate a supreme court justice. you can have hearings. you can confirm him, but we are going to say so many terrible things and demonize him for all practical purpose render him emass lated. what we are really doing they are saying to us we don't have the influence to overturn the constitution but we can pressure people through economic boycotts or intimidation or physical violence so that that will infringe on your ability to speak freely and that's what the -- what it is. it is a totality of revolutionary pressure to undo the constitutional rights that we all enjoy. brian: they are still doing it to the president. ainsley: another investigation, right? brian: still doing it to the president. now they want nine years of his tax returns. the attorney general is investigating. why? why is she even investigating? steve: comes back to see how rich the president is or how many he paid or did not pay. brian: i would love to see how rich carley shimkus is. i don't ask her. i don't ask for an investigation. carley: you would love to see my taxes? that would be very boring.

our border, immigration. review of all these tech companies. this is the committee that has jurisdiction over it. he is doing nothing. what about bringing in inspector general horowitz who just had this whole report on the department of justice. that's what normal congresses do on the committee. they bring in any inspector general that investigated. think about all the stuff that he found about comey and everything else. shouldn't you at least have a hearing on that? but is he too imriz some imaginary thing. brian: here is the thing, leader mccarthy, is he actually could do that because comey was just as hard on hillary clinton, you could argue, as he was on president trump there is plenty of controversy to hone in on and maybe talk about reforming the fbi. you look at the democratic party and say why are though focusing on impeachment. they did a poll. only 10% of democrats believed they should go forward with impeachment hearings. >> it's not just a poll. if you go out on the presidential campaign with democrats, nobody asked about it. they just had a full debate,

not one question about impeachment. the other sad news is there wasn't one question about the economy. because the democrats had nothing to do with making this strong economy. the strongest one we have had in the last 50 years. they don't want to talk about it because that's the reason to believe why president trump is going to get reelected. brian: so you have more retirements on the right and a quest to get the house back and i know is your goal and make you speaker more than likely. had you about 15 retirements already some of them in key districts in texas. how do you explain that. >> you know what? two years ago we had key retirement, too. ted poe amazing man. i never knew of this man named dan crenshaw. he has now come in is he doing a tremendous job this is healthy. all of the retirements except one in this cycle is in a safe republican seat. i talked to one who has been i can't go you 100 percent to win the majority. let's bring in new people at the same time.

this is about a revolution not a retirement. brian: couple of things. >> remember what just happened in north carolina. we just won two seats. in 2018 we had only won that seat by 900 votes. we -- dan bishop just won it by more than 4,000. that simple increase would automatically increase 13 more seats in congress and we only need 19 for the majority. brian: congressman, a couple other things. this week the president says word is going to come out some type of gun reform. what do you hope is in it if anything. >> this is the difference with democrats. look how they don't believe in the rule of law. they don't believe in getting the facts. they want to lash out. here is a president sitting down with law enforcement both sides of the aisle, give me all the information and let's find some solution to the problem. brian: politically, is it smart for a republican president to do something on guns when it is -- has a lot to do with his base? >> it's smart for any president to solve a problem to make sure this doesn't happen again. just as the president took

away the bump stock that the obama put in after las vegas. just as he did something with the national instant criminal background check when he saw what happened. brian: do you think something is going to happen this week? >> i know this president. he tries to find solutions. i'm not for sure if it's this week but i know he is gathering the information. nobody wants this to carry on. brian: usmca, is it going to get a vote. >> there is one person who decides that but let me tell you this. in the last month mexico became our number one trader. canada became number two. we are negotiating with china to make the next century ours. america would be stronger if we have usmca pass before the president xi jinping in november. brian: nancy pelosi has not told you what dismee is going to do. >> she has not told me. brian: if you put it up for a vote would would pass? >> i know it would pass. brian: general motors strike entering day two. what could a gm shopper do. what does it mean for car

only at 2%. 98% of the way to go. it's affecting all across the country. g.m. plants. 19 states at the moment are currently striking over 46,000 employees are taking part. one source told fox business that the conversations are pretty tense right now. they went into the evening. a major sticking point was bringing mexico -- bringing production back from mexico into the united states. g.m. though using its cards saying it won't pay the healthcare benefits of these workers past this month. so as of october 1st they will have to tap into an emergency strike fund. obviously that hurts a lot of employees, including jennifer atkins who commented about her healthcare benefits. listen in. >> just not fair. especially with our health insurance. we destroy our bodies every day. i have already had two surgeries in the past two years because of the work that i do. >> as for jennifer and many

others, the strike continues here. g.m. could lose millions of dollars each day, each passing day that they are not producing cars. it seems right now, according to the sources we are hearing, they are not any closer to a deal. negotiations will continue today in detroit. back to you guys. steve: which is what all those people are striking on christina. thank you. ainsley: thank you. steve: purdue pharma filed for bankruptcy after agreeing to estimated 10 billion-dollar settlement to resolve thousands, i believe 2,000 lawsuits connected to the opioid crisis. brian: our next guest lost her sister jenny to opioid overdose in 2017 and said this is just the tip of the iceberg calling the epidemic 20 years conspiracy against patients in a new op-ed. ainsley: that author kelly o'connor joins us now to explain. good morning, kelly. >> good morning. thank you for having me. ainsley: you are welcome. tell us about your story. >> sure. so my sister jenny died in 2017. 71,000 people died that year

of a drug overdose. jenny was just one of them. she was 44 years old. suburban mom. college graduate. and i was really blind sided by it. i wasn't educated about opioid use disorder. our family never talked about it. so, i tried to tell our story as much as i can so other people don't make the same mistakes we did. i mean, i would have done anything for my sister. she never asked. just one in 10 people to struggle with opioids seek treatment. we have to fix this. brian: how did she start? >> i think it started with just being on kind of this uncoordinated cocktail of pain meds after some surgeries. we don't know but that's what i have been able to piece together. steve: right. and kelly, so, purdue pharma has, you know, they filed bankruptcy and now that throws 2,000 lawsuits into limbo, it looks like, you know, ultimately they could all be tossed out. however, some have

suggested, you know what? maybe we will go after the sackler family which, for the most part, owned that company. is that something you think a lot of the victims families are considering? >> oh, of course. i mean, i'm not a legal expert or a medical expert. i'm just someone's sister. but i think these lawsuits are a good thing. they give me hope because the truth is coming out, right? americans are learning what's happened over the past 20 years. stories unbelievable. not just purdue. it's the whole ecosystem. gross negligence. this incredibly predatory behavior. but if money is coming out of theist lawsuits that can be put towards patient centered solutions that's fantastic there is a lot of blame to go around. and i take some of that myself as a family member. i wasn't educated. and i could have done more as well. so i'm cautiously hopeful. ainsley: kelly, did you see the signs? was she taking the pills without anyone knowing and

then who do you blame for this? was she doctor-shopping and then also, how is her family doing? her kids? >> so we are like most families, we are heart-broken. we are angry. we are getting through it. so, i believe my sister was going to doctors getting pain medication. she didn't talk about it. and, again, i think there is a lot of shame around this disease. so, you know, video done anything for my sister to help her. but she never asked. brian: yeah. and it just seems if you are going to a doctor and getting it the right way, people think of drug abuse as someone going behind a corner, going to a rundown section of your town and doing something illicit. you feel like you are following the rules. >> exactly. and what's sad is that many doctors aren't certified in addiction medicine. lots of doctors can't prescribe the meds you need for medication assisted

treatment. there are many root causes and it's not just one fix. it's not just law enforcement or just treatment. there's a whole -- a number of root causes that we really need to fix to make it easier for patients to access treatment. but it's a fixable problem and the good news is we know how to fix it. we just need the political will to do it. steve: indeed. read her op-ed in the washington examiner. kelly o'connor, thank you very much. >> thank you. ainsley: i'm so sorry for your loss. steve: purdue pharma did put out a statement regarding the bankruptcy settlement. this bankruptcy framework avoids wasting hundreds of millions of dollars and years on protracted litigation and instead will provide billions of dollars and critical resources to communities trying to cope with the opioid crisis. all right. there you have got it. 29 minutes now before the top of the hour. ainsley: "new york times" reporters playing the blame game. reporters say it's the editor's fault for taking out the key details about the victims.

times" wrote this article based on that book. robin and then kate kelly. here is robin speaking about what was taken out of her original article, she says. listen. >> we had her name. and, you know, the "times" doesn't usually include the name of the victim. >> right. >> so i think in this case the editors felt like maybe it was better to remove it. in removing her name they removed the other reference tout fact that she didn't remember. i think it was an editing done in the haste in the editing process. >> were you involved in the decision to amend this and do the correction, the addition online to the piece. >> we felt there was so much heat. everyone has been seething on various aspects of this we didn't want this to be an issue anymore. we never intended to mislead in any way. ainsley: they never intended to mislead and editors were acting in haste. they happened to forget to put in her friends -- they actually took it out her friends said they had no recollection of the events. she declined to be interviewed and the female's name. >> yes. i do agree that the editors

are also reporters. not just the reporters. really the entire institution is to blame. they shouldn't just pass it off on the reporters. having said that in npr interview that aired yesterday these reporters did the exact same thing. they made it sound like they had a credible story about a woman and they hid the fact that the woman dnged it ever happened. brian: really? i did not know that. >> you cannot blame that on editors. hour long interview. plenty of time to discuss it. brian: dumping on the opinion editor of the opinion section of the "times" i put it in there and they cut it out on haste. selling that angle. report today the "new york times" news section walked away from the story. they said there wasn't enough in it. that's how it ended up in the opinion section. "the washington post" said we had a year ago. not enough there to print it. what does that say to you? >> well, i mean, i think that's obvious that there is not enough there to go into a news section. and it really says something about what their standards were in reporting this. now, i recently wrote a book on the kavanaugh confirmation justifiable on trial. we interviewed more than 100 people. we got all of our facts

right. we'll didn't traffic in gossip. and we told the accurate story of what happened. so i know it can be done. and there's no excuse for how they did this. steve: you know, mollie though, this gives ammunition to the president and the president's supporters to say hey, look, the "new york times," they are out to get me and my guys. >> i mean, yes. it does give ammunition because it's absolutely true that they are running some kind of campaign against this man and that they are unwilling to let it go. even though they did correct their story to admit that the entire premise was false, they kept going yesterday. they are still running stories about impeachment, which is really an absurd idea. at some point decent people are going to have to stand up against. this it is worth noting that no one has been held accountable for what's been done to this man. no one on the senate judiciary committee was held accountable for their violation of norms. attorneys who lied to their clients were not held accountable. criminal referrals sent to the department of justice for false statement. no action has been taken on them. and the media keeps being allowed to continue in this smear campaign. i think decent people,

regardless of their politics are just looking at this and saying is there no end to this? when will they stop? steve: mollie, to one of your last points, the criminal referrals that were made to the department of justice, people who, you know, supposedly were not factual in their testimony, you know, is there no consequence for lying in fronts of congress? >> apparently not. because those referrals were made and there is no indication of any action. i actually put in. steve: why is that? >> i actually requested to find out from the department of justice if any action had been taken and have not heard back of any action taken. it is important that people be held accountable for making false statements. but not just the people who made false statements but people who trafficked in them. there were senators who violated committee norms and procedures. there is a new chairman of that committee, lindsey graham, he did a really interesting thing during the hearing. he said something that people found really interesting. about no action has been taken. there are so many things you could be doing to investigate just how that letter leaked or why people violated norms and procedures. those things are important

to do. brian: do you know what they're focusing on now in the fbi didn't do a thorough investigation extra two weeks before they voted. remember when flake got together with coons and they decided to not vote and put it off for a week? now that's the focus. >> they are actually saying that someone should be impeached because the fbi didn't investigate a situation where a woman says she was not the victim of any crime that doesn't make any sense. there should be tough questions to people who even make that sound like that's a legitimate thing to do. i realize it was difficult for a certain group of people to lose the 2016 elections. but what has happened in the intervenes years is a temper tantrum that refuses to accept that reality whether it's the russia hoax or the kavanaugh hoax or whatever the next hoax is going to be. so people need to be held accountable when they perpetrate these kind of things. brian: or else it will never stop. fbi director wray will be on capitol hill in october. you know all the questions will be about this. even though we are in the middle of this little

problem we are having with iran and so much international -- so many international challenges that we have. >> well, wray should be asked some questions about what the fbi was doing over the course of the last few years. but i would say focus on, again, the russia hoax and that agency's role in perpetuating it. ainsley: all these investigations. thank you so much, mollie, good job. >> thank you. steve: mollie's book is called "justifiable on trial" want to see an accurate story that's it. beto o'rourke doubling down on taking your guns away he says texas is behind it? >> texans who own ar-15s they told me this themselves i don't need this. i don't need it to hunt or to protect myself. brian: all of them told the excongressman. texas attorney general kennel paxton is here to see if he talked to anyone who wants to keep their guns ♪ ♪ out in the back woods ♪ out in the holler ♪ out in the back woods insuran, ♪ b s one?

steve: sure. mr. paxton, you know we have already heard from some democrats along with a lot of republicans who said, look, that sound bite of beto o'rourke at that debate last week is going to be played for a very long time. so that when republicans make the argument, democrats are coming for your guns, they play the bite. it's like told you. >> absolutely. it's certainly a comment that i think most texans would not react well to and haven't reacted well to. maybe it plays some nationally in states that he is trying to win. but it certainly doesn't play well in texas. steve: what do you think the people of texas would be interested in because the presidents' team of the communications team said that he is interested in some sort of bipartisan solution to the problem with guns. what -- you know, for your money, what would that be? >> you know, i think we need to do a better job securing our schools, our businesses our churches. people need to be better prepared. we need more law enforcement involved in protecting those

different aspects of our society. nothing is going to work perfectly. but there are certainly things we can do to protect our citizens better. steve: we were talking just a couple of minutes ago with a woman whose sister died from oxycontin as a result of being addicted to it. i know that you sued that company last year for deceptive trade practices. just curious, how you feel about the fact that they have now, as part of their settlement, declared bankruptcy. >> well, they clearly have mislead doctors and the medical profession about the consequences of their drugs, oxycontin in particular. the fact that they filed bankruptcy, i'm not surprised. we have been working put family and the company to work out a settlement. and we are taking a settlement in to bankruptcy with 29 other attorney generals. we feel hopeful we are in the end going to provide resources to people who have suffered as a result of some of the things that purdue has done.

steve: do you think additional lawsuits will go after the sackler family which is behind purdue pharma. >> there are certainly other states that are proposing that. i don't think it's the best solution. i think the best solution is to try to work something out in bankruptcy. a lot of those assets are overseas in foreign trusts. there is many, many different family members. it would take years to track those down. there is no guarantee we would ever get to those assets in these other countries. steve: let's see what happens next. he is the attorney general for the great state of texas. ken paxton, thank you very much for joining us today. >> have a great day. thanks. steve: all right. meanwhile, what are voters in new mexico saying this morning after president trump's rally in new mexico last night? we are live is todd piro. he is coming up next. ♪ ♪ s. leading them to discover: we're woven together by the moments we share. everything you need, all in one place. expedia.

trump is a danger to the country and that we need to do the best we can to protect our first amendment rights. >> he is a clear and present danger to our democracy. he should absolutely be impeached. >> anyone but trump. anyone but trump. >> i thought he was a racist long before he became president. >> how do you respond to the latinos and native americans ohio just spoke to in the other line who support the president and say he is not a racist? >> we call that roach parade or chickens for kfc oxymoron. makes no sense. todd: those are some harsh words there from some of those protesters. we talked to not just about immigration. we talked about a bunch of other issues from the economy to the new allegations against justice ceafn to the big question why trump was here. do you think that president trump can flip this notoriously blue state red come 2020? some great answers coming up in the next hour. guys, back to you. steve: hey, todd, did you talk to anybody who was going to the rally last night who said i didn't vote for him last time but i'm

we've been talking about it this morning. they had it a year ago. they decided not to go with it because they could not corroborate the story. that was the problem that we heard with these, the blockbuster that came out yesterday where they had to add editorial note, the woman who apparently was the victim of this inappropriate behavior by then in college, brett kavanaugh, she would not talk to the reporters and in fact could not remember it and then the person who apparently told other people would not talk to the reporters about it. it was only what he said/she said and that's how "the new york times" depicted it. brian: yale will have problems getting students if all the stories keep emerging. sounds like a whole college of "animal house." one crazy dorm story after another. ainsley: you think people who get accepted to yale -- brian: probably not go. they will go to their local community college. ainsley: democrats ramp up calls to impeach supreme court justice

allegedly. they send that to the editors. the editors, cording to these writers took some of the details, the main details out. listen to one of the original writers. this is robin. >> we had her name and you know "the times" doesn't usually include the name of a victim. >> right. >> i think in this case the editors felt like maybe it was probably better to remove it. in removing their name they removed the other reference to the fact she didn't remember it. i think it was done in the haste of editing process. >> were you involved in the decision to amend this and dot addition online to the piece? >> there was so much heat, there is so much, everyone has been seizing on various aspects of this we certainly didn't want this to be an issue anymore. we certainly never intended to mislead in any way. steve: it has become a big issue. ainsley: they didn't intend to mislead? steve: "the new york times" had to write the editor's note, yeah, we left that out. sorry about that. ainsley: biggest part of the

story? steve: it calls into question who can corroborate this. the answer was nobody. then there is this story apparently, remember christine blasey ford, she testified on capitol hill about misconduct from brett kavanaugh when he was in college. now one of her high school friends who supposedly was at one of these parties, leland keyser challenge as christine blasey ford's story. she says, she didn't remember any of the stuff she is talking about. she says it doesn't add up. the quote is, it would be i amable pour me, this is leland keyser speaking it would be impossible for me at only girl at get together with three nice, have her leave, not figure out how she is getting home. she told the reporter i just didn't have confidence in the story. brian: between that story, christine blasey ford, swetnick story that michael avenatti involved with, there is so many farce along with this we thought

it was in our rear view mirror but when this came out, mollie hemingway, her book a best-seller, did a thorough investigation into this and she didn't know where that came from. listen. >> they're running some kind of campaign against this man. they're unwilling to let it go, even though they did correct the story to admit the entire mem press was false. they are still running stories about impeachment. no one has been held accountable for what has been done to this man. no one on the senate judiciary committee was held accountable for violation of norths. attorneys who lied to their client were not held accountable. criminal referrals sent to the department of justice for false statements, no action was taken on them. the media continues to be allowed to continue in a smear campaign. brian: those two writers hopped on msnbc to correct the record that they put in here that the woman doesn't remember the incident. that justice kavanaugh is

accused of acting poorly in, inappropriately in, they were on npr according to mollie hemingway, they were not contrite. they weren't qualifying it. they were not talking about the editorial, the editorial free-lancing that the opinion section of the "new york times" did. what about the sincerity with lawrence o'donnell last night? if you look at the npr interview according to mollie hemingway, they don't show any contriteness. ainsley: when you talk about something so egregious especially a man who has a wife and kids you have to get the story correct. this is someone's life. you work so hard, one person tells a story, i have this source someone tells me yet this witness said it doesn't happen or doesn't remember it, come on there needs to be some sort of accountability here. steve: there is op-ed in "the wall street journal" says so much it is just a campaign against him because it is political.

"will & grace" stars debra messing and eric mccormack demanded the donors be publicly named. brian: although they are happy in these pictures i don't think they're happy about the backlash they received about this. fox news correspondent ed henry is proud to use his name and proud to be in los angeles. you're not invited to the fund-raiser, right? reporter: we can't even find out where it is. it is so tight-lipped. i'm in beverly hills, if you're in california, come out to say hi. it is interesting. the reason they're being tight-lipped because you have all these people on the left, particularly in hollywood who are saying number one, they will blacklist people, they will black ball them. they will make sure they never work in this town again if they show their face at a trump fund-raiser. as you know, steve pointed this out earlier, this is public information. eventually people will know who donates the money to any campaign, whether beto o'rourke or president trump. but in the meantime they want to

get this information out to hurt people. that is clearly not the american way. you should have the freedom to donate to people, freed dim to support people, speak out on behalf of the president or any democratic candidates. a lot of people out here in california who apparently don't believe in that principle. but the president he is laughing all the way to the bank. it is not just one event here in beverly hills. he is doing four fun raisers throughout the state over the next 24 hours or so he is far ahead of democrats in the money chase. steve: ed, what is the deal? we understand a number of these people that will go to this fund-raising event are not being given the address. they're being told to where to get on the shuttle bus. brian: pathetic. reporter: right. let me explain what we know about that jeffrey palmer, is a big real estate investor out here. he is known as president trump's money man in as loss. there are reports that he is hosting one of the beverly hills fund-raisers where i am tonight. i called his office yesterday. they didn't deny he is doing it

but wouldn't confirm it either because they don't want to talk about it. they want to have the events, do it in peace. the shuttle bus question, they will give you a piece of paper if you commit you will write a check. show up at this hotel or this address. there will be a shuttle bus that will actually take you either to mr. palmer's home or his friends house or something like that. the point they don't want to put the host of the fund-raiser's address in there. then all the hollywood stars will try to black ball by going to the address, waiting outside with a clipboard and piece of paper i'm taking names. that is pretty un-american, if you think about it. folks in hollywood who have spoken out about those kind of tactics in the past, mccarthyism should probably look in the mirror. steve: those people in the hotels better make sure they wind up on the right shuttle bus, they will wind up at lax, just saying. reporter: the other thing if it's a hotel here in beverly hills, i want to ask ainsley,

"the new york times" corrected a report on another supposed allegation, let me say another allegation of sexual misconduct against supreme court justice brett kavanaugh. easy for me to say. ainsley: the paper revising its original story to say the alleged victim involved has no memory of it happening. brian: a new op-ed, our next guest says "the times" report clearly does not add up. joining us "new york post" columnist miranda devine. welcome back. what bothers you the most what you read over the weekend and the editorial note. >> that a prestigious, elite

newspaper, "the new york times," would publish a story, pretending to be a fresh allegation of against supreme court justice but all of this is rumor wrapped in innuendo and hearsay. it is not a story. the news section of "the new york times" we discovered rejected the story. they buried in the review section, opinion section on sunday. they didn't run it as a story even though it was presented as a bombshell. this is journalistic malpractice. steve: the suggestion from the op-ed piece, this new allegation was so close to the deborah ramirez allegation, she and her lawyers gave the fbi and senate investigators list of 25 different names and the fbi dropped the ball, they never investigated those people? >> this is again they don't actually name those 25 people. we don't know if they have even interviewed them. yet they just throw this ball up in the air for others to catch,

pretending there was fbi conspiracy to allow brett kavanaugh to go on the supreme court. the whole point of this game is really the about supreme court and abortion. as far as the left is concerned, the end justifies the means no matter how dirty those means are and no matter how destructive it is just to the "new york times" but to the whole cause of journalism. it is a disgusting disgraceful betrayal of journalism by "the new york times." i don't think they have apologized enough. steve: right. ainsley: some of these journalists don't realize they're individuals, they're people too. he has a very important role and is sacrificing so much to serve our country and they're trying to ruin his reputation without any merit. without any, this lady says she doesn't even remember it? >> that's right. the alleged victim of this alleged sexual assault which is really just a smear and a rumor,

she didn't talk to these reporters and she doesn't even remember it according to her friend. steve: miranda, you said this comes down to abortion. what do you mean? >> because donald trump is quite entitled to appoint conservative justice to the supreme court. that is his mandate. he has done so twice. he appointed 150 conservative judges overall this is driving the left mad. because they see see row roe ves wade vulnerable and that it will be under attack on the supreme court. they're sending a warning to conservatives on the supreme court, we will come after you, destroy your reputation if you dare to do anything we don't like. they're sending a message to any future candidates of the supreme court. if you want to get into this boxing ring we are -- brian: if you want to get in. the other thing to keep in mind too, if the president gets four more years, he will have another

shot at one or two seats. that will change things for 50 years. >> absolutely. this is generational change what's happening. for the people who have voted for donald trump, exactly what he was put in there to do. you know, it is not up to journalists at "the new york times" and people who haven't been democratically elected to decide who goes on to the supreme court. that is the role of the president. steve: miranda devine from the "new york post." thanks for coming downstairs to talk to juice thank you, miranda. we know him and love him from the tv show "bar rescue." >> he likes to buy everybody drinks because it pumps his ego. look how well-dressed he is because it pumps his -- >> ego. ainsley: it is all about the ego. jon taffer has something to say about the push to raise the minimum wage and what it is doing to the restaurant industry. that is coming up next. brian: why we like him. ♪

15-dollar an hour minimum wage. >> raise the minimum wage to at least $15 an hour. >> you don't have to work two or three jobs to make ends meet. one job is enough, it pays at a minimum $15 an hour. ainsley: how will that impact the restaurant industry? let's ask the host of "bar rescue," jon taffer. >> hey, ainsley. brian: what you hear raising the minimum wage, you know this business as well as anyone. what are you thinking? >> it is horrifying. based upon different states the tax credit you get for tips, it is 50% or greater labor cost increase. no industry can sustain a 50% labor cost increase. it is a crisis mode. either you have to raise prices significantly, or you cut labor. now i'm cutting hours to make up the difference. hence we have tablets to order. i eliminate employees. what we're going to do, we're going to eliminate employees. we'll incentivize more robotics. brian: what happened in seattle? >> seattle almost 1000

restaurants closed as a result of this. steve: cautionary tale what would happen elsewhere if it went through? >> it is. it was a shock to the industry economically. steve: you understand why they want more money. everybody want to get paid more money. >> of course that is income, steve. that is based upon tax, inflation. there are some things that impact how much money we take home. raising the minimum wage, raising taxes after it seems to counteract the impact of the raise. when they talk about raising wages and raising taxes, doesn't make sense to me. ainsley: we have a map of some of the states that have increased to $15 an hour. also millenials work life balance. 57% of millenials say that work life balance and well-being in a job are very important to them. brian: right. these are some of the 15-dollar minimum wage and that is what happens, what happens you live on the margins with restaurants. they have small margins. little things matter.

you do that with labor, they go out of business. it is not worth the it. ainsley: you made $3 when i was a waitress you declared tips. in some states you make $15 an hour, you also make tips. >> that is correct. in those cases, ainsley payroll gone up 70%, 80%. steve: in those restaurants and bars they would need a "bar rescue." you have a new season of it. how is this different? >> this is my 185th episode, brian. nine years. you know, we've gotten much, much deeper way we go at it. so much more of a personal story than a bar story. brian: right. >> it is so shakespearian trouble, resists change, transforms, redeems themselves. it's a wonderful human story on almost every "bar rescue." that is why it is still on tv. brian: you update us on other ones that you turned around to see how they're doing. you're not done with "bar rescue," all your other

franchises. you have rolled something out here. what have you done. >> we love mixology, today. because of my shows, other culinary shows the public elevated their perception of mixology. i created taffer's mixologist. brian: this is skinny rita. >> this is 80 calories with the alcohol. it is really good. a lot of people like the skinny. ainsley: 80 calories that is better than a light beer. >> better than a light beer. brian: cosmopolitan mix. >> cosmopolitan mix, pena colada. steve: some of the boxes are and they are delicious. people interested in picking one of those up where do you get them. >> walmart across the country. taffer's hard seltzer. brian: this is the hottest thing in the country. >> this is hot in the country. jalapeno. ainsley: do those have alcohol in them? >> these are 5% alcohol. we can't dry it now. it is light. steve: we can do it during the

>> so terrible. it is really wrong what they're doing, just trying to destroy him. >> she doesn't recall it yet democrats are pushing it, to me it is bs. >> i just don't see it. i'm not one way or the other. i want the proof. reporter: what is the number one issue facing you and your family? >> the number one issue facing our family is the economy. >> native-americans don't have full knowledge of what the republicans can do for them. give republican as chance to see what they can do for us, instead of always depending on the democrats. reporter: critics in the mainstream media say it will be tough for the president to turn new mexico in 2020, why? >> have you seen the crowd here tonight? i think we can. >> latinos we love this country. we are conservatives by heart. we are christians, we are catholics. we are by no means liberals. he will flip the state. reporter: when you look at the numbers, guys, it does not seem like president trump should win

in new mexico but when you talk to people i spoke with, one guy who said i didn't know new mexico had this many republicans. it is going to be interesting to see what happens in november of 2020. here in new mexico. guys, back to you. steve: which i believe is the land of enchantment it used to say on the license plate. todd, we cut your mike. thank you very much. ainsley: summer might be ending. it is the perfect time to fix up your house. skip bedell is teaching us some easy upgrades coming up next. steve: they involve something at that looks like that. let's check in with bill hemmer for preview of coming attractions. >> good morning to three of you. hogan gidley from the white house. fallout real from the "new york times." carrie severino helped write the book on brett kavanaugh. she is here. democrats pushing impeachment have corey lewandoski in their sites before the public hearing committee. guys, ten minutes, top of the
