elk. frowith that, enjoy the elk froa distance and enjoy the rest of your saturday. we'll be back tomorrow. and the news continues from new york. take care. arthel: a political firestorm sweeping across the nation's capital. house democrats subpoenaing america's top diplomat. president trump firing back on twitter, and adding to the drama, an abrupt res is -- resignation. l hello. i'm arthel neville. eric: i'm eric shawn. the u.s. envoy for ukraine has resigned after his name was mentioned in the intelligence community whistleblower complaint. house democrats are intensifying their i' impeachment inquiry afr secretary of state bomb way yowo documented the trump administration's dealing with ukraine. this as the president continues
11:01 am
to weigh in on this, tweeting, quote, could you imagine if the do nothing democrat savages had a republican party who would have done to obama what the do nothings are doing to me. oh, well. maybe next time. the democrats have a lot to say about that. we have live coverage with the latest reaction, spanning the nation's capital. lucas tomlinson this washington bureau. mark meredith is at the white house with the latest from there. >> reporter: president trump is out on the golf course this saturday, he is golfing with lindsey graham along with two others. the president has been tweeting and repeating some of the comments we heard during the mueller probe. the president tweeting out this morning, quote, presidential harassment. the be president is getting some backup from key lawmakers on capitol hill, claiming house democrats are r determined to impeach, not legislate and investigate.
11:02 am
>> they're out of control. the socialist democrats in washington are now the party of impeachment. and literally, just a few days ago, they were as you said talking about impeaching justice kavanaugh and they had a whistleblower complaint. they now are shifting back over to impeaching the president which they said they wanted to do. >> reporter: house democrats have insisted they have every right and really the responsibility to hold the president accountable, especially after a whistleblower raised concerns the president was trying to get ukraine to dig up dirt on his potential 2020 rival, former vice president joe biden. >> i think we have to stay focused as far as the public is concerned on the fact that the president of the united states used taxpayer dollars to shake down the leader of another country for his own political gain. >> reporter: lawmakers say they also want to know if the white house tried to cover up the conversation the president had with the president of ukraine by placing records of the call into a classified system, fox news had a chance to speak to a
11:03 am
former national security official to get an idea of what kind of goes into the process and the official says at least the last couple years since early in the trump administration the white house has tried to limit the details of calls from leaking out to the media. here's what he had to say. >> when i handled transcripts of presidential phone calls last year, we put the transcripts into a very secure, top secret code word system. i don't see any difference from what this alleged whistleblower is claiming. i don't think there was any change. >> reporter: now, the white house is denying any sort of a coverup here. president trump again active on twitter. we don't expect to see the president over the weekend on camera but crazier things have happened. we'll be watching to see what happens next. eric: mark, thanks. arthel: three house committees issued subpoenas for secretary of state mike pompeo for documents as part of the impeachment inquiry. the material had been demanded earlier and the panels are given secretary pompeo until next friday to comply with the
11:04 am
request. lucas tomlinson is live from washington with the latest. lucas. >> reporter: arthel, in addition to the subpoena, the house committees have scheduled five depositions beginning next week with state department officials who have knowledge of the president's call with ukraine. as house democrats build their case for impeachment. the letter says in part, it has become clear that multiple state department officials have direct knowledge of the subject matters of the house's impeachment inquiry. the subpoena was signed by the chairman of three powerful house committees. many republicans say they don't see the president's july 25t 25h call to his ukrainian counter part as an impeachable offense or a quid pro quo. democrats say the opposite. >> for me, it's the appearance. whether it's guilty of something, what we have in front of us is a transcript of something that i think is very damning. and that's -- for me, that's what we need to focus on. these other things will be part
11:05 am
of the discussion i'm sure. >> reporter: many republicans are defending the president. >> they're claiming a coverup. this is the world's worst coverup ever. for heaven's sake they released the transcript. they did so very quickly. they released the whistleblower complaint. they did so very quick. >> reporter: members of the house intel committee said they wanted to work through the scheduled recess. if impeachment vote were to make it to the senate floor, jeff flake said at least 35 republican senators would vote to remove the president if they used a secret ballot. arthel: thank you very much. eric: the justice department, the handling of the whistleblower complaint by the agency is also putting the spotlight on attorney general william barr. he's mentioned in the complaint. and in the transcript of the call on july 25th, telling him to talk to the attorney general about investigating joe biden. house speaker nancy pelosi not
11:06 am
mincing words about all this yesterday. >> he's going rogue. i think where they're going is the coverup of the coverup. that's very sad for them and to have the justice department go so rogue. they have been for a while. now it makes matters worse, that the attorney general was mentioned, that the president was mentioned and yet the justice department directed the director of national intelligence to take this to the white house. >> which he said yesterday was unprecedented. >> reporter: unpress. eric: jerry nadler weighed in earlier this week. he quoted, tweet, the president dragged the attorney general into this mess at a minimum, ag barr must recuse himself until we get to the bottom of this matter. should he? jamal jaffer joins us, former chief counsel and senior advicer for the senate foreign poll you
11:07 am
sigh commit -- policy committee. lots of criticism now aimed at the attorney general. why did the doj apparently deep six the complaint, why did they not pass it to congress, as required by law, why did the doj decide not to investigate poll campaign finance violations in the call. do you think the attorney general has done anything wrong. >> >> it's hard to know here. i don't think there's any offed to suggest the ag did anything wrong here. the question, whether he has to recuse, that's the question of how involved he was in the underlying matter, whether he was materially participating in it. all we know is the president's had a phone call to date we haven't heard anything that barr did anything, that he called or did any actions at all. it's not clear what the ag would have done in terms of asking the ukrainian president to investigate joe biden or his son. so obviously an odd thing raised by the president, with the president of the ukraine, but
11:08 am
not clear what the ag's role if any was in this matter and the underlying matter at all. eric: the democrats say that the picture's already in, it's clear that he's doing the president's bidding, they accuse him of acting like the president's personal lawyer by the actions the justice department apparently took by not releasing this material, by not sending it to congress and you heard nancy pelosi calling it the coverup of the coverup. of tto you, does that hold any water? >> there's a very fair debate going on about whether or how the whistleblower complaint should have been delivered to congress. the question is whether this was a matter arising under the intelligence role of the dni. there was apparently a debate within the justice department, whether that was the case, they decided no which is why they advised the dni not to release it. it involved the use of the intelligence system at the white house where they stored the material and whether the underlying discussions came under the purview. these are lee l gal debates and
11:09 am
-- legal debates and there'sable discussions about it, not necessarily a coverup where a judgment is made. once the ag made the decision, it was the folks in the office of lee l ga legal counsel, so ie idea that the ag runs the justice department but it may go too far to say there was a coverup and to say there was a coverup of a coverup. we don't have evidence of that. there's an investigation to be done. it's concerning that we rush to judgment ahead of time. if there was a coverup, it should be gone after. eric: how about the non-referral of a possible campaign violation? clearly in the president's words he's asking zalinski to investigate joe biden. his spouter supporters would sas because he was concerned about corruption. critics would say, no, he wanted it to affect the political campaign. >> obviously, a very concerning situation about what the president was asking the president of ukraine to do, obviously very troubling.
11:10 am
at the same time, what happened here is the justice department got the information from the national security council from the cia who got it first and they referred it to the criminal division which is within the justice department, responsible for prosecuting crimes. they looked it and assessed there was no crime here. bob mueller charged the russian folks with violations, conspiracies that involve underlying campaign finance violations. there may be a legal theory under which you could prosecute. the question is what is the justice department going to do and their assessment was there was no violation. they're entitled to make that judgment. they could refer is to the u.s. for dc and we could see what happens there. eric: i don't know if your wife wants groceries or if it's a viewer, but if you want to put your iphone on silence for a second because they're going to get you again. carrie kupak said this. the president has not asked the attorney general to contact ukraine on this or any other
11:11 am
matter. she said the president has not spoken with the attorney general about having ukraine investigate anything relating to former vice president biden or his son. so that's a pretty clear statement there. you have this in usa today. quote, make no mistake, these facts now implicate the attorney general, the nation's chief law enforcement officer directly in the commission of acts that many of our country's leading legal experts consider federal crimes. whether as election law violations, bribery or other offenses concerning public corruption. the revelation of the possible involvement should alarm all of us concerned with the rule of law in this country. at a minimum, it's no longer sustainable for the attorney general to oversee the handling of the ukraine scandal. how do the facts implicate the attorney general if the doj says he wasn't involved. >> i think the real challenge as you point out, eric, correctly, is this question of what did the ag do and when, what was the involvement with
11:12 am
the underlying matter, but also his analysis of whether there was a crime here. if in fact the congress goes forward with the impeachment effort, the ag will be likely called to testify because he appears to be a material part of this question. that alone may be a basis for recusal. the last time a an attorney general recused from a matter involved in the president, the president got very upset. we saw the shaming of jeff sessions all over twitter. that i may take effect if the attorney general decides to recuse. eric: the democrats and those in the hill will probably be hearing from him, rather shortly. always good to see you, thank you. >> appreciate it. eric: we have reaction from a member of congress coming up. we'll interview him about the subpoena of mike pompeo and this
11:13 am
complaint. he joins us in about 30 minutes. we'll hear more from the white house and capitol hill tomorrow morning because rudy guliani is going to be on with maria bartiromo, sunday morning futures, tomorrow morning and house judiciary committee ranking member doug collins will also weigh in with maria tomorrow, that's at 10:00 a.m. eastern right here on the fox news channel. so we are all over this story. arthel: iran slamming the u.s. for what it's calling a, quote, inhumane decision to bar its foreign minister from visiting a diplomat here in new york city in a hospital here. the u.s. saying it will not allow the hospital visit unless iran releases an american prisoner in exchange. trey yanks is live in our mideast bureau with the latest. >> reporter: good afternoon. tensions continue between the united states and iran as iran's foreign minister was denied access to visit one of his country's officials currently
11:14 am
trted in a u.s. hospital. during the united nations general assembly just last week, he was limited to traveling in a six block radius from where the gathering was taking place. the restrictions imposed by the u.s. state department are one of a number of sanctions the trump administration is using to pressure iran. iran called the decision, quote, inhumane, while the administration said the visit could take place, only if an american citizen was freed from iran. speaking to local media this year, a an adviser to iran's supreme leader said his country would catch president trump and put him on trial for his treatment of iran. the comments come as iran did he release a british flagged oil tanker yesterday after it was held in the persian gulf for more than two months. tensions near the strait or hour hormuz led to multiple iranian attacks on tanks and infrastructure over the summer. and according to western governments it was iran who launched cruise missiles and drones to attack asaudi oil
11:15 am
field two weeks ago. before heading back to tehran, iran's president said this. >> i told leaders when you accuse a country of something, do you know what that means? it means chaos and triggering crisis. and fire in the region. they had no answer. >> reporter: he also said this past week that the united states offered to lift all sanctions on iran in exchange for talks. this is something the trump administration is denying today. arthel. arthel: thank you very much. eric. eric: we have a lot more ahead this afternoon, including dramatic video of an elk charging into a crowd. do not get close to any elk. also this cdc out with new numbers, the vaping related illnesses are only increasing and one state is looking to take some major action in the wake of this growing scare as we continue with the news this afternoon here on america's news headquarters. ♪ things you can do with schwab:

eric: colorado is celebrating elk fest this weekend but there was a chaotic scene on thursday. visitors are now being warned don't mess with mother nature. a bull elk was seen charging at a crowd of people at a rocky mountain national park. one woman was hit and then dragged by the elk's antlers while a man was hurt trying to run away. neither thankfully was seriously injured. a park employee drove his truck in front of the crowd to try and protect him, when the elk started spearing right at the pickup. officials say people in the video you're seeing were much too close to the animal, that anyone that sees an elk, make sure you have plenty of distance from the elk. >> you stick your thumb out. can your thumb cover the entire
11:21 am
body of that animal? if it can, then you're generally in a safe distance. eric: park officials say this is the start of elk breeding season. you know what that means? the bulls get aggressive and they can attack without warning. arthel: washington is now the latest state to block the sale of flavored vaping products. the governor imposed the emergency ban following 13 deaths across the country. the c ca cdc investigating moren 800 other cases, also linked to vaping and e-cigarettes. jacqui heinrich is in the new york city newsroom with the latest. >> reporter: that proposed ban has not yet gone into effect but the governor is pushing for it as the cdc is telling people to stop using e-cigarettes and vaping products, particularly those with thc. so far, they've not been able to identify one vaping device, liquid or ingredient causing the illness but the name dank vapes
11:22 am
have come up most frequently, especially in illinois and wisconsin. many used cartridges sold in dank vape packaging. >>.the cdc is linking thc to the outbreak after studying 500 of the patients who became ill. more than three quarters of them used vaping products with thc and nearly 40% of them were exclusively vaping thc products. the cdc has confirmed more than 800 cases of lung injury ni illnesses in the united states and virgin islands. 13 have died in 10 states. most victims are younger too, with two-thirds between the ages of 18 and 34. the outbreak prompted bans in some states including massachusetts, rhode island and new york where the supreme court denied a request by the vaping industry to overturn it.
11:23 am
massachusetts ban stopped the sale for four months. washington governor jay insly is calling for a ban. >> no federal or state or local government has tested these products to give you any assurance that they're safe. and i'll just tell you f i had a loved one, i would tell you right now, you are just playing dice with your lungs if you're using these products. >> reporter: the cdc says they're not certain if thc is the problem or if people are getting sick from another substance, like a thickening agent in the vape juice. doctors say the illness resembled an inhalation injury with patients reporting shortness of breath, fatigue and chest pain. arthel: just how might the impeachment controversy shape the next phase of the 2020 democratic race? and will the issue drag on through election day? with those big questions looming, we get reaction from lawmakers on both sides of the

when insurance is simple, it's surprisingly painless. ericthe whistleblower complaintd impeachment inquiry consuming washington and the nation. but it's also having an impact on the campaign trail this weekend. joe biden finding him at the center of it all, with the president asking for an investigation of mr. biden. allison barber is live in t detroit. there's a union forum going on with the uaw, teamsters and all the other union work in detroit. hi, allison. >> reporter: a lot of stuff going on. hi, eric. we have two presidential candidates who are set to arrive in the detroit area tomorrow, senators elizabeth warren and amy klobuchar are coming to speak or they are set to speak at a forum hosted by the largest private sector union, both candidates called for impeachment proceedings to begin months ago. senator warren is reminding
11:29 am
voters of that, as some of her 2020 competitors come out in support of it now. >> i called for an impeachment because i believe it was clear that the president had broken the law and that congress needed to hold him accountable. the way to hold him accountable is to impeach him. i hope we go forward with care and deliberation, but that we do it quickly. >> reporter: candidates who were slower to support impeachment seem to be changing their minds. they're also making it clear they don't want it to overshadow their campaigns. >> i think that every moment we are talking about donald trump is a victory for donald trump and that includes when we talk about impeachment. they said the impeachment media spotlight ended up drawing attention away from that vision, i think it's not good for the country. >> reporter: another 2020 hopeful who has supported impeachment in the past, bay toe
11:30 am
o'rourke, -- beto o'rourke called on president trump to resign at an event in texas earlier today. eric: meanwhile, the united auto workers are on strike against gm, they're in the second week. you hohow are they reaching outo those on the picket line? >> reporter: we're coming up on week two since about 50 now auto workers -- 50,000 auto workers walked out of their jobs with general motors. the union is trying to reach a contract agreement with gm. you have seen candidates come by and visit the picket lines, three of them came to picket lines in michigan, all of them praising the workers and criticizing general motors as well as president trump. senator cory booker met with workers on strike in baltimore a little earlier today. every candidate is hoping to lock down the union vote and visiting the picket lines is one way that we're seeing them try and do that. in 2016, union workers like
11:31 am
those who are on strike, they helped president trump narrowly win the state of michigan and get to the white house. democrats are trying to convince the workers who voted for president trump last time, some who are striking now, that he hasn't fulfilled his promises to union workers and that some of his policies, like histories, have actually hurt them. eric: we'll be on top of that through the weekend. thank you. arthel. arthel: house democrats gearing up for a speedy impeachment probe of president trump, three house committees putting the plan into action by issuing subpoenas for secretary of state mike pompeo. they also scheduled depositions starting next week with five state department officials including kurt volker who sources tell fox news resigned friday as the special envoy for ukraine. congressman lee zelden serves on the foreign affairs committee and is the ranking member of the subcommittee on oversight. congressman, thanks for joining us. >> good to be with you. arthel: listen, of course you
11:32 am
know it happened by way of formal letter, you've got committee chairman adam schiff, elijah cummings and elliott ingle. they asked secretary of state pompeo for six categories of documents, quote, related to reported efforts by president trump and his associates to improperly pressure the ukrainian government to assist the president's bid for re-election, adding your failure or res fuseal to comply with the p subpoena shall constitute evidence of obstruction of the house's impeachment inquiry. so congressman, i want to ask you, secretary of state has until next friday, october 4th to comply. can he avoid submitting the requested documents by claiming executive privilege or jeopardy to national security? after all, house intelligence is one of the leading committees on this phase of the inquir inquir. >> i think it depends on the individual facts or piece of evidence that is being requested. in this particular situation, we
11:33 am
are rushing so quickly towards as early as a november impeachment vote in the house of representatives that you're going to have a lot of questions asked where quite frankly they're just dead ends. arthel: they're trying to get the information from the secretary of state and they're specific about what they're requesting. that's what i'm asking. can the secretary of state avoid this in any way by claiming executive privilege or saying that this information, should i provide it to you, although house intelligence is one of the leading committees, should i provide it to you, it will jeopardize national security. will that fly? >> yeah, i'm sure it's going to be part of the process. if you request something that is classified, there is a process to provide that information. if they request something that is subject to executive privilege, that is a factor. so for the administration to want to be responsive, knowing that so much of what's being asked are dead ends, they're
11:34 am
going to have to work through that process. will it fly? sure. i mean, we understand that executive privilege is part of the process as well as the classification. for the house democrats, nothing will fly short of providing them with facts and evidence and -- they're not going to want to wait a minute. take earlier this week. remember, they announced they're lunchinlunchinglunching an impey before they even read the whistleblower. arthel: the chairman trio informed secretary pompeo they scheduled depositions with five state department officials related to the inquiry. does this put pressure on secretary pompeo to be as forth right as possible because others will also provide information to the committees. >> i have zero doubt that secretary pompeo is going to want to cooperate. i'm confident from everything i know that he has absolutely nothing to hide. so transparency is the right
11:35 am
strategy for the administration and i'm not aware of any information to contradict that. arthel: as you know, or we're here to report that over the next two weeks the committees will depose five other state department officials including deputy chief of mission at the u.s. embassy in ukraine, john volker, who resigned abruptly yesterday and is now a private citizen with more freedom -- excuse me, it's kurt volker, he resigned yesterday, friday and he now has more freedom to answer all questions asked. what is the potential impact in that? >> i would encourage anyone who is coming forth before the committee, whether you are a member of the government or private citizen, to just provide honest answers. as you referenced on the ranking member of the oversight investigation sub subcommittee i believe just from everything i've read so far and aware of some of the questions that are going to be asked, that the best
11:36 am
thing for mr. volker and others to do is come before the committee and be completely honest. if there something that has a classification issue, let's work through it. if there's something with a an executive privilege issue, let's work through it. getting answers is the most important. i would encourage house democratic colleagues to wait and read the information because they have already formed judgments and strategy. they know what they want to get to. they have the facts or the -- they don't have the facts or the information. arthel: do you find anything in the whistleblower's complaint which has been deemed credible by the inspector general and so -- you have the phone call, at least the summary of the phone call that the white house gave the press, is there anything in any of that information that has now been put out in the public that concerns you and that you deem that should be looked further into? >> nothing that is impeach.
11:37 am
heatherable.arthel: i didn't a. does anything concern you as pertains to the national security of the united states of america or perhaps putting the president of the united states of america in jeopardy by way of potential blackmail? >> no. i don't. there are things that are listed inside of the whistleblower complaint that congress, whether you're a republican or democrat, regardless of whether you support the president or don't, can ask follow-up questions and i would imagine as we're starting to see there are questions that are going to be asked. unfortunately, credibility, good faith is part of this process as well. and when the committee has the responsibility for example of asking questions to the director of national intelligence and you'ryour opening statement is misquoting the president of the united states on many different things that are not in the whistleblower complaint, you start questioning credibility and good faith.
11:38 am
i in good faith are answering your questions. arthel: i understand. listen, there's politics involved and of course you're going to have both sides presenting the information as they would like it to be seen. however, facts are facts. let's move over to here, that is mr. rudy giuliani. he's the personal attorney for president trump and he's claiming that all of his dealings with the ukrainian government officials was at the direction or request and approval of the state department. so does this put pressure on secretary pompeo to speak up, refute mr. giuliani's allegations, and clear his name, the secretary's reputation? >> i think what that is -- one of the questions that are being asked that is a fair question to ask, that should get an honest answer in response, i don't doubt that the secretary is going to provide that answer and i'm confident he has nothing to hide. but it's a question to be asked, what exactly was the mayor's
11:39 am
role. that's a question that if my colleagues wants to ask, that's fine. i've had some concerns. again, double standards are a greatly of concern to me. i've seen it play out all throughout this entire year. so if you have no problem with, for example, john kerry talking to zariff and rouhani and undermining the president but you have a problem with rudy giuliani and his role here, that's fine. arthel: those are two different things. you have private citizen giuliani, which we're not showee have security clearance or not. and you have a former secretary of state. nancy pelosi is taxing three committees with overseeing the initial phase of the impeachment inquiry. what do you think these committees most likely will hone in on and what does it tell you about the direction of the inquiry? >> they're just trying to find anything to come up with any type of a charge in order to impeach the president.
11:40 am
they want to skip from -- they want to skip over any criticism oand go straight to impeachment. they don't know what to charge the president with. they don't know what the facts are to support the charge, they don't know the evidence to support the charge. what are the three committees going to hone in on? it's going to be trying to find anything to take down a sitting president. it is going to be -- it's embarrassing because if they receive word that there is some kind of information they don't yet have, they are going to go public with a conclusion based on something they haven't read, a that isn't yet before the committee the. the process, they're way ahead of their skis here. they need to take a step back and deliberately with care and caution, if they have a question, then ask the question, get a response. this isn't with good faith, this isn't with credibility. adam schiff called his opening statement a parody, this entire impeachment inquiry is a parody. arthel: speaker he pelosi did
11:41 am
push back on her caucus for a long time and she apparently waited until she felt like she had something she could hang this inquiry on. listen, it's very early in the process. we'll see what happens and i appreciate your coming on and i'm sure we'll have you on again, congressman. thank you so much. >> take care. eric: there are two new court rulings on the immigration policies including one that will fast track deportations. we'll tell you about those decisions when we come back. orlando isn't just the theme park capital of the world, it also has the highest growth in manufacturing jobs in the us. it's a competition for the talent. employees need more than just a paycheck. you definitely want to take advantage of all the benefits you can get. 2/3 of employees said that the workplace is an important source for personal savings and protection solutions. the workplace should be a source of financial security. keeping your people happy is what keeps your people. that's financial wellness. put your employees on a path
11:42 am
11:45 am

janet, what is behind this new trend? >> well, it's interesting. for years cities have been asking the question of will the millennials stay. a big reason we saw urban revitallrevitalization, is comps moved jobs there and companies built condominiums. what wasn't clear is when the cohort of young adults got older, started looking at marriage, having kids, wanting more space, would they stick it out. and what i think the new figures show us is that we have a continued wave of young adults, and these would be millennials and the youngest members of gen-x out of the cities. the reasons are people are getting froes traited with the -- frustrated with the cost of housing and schools are a challenge. eric: buckeye, arizona, frisco, texas, apex, north carolina, so when they used to say go west, young man, now it's man and
