rather prefer colonel sanders who kind of look like santa claus' uncle. paul: another reason to go to chick-fil-a if you ask me. i'm paul gigot, hope to see you right here next week. ♪ ♪ eric: political fire storm engulfing our nation's capitol, now subpoenaing america's top diplomat, president trump is firing back on twitter and battle now playing out on both ends on pennsylvania avenue toward a possible impeachment inquiry, hello, welcome to america's news headquarters, i'm eric sean. arthel: and i'm arthel neville, requesting secretary of state mike pompeo turn over documents related to the way president trump dealt with ukraine and want it in hand in less than a week, fox team coverage mark meredith at the white house,
1:01 pm
ellison barber responses from 2020 democrats running for president, forelockas thompson in washington. >> friday is the deadline to turn over documents, house democrats have scheduled 5 depositions beginning next week beginning with state officials who are acknowledging and democrats build case for impeachment, the later says in part it's become clear that multiple state officials have direct knowledge of subject matters of house's impeachment inquiry, the letter signed of the chairman of 3 powerful house committees, schiff and elijah cummings, many pushing hard for impeachment. >> do i believe that this was an inflection point, tipping point, we have 220 plus democrats positiver in full impeachment inquiry, that's bigger than 6 investigative committees, bigger than our caucus, this is about the american people.
1:02 pm
>> not all democrats agree. >> if there's something really there, obviously we need to investigate and we have been investigating but to go into a full-blown impeachment is going to accomplish unfortunately certain goals that i don't think are desirable. >> house democrats are also taking aim at rudy giuliani for his dealings with ukrainian government, the former new york mayor also cited and subpoenaed, quote, mr. giuliani's statements raise more troubling questions, press ukraine to intervene -- interfere in 2020 election, many republicans say they don't see the president's july 25th call with ukrainian counterpart as quid pro quo or anything leading the president to get thrown out of office. >> i see a conversation that covers a wide variety of issues and no, i don't see anything impeachable in here and no, i don't see a quid pro quo.
1:03 pm
>> one of the president's -- trump's critics jeff flake says at least 35gop senators would vote for impeachment if they could get the vote in secret, arthel. arthel: lucas thompson, thank you, thank you very much, lucas. eric. eric: arthel, president trump is firing back on twitter this morning, he's doing so because democratic on the hills are vowing to move quickly with impeachment inquiry, mark meredith on the lawn with the reaction from the man inside, hey, mark. >> good afternoon, president trump fired off a slew of tweets first thing this morning, appeared to be fired up over the impeachment inquiry that lucas was just talking about, this is what the president had to say with the first tweet, one of the first tweets earlier this morning, quote, can you imagine if the do-nothing democrats savages, people like nadler, schiff, aoc plus 3, oh, well, maybe next time. the president went onto call the
1:04 pm
ongoing impeachment inquiry presidential harassment. democrats are doing their best to hold the president accountable after whistle blowers alerted officials to investigate 2020 rival joe biden, so far two republican governors say they support congress investigating the president's interactions with ukraine, among those voicing positiver for the investigation vermont government phil scott. >> i positiver -- support getting the facts and we need to do the fact-finding and figure out what is happening. >> that's what the governor had to say, at least the president has one republican senator that's ready and that's republican senator lindsey graham, he's out golfing with the president earlier today, the white house announced. the senator released statement
1:05 pm
via twitter, this is what he had to say, quote n america you can't even get a parking ticket based on hearsay testimony but you can impeach a president, i certainly hope not. graham support comes as president trump envoy to ukraine is resigning, kirk is resigning, in contact with both rudy giuliani, president trump's lawyer as well as ukrainian government and was reportedly trying to help ukrainian officials trying to understand the needs of both the white house as well as u.s. officials and president trump through rudy giuliani. eric. eric: arthel. arthel: eric we will bring emily larson, political reporter for the washington examiner, how fast can this move along? >> well, i think democrats are certainly hoping to figure out what they are going to do with this impeachment action by the end of the year, while things are still fresh in the minds of voters and there's momentum with this most recent impeachment inquiry based off of ukraine.
1:06 pm
i mean, we had years -- years long drip, drip about the russia investigation which many democrats not a majority of the caucus, but many democrats thought that there was enough there to be grounds for impeachment for the president and so they're trying to -- because they have sort of lost the attention of voter and momentum there, that's going to be moving a lot fast every while they can still keep the public's attention. arthel: reaction moving as quickly, in fact, today republican senator tim scott of south carolina was on with cavuto live saying that dems launch impeachment inquiry so president trump does not get elected. >> their strategy has been from the 2016 election until now find a way to either get them impeached, get them out, make them quit or beat him by not using facts, using fiction if necessary and frankly from my perspective perhaps the biggest loser in this entire process will be biden for president.
1:07 pm
>> so emily do all lawmakers agree with senator scott? >> well, i think that there's some debate there, you mentioned earlier in the show that there was jeff flake saying that if there could be secret vote in the senate, he thinks that there would be a lot of republicans that would vote to convict the president of impeachment grounds but, you know, impeachment really is at its core, political process, it's not necessarily only based on -- on legal matters because of the nature of the presidency and that office, and so what we are going to see here is that democrats can't get some support from republicans, it is going to be portrayed throughout 2020 as a partisan political operation and whether there's movement there i think we will have a lot of implications for the race. arthel: let's talk about more reaction, emily, democratic congressman jeff was on neil today on the -- he spoke about the long-term implications of
1:08 pm
impeachment. >> number 1, we will split the country further apart. there's no doubt the country is split now since the civil war i almost don't believe we have been so split apart. this is going to make it worse, secondly, we have a host of issues to deal with, neil that are so serious, whether it is the debt and the deficit, whether it is social security and medicare, whether it is, you know, having selection -- elections that are secured. >> is that the sentiment shared by others in capitol hill? >> certainly a sentiment among republicans, we are getting into the season of budget talks and we are getting into the season of discussion, movement on gun control and now attention on impeachment, that will be the center of attention for -- for the foreseeable future on capitol hill, when that's happening, not a lot else is happening, it has interesting implications for the democrats also seeking the presidency that
1:09 pm
are in mid to lower tier with all of this attention centered around joe biden and the front runners and impeachment now, they'll be a lot less base for them to get message out and get momentum for campaigns. >> democrats say they can walk and chew at the same time, on the other side of the coin, can president trump continue to get things done through this process or will he be all consumed by this process like they're saying that the democrats will be? >> well, i think that's yet to be determined, serge there -- certainly parts of the administration that are operating differently on impeachment, as far as what's going on in the white house, all eyes are on what is going on in capitol hill, things might die down a little bit, seems like we've we've had a couple of months of news just in the last week, as things slide down a little bit, democrats take their time to do investigations about the ukraine, what was going on with president trump and ukraine, if they just focus on this investigation part for a little bit maybe there could be
1:10 pm
some movement in other areas as well. arthel: yeah, will this somehow inadvertently unclog congress with both chambers determined to get things done through this process? >> well, i mean, both chambers are, you know, at the end of the day people in both parties have to go home to their voters and say what are they doing for their constituents and what are they doing in congress and if it's public backing isn't behind impeachment, actions on impeachment or impeachment inquiries or investigations over the past week, the polls are still, you know, we are still going to have to come and see, if the public gets away from that, that will put pressure on members on congress to focus on other priorities. arthel: well, impeachment is serious, emily larsen, we will leave it there, thank you so
1:11 pm
much. >> thank you. eric: president trump has made immigration a center piece of this tenure but his administration has suffered two major setbacks in federal court this week over its immigration policies, garrett tenneye plains from washington. >> it was a rough day for the administration's immigration policies, the big one was the white house's attempt to get rid of the so-called flores agreement which argues is responsible for the catch and release loopholes in our immigration system, last month the administration announced plans to replace flores with new policies that would allow children and families to be held indefinitely until their immigration hearings rather than being released in the u.s. to return to hearing for a later date, here is how acting homeland security secretary kevin mac aleenan explained at the time. >> conditions for care of children must be appropriate. >> but on friday u.s. district judge said the new plan didn't do enough to ensure children are protected and chastised government in ruling, writing
1:12 pm
that officials cannot simply ignore consent decree merely because they no longer agree with approach as matter of policy n a separate case, federal judge in california curved the ability of ice agents to take people suspected of being in the country illegally in federal custody, immigration groups that i shouldn't allow solely on databases because database complete errors and incomplete information, responding to the judge who overturn the flores agreement case, the white house said for 2 and a half years this administration has work today restore faithful enforcement of congress while activists judges have imposed their own vision of dually enacted laws, this destruct around removal system congress created must end. rounding up the immigration setbacks for the white house, federal judge in dc issued preliminary injunction on new policy that aimed at fast-track deportations, justice department

1:18 pm
know, concerns of the culprit, why are e-smokers or vapors are dying, do you have a solid answer yet? >> we don't have a solid answer right now, research is suggesting that thc oil or vaping products are causing outbreak but at this time we are not sure exactly because some people have not used these products. >> for those who did, again, like you said so many unanswered questions, you've got some states banning the flavored e-cigarette, how can the cdc get to the bottom of it, do research if this product is already on the market? >> right, this is a full-pledged cry and that's why the cdc has issued a very strong statement to people who consider refrain of use of electronic cigarette or vaping product until further notice especially one modified or tampered with. arthel: they are not regulated.
1:19 pm
>> we don't know, every time you take a smoke or inhale you're taking a risk. this is a serious lung illness, we don't know if people are going to get better from this, it is so severe this coughing, shortness of breath, there's been 12 deaths so far, may have been a 13, we are expecting numbers to grow, some people are so sick that are getting breathing tube in and attached to machine because lungs have failed. this is serious. arthel: i have seen reports of young healthy person following a period of vaping and they have the lungs of a 70-year-old which is not necessarily a bad thing but it is if you're 25. >> it is, there's so many unnopes about this, people think it might be the thc but also vitamin e oil that's use today stretch it out.
1:20 pm
>> can you fully recover from vaping damage? >> we don't know, we just don't know. warning was issue, we need to be cautious especially to young people, there's no reason our children should be using this, about 18% of those affected, they should not be using these products. arthel: yeah, i wouldn't let my children do it, but no judgment on the parents because, you know all the ads make it look so cool. i always notice the video that we show, you know, when we are talking about the vapors and all the girls have the cool-looking kid fingernails. >> chemistry experiments in people's lungs. arthel: i did say something, i wouldn't let my child smoke the e-cigarette or vaping, that's
1:21 pm
the thing, no one knew it was so dangerous, they were sold, candy flavored, it won't do any damage but it does, talk about the symptoms, again, i feel like we can never get that information often enough so people can be on the lookout. >> coughing, shortness of breath, flu-like symptoms, diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, those are important things to look at. if you smoke or vape one of these products and you're feeling this, seek medical care arthel: even if you just did it for the first time, i tried e-cigarette and came up with symptoms, i should go -- >> go get medical care right away. >> really? i'm trying to get -- as i said so many unanswered questions, when you and fellow doctors in the health community, when you discuss this, what are some of the things that you -- issues that you raised? >> one of the things is safety signs were ignored.
1:22 pm
no one put two and two together. a lot of people who brought this up, doctors who brought this up were attacked by social media, so that's one of the issues, raising concerns about this and now time for the nation to really hear about this and our president on september 11th stating that we need to put a ban at least on the flavored vaping products at this time. more needs to be looked at and a lot that has happened electronically vaping have taken script out of cigarette book. right, so we need to look at that. we don't know what the long-term effects are especially in our kids, no reason for a child to be smoking, anything,, nicotine is not for their brain.

1:28 pm
him. >> he wants to hijack this election so that we are not going to focus on your lives, so we are not going to focus on issues that relate to health care, education, rewarding work, not just wealth, gun violence, climate change, immigration, all of the things that i think that are the reason why as core above everything else why he no longer deserves to be president of the united states of america. >> in michigan tomorrow senators elizabeth warren and amy klobuchar said to speak at forum hosted by the largest private sector union both warren and klobuchar called for impeachment proceedings to begin months ago, warren reminding voters of that, some 2020 competitors come out and support it now. >> i call for impeachment because i believe it's clear that the president has broken the law and that congress needed to hold him accountable.
1:29 pm
[inaudible] >> so i hope he goes forward with care and deliberation but that we do it -- >> wasn't candidate who supports impeachment proceedings and has said that for a while is beto o'rourke, today he also said that he believes president trump should resign, that's the best thing the president can do for the country right now. arthel. arthel: so ellison, it's week 2 of the gm strike, have any candidates shown up on the picket lines? >> they have here in michigan 3 candidates showed up in the detroit area and joined workers on those picket lines, senator elizabeth warren, amy klobuchar and also bernie sanders, senator sanders thanked workers for in his workers having the courage to stand up to corporate greed, senator cory booker also met with workers on strike, he was in baltimore doing that earlier today, factory union workers,
1:30 pm
they helped narrowly win the state of michigan in 2016. democrats are trying to convince voters who voted for president trump last time that the president has not fulfilled promises he made to union workers, one striking worker we spoke to at this point he doesn't feel like any of the candidates whether it's the incumbent president trump or anyone on the democratic side that they have actually come out and done enough to show their support for the workers on the picket lines and in their fight against gm. arthel. arthel: ellison barber, thanks, ellison. >> the ultimate solution to end the regime crime many iran and terrorism, warmongering and iranian people and their citizens. eric: that's marian, leader of whateverrest opposition group, the national council of resistance of iran, and they are calling for regime change in
1:31 pm
tehran, the group protested against the regime during the united nations assembly this week, iranian president hassán rouhani on the right made clear that takes with the u.s. are now dead unless they end iranian sanctions, you know that will not happen, what's next iran in question and violates nuclear deal, mit security's program, up in boston as always but here in new york for the un week this last week, jim, always good to see you. it seems the u.s. and iran are in standoff some talks -- reports that takes could perhaps start in a few weeks, know anything about that? what would they be dealing with? >> first i have to say, eric, i haven't forgotten at the end of our interview last week how you threw shade at me over the red sox, i still remember that. eric: my apologizes, yes. >> it's okay. [laughter]
1:32 pm
>> so you're right to character it that way because we've had as i described it several near misses, near misses with respect to the use of military force and the near misses with diplomatic progress, we have -- had one of those last week. president rouhanii saw in new york in person he said he was willing to talk to the u.s., willing to talk about the iran deal and willing to talk about issues beyond the iran deal. so both parties have said that, they also said it at the g7, but then you've had other events like the bombing of aramco, oil refinery in saudi arabia or other things they have done to lean towards it and then back away and so the structure of the problem has not changed, the u.s. is trying to strangle iran economically, iran is pushing back, i think we will continue to get more of the same, coming close to diplomacy but also military conflict. eric: how close to military conflict and we've had attacks in saudi arabia that the u.s. and allies and saudi arabia
1:33 pm
blames on iran, they have denied which is laughable, i mean, really. how -- what could that look like, what do you fear? >> well, there's some good news and bad news here, eric. the bad news it's pretty clear to me that neither the u.s. nor iran wants a war and so that -- that sets up a natural barrier of resistance f one parties want it they can usually get it and if both parties want it it's pretty easy, in this case president trump has talked about finding strength and restrain and certainly iranians don't want to fight a war, they would lose the war, there's no doubt about that, that's all good news. i think the bad news is neither side is able really to take their policies and translate it so that we are in some other track, right, so the u.s. has been good at sanctions but they haven't been very good at turning into sanctions into diplomacy and the iranians have been good about fighting back, i think, the aramco was
1:34 pm
sophisticated if you ask me, but both sides have been able to do things but none of them are really helping towards some resolution here and that's why as i said, the structure of the problem continues, more sanctions, more provocations, more sanctions, more provocations and i worry that even though neither side wants a war maybe they will stumble into it because neither want left field. eric: one day when french president emmanuel macron was like shuttling, he visited president trump and accident took place over and sees rouhani, wall street journal dealing with boris johnson, uk prime minister boris johnson which met with iranian leaders told mr. rouhani and mr. trump to be side on the swimming pool
1:35 pm
and jump at the same time. [laughter] eric: i don't know about that vision of the president and mr. rouhani standing by the pool, i know what they mean, they both have to do something together. >> yeah, i i i don't want to let that linger in my brain, can turn a phrase. they both have to do something together and both require a leap and neither wants to do and that way the metaphor captures a bit of it. you know, it could -- you could have had something positive happen at the un, you could have had it and i think this is what it looks like, some number, that's what people can negotiate over is the number, they issue oil waivers, all the rest of the sanctions remain on the books, it's sort of interim agreement like the president has with north korea but it lowers the temperature and buys you some time on the way to something
1:36 pm
better, i think it'll be about oil, sanctions, waivers is the quickest way to get this job done. eric: that's what they want. that's their point of revenue and their economy is being -- >> exactly. eric: because of this. >> yeah. eric: do you they they will eventually give way on ballistic missiles, not the nuclear program but at least ballistic missiles and human rights that be mentioned as part of the negotiations? >> i think they'll be willing to talk to them but missiles is a complex issue, you remember that iran was tacked by iraq with ballistic missiles, the air force is not very good, they have no way to defend themselves from air attacks, so asymmetric balancing and because the track we are on it's moving more extreme. the next announce meant they
1:37 pm
have on nuclear on november 6th, making an announcements every 2 months, the next wound is going to be worse and that's going to raise tensions and other ways that tensions could come up and and so i say it would be better to have some smaller interim deal that turn it is -- turns the volume down and creates stability when things aren't stable in the region. eric:nation al council of iran, monday having news conference in washington that they say they will reveal details about the saudi attack, what happens if and when it's proven or when the evidence comes out that saudi -- that iran is behind the saudi asack, what type of action if any do you see under taken by the u.s. and our allies? >> well, first i would say eric that that group i'm familiar with, it used to be on terrorism watch list and has no support within iran and they've made announcements before, they've made a correct announcements and
1:38 pm
made lots of announcements that didn't come true, i wouldn't put too much stock on that one, but -- handmade me forget where i was in answering your question. >> if there's -- >> i remember now. eric: what happens? >> well, i think each day that passes it's less likely something will happen, see, the game here is that iran is trying to be provocative but the level that would warrant military response, what the military calls kinetic response and they know that and no one was killed in the strike and they did the repairs pretty quickly so it's hard to pick something that is proportionate in a response, that's what they are struggling with. eric: we will see what happens, if and when they are blamed, jim walsh, always good to see you and we will keep on talking, thank you, arthel. arthel: eric the taliban staging deadly attacks at voting centers in afghanistan today with
1:39 pm
militants trying to disrupt elections, kitty logan following this from london, kitty. >> hi, arthel. the polls have closed now, late at night in afghanistan, some of the vote counting has started in places like kabul but turnout was pretty low according to reports, that's because the taliban had threatened people at polling stations, but despite those threats hundreds of thousands of afghans were undeterred, they did head out to polling stations, there were reports of delay, some technical issues, but many believed that the fact that this election did go ahead wasn't remarkable, of course, it's the peace deal with the taliban has been agreed. it could have been called off altogether, the taliban had specifically threatened to target voters in polling places but there was intense security operation led by afghan forces but backed by nato troops, u.s.
1:40 pm
troops helping out with that too, that prevented any single major mass attack but according to local sources there were almost 100 smaller attacks at this polling station, the run-up to the vote too, don't forget that, marred by horrific violence, more than a dozen candidates standing for president and current afghan president, he's running for reelection as well as his main rival dr. abdullah. it could be sometime yet before winner can be declared and in the past always concerns in the background about the credibility of the voting process particularly given the low turnouts and, of course, it will take several weeks to bring all of those ballot boxes down from remote locations in afghanistan and count the votes that could take up until early november until that final count is concerned and if not one single
1:41 pm
candidate reaches 51% of the vote they'll be a runoff, still way to go until we know we know who the afghan president is. arthel: way to go, kitty thank you. eric: police officer shot dead in line of duty, up next how the community is remembering the fallen hero. i know.

2:03 pm
authority a long time ago, also because of the mueller report. although the report did not ultimately get us to impeachment, it did result in the indictment and sentencing of many around donald trump. >> reporter: many republicans say they don't see the president's july 25th call with ukrainian counter part as a quid pro quo or anything leading to the president to get thrown out of office. >> they're out of control. the socialist democrats in washington are the party of impeachment. literally, just a few days ago, they were talking about impeaching justice kavanaugh. >> the strategy has been from the 2016 election until now, find a way to either get him impeached, get him out, make him quit or get him by not using fax, using fiction if necessary, and frankly from my perspective perhaps the biggest loser ins this entire process will be biden for president. >> reporter: jeff flake says at
2:04 pm
least 35 senators would vote for impeachment if they could vote in secret. eric. eric: lucas, thanks so much. arthel: president trump blasting democrats on twitter as the political firestorm continues to play out on capitol hill. mark meredith is live at the white house with that part of the story. mark. >> reporter: arthel, president trump continues to call the investigations into him and a his administration presidential harassment. the president fired off a series of tweets this morning before going to play golf with lindsey graham. this is a tweet that got a lot of attention this morning. the president is saying, quote, can you imagine if these do nothing democrat savages, people like nadler, schiff, aoc, plus three and many more had a republican party who would have done to obama what the do nothings are doing to me. oh, well, maybe next time. the president directed his outrage at democrats on capitol hill and to the person who shared details of his call with ukraine with the government whistleblower, even suggesting that person was a spy.
2:05 pm
>> i want to know who is the person that gave the whistle blow, who is the person who gave the whistle blow, of the information. that's close to a spy. you know what we used to do in the old days with spies, we used to handle them differently than we do now. >> reporter: the acting director of national intelligence told congress he found the person who came forward appeared to be doing nothing wrong. >> i want to stress that i believe that the whistleblower and the inspector general have acted in good faith throughout. i have every reason to believe that they have done everything by the book and followed the law. >> reporter: the whistleblower suggested the white house may be trying to lock up details of the p president's conversations by putting them into a classified system. fox news spoke with a former national security official who said after leaks early on in the administration when it came to foreign calls with leaders from mexico and australia, the
2:06 pm
behight housthe whitehouse decis position. >> when i handled transcripts 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: tonight, the associated press reports that attorney general bill boar is bl barr is said to be frustrated and angry that his name is part of this and he says he doesn't have anything to do with what's alleged by the whistleblower's complaints. eric: let's bring in john busy, wall street journal associated e editor. the democrats and the critics say it's criminal. >> we're going to watch what nancy pelosi hopes to keep a very narrow inquiry so she can
2:07 pm
keep it moving quickly. this is not something she really wanted. the membership in her caucus made it pretty clear that eventually they did want it. so pelosi's moving in this direction. she wants to keep it narrow and fast. but it's bound to get broad. there are other trans scrits -- transcripts of other conversations in that locked down environment in the white house that was specially created keep the transcript of the ukraine discussion under wraps and away from the view of the broader administration. other conversations in there, and i think the congress is going to want to know what they are. eric: the white house will say those conversationses were on lockdown bows there walockdown - because there was the leak of the australian situation and other things. who knows what the president said on the phone with these guys, what kind of deals he was cutting and that's what the critics will say. can they subpoena those or is
2:08 pm
that executive privilege? how do you get that stuff out? >> we're going to find out. and executive privilege is going to be invoked at some point along the way. some of this is probably going to spill into the courts, as much as pelosi would like to keep it confined to the next few months, it's bound to spill into the next months beyond that. and at a certain point it's going to inform the entire election cycle right up until november of next year. it's going to be a dominant topic now which is a problem for the democrats, problem also for the republicans. eric: you work for the wall street journal so you know business very well. here's the businessman, president trump. this is how he talks, he's a new yorker. he does business deals, give me this, give me that, give me this, give me that. the democrats and critics are saying it's illegal, it's in his own words, sitting there seeking foreign interference in the american election. he's been accused of committing treason and this sort of thing by some of his critics. by having this outreach, white house supporters would say, no,
2:09 pm
he just is interested in corruption. >> you can't do this, you can't go to a foreign leader and say help me get dirt on my political opponent. can't do it for a bunch of different reasons. you also can't hint that you're going to hold up aid and actually have held up aid back in the white house the day before. eric: supporters say there wasn't a quid pro quo. others say it was the previous aid that was held up. he didn't mention money in the -- he said how good -- >> all the things we've done for you. it's kind of a -- when you read the transcript, i think leave it to the judgment of the american public about common sense, what was really going on here. but the other thing is they that you don't want a president doing this because they can get compromised. let's assume the russians are listening in on all the ukrainian discussions and they've tapped the line like most nations do to each other so the russians come to the president of the united states
2:10 pm
and they say we hear you asking for political favor from the ukrainians that was going to benefit you personally back in the united states and we know that's illegal in the united states. so you can have -- you can be compromised in the course of these discussions. eric: the president would say vladimir, buzz off, no, i'm -- saying what he's saying now, he's going to say i was interested in corruption i, wanted to know what happened to joe biden and his son even though the ukrainian prosecutor said they didn't break ukrainian law. >> he has said that. look, ukraine has a corruption problem and so this is something that the be president has put forward. we're going to hear all of these arguments on both sides. this is not going to be a circumscribed, quickly resolved issue. it is going to take some time to resolve and it will be interesting to see how much damage or benefit this brings to biden. one would think having this constantly in the news about
2:11 pm
people wondering about why his son, was he trading on access to his dad, that can't be helpful to his campaign. eric: let me play you some of rudy giuliani's -- his defense of this phone call. here's the former mayor and personal lawye for president lat trump. >> the president didn't do a darn thing wrong. when you look at the conversation, there's no threat, there's no quid pro quo, there's no mention of money. if you want to interpret something, well, i can't stop you from interpreting something. that's like making it up. it's either there or it isn't there. it isn't there. eric: is he right? >> there doesn't have to be a quid pro quo. this is the president's personal lawyer putting his spin on what's going on. mr. giuliani is in the thick of this as well. he was behaving in a ma manner t seems to be a an official envoy to the united states but he's
2:12 pm
not of. he's going to drag in other people, secretary of state pompeo, the state department was involved in this as well. and officials in the white house surrounding the be president who decided to put that transcript in lockdown. all of these folks are going to be subject to discussions in congress and desires for them to testify. eric: and it's only starting. the former mayor says he got a approval from the state department, he's got a stack of texts and. mails showing he t -- and e-mails showing he got the green light and stamp of approval. >> he may well have. eric: he's going to take them on and boy, will that be a show. thank you. arthel: washington now the latest state to block the sale of flavored vaping products. the governor imposing an emergency ban following 13 deaths across the country, this as the cdc is investigating more than 800 other cases, also linked to vaping and e-cigarettes. jacqui heinrich is in our new york city newsroom with the
2:13 pm
latest. >> reporter: that ban in washington state hasn't yet gone into effect but this is happening as the cdc is telling people to stop using e-cigarettes and vaping products, particularly products with thc. since march, the cdc confirmed more than 800 cases of lung injury illnesses in 46 states and the virgin islands. the states are outlined here in yellow on your map. and of the 800 people who got sick, 13 died in 10 states which are marked red. the numbers climbed in june and shot up in late july. the cdc is linking thc to the outbreak after studying 500 patients who became ill. more than three quarters of them used vaping products containing thc and nearly 40% were exclusively vaping thc products. the outbreak prompted bans in some states including massachusettes, rhode island and new york where the supreme court just denied a request by the vaping industry to overturn the ban. washington governor jay insley
2:14 pm
is calling for a ban in that state. >> i think consumers in this country have been lulled into the sense that if you buy something, that there's some regulatory body that will protect you from dangerous chemicals in this product. that doesn't exist today. either in the united states or the state of washington. >> reporter: the cdc says they're not certain if thc is the problem or people are getting sick from another substance like a thickening agent in the vape juice. arthel. arthel: jackie, thank you very much. i want to ask you before you go, is there any -- it's very important to find out. is there any common link between the cases? >> reporter: the cdc has been very hesitant to hang the blame on any one product. but for the first time they are identifying a brand that has come up a lot. it's called dank vapes. and the illinois health department says it's a generic brand and it doesn't tie back to any one store or distributor. the chief medical officer there saying most people bought prefilled thc cartridges off the streets sold in dank vape
2:15 pm
packaging and they had no understanding where it came from. it came up most in illinois and wisconsin where health officials say the victims mentioned 87 different product names and many vaped more than one product. doctors in illinois say that it resembles an inhalation injury with patients reporting shortness of breath, fatigue and chest pain. arthel. arthel: jackie, thank you very much. meanwhile, a whistleblower alleges the white house took action to, quote, lock down records of president trumps' call with his ukrainian counterpart by moving the transcript to a secret computer system. quote, white house officials told me they were directed by white house lawyers to remove the electronic transcript from the computer system in which such transcripts are typically stored for coordination, finalization and distribution to cabinet level officials and it goes on to say the transcript was loaded into a separate
2:16 pm
electronic system that is otherwise used to store and handle classified information of an especially sensitive nature. one white house official described this act as an abuse of the electronic system because the calls did not contain anything remotely sensitive from a national security perspective. let's bring in our legal panel, a former new york state assistant attorney general and former senior investigative counsel for the house oversight he reform committee and michael j moore, a former u.s. attorney and partner at pope mcglamery law firm. does the white house have the discretion to store the transcripts of this particular phone call onto that code word system? >> they definitely do. and you have to look at it this way. it's undisputed that the ultimate authority for determining whether something is classified in any administration, president obama, president bush, president trump, is the president himself.
2:17 pm
so how that's stored, how that's stored and where it's stored is also up to the president. there had to be two reasons why they did it. either they stored it in a different computer system if it's true because they were worried about leaks or because they wanted to engage in a coverup. if it was a coverup, they wouldn't have released the transcript and i was listening to the segment leading into this, arthel, and one of your other experts who used to work on the national security counsel mentioned that it was not uncommon to store these types of documents on a code word system. so i'm sure this will be investigated and discussed in the coming weeks and months but strictly the question about where you can store classified documents, that's up to any specific administration or president. arthel: michael, before i let you jump in there, let's play sound from susan rice on this topic. >> how often did you move those conversations on that kind of server. >> we didn't move them over
2:18 pm
unless they were legitimately in their content classified. it's rare that a presidential conversation would be classified to that highest level. it's not impossible. it's very rare. arthel: michael, you heard secretary rice saying that it's very rare for that type of conversation to be moved to that system. what was -- again, i know they said each president his or her -- his until now, discretion to do so. what was behind the strategy, do you think, michael, releasing the summary of the call, if not verbatim, word for word, but it's a summary. >> i think the bottom line is trump was probably getting pressure, the white house was getting pressure from senate leaders. we hear that mitch mcconnell was advocating or pushing for the release of the call. i don't disagree with chris that a president can have the ultimate authority about classification of materials. the problem here, when you look at it, the lawyers were making a
2:19 pm
decision about moving this call to the secret server. it's kind of ironic, we've been listening to it for two years, to trump's complaints about secret servers from his prior election opponent. but remember that the reason that these calls need to be maintained in an accessible format so cabinet level officials, national security team members can have access to them so the administration can be on the same page as relates to interactions with foreign leaders and foreign countries. it really makes not a lot of sense, especially when you look at the content of the call, for this to have been put in some type of super secret server. and when i hear and it's pretty clear now that the lawyers from the white house were suggesting that it go there and we know there may be calls there from vladimir putin and maybe from saudi arabia, interesting to me that the collection maybe of world leaders that trump is speaking to whose calls he seems to want to hide from public
2:20 pm
view. again, i don't disagree with chris about classification but i will tell you that there's a jury charge when you have a criminal case and that is that things like flight can be evidence of somebody's guilty conscience. sometimes hiding evidence might be evidence of guilty conscience. i think we may see that down the road. arthel: chris, i need a quick answer. so where will this argument lead and who do you think will bear potential legal and political jeopardy? >> it will definitely lead to the courts. you wanted a short answer. it will go to the courts. as far as who will be in jeopardy, you could say almost anybody. maybe president trump. maybe joe biden. maybe house democrats. who knows. but it's going to be a fun show to watch in the next few months. arthel: you threw in joe biden. i don't have time to follow up on that one. i've got to go. thanks so both of you. stick around. we'll be back with more news after this break. ♪ the amount of student loan debt i have

[ applause and band playing ] only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ eric: the u.s. is helping saudi arabia defend itself against iran. depending on sending a missile battery to the desert kingdom to help it protect itself from more potential iranian missile attacks, this move of course comes as i sat down with one of the top saudi officials whose message to the world is that tehran must be stopped. do you think you will make any evidence or more evidence
2:40 pm
public? >> yes. that's the whole purpose. eric: he's the minister of state for foreign affairs for saudi arabia, former ambassador to the united states, proud graduate of the university of r north texas and georgetown. he is clear-eyed down the iran threat. one week after the government publicly displayed what they said was hard evidence of iran's involvement in the attacks. he told me more proof will soon be made public. >> we know the iranians -- the equipment that was used was iranian made. we know the attack came from the north, not from the south. the crews missiles used didn't have the range to go from yemen. we hold iran responsible because of the origin of the missiles. eric: they say it's part of the long history of terrorist attacks against the kingdom and
2:41 pm
other countries. >> it's a form of aggression against our country, they attacked our embassies, as says assassinatedded diplomats, and the list goes on and on. erichepraises president trump'sl for a global coalition to confront iran, saying it's long overdue. >> we've been calling for a global effort to contain iran's aggressive behavior. iran has to decide if it's a revolution or a nation state. if it's a revolution, it's i rational and -- irrational and you cannot deal with it. you must abide by the rules of international law and sovereignity of nations. it can't provide ballistic missiles to terrorist organizations and can't support, sponsor and train terrorists. that's iran's nefarious behavior. it must come to an end.
2:42 pm
eric: what do you you think it will take finally to try to get that message to stop the bad behavior, their interference in other nation's activities and support of terrorism around the globe. >> an end to appeasement. appeasing iran has only fueled iran's aggressive behavior. when people talk about setting up a parallel system, that's appeasement. when people talk about giving iran credit lines, that's peesment. -- appeasement. when people talk to iran but don't beef that talk with firm action, vis-a-vis iran, that's appeasement. when seek to do business with iran when iran is murdering people and disrupting interorder, that's appeasement. the first step has to be stop the appeasement, make it clear to iran if you want to be a nation in good standing, conduct yourself as a nation that behaves according to international norms and international laws. you cannot have relations with a country that has been engaging
2:43 pm
in a rampage of death and destruction against my country and against countries in the region. eric: is it possible, it would seem impossible to try and change their behavior, philosophy, their mindset, and frankly their hatred. >> the iranian constitution has enshrined in it the principle of exporting the revolution. they don't believe in the sovereignity of nations. they believe every member belongs to iran. that's ridiculous, that's like saying every catholic belongs to italy. what do you think brazil will think or ger germany or france. you don't behave like this. the iranian behavior has to stop. iran unfortunately, there are those who believe it's iran's mission to dominate the region and export its revolution and restore the persian empire and there are those -- so that cannot stand. eric: iran has denied it lawn offed the missiles,-launched the
2:44 pm
missiles. we'll likely hear more about iran's aggression and a call for global action when saudi arabia addresses the united nations general assembly, their turn is on monday day. for more on this, let's turn to general jack keane, chairman of the institute for the study of war and fox news senior strategic analyst. we heard the minister passionately sound the warning, an end to appeasement he says. do you think the europeans, especially, will listen? >> yes, i think so. i mean, president trump, the united states had probably the best u.n. general assembly meeting we've had since post 9/11 and one of the reasons for that is this incredible debacle that the iranians have executed, literally ten days prior to the u.n. general assembly where most of the presidents of the world are gathering, they conduct an attack on one of the largest oilfields in the world to destabilize the world economy and then they try to get away with it by lying, when knowing
2:45 pm
full well evidence is going to be able to be presented and evidence was presented, so now this condemnation of iran, there's more isolation of them politically, diplomatically and economically than before the conference began. so this is a good thing that's happened here in the sense that the world is coming together to deal with this in a way that foreign ministers, talking about, who i happen to know and he's a very good person here in terms of his knowledge of the world and certainly he's very clear-eyed about the iranians and he's dead right. appeasement has been the path we've been on. that doesn't serve us well. the sanctions are not appeasement. the comprehensive sanctions we're imposing, now that the france, u.k. and germany, are wanting to get involved in as well, it's very significant. eric: do you think that france, germany, other countries as you just said, do you think they will hear his call? and you know his excellence sigh, you know where he stands,
2:46 pm
what he has faced in his country, certainly when you have that threat right to the north emanating from tehran. >> yeah, well, i think it sort of plays like this. most of the countries will agree that iran is an aggressor and behavior has to change. they'll agree on condemning their behavior. there will be less countries involved in sanctioning that in terms of economic sanctions like the united states and there will be fewer countries that would form a coalition to do something about iran's kinetic escalation here and hit them back with a military retaliation strike. so that's kind of the order as i see. but generally speaking, the uninimity on iran's aggressiveness is certainly there that wasn't there a couple weeks ago. eric: the minister said saudi arabia will present more public evidence of tehran's complicity on being behind the attack. on monday dare we're told the
2:47 pm
largest iranian opposition group, they're going to have a news conference in washington on monday where they say they are going to reveal information from inside the iranian regime about this. they had a rally, several rallies with the united nations this past week. you in fact spoke at one of the rallies. looking at one of them right now. what do you expect, have any indication of what type of evidence that group will present and what can they present to show to the world without any doubt that tehrans was behind this latest attack which just wasn't an attack on saudi arabia, but on the whole global energy facility and in fact the global economy. >> oh, yes, they're trying to destabilize the world economy. listen, the way we found out about the he secret site, 250 feet buried in the ground, they came from informants, and our central intelligence agency picked up on those. i don't discount the fact there
2:48 pm
may be inside information that's available to people in terms of what's taken place in iran. but i am very comfortable with our intelligence agencies conclusion that iran struck those oilfields, they flew the drones, they flew the cruise missiles. i think we've got the goods on all of that. we declassified a lot of that information. we haven't declassified all of it. and this is what's happening here, eric. make no mistake about it, the iranians are not coming to the negotiation table yet despite the advertisement they throw out there. they're going to continue their kinetics escalation. that is the playbook and the path that they're on. and we're going to see another escalation, probably something along the same lines or if not more significant, because they're convinced that the only way they're going to bring the united states to stop those sanctions is by imposing a major world crisis to put that kind of pressure on the united states. eric: we'll see what evidence does emerge, likely something on
2:49 pm

2:54 pm
ago, that movement was mostly feasible. this is anything -- peaceful. this is anything but. it also comes three days before the 70th anniversary of the founding of communist china. beijing does not want any violence here to overshadow their national day. so in fact, we saw a much harder line from the police, acting earlier to break up the violent actions and not just aggressive at the scene of the demonstrations, but also following up at bus stops, underground stations, shopping areas, stops and searches, trying to get people off of the streets before they cause even more trouble. but again, at the beginning of this, arthel, there was a rally, several hundred thousand people. we were among them and it was very peaceful. they said we are back and in fact, that rally prompting a statement coming from the local authorities that they are willing to continue with dialogue. but the language of the street, the nasty street, speaking a
