jillian: you know what cactus tastes like? jillian: it's between a cucumber and eggplant texture. does that make sense? rob: we are going to keep analyzing. this it's a good taco though. picker perfect this would be. brian: he has been on before. steve: yes, rodney atkins, talking about "it's america" today is america's taco day. america's vodka day and manufacturing day. and that's why carley shimkus is out at the made in america conference out in indiana. ainsley: it should be can he quilla day. brian: if you are celebrating both vodka and manufacturing day. manufacture and then you have the vodka. the last minute when i saw the weather i tried to book a band like it's a summer concert series. that's how hot it is.

i refuse to admit it's fall when it continues to be humid like this. steve: it's humid outside. we can't have a band when it's raining. brian: the band stays dry. it's the people who get wet. ainsley: did you get a hair cut? brian: four days ago. ainsley: normally the man doesn't notice. brian: a lot of times we go over this stuff nut break. ainsley: there is so much to get to this morning. steve: let's start. ainsley: president trump calling -- on impeachment. brian: expected to send a letter he won't cooperate with the inquiry until nancy pelosi holds a formal vote. steve: griff, essentially what the house is doing is the president is daring nancy pelosi, come on. let's see you have a vote. you want to have this. let's have a vote. griff: that's certainly one way to future steve, ainsley and brian. today is the deadline the house gave secretary pompeo to turn over those documents at risk of obstructing justice. the white house going to

play ball send a letter to speaker pelosi refusing to comply until she takes this final vote. kevin mccarthy sent a similar letter demanding this meet lack of an investigative process if there is no legitimate search for truth. literally a political messaging campaign. speaker pelosi rejected that writing back there is no constitutional requirement for precedent for such a vote. all of this comes after we learned yesterday that former ukrainian special enjoy kurt volcker testified nine hours behind closed doors. big news there is republicans sounding off afterwards at how much it did not produce. >> nothing that coincides with what the democrats are saying with their whole impeachment narrative. >> any allegation that president trump was trying to get president zelensky to manufacture dirt on the bidens is just not true. >> meanwhile, thanks to our mike emanuel, we are learning that senior diplomats, you see them here discuss the suspension of

military aid via text. there is bill taylor texting gordon's son on the eu craze security assistance on the campaign. someone respond saying bill, i believe you are incorrect about president trump's intentions. the president has been crystal clear no quid pro quos of any kind. unclear if either imams will be called to testify, someone who will be back is icig michael attkisson testifying behind closed doors today. let me just add this. our producer, who is from the country of georgia reading ukrainian press multiple reports that say that prosecutor general for ukraine will be reviewing the closure of the burisma case. you will remember that involves vice president biden's son, hunter. guys? steve: how could we forget? it's interesting volcker didn't know what his tum was going to be like. mike pompeo said none of those people are going to go and suddenly he volunteered

to go. yesterday, i think the republicans were surprised at how emphatic he was reportedly. that he said there was no quid pro quo. and that's why the republicans say okay, adam schiff. you have got this -- the transcript locked up. make it public so people can see that this guy who is right there said there was absolutely no quid pro quo. ainsley: doug collins says the reason they don't want to take up this impeachment. 30 to 40 democrats are in seats trump won. they have to go on record and vote for people and constituents won't like it. and putting in jeopardy. people are furious they are not following the rules. brian: ainsley, you are right. will agree to inquiry but not agree to impeachment vote. the "new york times" reporting that two of the president's diplomats did co-author a statement that would have been signed by the ukrainian government before any type of aid would be delivered. i have not seen that statement. that according to the "new york times" michael schmidt and ken vogel who said they

spoke to three different sources on that. what happened with kurt volcker who is basically a volunteer. he is with the mccain institute that volunteered to help out and obviously by some text messages is seems that he got along well with rudy giuliani was working in conjunction with him. but looking overall. i think people's minds should get out of the fact that joe biden is a 2020 possible opponent for president trump and get an understanding this is about 2016 for the president. and it was the vice president representing the obama administration in which the president was focused on because he wants to know what happened that spurred this whole mueller investigation and what was going on behind the scenes. here is mark levin. >> we can't allow the senate to be turned into a nancy pelosi play thing by the house democrats. we don't have a house impeachment inquiry going on here. we have a democrat party impeachment inquiry going on here. only the senate has the power to police what the house democrats are doing. and they should not

participate in this. snopsz has intentionally prevented the republican from issuing subpoenas under this process they're supposed to be able to, they must not allow her to prevail in her unconstitutional lawless in. senate, you better well step up. steve: they are quo equal in the house of representatives and the senate. what are they going to do? we do know the president is going to send that letter out to dare them to go ahead and take a vote. in the meantime yesterday he essentially dared china, hey, china, he was on his way to the villages. hey, china -- you know, maybe they should look into it as well. he was asked that. did you talk to president xi about it. he goes no, but maybe we ought. to say here's the president. >> china should start annual investigation into the bidens. because what happened in china is just about as bad as what happened with ukraine. brian: with that the republicans said uh-oh i

wonder what the heck is going on. they had to recalibrate. they were drafting letter and telling nancy pelosi either put it to a vote or back off or just end this inquiry entirely. when the president came out and said hey, china, look into this and ukraine i want them to look into the bidens, everyone said wait a second. isn't that exactly why the president got himself in trouble in the first place in the president is saying no, it isn't. what i want to find out what is going on before was american foreign policy being sidelined for personal gain in this case for joind? are a all, hunter biden was on air force 2 when this deal was cut. so let's find out what happened there. >> so the democrats furious about that conversation with ukraine said they thought there was quid pro quo, said they launched this impeachment investigation. adam schiff, after he heard the comment. the president said about -- first he said that about ukraine and then he says this about china and this was adam schiff's response to that yesterday. listen. >> encouraging a foreign

nation to interfear again, to help his campaign by investigating a rival is a fundamental breach of the president's oath of office. it endangers our elections. it endangers our national security it. ought to be condemned by every member of this body, democrats and republicans alike. steve: well, after he said that the president got out his smart phone and did some tweeting last night. he said as president of the united states i have an absolute right perhaps a duty to investigate or have investigated corruption that would include asking or suggesting other countries to help us out. president trump said yesterday he felt china had scored a sweetheart deal on trade with the united states because of the bidens. he says that's what you call a pay off. and he thinks china ought to look into everything that hunter biden did during that short time of the state visit in 2013.

ainsley: let us know i'm curious. democrats say this is a breach of oath. the president shouldn't be doing this because is he running against joe biden. many people saying it's not illegal for the president to do. this just curious. weigh in. brian: absolutely. couple things. when joe biden hops up on the stage when he first got into the race and says come on, china is not a rival. come on, man, we can eat their lunch. i say to myself what's he been watching? it makes you wonder in president trump's mind he is saying look how much better i am than the previous administration. do you want to know why i'm having a hard time cutting a deal with china they are holding out hope this guy wins again because of you who well they were treated before. why would the attorney general be in italy why do they care about the snuk simple. all those linked to what spurred the mueller investigation. and we are about to find out john durham. a u.s. attorney respected by both sides found out about that probe. we are about to find out about the inspector general found out when what led to

this whole investigation which really caught the interest of former cia director john brennan. >> he was there in the chair in langley when this investigation started so apparently mr. durham is going to be interviewing him about how it all started. and it sounds like john brennan, former top spy was concerned about that. >> given that barr is now accompanying durham on these things, it really makes me think that the hand of politics, of trump are now being used to massage what this ongoing review quasiinvestigation is i am concerned. i am still very puzzled and troubled by donald trump's actions vis-a-vis russia. it's just something that just makes me very much wonder what is at the root of some of his actions and decisions. steve: brennan also said

that mr. durham is a man of integrity but a.g. barr is the president's attorney, he said. ainsley: jason chaffetz said we really need to look into these two men talking about john brennan and james clapper because they were possibly involved in this fisa abuse. he said we just need some answers. listen. once upon a time democrats were deeply concerned about overseas influence. there is actual evidence out there. this is attorney general william barr doing his job. all of all of a sudden pipes upe hunter biden stuff along the way. brennan in particular, has been, you know, implicated indirectly that as the director of the cia and potentially director of national intelligence were openly involved and engaged and if you are going to get to the bought of the fisa abuse. you have to understand what those two gentlemen were

doing or not doing attorney general said spying did occur. does the cia spy and he says yes he said yes, stay tuned. >> toss back to jillian statements push back about the weather. steve: you said it was hot. ainsley: you said it was hot. brian: i thought it was hot. steve: it's cold. brian: i wasn't cold but i'm getting push back ♪ ainsley: good afternoon, what's the temperature 57? very balmy out there. jillian: i feel like sometimes you go through the motions. you were outside. you walked into the building. brian: i know, but it felt hot. sorry. jillian: fallen nypd officer brian wall keen will be laid to west today. the six year veteran of the force killed by friendly fire while struggling first responders lined the streets as his body was returned to

plan options for seniors, improve the enrollment process, remove unnecessary regulations, and facilitate quicker access to break through treatments. here to react is marty carrie association of independent doctors. she was in the second row yesterday. manory, what did you think of what the president has proposed. >> it was definitely a shot accuse the bough on the democrat side. preaching to the choir. seniors very close to their medicare plans and didn't to the use them. he assured i was encouraged on step-by-step process builds on executive orders for transparency and now we have medicare that he is going to protect for and improve. i think this is a really important move. and i think what americans need to realize is it's well-known in our industry that where medicare goes,

private insurance follows. steve: right. >> this is going to have a huge ripple effect. if he can start controlling the cost and choice and competition within this arena, we are all going to benefit. we are going to get the trickle down effect. steve: we have heard so much about it because there are a number of people running for president, including bernie sanders. his medicare for all plan, to your point about private insurance, it cancels it. it has a four-year transition period and would cost trillions and trillions of dollars. but, nonetheless, if the people down in florida are already on medicare and bernie is saying i'm going to get medicare for everybody, would they like that? >> well, for one thing, it would wipe out the medicare advantage plans which one in every three recipients gets. they would be very upset to lose that this is not one size fits all. medicare is the largest single pair in the healthcare system. making it larger is not going to help. we need to have competition. we need to have choice and

transparency in this system. nobody really knows how medicare for all would roll out but i don't think it's a gamble we want to take. steve: sure. one of the reasons that the democrats took the house in the last election was the fact they were talking about the republicans, if they win, they are going to take away your healthcare choices. now, the president is trying to get in front of this. the question is this enough? >> you know, i have watched him. in the very beginning this administration came out with a reform to improve choice and competition in healthcare. 114 page document. i read this and i go they get it. they really get it. then i saw executive orders unfolding one after another. this is a multi-step process steve. it's not going to happen overnight there are huge head winds against this administration in terms of special interest who do not want to change the status quo. they are going to have all sorts of naysayers out there. the lobbying is very strong. people making a lot of money today don't want to lose that we need to bring down

this house of cards. steve: you know, and the other problem is right now, marny, because washington is at loggerheads, the congress is with the president because the democrats are in control of the house of representatives we are not getting anything done on lowering the price of prescription drugs. >> pharma is coming at this administration from all directions. frankly, so much lobbying money going into the pockets of congress, i'm not sure they are going to get done no matter who is in the house. we need to shoot over them, work with the administration, work with health and human services. work with cms and these folks are not elected; they are appointed. they have the leeway and not bought off by special interest. therein, i think, lies the hope. steve: scary how much money is out there when you are talking about who is trying to convince people. >> it's a lot. steve: it is a lot. mannery carrie, thank you for joining us from older. >> thanks for having me.

>> first of all, let me go back. i don't think the judge did anything wrong. there is nothing wrong with showing empathy and showing compassion. and that was the way that the judge showed it. now as far as this group, here's my deal, if you don't like the bible, then don't you read it. >> that's right. >> don't you carry it. but don't encroach upon anybody else's right to give out the bible, to read the bible. i think that's what makes me mad with these organizations. >> that's right. >> how did that mess with their freedom? >> um-huh. and, also, keep in mind that the bible is in the courtroom. the bible is in the prison. >> it's in the jail cell. and if amber didn't have a problem with accepting the gift of the bible, then why should we? and for another thing for atheist, if you have a problem with god, then stop spending the money because the money you are spending says in god we trust. >> that's right. steve: yeah. there are a lot of groups that say they would like to take "in god we trust" off of the money and out of the halls of congress and

flip side when it comes to ms. maxine waters, he who cries the loudest have a lot of stuff to hide. you have to understand the reason why she go around disparaging and demeaning our president is because what is she hiding? >> um-huh. >> president is draining the swamp and we want to know what is she hiding? she is probably getting kick backs and patty backs. >> that's right. >> probably about to be exposed and that's why she always goes around and calls the president out and says the most damnable things about the president of the united states. >> one more thing for ms. maxine waters, you may not pay what you owe but you will reap what you sow. did you go around spewing hate you will reap hate. steve: no one should ever get death threats. >> we get death threats and she don't care about that. >> that's right. we get death threats. we get called derogatory names. and she is the one that is inciting it. >> that's right. >> she is telling people to hate on other people. she spew hates. she give hate, and she display hate. she is a hateful lady.

>> china should start an investigation into the bidens because what happened in china is just about as

bad as what happened with ukraine. ainsley: president trump doubling down on his call for joe biden and his son to be investigated now saying that china should look into them too. brian: because of the investment deal that evidently was hatched on a trip to air force 2. here with more is fox news correspondent ed henry. >> good morning. brian: we expanded statement when he had his segment on the white house lawn. ed: it keeps going. the democrats have been pouncing on this but they have been pouncing on everything the president has said. we had a lot of president's allies in the last week or so saying the transcript with ukrainian president didn't show that the president wanted to investigate joe biden and hunter biden that it's not clear. now it's sort of clear from the president's own words he does later in that news conference he said he does want ukraine to investigate joe and hunter biden and maybe china ought to as well because of business dealings over there the private equity fund. here's the point. the president is not hiding that he wants an investigation of all of

this. the question is going to be was it tied to u.s.s. aid to ukraine? could they prove that so far there has been no evidence of that the president hats denied it was directly tied or that there was any quid pro quo and i think the big picture point is no matter what is found here, the democrats move forward on this impeachment inquiry before they had the transcript of the call. before they had the text messages that we're going to talk about back and for the between some of the diplomats. so adam schiff has a bit of a credibility problem in terms of them going forward with all of this before they had the facts. the president is going to have to make sure the facts are on his side though. he has been honest and transparent publicly about how he wants this investigated and by the way it's put a spotlight on jobe and hunter biden the way the democrats didn't want. brian: i'm not sure all democrats are upset guy. ed: elizabeth warren might be happy. steve: at the same time, ed, it sounds like the president last night drafted a letter going to send to nancy pelosi all right, nancy pelosi, i'm not going to have to respond to any of your requests or the

administration until you take a vote. ed: yes. steve: he wants those democrats in toss-up districts to be officially on are you thumbs up or thumbs down? ed: that's one reason and a big reason. get these democrats who flipped the majority from the republicans by taking trump districts the districts carried in 2016 and turn them blue in 2018. put them on the record. give them political heat. you are right. that's a reason. another reasonable i'm hearing from people close to the president is if you have a formal vote for inquiry, which they haven't done yet, all of a sudden the subpoena power adam schiff has, it goes to the minority side as well. steve: they get to ask questions and invite witnesses. brian: right. ainsley: get on the record and more questions. >> also about what happened in 2016 which the president is trying to get at. ainsley: yesterday i was watching harris' show and text messages came out because kurt volcker the former u.s. envoy to ukraine spent hours of testimony. steve: nine. ainsley: nine hours on

capitol hill answering questions from these three committees. these text messages come out between u.s. diplomats. it was kurt volcker. it was bill taylor, the temporary ambassador for u.s. and ukraine and gordon sunland ambassador to the eu. let's read these text messages and talk about it. bill said as i said on the phone i think it's crazy to withhold security assistance for help with the political campaign. gordon sondland bill, i believe you are incorrect about the president trump's intentions. the president has been clear no quid pro quos of any kind. >> some these were released last night and yesterday afternoon with an ah-ha by democrats. they were trying to connect the allegation is holding back as i referred a moment ago u.s. aid hundreds of million dollars of dollars to ukraine unless the president got what he wanted. steve: because that would be illegal. >> because you had a quid pro quo. it's very clear from that exchandz that at least one of the democrats saying no, no, no. the president is not tying these two together.

ainsley: because i think you are incorrect. ed: are the democrats going to look at this fairly and look at the whole picture or try to prove a narrative that they believe to impeach him? steve: we know the answer. ed: i will leave that question. brian: the "new york times" has a report today that a statement was drafted. tell the ukraine you will get your money as soon as we know you are launching an investigation. they have never -- they never signed it. ed: you make a great point. text messages go back and forth among other things, ainsley, they were saying let's negotiate language on a statement from the new ukrainian government saying we are going to launch an investigation of burisma and hunter biden. but that statement never came. there is a whole lot of investigation about -- and i'm not excusing. if there was bad stuff going on behind the scenes they should dig into it. bottom line number one is in the end the ukrainians did not release the statement that the trump administration wanted. that might be a whole lot of nothing. number two, what about the investigation of joe and hunter biden and whether anything was there the biden camp keeps saying there is

no there there. has it been fairly looked at? there was a whole lot of money $83,000 a month from hunter biden ukrainian company which he doesn't have a whole lot of experience. maybe it was above board. we don't know but let's find out. steve: regarding china, the president said yesterday china wound up with a sweetheart deal on trade with the united states because of the bidens. ed: right. brian made this point earlier, joe biden not even back in the obama administration at the beginning of his campaign says trump doesn't know what he is talking about. why is he fighting with china? they are not the biggest rival. why is joe biden going easy on china? tie some of this together. because of what happened back then? brian: and with some numbers. according to the "the washington post." the house democrats they have 235. 225 back impeachment inquiry but only 28 publicly favor impeaching the president. ed: right. brian: that's what the president is digging in on those numbers. ed: you may have some people on the fence more moderate democrats saying are we

really going to go forward on this. frankly, once nancy pelosi said she is moving forward with the inquiry, i don't see how the democrats pull back from the brink. their base has been angry for a couple years that there wasn't impeachment. if you now dangle it out there and investigate all this and then you don't have a vote and you don't move forward, does it boomerang on the democrats even more that some, you know, independent voters say why did you do this in the first place? some democratic voters say why did you do it and not finish it? brian: i know you don't have update anchor on the weekends and we're looking jillian over your shoulder playing outside left. ed: she is great. i want to know about the weather. i was in my hotel and hearing that it's really warm out. you know the news but the weather. jillian: started brian. ainsley: 6:00 brian said it's so hot outside we are like it's 60. ed: start of fall, brian. jillian: it's hot somewhere that's what he is a thinking. steve: flashback to july. jillian: other headlines and we begin with this.

really tragic. a widow who watched her husband take off right before a deadly plane crash says he knew something was wrong. >> they were working on the engine. they were having some type of issue. at that point my husband sent me a text message that says this does not bode well. we were meant to be together apparently not forever. jillian: bless her heart. husband killed when vintage world war ii plane crashed into a warehouse. he was a history bluff. the tour flight was on his bucket list. now to this awesome act of patriotism caught on camera. you can see this highway patrol officer pull over when he sees an american flag lying on the side of a busy nevada freeway. the trooper and air force veteran then hops out and rescues old glory which is believed to have fallen off a truck. he brought the flag to his local american legion lodge where it will be properly retired. friday night smack down

are doing. what's your reaction to the dollar figure? >> well, they have been trying to impeach this president since day one. democrats have never accepted the results of 2016. energy with our base is strong. they recognize democrats are trying to full my their vote and it just bringing in so much enthusiasm but also financial support for the president, which is allowing us right now to attack democrats in their home district. brian: right away. 125 million you guys got last quarter. joe biden has dropped 15 million while he has dropped in the polls. by the way bernie sanders has done better. you know, buttigieg has done better. i don't know why people feel they have extra money to support him. he has no shot. and then you have joe biden fourth place. >> yeah. elizabeth warren hasn't released her numbers yet. look at bernie sanders 25 million. the rnc and the trump campaign combined $125 million. that's double where obama

was heading into his re-election. dollars are the polls right now. the money coming in for this president is showing that we are well ahead. people know their lives are better and they are willing to put their money thinsd. as much as those wins are gratifying pennsylvania michigan and wisconsin they were small victories, slight victories and very much depend on farmers, manufacturers and suburban moms. all three are vulnerable. they show that in 2018. what is is the president's focus to getting them back? >> you have seen the president talk to nancy pelosi. let's pass usmca. it will put a lot of relief for our farmers it will bring manufacturing jobs back. democrats have done nothing. since the president has gotten elect the. it's certainly not brought trade deals that will help people in michigan and pennsylvania and ohio and wisconsin. they need to pass usmca and suburban moms, they recognize wages are up. jobs are coming back. their lives are better. their kids can graduate from college and get a job and

live in the state that they are from. these are things that women, like myself, look at when they are taking the total of this administration and what they have done and accomplished. brian: when there is an impeachment it's always been the second term. i don't know about andrew johnson i wasn't doing polling them knicks and clinton were second term. do you worry have the numbers and it doesn't and stops in the senate. do you worry that you would be dealing with an injured president? >> i don't. because americans are looking at this as a total partisan attack against this president. you look at the phone call, anybody looking at the phone call knows there is nothing impeachable. only down party lines and democrats day one have refused to work with this president. americans are saying enough is enough. why don't you get to the negotiating table and work on our behalf instead of trying to negate the vote of 63 million americans. brian: republican suburban moms say they want something, will the president give them anything? >> the president has done a lot.

he has eliminated bump stocks. they have fix nics programs. mental health. the president doesn't want the guns in the hands of the mentally ill. he is going to push to make sure that we're making sure those people do not get access to guns. brian: ronna mcdaniel thank you so much. >> good to see you. brian: you are going to have one busy year coming up. made in america conference is official little underway highlighting hundreds of american manufacturers. carley shimkus is getting paid to hang out there. how does that work? ♪ freedom ♪ freedom ♪ freedom ♪ you got to give for

steve: thank you for joining us. we have two more hours and it starts with this. i dare you. president trump is calling on democrats and calling nancy pelosi's bluff regarding impeachment. ainsley: today the white house is expected to send a letter saying that he won't cooperate with the inquiry until speaker nancy pelosi holds a formal vote. brian: griff jenkins is live in washington to explain how the democrat's claims against the president may have just gotten weaker although some say stronger. hey, griff. >> the house democrats are daring secretary pompeo to not turn over documents or risk obstructing congress. that deadline is today. but the white house isn't playing ball. they are expected to send a letter to pelosi today refusing to comply until a formal vote is taken. now minority leader kevin mccarthy already sent a letter to nancy pelosi demands a vote writing this complete lack of a balanced underwriting process underscores there is no

search legitimate search for truth merely a political messaging campaign. >> said there is no precedent. kurt volcker testified behind closed doors for more than nine hours until chairman adam chief wasn't talking afterwards but republicans sounded off. >> nothing that coincides with what the democrats are saying with their whole impeachment narrative. >> any allegation that president trump was trying to get president trump zelensky to manufacture dirt on the bidens is just not true. >> in a big revelation we are learning these senior diplomats discussed the administration's suspension of military aid via text. you see here ukrainian message bill taylor texting gordon sond land i think it's crazy to withhold security assistance for help with a political campaign. >> bill, i believe you are incorrect about president trump's intentions. the president has been crystal clear no quid pro quos of any kind. unclear if either of those

ambassadors will be called to testify. we will see the inspector general for the intelligence community, michael attkisson back on the hill behind closed doors testifying today. guys, news outs of ukraine this morning. the prosecutor general is announcing he had a press conference in kiev that he will be reviewing all cases closed by his predecessor, including the one involving burisma where hyden biden sat on the board. ainsley: that means they're going to investigate? griff: it means they will review the closure, ainsley. that certainly would be along the lines of what the administration has asked for which is an investigation. brian: there is two things to it. number one, why was hunter biden on this board with no experience, with his dad in charge of the ukraine during the obama years. and number two burisma corrupt? i can't tell you about natural gas trade. there is the corruption of burisma and the role of hunter biden. i think the average american couldn't care less about burisma they want to find out what the bidens were doing. ainsley: thanks, griff. steve: the case was officially closed i closed in te ukraine in 2016. it did not look at all into

hunter biden. instead, it looked at tax irregularities of burisma and money laundering allegations regarding the people who ran it. so, now, what the government is saying is essentially what the president had wanted, and that is can you look into what happened there with that thing and so now they are going to do it and, of course, yesterday, the breaking news from the south lawn as the president flew to the villages is now he is saying maybe china should look into what hunter biden did when he flew into town on air force 2 with joe biden the vice president of the united states. ainsley: we heard some of the conservatives say what if the roles were reversed? they feel like it's a double standard. what if this were president trump's son and the president was putting him on certain panels or boards and was making a lot of money. what would be the fall back and media saying about that. brian: both saying in stories the trump administration used certain meetings to pressure the country to straighten up when it comes to corruption

and to investigate what happened with the bidens. and whether they actually did it, whether legislation got in front of the new president's desk. we know. this the president, when he was talking on july 25th with the president of the united states, he did not know that aid was being delayed. by the way, i'm sure coincidentally, the aid was okayed yesterday when they got javelin missiles going over there. their tank busters. steve: i heard somebody say that ukraine didn't find out about the aid being withheld until they read about it in politico. ainsley: if you want to read more about that investigation there is an article in the "wall street journal" talking about how the prosecutor in ukraine is going to investigate and open that up investigation again and look into joe biden. doug collins was on yesterday and he was talking about the president sending this letter, you know, to nancy pelosi saying we are not going to comply with this inquiry until you take a vote because you are not doing it the right way. every speaker that's gone before you has had to do it this certain way. they have had to take a vote for impeachment. you are not doing that we want those names on record saying yea or nay to

impeachment because there is an election next year and trump won many of these areas where these democrats need to go on the record, the president is saying. listen to what doug collins said about it. >> you know, who is scared about now? about 30 or 40 democrats in seats that president trump won. >> good. >> they will have to actually go on record now and say look, speaker pelosi, if you want to take us down this path you are recognizing you are putting in jeopardy the house majority that you won last year on a platform of what you were going to do something for the american people. if you want to do it by the book, then do that speaker pelosi, chairman nadler, chairman schiff who hasn't found -- he can't spell truth much less sell it. this is a problem we are seeing right now. they are destroying the constitution in the house. everyone republicans democrats and independents ought to agree to that. brian: yesterday was volcker behind closed doors. republicans felt good about his testimony. next week is going to be problematic. ambassador maria -- she was the ambassadors that the trump administration was pretty sure was anti-trump

and was pushing back against rudy giuliani's push for an investigation. so she, obviously, will be -- you would assume would be loaded forebear behind closed doors. ainsley: something needs unveiled we will unveil it and get down to the bottom of it and find out if anything wrongs was done. we all want the law to be followed. steve: i believe there is a story out in the "wall street journal" today that says that she, when she was the ambassador, was bad-mouthing the president of the united states. and rudy giuliani said to the president, she is undermining you. have you got to do something about it. meanwhile, the president wants to do something about healthcare in this country. yesterday, he flew down to the villages where he signed an executive order called the protecting and improving medicare program. and what it does is expands plan options for seniors, improves the enrollment process. removes unnecessary regulations and gives people quicker access to brea breakthrough treatments. that's the president's approach. meanwhile the left has a different approach.

as the president said yesterday in america's happiest town, the villages. >> today standing in solidarity with our nation's seniors, i declare once again that america will never be a socialist country. we will never be. [cheers] [. >> while many democrats plans would eliminate medicare advantage, my administration is fighting to make it even better. they want to raid medicare to fund a thing called socialism. many socialists in the room? [crowd boos] >> [chanting four more years] >> want to drive them crazy, don't say four more years, say eight more years.

steve: pickle ball. brian: they always show up when we show up. we did a live show there and wrestled an alligator and saved people from certain death. steve: it weighed two pounds. ainsley: plastic. brian: mouth was taped upon further review. also the president signed executive order to allow the private option when it comes to medicare to be able to use private insurance. so i think if you talk to people who have medicare who are seniors, if they can afford it, they love having a supplemental to go with it. doctors would be quicker to take you if you had that supplement. ainsley: they want choice. steve: that's what it is all about. we have a choice and time for news with jillian. jillian: good morning to you. let's start off with this story. we brought it yesterday. here's the update. the man who went on a deadly stabbing spree on police in paris was hearing voices. according to french media, his wife tells police he had a psychotic episode the night before the attack. four people, including three cops, were killed when the it worker pulled out a knife at police headquarters. he was shot and killed.

a motive is not yet known. but it may have been a workplace dispute. police are not ruling out terrorism. the he is changed husband of the missing connecticut mom is back in court today. dulos has trial tampering charges connected with the disappearance of his wife jennifer dulos. his lawyer is also working to dismiss a gag order. dulos recently telling a greek magazine jennifer dulos has serious psychological problems. jennifer went missing in may. bernie sanders expected to be back on the campaign trail soon. the presidential candidate promising to be on the next debate stage less than two weeks after he had two stents placed in blocked arteries. the vermont senator's wife gave an update on his condition but would not say exactly what happened to him. >> he is doing wonderfully. he has been, you know, walking around a lot. take a few days to rest up. if we can convince him to stop talking about all the issues, i don't think that will happen.

>> 12 candidates, including bernie have qualified for the next debate on october 15th. and who could forget this from the 2016 election cycl cycle? >> force the conversation the government living within its means, please, clap. [applause] jillian: kamala harris had her own please cap moment on the campaign trail. watch this. >> in this election, in the last couple -- i don't know, maybe couple months, certainly few weeks, there is this whole conversation coming up about electabilit electability. focused on our campaign. is america ready for that? >> harris getting that very enthusiastic reaction town hall in reno, nevada, and hey, look what i have in my hands only the best selling candy. brian: that according to you. ainsley: don't release the

best one yet. we will start with the worse. jillian: okay, okay. sorry. my favorite. steve: good tease. she goes for the reese's pieces. steve: worse halloween candying. >> necco waivers. number 4 wax cola bottles. [screams] >> number three peanut butter kisses. number 2 circus peanuts. ainsley: i agree with that one. worst number one candy is candy corn. what are they talking about? brian: with the coke bottles do you eat the wax? steve: can you do whatever you want. brian: number two the problem with candy corn is they lost focus good on the outside. on the inside just flakes. steve: try one. it's delicious. brian: i remember. i had this in 1979. ainsley: eat the white first the orange and then the yellow. steve: best candies according to the survey. thanks for taking it down.

number 5, m&ms. number 4 kit kat. number two snickers and number one what jillian showed us a minute ago reiss see's peanut butter cup. i have advice even though you know they are the best. please put twizzlers in your bucket. i love twizzlers. halloween are the best. they are little and a little bit better. steve: is candy corn the worst halloween candy? jillian: no. jillian: good when you mix these two. brian: pick out a costume haunt you for the rest of your life and keep you from getting a job in the future. jillian: way to bring down the news. brian: coming up straight ahead. after nine hours of testimony from the former ukraine envoy his name is kurt volcker house republicans say the democrat impeachment narrative is ruined.

>> what did you learn? >> we don't have any comments about the interview until it has been concluded. >> there have you house intel committee chairman adam schiff staying unusually quiet. kurt volcker. brian: republican colleagues say volcker remarks contradict the democrats' move for impeachment. ainsley: here to react is "fox & friends weekend" co-host pete hegseth. >> hello. ainsley: why disappointed? set backs. >> these closed doors sessions are about as private as times square. and including adam schiff and all of them. if there is one nugget, one thing while the hearing is going on, they will rush to the cameras, text a

reporter, let him know this is the new bombshell to run on cnn an and nbc for the next two days. instead they walk by the cameras maybe for nine hours this public servant this diplomat told the truth about the reality of why there was pressure put on ukraine that it wasn't about a quid pro quo at all. it was about druption there is a new prosecutor and new opportunity and president trump was doing that so the testimony backfired. they didn't know what he was going to say. i don't think the republicans actually got to ask him any questions. the democrats asked all the questions. and now the republicans want the transcripts released so everybody can say hey, look, they tried for nine hours to get him to say something that was going to, you know, impeach the character of the president and they never got it. pete: instead the only thing they want released the democrats are these text messages that they think show some sort of nefarious activity. steve: wants to say in one case there was no quid pro quo? pete: i read these text messages where they specifically say the president does not want a quid pro quo.

he wants them to stop the corrupt way they do business. and then we will be willing to invest the hard earned taxpayer dollars that that's always been his load star. when you pay taxes, you are a citizen in this country, the money we take from you ought to be used well. why would it go to a corrupt government? especially if there are companies where there are former vice presidents are enriching themselves. this is nepotism. this boomerangs right back on joe biden not because is he a potential rival in 2020 but because he used his position potentially to enrich his family members which people ought to rightfully be frustrated about. brian: i just see gerry connolly virginia democrat said this i walked away very bothered that private citizen rudy giuliani albeit attorney roaming around in another country reporting to wear semiofficial hat digging up dirt on potential political opponents. i don't think that rudy giuliani would characterize it that way. >> no. if they are so certain, if every piece of evidence and every witness they bring is bringing a new bombshell, then call a vote, nancy pelosi. call the vote. they have called her bluff. they have not followed the

process to begin with republicans can't subpoena anybody. they are running their own show. it's called an inquiry, whatever that is, most cowardly impeachment this country has ever seen because they don't have anything to impeach him on and they know it would make him vulnerable. ainsley: what's coming up this weekend on "fox & friends"? pete: it's national do something nice day. and they're letting me on the show. ed should really be on. it's national coaches day as well. we will have coaches on. luxury suvs. steve: terrific. pete: when should you buy your tickets when you are traveling how many days out for thanksgiving and christmas. i have hai have a lot of kids id to figure that out. mark morgan, lawrence jones, dan bongino, mike huckabee. big weekend. lots to talk about. steve: we'll be watching. ainsley: be nice day. you have a check hanging out of your pocket right there. pete: i do. ainsley: if you are really nice, you will give it over to you. pete: not for you but be nice tout yankees the minnesota twins will take bronx. brian: if that does happen

[laughter] has [bleep] chief i call him. >> how dare he say the things he does. of course i want to punch him in the face. >> right. steve: i have a feeling he is not going to vote for president trump in 2020. brian: what's going on with that? does he have any composure at all? this is on camera. do you imagine what he is like when not being on

camera? >> oh my god, listen, this guy is talking like a gangster. we're going to do. this i'm going to take you out. he is talking about the president of the united states. you know, mr. trump is like a genius. a genius compared to these people. and he is working really hard for the american people. this country is doing better than before and these people have completely lost their minds because they are sheep in hollywood in this globe like surrounded by the same people. they follow everybody else. they can't make up their own minds. these people say this. so they have to do exactly like that. they don't have their own control, their own future. this is crazy. they are slaves to that world. and we have to stand up. we have to send people to hollywood to make sense out of people. explain to me what the president is doing wrong for you. and they can't give you a reason. they just hate him. they don't love this country. they hate him so much. i wish they could put our country first. ainsley: his assistant worked for him a long time graham chase robinson and she looks to win next says of $12 million. >> win it all. ainsley: she wants back pay and wants compensatory

damages, liquid damages. punitive damages. his attorney released this statement said the allegations made by graham chase robinson against robert deniro are absurd. when you speak out in favor of this president, and your conservative values, are you scared you are going to lose jobs in hollywood? >> i was blacklisted. that's why i li in florida. that's why i live in tampa and i got a new job working for c and c concrete pumping. i have a new career. managers left me. they blacklist you. i'm not kidding you. i have family and kids i have to be away from my kids. me and my girl trying to survive do the right thing. hollywood completely does whatever they want if they don't like you and that's wrong. i'm still standing strong. still fighting. still an american. i still love this president and i could care less what hollywood says about me. steve: antonio sabato jr. what's the name of your company again? >> c and c concrete pumping right here in florida. we can build the wall, mr. president.

brian: just hearing us reminds me of the fgl house not on broadway over to the left. steve: a side street. ainsley: if we have florida georgia line music you always talk about their bar in nashville. brian: it has three stories. ainsley: what's the one that have 10 members to their band. brian: elo. ainsley: there is another one. brian: imagine dragons. steve: 10 members in the band. ainsley: driving gavin crazy. do you all have to comment on every music we play? brian: why do you care what a p.a. says? steve: we will bring in victor davis hanson fellow at the hoover institution. he joins us from out in michigan, i believe. victor, good morning to you. ainsley: good morning. >> good morning. steve: what do you make of this "wall street journal" report came out about an hour ago? apparently the country of ukraine is going to review the investigations into the firm linked to joe biden's son.

what they are going to do is review the general prosecutor in ukraine is going to review the past investigation into burisma, which was closed back in 2016. they did not focus on hunter biden but now they are going to see if there is any there there, victor. >> well, i mean, this whole mellow drama was never about what trump says. it's about what people did. and we know from joe biden's own admission and from the facts in the case of his son that he wouldn't have been in the ukraine if his father wasn't vice president and he did some benefits for a company for which he was compensated with the idea that his father could leverage the u.s. government favorably. that's the case. and the impeachment that -- this impeachment hysteria that followed it was based on nancy pelosi jumping the gun and jumping the proverbial shark. she went in to this without reading the transcript of the presidential call and without reading the

whistleblower's complaint. but most importantly, we're at the very beginning of this. we don't know anything about hunter biden other than it looks very suspicious. and this 234-6gs is going to keep coming out and out and out. we are just beginning. you don't impeach a president because a leaker on second and third hand information consults four other leakers and trans mits that information a democratic staffer or staffers on the house intelligence committee prepped by a lawyer, that's not a leaker or a partisan. that's where we are right now. ainsley: victor, the president says he has the absolute right, even perhaps a duty to investigate or have investigated corruption. and he says that could include asking or suggesting other countries to help out. and then kind of doubles down on this yesterday. first he wants ukraine to look into it and now he wants china. to say listen to what he said yesterday.

>> china should start an investigation into the bidens. because what happened to china is just about as bad as what happened with ukraine. ainsley: okay. so now the democrats are really upset that he said that they said here we go again. and congressman adam schiff he said that's a breach of. your thoughts? >> donald trump has been harder tha on china than any president. and harder on russia and ukraine. whether he wants or dreams people should do this or that doesn't really matter. he hasn't acted improperly. much less has he said anything that would be impeachable. he has been very tough on all these countries. that's not indicative of a president who wants a quid pro quo. that's in contrast with the obama administration. remember, that democratic journalists told us, apprized us back in 2016

that the obama administration intelligence agency, then hillary clinton's campaign were not only using a foreign national, christopher steele, who was using russian sources but more importantly they were working with ukraine to find dirt on donald trump's campaign. so this isn't an abstract theoretical matter for donald trump. he was almost destroyed by the clinton campaign and the obama administration intelligence officers. his transition was undermined in his early presidency was almost aborted. so obviously he is going to be emotional, what we want to look at is has he been soft on these countries next change for favorable and investigation. was there anything to investigate? and the answer is there is a lot of stuff that happened that should be investigated. and he has been very tough on these countries. brian: listen, if there was disciplined messaging instead of the president being a one man army, they would have said i'm focusing on what happened in 2016 to stop it from happening again in 2020. because ukraine could play a

role and we know china has better cyber security than any other nation. when you talk about impeachment. this is something so odd. one thing we're about to show you is a look back to 1998 where these same players pushing for impeachment had a different say. and the other thing that sticks in mind is these people never leave their jobs. watch. >> mr. speaker, it is a cow coup d'etat when youism peach a president even if true the majority of scholars say is not impeachable offenses. it is a coup d'etat when most of the prosecutors testifying in front of the a committee no would seek an indictment on the evidence we have. >> i rise in strong opposition to impeachment. i rise in strong opposition to this attempt at a bloodless coup d'etat. >> i am greatly disappointed in the raw, unmasked, unbridled hatred and meanness that drives this

impeachment coup d'etat. brian: does that amaze you? >> yeah, it does. >> because bill clinton, after all was found by federal judge to have lied under oath and he was disbarred from legal practice. whether that's an impeachable offense doesn't really matter, but it's a lot more than what's happened to donald trump. it's a larger issue of projection. every time the democrats and the partisans say foreign country interfered or somebody leaked or somebody obstructed justice, it's usually a preemptive, i don't know whether it's psychological or it's strategic, it's an effort or a ga gamut to mask their own behavior. when they say coup coup coup, it's because they know they have tried to use that same language themselves. and so-what we're all confused about is how can a group of people who tried to interfere in an election through foreign sources. steve: right. >> or tried to obstruct a fisa court. or tried to leak information that was classified then be

outraged by supposed leaks that didn't happen or collusion that didn't happen or interference with a court that didn't happen. and i think it's time for everybody to say this guy, this woman, whoever they are, they are not whistleblowers. they are not. they are leakers. and why dignify the activity of transmitting third hand hearsay from leakers inside the white house to a partisan staffer on capitol hill and dress that all up as a whistleblower when actually it was a preplanned hit on a president through the use of a very sophisticated legal team and political operation? >> and the president himself has made that argument. victor davis hanson fellow at the hoover institution joining us from the studios of hillsdale college in michigan. thank you very much for joining us on this friday. >> thank you. steve: great perspective. brian: guess what else is happening in washington? nothing. like not getting to work. stopping on the side of the road and not going to work.

♪ steve: fox news gang live from studio f on a friday, another busy friday. brian: yep. we have a lot to get to. let's begin. i dare you. president trump calling the democrats bluff on impeachment. steve: president trump says she will not cooperate with congress and speaker until they hold a

formal vote. ainsley: democrats claims against the president may have gotten weaker. president says i dare you. take a vote. reporter: busy news friday. let me start with actually news out of ukraine. we are just learning the prosecutor in key very kiev. they will review cases involving burisma including the one that had hunter biden on the board. could it happen? yes, depending what he finds. this all comes as you mention house democrats gave secretary pompeo today until turn over documents or risk obstructing congress. white house sending a letter to speaker pelosi until a formal vote is taken. minority leader kevin mccarthy laid this out in the letter demanding a vote and coy equal subpoena power. this is complete lack of balance investigative process underscores there is no

legitimate search for truth here. merely a political messaging campaign. pelosi rejected writing back there is no constitutional requirement or house precedent for a vote. that is a big standoff. all this comes as former uranium special envoy kurt volcker testified for nine 1/2 hours yesterday. intel chairman adam schiff didn't have anything to say but republicans sounded off. >> nothing that coincides with what the democrats say in the whole impeachment narrative. >> any allegation president trump was trying to get president zelensky manufacture dirt on the bidens it is just not true. reporter: factor in one more. we learned about these two, bill taylor on your left and gordon sunday land ambassador to the eu discussing the text and administration suspension of military aid. taylor wrote quote, i think it is crazy to withhold security assistance for help with political campaign. sunday land said i believe you are incorrect about president

trump's intentions. the president is crystal clear no quid pro quos of any kind. unclear if any of those ambassadors are called to testify. michael atkinson the i.g. is testifying behind closed doors. very busy heading into the weekend. steve: no kidding. since it is friday at 8:00 hour, let's bring in geraldo rivera. >> hello. steve: we heard griff talking about kurt volcker who testified behind closed doors for nine hours. okay. anything else you want to say, geraldo? kurt volcker testified nine hours yesterday. the republican was love to see the transcript come out because he was emphatic, nine hours he says there was no quid pro quo. some people are suggesting that maybe this whole impeachment inquiry thing right now kind of backfiring? >> well, you know there is one sure way to find out, steve,

that is to hold a vote, a formal vote on whether there should be a house impeachment inquiry. impeachment is a political process. nancy pelosi the speaker is right in the sense she can say impeachment is next tuesday we'll go to the 7-eleven we'll hang out and see how we feel. it could be anything. it is also a trauma. it is obvious with all the emotion that this thing has been generating and in just the last few days and weeks, this is real, real, drama. for fourth time in 243-history of our republic we are pondering whether or not to throw out of office a duly-elected president of the united states. for god's sakes there must be some kind of rules and there must be some precedent. we know that in 1974 the house had to vote whether or not they should proceed with the impeachment inquiry of richard nixon. they voted overwhelmingly to do so. then again in eight eight.

something i was intimately involved in. president clinton, again there had to be a house vote whether or not the inquiry should proceed. so that is the last two times there was a vote on the house inquiry. nancy pelosi in defying that precedent really risks losing any kind of credibility it seems to me. ainsley: doug collins had the best sound bite on this because he said she is throwing the rules of the house in the trash. he says there are 30 or 40 people are up for re-election and they could lose their seats if they -- steve: tossup districts. ainsley: tossup districts if they say we impeach her. that is trump country. the majority could be put in jeopardy if they have this vote. do you agree with kevin mccarthy? he wrote a letter to nancy pelosi yesterday. he said this is merely a political messaging campaign? will they ever have this vote? >> ainsley, i think that, you hit the nail on the head. why is nancy pelosi the speaker of the house not keying on

having vote on the impeachment inquiry? she is not keen on having that vote because she fears that those democrats that you just described, ainsley, those who won in trump districts, who won in 2018 in districts that the president carried in 2016 they would be in jeopardy because they would be forced to reveal themselves. they would be forced to pick a lane. they would be forced to say yea or nay i'm for throwing the president out of office for impeachment or for letting the process wait until the november 2020 elections in the due order. they would be forced to be revealed. if you're democrat in a republican district or swing district, and you're voting to get rid of this president, you will have to defend yourself to your constituent back home. it ain't going to be easy. brian: just on the case itself, just to give you an idea what everyone is reporting everyone has a different source, "new york times" says there was a draft made you, handed over to the ukrainians to say, if you

want your your money, we need yo sign off you will investigate burisma, you will investigate biden. and now cnn is reporting that on, june conversation with president xi of china the president brought up joe biden and also said he would keep quiet on hong kong. for you to have a conversation public with a world leader like this again shows you definitely have people in your own administration who have turned on you. what do you think about those two revelations? >> you know, can i just have, brian a slightly different take as the father of five including two boys and you know, we've had our ups and downs, every family does. i feel awful for joe biden. he is a nice guy. he served the country. you know, i fear that this process will destroy his legacy. i think that the nice guy, old joe, i never thought he would go all the way, i thought that

something would happen, something is happening but in a profound and awful way. now his son, who he has struggled with, drugs and alcohol, and getting thrown out of the navy, getting, finally getting a job maybe with his help, you know, then maybe he gave too much help. maybe there was too much political favoritism, all the rest of it, i see this is a personal tragedy and the democrats have no idea how destructive this will be, first to the bidens, i think, ultimately to them. how they are portrayed. brian: regardless, everyone watching has struggles and challenges. when you're vice president of the united states, put you in charge of the ukraine shouldn't let your 37-year-old son get involved in energy company. that is not hard. >> i'm not arguing. brian: in china he is on air force two with this investment that ends up, took root, comes to fruition 10 days later. it brings up question, if he wants to be president he has got

to answer them. >> if it is what it is alleged then whoa on to both of them and we'll move on from there. steve: right. brian: what about the president bringing it up. >> give me moment for personal sympathy there. ainsley: we all agree with that. when you serve, my gosh, your family is just you go through the ringer. i do feel sorry in that regard but other countries, comments on china, because china is helping out his son that is an issue we have to talk about. >> it is, but the other thing, ainsley there is some judgment calls. who knows, foreign policy is like making stew. you don't know what goes into it. you don't know what promises are made. ainsley: you're going to give biden a pass, if you're going to give biden a pass, there can't be a double standard? >> i'm not. don't misunderstand me, i want

us all to have regret when it comes to the destruction of a political dynasty for reasons that appear to be pretty mean and you know, self-serving. brian: my question was, should the president brought it up, real quick? >> you know, i don't tell this president what to do. i can tell you this. he hasn't changed at all in 45 years. brian: okay. >> this is the guy i know. whether he is dealing with realtor developer across the street or dealing with the china, this is the guy i've always known. he doesn't have unexpressed thought. brian: gotcha. >> if he feels something you will hear about it. or tweet about it. steve: much like you, geraldo. >> much like me. steve: have a great weekend. >> thanks. ainsley: i love that man. brian: he says hello to you while steve is talking. ainsley: three times. brian: hey, jillian. jillian: here is story we've

he suddenly developed this interest in the ukraine and how much money might being withheld and what rudy giuliani was doing there. he was exploiting this, building it up before it came out. even after it came out, he played mom and acted as though he didn't know what was going on, to suggest the white house was engaged in a coverup about a complaint he had known about all along. steve: he was also on msnbc and said we have not spoken directly with the whistleblower. he said we, but one of his staff members had spoken to him broadly about the case. after the staff member said, what you need to do, you need to get a lawyer, you need to talk to the inspector general and you need to file this complaint. then that staff member didn't identify the whistleblower but told mr. schiff all about it. that is how he knew. >> he had been fully briefed on this. they have also admitted that he got the broad contours of what

this is about. he knew the subject matter. he knew it was coming. and yet, as you said, he claimed that they hadn't talked to him. at one point he gave a press conference he thanked the inspector general for bringing it to him, if he hadn't done that the country might not even have known about it. he had known about it all along. steve: kim, what do you make of the president as he was on his way to the villages, signing a executive order on health care where he called on ukraine and china to look into the bidens? ukraine, the prosecutor announced he will look into the burisma dealings closed back in 2016. people are wondering, what is china going to do? typical donald trump, right? >> classic donald trump. he doesn't back down. he doubles down. democrats will seize on this. they will continue talking about political dirt on a rival and abuse of power. that may sway some americans. i think the fundamental problem for democrats here though is, why it still is mystifying they

chose this of all issues to go forward with impeachment on, is that for a lot of americans they look at this, they see a double standard. they don't understand how democrats can say this is an impeachable offense when democrats seemed to have no problem with hillary clinton's campaign directing russian disinformation to the fbi against the trump campaign. so that is their fundamental political issue with this, with this particular issue. steve: read all about it in the pages of "wall street journal." wsj.com. thank you very much for getting up early with us. >> thanks. steve: you bet. we're waiting on breaking news on the economy. the september jobs report is about to be released. we'll bring you the numbers live when they come out exactly at the other side of this time out with that man, stuart varney. ♪

ainsley: we are back with a fox news alert. the september jobs numbers are due out any moment. brian: why we bring in stuart varney from the host of "varney & company," fox business. he is also the guy featured on "fox nation," your take. called "my take". >> that is correct. brian: stuart, what are they projecting the number to be? >> these are very important numbers because we had indications economy is slowing down. manufacturing slowing down. growth in the service sector slowing down. most importantly other economies around the world are really suffering badly. that is the backdrop to these numbers. we should be getting them right now. what have we got? steve: 136,000. a little better than last month. >> let me give the raw numbers. 136,000 jobs created in september. not bad, not great. but the unemployment rate went down i think to 3.5%. very interesting. had been 3.7. now it is 3.5.

that implies to me a lot of people came out of the retired arena, so to speak and came back into the labor force. do we have number on wages yet? that will be very, very important here. brian: in other words, on wages what are you looking for when it comes to wages? >> over 3% growth in wages over the past 12 months. we'll get that initial number. let's summarize what is going on here. 135,000 new jobs, unemployment rate down to 3.5%. that is a fully employed economy. have the risks of a recession gone up? not much. this is a pretty standard report. i don't think we're closer to a recession now than we were before this report was released. it is not that bad. bearing in mind that we got 7 million jobs going a begging at this moment. so the number of new jobs created is not that important in that context. ainsley: the person that retires but still wants to make a little bit of an income or stay busy

maybe gets a few hours a week? >> some of those people are coming back into the labor force t was a flood last month. i don't know what the number but they're coming back big time. steve: stuart, everyone is looking at federal reserve will they continue to reduce the rate for interest because the president would like to see that? >> the federal reserve is under great pressure to lower interest rates quickly. the investors expect the fed will lower interest rates this month a quarter point and again in december a quarter point. steve: with this number slightly below expectations does that ad to the case. >> what happens in september. brian: they are responding to headlines from impeachment to tariffs to manufacturing. when they see this number go below 145,000 projected how do you think the market will react? >> i don't think there will be an extreme reaction. i don't know that for sure. forecasting the stock market

performance is fool's game and i'm not going to do it but we have had a very volatile week up and down and down again. i don't expect a huge decline in the market. i will wait until what the futures are doing to make a firm decision. brian: we have a show do, can i bring up another topic? >> you better. brian: mark zuckerberg is unattack lately. he is very nervous about elizabeth warren winning the nomination for the presidency. listen what he said. i want to get your take. >> no one deserves to have that much money. that is not like, i don't -- i think if you do something that's good you, you get rewarded but i do think some of these, some of the wealth that can be aaccumulated is unreasonable. >> unreasonable. hmmm. i think billionaires need some defenders here. they are success stories. what is wrong with that. do we think, 10, 20, 30 bill is excessive? i'm sure some people do.

i regard it as a source of capital which you can invest for future growth and innovation. steve: capitalism is not on the rise in this country. if you watch the 2020 presidential candidate it is socialism instead. that is why it's a popular talking point. >> yes. steve: there are not as many billionaires as us down below them. >> i think elizabeth warren is the front-runner to get the democrat nomination. by and far the front-runner. she is a socialist. she went after mark zuckerberg. i got you in mind is the direct quote. wants to take his billions off him and split up facebook. brian: how much money has facebook made for shareholders? how many employees work for facebook? if a billionaire want to do that with their money, let alone the money they flat-out want to give away to places like newark, new jersey. i'm not defending facebook. a lot of things happen with the money t doesn't stay in your mattress. >> my point, money held by private individuals is put to.

better use than money confiscated by the government put to government use. it is far better in private hand. you have far more expansion, investment and innovation if money stays, capital stays in private hand. steve: they have all the money because some people are on facebook. "wall street journal" reporting right now, stock futures have turned higher. >> okay. there you go. brian: if something happens good with the chinese delegation as trade talks start again next week? >> chinese delegation is back next week. i think president trump will maintain a hard-line as he often says, we'll wait and see what happens. steve: he does indeed. ainsley: stuart, have a great weekend. >> okay. ainsley: jillian is behind you. she has some headlines. jillian: a murder suspect walks free for weeks after his ankle monitor is repossessed. the company who makes the monitor claims clint walker owed them $305 in fees. their contract is terminated with harris county police in texas.

steve: all right. a fifth parent charged in the college admissions school will be sentenced later today. a california man pleaded guilty to paying to boost his daughter's test scores so she could get into college as phony water polo recruit. molly line it side of the boston courtroom with a preview of today's attractions. reporter: good morning, steve. he is a unique among the parents that admitted guilt in the college admissions scandal according to prosecutors because he took both of routes available to cheat as part of this overall scandal. in other words prosecutors say he cheated on both test taking exam side of things as well as creating fake athletic profile with the aim of getting his

college into daughter. the wealthy vinter who own as number of wineries in napa, california, agreed to pay $50,000 to have his daughter's s.a.t. score inflated and another 50,000-dollars to have her recruited on the water polo team at university of southern california. he was arrested before she got into school. they are asking the judge to sentence him to 15 months of prison noting that he pulled his daughter into the fraud. writing in court documents he involved his daughter in both illicit schemes and told her to adopt shut your trap mentality about the crime. he was eager to pursue the exam scheme again changing only when he decided the recruitment scheme would be even better. court documents revealed the talented test taker paid by rick singer, the scheme's mastermind would fly around the country and fix scores helps his daughter during the exam. her father also instructed her to send a photo of herself

playing water polo and a short letter bragging about her athletic prowess. in a letter to the judge, he expresses remorse writing, i will use this cataclysmic event to work on myself and come back stronger. i will work harder than ever to improve the lives of those that i have harmed and at toned for my crimes that i can regain my dignity and respect of my family and friends again. it is worth noting it is hard to say what the variety of sentences could mean for the parent who chosen not to work out a plea deal with prosecutors at this point, those going to trial, including lori loughlin and her fashion designer husband. steve? steve: only the judge knows. thanks, molly. ainsley? ainsley: a gruesome discovery, more than 2,000 medically preserved feet tall remains discovered inside after house in illinois of a deceased abortion doctor who performed abortions

at clinics indiana where he lost his license in 2016. those remains have been transported back to indiana where the state's attorney general is now leading the investigation into the findings. joining us now with the latest is indiana attorney general curtis hill. good morning to you, curtis. thanks for being with us. >> good morning. thanks for having me. ainsley: for folks at home not familiar with this doctor's story, tell us what happened and how you found these remains. >> the doctor was as you noted a notorious abortionist in state of indiana for decades. he passed away recently last month. after he passed away his family members were cleaning up the garage and found this discovery, 2246 feet remains that had been stored away discarded in family residence. to their credit they contacted authorities in state of illinois right away. the information was reported. we heard about it here in indiana. had our suspicions. the indiana general assembly, several representatives of the

general assembly contacted me and we initiated a investigation because of our suspicion that these fetal remains came from the state of indiana. ainsley: hard to see the images, the boxes are pull out of a office you know what is inside. corresponding medical records were with each of these babies. were you able to contact the mothers or do you try not -- what is the law? do you have to contact the mom? >> well this is uncharted territory. if you think about it, this was, these are events, these abortions took place in the year 2000, 2001, and 2002. there are many different sensibilities of the women who participated in those abortions. we had a hotline set up for those who want to contact us to inquire about the remains and what goes next. but quite frankly there is going to be many who don't want to relive the pain and agony of these events. so we're not taking position where we're contacting anyone. we're putting a hotline out so

people can contact us. our basic course of action to develop a framework where we can bring the unborn children home. we've done that they're in the state of indiana now. we're looking through a process we can provide final arrangements with a level of dignity and respect that human remains deserve. ainsley: okay. thank you so much. curtis hill. if you want to learn more about it. there is fox news op-ed written by curtis talking about reactions from both sides, more about this story. thank you, sir. >> thank you. ainsley: you're welcome. coming up the made in america conference is officially underway. carley shimkus is there. we'll check back with her coming up next. ♪ ♪ (dramatic orchestra)
