but will the widespread protests impact the big apple's big plans? todd: "fox & friends first" continues right now. ♪ todd: good morning, you are watching "fox & friends first" on this monday morning, i'm rob schmitt. jillian: i'm jillian mele. let's get to this fox news alert. minneapolis city council promising to disband the city's police department. the city's mayor is rejecting the new push overnight. rob: matt finn is live in minneapolis as the first officer charged in george floyd's murder will face a judge today. matt. >> reporter: rob and gillian, it was two weeks ago today that george floyd was killed in minneapolis. immediately afterwards several city council members banded together and insisted they will disband the police department. city council members now say they have a veto-proof majority

and will move forward with dismantling the minneapolis police department. council members say nine out of 13 members support dismantling police and they will move forward with intermediate steps to policy and budget decisions to end what they call a toxic relationship with their police department. >> and we're going to create a fear-free future where every life is truly protected and respected. i encourage all of our of officers who are still on duty to continue to do your work with compassion, with respect and love, we're going to need every single human to be a part of this project. >> reporter: minneapolis city council members admit they don't have the answers about what a police-free future looks like. they have said they want to defund police and invest in things like juvenile crime prevention programs and rely more on of social workers and calling 311 versus 911. now, minneapolis mayor jacob frey does not support dismantling the police

department and was publicly booed at a massive rally over the weekend for standing his ground on his decision not to defund police. >> [crowd noises] >> asking whether i'm for massive structural reform to revise a structurally racist system, the answer is yes. if you're asking whether i will do everything possible to push back on inherent inequities that are built into the architecture, the answer is yes. >> reporter: derek chauvin is charged with second degree murder in the death of george floyd and is set to make his first appearance in court in minneapolis today and in houston texas today there is a public memorial for george floyd and vice president joe biden is scheduled to travel there to meet with the george floyd family. rob, jillian. jillian: thank you, matt. rob: another fox news alert, protests in new york city remaining mostly peaceful as the

city-wide curfew ends. mayor bill de blasio now promising to cut funding for the nypd and reinvest that money in youth services. >> i want people to understand that we are committed to shifting resources to ensure that the focus is on our young people. and i also will affirm while doing that we will only do it in a way that we are certain continues to ensure that the city will be safe. rob: the big thing here that we don't know is no of word on how much of the nypd's budget is going to be shifted, could be a very small amount. we don't know. the budget right now stands at about $6 billion. jillian: the man accused of killing a retired st. louis police captain outside of a pawn shop is now in custody. 24-year-old steven cannon charged with murder overnight, the second suspect was also arrested and charged with burglary. police say cannon was stealing tvs from a shop as david dorn arrived.

he shot and killed dorn from a street corner. throb: today, the president set to hold a roundtable with law enforcement officials following a weekend of protests in the nation's capital. jillian: doug luzader is live in washington as democrats prepare to reveal a sweeping police reform bill. >> reporter: after observing several minutes of silence today, in honor of those who have been killed by police officers, house democrats are going to introduce what they're calling the justice and policing act and this would represent a pretty radical change in police tactics and some legal protections that police officers now enjoy. here's some of the bullet points. it would make it easier to prosecute police officers by changing the standard of misconduct from willfulness to recklessness. there would be a national police misconduct registry, so-called no knock warrants would be banned in drug cases. there would be an independent investigation process to look

into allegations of misconduct and choke holds would be banned. >> it's time for police culture in many departments to change and we believe that the legislation will make a major step forward in that direction. >> reporter: the attorney general, though, wonders whether all of this will go too far. >> i think we have to be careful about automatically assuming that the actions of an individual necessarily mean that the organization is rotten. all organizations have people who engage in misconduct and you sometimes have to be careful as to when you ascribe that to the whole organization and when it really is some errant member who isn't following the rules. >> reporter: as protesters continued to take to the streets in washington and around the country we hear more and more cries to defund or dismantle

police departments. >> what a ridiculous idea. it's not an idea whose time has come. it should never come. the absolute nation requires law and order. >> reporter: the president joined that argument on twitter, writing sleep owe joe biden and the radical left democrats want to defund the police. i want great and well-paid law enforcement. i want law and order. now, as far as the proposed legislation is concerned, we don't know a timeline yet to get that moving through congress. we do know that on wednesday the brother of george floyd whose death obviously touched off all of these protests is set to testify before the house judiciary committee. rob and jillian. rob: doug, thank you. jillian: the department of justice officially requests to speak with england's prince andrew over his ties to jeffrey epstein. reports say federal prosecutors in new york issued a type of subpoena to the british government. prince andrew denied having

sexual relations with a woman trafficked by epstein after she claims they did. the doj formally told the u.k. the duke of york is caught up in a criminal probe for the first time. rob: senator tom cotton blasting the new york times after its editorial page director was forced to quit. james bennett faced public and internal backlash after it was revealed he didn't read tom cotton's op ed before publishing. cotton fired back on twitter, this is false, and offensive. i called for using military force as a backup only if police are overwhelmed to stop riots, not to be used against protesters. if the new york times has any decency left, they should retract this smear. the senator will join "fox & friends" this morning in the 8:00 hour. watch out for that. jillian: overnight, cristobal pushing its way across louisiana, packing strong winds and rain.

rob: the now tropical depression flooding parts of the gulf coast, sparking several reported tornadoes across alabama and florida as well. alex hogan joins us live from new orleans as flooding threatens that area. >> reporter: rob, jillian, it really feels like the calm after the storm as you mentioned, this is now a tropical depression. but it did bring in about 12 inches of rain in some areas and also brought more severe weather in other parts, like in florida where a tornado touched down. there was damage but no reports of injuries. the storm also caused mud slides in mexico because of flooding. floodwaters from heavy rain and storm surge swamped parts of mississippi, louisiana, as cristobal hit mainland by 5:00 pam on sunday. a -- 5:00 p.m. on sunday. president trump issued an emergency declaration for the state of louisiana as the governor asked residents in the state to stay alert. some businesses protected store fronts with sandbags in the

streets of the french quarter which was mostly boarded up because of the pandemic. after hurricanes like katrina in 2005 or isaac in 2012 people say they know how quickly the storms can change. >> we'll take these any day. definitely don't want anything major like a katrina or a category 1 or 2. anything like that. a tropical storm is easy. >> from out here, you would think it's kind of bad. from my house, about a mile, nothing. >> reporter: cristobal will move through arkansas before passing through missouri early tomorrow and it is the third named storm, the hurricane season, which started just eight days ago, usually the first -- or the third named storm isn't until on average august 13th so experts say this is an indication of what we can expect this hurricane season. but again, here it is calm. those waters are returning to normal. so an easy start to this

morning. rob, jillian. jillian: alex hogan live for us. thanks, alex. rob: the minneapolis city council looking to overrule the mayor and disband the city's police department. jillian: this as mayor bill de blasio and other cities look to defund the police. our next guest is a former nypd detective who says the moves are purely political. he joins us live. a lot of folks ask me why their dishwasher doesn't get everything clean. i tell them, it may be your detergent...

>> this council is going to dismantle this police department. >> we should and can abolish our current minneapolis police system. >> our commitment is to end our city's toxic relationship with the minneapolis police department, to end policing as we know it. rob: the minneapolis city council pushing forward to disband their police department as calls to defund departments take hold across the country. jillian: what impact could this drastic move have on policing in

the nation's largest cities. here to weigh is in oscar odem. thank you for joining us. good to see you. >> thank you. how are you. jillian: good, thank you. who do you think this is going to impact the most? >> the citizens, they're going to get impacted the most. let me thank the women and men in blue, nypd and officers all over the country for what they do, for keeping us safe, making sure we're squared away. the word defunding has a negative connotation attached to it. let's make sure the decisions are evidence based and data driven and not politically motivated and not used as a scapegoat. they're trying to use law enforcement as a scapegoat for their lack of resources or for state governments not appropriately funding programs such as mental health issues, for youth issues and housing issues. what they're trying to do because it's a political hot table or hot button or making them sound good so, therefore,

they're going to place these things on law enforcement and put the blame on us for the lack of things that they have been doing the entire time. rob: the mayor of minneapolis here, let's read a statement from him. i'll work relentlessly with the chief and alongside the community toward deep structural reform and addressing systemic racism in police culture, we're ready to dig in and enact more community led public safety strategies on behalf of the city but i do not support abolishing the minneapolis police department. this is a guy who went to a memorial for george floyd, dropped down on one knee and cried in front of the casket, he still does not think you should get rid of the police department. what does that tell you about how fringe the idea is? heather.>> first of all, it's o get rid of law enforcement. we are the gate keepers of society. we are solving murders, burglaries, and who is going to do it if they're not there? ghost busters?

the community that will be the hurt the most are those that are disen franchised and don't have these type of services in which the government provides for the different community. by getting rid of the police department, once again, this is a scapegoat type of activity, a hot potato, to pass it onto somebody else and to get rid of it, their own responsibilities they're shirking. jillian: about seven or eight years ago the police department of camden, new jersey was, quote, unquote disbanded. they started a county wide community based policing where they rehired some of the police officers back, trained them in a different way. they walked the beat, got to know their communities, it was a different type of environment. they undergo bias training, have a revamped policy and in less than 10 years they say the department went from more than 60 excessive force complaints down to three, dropped the crime record to the lowest in 50 years.

is something like that a conversation that perhaps wouldn't work for every city, obviously, probably not really big cities but could some certain cities have a conversation where you think something like that might work for them? >> right. you can always have those type of conversations. and also that training can also be instituted in all police departments. but what happened is now because it seems like it's an us versus them type of mentality that's taken place now and that's not it. you see all over the country now police officers bowing down, they're praying with people and because one person did something, now they're painting a broad brush. if you look at it, if that was the case when one person did a robbery or a murder, then we say all society is bad. i think they're doing the same thing. we understand that there's training issues that need to be addressed. of course police officers want to improve. we want to evolve. we want to improve. we want to do things better. we want to continue to serve the communities better and come up with new technologies, new ways to address these issues.

we're not pushing back on that. we're saying let's do it. if you identify something, let's do it. but don't make us the scapegoat when there's an issue and when you lack to provide something or do something and just say you know what, now we're going to get rid of you. you want to get rid of something, talk about community relations, you have us out there writing summonses. let us stop writing summonses, we try to build relationships with the community and you have us writing summons for disen franchised communities. they can't pay the particular. -- ticket. why do you have us doing that? let us d someone else do it. rob: let's see how this turns out. thank you so much for your time. >> thank you very much. have a great day and be safe. jillian: thank you. second amendment defender taking aim at a social media giant. >> i have a message for antifa terrorists. stay the hell out of northwest georgia. jillian: facebook pulled this

we appreciate it. tell us why you feel this way, why you feel like you're being censored. >> we've seen it time after time again where conservative americans put their thoughts, their feelings and their expressions and their beliefs on social media platforms like facebook and twitter but yet our posts get deleted and we get censored. when we watched antifa tea terre america, we saw riots, businesses burned, churches burned, you know, looted, everyday americans, innocent americans attacked by these criminals and these thugs in the streets night after night after night, we started hearing rumors that antifa was going to be coming to our community and we have the right to defend our self. i'm a legal gun owner. i have a georgia weapon's license. i'm a business owner. i'm a wife and mom. and i have every right to stand there and say do not come and burn our churches, loot our

businesses, and destroy our homes. we have a right to defend ourselves and we have freedom of speech to say so. rob: facebook response to this, we removed this ad which advocates the use of deadly weapons against a clearly defined group of people for violating our policies against inciting violence. last night i went to the facebook page for antifa international. and i found a video that essentially shows them basically bragging about how they use physical violence to fight whatever they consider to be facism. that video still stands this morning on facebook. what do you make of that? >> i'd say facebook is defending terrorists. they're calling this group of people and saying i'm inciting violence against them, yet that group of people are terrorists. they're communist basement dwellers who have come out and poured gasoline on a fire and basically hijacked protests and turned it into complete chaos and anarchy in the streets of

america and facebook is defending them. they're not allowing us everyday americans to defend ourselves. they're choosing the side of anarchists and terrorists. rob: bill barr says he has proof that antifa is behind some of the hijacking and protests and the mayhem in the country about a week ago. let's talk about twitter for a second. we'll broaden it out to basic tech bias. tbiter got -- twitter got into hot water for calling a president trump tweet glorifying violence, this tweet violates our policies regarding the galorglorifying violence and thk is could inspire similar actions today. twitter as we flip over to this site is full of nonsense. yet they only go after the president. what do you make of that? >> i think that we see facebook and twitter, they're both the same. you know, they're so leftist in their beliefs and the leftists

have become the thought police, basically declare themselves god and judge us for our of thoughts and it's completely wrong. as the leading candidate in my republican race, and my primary election is tomorrow, i'm going to work very hard on big tech censorship and stopping it because you can't censor our speech. we have the freedom of speech. we have the right to say our views and the right to stand up for our president, the right to defend our homes and we can call criminals, people that hurt people, attack people, we can call them thugs and president trump was correct in doing so. rob: marjorie taylor green running for congress in northern georgia. thank you so much. we appreciate it. >> thank you. jillian: democrats pushing a police reform ban. is this what we need? does it take it too far? gop strategist joseph pinion an democratic political analyst

rob: overnight, tropical depression cristobal moving across the gulf coast, president trump set to make an emergency declaration in the state of louisiana. heavy rains, strong winds reaching from florida to louisiana. jillian: flooded streets turning into rivers, the storm sparking a tornado off the alabama coast. senior meteorologist janice dean is live with the latest on the track of the storm. good morning, janice. >> good morning to you both. good morning to everyone. yes, this was a big storm in terms of how large it was and how many states felt the wrath of cristobal, now you a depression, as of the 5:00 a.m. advisory. you can see the last 24 hours, the center of the storm crossing over louisiana. the heavy rain bands affecting parts of florida, mississippi, alabama, into georgia. now we've got a tropical

depression. this storm is actually going to strengthen as it moves across the ohio valley and interacts with a very strong cold front. so even though it's a depression and is weakening now, as it interacts with the cold front it's actually going to strengthen to a very, very strong area of low pressure. so there is the latest track as of of 5:00 a.m., depression. but watch as we go into tuesday and wednesday, see up towards the great lakes, up to 35-mile-an-hour sustained winds with gusts stronger than that. this is a storm we're going to be watching well into tuesday and wednesday, not only the tropical storm effects but heavy rainfall in its path, some areas could get an easy 2 to 4 inches of heavy rainfall. there is the latest in the flash flood watches and warnings, flash flood warnings in effect for parts of mississippi and alabama and the florida panhandle, where we could see upwards of 2 to 3 inches in a short period of time. the other big story is the heat across the midwest and over the

next couple of days still watching the results of this storm as it interacts with a very strong cold front. so we'll be talking about the remnants of the storm well into tomorrow and wednesday as well. all right, rob and jillian. good to see you. happy monday. back to you. rob: thanks, janice. turning to a fox news alert, the ex minneapolis cop caught on camera kneeling on george floyd's death returning to court today. derek chauvin is one of four officers arrested for the memorial day weekend death. the fallout over floyd's death hit a new level in minneapolis with the city council promising to disband the city's police department. >> our commitment is to end our city's toxic relationship with the minneapolis police department, to end policing as we know it, and to recreate systems of public safety that actually keep us safe. rob: mayor jacob frey pushed

back on this plan, saying he does not support abolishing the police department. frey was booed right out of a protest saturday after he refused to make a similar pledge. he was put right on the spot and then they threw him out, the mayor of minneapolis. in new york, calls for bill de blasio to resign are growing over his promise to cut some portion of funding for the nypd. >> we will be moving funding from the nypd to youth initiatives and social services. i want people to understand that we are committed to shifting resources, to ensure that the focus is on our young people. rob: protests in the city did remain peaceful overnight as marchers took to the streets as the curfew was finally lifted. jillian: in just hours, democrats will unveil a sweeping police reform bill following mounting calls to make changes to law enforcement training and accountability.

>> we must deal with law enforcement reform. >> and what we have to do as a nation is hold police accountable and come together and create legislation that will support initiatives like that. >> and with the legislation, with accountability and with the transparency and the emphasis on training, we believe that we'll be able to address those type of situations. jillian: here's the question, are these the reforms we need? will this go too far? joining me live to debate is republican strategist joseph pinion and democratic political analyst kelly hineman. good to see you both. let's take a look at the highlights of the justice and policing act of 2020, this includes changing the statute to create a national police conduct registry and end no knock warrants in drug cases, create independent investigation process into misconduct and ban choke holds. kelly, what do you think of

this? >> i think this is a great effort. we are living in a time, we are in a crisis. what happened to george floyd is horrific. here is a man that was handcuffed and was staying i can't breathe. there needs to be change, there needs to be reform and the police need be held accountable for their actions and one way to do this is by having this legislation and i think it's a great step by the democrats. they are listening to the people. the american people that want change and going to make a difference and absolutely support it. jillian: joseph, when you look at that list there, that's the highlights of it, where do you think there's going to be an issue amongst different party lines here? >> well, look, i mean, i don't think this should be a partisan issue. i think if we are as republicans say that we are the party of personal accountability, the party that says we should be free from a tyrannical government, agents of the government should be held

accountable for misconduct. we have to understand the tools we provide our police officers are part of the resources that allow us to stay safe. the issue is not necessarily a no knock warrant, the issue is the abuse of no knock warrants. if we recognize that's the case when it comes to somebody like paul manafort, we should surely understand the deep impact that could have on everyday people that don't have that type of press exposure. jillian: looking at the list, do you think that's going to be bipartisan that this will pass and that as it is right now? >> look, i think there's obviously going to be pushback. i mean, certainly from the standpoint of you don't want to have police officers who feel as if they've been handcuffed, they can't go out there and properly do their job. i think there's certainly going to be pushback on some of those items. i think there should be a way for us to find common ground to make sure that people feel safe. jillian: i think a lot of people agree with that at this point, kelly. this should be bipartisan, right, we should be able to come to an agreement on the best way to move forward.

>> absolutely. as a nation, we should come together and unite and i think that's really important, a that we have support on both sides of the aisle and make a difference and make a change for our country, for the better of our country, absolutely. that would be wonderful. jillian: one of george floyd's brothers is set to testify at the first congressional hearing on police violence on wednesday. you know, what do you guys think he's going to say? what do you want to hear from him? what do you think the message is going to be? kelly, i'll start with you. >> you know, i think the message is there's definitely going to be some kind of reform and there needs to be a change in our society. and also to hear from his story, to lose someone, you know, it's important -- we've shown as our nation that we have empathy and we have understanding for people that have been harmed by the police and i think that he's going to convey that message and we need to discuss this and make change for the better for the future and our future generations as well. jillian: joseph? >> yeah, i mean, i think the reality is that it's unfortunate

that it falls to the brother of the slain george floyd to tell a nation of rioters to go home or to remind those people still on the fence the true cost of losing someone that you love. so i think overall what we're going to hear is the clarion call for change that allows people to feel safe in their homes and i think more so than that, it's an opportunity for us as a nation to truly come together and not lean into some of the division we're hearing from democrats, which really calls for us to wholesale, reimagine police in a way that actually may make people more vulnerable than they are today. jillian: joseph, kelly, thank you both for joining us. we appreciate it. >> thank you so much. >> thank you. jillian: and we'll be right back.

jillian: welcome back. china is definnedding its response to the coronavirus, the country saying it wasted no

time sharing information. gordon chang joined us earlier and said it's part of their malicious disinformation campaign. >> china's fabrications have become more obvious. they have become in a way more pepervasive. this is just continuing day after day after day. jillian: the associated press found china's government labs waited at least a week before releasing the genetic map of the virus. rob: the fda warning some n95 masks made from china should not be reused. the agency says after further testing some of the respirators may vary in design and performance. the fda recently loosened rules over the masks amid a shortage in the pandemic. new york city is beginning the process of reopening today. jillian: todd piro joins us with the phase one plan. good morning, todd. >> reporter: good morning, rob and jillian. i know this is news you guys are thrilled to hear. the big apple back open for

business. in new york city's phase one retail will be limited to curbside, in-store or drop-off. but construction, manufacturing, and wholesale trade as well as agriculture, fores forestry, fig and hunting can resume. and 95% of full subway services will resume as well. the number of new coronavirus cases dropped to 781, the lowest since march. however, there is concern about a possible uptick in cases after thousands of people hit the streets to protest the death of george floyd. the governor sounding off. >> we are concerned that those protests may have increased the spread of the virus. we're going to do 35,000 tests per day, just in new york city. if you were at a protest, i understand your point, i'm with you. we also have the situation with the coronavirus, act responsibly, get aes a test.

>> reporter: seven other states lifting restrictions today. in delaware, hair salons and barber shops and tattoo parlors can reopen at 30% capacity. massachusetts will allow outdoor seating at restaurants starting today. michigan will allow both inside and outside seating with capacity limits. guys, back to you. jillian: todd, thank you. rob: 45 minutes after the hour. let's check in with steve doocy see what's coming up on "fox & friends." >> thank you very much. good morning to you. coming up on this monday, can you believe it's already june 8th? where did may go? where did april go? rob: half over. >> anyway. i know it. holy cow. we're a couple hours from democrats unveiling their police reform legislation on capitol hill. is this the right response to the nationwide protests? we'll talk to house minority whip steve scalise who is down in new orleans on this monday. also, senator tom cotton caught up in a dispute with the new york times after they published

jillian: good morning. back with with a fox business
