a portion of expected testimony reads, quote, it has become painfully obvious that what we have now are two systems of justice, one for white americans and a different one for black americans. it is past time we revise the role of police to be peacekeepers and community partners. george floyd's funeral was held in houston, texas in a video address at the service, joe biden not to turn away from racism. house sharpton called out donald trump as did the niece of george floyd. >> the laws need to be changed, no more hate crimes please. someone said make america great again but when has america ever been great? >> back here in minneapolis fox 9 reports four police officer derek chauvin was in talks to plead guilty before his arrest but those negotiations fell through.

called to my attention but i'm not going to characterize it beyond that. >> you would not name names or give a timeline for releasing the findings but that even with the disruption of covid-19 the durham team has been aggressively moving forward intent on holding accountable anyone who committed a little violation and he deflected criticism for this motivated by politics saying this is about abuses of power noting the media's role as well. >> for the first time in american history police organizations and national security organizations were used to spy on a campaign, there was no basis for it and the media largely drove that. there's all kinds of sensational claims being made about the president that could have affected the election. >> this comes after the doj watchdog identified the fbi while taps and surveillance of members of the trump campaign as a senate judiciary committee is set to meet tomorrow about

sipping authorization to begin hearings into fisa abuses in across a hurricane investigation, you will find some very familiar. shannon: a foxbusiness alert, the nasdaq briefly hit 10,000 for the first time ever before closing at a recognized just below that mark, the take every index getting a boost from amazon and apple both closing record highs, the nasdaq expected to go over 10,000 again. >> for the first time ever and african-american will lead a us military branch. 4-star general charles brown unanimously confirmed by the senate as the next air force chief of staff. is a combat pilot who served in the air force for 36 years. donald trump nominated brown in march tweeting a historic day for america, excited to work even more closely with general

brown who is a patriot and a great leader. shannon: nascar's bubba wallace will -- drive a black lives matter car in virginia. wallace is the first full-time black driver to race in the nascar cup series since 1971. you can see on the right of the spring, he wore a shirt reading i can't breathe, you can watch him take the wheel it:00 eastern on fox sports one. >> that race won't have fans in the stands but nascar is allowing 1000 servicemembers to attend on sunday. they will be honorary guests in homestead miami speedway next weekend, 5000 fans will be allowed at talladega superspeedway, they must wear masks and social justice and i think you would agree with me nascar is rocking, golf as well, we need baseball and basketball to pick up the game soon. >> it is back-and-forth with baseball.

>> it is 10 minutes after the hour. a rash of violence in america's biggest cities as they call to defend police, 18 murders and 24 hours in chicago, 250% spike in homicides in la, enough talking, it is time for politicians on both sides to act. he joins us next. >> from the ivy league, the connection this harvard professor is believed to have to china that could land him years behind bars. we will tell you about it. guys, it's that time... and nothin's happenin'.

well now there's score!, from force factor, to rev your libido and maximize physical response. it's no wonder force factor is the #1 fastest-growing men's health brand at walmart. unleash your potential in the bedroom with score!. shannon: violent nights in major us cities, brooklyn, los angeles, chicago reporting spikes in shooting this anti-police sentiment reaches a boiling point. >> we stayed home restrictions posted for the summer, it sets the stage for more violence. former tucson police officer brandon tatum. what do these spikes tell you?

>> they are incredibly unfortunate and sad in my personal opinion seeing what is going on in chicago. these young people losing their lives. the person becomes to mind, what is happening in chicago is where is black lives matter? where the activists? the blue boxes, where is the outrage, george floyd had three funerals in these young people losing their lives don't get a t-shirt. it bothers me that it seems and it appears that their lives do not matter as much as someone who lost his life at the hands of police. this is a sign of inconsideration of a lot of activists and politicians and

also a sign that if you want to defund the police department or there is not enough police officers to act, these are the violent actions you will see continue. shannon: on that conversation point of defunding the police, a lot of talk about this the last few days. listen to what chad wolf had to say the other day. >> when we talk about defunding the police is absurd but most importantly dangerous. a core tenet of this country is about law and order, not chaos, crime and anarchy on the streets, provide more training and oversight and more leadership. >> overnight this is what joe biden has to say, quote, federal dollars should not go to departments that violate people's rights or turn to violence as a first resort, the better answer is to give police

department the resources they need to implement meaningful reforms. what do you think about that, some of these police department might need more training, might need more money and resources to be better themselves. on the other hand you have this talk about reform, what does it look like to you? >> it is incredibly ignorant for any politician to state police officers should be defunded at any point. it is unimaginable that you could have common sense and care about america, police reform looks like more funding. police need more training. as a former police officer i was on a swat team so i have a lot of adequate training but the average everyday police officer doesn't get enough training. we need force on force training, we need exposure to certain situations so when we go out into the public, the first time you get a combat of suspect is not the first time you've seen a scenario and you act in a way

that is not appropriate or what is best for the community so fund the police officers to give them adequate training, give them the support and encouragement to do better and show the public is behind the police officers and we will work with the ones who are doing what is right to make it better, that is what police reform looks like, not demonize the police department and removing funding which will cause complete chaos in our major cities. shannon: thank you for joining us, appreciate your insight. >> thanks for having me. >> 18 after the hour. it is quietly one of donald trump's biggest accomplishments, nearly 200 federal judges confirmed despite massive gridlock with senate democrats. >> the digital crisis networks of the record-setting delays and nearly destroyed the contest. that message live next.

shannon: welcome back. a harvard professor indicted for lying about ties the wuhan university, doctor charlie but was arrested on charges he did his involvement with the wuhan university program that recruits people with knowledge of foreign technology and intellectual property. they believe he was paid 50,$000 a month. he plans to fight the charges if convicted he could get five years in prison. dc national guard members test positive following mass protests. officials not releasing how many are infected but believe it is not a large number of cases, thousands of guard members were deployed to the nations capital to ensure peaceful protesting over george floyd's death, they were required to wear protective the commencement massive crowds made it difficult to social distance.

>> donald trump making history with his judicial appointments but he is also facing record-setting delays from senate democrats on his nominations and with confirmation classes and away even now democrats are digging in their heels. why political gridlock is nearly destroyed the process, chief counsel and policy director of the judicial crisis network, always great to have your insight on these topics. i don't want get too want it 4 am in the morning but breakdown what the senate democrats are doing to stall the president's nominees. >> one of the proxies we use to see how they are trying to drag their feet is called cloture vote, a vote that slows down the nominee when once upon a time you used to have particularly lower court nominees go through, people would have voice votes, all in favor and move through in a group, now they are forced to go through in a single file line, have a vote for each one,

time spent on dba, most of the time there wasn't a debate given to these people, the vast majority that are waiting now for votes have bipartisan support, going to be confirmed. at a time when the senate has so much on its plated should be focusing on in the country it is shameful to have time being wasted on what should be routine nominations. todd: let's look at the delays donald trump has suffered through, these numbers are pretty out there, 314 procedural delays for donald trump compared to obama, bush and clinton, you see a lot more, now let's get to the judges, heritage foundation says there are 78 vacancies in the federal courts, mitch mcconnell vowing to leave no vacancy behind. amid covid-19, summer vacation, summer recess and all that stuff and election season which is

just getting started, is that without by mitch mcconnell realistic? >> i think he knows how to getting through the senate better than anyone i know it has a plan to move through these nominees. many have bipartisan support. those numbers belie the fact that trump outstrips obama, more cloture votes than all other previous presidents combined and that is just in one term. imagine if this -- really surprising. i do think if mcconnell says he will get them through no vacancy left behind, i hope he will be able to do so because you have men and women waiting for more than a year at this point for their confirmation votes, that's not how we should treat our public servants. >> it is unbelievable these individuals express their desire to be part of this position, to serve their government in these things get drawn out and drawn out. we will have you back through the course of the next couple months to give us an update where we stand with the

judgeships. >> 25 after the hour, first the world health organization said this about spreading the coronavirus. >> asymptomatic cases, contacts and not finding secondary transmission, very rare. >> now they are clarifying those comments, walking them back a bit with a new explanation and the real story behind asymptomatic cases next.

>> welcome back. the husband of lori val oh is doing court today, police arresting chad near his idaho home after finding human remains in his backyard to investigate is performing an autopsy to determine if jj and kylie who have been missing since september. todd: the judiciary committee holding a hearing on police brutality, several witnesses will be present including george

floyd's brother. >> new jersey's governor nothing he's lifting the state's stay-at-home order, governor of the lifting restrictions on churches and religious gatherings. todd: the state easing restrictions as the world health organization walks back its comments claiming a systematic spread of coronavirus is very rare. jillian: more as the organization clarifies that the marks on the virus. >> reporter: good morning. after claiming a symptomatic carriers of covid-19 are not likely to spread the disease the world health organization updated their comments saying those that are not displaying symptoms could be spreading the disease up to 40% of those people according to some studies. the latest of a series of missteps by the world health organization, the sum by the

group's infectious disease epidemiologist who added their been some misunderstandings about her initial comments on monday and she was only referring to a set of sub studies. to a more pressing issue during the coronavirus outbreak at least two countries a record one day increase of covid-19 cases indicating the pandemic is far from over. the united nations is mourning world food shortages put 50 million at risk of extreme poverty. there was a dire warning yesterday that 820 million people are currently hungry. >> the covid-19 pandemic is making things worse unless immediate action is taken it is increasingly clear there is an impending food emergency that could have long-term impacts on hundreds of millions of children and adults. >> reporter: the number of headlines to look at during the

covid-19 outbreak but this is one that needs international attention. millions of people could die of the international community doesn't act in the coming days, weeks and months. jillian: with the world health organization walking back comments on a systematic cases, what is the real story? rob: family physician doctor jennifer connell. let's look the walk back one more time and get your response. take a listen. >> still appears to be rare, a systematic individuals transmit on word. we do know some people who are a symptomatic, some people who don't have symptoms can transmit the virus. i wasn't stating a policy of who or anything like that but trying to articulate what we know. todd: you have to guide your patients with his guidance from the who. how do you make sense of this? >> i have to be honest, when i heard the comments that a

systematic transmission was very rare i was surprised like the rest of the world. i listened to the entire press conference where the statements were clarified and this is what i gather from what she said through the whole thing and what i am telling my patients. a systematic covid-19 infection is still happening. let's not think it doesn't. a systematic infection is this idea that you have covid-19 but may not know it because you don't have symptoms. a systematic transmission, the ability to spread covid-19 when you're a symptomatic we know still happens. one of the things that was in question. the researcher when she clarified her comments later on what she said was when she said the comments a sentiment transmission is very rare i was referring to a small subset of studies and other data they had. said it is a misunderstanding that a systematic transmission is rare.

if i can make one more comment, i know people are saying how is a symptomatic transmission very rare when there are people telling us 30 percent-40% of a systematic infections were able to transmit? what she said about that is the data you look at, she was looking at a small subset of studies that showed very rare transmission from a symptomatic folks whereas those that suggest and 30-40% transmission were done by modeling so the bottom line if the numbers are confusing, nothing has changed in terms of a systematic infection and transmission. they still happen, we still need to where our masks and will prevent things we had been doing. the issue is we don't know how much a systematic transmission is happening because it needs to be further studied. i hope that is helpful.

jillian: forgive me if i should know this but i feel like there has been a lot of information back and forth. how is a systematic transmission happening? someone with symptoms coughing and sneezing and this and that, one can assume if someone near you is coughing, back away from them but how is it happening a systematically then? >> your question is a wonderful question, a question a lot of my patients are wondering, excellent question. this is how we think a systematic spread happens because you are right, you are not talking about that, things like heavy breathing, someone going for a run or exercising, panting, breathing hard without a mask, forced expiration. particles are expunged that way. also things like singing, that is way particles are expunged from our nose or mouth or forceful talking, not just those ways but say somebody is

asymptomatic but infected with covid-19 and touch their nose or mouth or eyes and touch a surface that someone else and comes behind and touches after them. that is the way the virus can be transmitted. that is an excellent question, ways we think a systematic people can transmit the virus. >> there are still a lot of questions. thank you for joining us with that information and clearing it up for us. i was waiting to see if todd was going to say anything. how are you? todd: we don't have the delay. we weren't prepared for it. is janice prepared to give us the forecast of a lifetime? >> janice: you know i am. good to see you. we've been talking about the storm cristobal. it has moved over louisiana but

we are still dealing with the remnants of the storm, it is what we call post-tropical. it has characteristics of a tropical storm and everyday low pressure center but it has been infused or just up with a cold front from the west and that is why it has strengthened. wents 35 miles per hour sustained, we should see gusts 40-50 with this, several tornado reports from the midwest and northern plains, illinois, and wisconsin, many wind reports as well so the storm is still packing a punch, it is stronger now that we've had that cold front moved through and we will see not only the heavy rainfall with this, tropical downpours for some of these areas but very strong winds and even severe storms, future radar, some of that energy will come towards the northeast over the next 6 to 12 hours and look at the severe threat today, moderate risk over

portions of the midwest, great lakes, michigan in towards ohio and indiana, we could see strong winds and tornado reports, not done with this cristobal storm yet. tomorrow it will lift towards canada. todd: thanks. jillian: the nypd officer seen in this video showing a protester to the ground is arrested. he faces assault charges following this altercation with a protester, multiple seizures and a concussion in the incident, prosecutors allege the officer, heard before the show. he was released without bail. todd: iran building a fake aircraft carrier for possible fire drill, tensions rise with the us, the apparent mockup resembling a carrier used by the

39.6%, a familiar number 2 a lot of people imposing a 50% tax, and 28%, increasing federal minimum wage to $15 and raise tax, and why would that put us into a depression. >> the green new deal regulations. the economy recovered from the crash starting to stabilize. putting on tariffs and choked off recovery, the same happened, an array of things he is doing, regulations with respect to energy would greatly increase

the cost on american business. the economy of february 1st was larger than the economy, business startups needed to be helped and biden wants to raise taxes, and hurt by capital gains hike, small business people, that is who he is targeting so it would be a huge mistake to take this fledgling recovery that is still tentative and in the fall, a lot of tax hikes around the country because they went several months with lower tax income or tax receipts, those tax hikes on top of biden's tax hikes would joke of the recovery and that is why we wrote this article. jillian: it has been a wild ride the last few months, let's look

at the bear market low, compared to yesterday's closing you see the change with the dow up 47% for march 20 third 2 yesterday, the nasdaq, 45% increase, the s&p of 43% increase. i took a look at my 401(k) yesterday, rebounded from everything it lost. a lot of people talking about it with a number of people yesterday. the question, a lot of people have spoken about what we expect to see with the economy. done of its too early to say we are in this but if the trend continues was will mean for the president come november? >> the market is not the economy. the market is recovering because more people save in the market than they do in a bank doesn't give you any interest, the money is in the market, the american markets are the best place to be because we will be the first comeback. that is why the markets look better than the economy as a

whole. no question the economy will start comeback. the question is how the tax hikes will affect the economy but if you look at a zogby poll with the same amount of republicans and democrats, the difference between biden and trump, as the economy improves, that will help trump and biden's tax increases will look bad because quite frankly they are the worst prescription possible for what ails our economy. jillian: thank you for joining us, we appreciate it. a group of men fishing in ocean city maryland could not believe what they cost on camera. take a look at this.
