tv Bill Hemmer Reports FOX News June 26, 2020 12:00pm-1:00pm PDT
12:00 pm
congratulations. >> i would love to. thank you so much. thanks, good-bye. >> dana: and thank you for joining us, i'm dana perino. i will see you on "the five," that will be a good time, tgif. here's trace gallagher. ♪ >> trace: dana, thank you. i'm trace gallagher in for bill hemmer. no weekend rush for bar owners in texas after republican governor greg abbott clamped down to drive down new coronavirus cases. he says it's clear that packed bars are driving a spike in cases they are. it's one of at least six states where governors are hitting paws on reopening. to try to understand why cases are surging. and today we heard from members of the coronavirus task force on all of this. vice president mike pence it says the of hospitalizations and deaths shows we've made strides and that cases are stabilizing in 34 states and rising and 16 others. >> we believe we've made
12:01 pm
progress but as we are reminded as we see cases arising across the south, that we still have work to do. >> dana: more on that in a moment but let's begin with casey stegall reporting live frm dallas. casey? >> good to see you. in addition to bars across the state of texas being closed down, the governor of texas rolling back restrictions when it comes to dining restaurants. those that start on monday. under the current phase every opening in the state, a restaurant could hold 75% capacity. that number is now going back down to 50%. elective surgeries have been put on hold, too, but that is not a statewide mandate, that's only in texas' largest cities where covid infections are the worst. dallas, austin, houston, following a record-breaking number of new patients just as we create health officials in
12:02 pm
harris county, texas, where houston is located sounding the alarm, telling people to stay at home, warning that bed capacity could be maxed out in a week or three weeks. listen. >> if we do not act now we will be at the point of them returned and we folks to do what they did it two months ago. >> no more booze, as you heard, and florida bars as well for the time being, today that state agency regulating those businesses immediately suspending on-site alcohol consumption, largely in a response to a growing number of young people becoming infected there. today florida clocks nearly 9,000 new cases in just a 24-hour period and that is a new record high. over in arizona, the governor their joins of a growing list of states that have now temporarily suspended the reopening process. while that states overall positivity testing rate has fallen from 20% to about 9% this
12:03 pm
week, icu bed capacity is still at 88% so that has a lot of people concerned. health officials are urging people to stay home in arizona, trace, but there are no reopening plans at least for this point being planned on rollback. like we have here in texas today. back to you. >> trace: live in dallas, thank you. let's bring in a vaccine scientist and professor at baylor college of medicine. two steps forward, one step back. the coronavirus task force today saying look, we are on the right path, the numbers are good, the charts are good and then you have arizona and texas seeing these three tremendous bikes, what do you make of this? >> it's a bit heartbreaking, trace. thanks for having me, we are seeing this very steep acceleration in the number of cases in the major metropolitan areas of texas. here in houston we are seeing a really steep rise, almost a
12:04 pm
vertical rise with some projections saying we could be at up to 4,000 cases a day here in houston and it's not just a matter of increased testing, we are seeing an uptick in hospitalizations and an increase in icu admission so we are very concerned, we are seeing the same thing in dallas, san antonio, phoenix. it looks like the big metropolitan areas across the southwest have seen this very steep resurgence. we are trying to understand why but in the meantime we have to do something, business as usual is not going to stop that acceleration so we've got to now take steps to start dialing things back and exactly how extensive that dial back is, what areas we focus on, it looks like we are generally leading to the local health authorities. who have a better on the ground sense. >> trace: it's interesting because earlier we spoke with the lieutenant governor dan patrick in your state, and he was saying look, there's a lot
12:05 pm
of information coming out for the hospitals, arising a little bit but not as everybody says, and i want to read this because this is from the governor when he kind of dial back the whole bars and restaurants thing saying "at this time it is clear that the rise in case it is largely driven by certain types of activities including congregating in bars, the actions in this executive order are essential to our mission to swiftly contain this virus and protect public health. the question everybody is asking is yes, young people are affected, are they coming from boris? did they know this is coming from bars or is this a willy-nilly, shut the bars and back off the restaurants until we really figure out what's going on? >> it's a great question and i'm asking the same thing, i haven't seen direct evidence presented that it's really young people in bars, i'm sure that's a component of it. we are talking 20% of the problem, 50% of the problem, 80% of the problem. the other thing we are seeing is
12:06 pm
a big rise in our low income neighborhood where it's harder to do social distancing on the heartbreaking part of this in terms of this dial back his those are the ones i worry about especially because many of those individuals are not working from home, they can't work remotely, they have to physically be in the workplace. in order to support their families and that for me is one of the most heartbreaking aspects of asking people to dial back. >> trace: we talked about the coronavirus task force earlier, i want to play you a sound bite from dr. deborah birx and get your response on the other side, watch. >> we believe everybody is susceptible to infection but we know infection leads to a spectrum of disease and we have much better details about who is vulnerable and why they are vulnerable and as the vice president said at one time, we are diagnosing people in the icu after they came into the emergency room. thanks to the millennials who have been heating our guidance,
12:07 pm
they have been coming forward and getting testing. >> trace: interesting, she saying look, obesity, regardless of your age is an underlying factor and so is diabetes. you don't know if they have underlying conditions and they can be at risk as well, doctor. >> yeah, the cdc came out with a document, their regular publication a while back that found up to a quarter of the hospitalized patients are young people between the ages of 20 and 44. anecdotally from colleagues i'm hearing the high rates of obesity in those individuals and underlying conditions but we are in such a steep learning curve about this virus. for me one of the really frightening aspects is all the clotting disorders we are seei seeing, coronary artery thrombosis, strokes, something that we didn't have a sense of it as much when we were hearing about this in china and europe.
12:08 pm
we have new antibody therapies, we are rapidly accelerating treatments and that's going to make a big difference as well. >> i just want to know if you are encouraged by the fact that the death rate has gone way down and it really is significantly down from a month, month and a half ago. ten seconds. >> what i'm worried about is if there is going to be an acceleration of deaths from the recent new cases in the american southwest, we won't know for two or three weeks. that's what we have to hold our breath and see what happens. >> trace: good insight, good information. thank you, we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> trace: the house passing democrats sweeping police reform bill but it's expected to face an uphill battle in the senate after lawmakers failed to advance a g.o.p. proposal. we are now learning president trump is expected to sign an executive order to protect federal statues and monuments ray let's bring in
12:09 pm
republican congressman from ohio jim jordan. the house judiciary committee ranking member and the idea is that you had three members of your party including will hurd, the only african-american in the republican party where you're saying hey, he voted for this because he thought this was not the best bill but at least it was a way to hold the police accountable and you disagreed with that, why? >> it's definitely not the best bill. the best bill is the one that the senate won't bring up for debate, tim scott's legislation. and frankly, it would've been nice if they'd worked with us. we offered 12 amendments in committee, good, thoughtful amendments. no amendments were allowed to be offered yesterday, they want even debate tim scott's bill. i would point out a couple democrats and one independent, it had tri- partisan supported the senate to bring it up for debate. the rest of the democrats decided not to bring it up.
12:10 pm
that's the biggest problem and we didn't offer one thing, we offered our previous question resolution condemning this crazy idea of defunding the police, they did vote that down, the democrats did so at the same time they are voting that down, they are cheering on the rioters across this country and the minneapolis city council is voting to disband the police department in minneapolis. >> trace: if you say, look, the democrats, this bill is not going to pass. tim scott, senator tim scott appears to be done. what's next, where do we go? is this going to be one of those things where there's just no action on? >> that's an avenue to get some progress done and something good done for the country. and training, accreditation,
12:11 pm
helping police officers deal with concerns on their community, democrats want to play politics, they just want to attack. i think this is what's sad, it's driven by this radical cancel culture left. think about it, the cancel culture left says you get attacked by them if you support standing for the national anthem. if you take your voice fishing e fishing and where the wrong t-shirts. abolish police department like minneapolis did today, allow these autonomous zone's to be created, that's a big concern. i really think this election over the last several months will come down to can america stay america? will would be able to be america in the future? or is the cancel culture left going to attack us so much that people can't even speak out in the debate, that's my biggest concern. >> trace: i wonder the
12:12 pm
minneapolis city council, what's your thought on that? they still want to have community enforcing, some licensed law enforcement officers but they acknowledge, they don't know how it's going to work. it could be chaotic, it could be dangerous, nobody is sure how this is going to work. >> we do know what will happen, communities will be harmed. people will be harmed, police officers will be in more danger if they allow any police officers to stay around and those communities they serve will -- there will be harmed, real consequences. we had dan bongino, former ny nd officer, secret service officer to address our committee and he said when you do this, when you have policies that encourage the cop to stay in the car or don't have cops at all, bad things are going to happen and that's with the democrat bill on the floor yesterday does, it encourages the cops to stay in the car and not get out in their community and do the good work the best majority of them do. that's the problem. this is part of this bigger mob pushing things from the left
12:13 pm
that i think is so dangerous for our country. >> trace: we talked to many police officer saying look, the bottom line is we want to get out and do our job but we feel as if people are not going to have our back. we are afraid to do our job, congressman. it was good for you to join us, i've got to go we will have you on again. thank you, sir. we've got a big show ahead, markets reacting as covid cases surge, causing governors to halt reopening. dow down with 47 minutes left in the trading day. austan goolsbee and steve moore, our friday econ team debated and roughly 90 cops in atlanta reportedly called out sick on the very same day as the state deals with deadly police shootings had on. i will speak with georgia attorney general chris car about that in a moment. plus, protesters targeting and

12:18 pm
that. 170 police officers, you've been very supportive of the police officers in georgia, what do you make about them calling in sick. we don't feel like our chiefs in the city and the political establishment have our backs in these types of cases. >> well, trace, thanks for having me. it's something we've heard from police department and police officers around the city and around the state. at the end of the day we don't need to create more disincentives for police officers to want to do their job, we know that there is a debate, an appropriate debate over accountability and technology and training but it's like at my fellow colleagues and i wrote a letter to the president, to the congress talking about defending the police. we don't need to create more disincentives. it's not going to make anybody savory. whether it's atlanta, georgia, or anywhere else around the country, we need to support our police officers, we need to make sure they are held accountable
12:19 pm
but we've got a situation right now where there is no trust, you're seeing it on both sides of the equation. we need to do it forthrightly. for police officers who have done at the right way all their lives to not want to come and do their jobs. >> trace: i want to put part of it on the screen, you can comment on it as you fill in the blanks. elected officials who say defunded doesn't mean defund choose to ignore the consequences of their statements. to defund the police would mean to turn our backs on victims of domestic violence, or the elderly being physically and emotionally abused. creative parsing of the word "defund" is an attempt to pacify the loud, lawless view and at worst an attempt to vilify a noble profession. >> that's exactly right, defending the police is not going to make one person in america any safer.
12:20 pm
we can talk about technology, we can talk about training, we can talk about accountability. my colleagues and i believe in the rule of law and common sense and defunding the police meets neither criteria and again, nobody will be safer in america if we defund the police. >> trace: i think you are to be able to trust, like you were saying earlier but there seems to be this disconnect on building the trust. you have the mayor of chicago begging walmart and begging target to stay in southside chicago and they are thinking of pulling out and yet they are talking about defending police. there is not a business in the world that wants to go into some area that has a high rate of
12:21 pm
violence without a police presence. >> we've got an initiative in georgia called the trust the trust initiative which goes to the issue of police community relations. talks about addressing history and acknowledging history but then creating a program and a constructive dialogue to move forward. those of a kind of conversations that we need to have, those are the conversations that are meaningful. they can happen around the country, there are others that are going on that are very similar but those go to the heart of the matter. police-community relations, how do we establish trust? acknowledge history, get together, talk with each other, listen to each other and find those meaningful solutions. >> trace: georgia attorney general chris car, thank you for your time. we appreciate it, sir. >> thank you. >> trace: fox news poll's show that joe biden leads president trump in a key battleground state and close races in others. analysis from fox news sunday anchor chris wallace coming up next. a caricature artist, i appreciate what makes each person unique. that's why i like liberty mutual. they get that no two people are alike and customize your car insurance so you only pay for what you need. almost done. what do you think?

mark zuckerberg says the social media giant will start labeling its posts that violate its rules but are still deemed newsworthy. they will also ban posts with false claims about voting. the reversal comes as a zuckerberg has faced criticism as twitter started flagging president trump's tweets for violating its policy against abusive behavior. >> it doesn't matter because they are going to just do whatever they want to do. he can't perform, he's not going to be able to perform. he's shot. whether you like it or not, he's shot. the radical left is going to take them over. >> trace: president trump speaking during a town hall with sean hannity yesterday in wisconsin, let's bring in chris wallace. i guess what he's saying is in essence, you know, joe biden is not far left but the political current is going to take him that way, is bound to take in that way, a fair assessment? >> i think he saying more than
12:27 pm
that, he saying that biden is not that far left and you can't portray him like bernie sanders, i think he is also saying that joe biden doesn't have the mental capacity to be president and he will be the victim more than a prisoner of people around and who will be far left and that's one of the big arguments the president is clearly going to make, that joe biden has lost a step or two or three as he is now 77 and that's going to be something that we are going to have to see biden show on the campaign trail when he finally does go back onto it full time closer to the convention in august that is up to the job. >> you mentioned joe biden there, we want to play one that's gotten a lot of air time and we going to play the whole thing because it appears that he didn't correct himself fairly rapidly. let's play this and we will get your response on the other side, chris.
12:28 pm
>> now we have over 128 million data from covid. any income of 120,000 data from covid and you have so many, now we are past 2 million i mean and we are talking about it like it's over. >> trace: of the president came out and tweeted saying look, joe biden clearly, a lot of people stop that sound bite there where he stopped at 120 million, he corrected it fairly quickly there and still he got a lot of heat for that including from the president and i'm wondering if you think that's fair of all these days. >> no, i think it's a cheap shot. biden makes enough mistakes that you can find them, all of us have said it, 120 million -- i mean 120,000 which is basically what he did and in fact in that same town hall with sean hannity, the president at one point says, well, biden is
12:29 pm
going to be president because maybe people don't like me or something. he in effect says "biden is going to be president. look, we all know when something is really off. and it biden has said some things that were off. that wasn't one of them. >> trace: you talk about the bunker strategy and look at these polls and joe biden is doing pretty well. the strategy seems to be, let the president run against himself and don't get in the way of that. but you see there in texas, georgia, florida, joe biden leading pretty much in everyone, texas surprisingly by one point and georgia and florida also doing quite well. >> you are exactly right. there is a rule of politics when somebody is in a hole, let them keep digging, don't get in the way and at this point trump is beating trump and biden is
12:30 pm
trying to stay out of the line of fire. i don't think he can do that all the way to november, he's going to have to get out on the campaign trail, we think there will be at least three presidential debates, each one an hour and a half long so people are going to get a chance to comparison shop here but to the degree possible, biden and the democrats want to turn this into a referendum on donald trump, how donald trump has handled covid, how he's handled the economic fallout, how he's handling the racial situation which incidentally according to all the internals in these polls is where trump has really gotten hurt by ten or more points and people are asked who can handle the economy better, rather trump by a little. who can handle covid better? biden by a little. who handles race relations better? biden by a lot. so they want to turn this into a referendum on trump. the trump people want to turn it into a choice.
12:31 pm
biden versus trump, they think they could win in that situati situation. >> trace: the biden campaign came out and said we are not going to be complacent, we are going to start campaigning and fight this thing. chris wallace, great at the see you, thank you so much. and this week on fox news sunday chris talks with the president of black lives matter of the greater new york area, also former cdc director on your local fox station. check the tv listings for the time in your area. while protests and heated debate over a statue of abraham lincoln and a freed in d.c., we will have a live report from the park and the founder of bet accusing democrats of taking black voters for granted. our panel will weigh in on his comments. >> if black americans want to go all the way, they'll never get there in the democratic party

>> trace: protesters demanding the removal of the statue in the kneeling at the feet of president lincoln. another protest planned for tonight at the emancipation memorial. the mayor of d.c. is pushing back, saying the mob doesn't get to decide which statue stands in our nation's capital. gillian turner reporting live in washington. >> hi. as you can see here at linkin park that emancipation memorial is still standing today, you can see it right there behind me and just a couple hours we are expecting hundreds of people, maybe thousands to descend on this part, multiple rallies planned for inside the park, tonight we don't know yet whether they are going to be renewed efforts to bring that statue down, we are hearing different things play
12:37 pm
out, different kinds of chatter on social media so far this afternoon. there were several dozen national guard troops deployed to this park earlier this week. it where the emancipation memorial stands, d.c.'s black female mayor, muriel bowser two weeks ago established the nation's first black lives matter plaza said it's time to restore some order to the process when it comes to determining which statutes come down and which stay. she's also readily admitting, americans have very different feelings about this particular statue, take a listen. >> there are a lot of competing views about the emancipation statue at linkin park. so we are -- i am getting my thinking around how we can have a discussion about that. >> president trump actually echoed that sentiment last night, he told sean hannity, he totally sees why different groups of americans may feel
12:38 pm
differently about and react differently to this emancipation memorial. >> the position, he's getting up, he's being freed by abraham lincoln and i can see controversy but i can also see beauty in it and it was paid for by. i don't know if you know that, it was paid for because they were so grateful to the president. >> just a few minutes ago i had the chance to catch up with marcus goodwin's team here inside linkin park, the guy that launched the petition to have this memorial brought down. and interestingly, his team tells me they now don't think the statue should be toppled, they think it should be updated so that the is now standing beside abraham lincoln or they think it should be transported to a memorial somewhere in the nation's capital so we will keep you updated on those developments, too. >> trace: please do. gillian turner live in d.c., thank you. let's bring in jason nichols, professor of african-american
12:39 pm
studies at the university of maryland and david webb, fox news contributor and host of "the david webb show" on sirius xm. you know, we played a lot of the sound throughout the day from robert johnson, the founder of bet who said black lives matter should form their own party because he says the democratic party takes african-american voters for granted and he uses this as an example, i'm going to play it for you and get your response on the other side, watch. >> vice president biden said to african-american, black american hosts on his show, even if you think about voting for donald trump you're not black. to have that mind-set, you must have the attitude that we black americans -- we own you, we can take you for granted. >> trace: we should point out that former baltimore mayor stephanie rawlings blake said it was taken out of
12:40 pm
context, he's being divisive because that was taken out of context. your thoughts on that? >> the video is there for everyone to see and this interview but it's that hubris with which joe biden reflects the democrat party that has existed for decades. what bob johnson said, the very successful man who built a successful entertainment network is that blacks have to take back their political power. no matter who you are, black or white or any other ethnic group, if you gave your unyielding support to any one party for that long, that party owes you nothing -- owes you very little because they've got you and blacks who have been democrats in their voting majorities for what, five decades now, since the civil rights battle have simply surrendered themselves to democrats who have given them fairly nothing in return, trace,
12:41 pm
for what they've asked for. have they gotten reparations, have they gotten anything? not saying i agree with that but the but if they actually gotten? failing communities, failing schools, liberal progressive policies in baltimore have destroyed that city, so many urban neighborhoods around the country follow that model, look at those towns, look at those cities, what have you gotten? take your political power back, offer it to none in an unyielding fashion. >> trace: what if they gotten? did david make a fair point or is he off-base? >> well first i want to say about what bob johnson said and i actually agree with him and i agree with david that african-americans should have a collective agenda and should vote as a special interest group and certainly on the local level i think black lives matter could certainly run people for local office is particularly offices like district attorney which is
12:42 pm
an elected position, sheriff which is an elected position which would affect a lot of the policies they actually advocate for, it makes sense that they would use their political cachet and actually try to get change that way. so i agree 100% there. as far as things that have happened in cities, i think that is a very simplistic way of looking at things and if you're going to blame stephanie rawlings blake, i'm about 20 minutes from baltimore city and i lived in maryland for most of my life and i can tell you, it extends far beyond stephanie rawlings blake, it's an issue with deindustrialization going back to the war on drugs led by republican presidents, this is a bipartisan issue. i think it makes very much sense that african-americans take back their political power. one thing i will say, they are asking i think the wrong questions. i have respect for them but they've oftentimes said it, you
12:43 pm
know, what is your black agenda? and the answer, the question should be, here is our black agenda, what are you going to do? >> trace: we apologize for the abridged version of this, we had a little breaking news. good of you to join us, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> trace: a live look, with minutes left in the trading weekend it's down, not bad as it was 15 minutes ago but way down, 697 points, often goolsby and steve moore are here to dig into how coronavirus is affecting markets and a house several states paused reopening plans. plus, we will check in on two astronauts participating in the first of four space walk commissions today. the tempur-pedic breeze° makes sleep...feel...cool. because the tempur-breeze° transfers heat away from your body.

12:49 pm
about that, economically? >> certainly it's going to be a negative if states start to dial it back. you are seeing a little dialing back in some of these states like texas where the governor said you can't go to bars and things of that nature. there's very little evidence, if anything the evidence from the other way that lockdowns prevented the spread of the disease. look at new york which has had record amounts of deaths and one of the strictest lockdown policies, number one. number two, i don't know if states are going to be able to lock down their economies, people are ready to get out, ready to go to stores and playgrounds and beaches and things of that nature. i think politicians have a real hard time enforcing lockdown orders if they try to do it. >> trace: look at all the

scientific data and the multigenerational households in new york in these nursing homes and hospitals. who in small areas with low ventilation, it spreads like wildfire but maybe it's time, it's a good thing for some of these states to dial this thing back a little bit if the cases start to spike. >> it's clear that many of these states wanted to get out of there lockdown and they did so too aggressively and people did not wear masks and now you've got the disease starting to spread at a rapid pace once again. i don't understand why we are not learning the lesson of other rich countries in the world. korea, it's done. new zealand, the epidemic is over. australia, dunn, germany, dunn, scotland, taiwan, japan. public health, get people to wear masks, limit for a short period in a serious way the interactions of people and you
12:51 pm
can get the disease to stop spreading. when you do that half approach like what we've done and you've got the president encouraging people to go out before the disease has stop spreading, you get this. you get a reinfection rate and it's going to send us back to square zero. it's a really big mistake. >> trace: maybe it's a good point but steve, the truth is if you're going to be south korea, we are not built like south korea, we can't go all the way because he violated civil liberties. you can't just contact trace whoever you want to and that's what these countries have done to lock this down, we don't have that ability in this country because we have robust political debates. >> i don't disagree with austin about masks. but here's the problem what we are saying, one of the great success stories is japan, japan never locked down their economy,
12:52 pm
they didn't have these kinds of draconian stay-at-home orders. they did have social distancing features. we had to learn from what works and what doesn't work. the most important thing is to keep seniors safe, nursing homes safe and other people have a pre-existing condition but for young people we do know that young people are not very vulnerable at all of this disease, it's an old person's disease and there's no reason to keep schools closed. >> young people infect all people. we also know young people infect old people. and they live in the same houses so we've got to be careful. >> well, okay, fair point. >> trace: you're exactly right. when the lockdowns come in and you have these contained spaces, the whole theme here is, get them in ventilated areas, get people who are vulnerable secluded and the rest need to be in ventilated spaces. thank you so much, we appreciate your time. >> thank you.
