find. leadership in both parties was slow to get to the facts and be transparent with the members, that seems to be an ongoing problem. the real problem you have is we need to get out of afghanistan. there is no reason for us to be there. american fighting men and women, uphold the constitution of the united states. what does that have to do with afghanistan? absolutely nothing. they want to get us in every conflict in the entire globe. american fighting men and women are over 100 countries, most members of congress, this one included, to name 100 countries, they even know us. you've got a lot of things, one of the sources, when somebody doesn't sign up and say i am the source i question it was when

the mainstream media makes these accusations and that is the source, it becomes the source one other politicians or insiders quote it just like we saw in the previous russian probe. it is just smoke and mirrors. if the president needed to know about it, absolutely wrong, frederick is a thug. we need to stop playing footsie with these people but overall we need to -- this tells us why another reason we need to get out of afghanistan. no reason american fighting men or women comes home in a body bag or worse, in a mental condition that will further wreck themselves and their families. >> you come a lot of ground with an answer. general mckenzie, the top us general in the middle east recently made some big headlines by saying he doesn't think these russian bounties led to the deaths of us troops but at this point can we definitively say that russia did in fact pay these bounties to the talent and

even if they didn't lead to us deaths? >> we can't definitively say that. the folks that were briefed in the meeting and both parties are being kind of hush about it all. it is the old adage, just about power and we've got a group, in both parties who would like to see this white house crumble and if they could make a move towards that you have seen it in both parties and it is a disgrace. of the president knew about it. it is not clear. i just don't see it. todd: all right. jillian: i thought you had one more question but we will wrap. thank you so much. >> appreciate it.

follow the committee. it will be one side railing on trump and the other side trying to defend trump and nothing will be resolved by the committee, just before the media and the truth will live somewhere in there. carley: have a happy hearing. is that something you wish someone? todd: colleges including harvard suing ice over a new rule that could deport students who don't take in person classes. carley: do they have a case? jenna ellis is next on that one.

>> welcome back. a certain texas county taking coronavirus restrictions to the extreme, threatening to arrest anyone who breaks self isolation

after testing positive for covid-19. where do we draw the line on civil liberties. joining me live is jenna ellis. people who test positive and then head out to the public be arrested? >> this is an example of something that needs to be contemplated by state legislatures, the police power of states is very broad and we are learning americans are we contemplating civics and constitutional authority under the ninth and tenth amendment through the covid-19 process. what is interesting about this statute is the legislature or even municipal code hasn't been put in place it had public input but the attorney there is referring to the texas penal code which states a person -- if he recklessly engages in conduct that places another in imminent danger of serious bodily harm and they are interpreting that statute and applying it to covid-19, those are legal terms with the precise meaning in the law.

serious bodily injury can't be established for something like covid-19 so i don't think these are charges that carry water at all and it is more of a tactic that is designed to scare people and try to keep them in their homes if they test positive but it will discourage people from getting tested. >> the word reckless means something significant, not just a word for their for fun. let's go to this topic. a lot of schools, colleges, universities, joining harvard and mit to sue immigration authorities over a new policy from the trump administration for students to return home if the courses they are enrolled in are entirely online. here are the schools that are top of the list, a number of schools joining harvard and mit and in an amicus brief you see the others on screen, critics say this is an attempt by the

trump demonstration to for schools to hold in person class is because foreign students pay full price and don't get federal financial aid. your response? >> this is common sense. if everyone is taking a class online there is no reason to have them come over anyway. we all experience that, we can all participate in online but the constitutional analysis is clear, the supreme court ruled in trump v hawaii in 2018 that a substantial deference must be accorded to the executive in the conduct of foreign affairs and exclusion of aliens. it is clear the trump administration can do this and it is common sense in terms of the online environment we are in currently. >> how is this ultimately resolved? >> this is something the trump administration wins because of

the precedent, the executive has the ability under the constitution to exclude any class of persons or group of persons for coming in for any reason temporarily. todd: classes scheduled to start august. always a pleasure, thank you for your time this morning. >> great to be with you. carley: do this, not that. the new study ranking activities that pose the least and greatest risk for contracting the coronavirus.

the left? he is joining bernie sanders in releasing a platform of party recommendations aimed at united, moderate and progressive democrats. >> rob schmidt joins us live with what that plan entails. >> reporter: joe biden teamed up for the unity task force in may. after months of negotiations they released a list of recommendations that lay out a roadmap for the party, the first 6 words of the document, climate change is a global emergency. this 110 page platform focuses on an array of issues like climate change, criminal justice reform, education, immigration, healthcare and the economy and includes rhetoric similar to bernie sanders's presidential campaign platform, some are copied word for word. look at this, both pushing to create a civilian core of unarmed first responders like social workers, emp, nonviolent emergency and conflict outside,

justice system, training police officers to focus on the most serious crimes. the former vice president mimicking rhetoric by ilhan omar earlier this week. >> we must begin the work of dismantling the whole system of oppression wherever we find it. >> we will have a breathtaking opportunity, to americans who have been denied it for too long, to rewrite our economy. >> reporter: the vice president appears to be adopting more far left policies, several key progressive platforms were notably not endorsed including the green new deal, defunding police department, the federal legalization of marijuana and the document does not support open borders, the vp stopped short of supporting medicare for all focusing on expanding obamacare. biden will discuss the platform, he will be sharing that critical swing state with mike pence as

well. >> reporter: the trump campaign will go through that document with a finetooth comb as well. meantime former ambassador to the united nations nikki haley warns that if biden is elected americans will be the ones who suffer the consequences. >> you don't have to like him but look at the results he has done and raised the quality of life are so many people and let the results of biden with president obama. the african-american community, women, hispanics, none of us felt those results like we have with donald trump so facts matter, results matter, no question if you put them side-by-side, if we go with president biden we will lose our rule of law, we will have the

progressives running away with everything, getting all of what they want and we will get closer and closer to the socialist countries we have fought so hard not to become. >> the president is setting his sights on economic recovery with potential trillion dollar stimulus bill to help the jobless numbers. we will find out where unemployment stands when the weekly report is released later this morning. >> new york times columnist urging joe biden not to debate donald trump unless he agrees to two conditions, thomas friedman says biden should stay off the stage and let the president releases his tax returns from 2016-2018 and both campaigns should have a real-time fact checking team that would callout misstatements or lies, the conditions cannot be met, friedman adds, quote, joe, stay in your basement, we will see. newly surfaced court documents allege the daughter of called mom lori vallow was sexually

abused by her biological father, told the social worker about the abuse in 2008, the than 5-year-old claimed her mom knew. she faces several charges in connection to the death of kylie and her brother after the bodies were found on the property of her fifth husband. a former election official called on attorney general william barr to transform ghislaine maxwell to write rhode island. >> i don't think the feds can handle these prisoners. if i were william barr i would seek to obtain a substitute jailer and have mixed maxwell place on rikers island with the department of correction. the jails are empty because bill diblasio has police reform quote has bail reform so everybody's in the street. >> the brooklyn prison where

maxwell is being held is so notorious for sexual abuse of inmates, jeffrey epstein's ex-girlfriend faces charges for abusive underage girls. carley: nationwide coronavirus cases now top 3 million, texas is reporting its worst day for hospitalizations and deaths and right now there are just over 1000 available icu beds. our next guest is an emergency physician in houston and knows firsthand how dire the situation is. the president of the texas medical association, doctor diana life. thank you for coming on and all you are doing to help fight this virus. are you concerned that texas is going to run out of hospital beds? >> we do get concerned at times like this. we had a lot of practice over march and april where a lot of

hospital beds were developed such as opening a large stadium in houston and making it to hospital bed, that was shut down because we didn't need it after all. now that we have so many cases coming up, a lot of the patients now are younger and not quite as sick but because of the volume we have a lot of very sick people too. we may have to go to the next phase of opening up something like a stadium. >> of you been able to nail down why there is such a significant spike? do you chalk it up to people just getting complacent and not wearing masks anymore? >> texans were really good in march and april about socially distancing, staying at home, wearing masks and then once things opened up a lot more beginning may 1st, especially once memorial day hit people did get out more and more, you would see pictures of crowds, people

standing shoulder to shoulder not wearing masks, seemed to deteriorate at that point. >> is the mayor of houston on his concerns, take a listen. >> if we don't get our hands around this virus quickly, in about two weeks our hospital system could be in serious serious trouble. >> the coronavirus is continuing to spread in our city, and collectively we have to do everything we can, working together in order to slow the progression. >> that is the mayor. the governor has issued a mask mandate, shutdown stars, put restrictions on restaurants, some people in texas say that goes too far. a mercedes and going far enough. >> as physicians we hope people will just start even harder to

follow our recommendations particularly staying at home and especially if they are over 65 or have chronic illnesses been paying attention to social distancing, masking, washing your hands, avoiding large events, those types of things which is why we made a list to delineate in order of what the riskiest things to participate in in the least risky things to participate in so people get a better feeling. carley: such a great idea, the texas medical association you are president of released it, thank you for that, it does show activities that are the highest risk like eating at a buffet, working at a gym, going out a bar, lower scale activities like opening mail, getting takeout, that sort of thing, tell me how you came up with this list and why it will be helpful for people to take a deeper dive at these different activities.

>> texas medical association has a covid-19 task force made of many physicians or epidemiologists, public health physicians, infectious disease specialists, together with the committee on infectious disease and we picked out several activities, quite a few activities that we thought texans would participate in in the summer time so it was designed for texans and was made for texas physicians to help their patients understand the ratings of these activities of the scope of expert physicians got together, they were assigned to look at five factors involved in these activities like the activities on the inside or outside where there is plenty of room for the virus to dissipate into the air so to speak, how close is everyone to each other, what length of time are we talking about an actor, a few

minutes or hours? compliance, an activity where people pay attention to social distancing and wearing masks, personal risk level, activity with teenagers and young 20-year-olds aren't going to get as sick or older people at more risk. >> it is helpful to see it laid out the way you guys did. you are fighting the good fight, thanks, appreciate it. meantime, a heroic act caught on camera. a texas police officer rushes inside a burning home to save any-year-old boy. officer joshua gonzalez running into the flames in a cloud of thick black smoke, the fire destroyed the home. heather: boy was pretty sad that his football cleats were lost but the officer told him he would buy him a new pair. how cool is that? officer gonzalez will join "fox

todd: a un expert will present a report on the, quote, unlawful killing of soleimani to the group's human rights council. >> the department announces a report saying it whitewash is the later rainy in general's acts of terror.

>> after a new report called the killing of top iranian general soleimani unlawful the state department's firing back to the state department spokesperson morgan ortagus said the findings of the investigation were intellectually dishonest and whitewashing soleimani's past is a deadly terrorist. he was killed in a drone strike outside baghdad international airport in january after orchestrating the siege on the us embassy in iraq. the investigation into the strike was led by the un special restaurant or on extrajudicial summary executions, she will present her findings before the un human rights council and she believes the us violated the un charter. donald trump is maintained the act was in self-defense as soleimani was planning further attacks in the region against us forces after previously being linked to rocket attacks that

killed american troops. soleimani was the named coordinator for iranian proxies across the middle east that often pose threats to the united states and its allies. these developments come and continued regional tension between iran and the united states. the us sanctions continue to cripple the iranian economy asked her on pushes forward its nuclear program. as for the un human rights council meeting today, the united states will not taper after pulling out of the two years ago and looking at the broader picture there are likely to be any repercussions against the trump administration or the united states for the killing of soleimani like many things at the united nations. >> joe biden says he will rejoin the world health organization on his first day if he is elected in november. it was his response to donald trump's announcement that the us will withdraw from the who next july. >> reporter: joining us to weigh in, house oversight committee

member congressman james comeer. what do you think of biden's promised to rejoin the who, good idea or not? >> bad idea. who, how out of touch joe biden is, china lied, the world health organization complied and many americans died and for joe biden to immediately say we will keep spending tax dollars with this organization, he is just wrong and i hope the american people taking note. shannon: the world health organization criticize donald trump's traveling, praise china's response and then find out the who didn't even learn about the virus from china, they learned about it online. at the same time, is it smart to pull out of this organization while we're in the middle of a

global pandemic? >> i don't see anything the world health organization has done to help us in this. historically speaking the who has been beneficial. when you go back to diseases like polio, the world health organization was on the front lines working with every country to make sure we eradicated that particular disease during this pandemic they have provided nothing of any benefit to the american taxpayer, the american people, the american medical community. they have to be held accountable, strongly disagree with joe biden and strongly agree with donald trump's decision to withhold american tax dollars, i signed a letter with ranking member jim jordan on the judiciary committee to see that the leadership of the who testify under oath to tell us exactly what they knew and when they knew it. >> let's look at the taxpayer dollars you mentioned, difference in funding between

the united states and china, approximately $893 million, china, 85 -- let's rounded up to 86 million. i look at this as a leverage play by the trump administration, what vice president biden justice illuminates that leverage, you agree? >> agree completely. we are spending too much money in washington, we need to review where we are spending money. i'm a critic of foreign aid for every country except israel. when you look at all the organizations the united states is a member of we for the bill on all of them. china has more population in the united states but we are spending ten times the amount of money to keep the who afloat, they need to be held accountable. carley: joe biden's campaign said this about defunding the police. criminal justice proposal made clear, joe biden does not believe police should be defunded. he said yesterday in an

interview he does think funds should be relocated from the police to other organizations. how does this play out politically? >> another flip-flop by joe biden, another example how out of touch he is. do we really want to defund the police? cities that have been taken over by the socialist movement, bernie sanders, alexandria ocasio cortez, places that need the police the most, i don't think a single american agrees with what those police officers in minneapolis and every american thinks those police officers should be held accountable and they will be held accountable but to defund the police is the dumbest idea yet from a liberal wing that is out of touch with working-class americans. i strongly disagree with the position joe biden had and i'm sure there will be a damage control very soon on his

flip-flop on this issue. shannon: thanks for coming on and we will be right back.
