philly's jersey anyway. carley: of everyone you would be the one to point it out. i didn't recognize that. rob: got to love it. jillian: thanks for watching. be back here same time tomorrow "fox & friends" starts right now. steve: that the is cure to studyee f midtown manhattan. july 13th, 2020. welcome to the big room in new york city. looks like there is going to be a 40% chance of thunderstorms this afternoon, jed and brian. but the high is going to feel like summer should be 85 here in new york city. jed, good to have you. she is in today for ainsley. jedediah: yes. thank you. it's a pleasure to be in for my friend ainsley today and always a pleasure to be on "fox &

friends" weekday. lots of news to get to but great to see you both. brian: fresh off 8 hours on saturday and sunday. should be a walk in the park for urges jed. note to stuff, check the weather before you leave your moon roof open at the train station. it's going to be a wet return home this afternoon. i digress. steve: so you are telling us you left the moon roof open? brian: what could happen? steve: brian, you have a wife and three children at home. call them and hey you know the spare set of keys. drive o'er to the train station and close daddy's roof? brian: it's a little early i don't know if you noticed. they won't come to the phone. steve: text them, snapchat them. thank you for joining us on this monday. as jed just said it is a busy start to the workweek. we start with a fox news alert. struck two two of america's biggest cities this weekend as shootings continue to surge across our nation. a crime wave of sorts.

in chicago the "times" reports at least 63 people were shot and 13 killed. among the victims a 15-year-old boy who was shot at 4:50 on friday afternoon. this marks the fourth straight weekend packed with violence in the second city, jed. jedediah: in new york city, the "new york post" reports there were 15 shootings in 15 hours. violent clashes also breaking out between pro-police and black lives matter protesters. demonstrators surrounding an nypd officer and throwing an egg at him. brian: unbelievable. rioters also setting a garbage can on fire ordering clear the area. two people reportedly arrested at that time. meanwhile, this is the most predictable problem that we have in america when you disrespect law enforcement. when you say that they're the problem. when you say you are going to defund them. when you say you are going to re-purpose funds, they do this thing called i'm retiring. maybe i'm going to pull back a

little. maybe i'm a little concerned about losing everything that i have worked for, including being sued because they are not even guaranteeing me immunity. the "new york post" editorial board wrote an h editorial basically saying the same thing. here is the headline or some of it. soaring disrespect for cops means the most trouble for the most vulnerable new yorkers. the most vulnerable need the most policing. when the police officers aren't there, those people who are law-abiding citizen pay the price. steve: the article in today's "new york post" can you find it new york post.com says, in part, the main price for this widespread rise in disorder falls firmly on residents in the city's poorest neighborhoods. the law-abiding majorities in those areas don't deserve. this but the politicians are afraid to stand up to the loud unruly few. and any police officer who tries to do right is acting at his or her risk. and what this article talks

about, and it starts with what we have now seen from july the 1st in that video where there is a scuffle, a crowd, an unruly crowd and a police officer is put in a head lock. and the editorial asks what if and this is probably some of it right there. what if an officer put a civilian in a head lock and sas mayor de blasio this week with l. sign a city council bill to make police criminally liable not just using head locks but any that restricts a diaphragm. stay completely hands off. don't make arrests, jed, if an angry crowd interferes, just step back or it could cost you your life or your job. jedediah: steve, you mentioned politics being afraid to stand up. bill de blasio was busy painting a black lives matter muller next

to trump tower. that's what he is doing with his time as shootings are surging particularly poor neighborhoods in brooklyn and the bronx. it's not just police officers. i have been talking to transit workers, people who man the subways and the buses. they are afraid, too. you see violence surging in those areas as well. less police officers on the street. police are retiring. they know if they have an emergency, it's going to take longer for police to get to the scene. this defund the police movement is insane. you're going to see people fleeing these cities. they are not going to want to keep their families, their businesses there. steve: they are moving now. justified jed any area without police, that doesn't mean that the crime goes down. that means that the crime goes up. anyone with a thinking head is going to be able to put two and two together and get out of those city us. brian: if you want law enforcement reform or bring it to the challenges of 2020 people are on the same page. keep in mind, both republicans and democrats were close to passing law enforcement enhancement and reform and they

agreed on 70% of all aspects of this. they are going to have law enforcement at the table and talk about extending the academy and different challenges they have and try to make things better. now it's blue against everybody else. and they feel as though they don't need to deal with this anymore. a lot of them throwing in the towel. keep in mind in new york, they had a plan, they were going to and back pedal off their plan. community leaders and community organizers walking around with police officers to make sure they are doing a good job. because you know if someone is in the community they're qualified to supervise and observe or evaluate a police officer. he is, the brilliant mayor has put that on hold for now. also that whole thing of having social workers and. steve: co-responders. brian: whether you have a dispute, when you have to go to a broken home, social workers ask for cops to come with them. they have had their job enhanced

because of safety. now you want them to go in first. daniel odom says politicians need to put themselves in law enforcement' shoes. >> i recommended that the political leaders do some ride alongs. they go out there on the streets and they ride along with the police officers and see what is actually happening and then if they want to intervene, let them intervene and see what it is like to be on the front line of putting your lives on the line and then not having the back end to do something. brian: the end of this -- we could do three hours on, this is that i like to know where joe biden stands and all the people that are going to work for him if he wins because i know where the president stands. is he not for this. democratic cities when asked. i will sit there and give you the military. i will give you national guard. call it in to create some law and order in your town, in your city. in chicago. in minneapolis, in seattle, in new york. they say we got. this you don't have. this so i need to know where joe

biden stands on this because i think america needs to know what it looks like if he wins in november and staying in his basement and not answer something not okay. steve: you know when senator tim scott's bill failed in congress. he was on the program the next day and he said the democrats would not sign on board because they wanted to make this an election issue for november. and it surely is seems to many it is binary choice. one side is for one thing and the other side seems to be for something else. meanwhile, let's talk a little bit about the pandemic. covid cases 3 million here in the united states. a terrible number. 135,000 americans so far have died from covid related illnesses. betsy devos who is the secretary of education was on "fox news sunday," and she said she intends for the kids to be class in fall. it's not a matter of if, fully

functioning means that kids can be back there and for families that need their kids in school and personal five days a week nothing in the data that suggest that kids being in school is in any way dangerous done so successfully and safely. promise to students and their families. if schools aren't going to reopen and not fulfill that promise, they shouldn't get the funds. then give it to the families to decide to go to a school that is going to meet that promise. steve: so it's all about school choice, really. during ordinary times it would be do you want to send your child to a public school or a private school. now what she is suggesting is send your child to a private school, like one of the parochial schools that will be open. it's interesting in fairfax county, virginia, just outside

of washington, d.c. they are trying to figure out how to do it. all they have come up so far is the kids will be able to be in class two days a week, which means the parents have to scram to be find child care for three days a week. but you talk to the administrators and they say look, we are following the centers for disease control' suggestions and we figured out how to place the kids 6 feet apart. but the problem is, jed, we don't have enough room to actually do what the cdc is requiring with a school district of 188,000 kids. they say they would need space in schools essentially equivalent to five pentagons. jedediah: yeah, i have taught in schools with classrooms as small as two, as large as 42. i can tell new most schools you are not going to be able to do. this you are not going to be able to manage hallways and keep kids 6 feet apart and desks

6 feet apart when you are talking about little kids not sharing toys and books. teachers are not going to be able to get to the curriculum. that's going to be a reality. we have to figure out what is requesting to be safe. betsy devos didn't say follow the centers for disease control guidelines. trump administration coming out with their own set of guidelines. we have to figure this out for the safety of teachers and kids and make sure -- you don't want kids going to school and teachers just managing masks and managing germs all day. they are supposed to be teaching the curriculum. we have to figure out a way to make that happen. i don't know what that is today. i looked through these centers for disease control guidelines i'm telling you as a former teacher, most of these are not realistically possible. brian: if i were lucky enough to have schools close in your area because of declining enrollment, begin to take their own class because they have smaller class sizes and they fan out. i was heartened to see that scott gottlieb, often a credited

tiskt administration but often valued in the "wall street journal" today says schools can open safely. the "new york times" says schools should open as well. i see this country called norway and belgium and another country of called netherlands and germany. they are all doing it. get your educators over thrrntion find out what they're doing and what works. they also have those brackets that go around that aren't that expensive it, doesn't seem that go around each desk that provides a bit of a barrier and helps kid study the in long run, too i would imagine, if it could happen. if your mind set is i'm going to make it work, you will make it work. if your mind set is let somebody else figure it out, it will be a disaster mile. hope is that teachers are so enterprising the ones that pull money out of their pocket on a daily basidaily basis make clask great. if you put those teachers in charge they will make it happen. steve: brian, opening the schools has become political just as law enforcement has. brian: don't let it. steve: you know what? we had with us toward the end of

last week the ceo of goya foods. the largest hispanic food processor in the united states of canned vegetables and things like that. he had been at the white house the day before. and he had gotten such backlash because he showed up and there he is right there with the president. on thursday. he came on the program on friday morning and made it very clear, i don't understand where the backlash is coming from. there is a double standard. i went to the white house with the obamas, no problem. i go for trump, and look where i am. here's bob the goya ceo. >> it's suppression of speech. in 20128 years ago i was called by michelle obama who wanted to approach the african-american community. hispanic community to eat more nutritionally. i went to the white house later and i introduced hispanic heritage month.

president obama. and so you are allowed to talk good or to praise one president but you are not allowed, when i was called to be part of this commission to aid in economic and educational prosperity and you make positive comment, all of a sudden that's not acceptable. so, you know, i'm not apologizing for saying, especially if you are called by the president of the united states, you are going to say no, i'm sorry, i'm busy, no thank you. i didn't say that to the obamas and i didn't say that to president trump. steve: a bit of a double standard right there. jed, what's interesting is after he appeared at the white house some people from the political left including aoc called for a boycott of goya foods but now there is a radio show host who started a buycott and encourages people to buy more goya products. and if you are not going to use them go ahead and donate them to

a food shelter. jedediah: yeah, people will. people will buy a lot of goya products. because it's so ridiculous are we so fragile as a society now that you can't buy a product from someone from a ceo of a company who disagrees with you on on something? do you know how many products i buy every day where they are come ceos who disagree with me. can you do what you want buy or not buy in america. really so small-minded the second someone says something that you disagree with even someone like this who is nonpartisan who has been to the white house like you said, steve, with the obamas who would go with any president. answered believed he could make a difference in a certain arena. but you can't buy that product because he said something nice about president trump? it's absurd and reflection on us as a society and how weak minded we have become. shame on aoc, come on, this is ridiculous. brian: i see something simmering

beneath the surface because we watched those comments. he may not be political but he appreciates the president and his policies. number two is the other person who appreciates the president's policies, the president of mexico within two days of other, remember the president hispanic because they were going to it will what he meant by cracking down on illegal immigration and building the wall. the president has been tougher on venezuela, look at the friendship with the mexican leaders and look at the situations like hard-working hispanic leaders like the ceo of goya and their wonderful family story, if there is some inroads being made and i wouldn't be surprised if this pays off electorally. i don't think that's the goal with goya foods in particular, but i think i see a trend bend building. steve: cue see the trend building toward the first tuesday in november. everything is political. law enforcement as we have detailed this morning. political. the opening of the schools is political. and even a can of beans now is

political. man o man. where are we? anyway, we have a busy three hours. thank you for joining us on this monday. with less than four months to go until the election. leg up in key battleground states. something you are not hearing from anyone else. ronna mcdaniel the rnc chairwoman is going to be with us next. ♪ ♪ did you know liberty mutual customizes your car insurance ta-da! so you only pay for what you need? i should get a quote. do it. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪

♪ ♪ welcome back, everyone. if i could see the prompter i would read it verbatim but i will go off this graph. the voter registration for democrats is going down to the shock of many. republicans are beating them in colorado, florida, maine, north

carolina, and pennsylvania. joining us now is ronna mcdaniel beings the rnc chairwoman. ronna, was this a surprise to you, a welcome surprise, i imagine. >> it's not a surprise to me, brian. because we have been building up our ground game for the past year. we have had people in all of these battle ground states. we have the highest staff that we have ever had and we have activated over a million volunteers. and the biden operation has not been exist tent. so the second the pandemic hit, we went completely virtual. we haven't lost a step and continue to do voter reg. and we have registered more voters already than we did in the entire 2016 cycle. brian: when i looked at the cbs poll in battle ground states shows texas trump up by one. florida biden up by 6. arizona a tie. they looked at those three states. number one, i know texas is a concern. is it a worry? >> you know i'm not concerned about texas and you look at that cbs poll and i hate to get into the metrics how they determine that they didn't even do likely

voters. i really struggle with. so mechanics behind these polls. this is not what we are seeing at the rnc. we see the president in very strong shape in all three of those states. brian: when you look at what is going to be happening at the convention in jacksonville when we see that state is basically on fire with the coronavirus. i'm not necessarily jacksonville but what dots that d does that r convention hopes. >> we are always looking at the circumstances on the ground. in florida we actually have a governor and mayor who are working with us right now. charlotte we did have a mayor who is working with us but not a governor. and we are going to put the safety and the health of the convention goers first and foremost. we will be making adjustments as we get closer, still over a month and a half away. that's going to be the primary focus as well as making sure we have a great event to renominate our president. brian: picked an interesting time to be the chairwoman there is nothing usual every single day. you brought up something very interesting in the break with me about college campuses.

how does that play into november? >> yeah, so. if these college campuses are vacant in the fall, it really changes some of these battleground states if students aren't there. you are not going to be able, for example, in new hampshire, to do same day registration and then turn out all these college kids. that's going to change a lot of these states and calculus for democrats in some of their turn out models. brian: real quick, if you were to tell the president anything about the coronavirus and how it could help you get him four more years, what would you tell him? >> i think continue to pound on the leadership that he has shown during coronavirus. i think the american people don't recognize the amount of tests we are having every day. the fact that we aren't talking about needing ppe or ventilators and how far along we are. i think he is doing the right thing. get our kids back to school. both of my kids go to public school. let me tell you virtual linger is not the same as learning in the classroom. we need to put our minds to it and get this done.

brian: i don't know if you saw my rundown. that's the next seeing. i was going to tease. you kind of blew it. next segment was about getting kids in school. i know every day is a busy day, especially today. thanks so much for joining us ron ron thanks, brian. brian: coming up next. dr. nicole saphier on what it takes to get our kids back in school. don't move. usaa is made for what's next no matter what challenges life throws at you,

steve: back with a fox news alert. at least 15 people remain in the hospital overnight after an explosion aboard a navy warship a naval base san diego. todd piro joins us from the newsroom as emergency crews continue to fight the raging flames out on the west. todd? >> steve, good morning, this fire, which first broke out yesterday morning, still burning at this hour. right now 15 people remain in the hospital in stable

condition, including 13 sailors and two federal firefighters. helicopters dropping water as crews continue to battle the flames. the ship's mast actually collapsed overnight and the san diego fire chief warning the ship may burn down to the water line. the navy reporting that the flames sparked during routine maintenance in the lower cargo hold of the uss rashard and assault style ship outfitted to carry landing craft, troops and band landing boats. the exact cause still unknown right now. the navy saying there is no ammunition on board as initially feared and nothing dangerous is burning at the moment. navy officials saying that as soon as the fire is out, they will begin work to make sure the ship can sail again. fire crews believe the ship could burn for days. back to you. steve: that is hard to believe. todd, thank you very much. jed, over to you. jedediah: thanks, steve. the debate over reopening america's schools is heelgt up as president trump's education

r. occasion secretary pushes for students to return t return to n the fall. >> we need to make sure they are back in a classroom situation wherever possible and whenever possible. other countries around the world have reopened their schools and have done so successfully and safely. jedediah: here with a look what other countries are doing fox news medical contributor and author of "make america healthy again" dr. nicole saphier. welcome to the show as always. what are other countries doing that may enable us to open safely? >> well, jedediah, utter education specialist here as a mother and physician, i have looked at this is what i come down, to we know regarding children and covid-19, it's a very complex dynamic. we have several studies one of geneva and international one risk in transmission primary children under the age of 10 is

very low. not only do they have lower risk of being infected themselves. if they're infected, they are less contagious, it would appear, than say if they were over 10 or over 20 for that matter. different countries are doing it in different ways. >> you see most of the other countries have opened up schools. germany for one is creating what they call little bubbles. they have a classroom where they don't interact with anyone else in the school. if there is one child that tests positive in that classroom, that classroom has to go on a mandatory quarantine for two weeks. they are still continuing virtual learning but they are removed from the school and the school goes on business as usual. israel, on the other hand, they had a small outbreak in a middle school, again, there has not been evidence of any outbreaks in primary schools but middle school they had two students test positive, they were brothers. they infected two other children. they closed down the entire school. a little bit more disruptive. i think in the united states that we should consider something of the creating bubbles.

i have been saying to friends and family find your covid bubble. if you surround yourselves with people you trust and create that safe space, then if someone gets infected you know it's just that bubble and not a wider population. jedediah: you know, doctor, i could talk for hours about what would and would not work from the cdc guidelines having spent so much time in classrooms. i want to ask you do we know why young kids are less likely to spread the virus? one concern is spread to teachers who you have a pre-existing condition and be more vulnerable than the children would be. why does that happen? >> well, listen, i understand why teachers and even family members are concerned with sending children back to school. i have an autoimmune disease. i'm on medication that expresses my immune system. just like front line workers who kept the grocery stores open and physicians like myself who still went in wearing masks and gloves and face shields and washing hands like crazy, we have to educate the education of our future generations must go on.

it is believed right now that children, perhaps, are less contagious because they potentially have fewer of these a 2 cells within their respiratory system that's a particular type of cell that the sars co-v 2. may not have as compromised immune system as we do. they are less likely to get infected and legs likely to spread the virus. jedediah: i feel like we are learning something new about this virus every day. thank you for being here and guide our way through it all. thank you so much. two texas police officers killed in an n. an ambush. their chief says they never had a chance. former nypd officer dan bongino says this is why we should honor our good cops every day and guess what? he's on deck.

you know, and i had mentioned to you both how the most dangerous situation situations police officers are in are typically domestic violence situations i gave an example of the situation i was in where again i was this downchild there cowering. manual was irate. very dangerous, emotions are high and sadly this appears to be one of those situations that ended tragically for everyone involved this is why i'm so passionate about will recall absurd defund the police. you are going to get more people killed. imagine ache police officer for a moment. you join and sign on for a job where every day is an unknown. even within those days, every job you show up at, steve, is an unknown, too. imagine dealing with people every single day as a police officer. put yourself in their shoes. in the absolute worst moments of their life, every single day then that quickly becomes the

worse moments of your life and your family never sees you again. now do you see why when i'm on in network i acknowledge policing we should do better. everybody should. every organization can improve. why i'm so deeply emotionally offended by me morons that attack the police all the time we would be lost without them and all be in danger. steve: i have a question for you while you are on this topic, dan. as you talk about defund also the movement to dismantle the police. what if that call came in and rather than sending a police officer they sent a social worker? >> you know, it's a great question. as i said i love -- can i my graduated degree in social work. this is not it. sending a social worker into a volatile, potentially violent, in this case deadly situation, an unarmed social worker with no control tactics, firearms training or any kind of deescalation training for

violence? are you asking to get people hurt? one more thing defund the police imbecile. with mental health situations too we can send psychologists and social workers. great, couldn't those aren't the calls. the emotionally disturbed calls edc calls. in small subset those people get violent. that's why the cops are there and not the social worker. have any of these people thought this through? these people are dunces. do you understand these elected people talking about this are dunces? they have no idea what they are talking about and they are literally going to get people killed i'm not kidding. brian: i want to get to aoc and about ridiculous idea of why the crime surge. the daughter of one of the cops killed put out a tweet. words cannot describe the pain i

feel. amazing man. anyone you ever came across know that i miss you dad. you died doing what you love most. you died a hero. i love you, #blue lives matter. do you know she had to delete that tweet because people were insulted she wrote #blue lives matter? i do need to say anything? >> brian we li -- the population of imbeciles right now is so ridiculous. think about this. i said to ainsley once on this show. she asked me what it was like to be a cop. i get a text on my phone right here. i'm not kidding, a couple times a year with the nypd from a friend of mine says someone who i knew or someone i knew knew someone else was either dead or shot. now everyone listening, imagine that's your job, just for a second, please to all the imbeciles who thought it would be a great idea to attack this woman. imagine you get a text about how your employees or someone who is

either dead or shot. you can't imagine that thank god you don't have to imagine that. that's what cops do. not you. think about that when you attack this woman. brian: i hope tunnel 2 towers helps out this family. that will be great. steve: she was just writing about her dad, too. dan bongino thanks for joining us today. have a good week. >> you got it. steve: joe biden promising to bring jobs back to the u.s. if he becomes president. the says he is just ripping off president trump's ideas. charles payne with what is being said coming up next. onamel willp push the minerals back into the enamel, to keep the enamel strong. i know it works. and i hear nothing but great things from my patients that have switched to it.

steve: welcome back. one of trump's top economic advisors calling out former vice president joe biden over an economic plan that he says sounds awfully familiar. >> is he blatantly ripping off the president's buy american -- i have personally been at the president's side when he signed at least seven buy american orders. that's seven more than biden signed or obama signed during their term. and every one of those has worked to create american jobs. steve well now that joe biden's economic agenda is out as of the end of last week for voters to compare to the president's current one. how big an impact will the

economy play in the 2020 race? let's talk to the host of making money of fox business charles payne. charles, if joe biden is suddenly sounding like ureg donald trump when it goes to buy american doesn't it sound to you that their research has shown that blue collar democrats think that president trump's message is a good one for them so they are essentially borrowing it. absolutely here is the thing president trump got a lot of those voters the first time he ran for office and he started to deliver for them. from january of 2017 until november of last year, 500,000 new manufacturing jobs from january 2009, of course, until january of 2017 our nation lost 200,000. that is a stark difference to create half a million in three years, three and a half years and lose 200,000 over 8 years. no one believed it could be done in the democratic party. and that's why, you know, they

lost. and so biden -- so disingenuous, steve. i looked at his speech and i saw where he talked about earning $42,000 a year. in a sympathetic tone like whoa is me. you realize 69 to 75 that's when the pay was 42,000 for senator. the average american was making 33,000 a year. these weird efforts to try to connect with the average person out there blue collar workers or people who get their fingernails dirty. no one is buying this joe biden from scranton, pennsylvania blue collar guy act anymore. steve: charles, one other story that started percolating at the end of last week, the ceo of goya foods went to the white house at the did o request of te white house. he had already been at the obama white house to provide information about nutrition and stuff like that. and he said, you know, i go because when the white house invites you, you go. but then, of course, the boycott

started and led by people like aoc suggested buy all this stuff. it has backfired on the boycott people because now they are doing a buy-cott mike apell cana buy goya foods. donate to your local food pantry. food bank. church cupboard, et cetera. don't go away, support guy a go out today and buy your goya foods. sandra tweeted local walmart goya almost wiped out. what boycott? this is a buycott. >> in my house we have a ton of this stuff. my wife is a proud puerto rican from the bronx. and let me tell you something, you know, hispanics love goya. when you talk to hispanic person about goya, they talk about it with a kind of pride. you know, understanding that

it's, first of all, number one hispanic business in america for years from scratch it's the quintessential american success story. absolutely love it. for aoc and julian castro, you know, i loo looked at castro's e early life what's missing where he created jobs for human beings and helped people pull themselves up by bootstrap same with aoc. trying to tear down success from generations from true hard work and sacrifice. true risk-taking all because someone has something complimentary to say to president trump. when i went to goya's home page on friday, there was a piece in there about family and the american dream and think about this. the ceo of goya saying that hispanics can have success in this country, he knows personally without hiring minimum wage without the government tolding their hands.

is he preaching the major of attainment, obtaining the american dream. that's the worst thing can you do castro aoc and others who only preach hopelessness to hispanics, blacks and others. steve: nobody complained when he went to the obama white house. he shows up at that event last week -- >> -- he got an award from obama. did he work with michelle obama. it was admirable. it was admirable stuff. yeah. i hope a-political folks who have pride in these products retain that pride and 4,000 people that work for this company around the world particularly in america. steve: there you go. charles payne with a look at his kitchen, thank you very much. >> okay. steve: coming up newt and lawrence jones. insurance so you only pay for what you need. almost done. what do you think?

breast cancer. >> there is sensitivity thing that some people have. i don't have it i don't cry at movie. i don't gush over babes. i don't celebrating five months early and i don't tell a man who just screwed up both our lives oh, poor baby. >> preston's career included roles in jerry maguire and love of the game. she starred in several movies with husband john traflt including final role in 2018. travolta announcing her death overnight on social media. writing quote she fought a courageous fight with the love and support of so many. kelly preston was 57. we have another fox news alert now. a fire cause by an explosion on a navy warship is still burning at this hour. at least 21 people were hurt aboard the uss shall in san diego. 56 those victims remain hospitalized in stable condition. there is no word on the cause of the explosion. fire crews believe it could burn

defending the russia probe and roger stone's prosecution. it? >> comes as republicans anxiously await for the probe investigating the investigators to wrap up. brian: up. will that even happen especially when it comes to the durham probe. white house as leaders call for the former special counsel to testify. are we doing this again, mark? >> steve and brian and jed it looks like it. all weekend long president trump faced criticism over the decision to commute roger stone's prison sentence. some of those included former special counsel robert mueller. he was set to go to prison this week after lying to congress and witness tampering. president trump has felt that stone was unfairly targeted and the president tweeted about it over the weekend. he said roger stone was targeted by illegal witch-hunt that never should have taken place. it is the other side that are criminals including biden and obama, who spied on my campaign, and got caught.

roberts mueller fired back in own "the washington post" op-ed piece. he said we made every decision in stone's case based solely on the facts and the law and in accordance with the rule of law. getting the attention of linz is i graham the chairman of the senate judiciary committee. he wants mueller to come up and testify before his committee. mueller testified before the house after the russia report was released graham has not said when this hearing is going to take place. the president faced a lot of criticism from democrats, including also two senate republicans over of the decision and house speaker nancy pelosi, guys, says she wants to reign in the president's pardoning powers continue to play out. jed, steve and brian, back to you guys. steve: mark meredith down the street from the white house. thank you very much. let's talk a little bit about what is happening on main street in chicago, illinois, the second city, the binsd windy city. the crime wave continues. 56 people shot. 10 killed including a

15-year-old who was gunned down at 4:50 in the afternoon on friday. and while that number is jaw-dropping it is slightly a dip from the fourth of july weekend when 79 were shot and 15 fatalities. meanwhile you move on to new york city. over the weekend there were 12515 shootings in 15 hours. and one u.s. congresswoman from the great city of new york, had this observation during a virtual town hall of where this crime i coming from. >> maybe this has to do with the fact that people aren't paying their rent and are scared to pay their rent. so they go out and they need to feed their child and they don't have money, so you maybe have to -- they are put in a position where they feel like they either need to shoplift some bread or go hungry. keep in mind that this uptick in crime that's happening right now is with a $6 billion new york

city police department budget. we have shoved more and more and more money every single year into the nypd. it has not prevented this uptick in crime. steve: well, when you look at video like this, and this was july 1st, and this is when during a disturbance, one of the -- somebody got a police officer in a head lock and, of course, the police officer knowing that he would get fired or pruitted if he did the same thing to the perp, he did not. so the question is what -- if the officer had put the civilian in a head lock because, as we know right now, here in new york city, the mayor is about to sign a city council bill that makes police criminally liable, not just for using head locks but for any action that con districts a civilian's diaphragm, and the message, jed, to the police is stay completely hands off. don't make arrest and if an angry crowd interferes step back because there was a crowd around

that guy who was in the head lock and they told the guy who had gotten the cop in the head lock to disappear so he would not be arrested. jedediah: yeah, police are starting to not know how to do their jobs anymore. they don't know what to do because there is a fierce anti-police sentiment popping up arranged the country in cities like new york and you have police retiring and have them stepping back. you know what? we have families, too. we don't need this every day. we are putting the uniform to help protect people and help save lives. frankly nothing but aggravation start to finish when the vast majority of them seek to do good. will will unfortunately you will have bad actors. one more point, the absurdity of that aoc segment, if you listen to that segment, she is talking about shoplifting bread. we are talking about 15 shootings in 15 hours. this is not about shoplifting bread. this is about massive looting. this is about massive violence.

had you kids getting shot. it is insane. you walk through the streets of new york city. and if someone can be elected to congress, representing new york and be that out-of-touch, that is deeply, deeply disturbing. brian: you know the headline in the "new york post" today is so much bread is missing, someone must be hungry and that is the major problem. there are 43 shootings so far this week. more than triple of a year ago. attention to ocasio-cortez. it turns out you have 35,000 police officers who make on an entry level this huge sum of $40,000. they get trained for six to eight weeks. then they are put out to defend the city which is the number one terror target in the world. that is why they are funded. not to get rich. to defend you from the most crime-ridden neighborhoods to the most affluent. and now they're being told to step back, you are not appreciated and defunded. the 6 billion is not going to luxury apartments. these are unions that have been

negotiating with them for years. they get an average of 1% raise and now you think the problem is there is too much money in policing? now we are watching what happens when you condemn policing and you look to arrest officers. they pull back. and the people that you represent pay the price. here is dan bongino. >> why i'm so passionate about fighting against this absurd defund the police redic ridicul. you sign on for a job where every day is aoun known. even within those days every job you show up, steve sun known, too. imagine dealing with people every single day as a police officer. put yourself in their shoes. in the absolute worst moments of their life, every single day. and then that quickly becomes the worst moment of your life as you never walk out of there again and family never sees you

again. elected people who talk like this are dunces. they have no idea what they're talking about and they are literally going to get people killed. i'm not kidding. brian: there was a pro-cop demonstration over the weekend and they squared off with the black lives matter protesters in southern brooklyn. there was a 12 and 15-year-old wounded in that separate shootings. 21-year-old just sitting in his car when he got shot. the reason why this was the safest city in new york is because the 35,000 people worked overtime day and night and put together the finest police chiefs in american history in order to organize this force not only to a law enforcement force but an anti terror force and this genius has just gotten rid of the anticrime unit so now these pretickets are flying blind. they have no idea where the hot spots is they have no heads up on what is coming in and out of the city as disastrous decisions as you will see. hopefully people will sober up soon, steve.

steve: do you know, what brian, it was after the looting and the trouble, about a month ago now. that so many people said hey it looks as if the police were told to stand down. we didn't see much happening in the way of that last week out in minnesota which had a lot of damage after the george floyd police involved killing and then you had last week you had the governor of the great state of minnesota waltz asked the federal government for half a billion dollars to help pay for the damage from the riots out there. and the looting as well. and the president over the weekend said no. not going to give you the money. now ted cruz has said he is going to introduce legislation to make local governments liable to private property owners if they deliberately withhold police protection. because you pay all that tax, and when you pick up the phone,

you figure police ought to show up. and if they don't, now where are we? meanwhile let's talk a little bit about this? what is going to happen with kids in the school year that is coming up in the fall? it's become very clear to betsy devos, secretary of education, just as is the case with the administration that she would like the kids back in the classes. and for parents, you know, look, everybody knows there have been problems with online learning because the platforms don't load properly. sometimes they don't work. a lot of the kids get a couple hundred email a day and the parents for small children have to go through it. they simply don't have time. of course, if the kids don't go to school, then the parent can't go back to work. so betsy devos wants to make sure that they are in the seats in november. here she is yesterday on "fox news sunday." >> the operational and fully functioning means that kids can be back there. and for families that need their

kids in school in person five days a week that has to be an option. there is nothing in the data that suggest that kids being in school is in any way dangerous. and we know that other countries around the world have reopened their schools and have done so successfully and safely. american investment in education is the promise to students and their families. if schools aren't going to reopen and not fulfill that promise. they shouldn't get the funds. then give it to the families to decide to go to a school that is going to meet that promise. steve: school choice. jedediah: i spoke with dr. nicole saphier earlier because we were talking about the need for schools to reopen but the need for them to reopen safely. she said we should consider creating bubbles in schools. take a listen. >> the risk of transmission in primary aged children under the age of 10 is very low. most of the other countries have opened up schools. germany, for one, is creating what they call little bubbles. so they will have a classroom where they don't interact with

anyone else in the school. so if there is one child that tests positive in that classroom, that classroom has to go on a mandatory quarantine for two weeks. i think in the united states that we should consider something more of the creating bubbles. i have been saying to friends and family find your covid bubble. because if you surround yourself with people you trust and create that safe space then if someone gets infected then you know it's just that bubble who is at risk and not a wider population. brian: just to follow up on that so far germany, switzerland, norway, denmark, greece have reopened. belgium have reopened. they have had success. do you know who didn't one of the most disciplined on the planet israel. having problems now. shows you the well financed government and the most conscientious government you could pull it off. there are mistakes that are made that people don't have to replicate. let's learn from this and i

think it's important for betsy devos to have answers to questions of what would school look like when they go back? instead she answered genericry i think as the secretary of education she should have been specific this is some of the criteria and we got to do better on testing. waiting five to seven days in texas. you saw the line lines in houstn specifically. you see what's going on in florida. you can't start school unless can you test the teachers and give the idea about the kids. so i think that all plays into it. have you got a couple of months to do it. please do it. meanwhile you, critics are slamming president trump for slam roger stone's. where was when president obama commuted a terrorist sentence. harmeet dhillon will call out the hypocrisy that will be next. s are very acidic

and aren't necessarily great for your teeth. the acid can actually wear away at the enamel which over time can cause sensitivity and a lot of people start to see their teeth turn yellow. i like to recommend pronamel to my patients to help them protect their teeth and keep the enamel strong.

>> roger stone is convicted of seven felonies. for the president to take this action it is certainly going to hurt politically. >> this isn't just about lying to congress. that means lying to the american people. it's about our national security. >> there are two systems of justin now in america. one for criminal friends of the president, like michael flynn and now roger stone and one for everybody else. brian: wow, critics quick to blast president trump for commuting roger stone's sentence on friday. where was the outrage during the obama or clinton administrations for example. our next guest says stone was the victim of political prosecution and trump was right, persecution i should say, to commute his prison term. here to react is harmeet dhillon founder of the center for american liberty. so in what way do you think the president was right to do what he did. >> for one thing he did not

pardon roger stone. he commuted his sentence. roger stone is appealing the sentence right now and appealing his conviction all together. the president simply made sure that a person approaching his '70s is not put into prison during a time with covid where we are actually allowing violent criminals who committed very serious offenses against our country and individuals out of prison. so i think really that's the issue is compassionate. it is considering the fact that the entire prosecution was based on the mueller witch-hunt which turns up nothing against the president or against his immediate surrounding supporters regarding russia collusion. we have all seen the testimony and seen the zero prosecutions that were [inaudible] brian: let's take a look. i don't know if you have a monitor there or a television. the commutations by president. let's take a look. president trump has 10 so far. so coming up on four years. president obama 1715 over 8

years. george bush had 11. bill clinton had 61 including his own brother there was some outrage on the clinton exit pardons. but i don't remember a problem with the commutations. again, we do this all the time. do you see a double, triple, quadrupled standard? >> yes. the same people clutching their pearls and shrieking about the roger stone commutation. i didn't hear that complaining when oscar rivera was pardoned by president obama. he was even too much of a terrorist for clinton to pardon. clinton pardoned one of his major campaign donors marc rich is a person who was a fugitive from united states justice and that was -- after the two pardons or commutations you don't like our political process. issue constitution and nancy pelosi [inaudible] try to reign that is in unconstitutional as i'm sure the people on the left have already told her. i think what we have to look at here is the compassionate nature of this. the fact that the president has been very, very sparing his four

years and using this important power at all. and i think when you look at the end of the day history will look back on these mueller prosecutions and see them for the injustifiable that they were. and i also think that roger stone has a very good chance of reversing at least some of his convictions on appeal. brian: as an attorney certainly would know that and lopez a radical marxist communist puerto rican killer. >> yes. brian: were you surprised? disappointed that john durham is not guaranteeing to have his report done as he looks at this overall investigation into what was happening with the trump campaign leading up to the 2016 election until after the election? >> well, yeah. talk about political, i think now john durham is being political because he doesn't want to be perceived as affecting the outcome of the election by doing the job that he was hired to do quite a while ago. and might even add on the pardon side the fact that you know,

similar outcome occurred with people pulling their punches in 2016 led to hillary clinton not getting her proper view and standing for the various offenses she committed. and so, look, justice must be done. it must be done swiftly it. must be on time. and i hope john durham completes his job that he was assigned. it's not really up to him to consider where the chips may fall. his decision whether whether a prosecution occur or not and then up to the attorney general. brian: on the total commutations with trump he has 11 with stone. had 10 leading up to stone. appreciate it. >> thank you. brian: still ahead, a police officer put in a head lock violence sparking across the country. this happening in new york. calls to defund the police is that a good right now. our police panel next.

usaa is made for what's next no matter what challenges life throws at you, we're always here to help with fast response and great service and it doesn't stop there we're also here to help look ahead that's why we're helping members catch up by spreading any missed usaa insurance payments over the next twelve months so you can keep more cash in your pockets for when it matters most and that's just one of the many ways we're here to help the military community find out more at usaa.com

...to soccer practices... ...and new adventures. you hope the more you give the less they'll miss. but even if your teen was vaccinated against meningitis in the past... they may be missing vaccination for meningitis b. let's help protect them together. because missing menb vaccination could mean missing out on a whole lot more. ask your doctor if your teen is missing meningitis b vaccination.

steve: 7:30 in new york city and back fox news alert. overnight an infant is fatally shot in new york city as police see uptick in crime. kayla from our affiliate in new york joins us live with the latest developments. kayla? >> yeah, steve, shooting suspect turned to murder suspect early there morning when a 1-year-old baby boy was pronounced dead here at the hospital in brooklyn. police are on the hunt for the people responsible. all of this starting around 11:30 last night in brooklyn. police say three men ages 37, 35 and 36 and that toddler were outside having a street cookout when two other men approached, opened fire on the group and hit all four.

the suspects ran off and while the victims were rushed to area hospitals, the three men we're told are expected to survive. again that 1-year-old baby boy was pronounced dead just before 3:00 this morning. this tragic incident is unfortunately far from an isolated one. shootings in new york city are skyrocketing. last week the nypd reporting a 185% surge in shooting incidents. a 206% surge in shooting victims all compared to the same time period last year. no sign of slowing down. police tell us on friday and saturday at least 19 people were shot across the five burrows that includes a 12-year-old and a 15-year-old. now, thankfully, those two are expected to survive. keep in mind, that the same days last year the number of shooting victims were just three. steve: all right. kayla, thank you very much for the live report. should point out in chicago, 56 shot over the weekend.

10 killed. here to react our police panel sheriff aaron toulon from suffolk county, new york. joe gomaldy and retired police officer from dallas simone wingo. good morning to you. sheriff, start with you. that bad news about the person being shot look at the shootings 15 hours in new york. for people looking in they have got to feel like crime is out of control. first of all good morning and thank you for having me on. clearly we have a huge problem in new york city. there is no support for the men and women of the new york city police department. every week we are hearing from something from city hall regarding new policing model which clearly is not working. they are not doing anything for anyone. and then how many more people really need to be or get

assaulted in new york city. saw a video of a man on the subway. this is a growing incident where we are seeing that people feel like there is no law enforcement. there is no law and order on the streets because of the public sentiment and now innocent people are starting to get seriously hurt and in the cases you just spoke about a young infant is dead. 's. steve: at any time terrible. joe, the terrible news out of texas is two mcallen police officers were responding to a domestic call, they knocked on the door. the door open and the guy shot both these guys dead. they were simply responsing to a call they did not see it coming. you are there in texas along with them. this has got to strike close to home. absolutely, it's intouriating. these officers were responding to a domestic violence call. this monster ambushes them and kills them.

to make matters worse one of these officer's daughter putt putt a trumping tribute. all these keyboard losers living in mom's basement trolls her and says the most horrible things imaginable. that's where we are in 2020. constant drum beat of anti-police rhetoric and false narrative have caused all of these attacks on law enforcement. but don't take my word for it. just look at the numbers. we have had over 159 police officers shot in this country this year that's one every 29 hours which is actually increase over last year's historic numbers. since the george floyd incident 48 days ago we have had 54 police officers shot and show nothing signs of slowing down. the other day in detroit you had local media jump over a story and put out a false narrative that the suspect wasn't trying to kill police officers meanwhile the video shows he tried murder two police officers at gunpoint. everyone needs to slow down, get

the right information out there and let's remind politicians and media, and the public that 99% of us are out there doing a great job putting our lives on the line. it's okay to still support us while holding the other 1% that give us a bad name accountable. these things aren't mutually exclusive. steve: c'mone i know you are down in dallas as well. over the weekend sergeant disturbance and couple of police officers are trying to arrest a suspect. a suspect gets the officer in a head lock. , here in new york if an officer a civilian in a head lock, they could kind up going away for a year because of the bill that the mayor is going to sign this week. it is suddenly so hard to do the police job. >> yes. and frankly, enough is enough. this is it. this is where you should drawing

the line. these officers are out there every day putting their lives on the line. this officer without out there doing his job, trying to protect the citizens of new york. you know, my thing is, why can't the mayor and the city council come out. if you came to your job every day and someone is spitting at you throwing bricks at you would you go back? these officers are going back every single day trying to do their job. you have a hype man out there telling the guy to put him in a head lock, get him, get him. that's horrible and disgusting. enough is enough. we are not going to take it. i believe that these officers should definitely look at some other options besides policing. you know, if you can't do your job, then go find something where someone can appreciate you for a whole lot more pay and a lot less hassle. steve: we heard from aoc over the weekend at a virtual town hall that she said the spike in crime was because some people are out of work and, sheriff, she said essentially they are stealing bread because they

can't feed their families. we are not talking about shoplifting here. >> no. absolutely not. she is absolutely wrong. can i tell you the fact that these individuals that are looting, that are vandalizing that are committing crimes are generally not individuals that are unemployed currently. so, you know, i think she needs to rethink and look at the individuals that she is speaking about and broad brush picture that she is painting over trying to make what's going on with the pandemic the response uptick in crime. steve: well, you know, the people in these communities are going to make choices about whether or not they want to stay there given the high taxes and the crime as well. so let's see what happens. is it all just political because of the election? we will know in november. sheriff and joe and c'mone, and joe thank you for joining us on this very busy morning. >> thank you. >> thank you. steve: you bet.

used by president trump. seem to be echoed now by joe biden. so we're going to bring in newt gingrich, fox news contributor. is he going to weigh in on some of this. former speaker of the house and author of "trump, the american future." welcome to the show as always. i don't know but, but i heard joe biden echoing a lot of the same talking points that president trump used to get elected. did you hear something different? >> no, look. i think that proves that biden has good polsters. they do good focus groups. they said, you know, the president has a winning message. why don't you steal it in the problem for biden is that he has huge tax increases. he has huge regulatory increases. his program would kill jobs not create them. and he has always been so close to china that it's hard to imagine he would follow trump's policy of negotiating as toughly as trump has, for example, with mexico and canada. so, i mean, biden can whistle the tune but he can't dance the dance the the fact when you look

at his programs they would kill jobs in america. every communist i know believes that the size tax increases biden is proposing would kill jobs and keep us mired down that very deep recession for probably 10 years. brian: so, newt, if you are the president, you hear that speech, he is talking about using government money to buy american things. the one thing the president could do is start labeling things where they're from. i mean, over the weekend, i bought a car cover. and i bought from an american company. it came from china. i had no idea and china was all over it. if you really want to buy american, i want the private sector to buy american. i want the american people to be making that in the perfect world. and i want to know what i'm buying. is he just talking about my taxpayer money and buying america stuff which is passing money around. >> first of all, part of the reason the president should be

fighting for 100 percent expensing for investments is so companies have an incentive to bring their factories back from china and rebuild them in the u.s. but i think the president ought to challenge biden and say why don't you join me, let's get a bowl to buy american, as you point out. to say have everything identified accurately. let's get it to the congress, joe. i will work to deliver the republicans, you work to deliver the democrats. see how long biden actually tries to do anything real about buying american. what you get out of the biden campaign is very good polsters with very good focus groups. he will say right things when they allow them out of the basement. they will be coached, they will be written, when you look at the policies behind him. they will be the policies of pelosi and schumer and aoc and bernie sanders. that's what we have seen happening now for the last two months biden every week he goes further to the left in his policy proposals. steve: well, it would suggest that part of donald trump's message is very popular with

democrats and that's why joe biden is recycling the president's message. meanwhile, speaking of china, newt, it -- this is breaking overnight it. sounds like they are going to be banning senator rubio and cruise and congressman chris smith along with senator sam brownback because they have been criticizing china. it's one thing to criticize other things but when you start to criticize china, don't look for them to roll out the red carpeting for you. >> well, look, i think this actually will further drive home that this is a chinese communist dictatorship, xi jinping is the secretary general or the general secretary rather of the chinese communist party much more than president of china. their reaction totalitarian dictatorship. you disagree with them, did you go to jail. i think that's why the idea that schumer is now endorsing birnldz

defense in this kind of behavior is crazy. we need to be competing heavily and investing heavily in order to contain china. not rolling over defund the police and defund the military which seems to be the battle cry of the modern democratic party. newt, if you are the president right now, would you rather be the president in 2016 in july or rather be the president in 2020? what is harder to do? win in 2016 or win when you are where you are right now in the middle of a pandemic in an economy that needs to be rehabbed with only four months to go? >> look, i don't ever want to second guess president trump because he did such an amazing job in 2015 and 16 when nobody thought he could. i just talked to charlie cook's projections. the day before the election in 2016 cook projected clinton

would have a minute of 279 votes with had 41 possible. he had her having about 320 electoral votes the day before the election. so i would just caution everybody when you realize, for example, the defund the police is 25% of the country, 75% of the country is against defunding the police. when people learn that the pelosi bill, the 207 democrats voted for, gives $1,200 bonus to every single illegal immigrant in the country, you go down this list, i think when we clarify the campaign and the choice, the president reelected and frankly, nobody would ever want to give up being president to go back and challenge. i mean, at this stage in 2016 no serious washington pundit thought donald trump was going to win. those of us who thought he was going to win were outliers and people thought we were crazy. brian: that's true. jedediah: a lot remains to be seen in the next few months including a vice presidential

pick from biden a lot of people are going to see what he does and what that means and what it reflects. thanks so much for being here, newt. everyone check out newt's book trump's book and the american future which is on sale right now. cece you soon, newt. >> good to be with you. jedediah: good to be with you two. carmen best is calling budget cuts to her department quote reckless. she is going to join us live at the top of the hour. actor isaiah washington is cook up some conversation in his new fox nation show and he joins us next. ♪ s. does it worry me? absolutely. new sensodyne sensitivity & gum gives us the dual action effect that really takes care of both our teeth sensitivity as well as our gum issues. there's no question it's something that i would recommend.

steve: speaking of the weekend crew it's great to have you as well we've got carmen best the police chief of the great city of seattle with us on the other side of a brief time out for the news and for that we go to jillian whose got a fox news alert. jillian: we do start with this fox news alert actress kelly preston died after a two year battle with breast cancer. >> there is a sensitivity thing that some people have. i don't have it. i don't cry at movies. i don't gush over babies. i don't tell a man who just screwed up both our lives oh, poor baby. jedediah: preston's career included roles in jerry maguire and for love of the game and she starred in several movies with husband john travolta including her final role in 2018 and trapezius volt a announces her death writing she fought a courageous love and fight in support of so many she was 57.

to another fox news alert now a fire caused by an explosion on a navy warship is still burning at this hour. the fire first started at least 19 hours ago. at least 21 people were hurt on board the uss at naval base san diego. five sailors remain hospitalized in stable condition. there is no word on the cause of the explosion. fire crews believe it could burp for days. the u.s. is topping 3.3 million total covid-19 cases , as states set new records more than 135,000 people have died nationwide. in florida more than 15,000 new cases were reported on sunday. a daily record for any state since the pandemic began. texas setting a single-day record for most hospitalizations with more than 10,000. houston city leaders are now calling for another lockdown, but there is a sign of progress. new york city once the pandemic

jedediah: and in new york city a one-year-old was shot and killed overnight in brooklyn. three other people were shot and wounded. it comes after the new york post reports there were 15 shootings in just 15 hours. steve: unbelievable. meanwhile, violent clashes also breaking out between pro-police and black lives matter protester s. demonstrators surrounded a new york city police department officer and threw an egg in his face. rioters also setting garbage canon fire, ignoring orders to clear the area two people were reportedly arrested. and as we talk about the trouble and what appears to be a crime wave sweeping the country with this gun violence there's a story in the new york post today about how one of their active reporters was down at the occupy situation down at the city hall over the weekend, and the guy

got hit with a 2 x 4 by one of the alleged suspects, got to say that, and he walked right over to the police and said hey did you see what happened? but the police said yup. and they wouldn't even file a report, because of the new restrictions on the police requiring what rises to the level of things they will arrest people for. just about half an hour ago we had a great panel of police officers on the program talking about the surge in gun violence and they made it very very clear that our police officers need our support and our respect or more people are going to get hurt. >> how many more people really need to die or this is the growing sentiment that we're seeing where people feel like there's no law enforcement, there's no law and order in the streets because of the public sentiment and now, innocent people are starting to

get seriously hurt. >> politicians, the media and the public that 99% of us are out there doing a great job putting our lives on the line. it's okay to still support us while holding the other 1% that give us a bad name accountable. these things aren't mutually exclusive. >> if you can't do your job every day and someone is spit ting on you calling you names would you keep going back? these officers are going back every single day trying to do their job. steve: and brian and jed its becoming harder and harder for them to do their job because over the weekend there was a disturbance and one of the officers was jumped by somebody. the civilian, the alleged suspect got the cop in a head lock which of course now we know the cops can't do but going forward it sounds as if mayor deblasio is going to be signing that bill that makes police criminally liable not just for headlocks but any time it constricts a civilian's air flow and the message, brian, to the cops is stay hands off, don't

make arrests and if a crowd interferes with you, step back, because who knows what's going to happen. you might get hurt, you might lose your job. brian: and steve the whole video shows that cop and another cop, actually wrestling that was his sec match. he had an earlier wrestling match with another guy that sub dues him and then this guy was right in his face and he turned around and took him on and it's amazing. i mean, they both look like high school wrestler, so they went at it. you would think if you touch a police officer you're going to jail and now it's you're wrestling with them on camera and nothing happens. it's incredible. new york and los angeles killings were up 23% and 11% respectively. philadelphia the number of gun shot victims has risen to an all-time high with 1,047 people shot already this year and in milwaukee, the homicides were up 37%. so everywhere you go, there's a problem with crime and shooting, and just ask yourself, if law

and order matters to you in november, whether it's your sitting senator, your local councilman, or your president, you got to ask who is going to bring law and order back to the streets. not many people were complaining about the lack of crime in new york and los angeles and the problems always been chicago now, it looks like the other major cities are trying to become chicago although in chicago, last year, and the same weekend, they only had 32 people shot, which is about a third as much as they had this time so wherever you go, law and order, law and disorder reign supreme. jedediah: yeah, and no matter whose president, you need these local political officials to do their job. you need these mayors, you need these governors to do their job unlike bill deblasio in new york whose busy painting a black lives matter mural outside trump tower he should be standing by the police, he should be saying what can we do to help you. brian: it's the opposite. jedediah: because new york is not looking so good right now.

and look at what we seen just the last few months, autonomous zones popping up where police are unable to get into those areas, you see so many people fleeing these cities because they don't know what to do, they can't have a business there. the businesses are getting loot ed and destroyed they don't feel safe with their families being there so i'm just looking ahead the next few months what is going to happen? we've seen the destruction of monuments and statutes and businesses, the destruction of our history, the cancel culture that has brought everything into society at this point it's a very scary time and there's no time that has demanded better leadership. we need strong leadership that supports law and order, but yes, supports things like police reform and is willing to sit down and have that conversation, but does not allow for the lawlessness going on because these crime rates are terrifying to people and that is regardless of what your gender is, your color is, it's terrifying to all. steve: absolutely and of course you just mentioned autonomous zones the first one very famous ly, from seattle and meanwhile, a majority of seattle city council members have pledged to defund the police

department by 50%, and right now , joining us from seattle, we've got the police chief car men best. chief good morning to you. >> good morning, good morning to steve, brian and jedediah. thanks for having me this morning. steve: it's great to have you. your police department has been in the news because you were ordered to stand back from the chaz zone. you were ordered to abandon the precinct and now as you look forward, chief, where it sounds like the city council is going to defund you to the tune of 50% , how safe is, will seattle be less safe if they take 50% of your cash away? >> well the easy answer is yes. we'll be much less safe if they take 50% of the cops off the streets. they don't have a plan, i've heard, to do anything to maintain public safety in the meantime, and i find this decision by seven members of our city council, to be incredibly wreckless and not taking into account the public

safety of other 750,000 people who live here in seattle. it truly is a tragic decision. brian: let's take a look at what it's going to mean if this de funding of the seattle police department happens. they are going to remove 911 dispatchers from police control. scale up community-based solutions to public safety that's so generic it could be anything, fund a community-led process to imagine life beyond policing, invest in affordable housing i'll go a little bit further, they are going to cut back on swat, on trafficking, you can't really exist. at what point, chief, since these people, the same ones who told you to abandon the police precinct and we saw the embarrassment which is the autonomous zone take place, at what point do you say i've got to walk away from this because i can't have my reputation by people who don't understand what i do. >> you know, i think all of the decisions have consequences obviously, and the decision if they decide to defund the police

department by 50% i think that will have negative consequences particularly if there's no plan. for me personally, i am committed to this organization. i've been here almost 30 years, i'm committed to the city and have a long history of working with the people and this city and the officers who are under my care, so i'm hoping that the council will reconsider this very rash decision and allow us to do the work that we're supposed to do for the city of seattle. brian: just to follow-up quick, seven of nine have already signed off on this so don't wait for them to sober up. they're not going to do it. so then what? >> well, you know, the future remains to be told, doesn't it? we're hoping and i'm hoping that people will call and write into council and let them know that this is a wreckless decision, that everything has to be thought out, there needs to be a plan and we need public safety. jedediah: yeah, you know, chief best, we thank you so much for everything that you've done. you've drawn attention to the

importance of police and the struggles and challenges that seattle has faced and magnified that for the whole country so thank you so much for all that you do. we appreciate you around the country. >> thank you, thank you very much. steve: chief i've got to ask you though, you know you've been in the business for over 30 years, and the level of disrespect of the police is not just there in seattle. it's here in new york. it's in chicago. it's nationwide. what happened and how frustrating is it for you. i mean when you got into the business people looked up to the police. >> well i think there's still a lot of people who look up to the police, and look to the police department for protection and for public safety, but there are also people who like to see some changes, and leave it or not we're not opposed to change but not change at the risk of public safety for everyone. these decisions need to be thought out. they need to be practical so that we can maintain our public order, and so i'm committed to

that. brian: so chief, you're in a unique position, as an african american and a police chief you know the main complaint with black lives matter organization aside but the movement aside they say there is a discord amount of pressure on the black community as opposed to the white community even hispanic community. how real is that? if you took the uniform off, would you be nervous if people didn't know who you are would you be nervous in seattle that you'd be targeted because you're black? >> yeah, i think that i have to continue just to answer this in a very broad way. you have to continue all the discussions about race and racism and disparity. i don't want to shy away from any of that. what i can tell you is that we're not going to be better if we don't take the steps to make sure that everybody is educated and that we're looking at systems and trying to make the changes that need to be made to make sure that we have equity for every person who lives, works and resides in this

country and certainly in the city of seattle. jedediah: chief best you see what's going on in places like new york city where we are right now. do you have any advice for the likes of someone like bill deblasio who many feel has abandoned the police department, has not stood by them in a way that they have needed. what is your advice to local leadership in these cities? the cities which may be looking like they're going to follow a path very similar to that which seattle just walked down. >> well i always say that we're all in this together. i'm a police officer, but i'm also a resident, i'm also a person who lives, shops, and works in this area, so i think we can all work together to make sure we're providing public safety. we have to be working together, having conversations. none of us should be operating in a vacuum or in a bubble and so when these decisions are being made particularly the decision in seattle to de fund the police department without having us come to the table with community, and figure out what it is we want to do and

how we want police services, that's wreckless. steve: and chief, a moment ago you said that you hope that the council reconsiders to de fund you by 50%. you said you're hoping that people write or call. how do they call or how do they write? >> well if there's a website, cityofseattle.gov and chose city council i would say write in and let them know that we need police services. we need to have open dialogue about what the future of policing is. we cannot risk public safety for the sake of political. steve: i've got a feeling people all across the country and around the world will e-mail that mailbox a little later on today. chief, carmen best, thank you very much for joining us and good luck. you got your hands full. >> i do. thank you, thank you very much. steve: all right we reached out to seattle city council president lorrainea gonzalez for comment but have not yet heard back.

meanwhile 8:16 in new york city let's switch to politics joe biden is building his blueprint for presidency but as he slowly reveals his agenda, is his vision more liberal than he realizes? lawrence jones is going to weigh in on that, coming up next. >> ♪ ♪ 49... 50!

and reflects a fundamental shift in the political landscape. fox news analyst lawrence jones is here to weigh in lawrence welcome to the show as always. so, i thought that joe biden was supposed to be the moderate democrat. were we wrong, lawrence? >> good morning, i mean, joe himself is moderate but that would require us to say that it's actually joe biden that has presented these policies. he has no control because he owes a lot of people, he owes barack obama, and bernie sanders for getting the progressive vote so he has to cave in on a lot of stuff to get those young people out to support him so this is not joe biden offering these policy proposals. this is a group of people in back rooms telling him what to say, so maybe he's personally moderate, but in order to win, you got to do a lot of compromising. jedediah: lawrence i want to ask you in particular about the issue of crime and law and

order because you see what's happening around the country particularly in cities like new york. crime is up very very scary things going on. where do you think joe biden will fall on the issue of law and order and on the generalized issue of what the police force should be doing and what should happen to them right now in this fragile time? >> well he's going to do what they tell him to do and i mean the base tells him to do. look, reasonable people in the country believe that there needs to be certain reforms in the country. i've talked a lot about that on this program, but the fact of the matter is you can't allow violent criminals to go throughout the community, and for aoc and crew to say this is only the coronavirus, that is a lie and is not based on the numbers. when you look at crime overall, crime overall is down, but when it comes to shootings and gang violence that is up so it's a particular issue that is going on. if he really wants to get those moderate people that

believe in law and order, then he's going to have to cave on the issue. i don't think he's going to because then that would require him to lose his base and the progressives on the democratic side but again, most people believe that reform needs to happen by the same token, i was just in chicago reporting on the violence there. they don't believe that kids should be killed in gun wars. jedediah: so what should president trump be saying in response to someone like joe biden? what should his message be when we have a difficult time when it comes to the economy, difficult time when it comes to crime, coronavirus. it's not easy to run for president right now. >> yeah, the message should always be first, equal justice and protection under a law that means everybody should be treated the same in this country , and then the message also should be that is the state's job to protect the citizens, and when you do not protect your citizens, then your citizens should vote you out and so the message should be clear no matter if you're a democrat or a republican. you can protect citizens and

their constitutional right to life and liberty and also protect them when the state abuses their power, also protect them when there is gun violence in communities where gangs stake over. there needs to be a balance message and i'd like to see both parties present that idea. right now you got two extremes. jedediah: thanks for being here, lawrence, as always some great advice to share, we look forward to talking to you again soon. thanks again. >> thanks my friend have a good one. jedediah: ben domerich on how much the impact will have on all of this in november, coming up, next. a lot of healthy foods are very acidic

brian: a group of 12 republican lawmakers now defending mark and patricia mcclosky, the st. louis couple you may remember because she sparked backlash for protecting their home from protesters by exercising their second amendment rights. in a letter to attorney general bill barr, the lawmakers say this. here is a quote. "charges against the couple have a chilling effect on the entire nation sending a message that american citizens no longer have the right to protect themselves on their own property on their own home, in their own home." here to react is the federalist publisher publisher ben domerich i have to keep saying to myself, what is the other side to this? they were threatened, on their own property. they clearly had breached their perimeter. why did it come to this? >> they called the cops and the cops weren't coming. i mean, this is exactly the scenario where you own a firearm and you're prepared to defend what you have but the

other side of this , brian, is what we hear from the likes of nicole hannah jones at the new york times who said in the context of the rioting that you saw in new york, that property damage and riots that cause it are not violence, but that the act of defending that is violence, and is violence that is predicated on in her view white supremacy which is what she says the second amendment was founded on. keep in mind this is not just some reporter we're talking about. this is not just some bias media individual. this is someone who created the 1619 project that is about to be taught in public schools across america. a falsehood about the founding of america, and that's really what they come from in this perspective. where they feel like people should just bend over become wards and take a knee, they should apologize for their white privilege and that they should let armed rioters just storm right through their house. now look, you could say whatever you want about the mccloskys, you don't have to have an

opinion but they're americans and they have the right to defend their property, and their homes and in this case i'm glad there are few people who are still willing to acknowledge that and stand up for that as something that is fundamental to their rights as americans. brian: when chaos was reigning in major cities you know what was happening in gun stores around america, people were lined up for the first time to buy a gun and you're trying to tell them, through the mccloskys , you better not use it and defend yourself and your family so the cops aren't coming and we can't defend ourselves. what country is this? >> brian we didn't talk about this before the segment but the fact is i have all these friends of mine who are on the other side politically from me, left of center people, a lot of them from big cities a lot of them from urban areas who reached out to me in the course of the past month or so, saying you know, i know this is a strange question but can you help me figure out what gun i should buy? how i can get it, where i can put it, what i can do legally because a lot of people in response to these incidents, you

know, are worried about the cop pullback they've seen, the fact that cops are under so much pressure politically right now, that they can't necessarily fulfill their jobs the way that they want to, and they're worried about being able to defend their homes, their property and their families. brian: the word politics, when it comes to cops, cops families, retired police officers, and police unions, how can they possibly side with joe biden? even though we gave lip service to i'm not going to defund the police, he also says he will redirect funds and everybody else's party. will he pay a political price for that? >> i think brian he will this is the first election that joe biden runs in in his entire political history he won't have the support of any major police man's unions and look you can say that we can make adjustments or we need to make reforms with the different police forces but the fact is that americans understand that cops are there when you need them, that they hold the line against chaos and against crime.

they instill order in the best way that they can possible, and the handful of cops who do bad things that's something that we learn about that we have to reform that we have to make changes about but that's not the majority of cops. its never been the majority of cops not even close and the way that they're being treated as if this is kind of a partisan issue now as opposed to something that has historically been bipartisan in america, where both sides agreed hey, got to defend the first responders and cops and firemen and everybody else who runs into these situations with bravery and with honor, that's something that is sadly, i think, brian going away this cycle and i think it's going to have consequences politically. brian: i would think so and you said too that kind of theme doesn't really show up in the polls but it'll show up in november. ben thanks so much always great. >> great to be with you. brian: tell the people of arizona, georgia, and texas that they can't defend themselves. i don't think they will be voting democratic. house speaker nancy pelosi slam ming the trump adminitration 's push to reopen

schools. >> this is appalling. they're messing the president and he and his administration are messing with the health of our children. brian: white house press secretary kayleigh mcenany here to respond, next.

just between us, cleaning with a mop and bucket is such a hassle. well i switched to swiffer wet jet and it's awesome. it's an all-in-one that absorbs dirt and grime deep inside. and it helps prevent streaks and haze. stop cleaning. start swiffering

this is appalling, they're messing, they're messing the president he and his administration are messing with the health of our children. it is, we all want our children to go back-to-school. teachers do, parents do, and children do, but they must go back safely. going back-to-school presents the biggest risk for the spread of the coronavirus. they ignore science and they ignore governance in order to make this happen. steve: the speaker of the house,

nancy pelosi talking about how betsy devos and the white house would like to open up the schools for the fall, make sure that all the kids are in the desks. will that happen let's bring in kayleigh mcenany, the white house press secretary. she joins us from the north lawn where it looks like it's a beautiful day in our nations capitol, kayleigh good morning to you. >> good to join you, steve. steve: so are you and the administration ignoring science just in a rush to get people back into the schools and not looking at the data? >> not at all the only one who appears to not be looking at the data is nancy pelosi because just last week, you heard dr. redfield say that children are not spreading this , that children are not affected the way that we see adults being affected, that he's the cdc director and said that during a press conference so she appears to not be looking at the data or the science and the only one messing with our children is nancy pelosi herself because there are grave consequences for schools staying shutdown, 55% reduction in abuse reporting in a state like

massachusetts when schools shut down all across the nation, we depend on our teachers, we depend on our schools and they need to reopen and the president has been unmistakable on that. jedediah: kayleigh i've been looking at the cdc guidelines as a former teacher and i can tell you that a lot of the guidelines just won't be practically applicable in classrooms it's not going to work. can you get any insight as to what the trump adminitration's guidelines which may differ from the cdc guidelines will look like? >> so we leave it to localities as to exactly what guidelines work because guidelines in a state like north dakota need to look different than a locality like miami. the cdc guidelines are out there as a best case scenario, this is how a school should look, but as you noted, several of the principles in there are not feasible and not possible which even the cdc guidelines say the upwards of two dozen times that they acknowledge these are the perfect world guidelines, these are not always feasible and one example i'd give you is the notion that every student should be bringing their own lunch to school.

we know that half of america's students depend on school lunch, from a poverty level standpoint, they need that school lunch, so that's just one example of many that are not feasible in every place brian: as you look to the south and the best, and the southwest, you see the virus really spreading, and testing seems to be an issue in certain areas but one other theme that came out over the last few days is within the administration, there seems to be a pushback on anthony fauc hi, to peter navarro saying that i like fauci, but he's been wrong a lot and peter navarro said the same thing word is he hasn't met with the president since the first week in june. what's the reality between their relationship. >> let me first point out that the admiral hit the nail on the head yesterday making the point that dr. fauci represents one view point in the administration and he looks at things from a public health stand point, whereas you have

other folks like dr. mccan who looks at the consequences of staying closed at psychologically what that does to society with drug overdues and sue suicides we've seen increase so the point of the task force is to be a whole of government to look at what is best for this country that includes dr. fauci's opinion, it includes admiral's and ultimately those conclusions are taken to the president. so dr. fauci's one member of a team but rest assured his viewpoint is represented and the information gets to the president through the task force steve: all right breaking news on friday was the fact that the president commuted the sentence of roger stone. over the weekend, robert mueller who headed up the investigation had an op-ed in the washington post and wrote this. the headline was robert mueller says roger stone remains a convicted felon, and rightly so and he said we made every decision in stones case as in all our cases based solely on the fact and the law and in indiana accordance with the law,

the women and men who conducted these investigations and prosecuted or s acted within the highest interest claims to the contrary are false. so, the point is that roger stone remains a convicted felon, according to robert mueller who wrote this. first of all do you think robert mueller actually wrote that op-ed and secondly your reaction to the body of the editorial. >> so the fact that robert mueller had to even write an op-ed is telling, the fact that he had to defend his taxpayer-wasted investigation on taxpayer dollars, millions and millions wasted on a russia hoax theory that found no collusion and even in the body of the op-ed, mueller said again, there was no collusion from the trump adminitration, so what did robert mueller have to do to justify his investigation of waste of taxpayer dollars and waste of america's time? he had to come up with process crimes which is exactly what was done in the case of roger stone. what about andrew mccabe who lied to federal investigators,

what about john brennan who lied before congress and james clap per. these individuals get away scott free because yes guess what adam schiff was actually right. he was wrong in the fact the two tiered justice system completely discriminates against the trump adminitration. jedediah: kayleigh a big story we were following this weekend continue to follow is involves a company called goya that many of us love so much and the ceo of that company got a lot of backlash for not only being at the white house with president trump but praising president trump. let's take a listen to what bob had to say in reaction to that backlash and then i want your reaction. >> it's oppression of speech. in 2012 eight years ago i was called by michelle obama who wanted to approach the african american community and hispanic community to eat more nutritionally. i went to the white house later and introduced in hispanic heritage month, president obama and so you're allowed to talk

good or to praise one president , but you're not allowed when i was called to be part of this commission to aid in economic educational prosperity and you make a positive comment, all of a sudden that's not acceptable, so you know, i'm not apologizing for saying and especially if you're called by the president of the united states you'll say no i'm sorry i'm busy, no thank you. i didn't say that to the obamas and i didn't say that to president trump. jedediah: your thought, kayleigh >> bob is the absolute embodiment of the american dream and a great man and it's very shameful what the left does. this is cancel culture. if you associate with this president if you associate with the republican party we've got to cancel you out of this society, demonize you in a very personal way. it's unfortunate but this is the kind of basket of deplorable politics that the left routinely

engages in. they will shame anyone who associates with this administration but the silent majority stand strong and it's shameful what they did. brian: so nancy pelosi famously to me anyway said a couple of days ago i can't be bothered by statues coming down when we're in the middle of a pandemic. we know a saint came down, a statue came down in san francisco. we also know ulysses s grant came down as lincoln has been de filed and now in boston to me an all-time low. last night a statue of the virgin mary was set on fire. i don't know if you had a chance to ask the president this but what's the reaction of where this has gone? frederick douglas was ripped off its pedestal in rochester, his hometown, and now you have the virgin mary what's the agenda? >> yeah, there is no agenda here, other than destruction, chaos and mob-like behavior and you mentioned nancy pelosi brian she was asked specifically what do you think about tearing down the statue rather than looting

and she said well they do what they do. so there's a 10 year penalty, criminal punishment for tearing down a statue and the president has stood firm on that 10 year punishment. you've had several individuals prosecuted at the department of justice, the fact that nancy pelosi thinks it's okay to rip down statues there's no ideology to these folks other than destruction and that's where the democrat party stands today. steve: joining us from the north lawn today, kayleigh thank you very much have a good week. >> thank you. appreciate it. steve: straight ahead, one sheriff has served his state for nearly 50 years but he's not going anywhere soon. polk county florida sheriff grady judd just got four more years in office he'll explain that coming up shortly. but in 11.5 minutes sandra smith takes over at the top of the hour. and here she is with a preview. >> sandra: good morning, steve doocey. the debate rages on over schools reopening a major teacher's union is facing off against the president over his hard line reopening approach.

plus, it's the president's call on how to hold the gop convention in august, so what will that look like? mercedes schlapp will join us live from the trump campaign and california governor newsom set to release 8,000 prisoners, a live report, we got governor mike huckabee, dr. mark siegel, and join my colleague john roberts and me for another busy news day as we begin a brand new week. ion with spray mopping to lock away debris and absorb wet messes, all in one disposable pad. just vacuum, spray mop, and toss. the shark vacmop, a complete clean all in one pad. "should i invest in stocks or not?"

meaning, "are stocks going to rise or not?", let's instead stop looking at the investments, which we can't control, and let's now look at our goals, which we can control. in other words, we only want to take as much risk as is necessary to achieve our goals. we need to protect the money that's there. and that says you should be investing in...

we need to protect the money that's there. i geh. common bird.e. ooh look! over here! something much better. there it is. peacock, included with xfinity x1. remarkable. fascinating. -very. it streams tons of your favorite shows and movies, plus the latest in sports news and... huh - run! the newest streaming app has landed on xfinity x1. now that's... simple. easy. awesome. xfinity x1 just got even better with peacock premium included at no additional cost. no strings attached. just say "peacock" into your voice remote to start watching today.

steve: welcome back, for nearly 50 years polk county florida sheriff grady judd has been un apologetic in his support for his citizen's safety and second amendment rights so it comes to no surprise that sheriff judd has just been re-elected and will lead now until 2024 and he joins us right now from down in florida sheriff good morning to you. >> good morning, how are you doing today? steve: i'm doing okay but i think you're doing better nobody wanted to run against you, so i saw on facebook you said you're stuck with me for four more years. >> well it's just an honor to be able to serve the people of p olk county. i love them, i trust them, our crime has gone down every year since i've been sheriff, so i'm really excited to tell you that it's one of the safest places in the nation to live, but it's

because of our community and the wonderful deputies that work with me. we all work hand-in-glove together and i was blessed to start here when i was 18 years old, one month out of high school, and i worked my way through the organization and then when my sheriff resigned or retired, i ran and was elected in 2004 and i've been able to serve ever since. steve: you have been. you know, one of the things about you that has made you very interesting and, you know, we've had you on this program a number of times is you are unapologetic about your approach to policing. you know, there are a lot of people who live in towns like new york city, chicago, got seattle, they got all sorts of problems with the police it seem s because they've got all these protests and things like this. what is your message to the people in those towns? >> well my message is quite simple. we're here to keep you safe to protect everyone. our crime is 1.6 crimes per

hundred per year. chicago those areas are running 15-20 crimes per hundred per year. so why should i want to do what they're doing in those big cities when i see their citizens being victimized, absolutely victimized? steve: yeah, ted cruz is going to introduce legislation to make local governments liable to private property owners if they deliberately withhold police protection. can you imagine picking up the phone and saying hey, i need help, and nobody comes? >> well that's happening in areas across the united states, but that's not happening in polk county, florida. when people call for help we send help and we look out for the victims of crimes and we put the surveillanceses in jail. you know, one things absolute. when you're suspects and your criminals are locked up in jail they're not breaking into your house, they're not robbing your stores and they're not murdering

you. novel concept, ha? it works here, and it will work across the nation, but at the end of the day, i don't understand a community that wants to do away with their police and i also don't understand with police officers that are not professional. steve: yeah, no kidding it's something that is a real head scratcher for a lot of people. sheriff grady judd, sir, thank you very much for joining us and good luck over the next four years. >> thank you very much, we'll continue to communicate with you and keep people safe. steve: i got a feeling you will. we'll be right back. no matter where you live, where you live has never mattered more. for over 100 years, realtors® have been providing expert guidance, helping people find new places to dream and thrive. when you're ready... look for the r.
