shot up by another rival gang. we are so riddled with gangs, we are trying to fire 60 rounds, 14 people shot. we haven't hit the map before with this issue but we have to now. todd: you can't even make it up. your mayor doesn't know what to do in this situation. let's take a listen. >> unlike what happened in portland, what we will receive his resources that are going to plug into existing federal agencies that we work with on a regular basis to manage and suppress violent crime in our cities. rob: you also have a statement from white foot, a tweet under no circumstances will i allow donald trump's troops to

terrorize our residents. what do you make of that is leader of chicago? >> for the northwest side of chicago, i am pushing that. our job is to work with that. we got to get past this problem. we are recovering -- >> what do you think she believes? what is she going to allow to happen? >> i think this is putting us over the edge as of last night. we don't have the manpower for it, we are so stretched thin and embedded antagonists in these protests, we don't have enough resources for all the city as well as the homicide rate which is off the charts. something has to happen. she is looking for the president to help. i am asking the president to help us out but i feel in

illinois a lot of people don't want to do that, if he brings down the numbers of crime it will make him look like a success and that is not what they want to do. it is not about people, it is about elections. >> let's listen to what david brown has to say on violent mobs, talking about ordering officers to wear protective gear. >> peaceful demonstrations have been hijacked. i have ordered all of our officers to wear any and all protective gear. jillian: can you remember another time you heard that message? >> we have had protests throughout the city called the teenage mutant ninja gear, it is

a smart move by the superintendent, terror groups embedded in these protesters and this will keep going on for the next four months to disrupt and cause chaos and anarchy. the superintendent, police officers and first responders, a good move to make it goes back to riot days. a constant recurring problem. todd: hope you can get this straight in chicago, these stories are not pretty. jillian: 17 after the are. he virgin mary statue vandalized twice in one week, catholic leaders say enough is enough. one of those leaders joins us live with a message for state and local politicians. todd: banning the popular apps from all popular devices. 49... 50!

jillian: the house is expected to vote on a bill to remove confederate statues from the capital building. there are 11 of those monuments on the hill, they were removed last month. the vote comes after the house passed the $740 billion defense bill which involves removing confederate names for military bases and heads to the senate, donald trump has threatened to veto the bill. house lawmakers it gives speeches on the floor honoring congressman in storage icon john lewis. the democratic caucus and house gop conference will give members time to speak about the georgia democrat from 5:00 to 8:00 eastern time. the house remembered lewis's legacy with a moment of silence on monday.

lewis died friday night after battling cancer. he was 80 years old. todd: two statues of the virgin mary have been desecrated in austin and it is two of many attacks on christian monuments happening across the country so why isn't anybody talking about this. when catholic leader is. joining me is cj doyle. we appreciate it. tell me why you think this is happening in the first place. >> we seen in the last 12 days ten attacks involving vandalism directed against catholic churches and classical statues nationwide and i think we are arriving at a point we can't dismiss these as random incidents perpetrated in isolation by disturbed individuals. it seems the number, the timing

and frequency of these attacks are just catholic churches and religious iconography are being deliberately targeted in a campaign of culture size being perpetrated by the same left-wing extremists, cultural revolutionaries that are committing mayhem against public monuments across the country. you don't want to jump to conclusions but there is an increasing pattern that needs to be addressed. todd: you saw trashcan overstated, a bird virgin mary, it is all across the country, not just in boston, it is all over the place, statues of jesus christ, virgin mary, it is said to see. what do you think needs to be done to prevent this? we need harsher penalties. >> public authorities, governors or mayors or district attorneys need to the vote law enforcement

resources to identify, track down, arrest, prosecute and incarcerate the offenders but there is another one, people in the catholic community particularly the leadership of the church have to demand accountability from political leadership and educate the catholic population is to the extent of this and increase of this and seriousness of this in danger of this. we have had a 400% increase in these incidents in massachusetts in the last 4 year period, there have been 19 church vandalism is in massachusetts since 2016, almost a 500% before from 2012-2016, almost a 500% increase in the incidence in massachusetts. rhode island has been a target of a number of these and we've seen all these incidents with

revolutions going around the country and when we speak about the last 12 days there were a number of incidents in may and june. san gabriel, california, one of the historic missions, we saw decapitations of a statue of our lord in florida and decapitation of a stage of the blessed mother in chattanooga, tennessee. >> we just saw the map and it is unbelievable to see but as a catholic, you see decapitation of a statue of jesus christ what does that make you feel, can't imagine what that feels like. >> it is appalling, it is sacrilegious. in the case of these to capitation this a garbage can being placed over the head of the virgin mary, a calculated and mean-spirited expression of contempt for the catholic faith, for our lady in the catholic population.

>> hurtful and just plain wrong, thanks for coming on and telling us about this and we will see how it develops, hopefully it stops because it is very offensive to a lot of people. >> he crimes and civil rights violations and need to be treated as such. shannon: it is 26 minutes after the hour, joe biden slamming donald trump over the economy during the pandemic. >> this man simply doesn't understand, he can deal with an economic crisis without serving and saving and solving the public health crisis. shannon: will the $75 billion economic plan be better? kristin tate says we can't afford that. her message when she joins us live next. guys, it's that time... and nothin's happenin'.

shannon: back with fox news alert, bullets flying through the air at a chicago funeral

sending 14 people to the hospital. todd: mayor lori lightfoot agreeing to work with federal agencies to fight violence. >> what we receive his resources to federal agencies. todd: chad will says into law and order is destroyed -- restored, they have the right to secure cities. jillian: cities like chicago are past the point of no return, some help is needed for those who lost the feeling of feeling safe in their own homes. >> it is chicago, one of the major american cities, you're

worried about donald trump -- what is left to break? he is cleaning the place up. send federal agents in there and the right to public safety. they deserve it. jillian: lori lightfoot will not let federal troops into the city and joined 5 other mayors in condemning federal intervention. >> a church and other suing four federal agencies for violent protests, homeland security, cvp, federal protective service and us marshals are named in the suit, he claims federal agents have violated protesters rights to secure their badges and gone wild policing nightly demonstrations.

jillian: a judge lifts a gag order on former police officers charged in george floyd's death, the minnesota judge expect their attorneys to follow the rules of disclosing information. lawyers for the acceptance filed a motion to lift the gag order earlier this month, saying they have the right to defend themselves from negative publicity. a man says he's blessed to be alive after this terrifying crash is caught on camera. that is frightening, video showing a tractor-trailer rolling over, smashing into a truck on the canadian highway, no one was seriously hurt. the tractor-trailer was driving too fast. todd: a glitch may have exposed a blacklist of conservative news outlets, several conservative sites blocked from google searches yesterday. mike wacker says the glitch revealed a blacklist the disproportionately targets conservatives. google denied interfering with search results. the doj charges two chinese

hackers accused of targeting research on a coronavirus vaccine. and and doing this about stolen research. >> the department of justice drew a line in the sand. we will hold you accountable. and they indictment did not say if there was any covert 19 research data. the president signing order barring illegal immigrants from being counted in the u.s. census. the amount of people counted in the census determines how many are allocated to each state. they slammed the move to diminish political power and decrease federal funding.

>>, the $775 billion proposal, he did not mince words slamming donald trump for failing to get the economy up and running. >> he can deal with the economic crisis without serving and saving and solving the public health crisis. he has quit on you. he has quit on this country. >> will biden's plan dig us out of the economic hole created by coronavirus? kristin tate joined me now. good to see you. >> great to be with you. jillian: do you think this plan will dig us out of the whole? >> from healthcare to education, constantly ballooning, and every

day lives, americans, numerous polls say the majority of americans do not trust the federal government to solve problem. joe biden has been clear about the desire to grow government and i spending, $26 trillion in debt, $775 billion plan the biden administration - a preschool for all tight plan that is included in this proposal would bust the budget and create armies of government workers. the top-down programs we need to create before we realize government is not the solution to economic woes. these programs just make things worse and it is nearly impossible to get rid of these programs or eliminate them once you create them. governmentally grows, more government is always the solution.

joe biden does not understand the private sector, never created a private-sector job in his life. jillian: when it comes to caregiving, low and middle income tax credits for childcare, limited medicaid waiting lists for community services. as we mentioned, $775 billion, interestingly enough if you look at the fox news poll joe biden is leading donald trump on the economy by one percentage point, that changes, other polls have different numbers. the problem and frustration, joe biden does not take a lot of questions when he does the speeches and a lot of americans do have questions, do a better job. >> he should be answering questions but looks like he will try to hide in his basement

until election day but i expect polls to shift as the economy bounces back. we don't boost the economy with massive spending bills and tax hikes. get the government out of the way and that the private-sector do what it does best. if we want people to have money for childcare, want them to get better jobs we should reopen schools and the economy as quickly as possible. in a democratic primary joe biden was touted as a moderate. he is not a moderate at all. his healthcare plan is obama care on steroids, he wants to spend $2 trillion on removal energy infrastructure. his party is being held hostage by radical left-wingers and no indication he's willing to push back on those radicals. jillian: the overview of the proposal costs to us manufacturing of $700 billion to create infrastructure and energy, $2 trillion in education and caregiving, $775 billion.

that is not a moderate plan. how far left will he go in the next few months? >> i think joe biden might be a trojan horse for radical leftism. we won't know how true that is until and unless he gets in office. his running mate will see just how far left he is willing to go but voters need to remember our economy was so hot, record low unemployment for latinos for black americans, great strides for women in the workplace, can and will get back. covid-19 is a shock to the economy and great economic times again. jillian: thank you very much, appreciate it. charges against the arms couple defending their home in st. louis.

>> a prosecutor now in kim gardner. >> he works on tax dollars and taken it upon herself not to protect law-abiding citizens. jillian: francie higgs says the lies on the couple side. she joined us to explain next. todd: the end of long days this year. how would you describe 2020 if it was an actual drink? hilarious responses on twitter coming up.

>> thousands arrested in israel during protests against the handling of the pandemic. jillian: they are calling for his resignation. the country as foreign minister pushes for the military to intervene.

>> reporter: thousands overnight protested in jerusalem over handling of the coronavirus outbreak, these demonstrators, benjamin netanyahu, some clashed with police, 34 arrests were made with charges of disruption of public order and one group called on the prime minister's to step down as another group of people was made up of restaurant owners demanding clear guidance during the covid-19 pandemic, 20% are unemployed currently as a result of the economic fallout of the coronavirus continue netanyahu was criticized for not coming up with a better plan to help those who are out of a job. they beat down the first wave of coronavirus before reopening schools and businesses. into a farmer second wave that saw israel get a total of 200,000 coronavirus cases since the outbreak first started with

politics being put over public health, defense minister and alternate prime minister wants the military to take over the coronavirus response. the politics of been so bad in israel there are ongoing debates for weeks about whether or not to keep pools and restaurants open. one day a decision will be made in the next day the decision is reversed, the government is looking to appoint a coronavirus bar but it is not clear what the scope of authority would be. >> taking a stand for the second amendment for the family was couple now called for defending their home from protesters was all-americans have the right to do that. >> the charges being brought here amount to nothing but a political prosecution. you have a prosecutor in kim gardner targeting citizens, law-abiding citizens for exercising their fundamental right of self defense. i felt enough was enough so i am

stepping in. >> a very legal basis for these charges? joining us with insight on this, thanks for coming on, we appreciate it. >> when you look at the video you have to put it in context. you heard the second attorney kim gardner said won't happen in st. louis, but what she doesn't seem to be taking into context is the fact that over the previous few days and a couple weeks you had protesters who started off by burning down a police station and the police doing nothing and watching it live on television so you have to wonder what the mccloskeys were thinking when this peaceful protest or mob broke down a private gate and started shouting at them. hard to see how a normal person can understand why they would feel threatened. >> is this political?

>> it does seem political, under the castle doctrine in missouri i don't think this is a good prosecution, the capital doctrine in the state of missouri is more expansive than in many other states and allows a person who feels an imminent threat to use deadly force in defense of property so the many people trespass on their property, they felt an imminent threat, they could have used deadly force and did not do so. they simply held their weapons to make clear to the crowd that they would defend themselves if they had to. todd: let's hear about a prosecutor who brought the charges. >> the circuit attorney is an elected official who works on our tax dollars and taken it upon herself not to protect law-abiding citizens against criminals but to protect criminals against law-abiding citizens.

todd: he is angry about this and it all changed when everybody saw that gate busted down. that is illegal entry. i don't know how this is a case, how you would take this to court. >> it is such a great point. every prosecutor has a duty to lick an affirmative defenses, doctrines and laws in their state. the castle doctrine is very clear in missouri, clear it applies here and i think we can see the political nature of this in kim gardner's recent statement that she would be happy to see the mc classes go to the diversion program, she's not asking for jail time. if she thought they were truly a threat and deserve to be prosecuted she wouldn't be talking about a diverse and program. jillian: how do you see this ending? >> the state attorney general

has asked the judge to dismiss the case. it's not clear to me he has the authority to make that happen but we might see litigation very soon on the castle doctrine. we will see briefs filed where the case should be dismissed because it isn't well-funded because the mccloskeys have the castle doctrine is a defense. todd: time could be running out for tick-tock. capitol hill inching closer to banning the apps from all federal devices. ♪ >> some thing about this song makes me happy. a friend's reunion in the works? that story coming up next. ♪ i will be there for you ♪ i will be there for you

jillian: the clock is ticking on tick-tock, to ban the apps from government devices. rob: carley shimkus is here with the latest on that. >> reporter: an amendment that would bar federal employees from downloading tick-tock to the government devices was successfully attached to the defense spending bill that passed in the house yesterday as mike pompeo says the united states is considering banning the apps in the country with privacy concerns, because it is the chinese owned apps. a company spokesperson telling the hill the creative expression
