white house officials failed to find middle ground. the president then signaled that he would act unilaterally on issues of extra unemployment benefits and moratorium on evictions both part of care's act and now expire. mark meredith live in bridgewater new jersey where the president is at and we expect him to speak in the next hour and a half. hey, mark. mark: eric, good afternoon to you. in a few moments myself and the press corp will be getting advanced as president heads over to golf club. the president will be signing the executive orders to help stimulate economic and comes after back and forth all week between congress and the white house about how much money to spend to do just that. the president, he had more of an impromped news conference last night where he previewed what would be happening next and he specifically signaled out his desire a payroll tax cut, there have been a lot of questions,

though, about how something like that. >> it'll be retroactive to july 1st. it'll go to the end of the payroll tax. at the end of the year it may be extended. mark: it's possible that democrats will accuse of overstepping authority. >> meet news the middle. god sake, for the sake of america, meet us in the middle. don't way my say or no way. >> meantime the president insist the economy is bouncing back from pandemic lows and we have new economic data to give us an idea of exactly where things stand. the latest department releasing job's report yesterdaying

indicating 1.71 million jobs added last month and unemployment rate is going down now 10.2%. still double digits but the president says the worst does remain behind us. >> over the last months the united states has added 623,000 manufacturing jobs, remember, you need a magic wand to get manufacturing jobs and we are getting them even in a pandemic which is disappearing. it's going to disappear. mark: we will talk to the president and hearing from him in the next hour. the news conference at 3:30 the president had fundraisers tonight he will be traveling to so still busy day. we will keep you posted if anything else changes. eric. eric: of course, we will be covering it all in fox news channel so stay with us. see you in a bit. arthel. arthel: in the meantime anita, white house correspondent and associate for politico. all right a nitta, the president

has said already, listen, if can't get it done, i will. if, indeed, the president executive action reinstates enhanced unemployment benefits through the year, discards payroll tax and pauses student loan payments, this is good news in theory for millions of americans in need, but does the president have complete legal authority here? >> well, that's really the big question and i think that you'll see if he does do this that immediately he will be challenged in court. he -- you know, there are different opinions out there from legal experts on whether he can do it. there are some things that he can do, for example, he can halt taxes when he declares an emergency or disaster in the country, so he could do certain things. it really depends on how they worded it and how they've written that. you can bet they will be challenged in court right away. arthel: meanwhile, listen, the american people could not wait. i mean, can congress afford to

have waited, house democrats and, i mean, meaning anita would the lack of action hurt them politically and if so how so and both sides take the blow? >> it's like both sides are thinking that other side will get the blame. we will see in november or close to it who will get the blame. executive actions even if they are legal, they don't go near far enough. only through the end - of of the year. they wanted a trillion dollars to state and local dollars, this bill doesn't address that. now republicans feel not okay about it but they didn't want

some of those things. the question is will they go back to drawing board and try again for some of the other things. arthel: yeah, meanwhile democrats are saying that they were prepared to charge president trump if he does stop collecting payroll taxes because those taxes as you know fund social security. without those taxes the social security program is? -- in jeopardy. folks don't want to hear something tied up in court or could the president's executive action be implemented while this is tied up in court? in other words, could the people get their money while they wait to see how this plays out legally. >> right, i think democrats have said in the last few weeks, it's a gamble, this is a risk, if we couldn't get a certain bottomline number, certain amount of money for all of these things and, for example, on

unemployment they said we have weeks ago. republicans offered $400. it's a gamble for them to say they are basically walking away and let the president do this almost and didn't come to the table. now they would argue they had many, many offers. the republicans, the numbers were too high for them. a lot of republicans on capitol hill didn't want the package. they thought the government was too big and spending too much money on coronavirus. they should walk away and not do this. the republican caucus is split on this. there's gambles for both of them. arthel: as far as unemployment, republicans were $400 a week for 20 weeks or 70% of wage replacement with 600-dollar cap. listen, so the president, you know, it's good on him that he's looking out for the people, period. next paragraph, what's the political gain for the president

who's looking to get reelected in 86 days? >> well, he does feel like this is going to show that he's taking action where congress couldn't come up with something. now, remember it was actually his aides, mark meadows, chief of staff and the treasury secretary steven mnuchin were doing the negotiations negotiate democrats. he's hoping that this is showing him as a man of action and help people during coronavirus. as you well know polls have shown that people do not approve of how his administration has responded in the last few months. the polls showing him approval rating down. he's hoping that this shows that he can help people be the man of action. last night at press conference he didn't just mention executive orders, he talked about healthcare executive orders an other things he hopes to do. he's very much looking already final days of his term and show that he's working for them. arthel: you have to have the

other side, the democrats, you have the president not only the firefighter but arsonists. he's not only the plumber but he's throwing toilet paper down the toilet. by the way, people are hurting, so when congress reconvenes next week, i mean, like you already said, many other crucial items remain unfunded. are they going to get something done next week now that the president is forcing their hand? >> i feel like their hand was forced when unemployment benefits went out. both sides, republicans and democrats, until they are right up to the bottom line, you know, over the cliff, if you will, right on the deadline, they can't really get anything done. both have incentive to get

something done so that they can say, in november, look, we helped you out but hasn't worked. i don't know if they are going to. they -- the president has indicated he still wants them to negotiate from his point of view. i'm sure the democrats would, but -- but the questions they aren't just a little bit apart, they billions of dollars apart. so the question is how are they going to get there? how are they going to get to the middle ground? arthel: well, we are going to be live in about an hour or so when the president does sign those executive orders so everyone keep it right here on fox and we will have the actual event as well as analysis. anita kumar, always pleasure speaking with you, thank you so much. >> thanks. arthel: eric. ♪ ♪ eric: well, arthel, the presidential campaign trail now in tongue-in-cheek moment when joe biden saw peter doocy and taking a break from mostly

cycle that had a very, very crowded field. we are also hearing that hillary clinton and bill clinton are both going to be there and so will john kasich, the ohio governor who, of course, served as a republican in columbus and also as a member of congress in washington, d.c. the dnc is telling us that the convention is going to be focused on video-story telling and it's going to be 4 nights in a row with two hours of programming each. we also heard a while back that they had hired a producer who has worked on the super bowl half-time show and tony awards and so we should expect a lot of production value. we just don't know exactly what it's going to look like and we don't know where the grand finale will be staged, that would be biden's acceptance of nomination and we just know it's in delaware. eric: you're right, you have to be 35 to be vice president of the united states. a couple more years, i guess.

aishah: if parents do have anxiety or concerns they will have several opportunities to get those out. the governor says it will fall on the school districts, parents, teachers and staff on exactly how the schools will reopen. listen. governor: in person, hybrid, outdoor education, remote education, a blend, half day, quarter day, third day, that is all up to their discretion. aishah: so the state did release guidelines for these districts including temperature check for students and staff at home. random check before they walk into the building, mask-wearing, they have to do that, covid testing for staff at least once a month and 14-day quarantine for any close contact of a confirmed case. here is what is interesting, take a look at the map. of the top 15 largest school districts in america, new york

city is the only one planning on reopening in some capacity. the others are starting totally virtual and the state is warning the school districts, arthel, you know, if there are uncontrolled outbreaks or recurring outbreaks, they will shut down those schools, arthel. arthel: i'm sure governor cuomo will keep an eye on that because he's serious when he says stuffe that. the picture of a crowded hallway during changes of classes. many students in the photo without masks and now her suspension has been overturned. tell us more about that. aishah: let's show you the picture, hannah said she wanted to keep people safe and didn't want to shut down the school at all when she posted picture of dozens of students crowded hallway and not wearing masks.

superintendent says they are not wearing masks because they can't enforce it. the story has gone viral and inspire other kids to speak up as the schools reopen, listen. >> your school, your county is being unsafe or not following the right guidelines, then say something. it will only do good. you won't get in trouble and if you do get in trouble, it's good trouble. aishah: good trouble, arthel. now, of course, we know that kids and cell phones go hand in hand, so you could probably expect we are going to see more of those images in the coming weeks, arthel. arthel: i mean, but they can enforce dress codes in schools. just saying. aishah: hey, why don't we have masks like dress codes. the school not choosing to have a mandate.

died of covid-19. claudia cowan in california, where are the worst hot spots now? reporter: there are troubling projections of how fast this virus could spread if things don't change. take a look at cities like brownsville, texas with nearly 16,000 cases. based on current trajectory show figure could double, in laredo it would take 19 days for 7500 cases there to become 15,000 looking at florida in about 3 weeks, ocala's case load double and knoxville, tennessee could tops 6,000 cases by early september. there are signs of hope, the 7-day average is 55,510, that's

down for 9 days in a row and california, texas and the states on the map in green are reporting a decline in cases and hospitalizations while 11 red states on the map considered new hot spots including colorado, mississippi and ohio, the 7-day average for deaths stands at 1,043, the trend indicating more than a thousand people succumbing to coronavirus. a new forecast predicts that the number of deaths in the united states could reach 300,000 by december, that's nearly double what it is now but the model predicts dramatically fewer deaths if people wear masks, arthel. arthel: in the meantime without the masks the red and green that you showed up on map, claudia, shows how the virus will ping-pong if we don't do it right and together. meanwhile there's a new rule in washington, the state of washington and apparently it's a sign of showing how careful some

news today in the college football realm and it started the other day with connecticut becoming the first of the 130 top-tier schools to cancel its season and it's starting to feel a little bit like march did when the march madness got canceled and rolled through the day starting with the ivy league coming out of new england, the first thing. it usually start in places where these games are maybe not as deeply felt and so -- and it feels like it's roll ago cross the -- rolling across the land now. eric: i remember back in march, people -- that made people sit up and really take notice. what will it take and how does it rule out who is still playing what happened do you think will happen? >> well, i think thing that's so jarring about this unlike the nba which seems to have successfully, you know, forged a bubble, a sport that takes place

in such a sprawling manner on campuses, you know, it's impossible to make a bubble with that and that's why -- you know, all along i've sort of felt like this is, this is where it was going sadly enough. i think this is the sport in the u.s. that is the most deeply felt. it's the sport that we have that most rivals, most often rivals, the soccer stadiums of europe, south america and africa for passion and noise. it's hard to give up. people build their lives and it, people build social lives and rhythms, if you have been to places around, madison, la, all around, it's -- it's an experience a singular experience, so i think eventually the places that have -- such as big ten and fcc that have modified schedules to

conference only, i even think that's hard to do in a sport, you know, of such contact and a sport of such social life as college football. eric: it is such a unique american experience tailgating, following your favorite college and, i mean, it's in your blood, i mean, in your veins, some of the players in the west gathered together called mountain west united and they issued a play basically saying, quote, it is difficult to believe that 17 and 22-college students effectively social distance to travel state to state for 10 weeks. this is evident in reports released by several schools that have had increase in covid-19 following workouts, covid-19 has dramatically changed the world, that includes us. they want testing every week, you know, for the players,

testing 72 hours before a game, testing for coaches and managers, anyone that comes in contact with them as well as cdc level guidelines, cleaning the stadium, do you think they can pull this off or are we going to be seeing the plug being pulled on college football this season? >> well, one one of the unexpecd by-products of this whole sprawling disaster has been that, you know, college football players and college athletes have always had sort of this untapped reservoir of power and it really came to light at missouri, at the university of missouri when the football team came up with campus protests and sort of realized the power and i'm just thinking with, you know, with the players, you know, realizing that here unexpectedly here comes this thing where we have a chance to, you know, not a chance to use it but where we see fit to use it

and i think that's going to play heavily into what seems like a rolling shutdown of the fall. eric: they certainly do have that power as you pointed out. they're concerned, they are making their voices known. we will see how it rolls out and what happens. chuck of the washington post following college sports, chuck, good to see you. >> thank you. eric: arthel. arthel: eric, thank you. doctors and nurses coast to coast still sounding the alarm, eric, over shortage of masks and other personal protective equipment. ahead iraq war veteran turned ceo doing his part to get ppe where it is most needed. ♪
