demonstration. president trump is scheduled to between atlanta and macon, visit kenosha, wisconsin, on tuesday after the police netting 39 children saved or shooting of jacob blake. identified, and nine perps welcome, everyone, tough news behind bars on serious charges, day today as we hear of these police shootings, these including sex trafficking of a child. just let that soak in just a policemen and women putting that uniform on every day and getting out there to save people's lives moment. then we have operation safety and potentially falling in net in cleveland, there children harm's way in a really serious as in georgia as young as 13 manner right now. president trump is headed to kenosha, as we said, on tuesday, years old. one found all the way in miami. and that is important because the rnc focused pretty heavily i hope you're sitting down on the violence that has erupted because just last year, 421,000- in these cities, so important to make a presence there. one of the things that has come 421,000-plus children went up a lot the topic of the missing. here's the problem. many of them are described as national guard. the presence of the national guard in a lot of places, some runaways. the reality is about one in four feel that it's too much. are being sex trafficked. i remember my first sex others justifying that presence saying, listen, federal trafficking investigation and buildings have been violated, jury trial. the cops sent me into the room, people who live in these renales we finally found a little 13 are struggling for their -- 13-year-old girl, i said, where regions are struggling for their is she, i don't see her, they own safety, and often times have her trussed up like a 35 local law enforcement is not able to handle it because it 35-year-old woman. i didn't even recognize her, and often doesn't have the backing

it's all under the radar. of political leadership. president trump weighed in, we we see these children at shopping malls, in hotels, in know that the national guard was parking lots. dispatched in kenosha this week, they're there. they're being sex trafficked. and he talked about about the will: it's almost as written out distinction between kenosha and of an hbo series. portland with respect to a presence of and lack thereof of nancy, when i see something like is going on in georgia and in the national guard. listen to what he had to say in texas the. ohio, are these individual >> we've had tremendous is instances that the authorities are all cracking down on at the success, as you know. same time, or is this a criminal we were finally able to get the go ahead from the local conspiracy, a single entity authorities to send in the national guard. that's trafficking these kids? within a few minutes of the guard, everybody cleared out, >> well, no, no, no. it's not a single entity. and it became safe. we can fix portland in, i would very often it could be one pimp. but then there are other times say, 45 minutes. and the people in portland that multiple, typically men, should protest, because the mayor doesn't know what he's doing. if he would call or if he would but women, too, if you look at the defendants in this case, some of them are women, work is can or if the governor would together, they collaborate on getting children, putting them is ask, we would have the in houses and keeping them there national guard in there in a very short period of time, and beating them into submission, that would be cleaned out in a not letting them leave. matter of literally minutes, and you'd have a safe portland. so you'll see several pimps at pete: speaking of portland are, once with child sex traffickers or just one. guys, it's important to note it's not a nationwide th.ng

last night there were about 600 will: nancy, i want to get your pro-trump, pro-police protesters opinion on this story. that drove through the city, care a rah vanned -- caravaned lacey peterson in pain after scot peterson, his death sentence is overturned. i wanted to get your reaction. through the city to show support for the national guard, the >> well, many of us have still police, the president. stayed in touch very close touch we have early reports the indication that it was a pro-trump supporter that was shot in portland. of the scot peterson guilty again, as we get more details verdict and i can tell you that lacey's family is in such pain, and we confirm that, we'll bring that to you, but early social devastated. media accounts show that is remember, sharon roach, lacey's likely the case. we'll see how that breaks out. the president's right, of mother, went out and tried to course, to point out that when keep the death penalty. the national guard shows up, as the majority in california voted not to repeal it, but governor it has in certain places that got out of control, there's a level of respect, a level of newsom has put a moratorium on professionalism. it's clearly an upping of the it. that means scot peterson will soon be in general population. right now he's still? ante to say we will not allow this to happen anymore. san quentin until either side decides to appeal this ruling. and citizens clamor for it in we'll see if that happens. places like portland where many people are arguing the cost they're having to protect of retrying the penalty phase on themselves. scot peterson in the death of well, joe biden, one to slowly his wife, lacey, eight months chime in often on any current pregnant, an unborn son connor, event, has a very different view

on the national guard. i think they may go forward with listen to what the man who wants a tr.il to be the commander in chief will: nancy grace this morning, i'm still stunned, as you said, said about the deployment of the national guard in these 420,000 kids, two big operations scenarios yesterday. >> but i promise you as in georgia and -- just stunning. president i'll never put you in by the way, you can watch "crime the middle of politics, personal stories with nancy grace" now venn debt the thats -- available on fox nation again. coming up, the nfl is wading vendettas, i'll never use the into politics. military as a prop or a private it's reportedly planning social militia to violate the rights of justice initiatives during week fellow citizens. that's not law and order. you don't deserve that. 1. football legend herschel walker is here with his take, and pete: you know, i personally are that's next. ♪ have been deployed to washington, d.c. as a national we're carvana, the company who invented guard member in the middle of riots. to dechair that a political prop, especially for the people who want to peacefully protest or just want business to operate and for joe biden, joe biden, one, he's been a part of the foreign policy establishment sending troopses to the middle east for decades, a lot of people feel like, hey, the national guard is to be used to

protect our community. will: i think it's painting the difference between protest and violence. i think it's always dangerous to draw big, broad narratives. details are still coming in on the nature of the shootings across this country when it comes to law enforcement, but it seems clear that we're experiencing one of two things, either an escalation in political violence across this country or the continued decline of safety on american streets across metropolitan areas in america. either way i don't know that the national guard, when it comes to the american people, is seen as a prop more so than a savior. jedediah, i believe joe biden is simply drawing a narrative, and it's now out of touch with the american people. jedediah: yeah. it's certainly not seen as a prop by people who live in these cities and are struggling for their own safety and look out their windows and feel concerned about taking a walk to the

grocery store. and i understand, you know, the idea of tanks rolling through your city, this is not ideal. none of this is ideal. these riots are not ideal. what's going on in the world is getting scary. i do feel if the national guard is going to be deployed to a region, it has to be with the support of local political leadership or it does turn into a political talking point. the unfortunate reality is a lot of these cities may need that assistance, but if there's not a cohesive effort locally to say we welcome you, out becomes a political talking point. there's another topic we have to get to this morning that is causing a lot of conversation, democratic uproar op on capitol hill after director of national intelligence john ratcliffe says he will scale back in-person election security briefings to congress. insisting the move cut down on leaks. lauren blanchard is live in d.c. with the fallout. what's the late est? >> reporter: good morning, lawmakers on capitol hill

blake's lawyer is insisting blake posed no imminent threat to officers. here to break down the facts, fox news contributor and former d.c. homicide detective ted williams. with me today. i want to do as much as we can in the short time we have together to break down the elements, the facts of this case. anyone who's seen the viral video and protesting on the street have come to the conclusion that there was an obvious injustice. not just a tragic incident, but an injustice. let's start with this, what is the standard, ted, to establish there was an unjustified use of force when it comes to law enforcement? >> well, the circumstances of the case, will. and in this case of the shooting here of jacob blake, there are more questions than answers. let me take you back to august 23rd at around 5:00 in the afternoon.

the dispatcher with the kenosha, wisconsin, police department that said jacob blake was at that location, at her residence and that he should not have been there. and at that stage, the dispatcher sent several police officers. one of those police officers was rushton. they arrived on the scene. it is not known at this stage as to whether they knew that there was a warrant for a sexual assault against mr. blake, but at some stage or another they attempted to arrest mr. blake. mr. blake resisted that arrest. and as a result of resisting, two officers fired their tasers. it had no effect. at that stage mr. blake moved from the rear of the passenger

side of the vehicle, around to the front. now, at that stage the police officers have their guns on mr. blake. mr. blake at that stage opens the car door on the driver's side of the vehicle and lean in. shoots him sevenis shirt, and times. and shortly thereafter, mr. blake is taken to the hospital. and those are the facts as we know of the case. will: i appreciate you laying out those facts. now, ted, if we can, let's ask ourselves which of those facts this was a justified use of force. i believe the standard is would a reasonable officer have feared for his life in that situation. is that the standard we would use to determine whether or not it was a justified use of force? >> well, that's the absolute standard. will: okay. >> and this is the key to part of the case. there are allegations that mr. blake had a knife. now, there's a question as to

whether he had the knife on him, but it is also alleged that a knife was found on the driver's side, on the floorboard there. so when you talk about what a reasonable officer would do, that is the big question. we don't know, we've not that heard from the officer -- will: right. >> and if he's saying he was in fear of his life, he was justified. all these facts you lay out, he was tased not once, but twice, he put the officers in a head lock, these all seem to contribute to that standard, answering the question. but i have to ask you this, ted, what about the fact that jacob officer? he was reaching in, yes, but the shots were in his back. does that suggest that a reasonable officer should not are feared for his life? >> no, no. you can not use that just

because his back was turned to the officer. and it's not so much the reasonable officer standard, it's what the reasonable officer would have seen under the circumstances. will: right. >> if he believed -- will: ted, i'm up against a hard break. thank you so much, ted williams. more "fox & friends" next. i should get a quote. do it. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪

a bernie supporter switched to being a trump supporter. at the time i didn't think anything of it because we weren't being fed all of the false narratives from the media as we are now, and so we just kind of went on. but eventually the talking points started being fed to us, and i fell for them hook, line and sinker and began to believe that my husband was some monster. but eventually after probably 18 months of us in some very awkward conversation, a little awkward conversarjn.ph?lwxfgdcye began to make me open my eyes to perhaps not everything is as it seems. and in june of 2018, i had found brandon's original viral walk immediately felt a connection because one of the biggest concerns i had is i had

accept open debate, refusal to discusswñ?ñ? issues, assistancen bullying people into submission something that's taking place throughout the country not just on campuses. when i went public with my situation, i received hundreds and hundreds of e-mails from people around the country who said they're afraid to say to say anything on social media because they fear losing their job. so what has happened and started on campuses with this suppression of free debate had now moved into the greater culture. so i felt it was really important to bring people together who could talk about what they went through and some of the strategies they used to push back against it. jedediah: so, joshua, one of the things i think people don't realize the education tensive pushback that -- extensive pushback that individuals like yourself get from within a campus, within administrations. tell us what happened. you wrote this letter, what happened to you on your day-to-day life at school after

writing this? >> well, you know, at school in a way everything was just fine because, as professor jacobson received hundreds, indeed, thousands of messages from people around the country that were supportive. so there was this tremendous split between what i was getting and continue to get from the outside world and what i received and am continuing to effectively locally it's been silence are. there are occasional moves to suppress one or another thing that i might do, but fundamentally i'm being given the silent treatment. i suppose that's better than actually having people in front of my house picketing, but it's not attractive, and it has made day-to-day life very difficult. but i'm buoyed by all of the support that i'm receiving from

the outside world. jedediah: jason, people like yourselves are terrifying in academia because you stand out, and you force college students to actually think for themselves. so what do you say to parents out there who are feeling like college is done, it's over, that they cannot send their kids to school anymore to learn how to i think, instead they're being told what to think and there's no hope? for college life? get more involved with their students' education. i think they need to start defunding the universities. they need to stop trusting the administrative bodies who are complicit in what's going on on campus. their senators and congressmen. i have lobbied on capitol hill about this to end list the help of the federal government in defunding our universities which have become national security threats because they're no longer bastions of learning. they have become national terror

sites where they indoctrinate our young people to become enemies of the state by preaching a horrible, horrible hatred of america, hatred of capitalism, hatred of reason, hatred of individualism. and american parents knew the extent to which their children were not being taught, but being brainwashed to hate this great republic of ours, this would take -- they would take, i think, a greater role in their children's education and not entrust it so much into the hands of these detractors of parents actually make a difference? the concern is is it's not going to matter anyway. have cow yo seen any impact -- have you seen any impact of parents expressing concern and that actually leading to results? >> well, i think the first step that parents need to take the your child goes to.

parents will spend enormous amounts of time looking into the educational programming, the extracurricular programming, the sports facilities, but they pay almost no attention to what is the intellectual life on campus. some campuses are cheerily worse than other -- clearly worse than others, and you can't just happened your children off to people who don't necessarily have the country's best interests in mind. i think it's extremely important that parents get involved and alumni get involved. schools are very sensitive to donors or federal funding, and i think there needs to be outside pressure brought to bear. not to push one viewpoint, but to insist they have an open intellectual environment where professors and students who speak out and are not in the majority opinion are not targeted, harassed and driven into submission. we need that outside pressure to create that sort of environment. jedediah: yep. well, tonight all these

will: boozman was just 43 years old. so what are some of the warning sign of colon cancer? let's is ask dr. raj who is a reports are he was battling this disease for some four years, but for anyone watching, what are the early warning signs that you could potentially be dealing with colon cancer? >> well, it is tragic news particularly because he was so young, and this is why it is so important for people to understand the warning signs but also realize that in many cases colon cancer doesn't present with any symptoms which is why screening is very, very important. but the symptoms to look out for, any change in your bowel habits, so that could be constipation or diarrhea, seeing any blood, any rectal bleeding, abdominal pain, weight loss, fatigue, bloating, but again, this usually happens when the

colon cancer a little bit more advanced which is why you should really speak to your doctor about when the appropriate age to get screened. in fact, in 2018 the american we are seeing an increase in younger people getting colon cancer which is, tragically, what we saw in this case. pete: do we have any idea why we're seeing more young people getting colon cancer, why that number was dropped? >> it's a great question, and it's not entirely clear. been pretty good about screening people over the age of 50, we're catching them earlier before they develop colon cancer, and that's why you're seeing it in younger people. but i don't think that accounts for all of it. part of it may be due to the diet that all of us are eating, more processed foods. but regardless, it is very clear that in the last couple decades we've seen an increase for people under the age of 50 which is why it's important to get screened earlier. will: doctor, please forgive i my ignorance on this, but among

the cancers out this, where is colon cancer in terms of mortality? i think it's somewhat surprising that he had this for four years, continued to work at a high level. is colon cancer a highly treatable cancer? >> it's a wonderful question that i'm glad you raised because it e brings up a very important point. that's why we do the screening, we want to catch them early -- you have a very high survival rate. however, when it's caught later, it's the second leading cause of cancer death for men and women overall, it's the third leading cause of cancer. to this is a very common cancer. for an american you have a 1 in 20 chance of developing colon cancer, certainly something you need to keep in mind and talk to your doctor about. african-americans are at an even higher risk of colon cancer and

meetings or in the weight room or in the classroom. and so it's everything from wearing their mask to having their mask on, to, you know, once they come off the fielding being social distancinged -- distanced on the sideline. we're constantly working on that so we can continue to play. pete: someone may not have told their opponent that their d-back should not be social distancing from your wide receiver is.

you know, when we're not competing that we are 6 feet apart, that we do have our masks pulled up. we're trying to concentrate on those kind of things, and i think that's important. if we'll follow the protocol to do it right and then make sure that we're getting an opportunity to stay safe -- will: really quickly -- >> -- the more we do it, hopefully the numbers continue to go down, then, you know, everybody will get to -- will: coach, we gotta run, but really quickly, i have to know, did any players wear a mask during the game? was that a choice many players made? >> no. it's not just because of the hard to breathe while you're playing. will: sure. >> we have shieldsen on our face masks on the bottom also. will: coach, thank you so much. good luck with your season. thank you. >> thank you, guys. will: "fox & friends" is focusing on education in america all morning long.

[ laughter ] >> speaking of working class, that's new york city and the politicians are working very hard to make it an unlivable city. will was talking about the road he tried to drive on this morning to come in. it was a mess. but -- so we know where new york

is going to go, likely, we see on the he'll he ex cycle. where will -- election cycle. where will states like minnesota -- it was won barely by hillary clinton in 2016. if minnesota's a swing state, then almost every state on the map is in play. joe biden has a democrat problem in that backyard of minnesota. six democrat mayors in the state of minnesota have now signed a letter backing -- not joe biden, but president trump. these are mayors like cities like virginia, harbor, cities in the iron range of minnesota, working class people who used to be democrats and now the democrat mayors say we're for trump. here's a portion of the letter of the minnesota democrat mayors. they say like many in our region we have voted for democrats over many decades. we have watched as jobs left not only the iron range but our country. by putting tariffs on our products and supporting bad trade deals. politicians like joe biden did nothing to help the working

class. in this election, there's a lot at stake. the biggest risk is our jobs, our economy and our way of life. president trump delivered the best economy in our nation's history and president trump will deliver for us again. jed, i've got to believe joe biden apparently is headed to minnesota when he gets out of his basement after labor day. this has got to be worrisome, democrats switching to your opponent. >> i don't know if it's worrisome to him. he seems to be in denial about a lot of things, we talked about the fact that he's not going to hit the ground in some of these key states until after labor day. not sure what he's waiting for. crossover politics is one of my favorite topics where you have people who are always inclined to vote one way for one party and suddenly they switch, be it because the party has left them or because there is a politician that's emerged that has been successful and surprised them and maybe they didn't vote for

that poll of tigs -- politician last time along and here we are in a re-election campaign and they say wait, let me look at my life, let me look at the impact of left regulation on my life. sure, this should be a problem. the biden campaign should be concerned about it. the question is whether they are and pete, just a quick thought. earlier you mentioned something about new york and you said, well, we know how new york is going to go. that's sad, actually, when you really think about it. because so many of these cities that are on fire are run by democrats and we sit here and say well, we know how they're going to vote. what does it take sometimes to make a switch? that thought sits with me, how far does it have to go before a place like new york says wait a second, maybe i need to rethink what leadership looks like in my city and state. pete: here's what's fascinating about the letter, jed. you asked the question, what is it going to take? the answer is different for new york and the small cities in northern minnesota. we talk often about law and

order here and effect it will have on crossover politics. these mayors in new york are talking about economics -- >> in minnesota. >> in minnesota. the most undertold story is the hollowing out of the middle class in america, the loss of jobs. that crosses party lines. we sold away our nation's backbone economically for cheap products from china and that's a message that president trump has hammered and goes across party lines. you're seeing it here from democratic mayors. pete: so what's the response from joe biden? we're watching our industries get sold off to china under his 40 years of policy, under his previous administration as a vice president. is he going to address these concerns of people saying i want an economy that works here, i want trade deals that serve americans. his answer? a social one. in fact, person been yesterday hit the trail to outline joe biden's economic plan. i wonder how those democrat mayors in minnesota will receive that socialist plan.

here's bernie outlike biden's economic plan yesterday. >> it is no great secret that joe and i disagree on a number of issues. but there is no question but that the economic proposals that joeys supporting -- joe is supporting are strong. when joe biden is president he will do something i've been fightinfighting for for a long , that is to raise the federal minimum wage to a living wage of $15 an hour. while joe biden and i disagree on the best path had to get to universal coverage, his proposal will greatly expand access to healthcare and make it more affordable for tens of millions across this country. >> we can dissect that for the entire hour. he didn't talk about the green new deal which effectively would shut down the type of industries that exist in the iron range in minnesota, in energy industries that working class people want.

if you're looking at the choice and you look at bernie sanders as the alternative, it only gets worse for the biden campaign, jed. >> yeah. and it's curious why he chose to utilize bernie sanders like this. does he think the centrists in the party are gone, that they don't matter and he's just talking to the bernie bros at this point? strategically it's an interesting decision because he's not on the ground making the case to moderates at all. he's nowhere to be found. yet the person he's putting front and center, two people, he's putting kamala harris front and center who even though her record is not as hard left as some might imagine, her rhetoric is extremely hard left and he's putting bernie sanders out front who is catering to the super hard left of the party. so does he think that that's all that the democrat party is made up? there's a bunch of people in the middle that will see that and say wait a second, i thought i would vote for doe. heatherjoe biden who isa centrii

would be voting for surrogate person ben and someone that was add -- bernie sanders and someone that was whispering in his ear all the time. will, i don't know, strategically do you think this is smart? >> the question will always be is this good soldiering, is this the democrat party trying to come together or is this joe biden becoming a trojan horse for radical left politics. that is something we wouldn't know until the election results and policies have come in. pete: i think it's got to be a reflection that the soul of the democrat party was with bernie in the process, just wasn't enough to get him across the finish line. >> still trying to fire up the base. as mail-in ballots have become one of the biggest battle lines in this country when it comes to the election, there's been a question, is it a real issue, fraud when it comes to mail-in ballots or is it a myth. one democratic operative is telling you it's no myth.

why? this is a whistleblower speaking to the new york post. i'll read you a few quotes, let you you know what he thinks about the idea of fraud. this is a real thing. and there's going to be a blank war coming november 3rd over this stuff. if they knew how the sausage was made, they could fix it. here's another one i want to read for you. this is fascinating stuff from a whistle blower who is a democratic on of pray testify. he said you have a postman who is a rabid anti-trump man and working in some republican stronghold. he can take those filled out ballots, knowing 95% are going to go republican and he can throw those in the garbage. pete, we were talking about this this morning. it's not only fair, you need to suggest this could go the other way as well. this could be a postman who is a rabid trump fan who throws out

ballots in a strong left wing district. you want honest, secure polling. that's why we have polling prices. this shows you the vulnerabilities in this process. pete: ballot harvesting has -- anonymous didn't want to share the name. this person said they've done this in the past and another portion of it's ballot harvesting, the president talked about that. here's another quote from this anonymous democrat operative. he said there are nursing homes where the nurse is a paid operative and they go room by room to old people who want to feel like they're relevant, they fill it out for them. and this is why the president points out the difference between absentee ballots -- and the media's trying to deconstruct this, saying there's no difference. absentee ballot is where a voter requests the ballot for a specific reason, the chain of custody is maintained. mail-out balloting is where you push the ballots out to voter roles, which can be very outdated where you don't know

where it's coming back from. this operative is saying that is a recipe for fraud and he's done it in the past, even without the mass mail-out balloting. >> it could be, when you think about it. you use common sense, you say to yourself, it could be a recipe for fraud. whether or not it will be, none of us can say. when you see that quote about the nursing homes, that could have happened in the past. i don't know exactly how you would closely enough monitor situations like that to prevent all possible cases of fraud along the way. we're seeing that this year because of covid-19, we're in special circumstances, there are going to be more cases of mail-in ballots than we've seen in some time. i really don't know. it is scary when you see the whistleblowers coming out and saying this is real and it has been happening. you say is this a handful of cases, is it more than a handful of cases, enough cases that

could impact the outcome of the election? we just don't know. pete: the operative question is the one you asked, is it real. there isn't a partisan answer to that. that isn't a republican or democratic thing. i would just ask you this, anyone who is considering this potentiality. why do we have polling places? where are there election monitors? why do we try to make sure there isn't anybody out. heatheroutside thepolling placea vote. none of those precautions will be in place with mail-in voting. >> it leads you in the direction of do you make it looser or more -- not restroke testify, but certain that you know who the voter is. >> we begin with a fox news alert. four officers shot in the line of duty during a violent night for police. in st. louis, an officer is fighting for his life after he was shot in his head. the suspect was arrested moments

that antifa thug would have been arrested and charged with assault and he should be behind bars. my bill, the support peaceful protest act, would take away enhanced federal benefits, that $600 a week that these people are making, to be professional protesters at night. i mean, i looked around that night. i thought who are paying these people to show up every night and protest and cause violence in the streets and there are probably a lot of left wing groups, george soros groups that are funding it. so are you and i through the enhanced unemployment benefits that these people may receive. they shouldn't receive it any longer. pete: not to mention they're in the face of people screaming, not six feet apart. these are new consequences for individuals who are breaking federal law. they would have to be arrested in the first place. to your point, in d.c., there

were no consequences. >> there never are. and these big cities where this type of violence is occurring you almost never see these thugs arrested at they should be. if you heard the president speak, he gave one of the best speeching in four years on thursday night, he heard him talk about what happened when he signed an executive order to institute a 10 year prison term on those who tear down statues. almost immediately, those incidents stopped happening. i think if we do something like this it will have the same effect because people will think twice about the activities they're engaged with if we take away the extra $600 a week. pete: have you to get statues, whether it's sending in the national guard or -- good luck with your bill. i'm sure nancy will love it. congressman banks. appreciate it. still ahead, the first covid-19 reinfection in the u.s. has been reported. how likely are you to get the virus more than once?

>> welcome back. a lab in nevada is reporting the first coronavirus reinfection case in the united states. a 25-year-old man initially diagnosed with covid-19 back in april is now showing symptoms and has been tested again and the test shows he is positive, jedediah. jedediah: [| bu.>> doctors belid with a different strain of the virus. here to discuss is dr. jeanette nesheiwat. well tom to you the show as -- welcome to the show as always.

is this a different strain, number one? and if so, is everyone potentially susceptible to get this thing again? >> good morning, guys. so fortunately, although it is possible to be reinfected, it is unlikely, according to the scientists and the research and the data that we have so far and this patient, this young man, he's actually considered to be an outlier. he was reinfected. it was found to be a different strain, a mutated strain. they looked at genetic sequence of the virus that he had. but what's interesting with this patient, we don't know his underlying medical condition. it could be that perhaps maybe he's undergoing chemotherapy, maybe he's hiv positive, he may have a weakened immune system such that his body didn't produce a robust immune response initially when he first had the virus. most of us, we would create what's called antibodies that would help fight the virus if we see it again, even if it's slightly mutated.

for example, we saw a young patient in hong kong, he was reinfected as well. he had no symptoms and that's probably because he had a row best immune -- robust immune system and even if the virus did mutate slightly, our bodies are unique and we can fight it even if it slightly mutates. we don't know the underlying conditions of this patient. he is considered an outlier. it does question the impact this may have on herd immunity and also on vaccines in the future. pete: this virus seems to teach us every day how little we know about it. i appreciate this person is an outlier. if it's only three to four months of antibodies, and let's assume it could be more widespread than that, what does it tell us about the potential savior of a vaccine, what does it tell us how we move forward? >> he's one of four. he's the only one that had to be hospitalized and became really ill. the others did not become critically ill. they didn't have any symptoms the second time around.

what that tells us is the vaccine may be effective because the immune system response mimics that of a vaccine. and again, this isn't a surprising thing to me. i've actually had patients that remained ill for weeks. i had a patient last night, he had covid positive test result last month, he got better for a few weeks, and then he came back yesterday with high fevers and body aches and headaches. i swabbed him again. i think he will recover. it may be a mutated strain. but most of us will have a strong robust immune response to fight it the next time around. so it tells us, will this mimic the vaccine and will it work. i think the results are going to be reassuring. we need a lot more he research. >> and that's an important point you make because reinfection aside, these symptoms cycle through. you feel better sometimes. i know i had this thing, it was very odd, you feel better for a few weeks and suddenly you feel like you're reinfected. i wasn't reinfected but you get

wavering odd symptoms so that's another challenge doctors are facing. we want to ask about new york city. new york city was hit really hard by covid-19. there are fears there so be another explosion of this virus when schools reopen, when the cold weather sets in. is that a legitimate concern? and if it does happen, is new york better prepared to tackle it this time around? >> yeah, absolutely. it's a great concern. i'm still more fearful of coronavirus than influenza even though both can be deadly, jedediah. the good thing is that we have testing for both. we have treatment also for influenza. we have rapid testing. we have what's called anti-virals, tamiflu to treat the flu. we know how the flu reacts. we know a lot more with coronavirus as well. so it's a matter of sticking to mitigation, preventative efforts, hand washing, wearing your mask, don't touch your face, get your flu vaccine, it's already out. all these steps together can help minimize the spread of

coronavirus and also of influenza. but it is something i'm greatly concerned about. we have to make sure we have enough ppes and we have to make sure we have enough staff to treat patients who are going to come in and hospital staffing as well. >> numbers on the rise in europe, possibly. on the rise in new york again. we continue to learn how little we know. dr. jeanette nesheiwat, thank you so much for your time today. >> thank you. my pleasure. >> coming up, senator rand paul fearing for his life after being surrounded near the white house. so why are democrats and media staying mostly silent? mike huckabee was also harassed by protesters and he's here to react, next. ta-da! did you know liberty mutual customizes your car insurance so you only pay for what you need? given my unique lifestyle, that'd be perfect! let me grab a pen and some paper. know what? i'm gonna switch now. just need my desk...

were walking, which was a lot more because of the streets being closed, these people were running up and down the streets, yelling, screaming, trying to get as close to our face as possible. you know, it was like we're in the nation's capital. we should be able to walk a street from a couple of blocks from the white house to a hotel without having to put up with this nonsense. i think the senator has it right. do an investigation. find out who these people are. these are not local d.c. residents. these people flew in, stayed in hotels. interestingly, pete, they were mostly white. these aren't some agrieved african-americans. who paid to get them there? we need to know. somebody's financing this stuff. jedediah: governor, there's been a striking amount of silence from democrats when it comes to this particular attack, to violence in general that'sers

erupted around the country. we saw that the rioting wasn't mentioned at the dnc. joe biden is recently talking about this violence. is it too late for them? if they speak out now, does it matter? it's been going on for so long and they've been silent. >> i think the reason they haven't said anything is deep down they agree with the physician solve call underpin -- philosophical underpinnings of this movement. you cannot have a civil society when some people believe that you achieve it with the most uncivil means of terrorism. let's b be clear. this is political terrorism, to scare people walking down the street, to scare people from expressing their opinions or putting a bumper sticker or yard sign out, if you can cause people to change their behavior for fear, that is terrorism. these are not mostly peaceful

protesters, anymore than the shark in jaws was a mostly nice fish, these people are anarchists and the fact that joe biden, kamala harris and nancy pelosi and the rest of the left are silent about it is indicative of the fact that deep down, they at least agree with where these folks want to take america. god help us if they do. pete: politicians aren't the only ones silent about this, governor. what this shows is security is incredibly fragile, if it's not confronting these types of issues. i'm mystified by the media reaction. this is friday morning, by the way. friday morning, as of that moment, cbs had given this issue 35 seconds of coverage. abc, nbc, zero seconds of coverage. governor, i want to read this headline from the ap, says rand paul complains about angry mob encounter after rnc. how do you explain this prism? >> it's very simple. the media are complicit in

trying to create the narrative that this is just young kids protesting the agrieved behavior they find in police. it's nonsense. these are anarchists and crazy people who would destroy americas economy, civility and government. if we don't recognize it as that, these people ought not to be reporting. i remember when the associated press was a legitimate news company. their editorial process was very thorough. it's a joke. the associated press like most media markets is a total joke. it's an advocacy organization, they may as well rename it the agadvocacy press. they're advocates for the left, that's what they've become. it's really sad. jedediah: in terms of holding media accountable, it's a little different now in the sense that these are videos, they are

everywhere, they're all over social media. if this stuff is happening people know about it and if politicians are ignoring it they know that too. thank you so much for being here, as always. we love your insight. >> thank you. jedediah: we're going to turn to headlines for you in this hour. teachers could hit the picket line in new york city. they are hoping to ramp up pressure on mayor bill de blasio to delay reopening schools, demanding the city meet a list of safety requirements. they are expected to submit a strike plan by tomorrow afternoon. a democratic senator says president trump is, quote, deliberately killing people for holding rallies. connecticut's chris murphy blasting the lack of social distancing and mask wearing at the president's rnc speech at the white house. murphy accusing republicans in attendance of being, quote, stone cold killers, not wearing masks. i wonder what he said about the protest. and you know that tropical island or mountain cabin you

second. let's talk a little bit of weather, guys. all of our weather from laura is gone. the front moved off the coast which is great news. in fact, really drier conditions, humidity levels across the mid-atlantic and northeast will drop today. across the south, the tail end of the front, sometimes we see these redevelop into something tropical. there's a chance of that. if this happens, that little disturbance around florida will see this kind of move off the shore. this would be our next named storm. the next named storm is nana, by the way. it would be good if nana does this and we don't have any problems from nana. that's hopefully what will happen. we have more weather moving in across the areas that were impacted by laura, arkansas and the boot hill of missouri, you can see more weather today. behind that, another batch is moving through oklahoma. finally, farther toward the west, monsoon activity which has been almost nonexistent this summer, arizona is finally getting in on it which is good news. phoenix, 50 days so far this

>> i've never seen anything quite like it. you had trees ripped out from the roots. you had pine trees that were broken in half, not even -- and you just don't see that kind of power. pete: president trump touring the damage from hurricane laura down in the gulf coast. a major cleanup is now underway with the cajun navy out helping victims in those hard-hit areas. joining me now with more from their efforts is a spokesman for the united cajun navy, brian trasher. brian, thanks so much for joining us this morning. tell us what the kaye jum -- cay is doing today. >> thanks for having us on to highlight our on o operations following hurricane laura. we started off gaying supplies, -- gathering supplies, sending them to the area. we found a lot of roads still blocked off from debris, power

poles, trees, things like that. with friends from texas that we met during hurricane harvey, we were able to organize a fleet of planes, private planes that were able to fly in and bring supplies directly in and then we had folks on the ground transporting them to the people that need it and actually some areas that people are stuck and we can't get to them at all and we used aircraft to air drop some supplies and food down to them. brian, the damage from hurricane laura, how does it compare to other storms that you guys have participated in the cleanup and relief effort in? >> one of the things about hurricane laura which i think why the president was so surprised at what he saw yesterday that is the national weather service predicted what they called unsurviveable surge so everybody expected catastrophic flooding. when that didn't happen, i think people thought the storm wasn't as bad as it could have been. it was a powerful, compact eye wall. i've seen hurricane and tornado

damage. after flying over this, it looked like 50-mile wide torn hit southwest louisiana, absolutely ravaged with wind damage like i've never seen. >> i read most of the loss of life when it comes to hurricane laura, 50% of the loss of life was due to carbon monoxide poise poisoning. can you help me understand that? >> i'm not really sure. we heard about folks dying from trees falling on their house. carbon monoxide must have been emitted some kind of way. i haven't been able to read up on that. >> i've read that's possibly a result of generators placed indoors when people lose power. president trump's response to the relief efforts, i know there's been some interaction. what do you think of how president trump has responded to hurricane laura? >> so he expedited the disaster declaration which was very good.

he told our governor and congressional delegation they would have whatever they needed. the one thing i would note, some of the best disaster recovery companies in the world are based in louisiana. and we have had four particular companies that helped rebuild the virgin islands a couple years ago after their hurricane that still hasn't been paid by fema. if the president could instruct the acting secretary wolf to make fema pay thees guys it would be make it easier to help rebuild louisiana. secretary wolf has to get confirmed. he would have a lot easier time getting louisiana senators to vote for him if he would get fema to pay these guys out. they are hurting, especially with the pandemic. >> you can donate to the efforts at unitedcajunnavy.com. appreciate your time this morning. coming up, many students will start the new school year in a virtual classroom.

you. you know, one of the things you keep hearing from parents is they don't know what their school district's doing, one day it's one thing, one day the kids are going back or a mixture of the both like you're saying. the one thing that's consistent, it's like we've got to get a grip on organization and sleeping and the schedule of sleeping is one of the things to drive home. this right here is from hatch. any new parent knows about this. this is hatch rest. this is for the young ones of the family. and the key here ishelps develoy sleeping schedule. it's got a smart night light, soothing sound machine. it's got a time to rise schedule that naturally wakes up the young ones in the family. then they have the same one that actually they amped up for you adults called hatch restore which also double as a night light on the side of your night stand. it's a brilliant way to tack technology -- take technology and after you use it you just go okay, now i get it. i get how i'm getting a great

... [sizzling]

i may not be able to tell time, but i know what time it is. [whispering] it's grilled cheese o'clock. pete: good morning. welcome to fox & friends and we're straight to a fox news literary. we're following several breaking stories. just this morning a suspect arrested in the shooting of two st. louis police officers, one of them fighting for his life after being shot in the head. pete: two other officers in chicago shot during a traffic stop, one of them hit in the chest and is in serious condition. we'll have more details in just a few minutes. jedediah: but first we begin in portland where a man is shot and killed near downtown protests. shots fired as trump supporters and black lives matter protesters clashed in the streets. police have not said if the shooting is connected to the demonstrations. meanwhile, president trump is

scheduled to visit kenosha, wisconsin, on tuesday after the police shooting of jacob blake. welcome, everyone. this is our 8 a.m. hour. a tough morning as we look at the continued rioting that's happening in cities around the country as we have to report on the sad and distressing deaths and injuries of police officers, and as we debate further the presence of the national guard that has emerged in some of these cities, very controversial for some. some feels it's too much. others are saying, hey, listen, i live city and i don't feel safe, and local law enforcement needs some support in these cases. president trump has weighed in on the national guard extensively because it has been deployed to kenosha whereas it has not been deployed to places like portland has not requested it. he is in orange texas. and take a listen to what he had to say. >> we've had tremendous success, as you know. we were finally able to get the go-ahead from the local

authorities to send in the national guard. within a few minutes of the guard everybody cleared out and it became safe. and we could fix in i would say 45 minutes. and the people in portland should protest because the mayor doesn't know what he's doing. if he would call or if they would ask or if the governor would ask, we would have -- we would have the national guard in there in a very short period of time, and that would be cleaned out in a matter of literally minutes and you'd have a safe portland. will: the past few mornings on fox & friends we've heard from business owners on the ground in places like kenosha, wisconsin, where they say they have seen a night and day distance between before and after the presence of national guard. we are monitoring all these situations, all these officer involved shootings and it's hard to draw any large lessons at this moment. but one thing seems to be clear, pete. we are either witnessing the escalation in political violence on the streets of american cities or we are watching the

continued decline of safety and security on american streets that is beginning to reflect itself in city after city after city in america. pete: or i think you could see both. in fact in portland the president mentioned people in portland should protest. well, that's precisely what happened. there were over 600 vehicles of trump supporters, pro-police citizens of the area around portland. they said, hey, we have a voice too. they drove through and around portland yesterday. and i know it's too early to confirm, but early reporters are the person that was shot in portland was a pro-police trump supporter. we don't know what happened, but very well could have been that he was targeted because of his beliefs and political affiliation. and when the security on the streets breaks down, the governor and the mayor there refusing to send in the national guard as the president has said time and time again, i will. and when you look at what happened in minneapolis once the guard arrived, when you look at what happened in kenosha once the guard arrived, if you look

at what happened in washington, d.c., where i was once the guard arrived that is a signal that anarchy will not be tolerated. antifa running the streets is not on okay. the national guard is here to restore order if the law-abiding citizens who live in those places and the business owners that can't open or their businesses are gone because they've been burned to the ground. so we're going to continue to get details and in this show be honest with you about the facts that happened and are careful to get it right. early reports say it may have been something targeted toward a trump supporter in portland. earlier in the program on another topic we had representative jim banks, a related topic, though, from indiana because he introduced a bill after a few of his constituentsr were harassed, elderly couples harassed outside of the white house following the r.n.c. the president gives a gives a speech, we've covered it a lot, people are confronted outside. his belief is just like with statues when the president said you're going to get a ten-year sentence tearing down a statue, just like the deploying of the national guard, if there's no real consequence for rioters

confronting people, then it won't stop. his bill would take away unemployment benefits, additional ones, to people who are charged federally with rioting. here's what the congressman had to say about that proposal. >> when i saw this happened to friends of mine walking out of the white house on a historic night, they came to see the president. they never could have imagined what they would be met with when they left the white house. i thought who are paying these people to show up every single night and protest and cause violence in the streets, and it's probably -- there are probably a lot of left-wing groups. if you think about it so are you and i through our tax dollars to go to the enhanced unemployment benefits that these people receive. they shouldn't receive it any longer if they're found guilty. jedediah: yeah. and just the charge would have to be very specific here, obviously. you would have to make sure that these were rioters, not protesters, that they had intimidated someone or had been responsible for some kind of destruction, obviously -- pete: had to have already been arrested. jedediah: yeah, would have had to have been arrested and, you know, they have to make their case and whatnot.

but, yeah, that has been conflated over and over again these protests with the rioters. so i think a lot of these politicians are looking at this and say there has to be some consequence to these actions because what has happened is a lot of people rioting in these cities have gotten away with it, local political leadership has done nothing, there's been a domino effect and other troublemakers in these cities say, well, if they can get away with with this so can we and it's just leading these problems to balloon and balloon. so politicians are stepping in and saying, well, wait a second. we're going to see to it that at least something here that circumvents this behavior perform moving on to another topic, though, that's highly controversial yet again democrats are furious right now on capitol hill after director of national intelligence john ratcliffe says he will scale back in-person election security briefings to congress, ratcliffe insisting the move will cut down on leaks. lauren blanchard is live in d.c. with the fallout. lauren? >> good morning, jed, will, pete pete. lawmakers on capitol hill are going to have to get their reading glasses out on friday.

the few congressional intel committees, the director of national intelligence john ratcliffe said election interference briefings would primarily come in writing rather than in person. he says it's because of leaks to the press, and he wants to make sure the information is not misunderstood nor politicized. quote, "it will also better protect our sources and methods and most sensitive intelligence from additionally unauthorized disclosures or misuse." it's a decision president trump agrees with. >> they leak the information before it gets in and what's even worse, they leak the wrong information. and he got tired of it. >> the republican chair of the senate intel committee urged director ratcliffe to continue to fulfill his obligations to congress but also said in a statement -- this is marco rubio -- "this situation we now face is due in no small part to the willingness of some to commit federal crimes for the purpose of advancing their electoral aims." democrats are capitol hill say

the administration is trying to downplay threats to the u.s. election. speaker nancy pelosi and house intel committee chair adam schiff writing, "this is a shocking abdication of its lawful responsibility to keep the congress currently informed and a betrayal of the public's right to know how foreign powers are trying to sweater our democracy." the democratic nominee joe biden weighing in. he called it a "shameless partisan manipulation by the president to further his own interests." back to .ou will: lauren blanchard, thank you for that update. it's important to note i believe that members of congress will still be getting the same information they would have prior to this edict. it will simply be in written form as opposed to an in-heron briefing. i don't know, pete, how that leads to the hyperventilation of a foreign interference in the election, but it's important to note again, the same information will be relayed. pete: well, because trump and because russia. and the irony of saying sub subverting our democracy. the only ones subverting -- and we're a republic, by the way, not a democracy -- are the

democrats who ran with the russian many of you information and spent three and a half years trying to impeach a president based on a russia hoax and launched a special counsel to do so. so who's peddling it? and it is amazing how far they're continuing to go with this. they won't -- they're getting the same info. will: from vice president biden he said the following when it comes to this. "president trump is hoping vladimir putin will once more boost his candidacy and cover his horrific failures to lead our country through multiple crises we are facing. and he does not want the american people to know the steps vladimir putin is taking to help trump get elected or why putin is eager to intervene, because donald trump's foreign policy has been a gift to the kremlin." there you go, jedediah. it's about russia. jedediah: yeah. i would not -- honestly, though, i wouldn't even -- i wouldn't hand them this talking point. if it were me, i would just do the briefing in person. i would actually hand it in writing and even if i had to go and read it --

pete: jed, it's a fake talking point. jedediah: i know that. but you know what? some of these fake talking points are successful. you're in the heat of an election season. i would not give any illusion of lack of transparency to these people -- pete: what person believes that adam schiff is being honest or nancy pelosi is being honest with respect to vladimir putin? jedediah: a lot of independent voters hung onto that russia story, counted on it. um, i'm saying right now for me not to give even an inch on a talking point. if the written context is the same, show up and read it. pete: story time to the intel committee. jedediah: yes. listen, sometimes you have to baby politicians. no. but -- pete: i appreciate that point of view -- will: i appreciate that point, i truly do. my response to that might be this. if one is not handed to them, one will be created. whether or not it was russia, the u.s. postal service, or in and out of this, it's really nothing republicans or president trump can do to stop the next

implication of a conspiracy. if you don't, quote, unquote, hand them one, one will be created anyway, jedediah. jedediah: could be. just don't make it easy. this makes it too easy, in my opinion. will: all right. turning now to your headlines, and we start with a fox news alert. four officers shot in the line of duty overnight. a suspect arrested just this morning in the shooting of two st. louis officers, one of them fighting for his life after he was shot in the head. police say they were responding to a shooting call when the suspect opened fire president the gunman then barricaded himself inside a home in a 12- 12-hour standoff with police. the second officer was shot in the leg and he will be okay, thankfully. meanwhile in chicago two officers are hospitalized after being shot during a traffic stop stop. one of them was hit in the chest and is in serious condition. the other was hit in the arm and he also thankfully will be okay. police are sharing a photo of the suspect's gun. they say the suspect is hospitalized after being shot by an officer. and the air force is release be a video of two russian fighter jets passing dangerously

close to an american bomber. it happened during routine operations over the black sea in international airspace on friday friday. the air force say the jets came within 100 feet. russia says the bomber was headed towards its border. no one was hurt. and the first college football game during the pandemic starts off with a huge run. >> right away oswald going to keep it, pitches it to evans, he's outside, and evans gets through. c. j. evans makes a guy miss, and you wanted college football, first play, touchdown. will: i mean tell me that doesn't look good, sound good, feel good. that's austin taking early lead against arkansas with a 75-yard touchdown on the first play. but central arkansas was able to rally in front of socially distanced fans. they won 24-17. and those are your headlines.

pete: looking at the those cutbacks. will: honestly, i don't mean to be overly sentimental. how good did football just sound and feel? pete: it's a beautiful thing. hey, nfl, don't ruin it for us. don't mess it up for every american that just wants to watch football. stuff on the helmet. and we pointed out earlier the dallas cowboys last year wanted to put the five officers on their helmets, and the nfl wouldn't do it after five officers were shot in dallas. so if you're going to do political, he can't just pick one side. don't ruin it. will: we'll be talking about it a little bit later in the show. pete: coming back, democrats are finally acknowledging violence across the country, but they're blaming -- you guessed it -- trump. one business owner whose shop was destroyed in the ferguson riots six years ago says it's too little, too late. e here foru with safe, convenient service. >> tech: we'll come right to you. ♪ upbeat music >> tech: you'll get a text when we're on our way. >> tech: before we arrive, just leave your keys on the dash. we'll replace your windshield with safe, no-contact service.

♪ >> i condemn violence in any form whether it's looting or whatever it is. last four years we weren't having riots, racial riots. and when they occurred, we didn't have to call the national national. we protected federal property without hurting people. the problem we have right now is we're in donald trump's america. he's rooting for more violence, not less. pete: okay. former vice president joe biden earlier this week finally just acknowledging the looting and avoidance across the nation and pointing the blame at president trump. but one business owner whose auto body shop was destroyed during the riots in ferguson six years ago, he still feels the strain today to the damage done to his business, complete auto body and repair owner curt barks barks. thanks for being here.

you heard the former vice president saying, "hey, there may be some violence but it's all about trump. is that what you experienced six years ago under the obama-biden administration? >> unfortunately the way the politics play, and it's disgusting, and the fact that they think the election is going to end this. i the rule wish the election would get here and get over with so people can get on with their lives. it's disgusting what this is doing to businesses and the community. it gets worse and worse every year. pete: kurt, your business was destroyed. you've been able to rebuild, but many have not. and the policing effect from ferguson is called the ferguson effect as far as how law enforcement agencies have been affected as well. talk to us about what's happened in ferguson since. >> ferguson itself is a great community. and a lot of opportunists that came in and took advantage of the situation really down scaled compared to what's happening right now, but i can feel it, and it took years to recover. i mean the financial loss of business and reputation is irrefutable. the millions of dollars that were lost in my company alone,

there to protect us. but once the national guard was there on scene they did a phenomenal guard and our law enforcement worked side by side and the opportunists left. pete: so they were called in under the obama administration are not as political props, could have provided even more peace earlier than they did, and in this case, local decision-making drives pulling them back. what's your message to these people who continue to riot, regardless of the politicians, democrats not calling them out, what's your message to these rioters and what they're hoping to accomplish? >> yeah. what they're trying to accomplish is simply just anarchy. no message is getting played here. there is no movement that's making sense. it is simply rioters and people that want to steal and loot and shoot at lawsuit or disrespect any type of authority. and the lack of respect that we are giving to our law enforcement has to change. and no matter what we do moving forward we need to understand it's a lawful country, and it's got to be done right.

we'll get your reaction. >> is & now to honor america please join in the singing of our national anthem. jedediah: so what do you think? is the president to blame? and should politicians be engaging in a blame game at all when it comes to this issue? >> well, it shouldn't be a blame game at all because when you start pointing fingers you should point it right back at your because, you know, one of the first things they said is they got systemic racism. well, that mean that it's a norm meaning president -- i meant vice president biden, you've been in office for a long time. what have you done? if you want to start blaming, let's look at people's records. and i said if president record, what he's done for african-americans is far better than biden who's been in office for four to -- for 47 years. let's come together. i've been talking about it. let's come together and now you want to blame. and i think it's wrong.

and, you know, people has come together and communicate, which they have not wanted to do that at all, and that's what's sad. will: herschel, we talked about what the nfl may do in week 1. i'm sure you saw this past week the nba and the nba players association declined to play, sat out for a game or two two days this past week, dominoed into major league baseball and major league soccer too. herschel, i'm fascinated by this this. you're an outlier. you're an african-american, you indeed conservative or republican, certainly a donald trump supporter. you're an athlete. you were a high level athlete. those are all things that fall outside the norm when it comes to voting patterns or support traditionally for political parties. it seems most athletes lean left or at least so publicly. it seems most athletes are diagnosing and looking for solutions to social justice issues only in one way. why? why do athletes all see it one way and you see it another? >> well, you know, one thing about it is i'm for truth.

i'm for truth. and what i mean by that is, i didn't speak out for the president because someone asked me to. i spoke out because i know him. i spoke out because i wanted people to know the truth. and i've seen a lot of stations and i give you guys credit, i've seen a lot of stations that give opinions when they're supposed to be giving the news. i grew up in the south. i grew up in a small town that people may watch one station, and they've seen a lot of things that's been slanted. and right now, i won't be -- if the nfl, the nba, or any professional team is going to get involved, what i've been saying, keep politics out of sports, if you're going to get involved, give the truth. this administration here has not had a fair chance. anytime anything happens it's this administration's fault. well, they're reaching out saying, guys, come let us help the change. that's how it's going to change. it's not going to change by something you see, by protesting and kneeling and all that. way it's going to change is get into washington, get into democratic people to go across feline and meet with the

republicans, republicans' hands are open. not having a closest fist. they are hands are opening saying let's get this done, and they don't seem to want to do it and i want people to know that. i want people to know the truth before they go to the polls to vote. you know, that's important. it seems like the democratic size want to go to the polls upset, want to go to the polls thinking that this administration is the one that causing this, because, you know, all i ever hear from the democratic size is let's go to the sign, this sign, this sign. you know, there's more than one thing science. there's other sciences say something different. you know, they talk about college football playing again, and they can play again from other scientists. pete: herschel, you mentioned, you know, the protest and how it's okay if we're going to hear from both sides. but from viewers who watch and with the nfl coming, i'm reminded of -- i don't know if it was last season or two seasons ago when those five officers were shot in dallas and the dallas cowboys wanted to put a decal on their helmet honoring those police officers. and the nfl would not allow it.

now we've got drew brees with jacob blake on his helmet. they're talking about putting the names of people on their helmets. it's going to be one-sided, herschel. and are people going to turn off the tv if it's kneeling and alternate anthems and names and black lives matter slogans? how can it not look like it's going to be one side? >> well, i know it's going to be one-sided. one of the things that was sad to me is i heard the coach from the seattle seahawks, coach carroll, he said, you know, white people just don't understand. and i said that is so insulting, coach, because i know you you, coach. you know, he was with me when i was in minnesota. white people do understand. italian people understand. native american people understand. america understand that there is a problem. we understand that there is a problem with african-american as well but we have to come together to solve that problem as americans.

not happening to black america. things are happening to white america as well. people don't want to talk about white people killed by policeman policeman. they don't want to talk about latinos killed by policemen. they only want to talk about the black. i'm talking about coming together to stop violence altogether as americans, 'cause that's what we are, not a black national anthem, not a white national anthem, not an italian national anthem, but an american anthem. and that's the way it is. that's what this country is. this country is united states of america, and under god we trust. and we got to put god back in i. will: well, said, herschel walker. really appreciate having you on this morning. always fun to have you. thank you, herschel. pete: thank you, sir. >> thank you. will: a new study says some voters are shying away from sharing their pick for president president. and it could be impacting the polls. former clinton campaign strategist mark penn is going to break it down next. sale of the year on the sleep number 360 smart bed.

a full quarantine. over to you, jed. jedediah: thanks, will. a new study finds some voters may be shy when sharing their pick for president. nearly 12% of republicans and 11% of independents are reluctant to reveal their true choice. for democrats that number is half. respondents even admit it would be quote, dangerous, to express an opinion that differs from liberals, and some say it's raising the possibility that polls are understating support for president trump. let's ask former clinton campaign strategist and chairman of the harris poll, mark penn. mark, welcome to show, as always always. so what do you make of this, the silent trump voter? are they out there? how many of them are there? how real is this story? will: i think it's an interesting study down by cloud research. i think what they did is they determined, as you said, about 10 to 12% of republicans and independents afraid to express their views to pollsters and around 5 or 6% of democrats; so that means you could have 5 or

6% of the vote kind of being the hidden vote or silent vote that doesn't register. i mean, we generally in polls try to correct for this factor as much as we can. but if this study says there could be a couple of point bias in the polls against trump and republicans that we'd all have to watch out out for. jedediah: yeah. and we saw this play out in 2016 as well. and you've seen folks on the left coming out, prominent figures and warning about this. you've seen bill maher, michael moore saying, "hey, everyone, this is not in the bag." so if this is going on and you had a very successful week at the r.n.c. what sort of strategy is being implemented by the biden campaign that's making them still sit in the basement? where is joe biden, and why is he not out on the front lines making his case to people? >> well, i think there's no question that trump has picked up some momentum here coming out of the convention, that this race was as wide open as 12 and

everybody said it's over. now it's down to six and the next couple of points are absolutely critical. and that's why biden is coming out of the basement post-labor day. i think they're organizing events, feeling out a campaign, but they are going to go ahead here and get out and campaign because they have to. these polls are closing. this is a real race. i think there's no question about that now. jedediah: mark, what do you say to people who don't trust polls at all anymore? they look back at 2016 and say so many of the polls were wrong, feel completely misled. so many media folks, in fact, very surprised when it came that president trump had won that election. so is there a reason to distrust polls in their entirety at this point? >> well, obviously i believe in polls. polls are a snapshot in time. so you can't always project where things go from a snapshot. and also, in general, i think there was a failure more of analysis in 2016.

people didn't really understand how the midwestern vote, how working-class americans had switched from democrats to republicans. they didn't really see how the trump message was landing. i think it's pretty important, you know, for both sides as they plan their campaigns to understand how the democrats doing with the suburban vote, that they did so well in the midterms with, and are the working-class voters sticking with trump? those are the two critical swing groups that i think will determine this election. jedediah: mark penn, thanks so much, as always. i for one like the polls. i like to check them out. i think they're interesting if nothing else so i'll be checking out the polls as they come forth and maybe we'll have you back on to discuss some of those as we gear up for the next few weeks. going to be fun. i'll tell you that. >> a poll a day. jedediah: thanks so much. catholic schools in the u.s. divided over reopening for in- in-person learning but our next guest says his faith requires him to open his doors. he's going to explain that

new york post. you said we felt called. why did you feel called to reopen full, on time, in-person? >> well, you know, as a member of the catholic community, that's central to our mission. you know, on a more personal basis, liz and i have two sons where they're in elementary school right now, and we discussed in-depth what we wanted for them going into the new school year, and i think it's very important that they stop playing fortnight and, you know, get into school. so... will: i don't think you're the only parent across this country that can identify with that conundrum right now. let me ask you about teaching within the schools. there's a story emanating out of new york city right now where teachers could be preparing to strike to prevent the reopening of in-person teaching in new york city. how have your teachers responded to the idea of teaching in

person? >> very well. you know, catholic schools, obviously, have less handcuffs on them, you know, made you possible by the constitution. so, you know, their mission is much more -- you're seeing enrollment go up, which means that there is a pretty wide consensus. and i do want to say not everyone's on board. if you look to seattle, there the diocese has serious hesitancy, whereas in boston they seem to be all on board. but as of right now, there is a movement. jedediah: thomas, do you have any idea with respect to attendance how many kids will actually be in attendance in person versus how many of your student body will be doing virtual learning or some other option?n. there's so many schools across

[laughter] otherwise, it is the air is a little crisper and cooler, fall is coming and football is a topic we'll get to but we start with this a big development on the political side. you know that president trump in 2016 expanded the map, went and won in states like wisconsin, the democrats thought were strongholds for them and michigan. well one of the states the president didn't win was minnesota, although it was very close. i mean remember minnesota didn't even go for ronald regan in 198g against the minnesotan, but the development caught our eye. six democrat mayors in minnesota have signed a letter backing not joe biden, but president trump. these are from towns in the iron range up there like virginia, el

i, i've been to a bunch of towns former democrat strongholds and democrat mayors and this is why they're endorsing president trump. they say like many in our region we have voted for democrats over many decades. we've watched as our constituent s jobs left not only the iron range but our country by putting tariffs on our product, politicians like joe biden did nothing to help the working class. in this election there's a lot at stake but the biggest risk is our jobs, our economy and way of life. president trump delivered the best economy in our nations history and president trump will deliver for us again. will, it's just six mayors in one state but you don't often see mayors in small towns like that who traditionally have been democrat switching over to an incumbent republican president. big development. will: you know what's most interesting to me is the why. the who, yes democratic mayors, the where, upstate minnesota but the why is what's so fascinating to me pete because this is a road many have traveled over the last five years perhaps crossing party lines because of economic issues. we have totally neglected to

realize that over the last decade-plus, the middle class of america has been hollowed out we've lost jobs and we have traded it for cheap products from china and whether or not you're a democrat or republican you're looking to solutions to that very big problem, jedediah and the truth is president trump right now, has been the one hammering that issue. jedediah: yeah it's always how these policies that politicians talk about actually impact your life that make you decide who you're going to vote for. talk is cheap. it's do you have more money in your pocket? is your business doing better? are those regulations affecting you in a positive or negative way? the practical application of those policies in your daily life is what moves the needle and we've seen you saw that rnc video we've highlighted a former democrat saying i'm coming out and supporting trump here is why , you've seen silent trump voters out in the country which i'm sure some are former democrats who have looked at the effects of policies from the trump adminitration, and they've been positive and said hold on a second who cares if

it's labeled republican or democrat i want the person that provides the best opportunities for me and my family, in this country. so, you're going to see a lot of that shifting which makes for a more interesting race and election. another thing that made the conversation really interesting and a bit controversial and contentious is the topic of mail-in ballots. this is the latest battle that we're seeing emerge on capitol hill. now, you have a top democratic operative coming out and saying that voter fraud with these mail -in ballots is real, that it's not a myth and he's saying he knows it because he's been doing it for decades. now these quotes emerged from this anonymous democrat in the new york post and i'll read the first one and pass it over to will. the first one says this is a real thing and there is going to be an ex me ever war coming november 3 over this stuff if they knew how the sausage was made, they could fix it. now of course, will, these anonymous quotes, you know, don't always hold weight for many but this is a heated topic of conversation right now, is it

not? will: an o him it it can under cut someone's credibility but free someone to tell the truth and a double-edged knife if you will beings but what you might get is detail, detail that someone feels free to share with you like this. this whistleblower, this former democratic operative explains how mail-in ballots fraud would work. he says you've have a postman, whose an anti-trump guy working in bedminster, some republican stronghold, and he can take those filled out ballots and knowing 95% go to republicans he can just throw them in the garbage but pete what this says to me it really isn't a partisan issue although this is a democratic operative and that's an important note. if you are a democrat you be concerned about this as well because it shows the vulnerability of mail-in balloting. there's a reason that we have all these protection, when you go to the ballot box, overseers making sure you're free from influence, making sure it's a pure ballot. none of those exist when it comes to mail-in ballots. pete: but it feels a lot like a

partisan issue. the postal service union endorsed who? joe biden. who always wants to make sure there isn't voter id? democrats. who are the ones that want to expand mail-out ballots and who never wants to clean voter roles of people who are dead or moved democrats. so it feels like loosening of the rules is a partisan thing, whereas republicans are saying we think you should have an id to vote, be able to absentee vote but not push votes out, we're open to making more robust in-person voting so you know your ballot is being cast and this is concerning because it's not just, it's just individuals it's also ballot harvesting. here is one more aspect of what they did in the new york post. there are nursing homes where the nurse is a paid operative and they go room by room to these old people who still want to feel like they are relevant and they literally fill it out for them, and again, the confliction is often made of on send tee balloting which is different. you have a chain of custody with

one individual, and mail-out balloting, where you're sending out ballots to post office box is hoping people live there, their kids are not at college, someone hasn't passed away and not having full accountability on what comes back that worries people and the president rightfully so. will: pete you're right that one political party stands to benefit from a ballot box that has less integrity to it, that one political party seems to want that integrity loosened up while another wants it tightened down but i believe no matter which way you vote as individuals human beings out there, americans out there want integrity in their vote. want integrity at the ballot box and what i'm saying is i think this issue should be alarming for you know matter which political party you belong to as long as you care about integrity of your ballot, jedediah. jedediah: yeah and is there fraud is the question, with respect to these mail-in ballots is there fraud? some of those quotes sound terrifying and your common sense would lead you to a place where you say well this definitely could happen. it certainly could. i don't know to what level it's

happening i don't know if it's happening. pete: its been documented. jedediah: you can turn around and say well, it can happen either way, right? you could have a nursing home operative that can't stand joe biden and maybe wants to paralyze the system in another way so i don't know if it's happening and i don't know if there's a way to properly prevent it from happening because you can always have bad actors in the system. people, by nature, are flawed. there are going to be people that want the system to collapse no matter what so i don't know how you tackle the problem but i think it makes for an interesting conversation pete as you brought up the larger issue of voter fraud, the larger issue of voter id comes into play. will: there's always one side, you've got to check your id to get of a plane but the most sacred thing you do your neighbor with vouch for you or you don't even have to vouch for yourself, sign a ballot, take it away. you can get identification for free in a lot of these voter id laws. it feels intentional and very one-sided. i want to move to our last story you've seen, social

justice protests pour over from the street into our sports league, all boycotting games this past week and now the nfl is preparing for week one which is am coming very very soon. according to espn this is what the nfl could be planning among options discussed by the league and the player's union according to a source involved players reading personalized palms and based on experience with social injustice these stories could be incorporated into game day broadcast. hershel walker was on fox & friends a little bit earlier and here was his reaction to the nfl 's plans. >> the nfl, the nba or any professional team is going to get involved. if we're going to get involved give this truth. i hope this is not slanted only to support the democratic side because if you want social justice if anything, is to bring both parties together. that's how it's going to change. it's not going to change by stomping your feet, by protesting and kneeling all that where it's going to change is getting into washington, getting

the democratic people to go across their line and meet with the republican and the republican hands are open. not having to closed fist their hands are open and saying let's get this done. jedediah: see , i think there is value if these individuals are going to share personal stories of social justice. this is a time to make that heard. it could make a difference. i understand why athletes in this moment in time who have suffered at the hands of social justice would feel compelled to say i want to share my story it could help someone and i am a let the market decide kind of girl. if you don't like it turn it off you don't have to watch sports and sports will suffer, people won't watch and maybe a change will be made. but you got to let these people speak their minds, if the league lets them speak their minds, if you don't like it you always have the option to change that channel. will: they used to have rules that said, you know, you have to stand for the national anthem or here is how high your socks have to be and they really enforce those sock rules but they let people kneel for the national anthem and it is all one-sided.

the dallas cowboys wanted a de call to honor police, nfl wouldn't allow it to happen and viewers will too. if you're kneeling for the national anthem you've got jacob blake's name on drew brees had jacob blake's name on his helmet. i'm not saying that means someone should be shot in the back. we'll get the facts about that but are we really what about honoring the girlfriend who called the police, because she felt threatened and a restraining order had been ignored? does that life matter as much? it's all one-sided and it feels very political because it is, and it becomes absolute group think. will: the nfl additionally apparently plans to allow player s to place names on their helmet and on this i agree completely it's totally one- sided. if politics are a part of sports that's something we all have to accept but it is a one-sided political message and one that pursues the truth and one that considers all angles or now are

sports entities also political entities. jedediah: yeah we'll have to wait and see and see how people react and how they respond but it's an interesting conversation to be having right now and i think it's interesting to see where the public lies on it because it reflects where they lie on a larger picture happening and unfolding, sports is just magnifying that and maybe that's a good thing. we'll turn to headlines now beginning with a fox news alert because a man is shot near portland near clashes of trump supporters and black lives matter protesters. police have not said the shooting is connected to the demonstration. a pro-trump caravan of more than 100 cars flooded city streets yesterday for the trump 2020 cruise rally and president trump tweeting overnight, the big backlash going on in portland cannot be unexpected after 95 days of watching an incompetent mayor admit he has no idea what he's doing. overnight police clashing are protesters near the white house, officers firing tear gas and rubber bullets to clear out

hundreds of demonstrators at the black lives matter plaza. some protesters even hurling tear gas canisters back at police. a similar scene across the country in california. protesters throwing rocks and bottles at police in oakland. one officer is hurt, and six people were arrested. and today, late actor chad wick bosman is being remembered in his home state of south carolina. the governor is ordering flags on the state house to fly at half staff to "honor the life, contributions and memory of a truly extraordinary son of south carolina." the flags will be given to his family. the tweet announcing his death now becoming the most-liked tweet ever with more than 6 million likes. he died from colon cancer on friday and he was just 43 years old. terribly sad story. those are your headlines. will: it is a sad story, thank you, jed. one of the most pressing issues on voters minds is the economy,

but would joe biden's agenda actually help american workers? we'll ask a former economic advisor to president obama, next

we are now experiencing the worst economic crisis since the great depression. now, some of you may have heard that trump signed some executive orders. trump's economy before the pandemic was an economy that benefited the very very rich. the economic proposal that joe is supporting are strong and will go a long, long way, in improving life for working families. pete: socialist senator bernie sanders going after president trump's response to the covid-19 economic crisis, but how would joe biden's economic agenda stack up to the president? jedediah: joining us now fox

news contributor and former economic advisor to president obama, rob the wolf. robert welcome to the show. did i miss something? is bernie sanders actually the one running for president here? why is he the one out there, talking about joe biden's economic policy? why isn't it joe biden? >> well joe biden has spoke about his economic policy. he gave four speeches just on the economy, and the contrast between joe biden and president trump's recovery couldn't be more different. president trump's talking about a payroll tax cut. that won't help the 13 million people recently unemployed by the pandemic. it doesn't help that 80,000 small businesses that got closed with the pandemic, so there's a huge contrast between the two and trickle down economics is not going to be the way to get us into a recovery. pete: robert do you really think people see joe biden as the open -up candidate the mask mandate one, that he's the one that allows business? that's absurd and do you not get

worried, hold on, do you not get worried -- >> the covid response, we have 180,000 people that have passed away, 6 million people impacted when the president said -- pete: and you're not pointing any fingers at china, at what they did? joe biden would give him a free pass. this is not a conversation about covid those robert. this is a conversation about the economy. are you worried about mayors in northern minnesota who are democrats saying that we're leaving our party because the policies of the democrats have crushed the working class in minnesota so we're going to president trump? that's the policies of obama- biden they're rejecting not donald trump. that's a fact. six democrat layers in minnesota signed a letter. >> okay so let's talk facts. here are facts. the stock market that president trump is touting, which is up amazon, walmart, target, up 100% , at the same time 20% of

small businesses were closed. 25 major retailers have closed. 13 people, 13 million people are unemployed from the pandemic. jedediah: but robert, hold on a second. you're talking about things that have happened. we're in the midst of a pandemic , there were shutdowns that happened. what i'm pointing to and what pete is also addressed is what the economy looked like before this , which was actually quite good. >> we can talk about that too. jedediah: so what do you want to see? do you want to see tax hike, the corporate tax rates higher, what is joe biden going to do that's actually going to bring about positive change? >> you can keep coming at me, it's fine. let me reply so a couple things. one, before this took place, just for clarity, president obama had 225,000 jobs for his last three years, and president trump's first three years was 183,000. their gdp, which president trump thought was going to be north of

5% came in at 2.5% pre-covid. pete: so you're denying that donald trump had a strong economy? you're denying that and you're going to tell everyone to deny what they saw? >> i didn't say that at all. you were just asking for a comparison. we had, let's be clear. we had right now, eight straight years of a trajectory going one way. now we have a depression, and those are just the facts so we can do contrast and compare but trickle down economics is not what's going to work for a recovery. jedediah: i'm telling you, unfortunately, people are in distress and i sincerely doubt that people in businesses are going to want to hear that tax hikes are a plan when they are already suffering right now. i could be wrong, but i don't think that is going to go over very well. pete: we're out of time. jedediah: unfortunately we have, more fox & friends is am coming up i promise we'll have you back >> i hope you'll let me chat next time. wayfair has way more ways to renovate your home,

will: welcome back the nba playoffs resumed yesterday following days of uncertainty in the wake of team boycotts protesting racial injustice. the league reached an agreement with the player's association on measures including launching social justice coalitions and turning arenas into polling locations for the upcoming election, so it's a necessary step, or are politics starting to seep into sports? here now is fox sports nba analyst and audio host, chris br oussard, chris really good to see you, man. >> you too, will, what's happening? will: chris it's getting harder to distinguish professional sports leagues from political action committees. is politics permly in professional sports? >> i don't think it has to be permanent, i think because

basketball and football are dominated by african americans and african americans feel like they still have, which i agree with, a fight for equality and justice in this country, our athletes are using their platform to push for that. now, if we get this justice and equality that we want, then we can leave politics out of sports , but until then, i think you're going to hear athletes using their voice and look, i'm like most persons, where when athletes are speaking out on issues i agree with, i love it. when they're speaking out on stuff i don't, i don't want to hear it but i agree with these black athletes or what they're speaking out against. they're taking a chance because some people might be turned off but i support them fully, and i'm proud of them. will: chris the question is what effect will this have on their audience. to be political is one thing, but to be one-sided be propaganda and for me, and i'm interested in having this conversation with you, it

seems that there's an ask from professional athletes of their audience to sign on to their agenda and it's being presented really as i said, in a one-sided manner. for example, let's take it from the top line first. the political message. it's one that echoes largely the sentiments of black lives matter. do i have to sign on to that political platform, chris? i know you're a man of faith. i know you to some extent. black lives matter has many items in its platform that i would openly disagree with but are not nba players asking to sign on to things like the destruction of the nuclear family, am i not having to be someone who signs on to those messages to remain an nba fan? >> no, because to be honest, i'm a person, like you said of faith and i support black lives matter the sentiment, and black lives matter the fact. i support their fight for justice but i do not support the black lives matter organization and as you said, much of what they stand for as

far as destruction in a nuclear family and things like that and i think the fact is that most people, including the nba players, who are promote ing black lives matter they're not promoting the organization. they are promoting the belief and the fact that black lives matter. when you were with lebron james a few weeks ago say black lives matter is not a movement, it's a lifestyle, it's who we are, it sounded like lebron didn't even know there was an organization called black lives matter and i think that's fortunate because i don't like what the organization stands for in a lot of cases but i do think it's important to push for the sentiment that black lives matter. will: and chris, i don't think most americans disagree with that sentiment, of course most people think black lives matter. i think most americans would agree that racism is an issue we must overcome in this country and that we can make peoples to law enforcement, but didn't we move from politics to the story and again, it's as though

athletes and many out there in the media roanne sonessing us to accept certainty when it comes to these stories like for example, that with jacob blake, before we know the fact, and if you search for the facts, again, i feel like many athletes be painting you therefore as someone in opposition, someone opposed to any kind of black lives matter sentiment or worse, that you're a racist if you want to look for the facts in a situation, and that's going to turn off a huge chunk of the audience, chris. >> well let me go to the audience part first. the players show that they will go there as far as shutting down the league and that's a message to the owner, the commissioner, the audience, the corporate sponsors and the networks. now, a lot of people might say, and we saw it on twitter, i don't need the nba. let the nba boycott forever for all i care. okay that hurts the nba but you saw the ramifications would go beyond the nba, major league baseball could join, nfl could

join, and the nfl is the grand daddy of them all and a lot of these people who don't care about the nba they wouldn't feel the same way about the nfl and that is where the players have real power to effect change i agree with you, unfortunately, our society is too polarized and we can't have nuanced discussion s about really complicated topics. and that's just a problem in our society today, but the players are saying, when you look at jacob blake, the players are saying nobody is saying he's a saint. they are just saying that was excessive force and i think most american, if not all, would say that was excessive force. will: that's a conclusion that has to come at the end of an investigation. >> does it? does it? will: yes, i think it does, chris. any type of conclusion has to be reached at the end of a search for the truth. >> my eyes are a conclusion too will: no. this man was unarmed.

will: no. chris, there has to be a search for the truth and evidence and facts before we reach that conclusion but i will promise you this , chris now that we're colleagues i be willing to is those nuanced conversations with you i'll look forward to have those conversations with you, really appreciate you, chris broussard. see you, man. joe biden is now condemning nationwide violence and getting ready to leave the basement and campaign in key battleground states. will his strategy shift work, we discuss, next.

[laughter] now i'm 40 and it's like you can't do it anymore, but it says

shop.foxnews.com. the swag is getting better and better. will: it's good i'm taking this one home. pete: you can't they need it for the weekend. will: oh, really? i'm seriously taking this home. pete: there's two so you can take one. will: this is mine. jedediah: [laughter] pete: will: joe biden is shaking up his campaign to gear up and leave the basement after labor day with plans to hit the road in key swing states. jedediah: here to break down this strategy shift president and partner, lee carter, lee welcome. so we see a little bit of a shift here from joe biden. he's going to hit the campaign trail albeit a little bit delay ed still, and he is going to address the violence going on in the nation even though there was just an entire convention where he didn't mention it at all. regardless there's been a shift, why? >> so i think it's a couple things. one it's probably always as planned to come out stronger after the convention. i think he had a strategy of laying low and letting things play out and now he's going to get out with his message but i

think it's important that we take note of this shift on the violence, because it's really really important to the american people, and i think they may have misjudged how important it was to the american people and what it meant behind it and i think a lot of people were thinking that if you were concerned about violence, if you're concerned about law and order that also meant that you did not support black lives matter and i think that you're not mutually exclusive and that's something he's realized and recognized as absolutely essential. he has to address it to the american people which is absolutely about their individual safety. pete: lee hold on. was it really always his plans because we heard a lot from the biden campaign, a lot of confidence about this basement strategy is working. we could do this all the way to election day, and then his convention happened, republican convention happened, violence was not denounced and suddenly, joe acaba nouns i'm going to leave my basement and it feels like a reaction to a tightening race where he can't hide the

whole time. >> look, i think there's no question about it. i think that what he's realized i was just reading some transcripts of focus groups about undecided voters and one of the undecided voters said this. he said, i feel like donald trump is defining joe biden. i need to hear from joe biden. who is joe biden? only 30% of the american people right now understand what joe biden's platform is. two-thirds of americans know that he is not donald trump. he stands against donald trump but they don't know what he is for and that is a big mistake and a big miss judgment but i think the campaign thought it be enough just not to be donald trump in order to beat donald trump. and that's not going to be enough. we're seeing polls tightening, and in swing states it's getting closer and closer and joe biden needs to make his case to the american people and it has to. it absolutely must include how are you going to keep the american people safe because that is what americans most, it's one of their biggest concerns right now. that and the economy and so he's going to have to come out with a

message on both of those so i think to a certain extent you're right and he's realized he can't just lay back anymore, it's time for him to get out there and i'm not sure they didn't have a strategy to always go out there more after a convention, but absolutely right now, it is essential he tells them because if you don't tell your story someone else will tell it for you and it's not favorable. will: lee really quickly i want to believe the polls are tightening because i want to leave we can have our finger on the pulse of the election to see how it's moving but how much credence should we give the poll s knowing what happened in 2016 and this idea that many are afraid or unwilling to answer which way they would vote to a polster? so how much credence do we give these movements in the polls anyway? >> i think you have to look at a couple things. don't look at nationwide polls, so you'll understand where sentiment is moving you're not going to understand the electoral college by looking at it you need to look at swing states and look at intensity. so when you look at how likely are people to vote that's another thing that's really important. the other thing you really need

to look at is independents and right now the independent race is tightening. there was a poll that came out this week, that released it and said that trump is ahead by 10 points with the independence. the race is going to be won and lost, because democrats and republicans have pretty much decided who they are voting for it's the independent voter whose could go either way and we've got to keep our eye on those votes. the other thing you've got to look at is theres interesting polling questions out there, there's a question about who are you going to vote for but then a question about who do you think your neighbor will vote for and that's also a big indicator because a lot of people are afraid to share their opinion. jedediah: lee carter we got to leave it here but thanks so much as always great stuff. we're now going to toss it over to rick reichmuth who i think has the latest on weather. rick, it's a little crisp here in new york city and i'm not complaining about it. rick: feels a little bit like fall doesn't it? this morning, out across parts of the northeast. humidity is way down, temperatures are coming down, it's behind the front, behind

really was the front that pushed out laura. laura is gone all that moisture is gone, but the tail end of it now what is that front is across parts of florida this time of the year one of the things we sometimes see is those little areas they stall out, and they kind of reform, so we might be watching our next system reform, if it does, the next named storm is nana which is an amazing name and it will be off sea, will not have any impact but there will be others behind it don't worry we are watching potentially coming maybe within about the next five to seven days. want to show you also big storms this morning across parts of arkansas that just got hit with laura and another batch of storm s coming this is our firing line this week, where some areas probably up to about five inches of rain so we'll watch for localized flooding. guys send it back to you. pete: rick thank you very much. director of national intelligence john lat cliff taking heat from democrats after rolling back in-person briefings on security. maria bartiromo has the exclusive interview and she

an exclusive interview with director of national intelligence, john ratcliffe as he faces democrat outrage, to curb leaks by scaling back in- person security briefings to congress instead doing it in writing here to discuss is "sunday morning futures" host maria bartiromo. good morning, maria. maria: hey there, team, thank you so much. great to talk with you. this is a developing story, but let me just lay it out for you. on july 31, the new director of national intelligence gave a briefing to all of congress, he wasn't obligated to do all of congress, only the intelligence agencies meaning the intel committee, the judiciary oversight committee, et cetera but he decided to do it because they requested for all of congress. this is on july 31. within meants, the part about russia was leaked, and you may remember, a couple of weeks ago in all of the newspapers like the new york times, and politico

, they had headlines about russia trying to meddle in the election again. that was a small portion of the briefing. there were other things like for example, china is trying to take down donald trump. china is trying to meddle in our elections as well, only they're boosting up joe biden. that was not leaked. the only thing that was leaked was the russia portion, to continue the narrative out there , that adam schiff has been planting now for three and a half-plus years counting. that's one of the reasons behind you're seeing a change in the way the dni will bring information forward so we're going to talk with john ratcliffe today in his first interview since being named dni about that as well as about the john durham probe also taking you to louisiana with senator kennedy to talk about the devastation from hurricane laura, we'll also have rick grenell and kim klacik after that knockout speech at the rnc coming up in about 10 minutes guys.

you do it right? >> that's right. we're all in that situation where we're kind of making due with what we have. i was actually working from this space in my basement last week and i converted it to the spot where kids can do virtual school but i found awesome products everyone could benefit from. the first is the wisper room. this is a sound-reduction enclosure that basically allows you to have a workstation and there's a desk in here, power solutions but whether a child was taking a test or maybe i need to get on an important phone call we could come in here and have nice privacy. it's even great for band practice which is good but we all know that's great to have a door, right? next up, we also wanted to have a spot for the kids to have great comfort while sitting in a chair. we know the kids don't do great when sitting for hours on end so a found a couple different options, this is a chair from human scale this thing is a modified exercise ball but it's really comfortable and this is a great extra seat for mom or dad to come sit next to the kids to assist if they neede now, we

also have the sento charities actually a stackable chair but it's amazingly comfortable. you can see that i put the exercise band around it and let the kids get the energy out and i have the foot rocker here that lets the kids interact with something to help keep their focus but if kids really have the wiggles we have the classroom glider. this is for grades 3-5 you can fit a five foot person on here and let them exercise and get their energy out while doing some assignments this is an awesome thing for the classroom or for the home. now, also, for power solutions and tech solutions we've got a couple things actually the desktop power center slim. this is a great easy clamp-on or bolt-on option that gives you u sb charging ports really clean. this thing is amazing and again this from lebron and finally, everybody can relate with items all over the place like your tablet. look at this. we can open up the tech hub 2

and have room for six devices we have tablets, ipads, games, but this also plugs right into the wall, has a power supply and cord management so at the end of the night, what can we do? we can plug in all of our devices just like this , close it away, and lock it put it in your pocket and we're ready to take this anywhere and everywhere we need to go so hopefully this is an exciting thing, folks that are struggling if you're kind of like me and my wife trying to figure out the best way of keeping the kiddos in a great learning environment while we're in this transitional time. jedediah: wow chip these are amazing i need that for when i'm on the show and keep my focus here. my wife is actually just over five foot and she actually fits on this thing so we can kick the kids off this as well, but i have all of these products up at wadeworkscreative.com and a bar on top of the website with a link with a blog with all of the
