"outnumbered" logo. >> i read about a family who lost their father, and they did it, and no one has one on this couch. >> no. >> none of us do, that's crazy. >> did you say the "outnumbered" logo? >> here is "america reports." >> the track of the storm, coming at us 100 plus miles an hour, a good time to board up. >> we are not concerned at all. >> a little more like freaked out, i understand the power and destruction of what hurricanes can do. >> i'm all set. >> got back from vacation and came home to this. >> they say mandatory evacuation, it's time to go. >> john: people in florida making preparations before hurricane ian hits the coast.
10:01 am
it could cause catastrophic flooding. >> aishah: i'm in for sandra smith. state and local officials are telling more than 2 million to leave their homes and get out of the way of the massive storm. ian strengthening to a category 3, ripping through western cuba, 125 mile per hour winds and heavy rains slamming the island and causing heavy flooding. >> john: i said good wednesday, only tuesday, wednesday is when it's go time in florida, just hours to go now until the storm makes landfall, many are attempting to avoid the storm-packed highways, and those hunkering down have been clearing supermarket shelves and emptying the gas pumps. >> aishah: and charles watson and max gordon are live in the tampa bay area, where officials are bracing for what could be the first direct hit on the region from a hurricane in more than a century, john. >> john: looking ugly there in
10:02 am
the next 36 hours. first to steve bender tracking ian for us. where is it headed, how strong is it going to be? >> we are going to see a significant storm system here, still a category 3 storm, it's lifted north of cuba and now enter the warm bath waters of the eastern gulf. notice the defined eye, another round of strengthening expected this afternoon, getting to a category 4 storm as it approaches the gulf side of florida. still some discrepancy where it wiand the impacts are going to be the same. we are looking at devastating storm surge, from tampa bay, to charlottes bay, and fort myers, ten feet of storm surge, enough to go into two-story homes. a lot of the areas are lifted off the ground, this is an historic storm surge ahead. widespread power outages as it moves inland and will impact all
10:03 am
of the peninsula of florida, so there is the hurricane warning in effect from tampa down towards naples, it will create the storm surge and inland like orlando could be seeing power, without power for quite a while as the hurricane winds continue to gust. so, we are tracking this out, looking like the impact will start to be felt later this afternoon and start to make landfall wednesday into thursday. we will track it each and every day here on fox weather. >> john: steve, thank you very much. >> aishah: now let's get to st. pete where that city along with nearby tampa could get the first direct hit by a major hurricane in more than 100 years. max gordon in st. petersburg there, what are folks expecting? >> concerns are growing here in the tampa-st. petersburg area,
10:04 am
and evacuations are underway. evacuation zones a, b, c and people in mobile homes are expected to get out. we are in a, it will worsen the next day or so. a state of emergency in every county, 5,000 national guard troops mobilized with 2,000 from other parts of the country as well. 26 school districts have been closed, and food, water, generators and pumps are staged before the landfall. power outages will be likely and the governor says restoring power is a top priority. here in pinellas county, they can reroute the power to prevent big outages.
10:05 am
as the storm draws near, people are scrambling for supplies. some gas stations have run out of fuel and drinking water off storm shelves. and generators and plywood, and many people say after they cover the windows they are going to get out. >> we don't know how bad it's going to get and where it will turn, and we have a huge oak tree next to the house, so if, you know, it can break the roof, break the house. >> roads are starting to get congested here in the tampa and st. petersburg area, and tampa international airport will be closing at 5:00 p.m. >> aishah: max, sometimes when i've covered hurricanes, we head to the grocery store to stock up on water and supplies. i don't know if you've been talking to folks down there in st. pete. is anyone deciding to stay and just ride this through and what are they telling you? >> yeah, we have talked to some folks who have decided to ride this thing out.
10:06 am
you know, as you mentioned at the top of the show, there has not been a major hurricane here in about 100 years, so a lot of folks here have seen near misses, they have not seen anything hit the area, so they say they are going to hunker down, as much food and water as possible and ride out the storm. but emergency officials say it's important to heed evacuation orders because even first responders are going to have to get out in some areas, there might not be any help. >> aishah: the biggest concern right now, making sure people heed the warning. max gordon live for us, thank you, max. >> john: across the bay in tampa, the city expected to be a bull's eye for ian, and we kind charles watson. what are residents doing to protect from the wind and water headed their way? >> john, they have taken this very seriously as you guys have been mentioning. they have not seen a storm of this magnitude in the tampa area since 1921, more than 100 years. so, safe to say they are not taking any chances.
10:07 am
you can see the folks here at this sandbagging station here in tampa filling up those sandbags to protect their property as hurricane ian approaches the west coast of florida. major concerns of flooding. between 8 and 10 feet of storm surge, a massive wall of water pushed inland on top of 15 inches of rainfall that could be dumped on this area. hillsboro county officials have amended mandatory evacuation order just a few moments ago to include people who live in both zone a and b, additional 90,000 people have to evacuate now. and so far folks seem to be taking it seriously. we have already seen tens of thousands of people decide to get out of here. this morning, governor desantis urging folks to get to higher ground. >> under the current evacuation orders, which are probably pascoe down to collier, it's over 2 million evacuate to
10:08 am
higher ground, and if you evacuate to higher ground in a structure that is sound, you are going to be fine. >> folks are really going to make those decisions whether or not they will or won't evacuate, because as ian approaches, the window becomes tighter and tighter. additionally, the governor says there are 5,000 florida national guard troops activated, they'll be here to help once ian makes landfall. also additional 2,000 national guardsmen from states across the country, serious situation here, guys, as ian approaches. back to you. >> john: everybody is trying to get out is running out of time, the latest discussion of the hurricane center is the track of the storm is moving a little faster than they first thought. also starting to move toward more toward the northeast, anybody's guess where it will hit but if it comes up tampa bay, configuration with access
10:09 am
to the gulf of mexico, it could push a huge wall of water into downtown tampa. >> yeah, that's true. and you know, we have been looking at the city of tampa's twitter, and they have actually been draining the hillsboro reservoir 12 inches to account for the rain. what the storm will do here is anybody's guess. as you can see behind me, folks are trying to prepare and do it quickly, john. >> john: charles watson for us there in tampa. thanks. stay safe, of course. for coverage, download the weather app and stream fox weather 24/7. i remember hurricane charley hit the west coast back in 2004 and sanibal island cut in half. >> aishah: it was so important that governor desantis earlier today said look, you know, you don't have to leave the state.
10:10 am
we just want you to evacuate your home, get to an emergency shelter. you may not even have to leave the city or county, just get to higher ground and should be good enough and if it does track to the northeast you can go back home. >> john: see where it goes. it's not that far away but the track can move. so stay tuned, make sure you do. midterm elections, the argument on abortion rights is energizing the democratic base and that is making the road to retake congress a little less predictable than back before the dobbs decision. should the gop be worried in the next six weeks of election. marc thiessen is a columnist, speech writer and fox news contributor. hot off the press the latest marc thiessen column where you argue that abortion is not going to be the factor in the midterms that a lot of people believed it
10:11 am
would be. >> they did, and look, if you want proof, just look at the state of georgia. georgia is a purple state that gave biden the presidency and back in the hands of democrats. the supreme court in june handed back abortion to decisions to the states to governors like brian kemp. kemp signed a law in 2019, that restricted abortion in his state to six weeks. so, he should be in big trouble but he's not. he's leading in every single poll. >> john: there's a story -- we have the poll, put it up on the screen, follow along. go ahead, talk about the numbers there. >> yeah, so the democrats say they are worried that stacey abrams is losing and no chance of catching up and another poll he has six points up, and herschel walker is behind five points, so clearly it's not
10:12 am
abortion that is putting kemp ahead and walker behind, it's something else. the same thing is happening in the state of ohio where the governor, mike dewine, signed a fetal heartbeat bill, bans all abortion at six weeks, he's up by 17, and vance is in a statistical tie. in new hampshire, the governor signed a 24-week abortion ban, a big deal in the state of new hampshire, considered very restrictive, leading by almost 20 points and the senate candidate is losing by 8. so the governors who signed the abortion bans are not being hurt at all by the supreme court decision. it's the senate candidates who have nothing to do with abortion. ask yourself, why is that? obviously not abortion, it's something else and the reality a lot of the states are republicans nominated really weak candidates not connected with the voters for reasons that
10:13 am
have nothing to do with abortion. >> john: deep in your column, glad we can get the numbers on the street to follow along, deeper in the column you say the dobbs decision, by was widely believed to bring the two sides together, you say the dobbs decision could not have come at a better moment. when t-- today the only americas luxury of voting on abortion are liberal elites insulated from the economic disasters hitting the rest of the country. voter registration among women in the suburbs but you don't think it's going to be that big of a deal come november 8th. >> so for example, in georgia, the women have been outpacing men in voter registration since the supreme court decision by six points. and kemp is doing great. in new hampshire, they are
10:14 am
outpacing by 11 points, i'm sorry, ohio, and governor dewine is fine. it's not the abortion issue and the reality is democrats seem to think abortion is a great issue for them, they are the extremists on this issue. it's the republicans who support 15 week or six-week abortion ban which have majority support on the substance, they are with the republicans and also the enthusiasm gap. democrats got upset about the liberal democrats pro choice got upset about the decision and said we are going to vote. that enthusiasm gap has closed. there was an economist poll came out, 11 point enthusiasm advantage for republicans going into the election. i don't think -- the republicans may not do as well as they hoped but not because of the supreme court and abortion. >> john: all right, marc. a fascinating column, goes against the conventional wisdom, worth a read. thank you for joining us to preview, appreciate it.
10:15 am
that's a big change from the way we thought. >> aishah: interesting, mark's last answer is the gop strategy saying the democrat way or the far left way is extreme because for a while the gop did not have an answer to the abortion question they had to kind of figure it out, everybody was on a different page. senator graham's bill threw the gop leadership for a loop there. >> john: inflation is high, interest rates are on the way up, gas prices, changing the debate. >> aishah: wall street trying to recover after opening in a bear market territory for the first time in two years. economists worrying the u.s. could be headed for a steep economic downturn. how much is president biden's spending spree to blame here. >> john: and out of control crime, a wawa torn to pieces in
10:16 am
philadelphia. why the ransacking could have long lasting economic damage for the store's employees. veteran homeowners, prices are going up fast. the grocery store and the gas station alone are taking a big chunk out of our paychecks. fortunately, you've earned the valuable va home loan benefit. the newday 100 va loan lets you borrow up to 100% of your home's value, not just 80%. and with home values near record highs, that could mean a lot of money. let newday turn your home's equity into cash.
10:20 am
>> john: a brutal assault in new york city and we warn you the video is graphic. shows a suspect beating a 33-year-old security guard who was heading to work at jfk airport. beating so bad, the victim says she could lose sight in one eye. 41-year-old foster is facing felony assault charges. he has a lengthy rap sheet, what a surprise there, including a conviction for murdering his 82-year-old foster grandmother in a brutal beating when he was just 14 years old.
10:21 am
it's unclear at this point how long he was in prison. >> aishah: it really is incredible when you see this, you think about the after effects just how crime has skyrocketed since the 2020 george floyd protests and now watching private businesses, including johns hopkins university held a town hall creating their own private police because crime is so bad in baltimore. >> john: crime is out of control, and the fact so many criminals can commit a crime and then be back on the streets with no consequences is certainly not doing anything. >> aishah: exactly. the dow so far, another day of losses. the dow in the midst of a brutal selloff here, and closing yesterday in bear territory. bring in jackie deangelis to break down what we are watching here. people like my dad every day
10:22 am
watch the dow tank and think to themselves when am i going to be able to retire, there goes my 401(k), so read the tea leaves. what does the market tell you about what's to come? >> you are right, a lot of people look at the dow because it's a basket of stocks across different sectors that are supposed to be a barometer for how overall companies are doing in this country. and so we saw a little bit of a bounce this morning on wall street, we like to call it a dead cat bounce, you have sold off so much some buyers come back into the market. as you can see, overall momentum here is to the down side, down 2 200 points here, you combine it with the fact that interest rates are rising, and the picture, unfortunately, only looks to be a little bit more bleak, that there will be more selling to come. one of the reasons is you think about companies when interest rates were low, they leveraged
10:23 am
themselves, they were taking advantage of cheap money to grow their businesses and help contribute to the overall growth in the economy, but that debt is going to cost a lot more to service now and the indication we get from the fed is rates will go higher. i was sitting down with some investors last night who essentially told me distressed debt investors, they bargain hunt for companies in trouble in times like these, and says a lot about the handwriting on the wall. in the case of your father or somebody close to retirement it's going to spell trouble. people have to delay retirement plans or not be able to retire and have to just continue working to be able to get through this. >> aishah: jackie, what's scary about this, not just our country but globally. markets are scared from around the world. >> absolutely. look, of course we are watching overseas with russia and ukraine, watching commodity prices as a result of that, there has been some contribution
10:24 am
from tightening supplies to the inflation that we have seen in this country, but it does not account for everything that we have seen. a lot of it had to do with our spending here at home, a lot of handout, stimulus checks, student loan bailouts, even the washington post are akin to writing more stimulus checks at a time the country is in trouble and inflation is at a 40-year high, so watching global events certainly but also need to focus on what's happening here and now, especially as we head into the midterms. >> aishah: and let's talk about the spending. new numbers from the congressional budget office, the student loan cancellation the president will take executive action on and worse than what we thought, now 420 billion, what it's going to look like over the course of that time. so by the way, this is all on top of the covid spending we have already spent, including billions in fraud, money we will never see ever again. every sign, jackie, seems to be
10:25 am
indicating to stop spending. >> you would think. that's what reasonable people think, aishah. a lot of zeros on the screen. let me break it down for you. the cbo is estimating that $400 billion in the cancellation over 30 years, they are tacking on another $20 billion to that because the administration is extending the pause of payments, that's what it will add, and then a final thing, and the cbo did not add this in. it's the fact the administration wants to bring down the threshold, percentage of your salary that you have to pay these loans back, right, to give people more access to capital and that could tack on another $120 billion, and that is where the washington post came in and said this is stimulus at its best. >> worrying a lot of families across the country right now, not a good situation we are in, jackie deangelis, thank you for breaking it down for us. >> john: candy colored fentanyl discovered in more states in the nation as the potentially lethal drug continues to stream across
10:26 am
the border. officials sound the alarm warning parents ahead of halloween. kansas senator roger marshall joins us ahead. >> aishah: florida is bracing for impact at hurricane ian intensifies and churns ever so closer. complete team coverage as we continue to track its path. >> the impacts are going to be far, far broader than just where the eye of the storm happens to make landfall. in some areas there will be catastrophic flooding and life-threatening storm surge. that's a lot of cash back. are you gonna stop me? uh-oh... i'm almost there... too late! boom! earn big time with chase freedom unlimited with no annual fee. how do you cashback? chase. make more of what's yours.
10:27 am
10:30 am
ah, these bills are crazy. she has no idea she's sitting on a goldmine. well she doesn't know that if she owns a life insurance policy of $100,000 or more she can sell all or part of it to coventry for cash. even a term policy. even a term policy? even a term policy! find out if you're sitting on a goldmine. call coventry direct today at the number on your screen, or visit coventrydirect.com. >> john: pro life activist mark hauck is being arraigned for allegedly shoving a volunteer at a philadelphia planned parenthood last year, a bitter back and forth of his arrest by the fbi. his wife says agents used
10:31 am
excessive force, a claim that the fbi denies. it started as an assault allegation. why is the federal government involved? >> john, that really depends on who you ask. first of all, he is charged with violating the face act, a federal crime to forcibly interfere with someone seeking or providing reproductive healthcare. he was the president of a catholic men's ministry, accused of twice shoving the volunteer outside the planned parenthood last october. he said he was acting to defend his 12-year-old son who was being harassed. according to hauck's attorney, the allegation had been dismissed by the courts in philadelphia but then taken on by the justice department a year later. agents arrested him at his home on friday and after his wife said 25 to 30 fbi agents swarmed their property and traumatized their seven children, sharing "they said they were going to break in if he didn't open it, they had about five guns pointed at my husband, myself, and
10:32 am
basically my kids." so the fbi claiming that is not true. they say they operated with standard practice. john, back to you. >> john: we'll keep watching that house, the president is speaking, he was talking about lowering healthcare costs and now the hurricane. >> 3.7 million meals and hundreds of generators. i just spoke this morning with areas that will likely be hit. the mayors of tampa, st. pete and clearwater, all of them, all of them are in the storm's path and they are focused on the safety of their communities and doing everything they can to get people out of harm's way. i told each one of them my conversations separately. whatever they need, i mean this sincerely, contact me directly and they know how to do that. i have a lot of personnel down there already. we are here to support them in every way we can. second thing i would like to mention, the citizens and the potential impact area should
10:33 am
obey the instructions of local officials. evacuate when ordered, and be prepared for when it's for the storm when it comes. evacuations have already been called for, and apparently they are going along fairly orderly way in each of the three cities. your safety is more important than anything and i know our hearts are with everyone who will feel the effects of this storm and we'll be with you every step of the way, we are not going away. as we prepare for ian's landfall of florida, i remain focused, excuse me, on helping puerto rico recover from the aftermath of hurricane fiona. hundreds of fema and personnel are there, search and rescue teams, army corps of engineers and other experts from around the country. fema has distributed $40 million in direct assistance to survivors to help them begin to rebuild their homes and also providing $700 of direct assistance to families displaced
10:34 am
from their homes to meet critical needs of food, first aid, prescriptions, baby food and fuel now. immediately approved the major disaster declaration to provide individuals with public assistance, on public assistance to help their communities recover as well. this declaration will get federal resources out quickly and help people start to rebuild their lives. they have been through a rough period since the last hurricane. and as part of the declaration, i've authorized a 100% federal funding for debris clearance and power and water restoration, shelter and food for the entire month, and to the people of puerto rico reeling from hurricane maria five years later, we are with you and moving forward with you and are not going to go home until it gets done. now today's events about medicare. you know, i want to share the progress that we have seen of making, to bring down healthcare costs and strengthen medicare,
10:35 am
which is for so many seniors the only thing they can rely upon and we have worked really hard to maintain it. the way i think about it is the way my dad talked about the way so many of you at home talk about issues around the kitchen table. how much -- how much of your monthly bills, how much do you have to pay for the necessities and will there be enough at the end of the month for just a little bit of breathing room, as he used to say, just a little breathing room. a big cost and big concern for most folks is prescription drugs and other healthcare. reducing that cost and concern is one of my top priorities. that's why i signed into law the inflation reduction act, one of the most significant laws in our history. finally delivered the promises many of us have made in the audience as well that the american people have had to undergo for decades we are going to change. for example, we pay more for prescription drugs than any other advance nation in the
10:36 am
world. and there's no good reason for it. for years many of us have been trying to fix this problem, but for years, for years big pharma has stood in the way. not this year. this year the american people won and big pharma lost. for years no check on how high or fast big pharma can raise drug prices. but that ends now, now big pharma tries to raise drug prices faster than inflation they have to rebate the money to medicare. and if you are on medicare and have diabetes, insulin is capped at $35 a month for prescription. bob just told you what a difference it's going to make in his life and what it could have made in his life had it been and a long time ago and now we wanted to be the case for
10:37 am
everybody. peace of mind. cut the cost of insulin for everyone, including hundreds of thousands of children with type 1 diabetes but unfortunately that was in the bill the republicans were able to get the votes to strike that out. it costs only $ten to make a bottle of this insulin, ten buck and there's no patent on it, ten bucks, and they charge 30 to more times that cost. just imagine being a parent. imagine being the parent of a kid suffering from type 1 diabetes knowing you didn't have the money. let's say you are paying 5, 6, $700 a month, you don't have it. how in god's name, not a joke, how in god's name do you look at that child knowing you can't afford it, you have no way of getting it. how do you undergo that.
10:38 am
my dad would say not only deprives that child of a healthy existence but it deprives a parent of their dignity, dignity. you know, just imagine, just imagine. if we are able to provide it to everyone in america at 35 bucks a shot. look, we are going to go back at this and we are going to lower the cost of lifesaving insulin for children as well as families for everybody, whether they are on medicare or not. [applause] >> john: president biden in the rose garden talking about lowering healthcare costs and prescription drugs and update on hurricane ian, joined by senator roger marshall from the great state of kansas who also is a physician. you've been listening to the president talk about lowering the prescription drugs, what do you think he said? >> certainly we want to lower the cost of prescription drugs, especially the out of pocket
10:39 am
expenses, but the president's plan will prevent a cure for alzheimer's and cancers, he's driving up the cost of healthcare so they are going to pass on the cost to other people in the plan. we need more competition and so proud bipartisan legislation, we helped co-author increased competition, and get to market, in the next six months two are coming to market, that will drive the cost of healthcare down. >> aishah: and also talk about the other health issue that parents all over the country are watching. rainbow fentanyl is in 21 different states, and halloween is around the corner, and parents need to talk to their little ones about the drug. i was in west virginia talking to kids, they know cartels are targeting them. why are we in this situation now where it's gotten to this point
10:40 am
where kids are having to be the adults in the room? >> aishah, that's a great question, i wish the national media would ask our president that. starting with the opened borders, allowed the cartel to bring drugs across and flood our markets. america losing hundreds of americans, mostly young adults. the fentanyl candy, looks like skittles or sweet tarts when i was growing up, it's at least in 20 states. some friends in kansas contacted me and said they found some. it's so strong, maybe just smelling it or touching it kill you. one of the biggest health epidemics in the country. >> that looks like halloween candy, and this warning from the marion county sheriff's office in california saying nationwide law enforcement agencies are finding more illegal substances disguised as candy, with halloween around the corner, parents need to be more vigilant about what candy their children have in their possession. parents, keep an eye on your
10:41 am
children's candy and if you think your child ingested something, call 911 immediately. when i was growing up it was razor blades or pins in apples, and now it's fentanyl. >> why has the president turned his back on america, why does he let it come across the border. it looks like candy. warn the parents. only trick-or-treat at places you know, stick to your neighborhood, friends and relatives and if it's not packaged, don't touch it. a lot will be in a funny look package as well. >> a bipartisan group of senators on the hill, tennessee, west virginia, hard hit states that are asking for more money from the federal government to really clamp down on drug trafficking that's going on through their states. what do states need and what can congress do to really put the pressure on the government to give them more funding, because this is a bipartisan issue. this is affecting everybody's kids. >> aishah, right now we are
10:42 am
putting our fingers in the dike. this is coming by the truckload now, seven tons of fentanyl apprehended last year. one of the things we are doing to designate the cartel as terrorists and by doing that, give law enforcement and prosecutors more teeth, more flexibility, allow the department of the treasury to freeze the assets of the cartels as well. so that's why we need all the government approach, we will lead a unanimous consent legislation to declare the cartel as terrorists. >> you have grandkids, i met them over the weekend. are you talking to them about this? >> a little bit. they are 4 and 6 years old. basically we have ton monitoring what they are doing. i don't think they would understand this. gosh, we hate to think that our kids can't trick-or-treat as well. i think it's my job as a grandfather, as a parent, to watch out for them as well. but we should be talking to our kids. >> john: you have to remember the cartels are deliberately targeting middle school kids, hook 'em early, you have 'em for
10:43 am
life. senator, doctor, thanks for dropping by. now video shows about 100 vandals ransacking a wawa convenience store in philadelphia. how rising crime is affecting business owners. >> aishah: and thousands are protesting in russia or just fleeing the country over vladimir putin's new military draft. former state department spokes pan morgan ortegez is going to join us next hour. no upfront costs at all to get the cash you need. veterans get more at newday. >> tech: when you have auto glass damage, let safelite come to you. ♪ pop rock music ♪ >> tech: my customer enjoys time with her family. so when her windshield got a crack... she scheduled with safelite in just a few clicks. we came to her house... ...replaced the windshield... and installed new wipers. that's service on her time. >> grandkid: here you go!

>> john: how is that for being creative. a north carolina woman found a sweet way to stand out while looking for a job at nike. carly blackburn printed her resume' on a cake before getting an instacart driver to drop it off in oregon. she was set on working for the iconic company and felt a bold move was needed. it reportedly paid off.
10:48 am
she has now connected with the employer at nike. >> aishah: of course it paid off, we are here talking about it on fox news, that was bright, smart. >> john: good thing they did not follow tradition and smear the writing before they cut the cake. >> aishah: 100 vandals ransacking a wawa convenience store in philadelphia, throwing food all over the place, damaging furniture as workers are struggling to stop the chaos, they obviously cannot. jeff flock of fox business is live in philly. this is happening a lot, not an isolated incident. >> unfortunately that is true, both at wawa stores here in philadelphia, as well as a restaurant recently, yeah, that's the one behind me where this all took place on saturday night about 8:30. kids coming out of a roller rink wound up at the wawa and just all hell started breaking loose. you mentioned the tape, police have now released that tape, although there was a lot on social media already, asking for help in identifying the

perpetrators. mostly juveniles, though, although they say they could be charged with felony riot. about $10,000 worth of damage, and you know, wawa is an interesting case because although, you know, it's a privately owned company, the fact is that the people behind the counters often own part of the company because employee stock ownership program, they own about 50% of the company. so, be careful who you are trashing when you are trashing the store. police just disgusted by it. listen. >> we cannot have this type of behavior happening in this city. again, the business community doesn't deserve that, the citizens of the city don't deserve it. there were people in this establishment getting items and they don't deserve to have to be placed in harm's way to be blunt about it. >> and if you look at the numbers in philadelphia, you know, crime is a problem in a lot of places, some places more than others, philadelphia is one of those. violent crime up 6% as of last
10:50 am
week in philadelphia. retail theft up more than 30%, commercial burglaries up almost 50% and gun robbery almost 60%, armed robbery with a gun. that's in contrast to some other parts of the country, homicides are down nationwide by 2%, rape is down as well, although violent crime and robbery up a little bit. but it's bad here, and i'll tell you, those scenes, you know, i got in trouble when i was a kid, but i don't know, not that bad. >> aishah: not like that, jeff, neither did i. things have changed. >> john: major political shift in europe with right wing parties performing well in the italian and swedish elections, voters concerned about immigration and crime. bring you the director of the heritage foundation margaret thatcher center for freedom, it's good to see you.
10:51 am
so, we have in italy, georgia maloney, probably going to become italy's first prime minister, a hard right candidate. and in sweden, formed by neo-nazis and skin heads likely to be the largest party in the sweden party, the vox party in spain, marine lepin made it into the final round in france. since the end of world war ii, western europe has identified with liberalism more than anything else. what's causing the shift? >> many things, thanks for having me on the show and as you mentioned, we are looking at a political revolution taking place in italy with the country's first female prime minister about to take power there, georgia maloney, who is somebody who stands for very robust conservative principles, and i think what we are seeing in italy is a rejection of the ruling political elites in that
10:52 am
country. traditionally, of course, on the left, and rejection of sort of liberal dominance over the course of many decades and maloney has vowed to stand up to the european union, vowed to basically control italy's borders, she has also promised to stand up to the politically -- political correctness to the indoctrination of the woke left, basically. so maloney is changing business as usual in italy, but it's important to point out she is somebody who is in favor of very strong free market principles, she is a supporter of nato, she has strongly backed sending military support to ukraine in the fight against russia, and she is seen by many in europe actually as a strong trans atlanticist, and liz truss, the new british prime minister, sent a strong note of congratulations to the italian prime minister and so i think the u.k. is
10:53 am
looking forward to a close robust partnership with the italian government. so that's very significant. but certainly the winds of change blowing across europe. >> john: ok, so that's europe and great analysis nile, what's going on in italy. more broadly across europe, what is leading to the shift to the right? >> i think that what you have seen in countries from, you know, poland to hungary, to sweden, also spain as well, i think growing support for conservative partisan movements, rejection of the sort of liberal open borders approach. huge concerns over mass migration into europe. also i think that if you look at figures like maloney, for example, all the leaders of poland, hungary, these are figures who strongly defend the christian identity of europe and they are also culturally very, very conservative, and they have spoken out against the, what
10:54 am
they see as the pernicious and what is happening in the united states, they don't want to see the far left wing ideology imposed in europe, and so you are seeing a backlash against the left on multiple fronts across europe but also against the european union, heavily centralized bureaucratic dictatorial in style, the british left the e.u. several years ago. there are many in europe today like maloney who view the european union and its leadership as problematic, so we are seeing the rise of euro skepticism across europe, that will grow and grow. >> italy, the remnants of fascism to say oh, my god, it's the return of mousillini, she denies that, and adheres to traditional family values. what she said in a speech to the world congress of families in
10:55 am
2019. listen here. >> why is the family an enemy? why is the family so frightening? there is a simple answer to these questions. because it defines us. because it is our identity. because everything that defines us is now an enemy. fires will be kindled to testify 2 and 2 make 4, and swords drown to prove leaves are green in summer. that time has arrived. we are ready. thank you. >> john: she's quoting chesterton at the end, the overriding message for many in western europe, family values and freedoms are heretical. final thought. >> georgia maloney denounced italy's fascist past and they are part of the mainstream conservative right in europe and they believer in traditional
10:56 am
values, they believe in christianity, they believe in defending the family and those are key reasons why they are doing so well in the polls in italy. >> john: nile gardner, always great to get your take on things. >> aishah: update on the path of hurricane ian. fox news and weather are fanned out across florida. we'll have the latest on the path of this storm. also the great education debate taking center stage in the midterms. the republicans focusing on parents' rights. will it be a winning issue like it was last year? former education secretary betsy devos joins us next. formulated with nourishing, prebiotic oat. it's clinically proven to moisturize dry skin for 24 hours. aveeno®
