great to have you here, jacqui. >> jacqui: i'm jacqui heinrich in for john roberts, he's off today. a crime story terrifying people on the north side of chicago. just this morning, a spray of bullets ringing out at a frat house party to kick off homecoming weekend at southern university in baton rouge leaving nine people wounded. >> sandra: about this time yesterday in cleveland when a gunman stormed a barber shop and shot five people, one of the wounded still fighting for his life. >> jacqui: and families on bucket list vacations cannot get away from the crime targeted at their hotel on a disney world vacation. >> this morning to head out to go to disney and the truck was missing. i've had iwatches, a lot of people said the same thing has happened to them. >> sandra: in the neighborhood known as wrigleyville in chicago, the closest thing to crime used to be rooftops giving fans a free view of the cubs

action at wrigley field, but the neighborhood has been hijacked by a violent group of men grabbing people at gunpoint and taking them hostage to rob them of everything they are carrying. >> jacqui: mike tobin has the details from wrigleyville, and not the part of town where people are on guard for violence. >> no, jacqui, this really is an example of the criminals becoming more bold and the violence spilling over to where it impacts anyone. recognize the friendly confines of wrigley field, one of the last neighborhood ballparks in the nation and a lot of bars, restaurants, rooftops, if we look across the street, that's the cubbybear, known for live music, and dave grohl of the foo fighters played there. saturday 1:00 a.m., individuals forced into cars, sometimes at

gunpoint, driven around, relieved of their wallets and phones and dropped off at another location. and victims describe a gray sedan. what is really shocking and hard for the people here who again on their livelihoods because people need to get safely to and from the bars. >> it's terrifying. i know people who have been robbed. it's carjackings are more common and it's just scary. >> i walk around here all the time, so many businesses, especially restaurant options around here that that's just really scary pattern to hear developing, especially because, i mean, what are you supposed to do about that, not walk on the sidewalk anymore? >> and now you have halloween weekend coming, usually the bars here are packed, public crawls planned, a parade. so the business owners and area leaders are calling on the chicago police understaffed,

undersupported by city leadership and overworked to provide extra patrols. back to you in new york. >> jacqui: tough situation there. thanks so much, mike tobin in chicago. >> sandra: america's crime crisis truly hitting home for a heart broken connecticut community. grieving the loss of two police officers. family and friends gathering for the joint funeral of bristol police lieutenant dustin demonte, and alex hamzy. >> both were killed in the line of duty just over a week ago while answering a 911 call. investigators say it was used to lure those officers into an ambush. a third officer was injured but survived the attack. >> sandra: and san francisco's small businesses closing down in waves as open air drug markets take over that city. the mayor forced to apologize, not to them but woke critics who

say she made an insensitive comment. jonathan, what did she say? >> well, let's get first to what exactly mayor london breed said and what she was apologizing for. in an interview with local media in san francisco, she said she wanted to talk about the reality of the drug situation in the city's tenderloin neighborhood and added "there are unfortunately a lot of people who come from a particular country who come from honduras, and a lot of people who are dealing drugs happen to be of that ethnicity." now, some in the latino community were offended by those remarks, and the mayor's denial of accusations that law enforcement officers have been racially profiling and policing the tenderloin neighborhood. breed said story, issuing a statement, i want to apologize to the latino community for what i said and how i said it. in trying to explain what is happening in the tenderloin, i

failed to accurately and comprehensively discuss what is an incredibly complex situation in our city and central america. parts of the tenderloin district are an open air drug market and the mayor has previously admitted the city has essentially let down residents there. >> kids are walking by things that they shouldn't see on their ways to school. no one should have to see or experience that. >> in her apology statement, breed also said san francisco officials had helped grow the drug problem by not effectively prosecuting dealers, and she promised more action saying she has a moral obligation to shut down those dealers. easier said than done, sandra. >> sandra: a lot of pressure on the leaders as things continue to get worse there. jonathan, thank you. >> jacqui: breaking news in philadelphia where police are

issuing a warning after two girls were attacked and sexual assaulted in the last 24 hours. the victims were on their way to school and the suspect has still not been caught. that is just some of of the criminal activity that has soft on crime philadelphia d.a. larry krasner as he's called by some fighting for his job. lawmakers are weighing in whether to impeach him, a man released is now a suspect in a deadly shooting. bryan, krasner held a press conference today. what did he say about all this? >> jacqui, good afternoon. philadelphia's progressive d.a. larry krasner says ultimately that his progressive policies are not to blame for the city's surging and record crime situation. in fact, he laid blame on to the republican-led bipartisan committee that is efforting to impeach him saying the effort is illegal and politically

motivated. >> straight up this is an effort to impeach someone for political purposes who has done nothing corrupt and nothing illegal because they want to erase philadelphia's votes. straight up. that's what it is. they want to impeach our ideas. >> both democrats and republicans voted to hold krasner in contempt for not cooperating. the family members of murder victims have testified against the d.a. >> i live less than five blocks away from where my daughter was murdered so i look at, is it something you are doing to prevent another young woman from being in the same situation and i don't see that. >> this as we are learning a convicted murderer who was released thanks to krasner is now wanted again for murder. police are searching for 32-year-old jamir harris after he allegedly drove two gunmen who shot and killed a 50-year-old man in the back of the head last month. in 2012, harris was convicted of

murder but was exonerated thanks to krasner's new conviction integrity unit which found new evidence. but the judge in that case was highly critical of krasner's office's handling of the case and not confident in that investigation. this is happening in the context of the crucial senate race. dr. mehmet oz trying to attach john fetterman to krasner saying fetterman endorsed krasner and also praised that unit that he created. jacqui. >> jacqui: thank you bryan. and victims who blame his land ling will be live next hour on "the story." >> sandra: two of the top issues heading to the polls, financial safety and inflation, and growing number of americans believe president biden is not paying enough attention to the issues that matter.

let's bring in brian kilmeade, co-host of "fox & friends" and host of one nation, i'll ask you what you have coming up in just a moment, but i almost was not paying attention, i was asking you, brian, i know you guys on "fox & friends" spend a lot of time talking to voters about what matters, 18 days from election day, and how is it possible, you see monmouth polls like this. has the president given enough attention to the voters that are important to your family, and look at the response. those who say -- only 31% say he's giving enough attention to it, 63% wish he would give more. this is shocking but not shocking because we have seen this, and we have not seen democrats pivot to these issues that americans say matter most to them. >> a couple of things, from president biden, he started off the week by saying abortion is his number one focus, he's going to be it, blow up the filibuster and he's going to have to do that and see if he can hold the senate in order to accomplish

that. not only is he not getting internal polls that show that's what people care about, he's not paying attention to the public polls. so if you look at what president biden is doing and then see the attorney general of new york now revisiting when it comes to crime, number 2, 3 of most issues of concerns for people in the suburbs as well as in the cities and now they are saying revisit the 0 cash bail of letting people out. we are starting to realize that is a bit of an issue. when you see john fetterman saying yeah, i am not for everyone getting second chances, he is trying to paint himself as a moderate and then other people like tim ryan trying to pretend like he was not going along with every thing happening with the attorney generals. so the ones in the trenches, democrats know they have to change, the president of the united states does not have the staff that's letting him know that abortion is seventh on the best list for abortion on things that people care about right now. >> sandra: you can point to so many races happening all over

the country right now that are now surprisingly toss-ups, like the rhode island second district we just had allan fung on a few minutes ago saying he's been able to make that race a toss-up, ok, and a district that has not gone to a republican in 30 years by what? focusing on energy and inflation. it's that simple. >> right. and i'll just expand the conversation a little bit. in oregon, you have a republican leading the governor's race, has not done that in about 40 years. i saw a poll coming in here from, in new york the governor's race, zeldin is within striking distance, up one or down one. he was down by 24 a month ago. taxes are high, number one state to exit from is new york by 15%, 7% over california, people think i might be a democrat or independent but i have to try something different. >> sandra: i have to ask you

about this, ok. i'm kind of springing this on you, but we have been watching the developments with pfizer, obviously the cdc unanimously voted 15 of them voted to now say that even though it's still an emergency authorization, the covid vaccine for 12 and under, but this can now be considered a mandate for public schools in this country, the covid vaccine. pfizer, by the way, is going to make out big time on this and wall street as well. wells fargo analyst is saying because pfizer is hiking the price of the vaccine, it's going to add around 2.5 to 3 billion revenue for their shots. is anybody looking that that is happening, but the news is pfizer amid that decision by the cdc has announced they are hiking prices for their vaccine. the amount they charge the u.s. government. >> is unbelievable the cdc is making the recommendation. people look at the word

recommendation, and what's the big deal? >> dr. siegel disagrees with you, by the way. >> recommendation, most states will take it. they are going to say ok, the cdc says we are going to do. we are going to watch to know how unpopular this is. i think you are going to be hard pressed to see any single governor say i saw what the cdc says, i'm mandating that for my kids. you saw governor desantis says give me a microphone, we are not changing anything. >> lee zeldin as well. >> if he's current. hochul, you won't hear a word from. it's unpopular. so we are going to see if the 16 democratic governors are going to rally around it. but it makes one -- everyone is fundamentally suspicious, it's not a vaccine, it's a shot. that's a flu shot, it's the design of the flu shot. number three, what are you giving these kids? giving them the third variant, the fourth, the original shot, and since when are kids vulnerable enough to mandate it for the 100 million who are going to school.

>> sandra: not taking away from the fact it can be very effective and families can still choose to get this for their children, it's the idea of the mandate we go to the state level and a big question for a lot of these governors right now and those that are running for these governorships in a lot of these states, why we put the question into lee zeldin, he's going to join us next week. but wall street analysts are saying it's going to be a celebration for wall street. they are going to make out. >> and if you are a parent and you see pfizer will make a boone on this and think capitalism overwhelming the thought process in the cdc, and yeah, this shot might work, but what's the risk? we don't know the risk on the kids. you might say i want them protected, what are the chances of that kid suffering something else along with it. >> sandra: there is a debate. >> make your own decisions. >> dr. siegel disagrees. the cdc unanimously voted for

this to be given to the kids 12 and under. we'll have him back next week. i've already gone over time with you. i bring up the wall street angle, this has obviously been a huge revenue source for the big drug companies. pfizer, and wells fargo writes in their note that they are hiking the price of this vaccine beyond even what they expected, and the wall street analysts at wells fargo says this green lights the other big pharma companies to hike their price for the vaccine as well. >> jacqui: my bigger question is how are they going to do this? the biden administration just tried to do this big push for boosters because only 5% of the eligible population has even gotten them at this point and they are really sort of scaling down their hopes for how many people will. so when you put a mandate in the mix, what does that do? >> sandra: and a lot of the candidates running for, in these gubernatorial races, it's going to be a big question what they

will do if elected, where they will come down on a mandate at the state level for those kids 12 and under. >> and will they tell the voters before they go to the polls. just into the fox newsroom, the january 6th select committee is issuing a subpoena to former president trump. demands he produce documents to the committee by november 4th and appear for testimony next month. the committee accuses the former president of personally orchestrating an effort to overturn the 2020 election. so far, no response from trump or his legal team to the committee's somebody. >> sandra: jacqui, thank you. also ahead, meghan markle receiving backlash once again. imagine that. grabbing more headlines. this time she's grabbing the headlines for trashing the show that gave her her big break, "deal or no deal." >> jacqui: doj is accused of double standards after attacks on pro life centers. >> sandra: 18 days to go to

election day, republicans are gaining ground in some key senate races. we are watching it, shannon bream is, too. she'll weigh in next. hi, shannon. cash out loan from newday usa. it's called the newday 100 because it lets veterans borrow up to 100% of their home's value. not just 80% like some typical loans. that extra cash can make a huge difference in these times of skyrocketing prices. here's more good news: home values have skyrocketed too. that means even more cash! take out an average of $60,000 to pay down your high-rate credit card debt, consolidate your second mortgage, personal loans, and car loans, and lower your payments by $600 every month. best of all, there are absolutely no upfront out-of-pocket costs with this loan. and even if you have credit concerns, give us a call. the va has granted newday automatic authority to make our own approval decisions. when lenders say no to a veteran, newday can say yes.

>> sandra: new concerns over double standards at the department of justice which has stayed busy filing charges related to attacks against abortion clinics, but seems to be turning a blind eye on the uptick in crimes against pro life pregnancy centers across the country. david spunt reporting live at the justice department for us. doj is not disputing this report?

>> the department of justice has not indicted one person this year in 2022 for waging an attack on some of these pro life businesses citing the face act. the face act is a law that was passed in 1994 by president bill clinton signed it into law, punishes people to injure, in dim tate or interfere with anyone seeking abortion services or pro life pregnancy counseling services. pro life groups are calling foul because while doj has plenty of cases in court against those who have attacked abortion clinics, we cannot find one instance where doj in the last few months really even this year has charged someone for attacking a pro life pregnancy center, and we know, sandra, the fbi is seeing an unusual uptick in attacks on the pro life centers, following the overturning of roe v. wade, christopher ray told me so this summer. >> there is a right way under the first amendment to express

yourself and violence and destruction of property is not it. and that's what the rule of law is all about, and we have seen a number of attacks against faith-based organizations, pregnancy resource centers. >> sandra, 26 people have been indicted under the face act this year, all of them attacked pro choice-related businesses or abortion clinics. there are 0 indictments on the book for the pro life centers. i reached out to the department of justice, no comment to the numbers on the site. i did speak with the fbi, the fbi still continues to investigate both sides of this issue. >> sandra: david spunt at the doj for us, thank you. >> jacqui: new poll numbers are showing republicans gaining ground in key senate races in arizona and nevada. fox news power rankings have those races as toss-ups and key

pick-up opportunities for republicans trying to win control. immigration and the border crisis, of course, big issues out west. how high are they playing, though, in voters' decision making, bringing in shannon bream, host of fox news sunday on set to talk about it all. >> good to be with you in person. >> i love this. how much is immigration and the border factoring in, we can use arizona to start. it looked like it was going to be mark kelly and he was really sounding off on immigration there for a while. but now there are some other factors at play. >> he's talked about this as an example how he stood up to the biden administration, gone against his party and a place in arizona where they are pretty centrist. they had senator mccain for a long time, bucked his own party so senator kelly has tried to do the same thing. listen, when it matters on issues like the border i've broken with the white house. a lot of the senate race they think is because lake is doing so well in the gubernatorial

race, but even in the states out west, you talk about immigration and border, big deal, but the economy and inflation polls ahead of that. >> jacqui: and blake masters is seeming to incorporate that in his messaging. and also inflation in nevada, cortez masto is up against laxalt, she is at 48%, and laxalt at 49%. what do you make of the late shift? >> so many of these are within the margin of error. we have to wait for the dust to settle and some of these dates, the counting takes a while. georgia, a runoff, that drags us into december. i was out in las vegas a couple times this fall and the most ads were all about abortion, laxalt has an extreme position on

abortion. i think abortion was a hot topic over the summer and people are now shifting to the democrats, peak too early on that, it goes back to the economy and every time you buy groceries or gas in the car you are aware of what's happening in your household. >> and let's not forget how big of an impact on las vegas, and dependent on tourism and how people afford things are top of mind there, when the businesses are shut down and struggling for years. and utah another close race, and surprisingly close here at the end, senator mike lee, 42%. and independent opponent has 37% support there in the latest fox news polling. this was not expected to go this way. >> republicans are obviously wishing this was not so tight for them. incumbent republican senator who

cannot get the endorsement of the other sitting senator from the state, mitt romney, he is not choosing either candidates. evan mcmullen is running as an independent, ran for president in 2016, but he's courted the democrats and helped raise money, keep a democrat out of the senate race there to make it more of a head to head match-up. so we'll have senator mike leone with us on sunday, we invited evan mcmullen as well, the door is open, but senator lee will talk about it on sunday. >> jacqui: fascinating interview and race to watch. you heard it here, president biden, or excuse me, shannon has mike lee coming up on the show on fox news sunday, be sure not to miss that. >> sandra: we'll be watching. jacqui, thank you. president biden pushing ahead meanwhile with his plans to pay off student loan debt for millions of americans with election day right around the corner. larry kudlow has a lot to say about that. a few things that, is. he'll join us. the inflation buzz word.

>> sandra: making sense of your hard earned dollars. sky high inflation has us hearing terms tossed around like demand shock or gdp deflator. but the only thing that matters is the bottom line. so charts rising to 8.2% last month, we wanted to see what that actually means for your wallet. live on the ground in chicago, i should say in studio for us, hi, grady. and breaking this down, we talk in terms of high prices all the time but how is it really affecting american families? >> right, sandra, you mentioned the midterms, and no wonder inflation is such an important issue this time around. it's the first time americans have had the chance to go to the polls since two years ago. look at the prices from then and now. i want to run through a few of them, starting with a dozen eggs. something almost every american

family buys regularly. right now they cost double what they did in october of 2020. a gallon of milk, that used to cost you 3.38, now you are paying 4.18. and a pound of beef is nearly $0.70 more expensive now compared to two years ago. these might not seem like huge increases in terms of dollars and cents, but look at the percentage increases, and remember that these are the kinds of groceries we are buying every week so it all adds up over the course of 1 or 2 years. not to mention, utility bills have gone up for electricity and natural gas, 21%, and 63% respectively from two years ago. that salary finance report we have been citing in our reports today found that, you know, obviously disproportionately lower income americans are hit by inflation, but even high earners are struggling. paycheck to paycheck increasingly and pulling out of savings to make ends meet. so, obviously all of these

prices will be top of mind as voters head to the polls in just a little over two weeks. >> sandra: to that point, we talked to a guy who owns an energy company in the northeast, has so for 26 years, some customers are asking if they can pay for their heating bills with the credit cards and during sky high interest rates, tough. >> and financially you don't want to do that, but if you have to, you have to. >> sandra: a tough spot. jacqui. >> jacqui: my parents are leaning on the wood stove a lot these days. president biden pushing forward for his plan for taxpayers to pay off student debt, opening applications online and will roll it out in the next hour. americans are already bracing for the inflationnary side effects, critics calling the timing purely political with midterms just 18 days away. larry kudlow standing by with reaction next but first to peter doocy live on the north lawn for us. hey, peter.

>> good afternoon. first we want to get to this, as president was departing the white house for delaware a few minutes ago, i had a chance to ask him about an issue that is rising in importance among voters, according to every midterm poll, but that we have not heard a ton about here at the white house from the president. listen. >> mr. president, ahead of these midterms, how big of an issue is crime? >> i think it's a real issue and i think we have a great record on it. >> so the president is feeling good with regard to crime. on the economy, though, white house officials must not think the message is breaking through. they are changing it up, debuting this description of republican proposals. >> it's mega maga trickle-down. mega maga trickle-down. the kind of policies that have failed the country before and will fail it again. >> biden critics that failed

last night. legal challenge to the student loan forgiveness plan was blocked by a trump appointed supreme court justice, amy coney barrett. the plan lives on for now. people are registering to have the loans either forgiven or canceled, and white house officials are not saying what they are going to do if a future challenge succeeds. the -- >> i'm not going to get ahead of a rule, there are people out there, people are trying to take away from what the president is doing for the middle class. >> we expect to hear him talk about the student loan debt forgiveness plan at delaware state university shortly. jacqui. >> jacqui: you know, we had, what was it, semi fascist and then trumpy and then ultra maga, now we have mega maga trickle-down. i wonder who is in the back room coming up with these things. >> i'll go find out. >> jacqui: please do. thanks, peter.

sandra. >> sandra: let me tee this up while larry, you tell me when you are ready. >> i'm ready. >> sandra: we are watching wall street, here is the stock market today. and quite a rally happening right now, up 2%, 628 point gain. i always say if you look at a rally on wall street, i don't think of it as a fraction of what you are seeing. the cost of inflation is taking away any buying power that you get when you see the gains in the stock market. larry kudlow is here. >> hi, sandra, thank you. >> sandra: growing evidence that major american companies, ceos, see a recession coming, if not they already think we are in one. and they have some pretty dire warnings. i was just looking at -- everybody knows restoration hardware, the furniture company, their ceo says anybody who thinks we are not in a recession is crazy, ok. he doubled down, he said we are in troubled waters the next 12

to 18 months. down turn is just getting started. >> you know, i think on the consumer side that's absolutely the case because the soft underbelly of this economy for, i don't know, 15, almost 18 months, real wages, right, wages after inflation have fallen, and it's been a killer for household budgets, and that's where the problem is. some of that's gas prices, energy prices, food prices, grocery prices, you name it, prices. that's the soft underbelly and that's not going to change. look, you have the big shots, most of whom are democrats, not, you know, big -- david solomon, jamie dimon, elon musk, and fred smith a republican from fedex, all very pessimistic about the economy calling for recession. number one, i think the stock market has these moments i call the calvary is coming moments. i really do, even though the

fundamentals are deteriorating. profits are holding up, that's not going to last long. interest rates are way up, four and a quarter on the ten year, but i think a calvary in there someplace, will not last, the bear market is not over. there will be, though, i'm going to be i am -- i'm following the sandra smith model, gdp in the third quarter, close to 3%, move is a better trade number, it's not lasting, the first half was negative, i'm just saying, i want to put that out there. >> sandra: i sense a little optimism. >> no, i'm really not. the problem i have with the overriding story is sticky inflation, the underpinning is about 7%, and the fed is going to be raising interest rates a lot more and we have not really felt the fed tightening yet.

>> sandra: i think that's fair, and also don't underestimate the level of uncertainty out there, incredibly difficult for any company to navigate when you don't know what is on the horizon. goldman sachs ceo, you say he's a democrat. >> he was a former partner of mine at bear stearns. >> sandra: his own words on recession, listen. >> i think you have to expect that there's more volatility on the horizon. now that doesn't mean for sure that we have a really difficult economic scenario, but in the distribution of outcomes, a good chance we could have a recession. >> sandra: ok, that's a pretty important voice in all this, and then jeff bezos to your point, he tweeted in response to that, yep, the probabilities in this economy tell you to baton down the hatches. >> and elon musk, a democrat turned republican as many of us have in the last 50 years, elon is saying recession into 2024,

and he's at the heart of this whole electric vehicle car sales business, that's a very difficult thing. i want to raise one other point. the credibility factor, the confidence factor joe biden is so bad, so he brags the budget deficit is $1.4 trillion and how low that is. the committee of the federal budget, maya is good at this, it's all expiration of covid spending. that's -- there were no budget cuts whatsoever, and in two years biden and the congress have produced 5 trillion in additional debt over the next ten years. 5 trillion in two years. sandra. >> you are fact checking the speech today. >> i've tried. i've been in and out of the game a long time, it's not easy to do, $5 trillion in two years. like biden yesterday saying oh, the oil companies are not producing enough, i've never gotten in the way of the oil companies, they are asleep and
