at this .100%. it was a game changer. it changed my life. >> changed her life and some say could change the way many people heal their minds. >> bill: really interesting stuff. douglas kennedy, thanks. what's our list? phobias, flying or -- it's not flying for me. i have a fear of being fired. it is a weird thing. i don't know. maybe i should just do my job and that will help prevent that. let's get to chicago. >> a car pulls up and individual shot just at a family gathering. approximately five people were shot and being treated at local hospitals. we're doing a canvas of the area now trying to recover as much video as we can from cameras in the area.

>> dana: describing a shooting over the father's day weekend. it was hardly and isolated incident with the city facing a wave of gunfire that killed nine people. welcome to a new hour of "america's newsroom," i'm dana perino. good morning. >> bill: good weekend? >> dana: yes, you? mine was quiet. >> bill: i'm bill hemmer. good morning. investigators looking for suspects and motive after shots were fired into a crowd during a juneteenth celebration and looking into a horrific shooting at a father's day barbecue in a park. mike tobin on a monday morning has the latest from chicago yet again. mike, hello. >> hello, bill. the weather was perfect this holiday weekend that brought people out celebrating juneteenth and father's day. time and again in chicago when people gather, guns come out. in rows lawn on the south side

people were bash cueing in the park for father's day. a sedan opened fire and five people were killed. the shootings were not limited to the violent areas in the south and west sides. there was a fatal shooting in the river north area and in lincoln park a group was drinking 4:30 a.m. near the zoo and got into a night and gunfire broke out and five people shot. >> it is unfortunate that this occurred. it is a fine day. people just enjoying their family activity. but violence prevails and these five individuals were shot. >> just outside of the city in the town of willow brook young people were out celebrating juneteenth and a fight broke out. that shooting got the attention of brandon johnson who weighed in with condolences and the line we must remain committed to

addressing gun violence in our city and neighboring communities. chicago police are not out with the official totals now. looks like the numbers are 55 shot over the weekend, nine people killed. >> bill: oh. that's unbelievable. okay, mike, thanks. mike tobin in chicago yet again on this monday. thanks. >> dana: today is the start of national women in sports week and it comes while more and more female athletes are bravely speaking out about competing against biological men and that includes our next guest paula scan lynn, former teammate of lia thomas at the university of pennsylvania. it is wonderful to have you here with us. you swam with lia thomas, you didn't speak up at the time. i don't know what has changed. you can tell us that you decided to speak out now. you want it not to continue. >> in the last year i thought this wouldn't continue to happen. i thought it was an exception sport. i continue to see it happen and

see other girls and a girl severely injured and hurt by a transgender individual in her sports in a high school level. so those young girls being affected by this i couldn't stay quiet. i had to speak up for them. >> dana: the injury that peyton suffered, did it prevent her from playing in college. the injuries were so severe. >> she isn't doing any sports in college now. i met with her last week. it is so disheartening in seeing all those young girls that could be affected that way. we can't let that happen. >> bill: a couple interesting things you said. thank you for being here today. back stroke is your stroke. 50, 100. >> 100 to 200. colleges and yards and meters. a little bit different. >> bill: did you swim directly against lia thomas? >> i swam different events. i never actually raced him. >> here is what i picked up in

some of the interviews. members of the team or school came to people like you and said you will regret talking to the media. a year in advance they told the team it is non-negotiable. lia thomas will be on the team and told you that you were the problem. and some of the swimmers hid in the bathroom stalls so they could avoid changing in front of lia thomas. is all of that true? >> yes. they never really had a conversation with us about the non-negotiable until after the season began. that meeting pretty much saying don't talk to the media, leah swimming is not negotiable all happened in a meeting in december of 2021. they didn't address any of it until it became a problem with the media and until there was a huge story about it. >> bill: so they come to you and tell you all this and you guys are tight, right? you are a team. you spend hours every day of the week together. what was the talk about on the team? >> before it was just one-on-one

conversations you would have with people and you would say hey, what do you think about this? maybe this isn't fair. but once they have a talk with us we stopped talking to each other about it. that conversation was so scary and frightening we were afraid to even speak amongst ourselves. at that point you couldn't really raise any concerns. you didn't know who you could trust. >> dana: we reached out to the university of pennsylvania. they didn't respond at this time. back going back to when lia thomas was first competing there was a narrative that the team didn't care because they just wanted to win and they wanted to get all the championships. i thought it was odd at the time. wow, is that true? now you are here to help explain that. >> yeah. so thomas helped us win. whether are oh not people were okay with that we weren't. no one wants the win to feel tainted especially since there is controversy whether in the

future this could be override en or overruled. how will that change the team's records and scores. no one really wanted that. i think nobody is in sports to win unfairly. i don't think that narrative is correct. >> dana: since you've spoken out, what has the reaction been? part of the fear of speaking out is you'll be either criticized by teammates or school but also, of course, we know what happens online and so now you are taking this brave step. what has the reaction been? >> had a few teammates tell me they support me. maybe they'll eventually speak out themselves. mostly positive. there are the haters online that you'll get messages and people are calling me. i'm trying to ban transgender individuals from sports. that's not the case. i never suggested that. they can compete in a category they are biologically supposed to be in. that's been the reaction. >> bill: you are a catholic. and you sought spiritual guidance through all of this. >> yes. >> bill: it came up at the white

house on the 14th of june a week ago. i want to get your reaction to this exchange. >> what do you say to parents out there who have daughters in high school who are worried that their you daughter my have to compete against a male and what about their daughter's safety? >> that's the dangerous thing to say. that essentially transgender kids we're talking about are dangerous. >> bill: you have lived this. i don't know how you feel about that reaction there and also you be will in washington for what? >> so this week is the anniversary of passing title ix. i will be around capitol hill making the statement clear we need to properly defend title ix and what it stands for. i understand there are people trying to rewrite that and put in individuals that identify as women to fall under title ix and i will be there to stand against it. >> the white house spokesperson said it is dangerous. >> i think what's dangerous is having biological men in women's

spaces. if you haven't heard about loudon county, virginia and the bathrooms in the high school i think that's dangerous. even if it's a small number it doesn't make it any less dangerous for women. >> dana: it is not being contained just to swimming. it is now across the board cycle, lacrosse, running, swimming, power lifting, and probably more to come. >> bill: paula, you are brave speaking out. >> thank you for having me. >> bill: thank you for being here. good luck in washington. i want to get to washington house judiciary chair jim jordan demanding answers have a so-called i.r.s. house call turns up some red flags. according to jordan's letter to the i.r.s. the agent report edly badgered the taxpayer. what is this all about? gillian turner running it down for us in d.c. >> it is quite a story, bill.

republican jim jordan has the i.r.s. in his crosshairs again. he says his committee has really serious concerns about alleged abuses that are infringing upon american's civil liberties. in new letter he says an i.r.s. agent provided a false name to an ohio taxpayer to gain entry into their home to confront her about delinquent tax filings. the i.r.s. agent identified himself as bill haus, alias. when he arrived at the marion, ohio home of a taxpayer whose identity is being protected. when the taxpayer objected to the agent's tactics the i.r.s. agent insisted he can go into anyone's house at any time. following this visit the taxpayer alerted marian pd. a police officer contacted agent

haus verified he is an i.r.s. agent. haus filed a complaint against that officer. jordan says this is a clear case of i.r.s. overreach and is also similar to a december i.r.s. house visit to the home of reporter matt taibbi. >> everyone i've talked to about that fact pattern says no way it was chance. this was deliberate. targeting the guy who elon musk picked to do the twitter file and give us all kinds of valuable information. >> we don't have a response yet from the i.r.s., bill. we can tell you that the i.r.s. last long had a law enforcement branch. it is legally allowed to carry out investigations into suspected crimes, things like money laundering and fraud and their authority does include interviewing suspects sometimes at their homes. whether that covers their tracks here remains to be seen. >> bill: more to come on this clearly, right? thank you for that.

gillian turner in washington, d.c. thanks. >> oh my god. >> dana: life or death hanging in the balance for a florida deputy as the floodwaters rush him. more of this video ahead. >> more and more voters looking at the possibility of a biden/trump rematch on the ballot and saying none of the above. now a third option is gaining steam. we'll check in on that coming up. >> dana: our nation's cancer drug shortage going from bad to worse, the drastic action the feds are taking next. >> there are so many patients that need this drug and we're just in shock that in the united states there is a complete national shortage of this and patients can't receive the treatment they direly need. ? here's a great way to do it. the newday 100 va cash out loan. at newday, our veterans on average pay off

>> dana: bill, while you were watching golf a north carolina fishing tournament ended in controversy. one team hauling in a gigantic marlin weighing 600 pounds. big enough to win. there was a problem. judges found a bite mark on the fish what appeared to be from a shark and disqualified the catch deeming it mutilated. it cost the team nearly $3 million. >> bill: what's the rule, kid? >> dana: it does have to be in pristine condition. those are the rules. you have to go with that. >> bill: because of the shark bites the fish it is easier to haul in. >> dana: it has to be pristine condition. >> bill: but the guy was arguing -- >> dana: guy didn't have it right. i think i put that idea in guy's mind. >> bill: we have to bring him

back. >> dana: a debate about guy and dagen. >> it started out had a couple months of treatment and then realized partway through that there was a shortage of the drug at the hospital. not just our hospital, but then we found out that it was throughout the country getting a certain amount of chemo drug but not the drug that i really need. >> bill: we spoke to a cancer patient last week by the shortage of chemo drugs. more than 90% of large cancer centers in the u.s. reporting shortages. the fda has begun allowing imports from china and other countries prompting calls for the u.s. to shore up the supply chain. lydia hu, fox business, at a cancer institute in new hyde park of new york in long island. what did you find out, lydia? >> the fda is tracking shortages

on more than a dozen cancer-treating drugs. today we're focusing on two. they are considered the backbone in oncology medicine. a doctor here told us that not having enough of these two drugs could be the difference between life and death. listen. >> it's 2023. i never thought in my career i would be dealing with the extent and severity of these cancer drug shortages we're having today. >> now a group of 66 bipartisan lawmakers have written a letter to the fda and the department of health and human services. they want more information about how the agencies manage drug shortages. they note there is no end-to-end visibility and they also describe how the shortages are making doctors make decisions forcing doctors to, quote, choose between inferior or potentially ineffective

therapies to protect their patients. health providers may also be forced to make treatment decisions to the most curable patients other than to all who need them. shortages of critical drugs lead to worse health outcomes. bill, a problem is that many of the drugs or ingredients come from overseas. our country has little control over supply. u.s. farm ca, a nonprofit estimate india accounts for most of the fda-approved drug ingredient makers coming in at 48%. compare that to 22% from europe, 13% from china. the current shortage on the drugs we're experiencing is caused by the shutdown of a factory in india. the fda's short term solution, import more of the drug from china. it illustrates our reliance on foreign supply chains. back to you. >> bill: we have to figure this

out. thanks for being on the story in long island, new york. >> dana: politics for you now facing the possibility of another trump-biden match-up in 2024. many voters are looking for a third option. gallup poll found last month that 41% of american voters consider themselves independent. not republican or democrat. the group no labels is looking to capitalize on american's dissatisfaction and wants to present a unity ticket. one democrat and one republican. they are facing push back from the right and left. the left for sure. nancy, there is confusion about what no labels is and what you want to do. why don't i give you the floor for a moment to explain that. >> okay. first of all, thank you so much, dana. we've been around for 13 years. we formed and created and built problem solvers caucus in the congress, the only bipartisan go-to group. we matched it with senate

allies. we have been around for a long time. what we're doing now is to provide a choice for americans if we come to 2024 and this country doesn't want the choices that are served up, we're getting the ballot in all 50 states to offer americans a choice if they want it. we call it an insurance policy. you don't have to do it. if the american public doesn't want it. one ticket one time. >> dana: what is your measurement if the american people want it? >> we are going to see. we'll wait until april because that will be after march 6th super tuesday and after florida. it will be very clear who the choices are. and we'll know just like we see the polls now. right now nobody wants the match-up of trump/biden. it is very clear. ist is all over the place. one of the most recent polls was 70%. >> dana: the choice for president including someone else. trump 41, biden 34, someone else

19. then continuing on marquette poll, would you like to see biden and trump run for president? biden is a no at 76%. trump a no at 64%. you can understand, i would imagine, why the left and right would both be wary of a third party. they aren't sure how it would go. there are many people, especially on the left, who have come after you because they believe a third party option would pull voters away from biden but that trump would still win. also is an accusation out there, maybe it's true, you tell me. that no labels is saying that if ron desantis is not the nominee, then you will decide to go ahead and do this. what's the clarity on that? >> let me set the record straight. our focus is if there is an opening where this ticket, a unity ticket. this is one republican, one democrat walking into the white house in 2025 january focused on

the first 100 days for results for american people. if it's clear that they don't want the choices and this is a winning ticket and we can win and not spoil, we are going to do it. if it looks for any reason like this will spoil it, we step down. we aren't cowboys, people who want to give the americans the choice. they will decide. >> dana: one of the accusations coming from the left is that your husband, mark penn, a long-time pollster and somebody who comes on our air and worked for bill clinton but does a lot of polling. the accusation is that you are doing his bidding. would you like to respond to that? >> oh my goodness, dana, listen, i have been in politics well over 30 years, right? my last assignment was senator evan bye for 15 years. he have resigned and got worn down by the hyper partisanship and dysfunction. i created this organization all by myself, right? it was my idea, i've worked at

it as a full-time volunteer for 12 years. it is my life's work. this is what i do. i know it's hard for people in this day and age to think that actually a woman can stand up and have their own idea and have a forceful personality and go forth. i will keep going on because i've always been committed to the common sense majority ever since i came to washington 35 years ago. >> dana: one last question. is joe manchin the senator from west virginia your choice for this possible third party unity ticket. >> listen, joe manchin we have known he was at our lunch in 2010. the honorary co-chair with senator susan collins and a terrific legislator and, you know, he stands for his politics. this is too premature, we have not made any decisions. >> dana: nancy, thank you for coming on the show. the first interview you've ever done. thank you for being on.

>> bill: she did well. so south carolina republicans voting unanimously to have their presidential primary on the 24th of february if approved by the rnc the change would move south carolina behind nevada. the south carolina gop say it will give candidates more time toll be in the state. we have breaking news on an intriguing story. mini submarines that take tourists to tour the titanic 370 miles off the coast of newfoundland. there is a report that one them is missing. it is not clear how many people, if anyone, was on board when it went missing. the coast guard is on this and so, too, is the coast guard out of boston. this wreckage for the titanic went down 111 years ago

april 15th, 1912. more than 2200 passengers and crew on board, 1500 died. it has been a story of captyvation for millions of people around the world ever since it set sail out of southampton but built in northern ireland in belfast. at the time it was considered unsinkable. everybody knows the legend of the titanic since then. we'll see whether or not this story stands up but we want to figure out whether or not there is anybody on board the missing sub. we'll be on it and let you know what happens next. earlier from beijing today. >> clear coming in that the relationship was at a point of instability and both sides recognize the need to work to stabilize it. >> dana: antony blinken on his recent trip to china. is a stable relationship there even possible?

what secretary blinken said the trip was about was improving messaging to prevent misunderstandings. the state department said it was essential so this did not veer into conflict. the theme on the chinese side was it was the u.s. who have been to blame for tensions. with president xi saying i hope the u.s. will make more positive contributions to our relationship and foreign minister saying the u.s. needed to reflect deeply and not hype up the china threat theory. secretary blinken insisted the u.s. was not containing china. >> one of the important things for me to do on this trip was to disabuse our chinese hosts of the notion that we are seeking to economically contain them. we're not. and as i've said, we are not about decoupling. we're about derisking and

diversifying. >> china harassing u.s. warships and planes and the spy balloon that canceled the visit in february. growing threats to taiwan where the chinese foreign minister said there is no room for compromise there. no stepping back on taiwan. the one thing that blinken was hoping for was the reopening of u.s. to china military to military channels. china said they weren't ready for that and discussed other issues, chinese military support for russia with secretary blink en saying the u.s. now believes that the chinese government is not supplying russia but he did then say that chinese companies clearly were. it is very interesting to see what the relationship is between those companies and the chinese government. lots of movements and words said. no real decisions made. i think that what we will see, however, is more dialogue going forward and second year yellen heading out there and the chinese foreign minister heading

for the u.s. no movements toward positivity but dialogue is moving in the right direction. >> dana: benjamin hall in london. >> bill: you have to start somewhere. jack keane, general, good morning to you. excellent report by ben. what do you think? how did it go? did we get anything from it? >> i don't think much to be frank about it. i'm not opposed to blinken having the visit. my sources tell me the chinese really wanted to talk to secretary of treasury and commerce. what they want is some concessions from the united states over export controls like we did with the semi conductor and decoupling china from certain capacities inside of china that are aiding their national security. that's really what they are after. they conceded to visit with blinken. the chinese use these engagements to get concessions from the united states. i think that's the concern that we have and we look at this

administration. do they really understand the limits of a renewed engagement policy will have with beijing? the fact is, we talk all the time with beijing. we've done it in the last administration and this one. but it has not slowed down, bill and dana, their aggressive advance in the pacific region, economic bullying and intimidation around the world and their desire to become the world's global power. they're about this aggressiveness every single day. we have to internalize that while we can have some of these discussions to make sure that we keep the lines of communication open, i think everybody would want that, particularly if there is a miscalculation. there is so much limits to those words it is the actions that make the difference and we've seen it in the past. that's really the underlying issue. actions speak louder than words

here. >> bill: quickly, general. one of the main headlines china would not agree to having these open channels of communication with regard to the military. and you think about taiwan, the ongoing issue with russia. beijing said we're protesting you over the sanctions you leveled against us. can we break through this and get that established if our administration thinks it's so important? >> i do also think it's important, something we have with the soviet union for years but the issue, china proverbs they own all the major trading souths. the south china si and they are wealth exercising in those places and conducting normal surveillance operations at sea and air. that is very troublesome to them. that confrontation is continuing. so the military is on the front

line in this relationship and contesting china's aggression. i believe that's why china is not opening the door for further communication. >> bill: more to come on this. it is a relationship that runs deep as we all know. jack keane, thank you for coming on, general. nice to see you. dana. >> have a great week. >> dana: john durham set to testify this week on capitol hill. will that bolster arguments of bias at the f.b.i.? and today marks the second year the u.s. has celebrated juneteenth as an official federal holiday. what it means for the larger conversation on race in america. see you in a moment, richard. so you only pay for what you need. that's my boy. ♪ stay off the freeways! only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ buying a car from vroom is so easy, all you need is a phone and a finger. just go to vroom.com, scroll through thousands of cars.

>> bill: so we mentioned this 15 minutes ago. a frantic matter now unfolding in the atlantic ocean. apparently a submarine used to

take tourists to view the titanic has gone missing. happened off the coast of newfoundland in canada. that is what we believe it looks like. alexis mcadams starting to dig into the story. what do we think we know now? >> it is breaking just about 20 minutes ago or so. just in the past few minutes we just talked to the boston coast guard who says they are heading up the u.s. team for this ongoing search. at this time it is not clear how many people if any were on board the time the sub went missing. there is an ongoing and very active search for the titanic tourist submarine. the small sub maresibles take tourists and experts to check out the wreck of the titanic and pay big bucks to do it. at this time not sure in anyone was on this, if there were any tourists on it. ocean gate leads the tours of

those. experts say it takes you to see the wreckage of the titanic. we haven't been able to reach ocean gate at this time. it takes hours to get down to the site. eight hours for this trip. the company's website advertises seven night voyages priced at $250,000 to see the site of that famous shipwreck at the bottom of the atlantic off the coast of newfoundland, canada. the coast guard haven't been able to give us details. as soon as they get more details i'll bring it back to you. >> looking at the twitter page for ocean gate expeditions, they use star link to provide the communications required. >> they had some information about star link on there. we'll reach out to that as well and see what we can get.

a scary situation for these people and this company. >> bill: the coast guard out of boston is responding. stay on it and we'll keep oar eyes and ears open and hope for the best. >> dana: former special counsel john durham testifying on capitol hill this week. he led the four year investigation into the trump russia probe. what to expect from these hearings. i bet they could be spicy. >> it is going to be the talk of the week here, dana. good morning to you. durham's visit comes as house republicans are digging into, of course, the russia hoax but also what they call the weaponization of the d.o.j. as congress considers whether it will reauthorize the surveillance powers handed to the f.b.i. all eyes will be on durham this wednesday as he testifies under oath in front of the house judiciary committee about his 300-page report. as we all know now it concludes

the f.b.i. had absolutely no actual evidence of collusion between the trump 2016 campaign and russia when it launched that multi-year long investigation. and yet nobody has been jailed for this. no one has received jail time. house republican leaders allege a systemic bias and abuse of power within the d.o.j. they want to see major reforms. >> there are problems in the entire process with the fisa courts. in which people are not held accountable. people believe this needs to be changed. >> the democrat who promoted the russia/trump collusion hoax is trying to dodge a second attempt to censure him and accusing trump and republicans for political prosecutions. >> dana: we'll keep an eye on that this week.

>> it took 18 months for people no texas to find out they had been freed. we remember that there are people throughout america's history who are abolitionists and believe in the american dream and want all of us to remember we're created in the image and likeness of god and equal and celebrating the freedom. >> bill: the significance of juneteenth today commemorating the end of slavery. richard fowler is here to reflect on this. nice to see you, richard. good morning to you. a few parades here and there in different american cities. tell us what today means to you, richard. >> look, i think it's all vote yeah king said, a very important day for all americans. we look back at bittersweet parts of american history and understand not only do we have to look back but understand the progress we've made and continue

to make. not to date my parents. both of my parents were rn born pre-the passage of the voting rights and civil rights act in the country. it not that long ago that america was a separate but equal nation. the fact we have a vice president african-american. african-american president shows america is moving in the right direction. when you look at statistics, healthcare, housing, whether it's in income, we know we have more work to do as a country. while we commemorate this day we should look back what have we done right and wrong and what can we do better moving forward? >> dana: interesting to think back on the history. everything is so instant in terms of communication. we were doing a story about a possible submersible missing off the coast of the atlantic and in this instance when slaves are freed and it takes 18 months to get that information to texas, that is really remarkable to think about again what they --

what those 18 months might have looked like could have been different but imagine the joy upon hearing the news. >> oh, yeah, i think the joy for them must have been endless. worth pointing out also. i love studying american history. there were two union states, the state of kentucky and the state of delaware that didn't have an emancipation or free their slaves until december of 1865 which tells you to your point. communication was so slow back then beyond it being slow, it was the intention by many of these slave holders in the states to say we'll keep these folks in bondage as long as possible so we can get the free labor from them. so the fact that we're having a moment to celebrate and talk about these things is really critical and really important. as i think a lot of white folks say, you have to know where you came from to know where you are going. >> bill: your first answer about how far we've come. just last week we had tim scott

and barack obama going back and forth on it was clear that the former president did not believe that tim scott was carrying the same values he was when it comes to race in america. how did that strike you? >> i think you have to zoom out and look at both of these. i got a chance to look in the president's interview. what he was talking about was the idea american in this idea of being a perfect union have always struggled in the perfect part. in the podcast he talks about while they signed the declaration of independence and declared america's freedom, at the same time many of the signers of that bill were folks who enslaved human beings, right? there are amendments to the constitution it says that you can trade slaves and says people of color weren't treated as a person. with that being said you look at the story of tim scott, the first african-american in american history to serve both in the united states house of representatives and in the u.s.

senate. while that's remarkable there should be 10 or 15 or 20 or 30 tim scotts, maybe a black woman should have that honor, too. while we think about what we've done, you also think about what we go forward with. as we work on being a perfect union, perfection takes time and takes us looking backward. >> dana: thank you for being with us today. >> bill: all right. reality star kourtney kardashian. her husband travis barker's concert. that was in l.a. over the weekend. you weren't there but that's today's hemmer celebrity news. you were aware, right? the sign serving as a nod to blink 182 all the small things music video. ♪ >> we're back. >> bill: that's the reveal. the sign telling him on stage

they're pregnant. cool. three previous children. she is 44. congratulations. 44. there you go. all right. i'm keeping up with the kard kardashians. >> dana: i don't like public proposals and that. >> bill: you keep up with golf and i'm keeping up with the kardashians. >> dana: check this out. >> look at this. how sick. oh. [laughter] >> bill: did you see big bro? >> dana: a mid game mini meltdown from a red sox fan after his brother throws back the foul ball he was given. we have the family here to tell the story. they were at the game. charlie is the one who threw the foul ball back and they're back with mom, jamie. great to have you. all right, how is it going

today, charlie? >> good. >> dana: yeah. >> bill: tired? >> a little embarrassed and nervous. >> dana: jack, tell us what happened there. >> well, i have think charlie was just trying to throw the ball because he was either trying to be funny or he just whenever you get a ball he made a nice throw into left field. >> bill: that's sweet. he made a nice throw, right, jack? >> oh yeah. >> dana: dad pat, you are a hero dad of the day for making sure both boys were comforted after ward. tell us about the moment for you. >> i didn't feel like i was -- i was just trying to keep order. but the whole thing started because the gentlemen in front of us was very nice and turned a gave a ball he had gotten and

handed it to charlie and he was the one that was started off being so nice to us to our little boys. you never forget things like that and when he handed it. we play a lot of catch. charlie gets a baseball and time to give it a whirl. that's what happened. i think jack knew that it was more of a collector's item and what started that reaction. >> he gave it a good chuck. i give you credit for that. mom, jamie, were you watching at this time? this was all televised. >> no. i was getting some refreshments for the family so that was, you know, also parenting is a humbling journey. i heard some commotion up in the stands and i said oh geez, i'm missing something. little did i know i was missing from action with my family. >> dana: jack, what's next for the red sox? >> i think they can catch the

yankees. >> bill: bill was just saying that in the commercial break. >> bill: pat, the team did you right bought you baseballs and jerseys. must have made you feel good in the end. >> everybody around us was so kind when it happened. i guess as i understand the players saw some of it and janson so graciously got a game jersey and signed it and sent it up. one of the red sox personnel brought it down. it was really kind. you start to think people -- i give credit to them. >> dana: it all worked out. >> bill: had a good ending. happy father's day. you have a beautiful family. >> thank you so much. big fans of you guys, thank you so much. >> dana: charlie, come back when you are ready to talk to me, bye. >> thank you. >> bill: want to make a note

here what is happening off the coast of newfoundland, 370 miles off the coast one of the mini subs carrying tourists to see the titanic in the atlantic, the labrador sea. we cannot confirm there were people on board. we can just say they can't find the sub right now. that's the story for the moment. >> dana: harris faulkner will have more. "the faulkner focus" is up next. >> harris: we begin with the fox news alert. america's secretary of state in china, two things to note, secretary antony blinken's trip was moved up by eight months. and no doubt for a host of reasons. it is, in fact, urgent that the u.s. and china talk. not the least of which is the fact that china's president and his military are not returning white house and pentagon phone calls. blinken sat down with xi for a half hour this morning not previously scheduled but it
