>> we begin this hour with a fox news alert. the uprising inside russia coming to a impeachment halt a . >> belarus brokered the deal with the kremlin that will allow the leader of the revolt to go into exile that would end for now that internal conflict. rachel: that's the same country where putin moved some of his nuclear arsenal. alexandria huff is live in washington, d.c. with the latest. >> reporter: the deal was arranged by belarus and a long time putin ally. it did halt what could have developed into a civil war. the chief of the bagner group was spared of charges.

they made it within 125 mistlesf moscow. the kremlin announced the war lord could leave for belarus allegedly without penalty for mercenaries taking hold of a critical russian city. >> they were going to dismantle pnc wagner which came out on the 23rd of june to the march of justice. in day we walked nearly 200 kilometers away from moscow. in this time we did not spill a single drop of blood. now the moment has come when blood may spill. that's why understanding the responsibility for spilling russian blood, we are turning back our convoys and going back to field camps according to our plan. >> reporter: according to a spokesperson for secretary of state antony blinken, support by the united states for ukraine will not change. the united states will stay in close coordination with ukraine as this situation develops. and russian officials offer this, we warn the western

countries against any hint of the possible use of the domestic russian situation to achieve their russia phobic goals, all goals and objectives of the special military operation will be fulfilled. the bitterness had been building for months as he felt the wagner group they weren't not supported by the military, they were fighting on behalf of ukraine, quite brutally i might add. where does putin go from here? we spoke with the former station chief and fox news contributor about that. >> this is a dangerous time for him. i can tell from my experience in the intelligence committee and lessons we learned from the '91 failed coup against g gorbachev, we need cons contingency plans. if someone were to gain access to the nuclear weapons, there's a lot at stake.

when there's instability at russia the world risks paying a price for it. >> reporter: according to reports by the washington post and new york times, senior u.s. officials were actually briefed on wednesday that the wagner group was preparing to take action but they did keep silent on this predicting that putin would accuse the u.s. of o traiting a coup. will, rachel, pete. rachel: thank you, alexandria. interesting, dan hoffman talking about the possibility of loose nukes, the danger of instability in russia because of the nukes. ukrainian president vladimir zelenskyy, he said the episode proved in russia there's so much chaos, no lie can hide it. but i guess my question is could that chaos that i think zelenskyy is hoping to capitalize on, could that be bad for the world, america in particular. >> we don't know. will raised the point, it's the

devil you know, versus the new devil. doesn't mean it's necessarily a better situation where the head of the wagner group to have been successful. >> it clearly wasn't. in the short term, it seems that putin has solidified his shower inside russia, exiling a potential opponent. it's worth noting this does -- it has a rattling effect on how much control putin has over his country and the war considering this guy on your screen right there was his most effective warrior on the batter -- battle field. he's speaking out about how poorly the war has run. if you're indicting the minister of defense, that's an indictment of vladimir putin as well. he can't tolerate that. so exile to belarus is the current status although michael waltz who we'll play a sound bite in a second says that for now pergosin is in ukraine. when does he go to belarus. rachel: he described him as

robinhood figure, that he's actually more liked than putin. >> he's speaking up for his guys. the rank and file of the wagner group have gone through a meat grinder, tens of thousands killed in the ukraine war and they don't feel like they've gotten the food, the ammunition they need. most russian generals -- russian generals are famous for saying who cares about the troops, keep going into the hail of bullets. if he's speaking out, saying i care about my men, there could be a grass roots level of support for a guy like that amongst the troops which is problematic for putin. rachel: and with the moms of the troops. >> it looks like the wagner group has been decapitated. that leaves tens of thousands of mercenary troops with questions about whether or not they fall into the russian military. michael waltz was on the program earlier. he said that's a hard proposition to imagine. watch. >> it's unclear how broad this message and this discontent

across the russian military has spread. i don't expect to see these soldiers join just meld into the russian military. they were mercenaries. they were paid better. they were trained better. they were equipped better than the average russian soldier. but it's a real loss of capability for putin. not only on the front lines there in ukraine, but around the world and so i'll be watching whether putin launches of an anti-a corruption campaign or starts to clean house in his ministry of defense and make them the scapegoat for their failures so far. >> these details matter and why the story is not yet over, if that is all accurate, if what we heard is accurate, then the russian war effort in ukraine is compromised because the wagner group shouldered such a heavy burden in ukraine. what more, the russian influence around the globe is compromised because the wagner group shouldered a burden in africa and other places around the

world and if what we heard is true, putin's days of concern have only just begun because if you have tens of thousands of soldiers who feel loyal to a man who is no longer there, and they become the fertile soil through which another challenge to vladimir putin's power can come and that leads to the point you made several times this morning about chaos. if there is any attempt to shift the government in russia, the question always lurking in the background is who controls the news. rachel: who controls the news. remember, it was lindsey graham, senator lindsey graham who said that should be the goal of the united states to get rid of putin. we had a long history in this country of getting involved in other countries and deposing people only to find out we haven't -- our leaders haven't thought of who comes next so very troubling time. a lot of money being spent on this war. not so many updates from our leaders about where the money is going and how the war is going. >> something to pay attention to, just on the xs and os of

the execution of the war. is ukraine able to actually take advantage of this. if your enemy loses tens of thousand offs their best troops and you can't take advantage of that and take background it might tell you how static the war really is. it's going to go on forever on a status quo absent some other resolution. rachel: such a great point, especially when you consider at this moment ukraine is the third most well funded military in the world. it's u.s., china, and then ukraine. so if they can't win with this opportunity, and with that amount of funding from your tax dollars, that should say something about the war. >> before this 18 hour coup, the major news story was the revelations when it cam to hunter biden -- came to hunter biden, the text message that seemed to point directly to evidence that joe biden is involved in hunter biden's affairs overseas be that in china or be that in ukraine. since that news story, by the way, hunter has almost directly by joe biden's side.

there was a state dinner for the prime minister of india, thursday or friday night. >> friday. it was thursday night. >> where hunter biden and merrick garland were present. now you can see that hunter biden and joe biden have decamped for camp david. rachel: with one of the approved grandchildren i should mention. not all grandchildren in the biden family are recognized. >> it might be a hiding in plain sight scenario. i mean, what are you going to do, stay apart to make it look like you're guilty. instead you say there's nothing to see here, here's my son, i love him, he's the smartest man i've ever known and we've never talked about business dealings until now. the mainstream press is starting to wake up to the reality of how obvious the the corrupt connects are. donald trump was at an event in washington dk c and talked about how there's a clear double standard here. >> joe biden has weaponized law enforcement to interfere in our

elections, the greatest abuse of power that i've seen and that most off have seen in the history of our country. it's a hoax. every time the radical left democrats, marxists communists and fascists indict me i consider it a great badge of courage. i'm being indicted for you and i believe the you is more than 200 million people that love our country. they're out there and they love our country. >> meanwhile, newt gingrich picking up on what donald trump said, wrote in an op-ed for fox news that hunter biden just did his part to help decide the 2024 election. he's talking about a sweetheart deal made between hunter biden and the doj and prosecutors that will likely become major assets for his father, most dangerous challenger. consider that same department of justice that treating joe biden's son was kid gloves is treating his biggest political rival potentially 4 listen years

in jail. this stark contrast will prove to be astonishing destructive politically. so newt is saying even this slap on the wrist will be enough to point out to illustrate to show voters the difference in the justice system. i told you this off camera. i got a text a moment ago from a friend who is a criminal defense attorney in new york and it's been mentioned that hunter got pretrial diversion. he said diversion is basically stay out of trouble and the case will be dismissed. it's like pretrial probation. satisfy these requirements, keep your nose clean and this goes away. >> share how rare your buddy said that is. >> in all my years i've only gotten this done once in the federal system and that's because they arrested the wrong person and were looking to find the easiest way out. [laughter] >> so that's what hunter got was the absolute exception to the rule which is only given to

people who they make a mistake on, in this case it wasn't a mistake. rachel: speaking of what newt gingrich said, all of us have kids. one of the first things when your kids start talking and conversing with each other, one of the first phrases you hear from them, it's not fair. we're sort of wired for justice for fairness and it's just impossible to see what's happening, what newt gingrich just said, what we've been saying all weekend. you have a former president who had boxes in his home with classified documents that he technically is allowed to declassify who is now facing 400 years in jail, they want to put him in jail for life. this is the kind of stuff they do in third world countries. then you have conversations coming out of hunter biden saying my dad is right next to me, you better give me the money and then a few days later, $5 million shows up in his bank account and gets a slap on the wrist. i mean, people get it and i think newt gingrich is absolutely right.

the lack of faith in our justice system, this two tiered system is going to be a top issue. we don't have that, we couldn'tt have a country. >> newt raises a great point. donald trump has proven himself to be if not the best one of the most astute political keepers of the pulse of the people we've ever seen and if he stays on that tune, i think it's really -- i'm being indicted for you, i believe the you is the 200 million people out there, when it's not they're coming after me, i, and it's you, us, that's a winner inside the primary. in fact, we're going to have larry elder on the program here next segment, probably part of what i'll ask him is how do you overcome that barrier of so many people who feel like he's standing in the way for them. >> meanwhile, new jersey, three school districts have been sued by the state. the school districts voted for their school boards to require parental notification for schools if a student comes out as transgender or changes their

preferred pronouns. but the state of new jersey has said to those three districts that is a violation. the attorney general said the policies passed by the boards of education if allowed to go into effect will harm our kids and pose severe risk to safety. to be clear, what the state of new jersey is saying is if you tell parents you're harming the kids. >> correct. because the kids are the states in their mind, not the parents. by the way, i think we have a map of these three school districts, middletown, marlboro and minalepin, in central new jersey. i know hard core new jersey folks say there isn't a central but there is and a more conservative area. i knows a lot of people in the school districts there. i lived in the area. you want to cling to the belief that even in a blue state, okay, our school district can elect school board members who can change the policy, right. we're going to notify parents

and that's the right instinct and that's the right thing to do but when the attorney general comes out and says no, no, you can't control your own school district, what parents are notified of, it's a stark reminder of how much power exists in the blue states to cut parents out. rachel: your children, pete, are just on loan to you from the state. you get them for a little bit but we control them for those eight hours, we get to tell them what they can believe, you can try and deprogram them but good luck with that because we've had them all day long. >> that's their mindset. new jersey passed in their last legislative session, rachel, a mandatory gender curriculum all the way down to first grade. rachel: absolutely. this is why schools, private schools in new jersey like the one my kids go to in boonetown new jersey are bursting at the seams because parents are upsed about this. nikki stover is one of those moms. this is what she has to say.

>> we want transparency from the school. our children are safer when we know more about what's happening they schools. why would the ag and murphy think it's appropriate to hide any sort of information from parents? he thinks we're monsters. he thinks we would torture our kids. we would never torture our kids. we're trying to get the masks off for two years because he tortures our kids and now that he is losing control of his school boards because we're getting people elected fighting ngea, getting parents in to make these changes, he'll use the ag to make sure we can't do these things. he waged war on parents and children for three years. >> all right. 16 minutes after the hour. >> you got it. we turn to some headlines. an idaho judge denies a request from two dozen news organizations to lift a gag order on brian co-burger's murder case. the judge acknowledged the original gag order was overly

broad and agreed to allow the attorneys for both sides to speak with some guide lines. he is accused of killing four university of idaho students last november and his dna was found on the sheet which was on the scene. so called leading scholar at harvard is accused of fabricating findings in a major study about honesty. [laughter] >> no way, you can't make that up. dr. francesca give that, a professor -- gina, a professor of business administration allegedly tampered with data points in which responders were paid to solve puzzles. it was retracted after a blog post accused the professor of tampering with the results of the study on honesty. that's perfect for harvard. rachel: did you rip up their degree. >> i did. more proud of it every day.

a 13-year-old spoke out after narrowing escaping the jaws of aan alligator. he told us about the encounter. >> i felt him pull me down. i was close the sand. i grabbed onto something close. i tried to pull myself up before he could take me down. all i thought was to get away. >> the near tragedy happening in a creek where local kids go swimming. you could see a rope swing there. he's doing just fine now. a few stitches, he got a couple punches in on the alligator and he got out of town. rachel: your son is just off screen. he said he wouldn't have done that, he wouldn't have gone swimming in there, knowing there were alligators there. >> but they go in a creek near our house that has water snakes in it. rachel: gunner. >> two guys sitting at the lunch table at school, i got bit by anil alligator, i got hit

by a shark, who wins. rachel: a shark. is that right, a shark would be cooler? we got gunner approved. alligator or snake, which is cooler story? >> alligator. rachel: gabriel, our guest, you win on that one. >> up next, a challenge to the rnc, our next guest is running for president panned wants to get on the debate stage. rachel: larry elder joins us live with the call to change the requirements. >> and he's got great shoes. get those shoes in the shot. look at that. ♪ while we dream a little bigger. ♪ walk a little taller in our shoes. ♪ lowe's knows you never come in for just one thing. so we've got to know a lot of things about a lot of things. like which mower makes the cut. the mulch that finishes the look. and picking a color that pops. you got this. we got you.

rachel: i'll say this, here's the impossibility for every candidate out there. if you on the one hand if you're going to run against donald trump, you have to attack donald trump. on the other hand, you have to attract the trump voters and it literally is impossibly mathematically let alone chemistry wise don't position yourself as the alternative to trump, position yourself as the alternative to joe biden. that's the advice i would give. >> that was kellyanne conway reminding the crowded gop field who they're fighting against in the push to take back the white

house. >> the next guest is one of those in the ring, republican presidential candidate, larry elder. he joins us now. great to have you on the show. >> thank you for having me. i agree with kelley ann. i don't think the idea is to attack donald trump. i love his policies. i wouldn't be here if i felt that donald trump was nominateable and electable. i think for reasons that are entirely unfair, maybe they'll develop a vaccine for donald trump trump derangement syndrome, i think there's swing voters who wouldn't vote for the man if he walked on water. i need to make the case. i need 40,000 individual donors, go to elderforpresident.com, you can throw as little as one dollar in the tip jar to get up there. i need to talk about the murderous lie that america is systemically racist. it's called the george floyd effect. there's people that are dead that wouldn't be dead if the police were doing normal

proactive policing. we have a massive problem with urban education. 13 public high schools where zero percent of the kids can do math at grade level. the elephant in the room is the epidemic of fatherlessness. rachel: i agree. >> 25% of black kids in 1955 came into the world without a father married to a mother, now that number is 70%. rachel: you don't have a monopoly on that anymore. it's spreading. that's a number one issue as well. you said part of the reason you're running against donald trump is that you don't -- >> not running against donald trump. rachel: you're running for the nomination. fair enough. fair enough. but you believe that suburban women would be more likely to vote for you than donald trump. my understanding is that suburban women maybe have an issue with the abortion issue

or what is it, what is that you can offer them that he can't? >> i think a lot of people in this country, if you make the analogy to golf, look at the golfer's swing, not where the ball lands. they don't like donald trump's style for reasons i said before are almost entirely unfair. may i say one more thing? rachel: sure. >> i'm urging all the candidates to get behind me for what i call enforced law act. we have soft on crime das that have been elected in baltimore, philadelphia, new york, la, chicago, st. louis, san francisco who are not enforcing the law. bad guys are on the streets who are robbing, killing, who wouldn't be there but for the soft on crime las. i'm asking the candidates to back me up on that. >> do you think a the rnc has a fair process. you need 1% in major polls and 40,000 donors. the stage in -- >> i'm not a whiner.

the dnc back in 2020 allowed you to have 1% in the polls which we already have or a certain number of donors, not both. the rnc requires you to have both plus you turn over the donor list to the rnc so they can fund raise off the donor list you made. it seems a little onerous. the other thing, we had this big battle over the debt ceilings and we both know that the debt ceiling is going to be increasing, it always is. the reason this happens is because much of spending is on automatic pilot. i'll use the word unsustainable to describe the so called entitlement problems. nobody wants to run like that because it's electoral suicide. we need an amendment to fix spending to a certain percentage of the gdp with exceptions for war or natural disasters. otherwise the spending will keep going. >> it will be very interesting to see you on the debate stage. glad to hear your voice this northern. >> thanks for your comment on

>> the disparity is so obnoxious that someone would get a pretrial diversion program on a gun charge, you either don't

file the charge or you give them what they deserve and what they score is somewhere in the neighborhood of 24 months on that gun charge. so instead of getting that 24 months, instead of scoring that 24 months he's offered a diversion program which none of my clients, i don't care if they're famous or not famous, i've never gotten that offer on any gun charge in my 26 years. rachel: kodak black, hunter biden and lil wayne guilty of gun charges, but the outcomes were nothing alike. >> sunday morning futures anchor maria bartiromo joins us now to react. your reaction to this? maria: well, look, i think obviously there's another double standard at hand here. i mean, when you look at the gun charge, and we see the impact that the others who have faced the same charges have had, you see the difference here. but it's also the taxes. not paying taxes for two years. i mean, how many times have we heard joe biden say pay your

fair share, okay and now we have this from hunter biden. i think what's even more extraordinary is how the federal agencies slow walked all of this. jason smith, the chairman of the house ways and means committee on friday told me that hunter biden made -- and the biden family took in $17 million from 2014 to 2019 from all different foreign nationals but the fact that the fbi and the doj slow walked it, the statute of limitations came into play and so now we're not even talking about something as far back as 2014 so, no, hunter biden will not face bribery, will not face money laundering, any of that. instead we're focussed on this tax and gun issue. look, i know that the state department and the white house would like everybody to move the hunter biden story off of the front page and start talking about all the drama in russia over the weekend. we're not going to do that on sunday morning futures.

the biggest story of the week was the what's app message from hunter biden. and he is basically doing a shakedown that you would expect in a francis ford copola godfather movie, pay up or you'll face retaliation. we'll talk about the light charges that hunter biden is facing and is agreeing to with representative jim jordan, the chairman of the judiciary committee. we're talking to congressman byron donalds and representative nancy mace on the oversight committee to talk about this investigation. we'll get insight from peter schweizer and miranda divine as well and michael mccall, chairman of the house foreign affairs committee will talk about what went on in russia and the biggest adversaries, russia and china and the provocations because weakness attracts aggression. and we see that over and over. rachel: after the call that you described, the mafia call, the

godfather calls and miraculously $5 million appeared in his account. maria: that's right, 100,000 in one account, another 5 million in another account, $5.1 million was sent to hunter after he said you will face retaliation from the man i'm sitting next to and everyone knows was also the commentary. i mean, it's just extraordinary. this is in black and white. we're going to focus on it. >> do you think it breaks through, you're covering it, we're cover it, does break through and become a real problem. maria: the white house wanted to give the media something else to cover and this is the mo, this is the way they do things. on friday i said wow, what a blockbuster what's app message, i'm sure there will be an enormous story over the weekend that the white house will be pushing to take the story off the front page and sure enough we've got the state department drumming up the drama that took place over the weekend in russia. so i don't know if it's going to break through. the mainstream media has an excuse again not to cover it. they're covering everything

about russia and the wagner group. rachel: it's true. maria: as if it matters to the u.s. right now. rachel: you mentioned the taxes with hunter. he deducted his sex club orgy club off his taxes. he got away with that. maria: unbelievable. smoking crack is another felony, isn't it? >> we'll be watching. maria: thank you. >> coming up on this program, benjamin hall is coming up next.

rachel: a fox news alert. russian mercenaries ending their march towards moscow in a deal forcing wagner chief prigozhin to exile in belarus. >> putin insisting there will be no regime change as uncertainty remains. >> fox news correspondent beaningbenjamin hall knows about ukraine. we're lucky to have him joining us now. great to see you this morning. a lot to digest and unback about what happened in the last 36 hours of this story. what's your take away, what insight do you have into what we watched. >> this is absolutely fascinating. good morning to all three of you. what we thought we saw yesterday was a full on coup, we thought we saw prigozhin and forces moving towards moscow.

he took over the military base. and then he began to move towards the city. putin apparently took a plane out of moscow, he was leaving. the tanks were up in moscow. we were preparing for a civil war. out of know where, the dictator of belarus apparently has come up with some deal whereby prigozhin stepped back. he will go into exile in belars and wagner forces will rejoin the russian army. this began a week ago. we thought that prigozhin's forces were not going to do that, they were not going to join the russian army and were making a stand for it. we've seen an about face. what's most fascinating is not necessarily what happened yesterday and how it's called off, it's the cracks we're seeing appearing inside russia. this is the first time in 20 plus years that putin has faced such a real backlash, attack against his re-jeevment we think it's -- regime.

we think it's the beginning of the end. it's a big impact on what's happening in russia and what's happening in the ukraine war as well. rachel: will that be a good thing. we don't like putin but we don't know what's next, right, the uncertainty. >> it's always been a big worry. you can say putin is behind the russian war. you never know who would replace him. prigozhin is a thug. he's been in jail for nine years. he's a murderer. he's been on the front lines as well. do you want to replace putin with someone whose maybe more of a card core nationalist. is it a benefit for the ukrainians? abs lewdly. the ukrainian forces are reaching out via messaging app to all the russian forces they can reach saying look at the chaos happening in russia. your own government is now fighting itself. why are you sitting in the trenches and fighting. so you have to hope that the very morale of those russian troops who are fighting ukrainians, that is being bled away right now so the ukrainians

think this is a shot for them, for the counter offensive. so a lot of impact we think. big questions about why prigozhin stopped this march on moscow. we're not sure. >> in your experience, how central is the wagner group to russia's ability to hold the line in the war? how big of an impact is it? let's say they don't fold into the russian military or dissipate. what happens? >> they have been key up to now. some of the major pushes we've seen in the east have been led by the wagner forces. these people, many of them they're either well trained and have been working for many years with wagner or they are prisoners who have two options, either fight on the front lines or you die and go back to prison. they've been used on the front they've been critical to russian forces. do they happily settle back into the russian troops or do they not, do they keep rising up? so wagner is key. it's begun to worry russian

forces and putin. there was a consideration they were becoming too strong. that's what we saw yesterday. we saw them rising up again. so the question is to exactly how they play a role in the future. >> benjamin hall. rachel: thank you, benjamin. >> thank you. rachel: great to hear from you. really interesting stuff it could be good for ukraine but loose nukes were something that dan hoffman talked about earlier which we have instability, it could be a big problem for the world. turning now a couple of headlines. police in florida have started to dismantle structures on an island that was taken over by squaters. >> your favorite story. rachel: for sure. >> the island which was located near port orange is known as meth island on social media. >> you could rent that for 10 bucks a night. >> as expected on meth island there's a four story tree house, other huts, a trampoline, swimming pool and other busy work that got done, even booby traps. the island made booby traps to

keep visitors away. >> they have a message board, you can leave messages. >> getting stuff done. >> amazing. >> cleanness to the tree house. >> come to the welcome center. >> swiss family robinson on the island with meth addicts. rachel: we should have the will cain show live from meth island. >.new study reveals that pastors are declining in health. 600 faith leaders said they have seen a drastic drop in community respect over the past eight years, l re. many reported lonelinessand dess emotionally exhausted. >> let's turn to rick reichmuth for the forecast. >> we have a goodcrowd out here this morning. your daughter, she's too shy, she is hiding far away. that's your sister. >> yeah. >> is she shy like this all the time.
