♪ >> once again if you would like to donate to flag football in the bahamas go to fox and friends.com. thank you, kaley, we'll see you back tomorrow. >> bill: this war is back on in a big way. intense fighting in ukraine overnight. zelensky's forces thought to be blowing up a russian ammunition depot and there was a devastating attack by russia. i'm bill hemmer, live on thursday morning. welcome and hello to you. >> i'm shannon bream. this is "america's newsroom."

i usually like to say to you happy friday. happy friday eve. getting us started. russian missiles are blowing the top off an apartment city liviv. >> officials call it a heaviest attack yet. that city is near poland. more than 300 miles from the front lines in eastern and southern ukraine. >> dana: both sounds vowing to respond to this escalating violence as ukraine admits russia has been successful in slowing down its counter offensive. >> bill: a big story overseas. administration has gone back to china again. janet yellen arrived there a short time ago facing a high-stake test to calm tensions between the world's two largest economies as the u.s. and china have a tech war. mike pompeo on deck on this. first to jeff paul with the

latest on ukraine. >> we're following two big stories involving russia. the first being that attack in ukraine but let's get to the possible new whereabouts of russian mercenary leader. he is in russia. originally set to go to belarus as part of a deal. shortly after he ordered his troops to march the moscow. unclear if it's a violation of that deal or granted some permission to travel there to finalize his affairs. but when asked if >> we don't track his movements. we neither have the opportunity to nor wish to do that. there are plans to meet with the russian president. both presidents, putin and --

>> we are looking at lviv. cruise missiles hit a residential area killing four people and injuring dozens. the mayor there says it was the heaviest attack on civilian areas of the city since the war started. more than 60 apartments have been damaged. zelensky is vowing to respond to russia with a, quote, tangible one. >> bill: thank you, jeff. bring in mike pompeo to get his view of the situation and major international i shall jules. to china in a moment. what would you do now given the stubbornness of the ability of the ukrainian to move forward in a big way on russia? >> good morning. the mission hasn't changed. the american interest in ukraine hasn't changed. we should be leaning into this.

we should be providing them every tool that they have asked for so they can do the work they need to do to defeat vladimir putin. that should be the american mission. it should be the european effort, too. they need to do more. what we saw in lviv overnight suggests we haven't done nearly enough. we've been too slow and too concerned. the biden administration is about to head to the nato summit where they will gather. they should be focused on helping ukraine get the things they need. not patting themselves on the back because they've managed to hang together. vladimir putin still has enormous resources and big manpower advantage for sure. but ukrainians have tactical and operational advantages as well and we should help them exploit them in ways that matter to every family in the united states. >> shannon: secretary yellen in china. it communicates and avoids

miscommunication. blinken was over there a couple of weeks ago. one of the things they wanted to reform was military to military communication. china said no thanks. are these trips better for china or us? who is getting the better end of the deal on these trips? >> might have guess is they're probably not very important to either side. if there is an advantage it's probably to the chinese communist party. i'm convinced they see these american leaders going to them as ckowtowing. we have to playoff away games and we come away with nothing on these trips. even the most basic rude men tear communication plans in place with the soviet union for decades hit button in case of emergency, those don't appear to exist and they rebuff our efforts to regain that basic understanding. i think the biden team misses this point. it is not about communication. there is no miscommunication.

the chinese communist party is at economic war with the united states. to say gosh, if we just talked a little bit more xi will change his way is foolish. i think it misunderstands what the chinese communist party is engaged in and it presents enormous risk to every family across american. they'll continue to steal our stuff, intellectual property and continue to conduct espionage operations like the balloon across america. these are things the administration should take much more seriously. sending emissaries to bow town to the chinese communist party in the way we are to gain almost nothing seems like a big foreign policy mistake. >> bill: the trump administration were tough on beijing. i don't know how this administration carries it out over the next two years. the message is don't decouple. would that be yours? >> no, our message would not be let's focus on climate change and don't decouple is their twin

messages they deliver. by the way the chinese aren't likely to do either of those. they won't change their coal-fired power plants from pocks and certain to only decouple when it's to their advantage. we'll protect the american people every day and always. an economic response to demand reciprocity that they treat our businesses in a way that's fair. simply don't hold americans and detain americans when they travel to china. simple things that protect americans and standing up to a chinese communist party that has been after us for decades. 50 years of engagement failed, bill. we turned it on its head. i think the american people understand it was a failed policy and we need to change how we respond to chinese aggression. >> shannon: we still have russian aggression on so many fronts. we're thinking about the "wall street journal" and corporate family colleague evan gershkovitch will mark 100 days

in captivity in russia. talking about a prisoner swap. they love to have an american to use in these negotiations in leverage. you guys had a lot of big headlines in getting people home. how does this play out and work with putin under this administration? >> well, i'm praying for evan and for his family. i pray he will return home safe and healthy just as quick as possibly can be. but shannon your point is well taken. we have britteny griner home and they took another hostage because we traded britney for the merchant of death. a huge mistake. the way we got american hostages home was to use the diplomatic and military might and strength. not trying to trade. when you trade, you only incentivize further hostage taking. i want to get evan back. i hope they have discussions what might be fair and reasonable. but when you take an innocent

american journalist like evan and hold him and demand that you get a bad guy that's held across the world for having killed someone or conducted terrible crimes and you trade those two, we're only likely to see this increase. i would add this. these two ideas aren't different. talking about russia and ukraine and china. xi is looking forward to a continuation of this conflict in ukraine and p counting on vladimir putin to win and american weakness. how we get evan back or assist the ukrainians in prosecuting the war we need to give them american strength. we're capable of either of those. >> bill: russia is always looking for a swap. we'll speak very soon. >> have a great day. >> shannon: within hours of the launch of instagram thread yesterday mark zuckerberg announced more than 10 million people signed up. the twitter killer essentially a

direct copy and is the latest level up in the musk/zuckerberg rivalry. zuckerberg posted the first tweet in 11 years. have you signed up? >> i haven't. >> shannon: i did. you do it through instagram. i'll see if it works well. i'll report back. >> bill: give me the review and i will make a call whether or not i'm on board. sound good? >> shannon: if it merits an appearance by bill hemmer i will let you know. >> bill: 11 minutes past. pocketbook issues. in the palmetto state today president biden set to promote his economic agenda in south carolina. should he be running on or from it? senator and presidential candidate tim scott will be here in a moment.

>> shannon: every parents' nightmare coming through. ransomware criminals putting their children's information online after hacking school networks. >> bill: is this attorney really in charge of the hunter biden investigation or is someone else pulling the strings on this case? >> i even had him repeat that because i knew how important that fact was and i wanted to make sure i understood it. in 2015, my dad had the idea to revitalize american textile manufacturing with bedding crafted from cotton grown on our family farm. we created red land cotton to give you the best farm, the home products possible. because it's more than quality products. it's a labor of love from our family. go to redland cotton dot com and receive 15% off your order with code fox news. veteran homeowners making a big car payment every month? car loans can be expensive and the payments high.

the barrel. we'll see whether or not it sticks. he will talk about biden economics today. he will talk about the infrastructure deal. he is going to talk about the inflation reduction act, whatever that is. how is that working out for the people in the palmetto state? >> well, i hope he will start his apology tour here in south carolina because what the president wants the american people to do is to believe what he says and not what we see with our own eyes. what we see with our own eyes, bill, is a loss of $10,000 of spending power since president biden has taken office. we've seen a 40% increase in gas prices, 20% increase in food, and unfortunately, bill, $2 thousand more is what it costs for electricity coming to your home. but worse than all that, every single month since he has been in office, except for one, inflation outpacing increases in

wages. we've done better and we can do better and when i'm president of the united states, we are going to continue what we did before, cutting taxes, putting more dollars in the pockets of the average family, and increasing an incentive based economy like my opportunity zones. where within those zones wages went up 8% with inflation 2%. we can do better by trusting the american people with their own money. >> bill: interesting person story and talked about that a lot. you mentioned this presidential race. donald trump is raising a lot of money. a lot of money. you are doing well also. are you guaranteed to be on the stage in late august for the first debate? >> we are. we are. the good news is we're meeting all the qualifications. we'll take more help by going to vote tim scott.com and learn more about my candidacy and chip

in and help grow our conservative movement and corridors where it desperately needs to be heard and felt. bring our country together. >> bill: the reason i ask that donald trump seems to be on the fence. i heard rumblings ron desantis might be on the fence, too. >> we should debate the most important issues the american people are going to face. we need strong, powerful, we are -- persuasive and we need to become the party of the future and showcase our leadership skills on the debate stage. >> bill: you are a senator. gop will be in offense for the election. the senate races that appear to be quite competitive. some would favor republicans whether arizona, michigan, montana, nevada. you think about places like

ohio, west virginia, perhaps montana as i just mentioned. do those appear to be pickups for you now, or are they more competitive than the analysts are saying today, senator? >> we learned a lot in 2022. one of the things we learned in 2022 is make sure we put our best team on the field with the resources to play well and i believe in 2024, the top of the ticket will be incredibly important for a red wave to go through the senate races. with me on the top of the ticket, we win back the senate, increase our majority in the house and we have the three levers of government working for the american people and not against the american people. this is the most consequential election for all three areas of government. the top of the ticket, i believe, will have a dramatic impact on the senate races around the country. >> bill: they will hammer you on abortion. in ohio yesterday they are making a move they may have

gotten twice the signatures required to put that on the ballot in the buckeye state. how does that affect the fortunes of the republican party come 2024? >> well, bill, i said it several times. i am 100% pro-life conservative and i have 100% pro-life voting record. i believe that creating the culture of life is important. a 15-week limit stopping the radical left from having abortions up until the day of birth should be our primary objective and that 15-week limit is where 72% of americans are. i'll sign the most conservative piece of legislation you can get to my desk. unfortunately in the current congress not even a 15-week limit will make it through congress. the 20-week limit, didn't make it through congress. we have to win the hearts and minds of the american people. three out of four americans are where we are on the 15-week

limit. >> bill: last point here. just came through the fourth of july holiday. hope you had a good one. want to share this poll with you. the question is are you proud of your country today? 53% say no. i think you just said our founding fathers should be celebrated and not canceled. why is that number so upside down? >> absolutely. too many people on the radical left continue to say that we live in a racist, declining country. the proof of my life disproves the lies of the radical left. when our kids are being indoctrinated and not educated they believe the lies of the left. here is what i can tell you. as a kid who grew up in poverty in a single parent household, my grandfather born in the jim crow south believed then what some doubt now, in the goodness of what america could be. working together, we have realized the american dream.

we should tell the whole story. the story of american progress. it is palpable in this remarkable country. unfortunately, the forces on the left want you to believe a lie. the truth is, we should all be proud to be americans. it is like winning the lottery of citizenship. i can't think of a better place to call home. >> bill: thank you for your time. hope to see you in late august in milwaukee. if not before. tim scott, we'll follow the trip of the president in your state today. thank you for your time right now. >> shannon: a new government study reveals drinking water from nearly half of u.s. faucets contain harmful chemicals. pfas may cause cancer and other health issues. >> what a headline. everyone will look into their cups today harder like what am i drinking? this is scary stuff. some people will say i already

knew it. the u.s. geological survey looked at tap water from city water and wells. they found that pfas, forever chemicals in half of the tests they did. these are chemicals that stay in your body for many, many years. they don't degrade out in the world and yes, could cause cancer. connected as well to kidney failure, high blood pressure and low birth weight in babies. bad stuff, right? the worst hit areas, think about what's around your city. is somebody dumping stuff into the water? eastern seaboard, great lakes, great plains, central, south california. rural areas you guys are in the clear much better. testing hardly found any pfaas in those areas.

what are we doing about it? in march they proposed limits of six types of psas. we won't have a decision until next week. some say the government should go further here and tell the companies hey, you are dumping the stuff in our water in the first place, stop doing it. also treat the water, fix it. stop the pollution. you can treat your water at home and do something about it. according to the minnesota water department use filters with activated carbon or reverse osmosis effective in getting rid of the stuff. not everybody can afford that and we have the right for good, healthy drinking water but we now know. right in time telling myself i need to drink more water. >> shannon: what's surprising for me is public and private wells. it is no respect of person. >> depends on where you live. if you think to yourself the big factory. i wonder what's being dumped in the water. check it out.

>> bill: nice to see you in new york. this now, have a look from years ago. >> if you have a piece of crack cocaine no bigger than this quarter, you are caught with that, you go to jail for five years. >> bill: that was then, 30 years ago. times are changing. president biden wanted people jailed over crack now chuckling over questions about cocaine found inside the white house and give you the update today. enough is enough for philly businesses boarding up and moving out as crime runs wild with no end in sight. lars just by switching. ooooh, let me put a reminder on my phone. on the top of the pile! oh. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ i was told my small business wouldn't qualify for an erc tax refund. you should get a second opinion from innovation refunds at no upfront cost.

fentanyl-laced pills. >> good morning, another horrible story here as this crisis continues to spread across the country, this time impacting di nero's family and his daughter talking about this and now calling for justice demanding answers and asking the nypd to figure out who sold her teenage son these pills. look at your screen. he passed away on sunday according to investigators. the 19-year-old was found dead inside in apartment in the afternoon of sunday. a white powdery substance near his body when they found him. his mom is demanding justice for her son. she posted several tributes on social media as did his dad and other family members explaining her son died after taking pills laced with fentanyl. someone knew they were laced pills but sold them to the teen. for everyone still buying this stuff, my son is gone forever.

the growing crisis across america we've been covering for months. last month the nypd chief of detectives estimating 98% of drugs in new york city are laced with fentanyl. according to the national institute on drug abuse more than 100,000 people in the u.s. die from drug involved overdose deaths in 2021 including a majority from illicit drugs and prescription opioids. ro robert deniro and his family are working with nypd to figure out if there is progress on who sold this. >> shannon: the story of so many american families. >> bill: students and parents calling for help as schools become the targets of cyber criminals. hackers releasing hundreds of thousands of files online with students' confidential data.

we are live on that from dallas today. >> we're talking 5 million students around the country impacted by some kind of ransomware attack that according to cybersecurity firm recorded future had a survey conducted for the center for internet security saying two years ago one in three u.s. school districts had already experienced some kind of breach. experts say schools became prime targets for such crimes with the explosion of remote learning thanks to the pandemic forcing almost all schools to go digital. minneapolis public schools, the most recent target where more than 300,000 personal files were published online after the district refused to pay hackers $1 million in ran some. a similar story in washington when earlier this year crooks accessed personal information on students, faculty and parents. things like social security numbers, medical records, and financial accounts. the breach locked students and

teachers out of their email assignments and schedules and last year los angeles public schools were hit crippling email systems and the district's website when an unspecified ransom was not paid and they stole personal file like medical records of more than 1900 former students adding insult to injury, parents and students claim the district was not forthcoming as it pertained to properly notifying everyone impacted. >> we couldn't get into school until yesterday. i don't recall receiving a cyberattack notification. >> does it concern you at all? >> a lot. >> cybersecurity money for public schools is limited. f.b.i. says giving in to hackers' demands and paying the ransom only encourages the criminals to target more and more victims. >> bill: wow, a story affecting a lot of people. thank you for that.

casey stiegel in dallas. >> shannon: so-called greed inflation is being traded in for wage inflation. wages are growing faster than prices. let's bring in grover nordquist. sorter demand, more supply and rising labor costs take the air out of profit margins but corporations are enjoying record profits in the wake of covid, inflation, all of it a perfect stew. >> i think a lot of it -- look, we should have been coming out during this administration, the biden administration in a period of strong economic growth. all the covid shutdowns were ending even in blue states. two things happened. biden threw more spending on top of the overspending during covid, and you saw the jump in inflation. when a company knows that the

price of energy is going up because the biden administration has that as a policy, they begin to charge more so that they can afford the higher costs that biden is putting on all of their energy and frankly all of their inputs through inflation. so the idea that it's the company's fault that they raised prices when biden raised the cost of all the inputs, and threatened to do more, and threatened to raise taxes, all of these policies raise prices and costs to every american. we're beginning to shut down some of the most dramatic overspending. there won't be any more trillion dollar add-on bills and $2 trillion that biden threw in the first week and a another trillion. with a republican house that's over and not happening. there is a cap on the growth of spending still growing. but more slowly on domestic discretionary and the supreme court and congress said to the president you can't add $4

hundred billion to deficit spending by taking the debt that students had accumulated and putting it on the shoulders of working class americans. progress. >> shannon: is white house is out there touting biden economy, how it is going well. the bidenomics. and they have an all hands on deck full-court press. everybody is talking about it. they'll talk about 13 million jobs created. inflation peaked and on its way down. wage growth is happening. all of these things. how does it line up with reality? >> well, we saw this under bill clinton the first two years of his weren't impressive. the second two years when he lost the house and senate and republicans cut the capital gains tax and stopped overspending, things got better. because the president lost control. biden has lost control not of the regulatory costs he puts on energy, but on over spending and the tax policies, his policy, his budget would take the

corporate income tax higher than china's capital gains tax in the united states double china's. none of those things will happen now. the economy is looking ahead and saying all the things we planned biden would do to further hurt the economy, the foot has come off the throat. we should see things get a little bit better because biden is being stopped from spending $4 hundred billion on student debt, doubling the capital gains tax in the united states. those things aren't happening now. that's the good news. >> shannon: they are leading with that on the campaign trail. poll numbers show not exactly lining up with reality yet. thank you so much. good to see you. >> bill: there is a democratic mayor comparing the homeless crisis to a natural disaster. >> my own wish is we would treat it like it's a hurricane. that there would be a state of emergency that would be acknowledged on a national level that would allow us to bring in fema.

that's how i view it. >> bill: cities spending a lot of money to get people off the streets. is it working? we'll check in on l.a. plus this. >> but why would any woman want to do that? >> i changed it so i could get married. >> bill: the truth shall set you free. >> bill: what do you think of that? who can you really trust? find out the generation most likely to lie. don't miss it. stand by.

♪ >> shannon: can you trust a millennial? recent survey says you should be skeptical. more than one in ten admitted to being dishonest at least once a day. 2% say they deserve on daily. gen z and gen x in the middle. it's like somebody saying do i look great in this outfit and you say yes and they don't. is that kind of a lie?

is it honest and truthful? everybody does that every day. you can't say you never do that. although -- >> bill: gen z up to age 45. boomers up to age 60. karaoke is one of your favorite things to do in the world. you were doing a little of it. here we go to l.a. now. we have big issues with the homeless. check it out. >> it was completely quiet and safe and boring in a good way. now i'm afraid to go out without my pepper spray. they are supposed to be housed by now and it is supposed to put no camping signs up. >> i think something has to change. people are going to just leave california. >> i'm wondering where the money is even going. >> bill: dem-led cities pouring money into the homeless crisis. is it helping? homeless population in l.a. growing 10% over the last year swelling from 69,000 to more

than 75,000 living on the streets. the mayor is trying to do something. dave rubin left california to florida and hosts the rubin report. karen bass is the new mayor program called c.i. safe trying to pull people out of tents and put them in temporary housing. how do you think it is going to go? >> bill, i promise you, you can hold this clip for eternity, it is going to go horribly awry. every single thing that progressives do goes horribly awry. let's not forget it was gavin newsom, once progressive mayor of san francisco about 15 years ago who said he had his 10-year plan to eliminate homelessness in san francisco. san francisco has 40,000 homeless people most of whom are drug addicts. everyone knows about the urban decay there.

40,000 is less than 70,000 you mentioned in los angeles. but san francisco is a much smaller city. so everywhere that progressives take over, whether it's los angeles, whether it's san francisco, whether it's philadelphia, whether it's new york city, the list goes on, seattle, portland. these things are no coincidental. when they take over they have allow drugs on the street. they tell you you won't be arrested for petty crimes and things of that nature and the average person, the average law abiding tax paying person flees and i'm happy when you remind the audience i live in florida. we have 1,000 homeless people in miami. i just checked before the show. and the mayor here in miami, francis suarez, he is working on that, that's with 1,000. these things are not disconnected from policy and people need to understand that. >> shannon: my home state, florida, is the most excellent state of all time. of course you would want to live there. listen to the numbers.

the cities dealing with this. l.a. and nyc. both up. how much about is the criticism you get at the border. if you have policies that are magnets that promise people you'll make life easier for them and help them. as soon as people need help he will show up to those places. >> look at new york city is the best example of this. eric adams said new york city is a sanctuary city. we won't arrest you, you can basically people are doing drugs on every street corner. i don't have to tell you guys, you're in new york city now. what happens? their homeless shelters get overrun with illegal immigrants and then adams says no, we don't want anymore. florida operates in a different way. ron desantis has made it clear we're a law and order state. if you are illegal and breaking the law by very definition and we are not going to tolerate it here. if california wants to be a

sanctuary state, congratulations. if new york city wants to be a sanctuary city, congratulations. it puts strain on the average person, the guy watching this now who has a job, who is trying to live right and raise a family and everything else, pay their taxes, etc. their money is supporting people who are illegal and bringing crime and god only knows what else in terms of culture and everything else. this is the problem everywhere. without exception. someone watching this or you guys can show me the progressive city in the united states of america that is clean, that has a lower amount of homeless people and a thriving economy. it doesn't exist. >> bill: she said i want to see the tents disappearing and not coming back. we'll stand by for news on that. dave rubin, we'll keep the interview. nice to see you. thanks for coming on. >> shannon: a small break through for kohberger's defense. how his team got records they say are crucial to his case.
