3:00 am
for joining us this morning. enjoy the state fair. >> thank you so much, carley. i appreciate it. >> carley: eat all the food on stick. >> pork on a stick, bacon on a stick, butter on a stickers put it on a stick and make it fried elder will hear it. >> carley: good here. all right, larry elder, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> carley: with that "fox & friends" starts right now have. a good friday, everybody. >> ashley: have a good day. >> ainsley: we begin this morning with a fox weather wildfire alert. 55 people confirmed dead in the wildfires that are still burning on the hawaiian island of maui. >> brian: nearly 1,000 customers are without power on the island and that's complicating search and rescue missions making communication impossible. >> steve: fox weather correspondent max gorden is live in maui where it is at this moment midnight and, max, they say that at least 1,000 people are still missing. >> yeah. it's just a heart breaking situation for so many residents here. people not knowing the fate of
3:01 am
their family members, their loved ones, communication systems are down on the west side of the island, 911 isn't operable. cell service isn't possible. right now we're standing at a road block on the road to lahaina. this is one of the hardest hit areas. right now residents aren't being let in and they won't be let in for the foreseeable future. evacuations are still ongoing. people being bused out of the fire zone. this as the death toll from these fires continues to rise. now, search and rescue teams have been in maui from all over the country. the national guard is also here on the ground. take a listen. >> the national guard hag activated 134 national guard personnel. 99 from the army national guard and 35 from the air national guard to assist with the ohio wildfire response. >> several fires burning on the island of maui since tuesday. none of them fully contained
3:02 am
according to officials here. still unknown how these fires started. the most destructive the fire on maui's west side, which ripped through the community of lahaina going block after block, destroying homes and businesses there. fed by dry conditions and fierce winds caused by a pressure change between strong high pressure to the north and hurricane dora as it passed hundreds of miles south of the coast. according to hawaii's governor the fire destroyed more than 1,000 buildings in ha line in a and damaged the ban i don't know tree the once peaceful island paradise now looking taya war zone. >> there will be active recovery over the coming days and weeks of the. it will take time. to say get perspective it, going to take many years to rebuild la linena. when you see the full -- the full extent of the destruction of lahaina it will shock you. it does appear like a bomb and
3:03 am
fire went off. >> now, cell towers and communication systems have been destroyed by this fire. mobile hot spots are being set up. so communication can be a little bit easier. but, it's just been a nerve-racking, heart wrenching few days for folks here on the island of maui who don't note fate of their loved ones and friends. back to you. >> steve: hey, max, i was reading in one of the patience this morning, that apparently there are questions now rising over whether or not the officials there in maui notified people with enough urgency hey, you have really got evacuate now. >> there are questions whether b. whether or not evacuation orders were issued quickly enough. this was a situation seemed to keep people off guards. folks that maybe weren't monitoring the media and their phones and the winds really whipped up, made this fire very fast-moving. the dry conditions really made it tough for firefighters to catch this thing. i think there's going to be a lot of questions in the days and
3:04 am
weeks to come about the response, about whether people were notified in a timely manner or not. but, right now, it's all about the recovery efforts and about the search for survivors and the dead. >> ainsley: are they telling you how most of these people died? because i have heard there were maybe some drownings, people trying to escape. >> yeah, unfortunately, people had to jump into the ocean to try escape the flames in some cases. a lots of buildings in the town of la linena, very old, wooden buildings. not necessarily built the same fire codes that, you know, we all know of today. so, this fire moved very quickly block by block, really kind of like a domino effect through the town. so, yeah, we're going to be learning we have not been able to get to lahaina just yet. hopefully learn more answers to the questions in the coming days. >> brian: max, quick questions, you hear about fires under control. you think california.
3:05 am
it wouldn't surprise you in arizona and nevada but i always thought of hawaii as a lush area that would be easier to contain because of the moisture. am i wrong? >> yeah. that's a great question. now, of course, maui, you think of it as a lush island paradise but there had been a drought that's been ongoing for the past couple of months. things have been very dry here. so you take these dry conditions. there's low humidity on that day. and then you have these winds, 70, 80 miles per hour just whipping and you really created a perfect storm, a perfect firestorm. firefighters that i talk to who were battling the blaze said it did feel like they were battling one of these massive infernos that you see in california or in the american west. and, really, these firefighters were outnumbered in some cases. they didn't have a lot of support. they didn't have the vast numbers like you see in california with cal fire issuing these big responses. so it was just a stuff fire
3:06 am
fight there for a long time. and, unfortunately, there were deadly results. >> steve: no kidding. >> ainsley: i was on instagram earlier and put in #maui, hawaii. a lot of people edited video together over very sad songs showing the very heart breaking video and pictures what looks like now. homes gone cars it completely gone. he is pledged $1,000 per birdie over the next pga tours he participates in. >> steve: the fedex cup? >> ainsley: yeah his grandparents were from this area and had a picture there. >> answered posted a picture of his grandmother's restaurant. >> steve: tell you a story about a family that was trapped in a van as the flames in lahaina were all around them and because all the cell service was out, they couldn't make an emergency call. but then one of the people in the vans remembered hey, we have
3:07 am
got the iphone with that thing where we can actually use satellite technology. and they did the 911 through the satellite. kurt the cyberguy is going to show you how your iphone, i think if you have an iphone 7 or better there san s.o.s. function. if you have got one of the new ones it actually has a satellite function that saved the lives of a bunch of people in a van. you're going to hear that 7:00 eastern right here on "fox & friends." >> ainsley: gosh, that's good information to know. even if you are not in this situation. >> steve: i know, i was looking at kurt's card for the segment we are going to do in 52 minutes. and then i went into my iphone to make sure it was turned on properly. and now i'm thinking about buying the people in my family new iphones so they have got the new technology. >> ainsley: do live 360. our family does that so we know where everyone is all the time. >> steve: you need cell phone technology. the new iphones actually use satellites which is amazes. >> brian: talk about another story that broke yesterday. we still don't have the details
3:08 am
nor is the deal culminated. five iranian americans held unjustly in iran have been moved to a safe house or a different location now into house arrest from their brutal prison situation. in exchange, it seems, for $6 billion of oil revenue that was in south korea. now, we did not know this thing was in the works. you always look to get hostages out. but these five being held unjustly is not unusual, sadly. that's what iran does. buff you have to wonder what else we gave up and what's that $6 billion being used for? to continue to harass ships in the strait of hormuz. continue to make drones for russia to kill innocent people in ukraine in we're doing another deal with the devil with iran as long as you feel for the five and happy for those families. it shows that taking hostages pays. >> steve: and we have seen that all over the world. these people were accused of
3:09 am
being spies. it's a serious of steps that they have been negotiating for months. the first step apparently has happened this week. that first step was iran has released these five people with dual citizenship. iranian americans to safe houses or, you know, a couple are in hotels. a couple are in other places. and then in four to six weeks, because it is -- there are so many sanctions slapped on iran and the financial community, it's going to take four to six weeks to get the money into a bank in cutter. cuttercut qatar of this wholede. we are telling them that iran can draw the $6 billion that was held by south korea bank for years. they can use it only for food or humanitarian purposes. food, medicine, stuff like that. we're trusting qatar to do the right thing. obviously we don't have iran to have the money to buy and build
3:10 am
bomb parts. >> brian: and they will. >> steve: we want them to tonal use it according to this deal for stuff to keep people alive. >> ainsley: this 6 billion was frozen and now we are agreeing to unfreeze it. iranian assets in south korea. we are transferring the funds into an account in the central bank the qatar. first, these americans have to be released. that apparently has happened. >> steve: step one. >> ainsley: on house arrest. they left prison. hotel and house arrest and allowed to board a plane. apparently the fifth person. the two of you saw we put pictures of the three individuals two we don't have their pictures. family requested they don't release their names because they don't want anyone to know who he they're. one is dual citizenship. said to be released earlier this year and on house arrest still there as well and not back here in america. and the state department says while we welcome the news of these individuals released from prison to house arrest. they should have never been in prison in the first place. they are saying they are spies
3:11 am
and we are saying they are not. we continue to work to bring these individuals home to their loved ones. they must be allowed to depart iran and with their loved ones as soon as possible. >> brian: mike pompeo almost immediately released a statement as the former secretary of state. bad move. watch. >> i always welcome the idea of americans are hostages beings released i think president biden's decision to give $5 billion to the mull laws in tehran is a disgrace. the united states of america doesn't pay ransom. and the very idea that we would transfer $5 billion to the mullahs so that they can continue to support russia's unconscionable invasion, they can continue to s sow violence across the region unconscionable. >> billion dollars a hostage. that market price be 'the chance they will take more american
3:12 am
hostages only increases as a result of this. >> brian: i worry about the deal we don't know about. worry about the negotiations going on in secret until after it was leaked out in oman in nuclear deal. i worry about the relationship we have built on the abraham accords simply because we all agreed iran was the problem in the middle east and burgeoning deal working out between israel and saudi arabia in order to recognize israel's trite exist and recognize each other's nations and then you wonder, too, the people that will be most upset about this, because it's leading towards another nuclear deal would be israel. because they know exactly what iran wants to do, and that's wipe them out'. and one way to do that would be to get rid of these sanctions and build up their military. >> steve: well, let's hope qatar keeps an eye on the money. you never know. >> ainsley: hope it doesn't go tone riching uranium and stockpiling it. >> steve: meanwhile, let's talk about this. about a year ago when the inflation was through the roof. they cooked up this bill in
3:13 am
washington, d.c. and they sold it as-they started calling it the inflation reduction act. the ira. here's the thing. on this couch and elsewhere on this channel we were saying there's not that much in there to reduce inflation. we're telling you, there's not. and, in fact, now we know the president has admitted just that the name probably not a good name for it. here's a flashback. let's get in the wayback machine. here's the president last july talking about the inflation reduction act really reducing inflation. not kidding. >> the fact is that my message to congress is this: this is a strongest bill you can pass to lower inflation, cut the deficit, reduce healthcare costs, tackle the climate crisis and promote energy security. august the time while routeing the burdens facing working class and middle class families. so pass it. pass it for the american people. pass it for america.
3:14 am
>> steve: right. >> ainsley: he just said that was a year ago. that was last july right before it passed. he said the strongest bill you can pass to lower inflation. >> steve: which we all wanted to have done. >> brian: no one saw that. >> ainsley: now he regrets saying that, listen. >> steve: we have a quote. >> ainsley: sorry. it says i wish i hadn't called it that. it has less to do with reducing inflation than it does providing for alternatives that generate economic growth. and, so, we are now in a situation where if you take a look at whether a we're doing in the inflation reduction act, we are literally reducing the cost of people being able to make their -- well, meet their basic needs. even when there is inflation, there is a way to provide breathing room. >> brian: hey, everything that weerg said about it is not going to reduce inflation and you can call it attacks from republicans. >> ainsley: he is saying republicans are right? >> brian: 100 percent right. this phrase he says the quiet part out loud is fascinating because he seems to do this on a
3:15 am
regular basis. you talk about cities where the inflation is really hitting, denver you probably know all about, atlanta, detroit, seattle, the cities seeing the lowest inflation. those are the high here are the lows, minneapolis, chicago, boston, washington and anchorage. why did we get the inflation reduction act? will because joe manchin for some reason caved they last minute. listen the original idea was too high what if you came down a little bit and also what the president wants to do is tell people that i'm really really green. and everything i'm doing i'm getting rid of horrible oil and gas and inflation reduction act throwing off penal said he wasn't doing enough. now he says let me get rid of the fake name and tell you what i was really up to in the hope of winning those people over. >> steve: that's what washington does. never let a crisis go to waste. what's the biggest problem? inflation. let's call it the inflation reduction act. now he says he did a different
3:16 am
name. really what it is. the joe biden re-election act. because, essentially all this stuff in there right now is what he is running on. he is out in the west coast. he was out in the west coast talking about all about look at all the stuff i'm doing to combat climate change. it's so hot out here because of that and we have got all this green energy stuff, blah blah blah blah blah. >> brian: one of the reason we are 1.7 trillion overdrawn for the year is because of spending programs like that that fit an agenda but don't benefit the country. >> steve: thanks joe manchin. >> ainsley: now want you to pay off everyone's college. >> brian: really joe biden. >> ainsley: joe manchin. he might become an independent. >> steve: you think so? >> ainsley: we're going to talk about it coming up. >> steve: we are. >> brian: look at senator tester. effort lay moderate. senator coons says i'm moderate. i want to work with the other side. pressure always goes on sinema and manchin. there is a lot of other people hiding behind their skirts. >> ainsley: more moderate. >> brian: claim to be moderate
3:17 am
when they go for re-election but don't. >> steve: it's working because joe biden is the one that gets the blame. it is a friday in the summer. that means it's all-american summer concert series that means midtown smells like a great big barbecue joint. >> ainsley: it smells great. the mclemores are smoking barbecue on the fox square. good morning, guys. >> good morning. >> good morning, what's up. ainsley, steve, brian, i love it when my brother does these kind of things to me. we are going to be celebrating a lot. we are super excited about low cash being in the house this morning. and what we have got the mclemores are bringing you a little bit of rotisserie lemon pepper brian chicken. we got this going on the master built. check this out master built.com for all the recipes. this amazing grill. also sending in to you all a surprise this morning. >> not a surprise anymore. >> call this the belly pop. this is a belly -- pork belly that is rolled up into a
3:18 am
lollipop. sending that in to you guys. 7:00 another surprise for you, too. >> if you didn't see this down here you know we always go big. so we're going to be bringing this on stage for l loc cash. >> this is the kind of blue smoke you want to smell. >> walk towards the smoke. >> steve: mclemore boys thank you very much. >> ainsley: outside on 48th and sixth avenue. if you are in new york come listener to locash they sing i love this life two. guys lots of songs. >> brian: very optimistic. >> ainsley: you always say rachel campos duffy. one woman three names. >> steve: coming up, thanks for joining us, spy agencies are will now apparently share more intel with private companies in the private sector to battle emerging threats like pandemics and cyberattacks. form other defense department

3:26 am
>> carley: sure was. >> steve: thank you, carley. meanwhile american spy agencies will now share more intelligence with the private sector to deal with rising threats from around the world. the office of the director of national intelligence saying, quote: the intel community will invest in developing innovative methods and cultivating new sources and work for systematically with public and private sectors to facilitate a common understanding of technological and other risks. what the heck does that mean? let's call in tech policy center director at heritage and former dodd counter-terrorism expert kara frederick. >> good morning, steve. >> sounds like the intel is going to work with private sector entities, presumably, what universities, big companies, stuff like that. if you see something, you tell us. and if we see something, we will tell you? >> yeah. there seems to be the idea that
3:27 am
there will be an expanded partnership between public and private sectors. now, there's good ways that this can occur. you have notification of imminent cyberattacks say if the u.s. government, if intel agencies recognize that there's going to be some sort of chinese communist party probing attack that might hurt our critical infrastructure that's run by a commercial company. that's great. so cyberattacks, warnings, intel exchanges that is wonderful there has to be legitimate national security issues here again like those potential cyber hacks like legitimate foreign terrorism. but it's when these private companies and the government start sharing information like with the fbi's foreign influence task force that leads to the policing of speech of americans like we have seen with the twitter files, like we have seen with the potential failed disinformation governor nance board, then it becomes a problem. >> steve: you know, kara, as you were talking, i was thinking
3:28 am
about remember the hack, the colonial pipeline hack attack done by russian hackers and our president said hey, putin, if you guys ever do that again we're going to come after you a bunch of foreign hackers done the same thing. i don't see us going after them is this something the intel community does hitting hackers in russia and we can't see it happening. >> that's the part of it. there was a national cyber strategy that came out that advocated for more forward leaning operations so get in there. you know, mess up their networks before they can come and attack ours. so there are a lot of things going on behind the scenes that we don't necessarily in the public spaces that are good. they are creating what they call tackle friction to, again, to confuse those hackers and, frankly, attempt to deter them by being more aggressive. by being more offensive. so, that's a good thing. ostensibly this national
3:29 am
security intelligence strategy, stands to look to do more things like that. when the government co-includes some with these private companies and turns inward on americans that when it becomes problematic if it can restrict those-to-those pure legitimate national security threats. >> steve: that's a big if. let's hope they do. right? >> definitely. >> steve: thank you very much for joining us live today. have a great weekend. >> thanks, steve. >> steve: you bet. 6:29 here in the east. and we got a fox wildlife -- rather, wildfire alert. wildfires ripping through maui in what could be the largest natural disaster hawaii has ever seen. we will have a lahaina resident join us who says she has lost everything. ♪ i'm saving with liberty mutual, mom.

>> ainsley: fox wildfire alert. at least 55 people now are confirmed dead in maui this morning. as hawaii's governor says this week's wildfires will likely be the largest natural disaster the state has ever seen. satellite images show the historic town of lahaina just before and then after being destroyed by this fire. and amanda cassidy is a lahaina resident who said she lost everything in this fire and she joins us now. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> ainsley: amanda, i'm so sorry. i can't imagine what you are going through. you survived katrina and now you moved to hawaii and you are experiencing this. how do you handle it? >> stay focused. >> ainsley: yeah. how do you know -- tell us what happened. were you at home and you got the alerts and you fled? >> so, there were no alerts. there was no emergency sounds. they did not send -- sound off
3:36 am
the tsunami warnings. we do that every month on the first of the month. the sirens sound. they did not do that as a warning to get out. the fire started just behind my house maybe a half a block away. i smelt fired. i went outside. i saw smoke. and i saw that it was dark so i was like okay, quickly, let's move, let's pack. my boyfriend watched the fire to, you know, give us warning about, you know, how quickly it was moving. and he went from okay, you are good. okay, you are good. keep packing to let's go, it's time to go. and so we -- that's why we left is because we were right next to it. i think we spent maybe 5 to 7 minutes packing. >> ainsley: oh my gosh. what do you grab in that moment? >> you know, i would have thought that i would have grabbed so much more. but in the moment you think you are going to be able to come back and even though i know in a lot of scenario you can't come back, especially with my life
3:37 am
experience, i didn't really matter. it just was enough clothing to make sure that i, you know, i had like a camping trip. you pack, you bring some warm stuff, some cold stuff and you figure it out. >> ainsley: did you lose -- what did you lose? did you lose jewelry, pictures, bibles? what did you lose? >> oh, we lost everything. my house is flattened. nothing to go back to, two vehicles, a mope head, a brand new $5,000 bed that i bought because i'm a bartender and, you know, sleep is important. and your body is important, you know. i have lived on island for four years. i have built up with anybody would in four years. my younger brother just moved in with me last year. he is 21. and you know, i was in control of everything. i was having to get my family out. it was me and my boyfriend and my brother. we left and we drove down to go
3:38 am
get my friend out from her house, nina. and we got out. there was a tree on -- half of a tree on her car. and they pulled the car. >> i ran in to get her dog's food because she was worried. she was about 7 imloks down from me. give or take. down behind lahaina. we left there. there was so much traffic to get down front street. i was sitting there and i'm like i can't sit here. we're not moving. this isn't safe. we need to go. so i hopped into the other lane, of course, there was nobody approaching, and i was very calm and cool and collected and diligent in knowing what i was doing and where i was going and what my actions were. i wasn't driving recklessly because that just causes problems. we got down to her girlfriend's house claire and we knocked on
3:39 am
all of the apartment doors. one of the few buildings that are left standing in lahaina from what i heard. it's behind the dirty monkey, which is where i bartend. one of the bars that i bartend at. and we were knocking on doors because everyone was having a hurricane party. >> this is the first hurricane that i have experienced that had no rain because it was so far away. we had like 50 to 80 mile-per-hour winds, i believe. that's what allowed the fire to spread so quickly. but we got a lot of our friends out. and then we left and we were driving up north on the street behind the outlets of maui between smokehouse barbecue. again, hit traffic there. and people were really hesitant with their movement. they didn't know where to go or if they should -- if they should like take off and speed away like people were not making decisions quickly. so, again, i went around traffic and i left. i ended up in another bunch of
3:40 am
traffic. and it was just the smoke was getting darker and darker and darker. and i have some friends that got stuck there i have people left their cars to jump in the ocean. >> ainsley: sorry to interrupt you. do you know anyone who lost their life? >> >> i have friends of friends who have -- are getting confirmation as far as. >> they are reporting 50, 55 people. what i have heard from people on the ground there is a lot more than that they were pulling bodies out of the water. >> ainsley: amanda, again, i'm so sorry for everything you are going through. our viewers have a heart for y'all. we are praying for you all. we wish you all the best, amanda. glad you are safe. >> thank you. >> ainsley: check in with meteorologist adam klotz for fox weather forecast. oh my gosh, adam, to hear her tore story. >> it is absolutely horrible. this is what maui looked like
3:41 am
from satellite just a couple days ago and take you to today. you see these big scars from these giant wildfires the weather conditions that kind of set this up. largely had to do with some of the wind conditions that we just heard her speaking about. now, here overnight, mostly calmed down, you are looking at winds 5 to 6 miles per hour. there is one gust out there 23 miles per hour. winds were way stronger whether these fires originally got going. they will pick up again a little bit today. remember those winds were up to 40, 50, 60 miles per hour. here over the next couple of days 10 on the high end up to 3. those are powerful winds. can still move fires just a little bit backed off from where we are. also the big factor in this how dry the island is. rainfall totals for the season across the entire island. only spot below there is in the maui area. now, here in the next seven days, this is actually happening today. here in the next seven days the rain is going to document island and certainly any help they can get they will take it. those are your headlines for you.

every day. it's costing my community millions and millions of dollars when public safety, national security, or humanitarian. but what amazes me, we have been soundings alarm here on the border for some time and nobody -- the fall government is not coming to help us. can i promise you that or many other sheriffs on the border. but if when you have mayors who have open -- turned the green light on, say come to us we have a plethora of resources which they do compared to us, that they're dropping millions of dollars in these communities to help them. it's not solving the issue, brian that, is to secure the border. >> steve: sheriff, here in new york city, the mayor said it's costing taxpayers here $10 million a day, obviously they -- one of the administration guys went to talk to the mayor yesterday. i hope they cut a deal. where the administration will give new york some money to offset some things. but, ultimately, school is just around the corner. there are going to be so many classrooms in cities all across america which are going to be loaded with children from another country who don't speak

but they are also getting the support, ainsley and that's what is amazing. we're not dealing with the root cause. not dealing with law enforcement on the border. communities on the border. whether it's hospital, medical care, education. whether it's public safety, prosecution. just the destruction that we are dealing with here in our county. they are not helping us. it's amazing because they don't want to help. they don't want a secure border. we have to accept that that is a new -- i call it the new normal on our border that we deal with every day. >> steve: politics. >> brian: now you brought it to their living room and asking for other people to help. i wonder if the american people are going to make them pay the price for breaking about the border on election day. it would make your life so much easier. sheriff, thank you so much. >> thank you, brian. thank you, ainsley and steve. >> steve: good luck to you. >> brian: meanwhile. >> thank you. >> brian: biggest scam of modern times. that's what one man is saying about his ford ev which he had to ditch for a gas powered rental on his family trip.
