i'm offended. steve when will you right a jingle? >> how would it sound? i don't know if i can do that. i have to get all your names to rhyme. >> ainsley: download the country truth. some of our favorites are on there. >> steve: thank you very much. we're not offended. >> bill: okay, here we go. debate night in milwaukee 36 hours from now. stage is set. lineup confirmed. who will seize the moment. we're going to find out. that's why we watch. good morning. tuesday here in new york. i'm bill hemmer. hello to you at home and here. >> dana: ready? >> bill: yeah. why don't we do it now? >> dana: the run-up is what we're looking forward to. i'm dana perino. the lineup for tomorrow's debate eight candidates met the criteria signing a pledge to back the eventual nominee.
6:01 am
>> bill: final prep is underway in milwaukee. debate the unofficial kickoff for the 24 election cycle. it is also a critical opportunity for candidates in need of a break-out moment. >> dana: ronna mcdaniel is here and tell us what she is expecting from this group of candidates. >> bill: team fox coverage begins in milwaukee. grady trimble on what voters want to hear. we begin with alexis mcadams. set the stage for us there as the candidates get ready. good morning, alexis. >> hi, bill. waiting to see here in milwaukee and all eyes on the debate stage. we talked to people on the ground who say they are looking forward to hearing from these candidates out there talking about policy and introducing themselves to the american public. everyone is preparing differently as we showed you. vivek ramaswamy is playing tennis, other people are spending hours on the preparations. two candidates will be out there have done this before, former vice president mike pence and former new jersey governor chris christie. all the people we talked to on
6:02 am
the ground say they're ready to introduce everyone to america. watch. >> i'm really going in with an open mind. i don't know a lot about the other candidates. i have been watching the other side just as well and see what's going to happen. >> i am looking to see real policy disagreements between them. and i don't know, i suppose considering maybe the leading republican candidate is hard for me to find substantive differences between them. >> ron desantis had a pre-debate party yesterday shaking hands with people and the large crowd. they expect desantis to be a tar guest on the debate stage. why? they think he is the strongest candidate saying he is ready to battle it out. >> i'm going to make the case that under joe biden this country is in decline. we need to send biden back to his basement in dell warily and reverse the country's decline. i can do it. i have proven it in the state of florida and i won't let people
6:03 am
down as the next president. >> so the rnc released a list of the eight candidates who qualified to be on the debate stage for the debate in milwaukee. missing from the list is former president donald trump. back out here live voters on the ground say they're ready to listen to the other candidates. there won't be a light on the former president. they want to see what the people will do and how they connect with the american public. >> bill: thank you, we'll see you later in milwaukee. >> dana: president biden is talking up bidenomics as a key selling point in his bid for re-election. the latest polling shows americans aren't buying that. grady trimble fox business live in milwaukee with that part of the story. hi, grady. >> good morning to you. tomorrow night republicans will have a chance to share their vision for the economy and contrast it to bidenomics. you said it, the fact is voters are not pleased with the state of the economy right now. in fact, in our latest fox news
6:04 am
poll eight in ten say the economy is in bad shape. more than half of voters say president biden has made it worse and some here tell us they feel it every time they buy food and fuel. >> just came out of the grocery store. inflation is a big one. where this whole economy has gone is not good. >> how do you feel about the current state of the economy if you had to rate it? >> if i had to rate it 1-10? probably four. it's not good. things are very expensive. >> we caught up with wisconsin congressman brian stile. he says for those on the debate stage focusing on kitchen table issues will help win over independent voters. >> so this conversation really needs to be about where we're taking the country, getting our spending under control, reducing inflation, unleashing american energy. securing the border.
6:05 am
the topics independent voters will be interested in and republicans have the answers for these. >> president biden was just in this city exactly one week ago trying to sell bidenomics. but as you saw in our polling, bidenomics is extremely unpopular. so the republican candidates on the debate stage, dana, will have a chance to propose their alternative. dana. >> dana: no doubt people are looking at the economy as a big one. >> bill: ronna mcdaniel, thank you for your time today, chair of the rnc. she has a big week. how much of this do you want to be about each other and how much of this would you like to see about joe biden? >> well, in my dream world it would be all about joe biden. i don't love seeing republicans attacking each other. it is fine to contrast issues. i want to keep focused on what our pledge was, beat biden. people are hurting. we're in wisconsin, a
6:06 am
battleground state. cost of living is up. gas prices are up. we know families are dealing with financial death by a thousand cuts under bidenomics and they want to see us talk about issues but i want to contrast our vision with american versus the failure of joe biden. >> dana: doug high is a veteran guy. candidates must take a risk at the debate. otherwise rearranging deck chairs on a boat without leaving port. one of the things people are wondering. former president trump isn't there. he has a commanding leads amongst the field. you also have the record of the republican party from 2020 and 2022 being a disappointment. what would be anything different this year than those previous ones? >> i think, dana, the biggest difference is right now, i think, a lot of people haven't been paying attention to
6:07 am
politics. this has been the first summer we've had post pandemic to be with our families, get our kids off to school. i view the general election starting now where we get to talk about joe biden and what he has done to this country. you can talk about 100,000 deaths from fentanyl. talk about an open border with record migrant crossing last month, 183,000. you can talk about crime surging and talk about the deficits that kids are facing in the classroom especially in reading and math where we're behind the world on these key metrics. so when we talk about those things and then you talk about school choice and law and order and closing the border and shutting down fentanyl, we can make a mark. it will be independent voters that we will need to win this general election. i don't look at it as the primary. i think the general election starts tomorrow. >> bill: voters in wisconsin. give a listen here, olivia
6:08 am
dalton yesterday traveling about the president. >> will you watch the republican debate on wednesday? >> i don't know. i sure hope not. >> bill: i don't know if folks at home caught that. i don't know, i sure hope not. the laughter and i hope for his sake. wisconsin is a battleground. i don't know if it's ohio or florida from 20 years ago. how do you see it now knowing how close it has been the last two cycles? >> well, i have a feeling president biden will be on a beach somewhere in delaware eating ice cream. what i will say about wisconsin is, it's a purple state. we had key ticket splitting in 2022 in the mid-terms. i think the midwest you cannot win the white house without a state in the midwest. wisconsin will be pivotal.
6:09 am
>> dana: a month from next week you will have a second rnc debate. you increase the requirements to get on the debate stage between now and then. do you expect to have the same number of candidates on the stage next month as you are going to have tomorrow night? >> i don't know. what i will say is when we put out the criteria for the first debate a lot of people said we can't get 40,000 small unique donors. every single candidate running on our ticket were able to meet that threshold. they've met a lot of the polling thresholds. we felt this criteria was viable to win the nomination and presidency. we're pleased to see that. we're glad we have eight. that's great. and we look forward to as many can make it to simi valley in september. >> bill: first step is milwaukee. see you tomorrow. thank you for your time.
6:10 am
the thing that's important about the wisconsin choice, what they did in ohio in 2016. had the first debate there in the summer of 2015, came back the next summer for the convention. that's what they are doing for wisconsin. the debate is now. convention is next july in wisconsin. ten electoral votes all matter in a country that's 50/50. >> dana: we have the supreme court special election in wisconsin this past spring. it was something to watch. democrats came out in force. a lot of work to be done for both parties in this one. the first republican debate is tomorrow night at 9:00 p.m. eastern. check out "america's newsroom" live from milwaukee tomorrow and thursday. also doing the debate pre-game tomorrow night at 8:30. that will feature the national anthem sung by natalie grant. a nine-time grammy nominee. that is not to be missed. really looking forward to hearing her. florida first lady casey desantis on "the faulkner focus"
Check
6:11 am
coming up today right after "america's newsroom." >> we've been there since day one. as we said just yesterday he intends for his administration to be there for as long as it takes. >> dana: maui residents day one started weeks too late. the president traveling to the island yesterday where protestors greeted him as well. they are pleading for more support. peter doocy is at the white house with the latest. hi, peter. >> there was a fire in 2004 at the biden house but there is also reason to doubt exactly what the president said last night in maui, which is that the bidens know what it is like to lose a home. >> president biden: i don't want to compare difficulties but we have a little sense, jill and i, what it is like to lose a home. almost lost my wife, my 67
6:12 am
corvette, and my cat. all kidding aside, i watched the firefighters, the way they responded. >> this is not the first time president biden has claimed his house burned down. >> president biden: having had a house burn down with my wife in it. she got out safely. have a significant portion of it burn. ten minutes makes a hell of a difference. it makes a big difference. >> the firefighters who responded were quoted at the time as saying the fire was contained to the kitchen and that it was under control in 20 minutes which is consistent with a less dramatic version of the same story the president has also told. >> president biden: lightning strike hit -- i live on a little pond, a 10-acre pond that borders my property. hit a conduit in the side of the
6:13 am
hill. went up underneath and set on fire the internal part of my house. the air conditioning was just billowing out smoke. >> president biden's current house did once burn down in 1814. the british did it. it is very well documented. that's not what he was talking about in maui. >> dana: the deputy chief of staff under president obama will react to this and other politics as well. >> bill: breaking news get you to atlanta, fulton county georgia. scott hall has just surrendered according to the website for the jail in fulton county in atlanta, georgia. the first person of a dozen and a half to surrender on the latest indictment that involves the former president. no release date listed yet. possibly he is still there and the process continues there. he is the bondsman associated
6:14 am
with the alleged voting machine tampering in a county in georgia called coughy county. part of the indictment alleges they allowed trump's team to come in and look at the software that they were using to tabulate votes there. it was not up for grabs, by the way. this was a county that was easily won by the former president. upwards of 70% of the vote. the county seat is douglas. so scott hall tied to that county is apparently the first person to make an appearance in fulton county. as of last night two former president will be there on thursday. >> dana: there we go. texas is bracing for impact from tropical storm harold. it's expected to bring torrential rain and intense flooding. we'll follow the news live as it happens. >> bill: this is new video from the "new york post" that shows migrants pouring across the
6:15 am
border, a fence or a wall? it's wide open. why the gates you see there are still open now. we'll bring you the story coming up. >> dana: a new poll ranking dallas as america's safest big city. what is their secret? mayor erik johnson is coming right up. >> we don't want to be like new york clearly. we don't want to follow los angeles. another great american city that sadly has been overrun by people experiencing homelessness and shedding corporate headquarters every year to cities like dallas.

6:22 am
a new gallup poll has them rated. all have democratic mayors. dallas is topping the list of america's safest cities. people love dallas. how did he do it? mayor erik johnson joins us now. this is coming at a time. we had paul mauro on yesterday talking about how some of america's greatest treasures, the jewels of these cities are falling apart. yours is different. why? >> well first of all thanks for having me. but gallup poll that just came out, we were happy to see that's how americans view our city. but really, it makes me very proud of our police department. the dallas police department has worked really, really hard to throw the kitchen sink at violent crime. we've worked really closely with the community here in dallas to make sure that our police feel supported throughout this time when a lot of people have talked about defunding the police and
6:23 am
questioning the role that law enforcement plays in making a city great. we've doubled down on law enforcement in dallas and made public safety our top priority for the past four years i've been mayor and it paid off. the poll, while we don't put too much stake in polls, i think the american people are seeing when they come to visit dallas what we who live here know about the city. it's a great city, a safe city and we're working hard to make it safer. >> bill: here is your competition, total crime in democratic run city. atlanta up 3%. chicago up 33. philly 18%. dallas down 1.5%. the dallas crime drop under your term now murders down almost 16% and rape is down 32%. aggravated assaults down 4%. i think you are right about that. i would give you credit, i would give the police their credit. i give the people who live there
6:24 am
credit as well. it takes a community and good, strong leadership. you said your beginning was rocky. what did you learn during that part of your term that helped you out? >> i learned that when it comes to public safety, you have to be willing to tell the hard truths and to do the work that's required to actually push back on the criminal element in your city. the reality is there are people who questioned the value of hot spot policing. the basis of our crime reduction plan. it has shown tremendous results that we've seen. we have crimenologists our study our crime reduction effort and said it is attributeable to the hot spot policing approach we've taken. we dropped crime 11% in the areas of the city where we've implemented hot spot policing. repeat offenders in known high-crime areas and it is working. we're also working on improving the lighting in those areas and
6:25 am
remediating the blight in the areas. the realities are people who don't want to talk about those things, they want to pretend like, you know, we'll solve crime today but addressing other issues that are wrong with society like education system. it's true. we do need to work on the education system and need to improved indication. for someone driving to live in a neighborhood in dallas today and walk home from school without getting shot today or an elderly woman who wants to walk her dog today we have to do things to lower crime right now. we have to go after the bad guys where they are and be honest about repeat offenders and take them off the streets. we've done that. >> bill: you fired some people in the beginning so you needed people who were on your team. >> we needed the chief that we have right now. we needed an experienced chief who took lowering violent crime personally. i said that before we hired him. i want a police chief who takes this as personally as i do every
6:26 am
person in this city who is affected by violent crime. when i took office a 9-year-old girl got shot in her living room while she was playing in the head from a bullet from two guys who were having a fight over some sort of rap feud or something they were having. and i said right then and there not on my watch. we are going to end this type of senseless violence. i want a police chief who takes it personally like i do and we have one edie garcia. he is my partner working together shoulder to shoulder implementing a crime plan focused on things like lighting improvement and blight remediation. we have seen violent crime in dallas drop two years year-over-year in every form of violent crime that's tracked by the f.b.i. the only city in america in the top ten largest cities in the country that has done that. this year crime is down yet again in dallas.
6:27 am
talking three years in a row. >> dana: you have shown people how it can be done. thank you for joining us today and look forward to visiting soon. i have to go to a restaurant, great mexican food. >> bill: i have to go too. >> it is a wonderful town. come visit. >> bill: thank you, mayor. now today more than $100 billion in taxpayer money has been pledged to fund the war in ukraine. where do the republican candidates stand on the biggest foreign policy issue today? it will be a hot topic tomorrow night in milwaukee. accused crypto brook sam bankman freed facing a modified indictment. we're waiting on his fate as we speak. speak. get ready for a shock. the rate on many credit cards is now over 22%.

(bridget) with thyroid eye disease i hid from the camera. and i wanted to hide from the world.

6:33 am
tomorrow night's debate. eight candidates met the criteria to get on the stage. polling and then a donor threshold of 40,000 donors across 20 states, as well as they all signed this pledge to support the eventual nominee. then their polling also was a requirement to get on the debate stage. determinative as to where you stand on the debate stage. you see that there with eight. a nice number there. >> bill: two hours of time we should be able to get everybody in on a lot of issues. go back one more time. right there in the middle with desantis and ramaswamy and pence and haley, they are the ones who, you know, chris christie. making they take fastballs tonight or throw some. >> dana: asa hutcheson was the last to qualify. we'll see them tomorrow night.
6:34 am
>> bill: one issues will be foreign policy and what does the commander-in-chief wants for the united states commitment in ukraine. how will the candidates take on this issue. there are differences in opinions. see how they play out in realtime. this is the state of the war, though. okay? in the counter offensive that lasted for a couple months now, ukraine has taken back a little less than 100 square miles. russia meanwhile still occupies a lot of the area they initially went into. the u.s. pledge at the moment, right? aid ukraine voflgs all humanitarian and military aid, $113 billion and counting with stinger missiles and javelins and helicopters and maybe what you have heard from other european countries f-16s soon. here is our commitment. when we compare the u.s. at $45 billion now in military aid only. germany is here, u.k., poland,
6:35 am
netherlands below $10 billion. the u.s. -- this is our fight in eastern europe. so we wanted to know about a week ago when it comes to this war how do americans feel right now? very difficult for us to get a gauge from the commander-in-chief. he hasn't done an oval office address or prime time address or told the american people what the commitment is all about. they've insinuated it and said it but been no major national address. when it comes to helping ukraine fight against russia what should the u.s. be doing? a bit of a mixed bag. 21% say more. 36% say less. 40% say about the same right now. this is part of our debate tomorrow night in milwaukee and we'll see how it goes. it is foreign policy issue number one as of today, dana. >> dana: not only the foreign policy debate of the moment, tomorrow night, but also on capitol hill. that's coming back as well. we want to talk a little more about this and bring in our panel.
6:36 am
rebecca heinrich senior fellow at the hudson institute. kevin roberts president of the heritage foundation. great to have you both. let me start with you, kevin. make your case on what you think should be done here? >> we certainly want the ukrainians to win. the problem is as bill pointed out and the poll shows, the american people realize that there is no end in sight. the president of the united states has not offered a plan. vast majority of americans either support just what we've done or less. they don't support the upcoming bill. ultimately you can believe that the ukrainians should win, which we do. while also realize the germans and french who like to fag their finger at americans and tell us what to do need to pull more of their own weight. there are a lot of challenges at home including an increasing number of emergencies, obviously from the hawaii fire and probably some hurricanes soon. we have to take care of our interests at home before spending more money on ukraine.
6:37 am
>> dana: rebecca, you are concerned about interest as home but you have a different point of view. make your case here. >> we do have a lot of problems at home. we have to hold the line abroad and why we need to have a strong peace through strength foreign policy and the reagan doctrine. you help the countries defending their own national sovereignty. the united states has an interest in making sure we have stability in europe. as a percentage of gdp the united states is ranked 9th in our contributions to ukraine. the united states is the leader of the free world. i would expect the united states as a matter of dollars would be contributing more. what we need now is to pressure the biden administration to come up with a strategy. help ukraine prevail. don't drip aid. give them weapons the push out the russians, stabilize the region and bolster nato's eastern front so we can deal
6:38 am
with the china threat in the pacific. >> bill: how do you think the cam ander in chief last done. >> a terrible job. i've been shocked you have the hunter biden corruption stuff in ukraine, all the politics surrounding that. commander-in-chief absent. the american people support ukraine because we understand we don't like a bully. want to help the democracy pushing back a shared enemy of the united states in the russian federation. the american people's instincts are right. we need global leadership and an american president who can make the case to the american people. >> dana: this is the overall budget of the defense department is 1.77 trillion. u.s. aid to ukraine is 113.4 billion. those are huge numbers. what is your position at the heritage foundation about the upcoming budget fight we'll have this fall? should the defense department
6:39 am
have more resources to deal with the threats ahead? >> we believe in a strong defense department. we are known as reagan's think-tank. rebecca and i agree on most things. we have a difference of opinion on this. we believe we can adopt reagan's principle of peace through strength by addressing what changed since reagan left office. you and bill know this well. the united states is much weaker economically than it was. it is impossible for us to prosecute military interventions in multiple places around the world. and while indeed our defense department budget is large and the ukrainian aid is a mere percentage of that, we also need to be more fiscally responsible. we need more transparency on the ukraine aid. we need the plan from the president. this is the point. the united states simply cannot afford the level of support that it's giving the ukrainians. the american people are saying that both in your poll as well as in the poll from a competing news outlet that suggests that 55% of americans across the
6:40 am
political spectrum are opposed to this bill. therefore, dana, we're adamantly opposed to the passage of this $24 billion aid package and should not be tied to emergency aid for hurricanes and fires. that's the typical d.c. swamp game playing hostage with the people's money. >> bill: big question. rebecca how do you define victory? >> we want ukrainians to push the russians out and make sure the russians don't gain any territory from february 2022 and make sure the ukrainians have a robust military so it doesn't happen again and the eastern front to succeed again. we want a strong europe. american security for the american people at home is tied to stability in europe. these are dollars well spent. >> bill: kevin, how do you define victory? >> it is for lives, precious lives that are being lost to stop being lost today. we believe in peace and we believe it needs to happen
6:41 am
immediately. >> dana: imagine if president biden came up and gave a speech perhaps we would hear what his plan for victory is. thank you both. we appreciate it. >> dana reads sports. >> dana: u.s. sprinter richardson wins gold in the 100 meter sprint world championships. the 23-year-old finished the race less than 2/10 of a second from joiner's world record. she was suspended from competing in the 2020 olympics for traces of marijuana before the games began. >> bill: i tell you what, dana. mohammad ali lit the flame. it was an awesome american moment. >> dana: congratulations. >> bill: honeymoon is over.
6:42 am

thieves proposals cruel. a few months ago robert kennedy junior said we have a crisis at the border and we need to close the border. dana and bill, back to you. >> dana: good to see you in new york. >> bill: a long way from that, too. congresswoman malliotakis in studio. between the mayor and governor, how will we figure this out? >> the bottom line is we need a new president. the house republicans passed legislation that did exactly what those presidential candidates said they want to do. we have a problem with chuck schumer not willing to take up our bill or any bill. he hasn't passed any bill to deal with immigration or the border at all. so we can reconcile them. the reality is i feel bad for my community because we didn't vote for the mayor or the governor. we didn't vote for this president but subjected to their policy because we're part of new york city. reality the mayor needs to stop misinterpreting the right to shelter loss.

not for citizens of other countries. it is out of control. we can't afford it number one. you are taking away open spaces and taking awas schools which should be schools where we have overcrowded classrooms. taking the spaces away to give them to individuals, by the way, more than half are denied their asylum claims because they aren't a legitimate asylum seeker. so the democrats -- >> bill: here is a solution then. both get on the train and go down to the white house and tell the president this. they rarely stand in front of a microphone to denounce this. >> you are absolutely right. the mayor has yet to say the word secure the border. the governor and schumer have yet to say it. very frustrating for the rest of us who have solutions. we see this problem was manufactured by the president. could be undone today. unfortunately we don't have the political will from the leadership. what i would say is let's pass what the house did. the minimum the mayor should say not anymore.

he asking the federal government for more money for more shelters. i will not support more funding coming to new york city so you can continue this madness. >> dana: this is the floodgates are open. you have a situation with the weather in texas and they opened the floodgates. several of the people will end up here. i wonder about being in washington, d.c. and how strange it must be to not want to solve a problem. here you have president biden who never talks about this. his administration says the border is closed and the border is fine. yet you have the mayors and governors of democratic states saying we're dying under this. you have to help us and they don't want to do anything. it is bizarre to me. >> it is not only bizarre. the fact that they think border security is cruel is outrageous. drug cartels are killing americans. 100,000, over 100,000 americans a year. people being raped, children being raped along this journey. people are dying and drowning and because they are

incentivizing it. drug cartels are making billions of dollars and our mayors only further innocent vice this human trafficking by offering free housing and services while new yorkers are making it hard to support their families. we need a new president. people have to recognize you can't keep voting democrat and keep voting for these people that continue to support these policies and when you say you want to do something about it, it is cruel. what's cruel is allowing it to continue and allowing the citizen taxpayer to hit over the head with a $12 billion just for more than city alone. >> dana: another topic we want to get to. dealing with the fact we found out that david weiss has never going to charge hunter biden until the whistleblowers started to talk. yesterday an attorney for gary shapley. let's listen. >> it is ridiculous on its face.
6:53 am
those are the kind of threats hunter biden's legal team made. last summer he told prosecutors the threat to put joe biden on the stand that charging hunter biden would be a career killer for him and trying what he can to make it be a career killer for our clients as well. >> dana: they want to go after the whistleblowers. >> our ways and means committee is the what let the testimony be made public from the whistleblowers. it made a difference. the judge denied the sweetheart deal that hunter biden received. i think we need to continue to expose what we can. david weiss is not a good choice for special prosecutor considering his associations with the biden family. we're exposing it and getting out in the public and making a difference. that's the important thing. >> bill: amazing twist. biggest issue on staten island. >> crime and migrant situation. we didn't support these policies. we didn't vote for the mayor, governor or president and we shouldn't be subjected to that. >> bill: nice to see you,
