[gunfire] >> screams] rapid gunfire] >> steve: they are running for their lives. meanwhile, president biden is going to address the nation

tonight at 8:00 p.m., after being mia for almost a week after dropping out of the 2024 race. what will he say tonight? >> lawrence: it's about time. the impact being felt here and across the world. piers morgan joins us. >> ainsley: that's right. the second hour of "fox & friends" starts right now. and, remember, mornings are better with friends. ♪ >> brian: fox news alert. newly released body cam video just talking about this. showing the moments immediately after the assassination attempt on former president donald trump. >> ainsley: new footage raising even more questions as the fbi director christopher wray is set to testify on capitol hill in just a few hours from now. >> lawrence: cb cotton joins us from the site of the shooting in butler, pennsylvania. cb? >> hi, lawrence. well this body camera video shows the moments right after gunman thomas crooks was killed. we have been told that he was identified as suspicious by local law enforcement before the shooting. but now this body camera video

appears to confirm that crooks was identified as suspicious to at least some secret service agents. watch. >> yes. beaver county sniper team sent the pictures out. this is him. >> okay. >> that's the sniper that sent the original pictures and seen him come on the bike. sat the bike back down and lost sight of him. he sent the pictures out. i don't know if you got the same ones i did. >> yeah. goes his glasses on. >> you got that. >> yeah, i got that. >> this is his bike with the stuff. our sniper seen him walking away from that, i believe. >> okay. >> he would be right inside that window. set one that physically seen, this sent the pictures and called it out. >> okay. >> and now, another new video from an eyewitn eyewitness, scrg after spotting crooks and assault rifle and then you will hear what sounds like multiple shots. >> he's up here! he's on top of the roof.

[gunfire] screams. [rapid gunfire] >> get over here! >> run! screaming [bleep] [bleep] >> and this chilling photo from the eyewitness video shows the moment before thomas crooks is killed. he turns and points his ar-15 style rifle towards people who are hiding. fox digital asked the shooter's father if there were any missed warning signs. >> we will release a statement when our legal counsel advises us to do so. until then we have no comment. we just want to try to take care of ourselves right now, so, please, give us our space. >> ronald roe has been named the

new acting director of the secret service after kimberly cheatle faced intense scrutiny for the apparent security lapses during the july 13th rally. back to you. >> all right. c.b., thank you very much. >> one of the guys with the video, this guy is john malice, he said i can't believe how light security was when he was there the other thing you hear in the video is why is he climbing on the roof? why is he standing there? some said well, he was going up on the roof because he wanted a better view. and then they realized no, they were looking -- taking pictures, they were suspecting of him. saw the guy with the red ty, secret service or someone hired by secret service. this is the guy we are taking pictures of. now, next to the body were four magazines. and we know the phone could have detonated an explosion in the car. do you realize how much worse this could have gotten had they not had the second sniper team take him out through the trees? >> ainsley: fox digital was there in the parking lot when the parents were grocery shopping and putting their groceries in the car. they reportedly called police

hours before the shooting saying that their son was missing. they had been cooperating with the fbi and they clearly have a lawyer because they said as soon as our lawyer -- our counsel tells us that we can release information we will or we will have a meant. >> steve: chuck grassley released that video, it's hard to see the shooter but he is lying behind the officer. because we have fuzzed out his image but you can see a trail of blood. but the second patch of video, keeping in mind, after the shooting, all we saw was donald trump go down, and then we saw the people in the background relatively, you know, just kind of standing there, in shock. they didn't really move. but the second batch of video where you see the people throughout the fairgrounds, that stuff right there, that is so different than what we have seen before, because those people. >> lawrence: were closest to the shooter. >> steve: running for their lives. look at them over screen right, and you can see the flags in the background, and there is the shooter right up there.

>> brian: never went through the metal detectors because they are outside the perimeter. >> lawrence: bring in former d.c. homicide detective ted williams. is he outside of butler, pennsylvania. i'm curious you used to be a local cop, detective, washington, d.c., what are the local cops telling you because there was an attempt, before the backlash, from the secret service to throw them under the bus and say that it was their fault because it was their job to guard the perimeter. what are you learning? >> yeah. good morning, let me just say i'm honored to be on, what i define as fabulous four under unfortunate circumstances. >> ainsley: thank you. >> one of the things we must keep in mind is that someone did, in fact, die as a result of this keystone cop operation, which makes it just more upsetting. and i can tell you most of the cops here in butler,

pennsylvania, they are very solid, i got to tell you all. but, the citizens are talking. and they are giving a great deal of information. we interviewed several citizens who said the night before at the rally, that there was lax security, that they could get up very close, somebody needs to answer for this above and beyond the director who is now resigned. heads must roll. >> steve: some of this video was released by chuck grassley, the senator from the great state of iowa, ted. and he also apparently got his hand on some of the information that was circulating amongst law enforcement, and there's the shot right there with the shooter down. we fuzzed out his body. apparently, chuck grassley is asking for details about that day. because he wants to know

apparently on the list of law enforcement, there was a drone operator, who is going to be working for law enforcement, and he wants to know from the federal government, was there a drone? was it up? why wasn't it up? because the shooter had a drone and flew over the site earlier. >> you know, guy, i need you all to picture something here. an hour before this rally, they were on to this guy. they had a picture of this guy. they knew who thomas crooks was. and the question that america should be asking is we all should be asking is how in the hell would they have let the president of the united states take the stage. >> lawrence: so true. >> knowing full well they had this kind of information. >> brian: do you know why? they had no communication. they were not in communication with the officers that were with the president. >> you know, you are absolutely

correct about that. and we had someone from the pennsylvania state police to testify yesterday that there were two individuals who were overlooking the roof where this killer was on. and that they left their post, to go looking for this killer somebody needs to be able to respond to what took place christopher wray as you all know is appearing a day before the judiciary committee i can tell you do not expect any bombshells to come from his testimony today. i don't expect him to give up very much. but, somebody, america deserve answers. a man died. and a president, the 45th president of the united states could be dead today as a result of the inaction, the keystone cop operation that took place. >> brian: ted, remember, he was on three encrypted platforms on

three separate countries, so this guy could either be a la lonerwas he contacted in gerd belgium right of will the shooting? >> ainsley: how did they lose him? they had a picture. standing up there on the roof looking at the guy who is dead oh yeah that's the guy in this picture. how did they lose him? they clearly had pictures of him on the bike. they knew he was on the premises. thank you so much, ted. >> steve: didn't know he had a gun on the roof. >> brian: i saw one report that they got off the roof because it was too hot. >> lawrence: that's unacceptable. >> lawrence: you don't leave your post. again all the fly e. lies that were told about the sloped roof. the communication, the timeline was off. all of that is coming out right now. >> ainsley: the director not visiting the site. >> lawrence: why are we learning more from citizens that were there than we are from law enforcement. >> brian: they are not giving press conferences. they should be giving press conferences every day.

>> steve: see if the director is able to shed more light. >> lawrence: we can't forget. this the secret service are now saying that the former president cannot do outdoor rallies anymore because of this. so, you guys suck at your job. i'm not talking about rank and file. i'm talking about the leadership. and you guys are diverting the money to other programs and not going toward your duty which is just to protect the president and all the rest of the principles, now he can't do outdoor rallies. >> brian: that hurts trump more than anybody else because nobody else is getting more than 3,000. >> lawrence: that's like telling "fox & friends" you can't do diners. that's art path the show. you are saying no longer we can do it. it's the same thing for the president of the united states. >> steve: for the trump campaign it costs more to do indoor arena kind of thing than just out in a fairgrounds. so more on this throughout the day. in the meantime tonight, 13 hours from right now, president biden will finally address the nation after days of silence following his decision to drop out of the race. oh, look, he is on the big steps

today. -- yesterday. >> ainsley: jacqui heinrich joins us now with the latest. >> jacqui: good morning, guys. the president says he would explain his decision to the american people when he addresses the nation from the oval office tonight. that's a setting that is usually reserved for somber moments or emergencies. the president just gave his third oval address about 10 days ago after the assassination attempt on former president trump. biden was calling at that point to turn down the divisive rhetoric in the country looks like this speech tonight is going to be less of a rallying cry to get behind kamala harris. heart-to-heart with the country after the president's longest allies told him that his 54 years in public service needed to come to an end. >> don' joe feel betrayed by anf that or does he understand it's for the country, also? >> we will hear from him directly and he will address what son his heart. like you said he has a big heart. he understands where penal are. he understands being -- having done this 36 years as a senator,

8 years as vice president and now almost four years as president, he gets it. he gets where we are as a country. >> jacqui: we expect the president to explain how he will spend his final days in office lame duck president. expect foreign policy goals. kamala harris will clean house in his cabinet if she wins in november. >> tried to bring peace to the middle east. ending the war in gaza. putting that region a better trajectory. continuing to deal as effectively has he has been with the ongoing aggression by russia against ukraine. >> jacqui: harris campaign is optimistic after record setting donations and drawing a crowd so large yesterday they needed a new venue. jen o'malley dillon says harris has advantage with key voting blocks, several of them. quote: the race is more fluid now. expandable universe of winnable voters accessible to vice president harris. they have been supportive of democrats in the past and many are supportive of democrats down

ballot. now this video is all we have seen of the president since he emerged from six days of isolation with covid. saying that he feels well but ignoring a question on whether harris can beat trump in his belief. clearly though, guys, his colleagues in his party think that she can. back to you. >> steve: hey, jacqui, real quick. have you heard any rumblings there at the white house or from your other sources about how is he going to explain why he is stepping aside? is he going to say, look, i'm not in good health or i'm losing a step. or now i'm that bridge to the next generation again? >> jacqui: i think he will explain why i decided to no longer be a bridge. he kind of has to. >> steve: right. >> jacqui: he said initially in 2020 he intended to be a bridge. and then during that press conference a few weeks ago he was trying to resurrect his flailing campaign he said it wasn't the time for a bridge. his wisdom and many years in office gave him the perspective

that he needed to get the job done. he didn't think that other people had those qualifications. he turned around from that. after a lot of pressure. and so, i think is he going to have to address that piece. he will probably speak to sort of the feeling within the party and within the base that they want to move on and look forward but nothing on the horizon about any health issue. of course, we are all listening for that but the age concern really was the driver of all of this. so, we will see what he says, guys. >> steve: i wonder if he is going to mention all the top democrats in d.c. stabbed me in the back so i'm going to say goodbye to reelection. >> ainsley: i don't think he will probably be doing that. >> steve: probably not. >> lawrence: thanks, jacqui. >> steve: check in special conch tonight at 8:00 p.m. >> lawrence: i don't like the fact that all sudden the mood had changed. i thought the press had finally gotten it. hold the white house accountable. they had been lying to us. all of the sudden i have been watching all the channels, feel sorry for joe biden.

excuse me, have you guys forgotten that we have been lied to for over a year now about the condition of the. >> ainsley: wipe the blood off the knife. >> lawrence: unbelievable. i don't feel sorry for them at all. they have been ly lie to us the entire time. the poll numbers change. they want to switch the candidates out. he still gets to stay in office. and we're still suffering as a country from the border, economic policies, international policies, all -- killing us all and we got to feel sorry for him. >> brian: black lives matter weighed in. why would we care about that organization that doesn't know what they did all the money they have gotten, can't hold a ceo accountable. here's what their statement said relatively intriguing, says we called for the rules committee, i guess the democratic rules committee to create a process that allows for public participation in the nomination process. not justs nomination for party delegates. the current political landscape sun precedented with president biden stepping ainside a matter never seen before. calls for decisive action to protect the integrity over the

democracy black voters. we do not live in a dictatorship. delegates are not oligarchs. okay, you get it. so, here's the thing. you never had a choice the first time. he got 1 million votes because you told people that wanted to run against him you better not. the party bosses said r.f.k. if you want to run you are not going to get on the new hampshire primary. we are the going to move the new hampshire primary not good for our candidate hand picked and want to keep notifies. they cleared the field. so forth 14 million people that voted for joe biden that, was a phony vote anyway, because you had no choice. dean phillips was not a legitimate threat, and r.f.k. had to leave the party. so the bigger question is, why -- what happened since hillary won against obama, the democrats are scared to death to let the democratic voters, the primary voters pick a candidate. they refused to let it happen. they want to be the ones. >> ainsley: blm says it's a blatant disregard for democratic principles and unacceptable. we need public participation.

>> steve: the "new york times" and barack obama both said when joe announced that he was going to step aside with the re-election, this needs to be an open process. so everybody can see. you know, sunlight is a great disinfect tant, essentially. but, it's not. it is a coronation. kamala harris is going to wind up getting it. yesterday, the dnc, they had a meeting. and they talked about the rules. setting the schedule to formalize the nomination. so here's the rule. the delegate -- the candidates must meet the requirement of having a majority of delegates by july 30th, and if she is unchallenged, voting will start virtually the next day. and the dnc is going to vote on today. nonetheless, people are going hey, wait a minute, i thought we were going to see a pro-he is is. why aren't they challenging her with other people in the party? that's what bret stephens, who used to be at the "wall street journal," four with the "new york times," has this quote: he said the whole point of competitive process, even a truncated one is to discover

unsuspected strengths, which is how harris inflamed out as a candidate the last time. >> lawrence: 100 percent. if there is evidence that there she is a better candidate now than she was then she should be given a chance to prove it. in other words, there should be a race, essentially with other democrats. >> brian: too late. the horse is out of the barn, the cat is out of the barn. everything is out of the barn. >> steve: the cat or the cow? >> brian: both cat and cows and horses. >> steve: holy cow that barn is empty. >> ainsley: infuriating. >> lawrence: people are looking at this whole thing with kamala harris all wrong. they think she is automatically going to get the support of black voters. i mean, we just put the poll up, her favorability amongst black voters only at 60%. that's 40% that is wide open for someone else. the base of the democratic party is black voters. >> brian: no one stopped governor beshear or mark kelly from stepping up. to the democrats 7 point.

if they had stepped out, i think to a degree obama and schumer and pelosi are surprised that the vice president emerged they are not fans. raskin, pelosi, and schumer don't seem to be fans. >> lawrence: no. >> steve: ultimately, she, kamala harris, brilliantly as soon as she said i'm out. she got on the phone and started to work the phones, got all the senators and governors to sign on with her. that is why she short circuited the process. >> ainsley: she had the money. >> lawrence: not just the money, the pressure campaign saying that it had to be her. if did you go against her there would be problems with the base. i think the pressure campaign worked. >> steve: it did. >> ainsley: i can't believe after looking at all of her policies and looking at her record around we had marc thiessen more radical with voting record than bernie sanders as a senator. >> carley: i can't believe this is the candidate. >> brian: after the sugar high

goes down. >> ainsley: honeymoon is over. >> brian: honeymoon is over, see where it stands. this is the moment lawrence introduces next topic. >> lawrence: fox news alert. benjamin netanyahu will address congress today. vice president kamala harris will not be there. >> steve: this all comes as hundreds of anti-israel protesters are expected to invade capitol hill after at least 200 were arrested yesterday. and that's why they have got a big fence. >> ainsley: kamala harris said they show exactly what the human emotion should be when she was talking about the anti-israel protesters. >> brian: lucas tomlinson will be dispassionate when he tells tnews and tell us what is going on on capitol hill today, lucas? >> lucas: good morning, brian. the secret service in charge of benjamin's netanyahu visit to washington. d.c. police is still hundreds of cops short stemming back to the blm protest. that's one of the reasons why over 200 nypd, new york police have been deputized and will be

providing security here for the prime minister's visit. of course, the longest serving israeli prime minister in history and benjamin nets coming here to speak to congress for the fourth time. that's the most of any world leader in u.s. history. outpacing winston churchill. as you can see behind me all is quiet right now. we are waiting for it to get a lot more noisy when hundreds of protesters descend here in front of the capitol. some black fencing erected. we did ground reconnaissance before this hit. we will go over for the next one. black fencing surrounding the capitol. different story at the cannon house office building where hundreds of protesters descended. protests are illegal inside congressional office buildings. hundreds of those protesters were arrested. now the most notable absence today of the prime minister's speech, vice president kamala harris. she would be -- had been sitting right behind the prime minister next to house speaker mike johnson. she will be addressing a sorority in indiana instead today. and at least 18 house democrats

and nine senate democrats are also expected to skip netanyahu's address do congress. senate president pro tem patty murray, dick durbin the second highest ranking senator as well and party leaders jim clyburn and squad members as well. mark kelly is on the short list to be on kamala harris' short list running mate is expected to be present. donald trump posting the following to truth social. during my first term peace and stability in the region. signing the historic abraham accords we will have it again. millions are dying and kamala harris is in no way capable of strong it. the vice president and president biden are expected to meet the prime minister later this week and former president donald trump will be meeting prime minister netanyahu at his mar-a-lago estate on friday, guys. >> steve: all right, lucas, thanks for the life report from the mall. >> brian: good they are burying the hatchet a little bit. former president was kind of mad at the prime minister. so it looks like they are burying the hatchet. >> lawrence: vice president kamala harris wants to put her record against former president trump's which includes comparing ice agencies to members of the

mean delicious, dose of trolling donald trump and the republicans. >> she understands what her message is. she understands message discipline, and she is -- she is an extraordinary candidate on the trail. >> free at last, free at last. kamala harris is unleashed. she is just brilliant. the energy that is coming off of her is an energy that coming off the american people, look, i mean, this is 2008 vibes already. >> the media praising vice president harris after a speech in milwaukee. she had 3,000 people there where she challenged voters to compare her record to former president donald trump's. tracy interesting. let's dive in her record as we know it right now. when she was vice president and when she was attorney general. first off isaac espinosa a cop killed by this man. everyone was calling for the death penalty. she refused to do it. also the conviction rate, not going to please many in the minority community, went from 52% to 67% that was better for

some and not good for others. she supported medicare for all. never backed off of that who does that sound like the entire squad and this guy named bernie sanders someone who says i'm proud to be a socialist. definition of the border. she says i'm not going to look at the border. i'm only going to go there once. it's going to be sanitized. i'm going to worry about the root causes of the masses of immigration, she found those triangle countries, she brought in some private equity. excuse me some private ownership and some investment, for the most part all we got was thousands of thousands of illegal immigrants, in terms of results, i think president trump cannot wait to challenge her. but that is just one element of it. remember, what she said about the border invasion. she also said this about ice. >> the clan was what we would call today a domestic terrorist group. >> why would we call them a domestic terrorist group. >> because they tried to use

fear and force to change political environment. >> what was the motivation for the use of fear and force. >> it was based on fear and ethnicity. >> right. are you aware of the per sense of many about how the power and the discretion at ice is being used to enforce the laws and do you see any parallels? >> i do not see a parallel between what is constitutionally mandated as it relates to enforcing the law. >> brian: here to react is fox news contributor charlie hurt. charlie, people focused on the energy that she brings compared to joe biden. she also brings this record. >> possibly think maybe she has learned to clean up her act a little bit after she hasn't been tested in that way. i think it's very interesting that she is going to try to run as some sort of law and order candidate against the felon, the convicted felon.

when most people when they think of law and order around them and look at the stories, the real stories of all of the illegal aliens that she allowed into the country, willfully allowed into the country as a policy, who have committed horrible, heinous crimes against american citizens, he just -- i don't see how she wins the law and order fight or really any of these other issues. if this campaign becomes about issues, she loses. and that's why they are so desperate to make this campaign about donald trump. because that's the only way that they -- because the record is indefensible. >> brian: what have you picked up from her earlier speeches what have you picked up in terms of themes. >> you look at the car crash of her record then she gives a speech yesterday in wisconsin saying she is going to end childhood poverty and make healthcare affordable for all

americans? you know they took a bite out of that apple. first of all fighting poverty forever and their record on that is absolutely abysmal. speciespecially in the last four years when you look at the punishing inflation and other things that have hurt everybody's bottom line. but especially people who are on the lower end of the income. in terms of it healthcare, excuse me, ma'am, have you ever heard of obamacare? you fixed healthcare for us and it's not working. obviously it works very well for certain people, but for the large majority of people, it's not working then another brilliant platform take away private health insurance? as punishing as that is. aftermath of obamacare, it's no good for people. >> brian: yeah, she said that in the beginning when she was a candidate. and it inflamed out. she has got to either walk it back or embrace it. charlie hurt, thanks so much. it's going to be very interesting. >> oh, man, buckle up. >> brian: i know, the trump call quickly got on a conference call

on fox nation. >> can i say how exciting it is to be promoted to the one-on-one with you, ainsley. because i have been removed from kilmeade on the mass sofa. >> ainsley: i requested you. i requested you this time. great to see you. >> as you. >> ainsley: what is happening here all this chaos. the president withdrawing from the race. how is it being perceived around the look? >> look, back in the u.k. for example, we have had five prime ministers in four years. we thought we were the most politically dysfunctional country infantry in the world until you guys came along. it seems completely extraordinary to everyone around the world watching america this great super power now appears to have two current presidents. you have the incumbent president, joe biden, he said in a statement a few days ago he is not able to even finish a four months of a campaign to get re-election. and so his vice president is now being upped to the apparent nominee. getting all the money, the donors, the celebrity backing and so on and so on. there was who is running the country? who is commander-in-chief?

who has got their finger on the nuclear bomb? personally and not to be disrespectful. given the state of joe biden right now. i wouldn't trust him to open my bag of chips let alone press a nuclear button if that had to happen. i think there is a bafflement that joe biden has not actually resigned the presidency. all very well to say i'm not going to seek re-election. i'm four months away and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. what message does this send to america's enemies around the world. what are iran thinking and china and russia thinking? >> ainsley: what are they thinking? >> what a moment for america look how weak it is. this guy stumbling on as president. i think it's going to be very bad for him and for kamala harris. because, she is going to be out there trying to present herself as the vision for the future for the democrat party. but, at the same time, every time joe biden makes any kind of speech or makes another one of his big gaffes on the stage or falls over or whatever, he remains the president of the united states and the leader of the democrat party.

i think on every level, none of this really works. so, we'll see what happens. if i was joe biden tonight, with his speech, i would actually resign the presidency, i think it's the right thing to do. >> ainsley: then kamala becomes incumbent. they can tra prance her out thee and make her look like the hero and queen. >> politically a good move for them as well. i'm not denying that at all. >> ainsley: i don't think he will do that i think his agreement was he will stay on. >> right thing if he really believes what he says in america and what's good for the country and everything else, then he would resign the presidency. it is completely farcical that he is continuing to stumble on as the leader of the free world. the commander-in-chief of the united states, nobody thinks is he that person. everybody thinks that he has quit because he is simply not up to the job anymore. he knows that i don't think is he going to do what i suggest, but i think it would be the right thing to do. >> ainsley: conservatives feel he has been that way for a long time. we don't know who has been running the country the last few

years. >> i have been writing columns for the "new york post" saying this man is not fit or cognitively fit for the office. the answer is there is a complete conspiracy of delusion and deceit by the mainstream media in america to include thee american people about the reality. the moment they-thousand-dollar he would lose, what did they do? turn on him. now they have all got behind kamala harris who they spent most of the last three years poisoning behind the scenes. it's a joke. >> ainsley: thank you, piers, for coming on. >> lovely to see you. >> ainsley: good to see you from this side of the pond. protected to be protected from the kilmeade sofa. i feel i have been promoted so thank you. >> ainsley: he is actually the a team. i'm the b team. so sorry for that. >> even he wouldn't think he is the a team. you are the a team. the rest bask in your glory. >> ainsley: you are the best. hillary clinton suggests she paved the way for clarifies to top the ticket for democrats. how she figures that, next.

[cheers and applause] >> i will ask you to do it in french. >> french? >> janice: just kidding. you did wonderful. thank you for being here. >> thank you, it was amazing. >> janice: amazing. [steve speaking french] >> all right. good luck to you. switching gears. one of the far left leaders kamala harris making it clear she will take any of joe biden's progressive policies even further and it could be expensive. according to axios this morning. her plans include pushing for nearly $2 trillion for universal pre-k and elder care programs. and she wants to raise taxes on the very people creating the jobs. this comes to us from axios and the co-founder there jim have and da high joins us now from the d.c. area. good morning to you. the stuff joe biden couldn't finish she wants to finish. a laundry list of things provens love. >> yeah, i think it's safe to

say i think it's safe to say more liberal than joe biden is. instinctively. within the modern democratic party he would consider himself a centrist particularly when you think about managing things overseas. she is from california. as a senator, certainly took more liberal positions on things like medicare for all and some government spending programs. i think what she will say on the campaign trail is listen we have a lot of work to do to finish the biden-harris agenda that is true, overseas very much in line with him on ukraine and putin and russia. certainly, i think, has more hostility to israel, i think instinctively than joe biden. we i don't know that in practice the policy would be that much different. and then she will come into her own like we really don't know. it's the first time she has been a presidential nominee where she has gotten an entire party to think of. she is calculating how do you win this race? at the end of the day she has to win michigan, pennsylvania and wisconsin.

she is going to put probably a white male, moderate, potentially from one of those three states on the ticket. because she realizes that to win this election she has got to win over persuadable voters. but, i think it's fair game to start to dissect her record in the past and try to figure out what that looks like in the future. speaking of veepstakes is there a frontrunner you have heard of. >> frontrunner very much the names have you heard about. governor shapiro in pennsylvania. mark kelly in arizona. again, i think it's going to be moderate. i think it's going to be someone sends a decent signal to the business community. thinking about electability. thinking about what does it take to beat trump. i think that, listen, coming out of the convention, i think it's safe to assume you are going to get a bump, most candidates do. they are going to have a hell of a lot of celebrities there. there is going to be a lot of media attention. donors are going to fawn and swoon and give a lot of money. coming out of the convention you will have a very tight 50/50 race. this remains a 50/50 country. anyone a siewms trump is going

to run away with it i don't think it you are paying attention on the ground seven states that matter. decent position but no way a decisive position. >> steve: jim, hillary clinton is back. she is in the "new york times" today and she said among other things regarding kamala harris. while it still pains me that i couldn't break that highest, hardest glass ceiling, i'm proud that my two presidential campaigns made it seem normal to have a woman at the top of the ticket. why is she inserting herself in that today? >> because i think that's what politicians and former politicians tend to do. >> steve: right. >> they want to have a voice in the fight. she did run unsuccessfully for presidency. probably right, right? she was the first female to have the type of success that she has had at the presidential level. so in some ways it did pave the way for vice president harris to be able to make this run and win the nomination. i don't think hillary clinton is going to have much of a say in the outcome of this because at the end of the day, it's going to be black men, hispanics, and young people who are the persuadable ones. those are the ones got to get. >> steve: all right. jim, thank you very much for

dropping by. >> take care. >> steve: check it all out at axios.com. >> thank you. >> steve: what's the latest on crowdstrike. >> carley: delta will be cooperating with a new federal investigation, steve, into the airline, nearly a week after crowdstrike's global outage caused airports, banks and other businesses to go off line. crowdstrike says a bug in their safety mechanism caused flawed data to go out in a botched update. so far today, more than 40 delta flights have still been canceled and nearly 200 are delayed. and did you see this? in wyoming, a guiser at yellowstone national park exploded. seconding tourists running for the hills. the explosion happened at the park's biscuit basin two miles away from old faithful. the temporarily shut down the area as officials are still assessing the damage. thankfully, no one was hurt. imagine being a tourist and seeing that, steve. >> steve: the thing is that's hot water. >> carley: you got to run real

fast. >> steve: indeed. thank you very much, carley. >> carley: you are welcome. >> steve: coming up in the final hour of "fox & friends," senator marco rubio and dana perino, stick around, folks. ♪ copd hasn't been pretty. it's tough to breathe and tough to keep wondering if this is as good as it gets. but trelegy has shown me that there's still beauty and breath to be had. because with three medicines in one inhaler, trelegy keeps my airways open and prevents future flare-ups. and with one dose a day, trelegy improves lung function so i can breathe more freely all day and night. trelegy won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. tell your doctor if you have a heart condition or high blood pressure before taking it. do not take trelegy more than prescribed. trelegy may increase your risk of thrush, pneumonia, and osteoporosis. call your doctor if worsened breathing, chest pain, mouth or tongue swelling, problems urinating, vision changes, or eye pain occur. ♪ what a wonderful world ♪
