anger, mourning, demand for action after the bodies of six hostages held by hamas terrorists were discovered in gaza over the weekend. deaths setting off a massive workers strike and protest across israel. demonstrators calling on prime minister netanyahu to end the fighting and bring the rest of those held in captivity home. it has been more than 300 days since hamas's brutal october 7th attack. 101 innocent civilians are still in their grasp. this is a brand-new hour of fox news live. i'm kevin cork. >> julie: i'm julie banderas. israeli military said the hostages were shot shortly before soldiers reached them saturday. they were moments before being freed when this happened. among those killed 23-year-old israeli-american citizen hersh goldberg-polis. he was taken at gun point from the nova musical festival more than ten months ago. thousands gathered in jerusalem

to pay their respects. >> kevin: president biden and vice president harris talking with u.s. hostage deal negotiators in the white house situation room today. the president speaking to reporters ahead of that meeting. >> are you planning to present a final hostage deal to both sides this week? >> president biden: we're very close to that. >> do you think it's time for prime minister netanyahu to do more on this issue? do you think he is doing enough? >> president biden: no. >> julie: fox team coverage for you this morning. trey yengst in tel aviv, israel. first the griff jenkins live from the white house. >> things are fluid at the white house. marine is posted outside the oval office indicating he is either in or nearby. we're waiting for official guidance from the white house about that high stakes meeting inside the situation room whether it's continuing or whether it has ended. we have also seen in recent

moments here in the last half hour vice president harris, expected to be part of that meeting, has departed. we saw her boarding air force two joint base andrews just a little while ago talking on her phone. now this comes after biden touched down a little before 9:30. here is a little more of what he had to say to reporters. >> what makes you think that this deal will be successful in a way the other deals were not? >> president biden: hope springs eternal. >> do you have a message for the hostages families, sir? >> president biden: i have spoken to the american hostage mom and dad. we aren't giving up. >> julie, this comes after itsly prime minister netanyahu said yesterday whoever kills hostages does not want to negotiate. biden was asked sunday if he has spoken with with netanyahu he said there are talks. no, sir specifically saying whether he had spoken directly with him. now worth noting biden has kept

a low profile lately. last year at the white house on august 19th. since then vacationing in southern california and delaware. meanwhile vice president harris released a statement yesterday saying this. i strongly condemn hamas's continued brutality and so me us the entire world. as vice president i have no higher priority than the safety of american citizens wherever they are in the world. now harris is on a flight now headed to detroit for a campaign stop. we'll see if she has anything more to say about this when she lands in michigan. meanwhile we're still waiting any moment for an update on that situation room meeting. julie. >> julie: thank you. >> kevin: now for the latest on the ground in israel we are joined once by trey yengst in tel aviv. trey, good morning. >> good morning. as we continue to follow this story, we are gathering those images today out of jerusalem

where hersh goldberg-polis, a 23-year-old american citizen, was buried and his family eulogized him talking about the young man who was dragged into gaza on october 7th and ultimately massacred by the group. according to the israeli health ministry. i want you to take a listen to what his mother had to say, a heartbreaking set of words as she tried to remember the little boy that she raised. >> finally my sweet boy, finally, finally, finally, finally is free. i will love you and i will miss you every single day for the rest of my life. i know you are right here. i just have to teach myself how to feel you in a different way. and hersh, one last thing i need you to do for us. now i need you to help us stay strong. and i need you to help us

survive. >> may mother's words have echoed across this city, country and world. there are still people in the streets of tel aviv, israel's second largest city calling for a deal. demonstrations erupted overnight in israel after the health ministry made the announcement. thousands of people running the main highway. clashes unfolded between police and protestors with security forces being horses and water cannons to clear the word. demonstrators demanding the government reach a hostage agreement to bring the remaining captives home. this father, whose son is still being held by hamas. listen. >> we need an immediate agreement and bring back the hostages. otherwise we will get them in black body bags. >> the unrest about the hostages shifted to civil protests with a broad general strike announced today. the international airport was on

strike this morning for two hours. other transportation affected as well including jerusalem's light rail train. with frustration growing about the lack of deal you heard about the meeting at the white house today. official eaves in washington looking for a way to move the cease-fire talks forward giving both israel and hamas and exit ramp to end the war. it comes as the northern front remains active as well. more rocket fire into northern israel earlier today launched by hezb hezbollah. 332 days into this conflict there is still no diplomatic end in sight. >> kevin: stay safe, my friend. thank you for joining us this labor day. we'll talk to you again real soon. >> julie: victoria, former deputy national security advisor under president trump and from the heritage foundation joins me now. thank you for talking to us,

victorious. an atrocity. hundreds of day into the battle and no peace deal where the hostages were freed. they were so close to being released and they were so close to being freed. what does the president need to do today in the situation room to come up with some sort of policy they can present to israel to finally put this to an end? >> well julie, thank you for having me on. this is obviously heartbreaking for everyone. i had the honor of meeting the goldbergs in israel this summer and talking to that. you have to sympathize with this impossible predicament. it is not benjamin netanyahu holding up the deal. it is sinwar and hamas. if they wanted a deal those hostages would have been better

alive than dead. they executed an american citizen and didn't hesitate. a foreign terrorist organization has murdered an american. i think the message has to change. the message has to be you have killed an american and if you do not release all of the hostages without conditions immediately, the enormous fire power of the united states has in the region will be deployed against you. that has to be the very strong message that goes to hamas. >> julie: wall street editorial board has this headline. i want to put it on the screen for everyone. strong words. hamas executes six hostages including an american. it murdered them in rafah where biden and harris delayed israel's entry with threats and by withholding weapons. quote, israel is offering unprecedented strategic concessions and risking soldiers' lives to free hostages. u.s. pressure should be on hamas, which took the hostages

and murders them. are you suggesting that the united states should now get involved? that has been something that has been extremely controversial. that the united states should not be involved. israel cannot seem to wipe hamas off the map. hamas needs to be wiped off the map. what is it going to take and is it worth the united states finally stepping in? >> well, i think israel actually is pretty close to wiping hamas off the map. they have made tremendous progress and the problem is that if you kill an american citizen and the response is a verbal condemnation from the president and the vice president, unfortunately that just puts a price on the head of every american. yes, i think we do need to take a very strong action. i'm not saying we should put american boots on the ground but something like the targeted elimination of soleimani which worked in 2020 against the iranians. there is something very short of going to war but that will send that message to hamas that this is over. this is done.

wrap it up and free the hostages. >> julie: maybe not send the message about the gaza civilians caught in the crossfire. it is not the israelis' military's fault these civilians are being murdered. it is hamas's fault. they are the terrorists and a war on terror, unfor the fortunately civil against get caught in the crosshairs and the president and vice president need to show the pro-palestinian protests is championing terrorism at the hands of americans. thank you so much for talking to us. we do appreciate you coming on today especially on labor day. thank you. >> thank you. >> a unique situation where we have two candidates who have served at the highest offices in the land. president trump four years as president, kamala harris now almost four years as vice president working alongside president biden. so this will be an opportunity for voters to look at and

compare and contrast those records. >> kevin: we are are approaching the first debate between trump and harris, two candidates getting ready and they are heading out on the campaign trail getting prepped. are you ready? we have that story plus new details how one colorado city is working to combat suspected migrant gangs taking over apartments. these are pictures from aurora just outside denver. more on that coming right up. lie when our skin touches wool... you see why we need downy free and gentle with no perfumes or dyes. it not only makes your clothes softer, it is gentle on your skin. it breathes life into your laundry.

democrats believe coming here on labor day is a must-do situation. a huge labor day parade here in pittsburgh today. both will not be at the labor day parade but here after that. they'll speak to members of ibew local five electrical workers. the president no stranger to unions. he has been speaking to them since the early 1970s. she is much newer to the union world trying to court them. the teamsters president not asked to speak at the dnq was asked yesterday in harris's endorsement is in the bag. typically the teamsters endorse democrats but he said it is not yet. >> would you are being snubbed at the democratic convention weigh on you personally? >> i wasn't -- i don't take it personally. look, i said before i had many opportunities to speak about this. it's their loss. if they don't think that they need to teamsters unnone not an

attack on me but a insult to the 1.3 million workers they actually work for. >> any meetings scheduled with kamala harris? >> the friday before democratic convention they reached out to our union folks and said that they were willing to meet. as of today we don't have a date. >> still waiting for the meeting to take place. harris cannot risk losing the teamsters. here the focus is on the international brotherhood of electrical workers today. that kicks off later this afternoon with the president and vice president and you can bet you will see v.p. harris back here several more times before november over the next few months. julie. >> julie: i think you bet correctly. >> kevin: more on this. we welcome matt, the principal of the vogel group and fred

founder of hicks evaluation group. gentleman, thank you. i think sometimes in the media we remember how people view others. we remember when they were saying that the vice president was incredibly unpopular. we remember when they were saying joe biden was struggling in the polls. but sometimes i think us remembering and talking about it doesn't always mean that they can't get the job done when pressed upon. i want the share with tulsi gabbard had to say about underestimating the vice president. listen to this. >> i think kamala harris has a lot of experience. she have is not to be underestimated. if i can be helpful to president trump in any way it really is just in sharing experience i had with her on that debate stage in 2020. kamala harris has already shown she is trying to move away from her record, move away from her positions and how that contradicts the positions and statements that she is making now that she is the democratic nominee.

>> kevin: i think it would be a mistake to suppose that she can't rally support. what say you? >> absolutely. she has had a great roll-out of her campaign. the media has been complicit in that. allowing her to kind of change her positions. the problem is now voters are starteding to tune in. she have said she was a very progressive candidate for president in 2020 and very progressive vice president under joe biden. you know that the harris campaign is starting to get desperate when they calcia -- call joe off the bench. the problem she has is their members aren't buying what she is selling. they understand the green new deal likely puts a lot of them out of work. >> kevin: this is one of the real challenges, fred.

she can say what she wants now but the fact is we do have a record to look at. yet they continue to insist, does the harris-walz campaign that they are the underdogs in this. a campaign statement that says since vice president harris entered the race in late july our campaign has seen record fundraising numbers, a surge in volunteer interest and spike in enthusiasm to participate in this november's election and goes on to say however, make no mistake we head into the race as the clear underdogs. donald trump has a motivated support and higher favorability since he has had since 2020. are they on point or pulling our legs? >> well, i think all things are true. the reality she has a record and she is proud of the record and democrats aren't afraid of that record. it is also true she has had a surge of enthusiasm. the hundreds of millions she

raced and people who volunteered and closed the gap significantly completely wiped away that advantage that trump and vance had when they left the rnc convention. but all that being said she still not ahead and it doesn't feel quite comfortable. all the polling says she and trump are in a tie. both nationally. in the swing states of pennsylvania and so on and so forth. a lot of work to do. this is all about setting expectation is and making sure your base remains motivated and supporters engaged. don't take the foot off the gas. this is labor day. the official start. a lot of work to do. >> kevin: 60 plus days to go. thank you so much. it will be interesting to see how things turn out down the stretch. in particular as voters get a chance to re-examine not just her record and compare what she said then compared to what she says now but also getting a chance to see her personality and see if they like that.

gentlemen, thank you so much. >> making the american dream of homeownership available to all people is something we have to do for people now. >> this is undocumented. for the undocumented. >> what i would like to do is move them to documented. >> julie: as millions of americans face a nationwide housing crisis california lawmakers passed a bill that would give illegal immigrants money to become homeowners. you heard that right. republican congresswoman nichole malliotakis of new york joins us next to discuss. ♪

at fighting drug trafficking and violent gang activity. the mayor of aurora, colorado the city needs to get an emergency court order to clear the apartments targeted by migrant gangs. they blame a venezuelan gang known as tren de aragua for an armed takeoverer. they're active in the area but wouldn't confirm details surrounding the video. republican congressman tony gonzalez of texas with this. >> in many cases, these criminal organizations, these tren de aragua are growing in prominence. these venezuelan gangs. they're all over country and seeping their tentacles into our society. we have to get ahead of this and need real solutions. that real solutions is holding people accountable. deporting people and double down

on legal work visas, people doing it the right way. >> julie: nichole malliotakis of new york, member of the house ways and means committee and house republican conference assistant joins me now. it is a simple solution and you can actually probably guess why these violent gangs are here. we invited them. we've been creating free housing situations here in new york city and many other liberal cities. of course why wouldn't venezuelan gangs just assume they can take over apartment buildings? >> let's be clear. the biden-harris administration issued 60 executive orders that invited people to come in. they gave these individuals parole and forced customs and border protection to release them into the interior. that's what is happening. so it is happening in cities like that and happening in cities like new york city where gangs are taking over the migrant shelters and wreaking havoc on the streets. multiple women raped including a 13-year-old girl. shooting at our police officers and again, the biden-harris

administration gave them the ability to be in the country, okay? customs and border protection agents caught a lot of these guys at the border and they were directed to be released. that's why we wanted to impeach secretary mayorkas for his abdication of his responsibility to keep our borders safe and why kamala harris cannot be elected in november. if you give her the green light, she will just continue to do it and it will get worse. americans must beware and vote accordingly if they believe it is unacceptable. the vast majority of americans do. >> julie: i believe the voters need to understand and look at kamala harris's record as attorney general in california. it speaks volumes as far as illegal immigrants committing crimes. they were let back onto the streets under her policy and law that she, in fact wrote, but they were in fact given work incentives and trained on the

job training and if they were good, their records or criminal records would be expunged. in other words, it is not just catch and release, it is catch, release, promote illegals from reoffend and that's what they do. the repeat rate is astronomical because they're being let back on the streets. >> law enforcement agents, ice, she referred to them as kkk. this is a law enforcement entity that works to deport dangerous people. these criminals. murdereders and rapists. democrats in cities across america made it difficult. new york city, sanctuary city. california as well. so many of these sanctuary cities, all of them are democrat, by the way. and they are prohibiting their local law enforcement from cooperating with ice to deport individuals. then we had a vote in the house to say well, if somebody is committing a crime they must be deported and guess what? only six democrats actually voted with us.

so they are the party of lawlessness. they are the party of illegal immigration. they don't have any respect for people who came to this country the right way. worked hard, did everything right and are waiting in line. people paying drug cartels to get in are getting court dates first. they have shoved the legal immigrants to the end of the line. >> julie: you brought up california and just talking about it. once again california is passing a law that is really quite frankly -- it's unbelievable. when i read this headline and i learned of this law that was actually passed that will pass a bill california lawmakers passed a bill that would actually make undocumented immigrants eligible for home loans. americans are having a hard time getting home loans and now illegal immigrants are going to have the same access to mortgages as us? >> that's right. today is labor day. we're celebrating the american worker who works hard, pays

taxes. they expect more than this from the democrats. they should get more than this from what the democrats are giving them. they give them a tax bill to provide free services for illegal immigrants. in this case, they are giving free interest loans for people to buy a home while you are struggling with high inflation, interest rates, mortgage rates at the highest in two decades. if you earn $139,000 or $140 thousand in the city of fresno, california, you don't qualify for this program. you are out of luck. same thing happens with tim walz's minnesota, with new york, the democrats here. they give free college tuition to illegal immigrants, right? yet if your family earns over $125,000 in new york, let's say you are a family of five with three children to put their school you get absolutely no tuition assistance. the illegal immigrants do because they meet that threshold guideline. so this really is a slap in the face to the middle class more than anything.

because they do not qualify for these programs and yet they are being forced to pay for them because the democrats keep prioritizing illegal immigrants over hard-working citizens. >> julie: congresswoman malliotakis, thank you so much for talking to us. always great to hear your voice. thank you. >> thank you. >> then i got up and i let people know i was okay. fight, fight, fight. but i let people know i was okay. but it was a hit. it was a big hit and a miracle, actually. >> kevin: former president trump sharing new details on his experience in the moments after the attempt on his life. and the secret service says it is actually getting more help from other departments to insure that nothing like that ever happens again. former f.b.i. investigator bill dabill daly joins us next.

>> julie: the san francisco 49ers rookie was out of the hospital. she was shot on saturday. bill melugin with more on this disturbing story. >> julie, this is yet another bad headline for the city of san francisco as police there say the 49ers number one draft pick was the victim of an attempted robbery over his rolex watch carrying shopping bags back to his car. the video shows him being tended to by paramedics after being shot in the chest near union square over the weekend. he fought back and struggled over the gun and they both got shot. he has been released from the hospital. his mom posted on facebook her

son first and foremost i want to thank god for protecting my baby boy. he is extremely lucky. god shielded him. he was shot in the chest and exited out his back. thanks be to god it missed his vital organs. police say the suspect is a 17-year-old jove nile arrested and taken to the hospital. they don't believe he was targeted for being a pro football player. >> thankfully he is in stable condition. although the subject is in custody, this still is an active investigation. this kind of violence is simply unacceptable in our city. >> he had been signing autographs for fans hours before the shooting. unclear how long the gunshot injury will keep him off the football field. san francisco d.a. brook jenkins said her office expects to bring charges against the 17-year-old suspect by the middle of the week. those charges will be filed in juvenile court, not adult court.

you know that punishment will not be as severe as it could have been. send it back to you. >> julie: you're right. >> kevin: meantime the secret service says the defense department is giving them additional assistance to ramp up protective operations following the july 13th attempt on the life of former president trump. the secret service says it is bolstering those operations and has continued to do so since the shooting adding, quote, to insure the highest levels of safety and security. as for the former president, he is sharing new details about how he felt in the immediate after math of the shooting. listen. >> i felt very clear-headed. i knew i got hit in the ear. i felt i was 100% okay. secret service was very brave. they jumped. they were on me very quickly, seconds. i was down but they were on top of me and bullets were flying right over me.

i didn't know you could hear a bullet. you hear it like a whiz sound. there is no chance he could have missed from that distance when you talk to experts. i think he was hurried and rushed. people were starting to say there is a guy up there with a gun. and i think he was probably rushed. >> kevin: a former f.b.i. investigator joining us now. we could go down several rabbit holes on this story line. i have think there is a fair amount of righteous indignation here in this country about what happened and we still aren't getting enough clearance answers. i want to point out there was another individual who rushed the press area during another rally for the president. why does this happen and what if anything can be done? i get it. you are in the public space. a lot of people who may not be stable. i'm curious what if anything can be done? >> you're right. you are in the public space and

even people going into these venues, open or closed are screened for weapons. at least in the immediate venue close to the stage. but it doesn't take much for somebody who maybe has some mental instability or crazed in other ways. that's what the press call it when the individual climbed up on the stage where they have all the riser, where they have all the cameras and press are gathered and said he was ranting and spewing obscenities. these things do happen. they happen at all types of events. you want to make sure any of these individuals who may look to storm the stage, may have additional weapon don't get close to any one of the protectese. in this case the former president. your comments earlier about the secret service using more extensively the department of defense resources, they use them and rely on them heavily

especially international trips when they need to have communications set up at remote locations with no cell structure or use them domestically to move around all the presidential vehicles, all of their secure vehicles. there is a close working relationship with them and glad they're doing more. i think at this point, kevin, there will be a lot of stress on the secret service to provide protection. we have five senior political figures who need protection. have the current president, the current vice president, the former president who is running. you have two vice presidential candidates plus their families. nonetheless you may have heads of state or other senior executives within the government structure who may need protection as we've heard recently people in perhaps the national security council and others who need protection. there is a lot going on here and there is a very critical time certainly as we know both of the election and lead up to the election for these candidates and for the things they stand for. >> kevin: i'm glad you mentioned

the fact the d.o.d. additional assets have helped. when i've been abroad covering a g7 or something like that the president is overseas, there is hand in glove coordination. i'm curious if you think we'll continue to get more information about what happened with mr. crooks. from my perspective there appears to be more there than meets the eye. >> this past week the f.b.i. and pretty unprecedented way has given these updates provided an update this past week and said that although they've interviewed 1,000 individuals, they have done extensive online searches they don't have a motive. they know what his intent was but what the motive is. the mindset, behavioral analysis individuals from the f.b.i. provide a better idea why he did this. there was no testimonial, no letters, no dear diary that said what his intent was.

so that story remains a mystery. >> kevin: accounts overseas and love to hear from his parents. a lot to uncover. thank you for spending this labor day morning with us. >> bottom line, the average family when you adjust their income for inflation, has lost about $2 thousand in purchasing power and that happened under biden and kamala harris. >> julie: economy is a major campaign issue and this year maybe more than usual. vice president harris and former president trump trying to convince voters they have the answers. more on that next.

drone ship wednesday when it tipped over. spacex officials say the incident was a recovery issue and did not threaten public safety or hinder the primary mission which successfully deployed 21 star link satellites. hours after receiving clearance back-to-back falcon nine launches from florida and california placed more satellite in or bits and made perfect landings. it is good news for the polaris dawn mission attempting the first commercial space walk. they're waiting on the weather forecast to launch. september 24th is falcon nine will bring home starliner astronauts from the international space station. because of intermittent thrust tear problems nasa is flying it back to earth without astronauts on board e. over the weekend

way. vice president harris and former president trump have been courting union workers. several labor groups and leaders will join harris today in detroit. she will speak alongside president biden and other unions in pittsburgh. a new "wall street journal" poll shows voters trust trump more to handle the economy and inflation. brandon arnold, national taxpayers association executive vice president joins me now. it is no surprise they won't trust the current administration with the economy considering look at our economy and the inflation numbers. look at people's wallets and savings accounts dwindling. what will harris do about it that she hasn't done in the last four years as the vice president? >> that's the million dollar question there. she really needs to get out of biden's shadow because he has done such a horrible job on the economy when we look on inflation, the cost of living. the amount of household debt that is piling up right now

almost $18 trillion in collective household debt. how does she chart a course that is different than biden? we haven't seen it yet and it's been very, very concerning from a policy perspective. americans are looking for solutions here. president trump is offering lower taxes, less in the way of regulation and a stronger economy. harris hasn't been able to match him on that thus far. >> julie: an article from miranda devine in the "new york post" saying harris biden inner circle have almost no business experience. no wonder americans are hurting. quote, the average business experience of administration appointees is only 3.1 years and the median years of business experience is a big fat 0. the average business experience of biden-harris appointees is well behind the record of president trump's cabinet officials during his last year in office who had an average of 13 years of business experience. look, even if you don't have

business experience, you look at the numbers. the numbers speak for themselves. the numbers at the grocery store, the numbers any time that anyone goes to buy anything whether going out to dinner, paying for a hotel, it is unaffordable and why people's savings accounts have gone down drastically in the last month alone. the vice president hasn't come forward with really any real policy on how she plans on changing it. so of course there will be doubt and in pennsylvania and in michigan when you are talking about blue states that are typically union workers that are typically liberal, they will look at the current administration and they might flip-flop. >> yeah, i think that's very true. inflation doesn't care whether you vote for republicans or democrats. it hits all of us, right? it has become a pronounced economic issue. the number one economic issue facing voters right now. we need somebody with an agenda that will drive down inflation. that means lower taxes, that

means sound tax policy that encourages investment. that means an opportunity for americans to live the american dream. right now as long as we have greater regulation, more spending and higher taxes it will be tougher and tougher to do. >> julie: brandon arnold. thank you very much for talking to us. appreciate it. thank you. >> thanks for having me. >> kevin: a read-out of president biden's situation room meeting reading in part quote president biden expressed his devastation and outrage at the murder and reaffirmed the importance of holding hamas's leaders accountable. during the meeting they received an update from u.s. negotiators as they continue to work with their counterparts in tel aviv. julie, this has been great to work with you. >> julie: you have been at fox for ten years and i've been here 19 years. in is the first time we've

worked together. seriously, so nice to have you here in new york city. did you like the city while you were here? all right. have him back, please, whoever scheduled you to come up here. we would love that. thank you so much for joining us for a special edition of fox news live. only three hours. it flew by. >> kevin: happy labor day, everybody. "outnumbered" is next.
