tv   FOX Report  FOX News  August 11, 2013 7:00pm-8:00pm EDT

7:00 pm
this is the "fox report." tonight panic at one of our nation's busiest airports. the suspicious package opened. workers getting sick. and the first tests come back positive for nerve gas. and a half world away from america, our symbols of freedom have reopened their doors in some of the most hostile places for our people to work and live on the planet. american embassies throughout much of the muslim world open again. but officials warn the terror threat is not over. fox reports the latest on al qaeda as some lawmakers say it's all proof the terror group is not on the run. it's on the rise.
7:01 pm
and exactly one year after he burst on to the national stage as a vice presidential candidate, congressman paul ryan is back. reaching out to members of the former team romney. tonight, the e-mail that has some political watchers asking if paul ryan wants to run again. perhaps this time at the top of the ticket? also, a kidnapped teenager back with her dad after agents shot her suspected captor dead. a bittersweet reunion as we learn more about the deadly siege that set her free. i'm harris faulkner. we begin tonight with a terror threat that prompted washington to take unprecedented precautionary measures around the world. those included closing embassies and consulates from north africa across the middle east all the way to east asia. then a global travel alert which remains in effect for all americans until the end of august. tonight, some signs things are beginning to return to normal. embassies like the one you see
7:02 pm
here in cairo are now back open for the first time in a week. in all, 18 facilities in operation again. two remain closed, though. one in yemen where the state department says there are, quote, ongoing concerns about al qaeda. the other in lahore, pakistan, which was shut down on tuesday because of a separate threat. arizona senator john mccain, who recently went to egypt, taking to twitter today, saying our decision to close down embassies shows al qaeda is on the rise in the middle east. and earlier today on "fox news sunday" the senator blaming president obama's foreign policy. >> the only american policy that i can think of that president obama is practicing is that, one, he's not bush. second, that the united states is withdrawing. we are withdrawing. and when you do that and when you say that, then things get a lot worse than they are. >> live with the news tonight in washington, steve, the embassy in yemen remains closed. why is that significant?
7:03 pm
>> well, we don't know if there's an actual threat there or what kind of a threat. we do know yemen's a stronghold of the al qaedan the arabian peninsula. president obama says that branch of al qaeda continues to pose a serious threat to americans. but the president's critics say he's been understating the overall terrorist threat. >> you can't say on the one hand you have destroyed, quote, core al qaeda. by the way, that is semantic gymnastics which is remarkable. you can't say that and at the same time have to close embassies and consulates all over the middle east. look, al qaeda's on the rise. they have been on the rise. they have continued to penetrate. >> mccain said he thinks al qaeda in yemen could pose problems for americans for years to come. harris? >> how are democrats defending the president, then, when it comes to his claim that al qaeda is decimated, on the run, he says? >> right. they say there is a distinction to be made. that the so-called core al qaeda
7:04 pm
has been degraded. as for this particular threat, it seems to be passing. now that most embassies are reopening, including this one in tripoli, libya. democrats defend not only the president's assessment of al qaeda's strength, but also the precautions he took. >> there was strong intelligence information. and any time an american is put at risk in the world or our homeland we have to deal with it. we have to be cautious. we've done a good job in afghanistan and pakistan dealing with the core of al qaeda. but al qaeda in the arabian peninsula is getting stronger and their focus has been the united states. >> no word yet on when that embassy in yemen may reopen. harris? >> thank you. today a reminder of just how deadly and dangerous al qaeda is in yemen. suspected al qaeda militants killed five soldiers at a check point that were guarding oil and gas projects in the central part of that country. pipelines are an attractive target for terrorists. in fact, a car bomber tried to attack that same pipeline back in june. but the vehicle exploded before
7:05 pm
reaching the intended destination. yemeni officials recently claim they have foiled a brazen al qaeda plot to seize a key port city and kidnap or kill foreigners working there. our government has not confirmed that plot. but all this comes as the u.s. steps up its drone strikes inside yemen. such strikes have taken out 38 suspected al qaeda militants in just the past two weeks alone. an emotional reunion and brand-new reaction now that a multistate man hunt for a suspected killer and his kidnapped victim is over. hannah anderson rescued last night. the man who allegedly took her, james dimaggio, killed in a shootout with law enforcement. 16-year-old hannah whisked away to a hospital for evaluation. today her father, brett anderson, talked with fox news by phone before heading to idaho to join his daughter. >> what's the first thing you're going to do when you see hannah? >> let her know that i love her and her country was looking for her.
7:06 pm
>> what would you say to other parents out there who would be going through something similar to what you faced this past week? >> just, you know, pay attention to these alerts. they obviously work. it was great that as a nation people came together, kept an eye out, and hopefully that will happen every time one comes across. because we can save some people. >> the drama unfolded one week ago today. an amber alert issued for hannah in california, where san diego authorities found the remains of her mother and 8-year-old brother at the home of dimaggio, which they say he'd set on fire. he'd been a long time friend of the family. one of hannah's friends even said that he had a crush on her. late last week authorities in idaho found dimaggio's car outside the small town of cascade. it was at the head of that trail leading into a rugged area called the no return wilderness where they began to search. a short time later four people on horseback saw a couple of people matching the description of the suspect and the girl in that same area.
7:07 pm
the man who made the very first call to the amber alert tipline said he knew something wasn't right. >> he might have been an outdoorsman in california. but he was not an outdoorsman in idaho. >> he said it was the way he was dressed that kind of tipped him off. authorities searched for remote wilderness and found their target from the air at a fortified camp site. will karr live in cascade, idaho. will? >> reporter: hi, harris. we're learning a lot more about what helped authorities sweep in and shoot and kill dimaggio and then rescue hannah. now, those witnesses are two couples. they tell us that this past wednesday they were actually fishing in a very isolated part of idaho. and they were on horseback coming back from fishing when they ran into hannah and dimaggio. they tell us that hannah was wearing pajamas. and that when they tried to talk to her she would turn her face. they tell us they had a gut feeling that something just wasn't right. >> in that time, he had moved closer to her. and it looked like he had his
7:08 pm
arm around her -- her waist. she did appear frightened. but i thought it was fear of the horses. >> they tell us that was a brief encounter. then they say a short time later they actually had a second encounter with hannah and dimaggio near a lake. they say that when they walked up, hannah had her feet in the water. again, she didn't say a whole lot until they started to walk away. >> what are you doing with your feet in the water, i said. don't you know there's fish in there. kind of joking. then as we turned to ride away, she didn't -- she didn't make any comment. we started riding away and she said, it looks like we're all in trouble now. >> the witnesses say they really don't know what she meant by that. they went home the next day. at the time, they didn't realize there was a man hunt. when they went home they realized there was a man hunt. they called police immediately. police responded. they ended up finding dimaggio's car hidden. it was pretty much completely covered in brush. there's also some reports that he tried to fortify the area
7:09 pm
where they were eventually found and where hannah was rescued. that area was about five to six mimes away from the car. the witnesses are thrilled she's okay. harris? >> what about hannah, now? i had mentioned, will, they took her to a hospital for evaluation. how is she doing? >> reporter: harris, right now authorities are being pretty tight lipped with exactly where they took her. they do tell us she's in good condition. she's supposed to be reunited with her father at some point today. that will definitely be an emotional reunion. authorities tell us that all in all, with everything that happened yesterday, they really could not have asked for a better conclusion. harris? >> will, thank you. a heavy alert situation at the nation's -- one of the nation's busiest airports. new york's jfk. reports of a package at jfk that had tested positive for a nerve gaslike substance at the airport's postal facility. two u.s. customs agents taken to the hospital after feeling sick. but a careful examination by an
7:10 pm
fbi laboratory retested and revealed the package contained nothing more than beauty supplies. officials pointing out to us today that a number of harmless chemicals can actually trigger a false reading for nerve gas. right now, a drug kingpin who killed an american federal agent is walking free in mexico. that's after a legal technicality, they tell us. cut the killer loose. now, the concern that the same technicality could set even more drug lords and other violent criminals free. and president obama outlining his plan to change the way the government keeps tabs on all of us. tonight, a response from some lawmakers who say the proposed new policies by the president would leave us all in danger. stay close. when you realizeou need to switch to verizon,
7:11 pm
it's a reality check. i had my reality check when i'd be sitting there with my friends who had their verizon phones and i'd be sitting there like "mine's still loading!" i couldn't get email. i couldn't stream movies. i couldn't upload any of our music. i couldn't count on it, that's when i decided to switch. now that i'm on verizon, everything moves fast. with verizon, i have that reliability. i'm completely happy with verizon. verizon's 4g lte is the most reliable and in more places than any other 4g network. period. that's powerful. verizon.

7:14 pm
relations between the united states and mexico could potentially take a serious hit following prison releases of some notorious criminals, including a drug lord in mexico. this man was serving a 40-year sentence for ordering the murder of an american drug enforcement agent back in 1985. but he was freed on friday after a mexican court ruled he had been improperly tried in a federal court for state crimes. officials with the u.s. national security council say they are deeply concerned by that ruling, adding, quote, we remain as committed today in seeing quinter and others involved in this crime in the united states as we were in the aftermath of kiki. kiki camareno, was kidnapped,
7:15 pm
tortured and killed. just yesterday the attorney for another mexican drug lord tied to that agent's murder said his client and others could be released from prison within a couple of weeks. on that same legal technicality. where lawmaker as appear toe at odds over handling our government's top secret snooping programs, critics are calling out president obama who said friday he'd call for greater transparency in an effort to ease people's concerns. one gop lawmaker called the president's ideas pure window dressing. others are defending the nsa and its surveillance of our phone calls and e-mails saying reforms could affect our counterterrorism efforts, in fact, make it dangerous for some of us. elizabeth prann with the news tonight from washington. >> hi, harris. on the heels of president obama's friday press conference we learned the government will continue its nsa surveillance program. there will be additional efforts with congress as well as other means to improve transparency. but that has created debate among lawmakers. the president says he will push
7:16 pm
for more explanation from the nsa as well as an independent attorney during secret foreign intelligence surveillance court hearings, or fisa hearings. as well as an outside advisory panel to review u.s. surveillance powers. some nsa backers say while its programs are keeping america safe, friday's proposals could slow the efficiency. >> the idea of having a public defender, when really it's a search warrant to the fisa court, which you wouldn't have in a normal criminal case, would slow down the efficacy and efficiency of our counterterrorism investigation. >> on the other hand, some lawmakers are rejecting the complaints from critics and praising members who participate in intelligence briefings. >> with a legal program, it was authorized by congress in passing laws. there are checks and balances. not only in the intelligence committee but you have the justice department and you have the administration. >> house homeland security committee chairman mccall says the president's changes are, quote, window dressing.
7:17 pm
while committee member peter king says any attempt to overhaul the nsa's programs would be a monumental failure. >> thank you. a team of federal investigators due to arrive tomorrow at the scene of a deadly plane crash in texas that happened earlier today this morning just outside dallas. two people onboard died when their small beach craft slammed into a field and burst into flame. no word yet on where that flight originated or its intended destination. the first hint from a possible presidential candidate for 2016. the e-mail from congressman paul ryan, which political pundits are saying might indicate this wisconsin republican is getting ready to run again. but not as vice president. and later, another double murder. another missing child. after that daring rescue in california, another family in rhode island hoping for that same thing to happen for them.

a possible first sign former republican vice presidential candidate paul ryan may be thinking about running for the top spot on the ticket in 2016. congressman ryan reached out to former presidential nominee mitt romney's campaign team. fox news has obtained an e-mail the congressman sent the team, team romney today. exactly one year to the day that that campaign announced him as governor romney's running mate. part of it reads, quote, it's easy to get discouraged these days, but we can't give up. we care too much about our country. so we're going to retool and
7:22 pm
rebuild. that's why i'm optimistic about the future. the congressman ended his message by saying, quote, we are an incredible team. i hope we can stay in touch, end quote. a new amber alert tonight coming in the wake of that dramatic one that recently ended in idaho with the rescue of hannah anderson which we told you about earlier this hour. this one across the country in rhode island. a toddler is missing from the scene of a double murder. tonight the suspected killer is behind bars, but the little boy, 2 years old who lived with the people who were killed in that home, is nowhere to be found. brian yennis is following the story. do we know anything about where that child? >> harris, right now i can tell you that really the police have two suspects in custody. we have -- we have actually -- in connection with the double murder, abduction of the 2-year-old, isaiah perez. still missing after he was taken from his home in johnson, rhode island, ten miles from providence where police found
7:23 pm
two people ted at approximately 5:20 this morning. he has black hair, brown eyes and may be wearing a bracelet on his right wrist. there are reports there are two other children inside the the home at the time of the murders. police issuing a statewide amber alert at 11:00 this morning for isaiah after neighbors say they saw a man fleeing the home where the double murder took place, the boy in hand. >> bryan, what do we know about the suspects at this point? >> johnson police in rhode island arrested daniel rodriguez from providence as the second suspect for the double murder and abduction of isaiah. the originally listed 22-year-old malcolm crow. when police arrested crow, isaiah was not with him. he does have a criminal background. in 2007 he was arrested for assaulting his girlfriend, vanessa perez. we don't know his exact relationship with the two people found ted and missing child. harris, bottom line, there are
7:24 pm
still more questions than answers. the most important one remains. where is 2-year-old isaiah perez. if you have any information about his whereabouts or the murder case please call the rhode island police department at 401-462-6237. harris? >> bryan, i noticed as you were doing that story we did not put the number up on the screen. we will before the end of the newscast. we'll recap this for people. because as we heard with hannah anderson's dad earlier in the newscast, the public can really make a difference. bryan, thank you. >> thank you. when the federal reserve talks, wall street tends to listen. and fed members are slated to deliver another round of speeches in the coming days. but their words are not the only factor which could determine whether your 401(k), your little nest egg for retirement, heads up or down this week. fox news senior business correspondent and anchor of bulls and bears brenda butner has more. >> you might think wall street would be fed up with worrying about the fed. the question will they or won't they ease up on the easy money has been feeding market moves of
7:25 pm
late. and this week more fed talk is on the agenda. mainly speeches by members of the federal reserve. but wall street will also be watching you. did you open your wallet? earnings from major retailers such as macy's, walmart and kohl's are released this week. the s&p 500, likely a part of your retirement plan, fell 1.1% last week. worst weekly performance since june. keep in mind, though, it is up some 18% so far this year. besides earnings from retailers this week, we get word on overall retail sales for july and consumer spending and consumer sentiment. harris, back to you. >> brenda, thank you. the controversy surrounding admitted nsa leaker edward snowden not just raising questions about our government's massive and secrettive surveillance programs. it's also beginning to wear on our relationship with one of the most important countries in the

7:30 pm
i'm harris faulkner. this is "the fox report." it's the bottom of the hour. father of admitted nsa leaker edward snowden says he has a visa and is ready to travel to russia to see his son soon. speaking today, lon snowden said his son edward would not be able to get a fair trial here in the u.s. and also criticized president obama for comments he made about his son. >> i was disappointed in the president's press conference. i believe that's driven by his clear understanding that the american people are absolutely unhappy with what they've learned. and that more is going to be forthcoming. again, and i believe much of what he suggested is superficial. >> this comes amid relations with russia that have clearly cooled off in recent months. president obama even canceling his upcoming one on one meeting with the russian president vladimir putin, partially because of russia's decision to grant edward snowden temporary asylum.
7:31 pm
the obama administration says there are several other factors as well. senior white house foreign affairs correspondent is in martha's vineyard where the president is vacationing with the first family. wendell, lawmakers are waying in on this relationship and the decision to cancel the meeting there at the summit. >> reporter: harris, they did on the sunday talk shows, few if any willing to say canceling the summit was a mistake. but there are a lot of questions about and criticisms of the relationship. john mccain says the u.s. ought to press harder for the european missile defense and he asks what edward snowden was doing with so much classified information anyway. >> it couldn't have been part of his job. what about congressional oversight? have we had a failure there? clearly, mr. snowden's being granted asylum in russia is a signal of incredibly bad relations between the united states and russia. and mr. putin putting his thumb right in america's eye.
7:32 pm
>> reporter: former nsa director michael hayden says he doubts there will be major changes in the agency's operation. he notes the president has called for more transparency and for a civil liberties advocate to weigh in on warrants. but hayden says there is no suggestion that anything done in the obama or bush administration was anything other than lawful, effective and appropriate. harris? >> well, and i was reading that snowden's dad was saying, too, today that he doesn't want his son to make a deal to come back to this country because he thinks that he won't get a fair trial. you know, the president is going to the g-20 summit in st. petersburg, though, i do understand. >> reporter: and that, harris, is the clearest sign that his decision to cancel the moscow summit was aimed at vladimir putin, not the u.s./russian relationship. the u.s. and russian secretaries of state and defense met in washington on friday to talk about syria, iran, the european missile defense and other issues including edward snowden. there was no indication of a breakthrough on any of those
7:33 pm
issues. but most lawmakers say they need to keep talking. >> russia is an important country. they are helping us in afghanistan to remove some of our supplies. and so we don't want to cut off our nose to spite our face. i think it's outrageous what putin did. i think the united states should respond in kind. i think the president by canceling that meeting with putin, it was very appropriate. i think there are other things we should do as well. >> reporter: the president says he's attending the g-20 summit in st. petersburg because it includes the leaders of china, india, brazil and other emerging markets whose imports can help the u.s. economic recovery. harris? >> thank you very much. we are now only weeks away from the roll out of what will essentially be the foundation of obama care. the federal and state-based insurance exchanges where americans are set to be able to go online and shop for health insurance that they are now required to purchase. but several key components of president obama's landmark law
7:34 pm
have already been delayed. some by a year. most notably the employer mandate which requires companies with more than 50 full-time employees to offer health insurance to them. this comes as new questions are being raised about what is going to happen in about 50 days from now. joining me now is dr. marc siegel, associate professor of medicine at nyu langone medical center. fox news medical "a" teamer we like to call you. expert on board. you're on the front lines. you're a doctor. you have to know how this is going to work. give us a diagnosis for october 1st when this rolls in. >> first thing is, it's not ready. 34 states are going to be -- they're going to have the federally run exchanges. they're not in place. they're not going to be ready by october 1. several states on the west coast and here in the northeast are state run exchanges. they haven't passed several approvals yet. they're expecting 7 million people to be covered under the state and federally run
7:35 pm
exchanges in 2014. my prediction, medical prediction, is that won't happen. 7 million is not, of course, a lot of people. but i don't think they're going to be ready for what they're saying they're going to be ready for. >> 7 million are a lot if you're one of them. >> that's right. >> and you don't know what's going to happen. >> i don't think they're going to be ready. it's going to cost $2 million for center for medicare and medicaid services to administrate it in 2014. >> 2 million? >> 2 million. 2 billion, i'm sorry. >> okay. not that a million isn't a big number. it sounded low for what we're talking about. the president sold his plan speaking of money as cutting costs for services. is that what you foresee town the road? >> i don't foresee that either. because, first of all, the cost of these tests are not going down. as technology improves, medical care is more and more expensive. we don't have uniform pricing. as the bill covers more and more people, and as it does it in a way with a lot of preventive services and a lot of medical services that weren't previously covered, it's got to be more
7:36 pm
expensive. premiums will continue to rise. they were rising already. they're going to continue to rise. on the state exchanges, you have platinum plans, gold plans. you have bronze plans, silver plans. all of them are very, very comprehensive which going to be expensive. now, if you have 133% to 400% of the poverty line, if that's where you are in terms of income, you will qualify for tax deductions or subsidies. but, again, that may make it cheaper for you. but it's coming out of the taxpayer pocket. >> somebody has to compensate for that. it's not going to be the insurance company. it won't be the doctors. >> the doctors, there's another problem with the doctors. this is key to the problems i foresee in 2014. because as you go to the exchanges, you may find your doctor's not in that plan. you may find your hospital is not in that network. or you may say, my primary care doctor is, but the people he's used to referring to are not. networks may not stay the way they are right now. >> all right. people are getting vocal about this. i want to show you a fox news
7:37 pm
poll if we can pop this up on the screen for everybody. this shows that people say at 31% who were surveyed, the rollout of this is going just fine. a whopping 57% describe it as a joke. what are your parents saying -- what are your patients saying and how are you preparing them for what happens next? >> my patients have changed. because at the beginning when this law was first coming in i must confess many were excited if they didn't have coverage. now they're worried they're not going to have access. they're very well aware of the doctor shortage, of the nursing shortage in this country. they're aware that the network of doctors they're used to may not be there. the question isn't just am i fwoing to have insurance, but is my insurance going to get me access to my physician. they're worried about that. >> one last question before i let you fgo. we saw the president on friday express some of the strongest language yet defending obama care. and basically he pulled from the political aisle this argument that republicans are using this, and these are his words, as the holy grail, the idea of
7:38 pm
repealing the new health care legislation. i want to listen to a little bit of the president. you watch it with me. then i'll get a comment from you. let's watch. >> the one unifying principle in the republican party at the moment is making sure that 30 million people don't have health care. >> you know, i read this week that unions are pushing against this. it's not just republicans. so what is the strongest argument from you as a doctor against obama care that they can make on the hill, that they can make in unions against this? >> as a doctor i don't think repeal is the strongest argument. the political structure is not there for repeal. what is the strongest argument is there is no free initiatives. health savings accounts. higher, not lower deductibles. tax incentives for losing weight, exercising. real preventive medicine thap that's all lack ing. we need more free market in obama care. if that were added the cost would go down. right now the strongest argument republicans have, it's way too expensive and people are not going to get access to care.
7:39 pm
