and lenore can't find one. >> ok.you're ready. >> reporter: lenore has taken nick for interviews at a number of agencies that provide social workers. but none of them have agreed to take his case. >> to raise an autistic child you almost, you can't -- you can't do it without the help. and right now um, i don't know how we're gonna do it. i don't know what kinda life he's gonna have because we're looking at a really barren landscape for him. i don't think i've ever been more terrified than i am right now. >> reporter: autism advocate linda walder says government programs aren't designed for adults with autism. >> the problem is, is that system is really broken. it's dated. it's not addressing the needs of adults and the growing population of adults living with autism. >> reporter: it's not addressing the reality we have now. >> reporter: without appropriate jobs or housing adults with autism have higher rates of unemployment than individuals with other disabilities. >> reporter: and 80 percent under age 30 live at home

lenore you spend a lot of time in europe. is this even possible to keep europeans away from an iphone. >> good luck with that. david: yeah. >> i think, you've also got to love twitter by the way. leadership by twitter is not a good idea, fun to see all the pictures coming up of the president of turkey using all of his iphones. david: practice what you preach, mr. president. >> exactly. david: gary, it is just silly for him to suggest this. i just wonder, some people, and wall street at first was afraid this thing was going to spread. it seems so specific to this one guy, erdogan and what is happening in his country and his disputes over that pastor that they're holding in jail. i don't think it is going to spread, do you? >> i really don't at this point. you never know because you never know what banks own but this is very simplistic. mr. erdogan has obviously got that pamphlet written by hugo chavez and nicholas maduro how to run a country in the toilet. that is what he is doing. he is actually following their template to a

lenore maybe. but lenore, would that be jeopardized if people were chasing the president down?peachment efforts in the past when they involved richard nixon, bill clinton in that process it is very shaky for stocks to stablize. what do you think? >> it is definitely shaky for stocks. it is shaky for the economy. i'm not really happy with the direction the public discourse has gone on this we live under the rule of law. the rule of law is not something supposed to be bought. so if the argument is, if, let's first address, is this a legal issue? now if it's a legal issue, then we shouldn't not pursue the legal side because it would be bad for the economy or for stocks? that means we don't have a rule of law. that just means, we do whatever is good for the bottom line in the short run. neil: don't you understand, lenore? we want to get rich. we don't care about morals or ethics. what is wrong with you? what is wrong with you? >> i lost my head. i get confused. neil: no, go ahead, fred. >> one other thing you have to think about is, what, the crime may be that president trump has c

lenore what do you think of that? >> well, media, they command taking over the fox assets about 40% of the box office. so yes, not real excited to see that. what i would also like to see though, here if they're getting more guidance on espn plus, they have been really quiet on that. that's been a long-time loser for them. they haven't been giving much metrics. i would like to see if we're getting anything there, the lack of metrics, indicates struggling part. melissa: gary, we're seeing studios and parks up 6%. what do you think of that number? >> well, first off the total earnings look up about almost 20%, so not that bad, obviously disney did not do a good job guiding. sales look up of or 7%. being in orlando, the parks are packed. doing great there. prices keep going up. if it rains they sell ponchos. if it is too hot they sell fans with water coming out. they got you every which way they go. i have to see inside numbers. this is one of the great brand names of all time. i think it will continue to be. one bad quar

david: lenore, explain why that is bad for investors? >> that is bad for investors that means companies are having to pay more to their employees to get less out of them. that means pressure on your profits. that is pressure on the bottom line. david: michael, does that concern you. >> not at all. i would like to see more productivity but we're seeing companies adopt technology en masse. look what amazon has done with amazon web services. microsoft has done an amazing job moving to the cloud there is no slowdown of pace of tech adoption. we're getting a different type of shift. it tee departments are moving to the cloud that is massive. there is a lot of money to be made in these stocks. david: i don't want to get too much into the weeds, jonathan, when productivity goes down, it is an inflation concern. when you have inflation, one of the best ways to lick it is improving productivity. we already have inflation licking at our heels here. with lower productivity, might that make that even more of a problem? >> david, make a tremendous po

connell: thank you, lenore and rich. if you saw "the wall street journal" this morning the editorial board has an interesting piece warning republicans not to dismiss the evidence they say building for a quote, unquote blue wave. so the question becomes, president trump and gop leaders, are they ignoring some of those signs? let's bring in brad black man, former deputy assistant to president george w. bush. brad, always good to see you. the journal, the op-ed, there are two or three interesting things i want to throw at you in that piece. one i have seen a couple different places numbers in this range, republicans hold 68 house seats, quote, unquote, less republican than ohio 12. so if this ohio race the other night was so close, then the logic goes they would be in some real trouble in some of these other ones. what would you say? >> i think we have to run with a view from history and history tells us since the civil war the party in power controlling the white house loses on average of 33 house seats and two senate sea

melissa: lenore, the numbers are staggering. we were showing a bunch of them. i remember march of 2009, people being afraid. nasdaq is up 516%. s&p 500, 321%. the dow almost 300%. what is the lesson there? >> well i think one of the things to look at, if we want to get a lesson from history, is look at the relationship between the unemployment rate and the future of equity returns. right now, we're in a sub4% unemployment environment. that is super, super rare. only really happened three times going back to world war ii. happened right after world war ii, everyone is getting back to work from the workforce. it happened from 66 to 70. during that time there was basically no movement in stocks. your returns were flat. happened again in 2,000, 10 months in 2000. we all know the story after 2000. equity returns aren't that great. i'm a little worried when i see that. i see the stocks are still pretty richly-priced. i see corporate profits as percent of that economy, the gdp that is at really high levels. that tells me going forward to really get great stock price m

david: here to react is lenore hawki hawkins, and james freeman, fox news contributor. today the "wall street journal" had a harsh editorial on the trade deal called "half a nafta." lot of people saw that as a slap-back but not so larry kudlow. take a listen. >> my good friends at the "wall street journal," i think for them, on a trump-adjusted basis that was a pretty favorable editorial. what can i say? david: trump-adjusted basis. i love that new measure from larry. what do you think? >> look, we did point out that u.s.biologic do get patent protection under this deal. a lot of this is not a win for consumers, for trade, but i'm optimistic that canada will come on board. i think they have every reason to. obviously, you would have to say they have less leverage than they did couple days ago, before mexico and the u.s. said we are willing to go it alone. david: of course, even if canada does get on board, then it goes to congress. they have 90 days to mess with it. they have messed with a lot of stuff. >> don't forget that we have midterm elections coming up. if this i

let me ask you, lenore what happens on the trade front too. we got some promising signs, with the walmart news came out for example, that china was interested in sending a representative to washington to talk trade. now they might not be the highest level officials but it is the first time anyone talked to anyone since the spring. so i'm wondering what you make of that europeans markets hearing that rebounded. i'm wondering if that is factoring into this rally, what do you any. >> definitely. that is not good for anyone, for there to be this big trade war and we've got a really critical game of chicken going on right now. china's economy by a lot of measures is not doing so great, well, chinese leadership, that guy has the job for life, versus a republican -- neil: you're right about that. >> republicans facing upcoming midterms elections and they can't to to election with this being a mess because democrats will make hay out of headlines of an ongoing battle. neil: jim, the thought that the talks are going to resume doesn't mean they will com

toll brothers will supply the homes you need i like the group i like the group ever since lenore saide shortage but the group needed lower interest rates interest rates were going 2.5 to 3. no one wanted to touch housing i know there hasn't been a big increase in getting new mortgages. >> no. >> or refies but the fact is, rates are low enough for toll. people who buy $800,000 homes, david, they're not going to buy one of those homes for half a percent interest we have to watch the group it had been written off and dead once again, a group that has been declared dead is coming back this market is amazing. >> speaking of groups or stocks declared dead for a period of time that come back. i hadn't noticed until recently that verizon is up 3.5% for the year. >> talk about coming back. >> merrill recommended that. >> and verizon is widely held, of course. >> verizon is a component of a lot of people's portfolios since the break up of at&t. >> i mean, david, t-mobile has been doing great since the quarter. verizon has been doing great since the quarter. at&t a lamented quarter. comcast. it

i remember sitting down next to the dean of the women who was a woman named lenore sullivan from missouri, who was the chairman of the committee, and i know you are my dean, what should i call you. she said my name is mrs. john sullivan. i said yeah. i know that. what should i call you? she said call me by my name, my name is mrs. john sullivan. i thought we are not going to have a lot of bonding here. we had at that time i think it was almost half of the women here had inherited, not inherited, but had run for their husband's seats. not all of them, but some of them, like mrs. sullivan that they were just a woman, they were carrying forward his agenda, whatever that was. so, there were patchy things. then, there is the others. larson from michigan, she was terrific. there was the other group that wasn't quite there, yet. that is why we didn't have women's pockets. 14 was small enough. if you take half of them out, we have at least double digits. >> you joined four other freshmen woman at the beginning of that conference. later on two widows succeeded their husbands. what kind of bond did

. >> reporter: lenore skenazy, an advocate for the free-range parenting movement, says independence isgive them independence it's a chance for them to become resilient. >> reporter: earlier utah's governor signed a bill giving parents the freedom to allow their children to do more activities independently. without being penalized for child neglect like walking to school, playing outside and staying home alone. new york and texas are now considering similar legislation illinois department of children and family services says we did what the people of illinois ask us to do, we investigated. we found no wrongdoing on the part of this mother and we closed the case last week. so, mom, corey and daughter dorothy and their little dog marshmallow are joining us live. i have to ask you what your initial reaction was when that doorbell rang and you saw police on the other side of the door. >> shock, anger, fear. my first response was i thought they were there for fund-raising or something. when i found out what the call was about, i just couldn't believe it. >> then i'm sure you felt equally app

anne spencer meets lenore herston and they go on up to philadelphia. there was so much during this period of time. it really was a movement, a really new movement. so that was, i think, just a fun time to come, relax, think, write, whatever was going on here. so here now, we are in the living room or parlor at the anne spencer museum. there are several things here in the parlor that are of interest. we have a letter here from w.e.b. dubois dated 1934, and the interesting thing about this letter is that there's a story that will be told. whenever dubois would come to visit, he would say he was going to bring some smart woman and she was usually a doctor or lawyer. so when they came across this letter in her papers, it says p.s., if i come, i will bring an interesting guest, in parentheses, female and m.d., to worship at the shrine. this room was added on in the 1920s and it was added on i think during the period of time, this was the real hayday of the house. this is where not only is the spencer family growing but they are having more and more visitors

who was a woman named lenore sullivan from missouri. she was the chairman of the committee. i'm pat schroeder and i'm new here and what should i call you? she said, my name is mrs. john sunllivan. and i said i know that, what should i call you? she said you can call me grandma name. my name is mrs. john sullivan. and i thought we're not going to have a lot of bonding here. we had at that time, i think it was almost half of the women here had inherited -- not inherited really, but had run for their husband's seats after their husband had died. not all of them, but some like mrs. john sullivan thought they were just a woman. they were carrying forward his agenda. whatever that is. so there were the patsy minks and the bella abzugs, and shirley chisholm, yes. there was a nice bonding there. then there's the others, oh, martha, from michigan, martha griffiths, but there was the other group that wasn't quite there yet. that's why we didn't have a women's caucus. 14 was small enough. if you take about half of them , seven, we had at least a couple digits. it took a while to get a
