brett baer, brett and you know, just matt. he brings up a very good point in the whole process here in the tiktok all day long where you talked about it on special report. the fact that it seems like reuters kind of broke this early, and then you had the court coming back by the way it was on the fulton county courthouse website the dot gov website this indictment and then you had the courthouse coming out saying no, no, no, that was fictitious. pay no attention to that. then, of course when the release of the actual indictment a few minutes ago, brett it was broken again by reuters. i mean, it just seems to be, uh, oddly coincidental. yeah tracy, just bizarre, certain circumstances . the clerk saying that what posted on the website was fictitious, but not getting about how they got to the website, so it was very bizarre , but it did speed up and we saw witnesses that we're going to be called tomorrow get called today. they didn't get actually testify and everything sped up. and here we are at 11 p.m. eastern time for a press

brett i'm really delighted to be with you. your book, lost son an american family trapped inside the fbi secret wars. this is this is a rich book filled with a lot of different subjects. it's about russia. it's about ukraine. it's about the fbi. it's about a detective story. it's about this one sort of lost soul. this character, billy riley, and i think we should start with with with the human piece of this, because people are always interested to peel back the curtain a little bit. and what we journalists do. you are clearly a fearsome investigate a reporter. and yet i think in some ways it must have been this personal story of this young man that kind of captured your attention. tell us why, billy riley, why you told this story. well, first of all, susan, thank you for graciously hosting this event. and and and to politics and prose for doing likewise and for everyone who's come tonight. yeah, it's i when i first heard of this story, i immediately saw its narrative potential because i saw that that it was a it was a story ab

and when that was not enough, she then allegedly paid favre, brett favre, millionaire brett favre annal $1.1 million personally to him supposedly for radio ads paid for out of a fund for welfare recipients >> seth: now remember, this is the same state, mississippi, that's also been facing a disastrous water crisis affecting the majority black city of jackson. and yet, the state's republicans are so cartoonishly corrupt they stole money set aside for poor people and gave it to a multi-millionaire nfl quarterback. i think his punishment from this point forward, favre should not be remembered for his 16 seasons with green bay packers, but for his 1 season with the new york jets i'm sorry, brett [ laughter ] actions have consequences. [ cheers and applause although it should be noted, they did win the super bowl that year [ light laughter ] i mean, they went 9-7, but that's like a super bowl for the jets [ laughter ] you know, sometimes we have international viewers who leave comments for me and they say "we really don't like these jets jokes because obviously, we don't get them." so jus

brett former u.s. attorney, politicians do live from time to time.'t want to upset either one of you guys that never ran for office but politicians do live from time to time they even claim they won when they did not. but what makes this criminal fraud as opposed to the normal political fraud. >> thank you for having me on i will tell you there is a legal and factual analysis that a prosecutor goes through in deciding whether or not something is criminal and here the real concern that i have is the creativity of crop under prosecutors as of late i still don't believe that prosecutor should be creative. were supposed to have a system where you have a clear statute that has been violated, criminal intent to violate that statute in the facts supported and then you charge that. the real concern you have co-conspirators that are lawyers giving advice, there is no real analysis of the advice of counsel defense the criminal intent part of the case that is required and that's the concern going into this, this is a political case where the civil law would've

joining me now is one of the authors of this propublica story, brett murphy. welcome, brett.n, you are the man with the scoops here. i want to start with one of justice thomas's benefactors. his name is david so cool, and he said in a statement to you that a, quote, fair and accurate reporting would require you to investigate all nine justices with the same depth and bigger and then as the come paramilitary of their friendships and travel habits and related activities. and quote. brett, what is your response to that assertion from one of justice thomas's donors? >> well we have been. we have been chasing down every credible type that we have received. and what we can do as journalists just go over the elements, it takes us -- i understand the criticism, all i can say is that we are gonna continue reporting, continue reporting and all the justices. and going wherever the evidence takes us. so we can do. >> some of that reporting details fund-raisers, let me get this right. -- supreme court by this nonprofit, horror shiro -- algerian association, horacio, part of, meghan say th

brett: he did not. that is what the ethics experts told us is the big concern here.bound, as all justices are, to disclose most gifts. and the ones we have reported on, many of them, would not be falling into the personal hospitality exemption that some of your viewers may have heard about before. things like private plane rides, yacht cruises, expensive sports tickets, that is not personal hospitality. john: there is so much focus right now on the justices activities outside of the court will then. earlier this year there were questions raised about justice so to motor your apparently -- how does what justice thomas did compare with his colleagues? brett: we have been actively pursuing all of the credible leads and tips on all the justices. we continue to report on all of them. what we know right now is justice thomas is an extreme outlier. he reporting to former federal judges including those who sat on the judicial committee that reviews disclosures. and jeremy vogel told us that he has never seen anything like this before and thought it was unprecedented for both

attorney brett tolman your assessment of third indictment against trump. >> thanks for having me one i read the indictment a couple times, you know i have been in the grand jury hundreds of times prepared you know, affidavits testimony indictments i read this i was stunned. i mean this reads exactly how you would if you were politically motivated bins charging document drafted something else that articulated the current state we have indictment against free speech legal theories, campus coconspirators six of them four attorneys that advised 2 defendant in this indictment, one political consultant one member if department of justice as soundsing to those of us police department drafted worked in same tren offees watch listen to individual, outrageous indictment. >> seem clear would go to sprooment if need be they wanted to get donald trump in a d.c. jury, in front of a dutchc jury, because a lot of questions you souredr surrounded last indictment going to play out in florida many said hard to get 12 jurors to agree to convict maybe not so tough to do so in washington, built i am tryin

tim and brett, stay with us. great analysis.oining me now tom cotton sits on the senate intel committee. senator, obviously you are also a lawyer. your reaction tonight? i will a chance to read through this diatribe of an indictment. but your thoughts? >> >> well, laura, i think your word diatribe is well-put. i have only had a chance to skim through it. something like you would get from an msnbc producer for a special on that channel. these are all constitutionally protected activities in which former president trump engaged. political activities and free speech protected by the first amendment you don't have to agree with him. you don't have to think he was right. i don't see how these charges can go forward without a serious constitutional challenge from the former president. i also want to point out that jack smith is an ideological zealot. he charged bob mcdonnell, the former governor of virginia on similar crimes years ago and got a conviction and reversed unanimously at the supreme court because his legal theories were so

getting us to the triple digits in spots like brett would. but then that sea breeze kicks in and that's where the changes start. and i'll break it all down for you. as we go back to you. >> thanks a let's get to the breaking news that we've been covering all morning long, which is the workers in san jose city workers have decided they're going to strike. yeah. so that big announcement during our broadcast this morning came down live at 8.30. we had 40 coffers. will tran effect was there. joins us now with the latest. will. >> they have voted 99%. so only one percent of the 4500 workers that voted voted not to go on strike the other 99% said yes, let's do it. so they are scheduling it for august. 15th, the city of san jose. they are still trying to work out a deal with these workers that encompass jobs like librarians city workers, inspectors, housing inspectors, that airport workers. here's video from the news conference that day had at 8.30 this morning. and yes, we took it live. they brought out all their big guns. the executives from the u

i have to sam delighted to be here with the brett it is a terrific book.ann shamelessly push it it's an incredible yarn and most importantly it is also a nice break on a friday night. i just come from reading the 44 page indictment. let's just s say the thing speas for itself although i recommend you take a read yourself. brett i am reallyo delighted to be a few. your book, lost son in american family secret wars. list the rich book filled with a lot of different subjects about russia, it's about ukraine, it's about the fbi. it is about a detective story. it is about one sort of lost soul. this character and i think we should start with the human piece of it. people are arty interested to ao peel back the curtain a little bit and what we journalists do. you are clearly a fearsome investigative reporter. and w yet in some ways it must'e been this personal story of this young man that captured your attention. tell us why billy riley and wyatt told the story? >> first of all thank you for graciouslyly hosting this event. and to politics f and prose for doing

brett, starting with you, thank you so much for that piece.broke the law by not disclosing many of the trips and gifts. can you just talk about that very quickly? what that law is? why does it make certain gifts more important to disclose than others? >> yes, so, it is the ethics and government act, charles. it was passed after watergate. and it pretty much says that government officials, most government officials, including the justices, have to disclose on their yearly financial reports. most gifts that they received, now, there are some exemptions. but those exemptions do not cover things like private plane travel, yacht cruises, expensive sports tickets. the ethics experts we spoke with, including some former federal judges, said that by not disclosing the fact that he accepted those gifts, those are the violations of the ethics and government act. >> just to be clear, again, we are not just talking about clarence thomas. and this is not something that breaks down along conservative or liberal ideology in terms of the judges. we know for e

brett tolman, thank you, sir. >> yes, sir.tuart: both 2024 front runners facing multiple investigations. mark meredith at the white house are joining us. do voters show interest in these investigations? >> stu, they're paying attention to the details coming out drip by drip. good morning to you. reporter: the white house insists that president biden is focusing on his day chop. that's the chopper, not the leaf blower and the president is heading to pennsylvania. sorry about the noise. he's not talking about hiss son, hunter biden, and the scandals involved and talking about the polls and fox asking registered voters how they feel about the investigations into the first son. 50% of people say they do think something improper happened and those numbers are up quite sharply from earlier this year. last month federal prosecutors and hunter's lawyers were shocked after a federal judge threw out a plea agreement, which would have kept the first son out of jail. now that we've got a special council appointed, this probe could drag on

and we have coming up, we'll talk to brett baier, we'll talk to neil cavuto. we'll talk to andy mccarthy later this hour. also joining us, jonathan turley, congressman jim jordan weighs in. we've got a lot going on here today because we now have this transcript from what devin archer actually told the oversight committee. and now president joe biden about the about their interactions with hunter and his business partners. wow. this is fascinating as well. so they will be here in moments. don't go anywhere. lots going on in the story. you have been watching fox news coverage of this breaking news at this hour . former president donald trump arrived arriving at reagan national airport, now making his way in a motorcade driving about 20 minutes to the d.c. federal courthouse where we expect him to be brought through in a garage possibly. we will not see the former president, but a judge wi we are told, will be taken, but then he will enter a courtroom and speak in front of a federal magistrate. he will plead not guilty, we are told, to the four counts against him

i guess brett baer is with us, mr brett. great to have you. you know, one of the things i'm thinking about here, and i know a lot of conservatives and details from the court. yeah i don't know. blanket here. brett baer can hear me. um and this deserves this goes to the heart of what is going on in the house judiciary committee, and this goes to the heart of what's going on in the house oversight and accountability committee. you know, we have a media almost blackout that joe biden as candidate joe biden as as president. repeatedly said he never spoke to his son, his brother or anybody, for that matter about the foreign business dealings that then evolved into about a month ago, a little less than a month ago, as we've been saying joe biden was never in business with with his son, which is involved, too into joe biden never met with his son's business partners. we know that's not true. we know about cafe milano and the russian oligarch, former first lady of moscow, among others. we know that joe biden said the family didn't get money from china

and so many companies go public, as if it's the end but if you heard brett yesterday, what he said wasing. in some ways, i think of a public offering like a wedding it's a celebration, yes, but it's really the beginning of the marriage and what cava is engaged in is a marriage with public investors and that means we have to deal with that relationship in the right way. and that's what you're seeing from cava. and one can hope that's what we continue to see from cava. it's been a shock to the industry, obviously, covid how do you think the restaurant business has changed, post-covid >> ultimately, at the highest level, i don't think it does change the second-oldest profession people have been serving food to other people forever and what consumers want, they want interesting and intriguing flavors, food that excites them, people that care, they want humanity and environments. and in many ways, that's basically -- people say to me, you know, what ist this all about? it isn't very hard to make a sandwich or bowl it's hard to execute it consistently and now in the 225, 230 stores we have,

sean: brett, we'll give you the last word on this. is america now looking at a joe biden -- a real joe biden bribery money laundering scandal allegation? is that what we're looking at here? >> the great irony is if you want to talk about rico investigation and i'd be happy to open and be overwhelmed and justify as a rico investigation. making statements about an election. companies in order to avoid tracking with suspicious activity and continuous reports and bank accounts and laundering and individuals that are part of the conspiracy and in front of the grand jury and it's justified under the statute. sean: see if we ever get to lady justice being behind and equal justice under the law and equal application of the law. it's going to be a very interesting period in history. we appreciate it. this friday night as we continue allegations of corruption against joe biden are so egregious, some on the left are turning on him. judge, jeanine piro weighing in straight ahead as we continue this special edition of hannity. ♪ the official provi

president trump here nominates brett kavanaugh. to replace anthony kennedy. and that's a big deal because kennedy had always been the key swing vote. so this was really gonna change the balance of the court. i thank president trump for the honor of this nomination. the hearings seemed to be going just fine, and it doesn't look like there's any way for the democrats to stop it. [john] we're about to hear some of the most high-stakes congressional testimony in decades. the senate judiciary committee is about to question christine blasey ford. suddenly, we find out that there were allegations that he had sexually assaulted christine blasey ford when he was in high school, which he denied. the details about that night that bring me here today are the ones i will never forget. [chris] donald trump was watching it and was very shaken by her testimony, thought it was pretty credible. and the word went back from the white house to the people up on capitol hill with brett kavanaugh. if you wanna save your nomination, you're gonna have to fi

let's bring in brett velicovich, a fox news contributor. good to have you with us.nks for being here. i'm curious about your thoughts on this. i find it interesting in trey's report to see those people laying roses for yevgeny prigozhin, that there was affection for him in russia even though he tried to mount a coup against vladimir putin, his former friend. >> martha, he was seen as a hero in some of these russian circles. the fact is he made a lot of enemies. people saw this coming. it's incredibly clear, this is a deliberate act. just from the public footage alone, you can see how the plane descended with a destroyed wing. you had local eye witnesses hearing some sort of explosion in the air. likely some sabotage on board, this particular aircraft was a well-known method for his travel inside russia. this was likely some sort of payback for prigozhin and his wagner group storming moscow. when he did this, he became a threat to putin's rule. he was a target. the phrase don't bite the hand that feeds you is applicable here. he won't go on the front line and call ou

brett velicovich, you know what you're talking about. thanks for being with us.ee you soon. >> thank you, stu. stuart: on the markets, dow down 20 and nasdaq down 70 and s&p down 17 points. look at american airlines. the pilot's union says it is board approved a new contract deal, pilots vote to radford fio the deal one way or the other august the 7. look at meta. interesting. i'm not sure i understand it and the developing different ai programs with different personalities. these personalities range from a surfer ai who offers travel recommendations to ai personality that speaks like abraham lincoln. how do you make money out of that? i'm eager to know. you're schwabing your head -- shaking your head. >> they want to make money from the meta verse and now see it like the ai and like everything else, it becomes shot people are going to go things like this where they're going to try to put personalities on the technology and it'll go too far. stuart: what do you have, lauren? anything? lauren: nope. stuart: okay. leave it there. some olekowskiations are opposed to

brett shulman, ceo, cofounder of the cava group. thank you so much, brett the, appreciate it. from now, 3 1/2 minutes. we know the dow, s&p, nasdaq on pace for a second down day in a row. there you have it the nasdaq off 150 points. we have been hearing traders on the show pronounce cash is king. our "countdown closer" says there is a way to crown your cash investments. isn't that clever? we have meghan hornman. cash is king, i get that. what kind of money market do you look at to get the most out of that money, that cash? >> you don't really have to take any risk in the money markets or even using like a sweep account at your investment firm. the money markets are giving you a little bit more yield. you're not taking on anymore risk there they're offering five, upward percent yield. i don't see any reason at this point with the market the way it is, it is facing technical challenges, it is facing seasonality challenges and i think it is facing fundamental challenges. you need to be aggressive here. park the money in cash. have the dry powder. wait for pullbacks we think will

and for more on how this all happens, we're joined by brett helms.of organic and macromolecular synthesis at livermore labs. brett, thank you for the time today to help us understand what this all means. first off, explain the process here. how did you and your colleagues use e coli to create the raw materials for bio renewable plastics? yes so you're probably aware that we make about 400 million metric tons of plastics every year, and these are mostly from petrochemicals in the us, we recycle about 5% of those plastics because plastics recycling is both difficult and expensive. the bonds that make up the plastics really hard to break. so at berkeley lab and uc berkeley, we cracked the genetic code to trick bacteria like e coli to turn sugar and other renewable carb sources into the building blocks for new plastics that are easier and cheaper to recycle. as you mentioned, these plastics are called poly amines or pdx. we think that about 10% of all plastics can be replaced with pvcs, where we would look to use them in things like mattresses, furniture

we do on the political home page have a very deep, inside look into brett o'donnell the so-called debateard who has been prepping desantis. whether prep decides to be on stage or not his shadow will loom large over the debate stage even if he doesn't do counterprograming as he may be planning. desantis has to get a sound bite up there. he has to get a momentum. it is not about the sbunt or issues as much as it should be, but getting a moment that can compel him forward that his team can put out on social media, can put into ads, that makes him stand out and makes him look again like a serious contender. >> you mentioned the piece on brett o'donnell, one quote from ward baker a very well known long serving gop adviser quote he is william shakespeare and vince lombardi rolled into one not to set expectations too high. one of the things especially out of the desantis super pac release of the memo is where chris christie land on all of this. we spoke to him this morning on "cnn this morning." listen to his debate prep. >> i'll listen to the questions, answer them directly and honestly, and i

i think for both of us, brett and i have been talking about the debate a lot over the past couple weeksnd with some people that we done interviews with both of us see ourselves as moderators. the night is not about us, the night is about the future of the country and how the republican party will choose the nominee and the focus really needs to be on the candidates, our job is to draw out of them in the most concise and challenging way, how they would deal with the very serious issues that confront the country. i saw a number this morning, 76% of independent voters who are the people that you know decide elections believe that the country is headed in the wrong direction, that is a huge number, there are significant issues. it's not about me or brett we hope to be seeing the next day, the goal to be a good facilitator, it challenging question, fair moderator and get out of the way. trey: if you are your self you'll be seen as all of that because that's all you've ever been, i can't think of anyone better to do this, the only thing i worry about, you have two candidates from south caroli

losing and just about the crew is now that penalty as we so only cross the line by you know, a has brett's. and for anyone who is watching that life for anyone who's just sports that report and was having trouble working out exactly what was going on, let me show you. it was just the same in the stadium. it wasn't until the sweetest play erupt, didn't set abrasions that we were setting. okay, the rest giving it a sweet and all through an even the play is on the page for, for a long time. had little idea of what was going on now off to the game, we were able to speak to a couple of those players. so we're going to hear from fidelity in a row for the swedish pi a who stepped top and smashed home countries 1st penalty in the shootout and also from megan, repeat, know, for whom tonight was her last ever game in world cup football and for whom of course with that penalty miss it ended so tragically. it is what they had to say about the shootout that was nervous. i was so nervous i couldn't watch the the last penalty. it was too tough. i had no idea it was so hard to see from my end goal. so i w

not in a federal court is brett baer said. that's you know, that's a different scenario for the president. i think this is going to be a very tough set. circumstances in in a very tough part, but again, i just really does bother me the way this happens. this is not the way they treat anybody else doing this in primetime is just fundamentally wrong. yeah. timing. same question. yeah, and again and it was, jason said. we're still awaiting a lot of this, but you know, it doesn't help the thoughts of the american people when you have something go up and they say, oh, that was fictitious. and then you know, we have this waiting game here. it doesn't instill a whole lot of confidence in the american people that all of this is above board, and it's being handled appropriately. whether it is or not. we don't know. but when you put out things and you get people speculating early in the day, and then you have this dog and pony show you have, as jason said, lights, camera action here. american people are looking at this and we're waiting

brett wants to know as president, what steps would you take to lower gas and food prices?ayor suarez: you guys are not convinced about bidenomics yet? i define bidenomics as the poor to poor. your purchasing power goes down, your dollars worth less money and if you want to borrow money, it is more expensive. i do not understand how that benefits the poor. whatever economist he is using i would fire. whatever branding person there -- they are using, would fire. we need to balance our budget. we cannot live as a u.s. government any different from how its people live. when i first got elected, we had a 20% expenses over income budget. we balance it in one year. was it easy? absolutely not. i had employees that did not shake my hand for two years. it was tough. but now that they see the double digit growth, now that we have the highest reserves in history, we were upgraded to the highest rating ever come on now our employee said this guy was on to something. she understands how the economy works. i have public sector experience, but i also have private sector experience. if yo

to stop his vote for confirmation, you could just say i have it on authority that brett kavanaugh not only did the things we know about but he did things 10 times worse and he persuades them all to use his power, to use their constitutional powers. and that senator just made it up, is that not what fanni willis is accusing trap of doing? this is something that happens in politics. if that is true, can trump be charged? i am glad that penn state listen to him, but that does not mean what trump said was illegal. can we really call fraud what the trump campaign did with these electors? john m: rudy giuliani, you said he made statements that he knew were not true. if you knew they were not true and you could prove he knew he was lying and under oath, that could subject them to perjury. even if you suspect something is not true but you had some evidence or of people told you what you have something you can hang your hat on, that is not perjury. you had your example of the senator. if you started charging politicians for lying, you clean up congress. the soul called -- the so-called conting

brett, thank you for taking us through it. time. >> dana: behind the glamour lies a darker reality in hollywood. the homeless crisis is escalating. tens of thousands of people are living on the streets in tinsel town and the city of los angeles. kelly o'grady with the very grim numbers this morning. hi, kelly. >> hi, dana. that's right. about a third of the u.s. homeless population lives here in los angeles. before i show you where i'm at today i want to jump into those numbers. at the last count that was released this summer 46,000 people were homeless in the city, 76,000 in the county on any given night. that's close to a 10% increase versus last year. admittedly the count was in february. residents are dealing with something like this for years. you can see the camp i'm at behind me. you don't see things like this just in bad areas. this is in hollywood and near schools. legally they can't be forced to move. when they do move along they'll pop back up. i talked to a resident and local activist saying l.a.'s policies encoura

and there's something that is really bothering me they came upon the show yesterday, navy captain brett warned about equity and inclusion infiltrating in the military. it is astonishing. >> marxist-leninist ideology that is wrapped in the di nomenclature. it is detached in the common czars that are enforcing this. you have naval instructions that direct every command down to fighting units that have a di agent this is akin to political common czars. stuart: that is extraordinary stuff not since the soviet union a political common czars attached to battle groups dictating action. that is out of bounds you cannot have that. >> i'm not sure that's what the military calls it they called it an additional duty, in my unit of voting assistance officer where i help guys vote because the deployment happened to be during election time. officers get the assignments. this is insidious and obvious, think about it and major corporations who ends up dictating who gets fired and hired and what happens and what does it. the hr department informed by diversity, equity and inclusion recommendation. they s
