edward lawrence just reported it, we're looking into what they want. tree equity.ctric cars for all government workers. stretching to the breaking point the term children in order to let people who are not family relatives take the child tax credit, really? >> yeah. this is unbelievably enormous bill. also has tremendous scope. there is everything under the sun in this ranging from education to social safety net, to taxes, to energy. and they are not proud of their work. all right? we saw the house budget committee do the markup on a saturday night virtually, so they didn't get together to do it and they didn't have one cbo cost estimate. no one wants to talk about the price tag here because they really don't even know what it is. elizabeth: you know, douglas, we may find out also whether democrats will raise our taxes on a gigantic scale with only their votes via budget reconciliation. we said it time and again. it is unconstitutional. it is taxation without representation, when you knock out republican voting that is half the country. irs getting more money to do

lauren: edward lawrence thank you. bring in former state department official christian whiton. christian, you heard the president speaking yesterday on withdrawing from afghanistan and why and you heard edward lawrence reporting the bilat today with the president of ukraine. put it together for us, what are your thoughts on this? >> well it's very provocative weakness in the sense that, as you point out this is being watched not just in central asia but in beijing, in moscow, pongyang, especially tehran. yesterday we saw the president later in the speech sort of said responsibility with him as president, but before that blamed three different groups of people. he blamed the former afghan government. he blamed americans for not getting out despite state department warnings. this is at the same time where our intelligence bureaucracy was saying that government would last at least two years. they later cut the number. of course blaming the trump administration. so, you see this you know, i think realization that you have

with edward lawrence. reporter: federal reserve will leave rates unchanged however the dot plot shows something very interesting. at least one rate hike next year. then it shows possibly three more rate hikes in 2023 to get the federal funds rate to 1%. the federal reserve will keep buying $1,820,000,000,000 a month of treasurys and mortgage-backed securities, however the statement says if progress continues broadly as expect the the committee judge as moderation in the pace of asset purchases may soon be warranted. the statement also says the sectors most adversely affected by the pandemic have seen improvement in recent months but the rise in covid-19 cases has slowed their recovery. the fed sees inflation as elevated but largely reflecting transitory factors. the federal reserve raising pc inflation to 4.2% this year, dropping to 2.2% next year. the fed sees core pce going to 3.7%, then back to 2.3% in 2022. the federal reserve is still saying it will use its full range of tools to support the economy.

edward lawrence, thank you for the live report. i appreciate it. we have some breaking news what a difference a day makes markets are in recovery mode picking up steam and the session after jerome powell caused a short selloff around noon you solid live on the air today speaking at an event, he said the fed would raise rates if it's all higher prices pushing up inflation expectations, we've been talking about inflation for some time now but later on he gave a timeline that was in line with what investors were expecting. >> raising interest rates is a ways off because we have a substantially higher test but about half of the frc thinks it will be met by the end of next year and eight of the nine remaining members believe it will be met in 2023. >> expectations are likely to keep treasury yields higher this year end on top of all of this you have reports that massive chinese real estate developer evergreen and is set to miss a second offshore bond payment this month to the tune of $47.5 million, there is more we also have a run up in commodity prices

bills but our edward lawrence has done it. democratic lawmakers trying to sneak in a massive increase in fines to businesses that violate the federal vaccine mandates. edward joins us now with a deeper dive into all of this. edward. reporter: little itty bitty print here. we're talking about a fine increase of 415% in some cases. so osha fines would go up. it could be a financial windfall for osha. now if the governing body gets the rec -- reconciliation bill through, they often said the current fine of 13,600 is not big enough. if the reconciliation goes through osha fines for serious violations would go up to$0,000 per incident. for repeat violations the fine would be $700,000. that means a company violating vaccine mandate could pay a fine of set ofty thousand -- $70,000 per incident. they have written fines of about $4 million f the reconciliation bill were law today, osha possibly stood to get $21 million from the same violations. critics worry the larger fines could allow osha to be the judge and jury to force small busi

neil: edward lawrence, thank you.ren't keen on a lot of the measures the speaker seems to be taking, sort of a balance of the moderates and progressives within their congress, but fellow democrats worried about where it's going particularly the former white house chief of staff under bill clinton listen to this. >> time is up. it's time to do both of these bills. they have to be done together. they have to move it forward and find a number. it will be lower than 3.5 trillion. they have to settle on a number and then find an honorable compromise about what's included in there . it's politically catastrophic if we don't move forward with these bills at this time. neil: the key mentioned there from him is the number a lot lower than the three and a half trillion, i don't know what the number is they are looking out or mansion and some other democratic senators have been mentioning something that would be substantially less. former obama economic council chair, good to see you. what seems to be saying is you want both pas

edward lawrence at white house. edward.ter: the administration juggling possible economic crisis here. treasury secretary janet yellen notified congress there could be a widespread economic catastrophe if the the debt ceig is not raised or suspended in some way. looks like the default date is the sometime end of october. they don't have an act date as payments go in and out. the market is not looking at that what they are looking at the evergrande group with the payment due on thursday. $89 billion in interest payments are due on thursday. it is clear the company cannot make the payment without help. it is unclear if the chinese government will step in. it is also unclear how much exposure western banks have in the $300 billion of liabilities the company has outstanding that is the uncertainty there. the treasury secretary is watching effects on the banking system and markets if there is one this week. you also have morgan stanley saying there is growing evidence that the economy is slowing as consumer confidence has starte

edward lawrence joins us live at the white house with a full recap. edward? reporter: lauren this was a speech about justifying the president's policies going forward, why we need to tax wealthy americans why we need to tax big corporations, why there needs to be vaccine mandate, now the president making the case that we can't revert to the way it was before the pandemic. he says he wants to include everyone in the economy going forward. he says if this is an inflection point, we need to push through his $3.5 trillion spending package, to keep the economic engine going, for the years to come. listen. >> corporations super wealthy have to start paying their fair share of taxes. it's long overdue. i'm not out to punish anyone, i'm a capitalist. if you can make a million or a billion dollars that's great. god bless you. all i'm asking is you pay your fair share. reporter: however he did not mention this study by the federal reserve, which showed under the previous administration, minority wages and median wealth grew faster than white americans, the federal rese

edward lawrence is at the white house with more. good to see you, edward.ter: liz, there is a lot of moving parts with this. let's start with one of latest. about 90 minutes ago, senator chuck schumer and house speaker nancy pelosi were here at the white house talking about all the issues that were going on. last minute drama, the house did a little while ago, within the last 15, 20 minutes, pass a bill to suspend the did not ceiling until december 16th of 2022. house speaker nancy pelosi before that vote used some harsh language. listen. >> we cannot predicate our actions in the house on what could happen in the senate. we can't when we coming to agreement on a bill, but in terms of this, i have no patience for people not voting for this. reporter: there were a few moderate democrats waivering over this vote that could open the door for of the larger social infrastructure package. two democrats actually voting against it. so the house speaker says the vote for the bipartisan infrastructure bill could happen tomorrow, but adding late today she is not sticki

edward lawrence has more. from washington. iz, small to medium-sized business owners are starting to grumble about this vaccine mandate the president wants to do and a rule through osha jerry acres owns 38 great clips locations, he is against mandates because it wouldut put undue burden on his business. >> you know, we've had to pay for so many things, the enhanced, you know, cleaning of the stores and is those kinds of things, masks and, you know, the list goes on and on here. i said now potentially we've got to pay for these tests, and i can tell you we'll have probably half of our staff that's not interested in vaccines. so the cost just gets exorbitant, and small business has to pass that along to its customers. >> reporter: he says he's concerned this mandate will cause some of his employees to leave and go to companies that have under 100 employees, and he's already looking for 70 workers just to get back to full staffing. now, the president says this is not about freedom of choice, it's about protecting those around you.

edward lawrence has more from washington. edward? medium size business owners are starting to grumble about this vaccine mandate the president wants to do in a rule through osha. jerry acres owns 36 great clip locations. he is for vaccines but against mandates because it would put undue burden on his business. >> we had to pay for so many things. the enhanced cleaning of the stores, those kind of things, masks, the list goes on and on here. so now potentially we have to pay for these tests i can tell you half of our staff is not interested in vaccines. so the cost gets exorbitant. small business has to pass that along to their customers. the american public will end up paying for that. reporter: he says he is concerned this mandate will cause some of his employees to leave, to go to companies that have under 100 employees. he is looking for 70 workers just to get back to full staffing. now the president says, this is not about freedom of choice. it is about protecting those around but former white house physician turned representativ

to edward lawrence live at the white house with what could come out of this historic face to face and, edward, we have the saber rattling militarily where they buzzed a whole region of the air space near taiwan once again, but we also have the situation where we're looking at china attacking its own businesses, and then you begin to wonder what does that mean for the rest of the world's business chain. >> reporter: yeah. and you know what's interesting is a senior administration official made the huge point to us that and stressed to us that this is not a military alliance. what's happening today, saying the quad is going to be looking at other ways to push back against china. that official telling us that we have had a long, a really long, protracted time of conflicts, and now is the time to double down on diplomacy. that's what we're hearing out of the white house here. the president did not mention china by name in any public comments today or in his u.n. general assembly speech, but behind closed doors you can bet that they're going to talk about china with the leaders or the prim

elizabeth: edward lawrence thank you so much. welcome to the show fox news contributor dr.arty makary, former labor secretary nominee, andy puzder. doctor, plainly a supreme court fight. the public health dictates belong to the states according to the supreme court. that is a century old ruling. do you see this fight forcing osha, to get private sector workers vaccinated? do you think this is headed to the supreme court? >> well it does sound like there is some authority with medicare requiring nursing homes and hospitals as a condition of participation to require vaccinations and maybe with osha. that side of it i'm not as familiar with but i can tell you i believe in vaccines but that speech today framed the issue incorrectly. we don't have a pandemic of the unvaccinated. we have a pandemic of the non-immune. the way natural immunity was never mentioned once, despite maybe a third or half of those unvaccinated that is something we got to recognize is 27 times more protective in the israeli study. people have a good reason maybe to avoid vaccination especially front line h

to edward lawrence live from the white house. edward, you know, some would argue that the markets are in the middle of a relief rally not because of oil but because the democrat's latest capital gains tax compromise that doesn't come near what president biden wanted. reporter: that and or also it could be senator joe manchin saying over the weekend he could not support the plan as is, because of the amount of spending that is in there, now the president you mentioned on his very first west coast swing as president, he went to boise, idaho where he's at the national inter agency hub, you've got the briefing you're looking there at video of that. this is a hub that coordinates the fires, the tackling the fire s, on the west coast. now, over the past five days, the white house making this trip they announced a new covid plan with vaccine mandates also pushing that spending priority that you've been talking about, trying to get headlines away from afghanistan on the spending plan, look at this. the democrats want to push the corporate

edward lawrence live at the white house, thank you. september is usually the worst time of the year for the stock market. data show since 1928 the month generated an average return of negative .1% with a ratio of only 46% but in the year since 1928 when s&p 500 rose by more than 13% of the first six months the index median september gain was 1.4%. it is up 15% through june and a house that had a pullback of more than 5% so far, could we see the market continue or should investors start to get defensive. let's get right to the floor show teddy weisberg and scott bauer, teddy what do you say? >> as smart investors are always defensive, you always keep an eye and make sure you have a chair sitting with the music stops. but markets love to climb walls and certainly that is plenty to be worried about their as we look forward in the markets are certainly priced to perfection as we speak and i would suggest as long as the fed stays on hold and nothing dramatic really changes we might see some internal sector rotation within the market but i s

jackie: edward lawrence thank you so much for that, joining to discuss former deputy national securityty advisor kt mcfarland, good evening to you and always great to see you. were talking about afghanistan as we left the country and i have the taliban, terrorist trying to form a government here. and you have anthony blinken saying if they want to live up to their obligation. it's really staggering to watch this unfold and the u.s. reaction to it. your. thoughts? >> the more the secretary of state the more he looks like a puppy. we left afghanistan we have no diplomatic presence or we have leverage ever willing to use it but the leverage does not consist of worrying about the international community and what they're going to think of the taliban do you really think the taliban leaders care about going to cocktail party at the un, they don't care about the international community and getting scolded by the secretary of state, they just defeated in their minds a great empire one of the greatest empires in the history of the world the united states. i think it's all reliant onn their goodwi

edward lawrence is more at the white house with more.t of mandates in this plan and i mean look at the list from the man who just passed just-- this past december said he's against mandates as he will use osha to require companies with more than 100 employees to have all workers vaccinated or weekly testing for all federal workers and government contractors must be vaccinated in the next 75 days or possibly lose their jobs or medical workers that work at facilities that receive medicaid will require vaccination. the mandate really affects businesses with the osha rule possibly costing $14,000 and testing will fall on the company. i talked with an osha lawyer today that said there could be problems with the osha rule specifically that osha has to prove it say grave danger that there is grave danger plus that it's truly necessary and the president himself today even said that the administration says a social distancing and masks are working so is there really an emergency mandate that's needed. plus, if you work remotely osha has no jurisd

edward lawrence of fox business joins us tonight from the white house with this story.hier place, the "wall street journal" found documents, internal documents that show it actually made it more angry. the report shows that the new algorithm that facebook had would push more and more divisive content because it was driving engagement which employees worked to change that, the "wall street journal" reports mark zuckerberg resisted some of the changes because it would reduce that user engagement, so tech experts say they don't hold facebook accountable for the division but for being cynical about them. >> i do hold them account for is lying about it. consciously knowing about their effects. creating this do good smoke screen as they they are taking steps to actually make the world and america a better place while, in fact, knowingly doing the opposite and creating this smoke screen that ultimately prevent the public from seeing it. that, i think, is the real case of arguable fraud on the public here. >> now a facebook spokesperson tells me the new algorithm ranks post tha

edward lawrence great reporting as usual. that october 18th deadline that janet yellen seemed to indicate was put up or shut up time to get all of this resolved or we're looking at a government shutdown or worse, let's get the read from chad pergram from capitol hill. chad, what is it about october 18th? reporter: senate republicans last night filibustered a bill to fund the government and suspend the debt ceiling. the government is funded through 11:59:59 p.m. on thursday. this morning as you alluded to, treasury secretary janet yellen said congress must act, must act on the debt ceiling by october 18th. she says treasurys resources would be depleted quickly. she said it is unclear how treasury would pay its bills. this worries senator. >> if we were to go into default basis, would it not be expected that that would cause a lack of faith in the american government's ability to meet its obligations which in all likelihood would result in a interest rate spike? reporter: the gop balked at hiking the debt limit because of all t

edward lawrence has more from the white house. edward?t going on with the united states, around the globe, and president joe biden making a forceful speech to the u.n. general assembly trying to convince other world leaders the u.s. can still lead as well as support its allies. now he does have a hill to climb when asked concerned in the wake of other leaders in canada, united kingdom, germany, asking the u.s. to push the exit deadline from afghanistan, president biden did not, leaving some other countries with some people left in afghanistan. now you have to deal with australia, undermining a contract that was negotiated since 2016, between the australian prime minister and the french. president biden meeting with that australian prime minister within the last hour, france did not come up in the public setting, so critics of the president say his actions don't match words like these. >> we stand, in my view, at an inflection point in history, and i'm here today to share with you how the united states tends to work with partners and allie

we'll go to edward lawrence. >> thank you, michelle. thank you, mr. chairman, for taking the question. so on corporate debt, what happened with evergrande that we've been watching, is that a preview of what could happen with the amount of corporate debt that's out there? in the past you've said you're watching the level of corporate debt, so what's your level of concern right now? and would you consider the evergrande group issue sort of a warning statement? >> about the united states, no. corporate defaults are very low in the united states right now. corporate leverage with built up over the course of the long expansion that ended with the pandemic, we were very concerned in the last year or so -- we were concerned in the last year or so and then i'd say very concerned at the beginning of the pandemic that if you've got a highly leveraged company and your revenue stops for an uncertain period as things happened at the beginning of the crisis, we were very concern that there would be a wave of defaults. didn't happen potentially, to a significant ext

let's go to edward lawrence with more on it. edward?h, you can see investors kind of flat on facebook there but the investigative report by "the wall street journal" found not only did facebook lie to its users about being fair, it also lied to the independent oversight panel the company formed. facebook created an internal program called cross-check. what it actually did was exempt certain users from most of the policies on the platform. we're talking about 5.8 million people. according to documents "the wall street journal" reviewed the program was meant to avoid company embarassment. the documents show facebook was more concerned about looking badly in the eyes of lawmakers or celebrities than being fair. so in a tweet the president of integrity said this. content moderation is imperfect. extra layer of checks for sensitive situations so we don't make mistakes is logical and it does not equate to exempting from rules. still the facebook oversight board released a statement saying it has expressed on multiple occasions its concern abo

neil: thank you, edward lawrence at white house. civil rights attorney who knows legalities of all this, just a very basic, dumb question, does the president have this authority to do this? >> well, neil, good to see you again. that is not a dumb question at all, because sometimes there is no law in place. the law isn't always black and white. make no mistake about it, with this situation, with this pandemic, we don't have an existing law cast by congress dealing with mandated vaccines? so that takes us into a new realm of a valuations since this is so novel. that is, president biden now relying on what you mentioned osha, occupational self, safety and health act t was enacted in 1970. now arguably biden can rely on osha and because there is what is called an emergency provision in osha that allows a president to create a mandate like this, if, people are in grave danger of of a particulate or another matter that might cause them harm. republicans will argue, there is no grave danger here. there is no empirical data for people in gr
