today, as edward lawrence noted fed head j. powell remindings that you central bank will continue to reduce its holding of treasury bonds and mo mortgage-backed security, so far fed has taken about 1 trillion dollars out of high powers money supply over the past year, but if powell and company are to be believed they will take at least another trillion out of the money supply, which leads to the question, who is going to buy the 1.6 trillion in new bonds? so, uncle joe biden can keep spending his keister off if people do buy, and spend he will, like he has a pass for year, now foreign aid with a big dollop of emergency spending in areas with no emergency, a battle between guns and b butter. biden is choosing both. like lyndon johnson did, he bblew up the budget and inflation rate by spending hefy in vietnam and freights so -- great society, now biden is blowing up the budget with israel, which i favor, but also on ukraine it needs a mission statement, exit strategy and a long conversation, and mr. biden has peanuts for more bab

let's bring in fox business correspondent edward lawrence on the fed.dward you're not swampy but you're covering the beat. what exactly in plain english if such a thing is possible what did the federal reserve tell us today? >> reporter: yeah, basically i live in the swamp though, i can tell you that, and it does get hot over the summer. the fed chairman saying he basically believes inflation has moderated. he also feels better about the chances inflation will come back down but the fed chairman told me that he doesn't see inflation into the mid twos as a percentage until the end of next year. then it won't be to the fed's target until sometime in 2025. now i think it is important to hear my full exchange with the fed chairman why inflation remains elevated for how long as the fed decided to pause this time. listen. with no rate increase today how long would you be okay with a 3% or 3% plus overall inflation? >> you know the progress is probably going to come in with lumps and be bumpy and we'll making progress report you said in the past that the cost

let's begin fox business corresponded edward lawrence, you are not swampy but you're covering the deep, and plain language what did the federal reserve chair tell us today. >> i live in the swamp and it does get hot over the summer. the fed chairman saying he believes inflation is moderated and feels better about the chances that inflation will come back down. the fed chairman said he doesn't see inflation into the mid to the percentage until the end of next year and that it will be the target until sometime in 2025. i think it's important to hear the full exchange about why inflation remains elevated for how long as the fed decided to pause this time. listen. >> would know rate increase today how long would you be okay with a 3% or 3% plus overall inflation. >> the progress is probably going to come in lumps and be bumpy but were making progress. >> you said in the past doing too little could m take years to fix but the cost of doing too much could be easily fixed, how robust was the debate about this pause on the doing too little sites. >> that's always the question we are asking our

so let's go straight to our very own edward lawrence who was there with all the details. ward, what's cooking? >> reporter: hey, larry, they pick ad really nice spot, just actually south of san francisco. that meeting is still going on. this is the first time president biden and president xi have sat down face-to-face in almost exactly one year and the message is still the same. the president wanting to assure the chinese he wants competition, not conflict. for president biden, this was a big reason he came to the apex summit in san francisco and this is what we heard. president biden: but our meetings have always been candid, straightforward and useful. never doubted what you've told me in terms of your candid which you speak. a critical global challenges we face from climate change to counter narcotics to artificial intelligence demand our joint efforts. so i look forward to beginning this discussion. >> reporter: so in about three hours we will get a chance to ask president biden about his conversation. for president xi the meeting was a chance to size up his counterpar

edward lawrence in san fran. former nba player, enes kanter freedom your reaction to edward lawrence's report. >> i want to talk about san francisco first. the homeless population, san francisco is finally clean and it only took xi jinping to do it. the government can fix our cities overnight but they don't want to. it's amazing what our government will do china but not for its citizens. so biden and xi jinping, i just want to say that if biden is going to hold xi jinping accoung accountable for chinese spy balloon, covid crisis, other ways china has threatened america's security and if biden leaves the meeting without holding xi jinping accountable on any of those things it would be an embarrassment for our country and another win for xi jinping. it's obvious that biden caves to the ccp. so there's no justification for sidelining american values and putting the interest of xi jinping and the ccp first. maria: you fought back against the nba's support for china, the nike support for china, and xi jinping is telli

edward lawrence.think they're looking for clarity and frankly we've gotten the clarity, okay. i mean, they've been stealing intellectual property for years. and they're obviously not going to stop and the president of china was very clear, he said it could result in misguided action, unwanted results, like a surveillance balloon going across your country, taking back secrets to china, like a police station in your country. >> he's sending a warning to u.s. officials in this entire address. the thing to keep in mind here is that no matter china says when it comes to doing business with the united states, no matter how many gifts it gives u.s. business leaders for continuing to send their companies to china, the fact is that china has been very, very clear about its intentions toward the united states. its ultimate goal is to supplant the u.s. as the dominant world super power. they've been very upfront about this, not trying to keep it a secret. for xi to come here and pre alld all is well, and continu

larry: now we run off to fox business's edward lawrence live at the white house. ward, opec plus announces cuts of another million barrels a day. what is up with that? >> reporter: yeah, and before we get to that i want to tell you, what laura talked about, the best hair debate going on, i don't know, that could be the best hair debate going on but yes, opec plus, you mentioned it. one million barrels a day. they did a couple things. two of them, one, that extension, adding one million barrels a day, cutting it back, off of the production. they're also saudi arabia decided to add, extend its one million barrel-a-day cut for next year. so in essence, two million barrels a day being cut, that in essence will keep oil prices more elevated than they are right now. the white house is downplaying so far that decision coming in today by opec. in fact last monday, nsc spokesperson john kirby said they're concerned about energy transition, not about opec. listen. >> the president will keep focusing as he has been on a healthy global market that is properly balanced, that ca

edward lawrence, thanks for the great reporting. edward, be safe. you're in the white house area, be safe. very tricky business. let me weigh in on this in a moment. after iran terrorist proxies launched over 40 attacks on u.s. military assets last night the u.s. responded again with two f-15 fighter jets dropping several bombs on a weapons storage facility in eastern syria. no terrorists were there, so no terrorists were killed. now then, this is important to me at least, according to reports right after our response iran-barked terrorists mounted four more attacks on u.s. bases, three in syria and one in iraq, which brought the total now to 46 attacks by iran-backed proxies. three u.s. servicemembers suffered minor injuries and are now gratefully back to duty. this is after the houthis last night downed an american mq 9 reaper drone near yemen. so, so the biden administration lob ad couple more missiles at an unmanned ammo depot someplace in the middle of syria. iran hits back with four more attacks and the biden administration did nothing, nothin

thank you, edward lawrence, terrific stuff.ll right, folks we'll talk to senator ted cruz about all this in just a few minutes and then former u.s. ambassador to israel david friedman is going to come on the show and talk some more about it with us as well. let me weigh in with my riff. all of sudden our reporters are terrific, they are the no the problem. the problem is what is going on in the press room from the podium. seems like israel's so-called best friend are spending their time attacking the jewish state or if not attacking certainly criticizing the jewish state. this is in the middle of a war for israel's very survival and i think it is utter nonsense, completely unhelpful. now here is a "washington post" headline, and i will quote, israeli troops fight in the heart of gaza city amid global calls for pause. everybody wants a pause, don't they. everybody talks pause. that is except israel. because the idf is getting the job done. that's the key. aaron cohen will be on in a few minutes. the job being to annihilate hamas

. >> now turn to edward lawrence at the white house. edward another one of these weird double speak press conferences, what can you tell us today? reporter: well, i can tell you within the last 15 or 20 minutes a source with knowledge of the discussions tells fox news that there is negotiation between u.s., israel and qatar for up to 3 day pause to get hostages out and any humanitarian aid in, the discusses are on going, nothing has been firmed up. white house would not confirm the length of the paused but did confirm the pressure campaign. >> i can't confirm the reports, i can confirm that in almost every conversation that we're having with the israelis right now we're talking about the benefit of humanitarian pauseds, i would remind there are and has been a couple of small humanitarian pauses to allow people to get out, including small number of hostages who have been released, this is note a new idea, but we believe it should continue to be pursued. reporter: during the terrorist attack on israel last month, hamas took about 240 peopl

larry: thank you edward lawrence, got it thank you very much rail infrastructure. joining me now, great pleasure our friend bret baier. he has two books out, not one but two. a very special thing. author of the to rescue the constitution, george washington and fragile american experiment. and his new children a book. the history club. that is due across time, shelves november 14, i want to read them both, might have to go to kids book first. we'll sell as many bookin books for our friend bret baier. talk to us if you would for a moment, your impressions, this is antony blinken's henry kissinger's best imitation of shuttle diplomacy, but the question, in a serious matter, what is he accomplishing? is he telling people he can do things we can't do and not telling people be he needs to do one thing he must do. >> good afternoon, i think it tough to walk through the tulips for this administration, they can say in the beginning with clarity they stand by israel, israel says we have to go after hamas after what happened on october 7. a humanitarian pause does no favors t

let's go to our own very own edward lawrence who is there with all of the details what's cooking? reporter: larry, they picked a nice spot south of san francisco, that meeting is still going on, this is the first time president biden and president xi jinping sat down face-to-face in almost a year, the message is same, president assuring chinese that he wants competition not conflict and for president biden this was a big reason he came to the apec summit. >> our meetings have been candid, straight forward and useful, never doubted what you told me. and critical goal of whic challenges we face from climate change and counter narcotics and artificial intelligence. i look forward to beginning this discussion. reporter: in about 3 hours, we will get a chance to ask president biden about his conversation. for president xi jinping the meeting was a chance to size up his counter part, china agreed to crackdown on companies making and exporting fentanyl, u.s. will ease sanctions on chinese forensic police institutes in exchange. >> i think we have achieved, the proof will be in the puddin

edward lawrence is live with more. orter: and the white house is saying that stable communication with the chinese to manage competition will be a deliverable out of this meeting. we've heard cabinet level voices over the past few weeks lower the expectations for this meeting that u.s. would be tough on china related to things confronting the chinese leader for bad behavior that they're doing. the chinese stealing intellectual property, they hacked the u.s. and have moved closer to russia and iran. >> do you see-does the president see the new axis of evil, russia, iran and china. >> the president is not slapping bumper stickers on axes of evil. what he's concerned about is making sure we can protect and defend our national security interest around the world and that includes in the indo-pacific. we're not slapping bumper stickers on countries. we know russia presents an acute threat on the european continent. we know china represents a extra competitive challenge. >> reporter: for chinese president xi the meeting with p

[applause] folks, there's a practical reason for that. when the middle class does well, the poor have a way up, and the wealthy still do very well. >> reporter: what he places -- glosses other is that that cpi is up 17.7% from the month president biden came into office. that inflation eating up wage gains from the month to president came into office. that inflation keeping the fed chairman watching the data. he says he sees inflation moderating, but there's still uncertainty around the globe as inflation run running well above his 2% target. with no rate
