hours, but it does seem like the flights. are picking up. the taliban took control of afghanistan just one week ago, and there are still thousands of afghans and americans trapped. how did you get here? what was the process like of getting to the airport? the airport is was very hard to get in four days. five days i get on the gate. it was very hard to come out here. they need to go by the six who is the first eligible people they need to come. green card. u s passport, and that's a special measures. russian visa third, nobody and that and that wasn't happening. it's not happening that often the distance you'll see. there are planes waiting to take them to safety, but many of them cannot get to safety. that's the big problem happening right now. on the ground in kabul, you have these gates and you've seen the video of the pure chaos outside of this airport. the taliban just feet away from american troops, pushing people back, setting up checkpoints across the city. and now there are. very very serious intelligence reports indicating that isis could target u. s citizens who are trying to make their way to the airport. so you have this very difficult situation, an insurgent group, the taliban, who took over the entire country and got weaponry, machinery and more manpower by freeing their fighters from prisons across the country, and now there are american soldiers on the ground once again, trying to ensure that american citizens and the afghans can be. it's a safety and it really appears like a recipe for disaster because you have weaponry that the taliban now controls. you have not only taliban fighters but also members of al qaeda who were freed from prisons and you have this innocent civilian population trying to desperately get to safety, and it's moving along, but people are frustrated and they want to get out, and they're concerned that if they make it out their family members and their friends who are left behind will be in danger from the taliban. that was trading reporting. defense secretary lloyd austin says the u. s military is doing everything it can to evacuate americans and vulnerable afghans, people that are in the special immigrant visa program are very, very important to us. and these would be the, uh the interpreters and many of the staff that supported our embassy. uh and other embassies by the way. we want to evacuate them as well. secretary austin says the target date for the u. s military to withdraw from afghanistan august 31st could be pushed back depending on how the situation evolves over the coming days and earlier today on warnings on two i spoke with stephen zunes, professor of politics and international studies at usf. he talked about the international community and how they are reacting to the situation in afghanistan. the decision to withdraw itself is not a sign of weakness. i think in the eyes of most of our allies and others, it's a sign of realism that in effect that we without the government was incapable of continuing on its own, and that it was it was asking too much for the united states and other parties to just stay in there indefinitely when they couldn't get their act together than themselves. however professor zuna says, despite whatever support there may be for the withdrawal. he expects that there will be investigations into the administration's handling of the evacuation. all right now to the cal door fire burning out of control southeast of lake tahoe. that fire has now jumped a natural firebreak highway 50 as it continues to spread and move northeast toward tahoe. it's already burned more than 300 structures, and it's at another 13,000 are in its path. ktvu is greg legans has the latest developments on a fire. that is still greg 0% contained. yeah, indeed, frank and cal fire just wrapped up an update within the hour. they say they had a very good day, hitting the fire from the air and are hoping to make a dent in that zero containment number by tomorrow. for now, all evacuation orders and warnings remain in place. so far, the fire has scorched, nearly 100,000 acres leveled more than 300 structures and is now threatening communities that have been evacuated along highway 50. the community of kippers on the northeast side of the calendar, fire and the community of strawberry both along highway 50 are evacuated communities. firefighters are currently working to protect, obviously, with the fire moving in that. northeast direction. those are of high concern for us. um and so i would definitely place those in that high risk of concern. fire crews are also trying to stop further damage into areas of grizzly flats, which has already suffered major property losses. with the fire already having jumped highway 50 near kippers, firefighters say they are working to prevent further northerly spread, while keeping the majority of the fire south of 50. but a crew from idaho says the terrain makes that job a challenge. it's been such a chaotic environment just spread so fast outside of that it's in such remote, rugged terrain that's hard to access. and, um. best strategy at this point is just to try to stay ahead of it. a 40 mile stretch of highway 50 remains closed, meaning no easy southerly connection to and fro to tahoe, and there's no anticipated time of reopening or letting evacuees back in. obviously recognizing that it's a major through fair, major source of commerce. we are putting a lot of resources into trying to control that area of the fire and get 50 reopened. but at this point time, i don't think we can make any projections. favorable humidity with milder temperatures and winds have led to improved firefighting conditions for now. cal fire says 20 choppers are assigned to cal door still, overall resources are stretched thin. the system is as taxed as it's ever been, and our folks on the ground are doing everything they can within their power. now east of the current fire line, there's another major highway 89 fire officials say they are in the process of repositioning their strategy and resources to that area, but have no intention of letting the fire get that far. frank greg, i know they're working as hard as they can. but did they have any idea when they might be able to reopen highway? 50 that is a key stretch of road. indeed it is a very key stretch of roadway. that question was asked by me and other reporters today, and the answer is no. they have no idea just yet, but they're going to wait until it is absolutely safe. all right, greg liggins in our newsroom tonight, greg, thank you. new information from the fire lines of the massive dixie fire that wildfire has prompted new mandatory evacuation orders in remote areas of promos and lasting

julie julie haener and i'm frank somerville we're also learning tonight of at least one death caused by the storm someone was killed in ascension paris in louisiana after a tree fell onto his home that's about one hour's drive east from new orleans. new images are now coming in showing the damage caused by ida along the louisiana coast. take a look at how the storms strong winds ripped off the roof of a hospital in galliano that city is about 70 miles south of new orleans close to where item made landfall there are no reports tonight of damage or injuries caused by this particular incident and now some new video showing how the storm is impacting more than just louisiana you can see storm surge flooding parts of mississippi's coast. these images were recorded in bay st louis the storm surge in mississippi does not compare to areas taking a direct hit from ida. today images coming from us from grand i'll give you an idea of the force of ida's storm surge grand isle sits directly on louisiana's coast just miles from where ida made landfall. surges a problem along a lot of louisiana's coast, these pictures from st bernard parrish give you an idea of how ida pushed water into the city of della crow that's a low lying area. east of new orleans and in new orleans, the heavy rain and wind from earlier today is taking a toll cameras captured images of debris flying around the french quarter this afternoon some buildings there sustained may. major roof damage fox news caroline shively tells us that tonight an estimated one million people are without power, including the entire city of new orleans. hurricane ida was so strong when it made landfall. it actually made the mississippi river flow in reverse right now, those winds are. still ripping through new orleans. the gulf coast rocked sunday by 150 mile per hour winds as hurricane ida came ashore as a category four. louisiana the state that is no stranger to hurricanes now bracing for one of its toughest test yet if you had to draw up. the worst possible path for hurricane in louisiana it would be something very, very close to what we're seeing residents have been warned to shelter in place and stay off the roads as it could be a while before first responders are able to reach those who need help the storm growing in intensity so quickly that new orleans had no time to organize a full evacuation those who have stuck around now have no choice but to ride it out we were slightly blood sided because we can't come out of him and just checking the weather it it sells use that is going to be rain, but didn't say anything about a hurricane hundreds of thousands have already lost power and it could be weeks until it's fully restored the new orleans levee system rebuilt and improved after katrina now faced with holding back a life threatening storm surge will it be tested? yes but it was built for this moment. these winds are only expected to intensify as we head into the overnight hours in new orleans caroline shiebler fox news. ida is taking its time moving through louisiana tonight and our chief meteorologist bill martin is here now with a look at where ida is headed next yeah it's moved through new orleans and it's working its way north and you think okay well, new orleans was out of the bull's eye and in fact they are except without electricity with all the water that's coming down with the wind in the storm surge there are going to be problems and again you know, like we're talking about caroline was mentioning earlier the bowl. how how new orleans is shaped like a bowl like like like a salad bowl or something like yeah, and so everything drains into the middle so a lot of the city is as below sea level or at sea level so we're going to know there's a lot of moving parts so i can tell you the winds got up 250 miles an hour. they got eight inches to a foot of rain storm surge 8 to 10. we that we know all that right but we don't know is all the little moving parts of the families the people of the pets the businesses there. it's just it's just infant testimony so we will know more tomorrow but it's gonna take a while for all this to come out. there's a big storm and it's a big area. category one has been dropped down now. it was a category to about 15 20 minutes ago. it'll fall apart quickly but really, this is going to be about water again it's going to be about the rain lingering it's going to be about the storm surge and the concerns for the levees and some of those overburdened dikes and dams that are built up in that area to keep it dry we can look at the storm reports. it's interesting because this is a hurricane a big time hurricane and you look at this very few storm reports the second guy by words that well, because nobody's reporting there. they're heading for the heels or they're evacuating so you're not seeing a lot of data a lot of good information coming out of these storms so if i go right here i can. i think we have some big wind gust down here just off new orleans groups that are being pulled that up for you you can get it there is no i'll hear this. yeah. so i think we had some pretty good wind gusts right here yes was 62 miles an hour gusts to 90 just to the north and east we had flood some cars stuck in the water but again, not a lot is not a lot, reports. typical storm you would have hundreds and hundreds of these things but people are not in that area so what's happening we don't really know we do know it's a big storm, and we know that we are in a position where we're going to be seeing a lot of, uh of issues tomorrow and for us we're watching the fires and the northern part of the state because this low is coming in we're cooling off. smoke clears out but the fire the red flag warning around the colbert fire um are going to are going to go into effect and they're gonna stay in effect through tomorrow and there's no big concerns for that. so we get back. we'll talk about that. all right?

julie julie haener, and i'm frank somerville. that's a shift since officers are not allowed on the district campuses during school hours, and some parents say they want schools free of police at all times. ktvu zaza smith is in san jose tonight, with more on the heated debate this evening as myth. frank a majority of the people who spoke tonight did not want police at all on school grounds. other families worry about their children's safety. you three voted no to protecting our children. why outrage thursday night directed at san jose unified school board over a decision to remove san jose police officers on campus during the school day. i find it ironic that you have security here tonight to protect all of us if you remove san jose p. from our campus. i will feel extremely uncomfortable and unsafe. a controversial move the school board made six weeks ago to end its school resource officer program. after mounting pressure from community members to reimagine school safety, some families demanding the program be reinstated. that wasn't the case. the issue thursday night whether to have san jose police for school related events. football season is around the corner. we thought it was going to be no police on campus or nothing as of june 24. crystal calhoun is part of the san jose unified equity coalition, a grassroots group made of parents and educators, many of whom spoke and held signs advocating for campuses to be police free all hours of the day, parents calling for change, claiming police officers on campus is traumatizing for students. my eldest son was first interrogated by the police in sixth grade. they urged the board to hire unarmed private security, not cops. someone asked me why not just have security guard? it's nothing against security guards, but my understanding is they don't have the training. they don't have the experience. they don't have the knowledge. in the end, the school board voted to keep its agreement with san jose police until december. 31st officers can be hired to help for special school events. only that did not sit well with everyone talk about is the top talk about the students. stop and after tonight's vote, there were some tense moments between those four and against police on campus outside the board meeting staff will now research what other school districts are doing, and the school board plans to talk about this issue again before december. frank as a smith live horse tonight in san jose, azenith smith. thank you knew at 11 police in richmond are investigating a shooting that left a baby hurt. authorities say a car was shot at on shane drive about five o'clock tonight and a 12 to 16 month old child was hit. the driver took the child, the kaiser hospital in richmond. police say the child is being treated for a through and through bullet wound. luckily, no organs were hit and the child is going to survive. police do not have any information at this time about a suspect. also knew at 11. the mcdonald's on telegraph avenue in oakland, has agreed to a settlement with employees who were told to use coffee filters and dog diapers as face masks during a coronavirus outbreak last year. under the terms of the settlement, the restaurant will be required to follow new workers safety measures. including offering paid sick leave providing proper masks and gloves and conduct and also conduct contact tracing when an employee tests positive for the virus at least 25 workers and their family members became infected with the virus at the telegraph location last spring, including a 10 month old infant. the fda tonight approved using a coronavirus booster shot for some high risk patient groups, but a third shot for people with weakened immune systems is not a done deal. the cdc's vaccine advisory committee is set to meet tomorrow approval would mean third shots could begin immediately. cancer and hiv patients or those who have had organ transplants would be eligible. the number of people getting back to nated here in california continues to go up about 75,000 shots a day are now being administered across the state. that's an increase of more than 4500 per day. compared to this time last week, more than 45 million doses of covid-19 vaccines have now been administered statewide. 64% of californians aged 12 and are now fully vaccinated and 10% more have received at least one dose. san francisco has become the first city in the country to require full vaccination to enter a variety of settings, including bars and restaurants, plus gyms, theaters and entertainment venues. reaction tonight from ktvu deborah villalon in the city, deborah frank of many city businesses are already doing this voluntarily. a week. from tomorrow it becomes a requirement, no shots, no service. today's announcement is really about making sure that people feel a little bit safer in our city. mayor london breed picked a north beach restaurant, one of many serving only the vaccinated to take the idea. eddie wide. how can we not do our part to do better to get vaccinated to make sure we're protecting one another to make sure we're protecting our children? because they can't get vaccinated, starting in a week for customers? vaccination proof will be needed for indoor dining and drinking to exercise or be in an audience. employees have more time mid october so they can get shots without risking their jobs. all indoor events of more than 1000 most cars. people and a negative covid test won't fly evidence of full vaccination is the ticket. our members have been asking us. when are we going to go? full vaccination, a coalition of 80 jim's welcomes the city move there just thinking how can we get more people vaccinated and if you make it as inconvenient as possible to live in san francisco, being unvaccinated, that's a driver. san francisco is already 78% vaccinated, but as the delta variant sickens more people that timing now is no accident. labor day is coming up. there's going to be a lot of group gatherings, and at least we can get one jab in an arm. it's just another way. the government is separating us in society tourists, especially from high covid states, are startled to hear they won't get an indoor seat without a vax card. i don't understand how they can make it mandatory when even the vaccinated people can get it and spread it. why are we are mandating something that the freedom of choice so. i disagree. these people were messing up our livelihoods. they were putting everybody else in danger. city bar owners who started the trend. what if we just don't let them inside? say they have gotten very little pushback and fewer employees are out sick with breakthrough cases. we've gone through with it. it works. it's helping to decrease the exposure for our staff members and their families and help our businesses. los angeles, maybe next, and new york already has similar rules, but it accepts one shot. san francisco is going to require both mayor breed says she doesn't think compliance will be a problem because frank, many businesses were asking for this got reveal on live for us tonight in the city, deb. thank you. the warriors responded to the new vaccine changes today. they say that the city's vaccine mandate. will take effect for chase center next chase centers next event that isn't until september. 15th when artist tame impala is set to reform, they also are reminding people that a negative coronavirus test will no longer be accepted for entry. santa cruz county is now considering a mask, mandate and other restrictions as its health care system nears capacity. health officials are hoping that it won't have to come to that. they're urging everyone to do their part by getting vaccinated, masking indoors and in crowded areas outdoors and staying home when sick, health officials say current models predict a sharp increase in the number of covid-19 cases and hospitalizations in santa cruz county. in hayward. students at cal state east bay began moving in from the start of the new school year, students had to sign up ahead of time for a staggered 20 minute appointment to keep things from getting too crowded. cal state east bay says it will offer 40% of its fall classes either in person or hybrid. many other classes will still be exclusively online only. but unlike last fall dining services, the library recreation centers will all be open. definitely wanted to eat back inside the dining hall, so that was really important to them. last year, it was all to go service, so we brought back in person dining. they wanted events to return, so we will have some in person events. of course, you'll need to mask up. the csu system is requiring all students to be vaccinated by september 30th or take a weekly coronavirus test. the u. s. supreme court has refused to block indiana university's vaccine requirement for students. eight students had sued the university, saying that the requirement violated their constitutional rights. justice amy coney barrett turned down the students request for emergency relief without comment. her decision upholds rulings made by a lower court. which said each university may decide what is necessary to keep other students safe. the recall election is just over a month away in the campaign, yin is heating up. the candidate who was in the bay area today, plus president joe biden goes public with his support of california governor. at usaa, we've been called too exclusive. because we were created for officers. but as we've evolved with the military, we've grown to serve all who've honorably served. no matter their rank, or when they were in. a marine just out of basic, or a petty officer from '73. and even his kids. and their kids. usaa is made for all who've honorably served and their families. are we still exclusive?

three stateside to overseas they're proud of their boys and no all of them want to serve and would go to afghanistan in an instant but it is hard when you have skin in the game. it's different. it's

of a hazy afternoon out there in some spots in the baby because we do have a little smoke that's kind of creeping into the upper levels of the atmosphere doesn't necessarily make it to the ground and that's why our air quality hasn't been too bad today, but unfortunately we're going to see a little bit of a change as we head towards tomorrow and saturday putting this into future cast. you can see we start to get a northerly wind and that's going to push some of the smoke our way from the dixie fire you know from i could be the caldera fire as well. but i think the dixie fire more likely because this little further to the north and it is that northerly flow and it's going to be with us again through friday and saturday hopefully get some relief from it on sunday live look outside here at the oakland estuary we've had a little bit of a break from the fox tonight just a little bit of coastal fog out there but that's about it. and you can see our air quality is also not doing too badly a few yellow dots that means moderate air quality you see that in oakland you see it in san jose but quite a bit of green as well. so that is some good news. these are the current temperature 60 degrees right now in san francisco still in the seventies in places like concord and while in a creek where europe in those nineties today more heat on the way, not just tomorrow but as we head through the weekend unfortunately of course when we have heat we get a little fire danger as well and it will be inland spots that we're looking at for. we don't have any red flag mornings in the immediate bay area, but there are some to the north of us so just be mindful of that, as we head into the next few days. low pressure has been in control. that's why we had kind of that nice, mild weather at the cooler temperatures in a very robust marine layer, but now we're going to have high pressure takeover and what happens. there are two things we warm up and then also it helps to drive with that clockwise circulation you can see those arrows driving that wind from the north, and that's what kind of motivates that smoke to come towards us. unfortunately but tonight we're doing okay so partly cloudy skies tonight temperatures a little bit warmer than they were last night if you're up in some of the valleys in the north bay, we'll see fifties tonight we were down to some upper four days left. my little chilly. we'll see tomorrow 74 in san francisco 80 in oakland but again looking out for triple digits in spots like fairfield which got up to 101 today and antioch looking out for 100 degrees for you as we look over to the weekend though, you can see these temperatures state you know, pretty warm, taking antioch as an example again triple digits on saturday and just coming down the hill on sunday. is a quick look at your extended forecast we start to cool down more meaningfully as we head into the beginning of next week but get ready for a little inland heat as we head

july, the hottest month ever before in the history of the planet, that's data released by noaa. this july was 1.67 degrees fahrenheit of would the 20th century average of 60.4 degrees. the hottest was july 2016. july 2020 match the record. all of this comes days after the u.n. released its own report on climate change issuing a dire warning about the futuref rising global temperatures. >> this does not seem like a surprise. we've been talking about that for months. >> the data for california supporting the hottest on record for california and 127 years of weather data, despite the fact, you had near to slightly-below average temperatures. it was the inland portions of interior northern california that more than compensated. how about 3.6 degrees warmer than the average. the warmest july for california and 127 years of weather data and continuing the trend, seven of the ten warmest julys have occurred since 2000. so that is a local footprint of the climate shift we're beginning to see in california as summers trend hotter and stay warmer than average all the way into fall. right now, not too hot, clouds coming in, 74 degrees, mostly cloudy skies. we'll see 90s in reach this weekend and v

and washington dies in 1799 and hamilton is still in 1804 and famously they are going to die on july july 4, 1826, the 50th anniversary of the declaration of independence. so throughout all of this martial is vindicating martial vision. the great nationalist, sharing the continental us flag of george washington, under whom he fought at valley forge and if the viewer at valley forge with washington and hamilton, you understand that we need to support the troops if we do not we are dead and adams wasn't there, they don't feel it in their bones. it is immense respect for washington and there is immense respect for hamilton with his brilliant lawyer and marshall uses him and his legal ideas about the bank and many other things. one other thing that he does as he is a national speaker and a good listener and i talked about relationships between the founders, so jefferson and madison team up. and adams makes enemies, he is a loner, he teams up only with abigail, but then, you know, he is in a feud with hamilton, even though hamilton was trying to help him in various ways, and he starts off frie

much lower than it was in july because in june we weren't having the same problems with the delta variant we're having in july. in fact june's inflation was even higher than july'sry significant. the problem is if people aren't working, right? we have supply chain disruptions during the pandemic. if people don't get back to work, if they're not driving trucks, out working in the manufacturing facilities then you can't solve problems, the supply chain problems because you don't have the workers to make the products or distribute them. if you pay people as the democrats are more not to work than they could make if they had a job so they don't go back to work you will have supply chain problems. this could last a while. edward: exactly. that is what we're starting to hear now. paying people to stay home more. in fact the federal reserve chairman jay powell also acknowledging for the first time to me, that in fact it plays a role, that extra unemployment benefits. that rolls off in september. republicans are pointing to trillions of dollars in spending by democrats. what do you make of more of this spending going in? what does that mean for the inflation that we're

july. when homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas arrived here, he did indeed make it official. the actual number, 212,672 apprehensions in july. that is a 13% increase from june but perhaps more significantly, it's a five fold increase over the number last july020. the secretary admitted he's facing a uniquely difficult situation. listen here. >> the situation at the border is one of the toughest challenges we face. it's complicated, changing and involves vulnerable people at a time of a global pandemic. >> now, before coming here to brownsville, the secretary was in mcallen texas, the epicenter of the migrant surge where our pictures have shown you all week and for many weeks before that the surge of migrants coming across daily and night. he met with local leaders including henry cuellar and pete sykes made it very clear. >> they're strained, they're overworked. they don't need a pat on the back. they need resources. whatever season they're using is broken and needs fixing. >> whatever system they're using is broken and needs fixing. that was the message that the secretary received from local law enforcement and local political leaders here today, martha. we just spoke again to the incoming chief, raul ortiz. he described the situation as

trends for the months of june and july, you could see momentum in the restaurant space from black box same store sales increased by 6.8% in june and 8.1% in july. julygroup said. something that we've seen for many of the fast food companies that we track. but comparing in states where covid cases have been building, sales are outpacing the national levels last month. mississippi seeing 17.3% same store sales in july. and louisiana seeing 15.9% and florida and arkansas seeing gains of 9% for the month of july that being said, we've seen some pullbacks in certain states like florida, texas, missouri and arkansas from june to july but overall it seems consumers are not really shifting behaviors even if the face of rising covid cases and sales overall are not pulling back in terms of restaurant stocks. many of the best performers of last year are seeing bigger gains year-to-date names like papa johns, chipotle and wing stop, we are seeing some gains in the casual space, but overall that sector has tiken a leg lower as we see covid cases continue to climb. two issues facing the restaurant industry labor concerns and raising prices we've seen almost 24% t

julie: that's what happens. these gaffes. >> i don't know if you are looking for a part-time job. throw your name in the hat and write a couple of tool things. >> julie: that would be great. i would put a question mark at the beginning. >> we joke but at the same time you are the president of the united states, please, please be clear, sir. please. >> julieic about the rhode island branch of a major teachers union who is suing a mom of two. it is over her request for records from the school district on critical race theory. she reportedly did make a slough of requests, maybe more than 200. maybe a bit excessive but the union is saying in a statement quote we're asking the court to conduct a balancing test to determine whether our members' privacy rights outweigh the public interest. that mom, nicole, is reacting on twitter with a picture of the suit saying game on. and back in june she said this. >> really for for parents to start asking more questions. the more parents that ask more questions the harder it will be for schools to retailiate against a lot of parents. >> julie: i'm all for parents having a voice, shouldn't they? it is their children after all, right? >> as a teacher my biggest complain was involvement of the parents. i welcomed teacher parent conferences. i welcomed when they would come into the school and sit at their chi

july, july 13th, in which own officials in kabul warn him that a taliban takeover was eminent and without u.s. troops there afghan security forces likely would not be ablee to stop it. watch. >> all kinds of cables, all kinds of advice. if you noticed, they ranged from this group saying -- they didn't say fall when it did fall, but saying that it would fall to other, others saying i wouldn't happen for a long time and would be able to sustain through the end of the year. i made the decision. the buck stops with me. i took the consensus opinion. the consensus opinion was that, in fact, it would not occur if it occurred until later in the year. so it was my decision. maria: and according to new york times defense secretary lloyd austin as well as general mark milley also warned biden that this would happen and yet he ignored those warnings. joining me right now former secretary of state mike pompeo. he worked in february 2020 helping president trump negotiate a peace deal with the taliban to withdraw from afghanistan. mr. secretary, pleasure to see you, thank you very much for being here this morning. give us your reaction in terms of the pullout. secretary: maria, thanks for having me, we were determined to get things out. everyone knew that president trump want today get men and young women back home. we always knew that conditions had to be right to achieve that. had to have the administration on the ground right to do that. this administration leaving equipment and civilians behind. 15,000 to 2500 and kept the order that had been there. we didn't have the chaos. all the while we took 12,500 soldiers. when we got to that point, we went back and looked at the conditions. we wanted to get those last numbers out but we never found the conditions right to do so. so we continued to pound the taliban when they violated the agreement, when they moved on checkpoint or moved in a place that they weren't permitted. we used american power and made clear to the taliban that there would be real consequences. what happened here, maria, is you had a leader who was unprepared to do that. when the taliban pushed on the trump administration, we pushed back even harder and imposed real cost and when the biden administration pushed, they withdrew to commercial airport that in no way has capacity to get our people out with speed that needs to happen to keep them safe. this is an incompetent method of getting our folks out and presents real risk. i pray that we get them all home but i'm watching today even now they haven't yet organized in a way to push the american power out in a way to make sure that we can get americans out of the country. maria: and things are getting dangerous and more severe by the minute this morning the washington post is reporting that those people going to the airport are getting beaten up and there were 7 afghan civilians killed outside the kabul airport as biden set to update on evacuations later today. mr. secretary, does joe biden understand what has taken place here. i don't even understand why you would close the bagram air base before getting all of your civilians out? secretary: well, given what he's told america and what we can see happening on the ground and the massive disconnect between the two, it doesn't appear to the -- perhaps less, he's just not that interested. he's more focused on spending 3 and a half trillion dollars and creating diversity inside the military. it's impossible to explain how the president of the united states can go on tv and tell people that not only are people able to travel safely to the airport when we can clear see that that's not the case, but he told the world that our allies weren't concerned about what we were doing. and you need to only go to british parliament or listen to macron and merkel and can't no longer trust america as ally. they can all see with their own eyes to be true. this is dangerous. we are a few months into the administration and american leadership has already walked off the stage. you know, maria, we talked about this before, but president biden talks that america is back. it looks like we are back, it looks like we are back to barack obama, america apologizing, american weakness and our adversaries not fearing us and friends not trusting us. maria: we have to point out that many of the people on biden's team whether it'd be national security or in the state department were, in fact, in the obama white house. how capable are his defense and foreign policy teams in your view including your successor tony blinken? we know that there was a memo emerged revealed this past week indicating that joe biden was warned that this would happen this way and he ignored the warnings. secretary: maria, there's no doubt it's the same thing that was there for 8 years largely. they've all moved up one slot or two slots but it's largely the same cast and characterrers with the world view and that world view that says america is the set and important details. closing bagram, major air flow hub for american forces and american equipment in and out of the country and pulling out the military before the civilians got out and not working with friends and partners to make sure this was coordinated and most importantly not validating that the conditions on the ground were sufficient to actually execute this stage of the withdrawal. those are demonstrably geopolitical errors. they have not move today fix them. it's not only important for americans and civilians and vladimir putin and chairman kim stare and this presents enormous risk to the american people here at home. maria: exactly. and the mixed messages have been incredibly dangerous. last week president biden told the americans in afghanistan to get to the airport so that the u.s. can get them home and then this weekend we were told don't go to the airport. it's too dangerous. they are terrorists right outside the airport. the gates are locked. they are confiscating passports. what's going on? should americans go to the airport or not go to the airport? >> i must say, i don't have accurate situation or knowledge of what's on the ground although i heard from some folks in the region. it certainly sounds like passage to the airport is very dangerous. america needs to work to secure that, to reduce the risk. there are lots of ways to do that. how about this for starting point, make clear that you're not going to beg or implore or you're not going to plea or pay the taliban if americans are harmed. you will go and crush them. you will put real costs on them. this is the model that the trump administration had adopted and each time we did that, each time we did that, we got a tactical response from the taliban that respected the united states of america because they understood that there were things that they would not be permitted to do, most importantly harming americans. remember this, maria from the time we began peace and reconciliation and conversations, from the time we signed the deal in february 2020, not a single american was attacked by the taliban in a serious way and there wasn't a single american killed. that wasn't because the document, we were going to go to court to enforce the document, it was because we demonstrated american resolve and power and when you don't do that, this is the kind -- the chaos that you see in afghanistan is precisely what ensued what america fails to lead. maria: so they've already broken whatever agreement was made in doja. secretary: of course. maria: i'm talking about the taliban. was this a coup? secretary: you know, between the folks in afghanistan, right, president ghani was corrupt himself. the leaders in the other region. we didn't just sign agreement with the taliban, one with the afghan government too. we were talking to folks in the north and the west, this country has been in a mess for a long time. elections have been fraught and politically uncertainty for awfully long time. our mission set was clear, maria, our mission set was to make sure that we were able to get young men and women home and make sure we were never atracked this place again and we worked diligent as we saw the conditions on the ground that we withdrew in a way that provided maximum certainty that we would never be attacked from this place. chaos that you're seeing, maria, this drastically increases the likelihood that some day, some ungoverned space in afghanistan will lead to an attack maybe not on america but america interest somewhere around the world. maria: they have the weaponry now to do it. mr. secretary -- >> secretary: they sure do. maria: i want to get back and come back on something that you touched on and that's the longer-term consequences of all of this and then what actions the u.s. military needs to take now to prevent the taliban from driving afghanistan further into a terrorism state. we will be right back with secretary mike pompeo. that delicious scramble was microwaved? get outta here. everybody's a skeptic. wright brothers? more like, yeah right, brothers! get outta here! it's not crazy. it's a scramble. just crack an egg. maria: welcome back. we are back with former secretary of state mike pompeo, also a fox news contributor. let me point out that we are also following the latest on tropical storm henri. you can look on the side of the screen to get the very latest, we will be doing that all day. mr. secretary, i've got to get your take on the consequences of this cut and run pullout of afghanistan. the historian bernard lewis worried that the greatest danger to global stability is when america comes to be seen as harmless as an enemy and treacherous as a friend. this is something larry lindsey posted last week and i want to bring up this global times treat. this, of course, the global times is the international mouthpiece for the chinese communist party and as soon as we saw the cut and run out of afghanistan, the editor-in-chief of global times treats this. after the fall of the kabul regime, the taiwan authorities must be trembling. don't look forward for u.s. to protect them, tapia need to order when they surrender to liberation army. secretary: well, maria, the global times is propaganda mouthpiece for the communist party. that's just them poking fun at a weak administration in america. but here is the truth of the matter is, this debacle will certain harm with american and allies. you have seen some of it publicly but talk privately can this president and american leadership team can actually deliver. and so my wisdom would be this, so this is an enormous amount of credibility to the united states. you can begin to demonstrate to the world that we are not harmless, indeed, we are powerful. how about this? walk away from negotiations in viena. we are done, we are out. how about this, help the taiwanese close on some trade and trade deals with them and start delivering those weapon systems and emirates, move that forward and demonstrate that we will be good partners to emirates. if you're president salinsky in ukraine, work closer with ukraines from preventing vladimir putin to take another chunk of ukraine. how about announcing today that we will not show up in beijing for the olympics and take them, these are the kind of things that world leaders are looking for. they are lack to go show american resolve and strength. i hope that the biden team has it within them to deliver on the kinds of clear actions, not just words but actions that will convince leaders around the world that we remain a strong force and strong partner and that will tell our adversaries a lot too. it will tell them that it will not challenge the united states. maria: why aren't we doing what the french are doing getting the french out? secretary: it's been a long week, that is nonsense. i'm a veteran. i know the capabilities of our young men and women. we can deliver just the same way the french and the united kingdom are delivering for their people. to say that we don't have the capacity to do that, first of all, it's untrue. what they have not demonstrated is the willing l to do this. i hope that they will find that steel, the resolve. i pray that we get all americans home, we have an obligation, solemn obligation to make sure that we are able to do so. maria: secretary pompeo, before you go, a question none of us want to ask but i must, is joe biden mentally capable to be in this role at this moment in time? secretary: i will tell you, it's been a tough week to watch the president being disconnected from the reality that we can all see. i pray that they get this right. i hope that president biden is up to the task. today he's demonstrated that in afghanistan he's failed. the incompetence of the administration has been tragic, will have long-lasting implications. i hope they are able to ride the ship and get this right. i know that every american wishes that for our own country. maria: of course, and we are all patriots. thank you very much for weighing in this morning. we will talk soon along the lay. former secretary mike pompeo, coming up will president biden's massive blunders in afghanistan blow up his tax and spend economic agenda in washington. nancy pelosi still pushing for passage having called the house of representatives back tomorrow to vote. house minority leader mccarthy is here and weigh in on priorities and dangerous state of affairs right now. stay with us. ♪ ♪ ♪ it's moving day. and while her friends are doing the heavy lifting, jess is busy moving her xfinity internet and tv services. it only takes about a minute. wait, a minute?

>> no and this is not what happens when you leave. i have heard the taliban has more blackhawk helicopters than australia. can you imagine that? even if the taliban cannot learn to fly those, where would they go? they will go in hands of iran and russia. they have built military. imagine iran will be in there collecting drones and missiles and this has set us back decades and for democrats to bring us back into congress to try to pass another new election law that would ban -- unconstitutional but ban id voting to spend $5 trillion, the only focus of this congress or this administration would be to get every single american out but when you listen to secretary of state and secretary of defense, they will use the term as many as we can. that's not the answer. we have the ability to get it out, we just need the authority from the president to send our troops out to bring those americans home, that's what we owe to the american public. maria: i think that you have made so many important points there and i want to go back and zero in. somebody else mentioned to me that the president keeps saying anybody who wants to leave afghanistan will be able to leave afghanistan, is he playing word games with us? is he going to get to august 31st and say we res knewed anybody who want today leave and those who didn't want to leave are still there, why -- of course, the americans on the ground do not want to be controlled by the taliban. they want out. what is he trying to say there? >> well, remember what he said on friday, that americans will not have difficulty getting to the airport. they are. that al-qaeda is no longer in afghanistan, they are. the foreign leaders are not criticizing america, they are. that the border is secure, it is not. directly after that press conference, we had a conference call for republicans and democrats, pelosi praised the president and the actions. i listened to secretary of state and secretary of defense and i layed into them with the idea, stop saying as many americans. what we want to see is as many americans. why can the french and british go out and get citizens and why can't america? the only thing that is holding back is the will to do it and the authority from this president. how can you get it so wrong or is he just not remembering it. this is an atrocity that will harm this nation for years to come, empower our adversaries and making our allies continue to question. i have heard from ambassadors not knowing where america will be in the future. we've heard from world leaders, even to tony blair and you see what china is trying to do to taiwan and he has empowered iran which will probably have american weapons soon and now we are hearing isis is possible along the airport. why is this president either lying to us or not knowing the truth of what's going on and trying to defend it but only calling on the press that is predetermined? maria: well, on the tony blair comment, i was reading the story tony blair calls this an imbecile move. that was reported earlier. you mentioned the hr1 voting bill and i want to get back to that because i've got to tell you, there are viewers of this program who have lost faith in the republican leadership, lost faith in mitch mcconnell and in you because we do not know if you have your arms around free and fair elections. how come there's no discussion about all of the states that are changing their voting laws right now, how come there's no discussion about the audit going on in arizona right now? what are you going to do? can you prove to the american people that you are in control here and able to ensure that we will have free and fair elections in 2022 and 2024? >> well, first and foremost, maria, you can see it's not in law. the answer is, yes, we can. secondly, if we watch the states, georgia passed an election law that more people are registered to vote than any time before and difficult to ever cheat again. state after state where dem kravitz have left the state. that's where the difficulty lies. now we got them back to texas. we are going exactly what the constitution says, not to make this a national campaign but empower the states to where we are going. we are fighting every single day. we watch the democrats because they could not pass hr1, they are bringing hr4 now while thousands of americans are being held hostage in afghanistan. that's their priority because they know they will lose the election. nancy pelosi is only down to 4 votes and they want to spend another almost $5 trillion to bring the greater inflation. you know, president biden said he's going to bring us back. he brought us back to the 70's being hostage in afghanistan, oil prices the highest we have seen. begging opec to produce more and we are watching they are trying to cheat in elections, inflation, a number that we have not seen. this is jimmy carter on steroids and this is just 8 months into the administration. i will promise you this just as we have done each and every day. we will fight just as we are going to fight this week and we will win and the next century will be the american century because we know how the govern. maria: all right, i like that promise. real quick before you go, you and your colleagues came back early from cay vagues to vote tomorrow, what does this week look like, is joe biden's economic agenda going to get blown up as a result of this massive mistake in afghanistan? congressman: i hope the focus of congress is just on the thousands of americans who are in afghanistan right now to make sure we protect the servicemen and women that bring them home. instead of listening to nancy pelosi saying she's having a conversation with the president about election law, why are they protecting the border from those 5,000 prisoners who have just left afghanistan and have the hope of coming across our borders? maria: yeah, we will see about that. you've been to the border, you've seen it firsthand. house minority leader kevin mccarthy. wonderful to have you, sir, we will be right back. ♪ ♪ ♪ >> tech: every customer has their own safelite story. this couple loves camping adventures and their suv is always there with them. so when their windshield got a chip, they wanted it fixed fast. they drove to safelite autoglass for a guaranteed, same-day, in-shop repair. we repaired the chip before it could crack. and with their insurance, it was no cost to them. >> woman: really?

maria: just 3 concerning statements made by president biden during his address to the nation on friday. he also promised to bring home any american who wants to come home. contradicting his own defense secretary who said we do not have the capability to rescue large numbers of americans right now. joining me right now is arkansas senator tom cotton, he's an army veteran and served in afghanistan from 2008 to 2009, he sits on the senate judiciary and armed services committee and we are honored to have him this morning. senator, first, thank you so much for your service to our great country. this all must be personal to you. how do you see it? >> thank you, maria. well, for so many veterans who served in afghanistan or their gold star family members, this is tragic, heartbreaking, it's sad but it's also infuriating because it was not just predicted -- predictable, it was predicted that joe biden's ill-con received, ill-plan decision to rush troops out in the middle of the fighting season could lead to this kind of chaos that we see now where we have anywhere from 10 to 15,000 americans stranded behind taliban lines, unable to get to the airport and direct contradiction what joe biden said friday which own secretary defense was contradicting about. my office has been on the phone with hundreds and hundreds of americans and afghans who report taliban gains outside of the airport beating people with sticks and pipes and chains, confiscating passports, confiscating visas. it is in the a free passage situation in kabul right now to the airport and it remains that way today. that's something that joe biden needs to stop today. he needs to commit to getting out every american and stop playing word games saying things like, well, every american who wants to go or as many americans as we can, it needs to be clear, we will get out every american from behind taliban lines. maria: yeah, it certainly has not been clear. is this a hostage situation? senator: yeah, maria, in effect, the americans are hostages to the taliban. they may not be under lock and key in a jail but if the taliban control all of the airports once we leave and they control all of the border crossings, then we are going to be a hostage to fortune to the taliban's good will to the americans. there's been a lot of comparisons in the past week, to sigone 1975, i would say this is much worse than what happened in sigone 1975 but the scenario that troubles me going forward the tehran of 1979. 52 americans hostage and paralyzed america for more than a year. we have 10 to 15,000 americans who are in effect hostages to the taliban right now, joe biden needs to make it clear to the taliban that we are not leaving until everyone is gone and if their injured, we may do exactly what we did in 2001. maria: well, look, it's important to point out the number of troops in afghanistan right now. talk about that and i want to get your take on what the motivation was to close bagram air base first. he closed the air base on julys that had even as he's shutting down the one opportunity to protect people while there are thousands of americans on the ground in afghanistan. first the point about the number of troops in afghanistan today? >> yeah, maria, i think this illustrates very well joe biden's incompetence in handling the withdrawal. we announced the withdrawal in the spring. we had 2500 troops in afghanistan. we now have 7,000 troops in afghanistan, maria, to try to get americans out. so we have almost 3 times as many troops in afghanistan to get out of afghanistan as we had when joe biden announced we were getting out of afghanistan. nothing can probably better indicate the incompetence of joe biden of executing the withdrawal and then when you talk about bagram air base, the chairman of the joint chiefs made it pretty clear the other day that the military was given a maximum troop level that they can have in afghanistan starting july 1 and to control both the embassy and the airport as well as bagram req

in fact, we started in july, july 15th. families were getting $300 per kid, 250 bucks for kids over to age of 6. that's happening again in august, september, october, november. so parents at the end of the month can make decisions about how to pay their grocery bill, pay their rent, maybe buy a little bit of child care so they can stay at work and keep working for their families. that's why we need to make it permanent when we lived in an economy that's worked really well o for the top 10% for all these years but hasn't worked for 90% of the american people. that's what this is about. >> do you find it strange as i do that when we give these tax cuts to the wealthy, the top 10% as you mentioned, and you come and talk about child tax credits and making it permanent, they act like that's a handout. when we're talking about people that really literally need it? >> it is staggering. these people are willing to cut taxes for the richest people in the country when we've had the worst income inequality since the 1920s. and then th
