to your point, kanter has represented clients that have taken action against them.e watching them to see how they react. let's take a broader look at the markets, staging a strong recovery. yesterday, we saw a broad selloff. today is a broad turnaround. we are seeing a little bit of waffling in the bronze -- bond market, but the trading volumes today on the upside are significantly lighter than they were yesterday on the downside. so a lot more participation in selling stocks than there is in the recovery today. part of that has to do with concerns about the delta variant , curbing economic growth, as we saw a resurgent cases in the u.k., as well as united states. we also got some breaking news yesterday. canada reopening its border to the united states, allowing fully vaccinated americans to travel to canada without the requirement of a 14-day quarantine or a stay in the so-called quarantine hotel. certainly a welcome moment for a lot of people looking to not only travel but be reunified with family. let's bring in bruce heyman, the former u.s. ambassador to canada

kanter, asking the court to essentially take mr.thing if that happens it's going to obviously be a hugely controversial move to keep him on the case because he obviously has been paid to go after google in the past and it's a little different than lina khan. again she was an academic, so we'll see what happens, but the headline here is the biden administration, from what we understand, fox business has spoken to numerous sources in the anti-trust world particularly lawyers that represent companies and talk to dodge anti-trust that they are planning or at least talking about and leaning heavily towards some sort of a waiver, so mr. kanter can work on the case, and then it's going to be, you know, battle royale in the courts over his participation, neil, back to you neil: all right, charlie gasparino, thank you very very much, my friend. ben and jerry's usually doesn't enter much criticism, people love the ice cream and all of that but when it decided to nix selling its ice cream in israeli occupied territories, well let's just say a

so their appointee to be the head of the justice department's anti-trust division that's jonathan kanterssentially the lead lawyer, of the government, behind the scene s, probably won't be in the courtroom, you know, usually hire outside people to do that on major anti-trust cases but he might. he is a seasoned litigator, they will try to get him a wave or so he can be front and center and the reason why is because he's represented companies that have sued google, attacked google, he's represented microsoft in a lawsuit and representing yelp, for the initial action that began during the trump adminitration towards the end of the ten use i think it was october 2020 so they are seeking that waiver and we understand google is going to try to get him thrown off the case, try to get a court to intervene just the same way as amazon is doing and i believe apple is doing, with lina khan, the head of the ftc, whose ruling on some amazon cases, including its purchase of mgm studios, but the biden administration, from what i understand, feels pretty confident he's going to even withstand that. they

hold companies like facebook responsible for misinformation also, president biden tapped jonathan kanteromic advisers, why so -- why do you think investors don't seem concern. i have to admit, it defying logic. these three names are absolutely dedicated to dealing with the problems of revising the antitrust laws, which are really so far out of date, in a time when there was no digital economy. if you look at 'em of the companies they are looking at, when is primarily alphabet, google, facebook, amazon, apple, they are all. >>> and david sicily in the house house has had a focus on this. now it's ipartisan s in face of this, you're see stocks go to almost new highs and does have bipardon san support. it's the same thing that china is dealing with, trying to get around these companies they have similar antitrust mo notally laws they are focusing on now >> yeah, just no congress, i guess, no parties, but alan, you know, facebook and amazon have already have had leena kahn to recuse herself now you have kanter, so investors are saying, what is the likelihood that would threaten their busines

doj's top anti-trust cop joining us now, ben brody, who first reported that biden was considering kanter back in april. good to have you ben, how significant is this and how much you pushback should we expect on this pick given what we've already seen with lina khan >> i think it's hugely significant. if you look at who the progressives have wanted to put in that spot since the beginning of the biden administration, this is who they want. he is the person they think will be the most aggressive, bring the most cases, bring the department forward as they see it the fastest so this is who they want and i think if you're google in particular i would be shaking in my boots and use some of those lobbyists that we just talked about to really push back gendz the kinds of things that he could be bringing down, whether it's future cases, whether it's mergers or litigation strategy because the cases have already been launched. how tough is the gop going to be in that room i think that's what boolgoogle s to worry about now >> do you think they should recuse himself because of his track record and w

since taking office, biden has tapped three leading critics of big tech to top positions -- kanter atthe doj, lina khan to head the federal trade commission, and tim wu at the national economic council. the president of the upcoming u.n. climate talks in the united kingdom has urged nations to ban the burning of coal as part of an effort to reduce carbon emissions. alok sharma spoke to the journalism collaboration covering climate now. i want cup 26 tbe the cop -- if i talk out the youth's own joney when it comes to coal power, in 2012, less than 10 years ago, 40% of electricity was ming frocold. we are n less than 2%. 2024 by which we will be coal-free. amy: the u.k. will host the next u.n. climate conference in november in glasgow, scotland. in other climate news, in southwestern iran at least three people have died in protests sparked by a massive water shorge. protesrs have tan to the streets fothe past sen days. iran is facing its worst drought in 50 years amid soaring summer mperatures in cana, policin toron arrested6 peopleednesdays authorities forcibly evict unhoed residts lin

kevin garnett, draymond green and my greatest success story to date -- trailblazers center ennis kanterfore he came to me, his smack was whack. >> you don't play basketball. you play bad-sketball. do you get it? there's good-sketball, you're bad so you're bad at basketball -- >> boo! >> anthony: but now he sounds like this. >> oh! >> your shots are like donald trump's tweets -- because they're old and blocked. thanks anthony. >> anthony: that boy is good. this can be used by everyone. from waiters -- >> where's the wine list? >> we don't have one, but if we did, you'd be on it because you're been whining since you sat down. >> anthony: to uber drivers. >> oh, it stinks in here. >> my wife's going to say the same thing after i put my boot in your ass. thanks, anthony anderson. >> anthony: is what i teach inappropriate? destructive? immature? possibly. career ending? sure. but y'all can't get your money back, so i don't give a [ bleep ]. i'm anthony anderson. and this is my master class. and if you don't believe me, ask my momma. she taught me everything i know. >> that's right, you bette

we know jonathan kanter has been anti-alphabet for years. what does that mean for big tech?most immediate consequence if he is confirmed the deposition is this existing antitrust lawsuit against google that has been filed by the federal government, which is going after their search business and cutting deals with apple and other companies for distribution shared i think that would be the first battlefield. there is another lawsuit that could be refiled against facebook. there are a lot of issues that are bubbling up. that will be an immediate charge if he is confirmed. caroline: let's lineup the timelines for all of these things because we felt for a long-term view administration is serious -- for a long time this administration is serious. we think it is going to be all focus and then the ftc backs away, pushed away in terms of its focus on facebook. what is the most eminent antitrust threat facing some of these big tech right now? >> if you are looking at processes, you look at the ftc and look at congress, it takes longer time for them to act. on the ftc, you need a major

joseph kanter, thanks so much. we appreciate your time. >> thanks, jim. >>> the delta variant is behind a sharp surge of coronavirus in california. on friday l.a. county reported over 3,000 new cases for the first time since february. there's also a comparatively sharp rise in hospitalizations since mid-july. this despite l.a. county being one of the only places in the country still enforcing an indoor mask mandate, even for people fully vaccinated. paul vercammen is live in los angeles with the director of the los angeles county department of public health, dr. barb reara ferrer. >> the numbers are bad. doctor, what are the latest numbers in this explosion of cases? >> sure. unfortunately today we're seeing 2,600 new cases of covid. we have ten more people who have passed away from covid. hospitalizations again jumped to about 688 people are hospitalized today. and our test positivity has stabilized at about 5%. >> reporter: as we look behind you, we see there's a vaccination clinic. a little earlier today i saw a

kanter at the doj, people populating the biden regulatory apparatus who don't come from the judge borque school of anti-trust which you have to show consumer harm. they are much more in the lewis brondice mode which is these companies are too big and powerful, they need to be broken up. whether they can break them up i have no idea but this is going to be very interesting, how bezos and jassy go forward with this type of regulatory scrutiny they are already under scrutiny for the mgm purchase. they want to buy other stuff, we reported earlier they want to get into pharmaceuticals and maybe betting. this is going to be very interesting, big tech is going to come under big pressure in the years ahead as long as biden is president and the crew running the show from a regulatory standpoint stays there. liz back to you. liz: yeah, the republicans weren't too thrilled about big tech either let's keep that in mind. charlie: it's a huge difference, liz. they don't look to breakup. they did not look to breakup. this is pretty big. these are people that look at the world a lot differently than aji
