&%c1 well, maria: welcome back. frontier airlines terminating a five month pursuit with merger of spirit airlines this week as spirit got together with jetblue and struck a $3.8 billion deal to merge instead. spirit touting the deal that would create the fifth largest airline in the country. joining me right now in a fox business exclusive is the ceo of frontier airlines barry biffle. thank you for being here this weekend. we so appreciate it. what went wrong? was this south carolina price or something else? why would this not go your way? >> thanks for having us on, maria. the reason why it didn't go our way in the end obviously the spirit shareholders voted to go with the jetblue option and it was kind of a choice of kind of cash versus the ability to participate in the upside of the travel recovery and they chose the cash today, but unfortunately that cash won't be paid till they consummate a deal. i think that it's disappointing for spirit shareholders in the long run but today maybe they don't feel that way but

maria: right. wells at the top, and the administration apparently is okay with unwitting investors investing in chinese companies tied to the chinese communist party that may very well end up turning around and fighting america. tom cotton has a problem with this esg agenda, and he says that he wants to investigate esg practices from groups like blackrock which he says have created a climate cartel to suppress investment in the fossil fuel industry in america, and that's contributing to $5-a-gallon gasoline are. your thoughts on the investments of american families and this federal fund having a wide open window. this is the 401(k) for federal employees, they're able to invest in chinese companies that may very well get hostile on america. we are funding their expansion. >> oh, we absolutely are. but how sad and ironic to have our military members' retirement plan start to be invested into beijing that lists all of their defense companies. that money's going right to the future chinese stealth fighters,

maria: yeah. well china is our leading adversary and so when you're in a situation where you actually have your adversary gunning for you, wanting to overtake you as the number 1 super power and then you recognize that over several, you know, multidecade period, the sitting president's family has taken in all of this money from that adversary. it begs the question, what are you protecting and are you compromised with the decisions around china? >> well, maria, look, you have been one of the few journalist who is have been on the story from day one reporting from transparency and, look, our bankers are trained to follow the suspicious activity reports, those that you're referencing and for the administration now to make it tougher for members of congress to request those is unbelievable and the american people should be upset and appalled by this action of the biden administration. maria: it is appalling, it absolutely is appalling. we will take a break and when we come back we will look at vacation inf

maria: welcome back. wellbout an hour from now, raising questions about the president's weak stance on beijing. lydia hu is live with more on what will be discussed. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. b president biden's call with xi jinping comes as biden is reportedly considering relaxing former president trump's tariffs on imports from china in order to reduce consumer prices. some experts say rolling back on the tariffs will have a minimal effect, reducing inflation by only about a quarter of a percent at most. even though the chinese goods are taxed at a rate of about 19.3% compared to 3% for goods from other countries, chinese imports still account for just about 2% of goods included in the cpi. also, maria, tariffs were imposed in response to decades of chinese intellectual property theft, rescinding the tariffs some say would signal that ip theft is not taken seriously when chinese intellectual property theft is still costing the american economy between 225 $22 billion and $600 billion a

maria welcome back, restaurant owners are feeling the pain as well. ng, maria. we just identified these surveys, fewer small business owners than ever before look out six months and think their conditions are going to improve. think about that. inflation to your point is still the top concern, a guy named jeff good owns this bakery where i'm standing this morning and couple other restaurants in jackson as well and he was telling us in his views one of the real reasons why inflation still even after months of top concern that his suppliers have come in with a fresh round of price hikes. >> i know if you spoke to friends in the produce industry, when the contracts come up and have to renegotiate it, they may have renegotiated a year ago, now three times as expensive and they have to figure that out. >> the way they figure it out is by raising prices. we did get out and speak to people in the produce industry. sunshine fresh retail business and manager gave us tour of his facility saying he was one of the hold-outs on price hikes but eventually he had to

maria: yeah. wellhristopher wray this week on this issue, and then i want to show you what joe biden has been doing with regard to policy on china. here's the director of the fbi, watch. >> this spring the chinese government went so far as directly interfering in a congressional election in new york. they didn't want the candidate, a tiananmen square protester and critic of the chinese government, to be elected. a former chinese intelligence officer hired a private investigator to dig up derogatory information and derail the congressional candidate's campaign, and when they couldn't find anything, they decided to manufacture a controversy using a sex worker. and and when that didn't work out, they even suggested using violence such as arranging for the candidate to be struck by a vehicle and making it look like an accident. maria: wow. this is just extraordinary. do you see any powell play behind the -- foul play behind the murder of shinzo abe? >> i don't know. we're going to find out more about aha i

>> right, maria. welluadrupled in price since joe biden took office and right now we have tariffs on some foreign countries for fertilizers including morocco and trinidad so we've asked the president just like he took tariffs off solar panels because of an energy crisis, to take tariffs off fertilizers. the price of period liesers is drive -- fertilizers is driving up the costs. groceries were up 12% this month as well. so the cost of fertilizers are driving up the cost of those groceries. we want the president to stop he these tariffs. maria: well, what about tariffs on chinese goods, senator? where are you on that? because it seems that the china policy is all about giving in to the chinese communist party. they didn't want the china initiative. they didn't want all those investigations into their intellectual property theft, joe biden canceled the china initiative. they also don't want the tariffs on and now he's considering it. >> you're right, maria. look, china's even cut off their phosphate exports

but you should. ♪ maria: welcome back. welleconomic data, and in washington the commerce department will release the second quarter or gdp on thursday this week. and if we get another contraction for the second quarter, we will have confirmation that we are, in fact, officially in a recession right now. so far the estimates show growth for the second quarter, so we will see. but two straight quarters of contraction means a recession, and we did have a decline of 1.6% con in the first quarter. also next week the federal reserve is meeting on tuesday and wednesday, and we are expecting the fed to raise interest rates by another 75 basis points, making borrowing more expensive on top of inflation at 40-year highs. in washington it is the final week in session before the august reaccess as democrat lawmakers are trying to push through more spending and higher taxes. joining me now with 107 days before the midterm elections is bop leader california congressman -- gop heeder kevin mccarthy. congressman, thanks for being here. >> than

maria: well, we'll see what that means for the backdrop.now. allie, the fed said it's going to be picking up the pace of raising rates. we're looking ahead of to the next meeting happening in two weeks' time. 75 basis points, i guess 99% chance of a 75 basis point hike you according to what markets are betting on right now. what are you expecting? what's the impact of the fed meeting minutes yesterday and another rate hike to come? >> good morning, maria. yeah, i think that another rate hike is absolutely baked in. it's baked in at 75. now, yesterday's release was a little bit scaled in terms of the fact that there has been a lot of hawkish rhetoric that has come through since then, even the testimony on the hill where he said -- where chairman powell said even 1% is not off the table. the interesting thing that happened over the last couple day as we've seen interest rate volatility and as the market has gone from a primary concern about inflation to a primary concern about recession and slowdown which are sort of this hair on the see saw

>> well, i tell you, maria.d of decorum or respect for what's happening today. when i started my career the cardinal rule was you don't fight the fed. now the rule is you have no idea what playbook the fed is using because i don't think they know. so what i'm going to look for is what buzz words he's using, this is going to be word salad, going to be double talk, two handed talk, whatever you want to call it but the tone is probably going to be a hawkish because the fed can't point to yet a single month where what it's doing has had any kind of pressure on the inflation. this to me is going to be critical moment in the fed history. i think they should take the my microphone away from everybody but chairman powell and get to business. maria: 75 basis points is what we're expecting. tomorrow we get the first read of the second quarter gdp. we're looking ahead to the durable goods number out at 8:3. economists are expecting a month over month decline in durable a goods orders of half a percent. david, your thoughts

10th continuation of our telethon right now olga laziness, colleague , thank you for your word maria well, let's talk a little about the collapse of russia, so in a moment the rivalry, let's wait recently, more and more world discussions about security have been reduced to one question: what to do with a weak but aggressive russia and at the moment, there is no such clear question, but what to do with an empire that is falling apart but has enough weapons to spoil life in this world in the process of this collapse and what to do with post-colonial russia, which is delusional with some wild projects about some new world order, and these delusions are just as wild, so untenable and ineffective, those projects of unions that the russian federation created on in the post-soviet space after 1991 and in russia, even they themselves understand the meaning if, brothers, the entry of north korea, here is the kb and the transition to a unified weapons system, this means the delivery of a completely different technology of the warhead to north korea, don’t forget about a completely different technol

maria: well, i can tell you that, when i was the superintendent in my earlier days, there was not anis kind of a voice to really promote the--kind of the development of leadership among the latino population of educators in the state, and so we had to create that voice, and to see it now and to see how many are advocating, how may are moving agendas within their districts, it's very gratifying. i mean, i just, as--bursting with pride, looking out at the room and thinking, "wow," you know, and remembering how small we were at the beginning, so when you have a powerful vision for the future and you see that it's possible, you just--people will say to you, "it's not possible." they will say, "it's impossible," but if you have that vision and you get people of like mind, you can create amazing change, and so i'm so proud of the organization, their president and their board, and the future of the organization. i was sitting on the stage today, thinking, "where will they be in ten years?" and it excites me because i think that, out of california, they're influencing the whole nation, so pr

[inaudible conversations] >> right. this is going to be a massive of red wave along the border. the border counties and the border districts have historically always been democrat. the one that mayra flores won was always held by a democrat, it's now held by a republican. we will see other republican victories along the border. i will do extraordinarily well on the border and it's because so many people on the border are so angry about the biden administration's approach to the open border policy, and they're going to be voting against the biden ad manager, voting for -- administration, voting for

your assessment of the quarter and what drove business, why you're raising guidance here. >> well, thanks, mariaily due to ingber than expected leasing. we have 1,000 innovative tenants. no other company has the breadth and depth of tenants we do. 87%, almost 90% of our leasing is from our existing tenants so we don't really have to go actually outside our home, so-to-speak, to bring in those great tenants to lease. we had 2.3 million square feet this quarter leased. last quarter was 2.5 million and the quarter before that was 4.1 million. and i think what's happening, maria, is we've been in this business almost 30 years. and our tenants have a long history with us. they entrust their very, very highly trained technicians, researchers and laboratory workers to our environments that are safe, healthy, and ones that you can't do lab work from home and they've really entrusted that into our brand and i think that's the backdrop here, even though we see a tail-off and we've seen as you've characterized and chronicled i think well, we've seen a downturn even in our sector, the so called life science

maria dragging after the collapse of his national unity government. the president has asked mister, dragging to remain in post as caretaker, leader. well, maria drug, his resignation has implications for the e was well, d, w jack barrack has more on the reaction from brussels. well it's, it will be a huge heavy to see a leader change. i think it's safe to say that here in brussels and indeed across the capitals of the european union, mario draggy is an extremely popular figure. firstly, because he's come across a stable. secondly, because not only has he told the e u line country to many of his predecessors, he's actually advanced this in greatly participated in a lot mainly because of his history as the president of the european central bank. he understands europe. he knows how it works. he knows how the works and also he's extremely pro european, i think the broad support that he has actually felt in italy and continues to feel has extended here in brussels. we saw, for instance, him attending that visit to cave, alongside olaf shows the german chancellor and france president emmanuel, my crohn, he's been extremely strong on support

maria: well, it's very muted. we really have not heard from any major leader reactor this.you look at the european institutions, they've set in the past hour nothing in principle changes, we stick to our rules, which as we look at the details of the deal that we signed and we will continue to defend those. a lot of this is this idea that europeans like to play up, this is another day u.k. politics. it is very messy. brexit unleashed forces that have made the u.k. very unstable. and makes a bilateral relationship between the eu and u.k. unstable by nature. but they do watch and they clearly care about. the other thing that i presume they will be paying attention to is the woman or man that replaces boris johnson. this will reinforce their thinking that they should not be flexible when it comes to changing the deals or parts of it. they believe, imagine just two weeks ago, mr. schatz coverage had agreed to reopen the irish protocol. who see going to negotiate within the next two weeks? who's that person he needs to deal with in the u.k.? it reinforces these idea from the euro
