shannon: thank you so much. in a recent tweet emphasizing inclusion liberal arts college included a note that conservative students said your viewpoints are important. there was swift backlash. the editor in chief joins us to talk about cancel culture on campus. people can see the statement that talked about black lives matter and different viewpoints that include conservatives and your viewpoints. a professor said this is problematic, conservative people have never been oppressed by the us, a comparison to women, immigrants, people of color and other minority experiences, dishonest and demeaning. you can't include conservative people as viewpoints but should be included. >> the professor thinks conservative students have been oppressed she hasn't gone on different campuses around the country. i have seen how conservative ideas are the only ones at risk of being shutdown, stifled, harassed and threatened and that is why penn state came out with a statement but what messages this? we reached out to the school, th

shannon: the court of public opinion. how serious these problems are, we are asking about police brutality and lack of law in and order 76% say police brutality is a serious problem, 21% say not very or not. lack of law and order edges at 79% say there's a problem, not a very big problem or not a problem, 17% and this brings to mind the st. louis couple that has been charged because they say we have legally registered and owned guns, we felt under threat in their facing charges tonight so what do you make of this landscape where people say i'm not sure someone's going to shop to defend me, i will do it myself but if i do, i own these guns legally, i can still in the estimation of the local prosecutor crossed the line and be facing charges. >> remember this about guns and gun control and accusations against people who own guns and even bring them outside. this is a dangerous issue for democrats and always has been. through the years there have been large majorities supporting more gun control but politicians who supported

shannon: welcome back.trump called cancel culture and american and nearly half of americans agree. 46% of voters believe cancel culture has gone too far. good to see you this morning. i don't know about you but i've had conversations with a lot of friends out there as of late especially cancel culture at a peak right now. part of the problem is if you make a mistake you are supposed to learn from it and go forward and be better, not just be fired from your job or whatever the case may be and have nothing left, what do you say? >> i have a 6, and number-year-old and teach every day, you will make mistakes every day of your life. even daddy at the thick age of 39 -- perhaps i'm a bit older -- makes mistakes every day but people that are best in this world are the ones that learn from it and get better. great point on your part. we need to cancel cancel culture. i can't believe 46% of people think it has gone too far. i would like to meet the other people who think it is about right. i saw another pole at 662%

shannon: thank you. let's bring in kathleen, superintendent of partnership schools, nonprofit that manages several catholic schools in the south bronx and a fox news medical contributor, welcome to you both. the new york post editorial has this, sciences open the schools. most studies show rotavirus poses few health risks to children, mitigate the health risks and the educational risks at once, open with additional safety measures, americans cannot afford to lose yet more month of learning. what are your concerns in balancing these risks, health risk is evident, kids and everybody involved but the educational deficit many kids will miss. >> the school i get to serve in new york city says the most disadvantaged communities in the nation. we have to for catholic schools and elementary in the south bronx, our students are from the foremost congressional districts. if we are forced to shut down i was proud of the work are teachers did in the principles did, so we know our kids learn better when we bring them

. >> juan: all right, shannon, the president will come out in a few minutes to announce the white housedelines for school reopening. now, you recall last week, the cdc came out with their own set of guidelines, the white house, the trump white house, saying that they're too strict. will that cause confusion for the public? >> shannon: of the cdc director came out we don't want the guidelines were giving to viewed as the reason we're excuse to keep the schools closed on we think that there is a way to do this and were not changing them based on pressure from the white house but the cdc director said. we think there's ways to reopen schools and i can tell you a friend of mine the coworker in d.c.'s mom and anxious to get hurt conducting school and says the local system here in northern virginia reached out and surveyed students and parents and said how do you feel about coming back? results came in and 60 plus percent of them wanted schools to reopen and there's a way to do it in the school's came back and said we took the survey into a cow but were not going to reopen. parents are frustr

shannon: it does slow.ne of the things the covid crisis has shown is that remote work is something very important. remote learn is something, at least if you have the capabilities. to do that, to a large extent, you need to move to a work cloud -- to do that to a large extent, you need to move to a more cloud-based world. lisa: are they losing this fight for market share? shannon: no, i don't think they are. i think they are extremely well-positioned. amazon was very well-positioned as the new economies, the internet companies, all of that. microsoft, really where cloud is going to drive over the next several years is in the mass market, middle of the country, where microsoft has such a stronghold at this point, given all of these companies have used soft for so long. they are a trusted partner. amazon will continue to do well, microsoft has an extreme position on the cloud chair front. jonathan: on the last earning calls a couple of quarters ago, same we have seen two years of digital transformation into m

shannon: welcome to fox news at night. we begin with a fox news alert, federal agents in seattle opening a new front in the battle over the use of federal law enforcement in america's most progressive city, the fbi says it is not ideology, and in portland they just arrested 18 people on various charges for assaulting federal offices, arson and property damage. also the president says he often regret some of his tweets, this taps a week of notable changes by the president in his briefings and his comments toward political adversaries. we will talk about with jenna ellis and aggressive progressive chris on. general jack keane is here on a topic near and dear to my heart, a new cold war for control of the final frontier with russia testing new missiles that may be designed to take out our satellites but we begin with the politics of the protest. >> federal offices in portland gearing up for another night of violence at 8:00 pm on the west coast and it is not without a degree of personal danger, the white house is a federal ag

hi, shannon. great job this morning and throughout the last couple weeks will be actually getting supreme court rulings. i am curious what you think the next move will be for cyber cy vance. deutsche bank said they will comply with the subpoena that is coming. what the administration is going to say now in terms of pushback against the argument that the majority has made, that no one is above the law. this is an argument that people have been making as president trump since the beginning. everybody has released their tax returns except for him. if you have any thoughts on how they will keep defending against that, i'd love to hear it. >> as you know, and as you noted, the companies have always said, "when we get the final legal ruling, will comply. we won't fight the subpoenas ourselves." the compliance will definitely come. that underlying principle that a president has to comply with a federal subpoena is definitely set in stone. what is interesting is, at the very end of the majority opinion, h
