Troops would be removed from the region several lawmakers are growing concerned over the possible genocide of our kurdish allies. Militants have launched several suicide attacks already. Several lawmakers are calling on nato to help avoid a humanitarian disaster. I think nato needs to step up and we need to do our part in congress.

Reporter the president threatened sanctions if the company follows through with its plans. Back to you. Lauren thank you.

Maybe ill win saved by zero lauren the trade talks between the u. S. And china became more complicated when the Trump Administration expanded its list of black listed chinese firms because of alleged human rights violations. That will make todays sitdown with negotiators pretty uncomfortable. Riley walters is here. How do you negotiate when tensions are this high . I think were in the sticker shock of things. Certainly, the announcement was a surprise. I dont think negotiators, both the u. S. Or chinese negotiators were really expecting this or were looking forward to negotiating within this context but weve had these instanceses before. I dont think its going to throw negotiations off in the long term. It will sour talks this week but eventually theyll come back to negotiating table and i think these things will continue to progress as weve seen over the last couple years. Lauren im so curious what can come out of any type of discussion when were black listing Chinese Companies and now this morning china is vowing retaliation for the u. S. Visa ban on some chinese officials. Theyre threatening to do the same. Chinas always reciprocated, whether its with tariffs, as weve seen over the last two years, or right now with the visa reciprocation. Theres a bit of a difference here. I think at least for the united states, we have a moral obligation here to punish china and the way that they abuse the minorities within china, and so the u. S. Is responding to that. And so its honestly long overdue. It should be done outside of the context of the trade negotiations. We should be punishing china for human rights violations, whether theres a trade deal or not. Lauren we might have to get used to a world where we might never get a trade deal. Riley walters, thank you very much. Cheryl investors are looking for a trade deal in the souring relations between china and the u. S. Have really hit financial markets. Federal reserve said it will increase the purchases of shortterm treasury securities. For more on this, lets bring in dominic from diversified private wealth advisors. He said we had to go after china for human rights violations. For companies and businesses trying to do business in china, this is hurting them and its going to get worse for boeing, caterpillar, et cetera. Yesterday, a couple days before the negotiations are going to restart, basically the administration punched them twice in the face. This is not how you start a negotiation. They had gotten to a limb peace offering, delay of tariffs, but cheryl the markets, dominic, this has caused nothing but volatility and heartburn for not just the investment banks and traders on the desks in new york city but for average people looking at their portfolios. Companies like caterpillar, boeing, these are significant events and clearly the markets are reacting appropriately. If we go into a global recession, global earnings, Company Earnings are going to be significantly affected. So yesterdays pullback was just that. Hey, weve got to Pay Attention to whats going on here. Cheryl im glad you brought up earnings. As were coming into the Third Quarter reporting season, estimates are we are going to see down numbers year over year and were going to that china story is going to hit a lot of outu. S. Companies. We came in thinking the Third Quarter we would earn 34 on th s p,s its been brought dn about 10 lower. We may get pleasant surprises. The markets are always looking forward. If we get into a real, nasty, significant trade challenge with china, earnings could go significantly down, the markets could go significantly down. Cheryl i think were braceing for that. Were going to go backwards now. It will be interesting to see the dialogue, the back and forth. We werent talking about an october cut. Now youve got an 80 plus percent chance you are going of to get an october cut. The he meeting, two weeks from you now.

Lauren a new report casting more light on the possible political motivations of the whistleblower regarding the president s ukraine call. Byron york, wash b to washingtor respondent is reporting the whistleblower had a professional tie to one of the democratic president ial candidates for 2020. Joining us now, Washington Examiner commentary writer kayla mcgee. Questions this morning, which candidate and how does that conflict of interest, if you will, change the impeachment inquiry and the circumstances . First of all, we dont know what candidate the whistleblower allegedly has ties to and we dont know what kind of relationship it is. So there are a lot of questions that we still need answers to. But it really does call into question the motivations of the whistleblower complaint. Doesnt really change the content. We know for the most part what the whistleblower said is indeed true in terms of the ukraine phone call transcript and now we have have another whistleblower saying the same thing. The motivation, those we should be questioning those at this point. Lauren we certainly will. At least we are here on this network. It begs the he question, how much of this is just noise. I want you to look at this wall street journal nbc poll. It finds that 55 , so the majority of folks think, yeah, this impeachment inquiry is warranted, yet 39 say not enough to remove the president from office, just let him finish his term. How do voters feel about this . It really does seem like the American People are just kind of tired of the controversy at this point. Theyre done with the back and forth. But they do want answers moving forward. But it does seem that theyre really hesitant to pass judgment on the president until they have those answers which also brings up the question, why wont pelosi and the righ rest of thee democrats allow republicans to subpoena their own witnesses and do their own investigation. Lauren do you think they have the 217 votes they need in the house . As of right now it seems like they would have enough democrats on their side to pass the impeachment measure and pelosi hasnt brought this to the floor for a vote because she says the democrats still have a lot of investigating to do. But thats not really a good excuse at this point because shes breaking a lot of impeachment precedent. Weve seen in the clinton impeachment, the nixon impeachment, and even going back as far to andrew johnson, that the house has always brought it of a floor vote and then moved forward from there. Lauren the constitution doesnt require that. Thats just press den. The wall street Journal Editorial Board writes this, democrats closed hearings and selective leaks wont persuade the public and through all of the this, the president s Approval Rating remains about 43 . So what does that say to you about what the democrats are doing and how h voters are reacting to it . The democrats are continuing to play this political game as if 2016 didnt mean anything. It did. They elected President Trump because theyre sick of the political games and posturing and they wanted a president to shake things up and change that and nothing about that has changed. The fact that the democrats are going to try and use did exact same maneuvers that they have been is just not working. Lauren and everything that theyre doing to keep the whistleblowers identity secret, perhaps testimony off of capitol hill, it just gets more interesting. Kaley mcgee, thank you for your perspective. Thank you. Cheryl heres a question for you. Does special counsel sell Robert Mueller contradict sworn testimony about pursuing a job with the fbi while under oath. My understanding, i was not applying for the job. I was asked to give my input on what it would the take to do the job. Cheryl well, officials have told fox news exclusively that mueller was seeking the fbi director post when he first met with President Trump back in 2017. Emails obtained by Judicial Watch show mueller knew he could be named special counsel if he wasnt chosen. Mueller ran the agency under president s bush and obama. He has not returned a request from fox for comment. A new Bipartisan Senate report reinforces the findings of other investigations that russia used an array of social media efforts to try to influence the 2016 election.

She has the details. Reporter good morning, lauren and cheryl. House democrats are laser focused on impeachment on capitol hill, nancy pelosi is busy focusing on another item on her agenda, lowering the cost of prescription drugs. In seattle yesterday, pelosi says she wants to make sure under her plan that u. S. Consumers pay the same price that patients overseas pay for the same prescriptions. Whatever that price is, it says that in the u. S. The companies cannot charge more than under 20 of that. This is a absolutely essential. I believe that we can do this in a nonpartisan or buy bipartisa. The president says he wants to do this. I take that sincerely. Reporter the big makes changes that would help drugs become more affordable. It lets the federal government negotiate with Drug Companies for about 250 drugs supplied by medicare right now. Pelosis plan punishes Drug Companies that dont want to negotiate prices with a 65 excise tax on drug sales and increases by 10 every quarter. It would cap seniors outofpocket drug costs at 2,000 a year for prescriptions. Pelosi says she thinks congress can reach a compromise on lowering costs for consumers by the end of this year. Lauren and cheryl. Cheryl hillary, thank you. That could be good news for folks out there. For reaction, lets bring in drd certified physician in new york city. What do you make of this. Do you think the Drug Companies, which you have to work with and have a relationship with as a doctor, do you think theyll come to the table and work with the government . They have to and if they dont were already seeing theyll be fined millions of dollars, just like malinot was raised millions of dollars. Cheryl, the exorbitant drug prices i see it firsthand, theyre having a major many impact on patients. Blood pressure medicines, asthma medicines, epipens, di diabetes patients, they cant afford insulin. Ive had patients that couldnt afford copays for insulin medicine. They ended up in the icu on insulin drips because the blood ph went too low, because they couldnt afford medications. We definitely need to take action. With b Nancy Pelosis plan, she wants to put negotiations, allow for negotiations on about 250 medications but who is to choose what those 250 medications are. Cheryl maybe the government thinks they can do better. I dont know. I want to move on to something else. The number one topic for voters for 2020 is healthcare, obviously and the 2020 democrats have all these different plans. Medicare follow all being the most vocal plan weve heard from person ben and elizabetbernie sh warren. What would that mean for me, if we got rid of private insurance, what does that mean for the average person out there. I think medicare for all means more taxes for everyone and less options. I know firsthand, it doesnt work. I know firsthand, for example, look at the va, government run healthcare, its a mess. Its a disaster. Our president had to pass the mission act to allow our veterans access to private healthcare just so they wouldnt have to wait months to see a doctor or wait months to get healthcare, to get procedure done. And so just last week our president also passed an executive order to allow more options on Medicare Advantage plan. Cheryl he came up with his own plan. More options. Cheryl were showing the candidates that support medicare for all or some form of it. Many candidates dont and joe biden is one of them. He wants to expand on obamacare and his plan would cost 750 billion, according to estimates. But what about that . What about fi fixing obamacare. Ultimately, were going to end up paying more taxes on the back end. We need to focus on getting lower drug prices, selling healthcare across state lines, we need transparency. Cheryl which obamacare didnt do, by the way. Yeah. Trantransparency of procedures, transparency of costs from hospital to hospital. More Health Savings accounts. We need portability. We need to have more fda involvement to expedite the approval of new innovations, new types of procedures and drugs to help more affordable options. Cheryl the more you have a government in our healthcare system, you dont get that and thats whats so worrisome about some of these plans. Thank you for your medical opinion on this. Its very helpful. Lauren, over to you. Lauren up next, the nba blackout by china, could the growing backlash keep teams off the court there today and will the nba put principle over profit or cave to chinas communist pressure .

Nba commissioner adam silver is scheduled to address the controversy sparked by the rockets general manager and comments he made in support of hong kong protesters. The commissioner expected to talk about this with chinese officials today. Cheryl here to weigh in, matt napolitano. Lets talk about the value of china to the nba. This is a 4 billion price tag. Many feel in this country that the nba is ignoring what brought them to the table and that is american fans. S thats the issue that adam silver tried to bring up during yesterdays press conference where he said we stand with darryl mauery who tweeted out a photo showing his support standing with the pro democracy protesters in hong kong. They turned around and were trying to quell everything. They said they were standing behind his right to speak his mind. China tv said they dont want anybody that will go against the state to have any rights to the airways. Theyre cutting off ties with the nba right now. The streaming service in china said they are getting requests for refunds because rockets fans and other nba fans dont want to tune in anymore. So its a lot underway to deal with today for adam silver l. They canceled the press conference scheduled for this morning. Well see if he has anything to say later in the day. Lauren this is a wakeup call for all businesses doing business in china because you look at their size and what that means to your corporate bottom line but you have to value the american way of life and stand you up for it. We saw south park coming out of it this week, talking about how were trying to cater to chinese values when we have to look at whats going on stateside and the bottom line right here. Cheryl what about the criticism with steve kerr because he refuses to talk about it. The bigger issue is that steve kerr is known for being very outspoken on a number of topics, things from President Trump, be it gun control, and hes staying radio silent on this, makes everyone question if hes so concerned about his own bottom line, if theres League Officials whispering in his ear. He claims he reached out to his brotherinlaw who is a ria chinese history professor to get more detail on this.
