To the 2020 election. Fox business Grady Trimble in fullerton county, georgia with lates it was a late night grady. It was cheryl the indictment came down i believe, around 11 00 last night all told 19 defendants face 41 felony charges among former President Trump oppose o could codefendant former chief of staff mark meadows hern rudy giuliani, eastman trump facing 13 charges from racketeering to multiple conspirators charges and others. These charges specimen from president his staff, lawyers alleged attempt to change results of the 2020 election in georgia. The former president has posted on truth social, maintaining innocence attacking the District Attorney in the case republicans are once again questioning the timing of the indictment. The middle of the election cycle and just after the appointment of a special counsel to investigate hunter biden. This is joe biden and this is the democrats weaponizing the Justice System because they are afraid of the voters. This is disgrace wrong abuse of power by angry if democrats decided the rule of law doesnt matter to them anywhere. House democrats in house and senate say in the a joint at the same time latest details how president before, to steal election undermine xho democracy overturn will of people of georgia actions by fullerton county District Attorney along with other state and federal prosecutors, reaffirms shared belief that in america no one not even the president is above the law. As for next step the District Attorney here in fullerton county fani willis has given all the codefendants until august 26 a week from this friday to turn themselves in, she also suggested that she wants the trial to start within the next six months, cheryl as you know would be smackdab in the middle of the primary and caucus season. Cheryl absolutely, Grady Trimble thank you, again for that live report, from georgia todd piro you are my colleague also former attorney talk about criminal enterprise this is the where she chose to go with this, 75 witness 2 1 2 years investigation, i mean what do you make of the fact that it is racketeering . It do you think she is weaponizing the law to make a political statement first and foremost but also does the case havelegged in your opinion. Todd first question yes specifically racketeering, rico, was incidented to get mobsters the secret cabals a host of illegality aspired to arrive at illegal solutions to illegal problems, that is ultimately what rico was designed this is political with regard to the decision that is strategic at the end of the day look at number charged 19 people charged the reason you do that inevitably one if not more than one is going to flip you are going to get the big fish that you want donald j. Trump if fani willis you campaigned on getting donald j. Trump i point out you heard, Grady Trimble i am going back to time as lawyer i was a lawyer 4 1 2 years i got tiny case mundane case goes longer than six months you think with all witnesses testimony to be eliciteding depositions, pretrial motions not decided in six months much less the trial itself i see no way that that happens. Cheryl bay this is fourth indictment jessica so to talk to you about want to talk trial dates the daniels case in new york date of for a while march 25. So next spring, then maralago classified documents scheduled date may 20 she is saying six months. Jessica coordinated effort anybody . You know i think, in terms of the impact on him, the election, you have too republicans roughly, with trump no matter what hard nz their commitment, the interesting part politically, of course, middle section, what does that do does that make people say hold on there is something wrong here in the system we are going to support him or make them say we dont want this baggage. Cheryl to the point of what grady said six months i agree with todd incredibly unrealistic, i dont any any way at the same time, you know,this case was about georgia case, is that she also included, there is other states in this not just fullerton county, georgia talking michigan arizona pennsylvania nevada new mexico a broad reaching swipe she has taken. Todd touches on something you asked, what is the ordered of all these . And how is this going to work she was asked hey if you spoken with jack smith guy doing the other two she wouldnt comment on that, to your point on why she is invoking statutes in other states that is a great point, any time you go outside of your state, then it becomes a federal matter if she is supposed to only do work of the people of georgia specifically fullerton county, georgia if going to other jurisdictions that begs the question. Cheryl criminal enterprise operated in other states. A federal matter diversity jurisdictions in civil procedure 101, Alan Dershowitz big dime democrat big dime lawyer worked for al o gore in 2000 the hanging chads he said tame process to contest election on be lav of although gore multiple attorneys spoke with was that criminal enterprise along lines of a rico violations . No, i wrote a bestselling book being about this how you are supposed to do these trump does something similar he and 19 individuals are indicted. Cheryl it is stunning, we will talk about that before the show is over, coming up, President Biden touting bidenomics yet again this time in in in milwaukee, up of watching mornings with maria live on fox business.

Jessica i was curious is there Anything Congress can do to push back on effect of antiinflation act a Congressional Review Act can be invoked a policy rider on of appropriations i know passed not implemented i am wondering if political will to push back. I think circulate should be inflation is a serious issue, it is driving the cost of goods, sold, up to where people cant afford it. And inflation, you know, the we got to quit spending quit printing money quit borrowing printed money let competition work let Small Business main street america sell products, and so, the inflation situation, is a real crisis, i remember 1981 Ronald Reagan took 10 years to eventually get out of it we are in that position right now the difference is between now and 812, in 81 inventories to sell day we do not. Home business the fda guzman refusing, guzman claims it is 36 billion congressman you have been trying to get answers on this you know you have, a lot of americans are furious about the amount of fraud in the covid relief money that was he doled out what can you tell us is happening now.

When you got administer willing to write this money off this is a reseifble to america.

Congressman Roger Williams a hotbutton issue on that border, immigration, thank you, sir. For being here. Thank you. Thank you cheryl. All right. A lot more coming up how markets are moving ahead of july retail sales getting numbers about 11 minutes, former toys r us ceo target vice chairman here with his expectations, coming up next. Its not just designed to look good. Its built to command attention. Its not just a comfortable interior. Its a quiet refuge. Theyre not just headlights. They light the way forward. The new fully electric audi q8 etron models. Meet the future. A chef. A designer. And, ooh, an engineer. All learning to save and spend their money with chase. The chefs cooking up firsts with her new debit card. Hungry . Uhuh. The designers eyeing sequins. Uh no plaid. While mom is eyeing his spending. Nice. And the engineer . Shes taking control with her own account for college. Three futures, all with chase. Freedom for kids. Control for parents. One bank for both. Chase. Make more of whats yours. Cheryl take a look at futures we do have red across the board right now in fact escalation in the last 30 minutes dow down 271 premarket nasdaq down 81, s p down 29 and change we are getting july retail sales coming out in exactly 6 minutes from now, economists expecting monthovermonth, sales of and exauto to rise 4 10 of a percent i bring in former toys r us ceo former target vice chairman. Retail sales all eyes on consumer we want to know if there if pressure inflation if pulling back we in other charging credit cards traveling also dipping into savings. Absolutely, the consumer remains very stressed, if you look at sales of things forget experiences, things merchandise that you hold, touch if you look on real basis adjusted for inflation theyve been negative 10 straight months, 11th straight month we see that people spending more getting less. And, of course, due to inflation, it is due to fact they are savings running out now on credit cards but Interest Rates going way up a lot of a lot of parts of their lives, you know necessities are going up in cost, so they are having to put up money for that looking down future we have the lone repayment coming up soon a lot more money taken out of Discretionary Spending consumers are spending on what they need to buy not what they want. Getting walmart out this week we learned last quarter from walmart is that wealthier consumers high end consumers going to walmart for groceries. For decades i would say since 1961 same year, by the way, target walmart kmart began since then true that walmart does better when consumer is stressed so that is all you have to see to know what is going on walmart has been doing consistently better throughout this year by a lot not just sales where obviously, true i expect walmart positive in samestore sales, target to be negative but not just sales but profits in stock market walmart up target down, so that has been a pattern for decades, i believe true walmart executing better doing a better job of staying in stock, Meeting Needs of consumer target has been struggling since the pandemic. Let me ask how amazon figuring into that competition, big bucks i think walmart has done best job blurring that online in store experience i wonder we know how to think about walmart how do we maybe think about amazon. Great question amazon has done very well shelf stable merchandise something you can keep, everyone has not cracked food code walmart strength largest grocer in the world in the universe a brilliant job of harnessing internet to drive more food, walmart when you drive to the store put in trunk doing that in droves biggest increase secretly in walmart internet, amazon is weak being. Target earnings this week, last quart they told us about you up shrinkage retail a massive hit on retail multimilliondollar loss to them, stock is flat. I am wondering if they are going to mention with regards to that pride fiasco from june stock did take a hit the company took a financial hit going to have to be reported in this quarter. No doubt that hurts in short term i dont believe that for target that is something of a longterm effect the way that you see bud light situation so appears come and passed for target more fundamental in terms of inventory in stock are they on strategy or not at target because Stores Starting to change in ways, that make them more like walmart than they used to be not good thing for target. Maybe rhetorical question i dont understand when you cross that rubicon when it comes to retail theft you stay at this point we need to step in stop it all merchandise is being stolen, as somebody that i had ceo decision, how do you calculate to that to normal people should be zero the management that managers assets protection in stores we call it sales prevention what they want to do is lock everything up will release theft reduce theft and sales, given, sales locking away closing the store where to make more money by doing that, or leaving it out letting people steal what you are seeing increasingly is that you theft has risen bar moved from more Stores Closing in san francisco, portland, chicago walmart closed where do i start locking up merchandise knowing going to hurt me where do i do that you see more lock up. Why not hire extra security guards for small amount of money say were, ending it here like no longer going to tolerate this going to prosecute individuals. It seems you would get bad let me say out of the store. Mr. Attorney you need a d. A. To not every d. A. Is alvin bragg. O i agree you see cameras in the store people around, burly people watching checking, doing all that at the end of the day really is you think that crook got it dont want tackling criminals in the store not trained the way Law Enforcement is dont have same rights to tackle someone you gather evidence deter crime look to police to the local Law Enforcement, officials and d. A. To prosecute people you cant really do it yourself. I dont understand how in business, duane reade, in washington you are right there is a balancing act between definitely not bought something i dont want to call someone over unlock it everyone knows what you are buying whatever i have had to run to Grocery Store a couple weeks ago it was chaos, security guards sort of there like, getting paid not seeming to do anything about it. Retail sales for july released, this is interesting, they came in stronger than expected and, again, these numbers not adjusted for inflation, we know inflation is still strong, but. 7 was monthovermonth number. The estimate was for. 4 so came in hotter than expected on that, if you strip out autos look at this, 1 , is the gain and the estimate was for. 4 , a big jump at autos on this, the yearoveryear we did not have an estimate going into the number for the are the yearoveryear came in 3. 2 , so very strong nuns, very strong he betterthanexpected still flat not gain, particularly when you look at retail sales not the total just physical goods up 2 , inflation was up 3 socioyou are kind of down in sales, the internet very strong i see up 10 , restaurants up 12 in that number, overall, Department Stores down 3 yearoveryear, so again still see struggling on the part of people like macys et cetera,. 4 that number was negative. Down 21 yearoveryear keep in mind you know. A still rising on short term Building Materials down 3 walmart reported down 2 this morning beating market if you will in that category overall stronger report than expected, certainly, best that we had in a long time, so i think good news. Cheryl it is good news unfortunately, the dow selling off more after this number crossed i dont know if a correlation or not one thing this could portend to going to get more bad news, from to your point about construction, housing we talked a lot about if getting a number from lowes we saw we got home depot this morning have a was double beat still, yearoveryear down not as bad as expected but people still spending on small. I bet worst than home depot they were down 2 segment down 3 we saw number from census, that is what lowes is down worse than i bet you right now overall, real sales one thing you mentioned auto way up, up like 7. 6 yearoveryear that drove, retail everything that is largely a pandemic effect because if you remember a year ago you couldnt get it high Interest Rates people buying cars good health for the economy look at layers here to understand. Cheryl thank you so much for being have ever, we appreciate it. We are going to be right back, everybody. I have type 2 diabetes, but i manage it well.

That post has over 8 million views. Wow. Headline. A grand jury in fullerton county, georgia indicting former President Donald Trump and 1 allies, 18 al elizabeth fourth time indicted this year trump charged with 13 counts anybodying georgia antiracketeering law, conspiracy fall, statements acting asking officials to violate oath of office, fani willis, giving until august 25 to surrender, may mailman joined me earlier here is what she had to say. When you read the indictment, it is a kitchen sink it is mark meadows asking for someones phone number emails have nothing to do with trump or what trump asked it is a people doing thing, and the rico statute says i am going to take all of those things, and im going to pin them apane to Group Criminal enterprise that criminal enterprise she is saying involves donald trump. Joining me Christopher Bedford good morning, your first reaction, to this fourth indictment of the former president . I kind of agree it is a little bit of a kitchen sink, rico kind of law United States used to take down organizes crime in the past, trying to use it against a former president current leading political challenger to joe biden, 19 different people indicted like she mentioned, people made phone calls do you mean to starts off with the idea donald trump lost it state of georgia, knew that but style to overturn it, that lone is going to be very difficult thing to prove a basis of a lot of what is being throne at donald trump in four diamonds under i think a hope from people prosecutors trying to get famous on state level federal level if they keep up, stacking up legal fees perp walks this stuff they will sink the candidacy of donald trump. So far much fot consternation of so many he has been many consistently rising in the polls even people think President Trump did something wrong after election after,act inappropriately still think law is politicized against him o identifying look for american Justice System. Cheryl my colleague todd piro onset in new york updated point earlier you charge multiple people 19 people for this indictment see who is going to flip. That is generally the way they do it organizered crime with trying to do that with president right now the president has to pay a lot of legal fees legal bills to keep people loyal this is something trying to do a long time racking up millions on legal fees trump, hope they flip them get immunity that is the kind of electronic arm tactics we saw this before grand jury was finished with testimony, earlier in the day before taken down on web site shows d. A. Determined really ahead of the game someone who is already decided the outcome of this before it even started. Todd get in here i am glad christopher is bringing this up bothered me noon hour yesterday, headlines crossing from court web site last night said those were false they werent. Those were charged up there interviewing two witnesses. Really good questions about that, saying how did this happen christopher either one of two things either she has no o idea how the Clerks Office works, as the d. A. , of fullerton county or coincidence the charges posted well before grand jury concluded their testimony. Innocent mistake i guess, when one are you buying any of it . I think it is the latter i think semis something investigation going on, for 2 1 2 years, talking about this, but any casual observer would have gone on previous four years could have told you over next couple years if donald trump, he is going to face from all corners United States attorneys running on this, in new york people promising in washington, d. C. , everyone says were coming for former President Donald Trump going to get you dont care if we double down on charges if we try to legally relitigate failed impeachment efforts we are going to come and come and come after you, i think i dont think it had effect they would like obviously, cost a lot of money, campaign reserves for sure hasnt hit popularity because so a thoroughly i want to ask you about, this the white house, claiming yesterday that there is no evidence that President Biden was involved are in hunters foreign business dealings. If you think what republicans in congress tried for years right making claims, of allegations, right . About President Donald Trump what the result of that if you ask yourself what we have seen from that keep turning up documents witnesses shows president wasnt involved never discussed these business dealings did nothing wrong there has been zero evidence showing, showing otherwise. Cheryl christopher not sure that is correct but your reaction. Anyways not correct at all, baldfaced lie president tied by multiple witnesses, hurp hunter former Business Partner two meetings involved with hunter and Business Partners hunter would say listen, dad i need you to come in talk to people i am trying to do business with, he would show up at meeting have at least two known cases foreign oligarchs, passing money, shortly after the white house story changes from never discussed business to never benefited was involved to now can you approve there is a video somewhere of joe biden, accepting cash, an interesting thing to whole dance never any time did they say hunter didnt do anything wrong or had skills or biden family doing legitimate business at the tried to insulate the president the more whistleblowers coming ford interviews done by congress doj stone stonewalled direct evidenced linking president to these business dealings. Washington post is now saying maybe the president s conduct President Bidens cut want perfect. Christopher good to see you, good to see you. Thank you. All right.

To our top story of the morning, donald trump indicted for a fourth time in georgia alongside 18 defendants, related to the 2020 election. As we look at these new charges against the former president , two big take aways, she wants this to go to trial in six months, seems impossible to me and the website debacle with the cord experience yesterday. Six months. Think about it. Think of the charges. Think of the individual involved, donald trump, all that goes with that. Now at 18 other defendants all presumably with their own accounts. I understand she wants these cases to be tried in one trial. That is extremely unlikely because lets say one of those individuals has a statement that goes against one of the other individuals, they have to break out that trial and have a separate trial. You dont think these individuals have statements that contradict each other . That we 6month notion is outlandish. To your other point, lets call it what it is. It looks like they came up with the indictment before the grand jury finished deliberations. Looks bad. They have two more witnesses to interview, they interviewed 75 in total fair enough but already have those ready to go. To come without before it should have it makes more confusion and trouble against the other side, gives them an excuse. Cheryl final thoughts. This is the fourth indictment against the former president and he says on truth social this is political, why didnt she file these charges to and 1 2 years ago . Lauren one of our other guests made the point these cost money to defend. This is money that cannot be used to run a campaign. Pay attention to that. Cheryl all right, pay a lot of attention to both of you this morning, thanks for being with me. Maria will be back tomorrow. Great to have you with me. My time is up as someone likes to say that i work with, the same is true. Stuart good morning. My time is just beginning. This Program Covers money and politics. We have big news on both. First off, the new trump indictment, the fourth in the last five months, the full in county georgia Prosecutor Says trump is a racketeer. Trump and 18 codefendants will be t
