David spunt has reaction from the white house, but we begin with dan springer who is in seattle. Dan . Yeah, jon, it was all a show of solidarity with whats going on in portland. Here in seattle, there was about a dozen protests across the country here in seattle. Protesters were pretty peaceful for the first couple of hours, but then Seattle Police declared a riot, once their east precinct came under attack. Also before that, arsonists torched five construction trailers. They set them on fire where a youth center is being built. Protesters smashed windows, painted graffiti on many businesses and threw commercial grade fireworks at police. But spd had the upper hand throughout, making 45 arrests. They did use pepper spray, blast balls and foam bullets, all the tools that the city council tried to take away from them, but late friday night, the federal judge blocked the law agreeing with the department of justice that it would likely lead to more use of force. Portland saw its 59th straight night of protest. Again last night some in the huge crowd broke through the fence surrounding the federal courthouse. Federal police fired many rounds of tear gas. The deputy secretary of dhs is begging city leaders to work with federal Law Enforcement. Their own mayor, who is also the police commissioner, ties the hands of his own police, and so the federal officers there are left to defend that courthouse and Federal Buildings without local cooperation, which is very rare to not have local cooperation at the Law Enforcement level. You see some of the results. Things got violent in oakland when arsonists set part of a courthouse on fire. Oakland mayor a vocal critic of President Trump said the violence was playing into trumps reelection strategy, asking Peaceful Protesters to stop, providing cover at night for those only interested in anarchy. One man is dead. Another is in Police Custody in austin, texas, after a shooting at a protest there. The victim was a protester who was armed with a rifle. The suspect drove his car into a crowd, then shot the victim as he approached. Also, shots rang out in aurora, colorado, and three black militia members in louisville were injured in whats being called an accidental shooting there. I have to point out, jon, that port land is the only city of all of these protests where the federal Law Enforcement engaged. It didnt happen in seattle, even though they had some people from the federal government, federal Police Officers on the ground here. Jon . Jon dan springer in seattle, dan, lots to keep an eye on, thank you. Meantime, President Trump is expanding operation legend, sending federal agents to several cities to protect federal property amid ongoing unrest. David spunt has the latest from bridgewater, new jersey, where the president spent the weekend. David . Hi, jon. Well President Trump back at the white house. He just landed on the south lawn about 15 minutes ago. He has a lot on his plate this coming week, with Congress Going out for the august recess, talking about the insurance and talking about that money for those people that are no longer receiving paychecks. Also the violence and the unrest in many cities. Now, speaking of that violence, you just saw in dan springers report, seattle is now considered a riot zone. Authorities officially considered it a riot zone last night. A lot of unrest. Authorities made about two dozen arrests. The president continues to pitch himself to the American People as the president of law and order. The white house is increasingly focusing on portland, oregon, where unrest has gone on for approaching 60 nights. As you mentioned, the president expanding operation legend, named after a 4yearold legend talaferro a little boy shot and killed while sleeping in his home in kansas city. Authority still looking for little legends killer. Operation legend sends federal agents to hot spots around the country to protect federal property, like the statues we have been seeing coming down. Authorities right now say the initial list includes the cities, but will eventually expand. Operation legend is really designed to make sure that those moms and dads who have lost loved ones, who have lost kids and grand kids and perhaps kids that have lost their parents because of Gang Violence in these cities, that we come in in a very covert way to investigate and work alongside local Law Enforcement. Chief of staff mark meadows you saw him right there, he and treasury secretary mnuchin were on capitol hill this afternoon working on a deal with republicans, 600 weekly unemployment checks no longer going out to anxious americans laid off during the covid crisis. As i mentioned with the august recess, that kicks in at the end of this week, so many anxious americans are not only losing those checks. They are losing patience. They want republicans and democrats to come together, get this done, certainly President Trump is going to be monitoring it all as we look over the next few days. Jon . Jon david spunt in bridgewater, new jersey, thank you. Today marks 100 days until election day, and joe bidens Campaign Says it is firing on all cylinders accelerating its staff and increasing ads spending in battleground states. But the Presumptive Democratic nominee is missing one key component, his running mate. Jacqui heinrich is live with more on that. Jacqui . Jon, four women on the vp short list took to television this weekend to talk about the campaign, including california congresswoman karen bass, who is generating buzz that her stock is rising. I am so concerned about where our country is at this point in time. We have had a president that has just torn us apart, and im willing to serve my country in whatever way im called upon to serve my country. A politico article called bass the antikamala harris, often shying away from the spotlight and someone who would not outshine biden. Shes also quietly worked on race and healthcare issues for years, two key campaign issues. But there is criticism she may be seen as having a little ambition for a White House Run of her own. Susan rice, val demings, and Michelle Grisham also made television appearances. The Biden Campaign is ramping up ads, dropping 14 1 2 Million Dollars for a blitz in six battleground states. They also just spent 15 million on ads last week. The Trump Campaign outspent biden on digital and tv ads, nearly every week, since the start of the general Election Campaign in april, according to advertising analytics. Republicans are getting their message out in other ways too. Rnc chair mcdaniel wrote in a fox news oped with their unity manifes manifesto, it is clear joe biden is controlled by sanders and the rest of the radical left, singing the siren song of socialism as the alternative to freedom and division of our founders. Republicans are campaigning on bidens Enthusiasm Gap saying that points to likely reelection for President Trump, and this is all of course despite bidens consistent lead lately in the polls. Jon . Jon jacqui heinrich, more on that just ahead. Thank you. Now, look at the Trump Campaign as the 100 day countdown to the november election begins. Joining us now is co chair of the group 2020 women for trump and former Florida Attorney general, pam bondi. Thank you very much for being here this evening. I want to point you to the latest results of a fox news poll in three of the battleground states, michigan, minnesota, and pennsylvania. In all three of them, trump President Trump runs behind joe biden, and in all three of them, it is outside the margin of error, does that worry you . Not at all because i was with President Trump on the campaign trail in 2016, and the polls were showing almost identical similar things. Yes, we were behind in every poll. You know, and these polls too, it shows lets just take michigan for example. It shows us down by 9 but 11 of those voters are undecided. 7. 6 of those polls in michigan werent registered voters. So we couldnt rely on those last time. We are not going to rely on those this time. I tell you, our ground game is second to none. We have 300 staffers on the ground. Were adding 1500 more field staff, and weve doubled, doubled getting people registered to vote. We have 1. 5 million volunteers on the ground. You know our data, our technology, thats unparalleled. No one can compete with that. Nor can they compete with what President Trump is doing online. Jon, i can tell you, when we talk about these polls, i was just in wisconsin a few weeks ago. This past week i was in maine and New Hampshire with women for trump with laura trump and others, and we were seeing victory in those states. We were seeing people come out to support us, and they were happy to be there to support the president. Do we rely on the polls . No. We rely on what were seeing every single day in our country. You know what . Women especially, we did a lot with women of course, roundtables. Women care about the economy and jobs and also care about keeping their kids and families safe. That right now is so important to the country. Jon let me go ahead, yeah. Jon you mentioned the economy, and i want to put up the fox news polling results from those same three battleground states. Who do you trust to do a better job on the economy . President trump wins michigan by 3, pennsylvania by 5, and loses minnesota by a point, but again, that is inside the margin of error. So at least two out of three you can say the president has the edge, and most people vote the economy when they go into the voting booth. And jon, you know, this is as we know, whats happening in our country right now is unprecedented and in our lifetime, and not only the economy, but what we were seeing on the ground with these women in these three states i just talked about, they care about law and order. They want to get their kids back to school. Economy, school none of that matters if the United States of america is not a safe place to live. President trump is the law and order president. What do we have joe biden saying on an interview . He said that the police have become the enemies. One of his staffers said police are worse than pigs. And thats you know, hes got this Unity Task Force with Bernie Sanders and dont let that fool you. That is a radical left wing mob, and, you know, whether they say reimagine police. Why do we want to reimagine police right now . We need police now more than ever. Your correspondent talked about operation legend. President trump is out there, protecting our cities. He will continue to protect our cities. Thats another reason think about this, Police Unions typically dont support republicans. The National Association of police organizations, over 240,000 members, they just endorsed President Trump, and i think they are probably going to be more to come as well. Jon all right, pam bondi, the co chair of women for trump. Thanks very much. Thank you. Jon meantime, new u. S. Coronavirus cases are on the rise. Johns hopkins reporting 4. 2 million u. S. Cases with more than 146,000 deaths. Meanwhile, this fourmonth trend chart shows a surge in americas daily case number, as the daily death toll trends higher as well. Christina coleman live with more on that from los angeles. Christina . Hi, jon. Well, texas is trending down in its total number of cases in their sevenday average, but they are seeing a rise in covid19 deaths, just reported 153 new fatalities since yesterday. Florida has now surpassed the once hard hit state of new york in total cases with more than 423,000 infections. Florida now second in the nation in cases to california. However, florida is still behind california and way behind new york in their number of covid19 fatalities. Also, theres growing concern of the virus moving up north. Dr. Birx is warning officials from at least 11 major metropolitan areas, including baltimore, pittsburgh and cleveland to take aggressive action to mitigate their outbreaks to prevent them from becoming the next covid19 hot spot. The numbers are not looking good. Were seeing, thank goodness, a plateauing in florida and arizona and texas, which have been the epicenters. Californias about the same. But were seeing a new set of states emerge as new epicenters. Delays in covid19 testing results still a major concern, as federal officials trying to accurately track hot spots, do Contract Tracing and disseminate resources to fight this virus. Heres the Trump Administrations Testing Coordinator on cnn today. We are never going to be happy with testing until we get turnaround times within 24 hours, and i would be happy with point of care testing everywhere. We are not there yet. We are doing everything we can to do that. The twoweek turnaround, again i told you the data, it is 4. 27 days for half of those tests that are done in the commercial labs. Im highly confident that turnaround will decrease this week. Despite the spike in cases in some states and testing issues, there is some good news out there, in arizona, hospitalizations for covid19 went down significantly in the past two weeks, and the number of people being cared for in icu there also dropped significantly. Jon . Jon a bit of good news, christina coleman, christina, thank you. Jon turning now to alabamas State Capitol in montgomery, where the late congressman john lewis, a pioneer of the Civil Rights Movement lies in state. His flagdraped casket arriving a few hours ago, retracing the route marchers took in the days leading up to and after bloody sunday back in 1965. Alicia acuna is live in montgomery with more. Alicia . Hi, jon. Congressman john lewiss casket was greeted by onlookers who lined the street leading up to the capitol. He was also greeted by dignitaries at the capitol. As you mentioned, he will lie in state until this evening, and the public is welcome to pay their respects as long as they wear masks. The casket arrived here after traveling from selma, and what was a striking sight, the twoman horsedrawn carriage that took the casket went on to the bridge and it paired down to one man who drove lewiss casket in a final journey across the Edmund Pettus bridge. In the middle there was a pause, as he lay over the river. This is the same route marchers took pursuit in equal Voting Rights, it was cut short by Alabama State troopers who tear gassed and beat them including lewis. Weeks later they would complete the march to montgomery. Later that year the Voting Rights act would become law. To be here today to see his last his body have his last march across the Edmund Pettus bridge, i was so sad but what has made me happy is to think about his life, his legacy, all the things he has done to make this world a better place for all of us to live in. He was quite proud of his multiple arrests over the years in the name of equal treatment. Lewis said when he was a young man, looking around in the segregated south, he asked his parents about the white only signs on stores and restaurants, and they told him dont make trouble. Instead he said he made good trouble, necessary trouble, and jon, as the onlookers in selma watched the carriage go by, they yelled out to john lewiss casket that they would take it from here. Jon . Jon alicia acuna, in montgomery, alabama, thank you. Well be right back. Im a performer. Always have been. And always will be. Never letting anything get in my way.

Jon fox extreme weather alert now, hawaii is bracing for wet weather as hurricane douglas eyes the island. Meanwhile, hanna being downgraded to a Tropical Storm, but it is still dumping rain on southern texas. Alex hogan is following all of this, from new york city. Alex . Jon, this is already a very busy hurricane season, just two months in, these two storm systems that were seeing hit the country over the weekend, bringing a lot of floodwaters with them. The first one hanna that was downgraded from a hurricane to a Tropical Storm this morning, when it touched down in texas, on padre island last night. Governor abbott issuing a disaster declaration for 32 counties, battering a part of the country hard hit by the pandemic, hanna drenched the state with rain, floodwaters, and caused power outages. We know our house is secure, so we figured we would come down here and watch it blow in. You may call us crazy. Were having a good time. I feel bad because we did a bunch of repairs to it. In ports mansfield, texas, the wind carrying away an entire fence, and the National Weather service says the storm surge watches should end today. To the pacific ocean, where hawaii is bracing for hurricane douglas. The category one passing north of maui about an hour ago. The National HurricaneCenter Warning of up to 5 to 10 inches of heavy rain from maui to kauai and possible storm surge up to 3 feet. That hurricane warning is in effect in ohau and kauai. I anticipate significant rain, flooding impact as well as storm surge along the eastfacing shores. Whether its a direct hit or not. Ive had the opportunity to speak with the fema administrator. President trump issued an Emergency Declaration for the state sending federal help. Douglas carries the threat of threatening surf, heavy rainfall and high winds. Currently it is moving with wind speeds of up to 85 milesperhour, for it to become a Tropical Storm like hanna, douglas winds would need to slow to at least 73 milesperhour and also as a line of defense, the state Health Department there also taking into consideration covid19 concerns. There were 625 people in the state who were selfquarantining because of possible affiliation with someone who might have had the virus. Well, this state did reach out to all of those people, making sure that none of them go to a Hurricane Center to prevent the spread even more. Jon . Jon alex hogan in new york, alex, thanks.

Jon as emergency payments for unemployed americans are set to expire, republicans are preparing to unveil their coronavirus package tomorrow. Im jon scott. This is the fox report. It is the bottom of the hour if you are just joining us. Treasury secretary mnuchin and white house chief of staff mark meadows on capitol hill this weekend meeting with Senate Staffers to try to hammer out an agreement. Rich edson has the latest Top AdministrationOfficials Say the government will move quickly on another coronavirus economic package as Senate Republicans prepare to unveil their proposal tomorrow. Treasury secretary steve mnuchin, the white house chief of staff, mark meadows say they have been spending the weekend consulting with Senate Republican staff on a bill that represents only an opening offer to democrats in these negotiations. Many of the provisions in the massive package Congress Passed in march are beginning to expire, like the 600 boost to unemployment benefits. Democrats want to continue that payment. Republicans are pushing a different formula this time, one they say ensures a government benefit no more than about 70 of a workers previous pay. It just wouldnt be fair to use taxpayer dollars to pay more people to sit home than they would get working and get a job. The only thing they accomplished was a tax cut for the wealthiest people in america. Theyre resenting 600 for a single mom to be able to put food on the table. In may House Democrats passed their latest Coronavirus Relief proposal, a 3 trillion dollars plan costing about three times the expected republican bill. Democrats say theyve been waiting on the republican offer for months. The Administration Says the republican version includes another round of 1200 payments to many americans. The treasury secretary also suggested that congress could break these issues up and pass more bills as theyre needed. On thursday, the government reported 1. 4 million filed for initial jobless benefits. That was an increase over the previous week, the first time thats happened in about four months. Jon . Jon rich edso in washington, rich, thank you. Edson in washington, rich, thank you. Lets bring in republican senator from florida, rick scott who sits on the Senate Homeland security committee. How confident are you that the senate is going to be able to come up with something that is going to extend Coronavirus Relief to americans who are still hurting . Sure. Well, look, im very optimistic. Weve got to take care of the people that are unemployed. Weve got to take care of our Small Businesses. Weve got to make sure that our Small Businesses cant get sued over coronavirus if they are trying to do the right thing. What we cant do is waste your money. Weve got to spend the money wisely. You know, were in a financial mess right now. I dont believe we ought to be having taxpayers bailout, Andrew Cuomos wasteless money in new york, lets not give the state a bunch of money to cover their prior excesses like not funding their Pension Plans and a whole bunch of liberal policies. Lets be responsible, take care of the unemployed people, take care of our Small Business, get the economy going. Weve got reopen the economy. If you want to help the people unemployed, reopen the economy, reopen the economy and get people back to work. Thats the most important thing we can do. Jon the treasury secretary says the idea would be giving people a percentage of what they were earning prior to the pandemic. Listen. As it relates to unemployment insurance, we knew there was going to be large unemployment. We had a technical issue with the states in how they were going to be able to do this. We want to have something which pays people about 70 wage replacement, which i think is a very fair level, so its not a fixed number. It is something that pays you a percentage of your wages that are lost. Jon it also sounds like a bit of an accounting nightmare. I mean, i know that you have run a successful business. Is the government going to be able to figure out 70 of this persons wages versus that persons wages . I think it would be really hard, but what i think is important is lets help the unemployed but lets make sure that our businesses get back to work, and you know, if government is competing with Small Business for what they pay people, the Small Businesses are not going to get open. The most important thing we can do is get people open. I was a governor nor eight years. For eight years. I worked on making sure everybody had a job. Whatever we do, its about getting the economy going, getting people back to work, making sure we, you know, we take care of those that need it, but get people back to work. Jon speaking of the economy, florida is not going to host the Republican Convention now because of the president s decision. How big a hit is that to the state, and do you think it is the right decision . Well, look, i think the president made a tough choice. I think, you know, he wants to make sure that whatever we do is people are safe. I think, you know, he is going to have a big win in florida. What people are going to focus on down here, the president ial race, is the democrats want to defund the police. The president wants to take care of the police. He wants to hold china accountable. The democrats dont want to hold china accountable. The president wants to build a better economy and the democrats want to make people dependent on government. I think it is going to be a clear choice in florida. Whether the convention is here or not, i think trump will have a big win in florida. Jon you talked about defunding the police. I want to turn our attention to some of the protests and violence thats going on in the country right now. The acting Homeland Security secretary chad wolf was on maria bartiromos show this morning. Heres what he had to say. I will say that were working very very closely with the department of justice, the fbi, as well as others. I will say that were going to have additional actions probably as early as this week. We cannot continue to let Law Enforcement officers targeted and injured night after night after night. Jon so hes talking about the fact that the federal officers have been targeted in some of these cities to which theyve been dispatched, and some of the cities outright do not want them. What do you say to that . Well, first off, you know, the democrats are being disingenuous. When they say they want to defund the police, when they want to say people are peaceful protesting when they want to burn down a Federal Building or target Law Enforcement, thats not honest. And so im glad the president is going to show up. Hes going to defend people and property, which is what every elected official in this country should be doing. Im glad the president is taking this seriously. I wish every democrat mayor and every democrat governor was doing the same thing. Jon one democrat mayor is a mayor of chicago, heres what she had to say about the possibility of federal forces. What we saw in portland, where the Trump Administration parachuted in these additional federal agents without consulting anybody locally and ignoring the local u. S. Attorney, very different circumstance here in chicago. Ive drawn a very hardline, will not allow federal troops in our city. Jon we will not allow federal troops, she calls them, in our city. The murder rate in chicago has been skyrocketing. Right, yeah, think about the citizens of chicago sitting there day after day watching watching the murder rate go up, watching, you know, chicago politicians talking about defunding the police, not supporting the police, and then they are going to complain if somebody wants to come in and take care of the citizens . I dont get what these democrats are doing. When i was a governor, i focused on three things, keep people safe, get their kids a good education, and get people a job. The democrats dont care about any of those issues. I mean, they are sitting here shutting down our economy, not focused on opening our schools, not focused on funding the police, and they expect us to reelect them. I think trump is going to have a big win this year because the democrats have gone off the deep end. This not the Democrat Party of 50 years ago. Jon well, as i mentioned earlier in the hour, we are 100 days away from that election, and we will find out the answers then. Florida senator rick scott, thank you. Thanks, jon. Jon be sure to tune in to Fox News Sunday right after the program for interviews.

Special envoy is headed for afghanistan to push for peace talks between the government and taliban fighters, which have reportedly and repeatedly been postponed. An agreement with the taliban plays an Important Role in the Trump Administrations plans for a full withdrawal of american troops from afghanistan. Fox News National security correspondent Jennifer Griffin has the latest. A peace deal with the taliban, the Trump Administration hopes will allow u. S. Troops to come home after 19 years of war, past the 135 day mark this week, but the agreement signed in february remains fragile. Commander general Frank Mckenzie had this warning in an interview with voice of america. While the taliban is scrupulous about not attacking u. S. Or coalition forces, in fact, the violence against the afghans is higher than its been in quite a while. The u. S. Taliban deal calls for a full u. S. Withdrawal from afghanistan within 14 months, something the president campaigned on and hopes to achieve by november. We want to bring our people back home. Since february the u. S. Has drawn down to 8600 troops and withdrawn from five bases in afghanistan as part of the deal, roughly the same number of troops as when president obama left office, down from a high of 100,000 in 2010. No u. S. Troops have been killed in afghanistan since the deal was signed. The pentagon continues to say it has found no evidence the russians paid bounties that led to the death of any american troops. Weve not found any corroborating evidence that would indicate that there was a bounty program. Secretary of state pompeo spoke to his russian counterpart about working together in afghanistan. We think it is in russias best interest, chinas best interest and the afghan peoples best interest. The National Defense authorization act includes an amendment from democrat jason crow of colorado and liz cheney that would require the administration to make several certifications to congress before it can draw down any further in afghanistan. At the pentagon, Jennifer Griffin, fox news. Jon the Lone Star State now a top pandemic hot spot has more than 10,000 texans are hospitalized with covid19.

A reminder to anybody in the state of texas, that just because the hurricane comes to the state does not mean that covid19 disappears. We cannot allow this hurricane to lead to more catastrophically deadly events, by stoking additional spread of covid19. Jon Texas Governor greg abbott there with a warning as Tropical Storm hanna wreaks havoc on south texas. The region already reeling from a surge in coronavirus cases with at least 390,000 reported cases in the state and 4900 deaths. Joining us now texas congressman Michael Burgess, a republican leader of the house energy and commerce subcommittee on health. Thanks, congressman, for being here. You are pushing to reopen schools in texas, despite the fact that the case the state is seeing something of a resurgence in coronavirus. Why . Well, opening schools is important, but do bear in mind, texas is a big state, and there are different parts of the state where the answer may look a little bit different. Now, in south texas before the hurricane, there was Significant Community spread, and perhaps there the opening of the schools was going to look different from what it might look in my area, more in the northern part of the state where the numbers have not been nearly as high, doesnt mean that the problem is over, doesnt mean that the virus has been beat. The virus will be beaten, whether it be by a vaccine or some other medical countermeasure. We always do. We will this time as well. Im extremely encouraged. We did have a hearing on the operation warp speed in our Committee Last week, such significant effort is going into developing these viral countermeasures and the Vaccine Development. I truly believe were about three months away from actually having a very workable vaccine which puts us on a trajectory very similar to the h 1n 1 flu of 2010. And people now probably dont recall, but it was the same sort of controversy. Do you open the schools in the fall with h1n1 being such a bad actor . And there it did affect kids, disproportionately and affected young women who might be teaching in those class rooms. This virus is bad. Children are not its primary target, but you still have to behave responsibly. Jon dr. Tom frieden the former head of the cdc was on Fox News Sunday today and he said we just dont know an awful lot about this virus still. Here he is. Kids may be less likely to spread the virus to others, but theres very little evidence about that, and some of the science, some of the virus studies suggest that older kids 10, 12 and up behave a lot like adults in their ability to spread the disease. We dont know for sure. Jon so there are an awful lot of questions remaining. Sure, sure. Jon but you still say opening the schools is the right thing to do. The current head of the cdc pointed out to us on a call last week about what the numbers are as far as children being affected by the virus, and they are small, very much different from ten years ago, when dr. Frieden was head of the cdc and the swine flu was a real problem. Look, no one ever gets everything absolutely right. You learn as you go along. This is a new virus. We dont know the biological behavior in all situations, but i will tell you, the medical countermeasures have come a long way. To keep the schools completely shuttered into the fall throughout the entire country, my opinion would be a mistake. There are other consequences to families and children from doing that, not just the year of learning, that would be lost for this years students, but there are other intangible benefits that students get in school, that they are not getting right now, and we do need to have an eye on those things as well. Jon well, i mean, economic damage continues. And the economic damage will continue until we do get the appropriate viral countermeasures, and again, that is why im so impressed by this administration. Look, the previous administration, when dr. Frieden was head of the cdc, i dont recall the type of effort, i dont recall the type of encouragement that was given to the private sector and even the academic sector to develop these medical couldnt medical countermeasures. You heard about some additional dollars going into the Vaccine Development at the end of the week. The administration is leaning into this problem. The problem will be solved. I believe it will be solved sooner rather than later, but from an economic standpoint economic recovery, you have to open the schools. Jon texas congressman Michael Burgess, thanks. Thank you.
