Over how to protect people in a city plagued by Violent Crime. Democratic mayor Brandon Johnson wants to end chicagos shot Spotter Program and that is something that electronically detects gunfire. Police say its necessary. They have had it in most of their precincts now. But the mayor claims the technology is a Walkietalkie And Hasnt reduced crime. It is the Price Tag that would be the Sticking Point for the mayor. I dont know where else he would want to spend millions of dollars. Police say it ought to be on this program because its working. This has gotten to be a spicy conversation over time and now that they are meeting not just once today over a whole bunch of topics at this meeting but we know this one will come up. They have a designated meeting later in the day on this same topic. It is hot. Weve seen emotions run high over how to protect chicagos citizens from the continued Violent Crime in that city. Well get to that when it happens. Lets start here. I think it is very important to not operate from the assumption that black men are in anybodys pocket. Black men are like any other voting group. You have to earn their vote. So im working to earn the vote. Not assuming im going to have it because i am black. Harris well, there you have it. Vice president Kamala Harris speaking with the national association of black Journalists Yesterday and heard her trying to court some of those black men voters as more of them are embracing president trump. You hear me say it all the time. The Operative Color here is green. It is high prices on everything. It is the economy. She is not talking about that in the specificity that apparently not just black men but people from all over the country, every Race And Ethnicity having a hard time pinpointing what exactly her plan is to dig them out. Im Harris Faulkner and you are in the faulkner focus. Recent polls show Vice President Kamala Harris had made gains with the Voting Block since President Biden dropped out of the race. So you can see where she has picked up with black voter support. Well, biden was headed so far south i dont know how much lower the bar could have gotten there. Anyway, she still falls short of the percentage of black voters who chose biden in 2020. And Kamala Harris side stepped many questions on how exactly her policies would affect the black community. And that includes her stance on slavery reparations. Here she is on setting up a federal commission to look at it. We need to speak truth about history, we need to speak truth about the generational impact of our history in terms of the generational impact to slavery, generational impact of red lining, of Jim Crowe, i could go On And On And on. Do you have a position whether that should happen . I think congress ultimately will have the ability to do this work. Harris one columnist is arguing reparations stoke racial Resentment And Kamala has backed it to the hilt. Here is an excerpt from that. Now harriss campaign declines to say where she stands. Americans agree that slavery and Jim Crowe who abhorrent parts of our nations past but the Race Based Reparations is bad news. Would a president Kamala Harris sign a Reparations Bill into law . We need to know. End of quote there. Gianno caldwell joins me now. It was the same crowd, different treatment, for Kamala Harris yesterday. She didnt get the same pressure on her and disrespect that Donald Trump saw when he went before that very group. So my concern now, my Big Question has to do with do we really know enough about her policies . I think most americans would agree we dont know enough about her policies. Weve seen in 2019 what she has advocated for, Green New Deal and many other things that americans dont like. They dont want to support. But i have to tell you, harris, this is what it is looking like to me. The helium in the Joy Balloon has escaped. No more joy when people recognize the fact what Kamala Harris wants to do is this Price Control Thing she is trying to do with Grocery Store prices, the fact that inflation is still an issue for people regardless what the data might say now, and people havent been able to keep up with what has happened in our country. And i think her Sales Pitch to the american people is flawed. Vote for me and ill Fix Everything wrong with the country now on day one. You are in office now and that has to be the winning consideration for republicans and Donald Trump because you have an opportunity to do Something Today but you have yet to do it. So i feel as though she is really lying to people in their face. If you are going to do it, do it. Theyre not. Harris the helium in the Joy Balloon has escaped. That has been the campaign. It is all about the feels and the joy, so On And so forth. We saw that on full display at the dnc. Critics called Out Harris for using yet another accent at a congressional black Caucus Event last week. Lets watch together. Hello to all my brothers and sisters. And my [laughter] its all my h bcu, brothers and sisters. Harris your thoughts. We know that Kamala Harris isnt authentic. One of the things that i think people especially in black communities have recognized about her is seemingly she only comes and speaks on these particular issues when she needs their votes. Democrats have been doing this for africanamericans for many years. I grew up in politics at 14 on the South Side of chicago and regularly saw democrats come in and say what they were going to do by their next Election Cycle and they did nothing and come back and ask for the vote. This is another one of those tactics used by democrats across the board, including Hillary Clinton if you recall. Harris it is particularly sad, though. I mean, because she had the opportunity there to high tide lifts all boats. Were all in together. Doesnt matter what you look like and so forth. Youve heard me say it before. It is money, its green, it is the high prices of things. She had a shot at just nailing it there. Ill make it better for everybody and she hasnt. She didnt do it yesterday. She didnt do it in front of the black caucus. Lets get to this. A City Council Meeting is about to begin in chicago and it comes as City Leaders are challenging their far left mayor, Brandon Johnsons decision to do away with the Gunfire Detection System known as shot spotter. That technology has been helping police get information on gunfire and locating the source and you know they have a lot of shootings every Week And Weekend in that city. So police need help. There is another special City Council Meeting on this very topic expected to come up later today. Weve seen the discussions around this get the mayor is critical of the shot spotter. Its expensive. Maybe Thats Part of why and down played its effectiveness. Lets watch. We have spent 1 Hundred Million on what essentially is walkietalkies on a stick. 1 Hundred Million. The reason why they said they needed it was to reduce gun violence. It didnt do that. Harris just off the top i was reading this morning some experts are saying its more like 53 million. Police say its working but it is a lot. What is also expensive . Losing lives like my Little Brother lost his In The City Of Chicago and why mayor Brandon Johnson has a 25 approval rating. He has failed the people of chicago. People like me have to come in with the Caldwell Institute for public safety just to insure that lives can be protected. They should keep shot spotter. I remember it when i was come up and what the technology did. Saves lives. Thats what we need. More technology to save lives. There are 2,000 detectives behind on the current caseload that they need to actually protect the people of chicago. The mayor is not doing his job, totally failed and we need to replace him. Harris why do you think he wants to do away with this . Im tying it to money. Are there political reasons i dont know about in chicago . I think its all to do with money. You keep in mind they have spent hundreds of millions of dollars on the migrant crisis there. They are trying to get pennies wherever they can. Unfortunately, this one could cost lives and it is unfortunate that theyve allowed this. The Sanctuary City Siders Have allowed this and why were having these issues today. Harris thank you for being in focus. Appreciate you, my friend. Fear and outrage are growing over the Violent Crime committed by illegal and legal immigrants. You heard Gianno Touch on it there in chicago. But right now a House Hearing is highlighting what the bidenharris open Border Policy is continuously doing to america. And a chilling firsthand account from someone who knew the suspect in the second attempt on former president trumps life. The most frightening part, she flagged the feds two years ago and heard nothing from them. He had very bizarre and volatile tendencies. I definitely remember he always talked about wanting to kill putin, kim jong un, he developed plans and talked about Biden And Trump. Trump. Hey, i just got a text from my sister.

Reports of additional Hezbollah Communication devices blowing up inside lebanon. Possibly Hand Held Radios or walkietalkies this time. Remember, it has been pagers and personal devices on peoples in their pockets and so On And so forth. These would be walkietalkies and radios this time. It comes after Explosions Yesterday killed at least 12 people, injured nearly 3,000, including hezbollah fighters, injured when their pagers exploded across lebanon. It appears small amounts of explosives were hidden Inside Pagers and remotely detonated. Israel is not commenting on this attack. The Defense Minister did notify Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin Yesterday before the explosions. The idf is now on high alert as hezbollah has vowed to retaliate against israel. Just for a second lets pause and remember who hezbollah is. They are fully funded, they are a terrorist army, terroristlike army although theyre considered the military for lebanon. Money flows from iran. And they have put pressure on the system of Israel Fighting against hamas. They want that war to end. Thats why they say they have, in fact, been engaging and hitting israel with rockets across its northern border. This is a back and forth. This is Something Brandnew in how they will fight each other, maybe. Israel has not spoken on it. Well cover it as it happens. The United States Secret Service will be brief on the bipartisan Trump Assassination Attempt Task Force Today about the latest attempt on the former president s life. Weve been learning that an internal secret Service Report on the July 13th Assassination Attempt that was expected to be released this week, may now be delayed because of the second attempt to kill him. Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal went after the Bidenharris Administration for lack of information on the first attempt to kill him. I am reaching a point of total outrage because the response from the Homeland Security has been totally lacking. In fact, i think its tantamount to stonewalling. The department of Homeland Security has to be more forthcoming to me and the american people and do it quickly or it will fuel the Conspiracy Theories so dangerous to our democracy as well as undermining its own credibility. Harris federal Law Enforcement agencies are continuing to dig and learn more about the second alleged would be assassin, Ryan Rouths background. He has previously had multiple runins with the law. A nurse says she encountered him when she was volunteering in ukraine two years ago. I determined after knowing ryan for a while that he was a threat to others. So i felt that it was necessary that he be reported to the proper authorities. Did he ever talk about assassinations . All the time. He developed plans. He talked about Biden And Trump but i cant remember its been over two years since i heard those conversations. I cant remember exactly what he said but he did speak frequently about harming world leaders. Harris and she spoke up. She notified Homeland Security but they did not respond to her until monday. Dana Marie Mcnicholl is in west palm beach, florida now. Dana marie. Good morning. As we are piecing together rouths troubling past. Fox spoke to a greenville Police Officer with over 100 runins in with routh. It escalated to hit and runs, theft of cars and equipment. All my interactions with him, he liked to run his mouth and play the victim, you know . He felt the city was always against him and he would file complaints against myself and other officers feeling that we were picking on him. In 2002 routh became a felon after barricading himself in a business with a fully automatic rifle. The f. B. I. Continues their Investigation Rating rouths home in hawaii yesterday. They are interviewing the suspects friends, family, neighbors and coworkers. The state of florida will conduct an investigation. Governor desantis doesnt trust the feds and wants the shooter to face the possibility of life in prison. A punishment he doesnt think federal officials have the jurisdiction to pursue. Florida State A. G. Says the investigation runs parallel to the federal investigatiOn And former President Tumble did meet with officials yesterday. Officials say that security at maralago is at its highest Level Parallel to when the former president was in office. Harris i guess i wonder why it wasnt like that after the first attempt on his life . How many does it take to get to where they need to be maybe . Maybe they need more. Thank you, great report. Appreciate it. Focus now Paul Mauro, Fox News contributor, attorney and Retired Nypd inspector. Lets start here. How many Ryan Rouths and Thomas Crooks are out there . These are suspects in these crimes and as you dig into their history, they have a lot that we can learn maybe about them. But do we know enough of what were looking for . People speak up and it still doesnt help. We know how to do this, okay . I will track this to the Counter Terrorism Effort post 9 11. We expanded the jttfs, people online, all this Stuff Heavey laired within the first amendment. At the end of the day you are somewhat looking for a needle in a hay stack. You are looking for those people who rise above trigger certain metrics, certain Trip Wires where you then have to activate against them. That will be the question that will be part of the congressional investigation here. Some of the stuff coming out about routh does rise to the level, in my estimation, you have to look at especially the foreign travel. Thats a real red flag. Somebody who did Counter Terrorism for 15 years. Harris to a war zone. That kind of a thing layered over all the other derogatory on him. Encounters with the police, online statements, etc. , and lets come back on top of all that he returns it looks like last year from overseas. Got this almost like a book he writes about iran, and again you put all these pieces together and you have to hope somebody is looking at that. The nurse said she told dhs. Where were they . Harris i dont know, where is Secretary Mayorkas . Can he talk on the topic of the attempted assassinations of trump . The us secret service falls under him. Well move to this. Axios is reporting some liberal groups are hoping Vice President Kamala Harris will go back to her liberal border positions after weve heard things like this on the campaign trail. We know our Immigration System is broken and we know what it takes to fix it. Comprehensive reform that includes strong border security. Harris right now the house Homeland Security committee is holding a hearing on the Bidenharris Administrations open border policies. You wouldnt Need Congress to fix what youve broken. Patty Morins Daughter was allegedly raped and murdered by an illegal immigrant and spoke to the panel last hour. Lets watch. And i just hope and pray that you will listen to what we have to say. Im trying to make my statement as short as i can so i dont cry. Rachel was, when was a Little Girl she was a spitfire, tiny little redhead. As an adult she was a vivacious, outgoing person. She is the american mom. They are bringing criminals into our country and allowing them into our smallest towns and our people are dying. Harris she is one of many victims of alleged Violent Crimes by illegal immigrants under the Bidenharris Administration. Paul, you warned us that this could get worse. Did you mean this or is there more . Stuff like this. As you let these numbers in, of course there will be more. Let me tease out a nuance. The administration is making great hay that Border Encounters are down. They quietly reinstituted this chnv program. Before it was deactivated due to massive fraud. Their own words. You had 30,000 being flown in every month. First of all, from where . Are we picking people up in venezuela . None of this is explained. They say they are vetted, 30,000 a month, which is probably an understatement. Lets look at the nations, cuba dont cooperate with america. Venezuela doesnt cooperate but president is under indictment by d. O. J. He wont cooperate with it. Venezuela, cuba, haiti, run by criminal gangs. We cant get information from any of these people. Harris a border in the sky. They are coming in and supposed to know who they are. We dont. They are establishing here. Not just tren de aragua. They get established and like the italian mafia years ago. We denied they exist. Hoover wouldnt admit they existed. It took decades to get rid of them. We better wake up. Harris another warning from Paul Mauro and they come true unfortunately. Both President Yacht candidates have sat for an interview with the national institution of black journalist. How the two were trothed was very different. Very different. Vice president harris seems to be trying hard not to break any news, dont cause any waves with like the truth. I offer a new generation of leadership. And, you know, i offer a new generation of leadership. What i do offer is a new generation of leadership. Harris i hope they are tipping the speech writer, one set of words used over and over again. There has to be a commission on that. Anyway, critics are saying its a Word Salad and that we are informationfree every time she talks on policy. Power panel in focus next. Li, imagine being good to go without Daily Hiv pills.

Call this number harris Kamala Harris sat down for her first solo interview. She didnt have a Running Mate by her side this time. It was with members of the national media and it has been the first time since jumping into the White House race. She still has not given a national Oneonone Interview or a news conference. The panelists at the National Association Of Black Journalists took a very different tone when speaking with Kamala Harris yesterday compared with some of the treatment that they gave former president Donald Trump in july. I was on that panel and didnt see it coming. Watch. You have told four congresswomen of color who are cam an citizens to go back to where they came from. You have used words like animal and rabid to describe black district attorneys. You have attacked black journalists calling them a loser saying the questions they ask are stupid and racist. Republicans have at times weaponizeed you laughing in campaign ads, for example. Why is joy important to you to insert into this election . Harris first of all, notice the physicality of all that. We were on stage. Trump and i couldnt hear each other. 41 Minute Delay Thing with audio that Abc News and others were running backstage. That was cozy. Everybody could see everybody and make Eye Contact and do followup questions. We didnt see that pushback on her but potential for it. It was that arc, a good way to have a conversation. Kellyanne conway with her take. I found the Vice President to be a little condescending if not rude to the moderators when they pushed her to answer the question they asked. I think Kamala Harris takes the media for granted the way she takes for granted Hard Core democrats who have never voted any other way who are excited. She feels like she can bat the media around a little bit and bend them to her will. Harris the campaign says she will talk to the press at her own pace. She better hurry up. Harriss Senior Advisor told the New York times quote, if you want to know the kind of things we plan to do, look at the things she was doing all year before the Ticket Switch End quote. Thats why were asking. Outside of the failure on the border, we dont know. She taught us a. I. Stands for artificial intelligence. Tammy bruce, Fox News contributor. You saw him there on that panel with martha maccallum, Patrick Murphy is him former democratic congressman and former undersecretary of the army. Lets talk about this. It has been longer since she was announced than there are days to the election. And we know nothing more about her policies. The ones that really count on economics. She will list a few things, the website is very lean. That sort of thing. It doesnt make news for its specificity. Well harris, i think actions speak louder than words. Economy is moving in the right direction. The Stock Market is over 40,000 Points. 30,000 when they took office. Unemployment alltime record low. It was at 15 in the middle of covid. Harris during the middle of covid was before okay. 6. 8 when biden took office and it is now lower. No one i would say to you we have the Fed Rate Cut today which is positive after they raised it to make sure we had a soft landing. Harris historically high. They have to make history bringing it down. What did you say inflation was when biden took over . It was up at 9 , now down to 3. 2 . Harris when he took over from trump it was 1. 4 . There was also trillions in debt, though. Harris false talking point. Part of the inflation was because of the debt and Donald Trump raised our debt 8 trillion. A record, 8 trillion. Its true. Let me add about the Stock Market. Try putting that into your gas tank. Put the Stock Market on the table for dinner. Gas was up over 5. Harris we can get back to that. Headlines from Kamala Harriss interview. She avoids getting to details as she battles with trump. Harris refuses to veer off script in her second high profile interview. She is stuck with the same script she used in the local interview last week and during the president ial debate. Here are the receipts. I grew up a middle class kid. I grew up a middle class kid. I was raised as a middle class kid. Having a background as a prosecutor. I was a Career Prosecutor for most of my career. I started by career as a prosecutor. I offer a new generation of leadership. And, you know, i offer a new generation of leadership. And what i do offer is a new generation of leadership. Part of my plan that is under an opportunity economy, creating an student opportunity economy. I intend to create an opportunity economy. To apply their incredible Work Ethic. Investing in the ambitions, aspirations and Work Ethic of the american people. I believe in the ambition, the aspirations, the dreams of the american people. The american dream was attainable. The american dream is illusive. Actually not attainable. What has been fleeting in terms of the american dream. The vast majority of us as americans know we have so much more in common than what separates us. The vast majority of us as americans have in common. We have so much more in common than what separates us. Harris i want to thank my team for putting that together. There was so much of it and it is only an hour show. I think at the black Journalist Association there was a moment where she was being asked about Food Prices and she said she started out and it was a moment she says what i offer. Here is the moment where she can give a specific. She went back into that talking point. A new generation of leadership. That also will not put food on your table. Now, after the Debate Americans and the Focus Groups when asked was that they recognized her as being evasive. That this might be, in fact, a effort to not rock the boat but that she clearly is not answering the question. The tone was set with that first question about are people better off than they were four years ago and she started talking about lawns and the middle class. So i think that the american people have seen this for what it is. But if you have a chance. Imagine One Of Us have a chance to be the president , you are talking to the world in a debate and you have ideas. This is the chance to say this is what i will do. Americans dont trust someone who will not be clear. I will say she did answer that. She said Food Prices are too high and we have to do better. Harris wait. We have to do better is not part of is a transparency. She came out with an economic plan also saying mcdonalds had harris you were laughing through that. What was funny when you saw how many times she repeated. Tip your Script Writer on the way out the door. It is funny. You have have Patrick Murphy and do is same. She is introducing harris that is not the same thing as her spouting talking Points that are 0. No substance. There is a massive contrast between this race. She comes from a middle Class Background and is a new Generation Leader and going against a Guy Born and third base and he hit a triple. Harris had a great economy. Economy. And wracked up the dead 8 Million with lowered the Tax Rate and drove up harris is saying detail. Harris having people out of work. Because they were not going to raise taxes. They say a wrap. Our situation speaks for itself. Come on. Can i say one nice thing one last thing i will say it. The american people are being lied to by omission is unacceptable. We are at a Turning Point in this country. It is life and death. Not about all i did not interrupt, patrick. All roads do not lead to rome. One road goes off the cliff. Harris potential Port Strike could walk the u. S. Economy and ruin the holiday season. Critics are going after President Biden for refusing to use federal law to block the strike. The White House is still calling trump a threat to democracy. And that has some voters in battleground states very unhappy about democrats rhetoric. Democrats continue to say a threat to democracy. Democrats, i think that they dont want to admit it but they have a big part in it. I heard that from a lot of liberals oh, once he gets in power he will never leave. Harris republicans are calling for democrats to cool down the rhetoric for the sake of former president trumps safety. Gop Congressman Byron donalds in focus next.

Thats about an Hour East of manhattan. Tonight the campaign says the rally will focus on the effects of the economic and immigration policies of Vice President Kamala Harris and new York Citys mayor Adams Security for Tonights Event has been increased. And this is trumps first largescale rally. They had a Town Hall in michigan last night. This is a rally now. The Town Hall looked like a rally because there were so many people. This is the first official large rally since the second Assassination Attempt on his life. Look at those people. The time is 7 00 p. M. Eastern. They are getting there early. A Potential Strike at dozens of americas ports could rock the u. S. Economy again and again and again we get hit. What will this do to prices . President biden will not use federal law to stop it from happening. The administration says it doesnt want to interfere with collective bargaining. Thats a Union Thing and we have a president ial election coming up and dems dont want to touch that. We get it. 45,000 workers from maine to texas could stop work starting october 1st. This could cause big Supply Chain disruptions for the holiday shopping season. Those ports handle nearly half of all american imports. Analysis from j. P. Morgan says a strike like this could cost the u. S. Economy 5 Billion per day. Lydia hu is live at the port in New Jersey with more on this. Lydia, this is unreal like the Pandemic Shutdown but worse. Because we were still working and we will still lose all this money. Youve got it, harris. This feels like it is happening all over again. It feels like we have the chance to avoid it but hope is that a strike will be avoided at this point is now quickly fading. The contract for the workers expires on September 30th so we could get a strike in just two weeks time. Consider how inflation has absolutely run away during the biden administration driving costs higher and a strike now that would impact the ports along the East Coast and the Gulf Coast could force those costs higher for businesses and consumers. Consider this. East coast and Gulf Coast ports handle roughly 43 of all u. S. Imports. The top commodities impacted are autos and car parts. For consumers it could mine higher prices. Shipping costs currently 162 higher than they were just one year ago. A strike could force them even higher. Business groups, as you can imagine, are very concerned. The National Retail Federation sent a letter to President Biden yesterday signed by 177 business groups. They write this, quote. It is imperative that the administration engage with the parties. A strike at this point in time would have a devastating impact on the economy, especially as inflation is on the downward trend. As you mentioned, the White House says President Biden will not invoke the taft hartley act. Another could be involving the administration in negotiations, talks seem to be at a stand still. No new negotiations scheduled. Wages is a Sticking Point. Employers say they are offering industryleading Wage Increases for reference we can look to the west coast. There is longshoremen got a 32 Wage Increase last year in their new contract. But according to the wall street journal, the longshoremen on the East Coast and Gulf Coast are demanding a 77 increase over the next six years. Thats a lot. They arent even close. The employers say they want to continue talks but the longshoremen say theyre ready to strike to get a landmark deal. Harris all right. Lydia, thank you so much. I now want to bring in representative Byron Donalds from the great state of florida. 43 Supply Chain will drive up prices. I mean, this almost feels like a Preoctober Surprise in the worst way. You are absolutely right, harris. I was listening to that report and quite frankly a Wage Increase like that will send Shock Waves into the Pocket Books of every family. The Bigger Question is why isnt the Bidenharris Administration trying to do anything about this . They should be getting involved now. Thats what president ial leadership looks like. The fact that they will sit on the sidelines and watch is frankly reminiscent of the rest of their economic policy. They sit on the sidelines, they put in bad policy and they do not respond when the harm hits the Pocket Books of every american. Harris the harm hits the Pocket Books. That is so true. You sit On The House Financial Services and oversight committees. You know it seems like the Bidenharris Administration likes to hand you guys a big pile of pooh when they dont want to touch something. It gets them in trouble with the unions if they stop the strike. Does this land in the hands of people on The Hill . Not likely. This is something where quite frankly it will be up to Joe Biden if you can find him and or Kamala Harris, if she will answer questions about what will be their Game Plan around this. There needs to be a deal done pretty eye quickly. You cant have a situation where there are major strikes like that. If the report is correct you talk about a 5 Billion per day impact to the american economy. That wont be helpful to families who are already falling behind because of the massive inflation brought to us by Kamala Harris and Joe Biden. So we need to get a deal done. This is where the Executive Branch has purview. Congress has delegated that authority and given the ability for the president to step in. Where is he . Quite frankly, where is she . Harris this is a national security issue, too. Because those ports that will remain open are going to have to do all the work now to try to make up that 43 . I dont know if they can. What does that do what do our enemies see . China with its goods, trade deals. Big picture. Major implications internationally to the core of your other question. The other ports in the Country Cant pick up that slack. You have Work Rules out in the california ports. Then you have the crazy environmental rules of the state of california on what type of vehicles go to pick up goods at those sports and why you cant have bad environmental policy that impacts trade and impact the flow of goods into the country. The White House saying they wont do anything and make sure a deal gets done is not appropriate at this point in time. Especially considering the facts that the federal reserve is looking at Rate Policy coming out in a couple of hours. Not the time for sitting around or hanging out at the beach. They have to do something. Harris im so glad you were with me for the Breaking News and reporting. Great to see you. Well bring you back. Outnumbered is next
