Transcripts For FOXNEWSW Americas Newsroom With Bill Hemmer

A look at the days news and headlines. Authorities and facilitating them. It seems right now theyre trying to raise as much money and awareness to recover Mollie Tibbetts. Bill her boyfriend spoke to fox news. Com at length yesterday. He is back in the house where she was staying when she disappeared on the 18th of july, matt. He is back in that house where mollie went missing. He hasnt gone inside the bedroom where she has gone missing. We asked him if he noticed signs of a struggle or forced entry. He said he would not comment because investigators asked him not to jeopardize the investigation. He tells us the doors to this home were probably not locked on the day that mollie went missing. He said people dont lock their doors in smalltown iowa. Regarding what he thinks happened, he says he has no idea. Never body has their own theories. Im leaving it up to the Law Enforcement to try to figure that one out. Just dont want to go racking it through my Brain Thinking of what happened, what happened, what happened just driving myself insane because i know everybody else around here is. You have to lead by example and try to just let the Law Enforcement do their jobs. Theyre trained for this. Here in brooklyn, iowa, it is a Classic Main Street Usa Small Town nestled in farmland and corn fields as you can imagine. There is a gas station off Interstate 80 anybody coming off the highway or going to the highway might stop. Fox news learned that police have taken all the surveillance from that gas station which might provide them for any leads. You know, the family says and crimestoppers says unfortunately they arent ruling out the fact someone could have got off i80 and abducted mollie here. Sandra more on this developing story for you,Mollie Tibbetts father, ron tibbetts and her boyfriend join us later in the show at 11 30 a. M. Eastern time ahead of the News Conference that we expect. Another Fox News Alert. That would be asked of the president doug mcelway joins us live. Any president ial tweets on the Mueller Investigation . Not in the past 24 hours. The tweet from about 24 hours ago is still resonating as lawyers debate whether its helpful to the president or potentially putting him in serious legal jeopardy. To refresh your Memory Attorney General Jeff Sessions should stop this rigged witch hunt right now before it continues to stain our country any further. Bob mueller is totally conflicted and his 17 angry democrats doing his dirty work are a disgrace to the usa. Witness tampering but both turley and napolitano agree it would be wise for the president to simply stop his tweeting about mueller. The white house, however, disagrees. Look, the president is not obstructing. He is fighting back and stating his opinion. He is stating it clearly and he certainly is expressing the frustration that he has with the level of corruption that weve seen from people like jim comey, peter strzok, andrew mccabe. There is a reason that the president is angry and frankly most of america is angry as well and there is no reason he shouldnt be able to voice that opinion. While Attorney General Jeff Sessions is refusing comment keep in mind last fall he appointed u. S. Attorney john huber to investigate potential malfees answer at the f. B. I. And d. O. J. Huber has yet to release his findings. Sandra whats the latest on whether or not the president will actually sit down for an interview with Robert Mueller . Both sides continue negotiations. They have offered counter proposals. The latest is that mr. Mueller has narrowed the scope of the questions he would pose to President Trump. The white house is working on a response to that. As much as the president may want to clear the air through an interview with mr. Mueller, keep in mind almost any attorney in a situation like this cautions his client against doing such an interview. It is fraught with peril. Sandra, back to you. Sandra doug mcelway, thank you. Bill President Trump goes to pennsylvania later, Crisscrossing The Country to campaign for republicans running for congress. The president trying to help Republican Senate candidate lou barletta defeat bob casey in pennsylvania. Chris stirewalt, how are you, reverend. Good day to you, sir. Pennsylvania event today, a big election tuesday next week in ohio. The headline from politico. Trump pelosi dominate ohio Special Election. A lot of people talk about a referendum on donald trump. Is it the same for pelosi and democrats . That has been the cornerstone of the republican effort to hold onto the house which is to tie every democratic candidate to nancy pelosi and say essentially as a democrat runs to argue to voters ill be a check on donald trump and what the republicans will say in almost every case is youll be a rubber stamp for nancy pelosi. Thats the Polarizing Split that swing voters will be forced into this fall and it will happen on tuesday in ohio in what turned out to be a surprisingly close race. Bill Big Coverage Coming Up next week. On the left on the far, far left you have the rise of the socialist movement. You have a candidate in the State Of Washington who is trying to do what a candidate in new york has already done and thats defeat a longtime democratic incumbent in the primary out there. Sarah smith is her name. She is 30 years old. I talked to her last night. She said this. Right now people talk a lot about cost when it comes to these kinds of things, bill. They talk a lot about costs for single payer healthcare system. The system we have now costs taxpayers 47 trillion. A Single Payer System would wind up changing that cost and reduce it to 33 trillion. You are saving us money then, is that right . Single payer systems save money. Bill there is the argument. I dont know when socialism ever saves money but thats the line, chris. Look, in her district and for what she is doing that is probably a good answer. Democrats have a great opportunity on health insurance, republicans dropped the ball on the 1yard line and they have screwed it up to a fair thee well after eight years of running against obamacare, they failed. This gives democrats a big opportunity but creates an opening for the far left to come in, candidates like the basics done, let alone start to articulate this vision. Remember, House Republicans will have a Speaker Election or a Minority Leader Election soon. The direction of the Republican Party on this and other issues is yet to be written. Bill thank you, sir. District 12 on tuesday in ohio. Talk to you soon. Thank you. Sandra by the way, coming up well hear from congressman lou barletta. Will a Trump Bump Help him in his race . Thats coming up at 9 40 a.

Organizers are gearing up for what could be a chaotic rally since it will Company Inside with a couple big events including the cubs game and the start of another festival. One level playing field, no subsidies, the whole nine yards, but to get there we have to make it more painful for them to continue these bad practices than to mollify them. Thats what this is all about. Bill really interesting comments u. S. Commerce secretary wilbur ross calling it a tactic lowering trade barriers. President trump threatening to increase tariffs on chinese imports this week. Art laffer, former Economic Advisor to president reagan. Your piece this week got a lot of attention and ill share it with viewers, how trump could be like reagan. Thats asking a lot, art. Here is what you say. Just as Ronald Reagan pushed for abolishing Nuclear Weapons President Trump should call for ending tariffs. Make the case. I think it is. Every economist believes almost everyone that a free trade world with no barriers, subsidies, would be good for the World Economy, the u. S. And other countries. Its a win win for everyone. What we need to do, how do we get there . How do we get other countries to drop their barriers against u. S. Goods . The way trump has chosen to do it is by threatening tariffs and bringing them to the table. As you can see already with the e. U. Its working. Its working with mexico. I think it can work with a lot of other countries. But the goal is always zero tariffs, zero nontariff barriers and no subsidies. I think well get there, at least a great distance. Bill why do you think that . The headline out of china today, chinese shares tumbled the most in a month on thursday meaning today after President Trump instructed his trade rep to go for 200 billion more. Are you saying that were squeezing beijing into a deal . I think thats true. China is very vulnerable to the u. S. Economy. Theyve had huge growth rates for 50 years, bill, way higher than any other major country in the World Economy and even with all of that, their gdp per adult is still about 1 8 of what the u. S. Is. They still are a very poor, backward nation in many respects. China can ill afford to behave badly now if they want to continue prospering. They are no longer this little less developed country where youve given them the free slack of protecting their domestic industries. Thats not available anymore. We have to make sure china competes freely like everyone else. Japan, too. Japan is notorious for its barriers against u. S. Products. You write mr. Trump would be transformed from the evil disrupter of International Commerce more like a savior as 30 years ago mr. Reagans image changed from super hawk to peacemaker overnight. If you get to zero tariffs. Or if you get a long way there. It doesnt have to be zero tariffs on everything but moving in that direction, which is what reagan did. And reagan did it by threatening the evil empire if you remember and all this other stuff and when he made that famous speech in congress in 1984 where he said you know, we need to have no Nuclear Weapons. We didnt get to no Nuclear Weapons, thats true. But we made a lot of progress on denuclearizeing the world and getting rid of a threat of a nuclear war. Amazing what he did. Bill what is the level of patience and how does it take . It could be months away. Maybe goes to 500 billion. I dont know. Its an election process issue. Frankly it may take a lot of years to get in that direction like the reagan reductions in nuke area weapon took many years. There is no reason why we cant shoot for the north star, bill. Why we cant try to do the right thing and bring all those countries in and get them all to reduce their trade barriers, tariffs and subsidies and make it really truly a free trade world. Thats the goal and dream and what we need to be pursuing. You know, im very pleased with the way trump has articulated his zero tariff, zero subsidy and zero nontariff barrier objective. Whether the strategy will work or not im not an expert on strategy. Its above my pay grade. But the north star, goal and dream is the right goal dream and objective. Bill thank you, art. Come back soon. Say hello to sandra for me. Sandra hello, come back soon. The tsa is reportedly considering getting rid of Passenger Screening at more than 100 of our airports. Why would they do that and why now . Bill a new development in the Obama Administrations scandal of Fast And Furious. The family of the murdered Border Patrol agent could be one step closer today to justice. On our side of the border i believe there is a lot of politicians involved in this and a lot of officials in the Justice Department from the Previous Administration involved in this and there are a lot of dirty hands and i think the reason theyre hiding it because they dont want the names exposed.

Bill what do you mean . If the small airports out west and wonder why theyre so staffed and manned the way they. Sandra people want to feel safe. They dont feel bothered by security measures. I dont know. Bill the other thing i would add, 9 11 Mohammed Attah flew through the airport in portland, maine. You wonder how you strike a balance if you go forward that way. You raise a good point about security. Sandra keep us safe. U. S. Attorneys office says the man accused of killing u. S.
