Transcripts For FOXNEWSW Shepard Smith Reporting 20180703 :

Well show you how. Lets get to it. Tuesday before independence. First from the fox news deck, a dozen children could have to wait for months to get out of that cave in thailand. Or attempt to save themselves. With an extremely risky rescue plan. The children and their soccer coach have been stuck in the cave for about ten days. Searchers found the boys alive yesterday and brought in food and lights at last. They were some three miles from the cave entrance. Now rescuers are deciding on their next move. They have two main choices. Option number 1, wait for the flood waters to recede in rainy season ends in mid to late october. More than three months from now. Think of it. Most likely 100 days. Children from 1116 years old in a pitch black wet cave with food and water but little more. Option number 2, teach them how to use scuba gear and swim to safety. The kids are all said to be in Good Condition considering all theyve been through. Seven Thai Navy Seals are staying with them in the cave. Future swim instructors . A doctor and nurse there as well. Outside the cave, relatives can do little but wait and pray. These images show family members after divers sent back word yesterday that they found the boys alive. Smiles capturing the complete relief after days of agony. Days of not knowing whether their sons were alive or debt. Try to imagine yourself as one of the parents right now. You know your kids in there. You know hes okay. You cant hug him. You cant see him. You cant help him. Little you can do but hope he makes it home. Forecasters say heavy rains are on the way. That is the worst thing they could get. That means the flooding inside the cave could get much worse. Of course, as the waters rise, so too does the danger. Its foxs top story. Trace gallagher is tracking the developments. Hi, trace. Shep, in a perfect world, the best way for the kids to get out is swim. That is risky. They dont know how to swim one and it would take them three days how to use the dive equipment. Experts say they would be guided out by professional divers. Thailands elite navy divers found it difficult to move through the muddy waters and tight passage ways. Because some of the channels are so narrow, only one person at a time can fit through. That means the boys would be on their own for at least certain portions of the trip. Listen. Its a confined space. Almost zero visibility. The currents to battle against. So its a really quite a strenuous environment to be in. Yeah, the question then becomes how the boys handle stress. Experts say if any of them panic in any way in the small passage ways, it could be life threatening for them and others. If they decide to sit town for the rainy season, they would have supplies brought in but more rain might mean moving to Higher Ground and right now theyre already a half mile underground. Listen again. We want to get them out as soon as possible. But they have to make sure that its very, very safe to bring them out. That means they have to sit and wait and we have to transfer equipment, that will maintain them, so be it. The third option is to drill open a new entrance. If youve seen the area, its solid rock and that would take a long time. Chef . Shepard what details do we have on the condition of the kids . Well, theyre using a color code to assess their conditions and health. Red is critical. Yellow is serious. Green is stable. Most of the boys are in green and a few have minor injuries so theyre in yellow. After not eating for a week, all are being given a high protein diet, Pain Medicine and antibiotics. More than 1,000 people are on scene working around the clock to get them out. They have also captured the hearts of the world. Watch this. I truly believe when, you know, someone puts their heart towards something, its powerful. When a whole country puts their hearts towards something, wow. Yeah, u. S. Navy seals are flying to the scene. The kids are scared but in good spirits, were told. We could get more information about rescue attempts in the next few hours. Well keep you posted. Shepard well look forward to it. Lets turn to somebody that has been rescuing people from caves since he was a teen. Anmar is with the National Cave rescue commission. Sir, great of you to be here. Thank you. Youre welcome. Shepard what is a top priority . You want to get them out. How do you get to that end . The top priority, of course, is to make sure that theyre safe and that where theyre located in the cave can stay safe in the event of more flooding. The biggest danger that theyre facing immediately is the fact that theyve been under starvation conditions the last nine days and reintroducing them to food, it has to be done carefully. Making sure theyre in good health so they can regain their strength. Theres nothing that they can do immediately because theyre too weak at this point. I guess you have to wait to get the strength back before you can begin to swim and eventually dive. Sounds like a lot to accomplish under those circumstances. It is. The diving option is of course the most dangerous as several of your folks have said. Its not one of the preferred options. I know it seems counter intuitive. But sitting tight and waiting and either getting the new entrance found or drilled in, if that is possible, were waiting for enough break in the weather for the monsoon rains to calm enough that they can lowter water with the existing pumping and any future actions they might take so the boys can come out on their own without having to use scuba. Shepard how concerned are you about the rain . Im not following it that closely from the standpoint of what the case is doing as how it reacts. I know the people ive talked to on site say that it will certainly slow down their ability to resupply in the cave. Theyve been moving supplies in fairly rapidly before the new rain hits. So they should be able to sit tight for quite some time in the cave. Can you give us an idea what conditions like that, the darkness, the wetness, the isolation, what effect that has on children . Well, its going to affect everybody differently. Some people will have no problem with it or less problem with it. Other people will suffer severe effects. The last nine or ten days, theyve been under extreme stress, which is certainly not good for their health and plus the fact that theyve been involved with the starvation. That is also associated with it. Every person reacts differently. So theres no right or wrong way that they can react. I will say that in the in essence, its a sensory deprivation experience that theyve just had. The time their sense of time passing gets distorted and the sense of what reality is starts to become distorted. Weve had people under similar conditions actually thought that they told us later that they had hallucinated us coming to rescue them. Shepard one of the first things they said according to rescuers, what day is it . How long have we been here . They didnt have any idea. I was wondering if the people that go in the cave have to sort of reality check them. If theres some q a that you do with them or some sort of brain stimulation. When i first come up on people, i evaluate them mentally and emotionally. My goal is to ground them in reality. I let them know what day it is, what has been going on since they have been missing. A real danger, of course, the fact that theyre not going to be rescued immediately. The best option or even the fastest option still could take a week or more if they choose to dive them out, which is the most dangerous option and the fastest to get them out. You have to regain their strength. Youve taught them enough skill to not be as dangerous as it might be otherwise. So it gives them something to focus on. If they do not have that immediate focus and have to wait in the cave for some time, your next biggest task is to keep them occupied so they have something to focus on and they dont have the depression that follows the elation of being discovered. Thanks, anmar. Good 0 you. Thank you. Youre welcome. Shepard imagine their parents. The nation of thailand enthralled with all of this. Here at home, President Trump could meet with two more Supreme Court contenders today. Hes a what a source is telling fox news. The president said he met with four candidates yesterday. Now were learning he talked to another possible nominee by telephone. President trump is choosing somebody to fill the smith of Justice Anthony kennedy. He was a crucial swing vote on major issues including abortion and gay rights. His retirement means the court will be split, four liberals, four conservatives. The president has a chance to give the conservatives the majority. John roberts is live on the north lawn. Depending who he picks, a conservative majority for a deck kate. The president planning on meeting with at least another couple potential candidate. Among them, thomas hardiman. He was under consideration last year to fill the vacancy left by the death of Antonin Scalia and joan larson is also in contention. Yesterday the president met with four candidates, amy barrett from the seventh Circuit Court of appeals. Brett cavanaugh from the d. C. Circuit court of appeals, raymond kethledge. Youre getting a theme here. Three candidates from the sixth Circuit Court of appeals. The white house says theres no particular issue the president is looking at. Doesnt ride on say roe v. Wade. What hes looking for is judicial philosophy. The main thing the president is looking for are people that set the qualifications that you would want in a Supreme Court justice. Tremendous intellect. Someone that will stick to upholding the constitution and somebody who has great judicial temperament. The white house takes great glee in laying down a lot of smoke around the process. For example, they are happen my this afternoon to read stories that the president was spoking on the telephone with utah senator mike lee potentially interviewing him for the job. The two had a phone call yesterday. The white house is chumming the waters here to see who will take the bait. They like to get a lot of speculation, going around potential picks and see what the reaction is. Im told by people close to the process that mike lee as the next Supreme Court judge is not likely. Cavanaugh and kethledge is a frontrunner. Cavanaugh im told is the one that looks the most like neil gorsuch. Some people have a problem with the ruling he made on obamacare. Some people say the criticism is not merited. The president expecting a big fight from democrats because they believe that roe v. Wade is on the line here. The next Supreme Court judge can tip the way in a way that would overturn roe v. Wade and more moderate republicans of maine have expressed concern about the judicial philosophy of the next Supreme Court justice. She believes that roe v. Wade is established law and doesnt need opening again. John roberts, thank you. Well take a closer look at the top Supreme Court contenders and confirmation battle ahead. That, plus permits for lemonade stands and the bear that wanted more. Stay with us. Good to have you on this tuesday afternoon. Get your groove on with one a day 50 . Get ready for the wild life complete multivitamins with key nutrients that address 6 concerns of aging, including heart health, supported by bvitamins. Your one a day is showing. From this day forward, til death do us part. Selectquote can help you keep your promise. With Life Insurance starting under 1 a day. But you promised dad. Come on. Selectquote helped jim, 41, keep his promise by finding him a 500,000 policy for under 26 per month. And found kathy, 37, a 750,000 policy for just 22 per month. Since 1985, weve helped millions of families by finding them affordable coverage by impartially shopping highly rated insurers offering over 70 policies. Dad, youre coming right . You promise . You promise . You promise . I promise. You promise . I never thought id say this. But i found bladder leak underwear. Thats actually pretty. Always discreet boutique. Hidden inside. Is a super absorbent core that quickly turns liquid to gel. [snap ] so i feel protected. And pretty. Always discreet boutique. Were learning more about who the president is interviewing as he picks a nominee a week from now. Evermason is with us from reuters. Nice to see you, shep. Shepard what is the early word . Hes got a couple that hes thinking about. Hes interviewing up to seven starting yesterday and continuing today. Two of the main people hes looking are Brett Cavanaugh and judge amy barrett. Both of them are conservative. Interesting choices for a different reason. Cavanaugh has an interest with george w. Bush. Barrett is 46. When she ran when she was selected by trump in 2014, her confirmation hearing were tricky. She was drilled about her catholic faith. You hear a lot of rumblings about the white house to bring in a woman so that you have your first woman conservative on the bench. Is that just talk or is there something there . Its no doubt something that is theyre thinking about. When we talked to the president on air force one friday, he mentioned theres two women and the top five candidates. Clearly the president and the white house are focusing on the longterm when theyre making this choice. Theyre looking for somebody that would uphold the law and uphold conservative principles that the president talked about as a candidate. Politically, you cant rule out the politics of this move and choosing a woman. Something that might help the president with in the election. Shepard if you want someone, you want someone pro life but not for instance like Susan Collins would have to acknowledge is pro life. You have to have someone that fits the bill all the way around. Thats not evidence especially on kavanaugh. Its not. The president said he wasnt going to ask the candidates about roe v. Wade but in the same breath he mentioned that everyone on the list of 25 that hes considering were conservative judges. So the implication was he already knows that these are people that would be at least not in favor of abortion. That said, other conservative justices have said in their confirmation hearings that they would respect established law and roe v. Wade is established law. Shepard this list came together not through the white house but through an outside group. Tell us about it. It was developed during the 2016 campaign. Very aggressively but the Trump Campaign then and since coming into the white house as a way of saying these are my values, these are the things i look for in a Supreme Court justice. The president likes to say a lot that one of the reasons he think as lot of conservatives supported him in 2016 is because of the Supreme Court. Of course, there was an opening then during that year. Now hes very pleased to have a Second Opportunity to shape the court. Shepard thanks a lot. Mr. Mason, appreciate you. Thanks. Shepard mike pompeo heading back to north korea this week. Remember last month President Trump and kim jongun signed an agreement in which kim said he would work toward giving up his nukes. Theres now theres reports hes doing the opposite of that. So if north korea is doing what theyre not supposed to be doing, we are we over there talking with them . Well, to get them to do what theyre supposed to do. When does the talking become a change in policy . Are they moving the goal posts . Kim jongun and his growing persona coming up. I thought i married an italian. My lineage was the vecchios and zuccolis. Through ancestry, through dna i found out that i was only 16 italian. He was 34 eastern european. So i went onto ancestry, soon learned that one of our ancestors we thought was italian was eastern european. This is my ancestor who i didnt know about. He looks a little bit like me, yes. Ancestry has many paths to discovering your story. Get started for free at ancestry. Com shepard what the world wants is for north korea to abandon its nuclear program. What north korea appears to be doing is expanding its nuclear program. Yet President Trump says talks with the hermit kingdom are growing well. The white house says secretary of state mike pompeo is headed to north korea thursday. His trip comes after our corporate cousins reported north korea is expanding a facility that builds Ballistic Missiles and the analysts say those missiles are capable of striking u. S. Military bases in asia with a nuclear weapon. The president tweeted this morning, many good conversations with north korea. Going well. Meantime, no rocket launches or Nuclear Testing in eight months. All of asia is thrilled, only the Opposition Party, which includes the fake news, is complaining. If not for me, we would be at war with north korea. How does the president say its going well with north korea when u. S. Intelligence agencies saying theyre making more fuel . As i said yesterday, im not going to confirm or deny intelligence reports. We had good meetings with ambassador kim. As you know, secretary of state is headed to north korea. Were continuing to make progress in those conversations. He moving the goal posts though . The goal is the same its always been, denuclearization. Thats what were going to continue to push for and working with them on. Shepard thats the goal. But that is not what is happening. The expansion seems to be the reality. At last months summit, the north korean dictator promised to work towards denuclearization. Its virtually this exact same promise that north korea made and broken for decades. Lets bring in tara maller, spokesperson and Senior Policy Adviser for the counter extremism project. Hi, tara. Hi. Thanks for having me. Shepard goals are great. Reality is awful. How are we any better now than before all of this mess happened . I was here with you after the summit occurred. We talked about how problematic it was that a, we didnt have a transcript of what transpired and b, there wasnt anything tangible and concrete that came out of that discussion. Diplomacy is good. Its a necessary part of this. Its not sufficient. Were not any closer to getting towards denuclearization and we wont be closer until we have a specific timetable with specific guarantees about concessions that the Good Condition<\/a> considering all theyve been through. Seven Thai Navy Seals<\/a> are staying with them in the cave. Future swim instructors . A doctor and nurse there as well. Outside the cave, relatives can do little but wait and pray.

First, we had maximum sanctions and the world together no, north korea. Then we got together, said some words. Now the expansion continues. Things are worse. The threats of sanctions went away. Shepard the real troubling part is in the Washington Post<\/a> a couple days ago. The Intelligence Community<\/a> has reported to the Washington Post<\/a>, been reporting that the North Koreans<\/a> have been ramping up their activities and theres intelligence suggesting theyre going to try to deceive or denial and deception campaigns around how many missiles they have, what theyre going to declare. What we need here and we heard Sarah Sanders<\/a> say the goal is denuclearization. If both sides dont agree to what that means, we wont get there. For the United States<\/a>, it needs to be complete and irreversible and this is key, verifiable. So until you have transparency and declarations from the North Koreans<\/a> about specific amounts of material, where their sites are and until the Intelligence Community<\/a> confirms that, were not actually making progress. Well see if secretary pompeo can make more inroads, this is part of building good will. We shouldnt mistake that for actual progress. Shepard for them, in the past, prior to this administration when things like this have happened, the screaming from whoever the Opposition Party<\/a> has been and goes both ways, you cant appease them, this is helpful for him. Any destabilization that might have happened because the people are tired and hungry and mad at this regime that goes away when you put the president of the United States<\/a> against them. This helped him. Do you grow . I agree that we should not be appeasing in terms of granting concessions without getting anything in return. I dont think President Trump<\/a> should have halted our thwarting our military exercises and i dont think we should be praising a dictator and complimenting him and going over the top that is unnecessary. Diplomacy needs to take place. Well see how it pans out. Shepard tara maller, hope you have a fantastic fourth of july. Thank you. Same to you. Shepard thank you. North and south korea facing off on the basketball court. Dozens of south korean basketball players arriving in pyongyang tad. The South Koreans<\/a> coming to the north. Set to play. Another good show of good will as talks towards peace continue. No word on whether kim jongun will attend any of those matches. Hes known to be a big hoops fan. His favorite team, the chicago bulls, as im sure you know, Dennis Rodman<\/a> made multiple trips to north korea to meet with him. Warm diplomacy. The feds have put shredded documents back together after seizing them from President Trump<\/a>s former fixer, Michael Cohen<\/a>. Now all of a sudden were getting a look at those reconstructed files. First, why somebody flew this drone into a Nuclear Power<\/a> plant on purpose. Its the bottom of the hour, the top of the news is straight ahead. Woman i stay active by staying in rhythm. And to keep up this pace, i drink boost optimum.

The Water Department<\/a> commissioner says she doesnt think thats a problem. 2,000 people lost power. Green peace activists say they flew a drone in the side of a power land to show the lack of security there. Video showed it crashing into the plant in france. An engineer in mississippi testing a rocket engine that could be reused and launched into space repeatedly. Its being tested every 24 hours for ten straight days. The goal, create a space craft that can launch into orbit with days notice rather than months or years. The news continues after this. Child bye, grandpa and if you have Heart Failure<\/a>, entrusting your heart to entresto may help. Entresto is a Heart Failure<\/a> medicine that helps improve your hearts ability to pump blood to the body. In the largest Heart Failure<\/a> study ever, entresto was proven superior at helping people stay alive and out of the hospital compared to a leading Heart Failure<\/a> medicine. Dont take entresto if pregnant. It can cause harm or death to an unborn baby. Dont take entresto with an ace inhibitor or aliskiren, or if youve had angioedema with an ace or arb. The most serious side effects are angioedema, low blood pressure, kidney problems, or high blood potassium. Ask your doctor about entresto. And help make more tomorrows possible. Entresto, for Heart Failure<\/a>. Top of the news. Immigrants that arrive at our border with proof that theyre escaping persecution cannot be locked up. Thats the ruling from a federal judge. Its another setback for the president s zero tolerance immigration policy. At issue here, what happens to those seeking asylum while their applications move through the courts . Its a process that can take years. Under a policy put in place in 2009, people that prove that they have a credible fear of going back home are eligible for release during that waiting period. For the most part, thats exactly whats been happening. Officials have been releasing them. Back in march, the aclu filed a lawsuit claiming that parole rates for Asylum Seekers<\/a> have dropped to nearly zero since the president took office. Casey stegall live in el paso. This represents a large facility there, i understand. Yeah, shepard. On the other side of town in el paso, its one of 4 others across the country named in this lawsuit. So again, el paso, then we have the facility in los angeles, detroit, newark and philadelphia. Those are the other ice offices involved in the suit. Its alleged more than 1,000 people between those offices were denied the humanitarian parole you talked about, even though they met the current guidelines for it. The d. C. Based Federal District<\/a> court judge writing this opinion does no more than hold the government accountable to its own policy, which recently has been honored more in the breach than the observance. Now, the white house has argued all along, shepard, that smugglers and violent criminals come to the border and they exploit the asylum process, pretending to be fleeing their homeland because of persecution, knowing its a loop hole that in the past could get them out of detention faster. Shepard thanks, casey. Imagine your job is to take documents that were run through a shredder and somehow put them back together so they can be read and understand in court. Thousands of them. Tedious much . The fbi is reconstructed shredded documents that it found during raids on the president s former personal lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen<\/a>. Buzz feed news reports its gotten ahold of them. They include insurance papers, finance records and an invitation to meet with business representatives from the nation of qatar. The fbi raids were part of a criminal investigation into Michael Cohens<\/a> business deals. They include a payment to stormy daniels, hush money over the affair she says she had with the then future President Trump<\/a>. The president now denies the relationship. Just this week, Michael Cohen<\/a> told Abcs George Stephanopoulos<\/a> that he will eventually reveal whether the president told him to make that payment. Cohen also said if prosecutors force him to choose between protecting his family or the president , he said my wife, my daughter, my son have my first loyalty and always will. David lee miller live in new york city. The reconstructed shredded documents seized by the fbi and obtained by buzz feed dont have any meaningful new information about Michael Cohen<\/a> despite speculation to the contrary, theres no smoking gun. One document is a march 29, Bank Transfer<\/a> confirmation for 62,500. The payout was hush money to a play bottle model with whom that a man had an affair. Another document is an invitation to a dinner reception welcoming a business associate from qatar. Some of the other documents are rambling letters sent from a california woman that claims donald trump who she has never met wanted to marry her in the 80s. She claims shes a victim of extortion with her home being buzzed by planes and helicopters. Last year the judge said she was a burden on the court system for filing frivolous lawsuits. Also are handwritten notes. One is about the taxi business where cohen had substantial investments. Other pages had jumbled word fragments. In a court filing, the u. S. Attorney told kemba wood that 16 pages of cohens shredded documents. Buzz feed published 13. Its not clear if theres additional material. The u. S. Attorney declined to comment. Thursday is the deadline for the Trump Organization<\/a> to finish examining 23,000 items seized by the government and to request that some be withheld from prosecutors because of Attorney Client<\/a> privilege. The Trump Organization<\/a> wanted another week for the review but the request was rejected by the judge. Shepard . Shepard david lee, thank you.

Theres a new report that indicates in some cases Software Company<\/a> employees are reading through our inboxes. Thats court to an investigation from the wall street journal. That papers Parent Company<\/a> and fox news parent share common ownership. The journal reports google lets hundreds of Application Developers<\/a> scan peoples Gmail Inboxes<\/a> using computer programs or in some cases using human beings. Google representatives tell the journal that they vet the information. If you dont want them in your inbox, well explain how to block them. First, we go to douglas. Good to see you. Thanks for having me. Shepard are they scanning through my subject lines or reading the emails . If you signed up for one of the several hundreds of apps out there that connect to gmail, they may be doing that. Google has opened up gmail to Third Party Developers<\/a> because they think that apps make gmail more useful. Theres an array of productivity tools and travel itinerary tools, all apps that google says help a tract more users making it more useful. As we found in the reporting, a lot of apps are leaking data outside of gmail and potentially to companies that you shouldnt trust with your email data. Shepard theres a lot of ones and you can tell when its happening. Like if you made a reservation on a particular application through which you make dinner reservations, and if you do that and it shows up do you want to plot the address or get an uber, it means theyre talking to each other, right . Yes. Theres a permission screen that says im giving this app permission to access read my emails what weve found, many users dont realize the extent to what that is. Shepard of course not. What that means is human beings reading your emails to help train their computers and algorithms. Shepard do they save it . Do we have a way to know . Emails become something that data miners are more interested in. Were starting to see new businesses mine the data contained in email to find out things like what youre shopping for, what companies youre doing business, who youre talking to. A lot of Sensitive Data<\/a> that markers, hedge funds, other companies are trying to get their hands on. Shepard all right. How do we keep them out of our business . Just be careful and mindful about what youre doing when you connect your email to a third party app. Because google is doing this doesnt mean theyre vetted thoroughly. Id recommend reading privacy policies, going to the fine print and seeing what theyre do. Shepard yuk. If the app is free, its very likely theyre trying to harvest your data in some ways. So figuring out what the Business Models<\/a> are of the companies can help reveal what theyre looking at in terms of your email. Shepard its not bullet points. A lot of pages in there. People dont have the space for that stuff. Its not easy to read privacy policies. Shepard its not fun. Thanks for being with us. Thank you. Shepard lillian has this thing and she will show it us. Its bleepin golden. You can show us i dont want them reading my email. If you go to your g mail, the home page, the first thing to do is get to your google account. Im here in the righthand corner.

The first column, you see sign in and security. Right here apps with account access. Click on that. This will bring you to another page where you can click manage apps, this will show you the apps that will have your Third Party Apps<\/a> that have information. If you click on them, you can see what it has access to and when it was given that access. If you see anything here that makes you uncomfortable, click the remove access button. These are things i truth. I dont want to remove them. Shepard drop box and open table in this case. Google chrome. None of these make me feel uncomfortable. You can see what the app is looking into or if theres something you dont remember getting access to. Youll remove access for those. Shepard its simple if you know how to do it. It is. Shepard well have this on our website at foxnews. Com. If you dont want them reading your email, lillian will show you how to stop them.
