>> steve: 8:00 in the east.

welcome to hour three of "fox and friends." you see president biden yesterday m milwaukee touting the inflation reduction act, one year after signing it, but stayed silent on his son's legal problems, which are vast. >> ainsley: they are, hunter biden losing one of his lawyers after claiming the department backed out of a plea deal. >> brian: down the road in the d.c. bureau, we're covering all of washington, even sand lot sporting events. peter, take it away. >> peter: interesting to see the ap headline. yes, inflation is down. no issue the inflation reduction act doesn't deserve the credit and president biden may be aware that is the case.

the bill is about climate spending, triple what the president told us it would cost climate wise. today it is all on bidenomics. hunter biden is retooling his legal team. lawyer behind the doomed plea deal is out because he, chris clark, may become a witness in this case under the witness rule, inadvisable for mr. clark to stay on this case. withdrawal will not cause a hardship to mr. biden. unable to prove biden benefited from hunter financially trying to prove biden benefited indirectly. here is a text from hunter biden about paying past due bills and hunter writes, my dad has been

using most line on this account, which i have paid for the past 11 years. president biden released his tax return and nothing unusual there so republicans are trying to connect president biden to overseas payment through indirect means, no direct evidence of anything like that yet. >> steve: peter, regarding inflation reduction act, which should be called the joe biden get re-elected acts, the white house feels economic numbers are on joe biden's side, right? >> peter: yeah, they saw headlines talking about economic trends generally describing them as bidenomics as a bad thing. the biden white house people said, we're going to embrace this, this is what is happening, put the bidenomics sticker on everything we do here. yes, they do think it helps

them. >> ainsley: thank you issue peter. if you go on kevin mccarthy website, he's talking the president was in milwaukee yesterday touting how wonderful this is for the economy and said gas prices have gone up 40 cents in one month in milwaukee. they are $3.74 yesterday. gone up 30 cents nationwide, average monthly mortgage payment is higher than a year ago and bidenomics is costing the american family extra $709 compared to two years ago, he calls it a total failure, brian. >> brian: right. the president talks about e employment rate. the other big story, we don't have enough workers to fill jobs that are open, which you might think immigration is the sweet spot if he were able to do that in holistic day.

grow at 1%. debt is quadrupling, if you add in the infrastructure bill, revenue is not there. if you have those two things happening and inflation only growing at 3% les than 8 or 9%, but still growing and add that on top of where we are, people don't walk around and say, good news, unemployment rate is 1.6%. but on credit card interest rates are going up because they are trying to drill down on inflation, mislabeled reduction act. to peter's point about hunter biden losing his attorney and hunter biden legal team saying that david weiss backed out of a plea deal thchl is first time we've seen david weiss push back and say absolutely wrong. you should look in the mirror,

it is solely on you that deal fell,a part. it is first time i've seen him say something adversaryial against the hunter biden team. >> steve: the process has been hidden from public. now talking about gun charge, diversion charge, hunter biden people said, we had a deal and government is going, we did not. back to bidenomics. it will be interesting to see what happens going forward once the republican nominee is chosen on the republican side. they are running ads, america, are you better off today than four years ago? and you feel and we were talking about how at this point in time, according to an analytic company, average american is spending $700 more per month under joe biden than before. as peter pointed out, they are

pushing bidenomics. >> ainsley: mostly grocery store. >> steve: yeah, pushing bike and sometimes it doesn't work out. watch a little of this. >> president joe biden, [cheering] >> uh-oh. well, i'm a little underwhelmed, aren't you all? i think i messed up. >> inflation is down and going lower, when i sign the -- >> wages are growing faster than inflation. folks, that is bidenomics. >> it is clear the clock is not just ticking, it is banging. electricity from wind and solar farms in the arizona desert delivered to people millions of miles away potentially, certainly thousands of miles away. >> steve: bidenomics. >> ainsley: sounds like he was supposed to walk out and said he

didn't. >> brian: he said he mised -- sold us something that was wrong and a year later he said, i knew it shouldn't be named that. he has no problem lying to our face again. >> steve: thanks to joe manchin, it passed, had he stuck with his guns, joe biden would not be talking about the inflation reduction acts, it would not have passed. >> ainsley: talk about crime, that is an issue when we go to the polls to vote. remember nancy pelosi's husband was attacked with a hammer, happened also in connecticut. this police officer got a call, showed up, people said there was banging glass breaking. a female officer is attacked by a man with a hammer saturday night 6:33 p.m. the suspect is 52-year-old man, winston tate.

she said, you can hear on the body camera, she said, please put down the hammer and he said no. watch this, it graphic, we are warning you. >> stop, stop. stop. [screaming] >> steve: mmm. >> brian: that is part of the reason, the danger, the attitude people have toward cops. people are afraid of giving attitude, now people are not giving respect and it started a few years ago. george floyd riots, no one defending the action of the police officer, but beginning in ferg usson and culminating in george floyd given the thought cops are bad, more people running on anti-cop platform and

the criminals are running the streets and there is no hell to pay and that fed into the part that in minnesota, nobody wants to be a cop anymore. chief josh smith, of a town called could you minnesota said, this has been three weeks now. we have zero applicants and zero prospects. there is nobody getting into the game thchl guy wants to resign and has nobody to replace him. if you want to keep the pd and who doesn't want law and order, something needs to change now. we can't say, minnesota better get their act together. no, every major city can sing this song, almost every major one. we see in los angeles and new york city. we see people don't want to do this job anymore, despite the benefit and giving back to your

community and being able to retire at 40, they are saying keep the uniform. >> steve: the chief of police in the town quit and as soon as they saw the chief leaving, everybody else quit. he was a good guy and said, i am stick around until the end of the month to find somebody. the pay is so low, they couldn't find anymore. and this officer that was attacked by the camera, she did shooting, she discharged her service revolver. they both went to the hospital, he is in the hospital, she has been released, he has been charged with assault on public safety and interfering with police and set to go to court first week in october. i would imagine they will play this video in the courtroom.

>> ainsley: wonder if something else is going on, running up antagonizing her. looks scary with his mouth and screaming. what is upon haing in the town, 1300 people, what do they do when they have to call 911? the full-time officer resigned on friday, and now the chief is leaving, he resigned on august 9 at the city meeting. >> steve: in law enforcement and want to live in minnesota, they are looking for law enforcement officers. >> ainsley: you will not make a lot of money. >> brian: cori bush will say, defend the police, you got what you wanted. >> steve: people of the town want protection. >> ainsley: cori was elected, some people agree.

>> steve: and re-elected. >> ainsley: carley has headlines. >> carley: pennsylvania officials identifying the potential cause for the house explosion that killed five people on saturday. fire marshal says the owners were having issues with their hot water tank and an update on the explosion that killed four people including two small children earlier this month in new jersey. investigators determine the blast was caused by enormous amount of explosives in the home, shells and homemade pyrotechnics, along with explosive chemicals. judge holding a hearing over robert f. kennedy lawsuit claiming youtube censored his campaign. the site is bar friday censoring his speech during the 2024 run.

he is accusing google of using misinformation policy to violate his first amendment rights. the company denies wrongdoing. and 2023 mullet kids division just announced, rory erlich taking home the top prize. here is how he and his mom reacts to winning. >> my heart is beating so fast. hysterical and i love it, i love every part of it. been an amazing fun contest and the community has been so awesome, it is overwhelming. >> carley: fantastic moment there, look at that side and back view. rory named his mullet cheddar and said it is not just a hair style, guys, it's a lifestyle. >> steve: it's a winning

lifestyle. >> ainsley: carley, join the fun. >> steve: i just received on our family text, the kids think i look like wayne from wayne's world. >> ainsley: brian missing out. mo morticia, ainsley. >> carley: the hair stylist said, what is happening right now. congratulations, that reaction amazing. >> ainsley: his hair was beautiful. >> steve: cheddar, not cheesy. >> ainsley: they live close to philadelphia and he loves cheddar wizz on the cheesesteak. she was in tears. he won the mullet contest. >> steve: he's been growing it for a year and it paid off.

>> ainsley: something to write his resume. >> brian: work on your sat and get into harvard. >> steve: they don't take that anymore. >> ainsley: true. coming up, bret baier and martha maccallum join us live with just one week from the gop debate. >> brian: former president donald trump indicted again and arizona governor hobbs wants to go for a fifth. there he is. >> steve: i knew they would get my mic up, fox weather wildfire alert, president biden will visit as soon as he can, willis is there and will give a live update next. will, you are next.

hour. former president donald trump fighting back claiming he ha mot will clear his criminal charges in georgia. and arizona weighs prospect of a fifth indictment. >> absolutely, i have been an advocate for holding folks involved in trying to overturn the 2020 election accountable and this is part of that process. >> bryan: wow. former white house speaker, former house speaker newt gingrich author of march to the majority join us now. mr. speaker issue she's walked that back and here is the statement. governor hobbs heard the question wrong and responding

that anyone who breaks the law should be held accountable. you heard her, she possibly wants in on that. what about the indictment if she doesn't walk it back? >> take her line, should al gore electors from florida all been charged? should the chairman of the january 6 committee be charged? this is all crazy. let's be clear what is going on. the last is afraid of donald trump. he is one outsider who has shaken their whole system and they are willing to destroy the law to destroy trump. that is the heart of this. >> brian: what is the result of it? what is the result? >> i believe in the american people. i think this will nominate trump by a land slide and nomination may be over by february 1, i agree with mark halpern on that. if it is between these two

defend the rule of law and corrupt family living out the clinton, obama, biden system, american people will repudiate this. >> brian: should he give this statement on monday? >> i will not second guess donald trump. >> brian: do you believe he could win election sitting in a courtroom, sitting for all the trials? >> i think the day he walks into a courtroom, 15 million people will volunteer to be surrogates campaigning for trump. i think people are so angry with -- the atlanta situation is absurdity. that is anyone with respect would get her out of office. i was told it was orchestrated from washington and after the weiss as special counsel blew up

that friday night somebody called and said, you have to move monday. >> brian: she did, monday night 10:30 after a false start. greg steube filed. that is different. you are for impeachment inquiry, but not for impeachment. >> i am for impeachment. i think speaker mccarthy has it right, we need to move to inquiry to broaden range of questions that the congress can ask. let's get more facts on the table and dig deeper. we don't have all the bank reports, don't have all the money trail. there is a lot we need to know and the country has to come to the conclusion and this is what is wrong with trump attack. the country doesn't believe, no unified national belief donald trump should be sued. there is no unified belief that

biden should be sued. you got to let the facts out, let people think about it. if the country comes together. >> brian: you were excellent debater, strong on the debate stage, what is your advice for eight or nine people on the debate wednesday night? >> i actually watch bridesmaids to prepare. >> brian: that is good, true, just to relax? >> my advice, you better already know what you believe and practice it in 100 speeches. look for two or three moments where you can say the kind of thing that will get picked up by television and repeated. you need two or three good moments. >> brian: i think there is a possibility of trump turning himself in and showing up that night with a dramatic entrance. thank you for coming in, mr. speaker.

>> your two colleagues look better with their natural hair. >> brian: they do? sorry to hurt your feelings, you will not be mullet champion. don't grow a mullet, i like the way your hair is and so do the people of georgia. coming up, hawaii residents are gathering up what is left after their life has been destroyed. will cain joins us live from maui with what he is seeing as the sun comes up. conquer financial reports.

together to support lahaina. it is hard to get over here and get coverage of lahaina. yesterday we had opportunity. friends of mine own gemini sailing charter. i later got a car and went into lahaina, we saw it from water and land. i want to show you images and the story of lahaina. >> will: unique view from the water, board the gemini catamaran. approaching lahaina, off in the distance. just come around the corner and you see it on the horizon, that is what you have seen a bustling town full of life and now it is hard to understand because there is nothing there. you see charred, black, nothingness. there is lahaina.

we have known each other our entire lives. you bought the gemini and moved to maui and this fire breaks out. what do you do with the gemini? >> what we've been doing is trying to help as many people as we can with the vessel we have. the government is not doing their part. it is a community effort. >> will: in west maui, you are in the center of the disaster, but you have the least information. >> exactly. it is hard to navigate or navigate the runs to help people, it is difficult to do. we ran into headaches from the government, which is all over the place. we need federal funding now. >> will: news is after giving no comments, biden administration offered $700 for families evacuated from lahaina. compare that to 40 billion

pledged to a total of 140 billion for ukraine. this, that is america. the captain of this boat, captain brad, he lost his home. he did. got six of the 12 crew and captain, the fire took them down. 50% of people that work on the gemini, it took their homes. brad is driving the boat now. they are hosing down the banyan tree, which is remarkably still standing. the banyan tree is standing, a local arborist believes they can still save the banyan tree.

>> will: we just got off the boat, now we'll head down to ground zero to lahaina town. this is all local neighborhood, not tourist homes, both sides, look how burned out and empty it is. you can smell fire. look at this neighborhood, family homes. this was lahaina. >> will: i want to say thank you to fox for sending me out here and helping me go all in on this story. it is important to america. i appreciate how fox viewers and

decides. >> steve: martha, he is really good at this format, it would be a shame, a lot of people would tune in. imagine being home and you are in westminster and there is his podium and there is ron desantis. >> martha: if he doesn't come, i think he will regret it. he would be center stage, he is in lead poll position by a mile. this is far from over and people on the stage are vying to be the second and third highest contender in the race and that is a hot debate right now. if it were me, i would be there to face this head on. >> ainsley: bret, how do you prepare for something like this, people will be watching, the two of you prepping, what is

moderation like? >> bret: pretty extensive. i like steve's nielsen ratings. we can get to where cleveland was in 2016, really something. we prepare and martha and i have been working with a great staff and research, everybody on the stage will have questions, we'll try to be equal time, try to get them to interact and contrast each other on policy. i think voters want to see how they are different and make it civil and fun and hopefully have some fireworks. the thing we've seen, unpredictable things happen in debates. >> steve: those moments get replayed, that is why i say 60 to 80 million. people will see snipits of it. i was online posting a picture of me and ainsley with our mullets. >> martha: that was the

highlight of my morning, i need a clip for this afternoon. can't get enough. >> steve: i posted picture of us and next down your instagram, clip from vanity fair, fox news debate could put gop in a mine field martha maccallum says. >> martha: these men and women are in a tight race for the second and third spot. who will be big in iowa. chris christie moved ahead of ron desantis in new hampshire, huge battle between the two of them to see who will be prominent? iowa and new hampshire. and i heard newt gingrich talking with brian, you want to nail two or three moments in the debate. the stakes are high, don't walk out going, i missed my moment, nothing happened for me.

>> ainsley: the zingers, the morning consult poll has trump 57%, desantis 16% and vivek now at 9%. why do you think he's doing better and better? >> bret: he says yes to every interview request, getting out and about and taking advantage of free media, and he is good on the stump. not everybody does emenem. >> martha: you should do a rap contest with him on wednesday. >> bret: he is touching interesting cords, interesting to see how he interacts with other. 8-7 is better than 10 or 12 on the stage, more time, more breathing room. it is like spinning plates, trying to be equal with the time. >> steve: keep them spinning. bret, we'll watch you 6 p.m. eastern and martha at 3 p.m.
