tv   The Real Story With Gretchen Carlson  FOX News  October 30, 2014 11:00am-12:01pm PDT

11:00 am
these years, you never knew what happened. >> how far we've come. how things have changed in the world of aviation in a relatively short time. >> you, my pilot friend, would know. >> i fly a lot. >> the real story with gretchen carlson starts right now. >> fox news alert. we have tough talk from the governor of maine after officials failed to reach a quarantine agreement with nurse casey hickox who treated ebola patients in west africa. we are here to bring you the real story. a spokesperson says the g of maine will exercise the full extent of his authority, allowable by law to insure public safety. this comes just hours after casey hickox defied quarantine orders and went out for a bike ride this morning. portland press herald staff writer scott dolan has been covering this from the start, and he joins us from casey hickox's home. what can you tell us about what transpired with the bike ride? >> sure.
11:01 am
they told me that they went out for a bike ride and they did. they were followed by state police here, and -- they were out for about an hour and came back and went inside. >> it's my understanding that there's been some sort of a discussion going on between the governor's people and casey's people because there were other inklings that something else was going to happen here. maybe something of a blood test. now the governor is not backing down. he just put out this press release a few moments ago saying he is going to exert his total political authority. what do you make of that? >> it all happened in the last two hours. the negotiations broke down. we heard word that the governor -- i went to the door. knocked on it. casey opened. she said she hadn't seen anything in writing. that was about noon.
11:02 am
>> if there was a blood test to show that she doesn't have he oh bowl right now -- it's a cat and mouse game. everybody thinks she went on that bike ride as an effort to send a message in her own way, right? >>. >> after her boyfriend -- he said he commented on the media following them, and he said that's a good thing, following media. they're obviously using the media to their advantage in this -- trying to get their -- >> what are the neighbors of casey saying to you? >> i talked to the neighbors across the street -- across the road a little bit, and they said at first they were reluctant to have her come back, but their mind is changed after the local -- the head medical -- went on air and talked to people about the science of ebola and she's not showing symptoms, she's not contagious. people change their minds and
11:03 am
seem to be more reseptive to her. >> all right. scott dolan, who has been outside of casey hickox's home since monday, covering this story. thank you for joining us, scott. >> thank you. that nurse refusing to be confined to her home in maine, and law enforcement keeping a watchful eye as state troopers are told to track her every move. joining us now, tom, fort kent, maine, police chief. great to have you on the show, chief. so you have a new responsibility this week. that is called watching nurse casey hickox. who is doing this? do you have one trooper outside of her house? >> no. i do not work with the state police. i'm the police chief here in fort kent, maine. the state police, actually, have an administration who has -- is working at the governor's request to track casey.
11:04 am
we are not. they have troopers posted outside of her house, and they are going to monitor her movements, and we have not been told anything otherwise to monitor. not restricting and not preventing her from leaving her house in the immediate area. >> so, chief, how has this changed the way in which your y? >> it's raised some concerns amongst our citizens here in fort kent, and, you know, we have been reinforcing what the medical professionals have been telling us that she is not symptomatic. she does not display any symptoms of ebola. as the doctor has noted earlier that we do not have an ebola
11:05 am
patient in this state. she is taking precautions, and following the federal cdc guidelines from what we understand. so that being said, if we're also reinforcing that she's not exhibiting the signs, so the only way that ebola can be contacted is, in fact, coming into contact with bodily fluids and we're going by what the experts are telling us. >> okay. >> so. >> it is state troopers who are outside of her home, and they would get a directive from the attorney general or the governor of that state, not your police force. >> we're working in conjunction with the state police. we have a liaison with them, and we work happened in hand with them. we are both police agencies in
11:06 am
the area. our orders here through our office are to are from the town of fort kent. >> you are listening to the chief of police in fort kent, maine. chief, thank you for your time today. >> we will have much more on the ebola crisis, including an st. louis scloous interview with yale graduate student ryan boyko that was released from a it 2 1-day kwaurn fine after testing negative for ebola. we'll ask him what it's like to spend three weeks in isolation, and what he thinks about the situation going on in maine coming up later this hour. >> mcfarland is a security analyst and former deputy
11:07 am
assistant secretary of defense during the reagan administration. 20 to 30 former gitmo detainees. weren't these supposed to be the people that were just perfectly fine to leave that situation in cuba and go back home? they would never commit acts of terror again, right? >> in the presence of baghdad where the sunni and military officers were sent and they shared cells with a lot of the radical imams. they then got together, and that's the birth of isis. we know that al qaeda grew up in the prisons -- >> president obama's very first
11:08 am
order -- was to close gitmo, and that has never happened. so, first of all, why and would that have been an even bigger problem? >> well, first of all, i think we should say that the bush administration also released prisons from gitmo. >> sure. >> they were supposed to be rehabilitated. they were not going to go back and join the fight. we were sending them to friendly countries where they would be imprisoned. well, it turns out they went in one prison door and outer the other to go rejoin the fight. part of it is both administrations. the other part is nobody has known what to do with these prisoners at gitmo. nobody has been able to figure out, well, should we bring them to trial? maybe there isn't the right kind of evidence? maybe we shouldn't bring them to trial, but we don't want to release them. it's a conundrum of what do you do with these prisoners? releasing them and having them rejoin the fight, they're not going back. they're going back as hardened fighters. they're even more committed to killing americans. >> they're excited that isis is in existence.
11:09 am
>> they wanted us to find them. part of this is putin, his regime sending us a signal. don't mess with me. no more sanctions. whatever i do in the eastern europe, i don't want a reaction because look what i can do. i can scramble my jets. i can scramble my fighters, my bombers, and i can even hack into the white house computers.
11:10 am
>> could this fight change the political landscape from the midterm elections? molten lava more than a football field away from a road that has potential to cut a town in half and strand the people living there with no supplies or no way out. >> and governor chris christie proving once again he doesn't back down to critics. yet another heckler and yet another classic christie response. so does that make you see him more as presidential or not? >> whatever. get in line. get in line. i've been sued lots of times before. she had access to the internet, and we brought her take-out food.
11:11 am
hey, how you doin'? it hurts. this is what it can be like to have shingles, a painful, blistering rash. if you had chicken pox, the shingles virus is already inside you. 1 in 3 people will get shingles in their lifetime. i wish that there was something i could do to help. the shingles rash can last up to 30 days. talk to your doctor or pharmacist about your risk. virtually all your important legal matters in just minutes. now it's quicker and easier for you to start your business, protect your family, and launch your dreams. at legalzoom.com we put the law on your side.
11:12 am
11:13 am
welcome back to the real story.
11:14 am
lava yards away from a house on the outer edge. dozens of homes and businesses sitting directly in the path of the molten stream. the flow spreading out. unfortunately, it's getting wider by the day. it looks kind of pretty, but it's not. the leading edge doubling in size just yesterday from about 25 yards to 50 yards wide. the slow-motion pace giving folks plenty of time, though, to get out of its way. well, back to ebola now because governor paul lepaige releasing that -- to abide by quarantine orders. now the governor has decided to exercise the full extent of his authority under state law to address what he calls the threat to the public safety. all this coming at a very crucial moment. the real clear politics average, the latest polls, shows lepage in a statistical dead heated with his op independent. guy benson, political editor for town hall.com and a fox news contributor. wow, it's amazing, guy, to see
11:15 am
how this whole ebola thing could actually affect the midterm electrics just five days away. explain how you see it with regard to the state of maine. >> well, more generally, gretchen, i'll say this sort of reminds me of 2012 and hurricane sandy, right, where you have this outside event. you can call it an october surprise or an autumn surprise where not many political strategists have had an ebola page in their playbook a few months ago. when you've got that type of iss issue. >> a left-leaning independent, and it's awfully tight. >> right. >> here you have the governor thrust into the spotlight almost a national spotlight now because
11:16 am
of this nurse and his handling of this could very much impact whether or not he wins. >> yeah. it's interesting. he is taking a hard line stance. especially within just the last hour sxishgs know that you have been looking at the polls. is that a good thing for him or not? >> politically he is absolutely on tera firm wra. if you look at the latest cbs news poll, 80% of the american people support a harder line quarantine regime. >> wow. >> particularly when it comes to health care workers who were in west africa, whose job literally was to be in contact with ebola. >> right. >> i mean, it's a little bit weird where at the national level you have the administration announcing soldiers who are returning are going to be quarantined, but health care workers aren't necessarily going to be quarantined, and sort of chiding governors on the health care workers. it's just bizarre sort of double standard that i think most people don't do. >> it's total mixed messaging, and that's why, you know, you're seeing all these governors making their own sdigs because many people would argue there's no leadership from the top.
11:17 am
i want you to take a look at the dead heat now. amazing revelations in new hampshire with scott brown formerly a senator of massachusetts, and incumbent jeanne shaheen basically a dead heat. again, you could argue that some sort of an october surprise. i'm talking now about national security with isis could affect this race. correct? >> no question about it. it wills every already has. if you look at the trajectory of the polling data in new hampshire, scott brown was down nine, ten points a number of weeks ago, and he has steadily eaten away at jeanne shaheen's lead. i think he is behind by a little bit. it will all come kun to turnout. she's probably ahead by a hair. >> she has been hard cord on border sdurt and isis, a marshall security, and ebola. in a debate jeanne shaheen accused him of fear mongering, and she said, no, senator, these are rational fears.
11:18 am
these are things that people have a good reason to be concerned about. we have to take these head on. that's a message that has resonated. >> i just want to correct because he has corrected me before on the real story. he is not a former member of the military. is he still in the national guard. i believe. >> there gu. >> all right. guy, great to see you. just before election day. thanks so much. >> absolutely. thanks, gretchen. >> the ntsb rushing to the scene after a deadly plane crash lands into the side of a building. sending this plume of smoke into the sky. we will tell you where this happened and why. plus, gas prices taking a welcome drop. so what's behind this new trend? how low could they go? plus, one day until halloween. oh, my goodness. this is a surprise. no, i'm not going to be donning my pumpkin costume from when i was 5 years old, but maybe my kids will. that brings us to our question of the day. what is your favorite halloween costume from childhood? come on. do you have the pictures? i just showed mine. send me your pictures and tweet
11:19 am

it's a fresh approach on education-- superintendent of public instruction tom torlakson's blueprint for great schools. torlakson's blueprint outlines how investing in our schools will reduce class sizes, bring back music and art, and provide a well-rounded education. and torlakson's plan calls for more parental involvement. spending decisions about our education dollars should be made by parents and teachers, not by politicians. tell tom torlakson to keep fighting for a plan that invests in our public schools.
11:22 am
>> because the faa is investigating a deadly plane crash in kansas after a twin engine prop plane reportly lost engine power shortly after takeoff slamming into a building at wichita, midcontinental airport while trying to make an emergency landing. four people were killed inside that building. fire crews taming those flames as a smoke billowed and could be seen for miles. five otherured. four others still missing. the search was called off after part of that building collapsed.
11:23 am
>> the national average for a gallon $3.01. ruse the country prices are well below the $3 mark. texas average is $2.81. south carolina, $2.76. joining us now from our sister network, fox business network jolene kent is here with what's behind this trend. >> well, basically you see a bigger supply of oil, so crude oil prices are falling because of that. >> here in the united states the smaller oilfields are producing more than a lot of analysts originally thought. >> wow. very interesting. okay. the first thing that i thought about was, oh, there must be a connection to the midterm elections next week.
11:24 am
>> then you have thanksgiving coming around the corner, and a lot of people will be driving to grandma's house. >> they're thinking, you know, it's just the day before i need to fill up, and the prices are going to skyrocket. >> it is definitely possible that the prices will move around, but the good news for consumers out there for the drivers is as long as the prices stay low, it actually is good for the broader economy. >> i know you don't have a crystal ball, but we'll see prices under $3 and maybe even lower in the future. >> yeah. it's very possible. right now 55% according do triple-a actually gas stations actually already have prices below $3, so that's really good news if you are looking to drive long distances. travel for the holidays coming up.
11:25 am
>> if you're not sure where to find it in your area, log to fox business.com/channel finder. >> well, not high in comparison to europe or elsewhere, but certainly high for the united states, right? five years ago on fox and friends, i said gas over $3 a gallon had become the new normal in our country. why? because as each month passed and gas was still priced high, it seemed as if hardly anyone cared. maybe average americans like you and i did, and our voices just weren't heard. just seems to me that the white house press corps, other than fox news reporters, didn't seem that interested in drilling down on president obama's spokes people as to why gas prices kept going up.
11:26 am
>> even though he never tested positive for it. why he says he is outraged about his treatment. plus, governor chris christie tapping into his inner jersey boy in a very big way. what got him all righted up and what it could mean for the midterms and beyond.

fox news alert. yale graduate student now free from a 21-day kwaurn fine after state officials in connecticut feared he may have contracted ebola. ryan boyco says he says that he was working at the liberian government to develop a computer program to track the virus. three days after returning home he developed a fever and other symptoms and was hospitalized. he later tested negative for ebola, but because of concob's new he bowl policies and his exposure to the nbc cameraman who was successfully treated for the disease at nebraska medical center, that quarantine was in
11:31 am
effect. joining me now is ryan boyco, a third year graduate student in yale's school of public health, and he is just released from quarantine just last night. look, he is back in his house under quarantine speaking to me. thanks for being here, ryan. >> you're welcome. thanks for having me. >> what's the first thing you did when you could leave your house? >> i went and saw my girlfriend and spent a morning out, went to a coffee shop and went around town a little bit. >> all right. well, i imagine she was glad to see you, and you were glad to see her. what do you make of the whole situation that you found yourself in, the quarantine? did you like it? did you think it was the right move? did you hate it? >> no, it's -- the -- it's a terrible policy, and in my own case, it's particularly bad because was actively monitoring myself for symptoms and signs, and then i reported when i did get that fever, and so they took
11:32 am
me to the hospital and tested for ebola, tested negative. my symptoms resolved. then that is when the state put me in quarantine. the one thing we know that works to prevent ebola from being transmitted is when people monitor their symptoms and then report when they do have symptoms, and they can get tested, and if they're negative, then they're let go. if they're positive, they're isolated and treated. so this is a disinnocentive for people to do the one thing that does work. you know, if you do it and then you get essentially punished by house arrest after you have done it. >> okay. you know, it's really interesting because the governor currently in the state of connecticut is governor malloy, who is a democrat, and he is the one who imposed this quarantine, and then you have other democrat and republican governors across different states doing the same thing, so politics doesn't seem to be at play here. i'm wondering what you think.
11:33 am
>> we had four people in america diagnosed with ebola. except for the first case they were all promptly isolated, and in that first case -- so you don't have ebola in the community in the general, you know -- they're in the general community. the level of precautions and the way that you have to treat it is very different when you have hundreds of cases a week in one city like monrovia versus four cases in a month in an entire nation as big as the united states. >> okay. i have to ask you this because you decided to not defy the quarantine that was imposed on you. casey hickox has. she went out today on a bike ride. what do you think about that situation? >> well, you have to keep in mind when i was put under
11:34 am
quarantine, connecticut was the only state that had gone anywhere near that far over what the federal guidelines, the science-based guidelines are, and so myself and the team of public health and legal people who i had been talking to decided the best thing to do would be to quietly apply political pressure through the doctors and scientists in connecticut to governor malloy and the commissioner for public health to try to get them to walk back the policy quietly. now, you know, this is a national issue. this is getting a lot of press attention. there's no -- there's no chance for that kind of thing to work anymore, so i think that a different strategy might make sense now. >> well, you are out of quarantine. i've read that you may go away a few days with your girlfriend, which i guess would be justifiable at this point in time, and, of course, get back to your day job as well. ryan boyco, thank you for joining us from connecticut today.
11:35 am
>> all right. thank you. so president obama's foreign policy flying apart at the seams. key players on his team all heading off in different directions, and nobody seems to be on the same page. chief white house correspondent ed henry hanging out in the president's front yard. we're in the middle of a war. why would the president's national security aides be sniping at each other? >> it's a good question. you know, this story in the "new york times" is suggest thering may be a house cleaning after the midterm elections of the national security team, in part, because the bottom line is it seems like these advisors are wasting time sniping at each other instead of having a singular focus on waging a war against isis militants, dealing with other problems around the world. for example, white house officials sniping away at secretary of state john kerry. the times saying, "white house officials joke that he is like the astronaut played by sandra bullock in the movie "gravity" somersaulting through space, untethered from the white house because of some of the statements he makes, not being on the same page with them."
11:36 am
the story also suggested infighting between the white house chief of staff dennis mcdonna and susan rice, the national security advisor, but secretary kerry today dismissed all of this as mere gossip and rumor. listen. >> i will tell you thatñi the coordination and relationship between susan and me and dennis and the team is as tight as i've ever experienced sfwloosh now, remember this latest anonymous sniping within the administration comes just one day after there were anonymous administration officials attacking the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu calling him a coward and worse. gretchen. >> all right. ed henry in the front yard of the white house. i like that phrase. ed. >> so back to more election stuff now because governor chris christie of new jersey unleashing his inner attack dog. lashing out at a heckler during an event marking two years since superstorm sandy.
11:37 am
watch this. >> so turn around. get your 15 minutes of fame, and then maybe take your jacket off, roll up your sleeves and do something for the people of this state. >> yeah. good. there's been 23 months since then when all you've been doing is sflap flapping your mouth and not doing anything. listen, you want to have the conversation later? i'm happy to have it, buddy, but until that time, sit down and shut up. >> wow. to the point. tony is a fox news contributor. julie, a former political advisor to the late new jersey senator frank lautenberg and a fox newsçó contributor. this is in your wheelhouse, julie. >> it is. i happen to know the guy. >> it's your state. >> it is my state. we're not all like that, people of america. we're not all bullies from a podium. >> oh. >> look, this is the chris christie reality show that those of us from new jersey and working in jersey politics have been subjected to for the past five, six years. >> this is what people like
11:38 am
about chris christie. >> not in a president, i don't think. >> it certainly is part of the christie authenticity that served him so well. this is a governor who is a member of a party that has basically the least amount of registered voters in the state that he won by double digits, so people do like the fact that he stands up for what he believes, and he isotology take a stand based on how he feels at a moment. in this case this wasn't just a garden variety heckler. this was a liberal democrat activist that's known to the governor and his administration to be an antagonist who was a former councilman in asbury park, new jersey, and who has been cantankerous to the governor in the past. the governor called him out on it. >> is it a fine line between being out there and telling it like it is, which i do think the american people like, especially with politicians who don't usually do that, but is there a fine line, julie, between that and to use your words, looks a little bit like a bully? >> well, let's not forget where
11:39 am
the governor was, right? he was at a podium surrounded by his security detail. surrounded by people who are literally hand picked to be in the audience for the most part with him. republican activists and others. tony knows this because he worked in new jersey too. so you have -- it's really apples and oranges. then you have a guy who, by the way, from what i understand, was actually helping to rebuild asbury park in bellmawr where they were coming out and saying, hey, governor, you're not quickly as i want you to be on rebuilding, and chris christie, getting his big mojo up, saying, come here and take it from me. well, wait a second. if that guy took chris christie up on his challenge, he would have been tackled by i don't know how many state troopers and i don't know how many other people protecting the governor. this may sell well as a reality show because this is what people think new jersey is. they think it's tony "sopranos", jersey shore. >> david axlerod, who used to come one of president obama's main people said this quote. "i think he thinks that this kind of "sopranos" approach to politics marks him as a strong leader. i think it marks hem as an angry
11:40 am
man." >> it's ironic coming from david axle rod that turned every critique of president obama as a racial critique. i think it's unbecoming. the reality is authenticity is what is done christie so well so far. yes, there are times where it could perhaps be overdone, but julie will tell you. you don't bow and curtsy your way through new jersey politics. you do need a strong, tough leader that stands for something and who is willing to actually engage in these type of conversations with people that are not typically political. >> why is it that governor christie has raised more money in his role leading all governors, $102 million -- why is it he has been so successful at that? is it his straight talk? >> well, i have a column at fox news.com about this very topic right now. he has raised a lot of money. he is very los to people on wall street. he is obviously very close to moneyed interests. the problem for chris christie is this. he has raised more money than anybody else. he may be the first rga
11:41 am
chairman, governor association chairman in a generation who has raised all this money, but may actually lose seats even as his own party is picking up seats in washington. there's a good chance the senate will go republican. there's a good chance that republicans will pick up house seats. there's a very good chance that he as chairman of the rga will actually net lose governors this november. that's not good for chris christie. especially the fact that he has raised all this money. it may all be wasted sfwloosh we'll see what happens in four to five days. >> thanks. >> breaking news on ebola in new york city. the city saying it's actively monitoring nearly 120 people who have recently returned from ebola-stricken countries? more details on this breaking news coming up next. and eight men accused of running an illegal gambling operation in vegas say the way the fbi gathered the evidence during the sting is totally illegal and the case should be thrown out. why they actually might have a case. and the ambassador to the u.n., sam than power showing off her new signature move on a trip abroad.
11:42 am
no, it's not a new dance craze yet. why she probably won't be using this handshake stateside. right back. before larry instantly transferred money from his bank of america savings account to his merrill edge retirement account. before he opened his first hot chocolate stand calling winter an "underserved season". and before he quit his friend's leaf-raking business for "not offering a 401k." larry knew the importance of preparing for retirement. that's why when the time came he counted on merrill edge to streamline his investing and help him plan for the road ahead. that's the power of streamlined connections. that's merrill edge and bank of america.

11:46 am
shares posted about each candidate. while interpreting the data and showing who is up in each congressional district. so right now the numbers are showing what? who will really come out on top? time for some real tech and political talk with lance, editor in chief of mashable.com. >> hey. >> great to see you again, lance. let's go to the state of florida. >> so we're in florida, but, of course, the data is not quite coming up. actually, what's interesting is right now you can see the map, and the map is really important on facebook's midterm election dashboard because that represents people in the voting district. the people who live in those places are affecting the colors and which direction they're leaning, republican or democrat when you look at the map there. what are you supposed to see bloer below are likes and engagements. maybe if we go and try a different state. >> the computer has ebola. >> it's all about wi-fi, honestly, and if you try and get to some of the states here, let's see if we can get to -- i'm sorry.
11:47 am
>> i think we're going to go to the tape of it because none of the states work. >> none of the states are coming right up. >> in florida in the governor's race between rick scott and charlie crist. typically have you cri -- rick scott with more likes, right? you have more people talking about charlie crist. what does that mean? >> engagement is so story. when people are -- likes are very easy. like is just you press that little button. the little thumbs up. that's a like. engagement is about doing more. it's about talking about the candidate. we want to be careful here so you understand that the numbers you see, the lorz you see in the map represent people who live there. the numbers you see below are broad.
11:48 am
