becoming a million or several million. we have a man with a plan. he plans to run for president.

right off the bat, do you believe this $100,000 number or is it more? >> thank you for having me. it remains to be seen. this is the sophisticated use of data. maybe it came from target. maybe it came from home depot. used in a very sophisticated way. pulling back even more information. three things that we need to do. obviously, the irs. one question i would ask is is this subject to the same controls as the core tax return systems? they need to make whatever adjustments and they need to make it fast. there are two broader points. you mentioned congress. first, congress should immediately rewrite the laws so

the sequencing of information is different. right now employer waste data and bank financial information comes to the irs after the taxpayers start filing their tax returns. the irs has all the right information so that there is no refund fraud. much less refund fraud. liz: i want to explain to people that this is not a hack. they have earned their way into the system. they were just smart. birth dates, addresses, high schools that people attended. they had a lot of answers. they somehow managed to do this. how big is this going to get? 200,000 attempts. they were managing to get 50 million in fraudulent refunds. the hackers are smarter.

>> they are extremely sophisticated. one on the sequencing of the file information. you mentioned that i am a candidate for president. one of my six points, which were viewers can see online is all about taxes. largely solving this problem. i favor something called the competitive tax plan. bringing in a consumption tax. bringing in 150 million americans off. they cannot go in and claim the refunds. this would be a huge step forward in combating fraud. it would lower corporate rates. it would make a big difference on this identity theft and fraud. who knows where it will go. liz: how serious are you about running for president?

you are a gop presidential candidate. i did not see all the drama that we see when marco rubio announces hillary clinton. scott walker. you are really serious about this? >> i am speaking to you from iowa. we have an active campaign. i was in oklahoma city last week. i beat lindsey graham in the straw poll. yes, we are making a go of this. we are picking up speed. we will have added. liz: i think that you are terrific. in the meantime, you are saying that congress needs to act now and this could get a lot worse at the irs level. thank you. nice to see you. former irs commissioner and gop candidate did we need to hear from you. are you worried?

do you have any sense to whether you have had your data breached? please give us a shout. another massive drama hitting the business world today. the sport that most of the world considers a religion is now being watch for a different reason. a dramatic raid at a luxury motel. people involved in fifa ran away with sheets covering their faces. very wealthy people. charged with corruption and racketeering. loretto lynch has vowed to launch a full investigation into the fifa organization. the future of two world cups and within the balance. who is to blame and does the u.s. somehow -- a sports marker marketing.

are you surprised? >> certainly not surprise, liz. there have been rumors for a long time about the corruption. i think that it is the sponsors like visa, coca-cola. they are the ones that can hold the feet to the fire. if it is proven in court, 2018, 21 a2, moved out of russia. liz: week, the united states, may be considered along with the uk, perhaps. we may be the beneficiaries of what could be a corruption scandal. >> always very fishy. you have a situation where we all knew how hot it was during the summer, yet they seem to not really recognize that.

after they were awarded the world cup, they have moved it to november and december of that year because of the heat. this happened since they were awarded it. liz, i think that the united states, which was a losing bidder for that particular world cup, has a shot if it is reopened. liz: a fifth nomination. he is swiss. he has not been indicted. how could he have not known? this guy is known to world with an iron fist. at some point, will he be flipped him? all kinds of companies. 150 million in bribes that these fifa officials were able to map. >> it is highly unlikely. hard to get a reasonable person to believe that he did not know what was going on. you cannot convince me of that. you are supposed to vote him in for a fifth term this friday.

right now, fifa has lost so much credibility. a lot of people always had their suspicions. they need to take a timeout. they need to regroup. yes, liz, let's be clear, the sponsors, they are the ones that have to step up. sony, adidas, nike. some of these have actually complained about impropriety. >> they have requested that an investigation be done. there was a report that was done. that report was kind of squashed. going forward, i think these other companies will do the same. it can have an impact. tiger woods and the domestic abuse / year. when companies come out and speak, that could impact what

goes forward. liz: we will see. say it ain't so. listen, we are watching this very carefully. we will see if he has been re- upped for his contract as president. today, tech is taking charge. the nasdaq flirting with record territories. i believe we are above at the very moment for the nasdaq. are we? yes? no? yes, we are. 5106. let's get right to it. just one day after stocks got slammed. today, we are watching this. let's get to our floor show. we have ever one involved here. keith, one day after we were hitting lows, suddenly we are at record highs for the nasdaq's. >> expects him about volatility to go right through the week of

june, by our calculation. the s&p 500 may take a little bit longer to play out than the dow. the market has remained in a positive uptrend. none of those levels have been violated. this bounce back is not all that surprising to me. we are seeing a pretty radical divergence between the transport index and the dow jones industrial index. liz: i knew you were going to say that. you are right. there has been a slight divergence here. >> that is right. it may take some time to play out. between the transport and the industrials. this divergence, which is pretty radical, i must point out. the s&p 500 hitting an all-time high last week and the transports hitting a low.

2,002,007. three speed market drop. i think that it is worthwhile for people to pay attention to this. liz: let me go to jo at the cme in chicago. let's not ignore it. a plan to avoid the default of the payment next week. >> you know, not really. greece has been on the radar for the last five years. what everyone is talking about is keeping an eye on the global conditions right now. really, right now what we are watching is at 6150 level. that could come to fruition. extended expansion of volatility. >> we need to watch those. that is a problem. >> yes. think about it.

central bank capital into the world right now. overall in the broad market, 6150 on the ac wia, if that breaks, we could see all the volatility that we are anticipating. >> we have a u.s. dollar that has resumed much higher. very bad news for oil. today, oil continues to move. >> yesterday's drastic move is definitely why we were down. this morning at about 4:00 a.m. eastern time, you saw oil of about 70 or $0.80. we look to trade lower going into tomorrow's numbers. we had draws two weeks in a row. getting out of $54. >> 2 million barrels. we will have it right here on fox business.

net jet's and its pilots. it does fractional ownership with wealthy people is looking to cut pilots. net jet is run by warren buffett the oracle of omaha. we picked up the interview with warren buffett, and here's what he said about the net jet pilots that want more. >> they average about $145,000 annually. and they're on for seven days and off for seven days. they like the work arrangements. they like that they can enter the system at almost anyplace. we don't see our pilots going elsewhere. they have good jobs. we have a good business. liz: it's a dispute that's dragged on for some years. is that the way pilots really feel? joining us now, pedro is the president of net jet's association of shared pilots, the union

representing net jet's pilots. okay. are you guys going to strike? this is going on for so long, at some point, pedro, there is a massive stalemate, someone has to move on this. >> we're currently in mediation. we're probably ten or 12 months before we can request to go on strike. liz: you have to request to go on strike? >> we have to request under the rules we work under to have the ability to go on strike. and we're probably ten or 12 months. but if management continues down this path, we feel like we have no other option other than going on strike. >> warren buffett told me and fox business that these pilots are happy. they do well. they make 145,000. what did you make last year? >> i made somewhere in the lower 90,000-dollar range. >> is that because your time was split between running the union -- >> no, i've been here ten years.

they're flying 200 people at a time. isn't that an apples to kiwis comparison. >> there are differences. but a pilot is a pilot. net jet's pilots, we have the world class pilots. in order to retain world class pilots, you have to pay what's commensurate with our -- >> there's been a lot of change at the top. richard who first ran net jet and then david -- now jordan who is an attorney. very capable. i've talked to jordan many times. you have to keep us posted on this. i can't imagine this drags on for much longer before you guys say we're out. you say 98 pilots have been left or been fired the last couple of years. >> our own internal polling is saying 35% of the pilot group is looking toggle to go elsewhere. >> i witnessed the protest, they were respectful. quiet. right outside. they were walking in

♪ liz: do you use uber? my kid is -- yeah, my uber car is here. what? huge here in new york. but there is a huge battle too. the latest battle over uber is heating up in the big apple as one major taxi financier finally launches a major

lawsuit. charlie: this is the first official step in melrose credit union. one of the biggest financiers, to pick up someone on the street, you need a medallion. sometimes these owners lend their cars to someone else. you need a medallion to pick up people on the street. an exclusive right. liz: is it literally a medallion. they cost a million dollars? >> it's gone down since uber. that's why the established taxi industry -- new york city taxi, this is a big story. new york city is the home of the taxi. it's an iconic image of the taxi. probably more taxis here than any other place in the country. now, the taxi industry is fighting back and very viciously. melrose financial, three other banks that finance these medallions who are worried about getting repaid -- when they lend money to people who bought these medallions have filed an injunction basically saying that new york city and new york state is violating

the law, they are not preventing uber from picked up what is the functional equivalent of a street hail. it doesn't matter if you do it on your app or not -- liz: lift your arm. >> when you say pick me up in three minutes or now, i'm on the corner of 59th and second, or whatever, that's the equivalent of lifting your arm and standing in the street. >> it is not. >> that's what they're saying. the lawsuit demands that new york city files with new york city taxi laws. the bank says that (?) these street hails are essentially prohibited under law. here's the interesting thing, they say this is the sort of first step to a -- a multibillion-dollar -- i spoke with the bank's spokesperson. multibillion-dollar takings claim that the city -- they'll sue the city, they'll sue the state, and they'll say, you have allowed us to be ripped off by not enforcing a law multi billion dollars. we want that money.

the taxi limousine commission of new york city says they will review the papers. we will get them. no comment. we put calls into new york state. eric is named in the lawsuit because he's a chief legal officer of new york state. uber has no immediate comment. i will say this about this -- about this suit, and it's a fascinating reading. i haven't read the whole thing. skimmed it because we got it. if you look at page 100 of the lawsuit. liz: you skimmed all the way to -- >> paragraph -- >> oh, paragraph. >> i was directed to this. i'm not that fast a reader. i'm a dyslexic. it says in that paragraph that using an app in a different case is a functional equivalent of a street hail. that new york city itself in defending itself -- liz: well, i don't know what they're drinking. but that's not -- charlie: so what they're saying is new york city has already admitted that basically the app,

the notion of calling a cab on an app is the functional equivalent of a street hail. they said that -- they cite the corporation council of new york city. the lawyer for new york city making that case and claim. i think the lawsuit has legs. i can't tell you who will win. i can tell you that the battle -- as uber's valuation is skyrocketing. right? $50 billion right now. an investor on anthony scaramucci wall street week. listen, said this, listen they increased their valuation by 15 billion in one week. this company is growing fast. and, you know, it is going to face -- it is going to face some degree of legal pressure. i can't tell you who will be successful. but, you know, i think -- i don't know. no offense, but using uber is not quite like calling a limo company. >> it is not like calling a limo. >> it's mostly like -- >> when they show up, they're polite.

>> it's mostly like hailing a cab. new york city's taxi industry is highly regulated. it cost money to get that. liz: well, a peach is like a nexnectarine, but they're not te same. charlie: that's a good point. maybe the judge will say that. we'll see. fair and balanced. we'll cover it. dick folds from lehman brothers. first time since 2008. liz: where? >> at some conference. we'll have a major story about fold coming out about what he's doing since leaving lehman's. very controversial. liz: everyone stay tuned for that. twenty-eight minutes away for closing bell. green arrows all around. attention, meat eaters, from beef to chicken, a lot of food for thought coming up. the money-making potential is huge. forget the mug, forget the tie, forget the golf clubs, the apple wasp, omaha steaks. look at that. they say they're the
