5:02 am
♪ one way or another -- pete: wow. rachel: i'm just loving that we're playing blondie. pete: i want to know more about pennsylvania. will: you know what it made me want to do? isn't it called falling water? the frank lloyd wright house? it's in pennsylvania, i think. rachel: yeah, it is, actually. will: hyde like to see that. i see the picture -- pete: isn't he the modern architecture guy? will: modern at this point -- rachel: mid-century kind of a thing. some stuff is really cool. i like mid-century -- will: i like mid-century, i like art deck eco. that's the quintessential -- you go to rockefeller center, that's american. we did that. we didn't copy somebody else, you know? rachel: yeah. i still love neo-classical, and i'm down with beautiful buildings, buts there is something -- when done right -- will: and, pete, i don't want to live in necessarily a modern
5:03 am
house. pete: that's maybe what i'm talking about. will: if you ever go to the metropolitan museum of art in new york -- pete: i've been. will: there's a room that's a frank lloyd wright room. and it's hard to diabetes it. you walk in, and it makes sense. everything, oh, my gosh, all the lines and the proportions and the height and the furniture, it just all makes sense in a way that makes me want to see more of his stuff. he did a whole suburb in chicago. he did this falling water, and he's sort of the historical -- i think he is -- the prototype for howard roarke and ayn rand's fountainhead, he's the hero of the book. i don't know. there's your morning lesson -- pete: you should do a package on "fox & friends" for frank lloyd wright. i i just two to the painting of george washington crossing the delaware, which is huge. rachel: it's gorgeous.
5:04 am
another person some say is gorgeous -- [laughter] governor governor newsom -- pete: you say. rachel: he is good looking, let's not lie. will: every time. pete: it's your leading talking point. he's also a socialist, rachel. rachel: i know if. he's a very good looking socialist. will: i'm not sure he's a socialist -- rachel: he might be a commie. a good looking socialist, narcissist commie. and he's from the state of california. [laughter] and a lot of people wondering -- by the way, he's taking credit for, you know, having is sort of knocked down ron desantis. because if you recall -- will: is he really? the debate on hannity? rachel: yeah, he's kind of taking credit for, listen, the dnc wasn't going enough after desantis, id had to step in there and do this. he's taking credit for the rise of ron desantis in the republican primary. here he is talking about whether he could win a swing state in a hypothetical matchup with -- here he is with bill maher.
5:05 am
>> you know, i saw you with debating desantis. i said, you know, i'm trying to get this guy to run for president a long time. i mentioned i think you'd be good at the job. no this year, we know. [laughter] no, i know. but he said i don't think he could win. i don't think he could win. he's too progressive. this is a progressive, african-american-owned station. i'm sure they like you but doesn't think you could win. what do you say to that? if you could win the -- look at the swing state thes. eight of them. >> right. well, california's an interesting case study, isn't it? it's the size of 21 state populations combined. two-thirds of the state is very deeply red. in so many ways, these are familiar issues. the issues of the heartland and the united states are very much part and parcel of the state. but, look, i understand this notion that you're from the coast, you don't understand those things, you can't talk the language, you're not able to communicate, you're not able to actually encourage and find tha- rachel: so bill maher also asked him, you guys, about the fact
5:06 am
that he mandated gender-neutral toys in california department stores. so, i mean, he got asked some pretty interesting questions. will: he did, by the way. rachel: he did. and, yeah. will: a department store of over 500 employees, they made a law at the threat of $250-500 fine if you do not have a sec of your toy section for gender -- pete: declared gender-neutral. will: correct. pete: that sounds about on par for california at this point. [laughter] all the way. by the way, so what is this race on the democrat party right now? we see the banner that says the future of the democrat party. is the future of the democrat party joe biden? is it the guy you just watched, gavin newsom? is it kamala harris, or is it dean phillips who's really the only one actually campaigning outright as a democrat against joe biden? he's in new hampshire where they've already tried to basically declare the new hampshire, it's not a thing for
5:07 am
democrats. south carolina is the place where they're starting their democratic process. but dean phillips is in new hampshire. he's campaigning, and will had a chance to talk to his campaign manager, jeff we're, about what he's up -- jeff weaver. here's how he tried to explain their status in the democratic party. >> the excitement on the ground is grow, the crowds are growing, and we think we're going to surprise here in new hampshire. not necessarily that we're going to beat him outright, but we're going to do much better than people think, and it's going to spark a movement across this country to get a nominee on the democratic side that can beat donald trump. i encourage people in new hampshire and all across this country to get out and vote. the antidon't to anti-democracy is not less democracy. some in the democratic party seem to hi you fight authoritarianism with less democracy, and i just disagree. pete: i didn't understand a lot of that. will, rachel and i were watching while you were interviewing --
5:08 am
will: his answer? pete: he finally answered a little bit -- can. rachel: you did a good job of trying to pinpoint him. rachel: don't you think it's fascinating? the three of us would agree that, like, you should run on a platform that democracy's at stake while at every turn the undercutting the process of democracy,ing your own primary, donald trump on the ballot. i just wondered what his answer would be. i'm not sure -- pete: he kind of did at the end. but, you know, they're democrats, after all, going after a sitting, incumbent president. either you take the gloves off or you don't. dean phillips has got to have a huge showing in new hampshire, to even have a blip are on the radar. and jeff we'rer, he saw -- weaver, he saw bernie sanders get submarined twice -- will: absolutely. pete: exactly. it's not democratic. rachel: i say they're going to replace joe biden. it's not going to be with dean fill rips. it's not going to be with gavin
5:09 am
newsom. if you noticed this week and last week as well, more talk about michelle obama. i still think that's in the cards. the wheels are coming off of joe biden -- will: or nikki haley. rachel: oh, right, asen an independent. will: there's already democrats crossing over. pete: there's conversation about the no label, a unity ticket there. as we said, expect the up expected. -- unexpected. it's going to be a crazy ride. nothing is inevitable at this point certainly on the democrat side with joe biden. rachel: absolutely. pete: another report for you morning revealing that foreign developers from hostile countries like china, russia, iran and venezuela, they own at least 40 million acres of u.s. farmland. rachel: this includes land near american military bases in at least 37 statements, and that number -- states, and that number could be even higher. will: madeleine rivera joins us
5:10 am
live with the details. >> reporter: the number of u.s. farmland grew more than 8% in 2022. overall, it's still about 3% of the country's farmland, but there are growing concerns among government officials that this could affect national security. here's a map showing at least 37 states with farmland that is foreign-owned. per federal data, china owns 330,000 acres, roughly one-third the size of rhode island. it ranks lower in the list of foreign investors with qanta at the top, but there are bipartisan fears in congress that foreign adversaries could control the country's food supply or get u.s. assets. federal haw states foreign people or groups who buy or lease farmland in the u.s. must report these transactions to the united states' departmenlture. the problem according to the government accountability office is that the agency needs to do a better job of tracking and sharing key information.
5:11 am
officials, including those who are in the pentagon or the treasury department, they use that info when assessing national security risks like how close a foreign-owned farmland may be to a military base. in a quote the gao says without improving etc. internal processes, usda cannot report reliable information to congress or the public about where and how much agricultural land is held by foreign persons. the us da has requested funding so it can develop a realtime data system that can be accessed by government agencies and the public. guys? rachel: thank you, madeleine. pete: so let's improve the process so we know. can you imagine? how many acres do you think of chinese farmland are owned by americans? if i don't know, zero? rachel: zero probably. pete: a very small percentage. and if they are, they're watch watched e like a hawk by the chinese government, and here we don't know. and the proximity to the military bases is crazy too. rachel: it's a sign of the drop
5:12 am
in patriotism in our country because this land was sold under these, like, shell companies that americans are complicit in helping the chinese do this. the other part of the story is bill gates. as you guys know, there is a war on farming and on ranching in america just like there is in europe, and you see people like bill gates gobbling up farmland, people who are, you know, call at the wef this week, they called farming key of -- eco-side. [laughter] pete: is that for real? rachel: that is for real. these are people who are fundamentally opposed to the use of our farmland especially by small farmers, and there is a war on this. and the amount of -- i mean, i think bill gates is the number one person who owns the most amount of land in america, like, the individual with the most -- very troubling on that front as well. pete: i'd like to become an eco-cider. rachel: i want to too.
5:13 am
meanwhile, at the mar for life -- march for life which happened yesterday, this whole weekend we're celebrating the overturning of roe v. wade and the pro-life movement, mike johnson, who is the speaker of the house, was one of those members of congress who was at the march for life. and here's what he said to the crowd. look at that massive crowd. >> the beauty the of this event is that it's a beautiful picture of america. we have people from all walks of life, all ages, all experiences, all backgrounds. and we're all joining to celebrate life and what it means to be an american. i am, myself, a product of an unplanned pregnancy. in january of 1972, exactly one year before roe v. wade, my parents, who were just dangerous at the time, chose life. just teenagers apt the time, chose life. and i'm very profoundly grateful that they did. [cheers and applause] if see, what we have to do right now, and i believe the reason all of you are here is you understand that we have to build a culture that encourages and
5:14 am
assists more is and more people to make that same decision. rachel: i've been to that march many times. want you to look at that weather. by the way, this is the most underreported march. there are, you know, so many people there. it never gets reported enough. the weather is terrible, and i have been making this pitch to the people at the march for life for a long time, and i'm going to make it again very publicly, you know, on this show. they need to move the march for life away from the, you know, january, in january and move it down, move it the june where the weather is better, more people can come out. june 24th is the day that roe v. wade was overturned. let's celebrate that. i think it's easier to get more moms and babies out there. every year that weather is terrible -- pete: not during the school year too, to your point. rachel: one of the benefits of having it during the year is so many catholic schools will send their students out there, and i get that -- will: i do think it was poetic
5:15 am
there was kids playing snowball fights in the background. rachel: no, that was great. i've gone and i've had to basically go to my husband's office when he was in congress with the baby because it got so cold i couldn't actually do it. so i just think, i think it's time to really embrace the fact that at least on this front, we, you know, pro-lifers won. so now let's do it on the day that celebrate withs the overturning of roe v. wade and sending it back to the states. move it to june. it's a much better time to go to washington d.c. i think you'll get more people. all right. well, jim harbaugh, the michigan head coach, was also there. they're trying to catch me, you guys, because i always say the names wrong of all these sports figures -- will: no, now you're a sports expert. [laughter] rachel: did i say it right? because they were trying to say it was harbo, but i know it's
5:16 am
harbaugh. will: can't fool you with. [laughter] rachel: can't fool me now that i'm such an expert. here's what he had to say to the crowd. >> thank you all for being here. it's a great example that you're setting. it's testimonies from the sanctity of life. it's a great day for a march! [cheers and applause] it's a great day -- this is football weather! [cheers and applause] let's go! will: you know, it's weird to say, but brave -- pete: i know. i was just going to say it's wonderful to see -- will: yeah. pete: you have the coach of the national championship team at the right the life march. it does take guts, but we shoulo take -- will: it's weird to say it's brave to stand up -- pete: we should live in a country where you can have those opinions, and he does it well. and he lives his feint, and it's great to see. by the way, or mike johnson is in a, who we just showed,
5:17 am
speaker of the house, he's in a really tough spot right now on capitol hill. extending the budget and what's happening at the border and ukraine funding. we'll probably talk more about that at some point -- but he's been on our couch saying i will die on the hill of h.r. 2 and making sure we chose down that border. there's a showdown coming on that. rachel: he made it to the march for life. i believe congress was canceled because of the weather situation on friday, but he was there nonetheless. so that was wonderful. by the way, that's another reason why they should move if it. tough to get these members of congress, the calendar is not great for the march for life at that time. pete: noted. all right. let's turn to a few additional headlines starting with this, actor alec baldwin is once again facing an involuntary manslaughter charge for the deadly rust movie set shooting. a new mexico grand jury i -- issuing the indictment just months after the original a charges were droped. it's been more than two year
5:18 am
since the shooting where baldwin insists the gun fired itself. if convicted, he faces 18 months in prison. and authorities in new york city are reportedly adding cameras at illegal migrant shelters because of the spike in violence. they're also considering the use of met ifal detectors for these really peaceful legal/illegal migrant, immigrants. rachel dropped her pen. the push for more security comes after a illegal was stabbed in the neck when a huge fight broke out at a shelter thursday resulting in 18 arrests. a security guard telling "the new york post," quote, security is not good, it's not safe. we're trying to do do our, but we are outnumbered. now paper. [laughter] get it under control, duffy. will: what's going on over here? pete: spacex's axiom three separate crew -- astronaut crew docking at the international

space station this morning getting a warm welcome from the crew already living aboard the floating lab. that approval rival comes -- arrival comes 37 hours after they blasted off from florida. this is the third private mission to the iss, and those newcomers get to spend 14 days in orbit. and those are your headlines. rachel: do you know what i'm noticing as i see that image? your hair has so much body in space. did you notice that with their hair? the ladies in space? will: no. pete: do you think space does that -- will: zero gravity. rachel: oh, i think zero gravity's got to be great for your hair. will: coming up, congresswoman elise stefanik if hitting the trail for former president trump. could she be in the running for the veep stakes? rachel: we're going to ask her next. pete: pierce morgan, david rubin all joining one nation with brian kilmeade tonight, don't miss it, 9 p.m. eastern. ♪

pick. peter: here to react is the congresswoman herself, i least -- elise steph initiation live in new hampshire where she's still on the trail. congresswoman, thank you so much for being with us. let me start with that fastball. if the president, if donald trump were to ask you to be his vice president, would you say yes? >> well, pete, i've said for well over a year i'd be honored to serve in a future trump administration. but were focused today on making sure that we are showing strong sport for president trump. support. the energy and momentum is on his side. we had a great rally in concord last night. you can feel the energy, and he just is coming off a historic win in iowa. and, of course, my responsibility right now is i'm proud to be the representative for new york's 21st congressional district and the house republican congress chair, but of course i'd be honored to serve in the administration. will: congresswoman, have there been discussions between you and president trump about vice president? >> i'm not getting into any of my discussions with president
5:25 am
trump. i'm proud to call him a friend, and i'm proud to be the first member of congress to have endorsed his campaign. i also am proud to be the leader standing in the breach on issues like election integrity, standing up against the two sham impeachments and challenging these witch hunts with ethics complaints for these unethical, radical, far-left judges. rachel: yeah, you know, elise, i saw you recently on another network pushing back on this narrative of january 6th. you referred to those people in prison as hostages, as political dissidents. there have been some recent footage that has come out thanks to representative massey. you and mike johnson came on our show a few weeks ago, and he promised, speaker johnson promised to release all of the tapes. apparently not all of them have been released. what is the status of that? because -- and the only reason i bring it up is you're fighting for donald trump right now, and they're using january 6th, that whole narrative as a reason, as
5:26 am
an excuse legally to keep him off of ballots and really smear all of his voters. so your thoughts on that. >> well, it's an important question, rachel. i certainly am going to continue to support the speaker as he is releasing those tapes. the speaker said he is going to release all of the tapes. i know that we can trust him on his word on that. and transparency is very important here, rachel. because if you look back to 2020, we know that the treatment of blm, violent rioters is vastly different from the nonviolent protesters on january 6th. this shows the inequality in our justice system right now. and it's one of the reasons why there's so much growing support for donald trump, because they know the system is rigged and that this is the weaponization of the federal government against joe biden's top political opponent. it's not just president trump. it's conservatives, t catholics, it's parents. the american people know that
5:27 am
deep down. rachel: why is it taking so long? >> you know, that's -- for the, again, the speaker, i think, is engaged in those discussions with capitol police. but he said he's going to release the tapes, he's going to abide by that, and i fully support that. pete: congresswoman, help us out with what's going on on capitol hill because the house advanced a short-term funding extension to avoid a government shutdown. you voted against the measure, but the speaker has to craft these deals, and he's getting a lot of criticism for being a little too cozy with chuck schumer or, maybe going along. and there's talk of a possible compromise if where you would get some money for border security but also money for ukraine to deep the government -- to keep the government open. what's the right thing to do? where are we right now? >> well, i know that the speaker's top priority is securing the border. you know, i represent a border district, and in my northern border district i will tell you we've had a 55 a -- 550%
5:28 am
increase. it's part of the swanson sector which actually goes up to new hampshire as well, so these northern border state, we're facing a crisis as well as, of course, the 8 million that have crossed our southern border. the speaker's priority is border security, and the house republicans rally behind him in that priority as he engages in these discussions. the reality is the house republicans are going to stand up for border security on bethat half of the american people because we know that is the top concern among americans. not just republicans, but independents and democrat voters as well. will: congressman -- woman, you're in new hampshire, as we talked about. it's coming up on tuesday. most of the polling does show donald trump is up by double digits over nikki haley. what is the sense on the ground right now? i know you are supporting the trump campaign, but what ises the sense on the ground about the way that will turn out not just in it result, but the length of the potential lead if it turns out the way the polls
5:29 am
suggest? >> well, first of all, the president delivered a historic win in iowa winning by a larger margin than any other republican candidate in history. and the momentum is on his side. i will tell you, you know, i represent a cold district. it is bitter cold in new york, and people were waiting for hours in support of president trump last night at the rally. we have the endorsement from tim scott which is so important. you're seeing peoplal rally in support of president trump, and we need his strong leadership especially when we compare it to the weak leadership of joe biden. what we do not need is what we've seen from nikki haley who on the issue of election integrity has mimicked democrat talking points, has betrayed donald trump is voters. we do not need someone who has bowed to china, selling off agricultural land to communist china when she was governor of south carolina, and we do not need especially in the live free or die state someone who has voted to increase the gas tax, who did that as governor. president trump stands strongly
5:30 am
to lower taxes. these are important issues, and as voters are made aware of these records, you're seeing the momentum is in support of donald trump. and i'm so excited to rally with volunteers today for super saturday in manchester. rachel: you've been an incredible advocate for him and, again, defending him on many other networks in a very impressive fashion. elise stefanik, thanks for joining us. pete: thank you. will: thank you. >> thank you, rachel. thank, guysful. will: speaking of the presidential race, what is the path to victory for each candidate? if pete and i go off the wall to break it down.

5:35 am
offensive line. let's go off the wall breaking down each republican presidential candidate and their possible path to secure the nomination in 2024. so, yes, we are using a football analogy this morning because it's a big football saturday and sunday in the nfl. and with one contest down in iowa, it showed us a lot, will, but ultimately all these candidates have a different path. the overwhelm whenning front-runner at this point, donald trump. his strategy seems very straight forward. will: very straight forward, march down the field. run it right down their throat. momentum after the iowa win, march right through new hampshire where he's up right now double digits in polling and continue to gather up endorsements like he did last night with tim scott. pete: it's a good point. he's got an offense firing on all cylinder. he's got a ground game that work, but i ultimately he's got the reputation of a winner in the past, and he wants to wrap it up as soon as humanly possible. will: put this game away in the first quarter, have it wrapped
5:36 am
up in march. pete: kind of of like the packers did with the cowboys -- [laughter] have is it wrapped up the end of the first quarter, second quarter. you've seen the endorsements rolling in. vivek ramaswamy and now tim scott both endorsing him. he is the prohibitive, overwhelming front-runner at this point which means the other candidates have to have different offensive strategies. will: harder to find the pathway, but let's look through it. nick kiln haily -- nikki haley is banking a lot on new hampshire. $29 million in ad spending in that state. it's a state with a historically independent streak. she's hoping that independents -- independence means from the consensus of the republican party. pete: no doubt. that's a lot of money spent in a state the size of new hampshire. trump spent half that and desantis spent $8 million. new hampshire, historically more moderate. nikki haley definitely not of the america first mold, has been
5:37 am
hoping that a win in new hampshire might then catapult her into south carolina, her home state. got an early endorsement from governor sununu, a possible popular governor in new hampshire, but ron desantis also got an endorsement in iowa from the popular governor, kim reynolds, and it didn't catapult him. will: nikki haley down by about 17 points behind donald trump, 35-a 52. pete: i kind of liken this to a goal line stand for nikki haley. this is a goal line stand in new hampshire. she's got to either win it or be really tight and really close so it becomes a clear two-person contest to have a path going forward, especially considering where the polls are in south carolina. so better get the defense -- will: and quite, honestly, it's the hardest game plan or pathway to see, but that is the playing field for ron desantis. finish focused less on new hampshire, he's focused more on south carolina. to secure the win. and, pete, he has something on his resumé that historically
5:38 am
would play well. pete: that's right. south carolina as a huge vet and military population. it was a big firewall for john mcif cane when he was written off in his campaign -- john mccain -- he came back in 2008 to be the nominee largely through a resurgent victory in south carolina. i, it just with, if you think back to that time frame, i remember it was a lot more mixed on top. he had, he was able to eke out a second place win in iowa, but it still didn't feel like a win. and as a result, when you're getting beat bigtime in new hampshire, you've got everything on the line in the south carolina. will: and it's difficult because he's running against, you know, donald trump who just got an endorsement from tim scott, the senator from south carolina, and nikki haley, the former governor of south carolina. we should say the current polling, real real clear politics average for south carolina, is overwhelmingly trump, 52%. 21% haley, 11%, desantis. pete: it's hard to see a path there. it's almost a hail mary type strategy for ron desantis, but
5:39 am
where's it going? the because with, ultimately, we talk a lot about polls, but this is the all a delegate game. coming out of iowa, it was proif portional delegates. there were around 40 at stake, trump won 20, 9 and 8. same thing this new hampshire, you have the get over 10% to have any delegates at all. will: yeah. which at that current polling if it turns out the way the polling reflects would go heavily to trump and then a little bit to haley. but that's why south carolina becomes so important because it's a winner take all state. pete: absolutely right. and i believe it's february -- what's the date on south carolina? february 24th, i think. so interestingly enough, there is a nevada primary before the south carolina primary as well but doesn't come with as many delegates. will: right. pete: so this sends a lot of signals. and why are these early states, why does iowa, new hampshire and south carolina matter so much? sure there's history and legacy, but it's also money. if you don't come out on top or a close second, your donors stop writing checks.

>> welcome back. i'm live out on fox square where i can confirm it is, in fact, cold, but i can't complain if too much. here we're sitting in the single digits, i know there's folks out there walking their dogs, maybe on a run if you're a lunatic. let's see what it feels like across the country. 8 degrees, that's your wind chill in new york city. -8 in chicago. nashville, -8. it's 0 in atlanta, so this cold is really stretching across the country. that is why we see these wind chill alerts all the way down into central florida. it is that cold across the eastern half of the country, the central part of the country. frost and freeze alerts wrapping around the florida gulf coast, stretching over to the texas gulf coast, all of those areas looking at a hard freeze warning all the way through sunday morning. as we look at these temperature departures, a good 250-300 million folks are dealing with
5:45 am
temperatures below average here on saturday and sunday. that will change by monday and tuesday. those are your weather headlines. tossing back to you, pete. pete: thank you, adam. all right. my new fox nation special, poison i've city, takes a deep dive into the wokeness of ivy league schools. ivy league, eight historic institutions previously dedicated to upholding tradition and exceptionalism. but buried within the open lawns and gothic halls lies an unsettling truth. for generations we have entrusted these heat universities -- elite universities to forge our future. unfortunately, they succeeded. fox news contributor ben domenech is in that special. we sat down with him, and he joins us now. ben, i don't care about these schools in particular. the reason this matters is that a lot of the ideas and conversations we have today started in the faculty lounges or in -- of these heat
5:46 am
universities. -- elite universities. explain to the audience why we've got to care about what these universities are teaching. >> sure. one of the things we need to understand about this, pete, i think is even if your child isn't going to or your, you know, grandchild, you know, whatever isn't going to one of these elite ivy league institutions, the ideas that come out of these institutions 145eu7 everything that we see across academia. they are the load star for all of these different institutions. they look up to them, they aspire to the same level of prestige, and so they follow in their tracks when it comes to forming the different academic programs that they have. and unfortunately what we've seen over the past several decades is that the total leftist and marxist in many case takeover of these institutions has led to a complete overtaking of so many different aspects particularly in the humanities of the kind of academic experience that people have even if they're going to big state schools, even if they're not going to elite ivy league
5:47 am
institutions, their ideas that are being flowed down through that process is something that can really warp their understanding of the world and then follows them into the experience of public life, their life within corporate america. and as we've seen in recent years in particular, the way that people are treated by h.r. and by with the different companies that are trying over and over again to win plaudits from the left as opposed to serving their customers. pete: well said. even places like our military infected with ideas that a come from these places. >> absolutely. pete: the atact taxes of october 7th laid bare the fact that on these campuses cheering for a maas was common place -- hamas was common place. did it surprise you? because this film is meant to say, hey, this shouldn't really surprise us. >> well, it shouldn't surprise us only because i think, you know, if we've been paying attention, we can see the seeds of this. and there's some brilliant minds who you obviously talk to, victor davis hanson is one of
5:48 am
them. he's been warning about this for a very long time if you've been reading his work. others as well, shelby steele and the like who have been saying these ideas inevitably lead us to, you know, a view of the world through the lens are of victimhood and through the kind of dei rhetoric that we're with familiar with now within the corporate world. that's something that comes out of this experience. and it's not just -- it's a very convenient thing to say that, you know, these are college students, they go through periods of radicalism, we've seen it historically and then they get out into the real world and they have a mortgage and they start paying taxes and they change their minds about things. that's not what we're seeing happen. instead what we're seeing is that this radicalism is following them. it's seeded in their brains through these institutions, and then it's affecting the way we live our public lives in ways that trickle down and that are affecting every different aspect including, of course, teachers and public institutions today who are teaching young children who, you know, if you are paying attention to what they're saying, it's all things that are
5:49 am
seeded within this biased, leftist/marxist agenda that is abhorrent and has to be called out. pete: no doubt. ben domenech, thanks for your time and and articulating it so well. appreciate it. >> great to be with you, pete, and look forward to seeing you in new hampshire this week. pete: oh, yeah, you will. ben domenech does it all. we'll see you soon, brother. thank you. and check out poison ivy. we talk to donors, we talk to students, we talk to professors, we talk to board member, we talked to -- as ben mentioned -- victor davis hanson, brian brenberg, how do we get here, how do we get out of it? that's what poison ivy's meant to talk about. still ahead, it's the biggest cruise ship on the planet, and we're jumping aboard. a sneak peek of the icon of the seas, that's next. ♪ -- and i could be your favorite girl forever. ♪ perfectly together. ♪ tell me, boy, now wouldn't that be sweet?x in ♪
