5:05 am
back with must be that appeared to come from a chinese energy firm, cefc. he was asked, where do you believe the source of the money going into them prior to being sent to you coming from? cefc was the answer. he doesn't think cefc was tied to the chinese government and maintains the president had no information about the sources of the funds he used to repay the loans. he says "my brother has no idea what i do because i don't talk business to my brother, i don't ask him advice in terms of business because i just don't. it is a line, a red line drawn in the sand, i never discuss business with my brother". president biden is doubling down saying he didn't interact with his son hunter's business partners. listen. >> i don't read the record of every single witness. these guys got to stop this. >> but you did interact with their partners. >> i did not interact with their partners.
5:06 am
>> he testified his father was not involved in the business dealings and the speakerphone on the associates and dobbsing by on business lunches. >> it's very valuable trying to move forward and hold this family accountable and what we did was right and so many things we've been talking about in our investigation were proven in the deposition and the deposition was a huge success. >> impeachment investigators want a final report by spring, especially if the house wants to consider a vote before the election. will, rachel and pete. will: thank you. thank you. pete: thank you. will: fascinating testimony and there's a lot of denial and plausible didn't and loan payments made and jonathan turly points out when you boil it down, there was business with china and it was connected to chinese communist party and joe biden received money. watch. >> hunter biden confirmed the essential elements and they
5:07 am
received a great deal of money from rush cha, china -- russia, china, ukraine and 40,000 of chinese money made it into the account of president biden. he adds it's perfectly ethical and really something that left many of us dumbfounded and influence peddling can be done legally and no one argues it's done ethically. it is corrupt. the u.s. government has pushed treaty obligations to ban influence peddling because they've used it as one of the great forms of corruption and it has always been viewed as corruption. now, what we now know is that the president was involved and was confirmed by hunter biden. pete: this is one of the stories that's, i wouldn't say gone silly because it's not just silly, but it's so self-evident when you're willing to look at it that this is what the biden family did. joe biden was famous, had
5:08 am
political connections, had international connections as chair of senate foreign relations committee and brother and son peddled those and used those to make money for the family and felt entitled to finally cash in on the public service and they thought he was sunset years and time to make money and maybe he'll run and maybe he won't. in the process fast and loose and tracking them with the loan repayment and everybody knows what it is. rachel: of course. pete: the republicans are trying to prove it and i don't know if he was next to me, i was drunk or high. james biden can say it was a chinese girl but i don't know if it was linked to the government and i don't know. joe can say yeah, i met with business partners but not business. it was my son's friends. everyone knows it's a sham. saul they need to do is wait it out and push it out far enough to not affect them.
5:09 am
rachel: they're doing deals with china, who's an enemy of our nation. and they're doing energy deals. shutting down energy production in america, but then making money doing energy deals with our enemies. this is so insane and i'm sorry, this is treasonous. pete: you watched hannity and they tried to get a deal done with russia and they couldn't, they then went to ukraine. they were willing to work with anybody. it was open season. will: now starting to be backlash for members of the progressive squad caucus including jayapal, congresswoman jayapal and omar going to cuba and asking them to take them off the state sponsored terrorism list. here's congressman gimenez.
5:10 am
>> i'm offended and my parents brought me here when i was 6 years old for a reason to look for freedom and opportunity. and if those members think everything is really good in cuba or cool in cuba, why don't you ask the thousands and hundreds of thousands of cubans that risk their lives crossing the florida straits or now crossing through the southern border leaving that communist island. rachel: yeah, ilhan omar has never been known to be grateful for our country. pete: only grievances. rachel: you're absolutely right. she's actually in cuba defending the people, the regime and authoritarians that are oppressing the people and saw it in 2021. we saw that the first time they organize it had. the protest in 2021 in cuba was an afro-cuban artist uprising and started as this.
5:11 am
the whole family of activists joined the people of cuba joined and all they wanted was for joe biden just to provide internet because the authoritarians and communists cut off internet and no one could see the human rights abuses they were perpetrating on the cuban people. joe biden said no and ilhan omar and jayapal who say they were in cuba for human rights issues on the secret trip were the same people saying don't offer help to people screaming and fighting for freedom in the streets of havana. these are not good people. i'm sorry, these congresswomen are not good people and we out to not exactly what they were doing on their -- ought to know what they were doing on their secret trip. pete: walking streets of havana taking pulse of regular cubans to see if their human rights were violated recently. they sat in board rooms with leaders of cuba and heard propaganda of what a beautiful thing communism looks like and
5:12 am
want to pedal it back to us. how ilhan omar defended her trip to politico in a quote. reactions were hype hyperbolicd merit lest and challenged cuba on the concern wes have and might hinder the possibility of having a more productive relationship. i'm sure ilhan was throwing it down with the communists over there. rachel: sure she didn't go and visit some of the dis-dents that have disappeared never to be seen since those protests in the areas of the authoritarians and obama went to cuba and sat next to castro at a baseball game with his family. you hear so much talk about putin and all the stuff. there's -- the cas castros are o different. these are people that imprison any dis dis-dents and torture tr

5:14 am
entire time and i was like i got you. reporter: the fire chief said the rope system was attached to a crane-like structure on the bridge and military vet and hero fire fighter both handled the situation like champs. >> it was obvious she was shaken up and scared and fire fighter carden did an amazing job of keeping her calm and held it together like a champ and i'll say the second she hit solid ground and was able to let the emotions go and have that relief and pretty impressive thing. reporter: the truck driver sent to the hospital and seemed to be doing okay and two other truck drivers involved in the crash sent to the hospital with life-threatening injuries. without life-threatening injuries. rachel: do we know how that happened in pete: we don't know and looks like the back part of the chasesy and payload. looks like because it caught the top of the bridge. that's the only thing that kept it going down. when you're hanging that way --
5:15 am
rachel: that's got to be so scary. pete: doing the will cain likelihood assessment and thinking i've got a 5% chance of living here as you're sitting -- will: how high is it? pete: sorry, you're falling -- i guess you could consider jumping out. will: i would but how high is that? in kentucky? kentucky? pete: very least the ice bath and it's cold. will: amazing men that executed the rescue. rachel: hear if for the boys that executed the rescue. pete: more complicate that had than, will. a little bit. turning to headlines starting with a fox news alert. belize flag uk-owned, figure that one out, cargo ship sunk to the bottom of the sea after it was abandoned nearly two weeks ago when houthi terrorists

5:25 am
bruce blakeman sign that had order he joins us now. bruce, what are you going to do? with that legal anal cyst she offered you, it's trans-phobic and therefore illegal. how do you face that? >> first of all, i'm not trans-phobic and allow france gender athletes to compete against males and compete in coed leagues and i'm not trans-phobic. we're a welcoming county and welcome all lifestyles to nassau and i felt i had an obligation to make sure that women were not bullied in sports here in nassau county and this is the time of year when we give out all of our use permits and licenses and teams and leagues to use ball fields and facilities this summer and we wanted to make sure women were protected and biological males are faster, stronger, larger than women and
5:26 am
they should be competing with men or on coed teams and not competing against girls and women and it's a fairness issue and it's a safety and common sense issue. will: are you prepared for the fight and inevidentability this will happen and attorney general taking on your executive order look at her history, she has -- she was elected on the props to be blatantly political and she was fulfilling her obligation to be blatantly political and in cases including cases out of colorado when it comes to bakers baking cakes on which messages they disagree and beef producer in new york on commitment to net zero and we all know that she's gone after donald trump those are political promises and she's fulfilling those propses and you'd have to be certain she's
5:27 am
going to come after your ordainer nassau county. >> well, right noisome not rescinding the order. we are reviewing her cease and desist order, and i have a retired appellate division judge as my attorney, tom adams, and he believes that not only am i allowed to issue the executive order but i have an obligation to protect the women. we've got young girls that train and work really hard and to have a male come in and compete against them is blatantly unfair, and it's unsafe. i've heard from mops and dads and girls and a lesbian woman that's a life-long democrat and said thank god someone is standing up because we as women have rights. they're a protected class under the constitution and i believe i have an obligation to stop the bullying. this is nothing more than bullying and we'll have a formal written response for the attorney general and has to go to court, we'll abide by the
5:28 am
decision of the courts but we're very comfortable that my order is not only constitutional, but it's the correct thing to do. will: what do you think is motivating letitia james? >> well, i don't understand this. i mean, she's the attorney general, she should be protecting the women and girls, they're a protected class. for the last few decades, women have made tremendous strides in fairness and sports they've worked hard and to take it all away because some biological male identifies as a transgender female and can come in and steal their prize and award, steal their competition or put them in a situation where they're competing against very, very large biological males who as we saw on a basketball court with little girls were tossing little girls around, hurting them and we don't want biological males in the locker rooms of girls. there's a lot of reasons and it's just common sense.
5:29 am
will: bruce blakeman, good luck on the coming fight. >> thank you. will: recent poll shows women are happier when married with kids. our next guest wrote the book get married and he's making the case for marital bliss, next. ♪ liberty mutual customized my car insurance and i saved hundreds. that's great. i know, i've bee telling everyone. baby: liberty. oh! baby: liberty. how many people did you tell? only pay for what you need. jingle: ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ baby: ♪ liberty. ♪

rachel: a snowstorm is sweeping across the mountains in northern california. the sierra nevadas expected to get over 10 feet of snow with winds reaching up to 145 miles per hour. authorities are closing 100 miles on the interstate as white
5:34 am
out conditions make it difficult to drive. see resorts in lake tahoe are closing slopes due to the blizzard. turn now to chief meteorologist rick reichmuth for the fox weather forecast and, rick, there's never a dull day. i mean, this is crazy. rick: yeah, so much snow and can't get to it or use it and it's a bummer. wind gusts 190 miles an hour here across palisades tahoe. really high elevation and getting the strongest wind and massive storm here that's dumping incredible amounts of snow in the sierra nevada and this is ultimately good news, we need snow pack and it's what refills those reservoirs and helps with the on going drought in parts of california in the last number of decades. a lot more rain and snow to come. this is at least through tomorrow and some spots maybe another 4-5 feet by the time this is done and there's another storm looks like coming next week that's going to be maybe as strong. a lot of wind and snow and
5:35 am
summer is warm across the plains and temps in the mid to upper 80s in some cases across texas and fires across the panhandle today and very significant fire threat again across parts of west texas. i want to quickly show you what march is looking like. looks like we'll see below average temperatures in the southwest and much of the eastern part of the country and great lakes remaining very warm for the month of march. over to you, pete. pete: a georgia judge will decide in the next two week ifs full ton county district attorney fani willis should be disqualified from the trump election case. will: let's goth the wall. closing arguments if fani willis should be removed from the case of donald trump and removed in two weeks and elected in 2021
5:36 am
and ran against the case and may have won in 2021 and been in that office since 2001. pete: yanising reputation and prosecutor and everyone in the courtroom and all the lawyers and judge and everyone knows fani willis and and he said she said. will: how did she garner the reputation as a good prosecutor and she launched an investigation into donald trump almost immediately after the e election, after her election. pete: the transcript of donald trump saying hey to the secretary of state in georgia and i'm going to find the votes and she said we're going to go after this guy. that was her smoke screens.
5:37 am
will: the hearing takes place and whether or not she had an improper relationship over the special prosecutor for donald trump. pete: she starts this prosecution and a lot of money pours in and she put together a rendition of anthony koenen case and it's a novel legal theory going after donald trump and 18 other associates and if you do that, you need a lot of good lawyers and hired two lawyers very experienced in the area and had done a lot of cases similar and this guy nathan wade who at the time saying that looks interesting and he hasn't done any cases like that and doesn't have a lot of experience and getting paid a ton of money so i don't know how many people recognize that at the beginning but as things started trickling out, that's when the problem started. will: allegations is they had an improper relationship and romantic and intimate relationship and big point of the trial is when did that relationship start? now issue the reason why that's important is she appointed
5:38 am
somebody she's already having a relationship with and financial benefits for them taking trips together he paid for and this thing was fruit of the poison tree from the beginning. pete: that's right. nobody cares whether those two have a relationship and that's not the issue. there's salacious stuff that comes up. who cares. the only thing that matters is the time line. here's when he was hired when the case was started in november and what the trump team is trying to show, what you watched all week in the trial is the relationship happened months if not years sooner meaning when he was hired and by the way, he filed for divorce after that and trying to keep the time line tidy. will: a day! pete: they've been trying to keep the time line tidy for awhile on all this. but evidence shows a lot of cell phone evidence shows that your phone doesn't just arrive and stay at someone else's condo for five hours in the middle of the
5:39 am
night. will: they're saying they got involved with each other after she appointed nathan wade. pete: i don't know how they're trying to get past all the digital evidence. evidence of techs and will: if you hired him improperly, that's the space. what's gone down in the case. it's been entertaining first of all. here's fani willis, here's fani willis. >> i don't have checks. cash is fungible. i hid cash for years in my house. i don't have as much today as i would normally have but i'm building back up now. you put money and it's a very good practice and advice it to
5:40 am
all women. will: the cash comes from somewhere. them said it's from her hard work but it comes from somewhere. pete: you're not allowed to use campaign cash fungiblely in your on house for expenses. will: how do you have checks. they're going the way of the dodo bird but not yet checks. pete: a new fact she brought a new fashion statement back which is zipper in the front amasses people pointed out. another clip of her testifying. >> you're confused and think i'm on trial. these people are on trial for trying to steal an election in 2020. i'm not on trial no matter how hard you try to put me on trial. which one you lied in right here. i think you lied right here. no, no, no, this is the truth.
5:41 am
this is a lie. will: so quite a performance and terrence bradley he's nathan wade's attorney and he's been climbing attorney client privilege the whole trial pete: correct. but the judge reviewed new information and forced to go back and testify again because some of what those communications were considered not privileged anymore. man, did this guy not want to be on stand and he tried not to give any information about his client. listen. >> did you lie to ms. merchant when you told her facts about mr. wade and ms. willis' relationship? >> not that i recall. i don't recall that i've testified to what i did know so i can't recall -- pete: it was a lawyer -- it was the best lawyerly attempt you could say of him saying i have no idea. even from that you could tell the straining of the realization of, hey, it's pretty tough to
5:42 am
deny something started beforehand. will: this will all end where we began with off the wall and the judge saying he'll rule on this in two weeks. he could potentially remove nathan wade, fani willis and nathan wade, pete and remove the entire prosecutor's office because they've thrown them way behind fani willis and i'll say this, he could dismiss the indictment. if it is held that nathan wade was hired improperly, not through the process required by fulton county. pete: so much of the case is predicated on the case being made and fani willis built the architecture around, if she goes, the whole thing could go and that's why this whole thing matter sos much. there's a lot of pressure on the judge by the way. these things are very political and whether he do it on the merits or have to lookout for his future too? we'll see. will: all right. happy wife, happy life. recent poll shows women are happier when married with kids. the case for holy matrimony,

5:47 am
now. brad, thanks for being here. tell us why you believe that to be the case. why are married folks, married women more specifically more happy in the study? >> well, we're getting a lot of messages from the mainstream media telling us marriage is a path to misery and no group is less lonely, financially secure and less happier than unmarried women and no group is happier than married moms today and that's the truth and getting message to the broader public. rachel: why aren't people getting married? are we just not getting that message out or talking enough about the joys and benefits of marriage and people are decidine deciding not to get married or are there other factors involved? >> so, i think there's a couple of reasons. one is, yeah, i think the media, education, higher education are often not really paint ago very good portrait of marriage. i think two, there are plenty of
5:48 am
folks that grew up in difficult or broken families and they're kind of hesitant to go and get married. these are some of the factors but one other big factor that's in play here is the rise of smart phones and distract us from endangers in the real world and dating and getting marry too. pete: people check out the book and it's called get married and makes the case. rachel has one here and congratulations by the way. what's one thing that surprises them? >> i think one thing that surprises them basically is that we have this message out there oftentimes that religious couples are floundering in the media but we find that in the book there's no group of americans that are more happily married or stably americaned than religious americans and coming to biggest problems in the country we find the number one factor when it comes to happiness in america is a good marriage and also the most important factor that explains why happiness is failing in america is fewer and fewer
5:49 am
