feels like the dawn of warm weather. a lot of people across the country beginning to take spring break. still cold in northeast, but beginning to resemble that song and that image right there. starting your image on saturday is. rachel: makes me want to go on vacation. pete: it's not quite warm enough everywhere except maybe sunny isle, florida. there's a guy on the tractor, see him? that means there's going to be a lot of people on that beach today. that's an important job. rachel: i wish it was me. pete: i wish it was all of us. rachel: oh, boy. pete: it's true. i did find or, speaking of water, good news on the hegseth compound, the pond that we had that we cleared out, i didn't think there was any fish in it or that fish could live in it, i didn't know the water quality. went down there, hundreds of largemouth bass. will: boom. what a gift. pete: yeah. it was warm enough that they had come up, i looked out and there were schools of them.

will: you could see them? if. pete: i could see them. will: your water's getting clear. pete: yeah. i'm excited. will: you went in, you cleared it out -- pete: no, no, i cleared the shoreline. what do you mean, i paid a guy -- [laughter] he helped me -- will: and now you've got some sunlight -- pete: yeah. i waded in, pulled some tours -- will: how deep is this thing? if. pete: in the middle i had a kayak with a padding, longer e than the paddle, so at least 10, 12 feet in the middle. so i'm hoping for system big large mouth. there has to be a mama largemouth bass that spawned all of these -- will: probably long passed. [laughter] pete: i don't know how the -- will: it's not a queen bee situation. pete: they give birth though. will: well, yeah, like adam and eve, but some time has gone on -- pete: i'm telling you, i've before been down there many times, i've never seen a fish. will: did you ever cast a line before this?

pete: no. will: well, you would have had your answer -- pete: i bought some minnows, i brought them over and the next day, boom, they were alive. rachel: the kids. pete: they're excited. rachel: all right. of meanwhile, we've been talking about joe biden's state of the union address k. and one of the most memorable moments was when marjorie taylor greene asked joe biden to say laken riley's name, but he got it wrong. take a listen. >> not if really -- >> [inaudible] >> i -- [inaudible conversations] lincoln, lincoln riley, an innocent young become who was killed by an illegal. that's right. but how many thousands of people are being killed by illegals? to her parents, i say my heart

goes out to you having lost children myself. i understand. will: so many -- actually, so much in one small clip. rachel: yeah. there's a lot going on in there. he's holding up the pin, so he has the name on it. pete: he got it from her e in the aisle. will: from marjorie taylor greene -- rachel: but he still said lincoln. will: the rest of the world understands, he actually said the name of a real person who's kind of famous. he's the head coach of the usk football trojans, was oklahoma head coach. he's one of the best college football coaches in the country, his name's lincoln riley -- rachel: that's funny. i never thought about that. [laughter] will: i don't want to make light of this, everyone in the sports world was like, wow, lincoln riley died last night. because president biden used the wrong name after being asked to say her name, and it wasn't funny to allison phillips, laken riley's mother who posted on facebook: biden does not even know my child's name.

of it's pa if nettic. if you're going to say her name, at least say the right name. pete: absolutely. but what's amazing, it struck me in the moment too what the takeaway would be from this. i immediately recognized that he proif announced it incorrectly, which he shouldn't have, which means he doesn't really know, which means he was compelled to when he said it. they were clearly prepared for maybe an exchange like this, otherwise i don't think he would have done that. but it stuck out to me right away when he said the word illegal. i thought, oh, the left's going to hate that, because you're not supposed to say that word anymore. when he said lincoln riley was killed by, you know, brutally by ina an illegal, i thought, oh, here we go. and sure enough, what did the democrats take away from it? not that he mispronounced the name, democrats were mad about the use of the word illegal are. watch. >> did you think that he should have said undocumented? >> well, we usually say undocumented. >> he should have used the word undocumented. i don't believe that the president's heart is with the

word illegal. i think, frankly, i think he shouldn't have responded to a very disrespectful republican member who was shouting at him. the president of the united states. that is not appropriate. pete: that's just two, but there were a lot more. rachel: sure. they're mad that -- they've set up a system of euphemisms that, you know, he was not supposed to break that rule. and i think because he's sometimes not always with it, hs with people that are, like, on the edge cognitively. they tell the truth. pete: or they accelerate to what they're familiar with. rachel: right. will: the euphemisms have gone from illegal alien to illegal immigrant, to migrant, illegal was in there too. illegal, and to what are we doing now? we're doing my grant. pete: migrant. will: to newcomer -- pete: undocumented, then -- will: undocumented. and the well thing's designed

to, the euphemism usage is designed to shade you from reality. like so that you never fully understand reality. rachel: right. powerful, actually. will: and you can change reality. pete: it's to manipulate reality, yes. what you thought was bad is actually good. they're not illegal, or they're a newcomer. will: right. rachel: or undocumented. they're undocumented. so here, joe biden was asked about if he regretted using the term illegal, and he was at a joint base andrews, and here's what he said. >> reporter: do you regret using the word illegal to describe immigrants last night, sir? >> well, i probably -- i don't -- technically, he's not supposed to be here. [laughter] pete: i mean, he's right. i mean, but that's the whole sham, that's the sham of the entire thing, that all these folks that have come here illegally, which we say because they've done it illegally, are technically here under the guise

with of being here legally because they've made a asylum claim which even though it's bogus, we're phosphorsed to recognize because of the system that guy's set up. now they're in the country for years on end. but he still knows in the back of his mind the system's a sham. technically, yeah, they're here illegally. will: it's just -- rachel: yeah. anyone who uses the term illegal or anyone, in fact, who says anything against the system that you talk about that's so corrupt, that's so wrong, that's bringing so much chaos with, that's causing death like what happened to laken riley but also just all the chaos at the border, i mean, you guys saw the border story i did with the rancher in, you know, seeing 3,000 men in military uniform formations running through his property near the border. i mean, if you say anything about that, they'll say you're a racist. elon musk is a legal immigrant, and and often you'll find that it is the legal immigrants who

are the most outraged by this, you know, vilifying of anyone who raises concerns about this. he posted this on thursday. he says because i am raising concerns about the flood of unvetted illegal immigrants overwhelming american cities, the press will often characterize me as anti-immigrant. as an immigrant myself, nothing could be further from the truth. i i am very much in favor of increased and expedited legal immigration for anyone who is talented, hard working and and honest. it is bizarrely difficult and agonizingly slow to immigrate to the u.s. legally. but it's trivial and fast to enter illegally. this, obviously, makes no sense. and it's also not fair. will: it's just absurd to say that we're with talking about someone killed by an illegal. pete: yes. will: all right. let's move to this, tiktok. a house committee has voted unanimously the ban tiktok, to force the divest isment of tiktok -- divestment of tiktok

from its chinese parent company, bytedance. this has been a fascinating exercise in that many, many, many tiktok users have needed congress with calls before this goes to a vote on the house with various threats. and i wanted to pull this name up because i find this fascinating as well, this republican billionaire if -- i don't have his name in front of me unless if i can pull it up quickly, has $33 billion -- rachel: yes, i have his name -- will: -- invested in tiktok. pete: okay. will: and there are reports, which he denies, of him calling republican congressmen saying if you vote for this, this money's all dried up for you. rachel: correct. pete: of course. will: called jeff yas, i believe. rachel: that's correct. will: invested in tiktok and making threats -- pete: used to getting politicians to do what he wants. he's got a lot of money. and in this case, maybe they won't. will: he denies the allegations, that's according to "the new york post." meanwhile, president trump is saying -- first, we'll go to president biden saying he sign

the bill if it comes out of congress. >> reporter: do you still support if banning tiktok? would you sign that bill? >> if they pass it, i'll sign it. pete: he does, he did -- you barely caught it, if they pass it, i'll sign it. it was interesting that president trump came out with a different view -- rachel: yeah. pete: -- and said, well, if you get rid of tiktok, then you're just empowering even more of zuckerberg and the facebook crowd -- rachel: ray agreed. pete: i don't know, i'm kind of in between. let's do both, definitely not allow facebook -- i don't know. tiktok is just so poise if now for young kids that i would support -- poisonous. rachel: so what you're talking about, the addictive part of it, i agree. but tiktok is not the only addictive part of it. so you have to separate, and this is what i think, i think vivek ramaswamy and his role in both the primary and i think in advising trump's team a little

bit on tech issues because he's very good at it. you're going to play a clip, but i think what vivek's saying is separating the addictive concerns we have about tiktok and then the national security/china side of it. and this bill, he says, doesn't do a good job of dealing with either. so take a listen to what he had to say. >> if the real concern we have -- and i think it is a real concern we ought to have -- is the provision of u.s. consumer and user data to the chinese communist party, that's what we should be legislating against. of ban u.s. companies from providing u.s. user data to china. i think it's a sensible measure regardless of the company. but it is the beyond silly to just pick one random company and go after them because that is temporarily a politically popular thing to do while actually failing to solve the actual problem that applies to chinese companies and and u.s. companies alike including u.s. companies that do business in china. rachel: so his point tiktok is not the only company providing

data, social media company providing data to the chinese. there are other companies that are doing that. in fact, he said behind closed doors, for example, airbnb was caught saying -- and, by the way, you can go on tiktok and listen to his full explanation it's very good. but he said airbnb was saying we're not here to advance the interests of america. we're a business. and so he said there's lots of companies that are doing things with china because they want access to that market that aren't necessarily good for our national security and especially when it comes to data. pete: i don't know how i feel about it. so he's saying because we can't do everything, we can't -- we shouldn't do anything? like, okay, we're not going to get rid of every chinese company. that's the problem. they've made their entire economy on theft of american intellectual property and data. but if we see one particular thing like tiktok which is an imminent threat to a generation of our kids, shut it down. what are we doing? will: it's hard not to ugh e near if it. tiktok's very popular --

president wt wt -- pete: vivek just argued it's politically popular, i would argue a it's the other way around. will: i agree. pete: if you do it, it takes some guts to do it. am i wrong? will: yeah. that's what i'm saying, i'm with you. rachel: i have young people, i have young children who post -- my adult daughter, for example, posts on instagram and tiktok, and and she will say to you that she's more likely to get her video that she posts, a conservative video, more likely to get censored on instagram than on tiktok. pete: well, we definitely have our own problems in-house. but let's fight our problems in-house and not let the chinese decide for us. rachel: yeah. i think it's really nuanced. i'd love to get vivek on to unpack that a little bit more. all right, let's turn to your headlines starting with a fox news alert. three people are now dead and one person is hurt after a national guard helicopter crashed in texas near our southern border yesterday.

two national guard soldiers and one border patrol agent were killed according to military officials. a third soldier onboard the helicopter is in critical condition. officials are investigating what caused that crash. and according to the border patrol sources, cartel members filmed the helicopter going down with their drone and can be heard laughing about it on a video that they posted on social media. embattled fulton county, georgia, d.a. fani willis will be defending her seat against two primary challengers or in may. gop lawyer courtney kramer who worked under former president trump and democrat christian wise who challenged willis four years ago are both looking to win the street. the -- seat. the top two winners regardless of party will face a runoff in november. a judge is expected to make a decision in willis' misconduct case in the coming weeks. and one of the workers who helped provide free samples at costco, you know those free

samples? is asking customers to behave. she says shoppers cut lines for free samples, they block aisles, and they are rude. when she's all out of food. the worker posted these suggestions on reddit telling customers to only touch your sample, don't cut lines and, please, respect the workers. pete: who's arguing that the workers -- with the workers in the free sample line? rachel: apparently, bad people. pete: it is true. if one's really good can, i might circle back and come back. rachel: you're who she's talking about. pete: but i'm nice about it. and if there's a line, i'm not going to cut. rachel: fair enough. will: i got nothing on that. i don't go there -- pete: so is i was, yesterday i didn't get a chance to watch you on the show. i know you were on "fox & friends." i was driving, but i heard your last segment on the show on the radio with. will: how was that? pete: different experience than hearing will cain on a horse than watching will cain on a horse. how was it?

pete: yesterday i got to ride performance horses, cutting horses. so this is a ferrari, i'm on. and i've been on a lot of horses in my life. i know how to ride a horse. i'm not telling you i'm a cowboy. i know how to ride a horse. i've gotten to ride in an f-16 with fighter pilots, i have stood on the sidelines of texas/ou, i have swam in the hudson river with navy seals, this is up there for me, to be honest. that horse, which is just standing right now, so they picked some good video, that horse can do anything. slight tuck of -- tug of the rein, back up. that cowboy, chris dawson, really knows what he's doing. like, it's designed to cut a steer out of a herald, a calf out of a herd, separate him, corner him. it'll do anything. and he played the role of a cow. this is -- and he's, like, telling me speed up, i want you to cut my head off a, i don't know what they got on video, but it's just incredible, what this horse will do on the slightest command.

and it was just so cool. and, by the way, so i did the will cain live there on thursday, and i got to hang out with one of the -- i mean, this guy's cool. he's one of the most famous, maybe best bull rider of all time, j.b. moonny, and there's nothing fake about j.b.. i mean, he smokes mall borrows before and after the ride, before and after the interview. i'm surprised the producer chose this part of our conversation, but here is what they did on the will cain show. you and i walk into a bar, you know, we're single, we're young. on a scale of, like, 10's a rock star and 1's a librarian, where is the bull rider? >> hmm. damn. 10. rock star. will: 10? >> when i was younger -- i've lived life to the fullest. i took every advantage because with riding bulls for a living, you're not guaranteed the next day. so i took advantage of that day every time. [laughter] will: i think it also matters where the bull is, right?

if. >> also, yes, it does. but we had a good time the everywhere we went. [laughter] rachel: what? will: took advantage every day. i didn't pick the clip. i don't know why "fox & friends" -- rachel: but you asked the question, will. will: i wanted to know what -- pete: why is librarian a 1? will: you think librarians are walking into bars -- you know that kenny chesney song, i was a senator's son is, i was a rock star? if he talks about when we were young, we'd go into bars and -- pete: oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. will: you know? so, you know, you've got to know, college football star, you know, my dad's a senator. faking all these things. i'm a bull rider. i want to know, like, where does that rank. and, clearly, it ranks very high. pete: most people don't know bull riders too, so that's -- will: that's right. pete: it's like being the drummer or of a band. somebody that's not recognizable. will: yeah. i wondered if you were taking

a -- pete: you've been the drummer? will: yeah. pete: you were the drummer in a band? rachel: no if, he lied -- [laughter] pete: he even got me. that's how effective it is. just like that, bam. will: all right. a warning sign of blood thirsty venezuelan gang members coming across our southern border. pete: and snakehead gangs reportedly smuggling chinese nationals into the u.s. what it all means for our national security, that's coming up next.

border: tell us what's happening and why we should be concerned. that increase in number is astounding. >> well, good morning, rachel. first of all, i think that number, what that number represents is a convergence that's happening on our southern border between international, transnational criminal organizations, international terrorist organizations and the facilitator, the middlemen that run the logistics the make all that move especially as it moves to the southern border. the second point, rachel, on that is that, you know, there's a lot of discussion particularly in washington about separating the chinese criminal apparatus that's involved in fentanyl, that's involved in human smuggling from the chinese government. that's certainly what the ccp wants to have as a talking point, but you can't separate that. it's not like china and new zealand and these criminals are coming from europe. when you talk about criminals coming from china, they absolutely are linked to the ccp for one specific reason, because of the banking system. they all use the chinese state-controlled in many case

state-owned banking system to be able to move the illicit money and funds from their illicit activities. so i think this is, it follows within the doctrine of what china calls unrestricted war fare which they include are criminal organizations as part of that warfare to attack the united states. rachel: yeah. by the way, i had joseph on my podcast this past week. it's one of the most enlightening conversations i've ever had on a cast. encourage everyone to watch it. and that was one of the most interesting parts. you said in the past, or you know, people would launder money through latin american banks, and now in latin america, the cartels are laundering their money through chinese banks, something i had not thought about. and this can connection is very important to make. so what do you think this, the chinese are doing in america? what your greatest fear? i mean, you know -- was your greatest fear? you know everything about national security and security in latin america and what's coming new our border. what wore write -- worries you the most? >> it isn't necessarily the criminals and terrorists, and

that is very concerning and alarming. i think our national security apparatus needs to do something about that. what really keeps me up at night is the professional, military sub verse isive actors that are probably coming across our southern border and not just from china, but iran, russia, cuba, venezuela. from any enemy of the united states that wants to do us harm because these are actors that not if only can carry out operations, but they can actually poison your food and and water supply, learn how to shut down your electrical grid, radicalize and empower communities, basically people like antifa, put those on steroids. these are folks that go into other countries and create chaos. china, russia and iran has these subversive actors, and it only takes a handful the create a lot of damage. rachel: yeah. i don't understand why our government is not as concerned. i want to talk about this, because there are venezuelan gangs, they've set up shop at

our u.s. border. they're coming across the border. i spoke with congressman troy nehls, and he told me that several years ago he got intel from border patrol that our intel agencies knew that nicolas maduro was emptying the prisons. he sent a letter asking hem to verify that, and they never responded. you know latin america so well. do you believe that he emptied his prisons and that those are some of the people that are coming through? >> no, absolutely. that's not, that's not any if news for anyone that's been following venezuela for the last several years. there's a few things that i think the audience really needs to understand. the first, it's the fastest growing transnational criminal organization in the world. only six years ago, they only had a presence in south america, venezuela and colombia. fast forward sick years, and and they're now present in at least ten countries including the united states. i've never seen a criminal

organization grow that fast, not even the mexican cartels expanded that fast. the second point to that is they've already destroyed south america. they've attacked and killed police officers, they've set up sex trafficking, human trafficking, prostitution rings. they've basically taken over venezuelan communities in peru, ecuador, chile, so they've the pretty much if destroyeded south america. and in 2021 they started to move north. why? because the venezuelan government, the regime of nicholas pa door row, created a transportation mechanism. he created the logistics to start pushing knot. a national airlines would fly more flights to mexico than any other place in the world shuttling these migrants. two, they started to create the financing mechanism for many of the ngos along the darien gap which was once an uncrossable border, and it's now pretty much a bridge where these venezuelan migrants are passing through. and the last point, rachel, in 2011 the venezuelan government stood up the. ministry of prisons, right in

and in the ministry of prisons, it essentially handed over the prisons to the prisoners. they created something which existed before in 2007, and it was, like, the warden to after -- of a prison, but it would be a prisoner. it would be a prison gang leader that would be in charge of the order of that prison. so they created that system, and then they used that system to weaponize it and, as you said, empty out the prisons and send them all throughout the americas and more recently to the united states. rachel: well, if you want more on this conversation, and it's very deep, go to my podcast, from the kitchen table, with joseph m -- humire. we talk about why latin america is in the our neighborhood and it affects us directly. by the way, china operating in cop junction with venezuela. so a great episode. thank you so much for joining us again, joseph. always so enlightening. >> absolutely, or rachel. thanks for having me. >> you got it. rachel: two is a party, no labels promising to put forward

joe manchin the nikki haley have said they're not interested in running, the latest being kyrsten sinema from arizona. some difficulty in finding a candidate. if enter i'm to not sure i would characterize it as that, will. you know, we've said from the beginning what our time frame is, that we would wait until super tuesday when we would know who these presumptive nominees are and then make a decision as to whether or not to move forward, and that's what we did yesterday when 80 delegates gathered -- 800 delegates gathered representing every single state in if our country, and they decided nearly in a unanimous fashion to move forward. and and so the next step would be the selection process. but, you know, as it relates to your comment, you know, all these names that are being floated out9 there are being floated by other people. we're going to be releasing our selection process next thursday, and then after that hopefully in the next few weeks we'll have some names of people identified. will: so fair, joe, that those

names are being offered up by other people. but also to be fair, you and i had a conversation right ear on "fox & friends" where you told me you'd be happy, you guys would be welch coming of nikki haley should she -- welcoming. so you're telling me the next couple weeks for a date is the -- for a candidate is the goal, to identify and nominate a candidate for no a labels in the next couple of weeks? >> yeah. our time frames haven't we'red. we said -- haven't wavered. we said we'd wait until after super tuesday, sometime mid, late march, maybe early april, sometime in that window hopefully is have candidates identified and move forward. i'll. will: so you also, by the way, said candidates plural. i want to ask you about this line from the "wall street journal" reporting on you guys. it says in the meeting where you guys voted to move forward, i've lost it, tapping two candidates, likely a republican and a democrat to offer alternative options in november. is that what you -- are you guys looking at offering up two

candidates, or are you talking about a combined ticket here? what will be the final offering of no labels? >> the goal has always been a bipartisan ticket, republican-democrat, democrat-republican or an independent, you know in again, that's the selection process that will be unveiled sometime next week, next thursday, actually. so that'll come into more focus for the general public. however, yeah, i mean, that's always a been our goal, is to give americans another choice. will: but i'm just clarifying,head be the top of the ticket and and a vice presidential candidate, is what that means, right? when you say two candidates. >> correct, yeah, yeah. will: okay. and last question about jeff duncan as a potential nominee, would you say, joe, right now the focus would be inside of no labels, is the focus more on a republican, or is it on a democrat? if what is the focus of no labels? as you search for a candidate? >> i mean, this selectioninging

process gets unveiled next week, i think it's going to become clear that our north star is putting up a ticket that can win. if so whatever gives us the best chance at success. you know? and again, i think -- i'm not trying to be coy with you, but with i think there's going to be a lot more clarity brought into that next week when this is unveiled on how we're pointing to move forward. you've got to remember it was just less than 24 hours ago that our 800 delegates gave us the green light and said, yes, we want to proceed. so i know folks are excited to learn about potential candidates and candidates, the selection process, but, will, we're doing in a methodical way on our own timeline, and it's important that we get this right. that's what's most important, not to do this many in a haphazard way. it's important to put the best candidate forward. will: all right. joe cunningham of no labels, thanks for being with us this morning. >> thanks, will. will: another victory for school

pete: another big victory for school choice, this time in alabama. governor kay ivy is set to sign a bill that allocates up to $7,000 for families to pay for private school if they choose to enroll and allocates up to $100 million each year to an educational savings account. it's all a set to roll, roll out in the 2025 school jeer. here -- school year. here to react, american fed if ration for children corey deangelis -- >> right here. pete: right here in person. >> yeah, it's good to see you, pete. this makes alabama the 11th state to go all in on school choice in the past 3 years aend loan. now 1 in 5 states have is universal school choice. everybody's eligible -- pete: so this almost feels like a gold standard situation here. any alabama family, urban, rural, whatever, poor, rich, if you want to take $7,000 and apply it to a different school, the money follows the kid. >> right@the gold saturday --

it's the gold standard, and it should put to myth that rural states don't want school choice. alabama's a rural state, and they passed it by more than 2 to 1 majorities, and governor ivy made this her number one legislative priority. this was a big win in alabama. ft. president no doubt. by the way, we're going to put the map of the states, you said 11 so far? >> all red states. pete: all red states that have done so. so states funding private -- this must be some variation of private school choice. >> yeah. this could be income-targeted, special needs-targeted. but another thing about this alabama win is that for a long time a little known secret is that the republicans were getting money from the teachers unions in alabama. so apparently now the republican politicians in alabama are more fearful of a new union, the kids' union, parents, who want more of a say in their kids' education than the teachers' union. so that's good news for parents and also for alabama politicians

since they learned something from what happened -- pete: let's go to texas, because you showcased a couple of examples where republican trying to keep their seats turned to the teachers' unions and said save them or, but school choice won the day on election. >> absolutely. it was a political earthquake in texas. this is the largest shift toward school choice in texas' political history. it was a total bloodbath for the incumbents who opposed school choice. 7% of the candidates that were targeted by been 77% of the candidates that were targeted by my organization for voting gwen school choice last year either lost their seats outright or were forced into runoffs. pete: that they'll probably lose, right? runoffs? >> three out of the four they're down in the races. so this is a complete bloodth bath. the it's a huge win for school choice. just think about it, pete, it's the hardest thing to do in politics, to take out a sitting legislate editor, an incumbent. pete: yeah. >> they usually win about 90, 95% of the time, so it's hard to overstate the victory for school

choice here. and, again, these were rural guys who said i was just voting my district. the rural voters don't want it. well,ing the polls after poll after poll was showing them leading up to in that republican primary voters even in rural areas are highly supportive of school choice. hopefully, that myth gets put to bed once and for all because they voted them out. for example, glenn rogers who was making this argument from a rural area, he lost by 27 points, an incumbent. a sitting legislator. it's unheard of. pete: i know tennessee is getting closer -- >> louisiana, tennessee, we have georgia, governor brian kemp called for it in his state of the tate address. wyoming's senate just passed universal school choice, and the house, i believe late last night, they didn't agree to all of the changes in the bill, but they might have a win this year as well in wyoming. pete: unions on their heels. public school unions. it's great to see. great work. >> absolutely. thank you very much. pete: we'll have you back. we've got a -- you've got a few

new book coming out. appreciate it. let's churn to chief -- turn to the chief himself, rick reichmuth. rick: a chilly start to the today across parts of the country. take a look at the maps, until 2 p.m., tornado watch anywhere you see that red, parts of georgia, parts of florida, over towards eventually towards south carolina, i think we'll see that extended later on this afternoon. that's where we have that threat for severe weather. big storming right now, one tornado warning, you see that little box there on the screen? that is a tornado warning antive right now. so if you're across parts of south georgia, be very care. throughout the day this moisture moves towards the northeast. snow across interior sections, the higher el vases -- elevations. by tomorrow afternoon most of this is out of here. pete, back to you inside. pete: thank you, rick. rick: you bet. pete: from spring cleaning to a weekend diy, our man, chip wade,
