meta-ceo mark zuckerberg saying he regrets caving to pressure from the biden administration to censor speech online. meanwhile, our commander in chief is enjoying his second straight vacation. but the white house claims he is still running the country. and this is the big one. vice president kamala harris' shocking new flip-flop when it comes to the border wall. you will not believe it. i'm kayleigh mcenany with emily compagno, also joining us fox business correspondent gerri willis, fox news contributor and board-certified physician, dr. nicole saphier, and one of my personal favorites, former arkansas governor and former presidential candidate, mike huckabee. so good to have him today. listen to this. vice president kamala harris now supports a border wall. she backs a plan to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on trump's marquee border wall. this was a project that harris
9:02 am
once described this way. >> this issue is about a vanity project for this president. and it is a problem of his own making. and listen, when i travel this country, folks have plenty enough problems that they need their president to focus on instead of a wall. on the subject of transnational gangs. let's be perfectly clear. the president's medieval vanity project is not going to stop them. we cannot continue to have been administration and a president of the united states who puts his vanity projects ahead of the needs of the people of our country. let me be very clear. i'm not going to vote f for a wl under any circumstances and i do support border security and if we want to talk about that, let's do that. >> kayleigh: now she wants to "build that wall." will we start hearing that and
9:03 am
harris rallies? she has a history of bashing the border wall. several years of tweets and calling it a "waste" and "stupid." trump rally crowds have been chanting "build that wall" for almost a decade, democrats derided them. >> his racist wall at our southern border. >> a racist and xenophobic wall. >> that wall in itself is a racist reaction to a racist myth. >> no matter how you feel about the wall, i think it's a moral abomination. >> america cannot simply build walls. we look foolish to the rest of the world. >> a medieval wall which you can't see through across the length of the southern border will not make us any safer. >> we have to do something other than building a wall. it's immoral, expensive, ineffective, and not something that people do between countries. >> awol is it a moral symbol for
9:04 am
our country. >> kayleigh: why the sudden epiphany? perhaps it has something to do with this headline since february saying people support the border wall more than ever before. will the american people buy this radical change of heart? harris is betting on it with a brand-new political ad. >> she took on drug cartels and jailed bank numbers for smuggling weapons and drugs across the border. as vice president, she backed the toughest border control bill in decades. >> kayleigh: governor huckabee, it's a radical change, believable change, almost made me fall out of my chair this morning. i want to get your reaction. this is what happened with the border wall. >> fly straight east out of nogales, arizona, and you will pass miles of rolling border wall built during the president george w. bush era. then it reveals a construction zone frozen in time. steel border wall left in stacks
9:05 am
and construction of quitman on staging grounds. weeks before president biden was inaugurated, the trump administration pushed ahead to build a 4-mile stretch of new border wall into the patagonia mountains. this is the end of the road. about 15 miles east of nogales, arizona, this is as far as the border wall construction got. >> kayleigh: hmm. >> mike: it's amazing that with a straight face she goes out there and says walls don't work. she does this for years. then all of a sudden, "i'm going to be strong on the border." no, she's not. the closest she has been to walls is appointing tim walz as vice president. that's as close as she gets. it's an amazing thing. will the american people believe her? the only people who been screaming about the wall are the democrats who live behind walls. nancy pelosi has a wall. joe biden is a wall around the white house. if they don't work, take them down. let's see if they work.
9:06 am
>> kayleigh: speaking of tim walz, tim walz has a message for his running mate. listen to this. >> talks about this wall. i always say, let me know how high it is. if it's 25 feet, i will invest in a 30-foot ladder factory. >> kayleigh: will he invest in a latter factory to defeat the commander in chief he is supposed to serve? >> kay>> emily: i would love the investment in american jobs. i will say so, to your question, i hope deeply that americans see through her. the clip from "is the same speech she gave when she announced her now failed candidacy for president in the made up home is from. she was born in berkeley and raised in canada. throwing around transnational gangs, the signal, the prosecutor has got it. the reality is under her tenure in that state as district attorney across the bay in san francisco and attorney general senator for a
9:07 am
minute and then vice president now, it has been ravaged by those transnational gangs actually. the very city that she stood has been ravitch, all summonses of safety obliterated. and so far to say that i have changed my mind and all of the vitriol i spoke about, president trump, is now on the whim of the fact that headlights are indicate majority of americans spoke this. what about all those americans that are stuck in the bay area, stuck in california, that under her watch lost love ones, have had their livelihoods eroded. her reciting a talking point from a teleprompter to me as a native california does nothing but indicate her hypocrisy and her knee-jerk acquiescing to whatever liberal left talking point is in the prompter and front of her. >> kayleigh: the question becomes, dr. saphier, with the media let her get away with it? the headline about the story. go from saying that it's a medieval project and now you embrace it.
9:08 am
the guardian headline is "republicans accused kamala harris of flip-flopping on border wall policy" >> nicole: of course they are going to let her get away with it. they are complicit. the exact opposite, if kamala harris is something versus if president trump says it. let's remember she keeps continuing to say president trump is the reason that the immigration bill didn't go through. he blocked the immigration bill and he's the reason there's a migrant problem right now. he decided -- his influence, i guess he said he didn't believe in that bill because it would allow far too many illegal crossings, unfairly tied to ukrainian funding and he thought it was a weak bill. that's whomever the crisis we are in right now is because day one, the harris and biden administration rolled back all of president trump's policies at the southwest border. she is saying she's going to fix it. she caused the problem. >> kayleigh: giancarlo, just
9:09 am
before posing as a kamala harris target did ask bernie sanders. >> if you take a look at that ad, if you look, and we have the images, there are at least three points in the ad that show the border wall, donald trump border wall. is it the position of the democrats that they favor the border wall? >> no. you can ask the harris campaign about that ad. that's the first that i've seen it. the bottom line, there is wide recognition and we've had some success. the number of illegal immigrants coming in recently has gone down substantially. that's a major issue and we've got to continue to do that. >> kayleigh: given his track record will he grill the kamala harris campaign on this? >> gerri: my reaction is what happened to the joy campaign? is she changing her idea on that too? at the end of the day she is co-opting the most popular ideas
9:10 am
of trump. former president trump has championed this cause for a long time. now here she comes. i'm kind of okay with that. if you really want to move to that side of the aisle, it's okay by me. it makes more sense certainly. we have no indication that she will stay there. it's all flip flopping and flip-flopping on a number of ideas and issues. i just hope that the medicare for all truly is dead because that would've cost us $47 trillion over ten years, something we can afford. >> kayleigh: first it was no tax on tips and now she wants to build that wall. why even have a debate? just say "i want that guy's policies." mark zuckerberg came out with this. the biden administration, he threw them under the bus admitting that they pressured facebook to censor covid content. live report next.

>> emily: meta ceo mark zuckerberg admits the biden-harris administration pressured facebook to censor covid-19 content. zuckerberg added that suppressing "the new york post" exclusive report on hunter biden's infamous laptop ahead of the 2020 election election was indeed a mistake. griff jenkins is in washington live with the details. >> hi, emily. it's not often that one of the most powerful ceos in the world just comes out publicly admits he was wrong. zuckerberg making the admission in a letter to house judiciary committee chairman jim jordan saying the biden-harris
9:16 am
administration "repeatedly pressured the company's teams" to censor covid-19 content, adding this. "i believe the government pressure was wrong and i regret that we were not more outspoken about it." emily, zuckerberg says his company was wrong too and they "demoted the hunter biden laptop story." michael shellenberger who testified before congress last year about government involvement in social media censorship thinks this could just be the beginning. >> you're looking at really an extraordinary abuse of power by both the fbi, cia, on covid and other issues by department of homeland security, so i think we are still at the beginning of a reckoning here are the panic that resulted from people's ability to get information from sources other than a few big media outlets that were favorable to the biden administration. >> the white house is responding saying this "when confronted with a deadly pandemic, this
9:17 am
administration occurs responsible actions to protect health and safety. our position has been clear and consistent. we believe tech companies and other private actors should take into account the effects their actions have on the american people while making independent choices about the information they present." finally, zuckerberg says no more zuckerbugs. he will not be making anymore political contributions. >> emily: governor, one of the issues i have with the white house statement, how can americans make responsible decisions or any autonomous decisions when the information is wrong? encouraged by the white house. >> mike: it's really remarkable that the government put the pressure on facebook. you know what's equally remarkable? that facebook accepted the pressure. why didn't they say "we are not going to let the government tell us what to print, tell us what to say, tells what to think. that's an abuse of the
9:18 am
first amendment. he can say all he wants to about "i was wrong." like burning your house on and sing i want to bring over a nice housewarming gift tomorrow for the rubble that's left. the 2020 election was definitely influenced by the misinformation, the lies and distortions that were told, facebook was a big part of it. they played the game and the plated to end for joe biden. they cannot come back and pretend we really didn't mean it, we are really good guys. no, they're not good guys and let's not pretend they are. >> emily: let's play clip of zuckerberg's conversation with joe rogan in june when he was asked if facebook censor the hunter biden laptop story. >> there was a lot of attention on twitter during the election because the hunter biden laptop story. "the new york post." so you censor that as well? >> it took a different path than twitter. basically the background is the fbi came to us, some folks on
9:19 am
our team and like hey, just so you know, like, you should be on high alert. we thought there was a lot of russian propaganda in the 2016 election. we have it on notice that basically there's about to be some kind of dump that is similar to that so just be vigilant. so our protocol is different from twitter. what twitter did is they said you can't share this at all. we didn't do that. what we do is we have, if something is reported to assess potentially misinformation, important misinformation, we also do third-party fact-checking. we don't want to decide what's true and false. for the five or seven days and was basically being determined whether it was false, the distribution on facebook was decreased but people were still allowed to share it. you can still share it, you
9:20 am
could still consume it. >> did they specifically say you need to be on guard about that story? >> no. i don't know if it was that specifically but it fit the pattern. >> emily: reading in between the gobbledygook of that, i think, and we like to quote shakespeare that yes, he protests too much because it seemed like there was a lot of words about my thing and that now to the governors point we forgotten that admission too little, too late. >> emily: great questions from joe rogan, long, winding, twisting answers from zuckerberg. okay, zuckerberg. if you want to put your money where your mouth is, people are behind these algorithms that centered reagan, they trump assassination photo leave apologize for. the white house statement that we encouraged social media companies, give me a break. jen psaki said clearly not sufficient what they are doing. that might be encouragement. president biden said they are killing people in the white house had to clarify, we
9:21 am
need the -- we mean the people spreading this information. jen psaki. they need to face legal consequent to spirit kate bedingfield. we not do make sure that they are held accountable. that's mafia like word coming from the federal government to private companies. the fbi command center before 2022. there's a lot there. we need to dig into it because the more we learn the worse it gets. >> emily: when does accountability fit in and what does that look like? we've been speaking earlier, there is a responsibility when you flip-flop, responsibility when your policies, actions, decisions of a very negative and real impact on americans. what are we supposed to do with this admission? the election past and there is one about to happen. >> gerri: is not very satisfying but i've got to tell you i don't really expect mark zuckerberg to defend my first amendment rights. he's a ceo. he started his career by building a platform where harvard students could rate the individual hotness of people that went to class with. okay, that his world.
9:22 am
he is about that kind of thing. so don't look for him to be the first amendment freedom fighter. i do think that's going to happen at all. the real problem is the white house is out behind this twisting arms and forcing people to do things. that's the shame of this. this is what makes me nervous, this is what i don't like. >> gerri: we learned that the taliban made it illegal for women to speak out in public in that headline is gone because that's the human rights violation we expect an islamic countries and communist nations. not in our democratic republic. that's what has happened here, censorship, abolition of our first amendment rights. mark zuckerberg said it wasn't just misinformation that was scientifically proven false that was removed from his platform, he said satire and humor was removed as well. this goes beyond some public health measure. this is government control of the narrative and i take this personally because i myself, i got cyber attack, friends and
9:23 am
colleagues who lost their job, all of this drink of it because we spoke out against masking children, lockdowns, keeping kids out of school, universal vaccine and booster campaigns. i was quoted by a couple article thing i was spreading this miss information promoting conspiracy theories because i would not quash the possibility of the virus coming out of the wuhan lab. i was a target of this and so i've already heard from her president trump mate one of the things he wants to do is reinstate the military who lost their rank, lost their jobs because they didn't get the covid vaccine and he would give them back pay. this is righting a wrong. this chuckle the first debate question should be to kamala harris saying how she complicit in removing our first amendment rights and what is she going to do to right the wrongs their administration is done. >> emily: great questions. i hope we get answers someday. i won't hold my breath. if it's answers like zuckerberg's, it's too little, too late and americans stopped laughing along time ago. all right, guys, president biden is not a vacation after a long week of being on vacation.
9:24 am
but the white house insist no, guys, he's running the country." did i read this? did i get eggs? where are my keys? memory and thinking issues keep piling up? it may be due to a buildup of amyloid plaques in the brain. visit morethannormalaging.com

9:28 am
all in one place. and new patients without insurance get $29 exams and x-rays. plus 20% off treatment plans for everyone. loving our patients unconditionally. it's one more way aspen dental is in your corner. >> i've got five months left of my presidency. i've got a lot to do. i intend to get it done. [cheering] >> emily: yes, sir, that was president biden speaking at the dnc eight days ago. he says he has a lot left to do, so where has he been? following his dnc speech, biden took the week off in california. right now, as we speak, he's relaxing and unwinding at his home and rehoboth beach. let's go live to peter doocy who is working right now at the
9:29 am
white house with more details. peter. >> always working, emily. even though there is this growing feeling of senioritis among biden staffers here at the white house, we've been assured president biden is still on top of things. >> how engaged is he in any of this question rick. >> very engaged. when he feels like it's time for him to pick up the phone and call, he will pick up the phone and call three he's got relationships with these leaders such that they will answer that call and talk to him. >> president biden has joked he will campaign for or against vice president harris, whichever she things will be more helpful. it appears the initial calculation is president biden should stay out of it for a while. >> i know that our president, joe biden, is looking forward to the difference he can make and the remaining months, and i'm optimistic giving our recent conversations about who he sees the campaign and the months ahead. >> we are under the impression vice president harris was going to do an interview about that
9:30 am
campaign that lies ahead by the end of the month which is the end of this week but if you listen very carefully to what she has started, and what staffers are saying, it's just that she will have one scheduled by the end of the month. emily. >> emily: the goalpost keeps moving, peter. thank you so much. so, governor, we are assured that indeed the commander in chief is still engaged and still on it that is a lot of questions of whether that's actually true. >> mike: heavy lifting to joe biden is lifting the phone and putting it back down. up and down. he told us he was going to spend the next months of his presidency saving democracy. so now we know, if you want to save democracy, take an extended vacation. so there is the message to every american. you want to really fix your family? make your business better? take time off. extended time off. take a big old vacation on the beach and everything is coming up roses. >> emily: what message does that send, doctor, to all americans struggling, suffering, many of them. there commander in chief is
9:31 am
taking a vacation. >> nicole: first of all i do think taking some time away is always good for someone's mental and physical health. the reality is not everyone can afford to do that right now. when prices still remain very high. mortgage rates are so incredibly high. people are having a hard time buying homes. everyone's going back to school. the active school supplies and more excessive than they ever have been. it's not really a good look. i started rewatching the court veep in honor of our current comedic situation we find ourselves in and at this point in that series the president steps down and allows the vice president to become president while campaigning to be present. president biden thought he had a strong vice president, one with foreign policy knowledge, he might actually choose to step down but he can't do that right now. the best thing he can do is probably stay out of the public eye because we are in such a serious situation in the middle east and they already are making parity on -- parity on television around the world. >> emily: it's not parity --
9:32 am
parody. yesterday my three year anniversary of the absolutely botched withdrawal of afghanistan. the list goes on and what we need that commander in weigh in on and be on top of and yet per the schedule of the white house, he and the first lady will simply remain enrolled with beach. that doesn't seem like a schedule befitting the commander in chief. >> kayleigh: two items are true. number one, yes it's technically true that the presidency travels with the president. he has the nuclear football. he has this gift. he has staff. is he working as hard from his billionaire friends home in california as he would at the oval office. working as hard in the beach chair and delaware? here's the real problem. former white house aide said to me do you remember when he told us the reason he didn't do well in the debate was because he was traveling so much? he is traveling a lot to these
9:33 am
vacation spots at a time when luke lucas tomlinson has tweeted the u.s. navy has 17 warships in the middle east. at a time when that's happening i would rather a president be in the situation room in the white house than at the delaware beach house. >> gerri: it's not the cuban missile crisis but look, there is a full on war in europe. the middle east is in flames. china is threatening taiwan. we sort of need somebody on pennsylvania avenue and we don't have it right now. i find that concerning. i know wall street finds its concerning. it's not just that there's no one there. we don't know what the policy is or is going to be you. there are too many questions and ultimately this has broader impacts beyond just washington and capitol hill. it also hits the economy. >> emily: seems when president biden stepped down from the candidacy he took it as stepping down from the
9:34 am
presidency and that's what's unacceptable. while the vice president goes interview shopping question rick the effort by her campaign to find the perfect journalist for her to sit down with. we will bring you that next. my name is brayden. i was five years old when i came to st. jude. i'll try and shorten down the story. so i've been having these headaches
9:35 am
that wouldn't go away. my mom, she was just crying. what they said, your son has brain cancer. it was your worst fear coming to life. watching your child grow up is the dream of every parent. you can join the battle to save the lives of kids like brayden, by supporting st. jude children's research hospital . families never receive a bill from st. jude for treatment, travel, housing, or food, so they can focus on helping their child live . what they have done for me, my son, my family-- i'm sorry, yeah. life is a gift, especially for a child battling cancer. call or go online and help save another lives of children like brayden. now, i'm 11 years old. we were actually doing the checkup for my brain.
9:36 am
and they saw something in my throat. it's thyroid cancer. it was heartbreaking to find out that he has cancer again. but we knew who we had behind us. it just gives me hope. you can make a difference. join with your credit or debit card for only $19 a month. and we'll send you this st. jude t-shirt. without st. jude or its donors, we would have been in a bad place. these kids, they've done nothing wrong in the world. finding a cure for childhood cancer, it means everything. help st. jude give kids with cancer a chance.

>> madam vice president, there's been a lot of questions about when you're going to sit down for your first interview. >> i want us to get an interview scheduled before the end of the month. >> kayleigh: that was nearly three weeks ago. the end of the month is four days from now. time is running out. the harris game of hide and seek well that's coming to an end we think. it's four days. the vice president has her handlers using a new strategy. she is "interview shopping" according to politico. the harris campaign staff-asking reporters who they think she should talk to. behind the scenes, tv producers, big-name anchors, big networks, have been calling the campaign to pitch their talent is the person she has to do the interview with. one of the lines stuck out to me from the reporting and they say
9:40 am
the main narrative is that harris needs to do a lengthy interview. sitdown interview with a brand-name news anchor who will push on issues. this part is interesting. "harris herself has expressed disagreement with that view," we are told by two people telling some democrats she does not need a big showy interview. is she going to sit down with joy reid? >> gerri: she wants gayle king. that's who she thinks would be a good person to do her interview. that would be a soft touch. i don't think it's going to be a hard interview. at the end of the day she doesn't need to do one big interview. she needs to be interviewing all the time. two times a week, four times a week. we need to hear from her. she has been under wraps for the entirety of the presidency. we don't really know it she believes. 37 days, no comment. this isn't right. we don't have a lot of time now to decide who's going to be president. >> kayleigh: dr. saphier, they say one of the issues harris is currently working to address is
9:41 am
how to deploy her running mate, tim walz. listen. a booklet the danger in sending him out to do big solo interviews is that he might not have a full command of where harris is on every issue." you think? we woke up thinking she didn't want to build a wall and now she does. >> nicole: of course he doesn't know where she is. she doesn't know where she is. her campaign website reads like the back of a book cover. his bunch of her friends and past accolades. not surprising at all. is it hurting her not being interviewed? we heard leslie marshall on "faulkner focus" saying it isn't hurting her. she is fund-raising and polling fine. this is where republicans are in danger. this is where they tend to get in trouble and become complacent because they continue to stay, what is she lacking? her website is lacking policy. it's incredulous she hasn't posted her policy but at the end of the day republicans need to worry less about, harrison worry about themselves getting out the vote making sure they're reaching the independent voters,
9:42 am
they care about the economy, abortion, immigration. former president trump needs to be incredibly clear on where he stands because kamala harris continues to spew lies about him, saying he supports a federal abortion ban which he does not. >> kayleigh: if harris does an interview, she will have to answer a lot. this is what you have to answer. >> a loaf of bread costs 50% more today. ground beef is up almost 50%. there is not much left at the end of the month. bidenomics is working. >> kayleigh: she will have to answer saying one thing and then sing another. >> emily: she would have to answer if someone asks her the questions. here's what this shows. i guess it's no surprise. it's all about her. it doesn't matter who the interviewer is although yeah, gayle king. we all want gayle king obvi
9:43 am
obviously. >> gerri: i'm not saying she's a bad person. i just want to tough journalistic interview. >> emily: but it's not about the vice president. it's about americans. i want americans to ask the questions. i want my presidential candidate to answer what americans have to ask. i don't care about who she is as a person. we need to know her policy so while she is shopping for the right interviewer, it's because she wants to set the tone and have control about her image. we don't need that. what we need is your policies. sit down with an average american, live stream and then you can make your fluff piece with whoever you want later on. >> kayleigh: this is harris by the numbers. it's worth driving home. zero primaries won during the democratic primaries, zero primaries during the democrat primary. zero sitdown interview. zero press pages. governor, why is this so difficult. your daughter was press
9:44 am
secretary for trump. so was i. you sit with the press secretary's office and you face every question but you do it. why is it hard to sit down with a friendly interviewer. >> mike: you are so cynical and so unfair to her. [laughter] she said she was going to have an interview at the end of the month. she didn't say which month. [laughter] for us it's unbelievable that she goes 37 days without an interview. if you look at it from a purely political standpoint, it's very smart. she can handle an interview. number the saying in "a few good men." jack nicholson says "you can't handle the truth." the truth is she can't handle an honest interview. if it's scripted and she can read, fine. she can't do that if it's a hard hitting interview. she doesn't know what she believes. her word salad, or stumbling. if i'm her political director, i'm keeping her off tv. i'm not letting her go out th
9:45 am
there. >> nicole: republicans cannot get complacent. >> kayleigh: if you can't sit down across from, let's make it joy reid, if you can't do that then how can you sit down on a phone call with xi, with putin, how can you handle a dictator if you can't handle talking points. >> gerri: it's smart. we want to see her, and not the manufactured her, nothing woman in these ads, not the woman they are putting in front of the dnc convention. want to see her talking about what she believes in at length. not something short and sweet, something at length where we can understand who she is. otherwise it's impossible. we are right on top of this election. we need to know more. >> kayleigh: lots of questions. maybe we'll get some answers. we have four days.

9:51 am
dr. and mom of three. >> nicole: i wrote about this in june. this is a big issue. my personal and professional opinion is that younger children have phones way too early. i don't understand why we should have a conversation about elementary or middle school kids having a phone. in general, not to mention at school. when it comes to older kids in high school, driving, i get it. going to and from athletics you want to communicate with your kids, yes. we have far too much addiction with our children and electronics. do i think there is a safe way to allow older kids to bring their phones to school? yes. should they have it out during class or lunch? absolutely not. needs to be fully focused on school and having it during lunchtime or between classes, they shouldn't have it either because they're missing out on opportunities for social interaction. rebel generation kids kids who don't have an auto look someone in the eye and have a conversation. i can argue both sides of this but ultimately i do not favor phones in school. >> emily: there something called the osprey movement.

aaron and ben napier of hdtv are proponents of. letting them have a device free childhood, letting them be children and outdoor activities and social interaction community engagement. keeping it out of school through high school. people are signing on. how will that be implemented? how should governors take this in stride and put the needs of their communities above regulatory and sort of influence by media companies? >> mike: we don't want the government telling a parent their kid can't have a phone at home or when they're out. but saying you can't have a phone at school, that's absolutely government function because the government is funding the schools. if you say you can't take it into your classroom, you have to put it on a shelf, you can pick it up at the end of the day, end of class. sometimes i look at our culture and i think, let's don't just ban them from schools. let's ban them from adults. sometimes you can't have a conversation with an adult. you are at a restaurant, they
9:53 am
are on their doggone phone the whole time. there's a a need for social interaction, what dr. saphier has mentioned. should the government encourage parents to restrict the use of phones? absolutely. that's an appropriate form of government. they just can't mandate it and absolutely demand it, unless you're a democrat, then of course he could. >> emily: kayleigh, kids take cues from their parents and communities. i grew up without cell phones or the internet so my family dinner table every night together having a conversation with my loved ones. >> kayleigh: there's a balance. we have seen the data in "the wall street journal" about how toxic social media can be what you find on your phone, on a smartphone. girls that are suicidal, eating disorders, limiting use in schools, 100%. i do not believe in taking them out of schools for safety reason and that is uvalde from personal

9:55 am
to that problem. you get to mom and dad but you can't surf the web. you can't be on social media sites. i agree with the governor here. i know we are focused on children and i think that's very smart but i think this is also hurting adults now. we all have short-term memories, we can't concentrate, can't focus. we are having a hard time connecting to people. loneliness is one the biggest social problems in the country, right? so i think if the end of the day we all need to rethink what we are doing with phones. >> emily: i literally was like, i just have early alzheimer's but maybe it's just social media. more "outnumbered." next.
