down 140 on the nasdaq. down nearly 40 on the s&p. show me big tech. probably not doing that well this morning, no they're not. we've got one winner amazon which is up all of 51 gigantic cents but we have apple, meta, microsoft, alphabet down and look at the yield on the 10 year treasury back to 3.70%. historically, relatively high level, semitism for the last couple of years. that's the markets and now this. well its come to this. at an american university, hunter college in new york city, a professor confronts a group of students who oppose abortion. she insults them, uses foul language and tips over their display. later, a new york post reporter tries to get an interview with the professor at her apartment. she emerges with a machete, which she holds briefly against his throat. the reporter leaves but he's pursued into the street by the

machete-wielding professor. there's nothing peaceful about being woke. they are so sensitive until challenged with an alternative point of view. that is no holds bar. violent confrontation becomes the norm. that is the state of play on campus. interesting that in florida, governor desantis is pushing back against this divisive and violent woke movement in state schools. meanwhile, the naacp issues a travel advisory don't go to florida because the state has become hostile to people of color. free speech is not violence. the open expression of opinion is not hostility. those are lessons our colleges have yet to learn. third hour of "varney" starts right now. martha maccallum, thank goodness , is joining us on the fox news channel. >> always good to see you. stuart: that professor, she has been fired but i want to know

will her super-woke teaching staff union support her and will she just move on to teach some place else? >> likely. likely be my gut reaction to that. i don't understand why she's not facing actual charges for threatening someone with a knife, threatening someone with a machete. now, i understand he appeared at her door, and that can be disturbing to people. nobody likes someone unannounced showing up at their door, but yes. stuart: she chased him into the streets. >> it disturbs me so deeply to watch her toss these materials off that table. this is a free speech issue. these students setup a table in order to express their beliefs about pro-life. they have every right to do that so what are these students learning at this university? that they're going to be acosted by a professor whose going to destroy their display and yell in their faces? it is, it's so deeply offensive

to watch this. so i'm glad she was fired. at least there's a little bit of accountability to begin with here. stuart: but i see these extraordinary events taking place on our campuses and i think we're coming to the end of this. surely, its gotten so bad that there's going to be, you know, a movement against it and will come down on the other side of wokeness. are we there yet? >> i hope you're right. i do sense that we're starting to turn the corner. that there is a lot of dissatisfaction with what's going on on campuses. think about university of chicago, other places that have really tried to embrace free speech. it's a rocky road, but this is what college is all about and i've always felt that they should ask students to take the other perspective from the one that they have and debate it. you know, whether it's guns or abortion, in a civilized manner and actually i started a program like this up at the university that i went to, where you get students together for civil discourse, and the next step of it be to do just that. to say you're going to, are you

in favor of gun rights? you're going to argue against them and just hear each other's side. i really think it would go a long way in the university system. stuart: well done, martha, you're part of progress. florida governor desantis announces his campaign tonight in a live twitter conversation with elon musk. all right, martha. i call that a political coo for desantis, and i think it's going to help him. what say you? >> i think it's a great political move. very smart. it puts him in the arena with sort of a forward-looking conservative movement. he's been openly positive about desantis, musk. he says he wants a normal president. of course there's a ton of criticism. i just read a piece saying that this is just showing that twitter has gone further down that road. i think it's also obviously the non-trump social media experience that's out there. that's an interesting move, chess move, against the former president who has his own truth social and who left twitter, so i think it's a very good move.

stuart: but you never know what he's going to say. it's a live conversation. you don't see it, you just hear it. who knows what elon musk is going to come out with. >> i know, right? we seen that in recent interview s. i think it's a risk but desantis is pretty solid in these environments. i once did a debate, brett and i anchored a debate he was in and i think he's better on his feet than people give him credit for sometimes. stuart: well it's at 6:00 tonight eastern time. unfortunately, it will not be part of your show, but i'm sure you are going to build up to it at 3:00. >> absolutely we'll have a lot of good buildup. stuart: it's the story at 3:00 eastern time? >> the story. stuart: and the fox news channel >> fox news channel. be there or be square. stuart: terrific promotion, i've just given you right there. >> thank you. stuart: thanks for being on the show. we do appreciate you. >> always good to see you. stuart: back to the markets look whose here now. mark tepper back with us for the hour. wait a minute. i see the prompter here. it says you say the ai rally looks overdone. what are you trying to do kill

me here? i've got microsoft. >> i'm not trying to poo-poo on the ai parade but its gotten way ahead of itself. i do think ai is a big game changer, help improve efficiency , productivity but i'm looking at a list of all of the best performing stocks year-to-date and if i were to focus on those that are up 30% or more year-to-date, it's very ai dominant. you've got nvidia, meta, amd, google, amazon, microsoft, they are all in there. my guess is that if you were to strip out the ai buying frenzy from the stock market, the market wouldn't be up 7%. it would probably be down 7%, and you look at some of these companies, nvidia as an example. up 110% this year. it's trading as if it's a pure play on ai, which it isn't. their gpu's are used in a lot of different things. microsoft, they made a $10 billion investment in chatgpt which lead to a $700 billion increase in market

capitalization. stuart: whoa. that's a good trade-off. stuart: but you think its reached a peak and there's a pullback. >> without a doubt it needs a breather things need to cool off and let the actual technology catch up to those stock market returns. stuart: but this is typical of the big new thing. >> yeah. stuart: any company involved in the big new thing goes straight up and then there's a rationalization and consolidation and they all come down. >> we mentioned this a couple weeks ago as we were going through earnings season that if a company mentioned that they were out ill illinois utilizing ai in the earnings call the stock went up, so my biggest concern with ai is i don't want us to form another bubble. we just got out of a bubble so i think in order for this to be a legit rally and i do think this is a positive secular trend , things need to go at a little bit more of a reasonable pace. stuart: i think i'm safe with google and microsoft because they are so huge. >> without a doubt. stuart: they aren't going down

to zero or 10%. >> no. stuart: so i am safe? >> you're safe. stuart: thanks tepper, you can stay. lauren is back looking at the movers first place is netflix. lauren: they have more revenue because cracking down on password sharers here in the u.s. so it will be $8 a month if you do share your account with someone outside of your home. how many people are we talking about? 100 million people. >> wow. lauren: share passwords or 46% of all subscribers. this gets really confusing though because if you have two homes, and you want to use the same account, listen to this you must connect to the internet at the primary household attached to the netflix account and open the app on all of your mobile devices once a month to maintain access when you move to your second home. stuart: case closed i've got to pay for netflix. lauren: it's just easier if you can afford two homes you afford two netflix accounts. stuart: but the stock is up because that will bring in -- lauren: more revenue. stuart: theoretically at least. american airlines national transportation safety board says

dramatic lockdown. lauren: that's the fear. can i come in and say that i think we learned our lessons and china went through a lot to get out of it and i don't think the casinos are cratering today. they are down but not down 7% or 10%. stuart: okay. we'll see. lauren: maybe learned some lessons from the past. stuart: that's an intriguing story. where does this go. all right, lauren. still to come, huge show. we've got for you, judge jeanine pirro is going to be here with her new book "crimes against america." she says that it is an indictment against those who are "fundamentally transforming america as we know it." the judge is going to be here. have you heard the term "fun employment"? it means not worrying about getting a job or career, just enjoying life with no responsibilities. apparently, it's the rave with those young gen z folks. we'll ask kennedy what she think s about that. target pulling back on their prime campaign. they are removing some lgbtq merchandise after intense

well-done. all right, target held emergency meetings over possible backlash to their new lgbtq pride displays. now, some locations have now moved those displays to the back of the store. madison alworth with us. looks to me like target is trying to avoid a bud light situation. what do you say? reporter: it definitely seems as much, stuart, and they are taking action like you said moving items in some locations and target also confirming to us that they're actually pulling certain items off the shelves because of backlash, so all of the items being pulled are within the pride section. those items have been talked about online, a lot of customers frustrated with certain items including pieces that, for example, a mug that says "gender fluid" and swimsuits marked as " tuck friendly" sold in a female style. there's also particular outrage that the same style of swimsuit has been made for children, in

children sizes but target has told the associated press that is not true. target confirming to fox business that they are pulling certain items, saying in a statement, "since introducing this years collection, we've experienced threats impacting our team members sense of safety and well being while at work. given these volatile circumstances, we are making adjustments to our plans including removing items at the center of the most significant confrontational behavior. this all follows reports from fox digital that target made an emergency call to certain managers on friday in some of their southern locations to move their pride gear from the front of the store to the back. a target insider telling fox digital "we were given 36 hours, told to take all of our pride stuff, and move it to a section that was a third of the size, from the front of the store to the back." i think given the current situation with bud light, the company is terrified. the ceo of target doubling down on this collection saying the following in a podcast about

a month ago. take a listen. >> i'm really proud of the work we've done in the dnei space. when you walk into a store and you feel at home, and it represents the community, it makes a huge difference. i think those are just good business decisions and it's the right thing for society and it's the great thing for our brand. reporter: so, we've been able to talk to some customers here at this target. some unaware of this ongoing controversy. others aware but they don't want to talk to us on camera because it is a touchy subject and they are obviously shopping here so they tell us they don't like it but target is convenient so for the time being, they will continue to shop at target. this target location, stuart, pride year still at the front of the store. i'll send it back to you. stuart: thank you, madison see you later. the governor of california, gavin newsom, just joined the conversation. here is the tweet. ceo of target, brian cornell selling out the lgbtq plus community to extremists. he's a real profile incur age.

i guess that's sarcasm. this isn't just a couple of stores in the south. it's a systematic attack on the gay community happening across the country. wake up america. this doesn't stop here. you're black, asian, jewish, you're a woman, you're next. kennedy is here. to me, kennedy, the issue is not about target selling pride gear. they've done that for years. it's about marketing it to kids. in my opinion, that's not something you should be doing. what do you say? >> well i don't mind if they market pride stuff to kids. i don't have a problem with that i love pride stuff. like i have a rainbow swim cap. it's to keep all the men away, because i'm so sexy that i'm only one woman, and i try and remind my fellow swimmers of that, but i like this for a long time, like i'm old enough to know gay people who stayed in the closet for a long time because if you came out, your life was ruined. you would lose your job. you would destroy your reputation, and so you know, we kind of went to, we found a nice

equilibrium where companies like they celebrated pride month and they would have little flags here and there but now, there's this us or them mentality and i find that to be exhausting. i don't want to cancel target. i don't want to have to cancel every brand because they might violate some personal principle that i have, and i do think a lot of these companies, it's just about their bottom line. it's not about supporting the gay community. it's about selling stuff, and so they realize that bud light made people realize if you force an ideology down your consumers throats they will rebell, so that's where we're at. stuart: okay. i think that there's a bigger problem here and that is shoplifting. target -- >> the gay stuff is so attractive people can't keep their hands off it. stuart: target, it cost them $500 million shoplifting? they call it shrinkage. in this society, stealing is no longer considered wrong. that's a real problem. >> it's awful. stuart: is that all you're going to say?

>> no it's horrible! the libertarianism don't hurt people, don't take their stuff. stuart: okay. >> i am a firm believer in pride or property. if i buy something it's mine. if i steal it, it's theft. stealing is wrong. stuart: yes it is and in new york city, the mayor, eric adams , has a solution. he wants to put special kiosks in-stores. these kiosks would connect thieves to social services. call up social services, stop me from stealing. come on, what do you think of that? >> i think it's silly. if someone is going into a store hell bent on taking something and if they are taking something to sell it, to buy drugs, they aren't going to be like oh, let me just take a moment and get on the phone with this social services person, because that's what i need. they need massive security guards to give people hugs, like really tight hugs and then hug them right out of the store. maybe that be a deterrent. stuart: lauren?

lauren: i was in a pharmacy in new york city and i watched a thief try to steal something, and was stopped and someone who worked in the store followed that person out. i followed behind them, and she said to him "god is with you today, how can i help you" and i was really taken aback by what i had just witnessed. stuart: wait a minute. how did it turn out? lauren: no. well he never stole the item. he put the item back, so by law if you don't leave the store with the item, if you're caught taking it but don't leave with it that's not a crime. >> yeah, there's like three bouncers in my cvs. they don't screw around anymore, and they look at you like hey how you doing? i'm like where are your baby wipes? they are like right there thanks for coming but other people come in shifty, following them around playing zone defense. lauren: this one tried to debt ceiling with this person to help i was kind of taken aback by it. stuart: interesting. have you heard the term "fun employment"? it means not worrying about getting a job, just enjoying

life. no responsibilities. apparently, it's all the rage with gen z. funemployment what do you got to say on that? >> this is why there's a huge shift for employers to hire older people who are going to work hard, who want to make a little more money before their retirement, maybe they have seen their savings dwindle with down markets and economic downturn, but people who have listened to politicians like aoc and bernie sanders who think they have free college, all sorts of maybe free housing at some point, because why wouldn't we? they don't have the urgency to work hard. they have disintegrated the work ethic. the socialists in this country made the work ethic evaporate and so people are told that they're special and shouldn't be triggered. there should be safe spaces. there should be free speech zones and if you are uncomfortable you probably shouldn't work and probably should engage in some self-care. [laughter] can you imagine your grandma engaging in self-care?

stuart: what is it in particular that you don't like about trump? is it maybe the legal problems that he's facing between now and the election? >> well look. i think a lot of things that have been happening to trump are unfair. i totally agree with that. we obviously know the investigation of russia was completely fake, but no. i don't think that donald trump can win, and that's one of the main reasons. i look at the map. you've got to win states like nevada and arizona, virginia, or wisconsin, new hampshire. i mean, we're going to win mississippi. we got that okay? we're going to win florida. we're going to win ohio but we've got to win some other states and i don't think trump can do it. he didn't do it last time, and it's going to be even harder this time. stuart: we are told that mega donors like yourself will be meeting the ritz carlton in miami after his announcement tonight. are you going to be there? and how much do you think this group of mega-donors can round up for desantis? >> [laughter] well, i'm in florida if you can tell by the background i have so

i'm already in the state. i will be down there, and i will be helping the governor, so we'll see what we can do but yes , we're going to be down there, and assuming he does announce tonight, i haven't actually asked, so i don't know for certain, but i feel like it's coming soon. stuart: you think he's going to real in hundreds of millions of dollars or a mere tens of millions of dollars? >> well, he has a super-pack already that's got more money than trump's super-pack so he's got that side covered. this is for the campaign itself, and i think we'll raise certainly tens of millions of dollars for the campaign, and that's watts going to be needed to run the effort, so i don't think that it's going to be a problem. we'll see. obviously, no one has started yet because he hasn't even announced, but i think, you know , he's the clear alternative in my opinion to donald trump and i think he's the only one that can likely beat him. stuart: last one. on this program, i and others have been saying that tonight's

announcement, alongside elon musk, is a political coo and will really help the governor. i take it you agree with that. >> well never hurts to have elon musk on your side or helping in any way you can so i think that's certainly helpful, but look. he's one person. we've got to convince the country that the governor desantis is the right one to lead, so it's going to be a huge team effort to try to do this. there's going to be a lot of work ahead and i'm looking forward to the next year to see how things play out. i do think again, obviously, elon musk i think will have democrats on as well, so i don't think i would necessarily view it as elon musk is only going to have ron desantis on his platform. he's going to have everybody on his platform. stuart: hal lambert what a pleasure. thank you very much for being on the show. you've got a big day coming wish i could be there. thank you very much. >> thank you, stuart. stuart: now this. the surgeon general has a dire warning about social media. spell it out, lauren. lauren: the kids are not all right that's the bottom line.

19 page advisory from dr. murphy highlighting the risks that social media poses to children's mental health and he makes recommendations that puts much of the policing burden on the parents. >> i believe that if your child whose under 13 needs a phone, it should be a flip phone, or an old fashion slide phone. putting the internet in the pocket of your pre-teenager is developmentally not right. lauren: developmentally not right. they can't have the internet and all this access 24/7 in their pocket. that doctor says eighth grade for a smartphone. look, the social media platforms do have age restrictions and plenty of other restrictions. you can't say they aren't doing their part. it's just not working, and that's what the surgeon general is saying right now. so what could we do? we can get rid of the like button because kids see , you know, how many times a post is liked as validation that they're popular, for instance. how about education?

stuart: it's time for this day in history, american built on this day, may 24, 1883, the brooklyn bridge opened to traffic. it was the longest suspension bridge in the world until 1903. now you know. don't forget to watch "american built" mondays 9:00 p.m. eastern only on fox business prime. the administration is pushing for farmers to go even greener, and to spend a lot more money doing so. lydia hu is at a seventh generation farm in illinois. all right, lydia. what are the farmers saying about this? reporter: hey, there, stuart. you know, they are feeling a

little frustrated and we've got seventh generation family farm right here. the farmer mr. alan adams. we are so glad to be with you. you know, mr. adams, the climate envoy john kerry recently said that agriculture industry needs to make innovation front and center because he's concerned about emissions. when you hear about that in his statements does that concern you what do you want john kerry to know about what you're already doing on your farm? >> well i wish secretary kerry would come out here so we could give him a chance to show him all the things to do, because you know, the beef industry in the united states is the most efficient in the world, and so we're doing all sorts of things in terms of when we sequester carbon in our pastures and in our fields, those are things that a lot of people don't know about, and we don't get credit for it, but these are ongoing things that we're doing, and there's so much research in this area right now that we can only get better, so i feel like

our future is going to be providing those things that they're asking for. reporter: let's touch on cost for just a moment because you know, your margins are thin and any time there's a mandated change or an environmental regulation, that cuts into your operations, right? >> well, that's what concerns us most about mandates is that we want to be responsible but there's going to have to be some help to implement some of these practices, as our scientists develop them. we'll need to think about how we're going to fund them because oftentimes there isn't a bottom line return when you adopt them. reporter: all right, mr. adams. we'll follow-up with you and see if mr. kerry takes you up on that invitation to come out to the farm and learn more about the cattle practices here. stuart back to you. stuart: we got it thank you very much indeed. right now, speaker mccarthy is holding a press conference, yet of course talking about the debt ceiling. we're going to monitor it and bring you any highlights that we

come across and of course we'll watch the markets response as well and then there's this. climate protesters rushed the stage at shell's shareholder meeting. lauren, what happened? lauren: this was in london. i took the meeting one hour to get started, because they had to diffuse the protesters. they were mad that shell and yes , other fossil fuels companies are making record profits, while polluting the planet and keeping brits energy bills sky high. well one reason the energy bills are high is that there's not enough green energy to power their homes and they want to throw, you know, throw the backs up to the fossil fuels firms and throw them out of business. took them one hour to get rid of those protesters. stuart: oh, boy. lauren: escorted some out. i want to take this back to the u.s. for a second because something is happening this afternoon that has not happened in years. there will be a federal lease sale happening online in the permian basin for the state of new mexico. this is tremendous.

this shows that the white house is saying, we might need you to drill more, so we'll let you get a permit faster. it's still taking months, maybe nine months instead of 12-plus months, but they are actually opening up some of the leases, and remember when you drill in the permian basin you have to go miles down n' out so you run into several permits and leases you need to get. stuart: it could be a breakthrough and we'll take it, thank you very much indeed, lauren. wait for it. judge jeanine pirro. she has a new book, it's called "crimes against america." in it, she's making her case against president biden, his white house and the far left. she says they're driving our country to the brink of destruction. the judge is here. you are going to see her walk across the set. she's a star. she walks like a star for heaven sake. look at that and she's going to sit on the set with us on "varney" & company. what a show, we'll be back. ♪

stuart: judge jeanine pirro has a new book and it's called " crime against america." and the judge joins me now. judge, its been a long time. you used to be on this show on a regular basis. >> yeah, what happened? stuart: i don't know, covid problem.

>> it's great to be back with all of you. stuart: before we get to the book i want your thoughts on the machete-wielding professor. >> let me tell you something very simple. i've been a prosecutor, judge and d. a. for over three decades last night the reporter who had the machete held up to his neck in a hallway, knocked on the door politely, she came out with a machete, so let's get over the fact he was not in her space, that's number one. number two, take the video. give it to a prosecutor. take it to court. make an opening statement. i charge the jury on what the law is, send them into deliberate and that's it. i do not need his testimony. he could only blow the case if he came in and said oh, no, you know, we planned it together. that is a crime on tape. you put it before a jury. that's the end of it. stuart: don't you find it incredible that a professor at an american university would do that kind of thing and then take out a machete? >> no. stuart: its come to this? >> no, i don't find it incredible because stewart you were just talking about it.

not for covid we would not have known what's going on in our schools let alone in our lower schools but we know the universities had been indoctrinating young students. she said you're triggering my students. you know, you're targeting them and triggering them. what are you talking about? did you ever hear the first amendment, free speech? they obviously haven't. stuart: got to get to the book. >> okay. stuart: this is a prime importance to us right now. i'll hold it up "crimes against america." are you going to include what the fbi has been up to recently? >> i don't think there's any question, stuart, other than the fbi has to be revamped. when jim comey came out as head of the fbi and said no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute hillary, well that was not his job. when we now know it was the result of the durham report, hillary clinton made up that dossier. she told barack obama and joe biden she was going to do that to get the press off her e-mail scandal. james comey went before congress and perjurerred himself in front of congress and no one has been prosecuted so now americans are like we've got two systems of

justice. not for the rich and the poor, but for the left and the right and that's why i write "crimes against america." you can get it on amazon. stuart: i'm scanning the contents here. honestly, it sounds like you're saying this country, our entire country, is one big crime scene. >> it is. that's why i called the book " crime against america." look, we are no longer a sovereign nation, stuart. we are literally a globalist landing spot with benefits where everybody comes in. not invited we didn't ask them to come we don't know who they are and they expect, they demand the benefits that we give them. education, medication, housing. we've got them in new york city, adult males in gyms where kids are being told you've got to go out in the street. we've got half of the hotels in new york city filled with the illegals. how can we afford this? how long does it go on? when is enough enough and i haven't even talked about the drugs and the drug cartels. i haven't talked about the fact that the fbi is literally a political weaponized operation.

you call parents concerned about a child being molested a domestic terrorist? you send the fbi to talk to parents? you've got a criminal justice system. this is my wheelhouse, where you say that we're not going to prosecute crime. law and order is not what we want. they want anarchy and chaos. we've got prosecutors who care about the criminal, not the victim. this is not the america that our founding fathers intended. stuart: i'm buying it. well i've got it free but i'll read it. >> okay. stuart: america is a crime scene judge that's terrific stuff. thank you very much indeed. >> thank you for having me. i appreciate it. stuart: a real force. >> you know what? we need a good argument and a footnote it's in the book. crimes against america. stuart: if you're not careful you'll come back on the show. >> i could do it. you never know. stuart: you never know. >> [laughter] stuart: we are going to be watching you on the five. >> the five, everyday. stuart: great program. 5:00 eastern time only on fox. stick around for this one, judge , if you like. it's the wednesday trivia question. arlington national cemetery sits on land which used to belong to
