this orlando woman spent five months in jail for a two days sentence because a judge forgot to sign her release. the situation under investigation. this bull in china on a rampage on a highway in china. the driver appearing to be okay. >> lucky guy. thanks for joining us. "fox & friends" starts now. >> have a good day. >> bye. good morning. it's tuesday, january 28. i'm elisabeth hasselbeck. the president said he has a phone and a pen and now we know he is ready to use them. his first order of business, the minimum wage. >> can he do that? remember when former secretary of state hillary clinton said this about benghazi? >> the fact is we have four dead americans. was it because of a protester was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided they would go kill some americans? what difference at this point does it make? >> today hillary is

changing her tune and now rather than angry she has some regrets. >> wow. this boat on a collision course with land. >> the land had plenty of time to get away. he hit the horn. what caused that ship to wreck? we'll find out. "fox & friends" starts right now. >> you're watching "fox & friends." that's a great way to begin your day. >> good morning, people. a great way to start your day is to give you some news that has been embargoed until 95 seconds ago. >> we sat down with our mouth shut and sitting on our hands until 6:00. >> we heard the president say i got a phone, i got a pen. well today he's going to

use his pen. i hope it's not a cheap one like this. what he's going to do is he's going to sign an executive order raising the federal minimum wage for federal contract workers. not everybody. just federal contract workers, to $10.10 an hour. this is a preview of what he's going to be talking about tonight in his state of the union. >> it sets the table according to many for a push down the line for increasing minimum wage which would require congressional approval. this, because of the pen, does not. but short of setting the table -- but sort of setting the table to make the case for something that right now has opposition. >> before he gives the state of the union address that outlines what i want to accomplish this year with congressional help, i'm going to tell you what i'm going to be doing without asking. raise the minimum wage for federal workers. following my lead, that is not going to inspire many you would think to run somebody who went on ahead. senator ted cruz.

>> the most troubling thing about the obama presidency has been a willingness to abuse power and allow the ends to justify the means. i don't see any action on the president to correct the fact of over five million people have lost their health insurance. and the pattern over and over again is just to double down. tomorrow on the state of the union he apparently is going to announce that he is sidestepping congress even more and simply going to force his agenda on the american people through executive orders. that's not the way our constitution works. that's an abuse of power. >> what the president is going to do tonight in the state of the union address is to urge congress to pass the harkin-miller bill which would raise the minimum wage. if they don't do that, i got a pen and i'm going to sign that executive order. >> right. so it begin as we're going to get everybody to work together and the ultimate promise of getting everybody on both sides of the aisle to pass

everything in a unified manner to it has become if you don't, then i will. >> to an ultimate promise to an ultimatum. >> charles krauthammer was brilliant on this. he said what is this really all about? take a listen. >> he's going to eliminate the article 1 of the constitution which says that legislation comes from congress. this is how they do it in venezuela, cuba and other places. he waves a pen, shows it on twitter and says i will rule from the pen. what makes it sort of pathetic is it sounds like a tough threat and it is unconstitutional. it is not how you ought to be the president of the united states. but in the end he really has -- there's very little he can do. the only things a president can do with a pen executive orders are fairly limited, with one exception. that's e.p.a. and using the e.p.a. to shut down entire industries. >> like he's already done

extreme damage in those areas, many which are republican held. let's talk about somebody else that could be running for president. the worst kept secret in the country, that hillary clinton is odds on favorite to get the democratic nomination. she's asked wherever she goes and she is going everywhere is she actually going to run? not many people are surprised when she says "i don't know." but i am surprised about what she said when she was asked about libya and benghazi. >> she was in a q & a yesterday. she was asked about benghazi. she was vague about presidential issues and actions going forward in 2016 but this is what she said when asked about what her regrets are. >> you know, you make these choices based on imperfect information, and you make them to, as we say, the best of your ability but that doesn't mean there's not going to be unforeseen consequences, unpredictable twists and turns.

my biggest regret is what happened in benghazi. it was a terrible tragedy losing four americans to diplomats, and now it's public so i can say two c.i.a. operatives. >> you know what's curious about that is last time we saw her talk about it, she seemed angry. what difference does it make? apparently it makes a lot of difference. and for her to admit there down in new orleans in front of 4,000 car dealers that she has regrets about it, suddenly it makes it seem as if she's admitting to republicans who have been slamming her and the administration for the past 16 months, she's admitting they've got a point. it was bad. >> very true. on top of that, it also begs the question of a follow-up question. at the car dealers association especially when the guy wasn't going to sit up. you see him sitting there, looks like he's an ottoman

and about to get a nap. but questions about what about the youtube video? if he was a good friend how do you feel about the fact there was no backup brought in there? when you pushed the president to get into libya, did you not understand they would need a battle plan after qaddafi was out of thed. this brings up a host of questions. >> it brings up the fact that somebody could have possibly been done to change the outcome. you don't regret something that would have been different. what specifically do you regret? some noted on-line the cavalier approach that was vague seemed quite to the contrast to her emphatic "what difference does it make" causing concern. >> the other interesting thing she did say at the car dealer association yesterday was she has not driven a car in 18 years, which some people are going wait a minute, that is in the prepared remarks? kind of seem aloof, kind of

seem like you've been chauffeured everywhere for the past two decades. but she also revealed her first car was cutlass and didn't work very well. what she would do during college was take the battery out of her car and put it in her dorm room. >> resourceful woman even at a young age. we have a guest at the state of the union tonight. >> the father of patty wood. >> i didn't know you have a birthday, heather nauert? >> how did you know that? >> happy birthday. >> happy birthday. i thought the 80's party was to celebrate the 80's because you loved it. >> i'll show you pictures. good morning to you all. listen to this story. pretty bizarre. the n.s.a. knows what you are up to and a little angry bird may be to blame for it. there are new documents that show that the agency

used cell phone apps to access your personal information. the n.s.a. reportedly targeted the game angry birds along with google maps to get information about a person's sexual orientation, marital status, age, et cetera. but the n.s.a. says it doesn't profile everyday americans in its foreign intelligence mission. we'll keep you posted. passengers told to leave behind their bags and get out. a pilot of an american eagle flight telling people to head for the exit at chicago's o'hare airport. down the emergency chutes went from that plane and according to reports the pilot thought he saw a fire on board. the airline says the captain did the right thing by being cautious. 83-year-old new york's congressman charlie rangel getting ready to hang up his hat but not for another two years. the democrat who served 40 years in the house says he'll retire from congress in 2016 just as president obama is leaving the white house. that would make him 85 years old at his retirement.

the pentagon condemning afghanistan's plans to set free dozens of prisoners, calling them dangerous insurgents who have american blood on their hands. the state department voicing concerns as well. listen. >> the 37 detainees are dangerous criminals against whom there is strong evidence linking them to terror-related crimes including the use of improvised explosive devices, the largest killer of afghan civilians. they pose a threat to the afghan people and are being released without investigation and without the use of the criminal justice and in accordance with afghan law.

>> this comes as a new report is now released that president hamid karzai believes the u.s. government is behind insurgent attacks designed to undermine his government. can the u.s. trust afghanistan any more to help stop the spread of terrorism? more importantly, can they trust car -- hamid karzai? let's ask a washington colonel. what is behind the release of these men who are going to come back and kill karzai? >> karzai is trying to play both sides against the middle, have list cake and eat it too. he wants to appear as if he's trying to appease the taliban trying to be inclusive. you and i know this is like a fishing contest, catch and release. at least 17 of these guys were caught with i.e.d. material at least to engage in killing folks. we're not saying this is a death warrant. we're not turning people in to be killed.

we're turning them in for trial or for them to be worked through the afghan process of justice. that's what is most frightening here. the very system we've helped establish is now being used in a very obtuse way to basically release these folks back into the environment where they'll kill our guys and continue to go after the federal government. >> colonel, they already voted. their parliament said we want american forces to stay, 10,000 to 15,000. let's work out the details. karzai is the only one stopping it. are we just going to pull out? by the way, he term limited out, he's gone any way. he goes to london with the money and the taliban come back. are we going to allow this to happen? >> ryan crocker, going through his hearings talked about the afghan government. particularly the afghanistan surge is i. that is what we're seeing here. we can't trust the government, can't trust taliban. how do we support this?

we want to support the afghan people. i believe karzai enriched himself off the back of the afghan people. it is shameful. with that said we've got to find a way to sustain the gains we made which are very fragile. you and i talked about this a number of times. i think the general is doing the best with what he's got on the ground. the question becomes how do we deal with a mad man? i think karzai because he sees what's coming, he knows the moment we leave his life will be measured in days, probably not weeks and he's probably going to want to get out of there. >> what does it mean to a family memoir rid about their kid -- to a family member worried about their kid serving in afghanistan? what should they take from these comments and these actions? >> first off, the president hugely messed up the strategy. never tell an adversary where you're going, how many v?)ñq going with and w8qx"xqwesflg+fv:nywgttrat

quick headlines. a victory for second amendment rights. the n.r.a. bringing back the nation's largest outdoor gun show. it was canceled last year when organizers announced sales of assault weapons would be banned. it returns this saturday in pennsylvania. and in iowa, a bill has been approved that lets

active duty members buy guns without a permit. right now any person buying a handgun must first get a permit and meet certain requirements. if the bill does pass active duty members, military members would be able to skip that proz. process. you know that little device you carry around to text and call your friends, your phone, might be sharing secrets about you that you probably are not aware of. companies around the -- across the country are using sensors that connect to the wi-fi in your cell phone to track you as you go throughout your daily lives. >> scary stuff. joining us to discuss this is director for the center for technology on products for consumer privacy. hearing stories about how we're being tracked. a company called turnstile in toronto has sensors all over the place that as you go around with your wi-fi and your phone, it track where you're going, where you're shopping.

this is where you're headed. >> we've known for years about how apps in your phone track access information and your location. we heard about how the n.s.a. started to look up that information from apps. now if you have your wi-fi turned on in your phone it sends out a signal every once in a while saying i'm phone 1234 looking for wi-fi and that can be picked up. and stores can say there's phone 1234 and watch over time and find out you went to victoria's secret earlier or went to this church earlier in the day. our real life movements are being tracked by our phone. >> they can tell where you have been with that phone? they can probably tell what you have google searched on your phone. they know who you have called. what the hell do they need that information for? >> the location tracking is mostly about analytics. they want to know how people use their stores, whether someone is over

here looking at, whether people who go to this part of the store end up buying stuff or not. those companies probably don't have access to your calls or your search but they can sell your information to data brokers. that information could later be combined without your knowledge or permission. >> the potential for personal information, so many purchases being made on-line, so many on your phone, we're talking about pharmaceutical purchases, medical history. this is getting into territory that seems as though it should be protected. >> yeah. the united states is one of the, has the weakest privacy laws in the world. most countries around the world have pretty good laws. you have to tell people what you're collecting about them. give them choices. don't collect data you don't need. in the united states we don't have those protections. the federal trade commission enforces the basic consumer protection law which says don't lie to people and so a lot of companies take that to say

i'm not going to tell you anything so i don't get caught in a lie or they get broad and say we're going to collect whatever we want and do whatever we want to it. so it is hard to find what companies are collecting and what they're doing with it. >> we've got tips so people can protect themselves. go into your phone, turn off your wi-fi, put it in airplane mode. be careful of the apps you install. if you put in angry birds, the n.s.a. is going to know all about you. delete your browsers, cookies. i think the last one is one of the most important one because if you don't delete your history and the cookies in there, it is like having a pocket full of change that somebody is going to stick your hand in your pocket and take it all out. >> we know if the laws aren't going to protect us, we can do simple things daily that will keep our information more protected. thank you. >> we should point out before we started that segment, elisabeth and i both cleaned our cookies.

>> nice and chilly. been a tough january and remains so across the northeast and parts of the midwest. in the midwest you are looking at temperatures currently below zero in many states. in the city of chicago you have the current temperature of 11 degrees below zero, 14 degrees below zero. factor in the winds and look at these wind chill temperatures, 26 below in the city of fargo. bundle up. dangerous conditions with frostbite and hyperthermia a concern. your high temperatures not better in memphis and kansas city. you are going to remain below freezing. across parts of the gulf coast typically you think of much warmer weather but we have winter storm warnings in effect from texas to the carolinas where we are expecting snow and ice mixing in. higher accumulations should be across eastern carolina where more than six inches

of snow are possible. let's head back inside. >> 25 minutes before the top of the hour. a frosty super bowl xlviii. for the first time there's going to be cold conditions. how will that impact the game? >> we're going to ask one of the very best, dan marino. >> how are you doing? >> good to see you. >> one time i was here you had me standing up. the other time we were at the couches over there. i like it. it makes you guys look good. >> you heard maria molina, who by the way, is going to be excited that you're here, the weather. from a quarterback perspective you're talking about the ball being wet and possibly freezing. what does it mean? >> it does for all players. i don't care if you're playing in freezing weather or like in the teens, it's

tough, as far as the ball is concerned, for me if it just snow or doesn't snow 10 or 12 inches it is not that bad. it's pretty good for a quarterback because you can throw it easier in the snow because your receivers know where you're going. i enjoyed throwing the football in the snow a little bit but it is going to impact the game. the wind and wet rain, if it is like that the ball becomes hard to handle. >> i'm wondering from your perspective if the seattle defense is one of the best you've seen. to think of what they did throughout the year. to think they stopped san francisco the way they did. we watched them throttle and frustrate guys. >> they are a physical football team. last year they were the same way playing defense pete caroll loves. man to man on the outside. it is going to be a great matchup. peyton manning. points, yards, all that stuff against the number

one defense in the league. that is the matchup right there. >> how often do you think about your super bowl appearance and the fact you didn't win? >> it comes up at the super bowl believe it or not. i still, i believe i'm still the youngest starting quarterback to ever play in that game so it was a long time ago but at the same time i thought i would be in it quite more times. it didn't happen. >> one thing, you know -- >> quite more is not a word. >> knew exactly what you meant. >> we've never played in a super bowl. the closest we get is brian and he'll be shivering out there. we all get to watch the super bowl. what is interesting is with football season, you're all about the food. for super bowl sunday, if you're on a diet, we'd like to have a beer, like to have drinks, like to have nachos. >> why not? have fun if you can,

especially if you're tailgating, at home, whatever that may be, as far as nutri system, they will tell you monday after the super bowl is the second biggest day people start diets. during the season people put 10, 15 pounds on and then afterward, you get back on the program. >> one in four football fans gain ten pounds? >> you get back on the program and get that weight off. >> i understand if people are heavy like rex ryan had to go to extreme measures. you weren't heavy. >> for guys, you can lose -- women and men lost over 50 pounds or more. but at the same time i wasn't feeling like -- >> an athlete? >> i wanted to work out more, feel better about my legs and knees. i lost 22 pounds. it was great. i know guys that lost less

than that and feel good about that. if you put a few pound back on, you can skwrufrpb -- jump back on the program. >> about feeling better? >> that is correct. >> can i get a prediction from you, dan? >> you know, i want denver to win, peyton manning because i've known him for a long time. i think it will put his career over the top if he wins. >> if they do win, peyton manning wins the super bowl ring, will he retire? >> no. he's healthy, he should play. as long as you're a healthy player and playing at a high level, this year he broke every record there is so he should play next year. >> but it is tackle football. >> and he's going to make a lot of money too. >> thank you. >> maria molina wants to

quick headlines. pot is on the menu in florida. the supreme court gave the green light to put medical marijuana on the ballot in november. if it passes florida would be the first state to approve pot for medical use. fox news reporter janna winter almost jailed for refusing to real her

sources for a story and now a shield bill to keep that from happening again just failed. the bill would have made it tougher to subpoena a reporter to reveal confidential sources. steve, your source is? >> my source is the judge. brian, today president obama issued 167 executive orders. according to the white house, not going to end there. what does that mean for the government if president obama will just use his state of the union address tonight to vow to make more executive orders if those darned congressmen don't cooperate? here right now is fox news senior judicial analyst judge andrew napolitano. we understand this was embargoed until 6:00 this morning, the president is going to sign an executive order, the first one in the latest wave of threats where he will raise the federal minimum wage to contract workers who work for the federal government to $10.10 an hour. how can he do that? >> he tried several times to get congress to raise the federal minimum wage, meaning congress would say this is the least amount of money that everybody has to be paid per hour. and congress has declined

to do it. but on his own, he raised the federal minimum wage for contractors who work for the federal government. how can he do that? congress has written legislation that gives the president that kind of leeway. but when the president does what congress just declined to do, is he really doing the right thing or is he becoming almost like a congress himself? that's the fear that those of us who monitor these things have about what he's going to announce tonight. remember last week when he said i have a pen and i have a phone, and i can use them if i can't get congress to cooperate with me. he can only go so far with that pen and that phone. he can veto, of course. but when he starts enacting executive orders, which basically tell the executive branch of government how he wants them to work, if he does so in a way that frustrates or changes or substantially modifies the law congress has written he's becoming a congress unto himself. >> we talked about it on this program. he's done that with

obamacare. let's look at notable executive orders and actions. he sealed presidential orders in 2009. in 2010, delayed obamacare. that's happened 20 times as well. changed deportation policy for illegal immigrants. that's the dreamer thing. and direct the government to prepare for climate change. >> changing deportation policy, whatever you think of the legal rights of immigrants should be, his changes were so profound, there were pages and pages and pages of changes that he wrote which effectively changed the law by saying if you're here illegally i'm not going to deport you unless you do this, this, this and this. and those four there's he made up. not the congress. we are in danger of the president trying to make law rather than just enforce law which is what the constitution says the president is supposed to do. >> if he change the law to the point where they need more money to run the new changes that is not going

to happen because the money has to come from congress. >> theoretically yes but he does have friends at the federal reserve. >> i've got to ask you about something we've been covering on fox. the little sisters were being compelled under obamacare to provide prescriptions and contraceptives for women who work for them. they said we stand stridently against that and now the supreme court extraordinarily has acted in their behalf. >> you used the exact right word. extraordinarily. it's absolutely unique, extremely rare for the supreme court to grant an injunction meaning before they read the case, before they hear oral argument they predict which side is going to win and decide whether or not they should rule right away. they did that with the little sisters of the poor. they said it is more likely than not that you will win, more likely than not that the mandate that requires you, roman catholic nuns, to make abortion,

sterlzation, aougt -- euthanasia for those who work for your order as unconstitutional. >> perhaps a preview of coming attractions. judge, thank you very much. >> thank you. have a good one. >> you as well. ten minutes before the top of the hour. coming up, first they mocked greg abbott for being in a wheelchair in texas. now some people are saying he's making up the wheelchair thing. and they want him to prove that he needs a wheelchair. we're not kidding. that story coming up. your comments poured in on this story yesterday. the way to keep your wife happy, guys. stay longer at work. is that true? see, happy wife right there. there's no husband. ♪ ♪ [ male announcer ] campbell's homestyle. ♪

welcome back. a happy wife means a happy life, right? so what's the secret to keeping your other half truly happy? according to a new study, all you have to do, guys, is stay at work. is that true? joining us now is the psychologist, and a psychotherapist. they're going to have a conversation about why it matters and what the study covered. it was a long study, 1979 to 2004, researchers studied 4,000 middle aged men and women. what they found was that the longer a guy worked, the happier the wife. so why? >> it's intuitive to me. when i spoke to a lot of people about it, they said, well, of course that makes sense because

the men are really contributing financially to the family and the wives feel very taken care of. so i think they wanted to look at a study just to identify what exactly is going on and why women and men might be happier this way. >> is this about eliminating worry? >> i think so. absolutely. because here now you have the provider, right? but i think a lot of women for the most part appreciate the fact that they have a partner who may be into that stereotype role of working and even though they may have their own careers and so on, we do have this image of the man going out and hunting and doing all of those things. >> providing? >> and providing. >> i think it translates as feeling loved and two couples really work collaboratively together. let's face it, if you have more finances coming in to the home and you respect your husband who is doing well in the world, you're able to really take care of yourself in a way that you would not otherwise. the women in the study were able

to go out to lunch with their friends, able to work out and feel better about their bodies. >> all the things that robbie does every single day while her husband is out work. >> i keep him working! >> here is the thing t did say husbands were 50-plus hours a week, the women were the healthiest and happyist. it didn't bode well when women started working. >> the more women work, the less happy? >> i do think that we will get there. but women tend to feel resentful when they're work very hard and they always have two jobs. they come back and they still have to cook and clean up. >> the guys are resuspectsful, too, because now they have to do more housework and don't do it well. they tell the guys, well, you didn't wash with hot water. you used cold water. i think the key thing here is this whole idea, they studied middle-aged couples. let's face it, by the time you become a middle aged couple, you don't want to see each other as

much! please go to work. >> you think it's more the space? >> i have to say, too, i don't think it's so concrete because if you have a man that is working to get away from his wife and does not attend to her emotionally, i don't think it's going to matter how many hours that man is working because still a woman wants to feel loved and taken care of and attended to. >> i agree with you. >> in some cases, working with the right mind set can help a woman. >> guys have two jobs, working on the outside and work your wife and make sure you love her. >> okay. i think we're okay with that message. we want to know what you think out there. did the hours matter? is just a minute of love enough to cover a week of long hours at work. thank you both so much. >> thank you. >> coming up, do you want to go to a great college without going broke? stick around. we've got a list of the schools that get you the best bang for your buck. pay attention to that. plus, most people will not be going to the super bowl.

then he's going to go ahead and highlight, look, we've got to do this for not only federal contract workers, but everybody, congress. are you on board? and half the hall will say no. it will cost jobs. >> what about setting the tone? the state of the union, the last consequential year i have in my administration arguably and now you want to get people on the same page to do something you haven't done in six years and they gather together and get momentum behind him. why set the tone by setting this out? we knew as of 6:00 a.m. this morning and say i'm doing this without your permission and without your nod of approval and then i'm going to speak to the nation tonight. louis gohmert of texas spoke out about the president's record. >> he has helped 12.5 million out of poverty since he's been president, but he's pushed 13.5, something like that, in. he's pushed nearly a million more into poverty than he's helped get out. that's not a good ready to talk about. >> the president will just say i

had the worst recession since the great recession. >> he'll blame bush. >> sure. mitt romney was also discussing how ineffective this president has been. but he also has some hope for how he can turn it around and this is what he said. >> this guy is the president of the greatest country on earth at a time when america is sliding internationally, sliding economically, where people are hurting, where there are more poor in this country, the number of people on food stamps exploded. the number of people in the middle class having a hard time making ends meet are happening under his watch and i want him to help turn the country around. i want to see him become more effective in leading the process in washington to the extent washington can help. >> one of the things is it's going to be hard for him to talk about economic problems without actually taking the blame for the situation we're in. this is going to be his sixth state of the union address. what's interesting is according to the "washington post," i

believe, this morning talked about how a number of democratic strategists and lawmakers as well have said, mr. president, you keep talking about income inequality. it's great idea, but it sounds so academic. you got to make it simpler. so they're going to talk about lifting the minimum wage. he's going to talk about immigration reform, something else that he has not been able to get done so far. >> senator schumer said something that i've never agreed with him more. he said the american people are more concerned with how they are doing as opposed to how somebody else is doing when it comes to income inequality. simply put, we're going to raise taxes on the wealthy will not be the kind of answer that satisfies the middle class. the party that can figure out the policies that work for the middle class will be the party that's going to be successful. and blaming somebody, the rich blaming the poor for having handoutout social security not going to get anybody anywhere. the majority of respondents in a

poll say they want to hear about job creation, early childhood. down at the bottom was minimum wage. that's what the president is leading with. >> the fear that goes along with raising the minimum wage at times is that it forces some employers then, especially in smaller markets and businesses, to then cut back on the people they employ. there is a great ere right now. some believe if he doesn't get congress behind him on the federal minimum wage increase, then he will sort of set the table here and say hey, if you can't do it, i am. and then it will sort of lay the groundwork for putting pressure on a minimum wage increase across the board. >> so the president is going to be speaking tonight at 9:00 o'clock. you will see the coverage kick off five minutes before 9 with bret baier tonight. let's talk politics in texas. there is going to be a new governor next go round. greg abbott would like to get it on the republican side. wendy davis, famous for that ten-hour filibuster in austin on abortion, she would like to get

in on the democrat side. this has been ugly from the davis side. we detail that had a little bit. now it's gotten particularly atrocious, though, because some supporters of wendy davis have gone on-line and they have suggested that greg abbott, who has been a paraplegic since 1984, when an oak tree fell on him when he was out in the neighborhood, he does not really need that wheelchair. they're suggesting he's faking it. he was asked about these wheelchair truthers last night with greta. >> i happen to be in a wheelchair because of an accident that left me needing to use a wheelchair that crushed my spine. but then what happened has gone viral over the last couple of days because these so-called truthers have come out questioning whether or not i really need to use a wheelchair despite the fact that i've been in one for 30 years now.

i think i know why they are doing this, greta. that's because senator davis knows that if she has to run on the issue in the state of texas, that's a loser for her. she supports obamacare. i'm against obamacare. i'm for energy production. she's for embracing the obama style epa practices in texas and so she's a dead loser on the issues that matter most to texans. so her only hope is to get caught up in all these kind of ridiculous arguments that are taking place right now. >> here is the quote from the "dallas morning news." poor wendy has to run glens a guy in a whole chair who might or might not need one to get around and we have never gotten the true story of how he ended up there and how much money he made in the lawsuit. what kind of focus is that? >> unexpected ugliness at this point, considering that the truth that was coming out of wendy davis' story we reported earlier and then the behind the scenes camera scene from her team knocking him really just

going against anyone with any sort of disability was shocking to see and truly ugly to watch. and this, i don't think anyone would have expected the questioning of whether or not he needs to have a wheelchair. >> well, it is crazy. all got started when the "dallas morning news" did an investigation and wendy davis' story sounds incredible t can't be true, can it? as it turns out, big parts of it not true. that's what got this all going. what do you think about the very latest on this whole wheelchair birther, commentser thing? e-mail us, facebook us, twitter us as well. we'd love to hear what you think on this tuesday morning. coming up straight ahead, staying uninsured is cheaper than obamacare for the so-called young invincibles. will the president still try to sell it to them at tonight's state of the union? stuart varney is next. he knows about being invincible. >> and something at the movie theater could be getting shorter and you're probably going to be happy about this. stay tuned. >> the line for beer?

here is a jaw dropper. for 86%, that's how many young people could be getting shafted by obamacare. 86%. that's close to 100. according to a new study by the american action forum, six out of seven uninsured young adults, the so-called young invincibles, obamacare needs to survive to sign up would pay less if they stayed uninsured and paid out of pocket than if they were to enroll in government exchanges. will the president still try to convince young people to empty their pockets for the program in tonight's state of the union? you got to figure, stuart varney, yes.

>> well, he must keep pushing for young people to sign up because if young people don't sign up, there is a death spiral for obamacare, the financials don't work. just for a second, look at it from the other way around, supposing your 20 something, 30 something and you're currentsly uninsured. it makes no sense financially for you to sign up. if you don't sign up, you're going to pay a fine. ninety-five dollars. you only pay that this year if you're getting a tax refund. so it's not really a fine. if you do get sick and you're uninsured, you just sign up then. sign up when you are sick, that's what you do. >> it's not really a fine. it's really a tax, is what it is. and it's little this year, but it's going to get bigger and bigger to try to -- because there are no teeth in this thing. >> there is no teeth. you don't have to write out a check for $95 and send it to the treasury. you only pay it and they only take it out of a tax refund that was coming to you. >> there was something that was said yesterday by jim moran who is one of the president's staunchest democrats from the

commonwealth of virginia yesterday. this is bad news for the president. he said they're not getting enough young people to sign up to make this thing work, which portends if you don't get enough people to sign up, then what? >> if you don't have -- this is very important. young people. if the young people don't sign up, they're young, they're healthy, they don't make many claims on the insurance pool, if you don't get enough of them, you can not finance all the older people who are indeed signing up and who will take a lot of money out of that pool. the whole thing falls to pieces financially if youngsters do not sign up. >> we heard from the ceo of aetna last week and he was talking and he was talking about how they need the young invincible people to pay for the older people. so far a majority of the people who are signing up, or a lurity, are older and sicker people. if that continues, when it's time to figure out how much the premiums are going to be next year, people are going to have sticker shock and aetna might

have to drop out of the exchanges. >> yes. it is literally falling to piece. you have to go back to it. it's a rotten deal for young people to sign up financially that is. i'm not talking politically or morally. i'm talking financially. it is a lousy deal to sign up for something which you might not want. you don't think you need, you don't have to pay a fine if you don't sign up. it's really a rotten financial deal. that's why people are not signing up. >> i was talking to somebody over the weekend in kansas. he said my premium would be this much. but it's got a $6,000 deductible. so it's going to cost me at least 8 or $9,000 out of his pocket before anything is covered. and he's not going to sign up. >> plus the monthly premiums. >> stuart varney is going to be talk being this and so much more, two hours from right now over on the fox business channel. thank you. next up, big news for our nation's military members and their right to bear arms. we will tell what you has just been approved. then change the channel with the

across the country this winter. they're called snow rollers and they're cylinders made of snow with a hollow center. you can see it there on your screen. pretty cool stuff. they're created by the wind. the wind actually rolls that into that shape, similar to how we would roll a snowball to make a snow man. that's been happening across states like pennsylvania and also in ohio. now the weather conditions because those snow rollers are not going to be melting any time soon. we are looking at temperatures remaining well below freezing across so many states, especially in georgia. atlanta, below freezing. 25 right now. well below zero in cleveland. minneapolis, and also in the city of chicago. when you factor in the wind, the windchills now across portions of the midwest are just brutal. colder than 30 degrees below zero for some of you. otherwise your high temperatures forecast to remain in the single digits in chicago and cleveland and in the south, we actually have winter storm warnings in effect. snow and ice forecast today into tomorrow. let's head back inside. >> thank you very much. joining us here on the curvy couch, music legend, ladies and

gentlemen, give it up, meatloaf. >> now, now, now. no, no, let me explain to you, i really -- we're doing vegas. that's what i'm promoting obviously. when they first did the ad mats for the promotion, they put superstar. i made them take it down. then they put legend, i made them take it away because i don't like being called a superstar or legend. >> what would you prefer? >> meat. >> okay. >> what about expert on love? >> that they can do that. >> las vegas expert on love. >> this recent study -- >> i'm a sex god, elisabeth. >> we have the footage. >> that's why we're asking you 'cause they say if men work 50-plus hours, the women are happier. >> you're in a happy marriage of 13 years. is this true? >> my wife hates it when i'm not home. >> really? is that what she says? >> oh, yeah.

i say that it's bs that the wife is happier. the only reason the wife would be happier if she doesn't have time to get back from the motel. >> what are you talking about? >> you have just poopooed a study that said -- >> that's the problem right there. >> what is the problem? >> the middle age men and women. because if you go around and actually talk to middle-aged men and women, you'll lose your mind. a group -- how many? >> 4,000. >> you would be insane! okay, can you imagine how many different opinions they actually have in there? >> 4,000. >> look at your marriage and how much hours you work. >> i'm gone for a long time. when i come home, i'm exhausted and i want to stay in bed. i don't want to do anything. my wife goes, oh, yeah.

yeah. that's right. that's right. every time. you come home, i get nothing but leftover meatloaf. >> we determined something, though. you may be a sleep a lot, which would count as working or away from your wife. but what are your sleeping hours? >> i chat -- i don't talk after shows, but anyway. if i'm lucky, 4:00 o'clock. 8:00 o'clock rolls around, i'm freaking out going go to sleep. >> with a time do you get up for the day? >> in vegas, the show starts at 7. and i normally -- if we're doing concerts and going on at 8:30, i'll show up at 3:00 o'clock in the afternoon. this is true. i walk the entire arena, from the top to the bottom, and all the way around because i want to see the sight lines. i want to know that everybody that's bought a ticket can see.

>> that is so cool. >> and to make sure that what we do on stage that we're opened up enough for them to see. >> so tell me about this whole show, because you're more than just a singer. you've said the term rock on. it's a rock on show. what does that mean? >> i did? >> yeah. >> i'm senile. >> i'm not going to quote you anymore. >> because i probably said it. i just don't remember it. >> meat, take a look. there is the show right there. tell us about it. >> it's a piece of it. i get to do a lot of improv. i worked -- i started as an actor, so my roots are actor roots. i've never said that before. that's a silly phrase. i was lucky enough -- i studied under john belushi. gilda radner. then i took overt show, national lampoon show.

it's all improv. so i learned from the best. i took improv in college, but unless you take it to a practical experience, what you learn in college is like stupid because unless -- you're better off not going to -- i shouldn't say that. parents are going, what's he doing! >> $50,000! >> internships and practical experience, hands on. >> that's what you do at planet hollywood? >> no. i'll go real fast 'cause i'm not concise. i get to do a lot of characters. i open the show with a character called rabbit. he's from longview, texas and he talks like this. oh, no, i'm sorry. i know you expect a las vegas show but i ain't got one. i know i should be like cirque de soleil, but i'm not. i ain't got a juggler. no. and then everything that i say i don't have is behind me. >> of course. >> then you'll break into some of the classic songs? >> we into -- the next song is

"hot patootie" ." >> at the end of the show, you're exhausted, you're flat out, you're done. >> my rule of thumb is this: if i have any energy left to do anything else but crawl back to my room, i haven't done my job. >> if you don't -- a man dedicated to his work. >> he doesn't like the term legend, but he puts on a heck of a show. he starts his residency in vegas on february 13 at planet hollywood. thank you very much for dropping by. >> you're welcome. remember, wives, get close to home. okay? >> go home. >> they are going to love your show. thank you. >> coming up on this tuesday, justice system going up in smoke and an inmate being allowed to leave jail to smoke pot. the story coming up. >> and reagan's state of the union speech in 1998 considered

now. number one myth, written by the president and a speech writer. it's not true? >> not true. what happens is the president and his speech writer sit in a room with a lot of close people to him. the chief of staff is there, maybe the secretary of state. ideas are filtered in from friends. that's why sometimes you get this potpourri of ideas in a state of the union address. 74 issues are covered in 74 minutes and nothing really gets accomplished. >> but i just saw picture of the president holding his forehead. it looks like he was writing it himself. but i'm very gullible. it's a lengthy laundry list, is that true or false? >> it can be. if you look at the clinton state of the union addresses, they tend to be this long laundry list of things. if you look at the reagan speeches, they're much better because ronald reagan would say, i've got three themes i want to cover tonight. if they didn't fit in one of the themes, it was out. so his speeches seemed more organized and morocco -- more

coherent. >> another big myth is that it makes an impact. most of the legislation proposed never gets enacted and a lot of times the presidents don't really get behind what they actually put forward. >> that's true. it took a long time for health care to get passed. that started with clinton and it was only recently that health care went through. gun control has been on the agenda for a long time and it's not gotten anywhere. we've had immigration reform on the agenda since 1986. it's not gotten anywhere. there is a lot of stuff ha bounces up in the state of the union address and nothing happens. >> now let's talk about a speech that worked. let's flashback to 1988. here is ronald reagan. >> year of the 13 appropriations bills due by october 1st. none of them made it. then along came these behemoths. this one was two months late and

it's 1057 pages long, weighing 14 pounds. >> why are they laughing? they did it. the visuals work when they're used? >> you know, he is the only one i know that used a prop right there with him and it was just terrific that night. it was hysterical that this supposedly old man was lifting up these huge stacks and dropping them down in front of everybody and it really got people's attention and brought in to focus those continuing resolutions this which are ridiculous and the president concluded his remarks by saying, if you send me another one, i will veto it. it was just a great night for reagan. >> since reagan, people look into the gallery. tonight we're expecting the president will have people up there. there will be nine unemployed people sitting with various democrats and we understand sean hannity will be with congressman louis gohmert. so that will make all of this special.

thanks so much. congratulations on your book "confessions of a speech writer." >> thank you. >> i know you'll be watching. meanwhile, coming up, the president expected to talk jobs and economy at tonight's state of the union address. if you're one of the millions of americans out of work, this next segment is for you. you have to wait 'til tonight. cheryl casone has been brought out of bed and brought here with five companies that could actually hire you today. that's her meeting elisabeth. but first on this date in 1985, foreigner had the number one song in america called "i want to know what love is." by the way, i want to know what love is still. you, too, john? ♪ ♪ wisest kid, how can i get them to take a break?

"fox & friends" wants to get you hired. that's why cheryl casone from the "fox business" network is here. she has five companies hiring right now. >> good morning. we're finding jobs. it's tough. i'm not going to lie. but the first company i'm really excited about, because this will be their busy season is pwc. this is accounting, taxes, auditing for companies. this is mostly going to be college graduates. i know college kids are struggling. we've been looking for work for them. 14,000 jobs. 9,000 of that direct kids out of college and 5,000 will be professionals. some of the older accountants, bean counters. my sister is one. >> presently hiring. 'tis the season for it. >> it is. >> and then you have gray bar? >> they do electrical and networking equipment. manufacturing. things like that. they're one of the best friendly companies that i wanted to highlight because they're looking for veterans. that's about 200 jobs

nationwide. they need drivers, people that can do sales, that can work in the warehouse, customer service. sometimes those skills translating from the battlefield to the corporate world can be difficult. but graybar wants to help veterans. retro fitness is another company? >> 'tis the season. did you do resolutions this year? >> no. i've already broken them all. this is a company, more people are going to gyms, so they need more people there. >> this is when all the fitness companies are hiring. this is a big push now. they need trainers, people to do sales. retro fit fitness is interesting. right now they're only in the northeast and new york area. they're going to expand. 19.99 a month, which is really cheap for a gym. but they've got movies that you can watch while working out. we all need a distraction at the gym. baby-sitting. you need that, too. so they're hiring. that's 1,000 to 1200 jobs. they're going to be opening

>> "fox & friends" final hour starts now. >> now that i say them out loud, my crazy ideas do sound a little too crazy. >> you're watching "fox & friends"! >> saving that right for the right time. >> and there you got al gore who today is in the news because he said that fertility impacts the weather. >> which i've said before. >> all right. >> speaking of the weather, it is cold in washington, d.c. where i believe they have already adjourned school for the day. no school down there, right, laura ingraham? >> what? oh, my gosh. i better make sure my kids are okay. i didn't know that. you're giving me information. >> i think they might be canceling it for tomorrow earlier. >> i think they called it. >> oh, my gosh. >> do you have any other school closures to go over? >> yeah, anything else? local dog pound announcements? >> here is something else local.

the president's advisor tweeted out, after months of work, stacks of memos, dozens of drafts and a very bushy beard for our speech writer, it's finally state of the union day. we just heard that the president is going to sign an executive order giving federal contract workers a 10.10 minimum wage. what do you think? >> well, i think at this point we can conclude that the president has basically given up on persuading people that his course for the country is the right course. i think for a while now, probably since he was inaugurated, the first time, the president has been annoyed with the checks on his power. we saw that with how he slid in with those recess appointments for the national labor relations board, that case at the supreme court. we saw it when harry reid worked with the white house, i'm sure on this getting rid of the filibuster, and the president rarely, if ever, speaks to conservatives. he's annoyed by the facat he

can't just kind of redistribute when he wants, prom mull gate laws when he wants to and it speaks to a real dislike of our -- almost of our whole governmental system, which again, for a lot of us who have been studying obama, looked at his past, it's kind of in line with his overall philosophy that we're kind of corrupt to the core, our whole system of government and he thought he was going to come in and right the whole thing for us by shear force of his personalities. as you can see from that nbc "wall street journal" poll and the fox news poll recently, people just aren't buying it. >> right. you know what's interesting is that i'm reading this peter baker book on the bush administration, he says president bush used to call bill clinton and express the same frustration that he feels as though everything was too broken up, too partisan and president bush did have a recess appointment with ambassador bolton. >> i think so, but the way that the nlrb appointments went, the facts were far different from the bolton appointment. i think when you have -- again,

look what president obama has done on the friday night amnesty moves, now on this federal government worker hiking their wage. you understand why a lot of people out there both have little to no respect for what's happening in washington and why people think this is truly the imperial presidency. the president wants to just be king for a day and unfortunately, this day seems like it's never ending for the american workers. >> and we're begging for transparency as it was promised to us, but the more we find out about certain things, almost more scary it gets. we're finding out about the secret abortion fee, which was forecast about four years ago and sort of a warning from some pro-life communities and organizations. but is this true that there is a hidden fee to cover abortions under obamacare? >> yeah. i don't think it was hidden. we've been talking about this for quite a long while on my radio show and i know others have written about it. it's something that, again, americans united for life and

all these other pro-life groups have been speaking about saying, guys, what they say about obamacare, whether it's you can keep your policy or oh, no, abortions aren't part of it and what is actually the reality and how it plays out in rule makes and regulations are two totally different things. okay? and i think you're seeing that as well with this abortion fee. it might not be in -- it's not with every plan, but it certainly is in some of them. and that's, i think, what the pro abortion folks, pro-choice folks demand all along. they knew that if they came out and said, well, abortion will be covered as an option, that people wouldn't be giving it its iprammatur. >> it's all covered in the vague women's health. it's all part of women's health. >> yeah. unfortunately the babies in the womb, their health isn't part of that. >> yesterday on the program we were talking about a blogger who wrote something. her name, amy glass. she wrote this blog that said, i

look down on young women with husbands and kids and i'm not sorry. she talks about essentially stay at home moms, they're -- >> overrated. don't work very hard. >> i was think being this. first of all, i don't know who this woman is. but she does represent the kind of angry core of today's feminist. it reminds me of the women studies people back in college. they seem so unhappy all the time. the only choice that they really celebrate when you get right down to it is maybe the choice to abort and maybe the choice to redistribute wealth, maybe the choice to have gay marriage or nontraditional marriage. those choices, i think they support. but other than that, they're really not for freedom or liberty or women doing what they think is best for their families

and i think we all know that two-parent families are ideally the best. look, i don't have a conventional family, so i don't wag my finger and judge anybody. but statistics are that two-parent families are the ideal and if you can't do that, you have to figure out other ways to compensate. but it's crazy. >> isn't it kind of a faux feminism for women to be attacking one another because they happen to have a different way of life or career? >> come on, you, you're working for fox. you're this beautiful, incredibly talented person. they see you as kind of someone who belongs in the smithsonian. like nobody in their right mind who is a woman should be working for this fox news, the death star. but this is the way they think. it's not the way obviously most women think. but it is interesting because we've gone a long way from betty and the feminist mystique to this. again, marriage is imprisonment. traditional lifestyles are

really enslaving women, when a lot of these women are just happier and this is the way they want to live their lives. what we really need is an economy that's growing. >> i'm not gog ask you to proceed addict the super bowl, but i'm gog ask to you proceed addict with, what if anything gets done this year? portions of immigration, tax reform, entitlement reform. what do you think gets done? >> well, what i fear will get done is an immigration, quote, reform, which ultimately makes lives for the middle class and the unemployed, the low wage workers a lot more difficult. i fear john boehner, eric cantor, paul ryan are in concert with big business, chamber of commerce types and will cut a deal with the democrats and that's going to really -- mark my words, that will divide the republican party like you haven't seen for probably seven or eight years. it's a perilous course they're on. they're going to give obama a huge life line and a huge gift. so that's what i'm concerned

about. i think republicans should basically say we can't trust this administration. they go back on their word. they go around the rule of law. we are going to explain what we're going to do for this country when we take the senate and other than that, unless the president kind of moves to the middle a little bit, we're not going to work with him. i think that's the better play. >> all right. laura ingraham, just getting ready for her radio show, starts about 15 minutes from right now. by the way, i was kidding about school out. kids got to go to school. >> oh, my gosh. i was going to get on my phone go, oh, my gosh, my kids aren't going to school. >> my goodness, that was scary. >> have a great week. see you back here next week. heather nauert, time for the news. >> you know better than that, you can't do that to a mom. >> i got her. i told her the truth. >> eventually. hope you're off to a great day. listen to this story we have. nsa knows exactly what you're up to and an angry bird may actually be to blame for it. new documents coming out that show that the nsa used cell

phone apps to access personal information. the nsa reportedly targeted angry birds, google maps and other popular apps to gain information about a person's sexual orientation and also marital status. the nsa says it doesn't profile everyday americans in its foreign intelligence mission. what do you think of that. democratic congressman charlie rangel consumed head back to his villa in the dominican republic. the canneddal plagued law maker announce he won't run in 2016. he'll be 85 years old when he calls it quits. rangel faces serious scandals, including when he failed to disclose rental income from that villa we just told you about. he was found guilty of violating house ethics rules. also new overnight, the nhl announcing it may reconsider sending players to the sochi olympics if something major happens before february 9. this means the hockey players from all countries and not just the united states may miss the olympic games. we'll keep watching that story.

fighting back, saying this is shrektive prosecution. for that now, that producer joins us right now from oklahoma city. he has produced movies like "schindler's list" and" rainman." good morning to you. >> good morning, steve. >> you know, what's going on with your friend dinesh? it looks like the government is coming after him because he made a movie critical of president obama. >> that's amazing, isn't it? you get involved in telling the truth about something and they have a tendency to come after you. >> the reason i say it looks like, he made the 2016, you guys made "2016", and now they're after him is because back in the day, john edwards, who was running for president, had a campaign donor who did exactly the same thing and he wound up with a misdemeanor, whereas dinesh has a big bail and faces

years in prison. >> right. just not right. >> what do you think is going on >> i think personally -- personally i think there is the selective persecution in this case. it's just the government going after someone that they feel is either against them or maybe just the fact that he's not for them. >> do you think the government is trying to intimidate him? >> well, i think so. i think that might be part of it. we have another film coming out on july 4, the film "america." maybe they're afraid of what the content of that film is. >> we don't have the whole movie, but 2003 have a trail -- but we do have a trailer that comes out on the fourth of july. here is a snippet. >> the defining feature of american history, we stole the country from the indians, it was their land and the white man took it by force. we sold the labor of the african

american to build the country. we stole half of mexico in the mexican war. that american foreign policy today is based on slander. >> that is quite an assessment, that america is based on stealing things and plunder. >> right. but i think the film basically takes that issue head on. in fact, i think i'm quoting dinesh regarding that. it's going to be an eye opener. i think people should certainly plan on going to the theater on july 4th. >> all right. that's when it opens. co-producer of "2016", thank you very much for joining us today from oklahoma city. >> thanks for having me, steve. >> all right. 18 minutes after the top of the hour. coming up, liberals caught making fun of a texas gubernatorial candidate for being in a wheelchair?

quick headlines. the nra bringing back the nation's largest outdoor gun show. it was canceled last year when

organizers announced sales of assault weapons would be banned. it returns saturday in pennsylvania. and military members in iowa may soon be able to buy a gun without a permit. right now while residents have to get a permit to meet certain requirements a new bill heading to the house for a vote allows active military members to skip that process. now for some fun talk. >> that's right. we've got a super bowl pregame preview with some very special guests. one of them even has the same last name as me. i have his last name. >> indianapolis quarterback and super bowl quarterback himself, matthew hasselbeck, he and chris myers are hall of fame broadcasters in their own right. they are hosting -- and i watched you yesterday -- your new show for this week "afternoon huddle" on fox sports one. >> 1 to 4 eastern. >> right. tv show from radio row. you see people working behind us as we chat and talk with different people.

>> the hasselbecks are taking over the tv industry. he's a natural. >> you feel bad you're not related to any of them? >> not yet. >> we know tim does an incredible job. breaking down the numbers as good as anybody. you seem to have made a seamless transition. but you have football left? >> right. i'm an active player. it's different. tim can get on and criticize a player or players, say hey, this guy needs to get more sacks. i can't really do that. i might be playing against them next year. >> has he ever said anything critical of his brother on tv? >> i'm sure he has. >> off camera. >> he has this fantasy football show also and he'll say, like, start him or sit him. there is times, i don't like this matchup. you need to sit this guy. talking about me. i'm not surprised. >> he doesn't hesitate criticizing the media. that comes naturally to him. >> actually you break down the

hardest position, quarterback. why players aren't having success. i got to bring you to the weather. terry bradshaw came out and said, it's freaking new york. are you kidding me? it's not like minnesota. there is a dome. detroit is a dome in the super bowl. indianapolis has a dome. why did we bring this to bad weather? i want to be nice, but i don't think you should be putting super bowls in northern cities in wintertime. terry bradshaw saying this. what do you think? >> he's freezing. >> do you agree with that? >> no, not at all. the one super bowl that i played in was in detroit, michigan. not exactly what you're thinking of your -- >> it was a dome. >> but you're still living there all week. the fans come to the game. they also come for the week of activities. a little bit like the olympics. yes, there is the event, but all festivities beforehand. so for me, we had john tish on

yesterday. it's a great city. people want to come here. i'm for it. >> the last time the seahawks were in the super bowl, you were here. as we talk about weather, leading up to the guy, injuries leading up to the game is what people are talking about. issue or not? >> i don't think so. i think both of these teams play outdoors anyway. not in the kind of cold weather in seattle and denver. i think players know what they signed up for with this kind of a game being outdoors. i think the weather could be a factor. maybe affect the broncos' offense more than anything. that's what we're looking forward to. but as far as the city being here, it's a different kind of thing for the fans. instead of the beaches and golf, there is plenty of restaurants and other things to do in new york. >> $3,000 and going to 30 degrees to watch three hours of a game and you might not know the team. >> matt, we've been working with elisabeth for about six months now. we think she's fantastic. >> how is it going? >> going well. there is a lot we don't know.

is there something you can reveal to us about her that -- >> that she doesn't want on national television. >> well, i met elisabeth, i was a junior at boston college and i was like a retreat leader and she was a freshman. >> for 48 hours. two-day trip. she was just an impresssive girl. i remember having a conversation, a group of us about her getting involved and she ended up walking onto the boston college softball team after that and shortly after that, under scholarship and shortly after was captain of the team. >> she just started bossing people around, just like that. >> that's right. >> she was really known as like the pinch runner. >> that's right. what matthew is saying i struck out a lot. >> once someone else would get on base, it would be like, elisabeth, why don't go in. >> so you met at 48 hours, at the retreat. >> matthew is like my big brother. >> how did you wind up with her brother? -- his brother? >> i think that was like a

set-up. i think my wife and i tried to set elisabeth up on a date with someone else, i think. >> this is why. matthew is a quarterback on field. but also a quarterback in life. >> it was like all these crazy things. nothing ever happens. but i think the next year they had the same summer job or something like that. small world. then she was really tight with my wife. you guys ran the boston marathon together. >> you got to marry a hasselbeck. >> no stress when the big family gets together. >> i'm going to see you tomorrow after i go to brian's radio show. >> we've got great sports. we have joe montana, bill murray will come by, kevin costner. >> any big names? >> we're working on that. >> we're interviewing football players, hall of famers, but also people that are just known for something else. >> prediction? >> you can't do it. >> why not? >> you can do it.

>> i don't know. i think something big will happen this week that will change the outcome of the game leading up. something is going to happen. >> another reason to watch the show. >> we'll be watching on fox sports. chris, you want to read this? >> this story has a lot of you talking. the way to keep your wife happy, guys, just work longer hours. we will read your comments after the break. plus -- barbecue pork, meat balls soaked in wine. we have the recipe inside for your super bowl party. stay tuned for "fox & friends." >> wow! ♪ ♪

truthers on greta last night. listen to this. >> she's a dead loser on the issues that matter most to texans and so her only hope is to get caught up in all these kind of ridiculous arguments that are taking place right now. >> abbott became disabled in 1984 when an oak tree fell on him while he was jogging after a thunderstorm. florida voters will decide in november whether or not to legalize medical marijuana after the state supreme court approved putting it on the ballot. if legalized, florida would become the first southern state to approve marijuana for medical use. joining 20 other states. folk singer and song writer pete seeger has died. ♪ this land was made for you and me ♪ >> seeger was known as the father of american folk music. "this land is your land" was a

popular hit. he was also an activist leading environmental campaigns and marching alongside dr. martin luther king, junior. his family says he died peacefully in his sleep last night at a hospital in new york city. he was 94 years old. we've been talking about this story this morning. e-mails are pouring in on this. men, you want to make your wife happy? all you have to do is work longer hours. researchers say that wives benefit the most when their husbands work more than 50 hours a week because longer hours means higher pay and that allows women to hire somebody to help clean up the house, spend time with the kids and go to the gym. so is this true? we talked about it earlier on "fox & friends." listen. >> let's face it, by the time you become a middle aged couple, you don't want to see each other as much. please go to work. please, let's have separate time. >> you think it's more the space. >> space is important! >> well, it was a good debate. the results of the study coming from a 35-yearlong study of

about 4,000 marriages. so keep sending us e-mails and tweets. brian, you got a few. >> yeah. let me see what everyone is saying. mama source, 009 tweeted this, my husband worked 12 hour shifts five to six days a week. i absolutely hate it and i don't see him much during the week. so they hate it. they're against the experts. >> another says, i get more done around the house when my husband is working. >> okay. charles bounces back and says, what about the kids? the kids suffer when dad is never around. so we'll see. 4,000 people surveyed, middle-aged couples, we have a push back here on "fox & friends." one with that story, bill hemmer. let's go to steve because he's got food that we need to know about. >> plus i have a large blue finger because the super bowl is this weekend and having the right food on hand for super bowl sunday is key. so if you don't want to spend the game in the kitchen, here is a tasty treat to make ahead of

time. maria, we're talking meatballs. >> daniel holesman and michael are co-owners of new york city's meatball shop. they join us this morning. it's not really wine. typically when i think of tailgating and football and food, i think of buffalo chicken wing, hot dogs and cheeseburgers. however, you brought us meat balls and wine. >> we brought this because we're classing up the super bowl this year. this is the california bowl, but very cold new york. nothing warms up the super bowl like a glass of wine. >> and a hearty bowl of meatball. >> let's have a drinking game. every time somebody says seahawks, you take drink. all right? seahawks. >> can we just talk about what we have here. >> please do. how do you make a meatball? >> we're talking barbecue pork meatballs and cabernet wine. nothing is better. it's a nice cab. we're sauteing these onions,

wine. >> can we at least put it next to you? a little salt. >> that's bread crumbs. you don't mind if i pepper your hands? >> let's bowl them up. >> would you mind pouring a little barbecue sauce in here? then i'm going to put extra bread crumbs in here because i need to dry these up, give them a good mix. then we're going to scoop them out. look at that. she's a professional. >> you scoop it up. >> i scoop them up and put them in the pan. pop them in the oven -- >> that is the worst looking meatball i have ever seen. >> wow. >> seahawks. >> he said seahawks. >> so the chardonnay is also really, really delicious. this goes really awesome with our turkey super balls. they're healthy. >> you guys are a lot of fun. they're the co-owners of the meatball shop here in new york

>> so what else won't you be hearing from the president tonight? fox news legal analyst peter johnson, jr., speech guy and speech writing in your background. what should we be hearing and what won't we be hearing? >> at optimism is an attitude. not a plan. you won't be hearing certain things that other americans understand about where our economy really is. let's look at the current debt. $17.2 trillion. 38% of that, accumulated during the obama administration. look at national unemployment, 6.7, brian. what's the real rate? the rate of the missing, those who said i'm giving up on trying to find work. 10.2%. who are the people that have given up on the job hunt? about half of them are between 25 and 54. so it's kind of a staggering array of statistics that the president will not be talking about tonight. let's talk about young

americans. students drowning in debt. there has been a 44% increase in the average student debt since 2007. 40 million americans are in such debt. do you know how much the federal government took in last year in profit in terms of student loans on the backs of our students? about $42 billion. >> 'cause they chose to do that. they chose to take over the students loan. >> they did. >> senator gillibrand, democrat, is pushing the united states to do some type of forgiveness for student debt. i guess the americans are to take the loss. >> it's a huge problem and crippling a the love students in our country. what's also beginning to cripple americans and they didn't realize it are the cost of obamacare. there are 20 new or higher taxes on families and small businesses. by one calculation, that's about 400 billion in tax hikes over the next ten years. according to institute, the average state is seeing 41% spike in premiums. we all know about the

cancellations. almost 6.3 million people have had their insurance canceled. >> food stamps as well, record 20% up in 2013. >> people get upset about the food stamp number, but there are more and more people who don't have food because they don't have job and people are chronically unemployed. the president will focus on those who have the most. as a distraction for an inability to change the way this economy works in this country and a way that benefits average americans, middle class americans, lower middle class americans. so blame the rich. blame the upper middle class. >> by the way, senator schumer of all people said, i find that most people don't care about the person next to them. >> i heard you talk about that. >> he's 100% right! >> americans are looking for answers that will affect them. not what the other guy or other gal has. that's a wonderful political

ploy, but is it an effective tool to improve the lives of americans? i don't think it is. there is a lot of statistics you will not be hearing from the president tonight. we've talked about some of those here. he should be focusing on those and on solutions for those issues. we're going to see a lot of executive orders and the president is basically announcing, i intend to violate the united states constitution more than any other president in our history in 2014. that's going to be my solution. >> i don't think that will be in the prompter. but that's reading between the lines. >> that's the reality. >> i know we're not supposed to care about other people, but i'm so jealous of steve and elisabeth. i want to say that. >> well, they're good looking and smart and they're lovely and then you're all those things, too, brian. >> thank you. peter, thank you so much. welcome to the living room. i have to go. 11 minutes before we're done and then hem examiner mccallum take over. next on our rundown, a crazy story. this couple traveled around the world without any problems. when they finally get home to

due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat, not caused by a heart valve problem. at first, i took warfarin, but i wondered, "could i up my game?" my doctor told me about eliquis. and three important reasons to take eliquis instead. one, in a clinical trial, eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. and three... unlike warfarin, there's no routine blood testing. [ male announcer ] don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis ifyou have an artificial hal bleing. while taking eliquis, yomay bruise more easily and it m take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. i've got three important reasons to up my game with eliquis.
