carley: rob i hope you start rocking the ponytail. jillian: i said earlier i don't care. we are all in this together. rob: no time to be vanity. carley, thank you so much. jillian: thank you, carley. "fox & friends" starts right now have. a good day. brian: here we go. a fox news alert. welcome to monday. more relief on the way. today the small business administration restarts the covid 9 loan program. the money is there. ash ash comes as several more states roll back coronavirus restrictions. steve: they do indeed. meanwhile, griff jenkins is live in washington, d.c. with a prediction for when the economy could bounce back because, griff, on this monday morning, april 27th, that's a question we all want to know. griff: it sure is, steve, ainsley and brian, good morning. this is a pivotal week for the entire country as many states are lifting the lockdown we have been living under. four more states join georgia and montana in lifting those restrictions.
3:01 am
they are arkansas, colorado, kentucky and mississippi. and another 10 are set to roll back by the end of the week which will be may 1st. they are florida, idaho, maine, tennessee, texas, oregon, and ohio. now the easing pertains largely to allowing some businesses to start reopening while maintaining existing safety precautions like social distancing and facial coverings. congressman mark green from the state of tennessee who eases things on april 30th had this to say on "fox & friends first." >> i think it is time for tennessee to go ahead and open up. and i appreciate the president's glide dance to say basically local governments and states should make that decision. griff: this as the paycheck protection program becomes available replenishing of relief bill. this time the sba says it will impose limits due to the lie demand last time. secretary mnuchin expressing confidence in a bounce back after congress' heavy spending. >> i think as we begin to reopen
3:02 am
the economy in may and june, you're going to see the economy really bounce back in july, august, september. you're seeing trillions of dollars that's making its way into the economy. and i think this is going to have a significant impact. griff: the next relief bill, called phase 4. will focus largely on state and local governments. a fight is brewing on capitol hill about that. we will hear more about this week as well. this as the nation's governors get an audience with the president today on a video teleconference. brian, ainsley and steve? brian: all right. griff. thanks so much. appreciate it. we know a lot of states are opening up to some degree. we will break it down a little bit later. one thing is pretty clear. thought chris christie's column this weekend put it succinctly. he said we need to accept life in the united states will not be without risk until a vaccine is found. northwestern people intuitively understand. this they never asked for a risk-free life. we have to take responsibility for how we move forward. we are beginning to learn the
3:03 am
rules because we have come a long way very quickly. here is what jared kushner said to steve last night. >> when we originally went into the mitigation phase, it was because we were watching what was happening in italy and we were seeing that a lot of people were going to hospitals. they didn't have enough hospitals. they didn't have enough gurneys and capacity. by slowing the spread and flattening the curve that's giving us time to develop surge hospital capacity plans. we have enough ventilators. we have a ton of spare hospital capacity now. in addition to that we have ppe. make sure we are never relying on foreign supplies again. the doctors have learned a lot more about how to treat. this i would say the most important thing is the behavioral changes. people are washing their hands more. people wear masks as we are through the transition period. we are learning how to live with this in a much better way. enable us at least people not high risk from this to start going back to work in a phased and responsible approach. brian: as places like oklahoma
3:04 am
open up, what the governor is saying look, we will do these things to give businesses an opportunity to stand up. if people don't want to go, if those businesses aren't ready to adjust to the new environment. they are not going to do business and it's not going to be effective until maybe a vaccine comes through, ainsley. ainsley: i was thinking about this over the weekend. the sun was out here in new york on saturday. so many people were out walking on the beaches. just out and about. and everyone is getting stir crazy. we are all getting a little tired of this; however, we know we have to do this to try to save more lives and to respect the government and respect other people's spaces and we want to stay safe. but if you look at the data. if you look at what apple has done, they have a way to track mobility. this report came out over the weekend that americans are starting to venture out a little more. they are able to track mobility and uptick in movement because americans are getting fed up. people are getting itchy. the weather was nice this
3:05 am
weekend steve and brian as you know. the problem is we don't want to waste the sacrifice. we have all been hold up in new york since the middle of march if not before that a month and a half. dr. birx was talking about it over the weekend and she said, look, we need a break through in the can a ronny testing and antivirus or to the antigen testing. she says the trends do give her hope that we are seeing numbers drop. she also says the social distancing we will have to carry this through the summer. listen to this. >> trying to understand what we can do as a people to ensure social distancing will be with us through the summer to really ensure that we protect one another as we move through these phases. ainsley: so, steve, we have to carry this through the summer she is saying, social distancing if you are going to the beach taking vacations you have to keep that in mind. because we have had 26 million jobs that have been lost. 26-plus. lives have been lost. we just need to make sure we are
3:06 am
stilled adhering to this so we don't get back to where we were on day one, right? steve: exactly right. but, at the same time, you understand why people are having what is now being referred to as quarantine fatigue where it's like i have been sitting in this house for six weeks. i just need to go outside. that's what's so interesting about that data, ainsley, that you talked about from apple maps where people forget that their phone knows where they are at all times. so when you leave the house they know. they can also tell when you are driving around. this particular episode was from the week of april 13th. so this was like 10 -- over 10 days ago that people were out. ainsley: good point. steve: when you look at the number of people outside in newport beach, florida over the weekend, they kept the beaches open in orange county for physical and mental health, they said. but then 40,000 people showed up. so now they are thinking about you know, maybe we better close it on the weekend.
3:07 am
nonetheless, the president is going to be meeting with. so governors later today via at phone. social distancing is what it's all about. you know, some of the things that they are going to be talking about is how can factories reopen if the suppliers are still closed? and how can parents go back to work if the schools are still closed? and how will older people be able to return to life outside when w. no vaccine at this point? it's going to require a lot of money to thition all those things the and maria sat down with the mayor of new york city and he was talking about the same thing he spoke of on this program about a week ago. and that is going forward because so many jobs have been lost. and so much tax revenue is off their books. new york city is going to need a big check from uncle sam. >> so how much money do you want? how much money do you need from the federal government? >> all the money that's been
3:08 am
lost and will be lost, lost revenue and this is true for new york and city and states around the country. we need $7.4 billion. that's how much we have lost. that's how much we need to get back. just like the federal government bailed out the airline industry to the tune of $58 billion. bail out the largest city in the country so we can restart and be able to be strong leaders in an economic revitalization in this country. steve: so it will be interesting to see exactly how much there will be for the states and local governments, brian, because mitch mcconnell last week suggested, you know what? i would support localities going bankrupt. cities can do it. states can't right now. that would, you know, bail them out of a lot of the obligations that they have already agreed to. brian: yeah. it's unbelievable. listen, i understand you want to get as much as you can mayor de blasio has to understand that the president has got 50
3:09 am
states to consider and more than just new york city to worry about. i say that as somebody who lives in new york city. also, they just got to understand that they don't use this moment to bail out pension programs who are unsustainable. this city was slamming into a 6 billion-dollar deficit. somehow massive cuts somewhere or spending would have to increase somewhere before this even happened. it's going to take a lot of direction and as steve mnuchin said it's going to take compromise. go ahead. ainsley. ainsley: a lot of these states tough keep in mind were in trouble before corona. you don't want to use the corona money to bail these states out that were in trouble because these liters didn't do the right thing and couldn't control their states or have funding for the states. you don't want to use corona money to bail these states out that were in trouble before. brian: i hear you. and hopefully we can do this in a bipartisan way and writing checks of money we don't have. keep in mind, no one is being selfish. it's just money we don't have.
3:10 am
meanwhile, we have got a presidential race that normally would be our a block every single day and maybe our b and c. it's put to the back burner to the surprise of absolutely nobody. speaker pelosi decided to endorse -- i have it here, joe biden. nancy nancy i'm proud tone doors joe biden for president. a leader hope and courage, values, authenticity and integrity. about so much at stake we need the enthusiasm and invigoration and participation of all americans. up and down the ballot and across the country. brian: we will see. probably the biggest thing will be, everybody knows joe biden is going to get the nomination but they don't know who his number two is going to be. we know he is committed to a woman, steve. we know stacey abrams basically said saturday and sunday again choose me. amy klobuchar has made it clear she wants it, too. i guess kamala harris is doing his podcasts.
3:11 am
so that's going to be the most intriguing thing, people unsure about the 77-year-old want to make sure that the number 2 is strong. steve: yeah there are a lot of questions about joe biden going forward. at the same time, when you look at the number of people who are staying at home, you know, they are just watching netflix or watching our program, they are cleaning their closets and basements for the 15th time, you know, the presidential race is so low on the priorities of everybody that i know of. you know, everybody knows it's going to be joe biden vs. donald trump come november. it will be interesting ainsley though to seat eventual debates because they have two very different presentations and two very different personalities. and as we know, a lot of people make up their minds who they are going to vote for when they watch those people on the stage. ainsley: yeah, over the weekend people were upset because tara reade this lady who came out and
3:12 am
accused joe biden. sunday shows didn't ask about it. double standards. kavanaugh they were very quick to accuse and where were these questions on the sunday shows about tara reade and those allegations and the double standard there we will interview joe concha and tezlyn figure garr row about that. that's coming up. now we will hand it over to jillian who has headlines for us. jillian: good morning to you. we begin with a fox news alert. a louisiana police officer is dead. another critically injured after a gun fight with a man wanted for murder. the baton rouge officers were searching for suspect ronny indicated dough when hronny kate want to hear. not only were these police officers public servants. they are fathers, husbands, loved by their family. jillian: kato was taken into custody after a four-hour standoff. the fallen officer has not been named. we do know he was a 21 year
3:13 am
veteran of the force. police investigating a drive-by shooting at the louisiana state of "duck dynasty" star wily robertson. up to 10 shots were fired. a bullet ended up striking a window where robertson's son, wife and infant child were staying. police arresting daniel king jr. charging with him with aggravated assault. sadie posting it's okay. we had all just gone inside. workers start prepping factories to reopen. the company says the workers will begin to practice safety protocol like temperature screenings and face masks. crews on voluntary basis. workers are paid if they choose to return but are not required to return. the company's plants and a1e78ablassembly lines closed se march. this year's first virtual draft crushing ratings with 8.4 million viewers.
3:14 am
the league's draft-a-thon raising nearly $7 million for organizations like the red cross and feeding america. go to relief.nfl.come t.com. the nike sitting on the chair with the patriots on the clock has been going viral. i think people have just been starving, brian, for any sort of live sports action and nfl did a great job. brian: one of these times where everyone was pull for the nfl to full off. and think about the biographies and streaming service they were able to do are the from the people's homes and the coach's chairs. bill belichick stunning put a malmall.eagle's pick on -- eaglt all friday show dedicate to how the eagles are going to do if i can get steve and ainsley sign off on it. ainsley: i would agree to it.
3:15 am
brian: i know you would. rumors swirling over kim jong un's health. could his sister take the hymn ohowmanyhelmof the secretive rah vijay. dan hoffman next. what does it mean to be a good neighbor? it means being there for each other. that's why state farm is announcing the good neighbor relief program we know our customers are driving less, which means fewer accidents. so state farm is returning $2 billion dollars to auto policyholders for the period ending may 31st.
3:16 am
and we'll continue making real time decisions to best serve you - our customers. because now, more than ever, being a good neighbor means everything. like a good neighbor, state farm is there. i wanted more from my copd medicine that's why i've got the power of 1, 2, 3 medicines with trelegy. the only fda-approved once-daily 3-in-1 copd treatment. ♪ trelegy ♪ the power of 1,2,3 ♪ trelegy ♪ 1,2,3 ♪ trelegy man: with trelegy and the power of 1, 2, 3, i'm breathing better. trelegy works three ways to open airways, keep them open and reduce inflammation, for 24 hours of better breathing. trelegy won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. trelegy is not for asthma. tell your doctor if you have a heart condition or high blood pressure before taking it. do not take trelegy more than prescribed. trelegy may increase your risk of thrush, pneumonia, and osteoporosis. call your doctor if worsened breathing, chest pain, mouth or tongue swelling, problems urinating, vision changes,
3:17 am
3:19 am
brian: rumors swirling over kim jong un's health as remain silent about the whereabouts of him for two weeks. south korea claims the leader is, quote, alive and well. this aspects grows that his powerful sister kim youn could be the successor. here to discuss that is dan hoffman. we didn't know kim jong un's dad died for two days. has our intelligence gotten better this time? >> well you, i can tell you
3:20 am
there is no more weekendly challenging requirement for our intelligence community than the hermit kingdom, north korea that would include kim jong un's health, his whereabouts. and what could be an unplanned succession that might lead to his sister sizin seizing power. brian: we know a couple things have happened. we see a train has pulled up to a compound he might be in. we also know he hasn't been seen since august 11th. and he missed his grandfather's funeral. this daily seoul based media group says he has cardiovascular ailment and recovering. the chinese doctors have been spirited in to treat him. what do you hear, dan? >> those are all rumors swirling about right now. and, again, i just would highlight what we have not seen, which is an official north korean statement about kim jong un's health or any response to the lured claims about potential
3:21 am
heart disease. we know he has a history of heavy smoking that he has been triewrmd have diabetes. is he obese. is he certainly at risk for all sorts of health problems. the fact that he hasn't appeared publicly is certainly an obvious indication that something behind the scenes is going on. i can guarantee you that china and russia. not just the united states, is tracking these developments closely given the fact that north korea has such an extraordinarily expansive arsenal of weapons of mass destruction. any sort of instability in that hermit kingdom regime would be cause for concern in the region and beyond. brian: i know there has not been military leader to show if there is a change. if something should happen he is dead and incapacitated people say his sister is really bright could take over. how does the korean culture, the north korean culture view women? could they ever answer to a woman in that culture? >> so i think there is a number of concerns here. first of all, this would be an
3:22 am
unplanned succession entirely different from the one that resulted in kim jong un coming to power almost a decade ago. and there are, i'm sure, pockets within the north korean military and intelligence who would not support kim jong un's sister. perhaps over gender discrimination. but also because they have their own interest. and their own interest might be better served with someone else seizing power. this is the concern for us. that we may see some instability in that hermit kingdom for sure. brian: right. he has a wife that could take over and a half uncle who he hasn't killed. that's a good sign that maybe he could trust him. he killed his other uncle, i believe with a machine gun. so we will see what happens. certainly impactful and the coronavirus, we don't know what north korea is experiencing. but he certainly would be somebody of high risk. dan, i look forward catching up with you. you know your sources. dan, appreciate it.
3:23 am
3:26 am
3:27 am
trending on twitter. one former clinton advisor saying quote to avoid potential catastrophe in november biden should withdraw. bernie can restart his campaign. lehr to react is bernie staffer tezlyn if i gag row. good morning, tezlyn. >> good morning. ainsley: tara reade tells her story about a month ago on a podcast. since then biden has done almost a dozen interviews. chuck todd, george stephanopoulos and twice with anderson cooper and never asked about this. this is what she says to fox news shocking this much time has passed and he is an actual nominee for president and they are not asking the questions. if this were donald trump, would they treat it the same way? if this were brett kavanaugh did, they treat it the same way? in other words it's politics and political agenda playing a role in objective reporting and asking the questions. if this were donald trump, how would they have handled that? >> well, we already know how they would have handled it. obviously president trump has
3:28 am
also been questioned many, many times on his past accusers. but, as far as folks, you know, tweeting dropout biden my question is what is the point of him dropping out if bernie sanders has already dropped to his knees. if he is not speaking up for the progressives that support him, i really don't know what good it would do than creating more twitter political theater. at the end of the day, the only person standing between joe biden and the nomination was senator bernie sanders. he not only dropped out of the campaign, suspended his campaign, but he also immediately endorsed joe biden. so he hasn't said anything as well. when i look at joe biden and who is holding him accountable. it's his voters. so if his voters are not concerned, obviously, they are not concerned about the issues. the glaring issues overcome a problem with joe biden. he only owes them an answer. but the question really is what about bernie sanders and the millions of millions of people that support him? why is bernie sanders also quiet on this issue? once again, we like to pick and choose if president trump can be
3:29 am
asked for his past issues and so can joe biden. but my main concern is that bernie sanders actually talks about -- walks the walk that he walks which is start a revolution and apparently that's something that he just doesn't want to do. ainsley: his or her mom called into larry king in the 1990s. don't know when it was deleted. biden is denying. this reached out to his campaign. he hasn't said anything. he hasn't responded to it. it sounds like you are very disappointed with bernie sanders for not commenting on this. where are the women that say all those women with kavanaugh who said we believe the women? >> well, of course. again, this is pick and choose politics. there are a lot of cases that have been dismissed that don't get the attention that they should. so, again, no one is surprised, you know that people are going to push their nominee, their choice, again if biden supporters are fine with it, that's fine. bernie sanders supporters are
3:30 am
not. when biden went and closed the deal sealed. pretending as if they are going to do the task force and come together and everyone will come together great way of working together. the bottom line is the deal has been sealed. so senator sanders, this question is very simple, are you going to speak up for the voters that gave you the $3 for the last five years or are you not? it's just that simple. is it doesn't matter what folks say on twitter. if bernie sanders caved, then this is where we are with it. he has to make a decision on is he going to speak up for his voters or pass the torch? it's just really that simple. ainsley: maybe he will this week. what did you make over the weekend nancy pelosi endorsing biden? >> well, this is the part where i normally laugh with my head all the way back. [laughter] as this was just something breaking news. this is not breaking news. this is nancy pelosi has endorsed joe biden from the very beginning. this is no secret, you know, the establishment is going to do what the establishment does. when we look at bernie on the ballot, once again, another
3:31 am
debacle at pretending as if bernie sanders is going to continue to fight to be on the ballot in new york is another issue that we're dealing with as well this morning. all of this is fraudulent to be quite honest with you. i think people are just even more disappointed to show the games have continued to be played. either bernie sanders is going to unsuspend his campaign and run this race or sit down. it's just really that simple. they have already coalesced behind joe biden. he coalesced behind joe biden. he said he will do everything possible to make sure his friend is running. ainsley: why is he doing that? why does he still want to stay on the ballot? >> i don't know. at the end of the day. senator sanders speak directly to him. senator sanders. stop playing games. at the end of the day, have you already sealed the deal. when you went in to make the deal to go ahead and pass your movement over, you made the deal then. you already know what joe biden is going to do. >> you already know what policies he will adopt and what he won't adopt.
3:32 am
otherwise, you would not have endorsed joe biden. so to pretend as if oh, you know, i'm going to endorse but one minute i still want to be on the ballot. i want to get delegation. why continue to play with these people's pain in this way. continue to have people donate their last three dollars. have people hoping and praying for this behind the scene revolution. it's wrong and fraudulent. either you are going to get on the ballot today and unsuspend your campaign or stop the games. it's just that plain and simple. this is wrong. you have people who are crying and really hoping and believing in this man, oh, maybe bernie down the road. maybe he will fight behind the scenes. no, revolutions don't work that way. if it's not on the scene, then it's not behind the scene. either it is or it's not. this is a fraudulent game, senator sanders, stopping playing with these folks. get on the ballot or sit down. ainsley: tezlyn, you spent hours and years pushing for him and his campaign. i definitely feel like you are frustrated with him.
3:33 am
is he selling out? what comes to mind? why are you frustrated? >> selling out? he has already sold. the deal is already sold. it's already sealed. this is what people don't understand about politics. no one will go in and endorse someone if they haven't already closed the deal. would would senator sanders close entire movement if the deal wasn't negotiated. i'm going it endorse him and do everything to help my friend create this task force and pretend. it's a fraud and it's a game. that's the problem that i have. i have always criticized bernie sanders. i don't have a problem criticizing everybody across the board from trump, bernie sanders, you name it. biden as well. but when we talk about taking people's last $3 during this pandemic it is wrong, senator sanders. stand up or sit down. ainsley: tezlyn, you are great. thanks for coming on with us. >> thank you. ainsley: 6:33 on the east coast. wasn't too long that the blasting the president for
3:34 am
banning travel from china. why is nancy pelosi now saying this ban didn't go far enough. dan bongino on the democrat 180 coming up next. and school. home is playground, gym and concert hall. and cvs health is helping, with free home prescription delivery, free telehealth from aetna, and free support for caregivers. we're doing all we can to help you stay well, as you stay in. because now more than ever, home is where the heart is. cvs health.
3:36 am

3:38 am
ask your doctor about botox® for chronic migraine. you got this. >> we know that the chinese communist party was both criminally negligent and incompetent at first and then deliberately, deliberately monovalent in the way they responded to this virus for their own people and the world. as early as the seconds week of december, i believe that was a deliberate and conscious choice from the communist chinese leadership they didn't want to see their standing in the world decline because this virus was contained within china. steve: there have you senator tom cotton yesterday with maria. let's bring in dan bongino former secret service agent and new york city cop. he joins us from down in florida where the beaches are reopening
3:39 am
slowly but surely. hey, dan, you know, when you hear senator cotton talking about how deceptive china was, you know, we get good news from deborah birx yesterday. she said essentially the number of cases coming down, we're getting our hands around this social distancing is going to have to continue. but we would not probably be to the dire stages we are had china simply been forthcoming and said hey we have a problem here, look out world. >> yeah, what china did was disgusting. let's be crystal clear on this. it wasn't just one acts and it wasn't misfeigns, it wa misfeass malfeasance. > we have a good idea they stopped some travel wuhan china contain that spread to that specific area and not get it out to china proper there. but they didn't stop travel from wuhan to places like the united states or else where. tough ask yourself if you are
3:40 am
doing international diplomacy and geo politics what's the only reason you would do something like that? knowing you have a potentially deadly, human-to-human transmission capable virus. why would you let people travel to another country while restricting travel within? to spread your problems elsewhere? i mean, i'm asking, what reasonable person would come to a conclusion. ppe protecting themselves after they let this virus spread. this is only three. we could go on for days on china's malfeasance. the silencing of doctors we haven't seen some of these chinese doctors again trying to do the right thing for the world and warn them about this plague and what happened? we don't see or hear from them ever again. what do you think happened? they are not on vacation, steve, you know, this is really horrible what china did. it's disgusting on an exponential scale.
3:41 am
brian: so a couple things happened as you look at where these flights went to after this epidemic hit china and they are trying to cover it up. but as you say exporting the chinese citizens from wuhan around the world, someone to our west coast. others went to europe and europeans came here especially italy, italy flat on its back and spain flat on its back and we are real ling trying to open the economy. tom cotton went on to to say stop sending chinese students. send them to our colleges to learn cutting edge electronics and cyber techniques and intel and then we send them back to china it. makes absolutely no sense. meanwhile nancy pelosi said oh on donald trump getting credit for stopping the ban? she says he didn't go far enough. listen. >> tens of thousands of people were still allowed in from china. so, it wasn't as it is described as this great moment.
3:42 am
there were americans coming back or green card holders coming back, but there were tens of thousands. if you are going to shut the door because you have an evaluation of an epidemic then shut the door. brian: your response, dan? >> you know, i'm really, in the interest of keeping my job at fox, i'm trying to contain myself here. adam schiff i previously thought was the biggest fraud in congress. i have now reevaluated. nancy pelosi, adam schiff is a rooky. a grapefruit league ball player compared to this serial fraudster in nancy pelosi. i'm deeply sorry if you are watching this show right now and you take this woman seriously. not only did she delay the ppe, the paycheck protection program to keep from you getting money to implement her green new deal type stuff and a radical liberal agenda including how many white people you have in your board
3:43 am
room. board room wokeness. she is also lying right now. she is a serial lie liar and fraudster. brian, she tweeted out about travel bans. i heard her defense. i wasn't tweeting about trump's travel ban. read her tweet. her tweet is the no ban act. i didn't tweet it, brian. fraudster pelosi did. the no ban act. can she read? she was tweeting, again for the third time because liberals can't read the no ban act, stating she wanted to limit the potus, president of the united states, for liberals here. she wanted to limit his ability to institute travel bans from china. what part of this am i missing? she is trying to do a halloween michael meyers red conning of history like the prior movies didn't exist? we can read your tweets. you supported in support of banning travel bans and to limit the president. i have the tweet, here, look,
3:44 am
face id. there is the tweet, it's right there. there is a screen shot. is she pretending this didn't exist and now she is claiming, what? she supported president trump's travel ban but wanted it to go further? look, there's the tweet. you think i'm making that up? i didn't photo shop it. i'm not skilled enough. it's her tweet. she was against travel bans while the wuhan virus here was wage raging. there it is. look at it. it's right there. she is a serial liar. and, listen, i get it. you can object to president trump. you are a democrat, he is a republican. whatever. do your thing. i'm not telling people who to vote for that's not what i'm here for. i'm simply telling you she is a serial liar and fraudster. if you believe her, you are red conning history, too. it's right there in front of your face. she has been on the wrong side of everything. ainsley: and the media won't report it. we are the only ones talking about it, dan. she knows she can say and it get away with it. >> she is on tape telling people to come to san francisco.
3:45 am
there is nothing about social distancing. come on down to chinatown. hang out. let's party, folks. she is on tape. ainsley: dan, how many years in law enforcement for you? >> 12. >> okay. this has to really make you as mad as it's making me. i read this article in the "new york post." the headline is brooklyn man arrested on attempted rape days after being released from rele s island. released for rape released because of covid-19. 10 days later this woman says he tried to grab her drag her into a park choked her she had to perform certain things on him and demanded that she get undressed. thankfully she was able to kick him away and get away. this guy was released because of covid-19. your reaction? >> you know, i have used this on the show before because it's an important quote and i hate quotes. ellis said sizzles thin crust on
3:46 am
a volcano. don't ever ever ever forget that because the thin crust are our police officers and military keeping that volcano contained and our sizzles in order. now we have a situation, ainsley, where just to be clear, moms and dads are being arrested on public parks for playing with their kids for doing nothing wrong. but, yet, we are releasing rapists, murderer he is felons and criminals into the streets? again, i'm thought making this up. it's not hyperbole or dan bongino for effect on fox. it's too early for that stuff. i'm simply stating to you a fact. can you see the videotapes yourself. we are releasing criminals going out doing awfl, tragic thing to american citizens. people who have already been arrested while we are arresting moms and dads in the park for swinging with their kids. listen, i'm not being dramatic when i tell you this is really trouble ling. the very threads of the republic are being pulled at right now,
3:47 am
this kind of nonsense can't continue. while we are releasing -- one more thing, ainsley. we are releasing them because it's potentially dangerous for them to be in an enclosed environment because of covid. but you didn't think of the danger for other people like this woman who was nearly killed by the maniac because you were worried about him catching this coronavirus? are you kidding me? tell that the woman who almost got killed here. this is nonviolent? please. i will take a hard pass on that one. brian: i hear you. steve: it's not just happening in new york where this man who was accused of rape was then released and it all happened but it's happening all across the country in california the same as well. it is a head scratcher about they are trying to protect the people inside the prison. you get that but, at the same time, this should not shock anybody. dan, thank you very much for joining us today from dan in stuart, florida. >> thanks, guys. good to talk to you.
3:48 am
ainsley: thank you. steve: it's about 12 and a half minutes before the top of the hour. janice joins us on this monday. janice, it was a busy weekend in weather. janice: absolutely. another busy week this week with strong to severe thunderstorms in parts of the same areas. the ark-la-tex. we will keep you posted. couple other stories we are following. we had snow upwards of a foot in upstate new york this weekend. it is cold enough for snow over parts of new england today. >> so below average temperatures for the northeast. the other side of this, across the west, dealing with record heat, temperatures in the 100-degree range, phoenix, you reached 100 degrees yesterday. your first of the year. and we could see the first 100-degree temperature in las vegas for april this week. so, cold across the northeast, very warm and hot conditions across the southwest. and, of course, those severe weather threats tomorrow. we will certain you keep you up to date.

steve: this pandemic has closed schools for 55 million students for 43 states ordering or recommending they stay shut the balance of this school year. now as many parents become home coolers, a new op-ed is calling out the media and academic elites for their war against it. it comes after a harvard professor called on a ban on home schooling claiming it gives parents too much authority our next guest says home schooling is about freedom, education reform advocate durrell bradford joins us now. >> goo good morning, thanks for having me. steve: why do you think these elites are taking on home schooling? without home schooling and parents right now picking up the
3:54 am
pieces, this would be a lost semester. >> yeah. so it's kind of two things. i think we have seen it a lot. you know some people in education feel it's good to substitute their vision of the world for someone else's vision of the world. in this case it's the parent's vision of how a child becomes a best version of themselves and if you look at what's coming out of harvard right now it's that there is also like a more sinister play on this. which is that if you are like a huge public school monopoly loyalist and i'm a public school supporter there are lots of people who think your neighborhood school is the only school you should go to. many people concerned kids home schooling might like it and not come back. kids mean money. the fewer kids you have, the less money you have. and with the economy the way it is, there is a big play to make sure everybody goes to a public school. steve: so are you suggesting this is about like the teachers,
3:55 am
teachers union. power like that. >> i might not be suggesting i might actually be saying it. you know, i think over the last year and a half, we have seen charter schools sort of, you know, get the same line of attack. we have seen private schools get the same line of attack. and now is a moment where if you see and look at the talk around stimulus money. you know, the national tea party's union. thtea -- the nationalteacher's t $10 million. so much money take it in install installments. kids and parents, charter schools if they don't get that same aid, it is very likely we could not see them again. steve: exit question real quick.
3:56 am
the problem with harvard magazine op-ed was that it gives parents too much control. parents need to be in control of their own kids, don't they durrell? real quick. >> it's hard to argue that if you can imagine the conversation with when you go talk to a government bureaucrat prove to me you love your kids. then that's the conversation that they want to have. and i don't know, it just seems daft but they are who they are. steve: derrell bradford. thank you for coming on today. >> thank you for having me. pete: coming up as you can see it peter navarro from the white house and newt gingrich straight ahead.

groh. ainsley: a fox news alert. more relief on the way. the small business administration restarts covid-19 loan program, steve. steve: that is good news, ainsley it. comes as several more states begin to roll back coronavirus restrictions as of this monday morning. brian. brian: yeah, griff jenkins is live in washington a prediction for when the economy could bounce back according to the treasury secretary and others. right, griff? griff: that's right. i wish i could tell you brian, ainsley and steve exactly when that's going to happen. we have to hope for the best. this is a very critical week for the country. because many states are starting to lift the lockdowns that they
4:01 am
have been living under. most of the country actually is trying to eye it. but you have four states colorado, arkansas, kentucky and mississippi you see here on this map that are going to relax things today they join georgia and montana and another 10 planned roll backs byes end of the week, florida, idaho, maine, oklahoma, tennessee, texas, oregon, and ohio. big, big steps aimed at allowing businesses to start reopening while maintaining safety precautions like social distancing and facial coverings. oklahoma's government whose state eases things on may 1st say facts on the ground drove his decision. >> i also told oklahomans that we will will be data driven. we will continue to watch the trends. if the percentage of tests start increasing or hospitalizations start increasing, that we will kick back one of those phases. and we could obviously reserve the rights to back up if we need. to say. griff: this as the ppp paycheck protection program starts up
4:02 am
toted. this time impose limits on how much individual banks can lend due to the high demand last time. since you mentioned secretary mnuchin expressing confidence of a bounce back after congress' heavy spending. listen. >> as we begin to reopen the economy in may and june, you are going to see the economy really bounce back in july, august, september. you are seeing trillions of dollars that's making its way into the economy. i think this is going to have a significant impact. griff: so clearly all of this stimulus spend something helping things. fight over this next one phase 4. going to focus on state and local governments. mcconnell and pelosi do not see eye to eye. meanwhile the president will be talking to all of the governors of the country today on a video teleconference. brian, ainsley, steve? brian: all right, griff, thanks, the whole thing, too have the american people learned enough in the last six weeks to take personal responsibility? have businesses learned what it's going to take to open up in
4:03 am
a responsible way? and the downside of staying home, watching jobs evan bore rate and not go into hyper space without the ability to work for yourself or pursue any type of goals. does that have a debilitating effect? so according to governor cuomo, yes. >> we see domestic violence going up. alcoholism going up. drug usage is going up. mental health needs are going up. do not under estimate the stress that this situation has created. i don't know if i have a job, i'm not getting a paycheck. the bills are still come in. i see no light at the end of the tunnel. cooped up in my homes and then i have this added stress of being in the situation that i have never been before in my life. yeah that is a toxic mix. when we talk about reopening, getting people out. some activities. a place where people can walk.
4:04 am
just something, you know, i say tongue and cheek it's a sanity index. people need to know that there is an opening. ainsley: he brings up excellent points. we are feeling. this everyone across the country in some way is effected by. this so many people lost their jobs. depression, i'm sure, has gone up. i know loved ones lost their spouses because of this. they are elderly. they don't want to live anymore. i know suicide is up as he said. i know two people personally who have done that it's devastating and heart breaking. i'm sure what's the fallout going to be everyone drinking. look at alcohol sales. up 243% during corona. talked to a liquor store guy the other day can't keep alcohol in stock. only one brand of chardonnay they had on the shelves because all the other brands are gone. their sales are through the roof
4:05 am
it's really affecting us in different ways. people are hold up inside their houses and just exacerbating depression feelings and a lot of people, guys. steve: if you look at what deborah birx said yesterday, ainsley, she said look, the cases are coming down. the numbers are getting better and it's because we are are social distancing. obviously in times of stress different people react differently to the challenges. you know, some people, you know, you talk about people hitting the sauce. there are a lot of people taking this time to actually work out more in their basements or they are getting more walks than they have gotten. ainsley: you are right, steve. steve: it's just how you approach it. people in my neighborhood have gathered in a social distance like we have never done before. peter navarro, the director of the office of trade and
4:06 am
manufacturing and national defense production act policy coordinator. he has got the longest title in washington, d.c. peter, good morning to you. >> good morning there, steve. and, let me bring you guys some good news and breaking news, if i may. yes, we had our economy shut down, but we are also engaged in the most rapid industrial mobilization that we have had since world war ii. here's the breaking news. we have the 21st century version of rosy the rivet ter coming here to the wows to visit the president with a group. a woman named ken glass. she is the coordinator of the national council of textile organizations. i got to know her about six weeks ago, steve. and what she wanted to do was help mobilize all the companies in a group things like jockey haines, park dale mills to re-purpose their factories from making things like t-shirts into
4:07 am
making gowns and masks and things like cotton swabs. it's been tremendously successful. she has been able to do work miracles working with a whole variety of companies. she is going to be here today. it's part of this bigger thing where you have a company like general motors can stand up a ventilator factory in 17 days in cocoa mow, indiana. make ventilators and get them into hospitals in gary and chicago. good news as we try to get america back to work. brian: i watched that "60 minutes" special great things ford and g.m. have done. they don't get credit for that transformed everything and able to mail ventilators around the world. we understand it's going to be a big week for us we are beginning to stand up more and more states little by little. peter, what is your greatest concern as places like oklahoma, south carolina, georgia, and
4:08 am
portions of texas and florida begin to reopen their economy? >> look, brian. deborah birx is handling the guide guidelines are. we have steve mnuchin and larry kudlow going with the big macrostuff. what i'm focused on are supply chain issues and making sure we have everything we need for medical supplies and equipment. one of the things that's on my radar that's really troublesome is there is a lot of these antibody tests coming in from china now that are low quality, false readings and things like that. we have to be really careful. those are the kinds of things i'm watching, brian, as we try to ramp up our medical supply chain to meet all the needs we need. ainsley: mr. that march have a,s
4:09 am
talking about the needs of china. >> some countries did respond very quickly and get their testing in place. incredible economic pain and it's sad that even the u.s. that you would have expected to do this well did it particularly poorly. it's not time to talk about that. this is the time to take the great science we have, the fact that we are in this together, you know, fix testing, treatments and get that vaccine. minimize the trillions of dollars and many things that you can't even dimensionallize in economic terms that are awful about the situation that we're in. that's a distraction. ainsley he says it's not time to talk about blaming china. your thoughts? >> china spun that virus. they hid it for six weeks. they could have contained it in wuhan. they didn't. they seeded the world with, this with hundreds of thousands of chinese getting on aircraft to milan, to new york and other
4:10 am
places during that six week period what they did was they vacuumed up the world for personal protective equipment. over 2 billion masks, depriving public healthcare workers around the world from the defenses they need. and today china is profiteering basically from this situation. bill gates, i'm all for innovation, but we have to hold china accountable and now china is even flooding us with these bad tests. so, mr. gates and i will differ on the need to hold china accountable. that's certainly the case. because the chinese communist party basically inflicted this virus on the world. and we should never forget that here in america. steve: peter, you are part of the president's team on getting america back to work. and you were talking about the supply chain a moment ago and how, you know, slowly but surely factories are are starting to reopen. how can factories reopen when a
4:11 am
lot of their suppliers are still closed or they depend on supplies from china. and how can -- additionally, how can parents go back to work when the schools are still closed because somebody has got to take care of the kids. >> yeah, these are good questions, steve. one of the things i'm doing in my office just about 40 yards across the street, we are trying to figure out the best protocols to keep our factories going. you know, as we have been going through this process, we have had a lot of factories continue to remain open. but we're going to have to use appropriate protocols, different social distancing, you're going to have to reconfigure the factories. you are going to have to use things like thermoscanners to check fever as they come in. so this is what we are dealing with here at the house 24/7 making sure america gets back to work. what we have a president in president donald j. trump who has a keen sense of what it
4:12 am
takes to get businesses back to work and that's what we're focused on. on the hill and with the white house. we have had a tremendous amount now of fiscal stimulus. the fed is doing its jobs in terms of monetary stimulus. i'm very bullish on this country being able to adapt in this war, and it is a war. to this new virus we are fighting in a way which will get america back to work, get our kids back to school. and we're going to move to a different place than we were, but it's going to be a better and stronger place once we get through it. brian: peter, yesterday governor hogan was on national news. said the president neex needs to stick to the facts. he had no choice but to go to south korea to get testing. most states saying you don't have the reagents or swabs yet. what's your answer to all of that? >> remember, a month ago andrew
4:13 am
cuomo running around we don't have ventilators. we have ventilators now now what we are doing with testing ramp up in most industrial mobilization since world war ii. we are moving towards that and working on those problems. and you are going to see down the road as we increase and increase the amount of testing. don't forget, brian. there is the virus testing. but there is also the testing for antibodies. that's going to be important in terms of getting people back to work. because that's where, perhaps, we can find people who are immune that can be in the workplace in a more safe environment. we can't have china, for example, bringing in those fake tests and counterfeit tests because that's going to be very disruptive. ainsley: we want to play you this soundbite. this was mayor bill de blasio on with maria bartiromo and asking for a bailout and how much money new york needs. listen to this. >> so how much money do you want, mr. mayor, how much money do you need from the federal
4:14 am
government? >> all the money that's been lost and will be lost. lost revenue. this is true for new york and cities and states around the country. we need $7.4 billion. that's how much we have lost. that's how much we need to get back. just like the federal government bailed out the airline industry to the tune of $250 billion. bail out the largest city in the country so we can restart and be strong leaders on economic revitalization in this country. ainsley: bottom line this economy needs to be repaired. we started this out so negative we are all going through so many different emotions. one moment enjoying the benefit of this. and next moment so many sad stories. we want the economy to be up and running. we want people to get back to work. if we give states a bailout will that help increase? will that help increase productivity and help the economy? or is that money we don't have. >> let me tell you two stories
4:15 am
about bill de blasio. the first is like cuomo. they forget there is 49 other states in the union here that also need some help. number two, more importantly, i worked with bill over the last six weeks to try to get new york. on easter sunday. we were talking about getting more gowns to new york and we concede the plan to put the cutters and sewers back in new york. seven days a million square yards of fabric moved up and u.p.s. trucks thank you to them. and now in sun set park in brooklyn they are making gowns for the doctors and nurses in new york. that's the kind of thing i focus on. i can't reach into my magic bag and throw a bunch of money though at new york right now. steve: we understand the frustration. everybody has it. peter navarro, thank you very much. we know you have a very busy day
4:16 am
with talking to the governors and everybody else, sir. thank you for joining us today. >> good to talk to you all. steve: good luck to you, stay safe. 7:15 in new york city. jillian joins us from our world headquarters. good morning, jillian. jillian: we start with a fox news alert. a louisiana police officer is dead another critically injured after a gun fight with a man wanted for murder. baton rouge officers were searching for suspect ronny kato when he opened fire. >> this is the call that no chief wants to get no. police officer wants to hear. not only were these police officers public servants, they were fathers, husbands, loved by their family. jillian: kato was taken into custody after a four hour standoff. the fallen officer has not been named. we do know he was a 21 year veteran of the force. speaker nancy pelosi along the last big names to endorse the presumptive democratic nominee. >> i'm proud to endorse joe
4:17 am
biden for president, a leader who is the personification of hope and courage, values, authenticity and integrity. we will deliver bold progress for the people when we have president joe biden in the white house. ainsley: i jillian: in a video speaker she says joe biden can do a better job guiding america out of the coronavirus crisis. his campaign is set to announce vice president selection panel friday. al young firefighter in training is going viral showing off her skills. take a look. >> fire. jillian: that's 3-year-old darcy following in father's footsteps. putting out a pretend fire amid u.k. lock down. she keeps going until all the flames are out. that's a look at your headlines. send it back to you. steve: good practice. brian: all right.
4:18 am
4:20 am
4:22 am
ainsley: joejoe biden's accuser tara reade saying i think it's shocking this much time has passed and they are not asking the questions. i guess my question is if this were donald trump would they treat it the same way? if this were brett kavanaugh, did they treat it the same way? here to discuss the media reporter joe concha. hey, joe. >> good morning, ainsley.
4:23 am
ainsley: were you shocked. zero questions on the sunday shows. they interviewed different people that biden is potentially or possibly going to ask did be his vice president like stacey abrams and amy klobuchar. zero questions. and these are women. >> exactly. look, ainsley bias in broad dralt most insidious bias out there. the bias of omission. not talking about something, interviewing somebody about something that obviously shouldn't be broached. and you brought up stacey abrams and she was on chuck todd's show yesterday and jake at that poin. he would never be confused with tim russert. he was a master. the art of reading somebody's quote back to them and thinking about what do you think of your own words. stacey abrams said in 2018 after the courageous and compelling testimony of chrissy blasey ford. it's a shame being rushed fourth degree forward. i believe women of violence always deserve to be supported.
4:24 am
would that be a gotcha question to read that question back to stacey abrams. okay you want to be vice president's joe biden's vice president. how does that square outspoken in terms of declaring brett kavanaugh guilty before proven in fact the exact opposite process. not just the presumptive nominee in joe biden also goes to the women that want to be his vice president. for whatever reason and i don't know, ainsley, if it's some sort of condition being made between knows interviewing those women or joe biden a condition beforehand saying we're not going to bring this up if you give us access. i would love to know about that because i find it impossible to believe there is not one journalist out there, one interviewer that would want to bring this up because it absolutely is a story based on the kavanaugh and trump president. ainsley: just a double standard that's really upsetting tara reade. she said if this were president trump or kavanaugh, people don't remember this is how the media covered kavanaugh.
4:25 am
>> will the kavanaugh nomination crash and burn? >> i definitely think it's in trouble. it wouldn't surprise me if he chose to withdraw and chose to back down. >> when you have somebody like going to prison and in the same breath having kavanaugh possibly going to the highest court in the land. >> these white men, old by the way, are not protecting women. they are protecting a man who is probably guilty. ainsley: kavanaugh said he didn't do it. his accuser said that he did. in this case biden is saying he didn't do it. we reached out to the campaign they haven't called us back about it. he has denied it. tara reade is saying did he do it. do why isn't it covered equally or fairly? >> i would like to see mr. biden from spoken word in his basement in delaware be asked about this and answer it without a written statement written by somebody else. look at the tone, too, ainsley. 344 minutes according to the media research center. only 20 minutes to kavanaugh's denials.
4:26 am
when dean executive director of the "new york times" was asked why aren't you covering this story kavanaugh was already in the forum in large way unlike somebody in the white house 8 years and about to get the nomination. the me too movement has been weaponized. now being used by some people to take political opponents out while others, including media is using it in other ways not to cover the same allegations based on whoever the accused is and the party they represent and that is a shame to the women who are the true victims out there, ainsley. ainsley: joe, thank you so much for being with us. >> all right. thank you. stay safe. >> you are welcome. do you. america blocking the beaches and others. some say quarantine fatigue. how dangerous is this? dr. nicole saphier joins us next. ♪ hi, i'm bob harper,
4:29 am
and i recently had a heart attack. it changed my life. but i'm a survivor. after my heart attack, my doctor prescribed brilinta. it's for people who have been hospitalized for a heart attack. brilinta is taken with a low-dose aspirin. no more than 100 milligrams as it affects how well brilinta works. brilinta helps keep platelets from sticking together and forming a clot. in a clinical study, brilinta worked better than plavix. brilinta reduced the chance of having another heart attack... ...or dying from one. don't stop taking brilinta without talking to your doctor, since stopping it too soon increases your risk of clots in your stent, heart attack, stroke, and even death. brilinta may cause bruising or bleeding more easily, or serious, sometimes fatal bleeding. don't take brilinta if you have bleeding, like stomach ulcers, a history of bleeding in the brain, or severe liver problems. slow heart rhythm has been reported. tell your doctor about bleeding new or unexpected shortness of breath any planned surgery, and all medicines you take. if you recently had a heart attack, ask your doctor if brilinta is right for you. my heart is worth brilinta.
4:30 am
if you can't afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help. police break up antigovernment protest since march. stopped the social distancing banned gatherings of more than 4 people. they also did a bunch of arrest. those rules have eased as coronavirus cases dropped in hong kong. and good news. british prime minister boris johnson back on the job after
4:31 am
recovering from covid-19. johnson making his first remarks in morning warning the lockdown too soon he was released from hospital two weeks ago after spending time in the icu. word is he still won't comb his hair, steve? steve: all right, brian. thank you. meanwhile apple's new mobility tracker reveals what appears to be what is being referred to as quarantine fatigue suggesting americans are getting tired of being stuck in the house and are venturing out despite more stay-at-home orders. here with reaction fox news medical contributor and author of new book big best seller make america healthy again dr. nicole saphier. doctor, good morning to you. >> good morning, steve. you know, everybody watching right now gets it. quarantine fatigue is a real thing. people are stuck in their homes. you have been in that library for the last month. but at the same time, we know that without social distancing this is not going to work.
4:32 am
so if you go out and about, which is great physical activity and it's also good to clear your mind, you just have to be careful because things are not back to normal. >> that's right. steve. and i don't really need an apple digital mobility tracker to let me know we are all a little tired of staying inside. you are right. i have been in this library except going to and from the hospital. there is interesting information that came out of that report that apple released one they showed public transportation use crossed all the hot spots in the united states was down anywhere from 70 to 85%. which in my opinion that's a really good thing. if you actually look at the data that's come out when they have traced the infection to see where people are actually contracting the virus, it' been public transportation as well as indoors, in small gatherings. so conference rooms, in people's homes. households with the virus. so then that tells me okay. well, now that we know that people aren't doing public
4:33 am
transportation. which is why we are seeing flattening of the curve. now people are going outside and as you were mentioning, you are showing people going to the beaches. well, there are very rare cases of this virus being transmitted outdoors. which is why being outside when you can be is so important. but it is still crucial to remember that this is a respiratory virus. so it does -- it is transmissible in the air. yes, get outside. but you really want to still adhere to the social distancing in the sense that you want to keep your groups down. you don't want to have these big large gatherings because that's going continue to crease your risk of transmission. but, also, you want to keep distance from people. try to still maintain as much of that 6 feet as possible you can although we are flattening the curve right now, we still have thousands of people in hospitals across the country we are not anywhere near being on the end of that curve. we are still up here. steve: if there is a silver lining, dr. saphier. perhaps it is for the first time in a long time a lot of people that i know in my neighborhood
4:34 am
are actually walking the streets. you know, because they go out and they get some exercise, which it's good, it clears your mind. it gets the blood flowing. but, at the same time, it can't hurt your physical fitness and maybe some folks will be a little more fit at the conclusion of this pandemic thing. >> steve, i really hope. so that's what my whole book is about, right? personal responsibility and being the healthiest you can possibly be. this apple tracker did show people are walking because of new york stock exchange and california and all of that i am seeing people walking the neighborhoods. my biggest concern is i want to make sure people are still taking care of their physical fitness. what is the sense of staying home staying healthy if we're not staying as healthy as we possibly could through physical exercise and good diet? steve: it's the only thing i have on my schedule every day. indict show from 6 to 9 and then at 9: 30, 10:00 i go on a very
4:35 am
long walk with my friend tony down the street. dr. nicole saphier from her library. check out the book it. is make america healthy again. it is a great read. dr. saphier, thank you. all right. it is 25 minutes before the top of the hour. time for justice. american officials vowing to hold china accountable for the pandemic. what's the best way to do it? newt gingrich on that next. it's best we stay apart for a bit, but that doesn't mean you're in this alone. we're automatically refunding our customers a portion of their personal auto premiums. we're also offering flexible payment options for those who've been financially affected by the crisis. we look forward to returning to something that feels a little closer to life as we knew it, but until then you can see how we're here to help at libertymutual.com/covid-19.

4:39 am
>> china spun that virus. they hid it for six weeks. they could have contained in wuhan. they didn't. during that 6-week period what they did was they vacuumed up the world for personal peckive equipment. over 2 billion masks, depriving public healthcare workers around the world from the defenses they need and today china's
4:40 am
profiteering basically from this situation the comins chinese communist party inflicted this virus on the world and we should never forget that in america. brian: that was peter navarro on our show a short while ago. let's bring in newt gingrich a fox news contributor former speaker of the house and author of "shakedown." before i ask you what peter said they did and we know they did keep in mind too the daily mail reporting the you wer european . campaign of disinformation promoting what they have done inflicting this virus on the world and making them skew their communication in a positive way. they also today warned australia if you continue to probe what happened with this wuhan virus, there might be a boycott of australian goods by chinese consumers and the daily mail says the communist china party of china spokesperson sparked backlash said the president
4:41 am
tweeted out said that some people should be injected by disinfectant or at least gargle with this so they won't spread the virus. lies and hatred when talking. communist party spokesperson taking action on us. the european union and australia. what should we do about this? >> well, the first thing to do to recognize as the hudson institute's timeline makes very clear, this was caused by the chinese dictatorship. they lied about it. the first case was in mid november. and they were lying about it all the way through january. the university of southampton suggested that 95% of the people who died would still be alive if the chinese dictatorship had not lied to the world. and as you point out. and as peter navarro points out. they not just lying but also took advantage of their advanced knowledge to try to corner the market on a variety of public health goods which n. a way
4:42 am
which is totally despicable. let's just start with we are competing with a dictatorship which has no sense of honesty, which cannot be trusted. and which will use its muscle whenever it can. and we have got to design a strategy that recognizes these realities. one, we should make it possible for americans to sue the chinese dictatorship just as we did, for example, after the lockerbie bombing we allowed americans to sue and they got on average $8 million per person, which probably in today's money would be about 11 million. if every single person set the standard in the u.s. and then encouraged the rest of the world, if people die, this is china's fault. they ought to sue the chinese to get the money. it two, i think we should seriously consider basically putting all of the debt on all the chinese assets in escrow so they will pay these things. there is no reason for us to lie
4:43 am
about who they are and no reason for us to tolerate them running over the planet killing several hundred thousand people causing 10s of trillions of dollars of economic pain. and then getting away with it. ainsley: i think most people will agree with you. i read your op-ed foxnews.com. the title is we can return to a precoronavirus economy. how do we do that, newt? >> i think the president is doing the right things. put the governors in charge. different governors will take different risk. i started by pointing out that on friday, the montana zoo reopened in billings. and billings is a town of 109,000. and they have perfectly safe, very few cases in montana. very different than the central park zoo. which is in the middle of a city of 8.5 million. so we are a very complicated country. it's better not to compare us to italy or france or germany. compare us to all of europe. because we're bigger than all of
4:44 am
europe geographically. that means some places will take risks, other places won't. and we will learn over the next three or four months how to do it right. but we have to also recognize that we not only have to defeat the virus this round, reopen the economy, we have to make the investments so we can crush the virus so that if it comes back in october or november or december. we can't go through a second round of this kind of mitigation by destroying the economy. it's a very, very destructive way to respond to this kind of a challenge. >> steve: yeah. newt, the congress has held a couple of sessions over the last week or so where people, members have been called into the chambers. i know the house, i think they did it alphabetically a couple days ago just so that everybody could get on the record regarding the very latest stimulus, but, speaker pelosi had this statement, when she was talking on cnn.
4:45 am
listen to this. and then we are going to get your reaction. >> the governors are impatient. i'm a big fan of governor cuomo, my own governor -- gavin newsom -- has been so spectacular. my mayor, mayor reed. state and local have done their jobs magnificently. they should be impatient their impatience will help us get an even bigger number. that goes to governor of maryland has been spectacular in all of this. many governors, many mayors, bipartisan for us to get the largest amount. steve: so there she is talking about how it would be nice for governors and mayors to get a lot of money when you look at new york city and new york state that has been the hardest hit spot it's not a shock that the liberal democrat wants the largest amount of money
4:46 am
particularly if they can borrow it all and not have to worry about paying for it. so nancy pelosi is behaving like a good liberal democrat the question for the country is to draw the distinction between an amount of money that allows to us bridge the problem. i do think with the dramatic decline in the economy, the dramatic decline in the tax revenue and various other costs probably some kind of bridge amount makes sense. i would be deeply opposed to a bailout. if you look at for example as illinois which has the worst pension system in the country. grotesquely overcommitted, i don't think the rest of america should bail out the politicians in illinois who have made a total mess of their state pension fund. so, let's distinguishable between a bailout and a bridging amount of money and let's also say that states that are really out-of-line need to reorganize what they're doing get their act together. if the federal taxpayer is going to send them money.
4:47 am
i don't think we should automatically assume business as usual if they are showing up hat in hand saying give me the money fine give us the reorganization so you are not going to get back in this shape again. palestine brian going to be interesting give us a line item when it comes to fill in the blank on pensions stand up and say not okay has nothing to do with this. newt gingrich, thanks so much for the latest insight. appreciate it? >> thank you. good to be with you. brian: go out to jillian. jillian, you have the latest on north korea. and do they need a new leader? jillian: here is what is happening. north korean newspaper says it has proof kim jong un is alive. the outlet claiming it received a letter from kim jong un thanking construction workers for the job they have done on a new tourist zone. the letter's existence has not been confirmed. speculation of the dictator's health keeps swirling after kim did not appear during a north
4:48 am
korean holiday honoring his grandfather. the leader has not been seen publicly since april 11th. we will keep you updated when we get more information. michael flynn will be exonerated this week. that's according to fox host maria bartiromo's sources. his conviction is a quote total fraud a set-up. congressman devin nunes says new evidence presented may be crucial. >> what was submitted to the court on friday evening, but we believe that it's possibly exculpatory evidence that the government had on general flynn. jillian: flynn pleaded guilty for lying to the fbi in 2017. earlier this year he attempted to withdraw his plea deal claiming he was framed. his case is being externally reviewed. now to. so trending stories on foxnews.com right now. first up, congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez criticized by the daily news editorial board for voting against the latest stimulus
4:49 am
bill. next, new york city mayor bill de blasio appoints his wife as head of the coronavirus racial inequality task force. and finally a new york couple suing the chinese government for not letting the world know about the deadly virus sooner. to read more about these stories and many others, can you download the fox news app. the news moves fast and we can help you keep up. send it back to you. ainsley: all right. thank you, jillian. coming up, florida reopening in stages. somehow tampa slowly getting back to normal? the mayor there is going to join us on that. and her funny apology to tom brady after the city's new quarterback was kicked out of a park. what a welcome. that's next.
4:53 am
brian: florida governor ron desantis opening the sunshine state in stages. certain beaches. no live sports or movie theaters just yet. there is sports. how is the city of tampa planning to slowly get back to normal. the best person to answer that question and more is the mayor of tampa jane castro. mayor, thanks so much for joining us today. i appreciate it. >> my pleasure. thank you, brian. brian: so, first off. let's talk about the one person who just cannot get in line.
4:54 am
and that is tom brady. he's walking into neighbor's houses by mistake. is he going into parks to stretch out. what are you going to do to get him in line. >> he is fine. he is fine. he just was on a jog and stretching out in a park. so one of the park employees went and just advised him very kindly thought park was closed. he will fit in down here in tampa just just fine. brian: right. you wrote an apology letter to him for citation. law enforcement back i couldn't help have someone investigate the sighting of the long time greatest in one of parks. no harm no, foul thanks for being a great sport about it. action around the bucs with gronk. serve talking about the bucs but you can't play football yet, mayor. >> well, we can't. everybody should be talking about the bucs.
4:55 am
we are looking at being the first team to have the super bowl bring that lombardi trophy home here into our own backyard with the next super bowl. yes, we do have other things that we need to concentrate on so we can bring these large sporting events back. >> and as a state, have you 31,000 confirmed cases. you have lost 1,075. but, in florida, things really seem to be trending in the right direction. what has governor desantis told you about reopening tampa? >> actually, i haven't spoken to governor desantis. so i'm not sure i believe that he is going to slowly open the state bac back up. we need to make decisions based on testing. so the governor has really ramped up the testing throughout the state. and, you know, we are on a
4:56 am
downward trajectory, but, with that said, we have only tested 1% of our population. so we have got to really ramp up those number of tests so we have an accurate picture of the virus in our community; however, our citizens have done an amazing job with our safer at home order. and we have really crushed that curve here in our community. and hopefully we will continue to do that. brian: that's a great big exhale from everyone in tampa who wants to visit tampa. thanks so much, mayor. continued good luck and try to keep that tom brady in line and rob gronkowski's shirt on. thank you very much. coming up next dr. oz and cardinal dolan separately. ♪

4:58 am
5:00 am
steve: it is 8:00 o'clock in new york city on this monday april 27th, 2020 and fox news alert. more relief is on the way. as of today the small business administration will restart its very popular and very successful covid-19 loan program, brian. brian: yeah. around 10:00 o'clock. it comes as several more states begin to roll back coronavirus restrictions. ainsley: griff jenkins live in washington as the administration expresses confidence in economic recovery. griff: the administration is starting what's pivotal
5:01 am
confidence and more aid coming to small business. white house adviser peter navarro. peter: i'm very bullish on this country being able to adapt in this war and it is a new war to this new virus we are fighting in a way which would get america back to work, get our kids back to school. griff: forced states to began relaxing them today. arkansas, colorado, kentucky and mississippi, they joined georgia and montana have done so and ten more plan to rollbacks by the end of the week. the facts on the ground drove his decision. >> i also told oklahomans that we will be data driven and continue to watch the trends and if the percentage of tests start to increase or hospitalizations start increasing that we will kick back one of those phases
5:02 am
and we we can obviously reserve the rights to back up if we need to. griff: meanwhile in just a few hours at you mentioned 10:30 a.m. the small business action start and impose limits on how much they can loan due to high demand and effort to slow the pace and lawmakers already looking for another relief bill. that'll be face 4 and focus on state and local government funding but expect a big fight on capitol hill over that one. brian, ainsley, steve. brian: thanks, griff. keep in mind, if the stores don't provide the safe testing, excuse me, the safety measures, people will not go in and if they do go in no one forced to use any business that might be standing up and keep in mind too that if one of those states may be opening up that might be good news of nba team because of may first, the nba is allowing some
5:03 am
teams to go to practice facilities setting up what mark cuban june restart to the season and right into the playoffs steve? steve: thanks, you're absolutely right. meanwhile let's bring in dr. oz, dr. mehmet oz. she -- he has joined us every day since the pandemic. we heard as states start to reopen, today, tennessee, mississippi and montana are going to have some businesses reopen, it's not going to be like a light switch, you have a better analogy, it's the dimmer, turning the dimmer light up and gets brighter over time, right? and also i want you to comment on scenes of california which seems everybody and their brother went to the breach. [laughter] dr. oz: it's how you open than
5:04 am
when you open. health advisers are involved in decision. the dimmer is a better metaphor than light switch. people will not go if you don't take appropriate precautions. we have to assess what's most effective in the real world. how do you truly test and trade and how do you make sure hospital capacity is there and what are the real guidelines of social distancing and how do you deep the vulnerable safe. the vulnerable population is 90% going to the hospital. let me ask one other item. you don't have to open the whole state at once. some counties as dr. birx mentioned over the weekend are doing better than other counties. governors especially in larger states might want to pick and choose which counties to focus on. ainsley: that's a good point because new york city is different than up state new york and detroit is different than other parts of that state. dr. birx talked over the weekend, she said we are going to still be social distancing
5:05 am
through the summer. we need to continue to do that and she's talking about we need a breakthrough in technology. listen to this. >> but at the same time we have to realize that we have to have a breakthrough innovation and testing. we have to be able to detect antogen than trying to detect viral particles itself and move into testing and i know corporations anding -- and diagnostic and they are working on that at the same time. ainsley: when will that happen, dr. oz? dr. oz: we don't know. it took a while for the flu test to be done, that's an antigen test. but it is the way ultimately this will work.
5:06 am
it's more efficient. that's what dr. birx is hoping for. i'm confident it'll happen. it's very difficult to predict when. that will be driven by the items we discuss earlier. brian: we know about hydroxychloroquine and remdesivir and hospitals are testing heartburn drug as a treatment. can you tell us about this? dr. oz: there are dozens of similar product candidates. the idea from china. doctors observing that people that got sick and folks with age of 80 with heartburn issues who didn't have a lot of money seemed to have done better than expected and the drug used for
5:07 am
heartburn is a drug similar to drug called pomodin, similar to pepcid. pomodin might play a role. they ran the test and some others to see if they can possibly inhibit the ability of the virus to replicate and it's promising. i don't want people running out there and jumping up and down that it works. it has to be done in randomized clinical trials. 200 patients almost enrolled on day one. i heard ten days ago and exciting concept that doctors in my hospital, timothy wang submitted retrospect in paper looking back at patients who had intestinal problems and sent it to internal medicine. we will see what happens with that publication. we have to get the prospective
5:08 am
randomized trial data. it's another month or two for that to happen. several others of this nature and long history of use. makes us feel that it's a safer option. save a lot of time and proving that it's safe. we have to prove that it's efficacious. steve: exactly. apparently administered intravainously and don't go to cosco and buy pills, that's not going to work. dr. oz: it's very high dose. it's iv, lots of things you have to be careful about. we've had discussions about self-treating. these are all doctor-prescribed medications. thanks for bringing that up. steve: okay. i wanted to ask you about something that i read in the pages of the new york post earlier today by scott atlas at the hoover institute out of stanford and he writes, this is
5:09 am
about the data which is what you study all day. of the 8,000 covid deaths fully investigated in new york for underlying conditions, 99.2% of the deaths had underlying illnesses. if you don't have an underlying illness, your chances of actually dying are relatively small, dr. oz. dr. oz: well, this is the whole reason why the cdc recommendations keep vulnerable populations, people with preexisting conditions out of the mainstream of opening up of not just phase 1 but phase 2. i think ultimately that's going to be the biggest crutch we will have as we begin to get america back up again, identifying who is at risk for having a complication, not who gets the virus but who is at risk of getting complication and ending up in a hospital and god forbid in icu and subsequent complications from that.
5:10 am
it's a big clue to us. why it's true, we don't know. moving people from being vulnerable and getting healthier. if you're watching the program, start doing squats, push-ups, losing a little weight probably helps at reducing risk factors and if you can manage diabetes, hypertension, wise move right now. ainsley: dr. oz, there's talk that maybe new york will reopen in mid-may. do you think that's wise or do we need to be on stay at home orders longer? dr. oz: i think the governor is well adviseed. and i do believe parts of new york could open in middle of may, again, dimmer metaphor, not the light switch and essential that we choose and pick what we do and where we do it and based on what we learn pull back. we have to develop real world experiences of social distancing, of keeping the vulnerable safe.
5:11 am
these are realities that we have not worked out yet. as we do it we will figure out how to do it better but we have to start somewhere. brian: stanford made a study and they put their numbers out there that this whole lockdown was overkill compared when you factor in what steve just said and what new york has revealed and gets ridiculed and stanford get ridiculed for the study rather than try to dispute the numbers there's a blowback, how could you write this and how could you come with conclusions. does it bother you that people get political when it comes to something that is maybe counter than their beliefs as opposed to taking on the numbers? has this ever happened like this before? dr. oz: you know, medicine can a political environment as well, but usually we are pretty blunt with each other and can speak to the facts because you can rely on the facts and unfortunately we are seeing this more and more
5:12 am
where people are feeling that if they express honest opinion about an idea there's blowback against them. it is the foundation of what has made science and medicine so successful. politics will play in a different arena but within medicine, it's a difficult terrain, we have to be meticulous. brian: yeah, it's just not happening if you come up, just take somebody on their numbers, they don't have to go after them personally or ridicule the institute especially when it's something like stanford. dr. oz, we will talk to you, thank you so much. dr. oz: thank you. brian: all right, here is jillian, jillian you have the breaking news. jillian: that's right, fox news alert, louisiana police officer dead another critically injured after gunfight with a man wanted for murder. the baton rouge officers were searching for suspect ronnie
5:13 am
tato when he opened fire. >> the call that no chief wants to get, no police officer wants to hear. not only were the police officers public servants, fathers, husbands, loved by their family. jillian: tato taken into custody, the fallen officer hasn't been named. he was a 20-year veteran at the force. north korean paper has proved that kim jong un is alive. the outlet claiming it received a letter from kim jong un thanking construction workers for the job they have done on a new tourist zone. the letter's existence has been confirmed, speculation of the dictator's health are swirling after kim did not appear during north korean holiday honoring his grandfather. the leader has not been seen publicly since april 11th. overnight house speaker nancy pelosi big names to endorse presumptive nominee for
5:14 am
president. >> i'm proud to endorse joe biden for president, a leader who is personification of hope and courage, values, authenticity and integrity. we will deliver bold progress for the people when we have president joe biden in the white house. jillian: speaker arguing joe biden can do a better job guiding america out of the coronavirus crisis. his campaign is set to announce vice president election panel friday. a north carolina family becoming internet super stars with crazy quarantine olympics. the video show it is presley family competing in toilet paper dodge ball, another one whip creme challenge which got messy. they joined me and said it's all in good fun. >> the money was coming off the ceiling fan but it's really -- we drew up a family of having
5:15 am
fun. jillian: prezly's family videos have racked up more than 50 million views. the father like it is money game because he won the most. steve: obviously, because he probably spent the most on those kids. that is awesome. jillian, thank you very much. 8:15 in the east coast. the federal government will start again rolling out billions of dollars in new awes -- ways to small businesses, would that be enough. stuart varney following the money has answers coming up next.
5:18 am
5:20 am
ainsley: starting today new financial relief is rolling out to tune of $310 billion and here with details stuart varney, host of varney & company. hey, stuart. stuart: good morning, ainsley. ainsley: this is great news. tell us the details. stuart: this week that a lot of more money start to flow out the treasury and the week when some money from big businesses start to flow back to the treasury. let's start with the outflow. 10:30 eastern time this morning, the paycheck protection program opens up again. $310 billion worth of aid to go at and you can start applying again as of 10:30 eastern time this morning. ainsley, i'm not sure that this is going to be enough. 1.6 million businesses got $350 billion worth of aid it took them two weeks to go through that money. 1.6 million businesses. there are 30 million businesses in america and now they are
5:21 am
going to go at 300 billion. odds are we will need more than this extra $310 billion that start going out today. that's where we are at, but the money start going out today. some money will be coming back later this week because the treasuries tighten up. they say, look, you big guys, you have to justify the money you've got by may the seventh or give it back and if you don't give it back we will fine you. it's out there. we want the money back if you weren't supposed to get it in the first place and the new money is going out at 10:30 this morning. ainsley: all right, stuart, when we run out of this money and more people apply, do congress pass another stimulus, another relief bill, when do we stop, when is it smart to stop and let things play out as they may? stuart: i think you to see the second trench of small businesses play out and see how many people are left out in the cold, deal with that when you
5:22 am
get there. but the bottom line, ainsley, we have to remember this. total of $7 trillion is going to be put to work in this economy whether it comes from the federal reserve or the treasury, whatever, but that 7 trillion is getting out there rapidly and that's why treasury secretary mnuchin says we will rebound, the economy will start to rebound july, august, september. good news. ainsley: we all hope so. yeah, there are at least 13 of public companies giving money back totaling $700 million, publicly traded corporations and worth millions of dollars and mom and pop who applied for the loan and didn't get it. so this is great news, right? did they put a clarification in this new stimulus bill 3.5 that says big companies can't apply? stuart: it's not worded quite like that but there's the clear intention that those who do not need it should not get it.
5:23 am
let me backtrack for a second. we went through the first $350 billion very rapidly, the big guys well organized with the big banks got in first, the money was exhausted. we needed more money. mitch mcconnell we wanted to provide another $250 billion but speaker delayed for 12 days she delayed. that's when the small business guy who had been left out, they started to complain because we are out. they couldn't get the money because nancy pelosi and the democrats were delaying. well, now we have the new money, 310 billion, start going out at 10:30 this morning. i hope the right people get it. ainsley: yeah, you know, so bad because the small restaurants, are they able to rebound even if they get the money, so many little restaurants on all the streets in new york city, are they going to come back, stuart? stuart: very difficult question to answer. any restaurant has a huge problem. you have to teach social distancing rules way into the
5:24 am
future. how do you fill your restaurant if you have to keep people 6 feet apart? what are you going to do? at best are you going to put maybe half the number of meals served in any given restaurant, at best. that's probably not enough to keep you in business. ainsley: yeah, probably won't have as many people working in the restaurant because fewer mouths to feed and we all have to be patient and hopefully it'll come back soon, thanks, stuart. we will watch your show at 9:00 o'clock. americans demand back to work and millions go without a job, andy mccarthy say it is burden of proof is on the government to justify the closures and he's going to explain that next won't be a new thing. and it won't be their first experience with social distancing. overcoming challenges is what defines the military community.

seems like everybody wants to go back to work and if we are going to continue to have restrictions placed on us, the state has to do a good job of explaining why you can't go back to work unlike somebody like in the neighboring state? >> andy: that's right, steve, we seem to get that backwards when we are in the courthouse. when we are in the courthouse the government has the right to take liberty of brief. the fact that i was a veteran, experienced prosecutor and handled lots of cases didn't mean that i would get to say i proclaim that this person needs to be in custody because he committed a serious crime. i couldn't even do that if i had a scientific expert that could corroborate what i said. everybody knew what the rules were, the burden was on the government. that's how it works across the board and not just in the courthouse. when your fundamental rights are at stake the government has to show that it has a legitimate
5:30 am
interest in regulating. we all know that preventing the spread of infectious disease is certain legitimate government interest but if they are going to burden your fundamental rights, they have to show that they are using the least restrictive legitimate means to do that. it's not like you have to prove that your job is essential, they have to prove that there's no safe way of conducting your job. steve: right. you were talking about the experts. i'm sure that a month and a half ago the experts went to the president, mr. president, if you do not shut down the country, quarter of a million and half of a million people will die and you don't want that on you record and that's the path he took. ultimately we don't know what we don't know. we don't know if the approach is actually working. a year from now we will know whether or not sweden was right where they essentially isolated
5:31 am
the vulnerable and everybody else has not been locked down. andrew: steve, that's a great point. that's the pattern of catastrophes in our country, whether we are talking about natural catastrophes, terrorist attacks or even something like the coronavirus. at the beginning it's perfectly reasonable when we don't know how profound the threat is to give our executives the chance to get their arms around it, but all threats are dynamic and we have to figure out over time, okay, here is what we are dealing with, here is what is at stakes and the interests are and what's the reasonable way of balancing those interests and over time what's supposed to happen is we are supposed to remember that what's at stake here are fundamental rights an government has created first and foremost to protect your fundamental rights, not to regulate them. steve: right. excellent points, andy mccarthy.
5:32 am
andy, thank you very much for joining us. and an great to see you, steve. steve: great to see you as well. today was monday, yesterday was sunday and the houses of worshiped closed for the most part. they are as well taking a financial hit during the pandemic. some may even have to close their doors for good when this is over. timothy cardinal dolan says it's a big problem that needs attention now and so he will join us next. and there's no money out of pocket. call newday right now.
5:36 am
5:37 am
leader and this we do and in trying days especially one nation under god beseeching the almighty guidance on you and your administration. brian: well, cardinal dolan welcoming president trump for sunday live stream mass, that must be pretty cool. the archbishop of new york joins us now. cardinal, that must have been pretty nice have the president join you but also saluted you on twitter, his preferred area where he thanked you what you're doing for the great call, what was your message to the president that he liked so much? >> cardinal: first of all, hey, steve, brian, ainsley. ainsley: good morning. >> cardinal: i missed you. you're right across the street and i can't go over and see you.
5:38 am
it's better than nothing, right? it was good to have the president virtually as we say although we would have preferred to have everybody else with him in person but he's been -- i really absolute his leadership. i absolute the leadership here too of our governor, mayor, everybody that has come through but the president has seen particularly sensitive to the -- to what shall i saw the feelings of the religious community. you were right, saturday he had meeting with large number of leadership in catholic schools across the country and last week i was honored to be part of a broader meeting with a wide variety of interregular hissous -- interreligious leaders and i'm an admiration of his leadership. ainsley: i know it's been recently come out that houses of
5:39 am
worship are struggling financially at this time. can you speak to that? catholic schools are getting short of payments. >> cardinal: i'm kind of afraid to bring it up because there's caricaturing leaders asking for money. i don't mind asking for money and you're right on target, ainsley. this is tough times for all of the churches. i can only speak for my own flock, catholic family. tough times, why, number 1, the income is not coming in like most families, your perish, the dioceses live paycheck to paycheck, they are not coming in. good and growing number of people are realizing the
5:40 am
responsibility and sending it in by mail or electronically, however that's done, but it's still remains ordinary sources of income aren't coming in. you mentioned ainsley tuition for beloved schools an benefactors who come through they are being hit hard too. there's one reason why this is a tough fiscal time for the religious congregations of america and number 2, the demands are bigger. who do people go to at times of trial? most often they are knocking at directory door or they are calling their pastors and saying, we are in trouble making the rents, we need some help with groceries and the church has always come through. that's our sacred obligation given us by the lord and the bible, so there's a -- while the income is less, the demands are even greater, ainsley, delicate topic. i hesitate to bring it up because we are concerned about a lot more than money. we are concerned about the
5:41 am
health of our people. we are praising the generosity of those people. we are rallying together to get back into -- into some type of normal routine, but, yeah, thanks for asking because it is a tough financial time for the churches. steve: well, it is and you mentioned, cardinal, this isn't appeal for the catholic church but appeal for everybody in your line of work whether you're catholic, christian, muslim, jewish, you know, all of your houses of worship are being impacted by this, but at the same time, you know, you preside over a very large school district as well, the school, catholic school and i was talking to somebody on phone calls with you and the president and they were talking about how looking forward. it's one thing where for instance, this month if you have a choice between making the
5:42 am
payment to the arch dioecies of the school or buying groceries, i'm sorry, cardinal, you're not getting payment on time. people start putting in the application fee and applying to have children go into schools and other private school. nobody is doing that right now because nobody has the money and nobody knows what the future holds. ainsley: that's right. >> cardinal: steve once again, bingo, we will probably survive till the end of this academic year. the end of june if we are able to get back at all. by the way schools are are in session and teachers get a pluses. we are worried about next year because this is the time people are applying and we are worried, oh, boy, as we are begin to go
5:43 am
budget next year i'm afraid that we will be unable to afford beloved tuition and so we are really worried about next year. bravo, we've got heroic donor that is have come through and we have the promise of our leaders and as i said, especially president trump who really show ed solicitude for catholic schools. bravo, i hope we can recuperate and i don't mind telling you in addition to many other things i'm praying for, the sick, those who are worried about those who got the virus and those heroic people tending to them and i'm also besieged in the lord for financial responsibility for his
5:44 am
church. brian: a lot of times people are unemployed for the first time in their leaves off 30, 40 years. they will go to the pantry in the at lick church or whatever other churches have and you don't want to turn anybody away especially when the feed america lines are wrapped around the block in certain states and won't have anything. how at one point do you see funds depleted on the secondhand see the so much need. how do you handle that? >> yeah, indeed, there is. you know what happened, ainsley, brian and steve, on saturday i buried two missionaries and they have 3 homes in arch dioceses and i'm talking and asking how they are doing and the first thing they say to me, well, we are still able to have our daily
5:45 am
food line because the need is all the greater. the sisters realize their god-giving responsibility to care for the hungry and the poor and even at the risk of their own health they are doing it but they are stretched too. those sisters never worry and they have humble sense and confident in the lord that we all should have. you're right, where do people go, they go to the church. we don't want to say the cover is empty. just like jesus with 5,000 with loaves of fish. ainsley: the choice of church and grocery, you're obviously going to feed your family. the benefit of giving money to a religious organization is that they use that money to go back into the community and help those that are really in need, so we are all in this together.
5:46 am
>> cardinal: i was told a beautiful story of father of family that went out to do the shopping and had 4, 5 grocery bags in the back and pulls off to catholic charities pantry, those four bags are for the family and here is a bag for the food pantry. i thought my, oh my, what a beautiful sense of sharing god's gift with those in need. i hope that attitude trumps here. ainsley: yes, sir. thank you so much, cardinal. >> cardinal: thank you, everybody, god bless. i look forward coming over. ainsley: thank you. jillian is back in the studio and she has headlines. jillian: he's so great. good morning to you, guys. police investigating a drive-by shooting in louisiana home of star, 10 shots were fired. bullet striking a window where robertson's son, wife and infant child were staying. police arresting daniel king, jr. charging him with aggravating assault.
