3:01 am
continue across the country. >> we are open! we are open! jason: demonstrators seen here in nevada soming the nation's capitol, demanding that officials lift restrictions this is "fox & friends." it's sunday. glad to be with you, jillian, pete. big show tonight. got three of my former colleagues, heinz, collins, devin nunez joining us today. lots to talk about. jillian: absolutely. pete: good morning, jillian. we almost have a quorum call here in the house of representatives, when jason chaffetz is on the show. jason: more than house of representatives in washington, d.c. nancy will not get them together. we might as well get them together on fox. pete: there is controversy about them declining tests in the house. senate will be to reopen. you showed footage, jason. protests continue across the country. protest in red and blue states. we'll get to that.
3:02 am
but the big story right now is america reopening. it is happening across the country. we have a map some of the places tomorrow, monday, may 4th, a big day with the month ahead of us. month of may. there are a list of states opening up. a lot are red or purplish states. we're talking about elective surgeries. gyms and fitness centers. retail establishments. excepting in counties in florida, beauty, nail, salon shops, construction, office environments. in each state the protocals are different. in each one of these cases starting to see, hey, guys, time to get back out there. businesses will still be held accountable to make sure they're being respectable. ultimately customers will have to feel like they can trust where they're going which is the biggest accountability. >> that is one of the biggest things, customers have to feel safe wherever they're going. whether to a salon or restaurant or just the local hardware store the customers have to be safe.
3:03 am
that is one of the biggest things business owners are focused on as they attempt to reopen. jason: nine states were not on the initial list. the open something broader than that. still a long ways to go, about beaches, going outdoors. you have heard me time and again, i still don't understand why president trump, the department of interior, hasn't opened up our national parks. they said so 11 days ago they're going to open them but they're still not open. there is still a long ways to go. i think it is moving in the right direction, if people take personal responsibility. wash their hands, do those things we need to do to suppress the spread of the virus. that has to happen. pete: i think we'll see that, jason. tri-state, new jersey, connecticut, going to personal experience, grocery store, liquor store, everyone is doing just that. they're using hand sanitizer. staying away. they're wearing masks if the
3:04 am
place requires it. you see that in certain states. you see states where it is not happening even more protesters. the protests where they happened yesterday across the country. i'm sure we will get texts that you missed my state. there were smaller protests not necessarily accounted for across the country. a lota lot of red or purplish ss are opening up. that is red and blue america. democrat governors with big cities, feels like the state is being one certain way, when there could be a county by county approach. don't being surprised if the protests continue. jillian: i want to point out what is going on in new york and chicago here. this is the talk the last few days. nypd sent out 1000 officers to enforce social distancing measures. weather has been nice. a lot of people are tired of being in their houses. so the nypd sent more people out. the officers told to break up
3:05 am
crowds and gatherers. i don't have information how they had to break up if any. in chicago mayor lori lightfoot that police would issue citations and possibly arrest residents who don't follow stay-at-home orders. saturday she doubled down. we will shut you down, cite you and take you to jail. police broke up gathererses of 100, to 150 on saturday. that is what is going on two states to give you examples. jason: a lot of people are very concerned about it. congressman crenshaw actually weighed in on this. find out what he had to say about the issue. >> we understand that in texas. we haven't put crazy draconian measures in place that caused people to riot. you have seen that in other states. why are they doing that. the people understand some rules being placed on them don't make any sense. they will not respect rules that are not respectable.
3:06 am
pete: you raised a good point about chicago. if they were only aggressive in gang violence that wrecked the city for decade. citizens meeting in homes. sure you should be responsible about that. there will be a point that goes too far. i love the last part of dan crenshaw's statement. people will not respect laws that are not respectable. it is goodness. reasonableness. it is common sense. personal responsibility jason, which you talked about. ultimately is what governors should be dialing in on. jillian: my point, it will be longer this goes on, warmer weather, to keep people inside. people are itching to get outside to have freedom. jason: when they're letting prisoners out, violent prisoners out so they can be out in the public, then people are not going to understand that. now, the senate, the united states senate is gathering tomorrow. they're coming back to work, amazing how postal workers and tsa workers and some other
3:07 am
people, truckers, and people in grocery stores are working but the senate is finally coming back into session. meanwhile nancy pelosi, the speaker of the house, says, no, we're not going to come back to work. listen to what jim jordan, the congressman out of ohio had to say about this. >> farmers are planting crops. truckers are moving goods. grocers are stocking shelves. front line health care workers never missed a day in the last six weeks but somehow congress can't come back to work. task force meeting in the white house. task force meeting across the country. the task force that is supposed to meet when our nation has a big issue to deal with is the united states congress. we're just not doing that. let's get back to work and do the peoples business. jillian: here is joint statement from nancy pelosi and mitch mcconnell. congress is grateful for the administration's generous offer to deploy rapid covid-19 testing capabilities to capitol hill but we respectfully decline the offer at this time. our country's testing capacities are continuing to scale up
3:08 am
nationwide. con guess -- congress wants to direct to facilities where they can do the most good, most quickly. congress will use current testing pretties calls. the office of attending physician has put in place until speedier technologies become more widely available. on one hand i understand it. a lot of people, i a lot of people do need tests. a lot of people on front lines can't get tests. i hear from viewers, my sister, or my brother or my mom is a nurse still can't get these tests. where are these tests. i understand them wanting to save the tests for those who need it until everybody has access to them. we're getting to the point. pete: it feels disinagain just, with all respect to mitch mcconnell i don't know why he signed on the statement this is excuse of nancy pelosi effectively say we can't go back toe work. the white house says we need you to go back to work. here are a couple of test es. i mitch mcconnell feels just
3:09 am
fine coming back to work. nancy pelosi looking for every excuse she can fine. the president feels that way about it as well. he tweeted about it. no reason to turn it down instead of politics. maybe you need a new doctor. crazy nancy will use it as excuse not to show up to work. people are wondering if congress carpet convene at a moment of crisis to address the needs of people who are hurting, then when are they useful? jason: the president is exactly right. it is only politics. there is no reason why the house shouldn't have been in session weeks and weeks ago. dr. moynihan there at the house of representatives, is actually used to be my doctor when i was -- he is a fine, fine man. they will do everything they can to protect people. if everybody else will go to work they can certainly do it. >> let's go to this for a second. we have a fox news exclusive. the woman accusing of joe biden of sexual assault says she is being targeted online. pete: our own garrett tenney is
3:10 am
is live with more as the former vp doubles down. good morning. reporter: tara reade has received a onslaught of harrassment and threats. things have gotten so bad she says she is now concerned about the safety of her family. in an interview with fox news she said, i find it astounding the hip pock express sy democrats are talking about women being able to tell their story safely. i'm a democrat, a live long democrat, here i am talking about my history with joe biden and i'm just the target of online harrassment. reade also says she doesn't remember if she used the words sexual harrassment or assault in the complaint she filed in 1993, she does remember describing how biden made her uncomfortable by alleging wanting her to serve drinks and he liked her legs and thought she was pretty. this weekend in his second quarter interview over the allegations biden denied he ever
3:11 am
sexually assaulted reade. >> i'm saying unequivocally, it never happened, period. women have a right to be heard and the press should rigorously investigate the claims like these. i always uphold those principles. but in the end in every case the truth is what matters and in this case the truth is, these claims are false. reporter: tara reade also told "the wall street journal" right now she is not ready to respond to biden's denials, but she says she will be ready to respond shortly. she will have a lot more to say. back to you all. pete: garrett. there were reports she might do an interview today or soon but backed off that as you mentioned. tara reade a democrat with an onslaught coming at her. we'll see how this plays out. turning now to other stories we're following this morning starting with this fox news alert. overnight north and sought cree exchanging the gunfire at the dmz. no one was injured.

dealing with for the last few months. multiple times you tried to get off the ship and get home but you haven't been able to. >> no. we haven't. we've been without guests since march 13th. even before that i hadn't touched land since february 23rd. so it has been quite a long time since we touched dry land. we've been working with the barbados government as well as the u.s. embassy here in bridge town to try to arrange commercial flights or charter flights back to the u.s. for american citizens. we have been on board -- jillian: what information are you getting? >> we're getting very little information. right now we finally got approval for american citizens on this ship, odyssey to fly home on a commercial flight via american airlines and go home to return to our families. however, american airlines just canceled all commercial flights
3:19 am
from bridge town. we're stuck on the ship even longer. we're hoping the company, carnival corporation, or the u.s. government will arrange a charter flight for american citizens to return home. jillian: do you get scared at any point you guys will run out of food or anything like that? how is that working? >> unfortunately yeah, we are stuck here. we're anchored in bridgetown. we've been stuck on the ship, quarantined to our rooms 14 days without being able to leave except for meals. however the ships are being allowed to dock and get provisions, get frush water, fresh food. we have plenty of food. we will be here for quite some time. they're just not allowing us to leave the ship. jillian: at least good you have food. you have no idea when you will come home? i know that american airlines flight you mentioned for may 8th, that is canceled. no word of anything beyond that? >> no. jetblue and american airlines have no commercial flights.
3:20 am
we're still waisting to for maybe a charter flight available, but as of now we could be here for another month or even longer. we are hoping that the u.s. government, the cdc, can lift these restrictions so maybe we can sail to the states and american citizens can leave at a u.s. port but here in bridgetown. we're stung. jillian: here is what the cdc director says, robert redfield. we're working to address health and safety of crew at sea and community surrounding u.s. cruise ships point of entry. brian, quick before we go, what is the mood of everyone? are you guys able to help each other out? >> we're trying to stay positive but it is very hard. we're calling it "the twilight zone" or "groundhog day." it is definitely tough mentally to be on the ship this long. jillian: ryan, we wish you nothing but the best. keep us update the.

3:25 am
for women? mark penn was chief strategist to hillary clinton's 2008 campaign and he joins us now to discuss. mark, you're one of the more respected people in the industry. chairman of the "harris poll." it seems like hillary clinton is hovering, but isn't it a little hypocritical or just, disingenuous, her position on biden given what is going on right now? >> well, i was someone who thought all along that hillary would run for president again but she didn't and frankly i think speculation now, i hate to pour cold water on it i think speculation she is quote waiting in the wings, is overblown. i think, i think biden was really finished strong. he has the delegates, he has the nomination. he is not going anywhere. he is going to handle these charges against him. hillary handled the charges against her as they related to the email server.
3:26 am
he will handle these charges. trump handled charges against him. every nominee for every office has quote, charges that he or she is going to have to handle. i don't think he is going anywhere. i think he is the nominee of the democratic party and will stay that way. jason: i want to move now to general flynn. it's a key, key topic. i am surprised democrats are not more concerned about it but the flynn documents really are a bit of a smoking gun. you've written about this, give us your perspective on the situation? >> i do think the recent documents about the flynn interview by fbi agents who before they did the interview, it was not an interview to find out information but before they did the interview had a discussion at the highest levels about getting him to lie, persecute him, getting him to be fired. he was under investigation for no good reason in the first
3:27 am
place. the steele investigation, the steele dossier was the major piece of information behind this. it did not reference flynn. flynn was being investigated because he, quote, knew a bunch of russians which of course the national security advisor probably would, and that investigation, the fbi itself wrote was groundless when they went after him. they deliberately targeted him. this is a real smoking gun. that those at the fbi were out of control and abused this country. jason: well, remember, general flynn worked for the obama administration. he served our country for decades in the united states military but the media had, i mean, let's give a flashback here, of some of the things that the media was saying about general flynn back in the day. >> the evidence is incontrovertible. why the administration is trying to defend general flynn by blaming the obama administration is one of the mysteries here. >> michael flynn was betraying his country.
3:28 am
>> the intelligence community was the thought was, michael flynn may have been a turned agent to russian intelligence. >> flynn lied again and again and again. clearly, a very significant milestone, when the former national security advisor of the united states has to plead guilty to lying to federal authorities. jason: there we go, adam schiff talking again without looking at the actual facts but where do you think this case is going from here, mark? >> i certainly expect this judge to be incredibly upset that this information didn't go earlier to the defense. it is explosive in nature. i completely agree with that. i don't think there is any other reading of this information other than, they were not trying to investigate crimes. they were trying to create crimes here. that is exactly what they were out there to do, bypassing all normal channels in order to get the new incoming national
3:29 am
security advisor, who, by the way, the fbi itself on january 4th concluded was of course was not a russian agent. which was ludicrous in the first place. jason: yeah. mark penn, thank you. have a great sunday morning. we appreciate you joining us. >> thank you. jason: all right. coming up, he risked his life for the country but now it is business that's at risk. with maine under extended shutdown we'll talk to army veteran staff sergeant travis mills about what this means for his foundation, his employees, after the break.

beautiful. jason: love. that love those shots. jillian: never gets old. jason: while many states are moving towards reopening maine will remain on lockdown until june. but with relatively low number of cases some business owners are questioning if it is worth the economic damage. pete: our next guest risked his life, a lot of his body for our country but now it is his business at risk. he own as lodge in the state of maine where he hosts veterans and their families free of charge. stuart: joining us is army veteran, staff sergeant travis mills. thank you, first of all for serving our country. thank you for being here. we appreciate it. >> thanks for having me, you champions. you guys look phenomenal these days. jillian: back at you. i actually lived in maine, this time much year, you're ramping up for the busy season where it gets beautiful in maine come the summertime. if this continues how much money do you stand to lose? >> so we have, i'm getting hit in three faces of this. i'm a motivational speaker, can't gather with over 10 people
3:35 am
that has come to a pretty good halt. i'm also a owner of a lodge and a marina that is a for-post business and we're being told we can't have guests come in until june, if they're maine residents. we can't have out-of-state residents until july, if they're not staying two weeks they can't come. i stand to lose about one hundred thousand dollars. and then $200,000 in july. it probably keeps going up. if we don't do something about it, i'm 33, i will have to figure out what my options are. because i have a mortgage still to pay. you know, it is not, it is not a opinion of mine that. this is political thing. someone has to get in here and do something, at 33 i will not go bankrupt. if i put my back against the wall, either open up take the consequences or close down or go bankrupt. i will open up. a lot of people on you guys have had rick savage come on.

at my non-profit, travis mills foundation, we're bringing up families who have been through combat and physical injuries. we're not able to, we had to cancel a run raiser. you know, we're doing donations through that case, but i just, i want people to be safe but i also at what point do we say enough is enough? jason: let me ask you, first of all, thank you for your service. if you had a message to your governor, what would you say to the governor? >> well you know, i talked with the governor. i put a call into her aide and i talked with the governor. she is very nice person but i happen to ask, you know, governor mills, who is going to help pay my mortgage? who will help me, you know, get through this? and all the other businesses out there, when you get hand ad memorandum that says 25% of small businesses in the state of maine are going to shut down if you go through with this, and
3:37 am
you go through with it, that is an issue that is a problem. i want to know what is the comprehensive plan. i think new hampshire is something we can look at. they had roundtable discussions with every single industry. they were able to come up with something i think, very, helpful for their entire state to keep pushing forward. and i'm just very excited about, you know, you guys giving me the chance to talk and my business partner zach stuart and i are trying to push forward to figure out what we'll do. pete: travis, you're right, it is not political at all. it is about livelihood. honestly, what is the rational you're being given? why can't you responsibly reopen, say a marina with social distancing and allow people today to do that? why would they tell uh-oh, you got to wait another month two, months? >> you know the problem we're having we can't book rooms in the future either. why can't people come? i don't know. my lodge is single rooms open to the outside air. we have great social distancing
3:38 am
and i just file like, what have we done? we kicked the can down the road and we tried to find different drugs that will help us. there is no vaccine coming for quite a while. we open up there will be more coronavirus cases but more testing we do, we're going to see that, it is way more widespread than ever imagined and nowhere near as deadly as it us being portrayed. but the reason is the governor saying look at new york city and all their cases. look at massachusetts. new york city is 19 times the size of maine. we have 1100 cases here, with 33 hospitalizations and 52 deaths. it is awful and sad but we can't live in fear. we have to get out there if we know the right thing, cdc given guidelines, wash your hands, if you got them. i wash my one hand. pete: you know travis mills, you know he has a sense of humor. you lost your limbs in afghanistan serving our country. you put a smile on your face

social distancing. yet the governor wants to shut down the beaches. weren't let you go out, exercise, go to parks. three counties, that will flat-out defy, three counties will defy governor newsom. pete: the counties are modach, i don't know if i'm pronouncing that correctly, sutter and uva. the others are suburbs of sacramento which is near the capital. ultimately they're saying in sutter county there have been 31 cases covid-19. in yuba, 19 cases much. they're effectively saying, governor newsom you are giving no timeline how long you keep the counties locked down. as a result we're opening up. we'll open up restaurants, malls, gyms, salons, other service industries, they say directly with appropriate business modifications to insure social distancing. so this is a crack for governor newsom who has, really not handled this well. look what happened at the beaches. how he is now treating one beach
4:02 am
different than the others. people are saying listen, i can apply common sense. it is beautiful. i will go out to the beach with my family. i understand the risks involved but also the upside of getting out. this will continue because counties, basically say, listen, don't treat us like all of california. you see that in all the other states. we'll see where this goes. whether more counties will effectively defy the governor. what they will do. jillian: you mentioned the three counties. moda, let's listen to what some. residents have to say about this. >> for our community, it is tight-knit, it is incredibly important for us to start opening back up. >> we needed to put out some guidelines. businesses were going to start opening with or without our blessing. we needed to to insure the safety, the health and safety of our community. we needed to get out guidelines for them. jillian: if you get out guide lines, i think majority of people, not saying everyone, a majority of people will follow the guidelines if it involves

4:04 am
time. come outside. that is great for a walk. respect the social distancing. look at difference there. pete: look out for bill de blasio's conduct police. they might take a picture of you. jillian: i know. pete: if officials are reasonable, people respond accordingly. i love what the last person said. businesses would start opening up anyway. because at this point, people are very well-informed. they have been at home. they have been watching the news. reading the news. they understand what this virus represents. who it targets. who is vulnerable, whether they're at risk. they're willing to say i've done my part. we understand the hospital system where i'm at is not flooded. we can prevent it from being overwhelmed being responsible in the social distancing. but i'm opening up. i'm opening up the restaurant. when i do and 12 and two dozen other stores on main street do as well. will you shut those down as people responsibly go about their lives to earn a living they're not suffering even worse? the virus is one thing. if you lose your livelihood in the process it makes it that

much more worse. you know, we've been saying it all morning but you can respect people with reasonable policies. jason: yeah, no, i think that's right. we need to move on. there is another topic. new documents out there, senior officials telling fox news that the leaked, so-called five is dossier claiming china intentionally hid evidence of the covid-19 pandemic is consistent with what u.s. is finding. senator ted cruz, one of the more influential members there in the united states senate had this to say about china? >> china is, in my judgment the single greatest geopolitical threat the united states faces over the nexentry. they are directly responsible for this pandemic that has killed over 240,000 people worldwide because of the heroic physician whistle-blowers tried to blow the whistle, tried to stop this at the outset, the chinese communist government
4:06 am
came down on them. we used to think of their suppression of speech as a human rights issue. we now know, it is clear to everyone this is a national security issue and this is public health issue. pete: senator cruise is precisely right. the whistleblowers don't have their whistles anymore because they're dead or in jail. the regime would do anything to cover up they were responsible for this. he is exactly right. i hope this moment is an opportunity for americans to realize what a threat china is. they are our enemy. they have used their wealth which they stole from us to empower the communist party and try to project the strength around the world while using our corporations against us including silicon valley. and we need to ask our companies to make a decision, are you an american company, or will you do the bidding of the chinese? just to have access to their market. the president is aware of this. he is strong on it from the beginning. this type of intelligence only strengthens that case. jillian: let's talk about this

4:08 am
what do you think? jason: i was surprised. he was the chief strategist for hillary clinton in 2008. i was surprised he really did think hillary clinton was going to run in this election cycle but, that she didn't. all eyes are who will joe biden pick as his vice president. he eliminated half the population, saying he wasn't going to pick a male vice president, he was going to pick a female. who is it going to be that is the question facing biden especially context of sexual harrassment and inappropriate conduct questions. pete: how bad of a candidate once you secure the nomination, first question, who might replace you and might be the one who lost last time. people didn't want her to be president of the united states. this is all bad news for joe biden. his camp can't want speculation someone else might step in but you can't avoid it with his performance from the basement. his inability to effectively

articulate basic coherence, formidable president trump, "gallup poll" up 6% the last two weeks. they're looking around, who else, we need someone who can just form a sentence. i don't think it would be hillary clinton. i would be shocked but the fact, he is still the presumptive nominee until the virtual convention in milwaukee actual happens, and they put a stamp on it a lot of questions around joe biden right now. jillian: a lot of questions to be answered. mean time let's talk about some headlines a live look at capitol hill where senators return to work tomorrow despite concerns over covid-19. the house though will not be back. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell and nancy pelosi declining an offer of quick covid-19 tests offered by the white house. they say those should go to front line workers. it is not clear when the house plans to return. overnight, north and south korea exchanging gunfire at the dmz. no one was injured. the gunfire comes one day after north korea broadcast images of leader kim jong-un appearing in

matters. in this case the truth is, these claims are false. jason: former vice president joe biden, doubling down on his denial of a sexual assault claim made by former staffer tara reade but is that enough? our next guest had a former staffer who also came forward last year about a past encounter with joe biden. here to weigh in, democratic congressman jim himes from connecticut. pleasure and honor of serving with congressman himes. i have to tell the viewers at home, he has a solid reputation of working with republicans. i kind of wish we had more of that on both sides of the aisle. congressman, jim, i appreciate you joining us here this morning. >> good morning, jason. jason: the vice president is now out there making statements about the tara reade allegation but as you know last year "the hartford courant" reported about amy lapos, who worked for you, in 2009, there was this
4:17 am
allegation that one of your fund-raisers, the vice president came to your fund-raiser, and that she had this encounter with the vice president. how do you react to this and how should the public look at this, because, this is another allegation of the vice president acting inappropriately? >> well, jason, first of all, there is a distinction between the charge that tara reade has made that the vice president has denied, inappropriate behavior, and what amy lapos alleged. amy lapos alleged something that basically vice president, vice president biden gave her a hug that was a little much of a hug. there is a distinction there. there is no excuse whatsoever to put a woman in a position where she feels uncomfortable but there is a distinction. so what i think needs to happen here, jason, vice president biden denied this very serious allegation from tara reade.
4:18 am
that investigation need to occur. you're a fair-minded guy. what is good for the goose, is good for the dander, two dozen allegations against president trump which he admits to enjoying the behaviors the vice president is accused of on a hollywood access tape, those also need to be investigated. jason: well, at the time that it happened i actually did call it out and i called it inappropriate. >> yeah. jason: i want to read a statement from the, i want to read a statement though, from this, from the woman that was at your fundraiser, it was a staffer of yours. she said this he put his hand around my neck. when he was pulling me in, i thought he was going to kiss me on the mouth. i never filed a complaint to be honest because he was the vice president. i was nobody. there was a line of respect. crossing that line is not grandfatherly. she goes on and says, she didn't believe, at least according to the article that it was sexual
4:19 am
in nature but she called it highly inappropriate and enough so that it generated this article, and, it is not the first or the second one that we've heard about this. >> yeah. look, and, you can make a blanket statement that anybody in public life or frankly, anybody, anywhere should not engage in behavior that makes women feel uncomfortable, and, amy lappos was a staffer. i was actually at that event. i guess she felt uncomfortable by a hug or a touch, she herself read she says was not sexual. that is not pa good thing. again the difference between that and, you were an elected politician once too. there is a lot of handshaking, there is a lot of hugging going on, there is a risk that somebody might feel that was a little much that is radically
4:20 am
different proposition than the tara reade thing which the vice president categorically denied or the accusations leveled against president trump of sexual harrassment. you have to draw a line there between discomfort and what could be illegal behavior. jason: let me move on. i will try to hit another topic in a short time we have. president trump has accused former fbi officials were targeting general flynn and we've heard, had new information that was revealed. donald trump tweeted out this. he said, the russia hoax is the biggest political scandal in american history. treason. let's see how it ends. i can tell you one of the concerns, congressman, is that you have literally thousands of documents now put forward by the inspector general talking about fisa abuse, malfeasance at the top of the echelon there at the fbi, and yet the committee you sit on, the house intelligence
4:21 am
committee, has never called in inspector general horowitz to hear about this. why not? >> well, you know, first of all, mike flynn, let's start, since you started there, mike flynn lied to the fbi. he admitted he lied to the fbi and he said in testimony that he did not feel that he had been set up. okay? so anybody who has ever watched a police show knows that the police before an interview they probably know more than they're going to tell you they know. so mike flynn lied to fbi, like roger stone, like -- jason: congressman, i hate to do this to you, we have a hard out. i have got to go. thank you so much for joining us. "fox & friends" will be right back. hi, i'm bob harper,

4:23 am
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. if you can't afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help.

4:34 am
you got back after saying good things about donald trump? >> well, first of all, obviously that the democratic party does not care about the black vote. they have taken it for granted and they certainly do not have room under so-called big tent for those of us who are black and independent with conservative leanings. and so i was very disappoint about what they have been doing. my, i'm going to make it known how they're treating african-americans. they don't take our vote as for value. they think it will just be there for them. no longer are we going to be a part of that. as i mentioned, i left the plantation, turned the lights, h off and given that to somebody else. pete: i salute you for your corerage. another thing for the democrat to say this. and express support for the president how you feel about him. you tweeted coming to the realization. what was that process, coming to this realization?
4:35 am
>> let me be clear. this president has shown two great things, one is leadership. two is results. what he has done for the african-american community is unparalleled to any president in modern times. and so i put my party last. i put my country before my party. and i wish more people would do that. this country can get many other things accomplished and done for its people, for the american people. so president trump, through opportunity zone districts, through helping historical black colleges i attended north cable line central university, as well as when you look what he has done for the economy, in creating jobs. clearly the criminal justice reform act which joe biden helped craft that bill that literally incarcerated massive amounts of black people. to think that a plaque person would want to vote for joe biden doesn't make sense. donald trump has a proven record of getting things done, period, for all americans, certainly what he has done for americans,

4:37 am
suppression by the democratic party. they're literally trying to suppress blacks to want to vote for donald trump. they want to ostracize them, they want to criticize them that is the real voter suppression we should be fighting. that is what i plan to fight. jason: well, representative, i got to tell you, all you ask for people on both sides of the aisle to call balls and strikes the way they see them. so hats off to you. pete: yeah. >> that is it, calling balls and strikes, putting my country before my party. electing leaders who really get the job done. you know, one person in the crowd is majority. if i have to take the hits for it, fine. i want to make sure that black people, and american people know what the democratic party is doing. they have been run by plantation owners. blacks who are working for us, should listen to their message. they're merely plantation workers. leave that. think independently. be who you are. be conservative like you've always been.

we had congressman jim himes, i feel so bad that i had to come off a little early, we had a hard out, but we also have somebody else i served with in congress. it's one of the hardest working people i know in congress, it's congressman doug collins georgia. he was the ranking member, but now since he's running for the united states senate, but he is joining us this morning, and we're thrilled to have him here. and, congressman, i want to tell you, the government is asking postal workers to go to work, and they're managinged to do it. but nancy pelosi doesn't seem to want congress to go back to work. what's up with that? >> oh, jason, you know this, she likes being in control. as long as she can keep us out of there, it's just leadership that makes decisions. when she can centralize leadership, then she centralizes the focus on her instead of the american people, instead of the agenda. speaker pelosi has made this more about her and her agenda than she has what the president -- the president's been leading. the president's leading from out
5:02 am
front, him and the vice president, they're been doing what needs to be done. we need to come back in, but speaker pelosi likes to hold the control. that's what it seems like to us because there's no reason the house should not be beginning to come back in. we can make the arrangements, do what we need to do, but i believe this is about control. we've seen it through impeachment, through mueller, she likes to have control, and this is what this is all about. pete: the president giving her every opportunity. here's a joint statement, raised an eyebrow from me, from nancy pelosi and mitch mcconnell: congress is grateful for the administration's offer, but we respectfully deline the offer at this time. our country's testing capacities are continuing to scale up, and congress wants to keep directing resources to the front-line facilities. the president tweeted in response to that saying: no reason to turn it down except if politics. we have plenty of testing. crazy nancy will use it as an excuse not to show up to work.
5:03 am
i'm not quite sure why mitch mcconnell signed on to that joint statement since he's opening up the senate, but is there any reason? you said control, and it's right, but the nation's business is supposed to be happening here, and she's awol. >> well, it is. i mean, look, we can make all the jokes, again, it's about control. and i think this is the concern for most of us. i've been working 24/7 it seems like for the last little bit on the response if georgia. i've been having to do it from home, going to my office, keeping safe, but it's time to start looking ahead. when we start look at not only the response that we've had, let's make sure we can have our committee hearings, make sure the proper aid is going where it needs to be going. we've had people not getting aid, let's make sure we're going what we should with doing in congress. but we've got to look forward. our country is reeling. we've got national defense authorization act, appropriation
5:04 am
bills, it's time to show leadership. leadership leads from the front, not from the back. nancy pelosi needs to bring the house back in or at least have a plan. right now we don't even have a plan to come back in. jillian: let's talk about some of these states that are going to be opening finish easing restrictions, i should say. eleven states, and, you know, georgia's been the topic of a lot of conversation. some businesses have chosen to open, here's a quote from the restaurant industry: restaurant owners understand the serious challenge ahead of our industry and our enormous responsibility to manage this crisis thoughtfully. we agree that it's in the best interests of our employees, our guests, our communities and our industry to keep our dining rooms closed at this time, recognizing that each operator faces incredibly difficult decisions on the path ahead, we affirm the fact that public safety is the top prior the city as we navigate the challenge. you know, sir, at least they have the choice to be able to reopen if they want, but some people are choosing not to. that's their decision, but other
5:05 am
states don't have the choice right now. >> report in. i mean, the -- that's right. the president has made it clear. with the guidelines that are there, we need to follow what the tax force has said. but as we do so like here in georgia, those that want to open back, have that ability. we've got to understand this virus did not affect every state the same way and not even inside the state the same way. and there's got to be flexibility for those places that were not hit as heavy that they can open back up to not just blanketly -- it's like punishing the whole class when only one person was doing something wrong. local involvement is important, and that's why we're seeing businesses be able to make that choice. it's time we start looking at the health benefits but also the economic crisis and make sure we move forward so that people have choices, and they can make those choices. it's always been much better than government making those choices for them. jason: yeahing congressman, i think you're absolutely right. if a business chooses not to
5:06 am
open, that's their right as well. in the little time we have left, i want to get your take on this general flynn situation. there's this deep concern, you and i personally have been involved in this about the upper echelon of the fbi. i worry that it has not been cleaned up. but the revelation of these new documents and new notes about the intent and the planning, the ambush, if you will, that happened with general flynn there in the white house, what's your take on that, and where do you see that going next? >> jason, glad you brought that up because you and i, many others have been looking at this. we know this was going on. we could tell through the documents, we knew if we could continue to find out, we could see the corrupt cabal over there of comb and mccabe, strzok and page, jim comey used -- and he said it -- used the first weeks of the administration to attack basically this president. he'd already been doing it through the candidacy. it shows that he wants to play superman, and it's a shame.
5:07 am
i want to remind people, if they can do this to general flynn, they can do it to anybody. andrew mccabe was one that actually approved, this he lied to his own colleagues, was not charged. he was fired but never charged. and yet they charged general flynn with lying. this is nothing more than an attack on a candidate and then on a sitting president. that's why this has to be investigated, has to stop. pete: well, there is an investigation ongoing. the president referred to it yesterday in a tweet. he said the russia hoax the biggest political scandal in history. treason. let's see how this ends, question mark. you've got bill barr, you've got durham doing this investigation, and reports are they've been in communication regularly. where does this end? >> bill barr appointed another u.s. attorney, jensen, to actually look into this flynn case, and i think that's why you're seeing movement now. but when you see notes where
5:08 am
they were actively targeting general flynn, actively subverting the rules and protocols, i think durhaming is building a case. he's got access to everything he needs, and it's also why you'll see the cabal scurrying around, because they're scared. i think we're going to see accountability. that's what we've all wanted from day one, and it's time to do. that's you should never be able to attack a candidate for president just because you don't like him to have insurance policies or whatever else you want. you can't use the fisa court and the methods at your ability. if they can do it to a candidate and a president, they can do it to you and me. jillian: and i think it's hard for a lot of people who look at the headlines and see all the back and forth. for a lot of people then who might lose faith in, you know, our officials that now more than ever it's important that we have. that's. >> oh, very much so. look, we all serve in the public trust, or being out there and making sure we're being accountable to people. you can't be in a position at the department of justice -- the
5:09 am
obama department of justice has become a political haven at the top especially. we saw that with the clinton e-mail situation, with the russia investigation and then we saw it manifold itself into the impeachment saga. so this is just something that's going on and people don't need to forget it because the bureaucrats want you to forget it, and this corrupt cabal would love for you to forget it. pete: very much. real quick, we only have a moment left, you're going for the u.s. senate in georgia, give us an update. >> the people have responded well. they know me, they know that i'll fight for this president, this country and the conservative matters. we're leading in the polls by a large margin, but we're not going to stop. we're looking forward to carrying this fight, continuing with the president four more years. pete: representative, thank you so much for your time. >> great to be with you all. pete: turning now to a few additional headlines. overnight, north and south korea

jason: governor, the outdoor act a tuts, which is -- activities, this is where i have a challenge with, outdoor activities. the science is saying as long as you maintain social distancing, there really isn't any reason why you can't participate outdoors. why the restrictions going outdoors to, say, beaches? >> beaches, look, if you can keep physical and social distancing with 100,000 people on hampton beach in new hampshire, good luck. it's not going to work. and the fact of the matter is it's on the border of massachusetts. so if massachusetts and maine don't open beaches at the same time, 80% of the visitors will be from downtown boston in massachusetts. and the epidemic of this covid viral spread down there really, really severe, and we don't want to be inviting that up. so, unfortunately, we're just not in a position. i used to be in the travel and tourism wiz, hotels and restaurants and tourism, and that's a lot of what new
5:18 am
hampshire's build on, but those are the industries that are going to suffer the most because we don't want to invite that up. things like golf and campgrounds and hiking, we're opening that up to new hampshire residents, but beaches are a very, very tough one. we've got a tiny shoreline here, and it's like a tube of toothpaste if, right? if i really buy in, it's all going to come rushing up here out of boston, new york, new jersey. so we've got to be cautious about how we step into that. jason: governor, new hampshire was able to secure some face masks, some personal protective equipment. tell us about what you were able to do for the department of veterans affairs. >> sure. you know, i'm very proud that we've become real ec eberts at securing -- experts at securing ppe working with public/private partners, and we're bringing in masks so fast and readily, i got a call from secretary willkie that the bureaucracy within washington was limiting him and his ability to bring in ppe,
5:19 am
specifically masks, for v.a.s across the country x. he said, look, i don't have that problem is if i can deal with the government, could you secure some masks? we brought in 4.5 million masks and handed them right over to the v.a. to be distributed all across the country. we're going to keep doing that, but unfortunately, i mean, secretary willkie and his team are doing a great job at the v.a., but typical washington bureaucracy was getting in their way. we found a way around that, we're happy to help. jason: well, and i think that's why donald trump put the message out to states, hey, if you can go secure this stuff, go do it. he was highly criticized then, but thanks to the good work there the in new hampshire and governor sununu if, glad to see them do that. it'll help a lot of veterans, so thank you. >> you bet. look, we've been very, very fortunate in new hampshire, we're going to keep bringing it in not just for us, but for vermont, maine, massachusetts, anywhere we can get it and how we can share with our neighbors, we're happy to do it and

opening, deifying the state orders and saying, look, we will practice as much social distancing as we can, we will implement safety procedures and policies, but we need business. guess what's essential, folks? food is essential, and feeding your family is essential. the fact is we established this nation for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. the pursuit of happiness or prosperity e is actually having a job, and so for the government to come in and say, no, your job is not essential? well, let's send a message to washington and say maybe you shouldn't get paid. there are people who are not even getting their minimum wage pay because the government has determined that their job is not essential. and i think that's an outrage. >> you know, it's amazing, you can have targets open but you can't have small businesses open. you closed down golf courses, i mean, jason, you and i play in a tournament every year -- >> it's also how he social distances from people.

or close down and go bankrupt i'm going to open up. pete: i love it he says it's not a political thing. sargent mills is a quadruple amputee, wounded in afghanistan, went back to business in his home state, he mate have his marina and lodge shut down until july. he says i can't do that. i might have to reopen on my own >> jason: well and i think that's what's so frustrating if you know you have to participate in social distancing, staying six feet away from another person, you need to wash your hands, what's wrong with going to a marina and i like the interview he did earlier on fox & friends with a woman who has in michigan a dragon theatre you'd think that the michigan governor would allow people to go to a drive-in theatre when you're in your own car. listen to what she had to say. >> i think that it's relatively short, so it's how be we make a
6:04 am
living and in michigan we only have so many months to make it and look at other businesses. i know she's let some things open up and i don't understand because really, some of the businesses that have been able to open, i can still social distance better than that, you're sitting in a car, so that's why i stuck that, iep titianed on my marquise with it monday, you know, i just said that i want to open, can't. call governor. thanks. jillian: she said that they have plans in place that they've offered their plans on how that they can successfully do this , and no contact service and things like that and she said she hasn't received any word yet as to why they aren't able to open. pete: jillian, because sweeping mandates throw common sense out the door. the president has been spot on here. i'm going to give you guidelines here are the guidelines of what i think you should do. ultimately governors it's on you guidelines are way better in a free country than government mandates and restrictions. you get individual responsible citizens making their own risk calculations, i can go out, i don't have to go out, i can open
6:05 am
my business, i don't have to open my business as opposed to sweeping, catch-all ultimately disrespectful mandates that treat people like surfs, like they need to answer to the government as to whether or not they're allowed to be open. i think non-essential is the new deplorable. tell that person that can't open their business that it's non- essential that they can't go to work because it's not essential. when they're looking around saying my county or my state is on the downside of the curve or my county or my state hasn't seen what other states have seen , why can't i work? i know the information, i've listened to the experts, they've been wrong in some cases and right in others. now is the time for me to make a decision as a free person. that's where this frustration is coming from. jillian: and jason, you know, i think you would agree with her point she made too. she said look, mental health for so many people is such an important part of this. if we can open our drive-in movie theatre where we don't have any contact and give people an outlet for a couple hours to be able to watch a movie you've
6:06 am
been talking about national parks, jason for weeks now. people need a little bit of that >> jason: you can socially distance. there's probably no better place to do social distancing than say our national parks. the white house promised that they were going to open up quickly. they're still closed. yellowstone is half the size of new jersey and it's still closed you can't go there. it is so fundamentally wrong and governors who are still closing the parks, governor newsom closing the beaches it is ridiculous. pete: people are going to reject this jason because it makes no sense and when you're not respecting people enough to do respectable laws, people will start to reject it and they're not wrong to do so. >> jason: part of their frustration here and we heard this from congressman doug collins earlier, but nancy pelosi is extending her recess period. the house is not even going to go back into session. not even because i think she
6:07 am
just wants, doug collins made this point. it's a great point. she gets to hold the microphone all by herself. she doesn't want the representatives from all the states to come together. now the senate is going to open. i'm glad they're going to actually come back and do the business, they have a lot of important things, tuesday for instance, you have john rad cliff going through his confirmation hearing that'll be a big thing but there's a lot of things related to the coronavirus and our economy that congress should be addressing but nancy pelosi is saying nope, we're not going to do that right now. pete: yeah, nancy pelosi speaking of non-essential employees. here is a joint statement from nancy pelosi and mitch mcconnell , i'm not quite sure, haven't figured out yet why mitch mcconnell signed on to this but they wrote, congress is grateful for the administration's generous offer to deploy rapid covid-19 testing capabilities to capitol hill but we respectfully decline this offer at this time, our country's testing capacities are continuing to scale up nationwide and congress wants to keep directing resources to the frontline facilities where they
6:08 am
can do the most good the most quickly so the president is cutting to the chase as he often does on twitter and he wrote no reason to turn it down except politics. we have plenty of testing maybe you need a new doctor over there , crazy nancy will use it as an excuse not to show up to work, jason, the senate is back to business. they've got a protocol to do just that. the house making excuses even if the white house gives it on a platter saying we'll give you all the testing you want, nope, sorry. >> jason: well the house position, whose actually my when i was in congress, he didn't say don't open. he didn't actually say that. if he did, the senate wouldn't be open but the senate is opening and there is a great deal of frustration. listen to what doug collins told us earlier on fox & friends. >> we need to start coming back in but yet speaker pelosi seems to want to hold this break because she likes to hold the control, because there's no reason the house should not be beginning to come back in. we can make the arrangements and do what we need to do but i
6:09 am
believe this is about control and weave seen it from speaker pelosi, through impeachment, through mueller and everything she likes the house control and that is what this is all about, we got appropriations bills and it's time for us to get back and show leadership. leadership leads from the front not from the back. pete: boy isn't that right. it is true. jason: amen. pete: that's what leadership is all about so good on him and we've got another fox news exclusive all well this morning the woman accusing joe biden of sexual assault says she's now being targeted online. jillian: garrett tenney is live online as a former vp doubles down on a second tv interview. garrett? reporter: good morning, you all. tara reade says she's scared for the safety of her family after receiving threats and a flood of harassment for going public with her claims of sexual assault against joe biden. and in an interview with fox news she told us in part, i find it astounding the hipocracy that democrats are talking about women being able to tell their
6:10 am
stories safely. i'm a democrat a life long democrat but yet here i am trying to talk about my history with joe biden and i'm just the target of online harassment. reade also doesn't remember if she used the exact phrase sexual assault in the complaint she filed back in 1993 but she does remember describing how biden made her uncomfortable by allegedly talking about wanting her to serve drinks because he liked her legs and thought she was pretty. on saturday the associated press reported that two additional sources have confirmed reade told them aspects of claims against the former senator, one back in 1993 and the other about 15 years later. that makes at least four people who have corroborated at least parts of reade's allegations, but this weekend, biden was again adimate that he never sexually assaulted her. >> i'm saying unequivocally it never happened, period. women have a right to be heard, and the press should rigourously investigate the claims like
6:11 am
these, and i'd always uphold those principles but in the end, in every case, the truth is what matters and in this case, the truth is these claims are false. reporter: while biden is encouraging the press to thoroughly investigate these claims so far, he is not allowing a search of his senate records that are archived at the university of delaware to see if there's any document there that may substantiate or relate to these allegations. another thing fox news has learned this morning from a source familiar is that tara reade has now been in contact with ronan farrell and is working on an extensive piece published in the new yorker magazine. no publication date has been set back to you all. jillian: garrett tenney live for us. thank you garrett. turning to your headlines overnight, north and south korea exchanged gunfire. no one was injured. the gunfire comes one day after north korea broadcast images of leader kim jong-un appearing in public for the first time in 20 days. a marking on his wrist is
6:12 am
fueling speculation that he underwent some type of heart procedure. overnight south korean officials say they have reason to believe there was no surgery. >> isis may be trying to rebuild caliphate as the world battles covid-19. >> [gunfire] jillian: the terror group stepping up attacks in iraq and syria, one ambush killing 10 iraqi soldiers this weekend the attacks raising concerns that isis is taking advantage of the coronavirus crisis as governments tackle the pandemic and economic chaos. >> and the title of the bombshell biography of prince harry and meghan markle has been revealed. finding freedom is now available for pre-order on amazon. the book promises an up close portrait of the couple with new details about their lives. finding freedom is expected to be released in august. megan and mary collaborated with the two journalists to write the book. interesting. pete: finding freedom. and they didn't even write it?
6:13 am
>> jason: interesting is a bit generous but boy i can't wait. i'm getting that for pete because i know how much he loves the royals. pete: we will skip it. all right, still ahead, ohio continues to slowly reopen tomorrow as construction businesses get back to work. governor mike dewine gives us an update on his state's progress, that's next. in 1986, the late reverend david wilkerson
6:14 am
founder of times square church told mike evans...
6:15 am
number one new york times best-selling author, mike evans, has written an astonishing book on it, called... for the full prophesy by david wilkerson and the book by mike evans go to www.foz.org
6:16 am
pete: welcome back. america's governors slowly expanding plans to reopen their states including ohio where manufacturing, distribution and construction businesses open tomorrow, under the new stay safe ohio order. ohio governor mike dewine joins us governor thank you very much for being here. >> thank you, good morning. pete: so to set the context in ohio there have been protests there for a number of weeks including on friday citizens demanding that the stay-at-home order be ended and you on friday
6:17 am
did end the stay-at-home and it's now a stay safe however, what's the difference? >> well really the difference is that we've been able to flatten the curve. our hospital admissions are fairly flat, we would like to see them go down. they're not really going down yet, and we have to do two things at once as i told the people of ohio on friday, i said we can do two things at once and get this economy moving again and we can protect ourselves, protect our community so that's really what we're doing. we've put together a different working group, for example, we've got a group of folks who do hair, we've got a group of folks who run restaurants and these are small restaurant, mid- size, and we've had them come back with best practices and so as we open an industry or we open a sector people will be able to be assured in ohio that best practices are being followed and they're not my best practices. they're the practices that have come from people who run restaurants, people who do that,
6:18 am
and so we're layering this out, so in one week, we'll do retail. retail already now can do it by appointment, they can do it curb service, but in one week, they will be able to be open. pete: my question is why not now if walmart and target can do it, and the items being sold there are sold by a small retail outlet that can't open right now that's an essential business to that person. why are we, and they're an expert on their business and they can social distance. why not open it now for those people? >> we're waiting frankly because we want to make sure that we spread these orders, these new openings out just a little bit, so we layer it in. every expert recommends that we do it that way but for those people in ohio who are anxious, in a week, retail is all open and it will be moving forward. i think you make a very good point though. there has been an equity when
6:19 am
we classify ohio did like every other state classified essential and non-essential, anybody who sold groceries could sell anything else and so walmart for example, that sells groceries they could sell a bunch of other things so i think that's absolutely correct. it's absolutely correct that that was unfair, but we're out of that and we'll be moving forward. pete: absolutely and i respect the judgments and the difficult choices you're having to make but ultimately, government mandated sweeping and it almost sweeps out common sense that like drive-ins closed in certain states or other things where it boggles the mind why someone wouldn't be able to do that. so, in your new stay safe ohio, are these mostly guidelines? like this is what we recommend or are you going to be cracking down? >> look this has always relied since we began to close things in ohio, its always relied upon people doing that. i've always said that it's not so important what i say or what
6:20 am
the health director says or a state says. what's important is what people do, and ohioans have been great, they stayed home, they stayed apart. that's why we've seen the hospital admissions that are steady now, we've not had the surges that we were afraid we were going to have, so as we move forward we're going to continue to rely on ohioans and they will continue to make individual decisions but basically 90% of the economy is open in a week, and we're going to move from there to have a time where restaurants are going to open up, our hair is going to open up and things are going to be back. we're going to have to watch the numbers because what we don't want is a huge spike and our hospitals fill up. pete: fair enough fair enough but as you know, it is a balance and for every day someone can't open that's a difficulty too. governor thank you so much. >> no doubt about it. pete: absolutely we really appreciate it. still ahead the reactions are priceless a ceo makes $1.6 million on the stock market and gives every penny to his employees but that's not all his
6:21 am
company is doing he joins us live along with two lucky employees, next. you doing okay?

6:25 am
universal movies from playing in its theaters last week. jillian? jillian: a true display of the american spirit a successful ceo makes $1.6 million off the stock market and this is what he did with it. >> i'm taking the entire 1.6 million and dividing it up amongst all of you. >> why? >> in my view, this is not a gift. you've earned it. jillian: wow, larry connor dividing up every penny to give to his 400 employees each receiving from $2,000 to 9,000 dollars. joining us now is the connor group ceo, larry, and two employees, britney and pedro. thank you all for being here we appreciate it. >> good morning thank you for having us. jillian: of course larry tell me why you decided to do this? >> well, in my view, during this crisis, we're all in this
6:26 am
together, and people need to help other people and two of our key core values are do the right thing and people count , so when i was fortunate enough to make 1.6 million in a matter of days, yeah, i was really happy about it, but it didn't feel exactly right and so then i thought well, people like pedro and britney on the frontline they're the ones who have really moved into action, so let's share the wealth and that's what i did jillian: wow that's incredible. britney what does this mean to you, what are you going to do with it? >> to me this is such a blessing and really means the world to me. i feel like i'm in a position where i am able to be debt-free, i can help my family out, any way i can financially is truly a weight lifted off my
6:27 am
shoulders knowing that i work for a company that lives truly the core values of do the right thing, people count and taking care of its staff and its customers and all of its employees truly makes a difference. jillian: absolutely, i mean, pedro i'm sure you feel the same tell me what you're doing day in and day out? >> day in and day out, i'm really excited to receive my bonus like larry said, we are on the frontlines, and i'm just really blessed and excited to be receiving this as we are receiving this as well so it is another one on top of that so we're really happy about it. jillian: larry what do your workers mean to you? >> well in my opinion, in any ever den or , any organization, the number one key to success is people, and so you can't just say that. you need to take actions and leadership, i think, especially in these kind of times matters,
6:28 am
and so you need to lead from the front. in our view, we're an essential business. we think we can do anything. we can do the impossible. but only with our people. jillian: absolutely this group effort it's a team effort that's how the job gets done. larry, britney, pedro, thank you so much for sharing your incredible story. we appreciate it. >> thank you for having us. jillian: have a good day. protesters in california slam the governor's beach closures as three counties defy his lockdown order. how a local state and federal leaders working together to resolve this? we'll ask california congressman devon nunes next. i'm your mother in law. and i like to question your every move. like this left turn. it's the next one. you always drive this slow? how did you make someone i love? that must be why you're always so late. i do not speed. and that's saving me cash with drivewise.

6:33 am
we're pleased to be joined by devon nunes. i had the pleasure and honor of serving with devon nunes in the united states congress and he represents california. his family business is actually in agriculture but we've been talking all morning, congressman , chairman previously , about what's going on in the state of california because governor newsom has gone to these extremes and you got counties now that are going to be defiant but tell us what's happening from your perspective in california and what governor newsom is doing. >> well thank you it's great to be with you this morning and kind of ironic i've been on fox & friends i think about five or six weeks ago saying that the clear problem that we have is we have the older folks in nursing homes with underlying conditions that need to be our target; however, several weeks ago this governor decided to declare war on open space. we have a lot of open space here in california even though we have 40 million people, but
6:34 am
we have places like yosemite national park, the sequoia kings canyon national park just right up above where i live those have been closed even a lot of little local parks look like a murder scene there's tape around them so nobody can go out and what i've said if you can stand, if we can do mosh pits at grocery stores why can't we go out and if it's not six feet, maybe you could be 16 feet apart in a park or on a beach, or 26 feet, maybe 106 feet. there's got to be some point at some level that people could get on to the beaches, the worst thing the governor did, however, is that he picked winners and losers so he didn't want to get into a fight with the mayor of san diego whose a republican whose probably going to run against and challenge governor newsom in the next election so he went down to the san diego mayor. other places and across the state, but for some reason in orange county, it's like he
6:35 am
had a political vendetta against him and i have no idea why he started this but it just in fur yates people. people are becoming infuriated seeing some people being treated differently than others and in the meantime back too what my original point was we still have problems protecting our older population in nursing homes. pete: congressman people just want reasonable guidelines and regulations that meet with common sense and i think that's part of why you're seeing three of these counties in california looking to ultimately defy the governor's lockdown, i don't know if it's right, yuma, you'll know the county better than i do they're looking to say hey we're going to reopen and reject what the governor is doing. is this what you might see in a trend if local leaders feel like it's too heavy-handed. >> well we're already seeing that so another thing that isn't being reported is every county has an elected county sheriff. most of the county sheriffs have told the governor, sorry we're not going to do this. if somebody goes through the
6:36 am
yellow tape that's in a local park, i've had a lot of the local sheriffs around me say look we're not going to arrest people if you go walking around in a park. we're just not going to do it so we've already seen some small cities who said look we're opening back up and so that's really the challenge here is that there's just people are being treated differently than others and in the meantime, this economy continues to crater , and that's the challenge it probably most concerning, the hospitals. we have a lot of people who aren't being treated for underlying conditions, because they're being reserved for covid cases that never arrived. jillian: a lot of hospitals people aren't getting surgeries they need because they are deemed elective so that's something to consider too in the meantime, sir let's talk about this. the president blasting the fbi over the fake el flynn investigation a lot of new information coming out about that this week. where do you think this goes from here and what should happen next? >> well the president can't
6:37 am
blast these dirty cops enough. there's so much going on here let me try to unpack it quickly. you have the durham investigation that led to the investigation by the u.s. attorney out of missouri that led to the explosions in the michael flynn case. now the house republicans on the intelligence committee said for a long time that the fbi had testified to us, plus other witnesses, that flynn wasn't lying. now, we know that flynn was set up. that's just the tip of the iceberg here. we also have all of these e-mails, text messages, that are just now coming out because of what likely what the job of these u.s. attorneys have done, but we had a full blown investigation going on, on these matters, and i want to know, why is it that current officials at the fbi have covered up and hid these from the american people for so long, they know that we ask for this , so how is it that people currently in the fbi whoever is deciding to keep this stuff redacted or to keep it hidden down in the basement
6:38 am
somewhere in the fbi? how are they not liable for lying to congress? we've been asking for that. jason you understand this , and i guess the problem is, they would have to investigate themselves and they just don't want to do it but somebody in the fbi keeps covering this up, and look it's going to be a long time before anybody in america trusts the fbi. pete: congressman you've been on it. >> jason: i think you're exactly right. bill barr, mr. durham, what they're doing is perugino pivotal to getting the confidence of the american people back and i still don't understand why people who are involved and engaged in this and still working at the department of justice have their security clearances. you don't have a security clearance you don't have a job so takeaway their security clearance and you help solve the problem. i wish we could spend an hour talking to you about this but congressman thank you so much for joining us on this sunday morning. >> thanks guys great to be with you. pete: turning now to a few additional headlines as well.
6:39 am
a democrat criticized for the re-election campaign, now calling out his own party. georgia representative vernon jones tweeting in part, the democrat party doesn't give a damn about us and they've becomed more concerned about putting illegals first and americans last. he joined us earlier to double down. >> let me be clear this president has shown two great things one is leadership and two is results. i put my country before my party and i wish more people would do that in this country. pete: amen. jones reversed his decision to resign from his position, last week. >> and san francisco's police chief promising to replace thin blue lines masks after officers were spotted wearing them, how dare they, at a may day protest. chief bill scott called the mask s divisive, apparently, and said he's looking into more neutral face coverings as soon as they are available. the thin blue line masks will not be allowed. >> and former president george w. bush calling on the nation to
6:40 am
unite as we battle covid-19. >> let us remember we have faced times of testing before. following 9/11, i saw a great nation rise as one to honor the brave, to grieve with the grieving, and to embrace unavoidable new duties. we are not partisan combatants. we are human beings. pete: the brush presidential library sharing this video as part of the call to unite benefit live stream and those are your headlines, good message, guys but i said it before and i'll say it again. i wish the former president would have said something when there was a investigation into a sitting president, when an impeachment was going on and talk about maybe put a partisan ship aside then, not a whole lot then but at least we got this now. and silence. we'll toss it to rick richmuth now. jillian: there's a delay so it's a little hard. rick over to you. rick: let me take it over here. so on sundays i like to show you
6:41 am
the precipitation coming for this week ahead. take a look at the map and let me show you what's going on. a few interesting things here number one the southeast you're getting a nice little break which is some good news, florida where you need moisture you're not getting any and parts of south texas where you also need it you're not getting any so that's kind of the bad news and want to take you through temperature wise though over the next couple of days as well. something else very interesting right here, and that is the northeast and the mid atlantic with this beautiful day going on today enjoy it today because it's not going to last very long, and in fact we'll get back towards that kind of cooler pattern over the next number of days. here we go let me show you this. we see the temps cool right back down, 50 for buffalo for a high on monday so you get the idea of the cool air kind of comes back looks like it stays with us for the better part of a couple of weeks the heat stays down across the south and 107 by wednesday towards phoenix, all right guys back to you. pete: rick, sunny days. jillian: [laughter]

pete: billionaire investor warren buffett selling off his company shares in the u.s. airline industry more than $10 billion as travel demand plummets amid covid-19. jillian: but buffet is still optimistic about our economy telling shareholders "nothing can basically stop america, the american miracle, the american magic has always prevailed and it will do so again." >> jason: here to react is "sunday morning futures" host, maria bartiromo. maria thanks so much for joining us this morning. warren buffett grabbing his parachute jumping off the airline industry isn't quite good for the airline investments are they? maria: well, hi guys. you know the bottom line is the reality of it is that
6:46 am
traffic is down 90-plus percent in the airline industry and i think buffet and his investors at berkshire are basically saying look, things will not be exactly the same for the airlines once we start flying again. look we're talking about a reopening this weekend, but when you're looking at airlines and you're looking at international travel in particular, that's not coming back any time soon, and i think buffet knows that, so he wants to basically be on the sidelines and see how this plays out. we'll see a lot of changes once we get out of this and it may very well be a change in seating , sitting six feet away and that's going to impact revenue so that's why he's getting out of the airlines but make no mistake he's still looking for opportunities sitting on $137 billion in cash and he said usually when you have a huge sell-off that we've seen, we zoom in and we try to find the opportunities and we look for value. that's what he's doing right now he just said right now we haven't found anything so far, because the market went all the way down into bear market territory and then came back.
6:47 am
