finally, my new book is a new york times bestseller. ♪ jedediah: welcome, everyone, to the 6:00 a.m. hour of "fox & friends weekend here with will cain, with pete hegseth. i love that song, guys. wilson phillips. that was my mojo back in the day. makes me think of "bridesmaids." the end scene. i don't know if you seen the movie. a smile a great start to sunday morning. will: good morning, jedediah.

that was 8th grade. socially distanced slow dancing. pete: slow dance is only dance i would do. connell: we were way ahead. we were socially distancing slow dancing, full arms length dancing. jedediah: remember that, yes? pete: teleprompter says pete says hello. hello will. hello jed. thank you for being here on this sunday edition of "fox & friends." 16 days to election days. it is coming quick. we have only two more weekends for "fox & friends weekend before, 26, 27 million already cast their ballot. election day still 16 days away. a rally held across the country including this one. a free speech rally turns violent. deannounceing big tech

censorship on the joe biden report from the "new york post" on emails. reporter: they really were outnumbered at this protest at san francisco on saturday. the group is upset how things are handled with companies like facebook and twitter. at one point things got pretty heated at this event. they were upset with the company the way they handled stories involving joe biden's son hunter. one organizer claims he was attacked by antifa. president trump blasted big tech during his campaign rally last night during wisconsin. the companies are essentially boosting biden's campaign by blocking stories involving hunter. president trump: the big tech company have become crazy. they won't let the fact that we caught them a total corrupt deal. they won't let the news get out. reporter: republican senator ron johnson sent a letter to the fbi

asking for clarity what they know about a laptop that may claim e ills h mails from hunter biden and foreign businesses is. joe biden's campaign deny everything and essentially calling this a smear campaign. he will head to durham, north carolina to, get-out-the-vote. president trump is waking up in las vegas. he will hold a campaign rally in carson city this afternoon. pete, will, book to you guys on sunday morning. jedediah: thanks so much, mark. these allegations of bias when it comes to social media have been alive and well for a really long time. many people are raising red flags, on what twitter decides to disseminate and decides to depress. the political bent that seems inherent in all of that. this story about hunter biden brought a lot to the surface when it came to the "new york post" the way that information has been suppressed than treated differently than other pieces of information on tweeter that have a different

political bent. the "new york post" provided a review of some twitter senior executives and tweets, what they had to say in particular about president trump. this one says, get him out. posted a senior site engineer on august 18th. what a expletive baboon. one manager with nine years on the job called him a expletive idiot. voters who elected him, hilariously expletive people. one manager said trump should die in a fire, january 2017 tweet. some are pretty bad. this is what i often say about academia. i don't really care what the political beliefs are of teachers. i don't care what the political beliefs are of engineers and teachers, if you bring that in classroom, organize curriculum, you bring that in the twitter sphere. talk about facebook.

many conversation buildings had about other platforms. you use that to decide what people can and can't see. prohibit them from making their own decisions. that is where the problem lies for me. what say you? will: i don't know those two things are separatable. i get what you're saying. i don't care either one's particular political beliefs what wee learn over time it clearly infuses itself in academia. it clearly inserts itself in media. jedediah, you and i and pete have worked for many media companies. it is real bias. we post yesterday on "fox & friends" at campaign contributions from media companies. we posted yesterday from twitter and facebook, over 90%. pete: 99% at twitter going to democrats. will: i worked at other media organizations. the filings are public. well over 80, 90% at almost every institution. the last point i make the

american public knows this. they know this. the big post insult the attempt to dupe to them, lie to their faces, tell you their objective. continually disrespect their intelligence by pretending you didn't work for a democratic administration and you don't donate to the left that is the ultimate disrespect to look you deep in the eye to lie to you. pete: that is the whole steve scully thing. the next debate mode rate tore a registered democrat. that is how the game is rigged. what they hate the president exposed that bias. you hear the nice little cnn chant at rallies. maybe cnn once decades ago played it a little bit more straight. now it's a bunch of democrats posing as independents. if we go to mark meredith and the report, that rally was free speech outside of twitter headquarters, led by a black man, named phillip anderson.

antifa showed up, punched him. he lost a tooth. they had to be escorted out san francisco. the anti-fascists are punch black guys because of free speech. these rallies continue to be big. there is antifa flag right there. the rallies for the president continue to be large. the stakes are clear. whether joe biden wants to pose as a moderate or not. the state of the democratic party is definitely not moderate. the president, i was watching president, they will be in nevada today. by the way, joe biden in his basement, not doing anything on a saturday, 17 days before the election. the president talked about that, listen. president trump: you know biden made a speech i think it was today. he makes so few of them. he stays in his place in delaware. i like delaware, does he ever leave delaware, right? he is speaking, there is nobody there. i'm saying, nobody reports that.

and he never leaves his little area. i meet with a lot of people. i cannot, i have an obligation. i can't lock myself into a basement at the white house. i can't lock myself into beautiful bedroom at the white house. there is no risk. no nothing. i'm the president of the united states. pete: no doubt he will blitz to the end with a big debate on thursday. here is the president's calendar this week. he will be as i mentioned in nevada today. monday in arizona. tuesday, pennsylvania and thursday north carolina. joe biden we looked on his website. so far this week he will do a voter mobilization event in durham, north carolina. that's it. will: that's it. so we see where the energy is, jedediah. also it appears, it appears the polls might be tightening a little bit. that makes us wonder where do we sit today in this election? charlie kirk of turning point

usa, not only getting tight, he thinks it is the president's race to win. >> this is not a president's race to win. we have seen almost every single tracking poll tighten in the last week. the enthusiasm for president trump is absolutely incredible. we have been doing three rallies a day at turning point action and enthusiasm of the crowds are incredible. all the while, joe biden has to answer questions about the very questionable dealings with a new emails that are coming out. it is not a good time to be in the biden campaign. if the president wins this debate which i anticipate he will on thursday, that puts him in a position to win an election that the left, the media and activists have done everything they possibly can to stop him. i would much rather be in president trump's position than joe biden's position right now. jedediah: you know, i watched a bit of the rally yesterday. i was less thinking i wish president trump would stop talking about the biden campaign

strategy. i just don't think he should focus on that. it's clear, we talked about it on the show, there are two very different approaches here. you are in the midst of covid-19. there will be a lot of people around the country will look at their own lives, though will say, i'm not in a basement but i've socially distanced myself. i'm not sitting in an office building at work that will relate to the way that the biden camp has conducted itself. that is just a fact. i think president's trump best would be talk about issues. people want to hear about health care and covid-19 what will be done. he can easily talk about the vaccine which i know a lot of people are excited about, in addition to the antibody treatment he himself received that seemed to make a big difference. he can talk about the violence in the streets, that is terrifying to people like places in new york city. the shootings are up. he can talk about why, and what a trump administration would do to address that there is a positive way he can go about this focus on health care,

another one people are. who cares what the biden campaign is doing when comes to their -- will: i have to disagree. tons of people care, because their lives have been ruined. jedediah: but they see it. will: their fortunes have been crushed. he is creating a contrast, i don't want to live in joe biden's lock down america. we'll open up. hold events. trust people to be responsible. that is our choice. that should be yours. joe biden will help you you have to keep your mask on driving in your car and stay in your white circle. that is the contrast. you can talk about issues as well but he is laying it out through talking about it what the contrast is a lot of people agree with the president they want to be respected as individuals. they don't want to whine about his rallies. jedediah: i think there has been a lot of criticism when it comes to covid-19 with respect to the administration. some has been rightful there is lot of mixed messaging. pete: that is what the media does. jedediah: health care is not a been a strength of his.

we can see stuff he said himself that is odd and contradictory at times. all i'm saying covid-19 is what it is. what we learned about the pandemic everyone had a different way to approach it, right? everyone is in a unique situation. some people got sick. some didn't. some people lost family members, some people didn't. talk about the future. talk about what you will do. talk about the vaccine. be positive. let people approach the pandemic the way though approach it. what the biden campaign does with respect the pandemic doesn't affect you. will: sure will if he is president. we'll have conversations which strategies mite play out better for president trump. in few moments you will have a conversation with somebody from "real clear politics" where the strategy plays out in terms of polling but first we'll turn to the stories. iran is free to buy weapons as decade old arms embargo is

ending today. the trump administration tried extending the embargo indefinitely but was rejected by the u.n. security council. iran says it has no plans on a quote, buying spree. new wildfire burning near boulder, colorado, quickly gaining ground. the calwood fire. people in the town of lyons, over high alert overnight and being prepared to evacuate the fast moving flames. nearly 1000 homes are in the area of concern. roll tide. the university of alabama beats georgia bulldogs in epic top five showdown. >> mack jones. pressure coming from behind. a lob to the end zone. devonte smith, a touchdown, are you kidding me? will: the tide completely shutting out uga in the second half, 41-24.

florida state stunning number five north carolina, 31-28 victory. clemson dominated georgia tech, with a listen, 73-7 score. notre dame survived some offensive struggles to beat the louisville 12-7. those are the headlines. pete, 73-7. pete: might as well not played. early voter turnout is and all time high with 26 million ballots already cast. is this a sign of things to come? we'll break down the numbers next. ♪

♪. jedediah: with election day only 16 days away, americans are voting early at record pace. more than 26 million voters have

already cast their ballots. representing nearly 1/5 of the total vote in 2016. so what does this mean for both candidates? here to discuss "real clear politics" cofounder and president tom bevin. tom, pretty big numbers when it comes to early voting, what does it all mean? >> i don't think we know. we are in the middle of a pandemic are. both sides, particularly democrats urged their voters to turn out early, both going to the polls in person during early voting periods but also sending in mail-in ballots and absentee ballots. that seems to absolutely payed off. democrats are leading the way in early voting. it is too early to know who benefits. these are early voters who would show up on election day otherwise. it is tough to get a handle what this means who is benefiting from the record early turnout that we're seeing. jedediah: you mentioned democrats and the republicans and the distinction there. look at numbers.

mail-in ballots by party registration, democrats 5.9 million returns. republicans 2.6 million returns. that is a pretty big distinction there. some republicans would look at that and become concerned. you said that is note necessarily a reason for them to worry. can you broaden and explain a little more why that might be the case? >> sure all the polling data shows that democrats you know, by 20 or 30 points have suggested they are going to turn out early and mail in their ballots. use mail-in balloting as their preferred option this time around. republicans, 2/3 of 3/4 say they're not doing that. they will show up on election day. there will be a red wave in terms of republicans turning out to vote. meanwhile democrats will have bank ad lot of their vote early via various options. so i think, republicans actually some of these states feel pretty good where they are in terms of their early vote. again they're counting on a big turn out on election day.

jedediah: i want to take a look with you, tom at three important states, battleground states. comparison between 2016 and now. let's look at michigan. 2016 clinton was up 3.6%. now biden is up 7.2. pennsylvania, 2016, clinton up plus 2.1. biden is 5.6. wisconsin, join ton up 6.5. biden is plus 6.3. when you look at the numbers a lot of predictions that were made, a lot of predictions wound up being falls, what can we learn what we saw? >> there is still two weeks left in the race. depends where the final averages turn out. in 2016 our average in pennsylvania was under 2 percentage points. that is pretty close. two of the final polls had race tied, one had trump leading by single point. michigan was 3 1/2 points. wisconsin was the big miss in terms of pollsters. donald trump over performed polls in pennsylvania by 2 1/2

points, michigan by 3 1/2 points, seven points in wisconsin. if he performs in that same time around he would fall short. he needs to tighten the race in these three states. jedediah: tom bevin, great to hear from you. this will be a fascinating couple of weeks coming up and a fascinating election day to say the least. appreciate your insight today. >> you got it. thank you. jedediah: still ahead a filmmaker who was a registered democrat said her views have been shaken since she began researching illegal immigration for her latest documentary. that film maker is here to share her story. only pay for what you need. liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. a livcustomizeper iquickbooks for me. okay, you're all set up. thanks! that was my business gi, this one's casual.

are american. it needs to be stopped. it takes lives. it is a terrible, terrible practice and americans should be out in droves stopping it, not trying to stop someone who is stopping wit which is why president trump is trying to build the wall. will: that is amazing. most people setting out on a project like this will use confirmation bias to set about proving their preexisting viewpoint. what evidence did you see that you made, that made you believe this is a practice that has to stop? >> well, we featured four stories in the film and two of the stories are migrants workers that come to the u.s. and what happens with them. so we followed their stories and the other two are stories of americans who had a very, more than negative. one of them actually died as a result of illegal immigration. and i think that the one, they're all very important stories.

all of these people represent a diaspora of the immigrants and as well as recipients that does not have a good experience with illegal immigration at all. but i think the ones with the 6-year-old, the story i started following initially, there was no reason for that child to be on that desert on the u.s.-mexico border, dehigh it dad dying. i was talking to someone yesterday in an interview, i'm a woman of color. you can tell, a democrat and, when the squad started with alexandria ocasio-cortez and rashida tlaib, ilhan omar, wow, you have more people like me in the party. this is this good. and but when i saw rashida tlaib crying over the mothers and daughters being separated at the border and then, when i traveled the world and i actually found out the truth i can't imagine why rashid today or ilhan would

not have done that research. surely they know what is going on. if you are there, you looked at some of these things, it is not rocket science. it is evidence. it is in your face. you can see that the people who are coming to our border are not for the most part persecuted. there is no violence. not even poverty because really impoverished can't make it to our borders.

by a court of the united states. and they concealed it, you know, at some point we got to look at whether the fbi is part of the crimes being committed. to do that we cannot have the fbi investigating the fbi. so, i know there is some calling for the complete dissolution of the fbi. but we have at least got to have the washington part of it investigated. and, it may take a special prosecutor that the president himself has to appoint, i told

him three years ago he had the power to appoint a special prosecutor and naturally the, the doj had not told him that. but the power of the doj to appoint special prosecutors comes from the president himself. he has that power. it is an executive power. but it is time to have a special prosecutor get the resources he needs to start investigating people that were at the top of the fbi and people that continue to work there. it is really gotten dangerous. jedediah: congressman, unfortunately we don't have a lot of time left but it is a couple weeks to the election. we would be remiss if we didn't ask but the stimulus talks. if there have been any updates. we know nancy pelosi and mnuchin, still working together to try to come forward with a comprehensive bill. there is some talk after skinny bill that may be approved soon with ppe, other important elements in their pp funds, some

number one rated cable show. will: we appreciate you starting your die with "fox & friends," jedediah. jedediah: yeah, absolutely. it is great to be here, if i had to guess, we didn't pick the music today, if i had to guess, if one of us would pick that one today, i would have said that would be you, will cain. will you have to give me some lessons on country. i'm waiting for. country and sports. pete: of note, today is national chocolate cupcake day, national beard day, we're nailing that one, also international leggings day. get them out. jedediah: oh, i have them on right now. pete: two out of three. we'll get the cupcakes. we'll be ready to go. we'll get into politics because it that's season. 16 days until the election. guess how many people already cast their ballots? 26 million americans have already finance to a voting

site. waited in a long line. maybe cast an absentee ballot, as i did, walk in your ballot. here is the numbers, 26 million so far. this is an interesting stat. 20% of the 2016 vote has already been cast. so 1/5 of americans have voted last time. it will be probably larger this time, have already voted so will, what does that say to you where we are? we still have a dewait to come. we have a couple weeks. where would you make it? will: you would infer that means your voting totals would go up, your total turn crowd would be higher than in 2016 but the great unknown there is, does the number of people going to polling places on election day go down because of the pandemic? are we on schedule to have greater voter turn out or on schedule to have lesser representation on actual election day, on the actual day people are supposed to show up at polling places. president trump for what it is

worth, he believes it indicating he is leading. he is predicting a red wave like you never seen before. he said this in michigan. president trump: this election day the people of michigan must stop these anti-american radicals by issuing joe biden and his group a thundering defeat at the ballot box. by the way, it seems to be happening. [cheering] we're supposed to be way behind until election day when all the republicans go and you will have a red wave like you've never seen before. [cheering] and even the fake news media is saying that. we'll have a wave. so just came out. we're leading. [cheering] early voting. but, there is a lot of concern going on out there. this sounds like a little bit like four years ago but this should be much bigger. we done everything we said and obviously more. jedediah: obviously very hard to tell at this point how this is

going to go. i do think there will be big turn out on election day. i think people are really galvanized on both sides amounts we talked about these are two very different candidates, two very different visions. if nothing else it made people really passionate. if you look back at 2016 a lot of people were wrong. a lot of the polling was deeply dispointing. let's look at some of that as a reminder, as we look particularly at the battle ground states this time around. rcp average, start with michigan, 2016, clinton plus 3.6%. now biden plus 7.2%. pennsylvania, 2016, clinton plus 2.1. biden plus 5.. wisconsin, clinton 6.5. biden, 6.3. if nothing else, be cautious, look at averages, predictions. what a lot of pundits, people like us say often times. there are these things. we talk about the silent majority.

people don't like to tell you how they will vote or mislead when it comes how they vote or don't want to face criticism how they vote. they show up on election day and they vote. you don't know about it ahead of time. really interesting. this election in particular i think there are some issues on on the ballot haven't been before. covid-19, we haven't faced something like this. i haven't seen something like this in lifetime. this will be a fascinating two weeks. we spoke with tom bevin at "real clear politics" about all this polling and what the predictions are and what they may mean, here is what he had to say. >> there is still two weeks left in the race. depends where the final averages turn out. in 2016 our avenuerage in pennsylvania is under 2%age points. that is pretty close. in of the final polls, one had the race tied, one trump ahead single point. wisconsin was sort of the big miss in terms of pollsters. donald trump overperformed his polls in pennsylvania by about 2 1/2 points.

in michigan by 3 1/2 points and over seven points in wisconsin. if he were to overperform by that same amount this time around he would fall a little bit short. he needs to tighten the race in these three states. will: president trump is spending a lot of time in those states as we speak. if the election turns the same way in 2016 where the polling is all wrong again. there is two takeaways. number one, looking new england patriots 28-3com back over the atlanta falcons. looking joe biden, largely, largely at home in the same way that hillary clinton skipped michigan and it will be on biden like it was on clinton for not getting out there and trying to win, trying to put more effort into winning those battleground states. that is number one. if these polls are off and president trump wins in 2016 gather all pollsters and fire them to the moon. they're incompetent or trying to sway an election. they would be so far off yet again. pete: the numbers that was final

"real clear politics." there is still time for those to move. a lot of people voting earlier, presumably this is a guess, probably solidified in their view. they want to wait in an early line to cast the vote because either for the president or against. the question i have, you watched that rally yesterday in wisconsin. it was back the blue rally. blue line flag. thousands of people. tons of enthusiasm. president you can a talking about issues. creating contrast. you know the enthusiasm is there. the question how much anti-trump enthusiasm is this for biden voters who are going out the rallies are not there his events have no attend tease they have not been knocking on doors. they have taken an entirely different approach. will that be reflected in enthusiasm and ability to turn people out. a poll is one thing. that is not a vote. who actually turns out is all that really matters and right now it is anyone's guess. but those numbers, i would say not just to the moon, to mars, should fire those pollsters if

they are that wrong again. i think they might be. but it that's time of year where "saturday night live" is taking some political shots and some political skits. they did one on the dueling town halls last week. we thought you might enjoy. take a look. >> mr. vice president, how would your response to covid differ from the horrible one of president trump who i hate? >> okay. let's limit how many times you outright say you hate president trump during your questions. >> ah. >> mr. vice president, go ahead. >> okay, now, nicholas, where the hell are you? >> i'm up here. go ahead. >> hey, yeah. here's the deal. unlike the president i actually have a plan. >> okay. great. what is it? [laughter] >> a plan? it's a detailed proposal for doing oar achieving something. >> if you were angry at nbc for

doing this town hall, let me get a few questions i think you will thank me. pete: you know, they understood the tone and tenor of this. jed, what is your thoughts on that? jedediah: i think it is funny. i think that people need to laugh right now. i think it is great when you make fun of politicians and when politicians are able to laugh at themselves. for a while i felt "snl" was not funny t was losing its charm. i saw the whole last episode i thought it was really funny. and good on them. people need it right now. i certainly do. will: would like, how about some even-handedness when it comes to political humor. you might see a little bit of even-handedness at least in the clip. let me turn to a story of increasing concern. we talked about this several times on "fox & friends" last couple weeks. that is an increase in officers leaving the police force. a record number of seattle police officers are leaving. south dakota's governor, chris at this no, ma'am encouraged

them -- kristi noem, come to south dakota. to those seattle officers leaving the force. instead of demonizing you we stand with you. i would add, pete, i believe at this point now, 87% increase in retirements from the nypd over one year ago. look at the trend. ask yourself why. then ask yourselves what is going on? is this healthy? pete: why you have seen every major police organization in america endorse president trump. he is una bashed in his support for the police. you have got joe biden, we'll cover this more on the program, going out saying repeatedly, what you should do, if you're having to use deadly force, use them in the leg. as an infantry officer who has been in combat, not being the same as in the police, when your life is threatened anyone who knows anything about policing, spent anytime with law enforcement officers, saying that is insane, dangerous idea. law enforcement hears that, he

is flirting with defunding the police. now he wants me to shoot people in the leg. that is the kind of issue we didn't anticipate from 2016. we didn't see cove vivid. who thought we would be having a national conversation about defunding the police as well. so very different in that sense in 2016. jedediah: yeah. go ahead. pete: go to headlines. you're right. i was behind. free speech rally turns violent in california. of hundreds of alleged antifa members stormed the event in san francisco before fighting broke out. the antifa members assaulted pro-trump demonstrators, who led the rally, denouncing big tech censorship. despite heavy police presence, things descended into chaos, with antifa, just an idea, just an idea, folks, attacking trump supporters. be advised the picture we're about to show you is graphic. event organizer, phillip anderson, showing his face bloodied and beaten up after his

tooth was knocked out. they cold cocked him out of nowhere. this was not a two-sided fight. the conservative group had to get a police escort to get out of there. no arrests have been made as of yet. unbelievable. new video is released of the militiamen accused of plotting to kidnap governor gretchen whitmer, promising to harm anyone in their way. >> in this [bleep] goes down, okay. if this whole thing starts to happen, telling you what, i'm taking out as many of those [bleep] as i can. every single one. pete: the group is see seen carrying out tactical exercises and reloading guns with anti-police sentiment. they planned to use a 800,000-volt taser on the democratic governor. they planned to blow up a bridge to stop cops as they got away. tampa bay rays are headed to the world series for the first

time since 2008. >> on the first pitch in the air, right field that is playable. coming in. that's it. the tampa bay rays have won the american league pennant. pete: the rays beat the houston astros 4-2. the team's second pennant in franchise history. the astros didn't know what pitch was coming. they could have used that. the dodgers forced game 7 topping the an lant at that braves 3-1. the deciding game is on fox. those are the headlines. will: not really fair. tampa bay has an advantage. pete: why? will: they're used to playing in empty stadiums. true, sorry, tampa, you have one of best teams with the least support out there, you're headed to the world series in a year when you can't have fans in the stands. pete: made yourself popular in florida. will: the south leading the charge when it comes to their

economies is it time for other states to take note? georgia democrat vernon jones on what the south is doing right next.

♪. will: state economies real from coronavirus lockdowns a new report reveals the economy down south greatly outperforms the rest of country. with unemployment in the region the lowest across the u.s. here to react, a georgia state democrat who is voting for

president trump, vernon jones. let's look at the unemployment rate across the south right now. put up a graphic for everybody. it is at 6.9%. the south is represented by the red line. for what it is worth the north line is the yellow on your screen. you can see it is the highest patten .9%. so representative jones, why is the south outperforming everyone else? >> a lot of it has to do with good leadership n the state of georgia, we have governor kemp. as you know, georgia is number one place to do business in in this country. it is about striking a balance between the covid, taking it very seriously, listening to the scientists, listening to the health experts but at the same time realizing we have a economy here. prior to the pan as you know this economy was on steroids thanks to president donald trump. we're striking that balance. businesses need to be open. a lot of people need to go to work. kids need to be in school. so as a result of that, and not trying to shut down our state

because of politics likes the democrats are doing, who literally want the virus to stay around. they don't want businesses open, they don't want kids in school. it is all politics for them but those like-minded governors an local chief executives who care about the american people, who understand that the president is here giving as much resources as possible, to have the doors stay open it is making a difference in our economy. people are working. will: balancing the seriousness of covid-19 against the economic effects of lockdowns is clearly what everyone should be doing. it is clearly benefiting the south. unemployment is better. consumer spending through the pandemic and lockdowns in the south significantly better than across the u.s. better than the u.s. average. we have to ask you about this, representative jones. you were at a trump rally in georgia this past week. we have video of the level of your enthusiasm. here is a still picture. you're crowd surfing,

representative jones. tell us about that. what, was this, is this a first time you ever went crowd surfing? >> let me tell you. this really is not about me. and, as those liberals on the left are trying to make it about me and covid. what this is about is electing donald trump. you know what? if this is about me, dive into a crowd, surfacing, show me the next crowd. this president has been there for american people. he is working hard. there is a solution to this whole thing right around the corner. but i can tell you this, that was about a leap of faith because i believe in donald trump. i believe in the people who caught me. let me tell you, when i jumped into that crowd among all whites, well you know what? that is a demonstration that black lives matter because they caught me. they protected me. will: you took that leap in 2016. a lifelong democrat going over to president donald trump and as you say, took the leap into that crowd as well.

corey? >> i think it is all three of those things. when pundits told us they would stand eight hours in line in a snowstorm or windstorm to see donald trump give a speech. these people will not show up at polls. they were proven wrong. i remember bringing donald trump to lowell, massachusetts in a blizzard. people waited for two days for him to show up. this guy doesn't play the guitar. he doesn't have a singing voice. he gets up to talk to people. people are so enamored, willing to give up their whole day or sometimes multiple days to listen to him. they will absolutely show up to vote on election day or earlier. that means another victory for donald trump. will: david, give you a multiple choice question as well. feel free to chime in on that, also on the second topic of hunter biden and his emails which the media is trying very hard to discredit and dismiss. ultimately joe biden and hunter biden, nobody denied what it is. it is showing dealings in china,

ukraine, kazakhstan. senator ron johnson wants the fbi to look into why we didn't get more on this either question or both. take your pick. >> i will hit both. if that is okay. first of all the biden crime syndicate seems to be broadening. we do need an fbi investigation into this. i think, the attorney general may need to have a special prosecutor because no matter who wins, someone inside of the justice department needs to be investigating this. the american people deserve to know that hunter biden and joe biden's brother were out around the world selling access to the then vice president of the united states for eight years. this is a disgusting display. we saw it during the clinton administration. we saw it during the hillary clinton campaign in 16. that is, it is an important issue but back to the polling for a moment, the polling this year, every network, bar none is garbage. they don't understand the trump voter.

they don't create a methodology for their polling that is reflective of 2020. they didn't in 2016. we had what was called the undervote in 2016. in brexit for the first time it was ever seen. then it was here in the united states in november of 16. and we've seen it ever since. with over the last four years, with the culture of, you know, cancel, wars that have been going on, people losing family members, people losing jobs, people being attacked for wearing a make america great hat or a kid wearing a trump t-shirt, it is, it is enough to make people, one, lie to pollsters. two, just not be vocal. we're seeing this undervote everywhere. you see the intensity where we, where donald trump right now, president trump is having 10, 12, 15,000 people during a pandemic show up and joe biden can barely get a dozen people in

a room. it is, indoor or outdoor. it is embarrassing for the biden campaign. why they don't do many events. it is very similar to hillary clinton in 2016. jedediah: corey, i want to ask you, pete had referenced the hunter biden allegations with reference to the emails but the bigger story for a lot of people, silicon valley, social media, select tiff dissemination of of information, inherent bias in these platforms that are supposed to be free thinking platforms people go to see news and is that a key issue that people will carry with them to the polls and, using to help make their decision who to vote for this time around? >> jedediah, it is amazing. we have the fourth largest newspaper in the country, the "new york post" which was censored by both facebook and twitter because of the content they said was leaked to them

before it was published in a mainstream publication. look if that is the criteria, how can "the new york times" print donald trump's tax returns which we know were leaked? look, the left has taken over big tech. i think the only thing we can do is we need the members of the united states senate to subpoena these individuals, not via zoom, to be there in the room, answer questions, start imposing fines on these people for stopping free speech. ron johnson said he will do this. lindsey graham will remove the protections under section 230. it is his life work to do that. if jack dorsey wants to censor people, how about 100 million-dollar fine for every person who couldn't distribute the information? i think amazing how quickly that company would change. it is amazing how they censor kaleigh mcenany's press email, her twitter feed as the% secretary of the white house say she can't disseminate information. this is disgusting. people are tired of this

should die in a fire in january 2017. pete, i'd just add that to the fact that we know and we talked about yesterday 99% of twitter employees donate to democrats. if you look, i wanted to look a little deeper, steve scully, who was scheduled to moderate the second debate works for joe biden, savannah guthrie, her husband worked for al gore, judge stephanopoulos -- george stephanopoulos worked for bill clinton. pete: the group think inside those industries, whether it's journalism or silicon valley or higher education, it will not toll late a full-throated -- tolerate a full-throated conservative in those enenvironments. it doesn't exist. will: or simply an objective neutral -- pete: yeah. because being neutral is being complicit with donald trump or republicans or conservatives. jedediah: yeah. pete: it's one of those

realities in our politics that is baked in. consider this, jed, "the new york post" is the fourth largest newspaper in america. they got a story based on a laptop that joe biden and hunter biden will not deny is hunter biden and's will not deny the e-mails are his, and e-mails show collaboration with foreign governments to enrich themselves. yet twitter's approach is suppress the story after running with tax returns or dossiers for years and years and years. to will's point, this probably fires up people even more on the president's side than it does suppress the story. jedediah: yeah. and i think what's problematic about social media and silicon valley is the way they present themselves, right? oh, we're here to provide a forum, to go straight to the people, to allow you to express yourself freely, to exercise your first amendment rights. you're going to decide. that's the way they present themselves, and that's not what people are seeing. they're seeing inherent bias in

the officials which wouldn't be problematic if that bias didn't transition over into how twitter executives are doing their job and what they're enforcing, what they're allowing to attire on the web site -- appear on the web site, what they're flagging and not flagging. it looks like there's a clear political agenda here time and again, and that is problematic because it is supposed to be a neutral platform. and if that's not who they are anymore, then they should change their business model and redefine who they are and go for it. go for it if that's what you want to be, if you want to be partisan, you have a right to create a company that does that as well, but you don't have a right to mislead the public on that issue, and that's what you're doing. will: that's absolutely true. meanwhile, president trump with just two weeks away -- is that where we were? -- until the election, he's hitting all the battleground statements, and he's talking about joe biden's campaign strategy. listen to this. >> you know, biden made a speech -- i think it was today.

he makes so few of them. i like delaware, but does he ever leave delaware? he's speaking, and there's nobody there. and i'm saying nobody reports that, and he never leaves his little area. i meet with a lot of people. i cannot, i have have an obliga. i can't lock myself into a basement in the white house, into a beautiful bedroom at the top of the white house. we could be, you know, there's no risk, no nothing. i'm the president of the united states. will: meanwhile, this is the president's schedule in the coming weeks. sunday he's going to be in nevada, monday in arizona both tucson and prescott. tuesday in pennsylvania and wednesday in north carolina. on the biden campaign's approach, what is confirmed right now is a voter mobilization: in north carolina. you had a debate about whether talking about joe biden's strategy is good policy. pete, you contended it's about, i guess, showing an image,

showing leadership, drawing the contrast, getting out there and, therefore, inspiring the american people. jedediah, you'd rather him talk about policies. i'm not trying to play the middleman here, you can do both. you can talk about policies but also lead by example on getting out there and interacting and engaging in the american economy and the american public. pete: yeah, i think it is both. that clip is a small portion of the entirety of multiple speeches over the course of multiple days, the theme of one of which was back the blue, openly saying we support law enforcement, openly saying, openly saying i don't want more lockdowns, i don't want national mask mandates while also hosting big rallies in person with people to motivate them and calling out a basement strategy i think further reinforces the idea of people who themselves feel frustrated and held back, their own lives have been held back way more than the science speaks to especially at this point. that's an issue voters will respond to. and, you know, jed, you talk a

lot about pocketbook. if your livelihood has been crushed by this, it's something that could appeal to you as well. jedediah: yeah. and, i mean, will, just to your point, i think that getting out there, that is his strategy, right? he got covid-19, he came back, he hit the campaign trail hard and heavy, he's out there, he's doing the rallies. he's entitled to that strategy, and it's clearly resonating with many people or who are attending those rallies. that's a decision he's making. all i'm saying is keep it positive, do what you're doing. i think a lot of this pivoting back to joe biden's hiding in the basement, you don't need to go there. you're putting your message out, talk about policy, keep it positive. i think people are hungry right now more than anything for someone who's going to fix the problem. they know the situation. they've suffered at the hands of covid-19 in some way, either themselves, a family member or their business. i think get it. they get the situation with the lockdown. what they're looking is for someone to say i understand what's gone on, this is how

we're going to fix it. and, let's face it, there are going to be people who agree with the biden camp's strategy and i say, listen, i practice social distancing, i understand why he's not on the ground. so i think that all leaves a lot of muddiness in the water, i should say. just focus on the issues and tell people why you're the guy that they should walk into that voting booth and vote for. ultimately, that is going to be the winner of the election. and we asked -- will: one thing i would just say, the problem is he doesn't have a press that can be trusted to do the research and background on stories that other side they should. so a story like hunter biden is effectively muted and suppressed. if donald trump -- jedediah: that's different. pete: -- doesn't talk about it, nobody does, and there's no way to positively talk about the fact that munter biden -- hunter biden was scheming to enrich that family, so he's got to do it. he's got to define, on the negative side, joe biden, because the press won't dig. and to will's point, i think you

can do both. he doesn't want to raise taxes, doesn't want to keep our border open, things like that. and, oh, by the way, here's the joe you would get. jedediah: yeah. and that's different, i think. the hunter biden story, if he wants to talk about that and the issues, that's completely different. my advice would be to leave the insults out of it it. people have eyes, they can see that joe biden is performing very differently in front of his strategy. they see it, they either like it or don't. at this point you like what president trump or joe biden are doing or you don't. put that behind you, let the rally or the lack thereof speak for itself, get to the issues. will: i like that. i think it's a perfectly good and fine strategy and draw a stark contrast. i do think there is value in the imagery of strike a reasonable tone in our approach to covid-19. if he thinks joe biden's tone and imagery is showing a nation in fear and paralyzed, i am okay with him pointing to that. i think we do need to strike reasonable approaches to how

rewe -- we reengage our economy. pete: maybe this'll a be a topic at the debate. turning now to your headlines, federal officers deploying tear gas and pepper spray in portland overnight. video shows dozens of demonstrators surrounding police and chanting at officers. it's unclear at this point if any arrests were made. and a new wildfire burning neurobolder, colorado -- near boulder, colorado, burning 7,000 acres after ig night yesterday morning. people in the town of lyons on high alert preparing to evacuate and escape the fast-moving flames. nearly 1,000 homes are in the area of concern. and the uss stout returned to norfolk naval station covered in rust after spending a record-breaking 215 days at sea. it stayed out at sea over covid-19 concerns, traveling the more than 60,000 miles around

going to vote for you, especially in those swing congressional districts. so, again, you've got to energize your own base as well as those sliver of independent voters. you've got to target them yourself. no former president can win that for you. will: lawrence, you live in new york city -- >> sadly, yes. will: we're both texans who have moved to new york city. i've got to tell you, it's interesting when the news starts to pick up on private conversations you've had. i've had conversations with people who don't want to be here after the election. it turns out a lot of people feel that way. there's sort of an anticipation not only of an exodus from new york city around that time, nervousness about what could come, but an nypd memo has revealed they're preparing for protests after the election starting as early as october 25th and escalating all the way into the new year. lawrence, as i said, you live in new york, you're plugged into both the police department and what happens on the streets of new york. what do you think the reaction will be here and perhaps other

cities across this country depending upon the election results? >> yeah. that's that made it for the worse. i mean, to be honest, it's been bad for a minute. not only are they dealing with the murders, but as you know, there's a counterterrorism unit in new york city that is always on hand making sure that this city is safe, and now you've got to deal with now protests that -- and riots that could potentially happen if one candidate doesn't win. and so i think it's despicable. i think you're just going to see more people leave this great city because of that. and, again, as i talked to my sources every single day, they're telling officers you can't take off during this period of time. you cannot retire. they have reached their limit for retirement. and now you see that the police academy, they're trying to get more people into these police are academies because now there's a shortage of cops on the street because people just don't want to do the job anymore. will: really quickly, so is the anticipation that if donald trump wins, it could get ugly in

♪ ♪ pete: a chilling new report warning the u.s. about china's view to take americans hostage if the doj doesn't drop its prosecution of chinese scientists. "the wall street journal" reporting, quote, the chinese message has been blunt, the u.s. should drop prosecutions of chinese scholars in american courts, or americans in china might find themselves in violation of chinese law. here to discuss, fox news senior strategic analyst and retired four-star general jack keane. general, thanks so much for being here. we're going to get comments on iran and russia as well, but what the u.s. is saying that these scientists concealed from immigration authorities their active duty status with the people's liberation army, therefore, we've detained them. should we take seriously that china will do the same to american this is. >> oh, yeah, absolutely. first of all, this is so-called visa proud to. these are actually research -- fraud. these are actually research

scientists here to do what? to spy. they're here to conduct espionage. they got caught at it, and they've been arrested. china wants to retaliate. they've done this kind of realuation with the canadians -- realuation with the canadians, now they've got two of them arrested, chinese executives from huawei they have arrested x they've also done it with the australians and swedes. we're arresting spies what china will likely do is detain americans who have done nothing. they are not guilty of anything. so in that sense, it's not like the cold war with the soviet union, we arrested their spies, we arrested ours, and we exchanged them at at some point. so, yes, when you started out and said they're hostages, that would be an appropriate description of what the chinese intend to do. pete: it's such a demonstration of the rule of law. of course, they're in violation so they're arrested over there that doesn't matter, they'll find any reason whatsoever and certainly could escalate the

tension between us and china. there has been a arms embargo to iran, that has now expined under the iranian nuclear deal that president trump pulled us out of. why would this allowed to expire for iran, and what will it mean? >> yeah. this is another flaw in that so-called jcpoa or nuclear deal that the obama administration entered into with iran in 2015. it meant that in five years -- and here we are, 2020, five years later -- the nuclear, excuse me, the weapons embargo that was imposed is over. and it means that they can't sell and they can't buy. and as you said, all advance missiles, tanks, airplanes, etc. the reason why the embargo was there is because iran's behavior aggressively and malign behavior destabilizing the middle east -- war in syria, war in yemen,

using iranian-backed approximate is says in iraq -- proxies in iraq, attacking israel through syria on a regular basis using rockets and everything -- the fact is that behavior is what the embargo was trying to stop. and the nuclear deal has now, because it is so fundamentally flawed, the nuclear deal is permitting that arms embargo to go away. and the united states tried to do manager about it, went to the u.n., tried to get a resolution passed to extend the deal which makes sense, and that resolution failed. so here's where we are, and that's the fact. the iranians are strapped for money though, so they're not going to be able to buy a lot because of the u.s. sanctions that are imposed on them. russia and china are the likely candidates to sell to them, for sure, as we go forward. pete: unbelievable. the white house has rejected vladimir putin. he responded to the u.s. nuclear

arms proposal that was negotiated under the obama/biden administration. so where are we on missiles and whether or not we should be in an agreement with russia, and why does it matter? >> well, this is the s.t.a.r.t. treaty, and this is a treaty that restricts the number of nuclear weapons that the united states and russia can have. and it's the treaty that makes enormous sense and helps to maintain stability in the world. the restriction sod number -- is our numbers around 1700 each, and what are we talking about? ballistic and submarine missiles that nuclear weapons out of silos and submarines, also air-drirred nuclear bombs from our strategic bombers. that's where the restriction is. and what we're trying to do is extend it another five years. the united states thought we had a deal over a week ago, pete, when our negotiators said, listen, the russians is have agreed at least to a framework -- not signed the deal yet, but to framework -- that

will extend the treaty a year, and they will freeze all nuclear weapons development. within 24 hours, the russians came out and said that's a fantasy. so something happened there. speculation is putin got into this, said, no, i don't want to do that. and further speculation, and that's all it is, is that he didn't want to give president trump a huge political victory close to the election. pete: interesting. general jack keane breaking it all down for us, we really appreciate your time. dangerous world. >> good talking to you, pete. pete: all right. coming up, as we just mentioned, it all comes back to russia. congressman adam schiff blaming the kremlin, the russians, for the e-mails on hunter biden's laptop specially showing a link between the bidens, ukraine and china. we'll discuss with congressman jim jordan. but first, before the presidential e the debate kicks off, we asked viewers to pick america's question, and here's the winning question: how many times will joe biden say the

♪ ♪ >> we know that this whole smear on joe biden comes from the

kremlin. that's been clear for well over a year now, that they've been pushing this false narrative about the vice president and his son. will: there you have it from congressman adam schiff, the story about hunter biden's i e-mails, it's just a smear campaign on joe biden coordinated by the kremlin. russian disinformation, says adam schiff. let's ask ohio gop congressman jim jordan who's with us now. good morning, congressman. >> good to be with you. will: let me start with evidence. is there anything, is there any evidence right now that leads you or anyone else in congress to not just believe, but to know that the hunter biden story is a russian disinformation campaign? >> no. we actually think, we had some conversation, our staff had some conversation over the last couple days, we actually think the e-mails are authentic. adam schiff shouldn't surprise us, he's only said that for four years, and never forget what we learned a couple weeks ago with

brennan's notes. actually, the person who was conjuring this hoax up was secretary clinton, and she did anytime an effort to hide the fact that she destroyed 30,000 e-mails. yeah, we think these things are the real i mauls, and we want to move forward. the big problem is big tech is censoring this information from getting to the american people. will: right. just a quick follow-up, because when this stuff happens, congressman, the facts and evidence are is so important. not only is there no evidence of a russian disinformation campaign, but you're telling me now, and we at fox also, believe, have authenticated some of though ez mails from hunter biden are clearly real. the origination of the laptop, what is evidence, what do we know at this point is authenticated and real from that part of the story? >> well, we haven't seen the laptop, but we do believe that the e-mails that have been out there that people have seen, bedo believe those are real based on information that some folks from our staff on the judiciary committee have spoken

to. and, frankly, i think it's been pointed out the last few days the bidens haven't said this is not real, they haven't said it's not their laptop. i think that's a pretty important piece of information. so, again, i just -- when you're 16 days before an election and you have big tech making sure americans don't see this information, i think that is a big problem. and that's something we have to deal with. jedediah: congressman, another component of all this is the fbi. we know now that hunter biden also reportedly had business dealings in kaszikstan, and ron johnson has come out saying the fbi needs to provide answers on all of this. there's also been a lot of questions about when the f or bi got this information and why they kept it for so long without acting on that information or doing anything about it. can you update us on that at all? >> no, i mean, but don't hold your breath. remember, we haven't got a whole lot from chris wray. frankly, when the information was declassified, it was ric

grenell and john ratcliffe who told us there was no proper predicate for launching this whole hoax back in '16 when the obama/biden intelligence committee and the fbi launched it. i wouldn't hold your breath waiting for chris wray to give us information, and we shouldn't be surprised that hunter biden is dealing with kazahkstan. i don't think that's a surprise, but i'm not holding my breath waiting on fbi. we've just got to do our investigation the best we can, get the facts not american people and, hopefully, overcome this obstacle with big tech who is out to get conservatives, out to censor conservatives. that's not a suspicion, that's not a hunch, that is a fact. there's been evidence time and time again where they've done this. never forget, twitter censor the president, but they'll let the eye ayatollah of iran saying he's going to strike a blow against american citizens. go figure that. so this is a big concern. we've introduced legislation, 12 of us on the judiciary

committee, to overturn and fundamentally change section 2330. pete: that's -- 230. that's good to hear. i want to get, briefly, to the implications of these mails. based on what you've seen, is this a case of the vice president's son being a remember gaild, enriching himself, saying i'm going to use the connections but keep my father mostly in the dark, or do you -- what's your sense of how much the former vice president would have known about this, which is what really makes it a serious story if he knows it's going on and allowing it and then lying about it. that's a big deal. >> yeah. i mean, we don't know. what we do know though is what joe biden has said on tape, that he had no idea, no involvement whatsoever in his son's business dealings. now, he said that. the e-mails seemed to point to something different. so that's what we'll are have to explore. but more importantly, as i've said several times, i think the american people deserve to have this story and see this story. i think "the new york post"'s account is still shut down. i know they shut down the house

judiciary gop's account. the american people, when you're talking two and a half weeks before a major election are, presidential election, this kind of information marley when it goes back to just a year ago when this was involved in the whole impeachment proceeding the democrats tried to do against president trump, i think it makes sense to be able to evaluate this information which we believe is true, to evaluate for their own. wisconsin will congressman jordan, we've got to ask you about this, could it come this week? house speaker -- or, rather, treasury secretary mnuchin is negotiating a new covid relief package. americans needing some help. is there any hope something passes this week? >> well, we'll see. look, if it's ppp and money for american families and taxpayers, that's one thing. but if it's bailing out these things with tax dollars from the 4th district of ohio, that's a different issue. so we'll have to see what the package looks like. but never forget the best

stimulus is to open up the country. think about it. right now our economy is coming back strong. the great american comeback. but we still have six of the biggest states largely locked down, new jersey, new york, pennsylvania, illinois, michigan, california still largely locked down. imagine if those states would to open up, how strong this comeback would be. that's the best thing we can do, but we'll see how the negotiations go. if it's something that's going to help small business owners and american families, that's one thing. but i don't know that's where moses wants to go. -- pelosi wants to go. will: we'll see. congressman, thank you so much for your time this morning. >> you bet. thank you. will: turning now to your headlines, president trump signed a bipartisan bill into law, 988 will be the national suicide hotline number starting in 2022. the measure allows statements to collect fees to help -- states to collect fees to help with increased call volumes and calls on government agencies to improve support service.

and a new sculpture honoring women in the military is on display outside arlington national cemetery. the pledge shows female service member kneeling to meet her working dog. an artist was commissioned to create the life-sized bronze sculpture. and a new james bond movie will show the super spy less than usual. no time to die will not include bond in the pre-credit she questioning which hasn't -- sequel. the opening set focuses on a new character. the film, which has been delayed multiple times due to the pandemic, is set to release in april. you know, scrolling through movie selections last night on amazon prime if, it's getting slim. pete: it's getting slim. will: yeah. no production. those are your headlines this morning. pete: i don't know, less bond in bond movies doesn't strike me as the best idea. why are you watching donald? will: right. pete: well, there's a lot of reasons to watch bond. will: what are those? we have to go.

♪ ♪ jedediah: san francisco school districts pushing to change the names of nearly four dozen schools deemed inappropriate including those named after former presidents washington and lincoln and even california senator dianne feinstein. but the move blasted by the mayor for spending the time and resources on renaming our schools instead of reopening them. how do san francisco parents who are carrying the burden of

virtual learning feel about this? jonathan alloy is the father of two young children in the district, and he joins me now. jonathan, welcome to the show. you have two children, 8 and 9 years old, i believe, that have been doing virtual learning. so when you hear the priorities right now in terms of renaming schools as opposed to reopening schools, how does that make you feel in. >> good morning, jed. thank you so much for having me on this morning. i'm like many san francisco parents who definitely support a process in the name of racial justice. we definitely believe that black lives matter, and it's appropriate to take a hard look at who we are honoring our school names. but right now the focus really should be on reopening the schools because that's how we actualize that justice in reality. we don't help disadvantaged children if we rename a school they can't attend. if we think about children of military families, children of single parents, churn of essential -- children of

essential workers, they are having a large achievement gap because of distance learning. in san francisco and nationwide due to the pandemic. what we need to do is help them learn, help them overcome the achievement gap. and the way to do that is to put the resources into reopening schools. here in san francisco we have a very strong mayor. she's a very strong black woman, she's from san francisco, she grew up in public housing and attended sf public schools. she has vociferously said the focus needs to be on reopening, and we're able to do that because she believes in science, she believes in listening to public health experts. and as a result, we all wear masks, we have one of the lowest if not the lowest rate of covid transmission of any large city in america, so we can reopen our economy. we can reopen our schools. jedediah: yeah. yeah, jonathan, it seems to me that many people in san francisco are supporting the idea of renaming, they're not

necessarily against it, they just feel that the timing is not right in terms of let's reopen the schools first, and then let's have that second daughter conversation. i want to read you -- secondary conversation. i want coto read you a quote. the district appreciates that the advisory committee's timing may be difficult for some schools that have con viewed -- conveyed concerns regarding the recommendation of challenges at this time due to the pandemic. i want to assure you reopening schools is in no way being held up by the community process the school renaming panel is engaged in. is essentially saying, don't worry, we can do both things at once. do you buy that? >> i respectfully disagree with mr. sanchez in that the principal of our school, for example, is having to spend time focusing on renaming. every hour she spends on that is an how hour that we're not speng on providing high quality education to our disadvantaged and vulnerable children.

we need to get through the issue of reopening the schools, and e we can do multiple things at one time, but it's all about prioritization. my daughter, as you said, is 8 years old. she just had her birthday. you probably remember e when you turned 8 years old, and you loved having a birthday with your friends. she couldn't da that because of the pandemic. let's be clear, this pandemic has resulted because of the administration's failure to take covid seriously, and they put out disinformation, and they have cost the lives of more than 200,000 americans and counting. that is a tragedy. that is terrible. just because we are in a situation -- yes, ma'am? jedediah: yeah, no, i was just going to -- we're running out of time, but i just want to let you know i definitely appreciate your input, and i think that you're sending a very valuable message and a nuanced message that is appreciated about your own two children and what needs

to be a priority, and i think you echo the sentiments of likely many people in san francisco. thank you, jonathan, for joining us today. october is fire prevention month, and we have tips to help keep you and your family safe. a home contractor shows us how to fireproof our homes, and that's coming up next. finish

fire situations. really going to make a big difference in giving you more time to get out of that fire. next thing, this is the time you want the check your smoke detectors, make sure they're all working. i like this, this is a smoke and carbon monoxide detector combined in one. the best part about these, they have a 10-year sealed battery so there's no worry. all the batteries are inside. but these interconnect with one another. so if you have a smoke deit can to have in your basement on every level of the house, one inside all your sleeping areas, if there's a fire, let's say, in the basement and you're upstairs in the bedroom, because these all interconnect, wherever that fire is, it's going to set all the alarms off, and that's going to give you earlier warning and allow you to get out faster. so these are very easy installation, there's no wires, they're battery only and super easy install. of course, you have a 10-year bat true.

think about it we've had one presidential debate, didn't have a second, we'll have a third on thursday, but a fifth and probably upwards of a quarter of the american population will have voted by that debate, still anticipating a lot of people coming out to vote on election day, and there could be a big partisan difference in the break down of who actually goes down polls versus mailing it. in the president had a couple rallies yesterday. joe biden was in his basement, well we just know he was in delaware all day with a lid on it and donald trump hitting the campaign trail and he talked about that early vote and he was in wisconsin for a back the blue rally and then in michigan this is what he said. president trump: this election day the people of michigan must stop these anti-american radical s by issuing joe biden and his group a thundering defeat at the ballot box. and by the way, seems to be happening. we're supposed to be way behind until election day when all the republicans go and you're going to have a red wave like

you've never seen before. >> [applause] president trump: and even the fake news media is saying that we'll have a wave. so just it just came out. we're leading. >> [applause] president trump: early voting, but there's a lot of concern going on out there, this sounds like a little bit like four years ago, but this should be much bigger because we've done everything we said and more. will: we talked about the number of voters, go ahead, jedediah. jedediah: yeah, it's just a really interesting election right? i mean, lots of early voting and we understand why, perhaps with covid-19 people are wanting to get that donald they will try to avoid lots of the chaos on election day but then you have to say to yourself are they voting early and then you'll have lower numbers on election day itself and others saying no you'll have a big wave for the red on election day so a lot remains to be seen. it's just a really interesting election like we haven't seen in

a very long time, and there will be a lot to learn from the results in many respects. we had tom beven on earlier from real clear politics talking about in-person voting versus mail-in voting and how it effect s both parties take a listen to his take on it. >> all the polling data shows the democrats are, you know, by 20 or 30 points have suggested that they are going to turn out early and mail in their ballots use it as their preferred option this time around. republicans about two-thirds to three-quarters of republicans say they aren't doing that they show up on election day so there will be a red wave on election day in terms of republicans turning out to vote. meanwhile, democrats will have banked a lot of their vote early , via these various options, and so i think republicans actually in some of these states feel pretty good about where they are in terms of their early vote and again, they are counting on a big turn out on election day. jedediah: i think a lot of people, will, i think they are going to show up on election day

, as we've said for a very long time and it's becoming even more obvious now these are two very different candidates very different visions and regardless of where people stand on that political spectrum they are very passionate about these issues that are front and center so i think this is going to be big numbers that roll in. what do you think? will: well the numbers are coming in and we're seeing greater than historical expectations on early voting and the real interesting point is the contrast between the enthusiasm of president trump's in-person rallies versus the polling that suggested joe biden still maintains a lead. we're seeing it tightening up in places like florida but when it comes to michigan, pennsylvania, wisconsin biden according to the polls still has a lead. how do you explain that? how do you explain what you're seeing in person versus the poll s? this morning we've talked about various explanations. we talked about is it, again, in competence of the polsters and is it manipulation by the polsters and is it the silent voter and pete you brought up the most interesting, d, polling and voting are not the same thing. enthusiasm is more reflect

reflecting of voting showing you're willing to go to a rally and you really care about a candidate is more closely tied to showing up in the poll and when i say poll i mean to vote. pete: yes and that can't show up in a poll, and that's why maybe part of the reason why they were so wrong before. we had corey lewandowski and david bossie on the program earlier nobody knows the president better and they effectively said all of the above. i also think a big difference this time the president alluded to in that clip we've played we've done everything we said and more from trade deals to immigration to ending foreign wars, to supreme court picks, three who would have imagined that four years ago. president running on a record now, which is an increase in enthusiasm amongst his supporters who were more skeptical before and consider what he ran against, which is what he always reminds the voter s of as well, whether it's being surveilled on his campaign, the whole robert mueller russian collusion thing, ukraine, the phone call, and the

impeachment, adam schiff was in the middle of all of that always yelling russia, right? well now we've got hunter biden 's laptop and we know he won't deny it's his neither will joe biden and the new york post runs the story and silicon valley sensors it. adam schiff in light of all of that, his explanation for the whole thing, well watch. >> we know that this whole smear on joe biden comes from the kremlin. that's been clear for well over a year now they've been pushing this false narrative about the vice president and his son. will: jed you've got to help me here. how do you go from, how do they decouple the facts of this individual instance which we're learning more and more about that it was his laptop, these were his e-mails, and there was some sort of a scheme to his family, how do you de couple that and say no, this is all about russia and expect people to buy that? jedediah: i think because you have now reports that the fbi is

investigating a potential russian disinformation campaign and there have been a lot of questions about the fbi some have been saying the fbi got this information and held on to it for a long time before doing anything about it why did that happen but that the story now the fbi is looking into this that now it shifted over to russia and people are saying well let's see is any of this real and authentic and there is concerns about the sourcing so there's a lot of questions that remain about this story and a lot figured out i expect within the next couple of weeks and also the timing of it, and it's right pre-election so will we have answers? will people actually know what went on here before they go and cast their votes that also remains to be seen but we had a guest on earlier representative jim jordan who weighed in on some of what you just asked, pete on why schiff is wrong in his opinion and here is what he had to say. >> we actually think the e-mails are authentic and real. adam schiff saying otherwise shouldn't surprise us he's only said that for four years and never forget, will what we just learned a couple weeks ago with

brennans notes and the person conjuring this whole russia hoax up was secretary clinton and she did it in an effort to hide the fact she destroyed 30,000 e-mails. the bidens haven't said this is not real. they haven't said it's not their laptop and these e-mails aren't real. that's a pretty important piece of information, so again, i just when you're 16 days before an election and you have big tech making sure americans don't see this information, i think that is a big problem, and that's something we have to deal with. will: well it's in doubt edly true there's still questions to be answered on this story let's review a few of those quickly. when it comes to russia potential disinformation campaign it's true that we have been warned they might try to meddle in the 2020 election like reportedly they attempted to in 2016. but there is zero evidence that this story has anything to do, zero evidence of any direct russian involvement in this story. there's no factual tie. only a background to this story as of yet. on the other hand here had facts that we know about this hunter

biden story. the e-mails, many of which, have already been authenticated by independent news agencies, as well as we heard from jim jordan, as real e-mails from hunter biden to a ukrainian source. also, the man who received the laptop although many are pointing out he's legally blind that doesn't mean you can't see , says it was hunter biden who dropped off the laptop at his repair shop. these are facts that have been authenticated to this point. what more is you point out this morning there's no denial from biden, neither joe nor hunter that's his laptop nor his e-mails. there are facts that we know at this point, there are also many many more questions but right now the facts are as they are, and there are none that this particular story is a russian disinformation campaign. pete: according to twitter you're not allowed to hear those facts from the fourth largest newspaper in america, the new york post, instead it is censored, and there's a point at which people say, i know,

enough is enough. will: we'll continue to ask those questions and try to get to the bottom of this story and if any of those facts change , or as they come in, we will be dedicated to delivering them to you here. let's turn now to your morning headlines. a free speech rally turns violent in california, hundreds of alleged antifa members storm the conservative event in san francisco before fighting broke out. pro-trump demonstrators organiz ed the rally to denounce big tech censorship as we were just talk about but watch as a demonstrator who led the rally is punched in the face. we want to warn you this picture shows the result of that punch of that attack is graphic. the conservative demonstrator left bloodied and beaten up and his tooth knocked out in the attack and the conservative group had to get a police escort and no arrests have been made. >> this just in moments ago spacex falcon 9 rocket taking off on its latest mission. >> 3-2-1-0.

death of 32-year-old stinley as she walked along the pier with her father and a friend. the defense was that the defendant picked up a gun and even though he is a seven- time convicted felon, he didn't realize it was a gun and it just went off and it shot ste inle dead. all right, can't do anything about that and he did get convicted on that not guilty was convicted of felony possession of a firearm and now he's going up that was vacated and now he's got two federal charges on felony possession of a firearm and illegal immigrant in possession of a firearm. in court, for a guy that they are now claiming is incompetent, he has a very firm grasp on the law when he himself told a judge that i'm tired of waiting, judge, i don't want to plead guilty, or go home to mexico. i've been sitting in the county jail way too long, four and a half years. now in my mind, that shows a great deal of little competence. i have tried competency hearings

and it simply means, not that you're insane at the time of the incident, not that you're insane, but are you able to assist your lawyer at the time of the trial? the federal magistrate on his own has decided that this guy may be incompetent, he's been evaluated by a psychiatrist and the long story short, if he can be controlled by medication, he will come back and stand trial. it's just another hurdle for the victim's family. jedediah: yeah, i mean, i'm no crime expert but this competence claim seems a bit odd to me particularly at this stage of the case, but let's shift over to another case that's fascinated people for quite some years now. the california supreme court has ordered scott peterson's murder convictions to be re-examined and i'm seeing here that a juror 's "prejudice all" misconduct is coming into play. can you explain what's going on there? >> yes, i question who exactly is driving the bus of the

california supreme court. they just had a hearing within the last couple of months where they basically sent the death penalty portion of the trial back down claiming the death penalty was tainted, so now, on habeas corpus they are looking at the behavior of juror number seven, michelle niece, and they are saying that she basically lied about her status. she said she was not a crime victim and they are saying because she had filed a tro against her boyfriend, ex- girlfriend, for harassing her , that she was a crime victim now, the overall picture is, will that change the outcome of a trial? if it's so pre judicial that they have to have a new trial on guilt or innocence. lace it and conor's family is devastated and there may be an

entirely new trial but instead of overtly reversing this the california supreme court has sent it back down to the superior court, the local trial court, to determine what really happened. i predict they are going to have to hear from juror number seven, doug, strawberry short cake at the time, hear from themselves. jedediah: yup and of course nancy it's great insight as always into these cases and you provide that for fox nation viewers all the time in crime stories which you can host and people can get a copy of your few book "don't be a victim" a must read at nancygracebook.com. thank you as always, nancy grace >> thank you. jedediah: still ahead retired race car driver danica patrick made history on the racetrack and now she's accomplished a new victory helping give out scholarships to military families and she joins us live with lt. colonel dan rooney, next.

retired race car legend danica patrick and folds of honor founder lt. colonel dan rooney joined us here on fox & friends with their partnership to give back to military families in need. well let's fast forward to today , danica's grand prix give away helped raise enough money to provide 50 scholarships to families including one whose here with us today let's bring in world-renowned retired race car driver danica patrick the founder of folds of honor lt. colonel dan rooney, and lauren and christian wong, they all join me now. thank you all for being here. danica, update our audience you vowed to do something for military families and you delivered tell us about it. >> yeah, well you know we announced obviously at the beginning of the summer that they were going to do this campaign, and raise money for the wounded, the disabled and the fallen family members to support them. it's just a really cool program that had an incredible response.

there was one of the biggest responses i think in history for omaze and i'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact that it was a yacht in monaco with ro se and formula one cars. pete: and danica patrick. >> well thank you but a good cause so anytime you can pair up an event with a good cause it really resonates with people so the response has been incredible i have a feeling that a large percentage was my friends and family, as i think i heard from all of them like i said last time, but really really cool and dan has created such an amazing platform for so many family members to benefit from people just resonating with giving back and serving in the way that we can. pete: absolutely, well i believe you have, you can reveal to us how much you raised, can you? >> yeah, i can.

thank goodness this check isn't the size of like happy gilmore checks, but i think you can see that is $252,000 and change and incredible incredible campaign. i remember hearing along the way how it was going and we exceeded even my expectations, so hopefully, the family members can serve 50 scholarships that's incredible with one campaign. pete: dan are you happy? >> oh, yeah we're so blessed, danica doing god's work together with you is an honor and a privilege and you hit it right on the head. it's 50 scholarships for spouses and children that get to go to school because you are a hero of mine and a true patriot thank you for doing this and we get to meet a couple recipients which is always the highlight for me. pete: yes we do lauren and christian you served our nation for 21 years you're recipients

of this scholarship how does it change your life? >> yeah, so it's just made so much of an easier job to focus on being a student rather than having to worry about the financial burden of school and just a fantastic job at honoring our father's sacrifice and its been really helpful overall to our family. pete: lauren four years for you, right? four year scholarship? >> we each got two years. pete: got it well two is great too. go ahead. >> yeah its just been an incredible opportunity to just pursue my education and to just kind of be able to have the opportunity to pursue a major in a degree that really means a lot to me and is close to my heart. pete: what is that major by the way, share it with us. >> i'm currently majoring in physiology on a pre-med track. pete: and christian how about you? >> mathematics and computer science. pete: there will be plenty of jobs in that field, i have no doubt. danica to see the faces of the

lives you're changing what it did mean to you? >> it's just always makes it real no matter what charity work i do, seeing people in person or seeing them from a distance, seeing them at a race back in the day, or in this unique platform that we have now in 2020, it always resonates a lot deeper and to hear the voices, i'm so glad, i'm so glad for that and thank you guys for getting on and wow, your majors made me sound a little insecure. pete: all of us, we're all a little more insecure right now because of their expertise. thank you so much, colonel roone y, as always you're the man you deliver we're so grateful, thank you. >> god bless, thank you guys. pete: and you sent me another t-shirt which i appreciate. always. as the new york post battles twitter over sharing their story on hunter biden, they have a new look at anti-trump bias from some of the sites top executives laura logan here to react to that, coming up next.

(grandma vo) it's the most important thing you can do! will: we've been telling you about big tech companies facing backlash after censoring report critical of joe biden and his

son hunter. pete: you are not allowed to see it but it should come as a surprise the new york post breaking down in their paper the long history of anti-trump tweets posted by twitter's very own executives including one that says get him out. jedediah: fox nation host laura logan joins us now to react, welcome. we want to get your reaction to lots of stuff but first and foremost want to share with you the new york post reviewed some of these tweets from senior executives and they are very anti-trump. the first one says get him out, posted a senior site reliability engineer on august 18. what a baboon. one manager with nine years on-the-job calls trump an idiot and the voters who elected him stupid people one twitter engineering manager said trump should die in a fire in a january 2017 tweet. laura your reaction to these tweets that have been once again this is as per the new york post >> well, for me the most disturbing part is that twitter

has put itself now with the arb itor of what is true. jack dorsey said you can't use our platform to spread disinformation which is pretty ironic considering how much there is on the platform about the steele dossier and russia collusion and the entire conspiracy theory created by the left in order to hide criminal actions to undermine the government of this country but that comment about the people who voted for trump being stupid and racist and everything else, that really sums up what's been going on here for a long time, because trump is only the president for a moment. he was elected by the people. this is a government of the people, and really what we've been looking at since 201t in control of twitter and facebook and all these other sites that all have massive donations to the democratic political campaigns, and almost none to republicans, they believe that the people who voted for trump are stupid, and that they shouldn't have a right

to vote, and that we shouldn't trust the democracy with them. they know better. they all know better, and they're better than you and so that's why, you know, that's why it doesn't surprise us but the most disturbing part is that they are fact checkers, the head of fact checker at twitter, his the is literally a litany of abuse likening trump to hitler and his forces to nazis and kellyanne conway and yes, if anybody else does things like that, you get to removed and if you do it on the other side it gets removed and fact checked which is just an example of the terrible dishonesty and hypocrisy. will: you know, what you just described i've seen tax first- hand experienced that and seen that in other media companies a lot of us here have worked at other media companies and you have really interesting perspective on this because i have always said this , when it comes to the stuff we're seeing from twitter the overwhelmingly one-side edness of it, when we see that from media companies i have in the past said it's bias, it's not agenda.

it's overwhelming bias but they aren't going into it with a purpose. they don't have a goal in mind. i'm not so sure that's true any more. last couple of years i don't know if it's just bias. it might actually be agenda. we want to actually effect the outcome. do you think that's the case? >> see , you're much more diplomatic than me, right? because it's so obvious this is part of an agenda. it's very very clear because they say this in many tweets this is about the election and we know it how? because there's been such a significant ramping up of this effort, as we go into the election. it is absolutely extraordinary and you know, those stories trending on twitter on the side of the page, that's just a joke, right? because you have to look no further than millions and millions of sites and people and comments of people and what they are most interested in and they are all talking about the hunter biden story and they are all talking about the censorship, but you don't even see that trending on twitter. what do you see trending? the washington post fact check,

that biden never did, you know, never held on, had a prosecutor fired for his son, which is a very nuanced way of trying to deny the fact that biden did actually weild his power in office and it was the prosecutor and the ukrainian government looking into corruption there, so, you know, they are carrying water for the left, and they have been since 2016, but the worse part of it all is that they enjoy immunity from prosecution. the worst part is that the republicans and the democrat s allow them to get away with refuting anti- trust laws, they are a monopoly and they also claim this ridiculous status as a publisher, when they are not a publisher. they are actively intervening in free speech and the first amendment and the right of every american. pete: absolutely, lara, your show is a hit on fox nation and

it's because lara logan has no agenda. people are looking for that and that kind of perspective. we really appreciate your time, thank you. >> thank you so much. pete: you got it. all right we'll turn to a few additional headlines this morning. china vowing to take americans hostage if the doj doesn't drop prosecution of chinese scientists who also work for the military. that's according to the wall street journal the u.s. started arresting chinese scientists visiting american universities for research after learning that they concealed their status with the people's liberation army. fox news senior strategic analyst and retired four star general jack keane joined us earlier and he says china's reaction will escalate tension. >> what china will likely do is detain americans who have done nothing. they are not guilty of anything so in that sense it's not like the cold war with the soviet union. we arrested their spies they arrested ours and we exchanged them at some point. pete: we would call them hostages, the state department has not commented yet on that

report. >> and disneyland employees and fans rally outside the california theme park demanding it reopen. now those are super fans. it has been closed since march over covid-19 concerns. some of the 28,000 employees laid off by disney attended the rally. they are calling on governor gavin newsom to loosen covid-19 restrictions and reopen the park disney world in florida reopened in july. two disney, two different states >> check this out a woman builds a photo booth out of leg as and trains her dog to use it. she got the idea after failed attempts at teaching scraps to take selfies. all the dog has to do to take a picture is step on a pedal, which dispenses a treat, and those are your headlines. i don't know -- jedediah: amazing. pete: how much time one needs to have on their hands to do that and does the dog really know he's -- will: that is literally pavlov's

"sunday morning futures" host maria bartiromo on more of that message, next. >> ♪ ♪

pete: coming up in 14 minutes and 23 seconds, "sunday morning futures" has house majority leader kevin mccarthy and donald trump jr. and one topic you can surely count on, the economy.

that's the impact on the election as the president tells voters the choice has never been more clear. president trump: this election is a choice between a trump- strong powerful beautiful recovery and a biden depression. biden will shutdown the country, delay the vaccine and prolong the pandemic. i'm delivering a safe vaccine and a rapid recovery. biden's plan will crush michigan my plan will make this state stronger. will: here to react "sunday morning futures" host maria bartiromo whose going to be up in just a moment. maria, i imagine this is all about shutdowns right? this is all about lockdowns, responses to covid-19 and economic recovery he's describing, against a potential economic depression, that and taxes? maria: well for sure the economic story is really built around the policies of this administration. we've seen the needle really move because of things like tax

legislation, the deregulatory program cutting out middlemen, the red tape that is really what got us to a 3.5% unemployment rate back in february earlier this year before covid-19 arrived and now when you look at what joe biden has talked about, he's talked about raising taxes by $4.3 trillion, talked about taking the corporate rate all the way backup to 28% that was within of the key tools that president trump used to actually move the needle and economic growth. we are seeing beginnings of a recovery. we have seen indications that consumer spending is doing better-than-expected we got numbers outlast week. the jobless numbers are getting better-than-expected so it is fair to believe that we will have a growth story come 2021 and certainly growth in the fourth quarter of this year. it's questionable what happens to this economy if in fact we do see tightening measures like raising taxes, like big government spending programs, you know, you talk about the green deal that joe biden has endorsed and that is going to cost $2 trillion at least.

that is certainly going to mean a lot different story in the energy space so i do agree you're seeing a very different approach depending on these candidates and after november 3 you'll see that impact markets and the economy for sure. i think one of the most important stories right now, guys, is this potential coverup on the part of the media, that they are hiding negative stories about president trump's opponent we're going to have an explosive show this morning because i've got senator ron johnson who sent a second letter this morning to blue star strategies which is the democrat s super pack, and he wants information in terms of why this information on these laptops of hunter biden is being hidden. we're going to have a lot of news on this coming up we'll have breaking news on what's on those laptops, who the fbi agent that served the subpoena for that laptop is, we'll talk all about that with senator johnson as well as congressman devon nunes and congressman
