for inviting us into your home tonight. that's it for this "special report," fair, balanced, and still unafraid. "fox news primetime" hosted by rachel duffy, you have five seconds extra. >> rachel: thank you, excited to start the show right now. welcome to "fox news primetime," i am rachel campos ducky, and today frozen. bringing the power grid to its knees. ice and snow with record low temperatures are literally freezing wind turbines responsible for the green energy supply. and as a result more than 4 million people are without electricity. that's more than hurricane flora, harvey, katrina, and sandy combined. it's terrifying, but to think that an active nature could

crippled the energy grid of a state like texas. but it is a scene that will see repeated in joe biden's america. his administration is all in on progressive climate agenda, that is mostly inspired by the person who said this. speak of the world is going to end in 12 years if we don't address climate change and your biggest issue is -- your biggest issue is how are we going to pay for it? >> rachel: if this weeks storm provided anything it is that green energy like wind power works great until they don't. it's one thing to push for energy innovation, but you can't do it at the expense of reliable energy that is both effective and affordable. but that's exactly what biden is doing, and he is going to put america's economy in a deep-freeze along the way. and in his first week in office joe biden killed the keystone pipeline and thousands of jobs attached to it.

then we watched his cronies who are elitist cow out of coworker americans to find new jobs, remember this? >> for those workers somebody else will get a job? >> the answer is that we are eager to see those workers being employed in good paying union jobs even if they might be different ones. >> workers have been set a false narrative, tough surprise for the last few years? they have been fed the notion that somehow dealing with climate is coming at their expense. no, it's not. >> rachel: imagine donald trump saying that. oh, that's right, you can't, because he was bullish on america constantly saying things like this. >> the number one energy superpower anywhere in the world, looking to be independent as long as i am president, we will never let anyone put

america energy out of business which is what they would like to do. we will defend your jobs. >> rachel: president trump's greatest legacy was his pro-worker agenda. he cut regulations so that people could work and not depend on handouts. for the first time in modern history, america became energy independent, and it made us proud. now as a result energy got cheaper, unemployment reached record lows and for the first time in a long time america felt like it was open for business. and it was scary china and russia, but it is not just to joe biden is willing to sacrifice for energy independence for a carbon neutral pipe dream, this is what bill gates had to say this weekend. >> our daily life has to change. >> it can seem overwhelming. but you are optimistic? >> yes, there are days where it looks very foreign. if people think it is easy, they are wrong. if people think it is impossible, they are wrong.

>> it's possible? >> it's possible, but it will be the most amazing thing mankind has ever done. >> rachel: let me ask you a question, does this look amazing? here's the thing, it is easy for someone like bill gates to get excited about fundamentally changing the lives of every american, after all, he is rich. he is probably bored, and let's be honest, there aren't too many things that can move the needle for a guy worth $130 billion, so what is left to do besides spending your time and incidental wealth chasing windmills like don quixote, just scaring women indoor third world countries and making yogurt out of my great. he does not care if you lose your job or power in your house when you have more money than god, power and influence are the only things left that matter. joining me now is the governor of south dakota, kristi noem,

thank you for joining us, welcome! >> oh, thank you, rachel, i sure appreciate you having me on your show. >> rachel: absolutely, these blackouts we are seeing are reminiscent of what we saw in the former soviet union, cuba, and california last summer, is this what we can expect in a joe biden america that is pushing all these green energy policies? >> listen, i have always been a supporter of diversified energy. i think it is critically important that we prioritize all forms of energy. biden has gone after coal and oil and gas and i think that is dangerous. we should be supporting energy that is generated here in the united states so we rely on our own sources, but we don't put all of our eggs in one basket. we make sure it is diversified so we don't have the situation that we have in so many states, but it is not consistent and that's why you are going to need other forms of electricity to support the system in the grid

so that families can keep their houses warm. >> rachel: absolutely, tell me really quickly, we are in the middle of this pandemic, the keystone pipeline is one of the first things that joe biden got rid of, so how is it affecting your state? and why would you do that in the middle of a pandemic when you don't have a replacement job? >> it is interesting, because the pipeline was being built through the state of south dakota where they had built a couple let me a couple of pumping stations and ready to be installed and then when he pulled the permits everything just stopped, and told her stories in recent days to devastation and their incomes and businesses. and they had expanded getting ready for the workers that were going to be there next several years building the pipeline and excited about the opportunity is to get the property taxes in the us local small schools from the pipeline, it was always going to be a source of revenue that

would help them keep their roads fixed and commerce going and make sure that their teachers could be well paid and a lot of these remote areas where economic development is challenging. and overnight their whole plan for the future was just gone. and for a lot of families in the state of safe dakota it was devastating. i felt all sides of it as well. it was a critical piece of infrastructure that gave us energy in this country and made sure that we were going to be able to deliver it efficiently and safely and protect the environment. this pipeline was safer for the environment and how we are moving the oil today. it was safer for people and how we are moving it today by rail and truck line and it was going to bring down the cost of gas and oil in this country which is so important to both hardworking families that try to pay their bills every month. >> so governor, you are not just a politician or a governor, you are also a rancher. we had that interview with

bill gates earlier and he says that we need to stop feeding beef. i want you to see the clip and come back on the other side with that. >> this company needs to find using fungi and then turns them into sausage and yogurt, it's pretty amazing. >> do you mean like mushroom? or microbes? >> it's a microbe. >> how can the micro burgers go over in south dakota? >> well, i mean, i like mushrooms, but i like my beef too. the cattle industry is incredibly important to our state of course. but here's the situation is that he talks a lot about carbon emissions out of cattle, but he does not take into account the fact that carbon emissions in the inefficiencies in general and how expensive that food would be for the average everyday family. so beef and protein is

incredibly important. it's also important that a family can go to the grocery store and afford the food that they need to put on their table to take care of their kids. and that's the balance that i don't think bill gates understands is that for me food policies in national security policy is important that we grow our own food in this country so that another country does not control us and important that it is diversified so that we don't have a shortage in one area and it becomes too expensive for families to actually go to the store and put it on the table. >> rachel: i want to talk to you about the future of the g.o.p., where you have the mitch mcconnell, liz cheney part of the party and we need to forget tromp, move on, change the republican party, but i live not very far from where you live and that certainly not what i'm hearing out there. so tell me what you think. >> i think what people want is a republican party that follows through on what they are going to do.

if that actually forward and enacts the policy is that we say we believe in. we talked for years about doing health care reform, repealing obamacare and we have not done it. we talk about doing immigration reform and making sure that we are welcoming people legally into the country and we have not done it. so that's what i think the last several years should teach republicans is that we are tired of politicians and people that stand up and give speeches and never take action, that's what the last administration did and they took action and people realize that they liked that and the benefits of people who actually were public servants. >> i told people i was going to have you on the show today and a lot of people want to know if you are going to run for president. >> i am running for reelection to be governor of south dakota. i will be up for reelection in 2022, and i am hoping the people of the state will trust me again to lead the state for another four years. it is a special place. >> i want to talk to you really

quick about a lot of people out there are frustrated with the government, that's how you got into government, can you quickly tell us why you got into government and why that personal tragedy really got you to get moving in there? >> yes, what happened was i was going to college and my dad was killed in an accident, he was 49 years old at the time actually the same age that i am now and was killed and i came home and took over the family businesses, but within weeks we were notified that we owed death taxes and the federal government a bunch of money because we had a tragedy in our family. so it made me mad. i tell people all the time that i just decided i was going to start showing up at meetings. i had been raised by that he was a cowboy who just said, complain about things, you fix them. and i realized i needed to start showing up and if i wanted different laws and policies that i needed to be there and be a businessperson, a mom, someone

who actually gave my perspective. if there is one thing i have learned as i have been in public office it is that you get better bills and laws and policies when you have a diversity of opinion around the table. when you have men, women, people of different backgrounds and cultures having the discussion in the debate, you will end up with a better law that serves people much better into the future, so my hope is that more women will run, that more average people at home that are running businesses will sit at the table and show up at that meeting and contribute, because that's how we fix what is wrong with this country. >> rachel: we need people to know what it is like to run a family and have kids and pay bills running for office. it is such a pleasure to have you on today. i want to thank you so much. and i am sure that you are inspiring so many people who are watching right now. thank you. >> thank you, rachel. >> rachel: coming up president biden's revealing new integration registration on capitol hill this week how he is

>> rachel: a desolate scene along the u.s. southern border just days after the white house announced it was the cup all funding for president trump's border wall, construction has come to a complete halt. the machines are turned off and the workers have gone home and all the progress we have made over the past four years has been eradicated. for the time being, we are left with this. miles and miles of walls littering the desert landscape. anyone could walk around it. the white house does not seem concerned about this.

priority this week appears to be a path to citizenship for up to 11 million people already living in the country illegally. think about that. american citizens are suffering. we are in the middle of a pandemic, and many cannot find jobs and the focus of this administration this week is to bring in more democratic voters who by the way will also need to find jobs. joining me now, two reporters who have been covering the scene. holy over osama and sara carter, fox news contributor. i'm just going to start with you because you are just down at the border, tell me what you have been seeing. i know that you have been talking to people not just looking at things, tell me what is going on. >> basically as you mentioned before, it has kind of come to a halt in terms of the border wall construction and some of the policies. at the administration remaining a mexico policy who was pretty instrumental and not overflowing our migrant facilities when

people were apprehended. so really it is just kind of a shock because obviously the past four years have been focused on not trying to let people cross illegally and stemming the flow that has come around these few recent years, so it is just kind of shocking to see half built walls and miles that would have been constructed if president trump got a second term. so really it is just a wait and see you to see what exactly is going to happen over the next four years. >> rachel: i know that you spoke to some of the construction workers that where they are, what did they tell you? >> they were upset and disheartened that the work that they were doing was all of a sudden put to a stop in the area that i have been in california they had about two months left of work and were putting in new sections of the wall where no barriers were lifted. and as they were building people were still coming through that area. once they did put the wall and obviously the traffic decreased. the problem is about a half a

mile down from that section there was open space. so now they are worried that people are just going to start going crossing down there. >> rachel: we are in the middle of a pandemic in so many people have lost jobs, why do you think that to the biden administration would choose integration in the middle of all of this as their first priority right out of the gate? >> i think that's a really great question that a lot of people have been asking. i spoke with tom homan who was former head of immigration and customs and that has been one of his biggest questions along with people in border patrol, the use policy is all they do is embolden the drug cartels and the human traffickers and they are inhumane, not only to americans, rachel, but to the migrants in the undocumented and illegals that are being lied to and political footballs in this game. the u.s. policy itself is inhumane, when you think about

it, when biden makes a policy statement that is so conflicting like we will see how to legalize the 11 million that have arrived here illegally, which is closer to 20 million which i believe it's closer to 20 million, we will take the 25,000 that are still in mexico and find a way to bring them into the united states, what do you think the message is across the border? and the drug cartel takes advantage of this. and julio is right, they balloon. they keep the border patrol busy at one end and breaking drugs in the other end and keep them busy by pumping the migrants into the united states. the people who have already been abused coming into the u.s. >> rachel: though the children in the human trafficking is not spoken about. it is such a great point. you are both in washington, d.c., correct? where do you think the wall is more needed? around the u.s. capitol or at the southern border? >> well, i covered the january 6th riots and it was

terrible and really showed that the leadership, federal and the capitol police really failed. it's a little too late at that point, and there's really no argument to continue having that level of security if there is no active threat. so the national guardsmen, i mean, all of the shenanigans that they have had to endure during this kind of deployment that they have been on, and so i think it is time for them to go home unless there is a serious active threat. >> rachel: maybe we should just move them to the southern border. really appreciate you joining us tonight. up next, hogan gidley is fired up as president trump's deputy white house secretary. he says the media is covering the biden white house a lot differently than president trump. no surprise they are, especially when it comes to vice president kamala harris. stay with us.

>> rachel: dr. fauci who has been telling us to follow the science for the past year is receiving an award for it. trace gallagher is here with the details. >> it is called the dan david prize after the israeli polenta press. dr. anthony fauci is being honored for his career in public health and what the prize committee calls speaking truth to power. at the covid-19 pandemic unraveled, dr. fauci leveraged his considerable communication skills to advance people gripped by fear and anxiety and worked relentlessly to inform individuals in the united states and elsewhere about the public health measures essential for maintaining the pandemic spread. in clashed with president trump on the pandemic and when joe biden was nominated, calling it "liberating," but also

important to note that to dr. fauci made his mistakes and the contradictions. against president trump's ban on flights from china earlier in the pandemic that he acknowledge saved countless lives. and said that the virus was low risk and that masks were not needed and that asymptomatic transmission does not drive outbreaks of the infection. those all turned out to be inaccurate, and when it was announced some on social media took dr. fauci to task, did found she courageously defend science when he flipped on masks because they were popular with his fan base, or when he changed the threshold based on polling or just because he helped trump lose the election. it should be noted dr. fauci has also been praised for his groundbreaking and life-saving work in the fight against and hiv. >> rachel: thanks, trace. four years, big media outlets are constantly fact-checking

trump administration's on every little thing that they have said, but this week those same outlets were awfully quiet over the weekend. when vice president kamala harris said this. >> there was no national strategy or plan for vaccinations. in many ways we are starting from scratch. >> rachel: the vice president who did not realize that fauci had said the complete opposite just weeks ago. >> we are certainly not starting from scratch, because there is activity going on in the distribution. >> rachel: axios who interviewed kamala later called her out on her lie, but then basically deleted it. i guess it just did not fit the narrative. so here is mogen gidley, and it must make you crazy to think that just a few months, the media rules have changed for covering an administration?

>> it's so infuriating, what kamala harris said is a flat out try to the limit and ally, everybody, the median knew it, you had pointed to the comments that they were not starting from scratch. i was in those meetings with dr. fauci. and when the biden administration takes over they say we will set a goal of 100 million doses in 100 days. you're welcome, we did that, because the time that you took over by that moment, we are already giving more than 1 million vaccines per day, the median knew it and let kamala harris lie about it and joe biden lie about it since. but even worse than that and more egregious is that it is just an affront, a slap in the face to all of those front line health care workers, all of the members of the military who are charged with distributing this vaccine and the companies that came together from the career

employees and operation work speed that distributed the vaccine for a never before seen virus in record-setting time faster than any time in our country in the world's history. kamala harris had nothing to do with it, but the media let her take credit for it. it really is disgusting to watch. >> rachel: take a look at this. i saw this and i could not believe it. this is politico, biden brings pda back to the white house. historians and relationship experts believe the first couples romantic gestures are not just genuine, they are restorative. what do you >> this? they have even done stories on his bedtime schedule, which i don't think helps with the sleepy joe thing, but what do you make of this and how much longer can the american people

take this? >> they are going to take it for the next four years because that is the plan that the media has in place and they will cover for the administration with the thing that we just talked about before regarding the vaccine, i am so glad i know what flavor of ice cream joe biden likes and i'm so glad that i know the names of his dog and that he throws a log on the fire every once a while in the oval office and that he and jill love each other. i'm so excited about that. what is he going to do for the american people? what is he going to do to reopen schools? those are the main issues the american people care about, but the phony mainstream media that refused to give anybody in the trump administration a break regardless of the fact that every single policy donald trump put in place improve the lives of all americans regardless of race, religion, color, or creed, joe biden has done serious damage to the american people in the first several weeks in office, and we out here in the

country, we are feeling it. and i don't think that any coverage the media gives the biden administration is going to pass the smell test of so many americans across the country who are suffering right now. >> rachel: no one is stupid, we can see the difference. hogan, so great having you here today. thank you for joining us. >> thanks very much, rachel. >> rachel: a stunning admission from chicago's teachers union, how they admit the standoff as a city over reopening schools has nothing to do with covid-19, but rather it is all about the money. ♪ ♪ s like martin. an air force veteran made of doing what's right, not what's easy. so when a hailstorm hit, usaa reached out before he could even inspect the damage. that's how you do it right. usaa insurance is made just the way martin's family needs it with hassle-free claims, he got paid before his neighbor even got started. because doing right by our members, that's what's right.

>> rachel: as if being a teacher was not tough enough in the already troubled state of illinois, state legislators are considering culturally irresponsible teacher standards that would make them complete mandatory woke training to understand that systems in the society create and reinforce inequities and curate the curriculum to include a represent in spectrum of

identities and self reflect and gain a deeper understanding of how students life experiences affected perspective. and if that is not enough, the training would encourage teachers to try light activism and work through the teaching. joining me now, a parent of three students in chicago, welcome to the show, you have so many problems with kids and education in chicago, is this training the last thing they need to be focusing on? >> rachel, thanks for having me. the short answer is to set the table to give you a little perspective, here in illinois two years ago, the illinois lawmakers who got rid of abolished what was called the basic skills test for teachers. so they abolished it because frankly too many incoming teachers were feeling it.

so we abolish the basic skills test for teachers and we are about to adopt, i had to write it down to call its culturally responsible teacher and leading standards, responsive teaching living standards. the short answer is no, i have the standards here in front of me as they span dozens of pages and what is not in here though the words in here often are systems of inequity, dominant culture, needs for social advocacy, those words are littered throughout here. you will not find the word mass anywhere? >> rachel: it is totally outrageous, these schools in this urban states are indoctrination machines, but how are the kids doing during the pandemic? i know that they are still virtual, right? >> here in chicago it is a

little bit of a misnomer, there is no return date set to despite what all the national media has said about the tough mary taking on the tough union, no date set for the return of high school students. mack, the grammar school students, my youngest is set to return march 8th. so as far as that goes they are still not back in school and when they return even the grammar schools will be returning for two days a week. as for these new standards you should know at best it falls under the heading of the road to is paved with good intentions. and perhaps hypocrisy. i will give you one example to show you the difference between the old standard in the new standard. the old standard and the competent teacher "understands major concepts, assumptions, debates principles and theories that are central to the discipline in which licensure is sought seems pretty reasonable.

we like our teachers who teach science to know science. the new standard is instead the competent teacher understands the spectrum of student diversity, race and ethnicity, socioeconomic status, special education, gifted english language learners, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity and the asset that students bring across the curriculum. so given that less than one-third of the students in the state need proficiency in math and english i would think that those would be the main priorities that we will be raising those standards instead of abolishing them for teachers, but instead we abolish those and are now introducing these new culturally sensitive standards? >> rachel: it is obscene. i can feel the frustration in your voice and i think there are millions of parents also who also feel that. so i hope that someone in the biden administration and the city of chicago is listening.

sometimes we don't hear the real story as you mention, a lot of people think that chicago schools are open and high school students might be not going to school this year. we are praying that our kids can get back to school. >> thank you for having me. i appreciate it. >> rachel: here is christopher russo, the director of the discovery institute center of youth and poverty. you have done so much on this topic of critical race theory and identity politics and how it is all indoctrinating our kids and we will start with this. a lot of people think it is just happening in chicago, but you have been writing about how it is happening in middle america, i am a mom and can attest to that. but tell me what you have been seeing. >> i have seen that it has become the default ideology of the public education system. i recently reported on first-graders being forced to deconstruct their and racial identity is on fifth graders

being forced celebrate black communism and a visit of black power rally and where a principal sent an email to say that teachers should become white traders and advocate for a full white abolition. it's not only a moral panic but now being disseminated through the institutions and parents across the country should be on guard. >> rachel: part of why you like having you on the show is sometimes the viewers and parents that are home here this stuff and feel and helpless, i have been apparent in that situation and you offer advice to parents of what they can actually do to combat this at the local level. so give me what you think is your best advice for parents when you see this kind of curriculum coming into their school. >> the first thing is to have the courage to speak out. i think that so many parents are afraid of being smeared as a white supremacist or racist or a

bigot, they don't have the vocabulary to speak out. but they are two things you need to do is that courage element, but second you have to get organized. it's very easy to dismiss a single parent, but if you can get five, six, ten families to ban together and push back, you can be successful. i reported on a number of success stories and i think that that is the way forward. >> rachel: i have done that too, you going by yourself and they make you feel like you are crazy, but you bring in eight parents, you can all be crazy. and leak it to the press. if the local press won't take it, leak it to the conservative radio stations, but get it out there, because a lot of this is snuck in. >> that's exactly right, this is a radical ideology that is supported by a very small portion of the population. it is a kind of elite institution driven revolution against middle-class people, against middle america and people of all different racial backgrounds. you have to know that the majority of the country is on

your side. it is the right thing to push back against this and parents should have the courage and conviction to push back against those schools that fail to teach the basics and are turning education into activism. >> rachel: marxist activism, if you have not been to his website, go there and he has all kinds of articles and education, and parents need to be empowered to fight back. so thank you so much, chris, so happy to have you on the show today. >> thank you. >> rachel: coming up next, a new military task force formed to combat discrimination. how have service makers taken and inclusivity pledge to introduce effects into personal biases. a stay tuned next. ♪ ♪ to manage type 2 diabetes and heart disease... but could your medication do more to lower your heart risk?

so much about patriot to -- patriotism, hard work, it is a democracy where it is based on performance, not race, connection, or social status. it is also incredibly diverse with very high levels of interracial marriage, even at a time when it was not as common in the general u.s. population. when you live on a base, especially overseas, you are not focused on your differences, instead you are acutely aware of the most important thing you have in common, being an american. but that's changing fast. the trump administration tried to slow down the divisive and un-american trends of identity politics and critical race theory that the obama administration injected into the military. with the new biden administration, the social engineers in the racial hucksters are wasting no time. they appear to be plowing

forward with a new initiative that would reshape the priorities of the u.s. navy, assembling a task force that asks each member to "invest the time, attention, and empathy required to analyze and evaluate needy white issues released to racism, sexism, able as i'm, and other structural interpersonal biases." as well as "advocate and acknowledge for all experiences in intersectional identities of every sailor and navy." here cohost of "fox & friends weekend." and my getting this right here? >> you are getting it right, rachel, and your experience of the military is correct in the way that it used to be. it is absolutely the meritocracy. it's a military that i want to believe i entered into. the obama administration took a social justice view of the pentagon trying to engineer the way that we have the rest of society promoting a lot of generals who are more than happy

to do that. they had the pause for four years under trump and here we are under joe biden accelerating these ideas. and when you read the closed force navy pledge it uses the word able is that i had to look up. a means discrimination in favor of able-bodied people. i'm sorry, last time i checked i once able-bodied people manning my ships. as we command the cds protect trade, win wars, project power, it is absolute lunacy. if i wanted to indoctrinate my kids, i would just send them to harvard or your rank and file university anywhere, not the military to get the same thing. i guess they would not have the depth, but that's about it. and the deeper point, rachel, that you got to was that what we have done is erase the special quality of the military which is we erase your differences. you are not black, white, rich, poor, gay, straight, you are green if you are in the army or

red, white, and blue across the forest and you are equal in the eyes of fighting for your country that you love. they are dissecting that right now and it is very dangerous. >> rachel: and such dangerous times as we have china and russia, all of these existential threats, how is this affecting the readiness of our military? what is going on? >> if you go deeper into this thing the navy has released, they are bread keyed every initiative. you run it against the enemy. and complications how you would navigate it. and bending over ourselves to the intersectionality to show aircraft carriers are the effective tool of the 21st century in the world of hypersonic missiles? that's what we should be focused on what the sailors to keep them safe and alive if there was a great power conflict. and the steelers know it. they want the best training, they want the best equipment, they want their country behind them and a commander in chief that will have their backs and they need that in donald trump.

if you have a social experiment and you are spending more time making sure that you are woke and are checking boxes, you know it when you are training. i've seen it in the inventory in the military, when you are training and put down let down range, you know that you are an effective fighting force that has nothing to do with this. fighting and winning wars has nothing to do with what they are doing right here. >> rachel: you talk to so many soldiers out there. >> how can it not affect morale negatively? of course it is. they are looking around and saying, it was donald trump that unleashed me to go kill and crush isis. it was barack obama who put rules of engagement on me that limited my ability. i had to fight politically correct wars and issuing the same thing coming with joe biden and i hate to ask myself this question, when i want to enlist my son in today's military? it is an open question that i always wanted him to serve and it is a scary reality. i wish i was not too that way, but it should be about winning wars, and right now it is not, rachel. >> and i knew that i could bring

you on and you would tell me exactly what i -- you thought, and i would love it. it's because you are doing a great job, rachel. >> rachel: thank you for watching, i am rachel campos-duffy and i will be back tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m. tucker carlson is up next. ♪ ♪ good evening. welcome to tucker carlson. tonight, we spend a lot of time in the show night after night trying to explain what's happening to our country. it's depressing a lot of the time because the answer is always the same. america is not rotten. it's a great place. the people that run it are rotten. you have been betrayed by the people that lead you. that's why things are so volatile. you are looking at a crisis of our institutions. they are corrupt, some collapsing. we say that a lot because it is true. we should be more precise. not all of our institutions are the same. some are bad, some are awful. looming above the rest is the
