the world's first six-function multipro tailgate. available on the gmc sierra. >> the justice department has opened a civil investigation to determine whether the minneapolis police department engages in a pattern of practice of unconstitutional or unlawful policing. the challenges we face are deeply woven into our history. >> attorney general mary garland announcing a crackdown on costs as derek chauvin is convicted of murdering george lloyd. jillian: giano caldwell joins us with reactions and a new investigation into the minneapolis police department. thanks for being here. let's go ahead and pull up what they would be reviewing here which includes policies, training, use of force, systems

of accountability, determine whether other mechanisms are needed for lawful policing. i'm not a police officer, don't know what it is like to have something like this at the forefront but from an outsider's perspective i look at this and say wise this a bad thing. on the one hand, the way they are policing, it does prove the point chauvin was a bad apple as we know but if it does find flaws it leads to room for improvement? >> absolutely agree. is someone who was a spokesperson for large national police organizations these things happen regularly especially with george lloyd. we saw statue created by congress in 1991 after rodney king which allowed for the examination of patterns practices. we see this in baltimore, chicago, ferguson. especially in a situation like this where there have been

complaints against the minneapolis police department and any corrections done by news organizations, something that should be done, creating peace within the community, ensuring something like george lloyd never occurs again. jillian: it could be beneficial where a lot of people say cops need better training but we need more funding so you could have an outcome that ends of making the police for stronger. >> brings us back to what senator scott said. everyone was about police reform but the democrats who chose to use it as a wedge issue, this should be a nonpartisan issue, leave politics out of it. text messaging with senator scott's chief of staff yesterday, they tell me they want to push more police reform and this is something democrats and republicans should come together on. it should be bipartisan.

joe manchin talks about things being bipartisan and not just over reach efforts without all parties being old and most people would agree it should not be a partisan issue by no measure. we need to get something done and police need additional training to prevent situations like george lloyd from ever happening again. todd: cops may soon need permission to chase a suspect on foot. i too am not a cop but i'm trying to figure out how this would work in situations where you make a split-second decision. to me this is the equivalent of a better up at bat having to call his manager to decide if he should swing or not swing at the pitch while the pitch is in the air. this makes no sense. >> i'm not a sports guy but it seems like one of the most ridiculous things i have heard in a while, it is a very

dangerous city. a police officer put their lives in jeopardy when they go on these calls especially in particular neighborhoods where life-and-death is a possibility within the split-second you mentioned. to say i need to stop pursuing a suspect and call my boss, and then he calls me back and say continue to pursue, stop one minute, let me call my boss and see what he says. it is insane. we have to take politics out of policing. there is no room for it. police should be able to do their job unencumbered by those who want to handicap them and that is usually the politician. mayor lori lightfoot, provide better training for officers instead of bowing to the activists. we want everyone to be safe. police should not be violating

police procedure and creating misconduct situations but you have to use common sense and this is the common sense to say you should call your supervisor before pursuing a suspect. on the other hand there are times police officers called into their supervisors to see if they should continue to pursue a suspect if they are on a car chase in dangerous areas where may be the suspect hit someone could hit someone. but they will continue to pursue the suspect, until the police say stop pursuing. that is a different set of circumstances. when you are on a foot chase. >> i would imagine when you're on a foot chase like that having even if you are running to make a call taking away your distraction or focus on the job. >> not to mention putting your self in the line of danger.

todd: what do everyday american think of this, particularly those who have lost jobs in the energy sector? we escalate off keystone pipeline worker and father of 3, lynn allen. you heard what she thinks of your industry. what do you want to say to her? >> i would like to tell her i wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth. i guarantee you right now this is hard on everybody. climate change ain't nothing but a joke. only gas is going to be in the driver of the world and these people keep going back making excuses about racial and all that climate get warmer, this is really a joke, this administration need to look at the american people, how many is

laid off, out of the money the american families are losing, their own families, it is bad, it is sad. >> you were promised to clean energy job. you have a clean energy job yet? >> know. only thing i heard about clean energy is solar panels and two days ago, lots of solar panels, the other is electric and burn it down two nights ago simply because solar panels started a fire. i don't care about the solar panels and wind generation the to go to work.

electric and solar will not be the main pusher in the world. oil and gas is. why does america have to suffer and all of these other countries, russia or china or ukraine or africa. why are they not the leaders in all of this so-called climate change? every time we do all of the climate change why is the american people always hurting? todd: one of the themes is the pledge to cut emissions in half by 2030 but to your point if china and india don't follow suit what good is the work that we do? we appreciate your insight on letting us know how this affects real people on the ground trying to make a living and trying to survive in today's society. >> god bless america.

something. >> how far are we from the mexican border? >> 70 or 80 miles, well within the united states border. what they will do is come walking through the desert and the vehicle, clear to pick them up. we have seen a tremendous spike since january. this is all them. this is fresh too. i come out here often. they wear these carpet shoes to mask the sound and we can't track them in the sand and it is like they have a border crossing, this is your typical backpack, standard issue backpack, sleeping bag, jugs, they can carry more value between sentinel pills and

want to spend to provide for pre-k and community colleges pay for it and i don't know how we pay for this without raising taxes on hard-working americans. i go back to jfk's comments, ask not what your country can do for you but you can do for your country, people want to earn their success in the united states. >> is there a better way to support america's families? >> i think we have had tremendous challenges. i talk to single moms and single-parent every day. with kids being out of school that is the greatest challenge we have right now in one of the worst things we could be doing because our children are safe in school but many parents stop working to take care of their kids because they are educated at home. that is the first thing we can do. the second thing to help the american people is to stop incentivizing unemployment.

we have folks that want to get back to work, but the federal government with the additional unemployment checks coming out the stimulus payments, many folks won't go back to work so these are things that we should be doing to help the american people, the best way forward. >> the president accepted nancy pelosi's invitation to deliver his first joint session of congress, that would be april 28th, you take issue with the timing of this. >> he will be playing to an empty room. under covid 19 things are different, but the state of the union address when congress isn't going to be there, not scheduled to be there, great disservice to the american people. we have an opportunity at the beginning of the year coming out of a crisis to lead during the crisis.

♪ jillian: two private new york city schools receiving backlash from parents and teachers over woke anti-racist curriculum. todd: parents say the indoctrination of our kids should be concerned about. here to react is new york columnist karol markowicz. great to see you as always. what's your warning to somebody watching us, let's say, in south

carolina. who is saying why should i care about some rich new york city school. >> i would say that it's coming. it's coming to public schools all across the country, if it hasn't already. this curriculum is being spread far and wide. it's becoming the language of the land and just this week the biden administration tied some funding to fishing specifically race-based curriculum. if you are sitting in a public school town in south carolina and not worried about it because it's a private school issue in new york city, it's not. and the private school parents in new york have a much easier time than dealing with this. they will move their kids to a different private school who promise misses not to be woke where public school kids don't have that option. jillian: i heard the argument last night which was if you are inserting these ideas that you think you should be inserting into kids' minds at a young page without even their parents buyer the way to be the ones to tack to them about this, aren't you then going backwards in time instead of going forward where

you are teaching kids to look beyond race? >> yeah. well, it's pretty hilarious that they are teaching white kids to think a lot about their white race. i thought that was a problem. but, yeah. it's absolutely insane especially young age to omake everything about race is to really darken the world and limit what they are thinking of their peers. it's a real hard situation. todd: rebuttal from the brearley school, quote: we express our unequivocal support four our black asian indigenous multiracial and multilat students, many students of colors especially those identified as black felt that the letter questioned their belonging in the brearley community their belonging and existence are unquestionable. to that i say what did that letter have anything to do with questioning who belonged? >> right. i didn't get that from that letter whatsoever. i think that's a completely made up idea.

and, you know, again, it's very easy to throw this kind of thing back at the letter writer and say oh, your letter was racist and that really sends a message to other parents saying don't speak up because we are going to call you a racist, too. that's obviously the worst thing you can be called. jillian: you know it, seems like similar to the argument when we were dealing with and still are, by the way, dealing with a lot of schools that aren't still open with in person learning with covid. you have parents fighters for their kids. that seems that's yet again the situation where the parent should be the ones having these conversations with their kids. yet, they are not being the ones to do that. >> yeah. but i would say it is very difficult and the letter writer did take a giant chance because, again, you can be ostracized from the community that you know. you can be name-called. you can be -- your kids can lose some of their friends. i mean, all of that is risky. but, if we all speak up, then maybe it becomes less risky. that's where we should be heading with this. it should be power in numbers because this curriculum is in

insane. most americans know it poll after poll shows nobody wants it. i think if we join together, it will be a good situation. jillian: karol markowicz thank you for your time. todd: with that "fox & friends" starts right now. have a great one, everybody. ♪ ♪ [shouting] >> protesters in columbus, ohio, taking to the streets second night in the row following the deadly police shooting of a teen girl. >> that girl had a knife in her hand and she was getting ready to stab another black girl in the face. >> what was the officer supposed to do? >> lebron james in now delete tweet put up a picture of the officer saying, quote you're next." >> making things worse in the country instead of better. >> make garland announced a sweeping investigation into the justice department. >> what maker garland did today was a dog
