[applause] >> on behalf of fast is a, spacex team, welcome you back to planet earth. jedediah: the astronauts splashing down along florida's gulf coast after arriving on a spacex capsule, making it nasa's

first nighttime water landing since 196, marking the end of a successful mission led by a private company. pete: the crew spent six months own board of the international space station. they are on their way to unite with family. three americans, one japanese astronaut. in that clip, it said thanks for flying spacex. for those rolled enrolled in the frequent-flyer program, you earned 68 million miles. wonderful for them. great to see their family. wonderful success in space for the united states of america, for elon musk and spacex. will: 1968 since we saw a capsule splash down. we become visuals of space shuttles touching down on runaway. parachutes, splash landing in the ocean. jedediah: it is very cool. try to talk to some of them.

it is so hard to relate to but so fascinating to many of us. i would love to hear more from them. i'm sure they have plenty of great stories to tell their families. pete: they sure will. that ship was crowded, there were 11, unless they found different way off the ship. welcome to "fox & friends this sunday morning, may 2nd, we're grateful you're here. speaking of back to the future, will you mentioned it. kamala harris put out a tweet that feels a little bit like "back to the future." first of all here is the tweet, as i said before in america when we shoot for the moon we plant our flag on it. i'm honored to lead our national space council. it is like i said before, god bless america. okay, got it. anybody can say that and we're glad you did. she is leading the national space council t was disbanded

for a number of years until donald trump reinstated it in 2017. vice president historically has been in charge of it. even kamala harris is willing to serve on the space council, that is was good move by the trump administration to revive it. we've seen revival as we watched on television screens. i would like go further than the moon. isn't it back to the future? can't we go back to mars as the president talked about. will, as we talk about this tweet, can you get any away from the border than space. will: that was the further i thought you were leading two. kamala harrisries is doing a bang-up job why not add to more from her plate. literally as as far as away from the southern border of the united states as possible, space. we see kamala harris not only going towards the problem of our

southern border, running as far as away as you can get. this as the situation on the border continues to deteriorate. here is another tweet from the past date. between patrol sector matthew hudak, border patrol, five gang members, seven days. they arrested five gang members in last week, two ms-13 and two 18th street gang members, attempted to esay arrest exploiting influx of migrants attempting to enter or country. jedediah: that is the concern. role of cartels in our country. i have no problem with kamala harris taking a role in the space initiative, that is fine. but if she will have a simultaneously role on the border we need clarity what she is doing there. we need clarity on the root causes. if you're looking into the root causes why you haven't been down to the border what that actually means tangibly when people are

incentivized to come across. they're terrified to acknowledge what is happening right now, that the cartels are infiltrating this crisis at the border. lara logan weighed in on that and how the biden administration is not stopping these cartels from flooding our borderss take a listen. >> the strategy open the border let people come in, do what they want, make as much money as they want, pour drugs into the country. use children they're bringing across the border for whatever reason they want. if you ask the cartel leaders that is what they tell you. i spoke to one just recently and i asked them about the unaccompanied minors coming across the border. some will sell drugs, do ordinary jobs and do things people don't want to imagine. like what? child porn? yes. child prostitution? yes. child snuff videos? yes. biden administration know what you and i are talking about. none of this is secret.

pete: sheer exploitation. lara logan lays it out as she always does. we don't have, kamala harris on the border, we don't have a tweet like i'm honored to lead our national space council. there is no recognition this is her responsibility. she stiff arms. i'm dealing with the northern triangle countries. i'm not in charge of the border. i only go to central america to talk about root causes when people flow in. they want to look us in the why, new stats this morning, don't worry about it, we have it contained because there are less people at the border. that is a sham. they're moving people in buses and planes across the country, unaccompanied minors, so they're not on the border. that is not solving inflow of people. that is managing the outflow. as she laid out it is exploitation. these cartels are using people and drugs to run a business and they don't care about the souls of these kids one bit.

knows numbers that we showed from that sector in laredo, that those are the ones that are caught. we have no idea how many are not caught. these numbers are exponentially higher than we report on the program. will: in the united states, past year has moved political debate from theory into consequences. governor nance, played on gubernatorial stage, we've seen policies how it affected businesses and the health of residents across the count i interest. new york to florida, texas to california. that caused in california, shutdowns do not work while coronavirus numbers vice. that led to recall effort for california gavin newsom is waving his hand at that effort. he is waving his hand. waving in his response to the covid-19 pandemic and the shutdowns. saying the following when it comes to the recall effort h effort in california. national republicans, extreme right-wingers, they're not sitting back, throwing

everything they can at the recall power grab, all in hopes, hopes of rolling back the important progress we made together. we can't let them win. you see, pete, see jedediah, what is going on the ignore the effect of my policies literally on the population of my state, as my state moves out of my own borders, out of my control. as my state vacates to texas, this is all some big power grab by right-wingers. wave your hand at the real world implications of your policies. it is just for the crazies. they don't like it. jedediah: it is wrong. what he is saying is factually wrong. i love california. one of my favorite states. a lot of my friends, businesses in new york, when there was a new york lockdown they moved their businesses to california, hoping it would be open. we saw what happened in california. many are democrats. many are supporting the recall effort of gavin newsom. this idea he is putting this out there, oh, these are extreme right-wingers who would have disliked me anyway, that is

really not true. this is mix of people on both sides of the aisle and the center, who watched their businesses die, had to relocate from california a state they love and seen ineffective leadership for long enough. pete: nice, your problem is not woke enough. that is effectively gavin newsom is saying. democrat convention virtually. kamala harris virtually attended and endorsed him. you need to place faith over fear, perseverance and optimism over hate and division. effectively all you people who don't support me enough, you don't get it, don't get how hog aggressive you can't be, if your life is not better that is on you, you need to embrace the signaling we're doing here in california. well, this recall effort created opportunity for opposition from republicans. a number of candidates announced they will be running, san diego

mayor kevin faulconer, businessman john cox and former olympian caitlyn jenner. one of those issues is transgender issues. "tmz" caught up with caitlyn jenner, transgender sports a policy debate going on across the country. here is kaitlin's take. >> hi, kaitlin there is legislation in various states to ban biological boys or trans playing girls sports in school. what is your opinion on that? >> this is a question of fairness. that is why i oppose biological boys who are trans competing in girls sports in school. it just isn't fair. we have to protect girl sports in school. >> if someone transitions identifies as a girl, isn't it delegitimatizing their identity? >> have a good day. will: someone would have former

olympic deal cath heat knows what it means to participate in sports at the highest level. this is not just important about the highest level. important for everyone to understand, states like connecticut, biological males first and second state records in track meets. that is in connecticut. that is happening in so many places. the truth of the matter, it is common sense. matter of fairness. good on caitlyn jenner not running away from a question, fear of cancellation, fear of retribution, mob justice, not towing the non-commonsensical and faxable point of view. good for kaitlin generaller. >> this is a fascinating debate. will, you're into sports. i'm sure you covered this extensively. i truly see both sides of this issue. i have sensitivity for both sides. i think caitlyn jenner has a fantastic perspective, she has personal experience from the perspective of an athlete

talking about this. i think it would serve people really well to listen to what she has to say. you saw, that "tmz" rushed in to try to have a gotcha moment there, but i think she will have more to say on this, if we have a real genuine conversation about this, hear all sides, i think her voice will be an integral part of that. katelyn will be on "hannity," talk about that. her gubernatorial run and what that will look like. she is a really interesting voice in the current times on a lot of issues. i'm certainly looking forward to it. will: absolutely. jedediah: we'll continue now with some headlines, beginning with a fox news alert. at least two people are wed and four wounded after a shooting new orleans french quarter a shooting near the french quarter in new orleans, yep. police have not identified a suspect or motive as of right now. two hours after a second shooting was reported with two injured. it is unclear if the incidents are related. this is a developing story and we will continue updates

looting, what do you make of it. >> i'm incredibly happy to see it. only about a year too late. it is great that they're actually finally holding people in james because over the last year you've seen people riot, burn down portland a year straight, get released back on to the streets the very next day to continue to riot. it has been incredible double standard when you think about the fbi, still tracking down people for trespassing from january 6th. i mean, i just wish we had the same resource as year ago when all of these riots were at their peak. pete: my goodness, a great point. i heard from multiple folks recently being tracked down for being on the capitol ground on january 6th, not even entering. we're talking about people burning down every night. been a catch-and-release program until now. effectively chasing the same ghosts around town. hopefully this has the kind of result it would have.

official, long-time space consultant douglas mckinnon is here to react. thank you, mr. mckinnon for being with us. nasa sort of retreats to some extent. why is maintaining our presence in space really the world's preeminent leader in space exploration so important for the united states? >> well, will, thanks for having me back on. i appreciate it. that was something president kennedy talked about way back in 1962, it was critically important the united states become and remain the preeminent space-faring nation and unfortunately we're morphing away from that. thank goodness for spacex and elon musk. without them would have no american human spaceflight program. guess what, nature does hate a vacuum, will. what is going on china is filling that vacuum dramatically. they intend to control everything from the surface of the earth, to the surface of the moon and if we're not in space, at least keeping up with them,

the united states will be in a tough position in terms of national security. will: explain that for me, why is it so important we maintain the, our position as leader as a space-faring country over china? why is that so important for our national security? >> will, right now as you and i are talking the chinese are targeting every single one of our satellites in orbit. no nation on earth more dependent on the satellites in orbit than the united states of america. who knows that better than anybody? china and russia. again if we're not up there to protect our assets the chinese understand that. ultimately they can start shutting off the satellites one at a time. you talk about finances. you talk about the military becomes blind. talk about gps. we'll be in a world of hurt. they also plan to colonize the moon. they launched the first segment of their brand new space station they will have up and running in two years. will: i have to ask you about this, mr. mckinnon. i joked on the show. i don't think it's a joke.

i find it absolutely fascinating. i want to read a quote from former senator utah, harry reid, he said this recently, i was told for decades that lockheed had some retrieved materials. i tried to get as i recall to get classified approval from the pentagon to look at the stuff. they did not approve that i don't know all the numbers what they were, all the classification was but they would no give that. that is lockheed having in their possession ufo fragments senator reed was trying to review, couldn't get ahold. what can you tell us about this? >> that is interesting. ultimately harry reid might have the last laugh on this. he has been talking about this for the last 20 plus years. a number of high level u.s. officials are starting to openly talk about it. right now allegedly right now the department of defense is going to release a report sometime in june, talking about it, what they know. as someone who worked in the pent gone for three years with

those guys, i would be surprised if they release too much information. they will want to play it close to the vest. we're getting in dribs, drabs a little more information on that. harry reid is on the right path. will: coming out in dribs and drabs with videos showing on the screen. statements like this from harry reid, at the very least this topic is moving from one of the realm of conspiracy to the realm of we need to know exactly what is going on here. isn't that fair? >> it is fair because again ultimately whether uaps as they now call them, whether sort of drones from russia or china, the united states government as again in terms of national security has to know what's out there. ultimately it is their responsibility to find out what's this so they can protect the nation. will: absolutely. douglas mckinnon with a topic i think is one of the most important out there getting the least attention. thank you for your time this morning. >> you bet. will: coming up, hey big

plans, 2.3 trillion for the jobs plan. that is a lot of money. what are your thoughts. >> absolutely. this is president biden's administration. what he is proposing the most radical spending agenda in a generation. i'm a single working mom, i'm longing what he will do, to do to our economy, i came to congress to fight for our kids future, not mortgage it. when you add, look at spending, future covid relief spending i'm hearing rumors about now too, we're talking 7 to $10 trillion in new spending. the only way to pay for it, the highest tax hike in american history, in the middle of a pandemic. i can't think of a worse idea to do to our economy and the american people quite frankly. pete: completely untethered from any accounting or balance sheet. we're in a new rubicon. i don't know where we are. i don't know anybody believes we can balance it, right, congressman? how do you pull back from that you create an addiction what was

supposed to be temporary, now they want to make that type of spending permanent? our budget reconciliation process is gone. can you really rein it in? >> you can't right now. we have $28 trillion in debt. deficit is at 3 trillion in counting. when you add on the new spending -- pete: 3 trillion deficit. >> insane what we're doing right now in the middle of a pandemic. there have been proposals in the past. i will not blame the left on all these issues. democrats, republicans alike for decades, spending increased over the years. we not held ourselves accountable. balancing the budget has to be how we do this. no one is talking about the spending. no one talks about how to rein it in. a trillion here, trillion there. seven to 10 trillion spending on top of last year 3.5 trillion in covid relief spending. talking about taxes, they do it on emotion, we'll tax the rich.

someone will pay the bill, on hard-working americans and small businesses. unemployment will do up, wages goes down, in the middle of a pandemic of covid-19 i can't think of a worse idea. will: congresswoman, there is way to pay for that, that is willing to do, just by printing more money. continuing to print money that is a way that spreads the cost of this across the entire -- they will talk about tax raises oh, that will be on the rich. we know that is not enough to pay for it all, inflation affects everyone, devaluing the dollar is a way of taxing the entire economic strata, seems to me that is increasingly likely outcome as we head down this path. >> it is. it will affect us. we printed $4 trillion last year. estimates this year we'll print another 4 trillion more. it will of affect inflation, absolutely. that is a great, that is a great comment there. the only thing we talked about for years is the penny plan. the federal government,

businesses, covid-19 because of crisis that they had, they had to cut spending find ways to do that. if the federal government would do that with one penny each dollar they spend, could balance the budget a couple years. imagine that, working, operating efficiently like a is about. instead they're spending our money, our kids money, grandkids, our future. they're mortgaging it. jedediah: congresswoman, nancy mace, i think sometimes the numbers get so big, people say it is too much to tackle. we have the responsibility for the next generation. we appreciate you being here on this. >> thank you. pete: thank you, congresswoman. we turn to a few additional'd lines starting with a fox news alert. two people are dead, one injured after a gunman opened fire at a wisconsin casino. the suspect was shot dead by police. they believe he was after a person who worked at the casino. >> targeting a specific victim who was not there, but decided

mask according to the massachusetts interscholastic athletic association. my next guests are taking action to reduce mask wearing for kids. she wouldn't join us right now. so great to have you all this morning. when i first saw the outdoor mask mandates had been lifted, oh, that is great news. now you see the caveat when it comes to sports for youngsters. start with you, dawn, how does it make you feel the idea if your kids want to play certain sports they have to wear masks outside? >> it doesn't make any sense to me. over the last year we have learned a lot about the coronavirus. based on what i'm seeing i'm not seeing any data that supports children wearing masks outside. jedediah: i want to read you the guidelines from the miaa. here is what is says, athletes are required to wear cloth face covering and masks per eaa guidelines covering nose and

mouth. coaches and spectators are required to wear face coverings, and practice social distancing. i know you started a petition in pure community. do you have any support among parents in the community that feel the same as you? >> the guyed lines are what frustrate me the most, i feel like they're meant to be protective they're also, borderline discriminatory. i mean, it doesn't allow for children with disabilities or learning disabilities, physical disabilities to not wear them. our town, our school district and town doesn't allow for medical exemptions or like a doctor's note for masks. we're all kindp lumped together in one group with a blanket mandate we have to follow. it is frustrating. as a mother, i have several friends whose kids are playing soccer, running around the whole

time, 45 minutes straight wearing a mask, purple in the face and we feel powerless. there is nothing we can do. so i am speaking to speaking to the board of health. may 10th they will have updated guidance from the cdc on outdoor sports. jedediah: i mean it is completely unacceptable there are no exceptions. there are kids with asthma. this is utterly ridiculous what is unfolding. >> correct. jedediah: i would love to talk with whitney and summer. whitney, start with you. i know you take karate, you have to wear a mask. how does it feel to have the mask on trying to do karate? >> it is really hard and annoying. getting wet, touches my face. it doesn't feel very good on my face. it feels weird. >> summer, i know you wanted to play soccer. your parents have decided they don't want you to play soccer with a mask on outdoors. they don't feel that is the

right decision, but how do you feel about all of this? would you have wanted to play with a mask on? how does it feel when you're in the karate class and you have the face and nose confined. >> i don't like the mask. jedediah: why not? >> because, i can barely see people and it is really hard to breathe. jedediah: yeah. you know, don, there is another component of this. we talk about the health component a lot but there is another component of places being consistently. i have a 18-month-old, they see people masked all the time. can you speak about to your decision, why when it came time to soccer outdoors you decided that wasn't the right decision for our children to play outdoors with a mask? >> from an health standpoint, very concerned, when our children complain to us about them being, have a hard time breathing, that is, you know that is just fundamental thing right there, where i'm just, i

me an my son were like, yes. faded all the way to the back. jedediah: oh, man. all right. we've been talking a lot about the decisions about opening or not reopening schools and who has had a major influence in that decision making. there has been some talk of teachers unions. many said, oh, no, they're not playing a role. this is all about the science. check this out. aftc senior director for health issues, kelly trouter in, sent this email. obtained by "the new york post." thank you again for friday's rich discussion about the forthcoming cdc guidance and the suggestions made by our president randi weingarten. we were able to review the draft comment of the documents and were able to provide initial feedback of staff possible ways to strengthen the document. we believe our experience on the ground than inform and enrich thinking what is practicable and prudent in future guidance documents. this puts front and center a concern many have had, that the

decisions being made about school reopenings weren't about the science and weren't coming from the medical community but were coming from the teachers unions. that is it what we're seeing develop right here. pete: it is. we're seeing that because of a freedom of information act from group called americans for public trust. emails go from private organizations to public employees, get them through a foia. that is where we got here. there are tons of emails like this sloshing back and forth, this particular email, credit, forwarded to the cdc director, randy weingarten head of federation of teachers. this was a union full-court press, directly preceded the cdc put the brakes on full reopening in back to class. two instances suggestions from the union were adopted nearly verbatim by the cdc. the cdc was ready to say we're opening up regardless of community spread in your zip code, the union said, no, no. slip in some language says we

can always revisit this. let's slip in language, if you have a family member who is at risk, they were you don't have to do in-person teaching. they created a truck, a route you could drive a truck through to give unions bandwidth they needed to not reopen. nothing to do with science. here is garbage statements we get back from spokespeople like the aft. when they talk to the "new york post," here is spokesperson for the federation of teachers. the aft represents 1.7 million educators, health care professionals, public employees who spent 14 months serving on the front lines or sitting at home in the covid-19 pandemic. naturally we've been regular touch with the agency setting policy that affect their work and lives including the cdc. it is beyond maddening. they're rigging it so they don't have to go to work. the unions are doing their work for them. they he will us it is about science. will: let's be precise about our

language. this wasn't the aft lobbying the cdc. this was the aft puppeteering the cdc. to your point they wrote it. adopted the language whole cloth. they verbatim took the language, american federation of teachers wanted when it came to school reopenings. this exposes two things. many want to walks around believing cdc is non-partisan organization giving nothing but true medical science. this clearly revealed it is not true. they're driven by a political organization, the american federation of teachers. the second think it exposes is very important. don't walk around thinking teachers have your best interests in mind. they clearly do not. one big i am prettiment of our students in public schools getting educated is our teachers union. they insured would not be back in person learning this year. they insured the medical community would have their back. here is what the cdc is saying. wollensky spokesperson jason

mcdonald, as part of longstanding best practices cdc traditionally engaged with organizations and groups impacted by guidance and recommendations issued by the agency. we do so to insure our recommendations are feasible to implement and adequately address the safety and well being of the individuals the guidance is aimed to protect. these helpful interactions get feedback to insure clarity and usability. education of your children be damned that is the takeaway we need to understand. there is no sacrifice too great including education of our children to stand in the way of the political agenda of the things like the teachers unions and their manipulation of our government bureaucracies like the cdc. jedediah: as we know many schools around the country remain closed exclusively, remote learning taking place in the institutions, forcing a lot of parents making difficult financial decisions for themselves and their families. many moms and dads decided to stay home, homeschool, to manage

remote learning. many are forced to look into alternative methods of teaching. there is great distrust of the public school system and centers for disease control to do what they should do, to follow the science do what is best for these children. dr. nicole saphier weighed in on all of this on the big saturday show. listen. >> american academy of pediatrics in january and march reiterated children need to get back in school. there is rise in suicide, substance abuse, mental health claims. yet they still remain close. continuing to give outs for schools not to open, all that is during furthering equity divide. private schools have been open. charter schools are open since september. they have been doing great. the big study came out of north carolina showed there is negligible transmission in schools. and just last month, 80% of all school teachers had already gotten their first dose of vaccine. there is no reason schools should not be open right now. it is criminal what they are doing to our children. pete: that is the science that

the teachers unions absolutely plowed over and said we don't really care. oh by the way, almost every state teachers educators, administrators have been prioritized for the vaccine. so now you have vaccinated teachers who ilk nor that and still won't go in the classroom. you know what randy winegarten and aft knew back in february, if they slow walkth enough, slow walk to summer, school's out now. let's see how we can handle things in september. mark my words, there will be certain school districts in certain places where unions will plant another flag in september. some of your kids will still be on zoom calls in september. will: sacrifice of your children's mental health and your education, socialization for a political agenda like this, this doesn't impassion you, i don't know what will. but, on to sports. fans returning to the stands for 147th kentucky derby and it did not disappoint. >> coming to the finish, in the

administration but the former head of homeland security said biden's attempt to blame his department for the ongoing crisis is quote a pure lie. former acting defense secretary, heritage foundation visiting fellow, chad wolf joins us now. thank you, chad, for joining us this morning. he is pinning it on you, former administration officials in the trump administration, saying you didn't share information. is that true? >> well, absolutely it's a not. as i indicated that is a false statement and a lie to the american people. what we know we gave the transition over 200 different briefings. a lot of that did have to do with immigration and border security. they had all the information. i briefed them myself. they had all the information they need. i don't think there has been any statement other than the president himself that indicated dhs wasn't completely transparent on all the information we gave them during that transition. so to have the president come out now to justify the crisis on the southern border saying they

were given virtually nothing by the department of homeland security, as i indicated is just an outright lie there is no facts. there is no data to back that up at any point. will: chad, the entire exchange between president biden and craig melvin there begins to be an admission there is a serious problem at the border, unwilling to call it a crisis, saying it needs urgent action. even pointing the finger, even pointing it suggests there is problem. it is not our fault but somebody's else's fault. later in the interview he said it is getting better. is that true, is it getting better at the southern border? >> no, absolutely not a number of miss statements, again lies during that interview. one he says they inherited a grossly broken system or to that notion. again, absolutely not the case. what we know is that border was secure, it was under control and the numbers bear that out, coming into inauguration day. with the stroke of a pen in about 10 days, president biden

and the administration broke all of those policies and programs down. we have the surge and crisis that we see today. they were he goes on to say, we think we have got it under control. you have over 170,000 illegal apprehensions in the month of march alone. likely the same number in april once those numbers come out. nothing about that is under control. in addition, you're limiting i.c.e. from picking up over 50% of dangerous criminals and other folks who need to be deported and removed from this country. so there is no sense of the word that this is under control. this continues to be a crisis. the administration is not serious about enforcing the rule of law and they're trying to talk their way around it and trying to blame it on the previous administration. that is where i draw a line. will: right. >> we put a number of policies and procedures in place to protect the american people and we need to be clear about what we did and how the current administration is trying to describe that. will: chad, with president biden

playing the blame game in that interview i think it is also fair to say in that moment, in the exchange you could see some insecurity, vulnerability, recognition this is not a strong issue for us. that bears out in the polling it shows americans are very displeased with handling of the border, with all of that, really quickly, do you expect the change in approach from the biden administration handling the border? >> unfortunately i don't. think they painted themselves politically in a corner tearing down what they know works. we went through an exhaustive process throughout the trump administration. once we didn't have any help from congress on trying to decide what we could do through our own authorities. we did that. again the biden administration tore this down. so it is very concerning but i don't see this changing. i will say the facts are on our side. meaning the american people know this is a crisis. will: right. >> doesn't matter what kind of description the president and others say. will: that is absolutely true. chad, appreciate your time. thanks so much for setting the

seven days. laredo sector u.s. border patrol agents arrested a total of five gang members in the last week including an ms-13 and two 18th street gang members. they exploit the influx of migrants attempting to enter our country. will, it's classic. of course if you've got border patrol that have to be focused on minorses, the criminal cartels are using it as a decoy to run the real criminals through, and the numbers are only the ones we know eau of, those -- know of, those who slip through are the real story as well. will: and joe biden is saying it's president trump's fault, what's happening at the border, the previous administration's fault. and, oh, by the way, he also says it's getting better. i asked former acting dhs secretary chad wolf about those accusations earlier. listen. >> the border was secure, and it was under control, and the numbers bear that out coming

into inauguration day. with the stroke of a pen, in about ten days, president biden and the administration broke all those policies and programs down, and we have the surge9 and the crisis that we see today. we have over 170,000 illegal apprehensions in the month of march alone, likely that same number in april once those numbers come out. nothing about that is under control. in addition, you're limiting i.c.e. from picking up over 50% of dangerous criminals and other folks who need to be deported and removed from this country. there is no sense of the word that this is under control. jedediah: yeah. i mean, this just haven't -- hasn't been taken seriously. okay, what are they going to do about it. you know how kamala harris has gone 39 days, no presser on the border. we don't really understand, at least i don't understand what she's doing. i know she's looking into root causes and says she feels it's a priority to campaign for gavin

newsom, now she's going to be out there pushing joe biden's jobs bill when in the meantime there has been a crisis unfolding for months now down at the border that they've been hesitant to acknowledge for fear it will be a stain on their own legacy. just seems to me that the respondent falls on them to act -- responsibility falls on them to act. i don't know, i don't see anything moving in a positive direct. pete: no, it's not moving in a positive direction, and it won't if they won't even acknowledge who's in charge of it, and then they make up fake reasons like root causes and planting trees in central america. you know they don't want to fix it. border wall lays on the ground with gaps unfilled, border patrol agents are turned into nannies, now we're shipping unaccompanied minors all over the country so it doesn't look like a crisis is. handicap i.c.e. and, ultimately, give them a notice to appear at a court date two years later, maybe they will, maybe they

won't. they don't care about it in the first place, and it will not change. elections have consequences. will: i mentioned earlier in the show oftentimeses our debate can kind of remain in the unprovable range, each side has its theory and ideas and nobody gets to claim victory because nothing's proveable. that's not the case when it comes to coronavirus. we've seen the implications of policies play out directly, and we've had labs of experiments that our statements represent where we can see the results. "the new york post" says the statements with the strictest lockdowns ruined livelihoods and did so without saving lives. here's a full screen quote. progressive politicians across the country assumed unique power in the last year, took away personal freedoms and destroyed livelihoods without saving lives, yet they still have yet to admit their historic failures. the public should -- attempt to

bring major change to the nation when they have failed families so starkly across the country. this is such an important point. clearly failed policies from california, michigan, new york to the federal level. the results are in. jedediah: yeah. it's interesting to me to see a lot of those people relocated, right? they left california, they left places like new york and moved to florida. will those people want to go back? because now they have a profound distrust in the leadership in their own states. they've stet set up camp and they're saying, wow, this is a much more favorable environment to business in many ways. they're looking at taxes, many other components of this. so i don't know if you would be inclined to be like, oh, you know what? maybe i'll go back to new york. why? what would be the motivation to do that? in the meantime, we also talk about how the media has looked at governor ron desantis versus the likes of an andrew cuomo, and ron desantis has taken an incredible amount of

heat from the media. take a listen to him on that. >> they smear what they fear, and the fact of the matter is they indulged at the beginning of the covid pandemic the conceit that new york was the model, some of these other big blue states, and now here we are a year out clearly states like florida have performed better across the board. education, covid moringalty -- mortality, economy, jobs, all these different things, quality of life. they don't want to admit that, and so i think that they resort to trying to smear people like me and gaslight their viewers with partisan narratives. pete: it's been straightforward from the beginning. if you, it's easy to talk about it. for us to say personal freedom, personal choi. give individuals the information but also believe in a free cup. that's easy to say on tv. it's a harder thing to take the headwinds of group think of the left, of the shaming, of the

gaslighting of the media as ron desantis and others have done and actually lead. put the kids back in the classroom. and it takes the weeks and months and the retractions that never come for, ultimately, the validation and the reck are in addition that using common sense and trusting people is the way to go. all you have to do is look in the classrooms. we talked about it earlier, we're going to talk about it again next hour because there's an amazing revelation of what teachers unions have done to manipulate the cdc. look at these classrooms, a lot of places where kids are still the on zoom calls, control is the vector, not choice. all right. well, no commentary on that -- [laughter] jedediah: you said it all so beautifully that we're speechless over here.

the science, the political science. will: oh. >> and that's the trouble that the cdc is involved in. this was not so much about what was good for the children, what's good for the community, even what's good for combating coronavirus. it's about what's good for the teachers union. and the biden administration has revealed through this exchange of e-mails that they were unduly influenced by the pressure of the teachers union. and the remarkable thing is the teachers union seems to be just focused on trying not to go back to school. will: right. >> i mean, baseball players want to play baseball, basketball players want to play basketball, don't teachers want to teach? and i think the answer's overwhelmingly, yes, they do. but the teachers union, which is not really representative of rank and file schoolteachers, they seem more to want to be controlling the environment and making sure their teachers get paid but not get paid for teaching. will: well, and that's maybe the biggest point of the story, governor, isn't it? it's disavowing us of

activities. the cdc is not a politics-free, science-based organization. and the american federation of teachers, secondarily and just as importantly, is not looking out for our children. they're, in fact, doing the opposite, sacrificing our children at their own professional and political agenda. >> well, i think that, you know, to say that the cdc is being influenced by politics is sort of like presenting that we're shocked to find that there was gambling going on in rick's café. the truth is we we know there's always political pressure, but when it's exposed, it really does remind us when joe biden or anyone in his administration says we just want to follow the science, i say again, they are, but they're following too much the political science, because the medical science says go back to school. and it's been saying that for a year. and i think that's what's really troubling about this. at least since last summer, the science was saying these kids ought to be back in school, it

would be better for them, they're healthier, emotionally and mentally healthier, and they're losing an enormous amount of stride in their education and in their future by not being in the classroom. will: i think the only question left is what can we do about it, what can we do to take back our normal lives and futures for our children. governor with, always good to talk to you. thank you. >> thank you, will. will: still ahead, as america marks ten year since the death of osama bin laden, general jack keane says it was a setback to the terror group, but that that's not the end of it. he's live next. so i only pay for what i need.

from afghanistan. whil al-qaeda is vowing to wage war against the u.s. on all fronts unless we leave the rest of the islamic world. their demands. as the nation marks ten years, this all comes ten years after the death of osama bin laden. the former navy seal who killed the terror leader joined us yesterday on the timing of leaving the region. listen. >> it's the year of our lord, 2021. i just saw a video of a woman being stoned to death in afghanistan because she tried to get out of a forced marriage. i don't think we're going to install jeffersonian diplomacy. we wanted to get bin laden, i'm really happy, but we should have had troops out of afghanistan right around 2004 when there was no such thing as an ied or suicide bomber, but we just went in and did what we always lately do, we lose wars. pete: here to discuss, retires four-star general jack keane. general, thanks for being here.

i'm curious your take on rob's characterization of afghanistan. i happen to be a little bit more in rob's camp than, you know, our expectations were always too high. we always wanted to meet the conditions on the ground, but what if you can never meet them and the afghans just aren't capable of this? but, so that's the first part of the question. but second, you know, we're ten years from a very significant moment, the killing of osama bin laden, which did change multiple things in the region. your reaction to where we sit and rob's take on afghanistan as well. >> yeah. certainly ten years after killing bin laden, i mean, that was a seminal event, for sure. he was an iconic figure. certainly became legendary because it took us ten years to actually kill him and credit the cia for incredible intelligence work. some members of that team worked on it those whole ten years in finding that target and, of course, led by our great navy seals did a magnificent job.

another bold, daring raid that we've come to expect from the united states military here in america. these are certainly some of the very best military people we've ever assembled. it was definitely a setback, certainly to kill bin laden because of what he represented, but it wasn't the end of al-qaeda as the obama administration made one claim after another. i mean, the facts speak for themselves. three years later we get an al-qaeda-led organization renamed isis by al-baghdadi who was born in iraq, and they conducted 146 world wild attacks -- worldwide attacks killing thousands of people and doing it in a very barbaric fashion. fortunately, the caliphate was destroyed, and now they're the mere shadow of themselves remaining in syria and iraq, and that was done under the trump

administration and, certainly, the united states military again. listen, we don't need to debate afghanistan. we've done it five or six times on this show already. i fundamentally disagree with whey we're leaving. -- why we're leaving. i do think the rise of al-qaeda is very real in afghanistan and isis. just as al-qaeda rose in syria because of a stalemate in civil war, that is the potential of what is here. i mean, chairman of the joint chiefs millue just said -- millie just said he's concerned the government of afghanistan will fracture, likely security forces will pull apart, result in a civil war and we'll say, well, so what? if the afghans want to fight each other, that's their problem. i got that, and i understand those thoughts. but in that chaos, just like in the chaos in syria, it's an incentive to give isis already in afghanistan, an afghanistan

who's already there to rise and become a threat to the more than people. that's fundamentally our concern. we don't want that to happen, certainly. we want to be wrong by that thesis. pete: correct. and as we know, islamists have a very long memory and, you know, it's certainly -- long perceived 9/11, and it will carry on long past that which is why vigilance is required. i've got to get your take on north korea as well. i'm going to skip the sound bite and get straight to what the north koreans said. joe biden talked about the threat from north korea, and north korea responded. their senior north korean foreign ministry official said this to the ap, saying biden's statement clearly reflects his intent to keep enforcing the hostile policy toward the dprk. it is certain that the u.s. chief executive made a big blunder. now that the keynote of the u.s. policy has become clear, we will be compelled to press for

corresponding measures and the time u.s. will find itself in a very grave situation. are we in a grave situation? where do we stand on that peninsula? >> yeah. well, finally we got the bombastic, blustery e comments that every administration has received from north korea. you know, for multiple generations. [laughter] so it's finally here. i think there are some things that are different. yes, we got the language, we hear the rhetoric, the threats are there, but there's no ballistic missiles being fired on a regular basis like they were when president trump assumed power and we were in a much more dangerous situation when they were firing icbms and threatening to use them against the united states. that resulted in a summit. nothing came of the summit because the united states figured out the north koreans weren't really serious. i think the biden administration looking at that the will not

move towards a, certainly, a big summit among the heads of states. they'll work at a much lower level to see if the north koreans are going to do anything credible in terms of denuclearization, take some small steps in that area. the north koreans are still motivated, remove the sanctions, that's what they wan. the problem we have here, pete, is we're in a weakened position because china and russia have both been covert9ly supplying north korea. while they're in trouble, i'm not going to minimize that, they're not as desperate as they were even though the pandemic has had its impact. so it's a little different. we'll see. the north koreans will likely, to get the biden administration may start firing some ballistic missiles. the same play they always do, raise the level of threat, let's have some meetings and get the united states to concede. we didn't concede anything the last time, and i'm hoping that this administration or does not move in that direction the same

way they're moving in the direction with iran to take off those sanctions. we've got to stick to it here. and, actually, strengthen them because we can police up some of the things that are not going right even with our allied countries that have a tendency to back off after a while. pete: yeah, yeah. absolutely. >> let's get after them. pete: genre minding us that -- reminding us that history is not over. thanks a lot. >> good talking to you. pete: coming up, medina spirit makes history at the kentucky derby. renowned horse trainer bob baffert will join us live along with janice dean to celebrate his seventh victory. that's next. ♪ wild horses couldn't drag me away ♪♪ u can live that scuff-free life. honey, i'm home! honey! scuff defense. i love our scuff-free life.

champion. he got the lead and he just refuses, when he gets the lead, he refuses to give up. and it was just an incredible -- it's one of these races, i've always come in here with a heavy favorite, so you're sort of relieved, you know, with a big superstar. coming in with him, i enjoyed myself all week. you gave us the good luck. you're the only one that did a story on him. janice: oh, my gosh, bob. >> so here we are, and he wins the derby. you know -- >> it's magic. it really is. >> anything is possible in this business. that's what i love, nobody can really figure it out. even me, you know? i was, like, i was surprised, you know? i can't believe he kept going. and it was, like, wow, he's going to do it. and you can see there we were just -- i acted like it was the first derby i ever won, you know, because the ones you -- you appreciate the ones that you don't expect. and it was just so, it was so

much fun. janice: what happens next is? he got a call, by the way, before we went to air. tell us what happened. >> well, i got a call, and we were invited to the preakness. i said, well, as long as he's healthy and he tips us off that he's, you know, doing really well, that oohed be the -- that would be the second leg of the tricepping crown. janice: and your jobbing key, johnny velazquez, incredible. >> 49 years old, still has it. hall-of-famer. greatest guy. he did the same thing last year, he had it mapped out. it's just incredible. these guys are so professional. you know, they're good, you know? they're always great. and so they're still great. but he had it mappedded out. we had a game plan, we're going to do this and this. i know the horse, he's ridden twice. i said i just hope it works out.

he liked it better than i did. i'm telling you,ing bob, don't underestimate that horse. johnny told me after the race that he showed him a different gear he didn't know he had. and when you start going a mile and a quarter, that's when you start separating -- the cream rises to the top. janice: one of the fastest. >> there were good horses in there. and i've never been in a derby that was so, the field was pretty close. they finished, they were right there. so it's whoever, you know, got the trip. we got a great trip, and that's what the derby's all about. it's toughest one. janice: i hear from everyone that you have the best team, the most heart, and your family's involved. i love your family, i love jill and bode, and i hope you'll let me come to the preakness. >> we'd love to have you there. we need you there. janice: thank you, bob. back to you guys. winner, winner!

jedediah: josh duggar is accused of downloading child sex abuse. his parents jim bob and michelle duggar say the accusations are very serious. it is our prayer that the truth, no matter what it is, will come to light. here to react, nancy grace who has testified to congress about charges very much like this. so, nancy, your perspective, obviously, pivotal here. give us a breakdown of the charges and your take on that first. >> good morning. thank you for having me and shedding a light on this. it's not really a topic that a lot of people want to a talk about, child pornography, and it's very, very complex. with many adults that were child molestation victims, it goes with you the rest of your life.

now, to add another layer to that, child pornography, the adults that the i have dealt with whose pictures, their images of them being molested as children, they're still being traded online like baseball cards. and it's very upsetting. as you go through life to know that some perv is out there at this moment looking at photos of you being molested when you were a child. that's the reality. so the victimization goes on and on and on. the charges here, very simple, two charges. downloading and possessing child pornography. now, it suggests to me that there are many images, not two images, because the indictment suggests that children as young ed as 12 or under 12 were portrayed being molested. this is the result of a raid on josh duggar's used car lot back in 2019. now, what would a defense be?

a defense could be, oh, somebody else downloaded it or it wasn't my computer or i didn't do it. that's going to be very difficult to prove. who's he going to blame, a coworker, his wife or one of his six, soon to be seven children? jedediah: there are also previous accusations of sexual abuse. how does that play into this? >> it's unfair. back in 2006, you know, there was the heyday of the 19 kids and counting on tlc? it's alleged that he, josh tuggar, now about 33 years old, at the ages of 4 and 15 -- 14 and 15 molested several of his little sisters and a babysitter. nothing was done. he apologized to the victims, and he got a stern talking to by an arkansas state preschoolman. what is that? patrolman. there was never a charge, he went to a so-called rehab.

now put two and two together, all right? it's not rocket science. he was molesting little girl then because if he was 14, they were his younger sisters, right in and now these child pornography charges deal with children 12 and under. it's recurring. and aye got to tell you, a lot of people think you can rehab a child molester, i do not. i've never seen a child molester that did not reoffend. he's behind bars waiting on a bail hearing wednesday. jedediah: nancy grace, fantastic insight, as always. catch "crime stories" available on fox nation. thank you, nancy, we appreciate it very much. >> thank you. jedediah: still ahead, golfing for a good cause. legend jack nicklaus along with bret baier and lieutenant colonel dan rooney join us next. ♪♪ ♪ what do we want for dinner?

the proceeds, what you give back, the scholarship foundation. that's, obviously, the most important part, but what will make this course unique and patriotic and distinguish it from other courses? >> i think jack's quote with says it best above our clubhouse, that he loves the game of golf, but he los -- loves his country more. it's unique because there's never been a golf course dedicating 100% of its profits back to a cause. and we really hope this special place will inspire patriotism and people to understand that freedom is not free. we honor jack with a major championship on every hole, a recipient, and there's even scripture on every hole here. so it is really unique to the game, and it wouldn't have happened without the greatest golfer of all time saying i'm in, and we're following his lead to open this historic place today. jedediah: it's a stunning course, a beautiful, beautiful, patriotic message.

bret baier, you are there with the most patriotic pants in the world right now -- [laughter] what does it mean for you to be part of all of this today? >> well, listen, golf has opened up a lot of doors for me. i've met amazing people through that. i met dan years ago playing golf and became really interested in his cause. i'm in a similar organization, no greater sacrifice, which works with folds of honor for vets. obviously, jack is my golf idol. i grew up playing, learning to play golf with golf my way on vhs tape, and we've become friends over the years. and when the opportunity came to come out here and just help support this place, i said count me in. so that's why i'm here. my son paul's here, we're going to play today on this amazing courses as well. pete: that is a bring your kid to work day, i tell you that. jack, you've built a lot of great golf courses and played

jedediah: when steve ducey comes on, their toys good food, i'll give you something to look forward to. we're gonna start out talking about full reopening or the lack thereof, talking a lot about that and what's the leading factor in the decision-making, is that the science, teachers union, a lot of debate and discussion about that. there's a bombshell report exclusive e-mails that are been revealed to the new york post that may give a little bit of an indication as to who was advising the cdc on full reopening. let's take a look at that. aft senior director for health issues kelli trattner from february 1, this is an e-mail via the new york post. thank you for friday's rich discussion about forthcoming cdc guidance and openness to the suggestion made by our president randi weingarten in the aht, we were able to review a copy of the draft guidance document over the weekend and able to provide initial feedback to several staff about possible ways to strengthen the document, we believe our experiences on the

ground can inform and enrich thinking of what is practicable imprudent in future guidance documents. there you have the association and federation of teachers weighing in and there's been a lot of talk about that. how influential were they, they were quite influential in advising and the science took a backseat. pete: the cdc adopted their language verbatim, that's one heck of an influence, you're tempted to call it stunning, but it's not stunning it is brazen display of political power laid bare that the cdc is not simply an organization who follows the science, but one that bends to the wheel, in this case a political organization that puts your children's future in the backseat and their desire to get back in the classroom in the front seat. we spoke to governor mike huckabee a little bit earlier, they said they're actually following science, just not the science you are thinking about. >> this was not what was good for the children, what's good

for the community, even with good for combating coronavirus, it's the teachers union. it seems to be just focused on trying not to go back to school. we know there's always political pressure but when it's exposed, it really does remind us when joe biden or anyone of his administration say we just want to follow the science. i say again, they are but they're following too much of the political science. because the medical time says go back to school. pete: amen, you said this is brazen but it's typical, this is our washington, d.c. works. the most powerful lobbyists give the most money which means they have a seat at the table teachers unions are number one when it comes to democrats. this is february 2021, the biden of administration, this is the first big opportunity for the cdc to revise how schools are doing business to save the school year end get kids into the classroom, what is the advice, what can you do, the

american federation of teachers, that union to write the language, read it verbatim that the cdc says will include that. what was the language, if there's community spread, beyond a 30-certain threshold almost covers all the districts, you can review the policy which means a policy doesn't mean anything in the first place. if you're a teacher at risk or have a family member at risk, you are written out of this policy. how many people does not apply to. does that include being vaccinated or not, it doesn't. none of this gets revealed without a request with a group called americans for public trust which revealed the e-mails, when you're reviewing an e-mail of fish, it shows you as the press was on to open schools, the full court press was on communions to keep them closed and they would hope we would never know about it. jedediah: a lot of parents looking at the same the american federation of teachers were not

prioritizing our kids and a lot of parents, that's their enter taxpayer dollars in the public school system and they're saying what is your priority if you're not following the science, what was is really all about. speaking of money and spending, president biden has a 6 trillion-dollar spending spree. let's break down where the money is said to go $1.8 trillion to the american families plan, 2.3 million to the american jobs and 1.9 trillion to the american rescue plan. i often say both republicans and democrats need to take more seriously the amount of spending that goes on and i think the numbers get so large that they get removed from reality. but you need to think of the next generation, that is a debt to our children, our grandchildren, great-grandchildren will inherit. somebody better get serious and read what's in the bills and if there's stuff that can be removed, this is the time to do it, those are big, big numbers. will: those are stunning numbers, they become so big there income principal.

they too impacts there will be inflation if we spend like this the value of the dollar will go down. they have to. money to keep up with the spending and that impacts everyone, along the economic ladder will pay the price and pay the $6 trillion. the other key, the timing, the pace of all the spending bills. this is joe biden spending three different bills and $6 trillion in the first couple months of his presidency. this tells me a couple of things, i don't think he thinks he's going to be more than a one term president, he's gotta get it all done fast. it's not just one term is the first half of one term, he's gonna lose the house in 2022, he's gotta get on and get the spending measures and programs in place asap. pete: i can't disagree with that. you're absolutely right, you mentioned reading and removing from these bills, no one is

reading these bills, nothing is been removed and you know who's writing these bills randy white garden in the american federation of teachers when it comes to education, and special interest lobbies from the left who are getting precisely what they ask for, if you look at the tweets from members of the so-called squad ilhan omar and ocasio-cortez following the speech biden game on wednesday, they say were good we have almost everything we asked for in one of these three bills to fundamentally transform america into a socialist country, the idea that money printing matters, were way off that, any tax raising at this point in purely punitive, we don't like rich people let's tax them because it won't cover the shortfall of the additional spending. not even close. jedediah: what is going to come out of all of this is a lot of distrust of big government, i think they have watched big government spend a lot of money they're not sure where it's going there saying wait a second
