in his seat. it's in his contract. jedediah: i believe that. pete: he has a good agent. jedediah: we love having you along. i said weigh didn't scare you too much last time. lawrence: no. pete: how are you doing? jedediah: i haven't seen you face-to-face for a very long time. pete: it's been a while. jedediah: you have a few more gray hairs, i'm not going to lie. lawrence: he did the 7 p.m. every day this week. he killed it. lawrence: i don't think there was an hour last week where pete wasn't on a show. she reported to me. pete: stuck with four more. i apologize for that we are thankful you are here. we are going to learn where to look. day of the stage manager told me to look there but now i'm looking here. so we will figure it out. you will figure it out with us. stay with us all morning long. i will tell you guys, yesterday there was a jobs report that

came out that everyone was anticipating would be huge because the country needs it we are at a place where we want this economy to be rip roaring the jobs report came out and it was not a million jobs as was suspected. what was it? it was a quarter of that. 266,000 jobs added which you want to say hey, that's great. that's what we were doing two years ago when we weren't coming out of covid-19. the unemployment rate as well, jed, it went up. jedediah: yeah, it rose to 6.1% versus the 5.8% expected. obviously this is many reasons. first of all very slow to get businesses reopened. we have been talking about how all of these businesses have been open for a long time it take way too long. also you have these unemployment benefits that have been going on and on and on. we have spoken to so many business owners on this show listen, we can't find people who want to work they're making too much money with the unemployment benefit that seem to come on in

inperpetuity. lesser dollar value, it's just not there businesses are struggling. they have been begging for help from this administration saying can you stop doing this so we can get people back to work so we can get our businesses back and growing? lawrence: when you look at it, it's the small businesses suffering the most. most of them are already scraping them to get by because big business was crushing them. when government wants to be daddy again there is no incentive to go back torque woman of achievement ron see dance has made it clear he wants to take the benefits away. is he not trying to hurt people. my state is open. we don't have a jobs problem, jobs are there. it's the unemployment benefits that these people want now they are making more money. we have got to take it away. do what's best for the state. pete: look at all the stimulus funding and money that's been spent we should be blowing gang bussters. you go to restaurants and grocery stores the shelves are even barely stocked.

the supplies are barely there and people are barely working service center, restaurant. don't blame the server they are working their tail off. running around 15 different tables, if there was something else, we will do something about it we have a statement from the chamber of commerce talking about a $300 a week additional benefit. they said the disappointing jobs report makes it clear that people -- paying people not to work is dampening what should be a strong jobs market based on the chamber's analysis the $300 benefits results in approximately one in four recipients taking home more in unemployment than they earned working. you know, the president was asked yesterday at the end of the press conference where he talked about the numbers, do you think this unemployment benefit thing is having an impact? no measurable impact. next question? really? look around. talk to people. lawrence: we learned he watches cable news. president trump wasn't the only person. pete: he did mention that the. lawrence: pundits are all freaking out about this but

everything is a-okay. meanwhile the businesses are making it very clear. look, i'm not biggest fan of the chamber of commerce. they allow illegal immigration crony capitalists. at the end of the day, they're representing those mom and pop stores saying look, this is bad for our economy right now. but, democrats, what they say is look, the stock market is crushing it. of course it is. they are pumping all this money into the economy. what happens when it crashes and you even got yellen saying well, maybe the fed needs to raise interest rates? wait a minute, that's not your job anymore. you are not the fed anymore. they made it very clear at the fed that they're going to keep it at zero. but, again, to please the progressives, they know this is bad policy. they know it's going to hurt the economy in the long run but they don't care because they need the progressive base and know that government is daddy again. jedediah: also tied to the schools not be reopen in many cases because a lot of those parents feel like let me take these unemployment benefits

right now. i need to be home with my kid. i need to supervise this process. i have nowhere to send my children. i have need to be in charge of this remote learning. with schools not being reopen. families are facing different challenges. making decisions they would not ordinarily make. they are all tied together. they all have to reopen together. pete: i will say this. the big businesses can just manage it on their balance sheet. they can do that temporarily. but those smaller shops as you talked about. lawrence: they don't care. pete: you don't have the workers, you are out of luck. closing one day a week or shortening yours hours which you see with can a lot of restaurants. the "new york post" as they often have a knack of doing have a great cover this morning brother, can you spare an employee. i don't know what that meant. do you know the reference of that? i was learned about it this morning. apparently during the depression the famous show tune was brother, can you spare me a dime. jedediah: okay. >> now it's brother can you spare me. think about it, making a reference back to the depression. no one wants to be there

considering we started our own depression by forcing businesses to shut down. now we are asking to find employees and they are not there. jedediah: we have been talking about what the administration's response to these numbers would be. well, president biden says that the weak jobs numbers show that the american rescue plan is needed. essentially that more money is needed to be spent. take a listen. >> we knew this wouldn't be a sprint. it would be a marathon. today's report is rebuttal, the loose talk that americans just don't want to work. i know some employers are having trouble filling jobs, but what this report shows is that there's a much bigger problem. the data shows more workers, more workers are looking for jobs and many can't find them. today's report just underscores, in my view, how vital the actions we are taking are. our efforts are starting to work, but the climb is steep. and we still have a long way to go.

pete: under statement of the day. do you know how many people are looking for jobs? how many jobs? 7.4 million americans and only 226,000 wanted to take an available job. lawrence: did you see the president? he doesn't meet a beat. he got right back on message. we need to pass my plan. we need to pump more money into the economy because this is going to safe everybody. he knows his talking points. pete: he does. go ahead. jed. jedediah: i'm going to get as producers would like us to do bill simon walmart ceo weighed in. listen to what he had to say on "your world." >> there are jobs. i have been in three states in the last three days there are job owens everywhere. restaurants are not open seven days a week because they can't staff them. the jobs are out there and, yet, our employment is going in the wrong direction. some of the policies that are in place are being sort of counter productive to that growth.

pete: yesterday, you mentioned schools that is a big reason why working mothers and others aren't going back at the extent folks would like to see. part of the reason, of course we know teachers unions they have had a stranglehold on whether schools stay open. evidence came out last week as to effectively teachers unions have been working with, guiding or assisting. >> lawrence: copy and paste. [laughter] jedediah: well said. pete: we only learned of it because of a foia request. we got these documents between the government and the american federation of teachers unions. here is the email that came out on february 12th to remind you this. is an email obtained americans public trust in the event of it new variant of sars covid 2 new update of these guidelines may be necessary. that what was said from the teachers union to the cdc. the cdc said in the event of up creesd levels of community transmission resulting from a variant of sars-crof-2, updates

'this guidance may be necessary. copy and paste. lawrence: this is who they are. i'm so glad that the american public are finally seeing who the teachers unions are. they said they care about your kids. they don't. they care about their pocketbooks. they want to stay at home. they want to reimagine education. meanwhile our kids are struggling. look who is going to be hurt? black and brown kids who they say they champion the most being hurt. got kids having to travel 50 miles because a scholarship is their only shot to get out of the hood. they can't -- and there is no money. there is no money going to the bus rides to do it. only shot and the teachers unions care nothing about it this is our first opportunity for a conversation about school choice. because without them screwing this up, we would never be having this conversation. jedediah: it's changed the way that people look at education drastically. not only because they have insight into what kids are actually learning and not learning pause a lot of those parents were sitting in front of

those computers supervising but also when parents needed those schools most in the pandemic to step up and help them out, they didn't. they didn't. in large part because of these teachers unions. let's listen to rochelle walenski explain how the cdc language was so similar to the american federation of teachers and their reasonable medical certainty. take a listen this is from "the view" on friday. >> as a matter of practice when we put out guidance, we engage with our stakeholders and users of that information. consumers of that information to understand what they need from the guidance when we put it out. we do that before we release the guidance so we understand and confirm that what we put out is what they need to move forward. we did so before we put out our school guidance. we engaged with over 50 organizations and communities. i personally listened to parents. i personally listened to teachers.

we neglected to include what happens if teachers are at high risk of severe disease. pete: trying to listen to that clip. more interested in the fact that right here rob schneider is going to be on the program. jedediah: you got distracted. pete: holy cow i want to meet that guy. you can talk to stakeholders. other thing to take it whole cloth. jedediah: joy behar asked a good question there the answer doesn't, again, like if we were supposed to follow the science, then follow the science, what is going on exactly? lawrence: follow the money. jedediah: do they hold the teachers unions accountable and hold administration allies accountable? what happened? they have sat in their homes and seen their kids develop developmentally and others. >> others have struggled disproportionately. who gets that accountability? who has to answer to that in a

year. lawrence: going to school board meetings. want want state to arrest parents when they object to what's happening to their kids they don't care though. pete: stick with us all morning we have a few additional headlines right now a brazen attack on a female los angeles county sheriff's employee caught on camera. watch as the inmate begins punching the asian-american jail worker. police say she freed his hands so he could use his restroom. the brutal attack continues even after she falls to the ground. the inmate is expected to face assault and hate crimes charges. the jail worker has been taken to the hospital. untraceable homemade ghost guns in 115 page report. the department suggests forcing manufacturers and dealers to put serial numbers on parts and requiring retailers to run gun background checks on buyers. nearly 24,000 ghost guns have been recovered between 2016 and 2020. and were linked to at least 325 murders or attempted murders. and a professional romanian soccer player is left all alone

[laughter] pete: i don't know what they said i think it's hey you moron you missed the bus. it will no word on what caused him to miss the bus in the first place. we will get to the bottom of it. >> i have missed a lot of buss in my day. i was actually using the restroom trying to do it before i got on the bus. i quote in trouble. i had to do suicides. pete: you weren't the super star, were you? i wasn't the super star either so i was always worried the bus would leave me. lawrence: i was a role player, i got in and did my job, box out. i will let you be the stars and box out. jedediah: i love it. lawrence: white house hiding joe biden from the press.

to me well we want him to focus on covid relief. we want him to focus on the economy and some of these questions could be a distraction. does that make any sense to you in terms of a justification? >> it makes sense for political perspective what they want to do is focus on a couple of aspects of both the economy and covid and ignore the fact that the biden administration is really going full bore on a lot of these culture war issues that are extremely unpopular with a wide swath of the american people, but that's why we have a press, right, to not allow the president's administration to just get away with talking about only what they want to talking about that is, in fact, the role of the press in our democracy and they are really failing to fulfill it here. jedediah: we saw this story in the campaign. then we saw we have a full scale days of a the inauguration, biden 64 days if you look at that compared to trump, obama, george w. bush, the numbers are quite high. so, my question is, does this

pattern continue or at some point does the press step up? >> he well, so far they have not and they have shown themselves actually a longer pattern than just since the biden administration has actually taken office, right? we saw this pattern during the campaign where the press refused to sort of press from bind, pressed twice there refused to press biden on the campaign trail in all kinds of issues like the fact that he really didn't have to lay out a strategy, for example, that he e was going to take against china. you think that would be a huge campaign issue and it wasn't because the press really didn't make it a campaign issue and force him to answer questions like that. with president trump, at least we had his record from the previous four years. but, with biden we didn't get any answers from the press on those questions. it's a longer pattern. jedediah: i hate to cut you off. we are out of time, but we appreciate you joining us this morning. >> thank you. jedediah: still ahead the weak jobs report reveals how many americans are opting for

your point, jedediah, the guard has been mobilized and overused so badly over the last year for covid, for vaccines, for social unrest. you know, we still have guardsmen and women sitting here in the capitol staring at a fence on port pelosi they have to be trained for overseas meanwhile they have businesses, jobs, careers. and as pete knows, every time you go to that employer and say i have to go do this or i have to go stand at the capitol or i have to go pick up trash on the border, by law the employer can't do anything but it makes it incredibly tough. it's a national asset that is being over used and if this is going what we are going to have them do and the biden administration is going to have them do, send them home and let them get back to their lice. lawrence: does the texas authority have the authority to call them back home? >> that's right.

he does my understanding under the authority that they're being used. governor desantis called the florida national guard home when he saw that they were standing around guarding fo are t pelosi. i would encourage governor abbott to put that marker down if they're not going to be used for apprehension, bring them back. pete: once this word circuits about texas there will be unhappy people seeing that's what they're being used for. congressman, get your take on one more thing as well. hunter biden's atlanta the gift that keeps on giving, unfortunately, there are new emails that reveal ties between him and alleged chinese american spy. he worked for an emergency company. he was given an assistance for that chinese energy company who many now believe may have been a chinese spy. the president's son, former vice president's son, was he, you know, surveilled? what do we know? >> that email also says that they were providing the chinese

were providing opposition research against biden's opponent president trump then sitting commander-in-chief during the 2020 campaign. the other piece is the head of that chinese energy company massive come glom member rant with close ties to the chinese government who hunter received to as the spy chief of china was also then arrested for bribery charges and that's why the deal apparently fell apart. but he was on the take. he was assigned this very attractive young assistant. this is similar to what happened to swalwell. we know that dianne feinstein, who walls in the senate intelligence committee, had a chinese spy as her driver for years. guys, this is the tip of the iceberg of chinese influence and infiltration into our politics. but this was the sitting vice president and then presidential

candidate is mind-blowing and the mainstream media and the democrats on capitol hill are just going to shrug their shoulders. pete: information fed from the chinese government to a candidate's son? that's not headline news? >> no. pete: and the "new york post" story suppressed. >> suppressed by big tech. we are awash in chinese money and influence and the other piece that i want to get to the bottom of is what other companies did hunter biden invest into at the direction of the chinese government with that billion-dollar investment that he received just month after flying over there on air force 2 as the vice president's son were they into technology? robotics? artificial intelligence that then could be used for the chinese military. that's why we get to get the majority back in the house, we can get to the bottom of this. jedediah: congressman, thank you as always for being with us. >> thank you. jedediah: head over to rick reichmuth i'm not feeling as

the street we have a problem. we don't address that problem, it's going to get bigger. >> the problem is not the police. let's go to the root of the problem. you want to fix something? start at home because it all starts in the house. >> >> they don't start that way. i think a lot of time it's the support that they don't have at home. lawrence: what age do you normally see a change start to happen? >> right now i have a first grader. lawrence: no way. >> first grader hanging around with 20-year-olds. what is he going to pick up from them. >> police can be partners, at the end of the day, it has to be the person in that house with those families saying this is our block and this is how we want it to be. when people rise up and take ownership of their own neighborhoods and say i want better and work for it, that's

how you end violence. lawrence: let's talk about this mural because i think it's the most powerful purely murals i have ever seen in my life. it reminds me of something my parents always used to say. they say the street life leads to you three destinations, jail, locked up, you have got cook county right here, gun, going to get shot, or you are going to be in the grave. and in chicago, this is what we are seeing. this is what we are seeing and what we are trying to do now with the help, is to get them to that side of the wall. to give them hope, education. something that there is more to life than this. lawrence: heart breaking story, guys. we reached out both to the chicago police department and the mayor's office for a statement but we never heard back from them. guys, a story i'm passionate about tackle the root causes and the people on the ground trying to make a difference. they get no support from the

elected leader there kim foxx is allowing people back on the street. oscar the guy i was interviewing there is a former gang banger he has been arrested and on the street trying to help folk get off the street. one of the reads that i interviewed who was a social worker told me that one of her students 14 years old told his mother when she tried to get him off the street i will just call ice on you. that's what the gang bangers are going against their own parents right now. pete: wow. jedediah: incredibly powerful stuff lawrence just hearing from the individuals. and them saying that they are disgusted with people playing politics and also saying that the root causes these solutions have to start in the home. so powerful. pete: time and time again. lawrence: people doing the work. pete: amazing. jedediah: thank you, lawrence for doing that amazing job. pete: pete still ahead how much are your it worth. tip jar favorite account. cyberguy.

donna facility. henry cuellar, thank goodness for the democrat in texas saying listen, this is a sham. they are moving people to other facilities across the country so they can show you empty facility. lawrence: betting on the ignorance of folks not seeing what's going on. other facilities hhs owned by the federal government. we ruin fighting people getting them out of the donna facility because it's overcrowded it's actually right across the street. jedediah: one of the stories that we have been covering this morning that's astonishing is that the texas national guard is on trash duty because there is so much bar badge piling up smugglers that has become the priority of the national guard. our very own will cain toured the border and featured some of those images and conversations about the trash piling up. this is back in april. take a listen. >> so we're between 70 and 80 miles right now from the mexican border. we have always been a traffic area. we have seen a tremendous spike since january 20th. this saul them.

look at them just throwing this is very fresh, too. because i come out here often. they will wear these carpet shoes because it will mask the sound and we can't track them in the sand. >> camouflage you are talking about. >> almost like they have a border crossing kit. all these bags. this is your typical backpack here like this one, standard issue backpack. sleeping bags, jugs, clothes. they can carry far more value of drugs in these backpacks between fentanyl pills and methamphetamine. lawrence: so he, what a lot of people don't know, guys, this is a journey. they pack these bags, they wrap them up with plastic so if they have to go through the rio grande water wet. as they are traveling they just dump it. michael waltz was on earlier he said if this is what the texas guard is going to do then it's time to bring them home. watch. >> i guess if the border patrol agents are essentially baby-sitting and not apprehending, that this is what,

you know, they have left for the guard to do but, you know, to your point, jedediah, the guard has been mobilized and overused so badly over the last year for covid, for vaccines, for social unrest, you know, we still have guardsmen and women sitting here in the capitol staring at a fence fort pelosi they still have to train be and be ready for overseas deployments as well. meanwhile they have businesses, jobs, careers. pete: somewhere there is a lieutenant and captain out there trying to motivate his men in the texas national guard to say we have been mobilized to the border to help our country which deserves sovereign borders what he is telling his staff and that private is go clean up the trash of illegals crossing the border. and the determine knows it's true. the texas national guard is in support of the border patrol. they can't make arrests so they have to do something else.

who wants them doing this? lawrence: they were originally supposed to be there to help with the technology and see what's going on so we could free up the border patrol. they are not doing it bring them home, governor. jedediah: president biden should have to answer questions about what this administration has or hasn't done with respect to the border. and actually jen psaki just revealed on a podcast that they told joe biden not to answer these impromptu reporter questions in the midst of all of this. he had a moment. he actually snapped at a reporter for calling him out for wearing a mask after getting vaccinated this. is from the white house. take a listen. >> why do you choose to wear a mask so often when you are vaccinated and you are around other people who are vaccinated. >> because i'm worried about you. that's a joke. that's a joke. why am i wearing the mask? because on the inside it's still good policy to wear the mask. that's why. when i'm outside and the problem is lots of times i walk away from there podium you notice i forget to put my mask back on because i'm used to not wearing it outside.

jedediah: i don't understand what's going on here. i don't understand why people would feel incentivized to get vaccinated if their behavior doesn't change. i'm starting to wonder, this contradicts what he just said. maybe is he worried. maybe he is a senior citizen. some people feel traumatized by this whole experience and they are adjusting to new life and getting back to normal. maybe he was one of those people. he is applying no, i take the mask off all the time it doesn't make sense and follow the science and not a good message to people. i don't get what's going on here. pete: i don't either. they have translated the basement strategy on the campaign to the bunker strategy at the white house. why would you expose a guy who clearly isn't capable of talking extamp rainously to the press. even though he is going to get easy questions. is he going to get layups. why would you do that? we don't do that as it's ha. i was watching him talking about the jobs report. he did actually take impromptu questions which he pearly does. even when he does every good joke is the one you have to tell the person that you told it that it was a joke or come on, man.

one of those are coming either way. lawrence: this is guy not prepared for these questions. look, no one wants to have the conversation about it, but this is a guy as i often say was once known as the greatest retail politician. they wanted him out there in the public because he knew how to sway them. he has lost a step and you see it in front of your eyes. and every time we mention that then we're criticized. you are not supposed to talk about the health -- meanwhile they did this to president trump. pete: not supposed to talk about the health of the leader of the free world? of course you are. some intrepid reporter will do this and books written about it. not going to happen right now. who knew what when about the mental capacity of joe biden? i don't say that to be mean. i don't want to be. he has lost a step or two or three or whatever. who inside the campaign said we realize he has a diminished campus study here. here is how we are going to cover it up so it doesn't become an issue so he can get elected. there is a story there i don't know if they will write it now. it will be written some day.

the sad part is we all want a rip roaring ready to go president and we don't have that. lawrence: even if he is part of a different party it's america. it's about strength. that he was the thing that bothers me, jed, about this whole mask thing it is it does not show strength it doesn't show it's time to get back to work. we are here in the studio distanced but we don't have our mask on while we are doing our program. you still see him doing interviews with the mask on. and when the reporter -- the reporter says you know, if we weren't then we would -- no, you should push back and say why, we have both been vaccinated why do we have to continue to do it. jedediah: it doesn't follow the science. it doesn't follow common sense. that's what reporters should ask. they should have follow ups and say hold on a second, why would people be incentivized to get vaccinated wear a maverick in perpetuity. what's the message there code is going to take a long time before the numbers are zero if ever. what's the media's role going to be not just on their but on many

issues throughout the biden administration term or terms. you never know. it inez stepman we talked with her. she talked about the press and how the press is failing to hold biden accountable on many issues. listen to her. >> what they want to do is focus on a couple of aspects of both the economy and covid and ignore the fact that the biden administration is really going full bore on a lot of these culture war issues that are extremely unpopular with a wide swath of the american people. that's why we have a press, right, to not allow the president's administration to get away with talking about only what they want to talk about. that is, in fact, the role of the press in our democracy and they are really failing to fulfill it here. jedediah: i will say, too people do see the example being set by the administration. and i know senior citizens, they are afraid to take their masks -- they have been vaccinated they see what joe biden is doing wait a minute, maybe it's not safe. pete: you must know something i

don't. jedediah: he is in a position of leadership. what he does carries more weight than the rest of us. he has to know that so he needs to be careful about his decision-making. lawrence: as you alluded to we need a press to hold him accountable. we are not allowing the facilities when we are allowed in the prior administration. including trump. but we're not able to do it. jedediah: a lot remains to be seen if the press will do their job. we will turn to headlines. video shows blm founder patrisse cullors book in 2012 social organizing book about chinese propaganda and communism. take a listen. >> speak into this young person from arizona grabbed a book and he said like mao's book. man, that's what i was thinking. and it was just really cool to hear him make that connection. jedediah: there you go. funneled hundreds of thousands of business to a company owned

economics kings college brian brenberg. the numbers are stunning. they were way, way down. you had joe biden basically brushing aside the idea that unemployment checks are keeping people from working. what's your reaction? >> he is so detached from reality, pete. i hate to say it but if you look at these numbers and you look at what's happening in the economy and then you consider his response, he is completely detached from reality. we have 7.5 million open jobs in this country. we have vaccine rollout. we have businesses who are clamoring to hire. there is no fleefn april we shouldn't have saw a jobs number well above a million. forget about a million. it should have been well above that the reason all the analysts were so surprised is because they all knew there is no excuse for this number not being huge except that we are under cutting our own recovery with policy that is keeping people out of the labor force and keeping them out of jobs. the president has got to live

for the sake of workers, for the sake of businesses, the president has to live in economic reality not this fantasy land where spending solves everything. pete: it's true. some governors are doing what they can. i think it's south carolina, montana florida effectively saying we are going to end your supplemental unemployment here because the whole point was temporary and covid and we are coming out of it do you think that can spur some growth? >> the frontline in the battle for economic sanity in this country, pete, is at the state level. it's going to be states that are going to push back against federal policy on taxes, on cash, because they have to care about their workers. these are people in their communities. this is not somebody sitting in d.c. talking about the rest of the country this. is a governor's state lawmakers in their state. people in their communities who need jobs. and they know it's good for them to have jobs. they are going to have to push back. the nice thing you are seeing it in the states that do that will win the economic future in this

open this summer and bring everybody back together. and we are going to make it work no matter what those guidelines are. >> yeah. jedediah: rich, what has the registration been like so far? have you had a lot of sign-ups. >> most people in the camping industry things were very, very shaky the earlier part of the year but as soon as we got the green light for camps to open, the pent up demand for camps and camping and parents wanting to send their kids to camp has been a huge surge. and we are, you know, probably getting very close to our historical numbers. there has been a huge comeback. jedediah: wow, that's great news. on that note, rich, have you been able to find counselors, enough people to work the camp. >> well, staff has been a bit of a challenge. i think i speak on behalf of most of the camp owners in america. a lot of staff used to come through the j 1 visa program and with the travel ban in effect,

we have had to pivot and go totally u.s. staff. and it's been difficult getting commitments from them. but slowly but surely we are placing everybody we need to. and we really fully expect by the time camp opens we're going to have everybody we need. jedediah: stephanie, what are you hearing from parent? i expect that many are very excited for their kids to be around other kids and for their kids to benefit from the melt health benefits of being at camp and socializing. what are you hearing? are they concerned about the guidelines? are they concerned at all? >> they are -- they do ask about the guidelines. i think their biggest concern is for the kids to come and be outside and to socialize and just for them to be with their friends again. they are very, very excited for the kids to return to camp. and for the first timers, the parents are very excited for the

to encourage employees to return to the job. pete: here now to react is a florida congressman byron donalds, byron, thank you so much for being here this morning. really appreciate it. so, congressman, there seems to be just sanity overfloweth in florida. yourself included. this idea that hey maybe we should pull back some employment benefits, unemployment benefits once people are -- their jobs are available for people to work. what do you think of this approach? >> we need to do that and we should too it right now. let me give you a little story. i was trying to go to a mcdonald's drive-thru. it's 12:30 in the morning. the 24-hour mcdonald's on the way to my house is closed. this is interesting. it's 24-hour mcdodgeds always open. drive close to my house another mcdonald's pulled up to the speaker. took five minutes for the only person in the store to get there he told me is the only one working and he had to make breakfast for the morning so it was going to take them 30 minutes to fill my order. this is what is happening across the country, restaurants, retail

shops who have been struggling through the pandemic to get back on their feet. people are not going to work. they are simply not reporting. it's happening all across the country. at the federal level and this last coronavirus bill we should not have extended benefits to the degree that we did. we need to go back and revisit it because it's hurting small businesses who are trying to get back on their feet. jedediah: congressman, obviously states that, are you know, stop this extension of unemployment benefits and the leaders in those states are going to face some heat, right? people are going to point fingers at them oh you are don't care about people in need. what should their reaction to that be? >> the one thing that's going to help the people who are in need is getting back to work. getting back to the things we were doing in our normal life. at the rate that people are being vaccinated, the country is actually in a very good place. those rates continue to go up. even though they are slowing, people are still getting vaccinated every single day. it is far safer in america today than it was four months ago, six months ago, 8 months ago and everybody knows it. we have to start to get back to work. we can't rely on the government to put money into everybody's

pocket. it cannot continue. this will not work for our country. we are already starting to see inflation starting to tick up because there is so much money floating around without the necessary demands that need to be filled with this. so we have a serious problem if we don't get it together right now. and i think the president needs to weigh in on this and he needs to actually do the right thing which is work with congress to begin to pull these dollars back. lawrence: i want to switch gears with you. a lot of anti-cop rhetoric going out there from the left. there is this new "new york post" op-ed and it goes like this. this guy talks about he says, quote: i'm a former law enforcement officer but i won't encourage my kids to be cops. what's your reaction to that? >> very concerning because look, here's what's happening. number one, if you are an officer. you are in target now. let's be clear. i know the media doesn't like talking about that. they want to talk about systemic racism and policing. if you are an officer you are a

target right now being watched constantly. some of the policies out there the ideas like getting rid of qualified immunity which will put an officer fiscally on the line not just them and their family, in case anything happens in the line of duty even if you are following the book. following all the protocols and following all your training. like this is not good for what's happening in policing in america. it's very scary especially if you live in a high crime area like chicago, like new york city. you know, like los angeles, california where you need officers on the street. off lot of officers who are retiring early. they're pulling back or they may not actually do the jobs that they want to do in an efficient manner because they are afraid, too. they don't want to get caught up in a situation when they are doing the right thing but depending on what people are taping with video they either get targeted or caught up in a fiscal mess. it's a real problem that we have. pete: not only are they target, congressman, there is a political insensitive these days on the left to go after them as well.

it's an unholy mix that creates. i thought that officer never thought he would encourage his sons not to follow in his it footsteps. police appreciation week starts tomorrow. congressman byron donalds thank you very much. lawrence: from florida. pete: so many smart people from florida. lawrence: freshman some smart people in that class. pete: headlines, a sea of police officer honor an arizona father killed in the line of duty. procession for christopher farer passing dozens of people raising american and thin blue line flags. of the 18-year veteran of the force was killed after being hit by a suspected drunk driver who stole a car. ferrer is set to receive full police honors at his funeral this morning. he was 50 years old. god bless him. the suspect involved in the hostage standoff at minnesota bank was out on bail.

jedediah: needing a hip replacement? that's pretty intense. do you think it's doable, pete? we will need to put to you the test. pete: i have never done one of those. jedediah: producers, you now know we need a kettle bell competition on air that's all we would say. lawrence: i will challenge him. pete: you will beat me. let's not replay that clip. jedediah: let's go to rick reichmuth. rick, are you a fan of the kettle bell swings? rick: yeah, actually. i thought you were going to say 10,000 in a row. i thought wow, that's really amazing. like 10,000 in a month. sorry, guys. jedediah: you will need to show up, rick.

29 people. while more than 187,000 migrants have been apprehended along the texas border, what about the others who got away? let's ask fox news contributor and retired acting ice director tom homan. tom, we always appreciate your perspective on this. this is more common than people think. >> absolutely. no one celebrated this election more than criminal cartels in

mexico. president trump had the most secure border i have seen in my lifetime, in my career. illegal immigration was down 70% to 80%. cartels basically put out of business. then when based on the promises of joe biden, him winning the election, he undid all the progress president trump made. the cartels are celebrating. look, the humanitarian crisis is not by accident. they are sending hundreds of family units to a sector and we talked about this many times on this show so the criminal cartels will push their drugs and people who don't want to get caught including gang members and criminals to the unprotected border because border patrol is so tied up with family unit. the criminal tar tells control the border with mexico and they decide when people cross to tie the border patrol up. lawrence: obviously we know this is a criminal enterprise. are these people coming through a port of entry? explain the environment how they are even able to get into the country. >> because the border is very vulnerable right now. the criminal cartels -- they

will take a group of 200 families to a sector of the border. the border patrol agent have to respond to that humanitarian crisis. and while the border patrol is dealing with this 200 family units, this whole other part of the border is unguarded and that's when the criminal cartels, that's when they move their drugs and people don't want to get caught, the gang members. that's what makes a humanitarian crisis into a national security crisis. that's why smuggling is on the rise. that's why that tractor-trailer incident you talked about, those type of smuggling incidents are on the rise. they can put 100 people in the back of a tractor-trailer and make a lot more money than they can by putting 10 people in the back of the truck. you are going to see more incident like this. i said 8 month ago if he became president the border would be out of control. more people will die. smugglers will make billions of dollars. 31% of women based on data from the past. open borders is -- there is a whole back side to open borders that is tragic. i have seen a lot of tragedy in

my 34 years. a lot of dead bodies. i have spoken to a lot of females as young as 12 that got raped 20 times through this crisis coming to the border. open borders means death, it means more people being assaulted. the only people that winning on this are the criminal cartels because they're making millions of dollars a day. lawrence: it's so sad because i have been on the border, tom, these border agents don't have any backup. sometimes you have one man covering probably three to five miles alone and they're waiting if anything happens, they are on their own. it's so sad. thank you so much, tom. >> thanks for having me. lawrence: coming up, it's the track that is too tough to tame. nascar heads to darlington this weekend unforgettable victory. fox nascar analyst regan smith joins us next. ♪

talladega amazing facility. now we get to come to darlington. just as iconic. it most legendary track that nascar goes to. feels like you are taking a step back in time almost as if you went to wrigley field. almost like an old county fair. the drivers are racing around the track. designed to do 72 miles per hour. they are doing about 172 miles around it. they are running up by the wall. they are about 3 inches off the wall trying to hit it every time they go through there. just a lot of fun things to do here in darlington and fun things to see on the racetrack and one of my favorite places to come to. lawrence: regan, who should would he be watching this week? >> lawrence, there is a number of guys we come do this track they call it a track too tough to tame because it is difficult. one of them that comes to mind

denny hamlin every time we race here the guy to look for. another guy martin truex jr. won a couple himself. if you want to look for some that haven't won here a guy like kyle larson. run up against the wall kyle larson. lawrence: i think he is the favorite for this race, right? >> he is the favorite. have you done your homework. hey, if you want somebody that's not the favorite. maybe make a little more money on him in vegas go for a guy like tyler reddick. he has never won before. pete: denny hamlin in the lead in the cup series but he hasn't won a race yet. does that become something that matters psychologic like i'm ahead but i haven't won. what does that mean? >> i think from a driver's perspective, pete, as long as you are running up front you really don't care. you know the wins are going to come. the problem is if you are up front and lose the race with five or six laps to go every time that gets frustrating.

you want to get those wins. these are tough races to win. especially in the cup series. denny has a lot of wins throughout his career. is he going to win this year it's just a matter of when. this could be the weekend. let's be honest. he has one of the fastest race cars on the track all season long. top five every week. only a matter of time he might get four or five or six of them in a row when he finally does. pete: amazing sport to watch. you leave the politics out of it. watch the fast cars go fast. pretty cool. thank you so much. we will be watching. good year 400 on fox. >> thank you, guys. pete: all right. well, remember to enter the fox bet super 6 stage 2 contest for your chance to win $10,000 of clint bowyer's money. we met him at talladega. great guy. pick six race outcomes stage 2 for your shot to win. it's free to play so don't miss out. all right. coming up. from california dreaming to california leaving.

so people can keep working. what may be working in florida clear live based on yesterday's jobs numbers guys not working across the country. everyone anticipated that the amount of jobs created in april would be possibly north of a million. that was a rumor it could be higher than a million. what was it? a quarter million. 266,000 jobs added in april. the unemployment rate actually rose, so here we are coming out of covid-19, we spent all this stimulus money, the idea was the economy should be on rocket fuel and that announcement -- i mean, even the host on other networks who make a living shilling and defending for the biden administration. couldn't defend it. you couldn't find anyone saying this is good number. lawrence: my favorite was the breaking news came out cnbc host getting breaking news kept refreshing. this can't be right. those are the right numbers. the one number that has me is the fact there are 7 million

jobs available availablena. there are jobs. people don't want to go back to work because they are making more money with the government playing daddy. jedediah: the cover of the "new york post" right on that says companies go begging as rich benefits keep workers home. that's just it. people are not incentivized to go back to work right now because they're collecting these extended unemployment benefits and oftentimes they are saying to themselves is it worth it for me to go to work i'm getting more money from these benefits which may last for who knows how long in these states factoring in that and says it doesn't pay. pete: we may not like it but that's actually a rational decision. responsibilities. we are hearing antidotal evidence people are saying i'm on up employment i want to work for you but i want it to be under the table. why would i go back work and give up this benefit? this is how economics work. the incentives do matter. take the government cash as long as it's there once it's cut off, you will see a change in

behavior. that's not happening yet. look at these numbers, from the bureau of labor statistics as well. anyone who has been unemployed for 27 weeks or longer as the percentage of the unemployed. look at april -- more or less where we started here. and that -- let's bend that curve. when does that curve start bending that people make a decision hey i'm getting back to the workforce? when you see no change there, it means behavior hasn't changed. and we have seen unemployment continue for months. jedediah: also parents need the schools to open. they need those schools open. because right now you have a lot of moms and dads sitting at home and monitoring this remote learning and they are saying you know what? i can't go to work right now. i'm going to collect this unemployment right now. i can't go to work what am i going to do with my kid? not everyone has the luxury of being able to afford a certain type of child care or home schooling? those are luxuries often afford to the privileged. people can't do it. so they are saying something has to change in this whole dynamic, the economy at large needs to be reopen in order for me to be able to go back to work.

lawrence: someone saying that needs to change is the governor of florida ron desantis been under fire look i'm not taking the benefits away. i have to do what's in the best interest of my state and the businesses there. i'm not heartless. you saw we are doing better than any state and we're not asking the government to bail us out. we are actually bailing other states out but we're going to take benefits away. pete: your allowance is over. get out. joe biden did a press conference yesterday at 1:00. he gave -- he did the best he could to kind of paint the numbers as positive. then he was asked by a reporter about the extension of federal unemployment and the supplement of those benefits. here's how he answered it. >> mr. president do you believe in enhanced unemployment benefits had any effect on diminishing a return-to-work in some category? >> no. nothing measurable. pete: no, no, no. nothing measurable. that's what he said. let's rewind 20 minutes when he was talking in his speech about

it here is joe biden encouraging people, you know, to get back to work. watch. >> the data shows the more -- more workers -- more workers are looking for jobs and many can't find them. while jobs are coming back, they there are still millions of people out there looking for work. and the idea that they don't want to work. most middle class working class people that i know think the way my dad did. he used to say and i know i'm repeating myself but i'm going to continue to because i think it's critical. a job is a lot more than a paycheck he would say, joey. it's about your respect. your dignity, your place in the community. more than a paycheck is people's pride. about being able to look your child in the eye and saying honey, it's going to be okay. i have never forgotten that. lawrence: he is double talking like he is encouraging people but in the same instance pumping that you will money into the economy, is he also wearing the mask all the time telling people

essentially it's not safe to get back to usual. it's double talk from the white house. jedediah: he seems very lost. [laughter] jedediah: truthfully on the economy each more so. is he trying to justify decisions and this is what -- is he a career politician. this is a guy who has been in politics for a really long time. hasn't been in business. he doesn't feel these issues. whatever someone tells him to say. whoever he has hired to strategically, you know, enact something. here, say this. he says it. all this conflicting language is coming out but he doesn't feel like he is in touch with the way the decision-making when it comes to the business community actually affects those decisions whether you are talking about the minimum wage he is just not in it. i don't feel like his soul, his mind is in that place. pete: i was trying to understand what he was saying reading it off the sheet here as he was reading it the data show mass more workers are looking for jobs and many can't find them?

that's just not true. there are millions and millions of available jobs. everywhere you look you can find a job. so either he doesn't know what he is reading, like you said, or is he lying. lawrence: over 7 million. do you know who is fired up about this. jason cramer. you were talking to him earlier, pete. hes is fired up about this. he said people need to get back to work. take a look. >> exactly what he is saying that many people want to work. no, they don't. when you are handing them so much money, so much unemployment, it's back firing because i have got people walking in my back door saying can i have a job but can you pay me under the table? no, i can't do that. that's not how this works. you want to provide jobs. now we are reaching tout high schoolers. i obviously am working for a reason. i'm saving up for college. so, as many jobs as i -- that are open is more options for me. >> i also just got a second job as well so, yeah, there is a lot of jobs opening up. we have been taking advantage of it. pete: jason had the passion. jedediah: he absolutely was

feeling. these people living these experiences day to day who are struggling, who are seeing the impact of these, sounds to me like the president is getting three or four separate talking points. >> right. jedediah: three or four separate people. saying them all consecutively and don't realize they are all contradictory. they don't make sense. pete: ron klain, nancy pelosi. take your pick. jedediah: it's his job. hold on a second, i can't say this. this isn't what is hang this. isn't going to help people. that's his job. and he is not doing it so, i mean -- lawrence: guys, how embarrassing it is that you are having kids saying we are getting two jobs. i'm saving up for college. i'm putting some money in my pocket. and then the adults don't want to go back to work. it's quite sad. pete: absolutely. jedediah: representative byron donalds weighed in this and more. take a listen. >> drive close to my house another 24-hour mcdodged, i pulled up to the drive-thru speaker took five minutes for the only person in the store to

get there he told me is the only one working and had to make breakfast for the morning so it was going to take him 30 minutes to fill my order. this is what is happening across the country. restaurants, retail shops who have been struggling through the pandemic to get back on their feet. people are not going to work. they are simply not reporting. it's happening all across the country. >> at the federal level in this last coronavirus bill we should not have extended benefits to the degree that we did. we need to go back and revisit it because it's hurting small businesses who are trying to get back on their feet. pete: businesses are paying more. they are paying bonuses. they are trying to entice workers to come back. they know they need the workforce. but there is a point at which your personnel costs cut into your margins and it doesn't make doing business even worth it. lawrence: democrats say they want a $15 minimum wage. some of these companies are paying $21 and some of these people still don't want to dom back to work. jedediah: go ahead. pete: i know you love california i was going to defer to you on this. this is not good news. jedediah: this is my favorite state and my heart is hurting. california population in decline

more than 1 will 2,000 people between january of 2020 and january of 2021 have left california. that is pad news. and i think this is -- yeah, population drop for the first time in the state's recorded history. well, sad news for california, i mean the problem is the leadership there. the problem is that the leadership has been horrible. gavin newsom has been horrific. you have all of these restrictions. you have a lot of business owners in california that made a decision that we can't exist here under these conditions and you already pre-pandemic had so much regulation and such high taxes in california that unfortunately the weather is -- the other side of that is always weather. the weather in california is amazing but there are so many things on the opposite side now that people are saying i love this state but i just can't stay here and that's sad. lawrence: in texas we took from them. just don't bring your policies. caitlyn jenner has a plan to fix this, she says, take a look. >> certain things a governor could do and certain things a governor can't do. i can't say we're going to lower

taxes and taxes are lowered. it's just not going to happen. it is a process. but, as governor, the first thing can i do is i can freeze everything, stop, okay? i don't want people leaving this state. i feel like i'm on a big white horse ride into the state, you know, and saying hey, stay, stay. there is a little hope on the horizon here, okay? but, we need to stop everything, okay? we can -- taxes, okay, we are at the highest marginal tax rate in the nation at 13.3. pete: you got to do something wrong to screw up california. and that's exactly what the left has done. jedediah: i feel like voter haven't made the mental switch. see what democrats have done in that state. still not saying i need to vote differently. still waiting to say i'm going to vote for this democrat and this democrat. no, this one is going to be better. same line of bad thinking. sometimes you need to go a different way. lawrence: politics of all heart,

no feelings, not how your paychecks are looking. pete: can a democrat run in california on let's say cutting taxes, reducing regulation and supporting the police? you can't. who is that person? jedediah: i wonder someone like kind of independent ran on the democrat ticket and -- i don't know. but california, please save yourself for me. lawrence: we will see what happens. jedediah: all right. we will turn to some headlines for you. that's next. maryland judge is banning court workers from wearing thin blue line face masks. than email obtained by "the baltimore sun" the judge believed the flag could create an issue of perceived bias. the order, which only applies to the state's district courts, came at the request of a public defender who believes the flag is linked to white supremacist groups. and a gun rights advocate pushing back on doj proposal ghost guns. wants to update the legal definition of firearms to target the rise in 3-d printed parts and gun kits with no serial numbers. the national association for gun

♪ >> when we put out guidance, we engage with our stakeholders and users of that information to understand what it is that they need from the guidance when we put it out. we did so before we put out our school guidance. we engaged with over 50 organizations and communities. i permanently listened to parents. i personally listened to

teachers. pete: cdc director rochelle walensky admitting agency allowed more than 50 stakeholders and teachers unions to have a role in school reopening guidelines. now one group called the national parents union says if the cdc was open to suggestions from the outside, they would have loved to have a say kerry rodriguez is the present of the national parents union and joins us now. thank you so much for being here this morning, kerry. really appreciate it. the teachers unions are basically right writing the guidelines. were parents consulted? >> well, if they were you, we didn't know about it we have parent organizations in all 50 states d.c. and puerto rico. we reach over 15 million families. we didn't know about it and none of our friends knew anything about it we would love to know who those were.

what this comes down to is you can't talk out of both sides of your mouth. the cdc has really strong expectations on american families that we trust their guidance that we trust scientists and doctors and epidemiologists that all of this stuff is free from politics and we had a very rough patch with the trump administration whether or not we could trust what was coming out of the cdc you can't have it both ways. if you want to build trust, you have to build. this was not a good way to restart this relationship. pete: what could they do to rebuild trust with parents who feel like the science has been used to justify keeping kids in masks, keeping schools closed, keeping teachers out of the

classroom. as advocate for parents what case would have you made? >> here's the thing. >> you cannot tell us on one hand when it comes to vaccination you have got to trust the cdc. now vaccines are safe and we can now even have kids as young as 12 sign up for these vaccinations, i have a 1-year-old in the other room that today i can go and get him vaccinated. we are going to have that conversation because here in massachusetts where the cdc director actually lives, we have got walk-up clinics and told e. today we are going to decide whether or not we go and get him a vaccination. i want to be able to track the cdc director when she says doctors have evaluated it and me as a mom, you know, it's okay for me to go and get my son this vaccination. and that that is based on science. at the same time, i need to also trust that the cdc recommendations around school reopening are also based on science. pete: yeah.

>> when i hear that the teachers union have free reign to go into a document and edit it at will that doesn't tell me it's based on science. pete: who can you trust at all and what if any of it is putting the kids first? it's crazy. kerry rodriguez. thank you so much. we appreciate your time this morning. pete: more "fox & friends" minutes away. ♪ 50% off on america's most reliable 5g network. keeping your oysters business growing has you swamped. you need to hire. i need indeed indeed you do. the moment you sponsor a job on indeed you get a shortlist of quality candidates from a resume data base claim your seventy-five-dollar credit when you post your first job at indeed.com/promo

learn these things quite early and they shouldn't be surprising. i understand it's surprising because we have a lack of father figures in our neighborhood especially where i live considering that over 90% of the children that i work with don't have any fathers. they are having trouble reading. they are having trouble in school and their discipline, et cetera, until they come into the program. i have worked with children from the juvenile court system. our program has a 0% recidivism rate. every child come to our program from jail has never been back. that's from a program i have been running out of my house since 2019. we are getting to the point where we are about to have our own schoolings and planning to open this fall and just purchased 40 acres teach our children wilderness training and firearms training and teach them to grow their own food and open a fresh food market on that side of town because that side of town has no grocery store. we didn't have a politician to do it for us and didn't ask anyone to come help us do it we decided to do it for ourselves. lawrence: let me ask you, king, have you had any message of support. that's what needs to happen. when you find someone that does the job when you don't do it,

weeks ago. he saw what they are doing right now. >> how far are we from the mexican border right now. >> we are between 70 and 80 miles right now from the mexican border. we are well within the united states border. what they will too is come walking through the dessert and then they will wait here and then the scouts, which you see in these mountains, will tell the vehicle it's clear to come pick them up. we have always been a traffic area but we have seen a tremendous spike since january 20th. this is all them. look at them just throwing -- this is very fresh, too, because i come out here often. so they will wear these carpet shoes because it will mask the sound and we can't track them in the sand. will: this is the camouflage you are talking about. >> it's almost as if they have a border crossing kit. all these bags, this is your typical back back here like this one. standard issue backpack. sleeping bags, jugs, clothes. they can carry far more value of drugs in these backpacks between

border, we have to ask ourself why. the moment they go tour a facility like the donna facility, it's a national story again. cnn and msnbc are going to be forced to cover this, and they're going to have to answer some tough the questions. how do you explain this overcrowded facility? i mean, you can move people across the street to hhs in the same facility, essentially, but that doesn't really solve the problem, jed. jedediah: yeah. and you mentioned representative henry way january, democrat from texas. here's a sound bite of him talking about how the administration's trying to pull a fast one on people with respect to what's going on at the border. take a listen. >> what they're doing now is they're moving the kids from the border patrol tent over next door to the hhs facility. with all due respect, it's all a shell game. pete: that's coming the from a democrat. and this headline coming from

"the new york times" saying overcrowded border jails give way to packed migrant child shelters. they're not even hiding it at this point. lawrence lawrence "the new york times" covering it. they're calling this a crisis. i mean, the president straight up admitted to it a few weeks ago. he said it's a crisis. jen psaki said, no, actually he didn't mean that. this all goes back to his rhetoric on the campaign trail, breeding a culture that basically said it was okay. it's one one thing to deny that the people are doing it, but when you actually talk to the people crossing the border illegally, they say the biden administration said it was okay. jedediah: so many democrats self-identified as being concerned about the humanitarian crisis with the last administration. they pointed to everything and said, oh, but the humanitarian crisis. now suddenly there's silence from those same people. what about the lack of media access for so long? what about the fact that, you know, the vice president is being tasked with some role with

respect to the border when it comes to root causes and yet hasn't found her way down to the border so see. up close and personal to see what the effects can lead to when the wrong policy is in place? what about refusal to look at some of the past policies of the last administration and say, well, you know what? this worked, and here's why this was in place. it's deeply irresponsible about people who see these conditions children are in right now. pete: very much so. you're absolutely right. you have got the covid overlap, and then covid has also created a crisis in the classroom with kids who have not been able to get back in the classroom because of the power of teachers unions who found every reason for them not to be. who do you look to? how about the cdc,? they should be creating guidelines to get those kids back in class. the teachers group ons have more sway over your science. look at the pseudoby side of an e-mail -- side by side of an e-mail from the teachers unions

to the cdc obtained through a foia request. in the event of high community transmission results a new update of these guidelines may be necessary. that was february 1st, screen left. eleven days later, screen right, the cdc writes: in the event of high community transmission, updates may be necessary. so they copied and pasted. what that is, changes? we're going to change the rules again. and they did the same thing with another piece of language where they said if you're at high risk or anyone at home is high risk, none of this applies to. everybody can find a reason to or not to, and this is after you just had the vaccine. lawrence: right. which they requested. this is all on the heels of the cdc director giving guidance that it was safe to open up the schools and then jen psaki got up there, well, it's not really the official position of the cdc, even though the cdc logo is

right behind her. this is just a perm -- and they wonder why the kids are going crazy. because it's not science. this is personal position from the teachers union, and they want to take parents out of the conversation. unions get to decide what they want to do, democrats get to say what they want to do, now they want to prosecute parents when they openly say we're tired of this. jedediah: what has rochelle walensky, the cdc director, said about the roll of the teachers unions? here she is on "the view" this past week. take a listen. >> you know, as a matter of practice, when we put out guidance, we engage with our stakeholders and users of that information, consumers of that information to understand what it is that they need from the guidance when we put it out. we do that before we release the guidance so we understand and con firm that what we put out is what they need the move forward.

we did so before we put out our school guidance. we engaged with over 50 organizations and communities. i've personally listened to parents and teacher. we had neglected to include what happens if teachers are at high risk of severe disease. jedediah: no. she has it backwards. the cdc is supposed to be following the science and informing the teacher and the community. they're not supposed to be listening and saying, how do you feel -- no. this is supposed to be about the science, about what's safe and not safe, not politicize. pete: yep. confirm that what we put out is what they need. that's not how it works. i mean, you want to get to that point, but what you put out should be what everybody needs. lawrence: they love the science until the science was inconvenient. the president of the national parents' union is calling them out to. >> we'd love to know who these stakeholders were. but what this.coms down -- this

comes down to for us is the fact that you can't talk out of both sides of your mouth. the cdc has really strong expectations on american families that we trust their guidance, that we trust scientists and doctors and pep deemologists -- epidemiologists that all of this stuff is free from politics. this was supposedded to be a new era where, you know, we were trusting, you know, science, the doctors, and now we find that there's been additional layers of political interference. so you can't have it both ways. president if president i think two things to pay attention to goings forward, guys. the bar was teachers need to be vaccinated, get back in the classroom. that happened, they're not back in the class room. what about kids? look out for that. that could be the next requirement, if the kids aren't vaccinated, i'm not coming back. that's a huge hornets' nest. start talking now to the administratorses of your schools. are the mapses coming off in

child shelters. so they've been moved from one place to another. representative mcclain, let me start with you. what'd you see town -- down there in. >> it's far from being fixed. in fact, the policies of the biden administration, i would argue, are incenting modern day slavery. we have two issues at the border. one is the drug cartels are actually running the border. you don't get across the border unless you pay a cartel minimum of $7,000 per person to get across the border. and what does that do? a family of four from guatemala, brazil, russia, romania -- that's what we saw -- crossing the border, how are they going to pay that $7,000 per person back? they're not. they're going to become indentured servants. i really don't think that's what the binden administration is trying to incent. however, that is what's happening. second is our border patrol agents are not controlling the

border because they're processing all the illegal people that are coming others which is allowing drugs, fentanyl, meth to come across the border. we have two crisis that these policies have put in place. pete: representative smith, real quick. >> you know, joe biden and washington democrats campaigned on open borders. what we saw was not open borders, we saw no borders. you're looking at folks that -- lisa and i saw families from romania cross the southern border. that's from europe. people are not crossing just from mexico a south america. they're coming from asia with, europe, the middle east because they know these policies of joe biden are letting people have a de facto residency. it's unacceptable, it's scary. all they have to do is pay the criminal cartel, and they can cross the southern border. pete: representative mcclain and representative smith, thank you so much for your time. >> thanks, poopt. great to be with you. pete: still ahead, l.a.'s controversial d.a. will not seek

anthony's case. >> good morning. well, i'm angry, first of all. just looking at the reaction of of -- it's not fair, you know? they deserve the worst possible punishment there is, you know in what kind of -- are they going to do? do all these awful things to them, so they shouldn't receive any mercy whatsoever. jedediah: you know, david, the justification being given from gascon's office, some of it anyway, is that the death penalty would yield appeals that would be traumatizing to the family. as far as i can see it, taking the death penalty off the table is traumatizing to the family. >> yes, it is. they did the worst crime there is. they need to get the worst punishment. there's no justice for anthony until we can get the -- pursued in this case.

jedediah: you know, brian, a what's shocking to me about this is that gascon apparently failed to review any of the files, didn't look at the materials, didn't look at the photographs. so how was this decision made, and are you surprised at all given what's been coming out of the gascon office for some time now? >> yeah. if ever there was a poster child case for the death penalty in california, it's this one. and just so your viewers know, prior to november when gascon was elected, the d.a., jackie lacey, she impaneled a committee for six months to review all the evidence in this case to determine whether the death penalty was, should be imimplemented on this case. there was not an overnight decision. then gascon gets elected. not one time did he speak to prosecutor, not one time did he review the file, not one time did he review the hundred photographs of anthony's dead body. i personally reviewed those

photographs at the d.a.'s office. he was bruised from head to toe. his groin area was bruised. so in effect, what gascon has done is he is using a tortured, sex yawlly molested and murdered -- sexually molested and murdered 10-year-old boy to promote his radical social experiment. jedediah: maria, your final thoughts to gascon's office on this? >> you know, it's just -- he -- going through the death penalty phase that we would have to go through all this stuff. well, we're living it right now. thinking that anthony's not going to get the justice he deserves, my baby boy deserves it, and gascon is getting in the way of that. jedediah: maria and david, our hearts go out to you for your loss. brian as well. we'll continue to follow the story. we appreciate it.

to come in. the chinese space agency for some reason decided not to do this. they kind of have a reputation of just letting their stages fall wherever they decide to fall. and this one's in a particularly eccentric orbit. it goes up 200 miles and comes back to 100 miles over and over again. every time it comes down to around 100 miles in altitude, it brushes a little piece of the atmosphere. but how much we can't predict, and that's why we can't predict where this thing's going to fall. lawrence: ohio mercer what is -- homer, what is the likelihood it could the land in the u.s.? >> well, it could. it passes other the united states, so we really don't know. i think the latest prediction i saw was perhaps turk stand, but before that they were talking about the indian ocean. so we just don't really knowment

it's something that all space agencies should take into account, and we wish the chinese would to do that. the last year this very same type of rocket and stage, we think, landed on the ivory coast and perhaps caused some damage in a little village there. so the chinese space agency really needs to get their act together. lauren lawrence they seem to be very sloppy, and i hope the u.s. government starts to hold them accountable. any way, homer, thank you so much for joining the program today. >> you bet, lawrence. lawrence lawrence still ahead, a third grader wows his school and the internet with his performance of the national anthem. and we're lucky enough to have him join us live for another incredible performance right after this. ♪ so gallantly streaming. ♪ and the rockets' red glare --
