addicts, and me. don't an idiot and got get the book. that's all for tonight. be sure to follow me on facebook, instagram and twitter. ♪. will: sun coming up over new york city. good morning. welcome to "fox & friends" on this sunday morn, may 23rd. will cain, emily campano and pete hegseth. emily: such a fun morning, great morning. lots of fun like yesterday.

pete: people still having fun. it was first time i was driving in, 4 len 45 people were still having fun. will: people are having fun. you can see that on the streets of new york. will you announce to us what day it is? pete: i don't know. got to the set 45 seconds before the camera turned on. admittedly i will check at the break. i wasn't all that enthused about it. maybe not top of mind. will: we'll call that a deep tease. we bring to you a fox news alert. the suspect is arrested for a brutal attack on a jewish man. he said he would have no problem doing it again. emily: he is charged with several hate crimes on the attack of joseph brogann.

he is still roverring at home. pete: they are looking for these men wanted in his beating. a police arrest a suspect on this horrific attack on a jewish man outside after los angeles restaurant last week. this is a trend we talked about a little bit yesterday. more than disturbing. from "the washington post" article this one is from miami. you had, you had men on the street finding random jewish citizens saying, saying things free palestine. they said we're going to rape your wife. think about the way in which you view another human being which is subhuman when you say something like that. the individual who attacked that jewish citizen in the streets of new york, his name is a wasim. he said he would do it again i would do it again. i have no problem doing it again. he called him a dirty jew, f israel. hamas will kel all of you.

these are not uncommon refrains if you're familiar with islamists. that is what it is. we're not talking about must limbs here. we're talking about the islamists who believe in the supremacy of that, and denigration of jews. you see it on the streets of our country, there is violence there with hamas launching rockets at israel. they feel this is opportunity to assert that supremacy grounded in the dehumanization of jews. emily: adl has extremist blog you can see horrifying real times the attacks and crimes committed around the country. it is cities in large and small. it is not isolated incidents. this one defendant is in jail. his attorneys arguing he is in college, he is not a flight risk. this is one example he is in custody. what about stripping judges of their powers here in new york this year, how many have not been caught. a hate crime can bring with it penalty of 10 years if there is

bodily injury, up to life. how many more hundreds of attacks are we hearing about these guys are not getting caught or being prosecuted. will: more than half a century it is a bipartisan consensus that the united states stood by its strong ally israel. it appears on the democratic side of the aisle that is no unifying consensus. we heard rashid today 258 leeb and ilhan omar with a pro-palestinian message. we have a split in the democratic party. representative josh gottheimer of new jersey is talking about the burgeoning split among democrats. >> you've got a splinter group of some in my party who take extreme views on this issue. and, even some calling israel terrorists or an apartheid state. i mean that is totally outrageous. that is not where the democratic party is. pete: time to put up or shut up

what ted cruz is saying. ultimately how you vote will be a big indication where you actually stand. so senator ted cruz is introducing legislation, remember in the middle of the war that went on for the last couple of weeks in israel there was a potential arms sales to the state of israel which many members of the far left democratic party, how could we sell arms to israel. we don't like they have the iron dome to begin with. the approval of that arms sale is still up for question. ted cruz is saying how will you vote on that. >> next week i'm issuing a resolution to approve the arm sales. i will fight for a vote. there are a lot of democrats that play ftse. if you're willing to send weapons to israel or sass shea up to the antsy israel left you need to own it.

i hope we have a vote next week and decide which side of the line everyone stands on. emily: i applaud senator cruz for doing this, issuing a public litmus test. i have to point out the writing was on the wall for quite sometime. as far as back as 2012 democratic congressman admonishing their own party for failing to censure aren't at this semetism. or failing to pass bills that condemn anti-semitism. obama administration was working blatantly anti-stem tivity. the fact there is not accountability for democratic law make that's speak for that party that is happening for quite some time. i can't wait to see when the writing is on the wall for senator cruz, hopefully for the public, a bit more reviewing people hide behind, that is not bigotry. it is blatant anti-semitism.

will: we should talk about this as the show moves along. what is the motivating factor for the split in the democratic party? for many it is anti-semitism. i think others, democratic party embraced this whole ideology. they're looking for who is being oppressed. which side can i align myself on somehow being painted in the seat or character or the role of a victim. i think for many on the left. that is their filter which they view the world. that is the filter which they will view this particular issue. kristin soltys was on the big saturday show. she was talking about this divide in the democrats as well. >> for democrats there is a lot of division. in my polling if you ask who do you sympathize with, who is more responsible in the conflict, a lot say both equally. a lot more say it is israel's fault than hamas' fault on the

democratic side. there is a big problem with the democratic left not embracing israel's right to exist that makes it challenging for democrats on it issue. pete: antiwes or pro-west, judeo-christian values is a real thing. it is the world in which america lived. harry truman recognized the state of israel first in a simple two sentence statement. it has been the ethos of our country. if you don't like america, don't like israel, like the west, lack of support of israel, anti-semitism is the canary in the coal mine. that is the key indication where you stand on this. it gives indication on everything else. will: we'll talk more about this through the morning. you're absolutely right, pete. western values, western civilization pitting against other ways you view the world is tied to what i'm talking about the oppressor and oppressed. that is the same way the seven youth soviet union broke town

their society. that is the prism they viewed the world for the better part of a century. emily: why it is accepted to create a false moral equivalency between hamas a terrorist organization and sovereign state of israel. moving on to other narratives. we have the palm beach county school district created an equity statement raising eyebrows, frankly shocking parents. the school district of palm beach county is committed to dismantling racism and other systems of oppression and inequity. the school system of palm beach county committed to dismantling others in rooted in white advantage, transporting our system. they talked about redistributing resources. this went to frank, all parents and all teachers and those of jewish faith and others were frankly horrified at what they said was indoctrination being disseminated. many parents are pulling their children out of the school. watch, jessica martinez gives her thoughts about this.

>> you state you want to teach children in an equity embedded system. how can you actually write that after everything you have done to our children? this current mask policy discriminates against them. your equity statement says you plan on and i quote, dismantling structures rooted in white advantage. end quote. what current structures do we have rooted in white advantage? your statement is dividing us and it incites racism. being parent of hispanic and caucasian student, this equity statement leads me to believe you're viewing my children's academics by the color of their skin or their ethnic background. we want clarification of this. my children will not be divided. will: this is not disconnected from the covers we were just having. pete: not at all. will: when it comes to israel and palestine. look at the tenants of critical

system, you can find it in the disney hr documents. find it in the study, guidelines put out by the african-american museum on the mall of washington, d.c., where it explicitly says things like individualism are character sessions, illustrations of white supremacy. that is exactly what you're seeing about. pete: this is florida. a school district inma. this could be your school district, be wary anytime, anytime you hear the word equity. that to me is the big indicator t sounds lot like equality. for a long time, for the longest time until this year i heard the two and i thought of them more or less synonymous. will: i think people still hear it that way. pete: still hear it that way. they use the word equity intentionally. equity is equal out come and equality is equal opportunity. there has not been equality for black and brown people for hundreds of years. we recognize that. will: that's right. pete: at same time we can appeal

to our better angels what martin luther king, jr. talked about. you don't do that through equity, telling white people they're evil and black people they're victims. will: don't solve past racism with present and future racism. emily: when critical race theory rolled out in california, for two years before it was implemented, people that protested it, gave it thought and analysis, all issues were from minority communities. this is not about the oppressors raising up and revealing their fragility as often talked about on the left, certainly not. it is those that see racism for what it is. pete: it isn't the skin color of everybody and every place. police departments are called systematically racist when majority of their members are hispanic or black. a lot of inner-city police departments it is not just who is in the particular position. will: we'll keep this conversation going on throughout the morning. still ahead, going maskless, many states across the country are following the science and dropping mandates.

♪. emily: it's official, team tebow is making his return to the nfl signing a one year contract with the jacksonville jaguars. stephen @ smith is lasting the move that a black player would not be offered the opportunity for a comeback. >> is this not example of white privilege? what brother you know is getting this opportunity? black people repeatedly felt like we have the proverbial knee on our neck. we don't have, we constantly have to scratch and claw our way. there is no way to eradicate

white privilege without white individuals giving up some of their privilege. emily: here to react former nfl player, ceo of the brewer group, jack brewer. good morning to you, jack, great seeing you again. your perspective so valuable here. tell us your thoughts what stephen @ smith had potentially straight competition and opportunity for who competes best? >> on this glorious sunday when i give praise to god i have to listen to stephen a bring this darkness that is exactly what it is. it is darkness. he is talking about a man of god but not acknowledging the grace that god has put on tim tebow's life, that is the real issue here. for him to talk about race in the national football league when it's made up of 80% of the players being black, listen to me, almost 80% of the players in the national football league are black. maybe the jacksonville jaguars want to bring a man of god into

their locker room. maybe they have someone who will sell anymore jerseys than anyone else in the nfl, which is exactly what happened when tim tebow signed that contract. he sold more jerseys than anybody the leak. parents can buy jersey of a guy that represents god, represents christianity. maybe that is why the jacksonville jaguars gave him an opportunity to play. we can't forget. he hasn't made the team yet. they are giving him a chance. what is wrong with that. that is celebrated in america. that is what this country is really ab not the perspective of the stephen a. smith and the left constantly dividing us with this sick demonic culture spreading across to our kids. >> that is exactly right, jack. earlier pete and i were discussing as well the commercialism, capitalistic quality of the franchises which is their right frankly for them to survive. to your point about the jerseys

selling, what if this is investment making getting their return for their own franchise, highlighting a man of god, highlighting a really wonderful person as ambassador to the community, as they put it, when he was competing, he is a man like 18 again. he is in the best shape of his life. for all of those reasons it seems like a sound decision and only bringing race into it was stephen a. smith? >> 100%. you can't even run a business anymore in america if you're a white man? what is going on? emily: right. >> makes no sense, blacks in america have gone through so much. stephen a. smith in this perspective that people are putting out that call themselves woke is just keeping and holding african-americans back because i can tell you right now, there is a lot of african-americans that disagree with stephen a. smith. there is a lot of god fearing people are sick and tired of hearing everything go back to the color of someone's skin. i have kids persian, i have kids that are black, i have kids that

have german in them. what am i supposed to tell them people like stephen a. smith continue to be voice leaders in this nation. we have to stand up as christians, conservatives and we have to start giving our kids opportunities to be around the word of god and people of god and they should be looking up to tim tebow. i'm going today, and i'm buying a my son a tim tebow jersey. emily: i love it. jack, speaking of youth, the opportunities you have launched a faith based academy for at risk youth. tell us about that. >> you know what? we got sick and tired of talking about the problem. we want to be part of the solution. last year was over 2.1 million kids that dropped out of high school, underserved kids. we stripped god out of our schools. these kids just don't have solutions. it is not always just up to teachers. we also have to depend on coaches and influencers and mentors. that is exactly what we're trying to bring.

we're faith-based organization. we're not going to stand for kids that don't follow discipline. we'll stick to the word of god. we'll pray over our kids. and we really, truly, feel, that we have a solution for this sick problem that is happening. our streets are filled with these kids having run-ins with law enforcement. these kids are shooting at each other. they lost the love for humanity. that is a parenting problem. so we all have to step up and do something. i hope that everyone will join us across this nation in doing this project. emily: jack, you are a blessing and a lighthouse. it was an honor to have you with us today. >> god bless you. god bless fox. emily: still ahead, silencing support, facebook is accused of blocking a florida distillery from advertising because the new bottles pay tribute to first-responders. the business owner joins us live coming up. it drives you.

♪. pete: back with headlines, starting with a fox news alert. new jersey state police are investigating a reported mass shooting at a house party. more than 100 people were reportedly at the party when gunfire broke out. the police have not confirmed any deaths or injuries at this time a developing story. we'll continue to provide updates as they are released. the u.s. is seeing the lowest number of new covid cases in nearly a year. according to the cdc the seven day average of new cases has dropped below 30,000, which hasn't happened since june 18th of 2020. the average number of deaths dropped to the lowest level since july. u.s. reported 30 million cases and nearly 600,000 deaths. >> a cases drop more governors across the country following the science by dropping the mask mandate for those fully

vaccinated. our next guest says time to stop living in fear. will: we have johns hopkins school of medicine professor, dr. marty makary. that is a interesting phrase and accurate. we seem need to stop living in fear. i don't know if school exclusively or fear primarily is driving decision making these days? >> good to be with you guys. i saw dr. walensky talk about the good news in a positive way. she said the cases are coming down, she said variants are a wild card that could reverse all of our progress. why would you say that? that is like me taking someone out, discharging them from the hospital after a long successful battle with cancer, i just want you to know the cancer could come back? why would you say that right now? cases are collapsing. 80 to 85% of adults are immune in the united states. positivity is now 2%. we've always said when we're less than 10 cases per 100,000

we get back to normal. we're at about five. we're there now. pete: doctor you mention ad number of 80% immune level, that factors in natural immunity which is something we don't hear about at all. why won't the cdc, why won't the leadership ever talk about that? is there a scientific reason why not? >> well it is the greatest mystery about our leadership right now. i think the greatest failure of our medical leadership because half the population as of about march have been immune from the infection from prior exposure. and i think they just like to see the old-fashioned randomized control trial studies. guess what? we don't have those studies. we have studies from the observation of doctors we're not seeing reinfections. it has been 15 months. where are the infections. natural immunity works. if you look at data from overseas it is there. 62% of adults are vaccinated which is where we are now.

what about the other 38%. over half of them have natural immunity. that is why we're seeing herd immunity right now. emily: dr. makary what do you see as the biggest challenge to the american public understanding to stop living in fear? what is holding them back from actually grasping the true reality of the situation? >> well, emily, i'm down in texas this weekend. we went to a barbecue restaurant with a bunch friends. folks works there, cooking, wearing masks outdoor. look at cdc guidance. they're doing what the cdc is telling them. we have to remove restrictions aggressively as we put into place to protect the credibility of public health. summer camp, they have to be six feet apart, outdoors with masks? this is the absurdity of the actually guidance. when they bunk together, three feet. lie inverse, head to toe, toe to head.

this will damage public health. a harvard study found over half of americans don't trust cdc. will: you said austin. you said technically you're in texas. you're double masked outside because you're in texas. more and more you're seeing push for teens to get vaccinated. talking about 12 to 15-year-olds. it has been at least from a casual observer, i think we all qualify as casual observers at this point, the science doesn't back up the necessity for children to get the vaccine. where are you on this push? >> we have to be back to normal with one simple clear message f you are unvaccinated. you haven't had the infection you need to be careful indoors around other unvaccinated people at your own risk. er otherwise we have to have no restriction whatsoever. kids should live normal life, normal summer camps, normal school without restrictions. dr. fauci said we're below 20,000 cases as a country we

don't do on the sabbath, saved their lives possibly. the driver of the uber happens to be a muslim. but it seems like jewish blood is cheap. it seems that you can get away with beating up on people and you don't get the same reaction from the politicians especially the democrats, especially, you know the extreme left. in fact i would say that aoc, talib, omar, bernie sanders the rest of that radical group they encouraged this behavior by their support, support of hamas, by their criticism of israel for defending its population. that is what they were busy doing all of last week, sending a terrible message, siding with the bad guys. so it is really out of control. this, this is america, for god's sake. jews beaten up all over the country? we're talking about vicious,

malicious hate. some of these people committing these crimes, i have no doubt would murder these jews if they could just get away with it. they don't care. they're not afraid. the guy that was arrested said i would do it again tomorrow. pete: dov, for our viewers who would see this, where does this come from? why is this happening? you said it. the individual in new york, said i would have no problem doing it again. down in miami someone was yelling at jews, we're going to rape your wife. where is, where does this mind-set come from of pure hatred of jews? >> i got to tell you it didn't happen suddenly. it is coming out now. now there is an excuse to go out and beat up on innocent people. you know we used to be that, oh, we loved jews, we just don't like zionists. that is so ridiculous.

if you look like a jew, they will attack you. if you're wearing a yamulke, i wear a yamulke, i'm eligible to be victimized by these animals. unfortunately, again, where does it come from? it comes from the home. it comes from the mosque. but this is real vicious hate that we are observing and i hate to say it, someone who, you know whose mother went to auschwitz in 1944, to be witnessing this in the greatest country in the face of the earth, the united states of america. this is something that really causing, i can't even begin to tell you what it is like. i have had the calls here in jerusalem for people during my night, fathers calling about their kids who were beaten up. the terror it causes. it is not just somebody being physically assaulted, okay we go on with live. it changes that person's life

forever. you know the politicians in this city, for god's sake, took some of them literally 36 hours to speak out. we still don't hear from the one and only chuck schumer, the protector of the jewish people. 25 years. pete: why hasn't he spoken out forcefully, dov? >> i tell you why, because the only thing chuck schumer cares about is not having a race from aoc. that is all he cares about. he doesn't give a darn about anything else. he doesn't give a darn about the jewish community. he didn't give a darn about anything. as long as aoc is happy with chuck schumer, that is all that matters. how pathetic. how sick. what hypocrisy. anti-semitism should be treated no differently than we treat hate against the black community or any other community. why are jews different? why is it different when it comes to the jewish community?

how many politicians in new york have spoken out? can we count them on one hand? how many? come on. this is new york, over a million jews, it is pathetic, embarrassing to see the silence because the left-wing radical part of the democratic party, they are a minority, they are running the show. that is a fact. pete: right. >> including the show in the white house. pete: it was politically advantageous before to support the state of israel. now because what is happening on their left flank maybe it is not anymore which is really, really scary. dov hikind, we appreciate it. >> thank you so much for having me. pete: got it. we have a few additional headlines. >> thanks so much, pete. turning to the headlines, president biden bails on notre dame breaking with recent tradition he will not give a commencement address to the school's graduating class. it comes after 4300 people

an uproar, jeffrey epstein before he died got off on a sweetheart deal, a non-prosecution agreement in the southern district of florida at the u.s. attorney's office there. they would not prosecute so long as he pled guilty to very small misdemeanor charges in state court. here you have guards who were supposed to be watching him, going by his cell every 30 minutes to check on him, they are getting a deferred prosecution agreement. which means if they cooperate with the government, if it becomes necessary. if they do some community service, they also won't be prosecuted. so i find the sort of book end irony here to be pretty surprising. will: right. that is the prism which i asked you that question. everything about jeffrey epstein's situation is abnormal. so many people are watching at home go, did, the question did jeffrey epstein kill himself that is the question everybody

wants the answer to. if you have guards not doing their jobs, falsifying records, then getting a plea deal that is abnormal it leads us to more suspicion and conspiracy s there a opportunity to with the two guards, to dig deeper, investigate further, did it go higher up the chain? >> it is, will. there is one of the reasons why there is that clause about cooperation there in the deferred prosecution agreement, if the grand jury is active if there is an investigation going on what people higher than the guards might have done, for example, were the cameras working? what did people say about the cameras? did people tell the truth to the investigators when they were asking about when epstein was found, exactly how he was found? did someone take photographs? what are their conclusions about the conduct of the prison itself in the immediate aftermath of epstein's death? all these things are important. it is just bizarre, it has taken this long, we really still have no idea what happened.

will: right. you know i think i put the wrong prism on this question and this entire segment. it is not abnormal. it is suspicious. everything is suspicious. when something is suspicious, when everything is suspicious, it leads to more conspiracies. maybe warranted in this case. fancy thanks for helping us understand the most recent developments in the story. >> thanks, will. will: still ahead, silencing support. facebook is accused of blocking a florida distillery from advertising because its new bottle paid tribute to first-responders. the business owner joins us live next. the rx, crafted by lexus. lease the 2021 rx 350 for $439 a month for 36 months. experience amazing, at your lexus dealer. turns out deb's constipation with belly pain was actually ibs-c giving her grief. so she talked to her doctor because she wanted more relief. that's when she said yess to adding linzess.

deliver, today is national lucky penny today. will: okay. pete also national taffy day. that is pretty underwhelming. tuesday this week coming up is national brown-bag it day, which is every day in new york city. will: bring your lunch. emily: liquid lunch, right? pete: beer, you put it in a brown-bag. will: i didn't realize that -- emily: tea -- will: tea totaller. pete is looking what knowing. pete: that many years in new york city you don't know what brown-bagging it means. you hold on to the texas dna. will: i guess. i like the fact it is national lost penny day, lucky penny day. find one on the streets wherever you live. we start this morning with what is going on at the southern border of the united states. several republicans pushing back on biden rolling back trump era

border policies. looking to ramp up lawsuits against biden's policies in fact. here is arizona attorney general mark brnovich talking to fox news earlier about these policies. it's a full screen, practically speaking. this result is what the biden administration is doing. it is literally slashing the amount of people being deported. slashing the amount of arrests, means people who are dangerous, people who are felons are released into our communities. it's a threat to every neighborhood and every single person. pete: that's right. the attorney general of missouri added on to a statement, we're asking the court to issue a preliminary injunction to ask the biden administration to reinstitute the migrant protection protocols. we will never back down on insuring all six million missourians are safe. emily, people wonder what is the recourse? feels like there is no recourse. the biden administration came in and wiped clean all the hard,

painstaking hard work that the trump administration had done to actually secure our southern border. it is good to see attorneys generals at least in some states to take the legal recourse. ultimately there are laws in our books to be enforced, deportation, they're choosing not to enforce. emily: what we're seeing here play out as well is the illustration it is not just border states are affected. to your point frankly all 50 states and puerto rico are affect all the migrants they absorb and unaccompanied children are being absorbed. lawsuits filed by attorney generals across the board, not just border states, how their communities are being affected. the citizens feel so helpless. this is in contrast for example, the bill that you caller comrade alexandria ocasio-cortez cosigned by 35 democrats which as the attorney general for arizona pointed out the felon designation, she is seeking to undo that.

she is seeking essentially to restructure what constitutes ago straighted felony. sheave says the system is race i. therefore she says the designation is unfair. it wipes away a lot of immigration protections appeals protection she says those immigrants enjoy. will. will: hard to deny the change in policy from washington, d.c. had a direct effect what is going on at the southern border. the first thing that president biden did in office was repeal, with executive order many of those trump era policies. then the question becomes, what is the implication of that? what is the downstream effect of that? former acting dhs secretary chad wolf says the security and humanitarian crisis is the downstream effect. >> if you're a minor you will get released into the united states. if you're a family unit, you are likely going to be released into the united states. what does that do? that incentivizes to you grab a child, come across the border to claim you're a family unit, because you know you will be

released into the interior of the united states. that is your goal at the end of the day. that is your goal. that is what this administration is facilitating. once you get here you know you will not be removed. this administration put the handcuffses on i.c.e. law enforcement agents. they cannot remove individuals that have no legal right to be here unless you're a serious aggravated felon or you're a terrorist. pete: what he said no legal right to be here. there are laws, by the way, missouri, not on the border certainly has jurisdiction, because it is affecting everybody right now. another story that is very related to this that caught our eye there is a gentleman in washington state, his name is matt larkin. he had run for attorney general. he presumably would have been the type of attorney general that would have joined this suit. he didn't win. now he is running for congress. he released a campaign slogan. his campaign slogan is. we don't always report on campaign slogans, but his

slogan, make crime illegal again. matt larson, congressional candidate to fox news, astounding wing of left-wing prosecutors to pursue charges against criminals. it makes us all unsafe. they refuse to prosecute crimes. running on a platform to make crime illegal again. i only pray we don't see another quote, summer of love. that is what it ultimately comes down to. the biden administration and these attorneys generals put in place specifically to take the side of criminals. not enforce the law. not deport. not arrest. to not send, effectively you're making crime not illegal anymore. when that happens, everything else unravels, everything else is justified. it sounds silly make crime illegal again. that is precisely where we are. will: go ahead. it is a goodies tilllation of something conversation you and i had. sheriffs along the border said to me, will, illegal immigration is two issues, it is about

quality of life, affects our quality of life in texas and arizona but it is also about rule of law. do you live in a society where rule of law matters. this seattle congressional candidate. this applies not to just illegal immigration issue as well. it is garson in l.a., will he prosecute crimes. every step of the way. does the rule of law matter, make crime illegal again is a good way to make that phrase resonate. emily: i have to point out, as you know i was a federal attorney, i represented government and i was a criminal defense attorney. the system is set in place so there is a countier balance of the prosecutor's job is to prosecute crimes. there is always the balance of the defense. there is always the balance of the impartial judge and jury decide whether enhancements are applied. it is not up to the prosecutor. i see it as a failure of the system, but our constitution, that the spirit of americans put into effect to insure everyone's rights are protected. the victim's rights are no less

valued than the rights of the defendant which are equally important. not one over the other. that everyone is well-represented. when you diminish the value and role of the pros tore. take it away from the hands of the judge, jury, defense attorney, where are the victims left? where is the community left? who will speak for them? pete: that's right, if you don't like the law, change it but you don't get to be the prosecutor to pick and choose what types of laws you like. will: really quickly, if you do not have the rule of law, what you have essentially is rule by whim. whoever is in charge a president, a prosecutor, a mayor, you are at the mercy of their arbitrary decisions. that's the point of having the rule of law, something that guide every single one of us including those in power. we talked about being out there in the community as well. pete, you and i have done diners, we heard this over and over. i can't hire people, i can't get enough staffing. there is high unemployment but the weird thing is nobody wants to come to work. now the biden's administration is response to this, oh, high

unemployment benefit is the problem, rather things like child care or covid are a problem. they're hearing something different from one of their very own. pete: terrible jobs numbers, come out, they try to explain it away anything other than paying people not to work. a headline from "politico," they're figuring it out. a biden friendly economist is creating a big headache for the president's spending plans. here is portion what that says. while school closures and ongoing child care challenges have substantially burdened parents and children alike, they do not appear to be a meaningful driver of slow employment recovery. this means factors responsible for the slow employment recovery and depressed labor supply are issues not exclusively related to struggles of working parents such as the continued concern about the threat of getting covid-19 at work or expanded unemployment insurance benefits and eligibility. so they may not want to admit it, but it has been obvious from

the finishing you shovel trillions of dollars, thousands of dollars a month into people's pockets not to go to work, it will create a problem. emily: you talked about a shell game, this is the same ongoing narrative shell game where the administration says the highest group of people underrepresented in workforce are people of color, owning small businesses, 65% of them are out of work or took losses. they fail to note the major reason why which was the lockdowns. it was complete failure to address the actual root causes to use a phrase this administration loves of actually why there has been these economic failures, why the consequences of their actions and their decisions beginning with first and foremost the lockdown and of course exacerbated by all of us throwing in our taxpayer's money. just quickly tie in as well our last topic, everyone pays their taxes that go towards the programs. we talk about the federal government spending, that is our tax dollar spending that is our money being spent. it is not different than what

the federal government owns. as you know they consider each dollar of our income as their quote, lost income. will: right. biden era economist. we've done the research. i'm sorry, obama era economist. we've done the research. it is not people staying home because they don't have child care. not fears of return to work because of covid-19. extended unemployment keep people from working. listen to business owners. talk to americans out there, they will tell you exactly what is going on. this is vick a owner of a restaurant in new jersey. he will tell you why he is having trouble hiring. >> we own five restaurants in new york and new jersey. currently i could hire 100 people in every aspect of the business from chefs to cooks, to pizza makers, to bartenders to, servers right down the line and we've run ads on indeed and facebook, culinary agents,

anywhere you could run an ad to hire people and out of the 100 people we need, we've hired seven new people. i mean this is tragic n my 30 years in business i have never, ever seen anything like this. pete: you have to work really hard not to understand this obvious fact. you really do have to actively avoid business owners of every industry not to hear. this the hard part for conservatives often time, talking about the hidden hand of capitalism how it works is often more difficult than giving somebody a check, standing at podium, we're here from the government, here to rescue you with a bunch of money, giving argument, reopen, take away incentive not to work? they have to be better to make the case. emily: especially the check is not their money. our money. makes it easier. will: avoid with every person out there, check your common sense at the door, that is how hard you have to work not to understand this issue. turning to a few additional headlines starting with a

fox news alert. overnight several people are hurt in a mass shooting in new jersey. at least one person died. police say gunfire broke out at a massive house party with more than 100 guests. it is unclear what led up to the shooting. this is developing story. we'll keep you updated throughout the morning. another fox news alert, a suspect shows no signs of remorse being arrested in connection to this brutal attack after jewish man in times square. prosecutors say he would quote, have no problem doing it again. that is a quote from the suspect. the man is charged with several hate crimes in the attack of joseph borgen, who says he has a concussion, bruising all over his body. police are still looking for these men wanted in the attack. we're one step closer this morning to sending tourists to space. virgin galactic launched its third successful spaceflight yesterday. the company's rocket powered plane carrying two pilots soared into the upper atmosphere.

virgin atlantic is expected to start with paying customers first of next year. virgin galactic sold tickets to more than 600 people. the cost? around $200,000. those are the headlines. a lot of rich people ready to go to space. emily: not bad for a ticket to space. pete: if i had $200,000 laying around, totally would do that. will: that is where i have 200,000 of discretionary income. pete: bitcoin goes to the moon i will take you with me. backlash in coal country under president biden's coal policies. west virginia attorney general patrick morrissey says president biden is putting china first and americans last. ♪. ♪♪ ♪♪

but he doesn't seem to get it. so if americans are looking and trying to figure out what america's energy policy is going to look like in a few years it is going to look a lot like the colonial pipeline week where everything was in disarray. there were long lines at the gas pump, higher gas prices. that's our future if we don't turn it around for the u.s. unfortunately overseas all the action seems to help china and russia. emily: tell us for viewers what the legal recourse would look like and how you see that playing out? >> well now, west virginia, 19 states have gone up to the u.s. supreme court. we filed a petition because we're arguing that the epa doesn't have virtually unlimited authority to regulate in this space and president biden needs to use that area, but if he does it, would have a profound effect on peoples homes, factories, jobs, every aspect of life is going to be touched. we don't think congress ever

delegated powers to the epa of that magnitude. the epa was supposed to be a environmental regulator, not a central energy planning authority. we asked the supreme court to hear this. really to follow up on a d.c. court decision from january. many people following should know this builds on the heels of what we wanted at the supreme court in february of 16 when we obtained a historic stay of the obama clean power plan. unfortunately this is the obama clean power plan times three. we have to make sure we stop it. otherwise it will have a catastrophic effect on the economy. emily: that is exactly right. we can see it playing out already. you're right, vesting broad powers into a regulatory agency is absolutely aren't at this threat call to the confusion -- antithetical and opposed to constitution. attorney general morrissey, thank you for being here. good luck. >> thank you very much. happy sunday. emily: a democratic mayor

about this. story is nine months old but certain city councils are pursuing a process of defunding the police that came before the kansas city council this past week. tell us about it, and why it is happening? >> it was truly a surprise and a very reckless move by our city council and our mayor and it was so proven reckless they didn't even discuss it with four of the council members, nor the police chief, nor the police commission. they put it on the council agenda and rammed it right through. they had nine votes. they knew the four of us that voted no would probably vote no anyway. they still had the votes. they could have discuss it with us. this is back room politics, coming out very shady to me. pete: theresa, what do they think will come of this? they want to defund the police department, effectively tie their hands, make them less effective. what is the sales job for that?

what upside will you get for that? >> there is no upside. they're taking $46 million from the police budget, a third of at budget. which will in turn pull about 4 to 500 police officers off the street. so how that makes us more safe is beyond me. they're talking community service programs. well we have hundreds of those now that we signed. and they're not doing all that much good now, pouring another $46 million into them i'm not sure how that helps. emily: councilwoman, you talk about sort of a unilateral decision, the quality behind closed doors, seattle went through something similar, the irony seattle was 10 years into a consent decree which we know about because attorney generals of the doj who investigate police departments implement the consent decrease to reform the police department that judge overseeing that, you set us all three steps back. it was totally not in line with how the doj oversees reform, how

the community oversees the investment required in police departments. by the way it is not a full defunding that triggers that. it is just a loss of some budget. our mayor there, quinn ton lucas said it won't defund police, trying to defend it but it still has the same effect. watch your reaction on the other side. >> sure. >> this is not taking money from the police department. we're putting it in another organization. instead saying city manager, police cleave h chief, city manager, say we have more crime deprevention. this is opposite of the defund movement. this is more collaboration. emily: your thoughts? >> oh that is just a play on words. of course it is defunding the police. if you take $46 million out of their budget it defunds them and to have the police have to come and ask for money for different programs, it was a 9-4 vote on thursday, i'm sure it continue

to be 9-4 votes. so the money's gone from the police department. that is all i can say. where it will go, to community service and prevention organizations, so we can only imagine what that might be. pete: big ol' umbrella. ultimately if you take money away from something you are defunding it. if they push it through your council without notifying people they clearly didn't want discussion about it either. thank you very much for enlightening us. >> certainly. thank you. pete: good luck. coming up tammy bruce joins us live on set right here.

effectively, horribly actually making things worse, dividing us even more. this story does that in a certain way by not mentioning the riots. making it seem other americans don't care and they decided to be against it. that is shameful. that is not true. we're against the thing that was making things worse, tearing us apart and certainly specifically destroying the lives of people of color in the urban areas of this country. will: i think you're absolutely right. it is not just journalistic malpractice, it is propaganda not to include the word concept or word riots in this article. many fox knewers viewers know this, but do average american know out the difference you pointed out eloquently, black lives matter lower case, black lives matter uppercase? do they understand the political organization behind the movement and therefore withdraw the support. >> that is the real story, will. you got it exactly. that is not what

"the new york times" wrote about. that is the dramatic story, americans with everything going on, all the marketing going on for that kind of a horrible abuse of american general rossty and sensibility is we saw someone becoming a land baron, right, the owner of the founder of this thing. will: right. >> it really was looking at her getting television shows, almost for corporations to become inoculated against being attacked. they don't have to actually address serious issues that people of color face in both the corporate world and socially. this is almost a scheme. but that is the story, that is americans saw it anyway. they listened to some of the reports. they watched what was happening. even if you didn't have the media telling you, it didn't make sense that the cities were burning down but somehow this is supposed to be about improving the quality of black people's lives. clearly not representing the average person of color in this country. will: just a little bit of research to understand the

marxist ideology behind the political movement as you pointed out. therefore the hypocrisy, owning home, taking rental income from homes, patrice colors and other blm leaders. we force america back into segregation, back into tribalism, back into viewing each other through the prism of race, this is real weird story from the nfl. eugene chung he said he was interviewing for a job, asian-american, eugene was, was told by a team that he was the, he was the wrong minority. it was said to me you're really not a minority. i was like, what do you mean i'm not a minority? the interviewer responded you are not the right minority we're looking for. that is when i realized what the narrative was, i was blown away, emotionally paralyzed for a split second, i asked myself did i hear that correctly, tammy? >> that proves the entire point. this is not about elevating

minorities in this country. there are many people on the fringes. as a matter of fact he is korean-american which is about 0.6% of the population. even more after minority than other minorities but you see that is the politics of it. when you elevate everyone, when you have an economy that is good, when you see, make an effort as americans want to, to make sure everyone has the same opportunity, the same kind of, again, not guarranties but opportunities, then everybody does benefit, right? but when it's political, when it is about are you catering to one group because maybe they are a larger minority, or maybe they're organized in a different way, are you catering to union leaders or, or organize, organization leaders who might organize against you. so is this really virtue signaling? is it really about making kind of gestures as opposed to really improving the quality of everyone's lives? will: it is the next evolutional

step looking at each other very shallowly, not according to our merits or ability. >> i would say with the "new york times" story, americans are not going there. we're not going to be bullied there. we'll not turn away from the exploitation of the lives of people of color in this country. we're serious. the left is not. and that is the thing for americans to remember. will: really sharp, really good to see you on set. this is fun. >> thank you, everyone. it is great. we're coming back. will: let's roll it across the planter to pete for the headlines. pete: i will keep clapping like i started this. fantastic as always, tammy. turning to a few headlines, police used pepper bullets to disperse a massive party at huntington beach much thousands of people crowded the area last night. some setting off fireworks. get this the party was organized over tiktok. the post-has since been deleted. >> the nba called out for not

♪. pete: welcome back. a california high school is facing accusations censor ship. the members are wearing organization shirts, pins stickers, with slogans like i heart america, free speech and usa. but at a leadership banquet later on the club says school administrators handed out copies of edited version of the photo

with the chapter's slogans removed. two students from whitney high school turning point chapter join me. blake whitney, is the group's president and fellow member braden. blake, let me start with you, before the photo was taken, there was a fair where there were booths, turning point usa had a booth you were treated differently there as well. >> yes, sir. we set up. we were originally placed in the middle of the amphitheater with all the other clubs. as soon as the stuff was set up, posters, stuff out there, we were moved by the activities director to the corner of amphitheater seen by less students. during the event we were told we could not have students holding poster boards or having a large crowd around our table being too confrontational although the club directly across from us had a basketball hoop playing music. i felt that was biased against my club.

pete: yeah, you think. braden what happened with the picture? any slogans that were truly offensive? >> no. all the stickers said i heart america, usa, freedom of speech. all the stickers were preapproved by the activities director. he knew all the content going out. and then we took the class picture, no more than a couple minutes after that, in between first and second lunch. the picture we got back had none of the stickers in it. >> we feel this photo is visual representation what we've been going through all year with the alienation and bullying of students with conservative values by both students and staff on campus. pete: whit nye high school put out the statement. they said these stickers were removed from the group tote foe honoring group of student body students without any other club affiliation in the spirit, spirit of equity. there is that word again, inclusivety and school unity. is there something inequitable i'm not aware of loving america or usa or free speech?

>> i don't believe so. our turning point usa is basically just a place on campus for students to come together to talk about conservative values, also to give conservative students a voice on campus. we accept everybody in my chapter. there is, it is completely inclusive. so the fact that the school has excluded us from that photo, it is really hurtful. pete: you feel like the administration supports you or are you bullied for being conservative? >> i don't necessarily feel supported but i don't feel not supported either. i don't think the administration bullies us but they don't sport us out there. pete: probably support for other organization. >> thank you. pete: good on you for having courage to speak out there. are a lot more people that support you than you think even not always within the halls or administrators. we appreciate it. >> thank you. pete: patriotic pride, skip bedell shows us the perfect way

first time that we were back to normal here in new york. >> much of the country has got back to normal. i can speak to that with firsthand experience. no threshold has been crossed, no finish line was reached. for new york city, it does begin to feel a little more like normal. you're right, when you can walk along the streets of new york city, see people out, people enjoying not just the weather but an open society, open businesses, lifted rules. something that this place has had a long time coming. jedediah: i think there's a long way to go. we have talked to a lot of small business owners in the area who are hurting for employees. they are still hurting right now for their livelihoods but it's definitely a step in the right direction and hopefully a step in order will be more rapid than the slow start we've had. pete: you know what i want to be rapid, will's food delivery. pay attention. right back here, you seize somebody wondering in with a bag, it's our breakfast. maybe we'll have a live delivery on air. we begin with a fox news

alert. a suspect arrested in connection to this brutal attack of a jewish man in times square. the suspect showing no signs of remorse. prosecutors say he said, quote, he would have no problem doing it again. jedediah: he's charged with several hate crimes in the attack of joseph borgen who has a concussion and bruising all over his body. he's been released from the hospital thankfully and is recovering at home. >> he was guilty of wearing a yamaka in public. across the country, in los angeles, police arrest a suspect in connection to his horrific attack on several jewish men outside an la restaurant last week. so los angeles, miami, new york city, and the only common thread is guilty of being jewish in public, harassed by mobs who are -- who purport to be pro-palestinian as relates to the war that had been going on

over there. but are really anti-semetic. from the blow horn in miami, the guys were yelling we will rape your wife, your dog, dirty jews, this is complete hate grounded in -- they'll couch it by leadership in washington, d.c., the hamas caucus which conflates the two and says we're not anti-semitic, we're just against the jewish state and the terrorism they commit. by saying that, they're opening the door to effectively the targeting of jews and it's really, really unfortunate and dangerous. jedediah: those are two arrests. what about the mobs? what about the arrest of each of those attacks? those were group attacks. what about the 200 anti-semitic attacks and crimes in just two days. we talked about social media, the fact that it accelerates the conflict, we talked about our so-called elected leaders in

congress. it's couched under, quote, objecting pavings by israel -- occupation by israel. he has said he will rethink wearing the yalmaka in public. that is adjusting your faith in the land of religious freedom because attacks are not been condemned by the president or by his party in charge. will: a little earlier pete spoke to the founder of americans against anti-semitism. this is what he had to say about the rhetoric. >> the things like jewish blood is cheap, the saying that you can get away with beating up on people and you don't get the same reaction from the politicians, especially the democrats, especially the extreme left. in fact, i would say that aoc, person person, the rest of -- persony sanders, the rest of the

radical group, defending the population. it's out of control. this is america, for god's sake. >> you mentioned this earlier. since 1948, with president harry true man, -- truman, the united stateses has been a steadfast defender of israel, the first country to recognize the official existence of the state of israel. it was a bipartisan notion that the united states stood beside israel. it doesn't seem to be a unifying notion within the democratic party anymore as you heard from doug hikeen. as you hear voices elevate it, it puts into question what is the democratic policy party going to be about israel going forward. senator ted cruze intends to get them on the record with a piece of legislation this week. >> next week i'm introducing a

resolution to approve the arm sales and i'm going to fight for a vote. there's a lot of democrats in the senate who say i don't agree with that anti-semitic language from the squad. let's decide if you're willing to send weapons to support israel or if you're going to go to the anti-israel left, you need to own it. i hope we're going to have a vote next week and decide which side of the line everyone stands on. >> the last thing supporters of israel want is to crumbling of the bipartisan consensus you talked about. it's fundamental to their security. we share a civilly united civil. representative doesn't exist in the rejorntion but for the state of israel, where jews, christians and muslims can worship and pray. there's so much misinformation about what happened on top of

the temple mount. it's always been a site where jews should be allowed to worship at. all the dynamics are mischaracterized to make it look like our allies in israel is the bad guy and a vote like that will tell you a lot. the arms sale was going to be automatic. it wasn't because of so much of joe biden's base on the left is anti-israel. it's like the marxism and socialism, it was allowed to fester. now it's made its way into the faculty and elected members in congress and those are the ones with energy, pressing joe biden, pressing chuck schumer who had been a staunch defender of israel. he can't afford to be open about his support of israel. he's condemned on twitter a couple times, get away from anti-semetic fate. in the past he would have held a

press conference, saying this will not stand but he's not doing us because we know where the power is on the far left. jedediah: all of the false narrative and mischaracterization has led to the false equivalency between a sovereign state who is oural liy and a terrorist organization. that fissure in the democratic party has gone back over a decade and now for some reason it is frankly being celebrated by especially the progressive left. speaking of narratives, we have interestingly in the continued discussion as well of big tech and its censoring of not only conservatives but apparently of support of law enforcement and first responders. we spoke earlier with michelle russell who is part of loaded can non distillery, a member of the team there. she had an ad for a police fund raising, first responder.

the proceeds would go there. they got a response from facebook, that said your ad may have been rejected if it mentioned politicians or sensitive social issues that may impact the outcome of an election or pending legislation. >> this is a brewery in florida that is brewing some beer that they want to give a proceed of the sale to law enforcement to honor them and facebook per their policy is not allowing them to do so? >> the only thing you got wrong was they brewed bourbon in addition to beer. you used to believe this was a unifying concept, that we could get behind law enforcement. you said, quote, sensitive social issues. we can't believe support for law enforcement is a sensitive political issue. i think something important, you said this earlier, you're damn right we want to increase public opinion and support of law

enforcement. if that's sensitive at this moment in time, we've lost our way. >> if we can't live in a country where you're allowed to say black lives matter but you're not allowed to say blue lives matter, that's what's happened here. and so we had michelle russell, the director of the loaded can non distillery on the program earlier. this what is she said. >> there is nothing controversial, nothing political about anything take we're doing. we're just trying to support our community because during this hard, trying year that everybody has gone through, we're launching the series because they are legends, all of them, first responders, emts, police, firefighter, anybody that wears a badge and they deserve recognition and that's all we're doing. they've done so much for us. the charity we're working with, the supporters of law enforcement. pretty much all of the proceeds will go back to them and 2% of every one of our first responder series will go back to the first

responders. jedediah: in new orleans, the event between police officers and the zoo was canceled by the audubon society, an event to bring kids out to meet the police officers, a community event at the zoo, it was canceled because they thought it would be a, quote, trigger for the community, the sensitive social issues. we're getting the the same explanation but here they're blocking even the advertisement for it. when will there be a realization that police are part of the community, there's no triggering to the community, they are our community and that serve to protect and serve at the same time. absolutely ludicrous. and who is speaking for us who is speaking for the community members that want to see the ads, that want to partake in the community involvement events, that want to drink the beer to support the blue line and we also cover, for example, the little girl that dresses up as a school officer because she looks up to her. where that is? >> they certainly don't feel like political leadership is supporting them.

i can speak to the 50 men and women that i met yesterday, i was filming for memorial day. we had fire and police there. we got a chance to talk for hours and they said we can't do anything. we get acosted, we get screamed at. if we get assaulted, the expectation is we don't do anything back. everything we arrest for we get downgraded. it's demoralizing and it's not getting better any time soon. you better honor the people that are still willing to do that job. >> every time i think i met a high bar, he raises it. we reached out to facebook for a statement. we have not heard back from them yet. we turn to a few additional headlines. overnight, several people are hurt in a mass shooting in new jersey, at least one person died. police say gunfire broke out at a massive house party with more than 100 guests. it's unclear what led up to the shooting. this is a developing story. we'll continue to update you as

>> i will soon sign an executive order, establishing a national commission to promote patriotic education. it will be called the 1776 commission. it will encourage our educators to teach our children about the miracle of american history. >> that was president trump announcing his 1776 commission last year to promote patriotic education which of course the biden white house revoked on day one. but the group isn't letting biden dismiss their mission, with plans to resume operations tomorrow amid the rise of critical race theory in america's schools, dr. carol

swain is the commission's vice chair and she joins us now. doctor, thanks so much. when i read this, it was new particular to my ears. it's wonderful to hear the commission is back together and meeting. what are you going to be doing? >> well, we never ceased the operations, even though we were abolished by the federal government, we continued to work and in march of this year we released the report with the introduction and also with citations and so there is a book that people can purchase about the 1776 report. and when we meet on monday, we will be strategizing about how to combat the critical race theory that is really destroying our nation. >> when you strategize, what do you anticipate are the main avenues of approach to address this problem which seems to be getting worse and worse? >> well, i think that the members of the commission, we

have different spears of influence and different audiences and so we will each continue what we do individually but we will also work as a group. and until we actually meet on monday, i'm not at liberty to speak for everyone else. but i do know that we care deeply about america and what's taken place and we see critical race theory affecting our k-12 schools, the u.s. military, our agencies of government, our churches, there isn't a sphere that's not affected by what's taken place and our goal is to fight for the true history of america so that young people will understand the nation's founding, its flaws, as well as the successes we have had working together across racial and ethnic lines. >> i look forward to hearing and seeing what the commission comes up with going forward. real quick, we don't have much

time. for a parent out there who is wondering whether this is in the classroom, stuff like 1619 theory and critical race theory, what should they be looking for? >> first of all, it's there. it comes under the guise of educational equity and the language sounds great but educational equity is not equal opportunity and there's a move to remove the gifted classes, the ap classes, there's mathmatics that argues that math -- there's no right or wrong answers. and so mostly it talks about equality but it's not equality in the traditional sense. it's really talking about equity. and so they should look for subtle changes in language. it sounds great but it's very destructive and their children often will come home if you're white really ashamed, being bullied in the classroom, teachers are being intimidated.

it is in just about every school system including many of the christian schools. >> dr. carol swain, report back to us on what you guys strategerize about. we look forward to hearing it. coming up, senator from alabamaa joins us live, next. new projects means new project managers. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do. when you sponsor a job, you immediately get your shortlist of quality candidates, whose resumes on indeed match your job criteria. visit indeed.com/hire and get started today.

>> not a lot of common sense, to be honest with you. especially in washington, d.c. this empowering law enforcement act that i put forth, basically they cut the lets out of i.c.e. -- legs out of i.c.e. apprehensions are down almost 70%, with the influx of migrants coming in, that's ridiculous. we want to power local and state law enforcement. which now they don't have jurisdiction, but give them authority to work with i.c.e., to do what they need to do, to apprehend and extend the 180 day period. right now if we catch somebody for murder, rape, child molestation, something like that, we can't hold them after 180 days. after 180 days we have to turn them out, free people, which will be in the united states, not outside the country. >> it makes other law enforcement agency's jobs all the more difficult and dangerous dangerous.

we want to ask you about an op-ed, it's jar, it says i'll keep pensions safe from communism. what do you mean by that. >> this time last year, president trump and larry cud low sent a letter saying we won't empower china with investing $700 billion of the military's pension plan and citizens that work for the government. $700 million they were going to invest in china businesses. china businesses, they don't play by the rules. they commit corporate espionage. they violate u.s. sanctions and they don't comply with basic audit and regulatory standards. we do not want to empower the military of china. they're our adversary, our enemy. they're growing every day. it's ridiculous we would put any pension fund money into china. we need to make sure that we send a clear message of zero tolerance towards chinese aggression and if we don't do

that, then we're going to be way behind the game when it comes to keeping up with their economy and their military. >> two bills coming forward this week. see you how those progress. wish you the best of luck. thank you so much. >> thank you. >> still ahead, one of the nation's largest teachers' unions say children need to keep wearing masks in school, even if they aren't vaccinated, they still have the mask up, even if the science doesn't back it up. we'll talk to dr. nicole sapphire and a panel of parents, next. ♪ it's my 5:52 woke-up-like-this migraine medicine. it's ubrelvy. for anytime, anywhere migraine strikes, without worrying if it's too late, or where i am. one dose can quickly stop my migraine in its tracks within two hours. unlike older medicines, ubrelvy is a pill that directly blocks cgrp protein, believed to be a cause of migraine.

do not take with strong cyp3a4 inhibitors. most common side effects were nausea and tiredness. ask about ubrelvy. the anytime, anywhere migraine medicine.

>> one of the nation's largest teachers unions insisting kids s continue to wear masks in school until they're all vaccinated. >> leer to react is -- here to react is massachusetts mom, maris little and author of a new book, panic attack, dr. nicole saphier. maris. what do you think of this, your kids can't go back into class maskless until they're vaccinated? >> i have a lot of thoughts on that. to start with, where were masks during the flu? our kids have a higher rate of death from the flu than from covid, so i'm curious as to why they weren't wearing masks for the last 50 to 100 years for the

flu. is there a liability if my child has to get the covid vaccine to attend school, who is responsible if something happens to my child when they get the covid vaccine? and for the union head, randy weingarden, i want to know why is she telling me how to parent my child, why isn't she just concerned about educating my child. >> the issue of liability, i can give you the answer. the pharmaceutical companies and government have liability immunity when it comments to the covid-19 -- comes to the covid-19 vaccine. dr. saphier, you heard maris talk about the science, she's backed up when it comes to the science about the flu. we know about children's vulnerability for covid. why the push. >> the perceived level of threat for covid-19 for our

children is not backed up by reality. i hate to break it to the teachers' union right now. the cdc came out with a new cross-sectional report on friday that showed the biggest reduction of viral transmission is when masks are worn by the teachers and staff and by improved ventilation and when children were given the opportunity to wear masks, that reduction in viral transmission was actually not statistically significant. that just adds to more evidence that we know that young children are not the drivers when it comes to transmitting the virus, they've been on the lowest part of people increasing infection rates so i don't believe the emergency is in the young children. i think the fda should not expand the vaccine under the eua for young children. i think it is prudent for them to go through the full fda approval for the young children. i think in no way, shape or form does the science tell us that for children to go back to school they need to be vaccinated or of wearing masks. i can tell you the science says

the exact opposite. >> so why the push? why all the focus on children. let's bring in another parent, michael is a father as well. michael, thank you for joining us here now. what do you think of the push to have children either vaccinated or masked? >> i've always believed in medical freedom. i think the parents know best and it's up to us parents to make the choice in terms of what's the most appropriate thing. fundamental health decisions to government officials. we really need to have personal responsibility, personal accountability. >> these are some of the same politicians, the same government officials that shut down schools for, in many places, for over a year. and now we're learning the cost of some of those shutdowns. take a look at this, this is according to a recent study. we're expected in one projection a 3.6% decrease in gdp by 2050 and 3.5% decrease in hourly wages by 2050.

that's the cumulative effect, the downstream effect of keeping kids out of school, putting them behind the curve of learning in the past year. what they're essentially talking about is your and my children. >> correct. yes. i feel for parents so much right now because i have been lucky enough to have been able to home school. what about all the parents who rely on public schools every day to keep their job? i mean, where are they? and now their children are suffering because they were backed into a corner, they had no choice and they had to basically go along with whatever their district was doing, whether they liked it or not. >> dr. saphier, again, i think this illustrates that what we've done a poor job is balancing all of the competing interests, mental health, obesity and the economic and learning effect on our children as well. >> well, will, we need to get out of the tunnel vision. it is not only about reducing covid-19 transmission. what it is about is making sure

that america is the strongest it can possibly be. only two thirds of school are back full-time in person and we have seen the negative consequences that have come from such actions, mental health, physical health, substance abuse. it's taking its toll of. children need to be back in school now. it should not be contingent on wearing masks or being vaccinated. >> thank you all for weighing in on this this morning. >> thank you. >> let's head over to pete for more headlines. pete: turning to your headlines. tomorrow marks two years since the disappearance of connecticut mother jennifer duloss, her family releasing a statement saying although this past year has slowed the process, the investigation into jennifer's death and disappearance is john going. after the courts reopen the two people charged with conspiracy to murder will stand trial. the girlfriend of jennifer's late husband and his attorney are both charged in connection to her disappearance.

jedediah: welcome back. phil mickelson is aiming to golf championship history by being the oldest player to win a major as he holds a narrow lead heading into the final rounds of the pga tour. >> i'm playing really well. i have an opportunity to contend for a major championship on sunday. i'm having so much fun that it's easier to stay in the present and not get ahead of myself. i felt hi a very clear -- i had a very clear picture on every shot and i've gone swinging the club well and i've been executing. jedediah: the commissioner of the bar stool classic joins us now. welcome to you and, okay, so we have one day left and as phil said, he's trying to stay in the present but do you think he's going to get it done and become the oldest player to win a major. >> well, it's an awesome story line. phil has got four majors -- five

majors. anything could happen. i would love to see phil get it done. so who knows. he also could go out and shoot -- he could shoot 65 or he could shoot 80. that's the beauty of phil. should be a lot of fun today. jedediah: the other thing about him, he really plays cool. do you see boots on the ground there a swell of support for him from the crowd and do you think that's going to influence him in any way as we head down the final stretch? >> yeah, phil's a fan favorite. he'll be out there giving 1,000 thumbs up the entire day. and only the way that phil mickelson can. he's a huge fan favorite. he'll have a lot of the crowd behind him. i think he relishes that. pga championship delivers. it gets a little bit of heat as being considered the fourth major a lot but it delivers all the time so i'm pretty pumped. jedediah: every time i've had the extreme pleasure of attending one of the majors, i've always had a blast. bar stool sports has stepped in to save women's golf and they're

hosting a let them play classic for ncaa athletes whose tournament was canceled before they could take a swing, leaving them with a disappointing end to the season two years in a row. why don't you talk to us about that. >> yeah. so they very unfortunately had their seasons ended. for some of them their careers ended in bat baton rouge last week. they were supposed to advance to the championships in the scottsdale area. they got a bunch of rain. folks didn't step up that a lot of people think could have and get them on the golf course and allow them to play. the last couple days in the afternoons it was 80 and sunny. even though the course was wet, a lot of players thought they should have been able to play. they couldn't. it was canceled. a lot of people had questions. that led to a viral video of one of the most ridiculous announcements in the history of

announcements on a staircase in baton rouge where they said the course was playable but not playable on a championship level. the girls were screaming let us play. they obviously wanted to play golf. they were sent home, the top six seeds automatically advanced, the bottom were left hanging with no answers. we decided to try to step up and give them something to play for. jedediah: part of the undercurrent story lines in the past year and-a-half is the the impact that it's had on these collegiate athletes where the pro pegs nail prospects -- professional prospects are unfortunately diminished because of this. talk to us about how you think this might affect positively these athletes' futures. >> well, look, you know, the two years in a row hit home with a lot of people. i think a lot of folks around the world feel like we haven't been able to do the things we want to do for the last year and-a-half, since the pandemic hit. a lot of people haven't been allowed to work. that's where the bar stool fundd came from, raising almost $40 million and then we saw in the

college athletes twos greaser a row they weren't able to -- two years in a row they weren'te to play. that hurt a lot, a lot of the girls that didn't come to let them play and had a great time, they took an extra year, a covid year, decided to go back to school so they could finish college golf careers on a high note and instead it was looking like it was going to end in baton rouge and they delayed potentially going professional or delayed a post college job that they had lined up and they were excited for so they could get that last you're ray -- hurrah with their teammates. we wanted to get them that opportunity, playing one last tournament. i'm a bit of a cryer. so seeing the athletes, there were a lot of tears, families were there and it was really awesome to see them go out on a high note and not a parking lot. jedediah: even if you're not a cryer, i think it's hard to maintain a dry eye.

a new photo journal book is sharing ton told stories of american heroes fighting the global war on terror. >> the 20 year war highlights

service and stories of 71 veterans from all branches of the u.s. military. jedediah: here to discuss their new photo journal book, bo simmons, tom and randy. welcome to you three. i've written an endorsement for this beautiful book. i'm honored that some of my family members are in your book, along side 69 other incredible veterans of the 20 year war. why don't you tell us exactly what this book details? >> well, this book is truly about the veterans in it and telling their story from their perspective. it's not necessarily the stories of combat, even though that is in there. it's much more about their stories of triumph and what they've done after service and how they have continued to be successful and be leaders in their community or in their business or in different organizations and just sharing that side of the story to really break down the veteran walls and show that as veterans we're all human. jedediah: and bo, no two

stories are alike. tell us about the diversity and breadth of what we can enjoy in this book. >> oh, man, it's been an incredible journey. i drove personally 16,000 miles across 42 states in less than two months and the diversity of veterans, talking about anyone from first enlisting to four star generals, there's so much diversity in the book, between the veterans that are in it. >> the power of photos t idea that it's imagery as opposed to just words, what do you try to do and how did you choose the photos you highlight? >> so bo's the master photographer and he shoots on film so it's even more of a challenge because he's got four or five and then we would look at them and say that was it, you did such a great job capturing the veterans. we felt really strongly that was more powerful. a picture tells a thousand words, it's a cliche. that's something we get. it's emotional. the words, you have to use 1,000

words to get to it. we wanted to start with the most authentic expression of who they were and the best way to come up with that was through a photo. >> how did you find the stories? choosing the photos is one thing. how did you go about finding the stories. >> the fun thing about it, i was driving a across america twice. i was interviewing veterans either in personal homes or their business or wherever they want to meet in person and i was basically recording their audio on my phone which is being transcribed by tom who is the writer of the book. jedediah: dan, you're an army ranger. talk to us about as well about who the book proceeds benefit. >> there are several organizations we are going to give to but it was a clear choice of who we wanted to give too first. me and tom were both army rangers. we want to give a portion to the ranger foundation, they do work for army rangers, while still

serving and during the transition phase. >> you wrote the stories. how do you know where to start? you've got an image, you've got a story. you could write a book probably about each of the men and women. where do you start? >> well, to start, it was with the questions we wanted to have some structure to give the reader a little bit of whose these people were but also sort of figure out what thread to pull at so we started with why did you choose to serve? everyone has a very interesting and sort of unique take on why they did. one of our veterans was even like yeah, i saw a thing about pablo esco bar and i wanted to fight drug dealers. the experience is so different for every individual in the book, even guys that were in the same unit, we have different experiences. then it was what the transition was like and what they're doing now and like dan said, thriving and being vibrant in the world these days.

>> bo, dan, tom, really cool project. thank you so much for telling us about this this morning. >> thank sow much. >> thank you so much. >> thank you very much. >> coming up, we'll be live from the san diego zoo as more coronavirus restrictions are relaxed in that state and that's ahead of memorial day weekend. >> the dolphins are glad not to have masks on anymore. ♪ if you have moderate to severe psoriasis, little things can become your big moment. that's why there's otezla. otezla is not a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. with otezla, 75% clearer skin is achievable. don't use if you're allergic to otezla. it may cause severe diarrhea, nausea or vomiting. otezla is associated with an increased risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts or if these feelings develop. some people taking otezla reported weight loss. your doctor should monitor your weight and may stop treatment. upper respiratory tract infection

many workers as there used to be to fill the jobs. what you heard from the administration, especially when the job numbers came out, it was down -- it was only 250,000, they've been trying the to provide all these reasons other than people are staying home because they're getting paid to stay home. well, usually their economists will back them up or find a way to rationalize they'll. sometimes they end up telling the truth accidentally. here's an economist from the obama administration, a biden friendly economist, here's the headline, he's creating a big headache for the president's spending plan. here's what the economist is arguing. while school closures and child care challenges have burdened parents and children, they don't appear to be a meaningful driver of the slow employment recovery. this means that the factors responsible for the slow employment recovery and depressed labor supply are issues that are not exclusively

related to struggles of working parents such as continued concern about the threat of covid-19 at work or, this is a big one, expanded unemployment insurance benefits and eligibility, sometimes it takes a while, guys. but the admission is there, when you pay people, they may not go back to work. jedediah: i love when you say tell the truth accidentally. it reminds me when the cdc director came out and was saying if you are vaccinated you don't have to wear a mask and the white house said she was speaking in her personal capacity. i can't wait for the explanation like that, telling the truth accidentally because of analysis, i think it's pretty clear in terms of masks what economic drivers are leading people to stay home. earlier we spoke with someone who had 100 spaces to fill and he can only get seven, an owner of a new jersey restaurant and he said he spent thousands to try to get people to come into work. he has family members in with them because they can't get

people to come to work because they're being paid to stay home it's not rocket science. >> we don't honestly in the end need that kind of in-depth economic analysis. we can talk directly to americans who are telling you why they're having trouble getting people to come to work. the owner of a restaurant in new jersey, here's what he had to say. >> we own five restaurants in new york and new jersey. currently i could hire 100 people in every aspect of the business, from chefs to cooks, to pizza makers to bartenders to servers, right down the line. we've run ads on indeed and facebook, culinary agents, anywhere you could run an ad to hire people and out of the 100 people that we need, we've hired seven new people. this is tragic. in my 30 years in business, i've never, ever seen anything like it. >> there's this study that came out this week, i found this pass

fascinating. an la times columnist wrote about this. that lockdowns ended up not hurting the economy. here's what the analysis revealed. you don't have to be in business to be in business was their conclusion which is so absurd, it's when you've done research and you've become smart that you're stupid. all you need is a little bit of common sense or talk to average people, like the business owner, they're telling you why people aren't coming into work, they're telling you why they can't get people hired. you have to try really hard to insulate yourself not to find a business owner in any industry that will tell you to your face i can't hire workers because the government is paying them as much as i would pay them. i'm raising wages, i'm adjusting hours. you don't have to have the same skill set. i can't people to come inside my door. there's a certain subset of people that are just that insulated and they're at the u.s. capitol and we pay their salaries and they dole out

government money. you know what town is do you doing greatright now, washingto. there's plenty of great government employees. but if your world view is the capitol, if your world view is government, then you can make that -- i didn't see the article but you could make that insane argument. don't worry, our economy is awash with stimulus money. people have money, therefore the economy hasn't suffered. if you're a collectiveist. if you love big government, that makes sense. talk to one business owner. remember when nancy went out and said don't worry about covid, here i am in whatever part of san francisco. just go talk to business owners and ask them how easy it is to find somebody right now. >> keep in mind the ongoing burden that these guys have. they're spending money on advertising. they have to cut the hours because they don't have staff to keep up with demand. this is on top of how many fines were levied that couldn't afford to close during the lockdown.

the costs keep mounting up. there's been no relief for them. if the accidental truth comes out, maybe the administration might take different steps. >> on another topic, when president trump ran for president, he unveiled make america great again. it stuck because people felt that way. they wanted a return and a comeback for our country. there's a slogan for a candidate in washington state that sounds like it's absurd but it fits exactly with the environment we're in right now. it's matt larkin, a congressional candidate. this is a statement he made to fox news channel. listen to this. he said there's a failure of left wing prosecutors to pursue charges against criminals and it makes us all feel unsafe. they refuse to prosecute crime. i'm running on a platform of make crime illegal again. i can only pray we don't see another summer of love which is what they had to endure out there on the west coast which was anything but love. think about the idea that someone's running to say crimes

on the books should be enforced and when you don't enforce them you're making illegality effectively legal so let's try to make crime illegal again. >> you're running on the platform of i will fulfill my position description. i will do the job. there's an important component to our system, our justice system in the united states which includes defense counsel, the roles of judges and jurors. now that we have prosecutors that have taken prosecutorial discretion to a another other level, they're not doing their job. they prioritize the rights of the defendants, the rights of the progressive left, the vocal minority over those of the victims and over those of the community, will. will: you're talking about laws like illegal immigration, prosecutorial discretion, like you talked about in los angeles with the da out there. you're talking about vagrancy laws when it comes to homelessness. we've seen that story play out this week. lawrence jones have done wonderful pieces from los

angeles and seattle. what you're talking about is the rule of law being throughouted over and -- flouted over and over again. they're talking about making crime illegal again. it might resonate. >> tell that to the two police officers outside of fox news channel right now or the dozens of guys i spoke to yesterday. all they're asking for is to be empowered to enforce the laws take are actually on the books that were passed in our republic by representative leaders who are meant to reflect the people and the kind of security and safety, basic opportunities they want in their lives. when you don't enforce the rule of law, it hurts the most vulnerable people the most. that's the cycle it perpetuates. we're seeing it in the democrat run cities where lawlessness is the new norm. >> i just named three. there are still the he defund the police movement, the rising crime in large cities, the homicide rates are up. everywhere you look, you do see this idea that the rule of law is no longer a rule. >> it almost feels like a

deconstruction. >> it's a deconsistent deconstruction andprestructurine society should look like. the summer of love, that's referencing the chop zone which was the anti-authority, complete autonomous zone which was 15 blocks from where i lived in seattle and remember the small businesses in that zone, remember the people that begged for help, that tried to call law enforcement, tried to call for help from everything from crimes when their businesses were being destroyed, to protection, to lobbying the mayor to say let us actually conduct our business. we saw from every end of the spectrum the community pleading for help to deaf ears, falling on deaf ears. remember who had to clean it up? it was the city employees. they had to clean up how dirty and disgusting it was. it was beyond atrocious. it was platessed over as --

plated over as a summer of love. it was anything but. >> there is a sincere deconstruction afoot. the deeper conversation, the one i'm not sure we have a complete answer to yet, what is the you'd utopic image they're hoping to reconstruct in its place. >> it's always progress, will. progress. will: turning to your headlines. the man accused of kidnapping and killing a 4-year-old was allegedly seen near the boy's house weeks before the abduction. the daily beast reporting a neighbor's surveillance footage shows darien brown opening a backyard fence and looking in. he was later found on camera taking cash from his bed. the boy was found dead on the side of the road. brown is facing multiple charges. overnight, iran ends an agreement allowing surveillance images of the nuclear site. the international atomic energy

>> well, the cease fire between israel and the terrorist group hamas still in place for the fired day as foreign aid begins trickling into the gaza trip. here with an update, israeli defense force spokesman, lieutenant colonel john konrik us. you've been in the middle of this. god mess you, what the idf has been doing. there's been a lot of mischaracterization, a lot of northerly ebbing vein sis --

moral equivalency. if you had a message, what would it be? >> good morning. my message would be to our biggest ally, our only ally in the world is that do not reward hamas with the prize. do not get confused with what happened on the ground, who started this, and do not forget which country is a democracy, which country is fighting against an evil jihadi terrorist organization and don't forget who is firing deliberately at civilians, all of those bad things are done by hamas. we're defending ourselves. we're using the latest and best american weapons to do so and we are very happy with our capability to target those terrorists. >> lieutenant colonel, hamas has declared victory, at least that's what they're saying in their propaganda. what do you say is the result of your military efforts over the last two weeks? >> well, that's no surprise. we knew even on the first day of

fighting that no matter how hard we would hit hamas, they at the end, like all terrorists do, would of declare victory and i don't think that's how they feel today. i think that there's probably a lot of reckoning, a lot of different after-action review that hamas, their seniors have to make because as they now come up from the tunnels that they hid in during these 11 days of fighting and meet the civilians that they are responsible for, they now see the magnitude of the destruction of their military infrastructure and they have to face the anger of the civilians in terms of what happened to the gaza strip and what they, hamas leaders, brought upon gaza and now for the first time since 2008. those are severe things. one thing is what they say outwardly and bluster, another thing is what they know internally. i think as the days will pass, we will see what kind of damage and a how many military casualties hamas and the other

terrorists sustained and according to our estimate, it is not an insignificant number. we're talking about a lot of dead terrorists. >> lieutenant colonel, you're in tel aviv, a city that has its population in bunkers, because of the missile threat, more than you've ever dealt with. we have news this morning that iran, not only is it enriching further but they're not allowing inspections anymore as well. talk to me about the connection with iran and hamas' capabilities. >> nothing of what happened over the last 11 days would have been possible without iranian knowledge, funding, expertise, and hands-on involvement on the ground. iranian specialists, engineers and people who deal in rocketry and explosives have been educating and telling hamas engineers how to produce rockets, how to produce rockets and how to manufacture their own

weapons. had it not been for that very specific and detailed iranian intervention, we wouldn't have been in the situation now and something that we focused on a lot was to degrade these capabilities, both in terms of the locations where they produce the weapons, the rockets and also in terms of the key personnel, the terrorists, the engineers that are behind all of the rockets that have been fired throughout israel. it's very clear, iranian fingerprints are all over the situation in terms of money, knowledge, personnel and energy spent and that's, again, big picture when the most important countries around the world are thinking about negotiating with iran. people need to remember, the iranians are the number one exporters of instability and terror and death and destruction in the middle east and they should be addressed and held accountable as such. >> lieutenant colonel jonathan konrikus there are millions of americans keeping the idf and israeli people in our prayers and thoughts.

tell us about elephants being added to the endangered species list. >> this is a day we utilize to help raise awareness for many species facing extinction. the recent studies on the african elephant show there are two species. the forest african elephants numbers have declined over the last decades. when you look at them as one complete species, seems like there's enough numbers to sustain a whole population. also, it creates an opportunity for us to study one of those and feel that we know and understand both. now with the knowledge that there's two separate species, we know that each population is in peril and needs to be studied separate. >> i talk to us about the international efforts, especially those spearheaded by the san diego zoo, to combat poaching and the illegal

international trade for illicit items that in part these animals are hunted for. >> a lot of times people say if animals are going to go earning, just let it be. a lot of times it's do you to human interaction. elephants are poached quite a bit. we were hoping to have elephants in the shot, they're hanging out over heemplet the poaching that -- over here. the poaching that occurs is for our tusks. the youngsters have smaller tusks. the large adults in africa have beautiful tusks, they're hunted strictly for that, all for decoration and ornaments only. the work we do, working with communities around the world including there in kenya, in africa, we work with anti-poaching you units and with an elephant orphanage where we help studies on milk for the little ones, to better understand what the elephant

orphans need for diet and nutrition while they're growing. >> those are beautiful animals, rick. i would love to chat about zoos and the extent to which they're open. i see you're wearing a mask. it's outside. are people going there, do they have to wear masks? is it fully reopened? what's the status for kids? >> the rules are constantly changing. we're very excited to note that california will be completely open on june 15th right now is the plan and as we move toward that date more restrictions are coming off. we wear a mask to help prevent any chance of anything being transferred to the animals. things are changing quickly in california. we're excited to welcome people back. we're open and people have been visiting. >> that june 15th date, that's something coming from the statee of california? >> correct, it's a statewide notification that's come out. we're all very excited about it. we're looking forward to this

[lazer beam and sizzling sounds] ♪♪

it's one of the world's most famous stages, the globe theater in london where shakes spears' most -- shakespeare's most well-known plays were first performed. there's a project which is called racialized dynamics in his words. one professor tied to the project is arguing in connection with other plays this language is everywhere, the language oval darkness and light, the racial elements. british author douglas murray is here to react. douglas, always love having you on the program, you bring such a

voice of reason to an insane time in history and here we arrive at another one of those moments in history. shake spears must be -- shakespeare must be decolonized, explain how it makes any sense whatsoever. >> i can't because it makes none. this is just the latest target of the people who have come out, mainly i have to say from america, people like abraham kennedy who declared everyone must become actively anti-racist, that's what they say, actively anti-racist and decolonize all of world history and literature. the latest target is william shake spears. the -- shakespeare. the academic said this language, this is the language of shakespeare, this language is all over the place, the language of dark and light.

i would bet that four centuries from now nobody will be reading or listening to the works of this particular professor. they will still be listening to the works of william shakespeare. but he is under assault at the moment by incredibly low grade academics playing the same boring racialized game that everyone else is being expected to play in this era. >> douglas, but this type of low rate professor and intellect seems to be a dime a dozen and seems to be driving so much of the cultural movement of the moment. here is my question to you. what's the end game as we tear down everything in culture and society, from statues to shakespeare, what's the end game? >> the end game is for the race hucksters to declare themselves victors. that's the aim. they want to pull down everything from civilization and declare themselves the winner and they will call themselves the world leading anti-racist.

they've gone for shakespeare. a few months ago we had chaucer. ted hughes allegedly had a four bearer four centuries earlier in favor of the slave trade. he turned out not to be an ancestor of ted hughes. they are rifling through our history, insulting everyone, defaming everyone with a low grade, base game they play. the academics for shakespeare, they're looking for references to light and darkness and saying this is racialized. we can't have this. they noted there's some characters in shakespeare are black. what are you going to do with that? are you going to decide you can never perform othello?

if you do you will rob us and future generations some of the great gems and jewels of our heritage. >> douglas murray, great perspective, great context on the effort to tear down not just our history but our present and future as well. douglas, great to talk with you. >> a great pleasure. >> pete, over to you. pete: turning to headlines. the murder trial for the illegal i'm grant accused of killing molly tibbets will resume tomorrow. she was accused of -- prosecutors say he confessed to the crime. the defense is expected to argue the confession was false and coerced after hours of interrogation. and billionaire bill gates is spotted out in public for the first time since announcing his divorce from me linda gates. he was seen out and about in manhattan yesterday in pictures aand the by the daily mail.
