likely in russia. >> do you think putin is testing you? >> no. they sense weakness and trying to see how much they get away with it. >> daddy teaches you can be anything in this world that you can be. doesn't daddy teach you that yeah and it doesn't matter if you are black or white. >> this is how children think right here. critical race theory wants to end that ♪ life is a highway ♪ i want to ride it all night long ♪ lawrence: that's a shot of houston, texas, god's country. i'm lawrence jones in for steve today. we have brian and ainsley. it's thursday, the day before friday. ainsley: that's right. so good to have you here lawrence and brian. brian: nice of lawrence to add us at the last minute. glad to make the cut. fantastic. george p. bush will be on in a little while to build on the texas theme. is he try be be the big announcement yesterday. big republican.

ainsley: he hinted around when you interviewed him in texas recently. brian: because the attorney general is under so much execute any because of some of his practices and his workers quit there are some allegations there. so he has some political problems. lawrence: i talked with an aide before he announced yesterday. they are excited they aren't going to get dirty. they have said. the big question is who will donald trump support the former president support in that race there will be a lot of action in that race. brian: absolutely. ainsley: buzzfeed got ahold of dr. fauci's emails from last year. we have been sorting through them all and there are emails that we wanted to share with you. this is one, an email to dr. fauci about gain of function research. it says the paper you sent me says the experiments were performed before the gain of function pause but has since been reviewed and approved by nih. not sure what that means since emily is sure that no coronavirus work has gone through the p 3 framework. she will try to determine if we have any distant at as to this work abroad.

so it sounds like they might be panicking that the gain of function research in china might have contributed, our money might have contributed to covid brian brain i'm pretty amazed at some of these emails and how candid they were behind the scenes about the genesis of this and what little they were telling us. and i'm also stunned and we will get to this shortly about how the other networks say hey, anthony fauci you are even better than we thought. are you kidding me? to me this makes him look so political that i think he should have removed himself right away and say i'm so involved with the wuhan lab. i have given money to so many people on the outside i will step back and let someone step forward that is not so commingled and also makes you think about what he said to our guests coming up next hour. senator rand paul denying so many things said it turns out he was very concerned about. lawrence: that's interesting, brian. we talked about this yesterday. rand paul said i told you so. i can't wait to see the media try to spin the fauci foia email

the interesting thing i find these doctors to be condescending to us the american public and us the media who ask questions. we saw the emails going back and forth. we are not crazy. there was speculation on this. it is okay to say, look, this may be a theory but we don't know yet. they didn't do that they said whatever you are thinking this is just speculation. this is a crazy fringe theory and the nih director that was on with martha mccallum yesterday he said that the reason why they dismissed this is because people were accusing this of being a lining weapon, again, we don't know if it's a biological weapon or not. it seems like they had no curiosity. meanwhile there was emails going back and forth the entire time, ainsley. ainsley: january 31st one email from the health scientists she says the virus engineered

and fauci saying it looks like it developed naturally. fauci advising people masks were not all that effective and later as you know he supported the national mask mandate. brian: there was a flurry of emails going back and forth showing what was going on behind the scenes was settled and not a spin. not according to other networks. buzzfeed put together the request got these emails public said this anthony emails reveal pressure fell on one man and this from cnn. thousands of emails from and to interest fauci reveal the weight that came with his role as a rare source of honesty within the trump administration covid-19 task force. i mean, how frustrating is that but you are not asking opinion, all they have to do if they read through these emails and watch the a block of our show yesterday, most of the shows on the channel, if you looked at sean's show, tucker's show, laura's show. we were just showing the full screen of these emails. as an american citizen or a global citizen, you have to be

concerned because so many in power were not letting us know exactly what was going on. we know we were caught with our pants down. we know we did not have the right tests and did not know the virus was about to hit us. we know our leading scientists told news february it's not going to be a problem here. it didn't stop nicolle wallace of msnbc, former bush staffer from saying this to anthony fauci and i think on a level that doctor has to be astounded. >> about whether or not you would have a press conference. you wrote yikes that would make four days in a row without a press conference for me. i wonder if you feel like you are still making up some of that lost ground from many months under the last administration of not just no information but disinformation being out there? >> what they didn't seem to understand is that science is a dynamic process. so, something that you know in january, you make a recommendation or a comment about it. but as you get more and more

information, the information leads you to change. >> well, the true mark of someone is that they look good even when their personal emails come out. so you passed the test that very few of us would pass. lawrence: guys, he said numerous times when trump was in office that he was allowed to say and speak his mind. brian: even in the emails. lawrence: and then he goes on nicolle wallace. by the way i don't know what she is doing now. she used to be part of the bush administration. all of the sudden she is carrying the water for all these progressives. it makes absolutely no sense. this is an american issue. this is not even political anymore anymore. everyone would have stood with dr. fauci if he would have said i did not know. anyways, senator rand paul is going to be coming up in the 8:30 hour to tell us about this. he must feel brian. brian: he is not stopping there. he wants him fired. remember anthony fauci's book 08 page book coming out november 3d. >> turns out so much backlash from amazon and barnes & noble have seemingly scrubbed it from

their site. so, i believe the difference between him and cuomo is after cuomo's book was released he then was disgraced. i think by the time this is coming in november, dr. fauci will be disgraced. meanwhile, 7 minutes after the hour. let's turn to another major issue that the biden administration is ignoring. and that's the border. fox news capturing exclusive video of migrants nearly drowning trying to cross into texas. griff jenkins joins us live in washington for more. griff? we seem to think this is a big deal. but not many others do. griff: it is a big deal, brian, ainsley and lawrence, good morning. the border is on fire. it is in crisis. the video we are about to show you is far too common of an occurrence in the rio grand valley. migrants caught in life threatening situations attempting to cross the river. fox news jared carter caught this all on camera. watch. [shouting] >> they are drowning. they're drowning.

[screaming] he. griff: our agents rushed down to the river to help them. meanwhile at the other end of the 2,000-mile long border a remarkable helicopter are rescue marines out of huma arizona spot a woman being assaulted just 20n the mexican side near athletics co, california. director of air operations jim shoes ler described it. >> we look for any kind of action that may be going on on either side of the border and saw what he saw a man and walk locked like she was being actively raped. griff: capture with mexican authorities. the woman shot in the head as well ran north for the agents and landed and provided medical assistance through the fence

until a mexican ambulance arrived. this after that heart wrenching video we saw of an abandoned toddler crying out near el paso. [screams] [crying] griff: all of this as another bipartisan group of lawmakers visits the border yesterday including a tour of donna, texas facility comes guys as hhs said yesterday it will not shut down any facilities holding children in texas despite an order from governor greg abbott. brian, ainsley, lawrence? brian: it's about jurisdiction, i guess. thanks, griff. ainsley: how can this not be a crisis. we saw those two little kid being tossed over the wall a few weeks ago, then we saw another little boy saying that he had been abandoned the smugglers just left him. and yesterday report obligorren the 5-year-old boy crying screaming and sobbing. where are his parents? why is his parents here in the united states and is he being smuggled over and now we are hearing about this lady. our border patrol agents are

flailing never helicopter and they see this lady being attacked being actively raped. and then shot in the head. she was bleeding. a man is on top of her. she is screaming. they turn on their sirens, they radio down and the guy runs off and is scared. is he arrested in mexico, thank goodness. going to be charged with attempted murder. lawrence: brian, i don't know what we expect. this is a criminal enterprise. this is cartel. brian: making money. lawrence: i hate to bring it down to that. this is what happens. ainsley: they said used to be making money on drugs now making money on smuggling. lawrence: sometimes both at the same time. they don't care about the safety. if they lose people along the way they write to have as a loss. the enterprise continues. this is why the biden administration has to take a stance on this. it's aiding and abetting. brian: lawrence, it's not an opinion. they were handing thought english biden t-shirt when they crossments mayorkas says if you are a kid you stay.

that got us over 17,000 kids in custody that we're now taking care of on military bases where we used to keep our military. and we have other kids in america, 500,000 minimum homeless in the streets. so don't say well, america has to have a big heart. we have a big heart but we have a priority the same way we prioritize the vaccine for americans, rightfully so, we should prioritize social networks and social welfare for americans as well. and there should be an immigration system, maybe more robust to let people in. but not to let people come in illegally and stay illegally. texas governor greg abbott is in a battalion for the federal government to get control of his border in over 30 counties. who is going to win this? maybe the courts will decide. here is what he told sean late last night. >> so now we have 34 counties on the border who ask me to declare their county a disaster which i did. you are normally gubernatorial

disaster declaration are for things like hurricanes. i don't think it has ever happened before where a disaster declaration made was made for border counties because of the influx of people coming across the border. but i did because we are about to change the way that texas addresses the challenges on the border. and we're going to start by helping these 34 counties respond by increasing arrests. can. lawrence: they have run out of room. they are flying folks all across the country. they can scramble and move them over to our health department, hhs across the street. they have run out of room there. if they don't think it's a crisis, i don't know what it's going to take to change their mind on this. brian: kamala harris is now going to go to these triangle countries starting this weekend and write checks. sorry that things are so bad. here's a billion dollars or multimillion dollars check to make your roads better and your schools more robust. that's not going to do it. they will turn around and said a second still not better, i'm going to need more money or more hell is going to break leake loose at the border even worse than you thought.

it's called extortion. ainsley: you were talking about they are running these advertisements down in the. brian: social media and on television. ainsley: if you need a smuggler $5,000. brian: now's the time. >> lawrence: we will be talking about this all day. i have a big problem with even trying to solve the root causes there. have they seen the problem in our major cities too? brain brian lawrence is going to refuse to stop talking all day. i know do you a lot of shows. you cannot. lawrence: put it on me. brian: you cannot just take over of the network and talk about it all day. ainsley: are you jealous is he taking time away from you. ainsley: jillian, brian is saying that? brian: someone has to show some leadership here. ains this is a tv show. jillian: good morning, let's begin with a fox news alert. because we do have a very serious story. three police officers are shot while responding to satisfies call in wilmington, delaware. all were taken to the hospital in stable condition.

an investigation is underway and heavy police presence including a swat team remains in the area. police are asking anyone in the vicinity to shelter in place. we will keep you updated on this developing story throughout the morning. overnight president biden congratulating the election of israel's new president. however, biden made no mention of the announcement the that opponent of prime minister benjamin netanyahu had reached a deal to oust the long time israeli leader. netanyahu is expected to fight the coalition it comes as hamas denounces israel for the rest of one of its top leader linked to a number of suicide bombings. takes parent car for a joy ride and ends up tracking into a sister in the car. say the pair wanted to gone a beachcation in california. both were wearing seat belts and no one was hurt, thankfully. they did sideswipe a car and swerve into that semi-truck. an investigation is underway.

arizona in for a shock when he noticed his flag was missing before memorial day. douglas discovered? afghanistan discovered the flag was stolen after a failed burning aburglary attempt. >> to have it stolen i just didn't understand it. >> douglas says he immediately replaced the stolen flag with a bigger one and made sure it was there to honor the fallen before the holiday. brian and lawrence, can you battle it out for whoever wants to speak. brian? brian: going to be ainsley. ainsley: i will be the referee. brian: lawrence is co-anchor. ainsley: thank you, jillian. 16 manipulates be after the top of the hour. still ahead cuts come. nearly half the states across the country are ending the biden backed unemployment benefits early. all of them are led by republican governors. stuart varney sees a pattern here. is he going to talk to us about it next. brian: yep.

♪ ♪ peter: is there any thought here that some of the worker shortage could be driven by the extra $300 in weekly benefit through september. >> i will say, peter, that our economists and assessment and the assessment of many economists out there is that the impact, the largest impact are on issues related to the pandemic. ainsley: the white house still insisting those extended unemployment benefits because of covid are not to blame for the current labor shortage as half now as of tuesday the united states, led by republican governors officially eliminating

them. brian: yup e here to react host of varney and company stuart varney. stuart, republicans are saying we can't get people back to work with supplemental insurance. democrats including jen psaki says they are heartless. what do you think? >> look, right from the start there has been a political difference in the way that we have approached covid. there is a difference between democrat-run states and republican states. basically, republican states have said right from the beginning certainly months ago, go back to work. open up the economy. grow the economy. democrats turned around and said no, stay safe, stay at home. we will pay to you stay home. well, now, this political split is really obvious. because 25 states, half the nation's total are now rejecting these $300 a week weekly payments, emergency payments and saying, no, we don't want them anymore. we are going to cut them off. they are not going to run through mid september. we are ending them as of mid

june or july. that's all from republican states. governor larry hogan is the republican governor of maryland. he said, look, these payments are no longer necessary. you have got 8 million jobs outstanding open and more than half the population has been vaccinated. so you have got a clear cut political split as to how we handle coming out of code. republicans open up, don't take that money. democrats, i think, trying to buy votes saying stay at home, we'll pay you, stay safe. that's a political split for the ages. lawrence: so, stu, what is going to be the end result of this? because we have been playing the stories over and over. the businesses are, you know, raising the wages, people still don't want to come back to work. >> the result of this is a real split in economic performance. these 25 republican states are the ones who are going to grow, they're the ones with the lowest

unemployment rate. the democrat states are going to be the laggers. they are still going to be paying out this money. people are still going to be staying at home. and you're going to have a lagging economy. that's the end result of this political split. now, i don't know how long this is going to last. i'm waiting for the first democrat governor to turn around and say, you know, maybe you guys are right. maybe we should stop paying people to work -- to stay at home and not work. maybe we'll reject those payments again. but, so far, i've not seen a democratic governor step up to the plate like that. ainsley: we will see the results if this is actually working. have you heard of any state, the very first states that started rejecting the covid money, have you heard that they're doing better, that these businesses are thriving again and more people are going back to work? >> yes. we have some early evidence of that. the last big jobs report, a month ago, showed far fewer people going back into the labor force, back to new jobs.

far fewer than we thought. >> and the republicans thought well, wait a minute, that's because we are paying people to stay at home. this report is due o out tomorrw morning at 8:30 eastern time. that -- we don't know what it's going to show. but it will probably show a large number ofew jobs because the economy is booming and some people are going back to work to take those jobs to take those higher wages. it's a very strong economy we have got now. we need people go back to work. you don't want those payments, go back to work, grow the economy for the benefit of all. brian: we're growing the deficit and can't wait to see what the results are going to be july's child tax credit where millions of families are getting money for having kids. thanks, stuart, appreciate it we are going to watch stuart varner again because we can't get enough of him. that's what he looked like in a picture from 9 to noon on fbn.

jillian: good morning, we are back with your headlines now. body camera footage is released of that florida shootout where a 14-year-old girl and 12-year-old boy fired multiple rounds at deputies the kids ran away from the foster center barricading themselves inside. the girl came out of the home and pointed a shotgun at deputies before she was shot and wounded. shortly after the 12-year-old boy surrendered. he was not hurt. the volusia county sheriff says the department of juvenile justice should have been doing more to monitor the kids. >> how does a 12-year-old and 14-year-old so full of hate? i don't know what to say. i think, you know, you need to look at the system. what we are doing is not working. it's not working. jillian: stay tuned because you will hear more from that sheriff when he joins us live later this

dr. anthony fauci on defense after criticism of his consistently inconsistent messaging. >> what they didn't seem to understand is that science is a dynamic process. so when you hear someone say something at one point and then two or three months later if you stick with what you said at the original time when you had one fifth the amount of data that you have now, i think that would be inappropriate. brian: do you know what's also inappropriate you never acknowledged that you were changing you just would change. this after newly released emails show a key wuhan researcher thanked him for down playing the coronavirus lab leak theory. author of the forthcoming book "the price we pay" what broke american healthcare and how to fix it dr. marty makary. what did this expose to a medical expert like you.

>> i think what we noticed in these emails, brian, there is an absence of any real sense of urgency sounding the alarm. by early march, just days before the shutdown his strongest warning was simply to tell old people not to take cruises. hundreds of leaders in the united states were emailing throughout february and early march begging him to understand what should they be doing? how should they prepare? should they take this seriously? absent was any real sounding of the alarm when many of us were around there is a hey, a little help from dr. fauci would be appreciated as we are trying to prepare the country. brian: on this whole mask debate, wherever you stand on it, we know he flip flopped on it we also know in science magazine that chinese scientist who is a friend of his was critical saying why aren't americans being told to mask up? and then he quickly wrote back and said to them sorry, that reporter messed with my words.

i would never say something like that. i think the big story is should we have been masking up and why did a chinese researcher have to tell a magazine writer that? >> yeah. there is sort of this hyper polite tiptoeing around each other's feelings around this issue of masking where doctors in asian were warning american doctors and warning dr. fauci clearly in these emails to please take masks seriously. look, he should have known. this was his responsibility. sars cov 2 spread just like cough 1. cov 1. brian: he knows what to put in an email. we see stuff that's concerning here. imagine if he wasn't as skilled as being a bureaucrat as he is. >> dr. fauci has been in government for 53 years. one of the rules is anything you put in email is public information. he was clearly very careful if

the most scathing emails we have are from peter daszak to him, then we know dr. fauci was being very careful. i see the absence of dr. fauci sounding the alarm sending warnings to leaders in american buyers in february and early march. and also the failure to recognize that they needed to pick the $40 billion in taxpayer funding that goes to the nih. they needed to pay for that quickly covid that was not done until later in the year. brian: dr. makary, is he the best we have? >> i think if you look at his track record it's a disappointing track record. hills primary responsibility is to warn us of a pandemic and tell us how to manage it. both those pieces of information were in a vacuum. we didn't get that guide dance. if you look at what happened in a wuhan lab he has been oddly quiet about the entire issue until very, very recently. brian: dr. marty makary, thank you so much. >> thanks brian. brian: still ahead, new concerns saber attacks on political

russia test. lawrence: rebecca, i have got to ask you this because i'm often troubled by the cyberattack in general and they have been going on for awhile. obviously escalated before this meeting in geneva. when are we going to start striking back from a cyber perspective. too we have the capabilities to strike back? >> yes, of course we do. it's a great question. and there is a lot that the american people aren't going to know sometimes. it's going to happen covertly about how the united states can respond. so one would hope at this point that the united states is doing something. but whatever they are doing clearly hasn't worked. clearly hasn't caused the russian government to stop this, to prevent it. we should all be very incredulous when the russian government says they don't know this is going on. these are just, you know, pirate groups, basically operating inside russia. the russian government, their intelligence operation, they are the ones supporting this at least tacitly, otherwise these groups couldn't be carrying out

these attacks against major american artery that effect major supply chains. lawrence: rebecca, how do we look on the world stage? what are our allies saying behind the scenes with this going on? >> you know, allies are always going to have a hard time when the united states doesn't lead, isn't clear, isn't direct and doesn't have the clear position. even if the united states takes positions they don't agree with they want american strength. president biden, decades in foreign policy he talked a big game about being tough on our adversaries, he needs to find it and find it quickly. lawrence: talk is cheap. you have actually got to be about it rebekah, thank you for your perspective. >> thank you. lawrence: time to get some weather and check in with senior meteorologist janice dean for our weather forecast. janice, i tried to play weather man and i looked and it may be raining here? januaryian maybe a little bit later. for now it's dry.

i'm hoping we get through "fox & friends" and then it can pour. it's going to be raining the southeast and down towards the mid-atlantic and florida. there are the current temps, 6 in new york. we're going to see a rainy day for the eastern third of the country. we also have a severe thunderstorm warning in effect for parts of middle tennessee. large hail, damaging wind and even isolated tornadoes possible for areas around the d.c. region. later on tonight today as we get the daytime heating and that's going to be the story throughout the day today and the front will sweep across the east coast on friday. so a better forecast for this weekend. there is your forecast rain fall. also want to mexico heavy rain for portions of texas not only this weekend but into next week. heavy rainfall. so keep that in mind. there is your forecast, 74 in new york. 86 in atlanta. can you see the showers and thunderstorms popping up from the gulf coast all the way up towards new england. and then the heat, the heat is going to build not only to the northwest and the northern plains, but for the northeast look at new york, 92 on sunday.

and 90 on monday. d.c. as well into the 90's and pittsburgh will flirt with high 80's. and then tomorrow i think i'm going to be in elmont for the belmont which happens on saturday the third leg of the triple crown and it looks really nice. beautiful 82 degrees. so for now it looks good. rain later. lawrence: you know we love to see you in those hats. janice: i think it's happening. lawrence: thanks, j.d. janice: you got it. lawrence: still ahead is coke too woke it is for one alabama county. first paramount pictures now helping governor gavin newsom fight his recall election. we will talk to a california restaurant owner whose plea for help went viral after being shut down while an a tv show set unjust feet away. ♪ ♪

ainsley: as the fate to recall governor gavin newsom heats up in california it looks like the cash is streaming in for the embattled governor. paramount pictures becoming the latest dozier to join the effort as records show that the company has donated $40,000 to defend gavin newsom against the recall. other next guest is a business owner in california whose plea for help went viral after her restaurant was shut down while a tv show was able to set up shop just a few feet away. joining us now grill and saloon in los angeles angela marsden. good to see you again. >> good to see you. ainsley: what was your reaction when you found out another big organization or company is donating to keep him in office? >> well, the hits just keep coming. i mean, honestly, it's nonstop. it's not surprising to me. i don't know if anybody -- any of the viewers know much about what's called behest payments.

last year 2020 governor gavin newsom on his behalf, got $226 million in behested payments. that was from paramount, netflix, facebook. i mean, the list goes on, pfizer, blue shield and of course no bid contracts which a lot of these companies did get some of those so it's not surprising to me, right? i honestly am very, very worried about him staying in office and it feels almost like the hunger games. it's like the little person against the machine. so $226 million was given to him by these companies to help the homeless and to help people like myself and people that were unemployed and can't pay their rent and 1/3 of the restaurants are permanently closed and we are struggling. i predict by the end of the

year, more small businesses will be out of business. most he of them are afloat right now with ppp and grants. the business model isn't working because minimum wage goes up this month to $15 an hour, even on tipped employees our inflation was went through the roof. a box of to go boxes went from $45 to $100 a box. so even though we are busy and people are excited to be out. we are deal with 50% capacity. we are dealing with inflation. we have a huge employee shortage like everybody else around the country. it does not surprise me and this is why i hope and i pray people start to do the research and even though it seems like things are going well, we don't know what's going to hit us by the end of the year. so i just pray that we can come together and unify for california blue, red, independent, and get this person out of office. if i can say one thing, it's

like so in 1997, there is a great "l.a. times" article that came out on this actually very recently. in 1997 they passed the behest payment laws. the governor at the time took none. gavin newsom in 2020 on top of the highest taxes in the country, literally had six times the amount of jerry brown's total 8 years in one year in 2020, the pandemic. ainsley: wow, well we wish you all the best. you guys got enough signatures for a recall. >> yeah. ainsley: really quickly, what's the latest on that? >> we are basically waiting to find the person to back. we are looking at candidates. ainsley: we wish you the best, angela. thank you so much. we reached out to viacom cbs for comment we did not hear back. we wish you the best. thank you. lara trump at the top of the hour. stay with us.

america great that's the first feature we did on that series on fox nation. lawrence: put that plug in there. brian: it helps the country and the company. i just say. lawrence: is he a company man, y'all. is yours loose? i'm going to fall. brian: eventually we will be age to take this off. ainsley: just stay still, brian. brian: almost impossible. ainsley: letting bring in lara trump. fox news contributor. good morning, lara. >> good to be with you. ainsley: glad you are part of the company, too. seeing so much video on the border. a lady was raped and thankfully she was rescued. we sought boy yesterday crying, clinging to the teddy bear, wailing, asking no one to leave him being left alone. kids pushed over the wall. the migrants that were drowning that sara carter got video of yesterday. they are not saying it's a crisis.

they are not even going down there. your reaction? >> yeah, well we think we all forgot about this ainsley, do you remember? we told everybody the border was closed. it's all closed now, it's all set. that is ridiculous, it's insulting to the american people. it's insulting to the people who made this journey. how horrible the video of those people drowning. my gosh. this is what happens when you incentivize people to come to america illegally. they can say it's shut down. it is obviously not. where is the border czar? where is kamala harris just because they are trying to ignore it in the biden harris administration does not mean the problem is solved. it is very real. people are taking a dangerous journey and they are coming to america every single day illegally, children being smuggled in by coyotes, and you see the result of it right there. so, i think it's disgraceful for them to try and just pass this off as though there is no problem. we know, by the way. the border czar kamala harris

has now been given a new job, guys, she is now going to be -- she couldn't complete the first one but now she is going to go around the country and convince people to get the vaccine. i don't think you are going to see them pay attention to this. but it's up to us to continue talking about it and bringing light to it. lawrence: lara, sara carter part of the fox news channel was at the border and we want to warn our audience. this is video of migrants drowning in the rio grande river. watch. [shouting] >> they're drowning, they're drowning. [screaming] >> they're drowning. lawrence: then here is also, lara, the child being abandoned at the border as well. do we have the video?

[sobbing] [screaming] lawrence: lara, have you got drowning, you have kids being left at the border. what is going to happen in these meetings that kamala is having to address root causes? >> i mean, it's almost laughable. it's so sad to laugh at it but, you know, when you won't even go down and physically put yourself in a place where these situations are happening, i mean, i don't have very high expectation. you know, they have eradicated every policy that donald trump put in place to slow people coming down to america to actually close the border. donald trump had a wall being built. it was very clear when he was in offers if you tried to come it into america illegally you were going to be sent back to your country. you heard in a press conference two weeks ago part of the biden administration. i believe it was mayorkas being asked well, what if children come? well, then they can stay. so now you are continuing this

problem. let me tell you that video of that child i have a 1 and 3-year-old ainsley, you have a daughter that is 5. heart breaking as a parent to think that this is a child that is just being left alone, it is awful. ainsley: he will never forget this. brian: keep in mind, he is hoping for a smuggler to help him. not even a parent to come back. a stranger, a smuggler. ainsley: just somebody, anyone. brian: by definition, he needs somebody. meanwhile, and that's happening countless times this just caught on video. that was by a french videographer that we actually got ahold of. let's talk about the other major story that's 3200 emails that have come forward through the freedom of information act put forward by buzzfeed. and some of these emails, it seems to have gotten past cnn, msnbc, they just continued to laud anthony fauci. i'm very concerned about what was going on. especially in 2019 to 2020.

here's one of the emails that we found disturbing and noteworthy to sylvia president of the american university and former hhs secretary. this is february 5th, 2020. here is civil i can't. masks are really for infected people to prevent them from spreading infection to people who are not infected. rather than protecting unaffected people from acquiring infection. the typical mask you buy in the store is not really effective in keeping it back the virus. i do not recommend that you wear a mask particularly since you are going to a very low risk location. this is a guy -- he is 80 years old. he has been doing this for decades. is he telling them don't wear a mask. by the end of the year, he is wearing two masks and recommending goggles. what are we to believe? >> two masks, three masks, the more masks you can get on the better for dr. fauci. guys, he has flip flopped on everything that he has said. i mean, it's hard to give him any correct whatsoever at this point. and i think a lot of us sort of

started to lose faith in what he was saying because we saw the -- remember at the beginning he told all of us if it makes you feel better, wear a mask. if it doesn't. you know what i mean? what was the truth there. and i think whenever somebody who has held a position for, i think, 53 years like dr. fauci in the government. maybe it's time to retire. maybe he has been -- i don't want to suggest corrupted but there is something very curious going on. you look at some of those emails. and they suggest exactly what we all knew. he has an email that says it is the immunocompromise in elderly that should be quarantined. not the rest of america. not the healthy population. and, yet, here we are a year-plus later and it's been horrific what america and the rest of the world has had to deal with under the leadership of dr. anthony fauci. i have a lookout of questions. a lot of americans do. i think we ought to get some answers because, gosh, what if

we didn't have to go through all of this, can you imagine? ainsley: this is one of the headlines buzzfeed says anthony fauci's emails reveal the pressure that fell on one man. offers a peek into his world. cnn reveal the weight that came with his role as a rare source of frank honesty with the trump administration's covid-19 task force. why too they give him a pass, yet, if you are a republican, your father-in-law, anything he said is criticized yet they give him a pass. >> yeah, because sadly the mainstream media has become the marketing arm for the democrat party. they are no longer journalists. they are no longer deselmating information and fact. democracy dies in darkness. "the washington post" didn't even put any of these foia emails out. instead they did a glowing review a profile of dr. fauci. they have an agenda, ainsley. they want to push it forward. and they don't care at what cost. they are obviously working on behalf of the democrat party,

the woke left, and the rest of us just have to figure things out on our own and fend for our selves. thank goodness we have organizations like fox news. thank goodness we have good people out there trying to get the facts and information to the american people. it is really sad but it really feels like journalism is dead. lawrence: we want to pivot to this story. you are from north carolina. one of the cities banning coca-cola machines and office build go aheadses over opposition of georgia's voting law. what is happening? what is the purpose of this? >> yeah, you know what? i don't really subscribe to boycotts myself. i think it's crazy. but, look, i think there are so many people, lawrence, who have gotten behind this idea that they have to stand up to the voting laws. by the way, the voting laws that would make our voting more secure that don't disenfranchise anyone. they have no idea, generally speaking, what they're talking about when they get involved with this stuff. yet, it's popular with, you

know, holiday and the liberal elites so, you know what? let's jump on the bandwagon. i think it's ridiculous. i think people have to start standing up against this, speaking out against these boycotts because, you know, i think it's crazy. and i don't think it does anything positive. brian: i understand that the country is getting from us stralgt straighted because coca-cola coming out against the voting law. the left wing in america. they defund, they boycott, they cancel, they tear down statues, all sort of egregious actions. >> the's expectation of them exposing the political side cower in the corner and supposed to accept it and supposed to be okay. it's not. in this county, coca-cola you are taking a stand against us. we are taking a stand against you. and lastly, i know you are considering running for senate in north carolina. what about this story that president trump is thinking that he is going to be placed into office in august? is that true? has he mentioned that to you? because i think 24 hours a day

other networks are running with that story. >> well, i think you should take a look at who those networks are and who is pushing that story out. as far as i know, there are no plans for donald trump to be in the white house in august. maybe there's something i don't know, brian, but, no. i think that that is a lot of folks getting worked up about something just because maybe there wasn't enough pushback, you know, from the republican side. no, i have not heard any plans for donald trump to be installed in the white house in august. brian: you just blew up all their programming for the next 72 hours. >> so sorry, guys. brian: we are okay. we have other stuff planned. lara, thank you. ainsley: jillian has more headlines. jillian: let's begin with this story that we continue to follow. a fox news alert. a live look at wilmington, delaware as firefighters and a swat team remain on the scene of a police shooting. three officers were shot overnight while responding to a service call at an apartment complex. all were taken to the hospital

in stable condition. now, this is a look at the scene just moments ago. our fox affiliate reported a woman handed a small child to police out of a third floor window of that apartment. you see this video here. this is where the officers were shot. now, it is unclear if the suspect is still inside at this time. police are asking anyone in the vicinity to shelter in place. we will keep you updated on this developing story. new york governor andrew cuomo making taxpayers foot the bill for his legal defense. new yorkers says $2.5 million for cuomo's lawyer on the sexual harassment and book deal. it's a state expense because his lawyer was hired through his executive chamber. our own janice dean wrote a new op-ed on cuomo, it is on foxnews.com. make sure you check it out. there will be no fireworks at mount rushmore this fourth of july. a federal judge rejecting south dakota governor kristi noem's lawsuit against the biden administration to allow the

jillian: that's different putting it on the seat of your car. ainsley: i know. he was in a hurry. he didn't have time. jillian: he had time to put the mask on the seat. lawrence: stop judging,. brian: brian those are the masks that you put on the wall don't you if you are a clown. ainsley: yeah that or buy those at michaels and tech core rate them. brian: or goalie in hockey. ainsley: still ahead the cutest story a father and daughter go viral with a very powerful message against critical race theory. >> my baby is going to know that no matter what she wants to be in life, all she has to do is work hard. >> it doesn't matter if you are black or white or any color. >> we need to stop crt. ainsley: kory and royalty are going to be on with us next. advanced non-small cell lung cancer can change everything.

the white kid able to play with the black kid? and you know, before that, i hadn't discussed segregation with my daughter. i didn't think she was ready for anything like jim crow and things like that yet. you know. so i had to speak about it with her after that. we had a conversation, and that's actually what led up to, you know, coming out and speaking with her about things like that. ainsley: are you surprised by the reaction so many more followers and a lot of people have watched this video and now you are on national television. >> yes. i'm so overwhelmed. it's a blessing. the main thing i want to get out there is i want little white kids to know that know they are not oppressors. i want little black kids to know they are not oppressed. they can do anything they want to do. anything they put their mind to. they can overcome any obstacle. your skin color does not matter. ainsley: i love your message about working hard.

george p. bush the land commissioner joins us now. george, i guess those other things worked out. why are you jumping in against another republican now? >> well, for many years now, texans know that their top cop has been under securities fraud indictment and very concerned about that. and last november it became clear with eight of his top lieutenant alleging everything from bribe troy corruption that many at the grassroots level in our state want a change in leadership. so part of my argument is i'm a conservative advocate for the state of texas but without the baggage. i brought the state's interest to the courthouse several times on behalf of the 13 million acres where i represent for the school children of texas. i bring a legal background to the table and i'm excited to go down to the border today to talk about the lax biden border policies that result in the largest surge of illegal immigration in the modern american history. brian: you are not saying that ken backston has done a bad job.

you think the corruption charges which he is over felony indictment defrauding investors and accused of bribery by 8 former aides, it's those issues, the behavior, aside from the job that says this is the time for you to jump in? >> yes. i mean, i think this is about the fitness, the competence of running the state's most important law firm. there are 4200 full time employees with a budget of over 660 million. and it requires somebody to be above reproach. it's hard to claim the moral high ground on issues like human trafficking and illegal immigration and backing the thin blue line in our state if you yourself are facing significant criminal investigations and allegations. so, my argument is, look, i have been a servant to this country i have served the military 10 years and served the state of texas land commissioner managing asset protecting the federal overreach we have seen in the oil and gas industry. i'm prepared and ready onto take this fight to d.c.

brian: are you concerned about dividing the party? because this will be a tough battle. i know senator cornyn very respected in texas. is he staying out of it, it seems. and the governor, what is governor abbott's reaction? >> so i have talked to both the governor and lieutenant governor, at the end of the session we just wrapped up our session on memorial day, and they are concerned about the behavior, they want the criminal investigation to play out. and i agree. let's let the fbi do their work. in the meantime i believe texas republicans should have a choice. last night i talked about in 1976 ronald reagan running to the right of gerald ford. sitting incumbent president which despite all odds he thought it was important that republicans have a choice in the wake of scandal. because the status quo is not working in this particular office. it's a dysfunctional office. and that's why i think texas republicans should have a choice when it comes to their top cop. brian: true. for you, as land commissioner. some things that have been in the fray with you, is brawling

over the alamo; 450 million five year brawl. what do you say to people who think that maybe you are giving -- not giving history enough respect at the alamo as you try to revamp that very popular historical site? >> well, the lieutenant governor and i have kissed and made up. we are designing a much brighter future at the alamo. the 1836 plan would bring back the battlefield to the way that it looked back in 1836. that's what this whole discussion has been about. now that we have reached an agreement with the texas his friends@foxnews.com commission, the legislature just allocated 50 million. the county 25 million. so we are well on our way to some great days ahead on the grounds of the alamo. brian: you are attorney general now if the moniker goes to you one of the things texas care about and so do americans is what is happening at the border. we capture video of people dropping 5-year-olds off

messages. if we can go back to the trump policies of remain in mexico. close the loopholes that are in our immigration laws, we can be in a much better place like where we were under the trump days. and as attorney general i would advocate for those positions. brian: you talked to the former president. is he going to endorse you? >> so we had a great conversation a few days ago. he sent me his best. he had great words of encouragement. we agree we have got to push back. do you know what's scary about this, brian, bernie sanders is probably the happiest person in washington, d.c. now. that's what he joked and i agree with him. we have a lot of work ahead, especially november 2022 to take back the congress and make sure we have the right players on the field so we can beat the democrats in the next cycle. brian: george p. bush a big move for you of course any time in the bush family moves for higher office the world pays attention. george p. bush this is your time. look forward to seeing how this election plays out. thanks. >> thanks, brian. brian: reached out to a.g.

3,200 pages of e-mails? >> so i've seen some of the e-mails. what really matters here is when it mattered most, when the chinese were covering this up in early january of 2020 , dr. fauci certainly would have seen the same intelligence that i saw. we would certainly have known that the risk this came from the laboratory was real and the chinese communist party didn't want any of us to know that and that raised red flags throughout the entire united states government for far too long. dr. fauci let those of us who were out there talking about it carry the mantel, and we couldn't get science. we got politics instead and that's what you saw on the left wing media. politics trumping science and that delayed our capacity to respond to what the chinese communist party put upon the world. brian: directly affects our national security. here is an example of the e-mails that are eye brow raising this is an e-mail, this is what he's responding after anthony fauci sidelined the talk of a lab leak. "april 18, 2020 i'm sure you remember this. i just want to say a personal

thank you, on behalf of our staff and collaborators, for publicly standing up and stating that the scientific evidence supports a natural origin from covid-19 from a bat to a human spillover, not a lab release from the wuhan institute of virology, from my perspective your comments are brave and coming from your trusted voice will help dispell the myths being spun around the viruses origins." now your job, secretary of state , knowing that that was going on behind the scenes, anthony fauci saying it happened by happen stance, wet market as opposed to a wuhan lab, where tom cotton was one of the first to say, let's look at that lab. >> yeah, so right after that e-mail that you described in early may i began to talk about this as well. we knew that the evidence was accumulating. it was piling up showing that the theory of the wet market didn't hold water and that the much more likely scenario with this had come from the virology lab in wuhan, and this guy, the fellow that wrote this e-mail.

he's got dirty hands. he was involved in this laboratory. there was taxpayer money funnel ed through an alliance he was responsible for. you know, too, brian he was one of the lead investigators that was sent into take a look at this. brian: what a joke. >> there's a lot of questions to be answered and i think dr. fauci has a lot of questions to answer and this matters, your point brian about this being about american national security that lab is still operating. that work is still going on there today, and we could have something like this happen again in the chinese communist party refuse to tell us what they know the united states, president biden, must demand that we get these answers and we need to know how the u.s. government, how the u.s. government, dr. fauci, all the folks involved in underwriting this laboratory what they knew, when they knew it because this will help us answer the important questions that will keep us all safe. >> okay that's the perfect segway to the question i have for you, mr. secretary. you've always been a straight shooter. we know there were some behind the scenes scuffles between the president and fauci and you guys. did you all know something was going on behind the scenes, that there was this connection back

then? what did you guys know at the time? >> so i have to be a little careful. you saw, lawrence, what we were able to release on january 15, director ratcliffe, the head of the dni had been working for a long time to get as much information released as we possibly could. we knew, we could watch all of the facts begin to align that suggested that the most likely case, we knew about the doctors, we watched them disappear, journalists, we knew people had taken ill in wuhan. we began to see the evidence accumulate and we were trying to get it out. we were certainly trying to make sure everybody in the united states so we could respond. >> sorry to interrupt. what prevented you guys from pushing out all of the information? >> it's complicated process, lawrence. there's still more information sitting there that i think ought to be out, but you have sources and methods, intelligence and things that need to be protected i was the director of the cia, i understand that, but we need to make sure that the american people know everything that we can, and then frankly, we don't know the answer for sure. we need the chinese communist

party to be held accountable. ainsley: will we ever know the answer, the origins of this virus that killed millions of people around the world? >> yeah, i think we will. it may take years and years and years. we know it has already taken too long. the chinese communist party could answer this in 30 seconds if they chose to do so but i think one day we'll know. some brave chinese doctor, some technician will break free and share the information. we'll be able to validate what happened. we need to get the answer to this question. brian: right i will say this just in terms of what e-mails subscribe to what you're saying, this exchange between the scientist richard henderson to fauci, he said unusual features on the virus makeup a really small part of the genome, so one has to look at very hard at all of the sequences to see that some of the features potentially look engineered. isn't that nice? so, that might have been manufactured and made. >> brian, you know, all these e-mails that you're seeing now are entirely consistent with

what the propaganda machine inside of china was pressing and what the world health organization was pressing as well. we can't forget that all this time, not only was there an absence of information from the chinese communist party, but they were trying to tell us this came from america. they were -- brian: they still do. >> engaged in propaganda suggesting this was natural. they are hard at it. we've got to hold the chinese communist party accountable. i haven't seen any evidence this administration is prepared to do that. the american people should demand they be held accountable. there are lots of tools we can use to do that. >> mr. secretary, i want to pivot to another issue, kamala harris has gone 71 days without a press conference being tapped to run the border crisis. now she'll be at guatemala on sunday and mexico on monday. we know that you briefed the biden administration during the transition about how their policy could impact the border, the remain in mexico policy. what should she be saying to these countries when she goes to meet with them, this upcoming week? >> unfortunately, she's not

going to say what needs to be said. what is easy to do is to just go back to the policies that we had in place, once they worked. it took us a little while to get them in place, but we turned off the magnet. we had prevented this massive humanitarian crisis and this enormous national security crisis from taking place. she should tell them we're going to go back to the policies that we had back in december of last year, and this will keep those countries want to keep their people too. they like to have their talent stay inside of their country. we need to tell them that this is what they are going to have to do. they have to enforce their own borders and we're going to enforce ours. ainsley: let's talk about the russia meeting coming up between joe biden and vladimir putin. we keep seeing all of these ransomware attacks, and they're being linked to russia. a reporter was asking jen psaki about it in the press room yesterday, and they say that they're not being tested by putin. listen to this and we'll get your reaction. >> mr. president, will you retaliate against russia for the latest ransomware attack

>> [inaudible]. >> do you think putin is testing you? >> no. ainsley: he says putin is not testing him. what do you say? >> here is what i can say for sure. these kinds of things in our administration were different and kind in the responses to russian activity was different in kind. we didn't give the money. we didn't let them build-out their energy pipeline. we provided weapon systems to the ukraine to defend themselves , we built out our military, all these things vladimir putin didn't like and now you see these ransomware attacks. i haven't seen the intelligence but they look and have all of the hallmarks of having come from russia, when president biden meets with president putin next week he needs to make clear there will be real costs, not just on these thugs, these criminals who are engaged in this conduct but from the people who are supporting and enabling if it in fact is coming from inside of russia. vladimir putin has an awful lot of capacity to control what happens inside of his country, and the leaders of that country need to be held thible if we continue to have these thing which is can reek enormous devastation on our economy.

brian: they said it. they had their undersecretary come out and say we're going to make things very unpleasant for the president leading up to june 16, and now, they've taken out the mta through ransomware, jbs , the colonial pipeline and the massachusetts steamboat authority let alone what just happened with this meat hit, in the middle of the country. so this is a, they keep getting shots to the forehead and we don't answer with anything. >> [laughter] yeah, brian. these are the wins that we know about that have been made public goodness knows how many have taken place inside some private company who just decided to pay the ransom to make it go away. we'll have to impose real costs and defend ourselves and brian we have lots of tools some of which we can't say much about but we have lots of tools where we can impose real cost on the russians and the cyber hack ers. this is a sovereignty issue, this is not terribly different from someone who attacks the united states in the ways we've known as a matter of history and we need to treat it as just that kind of attack. >> mr. secretary, we want to

pivot to this story right here. netanyahu rivals to form a new government to oust him. what does this mean for the u.s. israel relations? this is israel's longest serving prime minister, our most trusted allie. will that relationship and that bond remain with this new government? >> lawrence i was in israel this past weekend for four days while this was all taking place. this government is confusing one , that they are trying to form. it's not completely over yet. it's not certain that they will be successful in doing so. you've got arab parties, you've got hard right party, you've got what be traditionally the israeli center left party. this is going to be really difficult for them to make good decisions and that's not good for the u.s. israel relationship i hope that whatever government gets formed continues to build on this important security relationship. we were such great partners with the israel. we were able to isolate them as part of the abraham accord.

i hope that whatever government ultimately takes place they will continue to build-out on what we did which really created more peace, more prosperity and indeed more stability in the middle east. brian: well president obama and netanyahu famously disliked each other. in fact president obama worked on the scenes he wouldn't get re-elected which is unbelievable and joe biden no word yet on how this is going to affect relations but when you have to make a deal with an arab sector of the israeli government , this is unprecedented, so what do they give up? what do they promise? >> it'll be interesting to see , brian what all deals had to be cut to make this happen. if they don't get it done there will be a fifth election it's messy stuff inside of israel but brian we can see what happens when the united states isn't strong. the iranians will underwrite hezbollah, we saw what they did with firing rocket s into tel aviv and jerusalem, and american leadership with israel matters a lot and whatever government gets

formed in israel builds on that. ainsley: thank you so much for being on with us. >> thank you, secretary. >> thank you all, have a good morning. brian: crazy time in the world. ainsley: jillian has headlines. jillian: let's begin with a fox news alert. a live look at wilmington, delaware where a swat team just left an apartment building following a police shooting. three officers were shot overnight while responding to a service call at a complex. all three were taken to the hospital in stable condition. here is a look at the swat team entering the building just moments ago, and earlier, police were seen helping a woman out of a third floor window of that apartment, and before that, police were seen helping another woman and a small child out of the same window. it is unclear why they're being taken out of the building and if the suspect is still inside. police are asking anyone in the vicinity to shelter in place >> florida senator rick scot is introducing a bill that would ban vaccine passports for domestic flights. the freedom to fly act would prohibit the tsa from asking passengers for proof of vaccination.

scot says the government has "no business requiring travelers to turnover their personal medical information to catch a flight" several states including florida , texas, and georgia have passed laws banning vaccine requirements. >> this just in. president biden will meet with queen elizabeth later this month the buckingham palace confirmed saying meeting will happen on june 13 at windsor castle. this while the president is in the uk for the g 7 summit. it'll be president biden's first trip overseas since assuming office. >> and coach k plans to call it a career at the end of the upcoming college basketball season and boy what a career it was. he won five national championships in his 41 seasons with the blue [els. duke associate head coach has been named as coach k's replacement and the program post ing this old photo of the two together which coach k signed, "work hard, and always try your best" and i believe he's done just that. those are your headlines sending it back to you.

>> great coach if you ever have the opportunity to go to coach k camp, it is intense. ainsley: you did it? brian: i think we should go this summer since it's his last one. >> i don't think you're ready, brian. brian: that hurt. jillian: i hear a challenge. brian: you have to go on your own. ainsley: you should compete against him in soccer then. brian: right. ainsley: we'll see if he could beat you. exactly. lawrence is the soccer guy and you're the basketball guy. jillian: could ainsley and i handle it? >> i think you all can. you have mental toughness. ainsley: jillian will play golf and kick all of our tails and i'll play tennis. brian: just so you know he wants you to play basketball. when you choose another sport but he says he couldn't tell his incoming freshman that i'm going to be there for four years i didn't want a farewell tour but i can not lie to my recruits for this year, so i do not want to be the coach to follow coach k. ainsley: he came out he doesn't

want to lie to the recruits that's sweet, nice of him not to lie. brian: right. all right, still ahead, kentucky senator rand paul joins us live with the latest on the fauci e-mails, plus? ainsley: no fireworks at mount rushmore this independence day and governor christie nome is taking action, after a judge strikes down her bid for that celebration. she's going to speak out on that and much more, coming up, next. advanced non-small cell lung cancer can change everything. but your first treatment could be a chemo-free combination of two immunotherapies that works differently. it could mean a chance to live longer. opdivo plus yervoy is for adults newly diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread, tests positive for pd-l1, and does not have an abnormal egfr or alk gene. it is the only fda-approved

combination of two immunotherapies. opdivo plus yervoy equals a chance for more starry nights. more sparkly days. more sunny mornings. opdivo and yervoy can cause your immune system to harm healthy parts of your body during and after treatment. these problems can be severe and lead to death. see your doctor right away if you have a cough; chest pain; shortness of breath; irregular heartbeat; diarrhea; constipation; severe stomach pain, nausea or vomiting; dizziness; fainting; eye problems; extreme tiredness; changes in appetite, thirst or urine; rash; itching; confusion; memory problems; muscle pain or weakness; joint pain; flushing; or fever. these are not all the possible side effects. problems can occur together and more often when opdivo is used with yervoy. tell your doctor about all medical conditions including immune or nervous system problems, if you've had or plan to have an organ or stem cell transplant, or received chest radiation. here's to a chance to live longer. ask your doctor about chemo-free opdivo plus yervoy. thank you to all those in our clinical trials.

ainsley: april federal judge in south dakota ruling no independence day fireworks at

mount rushmore this year rejecting governor noem's bid to allow them after her request for a permit was denied by the biden administration. south dakota's governor kristi noem joins us now, with her response. good morning to you, governor. >> good morning, ainsley. ainsley: so what was the reason that they're denying you of this >> you know, the decision was really arbitrary. that's why we'll be appealing this decision and the fight isn't over. there wasn't specific reasons that had credibility, and we call this an unlawful act to not make sure that we can conduct our celebration on july 3 at mount rushmore like we did last year. this is part of the radical left 's agenda. they don't want to celebrate america, or our freedoms. they are pushing critical race theory. they are pushing the 1619 project and this just another one of those battles to erase our true, honest and patriotic history in this country. ainsley: they are saying because they could cause fires but what does the federal government know that you don't know as the governor who actually grew up and lives in the state.

>> well, we did all of this work, in making sure we are working with local and state and federal fire officials to conduct a safe fireworks celebration last year. those agreements are still in place. the work has been done. back burning has been taking place to make sure it was going to be a safe environment, and, ainsley, there's always a go, no -go checklist that even up until hours we have the celebration, if any one of those entities says it's not safe it won't happen, but to shut it down at this point, saying there could be covid concerns, fire concern, environmental concerns is just not honest, because we've gone through and checked all those boxes, submitted to all their permitting requirements, done the environmental studies. we've addressed all their concerns, we had an agreement signed and then the national park service decided just not to issue us the permit. that's why we went to court. we will continue to fight this fight and make sure that america is celebrated and that we focus on our leaders that led our country through challenging times and use them as

inspiration to continue to motivate us to protect this country far into the future ainsley: two questions for you what if they say no to the appeal and do you feel like this is just retaliation against you because you're a republican? >> absolutely. this is political. it's all political and punitive and it's ridiculous, and the fact that we have a judge that stood beside this political arbitrary decision that came out of the biden white house is unfortunate, but we do not quit. we keep fighting, and this country is worth it, ainsley. ainsley: well hopefully they will let you continue next year, with these fireworks. so, we interviewed a precious dad and his daughter earlier in the show, corey yesha, and his daughter is royalty, and he post ed a video on tik tok. it has gotten so many views because he's saying he's teaching his daughter not to see color, but to judge her friends or pick her friends based on their character, and he's saying no to critical race theory. watch this and we'll get your reaction on the other side. >> okay. >> the agenda being pushed on

our children and they're trying to teach our children to look at each other not for who they are as a person, but for their skin color. >> it doesn't matter their skin color. >> the main thing that i want to get out there is i want little white kids to know that they are not oppressor s. i want little black kids to know they are not oppressed and they can do anything that they want to do, anything they put their mind to. they can overcome any obstacle. your skin color does not matter. ainsley: i know you said back in may that critical race theory doesn't belong in the schools in your state. what's your reaction to his message? >> well, what kory is teaching his daughter, royalty, whose absolutely adorable, what he's teaching her is wisdom and discernment and to love people. that's exactly what america is about. that's exactly what god intended for all of us to do is to not look at people based on what they are on the outside, to love

them regardless, and continue to be the kind of people that the lord would want us to be, so i love that kory's teaching his daughter that. that video, i think, should be inspiration to all parents that our job is to prepare our children for life and that life is about relationships and it's about caring about each other and not focusing on skin tone and skin color. that is exactly what critical race theory does. it creates division and pits people against each other and that's why it's not acceptable to be taught in our schools. ainsley: governor thank you for being with us this morning. >> thank you, ainsley. have a wonderful day. ainsley: thanks you too. coming up we have senator rand paul he believes that the media has egg on their face after we learned that fauci was thanked for downplaying the lab leak theory. the kentucky republican is going to respond, live right after the break.

jillian: good morning we're back with your headlines. the family of a fallen member of

the orlando police department was honored this week with a flag that recently flew over the u.s. capitol. in march kevin valencia died from critical injures obtained in the line of duty in 2018. florida common darren soto attended the ceremony and said "we will always remember the officer as a courageous and selfless hero who protected our community." >> george p. bush the nephew of former president george w. bush announces his bid for texas attorney general. he joined us in the last hour saying texas voters want a change in leadership citing a long running securities fraud case against current a.g. ken paxon. >> for many years now texans know their top cop has been under securities fraud indictment. i'm a conservative advocate for the state of texas but without the baggage. jillian: bush has served as texas' land commissioner since 2015. he's the last bush family member still in public office. >> take a look at this dramatic rescue showing the moment a

little girl is rescued off the coast of whales. she was floating when strong winds pushed her out to sea. rescue crews rushed to save her grabbing her from the water bringing her back to safety. officials say she wasn't hurt. just a bit shaken. >> and if you're going to run on wrigley field, well probably not a good idea but if you do, wear a helmet. a fan carrying a jesus is lord sign ran right in the middle of the chicago cubs showdown with the san diego padres. video showing the fan, here we go, starting to sit down realiz ing he has no escape that's when that security guard tackles him delivering quite a hit. that is a look at your headlines , brian make sure you don't do that, brian. brian: i promise i will not. thank you very much. meanwhile 28 minutes before the top of the hour. he told you, senator rand paul, after newly-released e-mails show a key wuhan researcher thanked dr. fauci for down playing the coronavirus lab leak theory, but still, the press wasted no time gushing over the e-mail, 3,000-plus.

actually, praising their frank honesty and the pressure that fell on one man's shoulders. senator rand paul joins us now to react. senator i've been watching you along the way and we also watched your exchange with dr. fauci live. what do the 3,200 e-mails tell you? >> well they tell me that early on, he was very worried. you know, there is a disturbing picture, he gets an e-mail or notification of what's going on in wuhan and he immediately sends something to his assistant an e-mail saying we must meet immediately, read this article and in the subject line, in the article it says "gain of function research in wuhan." well he still denies, to this day, he was funding it, and as you know, gain of function is where you take an animal virus and you make it into a super- virus that infects humans. they were doing this at the wuhan lab. dr. fauci still denies it to this day, but in his private e-mails, he puts in the subject line, "urgent, we must discuss this gain of function research"

so he knows it's gain of function, and he needs to be pinned down on this. there are scientists across america who will dispute what he's saying, who said that specifically the grant and the money given to wuhan that dr. fauci approved that it was gain of function research, and we need to talk to these scientists in this field and hear from them about how dr. fauci is not being honest with the american public. brian: just the tone of some of these e-mails even though some of them are redacted, show the urgency basically omg we basically responsible for that and should the guy whose funding these labs be in charge of telling america how to handle it and what happened here. there's a disconnect of putting him in charge. that was a big mistake. >> yeah, so early on, i was somewhat it's weighted. all these scientists were telling me it couldn't have come from the lab and i listened to them but then i discovered they had not revealed that they were the very scientists that were funding the lab, so the conflict of interest is this.

if this virus came from the lab, there's a certain amount of at least moral culpability to the people advocating for this. dr. fauci, to this day, says he still trusts the chinese scientists. i don't think he seems to be aware of the way it works in a communist government. do you think there aren't military generals in that lab as well? do you think some of the scientists aren't also in the communist party and the military, so i don't think that having trust of chinese scientists with gain of function research was very wise, in fact it was so naive that we shouldn't have dr. fauci in a position of advising the u.s. , the world, or anybody else, because he's shown such poor decision-making. brian: i watched you brawl with him many times but i thought in a fair way he would try to answer your questions but the question was was he telling the truth one of which is on masks. you told him, i've had it already, i have the antibodies. we have an e-mail of him saying cloth masks don't work to somebody else so he tells one scientist trying to urge him to tell the country to mariah carey

a wear a mask, what do you think he thinks? >> it's a very definition of theatre. if you ask him about immunity, if you ask him privately if i've had the disease do i in all likelihood have immunity, he'll say yes but then he'll say we're going to completely discount it and this is a very important public policy decision. in india there's 1 billion people, 400,000 people a day are getting this. they have 2,000 people a day dying at least, and so there's a real question. should you give the vaccine to people who have already had the disease or should you save the vaccine for people who haven't been infected? there's not enough vaccine to go around in india. this is probably the most important public policy or public health decision in the world right now, because dr. fauci isn't being honest about immunity, they may well be giving the vaccine to people who are already infected, which is not allowing enough people to get vaccinated for them to get to herd immunity. brian: and dr. rand paul this is something people should keep in mind. if he has the checkbook, and he's funding these labs, and these are research that the researchers want funded, why would they ever come out against

him? it be against their own interest s, so this formula doesn't work for america. >> well, he has yet to apologize or even admit that they were doing gain of function research even though his private e-mails admit immediately, oh, my god goodness, we have to do something immediately about this gain of function research so he admits in private what he won't say in public and this is a big deal because if you at least say he made a mistake there might be some consideration, but he still denying that we funded the wuhan lab, gain of function research, or that they were doing it or that it was an unwise decision. there's a bigger decision also, brian. we have 11 labs in the united states, doing gain of function. i don't give our researchers bad motives i think our researchers are good people, but i worry about the idea of whether we should take the spanish flu and try to transmit it and make it easier to infect with humans whether that's a good idea and whether it could possibly escape in the u.s. as well, so this research many many scientists, not just people in

the political world, but many scientists are very very weary of this and while going to try to have a hearing in washington, i don't think the democrats will allow us to do it officially but i'll try to have an open discussion in the capitol bringing in the scientists who discuss and are worried about gain of function. most of these people are not partisans, they aren't republicans or democrats they are just scientists but impartial scientists worried about this for a decade that this could happen. brian: yeah, actually, what you brought up is not partisan either. i think we're all against the coronavirus and stopping the next one and you've been there first, fire fauci i know exactly how you feel going into the segment and i don't think you've changed your mind during. senator rand paul thanks for bringing this front and center, appreciate it. all right, still ahead, body cam footage showing the moment two runaway kids open fire on florida deputies. why that sheriff says calls to defund the police are to blame, next.

lucia county sheriff joins us now. sheriff i hope your officers are doing okay. one of my first jobs was in the juvenile court. the judges be furious about this when did you guys first discover that the pursuit that you guys were on were of teenagers? >> good morning, lawrence and thank you for having me on. around 5:00 monday in the afternoon or tuesday afternoon, we got a call from the home that a 12-year-old and a 14-year-old had walked off campus. the 12-year-old was a diabetic needed his insulin every four hours, if not he would have a medical episode, so deputies began scouring the area to try to find the 12-year-old and the 14-year-old. couple times we came in contact with them, they fled from us. at around 7:30 we were flagged down. there's a very popular bike trail that runs behind that home , and one of the cycle it's es had told us they saw a young male and a young female breaking into a house. deputies get there, and they discovered the front door is

shattered and they do something that i would never have done. i would have gone right into the house. they wait. they try to do a little recon. they get more deputies in and they get a hold of the homeowner who had just left the house and he tells them that nobody should be in there and by the way, there's an ak-47, there's a pump shot gun and a handgun and 200 rounds of ammunition so the dynamics change, deputies surround the house and we make multiple announcements for over 45 minutes, deputies took gunfire. the sergeant that you see in that video, that tree is hit multiple times. they fired dozens of rounds at us and that tree was the only thing stopping the sergeant from being shot and he had the courage to stand there and call out and let his fellow deputies know all of the movements because he had the best line of sight so nobody else would get injured. >> sheriff, how does something like this happen? >> you know, it's this restorative justice that they shove down our throats

brian: we've got big news now for all die hard football fans out there this morning so big, in fact, we need grid iron great doug flutie to help us deliver that news but to introduce doug, here is ainsley. ainsley: okay well he joins us now along with brian woods the ceo of the spring league

that you can watch on fox, good morning, gentlemen. good morning. ainsley: good morning, so who wants to announce the big news? >> you got it. >> [laughter] i guess i'll go first here. you know, fox sports and fox have been the home, have been the tv partner for the spring league since last year. we are the premier professional football development league in the united states, and we're very excited to have fox as a partner, but we've got some extremely exciting news this morning to announce and that is we are bringing back the united states football league, the usfl in spring of 2022, and fox is going to be the official broadcast partner of this , so we are more than thrilled about the upcoming season, and to have fox on board brian: so doug you did this and the guy who owned the team that you played for was this guy named donald trump, and the usf l, in the spring, i remember that, because you didn't go, you didn't go to the nfl, you went to the usfl, so what does it do for your career

as coming out at the heisman trophy winner to go to this league. are you going to compete for the next trophy winner or look for the players that didn't make the nfl? >> i think you're going to need to go like for me, it was great. it gave me an opportunity to play right away, start, there was a lot of question marks about me and the nfl and all that, so gave me an opportunity to get on the field right away and that's what it's going to do for a lot of guys that are maybe marginal but also i'm sure there will be big names jumping over. when we played in the usfl, we had steve young, jim kelly, myself, herschel walker, 15 guys out of that usfl went to the nfl pro-bowl the following year so it's a great alternative, it's in the spring, people love football. it'll be quality football in the spring. >> you know, brian, doug is right. americans love football but they love competition. what can you tell us about the competitive nature in this league? will it level up to the nfl? >> i would tell you this and

just reiterate what doug was saying. that was the difference between the usfl and all of the other attempts at spring professional football and i think that time before that time so the product that you see , we will go after the very best talent, and we are open to, or we will be open to having younger players take part in this league, so it's a rising sophomore, or a rising junior. if you remember years ago, the usfl took a junior and herschel walker before the nfl would take a player in that sort of status, so we're looking for the very best talent in this league. this will not be a development league by any nature. this will be the very best talent that's available and will hopefully and after about five or six years of operation, could be on par, or close to the nfl product. brian: doug real quick i watch those commercials on television it looks like you're in real good shape. are you thinking about playing in this league? >> yeah, i'll make a comeback. i can hold for field goals and extra points.

>> [laughter] brian: all right, guys i look forward to seeing it. i think there's a real gap and an opportunity here, hope you guys can do it, and hope you have the money to compete. doug flutie former nfl and usfl star and brian woods ceo of the spring league airing on fox sports good luck, guys. >> appreciate it. ainsley: thank you guys we have more "fox & friends" just moment s away. >> ♪ ♪ ♪ advanced non-small cell lung cancer can change everything. but your first treatment could be a chemo-free combination of two immunotherapies that works differently. it could mean a chance to live longer. opdivo plus yervoy is for adults newly diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread, tests positive for pd-l1, and does not have an abnormal egfr or alk gene. it is the only fda-approved combination of two immunotherapies. opdivo plus yervoy equals
