3:03 am
[laughter] there was a water balloon fight and it was will keep in headset and against rachel, we turn to some news this morning president biden celebrated the fourth of july and touting success of fighting covid-19 this as anthony fauci is sending mixed messages to americans. lawrence: david spunt joins us live from washington. >> good morning to you three president biden had hoped to get 70% of americans with one shot of a vaccine he fell short by 3% but the white house touting many successes and he says yesterday on independence day was all about independence from covid-19 and independence from the virus, last night at the white house the president and first lady doctor jill biden held a barbecue with 1000 military personnel and essential workers to thank them for their service, the president told americans that this country is coming together. >> 245 years ago we declared our
3:04 am
independence from a distant king, today were closer than ever to declaring their independence from a deadly virus. >> doctor anthony fauci is telling people in areas with a low vaccination rate to consider masking up even if you are vaccinated. listen here. >> you want to go the extra step and say when i'm in the area where there is a considerable degree of viral circulation i might want to go the extra mile to be cautious enough to make sure that i get the extra added level of protection even though the vaccine themselves are highly effective. >> dr. fauci and other experts are concerned about the delta variant making its way to california, nevada, colorado, arkansas to missouri. >> the bottom line vaccination is our best route to freedom and
3:05 am
independence. you want to be free, independent, enjoy this and future holiday get vaccinated. >> tom frieden the head of the cdc has come and gone and fell short by 3% were white house officials say there's many other goals and bars along the way they hope to be in it comes to vaccinations and getting past covid-19. will: thank you so much. rachel: am i the only one that thought that was creepy. that vaccines are the best way to freedom and independence. i thought my constitution was and it's also such mixed messages. if the vaccine works, why do i need to wear a mask, this idea, we don't have this number of people vaccinated, thought counting all the people who have already have coping so we probably already have herd immunity. in the worst one of all, telling us there's so concerned about the delta variant while they've opened our borders and the
3:06 am
people come from places that we know the delta variant is as well. will: when i listen to those clips i think we truly are suffering through pandemic of mental illness because they hear doctor anthony fauci and joe biden put out what at this point can be nothing short of misinformation, i do not apologize for that mischaracterization. the retaining fear is a mechanism to lower over us, joe biden set a standard is 70% vaccination and said we would be open if we reach that, we didn't reach that any opened anyway. and dr. fauci with the pure insanity that you should still masks after vaccination. here's one last point that rachel makes it is so key, why are we pretending that there are not millions of americans who had covid, recovered and had natural immunity. i want to show you this poll, these are vaccinated americans, actually on vaccinated americans who are asked are you going to get the vaccine of unvaccinated
3:07 am
74% they were not going to get it, many have already had covid, why are we pretending those people don't exist. will: the conversation can't just be even if they already did have covid-19, they don't want to get it that's their right. i have a real problem with leaders in our country not knowing what freedom really is, government should be educated, i've been very honest and i think the vaccine is a miracle it took me a while to look at the data to make that decision to finally get the vaccine but that's my right as an american, if there are americans out there that don't want to get the vaccine, that is their choice and it seems like the administration is spent more time with the fear monger instead of educating the population on why they should get the vaccine. if they spent more time on that, more people would be vaccinated but again, people have to get back to work, resume their lives and we cannot continue to be shut down, have the payment protection, businesses that are suffering because they have to
3:08 am
increase wages for jobs that do not deserve the wage increase. i think this is a part of the larger plan keep it shut down, get minimum wage raise permanently and they get to implement their agenda. guess what, you never let a crisis go to waste. rachel: get people hooked on government. i believe a lot of this ppe stuff is getting people addicted to government. right now more people are on some form of government assistance at any point ever in american history. will: you brought up mixed messaging when you brought up masks here's marion miller meeks talking about those mixed messages. >> there are some people who are overly cautious and will wear a mask but i think that is one of the things that slow down vaccination was a mixed messaging about masking we heard dr. fauci say earlier this year even after everybody is vaccinated we will still be wearing masks until 2022 and that is the kind of messaging that was confusing and they lead
3:09 am
people to say if i'm going to wear a mask until 2022 and a kick it back to normal then why get vaccinated. the reality is, if you're vaccinated you should be able to have some level of comfort and safety. rachel: i'm going to move on from mass confusion to some people who are confused about the fourth of july. we have representative cori bush who actually put out this tweet about her independence day. he says when they say the fourth of july is about american freedom, remember this freedoms they referring to is for white people, this land is stolen land and black people still aren't free. in addition to mall bollman from new york another representative said let us reflect on the full story of america today black people were not freed in 1776 despite the stacked, we must use our collective power to change that system, she's right the
3:10 am
blacks were not 300 frieden 1776 but the documents created and established on that day actually were used to free them. lawrence: which is what douglas said in his speech at the time, republicans at the time in front of lincoln he said we want them free right now and we should use these documents, he said america is great and he talked about that it was an insult to our founding documents but the problem is were here right now. and we are free and were getting close to the more perfect union. let me talk about these representatives, it's important this is the part of this freshman class, cori bush comes from ferguson area in st. louis, lacy clay and office in 24 in new york, he was in office 20 pushers, their activists they are talking to a specific crowd angering people, it is not about the full context of the story
3:11 am
and that is a dangerous part about this movement, you could talk about the injustice, i talk about all the time i'm always criticizing the country to become more perfect in our founding documents. but they think the foundation of america itself is wrong. when you just tell the stories without adding the proper contents, this is why were here right now. rachel: there making people believe that they are free right now which is wrong, it is not true. will: when we see a crack in the wall it shows the entire wall was compromise, the light, clearly there's so many of what cori bush had to say that black americans are not free today. start without light and everything falls apart. still ahead president biden mocked to a cheat sheet to a field of questions of assist but russia linked cyber attack and defense rush in the process. ♪

3:22 am
be. it happens every single weekend and we know the fourth of july is always a bloodbath but the mayor is more concerned about racism and sexism, meanwhile the people that are dying on the streets are black and brown, listen to the mayor. >> in recent months there have been questions raised about your temperament and your reaction to criticism, how much of this might have to do with the fact that you are a woman and specifically a black woman. >> about 99% of it. look at my predecessors. people say the words daily, held the t session with people he didn't disagree on ron emanuel was a polite guy who was a uniter, no, women and people of color are always held to different standards, i understand that an unknown that my whole life. lawrence: before i turned over, can we talk about the question that was asked.
3:23 am
we've been replaying this clip and it keeps hitting me. the press is provoking the stuffed. will: as offensive as her answer as the question, how much of the fact that you are woman in a black woman. why don't you ask the ten people that were murdered this week in chicago. how much criticism going toward the leader of the city because she's a woman specifically a black woman why don't you ask questions of those citizens of chicago who are dying on the street and then the mayor to respond about 99%, fundamentally unserious people leading that city. in fact, not just negligent but culpable people in the violence right there who want to paint themselves as a victim, real victims bleeding out on the streets of chicago those people right there the journalist and the leader of chicago should be indicted if not criminal in the minds and hearts of chicago voters they should be indicted. rachel: it's interesting because we played the tweet or showed the tweet from cori bush saying
3:24 am
in america black people aren't free. in chicago, they're not free. if you're not safe, for not free to pursue your american dream by going to work safely, and sending your kids to school, yeah you are not free. she can't blame our founding fathers, she can't blame racism on this, this is her policies, here's anthony napolitano talking about the war zone. >> we have 0 accountability for parents in the city of chicago, nobody's raising their kids, the gangs are raising them they arrest these criminals and the people on the street that are looting and destroying our city, pretty much when they hit the cell there out within a couple of hours, in different parts of the city wanted to combat crime and they'll be the first ones to leave the bus if something goes wrong way. were averaging 6000 people shot in the last six months, this is a war zone things are gonna go
3:25 am
wrong and they can't be held accountable for everything that's going to happen we have to let them be the police or we will never get ahead of this crime issue. lawrence: i know that we gotta move on but this last point the kids in the community, when you don't punish these actual criminals and the da lets people out there have gun charges and all of that it incentivizes that they don't have a choice, they have to join a gang to survive within the community. the good to be back on the block saying choose with team you're going to be on, is not just hurting the community from a crime and violence in the fact that rapes are up and shootings are up, it's hurting our young people, when they should be getting their education they have to choose the gang, they have no other choice. rachel: just to add to that, i know were going to move on we hear a lot about root causes these days, root cause is family and at some point this country has caused an honest conversation about the breakdown of the family so many of these
3:26 am
communities and that includes we need our cops on their feet and doing their things but we need the parents, the gangs are raising them instead of the parent speaker especially when we have some parent in there out there working and they expect the people they entrust to keep them safe and they can't work without the kids being recruited by gangs. will: moving on talking about a cyber attack, hacking gang which has now not just attacked america once again but it seems to be targeting the tokyo olympics this summer hackers, ran summer attacks an increasing problem in the united states and joe biden was asked in the role of russia behind-the-scenes he is being mocked for his answers. listen. >> will be in better shape to talk to about it.
3:27 am
i will tell you what they sent me, direct resources of the government to assist and respond if we determine and i will know better tomorrow and if it is either with the knowledge of and/or the consequence of russia then putin will respond. the initial thinking it was not the russian government. will: that was confusing for everyone watching as well as for joe biden. he was flipping through notecards trying to find the answer to the question. rachel: i felt sad watching that, i said this before when he was on the campaign trail and we saw these early signs of dementia, i'm just going to say i've been around people who had dementia and it looks very much like this i still cannot understand why joe biden as a spouse allowed her husband onto this journey, we knew the wheels were going to come off of this
3:28 am
around this point based on his actions and inactions during the campaign and i have to say is a woman who is married and married to a politician i never would've let my husband do this i would've wanted to spend those last years of him, with him and you know that was dementia, the level of stress of this job is probably only exacerbating and speeding this up. i lay this at the feet of joe biden when the only person that cares about you and your politician is your spouse. lawrence: i don't know what you struggling with i'm not a doctor of medicine but i tell you what i do believe my eyes and joe biden was once known as the greatest retail politician he was known for given speeches on the senate floor with no notes and there's a clear difference, that should be criticized that there's a clear difference from joe biden of yesterday and now.
3:29 am
will: one easy conclusion whether or not he has a physical disability at this point, mental disability and whether he is different or diminished, one thing is clear he's a managed president he's looking for someone else's words to guide him through the answers when he cannot have the notes in front of him or recall what he's lost in the moment then you lead to the question who's writing the notes and whose guiding the president. rachel: who is behind all this. straight ahead texas sheriff's reaching the breaking point over biden's border crisis. so there suing the administration for borrowing deportation. one of the sheriffs joins us next. hope the more you e the less they'll miss. but even if your teen was vaccinated against meningitis in the past they may be missing vaccination for meningitis b. although uncommon, up to 1 in 5 survivors of meningitis will have long term consequences. now as you're thinking about all the vaccines your teen might need make sure you ask your doctor

3:35 am
to get the government to do their job. the current administration issued a series of memorandums and policy changes that change the law and policy does not supersede the law and all were asking them for is to do the job. will: i asked the sincerely and otherwise you i know you would not be taking this action to think this can compel the biden administration to do their job, you as well as other sheriffs and ice enforcement as well i.c.e. officers as well, there's a lot of political pressure invoices contribute into this conversation which you think would compel the vice president to visit the border but nothing has, do you think this lawsuit can effectuate that type of action? >> what they were looking for in this lawsuit is perhaps get an injunction to force them to start the process. but we've got to do something by

4:03 am
rachel: what's funny about pete i got a lot of e-mails and text messages coming in from people who seem to competitions and they don't like that pete just goes after meal because i'm a girl. will: i love that you're a gamer, you're 100% gamer and i love it you get in there mix it up just like anyone else. let's move on to news a new pulse adjust the biden handled the immigration situation is not meeting everyone's approval, 51% the biden administration is handling our southern border and said 51% disapprove. this fascinates me when you consider that most people, a hopeful country according to harvard harris poll don't even understand the extent of what's going on. they don't even understand the number of border encounters and the number of crossing they underestimate by a major margin and still disapprove of the way that administration is handling. lawrence: 's images of the children, the american people are very compassionate people
4:04 am
and they saw the hypocrisy and blaming trump for this crisis and they got it under control they talk about the kids in cages and you see these heart breaking images of kids that are almost rounding and have been left at the border and this is why you really start to see the administration not really do anything but from a pr standpoint to try to act like a to go to the border and act like they will talk about root causes there only persuaded by polls. rachel: we see there are 6918 arrest of criminal noncitizens just this year. here is sheriff brad company from kitty county texas and he is suing the biden administration for not deporting illegals. >> we've got to do something my county is being completely overrun were seeing issues in northeast texas and we have sheriffs that are being overrun and this is the only logical step in is to draw attention and

4:07 am
sending their own law enforcement to the southern border to help texas to california and arizona deal with the issue. governors like asa hutchinson from arkansas who are asked by cnn whether that is all pr in addressing a crisis. watch. >> you are sending up to 40 members of the arkansas national guard down to the texas border. is it fair to say this is more a political gesture than helping the situation. >> no i disagree with that completely and what they've given to us on the border is a political nightmare. it deserves a cooperative response between the state and federal government to what's happening right now it is a disaster in human tragedy what were seen with the change in policy coming out of the biden administration. lawrence: guys, good grief i cannot state this enough the questions from the media, let's get the facts correct, the governor of texas requested other states to send help
4:08 am
because of federal government was not doing the job in their criticizing the governors that are responding to the call interesting enough when the press asked joe biden when are you going to let us in the donna facility or give us free press joe biden says when we get to it they have it given them access and they let it go. no question on them but when governors do the job of the federal government, the federal job to secure the border and as a result you see ranchers that have been intimidated, you see that the kids have been affected and you're also starting to see democrats are losing elections all the border, these were once democrat held city municipalities and their flipping because of this issue. will: yesterday we were hanging out on the set and you brought up increasingly important point that the strategy among the administration and democrats and those left at large is to deny, crime surge not happening it's a
4:09 am
figment of your imagination illegal immigration all pr, it's not happening matter what you expect dorsey, one of the denials is it's not being taught in k-12, it's not happening, is that so. here is a new measure adopted by the national education association, one of the largest teachers unions let's see if it's been implemented in k-12. the organization attacking educators for doing antiracist work and/or use the researcher being done and put together a list of resources and recommendation for state affiliates, local educators to utilize when they are attacked. further in this document lays out how critical race theory will be included through the teachers union in k-12 education. it's not a requirement read between the lines to understand what's being said you can read the lines literally. rachel: it's incredible your representative omar, yet president obama all saying this was a made up hoax by fox news.
4:10 am
now you have the nea admitting that they haven't worked to provider resources to fight back who want to stop us from doing critical race theory with your kids. i want to tell parents were listening these are our kids, these are our schools in this battle for whether your kindle be indoctrinated with a scary racist ideology or critical race theory this marxist ideology this is our world war ii visitor battle for freedom, if we don't do something now were going to have another generation of even more indoctrinated children, the new generation of aoc and it will be hard to get back our country doctor carol sween a former professor at princeton and vanderbilt, this is what she had to say about critical race theory. >> critical race theory was at the university in the legal department, philosophy
4:11 am
department and the ideas are too complex for kids from k-12, if they wanted to teach civil rights, it should be taught at an age-appropriate level, we want history taught but we wanted taught in a balanced way that shows we live in a great nation where people do come together they work across racial, ethnic and partisan lines that is not the message were giving our children. will: sometimes, i agree that i think this issue is one of the greatest is country has faced because undercut the very idea of america in this fight is what everyone has to understand, i don't want to speak to people that already agree, there are those that believe critical race theory is not being taught is a legal doctrine, the downstream effect antiracism the stems from this legal academic philosophy is everywhere. it may sound like hyperbole the
4:12 am
what rachel said marxism or our world war ii but she is right. if you do a little bit of research beyond the trojan horse that we want to be empathetic or tell the whole story of america, we all do we want to be empathetic until the entire story of america but you have to understand the way that's being done is through marxist philosophy to truly i believe is a racist ideology and that's not going to be a path toward healing this nation it will be a path toward greater dividing and destruction of the nation. lawrence: we've been talking about this a lot and will probably do a podcast on crt and work comes from and the originality of it. here's the problem, it lays out stories that are true if the conclusion becomes very problematic. what i see, i was just in the county which is the center of this, the kids are turning on their parents. that is part of what the frustration is in the reason why
4:13 am
i continue to make the point on this program that you have to teach your kids a history before they do it, when they teach them the history they give them a conclusion as well and the kids are coming home and saying why didn't you teach me this and then there saying the conclusion. the only way to win this fight is to tell them the good, bad and ugly and then you tell them kids, this is what were about it was our document that got as freedom and the documents were the greatest defense for us, that is not been taught in the classroom but you gotta beat them to the punch. rachel: you have to have those conversations at homes, hundreds of thousands of white men lost those lives to free the slaves, those kinds of stories are not being told, the conclusion is wrong, our country is not systemically racist our country is constantly improving itself and its founding documents have been the source of the freedom of slaves and so many others.

4:43 am
don't come, it seems like the folks are not listening. >> and the president told the administration and the crisis is your fault, the hair spends all her time looking for the causes of the crisis. i said it yesterday once you find causes of this also has to do is walk down the hall to the oval office where he made the decision to abolish all of president trump's border policy, this is there making this is by design the root causes of their policies. rachel: the border encounter continues to grow each month will put figures, january 7, 8000, now or in may 18, 0000, this human trafficking business is a very lucrative business for the cartel, how much more
4:44 am
powerful are the cartel today than they were in january? >> there making millions of dollars a day the more powerful than they've ever been. president trump had immigration at 70 or 80%, that means more border patrol agents. they were catching more narcotics illegal immigration is up 80% in the cartel was not making money, no one is hurting where the election of joe biden than the criminal cartel, they need the business phase of the promises and open borders that would overwhelm the border patrol with the drugs to the criminals that are not protected in parts of the border joe biden is given the key to the southern border to the criminal cartel, that is just the fact. will: we talk about this morning after morning what can be done, what should've been done, what is failing at the southern

rachel: we're back with quick patriotic headlines, receiving a purple heart. he didn't think that he deserved more than a decade after getting hurt in afghanistan, and a bullet destroyed petty officer second class joseph hardovec's air drum and cinched the side of his face and he downplayed his injuries to avoid leaving his unit during the 2010 firefight, and illinois national guardsmen alan juarez takes the oath of u.s. citizenship and here is what he told us earlier on fox & friends first about open borders. >> i don't think we should have open borders. i think not enclosed borders is the right way to go. >> juarez spent $10,000 to get his citizenship. will, back to you.
4:53 am
will: facebook now warning users they may have been exposed to extremist content. one example of the new pop-up notification reads "are you concerned that someone you know is becoming an extremist? we care about preventing extremistism on facebook others in your situation never received confidential support" in a new article my next guest says this notification proves facebook is becoming more of a publisher, and joining me now is university of chicago student and managing editor of a family affair because you'll recognize her last name, avida duffy here with us this morning. i was told two things, a you win so b i was asking your mom, how old you are, she said she's 21 and she said just because she can drink doesn't mean she should, so i won't ask you what you had on the 4th of july. would that be easing you in or too hard of a question? i think we both know the right answer. it's nothing right? >> you know, i'm not big into drinking actually. she's right about that, so no --
4:54 am
will: that's the first question. there you go. all right, let's talk about this new facebook notification system so you say it reveals they are more of a publisher than a platform. therefore, what? >> right, so i mean first of all, facebook has been very not upfront about this entire initiative. they said they are trying to curb extremism. they don't have a definition for extremism and the group they are partners with to surveil facebook users for extremism is a group called "life after hate" and their sole focus is far right extremism on which they say is the greatest threat to the united states so it's really, the bias is there if you do the digging you can see that there is only a certain type of people being targeted by this , and i asked facebook and reached out and i said are you guys interested in far left wing extremism and they wouldn't say, and i said are you interested in blm or antifa and blm is responsible for 95% of violent
4:55 am
rioting last year and they wouldn't say so it's obvious whose being targeted and obviously this is political and not about democracy or extrem ism but more than that, they are a platform, they aren't supposed to be publishers or not even reeducating people in this sort of way so that's why it's so concerning and really weird, honestly. will: if you are a publisher not a platform, then you shouldn't be as we've talked about section 230 protection from liability lawsuits. evita, why. why do you think facebook is doing this? is it because they believe, as you pointed out, that right wing extremists are the biggest threat to our country? are they doing it to avoid potential regulation like we'll do this , please, democrats don't come try to take us over. >> well, we know that the big tech oligarchs in silicon valley are all far left wing people, they are donors to democrats. this is not just, you know, an appeal to democrats this is ideological for them as well.
4:56 am
i think a lot of them really buy into this and so they are using the power that they have, with big tech to now control the rest of us, not just control what we say, but actually control what we think, because like i said, this initiative is more than just suppression of free speech. this is a reeducation initiative by facebook. it is very disturbing. will: and perhaps the most disturbing part is they are trying to use us to report on each other, to become our own secret police. all right, evita duffy, great job this morning. >> thanks so much. will: all right, take care. many in the media questioning republican governors sending reinforcements to the border. senator tom cotton on what democrats and the media are missing, next hour. this isn't just freight. these aren't just shipments. they're promises. big promises. small promises. cuddly shaped promises. each with a time and a place they've been promised to be.

5:02 am
square yesterday. will: still a holiday for you watching at home. you're on recovery day, i assume , when your big 4th of july weekend begins to come to an end but you can party all the way up through the end of the day before work begins again tomorrow. we're glad you're with us though for one more hour on this monday edition of fox & friends . president biden is celebrating the 4th of july at the white house,. will: but the celebrations are clouded by concerns over over the "delta variant" spreading in several states. rachel: david spunt joins us live from washington with the latest. david? reporter: hi, good morning. the president hoped to mark the 4th of july by having at least 70% of all adults with one vaccine shot. he missed that goal by 3%, 67, still the white house though touting many successes and yesterday, president biden said americans can celebrate independence from covid-19. listen. >> 245 years ago, we declared
5:03 am
our independence from a distance , today we're closer than ever, to declaring our independence from a deadly virus >> last night on the south lawn of the white house, the president and first lady held a barbecue with more than 1,000 military personnel and essential workers to thank them for their service. the white house increasingly focused on this delta variant hitting several western and southern states particularly hard. some of those states include california, missouri, arkansas, nevada, colorado, and utah. republican governor jim justice from west virginia not someone who sees eye to eye with the biden administration on many things but he's made it a point to say the vaccine is not political, he's encouraging west virginia and all americans to consider getting a vaccine, especially with this delta variant. >> what would put him over the edge is an awful lot of people dying. >> we have a lottery that basically says if you're
5:04 am
vaccinated, we're going to give you stuff. well you've got another lottery going on and it's the death lottery. reporter: 67% of americans some received a shot, i'm looking now about 172 million american adults that's about 157 million americans who have received both shots of that vaccine. back to you in new york. rachel: thank you, david. i don't know about you guys i don't feel very good about these lotteries for vaccines. i think they really incentivize people who maybe don't need the shot because if you've already had covid, a lot of doctors think it's probably not a good idea to get the vaccine, so i feel like it's providing some false and some wrong incentives for people and i think it disproportionately incentivizes people who are poor and working class to do things that may not be in the best interest of their health, not the vaccine is not good. people should take it if they think they need it but if you've had covid? >> it's just not following the science . part of the reason why i had covid before, and i still had a lot of antibodies and so my doctor advised me
5:05 am
maybe this is not the best time to take the vaccine. you know, they're actually getting between the patient and the doctor by giving everyone this universal medical advice. it's not following the science and you know what else is not following the science, telling people to wear a mask when they have already been vaccinated. here is dr. fauci. >> you might want to go the extra step and say when i'm in that area where there's a considerable degree of viral circulation i might want to go the extra mile to be cautious enough to make sure that i get the extra added level of protection, even though the vaccines themselves, are highly effective. will: exactly. it never ends. can i ask you a question. maybe i've completely lost my mind here but do you remember when covid first came on to the scene. what the national charge was, what our duty was, our civic duty, why we did everything we did. do we remember what that was about? bend the curve. >> right. slow the curve. will: to make sure that we could handle the level of
5:06 am
hospitalizations that came in sight. it was not to make sure that no one ever got covid. >> right. will: and now, they are hanging on, through the mechanism of fear, to every single a little bit of power that was acquired over the past year. with what argument? so that no one ever gets covid? wear masks outdoors, delta variant. it's not science. are you doing any of the risk analysis on this like what are the levels of people getting it? can hospitals handle it? its all turned into 0% transmission. its turned into insanity. rachel: yeah. >> no, you're 100% right and dr. marty makary calls them out because the mixed message is very confusing and he was on earlier with us, watch. >> there's a white house talking point to get every american vaccinated and anything that stirs up and coaxes people into that vaccination is praised and that's what's happening right now behind the scenes. we don't need every american vaccinated. we need every american who wants to be vaccinated vaccinated. we're going to need people to wear masks in the fall and winter if they're symptomatic if
5:07 am
you feel you've been exposed or you're coughing we want you to wear a mask in a grocery store and you can only cry wolf so many times as a public health official so it is a step backwards to tell people fully vaccinated to mask up, we need to be sending the opposite message right now. rachel: right, we're losing the credibility of health officials because we keep sending these mixed messages and you know, people don't know what to think anymore, and he even talked with marty makary, dr. m akary, about the credibility that dr. fauci is losing within the medical community because he said, you know, half of the doctors that he talks to just agree with him, with marty makary, that, you know, this is not good to tell people to wear masks when they are fully vaccinated, and again, also, the hypocrisy of leaving our border wide open, while the delta variants out, and then telling us that we need to mask up, because of the delta variant >> last thing i'll say on this , we got to stop calling this just mixed messages. some of this straight out lies. it's just lies to control. rachel: that's right. some of these people you've never heard of before and they
5:08 am
have gotten this and it's going away because people are going back to normal. i thought new york was going to be slow to get back to normal but i even see it now people are tired and done. everybody is like look, we're taking the mask off and going back to normal. rachel: but i was in mass yesterday and everybody was mask ed here in new york in my church and it made no sense and mostly they were old people but i'm sure all of them have been vaccinated, but there's this fear that a lot of them still have. will: there should be legitimate fear in the city of chicago, because violence continues to spiral out of control in that city at least 45 were shot this past weekend, including 10 fatalities. this , by the way, while i will play for you, some absolutely stunning jaw-dropping footage here of an interview. chicago mayor laurie lori lightfoot gave when it came to the criticism for stats like that and what's going down in chicago. watch this. >> there have been questions
5:09 am
raised about your temperament and your reaction to criticism. how much of this do you think might have to do with the fact that you're a woman and specifically, a black woman? >> about 99% of it. look at my predecessors. people say that rachel: daley held a session with people that he didn't disagree on, rahm emmanuel was a polite guy who was a uniter? no. women and people of color are always held to different standards. i understand that. i've known that my whole life. >> about 99%, guys. rachel: yeah. >> it can't be that you're los ing control of your city council right now, because they want support and they realize that their districts are literally under attack right now rachel: right. >> and here is the main problem i'm not going to pretend like this problem didn't exist before her. she promised to resolve this. she promised to have a relationship with the police
5:10 am
department to win back trust, to go out there and walk the street and talk with the community. now, democrats in her own party are saying look, there are shootings happening right across the street from me. mayor you going to come out and support it and meanwhile she's actually harassing her staff, sending mean e-mails, some of this stuff is disgusting and to simplify it and be intellectual ly dishonest to say oh, it's because i'm a woman and i'm black. rachel: the problem has gotten worse under her -- >> 100%. rachel: 1,500 shootings since january that's just in the first six months of this year, so this is a war zone that we're seeing in chicago. james craig, former detroit police chief, walked talked to us earlier, and here is what he had to say about what's happening in cities that don't support the police. >> they're not focusing on the real core issue. i mean, i looked at the polls that just recently came out and
5:11 am
it talks about stricter gun control. how about let's focus on violent criminals. these are en bold en because they know there's not going to be any consequences associated with their actions. you must support the men and women who do the work. if you don't support them, we can talk about chicago. we can talk about new york. this defunding, ending qualified immunity. here is a response. de-policing. will: i wonder what americans tolerance is for this , draping yourself in victimhood ideology. you know, you create policies that exacerbate a problem and when the criticism comes you say the criticism is because i'm a minority or a woman or black. at what point it's obviously absurd to the level of comedic. you've got to laugh. that's ridiculous and then you have to get angry and then you have to go i'm done with this. i have no more tolerance for this victimhood or lack of accountability. it's unacceptable. >> it's not even close to being proportion at. i mean, chicago is literally,
5:12 am
the name for chicago is they made a whole documentary about it, and to simplify all of this criticism, i mean, it's just laughable as you said. rachel: yeah, well it's turning the people she claims she wants to help, the minority community, those are the people who -- will: are dying. rachel: who are losing their freedom because they are afraid to leave their house and send their kids to school. meanwhile, she also supported the unions that shutdown the schools for these people, so , you know, all of this is related to the culture, and that community. i think that's the root cause there. will: we also have a problem at the national level when it comes to cyberattacks increasing problems when it comes to ransomware attacks, they are even suggestions that the tokyo olympics this coming summer will be a target for ham archdiocese hackers. meanwhile joe biden was asked about this problem and where it might be originating from. his answer was a little confusing. watch. >> we're not sure of its direction. i'll be in better shape to talk
5:13 am
to you about it, hang on a second. i'll tell you what they sent me. i directed the full resources of the government to assist in a response if we determine, and i'll know better tomorrow and if it is either with the knowledge of and/or consequence of russia then i told putin we will respond. the initial thinking was it was not the russian government. >> getting worse, guys. it's really getting worse, as i said before, i'm not a doctor. i don't know. i can't prescribe or make a diagnosis or anything but i do know there's a difference in this guy. i'm not against people having notes. we have notes, we prep for the show, but you got to know the material. you're the president of the united states. you're getting briefings every single day, and to go out there and not be able to have just a basic conversation to a weak press. it's not, they give him lay-ups
5:14 am
all the time and he still needs notes for that. rachel: absolutely, we had miranda devine from the new york post on earlier. she says this makes america look weak. >> quite sad to see these moments when joe biden is so low energy and obviously, cognitive ly frail, but what's worrying is that it's projecting weakness to the rest of the world. america is under cyber attack. we've had in recent weeks, the colonial pipeline hack. we've had the food company hack, and now this one where 100 companies are affected. you know it's our critical infrastructure, we are like sitting ducks and you just want to get some strength coming from this government. rachel: yeah. will: it reveals two problems two growing problems for that matter the increasing unrestricted warfare of cyberattacks and how that plays a role in our country's future and the increasing problem of joe biden's ability to address
5:15 am
it. rachel: and i'm sorry just as a human, my heartbreaks watching that video. i wonder where his family members are, where his wife is. this is not fair to him, and i think it makes him look very bad and miranda's right it also makes our country look very bad. will: let's head over to ashley strohmier meyer that has headlines. reporter: a tennessee teen is behind bars for launching a fire work at a police helicopter. a detective allegedly saw john schmidt get out of his car and then fire that rocket at the chopper that fire work that is narrowly missing it. now schmidt tried to leave but was arrested. police found more fireworks in his car. he is now facing multiple charges. >> to hear a michigan police officer pulled a man from a fiery crash all caught on camera take a watch. gosh, could you imagine that officer says his training kicked
5:16 am
in as he rushed to the burning car and then dragged the victim to safety. the 23-year-old was taken to the hospital. he was trapped after being in a rollover crash. >> the dutchess of cambridge is self-isolating after coming into contact with someone who tested positive for covid-19. kensington palace says kate middleton is not experiencing any symptoms. the daily mail reports the dutchess has received both covid-19 vaccinations. prince william is scheduled to continue royal duties this week and is not required to isolate. >> and a mural dedicated to military is unveiled at a legion post in colorado for independence day. the tri-town area north of denver is showcasing their support and it cost the artist $5,000 but was paid for. sherwood win williams donated nateed the point and materials it is dubbed the biggest mural on any american legion building in the state of colorado. those are your headlines guys back to you. rachel: thanks a lot. >> coming up violence reaching

>> you see needles, you see drugs, you see meth deals going down. you don't realize sometimes what you're living in the middle of until you see some, a video, and you think wait a minute. that's where i live. >> residents of venice beach, california, expressing frustration with the crime in homeless encampments when i spoke with them in may. now the violence is getting worse as viral video appears to show a homeless man getting punched and kicked with several people walking by, but never stepping into help. los angeles county sheriff alex villeneuva is down to bring public safety back to the area with his outreach team and he joins us now. sheriff, is this a crisis? >> this is a whole new meaning of the term crisis, because we have a double crisis. we have the actual problem on the ground, where you see the homeless encampments basically engulf the entire communities in los angeles county and then you have the political establishment who says there is no crisis, they don't want to declare a state of
5:23 am
emergency, they don't want to devote the resources to the problem or acknowledge that they just kind of well we have to be compassionate let's not do anything, literally. that is their approach to the problem, which is getting bigger by the way. >> which is clearly naive. sheriff one thing i noticed when i was on the ground there is in these homeless encampments they have their own system of justice , people that patrol the area, that keep people out of tents. why is that allowed to happen, is that because of the current ordinance that exists in the area? >> that is directly related to mayor garcettis decision and the city council to not enforce any of the restrictions about camping in public spaces, and we have to regulate and reclaim all of these public spaces or as you see , anarchy is what's ensuing, yet they still refuse to admit the obvious. >> wow so they get to defund the police, and say they don't want the actual cops there to enforce laws but they get to

have vigilante justice within these encampments. also, target, walgreens and a lot of the other stores in area are starting to close because of the theft, allowing people to run in and steal whatever they want if it's under a certain amount because they won't be prosecuted or arrested. >> well the architect of that is proposition 47 is our district attorney george gascon, when he was in san francisco, it worked really well in san francisco when they are being overrun by homelessness and lawlessness and now in hada he's the did a that has to prosecute and he's decided not to prosecute misdemeanors and people are realizing wow, there's no laws so i'll can do whatever i want. that's where we are. >> even when these stores decide to hire security they are put at risk too when they try to stop these folks that's why they are just stepping out of the way , sheriff. >> exactly and that's the sad thing.
5:25 am
the big stores can under write some of the losses not all of them like cvs if they are closing or walgreens but the mom and pop stores they just close their doors and they are out of business. >> let's just get this straight you work, get the money to start your own business, and then the government allows people to come in, steal it, won't replace it, won't prosecute the people, they come in and do it again and you're just left to fend for yourself. >> yeah and not only that, when people start realizing there's no point in calling police, they'll celebrate it, look crime is reduced we have less incidents, they are just the being reported and they will actually congratulate themselves , that's how tragic it is. >> sheriff it makes you wonder if that's part of the plan. is that how they pad their stat toss show one thing, it's just unbelievable. i'm out of time, thank you so much for your service. >> you got it. >> still ahead, arkansas, the latest to join the growing list of states sending reinforcement to the border. senator tom cotton reacts,

rachel: welcome back to fox & friends. well overnight, rescue crews resumed looking for victims after the rest of the collapsed condo tower is demolished. charles watson is live in surfside with how officials think this will help the search for survivors. charles? reporter: good morning, rachel. the remnants of champlain towers south came down in the matter of seconds after about a day of preparation. demolition crews imploded what was left of the 13 story tower just after 10:30 sunday night. you see the explosives go off and the building comes down as a plume of dust fills the air, and it was thick. i could see it from my hotel about six blocks away, officials were racing to bring that
5:31 am
remaining section of the building down before any impact of tropical storm elsa could be felt. >> in terms of the impact for surfside which we're obviously very concerned about could see some gusts, but it has tracked west over the last day and a half, moreso than the initial forecast and so we'll just keep watching that and we'll be ready, we're prepared. reporter: and rescue crews are keeping an eye on that storm as well as they continue their search for 121 people who are still unaccounted for at the collapse site. this i in north miami beach and another in miami beach, were forced to close and evacuate hundreds of residents after structural issues were discovered at both buildings over the weekend, and will, if there is something good for folks to linger on here in the miami area, the national hurricane center has tropical storm elsa trending a little bit
5:32 am
more west, so this area could likely miss a direct impact. back to you, will. will: good news charles you've been all over this story thank you so much for the latest. gwen berry, the athlete who gained infamy, during her national anthem protest is facing backlash over her past defensive tweet, but her defense is capturing even more attention because as the olympic hammer thrower compares herself now to supreme court justice brett kavanaugh. tweeting i can relate to kavanaugh and agree, there's a lot of stuff i don't do like i did when i was 18 or 20. here to react former nfl player and the ceo of the brewer group, jack brewer. interesting comparison, compar ing herself to the supreme court justice. i do think there's an underlying point here. do we indulge in cancel culture and look into everybody's past and find out what we can find? i think gwen berry might deserve condemnation for what she did in the present, turning her back on the national anthem. what do you think, jack, what should we focus on here? >> right now, i really feel
5:33 am
sorry for her, because it's clear that some type of confusion, look at pictures and photos of her draped in the flag , that was just four years ago, loving this country, celebrating america, being proud to be an american and then all of a sudden, this woke culture has just completely distorted her mind. you start feeling sorry for her. you start wanting to pray for her, because you know, somethings just not right in her way of thinking, and it just shows us what we're facing with this culture, with this new culture that is embracing all of this hate and this division, it's like they speak out to find ways to divide us, and this is not good. i mean, going into the olympic games -- will: real quick you're making a fascinating point so three or four years ago you could see pictures of gwen berry holding up the flag and
5:34 am
literally draping herself in it and then it changes. do you think, really quickly, it's opportunism? is it just like oh, that's the fashionable movement of the moment or has something really changed? have people changed and now they , in the past, really honestly, 12 months decide the american experiment is evil? >> i think that this leftist mentality has warped her mind. i think its warped the minds of many people, but yeah, i think that it's the culture, has figured out a way to change her perspective on this country. its brain washed them and i think this is the example of what things like crt, critical race theory, this is what it will do to our children, if we allow it. will: i said i wanted to ask you about shakari richardson, she's the olympic sprinter who tested positive for marijuana. she's been suspended from the olympics, and nike is backing her and will continue to support her through this time. jack, do you know what's
5:35 am
fascinating is theres a lot of outrage online about being suspended, some call it racist, i think some are calling it sexist, whatever. when the truth is she's the one handling this in the right way. she's taking accountability for this issue. >> i applaud her, i applaud her right now. i think it's a time where we should focus on rules that need to be changed. should you be published? yeah, i couldn't smoke marijuana , we all knew that and she accepted it and at the same time we have to follow the rules but sometimes rules need to be changed and upgraded when you have more information, i think it's going to allow these athletes to take opioids for their pain and for their injuries. why would you not allow them to take a natural substance that is also a pain reliever. i think you need to bring balance and fairness here and i feel sorry for her and i also think that president biden, he comes out and gives the time for
5:36 am
him to lead, you have a lot of people still suffering because of pre-historic marijuana laws and regulations. this is the time to step out in front of that and at least try to advocate for these athletes for more fairness. will: right. it's not hard to conclude the rule is flawed, the rule should be changed in the future at the same time it is a rule and if you break the rule, you suffer the consequences. that's not being a sheep, suffer ing the consequences from breaking a bad rule. it makes you an adult. it's a child who expects to break a rule and escape the consequences. jack, good stuff, man, always. thank you. >> god bless you guys. will: so captain america gets political, again. this time, calling american dream a lie, and the comic, comic book, even weighing in on immigration, our country's senator tom cotton is here to react, next.

5:40 am
5:41 am
>> you're sending up to 40 members of the arkansas national guard down to the texas border. is it fair to say that this is more of a political gesture than actually helping the situation? >> no, i disagree with that completely, and what they've given to us on the border is a political nightmare, and so it deserves a cooperative response between the states and the federal government to what's happening right now is disaster, it's a human tragedy what we're seeing with the change in policy coming out of the biden administration. will: that's arkansas governor a sa hutchinson address ing that he's one of several republican governors who now answered texas governor greg abbott's call to help, to send law enforcement to help enforce the southern border. let's bring in now arkansas gop senator tom cotton. senator thank you so much for being here. i'd love to ask you about this we've seen florida answer
5:42 am
the call, now arkansas answer the call and south dakota answer the call. south dakota is an interesting case donation the billionaire from tennessee donated the money to is support law enforcement from south dakota going to texas and that brings up some interesting conundrums that hutchinson was asked about in that interview. is it appropriate, is it the right use and i ask this in all curiosity. is that good precedent? is that bad precedent for a government to use private donations to fund law enforcement being dedicated for this purpose? >> well, will, i think that's really a question of state law, and each state may vary on how they support their national guard when they are mobilized. what i think is a real shame though is that any governor needs to send national guard troops to the border at the request of the texas governor, and then it all goes back to joe biden's failed border policies. look, texas and new mexico and
5:43 am
arizona, california maybe the literal border states but joe biden has brought the crisis of the border to all 50 states. i was in south dakota just last week and i heard from many who are worried about the drugs flowing into their communities, about the threat of illegal alien crime. we're worried about that in arkansas as well. if joe biden would simply continue construction of the border wall, rather than paying these contractors not to work, and if he would stop the flow of migrants, now hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens pouring into the country over last six months, and the texas governor wouldn't have had to put out this urgent call to support from other governors around the country. rachel: yeah. >> i want to switch to this. captain america, on how america is built on lies. you've got to hear this. this is a quote. "here is the thing about a dream a dream isn't real. i'm starting to think america actually has two dreams and one lie.
5:44 am
the first american dream is the one that isn't real, if some people expect just to be handed to them and then they get angry when it disappears when the truth is, it never really existed in the first place. it doesn't get along nicely with reality. oath oath culture, immigrants. the poor are at our best, when we keep no one out. a good dream is shared, shared radically, when something isn't shared i can become the american lie." i think this is such terrible rhetoric. it is true that we didn't live up to our documents but the documents weren't flawed. it was the human beings, right? >> yeah, i mean, lawrence, it sounds like captain america may need a demotion to lieutenant after this. this is what happens when you allow left wing activists to write your comic books, and it reflects a kind of march through our cultural institutions, comic books, schools, and indoctrinating our kids to believe that kind of none
5:45 am
nonsense. over the weekend you saw the new york times running a story about how the flag is now a divisive symbol for many americans. we should be proud of our heritage and our founding principles, 245 years ago this weekend, our founding fathers declared our independence not just because of local grievances over taxes or soldiers but because they wanted to found a new republic dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal, as abraham lincoln said, now, we haven't always achieved that practice, but our history has been one of continuingly struggling to realize those ideals. that's exactly what dr. martin luther king said in his "i have a dream" speech in which he explicitly invoked the declaration and said that we , our work is the full realization of america's founding principles. we should teach our children, whether it's in the schools, or in our movies and television or yes, our comic books, to be
5:46 am
proud of and celebrate america's traditions. rachel: right i mean the irony he's captain america, right, senator? and i think you're spot on when you talk about this is the latest thing they are taking over and it's also self-serving, because if the american dream is dead, if its rigged guess what? we need big government. we need democrats, so you're spot on there senator. thanks so much for joining us today. we always appreciate your insight. >> thanks, senator. will: thank you. >> thank you, all. >> now, today tropical storm elsa is expected to make landfall in cuba, 180,000 people evacuated the island as the storm gains strength overnight. will: three people were killed in the caribbean including a 15- year-old, and a 75-year-old in the dominican republic. a nasa astronaut shared these images of elsa from the international space station. rachel: florida declared a state of emergency for 15 counties assett el is expected to hit the gulf coast tomorrow and
5:47 am
wednesday. meteorologist adam klotz is here with our fox weather forecast. adam what's going on? >> adam: hey, good morning guys beautiful in new york city but as you said the big weather story now continues to be tropical storm elsa, that is spinning just south of the island of cuba. it's going to be crossing over the island today and when it makes that move it's really going to become clear where exactly that system is going to track but this is our current forecast track and you see it by getting into tuesday morning, running a few western store of florida, the western coast of florida, likely not making landfall until wednesday at this point getting up north of the tampa area, of course that could shift a little bit, but as we stand right now, we've got tropical storm warnings across the florida key, stretching up to naples and fort myers, that'll continue to stretch north as this system moves north , it's going to start to see maybe outer bands of rain here monday evening into early tuesday morning, but you're not seeing that real heavy rain, guys, start to move through the florida keys until tuesday morning. of course, we will be watching it as it makes that move for now , back into you.

5:54 am
my head and wondering what is going on in this amazing country that we have. rachel: you know, aaron, it went viral because you have tapped into something we're all feeling we're all feeling that anger but also, that sadness for what we're losing. one of the things i found interesting about your biography and your story is that you got your love for country but also your love for the country, from your grandfather who told you all of the stories when he was in world war ii. country music is a storytelling genre. how much of this is happening to america, because we are not telling these stories about our goodness and our greatness any more to our children. >> you know, i think that we're not talking enough. i think that we're not communicating enough with each other. i think that, you know, together

5:56 am
people feel and that's the point you've obviously tapped into something as rachel said that so many people feel. the inspiration of what it is to be an american, the fear that we're losing what it is to be american and who gets to define, who tells our story, are we defined by our good, by what we've done is not just good but unique in this history of the human experiment or by what is bad? so with all that being said you've tapped into something. really quickly, aaron, how surprised are you by how its been received? >> you know, you're always surprised when success happens. will: we're up against it, aaron i'm sorry. >> i was grateful to hit a nerve, and i hope i did with everybody. will: you did. rachel: you did. will: more "fox & friends."
