on? >> todd: intrigue grows. you are watching "fox and friends first," i'm todd piro. >> carley: and i'm carley shimkus. our exclusive interview with donald trump is coming up. biden administration is asking for another $30 billion for covid relief efforts. >> todd: democrats are increasingly divided on mandates. griff jenkins joins us with the new details. >> griff: good morning, despite covid-19 cases dropping, the white house says now is not the time to ease up on the spending asking congress for an additional $30 pillion. >> we have sufficient funds to respond to the current omicron surge, our goal is to ensure we're well prepared to stay ahead of the virus. we've been in ongoing conversations about what the needs look like. >> griff: according to the ap $18 billion would go to vaccine and treatment and $5 billion for

testing, $3 billion to cover the uninsured and $4 billion for future variants. battle over mask mandate drives wedge within the democratic party with several blue states bucking cdc guidance and other democratic officials ignore their own rules. >> you know, you have seen a lot of recently democrats, officials in settings where they are not wearing masks, a lot of young kids around. should be up to parents and guardians about whether or not toddlers have to wear masks. it shouldn't be up to the biden mask police. >> griff: this as more and more democrats look at them. kathleen rice becoming the 30th democrat to announce she will not run in the midterm. rice saying, i will not run for re-election to congress, i will remain focused on protecting democracy and serving my constituents throughout the rest

of my term. get ready for a possible spending showdown at the end of this week. group of senators threatening to holdup deadline over federal vaccine mandates and want to defund those mandates. todd and carley. >> carley: proceed with caution, former obama aid offers help tos president biden. david axelrod says the people want to hear less about. you simply cannot job own americans into believing things are better than they feel. maybe enticing for president biden to upon paint the situation through rose-colored glasses, but americans won't believe him is what axelrod is saying. >> todd: i'm flum oxed as to where we need another $30

billion. it has been well publicized we haven't spent the other money for covid. biden is throwing money at the problem to make it look like he's doing something and to cover for the fact that his party is so divided when it comes to how we respond to the pandemic or what is left of the pandemic at this point. you want to do something? open up. go along with what your other democratic governors are doing throughout the country. eliminate mask mandates and vaccine mandates and move on with our lives. >> carley: l.a. county is lifting the outdoor mask mandate, late to the party on that woon. california set to drop the school mask mandate in two weeks. president biden it still saying it is too soon to do that. the cdc is saying it is too soon. something else president biden said yesterday of note, he said if russia invades ukraine, gas prices will go up further.

right now current average $3.50, a year ago $2.50. up $1 from just a year ago. so we are inching closer and closer to $4 a gallon gas prices and it doesn't have to be this way. why would our gas prices increase for prices happening across the country when we can be energy independent here at home the way we were under the trump administration? when david axelrod is talking about the state of the union address and how president biden will frame things, obviously he wants to talk about his accomplishment. the mask mandate and gas prices affecting everybody is what people are going to care about and say things aren't going too well. >> todd: if only there was a way we could have avoided this. oh, yeah, there was a way, we could have kept what we were doing under trump, keep drilling in the u.s. and upon surrounding

water, come up with the gas on our own, become energy independent. i want to get to the kathleen rice retirement f. we can pop up that full screen, showing all the democrats leaving congress. we are running out of room on that graphic. we are running out of room. >> carley: looks like a yearbook. >> todd: it does. she sees the writing on the wall. others are still sticking to their guns and do not see the writing on the wall. it will be wild come november. >> carley: fox news exclusive. former president donald trump calling the revelation from john durham's probe the crime of the century. >> todd: and hillary client's science is deafening as she dodges questions. brooke singman joins us live with exclusive details, brooke. >> brooke: i spoke exclusively with former president donald trump and he calls on the justice department to release remaining records related to the original trump russia probe.

trump telling me they should declassify absolutely, especially in light of what has just happend and what has been revealed. bill barr was told to declassify records in regard to surveillance of the election in 2016. the latest filing is just the beginning, telling me "you are going to see a lot of other things happening having to do with what is just a continuation of the crime of the century." and house minority leader mccarthy agrees, vowing to dig deeper if republicans win back the house in november. mccarthy calling durham's investigation "essential to getting to the truth," and protecting our democracy. he isn't alone. republicans want answers about the client campaign and calling out the media. >> the media needs to do their job, talk about what is coming out and hold people accountable.

>> not surprise the networks haven't been interested in the story, makes democrats and hillary client look bad. >> brooke: hillary clinton caught dodging questions about the special counsel's filing. listen. >> did you pay to spy on the trump campaign? when will you comment on the spying allegations, hillary? did you pay to have him spied on? >> brooke: former secretary of state simply waving as she arrived in new york city with a film crew ahead of tomorrow's democratic convention, where she is expected to give the keynote address. carley and todd. >> todd: brooke singman running circles around every other news investigation. and devin nunes has this to say about the findings. >> clearly anyone able to get into the white house, no matter who the president is something unprecedented, those should be the most guarded communications

in this country. this is going to take, hopefully durham gets more and more information out, can bring more indictments. it will take my buddies in the congress to spend years looking into this and just how did this happen? how can contractors have communications of americans all over the country? it is frightening. >> todd: nunes, like john ratcliffe expecting many durham indictments in the near future. >> carley: fox news alert. the suspect that reportedly tried to ram into nypd officers with his car yesterday. detectives reportedly opened fire on the vehicle after trying to pull the car over. the vehicle is believed to be connected to robberies. no injuries were reported, he did escape. >> todd: in louisville, attempted murder of mayoral

candidate. greenberg's shirt was grazed by a bullet, but he was not hurt. he is a supporter of defunding the police and worked on campaigns in kentucky. last summer he went missing for two weeks, his family claimed they were ill equipped to search for him. >> todd: marianne rafferty is live. >> marianne: good morning. democratic leaders continue to deflect blame for rising crime in wake of the murder of christina yuna lee. >> press sect. psaki: we've seen this rise because of hate-filled rhetoric and language around the origins of the pandemic.

that is something that asian americans across the country have been feeling. >> marianne: assamad nash was arraigned monday in the stabbing death of lee. nash was out on bail at the time. mayor eric adams says nash is good example of why bail reform is necessary and lashing out at the media over lack of diversity. >> there was no arguing, no yelling and screaming. if you would have turned on the news this morning, you would have said it was all head up there. we got to be honest about that. how many blacks on the editorial board? diversify your news rooms. >> marianne: 343% rise in anti-asian crime in new york city. coming up this hour, co-found sxer ceo at catalyst edward which you, will join us.

>> todd: we don't understand, mayor adams gets best coverage of any mayor in years. >> carley: something lightfoot tried to do. it will not work. >> todd: prime minister justin trudea's actions, protesters demanding to know why trudea is invoking emergency powers and treating truckers like a threat. >> i would call it more of a demonstration, what are we guilty of? trucks parked illegally? okay. i'm not sure that warrants response from the government. >> todd: emergency act allows the canadian government to seize bank accounts and force police and towing companies to drag away trucks clogging the streets of canada's capital. >> carley: and tucker carlson make thanksgiving point saying trudea and biden have a lot in common. >> this new class of dictator seizes power through bureaucracy, they never raise

their voices. they don't wave their arm. they smile and tell you they are tekting democracy and public health. they are passive aggressive, but no less dangerous. one morning you wake up and they have cancelled your job and seized your bank account for disagreeing with them thchlts is architecture of tyranny, it is happening in canada and in the united states and will be used against us, bet on it. >> todd: texas governor greg abbott calling out drug cartels. >> texas is doing everything we can to prevent deadly fentanyl from coming into our state. most fentanyl comes from china through mexico brought across the border by cartels, it is infiltrating our communities. >> todd: texas is treating fentanyl related death says as poisoning. fentanyl is leading cause of

death for people ages 18 to 45 in 2013. 1300 were killed by the drug last year. >> carley: texas got resources to help build the border wall. 1700 steel wall panels are in the hands of texas governor greg abbott after being abandoned by the white house. they went through application process to take possession of them and won. they will be used to continue texas border wall in the near term. they were paid for, so why not. >> todd: fascinating turn of events there. you will not believe this story. a little girl, that little girl, missing since 2019, found alive. the most shocking part of the story is where they found her. >> carley: texas is taking on zuckerberg in a fight for your privacy. talking to attorney general about ken paxton about his lawsuit against facial recognition on facebook. >> todd: you see faces on the screen, you have sean duffy,

co-founder at catalyst edward which yo chu. the governor and mayor eric adams released statements saying they stand with the asian community. you say the mesdzages aren't good enough. what is your message this morning? >> thank you for having me, new york city is supposed to being the most welcoming, diverse and best city in the world and two women have been senselessly murdered while walking up their stairs and waiting for a subway, this is terrifying. mayor adams says new yorkers feel as if a sea of violence is engulfing our city and no one wants to live in a city where that term is used and that is actually happening. i'm agreeing to speak out because i want the governor and mayor to hear loud and clear that c.e.o.s and citizens who are responsible for the success of this economy are not okay with what is happening.

>> carley: you are calling on c.e.o.s and companies to put pressure on the governor and the mayor to act. how would they go about doing that? >> that is a question i've been asking myself since hearing about christina on sunday. it is not easy, a lot of policies are happening and attempts to do it. my hope in doing this was couple of things, inspire c.e.o.s to speak out. my post got over three million views and for me, i want people to continue talking about it. if there is way to drive innovation, whether having somebody create ring that will sound an alarm miles away or having ceo of uber where drivers walk citizens to their door, i want something to happen from this, even if it means c.e.o.s of companies have to rally together to make change themselves. >> carley: if you look at new york city crime stats, total

crime up 50%, shooting incidents up 40%. robberies up 38.1%. you have a wife and daughter live nothing new york city, are you worried about their safety? >> yeah, absolutely. that is another why when i saw christina's news, it hit me hard, my daughter and wife are asian, i am nervous when they leave the house. i've been here a decade, i never felt nervous when she goes and walks the dog or go to the park. for me, this is the greatest city in the world tochlt feel that way and to feel nervous when your family members are leaving is unacceptable and a very scary feeling. >> carley: without a doubt, many families live the same way and cities across the country. i spoke to christina yuna lee's

landlord and he says lawmakers who push soft on crime policies are out of touch with communities they serve. do you feel that way? >> yeah, to be honest, i live in a pretty nice neighborhood. i will not share on national television where, but in this neighborhood, there is security guards and people walking all the time, walking their dogs, i'm nervous when i leave my sxarment i've never felt that way before. i think the amount of people that are leaving our cities for other states and the expectations we want to create a great economy, my hope is, can we work together with government officials to make this city really great and actually make this a place where people want to be and for me, that is number one priority that we're missing out on. >> carley: i think you're on to something with c.e.o.s pressuring lawmakers, edward, you have the platform and are

using it well. >> todd: time for words has long since passed. crime crisis from big city streets to american schools. one maryland district, more than 1000 crimes report third degree year alone. talking to a concerned dad about the devastating impact of defunding campus police. it is okay for the rich and famous to do it at the super bowl. l.a. times says it is too soon to take masks off in the classroom. the op ed that is getting a lot of reaction this morning. don't go anywhere. ♪ a must in your medicine cabinet! less sick days! cold coming on? zicam is the #1 cold shortening brand! highly recommend it! zifans love zicam's unique zinc formula. it shortens colds! zicam. zinc that cold!

yesterday to explain what it is like to raise kids in a democratic city. >> it's a dumpster fire. the school board is focused on everything, except reopening schools. it is a nightmare. >> carley: san francisco mayor london breed will appoint three replacements in the coming days and they will likely take office in mid-mark. >> todd: could this be harsh ifrjer of things to come in november. after pulling cops from school hallways, spike in crime has districts reevaluateing and brings officers back to campus. over 1000 911 calls were made in the first four months of class. marvin dickerson, and rudy perez, vice president of national association of school resource officers both join me now. thanks to both of you for being here. rudy, what did these schools think would happen? >> i honestly can't tell you

what the thought process is, but i tell you right now, there is buyer's remorse. a friend of mine, with the fop, as we discuss this, people are regretting not putting sros on campuses and that is a very challenging and alarming thing. decisions were made and now made on lives of students and finally being hurt on campuses. >> todd: my question for marvin, as a parent, how infuriating woke administrators put their social agenda over your kids' safety. >> as a parent, my top priority is making sure that my kids, when they leave my home to go to school are safe. it is incumbent on every parent in montgomery county to make sure elected officials take seriously their obligations to provide a safe place for kid when is they are in their

facilities. and with over 1700, approximately 1700 cases, calls for assistance in the first four months of school, it is very evident that it requires sro's to be on site to deal with these issues. we have more guns in the hands of kids in our local community. we have more violence in our schools. there are fights, weapons, robberies, these things are happening in our schools. in a county such as montgomery and we have elected officials with their head in the sand. it is time to pull their heads out of the sand and deal with the reality our kids are faced with day in and day out. >> todd: we've been scrolling the various crimes, these are not like getting shoved in a lock sxer getting your arm

punched. we have sex assaults, regular assaults, threats, how do your kids learn in an environment where they are worried about their safety? >> well, it is difficult. i will tell you, it puts a lot of responsibility on the parents to make sure they are reinforcing their values and themes at home, but more importantly, parents like myself have to hold these school administrators and elected officials accountable. i for one, plan on doing that, i've been speaking out about this issue, reaching out to our county council, school board officials, to anyone that will listen because i know that what can happen when you don't provide the level of protection these kids need in schools. >> todd: parents like you need to step up. rudy, did you ask yourself how sro's, school resource officers

went from essential following sandy hook to ah, we don't want them and they are expendable, just a few years later? >> it is absolutely detrimental to the job. police officers, sro's are absolutely resilient and one thing i can say is when you remove something from an ecosystem something invasive comes in and hurts it. you have to have multiple disciplinary approach in these aspects. we got to create a community of safety, culture of safety in our schools. >> todd: rude and he marvin, keep up the fight, if we don't fight for our kids, it seems nobody else will. thank you. carley. >> carley: los angeles liberal leaders face criticism for breaking mask rules at the super bowl, schoolchildren will continue wearing masks, even outside.

the district keeping its outdoor mandate on kids despite the county lifting some restrictions today. countless celebrities were caught maskless at sunday's game even though health officials ordered everyone in attendance to wear a mask. the l.a. times says school shoulds keep the mandate in place. the paper's editorial board writing, "schools are doing fine with masks, dropping mandates now would be premature," and the piece says it is fine for kids to wear masks because they don't complain about it and they are used to. california will reark sess the mask mandate at the end of february. >> todd: that is not the experience i'm seeing, the viral video, release the mask. those kids were happier than if santa walked in bringing candy and the easter bunny. >> carley: i spoke to the teach whore filmed that, she said it was a great moment. she didn't expect how happy the

kids would be and was happy to see it. >> todd: maybe the l.a. time shoulds have spoken to kids about the article. and alec baldwin is being sued, his response to the lawsuit is leaving people shocked. we'll share it with you. >> carley: and justin trudea evoking emergency power to shut down the freedom convoy, could america be next? kara frederick joins us next live. thanks for bringing me with you guys today, mr. and mrs. lopez. not a problem, josh. hey, you two. check out all these camera views in my silverado i can see in front of me, behind me, on either side of me. and it has this cam, so i can see if there's any funny business going on. you see any funny business going on? no, sir. let's have a great day! the chevy silverado offers eight cameras with up to 15 different views. find new views. find new roads. chevrolet.

border when ukraine is not threatening russia. president biden said he was not able to rerifiy and invasion remains possible. if it does happen, there would be high cost for all. >> president biden: i will not pretend this will be painless, could be impact on energy prices. if russia attacks ukraine, it will be met with international condemn nagsz. russia chose needless death and destruction. >> amy: russian president putin signalled he is open for diplomacy, he met with the new german chancellor yesterday and he was defiant. >> do we want war or not? of course not. that is why we have offered proposals to start the negotiation process, should should lead to graument providing equal security for everybody, including our

country. >> amy: now neither side is budging on its core demands so this still is, todd and carley, very much ongoing situation. secretary austin has just arrived in nato for meetings with his counterparts and russia defense minister has gone to syria to greet troops there, he may be trying to signal that he's moved on to something else. we will see. todd and carley, back to you. >> todd: interesting develop ments today. thank you. former ambassador, nikki haley slamming -- represent china in the olympics. you got to pick a side, you are either american or chinese and they are two very different countries. i are standing for freedom or you are standing for human rights abuses. she has dodged questions on her

citizenship. carley. >> carley: civil liberties groups in canadian slamming the emergency act. joining me is kara frederick, research fellow at heritage foundation. i think a lot of people in the u.s. are looking at canada and saying, thank god that will never happen here. how do you feel about this? >> well, i think american citizens should be weary of that sentiment. there are a couple things happening and first and foremost, the scariest ones that should send a chill up american spines is the fact canada is normalizing the targeting of main-stream citizens for their viewpoints with counter terrorism tools, calling them extremists because they have a certain thought pattern. i would say american citizens should be worried about this because we see the seeds thaf

happening here. look at national school board association calling parents who oppose critical race theory in schools, domestic extremist. doj setting up domestic terrorism for anti-authority ideology and department of homeland security bulletin that classified use or spreading of disinformation, misinformation or malinformation on social media as potential terrorist activity there is chaos on both borders right now, we should look to the north and see what they are doing and know it is happening here beyond americans. >> carley: what happened to caring about freedom of speech? you see on college campuses, students care more about safe spaces than wanting to debate somebody with differing view. what happens to our country long-term because of this? >> i'm afraid the next

generation will not reap the benefits of the first amendment. as we've seen with the government and tech companies working hand in hand, they no longer have a one justice system for all, right? two-tier justice system, one for people who believe what the biden administration believes or whatever the yedology is saying is right today and others who are more critical and like actually we are skeptical about the with you -- wuhan lab leak or the hunter biden laptop is misinformation, maybe it is real. you can see freedom of expression is being chipped away at by the marriage of the government and big tech companies to police speech. simple as that. >> carley: you are right. a lot of people say social media companies are private and can make their own rules. if they are doing the bidding of the democratic party, when is

that censorship? >> right. you had jen psaki saying we are working with facebook to purge disinformation posts. when does it end? >> carley: you make an excellent point, karathere is chaos on both sides of our border. thank you for joining us this morning. >> thank you, carley. >> todd: is president biden agenda too toxic for democrats? david axelrod, the former obama guy, is warning biden he is sounding out of touch. we'll get sean duffy's thoughts on that. >> carley: texas taking the fight to facebook, stealing the platform for stealing personal information. ken paxton is leading that lawsuit, he is coming up next. ♪

investigation into her employer. jeff zucker's girlfriend resigned from cnn after third party investigation into issues associated with chris cuomo and former governor andrew cuomo, finding zucker and chris cuomo violated standards and practices, complicated stuff there. >> todd: working through a check list on journalistic over there. texas is suing meta because of facebook facial recognition program. joining us now, texas attorney general ken paxton brought that lawsuit on monday. what do you allege facebook did and how did they do it? >> yeah, we allege they violated statellow, deceptive trade practices act and misled people and told them they were not capturing information and

violated 2009 statute for legislature that says they could not capture or use bioidentifiers without their consent. they were not allowed to transfer other parties and had to destroy certain period of time, violation of state law and done by facebook. >> when you say biometric identifiers, examples include retina scan, fingerprints, record of face fweometro, what makes a person unique. how much could this cost facebook in the end? >>the numbers are staggering, it could be hundreds of billions of dollars. this is something texas consumers, this is harm to them, in the like a social security number you could change or drivers license number you could change, once they have information and spread it around, forever your face geometro or fingerprints or

whatever biometric identifier, it is out there for good. >> todd: have you heard of other states following suit? >> yeah, illinois has the first lawsuit i saw several years ago, settled with facebook for i think $650 million. we are heading toward trial in a year and i expect to be in front of texas jury in the next year. >> todd: i feel like this is a question i ask in almost every sig o segment we do about big tech. this one applying to facebook. why did facebook think this would be a good idea in the first place? >> you know, i think they just saw the numbers, they could make so much money using this information. i think they felt they have such an advantage, they are such a large company, they have so much money, i think a lot of hub rus or arrogance thinking whatever happened, they had so much money and were so powerful, they could do whatever they wanted around

the country. we have a statute about this in every state. >> todd: it does seem like individual states have statutes to protect their citizens. it seems like a lot has fallen in the hands of ag's like yourself and ags and governors are moving forward trying to police these big tech entities. why aren't the feds doing more? >> that's a great question. i've heard lots of money is being thrown around in congress. it seems like they have been stifled from protecting consumers, unlike many states like texas and illinois and others who stepped forward to make sure consumers' privacy rights are protected. >> todd: are you confident something like section 230 reform has any chance of seeing the lights of day on capitol hill? >> every time i talk to a senator or congressman, they

tell me, we are glad you are doing something about it, i don't know if we'll get anything done up here given money pushed around by tech companies. >> todd: people talk tough on this, but not doing anything in d.c. you are doing something in austin. ag ken paxton, we appreciate your time. thank you. >> carley: hillary clinton arrive nothing new york city with a camera crew before a speech at the democratic convengsz. she didn't have anything to say to the daily mail's camera when asked about the durham investigation. >> todd: reacting to the clinton scandal and joined by congressman andy harris, he is probing dhs secretary mayorkis on illegal immigrants being released. we'll ask him about that live, coming up, don't go anywhere.
