>> carley: a dire warning from ukrainian officials that ammo could explode at the chernobyl nuclear disaster site. they are demanding russia withdraw troops immediately. workers say invaders kicked up radioactive dust on their way in that is likely to kill them. you are watching "fox and friends first," i'm carley shimkus. >> todd: i'm todd piro. we have an exclusive interview with the american held captive

by russian forces during the war in ukraine. he's free and here to tell us everything. we're speaking with the mayor of warsaw, who is take nothing refugees in the invasion. >> carley: griff jenkins is live on the ground in lviv. griff. >> griff: the dire warning around chernobyl coming from ukraine's deputy prime minister, calling on the un to declare demilitarization zone around the former nuclear site as the un's nuclear watchdog group, iaea, has a mission on the ground in ukraine. fight nothing this country entering the fifth week, there is hope for progress toward peace in the negotiations in istanbul, but nobody is believing russia's claim they are backing off on the capital

in kyiv. in an address last night, president zelenskyy was cautioning against accepting that as the pentagon press secretary john kirby wasn't buying it and kate bedingfield had this to say, listen here. >> i think we should be clear-eyed about the reality of what is happening on the ground and no one should be fooled by russia's announcement. we believe any movement around kyiv is redeployment and not withdrawal and the world should be prepared for a major offensive against other areas of ukraine. >> griff: meanwhile, carley and todd, no signs of peace in the south and in the east, you can see in the seaport of mykolaiv, russian rocket striking regional government building killing 12 people, wounding 33 others and another rocket landing in a playgrounding blasting out windows and walls.

ukrainian forces continue some success and counter offensive saying they have taken ground back in the irpin area east of kyiv, ukrainians saying they have pushed russian out there. and russia media reporting they had to evacuate two russian areas due to ukraine firing missile into russian territory. that is significant, because it is first we've heard from sources on both sides they fired ukrainian missile to russia, taking the fight to them. that ukrainian soldier early in the invasion telling a russian war ship where they could go, using an expletive, that soldier being awarded a medal of merit as officials identified him and

honored him. >> carley: well-deserved honor of merit. bring in the mayor of warsaw, poland. mayor, thank you for joining us show this morning. you say the refugee crisis in warsaw is getting worse and worse by the day. how so? >> well, we've welcomed 300,000 refugees and that's a huge number. that is like 15% of my population in warsaw. of course we are dealing with it, solidarity of the people has been immense and work done by the volunteers and services of my city is exemplary and we are helping as much as we can. we are at capacity and if there is escalation in ukraine, we have to deal with second wave of refugees issue the situation will become very, very difficult. that is why we need a relocation system where we all in europe and elsewhere, we share the

burden. ukrainians are fighting for freedom and we need to step up and do our bid. >> todd: how many more refugees will you take in? >> as many as we have to, we declared we are going to help everyone. if you come to warsaw, you will see there are no refugees on the streets, they are at people's homes because people in poland and warsaw are extraordinary and accept ukrainians into their homes. the city services are very much stretched, all my social workers working with ukrainians, we have created centers and my psychologists work with ukrainians, we have granted ukrainians almost like citizen-like status, free education, free healthcare and so on. the conditions would deteriorate if we accept more.

i need the city to function properly, if we get overextended, solidarity will end sooner, we need a system in place, we need the un ajengsies ajengsies -- agencies. this is very much needed, we need to share the burden. >> carley: speaking of the president, he was in warsaw over the weekend and made a powerful speech. at the end he said putin can no longer remain in power. how did you feel about that comment and do you share that view? >> most importantly, you have to understand the level of emotion. president biden and i, we were with refugees and talked to them and heard heartbreaking stories from women and children escaping

bombs, children asking the president whether they will see their fathers again. it was really, really very intense. i think that what president biden was doing, he was expressing outrage. of course i've heard secretary antony blinken's words when he said this is not the goal of american policy to remove putin from power, but we need to be strong when it comes to calling what is evil evil and when it comes to sending a very strong message that the west stands united. putin wanted to divide us, it is important we stand together and leaders such as biden and other prime minister and president give testimony to what we believe in. end of the day, ukrainians are fighting for freedom and values and for the stability of the transatlantic lines.

>> todd: words are great, but you mentioned you need help from the un. what is taking so long? >> the problem is the polish central government didn't call for authorization of the agencies to work, it didn't call for relocation, because it wants to do it alone. no government, let alone, a city, can do it itself. most of agencies are in place. we need to gets the system in place. everyone has to step up. the end of the day, i receive phone calls from ukraine, from my friends and the mayor of kyiv and others who say we can focus on fighting when you take care of our children and our families. we simply cannot do it together in warsaw or poland. we are doing our best, but we

need to share the burden and need mechanisms, which were tested around the world. one un igency, that is what we need, dwigsz of labor. >> carley: thank you for joining us. president biden -- even bigger mess trying to clean up his comments overseas with another gaffe at home. >> todd: president says u.s. troops are training ukrainian troops in poland. mark. >> there is no direct effort to train ukrainian troop necessary poland even though president biden suggested that is what is happening. on monday, the president responded to a question from peter doocy saying he just met with americans in neighboring poland. the pentagon is

clarifying, saying they are not training, they are liaisons. some lawmakers are not buying it, including james comer. >> when you make gaffes that are details classified information that puts american troops at risk and americans at risk of retaliation of russian cyber attacks, it's a big problem. >> the administration is sending weapons to ukraine with shipments arriving, including bullets and body armor. some thing this is not happening fast enough and they are sending a letter to jake sullivan. the u.s. mission must go on defending against aggression. ukraine can win this fight if we help them win this fight. there are reports u.s. and allies may consider additional aid to ukraine in the weeks ahead, the discussions appear to

be just getting started. the house and senate are expected to get classified briefings on where the war stands today. >> todd: minnesota teacher tissuing yshg -- tyler jacobs -- worried sick about her son. >> it scares me like no tomorrow, my worst nightmare is coming true, i may never see my son again. >> carley: today tyleshg r is free and joins us for an exclugsive interview next. can t migraine attacks. you can't prevent what's going on outside that's why qulipta™ helps what's going on inside. qulipta™ is a pill. gets right to work to prevent migraine attacks and keeps them away over time. qulipta™ blocks cgrp, a protein believed to be a cause of migraine attacks.

>> todd: minnesota native tyler jacob getting released just days ago, as he tried to escape ukraine earlier this month. his mother was worried to death about her son when we spoke two weeks ago. >> it makes me angry, he didn't do anything wrong, just living a life with his wife there and help others with his teaching skills. >> todd: tyler has returned to the u.s. to see his mother, he joins us with an exclusive

interview. welcome home. why did the russian soldiers take you off that bus? >> so they told me that the reason they took me off the bus was because i didn't show them my passport, which i believe they saw, i was the only american among the turkish citizens and they decided they thought i was a spy, they pulled me aside and detained me for 10 days. >> todd: did you understand what was happening at first? >> absolutely not. they had a translator, who was supposed to be on my side, i don't believe he was, there were document necessary complete russian, if i asked him to explain it to me, he would give me a smallgist of what it was. >> todd: what is going through your mind as all of this is happening? >> the only thing, i was getting angry at the beginning, i'm like, i need to leave, i need to

get home to start things for my family. after i realized i wasn't going anywhere, ig started to get worried because it is russia and who knows what they do to american people. >> todd: sure. you are detained. take us through the steps. what happens after you are detained and realize i'm not going anywhere any time soon. >> at first i was like, i was concerned, it is russian prison, i've never been in prison to begin with. i was like very, very worried, but then realized once they started questioning me, they couldn't find anything against me, i'm just an american teacher who chased his wife in a foreign country. i was okay after the third day of them questioning me, they knew nothing was going to happen. it was a scary time to be stuck in a place like russian prison.

>> todd: were there times you thought, this is it, i will never see my wife or family again? >> actually, yes, on wednesday they found a resume on my computer i used as like a template for a new school i was trying to start working for. the guy had some government background and they thought i was part of blackwater or like an american spy since i have military experience. for 3-1/2 hour, he continually told me, you know who this is, i kept telling him, i don't know who this is, i thought i was going to be stuck in russia forever. >> todd: i can't imagine what that feeling is like. what is a russian prison like? >> so it is only about 15 feet wide by 25 feet long. there is a small like seven foot

by seven foot box with a hole in the ground for you to use, a bunk bed on one side and bed on the other. you are in a room with three people, that is small, they smoke cigarettes. beds are made out of metal and they feed you liquid until supper time, which is chicken and buckwheat. >> todd: was there ever any violence? were you scared for your life in the prison resulting from other prisoners? >> surprisingly no. i kind of was expecting something because it is russia. i was in a city that is not like a huge city, not like moscow, the people i was there with were good people. there was one person that was with me, who helped me reach out to my family through instagram. he is still in contact with me and he told

me that the second day after i left there was a guy that came in and had been committed to seven years in prison. he said his last couple days were very scary. >> todd: you saw the reaction from your mother when i had her on this program a few weeks ago, obviously your family worked to get you back home. what is next for you, your wife, your family and will you ever go back to ukraine? >> so i am ever grateful for everything that my family, that amy's office, everything everybody has done for me, it is insane the support we've had. our future plans right now, i'm trying find a way to get a degree in computer science and we are trying to move to florida. that is our rough plan. only time we gallon back to ukraine is to visit her family,

if he wasn't gem them out of there. >> how is your wife doing? >> i don't think she will calm down until the visa process is complete. >> todd: understood. what is first thing you did when you landed back on u.s. soil? >> the first thing i did was buy a coke. it is sad to say, but like the coca-cola in other country tastes like really watered down. the moment i tasted american coke, it felt like heaven. only thing i could think of was the 30 minute drive to my mom's house. >> todd: understood, glad you got that coke and more happy you are in the u.s. safe and sound after unbelievably trying ordeal. tyler jacob, thank you for joining us. best of luck to and you your family, have a great day. >> awesome. thank you. >> todd: new video showing

>> todd: marianne rafferty has the latest. >> marianne: 170,000 migrants are waiting on the mexican side for title 42 to be dropped.

once dropped, illegal crossings are expected to push past the million mark just since last october. >> in the income two or three days we will hit mill encounters along the southwest corner. >> marianne: that does not include got-aways who have not been caught. lawmakers are sounding an alarm to mayorkis, it reads, we strongly urge dhs retain title 42 authority until appropriate deterrent measures are put in place to ensure facilities and local communities will not be over dlts whelmed by increase in immigrant aksz s /* actions.

>> why would the administration give out vaccines to undocumented migrants, but not to uninsured americans? >> we have supply we need to vac nat americans. we are asking for funding to ensure we have what we need as we move forward. >> marianne: at noon texas senator jon cornyn and senators will hold a press conference on the border crisis. >> carley: thank you. let's bring in brandon judd, national border patrol president. title 42 is expected to understand today, when that happens, what will the border look like? >> it is scary. we are fighting what we've never seen before. we have fought fronts on two locations issue right now southwest border is busier than it has ever been. we are looking at locations that

have not been big in the past, such as big bend, we don't are resources to do it. if title 42 goes away, we'll be overwhelmed and have less resources. this is a scary situation, look at the number of people with criminal records, it is even scarier, very bad situation right now. >> todd: new rule out there that basically says you don't need immigration judges to do the work anymore, asylum -- >> if you look at separation of power and the way we're supposed to operate in law enforcement, you are supposed to have judicial overview for everything that happens. this is trying to take away this

judicial overview to determine whether or not somebody should be allowed to stay. nobody ever overturns themselves. if there is credible fear, it is certain they will find they need permanent asylum in the united states. shouldn't happen and it will encourage peep toll come here and take more agents out of the field and allow cartels to generate more money than they are generating right now. >> carley: todd just interviewed a mother who lost her son to an overdose. they are getting drugs into the united states, i am sure this is something you see a lot. are you expecting that to ramp up, as well? >> we do. when you look at especially

yuma, 90% of border patrol resources are not patrolling the border, they are doing administration duties, processing and watching aliens, things they are not supposed to be doing and this allows cartel free reign on the border. once title 42 goes away, that will happen everywhere, it will happen everywhere. what that will do, give cartel free reign to bring drugs across into the united states. more citizens will die because of the decision by the administration. >> carley: a big day when it comes to the border. thank you. we appreciate it. meteorologist has the fox weather forecast. hello, adam. >> tracking a big weather today, tomorrow, big news story, line of storms stretching off to the

east of dallas, but this as we get into the afternoon in daytime heating. you don't see severe weather overnight. this is area with significant risk of severe weather outbreak by this afternoon. that will mean big thunderstorms and probably tornados on the ground this afternoon. this times it out, time stamp in corner, from 2 to 6 p.m. across louisiana and into alabama, as you get later in the day. this is our tornado threat, large area there, i think we will see tornados on the ground this afternoon, fairly big weather story and we'll be watching it. >> todd: sorry i laughed when i saw you, that suit is amazing. >> carley: you both look great. my contribution. >> todd: congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez says the progressive agenda is in trouble because she doesn't think it is progressive enough.

>> carley: sean duffy will respond coming up next. sharp, stabbing pains, or an intense burning sensation. what is this nightmare? it's how some people describe... shingles. a painful, blistering rash that could interrupt your life for weeks. forget social events and weekend getaways. if you've had chickenpox, the virus that causes shingles is already inside of you. if you're 50 years or older ask your doctor or pharmacist about shingles.

>> todd: congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez calling on president biden to rule by executive action. sean duffy is fox news contributor, good morning, sean. this quote from congresswoman

alexandria ocasio-cortez. if we decide to just sit back for the rest of the year and not change people's lives, yeah, i think we're in trouble. what is your reaction to that comment from the congresswoman? >> sean: so much wrong with that, all policies that have made america worse go back to aoc. borrowing, spending, attacking energy companies, massive inflation. she had the ideas, they are fault. as a member of congress, to say disregard us, forget us, do it by yourself, we can't do it with the elected representatives. that is insanity, she wants to

demean the institution she serves. she is saying, get young progressive voters, forget independent voters. that is great, aoc, forget the independent voters, go for left wing liberal crazys and we'll see how this action turns out. >> todd: that was my question, how happy are you that aoc said this? want your thoughts on wisconsin, parents at a school district in wisconsin are ticked after this message to parents. parents are not -- where do bureaucrats come up with something like this, sean? >> sean: if this is in wisconsin, this is happening all over america. it was 55 biden and 45 trump,

democrats by 10. parents started to hear what is happen nothing schools in regard to transgenderism. parents don't have rights. if you can't trust your parents, your school teacher will be your new mom. the information and blowback is growing. there is a school board race this tuesday, three conservatives and three liberals running against each other. i think the conservatives will win. parents want to be parents. you have the best interest of your child at your heart and some random teacher doesn't know what is best for your kid. you will see pushback in middle america. this is everywhere. >> carley: last time we were on, todd promised we dolled a good wisconsin story and we did not

deliver. that will be next time, we promise. >> sean: third time is a charm. >> carley: appreciate it. words like boy and girl are considered offensive at disney theme parks, we'll show you leaked video that exposes the company's woke agenda. >> todd: cheryl casone is next.

get ready for next level entertainment. apple tv+ is now on xfinity. howdy y'all. with new apple original series and movies added every month... ...there's always something new to discover. and right now, you can get 3 months of apple tv+ free when you sign up. just say “try apple tv+” to get started. it's a movement. with xfinity, it's a way better way to watch.

>> todd: the band is back, new gallup poll shows inflation is top concern by americans by highest margin in 40 years. >> carley: cheryl casone is here. >> cheryl: good morning. no surprise the latest gallup numbers, inflation the biggest concern for americans. 17% said high prices as number one worry. highest percentage since 1985, 8% in january, 10% in february in this poll. among lower income families, 63% are very concerned. inflation is at 40-year high right now. >> todd: it is scary stuff. my take on this story, disney playing a dangerous game with core customer base. >> cheryl: why do companies go all in on this stuff?

this is what disney is doing, new woke agenda. theme parks removing all names like women and gentlemen, boys and girls. they are discussing the new strategy. >> we no longer say ladies and gentlemen and pois and girls we say dreamers of all ages. we don't want to assume someone may be presenting as female and may not want to be called princess. >> cheryl: criminalize existence in response to employee protest. i said this before on the show, it is so dangerous when companies go all the way to the extreme on some social topic of the day and that is what disney is doing right now. you don't want to alienate your

customers. >> todd: the company's brand is based on princesses, that is not a joke. >> carley: we are used to hearing about russian oligarchs, now there are chinese oligarchs and they know hunter biden. >> cheryl: the media cover-up of the findings. >> our report exposed extensive financial relationships between hunter and james biden and chinese nationals connected to the communist regime. >> cheryl: they presented a document which shows $100,000 from cefc, chinese energy company, they made the payment to hunter biden's firm. the dishonest press published

countless stories reporting on the democrat's false charge it was russian disinformation. they have the documents in their hands and now showing the american public, is the media covering it? no. >> carley: we are. more to come on that front. thank you. supreme court hearing case of a former texas state trooper who says he was forced out of his job when he started experiencing health complication due to burn pit exposure from his time serving in iraq. leroy torres, and his lawyer brian lawler join me now. good morning to you both. >> good morning. >> carley: you presented your case before the supreme court yesterday. how did it go? >> thank you for having me this morning. yesterday was just a wonderful day, finally at peace, the case

was heard. listening to oral argument for an hour and 40 minutes plus was just powerful in my sense and knowing the wheels of justice begun to turn. >> carley: give us details on the legal slice of this puzzle. why this is all the way up to the supreme court, why leroy was forced to sue and what you are hoping to get out of this? >> thanks for asking. the first piece of the puzzle, leroy was forced to sue because he was not accommodated. he came back from iraq with a debilitating lung and brain disease and couldn't perform functions as a texas state trooper and asked to be accommodated and texas didn't do that. he resigned and we filed a lawsuit. we ended with supreme court

because sovereignty immunity is large and asked the supreme court to say either all states can invoke sovereign immunity or no states can invoke sovereign immunity under statute congress passed knowing it had the power to pass that, that is where we are. >> carley: what was the read you got from the supreme court justices and when will they make a determination on this? >> tough question, knew it was coming. we're not sure. we were prepared going in. we liked our argument. we liked the responses we gave to the justices. we feel we presented a good case and the solicitor general from the united states government presented a great case, which is interesting thing, too, in our support. we just don't know.

there is no way to predict that. we like where we stand and we're happy with what we did. we just don't know what will come from this. we're optimistic is the right way to put that. >> carley: leroy, you represent a lot of injured veterans and sounds like this case is bigger than you and could impact veterans in the future who suffer from injury and may lose their job as a result. >> that is correct. many service members return from -- have returned from this 20-year war with invisible wounds from toxic exposure, it has plagued the veteran community. as citizen soldiers, those that serve part-time military have a right to return to work with limitation, they have a right to keep their employment and jobs.

>> carley: thank you both for joining us this morning, this case is definitely one to watch and we'll be tracking it. >> thanks so much for having us. >> carley: americans are looking for answers from president biden about multiple crisis at home and abroad, the president is looking at a cheat sheet. tomi lahren is here next on that. >> todd: check in with steve doocy, do you have a cheat seat? steve doocy beat me to my own joke, well played. well done, sir. >> steve: coming up on "fox and friends," a senator will join us as his state sues to understanded if the mask mandate and dennis murray reacts to ron desantis protecting parent's rights on education and lawrence jones will join us live, he said this week he didn't think will smith's oscar slap was real.

has lawrence changed his mind? we'll weigh in on that. you cant sugar coat it, inflation is driving up the price of everything in your easter basket. we will talk to a master chocolateer, who is promising not to pass the prices on to customers. todd and carley, back with their cheat sheet in a couple minutes. you are watching "fox and friends first." rheumatoid arthritis. and take. it. on... ...with rinvoq. rinvoq a once-daily pill can dramatically improve symptoms... rinvoq helps tame pain, stiffness, swelling. and for some...rinvoq can even significantly reduce ra fatigue. that's rinvoq relief. with ra, your overactive immune system attacks your joints. rinvoq regulates it to help stop the attack. rinvoq can lower your ability to fight infections,

>> what is your view of russia's announcement today that it will quote scale back its military operations near kyiv. >> i don't read anything into it until i see what their actions are we will see if they follow through on what they are suggesting negotiations. there seems to be a consensus that -- let's just see what they have to offer. >> president biden taking one single question on the war in

ukraine from a preapproved reporter after multiple slip-ups in just the past few days. >> fox nation host tomi lahren joins us now. since last we spoke the president made some big gaffes overseas and now the administration is handing him a note card. watch this. >> i want to make it clear, i wasn't then, nor am i now articulating a policy change. i was expressing the moral outrage that i feel and i make no apologies. >> you do feel that vladimir putin should be removed from power? is that what you were saying? >> i was expressing just what i said. i was expressing the moral outrage i felt towards this man. i wasn't articulating a policy change. >> this side-by-side image is a big problem for him because is he having a problem with the american people trusting him on foreign policy. this is the equivalent of taking a test in high school in which you have the answers and you still fail. i think that that, to me, is the

most disappointing, quite frankly the most terrifying part of all of this. i also want to know and the american people should want to know this as well. if he does have a talking point list because his staff and advisers don't trust him to answer on his own. the american people should know who is running our country. which one of his staff members and advisers and cabinet members, who is running our country. who is writing down the answers that he is still continues to get wrong? and not only the american people are watching this, but the world is watching this. they are hanging on his every word because what he says matters. and he, even by his staff's own admission, cannot be trusted to give correct and transparent answers. that's terrifying but also enraging. >> todd: an important point nobody voted for ron klain in november of 2020. meantime, tomi, chicago mayor lori lightfoot has a secret unit of police officers and sergeants protecting her in addition to 20 officer body guard detail as crime runs rampant in the city.

i thought it would be one or two. 71 law enforcement officers in the windy city do this. how could she go to the child of a dead child and face the parents knowing one of those 71 law enforcement officers possibly could have prevented that kid's death? >> a how could she advocate for defund the police when she knows police is needed not only for her and her community. she is okay with providing it for herself at the same time demonizing law enforcement officers though she has since changed her tune it doesn't matter. not enough just to defund the police department and have personal security for yourself because you are afraid of your own constituents and mess in a city that you created, this is also to me a slap in the face of the law enforcement officers that are repeatedly called racist. apparently they are not racist enough to be barred from protecting someone like a mayor lori lightfoot. there needs to be big changes in this country when it comes to lawlessness and also the way we discuss police officers.

we hear time and time again not enough community policing and police officers are to blame. not only do we need more officers on the street protecting average americans. we need those officers to feel supported and respected so they can do their job with support of not only the american people but most importantly the elected leaders that are supposed to advocate for them. >> todd: tomi, thank you very much. "fox & friends" starts now. ♪ >> russia claims it's scaling back its assaulted. >> but nobody's buying it. >> we all should be prepared to watch for major offensive against other areas of ukraine. >> border officials are bracing for another massive surge of illegal immigration. >> probably next few days a million encounters or appear prehence's. >> house judiciary committee enters the contents of hunter biden's laptop. >> our report expose substantial relationships bet
