thought they are coming in hot but that did not happen. pete: cala daca, alabama. "fox and friends" weekend with you, excited to be back. will: feel like we are back home. we did this year ago. rachel: we did this year ago, it was really cold, much nicer now, better weather. will: it was pouring rain and you could barely hear us. rachel: it is over. will: the cars are all around and we can give you a tour of the garage. as the lights turn on, mother nature will show you the size of this track. great set up behind us as well. it is a tradition for you to hang out with us at a big nascar race. last time we were together under circumstances such as this was the daytona 500. now we are at talladega and as

eric, i interviewed him at his first daytona 500 and interviewed him again at his last daytona 500. you know your old when you see the entire span of someone's sporting career, you think you just started and now 14, 15 years later he is retiring. rachel: we will check him out too. pete: the driver of the 2 car will be with us, we will bring you many options at the race. will: we will show you how broadcast is put together and last year was the first time. we made it a tradition to go out into the end field and have a good time. rachel: we are going to be well fed this entire weekend. and mac be on the lookout for

us and provide us a 6 pack, all we need. we are here in alabama but much is going on south of here southeast of here in florida whereas you know governor desantis has taken a strong stance not just on the sex education of the youngest kids in florida, past what the left characterized as a don't say gay bill but it doesn't say day. it is the parental rights law. disney took issue with it and took its corporate wage to attempt to stop it, to stop that bill from becoming law. ron desantis one yet again and set ultimately disney, you have a very special tax status were you are basically around country inside florida and it has been that way for 50 years and quickly moved through the legislature revoking that status so year from now disney has to play ball like any other corporation in florida.

whether it is responding to the parental rights bill or the special status of disney inside florida, not surprising the white house has taken the side of disney. president biden was in portland on the west coast on thursday. this is what he said about what is going on in florida. it is ugly. look at what has happened in florida. a word i would rather not say. they are going after mickey mouse which is not what they are doing. rachel: it is crazy what is going on. ron desantis is on the side of the people saying you corporate people who are based in burbank, california are not going to tell the people of florida what to do and he is absolutely won the hearts not

just conservative independent parents, all polling shows a significant amount of democrats who also agree with this legislation because it is so common sense that you would not want to have discussions about sex with kindergartners through third grade. mine -- this bill, it doesn't go far enough. i believe talking about sex, talking about gender fluidity, should not be done in the schools. pete: i agree with you as do most americans. it is worth highlighting, what you chose not to read. it's not becoming of the president to take the lord's name in vain. many of us were taught that as a young child. i'm not here to be holier than thou, we all have our sins but i rather the president not do so. onto the substance of the bill it is fascinating how disney on the backs of activists and the white house have characterized

this bill, most of america can understand this is about talking about sexuality and gender to children kindergarten through third grade, something like fifth grade at the minimum but this is how it is characterized. listen to karen john pierre, white house press secretary, audio only, listen to her argument against florida's parental rights and education bill. >> the don't say gay bill is crystal clear, it is wrong. is just wrong. we oppose the governor taking action against a company because their opposition to that bill. we are not going to say anymore to that. will: that is worth highlighting, the level of substance of the rebuttal. it is just wrong. the argument against florida's bill has been to

mischaracterize it and lie about it and suggest you can't mention the word gay or say it is simply wrong. why not mouth the chief incentive tuesday wants to parent that level of shallow rebuttal than disney is going to lose it special privileges under the law. so far disney stock is down 35%. pete: teachers have said what am i supposed to do when one of my children wants to talk about their gender as a 5-year-old, how the lie share my non-binary relationship with my kids. when you see that video all you say is tell the young child talk to your parents. talk with them. rachel: i have 9 kids, have not had 16-year-old ask me to talk to them about their gender. they are who they are and these are not conversations that organically come up out of a

child's mouth or mind, it's very rare, we shouldn't have these conversations with everybody because there might be one kid in 10,000 that might have these questions. send a note to mom saying that johnny asked about this, you might take that up with him. it it is so commonsense. lot of people wonder why did disney get involved in this, also asking good why are the democrats who tend to not like corporations in bed with these corporations, what are they doing for each other, governor desantis was on tucker carlson, give a good explanation about what is going on, take a listen. >> this company had a deal unlike any company or any individual in all of the state of florida, probably anywhere in the united states, they were

self-governing, had extraordinary powers, they could build nuclear power plants, couldn't go through permitting promises, a lot of tax benefits so that is inappropriate, certainly inappropriate when you look as you pointed out, they pledged themselves to mobilize their considerable corporate resources, out of the coppers of this burbank california based corporation to overturn the rights of parents in the state of florida, effectively commandeer our democratic process so that is something we very much objected to. will: once the corporations come big or small go woke than they are a tool of the left and to be protected and happy to allow any mischaracterization of the bill, what does the bill actual you say, the parental rights in education law? here's what the bill says. it says classroom instruction by school personnel or third

parties which is an important part to add to that, sexual orientation and gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age appropriate. >> that phrase is launched this entire propaganda campaign which has resulted in the state of florida, senate and house and governor signing into law revoking disney's special privileges in orlando, outside orlando where they are essentially self-governing, that has changed and we will have more conversation with them introduce me a local residents. >> disney thought they could throw their weight around because they are important to the economy and that part of the state and thought they could throw their weight around and get governor desantis to back down and do the opposite of what the people of florida want them to do and he said you don't want this state, the people do and i think he won a

lot of love across the country for standing up and setting an example of what governors should do and how to respond to the use the press corporate woke notes that he said is going to destroy this country. pete: you want to debate what is age appropriate? i have a 5-year-old who thinks he has a chance of being batman. i don't know that he's prepared to discuss his gender identity. where does this all come from? all of these ideas, critical gender theory, critical race theory? later in the program i will do a book cover reveal of a new book i have coming out in. and which talks about the origins of all these philosophies of that made their way into the classroom and what the agenda was behind it, that cities were to use coming up. rachel: so important to understand why, everyone needs -- to already be thinking about buying it.

one of the guys supporting border patrol in texas dps on a mission supplementing what border patrol is supposed to be doing and in this case this texas national guardsmen jumped io grande to try to save a migrant who was presumably drowning, they've got divers attempting to find him, how utterly dangerous. >> representative tony gonzalez tweeted a picture of the guardsmen, a farmer, he threw his body armor off to rescue people. this happens all the time. not only do people die a lot but border patrol is constantly saving people, women who are pregnant, children, the waters can look calm but there is a

very dangerous current underneath and people don't realize it. you had me on your show on prime time, filling in for jesse waters and we did a segment talking about how mexico is offering free sitting weapons to help people who don't know how to swim. it is very dangerous, are put oprah -- border patrol in texas national guard consulate putting lives at risk. pete: texas national card, it is standard protocol you have swim training, presumably he knew how to swim himself which is a reminder how perilous it is. here's a statement from the texas military department, we will continue to search for a soldier until we've exhausted all possible resources, we will notify the next of kin regarding the missing soldier.

will: 19 drownings and that one area, eagle pass in one month, stunning figure but most importantly, the loss of a life, potential loss of a life of a texas national guardsmen attempting to control the chaos created by the policies that start right there in washington dc. this is simply unforgivable. rachel: this lies at the feet of president biden enters policies, this is why this happened and it will continue to happen because democrat who lives on the border versus this border is open, no matter what they tell you the border is open and people are encouraged to do this, risk their lives and put our own men and women -- will: you've got migrant on the other side of the border saying on may 23rd i am crossing the border. all right, let's go to carly who has additional news force

best, >> will: florida governor ron desantis assigning the stop woke act into law, all the disney, florida state representative randy find file the bill and joins me now. thank you for being with us this morning. let's walk through this together. let's start with politics and tactics. what is florida saying to a corporation that engages in political activism? >> we don't want to tell companies they can't give their opinion but disney has special privileges. they are a guest in our state and attempted to bring their california values to florida. after this duly elected

legislature and duly elected governor signed a bill overwhelmingly supported by floridians disney said they would make it a priority to overturned that. you don't go to a guest in somebody else's house and rain on their parade. we said that is out of line and here we go. pete: a strong message you have sent. i speak for myself and others, disney has adopted a very radical political position, turned into an activist in the state of florida but i want to ask what your critics might argue in response, this is the state of florida, shouldn't punish political speech but disney's point of view might be it is their politically protected point of view. are you worried about its ability to survive a constitutional challenge should disney sue? >> i'm not because we didn't target disney in this. .

when disney kicked the hornets nest and we looked at special districts we realized there were six, not just disney, that were created before the florida constitution was put in place with all sorts of wacky powers. one special district that is not disney until property owners outside the government how to use her property and disney did all kinds of other things like allowing them to build a nuclear power plant or ignore our zoning rules so we didn't target disney with this bill, they just elevated the issue allowing us to realize there was a problem. many people have wanted to solve this issue for decades, disney had too much political power to fix it. what happened is they alienated florida voters, the political power went away and we were able to do something that was long overdue. pete: you are talking disney at special privileges under this law, their taxing power, their ability to build roads and

bridges and theoretically a nuclear power plants but the governor has been clear this is because they stepped in and adopted this position and turned it to political activism. with your critics have some standing if they said you are targeting disney because of the speech, you could have taken away this special privilege at any point, you could have taken away years ago because this theoretically wrong but you chose to do it after they should their political speech. >> we didn't have the political power to do it. that the difference. disney has the largest team of lobbyists in tallahassee so it was impossible to do this was only when they alienated floridians did this happen. they made this issue come up. we weren't looking at special district until they kicked the hornets nest and we realize there was a problem with disney and 5 other special districts. when you kick the hornet's nest

-- pete: going after the special districts? >> the bill dealt with 100% of those special interests, not just disney. pete: i see. that an important clarification and appreciate you sharing it. what are the effects on residents in that area in those counties? disney is maintaining that infrastructure in those areas, if they lose those special privileges some said taxes will go up astronomically for residents living in those counties. >> disney doesn't maintain that infrastructure. the greeley creek -- the reedy creek improvement district does. they will get paid to orange county and osceola, no effect on taxpayers except taxpayers will be able to see what is going on in these -- in this governmental area that they previously had no control over. this is a big win. pete: no effect on taxpayers? you could see property taxes go up by 25%.

your estimation that's not going to happen? >> this is argued by the same people who said we passed the don't k - don't say gay bill in florida. you see that. no sono. pete: appreciate you taking time to address some of those issues and what your critics might say, a strong message to any corporation that adopt radical points of view. thank you for your time. let's turn to our chief meteorologist rick reichmuth. >> nascar is all about the cars so we brought the fox weather beast. you can get live "america's weather,

super speedway. banging into each other everywhere from big bill's garage. talladega for the geico 500. fox with you at every big race. good morning, will cain, pete hegseth and rach chem campos-duffy. rachel: big show. paula deen, brad keselowski. pete: you got that right. rachel: going to have a great time here. pete: 6:00 hour was great and as the sun comes up and see the entirety of the grandstand at this super speedway we also have kilmeade and robbie green as well. i thought you did a great job with that interview with the police chief. i was listening but i wasn't watching because i tried to get out on the track. very good security here at talladega. none of the fences were open. i was trying to walk to get into the pits and onto the track i was not able. to say i did spot the fox nation 77 car landing castle will be

driving that again on talladega. will: i know the answer is yes to this question when i say have you walked on the track because you have driven on these tracks. at the daytona 500 i went to the race after the show on sunday they allow you onto the track. can you hang out on the green and of course on the track as well. it is really shocking how steep that embankment is. how steep that track is. on television you may come away thinking it's a flat track. you are walking up hill like that should you get out there on that pavement. rachel: nothing like actually being here to really appreciate what happens here. i mean, i have seen nascar stuff on tv it's not the same as being here it's really great being here with you two. pete: great being here with you as well. maybe we can do one of our acceptingments standing on the embankment of that track. everyone brings a sharpy out there. over under 60% let's go brandon. [laughter] pretty much that was the overwhelming consensus written on the track in daytona. no surprise.

rachel: that tells you a lot about nascar actually. everything you need to know about nascar. pete: great to be here with fox sports as well broadcasting here also. but we have got other news this morning as well. including this. officials fear a texas national guard soldier may have drowned in the rio grande river. trying to save a migrant woman. rachel: oh my goodness. it's so sad. officials say strong river current have forced search efforts to be temporarily paused but they hope to resume today. will: bill melugin is in eagle pass, texas with the details. bill? >> bill: the latest update we have on this tragic incident from the local sheriff is this texas national guard soldier jumped into the water around 8: 30 a.m. in an effort to save a female migrant who was struggling in the river with another group of migrants. what we're told is that female did survive and is now in border patrol custody; however, that male soldier never resurfaced. the texas military department putting out a statement saying they cannot confirm that he died because they haven't found his body, only saying he is missing

in a, quote, mission-related incident. multiple sources tell fox news this is now being treated as a presumed drowning of that soldier. they did find his body armor. his radio, and his cell phone but he is still missing. if, in fact, they do find his body and confirm he died, it would make the very first texas national guard soldier to die on duty in the river since operation lone star was first launched last year. we'll send it back to you. pete: wow. thank you so much. rachel: that's new information. i didn't realize that the migrant he tried to save actually survived. pete: saved her life. rachel: we should be able to gather information hopefully from her about what happened to him and hopefully they will be able -- i'm still praying we will find him alive. pete: tragic. what these men and women do in uniform to supplement the fact that the federal government is choosing to not do its job, you know, they deserve a commander-in-chief that has their back, instead they have a

commander-in-chief that's abandoned the border completely yet they are putting their lives on the line. we covered last hour 19 people alone have drowned in eagle pass, texas. that means guardsmen knew how dangerous that river was. he was willing to jump in and risk his life to save another. rachel: was that in the last month? will: st 19 in the last month. they not only have a commander-in-chief who has created this chaos. let us not forget while this is a texas national guardsmen this is supplementing border patrol efforts and these are the men who were slandered by the president of the united states as whipping migrants and that news story from a year ago has completely and utterly disappeared. pete: by the way they were cleared of the whipping. got almost no coverage whatsoever. will: a week ago peter doocy a was pressing jen psaki on where the coverage was and it is not forthcoming. these are the type of men that they chose to slander as whipping migrants. rachel: reason why they are supplementing because our border

patrol is changing diapers and processing people instead of patrolling our border. this is what is happening. by the way, representative gonzalez, he has been -- tony gonzales has been an absolute champion on their trying to bring attention along with, by the way. a democrat henry cuellar who has also been remarkable on this. he tweeted representative gonzalez pink right there is the body armor that that national guardsman took off so he could go in and save that illegal migrant woman. and the border patrol, the national guardsmen are constantly having to go into these rivers which look calm on the surface but has this very dangerous current underneath. and they are constantly having to save people, children, pregnant women, and oftentimes as you guys know you go in to save somebody. they can pull you down and as you mentioned earlier, pete, there is no doubt that this guardsman has training on swimming and knows how to do this. it must have been a terrible

situation. pete: we're going to have tom homan, fox news contributor, retired acting ice director on the program later here live from taggle. i know he is going to be here because i saw him last night in the restaurant. pete: we were both having a drink before going to bed. can i confirm that he is fired up about this topic and we'll l. have a lot to say. he will join us in a moment. rachel: it's an important topic. pete: for sure. rachel: russia commander outlining objective. full control of the country's southern front as intense fighting continues throughout the country. pete: matt finn live from lviv with updates from the battlefield. matt? >> good morning, a russian commander is now admitting that moscow does want to take full control of ukraine from the east all across the southern coast into moldova, essentially land locking ukraine and redrawing russia's border from the donbas in the east all the way to the

country of moldova. stripping ukraine of its critical industrial region and creating a land bridge to crimea. also sparking fear that moldova could be the next to be invaded by russia. in the southern port city of mariupol, some of our first glimpses into the dire standoff between ukrainians and russians. new video released by the ukrainian military appears to show women and children hiding in tunnels underneath the massive steel plant. estimated 2,000 ukrainian marines along with women and children have been hold up there for weeks. one mother says her family has been hiding out since february. and they are running out of food. vladimir putin now saying he will stop bombing that plant but now ukrainian president zelenskyy says the bombing has resumed. >> this seemed to be the safest place when we came here. our house has come under fire and was inhabitable. we have been here since februar.

i hope we are leave here and see the sun. in here dim not like outside. when our houses are rebuilt, we can live in peace. >> new video from kharkiv bombing northwestern city. airstrikes hitting more residential towers and regions. people dropping for cover. and then emergency crews rushing in to help injured civilians. now britain has become the latest country saying it will reopen its embassy in the capital city of kyiv. ukraine says it's confident that the united states will soon follow. back to you guys. will: thank you for that report. matt. pete: we will follow as we often do these days. rachel: that was really sad hearing that young boy not having seen the sun in two months. pete: can you imagine? rachel: ia, horrible. pete: bombardment continues. will: speaking of bombardment. you know, i think it's hard for us to fully appreciate the

unique position of the united states of america when it comes to foundational value of free speech. very few even western sizzles value the concept of free speech as does the united states of america. not in the u.k., not in canada. but the american left, and that is no overstatement. the american left has been on a long march to reduce the principle of free speech. they have attacked every single political source of political disagreement over decades. it is reaching a crescendo now where you are hearing an open call for censorship from leaders of the democratic party. rachel: that is what is most shocking is how out in the open the mask solve. they are just out and out saying here is a tweet from hillary clinton for too long tech platforms have amplified disinformation and extremism with no accountability. the eu is poised to do something about it. i urge our trans-atlantic allies to push the digital services act across the finish line and bolster global democracy before it's too late.

pete, how insanely hypocritical is this coming from someone who has so openly spread disinformation and to the point of actually attempting to overturn an election? pete: that's a great point. the federalist co-founder sean davis in fact tweeted along those lines saying your former campaign lawyer, this is to hillary clinton. your former campaign lawyer is under federal indictment for lying to the fbi about the russia gate hoax that your campaign funded sit down. they never see the irony of it. will: michael sussmann currently under investigation and indicted by the durham report investigation which was disinformation. the idea of a connection between donald trump and russia. and here she is asking for censorship of, quote: disinformation. pete: how can they understand we live in a world political opponents don't like what they say. they like that they have a monopoly what is accepted ideas or what is not.

that is like king george back in the day you know thomas payne that pamphlet-eer he has new ways of communicating we need to shut that down. they loved twitter in 2008 and 2012. now that it would be more open with elon musk it's something that they feel they have to squash. at any turn if they lose their monopoly on that conversation, then they deem it disinformation. thank goodness the debate over the bill of rights was won by those who believed we had to enumerate them. the assumption of our founders is we don't need to write down the bill of rights those are all protected by the constitution. someone said, i can't remember which founding father it was, we need to write them down, otherwise people will take them away. will: i want you to try to find a source of disagreement that has not fallen under the crosshairs of potential censorship. look, the fox news channel itself has been targeted for decades. substack, a new one independent voices has been called in for criticism. joe rogan, an independent podcast you must censor.

find one. pete: rush limbaugh before all of its own beat outside the acceptable lane of group think comes in for censorship. and i'm telling you from the highest levels of the democratic party now, you are hearing to your point, openness in the embrace of censorship. i just want to share with you a bit of a speech by former president barack obama this week at stanford where we talked about disinformation and democracy. >> reporters start worrying about i got to tweet something because if i don't i may be out of a job. that's the information environment we now live in. it's not just that these platforms have, with narrow exceptions have been largely agnostic regarding the kind of information available and connections made on their sites. it's that in the competition between truth and falsehood, cooperation and conflict, the very design of these platforms seems to be tilting us in the

wrong direction. people are dying because of misinformation. rachel: it's so fascinating because if you look at the stuff that they actually deemed disinformation, much of it has been proven to be not disinformation. number two, they are worried somebody might post something about a vaccine injury. or somebody might post something about how masks don't work. this is what they are worried about. do you know what i worry about with the internet? i worry about the fact that 11-year-olds are accessing pornography, very dangerous, violent pornography. i wish that barack obama would care about what real parents care about with the internet. i don't care about if somebody has a different opinion about me on vaccines or covid or, you know, russia -- you know, russia hoax or whatever. we ought to have all those ideas out there. those are not dangerous ideas. but the dangerous stuff people really care about. they don't care about. i bet you 10 bucks barack obama would say it's fine to have.

will: a whole 10 bucks? you want to invest 10 bucks? rachel: i will bet 100. they don't care about what real people care about in terms of the dangers. pete: no they care about their political power. they care about their narrative and squashing something until it's not useful for them anymore. now that we know about hunter biden. now that we know about the origins of covid. then it can all seep its way into the bloodstream it worked when they needed it. will: interesting, we both want the same thing. left and right eggs regulation of big tech. they at this point in time so they can have more censorship and left wants it so they can have less censorship. rachel: true. will: carley shimkus has additional headlines for us this morning. carley: good morning. terrifying story here. four people including a young girl are shot walking down the street in washington, d.c. police say the suspect fired indiscriminately at people from inside his fifth floor apartment. authorities say a person of interest was found dead in that apartment. police believe he died by suicide. he had six firearms and multiple

indoctrinated. peyton, i will start with you, is that your experience? who is driving this woke agenda? is it administrators at your university or is it student? >> you know, i would say primarily just students. the administration on ua is absolutely fabulous. with having -- allowing students to have their own platform and having their own freedom of speech, the university does not get in the way with that in any way. it's the students you have to worry about. it's kind of flight flopped these days. pete: the students are the enforcer of the acceptable ideology. >> yes. pete: katie, you run a big conservative tiktok account. >> yes, i do. pete: you have seen some blow back from fellow students. >> absolutely. social media is the number one driving force for students. i think that's why they show up to these universities woke. i honestly do. pete: you have had fellow students try totality on you for your conservative views. >> i have had people from my hometown. i have had people from fellow

numbers we have never seen representative says this president from florida she says this president is the human trafficker in chief. that he is absolutely complicit in the sex trade. >> absolutely. this is the first administration that i have seen in my lifetime that's actively facilitating cross border crime. look, people attack me all the time, the administration how inhumane are you guys? let me tell you something when president trump got illegal immigration at a 40 year low and the border was secure, how many women weren't sexually assaulted? rachel: that's right. >> how many children didn't die. how many migrants didn't drown in the river? how many pounds of fentanyl didn't get in the country that caused death from u.s. citizen overdoses? president trump's policy not only secured the border, it saved lives. a secure border saves lives. will: makes you really reflect on what type of policies actually reflect compassion. tom, you and i were talking --

pleased to meet you for the first time in person today even though we have spoken 100 times. we were talking off set and you said there was so many numbers involved in the border. i can't get over the image of this texas national guardsman drowning in that river. what is the risk to law enforcement on the border? border patrol? texas national guardsman, how many die in service trying to protect our border? >> look, you know, over 140. died in the line of duty. but, this border right now is very violent because the cartels are making so much money. not only on smuggling aliens but trafficking fentanyl and women for sex trade. making more money they have ever made. that's why you see the violence upticking. cartels are fighting each other. that's why you see guardsmen and border patrol agents being shot at from the mexican side of the border. so, look, but it's important the national guard are there. it's important that texas governor who has done more to secure the border than anybody in this administration, you would think what the national

guard and dps has done they have arrested almost a quarter million illegal aliens. a quarter million. that's 250 less got-aways. they have seized 300 million lethal doses of fentanyl that could have came to this country. so it's important that they be there because this administration has failed to secure the border. so the texas government, governor abbott, god bless him. not only is he protecting texas. is he protecting the rest of the country because most of this fentanyl goes all over the nation. rachel: mexico is also getting destroyed. i was just down there. i can't believe how much the country has changed because these cartels, as you said are more powerful than ever. we are literally destabilizing our southern neighbor which is only going to bring more problems to them and to us. >> most shocking thing over this administration is that we have lost operational control of the border. rachel: that's right. >> chief patrol agents, several of them told me we have lost operational control of our southern border. our southern border is controlled by the cartels. rachel: charter. >> the border patrol can't contain what's coming across.

just last month a record number of crossings 221,000 with 67 got away, 67,000 people enter the country and we don't know who they are. considering they arrested 32 on the terrorist watch list. how many of that 67,000. terrorists try to escape apprehension. that's scary. 700,000 got-aways since he has been president. how many of them are criminals? how many of those are on data base. >> that and title 42 goes away in a month which means the flood is only still coming. great to see you here in talladega, tom. >> great to be here. will: great to have you in person. >> great to be here and on set again. will: stick around and watch a car race. pete: i think he has bigger things to do. will: we will see you later, tom. thank you. elon musk is not backing down. the billionaire is making his new moves in his bid to take over twitter. cheryl casone has all the details and she is next.

will: elon musk zeroing in on a possible path to take over twitter. the latest move includes

registering three x holding companies in delaware that would help secure his $46.5 billion bid. here to break it down host of the american dream home on fox business cheryl casone. cheryl, good morning. >> good morning. will: help us make sense of this. registering these holdings in delaware. what does that tell us about his potential bid for twitter? >> well, he has got almost every blue chip bank in new york behind him. this is basically a business and a legal maneuver as a way to take over twitter. he would take the company over, merge it with these x companies out of delaware and then he would take that company private. that's what he wants to do. and i would never bet against elon musk. i mean a $43 billion deal. its debt, it's cash. it's equity financing and is he moving forward. twitter, of course, has not responded to his proposal. they have no interested in elon musk taking over the company. i would argue though that is in the best interest of twitter's shareholders. this company is in trouble.

they have stamped out free speech. they have -- you are taking the former president off the platform but you are leaving vladimir putin on the platform. not good business sense. not good for shareholders. and frankly, again, i would never bet against elon musk. i think he is going to make it hand. will: yeah. interesting that you say every investment bank on wall street is behind his bid. let's talk about wall street for just a moment. the dow down 1,000 points. yesterday the biggest loss since 2020. what does that tell you about the future of our economy? where are we headed, cheryl? >> well, even the president. president biden is one of his favorite economists, mark zandy is talking about a recession. goldman sachs is talking about a possible recession. and history tells us when the fed raises rates, and they are going to be doing it fairly aggressively and that's why the market reacted like it did yesterday, is because that's going to make it more expensive for americans. make your car loan more expensive. mortgage, credit card, interest rate that you are paying. all of that hurts the economy. it hurts the consumer and hurts

spending and really hurts small business. the fed has to do this. they have been late to the party. there is a lot of criticism right now on fed chairman jerome powell that he should have acted sooner. we have inflation at 40 year high. and the country, the economy can't operate like this right now. will: raising rates, leading us into a potential recession. not a good sign, cheryl. thank you for enlightening us this morning. good to see you. >> you too. have fun. will: i will. i promise. we have a big show still ahead. my good friend paula deen is going to join us live. you don't want to miss her go-to tailgate snacks. first, here is the talladega college marching band performing shivers. ♪ ♪

"fox & friends" welcoming you in to this celebratory weekend. we have a big show ahead.

paula deen, ricky. brian kilmeade. reilly green, david star and more joining us right here on "fox & friends." pete: on the super speedway which means they go super, super fast. and in my ongoing attempt to just do a reconnaissance around big bill's garage the beer freezer unattended, open. bud light as far as the eye can see. but that will wait for two hours. rachel: this is what i love. a lot of people ask me what do you guys talk about in commercial break? i want you to know in commercial break these guys are already talked about what beer they are going to drink. where it's at. the cooler's unlock. will: we have planned out our day. >> totally planned outer our day. pete: usfl game. after. will: after the show is over we decided we are going to have a team meeting and go to the infield. take a lap around with the folks here inside talladega super speedway you and i think we are

headed off to a usfl game. pete: darryl johnson is going to be a guest n a moment. he runs the usfl. we are going to hit him up for tickets. he doesn't know it yet. see usfl game qualifying race here at 10:00. catch a couple of those to set the pole positions then you will watch the mavericks game at 2:30. will: 3:30. pete: and then go to bed. rachel: around 6:00. sean duffy is flying in right now because is he going to be on the show tomorrow. we are actually going to have a date night while you guys go and drink. pete: he can join us. rachel: don't invite him he might take you up on that because that does feel like fun. pete: feels like "fox & friends" with the band playing. they can play any time they want and i hope they play while we are talking they got the cue. will: we move on serious news this morning. while americans grapple with the supply chain crisis things got

worse thanks to china. fallout from the country's covid-19 lockdowns are poised to trigger a new round of surging costs and delayed shipping as factories in shanghai race to reopen. rachel: that's right. and our own bret baier got an upclose look at the crisis. los angeles supplied by backlogs. pete: bret, thanks for being here. in a moment we will get to the car you got racing today. we will get to that in a moment. first, when you look at what is happening in china and then what you saw firsthand and what are we looking at as consumers here in america and the year to come? >> yeah, good morning, guys. listen, first of all i want to say. pete: good morning. bret: i wish "special report" started with a band every day. that. [laughter] bret: the china situation is real. i was talking to those guys that deal at the port every day. they say they expect a lot more

supply chain problems even though they have seen some release of what we were dealing with a few months ago. they believe the situation in china is going to exponentially going to make it worse. that same show i had fred smith with fedex on talking about the challenges for the u.s. economy. and one of the interesting things he said aside from china, which does drive a lot, is he said that we dodged a bullet because, in his words, if the government had passed build back better, that the inflation that we're looking at now would be exponentially higher. and he has raised a red flag and pointed to what larry summers and others have said. buff the situation in china is a big deal. will: hey, bret, it's hard to get into the mind of xi jinping or the chinese communist party. what as you have looked into this issue do you think is motivating this really, really

strong crackdown in china. they have adopted this covid zero policy. you know, people are wondering do they know something about this next wave of code the rest of the world does not? is this economic warfare essentially hurting trade as you just point out washes back on to american shores? it's hard to understand why china is taking such a hard stance internally right now when it comes to covid. bret: i think that's a great question and one in which the epidemiologists and others don't have an answer to. that's the place it starts. they know that. and how much china knows about the next iteration that's all up in the air. they don't know that they do know that what china does affects the rest of the world exponentially when it documents supply chain and what they are doing now is going to hurt eventually. rachel: bret, let's talk a little bit about what is happening in florida with ron

desantis' message to disney regarding their policies and how they are trying to influence the state of florida with their -- regarding the woke policies. bret: yeah. i think that that's -- listen, that back and forth has been interesting to watch, right? and i think that this law that's now signed, there are some republicans who have concerns about punishing a company. now, you can take it and look at it that way or you could say maybe this is the way to say to some company that, like disney, that you can't be the political woke company that you wanted to be. there are red flags though. and, you know, you are going to hurt some taxpayers down there and that may have an impact, and i think the political fallout from it we just haven't fully assessed yet. pete: bret, will had a great interview with a state

legislator down in florida where he kind of pressed him on that question a will there be a tax impact on taxpayers in that county and then, b, is this targeted at disney or is this something that is at all conditions that have special exemptions? they claim it's not just diz anything, although now is a special time because the political power is there to overcome the lobbyists that disney usually has at tallahassee. do you think they can thread that constitutional needle to say hey, yeah, speech is part of a corporations have but ultimately this is not just disney, it's all companies with special carveouts? bret: i think that he that's legalese. if that fits on a bumper sticker that republicans are going after disney and it's easy for democrats, including president biden, to mention it that republicans are going after mickey mouse, you know, it's just an easy political thing to turn around. the law itself, i mean, if you get to the heart of the law, of the original law that they

passed, about not, you know, dealing with transgender or sexual identity issues in class from k through 3rd grade, is very popular if you ask people. that win was clear. this one is less clear. will: yeah, and to be clear, when i pressed that state representative earlier, it's on the question of the legality of the new florida law. meaning will it survive a constitutional challenge as you point out, bret, over first amendment issues? i will say if you even go back further and i believe i'm right on this, but the ready creek development special privilege which has been revoked didn't require disney to do it for the general well-being of florida. if you are actively going against the wishes of floridians and advocating for radical political positions maybe you aren't there for the well-being of florida anymore. and, therefore, lose your special privilege. bret: definitely legal for sure.

pete: bret, we are here. we got you on for not just your insight but love of nascar and your sporp of sponsorship of a car. "special report" car david starr. thank you for being here. great to see you. >> great to see y'all. pete: what is it like to wear the "special report" with bret baier logo on your chest? >> what an honor to have bret baier have beginner with him watch him play golf. ticket smarter. i still pinch myself, you know. bret baier is with us at the face track. the fans love him. every week people hey, where is bret baier? i'm mowing my grass at home my neighbor stopped by hey are you going to see bret baier next week? everyone loves bret baier. what an honor. i'm honored and humbled. bret, thank you. rachel: t-shirt next week.

[laughter] bret: but he is the best and such a great ambassador for "special report." it's awesome to see you, david, you ready to win out there? >> man, i'm ready, bret i'm looking to the race. looking forward to children's hospital next week. what bret does for the hospital with his family and you know, ticket smarter everybody that buys a ticket, ticket smarter stan's company they donate a dollar to saint jude's children's hospital. being involved with bret baier and stan ross and ticket smarter and what they do for the children's charities out there is just amazing. a lot of the meaning to it i mean, i love nascar, love being here in talladega. we want to be the race. these guys go above and beyond. thank you for being involved in nascar. bret is as passionate about if

to themselves we are not really focused right now on earth day on greening the economy. and can i justed a this? we are like the most energy efficient, the least carbon emitting country on the planet, so this is just not the problem. it's not the top 10 issue. so, you know, and, again, him coming out and saying i like hot rod cars but i don't really drive much is comically idiotic. but the other thing that i have a little bit of a problem with if you don't mind noticing you in alabama. i'm hearing that pete and will, you guys might go to the usfl game in birmingham i'm noticing i have the "fox & friends" checkbook here and, you know, i have to keep it, it's my rotation. you guys are been to cpac. i see huge drawls. fort benning, daytona. will's trip to oil rig not chief. folds of honor just a turning point. you are doing the ranger thing. we don't have that type of money in the budget. we have two conventions to cover

next year. we have places. there is places i wanted to go to, you know. but we got to cover two super bowls over the next three years. and, pete, road jail $2,000. will, you have to travel with your masseuse. have you heard of massage envy? it's a chain, effective. and why do you have to do your nails every three hours, rachel? i don't think this is something we can afford. [laughter] brian: i really think you are blowing our budget on the weekends. this has got to stop. all right? and these 2:00 withdrawals, pete, that just say gym are not going to work out and are certainly not going to get satisfied when you go to human resources and they ask why are you spending all this money. pete: bravo. rachel: well done. will: i was going to make a line about balanced budget and taking it out of your support staff you inoculated yourself going after us one at a time. just bravo.

rachel: you know, brian, the "fox & friends" franchise is number one. we are number one cable morning show on weekdays. number one cable show on the weekends. and i think maybe what you ought to do is up the budget to accommodate some of these expenses. will: coffee maybe. brian: rachel, to identify make one thing clear. we spend the money but we don't put the deposits in. we pride ourself on austerity evidently that might be our subtitle on the book when they write the unauthorize biography at "fox & friends." austerity is our buzz word. we don't have excess. we have two or three jobs. that's the key. rachel: an example to the federal government. pete: who writes that unauthorized version of history of "fox & friends." man, that will be something. make sure you get kilmeade on and off the record for that one. brian, we have got your show coming up tonight though.

give us a preview on one nation 8:00 tonight. brian: 8:00 tonight. the u.s. -- the fin ambassador to the united states, tells me what is going -- what his decision is going to be and what he thinks the country want to do in terms of nato. fascinating interview. arthur brooks on what is happiness. big time conservative thought leader. is he at harvard teaching a happiness course and he teaches us how to have happiness in our second careers and rachel, i know you helped out on. that was and there is another story, of course, that i think you all should see. and that is sean duffy and rachel, when they first met, as they talk about in the news things you have not seen you know about this relationship and the nine children and how great they were but do you remember how their relationship took root at sneak preview tonight that's coming your way. dave ramsey, i'm beating inflation and getting a house.

so we have a huge show and a sneak preview of how rachel and sean's relationship took root. we know how it is. but we don't know how it started. will: you can't miss that. rachel: who knew this would be a big topic in the news. i love it. brian, you are the best. pete: brian, we love having you. and weekends are when you are supposed to spend all your money. weekdays is when you earn it, week ends is when you spend it. will: that's what i'm going with. brian: i will tell ainsley. go to birmingham and watch the usfl. will: stay within yourself. more to come. a behind the scenes look at talladega speedway. we will take you inside the pit, the stands and the broadcast booth. pete: nascar star is here with us. he talks race day prep. we are in the garage here at talladega. stay with us. ♪ ♪ you're going my way

brought us donuts to go with our car right here. it's early for me. i was over at the dirt track last night racing. i got up this morning to come join y'all. pete: appreciate it. you do multiple races over the course of a weekend? >> not every weekend but some weekends when there is dirt track racing close to us, and i can talk my dad into bringing our dirt car down we get to go racing together. it's something i did growing up which is a lot of fun. will: big fun for members of the race go to the talladega dirt track. whenever you are there make sure on friday night. why is that such a special event? i guess the take away from me is you must love racing, ricky. >> we do love racing. we love to race any time we can. and it's something i did i growing up. something i enjoy doing it i spend time with dad and family and friends that come out. you get to see a lot of the fans that are going to be here sunday. you know, they are die hard just racers and they want to come watch any racing that they can

and there is all sorts of classes over there racing. and everybody has fun. rachel: that's one of the things i love about coming here. there is a real culture about it that is family friendly and there is a culture around nascar that you really can't get when you are just watching it. you almost have to be here. >> you definitely need to come here to experience and talladega is one of the best to experience that. i mean, there is fun, family, friendly activities all throughout the place. then there is some areas that you probably don't want to take your kid. rachel: we have been there. >> talladega is -- you got to go there at night. talladega is a lot of fun and, man, it creates great racing, too. so, like you said, we are looking for our second taggle win. i feel really good about it. pete: talk to me about that approach. we are in front of your car right now, the 47 car. as you look at the race tomorrow, what's your mentality going into it? super speedway, how do you approach it. >> our approach is, you know, i know my guys are building me a

really, really fast car. we have been. we were leading five laps to go toe daytona 500 and got crashed. we were leading at our other super speedway now atlanta and we blew a tire. i know our car is going to be where it needs to be. our strategy is to stay up front. you know, it's hard to pass and hard to get that track position. so once we get it we try and stay up front and block everybody and see if we can't finish first. but, everything has to play out right. you know, these races are so tough to win. and you got to do everything perfect. so we will see. but, i know our guys got a really fast 47 and ready to go. >> do you ever get scared? >> never, never. rachel: really? >> no. i get -- pete: three wide on embankment late race. >> i got a really good spotter boy. he has won plenty of super speedway races. i feel like i could close my

eyes and he could tell me. i know everything that's going on. that's how much information we are getting from our spotters and, you know, for me, i have been racing since i was about 5 years old. so i don't really get scared much. will: five laps to go at tooth. >> that was a bummer that was after being on y'all's show. will: don't put that on us. >> we were leading up front and fast. that's the important part. is giving yourself a shot to win. will: we put you up to the front again here at talladega. pete: beauty car sunny d, i love that. >> ricky stenhouse, appreciate it. pete: let's turn now to chief meteorologist rick reichmuth for our fox weather forecast. don't know where he is. he has got to be somewhere around here. rick: i am. i'm somewhere right here. i have a great view. guys, about three years ago i went and drove with ricky around the charlotte speedway for about 30 minutes doing an interview with him in the car. he wasn't scared just talking. but i was ready to puke by the

[laughter] pete: by the way, in a few moments i'm going to reveal the book cover of my new book, some of the topics we're talking about right now. but first, officials fear a texas national guard soldier may have drowned in the rio grande river in a tragic -- attempting to save and did save a migrant woman. rachel: strong river currents have caused the search efforts to be temporarily pause pad, but

they hope they can resume today to find his body. will: bill melugin has the latest details. >> reporter: the latest we have, a local sheriff says this texas national guard soldier jumped into the water around 8:30 a.m. in an effort to save a female migrant who was struggling in the river with another group of migrants. that female did survive and is now in border patrol custody. however, that male soldier never resurfaced. the texas military department putting out a statement saying they cannot confirm that he died, only saying he is missing in a, quote, mission-related incident. however, multiple sources tell fox news this is now being treated as a presumed drowning. he is still missing. if, in fact, they do find his body, it would make the very first texas national guard soldier to die on duty in the river since operation lone star was first launched last year. back to you.

pete: bill melugin, thank you very much for that update. let's bring back in tom homan, retired acting i.c.e. director. tom, you heard the report. tragic. texas national guard soldier doing his job, going above and beyond, trying to save someone who's coming into our country. your reaction to the whole thing. >> look, first of all, it's preventable, right? if we had a secure border like we had with president trump, we had a a lot less, again, record number of migrant deaths, and border patrol's putting up with so many bad things every day. do you know border patrol has 30% higher suicide rate than any if other law enforcement agency? pete: i did not. >> the terrible things they see, children abandoned, dead children. the rollovers, the deaths from the rollovers that texas dps has found, what's going on on the border is tragic. there's a lot of death. a secure border saves lives. it saves lives.

so put your ideology aside for a minute and secure the border. save lives. will: you know, tom, i can't help it, this tragic -- not shameful for a texas guard member to put his life on the line, but the chaos that leads to this moment, i can't help but put it aside the moment a year ago when president joe biden looked at border patrol and said they were whipping migrants trying to come across the border. >> i was in san antonio a couple weeks ago, and i talked about it. the men and women on border patrol, first of all, they're american heroes, right? for the president to attack the those men for doing their job, i watched that video. i was in the border patrol. that's how i started. i know the rules of engagement. they did their job. the only thing that did anything

wrong was the haitians. they entered the country, which is a crime, they ignored orders from a federal officer which is a felony. and the horses trained exactly how they're supposed to do, and the agents did a great job. and they were slanderedded by the president of the united states. the president of the united states said he did something wrong, he whipped a black man. it was untrue. everybody can see the film. they have yet to release the official results of the investigation. these guys are totally innocent. they needed -- if this administration had any integrity, they need to announce this investigation, clear these agents at the white house podium, they deserve that. the motto for the border patrol is honor first, they stole their honor. rachel: yeah. i don't think they have the integrity to do that, i really don't. and i really think -- i want to go back to what you talked about with the suicide rate.

the border patrol has been vilified. that's part of it. but i think you're absolutely right, they've seen horrific things, especially the things that are happening to children. explain to our viewers how our administration is complicit in the child sex trade because of what they're doing at the border. >> you open the board border, right? we're going to release are people. so when you go back to catch and release, more people come. and right now they're preparing to lift title 42. what are they doing? is they're spending almost a billion dollars to build facilities and release them quicker. meanwhile, there's thousands of -- if there's no consequence, no deterrent, they'll keep coming. so what this administration does is -- [inaudible] criminal organization in this country. smuggle them to the border, and the united states is going to give them a plane ticket, and they're going to deliver that child to the same person, the criminal organization that a smuggled them, which is a felony, a conspiracy. in this administration is

complicit, and they're facilitating cross-border crime. this administration is one of the biggest smuggling organizations i've ever seen -- rachel: they're doing the work for the cartels. i talked to a representative who said she met a child victim, she went back to follow up on this little girl. she at that point had left the facility. she said, where did they go? we don't know. we don't know who and what. this is absolutely irresponsible. >> which is why i get angry and emotional. i've end seen many dying children or dead children. i've stood in the back of a tractor-trailer with 19 dead immigrants including a 5-year-old little boy who suffocated to death. and i had a 5-year-old son at the time. you haven't seen what i've seen. half this country hates me because they think i'm anti-immigrant. i'm anti-illegal immigration because the cartels that rape women and kill people.

they kill the very same people who are protecting the border. i wish these people would wear my shoes for 34 years and see the things i've seen, then they'd understand. pete: if he comes back, i come back, from tom homan. rachel: wow -- pete: that's a big one right there. you herald it. i think a lot of people would like to see that happen someday. thanks for joining us. >> thank you for having me. pete: and to our viewers, i know you can hear the garage becoming a garage right now. all the cars are fired up. we hope you can hear us as well. moving on on to another topic, florida. where as we've seen, governor ron desantis has taken stand after stand, ongoing on critical race theory but also on the idea of what teachers are allowed to say to young kids in the classroom. mischaracterized as the don't say gay bill.

they're going through textbooks in florida to identify where critical race theory is being taught. a lot of states just ignore this, they accept what's coming from publishers and textbooks. here are a couple of examples of books and portions of textbooks that florida department of education is not going to allow. i'll read the first one, and you guys will take the second one. here's the first one. the bar graph shows the difference among groups by age and political identification on the implicit association test which measures levels of racial prejudice. now, the graph suggests conservatives slightly moderately vary and people 65 and more are inclined to be racially biased. if you're a conservative, you're older, your implicit bias is older than others. rachel: and here's where it really gets -- you know this stuff is there when it's in the math, right? here is a section for adding and

subtracting, and it begins with what? me, racist? this is the way they tuck this in. it's all in the textbook. will: this all comes on the heels, of course, of governor ron desantis and the florida legislature revoking disney's special privileges and taking the side of the latest woke ballot which is the ability of strangers, teachers to teach kindergartners and third graders about sexuality and gender. and the response from the biden administration has been very -- saying the bill is simply wrong. none of this is happening anyway. what was laid out is how florida has found it in textbooks, and and this is where it has to go. you respond to the shallow rebuttals that amount to you're racist, you're homophobic, you can't use the word gay with actual evidence of what's taking place and you let parents, floridians, americans decide, is this what i want my children to

be taught. ing. rachel: you know, textbooks have been biased for a long time. we've been talking about this for a long time. this is just next level stuff, and i really hope that in this not only gets the wokeness and the gender ideology and the totally inappropriate racial language out of our textbooks in florida, i'm also hoping this might actually generate a market for textbooks that actually reflects the values of the communities, the values that parents think they're getting when they send their kids to school. pete: rachel, you are exactly right. in fact, there are movements afoot amongst christians and conservatives to create publishing houses and curriculum that's already being created as an alternative to the woke nonsense we see in our classrooms which, guys, is going to give me an opportunity, if i may, to hand out the first couple of copies of my new book. it's called "battle for the american mind."

and the subtitle is "uprooting a century of miseducation." first, a big shout-out to my co-author, david goodwin, who runs the association of classical christian schools, which is a network of schools which has been fighting back for the last 40 years against what we're now seeing front and center in the textbook and the classroom. we see gender ideology, we see racism in math problems, and parents go how in the world did we get here? rachel: that's right. pete: and the only way to understand the tip of the iceberg we're seeing now is to understand the depths of a 100-year takeover of the classroom x. by going through this writing project with david goodwin, it's mortifying and shocking when you understand the intentionality with which early progressives stripped god out of the classroom first, then worked with marxists who came across from germany, landed at columbia teachers' college and push something called critical theory

which no one had heard of three years ago, had been a philosophy in higher education which moved its way into the unions and the teachers' colleges. christianity split, went into social justice or stopped doing education. the court stripped god out. this is not a '60s phenomenon. the '60s was the fertile soil when the marxists started to push their agenda. it was started 50 years before that when the early progressives targeted the hearts and minds of the schoolroom. the whole story really gives you an understanding of protesting at school boards, i actually quote you in this book, rachel. it's a wonderful thing. but it's like charging a machine gun nest with a nerf gun. we salute your efforts, but you're not going to win if you think just protesting is going to change the system. it's our job to be awake against the woke. know how deepen the fight is, and that's what "battle for the american mind" is.

if i may, i've done a lot of talking, i'm really excited about this. rachel: we are too. pete: here's a quick excerpt that i'll read real quick. critical theory insists students must become self-loathing activists, scientists with raised fists by turning traditional liberal art as subjects into science, critical theorists focus their efforts on dissecting and then tearing down the society ool, cultural, political, religious and economic layers that utopians stifle their so-call progress. according to them, it's not that their systems don't work, it's the way we study them and understand them that is flawed, thus, the manner in which we study society has changed. enter the social sciences. so, yes, modern social sciences like political science or things like social studies which we all know previously used to be known as individual disciplines like history, economics, geography and philosophy. all of these new sciences are by-products of a marxist

philosophy. you have to let that sink in. the manner in which we study politics, history and economics, social studies in our private and public schools told, is a product of marxism. we all took social studies -- rachel: yes, we did. pete: so did you and your grandkids. that very idea was created by marxists to dissect individual disciplines, give it to us in a classical tradition to enrich our understanding of free thinking. they wanted to turn it all into a laboratory of utopian thinking. will: wow. rachel: so when you really sort of put this all down to its roots, what they're trying to do is turn our children into little activists. pete: absolutely. rachel: and they need to separate your child from the parents, the parents' values, from the cultural values of america, the tradition aal values of america in order to get them to do that for them. and what i love about what you've done, pete, is that you get us to the root of where this came from. again, it didn't start in the

'60s which is something e thought until i read and saw your miseducation on fox nation. but also you give the solution which is classical education. if if you don't know what that means, you should know what that means. it explains both miseducation on fox nation and also in this book, and that's what parents need to understand. classical education based on great books and on western, you know, ideas, that is the answer and that is the solution. and, frankly, you will not find that in a public school. pete: the opening quote is only the educated are free. to think freely. that's what a liberal arts education. it means a liberated mind. rachel: right. pete: to your point, there are three chapters in here about the solution. the answer is out there, the question is will parents if grandparents radically reorient their lives, or are we instead going to send our kids to democrat camp? if which is effectively what government schools are right now. will: can hear your passion.

[laughter] >> i think everyone does. so i think the challenges that we face is, of course, we're looking at inflation, we're looking at gas prices. i have a food truck, and so just commuting, getting back and forth is a little bit difficult for us because in two years, of course, we've doubled in gas prices. so i monitor that very close. and then we're looking at employees. it's very difficult to hire employees because, you know, of course i cannot pay, you know, the salaries that others can pay. they're paying $12-15 an hour,

and, you know, i can't, i can't offer benefits, i can't offer, you know, vacations or -- rachel: right. >> -- things like that. rachel: these big corporations can handle this kind of inflation and the supply chain, and the rules and regulations that are making it harder for people to go to work or incentivizing them not to go to work -- >> exactly. rachel: i get ya. brad, tell me what you're facing in in this economy. it's really fascinating. >> we make 100% manufactured in the usa tap handles, so all of our less sips, plastics, woods are all sourced from american vendors. so we don't struggle with the overseas delays. we also allow people to come to us when they have issues, and we can rush things out for them, so it's given us a really good opportunity. but since day one, i've tried to insure all of our products and

rachel: back with a fox news alert, a new report showing hunter biden's closest business associates may have visited the white house and and other official locations at least, get this, 19 times while his dad was vice president. pete: whoa, this is new information, for sure. this comes after joe biden has repeatedly claimed that he had nothing to do with his son's business dealings. wow. will: carly shimkus here with the details of that report. >> reporter: that's right. the new york post reporting white house visitors' logs saying hunter biden's business partners made at least 19 visits to the white house while joe biden was vice president. eric met with then-vice president biden in the west wing in november 2010. in addition to that sit-down, he met with several, quote, aides of both joe and jill biden at

key moments in hunter's life when he was striking multimillion dollar deals in foreign countries including china. this, of course, casting even more doubt over joe biden's claim that he knew nothing of hunt her's business dealings according to e-mails found on the infamous laptop, eric was with also involved with joe biden's personal taxes and had access to his personal finances. hunter biden's top associate was serving as president of the rosemont seneca partners' investment fund which has since been dissolved. other e-mails on hunter's laptop says eric handled joe's delaware tax refund check and also consulted with the then-vice president about his financial future. guys, back to you. will: wow. rachel: yeah. will: fascinating information. pete: if i may, a lot of this corruption story comes out in bits and pieces. i did have an interview this week with miranda devine on the

will cained pod katz on youtube, you can listen to it. how this entire story is beginning to be tied together and really how you can piece the puzzle pieces together to see the depth of this potential corruption. rachel: it's interesting they mentioned jill biden. jill and joe both had keys to-up hunter biden's office which she shared with a chinese businessman who had close ties to the chinese government. so there's really been a lot of evidence even outside of the laptop that there have been connections and that hunter's been basically supporting the family for many years. pete: and now we know it is a revolving door at the white house as well when joe biden was there, leaving everyone to wonder how does it impact the policies we're seeing right now across the globe? rachel: that is an important part. pete: it's all about not hunter biden, but joe biden, what he knew and when he knew it. we're live in talladega which means brad cause allow sky is here -- keselowski is here.

of me, and you go, wow -- [laughter] that was really close. and i'm very thankful for the team that we have that prepares the car. i kind of put that in the back of my head and say, all right, gotta move on. pete: is it just that much faster at talladega because it's that much bigger? >> yeah. this is the biggest track we have in the nascar circuit. 2.6 miles. a lot of bank, which helps cars as you guys saw earlier, get around the corner faster. gives us a big, steep boost. will: i want to ask you, brad, what we were talking about off camera. you can imagine how a young kid gets involved in basketball or soccer. how did you get started -- i know it's in the family. >> yeah. will: literally the first time you're behind a wheel, how old were you? >> my dad and uncle came to the first talladega race in 1969, and it was quite a sight. much different thanked today, but they loved racing. they worked on people's cars,

helped drivers and had their own shop as i grew up, and i was very fortunate to learn from that -- will: how old were you when you first raced? >> my first cup race i was in my early 20s, but my first race ever i was 14 years old. it worked out. rachel: when you actually got behind a wheel? how old were you? >> oh, gosh, 5 years old. if there was something to drive whether it was go carts, anything, please, let me drive, dad. pete: the answer to your question is, yes, our kids are already behind. [laughter] rachel: competitive dads. pete: brad, how about this season? talk to me about the new cars, next generation cars? is that a challenge? >> oh, yeah, big challenge. this year in nascar the style of the car has changed dramatically. we had a whole fleet of cars that went by the wayside is, we have the nascar next gen, and it's to help more exciting

finishes, and i think it's been very successful. if you watched this past week in bristol, tennessee, one of the best races we've ever had. our ratings are higher than in quite some time, and we're super excited about what that means for our support -- sport. we think we're in a growth trajectory. will: i watched last weekend, a lot of passing. today, get out front, stay out front, stay safe? >> that's what it's going to take. easier said than done. will. will: we'll be watching. pete: get out front, stay out front, stay safe. avoid the big with crash. brad, thank you very much is. rachel: thanks for admitting it's scary. pete: a little. ricky stenhouse was like, no -- >> yeah, that's a crock. [laughter] rachel: all right. pete: that happens with drivers, you get going against each other off the track, on the track. great to talk to you. all right, we are clearly revving up for the geico 500.

will: before you can watch the race on spock fox sports, i got a chance to get a behind the scenes preview. a take a look. this is what it sounds like, feels like, looks like if you're in the stands here at talladega, but how does fox sports put it on your television? we'll find out. this is the truck that turns a race into television. take us inside and show us how we do it. this is the control center, jake. tell me what i'm looking at. >> you have the director, the producer here, the technical director over there who's pretty much making all this work. we're going to have about 40 cameras all around the track that are going to document what's going on on sunday. i'll -- will: how long before the big crash happens and you turn it to the television screen? >> tape machines, the producers put it on. will: so seconds. >> seconds. >> green flag is in the air and

we are racing at at talladega! will: hey, look, it's jamie little, calling the race tomorrow. in the in the booth, jimmy, how different is that from what you're normally doing on pit road during the races? >> it is so different. i've been a reporter for nascar forever, like 15 years plus. i take off that reporter hat a little bitful. will: what are you doing in here, studying? >> yes. i'm studying right now. this is the practice is session happening right now. you kind of watch, you look at the scenes here, who's going to be fast, who's working together because at talladega it's all about the draft. you're looking to see who's friends or who's being left out. taking mental notes and getting ready to go up in the booth and talk about these guys and ladies who we see on the screen. >> you don't think that this is going to be one of the coolest shows ever, then i think you're wrong. will: here we are now, fox sports broad broadcast booth, michael walters, analyst on game

day. command center, michael? >> yeah, it is. one of the most exciting, thrilling racetracks we visit all year long. look at the size of this place. we're not just covering a football field. we're covering it at 200 miles an hour. will: you have a lot of instruments at your disposal, monitor, track speeds, how long are your eyes trained on what's happening through the windshield? >> is i know that world out there, so i've got to keep it in mind. i've got to split my attention at times to make sure i understand what's going on in the big picture. but this is what it's all about, being able to focus on what the folks at home are seeing, explain to them manager they don't know. -- something they don't know. i've been in the cars, tell them things about what they don't know about what they're seeing on this screen and make it fun and entertaining. will: you're on air in about 10 minutes, we really appreciate you. >> i've got to make sure the

vocal cords are okay. i want to invite you to stay here and cover with me. will: the answer is, yes, i want to be here. behind the scenes, taking a look at what -- pete: you could do that, you know. we're not allowed to leave us, but you would -- will: i want to call a race. jamie little, you saw her in the piece, she's fox sports' pit reporter, and she is doing play by may on the race here today. jamie, great to have you this morning. >> thanks so much for having me. grow guys are here at the perfect time. absolutely gorgeous day. a doubleheader of racing today, a lot to look forward to. rachel: -- will: i asked jamie a lot of questions, i was fascinated not only by how much you take in and how much you have to channel into the information you receive, but how you do it when it's so loud. >> that's my world. i don't do well in a studio when it's nice and quiet.

my normal billion job is on pit road, so i'm listening to the team in the booth, my producer and i'm scanning drivers, so you have to get really good at listening in and honing in on the drivers when things are going wrong, things that you need to report and bring to the viewers. like you said though, when you're up in the booth, you've got to train yourself to watch that monitor. you're watching tv because you have to call it with what the viewers are seeing. rachel: wow. pete: what are the things you cue into to kind of give you a sense of what you need to be covering in the pits, what's significant or not? if i wouldn't know what -- where to start. >> you typically follow your best cars. say you're running with the guys who are running up front, so you're listening for things to go wrong, what they're reporting about their cars, if they're having an issue or what adjustments they're going to make. but here at talladega it's so unique because the racing is a different piece in itself. when you're watching from the booth and calling the race, you're watching -- we call it energy, but it's the lines that are forming -- pete: yeah, they do that.

>> that's one of the amazing things about this place. you can tell i love it here, i love this style of racing. the danger, the speeds, everyons match, you know, at 200 miles an hour. will: we keep hearing that, a chess match when it comes to these super speedways as opposed to maybe last weekend, a short track, a lot of passing. this is a team sport today. >> yes. and it's funny because you will see teammates that aren't really teammates, they might drive for the same manufacturer, but they work together. hey, i've got a ford, you've got a ford, let's work together, and we'll go to the front. so you have to find friends on the track. if you've gottenmies out there, today is not a good day. if you ooh lose the draft, you drop to the back. you cannot win this race without help. rachel: you have so much knowledge, so much information and education on what goes on here in all these races. the only experience i have besides being here is these guys give me homework before i come here -- [laughter] they say you have to watch days of thunder and talladega nights,

so i did and i have. [laughter] so my question to you is which one do you like better? >> talladega nights. i love it. [laugher] it's so funny. i just saw the car from the movie, it's over -- will: yeah, it is. >> it's funny because a lot of people that may not know anything about nascar, i've seen talladega nights, how real is it? we'ved had many moments -- [laughter] will: is rubbing racing? >> rub aring is racing, and it doesn't matter if you're at a quarter mile track or super speedway, 2.6 miles around, for sure. people, fans, they want to see that. rubbing is racing. if you're leaning on somebody to get to the front, we just saw it last week, the guy in third won the race. pete: there he was. will: i asked jamie yesterday, how long have you been into this? since she was a kid. >> i was such a tomboy. i fell in love with dirt bikes and dirt bike racing, and i wanted to tell the stories of the athlete.

they give up so much of their life to reach their treatment at such a young age, and -- dream. and i realized there were no women talking about it. i worked for another network for many years, but this is all i've ever known. will: you do a great job. >> thank you. rachel: fantastic job. >> thanks. it's fun to be on set with you. rachel: thanks so much. will: watch coverage of the geico 500 tomorrow at 2:30 eastern all on fox. pete: in addition to to racing that's going on today as well on fs1 and fox. jamie little, thank you very much. will: thanks, jamie. rachel: alabama may nottive riley green is headlining tonight's infield concert. pete: right now here's the tall keg georgia college great tornado band pretty soon, in a moment, performing telephone. ♪
