law enforcement or the military uniform to defend freedom. i think we have a little bit more of those verses in the song -- in the palm actually. beautiful for heroes proved in liberating strife, who more than self their country loved america america make god like gold refined the nobleness and every game defined. such a beautiful poem. >> that's second stanza we don't often hear. so as rachel mentioned we spent the last week of the united states military academy at west point. you hear me highlight that pioneer spirit, the entrepreneurial spirit pizza's of america but the state is about rebellion. the states but a successful revolution. the state is about a fight. and we talk about the warriors that i could be represented on the show today. i was running on west point and i'm going to bumble exactly what was said but it was emblazoned

across one of the buildings up there, a quote by dwight d hasn't soured this is a link to the extent of the head of the aggressors only set it strength. in other words strength must be met by strength. we are yes a ces a country thatt for freedom but had to fight. in order to win that fight we have to be a country grounded in the window well the wit and strength. >> rachel: i love the rebellious spirit. we had abby coming it all week i'd. i just want to say take that come up prince harry and england. we embodied a little bit of that when we are and west point and we got a sense of duty as well when we were at west point. what discipline and poise, and these are the best of the best that -- >> lawrence: and it was a beautiful couple of days. i was watching it on when you guys did a terrific job

last. >> lawrence: will be checking in and i have a ton of questions. so president biden had a tweet this past weekend that prompted a series of responses from america's richest individuals to the communist party of china. here's a tweet that's at the world in response beauties set my message to the company's running gas stations and setting prices at the pump. bring down the price you're charging at the pump to reflect the cost are paying for the product and do it now. telling the united states oil and gas producers it's your fault come you're couching, bring down your prices. to that the oil and gas association responded. speak to you before that the communist party basically tweeted out inside you're right, capitalism is exploitative,

finally you're catching on joe biden. finally the oil and gas association responded in a very kind of humorous way thing working on it, mr. president. in the meantime have a happy foursome please make sure the white house intern who posts for this tweet registers for econ 101. doesn't understand supply and demand. the fact that lawrence, he shuts on the keystone play play and refused to give more leases for gas. he is pressuring banks not the finance oil and gas and fossil fuel projects into the future. i just day one of his presidency but the moment he was elected he

saw gas prices started to go up as a result of this and policy after policy is going after the oil and gas companies. they made it very clear that precious, funny the president of the united states wants them to do something about it right now, but during the entire time these are the implications of this, he did nothing to help. this prompted a response from jeff bezos. this is what he set out set outcome inflation is far too important of a problem for the white house to keep making statements like this. i hope to prize the glycerol for jeff bezos. we all know that he hounds "the washington post." we know they were in the tank of the biden administration at the time. i just like to know come he's not the only progressive that's going against the biden administration commit thinks must be getting really bad for

them to start going after not the president just behind the scenes, but the public. >> the world's richest individuals have also something like $60 billion to's economy year. do you hear the oil and gas association has you pointed out, saying you're feeling basic understanding of economics. if your jeff bezos actually sings another option year and that's banking on the administration banking on us feeling economics and buying their lies of misdirection. jeff bezos saying the biden administration after trying for misdirection and trying to distract. john kirby the nfc coordinator for strategic communications was asked about the biden administration putting the shell game of attention. watch. speak of misdirection is a serious allegation from a business mogul of weapons to be the owner of "the washington post." >> anybody that knows

president biden says he has played in spoken and tells you exactly what is thinking in terms that everybody can understand. i think we obviously take great exception that this is somehow misdirection. the president of the speaking honestly with the american people about what he's trying to do to bring the prices down. >> i have to admit apple kirby is much better than coren at rick explaining things. we cannot understand the president, we don't understand which direction, he lies lie after lie not just from the podium but through tweet studies not even typing. there's -- jeff bezos pointed to a basic misunderstanding of how the market works. it's peter there's a bit of truth in what he said. he said occasionally joe biden slips and tells the truth and they did that what he said this is the great transition to green energy. that was true, this is a deliberate, intentional raising of gas prices through policies and regulations in order to

transition people to green energy. if he says he wants to play potent because that was originally, then he blamed gas and oil. he knew that russia -- that this war in russia would cause all kinds of problems. not just oil and gas, but that ukraine and russia were the bread basket of the world and that if you put this area or region into a big long war that it would disrupt the food supply in the world really. so there's a lot of things that he could have looked around the corner and saw her, starting with the keystone pipeline, all the way up to the war with russia i'd ukraine, that he is really at the center of. >> i would say being unscripted, rambling, and unpredictable as the same thing as being plainspoken. >> rachel: fair enough. now to the usfl come with the first coming to a dramatic and last night with the birmingham

stanwood leone's taking of the championships. >> the philadelphia start put up a pipe of the stallions came from mine with the stunning 54-yard drive and cruised on victory. >> lawrence: coming up next the highlight of that big game. hey, ashley. >> letter at the birmingham stallions are you're not a usfl still happens after the thrilling title came in canton, ohio, last night. that victory was getting really stellar to came from behind to win key games throughout the regular season but philadelphia didn't go down without a fight battling all the way to the end before falling 33-30. >> castella looking, but because can't field end. >> okay so stallions alignments could be right has three tackles the wild championship when purity is what he had to save the postgame interview. >> when you step in the trophy for the first time it's pretty cool to be able to do that.

which show the weights far outweigh cancellation goods were no more than 300 flights delay more than hundred canceled nationwide. those numbers could go up to the morning. the last several weeks millions of people been dealing with other delays or cancellations paid airlines a staffing shortages go up or whether all forcing changes but pressure is building of the biden administration to mentor passengers are not shortchanged. over the weekend transportation secretary pete buttigieg tweet about some travel advice saying sometimes an airline's can offer you .2 miles we wanted to let people know they can also get a cash refund when their flight is canceled. they need to weigh whether or not it's worth having the money or miles to putting what they are valuing. we also heard from congresswoman who said it's pete buttigieg the need to get its act together. he says the secretary needs to make it clear that he has the authority to go after the airlines for unfair and deceptive practices. he needs to lay out the framework for what the consequences will be for canceled flights, understaffing, and work misrepresentation to passengers. vermont senator bernie

bernie sanders going further. he wants the department of transportation to impose a number of new regulations including requiring airlines re-issue refunds properly for a bit of delay and face fines for not properly demand planning act current staffing. one thing the government is not controlling as the rising price of airfare is up 45% from 2019. some airlines have already scaled back their late scouts or schedule to ensure they have enough staffing. that also means fewer seats are for sale. i did check the free cookies in the main cabin are still available free of charge. >> be real now. are you really excited about that when they come around without these days? >> i take as many as we can. i grabbed them and put them in my bag and ate them for like six days afterwards days afterwards. >> they are tasty. i will give you that they are tasty but it feels so meager. you like this is what i get? >> thanks, mark.

>> rachel: how do guys like your transportation secretary acting more like a customer service agent that the airline? >> think he's coming for kurt knutson's job. now they're going to give you more than halftime smile but you can be going for a refund. there's something more that the secretary of transportation can be doing and i think even democrats have pointed out are starting to acknowledge that. this is yet another breakdown. and not just of supply chains but the travel team when you combine it with gas prices. >> rachel: do you really like -- i disagree with both of them. i mean i look at what pete buttigieg has done and what bernie sanders and the representatives in california, all three of those people are responsible for the staffing issues at these airlines are facing. they had all these mandates, vaccine, mask mandates, they had lockdowns, all of this impacted the airline and may people

retire early, or get fired. then they go we are so mad at you because you have staffing issues. were going to come after you. they are also complaining, and i'm with bernie sanders on this, he went after it said what about the $54 billion would give you. >> lawrence: we gave them all the money. >> rachel: where is the teachers union money back i want all the money back. >> lawrence: they need to get something some of us out of under control. this is nonsense. about a third of the flights have been canceled. i mean there is a simple solution to this, to start my putting those times up there. just cancel a third of the flights and link of a specialist we know what were going to get. but all the delays come the air traffic control, the flight attendants, it's a big mess and it's another scandal in the biden administration. they had everything under control, the adults are back can't even manage the airlines

special. it's something that should be celebrated on something that we should have parades down the street. we should scream it from the rooftops. it is something beautiful and special to be part of this country. if you were born here you won the lottery. you are so lucky to be here. yes we can improve have something beautiful here. >> can i tell you guys on saturday night imagine we have prayed on for our sleep and have to get up and preventing him who lost both of his legs in the battle for the united states of america, joey jones who lost both of his legs fighting for this country, evan hechler, several other great veterans were all going to have a nice little cocktail at the end of the night. thought to myself why did you

go, well, why didn't you listen to the story. obviously we all have great -- i'm just curious the question i would've asked is is there something is how to listen to a store is there among you guys, is there a common theme? i'm sure there's different motivating factors but when your vessel get get together do you see a threat that is, in and one of you? >> we wish misty first of all. we wish we were at the fair hotel just inside of west point. we have a medal of honor's recipient. >> what a crowd. >> it was a ride. the bartender looks over us they put a bottle of horse whiskey on it from special forces group. in the common bond there, like you.

united states. people forget about the sacrifice and how terrible this world can be. it is something worth fighting for. i do have hope and belief in my countrymen. i've been frustrated with my country of late i've never been more proud of my countrymen. the things they've done in afghanistan, stepping up to help us and our allies all over the country. i know americans. it is still thriving and that gives me hope. speed to end america has this remarkable redeem itself. we talked about the feeling of malaise, we've held up before during the carting years by then we had ronald reagan and morning in america again and were a longing that. my heart did great when i saw tim, it's hard not to. tim, your mind is about that american spirit. 1776, that spirit. do you think you much.

for a lot of americans, they just seem to not care about the issue. i think that this with the economy will be the two daggers that will take the democratic party out at the selection. it is the border towns in texas and arizona that i can -- have already seen it and city council races. we sought like congressional race. but there is a direct correlation between illegal immigration as well as the economy. when republicans start the thread that needle i think you can us even more. >> i think you can put politics aside and show that this is the least empathetic administration of ever seen whether it's their lack of concern for what the pain there causing american families and for inflation and they don't care because they say we need to transition or we need -- what do they need to call it? the liberal world order? they don't care. those 56 people that died in that truck those temperatures

all those pictures you showed. alexander hamilton is also that you are a descendant of his. tell us about that. >> well, he was, as you know, killed in the duel with the vice president of the united states, aaron burr, and aaron burr went through quite a bit of trouble from then on. i think he was tried for treason but acquitted, and of course his grave is in trinity church in new york with his wife, elizabeth schuyler. >> lieutenant colonel, we often look at these pictures and read the history. what an honor to actually meet somebody who is a piece of american history. thank you for joining us this morning and happy early birthday and happy fourth of july to an american hero. >> thank you. thank you very much. >> we'll be back with more "fox & friends."

to towers. this beautiful display of patriotism on the fourth of july. here's what we're doing right now. we are tracking team fast-track. they are performing an american flag sky dive right here live on "fox & friends." i can see on my television off to the side, it looks like it's by helmet cam or camera, they are about to leap out of that plane. oh, this is in memory of the former member and u.s. navy special warfare chief, and they are going to trail behind them a 5,000 square-foot american flag. and we are going to time this hopefully to take place right here at the top of the 8:00 hour here on fox. >> rachel: just so you guys know this is the one fox & friends thing that we will never do. speak to me, too >> do not ask me. it's not happening. this looks so scary to me! >> will: they are doing this

over middletown, ohio. >> lawrence: i'm really impressed at the speed it's keeping up in the sky. >> will: so neither of you have jumped out of an airplane and you don't plan to? >> rachel: no, i will not do that. >> lawrence: they keep pitching it and i keep denying it. >> rachel: that's probably why they want to do it with you, lawrence. [laughs] >> will: you would be very entertaining. this is an awesome shot. look at this. >> rachel: so they have a flag that they are going to -- >> will: a 5,000 square-foot american flag. this is going to be beautiful display of patriotism but it's also in memory of chief ron condrey honoring his life in service to this country. he died of traumatic brain injury. obviously many years in combat and they want to draw attention, as well, to concussion research from a traumatic brain injury. that took his life in 2018.

>> rachel: what a great cause. >> lawrence: apparently that is a 5,000 square-foot american flag they plan on. >> will: that's a beautiful shot over america right there. >> rachel: oh, i thought they were going to stretch it out in the sky. >> lawrence: is that what they're going to do? >> will: you're exhausting my knowledge, lawrence. [laughter] >> lawrence: i didn't think they could do it in the sky because it messes up the parachute. >> will: i think it's going to be a big flag display. >> rachel: in the sky, correct? that was my understanding. >> will: that is awesome. we are going to take this all the way to the ground. >> rachel: producers, are we doing that? >> will: they're going to display a flag. >> rachel: that's what i heard! >> lawrence: really? >> will: oh, yeah. >> lawrence: now, that's skill. >> rachel: is there a cause,

lawrence, that is so great -- >> lawrence: are you really doing this to me right now? >> rachel: is there a cause that would make you want to overcome this fear in order to do that? >> lawrence: is there a cause? >> rachel: like this guys, it's the flag. do you love america and up to jump out of a plane? [laughter] >> will: and i have to go. >> lawrence: if you do it with me, if you agreed to do it with me, i'll do it. how much do you love america? >> rachel: [laughs] there it is! they did it! look at that, old glory. that's beautiful. >> will: this crew also does pyrotechnics as part of their skydive. now you see the red, white, and blue pyrotechnics behind some of the skydivers. lawrence, to your point, i was curious. it's a 5,000 square-foot flag

trailing one of the skydivers. i did wonder how much that affects -- look, there's the aerodynamics of the parachute, but what kind of tension is that on whatever it's mounted to? his body, somewhere along his body, he's got that weight of that 5,000 square-foot flag. but that is beautiful and amazing. so that's awesome that you two are going to do this. >> rachel: [laughs] >> will: i think it's really cool. >> lawrence: next fourth of july? >> rachel: i have nine children! [laughter] i have a lot to live for! [laughter] >> will: she pulls out the nine children card to get out of it. >> rachel: lawrence is going to get a dog soon. [laughs] oh, dear.

>> will: what an awesome display, a beautiful display. we'll keep an eye on that as they descend. >> lawrence: oh, there's another one! >> rachel: maybe all of them are going to do that. is that possible? >> will: why do you keep looking at me? [laughter] >> rachel: we are going to go with it! i was only expecting one, now we have two. can't have enough slides on the fourth of july, lawrence. >> lawrence: that's right. >> will: we'll keep our eye on this the next couple of minutes as they descend over ohio. >> lawrence: the uss constitution in boston is prepared to make its annual sale this independence day. fox nation host abby hornacek is there now. hey, abby. >> hey, you guys. that's right. this is the uss constitution right here behind me and also the oldest commissioned warship that is still afloat in the entire world. later today we will be hopping on board and shooting out of a cannon in the 21-gun salute in

honor of independence day. this really is a great way to celebrate the fourth of july, because this ship means so much to our history as a country. she got her name, old ironsides, and the war of 1812 when an american sailor sought 24-pound cannon balls bouncing off the sides. he yells, "her sides of made of iron." we've been doing it all day long. just a quick look back, too, yesterday at the boston harbor fest they put on the first annual patriotic pooch parade. most creative went to a 14-year-old shihtzu. there was a rescue husky traveling with a bald eagle who won best in show. we are used to seeing people decked out in their red, white, and blue but it was nice to see their four-legged friends also showing their patriotism. patriotism really has been a theme here in boston, the cradle

of liberty, and it is something we are going to be exploring all day long, you guys. >> rachel: abby, thank you so much. we love those pictures of the pooches. first of all, thank you for all your coverage from boston. a reminder for families, especially those with children, to go and see all of these wonderful patriotic sites we have in america. boston is a beautiful city with a very deep history of america. a great place to go. the pooch parade, we had a lot of discussion about the pooch parade, will. you called it the bald eagle of dogs. >> will: the black lab. >> rachel: i suggested that she wallow and he said that was very mexican of me. but you need to look at the census data! it's going to become the chihuahua! probably so. i love chihuahuas and i love black labs. he's not a small dog person. >> will: me, no. not a small dog person.

they are on the right side of the screen, you can see it's the fast tracks skydiving team trailing several 5,000-foot american flags here in the fourth of july on "fox & friends," as they descend over middletown, ohio, coming in for a landing right here. >> rachel: let's watch and land. it is the hardest part, by the way, of jumping out? i think the hardest part is getting out of the plane. >> lawrence: there is a third one, rachel. >> rachel: wow. look at that. what a tribute. what attribute. to america and to their friends. >> lawrence: that is beautiful. and, rachel, you have agreed that we are going to do the jump next year. >> rachel: i totally deserve what's happening to me right

now. um, maybe. >> will: there we go, that's a "yes." >> lawrence: the producers are working on it. >> rachel: i heard that! [laughter] >> will: we are glad to have you with us on this fourth of july. whether it's american flags descending from the sky or situated behind us, as you celebrate, head into your independence day celebration barbecue, family, friends, perhaps a parade, and certainly fireworks. meanwhile, there is still news out there in the world, including this. the biden administration over the weekend taking it to oil and gas companies. joe biden tweeted the following on saturday. "my message to the company's running gas stations in setting prices at the pump is simple: this is the time of war and global peril. bring down the price to reflect the cost you are paying for the product and do it now." rachel and lawrence, this has drawn the attention of jeff bezos', the chinese communist party, and now the u.s. oil and gas association. >> lawrence: i guess the big question is, before we get into

the response for this, we know from intelligence and all that that the biden administration knew that the war was coming. yet, he still tried to crush the oil and gas industry. if this is truly a time of war, why did he put all these regulations in place knowing full well this was going to happen? we know obviously that the price of oil and gas was going up the moment he was elected as president, and of course it's continued to go up. it wasn't just when the war started. >> rachel: you are absolutely right about that. you make such a great point, that when you go to war with russia, a great producer, and you limit your own gas and oil production over the last year, you're going to have a problem with gas and oil, which also impacts food and everything else we are seeing that we value. it's not just what's happening at the pump. here is what the u.s. oil and gas association had to say. by the way, this is very cheeky

of them. this was a treat. "working on it, mr. president. in the meantime, have a happy fourth and please make sure the white house intern who posted this tweet registered for econ 101 for the fall semester." noting that this is a complete misunderstanding or ignorance of how supply and demand works in a market economy. >> will: ignorance of supply and demand or an attempt to deflect and help the american public is ignorant on econ 101. that's what jeff bezos pointed out. "inflation is far too much of a problem for the light has to keep making statements like this. it's either straight-ahead misdirection or a deep misunderstanding of basic market dynamics." so i think when you put into context first blaming vladimir putin and now oil and gas companies directly, it is willful ignorance. it is a willful ignorance of econ 101, which in turn is an

attempt to misdirect everyone on the source of these troubles. >> and also to do nothing about it. he saw those little fingers at the gas pumps now that say he did this to the price of gas. and he is saying, it's them. the message to the american people is very clear. me, joe biden, i'm not going to do anything about it. i'm not going to change my policy. the american people aren't stupid. you're right, poll after poll shows the american people are blaming joe biden and rightfully so for inflation and the price of gas. and this is a sign that they're not going to change course. because that's what people do, politicians should do. good politicians. don't expect to be perfect, but when you realize you're hurting people, hurting families, people on fixed incomes, low income, for people who can put food on the table and can't send their kids to camp, can't live the

lives they were living just a year or two ago under the trump administration, i have to do is change back the policies. we know it worked. >> lawrence: i know we've got to run. i will also make this point. go around the country as you guys do. also the barbershop is the center of politics for black culture. when the diners on the barbershop are both saying the same thing, you know we are in trouble. you know the biden administration is in trouble. >> rachel: and the most to satisfy group in america, this is a group that you are winning by 20 something points in the last election. that's not a sign. >> lawrence: exactly right. >> will: let's get it carley shimkus has additional headlines with this morning. >> some more news, starting with this. a 20-year-old man in los angeles is being held on $5,000 bail accused of firing a gun shot into the riverside police station last month. surveillance video shows a man driving into the police station parking lot and then firing a single round through the window before speeding away. cameras cut the license plate

joining us now with their independence day message, medal of honor recipient dakota meyer and former green beret scott mann. two individuals i've had the pleasure to get to know somewhat over the years. dakota, you and i, as we've mentioned, have known each other quite a long time. your story is when every american should know. medal of honor recipient. as he reflects on america, what are your thoughts? >> it's the same as it's always been. i am just so fortunate that not only do i get to live in the greatest country on the face of the planet, i just go around speaking to attend the service members out of hawaii, and it's the same. i am just so fortunate to live in the greatest country on the face of the planet. i'm so honored this country allows me to represent the nation and go serve it, and even better i get to raise my kids here. it is such a great country. we've got our problems, but we are like a big family, right? i promise you this, i've been to a ton of other countries and i'm still proud to be an american.

>> will: scott mann, green beret, author of the book "game changer." i would say i'm two-thirds of the way finished with your book as we speak. as you talk about your fight in afghanistan and the fight to take it local, to build afghanistan from the ground up over the years, i've got to tell you, scott, throughout the entire process, i thought about small towns, our culture, and how we come together and build from the ground up. >> it so true. it's good to see you again. i was talking the other day to my buddy, a green beret who did that mission, as well. he was shot through the neck in afghanistan and paralyzed from the shoulders down. we are just talking about how his life has changed. it's been over ten years since that injury. and he said, "i wouldn't change a thing." "the american people are worth it." i thought, wow matt, how do we find people like this who are willing to do what they and their families have endured? here's what i'll tell you, what

i think about this fourth of july is, as americans, how are we showing up for each other, like dakota said? i think we are way too divided and it's a social contract. we got to honor what people like dakota did and treat each other better at home. >> will: that's absolutely true. scott said something, you are in very rare company, as everybody knows. as a medal of honor recipient. however, i was with somebody in your country do my company this past weekend and he said something scott said. he was once told it when someone says thank you for your service or thank you for what you did and he wanted to respond, "you're worth it." talking about everyday americans out there who are on the other end of receiving what you two, quite honestly, both of you have done for this country. i want to say first of all thank you to both of you, and as we come back to you here in the end, what is it you think about when people say thank you for your service?

>> i just think about thank you for allowing you to save you. i have got to represent this country on the face of this planet. no matter how you want to look at this political agenda, our service members go over and we win the wars. they are the ones that lose it for us. they are the ones to make the decision. and i tell people all the time, when there is an american flag on the face of this planet, on the globe, the world is a better place. and that's because we are america and because it's the country we are. and like they said, you are worth it. the american people are worth it. we are much more alike than we are divided. if we choose -- if we are not together, if we are not united, it's because we've chosen that. so change your choice. we all have our differences. we don't have to agree, but at the end of the day we are

allowed to not agree and have our own lives because we live in the greatest country on the face of the planet. >> will: i want to end this with you, scott. i mentioned earlier in the show, this weekend i happen to have a pleasure to be around a bunch of special operators like yourself. i want to have that whiskey with them as they sit around and tell war stories and asked, what is the tie that binds? what is the common inspiration among you guys to serve? >> it's just a love for each other, man. i've been texting with them, we are all retired now, but we had texting, with all our old buddies. it's just a love for her tether and the love for our families and not letting each other down. and i'll always remember that. i know dakota can relate to that, too. but it's the love for one another and the love for our country. >> will: it's a pleasure to know you guys. we at "fox & friends" onset and everyone in america appreciate every thing you given. thank you so much. up next, carley shimkus takes us
