>> steve: great to have you here today. >> todd: thank you, sir. >> steve: three hours of news and starts with this. for years we have told you that walls work. and we have graphic proof of just that so, just imagine. there is a wall on our southern border, right? and the migrants are on the mexican side and they cannot get through to the american side. and it was not until our man down on the border, bill melugin tweeted this out yesterday that we saw that we now know how some of the migrants are getting in even though the walls are working. look at this. >> ainsley: the walls work and the gates work if the locks stay on them. look at this video. so the fox news was down there. and we witnessed the national guard locking this gate at the border on private property at a major crossing area in eagle pass to deny the illegals to come -- further into the u.s. then fox news witnesses the border patrol agents come along with a key. they open the gate to illegals that are standing outside of the gate and allowed them to go through for processing. all with the texas national guard just standing there watching. >> todd: of course, greg abbott

not happy about this writing the following in response. unbelievable while texas secures the border, the federal government is enabling illegal immigration. biden's open border policies cause this crisis the federal government must do its job to fix. to review. literally the biden administration has been telling us for two years now that the border is closed. yet, we now have literal video evidence of them owning the border that the texas authorities had closed. >> steve: and what's interesting. this is not public land. those national guardsmen and the border patrol people are on u.s. soil but it's owned by private property owners. and so, essentially what they are doing, is those guys, okay. so this is being taken from the united states decide as you see. that member of joe biden's border patrol unlocked the gate. bill melugin says that closing the gate and keeping people out is nothing new for the most

part. the gate has been open in the past and bill was back there in may. but what is new today is the fact that the texas national guard at the direction of the governor down there, mr. abbott, they locked it up. obviously the property owner said, you know, let's lock it up so they did. what happens? the border patrol comes in with a key, and unlocks it as i rememberly so they can process those migrants. and so the migrants, there are about 25 or so. something like that. they come out. they are now on u.s. soil. they were processed. next thing you know what does the national guard do? well, with the border patrol, they lock the gate back up. >> ainsley: so it's the texas national guard doing one thing and then biden's border patrol doing something else, unlocking the gate and letting them in. if you look at the numbers. the migrants sent here to new york city over the past two weeks. 800 plus. that's a total of 15 buses. and greg abbott has hired private security to look after the migrants on the buses come in new york. the city commissioner of the

mayor's office of immigration affairs says he is putting them on the buses, these security guards to prevent the migrants from hopping off on their way to new york city. if you listen to tom homan, he used to be the -- he was the acting ice director for a while. and works here at fox as a contributor. he says that he predicts at the end of this fiscal year, which ends on september 30 on it, he says a total of 4 million encounters, since biden has been president. and he is predicting there will be 1 million got aways. that's a total of 5 million illegal entries into the u.s. just in biden's first two years alone, basically. >> todd: the number that cbp giving us 2 million. regardless whether it's 2, 4, or 5 it is a lot and shouldn't happen. >> ainsley: 2 million this fiscal year. >> steve: so many coming to new york. and we saw four buses showed up from texas yesterday live on our air. we were able to show you a couple of those. a couple of days ago we told you how new york city was renting

out a nice hotel called former lear the milford plaza also known as the lulu by of broadway just a couple of blocks away from the port authority right there. that's the hotel for now it's now called row hotel nyc. >> ainsley: those are the computers in the lobby you can get on the internet for free. >> steve: wifi cafe. the city we told you was essentially going to open up 1,000 hotel rooms here in new york city now they are looking for another 5,000 hotel rooms to put the migrants in from texas. it new york city is looking for an extra 5,000 hotel rooms to house bulled in migrants so now we will have illegal migrants instead of tourists in our hotels, imagine the impact on our economy, crime and tax dollars. >> todd: that tourist point is so app. let's realize where the milford

plaza is heart of broadway machines the song. if they're putting hotel rooms in the heart of broadway this is tourist central. when you come to times square. come to this area tourist you are coming to times square. they're going to fill these now, to your point with tons of illegals. they are not going to get the revenue from those tourists then spending money in and around the area. it's going to be bad for the city. it's also going to be ridiculous. you don't come here to get the migrant experience you come here to get the tourist experience. >> steve: do you know what about the point number way down. federal government is going to buy 5,000 actually now 6,000 hotel rooms in new york city per day, hotel people are going, you know what? that's money in our pockets. >> ainsley: we don't know who these people are they haven't been vetted. we don't know safe or not and we worry about the fentanyl that's coming across. you have congressman john

indicated dough from, he is a republican from new york. and he said in his city yesterday, he was interviewed yesterday so this was on tuesday. in his city in syracuse 14 drug overdoses from fentanyl 14 just in his city. he just returned from the congressional delegation to central america, guatemala, honduras and el salvador. overrun by drug trafficking and influence of the cartels, the cartels are fat and happy because of our southern border. >> steve: just one other thing as you look at some of the migrants who came off of the texas buses yesterday. i think the federal government is realizing in a weird way, greg abbott was actually right. maybe because there is such a problem on our southern border with all those migrants in those small border communities, you know, taxing the situation down there. so what did he do? he rented these buses. they brought people up here and now apparently republicans are trying to probe whether or not the joe biden administration is

talking to amtrak to essentially put the migrants on the train and just take them wherever amtrak goes. one quote is and this could be a problem. this is what republicans are worried about. they say it could cause disruptions for regular amtrak commerce. it could interrupt freight traffic and this could be a significant supply chain issue. >> trains not full suddenly full of migrants where do they go? they go wherever they want. >> todd: northeast corridor. >> carley: florida judge is set to decide today whether the public will see that affidavit green lighting the raid on mar-a-lago. we are live ahead of today's high stakes hearings. steve: plus, we have been waiting for this. the cdc admits they blew it on covid. the report is outlining its failures during the pandemic and what changes the agency is vowing to make.

>> ainsley: all eyes are on a florida courtroom where a judge is expected to rule today on whether to unseal the affidavit that was used to justify the raid on president trump's house. >> steve: keep in mind now the judge presiding over the search warrant used by the fbi to execute the search that sent shock waves throughout the nation on both sides of the political aisle. >> todd: kevin corke has the very latest. kevin? >> good morning, folks, it could

be pretty soon now before we finally figure out if a federal judge in the great state of florida will, in fact, will unseal the affidavit that investigators use to justify that search of mar-a-lago. it's been a major point of contention between the government, the former president, his supporters, even the news media. family members say, look, there is nothing to hide. let's see what the affidavit says. now, for the doj's perspective, well, they are arguing against unsealing the document, claiming it could, quote: compromise an ongoing criminal investigation. now, all this is happening while the former president and his allies on capitol hill, as i mentioned some media companies are urging the court to disclose that affidavit because of the public's clear and powerful interests. now, listen to this from "newsweek." i found it fascinating in this piece that said this: to justify the unprecedented raid on a former president's residence, agents went into trump's residence on the pretext that they were seeking all government documents. but the true target was this

private stash which the doj feared trump might weaponize. meanwhile an op-ed in the "wall street journal" suggests that the former and possibly future president would be unrestrained if he would return to power. quote, a perceived political prosecution of mr. trump could help him to a second term and even more unreal strained as the 47th president than he was as the 45th. a chance, perhaps, it was suggested to do to obama and clinton and biden what's been done to him. now, also, i should point this out. today's hearing comes as investigators continue to sort troves of documents including some they claim labeled top secret and highly classified. they collected at mar-a-lago last week. by the way, there is also this. some of that material was allegedly attorney-client privileged. so we will have to see what happens with all of that, guys.

>> steve: we have heard all of that i'm sure they are going to make all of those arguments. kevin, thank you very much. if i had to bet a dollar. >> ainsley: they won't unseal. >> steve: i'm sure the government is going to say as kevin said it's a criminal investigation. you don't want to release any information before it's determined whether or not they there are going to be charnghtsz because you would hate to sully the reputation of an innocent person. and i bet the government is going to say it's of national security interest and so, todd, if you are up for taking the dollar bet. i bet they won't unsteel. >> todd: here is my problem with it, while you are correct it's not normal town seal an affidavit at this point, and so you are likely going to win this bet, this is not a normal case. a normal case doesn't get 1 millth of the attention this case is getting and doesn't get all the leaks this case is getting. in order to fill in the blanks we need it unsealed wanted but redacted. any first year associate can redact it so that the problems the government is worried about don't happen. >> ainsley: everyone is just shocked because it's unprecedented and never happened before.

you are right. we need to find out all the facts and don't wait to fill in the blanks. judicial watch, the reason they want it unsealed they say the secrecy calling the nation to convulse with intrigue and harmful speculation that will only increase the longer the truth is kept from the public. >> steve: todd, to your point about the leaks, what kevin was just detailing, these leaks apparently came, according to "newsweek," high ranking intel community members. so, we don't know who is leaking this stuff. we don't even know if it's true last week people were talking about it's about nuclear weapons and stuff like that. we heard that once. we haven't heard that since. >> ainsley: there is a lot of speculation but no one knows. >> todd: coming up a the 7:40 lara trump. you know she has something to say about that. meantime somebody who has a lot to say between 4:00 and 6:00 in the morning is my friend carley shimkus. >> carley: certainly do. good morning to you all. headlines to get to here. couple went missing on the same day as california teen kylie

erase a bunch of student debt. and you have heard him say it. here is a montage. watch. >> we are looking to make two year community college free for everyone who earns it. >> immediately provide $10,000 in debt relief. if you come from a family where you are making less than $125,000 a year you are able to go to a state university for free. >> the legislation passed by the democratic house calls for knead $10,000 forgiveness of student loan. it should be done immediately. >> i am considering dealing with some debt reduction. i am not considering $50,000 debt reduction. >> steve: so how much is he considering? that's the question. >> ainsley: so right now there is a pause on paying back your student loan. 0 percent interest. it continues to expire and then the president continues to extend it. that's happened. >> steve: kick the can. >> ainsley: happened six times in the past 2 with president trump and four times with it

president biden because of the pandemic. don't have to pay it back. zero percent interest. we are wondering if he is going to extend it 13 more days until that runs out at the end of august. listen to how much it will cost. $20 billion to extend the current pause on student loan payments through the end of this year. and it's going to cost 230 billion if president biden gives $10,000 per person to, you know, to knock off 10,000 of your student debt. >> steve: right. >> ainsley: here is what analysts are questioning. this is going to hurt inflation. going to make inflation even worse. but they just passed this bill that allegedly is going to reduce inflation. so they are countering each other. >> steve: they are. and we just put that number. this is jaw-dropping. you know, the president says we are not in a recession. ask the people at target? yesterday the numbers came out and as you can see, their profits plunged 90% in the second quarter. that's far shorter -- short of expectations because simply people stopped buying stuff.

and why did they stop buying stuff? because the cost of your gas and the cost of your food is so much higher and so you are not buying things like clothes. i mean, how many families said, you know what? you still have close from last year no new back-to-school clothes. not going to get new electronics. not going to get new furniture. target has got warehouses full of stuff so to get rid of it they have to put it on sale. look at the numbers. they are terrible. >> todd: old adage when times are tough people shot at walmart. when times are good they shop at target. known in the business community target is a little bit more high priced. slashing prices and still down 90%. that is something. >> ainsley: walmart's profits is down, too. >> todd: walmart is not crushing but not as bad as target. >> steve: walmart has more groceries. >> todd: forgiving loans isn't the exact same as printing money. what does that do? it puts more money in the economy. more money chasing fewer goods.

what is that, again? i believe that's called inflation. >> ainsley: i think also people aren't going out and going to fancy parties or needing dresses as much. i think covid taught us, too. that we want to be more casual and appreciate your family and many of us changed our schedules. we were so busy before and we just said look, we realize we enjoy staying at home with our family. we are spending more time your kids. i don't think we need as much. we don't have to buy as much. also of course inflation. people are saving their money because we were told we are going to be in a recession. we are technically by definition we are in a recession. people are saving. >> steve: to your point about people aren't dressing up as much. do you know who that is really killing in addition to the people who sell the clothes? >> ainsley: the retail market? >> steve: the dry klein cleaners. i talked to danny at the dry cleaners he went to school with my daughter sally and now he owns the dry cleaners in our town. it's getting better but at the height of the pandemic nobody was bringing in clothes to be

clean. >> ainsley: men aren't wearing as many suits. guys don't need buttons downs washed and pressed. here in new york a lot of people are working from home. some are working from home mondays and fridays. traffic is a little bit better on mondays. >> steve: can i get out of the city in about 8 minutes on friday it's great. >> todd: shocker. >> ainsley: not in the afternoon on friday. steve: that's why we work the morning show to get out early and be with todd. >> todd: i appreciate that. new york city transit worker comes under attack while helping two women. see it there in a hospital bed recovering from surgery as we learn that suspect has more than 40 prior arrests. the mom and union leader joins us live to call for justice. aken the next day. so betty can be the... barcode beat conductor. ♪♪ go betty! ♪♪ let's be more than our allergies! zeize the day. with zyrtec.

# alleged suspect has more than 40 prior arrests including assault on asian-american woman last year. anthony's mom, lisa nelson joins us right now along with robert kelly, the vice president of transport union local 100 which represents him. good morning to both of you. >> good morning. >> steve: lisa, how is your son?

>> he is in a lot of pain. you know, he got home yesterday from the hospital. he is asleep now. >> steve: i bet. and, robert, in reading the stories that i read about this guy, who did the attacking. you know, what do you have to do in this town to get arrested? he has got and we have got a graphic. he has got 41 prior charges, including second degree assault. harassment, felony criminal mischief, assault as a hate crime. and then it goes on and on. hate crime and he threw hot coffee, i think, on a couple of cops. what do you have to do in this city to get arrested and stay in jail? >> yeah. so, let me just say this, i think that that speaks volume how the system has let us down. you know, the bail reform has to at the very least be tweaked. this guy should not have been out of jail at all.

after the first time he shouldn't have been out of jail. so here this is 40 assaults later, my mr. nelson is laid up with two surgeries. this is a travesty. >> steve: it absolutely is. lisa, i don't know, did you support these changes to the criminal justice system in new york state before regarding bail reform? were you behind this? because i know now you are against it. >> yes. i am. i was never supportive of it. >> steve: okay. >> you do a crime on the street, you should be accountable for your crime. how can a man that has 40-something arrests be walking the street? he should not be outside on the street at all if my son didn't intervene and help these ladies as they went and got him and all he did was going to get a description of this man, he was attacked. he could have killed my son or if my son did not hold him down,

until the authorities got there, that man probably could have hurt somebody else. >> steve: that's such a good point, lisa, you want the judge, you know, you want a judge or somebody in authority to throw the book at this guy if that's possible. >> yes, i do. >> steve: what do you want him to do? >> he needs to have the max. i want them to give him the max. let him give his seven years. he assaulted a new york city transit authority member. let him get the time he deserves. don't let him walk off with a year no because he is going to come out and do the same thing all over again. >> steve: robert, do you think that's going to happen? >> we are going to push and not let up until it does. our position is, first of all, we wants them to up the charges. and we also want them to up the bail. i mean, it's a shame. it's a crying shame, okay, to victimize mr. nelson again by giving this guy a $5,000 bail. that's only $500 partial. at the end of the day, the system has failed.

we're pleading with the system to see things the way it should be. and do the right thing. up his bail and also, let's give this guy the max. it's assault on mta employee. you know, at the end of the day, it's the seven -- up to seven years. give him the maximum and put a stop to all of this. it's ongoing. it's got to stop today. today. >> steve: lisa, final quick question you as the mother and new york resident, do you feel safe in new york? should the average person on the streets of new york feel safe today? >> no, they should not. >> steve: you know what? i agree with you. >> the streets are not safe no more. >> steve: no, is he thimplely are not. that's sad you wonder what caused it. is there a connection on that and soft on crime policies? sure looks like it. lisa, thank you very much for joining us. please tell your son we wish him a speedy recovery and hopes he gets back to normal and back to work as soon as he can. >> thank you.

now. go on website, things are not up to date. they haven't given us the latest information. people have been complaining about mask mandates and now they are restructuring. what's your reaction to this? >> public is are hungry for apology and humility. is this a communication stunt or is this authentic? i don't think this is a moment of self-reflection at the centers for disease control, the gao report is coming out next wednesday and they are probably trying to get ahold of it. the cdc can restructure all it wants but the leaders have just made a lot of bad decisions and they continue to make them. they are actively blocking blocg dzhokhar very much playing in the u.s. open even though he had covid and natural immunity. he still can't come in the country that's because of the cdc. they ignoring natural immunity. the military just fired 60,000

soldiers a few weeks ago. the centers for disease control is still pushing boosters for every 6-year-old in the united states. they just pushed boosters in babies and toddlers. if they want to make some real change, they need to show it in their policy. and the person they are bringing in to lead this transition, ainsley, is an old career government bureaucrat. a former clinton appointee. that's not exactly the person we want right now. >> ainsley: it's more of i will believe it when i see it. we will see what the future looks like? >> yeah. exactly. and, look, if they want to really do something, have a smaller agency so it's more nimble. set some term limits. get some new leadership in there and invest in local public health agencies. if you look at what happened with covid, we had basically 21,000 employees at the centers for disease control unable to answer the most basic questions and then an engineering graduate student at my institution, johns hopkins comes up with a website to track covid and that ends up being the website used by the

laced with fentanyl. it used to be that we could say with certain drugs there was a risk of addiction or would hurt your health. the mortality was low. now there is no drug that's safe. this is one of the trends out there that we are following. >> ainsley: when you look at that what do you see? it looks like rock candy. it definitely looks more appealing than a drug or just a regular pill. >> exactly. and that's the idea that maybe they are doing this because there is a huge market to young people where risk is appealing. so when you talk about the risk of dying. that may make it more attractive. so, when you add to the idea that there could be flavors or colors, then sometimes that's adding to the appeal. >> ainsley: pretty scary. dr. makary, thank you so much for coming on. >> thanks so much. >> ainsley: you are welcome. hand it over to carley. >> carley: good morning, ainsley. the man accused of stabbing rushdie praised the ayatollah of iran in a jailhouse interview with the "new york post." alleged assailant matar says he

turbulence. >> turbulence i have an example of a plane. change of wind speed and wind flow over a surface. traveling on a plane, your plane likes calm air. this is you. that goes todd in the passenger seat. and what will end up happening is you will get either a gust of wind from the bottom of the plane or on the side of the plane and all your plane is trying to do during purdue lens is trying to find an equilibrium in that. >> todd: it purr me principle that's how a plane takes off and lands. one of the questions we all wonder when we fly if the turbulence is really, really, really bad am i safe? you interviewed a man named ryan petit about that very question and this is what he had to say. >> the airplane is designed to withstand much more than you are experiencing on that flight. the airplane itself is going to make it through it's still uncomfortable at the end of the day. it's concerning and fatiguing. >> todd: good news the plane won't fall apart even though it

feels like it will. is there anything we can do as passengers when we are booking a flight or the pilots to avoid turbulence? >> important to note here that turbulence has never ever crashed a plane. i want to be clear. i know it can be incredibly scary because you can't see what's going on in the cockpit. on top of that, you don't know how long the turbulence is going to last. we did speak with a psychologist. one of the things he had said was think about someone who is peaceful to you. think about a place you can go to calm your nerves, right? take a breath. he did also give us some other suggestion as well. todd you have got to watch the documentary. i can't give you everything here. >> todd: what's your biggest take a&e way from this documentary? >> most people would be very surprised to hear because i travel a lot both for my job and personally, that at one point in time, i was deathly afraid of turbulence. not only would my hands start shaking, i would start sweating. i would get that little pit in my stomach. one of the things i was very surprised to learn about is when you look outside of the plane and you see the wings moving and

the engine moving, it's designed to do that. and so if the plane was like this and no movement there. the wings as well as the engine would eventually break off. i know it's scary at times and i know a lot of people think oh no, the plane is going to crash, i guarantee you planes are not going to crash if they encounter turbulence. a lot of times your pilot knows how long it's going to last. that's the reason why you will hear the words flight attendants please be seated. >> todd: jason frazier we both started out our careers in connecticut now in the center square at "fox & friends." great stuff. catch up, fasten your seat belts the truth behind turbulence tonight at 10:00 p.m. on fox weather. to review that is not an actual plane. >> no it's just an example. >> todd: other information you will get tonight on the documentary. thanks. if you are looking to buy something from kanye west new collection and who amongst us isn't? it might take more than five

>> ainsley: we just want jimmie allen. >> todd: i want nellie. i want nellie to have good barbecue. my dream. >> steve: great. >> ainsley: maybe a surprise appearance. we will see. you have to stay tuned for that that's tomorrow. if you are in our new york area go on and sign up. we would love to meet you. >> steve: this is our first year we have had the all-american summer concert series after the pandemic break. i want to thank everybody who has come and thank the crew here at fox for putting on the show and all the featured entertainers, it's been a great year. >> todd: thanks to the barbecue people that stuff is good. each week a different dish. a couple weeks ago that was lamb. best lamb i have ever had. who eats lamb on friday morning at 8:00. we do. it was amazing. >> steve: it was amazing. thanks to the guys at master built. they will be here tomorrow. >> ainsley: the cdc is finally admitting they need a reset. >> steve: you think? >> ainsley: if you go on the website some of the data old

data. hard to find. they want to speed up the data releases. also saying they are moving internal staff around. restructuring the communications office and going to revamp the website so it's easier to find reports. >> steve: yeah. because, they blew it. and now, you know, what we have seen in the sweep of the last couple of years, it wasn't just the doctors figuring stuff out. you know, with the white house, during joe biden's white house, how many times did they talk to the department of education who was talking to the school -- the teacher's unions and saying well, this is what we need. next thing you know it becomes part of public policy. when it comes to public health policy, you want to hear from doctors and people who know stuff. but, instead, it all got political. and, we have known that for two and a half years now. >> todd: here is the admission from rochelle walensky telling and the big question now is what happens next? for 75 years cdc and public health have been preparing for covid-19 and in our big moment, our performance did not reliably meet expectations. my goal is a number public

health ax and culture. collaboratability. she went on to say the cdc wasn't focused on public health and wasn't focused on disease. what the heck were they focused on. we know they shouldn't have been focused on. that was they were focused on random studies that quite frankly can be done in universities. we need you as the cdc to be focused on preventing disease and once we have a disease telling us what we do about it. it is shocking that they deviated so far from that mission. >> ainsley: the question is this a communications stunt? will we really see changes or are they just doing this to make the people who are complaining, the critics happier? because we are seeing djokovic who can't come here to play the u.s. open because foreigners can't come through our country unless they are vaccinated. meanwhile on our southern border they are not asking for vax cards when we see the images of people crossing the border and going through the gates. >> steve: to your point, is this just a stunt? and keep in mind the cdc is

taking a lot of heat right now, not over covid but over monkeypox. how were we not prepared for that? so if they were really going to, you know, left the reset button, are they going to keep dr. walensky and why would they keep dr. fauci. i know he is in a different department but all part of the same public health structure. we know for sure because i know our white house correspondent asked jen psaki last year was there any scenario where the president would consider firing dr. fauci because we have seen how political it all got, and she said no. so, fauci not going. will she go? or are they just going to say, you know what? we blew it but don't worry, we are going to reset it. reset? >> ainsley: we talked to dr. marty makary earlier on the show here is his reaction. >> the public is hungry for an apology and some humility. but the question is, is this

really a communications stunt or is this authentic? i don't think this is a moment of self-reflection at the cdc. the gao report is coming out next wednesday and they are probably trying to get ahold of it. the cdc is still pushing boosters for every 6-year-old in the united states. they just pushed boosters in babies and toddlers. if they want to make some real change, they need to show it in their policy. and the person they are bringing in to lead this transition, ainsley, is an old career government bureaucrat, a former clinton appointee. that's not exactly the person we want right now. >> ainsley: yeah, they hired this individual that worked with the clintons to come in and help with the reset. but he brings up a good point. is this a communications stunt? is this just to make us all happy and think that they are doing stuff behind the scenes? it will -- we will have to look at their policies. are kids going to have to be masked up when they go to school this jeer? some are already saying that they will. will they allow people like djokovic to come in and play

tennis when you have got the southern border, people are flowing in. millions, 2 million this fiscal year. did we ask for a vaccine card for any of them? so many people lost their jobs because they wanted to work but they didn't want to get vaccinated and the cdc said that you have to. and so many of these federal workers couldn't get a paycheck. >> todd: dr. marty's final point there is the administrative state in d.c. going to be willing to release stranglehold over the cdc. the appointment of that individual as dr. marty described them doesn't seem like it's going to be the case. business as usual despite as you said this communications outreach that they are trying. >> steve: why are they doing this communications outreach right now? would it possibly? >> ainsley: midterms. >> steve: absolutely. >> ainsley: everything goes back to the midterms. >> steve: less than 90 days away from it. obviously out on the campaign trail some people at town halls are saying why did you guys blow it so badly on covid and stuff like that? and now they have got an answer. well, there were misstakes.

mistakes were made. but we have reset it. joe biden's administration made the mistake but joe biden's administration is going to save us all. so that's the new midterm thinking, you would think going forward along with it's not inflation. you know. we're not in a recession. all that stuff is just spin for the midterms. >> todd: also raids. random raids in the middle of august. >> steve: i don't think it was so random. >> todd: okay, all right. >> steve: do you think it was random? >> todd: random in the sense why that timing. three weeks, three months before the midterms. >> ainsley: that used to be the number one issue. if you talk to voters, covid was the number one issue. now it seems to be inflation and right below that is crime. and there was a suspect, he is actually a registered sex offender, and we have -- we have obtained 14 mug shots of this guy. he went up behind some man in the bronx at a restaurant outside of at restaurant and just punched him in the head, knocked the guy down to the

ground. >> steve: look at that. >> ainsley: gosh. he has a fractured skull now as a result. >> steve: yeah, the guy -- the a assailant sucker punched that guy who he did not know at the bronx friday night. the patron it suffered a fractured skull and brain bleed and assailant was arrested. 55-year-old has been charged with attempted murder. apparently they did not know each other. there's the parade of his mug shots. the news about the guy who was hurt, he is in critical but stable condition. and when it comes to this guy, turns out he is a first degree -- he was convicted of first degree sex assault in 1995. he is a level 3 sex offender after he abused a 17-year-old girl in 19 # 4. but, any time you have that many mug shots, that means you were arrested at least 14 times. and here's another one of these

guys who is just out on the street and for no apparent reason just comes up behind somebody and that guy who he hurt is lucky to be alive. >> todd: these are the people that the left insist can be rehabilitated. maybe not the first time. maybe not for the second time maybe after the 14th time. news flash, they cannot be rehabilitated. he is a bad guy. bad guys need to be behind bars. so they don't end up doing that to the rest of us or some guy working in the new york city transit department who is just trying to go to work every day so that new yorkers can go to and fro their daily business. you interviewed the parents of one of the individuals that i am speaking of. one of these transit workers who is basically attacked by another lunatic out on the streets of new york city. here's what they have to say. >> arrested 41, 42 times. >> todd: take a listen. >> i think that that's speaks to the volume how the system has let us down. you know, the bail reform has to, at the very least, be

tweaked. this guy should not have been out of jail at all. after the first time, he shouldn't have been out of jail. so, here this is 40 assaults later. my mr. nelson is laid up with two surgeries. i mean, this is a travesty. >> you do a crime in the street, you should be accountable for your crime. you know, how could a man that has 40-something arrests be walking the street? i want him to get the max. give him 40 years. he assaulted a new york city transit authority member. don't let him walk off for a year. no. he is going to come out and do the same thing all over again. >> steve: that's the mother. you know, she wants the judicial system to throw the book at this guy who was arrested 41 times. there he is right there. alexander wright, accused of attacking this hero subway worker by the name of anthony nelson. anthony nelson apparently some people who were taking the subway said hey, sir, there is a

guy outside groping women and harassing them and so he, the hero subway worker, went to try to stop him. and this guy just knocked the soup out of him. and there he is in the hospital. we did have a little breaking news from his mother, lisa. thank goodness he is out of the hospital. >> ainsley: the guy broke his nose and broke his collar bone. he was surrounded by family and other subway workers. weighs hailed a hero because of the pandemic and how he continued to work by the new york knicks, the basketball team. they hailed him a hero at madison square garden. and his boss said he was a model employee. the good news is he is home. he is going to be okay. his mom says he is in a lot of pain. >> todd: real heroes of our city go to and from work. >> ainsley: and go and help people. >> todd: you have these individuals getting beaten up. you have tourists and the rest of us that live in the city that have to always be looking behind our backs following the de blasio administration and now the adams administration.

it's not just a problem here, l.a., filly, all throughout the country. to your point the way we started this talking point here, what are the administration -- what are they going to do with the midterms when it comes to crime? what magical possession are they going to sprinkle to make us forget about crime? with stories like this you can't forget about it. it's serious. >> steve: we asked the mother lisa if she feels safe in new york city she said absolutely not. nobody should. but this particular guy who has been arrested 41 times, a couple of times, apparently, he was taken to bellevue hospital for a psych evaluation. we don't know what happened during that but they ultimately let him out. so if he is mentally disturbed, you don't immediately just put him back on the street. you address the issues. what are this guy is suffering from. >> ainsley: we have interviewed some of the family members of some of these suspects, and they have said the problem is they will go to bellevue and they will get their medication but then they stop taking it after a few days. when they get back out on the street. >> todd: nobody enforcing.

♪ >> todd: today the judge who approved the fbi raid on mar-a-lago, a trump critic, no less, will hear arguments on whether to unseal the affidavit to led to the search. fox news contributor lara trump is here with what to expect. great to see you as always. look, trump wants it, the media wants it, the nation needs it to fill in the gaps left by so many leaks from so many different sources. the big question is will the judge do it? >> well, gosh, i wish i could answer that question for you, todd. i sure hope so. because, i think many americans have lost a lot of faith in our country and their view of america since last monday really has changed in a very profound way after this raid on mar-a-lago it seems totally outside of protocols to conduct

a raid of this variety on any american's house given the circumstances let alone the former president of the united states, especially by the doj of president who might be in an opponent of the former president and the next presidential election. there are so many messy factors here. and then by the a.g., merrick garland's own admission. the fbi is supposed to use the least intrusive methods possible, and, yet, you had this raid here. it makes no sense. there was full cooperation with my father-in-law's attorneys, his entire team, the fbi, the national archives, leading up to this things were going totally fine and then all of the sudden you have this raid on mar-a-lago. why was it conducted? this way? why was it necessary to go through melania's closet? why weren't any lawyers allowed on the property while this was happening? there are so many questions and i think to release this affidavit would at least put

some transparency in the hands of the american people because we need to have faith in our justice system. we need to have faith in our fbi. and, unfortunately, it has really been lacking for a lot of americans since last monday. >> todd: it begs the question and i'm sure people are wondering, will this show that this wasn't the least restrictive, least intrusive method possible to get the information they want. judge could be scared that's going to come out. doj also scared. meantime got to get your thoughts on this. liz cheney after getting absolutely blown out there in her home state "primetime" marry thing this on "the today show" about future white house plans. listen. >> are you thinking about running for president? >> it is something that i am thinking about and i will make a decision in the coming months. i will be doing whatever it takes to keep donald trump out of the oval office. >> todd: to review, cheney lost her primary as an incumbent by 40 points. that's unheard of. why does she think not only the people of wyoming but the people of the entire country want her

back in d.c. to keep up her trump vendetta? >> gosh, well, as we say where i come from in north carolina, bless her heart. she had a bit of a rough day on tuesday. but, it was her own doing that led to this. and it's a great question, todd, why would she think that any american wants to elect her? she has proven that if she is sent to washington, d.c., she will only pursue a personal vendetta against donald trump. she will not be doing work to help, i don't know, the rampant inflation in our country, bring down gas prices, close our open southern border, things that americans would want her to focus on, things that wyoming would want her to focus on. look, no way she is going to win if she runs for president. she is allowed to give it a shot in america we will see. >> todd: always love in lara trump is on our air. see you tomorrow morning. >> you got it. >> ainsley: thanks, todd, rapper

kanye west defending his easy gap clothing line being sold to commerce in trash bags. >> steve: why are they doing that? eric shawn is live here easy gpa in new york's time square to share his exclusive interview with the rapper. eric, how do you know kanye west? [laughter] >> we go way back kanye and i for years steve. actually it was really enlightening experience this morning. early this morning we are here at the times square gap store where kanye west did address ine big bags. kanye as you may know goes by the name of ye and although he has been widely criticized about this he does say that his message is being misrepresented and misunderstood. ye has come under fire on social media and elsewhere over selling the clothes in what people thought were garbage bags. but he says his goal is to dry and make dressing easier and it's just the opposite.

people have thought that he has been making fun and mocking homeless people and those less fortunate but he says that is not at all his goal and his message that he is just trying to challenge conventional way we trust throating more egal tarren and not as pretentious. >> do you understand some people have felt putting clothes in bags isn't sensitive, perhaps, to homeless and other people? >> look, man, i'm an innovator and i'm not here to sit up and apologize about my ideas. that's exactly what the media tries to do. make us apologize for any idea that doesn't fall under exactly the way they want us to think. he told me that we should not clown the creators in his words, the innovators because that will make innovators and other designers and people who design and invent things less brave. he also points out that these

are not garbage bags. as has been reported but large construction bags. the reach he put the clothes in there, they are folded, is to make people be able to just informally reach in and help themselves to what they want to buy. he says his goal is to make life easier and informal so that we can all, basically, dress in the dark. >> this is not a joke. this is not a game. this is not some celebrity collaboration. this is my life. i'm fighting for a position to be able to change clothing and bring the best design to the people. as you may know. is he deeply religious christian. he says he felt that it was god's plan to put him here together with me for this exclusive interview to tell our fox viewers what he sees as the truth regarding what he is doing here with his clothing. i'm told that by the way that his easiy gap line has sold out immediately across the country so certainly the publicity

caused by this controversy where people are saying on social media and elsewhere certainly probably help his sales. is he off to london now to keep on designing. he has no apologies to make at all and says he is trying to help people, the less fortunate across the country by making it easier to dress and maybe should be in one of these t-shirts as opposed to a suit. and button down shirt. >> ainsley: wearing a hoodie. >> he has got hoodies and joggers, t-shirts. the stuff is all folded. you know, he has a point actually. i found him sensitive, much more different than i thought. really sensitive and thoughtful he definitely thinks out of the box. someone who is certainly an innovator, an amazing innovator and thinker for his generation. >> ainsley: did he talk about kim kardashian at all? >> say that again? >> ainsley: did he talk about kim kardashian? >> no. we didn't do that just stayed

with the clothing line. >> steve: absolutely. you were clarify. not garbage bags, they are construction bags. >> yep. that's what they're. >> ainsley: all right. >> steve: eric shawn hose coolness factor just went up by a factor of 70. eric, thank you very much. that's great. >> all right. steve. steve that's cool. >> ainsley: those clothes that's what we change after work. that's what we put on we put on comfortable clothes. >> steve: they just sold out so america loves it. all right. eric, excellent interview. thanks for joining us live from new york city. meanwhile, still ahead, a new report calls the fall of kabul in afghanistan the dark cloud looming over president biden's approval rating. joey jones on that coming up next. your mission: stand up to moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis or active psoriatic arthritis and... take. it. on. with rinvoq. rinvoq is a once-daily pill

ains ains fox news alert. 21 people. massive bob ripped through a mosque in kabul prayer time as afghanistan marks one year since joe biden's failed withdrawal. fox news contributor joey jones served in afghanistan as a marine bomb technician and he joins us now. good morning to you joey. >> joey: good morning. >> ainsley: one year after this withdrawal and it looks like this is a sanctuary for terrorism again after this bombing. >> joey: you can start to see how the taliban plans to rule their country as a governing party with this latest bombing they are at odds with isis. they are at odds with some factions of the taliban in tack stan. they just assassinated a prior taliban leader try to escape to iran because he had disagreements with the decisions they make. that's how they deal with political opposition within the taliban itself is to assassinate there is going to come a time when they will want legitimacy on the world stable and probably

among u.s. diplomats we have to be stalwarts. we can't work with a country that acts this way. >> ainsley: trey yingst was our reporter there and talking in the commercial break about seeing some of his reports there was a mom who has already lost three children. she was sitting next to the hospital bed of her little infant be and said this will be my fourth. they are malnourished and don't have the medical care that they need. the children and the women, the girls they can't drive, they can't go to school. no one can listen to music. and we saw the trucks driving through, trey said they are driving through all the streets with the taliban flags appearing. you lost your legs in afghanistan. you served our country to prevent all of this. how does this make you feel. >> it's not as difficult today as i maybe thought it was going to be because i expected this to be honest with you. even under president trump truly what i expected from president trump because president trump uses hyperbole, that's a tool in his toolbox. trump supporters and voters understand that and don't play gotcha with it. democrat obviously do and they

have that opportunity. when president trump says we are going to get all of the troops out of afghanistan. i interpreted that to mean we are going to quit our combat operations our war in afghanistan. as much as i disagree with lindsey graham i think he was pretty honest when he said he felt like there would be troops there forever and the mission and role might change. i think under president trump his administration saw a path forward that might include a coalition government in afghanistan to where you give the taliban enough to keep them passive. -- or pacified. at the end of the day, the taliban they are an effort within the country of afghanistan perhaps pakistan. isis a regional effort and al-qaeda is an international effort. each of these enemies have a different goal and i think a lot of americans misunderstand that our war in iraq and afghanistan two different enemies. with really two different goals. the goal an the taliban was to own afghanistan. perhaps the pose too many region. almost the closest thing to

afghanistan doesn't make it good or right and doesn't mean i don't want to kill every one of them because i do. i can a understand where president trump was going. the way president biden felt out of afghanistan to me felt like a politically bad decision no matter how bad it gets we will get to the midterms and by the time i run for re-election i won't care anymore. it unfortunately we watched what happened. we saw 13 get killed. we saw people fall off the airplane. we heard the stories. the worst thing that ever happened to president biden were the civilians and veterans left this country and went to afghanistan and worked to get people out because i can tell you i had a buddy go over there and do that he looked me in the eye and he said listen, i have have been places doing things where i knew the government wouldn't have my back. this was the first time i was somewhere doing the right thing and i felt like the government was working against me. the state department did not want those stories to come back here. they didn't want want truth to get out. they didn't want americans to know how bad it was how badly executed and planned it was. and unfortunately, that's exactly what we saw even to the point that we droned innocent civil yaps trying to seek

retribution for what happened in kabul rather than maybe preventing it to begin with. >> carley: >> ainsley: cloud over approval rating. approval rating in late summer of 221. 53% and most recently 43%.

country see the affidavit used justify that search. the department of justice opposes the release saying it would compromise its criminal investigation into trump, but his daughter-in-law says the country has the right to see it. watch. >> there are so many questions, and i think to release this affidavit would at least put some transparency in the hands of the american people, because we need to have faith in our justice system. we need to have faith in our fbi. unfortunately it has really been lacking for a lot of americans since last monday. >> now, if the affidavit is released, and it's a big "if," we can get a clear understanding of what the feds were searching for. "newsweek" is reporting, citing two high-level officials, "to justify the unprecedented raid on the residence, agents went into trump's residence on the pretext that they were seeking out government documents, but the true target was the private

stash that they said he might weaponize." meanwhile, in an op-ed in "the wall street journal," it suggests all of this could be playing to the former president's advantage. they say, "a perceived political persecution of could help him to a second term and he would even be more unrestrained as the 47th president then he was as the 45th." that article also suggesting a future trump-appointed attorney general could decide to raid the homes of biden, obama, and the clintons down the road. where does the stand? the hearing is set for 1:00 p.m. eastern in west palm beach, florida. former president trump has indicated through sources that he will not attend although he has publicly already called for the total unredacted release of this affidavit. whether or not this judge will rule one way or the other is a is abig question mark. they will say he'll wait a

while. but ultimately a lot of pressure building from the former president to the media wanting this release of the country can see why the home was searched. >> ainsley: let's bring in kentucky g.o.p. senator rand paul paid good morning, senator. thanks for coming on. we were all saying we would take a bet that they are not going to unseal the affidavit, because this is the same person that signs the okay to go into mar-a-lago. what do you think? >> i think the burden is on fbi. to investigate them for over two years. so i think the burden really is on the fbi. they've been wrong in the past, they've broken the law, and using these foreign intelligence warrants, now they use a domestic warrant, but i think

they need to release the justification for this because it's extraordinary. we shouldn't lose sight of the fact that this has never ever happened before, for good reason, because we need confidence in the fbi, that they are there to protect us and not to go after people for political purposes. that it's not a politically motivated witch hunt. >> steve: and we heard a bad actor sanity years ago regarding trump and russia and stuff like that, but those people or five years ago. i believe it was yesterday, mike pence he was up in new hampshire, he called on the attacks on the fbi to stop. he was reminding the new hampshire republican party that they are the party of law and order, and republicans stand with the men and women who serve at the federal and state level. and he said the attacks on the fbi must stop. >> but part of the democratic

republic we have is allowing dissent and having discussion over government behavior. for example, christopher wray came to my committee and asked him, is it appropriate, does it meet the constitutional standard to use a foreign intelligence warrant on a domestic politician such as trump? on an american? and i indicated to him that i think it's a lower standard because a fisa warrant only requires probable cause of a connection to a foreign country or foreign government, where as the fourth amendment of the constitution says probable cause of a crime. so i think if i was a warrant has a lower standard, and christopher wray's response to me -- and this is the current head of the fbi -- it's no big deal. he think it's fine to use foreign intelligence warrants on americans, and a lot of people think that's true. i don't, but this is part of the same people who are still running the fbi. they have a different understanding, maybe, of what they think the fbi can and cannot do and how it should be used on americans. but i'm going to require proof

that there was actually some sort of probable cause of a crime, and i'm suspicious that there was not. >> steve: they have oversight, but the problem is over the last week or so there has been so much violent rhetoric directed at the fbi, and i heard somebody printed that it stands for "fascist bureau of investigation" or something like that. unfortunately now the people who work at the fbi headquarters, there are death threats and all sorts of stuff. i heard from a staff member there, who was talking to a colleague at the fbi, a colleague realized, "oh, look, i'm wearing the wrong shoes today to work," because if somebody attacks the building and they've got to run, can't run in those heels. so they caught in the cross hairs. >> i think the death threats are inappropriate and not the way to

go around it. there's the political process. the problem is that the people in charge of congress, the democrats, have not been interested in or curious in investigating anything. we have a million people who died from covid, and i haven't had one hearing on the origin. we finally did a couple weeks ago. i insisted on hearing, and the democrats didn't come to my hearing. the thing is there's been a lack of curiosity on the part of investigation, but there's no excuse for threats to the fbi, and the thing is, look, and they're not the only one getting threats. i've had probably over 50 threats this year. sometimes i can have a dozen in a week. we have my address posted online, we have people who are wishing me ill will, injury, all the time. so all the threads are wrung from the right or the left. >> todd: meantime, a big shake up at the cdc, or at least that's what they say is going to happen. here is cdc director rochelle walensky. "cdc and public health have been preparing for covid-19 and then our big moment, our performance,

did not reliably meet expectations. my goal is a new public health action-oriented culture at the cdc that emphasizes accountability, collaboration, communication, and timeliness." sounds great. are you confident it will happen, senator? >> [laughs] well, they say part of the road to recovery is admitting you have a problem, so i guess they've now admitted they have a problem. like so many things at the cdc, the left has misdiagnose the problem and they are going to misapply the solution. it's not that they acted too sparingly. the problem is they acted too quickly and not based on science. it wasn't that they were waiting around for science, they were reacting every week with an edict that contradicted the previous week's edict. they also commissioned studies that completely dismissed the idea that you've got immunity from covid after having had it. so how can you do a study of whether a vaccine or a booster works if an arm of the study is

not people who have actually already had the disease? if you discount having the disease, most of the studies are worthless. so i would suggest, if they want to reorganize, is humility. i think they need to step back and get into the advice game, not the mandate game. with masks they should have said the evidence is inconclusive and for the most part masks don't work. if you are at high risk or situation we have to take care of a family member, you might want to wear a mask, but there is no scientific evidence of any randomized controlled study that masks actually reduce the incidence of the public sphere of the transmission of the disease, and then you make your own decision. instead, they became so obsessed and thought they knew the truth, they were so adamant that they knew the truth that they were going to tell everybody what to do and what to wear, and that was a mistake, a lack of humility. if the organization says that we are going to be humble, trying to look for the signs and when it's equivocal give advice, not mandates, that's what i would suggest to them. >> ainsley: senator, let's go

down to the southern border, because fox news, we have a reporter down there who -- bill melugin -- who witnessed the national guard of texas, under the direction of abbott, to lock the gate on the border of this private property in his major crossing area in eagle pass to deny entry. but you can see here what happened next. we witnessed the border patrol agents come along with a key, they open up the gates of these illegals standing outside at the gate could come through, and then had to processing. all the texas national guard standing there watching this happen. we are also learning that republicans are questioning whether or not the biden administration has contacted amtrak and if they will use federal funds to transport some of these illegals throughout our country using amtrak trains. what do you know? >> i think it ironic that we won't let the world's greatest tennis player in because he's not vaccinated, djokovich.

but i think we should change the law. anyone caught in the act of coming in, they can immediately be placed back on the of the side. no process, nothing. if you are caught not doing normal port of entry, you should go back to the other side of the river immediately. but we'd have to change the law. the democrats love illegal immigration and so they have not been willing to. but there is a compromise to be had. i would say that everyone should be deposited on the other side of the river, but as a compromise we should increase lawful immigration and put more resources to allow more people to come and apply in a normal fashion at the port of entry. but i would have zero tolerance, and once you did that for about six months -- while i was not opposed to the wall, i think you could do it with helicopters and with maybe 50 stations along the border, and you could have it done in a month. zero tolerance, everybody goes back. but right now the law is if you set foot over here you are allowed to have some sort of

process and it never really comes to fruition and you are sent to another part of the country, then you here to stay. it's a terrible process now. >> steve: are the people of kentucky delighted that, according to the administration, inflation is at zero? because that's what they've been saying because there was no month over month increase. we are just stuck right now at 8.5%. people of kentucky don't know it's not zero. >> i think when they hear that from biden's lips, they wondered. they're still going to the gas pump and paying $4 per gallon or more. they're still going to the grocery store and paying 30-40% more for eggs, meat, et cetera. people are driving, people who are good hardworking people in kentucky and struggling and they quit going on vacation and

everybody brings the price down. the cost of inflation is dead and they are still getting an extraordinary amount of money that's not been spent yet. city governments have it, county governments have it, and state governments. i would estimate half of the money they printed up, that the federal reserve loaned it to the government, half of it is still sitting in the coffers of government and hasn't been spent. when it spent, there's going to be more inflation, not less. >> todd: senator rand paul, thank you very much. have a great day, sir. with that, let's send it over to carley shimkus. >> carley: good morning to you all. headlines here, with an intense police chase caught on camera. police video capturing the moment a carjacking suspect collides head-on with an officer's vehicle. authorities say the suspect stole the car from a woman at gunpoint. after an exchange of gunfire, the suspect led police on an hour-long chase before slamming head-on with officer's vehicle. he was arrested and they say the

white house run following her crushing defeat to her trump-backed challenger in tuesday's primary race in wyoming. speaking of the white house, president biden reportedly giving liz cheney a call after those comments as the left-wing media seems to think she might have a chance, or actually run. fox news contributor lisa boothe is with us right now. lisa, what do you think about liz cheney running for president in 2024? it seems early. >> i have two thoughts first, bless their hearts, because you have two people, liz cheney who just lost a primary by almost 40 points, then you have joe biden who is in the toilet in terms of his approval ratings right now. so you have two people who are by no means viable candidates for 2024 having a conversation about it. so bless their hearts. it's adorable. >> steve: given the fact that she lost in such a gigantic landslidey way, eve got to figure, if she's talking about running for president, i don't know that she think she could

win, but maybe -- and this is just a theory -- maybe she's thinking, "if i ran in the republican primary and i got enough people to support me in the polls, i would wind up on the debate stage if donald trump where to go ahead and run for president and then during a debate," which we would of course televise, as everybody would, "i can remind people what donald trump did," as she has with the january 6th committee. >> and you saw how that worked out in wyoming. i don't think it would work out for her. liz cheney is really upset about the fact that the republican party has been transformed by donald trump. it's no longer the party of the bushes, it's no longer the party of mitt romney or the party of cheney. a new party has emerged, and the reason why republican primary voters rejected her is not because she didn't want to question the 2020 election, because she is trying to criminalize the questioning of the 2020 election. she's trying to criminalize

free speech, which is anti-american. that's ultimately what she's trying to do, weaponize government against a political opponent, someone she has a personal animus against. that's why she was rejected. >> steve: and it's a stunning fall from the top of the g.o.p. leadership. number one is kevin mccarthy, she was number three for a while. she suggested that kevin mccarthy needed to essentially respect the constitution more, and then he reacted when asked for a response, and an aide pointed to comments made by her father, dick cheney, when he is campaigning in 1976. he said at the time that principle is okay up to a certain point. >> i didn't do this, but says this is the only regime change. but i think we are ultimately saying is much like we saw in the 2010 election with the tea party. the populist uprising. there are more headwinds working against people in terms of

censorship, and against its citizens in a way we didn't see heading into 2010, but you have people who are sick and tired of their government. they want the government serving answers, not one they have to fear. we have found ourselves in a place where, if you are a trump supporter or a conservative, you have to fear the government being weaponized against you. spew when you're not sick and tired of studio m, are you? >> i live in miami now, i miss you guys! >> steve: and talking about that you're going to be here! >> for "outnumbered," yes! and "the final exam" for tucker. i haven't been in the studio so long, what i do with my hands? i'll be on "outnumbered" and i'll be on tucker tonight. >> steve: and back to? >> on sunday. i'm also doing the big show this weekend, and with harris faulkner tomorrow. >> steve: what do you do with your hands? >> towards the end i started.

>> i haven't really thought about it that much, but it's a blessing for the first amendment, and pastors across the country. i think we need to realize that we have this freedom that god has given us, in the country, we are needed more today than ever with hope, truth, love, and that christ has come to set us free entry to captives. we have been held captive more than most of the country. >> ainsley: why did the court of appeals dropped these charges? >> well, they dropped the charges because, as many of you know, the supreme court has been they clear over the last year that these orders violated the first amendment. this is a religious freedom case, and they have violated the first amendment because of religion. the county as well as the state of california allowed a lot of essential businesses or

businesses that they deemed essential to stay open, but not this church. that's why the appeals court ultimately overturned the fines. >> ainsley: pastor, the legal battles are not over yet. the county is trying to enforce a $2.8 million fine. what do you expect? >> well, if it's tail time, i'm ready for whatever. honestly, i'm not willing to fight the county. i think they just don't understand the constitution. in the bible says, we should render things in the constitution. those are in office and they should respect the constitution just like we are. we love the county, and everyone in this country, it's like, we are better, more united than being separated. so i honestly haven't thought about it. >> ainsley: maria, we have

such a political divide and we need to charge more than ever and we need god. he wanted to have a church service and he's being signed all of this money. thankfully a lot of it was dropped. but not all of it. it started three years ago, everything is so different now, and he just wanted to have church. there are so many other issues that are really ailing and hurting california right now and they are focused on this? >> yes, i think this case is about pride at this point. even the federal judge in our case has urged the parties to settle in the county. this is a case about pride. they know their orders were unconstitutional. the supreme court has specifically admonished santa clara county. the reality is they just want to make a statement of pastor mike, because he defied the order, didn't cave-in. this county has levied more fines against businesses and entities than any other county.

a lot of businesses had to pay those fines, so there's going to be political ramifications when pastor mike does not have to pay these finds. >> ainsley: pastor, why was it so important to you to continue to have church? >> you know, and our country we have lost the focus of what we are founded on. you look at what's going on in the world today, the church has always been included, especially in our county and this country. we need a great awakening. hope comes from christ, he's the one who died for us. the governor and the county didn't die for us. when you look at the reality of what christ has done in people's lives and can do again in this generation, we need a great awakening. whatever comes from the county, i don't care about that. what i care about is the gospel, the good news of jesus christ, that the answer to all the things going on. and it's like they are wanting to mute that so you look at the past countries in the world, where they stop religion first

before the government comes in and take over, that's really what's going on. this is a repeat history and we are not ready for it, i don't think. but we need to get the gospel out. we need to get the truth out to hurting and dying people. lucian's hundreds of people who have come to christ in their lives are completely transformed. i wouldn't be alive today if this church wouldn't open, and god is alive and well. he has hope for america if we look to him, if we called to him. he will answer and he will revive us. that's what makes america great. it's been the foundation of the word of god and of jesus christ. he is our savior, if the nation will turn back to him. you're going to see him begin to bless us again. >> ainsley: amen. you've made your life's mission to tell others about christ because you care about their salvation and what is yet to come in the next life, so god bless you. everyone who is watching, please say a prayer for this church that all the fines will be dropped. thanks for being on with us. >> thank you.

years? >> [laughs] todd, the word of god has been thoroughly vetted, yes, and studied on sundays. it may be forever more. here's the thing, todd -- the default and school districts across america is all boys aren't blue, and the other is "gender queer." those are in and the holy bible is out of the library. the supreme court stops bible reading, it's out of public school libraries, and "gender queer" is in, which shows sexually explicit drawings of man-boy love. so that in libraries. here in texas at least it's being contested. i think the school district's signaling they will allow the bible back in as just a reference book in the library. imagine that, a reference book you can pull out and read as a kid. certainly not going to be taught in the classroom. but this policy was put in place because of the absolute tsunami

of gender theory, queer theory, critical race theory that's entered into libraries in elementary, middle school, and high school. i like the fact that policies are in place so parents can challenge it. they can say, "this doesn't belong in a kindergarten, the school should review it." but progressives and leftists sees that it opportunity to come out let's get rid of anne frank's diary, let's get rid of the holy bible. you have to be vigilant about the application of it, defend the word of god that it should be allowed to be checked out as a book in the library, and say it's inappropriate that "gender queer" another explicit left-wing books be included, as well. of course they try to throw the bible in, as well. >> todd: interesting. we'll be paying attention to it. meanwhile, the 9/11 tribute museum in new york city closes its doors permanently after being unable to rebound from pandemic losses. we like to say "never forget," but as the days progress, are we

policies that locked us out for two years and lead to less attendance and the shutting down of this organization. i guess most of the artifacts they have there -- not to use "artifacts," but a lot of the things they have will be moved to another new york museum, still be somewhere else, but not quite the same as lower manhattan. >> todd: we certainly hope that we never forget, we will always thank you for defending the country. let's go over to carley shimkus with a look at our headlines. >> carley: that's right, a fox news alert, weekly jobless claims just released with 250,000 americans filing for an employment last week. that number edging a little lower than the $265,000 economists expected, and down from the 262,000 dollars file delete before. the los angeles county foreigner ruling anne heche's death an accident. she was driving near the 90
