>> education, that's a big thing and we are throwing money everywhere else. >> prices and gas and food, export, import. >> equal opportunity housing, affordable rent. >> all the crime, drugs coming in to the country. a major issue in the current administration blows over it. >> used to be a democrat all my life. now i changed over to be republican. >> the emphasis everybody has on we should be happy and get what we want is crazy so the legislation is so biased toward people who complain about stuff and think they deserve something when really it's the whole country that needs something and it's ridiculous a few special interest groups can come make a fuss. >> i'm looking for expanded

healthcare access for everybody. >> allowing a generation of people to have disposable income that allows them to live and get back to the economy. >> roe v. wade and women's rights and no offense, i love a lot of men but women have a different game in life. >> thousands of issues out the there, get legislation written in normal people, 90% of the people in the country don't agree with it. >> let's put practical sense back into the voting. i hope republicans can win the seat. >> drug test every politician when they fill out they are going to run for office. >> i'm down for drug testing politicians. fox news contributor joe concha and richard fowler, thank you for joining the program joe, it seems like the country is more divided, there's a new poll saying 44% of adults pulled saying the civil war is the least likely in the next decade,

are you surprised? >> 40%, that's unthinkable in 2022 but when you have the rhetoric the president biden used thursday calling 74 million of fellow americans nazis and the biggest threat to this country, maybe there's a reason people are feeling this way. most of the people i see, they are good and kind and polite to each other and i look back to this one gallup poll this telling, 84% of americans agree the media is to blame for political vision in this country so perhaps that's what's stoking it but four out of ten people thinking we could have another civil war in this country, that is disturbing. >> civil war, is that a bit much? [laughter] >> i think joe is right it's a bit much and the media are to blame. let's think about the last civil war, we weren't fighting about

who would be in the white house for whether or not the united states kat, we were having a conversation, the issue was whether or not we would free millions who were enslaved so we were having a different conversation today so i think we as a country are divided, no question but 40% of americans to believe you're going to go to civil war, i think that's hyperbole. >> i would agree with you until i heard this from the white house press secretary, i thought we were having a legitimate conversation but then she said this -- >> you are not with majority of americans than that is extreme. >> so when you're not with the majority of the country, then you are extreme. >> or perhaps you just disagree with something and therefore you could have a debate about, right? there are plenty of disagreements is to have our leaders come to the table before

you were born, the president called bottom raegan would sit down with his counterpart was a leader of his party they compromised and get things done and didn't call to their names. i also honestly think social media plays a big role between our political parties because they are just some folks who aren't getting anything done from a legislative perspective but one on twitter and say things about their opponents, looking at you eric swalwell or aoc or taylor green in florida. enough with playing on twitter and perhaps get things done by compromising. i know it's a foreign concept but i'm tired of the name-calling and people acting

like it's midnight sophomore year with too much to drink. >> i've known you for a long time, i know you don't believe for agree with the press secretary on this. >> i think a couple things, i listened to the present speech and i think the president made a couple of things important here, a clear delineation, he said this, if you are somebody other watching those patriotic to invade the capitol and you are extreme. >> richard, i got to bring you back. when the white house press secretary is the voice of the president either on the podium says if you are not in the majority, you don't agree, you are extreme. do you believe that is true? >> you have to look at the sentence before or after that to put into context. what she was talking about, what i assume is the president's remarks he made at independence hall in the president's remarks, he made the delineation of who he was talking about when he

said his extreme model and whether you agree with his remarks or not it's important to talk about the definition he defined to those people and put it in context. if you think somebody who invaded the capitol is patriotic or believes the election was stolen with no evidence is patriotic than -- >> i love you but that's not what she said from the podium and i think that's why we can't come together to have a conversation. the first sentences she gave, she didn't say that, she was dividing the country and its that the administration said it would bring us together, cannot allow civil debate. anyway, i've got to go. see you all later. joining me now, there he is fearless, tommi layering is here. i know you have thoughts and with the president said. this is sad, he only one because of one issue when you look at every issue whether it was economy, energy, american people

didn't agree, they just want the temperature to come down a little bit. he's not doing that. >> is not in the delineation, he didn't make delineation, he said maga republicans. he didn't say those who stormed the capitol, those fascist or hate in the hearts, those extremists on both sides which would be nice to hear him say, and to the, people who write it the entire summer. he didn't. he said maga republicans. a somebody who voted for trump twice and maybe again, somebody who is a moderate republican and probably wears the hat, i take offense to that. i didn't storm the capitol, i don't believe in it bit i'm a maga republicans because i believe in making america great again in the policies that donald trump ushered in. he offended half the country, more than half the country and if they thought was a good look for him, it backfired. >> what concerns me is some of the republicans who voted for donald trump in 2016 and 2020 voted for joe biden so speaking

to those people as well so you're not even trying to convince the other side, just showing all people who may have supported the president. >> those who thought they were voting for moderate or fooled. joe might have been moderate at one time, he's puppeteer by people were certainly not moderate, they are radical. look at the agenda, i'm not talking about characteristics like he does with maga republicans, i'm talking about the radical policies, medical spending. joe is not a moderate, he's not going to be a moderate, he's up puppeteer by people who want to see the country go in a truly extreme direction, it won't sit well. some liberals will surely what he did last night but i think a lot of people on the fence are saying make america great again, that sounds okay to me. >> buyer's remorse. the white house continues to reassure the american people president biden would run for a second term, more democrats are

looking for an alternative in 2024. gavin newsom is one of the politicians, positioning himself as a possible candidate. i went to your old city los angeles, the governor's own constituents, what they thought. >> should your governor gavin newsom be the next president? >> no way. >> why not? >> i do like and. >> should be the next president of united states? >> hell no. >> why not? >> he sucks. >> would you support him? you think he's doing a good job? >> about good a job he can't. it is the scariest thing i've ever heard. unbelievable americans could even think about newsom as president. >> is that a good idea? >> terrible idea. >> could you support him for being the next president? why not? >> i don't like what he's doing with california. >> would you support him?

>> not sure. i like him in some ways but not other ways. >> what has he done good and bad? >> the home was problem is a mess he hasn't dealt with, he's kept the state pretty much on track. >> would probably not support him going forward. >> how do you think he's doing for the state of california? >> our state and is in a bit of a downfall. i won't even take my kids to the city anymore. >> would you support him? >> not a chance. >> is he doing a good job? >> no, he's not. >> he is our mayor. >> governor. >> right, governor. i'm not good at politics. >> are you surprised with what you hear there? >> that pretty much sums up california. those that are paying attention don't like gavin newsom but a nice area of california, you

should have panned in l.a. because you would see plenty of tens, maybe needles, maybe human estimate, that shows what he's done for california. almost recall, he survived it, we know this but he's got nice hair, and eloquent speaker but look at the dumpster fire that is california. a dumpster fire in the united states right now, let that man take control. >> tommi, catch her show. on the other side, another rumor 2024 challenger emerged, francis suarez last him to the scene with success in the sunshine state. i had the chance to visit with him on what's going right in miami and predators central essential. ♪ >> you have these businesses and tech companies who want to come here, is it the weather or business climate? >> the weather doesn't hurt, it's beautiful that we follow three simple rules.

we keep taxes low, we keep people safe and need into innovation. the reason is we understand the world is changing and we want to create high-paying jobs and prosperity as much as possible. >> when you have a big company like citadel from chicago to miami, what did they tell you? what's the driving force behind something like this? >> i think it comes down to quality of life. you don't get to live your life twice. the most important decision you make is where you late raise your family. we have a city based on that possible. ♪ >> you have tech companies, you think of california, now people moving to austin but now miami? >> absolutely. the mayor of austin, offender many times but i don't think

anybody is in real like i can't wait to get on a plane to austin. miami is an international city and we care about making sure the innovators and doers and streamers of this country find a place like miami that believes in letting capitol and capitalism drive innovation. ♪ >> let's talk about crime because it's a major issue in the country but murder rate is going down. >> we are so blessed. if everything keeps going the way it is, will have the worst homicide rates since the 1930s with much higher population. we do that because we never did this defendant police nonsense. we have more police than ever and focus on technology, with focus on and implement, 1.4% unemployment rate. also the happiest city and healthiest city in america. if people are happy and healthy and working, they will not commit crime. >> many have said this guy set a

path all the way to the presidency and you would tell them what? >> what we are doing here in miami can and should be done in every american city. a recipe for success, doable and can be done, just requires political courage. >> you can provide a model for the country, would you ever consider running for presidency? >> is something growing up i never thought was possible. my parents came to this country at 12 and seven, first generation success story, to think of myself in the conversation is incredible but i'll tell you, it's something i have considered, i'm flattered by so much conversation about it. people are looking for somethi something, or someone to unite the country and inspire them so certainly something i'll be thinking about the next few months. ♪ >> definitely someone to watch. you've heard the reports,

welcome back to cross-country. the impact of the pandemic is even more clear. new report from just a part of education shows reading scores dropped more than in 30 years it decreased for the first time in a decade. this is thanks to the policy pushed by democrats and teachers union. joining us now, your post, this carol markowitz and editor of red state -- davis. thank you for joining me. we knew this was happening, now we have even more data to support this but it doesn't seem like democrats are taking the ale and responsibility. >> that is right. the pandemic didn't cause this, pandemic measures caused this, pushed by people like randi weingarten, head of the biggest teachers union in the country that gone with the cdc schools

closed and pushed policies the kat schools close and democratic politicians followed her off with so i think there needs to be accountability, we all know what happened, fiona the numbers, the new york times and washington post seemed surprised but i know nobody on this panel is surprised to right now we need to demand accountability and how people randi weingarten and anthony fauci exit the stage and never come back and they need to be held accountable for what they've done to america's children. >> so they are not exiting the stage, it's from the secretary of education cardona, today's data confirms significant impact, prior of administration mismanaged the pandemic has had on our children, progress and academic, well-being, that's why president biden from day one of his administration pushed so hard to get students back in class, we must repair damage done by donald trump's mismanagement of the pandemic and we know there were e-mails of them ordaining with the teachers union to keep the

classroom closed but then they got caught and sit the fbi on parents. it's a lie. >> it stunning, all a lie. even the timeline, the presidens not the president when we were keeping kids out of school. we already transitioned to biden while that was happening. these are the people who want teaching our kids, they are literally trying to change history in front of our eyes and tell us we didn't see what we thought was, it's going to backfire like it did the last two years. they told us we were the grainy killers, we were the racists for some reason for wanting our kids in school, we were wrong and we told them no, we are not wrong, we know what our kids need and it backfired because now we are right and not only are we right and we know that they are wrong, a lot of parents like me are

standing up and going okay, i'm going to make sure this doesn't happen again. do you want to hold onto that power? think again. thousands of parents across the country are running for the school boards right now and we saw what happened in florida. i'm fighting here for my school board member just one of thousands of parents. we are going to take over school boards and fire everyone of those losers. >> i've got someone else to put on that list. we got to get rid of all of these partisans in school districts. this is west cook news, describe what's happening in oak park river forest, a new grading system. oak park river forest, exclude from their grading assessment, disproportionally, the grades of black students can no longer be docked for missing class, misbehaving and school were failing to turn in assignments according to the plan so it essentially saying black

students need better treatment, not equal treatment and i guess we can't get the muster. i can't think of anything more racist. >> i agree, it racism and action. the numbers we saw, reading and math numbers, nobody was more effective than black children and i think the rhetoric keira was referring to where everybody wanted schools to open was racist which clearly made no sense, it impacted this and the fact that black kids didn't get to go to school when their white counterparts did had immeasurable impact on their lives and nobody has been held accountable and the fact is we are going to keep seeing this decline in numbers until we face what we've done. i don't think it's over, i think for example i know my own family we see a delay in what our kids

know based on closures lived through. were getting our kids help but not everybody is able too and i think we will see numbers continue to decrease. >> it's like we are going back in time instead of getting the kids proper education, they would just change the state, i think of anything more insulting. thank you for joining the program. with all politics in the educational space, no wonder we have a teacher shortage. l.a. alone, a new study revealed 70% of teachers have considered or are considering leaving the profession entirely. last week we introduced you to a teachers focus group and we are bringing them back to discuss school board that have become a controversial unilateral decision maker. >> we talk about leadership and we have folks in leadership that are ministers. what can they do to support teachers? >> i've been incredibly blessed because of been at the same school 19 years.

teachers at my school don't leave for random reasons and if they have to leave, they are very upset because we have such incredible leadership. happy teachers make happy kids and happy kids are learners. that's incredibly important and the district as a whole to teach and is extremely supportive. >> is it a numbers game the further away largest school districts, you just become a number because they have so many teachers there? the same for students who can't address every single problem. >> at times it can be because i have worked in a number of different schools but sometimes it's the district and sometimes districts put pressure on administrators and the administrators have to put the pressure on the teachers. unfortunately it falls to the lapse of the teachers. >> how do we recruit younger teachers, how do we raise standards for the profession with respect again? >> we have 122 billion dollars

sitting there from the american rescue plan. only 7% as of this past may has been spent. not sure why but why don't we put some of that funding into our talents? let's make teaching fun again. >> what you think it will take to recruit new, fresh talents and retain the ones we have? >> retaining i think depends on the district, the leadership. i teach 500 students because i teach the entire school. i am an elementary music teacher so i see k through four, that support system really needs to be there for the teachers to feel like i want to continue teaching. >> teachers have to buy a lot of supplies and stuff themselves. do you think that turning the profession as well? they're not making that much

already and now they have to pay for the stuff? >> absolutely, that's one trend people wonder. i know an elementary my daughter was going, who would get a laundry list of things teachers asked us to bring in and i would say i bring two to three bags of supplies the class would utilize through the year and during december we get a list that comes home during break where they say the things we are short on, anything you can do we appreciate but why isn't the school covering that? if they are school supplies for the classroom, shouldn't the school and county be responsible for covering the expenses? who want successful students than we need all the right tools at our disposal at every time we need them. >> next, latest details out of the florida fans

apartment in april. the 26-year-old is claiming self-defense, prosecutors say evidence says otherwise. she's charged with second-degree murder. joining enough to break down, bryan. thank you for joining the program. you have a lot of insight on this, they have this tumultuous relationship, like back-and-forth, they were going to get kicked out of the apartment because they were seen during this nonsense and she stabs the guy and pleads self-defense? where does this go? >> great to be back with you. this was a horrific case and let's start with second-degree murder, that doesn't require premeditation so this is something not premeditated but what the prosecutors do have to prove beyond reasonable doubt is she had a depraved mind when she stabbed the victim so that's going to be a daunting task for the prosecutors but here's how they do it.

prosecutors are going to show through semantics hibbs clarion artery was sliced, just below your clavicle, the main artery was sliced. she says i took the knife 6 feet away and threw the knife at him so forensics, that's going to come for prosecution as a way to minute, it has to be a close range stabbing and probably due to anger. conversely, she's going to argue look, i am the victim of domestic abuse virus defending myself but she lied about the 6 feet it wasn't 60 toss with the knife, is the jury going to believe her? number two, are -- is there evidence of prior police to report? as she called the police on him to prove they have been prior disputes between the two? >> before i let you go, first cops shut the investigation down, issue going to use it in her defense and say the cops

shut this down and prosecutors gave it a second look and now they are trying to charge me because there investigators? does she put cops on the stand for her case? >> good question. i don't think that will come in but you are raising good points, why in the world was she not arrested? have blood -- by the way, she had blood, massive blood all over her sweatpants, on her bra, that to me signals a crime of anger and passion. another thing, the videotape mothers videotape months prior of her pummeling him in the elevator. >> you see on the screen right now. >> i didn't see that. so real quick, two ways to get evidence, one is your own case, i don't think the prosecutors can get that video in their case but when she puts up the argument self-defense, i'm a domestic violence victim, prosecutors can use this video

for was called impeachment, to impeach that and i've got to tell you the video is devastating, she looks like a lunatic pummeling him even when she gets out of the elevator so i think when the case goes to trial, i do think the prosecution has a good chance of getting a conviction. >> onward to be watching but it looks crazy. people, stay off only fans. look what happened there. thank you for joining the program. an athlete speaking out after a vaccine mandate almost hindered his sports career. he came back victorious. that's next. ♪

welcome back. we've already talked about how much damage to left covid restrictions have had on use in the classroom but some of these

policies are still going on to this day in punishing those who don't fall mine. i went to martinsburg west virginia and spoke to the student athlete vaccinated cost him his spot on the high school basketball team. >> so tell me when you first found out you wouldn't be able to play basketball anymore. >> our first game was coming up on thursday and my coach pulled me over saying you're not vaccinated so you cannot play and i was just like -- i was heartbroken. >> you are just a basketball player but the keep team captain. >> i was the team captain, i thought i would be so big that i would maybe go to championships. our team was so solid and i did know i wouldn't play so it broke me and my team broke. >> what did your teammates say? >> they were sad, the whole team was on the verge of heartbroken and after that the next day the

game we lost because of you, you should have played in the put pressure on the because i knew i couldn't play but they rub it in my face but they don't know. >> did you understand why you were able to go to school but not able to play basketball? >> i didn't. i would have to get vaccinated for this one thing? >> besides her parents, do you feel anybody was fighting for you trying to help you understand, provide more information or say this is just not fair to take the sport away from you? >> to be honest i don't think nobody ever gave me closure, i don't think so. not even my coaches, they probably said i feel bad for you, it wasn't like they gave me something to hold on like okay, i understand i have to be vaccinated, didn't give me none

of that. >> how is it going all the way to west virginia, totally different environment? >> it took me a while to find my group but when i found it, it's like heart. it's not like harlem, it's different, better in a real family. i like my team, they are cool people. every time you see people, we laugh and have so much fun. >> some people say you are like kyrlie irving. >> i felt related to him when it happened because it was like i have the same problem because he's an nba player and he plays basketball and loves the sport and can't play in the home games because new york was so strict and i was like that's so related to my situation like that so cool. >> it was good meeting you. proud of you man. >> look at that smile, he's happy and playing ball again. joining me now, fox news contributor sarah carter. thanks for coming on.

this kid was the team captain. >> glad to be with you. >> thank you. they rifted away from him. he could go to school but couldn't play on the basketball team. it makes 0 cents and we seen the impact on the kids in school but businesses, it seems like there hasn't been any accountability from education to the housing crisis now. mental health, none of that is talked about today. >> absolutely. when you hear his story, the heartbreaks because he isn't the only one. obviously having to move and go to another state, find a new family, a new team to play with, it's gutwrenching. this is all because -- it's been so wishy-washy with covid since the beginning, people -- this is the reason most americans don't trust what the cdc and other doctors are saying especially

doctor fauci, we seen backlash against him. we seen backlash the last few years and it's because of these mandates. one day you have to wear a mask in the next day you don't but if the next day the masks are kind of working in the next day the masks really don't work. whether or not we should get boosters, whether or not vaccines are working the way they need to be working. even right now coming up with a new booster shot this fall, a lot of people are saying we don't know if there's enough science behind the booster shots. we've seen it work in mice but will it work in humans? people are waiting to see if they are going to do it but i think what is so gutwrenching is what happened to our children and what they have done to our children in schools and also incense.

we seen the studies, the rise in suicides. we seen people ostracized because they didn't want to get the vaccine. we seen what happened even in our military and it's been detrimental to us. once you get to where you realize this is what could be assisting people more susceptible to covid take precautions, i think that's why we see people back away from this extreme action, it's unfortunate like states like new york and other states have not done so. >> the last thing i will say is is going to come a time where we need medical professionals again and information. i'm just worried they ruined their credibility and no one will listen. it's a classic thing to tell your children, don't be the boy who cried wolf and right now that is who they are. thank you for joining the program. you know and love jimmy failla, he's

[laughter] you know how to go traditional route. i'm not saving them money, i'm saving -- i'm saving for wig and this kid is going to duke and starting in the woman's team but i think the prank is funny for two reasons. one, the dad looks like all of

us watching biden's speech thursday night. like what is this crap? come on but it's also funny because while the rest of the world is laughing at these dads, every dad china is laughing because the government is stealing our information off tik tok so it's like a doing circle of ridiculousness but i did think it was funny. i don't know what it says about my grades that i had to google what a scholarship was. [laughter] >> i think you found the trick, put him in address and let him play for somebody else. i got to get your thoughts on this though because they are trying to boycott joe rogan for saying vote republican. this nonsense is going way too far. first of all, he is a liberal. let me play this and i'll get your reaction. >> as far as compensation for the people forced to close their

businesses and keep their doors shuttered and lost everything they worked for decades to build, there's going to be angry. >> would you tell them? >> vote republican. more than 1 million transferred to the republic and party. i think 2021 alone. find out that number. more than 1 million voters switched gop raising alarms for democrats. >> so he said that and now they don't want him. he's on their side. >> that's the part that so crazy, he's a pot smoking bernie but if you defy their sought orthodoxy for 30 seconds, it's like a zombie movie. if you are bit once, they are done with you, they kill you but every time these social pressure campaigns come down, they are wrong. in this, they said we can't let rogan have a platform because he

supports the republicans who are fascist. thus the claim but if you ban political speech you don't agree with, you are a fascist, classic projections. it's like if las vegas said kansas city has a gambling problem. like dude, you are doing this. that's my problem. let's just say really quick, they tried to ban him from spotify once before for saying vaccinated people could get covid. all of these social pressure campaigns are stupid and never on the right side of the issue. >> let me tell you, he moved to texas. he started to understand the liberty movement, that is the solution. moved to texas and get a taste of freedom but they may boycot
