5:02 am
remains comfortable at this hour at the castle. members of the royal family such aspirins charles and womenial have arrived in scotland to visit skean elizabeth the second. we will keep you post educate on that >> in the meantime welcome to hour three of fox and friends for this thursday and we've got carley in today for ainsley. >> carley: that's right. >> brian: and you wouldn't think that, for example, both -- you wouldn't think that the both printers would be available at the same time that maybe something is going on within the family that they knew, prince harry knew to be around. >> carley: that's exactly right. and members of the royal family are apparently on their way to the hospital. you know, one thing about queen elizabeth is that she's -- obviously she's lived such an incredible life and she's been one of the royals to make such a strong and positive mark on the royal family and she is advancing in years.
5:03 am
and despite her age, she remains somebody that always seems to be very healthy and very vibrant but you always, because of her age, you do wonder when something like this could happen. so everybody of course here in the u.s. is wishing her the best of luck with health. >> steve: right. and it is a time of transition in the uk. it was just a couple days ago where there was an image of the queen shakins with the incoming prime minister liz truss. this news broke while the new prime minister was delivering the plan for dealing with an energy crisis and a note was passed to the labor leader according to sky news. the pm has cancelled engagements yesterday, rather the queen cancelled engagements and resting on doctor's advice after meeting the outgoing prime minister boris johnson and welcoming ms. truss she welcomed both, rather than buckingham palace which is different than tradition. that's why she's at she's not in
5:04 am
london. >> brian: to keep in mind how many events she's had to cancel postpone not appear at where traditionally she's been there for 50-plus years and of course getting up there in age and the stress of this family fracture must not have been easy on top of that the pandemic and the loss of her husband. >> carley: that's right. >> brian: she's certainly had her handful the last few years, anything but a glide path which is a difficult schedule with her obligations. >> carley: yeah. >> steve: it was just a month or two ago when in london they marked her jubilee as the monarch of great britain. she's 96 years old. she spent the summer at balance marrow castle and that is upnorth at the family's royal estate in aberdeen shire scotland. >> carley: we are looking at that right now where she is being treated, one of her favorite places, she vacations in balmore 0 scotland i spent downtime with her family there so that is where she decided to
5:05 am
stay and be treated for the health condition she is currently undergoing. she's 96 years old and like you just said, we celebrated the platinum jubilee just a few months ago covered extensively on fox and friends. ainsley was there. >> brian: yeah. >> carley: that's right, with martha and piers morgan and it was really a wonderful celebration but some of the events that were going on changed in terms of scheduling because she was originally going to go to them and because of her health, because of her age, she decided to cancel and pull back a little bit on the rigorous schedule. >> steve: she was able to do that first main event where the family for the most part came out on the face, facing the plaza there at buckingham palace to a huge ovation, and also about the same time we saw the queen actually do that little bit with paddington bare where she pulled a marmalade sandwich out of her purse which the world
5:06 am
loved to see the queen at 96 making a joke about, look, i've got a jelly sandwich in my purse. >> brian: prime minister liz truss said this, the whole country will be deeply concerned by the news from buckingham palace this lunchtime adding my thoughts and thoughts of the people across our united kingdom are with her imagine city and the queen and her family at this time. she put that out on twitter. so we'll continue to follow this story and see what happens. obviously prince charles, if something was to happen, a lot of people thought maybe the queen would step aside in advanced age and enjoy herself and turn over the duties to prince charles but that really hasn't happened as of yet. >> steve: right. the key, though, is, you know, she is 96 years old and for the fact that doctors are now publicly saying they are -- they're using the word concerned as you can see in the banner, that makes it a little different and that's why the eyes of the
5:07 am
world are on scotland and how is the queen. >> carley: seven decades on the thrown. she has handed duties over to prince charles as she has suffered from mobility issues. that's a thing we kept on hearing during the platinum jubilee that she had mobility issues. >> steve: sure and it was within the last year or so that prince philip died and it has been a challenging year for the monarch. we will keep you posted throughout the day right here on fox >> in the meantime from scotland to memphis tennessee and a man accused of live streaming a diddley shooting spree spanning eight different crime seasons in memphis is in police custody this morning after a day-long man hunt. >> brian: all right and we're learning the suspect who has a long rap sheet should have been behind bars. >> carley: griff jenkins is live with all the details, griff. >> good morning carley, brian and steve. eight crime seasons, think about that for a second, left four dead three others shot along with two carjackings all at the hands of one live streaming
5:08 am
individual. the suspect's name is ezekiel kelly you see him here. the bloody rampage began at 12:56 a.m. wednesday memphis police tweeting officers responding to a shooting that left a 24 year old male dead. another victim is gunned down at 4:35 p.m. at a gas station. after 7:00 p.m. a woman dies on the scene from gunshot wounds and just before 9:00 p.m. the fourth murder victim is killed, finally at 9:28 p.m. the suspect is taken into custody after crashing the second car he stole. and the worst part of it all guys he should have been behind bars. here's what we know about his criminal past. in 2020, kelly was charged with first degree attempted murder f aggravated assault, employment of a firearm with intent to commit a dangerous felony and reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon. he was sentenced to three years in prison but only served 11 months after his murder charge was downgraded to aggravated assault and he was released in march of this year. memphis mayor jim strickland had
5:09 am
this reaction. >> if mr. kelly served his full three-year sentence, he would still be in prison today, and four of our fellow citizens would still be alive. >> his mother and eliza fletcher's body found suspect cleotha abston due in court today facing first degree murder charges. he like kelly had a long rap sheet. you see here between 1995 and 2000 arrest ready 16 times age 11 arrested for theft, age 14 convicted of rape and at age 16 abducted a lawyer at gunpoint and served 20 years of a 24-year kidnapping sentence. mean while tomorrow morning at 4:00 a.m., fellow members of a liza will run in her honor to remember the mother and kind teacher she was. ♪ this little light of mine i'm

going to let it shine, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine ♪ >> and if that wasn't nufshgs police are still looking for a a second suspect in the kidnapping of a mother and her one year old son. they were and ducted in broad daylight outside of a target store. this suspect here will hayes is in custody his accomplice still at large. the mother and child by the way were released but all of this is having a complete -- taking a toll on the city i was born and raised in. a local broadcaster bringing news for 25 years broke down on the air last night saying memphis is tired. >> steve: she's right griff thank you very much. >> brian: crime out of control. griff thank you. let's bring in fox weekend cohost does everything pete hegseth. pete same thing different city two horrific things happening in memphis but i could point out to the story in the new york post,
5:11 am
a woman with a machete for the second time in three days hits a guy in the head, fractures his scull almost kills him. we know about some of the horrific things happening in the streets all across the city. it's the same story. when are people going to get fed up enough to do something about it? >> you can't dispute the basics. the basics are repeat offenders are the ones who commit the majority of the crimes, especially violent crimes and sexual assault crimes and when you don't have consequences turns out they do it again. and when they don't serve their entire sentence and they're let out early they don't believe there will be a real punishment for the next crime. here's the thing guys, memphis just elected a new democrat da about two weeks ago who vowed to have a fairer justice system. so it's not clear that it's heading in the right direction in a place like memphis where they didn't defund the police although there were calls for it. so these things can be very complicated. but there's been a hundred kidnappings in memphis alone. this is gangs, family breakdown and politicians without the
5:12 am
courage to say criminals will stay in jail and we will charge them with what they did. >> steve: sure, pete let's go international and talk about something we were talking about last year in august. tens of thousands of people were being evacuated from afghanistan and now, according to the inspector general of the department of homeland security, apparently a lot of those people that we let in, we didn't vet, and some could pose a national security concern. here's the white house yesterday responding to this news. >> we were told no one is coming into the united states of america who has not been through a thorough screening and background check process but now there's this dhs inspector general who says cbp admitted or paroled evacuees who were not fully vetted into the united states. that is not good. that is different than what you guys said. so how did this happen. >> no, it's not different from what we have said. that very report did not take into account the key steps in that rigorous, you heard from
5:13 am
us, rigorous and multi layered screening and vetting process the u.s. government took before at-risk afgans were permitted to come to the u.s. it did not take into full account of what the other eight agencies are involved in making sure that this multi-layered process and screening process, it is a, it is a multi agency effort. >> so, pete, who do you believe? do you believe the watch dog, the inspector general, the department of homeland security, or the white house? >> i don't believe the gobbley gook i just heard from karin jeanne-pierre. you know why? because -- can you ever really? here's one piece of evidence you need between your lying eyes and what the white house said. joe biden stood at the podium and called the afghanistan evacuation an extraordinary success. everyone watching, everyone involved knew it was a debacle including people i talked to on the groined including the vets
5:14 am
who helped get people through holes in tunnels and safety. everyone knows it was a disaster and everyone knows tens of thousands of afgans who had almost no association to americans eventually got on planes to the united states. i've seen some of the places where those afgans are being processed, one at fort dix new jersey. in many cases there's no paperwork, they have no background. they have no way of proving who they are or how they got here or what unit they worked with. this is a debacle now because it was an absolute debacle in afghanistan. and, yes, guys like scott man did a great job finding special operators and vetting them themselves. i believe a lot was the state department and government organizations in ad hoc ways pulling in people and families saying we'll deal with the vetting on the back end. now we're dealing with it. and, oh, by the way, you know, the taliban's in charge and al qaeda has infiltrated. every single person needs to be vetted and you know they're not going to do a good job. >> brian: so look at this background i know someone
5:15 am
vetting them in a third country. 11,110 records say date of birth january 1st. is it possible that 11,110 afganees were born on january 1st? >> here's what i know i know plenty of afgans that didn't know their birthday. totally different society. 90% of men who join the afgan army couldn't write their name or spell. so this is a society who is completely backwards and we assumed that we could input a formal document system to vet them as opposed to gradually identifying our allies, many of which we worked with for years. i knew exactly who i worked with, i know how to get in touch with them. i did help one and a few of them get over. that was very specific. but we were letting in groups and groups based on ad hoc paperwork and, yes, brian, they were not all born on january 1st. >> carley: well, pete, the patriot awards are coming up. last year you mced the show you did such a good job.
5:16 am
this year you're doing it again. >> well, all i know is last year was phenomenal and i'm involved in the planning right now and it's going to be ramped up. november 17th patriot awards, hollywood, florida, hard rock hotel and casino there. as you guys know an award show like no other, ones our patriots deserve, what hollywood in california will never do honor our real heroes. get your tickets they're going fast. really november 17th. once you select your seat, i want fox and friends viewers to know. once you select your seat on ticket master you have an option to purchase tickets to pre show party at that includes book signings meet and greets photo opportunities as well as other events like cocktail party and show taping, you can watch live fox shows. so check those out after you put your seats in the basket at ticket master, you've got other options to attend what is a

bash, and the list of fox people that will be there is longer than i could describe right now but you guys will be there and we can't wait to meet lots of our fox and friends friends. >> steve: so go to foxnation.com/patriotawards for more information. pete thank you very much. >> carley: thank you pete. >> thank you. >> pete helping out with the planning. >> carley: that's right. party planner as well >> a north texas high school is looking to fill the void to solve the pilot shortage across america. >> steve: so students there are training to earn their wings and some of them are only 16 years old. >> brian: from our sister net work fox business live in addison texas with the details. conle. >> good morning brian interesting because we talk about in the pilot shortage and a number of reasons whether it's early retirement or the military not training as many pilots as they used to years ago but either way the numbers are staggering. by one senate north american will need 130,000 additional pilots over the next 20 years which is obviously, you know, a
5:18 am
tall order. but as they say, you have to start somewhere. and i did want to show you around here at rising aviation high school, an interesting place as you say just outside of dallas. it's a private high school and when you arrive here and start talking to the students at first in many ways, it's just what you would expect. >> take care of all of their other courses, core courses, math, science history and all that, it's just that again we're emersed in aviation. so it's our elected courses which are the aviation component. >> and when you're kind of emersed in aviation as the principal says you have a flight simulator, right? they're in your school. maybe you have a couple planes with the school name on the side of them right outside the school where 16 year olds can at least start to learn how to fly, maybe work as a remote pilot or private pilot certificate. hamilton grant is the name of one of the tenth graders, this is an impressive young man in many ways. his dad worked for the airlines mom used to be a flight
5:19 am
attendant. and i can tell you from experience he did a great job of flying us around. we were up in the air with him yesterday, with an instructor mind you. but he took control for what they call a steep turn. >> steep turns are really nice, they're super fun. they kind of help sort of coordinate your situational awareness a little bit and they sort of help you feel what it's like for the aircraft to be under load. >> we had our situational awareness coordinator, no doubt about it. he turned that thing right on a dime. you can see it here. it was fun. this was a 16 year old and by the fact that i'm here telling you the story, he did a pretty good job of it. we're back the next day right? now the plan with the school guys is to keep growing. they would like to expand maybe pick up an airline as a response or or something like that to make it more affordable for more students. they have 23 students right now. it's private school tuition although a number of scholarships and the one thing i can tell you is there's a lot of enthusiasm when you meet these students and perhaps, you know, steve, brian, and carley, that's
5:20 am
because they know that this is an industry they're getting into that could really use their help. >> steve: conle great idea. thank you very much for the live report from texas >> about 8:20 here in the east. we are staying on top of the queen's health. more about concerns about it coming up. >> brian: plus tucker carlson will talk about the queen's health and so much more, he'll be here live. >> carley: and feeling the heat as california experiences an extreme heat wave. governor gavin newsome is asking people to make not so cool concession was the less green push turning people red. host of the rubin report dave rubin reacts live. ♪ announcer: type 2 diabetes? discover the power of 3 in the ozempic® tri-zone. in my ozempic® tri-zone, i lowered my a1c, cv risk, and lost some weight. announcer: ozempic® provides powerful a1c reduction. in studies, the majority of people reached an a1c under 7 and maintained it. ozempic® lowers the risk of major cardiovascular events

5:27 am
summer and into early fall it does get really hot often in california. this is what progressives do. they tell you we've got these green new policies, we're going to do all this stuff for the environment. all we'll need is more tax money from you, and not to use air conditioning and other electric utilities, things of that nature. and, of course, then he puts out this video while he's wearing a flees in california. and there is just simply no way that his house is less than 78 degrees, as he's asking everyone else to, and i have no doubt that nancy pelosi and eric swalwell and the rest of them who are all pretending that they are going to do what they're saying, they're all obviously -- >> carley: to be fair we don't know exactly where he filmed that video with him in the flees. it could have been the french laundry we're unclear on that point. >> right. >> carley: gavin new snobol california there is an electric grid crisis, a homeless crisis, a crime crisis, and people are saying he could be the next president of the united states
5:28 am
to challenge joe biden. why him? >> there's an extraordinary privilege in the united states, it's actually the only privilege i think really exists which is democrat privilege. you can basically as a democrat do everything wrong, cause endless disaster after disaster, whether it's the homelessness in cali or the drugs or the failing schools or roads, the environmental disaster, and you seemingly move up the ladder. as i said he went from san francisco as the mayor to the governor and it seems like president will be the next stop. in a weird way that's almost the fight that america needs. it's like okay if the democrats are going all in on social justice, all in on these backwards environmental policies, all in on the endless ineptitude, well then, okay, they are telling you what they are. and then the republicans have to say what they are. i think it starts here in florida with ron desantis and freedom but that maybe is the fight that we need. and, look, gavin newsome, it's pretty simple. 2020 and 2021 were the first
5:29 am
years in california's history that it ever had a loss of population. hundreds of thousands of people, including a lot of the high earners who give all that tax money to the state, they have fled. and where do they live right now and where are they building businesses? florida, tennessee, texas. i, myself, took two businesses and many employees out of california just a year ago and now i'm in florida. >> carley: that's right. that's what they call voting with your feet. there are so many people that are moving to florida who are once from states like illinois, california, new york, because of high taxes, high crime. people want to go to florida instead of the places that they once were. but you originally did live in california and it is true, right? there are long standing wieshs the electrical grid. it almost happens every single summer like clock work and this is absolutely no surprise that it's happening once again. dave we have to leave it there thank you so much for joining us. >> good to see you. >> carley: a fox news alert,

medical supervision over growing concerns about her health >> carley: buckingham pal answer saying the monarch remains comfortable at balmoral castle in scotland. >> brian: how do we get to this point getting these alerts. martha maccallum in london covering the queen's jubilee and does almost everything with the royal family is back joining us now on the phone. martha what does it mean to you we are getting this type of direct alerts about the queen's health? >> well, good morning brian and steve and carley. this is clearly a significant development. this statement put out by the palace, the queen is at balmoral where she spends the entire summer. and the fact that they're saying that she's under the supervision of her doctors is phrasing that we really haven't heard before. it sounds as if they're making her comfortable. i just would caution obviously -- it's easy to sort
5:35 am
of get ahead of ourselves here and we absolutely don't want to do that. her mother lived to be 103. she had a couple of moments where it looked as if the end may be near and that turned out not to be the case and we certainly hope that the queen will recover from this. but, you know, it's absolutely puts certain things in motion. we know that charles and camilla have headed to balmoral, and that the duke of -- that the duke -- that william is also his way, the duke of cambridge, excuse me, is also on his way to be with the queen there. i would also just mention that william and katherine have moved their families to a cottage on windsor, on the windsor estate, which is closer to london, and that's the main home of queen elizabeth when she is in england. but she loves being in scotland and there has always been sort of the speculation that that would be where she would want to spend her final days. she didn't leave there to come
5:36 am
down and receive liz truss as she usually would at buckingham palace when she gave her the authorization to form a government which is the way they put it and she was the 14th prime minister that the queen has done that for. so clearly everybody is on edge and waiting and we'll see where this goes. we're waiting for a statement from the palace. i think we're going to hear something fairly significant from them soon >> steve: yeah. i know you were in london and saw her come out with the rob o'neill family at the jubilee where they all came out of the window. we haven't seen much of her since and, in fact, it was just a couple of days ago martha and i'm sure you saw this image, you just mentioned liz truss the incoming prime minister. there is an image made of the queen shaking hands with the incoming prime minister, and there are a number of people online who are commenting on her blue hand because they said there was a dark blue bruise on her right hand, and then people
5:37 am
on twitter immediately were very concerned because not only does she look frail but she had that mark. >> we've been seeing some of those indications before. i think those are not that uncommon in people of her age. she is fragile, and there are some questions about whether or not there's a deeper condition that is going on. we're going to await for word for confirmation from the palace but clearly she has what's been termed mobility problems for the past several years and we've seen her with the cane. she looked pretty spry the other day with liz truss and that was clearly a moment that was important to her beginning the process with the new prime minister is something that she started when she was with winston churchill at the age of 25. so she is an institution. she is a world -- probably the most well known figure in the world, and she has seen it all. so it will trigger a lot of
5:38 am
enormous change when that moment does come. and as i said we're waiting for some more information from the palace. when that moment does come, you know, and we'll that have conversation at that time, but there's a lot of things that kick into place very quickly. >> steve: what about the fact martha. >> the children by her side is the most important thing right now. >> steve: and why is harry in town? and do you think that has anything to do with this? >> he and his wife were there for a separate set of appearances that they're making, and there was no intention at that point for them to spend any time with the royal family. nothing scheduled or planned for that. of course if her health is in decline in a serious way that would certainly change all that as well. >> carley: seems like a coincidence on the harry front. there were concerns yesterday evening when she cancelled her participation in a virtual meeting with the members of her privy council but we did see the picture of her with the new

prime minister liz truss and she had a big smile on her face. so you're right, she seemed to appear healthy in that photo but then we're also hearing that someone analysts were worried about her because they felt that she also looked frail. but, you know, given her age, that is to be understood. >> yeah, yeah. >> carley: martha, can you reflect on the platinum jubilee for us? you were there covering it for an extensive period of time and it was such an incredible celebration of her life and legacy. >> well, the queen just celebrated 70, in june, 70 years on the throne. she is the longest reigning british monarch. she's the longest reigning monarch in the world with the exception of one other individual. and, you know, her mark on history is extraordinary. and i think that people underestimate the value of the relationship between the prime ministers and the queen.
5:40 am
there is a lot of discussion about policy. but those discussions are kept completely private. and that is -- the ability to be prime minister, to be able to rely on these very private conversations with the queen as a deep source of wisdom and guidance for them is invaluable. and she has always been very careful to keep her own feelings about policy very close to the vest, because that allows these prime ministers the ability to have someone they can bounce things off of in a way that is of counsel, which is a very significant relationship. and one other thing i would just say about what we're hearing from the doctors now. if you look back at the history of, you know, the communications with the public that happened for queen victoria or king george v, there is this
5:41 am
preparing the public for the moment. and i think that's what we're getting here, sharing their concerns a little bit so far so it is clearly signify snooped sure. buckingham palace says the doctors are very concerned, while that is very vague, just the fact this they're saying something that broad, that in itself is concerning because they don't normally talk about her health like this. >> exactly. so that, you know, that's why i say it's significant. they clearly want to prepare people that she has taken a turn and we will see. you know, as we all know who have been through these sorts of things with elderly relatives, you know, sometimes it's significant and sometimes it's just, you know, a moment of decline. and she did look very well on tuesday, but she did cancel that virtual meeting on wednesday
5:42 am
with the privy council and today we have this announcement so clearly it has everyone's attention and is a significant moment. >> brian: martha why do you think they would be so transparent in this? is there a different approach when it comes to the queen about being transparent about concerns like this? because with a major public figure in america, without someone breaking the story, there wouldn't be a push to get to the bottom of someone's health, which is something extremely personal, wouldn't you think? >> well, she's head of state and she's head of the church. so, i mean, you know, she is a public figure. so i think there's a responsibility at that point to sort of indicate where -- a little bit about what they know and, as i said, i think this is their way of preparing people. there's an enormous amount of process that goes on throughout the entire commonwealth. there's, you know, days of condolences, it would kick in a whole process for prince charles
5:43 am
who would immediately become the king and would travel to a number of different countries in short order. obviously he's in scotland right now, in order to begin that condolence process. but as i said, that will all unfold. but suffice to say that it's a very, very detailed, long process. it's called london bridge and it's been in the works since the 1960s. >> brian: wow. >> so that i believe is the reason for that transparency, this the signal to all of the different entities that it's time to perhaps be ready if, indeed, she does decline to the point where she doesn't recover. >> carley: well just notable information about her life, she became queen at age 25 on february 6, 1952, after her father, george the vi died. she is the sixth female to ascend the british throne. over the course of her reign, these are some sort of interesting facts, the queen sat for over 200 official portraits,
5:44 am
conferred over 404,500 honors so you are right in saying she is a staple. she is a main stay and she is sort of the north star of the uk, and she is well loved within the country. she's also suffered some really significant losses in some very tumultuous times over the past few years, most notably the dealt of her husband and also the huge fracture in her family with harry and meghan moving to the u.s. >> it's very true carley. prince philip was, she called him her strength and her stay. they had an extraordinary relationship and long marriage. you know, she fell in love with him as a young woman and chose her own husband in a very definitive way that he was this very dashing naval officer of greek background. and she and philip were by each
5:45 am
other's side throughout her entire monarchy. so the loss of philip was a huge, painful loss. and you remember it happened during covid, and the images of her in black in westminster grieving the loss with her mask on alone were really powerful. so i think that has been a tremendous, tremendous grief for her, obviously. she also had covid, after which she became thinner, and i think, you know, it may be that that also took a toll on her. she is 96 years old. and, yes, i think that the rupture between william and harry also very painful for the family. and his decision, which was an enormous decision because he was supposed to really be the person that would always be by william's side, as a team in a way, to support each other. it's an obviously very luxurious
5:46 am
privileged life but it also can be a lonely life and to have people around you who understand it is enormously helpful. so i think that she has always put her duty before everything else, and i think perhaps this young couple in harry and meghan is a couple putting other things before that duty to their country. and no doubt that's painful. one thing i will say about the jubilee is they made it quite clear on several occasions, especially on the final event when, out on the balcony came charles and camilla, the queen, william and kate, and george and the children, which made it a very strong demonstration that there are three ready to go generations. >> steve: good point. >> harry was the spare, not necessarily needed in the line of succession at this point at all. >> brian: just wait until the book comes out evidently at this rate. >> absolutely. >> brian: martha thanks so much for joining us today, appreciate
5:47 am
it. i know you'll be covering it throughout the day with the channel and your story at 3:00 thank you. >> you bet. >> carley: thanks so much martha >> now let's turn to this. far left squad member alexandria ocasio-cortez weighing in on her future, her political future and presidential ambitions as gq's newest cover girl. >> brian: another reason to get gq i guess. the progressive congresswoman claiming she won't go on to run the country because quote my experience here has given me a front row seat to have deeply and unconsciously as well as consciously so many people in this country hate women. she really loves this, doesn't it? >> steve: then she bee moaned her job in congress saying imagine working a job and your bosses don't like you and folks on your team are suspicious of you and then the competing company is trying to kill you. >> carley: what? >> steve: so we have set up a conversation for our buddy at 8:00 p.m. eastern time tucker carlson who joins us now.
5:48 am
tucker aoc has a lot to say [laughter]. >> they're trying to kill me. they hate me. they just don't like women. really? who hates women? i never met anyone who hates women. >> not yet. >> most men actually really like women as far as i know. but, look, she's very easy to make fun of, but i think the key thing to remember is this works, a. b, she means it. she's sincere in it. she's so wrapped up in her own narrative she really believes she is a victim. and, c, clearly she thinks she's going to be president. she has a sense of her own destiny. and i think it would be a huge mistake to underestimate someone like this. i think she's very talented. obviously i think she's ludicrous, we morning her mercilessly, well deserved, she's a fraud. she's not a pop lift or suppressed, of course not. she's a tool of the people already in charge. but i also think she has a political future and
5:49 am
conservatives would be unwise to dismiss her as just a fad, she's more than that. and i think she is going to run for president and i think at some point she has a pretty good shot of winning. so i wouldn't blow her off as a minor phenomenon. >> brian: she really doesn't have much of a constituency outside queens, i don't think she's ever even in queens and when she tries to endorse a candidate it doesn't really go too well. >> no, but she is the master of social media, and she has the kind of appearance of transparency. she did this very famous video of herself applying makeup and i didn't get it at first and of course made fun of it because it's just narcissism on parade, as if we're interested in watching her apply makeup can you imagine anything more tedious about that? but there is something about that that's very compelling. and, again, she believes that she has a destiny. that she is, at some point going to ascend to high office. i've watched a lot of this over 30 years and the people who wind up winning are the ones who are
5:50 am
completely convinced, on the most basic level, that they're going to be in charge in the end. who really, i hate to say it, who believe in themselves. so as absurd as she is i see her and think this this person actually has a shot and that's terrifying because she's a ridiculous march sa sift with no record of achieving anything only destroying things. it's bad. it's scary. >> carley: so she talked about how this country hates women. i agree, i don't feel hated at all. >> you are loved. >> carley: i love living here as a matter of fact. but when it comes to her being president she also said i live in a country that would never let that happen despite the fact that the vice-president is a female, if we're still doing gender. and she's supposed to be a role model and an inspiration of young women so is this a sort of message you would think somebody who's supposed to inspire the next generation would deliver? >> well, i mean, the message is very common now, which is i'm oppressed, i'm a victim, give me
5:51 am
power. i mean, this is a means to power, of course, and that's why you see it everywhere. at its core it's a lie. i mean i bet if you were to interview the women in her office and ask them who treats you better, your boss, who's a woman, or the men you work for? i mean, and you see this in offices across the country. i mean if you're really honest about it, men hate women. really? it's not male bosses who mistreat female employees. let's stop lying about it. everybody knows the truth. women are much tougher on women than men are in the workplace which is true. sorry you're not allowed to say that that's real. so the idea that she's like an advocate for women. really? in what way? it's absurd. >> she also said she could never marry a white guy she should tell her white boyfriend that. >> she is white. that's the other thing. oh, i'm an oppressed racial minority. really? you're named after a
5:52 am
conquestador. you're from west chester. stop it. at he too dumb. >> tucker you're up early today talking to us, you're working on fox nation, a brand new two-part series available now on fox nation called transgress ive the consult of confusion. you brought along a preview clip how would you like to set up what we're about to see. >> so many other things what's being sold as a liberation movement is actually cruelty and cruelty to children that should be illegal. and we interviewed a bunch of people who have been through the surgeries which are, you know, basically castration or physical mutilation of the body, and look back with horror and regret. and their voices should be heard. this is wrong what's happening it should be illegal and i think this documentary shows it. >> steve: all right. let's roll the clip. watch this. >> so historically gender dysphoria afflicted.01% of the population so roughly one in
5:53 am
10,000 and they were overwhelmingly male. the numbers were even smaller when it came to females, i think it was one in 30,000. today, the newest report is that one in 20 young women in college are identifying as trans. that is an enormous spike. in the uk where they have tra iced medical care and they can see the numbers more easily, there have been reports of a 4,000% spike in the referrals of the young biological women to the national gender service for hormones followed by surgical intervention. >> steve: tucker, in that little clip right there, why are so many identifying now as trans? >> well because, of course, there's a lot of encouragement to do that i mean this is being sold on social media, particularly on tik tok and instagram and the rest, as a way of personal liberation and it's a lie and the rest of us have been told to shut up about it
5:54 am
because we're being mean to some oppressed community if we say this. okay. you know, most americans don't care. you want to call yourself whatever you want, you want to dress however you want, most people don't care and don't want to get involved in it. but if they're sending children into irreparable surgeries and castrating them and sterilizing them for life andr then we have a morale obligation to say, no, you're not allowed to do that, that's illegal. we have to ban this. it's one of the worst things that's happened in our life times and the rest has been so intimidated by the screaming of the activists and the highly funded lobbies they have in washington we've let it happen and really have been cowed into silence. you can't do this to kids sorry not allowed. >> brian: two-part series is available when? >> right now on fox nation. >> brian: at this moment. >> although this moment t [laughter]. >> carley: thank you tucker. thank you for waking up early. >> thanks for having me. >> brian: now you don't have to get gq, we gave you the whole story. >> i cancelled my subscription.
5:55 am
>> brian: you might as well even though they give you cologne in the middle. >> steve: sit in that chair you'll be on tv in 11 hours and six minutes. >> carley: long day for you. >> thank you tucker. >> see you. >> carley: now back to our breaking news coverage of buckingham palace revealing doctors are concerned about queen elizabeth health and greg palkot joins us live from london. what's the latest. >> hi folks this is something we really haven't seen in a very long time in this country, a country on edge with this news about the ill health of the queen, the beloved queen elizabeth ii. the word we got from the royal household just about an hour, hour and a half ago was that she is under medical supervision and the critical words, there is concern about her health. she is up at balmoral, that's her scottish estate and that's where we last saw her. in fact she greeted the new incoming prime minister liz truss on tuesday. we all thought she looked pretty good in that picture. but just yesterday she was
5:56 am
forced to cancel a zoom meeting with truss and other government members and that was an indication that there could be something wrong, and then we got this word today. the word is that all of her children are at the estate right now. prince william on his way, all showing concern in the house of commons, we heard from the prime minister and we heard from other officials expressing their concern, the bbc, the state broadcaster here went on a media rolling news about this situation. that's most unusual. she has suffered from mobility issues over the past couple of months but, remember, we saw her at at that jubilee and she looked fantastic. i mean, she got out there and she attended various events including on the balcony of buckingham palace. she is, was at that time, marking her platinum jubilee that is 70 years on the throne. she's the longest-serving
5:57 am
sovereign in the uk, the oldest monarch in the entire world and i've got to tell you, much, much loved. and so there is concern, there is worry, there is fear, and the country right now is on edge, guys. >> brian: is her issue just the fact that she's getting up in years or is there a heart issue or something else that is chronic? >> you know, i've talked to people close to the family and it's a mobility issue. brian, like you, maybe other people that might have a bad knee or something, it's hard for her to get around. but, yes, she is 96 years old. she saw in the past year the passing of her dear husband and others around her, and while she still seems spry and still seems mentally with it, she has difficulty getting around but something might be going -- a turn for the worse right now guys >> steve: and that's why the doctors said they are concerned for her health. greg, you mentioned the jubilee, and we took it all live here on
5:58 am
fox. and one of the most charming things was actually something that she kept hidden from the entire royal family. she actually taped a little skit with paddington bear where she showed, as the rock concert was starting outside buckingham palace, there she was with paddington bear at buckingham palace and she opened up her purse, this is it right here, it's tea time and what does she take out of her purse but a marmalade sandwich. this country loves this queen. >> it shows she has a sense of humor, she is warm, she has emotion, she's seen the country through world wars, difficulties, through family troubles, she's had her ups and downs but she is the rock upon which this entire country rests and upon which this country is now devoting their prayers. >> carley: yeah, greg you are coming to us from london. what are people in the uk right now saying about this?
5:59 am
>> well, the attention, you go on twitter and it's burning up right now with words of deep emotion and deep concern but also deep hope and prayers for everything she has given this country. we've had, remember, liz truss our new prime minister. that is the 15th prime minister she has had in her reign. so politicians come and go but the queen has been there but everybody has their time guys and we're just watching very carefully to see whether this might be the time. >> brian: maybe she has another comeback in her. >> steve: she may be 96 years old but she's been the queen for 70 years. most of the planet has lived on this earth only with queen elizabeth as the queen of england. >> carley: yeah, that's right. >> she's loved by the uk, loved by the world. she traveled the world and seen a multiple, more than a dozen u.s. presidents as well. back to you. >> carley: absolutely. 14 us presidents, seven roman catholic popes i greg palkot
6:00 am
thanks so much from london we'll check in all day. >> steve: we're going to keep an eye on what is going on there in scotland. if you're just joining us, william and charles have rushed to be by the queen's side joined by princess anne already in scotland because queen elizabeth's doctors are concerned for her health. >> carley: that's exactly right. and with that we're going to hand it over to bill and dana on america's news room.3 >> bill: queen elizabeth under medical supervision. her four children have traveled to be with her and we're following the story. a moment of history as we look at her life, as we shall. >> dana: i'm dana perino. we're getting -- the 96-year-old canceled a meeting yesterday. following further evaluation this morning, the queen's doctors are concerned for her majesty's health and have
