welcome to "fox & friends" on a tuesday. >> ainsley: good morning to you. thank you so much for waking up. we have one more hour. >> brian: we are assuming they woke up. if you are up in the person sleeping with you, who i assume you know, is asleep, wake them up. >> steve: don't you think if they are watching the tv that the tv volume would wake them up? >> ainsley: not necessarily. i can sleep through a tv. can you? >> steve: nope. >> ainsley: i know you're used to getting up at 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning and kathy is still asleep. do you go into the den to watch tv? >> steve: on saturday and sunday morning i get up early, which is 6:00, and i go into the living room and i play wordle. >> ainsley: do you really? i need to start playing that. >> steve: and i reach out to ted and i ask what today's start word. today our start word was "ocean." >> brian: what you do with that, i don't know. i've never played it.

>> steve: it's fun. >> brian: "the new york times" bought it, right? >> steve: they did, and it's one of the main reasons people go to their website. >> ainsley: candidates in three pivotal races are getting ready to square off in the debate stage. >> steve: all eyes are on pennsylvania, new york state, and michigan as polls show that in some cases the contests are so close they could go either way. >> brian: griff jenkins has promised to watch and review. hey, griff. >> rise and shine, sleepy heads. 14 days to go. good morning, three big critical debates tonight. let's start in the keystone state where fetterman is already lowering expectations, saying this in a campaign memo. "let's be clear about this match up. dr. oz has been a professional tv personality for the last two decades. this is not john's format. look no further than the debates from the primary this year. if we are being honest, oz clearly comes into tuesday night with a huge built-in advantage.

fetterman will be using closed captioning and he comes into tonight's debate leading dr. oz in the real clear politics average." but oz says his opponents policies are simply out of touch. watch. >> magic want to do anything he wanted to, his goal would be to release murderers from life in prison. releasing murderers from life in prison without asking the families what they think, and oftentimes voting against the other members of the parole board in line with democrats is not aligned with the values of pennsylvania. yet, that's the position he has taken. >> this, as the races for the governor's mansion in new york and michigan are tight. kathy hilger leading lee zeldin by some six points, and only three points between governor gretchen whitmer and challenge her tudor dixon. meanwhile, specs lived in the sunshine state. watch this.

>> i have a question for you. you're running for governor. why don't you look in the eyes of the people of the state of florida and say to them if you are reelected that you will serve a full 4-year term as governor. yes or no? will you serve a full 4-year term if you are elected governor of florida? it's not a tough question. >> we do not agree on the candidates asking each of the questions. governor, it is your turn. >> i know charlie is interested in talking about 2024 and joe biden, but i want to make things very clear that the only old, worn out donkey i'm looking to put out to pasture is charlie crist. >> both president biden and former president barack obama will campaign for fetterman late in the race. we'll see what happens. >> brian: he's going to need some help. joe biden wasn't much help plastic by himself, the kind of stayed away from each other. thanks, griff. >> ainsley: so they are bringing out their biggest

assets. >> brian: i'm sure barack obama is the draw himself. they want to make -- they don't want to make them look bad. and the president can't get a crowd. spew and keep in mind they are bringing out joe biden and also barack obama. now that the democrats aren't pivoting toward actually talking about the economy, rather than pretending. as i said yesterday, i saw the catch up at a grocery store and it was $8 a bottle. rather than talk about the economy, now they will talk about the economy. there are so many jobs out there, do you want a job to make their jobs for everybody. that's the message. >> ainsley: even when he ordered breakfast as a team, the prices have gone up significantly. we are feeling that effect all over the country. >> brian: right. this has been the same thing, the economy has been number one or number two switching places

with inflation for the last month, and the administration, and the democrats keep talking about abortion rights and january 6th. they are now just waking up because the tsunami seems re-primed. one of those moments that stood out last night between charlie crist and ron desantis, it looks like governor desantis got a ten-point lead peer one of the controversial things that he did, it paid off republicans and for the country, because it brought a spotlight to illegal immigration. people like griff jenkins, bill melugin, and everyone on our channel have been highlighting it for the past two years, because we have set all types of breach records because of the negligence from this administration. that was one of the subjects of contention last night. let's listen. >> i thought what the governor did was a horrible political stunt. we have an immigration problem. we have a problem of the border. we need to secure the border. i agree with all of that. but it doesn't mean that you use florida taxpayer dollars to

charter two jets, go to texas, lie to people to get them onto planes and fly the move to the northern part of our country. >> you say you are for the secure border but this is happening under the biden administration and the policies that charlie crist supports. we had millions and millions of people poured in across illegally. we've had record numbers of fentanyl come in. we now see it ravaging our communities like never before. i didn't hear people like charlie expressing outrage about that. >> steve: as you talk about ron desantis sending those migrants up to martha's vineyard, telemundo did a poll yesterday and showed that charlie crist is tailing substantially when it comes to latino voters. in particular, they asked hispanic voters, what do you think of ron desantis sending people to martha's vineyard? 50% of hispanic voters, half the people responding, approved of it.

40% said they disapprove of it. for the most part -- and, brian, you are absolutely right, the real clear politics average shows ron desantis up by 10. last night i don't think charlie crist laid a glove on him. ctv has a comfortable lead and he says he's going to restart those flights by december, sending the migrants to other parts of the country. they also talked about the pandemic. i thought this was interesting. charlie crist is one of the 13 florida democrats that sent a letter to ron desantis in march of 2020 asking them to issue a stay-at-home order for everyone in the state. desantis said the nation report cards that florida is number three in fourth grade reading and number four in fourth grade math, and that wouldn't have happened if we let charlie crist lock our kids out of schools. we did it right in florida. >> brian: guess who else is doing it right? governor ducey saw the huge gaps in the fence that we paid for but they didn't want to build because donald trump wanted to build it, and he said, "i'm not

going to wait for the next election. i'm going to get these huge shipping containers and pile them up on each other and they will be able to funnel would-be immigrants or deter would-be immigrants before they get through." guess what? the federal government says that's trespassing, pull them down. so governor ducey decides to double down and he is adding to his makeshift border wall, and cary lake weighed in on what she would do if she replaces governor ducey. >> what we are going to do is go to the u.s. constitution, article one, section ten. we have an invasion on our border, within the first hour of my administration will issue a declaration of invasion. >> steve: that's one of the issues that a lot of channels didn't cover for years. even doing it here at fox and it wasn't until governor abbott down in texas started sending migrants to new york, washington, chicago, places like that. people are talking about that,

and not only the border, but inflation, obviously. they are talking about crime. if lee zeldin does win in new york, it'll be because of the crime situation. kathy hochul saw a poll over the weekend that showed lee zeldin was actually beating her. what does she do? the next day she comes out with a commercial on how she is so tough on crime, and what she said is that we need to add 1200 overtime shifts the daily, and add 50 psychiatric beds. >> ainsley: then why hasn't she done it yet? >> steve: exactly p lee zeldin said we don't need more overtime because the officers are working away too along. we need more cops, and we don't need 50 more psych ward beds, we need 5,000. we haven't heard her say he's absolutely right. although there are a lot of people walking the beat who would say he is right, we need more cops. >> ainsley: i remember years ago we had rudy giuliani on the show and when i moved to

new york everyone said he was the one who cleaned up new york. the squeegee guys who would come up to your car. why would they do? >> steve: when you are stopped at a light on the major thoroughfare they would start squeegeeing your window, not necessarily with clean l water. >> ainsley: and you never asked them to do it. they just started to do it. anyway, they said rudy giuliani cleaned it up, and he was on our show, and he said we had a policy that any homeless person on the streets of new york, my police officers had to go and help them and put them in a shelter. so they cleaned up the homeless problem. talk to anyone now who goes on the subway, no one feels safe riding the subway here. we see all the crime. we report on it almost daily. but even if nothing happens to you, you always see someone homeless sleeping on the subway or someone who's crazy, who is screaming at someone for no reason. >> brian: bill de blasio disbanded the homeless and unit.

they said no everyone by name and other problems. they are disbanded, so they are just left there. if you are serious about cracking down on crime, commissioner bratton and kelly would do anything you want to let you know how they did it. and they are available. if he was serious, if she was serious, they would both called. >> ainsley: she has had a chance. >> brian: she's totally awful. >> steve: they would do something about no cash bail. that's the single dumbest thing democrats sit across the country and now they are paying for it. >> ainsley: why they would ever think that's okay is beyond any of us. let's hand it over to carley. >> carley: a new report from pennsylvania lawmakers accuses philadelphia district attorney larry krasner and his policies of "contributing to a catastrophic rise in violent crime," but he says the problem is nationwide. >> it's seem old playbook, which is about coded and racist

♪ ♪ >> brian: the house progressive caucus backtracking after asking president biden to begin negotiating a cease-fire in ukraine. really? after urging him to "pursue a proactive diplomatic push." in a rare follow-up, the clock is led by a squad member clarified, "we are united as democrats and our unequivocal commitment to supporting ukraine in a fight for democracy. to support president biden in his administrations commitment to nothing about ukraine without ukraine." retired navy seal, commander, and former interior secretary ryan zinke's newly created congressional seat in the first district, a tough fight there. you know about sites. at this time we should tell ukraine to negotiate with russia or we should do it directly?

>> it's amazing, brian, that the democratic party has become a party of abandonment. they have no plan. they are clueless. it's like rats leaving a sinking ship with biden. you look at abandonment, they've abandoned our troops, they've abandoned their principles, they've abandoned god and our kids at school, they've abandoned our environment by allowing our forests to burn up, and they have no plan. they have zero plan on the economy, they had zero plan on what we are going to do about ukraine. just send more money that's needed at home overseas. they are truly a party of abandonment. >> brian: do you see an opportunity to crush the russian military who has been exposed as totally inept and under-financed? without spilling american blood. don't you? >> russa has exposed themselves, at least their lack of ability to reject conventional power. remember, this is not a foreign

shore like we did in afghanistan. this is more or less an adjacent territory. they should have ripped through ukraine, which is probably in the top 20 of military forces in the world. it's not pakistan and it's not india. we have seen their failure. but remember, putin does have nuclear weapons, and to embarrass putin and rub it in his face, back and forth, it may have consequences, but this is administration has no plan. they never had a plan in the beginning. only that we were not going to use military force, and that goes back to their dismal failure in afghanistan, and we are facing the same thing with china in the pacific. >> brian: congressman, you're in a tough fight to get that seed and go back to congress. because you have a libertarian candidate a and a democrat to rn against. what's the difference in the next 15 days? >> i think it's the vision of

two distinctly different visions for america. we are on the side of freedom and making sure the energy costs drive back down, make sure we curb inflation, and spending. and it's open-ended almost on. my opponent lost 133 trillion, with a t, loves taxes, et cetera, and they are using a libertarian candidate as a wedge. they are supporting a libertarian candidate who is really liberal. believe it or not, a libertarian candidate that doesn't believe in borders, and is set on military being turned into hamburger. it is really quite amazing. this is the playbook they use. they use it across the country. >> brian: but you have trained to be resourceful in times of tension and stress. it's hard to bet against the navy seal down the stretch. former interior secretary ryan zinke, thanks so much. best of luck. >> brian:

opponents. and how under joe biden it has gotten even worse. i've got to say, for the people who watch "the view," that was a perspective they hadn't heard before. there's another exchange that i had with whoopi where she was attacking republicans with the obsession of the media. she was screaming about january 6th, saying, "you guys are all violent," and she said, "our side doesn't engage in violence." i just had to laugh. did you miss an entire year of antifa riots across the country where our cities were burning? and she looked at me and said, "i don't know of any entity for the riots." that really says something. see when so many people today are in the silo and they only hear one side, so i appreciate you going in and trying to educate that other side to what's going on. i'm kind of curious.

sexually assaulted in the bathroom by a boy wearing a skirt. after that happens, you would expect the school district comeo come down and prosecute the sexual predator. instead they transferred him to another school. they insisted it never happened, they transferred him to another school, and that predator attacked and sexually assaulted another little girl. at the school board meeting that followed that, the parents of that 14-year-old girl came in and they were upset, understandably upset, and then they were infuriated because the school board was so concerned with their political ideology, they said it never has happened that a boy dressed as a girl has committed sexual assault. and the father in particular was yelling and said, "my daughter was raped at your school, in your care, and you're not doing a thing about it." they didn't call the police on the criminal, they called the police on the dad. they arrested him and threw him to the ground, handcuffed him, and after that, as you will

recall, the national association of school boards sent a letter to the biden administration saying, "please target parents who go to school boards, target them as domestic terrorists under the patriot act." six days later, the attorney general merrick garland directed the fbi to go after parents, go after americans, go after biden's political enemies. it also tells the inside story of january 6th, what really happened. this brings you behind the curtain to let you know what happened. >> steve: it's available wherever you buy books. today it comes out.

♪ ♪ >> steve: president biden raising eyebrows this election season over divisive catchphrases, mostly attacking republicans. super republicans. >> republicans are doubling down on the mega-maga trickle down that benefit the very wealthy. >> the extreme maga or pelicans have chosen to go backwards. >> imagine what it would mean if republicans had their way. look, the ultra maga republicans -- >> under my predecessor, the great maga king -- >> steve: but will that kind of messaging work with voters? the author of this joins us now. good morning to you. clearly what they are trying to do, the democrats tried to figure out how to put donald trump on the ballot, so when joe biden refers to the "mega-maga" republicans, he's trying to say, "hey, remember

donald trump? you vote for a republican, you wind up with trump." >> i think the part of that that was particular interesting was the reference to "mega-maga trickle-down economics." he's actually mixing metaphors. the new right, the mega-maga right, was very different from the reaganite conservatives when it came to issues. so it's funny, this is how you can see that biden and the democratic party are flailing ahead of this election. not even criticizing trump on his own terms, but trying to retrofit trump into a vision of conservatism that many reaganite classical conservatives wish trump fit. ironically, he doesn't even fit that she. the analysis of what that even against is coming apart at the seams. >> steve: it is coming apart, and when you look at the latest polls, it looks as if the republicans have overtaken the democrats in a lot of key spots because the democrats have been beating the drum ever since the dobbs decision regarding

abortion. so rather than talk about inflation or economics, they are talking about abortion, and now suddenly joe biden is going out and talking about economics because that's what everybody is hurting over. >> it's a lose-lose dilemma. at the end of the day, if you talk about where we are in economics, the policies of the last couple years have intact created many of the difficult circumstances we now face. a double whammy of inflation requiring rising interest rates to fight that inflation, but i like the era where you had rising interest rates to fight inflation, deregulation of favorable tax policy. right now we have a double whammy of rising interest rates that cool the economy against the backdrop of actually business unfriendly public policies, as well. that does not help biden. it is different than volker raising rates against the backdrop of reaganite pro-market policies, and we are going to be in for an era of hardship over the next couple of years, including economic hardship that i hope we are able to learn

from. >> steve: meanwhile, you would like people to landry organization, strive asset management. here's a clip, keeping culture wars out of the company. >> we choose to go to the moon and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard. we will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills. >> it is the mind of man, free to invent, free to dream, that will shape the world of the future. >> steve: make it simple, keep politics out of companies' policies. >> exactly. our point is that you don't just vote every november, you vote every day with your investment dollars. our view is the message we are delivering with investment dollars that we manage for our clients is that companies should focus on excellence, not on politics. excellence can actually be unifying. hiring should be based on merit,

not race or sex or politics or sexual orientation. companies should focus on great products and profits, not on divisive politics. i hope that's a nonpartisan message that can bring us together whether we are black or white, democrat or republican. we are stronger when our companies are focused on what they are supposed to focus on, and that is the message we are delivering as a shareholder, hopefully representing the voices of many americans incorporate american boardrooms. that's the campaign we are launching today. >> steve: it's unique. thank you very much, and good luck on the campaign. >> thank you. >> steve: stepping aside, back in a couple. you are watching "fox & friends." >> tech: at safelite, we take care of vehicles with the latest technology. when my last customer discovered a crack in his car's windshield, he scheduled at safelite.com.
