5:02 am
in south carolina. not too far from where we are in lexington, south carolina, two hours away. the beaches in south carolina are wonderful because they are flat and big and the sand is hard. when you walk, it is enjoyable and not syncing your feet in the soft sand like the beaches in florida in some areas, at least. even though we do love the state of florida, it will be 77 degrees in hilton head today and such a beautiful place. have you all been there? >> brian: i have not. i got the brochures though and the travel agent later this afternoon. >> carley: well, voted one of the best destinations in the world known for golf courses. brian, you are a good golfer and known for the beaches. i don't know who is responsible but they were not allowed to build signs that are high so starbucks is low to the ground. mcdonald's low to the ground and all beautifully designed. so it just looks really pretty in that area.
5:03 am
>> brian: i have some breaking news. ever when i played golf with call to say i'm not a good golfer. so i want to correct the record. not a good golfer. although you are too nice. >> ainsley: well, i would say you are better than i am. >> brian: maybe not, we will see. >> steve: maybe that is why they call at the low country. ainsley is there and we heard from the owner, it was named one night but apparently there was some scotch consumed. >> ainsley: that is right. when i was coming down here, everyone up north said, "the lizards did it? no, the lizards thicket. a lot of locations around columbia/columbia area how many come regularly? my dad and all of his friends come to those once a week for the breakfast club. >> brian: that is fantastic, and you will be talking about the folks down there
5:04 am
good morning lizards thicket in south carolina on "fox & friend." we are eight days away from the midterms election and cbs today poll and this is really bad news for the democrats. cbs says eight in ten likely voters say the country is out of control rather than in control. and that spells doom some republicans say for democrats coming up. >> i mean if you look at what people will be voting for primarily, become a 28% and combined with inflation over 50% and then far down that list is abortion, gun violence and climate change. when the president comes out he did it for his agenda but not the american people plus the war on fossil fuels is the reason why we are running out of diesel. the reason we have to beg venezuela and iran with deals to
5:05 am
get iran back into the world market. and saudi arabia cuts back to billion barrels and we feel it here. all because the president's decision and he wants to kiss up to the green side of the constituency. hey, if it is popular, he will do good midterms. but by the polls not only did he not stem the red wave, it is re-primed after august. meanwhile, the press secretary doing the best bidding you can imagine trying to say it makes sense why the president's side out there talking about his agenda and past president and vice president president are, listen. >> why is the former president making this case and not the current president? >> i would disagree with that characterization of your question or how it was characterized there. the president has been talking about this almost every day for months now. he has been talking about the choices that are at stake here, which is what i was just talking about moments ago, which is,
5:06 am
what trying to do. the president has been talking about the economy every day. and the things that -- and i want to be careful, president obama so passionately speaks about are the things at stake. but also the work that the president biden and vice president harris have done to get our economy back on its feet for the last 20 months. >> ainsley: obama is campaigning for the democrats more than president biden is because they know that he is not getting many of the votes. people aren't excited to go see joe biden, but obama, they are sending him to georgia. they went to georgia to campaign for stacey abrams and raphael warnock. and then lieutenant governor mandela barnes who is running against ron johnson incumbent and november 5th, visiting pennsylvania. we had senator lindsey graham from the great state of south carolina right here at lizard's thicket this morning.
5:07 am
he came on to talk about if the g.o.p. does sweep, what the agenda would be. listen. >> i think we can be 52 or 53 in the senate and i think we will take the house. we stop all the crazy. the first bill should be secure of the border and the second bill should make people vote on is finding oil and gas that we own so we are energy independent from people who hate our guts. if we have both bodies, we can set the agenda for 2024. we will then met because of the backlash. america will say no to the most radical agenda from the broken border, rampant inflation. here is biden's america you have to mortgage your house to pull up the car at the gas station and you will probably get robbed. that is why we are going to do it. we need to do well big time to change the course of america. >> steve: you know what, the republicans are motivated appear this morning "the washington post" says down in florida the republican party has registered nine, new
5:08 am
republican voters for every one democrat that has been registered since the primary. pharma is no longer the biggest swing state in the union and now trending red. in fact, ron desantis will win miami dade county which has been super blue, which is completely stunning comeback. because four years ago he lost it by 20 points. so now, the red is searching in florida. >> brian: yeah, it is pretty amazing what is happening right now. it is like -- like lindsey graham just said, it is not so much the republicans have the best message. they don't have the democrats message and they refused to pay a bit. barack obama was hanging over the weekend, wait a second, the democrat republicans will take away your medicare and social security. where did that come from? senator braun come across till mike braun scott said we have to
5:09 am
revisit unnecessary spending and almost every responsible person knows this has to happen because we are overdrawn $800 billion on a good day without all the spending from this person named president biden, who is going to be almost nothing. in fact, he is going to new york with a memorial service with eight days to go into an election. that is pretty embarrassing. >> steve: the president is not there campaigning for democrats. the number one topic people were talking about over the weekend, what happened in san francisco. the man accused of attacking paul pelosi with a hammer set to be charged later today. he faces a slew of charges and reportedly had a list of other potential targets. david spunt joins us live with details, david. >> good morning, paul pelosi recovering from a terrible attack early friday morning in san francisco. as you mentioned, there are public reports that the suspect
5:10 am
david depape did not live far from nancy pelosi and had a list of other potential targets. there are other reports according to investigators that the suspect with zip ties plan to tie up mr. pelosi until his wife, the house speaker got home. she was 3,000 miles away in washington, d.c. but this morning and over the weekend and since this happened, both sides of the political aisle are coming together to denounce this attack. listen. >> this is disgusting. this violence is horrible. you know, this has happened and we had a doorknocker photographer that was attacked. this has to stop here and here and speak a white house press press secretary karine jean-pierre connect at the crime to january 6th. >> he was yelling out the things that we heard during january 6, which is where is nancy? and you know, again, we need to end this type of rhetoric.
5:11 am
it needs to stop. before the suspect will face charges of attempted homicide, assault with a deadly abuse, anr additional felonies that may come down on a federal level. how speaker pelosi put out a's statement yesterday morning friday morning, he demanded to confront me and brutally attacked my husband our children, grandchildren or her broken. traumatized by the life-threatening attack. the second in line to the presidency speaker pelosi always travels with a security detail, but not her family appear that may change for family members of congressional leadership after what happened to paul pelosi. after all 435 members in the house and hard to justify security for members, family members of actual members of the house. we will see if that conversation happens as far as the suspect is still in custody and will be officially charged by the district attorney in a few hours
5:12 am
later today. baback to you. >> ainsley: david, thank you so much for that report. our thoughts and prayers are with that family, and i'm glad that you will be okay. let's talk about southern florida, luke bryan scheduled for a performance in september. he had to postpone because of the hurricane. so he went back to florida and performed friday night on stage. he invited ron desantis to come on stage and got a lot of backlash on social media because of this. here is the thing, guys, this is for florida disaster relief. this was to help hurricane victims. people died in the ever again. people lost everything that they owned in the hurricane, and now he's getting backlash for inviting the governor on stage. >> brian: yeah, well, couple of things he was wildly cheered. number two, 50% of the country things or most people think he is one of the most successful governors in the country. 50% would love to have him
5:13 am
minimum governor of his state. why is it that you can watch all of these other stars from bruce springsteen on down to hop on with a democrat and no one is canceling them? and these democrats more or less popular than any republican? luke bryan, here is the governor, trying to rebuild a major city in florida. maybe i can help out. why did he even come out and say this? i understand governor desantis is a very polarizing figure? relief? no, he is a republican with great success and knows not to shut down the state. but a governor to ask you if they can come and raise awareness to help victims, i have generally stayed out of politics throughout my career. i know people would be chattering about this but for me, the important piece if i am going to come back a few weeks after a large portion of people affected by natural disasters in a state where people have been good to me, this felt right. of course, it felt right. it doesn't matter if you are right or left. you should be able to -- dave
5:14 am
matthews appeared with fetterman. i wonder if there was backlash there. doesn't make make sense to you? >> steve: it it is what happens with a conservative politician who appears on stage with somebody. and luke bryan was careful in the beginning when he simply said, "tonight, we will have some fun, raise some money and welcome governor desantis." he was not saying vote for ron desantis. he said, we are going to raise money because 130 people died in that storm. hurricane ian and 50 to $70 billion worth of damage. and luke bryan was simply embracing people to raise money. as you see ron desantis toss out some caps. we had john on an hour ago talking about the hypocrisy of now come on the left trying to cancel luke bryan for reentering the stage for someone who is trying to raise money. listen to this.
5:15 am
>> if this would have been california and a natural disaster and luke bryan did a concert to raise money and governor newsom came out, i don't think anybody would be upset right now. look, he's trying to help the people. but if you do it with the wrong governor, hey, everybody will have a meltdown. it is the hypocrisy of this whole subject, where is bono? where is beyonce? where are the massive artist and why aren't they having a super bowl level comments are in florida? where has that been? i don't see what happened, do you? i see luke bryan out there trying to raise money on his own and only he gets punished for it. no good deed goes unpunished. >> steve: good point. >> ainsley: that is right. luke bryan trying to help people in florida that have lost so much and they need this money that can help them rebuild their homes and help those individuals out. this doesn't have to be a political move. he is the governor of the state. >> brian: ainslie, he should
5:16 am
not have but the statement out. he should not put that statement out. forget what people think. forget about twitter. >> ainsley: i know, and it is just a few people. >> brian: jason l dean, jason l dean, they would probably vote for ron desantis. so what. rob snyder was just here and the comedians feel just like me. he was out in front of 18,000 people thursday night talking about trump in a positive way. talking about the idiocy of what is going on with the policies. you have to show some encouraging in this world. >> ainsley: luke bryan about the majority of the people who listen to him are republicans, don't you think? >> steve: let's see what else happens. nevertheless, we will try to figure out how much money they were able to raise. in the meantime, 8:16 and

5:25 am
speaking to these issues and can bring them in about that change. >> brian: the republicans are not interested in solving problems, but interested in making you angry and finding someone to blame to distract you from the fact they don't have answers. does that sound like the republican party for you? >> i think it is completely the opposite when we look at standing in detroit public school having this conversation. detroit, the latest numbers show detroit lost 30 years of reading progress. the students in detroit are being robbed of an education, and nobody is willing to talk about that. he also talked about crime and stands in the second most violent city in the nation and does not hold gretchen whitmer accountable for anything. gretchen whitmer has not done anything to improve education and taken a drastic turn to the bottom ten information. crime is rising and businesses are leaving the state of michigan. >> brian: tulsi gabbard you must recognize this
5:26 am
governor whitmer, they look at you as a rising star and wanted to get rid of you. but you went anyway. there is a lot at stake for governor whitmer and they never expected tudor dixon to get this close. >> that is right, brian. i think it is interesting to see them play out the same old tactics they have used against me or used against anyone who threatens their stranglehold on power. they refused to have a real substance of policy and hold themselves to accountable. gretchen whitmer hold yourself accountable under her leadership the last board you years. and experiencing the negative effects of her failed leadership and why they are looking for real change in fresh leadership to move forward appearance be when she has a shutdown governor. they really went over the top to shut down businesses and people at schools. tudor your closing argument to close a three-point gap? >> well, the democrats are a

is why the businesses around the world which can go anywhere in the world are coming and investing hundreds of millions of dollars and the people of south carolina to do the work for them. >> ainsley: you are right. there are a lot of people in new york moving to south carolina and coming from other states. how do you handle that? will that change the elections? >> no, i don't think so because the people moving in or coming for the right reasons. they see south carolina that we do things right here. they have seen the biden administration and the successes of the democrat governor and this is the constitution that does not allow the government to take your business away from you to close it down unless there is a good reason. and then they have to pay for it. in these cases around the country except in the red states. the governors are shutting down businesses for no good reason and were not paying anybody anything. those acts are unconstitutional and harmful and go to show when
5:39 am
the federal government is outside of the constitution doing things not supposed to be doing, it pomes the storm every time here that is why we do things right and people notice. >> ainsley: i know you've been on the campaign trail and we wish you all the best. >> thank you. >> ainsley: eight more days, right, governor? getting any sleep? >> a little bit. >> ainsley: good deal. we will talk with wonderful, fine folks living in south carolina and eating breakfast at lizard's thicket coming up crime as the top of mind for many people here in the voters and people in one blue city or taking matters int. how volunteer led group is working to return stolen cars to their rightful owners. i look back with great satisfaction on my 32 years of active duty. i understand the veteran mentality. these are people who have served,
