welcome aboard, folks, for hour two of "fox & friends" live from studio m. here in the heart of midtown, manhattan. >> steve: that kind of music really puts you in the mood. >> ainsley: i'm so excited because i still have a little one she is 7. we talk about santa all the time. i'm waiting on santa to bring all the presents. >> brian: what about for adults? >> ainsley: i have done a lot of shopping the adults in my immediate family said look make it about the kids this year. we're all at an age where we can buy what we want and we don't need anything else. >> brian: send each other links and buy for each other. >> steve: listen, one you have the kids at my house, peter doocy still wants a pony. i hope he is not watching. he is going to get it. >> ainsley: hayden gets $5 for her allowance she does her chores for the week on friday. she said i'm go going to save my allowance for the next few weeks and i want to buy there is this one horse she loves to ride at the stables down at long island. >> steve: my sister always

wanted a pony. >> ainsley: $15. the most expensive sport isn't it equestrian? >> steve: it is but you don't think about that when you are 7. >> ainsley: right. >> steve: welcome to hour two. we have a lot of news. and a lot of news broke at 10:30 in the east coast. >> ainsley: the polls were coming in, numbers were coming. in senator rafael warnock keeps his seat defeating walker in the run off election. >> steve: speech state in the race he won by 3 points almost. >> brian: connell mcshane from atlanta. >> good morning, brian. good morning from polk county, georgia which is where the city of atlanta was located. real there city and suburbs that surround it that was the key to victory for senator warnock last night. supporters coming out in a big way four points better than its margin in the race a month ago. similar in the surrounding counties. you look at those numbers you had up in the race overall. and it was close. what stands out is the turnout was very large for a runoff

election. we have nearly as many voters as we had in the general election, over 3.5 million. you know, warnock in the closing days of his campaign had been talking about his biggest fear being his supporters would hear stories about how he was building up momentum and feel as though their vote wasn't needed now he can rest easy. >> you endured the rain, you endured the long lines. and you voted and you did it because you believe as i do that democracy is the political enactment of a spiritual idea. >> as for herschel walker, the former football star was introduced on stage last night by doug flutie, his teammate years ago on a usfl game the new jersey generals owned by former president trump. walker then delivered a brief concession speech. >> i want to thank all of you as

well because there is no excuses in life. and i'm not going to make any excuses now because we put up one heck of a fight. >> and that is what we got to do because this is much bigger, this is much bigger than herschel walker. >> while, the democrats now expand their senate margin to 51-49 giving them outright control of senate committees. one of the advantages of that is subpoena power. in the power sharing agreement with the senate being 50/50, the democrats needed republican support in order to issue subpoenas. that will no longer be the case. back to you guys. >> brian: they won't have co-chairmans of committees. it's a big deal. thanks so much, connell, big deal, subpoena power, co-chairs, setting agendas, confirming candidates, nominees. so, it seems like in many ways republicans didn't step up for the challenge brian kemp did,

are, lindsey graham, john kennedy and tim scott not much else. >> steve: wasn't enough ultimately to drag him over the line. >> ainsley: complaining about that last night on "primetime" there weren't enough senators or congressman that would go out there and help. do you think it was that or his son coming out publicly and speaking against him? >> steve: the whole family. >> brian: his wife was there with him. he has had one son and ex-wife who he wrote about in his 2007 biography. i'm just wondering who gloria all red got paid from to walk out these people and they just quickly disappeared in the ends never addressed it state that up. people are going to have to reevaluate the whole approach to early voting wind chill approach to drop boxes and everything else. >> steve: absolutely. rain by drizzly day down there. did that impact any republicans who are planning on voting yesterday? don't know. if it's easy and you can do it

early, do it. >> brian: the problem is this election season is an election day and how do you plan a strategy for that when voting goes on for a month? first off, when it comes to the president you have to move your debates to august. voting is going to start in september why have an october debate? >> ainsley: president biden defenders his visit to the border state of arizona without actually going and visiting the southern border when he is there. >> brian: the president says he has more important things to do. >> steve: he told that to peter doocy who is standing on the north side of the white house where he heard that from the president yesterday afternoon at the white house. >> peter: yes, the best way to figure out why the president never goes to the border is to ask him. that is what we did here. >> mr. president, why go to a border state and not visit the border? >> because there are more important things going on. we invest billions of dollars in new enterprise. >> steve: the border patrol union says visiting ice cream shop very important.

visiting our border where illegal immigration, deaths escapes and fentanyl, not important. the event he was referring to was very important. he was tout ago $40 billion investment to make microchips in the u.s. so the u.s. is less reliant on taiwan and china. however, if in the state he visited, arizona, we have got these photos of illegals and minors being smuggled in tucson and then we have got more photos. this one is a 440 million fentanyl pills in nogales and that is a big problem the way that former trump advisers see things. >> they support unlimited immigration into this country. they believe fundamentally as a philosophic matter that americans aren't up to it. americans can't cut it. the american middle class is no good. its values are useless, history useless, explorations mean nothing to them. the dirt that you walk on the ground. >> peter: after my very, very

brief q and a from the president i heard from white house officials who had are basically explaining why he thinks like that. they are saying his top priority is the economy and they think that they are backed up by that with recent polling around the midterms that the economy is the number one issue for voters, if the president only has a day, only has a couple hours. he has to pick. the event he is going to do is focus on the economy which is what happened yesterday. back to you. >> steve: peter, were you surprised that the president gave that answer? you have asked him questions before, and he said things like well, we can walk and chew gum at the same time. it seems like he would have a lot of nonanswers he could have used. buff the answer he gave has ignited a firestorm. >> peter: not necessarily surprised because we haven't seen him go to the border yet. and if he was ambiguous we might have crews out there waiting at the border oh is he going to sneak by and talk to some folks at cbp station?

so he is trying to explain his policies. and the way that he is laying things out, moving forward, there is no reason to go to the border unless that becomes the number one issue for voters which they don't see it as. >> steve: not for a couple of years. >> ainsley: you are right. by him not going shows it's not important to him. to hear him say it just confirms it. >> right. something we hear from the press secretary a lot. they think the trips to the border are a political stunt. there are a lot of folks that disagree in border states. democrats and republicans. but they think that a trip just down there is a photo op. and a stunt. and this is not something that we have seen them do so far. >> ainsley: they also say the border is secure and they say republicans don't have a plan and they do. >> brian: when you show up after a hurricane when you just show up. >> steve: photo op. >> brian: you are there showing support or are you actually

eyeballing the problem in ballard fence is very effective. this opening is not as effective. when you go to cbp and see everybody standing in cells to protect them from men or who might or may not be sexual predators and when they are overflown then you go into a tent area and see a bunch of people standing there, that's not a f.o.p photo op. that's not a political stunt. >> >> ainsley: if that's the situation give them money, help them. >> brian: we have nowhere to put these people. since you took over, mr. president, 4 million have come through. we have to green light them. i'm one of the people who caught 17 would be people on the terror watch list. i'm really concerned about that. is that a political stunt? if the president wants to make the economy number one, no one is going to argue with that instrument ever heard of number two or ever heard of 1 a being the economy and 1 b being the border? the whole thing is an insult. i'm sure ron klain probably recoiled at the president of the united states saying that because he created more problems. only on this network. you flip around, they don't

bring up the border anywhere. >> ainsley: won in arizona by saying making this an issue for them. >> brian: senator kelly went down there. >> steve: they had had a choice, obviously. one of the reasons joe biden doesn't want to go down and look at the border because he would see with his own two eyes what is going on. 2.4 million people came across in the last year alone. and the border communities are overwhelmed in el paso they have had to declare an emergency, a state of emergency. there were close to 1,000 migrants who died in that river trying to come across. and then you look at the strange social services systems all across america. including way up here in new york city, and washington, d.c., joe biden doesn't want to see that with his own two eyes because then he would realize, wait a minute, there's a real impact to these decisions. >> ainsley: we interviewed sheriff mark lamb, he represents pinal county. when you hear the president say there are more important things they consider that a slap in the

face. listener. >> this administration is not committed to protecting our borders. to the contrary, can you clearly see they just don't care. and more -- their policies are actually contributing to this. and they have to know that this isn't by ignorance or by accidents or incompetence. this is on purpose. and so, are our deputies know this. but you know what? we have good men and women just like the border patrol does on the line level that put on that badge every day that go out and are committed to protecting our communities. unprecedented amounts of people. unprecedented amounts of fentanyl coming into this country. the slavery is increasing every day in this country. and it is all happening right at the southern border. and for the president to say they have more important things than that, is really a slap in the face to the american people. >> brian: they don't mind doing it. they keep ignoring it and the election didn't make them pay the price. there you go. henry cuellar the only democrat i know stood up and said the border was a problem and kept his seat though. >> steve: it would be nice if the president showed some compassion regarding what is going on on our southern border.

>> ainsley: it would. the walmart ceo on another network and being interviewed and said some shocking things. >> we all shop at walmart. we love walmart. apparently theft has become a major issue. forbes is estimating even though walmart did not confirm this, that they have lost $3 billion a year due to thefts. >> steve: woe. >> ainsley: yeah. they are saying if they can't get this under control, then they might have to close some stores. listen to the walmart ceo. >> yeah. theft is an issue. it's higher than what it has historically been. we have got safety measures, security measures. >> does that matter. >> if it's not corrected over time prices will be higher and/or stores will close. >> and the national retail federation said that theft rose to $85 billion in 2 2021, and organized retail crime is up 26%. it was just yesterday on this channel where we were running the video of the man in his 80's who was working there at that home depot. and this guy, has a cart full of

stuff is he walking out with he shoves the old man, old man hits his head and he just died. we are not just talking about theft, we are talking about people whose personal security in that case the guy died over it. but there are certain instances, prince in pennsylvania, where one gas station owner, you know, weighs so so sick and tired of the store being vandalized and, in fact, at his place, they even stole his atm, his car was vandalized. he had had enough, is he hiring essentially military grade security to try to keep the peace at his place. >> ainsley: is that the soundbite we have here? this is chief andrew boyer. he represents pennsylvania state security protecting this gas station. >> we are pennsylvania state agents. we are different from security. security guards are the guys who stand at the door or stand around and walk through the mall, when something goes down, they pick up their cell phones and call 911. that's not going to happen with

us. we take action. we can make a e. arrests. and that's what is going to happen if that person with my client commits a crime. he or she is going to get arrested. and i have to use force, i will use force. for this owner, the last straw was when he got hit three weeks ago, pulled up to the front of the gas station and got out, walked in, with a hand cart, picked up his atm machine, mack machine went outside and drove off like it was nothing. >> brian: unbelievable. >> ainsley: d.a.s so woke they have lenient policies and they don't lock you up and these criminals know it. >> steve: what you said was right. when we were watching that ainsley said will you rob a place if a guy like that was standing there? yesterday we were talking to one of the arrested arrested man fro how so many people the threshold

for a felony used to be if you would steal anything more than $1,000. they raised that to -- he either said 10 or $20,000. you can clean out a whole store for 10 or 20,000 bucks. >> ainsley: these reporters went to the walmart in the l.a. area, went to all of them. and the pharmacies and beauty products things more expensive when you try to buy a raiser you have to go and get someone or batteries go and get someone. takes 20 minutes, in a hurry. have to come a key. all because of all these thefts. they said in l.a., in that area you have to actually physically walk into a partitioned area. an area of the store. then you have to pay for it within that partition then can you walk out through a narrow exit. >> steve: it's a good idea. >> ainsley: robberies and arrests only up 2.7% in this area. blaming the d.a. george gascon. >> brian: go over to carley shimkus who has the other news.

>> carley: i certainly do. today, marks 81 years since the japanese bombed pearl harbor resulting in the united states joining world war ii. expected to draw a handful of survivors from the attack. the navy and national parks service will hold a moment of silence at 7:55. the moment the japanese assault began. approximately 2400 american service members lost their lives in the strike. police are asking for the public's help in looking for five suspects who were accused of choking and drag ago won in a are brooklyn subway station. officers say she was just sitting on a bench when they grabbed her. there is this as well. the criminal career being accused of killing two people and hurting a 96-year-old bystander in a shooting spree that sparked a citywide manhunt has reportedly been in trouble with the law since he was just 12 years old. the "new york post" reports sundance oliver, that's his name, has been a one man career

he got rid of her. she went from supervising 200 prosecutors to supervising one secretary. and simply because of the fact that she told him the truth and he didn't like it. >> steve: well, you know, eric, the people of los angeles county got a choice. there was a recall election and he dodged a bullet. >> well, there was never an election for the recall. they actually never made it. >> steve: it was a petition. >> right. so, you know, and that is still being litigated. the reality is we have a d.a. right now who not only ignores the law but uses the office of the district attorney to advance his political ideology while ignoring all the state law of california. >> steve: here is something else that a lot of people don't realize, apparently prosecutors in l.a. county will now have to weigh the effects that charging decisions will have on the status of suspects, particularly if they are immigrants because

they have got to decide okay, are we going to charge them? are we going to give them diversion? what is this about? >> basically since the late 1970s, los angeles has always had a pretty humane way of dealing with our immigrant population. that was really to encourage immigrant communities to cooperate with law enforcement. so we have always had that pretty progressive, i think, humane and good public safety way of dealing with our immigrant populations. but, this new policy takes it to a new ridiculous level. and i will give you one great example, okay? i think we should all agree that if you use a gun in a crime, you need to be held accountable for using that gun. >> steve: absolutely. >> under d.a. gascon's policies, if you use a gun and you are here illegally, you will be treated differently. you will be held less accountable than someone who is here legally.

francey hakes is here to weigh in. >> good morning, ainsley. how are you? >> ainsley: good morning. we are doing well. you hear the emotion in the police chiefs voissments he says he has daughters. we know there is national attention on this case. they know that they need to try their hardest to find a suspect in this case because it's getting so much attention and we all want that. but, parents have the right are they able to hire an attorney that could through freedom of information requests or through other avenues get information from the police? >> yeah, ainsley, i certainly have tremendous empathy for to understand why they are frustrated and even angry and why they feel like they want to do something themselves because it seems as though the investigation is goings nowhere. they can certainly hire a lawyer. i think it's a good idea. i think it's always a good idea to have a lawyer to represent your rights to make sure that you are getting everything you are entitled to. but, with respect to freedom of information act, they are just not going to get anything that's going on in the investigation while the investigation is

ongoing. they are simply not entitled to it. i feel terrible for the family. i'm not sure it's going to get them what they hope, at least at this point. >> ainsley: this is what the father said, kaylee's father said. they messed up a million times but they don't get to say that because what experience does he have. he doesn't know. he is just a dad who woke up one day and had his life turned upside down. what what do you make of that? >> well, i understand what he is saying, the thing is everyone is kind of an amateur detective today, right? the police are being judged by all the true crime aficionados out there who do have a lot of knowledge now based on other high profile cases. and they can't understand why this case hasn't been solved. unfortunately, the crime scene was reportedly just a disaster. and it's a very complicated case when you are talking about college students who all went home almost immediately after this happened. no eyewitnesses. no video cameras. it's a really tough scene and

it's going to be a tough crime to solve. it's going to take tips from the public. someone who knows the offender, someone who sees the offender's behavior that changed either right before or right after the crime so they can judge that the person has done something. are they missing clothing? is their favorite jacket gone because it might have had blood covering it? those are things that the police want to know and i hope people are calling in tips. >> steve: yes or no, will they find the suspect? >> that's a tough one. i think they will eventually, yes. >> ainsley: thank you so much. it's great to see you. thank you, ainsley, you too. >> ainsley: top executive with ties to the fbi for apparently vetting the twitter files. congressman jim jordan is calling for executives to testify and he joins us next. ♪ if you have heart failure, entrust your heart to entresto. entresto helps improve your heart's ability to pump blood to the body. don't take entresto if pregnant; it can cause harm or death to an unborn baby.

that that's a hack and leak operation from the lution russians. and which we knew wasn't. and then, of course now he is doing this over last week and of course he was fired yesterday. so, i just -- this just shows big tech, big media, big government working together to keep information from we, the people. that's the problem. what i'm committed to doing, what the members of the republican members on the judiciary committed to do is get into the fbi's role in all of this. those weekly briefings they were doing with big tech on the heels of that letter from 451 former are officials who said it was a russian disinformation. bologna, they knew it was bologna, yet they were doing these briefings, that's the big problem. >> brian: he got fired. why was he there to begin with. mueller all over the mullen and durham report and is he a disgrace. we all know that except for the fbi and minnesota of the democrat organs testimony cnn

and msnbc. why weighs up there until until sunday and was he able to work with cyber contacts and legal knowledge to somehow suppress things permanently? >> i mean, we don't know. we hope not. we want to get all the facts out there because the more the facts get out there the better we have -- the better chance we have of making sure this doesn't happen in the future. but you are exactly right. this jim baker is all over everything. is he the one that sussmann came to initially on the file alpha back. he knew sussmann, he was hillary clinton's lawyer he is all over the durham investigation. this guy has got connections throughout this. we will just have to wait and see what bari weiss and others uncover and what elon musk continues to release. >> brian: jim, whether they come out, matt taibbi says he doesn't see any government involvement with the twitter and the "new york post" story and the account being frozen and laptop being looked at as russian disinformation. to government involvement. can you echo that? >> i mean, maybe not direct but we will see.

but, certainly indirect, they are briefing everybody on -- went from, you know, months to every week they were doing and in the run up to the most important elections we have. never forget, this brian, my colleague said it best in committee a few months ago, but when is the fbi just going to stay out of elections? in 2016 they spied on president trump's campaign. 2018 was the mueller investigation. 2020 they were doing these briefings to suppress the hunter biden story that led to the suppression ever the hunter biden story. 2022, 91 days before the election, they raid president trump's home. a couple weeks ago, three days after president trump announces he is running for the white house in 2024 they name a special counsel who going to harass him for the next two years. maybe it would be nice if they just let we the people. let the american people decide who we want to be president. who we want representing us in the united states congress, just let the people decide, stay out of it for goodness sake. >> brian: remember, eric holder, fast and fewer users campaign, putting guns into mexico. well the atf is set to destroy those guns associated with the

obama era fast and furious scandal. are you okay with that? >> heck no. and i doubt that brian terry's family is okay with it, either. i mean, remember what they did here, too. sold guns to known straw purchasers, they had this crazy idea we are going to track guns and figure out the bad guys who are doing. this what wound up happening is bad guys got ahold of those guns and terry lost his life a brave border patrol agent. there is a criminal case going on as we speak in mexico related to this crazy fast and furious idea that the obama-biden administration undertook a few years ago. i think you can keep the evidence just to make sure the people who are accountable for this are held accountable. >> brian: jim jordan, thanks so much. appreciate it? >> you bet, thank you. >> brian: go over to carley shimkus for the other breaking news. >> carley: tennessee police stopping a robbery from a nashville shopping mall on saturday. one jewelry store clerk calling police after a masked robber

ransacked the store stealing diamonds and escaping into a van. not before being spotted by an undercover police officer. one suspect pepper sprayed an employee while another fought an officer attempting to grab his gun. four suspects were arrested. police are still searching for that fifth remaining suspect. the trump organization was found guilty of criminal tax fraud in new york yesterday. the former president's company convicted on 17 charges, including tax fraud, falsifying business records, and conspiracy. trump releasing a statement in response to the conviction that reads in part: it is a continuation of the greatest political witch-hunt in the history of our country. new york city is a hard place to be trump as businesses and people flee our once great city. listen to this a virginia restaurant refusing to certain a christian conservative group over its views on abortion and traditional marriage. the family scheduled event at

metzger bar and buechery canceled by the restaurant an hour and a half before restaurant insists always prided itself being inclusive environment for people to dine in. the restaurant's intolerance towards certain people is, quote, disgusting. that's how that story is shaping up, janice. downstairs to you. >> janice: very warm temperatures for the south and gulf coast all the way up to the east coast. 56 now in new york. then we have got that cold air moving in from canada, artic air mass pushing notice towards the northern plains. now, showers and thunderstorms stretching from texas all the way through the mississippi, the tennessee river valley northeast. you know there is going to be flight delays and cancellations there is the rain to come for some of these areas already received a couple inches of rainfall. then for the northeast, today is going to be the messiest day as we get into thursday and friday, a better day but then another

round of storms come in for the weekend. so, much of the country into this active weather pattern. can you see the difference between the very cold air and then the very warm air across the south. and we actually could see some severe storms on monday, including tornadoes. that's going to be a big story. but look at the air travel statistics. over 1,000 routes, planes on route and then we have over 400 delays. 25 cancellations, your worst airports are los angeles and then looks like delta, united and sky west. so you know what they say, call ahead and make sure you are on top of it because we are definitely going to see delays that happens here in the northeast. you have got that ripple effect across the country. fox weather.com keep you up to date. brian kilmeade over to you. >> brian: all right. thanks so much. meanwhile, coming up, alec baldwin of all people honoring harry and meghan glitzy new york city gala last night. this ahead of their release of netflix docuseries nobody wants to see. douglas murray, we want to see him.

baldwin who certainly knows a thing or two about controversy. watch. >> i think they have an audience. whenever have you an audience for something that's great. i have dozens of projects i want to do. many projects i want to do documentary. and good for them that they have an audience on netflix which is the audience. >> ainsley: comes as the british royal family elm are braces for netflix series set to drop tomorrow. fox news contributor and u.k. native douglas murray joins us now. good morning, douglas. >> good morning. new york native but i will take that. >> ainsley: you are an american now, right? you live in america but you are originally from the u.k. what are your thoughts about all of this? are you going to be watching the netflix documentary? >> it's amazing, isn't it? let's just run this through. bobby kennedy's daughter, who was married to the disgraced former governor of new york.

>> ainsley: andrew cuomo. >> gets alec baldwin, who last year accidentally shot a woman to death, who is married to himself to a woman who claims to be hispanic and isn't, have given an award for prince and his wife who made v. made totally false allegations of racism. it's like a sort of moral awards ponzi scheme, isn't it? nothing in this whole thing is true or good or recognizable being an award. it's quite amazing. >> steve: iamazing. they have the netflix series that comes out. as you know as well the palace, apparently, according to what i read on daily mail is bracing for this book called "spare" that's coming out. how do you, douglas, square what they have done with their notoriety and leveraged it? is it to make money or set the record straight or what?

>> it's a very sad story really. because prince harry had a difficult childhood. signed up for the army. served in average. became really popular with the british public and i think publics around the world. married a woman hot public had enormous love for at the beginning until she tried to do to the royal family what she had already done to her own family and to tear it apart. she has made totally erroneous allegations against the royal family. she now complains as does harry the people in britain don't like them all that much. no, people didn't really appreciate the two of them attacking the royal family when the duke of edinboro was dying or when the queen was dying trying to make money off of them while saying how much they dislike the institution and now telling lie after lie. we have just seen the trailer for the netflix show and the trailer is filled with lies. as for the book, "spare" it's called. it seems that the main problem

that harry and meghan come across the discovery that there is a hierarchy in the royal family. that's one of the complaints. who could have expected a hierarchy in the royal family? how many years did it take them to work this out? i mean, this is not just a pair of my eats. pair of people deranged in their pursuit of the royal family and desire to defame them. quite terrible. >> steve: that's why it's called "spare" he is way back in the pack of succession. thank you very much, mr. murray for joining us live. >> it's a pleasure. >> steve: all right, ainsley, look what is coming up. >> ainsley: kari lake, clay travis and tucker carlson is going to be here. ♪
