♪ ♪ oh, everybody's dreaming big. rachel: good morning, everybody. it's 8:00 a.m., and that is my big nightmare, which we just experienced in the last break. i went out there and did it anyway. pete: i think they go up there and they lay the eggs up there. you open little door and pull the eggs out of the thing --
5:01 am
rachel: my husband is advocating for me to get a chicken coop because we eat a lot of eggs. eggs are what people eat when meat is too expensive, now eggs are too expense i. a lot of people doing what we just saw out there, renting a chicken and a coop. will: one of the things i'm good at -- can. rachel: making eggs somehow to you like your eggs? will: i like variety. i'm off of scrambled. i like a sunny side egg off of toast, i like poached. rachel: i like poached. will: i'm like the guy from forest gump, bubba -- [laughter] pete: i like over medium, not too the runny, a lot of seasoning on it. a little cheese -- rachel: what kind of seasoning? pete: various kinds that i've acquired from this show over the years. [laughter] i couldn't tell you what they are, but i use them.
5:02 am
will: not too runny. pete: not too runny. will: i like it runny. i don't want dry eggings. soft scrambled. pete: soft scrambled, i absolutely agree with. i grew up on hard scrambled in minnesota. [laughter] my steaks were well, well done, and my eggs were brown-yellow and hard. rachel: not good. can i just say, when hay came out here -- i will get you have off the egg summit,s but i thinkings are so important. when years ago he were trying to sayings were bad, i never bought it. i trusted my gut instinct on it -- pete: trust sean's gut and get some chickens -- will: and her takeaway is, i was right again. [laughter] rachel: i would do the chicken coop if the kids would do it, but the problem is we have a dog that they promised held take care of, and they didn't -- pete: it's going to be sean.
5:03 am
rachel: exactly. and he now has a new show, which means it'll be me during the da- pete: the duffys are not gettin- rachel: no. all right. will: fox news alert, protests continuing for a second day after the release of horrific body cam footage showing beating of tyre nichols. pete: activists calling for police reforms nationwide as cities try to keep the peace. rachel: charles watson is live in memphis with more. good morning. >> reporter: hey, good morning, guys. fox news can now confirm that the five former memphis police officers who are charged in the death of 29-year-old tyre nichols will be arraigned in shelby county, tennessee, on february 17th. we are learning this less than a day after the memphis police department announced that it will perm mentally deactivate -- permanently deactivate what's known as the scorpion unit, a street crime task portion that included at least some of the officers involved in the brutal
5:04 am
beating of nichols on january 7th. officials say it led to nichols' death. while current officers agree with the decision to shutter the unit, officers who were assigned to that unit, an attorney who represents the nichols family says this was an easy step. many a statement he says, quote: abolishing the scorpion unit in them fils is low -- memphis is low hanging fruit. nonetheless, pleased the unit is gone, now real reform is required. this development follows the release of body cam video that shows five officers savagely kicking, punching and pepper spraying a seemingly defenseless nichols. all five men have since been fired and are now facing second-degree murder charges and other offenses in relation to nichols' death. >> this is not a matter of training. this is a matter of basic humanity. i don't know how you train police officers into having the moral character necessary to not
5:05 am
commit murder on the job the way that they did. >> reporter: yeah, and demonstrators continue their call for justice in the name of nichols for a second day. protests here and in cities across the country have been largely peaceful with the exception of at least three people who were arrested many new york city on friday -- in new york city on friday. a woman is now out on bail after she allegedly assaulted a police officer during the protests. at least two others remain jailed including a man who's accused of destroying a up wind shield of an nypd patrol car. so, guys, most of the people who are out protesting seemed to get the message of the nichols family that they want things to be peaceful. only a few, as i mentioned, have not listened to those pleas from the family. we are expecting later this week, on wednesday, a funeral for mr. nichols with reverend al sharpton expected to deliver a eulogy, guys. will: thank you so much percent update.
5:06 am
let's bring in "fox news sunday" anchor shannon bream. shannon, good morning to you. you heard discussion with charles. as you look at and see the fiver five officers who have been arrested and charged, there's other officers around the situation as well that sort of show up, perhaps didn't render aid. entirety of situation, shannon, what will be -- in your estimation -- the legal ramifications for everyone involved? >> well, there are a number of charges that those five former officers are facing. we're told there are potentially more coming. now, when i heard that comment from folks connected to the case, i don't know if it means for those officers or additional people or possibly both. investigation is far from over. you've got state and federal going concurrently, so it is possible there is more to this. interestingly enough, jonathan turley, the professor, is going to be on with us today on "fox news sunday" today, and he wrote a piece where he thinks maybe the federal civil rights invest was -- can investigation was
5:07 am
done a little prematurely. so i'll kind of probe him on that and how he thinks it's going to play out. you mow benjamin crump -- by the way, an attorney i went to law school with who represents many families in these cases -- can be is praising the police and the district attorney there in memphis for so quickly taking action. not that it can right any of these wrongs, but it shows their willingness to be transparent about it. pete: so, shannon, you do think this could unlock multiple further investigations into other cases where maybe the victim wasn't killed, but there were improper protocols. >> yeah, it's possible. and if i'm one of those defendants who was caught up in one of these situations, that's one of the first things i'm going to want my attorney to do, is to go back and say look at my client's case. i want to see body cam footage, i want to see what the charges were, and it's really going to open the police department up to a big headache for possibly looking at older cases that any of these five officers was involved with. rachel: yeah, that makes sense to me. shannon, can we move to another
5:08 am
topic, it's mark hauk, he's man who, basically, his home was raided and his family was traumatized. the fbi came in with guns and vehicles and everything else, terrorizing his family, essentially, as they did it because he was at a protest. i hay claim that, you know, he was harassing someone or blocking someone which he, of course, says was not the case. give us the update on this, because it looks like he's facing # 1 years in prison for what many people think was just a peaceful, prayerful protest. >> so he was across the street from the an abortion clinic. he's a pro-life guy and, yes, up to 11 years if convicted under this federal face act. he says, and the testimony has been, that he was across the street. there was an escort with the clinic who came over. there was some confrontation, there was conversation. mark houck says his 12-year-old son was being confronted by this
5:09 am
guy, he did push him. let me read you what the federal statute is about that's being used to prosecute him. it prohibits viability, threatening, damaging conduct. he says he wasn't doing that. the they've testified. it's interesting that a pastor who was many case this week as-proceeding, i wasn't there, but this is his account. he says he heard the judge say it appears to me the u.s. government is stretching the statute of the face act. rachel: yes. >> if that's the case, it's possible that these charges could be tossed, but the jury apparently is having a very hard time with this and is sort of locked up for now. rachel: yeah. it seems to me they're trying to make an example out of him and, i think, somehow scare other pro-lifers from exercising their the right, but we'll see. will: shannon, what's coming up today on "fox news sunday"? >> we are going to do a deep dive with our legal panel, our experts, three attorneys, former
5:10 am
officer, to talk about what went down, what comes next, and we've got republican mike mccall, democrat adam smith to talk about the case that you guys mentioned, general who said we're going to be potentially fighting with china in 2025. was that taken out of context, what does it mean, these guys are foreign policy experts, we'll talk about that. ukraine, the tanks that we're sending that may not get there for a year. we'll talk the documents and all kinds of 2024 business, plus a senator so new i and so young, she's still mistaken for a staffer. what it's like to be a freshman over there. will: all right, shannon, we'll be watching. thank you so much. pete: 2 p.m. today on the fox news channel. will: you guys know, we've been talking about it for the past week or so, world economic forum is taking places many davos, switzerland, and out of that a lot of laughs, a lot of things to watch and mock. but also to be vealed about the way they -- revealed about the way they view the world, us and the future if they can have it
5:11 am
by design. rachel: or how they view themselves. take a look. will: as extra the terrestrials. watch. [laughter] >> when you stop and think about it, it's pretty extraordinary that we select group of human beings because of whatever touched us at some point in our lives are able to sit in a room and come together and actually talk about saving the planet. i mean, it's so almost extraterrestrial to think about, quote, saving planet. >> that's what's boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers and the rain bombs and sucking the moisture out of the land and creating the droughts and melting the ice and raising the sea level and causing these waves of climate refugees. will: it is positively religious. rachel: yeah. will: that is a fire and brimstone preach of apocalypse from al gore. rachel: do you think he believes this though? i don't. i think he's making a lot of money. all of these people are invested
5:12 am
in these green energy projects -- will: i think the number's $00 million that he's -- 300 million that host made since losing the vice presidency. back to john kerry, a select group of people to save planet, it's almost extra the terrestrial. i mean, it's a bigs, and they -- can religion, and they view themselves as the god. pete: absolutely. you've got the guy who got sham purple hearts in vietnam and the guy who invented the internet -- i think al gore probably does believe it at some level, but he understands how to enrich himself in the process, and he doesn't actually care about his own conduct, so he flies a jet over there, and he doesn't care about the consequences on other poor people around the globe who are not given access to a better life because of the restrictions he wants to put on them. it's a bunch of rich people in a homogeneous country in switzerland that has closed borders preaching to all of us about destroying our cultures
5:13 am
and opening them up and opening up our borders. these are -- and it's business leaders and politicians believing in this, in the great reset is a phrase that came out of the world economic forum, that they want a new regime of international control that dictates how we live, limits what we can consume, meat, eggs, things like that in favoring or advancing some climate future that they believe they'll be in charge of. rachel: yeah. again, so simple, if you really believed as al gore, would you have a mansion and fly a gent over to -- jet over to davos? no, that would not happen. jordan peterson, he's a canadian professor, he was on joe rogan, and he was talking about the world economic forum because, again, the these guys aren't just blowing hot air. these people in davos are very powerful people who are impacting your world and your little town. and he says, jordan peterson,
5:14 am
that he wants to form an alternative forum or an alternative conference to the world economic forum. listen to what he suggests could be a counter to it. >> i really felt that i've been at war percent last six months -- for the last six months, because what i on served happening in europe when i was there last, it's pretty damn can clear that the globalist utopians are willing to sacrifice the poor for the sake of planet, you know? they're doing that by congressing energy -- cranking energy prices through the roof. we're trying to put together the something like an alternative vision of the future, say ab an alternative to that kind of apocalyptic narrative that's being put forward at least implicitly by organizations like the wef. you don't get to save planet by making energy prices so expensive that no one poor can afford it. that's off the table. so if you want to develop alternative energy source, no problem, you know? hey, man, the more energy
5:15 am
sources we have, the better. but you don't get to impose your utopian vision in the service of your narcissism on the poor. rachel: yeah. you don't get to impoverish people because you have you have some crazy idea that we should all transition before the technology is available. and finally, they've also collapsed countries. look at what happened to sri lanka with all of the agricultural policies they've put in place. these people have a very bad track record at the wef. interesting to hi whether an alternative we finishing is the -- wef is the answer. will: yeah, and i know you did a deep dive on your latest podcas- rachel: who is the leader, why you should care about the world economic forum, what is it. we brought in ezra kline -- will: ezra lavont. rachel: i'm sorry. and they took a group of people to davos and asked all the
5:16 am
questions that those journalists that had all the credentials didn't ask. will: there's a viral video of ezra walking with albert bourla, ceo of poiser, asking a -- of pfizer, asking a ton of questions that no one else has and very favorable environment with a cnbc interview. you're not faced with the type of questions. of course, he didn't answer. rachel: right. but it's interesting to hear the questions he should be asked. i hope you watch it and listen to it and watch it. it's op on video as well. will: i loved what you said, by the way, a moment ago. if you think about it, so, it's a bunch of rich people who fly in private planes to a country with very strict borders and a 40 -- can homogeneous country and craft a vision of the future for everyone else that has nothing many common. rachel: you will own nothing and be happy, is what the great reset says. pete: yes.
5:17 am
and you'll open your borders and decriminalize and be happy. all the godless, utopian visions are right there in switzerland. rachel: and the worse part for pete, you will not eat meat and be happy. [laughter] pete: you will eat bugs. and the guy even sounds and looks like a bond villain. will: no doubt. rachel: totally. and one of the interesting things ezra said on our podcast, he thinks klaus is more powerful than soros. will: check that out, from the kitchen table. now to a few additional headlines. police in detroit are searching for this man who's accused of stealing a car with a baby inside on monday. the baby was miraculously unharmed, but the thieves were no where to be found. car was briefly left unattended when the owner was inside a gas station. a residence -- residents in jackson, mississippi, are bracing to go without clean drinking water periodically for up to 10 years. it's been over 5 months since
5:18 am
the city's water pipe system failed. crews are working to replace it, but city leaders warn it will be a long process. charity organizations are asking anyone to send clean drinking water to the city which has lost more than 10% of its residents in the past decade. really quickly, watch the fallout9 from that. what do people do? you can't dig a well in your back yard, so you move. watch the population of jackson -- clean drinking water? sort of basic. rachel: yeah. will: all right. today is national puzzle day. experts say puzzles can be a great way to exercise your mind and improve brain function. we've got a special puzzle on set. pete: we do. look at. rachel: that's a great puzzle. pete: it's a puzzle. [laughter] will: it's not -- i don't think it's for sale. pete: let me see if i can get will's face -- the i've always wanted your face in my hand. [laughter] will: wow. all of this is the disturbing. [laughter] what is he saying that he's not
5:19 am
saying? rachel: i know -- pete: i'm going to carry you around in my pocket. will: that's even creepier, dude. stop. [laughter] rachel: we have dr. marc siegel, we might be able to get -- pete: does he do psychiatry? rachel: i don't know. pete: there you development. he's back in. rachel: he put you back. will: any psychiatrist watching, friends@foxnews.com. can you give me some insight on what just went down? [laughter] pete: was it love or passive-aggressiveness? i don't know. i think it's love. [laughter] will: i worry about that. it puts the lotion in the basket. [laughter] rachel: way to take the puzzle thing -- pete: well, i looked, i tried t- rachel: it was a lovely segment until pete -- will: now it's silence of the lambs. pete: people like puzzles. [laughter] rachel: this is so creepy. pete: when's the last time -- will: man, you're trying, but the train is off the tracks it's
5:20 am
best we go ahead and bail. pete: president train's off the tracks, then i'm taking you with me. [laughter] rachel: all right. well, coming up, the only thing crazier than what pete just did is that a rhode island high school assistant principal reportedly asked for donations, basically she wanted to crowd source a cartel migrant trafficker and paying the fee that a young student -- pete: yeah. gotta pay the coyote. of. rachel: he's there to help people, as she says in the e-mail. pete: as house republicans gear up for their first hearing oned biden's border crisis. congressman darrell issa sits on the judiciary committee, he joins us next. ♪ ♪ it's the about time for a drink. ♪ it's about time for a cold one ♪ >> woman: why did we choose safelite? >> vo: for us, driving around is the only way we can get our baby

5:25 am
came to america with coyote. our student needs if our urgent support to raise another $2,000. border crisis, a top priority for republicans as new house judiciary chair jim jordan schedules his very first hearing on the topic for this week. congressman darrell issa sits on that committee and joins us now. congressman, thanks for being here. first of all, it's staggering that that a school official would send an e-mail like this thinking that paying a cartel is a good thing, and it makes you wonder how, how many students across america might be saddled with this same situation. they have obey back -- to pay back, effectively, indentured servitude to the cartels which asked them here illegally. >> we mow that we have more than a million -- we know that we have more than a million so-called getaways this year. so the fact is that there are lots and lots and lots. some of them are underagedded women working in the sex trade. that's just a reality that we
5:26 am
deal with every day. but it's the part -- the committee will be looking not just at the side effects and those who are here that got around the system, but we're going to be looking specifically at failure to comply with the intent of the law and the impact it's having around country. pete: yes. when you say failure to comply with the intent of the law, you mean a rampant exploitation of asylum. i mean, this idea that everyone's a migrant, right, as opposedded to an illegal breaking the law in. >> well, exactly. and, you know, it's, it would be like saying, well, you know, we're going to -- we're not going to prosecute anyone for any drug crime, or we're not going to prosecute min for assault -- anyone for assault. and what we're going to do instead is we're going to schedule that in the future we're boeing to have a trial, and hen we're going to release lease them and never have the trial. that's effectively what's going on. americans understand that we're not even processing a tenth of the people that are being allowed in per year. so every year that goes by there
5:27 am
will be millions more people in the backlog by intent, and those people will become american, is clearly what administration wants to do. it's unfair to those individuals if someday they become very american and hen they're sent home -- and then they're sent home because america can not or not toll tolerate, if you will, those who got in ahead of those who waited in line. pete: because their first act was an illegal one when they came to this country. real quick just for my own curiosity the, i don't morally associate the border with the judiciary committee. it's great to see it a top priority, but how did it land there? >> the odd thing is having been the chairman of oversight, we often look at oversight because it can go anywhere and investigate anything. but when it comes to actually changing these laws or changing the enforcement of these laws, it falls squarely on judiciary. judiciary, immigration is exclusive to that the committee.
5:28 am
the laws that the president is not faithfully upholding, in our opinion or at least in my opinion, were created in this committee not just a while ago, but decades ago before henry hyde was a senior member. and that's what's sad is, that the law hasn't changed. the president's willingness to reinterpret it in a way that's never been this broad is happening. pete: the more you know. all right. well, i'm glad this is top issue, because it should be front and center. the media, except for us, is ignoring it, but you guys are not. congressman, thank you so much. >> thank you. pete: all right. coming up, from tech to toys, mass layoffs are sweeping corporate industries. former walmart ceo bill simon joins us to discuss. plus, joe biden shipping more equipment to ukraine, but could hurt america's own military readiness? will and i go off the wall to

♪ will: mass layoffs across the country are going beyond big tech the. hasbro, the toymaker, is cutting its work force by 1,000 employees. meanwhile, bed bath & beyond is closing an additional 87 stores because it can no longer service its debt. even cvs and walmart are cutting pharmacy hours because of labor shortage, so what on earth is going on in the american work force in let's turn to former walmart president and ceo bill simon. bill, you look at these layoffs happening now across the country, what's your big takeaway about what it means for all of us and the economy at large? >> yeah, i mean, it's crazy. right now we're stuck in this loop of, you know, wage inflation, product if inflation, cost inflation, and it's just that cycle keeps going. and i think, unfortunately, an
5:34 am
inevitable by-product of some of the fed moves and the necessary medicine we have to take to cool things down are some of these layoffs that are coming. if. will: well, you know, it's interesting you lay out that point of view. i mean, one of ways to look at this is, as you mentioned, unemployment has to happen in order -- it goes hand in hand with bringing down inflation. so when you see these companies beginning to lay off people, does that actually in some. way put us putt down the road -- put us further down the road to getting the economy back on track in terms of no inflation and also then maximum employment? >> well, there's -- theoretically, yeah, i agree with you, will. but the problem is at the same time there's this wage inflation that's going on. for example, last week walmart announced they're raising their minimum wage, their starting wage to $14 an hour, that's a
5:35 am
17% increase, will. you know, food costs have gone up 23% in the last two years, so now wages have gone up 17% at wal-mart, 25 the % at delta for pilots, 25% for the rail industry, and wage increases like that sort of counteract the, you know, the employment layoffs that we're starting to see. and so there's a lot going on, and it's sort of cycling back to your last story. imp gration's a -- immigration's a problem too. we need workers that we can employ that are in the country legally. you're letting people many that can't participate in the work force but do increase demand. so you have increased demand driving prices up without the work force to be able to service it. so it's a complicated factor that -- will: yeah. >> -- trying to solve inflation, but you have compacting forces that kind of mess that up. will: sorry to interrupt there. i was going to say adding to that complexity is also an american work force many many cases -- in many cases choosing
5:36 am
not to work. very, very complicated. really quickly, bill, when you add all this up, the layoffs, still rising inflation, what kind of economy are we looking at here for 2023? there's a lot of conversation, hard recession, soft recession. how does it impact us in 2023? >> for me, i think the most kit call thing that's going to happen in '23 is we have to get this inflation under control. another year of high single-digit, low double-digit inflation, and we're going to to be in a world of hurt because inflation hurts 100% of the population. a recession might hurt, you know, 2 the-3 that have lost their job or -- 2-3% that have lost their job. we've got to get inflation under control, so i'm hopeful that the fed continues their practice until we can sort of lasso that. will: you've been inside the big corporation, you understand the decisions that have to be made, so we appreciate you joining us and sharing your perspective. bill simon. >> yes, sir. will: coming up, president biden

but not a game-changer on the ground especially because most of these won't get there for a year because of how long it takes fro cure them, get them there, train them on the weapons. will: that seems incredibly important, how long it takes to procure them and transport them on one piece of military equipment. so let's play out into the bigger story here. we've now dedicated $42 billion of american money, your money, american taxpayer money, to the efforts in ukraine. that's both humanitarian, economic and military aid, and the abrams tanks, pete, one part of the larger story of what we've dedicated -- pete: more lee hallty from an abrams tank, but we're talking about helicopters, this is what we rode in iraq and afghanistan, mraps. we left a lot of them behind in afghanistan. these are the ones we didn't leave behind. stinger missiles have been significant in slowing down the ability for putin's army to the advance as well as javelin anti-armor systems. one of these can take out a tank
5:43 am
of the russians, that's what makes this a game-changer of the smaller against the big. will: here's what i thought was important, a year lead time on an abrams tank. i think we both believe the united states has a vast, vast ability to produce war-making equipment. the one is -- the question is one of focus and dedication. j.d. vance of ohio saying we're focused in the wrong direction. watch this. >> we have spent so much of our munitions down, so much of our military grade equipment down that if we have to fight a war against china, which i think is far more likely and, frankly, the it's a far more dangerous opponent, that's what worries me, is that the focus on russia comes at the expense of china. will: pete, comes at expense of china. pete: he's exactly right. we have finite resources and ability to strategically orient, and that's why a general at the air mobility command, a top command in the air force, put out a memo to his command staff recently. >> caught our eye which is
5:44 am
getting a lot of attention and pointed out fact that a he hopes he's wrong, but his gut tells me we will fight -- and he means the communist chinese -- in 2025 because of elections in taiwan in 2024, our own presidential elections in 024, the uncertainty around that, and the fact that china has been orienting its military to fight us. they're building a military capable of defeating the united states. we have a military that's been fighting in the middle east for 20 years and is now focused in ukraine, and they see that as an opportunity. will: terrifying statement. defense department is saying that's not representative of the department's view on china. okay, but let's take it for a moment. let's say j.d. vance is right that we're distracted, our focus is torn, we're not looking at the real threat in china. what is it we're sized up against here when it come cans to the u.s. china? a bit of a tale of the tape. pete: it is. armed forces, this doesn't -- these numbers don't say anything about capabilities, and that's
5:45 am
the important part. you can throw a lot of -- the next war against china would not be a land war of them invading california or us being on the mainland of china. yes, those numbers are staggering, but they're not necessarily the strategic difference. aircraft, pretty important. but again, what type? fourth, fifth generation are fighter jets, they're trying to create those as well. will: look at ships, naval advantage for the chinese. now, this is projection by 2025, and that's where we stand today. to your point, they've been building a military designed for this confrontation. pete: yeah. what we don't have on screen is hypersonic missiles. donald trump the talking about that recently, by the way, and our need to be able to shoot them down because we have 10 aircraft carriers and they have, i think, 1 in development. but if they have a hypersonic missile that can tabling out the aircraft carrier, then our ability to project power becomes very difficult. will: look, if there's a fight disadvantage in any way, the terrifying thing is how -- you're throwing a haymaker, and
5:46 am
look at the haymaker difference. so the question is, is this the united states' ultimate flex? pete: it has been traditionally in peer-on-peer conflictings. but two colonels for the communist chinese wrote a strategy thetic piece in the late '90s called unrestricted warfare. hay know they don't have the same military capabilities that that we do, so through technology, through cyber, through cultural issues, they see -- economic, they see other advantages to bringing us to our knees, and that's what they would try to leverage. will: this is total military spending in 2021. the united states outspends china. i think the takeaway is the advantage isn't what one might imagine for the united states of america. pete: we talk to people currently serving, they're cynical about our capability should china try to move on taiwan, and if they do, we've said we would back taiwan. that's a lot of power projection from us, and could that spiral into a larger war that china thinks they have the advantage in. will: all the more important to
5:47 am
ask, to see where's our focus, should it be on ukraine or china? pete: exactly right. rachel, what do you think? rachel: i vote china, not ukraine. i think you guys knew that. [laughter] but it's scary stuff. pete: for sure. rachel: it's really great information. all right, we're going to turn now to some other information, these are your headlines. of the minnesota state senate passing a new bill that codifies abortion without limits. republicans proposing several amendments to the bill to add protection for the unborn, but all of them were eventually and, sadly, shot down. >> -- has pioneered the limits of viability. and if a child can survive outside of womb, i think it is a reasonable and moderate place to say that that child deserves a shot. rachel: wow, agree with that. critics of the bill calling it the most extreme abortion legislation in the united states. a good samaritan las vegas

procedures that that try and alter the healthy organs of people simply because that person identifies as a member of the opposite sex. fox news medical contributor dr. i really don't like the use of that that world, gender-affirming, because it's a sex change operation on a child. >> yeah, absolutely. and the key thing you just said is on a child. because 1.5 million people mt. united states are transgender, identify as transgender, but among children it's less than 1% have gender dysphoria where they're not sure, they feel insecure, they don't know. they have anxiety the, depression. so the first question is what do you do about. well, you have to start with therapy. rachel: right. >> a support group. it takes years to figure this out. so pediatricians should not be doing this, and i have a proble- with the idea that some of this may be irreversible. puberty blockers, if you start with them, they could affect fertility long term, they definitely affect bone growth, there's an issue with that.

surgeries, obviously, can't be reversed. mastectomies can't be reversed, so what are pediatricians involved in this for? the other thing -- can. rachel: i know why, because pharma and hospitals are making money. these are lifelong patients. >> that's one thing. the other thing is that it's a philosophy, it's politics, isn't it? rachel: yeah, that that's solved too. >> it's not that you couldn't decide this later on. i'm all for an 18-year-old or a 20-year-old deciding what to do the, but we're talking about 12-year-olds here. and a big part of in this lawsuit is, well, why do. >>s -- doctors have to be told what to say? is. rachel: that's right. >> why can't a doctor just say i i have have concern about long-term side effects? rachel: yeah. >> if a doctor -- can if you don't like what a doctor says, go see a different doctor. rachel: again, that's why i'm such a stickler on that phrase, because it's part of the politics, and they're trying to politicize science and medicine. and in the end, these are victims, these poor children
