4:02 am
rachel: good morning, everybody. it's the 7:00 a.m. here in new york city ask just outside in fox square that was the brooklyn united drum line are. they're performing for us and for all of you here on super bowl sunday, and they're going to be here all morning long. they're amazing, just lighting up the square for us. will, brian, good morning. brian: good morning to you, again, rachel and will. important to point out, we're now talking hours until super bowl lvii, the first super bowl which is really 100% back. you know, two years ago there was about 2,500 media members, last year about 5,000. this year over 6,000 because everything's back to normal. it's the fourth super bowl for arizona. coming up a little bit later, a feature with "gronk", a little bit later a feature with a guy who had a great concert last night, kane brown. also there's a huge link between the military and football, and that's another way things are getting back to normal. one thing the usaa does which
4:03 am
really helps veterans on a regular basis is get players and gets veterans together. and they surprise 'em with tickets. and it happened with justin jefferson, no argument, best wide receiver in football, and travis etiennes with jaguars who is a really promising running back that can help lead the jaguars to this game maybe in the not too distant future. they asked to help, and they were given veterans to team up with, and we captured some of those moments. watch. >> definitely show my love to the military. >> eight of our great veterans are going to go to the game this year because of usaa's sponsorship and also the participation of these great nfl players. >> it's the best thing that ever happened to me. >> i am honored and i'm humbled to the represent every veteran and all the armed forces who would want to be here. brian: travis, you haven't had a chance to meet the recipient
4:04 am
that's going to the super bowl, but i think you're about to meet them right now. >> i appreciate you. brian: you know travis? >> yes. brian: you know of him. >> this is bucket list for so many people, veterans, civilians and the world, and you've made my dream come true. >> this is what football can do for us, and this is what you're supposed to be doing with your gifts. brian: so these men and is some of the women have been surprised with tickets. they have sacrificed the vietnam era, the world world war ii era, the persian gulf one fight and top teamed up with different athletes it's truly a motivational thing that we saw, and i know the uss does a great -- usaa does a great job. the last time i was here, travis kelce was the one surprising. so that's just one of the moments where the military as well as the flyover, as well as seeing the faces when they go right before the, while they're playing the national anthem tonight and while we're hearing the national anthem, you'll see
4:05 am
flashes of the men and women and faces deployed oversea, and the crowd goes crazy. so the usaa does a great job, will. will: travis kelce was there before giving away those ticket, now he's in the super bowl. maybe that's a good sign for pete hegseth and justin jefferson and the future of the minnesota vikings. no argument, justin jefferson's the best wide receiver? none? one of the op. stefon diggs, georgia mar chase up there as well. brian: more receptions in the first three years of his career than anybody else in the history of football. will: best receiver in the nfl. i'm going to leave that somewhat unchecked this morning. no, that's exciting for you. some people point out -- we'll move quickly from this -- some people point out why is the military so involved with football, you know? i remember having these debates about, you know, is that propaganda the? so what? yes, it is. that's americana. it's all important aspects of america, the super bowl, the
4:06 am
nfl, football and the united states military. yes, it can all be -- and you know what? it should be celebrated together. we celebrate america, rachel. rachel: yeah. i think about, i was watching that segment, and is i just kept thinking about my dad, 32 the-year veteran in the u.s. air force, the biggest football and sports fan ever, and i was thinking how can i get my dad's name in there. [laughter] brian: oh, curbed. rachel: he's radioright there in arizona -- right there in arizona. he's been watching everything you've been doing from scottsdale, from glendale, brian, and he's so excited to have you in his home state of arizona. so fantastic stuff. listen, speaking of our military, a lot going on with regard to that. the u.s. fighter jet shooting down another airborne object, this time over canada. identified as a small, metallic balloon with a tethered payload after it had already crossed into with u.s. air space.
4:07 am
meanwhile, the faa has temporarily shut down air space over montana yesterday after a radar anomaly was spotted, or that's what hay told us. and while nothing was found, it marks just a little more than a week since a chinese spy flight flew over montana's nuclear bases. montana gop congressman and retired navy seal ryan zinke joins us now. congressman, tell me what you think of all of this. what do we make of it? it's so unsettling. >> well, we're entering in a phase of balloon warfare, aren't he? really quite extraordinary. of on the first round, i don't expect to be told the truth by the chinese. they obviously said it was a civilian airship. it was not. i didn't appreciate being deceived by our, by our government by saying, well, we didn't shoot it down because we were concerned about collateral damage. i can tell you over montana, petroleum county as an example
4:08 am
has 434 anemia it. that's less than the -- in it. that's less than the united states congress, and they tend up splashing it off the coast of south carolina where i think the boat traffic was more of a threat of hitting something than montana. but, you know, you look at this phase we're entering in, and balloons are serious, and i'm glad the administration is finally taking it serious. the air force has had some good shots, they've take taken 'em as they should. there's a lot of bad things that can go in a balloon, you know? emt is one of them, the electromagnetic pulse, that's a serious threat. brian: one housekeeping question. what was the reason they're telling you that they stopped all air traffic in i'm seeing some video from if montana citizens posted online, montana's trending op on twitter about things that were in the sky. it was serious enough for norad to say no fly. what did the they tell you? and the other one was, congressman, after that they breached into alaska, already
4:09 am
passed over land when we shot it down, which means we didn't sop the it before it got there. so first things, did they tell you yet while why they shut down air traffic? >> well, i do appreciate the administration actually calling and advising what's happening in the skies over montana. but they scrambled a couple of f-15s for what is now appearing to be an anomaly, but they tracked it for a while. it showed up on the radar, and they sent two jets to look at it. they were unable to identify it before nightfall and continued on an an anomaly track. when these things penetrate the u.s. air space, we need to knock 'em out of the sky because balloons themselves, you know, it's the payload that can go on 'em. remember, the first round the administration said, well, you know, we're actually gaining intention, you know, off of what the chinese were actually transmitting. if you think about it, that's like inviting a thief into your house just to see what he would
4:10 am
take. but it appears to me that they're taking it more seriously. the military is actually, you know, moving forward and looking at it, and i think the administration should take it serious, because balloons overhead are an issue, a commie balloon overhead is a bigger issue, and if it's loaded with payload, that's serious. will: so, congressman, you pointed out two of the justifications that were given by the biden administration about why the first chinese spy balloon wasn't shot down. one, you were talking about the population are on the ground and, two, the justification that we were, we were actually gathering intel on them while they were gathering intel on us. but now we have at least four instances, and we can put it up on the screen, by the way, of what's occurred over the past week where we've encountered, i don't think they're always commitmented to be balloons unless you know, congressman, we're being told the subsequent ones are objects. from january 28th9 up through this week where you had this
4:11 am
radar anomaly in montana plus an object shot down over alaska and an object shot down over canada do. what i want to ask you is why have they changed their approach? you know, they're doing something very different than they did a week ago with the chinese spy balloon. did they find something already in the wreckage of the first one? is it all about pr? why are they shooting them down quickly now when they waited so long with the first chinese spy balloon? >> well, you know, my analysis is that the first balloon was just, took us off guard. i mean, it wasn't even the governor of montana, for instance, wasn't even notified until it was 200 miles into montana air space, and really the only time anyone talked about it when the billings gazette looked up and took a picture of it, so it was undeniable. i think there was a lot of pushback of the american people, as there should be, not allowing a, you know, a foreign object. and the reason why they say foreign object because if it doesn't act like an aircraft,
4:12 am
you know, if it had limited maneuverability, speed, then it goes into the lump of an unidentified, you know, object in the air. we're pretty confident they were a balloon. but it's a big deal because what you can hang on a balloon, you know? and balloons, balloon warfare, you know, yeah, they're slow, they're easier to pick out than a high moving aircraft, but they're still a threat. rachel: congressman, this is the, as you know, super bowl sunday. a lot of traditions around this day in sports, but this is also a transition of the president speaking to the american people and sort of, you know, giving a sit-down interview. the president, president biden, has refused to sit down, denied the ability, said he wouldn't sit down with foxment how -- with fox. how important is it for the president especially at a time like this with so many
4:13 am
questions, with people feeling so unsettled, worried, nervous about our country, about our military, about our capabilities to deeducate the things coming into -- detect things coming into our air space, wouldn't have been the perfect time for the president to sit down and talk to the american people? >> i think the president and the administration should be truthful, number one. rachel: yes. >> say is, we can recover it off the coast. i'm a seal, and i can tell you i've worked in the aleutian chain, so i know how remote and isolated that is. i've also done a lot of circle searches, what we call, for lost objects under the water. 37 feet, that's not that keep, but the field itself would take every seal, every diver their whole career to a scan underneath it. so i think they need to be truthful that, you know, now they have their eye on the ball, we're going to talk control of our air space seriously, we're going to shoot down objects when we find 'em, you know, coming over our air space, and we're going to have to push back on
4:14 am
china. you know, it all comes from china. and there's a lot of things that come from china like the world's largest polluter, like the world's largest illegal fishing, like 90% of the plastics in our oceans come from four rivers in china. there's the a lot coming from china, and i tell you what, we don't like a lot of it. rachel: yeah. we got covid from china as well. >> yeah. the list goes on, right? but what we're seeing now is i think the president should get on, and he should talk to the american people and tell 'em what's going on but truthful about it. brian: yeah. thanks so much, congressman zinc key, you're the second official who said they absolutely should have shot it down over montana. there was plenty of room. so right there, there's the lying and the disingenuousness. they think we're idiots, a bunch of more if ron, they can say anything and just go to camp david or rehoboth and look at classified documents and call it
4:15 am
a weekend. it's unbelievable, congressman, thanks so much. >> thank you. god bless, and i gotta tell you, i'm rooting for philly. brian: all right. a lot of people are, a lot of them are here -- >> i'm going to be -- i think kansas city's a great team, but i think philly's a little bit of the underdog. i'm going the underdog. brian: all right. mr. interior secretary the, thank you. >> meanwhile, i had a chance to go behind the scenes with "gronk", rob gronkowski, the latest fox employee. it's gallon's beach, the ultimate beach party and music festival. watch. one of the relatively new attractions on super bowl weak is the -- week is the "gronk" beach party. everywhere you go, there's a little bit of "gronk". "gronk", "gronk", "gronk". but so far no rob. the four-time super bowl champ, not here yet. but the good news is the people that came, they're keeping themselves occupied until he arrives. watch. ♪
4:16 am
brian: so, rob, the business of partying, is that what the i don't think beach party is -- "gronk" beach partiesome is that the goal? >> yeah. it's all about coming out here, losing your mind a little bit, putting all your stresses away. coming out here, you know, getting some sunshine, getting some rays, getting a nice tan while you're out here, having a couple drink, feeling good but also dancing your face off. that's what it's really about, is the dancing. of. brian: and you can dance, let's be honest. >> my moves are kind of like elvis. i gyrate the whole time. i finally found out where my dance originally rooted from, and it's from elvis. brian: really? you're kind of business too. you work for fox. what did you do this week? what is it like working with the guys? >> i love strahan, terry bradshaw, howie long, just everyone. jimmie johnson, they're such great guys putting me under their wing and helping me out so much. they want to see me have
4:17 am
success. it's amazing, and it's just so awesome being part of the team. i'm coming back here, baby. [laughter] brian: you were so accomplished in your 30s, but you're known as a partier. you said you wouldn't have been the same player without being a partier, however, without the discipline, you wouldn't have the success. >> you can only party if you, you know, take care of your work that week, make sure you get everything done. time to have a good time and reset that week. also i would say while we were partying, we were dancing. i was lifting up my friends, jumping on my back, moving my feet, working on my footwork. somehow all that movement, all that gyrating, it just translates to the field if you're going hard enough on the dance floor. brian: you're known to take your shirt off, all of a sudden brady's got his shirt off. >> a florida boy now, so you've got to take your shirt off in florida,st the 85 degrees every single day. brian: i want to follow you on stage and find out what it's like on the "gronk". am i depressed okay?
4:18 am
>> -- am i dressed okay? >> no, you're not. you need a wrangler -- whoa, whoa, out of nowhere. you're live at "gronk" beach 2023 here at the super bowl in phoenix, arizona. and it's popping as you can tell behype us, baby. brian: op or off? >> on. put those pit vipers on. he's looking fresh, baby. ♪ ♪ brian: we're about to go on stage. >> energy is flowing. good thing i just got my drink at the beach because i am a beast, and i'm about to to go up there, bust a couple moves. brian: is this mindset similar similar to before a game? "gronk"'s about to go on stage. i sense the audience is about to get four or five, maybe six footballs. [cheers and applause] ♪ ♪

will: a heartbreaking crisis, more children brutally attacked and bullied in schools across america. we want to warn you, the video we're about to show you is graphic. in florida a 15-year-old boy is caught on camera savagely beating a 9-year-old girl on the school bus. meanwhile, in minneapolis a 15-year-old is stabbed to death by a fellow student in school on friday. plus in the new jersey a superintendent has just resigned after the vicious beating of a 14-year-old that then led to her suicide. the 14-year-old took her own life after students posted a video online of her getting beat up9 in the hallway. we bring you that video, show you those videos not to be gratuitous, but to get to the bottom of what's happening in america. a family therapist, author of raising healthy agers, joins us now concern teenagers.
4:26 am
tom the, it's a valuable voice to have with us this morning. i mean, i have a teenager, rachel has teenagers, you know, many people watching do. what's going on? all we can do, our hearts go out to the people involved in these instances and our fear and our mind think about our own children. >> thanks for being with you, will. i have a couple teenagers myself, and a lot of this really started a lot more violence and what we call optional dedefines -- oppositional defiance behavior post-covid from kids being locked down. they did not develop proper communication skills because when you're not with other people, you can't develop those things. empathy, civility and emotional regulation come with that. secondly, and i underscore this in my new book, by the way, secondly, kids are spending almost all they have time in front of screens. everything is caught on a camera, and the more we see something, the more we normalize it. there's tons of violence, and i think a lot of them just don't
4:27 am
realize this is bad stuff. will: yeah. as you were describing that, tom, about what happened during covid, i couldn't help but think, well, we had this problem regardless of covid. living through a screen, not communicating with other humans, you know, in my estimation the proliferation of prescription drugs for children. it's like everything is used to basically take all empathy out of a child and dehumanize everyone else in the world. if. >> yeah, 100%. really, you know, the foundation of this is parenting, okay? so i will promise you that every one of these kids there's something going on in terms of parenting for those kids. and if even if they do have two parents at home, what i see in my experience as therapists is most teenagers are literally reclusive. they're spending all their times in their bedrooms by themselves. participants, what you really need to do is spend quality time with your kids. that is probably the most important thing for them in terms of developing, you know, good behavior, good conduct,
4:28 am
civility and the important things that we want our kids to have. will: yeah, one last thing really quickly, tom, these are happening in public schools. you're sending your kid to be educated, at a minimum, you hope, to be safe, and then you hear stories like out of jersey where there's bullying that then leads to a suicide. i'm going to assume your answer's communication, but, i mean, as a parented, if this is going -- as a parent, if this is going on, you've got to know. >> not only that, you know, we have to protect, you know, the innocent kids, okay? and in new jersey, i worked in a public high school as a counselor for 25 years, and new jersey has some of the strictest, most comprehensive anti-bullying laws. and i don't know the details in terms of whether or not they ran an anti-bullying investigation in that school, but to your point, will, we need to be able to send our children to school and let them feel safe. will: no doubt about it. no doubt about it. parenting, public schools entrustment and then, yeah, helping our children see others as humans, not through screens.

rachel: a new report vealing how woke corporate america has become. the 1792 exchange setting the policies and practices of more than a thousand companies ranking the likelihood of the management ache thing action if -- take taking if employees have a different point of view. 50% of companies werelatedded low risk -- rated low risk meaning little chance of them prioritizing ideology, but 30% were found medium risk, and 12% were rated high risk. joining us now is the president of the 179 2 exchange, paul fitzpatrick. what a great service you're doing to america by ranking these. at least information is power, we can get to know what they're up to. explain esg, environmental and social governance and how that impacts how these companies are
4:43 am
acting. >> rachel, good morning, thanks for having me on. esg is a set of principles that are ill-defined, which is really the answer. environmental, social and governance principles that activists can use to fill and weaponize corporations. they can cancel customers, as we've heard and you talked about, can deny service, they can choke off funding based on these principles. and they're rating companies based on whatever the political position of the day is. rachel: yeah. it's scary stuff. it feels like a chinese social credit score of sorts. and it's scary for customers, it's scary for the employees who work there. let's take a look at some of the high risk companies. etsy, godaddy, amazon, youtube. tell us about these companies. what can the average person do? is it just a matter of boycotting? it seems hard because a lot of this we're competent on amazon -- dependent on amazon, but some of this is through
4:44 am
investment management firms like blackrock and vanguard. what can we do? >> rachel, we can do a lot. the customer has incredible power. the problem is we need to change our behavior. go to our database, 1792 exchange.com, find the companies that they patronize, print off the report, walk into the office, the local branch, and if it's a high risk company, ask politely to calmly speak with the manager and say why are you doing this, are you going to cancel me? and if you're a business or a nonprofit, ask to have the terms of your agreement changed. if it's a low risk company, go into that office, thank them, encourage your friends to shop there, and we believe that market forces will work. if we change behavior, our behavior, the companies will change their behavior. rachel: yeah. it's fascinating, the amount of power that you say we as individuals have to change their mind. it reminds me a lot of congress. people forget that walk into the

congressman's office actually makes a difference. and writing letters and informing them in that way. really quick, i'm concerned about banks. a lot of these, the ones that you mentionedded here are banks. we saw with the canadian truck drivers if they cut off your money, you're kind of dead in the water there. >> rachel, you're exactly right. you've got jpmorgan chase canceled the bank account for sam brownback's new nonprofit, denied service for an organization similar. my because donald trump jr. was going to speak at an event. we have bank of america and citibank weaponizing. but one thing that's happening right now, these banks want to use your money to advance their values so much that they are fighting sate the legislation that's moving concern state legislation that's moving through many states that would simply restrict public employee pension funds so they can only be invested for the beneficiaries, not for esg reasons. rachel: yeah. >> and they are the ones fighting in the states. and it is unconscionable and shocking.
4:46 am
rachel: but that's where it should be cone, in the states, right? you need governors to say you're not going to take our state pension money and use it toward your woke ideology. you have to work on behalf of the investor and advance profits, not ideology, is that correct? >> that is correct. and every we have seen the unsung heroes here have been treasurers, attorneys general and increasingly governors and state legislator thes. rachel: a political component as well. wow, paul, great having you on today. thank you so much. such an important topic, and getting information out is the first step. thank you for joining us. >> thank you, rachel. rachel: all right. over to you, adam. adam: good morning, rachel. beautiful morning on fox square where i've got a big team behind me, the brooklyn united drum line, heir going to perform in just a minute. but first, the forecast that is chilly across the country. you are seeing across the middle of country, the midwest back across the plains where some of the temperatures are the coolest. 31 currently in kansas city, the same is true up in chicago.

for a 30-second spot. but these ads have been plague, they started last march. but this super bowl appearance will be their biggest ad spend yet. it's kind of a kickoff of their big campaign. and for the most part the last few months, the donors have been very anonymous. but it's been recently revealed that it's been hobby lobby who we kind of know has been a sponsor of the musing of the bible and the signet tree which is kind of a collection of christian donors who are funding this campaign. and it really is about bringing the message of jesus, trying to that make it about jesus and not several denominations. i know they're very gritty, they're very raw using modern scenes to depict elements of the bible. some people have found them fascinating, others have really railed against them because they don't like hobby lobby. that's been the most negative ads about them. rachel: it's interesting,
4:54 am
because one of them makes the comparison between refugees or illegals and mary, joseph and is jesus going to bethlehem. >> reporter: right. rachel: they're clearly taking a political message which i find fascinating, if you want the talk about jesus, maybe not the best thing. because, let's face it, a lot of these corporations benefit from the cheap labor that is coming over the border. so i wonder if it is entirely a sincere message. >> reporter: well, i don't think that this -- i think that was probably the most political ad you're going to see of the he gets us ads. the other ones are really depicting very much, very true to the scenes of the bible where, you know, jesus is tried, he's an innocent man and he says forgive them, that sort of thing. but i have to go back to the hobby lobby influence because i interviewed david green who is the founder of hobby lobby, and his business model is that god owns my company. this is an clash 8 billion a year -- $8 billion a year
