5:01 am
will: yet another installment today on our way to easter. pete: making our way to easter. there he is he will be joining us at the top of the hour and at the bottom of the faith and friends concert series and that opening shot clarksville, tennessee just outside fort campbell, so everyone in the 101st airborne good morning, hope you're watching. will: it was an army base of knowledge or i'm a new tennesseen? pete: that's army base of knowledge combined with the tennesseen getting his bearings abdomen wanted to show it off a little bit. rachel: we're super-impressed. pete: thank you. will: we have to get to news starting with a fox weather alert. it's now 26 people who are dead after historic outbreak of tornadoes in the south. pete: the path of destruction stretching for more than 100 miles leaving communities in ruins. rachel: fox weather correspondent is on the ground in mississippi. robert, good morning. reporter: good morning to you. the sun is up here this morning in the mississippi delta, and as
5:02 am
you see , i'm traversing through one neighborhood here in rolling fork, a town of just under 2,000 people. that is leveled by this ef-4 tornado. national weather service says it was about a mile and a half long , and it is full of debris. projectiles from homes. pieces of wood that turned into missiles literally flying through the air. 25 people have lost their lives in mississippi. one in alabama. we've been talking to survivors on the ground and across the state. one of them, the superintendent of amory schools and another person whose just glad to be alive. let's take a listen. >> it's very overwhelming to see what's going on. a lot of damage was done. right now the town doesn't have power or water, so that's a big concern for us. >> most of the guys that i go
5:03 am
to school with, high school, they have been having to, the night it hit they pulled dead bodies out of all of the wreckage. >> it's total devastation. a wreckage like i've never seen. it's only a miracle of god that there are not hundreds of fatalities. reporter: and you hear the angst in those people and you hear them talk about pulling people out of the wreckage. look at this home. this is brick. can you imagine the power it takes to knock over brick? you see power lines down. these are not hot. there is no power here. there is no running water. this town is decimated here, in a very poor area of america. ngo's are on the way. temporary shelters, government aid, but that doesn't make it any better for these people who
5:04 am
have lost friends and family and all of their livelihoods. the path forward is going to be incredibly long and intense. back to you. will: thank you for that. pete: robert ray. you're exactly right that it's a miracle that, i mean, every one of those 26 souls is a tragedy but it's a miracle it's not a hundred considering you see the level of devastation now that daylight is up. rachel: absolutely. want to go now to rick reichmuth who is tracking active tornadoes right now. rick: we have more severe weather going on just to the south of where the tornadoes hit on friday. a stationary front here. you get idea of a severe thunderstorm warnings in effect and this one tornado warning down across areas just to the northeast of millageville, georgia, towns of underwood here in the path of this but this is a confirmed tornado on the ground, so seek shelter if you are in the path of this. it's moving in its forward projection about 30 miles an hour, so if you are anywhere here, say between there and mitchell, georgia, make sure
5:05 am
you've got a plan. we do have a tornado watch in effect until noon, local time here, anywhere you see this red parts of central alabama through georgia, down across interstate 85 to the north of that, severe thunderstorm watch in effect and then to the east of that, until 1:00 local time, for now, a severe thunderstorm watch that includes central areas of south carolina, so a lot of people are going to be getting in on the severe weather with us throughout the day today. guys? will: all right, thank you, rick. be sure to download the fox weather app or stream fox weather on any tv connected device to keep up with what's happening not just over the last couple of days but as rick points out into today as well. pete: absolutely. rachel: amazing stuff. pete: you remember the stories have been in the news throughout the week of a judge kyle duncan went to talk about the first amendment at stanford law school and was shutdown and the diversity, equity and inclusion dean came up, her job was presumably to tamper things down and allow the event to
5:06 am
happen. instead, she basically scolded the judge for what he had to say on behalf of the kids. she's now, i believe, been placed on leave. thankfully stanford has stood up in retrospect pretty strongly for free speech and against what that dean has done. rachel: i think that was probably a lot of online donors. let's not pretend, because they wouldn't have hired this woman. pete: those were the snapping kids, like the student body base is headed in the wrong direction the alumni remember a university that used to stand for free speech and thinking and that's part of the reason why probably. let's remind you of who that stanford dei dean is tyran stein beck and this is what she said on march 9. >> so you have me speaking here non-stop and i'm asking for administrators to -- >> [overlapping speakers] >> it's uncomfortable to say
5:07 am
this to you as a person. it's uncomfortable to say that for many people here, your work has caused harm. has caused harm. >> [applause] >> and i know that be uncomfortable to hear. will: i don't think that you care your mic was up. rachel: was my mic up when i said that? will: good. rachel: but it's true. she sounds so dumb. all these kids sound so stupid and these are the tyrants who are going to rule us. will: snapping our way into hell. rachel: [laughter] will: since that moment -- rachel: i'm glad i'm not a teacher. pete: whenever you say something great on the show i'm going to do this. will: the argument, i'm hesitant to even use that word but the argument students attempted to make in the wake of this ugly incident is they were expressing their free speech that by shouting him down, the judge, well, they were giving their point of view and by trying to stop them, it's actually the judge and anyone else who was abridging their first amendment rights, so maybe
5:08 am
graciously we were able to actually hear from judge kyle duncan. he went to notre dame which is a freer, at times at least a freer campus for free speech than stanford. here is what he had to say about that interaction and argument. >> it's a great country where you can harshly criticize federal judges and nothing bad will happen to you. you might even get praised or promoted. the students there can protest me everyday of the week if they want and twice on sunday. the students at stanford and other elite law schools swim in an ocean of free speech, but make no mistake. what went on in that classroom on march 9 had nothing to do with our proud american tradition of free speech. it was rather a parity of it. it is not free speech to silence others because you hate them. some of the students were apparently convinced that what they were doing was "counter-
5:09 am
speech" wrong. it means offering a reasoned response to an argument. it doesn't mean screaming shut up, you scum, we hate you at a distance of 12 feet. other students claimed this was nothing more than the " marketplace of ideas in action." again, wrong. what transpired at stanford was no marketplace. it was more like a flash mob on a shoplifting spree. the mob came to target me because they hate my work and my ideas. pete: good for the judge. rachel: it was a sign that said "i hope your daughter gets rape" when i was watching it i kept thinking where is all their anger coming? there's a lot of stuff, i have a latina temper and i don't like a lot of stuff on the left but i don't act like that. i would never dream of putting up a sign wishing rape on my opponents children. i mean, where does all of this come from? what is it? pete: finding god brings a lot of peace. rachel: maybe that's it.
5:10 am
pete: and you deny, i don't know trying to turn earth into heaven and perfect it all, and it's never going to be perfect, so you get really angry about it. by the way the first statement that judge made, it's a great country where you can harshly criticize federal judges and nothing bad will happen to you. will: you get promoted he said. pete: you get promoted? we take that for granted. that is a profound modern development in a free social security. any other time in human history you criticize the powerful and you're gone. it still happens in china. will: maybe a less profound development though is what's happening with students, okay? i want to do this now. let's bring in shannon bream, our chief legal correspondent. sometimes people ask me, when did you arrive at your point of view or how you see it? you know my answer is often law school because i began to understand the constitution, the way ideas, you know, logically conect one another. the most concerning thing to me about what we just watched, shannon, is not the dei dean. that's who she is. that's who she was hired to be.
5:11 am
rachel: yeah. will: it's all of the students snapping about, you know, shouting someone down, shannon. that's the future of our country rachel: amen. >> well, to me, i wonder how much they have studied even supreme court case law because you think about things like west borough baptist church we're mostly familiar with them and signs they hold. they are outrageous. we can't even put them on tv. they do this at people's funeral s and they went to the supreme court and won 8-1, because the first amendment isn't about just speech we all like. we wouldn't need the first amendment. it is about the things that are very offensive, that you don't want to hear, that clash with your own personal sensibilities and the highest court of this country has upheld our constitutional right to say things that offend other people, and that means we have to have conversations and hear things that offend us that we don't want so hear. i think the judge rightly said, yeah, you can have a lot of tough back and forth but you've got to have the exchange of ideas or you miss the whole point. stanford's law school dean i thought did, you know, a good job in trying to diffuse this
5:12 am
after the fact saying, this is not the way the first amendment works. there's not a heckler's veto where you just get to shutdown something you don't want to hear so the students aren't going to get punished but it's interesting there are people bubbling up saying they file potential bar complaints against them so they can't get admitted to the bar because they haven't shown the right temperament to be somebody who could handle a courtroom so it's a lot of good conversation. rachel: i hope that happens. will: yeah. rachel: we'll see. pete: shannon tell us what's coming up on fox news sunday. you've got a big show. >> we do. there's a lot of foreign policy as you've been covering this morning from syria to russia, bellaruse, ukraine, the chairman of the house foreign affairs committee michael mccaul to talk through all of those things and an extended legal panel, professor turley, trey gowdy, to talk about what may happen this week in the potential indictment there in manhattan so a lot of topics to cover and we're featuring a friend of mine , tobey mack, a grammy award winning artist talking about the death of his son and how
5:13 am
he's hoping to help other people and he has been through sharing that. rachel: so shannon, you and i are both lucky enough to be married to great guys which makes me think about your book. tell us about it. >> yes it is finally out on tuesday. it does look at the good, the bad, the ugly of love relationships and the bible. we got the messy ones like sampson and dalaligh, we have this command to love our neighbors as ourself, there aren't any exceptions so the person who cuts me off in traffic, the back stabber, maybe i'm that person to somebody, we are all called up to rise and love each other and we can do that because god loves us unconditionally so it's a great example and very reassuring. we can't get beyond the reach of his love so it's coming out tuesday. rachel: well you're the least annoying person at fox, i can guarantee that. i'm glad to make the bottom of the list hopefully. pete: for sure. "the love stories of the bible speak" by shannon bream.
5:14 am
such a great series of a wonderful concept to continue to round it out. congratulations. >> thanks guys have a great sunday and by the way hello to my friend phil wickam. i'm so glad he's with you today. rachel: we'll tell him you said hi, shannon. >> please do. rachel: well, new york congresswoman aoc is making her tiktok debut to defend the app as many lawmakers call for a ban pete: she says congress should focus more on data protection laws instead. will: brook is here to tell us more. reporter: good morning, guys, new york congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez says tiktok should not be banned. >> hey, everyone, this is rep a oc, alexandria ocasio-cortez and this is my first tiktok. do i believe tiktok should be banned? no. why should tiktok not be banned? first of all i think it's important to discuss how unprecedented of a move this be. the united states has never
5:15 am
before banned a social media company from existence, from operating in our borders, and this is an app that has over 150 million americans on it. reporter:aoc taking her pro- tiktok stance after lawmakers on both sides of the aisle grilled the company ceo over security concerns. earlier this month a bipartisan group of senators introduced the restrict act which would allow the federal government to ban foreign-produced tech including tiktok. the popular app is owned by bytedance, a tech company based in china. in addition to data collection, u.s. lawmakers are concerned about the app's effect on young americans mental health but aoc says the u.s. should focus on passing new data protection laws instead. listen. >> major social media companies are allowed to collect troves of deeply personal data about you that you don't know about without really any significant regulation what so ever. in fact, the united states so one of the only developed nations in the world that has no
5:16 am
significant data or privacy protection laws on the books. if we want to make a decision as significant as banning tiktok , and we believe or someone believes that there's really important information that the public deserves to know about why such a decision will be justified, that information should be shared with the public as well. reporter: more than two dozen states have already banned the app on all government devices. will, rachel, pete? rachel: wow. this has been an interesting topic, because i generally don't agree with aoc on a lot of things. i do agree that data protection is something we need to focus on i'm also going to say that i feel just as concerned about the censorship, about the sort of curated messages that young people are getting on our american platforms as well. will: i agree. rachel: and by the way if they have mental health issues they aren't just getting it from tiktok, from all of the other places. pete: how likely is it that that
5:17 am
passes? rachel: so will and rachel agree with it? pete: in part. no, no, because part of it, she doesn't want to ban tiktok. she wants data privacy which the government we see how great they are at that. >> and tiktok has been working with the treasury department which is a committee that looks at how these companies that are owned by foreign entities or not entities but you know, foreign investors and whatnot, how they can work to protect national security so tiktok has worked to create this program called the texas project, where they worked to move all u.s. data to servers in the united states, so tiktok is saying now, you know, u.s. data is protected. it's here in the united states, but at the same time, you know, china's not going to say hi, excuse me. can we please have your data. it's covert. pete: of course it sounds like the most chinese idea possible. it's like we need to make this sound it american. let's call it the "texas projec" rachel: [laughter] i love it. pete: that's what you'd think of those americans will be convinc ed it's all safe. rachel: the liberty project.
5:18 am
will: yeah, i don't know that aoc is correct by the way we've never banned a social media platform. while it might not have been a direct government decision i suspect it was direct government influence for parler to be obliterated from the internet. rachel: very interesting. great point, will. >> and about just the other social media apps that influence children, you're right. there are other social media app s that our kids are watching and seeing contents on so it's not just tiktok, it's instagram and facebook and parents have to -- rachel: i think what concerns america sia degree. tiktok probably bad, but we also have to, i'm more concerned there are american companies that are censoring. pete: let's start by getting foreign companies definitely trying to destroy our kids and then figure out how we deal with american companies. can we start with that? rachel: that's fair enough. [laughter] pete: now we have to get to this it's almost will's birthday so we asked you and our viewers, what is your favorite thing
5:19 am
about will cain? rachel: i like this. pete: patty in virginia writes will, i love how you find the humor in things and i love your smile and laugh. will: patty, thank you. pete: i hope your birthday is awesome as you are. will: thank you, patty. rachel: i love how uncomfortable this is. rachel: perry says will is a true american patriot. will: thank you. pete: angela from staten island adding will is always a classic. that's what you see on camera. will: am i? pete: happy birthday. rachel: and the prices say we love will's ability to keep that boyish maybe devilish smile on his face, even as he's arguing how pete and rachel cheated. that's a real fan there. will: winners don't make arguments do they? i should stop. i'm always working the refs. pete: [laughter] will: okay, thank you, all.
5:20 am
we all truly appreciate our fox & friends viewers and i appreciate that message this morning, thank you. pete: for sure. will: coming up shark tanks kevin o'leary. rachel: starbucks workers are protesting for a living wage despite already making over $17 and hour. ben domenech once worked for starbucks. maybe he will make us coffee. what the? good morning hallow makes it easy to build a daily habit of prayer and meditation want to start with a five minute daily gospel? sure. take a deep breath and focus your attention on god in the name of the father, and and of the son and of the holy spirit. amen.
5:21 am
5:22 am
i screwed up. mhm. i got us t-mobile home internet. now cell phone users have priority over us. and your marriage survived that? you can almost feel the drag when people walk by with their phones. oh i can't hear you... you're froze-- ladies, please! you put it on airplane mode when you pass our house. i was trying to work. we're workin' it too. yeah! work it girl! woo! i want to hear you say it out loud. well, i could switch us to xfinity.
5:23 am
those smiles. that's why i do what i do. that and the paycheck.
5:24 am
rachel: starbucks workers are on strike again demanding liveable wages while making $17.50 an hour with benefits. our next guest worked at starbucks as a teenager. he joins us now with his thoughts on the protest. fox news contributor and the spectator editor at-large, ben domenech. ben? i had no idea you were a barista so what do you make of this? >> [laughter] well first off, i have to say it was a very very long time ago. it was still in the 90s and so the menu was completely different. i had a wonderful experience i would say though in that very early job as a teenager working at starbucks. they paid above minimum wage back then. they pay even more now, and they also offered a bunch of different benefits when it came
5:25 am
to both the education side, the healthcare side, even retirement, and, you know, i have a lot of fond memories from that being my first real big corporate job, other than working, mowing lawns and things like that like a normal teenager and the thing is jobs like that really should be the kind of things that we see a lot of people go into at that stage of life. the idea that they're going to be kind of in the lifetime of that job is not necessarily the case. it's not likely to be the case, but it's important that they take the values and experience of having to get up super-early, coming home, smelling like stale coffee and that kind of thing and take the experience and learn and gain from it. i think that this whole protest is very ridiculous. starbucks is already a very generous company when it comes to the way they pay people and i think this is something that really should be an example of how we've taken away a lot of these entry level jobs that have been very valuable for people across america. rachel: it's where you learn how to work and by the way you now
5:26 am
know how to make a mean cup of coffee for your beautiful wife which is also a perk, no pun intended. >> [laughter] rachel: so let's move to topic two, because we know that the democrat party has a hispanic problem. now it looks like they have an asian problem, because we're seeing that asian-americans, their support for republicans is surging. take a look at this. back in 2016, 18% for republican s, then 30% in 2020. now, it's up to 32%. what do you make of that? >> well, rachel, i think one of the big dynamics here is the ramifications of democrats embracing really lawless policies and having those policies affect people who are working and living in areas of cities, along with their embrace of this anti-merit-based approach to education and toward rewarding students. we all know that many examples of situations where equity-based
5:27 am
arguments across the country are actually resulting in killing the kind of merit-based awards, scholarships and achievements that have historically, you know , been one that a lot of asian students, a lot of student s who are children of immigrants, a good example be national geographic during the pandemic canceling the geography bee under the name of some kind of equity-based thing because frankly, it was a lot of asian students who were winning those awards. this is ridiculous. it's taking away the kind of awards that people want to be able to strive for and earn based on their own merit and totally anti-thetical to the american idea. rachel: it's also robbing parent s to learn from another culture. family cohesion and a culture that rewards and focuses on hard work and the role of the mother and helping their kids after school and that's part of the asian culture with homework and so forth. these moms and dads have a lot to teach all of us.
5:28 am
we should take the best of everybodi's culture and that's something they are doing right we could learn from. they are doing it, it's merited- based as you said. ben, so great having you. we'll have to have you back again. >> great to be with you. rachel: all right maybe he will make me coffee. up next, will sits down with our featured friend, devin still, the nfl star takes his life lessons with his family after his daughter's cancer diagnosis. it's a great interview, you don't want to miss it. will: lea, you were four years old when you were diagnosed. do you remember that time? do you remember being diagnosed? >> i knew something bad was happening, because of how my family was, but i didn't know what cancer was or what it could do. nicorette knows quitting smoking is freaking hard. you get advice like... just stop. go for a run. go for ten runs. run a marathon. instead, start small with nicorette,

rachel: it's time for our featured friend segment of the month. a chance to get to know some of the faces that you regularly see on the show. pete: this week, will had a chance to visit texas and spend some time with former cincinnati bengals defense ever end devon still. will: he's also had to tackle a lot of challenges in life that had been thrown at him including a big one. his daughter lea at the age of four being diagnosed with cancer take a look. you know devon still from the nfl but today we're here in houston, texas and we'll start the day with a little boxing. >> oh, you showed up. you didn't back out on me. will: of course, good morning. >> good morning. will: right here. this morning during boxing you were talking about, it's always
5:34 am
been something that's been apart of your life growing up. you watch boxing with your dad. >> yeah, and when i retired from the nfl, i still wanted to try to find ways to stay active, to stay engaged in sports so i decided to pick-up boxing. will: let's go back to that childhood and delaware. what was it like growing up? >> it was definitely a struggle but we always had that love and nurturing that a lot of kids need for parents in order to grow up and thrive. will: what was the struggle? >> financially. it was a struggle financially. will: when did you first realize hey, i'm pretty good at football. >> it was probably at the end of my sophomore year. by the time i ended my junior year, i had over 50 scholarships will: 212? >> yeah. will: you you are drafted into the second round of the cincinnati bengals. >> the fact my name wasn't called the first day didn't matter. will: at your draft party something else happened? >> yes one of the best things in my life. my friend introduced me to my
5:35 am
soon-to-be wife and we started to build a relationship and it was one of the best decisions i think i ever made because shows is one of the best thing that ever happened to me. will: you both have a podcast. you have a studio in the house? >> we're so excited that you guys are tuning in today with us will: what made you guys decide to do relationships? >> well the name speaks for itself. we wanted to bring the real back to relationships. a lot of days especially on social media now days you see a lot of people putting up a facade. they want the picture perfect relationship. they want to show the picture perfect pictures and everything but we wanted to be honest. >> when lea was diagnosed with cancer, a lot of the focus was on me and lea. one of the true pillars or foundations was asha. >> i'm also promising to be by your side every step of the way. lea was from a previous relationship and the way she was able to step up during that time when it would have been easy for her to walk away it was a bless together have her in my life. will: as we sit here today how lauren: does lea have to go to
5:36 am
the hospital? >> we're at the point where we only got to go once a year and we actually have a doctor's appointment today. will: we're here at texas children's hospital in houston. >> the largest children's cancer and blood disorder clinic in the country. >> high risk stage iv neuroblastoma. one of the toughest diseases we have to treat. will: you were four years old when diagnosed. do you remember that time? do you remember being diagnosed? >> i knew that something bad was happening, because of how my family was, but i didn't know like what cancer was or what it could do. will: what do you feel when you walk back in here? >> well, it's not like bad, because there were good times in the hospital. like the trash can, we would do this basketball thing. will: so this weekend will be your eighth year anniversary. >> yes. will: since you went into remission for cancer. >> uh-huh. will: how does that make you feel? >> it makes me feel really good , because i've come a long way. >> it was amazing when she first started playing soccer
5:37 am
because those milestones were in jeopardy when your child is diagnosed with cancer. i got to see what my parents felt like when i was growing up. what they felt like being in this dance and just being proud of the child. >> i hate being known as the girl that had cancer. will: what do you want to be known as? >> i want to be known as leah, but now i'm known as devil devon still's daughter. will: i know a big thing for you and part of the still strong foundation is focusing on parents and mental health. i mean, you were in the hospital for a long time as well. >> as parents i don't think you really understand the changes you're going to go through psych logically so that was definitely tough to have to deal with and i wanted to be able to take my experience with leah battling cancer and my experience in the mental health field to help families deal with cancer. will: he's helped a lot of families . >> this man was put on earth not just to be a famous football player but in a much bigger world now is to help with the mental health of our
5:38 am
patients and their families. will: as you sit here today you look back you hear this all the time and you wonder, you know, if it can be true. maybe god had a different plan for you. >> i honestly believe that is true. the way that my life is turning out. the one thing that i had to learn is to learn how to let go of the things that happened to me and happened to my family, but also, let go of the things that didn't happen for me. when i was able to let go of that, i was able to focus on the future and just embrace what life had for me and it's just turned out, my life, i tell my wife all the time sometimes i wake up and i can't believe the things that, you know, we went through but the things that we've been able to accomplish together. it's just really been a rollercoaster and if i would have gave up when things got hard i wouldn't be able to experience all of the blessings we experiencing right now. will: you know, it's maybe good , so what is today? the 26th? rachel: uh-huh. will: yesterday was the 25th. that is the official eight year anniversary of leah being free from cancer, remission. rachel: that is remarkable.
5:39 am
what a great story. he seems like such a just really open, honest person. will: introspective, wise. all three of us have had a child in the hospital to some degree and it's really remarkable. his still strong foundation which you can find stillstrong foundation.org, he focused on the parents too, because it really does a number on a parent to have a kid in a hospital. you suffer as well in a different way, clearly, but it changes you. pete: changes your priorities a lot. will: change for him, what he does for a living. now hings sharing it. he's got curriculum he shares. he went and got his masters at p enn, in positive resilient psychology. he has the podcast with his wife i said to him, man, and i mean this. you have as much wisdom as anyone i've ever met in this job. what do you do with all of that? he says i just do my best to share it now. rachel: a podcast is an awesome way for him to share it. like they said the truth about how relationships work, i'm sure that relationship was pretty
5:40 am

rachel: we are back with a fox weather alert at least 26 people are dead after an outbreak of tornadoes devastated parts of the south and now we are track ing even more possible tornadoes. chief meteorologist rick reichmuth has the latest fox weather forecast. rick: already really active morning and i think we'll see that more throughout the day as the day heats up. that energy will increase and give more juice for potential more tornadoes but we had one this morning in the grange, georgia that's just to the west of now where we've got this flooding concern over there closer to the alabama border but there are reports of trees down and homes and people trapped and emergency workers are in there trying to rescue people. that's going on this morning. any of these lines of storms here, we've had two of them that have had confirmed tornadoes this morning. right now, no tornadoes but we are seeing some flooding from draining of rain going on right there and just to the west of augusta severe thunderstorms going on. tornado watch in effect until noon. i think we'll see that reissued later on again after this , and

that severe weather goes on throughout the day today, maybe even back again across parts of mississippi and into louisiana. that i think will be more of an afternoon event there. will? over to you. will: thank you, rick. so, banks across the country fear uncertainty in the wake of the svb collapse, but community banks are painting a different picture. at least in north dakota. the bank of north dakota is the only government-owned general service bank in the united states and our next guest says its success sudden be noted. mr. wonderful is here with the insight, kevin o'leary, chairman of o'leary ventures joins us now. kevin, glad to have you. i've seen you say this. i don't think it's disconnected. i think i saw you say i would not do business in california. now i hear you say look what's happening in north dakota, it's a success. explain. >> yes, there are states that are go-to states and no-go states. bad policy, high taxes in new york, massachusetts, new jersey and of course california. they aren't really in business.
5:46 am
the regulatory environment is so unstable there. that's when you start to look at new places to invest capital, and that's when i stumbled into north dakota. very pro-business. a remarkable economy. fastest growing gdp per-capita. third largest oil and energy producer in america and a state with its own sovereign bank, setup in 1919. who knew an incredible situation there, and so why you care about that is regional banks were setup decades ago, 40, 50, 60 year ago to take care of the local economy. in the case of north dakota, farmers there were unhappy with the interest rates being charged in minnesota, so what they did is they setup their own bank. they got their own charters. only one, so wow does that work. will: so okay, kevin, i love what you have said so far, but i'm having trouble reconciling what you just said with something i've heard you say in several locations recently including here ot world.
5:47 am
there was no digital age at all, and people needed the touch point of a bank in their community. obviously, that's completely changed because 99% of banking today is done online. there's a whole generation of people post-pandemic who have never been in a branch in a regional bank or any bank, so the question becomes now and the narrative is quickly looking at all of this because of these failures what do we need tiny regional banks for in the first place? will: so kevin, i like what you had to say about no-go and pro- business and anti-business states talking about the laboratories of democracy. why not the same thing for banks we need small regional banks to have that connection to a community like you just pointed out in north dakota. >> well, i have no problem with that statement, if you think and you have a state, let's take california first. if you believe you need regional
5:48 am
banks in california to support the uniqueness of its economy which is supposedly tech- oriented, why do i as a farmer in florida have to bail you out when you blow up your bank like the silicon valley bank? i don't want to own that. the state should eat that. will: okay. >> if you want to have tiny regional banks in the state let the state maintain those. just like they do in north dakota. will: i like that. i like that statement, so i'm asking this. are you adopting an absolute no- bail-out proposition or principle? or are you arguing the same as janet yellen, we bail out the big banks but not the small banks. >> there's too big to fail concept around money center banks. there's an imputed bailout in there even though we know the max is 250,000. no one is going to let a money center bank go to zero and the whole economy knows that. the whole world knows that. i couldn't care less what happens to first republic or silicon valley bank or signature bank. they can go to zero because they are poorly managed.
5:49 am
if you run a bank with idiots it's going to go to zero and that's exactly what happened. doesn't change the economy in any way. however, it's fair, because we are a democracy. if you wish to support tiny regional banks in your state, you eat them. you own it. they figured that out. they are responsible in north dakota. the bank of noter does not compete with the regional banks it supports them. i don't want to take this. will: i want to have a deeper conversation with you. i agree let idiots pay for their decisions but that should apply for the big as well as small guys and if we don't apply that principle, we are effectively killing the little guys and shoving all of the customers to the big guys. i'm on fox & friends this morning and so are you and so our time is tight but i would love to have that conversation with you deeper and longer in the future kevin o'leary. >> absolutely. great speaking with you. will: thanks, kevin. up next, selena gomez versus

my pop culture roundup, and kat timpf is here to help us get going so starting it off, after everything they've put their family through, meghan markle and prince harry are asking to be included in the royal family special moment, at king charles coronation which is the iconic balcony wave. they are also holding out to give their rsvp because they also want little prince archie's birthday to be recognized because it's on that day. >> we don't know how likely it is. i've seen some sources saying there's no way this will happen. some are saying it very well may happen. i'm just shocked at the absolute boldness of it all. rachel: yes! >> hey, now that i've completely just, you know, tried to make all of this money by smearing every single one of you , i would love to just come hang out and you know make it seem like everything is okay. i don't know how they could ever move past something like that. i mean, they said that they hated the daily mail. they hated all of this attention
5:55 am
they love attention and basically become the daily mail by you hated all of these rumors and sorts of things surrounding you. you're spreading a bunch of trash all about your own family. rachel: and you want to make the coronation about their kid's birthday so let's move on to the next one because this is interesting. hong kong banned a slasher film that featured winnee the pooh , because it's compared to xi-jinping. do you think they look alike? >> i don't see it. rachel: i do. do you think that our government should use this sensitivity that xi-jinping has as some sort of something to get back at china, get a one-up on them? >> i think this has been going on for a while with winnie the pooh, and what's interesting though is in hong kong specifically, people see that as a concern in terms of the shrinking sort of freedom s in that area especially when it comes to speech and censorship. rachel: i see it, kat. i'm down with this. all right, stay right there.
