>> todd: a fox news alert, the air national guardsman arrested for ecposing secrets will appear in court today. jack teixeira was led out of his home at gunpoint for one of the biggest security breaches in history. you are watching "fox and

friends first," i'm todd piro. >> ashley: i'm ashley strohmier. we are learning the suspect was just 21 years old and held highest level of security clearance. he shared the documents on thug. he is facing charges under the espionage act. shall ifs say he shared the documents in that chat room. alexandria hoff is live with more. alex. >> alexandria: 21, his age is striking. he was part of the intelligence in cape cod, charged with removal of defense information. agents descended on the 21 year old's home yesterday. teixeira was placed into custody outside without incident.

>> the justice department arrested jack teixeira in connection with investigation into alleged unauthorized removal, and transmissal of classified information. >> we have stringent guidelines in place for safeguarding classified and sensitive information. this was a deliberate criminal act. >> alexandria: this is interesting, source tells fox news plans to arrest teixeira was accelerated as "new york times" said he was leader of a discord gaming groups. fellow users spreading the leaks even further. documents contain key intel on the war in ukraine like maps with positions of ukrainian troops and china role in helping russia. adversaries and allies and top secret planning.

u.s. officials told fox news this breach could be bigger than the edward snowden case. president biden is less concerned. >> are you concerned about the leak? >> i'm not concerned about the leak. i'm concerned that it happen issue but there is nothing contemporaneous i'm aware of that is great consequence. >> alexandria: congressman mike turner disagrees with that, claiming the house intelligence committee will examine why this happened, why it went unnoticed and how to prevent future breaches. investigators are looking at others who may have been involved. >> todd: alexandria hoff, thank you. i've been thinking about this story over the last 24 hours and i cannot think of a story for which i have more and more questions as the story unfolds.

i'm ranking top three, one, why was the main-stream media more effective finding this guy than our own government. two, why haven't we found the supreme court leaker yet? you and i were talking about that, that is almost a year and this was couple days before the fbi knew and they caught the guy quickly. three, as far as the leaker, how does a 21-year-old kid, he's a kid, look at him, have access to top-level information. >> ashley: i wonder at any point in his thinking, you hope there was thinking by him posting in this chat room. what if somebody on the other end would have been a spy or someone pretending to be somebody else, you don't know who is on the other end? >> todd: he knew there were russians on the other side. >> ashley: he didn't care, he

was reading a book when he was arrested. he knew this was going on, unless you have been living under a rock for the past week, only so many different people this could have been, didn't care, shorts on reading a book. >> todd: i use the phrase nuance mess. the president, not a big die and the fbi and cia, they can speedup their hustle and find people when they want to. when it came to domestic terrorist known as parents, they were on them like white on rice. other things, people act with impunity and not get caught. we've been talking for a while, i don't know if i want information out in its entirety. a lot of information should have remained secret, like how we get intel. information like ukraine is not

doing as well as the government and mainstream media are leading us on to believe. why is the government misleading something like that? i feel like that is something you and i and american people would want to know. >> ashley: not only that, we talked about this before and i didn't know if i would get pushback from you on it or not, should we even be privy to this information? is it our business? are we just so entitled thinking we have to know every move, is that causing problems? jonathan gilliam says the media should stay out of this, let law enforcement and feds do their job and then release the information. is this doing more harm than good? >> todd: depends what information, with regard to sources and methods, we should not know about that, that should be kept secret. when it comes to how is the

ukraine war doing, so the american people can decide to -- >> ashley: billions of dollars from taxpayers. >> todd: should we put pressure to not give that money or give more, we need that information. >> ashley: a lot to unpack there. the murder of bob lee cash app, the killer may not have been who we thought, wait until you hear who was taken into custody. >> todd: and site of the democratic national convention, no better place to tell the story of joe biden and kamala harris, the big issue, this will not come cheap. wait until you see the estimated security tab. liberty mutual customizes your car insurance so you only pay for what you need. with the money we saved, we tried electric unicycles. i think i've got it! doggy-paddle! only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ this isn't charmin!

>> ashley: police just arrested a tech executive for murder of cash app founder bob lee who was stabbed to death in san francisco earlier this month. >> todd: brooke singman has the latest. >> brooke: that's right. nearly two weeks after the stabbing of bob lee, police have a suspect in custody, nima momeni was arrested nine miles from where the murder took

place. the suspect was no stranger to the millionaire. listen. >> we can confirm mr. lee and mr. momeni knew each other. mr. momeni was taken into custody without incident in emeryville and booked with murder. >> the pair was seen entering the suspect's car 2:30 a.m. and got into a confrontation just before lee was stabbed to death. security cameras caught lee's final moments as he begged for help after the attack before he died in the hospital. elon musk putting out this tweet morning after the murder. violent crime in san francisco is horrific and attackers are often released immediately, is the city taking action to incarcerate?

>> watch. >> i must point out reckless and irresponsible statements like those contained in mr. musk's tweet that assumed incorrect circumstances about mr. lee's death serve to mislead the world and perceptions of san francisco and also negatively impact the pursuit of justice for victims of crime. >> brooke: momeni faces first degree murder charge and being held at san francisco county jail without bail. >> todd: the 2024 democratic national convention headed to chicago and it won't be cheap, stro, estimated price tag 90 million with big portion going to security, thanks to violent crime in the city. >> ashley: william joins us now, it is obvious democrats know that crime is so bad in the city, that is why they are taking up that number for

security. what do you think? >> thank you, ashley, chicago is in a death spiral and the dnc is throwing a party. in 2020, democratic leaders did nothing to protect citizens from race riots and looting and refused to call the national guard and now they will do everything they can to protect dnc officials, seems like their priorities are out of whack. >> todd: the numbers aren'ts good for chicago year over year and again, this is the last two years, 2022 to 2023, motor vehicle theft up 135%, general nest 22%, robbery 15%, burglary 6%. do you think chicago will move out the homeless and try to move out as much crime as possible like deep blue cities do when they have a big event like l.a. with the super bowl, so on and

so forth? >> yeah, that is typically what they do to try to throw a fresh coat of paint on if and leave residents of chicago to fend for themselves. our new mayor, mayor johnson has stated that defunding the police is a policy goal of his, yet heun was to use federal dollars to protect dnc officials and vip's. it just goes to show there is hypocrisy and it is dangerous for the people of chicago. we're going to have obvious protests. this is going to force already very limited police resources to be focused on protecting dnc big wigs and party goers while regular chicagoans are left to fend for themselves as they have for years now. >> ashley: when biden went to the border at el paso, they

cleaned that up, probably the same type of situation. why chicago? is this the democrats move to make america think it is really not as bad at the media says? >> they are going to be shining a big spotlight on a huge problem in chicago. ma mayor lightfoot revoked my media credential because i was asking obvious questions about crime and economic decline of chicago. my credentials are still in federal court, william jay kelly.com, if you want to read our federal lawsuit. that alone would be a red flag that chicago is not ready for reform, as they say. the democrat leaders don't really care about actual the rights of reporters or citizens, the safety of citizens and yet they want to throw a party and

they just are expecting the media to somehow say yes, this is exactly what the rest of america should look like, the city of chicago. as lifelong residents, i can tell you that would not be good. >> todd: your main takeaway, this happening for the elite while the commonfolk suffering, also get bored out there. history of chicago democratic national convention, it is not strong, it is a sorted history. thanks. more bad news for bud light, top execs at anheuser-busch might not have known about the controversial partnership with a transgender influencer before it went public. wait until you hear what else is happening in the company. >> ashley: looking for your new favorite beer, two veterans turned brewery owners will tell us about their patriotic

brewery in vermont. >> todd: kevin, how does your mission differ from other alcohol brands like the beer company i just mentioned and make even jack daniels? >> the great thing about america, everybody makes their own choices. we embrace our own community, just like 14th star, we get ourselves in the community and operate. we try to be as inclusive as possible to the community and people can choose where they go and beer they want to drink. >> todd: when you look at your commitment to giving back to veterans and first responders, which is what you do, do you scratch your head as to why a corporation would make a decision to focus on such a tiny segment and pannedor to that segment at risk of losing their core base? does that make sense to you as small business owner? >> we operate on different

level, corporate america has all of america to worry about, as small brewery, we focus on being kind to our community. we make choices. they get to make their choices. in the military, you make your choices and live with them. >> todd: steve, i will go off book here focus on weekend plans, what is your best beer? >> code name, hazy, crushable session ipa, i have it here, a product shot. recommend you find that if you are in one of the nine states we're? >> todd: is connecticut one of the nine states? >> it is. >> todd: there we go. kevin, your best brew? >> our beer is freedom machine, hazy ipa, with hops, $3 of every pound of hops are donated to

>> todd: a fox news alert, the air national guardsman arrested for exposing our nation's intel secrets set to appear in court today. the fbi leading jack teixeira out of his massachusetts home at gunpoint for one of the most serious security breaches in

history. he held the highest level security clearance granted and shared the documents in thug shaker central, talking about war in ukraine, intelligence on adversaries and allies and top secret planning. teixeira will appear in court on espionage charges today. >> ashley: the media played a big role in tracking him down and president biden downplayed the breach altogether. >> what about the breach? >> i'm not concerned about the leak, i'm concerned it happened, but nothing contemporaneous i'm aware of great consequence. >> ashley: fox news contributor joe concha joins us, is this incompetence on biden or doesn't care how bad it looks that a

21-year-old caused so much chaos and it looked so easy. >> joe: how does a 21 year old have highest level of clearance to documents that get leaked and president of the united states saying this is no big deal. this is a very big deal. the president is trying to downplay it, nobody is buying this. the documents show american troops are fight russian troops? if that is happening, this is how world wars start. china backs russia, we back ukraine, where is nato in this and why is the president of the united states not being transparent in terms of what our role is here, this could escalate between nuclear powers could be out of control. >> todd: it is beyond transparency, for the president of the united states to give an

answer that didn't jibe with his spokespeople. answer like that is insane. there has been talk about whether or not the media should be more focused on the contents of the document, a lot of different camps on this. >> joe: concentrating on who the leaker is. find the leaker, i want to know about the documents and what other documents are out there. this is all this person had access to, this is scary stuff. we're in cable news and people use hyperbole, all the time, i try not to because after a while people stop listening. we need to know more, this could lead to a world war. >> todd: without disclosing methods and procedures, we don't want to know who the spies are and get them in trouble and potentially killed, but

understanding are ukrainians winning the war or not. >> ashley: the people are supporting it. >> joe: it appears to be a stalemate in eastern ukraine, russians can't get to kyiv and ukrainians don't appear to be winning and russia doesn't seem to be winning, we could be talking about this five years from now. >> ashley: there are people who don't care what happens in ukraine and that issin foo, people should care when they pay their taxes this week, that is where their money is going. another frustrating part hunter biden trip to ireland is raising questions after revelation his firm sought irish -- then ceo of

innin china, russia, ireland, what service does somebody like him provide? >> todd: the pit bull of foreign influence. hud spa is not a strong enough word. it is not illegal under the law, so concerning regardless and we haven't gotten to the full law on this. before we say it is not illegal, more information needs to come out in the wash. >> joe: china is our biggest adversary and hunter biden profited for services, james biden or the niece of joe biden, as well, a guidance counselor. halle. why is he not standing up to china? perhaps he may be compromised,

maybe he's not, journalists should pursue the story, instead, we're the only ones talking about it. any time something like this pops up, they ignore and sweep it under the rug. they do say apparently this is not taxpayer funded, this trip. who knows, i don't know what to believe from this administration or family. >> joe: well, hunter biden can afford it from the millions in paintings, pay for a trip to dublin. >> todd: what does it say about how serious the white house takes investigations by james comer and the like, they would be able to trot hunter out there and have him work as the coms department of the white house. >> joe: "new york times," abc, cbs, they do not cover it, we can do whatever we want.

reason for concern, ai has a moral hazard. when you have help, when you have a machine doing part of medical interpretation, there is concern the doctor may be less vigilant, more reliant on ai, it would be like flying a plane without pilot and people are not ready for that. the role for ai is to go through a doctor's notes and suggest diagnosis on the side of the screen. >> ashley: i don't like it and on top of diagnosing patients, the software takes doctor notes and analyzes work to ensure medical examinations are thorough. >> todd: over/under on amount of times we said i do not like it. super pact supporting ron desantis rolling out first national ad, never back down. political action committee hint at desantis's plans for perspective 2024 ad featuring

the streets. 95%. you guys are nothing but hypocrites. you don't care about this place. >> former michigan gubernatorial candidates tudor dixon joins us now. that was exclusive video to "fox & friends first." thank you for sharing that with us. give us a back story. why in light of everything we know about china trying to influence and infiltrate the united states of america is that still happening? >> i think because people really don't understand the threat there. and, as you see, those people didn't understand even that this company was coming into their town until we expose they have connections to the chinese communist party. once they started to see that they started to ask environmental questions. a lot of these chemicals aren't approved by the e.p.a. they are won deferral if it's safe in their town. getting heated in michigan. >> ashley: i'm from the midwest. i know how heated people in the midwest get especially when they feel like they are getting

encroached on in situations like this. is there any chance this can be stopped or is this a done deal. >> no. i think it is getting stopped right now. because they took it off of the senate probations meeting agenda yesterday i think it was. and now they are saying they may be back next week. they had two other factories that were on and they went with that money. so now it looks like they are considering maybe taking it off, even in michigan economic development corporation has said they have decided to do more vetting now for these companies, which is, to me, this is a huge win because people are getting it. >> they should have been doing the vetting beforehand. this should have never happened. >> yes, that's true. >> todd: what always strikes me when you look at the people in that video. those are the people hillary clinton called the deplorables. the people coastal elite refers toes a the flyover people and flyover states. yet, they know this is a bad idea. they are real americans. they get the sense. who keeps pushing this stuff besides the chinese?

i can't imagine caring about our country, caring about preserving american freedom and american values and being like oh, no, we need the money so china, come on over? >> people who have never worked in a factory. people who don't know how dangerous it is and the safety requirements that we have to have and the environmental tall requirements that we are held to. those people don't get it. the elites of the country think that you can bring in any jobs and they're just romanced by the jobs. they don't get how important it is to actually take care of the community and the nation because the national security implications here are off the charts. >> ashley: talk to us 'a little bit about -- you talk about how dangerous it is to work in these factories. i get it. these people get it. for people who don't. talk about not only that but how dangerous it is to have our adversaries on u.s. soil. >> well, in the united states, we have very strict environmental protections in place and so folks that work in factories they know you have to have certain safety equipment that you can't pollute, you can't be breathing in these

fumes, however, we know that china is the number one polluter in the entire world. they have clear ties to the chinese communist party on their american website. it's incredibly dangerous to have them come in. and so when you talk about the chinese ties, their parent company, they parent company connected to the ccp. when you look at their american company, in english, on their american company bylaws it says they have to have a connection to the ccp in the company in michigan infiltrating the grassroots of the company. so you know that this is the communist party saying we can get a foot hold in the very center of the country right on the edge of canada. >> you had notable battles with gretchen whitmer. she obviously has eyes on the witness presidency. where is she in this. >> she hasn't come out publicly. we have rumor behind the scenes she said we need to vet things more now. she initially had when she lost the ford deal that was a big deal in michigan. $11 billion plant that went to

kentucky and tennessee it. seems as though the message after that was get whatever we can. >> todd: interesting. tudor dixon, we can't thank you enough for come in. this is an important issue. you may be watching this and thinking this is just in michigan. if this could happen throughout the world and country, that's really scary. >> yes. this is a united states issue. >> ashley: it is. tudor, thank you. and with that "fox & friends" starts right now. have a good weekend. >> i'm not concerned about the way. >> air national guard member arrested. >> 21 years old. >> it is criminal, espionage against the united states. >> mr. lee and mr. mow mini new each other. >> the suspect in custody the founder of his own tech company. >> there was a connection. >> this doesn't take away from the large crime problem in san francisco. >> have all members voted. >> desantis signs heartbeat bill in to law.
