>> todd: a fox news alert. governor ron desantis making news in israel this morning as he continues his world tour while america waits for a possible announcement on a 2024 presidential run. >> governor desantis: there has not been anything set, i've been focused on this mission we're doing. we will pretty much make it

around the world by the time we are done. if there is an announcement, that will come at the appropriate time. if anyone is telling you they know this or that, that is inaccurate, there has not been a decision made. >> todd: you're watching "fox and friends first," i'm todd piro. >> ashley: i'm ashley strohmier. governor desantis is trailing donald trump, nikki haley and vivek ramaswamy in single digits and on the other side, r.f.k. is claiming 19% of democratic primary voters this stage of the race. republican candidate vivek ramaswamy is here in new york this morning and will be talking about the state of the race and top issues at hand. >> todd: we begin with brooke singman has who has more on all of it. >> brooke: ron desantis talked about the lawsuit die disney accusing him of government

retaliation, listen to this. >> governor desantis: that arrangement was not good for the state of florida. we did not think that is continue and brought accountability. the idea being pro-business means giving companies their own government, that is not what a free market is all about, last i checked. [applause] >> governor desantis: they have been treated much different than universal, sea world and other places. they do not want to pay the same taxes as everyonel and want to control things without proper oversight. >> brooke: poll shows 44% of americans have more positive view of desantis because of his battle with disney.

of course it all comes as reports suggest desantis will announce a 2024 presidential bid next month, joining former arkansas governor asa hutchinson, the latest to announce. new fox news poll putting desantis behind former president trump as the republican preference. here at home, president biden, who would be 82 at his second inauguration should he be re-elected is shrugging off concerns about his age. >> president biden: with regard to age, i can't say, if i guess how old i am, i can't say the number, it doesn't register with me. i can say one thing people will find out, they will see a race and judge if i have or don't have. >> brooke: president biden has a commanding lead for the democratic nomination. yesterday biden appeared to be using a detailed cheat sheet,

including the first reporter's question and picture. >> president biden: we will take a question, courtney from the los angeles times. >> thank you, mr. president. your top economic policy has been to build up competition within choo, are you damaging key ally to help your domestic politics ahead of the election? >> brooke: former white house secretary under president trump kayleigh mcenany calling out the special treatment by the media. >> kayleigh: the idea that sipresidential press conference, given questions ahead of time and write it down, that is inconceivable thought to me as a former press secretary. to biden, you are socializing in the west wing, you are not true members of the press if you are doing that. >> ashley: interesting string of

events. thank you. hunter biden attorneys meeting with the doj demanding updates on the probe into his business affairs. he is facing felony tack fraud and making false statements while purchasing a gun. house republicans are investigating him and his family alleging they raked in millions from foreign investments. the white house and hunter biden's counsel deny wrongdoing. >> todd: and showdown with president biden after the house passed speaker mccarthy's bill by two votes. heads to senate, where it is unlikely to gain approval with democrats having majority there. it would raise the debt ceiling to 31 billion. it is cutting discretionary spending over 10 years, would eshg eliminate 80 billion in the

irs funding and cancel joe biden's student loan forgiveness program. speaker mccarthy says it was essential for the economic recovery following the pandemic. watch. >> you want to limit the ability to government to grow so fast like it did on the democrats growing forward. cap growth each year for the next 10, save money by being smart. that money and billions of dollars sitting out there that covid never spent, we call that back so the american taxpayer can save money. help jobs moving forward, help supply chain and get our country moving again. by limitting the amount we spend, we curb inflation, that makes people stronger. >> todd: a terrible story, s-13

wonderful person. my friends, we all looked up to him and my mom and his relationship, they were like perfect. to take an innocent man's life away, we're confused why. why not take the car, take something, not him. this is are have, very, very hard for all of us. >> todd: understandable. what more can you tell us about your step-dad? >> he would do anything, he worked his butt off, do anything to put food on the table and make ends meet and make my mom happy. not just her, his family, me and my sister. he's a wonderful, amazing father, husband. he just wanted to live a happy life and retire on the beach

with my mom. my poor mom, i feel so bad for her. her heart is broken. i want her to be happy again. >> todd: just hearing you say that breaks everybody's heard who is watching right now. the cops called this man demonic. can you think of any reason why he would do something so evil to your step-dad if this was just a robbery? >> i don't know. they don't even know anybody out there, they just moved to the area not even a year ago. they stayed to themselves. he works eight to 10 hour days. it was his last delivery and he was going home to my mom. they don't really know anybody over there, period, it is uch such a random thing to do. i don't know what he's trying to

get at the point of that. now he's going to be behind bars for the rest of his life and i appreciate you guys being here for me and my family, i don't know what to say. >> todd: we want you to have this moment, hopefully it helps with your grief because i don't think anybody can understand or appreciate what you are going through right now. when you think of this murder and the fact that evil people like this exist among us, do you wonder, is anybody safe in america right now? >> i don't feel safe in this world at all. nobody does. especially after this incident. >> todd: this guy had a long rap sheet and should have been behind bars and he wasn't and your family are the ones that have to live with the

>> ashley: multiple counties in central texas losing power after getting hit with gusts of wind up to 90 miles per hour. >> todd: texans showing grapefruit size hail. today there will be severe weather warnings. janice dean has fox weather forecast. >> janice: storms eshg rupted last night. we have severe thunderstorm warnings in effect for coastal

louisiana, toward new orleans region. storms on the radar, this is active warnings. we do not have tornado watches, we are looking at risk for tornados from south texas, along the gulf coast and parts of florida toward the mississippi river valley. be aware, know where to get watches and warnings. heavy rainfall threat will run the risk of flash flooding for areas from north florida toward the mid-atlantic. florida rainfall totals since monday, over five inches. looking at the mid-atlantic over the next couple days, this will be a weather pattern we will not like for the east coast. rounds of rain and thunderstorms until tuesday. that is not good. if you have outdoor plans, this will not make you happy this weekend through sunday.

several inches of rain and flash flooding. we need the rain, but for outdoor plans, it is not wonderful. i'm sorry in advance. >> todd: i'm happy it will tamp down the pollen. >> janice: silver lining. >> todd: allergy season. president biden caught himself with a few cheat sheets at yesterday's press conference. one with name of officials and order of remarks. >> ashley: and the other was a photo and prewritten questions from the first one he called on. >> president biden: first question is courtney, los angeles times. >> thank you, mr. president. your top economic priority to build u.s. domestic manufacturing in competition within choo. are you damaging a key ally in the competition with china to help domestic politics ahead of the election? >> todd: joe concha joins us

now. what is worst, the president needing the jokes beforehand or the media giving them to him? >> joe: this president is the most protected, the most inaccessible president we've seen in modern times and yes, he did do a joint press conference yesterday with the leader of south korea. he is yet to do a solo press conference this entire year. it hasn't been since november because his handlers are petrified he can't do this well for extended period of time in terms of answering real questions. inflation is three times as high as when you took office, what do you plan to do about that?

we have a crime crisis in this country that we haven't seen since the 1990s. the border is a catastrophe, what actions will you take to secure it? a heck of a lot better than it is now. seeing test scores at a 30-year low. act test scores among american students. a thousand questions you could ask, they will never be answered. take questions from hand-picked reporters who will ask the questions he can survive through. it will go through the entire 2024 campaign where basement strategy is alive and well. >> ashley: we have to talk about kamala harris, axios reporting top officials are trying to reboot her image, even though 73% of americans view kamala

harris as unfavorable, how big of a job and how hard will this be for them? >> joe: that is the thing, you can't put humpty dumpty back together. she is patently inauthentic when she does public speaking and awkward to listen to in those situations. look at job performance. number one job was finding root cause of migration and fixing the crisis at the border and she gets below f minus on that front. most democrats will tell you they would happily replace her on the ticket tomorrow, that would alienate black and/or female voters if that occurred. the reason joe biden is running at this point, i think the original plan was biden runs in 2020 and passes the baton to his

president. now we have first female president and woman of color in that regard. after seeing the way she's performed, the way she's spoken in public events, the president is stuck with her and stuck now with joe biden because there is no baton to pass to at this point and that's where we are and that is why joe biden is running again because of the lack of an alternative, guys. >> todd: and jennifer grandholm supports efforts to implement all electric fleet in the military. listen. >> do you support the military adopting the ev fleet by 2030? >> i do and i think reducing violencea globally traded fossil fuel and we know the war in ukraine can jack up prices for people back home does not

contribute to energy security. >> todd: she wants to pay our number one military and economic adversary in china to convert our fleet to all electric, again, helping our number one adversary, are we trying to surrender to china? what is going on? >> joe: what is going on? why do you bow down to china when they inflicted covid on us out of one of their labs is the overwhelming conclusion at this point. 1.1 million americans having died at this point. test scores are the result of covid and we continue to kowtow to the ccp. if military goes electric, where will charging stations be located? todd, you are the big toe on

this show, can you answer that? >> todd: we do not have enough charging stations in wyoming, much less in the jungles we fight in. it is unconscionable. joe, we love you, thanks, joe. removing the word male and female from fifth grade curriculum, you will not believe what they are replacing them with. >> ashley: you might. a concerned dad joins us next. mmm, popcorn.

"fox and friends" is one of the first to shed the lights on the problem. i feel the schools are corrupted by wokeism and used to doctrinate instead of educate. i am part of a group of parents, students and parents for education, achievement and knowledge. we are trying to battle some corruption of our schools at a local level.

just focused on theessex school district. >> ashley: what made this the final straw? >> this wasn't, it was more when they were pushing back in october, pushing, using a transgender book, the 57 bus book to introduce the u.s. constitution in eighth grade class. they were saying this is how we introduce we the people. >> ashley: what are the kids saying about all this? when your kids came home and told you aboutic taking boy and girl out of the curriculum, what was their response? were they confused, mad, okay? >> it is more mad. they come home and almost laugh at the teachers for some of the insane stuff they are pushing. >> ashley: is the school

responding to anything? have you reached out to the school? have they tsaid anything to you? >> anything falls on deaf ears and they move on. >> ashley: yeah issue the left pushes, follow the science. why do they only push that when good for their narrative? >> i don't think the left follows the science, it is whatever is good for their narrative. >> ashley: yeah, i think a lot of people would agree. like i said, the schools are getting so hung up with removing male and female and don't forget the issue of pregnant person instead of pregnant women. we did reach out to essex western school district and have not heard back from them. thank you for your time this morning. >> you're welcome. >> ashley: this week we showed this amazing moment that has

get out and say, you know, just play out your days, play as long as you can, if you are a minor league guy, that is fine. play until they take the jersey off. i didn't expect any of this to blowup the way it did. it is just really cool for me and i keep seeing my mom on there and it was special to share with my family, my three brothers were there. my sister, my brothers watching back at home. i didn't expect any of this. i did it, so -- >> todd: what have your parents said to you about this whole experience? they have to be over the moon right now. >> they are just really proud. just a lot of i love yous, last night, a lot of tears.

just i never seen my dad cry, he was emotional last night. just special to share with them. they have been with me every step of the way. it has been probably harder for them to see me go through the struggles of the minor league grind for so long and then to finally reach my ultimate goal, i mean, it was cool to be able to see my mom so happy. i could just -- i know my mom and i could see the joy on her face, especially in all the videos, it is cool for me to be able to give them that, they deserve it as much as i do. >> that is cool for everybody. as far as the at-bat itself, you got a pitch count violation putting you down 0-2. i don't want to get you fined,

they had no accountability. no transparency. none of that and that arrangement was not good for the state of florida wanted we did not think that should continue. we have now brought accountability. the idea being pro-business

meaning giving companies their own governments. that is not what a free market is all about last i checked. in fact, -- in fact, they have been treated much different than universal, sea world, and all these other places. they don't want to have to pay the same taxes as everybody else and they want to be able to control things without proper oversight. >> todd: vivek ramaswamy running for president in the republican party and he joins us now. great to have you back on the program vivek. we need to be clear desantis has not launched a presidential campaign. all indications it will be next month. he is really walking a tight line on this. 44% of republicans said they had a more favorable view of the governor because of his battle with disney. that's less than 50%. same poll, 53% of voters support a political candidate backs law punish a company due to politics. you wrote a law "woke inc." good

or bad move by your competitor. >> where ron desantis really messed up here. i'm surprised one of the special privileges disney had was legislated under none other than ron desantis. he passed a political antidiscrimination statute saying that owners of website and internet companies, this includes disney could not discriminate based on the basis of viewpoints except they carved out disney. they said if you own a theme park greater than 25 acres in the state of florida that was carved out. ron desantis struck back at disney they enjoyed thee special protections. dirty secret is one of those crony capitalist protections was byron desantis himself. i'm surprised nobody picked up on this. that's the essence what's going on here. people say this is political retaliation no. this is special privileges under disney. the fact he passed into law some of those special privileges is really where people like his

critics ought to be pointing out. i'm competing against him in the race. >> todd: likely. >> i welcome him because he is basically all intents and purposes behaving like he is in the race. worth seeing the situation clearly one of those crony privileges was enacted byron desantis. that was his big mistake. >> ashley: big mistake on it. he is bringing accountability back to the company. which we have said time and time again republicans don't like, you know, all these laws and strict measures on companies but we do like accountability. we do have to get to this. you are running on america first 2.0 platform. i want to run some sound of a panel of voters we had on last hour they were talking of their fears of biden. >> i have a politicized cdc doesn't care about children's health or children's rights. i'm definitely worried. >> what i think is going to happen is more illegal

immigrants crossing the border and the breakdown of the rule of law. >> joe biden and kamala harris they want four more years to continue destroying the country is just a no for all of us. >> ashley: taking in consideration what they said that panel what does your first day in office look like with their concerns? >> i think first of all we use the military to secure our border. if we can use the military to secure somebody else's border, we can use it to secure our own. that's how you solve the border crisis and the fentanyl crisis. i'm looking at shutting down government agencies that get in the way. the u.s. department of education to the irs to the nuclear regulatory commission. we have talked about shutting down agencies and rebuilding them from scratch. that's why we are taking the america first agenda and my pain further than donald trump ever did. we are actually looking to take it the full distance. america first doesn't belong to donald trump. it doesn't belong to me. it belongs to the voters we just looked at. it belongs to the people of this

country if we are doing it on first principles and moral authority, we can go further with the agenda itself and lead a national revival instead of a national divorce. that's why i'm in this race. >> todd: randi weingarten making a being showing admission on capitol hill yesterday. let's listen to it quickly. >> did you suggest revisions to their operational strategy? >> what we suggested, sir, was ideas. >> do you remember how many edits that you suggested? >> we suggested -- we suggested concepts, sir. >> do you know how many edits were included? >> one. one. >> do you remember what that edit was? >> the reasonable accommodation issue. >> todd: you are a yale law grad. is this exhibit 1 a in your argument to get rid of the department of education and the cdc? >> absolutely. i would shut down the department of education which creates these toxic policies. use that money to fund school choice programs across this country so parents don't have to be held prisoners by teachers unions. the level of influence that

randi weingarten and teacher's unions held over the cdc is staggering. now we know why our policies protected teachers unions instead of kids. shut down the department of education. fund under funded school choice programs and unleash the public schools by abolishing these teachers unions. that's how we fix education in this country. >> todd: his name is vivek ramaswamy. we thank him for his time. with that "fox & friends" begins right now. ♪ ♪ ♪ i don't know how, i don't know when ♪ some day i'm going to see you again. >> brian: you are looking at the northeast, you are looking at a suburb of boston. do you want know exactly? glouster. a suburb of boston. a population of counting everybody yesterday 29814. in essex county, it's 45 degrees.
