"fox news sunday." her guest will be republican national chairwoman ronna mcdaniel and maryland senator chris van hollen. thank you for watching "special report." i'm trace gallagher in los angeles. please join me for fox news at night. midnight on the east, 9:00 here on the west. 9:00 pacific. pete hegseth hosting for "jesse watters primetime" this evening. hey, pete. >> pete: hey, trace. it's friday almost friday night for you. you have one more to go. one more tonight. >> trace: one more. >> pete: appreciate it. ♪ ♪ >> pete: i'm pete hegseth and welcome to a special edition of "jesse watters primetime." you know, things used to be a little simpler back in the day. a lot simpler. you used to know what your kids were learning in school. even in sex ed. >> each of us is different from the day we're born. no two people are exactly alike. some of those differences are inherited from our parents.

>> see, i said so. >> then at pursuant certain glands begin to work and our bodies begin to change. >> what's pursuant? >> well, puberty? >> puberty is a lot of things. mainly a time of change. for you have, it means your bodies are changing from boys to men. >> pete: if sex was ever taught in the classroom it was mostly clear cut. still dad still had to sit you down and give you the good old birds and bees talk. that was the point parents had control over their kids. book of proverbs train up a child in the way he should go. even when he is old, he will not depart from it. it's our job. but today that biblical truth has been turned upside down. because parents are being replaced by an agenda. >> >> i told all my students that my pronouns are they/them and that my honor risk is mixed.

>> i teach in specifically trans affirming high school. we have gender support plans and gender wardrobe. >> with my second graders i had to make sure that my lesson was appropriate for that age group. i explained that it could be a boy that's a girl. a girl that's a boy or somebody that feels like neither. >> now i felt okay sharing this was because they know that i identify as neither. i go by mix. emergencies and dads on family. the radical left has intentionally destroyed the innocence of kids by hyper sexualizing them. confusing them on topics that are difficult enough for adults, let alone kids who are already otherwise confused and finding their way. instead of learning wisdom and logic and upon knicks and history. kids in our government school

system being sis gender otherwise known as straight is last decade. not cool anymore. and if you there's an end to it, look at what our kids are getting on their phone? >> hi, i'm cody i go by mrz pronouns comfortable prenouns that are not z. >> neo pronouns inspired by the word void. and they can be used by anyone regardless of gender identity. >> my name is horace and i'm a red tailed hawk. i'm in a human body but my identity is still a hawk. >> sometimes i'm literally trans and sometimes i'm literally not. like in my gender fluidity, like i just -- sometimes i'm trans and sometimes i'm not. i'm always nonbinary. >> between schools and phones our children are being brainwashed into believing rebellious or unique or interesting or different means changing your gender identity or

using made-up pronouns. they are being sucked into a culture of grievance. where self-identity and victimhood takes the place of basic biological truths. if you are a teenage high school girl who is uncomfortable with a biological boy in your locker room, you could get mauled. >> two students arguing at martin luther king high school, it's unclear who started the fight, but the tall student is said to be trans. there's pushing and shoving and eventually another student jumps in and fists fly. adding fuel to the fire, rumors of the trans student's behavior. >> he is also in the girl's locker room using girls' restrooms. he spit on my friends that are girls, females. and he shows his genitals in the locker room. >> pete: so you can either accept the gender theory group think of 15 minutes ago and follow the herd or you become the outlier. and we have already -- we are

already seeing what this kind of culture does to our kids. we are reaping what the left has sown. brand new tonight, a study by the cdc, this is the center for disease control, says that one in four high schoolers identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual. almost 25% of american kids between the ages of 14 and 18. let that soak in. 25% of high schoolers in america. it's a staggering number. that number has more than doubled since 2015 when it was just 11%. by the way, 2015 is when they even started asking the question. we saw the biggest spike come between 2020 and 2021, up 8% in those two years. now, that same study shows that only 2.4% of these kids have had sexual contact with only the same sex. so the number of gay and lesbian students in america today probably hasn't changed much.

but kids' views of their identity has changed in warp speed. kids are being socially conditioned to think that they are any number of fluid genders. you heard it being taught. and based on what the left is doing in our schools. this number will only go up from 25%. this is a social contagion. a civ civilizational crisis unleashed on our precious children. this is unevident tillable outcome of 100 year progressive takeover. a topic we have tackled for two seasons on the miseducation of america on fox nation. >> allege at this vistas slowly began to deconstruct and recruit more and more young people believing christian views held by their parents were archaic and not fit for the modern industrial age. ultimately, the most effective institution in destroying potential families is unsurprisingly responsible for planning the first steps towards

america's sex education. >> planned parenthood has been involved in day one pushing sexualized agenda into america's schools. >> pete: i hope you will watch it. simply put, over 100 years, this is what happens when we rip god out of our schools and put the god of the state and their science in charge of the school room our kids become the experiment, we saw it with covid where kids were locked out of their classrooms for two years. it wasn't based on actual science based on control. the will adults considered what it would do to our kids. like their mental health. same cdc report says 1/3 of u.s. teen girls seriously considered attempting suicide one third of american teen girls meanwhile the head of the teach's union randi weingarten testified she advised the cdc on school closures "suggested ideas" is

what she said it was. the parents lost control, and that's something parents may never get back. here's one parent on cnn, of all places, laying it out on wine weingarten. >> you will find most parents believe you were the tip of the spear of school closures. there are numerous statements you made over the summer of '20 scaring people to death about the possibility of opening schools. i hear no remorse whatsoever about the generational damage that's been done. >> i spent a lot of time with parents. said that they basically understood and supported that we needed to do both. i'm really sorry about your kids. >> you think parents. >> nobody wanted to keep the kids at home. >> pete: so, we can't say we are surprised when the national education association, the nea endorses joe biden for president. well, they only endorse democrats, always have. since 1976 when they bestowed their first endorsement on jimmy

carter. now, carter turned around and gifted the unions a new department of education in the decades that followed, the federalization of american education was complete. then, in 2020, biden completely handed the keys to the teachers union. and we saw what they did with it. now, he is yesterday to do it again. >> there is no such thing as someone else's child. no such thing as someone else's child. our nation's children are all our children. >> joe's child. we saw how that worked out by the way. so if you think 25% of high school kids identifying as gay, lesbian, and bisexual is a high number, well, that is just the beginning. their goal, which they open bely talk about is to push radical gender and sexual curriculum into younger and younger grades. they won't stop until they reach pre-k. joe biden and his union member wife jill biden, the doctor, are happy to accelerate that for them. with that plan in full motion,

what's next? how does all of this impact future relationships, marriages? the family? our country? the current state of family breakdown in america is already at crisis levels. and now, we're about to find out how much worse it can get. to paraphrase a gospel truth from the book of matthew: whoa to anyone who causes one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble. those are words to ponder. here to react tonight victor davis hanson. is he a hoover institution senior fellow. victor, you're -- this new cdc study with these new numbers, are you surprised and what does it say? 40 to 50 out of 100,000 suffered from some type of gender disfor

i can't. 15 years later that rubric gone up to 200 or 300 which is still .04 to 4%. but -- .4%. suddenly 5,000 out of 100,000 and went up to 5%. and then people identifying quay. so there has to be an explanation, pete. was it because it was considered as a new civil rights cause of the post modern era or was it peer pressure sort of like hoolihan hoop or pet rock or something a fad among teens? or was it indoctrination as you suggested in the school? but, i don't think it's scientifically born out. if you had pretty exacting studies when it was not a political issue, and you showed that it was a very small number, 40 or 50 people out of 100,000 suddenly it blossoms into the great civil rights question of our era with all 5,000 out of 100,000. i used to teach the poet

antiquitiy they talked about people biologically of a different sex than the one they identified. but it was very rare and often believe it or not associated with social trends of affluence and leisure. a symptomatology of a very affluent and leisured society that had not been true when it was poor and hard-working russian athletes two women accused ofenning of the opposite sex and feigning that they were women so they could win shot putt putt or distance. christina gorgeous sen in the 60's had gender reassignment in the 60's. this is not new. what is new is these astounding numbers and seem to be constructed for political reasons. and they have we have destroyed women's sports.

when biological males are breaking records of women who spent their entire lifetime trying to find parody with men. and then in addition we have problems with prisons and as you said locker rooms. so, just because a person says that i think i'm of the opposite sex doesn't mean that's necessarily true. in an age of fad and. so we have to have a rational discussion whether you saw what happened at san francisco state or stanford law school or in australia or the would be shooter of one of the supreme court justices that turned himself in, turned up at the justice's home, then you start to see there is no discussion because we have some things that we don't want to talk about that are associated with this radical new cause. and it's very intolerant and, yet, what i just said is considered intolerant. so, if you can't discuss something, and explain why this phenomenon is taking off, then what do you do? >> pete: we don't have much time. i think what makes it so different here, victor, is the

focus on the youth. this is -- it's not to say stuff like this has not been with us. it has since the beginning of time. but to focus it on youth means there has to be intentionality there, real quick, we have got to go. >> you are absolutely right. because statistics are static across the oldered age levels. it's not a phenomenon people over 40 or 50 or 60 they don't transgender at all than the way they did 50 years ago. that raises the question of indoctrination or the fad. we knew the prize would be the kids. victor davis hanson, thank you. >> thank you. >> pete: coming up, will nashville police finally release the trans shooter's manifesto. update on the investigation coming up next. plus, samuel alito, the justice, knows who leaked the supreme court's abortion decision:

pete last night the nashville police said they would full-time rye lee lease the manifesto of the trans shooter who murdered three children and three adults in a christian school. the big question we all want to know is why now? in a statement the police department told fox news, quote, the investigation has progressed where the covenant shooter's writings are now being reviewed for public release. so they, quote: reached a point where we can see it. now, we all know it should have been released shortly after the tragedy happened. they still haven't told us when they are going to make it public. the manifesto was found in the car but police also seized a suicide note, journals, and a hand drawn map of the school

from the trans shooter. why don't they want us to see those? well, we know the story doesn't fit the left's narrative, the shooter is trans. so how heavily is this manifesto going to be redacted and what will would he be allowed to see? terry turchie former assistant director of the counter-terrorism division of the fbi. terry, let me pose that question to you. will it be redacted? what will we see? >> well, pete, it is very important that the national p.d., even if it's a month late, release that manifesto. i have a terrible feeling it will be redacted somewhat. it may have a lot of omissions. the more they redact it, the more they omit and any other documents they found that they have failed to release will really increase the fact that we just can't trust law enforcement even. and this ties into what you have been talking about insofar as the political agenda. unfortunately, we have to admit for ourselves whether we are

former or current that america has never been in this kind of situation before where law enforcement has become political and many of us could argue law enforcement has become weaponized. and, if this shooter doesn't match the politically correct definition of the myth that people are trying and the people in power, i mean, are trying to let american people know is the profile of a crazed shooter then we're in trouble. we're not going to learn anything. because, quite frankly, what they want americans to believe right now is not what is in their own words. not what is in the words of these people who commit these terrible crimes. they want people to think that the gun crazed right wing fundamentalist christian white supremacist is the person responsible for shootings in america like this. the reason they want them to think that is they want to galvanize the support to essentially go after firearms. they want to attack the bill of

rights. and this is just one of the tools that they will use. this is a tool used by communism throughout the ages. and that's what we're seeing in front of us now in wheel time. if we don't get these moofts and we know we have dealt with, for example, the unabomber manifesto. if we don't get the manifestos in their own words we can't go back to americans and see this myth is just simply untrue. this is what these people were stay saying. >> pete: what's the standard practice? how soon should they have released something like this to establish trust? >> well, there are no rules, pete. but, in this instance, there wasn't going to be any trial. they had one mission, probably. and that's to make sure they protect anybody else who might be putting some sort of danger if it's released. and that could be for a lot of reasons as far as what's in it. but, when we start getting into i the give you an example information that the shooter, for example, found very personal and put into a diary or on

autobiography or manifesto, that information shouldn't be protected. it shut should be out there. it will be very interesting to see if it is. because it will not tell and convey the message that we have been -- we have been led to believe. and anybody in law enforcement knows that. mental illness is a major component or either diagnosed or undiagnosed of mass shooters and serial lone bombers. we know that because the fbi for 20 years now has had a study on that point. so we need this information. and americans will see that they have been misled. they have been disinformed and the whole purpose of that was to publish the agenda of going after people's firearms. >> pete: you know, you are exactly right about that last point for sure. whether they redact just private information about individuals who listed vis-a-vis the narrative or the ideology the shooter would tell us everything. terry, thank you so much for your time. you know what you are talking about. >> thank you. >> pete: you got it. now to a fox news alert.

as we might finally have an answer to who leaked the supreme court's abortion decision. justice samuel alito dropped this bombshell in an interview with the "wall street journal" earlier today. he said this, quote: i personally have a pretty good idea who is responsible. but that's different from the level of proof that is needed to name somebody. and it's not just the leaker's identification alito seems to have cracked. the justice is convinced the attempt was attempt to bully the conservative justices. he said this. it was a part of an effort to prevent the dobbs draft from becoming the decision of the court. and that's how it was used for those six weeks by the people on the outside. as part of the campaign to try to intimidate the court. as you know, the leak led to a flood of protests outside of the justices' homes putting them and their families in harms' way. and the supreme court has been dragging its feet on the investigation with the court unable to i.d. the leaker from

all the way back in january. it's almost may. but, it looks like the justices might know more than we do and hopefully we find out soon. all right, up next, joe biden is treating the presidency like a part-time job. and now even liberals want him to face a primary challenger. >> as whack that the dnc won't do no primaries next year do a [bleep] primary debate. put joe biden up on that stage with bobby kennedy who is challenging him. ♪psor real people with psoriasis look and feel better with cosentyx. don't use if you're allergic to cosentyx. before starting get checked for tuberculosis. an increased risk of infection, some serious and a lowered ability to fight them may occur. tell your doctor about an infection or symptoms or if you had a vaccine or plan to. tell your doctor if your crohn's disease symptoms develop or worsen. serious allergic reaction may occur. best move i've ever made.

if his own team is worried about his health we should too. nikki haley wants to face off with joe in 2024. she said kamala is the one she would really be running against. >> we can all be very clear and say with a mask that if you vote for joe biden you really are counting on a president harris because the idea that he would make it until 86 years old is not is it not something that i think is likely. >> pete: i think we will be hearing more of that joe doesn't look healthy. and his poll numbers are cratering. nowadays it seems the only support biden can still muster is from the democrat establishment. and they are prepared to protect their golden goose at all costs here is hillary clinton endorsing biden and harris at the feminist state of the union, yes, last night. >> they are going to build on their success and go further. so i'm for them on the merits. i'm also for them because of the alternatives. i mean, oh my gosh.

i don't know, literally how any woman, any person of color can't be on fire to reelect, you know, biden and harris because of what they have done but, also, because of what could happen if we don't. >> pete: man, looks like a party. the establishment will do whatever it takes to keep biden in the white house. you know that he is very useful to them. you see, his boring presidency is actually an opportunity. while we focus on joe's naps, democrats solidify even more control across the sprawling federal bureaucracy. the deep state gets deeper every day. they work quietly while joe does other things. they are already trying to kneecap joe's other opponents robert f. kennedy jr. he is surging in the polls. he is at 1%. the mainstream media has been ignoring him since the day he

announced. now that he is a threat, they are going for his throat. >> several of your relatives have not just said that they disagree with you but they have called you dangerous. i'm just curious if you are not able to get your own sisters to vote for you for president, how would you make that appeal to american voters? [laughter] >> what is your family like? do they agree with everything you say and do? >> they would probably vote for me if i ran for president. >> yeah, well i have siblings who would vote for me as well. >> because he is are not the establishment's chosen democrat he is being treated like a republican. >> we should note that during our conversation kennedy made false claims about the covid-19 vaccines, data shows that the covid-19 vaccines prevented millions of hospitalizations and deaths from the disease. we have used our editorial judgment in not including extended portions of that exchange in our interview. >> pete: we will show you what we want to show you. the democrats will do whatever it takes to shut this guy up. just like they did to bernie sanders twice. r.f.k. jr. is taking a huge bite

out of biden's base. and that's why joe doesn't want to get on the debate stage with him or anybody else even liberals know that's a cowardly move. >> liberals are goofy. you really judge trump and people like trump when you have this mother [bleep] running again. >> that's why it's whack that dnc won't do no primaries do a [bleep] primary debate. put joe biden up on that stage with bobby kennedy who is challenging him and marianne williamson. >> pete: rachel campos-duffy is my co-host of "fox & friends weekend" and our friend and she joins us now. rachel, great to see you. any chance bind takes to a debate stage inside a primary context or are they going to keep no matter where rnk goes they are not touching it? >> rachel: before we get to the debate, you talked about biden's schedule, the 30-hour workweek if that? i kept thinking it's so gen z.

he is quiet quitting us. or maybe it's more personal he is ghosting us. talk about his schedule is so bad. saw with that clip with abc where they were censoring jfk. government and media elites don't want us to know anything. they want to infantilize us. they think we are too fragile to handle, you know, somebody talking to us about a different opinion about vaccines. and that's the same thing that's happening at the debate. the elites don't want the american people to see a debate between r.f.k. jr. and joe biden because it might expose things that we all can already see about joe biden we ought to have a debate on the republican side. when both the strongest candidates come forward our country is better. why are they trying to hide this from from us.

>> pete: you are so right, rachel. they might not do a democrat debate for fear of misinformation. they can't put someone on the stage that might say something that up ends their orthodoxy. you are exactly right. on that workweek, rachel, do you think there would ever being an admission. someone is finally leaking a little bit like this guy never works. we all know it, we see it plainly with our eyes that he is a part-time president. is it -- are they just -- you kind of heard what i said. are they just satisfied for who he is then they can go to work burrowing in all the other things they want to publish as far-left democrats. >> rachel: yeah. there is clearly a cabal of people it's probably obama's third term who are running this administration. and they don't want us to see it. every day gets worse. they had children go back to work -- go with your parents to workweek or day or whatever that was, and the kid asked him about where is the last country you went to and he couldn't remember and then i thought it was a kid who told him it was ireland but

i think it was actually you pointed out it was his. >> pete: first it was an adult. >> rachel: dad or something. getting assists from his staff. from kids. it's getting so obvious. and that's why you see nikki haley saying what she said which is listen, let's be honest. if joe biden runs, i'm going to actually be running against kamala harris because they are not -- he is not going to make it through this. can i just say one last thing? >> pete: of course. >> rachel: it has serious national security implications. his mental blunders, as you saw with the ukraine war, when he was asked about a possible russian incursion he said well, if it's a small incursion, and a lot of people think that's what gave, you know, the green light to the russians to invade. so, very serious topic. >> pete: you are right. we laugh because we don't have an alternative because it's deadly serious and you are exactly right. rachel, i will see you in 10 hours and 22 minutes, something like that. thank you so much. >> rachel: all right. great show, pete. >> pete: thank you, rachel.

>> pete: as you know the biden administration is going full force with their green agenda. and seems like it's already doing more harm than good. offshore wind mills are killing whales and dolphins and threatening fishermen's jobs. not just the ocean getting messy. a few months ago brought you a story of the lava ridge project. build a series of wind farms in idaho it. would consist of 400 windmills spanning over 84,000 acres of public land. and rightfully so, the locals are pissed. just the construction of these wind mills alone could destroy their water source. they need to use explosives to clear the site which experts lead to seismic activity causing earthquake. on top of that the chemicals could leak into drinking water. >> a high explosive turns everything into dust.

it obliterates it. it's too great of a risk to take when we don't have 100 percent assurance that it will not damage the aquifer and this whole area relies on that for our water. >> pete: it's not only that these 700-foot windmills are ugly and would ruin rancher's livelihoods, also kill animals and insects that make their ecosystem run. worst part these windmills aren't even going to help idaho. the power is going to be transferred to california. biden doesn't care, his bureau of land management plowing straight ahead. only thing that matters to him is reaching his green energy goal. that goal seems to have only negative environmental impact so far. my next guest has been pushing back on the biden team's plan with the group stop lava ridge. and we brought you his story just a few months ago. it appears that his appearance rallied support for his cause. the state's governor, lieutenant governor, and both u.s. senators have sent a letter to the bureau

of land management demanding the project stop. saying this: we urge the blm to reassess and refocus the process on working with the local communities to address the concern. if all these concerns are not addressed, it's unlikely we will be able to support this project moving forward and without community support, the blm risks jeopardy di dieing trust in government which in turn makes future projects more challenging to publish. here with an update on the lava ridge project is idaho farmer dean diamond. great to great to see you. love the back drop there. you have politicians behind you right now. >> thanks, pete. >> pete: beautiful as it should be untainted by windmills in the background. you have politicians that have your back. what's the status of the project right now? >> i'm sorry, my internet cut out. what did you say? >> pete: what's the status of your project right now, dean? >> right now, they just finished

the dis and they are working on the eis. we are very concerned blm just seems to be charging forward looking for ways that they can just make this project happen no matter what we say or what we do. they are not really worried about our concerns. they just seem to be more intent on getting these darn things put in here. >> pete: dean, how many locals support. this how many people that you know that you work with that you farm with support having these windmills in? >> i do not know anybody in the whole magic valley. i have been lived in the valley my pert near life and i have never seen us come together so strong whether you are a democrat or a republican. whatever, even sun valley up there, they have come down and said this is just not a good idea. it's the wrong place, it's the wrong time. it's going to destroy what we consider and treasure and our way of life and it's just not a good idea. >> pete: if every person you don't know don't want it. the citizens don't want it. the taxpayers don't want it.

and the governor and lieutenant governor and senators say they don't want it. the federal government can still take the land build it? >> that's going to be the good question. our state legislature unanimously passed a resolution voting against lava ridge. like you say, the governor, the lieutenant governor, the indian tribes, everybody has come out against this but, yet, they are still pushing forward because they want to have green energy. in fact, it was so crazy that the ls power the other day made the comment the green energy really is good and it would pay for itself if they would just increase the price of power. well, how crazy is that? if we increase the price of farm products i could make more money, too. >> pete: none of it makes any sense. >> it doesn't seem to matter what repeat pete no, none of it makes any sense because it's not even improving the environment either which apparently is the whole point. none of it benefits you because it all goes to california.

>> well, in sports some people say it's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game. some people say. at the end of the day being a better person, it is true, is more important than being a better athlete. in the last couple of years, though, it seems like parents, coaches, even kids have forgotten that point. refs are being attacked, parents are punching each other, and the ball field looks like a boxing ring sometimes. we need to take a step back and remember why we wanted our kids to play sports to begin with. we wanted them to learn life lessons. one nba superstar reminded us of that. the milwaukee bucks fell to the miami heat in the nba playoffs. it was an instant classic, and ended with an insane jimmy buckets shot at the buzzer, but it was after the whistle blew when the show start. milwaukee superstar giannis was talking to reporters after the upset loss.

the number one seed going down in the first round is a big deal. giannis could have used this as an opportunity to trash the refs, make excuses for his team. instead he took to the microphone and gave a lesson on perseverance. >> >> do do you view this season a failure? >> every year you work toward a goal. there's always steps to it. you know, michael jordan take 15 years, won six championships. the other nine years was a failure? that's what you're telling me? there's no failure in sports. you know, there's good days, bad days. some days you successful. some days you're not. some case it's your turn. some days it's not your turn. that's what sport about. you don't always win. >> casey, he did fail, right? >> right, correct. >> the superstar, the number one

seed, i love the lesson for kids. >> yes. >> but his job is to win. you're out in the first round, 4-1. >> that's embarrassing. 4-1, miami heat, you're top seed in the east, you're taking home $40 million-plus this year, and it only goes up from here for the next three years. i understand the accountability, understand that milwaukee people are, like, let's go, we don't care about the candy -- you know, the thing at the end of the day that you take home. it's the lesson that you learned. that's not paying the bills. i will say, as a mother, i do love this outlook. as a human being, when the stakes maybe aren't that high, day to day, going to school maybe -- >> sure. stakes aren't really high. it's just basketball. >> it's so funny, because it's like, oh, wait, what happened in 2021. oh, he helped win the first title in four decades. you know what i mean? i feel it's goldfish braid in terms of production and

trophies. he needs to be accountable, but i love the lesson. >> have you been to the promised land, beaten so embarrassingly, your fans and others will have an expectation, this is on me. of course this is a failure. not like troops on the battlefield. it's not like important things in life. but, like, don't tell me -- >> would you have been happier if he came right out of the gates and said to the reporter, you asked me that question last year, whatever, yes, i failed. i don't want anybody to give me any excuses. yes, we failed. we didn't come through. but insert lesson. would you have been happy with that? >> much more happy, yes. let's play a clip of your new series on fox nation. watch. >> she used sexual favors and scares to loop people in. >> they had dubbed her the hipster. >> she made money, and she was good at it. >> she's one of the top 10 scams in the world today. >> these are scammer

entrepreneurs. >> yes. they fake it till they make it, but they don't actually make it and they get caught. >> fascinating. >> fake it till you make it until what point? >> did they all know they'd eventually be caught? >> i don't think so. one pretended to be a saudi prince. he did it multiple times. he tried to buy the fontaine bleu. there was elizabeth holmes. she got handed 11 years. we'll see if she serves it. very, very interesting. the grifter, like anna, making up things to pull money from your friends. >> you're with your buddies at the bar, and you say, i'm going to be the backup drummer to a band. >> right, right. this is past that point. no return. >> thanks all we have for

tonight. i'm done for the week. thankfully. jesse watters will be back here in his safe and capable hands on monday night. hope you have a great evening. please remember, i'm not watters. this is not my world. he'll be back. >> all right. good evening, everyone. hope you're having a great friday. this is "fox news tonight." i'm brian kilmeade. we begin. for the majority of our country's history, political parties existed for the simple purpose to make our lives better. political parties may have had different ideas to achieve that goal, but in the end the goals were the same. but if you've noticed over the last few years, that's no longer true, especially when you talk about the democratic party. the point of the democratic party's agenda today is no longer to improve the lives of the voters as far as i can tell. it is to kee
