[male narrator] at heifer international, we believe in the power of people. since 1944, we've equipped people with the tools and education they need to move themselves from poverty to power. all they need is a chance. learn more at heifer.org. rachel: we begin this hour, on fox & friends weekend with this. tomorrow, house oversight committee chairman james comer will finally get to review the fbi's file on an alleged $5 million scheme involving then -vice president biden.

will: speaking with fox news digital he revealed fbi director wray confirmed the existence of the fd-1023 form alleging then vice president biden engaged with a foreign national and this form generated by the fbi from a highly credible human informant with years of experience tracks closely what we are seeing in our investigation of the biden families influence pedaling schemes. pete: this as fox news digital own source confirms the person behind the hide en document is in fact highly credible, having been used by the fbi since the obama administration. a lot of possible developments coming which is why it's great we can bring in fox news sunday anchor and fox news chief legal correspondent shannon bream. >> good morning, always good to be with you. pete: likewise. there's been so much smoke around this from the laptop to books written about it. is this a moment that changes the game based on what we're

learning about this source and the fact that comer may get access himself and is seeking broader access? >> well kudos to our digital team who dug and got a lot more information. this person has been identified as a highly credible source. somebody who had been used for years was a pre-existing source for the fbi. they didn't just walk in day one , in june of 2020 when they filed this dock and they were new to the agency. they had participated, we're told, for several years with the fbi, different investigation s dating back into the obama years at least we know that during that administration, so there's a lot more to this. now, you know, senator grassley himself has admitted we don't know whether this is these allegations are legitimate or not. what he wants to do is whether the fbi knows whether they are legitimate or not because whether or not they investigat ed them is the whole point so tomorrow these document s supposed to come over to capitol hill. it'll be in a secure area. there will be a briefing apparently from the fbi and congressman comer will get a look at it, so that's where the investigation begins as far

as the house is concerned because they want to know not just about the content of this but whether the fbi took it seriously and engaged any investigation, any resources in it from there. rachel: shannon, why would the fbi not want to hand this over? as pete mentioned earlier it's not classified. if they had no problems if they didn't do anything wrong in terms of investigating it or not investigating it, based on the evidence they had from this informant, why not just be transparent and turn it over? >> yeah, my gut tells me it's this thing here in washington where everybody has their own little thiefdom, and they want to control that and they don't want anybody telling them what to do or pushing them around. i think federal agencies feel that way. congress will say we've got oversight, you've got to do it one way or the other but they had said there were some sourc ing issues protecting the human source, and other things that could potentially implicate national security they wanted to redact those things, even though as you said this is not a classified document so it's back and forth. you come here and look at it,

we'll redact it to finally we're going to subpoena you so you should bring it here and let us have the document so this seems a bit of a compromise in the fbi is going to bring it and let them look at it and give them a briefing but i think what chairman comer ultimately wants is to have the document and maybe to be able to share it more broadly. will: shannon, we know you're getting ready for fox news sunday what's coming up on the program? >> we have iowa governor kim reynolds with us, except for president trump, did he miss an opportunity? we'll talk about that. plus, senator joe manchin on that pipeline deal he got worked into the debt ceiling deal not everyone is happy about that and hey, by the way is he still thinking about a third party run for president and senator tom cotton, china a lot of as you have been covering this morning developments on that front. he's a foreign policy guy we'll talk about it with him. will: all right shannon, 2:00 p.m. here. >> thanks guys. pete: as we often talk about here there's a lot of power in words, language, and one of the

gatekeepers of the words we use and what's acceptable and stylistically is the associated press, the ap, and they have a style guide and if you went through high school or college your teacher will often say well refer to the ap style guide for the parameters of what you write about which becomes the way in which we talk and write and speak. well they have adopted all of the same left wing beliefs and now they are pushing even more. i mean, they have long since gotten rid of a lot of things we've covered that but they have gone even further. now the associated press has an update on pronouns, so here is the guidance the ap is giving to students, newsrooms whatever about how they should talk about this. avoid terms like biological sex, along with biological male and biological female, which opponents of transgender rights, it's all loaded language, sometimes use to refer to transgender women and transgender men respectively. so if you're trying to talk

about a transgender man who is actually a biological woman, you're not supposed to say biological woman, because that would undo the fact that they are now a transgender man if that makes sense. rachel: yes, they also, it doesn't make sense. pete: okay. rachel: which is why my question is, maybe it's time to get rid of the ap guide. pete: your own guide, make your own. rachel: yeah and schools shouldn't be using this because clearly, this is so confusing, and not based in science and reality. the associated press also updated the use of the term " gender affirming care" and they said transgender medical treatment for youth is increasingly under attack at many states and has been subject to restrictions or outright bans but it has been available in the united states for more than a decade and it is endorsed by major medical associations. again, genital mutilation, we should now just call it gender-

affirming care, just like they call abortion healthcare. it's just really troubling. i interviewed a student just in the last hour. his name is travis. boy, what a brave young man. he actually in a school assembly said boys are boys, and girls are girls, and there's no in between, and for expressing that reality and also his first amendment right to say whatever the heck he wants to say, he was banned from walking at graduation, so graduation happened. he was not allowed to participate. a bunch of woke teachers made sure he didn't. also he had a job lined up to start to work for the forest service, and they fired him before he even started for saying something that's true , but also something that he's constitutionally allowed to do. boy, the one thing i wish i'd asked, you talked about what you wish you'd ask vivek on your

interview, i didn't ask him, are you going to sue the pants off the school. we should have him back to talk about that but here is what he said. >> i was supposed to go fight wild land forest fires. i went into finish up my final paperwork. i was supposed to start sunday, and i was informed by my boss after i'd finished my paperwork that he was going to rescind his offer. in a protest, it wasn't violent at all. nobody did anything violent. we were just there to let me walk, basically that was our message. that's why everybody came together. i don't believe i would have been punished at all personally if i'd said black lives matter. it's reassuring to know that i'm not alone and realize what i did wasn't wrong. pete: of course. so he wanted to work for the national forest service by the way a federal bureaucracy

which is -- rachel: super woke. pete: maintains the same kind of absolute conformity, and demands it, the ap style, correct me if i'm wrong but maybe 20 years ago wasn't it about when you used the past tense or where you put a comma, or where it's acceptable to use an dash. that's the style guide. now it's a political enforcement guide. will: it's mind control. i don't think this is any small story. rachel: no it's not. this is a massive story. will: you control language. you control thought, and you know, i think there's a lot of people out there and i know i have friends who said these types of things like it doesn't hurt me. i'll use pronouns to be respectful. it doesn't hurt anyone. why don't you just do that, because it hurts the concept of objective reality and once you destroy objective reality then you can control anything. you can not check your mind at the door. you can't check reality at the door. under the banner of empathy and then think everything is okay

because once you divorce yourself from reality you are capable of descending, had long into insanity so what the ap is doing there, pete, is trying to erase the potential for any distinction between the transgender man and a man, right? so biological man, that makes it too obvious that there is a real difference between those two concepts, and the next step will be and there will always be a next step, the next step will be erase the term transgender. it will be that. it's just man, man. rachel: whatever you identify as will: you can't linguistically distinguish them and then ultimately you can't in your mind because you're afraid of whatevers going to happen to you , recognize the difference. in two objective realities even though team down you do. pete: it started with language. even the idea of gender vs. sex. it used to be biological sex for

the , i remember showing up at college and they are saying well gender is a social construct, it's a new idea. rachel: that's where it is. pete: get away from biological sex to gender now we use sex and gender interchangeable as if it's the same word which it isn't but that was a trick of changing the way we talk to change the way we think. rachel: you talked about mind control but there's also this social control. the way the teachers in this school treated travis, like and by the way, the students and parents backed him up, a lot of them, a big number of them, but the teachers are activists. they want to punish him. i mean, imagine this kid going through school and not being able to walk at his college graduation for saying something that was true and that he is constitutionally allowed to do. pete: and now he's not qualified to fight fires. rachel: and now he can't because he believes in this and he can't get a job. he's understanding at the tender

age of 17 that his whole professional life can be affect ed by whether or not he's willing to repeat the lies, and that's what communism is about. they are forcing, if they can get you to say the lie is true, they can get you to do anything. it's not just mind control. it's social control and this is the real threat in america right now. we're in a culture war whether you like it or not. will: speaking of schools -- pete: newly unearthed text reveal that randi weingarten, a political activist the president of the american federation of teachers pushed for changes in the language used in cdc recop ing guide for covid. will: let's go off the wall to see what the messages show and how the actions during the pandemic have impacted students. so these texts, pete, you highlighted them a little bit earlier, back to 2021 showing randi weingarten's relationship with the cdc. pete: the fairfax county parent 's association filed a

request from the cdc so we got these texts again and this is the day before guidance was released. randi weingarten text michelle w olenski, we heard the new york times leaked there might be changes in how we reopen schools, do you have time for a call and the response was, well, you know, will. in meetings, can we touch base? but the point is if you look at the bottom in the highlighted portion, here is the language the new york times sent. all schools can provide in- person instruction. she didn't want that, because can provide in-person instruction, if you can, you should, right? you're capable of doing it. if we want everyone in person. yeah, will, the next day, the language they came out was not can provide in-person. it was have the option to provide in-person, which creates all the wiggle room you need to say well here is another reason why we can't be in-person. will: what this illustrates is look, how many different people, again people accept things and then we live lives based upon the idea.

welcome on. trust the cdc. it's the cdc. well the cdc is being manipulated, run by, in relationship with the teachers union, and the teachers union does not have best medical guidance in mind. pete: no, and claims they want to be reopening schools, when they never did, which takes us to our next slide. this is just the latest revelation, sorry, this is related to the same thing. by the way let's double down on your point about how cozy it is. thank you. this is the cdc director, this gave me the biggest smile of the week. thank you, my friend. will: we will fuss a little on on the ventilation but i am so grateful. me too. pete: do you know what i mean about this? randi weingarten said no, we're not oklahoma with just the option to open. we'll fuss about how our schools are ventilated to extort more money or potentially stay closed even longer. will: this is going on behind the scenes and randi weingarten

claims she wanted schools to opal along. this is from april. >> we spent everyday from february on trying to get schools open. we knew that remote education was not a substitute for opening schools. they wanted to be in school teaching. they knew that remote was not right for our kids. we knew we had to be in school. we just wanted to be safe. will: yeah, so oscar award winning performance. so that's obviously in what you saw her there in those text messages with the cds and what you into intuitively what you've known all along where they stood in the way of schools reopening so she can try to rewrite the history but one thing she can't rewrite is the reading scores of kids based upon the choices by the cdc and the teachers union. this is what happened over that time period. look at this is fourth grade and eighth grade. reading, math. you have down there.

2009 this is your average reading scores. pete: this is, since randi weingarten has been at the aft, so if you've been clammering on behalf of kids and teachers for all these 13, 14 years, what do you have to show for it? will: that's right and this includes that time period down to 2022 down for eighth graders in reading. pete: down and down. eighth grade math scores dropping by nine points so she fought, we know this because she took on betsy devos and ron desantis saying they reopened too quickly. so we know she wanted to keep the schools closed. you know what happens when the schools are closed. you know the nonsense they're pushing into the kids classroom. things like getting rid of phonics and pushing the whole word method or crt, or dei, which they denied all of which has lead to our kids being in a worse spot. will: absolutely. pete: just like changing the language, will. change history. say no, i was never for closing schools. i've never wanted --

of course she was. rachel: rewriting history is -- pete: the theme of the day. rachel: by the way those scores that dropped, the original scores from back in 2009 were like below lithuania. we're already behind and not at the top of our game in terms of how our kids are scoring relative to other countries and then it dropped even more. pete: we're always just a few billion dollars away from educational eutopia according to the unions. will: a little more control. rachel: and the catholic and private schools, its remained open and nothing happened. pete: all right rachel: we'll turn now to your headlines. police are investigating the deaths of six different women in portland over the last six months to see if they are connected to a potential serial killer. each of the bodies were found about 100 miles apart in the woods and in rural areas. only one woman's cause of death was revealed.

officials say joanna speaks died of blunt force trauma to the head. an artificial intelligence expert says he doubts the federal government is prepared to regulate new technology because vice president kamala harris has been tapped as biden's a.i. czar. when fox news digital asked the founder of deep a.i. if he was confident in governments addressing issues caused by a.i. , he said well, they put kamala harris in charge, so, not really. pete: fair point. rachel: fair point. fans packed madison square garden last night in new york for the united states darts masters. and michael van gerr won. he defends his title for the second year in a row. >> display for michael, an 18th victory on the world series, a second here in the united states

rachel: van gerwin earned almost $25,000 after beating out north american champion jeff smith 8-0 this is his 18th world series dart title. and those are your headlines. will: i bet you're good at dart s? are you? pete: it's like a basketball stroke a little bit so "i feel pretty" good about it. am i good? no. it's a decent part. we can do this on the show. will: i've tried over time. there's a lot of, it's usually in the context where repetitive motion is more difficult. pete: [laughter] rachel: yeah. i think i know what you're talking about. will: yeah. you don't play at chuck e cheese pete: that's a fox & friends weekend competition darts. maybe we can get the champ here to teach us a little bit. rachel: that be fun. pete: it's a good one, right? will: let's do that. coming up the u.s. has been rocked by violence and protests in recent years. researchers now say narcissism is linked to left wing extremism we'll talk to a philosophy professor about what this means.

pete: but first, we're throwing it out to rick reichmuth at the annual 104 story tower climb to honor 9/11 heros. rick? rick: good morning, guys. the tunnel 2 towers climb. it's mostly done here which means it doesn't take that long, like we thought it would take us , but almost remember we've got one really great guest coming up you don't want to miss it stay with us. fox & friends will be right back ♪ in the name of the father and son, holy spirit. amen. lord jesus, come to us now. help us to surrender ourselves completely to you. help us to listen to your voice. even when we're distracted or tired, we pray this in the name of the father and of the son of the holy spirit. amen. thank you so much. i just want to encourage you that if you want to join me in more prayer, check out hallow it's the number one prayer app in the world.

rachel: the u.s. rocked by far left violence and fiery protests in recent years and a new study is claiming that progressive extremism is linked to highly- disturbing and toxic personality traits. will: here is what researchers found. "individuals with dark personalities such as high narcissistic and psychopathic traits are attracted to certain forms of political and social activism which they can use as a vehicle to satisfy their own ego , focus needs instead of actually aiming them at social justice and equality." pete: interesting our next guest argues liberalism has radically shifted the way we date, love, and marry and our country as well. patrick danine is professor of foley philosophy at the

university of notre dame and he joins us now. professor thanks for being here. i will note as well selfishly the professor was my thesis advisor as a senior at princeton i wrote a very average thesis. >> [laughter] pete: but not because i didn't have a great advisor. he's one of the good guys in academia. when you look at this and we'll get to your book in a moment, but when you look at the studies does it make sense to you? >> yeah it makes perfect sense. the word narcissism means extreme self-love and comes from an ancient story from greece which princeton classics department wants to get rid of, which is a story of a man who sees his own reflection in a pool and falls in love with himself and no longer can fall in love with anything outside of himself, and so you could say one of the underlying features of a progressive ideology is the inability to sort of love and appreciate the things outside of us. the things of the world. what we inherit. our tradition. our history, our nation. who we are.

the literature, right, that we inherit. even the fact that we are man and woman. that becomes objectionable so this narcissistic trait at its most extreme is going to manifest itself as violence, pulling down statues, trying to erase history, trying to erase the tradition, but it's also let's notice, when it's even when it's not violent and extreme, it's the motivating philosophy of our ruling class today. it touches on exactly the topics you were just talking about in the last segment. rachel: absolutely. it's so interesting it's very easy to identify some of them. i think when you're talking about that person, i was thinking of aoc. she is the perfect embodiment of that philosophy but let's talk about how it affects love and marriage and things that really matter in our life, right? >> right. well so if we look at a lot of the statistics today, one of the most striking features of our civilization today is that people aren't doing what people have always done which is marry ing, and having children and being committed to each

other over a long period of time there's this deep fear that commitment will limit my freedom , my freedom always to make myself into something new. when you get married for the long term, and you have children, you are making a commitment to something outside of yourself. it's the opposite of being a narcissist right? rachel: it's the opposite of self-love and self-care. will: i want to go back to this concept of nasa six for just a moment. it's so interesting in that the movement itself owns this concept in that it's always talking about self-love. of course narcissism is the extreme version of self-love i think the way they see it is it's finally coming out from underneath "the rock" of repression, that it's not narcissism it's the true self finally emerging after i don't know what they see a society over tradition in decades having repressed their true self. >> right. so part of what this true self is of course something that we,

ourselves, on our own, make. but of course that's not the definition of a genuinely true self. a true self is of course all of the contributions that goes into making who we are, starting with our parents and siblings and our friends, our communities, so it's a recognition that the self is always in some ways far too limited so narcissism is always going to be in a sense a kind of projection of an unreal view of what we are on to the world and i think this reflects a kind of, you could say, one of the aspects of progressivism is a projection of a world that we want it to be which requires us to eliminate everything that is. rachel: was carl marx a narcissist? >> you want to talk about somebody that didn't have a good marriage that's a classic definition. pete: you wrote a book a couple years ago called "why liberalism failed" so by the way why did liberalism fail? >> it failed because it succeed ed because it created the

kind of human beings that were no longer capable of being attached to each other. pete: this next book is called regime change toward a post- liberal future. >> so we have a ruling class today which talks a lot about social justice and its commitment to others, but uses those arguments to sort of shrow d its own power and its own self-interest kind of as a vail by which it asserts its power. one of the interesting things about that study is it talks about the way that these claims of social justice allow a kind of moral sort of appearance over domination, and so the more elite -- rachel: john kerry essentially. [laughter] >> well, look -- pete: i'm so morally superior to you that i can dominate you. >> it is. it's attached to domination moral superiority and purity into the desire to make the world into this image of purity leads to domination of those who are deemed less pure, so this young man, right? who said there are boys and

girls. what's happening to him? he's being dominated. rachel: bullying him. pete: now you guys know why i'm so smart. rachel: wow! pete: this guy right here. rachel: why didn't i have a professor like you? >> come to notre dame. pete: he gave will and i some hope about the university, there's a lot lost about it but when you got good guys like this out there fighting check it out "regime change." great stuff. will: another way to get smart? rachel: yes we talk a lot about family, love, marriage, the important stuff on the kitchen table so you can catch that this week. we are also interviewing, we interviewed steve friend to talk about how the fbi has become the new police force for the democrat party, and also , how disney is robbing girls of yet another childhood girlhood experience. pete: we'll check it out. from the kitchen table. all right, still ahead a new weight loss supplement gaining

benefits but it is not natures ozempic. it has been found to help to lower blood sugar. it can help to lower blood pressure, cholesterol and even been shown to have anti- inflammatory effects and heart health benefits. the issue is that on tiktok and other social media platforms, it's being put out there as a replacement for the active ingredient in ozempic, but studies have not shown that it has the same weight loss benefits, also some studies do show some harmful or adverse effects. pete: so the folks on tiktok saying they are using berberine to lose weight are probably doing other things as well. >> exactly. exactly. when you have large clinical trials like we've had with fda- approved weight loss medications, we make sure that the placebo group or the group not getting the medicine is having the same calorie intake, the same exercise, and so we

know that when they lose the weight it's really because of the fda approved drug, and for the berberine the studies have shown that your bmi may go down by a quarter or up to one, one loss of a bmi point or you may lose about five pounds. that's in the studies, yet people on the social media platforms are saying they've lost 18 points and its had independence tent effect, you're not saying the other things they are doing. the problem is because the ozempic are very expensive like over $1,000 a month plus you have to have those ones prescribed by a doctor so this berberine looks very attractive to people who don't have that kind of money to spend and don't feel like talking to the doctor so that's what makes it attractive but just because it's natural does not mean it's safe, so i want people to be careful and if you do take the supplement, do it under the supervision of your physician or healthcare provider. pete: doctor, real quick some of the side effects, upset stomach, constipation, things like that? >> yes, you can get some

stomach upset. also, in the studies which remind you were mostly in mice, in the studies some mice who took berberine got enlarged livers, enlarged kidneys and had lowered white blood cell counts and we need our white blood cell s to protect us from infection so we don't have enough human studies and also some people are mixing the berberine with other compounds that aren't berberine because since it's not fda approved, well they can put anything in it, and you could really really cause yourself some harm. pete: got it. can also just go out there and eat a little less, work out a little more. usually it works pretty well. dr. frita fisher great to hear from you this morning. up next we'll check back with rick reichmuth at the tunnel 2 towers 7th annual tower climb to honor all 9/11 heros, rick. ♪
