firth, and his wife kara, for introducing margaret mary on may 25th. i almost botched her name, that is unfair. we wish you health, happiness, plenty of sleep. she's gorgeous. i can't wait to meet her. greg gutfeld, he takes it from here. >> i hurt my hand. happy monday, everybody. you know, happy pride month. yeah, thank you. although, it already seems like a year. maybe it's because all we talk about for the other 11 months is

pride month. i'm seeing rainbows everywhere, but the sky. let's talk about war. would you rather we do trans? all right. that is later in the show. war is a great topic. it's so great no one wants to talk about it. it is like bringing up 9/11 at a baby shower. yeah, that landed. that's proof. we're sending billions of dollars of weapons to ukraine, you wouldn't know it judging by the press. someone winds up with that issue prosecute. what if russia bombs a shipment? we can talk about that after world war iii. who is winning or loses and none of it makes sense. do we care? we love to talk about war, war on of po erty, war on drugs, not real world.

it is half a world away, those people talk funny and "the view" never talks about it. i don't get to make fat jokes. 401(k), don't check until you cash it out. it is worth pointing out amidst silence, there are two men speaking up, saying the war has to end. the moment you say that, somebody will call you a putin puppet, to which you should respond, you are a puppet of a puppet and you both have your hands up each other's asses. a year ago, i said unless you mitigate the war, it becomes background noise while waiting at gate c-7. someone gets it. here is r.f.k. >> my son connor joined the foreign legion and fought in

ukraine and during the offensive we were told that the objective was humanitarian. in recent times, president biden said that one of our objectives is regime change. of putin, secretary of defense, lloyd austin validated president biden's statement by saying our objective in the ukraine is to exhaust and degrade the russian army. that is aththet cal to a humanitarian measure. >> i had no idea his kid went to fight as part of the foreign legion. i thought that existed in carrey grant movies. otherwise, a kennedy fighting anywhere else other than a bar, doesn't sound right.

fighting in ukraine, you might run into randi weingarten. she is there. he has more than skin in the game, his own flesh and blood, although he's bias because he doesn't want his son to die needlessly. is he a putin puppet, too? do you have the guts to say that to him? do you think morning joe does? what are the dems going to do about r.f.k. jr., create another russian hoax to falsely smear his principled stance? these hoaxes are like feds at a trump rally, they start to look alike thachl is a democrat running for president. here is a republican. >> what i think we need to do, end the war that makes concession to russia, freeze current line of control in korean -- >> ukraine wouldn't want to do. >> ukraine wouldn't want to do and not allow ukraine to enter

nato, in your honor are, russia has to leave treaty with china, that better advances american interest and further deters china going after taiwan, higher priority for united states. >> greg: he wouldn't spend on the war with ukraine, maybe he is right, all paul, george and ringo did attacking john was push him to yoko. what does it mean when two oppositional candidates agree? maybe it is time for the rest of us to listen to this guy. >> if i'm president, i will have that war settled in one day, 24 hours. i'll meet with putin and zelenskyy. i want europe to put up more money. we are spending $1upon 70 million and they are right there. i'm talking about all the lives, number of people being killed is

far greater than you are hearing. >> greg: exactly thachl is nothing new, trump hates war, it is a waste of young life and he thinks america should keep its f-16s, which is crazy, right? cnn claims trump is politicizing the war. well, duh,morones, he's running for president. it is politics. and he's always been like this, except thinner and less orange. he knows the loss of blood and treasure makes no sense if there is another way and i think there was. the people in the know saw the war coming and still it happened. why is that? you can't speculate or you will be a putin puppet. two things can be true. war is waste, but a war maybe had to be fought. when a war starts and it gets --

analysis from a hot stud again. we all pay for this. we don't see the bill, it keeps going. it is like sponsoring a stafring child overseas, the ones you saw decades ago. we are sponsoring a war you never have to see, if you picket that child and sponsor and say he's looking more and more grim, you have to ask, what are they doing with the money? when a country invades another country, act against the aggressor, even if the outcome is awful or invasions will continue. it is not our country, it is ukraine's and you can't tell them not to fight and bodies are piling up like a cuomo-run nursing home. joke. and now we may be prolonging the agony just like people who vote for gavin newsom. so now it feels les like a war

and more like a demolition of an old apartment building to make way for a casino with the people still in it. is that what it election should be about? for us, it is about four more years of mindless feeble robot programmed by the left with no desire to connect financial support to dead ukrainians. 10 years ago, joe biden could find ukraine on a map, now he can't find his own front door. as long as he stays, the war goes on as he waits for instruction from his handlers. i'd be happy to end this war, if a democrat does it first, awesome, maybe that shows common sense can cross all lines, even politics. if you want to fight about it, join the foreign legion. >> welcome tonight's guest.

she'll have your net so big, lau lauren. he's my third favorite host after the guy from applebee's, comedian jeff dodd. the last person to call her four eyes still has to wear orthopedic shirts, host of kennedy saves the world podcast, kennedy. finally, people at the gym ask her how much she can french press. fox news contributor kattipp. kennedy, we don't really talk about this war, do we? >> not enough. >> greg: why is that? is it because it is depressing and easier to look away from it? >> no, people on both sides are really for it. i look at this and listen to

what r.f.k. jr. is saying. where are the hippies? they used to be the ones who cornered real estate on the anti-war market and there were a lot of republicans who were like, well, i have family members and friends and we know people who work at this network who have fought in endless wars and they have seen and saw the cost of that. ukraine is a place we could be bank rolling this for the n20 years. i don't agree ukraine should give war back to russia, i worry in 20 years, we'll be broke. >> have you been to ukraine? >> no, sir. >> we're going tonight, little surprise. field trip. it is like nothing left to claim victory because they're destroying this place. as a comedian, you probably do not talk about this. do you have specific --

>> people ask me, what do you think about russia and ukraine. if i'm honest, i didn't even know those were different places. actually, they weren't. >> a while ago, yes. that one guy was going, this war, we need to get it over with and go to other war. it felt pro-war, i like star wars, cup cake wars, war things as long as it is not actual humans dying. it felt kind of gross. that guy is like 30 years old? >> vivek ramaswamy? >> 37. >> he's a regular on the show, he was just on. smart, engaging young man, unlike you, jeff. >> i think i'd have a better shot at running. i like that guy, he says -- >> lauren, you look like one of the most successful dental hygienists on the planet. >> it's all the coffee i drink.

>> talking about the white medical jacket, looks like a medical jacket. probably shouldn't have pointed that out. >> you don't like it. >> greg: you are a business genius, how long can it go on before we feel it? are we already feeling it? >> i think so, 75 billion plus and counting. now we are getting ready for the counter offensive and we just heard from president zelenskyy, he says, we are ready, lessen our hopes. be patient, it will take more than you think. i am behind ukraine, i want them to win, is the cost worth the victory? he's prepping us, we'll be in this longer than thought. what does victory look like? no one has defined that yet. >> greg: both sides are willing to throw bodies at it and russia

has more bodies. >> greg: kat, you told me you like a good war. >> i knew you were going to go there. like kennedy said, both sides agree this is good and you are not allowed to have another opinion, even when it came out the government was lying to us about this one, too. anger was, hey, we are not supposed to know that or respect yourself a little. there has been no major consequences for us for being involved in this, but we shouldn't assume that means there never will be. the more we are involved, that rises the odds of that. the fact we are talking about it is good, everybody accepted it and it will probably go on forever and ever like we've seen with wars in the past. >> greg: we'll do one monologue

every six months and move on. >> more than anywhere else. >> a year and four months. >> greg: people didn't think you could handle this war topic. naming war dates like it is a baby. >> july 24th, 2022. >> greg: i remember, it was a terrible week, we were in texas and they cancelled all our shows. i have a theory, if trump was super gung-ho, about the war, all the people wouldn't be, because he was. if r.f.k. gets on this, they will pull a russia collusion thing, they want his views to be compromised. >> what they have to hope, trump comes out full for the war. that is what anti-war people have to hope, that is the way

the media and the establishment will then be against the war. >> greg: you got it. >> it is fresh to see a kennedy in politics, very fresh. >> greg: finally, just don't let them drive. i just praised him. up next, tim scott's trip to hadees, he chats with the ladies. if you would like tickets to see gutfeld, go to gutfeld and click on the link toin jo the studio audience.

earth's dumbest blobs. tim scott may have the edge against "the view" in smarts, but can he survive whoopi's parts? that was good. time once again for -- >> our view on "the view." ugh. >> greg: terrible. republican presidential candidate tim scott dropped by the furry five earlier today. i thought the u.s. had a distinct policy against torture. he called them out over crap joy behar said about him that he doesn't get systemic racism like saying brian steltzer doesn't get ben and jerry's. joy behar has been black on halloween. yeah. but joy wasn't there on the show, mondays of her days off when she feeds in the pasture.

but that is convenient, like my aunt dies every time brian kilmeade wants to hang out. maybe joy needs a full day to read her hate mail, that is just from the rest of the cast. sunny hostin and self-righteousness. >> i'm the exception, you are the exception, whoopi goldberg is an exception. >> i am on the show because comments that were said is to be the exception and not the rule, that is dangerous, offensive, disgusting message to send to young people today. if my life is the exception, i can't -- >> it is. >> 40% homelessness -- >> 50% of folks -- >> you asked a question, i watch you on the show, you like people to be respectful, i will do the same thing. >> that is true. >> greg: mmm.

more time to talk. i thought will smith wouldn't let a black man finish. if her iq was half as high as her smugness, she would be einstein. it got weird after whoopi goldberg asked a question and sunny chimed in. >> i think my side is doing fabulous job of making progress, how do we measure progress -- >> how is that? >> let me give you examples. >> that was me talking to you. i would love that. >> i come next to her? >> come on over here, let's have a conversation. >> come on, ladies. only african american female chief of staff was mine. >> most exercise whoopi has had in years and sunny looked more frightened than president biden when he sees a flight of stairs. an idea, try with music. >> shall i come next to her? >> come on over here, let's have

a conversation. >> come on, ladies. ♪ >> greg: so much better. all right, we'll stop there. kat, did you watch the whole thing or just the parts i sent you? >> i watched just the parts you sent. you think i would watch a whole episode of "the view." >> greg: no woman can do that unless you are stupid. how do they call themselves progressive when they say nothing has progressed? then it is on them. >> i just wish i would have washed if i could, would have been joy behar watching that and being like, i totally made the right call. it was not an accident they had him there on her day off when she was presented herself as expert on systemic race itch as

a white lady. >> greg: one halloween she went as diane ross. >> he came off likeable, they booed him, it was hard to watch or think he is a jerk. i think being in an environment like that could make somebody irritated, he pulled it off. >> greg: what did you make of it, doctor? >> i wanted to hear one thing that didn't happen. people throw around systemic racism like a buzz word and they asked him to define it. i would have liked him to use that as opportunity to get votes. we keep telling you based on the color of your skin, you cannot achieve, to turn that around, if you don't like you haven't achieved, vote republican and

don't look at me as anomaly, you can have what i have, whoopi has and sunny has. isn't he sick of being the token, it is annoying. >> greg: underlying thing. we are the exception. why are you? they are saying they are different -- >> condescending. >> greg: it is. as a white man, you know this too well. >> it is, we've been through enough the last three years. i don't know a lot about tim scott, the fact he got booed at "the view" is all i need to hear, he's got my vote. in fact, i don't take a politician seriously unless they have been booed by '90s comedian whoopi goldberg. >> greg: and she is the most sensible one. we've talked about joy before on

this show. >> certainly, greg. >> i will not shy away from this. can we talk about anything else? i'm kidding. >> greg: thank you to "the view" for providing us with, it was a slow weekend for news. i had to do war. so "the view" gave us so much, on fox all the time. like the fox news went to "the view" buffet and started scooping out, going back for more. [laughter] >> i do hope they have all the republican presidential candidates on, nikki haley, i hope they tell her she doesn't know what it is like to be a woman or children of immigrants, donald trump, blow out commercials for that. >> instead of vivek ramaswamy. you don't know what it is like to be 40. [laughter] >> this was such nonsense and we were talking before the show about that scary scene where

sunny is cowering and whoopi's strong and loving part-covered arms this vile man is going to leap out of his chair because he can't control himself. he has so much rage, republican rage he's going to lean into them and strangle the life out of them. that is how bad the studio would smell after that. >> greg: terrible, joy has to answer to not wanting to be on stage with a black man, you know. >> that is the systemic racism right there. >> greg: that is the systemic racism totally. they can't admit there is progress, they can't tell black democrats things are getting better. if you tell them things are getting betters, they won't still buy into the racism stuff. >> didn't whoopi goldberg defend ted danson for doing black face for a decade? >> greg: yeah, they were dating

for a while, but i think she thought he was black. up next, we have beef with the new cdc chief.

protecting your family is the best plan you can make. >> greg: her covid policies took their toll and now she runs disease control. it's time for, oh, man, you're going to flip when you see this clip. it's time for greg's greatest video of the week. >> greg: greatest video of the week and it's monday, slow news week. she pulled facts out of her ass, now made head of the class. president biden's pick to run the job. like me, except not as good-looking. in fact, she got the job despite being wrong a bunch of times in

a row, in political circles, it is called being a pete buttigieg. it is pride month. mandy cohen, her on the left, the incoming chief of the cdc, she is no mindy cohen. served as north carolina health secretary, position critics say she used to shut down everything without providing scientific evidence it would do a dam thing to stop the virus or the fauci method. she is speaking about the arbitrary way she and her colleagues came up with policy and it will make your blood boil. >> i would call the person i called most was secretary of health and human services in massachusetts, she worked for a republican governor. when she was like, are you going to let them have professional football? i was like, nope.

okay, neither are we, neither are we. so it was like conversations like that. >> greg: conversations like that show you were just making it up and laughing at everybody behind our backs. wow. she's the new choice to run the cdc as part of new strategic overhaul, they created covid policy like teenage girls wearing matching out fits for first day of school and part of impl implementation of obama care. remember that? let me refresh your memories. i'm sorry. i'm sorry. that tape was supposed to show something not awesome. that was amazing.

jeff, i don't think you could crap on front of a boat. >> i could do that, i could definitely do that. >> greg: does this bother you? covid lockdown, she gets rewarded for what she's done? >> it's crap. also, i had that exact same thing happen to me once. my girlfriend is like, i'm not giving him football and i was at crate and barrel and some dumb farmers market. it wasn't about power, it is about making men miserable. take away sports and making us stay home all day, a woman's dream. >> greg: lauren, we suspected they were laughing at us and she laughed at us. >> i know, this is irritating, i was one of the person who listened to all the rules back in the day. that was me. >> greg: get her, audience, rip

her to shreds. >> i know. that is the problem now, 44% of americans trust the cdc, how can you do anything if less than half the country trusts your policies? who is getting a covid booster right now? fifth of adults, if even. like that shows, that is what they were doing to us. if she is the change coming to the cdc, it is more status quo. >> >> greg: she is a doctor. >> i give injections. >> greg: she sounded like a ditzy sorority chick. >> made me hopeful we will dismantle institutions, starting with the cdc. that is one thing i liked about president trump, he had the energy secretary, hates the department of energy.

i wanted rick perry to be like, screw it, we're going to shut it down. department of education, fda, cdc, so much we don't need, incredible amount of power and doesn't matter if they declared covid emergency over, they still have all of our tax money and finding ways to control our lives and she is prime example of that. that is first thing i thought of mindy cohen, i thought she was natalie green, i would rather see secretary tuti. >> greg: kat, that is before your time. when government grows, it just grows and they take your money and treat you with less respect than they did without your money. yep. >> >> greg: libertarians. >> i agree, you should shut it down. she wasn't laughing like ha, ha, it was like moy, ha, ha, ha.

jokes are great, that wasn't a joke. she was like, you suckers, eat it. that is the lady you pick? good news, we know they are full of it. we decided to get better. everyone should be pissed off. >> greg: laughing about how easy it was. >> because none of the people who made the rules had to follow the rules. it doesn't affect them, everyone else paying their salary. >> greg: inmate's mission to get taxpayers to cover her transition.

my daughter is aspen. she's intelligent. she's cute. she's everything. when we knew about her disease, it crushed our heart. st. jude gave us hope. it saved the family. you have a home, food on the table. you have a team that's willing to help you out.

all you got to do is take care of your child, focus on her healing, give her a life. that, for a mother, means a lot. because this changed my perspective about life. but, you know, cancer, it's ironic how it can be a death sentence and at the same time tell you, hey, live, right? live. and now it's like we are living. and thank you to st. jude because you guys allow us to do that. >> greg: thank you. yeah. you clap now. wait until you hear this story. a guy goes to jail and gets paid to go female. it takes a lot of spunk to ask

taxpayers to rebuild your junk. transgender inmate christina lusk scored half a million bucks and winning vaginal plasty with department of corrections. i just said vaginal plasty on fox news, i won a bet. moved from a men's facility to a women's, first time an inmate moved to a facility gender matching in minnesota. got to hand it to lusk, she is not taking her junk with you, usually to lose your balls, you have to marry the wrong woman. terrible. up next -- don't clap. group called gender justice filed lawsuit on her behalf,

alleging she was abused by male inmates. lusk is serving for a felony drug offense until 2024. she started transitioning in 2009, before being arrested. she will be out in less than a year, she sued state of minnesota in part because it deferred her request for the rest of the sex change surgery. i know not the point of the story, $495,000 seems expensive to cut off a penis, i could do it for 10 grand. fellows, if you can't afford that sex change, sell drugs, even if you get arrested, you'll win. this drives me nuts, no pun on the nuts. lauren, he's not paying for it because he's in prison. if he was not in prison, he would have to pay for it, why does being inside prison make

the taxpayer foot the bill? this drives me crazy. >> yeah, drives me crazy, too. not fair to anybody majority of the prisoners, they have to deal with lusk and 47 other transgender prisoners. if i say i identify as male, i want to be put in the male prison because i don't want to hang out with the other females. how do you prove that? >> greg: no one posed that question. for christina, she changed her birth certificate to be female and had top surgery. >> greg: they added breasts. i hate the top and bottom. >> you just want to say the v word. >> greg: part of that, top and bottom, way of obscuring what is going on. i don't give -- about adults, i'm concerned about kids and

talking about top and bottom, it pisses me off. >> minnesota and california are two states where kids can go and box out parents and get gender affirming care thchl is minnesota and some other state thing, but feel like it is expanding. you can say they are one thing, and a criminal, they give you what you want. >> greg: kennedy, where are the adults to call bs on these things? >> if you want to save money and come out ahead in the long run, then sell drugs, get busted for it, go to prison, hang out with hot prison chicks and then get your surgery taken care of. the other things, if you're a fella, start playing women's sports, it is like guaranteed scholarship and so much pressure on some of the professional leagues to allow transitioning former males that you really,

you have it made. >> greg: conflate both of them, kat, prison sports, male identifying as female and then cleaning up in prison female sports. >> good luck. >> great idea. >> greg: that's all i needed. >> no, i agree it is about the tax money here, for me, it doesn't only apply to the vagina, it applies to the fact this was a drug possession charge. even if it was a drug sale charge, if just drugs and no violence, you know how expensive to keep somebody behind bars for years and years because they like drugs. that is your decision and your problem to deal with the consequences, we wasted more money than just the vagina, a

victimless behavior that affects them and the government should not be involved at all. >> greg: great point, they shouldn't imprison her, just her vagina. but it doesn't there. because she's -- she would have to pay on her own if she were a he outside. last word, jeff? >> the funniest part of the story, i was not aware of this, people say trans women are women, you see the picture and you are like, ah. >> greg: you can't say anything. >> worst part of the story, discrimination case was client was being bullied by other mates. it's prison, this guy killed a family of five, you are like, he is not using my pronouns, so dumb. >> greg: so true. up next, podcasts have fun making women look dumb. pro starts working instantly.

isn't it about time? it has been dumb white guys. >> no, i mean, look, i guess you should not care about the internet calls you dumb. if i cared, i would never get out of bed. i'm not dumb, or i wouldn't be here. she said like, it is a verbal pause, nothing to do with my intelligence. >> greg: true, people in -- >> you are smart for saying the same joke 300 times. >> greg: you set it up. kennedy, talks about patriarchy and how many men they slept with and they roast them. >> like marshmallows, it's nonot fair, patriarchy is real. men will look for nuggets in

places. we have to thank for this, jimmy kimmel, the man show created disgusting paradigm and she how awful men really are and he is author of this and he should have to live in fame and listen to the rest of his broadcasting days. >> greg: in a women's prison. have you heard of this podcast? >> he is not making anyone look dumb, they say dumb stuff. he could be casting them, guilty of that, you should never ridicule or make fun of a woman's looks. that is what the group chat is for. they are like, we have group chats, now ladies like, we'll golf with you. all right, we'll go to the group chat and our group chats are becoming podcasts, this guy is breaking guy code, if you ask me. >> greg: last word, doctor. >> anybody can have a podcast,

this is what happens when you let anybody host something. they edit it accordingly for their point. >> greg: i've watched and you can't stop watching. stupid people are more fun than smart people. >> that is why vanderpump rules -- >> greg: when that show is mentioned, our show is over. don't go anywhere, we'll be right back. t back.

don't want to get too political. come see me live next week in spokane, washington at spokane comedy love and in boca, florida the week after. >> greg: hot takes. i love you, america. >> todd: a fox news alert, house oversight committee james comer will initiate contempt of congress hearings against fbi director christopher wray this very week. you are watching "fox and friends first," i'm todd piro. >> carley: i'm carley shimkus. a document allegedly links joe biden to 5 million bribery scheme, when he was vice president and the chairman says every lawmaker needs to see it. >> my question to the fbi was, what have yo
