11:01 am
early. colon cancer surging especially among people younger than the recommended age for screenings. >> jacqui: study suggests cases could double by people under 40 by the end of the decade and could be the leading cause of cancer deaths for people under 50. researchers are baffled as to why it's even happening. >> john: do they have any theories, and what can you do to keep it from happening to you? we'll try to answer that question for you today. welcome back as "america reports" rolls into a second hour. i'm john roberts. great to spend friday with you. >> jacqui: happy friday, john. colon cancer impacting hundreds of thousands across the country. and medical analysis from dr. saphier. >> john: game time in a number of hours, los angeles dodgers are set to host a group of drag queen nuns during the team's annual pride night.
11:02 am
sisters of perpetual indulgence will also receive an award, and it has many catholics upset. >> jacqui: faith leaders say it mocks catholicism, and the weeks' long saga leaving players and fans split on the dodgers' decision. >> john: covered from all the angles. jonathan morris and tommy valentine are standing by. >> jacqui: william joins us live from los angeles. tonight is pride night, so why did the league commissioner tell teams not to wear pride jerseys they had just designed. >> to protect the players of being emblematic of something that offsides many fans and pro lgbt agenda conflicts with many players' personal views. but in l.a. the controversy o on steroids because of what the dodgers did, the group raises
11:03 am
money for aids and lgbt causes by mocking catholics. they consider it a hate group and advocacy group criticizing the team. >> on june 16th, a prominent anti-catholic hate group will be honored on the field, a group that mocks catholic nuns with vile sexual perversions, pole dances on crossings, lessons with sex toy, and sexualizing the virgin mary, honored, awarded, celebrated? no equality in mocking religious, no pride in anti-catholic bigotry. >> today the l.a. archbishop is holding a mass to offer prayers for the harm done by the dodgers and driving a wedge in the community of latinos, catholics, gay, around a team they universally support but a group
11:04 am
many don't. tonight catholics will protest in what they call a peaceful procession around the stadium. don't bring your kids as they expect a violent reception. city leaders and prominent democrats have rallied around the drag group. >> the sister of per pep actual indulgence are an important civic organization. they raise money for people who are in desperate need of support. they are not in any way anti-catholic. >> opening pitch, jacqui, tonight after 7:00 local time. both sides claim to be compassionate. we'll see if they treat each other that way. back to you. >> jacqui: william, thanks so much. >> john: jonathan morris, theologian and fox news contributor, and tommy valentine, he will be at a protest outside dodgers stadium today. and celebrating pride night is one thing, but can you fathom any reason why the l.a. dodgers
11:05 am
is going to honor this group that mocks catholics tonight? >> yeah, that's right. well, it seems that anything that flies under the pride flag is acceptable, no matter what it is, bigotry is ok as long as it flies under the rainbow banner. they engage in parody and satire, but we have should have learned by now in this country that bigotry disguised as entertainment is still bigotry. we have examples of that in history and it's not acceptable what they are doing, to mock and shame the nuns who give their lives in service to the church and community is reprehensible, and a colleague brought up an interesting point, his theory is the dodgers have wanted to do this for a long time but waiting until vin scully dying to do it,
11:06 am
he was himself a lifelong catholic. so who knows, it seems this is an agenda against catholics and it's unfortunate. >> john: clayton kershaw is not in support of this. he said i don't agree with making fun of other people's religions. nothing to do with other than that. i don't think no matter what religion you are you should make fun of somebody else's religion. that's something i don't agree with. the last time we brought this up, jonathan, we made the point that if -- rather than being the sisters of perpetual indulgence, if they were the imams, would they be celebrated tonight? >> yeah, john, great point. i hope there is a resounding boo, boo, boo to what's going on here. this is not about gays versus straight people. it's nothing to do with this. it has to do with the fact that the ownership and the management
11:07 am
of the los angeles dodgers, right, means the angels, have decided that they are going to honor a group that in its very name is bigotted, it's the sister of perpetual indulgence. indulgence in this case is a mockery of perpetual adoration of jesus. so indulgence of sins, indulgence of whatever it happens to be. there should be an resounding boo from the crowd and i hope that that sends a message to the ownership don't try to pretend that this is about respect for gay pride month. this has to do with a mockery of people as tommy mentioned so well, catholic vote has done so well at, to say these people have given their lives for taking care of our sick, of our orphans, etc., etc., not
11:08 am
perfect, but that's what they have done and now we are mocking them and pretenning it's virtueous. it's shameful. >> tommy, you are going to be one of the people out there saying boo about the idea, but the sisters of perpetual indulgence say they are ok with that, after 27 years of activism and protests ourselves, including prop 8 for the right to marry the ones we love, we cannot complain about our fellow angelinos for expressing their first amendment rights. they are saying, protest us, we are with you supporting your right to do that. >> well, sure, and look, we don't hate these men, you know, we are here to gather in prayer, here to gather in love, to show that our religion is important to us and to make it known that these people may be hurting us deeply but we are going to show them love. we are going to pray, make reparation, and so i hope this never happens again on a baseball field or any company in this country, really. and i think the message that
11:09 am
major league baseball and commissioner manford need to hear, baseball is something people invest in their whole lives and people disturbed by what the dodgers are doing are not going to become giants fans, they are going to stop watching, stop buying merchandise. we will send a message of love and prayer but shouldn't happen gin in the country. >> john: the dodgers disinvited the group when the catholics protested, but then after lgbtq protested, los angeles dodgers would like to offer our sincerest apologies to the sisters of perpetual indulgence, members of the lgbtq+ community and friends and families. dodgers made a decision it was less costly for them politically
11:10 am
to tick off catholics than to tick off the lgbtq+ community. >> yeah, i'm not going to guess what their motivations are. they may well be purely commercial like you suggest, john. but let me tell you, this gives me hope because if they're willing to vacillate and go with the crowd from purely commercial reasons or whatever it happens to be, maybe they are going to learn from tonight in just a few hours that people booing and saying i'm not going to watch, i don't care what your purpose or agenda is but don't try to mock people in the name of virtue or goodness. it gives me hope. maybe they are so weak in terms of ownership or management that they will reverse again and that is a good thing. >> john: we'll, we'll see what happens tonight, dodgers stadium. tommy valentine, jonathan morris, great to see you, and tommy, thanks, appreciate it. interesting night tonight.
11:11 am
>> jacqui: it will, i'm going to watch the game, i guess, and see what happens. >> john: some very vocal catholics there tonight. they have been told that you can bring signs to hold up but make the message religious and not political. >> jacqui: interesting, trying to make clear their message is a religious one and not a political one so that is not misconstrued, since a lot of the criticism around the pushback is that you are against the gay community, the trans community if you push back on these things. >> john: catholics have been told make sure you make it all about mocking the catholic religion. nothing else. >> jacqui: a top house committee gathering in north carolina for a field hearing on infrastructure security. we are going to look at what role the latest cyber attack on the u.s. government played in the proceedings. >> john: doctors are warning about an increase in the number of colon cancer cases among
11:12 am
younger americans. what is behind the stunning surge. dr. nicole saphier is up next. >> i think that it's important with the new data come out with the increasing incidents of colorectal cancer in younger patients that primary care physicians have a lower threshold to get patients evaluated sooner. the lows of bipolar depression feel darkest before dawn. with caplyta, there's a chance to let the light shine through. and light tomorrow, with the hope from today. this is a chance to let in the lyte. caplyta is a once-daily pill that is proven to deliver significant relief across bipolar depression. unlike some medicines that only treat bipolar i, caplyta treats both bipolar i and bipolar ii depression. and in clinical trials, movement disorders and weight gain were not common. call your doctor about sudden mood changes, behaviors, or suicidal thoughts. antidepressants may increase these risks in young adults. elderly dementia patients

11:18 am
>> john: a new study tracking a worrying spike in colon cancer diagnoses by the age of 40 is expected to double, and on track to be a leading cause of cancer deaths under 50. and what might be going on here, but jonathan serrie is live in atlanta, and jonathan, what have you heard is driving this trend? >> yeah, scientists don't know for sure, but they believe it's external factors because cancer genetics really have not changed. maybe changes in diet and more sedentary lifestyle. whatever the cause, more younger patients suffering from what many had thought was an older person's disease. >> one of my most memorable patients, doing cross fit three times a week, training for the marathon and having irregular
11:19 am
bowel movements nine months and the doctor thought there was no way she could have the colorectal cancer. when i met her, 60 to 65% of her liver was involved already. >> screening has reduced rates overall but patients under 50, raise are increasing 1 to 2% a year since the mid 1990s. coloscopy can find and remove polyps, but most people routine screening does not begin until the age of 45. experts say it's important for younger people to speak with their doctors about any persistent gastrointestinal symptoms. >> abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, weight loss, could be early signs of colorectal cancer need to be taken seriously and healthcare teams tend not to pay symptoms as -- pay as much attention in younger adults. >> because of this trend, some doctors would like to see the
11:20 am
recommendations for the age that you start routine coloscopy reduced, something lower than the age of 45. but the procedures are expensive and so there is a cost risk benefit analysis going on with insurers, doctors, and the patients themselves. >> john: and you have a personal connection as well. what happened with your family? >> my younger brother was my best friend growing up and in 2017 the summer of 2017 he started not feeling well, doctors spent about a month trying to find out what was wrong. finally ordered a coloscopy and found a large mass in his colon they think had been growing about five years. it had already spread, he had great doctors, they did what they could to save him, but several months later, before the end of the year, he had passed away.
11:21 am
at the time they did not recommend routine coloscopy for families that didn't have a history of colorectal cancer like ours until the age of 50. before my brother, no one in my family had colorectal cancer and so he was not due for his first colonoscopy until 50. he was 48 years old. >> oh, my goodness. and if you get a colonoscopy and it's clear, greatly reduced your chances of ever contracting colon cancer, it's a statistical number. the recommendations for colorectal screening have been moved up to 45. based on this new evidence, may be a drop to push it to 40 or lower than that. >> some doctors are already calling for it. definitely a story i'm going to pay close attention to because i miss my brother terribly. >> jonathan, we are so sorry for your loss, but good report and a lot of food for thought here. jonathan, thank you.
11:22 am
>> thank you, my friend. >> jacqui: colon cancer often goes undetected until it spreads to other areas of the body, obviously making it more hard to treat. so, for more on this, dr. nicole saphier, board certified radiologist and assistant professor at memorial sloan kettering cancer center, also a fox news contributor, doctor, hearing jonathan's story, it gets you. stories like that make you wonder if the recommendations are correct. where do you fall on this idea that screenings should be changed to their -- their guidelines should be changed? >> well, jacqui, it is devastate to think hear about jonathan's brother and unfortunately a story far too common. a young individual diagnosed with a cancer that is a late stage cancer, more difficult to treat, and about 43% of all colorectal cancers are diagnosed in those 45 to 49 years of age,
11:23 am
which is why the american cancer society has recently decreased that age of onset for screening from 50 down to 45. is 45 enough? we are starting to see cancers in 20 to 49. and there are intrinsic and extrinsic factors. genetics, 15 to 30% in young adults have a genetic mutation. we also have an increase in dietary associated cancers and sedentary lifestyles, antibiotic use and some fungal infections. it doesn't necessarily make sense for people to start with screening colonoscopy younger than 45 for various reasons, but because of this rise in incidents in the younger colorectal cancer diagnosis, perhaps we should consider doing the fecal occult blood samples,
11:24 am
you screen for blood in the stool at a lower age. i am all for that.enter but physicians themselves need to be listening to their patients. patients know their bodies better than anyone else. so if you have a young patient with symptoms, colon cancer needs to be on your radar. >> jacqui: i wanted to bring up some numbers in the rise of colon cancer cases among young people. look at these numbers. among people age 20 to 34, that rate is -- it's up by 90%. i mean, that's a huge number. and increase by almost 28%, people age 35 to 49. why is that? >> well, and again, it's multi-factorial and we don't have the actual answers what is happening. a lot has to do with lifestyle choices, diet, processed foods, red meat, a new study is looking
11:25 am
at metabolites in the colon and body from how bodies break down certain foods and all of this plays a part. a rise in obesity, sedentary lifestyle and also our diet that are linking the rise in colorectal cancers in younger adults and we have to get to a healthier place in society. we are seeing many other cancers as well as other conditions secondary to poor lifestyle choices. >> jacqui: if you want to improve the numbers, good reason to cut back on red meat and sugar intake. what is this piece good certain fungus potentially linked to the cases. what is that about? >> a lot of thoughts what's going on in our gut, we have a lot of bacteria in there that are supposed to be there, some not supposed to be there, and with the overprescribing of antibiotics through several decades, the gut biom has
11:26 am
changed, and fungi in the colon could potentially also contribute to the rise in colorectal cancer and part of that is on the medical establishment. there has been overprescribing and we have resistant bacteria, and we as a medical community need to look at what we have done to be a part of this and how we can stop that in its track, is there something more we can be be doing. and for the patients, you need to make sure you are not overtaking antibiotics yourself. people like to call their doctor and get antibiotics with a viral infection or something that doesn't necessarily need antibiotics. all of this has contributed to the disruption in the normal flora. >> that's really interesting. thank you so much for being with us. appreciate your time. >> thanks for having me. >> jacqui: her point about the
11:27 am
gut is very interesting. you wonder what you can do to remedy that. >> john: a number of things you can do. and -- not saying the internet is a great source of medical information, but there are doctors all over the internet who are talking about the gut microbiom, and now more people are talking about candida, that's the fungal spore that you were mentioning and how an overabundance of that can really affect people systemically, not just in their gut. and point out as well, you had the right number but the graphic that came up about the increase in colorectal cancers, should have read 20 to 34, not 20 to 24, so the age range is much wider. >> and going up by 90% in the group of age 20 to 34, 90% increase, that is just really wild and when you take jonathan's story that you are not getting the screenings at a younger age, you wonder, you know, are people taking
11:28 am
seriously the risk and are you really thinking about well now in my youth i need to cut back on sugar and red meat. >> john: when you go to the doctor, you have to be your own best advocate or the emergency room, a doctor who is very, very busy will look at you and say do you fit the normal criteria for x diseases at your age compared to what your symptoms are, and very often they say you are too young for colorectal cancer and rule that out. as we found, including jonathan's brother, it's something you do need to consider. so, be your own best advocate when you go to the doctor. an american tourist killed at a popular attraction in germany. another american carried it out against her and her friend. >> jacqui: essential for families with young kids, but harder to afford. shocking spike in childcare costs. dagen mcdowell is here to break

11:33 am
11:34 am
>> jacqui: a u.s. citizen under arrest in germany for the death of a tourist and assault of her friend. the suspect shoved the two women down a steep slope. so bill, what are you hearing? >> bill: jacqui, german police say it was a violent attack against two american women, both of whom were essentially lured on to a path, then assaulted and both thrown off of a steep cliff. allegedly at the hands of an american man now in custody. you can see the american man being arrested by german police. attack took place near a tourist area near a castle in southern germany. the two american women, ages 21 and 22, were visiting the area and met the suspect, a 30-year-old american man by total coincidence as he was also
11:35 am
taking a look at the area. german police say after meeting the man on a hiking path, he lured the two women on to a trail that leads up to a viewpoint and that is when he decided to violently attack the younger woman and her friend tried to jump in to help. take a listen. >> the older one tried to rush to her aid, was then choked by the suspect and subsequently pushed down a slope. subsequently, an alleged sexual assault to the detriment of the younger woman then occurred. the suspect also allegedly pushed down the slope. >> so yeah, both women were shoved down that steep slope and fell nearly 165 feet. they were both eventually rescued by german authorities. the 22-year-old who tried to defend her friend was responsive and was taken to a hospital, but tragically, the younger 21-year-old, she was unresponsive and she later died at a hospital. the u.s. citizen suspected in the crime did leave the area, but he was arrested nearby a
11:36 am
short time later. a german judge has ordered the american man held in jail on suspicion of murder, attempted murder and a sexual offense. l neither his identity or the i.d.s of the victims have been released yet. >> john: childcare is taking a bigger and bigger dent out of budgets. increased 220% since 1990, outpacing inflation by far, which has gone up 183% in that period. the average american family spending $10,000 a year per child. dagen mcdowell, host of "the bottom line," look at this, average cost of childcare, $10,600 for one child, i had varies as much as $20,000 a year depending on which state you are in, and it takes on average 11% of a married couple's earnings. you count blame folks for not
11:37 am
wanting to have children right away. >> indeed, john. and if you, the most expensive places in the united states are exactly where you are sitting and i'm sitting. washington, d.c. is the worst. more than $24,000, massachusetts, connecticut, new york, and colorado. the cheapest, of course you've got to head down south, mississippi, arkansas, kentucky, and then up in south dakota, and down in louisiana, all gorgeous places to live. but a couple of things here. i'm always suspect of these studies because what it really gets down to is they seem to be geared toward getting parents, people, voters, to push for the federal government to spend more money on subsidies and tax breaks for not just having children, but childcare. but we all know that when the
11:38 am
government subsidizes something it jacks up the costs of it. look no further than housing, which has massive subsidies for more, on mortgages, tax breaks, you create bubbles over and over again. student lending is controlled by the government and we see what's happened with the government of colleges. and there was the enhanced child tax credit, additional up to $300 during covid that got taken away, and if you listen to how the "new york times" described it, it said for a brief period during the coronavirus pandemic the federal government gave most parents monthly cash up to $300 per child with no work requirements or restrictions. but that died last year. that was recently in the "new york times." they noted that states are starting to hand out money to
11:39 am
lower income families for childcare. so this is a state issue versus a federal government issue. this is my opinion. i regretbly, we do not have children, so i called sean duffy, of course, he has nine children with his gorgeous wife rachel. >> john: he knows a thing or two about it. >> and my family members as well and he said that you -- before you start having kids, these are conversations that you have to have about living near family, they can help, living in low cost states, and now more than ever you can achieve the greatest work/childcare balance because people can work from home, and this back to the office thing is just balderdash. the companies trying to make you go back to the office, john -- >> john: because they have a huge investment in real estate. >> if you can't get people
11:40 am
sitting in the desk, in the office, it drives down the value of the buildings they stupidly bought. so i just think that these are all questions. you know, i have a family member, one spouse has worked full-time, they have three children, and the other spouse has spent every waking moment raising those children. and that was their choice before they ever got married. and we did not have children but that allowed me to care for my mother who, when she got metastatic cancer, so i was her healthcare advocate, i was -- i learned that i could be a caregiver even though i was not a mother, and so i took care of her until she died for five and a half years. so we, you know, we all make choices, and i think that's what this is about. >> john: we do, and that was a great choice for you as well. but, if you want to experience children, i have a couple of
11:41 am
12-year-olds and a dog you can borrow any time you like. >> i don't know if i said anything to help about the cost of childcare. i just think that it's a vast country and more and more -- sean said one thing i want to pass on. he said the foundation of all society is your family. please choose to get married and start a family. >> john: and we had some data from pew research that showed 2021 only 22% of people were married by the age of 25. back in 1980, 63% were. so, a lot of folks are putting that off. you know, it could be also because people are projected to live longer as well. >> i've been married twice, though. so -- it's also a great financial contract in the words of judge judy, so if you get married and you bust up, everything is split in half that you accumulated during the marriage. so there you go. it's easy.
11:42 am
don't ever cohabitate, then you are fighting over a phone bill. >> jacqui: protecting the nation's power grid. the focus of a congressional field hearing in north carolina, looking at that, and we are looking at what witnesses say we need to do to keep the lights on. >> john: with the supreme court decision looming on the president's student loan plan, republicans in both chambers releasing plans of their own. is there room for a compromise with democrats? shannon bream joins us coming up on that.

>> john: the house energy committee conducting a field hearing, a year after someone opened fire in the town, cutting power to more than 40,000 people for days. it also follows a cyber attack yesterday on government systems. congressional correspondent aishah hasnie live in washington with the latest on all of this. the lawmakers are calling on the biden administration for a briefing? >> that's right, john. good afternoon to you. both democrats and republicans want t hear from the department of energy quickly. they say this attack underscores why congress really needs to help federal agencies secure
11:48 am
critical infrastructure like our power grid. the attack happened right before members went to north carolina to talk about securing the nation's grid. last year somebody shot up two substations knocking out power to 45,000 people and it was not a one-off, john. according to the department of energy, attacks on the grid were up 77% nationwide from 2021 to 2022. lawmakers grilled private utility companies today saying that they really need to start working with the federal government to prevent these kinds of attacks. >> intelligence security memo detailing at least 15 instances over the course of less than a year. threatening and calling for acts of sabotage against energy. >> congressman, when we get specific intelligence about increased threats in an area, we will surge security resources. >> i don't think you did that. we had two people arrested planning attacks in washington and oregon. did you know about that? >> we did.
11:49 am
>> you didn't take additional steps to secure your infrastructure, i think that's a problem. >> and john, lawmakers are also very concerned about the supply chain, getting replacement transformers from overseas, it could take up to two years. john. >> john: aishah hasnie, the latest in washington. thank you. >> president biden's scheme does nothing to drive the underlying cause of the debt crisis. our legislation puts downward pressure on tuition. >> it is really trying to ensure that families, the majority of families earning up to 125,000 for individual, or 250 for family, are able to access higher education. >> the student loan debt battle on capitol hill is intensifying, as house republicans have their own plan to provide student loan relief, a day after senate republicans released a version of their own and as the supreme court considers the fate of president biden's massive
11:50 am
