5:00 am
no, no, stop! oh you're no fun. [lock clicks shut] >> our focus is getting as much capability into the area. >> the clock is ticking to rescue five people aboard a submersible that went missing during a dive to view the titanic wreckage. >> worst scenario they will run out of oxygen before they can be rescued. >> hurricane season is right around the corner. list will start with bret. >> dialing towards the caribbean with 40-mile-per-hour winds. >> powerful system is expected to become a hurricane tomorrow. >> i would like to be less combative. >> bret baier scoring an hehe c exclusive interview with donald trump grilling the frontrunner on everything. >> why did you have those documents? >> i have every right to have those boxes. >> all eyes will be on durham as he testifies erned oath in front of the house judiciary committee about his 300-page report. >> conclusively states this was
5:01 am
a result of people that had political bias. >> you tube under fire after removing an interview with r.f.k. jr. claiming it violates their vaccine information policy. >> if we were editing this, joe biden videos would be taken down because he said vaccinated people couldn't get covid. >> will: fox news alert. clock is ticking to rescue five people aboard a submersible like this one that went missing during a dive to view the titanic wreckage site. >> brian: officials say the vessel has less than 70 hours before it runs out of air. >> ainsley: submarine can leave from a port. submersible cannot. that's why it's called a sub but not a submarine. todd joins us now with more. hey, todd. >> massive search and rescue operation under way right now for that submersible missing in the north atlantic. it was transporting a crew of five people some 12,000 feet underwater to tour the famous shipwreck. costs passengers about $250,000
5:02 am
per person. now, the crew launched around 4:00 a.m. on sunday. lost communication roughly two hours later. officials now fear it sank too far down for a manned rescue. u.k. billionaire harding believed to be on board the vessel along with veteran french diver and crew member paul henry nargala one of pakistan's richest men, and his teenaged son also on board, according to a statement from his company. coast guard officials say they are exhausting every search effort possible. >> this particular sib mea -- submersible is advertised as 96 hours of survival time. we'll continue searching for all means to try to locate the crew members. >> will: oceangate releasing its own statement saying "we are exploring and mobilizing all options to bring the crew back safely." we spoke with a navy veteran on the rescue mission at hand. >> i think you have to keep the
5:03 am
optimism and you have to focus in on the mission. the potential for the folks on board to survive is at least until thursday midday. just based on nominal oxygen on this vessel. now, if the folks on board, you know, they took active measures to slow down their activity level and try to conserve their breathing, they might be able to thin that out a little bit. >> will: as of now, experts say the vessel has less than 70 hours before it runs out of air. back to you. >> thank you, todd. >> will: there's a chance that the power is out. people are surmising that could be the case. that's why they lost communication. we keep putting a time limit on how much oxygen they have. as i understand it, there's also a machine in the submersible that scrubs your c02 so every time you breathe out, you're in essence poisoning the air and limiting your time further. but they have a machine that scrubs that c02. there's no power, is that machine working? do they truly have all that time with oxygen? >> ainsley: i wonder if weather was a factor.
5:04 am
billionaire put this on facebook. due to the worst weather in newfoundland in 40 years, this mission is likely to be the first and only manned mission to the titanic in 2023. a weather window has just opened up and we are going to attempt to dive tomorrow. >> brian: wow. >> ainsley: a reporter from cbs, from the sunday morning segment, he went down in this sub last year, and he tweeted this out. you may remember that oceangate sub to the titanic got lost for a few hours last summer, too, when i was on board. >> brian: wow. it's going to be a big day on capitol hill and tomorrow, congressman michael waltz, member of the house intel committee joins us now. congressman, good to see you. john durham comes to testify on capitol hill today to expand on his, i think, four-year investigation and report that come out and a lot of people want to dismiss it. what's going to be your focus today?
5:05 am
>> well, brian, look, i mean, there is clear rot in the senior levels of the department of justice. president trump was right. this was a hoax, this crossfire hurricane was a farce. and once again, we have the powers of the state being directed back then at a presidential campaign and then at a sitting president himself. and brian, what i'm going to be drilling down on is the fact that they all knew. brennan clapper, comey, mccabe, all of them, loretta lynch, all of them, they knew before trump was elected. this surveillance of a presidential campaign should have never been started in the first place. but then, how the bureau and the department of justice let it go on on a sitting president and drug the country through the mud.
5:06 am
damaged our ability to interact on the international stage, and damaged a president. and damaged trust in -- from the american people into our law enforcement institutions in a way that i don't know that we'll ever will ever be restored. >> ainsley: congressman, donald trump was on with bret baier last night. i'm not sure if you saw the whole interview. he was slamming biden's foreign policy and saying china never would have spent that spy balloon if he was in office. talked about ukraine and russia and russia would never have invaded if he were in office. listen to what he said about the spy balloon. >> they wouldn't have had a spy balloon if i was president. there wouldn't be a spy balloon over our country. that spy balloon was going right over our nuclear sites taking pictures, and we killed it after it had -- it was leaving. it was going back home to china, wherever it was going. but we shot it down over the ocean after it had done all of its work. you know, they don't keep it on the balloon and then you pick it up. that stuff is sent back to china
5:07 am
instantaneously as it's taken. so a statement like that is so stupid. they've taken pictures of every one of our nuclear facilities in the midwest where we have a lot where they know better than anybody that we have a lot. >> you're saying that wouldn't have happened under you. >> they wouldn't have done it. president xi and i had a strong relationship like i did with kim jong un of north korea. >> ainsley: do you agree with that? if president trump were in office when that spy balloon were coming closer to the united states, would he have shot it down? or intervened or even sent it at all? >> i do, ainsley. i think it would have been shot down over the pacific ocean and not the atlantic and certainly wouldn't have been allowed to linger over our missile silos and nuclear command and control center and a stealth bomber base for five days because i think, you know, what president trump is speaking to is right now our adversaries don't believe there's any consequences for their bad actions.
5:08 am
in fact, our adversaries have seen time and time again under biden they get rewarded for their bad actions from the colonial pipeline hack and putin gets a summit with biden afterwards to what we're seeing right now with blinken in beijing after harassing our ships, our planes, breaking into our bases, putting spy bases in cuba, the spy balloon, our secretary of state goes over on bended knee and look, there's a lot of people who say diplomacy, you have to move forward and always have to talk. absolutely. you can do that at lower levels. when you see our secretary of state going the way he just did, that actually invites aggression. president trump knew that how -- that deterrence kept the peace and that our adversaries believing there would be serious consequences to their interests under his watch was how wars were prevented during his time as president. >> will: let me ask you one more why on that question. so president trump suggests under his administration there would have been no spy balloon.
5:09 am
he's also suggested there wouldn't have been an invasion of ukraine by vladimir putin, you agree at least on the level of the spy balloon it would not have happened. the because you gave us is because the world responds to perceive lack of consequences. one more why i want to ask you -- why do you think china thinks there would be no consequences? do you think this is just a weak administration? or, in fact, is there some knowledge that the president of the united states, it's hard to ignore there is an investigation into whether or not he's been compromised by previous play for pay deals in ukraine and perhaps in china. do they think yeah, he'll not do anything because he's on our team? >> well, i think it's a combination of both, frankly. i think that the chinese know that biden, which he has said believes that if we can just engage economically that if we can just stay coupled, that eventually good things will happen that eventually china will change politically.
5:10 am
it's that old thinking. it's the op ed that representative gallagher had of that zombie approach that just won't go away and they won't recognize the chinese communist party is in a cold war with the united states because they want the world that we wish we were in that they wish we were in not the reality that we're actually facing. >> brian: "the wall street journal" has a story today not only does china have their presence in cuba. they're expanding four new bases in cuba. why would we allow that? and their comeback is hey, you have bases in taiwan. we're going to put bases in cuba. number one, it backs up why we didn't support the revolution that was taking place there a couple of years ago. and number two is we're just allowing them to expand. they're daring us to do something. >> look, you guys, you've nailed it, you know, you're hitting the nail on the head. i mean, at the end of the day, this is -- our adversaries smell
5:11 am
weakness in this white house. they are going to continue to push and get as much as they can. we need a doctrine and we need our adversaries to feel consequences and at the end of the day, this is what happens when the united states is no longer respected as a global leader and when you have xi right now saying democracy is on the decline. the united states is on the decline. capitalism doesn't work and you better side with us and not them. >> brian: right. meanwhile, it's them -- their economy is the one that's sucking wind right now underperforming in almost every aspect, unemployment at 20% from 18 to 35-year-olds. they're economically vulnerable even though they're giving out different air, let's say. >> will: yeah. >> yeah, no, that's right. but there's a lot of people that believe that xi will accelerate his plans on taiwan and become more aggressive as he has problems -- as he has problems
5:12 am
at home. so we are in a period of maximum danger right now and meanwhile, this is no time to underfund our military and to take the military's focus off of deterring wars. how you stop wars from happening is appearing to be the biggest, baddest guy on the block and what we should learn from ukraine is arm our allies beforehand. not after they've been invaded and after whole cities have been devastated. >> ainsley: yeah. not when it comes to taiwan. thank you so much, congressman. >> will: thanks, congressman. >> ok. thanks, guys. >> ainsley: you're welcome. carley has events for us. >> carley: starting here in new york city, at least four people are dead and two critically injured after a fire broke out at a new york city e-bike shop. fire crews pulled numerous residents from the six-story building yesterday afternoon. the shop was not believed to be open at the time. the cause of the blaze is still under investigation. golf legend tom watson says the pga tour is ignoring a moral
5:13 am
issue by making a deal with the saudi backers of liv golf. watson reaffirming his support for the families of the victims of the september 11th terrorist attacks in an open letter. the eight time major champion's letter reads, in part "i still await saudi acknowledgment of the role in the attacks of 9/11." and a salty spill. millions, millions of french fries scattered across a highway in utah after a truck reportedly crashed into a barrier and a light pole. >> what is that? >> it's french fries! it's french fries! >> all those french fries! >> it's all those french fries! >> carley: holy potato! traffic was backed up for miles on both sides with the cleanup taking hours. luckily, no one was hurt. that's quite the scene. french fries. >> brian: those were french fries? >> carley: yeah, a truck that was carrying french fries crashed into a pole and the french fries scattered everywhere. yeah.
5:14 am
>> brian: how's the driver? >> carley: thank you for paying attention. >> ainsley: you have the five second rule. you can stop your car and get out there if you're right behind the accident. >> brian: right. >> ainsley: check on the driver first. >> carley: if it's not a wet surface, i would say 10 seconds is fine. >> ainsley: ok. pete does not care if it's a wet surface. he would drop a hamburger right here on the floor, right, and then pick it up and eat it. >> will: he would. >> brian: he has a strong immunity. way to build up your immunity. eat a lot of foul stuff. right. coming up straight ahead, fairfax county schools is in the news a lot. and now the district is facing a subpoena from virginia's a.g. over a national merit scandal. i'll keep reading. leo terrell is a former history teacher and he's next. >> ainsley: i'll take over from here. plus, raining on their parade. climate protesters physically ejected from a hotel where the energy secretary was speaking. activist madness. look at that. dragged out. >> brian: will had nothing to do.

>> the virginia attorney general is continuing to investigate the issue of notifications to fcps high school students regarding national merit commendations. the independent investigation found no evidence of inequity or bias and no evidence that fcps deliberately withheld any student notifications. >> will: that school superintendent is now facing a subpoena from the virginia attorney general who says her answers aren't good enough. and vows to hold at least 17 schools accountable for failing to notify students of national merit awards in the name of equity. fox news contributor and democrat former democrat leo
5:20 am
terrell is a former history and social studies teacher as well and joins us now. leo, great to see you this morning. should we their word for it? hey, we looked into it. no racial bias here on the national merit awards notification. so just trust us. should we just trust those superintendents? >> absolutely not. that is a woke district, will. and i don't believe her at all. if they have anything -- if they are completely exonerated, show us the report. show the attorney general the report. that is a woke district. fox viewers should know 75% of those kids who are harmed by not getting that notification regarding national merit scholarship was -- were asian. asian students were permanently harmed because they couldn't use that information on their application. the attorney general wants to subpoena the information because this school district wants to white wash what they did. and basically, this happened in seven schools within that district. i don't believe her. it's a pretext.
5:21 am
and there should be a full investigation. that report should be disclosed. >> will: help me understand. they held back the award notification for national merit scholar primarily from asian-american students in order to make their numbers, school district numbers look better when it comes to equity, the racial balance that they wanted. and in the process, harmed those asian students, primarily asian students, not just in getting an award they deserved but in their applications for colleges as well. >> you are absolutely right. let me tell you why they wanted to withhold, in my opinion, they withheld this information. because they wanted everybody to feel good. that's the problem with this woke mindset. they want equity. they don't want individual merit. those kids are permanently harmed. and i'll tell you right now, if it's revealed that that report indicated that there was a racial component, those individual students and parents in my opinion have a civil rights action against that school district. you honestly believe that superintendent who is not a lawyer, who is basically out front telling the district and
5:22 am
telling the world we did nothing wrong. i don't believe her. >> will: we have to look really quickly, leo, we got to look into the ability for civil rights claims on these issues but culturally, it really is an issue where we are now, as a society, ok with discrimination as long as it's focused on white or asian-americans. >> isn't that crazy? i mean, we fought a war. we just celebrated a holiday yesterday. i mean, why the left plays the reverse race card and this just -- it doesn't make sense. as a civil rights attorney, i'm insulted by this kind of nonsense. >> will: you either look beyond their skin color and judge them according to their ability or character or you indulge in racism. it's easy. this isn't complicated. thanks so much for being with us. >> thank you, will. >> will: all right. fox news alert. five people missing at sea after a vessel disappears during a dive to the titanic wreck site. with limited oxygen remaining. we'll speak with the retired navy submariner on what went wrong. next.

5:27 am
>> ainsley: meanwhile, in the south, 29 million americans are under an excessive heat warning spanning texas, louisiana and mississippi and feels like temperatures are nearing 120 degrees in parts of the lone star state. >> brian: it is summer. the heat wave fueling severe storms that have left at least six people dead across the states. let's check in with janice dean for the fox weather forecast to put it in perspective. >> janice: lots to cover. let's start off with bret. it was forming yesterday around this time in the atlantic and we have a system behind it that will probably become cindy. it is rare to see these systems form so early off the coast of africa in june. so we're keeping an eye on that. here is bret. we're going to get a new advisory at 11:00 a.m. and right now, doesn't look that great on satellite imagery but we do expect it to become a hurricane in the next 12 to 24 hours. moving through the lesser antilles we think south of puerto rico. when you see tropical cyclone frequency, the peak is usually
5:28 am
in september. so we're already early with this kind of action. and we'll continue to monitor it. severe thunderstorms for parts of texas, louisiana, mississippi and up towards northern plains as well as florida and the mid atlantic. and then the heat. that's a huge story for texas and louisiana because it's been a couple of weeks now that we've seen temperatures well over 100 degrees with the heat index. it's going to be oppressive and people are urged to stay inside especially take care of the pets and your kids and the elderly. all right, we'll cover all of it. foxweather.com for all the latest details. will, ainsley and brian, to you. >> will: thank you, janice. let's head over to carley who has some more headlines. >> carley: certainly do. news out of idaho, rather, guys, we begin your headlines with this. murder suspect brian kohlberger is reportedly planning to protest his indictment in the killing of four idaho students. his lawyer petitioning to stop proceedings while they try to obtain more grand jury materials. he was arrested in december following an extensive weeks
5:29 am
long investigation. he opted to stay silent at the arraignment last month prompting the judge to enter a not guilty plea on all charges. the trial is set for october. new york city grocery store owners have been fighting back against shoplifting with the help of facial recognition technology. but now, the far left city council is pushing a bill to ban this over concerns of racial bias. earlier, a c.e.o. criticized the bill and told brian the software is necessary. >> investment that we have to make to get this installed in our stores. it's not like i'm doing it because i want to have something cool. i'd rather make the investment for something that makes a better shopping experience for my customers. >> brian: how long have you been in business? >> we've been in business for 45 years. >> brian: how bad is the shoplift sng>> i've never seen it this bad. it's spreading. it's not only people that are doing it professionally, we have people that are doing it just because they can get it away with it. >> carley: this measure has been gaining support over recent months among liberal leaders. but it's unclear yet if it will pass.
5:30 am
and security guards physically removing climate activists from a michigan hotel as they rallied against the energy secretary. the group began protesting the secretary -- as the secretary was speaking about the biden administration's green energy agenda. >> granholm, you are killing me. granholm, you are killing me. >> carley: the protesters claims that granholm pushes for more fossil fuels. >> hopped in her cars and drove away after that. she's as green as it gets. >> ainsley: she's with the biden administration. why are they protesting? at least they're not gluing themselves to something. that's a new trend. or destroying the paintings. >> brian: or the mona lisa. or the mona lisa. there's only one of them. all right. now this. fox news alert. lost at sea. the search mission is still
5:31 am
under way for the missing titanic sub with five people aboard. >> ainsley: the oceangate vessel lost contact with its support ship an hour and 45 minutes into what is normally a 2 1/2 hour dive down to the bottom. >> will: and time is of the essence with the occupants having just 96 hours of oxygen supply. our next guest is a retired navy submariner who is an expert in undersea warfare. brian clark joins us now. thanks for being with us this morning. so many details in this story. so many different potentialities. what's your top line takeaway as you look at where we are right now? what would your focus be? >> time is running out right now. i mean, they have a limited period of oxygen on board which is going to run out on thursday morning, it seems like, at the latest. and clearly, they've had multiple failures on board. so it's incumbent upon the rescuers to quickly locate the submarine or the submersible and try to provide some kind of aid to it because at this point, oxygen and carbon dioxide
5:32 am
build-up, as you noted earlier, are the biggest problems right now. >> brian: how hard is it to spot something from the sky like that if it was to float up? >> it's fairly difficult especially when you're talking about six foot seas like they have today. but with synthetic aperture radar, airplanes like the navy can find them relatively quickly. so if they were to float to the surface, it wouldn't be too long before they were located. i would expect they have some kind of radio device that will quickly alert people to the fact that they're now on the surface. >> ainsley: it's being reported this billionaire on board, his phone pinged when they were over the titanic and i guess they dropped down there. and they were on their way, i think, an hour and 45 minutes down to the titanic when they lost communication. what do you think happened? do you think it filled up with water? do you think they just lost communication, they're still alive inside? >> well, it seems like it's most likely they just lost communications. most of the communications that
5:33 am
are going to happen with the submarine are happening acoustically. so you use an acoustic radio, if you will, to talk with them. and it could just be that system has failed. the problem, though, is that system had failed, they should have come to the surface right away and the system -- or it has systems to be able to quickly surface. without that happening, it would suggest not only did they have a communication failure, other systems on the submersible are failing as well. >> will: you addressed the likelihood of being able to spot the submersible had it floated to the surface. what about if it is still intact but at the bottom of the sea somewhere? it was described a little earlier as, i believe, not exactly as a needle in a haystack but that's also very difficult to identify them somewhere on the bottom of the ocean. >> right. exactly. if they are on the bottom, there's a lot of clutter, obviously, the titanic wreckage is there. there's a large debris field. it may be very difficult to differentiate the submersible from all the other debris on the bottom. the submersible should have a pinger on it which is an
5:34 am
acoustic device that sends out a signal that might help the searchers locate it among the debris. but that means the searchers have to get some vehicles down there that can listen because the water is so deep, it may be difficult for acoustic signals to reach the surface. >> brian: i wonder how many times and how often they have a rescue plan. when you have a submersible like this, we read the russians always go down with two. is there rescue plan in place? all we have to do is break it out. they've already been through it? >> as far as i can tell, not with this submersible. so what submarines have are a common hatch configuration that aligns with the hatch configuration that's on our deep rescue vehicles and those are internationally common. there's an international standard for that. so if a submarine goes down, a deep vehicle can be sent to pull people off that submarine. that submersible doesn't have that. it's unclear they have a rescue plan in place and that they're in a position to be rescued even if there was a plan.
5:35 am
>> ainsley: i know they did have that support vehicle at the surface. really quickly, it's not lost on all of us this happened where the titanic went down. hundreds of people lost their lives there that day. and now this is happening. what do you think about that? >> clearly, this is a dangerous area of ocean. in winter, it's dangerous because of the ice. the weather is not that good there. they had a limited window in which to search and the window is closing because of the lack of air. >> brian: we know why the titanic had so much trouble. we move ahead. coming up, an insular marriage and inner circle of two and how about a feared partnership? that's how the mainstream media describes florida's first family. i'm not kidding. the latest attack.

>> ainsley: floflorida's first y is the subject of another attack, this time from the "washington post." the paper putting her marriage into focus calling it a couple of things. one being insular by letting no one else in. and an inner circle of two. but isn't that what marriage is supposed to be? or how about labelling their love as one of the most guarded and feared partnerships? washington examiner deputy editor of restoring america joins us now. good morning to you. >> good morning, ainsley. >> ainsley: good morning. what was your reaction to this? >> first, i hope the viewers at home know not to take marriage advice from "the washington post" since this is clearly describing a perfectly normal and healthy marriage. think about the words they're using to describe this. private. guarded. insular. those are the things that a marriage should be. who else needs to be involved in the inner workings of their marriage? but what this really is i think
5:41 am
it's an example of political sexism. and i say it's political because you only ever see these sorts of attacks on republican or conservative women. and casey desantis has been subjected to multiple attacks of this kind. politico ran a similar hit piece a few months ago calling her the next lady macbeth just a year after they denounced the return of the lady macbeth trope when it was used by biden so this is rank hypocrisy and classic case of sexism. >> ainsley: how much power does she have in the relationship? i don't know if you've talked to them. what is her influence on his life and his decision? >> i think her influence is what any good wife's influence is going to be. he values her advice. he talks to her about his career and his vision for florida and the country. this is exactly how a healthy married couple should be operating in the sense of these things. and so, you know, maybe she does have an outsized role in his

campaign. but again, this was never derided as a bad thing when it's talked about in the democratic sense. hillary clinton was praised for having a prominent role in her husband's presidency to the point where the media even encouraged her to run for president herself. and yet when casey desantis is involved with ron desantis' presidential campaign, that's somehow a problem and she's a "liability". >> ainsley: do you think she needs to do interviews? i loved her in that campaign video when she talked about how her husband was by her side every step of the way during her cancer treatments. do you remember that video? and then brian went down to tallahassee and went to the governor's mansion and interviewed the family inside. i remember the kids were like inside the punch bowl, this big silver bowl they had on the side table. one of the children was actually in the bowl. it gave life to the governor's mansion and little children were living there. it definitely pulled out personality of the family. do we need to see more of that? >> yeah, absolutely. she is such an asset for ron desantis who has been sometimes criticized for, you know, for
5:43 am
not being very charismatic or personable. casey desantis is all of those things. she's warm, beautiful and inviting. she really is a great asset for him and a great partner to him. and i'm sure she's been, you know, so helpful to him as he's navigating the campaign trail, meeting with voters. so, you know, the desantises should ignore the criticism. i'm sure they already have. but she's awesome.i hope to seee campaign trail. >> ainsley: we requested a lot of interviews with her and we were going to do it and then she pulled out a few times. and then she wrote me a letter and said i will sit down with you eventually. we're hoping to get that interview at some point soon. if she's watching, we'd love to talk to you. thanks so much, kaylee for coming on. great perspective. let's hand it to carley with some headlines for us. >> carley: listen to this. homelessness is on the rise across america. according to a new report from "the wall street journal." cities including chicago, miami, boston and phoenix all saw upticks from last year. experts say the spike could be due to the end of the pandemic era housing protections and the

we thought it could be two years. for many years, ford and team rubicon have combined to promote assistance after disasters. ford is announcing a new $5.8 million for team rubicon to help scale up their operations including a brand new fleet of trucks and s.u.v.'s. joining us now is the ford fund president and team rubicon c.e.o. good morning to both of you. mary, as you told me, this is an expansion of the partnership. what prompted it? >> good morning, brian. this is a really exciting expansion. so we've had a relationship with team rubicon because ford always shows up in a time of crisis. they're a veteran led organization who is first to show up to disasters. and what we thought about is how can we bring the power of our enterprise and the vehicles that we actually make to the work that they do? so what we are doing is expanding our relationship with
5:52 am
them to include 17 new vehicles. most of them have power on board which is going to be a game changer as they show up to these sites. many of the times where there's no power. >> brian: wow. what does this do for your organization? >> yeah, you know, the trucks and the philanthropy and the donations that the ford fund has provided and ford as well allows us to serve more people and allows us uniquely to be able to equip our gray shirts and volunteers in the field in innovative ways. imagine, you know, a community like those impacted by hurricane ian being able to put them back on the grid by providing energy that provides things like refrigeration or charging of tools or communications. those are all the things that these unique trucks allow us to do to serve more people in the field. >> brian: you've had a busy 2023 already, and you're getting ready for what could be another hurricane. hurricane bret. >> yeah, it's been an absolutely crazy year with regards to
5:53 am
operations. we've already conducted 74 operations across the country. and with tropical storm bret, you know, forecasted to become a hurricane, we're putting all of that practice and the people into place and my hope is the trucks, you know, that are being delivered will be on their way down to these disaster areas as soon as possible. >> brian: so mary, tell me about the ford 150. a lot of people didn't know how much power that has. literally, you can plug a house into it. >> you can. you can show up at a work site and plug a house. you can actually power an entire work site which we're really excited about. you know, these products are made by great people at ford. and one of the things that art talked about is the importance of people. and i just want to talk about the volunteering for a minute because ford has a huge employee base who is eager to volunteer. and what's great about this partnership is our opportunity to send ford volunteers into the fields with the gray shirts that art talked about to really make a difference in people's lives. >> brian: you're not just giving vehicles. you're going out there. >> we're going out there. i've actually been out there
5:54 am
personally myself helping in detroit, helping with homes that were actually impacted by floods two years ago. the other thing that i love about what team rubicon does, they really go into communities where they're really needed. these are folks that don't have insurance and need folks to come in and help them out. that's really the partnership we are creating. >> brian: so many of the military men and women love the crisis. they love to be there and when they leave the battlefield, the action stops. what is it like seeing them come together like this? even though it's all different branches. >> yeah, you know, the reality is people are drawn to community, identity and a purpose. and especially for the people that have worn the uniform of the country, this disaster scenario, these ideas of having to make decisions in these ambiguous situations of leading people and doing things safely really calls to the things that they learned and were trained to do. and it's essentially repurposing this incredible gift that they've given to the country, and now continue to give in
5:55 am
these disaster response scenarios. >> brian: you got the lightning, too, the ford f-150 lightning which is electric. am i right? >> it is. it's all electric and so that will be a game changer. other thing that's amazing about these vehicles is the telemattics on the vehicles. even though there's a lot, as you said, military precision around how team rubicon deploys it will be a game changer for them to have the telematics so they can track the work they do and track where the vehicles are. which i think is going to be very important as they go out and do the job they do so well. >> brian: awesome. ford always has a strong charitable arm and doing it again. mary and art, thanks so much. >> thank you! >> thanks for having us. >> brian: all right. you got it. meanwhile more "fox & friends" in a moment. don't move. from prom dresses to workouts
