releasing the 2017 whatsapp message reading, quote: 10 million per annum budget to use -- to further the interest of the joint venture. bidens are the best i know at doing exactly what the chairman wants from this partnership. >> brian: republicans sharing receipt that appears to show that the company depositing $100,000 into hunter's shell companies, the very next day. that message came out of testimony from an irs whistleblower who claims there was political interference in the federal investigation into hunter biden. and he says the big guy was off limits. >> this was any other person, they likely would have already served their sentence. there were certain investigative steps we weren't allowed to take that could have led us to pine. and you wanted to take them? >> we needed to take them. and you weren't allowed to take them. >> that is correct. >> steve: oh, man. we are also learning the white house is apparently omitting

hunter biden from his visitor log despite him being photographed attending high profile events repeatedly over the last two years. white house tells fox news digital it does not release the logs of personal guests. then, again, you also ainsley and brian, good morning to you. >> ainsley: good morning. >> steve: you also got to wonder is always there. does hunter biden live at the white house? it kind of looks like he lives there. >> ainsley: people are wondering. there were r. rumors he was living there. then we saw him recently at camp david with his dad. then there were rumors that he was living in california. some benefactor was putting him up over there and paying his bills. britain britain drill down on what we now know. this is getting bigger by the day. now you know behind closed doors why people would come out of these meetings and heads yesterday to explode by james comer. wasn't talking about the intelligence before the plea deal was announced on hunter biden. when you see this whatsapp message, it actually ties together the be exact

accusations in such a way you have to wonder if anyone is going to challenge the authenticity, which no one does. i mean, look he talks about the deal that's going to be done. the biden influence that takes place. the family that takes place. the money that enters into their accounts that's why the shapley is so fascinating. you are not talking about any investigation other than you just look at the irs. if you are an irs investigator to find out why someone is not paying taxes or filing and find out how much they owe, why wouldn't you want access to their overseas business dealings to find out where the money is. where it came from. and then to at least do the math to find out how much it owes. this money goes into shell companies from the shell companies, they pay hunter biden. from the hunter biden gets that money, where does that money go? and why does he feel impervious to pay taxes and how much went to joe? all this stuff is being tied together. >> steve: well, so, here's -- what's curious about this. and the republicans released

this at g.o.p. oversight their twitter account. that's what this is all is coming from. that's what they have done is gone through some of these financial records. keep in mind, at the time that this stuff is being alleged, joe biden was no lodger the vice president of the united states. and so what this -- what this whatsapp thing says we need $10 million more for the joint venture and hunter was upset that apparently they were only going to give him $5 million. you know i can make $5 million in a law firm in the united states. it is unclear what the joint venture is or what and if it was just for biden corruption, then why did they have other entities like they had -- they mention hudson and some other partners as well. if it was just to influence a former vice president, which i don't know if that's illegal, why exactly were there so many other moving parts? and what the republicans don't do here, yet, is they don't say

if any laws were broken and if anything was illegal. >> ainsley: what they're saying oversight agrees on this, as more facts come to light, it becomes even more evident the bidens put china and their interest first and american last. so we saw the first whatsapp message last week. and it talked about dad sitting here beside me. he threatened the chinese businessman. >> steve: i want the money. >> ainsley: i want the deal done tonight. i need this money. and the next one talks about investing $10 million a year. this guy named kevin, his name is gong win dug and he is a chinese business. i need to you invest $10 million a year in our company. we are the best meaning the bidens are the best at doing what the chairman wants. the chairman tells us what to do and we say yes we are going to do it? the chairman is a chinese billionaire and tied to a ccp intelligence gathering agency. is he missing now. taken into custody in february of 2018 #, a year after this

whatsapp date by the chinese authorities. >> brian: so interesting because remember in the laptop, hunter panicking saying, you know, basically all my friends are indicted and the guy i'm dealing with in china has disappeared. what's going on here and then you have them talking to his daughter. i have never put you in -- do to you what pops does to me and that driver of all funds for this family. keep in mind, too at the very least. if you are a voter in 2016. would you like to know if the candidate for president was dealing with china, our number one economic and military foe, whose main objective is to get inside our intelligence apparatus and with the belt and road program undo our influence on every continent. would that be important for you? >> steve: in 2016 the candidate was hillary clinton. >> brian: excuse me, 2020, my fault. the "new york times" writes up this story. and it's amazing how judicious they are, not to jump to

conclusions here they would probably have don jr. and eric in jail. to their credit, at least it's in there. in mid 202 '. mr. weiss reached out to the top federal prosecutor in washington. matthew graves to ask his office to pursue charges and was rebuffed. david weiss has to answer to this eventually. according to mr. shapley, that's the irs whistleblower, a similar request to prosecutors in the central district of california, which also includes los angeles, was also rejected. why those two places important? because this is where the unsavory activity is alleged to have taken place. mr. shapley testified a second former irs official who has not been identified, told house republicans the same story. that episode was confirmed independently to the "new york times" by a person with knowledge of the situation. >> steve: so mr. shapley, what he -- he was actually on cbs last night. and we just ran a little clip of

him. he is a republican. but he says, look, i have never engaged in politics. i have no political motive. is he only speaking out because hunter got special treatment. and he -- there he is right there. >> he said that felonies could have been charged, in particular. we know that hunter paid back taxes on what was owed. but, as it turns out, mr. shapley said that hunter wrote off things as business expenses that we would go to prison for. essentially. hunter wrote off money that he paid for hookers. he wrote off hookers. he wrote off sex club memberships. he wrote off travel for prostitutes, hotel rooms for drug dealers and no-show employees. and mr. shapley also said any efforts to look into money involving the dad or the big guy, and keep in mind we have heard joe biden referred to as the big guy for a while, mr. shapley said he was blocked by a senior prosecutor working for mr. weiss. who is the u.s. attorney for delaware. and this is where it gets

complicated. because you have got the just attorney for delaware saying to mr. shapley, i can't -- you know, i can't investigate the dad, and we can't -- i can't charge -- i'm not the decider on the charges. the u.s. attorney general, merrick garland, he says i'm not the guy. it's that guy. so, essentially, what they are saying is there has got to be somebody else or somebody is lying. and mr. shapley said that a senior prosecutor working for the u.s. attorney in delaware said hey, shapley, stop right there. don't look into joe biden. that's the complicated part. and that looks dirty. >> ainsley: he says the irs is supposed to treat everyone fairly and equally. that wasn't happening. they were telling him who not to touch and investigate. his attorney, his name is driven left. is he going to be on our show at 7:340. can. >> brian: shapley was up for a race he didn't believe he got it and promotion because he inquired and pushed back about

what was going on inside. one thing is kind of interesting is that in march, senator grassley seems to have known this by the series of questions that he asked to david weiss, were you ever stopped from bringing there case forward, were you ever -- was anyone ever brought up to you, limitations to your investigation? almost as if to get him on the record because he knew this thing was bubbling up. grassley is really tough to get -- go at him on his integrity. >> steve: just the fact that the "new york times" is now addressing these allegations from a whistleblower, and cbs is doing the story as well, it almost looks like they are -- they are starting to put mainstream media on joe biden go. joe, maybe this next time you should sit ot. out. >> ainsley: don't you remember the phrase our grandmothers always said. eventually it comes out in the wash. eventually it tall comes to light. >> brian: lunden roberts, the former, i guess, girlfriend of hunter biden who had his child

navy. they just had a deal cut. no details until today. now instead of paying $20,000 a month it's 5,000 and she doesn't get the biden name. this way joe, i guess, can never acknowledge her. unbelievable. >> ainsley: she has the biden d.n.a., right? >> brian: i think so. maybe not to the family. >> ainsley: it's almost 12 minutes after the top of the hour. coming up, daniel penny is back in court today as he is arraigned in the subway chokehold death of jordan kneely, what can we expect? >> brian: hundreds of parents in anding say in their kids' education. >> we demand. >> we will raise our children. >> we will raise our children. >> brian: amazing, how christian, muslim, and jewish parents are uniting to keep sexuality and gender out of their children's classrooms. ♪ ♪

allegedly threatened subway passengers. >> steve: next guest says this is absolute miscarriage of justice. dr. darrin porcher. doctor, good morning to you. >> thanks for having me. >> steve: it's heart breaking to a lot of people because they look at what daniel penny did as being heroic. now is he going to be charged with second degree murder? >> absolutely. this is atrocity to say the least. this is a mayor narrative being driven by the manhattan district attorney. this was clearly a person who was looking to assist people that had their safety put -- placed in danger. >> just picture if your kid subway car and you had the same individual accosting them. would you want people to just sit by idly as they could possibly be assaulted? no. i think what mr. penny did was something that deserves a hero's welcome and fortunate that we raised up to short of $3 million in his legal defense fund. >> ainsley: this sends a message to the criminals you can do this

and get away with it. can you harass people. and if they hurt you. they can be charged. sends message to innocent people. don't get involved. turn a cheek. do not get involved in this or you could go to jail. >> city of new york focused on wrong trajectory. focused on pizza owners, migrants coming into the city affording them shelter. not looking through the lends of public safety. this was a person, mr. penny, that looked through the lens of public safety it wasn't just him but there were other riders in that subway car that assisted to restrain this individual and unfortunately being persecuted. >> >> brian: what's going to be new today. we already know is he in front of a grand jury and was indicted. what are we going to find out new today? is this just ceremonial? >> brian, this is merely ceremonial think was the official introduction of the charges. everything is now being unsealed. >> brian: will he be surprised by anything that he hears? >> i don't think there is much that going to be surprising; however, what will come out is the interviews of the other

individuals that were on that subway car that would now be introduce flood penny so can he be more so be apprized of what is coming moving forward in the criminal process. >> steve: ultimately what is going to be contained in the indictment is some experts from the grand jury and the witnesses that the prosecutor brought in who will make it seem like daniel penny was out to kill the guy, whereas there were other people who essentially would say, look, he was here. he was going to save us. >> it's going to be a collaboration on amalgamation of a series of interviews and what the district attorney made an assessment on that's going to be presented to mr. penny. but, overall, i think mr. penny is in a good place because we, as the majority of the citizens of new york, stand behind his actions, and this is a miscarriage of justice. is he being persecuted in the court of public opinion, being driven by the manhattan district attorney. >> brian: because ever the race, because everyone indicate tud was race-related because penny's white and jordan neely is black.

and there were riots that happened after stopping subway cars. that's what really steamed have got alvin bragg incited. >> that's the component. also, mr. penny being a former marine and the perception is he had a certain level of training. which he could have -- which they believed he went overboard, which is absolutely not the case. this was a person that was doing what was right, to protect us as innocent citizens. >> steve: dardarrin porcher, thk you very much for joining us. >> thank you for having me as a guest. >> ainsley: carley is right behind you with headlines. >> carley: awful news to get to here, guys. nascar star jimmie johnson father and nephew dead in what authorities believe to be a double murder suicide. johnson's emotional is likely behind the killings. their bodies were discovered by officers responding to a report of a disturbance at the family's home on monday night. johnson's race team says his car will be pulled from this

english arts program. the parents say we don't want our kids reading some of this stuff, they ought to be able to opt out. the school board said no, you have got to do it. >> ainsley: school board insisting that the kids have to engage with these materials. >> brian: bringing all together. >> ainsley: you always hear right wing crazy conservatives or christians. >> brian: they are afraid to criticize muslims. what is amazing this is how the opt out movement has unified the muslim and jewish community of all people of all faith. here is one of the protesters. >> introducing sexual behavior and press c preference raises le concern for us parents. where is respect or does inclusion and respect only apply for a specific group. >> this is a issue of faith. our faith is not partisan. our people are not backwards. >> what's amazing in this is how this opt out movement has

unified the christian community. give it up for the christian community. [cheers] unified the muslim community. [cheers] how it's unified the jewish community, all people of faith. [cheers] >> ainsley: one protester set the parents in general in montgomery county are starting to realize that oh, this district doesn't quhar they think. they think the kids belong to them. >> steve: you see the many people outside not all of them got to go inside and have their voices heard because apparent liver the school board said, you know what? we're going to have to limit the number of people in because of safety concerns. so the only people they let in the access was limited to scheduled speakers. penal who had lined up ahead of time. invited attend years and other guests to the capacity of the room. so there were dozens of people as you can see out there with the signs and the flags. they wanted to talk about their

kids. school board wouldn't let them in. >> ainsley: parents said the test scores are catastrophically bad in this district. they are focused on the wrong thing. >> brian: just about every district. we reached out for a statement and didn't hear it back. criminals, would you check the voice mail in the break? >> chris: right away. >> steve: we have voice mail? >> brian: absolutely. >> steve: coming up on wednesday fox weather alert. strong storms plowing through the plain states. winds, hail and possible tornadoes. remember that? that's a flashback. >> brian: new york breast bracing for unhealthy air levels again. canadian wildfires janice dean is here with a report. ainsley: here's a story of how one administration took a turn for the worse facing impeachment threats from all angles. we do a deep dive on the biden bunch, next. >> brian: she stops singing at the end. >> ainsley: look at each other ♪ they were four men living all together, yet, they were all alone ♪ until the one day when the

steve all right. let's talk a little bit about the maps and a fox weather alert right now. severe storms are expected to bring more severe weather, could include large hail, high winds up to 85 miles per hour for the great plain states as you can see right there look at the map. parts of kansas, oklahoma, south dakota and texas are already under severe storm watching meanwhile the ceo of united airlines based in newark, new jersey says the faa is partly to blame thousands of flights canceled since the weekend. the faa did not properly prepare for the storm. they didn't have enough people working. he had hello. new york city is bracing for another round of smoke from the canadian wildfires. chicago and detroit under thick smog with poor air quality expected to linger in the northern states next couple of days. janice dean is here with our fox

weather forecast. i hear, the smoke is going to be in new york state today and new york city tomorrow. >> janice: correct. it won't be as bad as a couple of weeks ago where we had this ominous glow across new york city. and it just looked like mars in some cases. but we will feel and smell the smoke, absolutely. for parts of the midwest today, crossing over the great lakes and into the northeast tomorrow. let's take a look at the maps and i will show you what is going on. new york city right now 67 but mostly cloudy skies. i think some of that smoke is actually going to get into the air a little earlier. there is the smoke tracker. it's hard to really track where this smoke goes and how potent it's going to be. i just want to, you know, say that because i think the smoke across the upper midwest and the great lakes is a little bit worse than we were anticipating. so a lot of these big cities experiencing the smoke, moving in towards the northeast and we'll be tracking that, of course, fox weather.com has all the latest details. if you have respiratory

concerns. keep your elderly kids inside. pregnant. next couple of days keep inside. severe threat as well and air quality very unhealthy for some of these areas back to you. >> good days to stay inside and watch our channel. just saying. >> janice: got it. thank you very much. 25 minutes before the top of the hour. carley has got some news. we start in idaho. >> we certainly do. prosecutors reveal they're seeking the death penalty against bryan kohberger. the man accused of stabbing four university of idaho students to death in november. kohberger appeared in court yesterday in a suit and tie. his defense team asking for the release of grand jury evidence including the d.n.a. used to make the charge. the presiding judge says he will make a decision use. youtube removing a second podcast fee it you aring robert f. kennedy jr. where he discuss big tech with a former "new york post" reporter. >> they are controlling our

communications with each other, and they are controlling our world view. and they are controlling narratives, which means they can craft the political narratives and this is very, very dangerous. >> carley: youtube is reportedly claiming the episode violates its terms of service. kennedy jr. reacting on twitter saying people made a big deal about russia supposedly manipulating internet information to influence a presidential election. shouldn't would he be worried when giant tech corporations do the same? the new york city artist and activist who lobbed slices of pizza at city hall says he will meet with mayor eric adams after his unique protest went viral. >> i agreed to it. i thought about it. you know, i'm not happy with his policies. again, if if i'm an activist and try change policy for the people of this city i will sit down with him if it helps. i'm reluctant to bring you a vegan pizza. i do no such thing. it's pizza. if you ask me to bring pine apple i will be throwing

pineapples at city hall. >> held a pizza party city's ban on wood and coal fired pizza ovens. part of new york city plan to fight climate change. those are your headlines, brian, downstairs to you. >> brian: right, supposed to the come up with $20,000 with some unfunded mandate. more on the break. now, this they may seem like one happy great lakes i'm talking about the people over my shoulder, here is the story, how three top officials took a turn for the worst and became the subject of republican impeachment talks. take a look at the biden bunch and how they got themselves in trouble by being disingenuous at best. mayorkas may be looking at impeachment. congressman green is going to be leading an investigation over the next 11 to 12 weeks to see what broke the border. we know what it did. bad policies and the inability or the decision not to put the wall up already paid for by you and by me. the fact is we have had 4 million people here illegally. they have been jammed into

cities where there is absolutely no room. there is no money to fund them. they have been flown into small airports without anyone knowing. bursted to cities and sponsors without anyone saying. and guess who is behind it? mayorkas. could it lead to his impeachment? the fact that he could be lying to congress when he says statements like the border was secure. we'll tell that to central and south america. tell that to the people of haiti who were hanging out in brazil until they realized this was the perfect time to come. now let's take a look the secretary of state antony blinken and talk about when he was deputy secretary of state on when president biden was vice president biden. he lied about any type of action with hunter biden. in fact, look at some of the exchanges on emails. looks like he was closer to hunter than he was with joe. why would hunter biden be reaching out and asking for a key meetings with the assistant secretary of state, he had a lot of power and influence. he was doing international business deals. we're still trying to get ahold

of. here was some of the interaction between the two. that an antony blinken said never took place. hey, antony blinken from hunter biden, his real name is robert. i'm just about to land in tokyo in route back from d.c. from burma. come to my office, let's find a good time. i look forward to seeing you. why was he needle to talk to antony blinken did he just miss him after a long overseas trip? brings you to the attorney general. he said i have nothing to do with the hunter biden investigation. we have a whistleblower that came out and says that david weiss, in charge of the investigation, told him he was not in charge of the investigation. merrick garland came out and said i have nothing to do with the plea deal that was made. and then we talk about the plea deal that was made and we have david weiss say i would like to bring this to d.c. to charge hunter biden. they said no. i like to bring it to los angeles because indiscretions were in l.a. they said no. hey, mr. garland, either you are in charge or david weiss is in

charge. according to two whistleblowers. david weiss was not in charge. were you? and, if you're not telling the truth when you said in thursday's press conference. here is what was going to happen. here was kevin mccarthy telling us this on the couch yesterday. >> because of the allegation from the irs, because of the whistleblowers, and the doj, garland, what he is saying and what david weiss are saying privately are two different things. >> steve: right. >> if it comes true what the irs whistleblower is saying, we're going to start impeachment inquiries on the attorney general. >> brian: does. so dealings with the biden family was involved in do they influence policy and was he trading on the biden name. what else key possibly be trading on? that's a quick look at the biden bunch who might be in a whole lot of trouble. meanwhile, straight ahead. chip off the old block. watch, as children are taught to throw toy bricks at pictures of he republicans. that's classy, isn't it? but, first, polling says that donald trump, yep, and ron

desantis two frontrunners to get the g.o.p. nomination. i ask you, is the dark horse from the state of virginia? might it be the businessman, international businessman turned governor who happens to be very tall and good at basketball. meanwhile, donald trump is nothing if he is not dominant so far. that story is next. ♪ ♪ ♪ stay off the freeways! only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ sometimes, the lows of bipolar depression

talking about governor glenn youngkin it. started with turning virginia red for the first time in over a decade win the governorship and a year prior, joe biden won the state by 10 percentage points. and how about favorability? a majority of virginians approve of their governor in the latest polling, also topping joe biden by nearly 10 points in the commonwealth. but time is not on his side because virginia doesn't allow

consecutive terms for a governor. so with his term set to expire in less than 10 years he needs something to do is glenn youngkin the dark horse of 2024? our next guest thinks he could be. democratic strategist and pollster doug schoen joins us now. doug, good morning to you. >> thanks so much, steve, for having me. >> steve: okay, so ron desantis and donald trump are getting all the headlines, what is it about this guy you are thinking he could be the guy that emerges between the fight and those two. >> well, about 65, 70% of republicans want an alternative to donald trump and desantis. they want credible alternatives. as you point out correctly steve, glenn youngkin has proven in a purple state he can win state popular, emphasize family rights in school, the whole need for parental responsibility, and

a moderate to conservative version of republican that is inclusive and is not polarizing. >> steve: sure, to your point about polarizing. i know, you know, a lot of republicans have been talking a lot about the culture wars. ron desantis has had some high profile fights with things with disney and stuff like that whereas you write in your op-ed in the hill, you say that governor youngkin for the most part has been fighting things directly impacting parents and voters in the commonwealth. >> that's exactly right. voters want to focus on their quality of life. their kids' education, the economy, crime, they don't really sees a governor desantis has said that the election is a war on woke and donald trump, obviously, has so many extraneous issues that he is dealing with.

it's hard for him to focus entirely on the problems of america. that's why voters are interested in fresh faces like glenn youngkin. >> steve: let's see swhaps. it sounded like he was going to get in a couple weeks ago his staff said no, not going to do it. plenty of time, plenty of run way ahead of him, right? >> that is absolutely right. we have a few months, three, four, five months for him to make a decision. is he a wealthy guy. he has got contacts all over america. will. >> steve: he has some sweater vests ready to wear. can he wear them in every state. >> absolutely. >> steve: joe biden is going to hop in air force one and fly out to chicago later today and going to be talking about how great the bidenomics economy is going. we have been using that term biden nbiden oomics for over a .

i don't think that's a winning issue for him, is it. >> no, it isn't. he is getting 32% positive rating, steve, on the economy. 68% negative. the cost of living, inflation, gas prices, are all crippling people, and 68 percent of americans based on the committee country headed on the wrong track the for a lot of people and his numbers stink. can he still win? >> he can still win if somebody like descrumpt nominee polls are tied and trump's numbers general election, particularly with independent are very negative. >> steve: all right. let's see what happens. doug, thank you very much for joining us on this wednesday. >> steve, thanks for having me. >> steve: you betcha. nine minutes before the top of the hour and carley joins us with news.

>> ainsley: forget about quiet quitting. gen z turning it live capturing the real life moment that they actually quit their jobs for their social media live streams. >> i do have a bit of news to share with you. i have decided to pursue an opportunity. this is like the hardest resignation i have ever given in my career. >> i got job offer and i want to take it? >> good for you. i feel really bad. >> i don't know how to say it. >> i know. i knew it was coming when you said that. >> it's been like so hard to figure out what to do but i think, yeah, i think -- i think i need to do it. >> ainsley: outkick personality charly arnolt is here to react. >> i will not be quitting my job during the segment. >> ainsley: please do not do that live here. we are seeing #quit my job 381 million people with #quit talk. more than 50 million views and

#i quit my job 91 million. this is a big thing. >> it's a whole social media phenomenon. it really stemmed from the pandemic when a lot of people started chronicling their emotions and what they were going through on places like tiktok and taken that over to situations like quitting their jobs which usually is something you reserve for more private moments. but they are really just putting their emotions out there and in some cases it's kind of nice to see in the more respectful manner but there is a few others that i have noticed and i don't know if that's good for your future and probably your current boss that you informed is not too happy. >> ainsley: some are hitting send as resignation letters some zooming with their bosses. i saw some that were funny. one guy making a video out on the river of how now he has quit his job and getting drunk. some of them are funny. some of them are emotional. this is what the younger generation is doing now. don't you love that some of the girls are in their hoodies quitting their jobs? >> that's the thing.

a lot of these positions are remote positions they are not used to having that one-on-one communication. a lot of communication skills have been lost with this younger generation. it is just hard too wrap my head around because i'm so cognizant of my future. every move that you make effects the next one. so i imagine in a lot of these situations where you have employees who are going and putting their employers on blasts and not even notifying them that this is something that they are broadcasting probably not setting themselves up too well for the future. >> ainsley: i remember when i got another job and had to quit my first job. i was so nervous to tell my boss because we had such a great relationship. he was so supportive. i can't imagine putting that live, or recording that or post it. why the trending for the younger generation? >> it's all about they want to express who they are. this is about truly journaling their emotions and they share everything else on social media. i mean from what they are eating to what he are doing. this is just one more step in that process.

but, sometimes you have to realize that some things are not meant for social media. but, you know, i think it just really depends how you handle it. >> ainsley: they put it all out there. just like watching reality tv. my advi advice for the next generation don't quit your job until you have another job. >> i second that. >> ainsley: it's 7:00. the second hour of "fox & friends" starts right now. >> that's the thing with stepping in as a good samaritan to try to help them from danger. >> former marine daniel penny arraigned on second degree manslaughter today. >> on the choking death of jordan neely. he was yelling in their faces. i couldn't just sit still. >> i have never spoken with my son about his overseas business dealings. >> text message demanding $10 million payout. >> best at appeasing their partners. >>
