against president biden's student loan bailout plan on friday but its allies are vowing that the fight is not over. >> rachel: that's right. defiant democrats are also face something tough questions. after the supreme court quoted nancy pelosi's own words in their decision. >> joey: our very own martin meredith is live at the white house and he's got more on this story. martin. >> reporter: joey, rachel and steve good morning to all three of you. president biden said he's disappointed in last week's supreme court ruling which nullified his efforts to cancel some student loan debt but the administration says it's working on a plan b. >> it's really important, first of all, borrowers hear loud and clearly we're not stopping the fight that we recognize how important this is. within hours of the supreme court decision, which we totally disagree with, i think is wrong, we announced that we are moving forward with another pathway to debt relief. >> reporter: that other pathway includes executing provisions

under the higher education act which allows the government to wave or release loans under certain circumstances but it takes time they even require public hearings for this kind of rule making which means it could be a while before a final plan is a don'ted. that has democrats upset urging more action just as americans begin repaying their student loans. >> i would like to see interest payments suspended during this time, especially during that 12-month ramp-up period. i highly urge the administration to consider suspending those interest payments. >> reporter: republicans argue the president tried to work around dongs create a bail out for only a subsection of americans. they also point to former speaker nancy pelosi's own words as proof that this was never going to hold up. >> the argument that the court's making is that the heroes act does not give the president the authority to rewrite student loans. take a look at what nancy pelosi had to say about that just two years ago. >> people think that the president of the united states has the power for debt

forgiveness. he does not. he can postpone. he can delay. but he does not have that power. that has to be an act of congress. >> reporter: meantime some new polling shows how america feels about last week's decision that ends affirmative action. 52% saying they agree 32% disagreeing, that came out over the weekend. the president said he disagreed with the court on that decision as well. he also said last week that it was not a normal court. we don't expect him to weigh in though on the supreme court. he remains up at camp david. joey, rachel, and steve back to you guys. >> steve: all right mark. thank you >> mark talked about the abc poll that showed a majority of americans essentially back the supreme court's decision when it comes to affirmative action. also a plurality, 45%, approve of their decision on student debt. and here's the thing.

i mean, joe biden said clearly he was trying to do something to motivate his base and he said, i'm going to forgive -- i'm going to do everything i can, going to pull out all the stops, use the heroes act to forgive a bunch of debt, half a trillion dollars. the heroes act was passed so people who served our military proudly or 9/11, the first responders, so that they could essentially have their debt forgiven. it wasn't across the board. so, you know what? a majority of of the justices on the supreme court agreed with nancy pelosi when she said that the president does not have the power to do that. if you want to do it, you've got to do it in congress. >> joey: and that's what's so seemingly nefarious about it. they do this, make this promise almost in the sense that they know they can't fulfill it and it's almost a win win for them. >> steve: look good, look, we're trying. >> joey: they can look good in the meantime but if the supreme court and republicans attack it or stop them from doing it, now they have a campaign angle.

so it's like they win either way and only americans lose. >> rachel: yeah, you know, when these decisions came out last week, i saw a tweet from our good friend will cain who said just wait. look for coordinated attacks on the supreme court. and that's what we've been getting. listen to this. >> this far-right extremist inbalanced supreme court which seems to make history for all the wrong reasons. if they were a caucus in congress, they would be the bootstraper forced birth don't say gay caucus. >> i support expanding the supreme court because we have a radical extreme super majority on the supreme court that is out of touch with the american public. >> i believe frankly that we really need to be having conversations about judicial review as a check on the courts as well. there also must be impeachment on the table. we have a broad level of tools to deal with misconduct,

overreach and abuse of power. >> steve: so she's suggesting they impeach the supreme court because they ruled in a fashion that she does not approve of. joey, you know what? i think you touched on what is central to what's going on. on friday, there was absolute outrage. a lot of people on the president's side are outraged what the supreme court did with affirmative action and also the computer designer and things like that. so what are they going to do? joe biden, going forward's going to say, look, i know you don't like what the supreme court did regarding affirmative action, abortion, things like that. i need four more years to pack the court with some progressives as the conservatives retire. >> rachel: and don't think they can't do it. i say this because when alexandria ocasio-cortez who's definitely on the more radical wing of the party but they're the most powerful wing of the party. >> joey: they're the loudest.

>> rachel: they're the loudest and have a lot of cultural influence. when she brought out the green new deal, nancy pelosi didn't back it, nobody backed it. look at the bills that passed this past year. the inflation reduction act, which was a green new deal. the infrastructure transportation bill, that was basically the green new deal. so they have been gaining support for this. they know how to culturally move the needle and introduce ideas that maybe aren't popular with the people right now but they use all the tools that they have and eventually get what they want. don't scoff it. remember it wasn't too long ago that they told us we were being hyperbolic about them wanting to ban gas stoves now here we are where we see in many states basically you can't get a gas line in a new home being built, they find ways to do their things. >> joey: at the end of the day separate the politics from the policy and folks like aoc make it really hard to do that.

are you trying to get reelected, trying to raise money or trying to make people's lives easier. i don't think president biden ever thought the student loan forgiveness was going to go through so that becomes pretty unseemly to convince people it may just to garner support and now have an outrage to campaign on. but what's really funny about all of this is we just showed a montage that ended with aoc calling for the impeachment of supreme court justices because they're loosely tying what they consider to be bad behavior to the supreme court but you know someone like hunter biden can have bad behavior all over him and maybe even on his dad and they don't want to believe in any of this, even with whistleblowers. this is ro khanna talking about this hunter biden investigation. >> we had president trump appoint a u.s. attorney in delaware, and president biden had the ability to fire that u.s. attorney if he wanted. president biden didn't fire the u.s. attorney. he had his past opponent's

appointee have total power over making a decision on. >> kayleigh: but, sir what the whistleblower is saying is weiss, appointed by trump, said that he was not the deciding official. doesn't that directly contradict what the attorney general has said? >> but weiss is not saying that. isn't the source weiss? i mean, if weiss was saying that, i would have a concern. if weiss was out there saying, i didn't have total authority, there was interference, but weiss, weiss is the key person and he's not saying that. >> steve: and so i believe what the congressman is talking about, on friday, mr. weiss, who's the u.s. attorney for the district of delaware where they've been doing this five-year investigation, appointed by donald trump. he sent a two-page letter to jim jordan and members of the republicans up on capitol hill and essentially what said, it was the most detailed explanation of the five-year probe of hunter biden. he denies being blocked for more serious charges in dc and

california. he said, look, if i wanted to do it i could do it. ultimately, though, at the end he said, because this is an open investigation, while i would love to answer questions from the congress, i can't because it's still going on. so, yeah, yeah, yeah. nobody, you know, nobody big footed me, i could have done whatever i wanted to, he says now. but congress wants answers and they're not going to get them anytime soon. >> rachel: i think it's really important, democrats keep using this talking point. trump-appointed u.s. attorney. let's be clear. u.s. attorney in that district has to have senator approval. and so -- and it's two democrat senators. you get what i'm saying. >> joey: yeah. >> rachel: so, yeah, that was trump-appointed but there's no choice. you have to have a pretty moderate if not liberal u.s. attorney in order for trump to approve it. because if trump put somebody he wanted forward, the senators

would have blocked it. so that's a really weird talking point they keep hanging on to to make it sound like trump's people are even agreeing with them. that's not true. this case has been dragged for five years, much of it so that statutes of limitations would be run out as well. this is complete interference by the deep state, by the fbi, by the doj, covering up at the highest levels weaponizing government to protect this family and their criminal enterprise, which is now becoming more and more apparent to anybody who wants to see it. >> joey: and congress has an investigative role. i know democrats would like to ignore that with their 12-month amnesia from a four-year investigative tirade they had with president trump. but, you know, the press is asking questions. i mean, that was a clip from abc we just saw and the wall street journal editorial board is no exception. they're calling on david weiss, they're saying house republicans late last week asked delaware,

u.s. attorney david weiss, to answer questions about his hunter biden investigation. and the lift of queries is growing. such as, did the prosecutor bother to go beyond hunter biden's tax issues to look into wider allegations of corruption, the recent testimony from two, two irs whistleblowers suggests, answer is no. perhaps mr. weiss has an explanation for all of this. though in a friday letter to house republicans, he said he couldn't provide specific law enforcement information about the hunter biden case. his refusal to contradict the whistleblowers enhances their credibility. basically what they're saying is no answer is an answer. >> steve: ultimately, though, because we're not going to hear from mr. weiss for a while obviously. >> joey: yeah. >> steve: the next thing regarding the hunter biden case is there's a judge, federal district judge in delaware. on july 26th, she will decide whether or not to approve the hunter biden deal tsweetheart

deal. she can look at it. she also was appointed by donald trump. she can look at it and decide, yes, it's a good deal or no, it's a bad deal or let's bring in some more people and talk about whether this thing is above board. >> joey: if for some reason she does say no that's probably the worst indictment of this entire process to this point. >> steve: absolutely. >> joey: can you expect that judge to be objective and follow the law. >> rachel: former director of national intelligence john ratcliffe was on fox yesterday and he says the problem is that ultimately there's a culture problem at the doj. listen. >> the two easiest case to prosecute in washington, dc are the gun and tax crimes against hunter biden, which have resulted in no felony recommendations. it underscores the disparity that we're seeing and it's really why, you know, i think the next president is really going to have to do more than just replace the attorney general and the fbi director but really turn these entities inside out and address the

cultural problem that has existed ever since eric holder said that he was barack obama's wing man and began to embed partisan throughout the fbi and the department of justice. to identify this as a small problem is a mistake. it's a cultural problem, not a 1-off issue. we're seeing it over and over again where there's a disparity of treatment within the department of justice. >> rachel: yeah. i have a podcast with my husband, from the kitchen table, where we discuss the number one problem facing the country that needs to be addressed in the next -- you know, whoever wins the next election and it is the deep state. that we cannot continue as a country and say we're a democracy when there is no equal justice. when we see this kind of disparity of justice, where hunter biden gets off and donald trump is now facing life in prison potentially. >> steve: that's what you talk about at the kitchen table, the deep state? >> rachel: oh, yeah, oh, yeah. >> steve: oh, my goodness. >> rachel: welcome to our -- do you not know me.

we also discuss your recipes from your book. you know that. >> steve: you have recipes in our cookbook. >> rachel: we discuss a lot of things. >> steve: man, oh, man. i want to go drop by your house and just watch. >> rachel: you know what my motto is? if you're not talking to your kids about socialism somebody is so where else than to talk around the kitchen table. >> steve: we talk more to our kids about social media than socialism. >> rachel: that's where a lot of the socialism's coming from steve. >> joey: there you go. >> steve: she is on social media because i just looked at her instagram post with her adorable son. >> rachel: oh, brock, baby brock. >> i hope he's okay when he's older with all the pictures i'm posing. he's so cute i can't resist. >> rachel: i would like to see a new fox news alert with new brock pictures every time he comes out. >> i will send them to you directly. in the meantime news to get to starting with this. it has been a violent holiday weekend across the country, chicago reporting three people are dead and more than 30 shot.

caused the crash. and denver area restaurant owned by the creators of south park is saying no to tipping ahead of their grand reopening. they say they're instead paying their workers 30 bucks an hour and instructing diners to withhold grasityity. famous restauranteur pioneered the no tipping pay structure several years ago in new york he has abandoned the plan saying it was not sustainable in the current hospitality climate. so they're doing what they do in europe you don't have to tip they pay them a lot of money. >> steve: can't beat that, keeping it simple. >> joey: they're doing a lot of different things there. >> steve: carley thank you very much. best to brock >> still ahead burgers brought worst and beer, the favorite for cookouts 2023, did your favorites make the list, stick stick around to find out. >> rachel: our next guest says the supreme court's decision to

♪ >> rachel: the supreme court's end to affirmative action in college admissions last week could have a major impact on the business of corporate wokeness according to our next guest. fox business correspondent charlie cas perino said a corporate lawyer told him it's only a matter of time before every large corporation will be compelled to scrub their human resources and dei policies after the high court's decision. charlie joins us now to explain.

well, it sounds like almost too good to be true but is it true that these decisions could actually impact dei in corporate america and esg? >> i'm not a judge, i'm not a lawyer. i'm just a journalist but about a month ago i wrote a column and reported on fox business that there was sort of a clearing call that went out to among corporate lawyers that represent boards and ceos that said, listen, if this supreme court case on affirmative action comes out pretty specifically and blatantly against affirmative action, it's precedent setting and we're going to have to like really look at our dei policy. now why is that? if you know anything about dei, every company has it to some extent. the way it's been practiced, particularly in the last five years, and i'm doing a book about this, just so you know, full disclosure, i have a book deal. >> rachel: great topic. >> reporter: working topics time to fail. but because dei practices have

devolved into something like quotas, and that's what we have at make 0 companies, quotas, i'm getting examples at major banks and big companies, it's not just the notion of diversity, which is a good notion, let's have a diverse work force, it's not just that it's like you will have a certain amount of black employees, white males may not get this promotion, we need that promotion for a white female or however you look at it. >> rachel: i imagine ceos you talk to just want the best work force not the most diverse. >> reporter: a lot of them are progressives so remember. >> rachel: exactly. these investment firms we're seeing, state street bank, all these -- black rock, these policies are being pushed from really high up and those people are very ideological. so will the supreme court decisions be able to impact the pressure coming from these progressives at these very powerful positions >> reporter: let's fast forward now from a month ago. yes, they got the decision that they thought they would get, a

pretty resounding no to race in any sort of context of promotion, in one case college admissions. if you go to a court, if you're a white male and let's say you get passed over because you're a white male, you sue, it's going to be very hard, i am told, for a federal judge or any judge to say, nah, you know, there's evidence, the supreme court case doesn't apply to you because the language is almost the same. it basically mirrors employment. on top of that, if it ever gets before the supreme court, you're toast if you're a black rock or you're a jp morgan or whoever. so that's what i'm hearing. is it going to happen tomorrow? no, these things take some time. but i think you're going to be seeing fewer of these policies going forward, probably fewer transgender male -- transgender males like in beer commercials going forward. i mean, that's what dei is essentially pushing on the

american public. >> rachel: esg. >> reporter: well, esg is a little different. we can get into these acro anymores all day but esg does have a g component in it, that's where dei comes in. >> rachel: time for companies to care about their shareholders and not so much about what hr department and dei and all this kind of stuff says. >> reporter: yes, but, listen, it's hard to put the genie back in the bottle, but the supreme court has just done so. >> rachel: great, great, great potential news and good luck on that book. i can't wait to read it. >> reporter: thank you. >> rachel: thank you charlie >> now we go to a fox weather alert. more than a hundred million americans are bracing for severe weather ahead of independence day as storms sweep the midwest and the east coast. adam klotz has the forecast. >> and in honor of america's birthday we're tracing our roots. find out which one of us is related to a founding father. next. probably not rachel campos-duffy. ♪

based on the intelligent assumption that these riots are not based on this person's death. >> no. i mean, as in 2005, it's a trigger, but as in riots we've had in the u.s., there is no reason if a, in this case, 17-year-old is shot dead by policeman while joyrideing in the early hours of the morning near a primary school, there is no reason to go and break the windows and steal handbags from lieu louis vuitton. and this has been the case in decades for france is a simmering resentment of the large immigrant communities who believe they are owed more than the state gives them, who police there is police racism, who believes they are treated in some way as second class citizens. the easterny in all of this is so much of north africa risk their lives trying to break into france illegally and then so many of them once there say this

is an unfair country. there's something there that doesn't compute. >> joey: there's not a direct overlay here but for me and our audience, i want to know is there anything to be learned from or gleaned from this when looking at things like the civil unrest from our own country or the border in our own country. >> several things. one is of course all sorts of other groups jump in and try to help the unrest get fueled and that's definitely happening in france as it happened here in the u.s. i think the bigger lessen, the deeper lessen the thing i tried to address in the strange death of europe is a lesson every country needs to think through, there are consequences about being racks about your border and immigration policies, there are just consequences from it. people hate saying that. immigration in particular is such an easy thing to kick down the road, we've seen that repeatedly in america. so much easier to let your successeses with all the illegals that jump in. so much easier, the human rights

group criticize you if you have strong border policies. so easy to resist it. but as we're seeing in france there is a cost down the road to have hundreds of thousands in the case of france millions of people who feel no allegiance to the state that they're in and, frankly, in the end, don't mind and in fact enjoy it when they start to burn the place down. >> joey: i guess that's my last question here. does france have the kind of political left and right, one kind of taking advantage and the other one calling out the way we do with some of these issues in our country? >> to some extent it's a similar debate. france, interestingly enough, they've been through so much hell in recent years, thinking about thing about the attacks, the master orist attacks in paris, the killing, assassination of the priest at the alter and all the most prominent secularists in the country, they've been through so much that even the left in france realize there's a problem. and that's something you can

realize in america as well. you can talk the talk on the sweet immigration border thing but one day even the left has to face up to the consequences. >> what's the name of the book. >> the strange death of europe and it came out in 2017 and i wish it weren't. >> joey: i'll have to read it i want to learn more about it. thank you. >> it's a pleasure. >> joey: carley to you >> carley: starting with ohio senator jd vance calling for president biden to use the military to help fight against the drug cartels at our southern border. >> i would empower the president of the united states, whether that's a democrat or republican to use the power of the u.s. military to go after the drug cartels and if we have real leadership we can make progress here >> carley: he also says there needs more action taken against the fentanyl crisis as the majority of drugs are coming from mexico and china >> ups reaches a tentative deal that could a strike. for delivery drivers in the next

contract. the teamsters held off plans to strike last week after ups offered provision toss compensation and benefits before their contract expires. the group says they will continue to apply pressure until all their demands are met >> and on to some baseball, the mlb releasing its all star game roster and los angeles angels super star shohei ohtani is head lining the american league squad. he'll be the team's starting pitcher and designated hitter and cross town star rival mookie betts is leading the charge for the national league. he'll be in the outfield. both teams will face off on july 11th in seattle and you can catch it on fox. those are the headlines joey back downstairs to you my friends. >> joey: if the braves only had him we would be doing all right >> carley: that's exactly what i think. >> joey: thanks carley >> coming up 25 balloons about to hit the skies at the freedom festival. abby hornacek getting her hot air balloon ready for take-off, not me. she joins us live from utah.

down, there's no turbulence, there's no -- you'll just be standing there on a platform. you'll be floating on a cloud basically. >> reporter: i can't wait for that and people can tune in for that next hour. but you're also wearing the red white and blue and you wear it so proudly. how does ballooning speak to our values that we have here in america and, again, what would you tell people who haven't experienced it before? >> to us, to pilot, ballooning is the ultimate expression of freedom. you launch and you're free to fly. you just are part of the system as you're just floating. >> reporter: i can't wait to experience that freedom with you in the next hour guys. you can tune in then and just keep track of all of our adventures in provo utah. curt thank you very much. guys. >> that is fantastic. and abby right now provo utah has more hot air than washington, dc which does not happen very often.
