3:02 am
pete: speaking of beautiful babies, will cain, carley shimkus in today for rachel campos duffy. carley: love to see the kids in the red, white and blue, nothing like it. i hope that you are still feeling the fourth of july spirit into the fourth of july weekend. this is the fourth of july weekend, isn't it? will: i think a lot of people took the entire week off, made it a 10-day -- carley: isn't that a beautiful way to do that? will: i don't know, tell me about it. pete: it was great. [laughter] carley: i remember the last vacation you went on, you went to hawaii, and weren't you just absolutely so sick during your vacation? will: yeah, i got covid. that was one year ago. i'll be taking that weekend off in a couple of weeks. carley: you deserve it, will. will: weapon hope you did manage to keep 10 days off, but surely you've heard the story they found some blow in the white
3:03 am
house. the midwestly of the missing -- mystery of the missing owner of the cocaine. who left cocaine can outside the situation room in house republicans are set to try to investigate and find that answer. here's a letter from representative james comer to the secret service: this incident has raised additional concerns with the committee regarding the level of security maintained at the white house. in order to assist the committee where its -- with its investigation, please provide a staff-level briefing on this matter by julyth, 2023. -- 4th, 2023. -- 14th. pete: james comer is a busy guy. a lot of that comes because there's been so much conflicting report. beyond conflicting, you can't even tell me where you found it, and now it's been three different places. carley: exactly. pete: and the lack of faith in an institution even like the secret service, now house republicans as they've had to do on almost everything, have to dig in -- carley: you can tell house republicans think something's up, and they have questions that they want answers to, and it is
3:04 am
because there has just been an unbelievable lack of response or lack of clarity on a a lot of issues when it comes to where the cocaine was with. like pete said, the location has changed three times. and also one of the most unique responses came from andrew bates who is the white house deputy press secretary when he was asked, did this cocaine belong to joe or hunter biden as former president trump suggested in a truth social post, and rather than saying, no, that's -- how could you with even ask that question, he said, well, can't go there because of the hatch act. and then yesterday white house press secretary karine jean-pierre was asked once again a very pointed question, does this cocaine belong to the biden family, and her response leads to even more questions. listen to this. >> reporter: can you just say once and for all whether or not the cocaining belonged to the biden family in. >> the biden family was not here. they were not here.
3:05 am
they were at camp david. they were not here friday, they were not here saturday, they were not here sunday, they were not even here on monday. so to ask that question is actually incredibly irresponsible and i'll just leave it there. will: so a point of clarification for everyone at home and with a critical mind, the hatch act is designed to prevent government officials from using government resources including the white house spokesperson's podium from campaigning. andrew bates probably would have been better off just lighting himself on fire and running off the stage screaming, it would have been more effective. karine jean-pierre in that clip which was edited, it was a 90-second answer. we don't have time to play you all of the nonsense. in short, didn't say no. carley: she didn't say no either. will: can you just settle this once and for all, is it the bidens' coke? didn't say no. pete: very clearly did not say no. also the bidens were not there
3:06 am
friday, so fox digital did some additional reporting on this, and here's the reality on that. according to the friday, june 30th pool report, biden gave remarks in the roosevelt room that afternoon and didn't decan part the white house for camp david until 6:34 p.m., that's on friday. the moment first lady jill biden, hunter biden and hunter's son beau biden. i guess friday night they weren't there, but i wonder if there was a moment where it was hunter's where he's on the helicopter and it's like, oh, man -- [laughter] laptop 2.0. will: i do did it again. my gun, my laptops, my crack pipes, now my coke. [laughter] carley: things became very interesting a couple days ago when one of the investigators told politico and you start to realize, wow, they're hedging here, it's going to be very difficult to find out who this cocaine belongs to, and i find that very hard to believe. if that is through, then there is a serious lapse in security at the white house that needs to
3:07 am
immediately be addressed. the other -- pete: there's no way that's true. carley: the other possibility is that investigators already know whose it is, and and they don't want to say. will: of course. pete: if you're a first time on -- or infrequent visitor to the white house? are you bringing your coke to the white house? no. if you think you can get around the rules and the white house is just kind of your second home, maybe you can give it a shot. carley: yeah. we don't -- that's not to say politically that it is the reason the white house is being so cagegy about this, is because it's definitively hunter biden's. it could also be a political headache for them if it's anybody. pete: yep. carley: they have to then prosecute this person when joe biden's son is a former drug addict who did crack and cocaine and who he now says that he's proud of. will: yeah. you know, kayleigh mcenany pointed out, you know, karine jean-pierre's lying about the bidens being there on friday. even if they left on friday
3:08 am
night, that would make it 48 hours until discovery, that's a little weird to think of coke sitting around the white house -- pete: unless it was a cubby. i've been to the white house -- will: and we don't know the location. carley: it was in the library first, then the west wing, now the near the situation room. will: the big takeaway here probably is less about the coke and more about, to me, the lengths with which they'll go to cover up something, honestly, as small -- and i don't think it's small, but as small in context of their other alleged crimes as coke in the white house. if they'll do this for coke in the white house, what would they do for allegations of corruption? what kind of lengths would they go to for real serious crimes like treason? that's kind of what senator john kennedy had to say. watch. >> i've been in the situation room. there are cameras everywhere. i'm pretty sure the secret
3:09 am
service knows. i don't know who did it. i don't know whose blow it was. i probably shouldn't say this, but if my record was as bad as this white house's record, i'd probably give my staff blow too. it's never the crime, it's the cover-up. the white house could have handled this real simply by saying, hey, the secret service found some cocaine in the situation room. we don't know how it got in here, but, by god, we're going to find out. and as soon as we find out whose blow it is, we're either going to fire them and/or prosecute and we'll let you know. and then tell the american people the truth. but this i white house doesn't do that. carley: yeah, that should have been the answer, and if it was, wouldn't be talking about it right now. the white house is trying to avoid this entirely and they're making it into an even bigger story. how is this going to affect biden politically? he's spent 50 years trying to build a public image of being a family man and somebody who cares about, you know, middle
3:10 am
class family values. and then in the past few months you find that there's a grand child he has has never acknowledged, coke e in the white house, the allegation is he's taken millions of dollars from foreign adversaries, and his son gets a sweetheart plea deal for crimes that other people would have absolutely been prosecuted for. pete: yeah. everybody's got to pay their fair share of taxes unless your name is hunter. yeah, there's contradictions that have become glaring. this is lots of people that want to be occupants of the place where the cocaine was found, is and one of those is former president donald trump. will, you had a great interview with ron desantis this week with on the 8 p.m. show which showed some of the contrast in the retail style in which donald trump campaigns. he famously showed up at the iowa state fair in his helicopter years ago and said i am who i am, here's why you
3:11 am
should support me. well, he's back in iowa talking about farmers, talking about why he's the right guy and why he believes desantis is not. watch. >> i'm proud to be most pro-farmer president that you've ever had, and i like to say very strongly and proudly that i fought for iowa ethanol like no president in history. [applause] and ethanol period. every iowan also needs to know that ron desantis totally despises iowa ethanol and ethanol generally. he's got no personality. you probably found that out. his polls are crashing. he's got no personality. but he would be a catastrophe for the farmers of nebraska and and iowa. carley: yeah. so president biden just -- president trump, rather, just announced that he made $35 million over three months. ron desantis in terms of fund
3:12 am
raising, $20 million, i believe $8 million was in the first few dayses of his campaign. a big fund raising amount and then it sort of tapered out. you just hear president trump there, and you are reminded of how good he is at these rallies and also how funny he can be. will: brian griffin, who's the press secretary for ron desantis, he had this to say, governor ron desantis will be a champion for farmers and use every tool available to open new markets. he has proven himself to be a fighter, the fighter america needs to stand up to the chinese communist party to protect u.s. interests, farmers and workers. president trump, you mentioned the pin-striped suit when he showed up to iowa back in 2016. president trump went to a dairy queen, this is cupid of going with viral as -- kind of going viral as well. he was a little confused about exactly what is a blizzard. pete: i think he knows -- will: you think it was a joke? pete: i think it was trump
3:13 am
playing to the moment. will: let's watch. [cheers and applause] >> usa! usa! usa! usa! >> so everybody wants a blizzard. what the hell is a blizzard, huh? [laughter] [inaudible conversations] take care of the people, okay? can you take care of them for me? we'll do the blizzard thing, all right? will: he didn't know what -- carley: but he wanted everybody to have one. will: here's the thing, i know he loves fast food, but he's from the northeast -- pete: you're right. dairy queen headquartered in minneapolis, mc -- minnesota. will: it's a midwestern popular chain. pete: they tried to get dairy queen for the show. i think it's in staten island, it doesn't open until nine. will: he's a mcdonald's guy. if you said to him, and you're
3:14 am
welcome to call in, mr. president, a blizzard is a mcinfrastructure rely -- pete: that is the comp. will: but it's the o.g., the blizzard's the o.g -- pete: for sure. carley: he goes on to a say did the fake news media like my speech, where is abc news, okay, fine, even though they're fake news, they get a blizzard too. pete: it's amazing. this is trump playing to his strength. by the way, when you -- it used to be a tap dance for republicans to talk about ethanol in iowa because of the idea you don't want to support subsidies. and so they would tap dance around it and one would say, okay, i support it. trump just said, okay, i'm going to support you, the farmers, and i think that response from desantis' campaign is the old school way of trying to campaign and tap dance around iowa. it's just not going to work. and if your opponent is saying you have no personality, you've got to fight back with more than
3:15 am
a policy statement on that. and that's where i think desantis hasn't gotten his footing yet. if you look at 2016, remember when cruz and rubio started flailing back at trump and playing his game, it just didn't work. watching how desantis has to increasingly deal with the retail politics of trump will define whether or not he can make a comeback in this race rah. carley: hard place to be. pete: could ron walk into a dairy wean like that? not many people could and hand out red spoons. you get a bliss a ard. [laughter] carley: all right. we have some more news to get to. new overnight, eight people rush to the hospital after a shooting at a house part in -- party in el paso. witnesses described the scene as a high school party. fortunately, officials say, the victims suffered only minor injuries. no word on on any arrests or what led up to the gunfire. a cargo ship fire that killed two new jersey firefighters will likely burn for several more days according to officials. an investigation into what caused the a fire won't happen
3:16 am
until the fire is out, but according to the coast guard the ship reportedly carrying about 5,000 cars. the blaze, which broke out wednesday night, killed augusto and wayne brooks jr. the two will be laid to rest next week. and a would-be robber finding out crime really doesn't pay. check this out. [background sounds] >> everybody get down! [inaudible conversations] get down! carley: well, the suspect demanded money, but look, you see there calm customers at the atlanta nail salon seem totally unfazed by his demands. one woman eventually stands up and and heads for the exit. the fed-up suspect snatched her cell phone before giving up and watching -- walking out cool as a cucumber in atlanta. [laughter] i wonder why. will: seem like they've been there before.
3:17 am
carley: yeah. i hope not. pete: usually that commanding voices gets that response -- carley: and they were just, like, you know what? my nails are wet, i can't get in my bag. will: i'm tuck the on you telling me dairy queen was based out of minneapolis. i think of so southern. small towns you can count on two things in every town, the post office and dairy queen. that's when you had a town. pete: yes. that's a commonality we have as young people from minnesota and texas, dairy queen in every small town. will: yeah. pete: look at that. will: still ahead, an unimaginable tragedy, police searching for suspects after a former u.s. term interpreter was brutally murdered in our nation's capital. his close friend and former army colleague joins us next. pete: and french president macron speak out on the unrest in his country. the surprising claim he's making about what's behind the riots.

3:22 am
d.c. the father of four fled the war-torn nation during the chaotic u.s. withdrawal in 2021. originally settling in philadelphia before moving to washington, d.c. concerned about philadelphia climb rates. crime rates. no i arrests have yet been made, those are the perpetrators who moments earlier had shot him. police released this video of possible suspects running down an alley after the shooting. joining us now, retired lieutenant colonel matthew butler and special forces veteran who served two tours in afghanistan with nav -- nasrat, and jeremy malone, a close friend who helped him escape. what a terrible story. matthew, you served with him. tell us about what it was like to serve with him this afghanistan. -- in afghanistan. >> it was a real pleasure, to be honest with you, pete. nasrat was kind of a legend within the special force
3:23 am
community as we occupied bagram air base and what was known as the special forces camp, camp vance. nasrat, essentially, was about a 10-year-old boy when that happened in 2001, and he just hung around us. so by the time i met him in 2009, you know, the stories were still almost like a folklore so to speak about this kid can tha- [laughter] sort of was raised by green berets so to peek. pete: let me stay with you real quick, colonel. he was raised by u.s. special forces, and then he invested in, for a decade, fighting alongside them. >> well, yeah, kind of almost two decades in total. i mean, it was probably about, you know, by the time i met him in 2009-2010, he was my interpreter for both of those tours, and so he would have been about 18-19 at those ages. and so he would have served as
3:24 am
an interpreter for the next 10 years, but he'd already invested about, like i said is, 8 or 9 years of working on the camp and being involved with us. so he essentially in his short life, 31 years when he passed, he gave us about 18 of those years in service of this country, not his. pete: wow. yeah, absolutely. jeremy, you helped him escape after the collapse of afghanistan. the taliban certainly would have wanted to hunt him. he came here for a better life. >> yeah. well, and matt did as well. there were a lot of people within our networks that were doing a lot of things to help nasrat. he was always helping other people as well. he didn't have a job at that point that once the taliban takes over anybody who is pro-u.s. does not have an opportunity to work anymore, and many of them were hunted like nasrat was. but he didn't have a paying job to do, but it was important to
3:25 am
him to earn every favor that he got. he never wanted you to think he was taking something for free or that he took any help for granted. and he was also committed to helping other afghans that helped us as well. those people were his friends even if he didn't know them. so he was always doing whatever he could to help the evacuation effort for people that he felt were, you know, his compatriots, the afghans that helped the u.s. military mission in afghanistan. pete: man, i know guys like him whether it's abdul, guys i served with in afghanistan and iraq who were ledge e jendz, you're right. -- legends. you couldn't do your job without them. you don't realize how difficult it is to come to the united states, restart a life with your wife and kids. how is his family doing, colonel, do you know? >> i've had some contact with them through a family friend because the wife doesn't speak english. and they're making it,
3:26 am
they're -- it's still very challenging. there's the still a lot of, i guess, sort of like bure with accurate -- bureaucratic or admin type of hurdles that we need to work through respect to life insurance policies and identification and things like that. but we're going to get there. pete: well, i want to thank you both for remembering his legacy. i believe the funeral is today. we honor him, we're grateful for his service. we pray for his family. by the way, go to fox&friends.com, there's a gofundme page for nasrat's family and want to thank matthew and and jeremy for being here and remembering his memory. nasrat was just 31 years old and leaves behind a wife and four children. may he rest in peace.

3:31 am
primary contest, some prominent democrats including aoc and adam schiff are aggressively pushing to lower the voting age. earlier this year new york congresswoman grace may reintroduced legislation that would change the voting age to just 16 saying, quote, 16 and 17-year-olds are legally permitted to work, drive, and they also pay federal income taxes. they are contributing members of our society, and i believe it is right and fair to allow them to vote in our elections. here to react, host of the spillover podcast and turning point usa contributor alex clark, recent grad and former chairman of the gw college republicans, former president of gw for israel, ezra mayer, gen-z voter and staff writer or and social chair for the chicago thinker, georgia kneel jackson. it's good to see you all this morning. alex, i'll start with you. as politically-minded and intelligent as you are, tell us what you were doing at 16 years old and if you felt mature
3:32 am
enough to vote. >> gosh, at 16, well, i would say i'm the exception, right? like, i was conservative. i grew up in a conservative family. but we know that typically that is not the case. democrats rely on two things to win elections, voters having low to little information and the less real world experience the better. statistically, young people in every generation lean left until they start three things, marriage, mortgage and and making babies. the brookings institute has actually called these conservativizing life events, and you can add a fourth on to that which would be paying taxes. if the democrats lower the voting age even just another 2 or years to 16, that is more time they have to easily manipulate minds that have not experienced any conservativizing life events yet. the good news is at least this voting group of people we're talking about has a pulse. so that's a plus. we can work with it. [laughter] carley: i am picking up your point there. ezra, so democrats who support
3:33 am
this push -- and there are several of them, mainly in the democratic socialist wing of the party -- they it's all about expanding democracy. do you think that's true, or is it about expanding their voting base? >> yeah. well, good morning, and thanks again for having me on. i think, you know, when i was 16, i was politically active, but at the same time i was also, you know, participating in sports and hanging out with my friends with the judgment of a 16-year-old kid. it doesn't make sense to expand the electorate to that age. i think some people are definitely genuine about this, but at the same time the high profile figures that we're seeing, you know, kind of pop -- propagate this like adam schiff and ao conscious -- aoc, a lot of that is driven by the fact thattistically that demographic is way more likely to vote with the democratic party. i think we as conservatives can take this as a wake-up call to say, you know, maybe we should address this and try and focus
3:34 am
our messaging more on the younger ages and explaining that, you know, conservativism is about empowering the individual to succeed on his or her own merits ands to try and tap into this growing political activism amongst the youth. that being said, you know, it's great for them to be active, it's great for them to get involve and to gain some experience, but we should hold off on, you know, on enfranchising any kids until they've reached the age of majority at 18. carley: jamil, you're a democrat, do you think this is a good idea? and also we're all sharing our teenage stories, so if you want to share one as to what you were doing at 16, we're all ears. >> i would say this is a terrible idea. we're nowing with told that children are -- now being told that children, especially 16-year-olds, they're old enough to go to sexual pride parades, drag shows, they're old enough to consent to surgeries that physically change their body or their sex. and now we're being told that children are old enough to vote,
3:35 am
16-year-olds are. so are 16-year-olds old enough to own a handgun or even a long gun? democrat, socialists or radical extremists, they will tell you no. so why stop at the second amendment? and you quickly find out that democrats' only guiding principle in this upcoming election is power. carley: a bipartisan panel saying this is probably not the best idea. thank you so much for joining us, we appreciate i. >> thank you. >> thank you. carley: still ahead, french president emmanuel macron taking the blame game to the next level claiming video games and tiktok are partially responsible for the country's recent unrest. a live report next plus a major one for faith, freedom and football. a new florida law allowing high school sports teams to pray before games. we're going to talk to one athlete who fought for years to make this happen. ♪ ♪

carley: the fallout in france after the police shooting of a teenager continues as president emmanuel macron blames social media and video games for the ongoing riots. will: french lawmakers now considering extreme surveillance measures to combat the unrest. pete: alexandria hoff joins us live in washington with more. >> reporter: good morning. yeah, there's a big tech component in all of this. president macron floated the
3:40 am
idea of cutting off access to apps like snapchat and tiktok where scenes of extreme december order -- disorder have spread worldwide. he sees it more as the fuel for the unrest. his administration has back pedaled on the idea of stifle thing social media, but macron did likennen the motivations of protesters to young people, quote, intoxicated by video games and vying for views, also stating among the youngest ones that lead to a sort of departure from reality. we have the impression sometimes that some of them are living out the video games that have brainwashed them in the treat. the -- in the street. the country, of course, plunged into this chaos following the june 27th death of the 17-year-old who was shot in the paris suburb. the teen was north african descent igniting tensions over what protesters see as police profiling. the president of the movement of the enterprises of france has estimated hundreds of banks can

organization that is not yet fully understood, but what really caught my attention was the last thing alexandria had to say. the government steps in and says need to do these extraordinary measures to stop these things, and then in the end the chaos will subside, but the measures stay. so that law we've been talking about is the ability to remote access your camera and your microphone on your phone if you are a suspect. without your knowledge. so you're carrying it around -- look, we all to some extent suspect this is going on, you know? privately, we we know, like, instagram's listening to you. like, we -- i've seen it happen. we can talk about a product and then there it is. we could turn our phones on right now, and be an ad for dairy queen. [laughter] but to legalize it with the government say, no, we're going to be able to tap in at any moment, that'll stay forever in france and, look, that's france. let's pay attention to what they do here in the united states. it starts there, it comes here. pete: yeah. 9 and the underlying issue is if you have unare restricted
3:43 am
migration and then no attempt for actual assimilation, then you have a permanent underclass that feels like they're not included in french society, and you get this. carley: yeah. pete: you think -- and then you start to on a surface level blame it on video games and then the awe -- autocrats use it as an advantage. carley: yeah. we saw cities on fire and mass looting in 2020, and no politicians here blamed that on video games because it's a ridiculous suggestion. what is happening, i don't know a a lot about the inner workings of french politics, but, pete, you are right, there is mass immigration in france, much of it illegal, and then those communities are completely separate from the french population. pete: and very insular. carley: yeah, very insular. they don't want to aa simulate at all, so they don't have skin in the game. it's easy to loot and riot and destroy a community when you don't have skin in the game. that's part of the issue here.

will: all very, very true and scary. a massive manhunt is underway after a man accused of murder escapes from pennsylvania from a pennsylvania jail. he used a rope made of bed sheets. according to police, michael burrham was in the jail's gym and managed to escape through the roof. he is currently facing 26 charges including the murder of a 34-year-old woman in may. he allegedly left a note to his father saying he was not sorry for what he did. the u.s. air force launching a probe after mysterious investor snapped up nearly $1 billion in land near a major air base in northern california. that according to an exclusive report by the "wall street journal." starting in 2018 around 55,000 acres of farmland was purchased near travis air force base by flannery associates. the company is registered in delaware, but nobody behind the company has been identified, and there are fears it may be connected to a hostile or power. now to golf, michelle wie

[cheers and applause] >> oh, yeah! will: wie west is ending her historic career on a high note. he broke with numerous records at a young age including being the youngest player to win the u.s. amateur at age 13, and those are your headlines. pete: another thing making us feel old, that she's retiring. i remember when she came on -- carley: you do? pete: yes, of course. a 13-year-old phenom. will: i missed the wedding. pete: i did too. carley: now you know.

will: brand new florida law bringing faith back to the field, allowing sports teams to hold pregame prayers before games. our next guests have been fighting for faith and free speech since 2015 when tampa's cambridge christian school was prohibited from praying over the loud speaker ahead of their championship game. jesse pa knew cho and former student and high school football player jacob ennis join us now. jacob, i'd love to start with you are. you were a student involved in this fight at one time. it's now, i know, continues to be something important to you. tell me about your personal connection to this case and why it's so important. >> good morning. thanks for having us. prayer is an essential part of the christian life, and it's foundational at cambridge christian school. and it's something that we did
3:52 am
before every single home game, and, you know, it gave us an opportunity to glorify god in that and also for us as players on the field to pray with our parents who are in the stands. and so it's something that meant a lot to us, and, you know, really to get to state championship and to be denied something that is so foundational to our christian faith and heritage was shocking. and just especially being born and raised in a nation that is supposed to protect christian religious liberty, and to have that denied was shocking to us. will: jessie, i'd love for you to bring us up-to-date on where this stands as a case can. i know that, i believe i have this correct that the facts were despite being a religious school, the argument was made it was a public stadium using public loud speakers and, therefore, it would be prohibited from using because of separation of church and state public resources for prayer. but now at the same time governor ron desantis has pushed through a law here in
3:53 am
florida as we see that's going to allow for prayer before schools -- and then that brings into account, you know, where the federal law is, how this will work when it comes to potentially an appeal to the supreme court. where are we right now in sort of a legal limbo when it comes to this in florida? >> well, good morning, thanks for having us and discussing this important issue. you're exactly right on the fact. back in 2015, the state athletic association said that two religious, two christian schools playing in their championship game could not use the loudspeaker to have communal prayer in the stadium because it was a public stadium, and the athletic association was created by the state. that was wrong as a matter of constitutional law at the time. the first amendment says you have protection, you have a shield to be able to practice your religion and speak freely, and the athletic association used it as a sword against religion to say you can't in public exercise and show your
3:54 am
faith. and so the school sue. you can find out more about the case at first liberty.org. the school sued, and the case has been going on for seven years. you're absolutely right, the state has passed a law that says, essentially, the loudspeaker should be open to everyone before a game on a nondiscriminatory basis under state law. the problem is the athlete -- athletic association has been defending its view of what, of the establishment clause, this idea that somehow allowing religious schools to pray would violate the constitution. they've been defending that for seven years, and they still have never retracted that. so farce -- as far as we can tell, their view of federal law and their prayer ban is still in place, and we need a court to issue an injunction against that. will: right. so what that inevitably leads us towards is some collision, some case where you test the state law against what is presumed to be federal case law, and we find out from the supreme court. but we'll end with you, jacob.
3:55 am
i think jesse's point about a sword versus shield is interesting. if you have free speech, two private christian schools how can able to enjoy the privileges of flee speech. >> is absolutely -- free speech. absolutely. that is accessible. this isn't just something here in florida as a constitutional matter. this is, you know, to protect these religious liberties for christians, you know, across our nation. and to have, have that right protected will allow christians at other, you know, schools across the nation to have this public prayer before football games. and that's really what this is all about. will: all right. it's a fascinating case. it's a good development there in florida. if you bereave in free speech -- believe in free speech and you believe that a a prayer before a high school football game should not violate etch's sensitivities. jacob and jesse, thank you guys for being with us this morning. >> thank you. will: more "fox & friends" coming up.
