future is not likely, that would put nato at war with russia. >> lucas: president zelenskyy firing back, it is unprecedented and absurd. vague wording about conditions is added, even for inviting ukraine, seems there is no r readiness to invite ukraine to nato. nikki haley don't see nato make mistakes it made in 2008 when nato welcomed ukraine to join, but did not agree on a timeline, paving the way for putin to invade georgia months later and then ukraine in 2014. >> they are missing the exact strategy that could end this war. nato has been a 70-year success story of keeping russia out.

he's sleepy joe and want him to think he's in work mode, not party mode. >> todd: this is not a dinner to celebrate and eat good food, there is purpose behind the dinners, to show the world that you are strong on the world stage. the dinner, the walk, the family picture, all of it. when the president says, i cannot handle more than a four-day work week, average american works five day plus workday week, that is sad in and of itself. you are president of the united states. this is not a normal job. if you do not think you can handle it, you should not have run. this job is all encompassing because you are leader of the free world. >> carley: this is third time the president has skipped a dinner. today he will have a family photo with g-7 leaders and by

republicans raise questions about high-profile cases including the trump russia probe and the ongoing investigation into hunter biden. listen. >> we've got director wray coming in, a lot of questions for him. does he agree with the durham report? what about how they treated individuals differently than before? >> i still would like to know who directed the fbi briefing of senator grassley and i and leaks to the press to smear me and the investigation of hunter biden in august of 2020. been three years, i've asked for open hearing. >> brooke: two members have signed to resolution to impeach the fbi director alleging that the fbi intimidated and entrapped american citizens deemed enemies of the biden regime thchl is first testimony

since republicans took the house back in november. >> carley: virginia congressman ben, will be in the hearing with the fbi director later this morning. about his opening statement, the work the men and women do to protect the american people go way beyond the headlines. is that a persuasive argument on his behalf? >> no, be used against conservatives and parents who want to testify at school board meetings and catholics who want freedom to worship. he has a lot to answer for. most of the fbi are men and women defending the country, the other bad actors have discredited the agency. >> todd: nobody is questioning

the brave men and women who do the rank and file work. they are heroes and defend our nation, this has to deal with the top. that said, what questions are you going to ask wray today? >> well, we're going to ask him about the failure of the agency to follow procedures when they obtain fisa warrantses. they claim to make changes to the process, across technology industry, online, social media, parents don't feel they can express their view in northern virginia in my home state, there is a lot that has to be done to reestablish credibility among the american people for the fbi. >> carley: congressman gurloft

is a -- he says he is innocent s, but being targeted. what is your read on that situation? >> the protection of whistleblowers is critical to obtain the truth. we have to be able to ensure that the people who come forward are not unfairly targeted. if this is happening, we want to know why and what the fbi is going to do to stop targeting whistleblowers who want to come forward with information. >> todd: scientists at the center of the covid lab leak cover-up admitted downplaying the theory. this shows director andrew rambot saying given the

exmriative show that would happen, my feeling, we should say given there is no evidence of specifically engineered virus, we cannot distinguish between national evolution and calling it natural process. dr. christian anderson said, i agree that is a reasonable conclusion, i hate politics is injected into this, it is impossible. they were worried china would be upset. to see it spelled out like this, wow, what was your reaction to these admissions? >> the american people have been lied to by their government. they are furious about it, so is congress. we are beyond furious that when it comes to trillions of dollars spent when it comes to the actions of their government to

silence contrary viewpoints about covid and the masking and vaccinations, these are angering the american people and we are not going to let up until we get answers and solutions to rectify the wrongs that were done. >> carley: messages were written back in february of 2020 and they wrote a paper that dr. fauci cited that the lab leak theory was false. you have a long day, we appreciate you waking up with us. mothers fighting back, banding together to stop court from allowing transgender athletes in high school sports, two moms are here to share their story. >> todd: did you see this? >> 2-2 to diaz and back it goes and diaz puts national league in

of their hard work. >> carley:anna, you are mother of two. how would this impact your daughter that play softball. >> it would impact her greatly. having to be forced to play against biological males and to share bathrooms and locker rooms, when girls at her age are already insecure about their bodies and having to share that private space would be a great impact. she loves the sport and i don't want that to be impacted as my oldest was impacted when she played soccer and my oldest ended up having to quit because she played on a co-ed team when she aged out of girls league and

she went from being a center striker to never being able to touch the ball on the co-ed team, so ended up quitting. >> carley: you have support of tom horn, he supports this arizona law and says it is unfair to have girls who have taken sports seriously and worked hard and excel going for college scholarships to compete against males because of the advantage. where does it go from here? >> we are hoping the judge will see we are representing women and girls and families who want to protect rights of our girls. they will give a place at the table to those most impacted. they are girls and i have three

daughters who played competitive volleyball and are playing now in college. she and her friends of worried about girl sports if biological boy bodies are able to compete against them. we hope the judge will see this is very important case and the attorney general is not defending this or funding it. we will stand up for the girls. >> carley: thank you for joining us on wednesday morning, we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> todd: time for baseball action, national league snapping nine-game all-star game losing streak after beating the american league 3-2 in last night's mlb all-star game. diaz, big home run in the eighth, to secure the win. >> 2-2 in the air hit to left

♪ >> todd: we are back with a fox news alert. nato members set to gather to

announce a joint declaration of support sit down with involves. joe biden sit the nato dinner blaming his quote, unquote, packed scheduled deciding to skip out on the dinner last night even though he just spent a weekend at the beach. >> biden has four full days of official business and preparing for a big speech tomorrow and another day at summit. joe concha joins us now. the white house is saying that the president is in work mode, not party mode, and he is definitely not sleepy joe. >> fascinating. a four-day workweek. could you imagine that, carley, when you were working up until you were nine months pregnant five to seven days a week suddenly saying four straight days i don't think we can make this dinner anymore. the dinner is part of the work because these are with nato leaders. these are with people where you could have candid conversations outside of your typically settings and get maybe some

things done when you see eye popping polls, todd and carley that show 7 in 10 americans don't want to see a see squeal to president biden's first act they don't want him to seek re-election in 2024. democrats are not comfortable with this president in office until potentially 86. every reason every time he is just too damn old. that's not to say 80 is old. the problem is he is simply not aging well. when you skip dinners with world leaders that screams to the world that this man is just too tired and can't handle a full workweek anymore and that's fine if you are a golf starter at the local golf course but this which is the commander-in-chief and leader of the free world and he may have to work a little bit sometimes. he always needs extended weekend in delaware to recover from barely working in the first place. this is the perception and optics very real and will be an issue in the 2024 election, todd? >> todd: if he gets there carefully crafted narratives that helped him to win in 2020,

leading to 2024 now seem to be falling apart. welcome back. >> i miss you, too angel. i will call you when i get back to delaware. love you, bye-bye she is incredible kid. >> chocolate, chocolate chip. >> i'm not joking when i say this. if you ever ever working with me and i hear you treat another colleague with disrespect, talk down to someone. i promise you i will fire you on the spot. >> okay. so that's the narrative. then there are these headlines in the "new york times," no less. this isn't bright wart this is the "new york times" saying it's seven grandkids, mr. president, reference to the fact that he only references six grandkids ignoring navy in arkansas. be axios curses at white house staff calling him quote an old yeller. do you think this is part of a democrat machine effort to, i don't know, test the waters on replacing joe biden heading into

2024? >> it is interesting that these stories came out in succession now. the one about the seventh grandchild that was opinion piece by maureen dowd she is probably the most read writer in the opinion section. it's interesting that comes out. axios story comes out with unnamed sources talking about all the all the f bombs joe biden is throwing around. i promise you i will fire you on the spot if you disrespect or talk down to somebody. i guess mr. biden will be firing himself any day now. look, you have got to wonder at this point how many democrats in powerful places like those media outlets he just talked about do not want like we just talked about him to seek a second term and rather than have a gavin newsom at the top of the ticket instead. certainly not kamala harris. it seems that gavin newsom is already campaigning without actually announcing and then you see robert f. kennedy jr. at 20% in polling. marion williamson 20% in

polling. we are heading toward a biden trump inevitable rematch, a lot could happen between now and then. seems like there is a nudging going on saying you know whether a, mr. president, maybe did you your job. you got rid of trump and now it's time to head to that golf course or wherever you go. >> carley: time will tell. "fox & friends" starts right now. >> no comment for biden for the claim to join nato only when the time is right. >> cannot accept actively engaged in a war. >> involves slammed lack of a timeline as absurd. >> dos agree with the durham report how they treated individuals differently. >> wray is expected to defend the bureau's words of potential political bias. >> directed the fbi to interfere in our investigation of hunter biden. >> will scary watching it happen i don't know how much higher it was going to go. >> catastrophic flooding i
