2:28 am
differences, but we know from experience, if we work at it, we can find the path ahead and ways to resolve these challenges. >> todd: the word cooperation, does china want cooperation or domination? >> the chinese communist party doesn't want to cooperate with us, they want to eat our lurn and dinner for free. take a look at what they have been doing for decades, generations now. taking advantage of many of our businesses and it. hacking the united states and not listening to us on many different fronts when trying to raise valid issues. they want to dominate the united states, they want control and doing it with over billion resi residents in china, more global platform and they won't stop and

juvenile offenders to local group homes. officials in san francisco acknowledge sending the recent group of hundre honduran and sad others had been transported down in the past. tomi lahren joins us now. what goes on here is you have governor gavin newsom, he has suggested criminal charges and an investigation and accused governor desantis of kidnapping migrants. and sending them to other areas but it turns out in 2008 he was doing the same thing but in his case he was caught transporting child migrants convicted of crimes out of san francisco to san bernardino, so how do you explain that? >> governor gavin newsom is a hypocrite? i mean, knock me over with a feather, carley, i could have never imagined in all my years living in california that gavin newsom would be a hypocrite, yeah. you know, this is really par for the course here. but not only was he dumping these individuals, he was
2:58 am
dumping them in the inland empire. anybody that's familiar with california knows that is the place in california where you dump people to, you know, get away with it, because they don't want them in l.a. they don't want them in san francisco or santa barbara so you dump them in san bernardino and people struggling there have to deal with it. is he going to run from a lot of these stories and scandals and stories that will bubble up to the surface. should he which you you know i believe is he going to run for president in 2024. makes people like governor abbott and governor desantis very excited to see because it's just another comparison between gavin newsom's california and every other great red state that people from california are fleefleeing en masse for good rn to believe. >> todd: i worked there four years first tv job you literally had people dumped from l.a., san

3:00 am
a fight. i mean, we watched donald trump for how many years now. if you think donald trump is going to go away quietly, you don't know donald trump. but maybe this is a good pathway for a president joe biden to get out of the race. so i don't think that it's a crazy prediction. they just got the wrong guy. >> we shall see 475 days to go. >> todd: you counted. >> carley: tomi, thanks for joining us, "fox & friends" begins right now. >> whistleblowers have been nothing but credible. >> republicans in the house oversight committee said the federal investigation into hunter biden aligned with what they previously learned about political interference. >> many in the liberal media have tried to discredit the whistleblowers. >> we have been fighting to make it clear israel is a racist state. >> democrats pushed back against this comment by one of their own members. >> they should take action against their own from their leadership within their own democratic party. >> why are people scared to have an option they may be threatened to do the right thing. >> voters looking for a different kind of candat
