alexandria hoff is here with the latest. >> let's get to the protective order first. not unusual in criminal cases. in fact, one was granted in the classified documents case down in florida. but trump's attorneys argue that no new order should block nonsensitive facts about the january 6th case from being released publicly. this weekend the judge denied their request for more time to respond to the 5:00 p.m. deadline stands. in a post yesterday the former president wrote, quote: there is no way i can get a fair trial to the judge signed to the ridiculous freedom of speech fair elections case everybody knows this and so does she. she will be immediately asking for recusal of this judge on very powerful grounds and likewise for change of venue out of d.c. got in a war of words with his former bottom and former g.o.p. competitor this weekend. he also spoke about possibly being called to testify at trial. listen. >> i testified before the grand

jury under a subpoena after we got clarification from the court about protections that i have under the constitution as the president of the senate. but i had no plans to testify, but, look, we will -- we'll always comply with the law. >> well, right now trump faces a total of 78 charges in three separate criminal cases in new york, florida and d.c. his attorneys say they soon expect a fourth election-related indictment to come out of georgia. >> it's been highly spoken about. i think if you look at the barricades, the fact that she has got her pr team doing fresh pictures for her is a good indicator that fanny wants her moment. and she will get on the bandwagon with the rest of the corrupt d.a.'s and ags we have seen out of this country. >> speaking about fulton county, georgia d.a. fanny willis. we will have more from ha lien that habba coming up a at 8:00.

>> steve: it's called a protective order, that they have got to rule on today at 5:00. it's not really about protecting anybody. i think people think it's a security thing it. just protects the evidence, right? >> yeah. it's the discovery that the prosecution is going to come up with. they say that they have this whole round of new evidence that they are going to be presenting to the defense. they don't want that that come out there. they say it's highly sensitive it. seems that the trump team thinks this is going to be too overreaching this protective order. it's not a gag order. a gag order means you can't talk about the case at all. you will be able to discuss it but not parts of it. >> ainsley: materials grand jury transcripts provided by the doj through discovery. >> brian: one thing is pretty clear, trump, like many experts would agree, even people on the prosecution side would say hey, wait a second, this judge couldn't be worse for trump. even though they said it came random on a. we had and the venue in washington, d.c., where the president got 5% support, there's no way he should feel

secure with that judge and with this jury. but it's up to the judge to decide if she should recuse herself, which makes it not likely. i thought john lauro was really strong. i think he did five or six interviews. really understood the case inside and out. >> ainsley: he made great arguments. he was on with dana loesch. >> brian: listen, if mike pence goes true to his book, which is his biography, he will be strong for us, meaning the defense. >> steve: right. one of the things -- cope in mind, what mike pence said is the former president and then president, pressured the vice president, when they were still in office to reject the votes for joe biden in favor of false electors. but john lauro said yesterday, donald trump didn't direct pence to do anything. he asked him in what he referred to as an aspirational way, which is the new argument, and then when asked about georgia, when he -- when the former president had the phone call with the former -- rather the current

secretary of state, mr. raffensperger there saying can you find 11,000 votes and you could face criminal repercussions if you did not. lauro said once again that was aspirational app. that's a new word. he didn't ask him to do anything in particular. he just kind of hoped that he would when i watched him on different networks and. so anchors on other networks were really challenging him, it does make you think wow that might be a good argument. >> steve: what does that mean? >> ainsley: here is trump's attorney john lauro. >> the biden administration wants the judge to put in place an order that will prevent the press from obtaining exculpatory and material information that might be relevant to these proceedings. even though mr. trump, president trump has argued from the very beginning, as i have, that this is an attack, this indictment is an attack on his family rights. now with the biden administration wants to do is

deny all americans the opportunity to learn nonsensitive information about what the case involves in a political season. >> would you be okay with the president's support, televised trial? >> i personally would love to see that. i'm convinced the biden administration does not want the american people to see the truth. and they acted on it by filing this protective order, which is an effort to keep important information about this case from the press. >> a point, brian, about the judge, them wanting a different judge. they want a change of venue. trump's team was told you have until 5:00 today, as you know, to respond to the latest news. >> and he is saying no, let's extend it until thursday. >> we need more time to discuss. this our attorneys need more time. and he is trying to slow down the case. we have been told that but prosecutors are pledging a speedy trial and it appears that the judge is agreeing with them and says, no. we need to you respond today.

we're not changing the deadline 5:00 p.m. today so we can move this along quickly. >> brian: john lauro says in a case like this you have two to three years to prepare. you did. >> me to get this done in a matter of weeks we have all the other cases? >> i think the timeline, if you are a prosecutor, you want justice. so what's the big deal about the election? why do you have to get it done before the election? why is that even in your mind about the election? you just go about -- go out for the truth, jack smith. >> ainsley: trump expects a fourth indictment to come down within weeks of the fulton county one. he even said he is welcoming another indictment. >> he says he only needs one more indictment to win the 2024 presidential election. >> steve: that was a good joke that he did there in iowa. the thing about mr. lauro saying he would love if it were televised. he knows for a fact that since 1946, federal proceedings cannot be photographed or televised; however, the state court in georgia, they could televise that. and he's right.

we would all like to watch it. i don't think the trump team would like to have it tele advised. >> ainsley: you don't? i think they would. i remember him saying i hope they handcuff me. i want the world to see. >> steve: he wanted the mugshot to fund raise off of and whatnot. stay tuned. let's see what happens. >> brian: one other thing to add about this. if you are running against trump, the big story is how do you make some progress? so doug burgum is on over the weekend. 70% of all the questions are about trump. he says hey, listen, i'm not a lawyer. i'm a business guy. i'm a governor. i'm looking to define mineself. why won't you condemn trump? why won't you support him? >> i'm trying to run for president. why are you asking me about the other guy 70% of the time. it's almost as or committees straighted as the ignoring of the hunter biden stuff. it's that we are going to get any other contender with or without talent or esteem and momentum and all we are going to do is ask about do trump?

>> ainsley: what is the best thing vivek ramaswamy supporterring trump and being fair to trump. >> brian: possibly. >> ainsley: or mike pence like he is saying in his book the president said "oh you are too honest, mike." now mike pence has it. shirts that says too honest. >> steve: is he making money off of it because he needs to raise a bunch of money. it it's one of two ways or the chris christie things. >> brian: there it is. imagine getting a job as model and only want you up to your chin. good news you got the modeling gig. >> ainsley: you look great. let's cut you off right there. >> steve: how do people feel about being a hand model? >> brian: that's true. >> ainsley: i love hands. i'm fascinated with them. i could pick my dad's hands out in a lineup. i know a lady who has the prettiest hands and i would love to have her hands. sounds crazy. >> steve: i did a story about a hand model she takes care of them. wears gloves on them.

the hands are her bread and butter. >> brian: never tho words i nevr thought i would hear ainsley say i love hands. >> ainsley: learn something every day. >> steve: all hands on deck because it's time to talk about the battle of the billionaires. a couple of months ago that a it was a smack down between the two billionaires mark zuckerberg who is at meta, facebook and elon musk who is at the formerly titled twit early and now it's called x. they challenged each other to essentially a cage fight. and as you can see, they have been preparing. but the question is is this real? is this ever going to happen? we shown. so and it sounds from over the weekend like they are talking like we could be getting close. >> ainsley: why do i feel guilty for watching this? if i watch like the battle of the geeks is what they were calling it. mark zuckerberg is only 39 years old. he has been practicing. he wants to build the octagon in his backyard.

>> steve: he did. it's driving his wife crazy. >> ainsley: yeah because it's ruining the gas. elon musk is 52 years old. doesn't have time to. >> steve: elon musk has 50 pounds on him and taller too. >> ainsley: about being lean and quick. >> brian: who is what elon put on x. lifting weights. preparing for the fight don't have time. >> instead of am. i think it's am. at least you got x right you didn't call it the roman numeral 10. >> brian: thank you. hear is he on 0. i just bring them to work and then zuckerberg responded on threads i'm ready today. i suggested august 26th when first challenged but he hasn't confirmed. not holding my breath. i might as finish. zuckerberg's must live on streamed on x all proceeds go charity and zuckerberg came back shouldn't we use a more reliable platform that can actually raise money. i will say this.

evidently, musk has got. >> here is another am one. >> brian: going with wwe is my fighting style. i heard he has neck and back problems. >> ainsley: he might have surgery. do you think he is saying that doctor, please, i need the surgery. >> brian: i might need surgery or fight in the octagon to the death. one or the other. >> ainsley: his mom says he doesn't want him to do. >> brian: does a billionaire answer to his mom? >> steve: absolutely. you never stop answering. >> ainsley: she is the former model. >> brian: then she should. >> ainsley: exactly. probably a hand model, too. >> brian: not just to the chin mark. >> steve: this is what i'm talking about zuckerberg is a 5'7". elon musk is over 6 feet. elon weighs. >> steve: i saw something else yesterday that said elon weighs 250. now he is down to 187. and iq. >> dana white put the iq up

there dana white is one of the people said this is absolutely real. talked to both men. >> steve: talked about doing it at the coliseum in rome. >> brian: how do you do that? 's overgrown. you can't get anything going at the coliseum in rome. >> steve: that's where they were talking about doing it. >> brian: i was just at the it coliseum in rome. >> steve: they is a lot of scaffolding. >> brian: you can't do anything in rome. >> steve: they wanted to do it at the coliseum. >> brian: they should know. >> ainsley: no date has been formally agreed upon. proposed location is ufc apex in nevada or the vegas octagon or rome. this is the first time i have heard of the coliseum. >> steve: i know. stay tuned. let's see if there is a battle of the billionaires. we it be an actual battle or pillow fight? >> brian: open up with lynns chasing christians which is the last time they tried that? >> ainsley: no. the remember one guy tried to carve something on the coliseum and went to prison for a few

years. i don't think they will allow any fights inside the coliseum. >> steve: are you talking about the tourists he didn't go to prison. >> ainsley: charged, fined. >> steve: got in trouble. >> ainsley: not allowed to touch the walls of the coliseum. >> steve: pardon you or girlfriend's name. >> brian: could be ex-girlfriend could be embarrassing. fights in pompe look to have it right where that city was covered by volcanic ash. >> ainsley: and change his name to maximus. >> steve: there you go. coming you up on monday. a far left new york city councilman wants ice cream trucks to stop using gasoline powered generators. small business owner thinks that's ridiculous. is he going to join us with his truck on fox square if it stops raining. >> brian: chinese and russian warships conducting drills near alaska's coast. how skiing significant is this threat? how the u.s. responded next. >> ainsley: plus today is

>> one thing i would add to the brazen russian chinese projection of power against us there is a real domestic component here. vladimir putin has spilled inorder nante amount of blood and treasure in ukraine and is suffering from domestically. >> this is a way to show that russia can go toe to toe main united states main ally china. russia wants limitness. china is not giving russia what it needs. minister in north korea begging for artillery in the united states it puts premium on intelligence community to provide indication of warning of russia and chinese attempts to project this sort of power and then we need to be there, understanding there is an opportunity cost as dean noted, we can't be everywhere. but we need to be there to defend our home front. >> brian: dean, what kind of message would it send if the

president of the united states starts meeting with the armed services committee's chairs and say listen, we are going to need a major boost in our military budget. we're going to start to get equal again or be on route to get equal again with the sides of the chinese navy and start flexing muscles a little bit. showing we are ready for this fight. we seem to be sending the exact opposite message. >> well, when you consider that at this point our shipyards cannot produce a new warship in less than six years. when you consider that the chinese have literally hot up and running shipyards, churning out the kind of ships that appeared off of our coast and we don't have the budget or the industrial capacity. i certainly hope the president does that sort of meeting. but i hope he doesn't just say hey build me some more ships. let's talk about building in the industrial base necessary to sustain such an effort. >> brian: dan? >> dean is right. it's about our deference industrial base. and that's one of the things

that we have learned in the where in ukraine is that we haven't been able to provide ammunition and other military equipment that ukraine so desperately needs without risking what we need to provide for taiwan or for other contingencies. that's something that the congress and the bipartisan fashion with the administration needs to get to work on. >> brian: by the way, china has cut off ukraine and their krohn purchases, they need america to step up. ukraine would actually buy them. we should just make them. and we know that russia last night hit ukraine sensitive sites with 70 separate drones. we do not know how many they knocked out of the sky. important information. dan and dean thanks so much. 2020 vision in 2024. bracing for the biden-trump rematch in the next election. what do voters think about a potential repeat race? we have a panel. long island castle and hotel owner wants to take in illegal immigrants. but he says new york city leaders won't answer him.

right. we go two out of three, doug does not. doug, why not? >> i just don't see either of these two have a clear vision for our future. in one sense if you are going to be a part of our future, you need to be alive, that speaks to the democrat. and with president trump, when you have so many indictments, you have had more indictments in the last not indictments but more charges in the last six months than tom brady scored touchdowns in his last two seasons combined, you have got a big obstacle to overcome. >> well, there you go. sammy, doug just mentioned you have got to be alive. you have got to be concerned about joe biden's age. what else concerns you about joe biden. >> well, the war in ukraine concerns me. i am a veteran, but i am antiwar. and i believe this ill conceived war in ukraine cannot make us stronger. it made us weaker.

i'm curious to see if joe biden is going to survive the primary. i mean, i'm taking a very hard look at robert kennedy right now because i don't think joe biden, our president is no longer in charge. >> steve: noreen, you are a republican, what's your main concern about donald trump if he were the nominee again? >> well, first of all, i just think you can actually be president while in jail not that we expect that on the trump side of things. look at that indictments 400 or something charges. most of them are erroneous and i don't think that will be the case. we have to remember this is a man who saved us once and i believe he is divlg to do it again. do we have a run of a lookout of candidates to choose from on both sides? i you would suggest no. it takes someone really powerful and successful to turn this country around. and in our case, that is donald

trump. >> >> i asked you though, what is your concern about him as the candidate? >> my concern is about donald trump are zero. there are no concerns. all of this that he is going through right now is once again the democrats being terrified of him and distracting away from their corruption and all of their issues that we just continue to put under the rug. >> doug, one of the things you told one of our producers who talked to you yesterday on the phone was that when you look at trump and you look at biden, neither one of these guys could be hired at any other job. what were you talking about? >> i stand behind that if you look at the age of president biden, and some of the baggage that he is carrying right now, i don't see any major corporation saying hey, let's hire this guy. with president trump again, the baggage he is carrying, the fact when he was in private business,

he lost over a billion dollars that he just walk away from. the fact that he is having to pay off a porn star. the fact that he has got all these different items that just everything listing up from his past, i just really question whether or not he would be employable outside of running for a general election for the president of the united states, which is, by the way, the most important job in the world and we have so many great candidates out there that also understand economics. they also understand the military. they also understand social services. i just don't see president trump being our best option right now. >> and, sammy, you mentioned a moment ago, you are thinking about supporting r.f.k. jr. is he along shot. do you think there is a chance he could win the democratic nomination? >> no. and that's why first question i thought was going to be a biden-trump re rematch i raised my hands, the democratic party is not giving him any traction.

it's unfortunate. joe biden has not, in my opinion has not been a good president for us. look what is happening on the border. especially over $100 million spent on the ukraine war. we could have solved the border wish a third of that money. i have my concerns. i mean, at the end i think the democratic party is going to coalesce around joe biden. but i hope that, you know, we give roberts kennedy a good -- i'm not supporting joe biden this time. >> steve: noreen, i will give you the final word. i understand your primary concern this election. your agenda item, number one is law and order. and that seems, you know you are not alone in that. >> oh. i'm not alone. my mom went shopping the other day and watched three men fill up three bags of items from a particular corporate store and when she was approached by the

>> after visiting the border i come to understand the open border policy is just a way of funding a multi billion dollars drug and human trafficking operation for the mexican drug cartels. >> i witnessed this dystopian nightmare of this uncontrolled flow of desperate humanity crossing the border and converging here because of misbee gotten policies. >> ainsley: well, in his new document trirks r.f.k. jr. is

slamming president biden's open border policies, including halting the construction of the border wall. chris clem is retired border patrol agent in huma, arizona and he spoke with r.f.k. jr. in that documentary and he joins us now. good morning to you. >> good morning, ma'am. thank you for having me on. >> thank you for coming on and kudos to r.f.k. jr. for going down there. i watched the entire special. and did you an excellent job. it was really eye opening. you talked about how when biden signed that executive order, no more wall. it really put a stop to so much more. not just the wall. tell the folks at home what else that did to the border. >> well, you know, thank you for bringing that point up. it's exactly right. when the wall system, which is what border patrol agents working under included not only just the construction of the wall, it was the technology, the infrastructure, the lights, the cameras, the access roads, all of that was part of a big package that leadership and border patrol agents like the last few years had put those requirements forward. when that was halted that put a

strain on our resources and made opportunities for the smugglers to continue to exploit people. so, yeah, it was a big hit. >> ainsley: snowed no walls no roads no technology censor equipment. something was shocking to he movement i know there has been controversy around the rape trees. they showed with a drone rape tree. he interviewed the people said the morning after pill was all over the ground where they will assault children or women or anyone who is alone and then give them that pill so that it ends a potential pregnancy and then when he went to the health clinic and interviewed that lady and showed the rooms of where they interviewed the children who have been assaulted and the youngest victim that she has seen was a 10-year-old little boy? >> yeah. that's the horrible part of people being exploited through lack of policies, lack of consequences, smugglers taking advantage of what is happening. yes, that's real. that's been going on for a long time. when you add the numbers up of what we have been dealing with you are talking 1.5 million.

1.2 million we continue to see a rise in traffic today. that's what's getting through and that is what is happening. that should be a concern for everybody. it's tough enough dealing with just adults and mass flow of migration. add children to the mix being assaulted. all those things are facts. and that's' what's great when you come down to the border and meet with people like myself but most importantly meet with community members, community leaders, business leaders, the healthcare officials, all that they are going to tell the same story because we have been living this and they have been living that anyone who wants to come down and hear and come down with eyes open and ears open and from an angle of compassion and common sense, you are going to find the truth down there. so, it was a good visit. >> ainsley: his was from a humanitarian effort he said. we just can't do this to our children. yuma hospitals lost $27 million covering the cost of illegals. mayorkas, one supervisor said mayorkas came down there and said i'm going to fill in nine of the 11 gaps in your wall. he said 18 months later we have

seen maybe 50 feet be completed at this point. and then r.f.k. jr. says if i am president, when i am president, he says, i will secure the border. chris, thank you for all your efforts in helping with this. i watched it on youtube. i encourage our viewers to go check it out. thank you. >> thank you. >> ainsley: you are welcome. hand it over to carley for more headlines. >> ainsley: hey, ainsley. 99-year-old trucking company yellow is filing for bankruptcy and closing its business. comes after the company fell victim to mounting debt government loan and standoff with labor union. the closing means loss of 0,000 jobs. barbie raking in $1 billion at the worldwide box office two weeks after its release. >> i'm coming with you. >> did you bring your roller blades? >> i literally go nowhere without them. >> barbie director greta gear
