their hard work. >> it is a historic night but we just want to make sure everybody is taken care of and get through this as whole as possible. >> it's not like i have anything against ford motors, stuff has to be equalized. >> we just want fairness for the employees. we helped build america. >> this marks the first time employees for ford, gm and the owner of jeep and chrysler have walked out at the same time. joe biden expected to deliver remarks this morning on contract talks between the uaw and ford and gm. >> we built america. we just want fairness. the top guys are making so much money, they're not making enough money and they want more. >> so much subsidy money coming from washington d.c. to these companies, inside electric vehicles, workers are saying when does it come to our

compensation. the uaw threatened to strike all workers but starting gradually giving them a chance to ramp up. >> a couple of things. i got a text message from a couple of dealerships. they had no cars and people were looking to buy. then they had no supply chain and then had the cars sitting without chips and finally have cars going, if this lasts, you're going to see empty lots again. then that's the sales people, the mechanics, the secretaries. these people have been beat up. >> like we heard with some of the protesters, the companies say if we pay you 46% more, that's a lot of money. if you have a lot of employees and have to pay that much more, they're worried about going bankrupt. >> grady tremble is going to join us live from detroit, an

interview with one of the ceo's. how dug in are they? >> mary barra will get the word out from her perspective. they are kind of negotiating separately but with the uaw that comes at you from one side and then ford came out, they thought was a better deal than the other two and didn't take it. >> clearly the white house sees it as a vulnerability. it's not often -- you think of other crisis and challenges, joe waits days to make an address. here he is coming out this morning. union bucket joe but things are not going the way they want it. >> it is important to point out, they have not endorsed joe biden yet and a lot of it has to do with the electric cars. it hurts the blue collar worker.

that's why chuck schumer used to say it is crazy to have the chain migration, we have to build the wall. and number two, they are al allowing it because of the electric cars, you are pushing electric cars. if i learned to work on one type of car and you're paying somebody to get the cars off my lot, that's a problem. >> no doubt. >> why, because they're not selling? it is a different skill set. >> different skill set. >> and the demand, the infrastructure across the country as we have seen multiple times now, ceo and transportation secretaries saying look how well they look and they realize it's not as easy. >> you love making the gas and oil companies horrible people. you realize there are people who work on the engines, you are hurting them. i don't think the democrats

think around the corner. >> that's the sacrifice. >> another story this morning, hunter biden criminally indicted on three felony charges for lying when he tried to buy the gun. said he wasn't on drugs and turns out he was doing crack cocaine every 15 minutes around that time period. we saw the deal blow up in court and didn't work out the way they wanted it to and now the special prosecutor has slapped him with all the charges and he could face 25 years in prison. >> remember the judge basically forced them to bring the charges, coming up against the statue of limitations. these are the few charges that can't be tied to the big guy, 10% joe. we had greg jared on earlier, saying he doesn't see a vigorous prosecution of this but an opportunity for the white house and justice department to say

we're going after hunter, we're being fair here. >> the president doesn't want to take questions. remember, he was on vacation and so afraid to take a question when asked about how do you feel about the devastate in hawaii, no comment. he finishes this speech in front of a small crowd and says this at the end. >> let me close with this. there's a lot more we could talk about. i'm going to get in trouble if i answer a lot of questions -- >> who he is going to get in trouble with. he's the top guy. who is above him? whose yelling at him but it sounds like somebody is. he's scared to make a comment about hawaii. >> you hear behind closed doors, people are afraid to deal with him because he has a volatile temper. i don't know how those worlds collides. a total of 28% of voters were not confident that the doj probe

into hunter biden's alleged crimes were being handled in a fair and unbiassed way. 22% not at all confident. over 50% have low confidence in the department of justice. biden can say whatever he wants of separation between the entities, no one sees it that way. >> they have earned the numbers based on the deal that was supposed to happen that didn't happen and now these charges. problem is -- interesting part of this, he plead -- he was willing to plead guilty to the gun charge in the previous deal and now when arraigned, how do you plead not guilty to the gun charges after doing so before. there's a lot of legal jeopardy there. but again, a potential for a plea deal and everything he has done to sweep things under the rug for the biden family and now in charge of how this plays out. former president donald trump

was on nbc nightly news and reacted to the hunter indictment, here he is. >> mr. president can you continue to say there are two systems of justice? >> i think there's no question about it. he had a plea deal, the deal of the century. the art of the deal. you could write a book on it. the art of the deal. and all of a sudden, that was broken up by a judge who was able to bring a judge actually to see through what was happening. it's a sad situation. nobody should be happy about this. >> so, president of the united states sits down with nbc and spends 22 hours a day ripping him and if he does something good, will talk about something else. does an hour -- >> by the way, president of the united states who hasn't spoken to us since july and is making the decisions. to me, it shouldn't be a choice. you have an obligation to

explain to us what you are doing and thinking. clearly he doesn't feel as though he needs to explain anything. >> or he'll get in real trouble if he does that with whoever -- slaps joe on the wrist and says don't do that. >> there's an article on foxnews.com, it talks about different paths to replace joe biden. and it talks about you need a well known candidate to step up. most likely, gavin knewsome. they're running out of time. under the rules, you have to declare in nevada by october 15th. then 14 more states have filing deadlines before the end of the year. we'll know something soon if that happens. >> the democratic party is at war with new hampshire. you gave up on new hampshire and

you said you don't want bernie sanders to be the nominee. and when hillary clinton was getting pressure from bernie sanders, you found out they were making sure clinton won. if i'm a democrat, i'm angry. i didn't have a real choice, a legitimate choice in the primary since hillary and obama. they are making sure rfk has to pay his way to be on the ballot. you have to pay to be on the ballot. >> why have we seen rfk's numbers go down. he was 20% and now 11%. >> he would do better in a republican primary even though he's not a republican. >> they're giving him the heisman and poll after poll shows democrats don't want it to be joe. but where are you going to go. he could go win all the delegates and go to the convention and bow out there, too. i'm not saying that will happen but it could. >> joe biden knows if he bows out, as soon as he says i'm not

running again, he becomes invisible. you think he has a low profile now. he doesn't want to say goodbye with a year left. but when i saw jamie raskin refuse kamala on the ticket next time around, something is going on. >> let's go back to the uaw strike against the nation's big three auto makers. >> about 13,000 walking off the job overnight. president biden is set to make remarks this morning. fox business correspondent is in detroit with the latest. grady. >> hey, that 13,000 workers about a 10th of the total uaw members that work for the big three auto makers. it's not the wide scale strike the uaw first threatened but said they could scale up if they choose to. this is the first time the uaw has gone on strike against all

of the big three auto makers at once. as we speak, workers are off the job picketing at a gm plant in missouri, ford plant in michigan and plant in ohio. the auto makers say they are negotiating in good faith. we know from ford and general motors, the latest offers from them include a 20% bump in pay and cost of living increases. ford says the uaw waited until just hours before the deadline to put forward a counter offer last night. the union barely budged from the initial demands. >> this strategy will keep the companies guessing. it will give our national negotiators maximum leverage and flexibility in bargaining. if we need to go all out, we will. everything is on the table. >> so this is not the full blown strike of nearly 150,000 workers

the uaw threatened at first but it is still causing disruptions for all three auto makers and the uaw says it could expand if they want to. take a listen to ford ceo jim farley about the offer they put forward and the counter offer they got from the uaw that is unrealistic in their view and could bankrupt them. >> there's no way we can pay people $300,000 to work four day work weeks. that's not a future. we're not going to do a deal like that. there's a different line, a line in between those two things. and -- but you can't negotiate with yourself. >> one of the reasons the uaw is striking in this way instead of calling a strike on all three of the auto makers at once is because they have a strike fund which they pay their workers who are striking out of.

this fund will last longer if it is a pro tracked strike and only picketing at certain plants at a time. the auto makers have warned there could be a ripple effect to the strike. if one plant shuts down, it makes parts for another plant, it could force them to close down another plant that receives items from those other facilities. so that is going to be something to look for if this strike lasts days, weeks or even months. >> coming up, interviewing mary barra. >> he's getting ready for that interview. >> coming up, announced tickets go on sale today. my book comes out november 7th how america got great. if you want to get tickets, sponsored by fox nation 2. new jersey and alabama right after the patriot awards and

then montgomery and then over to illinois and then michigan and then to pittsburgh is our number one market. did you know that? >> you told me that. that is awesome. my dad was just there sending me pictures. it is really pretty. >> i have done won. they're really good and by the way brian, this new book looks fantastic. teddy and booker t. >> how they worked together behind the scenes when america was segregated in many sections of the south to move us forward. not many knew about it. they knew about a famous dinner but didn't know how they used each other in a time that blacks and whites were not working together. they were extraordinary people but not many knew about their relationship. >> and wilson doesn't look too good. >> not at all. >> you did a lot of research and unveil more about their relationship. >> the tickets are on sale and

in nebraska, a train carrying toxic acid explodes in north platte yesterday afternoon. people in a four mile radius were evacuated and heavy was shut down. authorities say the fire is under control but they're monitoring the air quality as a precaution. look at this, new images shows serious overcrowding in tuscan, arizona. they have seen about 2,000 illegal crossings every day three days in a row. that situation unfolding as we learn at least 160 people on the f.b.i. terror watchlist have crossed the border so far this fiscal year. week two to the nfl, the eagles

still undefeated. sluggish start for both but the eagles offense started to click in the second half. >> third and four. there goes the ball, wide open. it is smith again. all the way for the touchdown. >> smith going 63 yards for the touchdown helping fuel philly to the win. those are your headlines guys. over to you. >> four turnovers and no defense. >> only brown had a meltdown even though they won because he wasn't given the ball enough. >> it's called a team. >> are you on his side or the other side. >> don't attack the coach because your team won because you didn't get the ball. >> he shouldn't be doing that. >> there's no i in team. >> good slogan.

>> a reckoning after teaming up with the black lives matter activist on a quote fat liberation campaign. >> okay. bryant was a university of virginia student in 2020 and accused a fellow student of referring to the protests as speed bumps only to later admit that she may have misheard the comments. >> pierce morgan joining us now, wondering why you picked this topic. >> good morning. by the way, there is no i in team but three eyes in winning side. brian taught me that. >> i never heard that but love it. where are my catches? he's already making $18 million. >> you can never have enough money. right brian, you know that? tell me about your new deal. >> for more, read -- i'm going to make the announcement. what are we talking about? >> got to say about this, what

is wrong with corporate america? why is corporate america on a suicide mission to enrage all of the people that buy their products? we have just been through the bud light thing. you choose the single person most guaranteed to drive people away from the product. and now we have this, somebody to promote your product who literally ruined somebody's life with a lie. that you think is the person you think should be presenting the best way for your company to go forward. >> you just answered the question. you have thought about this. why are they doing it? >> i think they get sucked into social media virtual signalling. only 20% of people are on twitter and those 10% make 80% of the noise and are extreme. these companies follow social media and think that's what we have to do. we have to find somebody like this to promote our soap.

but when you analyze what this person did, she ruined a student's life with a lie. and the idea that she is now promoting this product, with their endorsement is just to me absolutely extraordinary. corporate america get off social media and ask real people in the real parts of america what they value in life, what they stand for. and honestly they would be better off going down to middle america, going to texas, florida and picking people off the street who use dove soap and say you come and promote. it would do better than choosing somebody the moment you look at them, hang on didn't you do that to that poor student? >> corporations have been accused in the past and rightly so of going for the almighty dollar. they want to make the maximum amount for the share holders. are they going to profit from this? since when do you divorce yourself from profit. >> we know from bud light they're not going to.

we saw it with gillette. remember they went from saluting masculinity and men to saying all men are evil predatories until proving otherwise. 9 billion off the bottom line. >> you have dei initiatives and start to take over what the company prioritizes. >> too many woke people running the companies at the woke employees. >> they think the issues are more important than making the bottom line, making a dollar. they think eventually they will. >> one of the most successful products in america are the ones that don't do this. just walk down high street and look at the most, dunkin' donuts, mcdonald's, they don't do this, they don't want to alienate half their customers. >> apparently he watched my

interview and he said to his people, he had hundreds of journalists around the world -- if morgan called i would do morgan. i quite like that. i'm going to put it on my answering machine. i'm morgan, i'm calling. >> he didn't apologize for it, right? >> it is an interesting story about our times. he was hugging and kissing all of the spanish female team who won the world cup and overjoyed and lost control. and he just kissed and hugged all of them but with the captain, they had a conversation and grabbed her and kissed her on the lips. he shouldn't have done it. he got carried away. i interviewed him for over an hour. and it really comes down to this, is what he did a crime? is it even remotely approaching a crime? is it sexual assault? he did it in front of the world's media. he didn't mean anything bad by

it. he accepts with hindsight he got carried away. the lady captain in concern is seen on the team bus later celebrating and laughing and joking. they're all chanting kiss, kiss. it is complicated. that's not to say she isn't entitled to wake up the next day after that and see all of the coverage, not about the women's team winning, which was amazing achievement but about this guy kissing her and she is entitled to feel a different way about it. >> what did she say? >> eventually flown here to promote my series on fox nation about interviewing criminals, serial killers. this guy has been treated worse than a lot of the people i sat down with for the series. that seem to be -- >> his kids, too. >> i think it's overreach. i sit down with some of the most

dangerous people in america, after having sat down next to brian repeatedly -- it is eight convicted killers. some of the most infamous people in america, all sorts of different types of serial killers and psychopaths. i think you'll be engrossed by the way they all try to convince me they are innocent and the real cat and mouse game going through their stories, can i unravel the truth and do they accept they are guilty. they are all going to rot in prison for the rest of their lives but it is me literally this close and i ask them the tough questions and sometimes they look at me and think i have about three seconds the get out of here. >> real quick, do you know -- if i told you this person was a librarian, can you sense there was something off about all of them? >> the moment i sat next to you here. i just realized you may be smiley brian kilmeade to the american people, i'm looking at

you, potential psychopath. >> somebody finally tells the truth. >> masquerading as a really nice guy. >> you sit next to him. go ahead. >> you really are a nice person. >> did you see him wrestle -- >> i was going to give you a kiss -- can i say by the way, fox news 10:00 sunday night. they're running one of them. it is a guy who is an insurance fraudster. basically everyone he meets, marys or touches dies and claims on the insurance. >> the attacks have to stop. pete is entranced with every word you said. >> someone is finally saying the truth about brian kilmeade. >> i have watched him a long time here. i'm going to expose the real brian kilmeade. that's the next series. ainsley --

>> i have so much material. >> even nicer off camera than on camera which you wouldn't think is possible. >> it is true. >> the complete opposite in fact. >> fox news alert. grady tremble is interviewing mary barra live in michigan right now after the auto worker strike started last night. >> we're leveraging all our facilities, that is why we have work, we have product, we have components and continue to maintain the warehouses for all our facilities. one of the things we did which i think is different than other auto makers, we designed power units, part of an electric vehicle. we are allocating those to plants that used -- build today still the internal combustion engine. that shows our commitment to take everyone along. that is why -- that's the position we're in right now. i have talked to many employees over my 40 year career, even in the last several years, i go to one to two plants a month and

job security is very important to them. the investments we have made and we need to make sure we have a strong gm to continue to make them is what is going to make sure we keep selling vehicles and building vehicles and people have jobs. >> you have dealt with a strike before, i think you're the only big three ceo dealing a strike back in 2019, not this gradual strike. what did you learn and how worried are you that uaw is going to ramp up to a full strike of all members? >> first of all what i learned, no one wins. the employee doesn't win, the communities suffer. at general motors for every one job we have, it supports six other jobs in the economy. that's why we're at the table and need to get the uaw leadership back to the table to get this resolved. >> is this weekend an opportunity to kind of hit the reset button and say okay, we hear you. you are putting your money where your mouth is by striking but we have to get a deal soon because

this could get out of control? >> i would say i have already said that. we don't need a strike. the strike was completely unnecessary. we're ready to get to the table. we have a historic offer on the table and want to get to the last issues and problem solve and find a solution that is not only good for the gm team members but to make sure gm can sustain and have a future for the next 150 years. both need to be important. we need to make sure general motors can invest in new products to keep the jobs we have and grow. we think we have the opportunity to do that. >> my last question, they asked initially for 46% pay increase. you said you have to be around for the future. if you raised wages that much, what would happen to the company? >> again, it would threaten our ability to keep investing in strong project. if you look at the portfolio right now, i couldn't be more proud of the internal combustion vehicles, but also the ev's that we have in many plants now,

factory zero right down the street at springhill, tennessee. we're building another plant in michigan that is going to build battery electric trucks. we need to get back to work and make sure we have the investment to win in ev's and we're poised to do that. every day is important. >> mary barra, gm ceo. thank you. >> that was mary barra doing a live interview after the historic auto strike took effect at midnight. got a chance to hear the ceo's perspective. joe biden is going to address the situation sometime this morning. keep it here for the latest on that. hunter biden could face up to 25 years in prison, officially indicted on three felony gun charges after allegedly lying being on drugs purchasing it in

2018 and initial plea deal collapsed in july. matt whitaker, what do you make of these indictments and how real they are? >> it is good to be with you pete. these are real charges and as a u.s. attorney in the bush administration, i did this charging people with lying on gun purchase forms and possessing illegally. this is a long way from what they tried to do with this case, with the agreement. the diversion agreement was less than a smack on the wrist and now facing three felonies that come with jail time. it's not the full thing. there's the former corrupt practices act and the tax charges still out there, but we don't know how they are being investigated. >> that is a great point. what is the level of enthusiasm if there will be follow through

here. these are the only charges that don't at least if you set aside the secret service aspect that don't have to do with the big guy in this. in the last plea deal that fell apart, hunter actually pled guilty to the gun purchase of that, we see the timeline of how it unfolded, the purchase of the gun, throwing the gun away, and then ultimately, the revelations in the book that he's on drugs. but does that mean he can still plead not guilty in this case? >> yeah, this is a really good point. on the gun charges, he entered into a diversion agreement. he signed it, the lawyers signed it and prosecutors signed it. what happened at the hearing, there was a whole discussion about the diversion agreement and if future crimes would be ab solved or other crimes. and that is where -- since there wasn't a meeting of the

minds, i think the argument by the government would be that agreement is null and void. you walked away from it at the hearing and the judge is going to have an important role in interpreting if that agreement is in place and if the government could charge him with the same set of facts. but he didn't plead guilty to it. he didn't plead not guilty to it. he just agreed he wouldn't be a bad boy again. the question is was that a valid agreement and is it in place. >> i see. many in the mainstream press will say it proves there's not a two tier system of justice. what do you say to that? >> yeah, they were 28 days from blowing the statue of limitations on the gun charges and didn't want to charge the crime. they don't want to charge hunter with crimes. that is the two tiered justice. >> thank you for your time. appreciate it. coming up, play by play announcer kenny albert previews week two of the nfl on fox.

vermont and maine. even though the center of circulation is forecast in eastern canada, new brunswick or nova scotia, we're going to feel impacts from the massive storm system on saturday and eventually sunday it will move out to sea. it will be a quick mover. but we have rain in the forecast for the northeast creep nothing on sunday. so there's lee right there off the coast. 73° in new york and cooler temperatures we feel this morning and potential for stronger storms and even heavy rain for parts of texas and southwest. another cold front moving toward the upper midwest, starting to feel like fall. are you like a pumpkin spice guy? >> i'm a crisp in the air guy. i like that first moment in the fall. i love it. thank you. >> you're a pumpkin beer guy. >> for sure. new images showing overflow area in arizona and now street releases are taking place in an

effort to address the overcrowding. live in mission, texas, hey bill. >> hey pete good morning to you. these mass street releases of migrants are taking place in several areas on the southern border because agents can't keep up with the sheer numbers of people crossing our border. we want to show you what they look like. take a look at the video out of san diego, yesterday afternoon, three white unmarked border patrol buses start dropping off several hundred illegal immigrants on a sidewalk. you'll see masses of these people getting off the bus, some as far away from china and pakistan. some scatter within minutes but handfuls of them stand around on the street unsure where they are, where to go and what to do next. there was a remarkable exchange between a migrant and border patrol agent asking can i travel

to the sanctuary city of chicago without arrest? take a listen. >> are you free to go to do what you want. >> no problem if i go to chicago? >> you can do what you want. you're free. >> now this is also happening in tuscan arizona sector. take a look at this video from yesterday. this migrant family dropped off at a random dollar tree parking lot. this family didn't know where they were or where they're going next and the local sheriff says the mass releases to the streets are not fair to the migrants or the community. take a listen. >> people come from all over the country to smuggle here and endanger the community and citizens. we work united to combat that. then to find out yesterday that cbp is doing street releases as they call them safe, there's nothing safe about it. >> meanwhile here in texas, the

state of texas is trying to hold the line on their own without the help of federal government. this video out of el paso, the texas national guard continues to use razor wire and physical man power trying to block migrants in the middle of the river trying to cross into the united states enmass. you can see a different approach from the state of texas, very different from what the federal government is doing where just letting people in and mass releasing them. the border patrol union tweeted out yesterday that dhs officials are referring to the mass street releases as freedom runs and border patrol agents are told to prioritize processing and releasing the migrants over patrolling and enforcing our border. back to you. >> freedom runs? that is a first i have heard that. bill, real quick by the way, these are live look at eagle pass from our drone there of our fox flight team.

that exchange between the one illegal and the cbp, can i go to chicago, you can go wherever you want and do what you want. that is staggering, but what do we know about what is next. are they keeping track of these people, notice to appear, these freedom runs, where do they end up? >> so typically these people are released with a notice to appear on your own. they're going to have a court date but because of how backlogged they are, they are three or four or five years in the future. those people are not looking to stay in the border towns. they're going to travel across the country. some people probably heading to new york city. as this is just a non stop flow at the border guys. >> freedom runs. and that's what they call them. thank you for your reporting. really appreciate it. staggering stuff. still ahead, a full slate of games set to kick off on fox this sunday.

>> we are back with a fox news alert, the united auto workers are walking the picket lines striking against the nation's big three auto makers, about 13,000 walking off the job overnight in plants in ohio, michigan and missouri. grady tremble spoke with general motors ceo earlier this hour. >> what i learned in the strike, no one wins. no one wins. the employee doesn't win, the

community suffers, at general motors, for every one job it supports six other jobs in the economy. that's why we're at the table and the uaw leadership back to the table to get this resolved. we need to make sure we have the investment to win in ev's and we're poised to do that, so every day is important. >> that's the corporate side. this marks the first time employees for ford, gm and stellantis have walked out at the same time. joe biden expected to deliver remarks this morning. keep it locked to fox news for the updates. >> now back down to georgia, the wake for the warriors event is taking place to support wounded heros. >> joey jones is here again. hey joey. >> hey guys, listen, i came here for wake for warriors that gets us out on the water doing things we didn't think we could do. i was on the water surfing,

didn't know i could do that. tony and i share a connection, we recovered together. i was one of the first guys to visit tony when he got injured and see his smile and face here, it is great to see you. >> you too, brother. got to come out and be your peer. you taught me to push myself. it has helped me push myself. i'm glad i was part of this with you. >> i appreciate that. it is such an amazing experience to get out here. you guys have talked to me about it for a while. we have austin on a chair board. i think we're going to show you what it looks like for him. tell us what is happening right now. >> so austin is going to ride the chair, we're surfing, tyler is also one of our veterans that rides. he's our boat captain today. and austin is coming up right now. he's just sitting back waiting and we're going to try to get him over here right here where the wave breaks and drop down. you got it austin.

just like that. right there. >> that is awesome. so that's a little scarier than you think. >> it is higher than what you think. especially sitting or standing but that drop is a heck of a drop. >> when he got me out it a while ago, the drop scared me. >> that's the problem, some people go nose first if you don't lean back and just ride the wave. you're going to go nose first. >> austin looks almost peaceful right now. like he has a calm look on his face and that's how i felt with the engine and wave it felt peaceful. >> and you are focusing on you getting better. it doesn't have to be anything in particular. it doesn't have to be surfing or wakeboarding. you are working on focusing on being better. everything else around us goes away. that is why it is so peaceful man. >> how does it feel to be out here teaching other guys like austin to do this? >> i'm blessed to be out here. i met dave in 2012 and he took

me in. and to see you get up in two minutes and it took me two weekends to get up. helping you get up in two minutes was awesome. >> tony is awesome, dave is awesome. austin can ride the wave for a while. back to you guys. brian back to you. we're going to keep riding waves. >> thank you joey. that is awesome, i agree. good job guys and enjoy the rest of the day. meanwhile, wakeforwarriors.org. week two in the nfl. a full slate of games, including a show down between two young quarterbacks and falcons and parkers. kenny albert starting his 30th season with fox will be calling that game. kenny, great to see you. does it feel like 30 years? >> good to see you too brian.

it doesn't feel like 30 years. feels like the first game in 94 was yesterday. great to be here in atlanta. should be a great game on sunday. >> first off, when you look at the packers, jordan love seemed to step in like he was playing for years. >> history has repeated itself. aaron rodgers sitting in green bay and gets his opportunity. jordan love sits behind rodgers for three years and now gets his opportunity as the packers started. he played well in the win over the bears last sunday. i spoke to the head coach and he is so impressed what he saw from love not only in the game but over the last three years during training camp, pre-season, the amount of information he's taken in. sitting behind rodgers, so impressed with how he called the protections and setting up the offensive line and so much more. he's doing well and on the road

this week in atlanta. >> that's the 1:00 game. colts and textians. everyone has the h49ers in supe bowl already. your thoughts on the rams? >> they pulled off the impressive victory two years ago and they have about 40 new players who weren't on the team for that super bowl run. you know, it's certainly forehead coach mcviegh, he's integrating a lot of new players in the rams line up. 49ers one of the top contenders as well. i was in jacksonville for the colts and -- colts play this week. he'll go up against another one of the young quarterbacks. that should be a fun one for the fans to watch as well. >> giants fans can't get over how they were beaten by the

cowboys on sunday night. is this a must win against the cardinals? >> that was a rough one for the giants, falling behind and things snowballed against dallas, looking 40-0. it is a huge stretch for the giants. they play two games in five days on the west coast. they play the cardinals and then a thursday game against the 49ders but i think they can bounce back, going up against the arizona team rebuilding. daniel jones and barkley. good offensive weapons on the giants squad. we saw them make it to the playoffs last year. big stretch for them though with the two games out west in five days. >> i know your book is coming out soon and can't wait to read it. congratulations on everything. we'll have you back to talk about it. thank you. >> thank you brian. appreciate it. >> and guys, if you are looking for lawrence jones tomorrow, you know where he is? >> he'll be with us on "fox &

friends" weekend. the new co-host of "fox & friends," live from the colorado colorado state game, joining us with coverage of that all morning long 6:00 a.m. >> and we'll watch you four hours tomorrow morning and sunday morning getting ready for church. >> eight more to go. have a [shouting] >> bill: it went down at midnight. a historic work stoppage now underway for the first time, the uaw launches a strike on all the big three automakers at the same time. the repercussions could ripple through the economy nationwide. senator tim scott just unveiled his economic plan to get things back on track. he will join us live in a few moments on this and more
