♪ will: good morning and welcome to to "fox & friends" on this sunday morning, will cain, rachel campos-duffy and pete hegseth, the three of us back together -- pete: good morning. rachel: i always think about pete during the national anthem because he loves america, but we had a situation at our house where i put up some. political signs with my neighbors across the street who agree with us politically, and then somebody crumpled them up. pete: really? rachel: yeah. so the neighbors and my family decided that we were going to put in a a flag pole, pete hegseth style -- pete: nice. rachel: so that went up this week. an american flag and a different

flag if. pete: i need to see a photo of that. you could also electrify the sign. rachel: you know, i'm thinking about that. that's actually a really good idea. sean wanted it even bigger -- [laughter] it was, like, 30 feet. i'm, like, let's not turn the house into a used car sales lot -- will: you should get a ring camera. rachel: i do, but the front yard is on the road -- pete: it's up there. rachel: so i couldn't figure it out. will: it's the best brand you could ever get, you're america. [laughter] i think of america, and i think of pete, how did you just with, like -- rhode island ray -- rachel: because it's in his jacket. pete: i appreciate that, rachel, thank you very much. rachel: yeah. pete: we had a consultation about the flag pole, and i told her where i got mine from. it's a company in new jersey. rachel: i -- they did a great job. they're going to have a hard

time taking down my if flag pole. [laughter] will: this is what the election looks like as we sit right at two months, 50-something days million election day. a national polling average shows donald trump at 48%. 47% for kamala harris, that's a new york times-city yen that -- sienna college poll. overall a, national polling count matter as much as looking at battleground statements. and i think interesting this week, nate silver or's polling average as in battleground states gave donald trumping i believe, a 60% probability of winning the election. pete: it's razor thin. that's a brand new poll out of the new york times. 5% say they don't the know. heavy got 600 days, concern they've got 60 days, and they could be casting about right now, very close, some of the early states -- will, i caught a snippet of you yesterday not off the wall, okay, on the wall with charlie talking about the ways many which people are voting

early. i wasn't jealous to, i thought you did a nice job with. [laughter] will: thank you. i didn't think about you watching -- rachel: you didn't think he was cheating? will: it's not off the wall unless it's will and pete. let's go to the wall. pete: oh, that looks familiar. oh, i'll talk to will about that origin. will: we've got a big day on the on the election cycle, tuesday, september 10th, the one debate between kamala harris and donald trump. the number one issue is always the economy. here's what donald trump had to say on saturday. >> if i destroy her in the debate, they'll say trump suffered a humiliating defeat tonight. no matter what, vice president harris casts the tie-breaking votes that caused the worst inflation many in american history costing a typical family $28,000. think of that. yesterday it was announced that we lost 438,000 full-time jobs

in august. we lost almost half a million jobs in august. we lost 24,000 manufacturing jobs. from the moment we take back the white house from comrade kamala harris, i believe we are going to have the four greatest years mt. history of our country. we're going to turn it around fast. starting on day one, i will seal the border and stop the migrant invasion of our country. we will carry out the largest deportation operation of criminals in the history of america. [cheers and applause] we will defeat inflation, and we will make america affordable again. [cheers and applause] rachel: by the way, he was in -- that's our hometown, so a lot of my friends were actually at that that rally. i saw some pictures, it was the massive. if donald trump comes out mt. debate and he's able to keep the debate focused on 40 hose issues, he also a talked about ending wars and being a

peacetime president, those are the issues that he will win on. and he's got to be careful because what kamala harris is going to try to do and what she's in her, like, debate room doing for this past week is trying to find, you know, how am i going to get a yes, queen, moment, right? she wants that moment that makes her the full brat girl -- will: or make him look like a bully. rachel: -- and she owned him. that's what she's focus on. he's focus on economic numbers, on border and the crime, and he's talking about bringing down these wars. meanwhile, the new york times opinion columnist carlos lo saad doe said this is the challenge harris has. she will have to the the face off against biden, his shifting views. her support if possessor are eager to watch her prosecute the case existence trump in their debate, but when it comes to the biden years, harris is both

prosecutor and, reformer and contrast and continuity, and that's a harder sell. so that's interesting, who has the harder task at that debate. is it donald trump, as a you said, having to fend off, you know, her attack, or is it her that she's got an almost impossible task to do? will: i don't know. i think if this was a pregame analysis, it's really hard to predict. if she has objectively the harder case to prosecute as you just read from that quote. i just think i have become increasingly convinced, and i'm not dismissive of this farkts i'm just acknowledging much of the electorate votes on how they feel, not what they think. and when you push policies, you're appealing to how people think. and and that's true, you should. people should do things according to how they think. but should isn't what governs the world or, and people vote how they feel. and i think that when men debate

women, it is a very hard dynamic for a man. if i were debating pete, i would be empowered to be as aggressive as i want to be. i could interrupt you and just totally people would not feel -- they might, a lot of people don't like interruptions and cross-audiocassette tasker but i could go at you hard. but if i debate you -- rachel: i would kill you. [laughter] will: it totally changes the calculus. pete: can i moderate the debate between will and rachel? will: everybody feels differently about me if i start interrupting you, if i go too ayes, sir i havely at you, and all of a sudden i'm a jerk. rachel: i think you're right, and that's one e level. but there's another level. first of all, do you feel like we're, as a country, in a really bad state? most people do. most people are worried about where we're at as a country. and do you feel like his aggressiveness which he is just naturally like that -- not you,

donald trump -- you feel he's competent. he's a businessman. he's done it before. he got the economy back on track once before. we already know what works. or does she make you feel like she's just not ready? pete: or does she try to give you the joy jibes -- vibes? the oh, e -- let's turn the page vibes, the hope and change vibes. it has nothing to do with policy or being tied to biden's record. that's where so much of the fluff goes into the field. i think she has the harder tax because she's holed up in a holiday inn in pittsburgh studying for a week with a mock set and somebody wearing, you know, trump's they said boxy suit, trying to look like him. she knows she's going into the ring with mike tyson, she knows that. her goal so to pull out of him something that makes him look bad. will: he's done it. he did that with biden. pete: he did it with biden. and i think that's the approach

here, let her talk, point out her contradictions. the moderators will not, so keep pointing that at out many a way she eventually has to address what you're pointing out, but don't do it in a way that's overly aggressive. that's not easy. easy to say, not easy to do. will: the rules play into this as well, and pete and i are going to to break down the rules of the debate, the strategies and what's at stake. we're going to go off the wall at 8:20 a.m. eastern time. rachel: great background, that'll be interesting. pete: if president i think moderating a debate between you two would be really fun. [laughter] pick a couple of topics -- rachel: i'll do it, but then you guys have to to, like, box. pete: we have already done that. rachel: oh, that's all right. will: i'm trying to think what the subject will be, but let's keep moving with "fox & friends." pete: here's another one. i don't know how much we covered this stat in the program, it's a staggering one. it's a staggering one when you

consider what the city's up against. the new york post reported a couple of weeks ago that of the arrests happening in midtown manhattan, in this city, 75% are from illegal immigrants. so the crime that's being committed -- and, again, this show is not about new york city. it happens to be in midtown man hat tap, but midtown manhattan, what's happening here place out in other cities because of the policies that here. we're finally admitting hat illegals are causing a lot of the crime. so two councilmen are calling on governor hochul concern. will: republican and democrat, bipartisan coalition. pete: heir the calling on governor hochul to -- that's an important mint, it's one thing for republicans. it's the not working. here they are on "special report" yesterday. >> we believe we have public support. we believe that new yorkers are frustrated. they are seeing rising crime numbers where there are high

concentrations of migrants. whether you agree with the policy or not, if you're a resident of even the most progressive neighborhoods of new york, you are noticing there is more crime. and not just the crime aspect, but also the money aspect. this year it's going to cost us $5 billion to the house and care for this population. >> the services that are required by the migrants who are coming to new york city are immense. they're costing us an enormous amount of money. we just simply do not have the resources to keep on footing this bill. will: so the reason this story -- and i appreciate your point that we're not a new york city show. the reason the story, i think, has resonance beyond new york city is twofold. new york city and 75% of the rest is symbolic of something that's happening every where else. we talked about aurora yesterday, trend daying rag what in wisconsin. it's everywhere. and new york city often becomes, like, the shiny bauble on the christmas tree that lets you know, hey, it's christmas. this is a problem everywhere. pete: there's cameras

everywhere, we can show it to you. will: and the second thing is this is a coalition. it's not just those two congressmen, it's democrats and republicans serving in the new york city council who are saying, hey, governor hochul, you can do something, we need you to do something. repeal sanctuary status for new york city. look what's happening. and they're asking hochul to step in, you know, a power she has to save new york city. rachel: in colorado or, you brought this point up yesterday, in colorado, the governor of colorado a year, two years ago was bragging about being a sanctuary city. and so kathy hochul. and so now i think people, a lot of the things they were brag about have come back, and they're, you know, they've got egg on their face -- pete: for sure. rachel: common sense people knew they were bad ideas, but -- pete: there's a question for kamala harris in the debate, do you support sanctuary city? s on issue after issue after a issue we're all going to be sitting there going, what because. >> she actually believe?

that's the advantage for donald trump, pointing that out. we're going to turn to a few additional headlines starting with this. this morning police will continue the manhunt for a suspect who shot five people on a highway in southern kentucky yesterday. officers identifying a person of interest maimed joseph couch who they consider to be armed and dangerous. police say the unnamed suspect -- isn't he named? unnamed suspect shot the five from the side of the highway. seven people in total were hurt according to the mayor including a few victims from a car accident. or part of the highway is still closed as the scene is under investigation. and now to a fox wildfire alert, california governor began in somehow -- newsome -- gavin newsom issuing a state of emergency as the line fire continues to burn. residents are being ordered to evacuate as the blaze has burned more than 7,000 acres and hurt 3 firefighters. officials say the fire is at 0%

containment. the cause of the wildfire is still under investigation. and good samaritans springing into action to help rescue a man after his truck went into a florida river yesterday. deputies say hay responded to a call for a vehicle that crashed through a guardrail and into the river when they saw two people helping keep the driver's head afloat. they were able to free him before the truck sank and safely brought the driver to shore. officials say he was taken to the hospital and is in the icu. and now to college football -- will: here we go. pete: northern illinois upsetting fifth-ranked notre dame yesterday -- will: bad loss. pete: that's not good. plus, oklahoma state hanging on in double time to beat arkansas -- will: crazy game. >> some touches here inside the 15. pitch to gordon, running left to the 10, gordon to the 5, into

the end zone, touchdown, oklahoma! [cheers and applause] heir going to run it anyway -- [cheers and applause] [inaudible] pete: and horns up, as they say. will's texas longhorns after they dominated the michigan wolverines 31-12 in the big house. just a couple of big ten teams squaring off. a couple of big ten -- will: who? pete: ut's in can -- will: sec. big day. you should have been here yesterday, a lot of adam klotz in ann a arbor -- pete: i did see a little bit of that. rachel: unshaven. pete: was he? he knows that the look was good. will: a lot of go, blue, chants, but we knew. i watched college football all a day. i watched texas, then i watched that oklahoma state-arkansas game, iowa a-iowa state, then i watched colorado-nebraska, and then i watched clemson-app

state. you guys know my son is the kicker in high school football, and i just watch every kicker so much now -- the. [laughter] so many game-tie thing and game-winning -- iowa state's kicker, and we decided we need to form a national parental kickers' support group. i don't know how one doesn't exist. like, you have to -- it's the hardest, i think it's got to be one of the hardest positions in -- pete: i've always said i wanted to raise a punter. will: because everything is on that one kid in that one moment. pete: you haven't done anything all game, or but now -- maybe a couple extra points here or there, and you're not a football player, but you're on the football team. the whole game is on you, one kick. left, right, everybody's watching. rachel: -- charlie or you? will: i think it's harder on parents. pete: that's why you should have raised a punter. will: he because that too. it's tough. by the way, speaking of football, today, nfl.

cowboys-browns, big game today. not only for what's going to take place on the field, but in the if booth. tom brady's going to the make his debut. he will be the analyst here on fox. here's what he had to say about going into the booth. >> just what are your emotions like getting ready for tomorrow and your debut on fox? >> well, obviously, super excited. there's a little anxiousness, obviously. there's been a lot of preparation that's gone into it for from a lot of people, and it's been a couple year journey. i think the thing that's most exciting to me is getting back to the nfl football. >> doing this job becomes a lot easier when you've got great teammates around you, probably a lot like being a quarterback. erin andrews is phenomenal and tom, obviously, we know how talented he is. my question, have you had to get them doughnuts or coffee? any rookie hazing here earlier? >> they've been too good to me n. a lot of ways, i apple the

rookie. i want to come in here and earn it. i want to do my best for them and the fans. i want to provide a little bit of insight for everybody to make the game, everyone understand it a little bit deeper, and i'm really excitedded about that. will: so pete asked me during that clip, do you think he's going to be good? if i do. rachel: of course he -- pete: she was googly-eyed -- will: he's not going to be on camera a. rachel: what? if. pete: most of it is not on camera. rachel: whose determine idea is that this? will: you've got to watch the football game. rachel: put him on the field. [laughter] will: i think he's going to be good, pete. i think he's, i think he's thoughtful, he's original. i think he's pretty behave about saying things -- brave. rachel: are you trying to get an interview? will: one thing sports guys do, everybody does, to be honest, they just want to be liked. they don't want to say anything

controversial. [laughter] i think he's willing to say things. pete: i think you'd be good at that job. will: thank you. pete: sports play-by-play? if. rachel: i do too. work on the cheekbones -- will: that's so mean. i was going good on the compliments -- [laughter] rachel: i was just thinking about our debate, what if i just do, i'm speaking. pete: oh, she will. rachel: ray she will totally do that. i'm speaking. i think you will do a great job -- i think the you could do that job excellent. will: fox sports, somebody? if. rachel: somebody. well, from a well-lit stage to a trump method actor stand-in, we're going to take a look at vice president kamala harris', vice president kamala harris', quote, corps yo graphed -- for tuesday's presidential debate. ♪

it's time to bring our country together. chart a new way forward. will: after five days of, quote, high liquor yo graphed can debate practice sessions complete with a stage, tv lighting and a bob trump method actor. here to react is kaylee mcghee white with us this morning. thanks for being with us. kamala harris and donald trump, we were just talking about here in the show the different challenges they have. hers will be living up to expectations when it comes to the substance, husband will be about style and how he approaches a female presidential candidate. how do you see the prep for both candidates? >> well, i think that that it's clear kamala harris needs this debate more than donald trump, and if that weren't the case, i don't think her team would have agreed to do it in the first place. that should tell you something about their internal polling. she needs this debate because she's failed to prove how she's

different from joe biden, and she's even failed to prove how she's different than donald trump to the a certain extent or considering the few policies she's released are also trump powells. -- policies. i actually think it's quite telling that her team is already setting the bar low for her saying she's at a kiss advantage. i actually agree with hem on. that however, not because of the rules as they've claimed, but because as you guys know, when we're preparing for a panel with someone who's going to the challenge us on our belief or when we're going to have to do the challenging, that's a sort of muscle that you have to exercise regularly to be good at. when was the last time kamala harris was in a hostile environment taking challenging questions? will: right. >> probably back in 2019 when she was running for president the last time. she has not done this in four years. will: right. >> and there's also the disadvantage for her that the longer she's exposed to the public, the more people can dislike her. again, we saw this play out in 2019, and it seems to be playing

out exactly -- will: because of that, i would have disagreed with you about she needs this debate more than donald trump. i do think it's their strategy, seems undeniable, and i don't think it's a dumb strategy to keep her away from everybody, just don't expose her. don't expose her lack of spontaneity, her policies. so the debate is a moment where she's going to have to be exposed. in a way, i think it's more important for donald trump, this debate, because i think she'd rather stay hidden, but the polls are moving. that's why i think it's starting to become more important. the hide strategy the doesn't seem to be working as good as it did before. she was at a spice shop yesterday, and she says the number one thing is to move beyond divisiveness or, but yet this spice if shop, who is this spice if shop in pittsburgh, they published, hey, if you're republican, we're not interested in your business. very divisive stuff on their web site. it's a fascinating place to all

of a sudden go i want to bring everybody together. just not over spices, i guess. >> yeah. this is the party of joy, right? i can just feel it coming from this spice shop and from everyone else in the democratic party. and, again, it just goes to show that they're completely hypocritical on their message. they gowpt at the dnc and preached this message of unity, and even kamala highways eye -- kamala's saying it's time to move forward, unless you disagree with how viewpoint. this is actually, again, a disadvantage for kamala in that this is her only message. she has no policies to run on as of right now, so she only has this message of joy. and yet her own people are constantly undermining that. will: kaylee brought up the rules of debate, pete and i are going to the go off the wall on that a little bit later. thanks so much for being with us. >> thank you. will: a disturbing report reveals how christians are being, quote, deliberately

[laughter] pete: i mean, it's not hard to say, we condemn the murdering of hostages. >> exactly right. including an american hostage. pete: yeah. >> and so beyond that, look, we mow that harris' own dni has warned the american people that the islamic republic of iran is

behind this anti-american, anti-israel activity across the country which has put jewish lives in danger. and so the only thing need to hear from tim walz is complete condemnation of these pro-hamas if mobs. instead he's saying they're doing this for all the right reasons. what walz is doing is putting the lives of american jews like myself and millions of jews across this country at risk. pete: is this political expediency because he wants the support of folks in michigan, or do you think this is his truly-held beliefsome or is it maybe both, that it works both ways? >> well, look, kamala harris could have picked josh shapiro as her vp pick, and she picked this guy. again, a man who who has a track record of cozy relationships with the biggest anti-semites in this country, a man who's given,s again, $2 million to a terror-affiliated group. and so i think his rack record speaks for itself -- track record.

i think kamala harris knew if exactly who she was picking when she selected him as vice president, and this is a dangerous ticket for american jews. pete: well, the whisper campaign, at least to the activists in michigan, is that keith ellison, the attorney general can -- very radical attorney general in minnesota, might be on the short list for attorney general should they be -- i've heard that. >> i've heard this too, and i can't think of anything more horrible than what ticket is looking like and the people that they're surrounding themselves with. so truly for the safety and security of american jews and americans in general, i hope that we're going to have a trump administration in office because i cannot imagine how much worse things could get under this ticket. pete: well, thank you very much for being here this morning, great to see you. now i'm going to toss to it over to will who's got some headlines. will: we'll start here, a new york post report reveals the teenager accused of killing four in a georgia high school shooting texted his mother that he was sorry before wednesday's

inform you your social security number has been temporarily suspended due to the detection the of suspicious and unlawful activity. so you get a letter like that, and it went on, of course, to much more urgent language which was, like, hey, you've got to do the something. i don't want to lose my benefits. it's a complete scam. absolutely avoid scams like this. anything that triggers that sense of urgency, anything that you didn't is ask for, anything that didn't come in the mail that then you could verify independently, it is likely a scam. but it is not stopping everyday, smart people, you, me. we will all click this stuff because our -- it's just grabbing at our emotions. so how you avoid scams like these, well, delete yourself from the internet is one of the best ways to do it. when you remove or you get a service is, i mean, you can spend hours doing it yourself, you could use one of these services that does it as a subscription, they scrub you off the internet constantly. if the scammers can't find you,

you're likely not to get a scam. be vigilant of imposter merrills now not just by e-mail like jean got, but ones that come in your mailbox. and be alert of phishing attempts all the time. in other words, if a link comes your way, don't click it unless you ask for it. have good antivirus protection, it'll make those links do nothing. and then identity protection, you get an alert, look, we've been shopping for a house. that as a-- they ran my credit n. if two minutes i got ap alert, hey, did you apply for this loan? okay, i'm glad i've got identity protection. those are some things that are really going to help you. rachel: so if you got a letter like this, you say it's probably a scam, but you also want to make sure everything's okay, you should just go call the social security office, correct? >> you can. you can. i would certainly report it because when hay see a volume of this, they actually start doing something about it. rachel: good. >> but it's coming at us with such a level, it's really hard -- it's like a fire hose of

scams that are coming at americans. will: all right, kurt, thank you so much. pete: thank you, kurt. >> good to see you. will: for more tips, go to kurt the cyber guy. you can e-mail him like jean di- rachel: absolutely. smart lady. will: all right, more "fox & friends" ahead on this business she sunday morning. ♪ -- used to look good to me -- ♪ but now i find her simply if irresistible. ♪ the tempur-pedic breeze makes sleep feel cool. so, no more sweating all night or blasting the air conditioning. because the tempur-breeze feels up to 10° cooler, all night long. don't miss our biggest sale of the year, with savings up to $700 on select adjustable mattress sets. dry... tired... itchy, burning...
