all of this because i need to know. we're now, the duffys are realla fox news alert. the duffys are considering getting a chicken coop. which -- pete: as you should. rachel: frightening to me because i'm deathly afraid of chicken, but skip says i can get a coop, never have to see them, and they'll never get out of this beautiful coop -- [laughter] pete: never, ever, ever -- rachel: anyway. pete: because chickens never escape. rachel: but he said the children and sean have to love the chicken. we're going to talk more about this -- will: i think that's more of a cnn-style breaking news alert in that it never met the moment, and it feels like it's been teased for a year. you've been talking about getting economickens forever. forever. [laughter] rachel: i've been talking about getting a flag pole, and it happened. pete: she's been talking about bees -- rachel: and that happened. we're trying to match the farm vibe of the hegseths.

pete: you guys are doing it. will: well, while we're often on camera having these conversations, they do reflect on kamala harris and having a little more joy in our interactions. the weird thing is she's calling for this as she prepares for her debate, and as a rachel said, the meanest spice shop in america. [laughter] here's kamala harris. >> what's the one thing you want to really get across to him? >> well, there's a lot but, look, it's time to turn the page on the divisiveness. it's time to bring our country together, chart a new way forward. rachel: every presidential campaign has an advance team. like, did they -- this clearly is not a mistake. this was a purpose -- pete: of course they chose this place. hay chose the come biest, coziest place she could conceive blow go where all of the owners and the staff are 1000% libs why

it publicly. this shop shop is in pittsburgh, right? if they knew exactly -- and they have a web site. and one of of the tab is the is about republicans, okay? if this is how they feel about potential republicans as customers. rachel: okay. pete: on their web site, and i quote: going forward, we would still be glad to have you as customers, this is to republican, but we're done pretending the republican party is embracing. threats to democracy are anything other than the risks they legitimately are. if you need us to pretend you are not creating the hurt, in order foryou to continue being our customer, i'm sad to say you might be happier elsewhere. rachel: so don't shop here. pete: unless you bend the knee. her advance team knew precisely -- again, she's in her hotel room for a bubble, they escape for five minutes, a super friendly place where they take

one question. i mean, the whole thing is carefully curated so she doesn't have any unexpected momentsal all. rachel: the trump team respond today this crazy vent, that the you would say you want to talk about unity and their response to it was, sorry, kamala, scary spice is already taken. [laughter] mean spice is already taken. i don't understand. this is the strangest event -- the i've never heard of anything like this. pete: really? rachel: i mean can -- pete: trump went to a bodega, random places all over the country. they sent her exactly where she would be comfortable, around fellow rump-hating libs. -- trump-hating libs. rachel: i get it that she goes there, but then to talk about unity at the meanest spice show shop many america -- will: well, i don't know that she went will there to talk about unity. pete: she got a question on it.

will: my point is -- pete: her question wasn't about unitucker her answer was. will: right, but this is a reflection of her being able to think the improvisationally hawaii's the a answer she comes up with in that environment. so buckle up for tuesday. pete: by the way, this is how the leavitt thinks. yes, we need to end divisivend. and you know how we do that? everyone needs to think like us. [laughter] rachel: heart. the thing i've learned the most doing the real world was the myth of liberal tolerance. there is no tolerance unless you agree with them. true. if we'll will we'll see more on tuesday in the debate. meanwhile, a big endorsement for kamala harris, or former vice president dick cheney has endorsed kamala harris, and this is what she has to say about that endorsement. [inaudible conversations] >> dick cheney has endorsed you -- >> actually, i'm honored to have their endorsement. and i think that what they both

as a leaders who are well respected are making an important statement that it's okay if not important to put country above party. i'm honored to have their support. it really reinforces for them that we love our country, and we have more in common than what separates us. pete: oh, boy. that was a stem winder. that was actually a very typical word sal. she said absolutely nothing. rachel: absolutely, i thought she said something very profound. pete: really? rachel: i do. she said that her and her party and her campaign have a lot many common with dick caneny and liz -- cheney and liz cheney, and that is true. they are both pro-or around what. [laughter] these are the neo-cons. these are the establishment. dick cheney no longer is part og contrast was i'll let you listen to it for yourself.

donald trump talking -- well, first he talked about war. he said if you're looking for a party that's for peace, he talked a lot about how the neo-cons want war because it makes money for the military industrial complex is a profit-making business. and then he also talked about the democrats that he has supporting him. listen. >> working with robert f. kennedy jr., you know -- [cheers and applause] you know bobby. rfk jr., that was a meaningful endorsement. that was a great endorsement. we'll take on the corruption at the fda, the cdc, world health organization and other institutions of public health. we will establish a panel of top experts to investigate what is causing the decades-long increase in chronic health pops and childhood can diseases including the auto immune disorders, autism, obesity, infertility and much more. of and bob by's going to be very much involved in that.

will: so i find this cheney endorsement really fascinating. on one level i don't understand -- i guess i can understand a republican who doesn't like donald trump can't get over that. i know people like that in my life. but what i don't understand is that carrying you all the way over to an endorsement of kamala harris. pete: yes. will: like, everything you've ever stood for in your life and believed is pretty much the antihe sis of what is believed by kamala harris. you're talking about the furthest voting left senator in the united states senate. an open embrace of socialism. and so go all that way just says to me -- it really calls into question the awe awe then i thinksty of your supposed principles up million this poin. more interesting is the scrambling of political lines. everybody always acts like trump's far right, you know, and they see politics on this, like,

spectrum. a binary, right? a straight the line, far left, far right. and i don't think that's the way politics is. i think it's more circular, more nixed, and that's never before been more obvious that n -- than in 2024. you have rfk, tulsi gabbard -- rachel: elon musk. will: at least people who have been self-described as left in the past embracing donald trumpment and on the other side,kick cheney, adam a kinzinger -- rachel: liz cheney. will: and there's more republicans who have gone the way of kamala harris. and it's just a scrambling that is worthy of deep analysis. pete: right. will: there's this one, the left has dick chain nicker bill kristol, google, raytheon, citibank, the cia, the fbi, pfizer -- rachel: yes, yes, yes. will: big pharma -- pete: on the political end, the heft has all the neo-conservatives who temporarily mask themselves as

conservatives, and a lot of people were seduced by this idea that you could remake nations in their own image and ignore human nature. and if now they've my gated over to the utopian party, which is the democrat party. so they've -- rachel: that's a very ideological. i think there's also a -- pete: it's all trump hatred. rachel: also these are people who, the cheneys, their legacies are tied up in -- pete: sure. rachel: -- nobody talking, telling the truth and also the money making that's being done, that's happening through weapons sales. raytheon, you mentioned that -- pete: that ideology is tied to globalism, no doubt, investment in international institutions that reflect back on them and they get to say this is when america exported free can.com to the world. they also hate trump a9 lot -- can -- a lot. if imagine it was 2004 and you were told the republican candidate will be endoeds doered by -- endorsed by robert

kennedy. that's how much trump has overturned the apple cart. and it isn't about left-right at all. trump has tried to focus in on what benefits our own country, and dick cheney and others are more interested in what the world thinks about -- rachel: and what lines their pockets. will: this was darth darth vadar, literally, and it made movies with christian christian bale about him. pete: i would love to to know what she said about dick cheney back in the day. now i'm honored to have dick cheney's support, what did she say about him just five years ago, ten years ago? rachel: it's clear the republican party is donald trump's party, it is no longer the party of the bushes and the cheneys, but i will say this, i am now believing that dick cheney is darth vadar and now they like him. this is just such a -- will: all right, let's turn now, or we have some additional headlines to get to.

a colorado state trooper is recovering in the hospital after he was hurt many a shootout on a highway yesterday. corporal ty similarcox was sitting in a marked car in the median when a passenger car opened fire at him. police say a man got out of the car after it pulled over and fired9 into the trooper's windshield. that's when officers say simcox got out of his vehicle and shot and killed the suspect. israel closing a border crossing with jordan after a gunman killed three people there earlier today. the idf says the suspect entered the crossing from jordan and opened fire on israeli troops. all three victims were israeli civilians according to israeli officials. the suspect dying in a shootout with idf troops. your jordanian officials say they're investigating. more than 100,000 people protesting in france yesterday after president emmanuel macron's picked conservative politician and the country's new

[laughter] eagles' fans have a, or quote, propensity to start fights. next on the list, dallas cowboys' fans for 100% bragging -- pete: correct! will: pittsburgh steelers round out the top five. pete: i don't get the raid aers hate. rachel: you notice the peakers aren't on there. they're so nice. pete: passive aggressive -- rachel: that's minnesota. pete: it's worse in minnesota. i've -- rachel: i've never met nicer people hand in wisconsin, i'm

sorry -- will: tejas means friendship, the original word for texas. rachel: oh, i thought it was bragging. will: the friendliest place in america -- rachel: i actually like texas bragging. i like a state that thinks it should be a country. pete: you should have heard, i was somewhere yesterday where there was a lot of dog on texas. will: really? if. pete: it was in tennessee. will: that's cool. pete: there's no texas without tennessee. will: i just want yo you to know this hatred runs one way. we don't think about you. [laughter] pete: we think about you, and you wouldn't be here without us. rachel: texas is living friend-free in tennessee's head. will: we appreciate tennessee the, we actually do. some young people have now planned micro retirements. this starts in your 30s. yeah, heir taking money out of their 4011ks, even if it

impacts their retirement later in life, they're doing it now. so 311-year-old dana -- said the following about doing this and then going to hike the pacific coast trail. if i keep working myself to the bone until 60 years old, i might physically never be able to hike the 26000 miles mexico to canada trail. we would rather prioritize the experiences and spending our money and time that way. i kind of -- there's, i'm not dismissive of it. there is an argument. i'm physically capable, i want to do these things. but i think you also have to understand delayed great9ification too, and you are making a sacrifice to the basically how long you have to work later many life. rachel: i read the article, and it was fascinating. 9 what are they doing exactly? if apparently, taking a year off of a decade just to take the it off. and then what the financial experts are saying, okay, well, this is what you're forgoing many 401 and savings by not working for that year.

and i mean, it is interesting. i think the younger generation is much more about, like, work-life balance, and they're about a having this experiences versus the money in the bank. and the question is, will they regret the later or will they cherish those memories of, say, hiking trail for 26 concern. pete: i can't wait to be a grouchy old man -- rachel: you already are. pete: morph into it mean more. take your micro-retirement, just add a couple of years at the tend -- end of your life when you're pump if of. ing a -- punching a clock. it's one or the ore. you don't get to -- unless if you are really successful and you can just take a year off -- rachel: these are not financially wealthy, independent people. those are people making a very conscious choice. and you say,? will: i'm not a grouchy old man.

i'm interested. pete: really? you're going to announce your micro-retirement? that's the dumbest thing -- will: i'm a little past the micro-retirement age. pete: president micro-retirement? you want to take a -- rachel: this is the debate. pete: i can yell at him all day long. will: and he doesn't come off as a jerk. i think he's a jerk. how to do you feel? look how aggressive he is right now? about the gap year. really passionate. knife handed me and all of it. i hi i just won debate because america saw you as a jerk. pete: he didn't even make an argument. rachel: all you need to say is, i'm speaking. will: i'm speaking. pete: as i was. rachel: do that a little sassier. try that. will: you're right, the sass is the key. rachel: try it. own it. yes, queen. will: excuse me, i'm speaking. i'm speaking. rachel: you won.

♪ ♪ will: morning we're just two days away from what will likely be the only faceoff between donald trump and kamala harris when they take the debate stage this tuesday. our next guest nose all about a taking on trump, he's trump surrogate now and former presidential candidate mike huckabee. thank you for being with us, governor. first of all, how weird is that in one debate i asked the producers to just give me some history going back to 2020 to the, all, i mean, going tobacco to 2000, always three debates, always. there was two in 2020 because trump got covid, and so they canceled one. but that's shocking, that there's only going to be one debate, at least for now. one debate. >> well, and the reason for that is because kamala harris doesn't want a debate.

she doesn't want this one. she tried to weasel out of it by asking for rules to be changed just so she would have an excuse. the one good thing in all of this is it's an early debate, and that's porn because some of the debates in the past have happened after half the people had already voted in early voting and so, therefore, at lot of hose folks may have listened to the debate and said, oh, boy, did i ever make a mistake. this time at least the debate is going to happen prior to people going out to vote. that's a plus. reality is donald trump would debate every week if kamala harris would want to. it's not him that's holding it back, it's kamala harris and her people. they know she can't manage that stage very well with someone like donald trump. will: managing the stage is the big question of what it's going to be like on tuesday. you've debated donald trump, and i've said this morning, governor, i think it's not the easiest calculation for trump either because when you're debating a woman, you can come off as a jerk if you're too

aggressive. but he has to be the aggressive in prosecuting his case and exposing her. she, i think, i don't know what she's going to do because it's got to be substantive at some point, you would think. how do you see this playing out on tuesday? >> well, i think the smart play for trump is to do what he did with biden, let biden talk, let kamala talk. she does not know how to speak extemporaneously and make sense. all of us have seen her word salad issues. if trump can go in and instead of really attacking her, ask her questions, is ask her, you've been all over the board on fracking, or where are you now? you've been all over the board on the border itself, you were the border czar. explain to us what you did on the border and how well did it work. just go after a her with lots of questions because the moderators aren't likely to ask those hard questions of her -- will: right. >> so donald trump can do it, and he doesn't have to be mean about it. let her then talk. and if she does that, donald trump walks away with a huge prize. and having been on the stage

with him, one of the things i can tell you, he doesn't go in there with a level of being predictable. there's a reason he's running for president right now and i'm august to you, so there you go. [laughter] will: well, you're on "fox & friends," but you were also in israel this week. there's a lot going on in israel. there's protests, i believe, in israel asking for a hostage a deal. anyway, want to ask you, what was your takeaway being on the ground this week in israel? >> my takeaway is -- and i was there when the six hostages were murdered by being shot in the back of the head. here's the takeaway. there are a lot of stupid people both in america and around the world who think that hamas ought to be respected. there are a lot of couple people who think that a you can make a deal with hamas. you can't. israel has put several offers of ceasefire on the table. hamas has walked away from every one of them. they don't want a ceasefire. they want to let this drag out as long as they can.

look, i understand the frustration of the israelis. many of them just want it to end, and there's 120,000 families displaced. they don't have a place to be right now. they can't work, they can't live in their homes because of rockets from the north and prosecute south and from the houthis and the threat of iran. they want it to be over. but they can't have it over until hamas is destroyed and there is a real pushback. whey this administration doesn't put the i screws on iran, stop the money flow, is something that a i'll never be able to fully understand. will: well, governor, i don't know when you got back from israel, so i don't know if you were watching for the last couple of morning, but while you were in israel, i was in north west arkansas, and i've been talking it up for the last couple of days, how pretty it is and, to some extent, undiscover ised. i had a wedding in fayetteville last weekend, and it was awesome to be in your state of arkansas. >> it is a beautiful place. we hope people will come and enjoy it. it's a great place to do

business. we have this new golf who's doing g -- governor who's doing a great job -- [laughter] will: well, we wish her more luck hand the razorbacks encountered yesterday. oklahoma state. all right, governor, it's good to see you this morning. thank you. >> thank you. take care, will. will: okay. all right. we have more "fox & friends" coming up in just moments. stick around, it's about the economy, focusing on jobs, fewer than expected. gioia's ceo is going to join us to talk about economic probablies that are bad for america. ♪ frustrated by skin tags? dr. scholl's has the breakthrough you've been waiting for. now there's an easier-to-use at home skin tag remover, clinically proven to remove skin tags safely in as little as one treatment.

given you, you know? jesus said let the children come to me for the kingdom of god is for such as these. and, you know, there's an amazing industry that the harris biden administration has created, has expanded and exploded. there's two industries. the biggest industries in the world, child trafficking and drugs. trafficking and drugs. 75% of the victims are women, 25% are children. we're allowing ourselves, we're selling our souls. and this administration is working on power, control and greed. hundreds of billions of dollars in this. so, you know, we need to educate our children, we need to lift ourselves out of poverty, and this hope in education is the way to do it. and, you know, it's just horrific, what's been happening to our children. the u.s. is the biggest

president biden and vice president harris who likes to remind everybody she was the last person in the room made a decision to remove all troops, conditions be damned. and i think, obviously, that's going to be one of the big takeaways -- pete: yeah. >> -- you know, and the specifics of which, you know, i will leave to the report to be leased. pete: sure. >> but at the end of the day, you know, we lost 13 u.s. service members. kamala harris has never met with these families, never apologized to these families for their loss. and, you know, we just, obviously, memorialized the third anniversary of the abbey gate suicide bombing. and, obviously, we have had numerous hearings on capitol hill examining that incident along with this disastrous withdrawal. and i think in full detail and

with over 18 transcribed interviews of administration officials you will get a full -- pete: i look forward to seeing that. you mentioned conditions-based versus deadline-based. donald trump always said conditions on the ground have to be right. the biden-harris administration originally set september 11th as the deadline. they moved that date up to mid -- to late august, which leads to my last general question. based on what you've seen, did they know in were they aware of how bad this was going to go and they went forward anyway? >> i think very clearly there was not a lot of foresight or plan being on their part. i think they -- planning on their part. i think they made it very clear that no matter the conditions ors, they were withdrawing. joe biden wanted to be out of afghanistan by september 11th. the fact that he chose that date as some symbolic, you know, point was idiotic.

and, by the way, this isn't the first time he's used september 11th as a date to make idiotic decisions. he released $6 billion worth of funds to iran on september 11th, the greatest state sponsor of terror. so this is, you know, he has some bizarre obsession with trying to prove a point on september 11th. obviously, as we a approach the 23rd anniversary this week, from start to finish this was a disastrous withdraw -- withdrawal. pete: sure was. >> and i think the document is going to the bear that out. pete: we look forward to reading it, and we appreciate you doing the work on behalf of those lives lost and on a nation that' deserves to get to the bottom of it. congressman, thank you very much. >> thanks, pete. pete: you got it. let's check in with meteorologist adam klotz who's back from partying on football day with a fox weather football forecast. adam: and well rested and ready for another day of football and partying because it feels like
