"fox & friends" starts right now. have a great day.

>> steve: thank you very much, carley and todd. welcome to "fox & friends." 6:00 here in the east. anxiously is off. kayleigh is in, good to have you. >> kayleigh: great to be here. >> steve: welcome aboard. it is october 23rd, 2024. 13 days until election. will it all come down to pennsylvania? >> brian: new numbers show a shift towards republicans as president trump tells me he's all in on early voting. >> the main thing is you got to get out. you got to vote. and i'll be voting early. >> kayleigh: plus, when pressed on president biden's acuity, vice president kamala harris claims honesty. >> with not only sincerity, but with a real firsthand account of watching. >> brian: what? >> lawrence: fbi investigating

after intel leaked israel's plan to attack iran. why say this administration cannot be trusted. "fox & friends" starts right now. ♪ ♪ >> steve: okay. just 13 days until election day. and the vice president is heading back to pennsylvania while former president trump heads to georgia for two major events. >> lawrence: later this week trump travels to texas for a conversation with joe rogan on the number one podcast in the world. >> kayleigh: lieu custom lynnson is live in washington with more. lucas? >> good morning, guys. president biden has not appeared on the campaign trail with his vice president nearly two months going all the way back to labor day. former president barack obama and bill clinton who have been appearing on the campaign trail. as you mentioned former president donald trump will be in georgia today a state he lost in 2020 by less than 12,000 votes. back in 2016, two republican senators represented georgia, today none. according to a new poll from the atlanta journal constitution and

the university of georgia. still celebrating big win over texas, of course, trump held a slight lead over harris 47-43. it's notable though, guys, 8% of respondents say they remain undecided perhaps a reason trump is heading down to georgia today. trump will head to texas on friday to sit down with podcasting giant joe rogan who has 17.5 million subscribers on youtube and more than 14 million on spotify. trump will tape the interview at rogan's studio in austin, the largest city without a major professional sports team but i digress. trump spent the last two days making four campaign stops in north carolina, a state he narrowly won in 2016 and 2020, of course. in new hampshire, president joe biden sparking controversy when he said the following while attacking trump before correcting himself. >> i mean, so i know this sounds bizarre, it sounds like i said this five years ago you would lock me up, we got to lock him

up. [applause] politically lock him up. lock him out. that's what we have to do. >> there are no plans for the president to campaign with vice president harris between now and election day now 13 days away, guys. >> steve: wait a minute, i thought joe biden was going to do whatever he could to at the r when she was announced as the new nominee. apparentsly that means by not campaigning. [laughter] >> steve: indeed. thank you. >> brian: do you know who was campaigning barack obama, very angry out in the front, demeaning and rapping. >> steve: with eminem. >> brian: got him nervous, evidently all about him. and tim walz out there mocking elon musk. okay, guys, good luck with that plan. >> lawrence: to former president barack obama, someone with political acumen that can speak very well to the american people. >> brian: you saw how angry he was. >> lawrence: frustrated because she doesn't have the goods. he continues to say look, i

understand that you are struggling. you should have stopped right there. then he layers it on and says why are you voting for donald trump? if you just talk to the measure people, over 50% of them continue to say that they have benefited from the trump economy. and so you are asking the american people to focus on all of this other nonsense when they can't afford groceries on the day-to-day basis. it feels like 2016, it feels like they are dismissing people's concerns. and saying just focus on emotions, kayleigh. >> kayleigh: and with trump it feels like it's 2016. he is having these big, viral, meaningful moments. one of the best moments every seen from him on the campaign trail was in the barbershop with you to see him fluidly speaking with these folks at the barbershop. then you see him at mcdonald's which i think is one of the best moments i have seen in retail politics and then you see him go to the steelers game and comes after al smith dinner. heel turn where he is in western north carolina and putting

spotlight back on the people. micah dry, 7-year-old boy lost his life. his mom says he weighs a hero last words crying out to jesus. he put the spotlight on the forgotten man and woman. that's what he did in 16. >> brian: he went there twice in 48 hours. >> steve: he is also going to be going to texas. it's interesting, kamala harris is going to go houston on friday. >> kayleigh: why? >> steve: right, exactly. she is going to campaign on abortion. because, in texas, abortion is banned in almost all circumstances. and the hope is that she could possibly peal some of the moderates away from trump. no doubt trump is going to win texas. of the question is, clearly she is there to try help the senator. >> kayleigh: what are you thinking? >> brian: according to unnamed democrats the fact that she took off yesterday and not doing much today has them incensed. they don't understand it. >> lawrence: it doesn't make sense.

>> kayleigh: i would be mad. >> steve: no kidding. >> brian: things have changed when it comes to early voting. the numbers are really strong. a lot of people in the trump camp feel it's very encouraging for them. democrats have more. but republicans, especially went election day. already showing up especially in pennsylvania. i asked the president yesterday -- it's going to air today on my radio show. i said florida started with early voting. are you going to do that? and here's what he said. >> >> lawrence: okay. >> steve: we have got that sound bite. >> a big decision. >> you know, it's interesting. i really feel -- i'm very mixed. i have the old standard of the tuesday vote and all. a lot of people like to vote. and i'm really mixed. do you know the main thing to me you have got to vote. voting early, i guess, would be good. but people have different feelings about it. the main thing is you have got

to get out. you got to vote. and i will be voting early. >> steve: devote early. he voted early in the republican primary in florida over the summer. what's interesting about what is going on right now is so far in early voting, 17 million americans have already cast their vote. and initial indications are that the big article in the "new york times" this morning about how republicans seem to be turning them out earlier in a big profound way because the argument that republicans are making is, look, it's easy, it's convenient, and you don't have to gamble on election day. and by banking votes early, it's the best way to avoid supposed chicanery in the counting. what is interesting is in nevada of the 245,000 votes already cast, about 40% are from republicans. and 36% are from democrats. and in arizona, meanwhile, the democrats are actually behind their numbers from 2020. so, it is looking good for the

republicans to get out the vote early. >> lawrence: so when you look at the numbers, the republicans have a net gain of over 400,000. but when you look at the democrats and look at the big wall right here, it's over 257,000. >> steve: in pennsylvania. >> lawrence: loss in pennsylvania. i don't care what everyone tells you. any time i'm out there on the road talking to republicans, they are concerned about the election process. election integrity. the former president's rhetoric has changed. his message is to get out, mail in vote, early vote, because you want to make it too big to rig. i think that's resonating with people. people are showing up and they are not getting comfortable. there was period of time where republicans, especially during the red wave, they were comfortable, they didn't show up to vote it. looks to be much different now, kayleigh. >> kayleigh: it does. these are as you pointed out the pennsylvania voter registration numbers. nationally the republicans have a 1 point advantage. let me put that into perspective. when democrats win, you tend to have a plus 8 democratic voter registration.

when republicans win it tends to be a plus 3 democratic voter registration. now republicans are leading by 1. let me tell you the number i'm even more excited by. it's not just the voter registration. what i care about is returned ballots. when you look at pennsylvania, i looked this morning. i went on pa.gov. a daily ballot tracker, 62% of ballots returned by mail are democrats, 29% republicans. you say democrats are way ahead. democrats are always way ahead. republicans have increased their numbers by about 5%, 6%. democrat numbers have decreased by 1% or 2%. the marginal shift are strong indication. >> lawrence: democrats are not inspired to veto right now. i wonder why? >> brian: i thought they were all excited. they seemed very excited. they were excited to get back the house. that might have been motivational. now you got your bruce springsteen out there which is promising. eminem the only rapper i listen to kale kay no you don't. >> brian: put on my hoodie and listen to alone.

really going to kill me. i will say a couple of things that stand out. i would love to be in a state like florida. i wish these states would count before elections day. this way florida could turn around these are the guys that weighed in today. these are my past ballots. the thing that delays is when they wait -- because it's their law by statute they wait to start counting. i can see military ballots, but i would love to see early ballots. >> just wipe out a lot of the distrust when people see numbers switch back and forth. the other big story is what harris is doing and the questions she is not answering. >> steve: well, and yesterday she sat down with haley jackson of nbc. she also sat down with telemundo. that's why she was off the trail yesterday. the telemundo is going to run i believe today. haley jackson asked her a number of really good questions. of the answers we kind of heard before. watch how harris answers the question without actually answering the question and the question is about okay, you were

vice president, joe biden, not doing so well. what's up with that? watch. >> it's a judgment question. that's why i ask. can the american people trust you in these moments, even when it's maybe uncomfortable? it sounds like what you are saying youner saw anything like that from president joe biden. >> i have worked with joe biden whether -- hours and hours and hours over these four years. whether it be in the situation room or the oval office. joe biden is the one who was able to bring nato together during a crisis where for the first time in 70 years europe saw and has seen war. joe biden has done the work that has been about being a leader on what we have done to fix so much of what has been broken in terms of the economy because of donald trump's mismanagement. i speak with not only sincerity but with a -- a real first hand account of watching him do this work. i have no reluctance in saying

that, no, of course i don't. will. >> lawrence: it was such a great question. i got give credit where it's due. i don't know what you say as the vice president to that question but you don't say that especially after people have witnessed him on the debate stage fumbling around. had to change his shoes. you saw what happened in the rose garden during the black history event of juneteenth. i don't know if that's going to cut. if. >> kayleigh: she talks about firsthand accounts of joe biden. you know who else people loving joe biden talked to karl bernstein what we saw in the debate was not a one off. karl bernstein has no incentive to help donald trump. the reporters with olivia newsy outside of a biden debate debating how dead he was. not my words. the words of a reporter. okay. you have had a firsthand account. those who have are being intellectually honest have told

us exactly what biden is good answer with this is it's not helpful for me to get into a back and forth with the president. i'm going to committee job. it's unhelpful to our relationship. let's move onto the next topic. that was an honest answer, what we heard was not. >> steve: she said i am not going to continue -- my administration will be completely different essentially is the first time she ever said that than joe biden which is what people wanted to hear. it's complicated because she is the sitting vice president. there shi is sitting next to the president. but if you look at the soundbite where haley asked her about joe biden, all she really says is i worked with joe biden. i watched him do his work. those are accurate things. but she never actually addressed the issue, which is joe biden seems to be fading fast. and he is, indeed. >> brian: couple of things, too. she did two interviews yesterday. that is not enough. you do interviews. trump was doing it. he is doing tyrus at night. evidence did us the next morning. did two reagans during a day. that was on a friday.

hasn't stopped since while mocking president trump saying that he is exhausted and canceling interviews what he has done is picked up interviews. he did bloomberg instead of cnbc that's his option. they took one of his strengths, mocked it and then she take two days off to get prepared for two interviews. to me, they have to be recalibrating. i would just like to add another thing. she didn't answer -- she doesn't say-she says i'm not going to be a continuation of joe biden, but she didn't disavow anything that joe biden did. >> lawrence: no. >> steve: didn't tell how it was going to be different. >> brian: george h.w. bush was the third term as reagan. he ran as a different candidate i trailing by 20 points. rallies come up. american people decide to make a change with bill clinton after they didn't want any more of that it's fascinating to see everything come apart with two interviews, univision and bret baier and haley jackson. just asking normal questions

with this thing called follow up. >> lawrence: why does it take two days to prepare and we get nothing out of it. so crazy to me she can't multitask and be on the interviews and be on the road and campaigning. >> steve: we were talking about this yesterday with aishah hasnie she is taking the day off. remember last week with the al smith dinner that brian attended. probably looking at how donald trump did so well and got a lot of laughs kicking herself why didn't i go? i circulated to some of the producers the next day apparently there was on x a report that apparently kamala harris came in and started yelling at the campaign manager and it's like why didn't i do that? that would have been good for me. >> lawrence: same thing for the mcdonald's thing as well. taken his thunder, appeared at mcdonald's.

>> steve: she has already worked at mcdonald's. >> brian: brian. >> kayleigh: it's a stale campaign. can you smile it from a mile away. it is old, it is rotting. it is not creative. i get look she was in michigan, wisconsin and pennsylvania the day earlier. you put it all on the field, man. all on the field. >> brian: still in the margin of error. sit down for three hours with joe rogan on friday. >> kayleigh: i cannot wait. >> brian: she has not ruled it out. that just came across as i was talking to him yesterday. listen. >> word is out that you're going to sit down with the number one podcaster in the country, joe rogan. you have met him a couple of times. why is this the right time to do the interview? >> well, i don't know. i think talked about doing it and, i don't know, we talked about it for a long time. and i think he is a nice guy. i have met him a couple of times at the fights. and i don't know, it just seems something to do. no real strategy there, brian.

i do it and i do a lot of -- i do a lot of shows, good, bad or indifferent. i do a lot of shows and they come out good. we are leading. as far as rogan is concerned, you know, i enjoy him. i don't get to listen too much. i don't have a lot of time to sit down and listen. but, i think it might be very interesting. >> steve: it will be. >> kayleigh: that's the appeal though e treats the interviews as any other interview. we are talking about the any podcaster. >> brian: he will have no notes. lead in and go all right. >> kayleigh: will kamala do it. >> brian: she is thinking about it. >> kayleigh: that could be you the end of her campaign. >> steve: joe rogan audience is the bro vote. young male voters, generally. unfortunately they don't historically turn out in high numbers when it comes time to vote. that is why the republicans this time are doing something kind of

smart charlie kirk is running something called chase the vote. what they are doing is targeting low propensity conservatives to vote. in other words the bros. they are going out to the bros and hey, have you voted? are you going to vote? can we help you get your ballot into the box? that's what they are trying to do? even though joe rogan's audience may not be big voters historically. this time they might be. >> kayleigh: carley shimkus and i have a thought of thoughts on the bros being bross ourselves. >> carley: i listen to joe rogan, too. i'm sure you do too, kayleigh. it's not just bros, he has a female audience. >> brian: guests we have on. >> carley: more news to get to starting with a fox wildfire alert. crews in connecticut are battling a brush far child 90 acres flared up on monday. final salute to 66-year-old volunteer yesterday. he died in an atv rollover on the mountain where the fire is

burning. two other firefighters were also hurt but are expected to be okay. police in philadelphia are searching for two suspects behind a burglary spree across the city. surveillance video shows the thieves breaking into three businesses getting inside through the basement. just look at that the thieves getting away with about $15,000 in stolen goods. and, former democratic congresswoman turned independent tulsi gabbard has now turned into a republican. she made the big announcement at a trump rally last night in north carolina. watch this. >> it was because of my love for our country and, specifically, because the leadership that president trump has brought to transform the republican party and bring it back to the party of the people and the party of peace. but i'm stand here with you today, president trump, and announce that i'm joining the republican party. [cheers and applause] >> carley: trump even looked

shocked about that one. gabby run in the 2020 presidential election as a democrat and served in congress from 2013 to 2021. she left the democratic party in 2022 to become an independent and recently joined the trump campaign as an honorary co-chair for trump transition team. and finally, to a wild rescue down under. a woman in australia got stuck upside down between two boulders for seven hours. oh my goodness. after falling while trying to retrieve her dropped cell phone. photos released by first responders show the woman's feet sticking out of the rocks. paramedics had to move an 1100-pound bolder in order to free her who came out of the ordeal with just a few scratches and bruises. could you imagine getting stuck for that long? that is terrifying. >> brian: how did they find her? did she actually get phone? >> carley: they weren't able to save the phone they saved her. >> brian: how did they know? >> steve: they probably did find my friend next to the phone.

>> carley: this is the definition of getting stuck between a rock and a hard place. >> kayleigh: carley for the win. >> carley: thank you very much. >> steve: she will be here all week. >> lawrence: you should teach brian kilmeade. >> carley: he doesn't need my help. >> kayleigh: brian needs some whit. >> brian: thank you kayleigh. when you lose kayleigh. >> lawrence: have you lost. >> kayleigh: shannon bream. >> brian: if i'm on with shannon bream, it's over. >> lawrence: calling out kamala harris for focusing too much on trump and not her own ideas. ♪

♪ >> lawrence: president biden doesn't do kamala harris any favors on the campaign trail saying this about president trump in new hampshire yesterday. watch. >> i mean, so i know this sounds bizarre. it sounds like if i said this five years ago you would lock me up. we gotta lock him up. [applause] politically lock him up. lock him out. that's what we have to do. >> lawrence: fox news contributor charlie hurt joins us now. so, charlie, i mean, obviously it was ridiculous what he said.

but, we were just at a democratic convention full of so much joy and now it looks like it's evaporated. >> yeah. where has the joy gone in the joy has gone but the happy meal is back. no, you know, this whole episode here is, i think, a perfect reminder of just how badly i feel like the wheels are coming off the harris campaign. as you said in the intro there, joe biden is doing her absolutely no favors. what's really weird about this usually when joe biden says something stupid the white house just tries to clean it up they don't come out and make a statement about. this they were so concerned about they actually made a statement to reporters about it trying to clean it up, trying to reverse it saying he didn't really mean that but it's a really weird thing to say. how do you sit here and say -- lock him up is not even like a

political term in terms of like campaigning or anything -- anything like that. and, you know, can you say it's a freudian slip. i don't think it's a freudian slip. what do they say a mistake is in politics is when a politician accidently telling the truth. joe biden was actually saying what the democrat strategy against donald trump has been all along. that strategy has done more to empower donald trump than anything that republicans could have ever done. >> lawrence: it could be potentially damaging legally when you have a department of justice under his oversight by the way currently going after the former president. >> great point. >> lawrence: i can just imagine the trump legal team forming some type of document to the court, but i think this goes to the larger problem right there. they are not focusing on what matters. this is a -- okay, we're killing

the -- let's go back to the quote. okay, i'm just going to read it right here. this is what it came down to from politico. there was no critique of her own party or even an expression of sympathy or understanding about why voting for a liberal could be difficult for a long time conservative. this wasn't even a reference to her previous commitment to include a republican in the cabinet or create a bipartisan council of advisers. so, they are not even -- this is not real outreach, putting liz cheney on the campaign trail, right, charlie? >> yeah. no, it's extraordinary. you are taking probably the most unpopular part of the republican party, which is the old dick cheney wing of the republican party, and suddenly inserting it into a democratic campaign. it doesn't make sense. and, you make the most important pointed, which is that, you know, all of these games that she is playing and the campaign

is playing, she is not answering the central question of her candidacy, which is what is she going to turn the page from and what is she going to turn it to? and you can't describe that without defining yourself, which she cannot do, and without explaining exactly how you would be different from the person that you have served in the white house with for the past four years. and if she can't answer -- you have to answer both of those questions. she is not answering either one of them. and that's why the wheels are coming off of her campaign right now. >> lawrence: there has been 10 years of negativity and anti-donald trump sentiment out there. i mean, you got to eventually, after 10 years, come up with something new, especially when there was voters that said during the last election that they were better off. but, you know, they wanted to turned page. it was too bombastic. they did that and now they got a terrible economy. they can't afford things. their border is being overrun. you got to give them something new, charlie. >> yeah.

and, you know, even, you know, we get kind of frustrated with where things are going with politics in this country, and i certainly do. but i still think no matter how bad things are, you cannot run a campaign based entirely on hatred for one man. apparently it doesn't work. and i think what we're seeing right now is the initial evidence that it doesn't work. and that it's not going to work. and, by the way. i think it's a very good thing. we need to get back to the issues. if this election is determined by the issues, then. >> lawrence: game over. >> donald trump wins easily. if it's determined by their hatred for one person, i was sort of on a knife's edge a couple weeks ago. i think that doesn't work either. >> lawrence: charlie hurt, thanks, brother. >> great to see you, bud. >> lawrence: you got it. right now secretary blinken is in the middle east while here at home the fbi probes a leak regarding israel's response to

israeli president. i spoke with the father of an american hostage after he met with blinken. the father says he urged blinken to be bold he spent time with us very limited time here. at the end of the day, we are now looking for incremental steps. we are looking for bold actions from the administration to get this over to the finish line. >> matthew: and turning to that alleged u.s. intelligence leak, the fbi tells fox it's investigating the leaked documents which appear to outline elements of israel's plan to attack sites in iran. >> how concerned were you about the leak of classified information showing the u.s. knew about israel's preparations to strike iran can you assure the israelis this was not intentional leak by the administration? >> first of all, jen, you know that i take handling of classified information very,

very seriously. and if there is a instance where proper procedures have not been followed, we will investigate that. >> matthew: here in israel the military announced it killed a senior hezbollah leader. hashim safieddine supposed to take over for hassan nasrallah in september. brian? >> brian: thank you so much, matt. a lot of moving parts there appreciate it. 21 minutes before the top of the hour. let's move this conversation further with rebecca line critic of the institute senior fellow. how damaging was this leak and are you convinced it was a leak not a hack? we don't know the nature of the leak or the hack we do know this administration had a systemic leaking problem. any time u.s. officials have conversations with the israelis we find it reported in the american media without naming the source in the biden-harris

administration. so the biggest problem for me, brian, and the biggest fallout from this is that it further damages the united states' reputation as a reliable ally and partner, especially with allies like israel who are in a time of need about to carry out a significant counter strike against the iran regime and so there should be no leaks and the american people we know consistent basis conversation with prime minister and he president higher officials end up in the "the washington post" the next day the prrnlt decided to take things into his own hands, thank goodness now we understand the secretary of state is going to saudi arabia. got to get to some type of surrender in with hamas. hezbollah, we don't know who is leading that organization because israel has done such damage to their higher ups

injuring thousands while trying to take them down. why go to saudi arabia? what could the saudis do? >> obviously the saudis are really important if you zoom out initially the act 7th attack and support for proxies around the region was happening right as there was going to be further normalization with the saudis and the israelis this is part of the geopolitical context that the saudis were moving forward having greater relations with the israelis. get back to that secretary blinken figure out what the saudis would tolerate response against iran. how the saudis are feeling about the current and trying to get a better understanding. unfortunately, brian, the saudis have low trust that whatever they say will stay between them. american election so close in the next couple of weeks and the trump team has has been much

more supportive of the israelis and the israelis' ability to take out the iranian nuclear program. the saudis might be looking at that and say look it might be a better deal for us to wait and see how this election goes. >> brian: exactly. remember the saudis were trying to tell us how bad the suite rebels. were there who is the pariah nation. they are less than perfect. iranian is the bigger problem. i thought it was pretty obvious but not to this administration. tom cotton on the investigation said i think what a lot of us are thinking seems to be you too. the biden-harris administration can't be trusted to investigate these leaks on their own. today i demand regular updates on the investigation a long investigation, never finding out who it is leaves us susceptible. there is a alaska motivation getting to the bottom of this. am i right? >> you are right. and again, you have to have trust congress and the american people that we can hold

ourselves accountable. it's not just enough to figure out if this was intentional leak or not. figure out where the problem was in a way that increases trust with the american people. and also publicly in a way allies can trust us. really important senator tom cotton is right. congress has to put pressure on the administration to get to the bottom of this. >> brian: you can hear the frustration in his tweet. maybe we will get a development. straight ahead on this show kamala harris is in pennsylvania after she was trooled over repeated fracking flip-flops. i was very careful in saying that could it cost her key votes in the keystone state?

>> janice: good morning, everyone. we set a lot of record highs yesterday not only for the central u.s. but across the northeast. new york city 80 degrees, 84 in philadelphia. islip, new york, 82. a cold front move through in the next 24 to 48 hours to bring those temperatures down a little bit. the drought monitor is significant. especially across the ohio valley up toward the northeast. you heard carley talk about the wildfire in connecticut. very dry. rainless streak 23 days in new york city. 24 days in wilmington where we might set a record for the all time i doest month for parts of the northeast. your highs today still very warm. that front moves through and start to see those temperatures come down a little bit. still very nice though for the

month of october heading into november. here's your forecast today, not a lot of heavy rain or storm systems. we do have some unsettled weather for the northwest. parts of the great lakes. otherwise, a really good looking forecast for much of the country and very warm as well. all right, steve doocy, if you like it warm. you love that forecast. >> steve: some like it hot. >> janice: that's true. >> steve: indeed. j.d., thank you very much. meanwhile, kamala harris heading to pennsylvania today after this fracking fumble from her campaign. her team forced to backtrack after telling politico that harris doesn't promote expanded fracking. nor did she endorse additional fracking leases under her administration. the u.s. oil and gas association sounding off on social media saying this: so, harris' new position in october is she now opposes fracking and no longer supports her position in july, when she changed her position to support fracking which was subsequently a change in her prior, prior position of june,

which was to oppose fracking. got it. u.s. oil and gas association president tim stewart, who wrote that post, joins us right now from the d.c. area. tim, good morning to you. >> good morning. it's great to be with you. >> okay. so you kind of need a road map. where is she on fracking today? because it keeps changing it? >> is wednesday. if everybody is confused, we are all confused, you know. i think, steve, if you look at it, they are 425,000 jobs in pennsylvania. $75 billion in economic activity. it's unlocked because of fracking. and i think they took a look at and this said, huh. we got to tell all these people all these half million families that depend upon our industry they are important until the election and then we will revisit that i think that's one thing we are pretty nervous about. >> steve: sure. you know, and i know you had kind of a back and forth with her can climate adviserland s.

social media advisor. >> she comes from the bernie sanders camp. actually worked for bernie sanders. i know one thing in some of her tweets and public statements, she has referred to the people who work in the structures the pennsylvanians who work in the oil and gas industry, as supporting white supremacy and essentially being ecoterrorists. you know, leaders are only as good as the people around them. and i frankly don't have a lot of confidence in the harris team right now. it's not a good way to reach voters by calling them ecoterrorists and white supremacists because of their jobs. we are watching this one really carefully. >> steve: okay. so her climate engagement director kamala thorn dike. i think that's how you pronounce her first name. she said this: i didn't explain myself clearly here. contrary to trump's claims, the vp has not banned fracking, doesn't support banning fracking and, in fact, cast the tiebreaking vote on the biggest pro-climate law ever which, yes,

opened new fracking leases people know that's her position. her position keeps changing tim kept it a secret because we haven't heard her say that out loud much. >> franking is just one peels of the puzzle. i think it's vitally important for us to understand that that's just the front end. the energy needs to get out of the ground. it needs to be moved around and refined into products. and the biden-harris administration, in the last four years, has implemented over 250 individual actions designed to restrict or to end forever our ability to either produce or consume fossil energy. her climate adviser worked for the group, the public advocacy group sphwhawns cybil for developing the policy to take away people's gas stoves. and so i think we have a pretty clear idea as to where they are at. it's just a matter of they can

say yeah, well, we won't ban fracking. can you bring it out of the ground. we won't let you get it to the market or let people use it. >> steve: interesting stuff. he is sassy on social media. tim stuart, the u.s. oil and gas association president. sir, thank you very much for joining us. >> nice being with you. thank you. >> steve: carley is pro-fracking. >> carley: i'm pro-sassy on social media. that's for sure, steve. sports headlines to ghetto getting on the baseball diamond los angeles dodgers star first baseman freddy freeman says he will definitely return to the lineup for the world series opener against the yankees. he had been nursing a sprained ankle for most of the post season and missed two of the last three games against the mets. game one on friday. coverage begins at 7:00 p.m. eastern time only on fox. wnba rookie of the year caitlin clark is reportedly receiving several offers from different sports leagues amid a possible player lockout. one offer from a three on three
