trash. riding shotgun in a garbage truck to a wisconsin valley in a not so subtle dig at biden's comments. >> how do you like my garbage truck? this truck is in honor of kamala and joe biden. >> lawrence: pete is having breakfast with friends in the battleground state of michigan where trump and harris are in a dead heat. >> steve: is that the four corners. they are revved and ready to go. look at the sidewalk. [cheers] >> ainsley: i like the flannel shirt, too. >> steve: i want bacon, just saying. >> ainsley: some are dressed inn garbage cans. >> steve: it is halloween. people came in does tomb. pete will be with you in minutes. have democrats dug their own grave with out-of-control inflation in the scary prices this halloween we have got the numbers. >> brian: "fox & friends" starts right now. remember, mornings are better with friends. so get dressed.

>> brian: election day five days away as former president trump flips the script on joe biden's trash talk after he called maga supporters, his supporters garbage, trash. >> ohio do you like my garbage truck? this truck is in honor of kamala and joe biden. >> lawrence: so the cover of "the new york post." you got to look at this. trump takes out trash after biden voter slur. >> steve: the former president then was in that and rolled on to a rally in green bay where he says his team convinced him he wanted to put on his suit coat but they said, listen, boss, wear the vest and i will tell you why. listen. >> i said no way. i got 25,000 people standing outside. i got all these people here. there's no way i'm wearing it on stage. they said oh, okay, sir, i said get me my jacket. but, if you did, you know, it

actually makes you look thinner. i said. [laughter] and they got me. i said i want to wear it on stage. [laughter] >> steve: that is hilarious. >> ainsley: we can all relate to that somebody is like you look thinner that dress versus that dress okay i will go with this one. >> steve: the dress is very slimming. >> brian: wisconsin is a state he needs and state he is in a dead heat with. he keeps going back. won in 2016, barely lost in 2020. madison and those areas where extremely democrat, but, one thing that he has this time he has got brett favre for the first time he says ever brett favre says i'm not sitting on the sidelines. there is too much at stake. i'm a trump guy. the place they love brett favre. no offense to aaron rodgers. outside bart star and vince lombardi. brett favre walks on water in wisconsin. >> steve: whole thing in the final week of a campaign you want to get as much attention as

possible. by putting on that safety vest and, you know, renting a garbage truck it was very effective. do you know what donald trump proved yesterday. he proved he does not need beyonce. he does not need bruce springsteen. all he needs is a safety vest if he is talking trash or apron if he is making french fries at mcdonald's. >> ainsley: all he needs is a gaffe from the democrats. hillary clinton called everyone all of his supporters said they were baskets of deplorables and said they were smelly walmart shoppers. well, yeah, everyone middle america loves walmart. middle america appreciates. >> steve: lives there yesterday. >> ainsley: garbage collectors middle america like the blue collar worker. when they put those workers down or compare republicans to garbage, then, of course this is a perfect opportunity for him to roll out the garbage vest. to roll into the rally in a garbage truck. whoever's idea that was and you said, brian, jason miller said it was the president's idea.

>> brian: jason miller said last night. >> ainsley: just genius. >> lawrence: obviously the comments were, you know gateway for him to do it. the guy is crushing it when it comes to the media. every single event these aren't campaign ads, free media he is getting and kamala harris, yes, have you seen. so stations pop in for some of her valleys, but it's not moments like this. it's not where she is talking with voters, making -- taking a pile of you know what and turning it into something. >> steve: something chicken salad? steve. >> lawrence: we will go with that. it's the way he knows how to mobilize different events that they tried to make a negative situation and he turned it into a plus positive for him. >> brian: nobody is talking about the ellipse speech. not who is in joe biden's backyard. what's joe biden doing in the

house? the zoom call and unleashes that statement. >> lawrence: fatey fang says trump stumbles drags his leg and tries three times to open door. transparency for trump's medical records. are you kidding me? this is what the media does right now when you have joe biden in the white house and you are talking about trump getting into a big truck? that is the story right there. you want his medical records? this is how you know the campaign is imploding when the media starts talking about stuff like that. >> steve: you know, it's been called a gaffe. it was actually a gift. what joe biden said when he inexplicably went on zoom and essentially called trump supporters trash. donald trump is not making this campaign and this day of free media about him it's a making -- he is making it about his supporter who will show up by tuesday, he hopes. watch this. >> 250 million americans are not

garbage. [cheers and applause] this week kamala has been comparing her political opponents to the most evil mass murderers in history and now speaking on a call for her campaign last night crooked joe biden finally said what he and kamala really think of our supporters he called them garbage, no way. [boos] no way my response to joe and kamala is very simple: you can't lead america if you don't love americans. it's true. [cheers and applause] for the past nine years, kamala and her party have called us racists, bigots, fascists, deplorables, irredeemables, nazis and they called me hitler. [boos] they bullied you. they have demonized us.

they have taken your money. they have thrown open your borders to criminals and terrorists. they flooded your towns with deadly drugs and death. they are incompetent people. they have given your jobs to illegal migrants. this tuesday is your chance to stand up and declare you're not going to take it anymore. [cheers and applause] >> lawrence: i think that was just an effective message. the grocery store prices, the border being wide open, crime going up and after all of that you say you want to vote for trump. and then they demonize you after that, after they have taken everything from you. made life harder for you and you say you wanted to change and you get demonized as garbage. >> ainsley: kamala always says turn the page. he says turn the page on what? you are in charge for 3.5 years. last night he said for nine years kamala and her party have called us racist, fascists, deplorables, irredeemable, nazis

and called me hitler. bullied you, demonized us, censored us, deplatformed us. weaponized the power of our own government. and to your point, lawrence they are opening our borders and taking our money. everything is more expensive donald trump will be in new mexico thinks he has a chance there. henderson, nevada. appear in glendale, arizona. is he going to have one busy day. >> steve: yeah. i wonder if, you know, i know that kamala harris would like to call joe biden and say just stop it, shhh. but at the same time, i wonder if joe biden has called her to apologize. you know, i probably shouldn't have said that. >> lawrence: she said they didn't discuss it. she had a phone call with him and they doesn't discuss it. >> steve: that was before last night's extravaganza pr windfall for donald trump. jobe has got to know he really hurt her.

>> ainsley: 10 minutes after the house. accusing the white house of releasing inaccurate transcript after joe biden's garbage remark. >> they do it all the time. lou cass tomlinson is life at the white house with the latest, hey, lu. >> lucas: luke's less than a week to go who thought we would be talking about apostrophes but here we are. latino voters on tuesday night. here it. >> i don't know the puerto rican that i know or puerto rico where i'm -- my home state of delaware, they are good, decent, honorable people. the only garbage i see floating out there is his supporters, his demonization seems unconscionable. >> and here is the official white house transcript. note the apostrophe there on the word supporters. the white house press secretary responded yesterday. >> just to clarify, he was not calling trump supporters garbage.

this is why he wanted to make sure we put out a statement that clarified what he meant and what he was trying to say and so i just want to see make it clear for people watching. >> vice president harris is distancing herself from biden's zoom call while she was speaking on the ellipse. harris told supporters will no matter who though voted for. many sees a unforced error by biden like yankee pitcher garrett coal not covering first with two outs leading in the fifth leading to five run inning in the fifth. move to first like mookie betts did. back to that apostrophe in the transcript. house republicans are dhawlg transcript a false official record writing, quote: instead of apologizing or clarifying president biden's words. the white house instead sought to change them, despite them being recorded on video by releasing auto false transcript of his remarks. white house staff cannot rewrite the words of the president of the united states to be more

politically on message. so, guys, the lessons learned, perhaps if hillary clinton had just added an apostrophe to the word deplorables that could have blown over, guys? >> steve: that's a good point. lucas, the fact that house oversight the republicans there are making an issue of this, ultimately they will probably just add the apostrophe and that will be it. and it keeps it in the news another day and another day closer to the election. >> lucas: it sure does, steve. that's why we are talking about it today the official transcript. they heard the video. why you maid at the top of this hit. it was pretty clear that the president said supporters. what the white house was saying he was talking about the comedian on stage. of course that's not what he said. >> steve: it's not. >> lucas: in our business sometimes you have to take people at their word not what we think they said. >> steve: exactly. >> lawrence: thanks, lucas. >> brian: stuck in a little sports reporter there carley is going to be upset. >> lawrence: did you all watch

the white house briefing yesterday some of the reporters going back and forth. why is this even up for debate? some reporters are like well beings okay maybe did he say i'm like you could -- we have the clip where you hear him say it full stop after supporters. >> lawrence: just apologize. >> steve: sounded plural not possessive. >> ainsley: the republicans are accusing him of releasing this false transcript. dolls this go in the official records? >> steve: yeah. >> lawrence: but they change it outline the time. >> steve: they do. >> lawrence: they change his transcript all the time. >> steve: they clean it up. >> ainsley: not one person that is not partisan that writes those? >> steve: it's communications wing of the white house. >> ainsley: it shouldn't matter if it's a republican or a democrat you put in the official book whatever was really said. >> lawrence: that's right. >> steve: we know what has been said. we just played you the entire clip. it's not the first time joe biden has called out trump supporters. let's hop in the way back machine, folks.

>> donald trump and the maga republicans represent an extremism that threats the very foundations of our republic. maga republicans, the extreme right, the -- the -- the trumpys. >> this maga threat is a threat to the brick and mortar of our democratic institutions. but it's also a threat to the character of our nation. >> steve: done it before. been there, done that. >> brian: let's go out to pete. pete, you are in that state of michigan where there is going to be a lot of focus. >> ainsley: that state. >> brian: we understand last poll dead heat in michigan. >> pete: it's a dead heat and already 2 million votes and we have six days to go to election day. a being pad house here. hey, everybody, how are we doing this morning.

open incitement against benjamin netanyahu whose house was targeted earlier this month with a hezbollah drone. kassem said he survived this time but perhaps he would be killed by someone in israel. with the war ongoing we know that diplomatic efforts are continuing to end the exchanges of fire along the northern front. hundreds of rockets and airstrikes being traded each week. overnight lebanon's prime minister signaled a deal could be just days away for pause in the fighting. u.s. envoy bret mcguirk and adviser hochstein are in israel to try to reach an agreement with a focus on lebanon israel is preparing for the possibility that iran launches a counter strike following saturday's strikes. an official telling fox news they believe iran will try to close this round of conflict during their response. we're also covering some breaking news out of northern israel right now. where according to the israeli military, five people were killed in a hezbollah rocket attack. ainsley? >> ainsley: all right. thank you, trey.

former president trump riding into his wisconsin rally in a trash truck, a clear dig at president biden after he called trump supporters garbage this week. he even showed up to his rally still wearing that reflective vest while kamala harris continued her fear campaign elsewhere in the swing state. >> i have to begin by saying 250 million americans are not garbage. [cheers] if we win wisconsin, we win the whole thing. >> we know who donald trump is. this is not someone who is thinking about how to make your life better. this is someone who is unstable. obsessed -- obsessed with revenge. >> ainsley: republican u.s. senate candidate and a resident of wisconsin, eric hovde joins us now. good morning to you. >> good morning, ainsley. >> ainsley: good morning. i know you were there. what was it like? >> you know, it was electric

event. obviously, when president trump came in with the vest that he came in driving on the garbage truck was hilarious. he made some funny jokes how it makes him look thinner and that's why he decided to wear it but, look, it was a fantastic event. they brought up brett favre, an icon packer player. so that was really cool. i grew up loving the packers. i'm a die hard packer fan. got to sit and talk with bret back stage but, yeah, it was a great event. you know, it's amazing how the left tries to demonize half of america and the comments they use. it's just so wrong. yeah, it went well and there is a lot of energy. and as president trump said, look, wisconsin is the battleground state. if we here in wisconsin, he is going to win the presidency and i'm going to change and flip the senate and we got to head in a new direction.

our country desperately needs to go into a new direction. >> ainsley: eric, you are running against senator tammy baldwin yesterday some of the people run for senate in close raraces were asked about joe biden's comment about garbage. she said tammy baldwin her campaign released this tammy baldwin does not degree with biden she is fighting for all wisconsin nights no matter who they are or who they vote for. you all are neck and neck. she according to the marquette university poll, she is getting 51% and you are getting 49%. do you think what trump did yesterday in wisconsin will help you and your chances of winning in that state. >> marquette poll has always been off. it's going to come down to the voters. trump and i are the tip of the spears. it news all of your viewers and the people of wisconsin to get out and vote, grab their friends, their neighbors, their colleagues, the people they hunt, fish, go to church with. it all comes down to the voters.

look, i got into this race nine months ago, why? because i love our country. but we desperately need change. our country is going in such a bad direction. and we need to restore our wonderful country. so, senator baldwin has been there for pretty much 26 years. her whole professional life, 38 years in politics. she is radical. she pushes all this crazy agenda. she actually said prior very derogatory comments about trump voters and called president trump a man who is the most dangerous man with a dark soul. so, the rhetoric of the left just needs to end. and the lies and the attacks she has made on me through this whole campaign. i ask your voters, get out, help, send some money to eric hovde.com. we are through the final days. i believe we can win this thing. we just got do everything we can. >> ainsley: congratulations for working so hard. you have just -- she has been in office for so long. and you came in and now you all

you know we had some severe weather last night. we have snow in the forecast across the upper midwest, parts of the northwest, and we could actually see some severe weather across the mississippi river valley. there is some of the top wind reports. okay? so this is no joke here. this is not a treat or a trick. just keep that in mind and we will keep you up to date. here in new york it's going to be 81, i think, as the daytime high. we will enjoy that fox weather.com for all of your latest details. thank you, ladies, we will toss it over to brian kilmeade right now. >> brian: thanks so much. great to see our fans out there. meanwhile, as the election inches closer we are days away. a number of states facing preelection ballot challenges already. here to break it down the ongoing cases that is carrie irvon. can we start in virginia where dramatic appeal yesterday to remove roughly 1600 suspected non-citizens from these voter rolls. governor youngkin pretty happy

only one that makes sense for a federal crime for non-citizens to vote. also consistent with virginia law. they have a law that is essentially lie a dmv rule as you a verify as non-citizen you can't vote. governor youngkin and his team has been enforcing this for a couple of years now. in august they issued an executive order simply formalizing what they have done all along. and then at the 11th hour the department of justice in october swoopsd, in sued them, and said you have to keep these non-citizens on the voter rolls, which, you know, brian, just as an american is a bit concerning. now they said it was because he was disturbing the so-called 90 day quiet period and said no we are not. we are following the law and we have been doing this all along but the supreme court weighed in and said yes, for now, virginia can keep those non-citizens off the rolls. >> brian: all right. let's move over to pennsylvania pennsylvania three cases you want to go through let's begin.

>> if pennsylvania there are a number of things happening. one, there is a situation with ballots with errors and here there were two people who mailed in their ballots this with in the primary and failed to put their ballot in this thing called the secrecy envelope, instead they put it in a regular envelope. few rules that govern mail-in ballots in pennsylvania. you have to put it in this particular envelope and have to sign it and date it. they didn't do that rather than wait for the county to make their determination on those ballots, they went ahead and voted again this became a problem the pennsylvania supreme court recently said we are going to pretend like they never voted at all and we are going to take these second ballots instead. the problem with that is that it is in direct violation of pennsylvania law look, if you mail in your ballot in time, we're not going to take a second ballot after that because think of the chaos that could cause by it. people could vote multiple times and you wouldn't know. that's up for litigation and the rnc is litigating that.

>> brian: let's talk about lancaster, you mentioned that. here is what the d.a. said in a statement. this officer remains committed to using all resources to investigate these acts and file all applicable charges should we find it necessary to do so. we're investigating who is responsible for this many speculation at this point is premature lancaster pa are investigating 2500 reporter registration applications for potential fraud. they are going to go over this individually and? >> and they determined that 60% of those voter registration forms were in fact fraudulent. this is one to watch, brian. we are not talking about some random person saying i saw people throwing ballots in a garbage can. hearing from plol officials saying someone or a group dropped off thousands of voter registration forms and in your county it was voter registration forms plus mail in ballot requests and took a look at these on their face they were suspicious, do you know why? a lot of them were in the same handwriting, same date. didn't match up with social

security numbers. what they have done there is separated out these suspicious forms and they are investigating. apparently there are up to four counties in pennsylvania right now who are dealing with what they think may be a wide scale voter operation fraud situation. >> brian: i just hope the governor is vigilant and the attorney general. because we got to get to the bottom of it. i hope everyone's objective is the same. north carolina the rnc is suing the north carolina state board of electors they say 225,000 people not properly registered because their forms did not require a driver's license or partial social security number. >> yeah. just earlier this week, a court of appeals panel said that had to stay in federal court. so now goes back to the same judge who has to divide whether this action violated the north carolina constitution and if, in fact, this case can go forward. as you mentioned, brian, 225,000 people, that's a lot. so, we'll see what happens and if this case can move forward or not. >> brian: especially in north

carolina. >> right. >> brian: did we see this last time. i don't remember this many challenges i kind of like it ahead of the election, don't you. >> litigation over elections is normal. unfortunately last time, i would say there wasn't enough -- the preparation wasn't there and i have to say i have been impressed with the amount of challenges that have been come in. look, you know, the amount of mail-in ballots that have happened especially post covid have created all kinds of new challenges. the proper way to remedy this is in the courts. you are seeing organized efforts by both sides to take these situations to courts and have them properly figured out there. >> brian: right. this way get it all out. when the election comes in we feel good about it as we also have the -- we also have the election watchers, too. >> and there will be cases after, of course, let's just make sure of that. >> the fewer the better, that means more people will accept the verdict. thanks, kerri, appreciate it. >> thank you. >> brian: meanwhile let's talk the economy, inflation up over
