hillsdale was founded in 1844. we're passing on a cultural heritage, the culture of the west. when the federal government started giving money to colleges, we didn't take it. that independence has allowed us to stay with our mission that we established 175 years ago. because we don't accept federal money. we are free to concentrate on the mission of the college. we care about freedom, and that affiliates us with the free institutions of america.

♪ joey: it's the 9 a.m. hour of "fox & friends" weekend starting with this: democrats may finally be waking up to the fact that biden's open border policies are weighing them down as the chaos continues under their watch. but is it a little bit too late? will: plus, aoc president in to 2028? speculation grows the squad member could be running next election, but she isn't the only democrat on the list. rachel: and rocking around the right christmas tree -- [laughter] we learned how to pick the perfect pine on fox square and put our decorating skills to the test. the final hour of "fox & friends" weekend starts right now. ♪ ♪ run, run, rudolph, santa's got to make it to town. ♪ santa, make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
6:02 am
♪ rachel: good morning, everybody. it's 9:00 here in new york city. if you're in new york city, there are two trees, and fox ane on fox square is becoming the favorite tree. we have music playing, you know, when you come around, everybody wants their picture taken in front of it. i think it's replacing the rock ferrell as the favorite place to comp -- rockefeller. will: crowd out there now. rachel: i know. people love it. joey: it's a better tree. hey, that might be the best luke bryan song i've ever heard. his voice was made for that song. that was really good. rachel: it was good. will: i think today, this weekend is one of biggest lies you ever tell yourself. so i just got done, obviously, as we all did eating buttermilk if pie, pecan pie, all of the above, and i'm telling myself, i'm going to get it together -- rachel: like, diet starts, when? saturday? sunday? monday? will: today. but it's a lot. no one gets right --
6:03 am
rachel: because the leftovers are still there. will: well, right. for today. but what are you, going to get healthy right before christmas? joey: portion control. will: i know. that's but i'm going to tell myself that lie. rachel: you've been pretty good, honestly. will: yeah, it's been about a month now -- rachel: kid you get knocked off around halloween? will: halloween. joey: talking about lies, lying to yourself, gaslight aring people, look at how the democrats have handled the border for the last four years. so is on that topic, maybe democrats are finally, you know, admitting that their border policy was maybe nonexistent and very hurtful to this country. this is a quote from anonymous if democrat senator on the hill -- or in the hill. we destroyed ourselves on the immigration issue in ways that were entirely predictable and manageable. we utterly mismanaged the issue
6:04 am
including our democratic caucus here. that's political malpractice, that's not someone else's fault, that's not the groups pushing us around. i just want to say real quick on this what i like about this which is so much different than everything you've heard postelection is this is not about messaging. this is about policy. they're saying we didn't do our job. that might not be exactly what they mean, but that's how i read it, which is the truth. and i hope for the sake of our country that many democrat senators and representatives are waking up to this because we're going to need them to vote the right way. of. rachel: do you believe that's what that anonymous senator's saying, that that we got the policy wrong, or did they -- or is this him saying we got the messaging around -- joey: i think it's policy. rachel: all of them were silent. none of them said anything. will i think they have to have seen the effects not just at the southern border which, by the way, including recently you can see a 10-year-old boy was found abandoned at the southern
6:05 am
border, so they have to have seen the impact of those policies at the border but also in their own cities like new york, like in chicago. joey:. will: and i think they paid a price with even their own voters over this issue. rachel: yeah. i really want us to watch this clip. i know it's painful. it's saturday, it's after thanksgiving and nobody wants to know that this is happening. but while we're carving up our turkeys and eating around our table, a little 10-year-old boy, and there are lots of them out there even to younger, they get brought in by human traffickers who don't give a uniyou know what for them at all. they're just a product that pay pays money. and if the little kid, as you know little kids, you know, maybe misbehave or do something that the irritates these evil cartel members, they literally abandon with them. watch what happens when our border patrol who are the greatest humanitarian everett in the western hemisphere -- efforn
6:06 am
this little boy. watch this. [speaking spanish] will: man. joey: he's crying. that is the most vulnerable that deserves to be the most protected. the 2-year-old little girl last week just absolutely broke my heart. not to say that he's any less important -- rachel: no. joey: but at 2 years old, they need hugs and love 24/7. and just to to know that they -- carly and i were talking about this yesterday on the couch. i put a lot of blame, it's hard for me to understand any chiropractor situation as a parent where you can allow this to happen. it's just --
6:07 am
rachel: we unite them with taxpayer collars to the parent who put that child through that. -- dollars. here is sara carter talking about it's not just that encounter, which you can imagine how terrifying, forget what, you know, there's wild an malls out there, he has no water, no food, he has a cell phone that's probably not even charged anymore. so here's sara talking about this. >> i'm watching that poor little 10-year-old boy and i'm thinking to myself, what's he been through? he's not only arriving and so relieved, but what's he been through? imagining being trafficed by criminal cartels, by people that literally have abused these children, raped them physically, sexually, mentally. they are traveling with men hay don't even know, with women they don't even know. they're lucky if they even make it across the border. this was biden's policy.
6:08 am
this was the democrats' policy. they flooded our country. they didn't care about our lives, they didn't care about the lives of our children when fentanyl was coming across the border and still is, and they don't care about the lives of these poor children that are being trafficked, that aring being used as slaves, that aring being abused. -- that are being abused. when will we wake up and say -- and call them out for what they have done? rachel: will, 20 of boys that we know of $ -- 20% -- are sexually assault ised on these journeys. this is a scandal. will: yeah. and the video we just showed, which is shocking and sad, is actually the end of the trip. it's what's occurred all the way to that border which sara and you are referencing. we created a magnet, an incentive, and you're seeing the terrible payoff of that incentive. joey: i just want to point out, you've talked about this, you know, a lot. these are two examples, a 22-year-old girl -- 2-year-old
6:09 am
girl, a 10-year-old boy. there are, i believe, tens of thousands of unaccompanied minors that are lost -- rachel: 300,000. joey: that little boy and that little girl multipied by 300,00. we have no idea where they are. they got here and that's all we know. where they're living, who has custody of them, we don't know, and that just, it cannot be allowed. rachel: and never forget the democrats fought tooth and nail to make sure that no dna tests were taken with the child and the adults we handed -- they fought against making sure that we could see if there was actually a familial, you know, connection between the two. they fought against it. we should never forget that the democrats who are now complaining, oh, we got the policy wrong, they didn't just get the policy wrong, they fought to make sure it was as bad as possible. will: well, those policies are about to the change.
6:10 am
in the matter of a month, month and a half, those policies about to change here in america. looking past the promise of the next four years, democrats are already speculating what could happen in 2028. social media's running wild. familiar names, kamala harris, gavin newsom, josh. shapiro, gretchen whitmer, pete buttigieg, j.b. pritzker, but a new name as cross social media there at the end of your screen, alexandria ocasio-cortez. that's where the speculation, is aoc might run for president. rachel: she will finally be of age in 2018 28 to run for -- 2028 to run for president. here's monica crowley. >> the lesson of the last election and donald do trump's mandate victory is that the country has had enough of the radical left, it's had enough of socialism, it's had enough of cancel culture and wokeness, and it rejected roundly all of those things. so i don't think in four short
6:11 am
years the country is going to say we need more communism. [laughter] i don't think that that is going to be the choice that they are going to make. however, just a word of warning to the republicans, to my party, to the not underestimate aoc. she's young, she's vibrant, she's attractive. the i think she's wrong on everything, but she does have real grassroots support. will: e talked about this earlier. first, i agree, do not underestimate aoc. rachel: 100. will: she's criss 3459ic to her base -- charismatic, she's a populist, and she's going to pay attention to changes. he took her pronounce out of her bio on x. rachel: she did. will: but i will say i think the far left has been rejected. squad members are losing their seats in congress. she's of a different quality of politician than rashida tlaib or cori bush. she's a more powerful politician. but i think she would have to disavow her record at this point
6:12 am
that the country has rejected. no far left. rachel: well, listen, i think, i think she is not to be underestimated. i have said this from the moment she stepped on stage, she beat one of the most powerful men on congress to win that seat. she's won it over and over. she's destroyed the district and continues to win strongly in her district, and here's what she has going for her. you talked about immediately she quietly removed the pronouns off of her web site. she will not run as a communist. she will run as a populist. she is a chameleon in many ways, and one of the things she did as well right after the election, really smart, one of the only ones in her party to do this, she went on social media on a live format in her car, i think she was, and she said, listen, i want to know why you voted for trump, because in her district a lot of people voted for her and voted for donald trump. joey: yeah. rachel: and she was genuinely and sincerely curious to
6:13 am
understand how that happened. and i think she's a very smart if girl. again, i agree with monica crowley, she's a commie. i know she has has a degree in economics, she doesn't understand economics, she, you know, destroyed the ability for people in her district to find jobs when she got rid of amazon in her area. all kinds of stuff she's done, and she's a negative force. however, she is really smart. she went in that live, she wanted to find out why did you vote for maine i think she's figuring out who she is, she's growing up as she goes through this job concern. joey: exactly. rachel: she's very savvy and p i mean, she has tenses of millions of followers, and she speaks to them directly, she understands social media. this woman is not to be underestimated. joey: yeah. i don't know if it's presidential -- i don't know if people look to her and see a future president in four years or not, but i think the two thing things that she really has that the rest of the squad doesn't and she does so well is her youth gives her a lot more
6:14 am
grace to change her positions, because people can identify and say, well, you know, i thought differently at 25 the than i do at 35, and they can identify with that. they can say, okay, i can accept that. the other thing she has is that she has been very smart in the way she pushes back out loud, publicly against nancy pelosi, joe biden, establishment democrats. and there's a vein of that in trump in how he pushed back against establishment republicans when he took the helm of the party. so there's absolutely an an appetite for that type of politician for either party among americans. rachel: here's some other similarities with her and trump. both of them are comfortable in their own skin -- joey: yeah. rachel: both of them come off not as politicians, but they come from the outside. she has voted with the establishment, he also criticizes the establishment. she's also taken some very interesting votes across lines, so she's work workinged with representative massey on some
6:15 am
policies. so, again, i am not endorsing aoc. i can't tell you how much i disagree with her -- the. [laughter] will: you endorse gavin newsom for 2028. rachel: just his hair. [laughter] but here's the deal, she is a very savvy girl, young woman, and she will, i think, over the next -- watch her. over the next four years, she's watching donald trump, she's looking at populism, and she's going to try and convince everyone that she's not a communist and that she's a pop list, and this is going to be the -- populist and she's going to be interesting to watch. joey: maybe she'll convince herself. will: all right. a new report shows nearly 70 to % of the biden administration's education enforcement targeted christian and career colleges, something you intuitively knew, heard about in stories here, for example, on "fox & friends," but now revealed in a new report on enforcement where they targeted their enforcement. brian mueller, the president of grand canyon university, called out biden's department of
6:16 am
education a little bit earlier. watch this. >> we saw a chance to go back as a nonprofit university sick years ago a, and we executed that transaction. it was approved by the irs and the higher learning commission and everybody else that needed to approve it, but it was denied by the department of education. that was an unprecedented move which i have no idea why they did that. we filed a complaint, and once we filed a complaint, they started with retaliation. they opened up five different investigations and finally centered on that we had misled, somehow, doctoral students. i said are there any complaints from students? no, we're not saying it's based upon complaints, it's based upon how we read your web site. we don't know9 what the next move is, but they fined us $37 million, they fined liberty $17 million. we're the two largest christian universities in the cub -- in the i country, so they're not even being subtle about what they're doing. rachel: this was such a fascinating conversation i had with this president of grand canyon university. of when you looked underneath,
6:17 am
there were no investigations of any ivy league universities, there was no student complaints, for example, of -- in grand canyon university. they just, i mean, we heard about the weaponization of the federal government, you know, on donald trump and through some of these legal battles. we did see the department of education go after parents. we didn't hear enough about what they were doing to take down christian universities. this was the an attack on christian universities. they clearly saw this as a threat. they have a monopoly on higher education, and they were using the department of education to basically direct lawfare on them. joey: this is not new though, president obama was doing the same thing with thish s rs, the nsa. this is par for the course for when democrats get in control, and that's one of the things that americans are starting to wake up to. people like elon musk are leading the charge in exposing the democrats, their ideology of using big government to not just
6:18 am
control your lives, but to quiet you or quiet, you know, to go after you for having a set of ideas that don't -- rachel: do you think that donald trump will actually dismantle the department of education? joey: i think he needs to get mike rowe involved. will: i think every promise he has made so far it looks like he's executing. rachel: i really hope it's true, because that department has shown itself to have way too much power. will: a doe spokesperson said our top priority is protecting academic integrity for all students at institutions of higher education. the data itself pushes a false narrative birdies tort thing information released publicly by the department. we move to a few additional headlines. an illinois police officer dead after a shooting right outside of chicago in oak park yesterday. smackerring -- marking the first time an officer has been killed on the job there since 1938. off thes responding to calls about a man with a gun leaving a bank. that's when a police detective
6:19 am
and others confronted the man who pulled out a gun and opened fire. the unnamed suspect who was shot in the leg is being treated in the hospital, no word yet on charges. a california pastor with a martial arts background fending off a suspected burglar at his church on thanksgiving. pastor nick neves telling fox news digital, i grabbed ahold of him, and we ended up wrestling around the parking lot throughout 15 minutes until the cops could get there. police recovered an axe. the suspect was taken into custody by police. the pastor saying god was very gracious and protected me. and finally, martin scorsese's the saints is available now on fox nation with a new episode dropping tomorrow based around the life of st. sebastian. >> you are a defender of rome. we must reestablish order. >> i'm here to help you save

6:25 am
to dismiss the case, throwing willis' professional future into doubt. former federal prosecutor francey hakes joins us now. good morning, thank you for joining us. from what i understand, obviously, this is the last case with the state of georgia here. if what makes this, what makes people believe this case will be dropped? >> well, good morning, joey. right now the case sits with the georgia court of appeals, and just this week they're supposed to have oral arguments on the defense's to motion to have fani willis recused for a variety of misconduct. and without any warning, without any apparent if motion and without any explanation, the court of appeals just removed -- that is, canceled -- that oral argument. and so there's speculation that they are getting ready to just rule based on the briefs instead of requiring oral argument. and if they're not requiring oral argument, they've probably
6:26 am
made up their mind, and i'm guessing that the election has something to do with it. joey: we all i saw the riveting, we televise ised it live, the riveting case where fani willis' relationship with nathan wade was highlighted and showing where she might have been exposed malpractice in bringing these charges. so are we looking at a situation where she is the -- she as the prosecutor is removed and, thus, the case goes away unless another prosecutor picks it up, or is it the merits of the case itself that could have it thrown out? >> well,s joey, if she gets recused and the case simply gets removed from her office, because if she's conflicted out, her entire office is conflicted out, then the case goes over to the prosecutorring -- prosecuting county's d of georgia, then they have -- in fact, we swan of the prosecutors in action in the lakenen riley case last week. she worked for the prosecuting attorneys' council of georgia,
6:27 am
so they could assign it to them or to a different elected d.a., and the case would effect we'vely start from zero because no prosecutor's going to want to come in and simply start where fani willis left off. i suspect they'll all reach the same conclusion, this case should have never been brought. yeah yeah yeah. that seems to be what most people think. this lawfare has to end, and our president needs to be able to govern. francey hakes, thanks for joining us. >> thanks, joey. joey: yes, ma'am. all right. so australia's putting an age limit on social media use. should the u.s. follow suit? that's the debate, and it's happening here next.

6:32 am
landmark reform. we know some kids will find work-arounds, but we're sending a message to social media companies to clean up their act. here with more on the impact this law could have for kids is clinical psychologist kevin gilliland, and he joins us now. doctor, thanks for joining us this morning. this is such a fascinating topic. what's your view? is australia doing the right thing here? >> honestly, i think they are. rachel: me too. >> good morning and happy holidays. always good to be with you guys. they've planted a pretty strong flag, if you will. other countries are looking at it, and i think what they're saying more than anything is parents are saying something which is we don't have the time to wait for big tech to do the right thing. we need help, and we're asking for governments to think about doing that and step in. it's a reasonable request. we typically require an age before we consume things or step into things that are powerful whether it's driving, voting,
6:33 am
alcohol. make no mistake about it, social media's powerful. rachel: so what's the age you recommend? to begin allowing children to use it? we have this debate all the time, but i'm interested in your thoughts. >> okay. so i tend to land in the spot of 15 or 16 years old. the u.s. has talked about 13, but have you been around a seventh grader? have you been around a ninth grader, tenth grader in there's a reason we separate 'em at that age. most schools have junior high and high school for a reason. you want a little bit of cognitive development and a little bit of judgment to improve. allow some brain development. and what you're really i saying is we need to protect those brains and allow them to develop in a healthy way with healthy things. rachel: so what are we protecting them from when we talk about social media and -- i think of it, i have nine kids, doctor, and so we always say the best part about nine kids is you get a lot of do-to others. so the older kids, i think we
6:34 am
gave it to them too early. we let them have them in junior highering i'm with you 100%. and we keep moving it back. my concern is mostly access to pornography, that would be a top concern, loss of attention, you know, loss of attention because i think it destroys their ability to concentrate and just it's designed for addiction. it addicts the adults, of course it's going to addict children. what are your concerns? is. >> yeah. so you point out two things that are really critical and, yeah, you should -- if you can have more than one kid, realize, hey, i'm sorry, i'm not that that a good of a parent and we're trusting y'all to develop some skills and abilities. if you start from a place of what are those qualities you're trying to instill in your kids, start with that. just the short list of who do you want them to become and then foster those activities that lead to that and protect against those that don't support that. and you're right, social media
6:35 am
has this rather rapid stimulus response effect, and it can condition our brains -- that's why i say, allow some brain development. there is nothing better for growing physical and psychological health than being part of real things in the real world. and so that stimulus response and leading to this lethargic lifestyle that we're all vulnerable to when we spend too much time on social media. and i think what we need is we need governments to step in and really press big tech. rachel: i couldn't agree with you more. >> you know, we need something. and i ran this past some parents that i work with all a over the country, and i was shocked at all of them were, like, yes, we need something. rachel: yeah. >> and these are parents that are involved and active and trying to, goat -- quote, do the right thing. we've got to step in. big tech's been way too slow to help us out. rachel: it's too hard.
6:36 am
as a parent, it's, like, help me out here. i want government to be the bad guy, not me. sometimes i think that's helpful. listen, looking at this issue, i know i'm not a libertarian. i did not like what australia did with covid and their lockdowns, they were draconian and tyrannical, but on this issue i look at this through the prism of what is good for children and families, and i think this ban is a great idea, and i'm for it and i don't care who criticizes me about it. i'm with you, doctor. we love having you on, and we'll have you back. i think these are the kind of discussions all of our viewers, especially our parents, are talking about around the kitchen table. so thank you for joining us this morning. >> always a good to be with y'all, and good decision on your part. i agree. they got this one right, and i think we should follow suit. rachel: amen to that. all right, thank you, doctor. >> take care. rachel: uh-huh. fans are now rallying to bring back the classic redskins logo to washington. i love it. we tackle the controversy next.

joey: we welcome you back with this fox weather alert. this is a look at 'ally, pennsylvania, as -- erie, pennsylvania, on one of the biggest travel days of the year. our fox weather storm specialist mike seidell is live just outside of buffalo, new york, and it's hard to believe, but it looks like there's even more snow there since the last time we checked in. mike? >> reporter: this is true. and let's go to the snow stick,
6:41 am
a yardstick in this case, and here in fredonia, we're now up just above 20 the inches since yesterday. we were in mayville this morning and drove up here, at that point at 5:30, they had 30 inches. we really got clobbered there yesterday. we're getting some blowing and drifting. behind me is the entrance to the thruway, the new york state thruway, which is closed from ham berg with all the way to the pennsylvania line, and that is causing issues on some of the back roads. we took the back roads, 20 the miles took an hour, and on the way we saw three semis who were trying to get around the road closure on the thruway stuck on the hill. sometimes you just have to be patient. the lake effect snow warning goes until 7 p.m., monday. some of these areas will pick up 4, maybe 5 feet especially up around watertown north of syracuse. football game tomorrow night in
6:42 am
orchard park, and the southtown's moan for their snowfall, and they're going to get plenty of it. whether it's snowing or snowing hard at game time remains to be seen, but it seems likely the band will weaken before kickoff at 8:20 eastern. very little open this morning, dunkin' donuts opened and closed, i don't think applebee's is opening, and there are very few people out because it's one of those days where if you don't have four-wheel drive, you'll get stuck. there are a lot of stuck cars in the area, and that is because you just can't get around with the showfall rate. adam has more on the cold weather. i kid check the icebox of america, international falls, minnesota 1 is a wind -- -1 with a wind chill of -13. as i mentioned earlier down south in atlanta, they had their first sub-freezing temperatures this morning at 31. adam: yeah, mike, a rot lot -- a lot of places dealing with those

temperatures, not a lot of places dealing with the snow you have there. only five hours south of where i'm standing. we've got people from across the country, i've got texas back here, but i heard something and i was like, okay, i have to put a microphone. rose, you guys are from pittsburgh, and what a did i hear you say? >> marina's here for you, she loves you. adam: here for me! who who's that? come here. this is the greatest thing. if someone comes all the way for me, you're going to get on tv. let's talk about thatwet forecast. is it too cold for you? >> no. adam: pittsburgh, they're hearty people p. 2 degrees in chicago, the -8 people in minneapolis -- temperature in minneapolis. atlanta, 28 degrees tomorrow morning. it's going to be sticking with us the next couple of days, so freeze warnings, frost advisories. those are your weather headlines for now. even want to wave, we're going
6:44 am
to throw it back inside to you. will: thank you, adam. adam: you got it. will: the redskins could be making a return. one lawmaker is making the go ahead that would revitalize the poland where the washington commanders originally played. >> it honors indian country, so we've had good discussions with the nfl and with the commanders. there's good faith negotiations going forward. it's going to allow this logo to be used again, perhaps revenues going to a foundation that could help native americans in sport and so forth. we're making good progress. will: here with reaction is ricky cobb. what do you think? do you think we're going to see the return of the redskins? >> will, i'm optimistic. i think that this is something that would be great for washington fans and great for nfl fans in general. it's an iconic logo, it honors a great man. let's bring it back. will: a lot of people don't know
6:45 am
this, ricky. i was at espn at the time, i had these debates when they were starting to do away with that. that logo was designed by a black foot indian from montana. it honors, i believe, the man who drafted that, it honors one of his ancestors. everything about this was intended to be something that honors native americans, and through some activists and some really, you know, honestly, some white sports writers, they turned this into a civil rights cause. >> yeah. and, unfortunately so. walter blackie wetzel who designed this logo was honoring chief two guns caftan k. and it's a beautiful logo caftan -- white calf. let's face it, the washington commanders, that's a franchise that's been in search of an identity since it lost its identity, and i think bringing in this logo back is a great way
6:46 am
to honor the tradition and do it in a respectful way. will: the question, ricky, will be can they overcome the activist class which, by the way, is populating the sports media as well. i know this, did the research on it. the washington redskins were the most popular team on almost every indian reservation in the country. they love the redskins. but, again, by some activists it was painted as a though it was this insulting thing to indians. and it just makes you wonder though acknowledging that reality, and steve daines making this point, can you -- you're in sports as well. can you overcome this narrative that has been pushed that, oh, it's racist? >> i think that we have to push back against this narrative. dei gone amok is possibly one way to look at this. cancel culture gone too far. you don't want to cancel the great things about native american culture and, done appropriately with this logo --
6:47 am
nobody's suggesting to bring the team name back. i don't think there's any way that's going to happen. but to throw out this logo along with the team name, i think, went way too far, and it's taking away from celebrating native american heritage in this country. will: yeah. >> and i think that we've got to use some common sense here, will. let's bring it back. will: native americans have an integral role in the history of this country, and bib dulling this cancel culture instinct, they're erasing anything that honors or recognizes native americans and their role in this country. this is political correctness done for the sake of virtue signaling with a real detrimental affect -- effect, ricky, thanks for being with us. >> thank you, will. will: all right. rocking around the right christmas tree. we learned how to pick the perfect pine on fox square, and we put our decorating skills to the test. ♪ ♪
