>> brian: where does time go, it is friday, january 24, this is "fox and friends." migrant deportation fights are underway. white house press secretary posting photos that show migrants boarding militarien plas, what we know. >> carley: and the president is heading to north carolina and then to california. someone special willing waiting on the tarmac when he arrives. >> lawrence: cold temperatures won't stop today's march for life. rachel campos-duffy will preview the big event. final hour of "fox and friends"

st starts right now. defense secretary nominee, our friend pete hegseth, could be confirmed today after clearing a senate hurdle, not without something from democrats and a couple republicans. >> brian: aishah hasnie, you might have some weekend hours coming your way. >> ai >> ayesha: it will happen without the -- later tonight and looking at possibly two defections from the gop, that is main senator susan collins and senator murkowski, both voted no, that is good indication that is how they will vote today. collins cites lack of experience

and murkowski says it is lack of experience and the allegations. john thune said it wasn't a big surprise to him. >> we will have more conversations with them. i tell senators, your vote is your vote, be with the team when you can, don't ever surprise us, don't tell us one thing and do something else. we try to make sure we have everybody pull together. we have a president came in with big mandate. >> ayesha: if democrats and republicans can't come to an agreement, we are looking at a 9 p.m. vote. democrats are forcing republicans to sit through 30 hours of debate for each and every single nominee. sometimes there is no debate

going on. yesterday cory booker read a p poem. it is why it took so long to confirm john ratcliffe as cia director, 74-25, big bipartisan showing for him. he was sworn in shortly after. the president says he is ready to use recess appointments but he is leaving it up to john thune. r.f.k. jr. happens on wednesday, kash patel and tulsi gabbard happen on thursday. back to you. >> brian: big week. i think it is pretty unbelievable they will fully admit they are wasting time and their objective is not to change votes, but to waste time. are they hoping someone comes in with controversial news? people at home are probably more baffled than i am. >> ayesha: some might be buying

time, wanting one more thing to pop up. yesterday, the amount of money pete hegseth paid the woman that accused him of sexual assault. it did not move anybody or change or convince anyone. some is buying time, some is just trying, a messaging tool to tell constituents we won't let trump have it easy, we'll make it hard for him. >> lawrence: unbelievable. i can't believe murkowski, trump got 54% of the vote in alaska. pete hegseth wrote the book on the radical nature of the military and deserve to get the nominees. she will have to answer to her voters. susan collins, as well. murkowski did not even vote for brett kavanaugh, no problem

voting for lloyd austin, how will she explain that? looks like pete will not need it, though. >> ainsley: he can afford to lose three republicans and still be confirmed because j.d. vance will come in and a fourth no? >> brian: mitch mcconnell was the worry and he is in. he is in. kristi noem is in. b scott bessent and sean duffy. and mike huckabee, he does not even have a date. you have ambassador to china making rounds this week, important positions in russia, ambassador positions. when you slow up a high-profile person because you are throwing a tantrum, you slow up

everybody. only one train on the track at a time. it is agonizing. so significant to see president trump when questioned, take it in stride, not crying chuck is hurting the country. john thune is a good guy and will figure it out. >> lawrence: he is so busy, he does not have time for nonsense right now. he said, we will do it with or without, i will bypass that. >> ainsley: many are voting because this is who donald trump want. she didn't vote for brett kavanaugh. >> lawrence: i read her statement and there was a lot of allegation in the statement. i don't understand making decision on allegations.

>> ainsley: they said they appreciate his military service, they don't find he is experienced enough. >> brian: they will be problems for next four years and senator collins is up for reelection and only republican in new england senator. if she comes out conservative, she will not get reelected. >> lawrence: i did not focus as much on her, i get the position she's in. there is politics. i do not understand donald trump g gets 54% of the vote and you cant vote for his nomination. >> brian: i get what you're saying. pro-life supporters are marching for march for life. we expect the sitting vice president to attend. trump will address the crowd by video.

>> lawrence: "fox and friends" weekend co-host rachel campos-duffy live from the washington national mall. hi, rachel. >> rachel: good morning, you guys. it is cold out here and a lot of rally goers are waiting until the last minute to come. it is bitterly cold. that will not stop them. they are excited. j.d. vance will come to speak. you have been talking about promises made and promises kept. greatest promise made was donald trump promising to put pro-life supreme court justices at the supreme court and that ended in roe v. wade being overturned. they are excited, they worked hard to get donald trump and j.d. vance into the white house and they are coming together. jd to speak and donald trump giving a video address to the

crowd here. this movement has a next step to make. they overturned roe v. wade and now it is back in the states and they are going, what is next. it is creating greater culture of life. my own daughter has down syndrome, 90% of down syndrome diagnosises end in abortion. one speaker today will be a pro-life obgyn, one important thing this movement is trying to get out to moms to be, hire, get a pro-life obsgyn who sees two patients, not just one. so many moms are scared and their doctor tells them to have an abortion. you have all met valentina, you

know what i'm talking about. >> ainsley: so many viewers who met her, too, she's so cute. >> brian: she's the best. >> rachel: she did pilates for you. >> ainsley: she did. >> brian: to see your family gathered around sean and see him get air perfect score out of committee and saw the wisconsin sup supporters having a big party for him. your family is -- all of america loves your family. >> ainsley: they do, they do. such a dream to have that many kids, so much fun. i know it is busy, but fun. president making first trip of second term stopping in north carolina and los angeles to survey damage from the wildfires and trips come after donald trump expressed frustration with

fema. >> lawrence: jacqui heinrich is live from hard-hit asheville. >> jacqui: recovering from hurricane helene. japanese restaurant behind me is in ruins, rubble is all over the parking lot. early this month, 3000 people were told their hotel vouchers were expiring, they had only days notice, nowhere to go. congressman chuck edwards had to lobby that agency to give people at least 21 days notice. he says they agreed but he's called for agency overhaul and he'll join the president today. president trump did not talk about what he's planning, there are proposals to shift to states or condition it on preparedness following criticism fema has been biassed against

republicans. the agency fired an employee, after telling employees not to visit homes that had trump signs in the yard. >> president trump: our country can no longer deliver basic services in times of emergency, as recently shown by wonderful people of north carolina. been treated so badly. [applause] >> president trump: and other states are suffering from a hurricane that took place many months ago. more recently los angeles, where we're watching fires still tragically burn. from weeks ago, without even a token of defense. >> jacqui: new york times writes, trumps trump says there

are versions of argument calling for states to do more. states want more help not less. cond conditioning aide is a proposal, passed by partisan basis. after california fires which are expected to be most expensive in history, trump threatened to withhold help if the state does not mandate forest and water mandates. governor newsom will greet the president saying he wants to have a conversation. >> brian: hopefully unskcripted moments where people can voice their concern and in california, anything can happen because fires are raging. the governors and president aren't really speaking, no republican outside of dar

darryl issa to meet him on the tarmac. >> lawrence: looking at that footage of north carolina, look at florida, they have hurricanes all the time. ron desantis clears the streets fast. he has line workers to get electricity up. the fact this place looks almost the same as four months ago shows you there is failure of leadership. so glad the president is going to give those hopes some help. as the l.a. fires have gotten in the news, but they feel forgoton about their story and they are dealing with consequences of that storm. >> ainsley: franklin graham was with us at the inauguration and he says a lot needs to be cleaned up. headline in politico, the president will go to north carolina and california. newsom plans to crash l.a.

wildfire visit. gavin newsom says i look forward to welcome the president and making sure all resources he needs for a successful briefing are provided to him, we'll provide for that briefing. it says newsom has been trying to get in touch with them and they have not talked since the president left office in 2020. >> brian: why did you cut the budget? why is your homeless department more than firefighters? why did you not listen to the firefighter union? why was it okay to have a reservoir empty and another not working? why is there no backup plan so fire hydrants would be replenished with a generator. i saw nicole shanahan on last night and said people are running up to gavin newsom saying i've been trying to clear

the brush behind my house, no one is coming up to do it. there is big push from democrats as well as republicans that have been a push to clean up the forests ahead of the guaranteed wildfires. he's got water and forest cleanup he will not address. >> ainsley: guaranteed, we knew this was going to happen. they expect fire and it has not rained for a while. hope there aren't mudslides. they are used to this in california. you have to get forests fixed and have water. >> lawrence: news is that the president is targeting people of california. that is not true. the president said he cares about the people, they are american people, he said, i'm trying to help them. a conversation with gavin newsom is nonstarter unless he releases water from the north, take the brush out.

i told him this years ago and he did not listen and people are struggling. if we're going to have a conversation, those things have to be on the table. gavin newsom will greet the president, i hope he's prepared to have a tough conversation about what they can do to move the state forward. >> brian: they have to make decisions whether to rebuild or if it is too problematic. that is environmental red tape, number three water and insurance. as a country, going to underwrite all of california because they refuse to let carriers raise their rates and carriers pull out. >> ainsley: we'll follow it all day. hand over to carley, who has headlines for us. >> carley: migrant deportation flights ever underway, white house press secretary posted these photos of migrants boarding plane. karoline leavitts they deported

illegal migrants via planes. it is well underway, promises made, promises kept. each plane holds 80 people and took off from biggs army base in el paso and went to guatemala. murder suspect bryan kohberger will be back in court this morning for second day of his pretrial hearing. his defense team is attempting to have all dna evidence thrown out by challenging legality of search warrants. bryan kohberger is charged with stabbing four university of idaho students in 2022. the father of kaylee goncalves joined us earlier. >> nobody wants to go to court with dna at the crime scene under one of the victims, they are trying to get that thrown

out. amazing job keeping this on track and getting it ready to have court in the summer, definitely not for a plea. >> carley: bryan kohberger's trial is set to begin in august. president trump signing executive order to declassify assassination files of j.f.k. and other prominent figures. we spoke to an author about the news this morning. >> i think what the files could have is information the cia knew more about how unhinged oswosw oswald was six weeks before the assassination. american public has a right to know what the government knows about who killed the president. >> carley: president says government officials advised him not to release the material, he says it is long overdue. and kamala harris consulted

hillary clinton about her future, they both lost a presidential election to donald trump. new york magazine reporting in final weeks as vp, harris reached out to carefully selected allies, among them hillary clinton, other would-be first woman president who lost to trump. those are your headlines. over to you. >> brian: a lot to talk about and cry about. hillary clinton is still reading her speech she would have read. >> ainsley: two women, trump beat them both. >> brian: right. okay. >> lawrence: sad. >> brian: all the ways i troubl. >> ainsley: the two women he ran against, that he beat are now talking about what? strategy? how i get over it? what do you think she does? does she run for governor? >> lawrence: i think she runs for governor. >> brian: she's doing what i told her at the border, put on

the jean shirt, roll up the sleeves -- >> ainsley: she put on the jean shirt. >> brian: she uses plastic bags -- >> ainsley: left is all over her for that. >> lawrence: she is not running, she can use plastic bags. >> brian: only problem with her -- >> lawrence: only? >> brian: she's a terrible politician.

get it. >> ainsley: i feel the same way, but we don't want other countries to beat us on crypto and ai. >> dana: i think about the two separate i am interested in surge of electricity these companies need. if we're going to win or pull even with ai race, we have to have more energy and emergency might be only way to do it, environmentalists will try to block you at every turn. >> lawrence: all these smart people are in the white house and talking about this. watch this. >> he's directed our working group to produce regulatory framework to encourage innovation and crypto, in the united states and keeping it onshore rather than offshore. we want innovation happening here in the united states and i think it will happen in the united states because president trump declared the u.s. must be

a fellow marine. how was he? >> honestly, he broke the ice and it wasn't as nerve racking as i thought it would be. it was very nerve racking when i was walking on the stage and i felt a little bit better when i saw everyone and he just made me feel better. i was so nervous. i was very far away from him and i didn't have to step on his feet. that's exactly what he said backstage was i hope you don't step on my feet. i said well, i hope you teach me how to dance. >> ainsley: we were there. lawrence and i watched you dance. how were they selected? we were in a room with thousands and thousands of soldiers and so congratulations on being accepted. i know you had to apply for that and obviously you are a great person and they selected you. what did your family say? you told our producers it brought your family together and your phone was blowing up. in what way did it bring your
