republicans worked to enact trump's agenda we're talking to the house majority whip coming up. >> steve: senator elizabeth warren says she has something in common with president trump and elon musk. what is it? we'll tell you straight ahead. >> brian: she reached out to elon musk, too. the second hour of "fox & friends" starts right now. remember, your mornings are better with friends. get dressed. >> brian: president trump keeps his promise to get wokeness out of the united states armed forces as he signs multiple executive orders to reshape the military. >> ainsley: senior white house correspondent peter doocy has all the details. >> peter: good morning. standing here feels like more than a week and a day since president trump was sworn in. because so far and we have got a graphic here. he signed 38 executive orders. and he signed them in the oval office and at an arena and at his resort in florida. the latest ones came last night. and what they do is reinstate troops who refused the covid

vaccine about 8,000 people qum develop iron dome missile. new policy on transgender troops. that is up to pete hegseth, the secretary of defense to figure out how that is going to work. and then ban dei initiatives in the military. >> i will be signing four new executive orders. first correcting our new secretary of defense pete hegseth. he's what we need. to immediately begin the construction of a state of the art iron dome missile defense shield which will be able to protected americans. you see that with israel. where out of 31 rockets they knocked down just about every one of them. so i think the united states is entitled to that. and everything will be made right here in the u.s.a. 100 percent. >> and the trump we'll be back net is growing, treasury secretary was easily confirmed last night. scott bessent got 68 votes. sean duffy for transportation is expected to get bipartisan support as well.

later on today. nothing public on president trump's schedule that we have seen. he is planning to send his press secretary karoline leavitt out to the briefing for her first appearance there. back to you. >> steve: it will be historic. hey, peter, going back to when you were talking about how donald trump revoked the policy allowing trans people to serve in the armed forces. the number of trans people in the armed services right now, i know there was an nih study or estimate done like five years ago at 8,000, who knows how many there are today, what is going to happen to those people? >> peter: sounds like once pete hegseth comes up with the new policy going to be charged. essentially what the argument is and the fact sheet that we were given about that executive order. president trump does not think that transgender people are physically or mentally stable enough to serve in the armed forces. they specifically site readiness

with transition surgeries. if you have a transition surgery, the recovery time and the march particulars that you have to be on as parts of the process, could effect your readiness for up to 12 months. they say that is what their concern is. so, if there is a readiness concern, you're basically booted from the military. >> steve: gotcha. >> lawrence: thanks, peter. >> brian: win for pete to get the job. wokeness out of the military. dei is going to be history. going to enforce it and goodbye dei veterans affairs. 60 dei over at veterans affairs with salaries totaling more than $8 million we're told they're done. there's no need. if you talk about cutting. they are cutting dei programs everywhere. but especially in the military. and i thought pete said something interesting on the steps yesterday. i'm going to enforce it to make sure you are not going around me. when it comes to the tuskegee airmen they thought that was a

little -- that was passive aggressive. we will cut that off because that's dei. no, it isn't. it's a fantastic military story about the first black fighter pilot. >> lawrence: it was intentionally cut to try to cut the knees out of this administration. >> brian: make it seem racially. >> lawrence: make pete seem like a racist. the whole point of the tuskegee airmen is their merit and acknowledging their merit. i'm just glad that we finally got a pentagon that is worried about metrics and the metrics have to be can you do the o course. can you do the job? are you lethal enough? can you go after the enemy? do you have the mental capacity to decipher the enemy versus friend? that's all i want. i don't care about getting rim. in i don't care about getting diversity numbers in. i want to be feared by the world and finally we have people in there that's willing to do that. >> steve: all about defense. >> ainsley: donald trump also

signed an executive order say going you lost your military career and 8,000 people did because they refused to have the vaccine then you could be reinstated with back pay. we interviewed lt. colonel douglas hague. he served our country in the army. he was two years away from retirement. and he said he resigned from the military when they were forcing him to do this. he didn't want to say i'm going to claim an exemption like a religious exemption because he said that wasn't true. because they were kicking him out he just said he resigned. he is not sure is he eligible for the reinstatement. this is what he said about donald trump and what he went through. >> i think me, like many others, were exstatic at the idea. the potential to spent 18 years active duty service my adult hood. i lost that now there is the potential to regain it now. very appreciative.

i'm thankful that president trump made these promises early on and is now following through with them. so i didn't want to get the vaccine. it was -- i made it clearly early on in my, you know, before the mandate actually to my leadership that i was not planning to get it once it was mandated i told them i wasn't going to and i submitted my resignation. me, personally, i love the idea of going back to the service it's what i'm passionate about. >> ainsley: he was an officer. this is what he dead for our country. officer for the army. airborne school. served as infantry officer. communications officer, two deployments to iraq. one in kuwait and rejoined as drilling reservist when that mandate was finally dropped. so i hope he is eligible i hope they do case-by-case basis. if you retired or resigned because of that mandate. then hopefully can you go back and serve and get that back pay. >> brian: add this before we move on from defense. the president brought it up in every speech and no one reported

it because they were more into finding something controversial about campaign remarks. he said i signed an executive order. iron dome for this country. missile defense. keep up with the next hypersonics make sure it's not outdated. going to need constant improvement. i watched what was happening with israel. i saw them knock down all those missiles coming from iran. i have seen it happen regularly what is hang in ukraine. why don't we have it in our country. going to cost something like 2 auto $50 billion. congress has to green light it. he wants work to start right away. who in this country would not want missile defense? especially with icbms being shot by no north korea. rumsfeld talked about it you are crazy the technology is not there it was not crazy. he was right with the concept. i think we are there. i don't know how you guard a country this big. but i'm sure there are some scientists that we could focus on. >> lawrence: combination of that idea is we got to get with these drones. we got to figure out how they

are able to fly who they are. i want technology. i want r and i into that as well. >> steve: peter doocy asked the president about it on the first night. he said susie wiles the chief of staff. >> lawrence: get to the bottom of it. >> steve: let's see what happens. pete hegseth our secretary of defense was confirmed over the weekend. and then yesterday, our brand new secretary of treasury, scott bessent was confirmed and so, you know, what's interesting is all the stuff that pete hegseth put in his book we know that scott bessent wants to make america great again. and donald trump, he essentially and we had one of the guests on yesterday, brian mast was talking a little bit about how donald trump was going to go republican retreat at doral down in florida. essentially as the quarterback. to motivate the team. well, the team has gotten one big john. a-job.tax cuts border and energ.

and essentially it depends on who you talk to. they are either going to have one or two bills. the senate would like two bills. mike johnson yesterday talked to everybody it's got to be one bill, the ways and means guy jason smith said one bill. here is donald trump last night motivating the troops and for the people who have texted us asking what's the president going to do about no tax on tips or social security or overtime, he didn't forget. watch. >> i'm also eager to get to work with congress and the largest package of tax cuts and reforms in american history, we got to get that done and don't want to get hung up one bills, two bills, i don't care. two bills work it out one way or the other. bottom line the end result is going to be the same. we want to have all of those

benefits tax cuts and make them lower. not only must we permanently extend the trump tax cuts. if we don't you will have a 60% tax increase. but i also intend to keep my promises starting with no tax on tips. no tax on social security and no tax on overtime. we're working very hard to get them done. >> brian: the key is if you are going to have no tax on tips and overtime and social security that's fine and put the salt tax back in that's okay. but how do you pay for it. >> steve: offsets. >> brian: you could say growth. you could say tax increases. that's not going to fly. got to find a way. the salt was a big equalizer when it came to that tax reform last time. they took the states with the high individual taxes. say taxes and say can you no longer write that off. that brought the revenue up. now if you come back and tell new york and california the high tax states you can now write that off, it's going to blow a hole in the equation as they go to do tax reform again.

>> lawrence: new york congressional delegation that put a red line in it. >> steve: right. >> lawrence: they want it back. >> steve: they're going to get something. >> lawrence: honestly, i don't think it's fair at all. i don't think that we should have to compensate. >> brian: do you know what their argument is that they give more money. more money to the federal government. so, therefore, they want to be able to take that back. >> ainsley: donald trump said on the campaign trail it's all about energy. he said that's how you make more money for our country. if you lower the cost of gases gas it effects every single person. hopefully that would increase enough. >> it is. it donald trump got elected why haven't prices gone down something called bird flu effect the cost of eggs. >> steve: i went to shop right in suburban new york in new jersey yesterday. we always buy the really good eggs, they are called vital farms.

they are normally $6 a dozen. yesterday do you know how much they were? $12 eggs were a dollar an egg? >> lawrence: you got to make sure you get the pasture raised. >> ainsley: free range. >> lawrence: not refree range pasture. >> steve: all the eggs were much higher prices shop right put a sign excuse us but we have got to jack up the prices because of avian flu. bird flu. it's about bird flu when you listen democrats talk about eggs apiece. >> tell you all right now they do not give a damn about the cost of eggs. >> eggs in my district are $9.19. the 200 executive orders that we have seen this week, is missing any mention, any mention of lowering the grocery prices for our families. >> when president trump pardoned all the january 6th rioters, now

to get rid of independent inspector generals. how is any of this going to lower grocery prices. >> there are a lot of folks struggling to make it to the end of the month. prices are going up. price of eggs 3.65 last november. latest i have seen is 4.25. his failure to even try to move in the direction of lowering costs is a betrayal of the american people. >> brian: i'm sure that's not hyperbolic at all. it's been a week. he betrayed the american people. >> lawrence: not just that, brian. we had a whole presidential race. all of these people were on the campaign trail. none of them said anything about the price of anything. talking points have changed when someone else is in charge for week. >> brian: free range chickens does that mean during their lifetime they are allowed to run wild? >> steve: cage-free. >> brian: they are not in a cage so happier; more eggs?

nicer eggs? what is the theory? >> lawrence: it's more humane. >> brian: how does it relate to the egg? >> lawrence: they can eat all the other stuff. >> brian: eggs are better for you? better life give us better results? >> ainsley: think if you were locked up in a cage versus running around outside, you're going to be healthier and happier. >> brian: i want chickens to be happy. i want to know how it effects the egg. >> ainsley: body. the body is healthier. >> steve: whatever the chicken eats is essentially what you are going to wind up getting in the egg. so the healthier the environment and the stuff they eat, the better. >> brian: can i just say this? every egg looks alike. >> steve: no they don't. no, no. no. brian, that is why. >> brian: shells are different. >> steve: that is why we buy the vital farms. the yellow in it is a beautiful amber. it's like an egg from the 50's. >> brian: yellow better? >> steve: it's amber. brian, can i show you cheap

eggs, inexpensive eggs. >> lawrence: he doesn't cook. >> brian: i eat eggs] rooster crowing] >> carley: to many egg terms. steve eggs exactly. >> brian: how would you like my chicken? it wasn't in a cage, wink, wink. >> ainsley: you can't lie. >> lawrence: no you cannot. >> brian: my chicken has never been locked up. i catch him every day. >> carley: can i make a case for milk? too many milks? everything is being milked. nut milk, soy milk, almond milk. >> lawrence: skim. >> steve: it's a whole milk as you know with brock the debate is what. >> carley: i never bought more milk in my life. that child runs on milk. >> ainsley: organic and do 2% for her now. i used to do the whole. what do you give to him?

>> carley: whole. there is a difference in eggs. >> brian: no difference. >> steve: brian, there is a room in your house, it is called the kitchen. that's where cooking happens. you should go in some time. >> carley: we have some more news to get. to say starting out in california. the number of dead from the los angeles wildfires has risen to 29. that's according to the county medical examiner's office. and for the first time since the devastating fires started all pacific palisades residents are now allowed to return to their homes or what's left of them. will palisades fire destroyed over 23,000 acres and is now 95% contained in just hours private aerospace company is trying to break the sound barrier. holding a test flight 11:00 a.m. eastern time. super sonic speed is measured at 768 miles per hour or faster. at those speeds the plane could

>> steve: carley, that is so important, over the last couple months we have been talking about how many people in washington do work from home. and if they are working from home why is washington spending 500 bucks a square foot for a desk that nobody ever goes to. >> carley: a lot of electricity to keep those lights on. >> ainsley: isn't he saying now everybody has to go back to work? >> steve: yeah. >> ainsley: what offices are they going to use if they close down buildings? >> steve: it depends. >> lawrence: not just the government. a lot of people in the private sector are doing the same thing. my full class. now a lot of people are complaining because they have to go back to work. and i like it because it's not so full anymore. back to work. >> ainsley: they have to go back to work instead of getting paid to take a workout class. >> lawrence: they were cheating online see them with their phones. >> steve: zooming. >> lawrence: now they got to go back to work. >> brian: dawn just wrote me we buy cage-free eggs. caged eggs, i like the caged

eggs. >> steve: if they don't say cage-free they are caged. >> brian: implied. steve the guy in charge of cutting the government fat and finding efficiencies elon musk, as it turns out elizabeth warren the senior senator from the commonwealth of massachusetts agrees with elon. she wrote in a fox news digital story that instead of cutting help for people who rely on medicare, social security and the v.a. let's focus on the billionaires and billionaire corporations who are feasting off the american taxpayer. qui improve our financial position by making millionaires and billionaires pay their fair share, whatever that means, by closing just one big estate tax exemption loophole. the u.s. government can save another $60 billion a year. so she is for government efficiency just at the expense of whatever tax exemption she is talking about. >> lawrence: this is totally not what doge is about. doge has nothing to do with collecting more tax revenue. it's about getting rid of

programs that are straining our tax dollars. >> ainsley: that we don't need. >> lawrence: exactly. >> ainsley: wasteful spending. >> lawrence: i don't think she is willing to work with elon she totally doesn't get the purpose. >> brian: scott bessent on my radio show about 25 times over the last two years. is he concerned about elizabeth warren that's income inequality. he is concerned that there is too much of a gap between the very rich and the working class. because it hasn't grown as quick. i would love to see that ideologically attacked by economists. not by politicians. to find a way to respond. >> lawrence: someone that's in the business world that's not just going to say hey, let's raise the minimum wage and somehow that's going to fix everything. >> brian: what doesn't? >> steve: what she is looking for along with bernie sanders is income redistribution. okay. you got so much money, you need to pay x percent on your total wealth for the rest of your life. which they have already paid tax once.

>> ainsley: works 40 plus hours a week is supposed to give more money for the guy who wants to cheat the system and go to the workout class instead of going to the office. she wants everyone to be equal. >> brian: i think it is the top 10% the richest people in the country pay 70% of all the taxes. >> lawrence: this is true. >> ainsley: definitely true. >> brian: i don't think hamstringing them is the issue. let's grow the economy. >> ainsley: why not a tax cut for all like donald trump says. it's not just for rich people. it's for everybody. extend the trump tax cuts did you all get that in his soundbite? he said if we don't extend that tax cut, you're going to have about a 60% tax increase. who can afford that? >> steve: the difference between the really super rich and the people at the lower end of the food chain,really rich people have money. and that's why the elizabeth warren and bernie sanders are going after them. they are not going to miss -- >> lawrence: i do like setting a climate for the business community where they can

actually pay their customers -- i'm sorry their employees more. right now they can't afford to. they are barely keeping the lights on right now. they can't afford to give actual money to employees. >> brian: goldman sachs $39 million as his bonus. evidently everyone at goldman sachs got less than they ever did before. to me fundamentally not that the people at goldman saks are hurting but you walk in not making an a lot of money as entry level salary if you are pulling the same way. ceo i'm not taking $39 million and cutting my workforce a smaller check. i'm just not doing it. >> steve: do you know where goldman sachs is moving one of their main financial hubs? dallas, texas. >> brian: there did you go. >> ainsley: tax free state. >> steve: coming up. >> brian: that was steve's voice intone nation i should read. president trump is calling on republicans to stand united in florida on ways to move the president's agenda forward. tom ehmer on how he will whip

existing that we had innovated here in the united states. i want to see how they innovate on their own when a.i. goes to the next level. you got something new and interesting. puts that out and see what you can do. you took something existing and did it cheaper? that's the story of tech. so i don't think it was this huge watershed moment. i do agree with president trump though. the last four years we sat on our heels, executive orders, holding back a.i. and technology in this country. we can't have that anymore. >> steve: right. >> that's why he was an a.i. czar. >> exactly when you talk about in the beginning technology costs a lot. remember the first computers? i remember when the first pulsar watch came out. you know, in the 1970s, i think it was $2,000. now you can buy them for 20 bucks and they work the same way. what is interesting about this situation though, this a.i. was developed by a hedge fund company. >> right. >> steve: and the timing that it comes out the same day donald trump is gna inaugurated does nt

seem to be an accident. >> not at all. probably trying to make a lot of money here and they will as a result of this and trying to send us a message which is we are not asleep at the wheel. listen, nobody discredited china or thought they weren't working on this. in fact many people in the industry and wall street said the united states is the best innovator on the globe. we have got to get ahead of this. but we have got a president who is holding us back? how can this be? >> steve: great point. what about this? this deepseek was the number one app. on the google store and on the apple store yesterday. do you trust it? >> i don't trust it. we were talking about this in the break. i don't have tiktok. i don't want anything on my phone that could potentially be monitor and by the way if you are using chatgpt for an assignment or whatever people use it for you want accurate information. if you ask about china, they're going to tell you xi jinping with the most amazing human being in the world. there are no human rights violations steve is he is so handful some. >> google or some of the

companies here when think were being a bit more biased. >> steve: exit question. we have a vast viewing audience. retired living on their savings and whatnot. >> yeah. >> steve: when they see that gigantic sell off yesterday like we haven't seen in a couple of years. their 401(k) they are afraid to look at it because they probably know it's a 201 k today. >> it's probably going to bounce back. talking about retired people or a later time. i would never tell you invest. >> steve: high flier. >> overall market conditions are probably going to continue to improve. this was a small bounce to the counsel side yesterday. already futures are up and also nvidia stock is up. this is a good opportunity to buy. so i'm not hitting the panic button. that's me. >> steve: look at you. you answered all that stuff. i didn't realize that you had worked in technology in wall street. i knew about the wall street part. interesting. jackie, thank you very much. >> thanks.

>> steve: catch her show every day at noon on fox business network. >> bigger show. big money. >> steve: it's the biggest show. >> yeah. >> steve: bigly. thanks, jackie. next up, we are going to break down all the major cultural changes coming to the defense department after team trump looks to strengthen our military and boost morale. ♪ i had the worst dream last night. you were in a car crash and the kids and i were on our own. that's awful, hon. my brother was saying he got life insurance from ethos. and he got $2 million in

♪ >> lawrence: so president trump signing four new military focus executive orders including one that calls to remove dei in the military and another banning transgender service members. watch. >> and in a little while i will be signing four new executive orders. first is that i will be directing our new secretary of defense pete hegseth is who going to be great by the way. we will get transgender ideology the hell out of our military. it's going to be gone in addition stop our service members being indoctrinated rad left critical race theory. >> lawrence: staff sergeant david bellavia joins us now. thanks so much for getting up with us this morning, david. >> thank you. appreciate you. >> lawrence: obviously excited to have pete hegseth secretary of defense secretary. what do you make of these new

changes, getting rid of the di:r is hell? i can't even tell you how deficit stating joe biden and democrats have been to the dod knowingly, gutting our e ethos. who we are. making us try to think about whether or not we are the bad guy or the good guy. you know, we talk about this transgender ban. this isn't a transgender ban. this is clearly stating that if you cannot deploy and fight, that we don't want you in the military. which is equivalent of saying to our pilots if you can't see, we don't want you behind the yoke of an f-16 charlie. we don't want you f-22 transgender soldiers right now whether you are on hormones or non-deployable for 36 months after a transition surgery,

well, who are you fighting for? what do you do? are you there for you or are you there for your country and your teammates? this is all about taking the selfishness out of serving your country and reminding people it's all about the community. it's all about the team. it's all about the country. and i'm ashamed that it took executive orders to remind our greatest military in the world who we are and what we do. >> lawrence: so incredible. you just laid it out perfectly about what the standards should be. and it should be no different based on what box you check. here's secretary hegseth is going to take some getting used to laying out the major plan. watch. >> today there are more executive orders coming. we fully support on removing dei inside the pentagon. our job is lethality and readiness and war-fighting. we are going to hold people accountable. >> lawrence: i mean he wrote a book about it. expect major changes. >> yeah.

i mean, really that book is the bedrock of what if you want to know secretary of defense stands, it's all in black and white. but, i mean, the key, again, if that the chinese, the russians, iran, identifies, al qaeda, when we go to the battlefield none of these things about a kinder, gentler world, we all want peace. no one wants war. but we will be ready to wipe you off the face of the planet if you want to hurt our citizens or our allies and our friends. that's the entire subject matter. whifts in school, lawrence, like you, what was the main line of the paragraph? it's this is what we do in the military. we will break you. and we will force you to change your opinion. that's what this is all about. and we can't do it by making ourselves feel good about who we want to be. no more of this petri dish mentality. we are a warrior class.

we have to be that to keep america safe. >> lawrence: all the door kickers i speak with men like you, they all have this reignited donald trump and hegseth leading the way. thank you so much for joining the this morning. >> thank you, god bless. >> lawrence: all right. carley, looks like you have got some headlines. >> carley: check out this wild moment from last night's game between the hawks and timberwolves. a piece of the arena's jumbotron fell onto the court, landing on rudy's head. oh boy. the 35-year-old target center minneapolis is the second oldest venue in the league. maybe time for some updates. now to tiger woods' new high tech golf club. led by woods narrowly beat boston common golf and its captain rory mcilroy. >> one of the visions when we started to try to he engage that younger demographic and give

them a bite size version of golf. it's for more entertaining. more for the growth of the game. >> carley: mcilroy's team take on the los angeles golf club in the next tgl matchup. check this out custom made footballs for super bowl lix are already on their way to new orleans. workers at the wilson sporting goods factory in ohio worked over the past two days to get them ready for the big game. and you, of course, can watch that game sunday february 9th on fox as patrick mahomes and the chiefs go for historic three-peat against jaylen hurts and the eagles. who is going to win? only time will tell. lawrence over to you. >> lawrence: there is a texas man that's the quarterback of one of those teams. >> carley: that's what you are going for? >> lawrence: you know. >> carley: i hear you. >> lawrence: thanks, carley. >> carley: you are welcome. >> lawrence: all right. we have one more hour of "fox & friends" for you straight ahead. ben hall, judge judge jeanine.
