5:18 am
government is not asking locals or states to help them with all deportations. they're saying when you have a criminal migrant in custody that committed, violent offences, murder, anything like that to just hold them in prison so they can go pick them up and take them into custody. they're not asking them to go on raids or anything like that or hold people for nonviolent offences. violent offences, keep them in custody. that's it. >> the -- the venezuelan gang. they did admit they were letting go some illegal alien -- illegal aliens. so he was arresting them in some people at border patrol were letting them go and now we've gotten past that. >> one thing now is there some holdovers from the last administration that are still in key positions and our obstructive. we saw in the pentagon and they're having a clean house. it's going to take some time and there's going to be some bumps in the roads but i think the
5:19 am
outlook has been productive. >> were sitting in a sanctuary city. >> we have a mayor that does not want to be so that's important. you have something important to say. >> i certainly do. brian, ainsley, lawrence. happening today from massachusetts new jersey and connecticut will be speaking to the press ahead of the hearing on the lawsuit challenging president trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship. that hearing kicks off in less than two hours in a boston federal court room. claiming trump supporter violates the 14th amendment which gives a constitutional right of citizenship to all children born in the country. the trump administration reportedly planning daily migrant flights to guantánamo bay. home end secretary noem shares these photos while providing details about a second flight of criminal illegal migrants taken yesterday. noem said all of them are known

>> former speaker of the house nancy pelosi giving a short response when faced with joe biden's disappointment over pelosi's roll -- joe buck biden's disappointment... turning to her favorite scapegoat, donald trump. >> former first lady joe biden has spoken out saying she was disappointed in you. is there any way to patch that up? have you spoken? >> i certainly hope so. the fact is we are all on a mission for the american people. i think it would be important for the children to not have donald trump be president of the united states. and that is -- i would take
5:28 am
every step necessary to make sure that didn't happen but it did. now we have to deal with it. >> townhall.com editor on fox news contributor joins us now. >> good morning. great to see you. >> good to see you. to me it was -- he did not want that question and knew it would probably come so she was prepared for it by giving a short answer. and she goes into donald trump and pivots and talks about how it's important for the children. what you think we. >> as they say in washington if you want a friend, got a dog. joe biden is upset that nancy pelosi helped push her husband off the campaign trail and it further exposes this lie that joe biden was voluntarily left his second run for the white house, that it was a courageous decision on his part on behalf of the american people to leave. the fact is nancy pelosi and barack obama and george clooney were behind his ousting and
5:29 am
tried to do it covertly at the beginning and then not so covertly near the end because biden refused to go. but they made a big bet. they bet the next candidate, they weren't sure it was going to be kamala harris would be able to beat donald trump and they lost on for her to go into this weird statement about the children. did she not watch the press conference earlier? or the executive order signing earlier this week with president trump at the white house surrounded by little girls who don't want men in their locker rooms, invading their space, stealing their titles and scholarships away from them and their hopes and dreams in terms of female athletics. she doesn't want to talk about it and she's worried now about what joe biden might write in a buck or joe biden now that he has a talent agency may expose about the democratic party as they try to get their feet under them for their future. >> she was asked about the future of the party inside about six or seven months you will see such a change but they still
5:30 am
went with ken martin is the head of the dnc. is very progressive, the party chair of minnesota. >> he's declined the police, anti- law enforcement, anti-trump. that's not change, that's doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result and that's called insanity and that's what the democrats are doing. you look at the retreat they had in dc last week, the things they're fighting over. gender pronouns still, they haven't woken up at all about what the american people really want. >> sorry to interrupt you. i keep hearing nancy pelosi, were seeing the faces of the democratic party. chuck schumer, yelling into the microphone. i think america's like we're tired of the same faces. were tired of these progressive ideology, collecting these people who want the most progressive things for our country. what's the message that the democratic party needs to have so they can reconnect?
5:31 am
>> i think you could point to democratic senator futterman who said we don't need to have our hair on fire for everything the president does especially when it comes to something like u.s. aid which is something the american people overwhelmingly support cutting. when you look at trump's agenda so far, it's not far right or not -- necessarily super conservative. as he calls it, it's common sense and the american people are with him but democrats are so anxiety ridden over what they've accomplished by pushing biden out of the race. >> thank you so much. did you hear we have tom brady coming up? we're excited. >> i'm sorry i'm not as handsome as tom brady but i will warm up the seat for him. [laughter] >> thank you so much katie. we appreciate it. it's far from his first super bowl but it be as first time calling the big game. seven-time champion and fox sports analyst tom brady is live on fox & friends from new

>> in two days the philadelphia eagles will take on the kansas city chiefs in the super bowl on fox as the chiefs go for a historic three-peat. >> there's a lot of new things to the game including seven-time champion as lead analyst tom brady. the seven-time champ who played in ten joins us now. i know you've been down this road as a fan into player. as a broadcaster, how have you prepared for this one over the rest of the games this season?
5:38 am
>> i've been studying a lot of film and reading the different packets of information i got end trying to make my notes and to be really prepared for anything that can happen. i think the difference as a player you're really prepared for one side of the ball. as a broadcaster you prepare for both fences, both the fences. there's a lot of things you have on your sheet that you really want to get to but the reality, even for this being a long game i cannot get to the stuff that i've prepared for but i'm really looking forward to a great game. both teams had unique journeys to get to this point but they're both so deserving to be here in new orleans playing for a world championship. >> you did a podcast recently and talked about how tough it is going against magnolia the defensive coordinator and how all the film he watched over the years. talk about that challenge in this game and something that the equal -- eagles will have to
5:39 am
overcome. >> he's a phenomenal defensive coach and i said earlier in the season, he's the bane of my existence. when we were in a production meeting yesterday -- the other day chris jones said we hired him because he's the one that could beat you. and they brought him in and 2019 and have had a magical run with him as leading that the transcend they are very challenging defense to go against. they put a lot of pressure on the opposing quarterback and the eagles offense of line. they have so many unique blitzes and different alignments and how the coach calls the game, you have to be on high alert if you're the eagles offense of line at quarterback. he'll put a lot of pressure on those guys to be right in their communication all the time. i'm sure there will be plenty of times where those blitzes will be really successful and they'll get the hurts and he has to make good decisions with the ball so they don't create any unnecessary turnovers because that's the story of the game.
5:40 am
possession of the football to me will determine the outcome of this game. >> it's so amazing to have you in the fox family. we were excited win you signed that contract. welcome to the team. i can't believe we're talking to you because we followed your career what you did for the patriots and in tampa was remarkable and we saw you retire and come back and i'm sure it was a hard decision to make but being in the box, is that hard? is it difficult to not be on the field? >> i look back on my playing career and i feel like there was nothing left in the tank. i love to throw the football and still do that all the time and it will always be something i love to do. football was truly my first love and i love competing at the highest level but i loved all the elements that came with playing football. the camaraderie and trying to master yourself and your physical skill, trying to master the preparation of the game. i always got myself to an
5:41 am
emotional feverish pitch by game day. i knew i was only competing for three hours a week, i wanted to be at my very best and i tried to take that approach every day in practice so i could be prepared for moments like this. the super bowl preparation did not start for these teams after the championship games. they started in the summertime. six, seven months ago when these teams came together they had a belief they would be here in this moment and that's ultimately what they're preparing for and that's what championship organizations are about. you don't wait for big moments for them to become big moments. you love those moments every day like they are big moments of your prepared when the moment arises. if you want to deal with pressure, you'd better put pressure on yourself all the time to succeed and if you do that you will put yourself like these teams are now, in this place with this opportunity to go out there and win this world championship. >> there's so many preparations. with the ten super bowls you've
5:42 am
been in, you've always made eye contact with people and try to answer and be respectful but this one young man asked you this question in 2017 and it really stuck out with us. let's watch. >> is my hero? it's a great question. i think my dad is my hero because he's someone i look up to every day and -- my dad. so, yeah. >> that was a young kid asking you a question and it caught you. does that bring you back than of the journey you went through to be where you are today? >> i was so blessed to have a mom and dad that supported my
5:43 am
athletic and career journey every step of the way. i had a great foundation about family and about commitments, support for one another. at the time my mom was battling cancer. my dad was there supporting my mom through her treatments. it was a very challenging time for our family and i just think about my dad and the commitment he's made to her, my sisters, to myself, to his grandkids. he's the greatest man i've ever known and i still feel that way. i try to make him proud and everything that i do and when you have an example like that like i did with my dad, i could just take what he taught me and try to be that kind of dad that i am for my kids. that's ultimately -- go ahead. >> to that point i guess the question you have all this experience and now you're in the booth.
5:44 am
what's the one piece of advice you'd give to these players? some of them it's a first i'm going to the super bowl. the peace of advice you wish someone would've told you for that first moment. what would you tell them? >> i think a big part of this experience ultimately comes down to what you do on game day. all of these things are really nice and getting the logistics done and the tickets and being part of the super bowl extravaganza is awesome. it's really an event and bring so many families together. so many players will reflect on the times where they were playing in the game and they were there at home with a barbecue and all the dips and chips and all the food. now there in this moment. what they remember from this week will ultimately be the game. all these other things are great but do everything you can turn not let anything get in the way of your preparation. it still goes from now up until game time, there's a lot of
5:45 am
things that can distract you or take your mind away from what ultimately the goal is. the goal is to go out and win the game. whatever it takes or however long it takes, these guys need to be locked in. it ends up being about a four hour game and everything they can do to conserve their energy to be prepared when it matters most, that's where they need to lock in. >> your parents clearly did a great job with you. for all of us raising kids, what advice do you have for our children were maybe too scared to take their sport to the next level or a little too lazy to finish all of their homework. what advice do you have for the young people that look up to you? >> i was very much under normal american kid that wanted to grow up and chase my dreams. my parents never kind of tempered my expectations for what i thought i could accomplish. what i wanted to go to michigan, it might be too hard for you, you should probably pick a school burial play earlier as a
5:46 am
freshman. i always had this belief that i could do it on my parents a whole time said you can do it absolutely. i was one of the slowest players at the nfl combine when i got drafted by the new england patriots on my mom said honeycutt you are so fast. you get on the field and you can run and certainly i know i couldn't. i said you're very biased towards your own son but i think the reality is they never -- there was never a plan b for me and i never had to deal with that. they supported me and i got a belief in myself. you need people to believe in you even when you don't have the most confidence in yourself. if you're surrounded by people that love you and are there for you when you fail, the reality is in life when we try things that are very difficult, we do fail. because they are hard. when they're hard and you overcome them, you learned a lot about yourself. if you can apply those things going forward to accomplish what you want, you'll gain a lot of self-esteem and a lot of self-confidence.
5:47 am
i've always felt trying things outside of my comfort zone ended up being the best things in my life. when i did fail it was the biggest blessing in my life. >> reading your story and you talk about it. a coach walked up to you inside your practices are your games. take every single practice like they're your games and sure enough in a couple of years -- you still had to split the games in college often times and when you got to the pros. do you think part of your successes the chip on your shoulder from being a sixth round draft pick? >> absolutely. i feel like overcoming the challenges of adversities i had weather and high school or in college allowed me to be the professional athlete that i was. i learned a lot of things through failing that a lot of guys didn't learn through high school and college because they were the best athletes the sustainable qualities you have as an athlete like your work ethic and your discipline, like your determination and

in the end over the course of 140 play game on both sides of the ball, the players have plenty of opportunities to go out and make an impact on the game winning or losing and that's what i'm excited to see sunday night. >> your you're best game in the championship game and sign your contract -- you took a year off before you started. now the one year is done. have you enjoyed it? has this been what you thought and something you will want to do long-term? >> and have you gotten used to the producers talking in your ear? >> there's a lot of that. there's an art and science. you guys are so great and are on every day doing you're best. i think the more redundant, the more comfortable i've gotten with it and it's something i will continue to get comfortable doing and the more comfortable and gotten, the more relaxed i've gotten and ultimately it sounds more and more like myself. i really believe in those 10,000 hours you need to practice in order to be truly great at
