i pray that they'll know in their final months that they're not alone. rich: fans are crowding into new orleans, and we are just a day away from super bowl lix on fox. the kansas city chiefs looking to to become the first team to win three straight super bowls. the city of new orleans has ramped up security to to an unprecedented level.

we'll a take you live to the big easy for the latest including a special appearance from nascar champion joey logano. that's that's coming up. welcome to "fox news live," i'm rich edson. we begin this hour with a fox news alert as president trump and elon musk's doge move to hut down usaid, legal fights are brewing over doge's accesses to government agencies. this as trump praised mix's work with doge -- musk's work with doge last night. lucas tom lynnson has the latest on this. >> reporter: president trump hosting republican senators in palm beach last night. today he's sticking a tee in the ground. as you mentioned, he's praising the work elon musk is doing as well as his doge team. >> it's amazing, actually, what they have exposedded. and to a level where they cut 97% of the people out. the whole thing is a scam. and you look at some of the people working there, they're very political people.

they are relatives, and it's just terrible. >> reporter: in the lower right-hand corner you would have seen the usaid letters getting ripped off the a reagan building here in washington yesterday, rich. a trump-appointed federal judge ruled late cred the hold off putting some 2200 employees on paid leave. last night on jesse watters, a whistleblower highlighted some of the good the organization does. >> this is a classic case where we want to avoid throwing the baby out with the bath weather. usaid a does save babies. that said -- it does. studies he that up to 7 million children have been prevented from being born with hiv by giving drugs to hiv-positive mothers while they're giving childbirth, and that's a wonderful thing. that that a said, there is tremendous waste within the aid industrial complex. this is well known, it's been well, documented, and it's probably not unique to us january aid. it's probably true across the federal government. >> reporter: this morning a federal judge restricted elon

musk's team from accessing a treasury department's payment system. here's doge caucus coof chairman pete segs with -- co-chairman pete sessions with you in the last hour. >> the court system is playing its hand, but you will see soon that the data and information which is gleaned will help america to understand the problems that we have with not just excessive government, but runaway government tactics that were done by the democratic party. >> reporter: president trump is setting down with our own bret baier as part of super bowl pregame coverage tomorrow at 3 p.m., rich. rich: lucas tomlinson live at the white house, thank you. for more on the legal roadblocks, let's bring in former deputy assistant attorney general john yoo to. so there is now the administration, the question as to whether or not they can fire a number of government employees. we've heard they have legal protections, you just can't do it, but the administration seems

to be to doing it. what's going on there? >> rich, great to be with you. the way to understand what's happening is president trump is trying to restore the original powers of the presidency. and one of the most important powers is protecting the national security and foreign affairs. presidents from thomas jefferson all the way through richard nixon, and this is when the decline of the presidency started, have always been able to not spend money if it harms our foreign policy, national security. so president trump, i think, is within his rights to say congress can't force me to give money abroad if it hurts the national security of the united states. we're not going to -- suppose congress said give money to tehran, give money to china, give money to russia. i think president trump, building on the his for call precedents, will say, new york i'm not going to hurt the national security of the united states. so i think he can shut down usaid. plus, one other hinge, it turns out that it looks like the employees of usaid defied direct

presidential orders the stop is shoving money out the door while there was a pause to take a look and see what they were up to. i think the president is trying to restore control of the executive branch, and he's allowed, i think, to dismiss employees who defied presidential orders. rich: what about the creation of these agencies? used aid a, the consumer financial protection bureau -- usaid a, the department of education. these are all entities that congress created, signed into law by the then-president of the united states. wouldn't it then take another a law to get rid of those agencies? >> that that's a great question, rich, and i think that's where congress' powers go. congress can create the agencies. congress can give them missions. it can give them employees, and it can give them money. but they can't force the president to do unconstitutional things. for example, this might be going to department of education, congress can't say give money for racial diversity programs if the president thinks, like

abraham lincoln did, that's unconstitutional. i don't think the congress can force the president to manage agencies ineffectively and inefficiently. what if president trump says i can build a bridge for $500 and congress says, no, waste 20 and spend a billion. i think the president has the ability with all the a examples you gave to run the executive branch in an efficient, effective way and return the money9 ott pax -- to the taxpayers. this is a fight between a congress that wants to waste money and a president that's trying to save money. rich: you know, the constitution gives congress the power of the pursestrings. do you think a court would then say, you know, hey, this is something that the the prerogative of the executive? if. >> no. i don't think that the president has the power of the purse, you're quite right, rich. only congress can make appropriations. if congress gets a direct order -- gives a direct order, you must pend this money on, say, this university or building this bridge and if they force the presidented to do it,

ultimately they can. now, the thing is, here's where i get worried, the courts, i don't know if they should be getting involved in the middle of this, whether courts should be interfering with the president's effort to control everyone when who works in the executive branch who under the constitution and supreme court precedent report to and work only for the president and a congress that's trying to, as you just described, rich, trying to create control other what the executive branch does, trying to interfere with the president's control over the agencies. if you want to impeach president trump for that, congress congress can. but the courts might be treading on dangerous grounds, and these are fights that a have been going on since george washington all the a way to today. rich: what do you make about the executive order on birthright citizenship that's already gone to the court system? do you think that the president has the power to narrow what birthright citizenship is? >> again, this is another example of the interplay between the president, the congress and the courts. right now the law is, and i

think the lower courts are all going to strike down president trump's order because supreme court precedent, i think, clearly says the constitution requires birthright citizenship. but president trump is allowed to to say i have a different view of the the constitution, and i'm going to try to trigger a challenge to the supreme court and try to get the supreme court, try to persuade it to change its mind. now, actually, if you look at president trump's press conference on this, he expressed doubt himself about whether he was going to win on this. i actually think of all the a executive orders i've looked at a, and i've tried to look at most orr -- of them, i think this is the one he's most likely the lose on. 90% of the other ones. rich: okay. john yao, former u.s. stan attorney general, thanks for joining us. >> go, eagles. [laughter] >> the department of education needs the stay, and trump can't do [bleep] without congress. >> in the united states senate, we will not cooperate!

>> we must resist, we must be in the streets! >> we have got to tell elon musk, nobody elected your [bleep] >> the democrats have lost their minds, and they've lost their confidence. they have very little confidence. rich: democrats this week working the block trump's agenda. for more on this, let's bring in today's political panel. with me now is the cofounder of south and hill strategies, colin reid, and shareholder al not earth. man, doge is all the talk of town, isn't it? you know, colin, do you think -- especially when it comes to doge, one of the things democrats and lawsuits have focused on is giving elon musk access to this payment information and the inner workings of the government when he could have serious conflicts of interest. is that a problem? >> in this city is now finally having a conversation that's long overdue about the size and scope of the federal government. we're $37 trillion in the hole. and most people when you talk to them understand that government

spend too much, there's waste spin efficiency. now, the democrats have declared war on the department of government efficiency, ergo, they are putting themselves on the sides of -- side of inefficiency. are there going to be disputes? perhaps. we're finally having a conversation we need to have, and i noticed congresswoman maxine waters yesterday said the security guards, this is our money. we pay your salary. that's just not true. congress doesn't have money. congress gets money from the if taxpayer, and it's taxpayer money, and it just shows the fundamental misunderstanding of how this whole system should work and just the total lack of any sort of fiscal restraint. rich: al, have voters basically said we're not getting what we paid for from the federal government? >> i mean, i think a lot of folks have said that. that was part of president trump's campaign. what they're doing with doge, to some degree it delivers on the promise that a they a made in the fall. when elon musk founded spacex,

he told his engineers the blow up as many rockets as they could to see what worked best. but when you take an entity like usaid, the department of defense which president trump just said doge should focus on, we don't want to blow up every program. we would rather look at things care friday, in a measure -- carefully, in a measured way. the video at the top of the hour pointed out that usaid saved 7 million babies from getting aids. is that a bad thing? if you just fired 13,000 of 14,000 employees, i bet that program's not working right now. yes, there's government with inefficiency. democrats a ought to admit there is bloat in government, number one. but once we admit that, we ought to be fighting for important programs like the one you highlighted on your show is. rich: colin, is there a risk of overreaching from doge? >> possibly, but we're just getting started. al hit on an important point. there is inefficiency in government, but democratic leaders are saying we oppose all

cuts across the board. i think john fetterman, democrat of pennsylvania, said his party's brand is toxic. anything they start to realize how far in the hole they are, they can't offer a counter point of view. rich: we do have senator fetterman discussing the politics around the democratic party right now. take a listen. many. >> why is the democratic party viewed as toxic by so many? even people inside the party acknowledge that. >> i think that their primary currency was shaming and scolding and talking down to people and telling them, hey, i know better than you. rich: al, how did democrats get here, and how do they get out of this position? >> well, first of all, i think senator fetterman is on to something. there is an out of touch sense in the democratic party with respect to rank and file voters. in this last election, we did really well among the highest educated, wealthiest voters. that's the first time that's happened. so that means we're not doing as

well with the voters who supported president trump, the folks who supported republicans in the senate, middle class voters, working class voters across all ethnicities. clearly, we have to rethink our messaging because it's not working. rich: colin, if you were to put yourself in democratic shoes, if you could -- >> glad i'm not. rich: -- do they oppose everything? if should they just kind of sit back and see where this all goes? >> reflexive opposition is not what voters are looking for. the challenges we face are too serious, and we saw this in the 2022 midterms, republicans didn't have a vision of their own. you've pot to offer people something -- got to offer people something. the one who takes trump's arguments and says, yes, i yee this is a problem, but we need a different solution. it's all just opposition to everything he does, and voters just aren't in the mood for that. rich: is president trump has revoked the security clearance for president biden who rejected or revoked the security clearance of president trump,

al. you know, mostly this is very symbolic and it's, i guess, a way of saying the two men really don't have much respect for one another. what do you make of all a of that? >> i think it's symbolic and theatrical which is a lot of what president trump does and a lot of times we jump and grab the bait, which we shouldn't do. let's talk about the fact that, again, doge has gone into and looked at millions of people's private information, number one. number two, they -- the president has fired over 100 people at the federal bureau of investigation. number three, the administration has said to staff of the cia, take a buyout to. so if you think of, say, 25 people when might have taken that buy without with the cia, what were they doing? what important mission were they working on? do we care as a country if our national security has been undermined by these actions? again, that's why i say they're blowing things up. not good for america. but, you're right, colin, that democrats haven't figured out a

way to message on this. >> with we shouldn't be standing many front of buildings yelling, let us in. the federal government is separate from the congress. that's why the separation of powers, they don't have the right to go into those buildings. rich: colin, very quickly, is there a risk here of that happening, of going overboard heard? >> of course. but there's also a risk of doing nothing, and the current status quo is unsustainable. as they all a say, an unsustainable situation won't be sustained. rip rich colin, al, thanks very much. appreciate it. hamas releases three more israeli hostages in exchange for 183 palestinian prisoners after a delay when hamas accused israel of breaking the terms of the cease fire deal. trey yingst is live with more in tel aviv. hi, trey. >> reporter: hey, rich are. good afternoon. three additional hostages were released from gaza today as part of the ceasefire agreement. the men are oh had , orr, and

take control of the gaza strip in order to rehabilitate the territory to a livable location, saying palestinians would be temporarily relocated in order to successfully rebuild. but it's something rights groups have con to demed and many palestinians fear do -- condemned. >> i think president trump has offered to go in and be a part of that solution. and if some other countries willing the step forward and do it themselves, that'd be great. but no one seems to be rushing forward to do that that. there are a lot of of country in the world that like to express if concern about gaza and the palestinian people, but very few willing to do anything concrete about it. >> reporter: the president has suggested that palestinians be taken in by regionallal arab nations such is as egypt and jordan, an idea reject by arab states and and by palestinians. congressman adam smith many spoke with fox earlier saying he agrees with rubio that other countries need to the get involved and work together because the fight and costs of taking over gaza would be overwhelming.

>> it's going to be billions of dollars to rebuild gaza. is the u.s. really going to foot that bill? >> reporter: now, ukrainian officials are also a eager to catch up with marco rubio at that upcoming security conference in germany. to discuss ways how they can end their own conflict with russia. rich if. rich: stephanie bennett, thank you. a maul passenger plane wreck has been found after it was reported missing in alaska thursday. all nine passengers and the pilot are dead. this comes within days of two other deadly plane crashes in the united states. transportation secretary sean duffy said in a post on x that the, quote, ntsb has the full support of the department of transportation and the faa as they conduct the investigation. investigator s say vandal as attempted to start a fire at a tesla dealership just north of denver. after damaging cars and spraying the building with offense ifive graffiti. it all happened early fried friday morning and marked the

but these are federal agencies with some limited bodies. they don't have that much personnel. they're going to have to rely very heavily on the local pd, and that's why you're going to see the new orleans police department, almost certainly you're going to have louisiana state police and other agencies kicking in because this is really a heavy resource drain. and there's a lot you won't see, you know? you're going to have restricted air space, some digital tough going on to try to harden this target and pick up threats. you're going to have snipers, you're going to have the dogs out there, there's some anti-wmd measures. there's a lot. rich: it's only been about phi weeks since there was -- five weeks since there was that terrorist attack in new orleans. local officials say they've made some changes. take a listen. >> there have been significant changes made to the february if. quarter -- french quarter and the downtown area. there's been this expanded security zone in the french quarter that the state and the

city have put in place with additional barricades. rich: paul, do you think they've done enough down there to help hard aen that target for spectators in. >> you know, they likely have. unfortunately, they're very reactive, police departments tend to be k. and as a result of that horrific incident, i'm sure a lot of resources and attention was put into how that happened and how it could ever be prevented again, especially with this event coming up. so i'm sure those are widely placed, there are going to be checkpoints and chokepoints even in the area outside of where the super bowl is, you know, in the area down by the french quarter. and as i said is, there'll be things you don't see, cameras, plate readers, drones, the whole package. this is going to be the very, very heavily secured including some stuff that they're doing because potus is there. and, you know, i'm confident they're going to be able to pull it off. i think it's going to be great,

and the city could use it. rich: what should people keep in mind as they go around the french quarter, the super bowl site? are there tips you have for them to make sure they're safe? >> yeah, i would. and one of them, and it's very endemic to the french quarter, been there many times, you know, the horrific terrorist attack is something that you always have to keep in mind. if you hear gunshots, drop to the ground, all the a other stuff. far more common is something as pro a sayic as a pickpocket. new orleans has a lot of street culture, right? anywhere you go there's a guy playing a guitar, a banjo. pickpockets work those crowds. so just watch your stuff because, you know, while it's not at the level of a terrorist attack, thank god, it's a lot more common. property crimes like that can ruin your vacation. you're in town for a good time, and your wallet, your purse is gone, very, very common. common here in new york, very common in the quarter. just be aware of your surroundings. don't be staring at your phone the whole time.

super cool. you know the pennzoil car's always very well low, but in this case we got a really cool paint scheme. it's a fade job, i call it telephone. [laughter] it's the same scheme, we put it nascar style, and we're running it in the great american race. rich: you've got a big event coming up in may for your foundation. what kind of work do you do? >> yeah. our mission is, we started the joey logano foundation is, our mission is foster children. people rah rah really put their hearts and souls into helping kids that just need some love a lot of times, someone to show that that they care. we work with a lot of great organizations all across the country that help give these kids, you know, a shot in life. people that we work with are contributors, race fans, it's really made a huge impact. i think our foundation's given over $6 million away in that period of time. so we've made some big impact.

that's when the why. you've got to have a reason why you do what you do. driving circles is cool and it's a lot of fun, don't. >> -- don't get me wrong, but is this the most impactful thing i can do with my life? it's been great. rich: that's incredible. there is such a need in the foster care system everywhere in the country. good luck in the upcoming season. >> yeah. thanks for having me on. love watching. see ya. rip rich thanks. it's going down live in the big easy as the nfl on fox team hosts america's super bowl party with performances like jon batiste. the super bowl lix pregame show live at 1 p.m. eastern on fox and streaming on tubi. also on fox, an exclusive interview from chief political anchor bret baier who will sit down with president trump. that's airing at a 3 p.m. tomorrow. be sure to check your local listings. well, the very latest and a

rich: two different storms over the next week could dump snow on millions across america. expected to span multiple states impacting big cities in the northern united states. fox meteorologist and storm specialist mike seidell joins us from boston common. mike, this storm could be the biggest one of the season, no? >> reporter: it certainly could. we've only had two, and they've both been around 5 inches, rich. talk about a snow drought, the past two winters they had 322 inches of snow -- 22 inch, they should have had about 100 inches combined. a little snow from the past storm on the ground but not a whole lot.

temperatures are in the mid if 30s here today. let me show you what's coming. it gets to new york city around a 6 or 7:00 tonight and i moves up into the boston area. we expect snow to fall here at the monocommon by about 10 or 11:00. in new york it's going to fall in about a literally four hours, and same here in boston. it'll all move out by, say, 8 or 9:00 in the morning. there have been a handful of cancellations at the airports, and here many boston we're looking at 5-8 inches of snow, probably a 3-5 inch snowfall in and around the new york city area. we've got the warning here until noon tomorrow. but i want the show you, rich, what happens when it doesn't snow regularly. you've got to freshen up the snow pack as we talked about earlier. look at that snowman back there. that's kind of sad looking. look at that, that needs some help. it's got a small head and a huge abdomen. maybe too many fries. [laughter] we'll be able to freshen that a up, and the sledders will be out here around beacon hill tomorrow morning, it'll be quite a wintry

scene. and really not that much colder tonight, 28 or so for the low. the next storm misses boston but, rich, down your way in d.c., baltimore, look for potentially about 5-6 inches of snow tuesday can and tuesday evening. rich: we can put together our own sad snowman. he's got a buffet to fatten up tonight. mike seidell, really appreciate it. >> reporter: right. rich: let's turn to fox's weather center, meteorologist adam klotz standing by. where will the snow hit the hardest in this one? adam: a hey there, rich. really think the mid-atlantic, probably more so up in the northeast. interesting setup across the country. if you're on the warm side of this system is, it truly is the warm side of this system is. near record-breaking temperatures across the south, the southeast is. 70s, 80s, pushing 90 in some locations. where that warm and cold air are hitting, that is where we're seeing the wintry-type weather. you see the snow moving across the midwest, and here is that

line we're paying attention to, the d.c. area, maybe a little bit of slush coming down as of right now. the more serious rain still several hours away. by the time you get to new york city, 6, 7, 8 p.m.. this is the setup, everything in the pink is where the ice is where it's more a wintry type of mix. it's the northern side that you see more snow. really think interior new england, this is typically where we see the most snow, that is where we're going to see the most snow again. the farther south you are, the more likely to see rain, freezing rain, more of that wintry mix. by sunday still lingering in some interior locations, but largely this system has cleared out. new york city, as you notice, it's going to be melting, 42 degree is the what you climb back up to. ultimately, this gives you a really good sense. everything in the pink, think 5 inches of snow. these lighter blue colors, new york city, a couple inches, on the very high end, maybe 5. and everything further south is when it becomes more of a wintry

mix, so ice ultimately, rich, is one of the big concerns. it's typically the worst of all of these systems. we're not talking about huge snowfall numbers, but it's the ice that causes problems. rich: that is all for this hour of "fox news live." the journal editorial report is coming up next. i'm rich edson, i'll be warm back tomorrow, noon the two. thanks for watching. immune health. and ensure complete with 30 grams of protein.
