east coast and 8:00 in los angeles and this is america's late news. fox news @ night. resident trumpet raising tariffs laying down the gauntlet. they could be entering a new chapter based on fairness. >> they are charging us vastly more than we charge them. of those days are over. >> this isn't left or right it's an american thing and another when for maga. >> every 20 years of gotten up in the morning on my knees and prayed god would put me in a physician where i could end of the childhood chronic epidemic disease in the country and on august third of last year god sent me president trump. rfk jr. confirmed and sworn in
8:02 pm
as it marked the beginning of a healthy america and the end of the years long democratic smear campaign and money was put into the campaign against rfk and you know what with the money spent to stop the movement we are unstoppable and looking at the irs imagine an audit for the auditors what's this in the fox news @ night common sense department think that the former most trusted name in news failed to land the big lesson of last year's election which is when all you do is trash trump you go the way of biden-harris. a common sense has a new fan. maybe not "the new york times" taking a dig at your favorite
8:03 pm
department we are glad there watching but not listening. we respond in moments but first kevin corke live in d.c. and getting a taste of their own medicine. and a lengthy press conference but the story of the day was reciprocal tariffs and they did order federal agencies and looking at how they could match those coming in from other countries look at automotive tariffs between the u.s. and e.u. and to bring a car into the e.u. from the u.s. they charge us 10% and bringing them over from the e.u. and sell them there we only charge them 2.5
8:04 pm
percent tariffs you can see it's pretty one-sided totally unfair especially considering and they exported 700,000 vehicles while the u.s. sent over 270,000 vehicles to europe. again just one example of why the president says it's high time to match tariff for tariff across circle prices could go up somewhat short term but also go down and nobody knows what is going to happen other than we know jobs will be produced at levels never seen before this is the government began firing hundreds of people in multiple agencies today and doing trump administration efforts to streamline federal job positions and cut costs. termination emails were sent out over the last hours for federal
8:05 pm
8:06 pm
tariffs price for americans will come down our production is going up in cost is going down it's a to e street that's what's called reciprocal and it's a fair bet they might very well drop down what do you think? >> it's about fair trade not free-trade what we saw is it's not just campaign slogan being implement it into his economic policy specifically and we've seen the past four years under the biden-harris of administration we saw they weren't taking this is seriously and so they went to manning that on a global stage but now eva president doing that and a very basic question to the former administrator of u.s. aid watch the back-and-forth and $20,000 for diversity recursion events what is a diversity recruitment
8:07 pm
event in the middle of the jungle no idea. if the administration doesn't know who does only in washington can you spend billions and they will defend it they work very hard for their money and we are sick and tired of it going to frivolous programs abroad. that's why we look to root out the corruption and waste in the government. we should invest in keeping this in our pockets were talking about illegal immigration right and this is jose fernandez perez with forcible of a child and they ignored them and on pretrial conditions and wheat
8:08 pm
they finally got him but of no help from the state of massachusetts now you have aoc giving these illegal immigrants pointers on how on how to evade ice. without it comes to your backyard you can resist when that happens and you can generate enough friction going as fast as they want to go make sure you slow down the system on the wrong side of this issue but they keep at it my heart goes out to these families as well coaching illegal immigrants on how to evade law enforcement this is absolutely absurd imagine if they held a webinar the stuff of the nuclear but
8:09 pm
they keep putting illegal immigrants above american citizens. and questioning trump's pick for education secretary it went like this a lot of the hearing went like this but watch this in particular will you oppose cuts to public education yesterday no. >> the president is not saying we should not cut funding to the public education i would disagree if you there he wants to cut the department of education altogether jamie buddies not talking about taking school funding away from kids as president trump said in his press conference america is rated number 47 but we spend at the most money per capita per student that is absolutely unacceptable and the department
8:10 pm
of education has continued to fill american citizens is time to return back to the state they think linda mcmahon has the right person to do it shrewd business woman and they will make make an education grade again. we hope education system is much improved thank you both. >> ♪ ♪ and all the fox news @ night common sense department made "the new york times" today they even used our common sense graphic if you didn't see or here about it don't worry the article wasn't meant as a pat on the back for common sense it was meant in the kick in the backside to convince him recently fox news has been parroting the president the article quoting that the flood of common sense comments on fox news echoes the language mr. trump and his new
8:11 pm
administration have used to justify his policies and they were entertained by the accusation that we echo the language of mr. trump echo means repetition of an idea and the common sense department was cooled before common sense was cool and has served up snark and brilliance every night since the show began. so when they say it's a constant reframe and maybe they should have continued the sentence to say for two and a half years long enough to sell thousands of common sense mugs and hats and t-shirts did you get one somebody should tell "the new york times" that common sense has actually been around despite all their efforts to oppose common sense fox news department they think if only
8:12 pm
they could have found some word or term that fit. let's bring in a conservative commentator and the vp of programming for the conservative partnership institute which great to have you both on i read this "new york times" thing this morning in a sinking man but they have at least on a google search of the show and know we've done that for two and a half years like all of this just started a couple of weeks ago and talking to somebody on your show for a while and why did you expect common sense from "the new york times". i think you're holding them to a higher bar than they deserve it's unbelievable. nbc claims the following and say that trump's anti-media and interviewed a law professor
8:13 pm
saying i don't know if trump himself as a game plan per se but it's clear the overall picture is of an administration that disdains the free press and the only animosity is that these people who continue to lie about it every day that lied about him for years. >> not only does he talk to the media every day in freewheeling unscripted press conferences in the oval office. the administration has thrown open the door to independent media. bringing in more media than ever before and under joe biden 400 journalists lost their press credentials to the white house and i didn't see a peep from nbc news because their friends were impacted but when talking about here is one of the most open and accessible administrations we are in the middle of may mid-february and
8:14 pm
the number of press conferences scene has dwarfed what we saw from joe biden in at least six months. so the phrase anti-media or anti-free press is another primal screen from the press because they're not getting their way with president trump and dean phillips who ran president himself said this on cnn about democrats opposing them. >> i was embarrassed for my democratic colleagues this isn't playing well across the country people want the government to work better and they believe that mr. musk wanted the best best entrepreneurs in human history who doesn't fail at just about anything most americans. most americans do want him to do this and they want the government to run and you have these democrats who do not want the government to run properly. >> of democrats were smart they would lean into a people like dean phillips instead of bernie sanders and aoc not to give them too much advice before
8:15 pm
they plan ahead for the midterms it's laughable to the average american like me who is a small business owner who is a mom having to file everything for the irs who lives on a budget. we look at the federal government and that leftists and democrats that are like how dare you be mad about us spending 3 million on anti-semitic wrapper in gaza. if we have to budget you need to do so as well stop spending this on this. >> and then the administrator who said they annoy deal with the programs are much less who's paying for them and what they are for. the most disappointing part of this with the policy advisor freaking out about rfk jr. being the health and human services secretary. no? she says i can tell you how many
8:16 pm
career staff had been calling me to try and understand what will happen then they are worried they are on some list and and what are they talk about what i think their misunderstanding is the american taxpayer always wants to know how their money is being spent and what's happening in these agencies. we are getting a peek into it and unfortunately it is worse and what people expected. they ease their money and activities spent and done in our name. we are finally getting a look at that. it's not an invasion of privacy of bureaucrats it's american transparency and at the rate we have as citizens to know what's being done in their name. thank you both more now on rfk officially being sworn in as
8:17 pm
secretary of health and human services after being confirmed by the senate. we have new information and reaction. and rfk was confirmed as health services secretary in a vote largely along party lines. former g.o.p. senate leader mitch mcconnell was the only republican to oppose the confirmation citing concerns over his record opposing vaccines. do remember rfk says he's not anti-vax also saying he wants to focus on helping americans live healthier lives. >> i will be a disruptor i won't let the food industry and pharmaceutical industry run wild anymore. i won't take away anybody's vaccines. what we are going to do is give people good science. and also today there was a party line vote for cash patel
8:18 pm
which gets them to a final confirmation vote to be the next fbi director this week. they say as fbi director he wants to restore public trust in law enforcement and lead the agency as they focus efforts on cracking down on crime. and some democrats still claimed the bill is too radical to leave their she's too radical to lead the bureau. >> he will come back to haunt you. every piece of evidence shows it and it's not democrat evidence it's his own words. he has spent his whole career fighting for righteous causes. he's a public defender representing the accused against the power of the state and a conservative lawyer brooke rowlands got confirmed as agriculture sector he and howard howard let nick is set for a full senate confirmation hearing in the coming days.
8:19 pm
now it's bringing a birth educator mclean mccowan kent i only people there were they look at him and say we love the man. because he hears us. he hears them. millions of mothers are celebrating it's a huge victory and a righteous choice for summoning mothers who have felt disenfranchised unseen and unheard and gas look for a very long time so we are celebrating tonight. >> trace: it's impressive because you listen to people we had alice on the show yesterday and she posted online that rfk is further proof that trump winning in 2024 is him winning in 2020 he's not the same person he's not here to make friends easier to disrupt a system and the system needs to be
8:20 pm
disrupted. the system needs to be disrupted and they had a guest on saying i have a two-year old they wanted to be better than mine others. and the biggest issue for me as a mom of two's i have the right to ask important questions with education. and this is rfk on usaid we had this today. >> mangel started usaid and building this country here it has been captured in the military-industrial complex and across the globe and they say the pathway to is paved and good
8:21 pm
intentions it's gone the wrong way and it needs correction and rfk saying let's correct it. these are the food for things we have grown in the country. we want transparency and want to know what's going on with over eating and drinking and make informed choices for themselves. >> leslie such a great day having rfk confirmed but remember every democrat voted against health link clean food and corporate correction. here your final thoughts. >> rfk says it best and it's going to bring her country together. great to have you on the show. coming up more promises kept as the trump administration continues to crackdown on the worst of the worst including criminal illegal immigrants and a guatemala man facing multiple child rape charges is off the
8:22 pm
streets but the state of massachusetts didn't make it easy. later in the nightcap... >> what is your message to iran? >> don't, don't, don't. >> if all of the hostages aren't returned by saturday it is an appropriate time. i would say all bets are off and all will break out. the left used to say nobody respected donald trump and after four years of the world thumbing its nose at biden, hamas and russia and china are ready to work with the u.s. as it appears trump's respected. do you agree or disagree let us know. we will read your responses in the nightcap.

8:31 pm
arab world and and at something like the abraham accords being assigned by modern era states i would've told you you're crazy but he had a out-of-the-box idea and it solved the problem of at least getting countries to rally around israel for the future we have another idea on the outside of the box. if you have something better do it he doesn't care how it starts he cares about results. >> trace: the l.a. journal once again here putting this state department hat back on china is trying to play the role of peacemaker and ending the war

in ukraine and the fact that she wants to help and it's interesting and within three weeks of coming into office president trump is putting out fires all across the world he has said that food would never have invaded ukraine under his presidency and did it when they were the 45th president and within three weeks of coming into office already getting rush on the phone he got put in on the phone in the same way he got zelenskyy on the phone and working to more towards a peace plan and really bringing an end to award the under the biden administration saw no end to it
8:33 pm
and that trump said this about putin and zelenskyy in the negotiations going on with ukraine. >> i think we will be able to do something and work with president zelenskyy and president putin is i know that he wants to make a deal and they also do feel president putin wants to make a deal i knew that before i begin detailed discussions we talked about how hamas and israel going bit but bit is there desire when talking about him and putin getting together is there desire to end this war both sides are losing i know it's going on because my rabbis live there and told in the disaster going on in kiev the thing right now is our president is telling everybody i am going to be the sheriff and have everybody sit down and you

8:35 pm
>> after go but what are your big concerns with israel and ukraine what you worry about in the next several days? >> i'm not worried we've seen him back off his peace through strength taking every step to stabilize the world and put out the fires and hopefully move us to prosperity in the country which is the overall goal and i think it's getting there and coming up democrats spar with linda mcmahon under this as they begin dismantling the department of education and heavy rain in southern california and places reeling from devastating wildfires and unbelievable video of a kayaker as he get swallowed by a humpback whale how he survived his next usps ground ad, it's like you're with us every step of the way. ♪

8:42 pm
is the remedy, education not government run systems listen to parents not politicians and mpower states not special interests. invest in teachers not washington bureaucrats that was the confirmation hearing is secretary as they work to dismantle the department of education bringing in the school board president the athletics owner and terry schilling thank you all for coming on. do you first reads in part the following the u.s. department of education offers for civil rights a directed investigation into the minnesota state high school league in the interscholastic federation both of which announced plans to violate federal antidiscrimination laws related to girls in women's sports. they won't play by the rules they want federal money but
8:43 pm
don't want to play by federal rules and we were there last week we warned them and had advocates for faith and freedom with us and they told him that you would be held accountable we will come and be just relentless as you to protect our children and they double down they put a toolkit out to show the boys how to do this and they are contributing to a mental health crisis for boys and girls and enough is enough we will hold them accountable and keep turning them in until they do the right thing. what do you think about this. do you think this resistance will work or is it something where you're like we voted for this. i think we have a long road those aren't the only two states as illinois is also pushing back and i would argue the ncaa which paro blushed new rules and guidelines stating they would adhere to the deal but they aren't. within those guidelines it says
8:44 pm
proof of gender or is what they use but 25 states allow you to change on your birth certi certificate. and with support bodies getting good and you were there with her appearance on capitol hill and they are in a tough spot and they have to defend the status quo and for those you can't read or do mast professionally in our schools
8:45 pm
and think but what they uncovered in the last few weeks and linda mcmahon has a clear message and it's a winning strategy. and in the meantime fox news writes the following with slashing over a million in dei funding and it's a win for every student. the school board president you know what funding is and you know what they use it for and in all these rules you have to go to maybe it's time. about time you let things be based on merit instead of having to pick winners and losers. >> and again they weaponized the department of education and they require school districts we see first-hand all the requirements to do with education and they have those standing up being sued by this gate state it's clear education isn't a
8:46 pm
priority. >> even though there in your corner on this the others are on the wrong side of the issue and won't care. the associated press writes the following picking up on the argument with the previous question of a federal judge on thursday temporarily blocking the executive order aimed at restricting gender-affirming health care for those transgender under the age of 19. is it above or worse? >> first of all we need to stop calling it health -- help care and snot health care is lines we use that language we concede to their view of the world it's not just health care but on all of these issues it's co-opting those languages and have to keep fighting and pushback. trump has done what they can with the executive orders and they have to stand up and say no more and keep pushing it
8:47 pm
forward. >> reporter: and then he said this about the department of education it's a big con job we rank the top 40 countries in the world ranked number 40th and they spend more for pupils in any other country in the world ranked number 40. and it is bleak you are losing kids. every single year. that's exactly right. and the department knew it was founded in 1980. here's what you need to keep in mind that test scores and student progress in education and it hasn't maintained itself and what do they lose thank you

>> ♪ ♪ and back with the nightcap crew and tonight's topic respect. six years ago the left love to say nobody respected trump three weeks into his second term hamas russia and china willing to work with the u.s. and now it appears president trump is greatly respected. >> four years ago he was plotting for years when i get back i know exactly what i'm going to do i am going to tell you we are blessed he's now the president and not four years ago. >> i agree with the rabbi i think he's right on and i think he is feared.
8:54 pm
and if that's the other side of the coin from respect i agree with that as well. >> i agree with kevin as well when you have world leaders lining up to meet with trump that work equates to respect. >> it really does you think something's going on because every time he lays down the gauntlet people are like okay. >> i think you're doing better than the former president to couldn't string together a coherent sentence and released in an argument to his own teleprompter so we are doing better. >> trace: sonja? >> he always had respect mother countries that's why it was a big thing to take it away because yet they had a different plan and walk softly and carry a big stick and that's actually the best thing for the united states on the world stage. not walking softly at all and like them or not they at least know who is running the show.

and now they and those world leaders are making phone calls 1-800-trump. marlowe says i think they respect him more after everything he's been through and standing tall. respected and feared and and the big guys for years and those who don't or delusional and if only democrats would respect him as well i'm trace gallagher in los angeles we will see you bace here again for a friday nightu' fox news @re night. a groundskeeper. and a landscaper.
