>> ainsley: it's 8:00, monday, february 17th. i'm in for ainsley, this is "fox and friends." secretary of state marco rubio and saudi arabia, as he looks for peace in the ukraine-russia war. >> lawrence: mayor eric adamses he's not going anywhere, lawmakers call for him to step down. >> i was missioned to finish the mission god put me on many years ago. i'm going nowhere. >> lawrence: fired up mayor. could there be life on other planets? could it look like this? ♪ ♪ >> lawrence: new study breaks down the odds. final hour of "fox and friends"

starts right now. so happening today french president macron is holding emergency summit to discuss president trump. >> steve: seven key european allies along with nato and eu european union members will attend the meeting. >> kayleigh: alex hogan is live with the latest. >> good morning, the trump holds meetings with russian officials, european leaders are hold being a meeting of their own. french president macron called for this emergency meeting which will take place this afternoon. he will meet with germany, britain, italy, poland, netherlands, denmark and nato attorney general and european commission president.

they are going to tackle how to respond to fast-moving pace of the trump administration. washingtony's shifting priorities and big question of sending troops to ukraine after a ceasefire. british prime minister indicated for the first time the u.k. could send british troops to the area. any role in helping to guarantee ukraine's security is helping to guarantee security of our continent and this country. he went on to say only the u.s. can deter putin from attacking again in the future. his spokespersons he will meet with trump within the week. the prime minister went on to say this is once in generational change to security and strategy here in not only uk, around the

continent. >> steve: that is right. as u.k. said, we would be interested in perhaps sending troops as some sort of peace-keeping force in ukraine. it sounds like that is putting pressure on other european allies and partners to do the same. england is going to do this how many, france, how about you? >> absolutely, this will put pressure on other european allies. there will be more meetings. in that letter, he did make mention, trump has a point here, we need to improve security and show u.s. we are making a change here and he says it is the message he will bring to paris later today. >> kayleigh: alex, thank you. starmer and u.k. and trump gets along, even though starmer is

from the labor party. think back to my tenure, during that short time, kosovo-servkos serbia relations and middle east peace deal, bauhrain, . if i'm europe, 3500 miles from this meeting with united states and russia, i'm thinking he put to bed prior conflicts and created relations between foes and enemies, he can do it again, give him a chance. >> lawrence: i worry, we continue to see this internationally and here domestically, it is status quo versus disruption and so many want status quo. this conflict, putin is bad guy, we all agree. he started this war, he should just leave. you can have that viewpoint,

nothing has changed having that viewpoint. you can say putin is responsible. we have to have a negotiation to end this. that is what the president is doing. let's have communication and talk about what to get. we have already got an american hostage. people say this was first part of that big overall deal. he is sending his people on the ground to have conversation, as well. what is so bad? if the deal comes out and we don't like it, talk about it then. >> steve: donald trump made it clear from the get-go, that war never should have happened and as soon as he is president, famously, he said i will finish it off within the first 24 hours. it is a little more complicated than that, as we all know. talking in a simple way people understand. you are right, why are we

devoting all that energy and billions and billions of dollars to that war over that disputed territory, which ukraine will wind up losing the territory, we know that will happen. that will be part of the deal. donald trump revealed he was asking ukraine essentially the way he negotiates, he was asking ukraine for a big chunk of their rare earth, the stuff we need. according to "washington post," ukraine rejected that proposal and they are working on a counter proposal. may not be gigantic amount we need, they are going to give us access to it, where we can get it if we need it. a lot of the stuff is in china and hard to get. >> kayleigh: we've given a lot to ukraine, this is art of the

deal and president trump putting america first. you have michael waltz, you have marco rubio and steve witkoff, who is the one who negotiated that ceasefire deal before they got into office. circumstance t faikt mcforland great thoughts. >> he's trying to bring rapid end to ukraine war. europeans and frankly biden administration said, we can't have negotiated solution, we can't trust putin, therefore let's not negotiate and america we expect you to shoulder burden of any defense ukraine is going to do. for british and french president to be saying, america, you got to do more when they are not willing to do more is height of hypocrisy. >> lawrence: when you simplify foreign policy, they are saying,

america, shut up, don't get involved, but we want your money. that will not fly with this current commander-in-chief. one thing missed in this conversation, talking about this conflict between russians and ukraines or israel and hamas. president is always speaking about human life and always talks about kids dying. this should never have happened. let's stop the killing. when you start from that, bring the hostages home. when you start from that point, get american people's attention. i don't want on to fight about who is right and wrong, but the killing must stop. >> kayleigh: that point in both conflicts. people were criticizing him being pro-israel, which they should, that is greatest allie in middle east. he was mentioning life lost in gaza. he gave voice to both side and

bloodshed and do not send our american treasures, men and women abroad. he kept them out of foreign war, that is his track record. >> steve: in the last week or so, he said, i think last monday, news goes so fast, hard to keep track. unless hostages are returned and things clarify by saturday, this past saturday, there would be hell to pay. they released a couple hostages. here is secretary rubio talking about ceasefire, hostage deal as negotiated in bits and pieces, where does that stand today? here is what he said yesterday. >> we want every hostage out as soon as possible and see them home. there are some under the deal supposed to be released next weekend, we expect that to upon ha, we would like to see them all come out. we are not in favor of waiting

weeks and weeks, that may be the process because of the deal, we would like to see them out as soon as possible and we continue to coordinate. who wouldn't want the hostages to be home and with their families? >> lawrence: look at the president's comments, a portion has been missed in this. he said, it will be up to israel. president has been trying to negotiate this deal in good faith and holding israel, let's give them a negotiation period and see how this plays out. now he's saying if you don't release hostages, i will let israel finish the job and start to see that, i pray that these islamic terrorists do the right thing and release hostages. i have little faith. surrounded the hostages with equipment that can explode, why they have not been able to rescue them. i said this from the beginning, phase two, they have no

intention of releasing those hostages. >> steve: what you said was telling, i hope the islamic t terrorists do the right thing. they are terrorists they are not going to do the right thing. as long as they have hostages, they have leverage. that is their peril. >> kayleigh: i'm tired of waiting to hear from hamas about the fate of kafir, he celebrated his birthday in captivity. his dad was released. someone said on twitter, talk about the two sides, there has never been a good side in the history of the world that has taken a nine-month-old baby hostage and kept him two years, that tells you all you need to know. israel should be able to do whatever to protect nine-month-old israeli babies like kafir. >> steve: cover of "new york

post," big headline there, on a mission from god, that is the mayor of new york city, eric adams. and he is defiant, because a bunch of democrats say he needs to step down because he got a sw sweetheart deal from the trump administration. department of justice announced they would drop corruption ch charges against the mayor. administration needs him to help with the war on the migrants here in new york city and also if they went ahead and adjudicated a case against him, that was unfair to him. right after that, the mayor came out and said start working with the administration and put new ice office, reopen it at rikers island. everybody is going, wait a minute, he is getting one thing for doing another thing, that is

quid quo pro and that is a problem for the mayor. democrats say he has to go. >> lawrence: i find it rich. they had none of the smoke for the former president and his son, crimes he was convicted by a jury were worse than this, no problem with the president lying to american public saying he wouldn't pardon him. he stopped process for tax evasion crime. he got a sweetheart deal and judge had to step in and ask is there precedence for a deal like this and both said no. no heat for that. now you have a mayor who is a democrat, and a president who is republican, that want to work together, that keep people safe. we have criminals roaming the streets, shooting at cops, giving them the middle finger, taking old lady's purses and these people are in the country illegally. >> kayleigh: you are right.

i found unlikely defender of eric adams. mayor deblasio said i did not like how it was handled, it was unfair to him and city. that is intellectual oddacity. you don't get further on the political spectrum than alina habba who agrees with mayor de blasio. >> this man was prosecuted because he was anti-sanctuary city policy. he said i'm going to protect people of new york. wow, he's pr prosecuted under charges and gone after. i can't imagine anybody else that happened to. that is the crime. that is the crime. he comes in ands i will

cooperate and do what i said i wanted to do for months and i'm going to clean up the city of new york, which is a disaster. he's going to work and pulling america first agenda and working on getting new york to a better place and i commend him. >> steve: eric adams is running for reelection, he's down in the polls and he's aligned himself with donald trump. in a town that voted 80% for kamala harris. so going forward, it will be interesting to see how much he wants to inflame his base by cooperating with donald trump. he made it clear when he was on our couch last friday, he was going to help tom homan as far as he could given restriction of sanctuary city business, which are in effect in new york city. >> lawrence: there is a little bit of time before the democratic primary. if i was here on the couch, i

would ask him, is this your issue? keep your people safe. that is something republicans, democrats, and independents want, they want the city safe again. i understand he's considered a political underdog, there are things mishandled in the city. i think working with administration, this could be his issue and he's a hell of a lot better than cuomo who sent old people to nursing homes to die. give them a shot and see how it goes. >> kayleigh: interesting to your point, you have governor andrew cuomo niping at your heel, and then trump administration is saying protect people, put new yorkers first. we'll see what he does. >> steve: he has to figure out who am i going to help? myself and get reelected or help donald trump administration? >> lawrence: or help the people and people may show you favor in next election.

we'll see. >> kayleigh: carley shimkus. >> carley: i have more news to get to here, happening today green berets starting two-month special mission program training mexican marines to combat cartel activity. scott mann joined us earlier to tell us about the mission. >> i think that is a much more effective approach over the long-term, if your partner can pick up the slack from the south and push north, that can have a big impact. it is not the silver bullet, it is a lot of basic and advance training on things it takes to take down a terror network or threat network, the guys are good at it. >> carley: mission designates all cartel foreign terrorist organizations. senate democrats burned 325 hours, two full weeks since january delaying confirmation of

president trump's cabinet nominee. democrats require -- procedural -- confirm trump's pick for fbi director kash patel. senate confirmed 16 cabinet selections. string of late race crashes at daytona, including this wreck during the final stage when christopher bell crashed and hitting ryan priest causing his car to flip over the track. after narrowly avoiding those wrecks, williams won in overtime lap thriller. >> checker is waving and william has run for second year in a row. holy cow, baby, yes, go. >> carley: byron said it is not all luck to win twice in a row.

luck to avoid the crashes, there is also skill involved. >> kayleigh: there is skill. that is dangerous, so scary to be in a race. >> steve: donald trump came to visit, there was a rain delay, they were -- had to stop after 11 laps and needed to run 200 to complete it. if you are going 200 miles per hour, you are thinking how dry is the track? you need good adhession. >> carley: i'd say so. >> steve: they have jet engine things that blow the water. >> lawrence: president trump legendary lap around the track what was it like to be at the race with him? ask doug burgum next.

prime minister of ja know pa, world is looking to president trump for leadership and he's out in front and everybody is following his lead, that is great for america and the world. >> steve: when he took that lap, it doubled as victory lap, in addition to going around the track, he's had a good couple of weeks in office. he's polling higher than he ever polled in his first administration and his nominee for cabinet post have been confirmed by the senate. he's making good on his promises, looks like a victory lap to a lot of people. >> today marks 28 days for the president in office. what he has accomplished in that amount of time is remarkable and pace he's going at is

unbelievable. i got elected first time same time president trump did in 2016. working with him as governor then, he was courageous during his first term. this time he's fearless and operating next level, at a different gear. take a look at last friday signing national energy d dominance deal, his ideas are brilliant, powerful and simple. he wants to sell energy as opposed to buying from allies, india and japan. president trump wants to do that and that is great for america. >> steve: look at president shaking hands of the nascar drivers. he is being president and grandpargr grandpartly cloudy a, he has his granddaughter there and you said

he had his grandson there, too. >> yes, his family was there, he is committed with his family. whether interacting with guys at nascar, president trump is america's president, people love him. look at hundreds of thousands of people there yesterday. it is thrilling to see and see the mandate he has to drive and trans form this country. >> steve: mr. secretary you mentioned energy dominance council he established on friday. we have a sound bite. producers heard you talking and here he is signing it last week. watch. >> president trump: this is basically energy dominance and it is going to be environmentally clean, environmentally wonderful and taxes will be very reasonable based on this. we'll make more money than

anybody ever made with energy. we have more energy than anybody else, it is clean energy. clean, beautiful energy. we are lucky we have it, i call it liquid gold under our feet and el paso utilize it. >> steve: he's trying to make your job easier. >> well, i think one thing president trump understands is that we can produce energy cleaner, smarter, safer than anywhere else in the world and attacking our own industry, it raises prices for every american. biden administration did 68 orders against alaska. biden sanctioned alaska more than iran. president trump wants to unleash american energy from gulf of america to alaska whchl we do that, it will help end wars abroad and help him win the nobel peace prize he deserves. >> steve: he said first day he

kentucky senator rand paul join us there. i did not know that much money was there and more surprised there has been no review. >> i've been trying to go down and see the gold and make sure it is all there for 10 years. during first trump administration, i got permission, all the way up to secretary of treasury. secretary of treasury said i want to go down there, too, i want to go when the eclipse is coming. they came when i wasn't there. i tried for 10 years, set up the appointment, they wanted to see the eclipse, they changed the appointment. they did go down and attest they believe they saw the gold down there. >> lawrence: what do you think the problem is? >> i think some of them may not think it needs to be audited. more transparency, the better.

gold still gives value to the dollar. we have it. imf and world bank have it. central banks around the world have gold and it is implicit trust the dollar has backing. >> lawrence: switch gears with you and talk about, talking about money, the gop budget resolution that is in jeopardy over concern from moderates and democrats about the budget. talk about, you are your father's son. and so i know you have had objections to it, what are they now? >> well, this year the deficit is 2.2 trillion, in march, both parties come back and spend 300 billion more in california for wild wildfires and borrowed, not paid

for. spent 100 billion in north carolina. for border, if you want money for border, take it from somewhere else in the budget, don't have a new spending bill. this budget is setting up new spending bill and ultimately this year 2.2 trillion and people scratching their head saying what about the cuts and things? the doge committee, elon musk found billions of dollars, way he saved money and has to be done, they send it back to congress in something called recision package and we vote with a simple majority. republicans can cut spending with doge spending, doing great job and going through it, it has to come back to congress. if i started seeing that, i might go along with them. >> lawrence: i got to quickly ask you, why aren't you in the room? you have not changed your position. you are still reasonable, you understand you will not get

everything. your support of the bill would get chip roy and thomas massie support if you are involved. doing fairly good job compared to colmcconnell, but why haven' you been involved with the negotiation? >> i told them if they want my vote, they have to talk to me about the numbers and we have to adhere to them. if numbers in budget resolution will be adhered to, i could be inclined to support the budget. so far no indication. for example, there is tril knowiodollars difference between budget document and what we'll spend this year. it becomes fiction. if not honest accounting, i don't want to vote for a rubber stamp that leads to increased spending. >> lawrence: hope they bring you in, i think good can be done. thank you for giving us time this morning. >> thank you. >> lawrence: snl celebrating 50

>> this morning a new study may have the answer to the age-old question are we alone? turns out this study thinks that maybe human life on other planets could be far more likely than we thought. our next guest co-authored the out of this world study. penn state astronomy professor wright. i found it interesting you mentioned that nasa used to be disengaged from the search for extraterrestrial life. what's happening? >> these arguments have been made for a long time that life in the universe might be super rare. humans might be super rare. we found a lot of arguments don't hold that much water. those arguments convinced a lot of people for a long time at nasa and wouldn't touch this stuff so funded with private donations and work being done in other countries.

in the last five years nasa has gotten back in the game and the search for life in the universe hasn't been stronger. a lot of colleagues at nasa trying to support the work are worried they won't do it for long or have jobs at the end of the week. i don't want to see america lose its science and the great science nasa is doing. >> there is a ton of public intrigue in trump declassifying documents pertaining to ufos. it is somewhere in the wheel house. what do you think about those documents and ufos? >> well, as you say i don't study ufos. i don't think they must have to do with aliens but i think it's reasonable to try to understand what they are and perfectly reasonable for nasa and the government to try and figure it out. i don't think it has any -- >> you did say in the point i was reading you don't believe you've seen credible evidence of these ufos?

>> there are things out there that are unidentified and ariel and objects. i don't think they're alien spacecraft. >> what you make of the mission to mars. president trump has said hey, he is interested in heading to mars. >> i think it is really exciting. mars is the best destination for us to go to to look for life in the universe. we may have evidence of fossil or existing microbes and collected all these samples we would like to study on earth if we can get them back. i'm excited to see nasa is committed to exploring our closest neighbor that might have life. >> professor, thank you so much. have a wonderful week and to all of you who joined us this morning happy president's day. enjoy the federal holiday. join me on "outnumbered" at noon eastern time here on the couch. >> bill: good morning, life in the really fast
