you will win some and lose some. the sport has come a long way. >> amazing how far it's come. i was on a podcast not long ago. in 1980 maybe 2% of the hockey players in the national hockey league were american. in 1996 the world cup team the percentage was 19% americans in the national hockey league. right now i think it's 38 or 37%. players will coming from across the country now. arizona, st. louis, florida, california, massachusetts, michigan, minnesota. now the growth of the sport not only our men but women as well. our women are growing and growing and it is great for the game. >> lawrence: it was a great game and you kicked it off for a great speech. thank you for watching. >> bill: thanks. 9:00 here in new york. they are beating the drum on doge yet again. president trump and elon musk

showcasing the slash and burn and republicans so far are loving it. here we go on a friday. good morning, everybody, i'm bill hemmer. >> dana: weeks go fast, right? i thought of you. we're going to the prom but only friday morning. we have a big show for you. elon musk took the stage at cpac with a chain saw about cutting wasteful spending. >> waste is everywhere. you find waste in d.c. look, it is like being in a room and just targeting the walls, roof and floor. so you'll close your eyes and shoot in any direction. you can't miss, you know? >> bill: so far doge claims it saved taxpayers 55 billion. canceled more than 1100 government contracts and president trump telling a gathering of republican governors doge so far is exceeding expectations.

>> president trump: expecting us again as a country and as a powerful country and maybe a smart country, maybe not so smart. when you look at some of the waste, fraud and abuse that is being uncovered by doge and the people at doge, these are young, often young but super brilliant people, incredible computer scientists and other things and they are finding levels of fraud and waste and abuse like i think nobody ever thought possible. >> dana: doge's agenda of legal challenges. >> good morning. the first suit came from labor unions including the national treasury employees union. the judge declining to stop the firing or layoffs of any probationary employees and also declining to stop any furtherance of the federal

worker buy-out program. saying the court doesn't have jurisdiction over these claims, try again. in another case another judge denied a request for a restraining order from 14 state attorneys general who want to stop doge from accessing data systems at the departments of education, labor, health and human services, energy, transportation, commerce and the office of personnel management saying doge can continue its operations despite its unpredictable actions causing uncertainty for the plaintiffs. the president defending doge's work and the workforce. >> president trump: they can take apart the most complex computer instruments and put them back blindfolded. when they go into a guy ripping off the country by doing some of the things you have heard or are going to hear, they can't be [bleep]. they can't say oh, gee, there was a mistake. there was a big mistake. >> the white house is weighing a plan to return some of doge's savings directly to taxpayers.

potentially even 20%. house speaker mike johnson says paying down the deficit should be the priority. >> if you think about our core principles fiscal responsibility is what we do as conservatives. our grand. we have a 36 trillion federal debt. a giant deficit that we're contending with. i think we need to pay down the credit card. >> one former biden staffer expressed agreement warning checks for taxpayers could cost more than you think. >> he should look back to the bush checks that came out which took 100 billion for people to get 30600 per household. a lot of money that should be going to pay off the debt. >> the government accountability office estimates fraud in the neighborhood of $5 hundred billion a year, dana. >> dana: those checks, though, bush administration heading into a recession.

attempt to stave that off. jackui, thank you. >> bill: national review staff writing caroline downey and guy benson. let's have at it. ron desantis with jesse said this. roll it. >> i think the proof will be in the pudding when congress has to now act. elon and his team can do all this, president can authorize a swift action, but congress ultimately will be responsible for changing its behavior and taking away this spending. when there is no accountability, you give license for bad behavior. now you have doge, shining a light on this. it has been incredibly healthy. >> bill: a lot to chew on here. guy, take your first shot. >> bingo. doge is fine, gouge is great in a lot of ways, you see a lot of cuts. many totally justified, $55 billion so far. coming at this sort of break

neck speed but in the scheme of what this government spends, it is pocket change. it is a few coins in the sofa cushions. the big changes have to be done by congress and i worry there are some members of congress on the republican side who like to talk a good game and all about doge because it's the executive branch doing flash but their responsibility to make our spending sustainable which is politically difficult and not much appetite for that. i'm glad desantis made that point. if you want real action in reforming government spending it lies in the legislative branch. >> dana: for years, one of your colleagues charles cook talks about this all the time. congress has abdicated its responsibility so much. one of the things that will happen. these are some 95 cancellations. some examples. food and nutrition service,

three day leadership retreat in atlanta. malaysia study tour of facilitation services. the change in the couch worth doing. it will take congress to cut the appropriations bills and we'll see if they are willing to do that. >> as charlie cook said many times trump cannot dissolve these agencies without congressional approval. he can reduce the number of staff employed there. he can reduce the size and scope of the agencies but they can't disappear into the ether unless congress weighs in and intervenes. to your point about doge is being very successful right now. it is finding waste, fraud and abuse on the margins. peri periphery. that we have any accountability at all. it doesn't make a dent or deficits unless we talk about mandatory spending. >> bill: the clip is too long. one thing he said you can transfer the savings into the next fiscal window and lower the

overall spending. you will have options on this. if you start cutting maybe it's the pentagon, maybe hhs, americans get used to this, well, we'll be in a new place at that point then. >> also something valuable with showing that you can go find a bunch of these inefficiencies, cut it. lay off bureaucrats and the sun rises in the east next morning and again the next day and the sky doesn't fall the way you get these apocalyptic concerns and warnings from people that you can never spend $0.01 less than you did the day before or all of human existence collapses. that's how the left tends to argue about spending. doge can help with vacuuming up some of the money and bringing it back but showing a lot of this stuff -- i think americans mostly agree with this. a lot of this stuff is unnecessary and is wasteful and we can do with less. >> dana: it does speak to your

younger generation in that we have to have our fiscal house in better order so that you and your children and your grandchildren will be able to have a sustainable american super power. >> right. i think a lot of conservative have assumed that fiscal conserveism is dead. it is considered untouchable. but if you don't start to cut into mandatory spending and eligibility for medicaid. according to musk a lot of people aren't qualified to be on those programs because joe biden expanded it dramatically. discretionary spending is what doge is targeting now. it matters. it is good we slash dei contracts in the department of education, mandatory spending is the bulk of our fiscal problem. >> bill: unfortunately that is a large and tall political mountain. >> dana: a political promise from donald trump not to do it right now.

>> bill: thank you, caroline. nice to see you, thank you, guy. >> happy friday. >> dana: epa chief zeldin is accusing the biden administration of playing politics. he says the biden administration awarded $2 billion to a green energy nonprofit with ties to stacy abram, democratic politician from georgia and vocal biden supporter. >> $2 billion of the 20 billion that was parked at this bank outside of government towards the end of the biden administration, power forward communities, which stacey abrams is part of only received $1 hundred in 2023. they then got $2 billion in this grant in 2024. the entire scheme as set up is fraud, wasteful. it is abuse. >> dana: steve harrigan is live from atlanta with more on this developing story. >> lee zeldin wants that $20

billion back. the figures he cited there you can see the jump. new found organization going from $1 hundred to 2 billion is a 20 million times increase in that money. zeldin says the 20 billion was a slush fund to reward left wing activists like abrams. >> $2 billion to stacy abram's group even though they never handled more than $100 before that. they want this money to go to support the base activist groups. it's one of the reasons why you have so many of the left flipping out over doge. the lights are getting turned out on this kind of abuse. >> that $20 billion was part of the biden administration's greenhouse gas reduction program that went to eight different groups including $2 billion to power forward communities which abrams is link to and posted on x thrilled to be part of at rewiring america and the power

forward community. prioritizing housing, equity, resilience. the timing of this award has come under scroti knee just one month after abrams endorsed biden for re-election. democrats say it is not about fraud but republicans trying to gut environmental protection. >> elon musk has taken a wrecking ball to that progress. trump and musk are rolling out the red carpet for the worst corporate polluters handing massive giveaways to billionaire donors so they can drill and destroy millions of acres of our pristine lands and waters. >> attempts to freeze the $20 billion before it gets distributed likely to result in legal action. >> dana: i bet it does indeed. steve, thanks. >> thank you. >> condemn these horrific murders. the entire civilized world should join israel in demanding the immediate release of all the hostages. all of israel is united in grief. >> bill: this has taken a bad

turn. heartbreak and outrage in israel. the body of a murdered hostage, a mother, woman, not saved from the atrocities of hamas. all this and new fears of terrors. >> dana: luigi mangione is set to appear in court in the killing of united healthcare ceo in mid town manhattan. what the stakes are ahead. >> the first day on the job for the new f.b.i. director, kash patel. how he plans to rebuild the agency. the nation's top law enforcement agency.

>> we're one step closer to fulfilling the promise republicans made to making safer. i hope we can get one big beautiful bill in the house but we need to act on border

security and national security now. we're running out of time. >> they were late at it last night early into the morning hours burning the oil. capitol hill. the bill passed 52-48. a $340 billion plan. senator rand paul the only republican hold-out. it will provide funding for mass deportations and border security. it does not include the extension of trump's tax cuts from 2017. all this despite president trump backing the house republicans' bill. we'll see if they are march eft at some point. if they are. >> three buses explode in israel. it put the country on edge. meanwhile the idf says one of the hostage bodies released by hamas yesterday was not the murdered mother of two young sons also abducted and that is

unleashing outrage in the jewish state. >> good morning. for israelis the day yesterday started in heartbreak watching the return of multiple hostage bodies coming back to israel. it ended in terror after a series of explosions detonated inside three buses. investigators in central israel say the buses that exploded had just finished their routes for the day. explosives found on two other buses. five bombs in total were found and all the same, all fixed with timers. authorities say it is a miracle no one was hurt. all this happening the same day the remains of two child hostages and their mother were handed over to israel by hamas. however, israel positively identified the sons, the bodies said to be their mother, shiri. netanyahu is vowing not to rest

that whoever is absolute. >> who murders a little boy an baby. monsters, these hamas monsters also cynically refused to bring back the boys' motor and send the body of a gazan woman instead in violation of the agreement. >> representative from hamas released a statement rejecting netanyahu's threat saying they'll conduct a thorough review but point out to the possibility of a mix-up of bodies saying the remains were found in an area they claim israel had bombed with palestinians present. hamas also saying they have no interest in not upholding the current cease-fire deal and we expect the return of six living hostages starting tomorrow. dana. >> dana: jeff paul, thank you. >> bill: joey jones, former marine corp bomb tech. michael waltz with laura last night on the north lawn. >> these are babies. this was their mother. this is a sick terrorist organization no different than

isis and we cannot have gaza ruled by a terrorist organization, hamas has to be destroyed. we'll continue -- >> bill: the israeli ambassador said. hamas returned an unidentified body as if it were a worthless shipment. this is a new low, evil and cruelty with no parallel. joey, what do you think about this now? >> as an american it is a good thing. the only thing i can think of similar to this when u.s. soldiers were paraded through somalia in the blackhawk down incident. at least those were combatants and men that went to war. there is an argument we shouldn't have been there to begin with, sure. this is nothing like that. what happened october 7th is a massacre killing people for no

good reason and play must i can and have their children dancing and celebrating the death of babies. the truth is nobody else in the middle east wants the palestinians in their country. they don't represent muslims or people of palestinian descent. the people in gaza represent a radicalized populous and no one else wants those problems. they can't be trusted to be peaceful people. they gave up their opportunity to self-governance when they elected terrorists to be diplomats and murder their diplomacy. until something changes the idea that trump put forward to turn it into a big golf course sounds better every day. when you see this is who you are dealing with. those aren't militants dancing and singing. those are civilians dancing and singing while the bodies are paraded through and makes you disgusted and understand why several israelis would like to turn gaza into a parking lot. and if those were my countrymen and family that's exactly how i

would feel. the reason i bring that up. what's next? what happens when all the hostages are returned? so if hamas knows that maybe this is their last attempt at baiting israel into returning to gaza, breaking the cease-fire in hopes that someone like iran will save the day. i don't think it will happen. i think yesterday proved the international countries, the other countries in the region don't have an appetite for it. >> bill: waltz speaks for the president and president netanyahu are on the same page. we'll see in time how it turns out. budget pentagon's $8 hundred 50 billion. the new secretary of defense talking about doge cuts hitting there. watch. >> with doge, we're focusing as much as we can on headquarters and fat and redundancy and top line stuff that allows us to reinvest elsewhere. defined fraud, waste and abuse in the largest budget in the

federal government. the only thing i care about is doing right by the war fighters, by the troops. >> bill: two competing visions. reduce overall spending and protect the war fighters, the troops. you are a man of the military. how do you do it? >> when i was in, there was this thing called the oif fund. we took advantage of 9/11 and had a bottomless pit. blank check to buy whatever gear we needed. what we got is going back to the old radios after reinventing the radio ten times and spending the money. there is a lot of money that gets spent that doesn't need to. the problem with all this, a lot of technologies and capabilities we should already have that we don't have. not just cutting but learning how to acquire new things without spending our treasure to do it. it will come down to can you get the mom and pop inventors and

smaller companies that aren't trying to steal you blind to bring their ideas forward. i hope that's the next step. >> bill: let's get creative, right? oif operation iraqi freedom 2003 i do believe. thank you, joey. nice to see you and have a terrific weekend. dana. >> dana: fox news obtaining exclusive video of two migrants leading police in illinois on intense high-speed chase and why local officials are blaming the state's sanctuary policies for this. doge discussing sending americans' personal checks with a percentage of government savings. advisor who suggested the idea will join us to explain. >> it's money that is taken away from things that are destructive to the countries and organizations that hate you to you. that's awesome. ♪

>> president trump: on day one i declared a national emergency on our southern border. i sent our military to the

border to secure the sovereign territory of united states of america. we ended catch and release and began the largest deportation in american history. in the past four weeks illegal border crossings have plummeted by nearly 100% and those who make it across are apprehended and sent back to their home where they belong. >> dana: president trump trouting the success. the border patrol chief said illegal crossings at the southern border are down 94%. in the last week agents have caught 285 migrants per day. compare that to roughly 4800, 4,800 during the same time last year. you can see the drama. >> bill: immigration crackdown reaching beyond the southern border. this is new video that shows migrants in illinois leading police on a dangerous high-speed chase.

that's a corn field. mike tobin is live in chicago. what happened here, mike? >> the illinois governor and mayor of chicago are opposed to immigration reform efforts from the trump administration. counties are stepping up to say they have enough problems and don't want to be a sanctuary. >> they took off. >> two hondurans lead police on a high speed chase through corn fields and hour and a half outside chicago. >> subject is on foot running through the field northbound. get your hands up. get them up. >> 18-year-old and a 23-year-old arrested. seven pounds of fentanyl found in the car. >> three bricks. >> the illinois safety act eliminates cash bond. he was released without bail and fled to california. one is still held in jail. the count owe chairman believes they were in illinois because it is a sanctuary state. >> if we had a less welcoming

state for illegal immigration, i don't know if they would have been traveling those roadways. >> irony is it happened in groanedy county, the first county in illinois to push back against the democrat governor and pass a resolution saying it does not welcome illegal migrants. when migrants from texas were bused to chicago this county never received the bus load. >> we haven't had the problems other places have had by being non-sanctuary. >> dozens of illinois counties passed their own non-sanctuary resolution. incidentally the man was picked up in california held for another incident in san francisco. ice has issued a detainer for velazquez requesting they get notification if he will be released. officials can't grant that request. that would be a violation of the illinois trust act that prevents local police from talking to

their federal counterparts. >> bill: stay on it, mike tobin in illinois on that developing story. >> the doge, 60% is left. who gets that? >> when you achieve savings you can either return it to the taxpayers, return it to our debtors or it can be cycled into next year's budget to lower the baseline for next year. it will be worked on through the reconciliation with congress going underway right now. >> dana: the white house breaking down how government savings will be used. now doge is proposing that a percentage should go straight to americans' pockets. james fishback is a doge advisor and came up with this idea. it escalated quickly. musk talking to hannity yesterday. >> the goal is to try to get a trillion dollars out of the

deficit. if the deficit is not put under control america will go bankrupt. massive waste, fraud and abuse that has been going on leading to a 2 trillion a year deficit is what the president was handed on january 20th. >> dana: that was tuesday. not last night. the sentiment continues. question based on even on what stephen miller was explaining to peter doocy yesterday the 55 billion in savings that doge has found so far, has that money then be transferred back to the treasury or still at the agencies waiting some assignment from either the president or actually from congress? >> it's somewhere in the ether. the more important question is where is this money going to go when we end up saving it when doge is all said and done? president trump is off to a smashing start. incredible first month. now it's time to look at the doge savings as the proposal calls out and send 20% of that back to hard working americans

who sent it to d.c. in the first place. they didn't send it to washington, d.c. for it to be sent on transgender opera in columbia but for our roads, bridges, healthcare, education. that clearly has been lacking. so guess what? taxpayers are overdue for restitution and need a refund and i'm proud that president trump supports our proposal. >> dana: in your idea, maybe not fully flushed out yet. would the dividend checks go to people all taxpayers or just to people making a certain amount of money? >> that's a great question. the plan everyone can read it. i think doge with save $2 trillion in total. 400 billion and divide that by the number of american households that pay federal income tax there year, 79 million. it gets you $5 thousand to every american tax paying household next summer and have president

trump's signature on it. without his leadership this wouldn't be possible. >> dana: "new york times" is asks this. president trump floated giving taxpayers a saving that could reignite inflation. i checked on ai. would giving these checks lead to more inflation and grok says yes? what do you say? >> i say no and here is why. the economy is in much better shape the last time checks were sent out by president biden. a massive labor shortage. supply chain dislocations and sent to everybody, not just taxpayers. this money is coming from direct savings. remember, for every $5 that doge saves, $1 goes back to hard working taxpayers. a poll from 2019cnbc found 70% of americans would use this type of to pay down debt.

good economics. >> dana: do you think if somebody does ultimately get this check, if they have credit card debt they should use that extra money that they found, the savings, the money they weren't expecting to get back, and pay down their own debt? >> absolutely. just like d.c. should get its house in order. the government should do the same and why this proposal calls for the other 80% to pay down our national debt. american taxpayers who worked hard need a break, need restitution. the biggest part we incentivize them to report waste, fraud and abuse. report waste, fraud and abuse. guess what? the more doge savings, the bigger their check is. >> bill: 21 before the hour. the man accused of gunning down united healthcare ceo in new york city is back in court this afternoon. how the case of luigi mangione

>> bill: luigi mangione back in the news accused of killing the united healthcare ceo will appear before a judge in new york city today. his first appearance since his december arraignment on murder and charges of terror. alexis mcadams what we can expect today before the judge. hello. >> good morning. the hearing is scheduled for

later this afternoon around 2:00. mangione will be inside that courtroom sitting in front of a judge. the first time we've seen him in a couple of months as he will sit there and listen to what is going on in court today. it is not just mangione that are out at the courthouse. lots of supporters, too. i want to pull up a video. one of the things so interesting about this ongoing case is the level of support he has. this was the line of supporters in front of the courthouse this morning. people just wanted to get a seat inside telling us they waited for hours to show their support for luigi mangione. the case has captured the nation. could be getting closer to a trial date we're told. the judge is expected to ask the defense and prosecution for an update on the exchange of evidence today. mangione is accused of killing united healthcare ceo brian thompson. he was also a dad of two young kids, the shooting caught on camera. the ceo and father was gunned down while in new york city for an investors meeting. police believe mangione was mad at the healthcare industry.

ivy league graduate is facing 11 state charges including first degree murder and terror charges and facing federal charges which could carry the death penalty. mangione has pled not guilty to those state charges and 26-year-old faces a case in pennsylvania. he is looking at three different cases. he was arrested in pennsylvania after a days' long manhunt eating at a mcdonalds. he thanked his supporters and reads every letter he write. i am overwhelmed by and grateful for everyone who has written me and share their stories and expresses their support. that note was posted on his legal team's website linked to a fundraiser that has brought in more than half a million dollars for this guy. back out here live the federal charges could carry the death penalty. speaking of that fundraising when that was announced by the death penalty being on the table it looks like this fundraising skyrocketed and went through the

roof. interesting to talk to the people who are here for the hearing from all over. >> bill: nice to have you there in lower manhattan. >> dana: let's bring in our panel. let's get your take. this is a question about mangione being back in court. donald trump had said that the death penalty could be a possibility here. so is that all part of this calculation with his lawyers? >> it is in terms. political and culture and social capital surrounding this case and quite unfortunate. as alexis said we have over half a million dollars raised for an alleged murderer and thanking people for the support of a cold blooded killing of an individual. donald trump, president trump the first day of his presidency this year via executive order reestablished the death penalty removing the moratorium that president biden had established. people are saying and calling it

donald trump's death penalty. that day $11,000 donation was made and broke records for that particular plan form of fundraising saying we don't -- we want to protect you from this political death penalty. calling it donald trump's death penalty and totally missing the entire point this individual is faced with three cases unprecedented. plenty of precedents for the terrorism charges and missing the point the facts of this case are absolutely horrific and that is what the death penalty indeed is reserved for, which is the most heinous, the most mal intended crimes out there. nothing to do with the president. >> the terrorism charges are interesting as emily says. the charges in this case are residing on the state side of things. the feds don't really have a possible terrorism charge here. on the federal side you almost always need some nexus to a foreign power, which you don't have here. nonetheless, you have got

terrorism charged on the state side i think it will hold up. it bumps to murder one and why he is looking at life. the federal posture here as emily says is very interesting. we had the state charge all set to go. all of a sudden at the last minute as they fly him in we hear the feds are going to lodge charges. i have never seen this where the feds come along and say we're going to come in and bring heavy federal charges. by the way, state, you take it. that's completely counter cultural. i think despite the fact that everybody seems to believe the feds are out of the picture, the state will go forward, i don't know that that's the case. i think there is a very good chance you see the feds come in, assert themselves and he will be looking at a death penalty charge. that does give you the leverage to say, kid, plead for life. >> dana: i will go to emily. talk about new york and governor hochul. she said i won't play it for time. she said i am not going to boot mayor adams. her strong belief is the will of

the voters will take care of it and basically saying he gets to stay but this has caused a huge mess at the justice department, here in the city, what happens next? >> so many moving parts. let's make a prediction. some point over the next two weeks this is not any deep dark secret. looks like cuomo will announce candidacy for mayor in new york. one of the moving parts here. adams has to run for re-election. democratic primary that is the election in this town, always has been over the last years, is in june of this year. it is coming up. what she did here is she put in essentially a watchdog of her own into the department of investigations. >> bill: managing it. >> keep an eye on it. it started under cuomo. he asserted itself over new york city because he was feuding with deblasio. state cops down here, put the bail laws through up in albany. one of those things they could rue the day.

if hochul doesn't get reelected you have a republican in the seat to reach into new york city and why she said all these measures are temporary trying to protect her legacy. if you get a republican governor who runs new york city her name is mud. >> bill: interesting analysis. >> as new york city taxpayer i hate this so much. in addition to installing the watchdog she installed a communicator to focus on language for lawsuits against the federal government and got more funding. what i received was that my money is being spent even more brazenly, even more to the minute watchdog babysitting for our mayor when i would like my governor to do different things. there is already a structure in place to hold the mayor accountable. i don't need the governor to install more things wasting my money. >> bill: she took that literally the other day. it was a joke. emily, thank you, paul, well done.

to the game that america was waiting for. canada versus the usa on the ice and justin trudeau has something to say about it today. we'll goat that. the migrant crackdown focusing traffickers to change their strategy and how the border patrol is reacting to that. >> you are exposed to the elements and the dangers of the smugglers. >> we can't be every place at once. it is a needle in a hay stack situation.
