hell, too. massachusetts state senator peter durant join me now. apologies to viewers for the horrible language of the h, e, double hockey stick references. will they be talking touch when federal funding goes away? >> thanks for having me on, todd. it is understandable tom homan is very frustrated with what is going on right now. public officials, whether the mayor or governor of massachusetts have been defiant making massachusetts a sanctuary state. there is a short oncoming. there is a real problem once we start seeing funds dry up. >> todd: how could someone call themselves a law enforcement leader and refuse to cooperate

with another law enforcement agency? >> it is sad where they have to refuse to work. in massachusetts, we have the lung decision, supreme court of massachusetts determined that local law enforcement is not required to work with federal ice and immigration officials. now the problem is that everybody has a boss. and so i don't want to necessarily explicitly blame the commissioner for what he's doing or he's directed to do. somebody has to step up and take the bull by the horns and work with ice. i've done a ride-along and seen frustration they go through and seen them try to execute their job here in massachusetts with little to no help. there is some help going on with officials here, sheriff has before doing great in central massachusetts. because of that decision, it is

tied law enforcement's hands and given power to the politicians. >> todd: and state senator elites. brazilian gang member smiling for cameras while being arrested in your state. he was allowed to continue to be in our country, he arrived here illegally and allowed to stay because of laws on the books in massachusetts. why are so many so-called leaders in your state putting someone like this ahead of law abiding citizens? >> that's the 64 billion dollar question, that is what we've been spending on this migrant issue. at the heart of this is 1983 law, only law in the country which requires the state to actually house those who come in and are homeless and only right to shelter law here in the united states.

the politicians have used this law to basically welcome with open arms anyone that comes into the country. it is estimated there are 355,000 illegal immigrants in this state right now. we have that number of people who are illegal, there is a lot of bad guys coming into the state. you are seeing result of this. we see stories from ice come out every single day and see this happening all the time here. it's a shame it is happening and really the legislature has to step up and first to reform the lund decision that authorization rising police to work explicitly with ice and we have to change our politicians to some that are more concerned about the people of massachusetts rather than

those who are in our country illegally. >> todd: you yourself are considering a run for governor. you mentioned heely a few times we will watch to see if you make the decision to jump into the race. massachusetts a very blue state, see if peter durant can turn it red next year. meteorologist adam klotz here with the fox weather forecast. i promise we did not get dressed together today. >> gray suit, only two guys that came up with gray suit and dark time. >> todd: are you mocking me? >> i am a little bit. temperatures, 30 may not seem like the warmest temperature. this is early this morning. major warm up in the week ahead. a lot of folks will be feeling

membership, if there are such conditions. dan hofman joins me now. jump off on what zelenskyy said, how should we interpret a comment like that? >> dan: i don't know how serious he was about that. ukraine has a long way to go before there is a political transition. they are still fighting a barbaric war to defend their independence against russia. churchill couldn't hold election during the war in germany, zelenskyy is holding on elections right now, in my view, rightly so. after we have a ceasefire, the ukrainian people may speak up and decide they want someone else. zelenskyy was democratically elected president in the country. the ukraines may decide they want a different leader to take them into post-war

reconstruction phase. >> todd: a meeting between trump and macron, seems like there are a bunch of different meetings that do not get us anywhere. will today's meeting get us closer? >> dan: i think this is a critical meeting, europe has to play a critical role there both on defense for ukraine, which is standing there at the gate at point of attack defending against russian incursion. putin spent his years in the kgb and imposed influence on europe, which putin would like to do to ukraine and other nations. europe need to play a role militarily to deter russia and i'm sure discussions will take place about the role europe can play. >> todd: seems like if you heard

secretary hegseth comments over the weekend on fox news sunday, seems like europe gets that and need to put their money where their mouth is. g geographically, you don't need to be a scholar to notice europe is close to the situation and should take the mantel. trump proposing giving u.s. hundreds of millions >> ukraine rare earth mineral as composition for war-time assistance. here is scott bessent with the details. >> this deal is part of president trump's negotiating strategy for peace between ukraine and russia that involves str strategic minerals, energy and state-owned enterprise. guarantee that if united states of america is heavily invested in economic future, i call it

economic security guarantee. >> todd: something crucial, we get distracted by having minerals to get our money back. security aspect, knowing russia like you do, will an american presence in ukraine, what it takes to mine minerals, process them and it is like, will that deter putin from invading ukraine again? >> dan: if i were looking through eyes of ukraine leadership and advising them, i would say, your number one goal should be for united states to have skin in the game in ukraine economically and that is what this deal would do. there is a lot of details to be worked out in this agreement. at the heart of it, it is that, if united states and ukraine are linked up, that is good for ukraine and good for the united states and europe, as well. >> todd: russia says preparation for trump-putin summit are

underway. is putin waiting for this meeting before he takes steps toward ceasefire or truce as validation of mimz on the world stage? >> dan: absolutely, vladamir putin wants the world to perceive him as being able to go toe to toe with u.s. russia gdp is size of italy's and vladamir putin wants ability to show his own followers and the global south and middle east, he can negotiate with the united states. he wants to solve problems with the united states in his view. what i would caution united states leadership and trump administration, putin is kgb operative. casualties he's caused is a statistic to him, his goal is still to destroy ukraine and

install kremlin puppet regime. abhorrent as it might be to us, destruction russia caused in ush yoo and casualties and loss of life is secondary importance to vladamir putin and i think the director of cia, john ratcliffe, and his team need to play a critical role for president trump to provide latest intelligence we have and how he views the united states and ukraine and europe so that the trump team can be as informed as possible when making important decisions. >> todd: not just at play, john ratcliffe need to be aboard. we appreciate it. thank you. new generation of right leaning eshg co-warriors, those two phrases go together. are pledging to put conserve back in conservative while unleashing all sources of

energy. daniel franz, with the coalition joins me now. how do unleashing energy d dominance and environmentalism go know hand in hand? >> my big question is why we let activists have the microphone on this issue. this issue conservatives should own. gop has a long and proud history of environmental stewardship going back to grant, roosevelt, president nixon, and it makes sense when you think, if you look at electoral map, red and rural areas have most remote and beautiful, natural spaces and our party is party of sportsmen, party of agriculture, parties and farmers. we want to make sure our environment is thriving and healthy and want to see human flourishing and prosperity.

how do you do that? through energy. we would love to see all of the above energy approach where we let consumers decide what energy sources are best for them. whether wind and solar or natural gas and nuclear, we need more energy period and should let the marketplace decide how to do that. doug burgum sounds like he's on board. listen. >> people care about the environment, they should want every drop of energy, every eshg lect ron, we do itten clooe cleaner, smarter and safer. it didn't reduce demand, it shoved supply to people don't follow the rules we do, whether human rights or environmentally, best thing for the world is if the u.s. is energy dominant. >> todd: key point, we may have

green new deal provisions from biden administration and before on the books, not like the rest of the world is doing that, and we are forcing the world to become worse for the environment. did it do more harm than good to the environment? >> i think so, green new deal pushed people away with policy proposal and secretary burgum is right, if we want to compete with china, we need more energy period and should be agnostic as to where that energy comes from. a lot of people don't know leading the world in emissions and due to natural gas, we do it cleaner here and that should be on the playing table for us. >> todd: president trump clamping down on wind energy pausing permit for off-wind projects, what is your thought on energy?

>> we should be energy agnostic and let decide. texas produceses more wind energy than california does, they do that through market choice and legalitying consumers decide what works best for them. some consumers are willing to pay more for that and some aren't, we should be given energy choice. >> todd: top-line argument from you and what you stand for, conservatives don't want dirty air and water, they want clean air and water and arrive at it from a different perspective. shoppers, people like you and me, looking for a deal. costco, one of america's favorites. they are still bargain hunting to live a life of luxury. take a closer look at that with cheryl casone, next.

requesting what they got done last week, failure to respond will be taken as resignation. congressman, put aside legality from that last part from musk's post, fact people will be terminated. lawyer in me says that cannot happen based on a tweet. shouldn't federal workers that have their job because of taxpayer dollars, be able to find five simple things they did at work in the last week? >> todd, if you look at this, there are roughly three million federal workers, the price tag the taxpayers pay is $271 billion a year. is it too much to ask for them to verify why they make average salary of $106,000 a year. do you think that single mom working two jobs at a restaurant

can't justify where she was or hygienist can't verify how many patients they saw. a arrogance of workers whos that is heavy lift, that is what americans are sick and tired of. it is not their money, we are paying the bills, we have a right to know. elon musk, numbers don't lie on what he's finding out. it's a great day and this is going to be trans formational for america to realize what federal employees are doing and many are good and can verify it. to threaten to quit and labor unions suggest they do not provide it, risk losing your job. >> todd: it is a sense ever entitlement, they feel entitled to the jobs and they are upset when people ask them to justify what they are doing. they don't get in the private

sector, this is par for the course, you have to justify what you do and that is how it works. left not a fan of this. tina smith ripping musk's e-mail. this is the ultimate bleep boss move from musk, but he is not it is boss, he's a bleep. i'll bet a lot of people had an experience like this, e-mail saying prove to me your wo worthiness by monday or else. who causes the left to lose their minds more, trump or musk? >> well, think it is a combination. genius of both trump and musk are the american people are excited about what is going on. they have control of something that they feel like we've lost control with federal workers. again, average salary is $ $106,000 per year.

again, to justify where you are and what you do for the last week. in the private sector, they would gladly provide that information because again, taxpayer is paying bill for federal workers and private sector, you do that everyday or you don't keep your business going. >> todd: you are on house rules committee, they meet today on gop budget plan. should we take anything from the fact rules committee is meeting as sign maybe we are close to a deal or is that wishful thinking, congressman? >> i'm on rules committee, we'll meet today for four hours or more. no, i think it is positive sign it will go on the floor tuesday hopefully >> this is a big deal. came out of what will be proposed came out of the budget committee and i think we're going to get it across the

finish line now. >> todd: one issue getting a lot of attention is potential cuts to medicaid. here is your colleague, jim jordan and setting the record straight on that. >> not looking to make cuts to medicaid. work requirements are common sense. cut taxes, cut spending, help national defense and secure the border. >> todd: will work requirements be part of whatever the final law is? >> absolutely, that is one great thing. as jim said, that is not a cut. realize medicaid has grown since 2019 to 2023 51%. the left is going to say it is going to be cuts, it is not. hopefully get block grants to states and decide on how it is

allocated. it is not a cut, is having a job and being able about theeded to work should be checked on. it is like what musk is doing, we have to verify that. getting a check from we the people. >> todd: it is our money. congressman, thank you for your time. we appreciate it. another hollywood lecture coming your way from actress jane fonda. she explained exactly how the elites can lead fight against president trump, who better to opine on that than the greatest joe concha, he is next. hing. a little something, dad? oh, umm. hi. walt rolled his 401k accounts into an empower ira and it's grown nicely. so i say, let a gramps be a gramps. okay, just promise me it doesn't make a lot of noise.

happening. and even if they're of a different political persuasion. we need to call upon our empathy and not judge but listen from our hearts. >> todd: fox news contributor joe concha joins me now. joe, there is a lot there. start with her definition of woke. do you agree with it? >> oh, boy. by all means, todd. let's listen to an actress that hasn't done anything of note since, i don't know, on golden pond more than 40 years ago. jane fonda is reportedly worth $200 million. when was the last time you saw her giving any of that back in the form of the empathy that she speaks of. writing a check, okay, i guess. true charity in the form of action? outside of disparaging our fighting u.s. military members during vietnam, hanoi jane you see on your screen, it's hard to find an example. and, by the way, no sane and sober american likes to be lectured to during an awards show. it's why and this is guarantee,

you will hear soon that this year's sag awards were the lowest rated of all time. to say answer your question i agree with her as far as empathy cutting government waste and corruption? no. i'm kind of for that i think most americans are for that and the fact that elon musk and doge at the direction of donald trump is doing that, no one really wants to hear from jane fonda in a $10,000 dress lecturing anybody at this point. >> todd: implication in that comment by jane fonda focuses on immigration. clearly that's what they are talking about and the attempt by the trump administration and tom homan and the like to go after illegal immigrants. when i hear that word empathy, i think about the moms of the children that we have had on our show. children killed by illegal migrants. and i wonder, joe. where is the empathy for them? >> where is the empathy for laken riley, right? to your point, exactly. or the empathy for new york city
