♪ ♪ >> brian: 7:00 a.m. on the east coast. monday, february 24th. this is "fox & friends." french president macron meeting with president trump today on the third anniversary of russiaens war in ukraine. could a deal come this week? national security adviser mike waltz is here to tell us. >> lawrence: a big tech company is making a $500 billion investment in the u.s. he will tell you which one. >> ainsley: plus, elon musk tells federal employees return to the office or you will be put on administrative leave. the second hour of "fox & friends" starts right now. and, remember, your mornings are better with friends.

launches lawrence meskó delegate all federal elmly nos midnight it tonight to email doge or get fired. not every agency is cooperating. >> brian: nope. peter doocy joins us now. >> if you work for the federal government and watching, this check your email because you only have until the end of tonight to respond to this note that came in over the weekend from the musk-run opm account and part of it said consistent with president trump's instructions all federal employees shortly receive email requesting what they got done last week. failure to respond will be taken as a resignation. but, the new fbi director kash patel told fbi employees when and if further information is required, we will can a coordinate the responses for now, please pause any responses. and pete hegseth told people at the pentagon please pause any response to the opm email titled

"what did you do last week." musk for his part says a large number of good responses have been received already. these are the people who should be considered for promotion. and a doge wing in court at the end of the week means usaid workers can be put on leave after all. a quote from the office of the inspector general all usaid direct hire personnel with the exception of dedicated personnel for mission critical functions core leadership or specially designed programs will be placed on administrative leave globally. all of that and remote work for people that work for the federal government is now a thing of the past. everybody, as of today, 9:00 a.m., ordered back to their desk. so, despite all the uncertainty with buyouts and layoffs, the certain thing here within the beltway is that traffic is going to be a lot worse. for days to come. back to you. >> lawrence: so, peter, there is not no beef between the agencies like fbi and all that from what

i'm hearing it's all about classified information and things that they want to set their own departments. they are inviting doge in. they just didn't want them responding with different information to that email, right? >> that's definitely part of it. we know hhs originally told people to reply and then they said not to reply. but to the classified part. if you have a bunch of employees who spend all day in a scif, in just classified settings on classified networks plying to unclassified servers about which really secret stuff they are involved in that they see that creates a big security risk. and so to your point that's something these agencies would like to avoid and i don't think kash patel or tulsi gabbard like days into the job want to have to deal with a huge personnel breach. >> brian: peter, quick question today macron and president trump

going to take questions. >> yes. 2:00. putting in the french flag at blair house across the street i hear cars in the background getting ready should be here noonish and 2:00 for q&a. >> brian: how great is it knowing you are going to get called on? >> peter: you have to be ready. [laughter] a lot more ready can't hide in the back well maybe they won't see me today. >> brian: hahave you never done that in your life. >> ainsley: values a question whether they like it is another story. >> dignitaries come and trump has had a bunch of visits. they used to say 2 and 2 press conference. two for the visiting delegation press and two for the u.s. that's been like a 50 and 2. over the last few. and it's great. >> ainsley: very transparent. >> lawrence: you get to do your job again. >> brian: the president letting everybody know despite some of

the miscommunication elon musk is doing great job he put on truth social. i would like to see him get more aggressive. this is what he said after the cpac speech. remember, we have a country to save but ultimately to make greater than ever before. and that's when -- and that's when elon came out with his tweet tell me everything did you last week, if you don't, i assume you don't want your job anymore. >> lawrence: they have been getting the reporting on this all wrong about the relationship. a conversation elon musk said at one point he was telling the president about a turner agency that things weren't going so well and he wanted to scale back some things. and then the president just get rid of all of it. he goes, are you hauer, mr. president? i think they got it reversed. he is reporting to the president and the president is making the final decision. >> it's interesting the president says he wants him to be more aggressive because some people are upset that they say he has been too aggressive by cutting these jobs, including usaid workers overnight only

2,000 on leave and changed it to 1600. certain people goat stay and the leader get to stay. donald trump talking about elon doing a good job. this is at cpac. >> i signed an order creating the depart department of governt efficiency. you probably haven't heard of it. [cheers] >> which is waging war on government waste, fraud, and abuse. and elon is doing a great job. he is doing a great job. we want to make forecast smaller, more efficient. we want to keep the best people and we're not going to keep the worst people. >> brian: and almost every agency wants him to come in. guilty and gut. treasury. helps. because secretary has certain responsibilities and the president has got to get elected when you have somebody from the outside come in and make some tough cuts. can you say i don't have my hands in that. the blow back they are getting

in some of these town halls, is real. i'm sure there are some people in there that voted for trump that said i worked into work and i lost my job. but that's going to be one of the casualties of having to take a $2.7 million federal workforce and knock it down to maybe half of that. so, i think we have got a heads up on it. i think the president do himself a favor and freshry secretary especially just saying hey, we have a $7 trillion budget. we only make 5.9 trillion, the revenue gap is 2 trillion. this is part of closing that gap. lessens the responsibility. it's not punitive. >> lawrence: there is one portion when it comes to getting rid of the waste, fraud and because and getting our government more efficient. also creates a dliment is friendly to business and apple is making a big announcement today. they are going to invest $500 billion into the u.s. economy over the next four years, start the construction of a new ai server manufacturing

factory near houston, texas. doubling apple's advance manufacturing from 5 billion to 10 billion, ainsley. >> ainsley: opening manufacturing academy in detroit i mean hiring 20,000 more employees and expanding facilities and their teams in michigan, texas, california, arizona, nevada, iowa, oregon. north carolina and washington we're bullish. proud to build longstanding u.s. investments with $500 billion commitment to our country's future. for those people who wonder what are the tech executives going it do so close to president trump? just looking for influence. they are also giving back here. we saw that tech company, filled in that huge power station, $500 billion. even though elon musk had a problem with it. what is he doing what steve jobs shed would be impossible. he says i can't bring manufacturing back. we don't have enough engineers. do you know what is he saying? i will train them. so i will train them and i'm going to go it two cities that could use it.

detroit and houston. >> lawrence: you got training happening in the country, investment back into the economy. you have the president that is threatening other countries saying, certainly we want more of the stuff made here in america as well. this is going to be great for the united states economy. >> brian: and security. >> lawrence: exactly and security. >> ainsley: look at all he has achieved week five. these are the investments he has brought back into the u.s. donald trump has. $14.1 billion bid from nippon steel. 20 billion from hussein certain within ay. 500 billion-dollar over four years from star gate. 600 from saudi arabia they are doing this more work visas

president trump is all in on it to keep our first round draft pick from stanford and university of pennsylvania rather than go back to their respective colleges if we train them here. maybe give them special visas to stay here. lawrence the president is not just for the visa system. he has been candid about saying he wants to restructure the united states immigration. the legal pathway for people to get here. >> brian: i have heard. >> lawrence: before we can do that we have to seal up the border. the president double down again. trump officials revive that title 42 policy and expel migrants. here. >> ainsley: yeah. it was first enacted under covid in 2020. just saying you're a health risk if you come across our country. and the biden administration let that expire in 2023. trump wants to reimplement it again saying that migrants could spread other diseases like tuberculosis. under this policy it permits ban

migrants deemed detrimental to the u.s. public health risk. >> brian: pushback from pro-immigrant organizations saying this is not a real pandemic. that was before a global pandemic that's why we did it. by the way a lot of the people thought joe biden tactically should have left it in place. brian. >> lawrence: he should have. a win. >> brian: keeping his left wing spreaded. guys, my hands are tied. we're in a pandemic. and when the pandemic ended, he could have just left it. he unleashes it. made everything horrendous. and now the president said i loved it. tuberculosis seems to be an issue. let's go with that or some other diseases so whatever is he using. regardless the illegal immigrants cartels don't czechoslovakia sin nation status across the border. they are pretty well organized. the other big issue is -- go ahead. >> ainsley: something ainsley has talked about is the children. during the biden administration, we were -- we're almost over

half a million children that were encountered during the biden administration. and, if you guys remember. part of the reason why there was a separation back in trump's first four years, is because they didn't know who was the parents and who wasn't. who was a part of the cartel that was trafficking these kids but, during the biden administration, they just lost these children. >> ainsley: i know. the trump administration has told ice, directing them to go and find these kids. these are kids who actually crossed the border. some of them very young. without a parent, which is just hard for a parent here in america to understand. the minors would be served a notice to appear in immigration court or deported. if deportation orders are already pending against them going to sorted into three groups, flight risk and public safety and border agents. going to prioritize flight risk. they say that the biden administration has lost 300,000 migrant children. they are worried about them being trafficked. they are worried about them being exploited. >> lawrence: pretty soon congress is going to have to get involved with this.

because i'm talking to my sources in law enforcement, they are out of steam. we are talking about 20 to 30 guys to take down two people at an apartment complex. these criminal migrants. they are running out of resources. tom homan is doing a great job. these guys are gaffes. we have so many criminals. we just focus on the criminals right now in the country right now. the flights have started. the cartels on the run. a big x on all of our law enforcement because the cartel's entire business enterprise has been disrupted, brian. >> brian: big wins, illegal gang member convicted of assault. when you see this video drive you crazy big smile on his face. proud proud of what he did. you also have a situation where in los angeles i guess it's going to start any day now. going to be a massive crack down on illegals out there actually driving through the streets with bullhorns telling people to stay away, ice is coming. that's making the job so much harder because you are telegraphing and then other

people, there are so many illegal immigrants, think of a third of all illegal immigrants are in california because come one, come all. and they have free college, free everything. they say well, it's getting scary for the illegal immigrant community because they're afraid to go to work. afraid to go to school. you brought it on yourself by having this status that was unverifiable that you could never ever become a student because you decided to circumvent the program that's not the target of tom homan. ains. >> lawrence: i don't understand why the boston commission -- i do understand crazy mayor in his city and crazy city council that doesn't want to abide by the laws. >> essentially saying look. got migrants here in the country illegally. but then they committed a second crime. a violent crime against american citizens. some against other migrants as well. you have them in custody. just let our guys come pick them up. we're not asking you to go enforce immigration law. the commissioner of the boston police department saying he is not going to cooperate with tom homan and other l law enforceme.

putting these guys lives at risk by not handing them over. i don't understand how you call yourself a cop and don't abide by the law. >> ainsley: food point. 15 minutes after the top of the hour. turning now to headlines. trump shaking things up at the pentagon over the weekend ousting the joint chiefs chairmanman, the navy's top admiral and senior defense. hegseth reacting to the moves yesterday. >> nothing about this is unprecedented. the president deserves to pick his key national security and military advisory team. there are lots of presidents who have made changes. there were six three and four star generals moved into different positions or retired on friday night. of 160, three and four star generals. >> ainsley: joint chiefs vice chairman admirable christopher grady is set to serve as the interim. u.s. border patrol is moving into the former usaid headquarters in d.c. a spokesman telling our digital team, quote: cbp has signed a license agreement to occupy

approximately 390,000 usable square feet in the usaid tower. it comes as the trump administration has already put at least 1600 usaid staffers on leave word wide. >> lawrence: i love it. >> ainsley: president trump naming former spaghetti dan bongino as deputy director of the fbi. the president congratulating bongino last night saying great news for law enforcement and american justice. duongdan bongino just named thet deputy director of the fbi by the man who will be the best ever director, kash patel. and, actress jane fonda telling america what it really means to be woke at the sag awards last night while accepting their lifetime achievement awards. >> what we create is empathy. make no mistake, empathy is not weak or woke. and by the way woke just means you give a bleep about other

people. even if they are a different political persuasion we need to call upon our empathy and not judge. >> ainsley: the actress went on to advocate for unions during her speech. those are your headlines. >> brian: actually what the country voted against jane fonda is all for. i'm sure that crowd loved it. >> lawrence: keep speaking. you guys are doing a great job. it's not helping your case right now. i got say real quickly. great job by the president kash patel. picking dan bongino to be the deputy director. this is a guy that was willing to take a bullet for president barack obama. even though he disagreed with his politics. that's the type of guy that you need leading law enforcement today. they don't care about your politics. they don't care where you stand on all the issues of the day. just be a good cop. >> brian: you talk about patriotism. is he probably one of the most successful social media moguls in the country. >> lawrence: leaving that you will money on the tactical.

>> media was here and does this thing with social media, which is so cutting edge on facebook, on rumble, which is he a part time investor. this is service. so now -- and he has got that radio show from 12 to 3. hopefully everyone will take jimmy failla instead that was taking dan bongino because he follows. he gives up that right away and going to go in for 1/1,000ths of the money and be with his family even less. this is all about service. >> lawrence: about the country. >> brian: secret service, master's degree in criminal justice. >> ainsley: he loves america. >> lawrence: nypd, secret service, of course he ran for senate before as well. he is a guy that is successful but, also, if you have seen him on our air when he used to work here over the years, he has always been a cop at heart. so this is him requesting back and, remember, the fbi is leading an investigation for the first asse assassination attempt against trump.

dan bongino happening in the secret service. many thought he was going to get the secret service post. now probably leading the investigation into who tried to assassinate the president. >> brian: i think he was offered the secret service post he turned down. this is even better. white house told national security adviser mike waltz to work around the clock this weekend on russia, ukraine peace talks and he did. >> lawrence: he is here to tell us what he has accomplished. that's next. ♪ in 10 years, lisa schneider will have an amazing second act. thanks to career reskilling courses from aarp. to help make sure her income lives as long as she does. the younger you are, the more you need aarp.

>> lawrence: today marks three years since 9 start of the war in ukraine. french president immanuel macron will be at the white house today where is he expected to urge president trump to do more for ukraine in those peace talks. now ukrainian president zelenskyy is even though offering to step down if it will secure peace in nato membership in his country. here now president trump's national security adviser michael waltz. thank you so much for joining the program. >> yeah. thank you, lawrence. good to be with you. >> del me what's the latest on peace talks? are you all close to a deal? i know secretary rubio said that, you know, you guys had a

deal that was going to go to the parliament then zelenskyy said something different to the public. have you reached some sort of deal right now? >> yeah, listen, the negotiations are literally happening as we speak would have been all hands on deck, secretary bessent our treasury secretary has been leading the charge. and frustrations are high, frankly. the united states has stepped forward for ukraine in historic and tremendous way. we are heading, you know, today into the three year anniversary of this war. and we expect the ukrainians to realize the opportunity that this is and president zelenskyy to realize the opportunity that this is. to be co-invested with the united states of america in the future of ukraine and the future of this economy.

and growing the pie in terms of its natural resources. not only helps ukraine but rekeeps these hundreds of billions of dollars american people and american taxpayer going forward president trump expects to get this deal done i think you will see that in short order looks like the conversation he was asked zelenskyy about n n pretty muchd the same thing in private and public. is that back on the table? because he was asked that question and he said that he would be willing to step down. >> that is not back on the table. i do not see the united states having ukraine enter into nato and then having united states

troops essentially obligated immediately in terms of article five or coming to u.s. u.s. troops coming directly in for the defense of ukraine. that is very different. i want to be clear on that. we have president macron coming. we have prime minister starmer of the united kingdom coming. that's very different than the u.s. commitment to nato and existing nato countries. we are absolutely committed to nato at large. our article 5 treat agreement with other nato countries. the security guarantees for ukraine is a different conversation. one of the things that we fully support is both france and the united kingdom and other europeans saying they would be willing to enter into very strong security guarantees for the future of ukraine. that's a different conversation. that's one that we are

encouraged by. because, lawrence, we have been asking for years for europe to step up for its own defense. >> lawrence: i know. >> and we have been asking for years for europe to pay for its own defense as the u.s. taxpayer has been taking an unfair burden for decades now. >> lawrence: congressman, i want to go into specifics of the minerals. before i do that i want to talk about this meeting with putin. i guess my question is is there a meeting on the calendar. i know you have previously said that the meeting will happen once there is something to actually discuss. you guys have talked about a deal. so, is there something on the calendar for the president to meet with putin in person? >> not at this moment. we are having a series of negotiations and engagement at my level and below. we are having a back and forth on kind of what things would look like going forward.

not only to get us to a cease-fire in ukraine, but what a broader u.s.-russia relationship would look like going forward. an important first step is secretary rubio and his counterpart lavrov in hitting our embassies back functioning again. it's very difficult, lawrence, to move the relationship forward if we don't have functioning embassies. >> lawrence: this is the president talking about the mineral deal. let's talk about a little bit of it. >> we are going to get our money back. it's not fair. it's just not fair. and we will see. i think we are pretty close to a deal and we better be close to a deal. because that has been a horrible situation. >> lawrence: tell me, specifically, congressman, what does a mineral deal look like. does that mean that america by extension. if we get these minerals we will guard our minerals as well? are we talking about a large portion of minerals? part of ukraine?

what does that look like? >> well, look, i mean, for example, there is enough aluminum, if -- if their refineries were fully capable, if we had that outside investment for u.s. imports for an entire year. there's enough triduum. there is titanium. one of the largest titanium reserves in all of europe that will take investment to get it to full capacity. our position has been, look, 50% of something that is much larger growing the pie is better than the 100 percent of where they are today. so let's grow together in an economic partnership and, of course the u.s. would protect our assets for which we were invested in. this could mean trillions not only for the ukrainian people but for us and the stability for the reasoning that economic investment is one of the

security guarantees that ukraine could hope for. >> lawrence: congressman, before i let you go i have got to talk about the israel hamas deal. looks like they are asking for extension here. last week something tragic happened they sent three bodies back two. of them were the children but the mother was not there. they have since brought the mom back home. it doesn't look like hamas is being an honest broker here. and i know the president has said, previously, all hell is going to break loose in the middle east is hamas listening to the president? >> oh, hamas has listened to the president. remind you and everyone lawrence, we wouldn't be in this position, 29 hostages are alive today and reunited with their families because the whole world listened when president trump said there will be all hell to pay after the biden administration couldn't get this done for 15 months. so, absolutely they are. they are afraid of president

trump. period. and that's why we have seen any movement at all has their behavior been despicable? is it disgusting? should it surprise anyone this is a terrorist organization no different than isis? and, you know, really the needle we're trying to thread right now is getting all of our hostages out. at the same time, though, hamas will not rule gaza. period. they have a couple of off ramps that we put on the table. but, hamas will not rule gaza, they will not cause another october 7th. and we will work with israel to make sure that doesn't happen. >> lawrence: anybody who knows the president i don't think it's best to call his bluff. thank you, congressman, i appreciate you. >> thank you. >> lawrence: so, an illegal immigrant smiles at the camera while he is being arrested. we'll tell you about this frightening criminal record and the sanctuary city that's to blame, next.

collaborating on our efforts to keep our communities safe. that's how we maximize our potential to do our job. >> brian: here's the thing, tom, from his perspective. let's say you are the most law and order person but in a sanctuary city. you can't cooperate with ice. if you do, you will lose your job. number one, you probably won't take the job. number two, if you did work your whole career to get to that spot, what do you do at that point? >> look. i was a sheriff for 25 years here. and i was doing immigration detention for almost that entire 25 years, including -- i never worried about whether or not i was going to get elected or not i swore the oath to uphold the laws and to do the job that the people expected me to do to keep them safe and our neighborhoods safe. you know what? if you are going to quit your job over public safety, tom homan is right. you are not somebody who is a cop. more interested in satisfying the political agendas of the governor of massachusetts, mayor

j.d. vance, speaking to young people at cpac and they say they are seeing more love for trump online tiktok has frozen in conservatism and engagement. and bigger and bigger. all the new conservative influencers utilizing channels like tiktok and instagram have really connected with the youth. >> seeing a lot of the content right now. they see people like donald trump on social media and influencers. they feel motivated by the future of our country. >> ainsley: host of the bret cooper show joins us now. >> hi. >> ainsley: we are happy you are here. you are a gw gen z. you had # million viewers. a lot of young people are listening to you, that's ages 13 to 28. you fall in that demographic. what is it about why are more

young people liking the conservative party. gen z we were born into an incredibly new period of time unprecedented. we were raised entire adolescence first trump president and biden and ready for something new after biden. the system wasn't working. everything we had been promised everything biden had said from student loans to fixing the economy. had hadn't come to fruition and felt like a lot of empty promises in looking at my generation, i think that they realize like let's burn it down basically. let's try something new. we are willing to walk away from what we known and been told imthat they pick and inclusive and what young people should believe and we were willing to try something new. trump is in this new conservative party and maga is rarging against the machine. young people are rebellious and want to try something new. the democrats are becoming

increasingly establishment when they didn't get to choose their own candidate. that forced them to wake up in a lot of ways. they know that the economy has not been great. they can't buy homes. they are stressed about their futures. they think they can't have kids. so when you hear j.d. vance saying things like we are trying to make your life better at cpac. i think that resonated a lot of young voters. >> ainsley: lot of people think likes the progressive movement. mights inclusive of everybody. what are you finding? >> i think that gen z still has those viewpoints. i think the gen z in general is still more progressive we realize that's not the end all. be a good person does not make our economy better. being overly loving and tolerant and bending and changing our entire society for a small minority of people a small fraction of people in these intersectional communities that is not going to make our lives better. i think they have been, you

know, taunted and jeered at told that they are inherently racist or inherently homophobic or making a joke. i think they finally just snapped and said this isn't creating any tangible change for my future. >> ainsley: what about gen zers with trump's first 100 days. he has been in for a month we are in week five. >> i think that gen z right now, the reason why he won was because of new media and gen z. he was on shows like joe rogan and doing things with the paul brothers. seeing him driving a trash truck. viral. >> ainsley: working at mcdonald's. >> yeah. keep that gen z busy. i think tapping back into that kind of media and continuing to go on those podcasts because that's how he will tap back into gen z. unfortunately gen z is not watching c-span. they are not checking x every

morning what executive order did he sign. they are going on tiktok. they are listening to their favorite podcast so i think a great thing for him to do would be to keep reaching them in that regard because that's how they are going to stay in touch. i think right now they are probably standing by. keeping tabs and checking in. but, i think until he reaches them again through media or until tangible change is made when they start feeling the impacts policy specifically. i think that's when it will really click. >> ainsley: i'm so proud of you. your story is incredible. you were going through a crisis and graduated you were a covid student. >> yeah. >> ainsley: you didn't know what to do after college. you started working for prepprageru. >> i'm very grateful to have this opportunity. >> ainsley: thank you very much. let's hand it over to brian. >> brian: thank you so much, ainsley. pope francis is still in critical condition resting on 10th day of hospitalization. the vatican saying that the hope
