former education secretary bill bennett. e press secretary ari fleischer. bill, what do you make of this field hearing and the results from it? >> well, you can't take politics out of politics. there is always politics in these hearings. i have been to 100 senate and house hearings. and politics is there. the question is what was the point? the point was to drama advertise what's going on in new york. and i think the most important statistic, bret, is the one you just put up. downgrading felonies to misdemeanors. it probably should be going the other way. probably should be upgrading misdemeanors to felonies. people are scared to death in new york city. are there cities with higher crime rates? sure. can you spend all your time in new orleans, i suppose, if you wanted the number one. but, look, to highlight this at the same time that they are upgrading donald trump's supposed offense to a felony without telling us what it is is really an outrage. but, i'm a new yorker. people in new york are scared to death to walk the street

bill bennett is moments away on that. he's got a lot to say. jen is a former ohio teacher along with other parents are pushing for schools for the phonnics approach. >> we need to go back to what we know works, having students pay attention to the text that they are reading instead of being cued to look at pictures or context cues. when we do that, we can have a student looking at the text of a word pony and they look at the picture and see the word -- they see a horse and you can see where we start to move away from learning how to read a word. and that's kind of where we have been the last at least decade is we have moved away from explicit and systematic teaching to more of a balanced literacy kind of the thought of learning to read from loving to read and we need to refocus back on teaching kids how to read. >> sandra: i think it's important our audience understands what the new method is that parents and educators are speaking out about, at a time when we are having serious problems with our literacy rates in this country, only to just hav

>> well, the portability of education, conservatives glenn, since i work for bill bennett of the educatione've been talking about school choice. it's happening in some parts of the country. but, this has to be happening in urban america, does it not? to make this really start paying off in real ways. >> that's where the need is greatest for alternatives to the centralized provision of educational services which is failing these families. yes, i would say so. the politics of the problem are very formidable. the democratic control, local governments in the cities are very friendly to the teachers union. very unfriendly to the police units. isn't that interesting? therefore, they won't open things up. they will use every opportunity to resist. >> glenn, it's great to see you. kudos for brown university for having your voice front and center at the university. we appreciate it glenn. >> you're very welcome laura, thank you. >> coming up, to joe biden actually challenge one of the top military officials in the united states to a fight? in the last bite, we will explain, next. this mother's day,

former education secretary bill bennett and former ohio school teacher say school districts need to embracekudlow and brian kilmeade and a whole lot more as we enter a brand-new hour. - you know, insomnia. which was making my days feel like an uphill battle. and i don't like going uphill. that is, until i discovered something different, quviviq - a once-nightly fda -approved medication for adults with insomnia. not getting enough sleep was leaving me tired... oh come on! wait, wait! and slowing me down during my days. on your left! making even the things i love difficult. but quviviq helped me get more sleep. quviviq works differently than medication you may have taken in the past. it's thought to target one of the biological causes of insomnia: overactive wake signals. and when taken every night, studies showed that sleep continued to improve over time. so now that i'm getting more sleep, things are going back downhill. in a good way. do not take quviviq if you have narcolepsy. don't drink alcohol while taking quviviq or drive or operate heavy machinery until you feel fully alert. quviviq

remember, bill bennett brought it up yesterday.to tell us how it's working next. >> if you can't read your life odds are diminished dramatically. not only you can't read, can't do history, can't do math, your ability to read predicts how you will succeed in life and whether you'll make it. -being to me is knowing that i can be free to do the things that i love to do. i hope when i retire someday, they say, that guy made this place a special place to come to school and gave as much as he could to help the community. as someone living with type 2 diabetes, i want to keep it real and talk about some risks. with type 2 diabetes you have up to 4 times greater risk of stroke, heart attack, or death. even at your a1c goal, you're still at risk ...which if ignored could bring you here... ...may put you in one of those... ...or even worse. too much? that's the point. get real about your risks and do something about it. talk to your health care provider about ways to lower your risk of stroke, heart attack, or death. learn more at getrealabo
