david marcus, thank you for coming on tonight.f you were to summarize why you wrote this piece and why you think these lockdowns told day after day were so important should end? >> i wrote this piece this weekend when i saw images of new yorkers about 4:30 in the morning hours before this catholic church opened offering food. because they were hungry and they needed food. and when i saw those images is really when i went from being frustrated with governor cuomo and mayor de blasio to being furious because people are going hungry, small businesses are being destroyed, jobs are evaporating. our kids are not being educated. people can't get cancer screenings and the governor sits there on his tv show every day and acts as if what we are complaining about is if there is nothing on netflix. it is bizarre and infuriating. >> tucker: why do you think someone has ambitious as andrew cuomo, ambitious politicians tend to pay attention to what the public want commercial completely tone-deaf oblivious to the suffering the pointless suffering

david marcus ac unit failed a few days ago, he called for repairs right away. i have a 2 year-old son with autism and he likes to be very comfortable. so as soon as it started messed up i start calling. that's when he got a dose of reality most places said there are 2 or 3 months out. a couple places are a couple weeks out luckily, a friend has some repair skills and fix the unit prepares to officials are not all the sudden busy because there are more breakdowns as the weather gets warmer instead some homeowners feel what might happen during an extended the wave looking to a thorough cleaning. >>in this cause cleaned out michael was doing preventive maintenance on this unit, a loss of air conditioning is no joke that everyone can find relief out on the river or at the mall. >>don't forget folks are still urged to stay at home and the sick or elderly have a tough time during the pandemic caution is the watchword for technicians are wearing gloves or wash your hands in between calls. >>there were mass. you know we have a. sanitizer and soaps in our car to make su

in the david marcus opinion piece read in part, "if our elected leaders mode save the world's greatest, than the people of new york must do it themselves and dare the state to shut them down. governor andrew cuomo was defending the lockdown while urging critics to focus on the human cost of the pandemic. >> this is one of those situations where you say forget the politics, just do the right thing, save as many lives as you can. i don't really care, frankly. the numbers say we should dial back the economic activity and the experts say we should dial it back, then we will do that. >> singh if worried about the human elements. a bringing back our panel now, i will let you take the mantle first. >> he is concerned about the human cost of the pandemic and so are we all appear there is also a human cost of the lockdown and not just economic cost. there is a cost in lives. 18% reduction in people going for chemotherapy during the lockdown. think of all the people out there with noncovid illnesses that are not getting health care, and then we put 39 million americans out of work. and before th

as david marcus from the federalist continued in that op-ed in the "new york post," he said and thiss the important thing. physical elected leaders won't save new york, the people must do it themselves. barbers, nail salons, sporting goods, movies, open. and social distance. we know how to do that and dare the state to shut them down. that is essentially what we saw earlier in the week when we were detailing live right here on "fox & friends" the opening of that fitness center down in new jersey because even though the state was still locked down. said going to do it. meanwhile, over on another network, a reporter tweeted out last night a couple of graphs from j.p. morgan that he had been receiving. and what they found is that the infection rates declined not increased in states where the lockdowns have ended. think about that. infection rates wept down not up in states where the lockdowns have ended. and it goes on and tweets these lockdowns were justified initially but millions of lives are being destroyed with little consideration that lockdowns might not only cause economic devas

we heard from the author of that piece, by the way, in our 9:00 hour, david marcus.assioned interview. here's what he had to say about his fellow new yorkers. >> people in new york are going hungry. they can't pay their rent. their businesses are closing, people can't get cancer screenings. there's an economic and a human toll to maintaining this lockdown as well as to lifting it. stuart: strong stuff from the "post" and that editorial writer. look who's here. that is kennedy, right-hand side of the screen. i'm sure you saw that front cover. i believe you live at least part-time in new york city. what do you think about this, open it up now. kennedy: yes, unfortunately we have here in new york and other parts of the country, we have fallen victim to the false dichotomy which is, you know, if we don't lock everything down and control every aspect of people's lives, then many people will die and the truth has to be somewhere in the middle. you've also got the governor of new york who so heartlessly forced covid patients into nursing facilities and that's like throwing

marcus. lemonis: okay, thank you, guys. davidgroup. they have really good reach. okay? david: yeah. lemonis: let's go. all right. i appreciate that rachel hired david to lead the sales organization, but it's clear that that hasn't necessarily worked out. so i'm taking her to a food broker in chicago so she can see exactly how good or big the possibilities could be. rachel: so, yeah, i'd love to know a little bit about what you guys do. al: we're like the go-between between the manufacturer and the retailers. so, manufacturers that don't want to have their own sales force for whatever reason, they hire us, and we take products to market. walgreens and cvs. we do publix. we do myer. we do giant eagle, shopko. we also do target and walmart, as well. we have a pretty national coverage. rachel: a little back story from me, i was just a stay-at-home mom -- not "just." big job. but -- and wanted to start this business. and then, in the interim, my husband passed away, and it was out of nowhere, so we really had a tough road. and i have

i'm marcus. >> david. >> nice to meet you. >> nice to meet you. >> i'm alison. >> nice to meet you. >it's an honor to meet you. >> nice to meet you. so what makes this location different from the one that i was at earlier on greene street? >> this store is a small percentage of our business, but we also do all of our shipping here. >> how much business will this store do, this location right here, a year? >> retail sales as opposed to the whole company? 10, 12%. >> okay. so what will i find in here? i mean, pretty much the same kind of stuff we saw at the other place? >> this has pretty much the same stuff. >> so you--how many pies do you make a year? >> 40,000. >> do you make pies in this-- >> we do not make pies in this location. we only make pies in our greene street location. and this is our shipping area where david packs up our packages to ship. these are our products that we use for shipping, and we have dry ice here for shipping. this store costs more to run than it brings in, in revenue, but we need it because of-- because we're doing our shipping out of here. >> oh. the big

. >> i'm marcus. >> david. >> there's barely any flowers on display. the floral designers, well, it's like they've hidden them in the back. why wouldn't you want to put your most important asset front and center? do you know where i find hank? as i walk through the store, i don't understand where hank is. does anybody know where hank is? this guy's supposed to be the business owner? he's asked me to come, and i can't find him anywhere. probably has his hands full with something. if this was my business, i'd be out front and center, especially if somebody like me was coming to help. >> i'm accustomed to the old school. we had a very good management. >> some of the reviews i was reading online is that the business really changed after jacob's passing. >> yeah. people come in here and say, "what's happened to jacob maarse?" >> would he have allowed that? >> no. no. >> hello, i'm marcus. >> hi. marina. >> how are you? >> both: nice to meet you. >> you've been here how long? >> close to ten years. >> ten years? >> i love working in the store. i grew up here

marcus, the latest large retail tore file for bankruptcy. let's get to rick santelli who has a special guest for us this morning as well. >> thank you, david.welcome carlos gi gutierrez, former secretary of commerce under president bush. thank you for joining me today >> thank you thank you for having me, rick. >> all right put on your commerce secretary hat here so we had initial jobless claims today a whisker under 3.2 million. if you look at all the numbers going back to the 20th of march, cumulative running totals, 33.5 million claims running 22.65 millions how do you look at the numbers acknowledging the cessation? >> it's a horrifying number, obviously, rick. what concerns me is we look at the total number, and the expectation, of course, is that those jobs will come back. my concern is that not all of those jobs will come back. some restaurants are open at half capacity. hotels will not be at full occupancy. you know, the economy will not be running at 100% for quite a while. so we should expect some of the jobs regrettably, to go away so the idea that we would go back to a 3.5% unemployment rate, i don't believe t real -- it's reali
