6:02 am
going to be indianapolis. will: really? pete: i think i'm wrong. but i usually like my chances. rachel: i, i, i don't know, guys. pete: what do we think. reveal. oh, you know what? i got cleveland -- didn't i get that a couple of weeks ago? i thought it couldn't be the same one -- will: it just shows you're just getting. pete: that's not true. [laughter] nope, nope, nope, we're trying. the skyline game. i think it's amazing. will: he loves the skyline game. pete: i do. rachel: i'm starting to get bored with it. pete: we have got to get further along. will: and you were off for two weeks. [laughter] pete: he had to deal with it with just me. rachel: were you doing it last week? will: yeah are, he walks over or there, peers in with his monocl- [laughter] pete: doesn't really benefit me -- [laughter] oh, man. we're glad you're here. fourth and final hour of "fox &
6:03 am
friends" weekend. it's may 4th, year of our lord, 2024. they say may the fourth be with you and may the fourth be with you. rachel: and we're back. the band is back together. pete: rachel's back from italy where she ate a got of great -- lot of great food, saw a lot of historical sites. rachel: i amazing. pete: check out her instagram if you want to see some photos. and we're glad you're here. i guess we should start with some news, how disease that sound? teleprompter says we begin with a fox news alert as more anti-israel protests break out, check out this image of, quote, genocide joe, embossed over a giant american flag last night if at george washington university's pro-palestinian, pro-hamas if encampment. rachel: this coming as a demonstrators face thed off at the university of chicago and 100 prodelawarers rally add9 tht georgia state university yesterday. will: madeleine rivera joins us
6:04 am
with details. >> reporter: more clashes with protesters even as some schools take down the encampments on campuses. on friday police at the university of chicago had to step in and separate pro-palestinian supporters and counter-protesters. it was an attempt to deescalate the situation. in atlanta protesters at georgia state university had a tense but brief interaction with police who tried to hold back the group. meantime, a library at portland state university will remain closed for monthses after protesters took over the building. the university president saying: i took a tool of the branford price miller library, and it was difficult to see this important campus space rendered unusable. the library team is working to get remote services up and running and working to identify alternative study spaces around campus. the nypd believes protests are getting guidance if from somebody. >> there's somebody behind this
6:05 am
movement. the level of organization that we're seeing in both of these campus here and at columbia, leave lets on how to protest, leaflets on how to commit -- [inaudible] if leaf e lets on what to do when you get arrested, leaflets on what to say police when they ask you, there is somebody funding this, there is somebody radicalizing our students. >> reporter: since april 18 more than 2, 200 people have been arrested or detained on at least 49 college campuses across 26 states. will, pete and rachel. will: thank you, madeleine are. highly organized, as we laid out in off the wall. and it does lead to this, if it's so organized it's not necessarily tied to students. it could go on after a college semester is finished. rachel: right. into the summer. will: into the democratic national convention. pete: that's probably the goal they have. yes, this is anti-s israel pork-hamas, but it's really a
6:06 am
leftist, marxist revolutionary organization similar, exactly what we saw with antifa. remember occupy wall street in blm, it's all the same mix of left-wing characters. at this moment it's going after israel and their war against hamas, but it's really whatever they want it to be, and they're dissatisfied with joe, and the convention's going to be interesting. rachel: yeah. the protesters are dissatisfied with joe, but george to soros, as you guys broke it down beautifully in off the wall, george soros, the rock feller foundation, what do these really rich millionaire, billionaires, what's their end goal here? why are they funding and helping to organize this? if why don't they a want to be seen as the funders in it's like, you know, they have this dark money way of, you know, getting the money to all these different groups. i want to know what's behind that. i want to know why the republican party has diseased to respond to this -- decided to respond to this with, like, more censorship of speech with their
6:07 am
really strange anti-semitism hate speech bill with. i think we need to dig into what's behind that. sounds to me a little bit like the patriot act, they take a crisis and this uniparty decides to do things legislatively that are anti-freedom including republicans. and also i'm really concerned about what's going on -- you saw the university of chicago. bill ayers, a domestic terrorist who was sort of, you know, the godfather of the barack obama campaign, you know, he's out there, he's a professor at university of chicago. he's out there -- pete: this one blows my mind. rachel: it does. but bill ayers is out in the open,s mask is off. he's not afraid at all to be deeply involved in this. it's very troubling. will: you're right, pete, in that it's not just, it's not just the spirit, it's the funders who are behind a lot of these same things, occupy wall street, blm or this. and it really does call on what is the ultimate motivation? what's the tie that binds all of these things? pete: maybe it's tear that guy
6:08 am
down, maybe it's to -- rachel: why george soros? what is it? why does that guy -- whenever something horrible happens, that guy's name surfaces. pete: there's always, in my mind, there's an atheist, godless motivation. you're rejecting western civilization, you're rejecting christianity, you're rejecting success. a lot of it is america is successful. capitalism has been successful. it brings wealth. with wealth comes a lot of engine or -- envy or guilt, and a lo of these people are angry people with radical -- ray psychopaths. pete: with radical, left-wing views with a lot of money, and they want to tear down the things that have led e to that success. i think a lot of it is they want to play gold. they think we can manipulate human beings enough to en-- engineer them. that's why you get political science departments as posed to pups understanding that we're fallen, framing jill human beings. rachel: yeah. will: if it continues to go, as
6:09 am
we suspect throughout the national democratic convention, it could really hurt joe biden on. pete had tulsi gabbard on, former democrat from hawaii, who talked about it. >> -- his silence for nine days cans and then the weak statement that he made as the vast majority of americans want to sew a president who will uphold the rule of law ors, insure that we can, yes, protest peacefully, exercise our right to free speech, but actually keep the peace temperature and the fact that president biden refuses to stand up very clearly against anti-semitism, they'rer the tie. they're terrified, as bernie if sanders is pointing out, terrified of losing votes amongst the pro-hamas mantra thats that are being chanted it's a dangerous place to have a leader of our country operating from a position of fear rather than standing strong the on our fundamental principles and values of freedom. pete: yeah. she was a former -- she ran for
6:10 am
democrat, ran for president as a democrat, former vice chair of the dnc, and that's why she wrote this book, "for love of country." reasonable people, common sense people, good-natured, peat rottic people like tulsi gabbard a say i'm not part of this, i want out. can that's why you've seen a lot of support move to tom trump. rachel: it's interesting, she was on joe rogan talking about free speech9 and the censorship going on, she's concerned about this anti-semitism bill which is a trojan horse, i'm sure of it, to censor us all. but i got three different people from three different walks of life, you know, e-mail me her, that podcast that she has. i mean, there is just a common sense streak, as you talk about, not everybody is political. just people kind of listening going, that makes sense to me. she's a pretty common sense if person. will: last week we talked to you about the navy falling short of its recruiting goals. there's an update now, the navy and air force are falling short of recruiting for the reserves.
6:11 am
the goal, 57,000 individuals for the navy. it's anticipated there'll be about a 1200 recruit shortfall. and the air force, 69,000 was the goal, and they anticipate a shortfall of 29000. 2900. pete: and part part of why this matters is the are reserves have traditionally been easier ranks to fill than active duty -- rachel: less commitment. pete: a little bit, but you're going through a lot of the same training at the beginning. these are shortfalls that a didn't have to happen. recruiters used to meet their goals much more quickly which brings you to the question of, why, which is part of what i ponder in my book, "the war on warriors." the last deployment that i had, i think i shared a little bit of this, was in front of the white house with a riot shield staring down against antifa and blm rioters. rachel: when was that? pete: 2020. i was deployed with the d.c. national guard.
6:12 am
standing with a riot shield with the white house behind you, with jersey barriers. it felt like i was in a foreign country, but with here i was. and i was watching fellow citizens scream the most racist, vile things at the black soldiers. now, the brotherhood of and the love of those in uniform was amazing, shoulder to shoulder, having each other's backs. but at one point moment, and i write about this in the book, and you'll learn about a lot of stories that demonstrate why we're losing recruit, and i remember look at some of these things on the -- guys on the other side going 20 years ago you'd be on my side. you're courageous, you're brave, you believe in something bigger than yourself. but you think america's a horrible place. and so you're on the other side of the line running into my riot shield. it didn't have to be this way. so part of it is the education system, but it's also the way the military recruits. you guys have seen some of thesely cuting ads. oh, i have two mommies or the
6:13 am
enemy -- or i'm in this because i can help save the environment. that didn't appeal to masculine men in middle america. so i tell stories about guys i went to high school with. some of them went to the army rangers. if they hadn't gone into the military, maybe they would have become toxic mensch but the military refined that view and helped them become really strong warriors. or just patriots who came from patriotic families who said i'll give my son over to the country to serve. now families are questioning that, so you're seeing that in recruiting numbers bigtime. so if you have these questions or a member of your family does, "the war on warriors" breaks down what's being done to our military, why we're missing recruiting goals and what we can do about it. i finish with a letter to my sons, would i want them to serve in today's military. talked to dozens of guys -- rachel: what about upper echelon people that are making the decisions? pete: they're the problem9. rachel: they need the warren on warriors. pete: they're going to hate this
6:14 am
book the most because i call them cowards with stars. they are. there are a lot of generals who went through the rank, hey, i'm for the troops, then they got to the three-star or four-star general level, and the political appointees are saying, well, make sure you include this group or is have a quota for this group, and they're saying, okay, okay, okay. rachel: whatever it takes. pete: a as opposed -- because that gets them promoted, gets them a job in the military industrial complex afterwards. it feeds their incentives -- rachel: that's interesting. pete: absolutely, corporate america's involved. it's pretty scary. we have lots of harvards, right? we only have one 101st airborne. if we lose our military, we're toast. that's what the book's about -- rachel: yeah. we won't be toast if we lose harvard -- pete: i hope we do. but we can't lose the 101st. rachel: great book. hope everyone bias it. will: politico's asking a question, why will no one make fun of joe biden? where are the joke es?
6:15 am
politico -- pete: that's a good question. will: for all his rightness as a public target, biden has escaped some of the pillar are iing some of his predecessors got. there's nothing like chevy chase imitating president gerald ford's stumbles. in the donald trump era, it's prompted a sea change in comedy that has carried over to biden's presidency. the late night hosts appearing to view themselves as bulwarks against trump, careful not to let their humor be with perceived as a advancing his interests in any way. pete: that's right. will: shielding joe biden. pete: so if you joke about biden, you're complicit -- will: in helping trump. rachel: and what is the culture that's driving that? is that hollywood? is it, you know, that they are desiring to be liked in washington too? what is driving it? because, again, some of these motivations confound me. if you're a comedian, a late night comic, you just want to be funny if, and joe biden two
6:16 am
gives you lots of material, and you're willing to leave that on the table, leave all that a fun ifny stuff on the table in order to what? will: trump derangement. there's a lot of contributing factors, but trump derangement syndrome in large part. heavy got to go to their cocktail parties and neighborhoods afterwards, answer to why you would do something that would potentially help donald trump. pete: the networks, the peers, all across the board, just go with the flow. rachel: and there are some examples that were set. remember jimmy fallon? pete: he messed up trump's hair. i think we have a clip of that. this is september of 2016, right? so we're two months away from the if election having fun on a late night show with the leading presidential candidate. and he was viciously attacked. rachel: the joke was is that a wig? no, it's real. do you mind if i touch it? they humanized donald trump in that moment, and they treated him as nicely and kindly -- pete: as any orr guest.
6:17 am
rachel: hillary clinton was on and, boy, jimmy fallon was -- he actually apologized. will: comedy still can exists largely in stand-up where they answer to a board of corporate advisers. that's whatly seinfeld talked about, he said that comedy had died because of pc, far-left wokeness. he's talking about network comedy. anything that has to go through the network censors. none of whom who are on the right, that's not the point, but they don't have sacred cows, and they're funny. those guys exist. pete: we've got them here on our network. they're out there. rachel: they should be able to face some backlash on the trans if stuff over at netflix, do you remember that? will: oh, yeah. comedy still exists, you just don't get it through a corporate boardroom. new overnight, mexican authorities found three bodies with near the area where an american and two australian
6:18 am
tierses were reported missing. officials have been identified the remains but said they were found during a search for the three men. authorities said they found a burnt white pickup truck and tents in the area. mexican officials have obtained arrest warrants for the three people being investigated in connection to the case. these guys were on a surf trip. the baja lawyer. i've done surf trips with my brothers from mexico. these guys justice appeared. appears to be cartel-related. rachel: but mexico is not the same mexico when i was going in college down to baja. i wouldn't go down there now. it's a narco state. will: democratic congressman hen henry way car and his -- cuellar and his wife were indicted for bribery charges accused of accepting nearly $600,000 in bribes including from a bank in mexico. cuellar's also accused of
6:19 am
ennuancing legislation many favor of azerbaijan. they deny any wrongdoing and are free after posting $100,000 bail. my dallas mavericks took down the los angeles clippers 114-101 and won the series 4 games to 2. and those are your headlines. pete: who do they play next? will: thunder. oklahoma city thunder. pete: oh, that's tough one. will: it's good. i'm excited. spring insomnia. hockey, nba, staying up late watching over and over. pete: minnesota timber wolves, 7:00 tonight, round two. the nuggets. will: yeah. our teams are round two. pete: all right, by the way with, be sure to tune in to one nation with brian kilmeade, speaker mike johnson, nyu professor scott galloway and kayleigh mcenany are on deck. rachel: austin, texas, is grappling with an outbreak of
6:20 am
opioid overdoses. we're talking to the ems worker calling out the problem. stay with us, that's next.
6:21 am
6:22 am
every day millions of people ask, "what is scientology?" here's an idea, what if you just take a look? what if you see for yourself who we are, what we believe and what we stand for? our doors are open to all people, of all faiths, in every corner of the world.
6:23 am
so what is scientology? maybe it's time to look and decide for yourself. will: first responders in austin, texas, are grappling with an outbreak of opioid
6:24 am
overdoses. from monday morning into tuesday, ems received 5 51 overdose calls. 4 deaths have been confirmed and 4 others being investigateed. here with more is assistant chief ems steve white. thanks for being with us, steve. can i start with this? this is frightening. this is incredible numbers in a short period of time. i characterized it in the beginning here as overdoses. are these overdoses, or are these people thinking they're taking something else and ending up taking fentanyl because it's laced into these drugs? >> it's a little bit of both. what we're finding is that the synthetic opiates like fentanyl are finding their ways into other illicit drugs that would normally be considered a still. atlanta. stimulant. so if someone is expecting to use a stem atlanta like methamphetamine or cocaine or crack, they're not expecting to
6:25 am
have the effects of an opiate overdose because they're not expecting opiates in that drug supply. will: yeah. that's the story that i've often heard, that there's a famous story from here in new york where a couple of young ladies thought they were buying cocaine. they all died because it had heavy amounts of fentanyl in it as well. you have all of these calls in austin in a one-week purchase. who is, who are the victims? if who is making their way into the hospitals in is this college can kids? is it, you know, habitual drug users? has it you're seeing? -- who is it you're seeing? >> that's a really good question because what we have found is that when it comes to these opioid overdoses, there are no boundaries that it seems to stay confined within. it's going to cross geographical boundaries, age demographics, socioeconomic demographics. we saw that this surge in overdoses affected every part of
6:26 am
our community, and it really spanned the entire spectrum of age groups. will: every one of your -- okay, last question. we can see the numbers of just this week, and it's spiked in texas over the year, but this week in particular something happened, steve the. what happened? why -- was there a big shipment that made its way into austin? was there a bunch of drugs that got cut with fentanyl? what happened this week? >> we're suspecting that we got a bad batch that had too much fentanyl in the drug supply. what we were finding was that people were using in groups and in clusters, so we would have four or five overdoses in with one one-block area. we would see it move across the city and across the community. that's what we're suspecting, but it's also something that we've been planning for. we've kind of expected this could happen to any city, any
6:27 am
community across the country. will: yeah. i mean, there's just no such thing as, i mean, we're talking about illless sit drugs, but i would -- can ill lis is sit drugs, but i would be concerned about any drug. no one is safe right now from the way this is affecting the nation, and that's really scary stuff that's happening in austin. steve white, travis county ems. thank you. >> thank you. will: all right. unc students protecting the more than flag from pro-hamas protesters this week with, now country music star john rich has a potential offer from them. he's next. ♪
6:28 am
6:29 am
6:30 am
6:31 am
>> so is i stepped up kind of to give a voice to the jewish community on campus and to protect my identity. and when i saw the american flag go down, you know, i knew i kind
6:32 am
of had to step in. pete: university of north carolina students were on "fox & friends" yesterday explaining how they replaced the american flag after anti-israel protesters tore it down. will: now country music star john rich is offering them a free concert to recognize and applaud their pate ott proare -- patriotism. rachel: john rich joins us now. john, it's so great to have you on this morning. so you saw what happened, you're watching what a we're watching across our television screens. you see these young men step up, protect the flag, take a lot of insults from these protesters, and you decide to go, i think i'm going to -- they decide to have a rager, i guess, and somebody put a gofundme for them, and you said i'm going to step in and do a concert. why do you want to do that? >> well, i think young men that show that kind of courage in our country to make sure the united states' flag does not touch the ground which is what they were doing, which tells me that they were raised correctly, they were taught early on don't let the
6:33 am
flag touch the ground. i was so impressed by that, i was, like, these guys knead to be acknowledged and rewarded for that. so i just reached out on my little twitter/x page and said, hey, if anybody can find these guy, tell 'em i want to do a free concert when he was this party that they're wanting to throw. and it has been overwhelming. i've had lots of artists hit me up and say, hey, john, when that happens, let us know. lee greenwood texted and said, hey, i wonder if they'd like me to sing god bless the usa. [laughter] i'm, like, lee, i'm i ooh pretty sure -- we're going to call it flagstock. so we've got hashtag flagstock trending on x for the past couple of days. pete: what are the kids saying? they probably didn't expect any of this. this were just doing what they felt was radioright in the moment. what have they been saying when they hear john rich might be coming to town? >> they can't believe any of it because, like you just said, they were just doing the right
6:34 am
thing, protecting the flag and being patriots. they told me that all this money that's been raised, they intend to donate that money which i think is incredible. they're well-spoken, sincere young men. and i think a lot of us are under the misnomer that all american youth are wayward and tearing down flags. that's just not the case. the ones like e these guys who are studying hard, working hard, trying to plan if out their life and chase the american dream, you don't see those guys and girls on tv because they're not out causing trouble. they're just working hard. and i really believe that this is a moment that will turn the tide for young people in this country. finally waking up to the fact that their country is under attack, and they better make sure their voices are heard to push this back while they still can. will: well, john, hope they accept your with invitation, and you've got to let us know when nagstock is. rah roadway rae we'd like to go too -- [laughter] i'm glad that they're doing the donating the money.
6:35 am
i think that's nice. but america needs a rager at this point. [laughter] that's what i think. will: we're there. rachel: and john rich. will: "fox & friends" for that concert. you have a new season of the pursuit with john rich on fox business. here's a little sample of what's coming up. take a look. >> i think one of the big problems this most people have in life is who am i and what do i want to do for the rest of my life. you ask them e what their majors are, eh, political science, but i don't know. they're there because they know they have to be. but the big problem is do you know who you are and do you know what you want to do for the rest of your life. i was lucky because i always knew what i wanted. will: that's to upfc president dana white, john. looks good. >> listen, it's a way to unplug plug from the chaos for a little bit, watch some shows about people who really chase down their e happiness. they exercised that life, liberty and pursuit of happiness clause in the declaration of independence. it's everybody from ricky
6:36 am
skaggs, tim tebow, adam corolla, wolfgang puck, dana white, gretchen wilson. it is some incredible guests. fox business at, i believe it's 8 to midnight eastern tonight, they'll be running those episodes. can't wait for everybody to to be check it out. pete: the pursuit with john rich, starting tonight at 8 p.m.. don't miss it. new season. one more thing, john, real quick. you've teamed up with return the favor campaign to do great work for vets. tell you are i our audience -- tell our audience about that. >> the vfw has launched a campaign called return the favor, go to vfk.org and check it out. they're hiring people to sit down with veterans if and file their paperwork to recover the benefits they're been owed for sometimes decades. these veterans can't navigate all that red tape, so when you donate a dollar to return the favor campaign it returns on average over $1500 in benefits back to a veteran. so go there, send 'em $10, 20
6:37 am
the, $100 if you can, your money could not be better appropriated than to do that. this is a way we can actually help our vets at no charge, by the way, to the veteran. totally free. pete: return the favor, you see it in the banner. scwop rich, you're doing a lot of good work these days. rachel: i know. he's a patriot. pete: we all know that. will: thank you, john. let us know about flagstock. [laughter] rachel: i know. we want to go to flagstock. pete: will's takeaway -- let's not get distracted from the goal here, people. rae we're not kidding. by the way, yesterday when we did the medal of freedom, i nominated john rich for the medal of freedom. come on, john. invite us. finish. [laughter] will: former president trump and his team in court as hope hicks breaks down on the stand and tax on michael cohen. former federal prosecutor brett tolman on that. ce to learn grit, determination and problem solving.

6:40 am
6:41 am
will: donald trump's new york trial set to resume monday as week three wraps up with dramatic testimony. rachel: longtime trump aide hope hicks getting emotional on the stand when she was recalling her e time with the trump organization. pete: she also took on michael cohen saying, quote, he used to like to call himself mr. fix-it, but it was only because he first broke it. here to react, former federal prosecutor brett tolman. brett, thanks for being here. she was a witness for the
6:42 am
prosecution, but did she help the prosecution or did she help donald trump? >> well, thanks for having me on. i'll tell you, i enjoy remembering my own trials and is witnesses and trying to predict what a jury might do. and i'll tell you, she helped the president. sometimes it does come down to likability. i tried two drug dealers in the same trial. one was often referred to as mean and an ornery and ruthless, the other was defined by witnesses as a really nice and heart-felt -- [laughter] watched his kids very well, and they acquitted him. his name was chico, and he looked like tommy boy in his suit, and i think the jury just liked him. so i stopped trying to predict these things. but i'll tell you, that's e a win for any defendant, if the witness comes off the stand and has indicated some positive hinges about them. will: well, brett, that kind of sets -- sets the stage for perhaps the most unlikable buy
6:43 am
in -- guy in this trial, michael cohen. when and what do you expect from michael cohen? >> i expect him to not be liked by the jury. now if, there's going to be a few that are out -- remember, this jury was asked whether or not they follow donald trump on any social media. but they were not asked whether they follow joe biden. so you have a, you have a leaning jury at least in the eyes of the lawyers as they sit in the courtroom. but michael cohen is, you know, a serial liar and has proven to lie when needed and has proven to be ruthless and has been referred to as really the guy that's going to be in the courtroom that unanimously, you know, people have said negative things about. that's very difficult when that's your tar witness and you have yet to point out through any of the other witnesses an underlying crime. rachel: so this, i mean, this is going to be the first time these jurors actually get to hear from him up close and personal.
6:44 am
