Pete it is the 7 a. M. Hour of fox Friends Weekend. Starting with this, more bad news for biden. New polls show nearly half of dems dont want him to be their nominee. As Saturday Night Live takes on age concerns and if his inner circle. Behind closed doors, joe is incredible. Behind closed doors, hes a whirlwind. Behind closed doors, hes a dynamo. I was with joe biden for the past weekend and, whew, he wiped me out. [laughter] will just trying to figure out who was funny. Plus, a School Highs Showdown is on the ballot in texas. Will parents make their voices heard this tuesday . If a. Rachel i hope so. And what time do you drink your coffee . This is a coffee morning. Every morning for you is a coffee morning. This is a jumbo coffee morning. Rachel thats right. Experts are sharing conflicting guidance on the best time for a cup of joe. The second hour of fox Friends Weekend starts right now. If. Hey, you, Get Off Of My Cloud if. Rachel good morning, everybody. Its 7 00 a. M. Here on the east coast. Youre looking at neptune beach, new jersey, or you were. Will the thing is, Saturday Night Live wasnt funny just now. They teed it up with good potential content, right . Joe biden is a font of material for comedy, and i was just i mean pete i think you need to watch the whole thing. Will do you think it was funnier . If. Pete i dont know, i havent seen it will i saw shane willis last week, a lot of skits, really funny. Pete were going to play the whole clip wii. Will we are . Pete its right here. Turn if the page. Rachel Shane Bill Lis has a piece who has downs sun dream, and that stuff was really good. Will part of the thing that shane gillis gets a lot of credit for is not being hemmed in by political correctness, and hell say words that are clearly stricken off, you cant say these words. Not only will he say the word, hell go deep into the topic. And thats to one of the topics rachel he does. He uses the rword, but what he says is liberals are so afraid, you know, hes obviously referring to the eugenics thats used against them. He said, the funny thing is they turn out to just be the best person in the family, which is totally true. [laughter] you guys have Met Valentina will happiest person in the family. They dont worry about the election, theyre not stressed, they just are in the moment and enjoying it. I actually really loved it because i think, ultimately, it was a very prolife message and a really great message about what were doing to people with Downs Syndrome through ace abortion and eugenics. So i think on the whole, net positive. Pete in a moment were going to get a chance to assess whether or not are Saturday Night Live was actually funny if because, youre right, there is. So much material in real life that if they wanted to exploit it, they could. And that a real life material, by the way, leetsz us to our leads us to our first topic which is the way the American People perceive joe biden. Consider the source on this one. We talked about other portions of this poll at the top of the show. This is a New York Times poll, New York Timessienna if college poll. It showed donald trump beating joe biden in the political sense. The underlying factors are pretty damning for the president. Should joe biden be the democrat nominee, is the question. And this is to democrat voters. Will right, thats the key. Pete this is to democrat voters. Its basically a split, 4645 should and should not be the nominee. That alone citing his Approval Rating and Everything Else you see in there has him underwater with his own voters which is not a strong place to be. , and again, this is the New York Times. They dont want to be reporting this number, yet they have to, and its the reality rachel and its an important number because that poll will talk, reflects on the enthusiasm of the voter for that candidate. And youre going. To need a lot of enthusiasm in november if to get people to go to the polls, and you have a lot of divisions in the democrat party. We talked earlier about the Hispanic Vote. But just like the Hispanic Vote which i said is the Working Class vote, youre having problems in michigan and a lot of people focusing on the muslim problem in michigan and not really on the Working Class are Automobile Issue in michigan where theres a lot of problem going on with that. Will did you see batya ungarsargon said that on bill maher . Rachel yes. Shes absolutely right about that. Will she focused on the muslim thing in michigan, youre not focused on what youve gone done to the rachel she was spectacular, by the way. Will what comes closer to how you would feel if joe biden were a democratic nominee for president. Again, among democratic primary voters. 23 enthusiastic, 43 satisfied, 20 dissatisfied, 6 angry. Again, i know weve said it, among democratic primary voters, the reason i highlight that is because those numbers begin to reflect things you see among generalwide polls and Approval Ratings. When you see numbers in the 40s, you think youre talking about, you know, the country. Were not. Were talking about democrats. Thats bad news. For joe biden. Rachel ray yeah. Pete well, they see what the rest of us see and, finally, Saturday Night Live apparently has seen it as well. So last night they took their best swipe will here we go. Pete well see. Saddle up, will. Rachel theyre late to the party though, make no mistake. Pete theyre always late, of course. Will is it funny. Pete here they are on biden. Is it funny. Watch. Behind closed doors, joe is incredible. Behind closed doors, hes a whirl wind. Behind closed doors hes a dynamo. I was with joe biden for the past weekend and, whew, he wiped me out. [laughter] pete not the right clip. [laughter] that was the preview clip that we just showed. Do we have the full clip . Not yet. But they will get it for us. [inaudible conversations] [laughter] pete i thought i did. Whats on the paper is not whats in the computer tv machine. And once they get it dialed into the computer tv machine, boom, its going to be on rachel this is what happens when you use a. I. Instead of human pete are we using a. I. . Rachel oh. The a. I. Machine came up with it. Pete now we have it. Here we go. The New York Times poll today has him down 5 points, and many voters still have concerns about his age. Here with me is governor of california and Biden Advocate gavin newsom. Can he make that case with the speed and sharpness that some of my if [inaudible] cant . Joe can do it better. I was just with him. Behind closed doors, joe is incredible. Lets go live washington with White House Press secretary Karine Jeanpierre. Hello, dana. Pleasure to be with you to talk about the most vigorous man ive ever known, joe biden. [laughter] really . Absolutely. I was just with him. And Behind Closed Doors, hes a whirlwind. We are now joined live by secretary of Homeland Security alejandro mayorkas. Thanks for having me, dana. Man, i am exhausted. I us was with i was with joe biden, and Behind Closed Doors hes a dynamo. This weekend we both went down to the border town of brownsville is, texas, and joe went into beast mode. He said were going to the tighten this border. Look how easy i can cross it. Then he power cored up to the border wall, he front flipped into the rio grande and came back up with a fish in his mouth. [laughter] you didnt report that because it doesnt fit your little narrative. Well, with all due respect, it doesnt fit reality. Will so the end was a little funny. Pete there was another part with Karine Jeanpierre talking about the soul cycle class and all this other stuff that we had to cut out, it was too long. Rachel im old enough to remember snl from exactly, exactly. Im old enough to remember snl pretrump. And it was the funny. Especially, by the way, in the 90s. Its just kind of gone pete well its true. Heres the New York Times, the headline based on this poll, for Democrats Pining for alternative, the biden team that has a message. Get over it. This is kind of answering our question about what do you do next. The biden team views the very question of should he run as absurd is. The president , in their view, has an impressive record of accomplishment to run on. Theres no obvious alternative. Michael tyler, the Biden CampaignCommunications Director said on saturday, our campaign is ignoring the noise and running a Strong Campaign to win just like we did in 2020. So theyre saying you question his age . We dont care. Were running. Will i mean, you pointed out the nikki haley thing. Thats the thing, like, blame the voters. Understand, you dont like what you see . Get over it, you know . If im not sure why they think any campaign thinks thats a winning idea. The problem is you. You dont like me because youre the problem. Why does anyone think thats going to work . Rachel its not. And so the question is, what are they going to do about it . [laughter] pete right now its stay the course. Right now its stay the course rachel jill said stay the course. [laughter] and obamas going request, weve got to fix this. Pete well see. Will the Washington Post has a fascinating article up about have you guys seen, by the way, a lot of people on the left are saying the crime story is fake, meaning pete and the migrant crime story is fake. Will yeah. Saying thats all, you know, Fox News Media creation. Pete look at the stats, they commit crimes at much lore percentages than everybody else ignoring the fact that they shouldnt be with here in the first place will yeah. And ignoring human beings telling you, for example, like you had yesterday, ive got a store in washington, d. C. That ive had to close, we had that story yesterday. And and ignoring the fact that you and i can walk down here to cvs, and everything is behind lock and key. Deodorant pete its a tall point. Will the zombie cvs, mara wrote america is a stickyfingered nation if built on stolen land. More on that in a minute. And its current moral panic is about shoplifting. All over the country if from sea to shining cvs, there are concerns about petty theft which some retailers claim is worse than ever before. Videos of brazen threats have gone viral is. It has become a political Talking Point and liability, but the data is murky. Theft has gotten worse in some cities but better in others. Its either underreported or overhajj rated. Thats, so rachel its an amazing quote, isnt it . She says retailers say, those pesky retailers that are misreeding everyone misleading everyone about shoplifting in their stores. Will is she saying that, like, its as american as a 57ing apple pie . She said, americas a stickyfingered nation pete that sounds like a rachel dont complain about stealing toothpaste. Pete that seems like a line that she typed out will just liked pete yeah. Will just for the record, lets say con kerred, not stolen. Pete if i agree with you. Will theyre very different concept ises. Pete they dont like conquered, will. Will they may not like gravity the, but it still exists. [laughter] the thing about acknowledging the reality of history is that you can have an honor for your historical opponent. You know what i mean . Like, that pete thats often how it will stolen sets the world into an idea of like, you know, i dont know, like, cofiving and menacing. Conniving and menacing. There was a war for america, multiple, and one side won a war. And then the you can say noble fight, you lost. But thats the story. Stolen . Stolen based upon what kind of idea of ownership . If. Pete where does that end and where does that a start . Will right. Pete you know what i mean . Like, whos the o. G. Of whatever particular land . Rachel right now theres a war at cvs is. I cant go there and buy anything for less than 20 minutes because if i want to buy deodorant and i have to go get go people to unlock something, and thats how they live here in New York City. Pete yeah. I dont know where maura juddkis lives, but maybe she goes e to cvs rachel she just said thats the new normal, pete. Its okay. You know, you stole land, deal with cvs. Will shes super young, maybe thats all shes ever nobody. Rachel thats true. The new normal. Pete your exactly right. Of theres a lot of selfloathing there. Well, we deserve this, this is what we get. Will yeah. Turning now to your headlines, the biden administrations confirms israel has agreed to the framework of a proposed gaza ceasefirehostage release deal and its up to hamas to agree to it. A spokesman for the Israeli Government joining us earlier this morning on the agreement. Well, theres not going to be a ceasefire that leaves the hostages in gaza or hamas in power.

Will officials have been working for weeks to broker a deal before the muslim holiday of ramadan which is set to begin one week from today.

Pete thats why theyre so cal those are real big horses. Rachel yeah, they are big. Pete but a regular horse whos been in a pasture wouldnt with that calm around all those vehicles, but a police horse, makes sense. Right . Theyve been trained. Will well, yeah. Pete thats a big old horse. Will i dont know how a passture horse would react versus them. I dont know. Pete loud noises and is cars and beeps [laughter] rachel theyre looking for their cop. Pete amateur horse trainer, you know . [laughter] rachel all right. Well, here is a big debate going on in america right now, like, how, when should you take your coffee in the morning . If. Pete is this a big debate . Will i think it might be. Rachel and my producer said so. [laughter] will when you wake up, this is the an argument against having coffee if pete all right. Will right away. Rachel first thing in the morning. Will your cortisol levels, which enhances alertness and focus, are at so at the peak, cortisol. Pete when you wake up. Will yep. So elevated levels may impact your Immune System, and if theyre already at your peak when you wake up, Drinking Coffee if as soon as your eyes open may do more harm than good and make you immune to caffeine over a long period of time. Rachel so what theyre saying is wait. A lot of people have said this for a whale. When you get up in the morning, have, like, a warm glass of water with lemon pete i like this. Rachel have a warm glass of water with lemon. Will i dont know which of these doctors are right, but i can consider myself a human lab experiment, if im on the water thing. And i like it better. Rachel yeah. You just feel better. Will just fill up a glass of water and chug it rachel i can have warm water with lemm mornings i do it sometimes.

Wendy fox the el, she told fox digital, our fox news digital, she said for some people waking up and having a glass of water rely dates and then having coffee works well. But for others, the Morning Ritual of having a Cup Of Coffee first as soon as you wake up is too good, so i think itsly a matter of will okay rachel were going to have dr. Nicole calf sire on nicole saphier. Will my energy is not where i want it. Youre dehydrated. As much as we travel, just frying . Flying . Yes. Rachel 100 .

Rachel a new report spelling major trouble for medicare and Social Security. Pete experts say the two programs are underfunded by a huge number, 175 trillion. Thats almost two times the entire worlds economic output. And while payments is increased in reap years, Social Security cash reserves are set to dry up by 203 3 which will lead to a massive cuts for americans 65 and older, a demographic that increased by 35 this past decade. So its all a squeeze. Here to react, Freedom Freedomworks chief economist steven moore. Thats a number we cant even fathom. So 175 trillion underfunded over 75 years. What does that mean . Well, pete, good to be with you. This isnt something that just happened overnight. This has been something that people like myself if have been warning about for over 30 or 40 years. We knew that the Baby Boom Orers were going to retire boomers were going to retire. Im a boomer, i was born in 1960, i just turned 64, and we knew that the cohort of children behind them was fewer. And this has been a pay as you go system. And heres the thing, yes, these problems have huge financial problems. But for somebody like me and somebody whos in their 60s or 70s to say were going to cut your Social Security benefits, i think, pete, its unfair. I mean, ive paid into this system every paycheck i got since i was 18 years old, 12 of my paycheck, and im getting a lousy, you know, 2,000 a month if benefit . If come on. If we put that money into a 401 k plan which is something ive always favored, i wouldnt be getting 2,000 a month, id be getting 10,000 a month, and id be able to save, you know, give my grandkids and kids a Million Dollars in benefits. So, no, we shouldnt be cutting benefits. Now, how did we get into this crisis, pete . Its because congress has been stealing the money from Social Security and spending it on other, on other programs. Rachel, if you did that in the private sector and you stole money from a pension fund, theyd throw you in jail. Rachel yeah. And the reason theyre stealing money from is because theyre spending too much. Weve got money going to ukraine, money going total illegals exactly. Yes. Rachel so whats the solution . Is there something, like, if you were advising, say, mike johnson, the speaker of the house, you know, what would you Tell Congress to do to solve this . Because, you know, our what seniors need to know, im actually thinking me and pete and our kids are just going to get zero. [laughter] yeah, yeah. So its a great question rachel. We ought to, starting tomorrow, allow every young person in america whos [no audio] rachel oh, come on. Just when he was going to give us the pete we ought to allow every young person whos working to d rachel what . Pete we dont know. Rachel were going to have him back, because i want to know the answer to that. Pete ive long wanted to opt out of Social Security. Rachel me too. Pete you know its a voluntary program . Rachel really pete oh, hes back go ahead, steve. I want to be clear about this, youd still have to put 1012 of your money into a savings account. In other words, itd be a mandatory savings account, but for every young person, or theyd get much more money out of it. Medicare, by the way, we havent talked about that, pete and rachel. That has even bigger problems. And its such a joke because remember what they called obamacare, quote, Affordable Care act . Do you think health care is affordable . If medicare has gone bankrupt because the government has so screwed up the health care system, i dont even know where to start with that. But i guarantee you, obamacare made the system much worse. And biden also, he stole a couple hundred billion from medicare to pay for all these other programs in the Affordable Care act. So then using medicare and Social Security as a piggybank to pay for all these other programs, rachel, that you were just talking about. Rachel yeah. You know what i think . I think we could solve medicare by getting americans healthy. Yes. Rachel one of the things that i think members of congress should work on is talking about our food supply, gmos, getting rid of stop setting, subsidizing ultraprocessed foods. We can get healthy and solve that problem to some degree. But big pharma and big food want us sick, and pit ends up costing us a lot of money. So thats my thought there. Im okay with that, rachel, as long as you dont take ice cream away from me. Rachel no, natural a ice cream, i just had some last night, i made some at home. Pete i like Sin Net Thetic ice cream, really good. Stephen, good to see you. Rachel bye, stephen. So much to talk about with him. Ice cream and the debt. Pete oh, yeah. Rachel all right.

A new study is suggesting that a fasting diet could reduce your biological age by two and a half years and estimates that a potential 11year age drop over 20 years if youre fasting. So what is it . Its a 5day diet done in a monthly cycle that is high in unsaturated fats and low in calories, protein and carbs in order to tim the late the effects of a stimulate the effects of a wateronly fast. Wow. Here to break that down and the benefits, medical News Reporter and contributor or dr. Nicole saphier. Doctor, what do you think . Good morning being. First of all, were all looking for the fountain of youth. Its not in a pill or a cream, but it may just be in what you eat. The reality is what and when you eat certainly has an effect on your body. Up until now most of the studies on fasting have been in animals, and they have widely shown when you do fasting, some sort of fasting, intermittent or other, it can decrease your risk of chronic illness. When thats from fasting alone or just lowering your weight, we still kind of dont know rachel youre giving your organs a rest. Absolutely. And thats part of the defox process. Usc did a small study in about 100 people, 50 in control, 50 people in this where hay did a 5day fasting. It wasnt like you cant eat anything. Theyre having the healthy fats, good fats, fish, avocado, peanut butter, other things, and they were also taking vitamins so they were still getting sustenance, but they were putting their body in a state of fasting. What they say was can saw was all the again fits of Rescuing Weightings body reducing your weight, decreased risk of medical conditions like heart disease, dementia, those are some of the things we proposed, not necessarily in the study. One thing they also noticed was a reversal of what they call the biological clock. We have the chronological age, but biological age meaning that your immune cells were actually doing better. So that was the thing. And it wasnt everybody who had a reduction in that, but the reality is eating healthier and maybe having these periods of fasting could be good for you not just, you know, your chronic medical disease, but also making sure that your Immune System is healthier. I have done the fasting, i am a huge proponent of it. But the problem is these strict diets are really hard to adhere by. So everything in moderation moderation under the care of a physician. Rachel ray well, it is lent, its a good time to fast. Do it in a healthy way. Dont just starve yourself. Rachel tweens are starting to get rashes from some kind of Skin Care Products that have been popularized on social media. Its a big trend, all these really young kids who shouldnt be in sephora are there. Thats right. This is where im so thankful that im a boy mom. There are a lot of girl mamas, yourself included, these trends that are targeting that genalpha, ages 715. Rachel its crazy. Young girls are using products that have retinal and high driving while intoxicated city as sented in it high driving while intoxicated Hydroxy Acids in it. We need to increase our collagen, give us that youthful appearance. Whats happening in these teenagers, theyre getting rashes, irritation, infections that can lead to scar ising. Theyre going to dermatologists offices, they dont need this. The best thing that teenagers really could use with, make sure you keep your skin clean, use a sunscreen. Studies show 80 of all wrinkles in our age is from sun exposure in the younger age. So we really need to get away from this. Yes, retinal products can be used for acne, but thats under the care of a physician, and its different than what these teenagers are doing. Rachel also i never thought about my skin other than acne when i was a teen, i never thought about wrinkles and plumping my skin up. This is some Mental Health things that were concern. Were contributing more to the Mental Health crisis. Rachel 100 . Okay, weve got to get your thoughts on our big coffee debate. Should you have water before you have your coffee or does it make no difference . I admit it, i have a big cup of lukewarm water every single morning with a little scweaz of lemon. That helps with detoxification rachel is that a thing . And boosting your metabolism. But then i have a solid 46 cups of coffee finish. Rachel 46 cups . I have two jugs of coffee. But ive already had my water, so im ready. Rachel yeah. I know a lot of women, and i do it occasionally, where i have the warm water with the lemon. I think is very dehydrated. He is dehydrated. Rachel doctor, lets have this segment again. I love it, lets do it. Rachel all right. Texas hoedown. 16 is Lone Star State republicans who voted against School Choice are on the ballot this week.

Will its a School Choice showdown. This super tuesday 16 texas state republicans who voted against governor greg abbotts School Choice initiative are facing reelection. Will voters remove them over their stance . Joining us to discuss is Senior Fellow for the American Federation of children Corey Deangelis whos been a great fighter for School Choice across this country. Corey, this is my home state. I am from a rural area in texas. I think it would be qualified as a rural area, grayson county, sherman, texas. And most of the republicans who voted with democrats to fight against School Choice in texas were rural republicans. What was their motivation . Why would this be with something theyd vote against . I mean, the vast majority of these guys were previously endorsed by the state affiliate of the nea, the Largest Teachers Union in the country, so this excuse about being in a a rural area is just that, its them trying to have their cake and eat it too. Other states that have much more rural areas like West Virginia already have universal School Choice, so this is just an excuse. Will really quick though, corey, im just trying to fully understand look, those rural legislators in texas are going to be very republican, very conservative on most issues. Is it that they by the way, theres not private School Options in most of those districts. So you give them a 10,500 voucher, its no real threat to the local school system. Theres no place to go. Is it, well, the School District in that system is a big employer, and thats why the nea endorsement and support matters so much . Yeah. Its because the rural areas is one of the biggest employers, but theyll try to say on the one hand they cant use this, but on the other hand, its going to destroy their fantastic rural public schools. If theyre so fantastic, you should have is nothing to worry about. But if you have no exit options, you should be the last person arguing this is going to defund your schools. Will lets take a look at the states that have emigres braced universe al School Choice, oklahoma, arkansas next door to texas and scattered throughout the south, the midwest and the southwest. Of so this, this proposal by abbott would open un, as i mentioned, 10,500 vouchers to students in texas to apply wherever they want, private, whatever their options, freedom. If. Yeah. You can take your kids education dollars to the public, private, charter or home School Option of your choosing. And if you look back at that map, those are all red states. This should be a nobrainer for a tate like texas. School choice is on the Republican Party platform, and it was supported on the ballot in 2022 by 88 of texas republican primary voters. So this is a conservative gop litmus test issue, and this is partially why these 16 rinos have challengers who all support School Choice. The Challenge Ors are backed by greg abbott, ted cruz, donald trump, even attorney general ken paxton. Were all a rowing the same direction here, the wind is at our backs, and i think a lot of these guys are going to lose their seats either in the election on tuesday or in a runoff later on because this is a huge priority of republican primary voters. Will i want to follow up really quickly. Youre right, by the way, theyre all the challengers have been endorsed by those you just mentioned. One of the things i noticed personally, corey, is while i grew up in a place where you didnt have a private School Option, School Choice is even more important in urban environments where you have failing schools and options. For example, the lines for Charter Schools in New York City are out the door. One of the things you often find in rural areas is apathy towards the issue among the votest. Well, it doesnt really impact us, but youre saying 88 of republicans, they support it, but are they passionate about the idea of cool choice in those environments . If you look at the polling on it from the university of houston, university of texasaustin, if you whether you look at rural, urban or suburban, Republican Voters in particular particular particular are extremely supportive. So this is across the geographic Call Spectrum supported by republican primary voters. So i think, look, and a lot of these incumbents were, they were not endorsed by Randi Weingartens union, the aft, but they are privately being supported by them with phone banking, funding indirectly through the defend Rural Texas Pac which was actually set up in austin, quite a rural area will right. Not. But this goes to show you, the teach orer Union Endorsement has become the Kiss Of Death for republicans in conservative areas. Will tuesday well get exactly the view of the voters in texas. School choice, ideologically the right thing for individual rights, to be quite honest. Corey deangelis thank you so much. Thank you, will.

People come from all parts of the world to come and experience america because we are the Bow Con Of Freedom beacon of freedom, Bee Econ Of Hope to the world.
