[national anthem] if. [national anthem] [national anthem] rachel we begin this morning with a Fox News Alert and and a sad one at that. Three people are now dead and one person is hurt after a National Guard helicopter crashed in texas. Near our southern border yesterday. Pete two National Guard soldiers and one Border Patrol agent were killed. Thats according to military officials. A third sold isier onboard the helicopter is in critical condition. Officials have not yet released the names. Will fox news are now learning Cartel Members were watching with their drone, hen they zoomed in to the crash site and laughed about it. Officials are investigating what caused the crash. Lets bring in chris cabrera, Vice President of the national Border Patrol council and Border Patrol agent in the rio grande valley. Chris, we appreciate you being with us this morning. Our thoughts and our prayers are with you and your with, your members there at the Border Patrol. I know one of those was involved in this crash. What can you tell us this morning about this incident . Well, they were on routine patrol, i think they were tracking some people, some is illegal aliens that had crossed into the country, so they were in the process of looking at them. They had some type of mechanical difficulty, went down in a hard landing and, ultimately, or you know, three died. Rachel yeah. You know, chris,ing i know how difficult this must be for everyone at Border Patrol and the National Guard, everyone protecting our border who puts their life on the line and then to find out that a drone flown by the cartel and posted, the video posted on to social media a mocking and laughing about our heroes, im sure thats just got to administer if pain to what add more pain to what just happened. You know, quite honestly, you know, as agents we dont really put too much thought into what these folks say. I mean, to us, theyre garbage a. Rachel yeah, i agree. Yeah. Were not going to give them their 15 minutes of fame. Instead, well concentrate and honor those that lost their lives and pray for the one thats still fighting for their life. Pete youre right, that is the correct focus. The report or is it was a la coe that helicopter, pretty standard aircraft down there used, like you said, for the mission. What talk to me about how the Border Patrol works with the National Guard because there were soldiers with the Border Patrol. Whats that combination . Why together and what types of things, are they just surveilling to let someone know . Would they stop and interdict or try to prevent someone from crossing . Whats their mission. You know, the National Guard troops that come down and work with us are topnotch, and their pilots are second to none. We love working with them. They come down but, obviously, they dont know the area, the ins and outs, the Traffic Parents that we deal with. So with every helicopter that goes up, theres a trained Border Patrol if agent to act as a spotter. And so when people are coming through, the pilots doing, obviously, the fly fromming. But the agent is in there the flying, but the agent is guiding the troops on the ground to where they need to go. Pete makes sense. Will chris, we appreciate you being with us. Our thoughts are with your agency, your friends, your coworkers. We know you have one in the hospital still, we wish the best for him as well. Thanks for being with us this morning. Thank you. Rachel thank you, chris. I loved his response, by the way with, theyre garbage, and they dont spend a lot of time thinking about it. But the truth is the cartels are laughing every single day at us because we have basically handed over control of our border which these guys are the ones who should be controlling it. But actually its the the control of the border thats been handed over to the cartels. No one crosses into the United States, and millions are crossing, no one crosses without paying the cartel either with cash or with their body or some sort of indentured servitude. Pete no doubt. I hadnt thought about the drone aspect. Im sure thats a very familiar aspect down there. The idea that of course they fly drones to get a sense of where the Border Patrol are so they can send in in the path of least resistance will it is simultaneous obvious and eyeopening. Of course they do. Rachel yeah. And their social media talk. These guys are able to operate with impunity. Will democracy 2024 now, President Biden is already looking ahead to President Trump, or looking he hopes, im sure, past President Trump saying that in a president ial runoff against, between the two, you know, he hasnt decided yet what he would do when it comes to a debate. Watch. Reporter will you commit to the a debate with former President Trump . It depends on his behavior. [laughter] rachel i dont know. I was going to ask you with, what does that mean . Pete if you behave rachel if you behave during the debate with, before the debate . Pete clearly, that was an answer provided for him. They anticipated that question. Of course under their characterization they will never believe that the hes behaving, and so as a ultimate, theyll say, well, we cant debate because we cant give a platform to hate and normalize the kind of threat to democracy that is donald trump and the misinformation he would spread if we give him a platform at a debate and, therefore, its in the best interests of the country that the really old guy who cant talk doesnt take the stage in the debate. That, i think, will be the premise by which they deny this. Rachel you saw a preview when Rachel Maddow was angry that they took on Msnbc A Little Bit of one of his victory speeches during the primary. Shes already laying that out. Do you think that it will happen . I mean, do you think therell be enough pressure, will, that that hes going to have to debate, or is this going to be the last election will well, i dont think hell be the nominee for president. I dont think hell be on the democratic ticket. Rachel Fox News Alert. Pete that would be a bit of an outlier coming out of the State Of The Union, because the consensus was at least for now, it solidified him on top of the democratic side. Will the point of whether he is a nominee is not what he does at the state of the Union Address, its how he polls compared to President Trump. And if the polls stay the way they are today, then you cant run out a man who is unlikely to serve four years and more likely to lose an election. Hes only ever mattered in his ability to stop Donald Trumpment he has never mattered in any other way. Hes not a politician with any big base, hes not got a big supporting cast, hes not got fans out there. Pete correct. Will in a lot of ways hes very much like nikki haley. Its not as though nikki haleys Endorsement Matters to donald trump. Thats not an insult to nikki haley. The point is she didnt have some big a bit. She was simply an other vote to donald trump pete i think hes even less than the nikki haley. Will he is. Hes just an other vote to donald trump, and if he isnt inspirational, they need to find another. Thats what bill maher has talked about, and i agree. What youre about to hear, this is going to be from bill maher, is going to suggest any if other democrat would beat donald trump. I dont know that that is true, but i do know almost my other democrat would have a better chance of beating donald trump. Heres bill maher. I want to talk about 2024. You think biden should drop out of the race in. Of course. I said it long ago. I i called him ruth bader biden. You worry that could help trump if he drops out, theyll win. Biden should drop out, thats the point. Hes being selfish. You know, James Carville was here and said, this was months ago, and he said any 50ish democrat wont even be close. Wouldnt even be close. So, no, of course hes got the voice of god, but who nose. That is my basic belief also. Its theirs for the taking. Rachel well, to your point, i guess if joe biden doesnt win, the most likely if he drops out or at least one of the top contenders will be kamala. I think she would do worse than joe biden. Pete i think youre right. I dont think joe is going anywhere. I think he is selfish. I think he had the performance they think he need to have at the State Of The Union. I think they think they have an Election Machine especially in swing states that can defend him and they will count on the press and everyone else to ramp it up to russiagate level yet again on his behalf. I dont think hes going anywhere. Rachel and theyll do the same thing, beware of the republican mirage thats going to happen in the beginning of when the votes come in and all the kind of stuff they do. And, listen, mailin voting is a recipe for cheating. It just is. And if you really cared about elections, we would have writein ballots, paper ballots, but we dont. This is what they like. I think they seem very confident in joe bidenen winning, and its not because joe bidens great. Will the State Of The Union doesnt matter. Pete if only mattered internally. Will the machine that you with referenced does matter. And i think that is a legitimate rebuttal to my anticipation it wont be joe biden. You could put anybody in front of the machine, and and the machine will push them across the finish line. Joe bidens adversary is not donald trump. As much as donald trump has defined politics for eight years, the truth is what joe biden is fighting now is apathy. So he needs if passion for people, and i think there is fatigue, by the way. I think the resistance has lost some steam. They have to keep believing that Donald Trumps an existential threat to america, and after eight and nine years of that, there is fatigue on the idea that were going to die if donald trump becomes president. Theyll try to ramp it up, youre exactly right. Oh, fascism, authoritarianism, all these things. Theyre going to racism, abortion. Theyre going to, like, smoke every log on the fire to divide you. Im not talking about you or me or even swing voters. Theyre talking about their bas pete the word ive heard for that, amnesia with. Theyre wheeling out, youve forgotten how horrible it was. Will yeah. Pete i kind of feel like it was the good. Rachel remember, i went on vacation will trump stays at 2020 levels but joe biden loses the apathy, t over. Pete oh, for sure. Will so his enemy isnt trump,ing its apathy rachel which is why he gave the speech that he did which was a completely partisan, not unifying speech. He really is but this goes back to the point where youre in danger when you have to give a State Of The Union thats a Campaign Speech because youre afraid that your base has, as you said, you know, theyve lost their passion for you. Pete which is very different, by the way, than the tate of the Union Donald Trump gave in 2020. If you go back and watch it, very different. Another topic here, will, the next gulf ceo will its a Feeder System for the lpga. Pete so the nxxt is a feeder golf will tour. Pete a tour that feeds up to the lpga, the ladies professional golf rachel guess who doesnt play golf. [laughter] no, i dont either. Pete id have to be all over it, and i should have done my research before the show, but its 6 13 a. M. , okay . I figured will would know. So im relying on him, and he delivered. Will i dont play much golf pete he plays a lot of golf. Will i do think fox friends is the place you should be tuned in because breaking, this is a big story, its an advancement of something everyone talks about and that is nxxt has banned transgender golfers from their tour. Now, this is on the heels of a transgender golfer, youre looking at Haley Davidson, man on the womens tour, i believe won several events. Yes, i think won several i think second on their tour. Rachel is that him in the middle . If. Will yeah. Rachel hes not even trying. [laughter] pete whats interesting is, yes, they ban it, but look at his response. His response is to blame the women for it. Heres what Haley Davidson said on instagram after being banned because people shouldnt compete with women in golf. This is what he said. You know what really bugs me . If people think i win by just showing up. This is a slap in the face to all female athletes being told any man can transition and beat them regardless of the hard work those women put in. You think you attacking me, but youre attacking all female athletes. Will i have no idea what that means. Any dude can beat these girls, so i have to pax practice a little bit. And the fact that i have to practice just shows you how hard these girls have to work. [laughter] rachel i thought what he was saying is youre assuming i can beat these girls which youre insulting these girls by assuming i can beat pete thats basically it. Apply the same thing to a sport like the wnba. Youre putting down the amount of time that these women have put in the gym. These women have worked on their dribbling, their passing, their shooting, theyre professional as. How dare you assume that lebron james could walk in and beat them. Thats basically the thought. Will stuart mckinnon, the ceo, says as we get through the evolving landscape of sports, its crucial to hold the competitive integrity. Our revised policy is a reflection of our unwavering commitment to celebrating and protecting achievements and opportunities of female athletes, protecting categories are a fundamental aspect of sports at all levels, and its essential to our tour to uphold all these categories for biological women, females, insuring a level playing field. And i believe, by the way rachel good for them, by the way. Bravo, bravo for standing up will wasnt yesterday International Pete womens day, uhhuh. [laughter] did you celebrate . If big day at the rachel i dont like this idea pete it was started by communists. Will was it . If. Rachel my instincts are so good at sniffing out the commies. [laughter] pete well check in the break, but i believe what i saw yesterday with, yeah, it goes back to a communist holiday will very few know that. But i would its no coincidence this policy was passed on International Womens day. Rachel probably. Listen, one of the people, i think, who is really responsible for bringing this to attention and took a thousand air roar air a rows and so much abuse because of it is riley gaines. I think she is a hero to all a women. She is responsible for all these changes and people rethinking this, and shes going to be on our show later today at 9 20 a. M. I hope she feels very celeb rahty or celebratory, because she should is. Will well see her at 9 20. Until now, a new Jersey Police officer ifs recovering after being shot while responding to a Domestic Violence call last night. Authorities say a suspect opened fire op on officers as they arrived outside a home in Hamilton Township right near the jersey Pennsylvania State line. Another person was also shot, but with officials have not revealed their condition or the status of the suspect who shot the officer. Passengers were forced to evacuate after a United Airlines flight went off the runway in houston yesterday. The plane if rolled onto the grass whenexiting a taxiway. Fortunately, no one was hurt.

And a fort myersbound flight had to make an Emergency Landing in houston when flames erupted from an engine. So everybody enjoy their spring break travel. I know the airports are full.

Rachel well, Climate Activists are coming for americas farmers. We keep talking about that, how a new Methane Satellite and a Government Program for livestock the tracking could pell even more trouble for already spell even more trouble for already struggling cattlemen.

Rachel a new watchdog satellite called methane sat is now circling the globe tracking our methane production. And and as Climate Activists increasingly target ago cur and ago currelated agriculturerelated emissions, could farmers be at risk . Virginia farmer john boyd jr. Joins us now. John, thanks for joining us this morning. Im always a keeping an eye on what theyre doing with these kinds of developments because supposedly its supposed to go after the big, bad oil and gas companies. But theres no saying they cant use this satellite tracking, you know, device to track methane to track ran commerce or and their cows ranchers and their cows and the Methane Emissions there. Are you worried about the same thing . Well, you know, its very alarming for america. We have these kinds of groups putting enormous resources to target farmers and other companies right here in the United States. Why dont they do something to stop china from spying on the United States . Rachel yeah. [laughter] and putting resources there. Its always beat up on americas farmers. And, you know, they put another 15 million into tagging beef cattle for americas farmers. So here we are many farmers are facing foreclosure, are losing their farms, and instead of putting measures in place to help us, today continue to put bad policy in places to hurt americas a farmers. And that same pot pot of money that Congress Passed some months back, A Billion Dollars for climate, and here they have Top Companies like tyson foods and others looking at producing bugs. Whos going to eat bugs out here . Rachel no question about it. You know, it brings we back you know, the state of the Union Address, there were a lot of lies, and were going to be tracking some of them today on the show. One of the biggest was joe biden tying to present himself as a champion of small farms and ranchers. I nearly got up out of my seat when i heard that, because no one has done more to hurt Small Farmers, vilify them as terrorists and their cows as ecoterrorists but also regulating them and now these kinds of technologies which im sure, as you just said, are going to be used against American Farmers instead of the chinese. Well, i sat will there and watched the president s speech, and i did watch it, and i waited for him to say he was going to provide the 5 billion in debt relief that he promised our members. I waited for him to say he was going to stop Farm Foreclosures in this country. I waited for him to address the issue with the lowest Cattle Numbers in history since 1951 rachel really in. And the president spoke about how many potato chips was in the bag. How many potato chips is in the bag is one of the issues he highlighted. And i would like to say to the president if you dont start investing in americas Small Farmers, there wont be any potatoes to put in the bag, because there wont be any Small Farmers in this country, and were going to be begging third world countries to send food here to the United States if we dont start putting americas Farmers First now in the United States. Rachel i want to go back to what you talked about a earlier. There was a 460 billion omnibus passed just this week. 15 million was spent on Tracking Devices for the cattle. Again, tell me why the government needs to track our cattle electronically. They dont. They dont need to track my cattle. If youd like to know, i have 150 beef cattle here on my farm. Ive been been raising beef, good beef, i add a, Grassfed Beef for 41 years here in this country. Im a Proud Dare Cannily Man dairy man, a Beef Cow Farmer here in this country, and thats the way that americas farmers want to be portrayed. We dont want a whole lot of policy that doesnt help us. And is every time theres policies, we have to adapt to these policies. And heres another one, 15 million to tag my cattle when i can gladly tell you what im doing here on my farm. How about putting some laws in place to help Small Farmers or and Beef Cattle Farmers remain on the farm and stop the selling their farms. Usda is selling our farms at record numbers. Were down to 40,000 farmers in this country, and we actually are facing extinction here. Rachel yeah. So instead were faced with all of these bad policies that a dont help us, but hurt us. We have to adapt to them, and today dont want to put the resources in. That same climate money that you spoke about, not a dime is coming to mecklenburg county. Some went to Virginia Tech and others, but no resources is coming to the county that im in, and we represent 130,000 farmers around the country. Rachel yeah. Well, just as you said, the farmers are struggling. Were losing small farms and ranches, ranchers, and at the same time the chinese are are gobbling up our farmland. Yes. Rachel such a misguided set of priorities in our government. Its thanks for joining us, john, and for always shining a light on this problem. Thank you. Support americas farmers. Rachel its an american way of life. Thats right. Okay. Thanks, john. Thank you. Rachel the media with branding the state of the Union Address as a major win for President Biden and a loss for republicans. He scared republicans.

Pete well, The Legacy Media what just fawn ifing over joes State Of The Union performance this week. He certainly met the moment. He aint scared of republicans. He had a lot of moments where he was kind of troll thing them. Ive never brought that much emergency to the 10 p. M. Hour. I thought the speech was very high caffeine. I think joe biden woke up in this morning, had a cup of coffee and had his wheaties. It was like a punch in the face to the republican in the room. Everybody knows this was a great speech. Pete everybody nose. But what does everybody knows. What does joe concha think . He joins us now. Joe, what do you think . I think everybody is misreading what happened on thursday night, pete. Heres what i mean. The president , what was it called, a [laughter] marco rubio called it a proof of life speech, right . [laughter] he showed that he has vigor and passion and can rah really loudly give a speech, right . If thats what it was. It was a speech. Its in teleprompter. The State Of The Unions one of the most choreographed events we see in politics. Let me see what happens if you put joe biden on a stage up against donald trump for 90 minutes and that teleprompter goes away. Suddenly, he has to defend his record based on his own mind and his own acuity. Then i want to see what happens. In other words, biden showed he could read a teleprompter, andhe prepped for that peach for a week. He was at camp david for five days, right . If had no events. Great, you can do that. What happens when you actually have to take questions during a press conference, for example, for 90 minutes from actual reporters . Democrats have hair guy now. Before you heard about michelle obama, gavin newsom going to replace him at the convention. Now they think because of what they saw on thursday night that hes their guy. But dont count on that too much. This is the max headroom president city. Pete but youre confirming that their audience for this was the very people we showed fawning. I mean, today needed to consolidate support amongst their base that joe was capable. So it was a really low bar, and met that the low bar by yelling loudly enough. Like jumping over a speed bump with. This was a speech for the msnbc audience, the cnn audience, the washington post, missouri times. What he needed new york times. What he needed to do was show people in those six states that decide elections that he understands their pain. Like bill clinton once said, i feel your pain. You cant talk about how we have the greatest economy in the world and the lowest inflation which was a lie, by the way talk about crime being at a 50year low which people in San Francisco, chicago and new york who are moving to tennessee and texas and florida will say, no, thats not whats happening. And you talk about a Border Crisis and blame solely republicans instead of just announcing during that State Of The Union that youre going to resume Wall Construction and remain in mexico and eviscerate catch and release. He could have done that, he didnt. Thats the thing. I base people on their a actions, not their words. And joe biden gave us a lot of everything is great, everything is awesome, but people in those states that we talked about that matter heard that and said you dont feel whats going on in the country right now. Pete yeah. But it did its job for his purposes yes. Pete temporarily for now quelling the doubts on the democrat side. The only Construction Hay did talk about was a port in gaza. No border Wall Construction. Youre military. Does this feel like lebanon all over again . Pete its a super dicey situation, absolutely. We will be putting troops in a very vulnerable if position. Therell be more on that coming up, no doubt. Indeed. Pete all right, joe, thanks for checking the media. Great to see you on this saturday morning. Its been a slow week, so its good to get back in.

Hes the father of High School Shooter ethan crumbly, and he faces four count of Involuntary Manslaughter after his son allegedly use requested his gun to kill four students. A teacher took the stand with emotional testimony on thursday. I lock eyes with this person, and if i see and i see some movement coming from the side of him. And i realize that hes raising a gun to me. Will here to react is new yorkbased Trial Attorney rebecca rose. Rebecca, thanks for being with us this morning. Thank you. Will this is a Watershed Case when it comes to how much responsibility the parents have of a child that becomes a shooter. Involuntary manslaughter, is the charge. What of the elements that lead to a guilty conviction for a parent . Well, in this situation its the blueprint has already been set because this mans wife has already been found guilty. The prosecutors allege that that both the parents were just not attentive enough, and in the case of the father, he bought the gun, he signed off on the gun. Theyve already presented that testimony. And he left the gun unattended. So he left it in an armoire not locked, he didnt have the safety will those are new york state law requirements in. This case is in michigan. Will michigan, im sorry. So they also allege that the parents were brought to the school the morning of this attack, and were told their son is really reacting, hes Making Drawings that are very violent with guns, and the prosecutors are alleging that the parents left. They didnt go home to check if the if gun was still there. They didnt do anything affirmatively. They also didnt tell the school that he, that there was a gun in the home that he could have accessed. So these are the issues of gross negligence, which is what Involuntary Manslaughter is in michigan. Will gross negligence, thats and the evidence is access to a firearm that was not secured and notice that the kid in this case had these issues, that they were somewhat dismissive of. And i think even some warning signs he would do something, drawings drawings, violent drawings with a gun, pointing the gun, blood all over in the drawings. So, you know, the students in the school are being protected by the teachers. The teachers did bring the parents in. The problem is, the parents and the prosecutors contention, did not act quick enough and didnt inform anyone in the school will right. That there was a gun. Will lets move now to alec baldwin. In the case, the armorer in that case, i forget her name Anna Gutierrez reid will thank you so much. The armorer whos in charge of handling the firearms and ammunition on a movie set has been convicted. Tell me what impact that that has on alec baldwin, because you would think to some degree that didnt make alec baldwin less culpable. Its interesting, right in so you see that now we have a blueprint, we know where the prosecutors are going. The prosecutors get a conviction on the woman who is responsible for the gun, for everything. Alec baldwins defense is going to say the person that created this problem is already guilt and guilty and will be sentenced properly. Theyre contending that alec baldwin didnt use the firearm properly. He negligently used the firearm. So he pointed a firearm although he didnt know it was loaded, and he didnt check it properly. Alec baldwins defense team is going to say its not his jock to check it. It was someone job to check it. It was someone elses job will with right. And you can have shared cull pant its not all or nothing. Two individuals can be responsible. So the question seems like would be is did he break protocol of what hes supposed to do and how hes supposed to handle the weapon in that situation. The prosecutors are alleging very strongly that he did. Well wait to see what the defense says. Lets see because hes got a very hefty defense team, you know . Theyre top of the line defense attorneys. Well seal if there are things that we dont know that alec brings out in his own testimony or in the witnesses they present.

Will A New Pentagon Report is debunking decades of alien reports saying, quote, no evidence that any u. S. Government investigation academicsponsored research or official review panel has confirmed that any sights of uap represented extra that terrestrial technology. Rachel here to discuss is former u. K. Ministry of defense and ufo expert if nick pope. So, nick, you heard what the pentagon report says. What do you say about it . Well, theres a bit of a disconnect between what the pentagon says and what various whistleblowers have testified to congress under oath. So theres a lot of people in Congress Pretty riled up about this, i think, and really saying that there are the still questions to be answered. Pete but, nick, not a good day for the ufo Believer Community though, right . If youve got this report coming out trying to put a squash on it, wouldnt the onus be on minute to provide more evidence . Somebody to provide more evidence . Yeah, youre absolutely right, not a good day at all. This is a case, i think, of the Empire Strikes back is how this is being portrayed. [laughter] but, you know, look, people are pointing to some fairly fundamental problems with this report that came out yesterday with. I mean, one of them is that the allegation is that some of these programs are either illegal or certainly not being conducted without proper congressional oversight, and they address the issue of whether some of this has been put into the private sector simply by saying, well, we asked people at the aeroprospace companies and they said, no, these aerospace companies. Well, think we need to get some of these people under oath because the whistleblowers have testified under oath. Will i dont know why you find it compelling that the Police Department investigated itself and town no wrongdoing. Pete i didnt say that will everything coming out of the pentagon is absolute gospel. [laughter] but i do think, nick, to petes skepticism, the revelation on Extraterrestrial Life or even just unidentified flying objects wont come from the government. It will never come from the government. And what should be compelling for skeptics or for anyone who wants to believe is at some point there will need to be private evidence. We have private evidence of everything else. Weve all got a video camera in our pocket, so at some point its going to have to be recorded by someone without pentagons stamp of approval. Absolutely, yes. I think people have given up on expecting the government to be truthful about this. And the phenomenon hasnt gone away. Pilots are still seeing these things, filming them on forwardlooking infrared cameras, tracking them on radar. There is a real problem in our air space, and we need to get to the bottom of it. No, this debunking report doesnt really help. And a lot of the people who testified, by the way, havent even to spoken to the pentagon because they dont trust them. Rachel really quick, nick, i dont have a lot of time. Why would the government be trying to conceal this . Why dont they want us to know that there could be ufos . Part of its embarrassment. These things are in our air space and we cant stop them. The other thing is the technology. We dont want an adversary like china finding out more about this. So i think theres a lot of secrecy about the technology. Will all right. Nick pope, thanks so much for being with us this morning. Pete thanks, nick. Rachel thank you, nick.
