System was long before covid took place. A little creativity and imagination would probably be pretty good. But then i remember what reimagination means to the teachers union. This is only so much i can do virtually but perhaps the focus right now should be on reimagining what education looks like in the future. If you prioritize safety we can figure out how to reimagine education. If the future of education is virtual we dont need to imagine what the impact will be on our children. We can see it right now in households all over america. Our kids are struggling in silence, while the unions scream to keep the schools closed. The left likes to throw around phrases like social justice, equity, they say black lives matter. Who do you think this hurts the most . Thats right. Black and brown kids. Thats who. 1 3 of black households dont have internet access. How are those kids supposed to learn virtually . I tell you how. They dont. A study of ohio student found that black kids were chronically absent 60 more this year than in 2019. How will they make those days up . How will they close the gap . The reality is many wont. The fact is this year doesnt end when the lockdowns are lifted. Our childrens study gap isnt just going to go away. Its going to get worse. It will snowball for decades. A sanford study estimates that children who miss out on schooling because of the pandemic could end up earning six percent to 9 less over the course of their careers and if i seem angry or upset by this, please understand why. I see myself in those stats. I grew up in garland, texas, a town outside of dallas where 70 of the students were eligible for free or reduced lunch. Im the oldest of three and my mom and dad both worked hard. Sometimes they had to work late and a principal or Basketball Coach would have to drive me home from school. They did everything that they could do to give us a better life and im grateful for them every day. But i wonder. What would have happened to our family if i was a kid now . What if the pandemic cost my parents their jobs, or better yet, what if they had to keep working . Who would have overseen my schooling . Who would have shouldered the burden of making sure my brother or sister were in front of a computer and paying attention . That would have been on me. The truth of the matter is, i dont know if i would be here sitting in this seat talking to you right now if, if the pandemic would have hit when i was a little boy. Think about it. We wont know the true impact of these lockdowns for decades. But we do know that our kids are hurting right now. They are desperate to return to the classroom. To some kind of normalcy. There are kids here in new york who are willing to travel three hours to play football at a Charter School in harlem because they know playing ball and getting a scholarship is their best chance to get out, to succeed. Why are we making them work this hard . And look at this little girl who was locked out of her school for nearly an entire year. Guess what . What . Really . Ive waited for this for a long time. [girl crying] do you feel that . You cant watch that video and tell me Virtual Learning is good for our children. The isolation alone has taken a toll on our Childrens Mental Health and now we have the facts to prove it. Teen suicide attempts were up 99 in april in 2020 compared to 2019. Overdoses were even worse. Up nearly 120 . Those arent just numbers. Those are our children. Those are kids like Dillon Buckner of north brook, illinois. Just 18 years old. A good student. A popular kid. A Star Quarterback with 14 offers to play college ball. A young man on the rise. Dillon, he took his on life back in january. His parents said he was struggling with depression, which only got worse during the lockdown. His friends and Community Came together for a vigil after he died. If those friends had been able to get together with dillon at any point during the last 12 months, have a burger, maybe study some algebra, would he still be alive today . How many more dillons will it take before we stand up and say, enough. At some point, the pandemic will be over. Our kids will go Back To School and maybe, just maybe, well forget about this last year. Maybe well forget about the people who fought to keep our classrooms closed, even when the science said it was bad for our kids. But dont do it. Never forget. Take action and vote out the governors, the mayors, the school board and City Council Members who put the demands of the unions ahead of the health and wellbeing of our children. Remember this is america. You have the power to fight back. So stand up. Make sure that the people who locked up your children never have the chance to do it ever again. Joining me now is dillons father chris buckner. Chris, thank you so much for joining us today, and im so sorry for your loss. Can you tell me a little bit about your son . Sure, lawrence, thanks for having me on. I really appreciate it. Dillon was a great kid. He had some very kind words you had some very kind words about him and they were all true. A great student, studentathlete. A ton of friends and was really always successful at anything he wanted to do. Before i learned of his struggles in september of last year, he was the perfect kid, the kind of kidney parent would love to have. When did you start to notice a difference in him . Part of my message, lawrence, is that it is just so hard to see these things. Before september, when dillon made the first unsuccessful attempt on his life, i just had no idea that he was in any kind of crisis or battling depression. And i know skeptics might say that you missed something or you werent paying attention but part of my message is just, this could happen to anyone. I think i was a great dad. But i know dillon had the best mom anybody could have, and we loved him, and he knew that, and he had anything and everything you could ask for. He had a warm home. A bed to sleep on at night. He had plenty of food, and yet, he hid this from us. You know, i think thats part of my message, you know, if youre not talking to your kids, if you cant talk about this topic with your kids, you could be surprised, too, and i hope that doesnt happen to anyone, but i hope nobody will brush my message off and think, well, they must have missed something or it couldnt happen to me. I was that parent before dillon made his first attempt in september. I thought this could never happen to dillon or me. This is not the type of thing that happens to successful kids that have so much going in their life. But the reality of it is, it can happen to your kid. Chris, youre obviously great father, when you look at what he was able to accomplish in his short life, he was a fighter, he worked hard, thats something that you can definitely be proud of, but there are Family Members that are listening to this right now. They see something similar, in their own kids potentially. What would you tell those parents . Well, i think youre lucky if you see something, so, if you see something that concerns you, i would take action. I would absolutely take action. Youve got to talk to your kids, really talk to them, but if you know that they have made plans for suicide. If they have talked about harming themselves, thats a cry for help. Thats a crisis signal, and you shouldnt hesitate to call 911, if its that serious, or to try and get your child help immediately, and i think one of the things that people dont understand is that in many parts of the country and in my hometown, this is certainly the case. If you called and needed to get Mental Healthcare for your child outside of the hospital, you may not be able to get it today. If you needed a therapist for your child, a private therapist for your child to talk to you may not be able to find one today because they are overwhelmed. The Inpatient Centers and the therapists are overwhelmed with kids in crisis. But i wouldnt give up the effort. I think a lot of parents may not know, i didnt know, that there are counselors at the school, social workers, psychiatrists, therapists, and if your child is in crisis, by all means, contact them. But dont wait for the police to show up on your door and do a Mental Health check on your child because a friend or someone else has reported then to the police. If your child is in crisis, call the police and get help. Get them to the hospital. Call 911 and get them the care that they need. Chris what do you say to the elected leaders . I think you made great points in your monologue. Back a year ago, when the disease was just Getting Started and we didnt have a vaccine, we didnt know how it impacted all age groups. We didnt really know how to treat it. I think, a short shutdown probably made a lot of sense, but now, after a year, were losing more kids to Mental Health crisis, suicides, than we are covid in their age group, and in cook county where i live according to the medical examiner 38 kids 18 and under have died by suicide in the last year. There have only been five covid deaths. I dont have all the answers for covid. Its complex. But i think people who, like kids who are young and healthy, they are not living in a multigenerational household should be able to choose what they want to do at this point. The Health System isnt overwhelmed. Let the kids go Back To School because being out of school, being isolated, all the stats you mentioned whether its drug use, drug overdoses, suicide deaths, those are all a much greater rest to come kids these days than covid and kids not being able to engage in crick extracurricular activities. Proms, graduations for seniors. These are the events that kids should, in my opinion be able to choose to take part in and shouldnt be stopped from doing so by local, state or federal government. Chris, i want you to know that this audience, were praying for you. Were sorry for your loss. And we hope that your story helps someone else. Thank you so much for being on the program. Thank you. Also tonight, dana, a nationally syndicated radio host. I want to get your reaction to that heartbreaking interview. That was a great interview, lawrence, and my prayers go out to the buckner family. I cant imagine after such an awful year and to have it compounded further by the loss of a child and everything that he said and everything that you talked about, to that point, lawrence, its so true. I realized that a lot of adults out there, they look at these experiences, and the daytoday interactions in the hallway, the games and the dances, as maybe not being a big deal. The night out with friends. Just going to get pizza or hamburgers or something but to these kids, lawrence, and we were all kids, too, this is like a trial run for your experiences in adulthood. But its in a controlled environment where you have your parents. You have your teachers. Your coaches. And these experiences shape who you become. They shape your character. And in addition, just to the academic study, i mean, there is so much that these kids are missing out on, and i know that everyone has sacrificed to different extents, some more than others but the generation thats going to be impacted the most, and i think the repercussions of this, are going to extend far beyond when we achieve herd immunity. Its school age kids. High school, junior, and elementary. Dana, there has been a lot of talk all over the country about the gun lobby, but people dont talk about the power that the Teacher Unions willed. Why does that not get any coverage . I think thats a very good point, and i dont doubt that there are, i mean, of course, there are teachers out there that very much care about the wellbeing of their students. But, you know, when you hear the cdc and you see the statistics, i know we our kids school, my youngests school they did Contact Tracing just like new york did when they came out with their numbers. Of course, schools were the lowest amongst the list of transmissions. Schools, thats not where kids were getting it. In fact, grocery stores, i think, rated higher on the Contact Tracing list than schools did. I think schools ended up being Something Like. 5 , and in new york it was barely a percentage point. So there are a lot of questions that parents have. How come Teacher Unions have this much power and influence and they need to determine where do they want to come out on this . Youre there to represent the voters, not Teacher Unions. Somebody has to be the adult in the room in d. C. And maybe joe biden can do it and convince the Teacher Unions to come along with him. Well see. These politicians have been bought and paid for, and its sad that they are putting Campaign Contributions ahead of the safety of these kids. Thank you so much. Thank you, lawrence. Good to see you. Thanks, my friend. How long can President Biden deny his open border agenda . The preparations that are already under way for the largest flood of Migrant Children weve seen in years. Im a performer. Always have been. And always will be. Never letting anything get in my way. Not the doubts, distractions, or voice in my head. And certainly not arthritis. Voltaren provides powerful Arthritis Pain Relief to help me keep moving. And it can help you too. Feel the joy of movement with voltaren. We made usaa insurance for members like martin. An air force veteran made of doing whats right, not whats easy. So when a hailstorm hit, usaa reached out before he could even inspect the damage. Thats how you do it right. Usaa insurance is made just the way martins family needs it with hasslefree claims, he got paid before his neighbor even got started. Because doing right by our members, thats whats right. Usaa. What youre made of, were made for. Usaa welcome back. President biden boasted about his open border agenda throughout the campaign and now were all paying the price for it. Its projected there will be 117,000 minor children flooding the boarder. More than the last two years combined. Now Border Patrol is offering to send reinforcements but biden says dont worry. There is nothing here to see. Everything is totally under control. Here now, senator tom cotton of arkansas. Senator, nothing here to see . Lawrence, gets to be on with you. The Biden Border Surge was entirely predictable and i predicted it last fall. You cant promise amnesty, open borders and healthcare for illegals and not expect migrants to surge to the border and thats exactly what happened. Every month since the election the number of migrants showing up increases, especially unaccompanied minors. Look what happened compared to the last year of the trump administration. Unaccompanied minors this january are almost doubled what they were last january. This february, almost triple since last february. February is the depths of winter. Texas had a terrible winter storm. What is it going to be like in two months, in 60 days, when texas and mexico have springtime weather. This is entirely the fault of joe biden and his open borders policy. You know, senator, ive been to the border. Ive talked to folks, where it impacts them. Ive seen the footties they put on their feet to hide the tracks. Ive talked with the Border Patrol and understand how the cartel does the business on the border. How does this impact people that arent on the boarder, though . Well, remember, all of these migrants are going to get released into the country. Joe bide isnt reinstituting catching and release. In fact, hes actually seeking out migrants who were turned away last year by Donald Trumps administration and inviting them to come back to the border. Thats not catch and release. Thats recruit and released. When they get released they get work permits, told to show up to court, sometimes as much as two years later, oftentimes they dont and four times out of five when they have their cases heard they lose their cases but then they have got to be deported, right . Do you think Joe Bidens Administration will deport them after they have been in the country for two years with his permission . Please. Thats not going to happen. This is going to flood our communities which will drive down wages and take away jobs. Senator, under the trump administration, it was called cages, and now its called facilities. Did i miss something, did they redesign some things . I was just at the border three weeks ago. What aim missing here . Yes. Pretty soon they may be calling them joe bidens summer fun camps. They are saying were not saying dont come, were saying dont come now. Our Asylum Process is not designed to accept hundreds of thousands of people at our border. Its for people, say, a hong konger who is here in school, his visa is expired and he cant go back because the Chinese Party has cracked down in hong kong. If people overseas or south of our border think they have a valid time to protected status in their country they need to go to our embassies and consulates and seek refugee status. They dont need to take the risks to cross mexico, go through smugglers to get to our border just because joe biden has opened up the borders. Its one thing to debate Immigration Reform but the board issue is totally separate and i think the American People know that there is a crisis unlike what the secretary said. Senator, thank you so much for joining me tonight. Thank you, lawrence. Next up. How District Attorneys radical agenda is letting accused killers off the hook.

In los angeles tonight families of Violent Crime victims are outraged over the radical new Criminal Justice reforms put into place by l. A. County District Attorney. His aggressive agenda backed by black lives matters life without parole sentences. Now there is an attempt to recall him. Hes made it clear the victims of these horrific crimes, families who lost loved ones, are not his top priority. So i did something he refused to do. Sit down with them one by one and hear them out. Watch. [siren] people do not have enough education my son will never speak again because he was murdered. This needs to stop. This man is the criminals best friend. This is torture all over again. Them being on the street knowing they are going to do it again, its not fair. Please. Get this man out of here. [siren] i never thought that i would ever have to lose a child, to say goodbye to a child. Her son julien was brutally murdered in may 2018 but under l. A. District attorneys reforms, all of the special circumstances that would have put these suspects away for life without parole if convicted are now dismissed. It was a slap in the face. Their brains havent fully developed, i do not care. Someone who murders someone, you know what youre doing. The family of Sergeant Steve is also in mourning. She served alongside her husband and wants the killer to face the death penalty. With my husband not only murdered but he was executed, this new District Attorney has turned this Justice System that does work completely upsidedown. We were robbed of our husband. Robbed of my son. And then for this attorney to do this, its just like robbery all over again. District attorney george was sworn into office on december 7, 2020. Since then hes faced swift backlash, not just from victims families but from his peers and deputies within his own office. Within minutes of him being sworn in he adopts add number of special directives which is the wholesale abandonment of victims rights. You can no longer seek Capital Punishment or life without the possibility of parole. Are the criminals aware of these changes . Oh, they are fully aware and they actually love the d. A. You look in the eyes of the victims in l. A. County and tell them they are safe . I cant, no. But one victims family in l. A. County have gotten justice. In 1981, connies 6yearold son jeffrey was kidnapped and murdered. His case was put on hold for 34 years until an arrest was made in 2015 but after the reforms threatened to release the killer early the Orange County d. A. Intervened and the predator took his plea deal with l. A. He agreed to plead guilty without the possibility of parole and go to jail for the rest of his miserable life which my husband and i were just totally relieved. If it wasnt for Orange County stepping in thats right. This wouldnt have gone down the way it went down thats absolutely right. You kept fighting. Absolutely. Until you got justice but there are a lot of other victims that have not gotten justice. I know. If the d. A. Was standing in front of you, what would you tell him . That i wake up every day, one child less. Every day. Every day that have i to look into my grandkids eyes, that hurts. Think about if you had to be at your dads bedside in the Hospital Holding him as they did cpr, what would you want . This is not over. We still have a voice. We can do something about this. Recall this man. Joining me now is desiree, a mother and former Senior Deputy d. A. Desiree, im so sorry about your loss. Your son was beaten, left for dead, he fought for his life, and the d. A. Did what . Absolutely nothing. In fact, he made matters worse for me. I feel revictimized all over again, having to relive moments that i thought i would have justice for, and unfortunately now im fighting for my son all over again, as i did in the very beginning. Heartbreaking. We talked a little bit, we got a statement from the d. A. And i want to read it for you and get your reaction. While a minority of victims want the maximum punishment imposed in their case, Research Shows these views are not shared by the majority of survivors of violence crimes. As most survivors dont find healing by putting another person in a cage. Our system of justice cant continue to rely on policies that create more victims tomorrow, simply because a minority of victims want the maximum punishment imposed in their case. What is your reaction to that, desiree . It makes me angry. Thats a very, very cold statement. It was. The minority of victims dont want this . I havent met one victims family yet that wants their loved ones murderer out. I dont understand that statement. This is a human being were talking about. This is someones life. This is my son, and for him to Say Something like that, it makes me sick to my stomach that thats who we have defending us victims. I truly do not believe he is a District Attorney. He about more like a public defender in my eyes and it really makes me upset. A guy who couldnt even pick up the phone and call you, releases a Statement Like this. Matt, how does a guy like that get elected . Well, i think the stars aligned in the worst possible way in the last election. We all witnessed it. I grew up in l. A. George claims to be progressive. This is not progressive. This is regressive. These policies take us right back to the Revolving Door that we had going in the 1970s and 1980s that resulted in the murders of people like polly klaas. This is the kind of stuff that enacted reforms, like three strikes, like the gun enhancement. This is outrageous. I just heard that for the first time. That the majority of victims dont support that i was a already for 26 years. I attended Parole Hearings for 17 of those as i worked in the Orange County home homicide unit. There is no way its outrageous, absolutely untrue. Victims who lose loved ones due to Violent Crime want justice for the people that were taken away from home and under current California Law there are ways to do that, and George Gascon has unilaterally decided hes not going to impose gun enhancement, sometimes, my clients, i represent five of these, one whom i heard on the clip, her husband was a sheriffs sar joint that responded to a burglary, person he encountered was a violent felon with an extensive criminal history, a documented gang member, ambushed him, shot him once, disabled him, walked over to him, and executed him. Shot him three times in the face and then another time in the badge sending a message, right . That guy, because of George Gascons policies, could be released as soon as eight years from today. So if it takes us another year or two to get to trial thats literally less than six years in California State Prison for that crime. Its astounding. George gascon keeps coming out with these statements that are absolutely not true. They have manipulated statistics. Its outrageous whats happening and the people of los angeles deserve better. Ive got to tell you, ive been following these cases. The guys were in court laughing, high fiving with their defense attorney. Then youve got gascon, never prosecuted a case in his life. This is coming not just to l. A. , but all across the country. This show will stay on. Thanks so much, well get justice. Thank you for having me. Thank you. Minneapolis is preparing for more deadly riots but some of the citys leaders are saying they dont want help from the National Guard. That might send the wrong message. Pete is next with a response. Still your best friend. And now your copilot. Still a father. But now a friend. Still an electric car. Just more electrifying. Still a night out. But everything fits in. Still hard work. Just a little easier. Still a legend. Just more legendary. Chevrolet. Making lifes journey, just better. Its velveeta shells cheese versus the other guys. Clearly, velveeta melts creamier. We were alone when my husband had the heart attack. Hes the most important thing in my life. Im so lucky to get him back. Your heart isnt just yours. Protect it with bayer aspirin. Be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. The former Police Officer charged with seconddegree murder and manslaughter in the death of george floyd begins next week in minneapolis. Calling in a thousand police and National Guard troops for a backup. There is concern that a nonguilty verdict could lead to widespread violence but some say they dont want the National Guard or police around because of their traumatizing presence. I have been a little bit disappointed with the heavy police focus of this plan up until, you know, today. I feel luke i havent i certainly know the Community Feels like it hasnt really heard a plan that earns the kind of trauma that happened this past summer. So let me get this straight. They think its okay for us to keep the National Guard at the capitol indefinitely, but not use them when there is an actual threat to Business Owners and residents . Fox and friends rep joins us, but first, pete, what could possibly go wrong . Thats exactly im from minnesota. You can talk to residents there right now. They know they are sitting on a powder keg depending on the verdict and there is almost no verdict that wont lead to violence. Youve got National Guard some of which were deployed from minnesota to the capitol after what happened there even though there is a nonexistent ongoing threat there so think about it. We need thousands of troops at our nations capitol for a threat that doesnt exist. Yet were not prepared to put any National Guard potentially based on what some of these leaders on the streets when we know there will be violence. There is terror in minneapolis about what will happen yet they wont use Law Enforcement because the leaders of minneapolis are fundamentally unfurious people who dont want to protect lawabiding citizens and they want to play politically correct games. Who else is going to do it, lawrence, if people are he will bent on burning down the streets. It makes no sense. Why the Double Standard . Why the Double Standard . Because its all politics. You can yell about defunding the police all you want. Finding a real alternative, reexamining community police, call it whatever you want, someone out there with a badge and a gun and courage has to go stand between the chaos that you get in moments, and lawabiding citizens who deserve that protection. It wont be anybody else so there is lots of talk about who that might be. Youve covered a lot of it. You just did an amazing segment but it comes down to political philosophy and if you want to let criminals out of jail or you dont want police or you want to be on the side of the criminals youll get more of that criminality. What happens with these Police Officers will in no way be sufficient for the agitators. Not the real people affected but the agitators and youll see violence. Pete, you take some people off of the media when you said this. Ticked some people off. In between bites of bagels, americans talk more about the 10th amendment,es sow tear thing things like the minimum wage. Worships a golf loving Ivy League Educated selfdescribed billionaire who covers his house in gold leafs, as if he doesnt have degrees himself from both princeton and harvard, he derives the esoteric things that the ivy league talks about. Pete . I made the mistake of having respect and appreciation that we talk to, and when i talk, its amazing. What i said on the stage at cpac, they want to talk about faith, family, freedom, first amendment, the Second Amendment and the 10th amendment. Thats dangerous, man. You talk about states rights and any right not given the federal government is bestowed on the states and the people. They get it and they talk about it all the time. The man i met on my way in here gave Me Pocket Constitution and said i hope youll be talking about this tomorrow morning. She didnt even know what the topic was, so average folks love our country, love our cherished freedoms and talk about it all the time and these liberals slamming me have never seen a Fox And Friends Segment so i invite them to tune in, well be in North Carolina talking to the folks at a Family Restaurant and see what they think. What a plug. Ill be watching tomorrow even though im up this late. Love you, brother. Ill be watching tomorrow. Thank you. Appreciate it. The Texas Governor is putting the power back into the peoples hands. Becoming the first to officially lift a mask mandate and the socalled experts arent happy about it. We made usaa insurance for members like kate. A former army medic, made of the flexibility to handle whatever monday has in store and tackle four things at once.

Learn more at factsonhand. Com today. Violent weekend here in the city of chicago. Nobody is talking about these stories but we are. It is now time to open texas 100 . [applause] now thats the texas i know Texas Governor greg abbott is letting businesses and residents decide how they want to stay safe citing declining hospitalizations and increase in vaccination for his decision to end the mask mandate and allow businesses to fully reopen. Joining me now is a Fox News Contributor and host of Sincerely Kat on foxnation. Kat, liberty lives on again in texas. You know what is crazy . A year ago when this was all starting, the original justification for the lockdowns was flatten the curve. Now people are saying this is crazy. Its not crazy were now having teachers say you know what, even if i have a vaccine, im not going Back To School which by the way makes no sense to me. Arent you bored . Im on level 2,733 of candy crush. I may be getting older. Im far too young and definitely too goodlooking to be on level 2,733 of candy crush. Believe it or not, people have bigger problems than that, right . Businesses closing down and livelihoods being destroyed, Mental Health struggles and prolodged loneliness could lead to problems as well. My grandparents are in texas. Still be safe. Right . Grandma and papa timpf, i know you want to hit the club. Not until youre fully vaccinated. Almost as if he said you cant wear a mask. No, hes putting the hands in the power of the people. Isnt that what texas is all about . Maybe im bias because i was born and raised there. This is embarrassing. Democrats pulled nira tandems nomination for omd director. You could have seen that coming, right . Because its a bipartisan position. And she didnt have, you know, the wherewithal to talk about people she didnt like behind their backs the way that politicians are supposed to do when they want to be successful, she put it all out there on twitter. Theres a lot of kids watching Fox News Primetime right now the internet is forever its never really gone. This is true. This is true. Well, she made this bed. Now shes got to lie down in it. One more, speaking of no rules, new jersey law prevents drops telling parents about kids getting caught with weed. I know youre prolegalization, i am, too, but shouldnt the kids parents be notified . I dont understand this at all. Im all about not you know, putting kids in the criminal Justice System over Something Like this but i dont get it.
