"the washington post" crunched the numbers. taken an average, massachusetts family of four with income of about $53,000 a year before the pandemic, one of the parents is out of work, that family will get $22,000, plus unemployment and child tax credits. in total, once you add it all up the family will get more than $50,000. meanwhile, a family of four that did not lose any money in the pandemic will still get $5600. brian: 1400-dollar direct payments. individuals who make under $75,000 will get that. married couples that make under $150,000, will have direct payments of 1400 per person. the bill will provide 1400 per dependent that will be big. get unemployment check and extra $300. that was lobbied by joe manchin, made sure it wasn't 400. 350 billion-dollars key for the governments. $350 billion for the states. how will you get that money? if your unemployment is high, you will get money. no, will get $50 billion for doing nothing for depriving people of their lives and livelihoods, places like tennessee, places like north carolina and places like texas and as well as florida they're not going to get at that type of money because they tried to give their people a chance to make a living. >> this is the "washington post" headline. biden stimulus showers money on american and hurting poverty and shining. $350 billion going to state and local governments. 270 million, this is covid relief. 270 million going to arts and humanities. 200 institute much museum of library services. 90 million student loan outreach. 50 million environmental discusses it grants. 50 million, preservation of native-american languages. dan crenshaw says the covid package cost every american $5700 and gives some people $1400. biden is not a help bring kahn, bribing you with your own money, footing your kids with the bill and some inflation to top it off. steve: that is a good point, "the washington post" makes this point today, this thing injections so much money into the economy at a time when we do not necessarily need it, economists from both parties warn the growth could overheat leading to hard to contain inflation, ainsley which you mentioned. some businesses say that the government aid is so generous this he cannot get the unemployment people to come back to work. so they're going to stay on the sidelines and just get the checks. brian: what i don't understand, how you could do this story and host a sunday show and not bring up the fact that only 9% goes to pandemic relief. not bring up the fact that one trillion from past plans has yet to have been spent. why would you not bring up the fact that we right now are beginning to come out of it with vaccines and we should be responsible in not spending money we don't have. pose that is part of the story, as opposed to ignoring that. steve too luckily we're doing the story. ainsley: we're 28 trillion-dollars in debt, that your grandkids or your kids will have to pay for. griff jenkins joins us live at the border amid the growing migrant crisis. what is going on there? reporter: good morning, ainsley, brian, steve. we're in mat at mexico on the a camp up to 1000 or more migrants forced to remain in mexico under the trump era policy as they pursued their asylum claims. as of yesterday, this camp which held as many as 800 we're told is now closed. you can see the barbed-wire that kept them in. if you look down the hill, you see an encampment of just mexican immigration officials essentially making sure no more migrants come into this camp because they don't want them here. the migrants that have been coming are scattered around this city and the border region. across from me, 100-yards the rio grande river. the light? the distance, it is dark here. the united states, rgv, sector, rio grande valley sector. that is ground zero for the crisis. in the they had 2100 apprehensions. why dhs secretary mayorkas went there with his team. we spoke with migrants gathering yesterday, one gentleman mario, talks about what he believes this new administration will be in his favor to get across. >> the president of the united states, biden, help the people because it is not just you know, we don't have nowhere to stay you know. don't have nothing here. reporter: so what about this camp, the 800 or so that were in here? they have been let into the u.s. most all of them officials say, here, there is a non-government organization that has been providing help, trying to contain the covid threat here. he says that it was at a minimum but we don't know because they're all across the border. meanwhile texas' governor greg abbott in a fight with the white house now because he says he is not happy about the number of migrants who were released that could pose a covid threat. let me give you a number the officials will not confirm but i have from a senior source at cpb. they tell me that since january they have released upwards of 11,000 migrants. compare that to 2020, the number was approximately 1000. however, at the white house, press secretary jen psaki says this is actually on abbott because they offered him money for covid testing. here is some of her pushback. this is what she said. >> the governor complained about testing at the border. people marks dhs, has offered, has worked with local authorities, has worked with local ngos to come up with a plan that covers 100% testing cost for migrants who crossed the border and he has declined that funding. reporter: here is the big question, brian, ainsley, and steve. what about the thousands of migrants are coming because they see a green light on the other side of the biden administration? they're scattered around town. we'll be out a little later to find some other migrant shelters where they have come. brian: griff, thanks so much. i can't believe anyone would think it is not a crisis when a democrat like congressman cuellar says our country is unprepared to handle a surge in migrants in the middle of this pandemic. i urge the biden administration to work with communities on the southern border. they saw it up close and personal. they will come to a military base near you, in the case of governor ron desantis possibly homestead where they were overrun a couple years ago. this is what he said he observed from florida about the border. >> well i don't know if you heard about the border but it is being overrun again. is that going to hit florida? >> i think it will hit the whole country. biden is opening the border. think how hypocritical it is. he tells the average american you're a neanderthal if you want to live in an open state. he threatened to quarantine my state of florida because so many people wanted to travel here but yet he will let these people go across the border, even people that have covid they're releasing into the community. it is entirely reckless. it is terrible policy. it is going to cause problems in our country. it is being done for idealogical reasons. brian: the governor coming up a little bit later. we'll have two parts of a day with him, issues, what is it like running florida. that is coming up at 6:35. ainsley: i couldn't stop watching it. i saw you on "fox & friends" first, great interview. brian: thank you for that. ainsley: stick around. you will want to see it. steve: cover of "the new york post." andrew cuomo says he won't go. that is the senate leader, andrea stuart cousins. she says if more accusations came out about governor cuomo he should quit. over the weaken a couple more did. yesterday she said the governor has got to resign for the good of the state. she called cuomo to tell him that. that he called a press conference to preempt her announcement. essentially, the people put me here. not a bunch of politicians. listen. >> there are some legislators who suggest that i resign because of accusations that made, are made against me. the, i was elected by the people of the state. i wasn't elected by politicians. i'm not going to resign because of allegations. the premise of resigning because of allegations is actually anti-democratic. everybody has the ability to make an allegation in democracy and that's great but it is in the credibility of the allegation. there is no way i resign. let's do the attorney general investigation. let's get the findings. we'll go from there. ainsley: this morning i woke up reading now there are five accusers. there are five women came out now accusing him. and congresswoman nicole malliotakis, there is the five pictures of the girls accusing him. she says, she is republican. she is from new york, represents brooklyn and staten island. cuomo after -- let me set it up before i read it. he has not been so forgiving to other elected officials. there have been other elected officials, it is true if they sexually harassed women they have to be out. she tweets cuomo after lopez accused of sexual harrassment resigned. cuomo after dennis gabrizak accused of sexual harrassment. cuomo after cuomo accused of sexual harrassment, resigning is anti-democrat. brian: some of the women are pushing back. one of his accusers cared ren hinton, i'm not running for office or working for plan for anybody that has to run against andrew. i'm a 6-year-old woman without a job because of my accident. not to be disloyal with andrew is always, always about andrew. he will push back individual. this andrea stuart cousins is the new york state majority leader, she is impactful. carl hasty, new york state assembly. these are both democrats, said we may have many challenges to address. i think it is time for the governor to seriously consider whether he can effectively meet the needs of the people of new york. let me ask you if both heads of your party, of your legislature, if they're getting so close to say resign, how do you with stand that? steve: brian, the picture of andrea stuart cousins who we were talking about earlier, she runs the senate. that is where his impeachment trial would be. if it comes to that. ainsley: if there is due process, he is innocent until proven guilty, this is twofold. female issue and the nursing home issue two. brian: both being investigated. one with the fbi. 16 minutes after the hour. jillian mele not under investigation a request to do the news. will jill not unless something i don't know. jury selection begins with the trial of the former minneapolis police officer charged with george floyd's death. derek chauvin is charged with second-degree murder and manslaughter. he had his knee on floyd's neck for nine minutes. organizers of recall newsom collecting 1.95 million signatures with the deadline days away. the announcement coming on sunday where there was a massive rally across the street from the california state capital in sacramento. the campaign exceeding threshold of 1.5 million signatures as the st. patrick's day deadline nears. a covid-19 pill is now in preliminary testing shows it can stop the virus to reproducing. dr. marc siegel sighs this medication looks promising. >> it may be the holy grail on this because it was just studied in phase two trials and it literally stopped the virus in its tracks and there wasn't any virus found in the patients that were studied. jillian: dr. siegel believes we'll be out of the pandemic by this summer. are's hope he is right. a classic cartoon caught up in the cancel culture debate. >> all right. the courtship is over. hmmm, hmmm. getting there is half the fun. jillian: deadline reporting pepe la pew was cut from the upcoming "space jam" sequel. it was not cut over criticism of the character, "the new york times" columnist considered him proposing rape culture. speedy gonzalez he said promote ad corrosive stereotype. those are the headlines, back to you. steve: thank you very much, jillian, straight ahead on this monday morning, prince harry and meghan markle dropped a number of bombshells that maybe archie's skin color became a point of contention. we're live with a tell-all this monday morning. ♪. s was brutal. well you can try using the buick's massaging seat. oohh yeah, that's nice. can i use apple carplay to put some music on?

the a member of royal family when she was pregnant with her first child. >> also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he was born. that was relayed to me from harry. those are conversations that family had with him. >> if he were too brown, that that would be a problem? are you saying that? >> i wasn't able to follow up with why but, if that is the assumption you're making i they have that feels like a pretty safe one. reporter: the couple relocating to los angeles last year. markle telling oprah the dark place she found herself in prior to that move. >> so were you thinking of harming yourself? were you having suicidal thoughts? >> yes. this was very, very clear. >> wow. >> very clear and very scary. you know i didn't know who to even turn to in that. reporter: certainly shockwaves felt on this side of the pond. the royal family have not responded yet. we heard from the queen in her commonwealth address. she urged unity and diversity. whether we hear from them specifically about this remains to be seen. brian, steve, ainsley. steve: ben i have a question. so much of the interview in the first hour the fact that archie would not be a prince. they would not give the title, security, stuff like that, has that officially been decided? important port no. it has the press are confused the grandson and granddaughter of a monarch becomes a prince automatically. that was set in law. because their grandfather is not yet king, prince charles that is not the case. when prince charles becomes king archie and the new princess will become prince and princesses. a few concerns about the allegation and a few others. ainsley: what do people over there think about this? reporter: some people think that is upset. they have left that is their right to do. they went over to the u.s. claiming they were hounded by the u.s. and want their privacy. they went over there to sign a 100 million-dollar netflix deal. they gave big interviews to oprah and everyone else. people are questioning their motives. that allegation of racism is one taken very seriously. bullying claims against meghan over here. the buckingham palace is looking to those. in the lead-up to the wedding made a number of aides resign and number of them cry. tables perhaps turning on some of the stories but compelling viewing it was. steve: it was something. two hours ago. ainsley: it was. i watched the entire thing. steve: they're watching it today in england. benjamin hall. thank you very much. reporter: thank you. ainsley: brian, you want to weigh in? brian: i do. the racial inference, that is explosive. i think harry has to have a follow up question, who told you that and what did you tell your wife and what did you think when you heard it? did you come back at them? what do you think their problem was? i didn't see that but, she kicked it over to her husband my husband told me said that. steve: there was follow up from oprah. brian: i would think so. the suicidal was shocking. felt unprotected. you know what it is like to be in the headlines, you say to yourself is anyone defending me. i was constantly being attacked. the royal machine was not defending her. ainsley: she said if you look at some of the pictures i was contempt mating suicide that morning. that night we had to go to something, he was holding my hand so tightly you can see in the pictures his knuckles were white because he was clinging on to me. they had tough times. we learned they were having a baby girl. they got married three days before the actual wedding because they wanted it to be private. she didn't talk about her father. i did gather they were one. they were madly in love, felt like to me. they are a unit. whatever her thoughts are, whatever his thoughts are they're together. steve: benjamin mentioned they to the after the story book fairytale wedding they closed a deal with netflix for something like $100 million. they said last night apparently the royal family cut them off financially. they are living on his inheritance from his mother, diana. and he said that he and his father, charles, no longer speak. charles stopped taking his phone calls during meg sit. ainsley: he is talking to his grandmother. steve: nigel farage talked about royal hypocrisy. >> the reason they started criticizing her because of her and harry's rank hip crock tis sy, global warming, flying around the world in private jets just where it started. to accuse our royal family of racism, you know the queen has headed up a commonwealth for 70 years. there are 2.3 billion in it, the vast majority are asian or black people. the royal family have done more to help people of color in the third world than any other family in the world. this doesn't stack up. she wants a career in hollywood. she wants to use the role of being a princess. i'm appalled by what she said. ainsley: piers morgan tweeted out, this interview is absolutely disgraceful betrayal of the queen and the royalty family. i expect all this vial, destructive self-serving nonsense from meghan markle. but to let harry take down his family and monarchy is shameful. brian: piers morgan will be on the show. it is interesting they want out of the spotlight, they want their lives back, they do james cordon's show and sit down with oprah, got a big podcast deal and netflix deal. an interesting way to avoid the spotlight. ainsley: if i got a castle, the jewels and a crown, i wouldn't be leaving. steve: tiara and backup tiara. ainsley: i would not leave. brian: call us if you

know our u.s. national debt is skyrocketing but democrats are showing no signs of cutting back on spending with the house set to vote on the revised $1.9 trillion covid relief bill perhaps as early as tomorrow. while democrats frame it as aid for americans the details suggest other wise. our next guest says with this price tag we could end up like a country he fled. we have young voices contributor and daniel dimartino. >> thanks, good morning. steve: this is so much money they're putting into the economy, there are a lot of economists on both sides of the aisle say we don't need that much, but the white house made it very clear they said, it is better to go too big than too little as we have in the past. do you agree with that? >> i do not. i think that what they're doing is not letting the crisis go to waste and trying to pass all the political priorities, bailing out the blue states that have so much union debt from their public employees they need to pay back. so, if you see what is in this relief bill, supposed relief bill, almost all is going to states based on their population, not whether they lost revenue. so states like florida, that are greatly impacted because of the tourism industry are not getting as much money as they should, while states like california that are collecting more money before the pandemic are going to get a lot of money. i don't think this is necessary at all. steve: sure. you know we talked to governors in states that have been running responsibly, they say, that have been more open, for instance, a lockdown state like where i am right now here in new york, where they will be rewarded for having a high unemployment number. so that, a third of a trillion dollars for state and local government, a lot of people say that is too much for a lot of states that don't need it. but you understand these issues completely because not only are you now seeking a phd in economics at columbia, but you came from a country, venezuela, you were last there four years ago, which incurred a lot of debt and now it is just a mess down there. >> look the reason i started studying economics because i saw in real time how terrible government policy, how socialist policy, destroyed the life around me. i couldn't fit enough cash in my wallet to pay for an empaneda in my school. i lived an economics experiment like an economics textbook. that pushed what i see today. what i see now in the bill, we have so much money, people are not asking how it is being spent. schools will be given over $2500 per public school student in the united states under the covid relief bill. do you think students will feel $2500? give the students $2500. steve: you're right. >> because the money goes to the unions. it will go to the politically connected. this is not what our children should be bearing the burden ever the future. that is what will happen. somebody has to pay the debt. steve: one other thing we noticed what is going on in venezuela, right now the unit of currency down there is the bolivar. they will start printing one million bolivar bills. and one million bolivar bill is worth about 50 cents. that is why most of the people in venezuela and there you can see it on the screen to the right, that is why most people in venezuela, if they can, you know, they will hand each other foreign currency like u.s. dollars and things like that. something of actual value. >> that's right. look, i remember when i was a kid they constantly got new bills. people eventually got tired. that is why they're using dollars. that is the best thing. unfortunately not enough u.s. dollars cash in the country to fulfill the needs of the u.s. economy. i talked with my friends in venezuela, the one million bolivar bill is not enough to buy eight ounces of meat. steve: unbelievable. >> eventually you have to understand, if you keep printing money to pay for government spending there will be inflation. i don't think we'll head there in the united states yet because we have independent federal reserve if the democrats could we know they would. we can't let them. we have to be fiscally responsible so we never go the way of venezuela. steve: daniel dimartino from venezuela, thank you very much. good luck working on your phd. >> thank you, steve, for having me. steve: 21 minutes before the hour. brian sat down and walked around with

governor. meeting to get the day started off. people come in, they weigh if with some numbers. when it comes to the vaccine, how are you doing compared to the 50 states distribution. >> we're either number one or close to the top for senior vaccinations. brian: story popped up in the "miami herald" about you surging vaccines to areas which support you. what is that story based on? >> that is wrong. i didn't do that. we have sent vaccine all across the state. first ones we were doing are in palm beach, broward county, that are obviously not my source of support. if you're 65 and older we have want to get the vaccine to you. brian: what is next. >> we'll get on a plane. we'll bring more vaccines to senior citizens in marion county. brian: let's get going. steve: that was great. brian: that is just the start to his day. he barked it up an hour to finish our show. say this in terms of vaccines, he has a plan. he was going seniors first, over first-responders, even physicians. steve:

west, why are they seeing lower numbers than the south and the northeast? >> that's right. seventh straight week of dramatic decline in hospitalizations across the country and that is largely due to protecting the vulnerable. at the end of this week, 70% of americans, 75 years old and older will have been vaccinated. 65% of those 65 and older. what we've been saying it is time to protect the vulnerable. we're protecting the vulnerable now. the new cases, why we're not looking at new cases as much the new cases tend to be in younger and healthy populations. the reason the hospitalizations are going down the elderly and vulnerable are being protected. that is the plan all along. when the vaccine is more in supply, it is time to vaccinate the younger population to get the cases down. ainsley: what are we doing wrong as far as protecting the vulnerable? >> we're not doing anything wrong. hospitalizations are going down. you have to note states prioritized differently. we saw brian's interview with governor desantis, they made the vaccinating the every derly the priority. the states vaccinated more of their elderly, focused on that rather than professional societies like certain health care workers, the states were able to vaccinate more elderly will have lower hospitalizations and deaths earlier on, ultimately they are protecting the vulnerable. ainsley: brian did mention he think there is is something to the o positive, is that what you have, brian, o positive blood type? we heard that, if you have that your chances of getting covid is fewer otheror less. is that true? >> you know i hate admitting brian is right, science backs it up, the receptor binding motif the area of spike protein on the coronavirus is more attracted to type-a blood. not that it will bind to type-o blood. it is more attractive to the type-a blood. those with type-a have more symptoms or more higher viral load. maybe the virus is not attracted to brian. i don't know. brian: i hope not. >> thank goodness. everyone is a attracted to brian except for the virus. that is a good thing. thank you, how is the book coming along? >> it is such an important topic. everybody recognizes

are you saying that? >> i wasn't able to follow up with why, but if that's the assumption you're making, i think that feels like a pretty safe one. >> reporter: the couple relocating to los angeles last year. markel telling oprah the dark place she found herself in prior to that move. >> so were you thinking of harming yourself? were you having suicidal thoughtses? >> yes. this was very, very clear. >> wow. >> very clear and very scary. and, you know, i didn't know who to even turn to in that. >> reporter: so, yes,sing as we said, everyone here in the u.k. still waiting to hear that interview, but we haven't heard yet from the royal family. no doubt they will all be -- well, we're not sure if they watched it. apparently, then queen was not going to watch it, but they will know what was in it, without a doubt. back to you. steve: benjamin, thank you very much. and there is some suggestion here in the united states the ratings for last night's telecast could actually approach the super bowl. we'll have the early ratings here about 10:00 this morning. >> wow. in oprah fashion, right? i loved watching the interview. they had gotten married three days prior to the actual wedding -- she had a tough time. she was suicidal throughout, you know, what was her title when she was there in london. and she didn't talk about the her father. and i felt like they were very connected. they were both on the same page. like what they're doing or not, they were still, they were a team. brian: i thought it was interesting where she talks about the queen as harry's grandmother, what do you mean i have to curtsy? kind of shocked. you didn't tell me your grandmother was a queen. ing. steve: she said, you know, before i went out, i never googled him. she said i grew up in l.a. where there are a lot of celebrities, and so, you know, it's not exactly the same. and the curtsy business -- ainsley: she practiced right before she got out of the car. brian: so here meghan is comparing her royal life to one of a fictional cartoon character. let's watch together. >> and the little mermaid came on. now, who as an adult really watches the little mermaid? it came on, and i went, oh, my god. she falls in love with a prince, and because of that she has to lose her voice. but by the end, she gets her voice back. brian: wow. i will say this, usually when there's a royal ruse or, like, a hubbub if i can use the technical term, they usually go against the royals. this is the first time the royal v. royal, remember, everyone seemed to be siding with princess diana for obvious reasons, this time i really feel like it's divided 50-50 or 75-25 in favor of the queen. steve: well, piers morgan is going to be joining us, and we're going to be talking with him about what he makes of the interview. meanwhile, griff jenkins joins us live at the border to talk about the migrant crisis. he's wearing a mask, he's just right next to the chain-link fence in matamoras. >> reporter: that's right, good morning. this camp sits directly across the river from brownsville, texas, and you can see the barbed wire here now for over two years this migrant encampment held over a thousand asylum seekers. and there's a sign you can see on the fence helping people with cases, if you and your family have an active case. it also says don't expose your children to the dangers, but we want to show you some of the video we shot of the conditions of what it looked like inside this camp as we've learned that most all of the people that were in there, upwards of 800 migrants, have now since been let into the united states. now, we talked to one gentleman out here, jorge garcia from honduras, who has not been allowed to cross with his family. here's a little bit of what he said with our translator, moira. he doesn't speak english, but here's what he said, listen. >> translator: we're not asking for help, just to be with our family and for work, and that's all we're asking for. at the end i'm going to be with the family. i could cross illegally. >> reporter: so jorge's clearly coming one way or another. we know in the sector directly across the river some 2100 apprehensions in the last 24 hours x that bus stop where we had last week 108 migrants that tested positive for covid, they would be literally across the river and a few blocks away. now, the above of texas, greg ab -- governor of texas the, greg abbott, is very upset, but the white house says it's abbott's fault. here's what jen psaki said at the white house. >> the governor has complained about testing at the border. fema, dhs has offered, has worked with local authorities, local ngos to come up with a plan that would cover 100% of testing costs for migrants, and he has declined that funding. >> reporter: so this camp is empty. they've all been let into the u.s. the migrants are here in the mat horas, in -- matamoras, in a dangerous city. we've learned the white house led that team with dhs secretary mayorkas over here this weekend, because this is ground zero for what's happening on our southern border. steve: griff, just by virtue of the fact that you're wearing a mask, obviously, end coronavirus is a concern down there. when the migrants go into the federal u.s. government facility, are they tested? because we know when they come out, they're tested by by the ngos, the nongovernment organizations, that really don't have the authority to tell people to stop. >> reporter: so the testing happens. the ngos on the mexican side of the border have been trying to offer some testing. but when theys cross, for example, in brownsville, texas, it's the city of brownsville that's doing the testing. that's how we learned the migrants that were released, the 108. but here's what's a little bit concerning, steve, and that is ultimately dhs is not releasing the number of people they're just releasing into the community. i am, from a source, that number's about 11,000, but we don't know the percentage of who has and who has not been tested. that's what's so concerning about the threat. brian: yeah. this is a crisis no matter how you slice it. thanks so much, griff. whether it's change of address forms, that's an issue. we had 71,000 people there, they just seem to have left. what was wrong with the remain in mexico policy? mexico did the not have a problem with it let's bring in arkansas senator tom cotton. senator, this is a crisis any way you slice it, and when jen psaki says on friday if you're a kid, an unaccompanied minor, you're allowed to come in, how does that translate in honduras, guatemala and el salvador? [laughter] >> well, thanks for having me on, guys. brian, the i way it translates is come to america, we'll let you in, and we'll pay for everything. this is a border crisis. this is the wilden border crisis -- biden border crisis. but if you're joe biden the democrat and they don't believe in borders, they don't think it is a crisis. they've literally turned detention centers into veption centers. that's -- reception centers. we've seen the signal that sends. we've seen migrants wearing shirts that say, biden, let us in. this is going to build more and more pressure at the border as more and more people make the dangerous journey to get into our country. and how is this the moral and virtuous thing to do? the biden administration is essentially saying if you're willing to make that long, dangerous journey, if you're willing to put your life at risk or your kids' life at risk, we'll put you in. what about the other people around the world who would like to partake in the american economy and american way of life? they get no chance to. it's totally amoral, and it should stop right now. ainsley: some people wait five years to get a status in our country, but now they're saying we're only going to hold these families for 72 hours, and then they can go free into the united states. is that the right way to handle it? >> no, of course not, ainsley. look, all these people are being -- when they show up at the border, they're being coached to say a few magic words about a credible fear of possessor cues. well, i'm -- persecution. i'm sorry if your country is poor, that is not a way to be begrated into the united states. integrated into the united states. hong kongers who had their freedom stolen from them, we have generous refugee programs to go our consulates and apply to here. our asylum system is not designed for people to show up at our border coached by a bunch of nongovernmental organizations, say a few magic words, given a plane or bus ticket to go wherever they want in the country and then not even show up a year or two later for their court hearing. steve: the big question is whether or not some of them have covid when they're released into the country which would be very disappointing. senator, as you know, the senate the passed the president's and the democrats' $2 trillion relief bill over the weekend. now it heads to the house. nancy pelosi says they're going to pass it, it's going to be on joe biden's desk by the end of the week. the white house has made it clear they want to go big because big is better than not big enough. here's the white house communications director. >> this is an incredibly transformational, frankly, progressive piece of legislation. you heard senator sanders say this is the best legislation for the working people in the modern history of this country. this is a bill that reflects president biden's belief that the best way to get the economy back on track and to get it growing is to invest in working people and middle class people. steve: and, senator, no doubt there are a lot of people who are suffering. "the washington post" did a breakdown, an average family of four in massachusetts with an income of about $53,000 before the pandemic, is one of the parents is now unemployed, they're going to get $22,000 cash from the federal government, plus unemployment, plus child benefits. by the time it's all done, that family's going to get $50,000 out of this bill. >> yeah, and many people who have not lost any income at all are going to get money as well. i mean, young people who didn't file tax returns last year but are now working at law firms are going to get cash as well. this bill is so poorly targeted. look, we were more than willing to work with the democrats as we did multiple times last year to pass a targeted relief bill that helps people who have actually been hurt by coronavirus. but look how crazy some of the democratic ideas are. they had a chance on saturday morning to stop checks from going to prisoners, to the boston bomber, for that matter, and on that they declined. they had a chance to turn down money for sanctuary cities and states. again, they turned it down. they had a chance to stop money from going to schools that are closed. they want to send money to schools that are closed and teachers not even teaching their kids. ainsley: is that true that dylann roof, the guy who walked into the church in south carolina and killed all those people, he's going to get a check? >> every prisoner in the united states if they have any tax forms filed is eligible for a check under this bill. the democrats had a chance to stop that from happening on saturday morning, and they voted it down. i suspect you'll be hearing more about that on the campaign trail. brian: senator, it's so disturbing, because this was supposed to be the easiest thing to get bipartisan support for. the rest of the stuff is off the charts to the left. this voting act, h.r. 1, is absolutely insane. the federal government's going to control how we vote and set up rules? i'm pretty sure that's not constitutional. here's how joe biden, the prime minister, characterized it -- the president, characterized it yesterday. >> last week the house of representatives passed h.r. 1 for the people act of 2021. this is a landmark piece of legislation are that is urgently needed to protect the right to vote and the integrity of our elections and to repair and strengthen our democracy. i hope the senate does its work so i can sign it into law. brian: whatever it is, h.r. 1 implements mandatory automatic voter registration, allows voters to substitute photo id with sworn written statements, expands mail-in voting, that went so well last time. restores voting rights for convicted felons, encourages statehood for d.c. how do you feel about it? >> yeah. [laughter] they call it the for the people act, brian. it should be called for democratic politicians. it does make permanent a lot of the one-time, untested voting methods we used last year like mandatory mail-out voting, it requires statements to use absentee ballot drop boxes, it mandates ballot harvesting, a practice that is so susceptible to fraud that an entire house of representatives election was invalidated two years ago because of it. it requires your tax dollars to go to campaigns with whom you disagree. brian: but, senator, can it pass on a simple majority in the senate? i mean, some are saying this is a way around the filibuster, that the 50 votes with the vice president could pass this. >> no, absolutely not, brian. and i'm not sure it can pass with 50 votes either. some democrats, i think, would balk at a bill that also regulates political speech. in the 60 days before an election, it would make a federal crime spreading so-called disinformation. who do you think is going to be responsible -- a new york times fact checker or facebook or twitter? the same people who said the accurate story about hunter biden's laptop was false and had to be suppressed online? this is a frontal assault on the first amendment and your rights to political speech. ainsley: and if someone gives money to aoc, let's say they give her or $200 in campaign funds, then she'll get from the federal government $1200? it's a 6 to 1 ratio, right? >> yeah. your tax dollars will be going to fund the campaigns of the politicians with whom you vehemently disagree. we have raised plenty of money, politicians don't need your tax dollars to fund and spread their message. brian: i just think this is unconstitutional. states have rights to run elections, in some cases agonizingly so, the way they want. >> yeah, brian, that's right. the founding fathers put the responsibility for the elections primarily with the states. now, congress has some power, but it doesn't have the kind of sweeping power that this bill serves to essentially federalize all election practices while also suppressing political speech at the height of a political campaign. steve: but, as you said, can't really pass the senate, so it's not going to go anywhere if. brian: hope not. steve: senator, thank you very much for joining us live. >> thank you all. have a good day. good week. ainsley: yeah. gone that be a good one. jillian: good morning. let's begin with a fox news alert. two new york police officers are shot during a standoff overnight. the suspected gunman's roommate called 911 while hiding in a closet. one officer was saved by his bulletproof vest. both are expected to be okay. the suspect is in custody. take a look at this. it was an all-out brawl breaking out at a bath and body works. employees seen tackling a customer to the ground after she allegedly shoved one of them. the fight started over someone cutting in line. two women are facing charges. wow. okay, former president trump spotted on his first trip back to new york city since leaving office. the reason for his trip is unclear, but he is expected to be in the city until tomorrow. the new york native, trump changeed his primary residence to florida 2019. expert driver kyle larson celebrates his first win since being suspended. >> wins las vegas. >> hell yeah, guys! >> larson taking the checker flag in las vegas, he was fired from his team last april after using a racial slur during an online event. bubba wallace, nascar's only full-time back driver, was among the fest to congratulate larson. i will send it back to you. ainsley: coming up next, ohio's lieutenant governor taking on the cleveland teachers union after they were prioritized for vaccines and then voted against returning to school. he is live with his message next. before discovering nexium 24hr to treat her frequent heartburn, marie could only imagine enjoying freshly squeezed orange juice. now no fruit is forbidden. nexium 24hr stops acid before it starts for all-day, all-night protection. can you imagine 24 hours without heartburn?

>> look, it's time to go back and serve these children. they need you. the schools across the state, 99% of all the schools in the ohio are open for in-person education today. but the cleveland school district via their teachers union is the last holdout. these kids need you, it's time to go back to work. brian: christina, how harold has it been on you?

>> yep. [laughter] brian: it's unbelievable. you thought there was light at the end of the tunnel. march 1st, they got vaccinated. lieutenant governor, can you take legal action against them? >> well, we can't take legal action against them. this is a local decision. but it's a violation of the agreement that we had. i mean, we prioritized teachers and educators across the state above other people who were more likely to get sick from the krone coronavirus and die because we wanted school districts to be open by march the 1st. it was a deal. we wrote it express sitly in the document -- explicitly in the document that we had the districts sign. they signed the document, they went and got the advantage seens and now they're -- vaccines and now they're not doing in-person education. these students, we know that learning and education are falling behind for students who are not in in-person educational settings. need to get them caught up. with the vaccine and all the students in the schools are going to be masked as well. this is a very safe environment. brian: of course. >> the kids -- brian: yeah. unless the 99% of the other districts have it wrong. of course you're right. here's what the union tries to explain if: the members are eager to come back to school and serve their classrooms in person, we need proven safeguards like personal protect i have equipment, ventilation, but the district has failed to address our concerns and provide documentation that we have requested. before i get the lieutenant governor to weigh in, christina, is that a good enough explanation? do you feel as though if your kids went back to school, they wouldn't be safe? >> we got a phone call from eric gordon saying all that stuff was in place, so there's fightingst -- inside between the teachers, and we're being told two different things. brian: lieutenant governor, they say you haven't done enough separating the kids, making the gym, classroom worthy, separating the lockers. i don't know, what do you say to this? >> look, vaccines have been given, masks are available, those are the two essential things to reopening a school. all of those other things are not vital. but by the way, i've been reassured they still do exist. so if there's a problem with a particular school, then fix that problem, but don't shut down a hundred schools for 30,000 students over one or two issues that may exist. brian: right. >> it's -- these things have been addressed. we've done studies. the cdc says it's okay to two back, we know from our own research in ohio that if you're wearing masks even if you're not 6 feet apart, it's still very safe. the virus isn't spreading. the bottom line is we've got to go back. it's safe. you made a deal, keep your end of the deal. brian: yeah. and for moms and parents like christina with four kids at home, keep that in mind. i think a lot of teachers would do it tomorrow if the union wasn't standing in their way. lieutenant governor, christina, thank you so much. >> thank you. brian: all right. hang in there. meanwhile, straight ahead, biden's holding out on a solo press conference longer than the last century of prime ministers. ben.com flesh has noticed -- ben domenech has noticed. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ (quiet piano music) ♪ ♪ comfort in the extreme. the lincoln family of luxury suvs. new projects means new project managers. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do. the moment you sponsor a job on indeed you get a short list of quality candidates from our resume database. claim your seventy five dollar credit, when you post your first job at indeed.com/home. it's an important time to save. with priceline, you can get up to 60% off amazing hotels. and when you get a big deal... you feel like a big deal. ♪♪ priceline. every trip is a big deal. this isn't just freight. these aren't just shipments. they're promises. big promises. small promises. cuddly shaped promises. each with a time and a place they've been promised to be. and the people of old dominion never turn away a promise. or over promise. or make an empty promise. we keep them. a promise is everything to old dominion, because it means everything to you. want to brain better?

let's ask the federalist publisher ben domenech. hey, ben. >> good morning. ainsley: so why do you think he has not had one yet? >> well, look, i mean, you know, who hasn't wanted to get together with a group of their closest friends over the course of this pandemic? that's what joe biden probably wants to be able to do when it comes to his supporters in the media. have a, you know, get together the, have a fun conversation. the fact that he's not though e is really concerning because it seems to me that that is a case that the people closest to him, the handlers around him in the white house, don't really think this is something that he ought to do. what are the reasons for that? i mean, to me, if the reason is that they're concerned about anything that we would see him answer, his ability to follow the questions that he's being asked, that really rah raises at lot of questions about, you know, the state of joe biden and whether he's someone who is, you know, really in charge of all of these situations. the question that i think is on the mind of a lot of americans, not just those who are on the right. and so i hope, frankly, that he is able to come out and do a press conference soon just so that we can see the state that he's in and the ability that he has to follow these questions, give good answers and do the same kind of thing that we have expected from presidents for decades. ainsley: if this were a republican and he or she did not have a press conference at this point in office, what would be the reaction on the other networks? >> i think the reaction would be obvious which is that they would be questioning his capabilities, his or her capabilities as commander in chief, they'd be talking about it on a daily basis, they'd probably have a little ticker running in the bottom of the corner on how long it's been since the last presidential press conference. and i think that that's, you know, just an indication of the way that the media has treated joe biden, with kid gloves, throughout this campaign. keep in the mind the kind of softball questions he got when he had campaign press conferences. i'm sure he'd get the simple types of things from the white house press corps today. ainsley: on another network, you had some voters, democrats and progressives, and they were complaining, they want their stimulus checks. they're questioning why is he dropping bombs on syria before the stimulus checks. listen to this. >> they're putting that stimulus check on the back burner, they're putting the minimum wage hike on the back burner, and they're dropping bombs in syria right now, and those bombs are kind of expensive. ainsley: does he have a point? >> of course he has a point, but, you know, one of the things that we see happen on the left side of the aisle time and again is they'll run on issues like the minimum wage, you know, and they'll make a big thing about it, but ultimately when they have the ability to purpose it through the -- push it through, a number of democrats voted against it. over and over again you see them promising progressives certain things, and when they get into office, their normal approach looks a lot like this type of early days of the biden administration where they're happy to engage in all manner of unpopular activity such as the kind of things that we see going on in the middle east, but they're also happy to just i say, oh, well, we can't do this. even though we have the power to do it, we promised you that we would do it, but now that we have the ability to do it, we're not going to prioritize that. that's something that i think on the left they're getting very used to in terms of expectation from this democratic party which just doesn't have the priorities of working americans in mind. ainsley: thank you so much, ben. good to have you on. >> great to be with you. ainsley: a defiant governor cuomo double town on his refusal to resign even as new york's top lawmakers say it is time. janice dean's going to respond next. when you have a two-inch lift. when you have goodyear duratrac tires. when you have rancho shocks and an integrated dual exhaust. when you have all that, the last thing you'll need... is a road. the chevy silverado trail boss. ready to off-road, right from the factory. when i noticed my sister moving differently, i didn't know what was happening. she said it was like someone else was controlling her mouth. her doctor said she has tardive dyskinesia, which may be related to important medications she takes for her depression. her ankles would also roll and her toes would stretch out. td can affect different parts of the body. it may also affect people who take medications for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. we were so relieved to learn that today, td is manageable. learn more at talkabouttd.com. i always dreamed of having kids of my own. ♪ ♪ now i'm ready for someone to call me mom. at northwestern mutual, our version of financial planning helps you live your dreams today. stressballs gummies, at northwestern mutual, with herbal ashwagandaancial help turn the stressed life into your best life stress less, live more with stressballs ♪ ♪ >> there's some legislators who suggest that i are resign because of accusations made against me. the -- e was elected by the people of the state. i wasn't elected by politicians. i'm not going to resign because of allegations. the premise of resigning because of allegations is actually anti-democratic. anybody has the ability to make an allegation in democracy, and that's great. but it's in the credibility of the allegation. there is no way i resign. let's do the attorney general investigation, let's get the findings and then we'll go from there. brian: i guess the majority leader in the senate doesn't have any credibility. a defiant governor cuomo as nearly 50 state lawmakers demand he leave office. steve: janice dean lost both of her in-laws, michael and dee, in this past year in new york nursing home, and she joins us now. good morning to you. >> good morning. steve: so the governor made it very clear even though there's a drum beat from a number of top depp corrals in new york -- democrats in new york to resign, look, i'm not elected by the politicians, i'm elected by the people. and he's probably looking at the polls that say a plurality of people say that he should and serve out his term, should not be impeached or leave office, resign, but he should not run again. >> yeah. i don't think he will resign. that's not what he is all about. ing he'll never resign even though he's told other lawmakers and politicians to resign for much less. and i guess it's the sexual harassment charges are salacious and all of the national news channels that are now on the bandwagon of me too, but i fear that we're losing sight of the nursing home issue where we lost over 15,000 elderly partly because of his mandate. one year ago, almost one year ago he issued that deadly mandate that put infected patients into nursing homes for 46 days, and he covered up those numbers. so i want lawmakers to start the impeachment process. ainsley: janice, a what does this investigation look like? if when will we know if he's innocent or guilty? or, i guess, guilty. innocent til proven guilty. >> for which one? if harassment or the nursing home? ainsley: do you know about both? >> that's a good question. the a.g., i believe, is investigating the harassment charges which, you know, should be investigated. no woman should have to be put through that. and, you know, it's not about sex, it's about power. and, you know, this guy is power hung arely. he wants to make -- hungry. he wants to make people feel small. he was calling lawmakers last night telling them not to, you know, issue their thoughts about the possible resignation. he likes to call them and harass them, so i'm not surprised that he does this to young women. there is a federal investigation, there is an fbi investigation. i would like lawmakers today to say we are issuing subpoenas for independent, bipartisan investigation into the nursing home deaths. we deserve that. it's been a year. and we deserve those answers. and i think it's criminal. i think he should go to jail. brian: to impeach him in the assembly, you need a majority of 76 of the 150 members. the current composition is 106 democrats and 43 republicans, mostly it's democrats calling for him to resign including the most powerful, the majority leader, andrea stuart cousins. this thing could really gain momentum, and i think that's what he fears, janice. >> well, i think it is happening. you know, i think that the me too accusations are what the media is focusing in on, and i think lawmakers are using that as a scapegoat as well. look, whatever it is, he is not able to be a governor right now. he has too many scandals around him. i think it would be actually in his best interests to resign, but he won't. so that's why there should be an impeachment process. and i do hope that people remember the 15,000 seniors that are dead in new york state and the cover-up that we know about as well. steve: and the stonewall. the story goes on and on. janice, thank you very much. we know it's painful every time you talk about it, you feel so strongly. thank you for sharing your opinion. >> you're welcome. steve: meanwhile, another big story, the royal bombshells are making waves across the bold. carley shimkus joins us live to recount the big show last night with oprah, harry and meghan. >> reporter: yeah, that's right, good morning. couple's sit-down filled with stunning allegations. markel says at first she was welcomed into the family but things quickly started to up ralph after their fairy tale -- unravel after their fairy tale wedding, accusing the firm of protecting other members of the family but not her. >> were you silent or were you silenced? >> the latter. very clear directive from the moment the world knew harry and i were dating to always say no comment. >> reporter: markel is also accusing the royal family of racism saying her son archie was denied a title, security detail, and there were even discussions about his skin tone. but the couple's sympathetic story marred by more damaging headlines. last week buckingham a palace launched an investigation into claims markel bully ared staffers -- bullied staffers, allegations she says are not true. and just hours before the sit-down in america, the queen ironically stressed the importance of unity across the pond. >> and i hope we shall maintain this new sense of closeness and community. looking forward, relationships with others across the commonwealth will remain important. >> reporter: harry says repairing his relationship with his father is one of his top priorities. he is currently giving his brother space. so, steve the, ainsley, brian, we are currently looking at a family very much divided. steve: no kidding. and harry's not talking to anybody other than meghan. >> reporter: yeah. well, actually, he did say that his father started taking his phone calls again, but they have to work through a whole lot of stuff. he says he loves his brother a whole lot but, like i said, there's a bit of a distance and space there. he hopes that time will heal those difficult wounds. brian: yeah, and, you know, worst come to worst, the pandemic and how both countries have been affected. ainsley: do you think the queen will do an interview now?

it is a dereliction of all loyalty to his country. brian: pierce here is a couple of clips for people that didn't watch and for people in the uk watching who will see it tonight , watch. >> when we were in canada i had three conversations with my grandmother and two conversation s with my father, and before he stopped taking my calls and then said, can you put this all in writing what your plan is? >> why did he stop taking your calls? >> by that point i took matters into my own hands it was like i needed to do this for my family. this is not a surprise to anybody. it's really sad that its got to this point but i've got to do something. for my mental health and my wife and i could see where this was headed. brian: so he sees his wife struggling, pierce, so he wants to pull her out of there and his dad was not cooperative. what do you see in that? >> absolutely shame less. i mean, this is the same prince charles that bankrolled these two for the last five years to the tune of millions of dollars, and literally paid for everything, and this is how they treat him? this is the person they called to walk her down the aisle at the wedding when megan's father had a heart attack and couldn't get there, she then disowns her father, that wasn't even raised last night in this interview. nothing about her family was raised. steve: no. >> the focus was trashing harry 's family, his father, his brother, putting things under the bus about some big argument they had where katie: reduced megan to tears and i've heard the complete opposite of that story and so it went on for two hours and again i just asked the question about prince harry. this is a guy whose currently in line to the throne, number six or seven to be the next king of england. what does he think he's doing trashing the monarchy and allowing his wife to trash the monarchy and depict them as a bunch of racist bullies? it is i've got to say i find it one of the most shocking things i've watched in a long time. steve: pierce, i've been following your twitter this morning and i see that you are getting a lot of criticism from what you said on your television show and what you've posted so far. you did tweet that anyone who criticizes megan is automatically deemed a racist bully. you also, in the last 20 minutes or so, have said that one of the things she said last night on television, where she and harry were married three days earlier by the archbishop is untrue. >> yeah, well it's the first lie is being exposed and there will be a lot more i can tell you because from my knowledge of the royal family which is pretty good, already they are absolutely steaming mad, led by prince william and prince charles who feel completely betrayed but she claims casually , meghan markle, like she did throughout this interview they got married three days before the actual wedding where 30 million was spent on that wedding and that was all a sham. they got married three days before in their backyard with the archbishop officiating and this turns out to be completely untrue. they actually got legally married on the day we all saw them get married. it's just part of meghan markle 's fantastic dream world that she lives in, that she would recreate something that just didn't happen. there will be a lot more of that to come out, i'm sure, because honestly, it is hard to under state the simmering rage that is currently being felt inside the halls of buckingham palace and kensington palace. they see this is a complete, utter betrayal. ainsley:piers here is another clip from the interview. we'll get your reaction on the other side. >> what i was seeing was history repeating itself but perhaps definitely far more dangerous because then you add race in and you add social media in and what i'm talking about is my mother. >> also, concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he's born. >> you were too brown, that that be a problem? >> that's the assumption you're making i think that feels like a pretty safe one. ainsley: piers, what's your reaction? >> okay well who said that? let's have a name rather than allowing everyone to think it could be anyone in the palace, it could be the queen, prince phillip, it could be charles, camilla, any of them. let's have a name. if somebody did say this in a racist derogatory way then that would clearly be completely unacceptable and outrageous but i wonder, who is that person? what was that conversation? what was the context they said because until we know the answers to all these questions, we have a whole family being labeled as basically racist. steve: yeah. brian: piers, she said harry told her, so she didn't even hear it directly. >> yeah, she said several conversations and harry said it was one conversation and they soon got together and now i don't know what that conversation was or who it was with, but is it beyond the realm s of fantasy that one of the older members of the royal family are hearing that harry was with this girl from a mixed race background herself may have asked completely innocently, oh, that's interesting, so the father's white, mom's black what would that mean for any children you have, what color might they be? it may be as simple as innocent or that and maybe said in a derogatory way and in which case i want to know who said that, which member of the royal family is it one of our future monarchs who used such a racist slur, but the fact that harry said i will never tell you, i'm sorry that's just cowardly. you can't use the race button in the way he's done here and smear all of them at once and not actually come clean and say well this is who said it. steve: well, oprah did follow-up and ask megan for a name, but she did not provide one, but i don't remember her asking harry and he could have answered that. you make an observation. i know you made an observation. they have trashed the royal family which will not publicly hit back. i mean, that's historical, but after this , aren't they going to have to say something? >> i would, if i were them. i think there's some seriously things that are being said and already what i'm feeling i can see it on social media, the hatred that is now building against the royal family based on these completely wild unsubstantiated stories that megan and harry put out there and are particularly damaging is this claim that archie was prevented from being made a prince because of his skin color because the only person that will make that decision is the queen, whose 94 years old, being on the throne for six decades, doesn't have a racist bone in her body is the queen of the commonwealth with millions of people who are black skin, brown skin, certainly many non- whites in the commonwealth and the idea is that the queen is somehow a racist presiding over all of this i just find despicable and that is even being suggested. ainsley: piers we watch it and to you it's clearly very personal because you live there and this is the monarchy that you live under but i couldn't help but think last night when i was watching it, harry is giving up everything. everything, a new country -- steve: he's got 100 million bucks. ainsley: yeah, from netflix but he's giving up his family. i mean, eventually do you think he's going to regret that? >> i think he must be, surely, how can he not regret this? i know princess diana will be wherever she's watching this from because i knew her well. she be utterly heartbroken william and harry no longer talk to each other and they don't. i know that for a fact. william is absolutely in incande scent with rage about this. for whatever reason he's decided to burn all his bridges with his family but where is the coincidence here. look at meghan markle and her family. there was only one member of her family at the wedding and she had oprah winfrey who she met once and the clooneys sitting where her family members should be sitting. she burned all her bridges with her family and now she's colluded with harry to burn all his bridges with his family and i just think it's incredibly sad and also, makes me very angry. i live a mile from kensington palace and i can tell you, you can almost feel the simmering rage burning down from that palace to where i'm sitting now. brian: and you guys are going to actually see this tonight, piers just a broad swipe question because you have a good sense of american culture and obviously in the uk now. there was a sense in france that they say the america's cancel culture and they want to stop it at the border. they are really concerned about what's happening here. is the uk the same way? are they seeing taking down of statues and everything being pulled down and cartoons being yanked off and the children's books being changed? are you guys worried about that too? >> i am. i can tell you, i think it's becoming a rising problem in this country as well. i think it's completely out of control and of course, at the root of this woke ill-liberalism is this extraordinary reality where they aren't liberals at all. they are actually only just want to have what they like in the world, and we're prepared to see people having different views and i say that as someone more liberal myself than not but this cancel culture, this eradication of history, this rewriting of everything, this inability to allow or tolerate anything that you don't believe yourself, is the liberalism and it's the enemy of democracy, and its got to stop. you know, we got universities now which won't have any speaker s, who even deviate one inch to the right. now i'm not particularly, you know, one way or another. i'm an apolitical journalist but i know you only learn when you engage people in democratic debate. that is the democracy. brian: is it your belief that it started here? >> yes, it did start in america i saw it creeping around the university campuses, and i remember getting really concerned when people like bill mahwr for god's sake even he was being platformed by universities, and i remember looking at that going wow, bill maher isn't allowed to speak at a university because he's not liberal enough? and that said to me that america was going for a really weird phase with its liberalism which was turning into a more fascist form of ill-liberalism and he's come over the pond now to the uk and i know the french will be very concerned about it because they believe in their history all good, bad and ugly. here we've had to cope with the liberals canceling people like lord nelson one of our finest-ever naval heros, winston churchill had to have his statue boarded up in parliament square in case it was attacked. brian: unbelievable. >> you know, nelson mandella is in parliament square and had to be boarded up too because none of them are good enough. it is ridiculous. steve: and i read a couple of weeks ago some were considering canceling shakespeare which, you know, that's very close to home there, but whoever makes it through this wave, who knows whose going to come after them in five years or five minutes. >> we'll be having this conversation again in five years time is severely limited because we'll all get canceled. the truth is everyone will be canceled if we don't stand up to this. brian: absolutely. >> and i employee more corporate america and corporate britain, the people who are bow ing to this to just stop it. don't be so ashamed of your history. good, bad, and ugly it's what made our countries great. countries, the uk, usa, two of the greatest countries in the world. and the idea that we have to look back on everything, to a shameful lens, and feel appalled by everything that's happened before us and we're living in some perfect eutopia, let's just get real. we are an imperfect country both the uk and the u.s. but we are great countries and we will only remain great if we honor the cornercell phone of democracy, which is freedom of speech. ainsley: piers thank you so much for joining us. >> my pleasure. ainsley: have a good one. brian: you left too soon, we need you back here. >> do you know what? i'm pretty fired up today. i may have to just swim across the pond. brian: [laughter] piers morgan, thank you, appreciate it. >> take care. ainsley: griff jenkins joins us live down in mexico covering the border the migrant crisis. am i allowed to call it a crisis griff: well i think by every account it's a crisis, ainsley, brian and steve, good morning. remember president obama's dhs secretary jeh johnson said anyone over 1,000 a day was a crisis. they are seeing over 4,000 in some cases, they've seen in just this rio grande valley sector about 10 8,000 so far in fiscal year 2021 already, we're only three months in. let me show you though this is the rio grande river the u.s. mexico border here brownsville is on that side. this is the camp wherefore over two years, upwards of 1,000 migrants seeking asylum were being kept here and across the river you with see the border patrol that came to check us out i think we've drawn some attention here but the conditions in here were unbelievably inhumane and we talked to one of the migrants who was in there for a little while, he was not allowed to cross. his name is mario and here is what he had to say about the new administration. listen. >> the president of the united states biden held the people because it's necessary. we don't have nowhere to stay, nothing here. griff: and here is what's different about recent crisis in 2014 and 2019, ainsley, and that is that there was no covid. we are now in a pandemic. we talked about these conditions and you can just see there's no one in there. everyone that was in this camp about 800 of them have been let into the u.s. , except for a few people like mario but you can see the trash littering here. there's no one here except for some of the mexican immigration officials and the covid fear is why texas governor greg abbott is so upset because dhs, cbp do not test the migrants that's left to the local officials and ngo's but the white house press secretary jen psaki pushing back against governor about lot. listen. >> the governor has complained about testing at the border. fema, dhs has worked with local authorities, has worked with local ngo's to come up with a plan that would cover 100% of testing costs for migrants who cross the border, and he has declined that funding. griff: but again, just look down at what was left behind in the camp that just used to be the mexican officials here say they are a little concerned that because of the welcoming sign, perhaps from the new administration, that we could have more migrants coming and they would have to open up more camps just like this one. meanwhile, there are some other shelters here where migrants have arrived. we're going to go find out what's happening at those and what their plans are. most here, that we've seen in the streets in the last 24 hours , say that if they can't get across through asylum, they will cross illegally. brian, ainsley, steve? steve: griff jenkins live in mat amoras, mexico, thank you very much. 8:22 in the east, news time with jillian. jillian: good morning let's begin with this. another new york governor cover up, a question as a whistleblower warns dozens of bolts are busted on the mario m. cuomo bridge. the times union examining the allegations that the company that constructed the bridge concealed structural issues. the constructor s asked a judge to permanently seal the case. experts say broken bolts can ultimate are in a catastrophic collapse, we'll continue to follow tax >> and today jury selection begins for the trial of the former minneapolis police officer charged with george floyd's death and derek shovin is charged with second degree murder and manslaughter and video shows him on floyd's neck for at least nine minutes and thousands of protesters held a silent march throughout the city calling for justice. >> president biden marks the anniversary of bloody sunday by signing a sweeping executive order on voting rights. he is now calling on congress to pass hr-1. >> this is a landmark piece of legislation that is urgently needed to protect the right to vote and the integrity of our elections and to repair and strengthen our democracy. i hope the senate does its work so i can sign it into law. >> republicans say this is a huge democratic power grab, to use their power from the states and they intend to block it. >> rush limbaugh's death certificate lists his occupation as the greatest radio host of all-time. tmz obtained a copy of the document that was likely added by his wife who provided the information with the palm beach county's medical examiner and he died after battling lung cancer and he was 70 years old. sending it back to you. steve: and accurate. ainsley: yeah. brian: big special on him this week. ainsley: coming up the air force is celebrating international women's day this morning, and we're going to talk to a commander of one of the all- female alert teams dispatching to the missile field that's coming up, next. the worst genocide in human history also destroyed the lives of thousands of jewish survivors still suffering today. god calls on people who believe in him to act on his word.

>> all right >> we could not be more appreciative we are here for you to support you. >> good, yup. >> [applause] brian: governor it seems like you are really enjoying these events. >> i like the people. brian: you want to hear what they have to say. >> absolutely and especially with the restaurants they are thriving here. they aren't even allowed to operate normally in most other states so i think the folks here really really appreciate the way florida's approached it. brian: and you were one of the last states to shutdown. >> i'm going to be doing an executive order today directing all floridians to limit movement. brian: you're also one of the first to open up. >> there is a light at the end of the tunnel. this new phase will start on monday, may 4. brian: it's like look, these lockdowns don't work. we got to get people back to work. >> and you get to the white house and meet with the president trump, and you come out and you were greeted by a hostileostile press. >> everyone in the media was saying florida be like new york or italy and that has not happened. and here we are, almost a year later, and new york has almost twice the per capita covid mortality than florida. by keeping everything open, we are so much better off as a result of that. brian: but essentially president biden said that's neanderthal thinking. >> [laughter] well look these guys are invest ed in lockdowns i get that the facts don't support it. look it's if the lockdowns work then florida be way worse than new york in these states. brian: where do we go now? >> now we'll go to polk county and do our first event with the new johnson & johnson vaccine and doing it with law enforcement personnel. >> you can see we've got a group of folks here today and they've been streaming in all day and we're going to do this again tomorrow as well. >> so we think johnson & johnson is going to be great for people in the workforce, for the cops, the sheriff's deputies, fire, teachers, those folks, so we're focusing on these on the 50 and up in those communities. >> the community together can put this pandemic down by putting shots in arms. our governor has been fantastic during a very difficult, very trying time. he didn't shut florida down. kids are in school. our crime rates at a 49-year low that's no accident. it doesn't just happen. it happens because of great leadership and that's what we have with governor desantis. >> [applause] brian: it's hard to be around you, and not see and hear the buzz about you, and then you see the way you are received at cpac. the buzz is that if donald trump doesn't run, that governor desantis is going to try to be president desantis. >> we're in 2021 we'll have a re-election in 2022 so that's what i'm focused on. brian: mike pompeo said the other night yeah i'm considering it so would you say that ron desantis would say that >> i wouldn't say that it's so premature to even have the discussion. brian: the president who you guys are friends with if he says to you what do you think i should do, ron what would you tell him? >> i'd tell him honestly just take care of yourself for a while and as we get into past 2022 make your decision at that time. brian: lastly just to review just where you've come from, this middle class kid from the middle of florida now find yourself governor. did you predict this? >> no. i think that i've been blessed with a strong work ethic and i think that's one of the reasons why we've been able to be successful. brian: governor thanks for the day, your average workday but i know you'll go back to the office and keep working. >> absolutely. steve: that was great. you know, brian i love the fact that in that report, you included how quickly they closed things down but how quickly they reopened, and when he was with the president in the oval room, and he talked about the media reaction where you guys said it was going to be as bad as new york and italy and it's not. brian: yeah it isn't, and look, there was some high numbers but they were high numbers for the whole country and the question is what were you doing along the way. yeah there was ppp loans and things to sustain people and they have not gotten tourism back, we know why. they have not gotten the cruise ship back, we know why. and they can't do anything about that but what they have is people there, right now, able to , i don't know, host cpac, host the super bowl, and it was up to the leagues to decide how much, but they will bring in wrestlemania back and they are worried about spring break? yeah a little bit, they are going to be there but it's not retribution. there's guys, be responsible for how you handle things and also special thanks to meredith be a truss to have the governor put that time aside is great, and nikki castillo had to edit through the night for this , i gave her a ton of footage literally shot for six hours. ainsley: that's awesome. did he make any comments about the influx of people of new yorkers moving down there? >> it's non-stop and i said too when new yorkers move down a lot of them might change the state. like what's happening in texas. there's double-digit bringing their politics and he says that's how they are found, more and more people we've talked to feel like they've hit nirvana and don't want to bring what they left with them. by the way governor cuomo said yesterday, we're going to raise taxes again. he's not talking about doing that. i'll bring up something else. big tech. he's taking on big tech. you're not going to deplatform politicians or anybody else. you're going to get fined every single day that you do it and law and order, you can protest but don't riot. you immediately will be arrested so there's almost no riots and they are bracing because we all know with what's happening in minneapolis beginning this week. steve: well do you know what, brian i heard a story today and we can all appreciate it on how people over 65 here in new york and connecticut have had trouble finding the shot. they literally will get on the phone first thing in the morning and call dozens of pharmacies trying to be lucky that day, but down there, we saw the governor desantis with the j & j single shot and then you've got a very organized effort with publix, the big grocery store chain down there, and they have been very effective in making sure everybody over 65 is vaccinated. brian: well the problem is is people are showing up and the lines are five hours long, in many cases, and if you were 80 you can't wait for five hours , unless you have a golfing chair with you, which is a quick chair that sits down and sits up it's just not feasible or plausible. steve: so they are doing it well down there. brian: so far. not perfect but their mistakes are hustle mistakes. ainsley: are you an fsu fan now brian: i'll have to go to campus but very nice town. there are no direct flights. steve: that was a great report, brian. brian: thanks. ainsley: let's hand it over to janice with the forecast. hey, j. d. >> janice: good morning, it is beautiful in florida this morning and you know what? across the country we actually have a warmup for a lot of folks across the midwest and the plain states, so there your current temperatures right now 41 in memphis, 45 in chicago, 34 in minneapolis, not too bad actually i'm sure they will take it, satellite radar imagery we do have some rain moving in along the coast and then some snow so the west is the real active part of the country for the next couple of days, where we're going to get up to a foot or more of snow, especially in the sierra of california, and then across the rockies so there's your forecast today, we'll enjoy this beautiful warmup for kansas city 71, 74 in houston, 63 in chicago, 73 in miami and then we'll watch the system move into the west, we had several on the way, and look at that. i mean your forecast highs looking good for the central u.s. , back towards the southwest and towards florida and i believe we have eight more days, no, 12 more days until the first day of spring. we are counting them down here on the fox news weather center. back to you, steve, ainsley and brian. ainsley: thank you. we have st. patrick's day, the 17th and the 21st is the first day of spring. steve: moving on. jillian: good morning, that's right let's begin with this the organizers of the campaign to recall california governor gavin newsom collecting 1.95 million signatures with the deadline just days away the announcement coming on sunday where there was a massive rally near the state capitol in sacramento and the campaign exceeding threshold of 1.5 million signatures as the st. patrick's day deadline nears. >> former vice president mike pence will give his first speech since leaving office next month. ap reporting pence will be a keynote at a dinner in south carolina. hosted by a christian non-profit group he is expected to speak on conservative values and to the the accomplishments of the trump adminitration. >> west virginia senator joe manchin has his mind made up on supreme court the politicoing the filibuster but is expressing an openness to making it more painful to use. >> we can fix everything if we just talk to each other there's no need for us to go to reconciliation until the other process has failed. >> morning leader chuck schumer is pushing to pass election reform with a simple majority. republicans say this is a huge democratic power grab to use power from the states and they intend to block it. that is a look at your headlines , back to you. steve: jillian, thank you. coming up the mayor of flavor town is working to bring his real deal flavors straight to your doorstep all across the country. guy fieri is going to join us live with his son, hunter, there they are in their kitchen coming up next. brian: right after they're done we'll check in with bill hemmer and dana perino to see if they prepared anything. a lot of times they get out there and they just wing it. >> were you listening?
