Todd Lauren Blanchard live for us as dr. Fauci doubles down on claims that attacking him is attacking science. Lauren. Reporter the national Security Advisor Jake sullivan said President Biden will not threaten nor give ultimatums, instead will rely on intelligence and diplomatic pressure to get to the bottom of how the pandemic began.

Reporter there is a bipartisan push on Capitol Hill to establish a commission to look into the origins of covid19. But some republicans in the house say the administration and democratic leaders are being weak with china. I wish we in congress would investigate the origin of covid19. Pelosi wont do it.

He says his opinions have evolved as they got more of data on the coronavirus. Quote, thats the reason why i say people who then criticize me about that are actually criticizing science.

The first time in generations communities are turning away from the quote, unquote, tough on crime ideas, because theyre finally coming to realize that the last four decades have not made us safer. Todd Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascone touting his controversial reform policies as he launches an effort to counter the Recall Charge against him. Jillian our next guest is not backing down. She joins us now with more. Good morning to you. Lets pull up this quote here from gascone and this reads, quote, we need to be very clear about what this Recall Attempt is. Its nothing short of a hyper partisan effort of to overturn another free and fair election in this country. Are you a hyper partisan . Is this a hyper partisan effort . Are you backed by major trump donors . Last time we checked, youre not even a registered republican, is that right . Thats right. Thats far from the truth. This is not a partisan issue at all. This is an effort that weve done because weve decided something thats right and whats wrong. This is far from a political effort. I am a democrat as you machinessed and i mentioned and i am i do not agree with his directives. So for him to say that, i think he is dismissing us victims and not really speaking the truth at this point. Todd the Recall Effort has been largely bipartisan thus far, right . Yes, it has. Yes, it has. Its been a part of us victims coming forward and driving this effort right now. Todd there was something that he mentioned in that Sound Bite i wanted to get your thoughts on. It was that oh, were being tough on crime no more. Do your family and friends want Law Enforcement to be tough on crime or not tough on crime as George Gascone seemed to be cheerleading there in that Sound Bite. Tough on crime is what we want. I have not spoken to one victim that has stated that they want their loved Ones Murderer out. Okay. Or facing less sentencing. It doesnt make any sense. We all want max sentencing. Thats not what were getting right now. Were getting people being in My Sons case, given only 20 years for murdering My Son, brutally torturing him. Jillian youve pretty much ben at the forefront of this recall campaign. Your son died a horrible, vicious, brutal death had. Do you feel like the approach of George Gascone right now is personal towards you . Yes, i do. I think that if hes going to turn his face on his victims, its personal. My Sons Life mattered. For him to turn his back on us, thats a slap on the face, like he disgusts me. Thats not this Isnt Justice. This Isnt Justice for My Son or any other victim thats out there right now. Todd to followup on jillians question, why, why do you think he is singling you out . Is it just because youre going after him or is there something deeper . You know, it could be that. I dont know. I would hate to think that thats exactly it. But it may be just that. Ive been very outspoken since the day he was elected into office which i believe he was falsely elected on false pretenses. Why i say that is, he didnt his campaign was reform but he never stated what type of reform he was going to do. I bet you if anybody knew that he was about to release murderers, rapist, child molesters, child abuser, he would not be in his office right now. Jillian tell me where you are with the Recall Effort, how many signatures do you have, do you need . We havent got the exact signatures yet but we do need 590,000 signatures. We are asking for people to log onto recallgeorgegascone. Com and sign the petition. If youre able to volunteer, please volunteer. If youre able to donate so we can continue with the many campaign, please do so as well, all on that website.

Cheryl you look at the numbers, maybe not all kids. Thats the big problem here. So disneyland, disney world, are being accused of pricing out their loyal customers including kids on Social Media.

Theres a point to be made. The expected cost for family of four to disney world, just over 6,000. One daily adult ticket is 104 bucks, at disneyland, 109 at disney world. Thats just to get in for the day. Its pretty big movement on Social Media, criticizing these parks and saying come on. Jillian youre going to spend 500 on Food Or Something once you get in there. Cheryl yeah. Jillian thats an a exaggeration, but todd i understand if youre a 20yearold going to clubs, i cant afford the 300 bottle service, these are kids trying to enjoy their youth. That bummed me out. Im sad now. Cheryl im sorry. Todd thanks, casone. Im eyeore, dressed in gray. Jillian congresswoman Lisa Mcclain joins us next. Todd a middle School Student Singled Out by a teacher and you bullied for sporting a thin blue Line Flag at school. That story coming up. Jillian the Border Crisis is costing taxpayers big bucks, republicans now demanding recordses for the exact cost as the biden administration diverts billions to pay for Housing And Travel for illegal immigrants. Todd joining us now, michigan congresswoman Lisa Mcclain. Congresswoman, thank you for being here. Here is the text of that letter. Quote, we are deeply concerned that hhs diverted more than 2 Billion that congress appropriated for covid19 related Health Initiatives toward covering the cost of Housing And Transportation of unaccompanied immigrant children. Its is the biden administration policies that are encouraging children to make the dangerous trek. While you have not signed on to the letter, its more or less about availability, Youll Sign onto the letter when you return to d. C. As for the substance of it, as we try to destroy this virus, shouldnt more americans be fired up that billions of dollars of their covid Recovery Money are going to this . Well, absolutely. And this is amazing to me. I had an opportunity to actually question the secretary of Health And Human Services and i was amazed that he doesnt think theres a crisis at the border. I could not get him to admit that there was a crisis at the border. Which means theres a noncrisis at the border. Well, i asked him this. If theres a noncrisis at the border, why are we diverting 2 Billion from our stockpiles and covid Relief Fund which last i checked was a crisis, so i was confused. Here we have a pandemic, a covid crisis, and were diverting 2 Billion of funds for that to a noncrisis at the border. He couldnt explain that to me. Jillian its going to be interesting to see if this letter does prompt any answers. Ill be curious to hear that for sure. In the meantime, there are a couple of different things going on at the border. Have you the surge of migrants there. You have unaccompanied children. Weve all seen the video and images of children by themselves in the middle of the night, crying, which is absolutely devastating and then have you the issue of drugs crossing the border, and nearly 8,000 pounds of fentanyl were seized at the border this year. You take a look at the numbers, in 2021 more than 7400 pounds, that is in the yeartodate. As you can see, just a few years ago in 2018 it was 2200. I mean, there are multiple issues going on at the border. Ive spoken to you when i was down in d. C. , you talked about, look, if you think this is just an issue at the border, you are mistaken. Once the drugs get across the border, theyre infiltrated in communities across the country, right . Its coming to a town near you. The fentanyl and the drugs that are crossing the border are up over 300 . And that is coming to a town near you. And again, i think what the american people want is just a little bit of a true consistency and transparency. Lets just admit we have a problem. Were already diverting 2 Billion to fix the problem. Lets just be honest and begin to fix the issue. You Cant Fix a problem unless you come down from your Ivory Tower and actually go and see the border, number one, and begin to talk to some people in your district. Because it is a concern to a lot of families, especially in my district, the amount of drugs that are coming over. Todd congresswoman, wouldnt doing that require the administration to admit that this is a problem that they caused in the first place, beginning January 20th or 21st of this year, when Joe Biden was inaugurated and they undid so many of the trump policies that prevented what were seeing from the border from happening in the last four years . Youre spoton. And this is the problem. They cant quit trump. If trump had a cure for cancer, they would have reversed that policy because President Trump came up with the cure. At the end of the day, you should care more about the people who live in this great country than President Trump. His policies worked. They showed they worked. But you cant get over President Trump. Lets deal with the issues and lets go back to caring about american as opposed to party politics. Jillian many are still waiting for the President Or Vice president to make a trip to the southern border. We know you have, youve seen it firsthand. Congresswoman Lisa Mcclain, thank you for joining us. Thank you. Todd a suspect facing murder charges for killing an american Grad Student and former marine in russia.

The mother of the student joined us earlier to tell us why she believed it happened. The teacher aapproached him, singled him out in front of the entire class and told him to remove his flag or leave the room. He was not disrespectful to the flag in any way. He was not sitting on it. It was not touching the ground. It was completely motivated by the personal opinions of the teacher. Jillian in a statement, the school said it appears the student was punished for, quote, unintentional consequences and did not violate the dress code.

Todd carley shimkus, Fox News headlines 24 7 here with more. Carley good morning, guys. We are talking about the town of mount prospect, illinois, about 25 miles outside the city of chicago. And the controversy over the thin blue Line Patch on Police Uniform is taking Front And Center at Town Council meetings. One resident expressed her concern this way, saying im a nurse and the truth is that as a nurse when you walk into a Patients Room there is nothing on your uniform that has any political Message Or Anything else. You are here to take care of that patient regardless of their color, their sex, their age, Theres Nothing on the uniform that i would wear that would in any way alienate anybody in that bed. But two Police Officers also speaking out, defending the thin blue Line Flag, saying Theres Nothing political about it. Its not white supremacy, its not neonaziism, it does not represent hate. It is not a secret society. We are good people. We are here to serve and protect. Carley the mayor of that town says he appreciates the discourse that is happening in a respectful way and that everybodys voice needs to be heard but two very opposing opinions on what that flag means, guys. Jillian so sad. I feel bad for them. Talk about a tease. So is Herschel Walker running for a Georgia Senate seat, that is the question after he posted this cryptic video on twitter. Watch. Hes ready. Im getting ready. And we can run with the big dogs. Carley there you go. Hes revving the engine. So if he is running, it would be against Raphael Warnock in the Senate Race next year. In march, former President Trump posted a tweet encouraging him to do just that. He tweeted, wouldnt it be fantastic if the legendary Herschel Walker ran for the united States Senate in georgia. He would be unstoppable, just like he was when he played for the Georgia Bulldogs and in the nfl. He is also a great person. Run, herschel, run. Georgia governor Brian Kemp, hes going to be on Fox Friends later this morning. Im sure thats a topic of conversation that he will come up. Jillian i would not be surprised if he a announces. Todd this guy considers this a punishment. I consider this a really cool vacation. Carley so a mississippi man is going super viral on Social Media for his Fantasy Football League punishment. Lee sanderly he came in last place in the league. He was forced to spend 24 hours in the Waffle House. For every waffle he ate it would shave an hour off. He posted things like this, four waffles down, been here for an hour andahalf. I have 18 andahalf hours to go. Im already in immense discomfort, please Somebody Launch me into The Sun. Another tweet he writes, full of waffles, devoid of life. Then Miley Cyrus The Climb is playing in the Waffle House and i think its time to put down the last few waffles and go home. In the final tweet he writes The Sun is rising, its a new day and im never eating waffles again. Thats nine waffles and 15 hours in the restaurant. Shoutout to the staff for hanging with me, he said he tipped well. He said this was horrible and he doesnt recommend it to anyone. So you know what, though, guys, the moral of the story is that he may have lost his Fantasy Football League but he certainly won the heart of folks on Social Media. Todd and mele is having waffles. Jillian i am. Im going to have waffles today. Todd out with old glory, the singer, at least she was last century, who thinks its time for a new version of the american flag.

Todd can a selling July 4th celebration over covid19 concerns but allowing juneteenth and other celebrations. Jillian this as they reported zero cases last week. Kathy barnett here to react. Good to see you. Good morning, thanks for having me. Jillian of course. We want to pull up a statement from the Trustee And Celebration manager here. Quote we made the decision in march based on the information that we had at that time. There are deadlines for permits and to secure the fireworks as well as taking applications for the parade. Weared on the side of caution. If things werent better we would have been criticized for a Super Spreader event. Dont you think there is always time to make something happen if you really want to . It seems like things were very different in march and now we are in june. Dont you think they could still maybe do something . Listen, July 4th happens every single year. What, you know, a lot of the things that were hearing right now is utterly ridiculous. Whats not ridiculous is marxism. And american people need to really get our heads wrapped around the seriousness of this ideology. And at the core of marxism says racism is intractable. Meaning there is no amount of Pentance Anyone can ever do to atone for the sins of racism that happened in the past or that may currently be happening. So no matter what we capitulate over to the other side, it will never be enough. And our nation is in danger. Todd lets be clear about something here. We are not advocating against the juneteenth celebration, against the pride celebration. The more the merrier, have as many as possible. Confusion of look, get a few permits, get some fireworks, and have the party and dont blame covid. Look at these numbers, zero new case over the last seven days as of june 17th. Rate per 1,000 residents. 027 percent. Will kathy, how much longer can covid be used as an excuse . I mean, it should be stopped. Right . And now, as it relates to juneteenth, you know, obviously as black woman who grew up in the very deep south, i have the blood of slaves coarsing through my veins, i completely understand any black people wanting something that can help us to figure out what that portion of our heritage that we have lost. But i earnestly believe black people, the black community does not need specifically another holiday to celebrate what we need. Is to stop allowing democrats, the Democrat Party to give us trinkets. We need to really begin to understand our true History And History is a fact. The january 1st, 1863, proclamation. 1865 when the house passed the 1st Amendment that abolished slavery all together. There is a lot to be gained by the american people beginning to open up History Books and begin to understand our constitution. Todd interesting opinion. Okay. 30 seconds on this interesting opinion. America should get a new flag. That according to Singer Macy Gray who says the u. S. Should different stars and stripes tattered, divisive, incorrect compares it to the american flag. Macy gray had one Hit Song in the last century, 1999. What do you make of this recent Attempt Toe Stay relevant. I would have given my life for this country as a veteran. You know, and its very disconcerting. But, again, although Macy Gray is utterly ridiculous, what is very serious is this ideologybased marxism that has gripped our nation. Whether we are talking about project 1619, crt, or anything in between. The american people need to realize that this is the greatest country that has ever existed. We are not perfect, but there is no one running a close second and our nation is in trouble. Jillian Kathy Barnett, thank you for joining us and service to our country a special to the little one but they werent having it, watch . Todd let Singing Song more time fishing. Praying the crowds are more enthusiastic than in this summer. Todd all the feels and t. Was amazing. Fox friends starts right now. Have a good day. See you tomorrow.
