could be 13 again and that would change the number of palestinians exchanged to 39. all oaf that we'll likely see in the hour to come of what will develop, but it was yesterday when ten thai hostages we leased, one filipeno and 13 israelis and this was one of the first hugs, the first moments of re-juneons that we saw -- reunions we saw of a little girl, a 5-year-old and her mother, both taken hostage when they were visiting her parents. they finally were able to join their families yesterday at the hospital. once again and this was another reunion of a different family, 9-year-old ohad ran into his father's arms there in the hospital with his older brother patting him on the head before he walked over hugging his mother. they again were kidnapped on october 7. these final embraces after so many weeks of wondering what in the world was happening to them. it is these moments of joy, widespread celebration, but this is just the beginning of these hostage release withs so many other hostages still at this point in gaza. >> they're not slogans, they're real peopled and families of the hostages are from now on my new family. >> so far these are the faces of 13 ziti ragaini ellie hostages that are now safe and home. one is 34, and her daughters are 4 and that is a mother and her daughters. a mother and her daughter 45. ruth munda48, and keran munder54 and ohadmunder, 9, adi in, amo shall recollects he72 and hannah katzir76 and margalit mo cespedes 77 and hanna perry 79 and yaffa adar85. these hostages handed from gaza to the red cross and taken through the rafah crossing through egypt and cross over the border into israel and they'll be take ton an air base and they'll be checked by doctors and then eventually they'll be taken to separate medical facilities based on their physical concerns but also because of age. there's the hope we'll see the release of more children and given the ages of how many people were taken and their ages, there's a lot of kids around the age of 3 years scold one baby that's just 10 months old and a lot of safety concerns about what kind of medical condition they might be in. so far from the images and doctors say overall physically they appear in better condition than they were expecting. guys, back to you. rachel: alex, quickly, what do we know about this release coming maybe within the hour of americans being released? any expect taces at all americans will be released? >> we know there's three u.s. dual citizens and hope and expectation that would come and there's been a release of names expected to make their way back here to israel. a lot of hope but a lot of skepticism from the families as to whether or not that will really happen now especially as we're hearing that number of 14 could change to 13. of course you have to imagine for that one family that heard yesterday their loved one would be coming home to now hear that there's going to be a big concern on everyone's mind. jot other side ceasefire and any indication there were concerns that perhaps they could communicate with certain factions of islamic gee jihad and going to be honored somewhere. >> it seems at this point the ceasefire is holding but there's some new concerns of what is taking place on the northern front and siren withs the northern part of israel with the conflict of hezbollah and that's a separate conflict, wider concerns this could be a larger regional conflict and we heard sirens and unfortunate change of events considering that yesterday we had not. yesterday was relatively calm and keep an eye on that and it appears as of right now the conflict in gaza and war appears that both sides have been abiding by the ceasefire and heard from both sides and there's this big belief, big desire to make this ceasefire work. when all is said and done after the four days and after monday keeping tunnels possible and finding militants and moving forward deeper into the north and south and qatar already trying to broker conversation saying that they'll begin again trying to broker the new hostage deals, which is a big sign of hope for the families here who know they'll not be getting their loved ones back by monday. todd: now we wait. the next hour is critical. we'll check back in with you, alex, as news warrants. thank you very much. meantime go to knock seizure disorders 2024. polls have a message for democrats. it's still the economy, stupid. this is from an article from politico saying, democrats are panicking about the wrong thing "democrats are freaking out about the wrong polls. it's been a season of ugly polling for president joe biden is no doubt about it over the last year polls have shown voters hold ago decidedly grim economic out outlook. most rate it as poor and aren't sure we're going to approve and the economic issues and crucial battleground states and more trust in trump than bide ton do a better job on the economy and by a whopping 22 points". i actually disagree with this article's premise because let's be absolutely realistic. the reason joe biden is so far down in the polls is due in most part to the economy. it. if a big mac was $8 versus $18. if gas was $2 a gallon and if you could afford your darn groceries and it wouldn't matter as much that joe biden moves around like a human roomba on stage, i don't think people would care and his approval rating wouldn't be as low if the economy were actually good and people could afford that lives. rachel: right, the poll, this article in some of the polls talk about they trust republicans more to handle it. it comes down to one single issue and that's energy. energy is impacted all of these prices. look at these poll numbers by the way, 38% approve of joe biden's handling of the economy. almost 60% disapprove and hasn't changed much since september, joey. joey: yeah, going anywhere, it's going the wrong direction. the most important poll is the next poll we're going to talk about this. is really the premise of our country. do you think the american dream holds true and i'm bringing in up because so much of the american dream is planting your flag, buying a home and a small piece of property. this is your investment and what physical part of the country you own and the housing market and money lending is so upside down for people right now. it seems insurmountable to buy a home and start a family. looking at poll. they just had it up, says 45% says it might have been true once but it's not true anymore. the people that say it still holds true is barely a third of americans or those polls say it holds true and that's your motivation. that's your belief. dollar bill is a piece of paper unless you believe in it. that's your belief in this country. when that goes down, nothing is safe. rachel: you know, donald trump plays into the polls and it's not hard to remember back just a few years to how good the economy was for so many, especially the working class. this was a tic tock on social immediate jaire and a family and mother speaking to camera and telling what's going on in her family and she explains how she has a good job, her husband has a good job. still they're having trouble making ends meet and she speaks for a lot of moms and dads out there. listen. >> i feel like my husband and i are doing everything right. we both have good jobs, i'm a registered nurse, i work full-time, he works full-time. we just got paid this past friday. we pay the mortgage, bought some groceries, put some gas in the car. guys, it is tuesday and we have like 2 or $300 to last us until next friday. todd: that's sad. rachel: that's not the american dream. todd: it's reality. joey: it's reality. rachel: that is the reality. exactly. todd: that underscores my overall point is that, yes, trump lost the last election because people didn't like donald trump at that point in time. now we see people are upset that biden mumbles around, looks like he's, you know, in the early stages of dementia, but i truly do not believe that would matter and i think trump's getting the benefit of that and people to your point look and say maybe i was wrong but i didn't like all the trump stuff because when trump was in office, i wasn't experiencing that. it all comes back to the theme of that politico article and in and of itself was correct and economy, economy, economy. all this other stuff is superfluous. if people are feeling like they can get ahead or not fall behind, joe biden would be doing okay. the reason he's floundering a little bit to do with the extra economic stuff. it's mostly 99% the economy. joey: the problem with videos like that for politicians is that strikes at heart of narrative for both sides. republicans can't run from that. what's urinaritive? pull yourself up by your boot straps, go to work and work hard and take a risk and all the things i believe n. if we take them at face value, that's what they're doing and they have a couple hundred bucks left to go for a week and food for two people much less in they have kids costs more than that. there's no reason that a politician can stand there and point a finger back at them saying you need to do more. it's not the government's job to fix it but it's the government's job not to break it. that's the problem, what is the answer you offer a family like that right now today? rachel: the most expensive vehicle in america is the shopping cart and parents are facing that every day going into the grocery store and everything they could afford two, three years ago is that much more expensive and they're having -- i mean, this is a family doing everything they can right. still not making it. todd: joey touches upon a important point. republicans have a plan. don't say everything is bad and shake the windows. you need a plan and have a solution so that isn't experienced. meantime back to college stuff again. media literacy a required subject in schools in one state. take a guess what state it is. you have california. here's california assembly member mark bourbon saying we have a responsibility to teach the next generation to be more critical of consumers of online content and more guarded of misinformation, propaganda and conspiracy theories. that word, guys, misinformation. let me rewrite what they ped to say. we have a responsibility to make sure that nobody out there in the state of california gets any other media other than the left narrative. that's what they want it to say. rachel: that's exactly what they're doing and by the way, we have an entire censorship complex. our government aligned with big tech to censor information during the last election and, yeah, joe biden won but with a lot of help from the federal government censoring and controlling information. be wear reigns leading of tiktok friends that flow fio things and if a government control bed i a single party is the one doing it, we have no trust left knowing they're not basically doing a slight of hand and saying don't believe what they say. what those people say. that's the problem is regular every day americans may not be as -- in the nuance of the history of social media and may be out there trying to make ends meet and hear that and go i don't want my kid to eat tided and maybe this is a good idea and don't understand really what it can be and probably is is another form of indoctrination through social media by eliminating a perspective and senator jd vance of ohio had this to say about it. un-noter natalie when educators are forcing students to believe certain things and say certain things and projecting their own values onto these kids, it destroys trust in the education system. we also know that actually turns out a generation of americans that don't like their own country and we seem interested in drive ago certain set of kids and ideologies than preparing for the world and making sure they're smart. it's crazy but unfortunately we see the consequences of it every single day. we have a lot of chinese kids in china learning calculous in the third grade a. lot of american kids that are learning to check their white privilege. what's going to win the war of the future? that's not a bigamist reigns leading. todd: -- big mystery. todd: college is the opportunity to get a bunch of diverse viewpoints hoist upon you and what's right and wrong before you go out in the world. that statement that we just read from the california school system, colleges and universities basically wants to dot exact opposite of that. they want one way of reviewing the news and that's going to be the same way that they teach in their colleges and universities and to jd vance's point, people come out and they're laser focused on only the left ideology. rachel: this is not a project that start when is you become a freshman. it's kindergarten and beyond. it's not they're indoctrinating their kids and race and hatred. it's what they're not teaching and using up class time and resources on cultural marxism and activities that turn your child into a little marxist activist instead of critical thinking adults. >> if you read his book, he came from abuse and drug abuse and poverty in a split family and all the excuses and left would say he should have been a ward of the state. but what his family did for him, the loving members of his family to get him to a better place to go to college and the marine corp. we try to help those that experience p and go to the left and indoctrinate them and turning to a fox

make up the poorest two-thirds of humanity. this as kamala harris is under fire for her and the second gentleman at their gas stove, despite the biden administration's attempt to ban them. the great monica crowley is the host of monica crowley podcast and podcast i love and also listen to and she joins us now. monica, great to have you on and get your take on that photo of her with her gas stove, which i love gas stoves but they want to ban it. >> good morning, rachel, and thank you for the kind words. kamala harris is not exactly the brightest bulb in the box and maybe she didn't realize she was posting a social media story with the gas stove in the background and the biggest story is the real split in the country is frankly across the quest between the ruling class and everybody else. so the ruling class wants to inflict all of these insane restrictions on the rest of us when they have no intention of living by the same restrictions or standards. so they imposed all of this on us whether it's a restriction on natural gas for residential private homes like washington state and california has done and cities lake new york and san francisco and seat and will they impose this stuff on the rest of us and the ruling class does not abide by the rules and member during covid when gavin they don't care and they columbia everything and it doesn't stick they don't care. rachel: they're carving im-- carbon imprint is 20 times bigger than ours. they're doing all these rules because they want to control us. if you control food and energy and money, you control the population. this isn't about some moral case about climate. >> right, they don't believe it and john kerry, bill gates on their private jets with their massive yachts and huge motorcades and put it in our face and election is flying around the world. they put it in our faces because they don't care about the criticism and to your point, it's about power and control. they go after fuels and energy is the biggest sector and biggest transformation for western economies and they're going after power and control and a sitting atop and one quick quote from john keystone lake rendition of anthony who was biden's climate czar and asked% private jet use, rachel, he said it's the only choice for somebody like me. i heard that and said right there, they're telling you for somebody like me, i'm your better and superior and i need the private jet and about leveraging the energy sector to fundamentally transfer these economies away from free market systems and collectivist socialist model. rachel: the hypocrisy is galling and we have to go after the hoax and all of the climate stuff is a hoax and they know it and plenty of scientists refuting it. they've been thrown out of their profession and silence and canceled. none of this is true. it's all meant to just control us. >> thank you, rachel, always great. rachel: a live look at west bank where palestinian prisoners are set to be released
