"fox & friends" starts right now. remember, mornings are better with friends. ♪ >> brian: we begin with a fox news alert. roughly 100,000 civilians are under evacuation orders as we speak with israel preparing for an imminent offensive into rafah. >> charlie: israel's defense minister telling u.s. defense secretary lloyd austin overnight that hamas has left them with no choice after trying to negotiate a new hostage deal and cease-fire. >> ainsley: israel expanding the humanitarian area for all those evacuees in preparation for the flood of evacuees. and alex hogan joins us live with the latest. >> this grave warning coming from israel today warning all residents in rafah to flee as soon as possible. this is a live look at rafah, which is one of the southern most cities in the gaza strip, which is housing about 1.4 million people, many of whom had already been displaced earlier on since the start of the war. and this had largely been seen as last safe haven. israel released fliers there saying, quote: the idf is about to operate with force against a terror organization in the area currently reside. as the idf has operated so far. anyone in the area puts themselves and their family members in danger. now, u.s. and other governments have repeatedly warned israel against attacking rafah because of the potential risk to civilians. as you mentioned israel's defense minister gallant spoke with his u.s. counterpart lloyd austin last night. residents moved to humanitarian zone that has expanded humanitarian aid including field hospitals, food, medicine, and water. israel today explains that this is a limited scope operation, which will effect about 100,000 people, but not the entirety of wrath fall. still, there is already backlash with one hamas official saying that there will be serious consequences for all of this. now, all of this also comes after we had seen a lot of recent negotiations between israel, egypt, qatar, these main negotiating powers to try to broker some kind of cease-fire to release more hostages. all of that not coming to fruition. steve, brian, and charlie -- ainsley i should say. one thing we deed coo need to remember at this point israel says there are still more than 100 hostages being held in gaza. back to you. >> brian: all right. thanks so much. i appreciate it. mean i will whoorks let's just a look at what it means not everyone grows up in israel and knowing how conflicted this land is this gray area right here. this is the free zone. you're not going to get bombed if you go over here. a pier over here to allow humanitarian effort to come in. trying to create a corridor, to allow people -- it will be easy go out of egypt but they don't want to participate so they keep everything sealed off. so right now it looks like we are telling everybody to head south. in rafah this is where the invasion is going to come. the most thing they want to do is move as many people out as possible. the problem is in rafah is where the hostages are, and where the remnants of hamas is. there's thousands still there. and it looks like sinwar, the bin laden of this conflict is sitting right in the middle of what is left in the hostage population. at least, 20, 30, 40. we hope mover. we thought up to 130. that's a pipe dream sadly at this point. that's a question do you listen to antony blinken when he says don't go into rafah, do you know what the prime minister said? we have to go into wrath fall. that's where -- this is where the bad guys are this is where the people that gave us that december -- october 7th. this is why we have go in there if they don't go in there by the way this is going to happen again 18 months. they will plan another operation, believe it or not, even though they have lost the bulk of their fighting force, if they live to fight another day, even with a smaller population, it's considered a win. because that's what you have to look at right now. not a numbers game. survival is a win for hamas. and for prime minister netanyahu it's not a matter of politics, in my view. i think it's just a matter of him saying how can i possibly say i protected the israeli people from another attack if i leave the people in charge that perpetrated it, that scripted it alive and well? >> ainsley: yeah. he says no amount of pressure. no decision by any international forum will stop israel from defending itself. let's bring in retired brigadier general rob spalding. >> good morning. >> ainsley: brian was mapping that out. great job, brian. he was saying that's where the hostages are in rafah. does that mean israel is possibly go in and rescue those hostages? >> i'm sure they can but it's also going to be quite fraught because there is going to be active combat operation. i'm sure there is going to be casualties, and unfortunately i don't think hamas has left the israelis any choice. we are going after an ideology here. it's really not about the palestinians. s scary thing is that ideology has crept over here. >> charlie: so, hamas, israel says that hamas has six remains battalions. can you put that into some context against what they started with and how dangerous that -- that group -- that force is? >> well, they have been not just the numbers have been whittled down, something like 11 or 12,000 hamas fighters have been taken out. more importantly an attack israel has been whittled down. this is the last remaining vestige. and israel is right to wipe it out. >> brian: what's amaze something first time in my lifetime we have cut off ammo deliveries to israel. because they say they have not been discerning enough about the civilian population when attacking the most densely populated area that we have ever really seen in warfare at this point. your reaction to this half measure by the biden administration? >> look. we have had casualties in war. we have been criticized in war both iraq and afghanistan. when you are fighting in dense urban populations. especially given the adversary, in this case hamas, uses their population as human shields. i think the israelis have gone above and beyond, and they have been quite clear that they are trying to prevent civilian casualties. but, hamas really has to be held responsible for it. >> ainsley: yeah. israel has been dropping those familiar threats in this area warning them you need to get out. we could attack at any minute. so you need to get out. they have not given a timeline. brigadier general, thank you so much for joining us this morning. >> thank you. >> brian: blinken says rafah can't happen. the prime minister says it's happening. it's happening now. utter defiance and a grarkt two allies. >> ainsley: yesterday was holocaust remembrance day gave netanyahu a chance to talk and he said listen we are going to do what we are going to do. we are not listening to the united states or any other country. >> charlie: wherever you come down on the u.s. funding these things. congress has spoken. the idea the administration is going to hold up gunpowder and munitions to israel is unconstitutional. >> brian: you don't do this to france. you don't embarrass them on the election. new york vs. donald trump trial is set to begin at 9:00 a.m. eastern. prosecution gearing up for their star witness talking about michael cohen e will eventually take the stand, maybe this week. >> charlie: eric shawn is live from the new york supreme court with more. eric? >> good morning, brian. it will be a new week and new witness this morning after that emotional testimony from the hope hix on friday. this as prosecutors are gearing up for michael cohen trying to show that the former president hid his alleged affairs to protect his campaign. the defense says though, not not true. it was to protect his family. on friday ms. hix who was one of the former president's closest advisers, captivated the courtroom as she broke down in tears, testifying against her boss who sat a few feet away. legal experts say she both helped and hurt mr. trump. she revealed that trump did know about the secret payment to stormy daniels to keep her quiet. that's illegal experts corroborates with michael cohen is about to say when he testifies that trump was behind the alleged payoff scheme. but, on cross-examination, she said that trump did not want the news of stormy's claims to go public because it would hurt melania. quote: he was concerned about how it would be viewed by his wife. and he wanted me to make sure the noons weren't delivered to the residence that morning, she said. i don't think he wanted anyone in his family to be hurt or embarrassed by anything that was happening on the campaign trail. he wanted them to be proud of him, she said. she did not seem to buy trump's claim that cohen paid off stormy himself saying, quote: i would say that would be out of character for michael. i didn't know michael to be an especially charitable person or selfless person. we're also waiting to see if judge merchan will sock the former president with $4,000 more dollars in gag order violations on top of the nine grand he ponied up last friday we will see who that comes as who tefsz this morning. brian, we don't know. prosecutors are keeping that under wraps because they don't want the former president to attack whoever the witness is on truth social when he speaks out in the courtroom. when we find out who it is, we will let you know. right now we don't know who is going to take the stand. back to you. >> brian: is it safe the big witnesses, stormy daniels, macdougall and cohen. who is the other big witnesses? that's it, right? >> eric: well, could be some witnesses that we don't know about who were involved in processing some of these payments. >> brian: those are the big names. >> eric: we'll have to see. yeah, yeah. yeah. they are the big ones. >> charlie: thank you, eric. let's bring in fox news legal analyst gregg jarrett. along those line what is brian was just saying, when you look at all of these witnesses that alvin bragg has brought, in it does seem that they have all kind of backfired a little bit. >> gregg: i think it's true hope hicks was an example. charlie, she undermined the prosecution's case when she told the jury that trump's motive for suppressing salacious stories was to protect his wife, not campaign. so, that is the exact opposite of alvin bragg's central theory that trump's intent was to help his election and, therefore, he violated campaign laws. no, he didn't. and it corroborates the findings of the feds who said, you know, no crimes were committed here. no campaign finance violations. bragg has charged trump with falsifying private business records in 2017. well, think about that. that's the year after the election. it's factually impossible to unlawfully influence an election after it occurred. and what was false about these business records anyway? it was a negotiated legal settlement. so, of course you put it down as legal expenses. >> ainsley: gregg, it doesn't seem to be hurting him trump raised $76 million last month in april alone. when you look at the abc ipsos poll, it says what would do you if trump is convicted in this case? 80 percent said they would support him. 16 percent said they would reconsider supporting him and 4 percent said no longer support him. what's your reaction? >> well, i think those numbers prove a point. that americans are smart. they see through this charade. they see that trump is, first of all, a victim of blackmail by stormy daniels and, second of all. that this is a politically motivated prosecution by alvin bragg, i think by jack smith, fani willis and americans don't like it because it is election interference, blatantly so. americans think they are the ones who should decide who should be the next president, not prosecutors with an agenda. >> brian: all right. we will see where this goes. they say they are putting together a jigsaw puzzle. so far they haven't really mentioned what they are charging with and that's elections interference. they are just having hulk hogan, big names come in. get everyone's attention. let's see how they tie it together or if it's even possible. or if they have made up their mind, the jury, we wouldn't know. see what happened earlier in georgia and that case blew up or is blowing up and might have to be reconfigured or reintroduced because of nathan wade and the relationship with fani willis. nathan wade is speaking out about office romance. and, regrets, does he have a few or too few to remember? let's watch. >> workplace romances are as american as apple pie, it happens to everyone. but it happened to the two of us. >> do you regret is it. >> i regret that that private matter became the focal point of this very important prosecution. this is a very important case. i hate that my personal life has begun to overshadow the true issues in the case. >> charlie: i think i grew up in the wrong america. >> gregg: what wade is really say something he only regrets getting caught. this guy is a piece of work. claiming his affair is as american as apple pie? i wonder how his ex-wife thinks about that? he has a twisted sense of athletics. ethics. every time he opens his mouth he embarrasses hisself further. he melted down cross-examination. we confronted with his sworn statement that he never had an extramarital affair. his reasoning was that cheating on his wife didn't count. he was raking in mountains of cash from his lover. living lavishly. the judge called it an odor of mendacity. i'm still mystified how wade and willis both committed the same misconduct, he gets canned, she doesn't. and as his boss, she, fani willis, had a greater responsibility to avoid to avoid impropriety. yet, there she is, still on the case. >> brian: gregg, do you feel a man is not a plan, it's just a companion? >> gregg: a what? i'm sorry. >> ainsley: that's what fanny said. my daddy taught me a man is not a plan. >> gregg: yeah. okay. [laughter] >> brian: all right. >> gregg: i think i better stay out of that. >> brian: okay, fine. >> charlie: smart man. >> ainsley: thank you, gregg. >> brian: we will see what happens. she likes to keep a lot of cash around. i thought he would remember that. that's all i think about. >> charlie: what are they teaching in law school these days? >> brian: a man is not a plan. three servers went missing last week. have identified the he remains. found the bofdz jack carter road and australian brothers jake and callum robinson shot in the head at the bottom of a 50-foot well. >> ainsley: madeleine rivera joins us with all the details. what a crazy story. >> this is a crazy story. mexican authorities say it took them hours to get those bodies keep in that rail. jack carter road from san diego and the two others last seen last weekend. they had been enjoying a surfing trip in mexico a couple miles south of the u.s. and mexico border. found along the coast. investigators believe the surfers were the victims of a robbery. baha, california chief prosecutor says when the thieves tried to get the vehicle the victims opposed the robbery. the robbers were armed with a firearm and apparently shot the victims. the thieves then traveled to a remote area to dump the bodies that well which they then covered up with boards. now, a friend of the robinson brother says he is never going back to mexico. >> it's done for me. i know a lot of the folks that i have talked to in our network, they are done as well. we live close. we are in san diego. so it's right here. it's been our backyard for a very long time and we have been going to mexico at least for myself 15 years and that stopped. >> a fourth body was found in the well which had been there for much longer. police had taken two men and one woman into custody. charlie, ainsley and brian? >> brian: it's terrible. thanks, maddy. >> ainsley: a fourth body found in that well. who does that belong to? they said it's been there a long time. >> charlie: they said a local rancher. it's dangerous. >> brian: san diego, the radio station i worked at in san diego, people would talk about going to tijuana and going there going to connecticut. like i'm going to tijuana this weekend. now i can't imagine people saying or thinking like that anymore. or i'm just going to go to mexico for a second would. >> charlie: it's a totally failed state. look at all the ancillary problems spin off for us. >> ainsley: not for me. i was an anchor down in san antonio, they said ainsley you are never allowed to go across the border. if they ever see you are not coming home. wowomen were not safein that ar. this was one of the most dangerous parts of mexico. turning now to more headlines beginning with the developing story. police in new mexico are looking for this 10-month-old little girl saying she could be be in quote imminent danger after her mother and another woman found dead last week a a-year-old was also found with them. she was taken to the hospital with a head injury. officers have not yet been able to identify the suspect. new york city mayor eric adams telling new york city colleges to move forward with graduation despite anti-israel protests looking to disrupted all the ceremonies. >> graduate from an institution and i don't think we should allow anything to get in our normal way of life. we will make sure it's done in a peaceful manner. >> ainsley: columbia university has requested nypd's presence staying on the campus until after the graduation. abc's news chief kim god win is leaving the network. godwin making making the announcement following restructuring that reportedly limited her control and comes amid reports saying she faced internal backlash at the network over leadership style. godwin joined in 2021 after serving as a vice president at cbs news. a successor has not yet been named. boeing is finally yesterday to launch star liner space capsule after 10 years delay. two astronauts will pilot this trip which is launching from cape canaveral space station in florida tonight. this will be the first time humans have flown on board. boeing had dealt with a series of problems that pushed its launch with astronaut backed significantly. the spacecraft expected to dock at the international space station a day after lifting off. >> brian: don't sit by the window. >> ainsley: now to a wild scene in the water as members of team u.s.a. went flying out of its boat after it capsized practice run for the bermuda grand prix over the weekend. five of the six crew members on board were sent overboard. thankfully, no one was seriously injured. and finally madonna. putting on a free performance in brazil on saturday. in front of more than 1.5 million people that is the biggest show of that done naps four decade long career longest stand alone concert forever. the 65-year-old performing classic hits like a prayer and nothing really matters and even brought on some brazilian artists. the perform hans was the last show of the tour that done naps first red throw speckive tour. >> brian: what a bounceback from her she almost died and now in brazil. incredible. >> charlie: will you still be touring when you are 65. >> ainsley: he definitely will. >> brian: i don't do as much dancing asthma donna. and i don't have as many costumes. >> charlie: see him when the costumes are off. that's why he goes to tijuana. >> brian: 21 minutes after the hour. >> charlie: 200 rescues in texas from massive flooding as more severe weather threatens millions in the midwest today. >> brian: all right. plus, a large palestinian flag raised at george washington university as washington's statue remain defaced at this hour. how could this be. how protesters are working against peace in the middle east, next. ♪ her uncle's unhappy. i'm sensing an underlying issue. it's t-mobile. it started when we tried to get him under a new plan. but they they unexpectedly unraveled their “price lock” guarantee. which has made him, a bit... unruly. you called yourself the “un-carrier”. you sing about “price lock” on those commercials. “the price lock, the price lock...” so, if you could change the price, change the name! it's not a lock, i know a lock. so how can we undo the damage?

>> brian, we have had so much storms. rain and severe weather across parts of the plains over the last couple weeks, these storms this last week jumped up to 20 inches of rain in texas and especially southeast texas. all those rivers that have now been filling up from that rain have caused really incredible flooding. the good news on this take a look at the satellite radar miracle in texas. all of that is out of here. much drier week set up at least for texas. that said, this storm right here brought incredible amounts of snow across parts of the rockies and sierra, nevada. this is going to eject back out over the central plains looking at the potential for overy significant severe weather outbreak a level 4 out of five is the threat there had been discussions about moving us to a level 5 out of 5. how significant this is. maybe once, two times a year. especially where you see this pink color that, is our highest threat for tornadoes and some of the tornadoes today could be large and long-tracked those could be the ones that cause so much damage here. be on the watchout for this across parts of oklahoma, kansas, even up towards nebraska. these areas, brian that, have been battered the last couple weeks, they have more of it coming for them today. >> good news is they usually know how to handle this they are used to severe weather, right? >> yes. still tough if you have a big tornado coming your way. >> brian: thanks so much. turning now to headlines the biden campaign is reportedly limiting how much the president says on the campaign trail, really in the team is taking a new less is more approach where the president will reportedly stick to three or four talking points during his public appearances. the strategy is aimed to help the president make less mistakes when talking. i'm sure is he thrilled that story came out. former president trump receiving a very warm welcome from racing fans at the miami grand prix yesterday. trump arriving at the event the hhard rock stadium to a crowd chanting u.s.a., u.s.a. as he entered. trump could be speaking with different ceos of race teams and other high profile people before the race. he must have loved that and who wouldn't. go over to ainsley. >> ainsley: they love him down there. u.s. campuses still grappling with anti-israel protesters at gw the statue of america's first president still remains defaced by the agitators. meanwhile, in texas, governor abbott is vowing divestment willner happen as protesters demand a boycott of companies tied to israel. and a columbia law school student or law school group i should say, reportedly declaring, quote: no jew is safe until everyone is safe and no jew is free until palestine is free. our next guest went to columbia law school. robert charles served as the assistant secretary of state under george w. bush and he joins us now. good morning to you. robert. >> good morning. >> ainsley: good morning. so, i'm seeing this huge palestinian flag being put up on the gw campus. >> do these protesters actually know about the real history of this conflict and what hamas -- i mean, hamas is a terrorist organization. how could they do this in america? >> yeah. so, it's a disgrace for starters. i think we all know, common sense, that appeasing lawlessness only escalates lawlessness. i also would suggest that these protesters need to remember that there is no first amendment protection for civil disobedience and certainly isn't for uncivil disobedience. so, you know, it's ironic, a school is especially a place under a case called tinker v. des moines, there is a very clear rule that says if there is a threat of substantial disturbance on a campus you can bring law enforcement. in all of these folks are obviously actually in criminal violation. they there are a bunch of criminal statutes ranging from property destruction, which is obvious there to form 3458 definitions of assault. it's a significant issue' and on columbia's campus, gosh it's utter disgrace. there are three supreme court justices that came up out of columbia law school and if you can imagine the threat against jews there means that someone like ruth bader ginsburg wouldn't have been safe on the campus. law enforcement needs to come in. prosecutions need to occur. 25% of those who are currently being arrested. seem to be professionals paid by somebody. i think we should find out who is paying them. the pro-ciewrmingt of a crime is a crime and find those groups and find those individuals and prosecuted them. and they should do jail time. >> ainsley: even senator john fetterman, a democrat, pennsylvania. he was saying that protesters are working against peace. listen to this. >> they are not helping and working against peace in the middle east. it's strange to me they are not protesting for a cease-fire now. and there has been a very valid cease-fire on the table and hamas has been -- refused at the take that on. i don't know why if we are going to protest things, why aren't we protesting demanding hamas to take that kind of a cease-fire and then that would end all of the trauma and chaos going on in gaza. >> ainsley: robert, he makes some excellent points. >> look, it's nice to hear fetterman saying such a thing. the bottom line is i think we have to dig deeper. the goal of these priftds, which are synchronized nationwide is to obviously create a degree of chaos. we have to ask a deeper question. look, you don't see students jumping up and down protesting the killing of and the imprisonment of millions in china or iran or cuba or venezuela. this one is one that has been carefully, i think, preplanned and organized. i think part of the thing we are not really addressing right now is that there are forces behind this that really want chaos on campuses. and i wouldn't be surprised if they don't want to see chaos expand beyond the campuses. so, are there legitimate issues here? yes. should they be discussed in earnest? yes. but, the violence that occurred at aclu, the kind of thing happening in washington and new york is really violence, i think, for the sake of silence. it's really sad to see it because. of all places to see it at columbia law school is a tremendous disappointment. >> a lot of people share your same sentiment in new york. thank you for coming on and waking up early. >> of course. >> ainsley: forget classroom splice, housing. police-free schools and funded abortions. these are just a few of the $50 billion demands from chicago teachers an illinois parent will react. ♪ ♪ ♪ let's get started. bill, where's your mask?
