The west coast. I wish i could do the math in my head im not to that point. May 16th is the date now fox friends. The debates are officially on but only on bidens terms as the white house is already dodging questions. [shouting questions] who is going to stand in during the prep for donald trump . Do you want to do that . I can connect you with the campaign. Steve that would be epic. And no scaredycats here, a 9yearold girl and mother come face to face with a giant cougar in their backyards. Ainsley you could take him bound. Brian i could easy. Steve dont worry no predators or pets were harmed. Brian High School Students pulling that hilarious senior prank on their principal bagpipes] ainsley guess what, they are going to get a surprise of their own, live with us on air this morning. Lawrence fox friends starts right now. And, remember, mornings are better with friends. On this thursday Morning Begin with President Trump agreeing to President Bidens terms and conditions for two televised debates way ahead of the november election. Ainsley lukes tomlinson joins us with all the details. I was thinking about in this morning. When we started the show this was not even on the table. Now here we are two are on the calendar. Everything changes everything. Thats right, ainsley. President biden and former President Trump agreeing to two debates not a third on fox despite this modern day acceptance letter from donald trump which reads please let this truth serve to represent that i hereby accept debating Crooked Joe Biden on fox news. The date will be wednesday, october 2nd. The host will be bret baier and martha mccallum, thank you d. J. T. If you like throwback thursday, ainsley how about this the two debates that biden and trump have agreed to will look like the first ever televised it will have no audience no. R. F. K. Jr. Or any other Third Party Candidate. R. F. K. Jr. Can make it to the stage if he gets to 15 in four separate national polls. Now, there will also be limited news outlets and candidates mics must mute as time expires. Here is r. F. K. s reaction to this. President s trump and biden are colluding to lock americans into a headtohead matchup that 70 say they do not want. They are trying to exclude me from it their debate because they are afraid i would win. According to a new fox news poll the public would like it see r. F. K. Jr. On that debated stage. At least 43 say its very or extremely important that he be there. 20 say its not at all important that biden and trump debate. Many have compared this election to 1968, nixon won because of protests on college campuses. Its notable that nixon refused to debated hue Pert Humphrey because he didnt like his 1906 performance and didnt want to share debate stage Third Party Candidate George Wallace who ended up with 13 of the vote and he won five states. Steve he did, indeed. Lawrence history lesson. Steve r. F. K. Jr. Is he is steamed as lucas just says because he says the two teams are coincluding against him and in fact they actually did. There were back channel chats between both of the campaigns we dont want to work with the commission so lets do something. They put it on the table. R. F. K. Says i can qualify because what the rules say is it would be open to any candidate with 15 in four polls on enough ballots in enough states to win the electoral college. But, heres the problem. Right now he is only on in four and apparently biden told cnn i will only do debates oneonone and the Trump Campaign was told by a cnn producer r. F. K. Will not be on the stage. Ainsley 43 of the voters say they would like to see him on the debate stage but, if he doesnt have a shot at winning and maybe he would if he were able to debate but the chances are slim if you look at all the polls. So do you include everybody or do you just include those top two candidates . Lawrence looks like the person thats mostly blocking it is joe biden. The Trump Campaign has said we had Karoline Leavitt on fox friends first. She says take it up with the networks. Let the networks decide. I dont think trunk is afraid of robert kennedy. He is already on the attack on him anyway. Put him on the stage and see what happens. Ainsley biden says he will not participate in the rules are not met. Brian what bothers me is cnn gets the first debate. What bothers me is jake tapper and dana bash. They are very intelligent, smart people but they despise donald trump. We can put together montages that could go on for hours. On seans show tonight the negative things they said about him. Jake tapper made the decision to not cover any trump press conferences. They have a president of cnn fired for simply having a town hall and okay they maneuvered set up eliminate fox which is ridiculous. These guys, its hard enough to win a debate against is a sitting president even though you know the issues so well. To say have two moderators working against you. Bad to kill the mics. You need that interaction. Because, if its answer question, answer question, answer question, we can do that any time. You got to have you have to have the interaction. Now, the interruptions and interactions are different. But, i want the free give and take where the moderators become part of the woodwork and it becomes about the candidates. There is a lot of problems with this format. Lawrence i agree. Ainsley why would biden make the criteria so it excludes fox . We have a lot of independents. Lawrence so glad that you made that. Ainsley big mistake to exclude fox. Lawrence just imagine all the scandals that have been covered through this past administration from the border. We were the first one at the border. They shut our drone down. We just went up with the texas dps helicopter. No one was covering the border. Remember the moms with the baby formula . Oh, inflation is not a real issue. We were the only ones going out there to give those interviews. The stuff thats happening on the college campuses. All these pressing issues for the country, do you think any of these moderators are going to ask about that and be fair to say joe biden what is your position . Brian topic. Steve we have seen in the past where the moderators factcheck the candidates and that, you know, for Candy Crowley that became a very big problem because she corrected him. She was not right. Lawrence cnn. Steve better when the candidates correct each other. Debates on on very, very early actually before any of the candidates are nominated by their parties. Yesterday our white house guy was a very busy guy trying to get some answers about these debates. Apparently some of the details still being worked out but peter doocy tried. Watch. Jfk for debate. [shouting] why not debate a third time . [shouting] lets go, guys. Thank you. Everyone, appreciate it. Peter not a debate specific system but prep that traditionally can happen here at the white house, who is going to stand in during the prep for donald trump . Who is going to stand in . Do you want to stand in for donald trump . Do you want to do that . I can connect you with the campaign. That might be fun for you. Peter so you can say i can go debate joe biden Behind The Scenes for as long as i want . Yes. Steve that should be televised. Brian ron klain is going to be brought. In i guess is he back. Former Chief Of Staff is going to be back to help him out on all these other issues. Its going to be interesting on the 27th, also. Jake tapper got awards for the russia story. Never apologized. He should be giving that trophy back and melting it down and doing something positive with it and maybe selling it on what is it made of copper or some type of pewter . Because he they tocketsly made up a story. Ran with it for two and a half years, tried to destroy his administration. And never apologized for it. And now they get to debate . How is that okay . Ainsley nancy pelosi is not for this debate. I wish he wouldnt do this. They need to have town halls to reporters and anchors can challenge them. Peter was asking Karine Jeanpierre why why All Of A Sudden are you deciding to debate . Is it because ever the really bad poll numbers . And she went on about his record and how good bidens record was. Steve its because they had spent millions of dollars on advertising. The Donald Trump Criminal Trial is going on, and they have got a mountain of cash. And none of it has helped joe biden. And thats why out of nowhere yesterday, they shook everything up by saying hey, you know what . Lets have a debate. Lawrence we can throw up the free on wednesday tshirts fundraisers. This is ridiculous. This is the same type of stuff that the judges daughter is doing for adam schiff and other democrats. You dont get to get involved in the political process through unlawful prosecution and then raise money off of it. I think this is why the former president is saying this is law lawfare. Straight out election going one on one cant have the judiciary getting involved and they feel comfortable fundraising on it and i think thats a shame. Day 18 former President Trumps criminal trial set to begin in a few hours with Michael Connie crossexamination expected to take place this morning. Brian eric shawn live outside the white house. This could be the biggest day yet for defense. Not the white house yet though, brian. We are at the Manhattan Criminal Court and stunning new claim that could blow up this case. That Michael Cohen lied on the stand about donald trump. You know, earlier this week Michael Cohen, the former president s lawyer testified that he that trump oversaw and approved the plans to pay off Stormy Daniels to protect his president ial campaign. But now a wellknown new york lawyer who once advised cohen Robert Costello told a Judiciary Subcommittee Yesterday that in 2018 cohen told him, the former president had nothing to do with the deal. Every time i brought it up, every time he answered, i swear to god, excuse me, bob, i dont have anything on donald trump. I said, michael, whatever you have, has to be truthful. If you think you can go in there and tell these people lies, youre crazy. Its going to backfire on you. You cant do that. Eric legal experts say the Trump Defense could use costellos claims to try to impeach cohens credibility and accuse Michael Cohen of committing perjury on the stand. Cohen will be back testifying today and he will again face trump lawyer todd blanche in his crossexamination. You know, we dont know if todd blanche will call robert does tell throat stand. What he claims about cohen could be considered h hearsay and not admissible. Im sure todd blanche will certainly confront Michael Cohen with what Robert Costello says. We may hear from the former president himself when he speaks about these stunning new claims that Michael Cohen said he had nothing on donald trump. Back to you guys in the studio. Steve all right, eric shawn with an umbrella lower manhattan, lousy day in new york. Brian a lot against donald trump and tried to make that clear. Bring in Gregg Jarrett fox news legal analyst. Gregg, with this bob costello revel Labor Relations we knew. Would would you do it . I think, brian, it is very tempting for the defense to call bob costello because can look into the faces of the jury and say this guy, Michael Cohen, he has been lying to you. He swore to me he kept trump in the dark about this Stormy Daniels payment, it was all his idea. He acted on his own. His client had nothing to do with it. The opposite of what cohen told the jury. And he also confessed to his then attorney that trumps only concern was protecting his wife, not the campaign. Again, the opposite of cohens testimony. It means that cohen has essentially been lying about the two pivotal legal issues in the case and prosecutors, they know it. They wanted him to lie. That is subbourning perjury. He will do anything by Hook Or Crook mostly by crook, brian. Lawrence real quickly though, is there any risk to bringing him on the stand . Us watching it and we are not lawyers, think this would be slam dunk testimony. Yeah. But you never know. Look, i learned hard way the first case i ever tried in front of a jury. And i called a witness i didnt really need to call, and the dam odessa things came out of her mouth that she had never told me before. And it really boomeranged other 7eleven that if you ever winning, if prosecutors havent proven their case sit counsel, shut up, dont call any more witnesses. Brian its with the jury are you winning. Ainsley if you are donald trump, do you think Behind The Scenes is he telling his team we need bob costello on the stand . Eric did a great Job Reporting on that but bob costello said some other things too, he called cohen a serial liar. Trump never knew about the payments Stormy Daniels. Is he on revenge tour because he wanted to be the a. G. And Chief Of Staff and he was mad at donald trump because of that he told him over and over and over he doesnt have anything on donald trump and that trump did not know about that 130,000 payment wouldnt you if you are donald trump say to your lawyers i want him on the stand . Yeah, probably but you really have to defer to the experience and wisdom of your lawyers. Look, i think its beyond foolish to make an infamous liar your final witness to hang your entire case on it they are vouching for his credibility and they knew he would be exposed as the habitual liar that he is his greed most of all. This guy makes a living trashing trump, trolling for dollars on tiktok, lunatic rants, yelling into the camera, trump belongs in a cage like an fing animal. Think about this. When cohen comes to court is he all dressed nicely, he is calm and polite. Thats a con job by a skilled charlatan and jurors through crossexamination are becoming acquainted with the real Michael Cohen nasty, vile and a loathesome person. Steve we have been talking about bob costello, everybody has been talking about him. He is actually going to be on americas newsroom that starts at 9 00 eastern time right here. Gregg, before you go, so, ultimately, second day of crossexamination for Michael Cohen, he has done pretty much everything the prosecution wanted him to do, so it all comes down to does the jury believe him . Gregg yeah, you have to factor into the calculation, steve, you know, this is a new york jury. They are liberal. They are probably predisposed to convicted trump without any evidence at all. You got a judge who is acting as a Prosecutor Engineering a conviction. So, you know, its an Up Hill Battle Here But Today will be absolutely pivotal if Michael Cohen is utterly destroyed on crossexamination. Well wait and see. Brian all right, gregg, thanks. Its going to be good because they got to sit there and go at one point they want to establish his objective. His objective is to get trump in jail. At first he denied it and then they Start Building it. Now today i think they have to at one point just go in 2016 you said this, 2019 you said this. All the way up to 2024 usc caught lying and called by the judge who cut the deal with you when you said yeah, i signed that but i didnt believe it. You said a serial perjurer. Jonathan turley pointed out he might have perjured himself already by saying he recorded the conversation to protect trump against david becker. No one could find out the logic behind that statement. Thats illogical statement. Lawrence i want to know if the defense is going to show the video. I feel like the jury needs to see the contradictions going back and forth. The montage of seeing all of the stuff that he said against donald trump. Because its one thing hearing it its another thing seeing it. Steve all right. So it kicks off three hours and 12 minutes from right now and we have conch live throughout the day. Brian what i love about the bob costello head shot it looks like is he busy. We stare straight ahead. Steve his ears are burning. Everybody is talking about him. Brian im on the modify. I dont have time for a head shot. I like a busy guest. Steve do you know who else is busy hosting a program at 5 00 a. M. And now carley is going to come up in a minute. Ainsley come up and tell us interesting story about these animals. Brian i hope she is in a good mood. Ainsley she is always in a good mood. An American Woman is stuck behind behind bars in Turks And Caicos after ammo was found in luggage at airport. Fifth american this year charged under the islands strict gun laws. Last month we spoke with another tourist facing similar charges. They extracted a small package that contained four rounds of Hunting Ammunition that i use commonly while deer hunting. I had zero idea that those bullets were in there. Ainsley check the pockets of your luggage if you are a big hunter when you go to Turks And Caicos. Officials claim they have found two rounds of ammunition in her bag. The woman and her daughter were both arrested. Though the daughter was later released. Russian president Vladimir Putin and chinese president xi are meeting or they did meet earlier today in beijing. The two leaders hailing their partnership as a, quote, stabilizing force for the world. Ha. Putin thanking xi for efforts to end the war in ukraine. She is saying in response, quote, china hopes for the early return of europe to peace and stability and continue to play a constructive role towards. This the Biden Administration announcing its cutting funding from the firm that helped pay for research at chinas Wuhan Institute of virology. The lab thats been linked to the outbreak of covid19. The department of health and Human Services saying that the firm did not properly monitor their lab and the Virus Experiments and lax the present responsibility to deserve federal funding. And those are some of your headlines. Brian all right. Its going to be interesting. Meanwhile, Close Encounters caught on camera as people come face to face with wild animals. Steve and here she is, finally. That person who is very busy. Here with some of the heartstopping confrontation. Go ahead, show us what you got. Three greats. Carley bingo. Wild video to show you guys i mean wild in every sense of the word. Start in mexico where a wild bull attacks a woman several times on the beach over the weekend. Watch this. [shouting] [bleep] get away carley Oh My Goodness before the attack that woman could be seen trying to feed the animal. Despite many onlookers warning the people not to interact with it. Her condition remains unclear at this time. But she does appear later in the video to walk away from the incident. But my goodness. She got tossed around like a rag doll. Brian this is why i All Of A Sudden go to the beach as a rodeo clown. Her bathing suit wasnt red. Lawrence what are you doing feeding the animal . Ainsley watch the beginning of the video the bull is like walking up to her bag of food and she goes over and starts opening the bag for him. Lawrence wild. Steve one thing to feed the ducks at the duck pond but another thing to feed a thousand pound bull. [moo] steve Cabo San Lucas very popular vacation spot. Apparently there are a bunch of ranches, farms around, and so not only are bulls often out there but also donkeys. Who knew . Ainsley everyone kept yelling at her please dont do that. We tried to fing tell you. She did get up and walk away. Carley can you imagine what was going through her mind as it was happening. Another situation just like that different animal, different country now to the bahamas where a deck hand from florida was attacked by sharks, plural, after miscalculating a jump on a charter he was working on. He was only in the water for a couple of seconds when 20 sharks charged at him. Two of those sharks bit him. One on the shoulder, the other on the leg. Grabbed me, pulled my head under water and then let go of me. I got really lucky he didnt head shake or hold on for a while. Yeah, remarkably, look at his condition there, expected to make a full recovery that situation, im sure, one he will never forget. 20 sharks charging at him all at once. Lawrence he walked away. Was he not tasty . Explain 20 sharks and decide oh, i dont want you no more. Steve apparently an area where the fishing boat throw all their bait at the end of the day and they just throw it overboard. He fell in and there were 20 sharks there. Doctors say is he lucky to be alive. Carley feeding on the bait and thought he was a big piece of bait thats why they charged at him. Carley so fortunate to be alive a lot of sharks no. One wants to be in contact with one. So cute. It no one will care about the scars. Carley can you find sunny size of the shark attack.

According to the actress the driver was released by police after claiming selfdefense. An examination of the dog allegedly showed it did not by the or attack anyone prior to his death. Those are your headlines, brian, over to you. President bidens Border Crisis rages on planning to take action months before the election and the numbers reveal why. Brand new cbp data revealed to fox news shows the number of gotaways surging under biden to 1. 6 million. Passing obama and trump years combined. Over 600,000 last year alone. Here with reaction the guy who used to deal with those numbers daily dhs secretary chad wolf. Chad, first off, before we get to the executive order, the gotaways. Last year you guys were in office, 151,000. Last year 2023, 670,000. The significance . Well, the significance is that under three years of the Biden Administration the gotaways have skyrocketed. The three years eclipse the decade before President Biden came into office. So just think about that. More got aways in three years than in the previous 10 years before he came. What that tells me is that his policies are encouraging, facilitating this type of trafficking and smuggling and the fact that you dont have Border Patrol officers on the line trying to apprehend these individuals. Instead they are getting away in numbers and in record numbers. Who are the type of people gotaways, as opposed to coming through getting logged in, getting your 10year free press until you go in front of a judge. Who are those type of people . Yeah. Its very clear. Its the individuals that dont want to come into contact with law enforcement. So those are your National Security and those are your Public Safety threats. Mainly criminals that have criminal records back in their home countries. And they know that if they are encountered by law enforcement, they are going to be sent back. Brian so, i want you to hear President Biden. When asked about possible fixes from the oval office, executive orders, listen when it comes to immigration i have done all i can do. Give me the power. I have asked from the very day i got in office. Its time for the republicans in congress to show a little courage, to show a little spine. The bipartisan bill would be good for america and help fix our broken immigration system. And allow speedy access for those who deserve to be here. And Congress Needs to get it done. I sent congress a comprehensive plan on immigration reform. My Friends On The Other Side have done nothing with that. Over and over i have asked for resources to step up action at the border. I made it clear that we need congress to make changes to fix what is a broken immigration system. Brian chad, guess what . You dont need congress as you have been saying. Is he about to offer Executive Action shut down the border if they get over 4,000. They will shut everything down. What do you think about the hypocrisy . Its interesting. Obviously we are in Election Year i would ask President Biden and his administration where have they been the last three and a half years. They have had the ability to stop this crisis, to use executive authority. And they have done nothing. And so now were three and a half years or six months out from an election, and now they have decided well, maybe i should actually do something about this border and Start Talking about these different measures. The 4,000 that you mentioned, its not going to be stop this crisis. We should not be allowing 4,000 illegal crossings a day. 1. 5 million a year. Thats not the right approach it. Does nothing to stop Catch And Release or asylum fraud. Brian and you could do so much from the executive branch. And he is pretending like he cant and he absolutely can. And every time he does something, is he proving himself to be a liar. Chad, it will be scary if he gets four more years to break our border because it could only get worse. Thanks so much. Thank you. Brian all right. Lets talk about 2024. The stage is set. Trump and biden agree to a showdown. Not without bidens lengthy list of demands. So who has more to gain .

At evernorth, we combine medical and pharmacy data with Behavioral Health data to identify members in need of care. Predicting and treating Behavioral Health issues quickly. While lowering costs for Plan Sponsors and members. Thats wonder made possible. Evernorth Health Services janice we are focusing in on the flood risk for our friends in texas and louisiana today. This is monthtodate rain. So close to a foot already for areas like lufkin, texas. And 3 to 5 inches on top of that. Thats going to cause an extreme flooding situation. We already have the potential for severe storms today. But its the Flooding Risk i am most concerned with for parts of texas through louisiana and mississippi. Dallas, you are in on this. Houston as well. Its not very often we see a four out of four with a flash flood risk. This area has not seen a 4 out of 4 since harvey for this area. So thats very concerning for these folks. You have to know where you are going to get those watches and warnings and do not travel over water you cannot see the bottom of. This is going to be a daylong event throughout the rest of the workweek and into the weekend. So, very, very concerning for this area across the south. Steve doocy i know you have relatives in dallas, texas, but this is going to be central texas, southeast texas, and people need to be on alert. This is a big deal. Steve indeed. In fact im flying to dallas a little later on today. Steve. Janice i will keep you up to date my friend. Steve the stage is set President Biden and former President Trump agreeing to two debates. It didnt come without a list of joe bidens terms including no audience, no Third Party Candidates and limited news outlets. As the Wall Street Journal argues the current president may have more to gain. Joining us right now is wall street Journal Editorial Board member and Fox News Contributor bill mcgurn. Good morning, bill. Good morning, steve. Steve what is the Wall Street Journal talking about there . Well, trump may gain because in the last go around he blustered and kind of interrupted and i dont think that helped him. I think these debates are going to help him. More to advantage. You know, just as the challenger, you have an Avantage Over Incumbent who has to defend his record. I think that, when you add in bidens age and his feebleness, i think the contrast favors trump as well. Steve i think you are absolutely right. Heres the thing. As we learned at the state of the union, with joe biden, the bar is so low. Yes. He is good at lowering it. I think people will give him credit just for showing up. Steve staying awake. Story he has a bad record like with the american people. He is under water on all the issues, the economy, the border, foreign policy, so, i think its hard for him. He cant just attack. He also trump is no doubt going to bring up stuff he said in the last debates that were not things that were not true such as that hunter took no money from china. We now know he admitted in court that he did. Steve right. So i think joe biden has a lot to worry about. Steve sure. Heres the thing. Even though there is not going to be an audience in the studio or wherever they have this thing, people are going to be watching. We have a fox news poll that shows the importance of president ial debates and as you can see right there, 41 say its extremely important. And then far right, you see should r. F. K. Be included and you can see a pliewrttle of plif people think he should be but he is not going to be. Apparently both sides didnt want him there thats the problem Third Party Candidates always have. They dont really have a lot of power. And the candidates arent forced to take them. Even though people would like it. Look, this is going to be like the alli frayser matches. Remember the thrilla in manila. People are going to be tuning. In ordinary year people want to see what the candidates say and in response to the other guy. This is not a normal year.
