Fox friends hour one starts right now pet zell when you think of toughness you think of queen. The spartan rage is on the plaza this morning. Whole challenge including climbing ropes and diving through fire. We will not be diving through fire or having any spears thrown through us. Well be competing some more effectively than others. Throughout the show we will each humiliate yourselves. Anna vs. Tucker this morning. That is not even close. Lay your money down now. Whats your handy happen in a spartan race . A lot. I will be taking on rick, which is clearly my money is on rick. Have you seen his calves . He will kill me. Good morning. How is everybody doing . All right . This saturday we have some News Headlines we want to tell you about. Get right to that Camp Pendleton marine base third fire unite. So far more than 22,000 acres have burned across Southern California. Causing 20 million in damage. At least one person has died. One wildfire coming just feet away from the house owned by christian singer rebecca saint james. The star posting this picture on facebook saying a miracle stopped the blaze. Meanwhile one person now facing arson charges. Witnesses say they saw 57yearold alberto adding brush to fires near oceanside. He has pled not guilty. And new overnight, a woman falls down an elevator shaft at bostons fenway park. The Fire Department saying the shaft fourth floor doors opened unexpectedly and the 22yearold woman fell on to the roof at the elevator at the second floor. Rescuesers reached her through a hatch on the elevators roof and took her to the hospital. No word on her conditions. The red sox play the tigers friday night. And a mother that saved her son from a burning build something speaking out about the ordeal for the very first time. Christina simon leapt 35 feet to get out of harms way all while hold are her 18 month old son cammeron . It really felt like was i falling in slow motion. It felt like a very very long fall. A mothers love. The impact from the fall broke her back and doctors say its unclear if she will ever walk again. Christinena, however, is hopeful. I know that even if it take as a year, you know, im gonna be able to hold him and pick him up and, you know, do all my mommy duties. Christina says she would do it all over again in order to save cammeron. Wow. While you were sleeping, g. P. S. Just got better. And we have lift off, lift off of the United Launch Alliance delta four rocket carrying the sixth g. P. S. 2 satellite for the United States air force. A rocket carrying a new satellite lifts off into space. The sixth of 12 planned upgrades to the g. P. S. System for the military and civilians. The Network Includes about 30 satellites including 11,000 miles above the earth. So good now when i make a left turn i wont end up on a dead end on a road that doesnt exist. Progress of practical implications. Fake progress into the investigation of those scandals we have been covering at the valentines Vets Administration this week. You may have seen the hearings where the shinseki sat to undersecretary dr. Robert petzel, the implication was that petzel was being fired as a way to hold someone accountable for the deaths of up to 40 veterans due to negligence at the v. A. It turns out thats not what actually happened. He wasnt fired . No. He wasnt the fall guy, the other shoe was dropping . Finally accountability at the v. A. . It turns out if you dig into press releases from the falling of last year, he was set to retire anyway in 2014. In fact, here is an excerpt from that press release back in september of 2013. Following a 40 year career serving veterans as a v. A. Physician, teacher and administrator, dr. Robert petty zell will retire in 2014 as planned following a four year tenure as undersecretary for health. The administration knew it it just pushed him out the door perhaps a little bit early. In the end he retired. He said im going to leave. Retiring anyway. This apparent scandal just seems to be getting deeper and deeper and deeper. And the replacement who has been tapped, jeffrey morosky hospital at hospital in chicago allegations of secret waiting lists there. Should be looked into as connection. Jonathan karl pressed jay carney on this and said are you saying that this only has to do with this Phoenix Office . And he is pressing him on this pretty hard did. You think abc was going to cover it . You think maybe they would. They only gave 30 seconds to this story last night. But, so if its just another phony scandal . Is that what they are trying to say . Following a very familiar. Irs, nasa or failures of the obamacare web site. And the president comes out as and poses as very empathetic figure. Angry, people will be held accountable. Not acceptable. Were not going to let this happen. That play play indicates the pla indicates the press. This is the president s first reaction to the irs scandal. Inexcusable and americans have a right to be angry about it and i am angry about it i will not tolerate this kind of behavior in any agency but especially in the irs given the power that it has and the reach that it has and all of our lives. The government generally has to conduct itself in a way that is true to the public trust, that is especially for the irs. The irs commissioner at the time Stephan Miller was term limited but he was forced out. Term limited. A familiar script there. He had no choice. He was term limited. He had to leave that particular position. Now, in fairness he wanted to then come back and be Deputy Commissioner and finish out his days at the irs but is he not allowed to do that anymore. This is a larger pattern. You are term limited. This is a pattern where something happens, he presses outrage. He did it with the irs and then about three months later he is saying that this is a phony scandal. There wasnt a smidgen of corruption as if the past has never happened. We have not had a single example of a significant high level official at any of these scendles, benghazi, irs, the a. P. , the rosen scandal, any of these, at all. And it looks as if you can simply sail through. There is zero accountability. This administration loves the word accountability. It has never actually exercised it. Its really simple. Here is how you know in washington which someone is being held accountable. When the Justice Department. The feds, the fbi open an investigation into wrpg dag. That should have been immediately with the irs scandal and v. A. Scandal. Cooking the books is a federal crime. Its a felony and eric holder, the attorney general has taken a pass. Maybe somebody doesnt need to lose their job. Maybe somebody needs to go to jail it is familiar with the irs and v. A. Scandal as well. That its just limited to just phoenix or its just limited you remember with the irs to that office in ohio. Cincinnati office. When i final even more troubling the idea not only are people losing their jobs but they are being promoted. Moved to different offices. Put under a rug. Move you to a different state maybe no noe one will notice. How many have been promoted to different positions . Ronald reagan said. This its impossible to fire anybody. It remains true you are more likely to die in your job as a federal employee of Natural Causes than you are to be fired. More on this story as it unfolds this morning on the show. You can email us friends at a foxandfriends. Com. And we will dive into that a little bit further. Rick reichmuth is standing by. Where is rick . So patient this morning. 6 feet away. Good morning, rick. Good morning. How is it going . Clayton was talking about your calves earlier. Do you want to show everybody . You have fabulous calves. You and i are are going toe to toe. Just so you know my friends in high School Called them cows. Thats awesome. It wasnt necessarily there you go,icallyton. Clayton. Rings of fire. light those on fire im really good at avoiding that. Jumping through the fire really quickly. You would be good at that. We have been talking about california all week long because of the fires there conditions improving all these temperatures along the coast. Much cooler. On shore flow. That means the wind moves across the water. Bringing in more moist air not rain unfortunately but at least more humidity in the air and that will help conditions. Next five days, things looking. Better. Again no rain, low temperatures, higher humidity. Thats all good news. Temperaturewise, when its that hot some places usually much colder some place. Take a look at this. Temperatures across the northern plains. That cold air is there at least for another day. We will start to see some warming up pretty quickly. Little bit of rain across parts of the Tennessee Valley and very heavy rain still this morning across places like boston and much of rain. This tropical plume of moisture is about to be out of here. All the flooding we have seen across the eastern he seaboard that will be gone and replace it with pretty clear skies. Temperatures 105 in phoenix, clayton. Its a dry heat. 1105 . Really thats the time of year. Pretty steamy for may. Thanks, rick. Coming up here on the show. Democrats calling a congressional candidate who is also an iraq war veteran a coward . Is that over the line even in politics . Our political weighs in next. Father and daughter sharing the stage on a big day. This one is extra special. Amazing actually. We will tell you why. Stay tuned. I make a lot of purchases for my business. And i get a lot in return with ink plus from chase like 60,000 bonus points when i spent 5,000 in the first 3 months after i opened my account.

Top three tools hammer, screwdriver, front loader. Happiness is a driveover mower deck. A john deere dealer can teach tractors to anybody. [ don ] in the right hands, an imatch quickhitch could probably cure most of the worlds problems. [ male announcer ] thats how we run, and nothing runs like a deere. Visit your dealer or johndeere. Com 1family. I was proud to serve with my heroes. People willing to lay down everything protection of our constitution, liberties. Honored to serve and i certainly dont want to be mischaracterized of who i am and what i am about. Well, thats new york state senator and army veteran lee zelden. Is he under attack from the Congressional Campaign committee. The Committee Posted this of zelden as the cowardly lion from the wizard of oz. Is his service game . Tamara holder, welcome, this seems a little over the top considering unlike most candidates for office zelden actually served his country in uniform a coward . I think the choice of words is definitely not appropriate. But just because you served does not mean that you are are free from being attacked for political reasons. I mean, the guy is running for office. He has been attacked by his own party for supporting obamacare. And just because you have served, which is a wonderful thing by the way, i mean i have a grandfather who served. It does not mean that you are just free from all political attack whatsoever. So, amber, i think everyone would agree with that strict point, serving in uniform doesnt indemnify you against criticism, but this goes to his character. This specific criticism is that is he is a coward. Clearly, thats an attempt to undermine the power of his military service, no . It is. This is going beyond a cheap shot. Its unprofessional and its ignorant. They are attacking this guy they are attacking zeldens character. Thats why this is so important that what i want to say to mark bremmer, who is hiding behind twitter, im not saying you volunteer to go to iraq and leave your family for a year and put yourself in harms way and the sacrifices that go along with it i mean, this guy wouldnt know selfless sacrifices were if it slapped him in the face. Yeah. I mean, tamara, why coward . Of all things you could call someone, a coward. You think about how cowardly most politicians are,. You just used the word. No, no. I would say of all politicians to call cowardly, the man who serves his country in iraq would seem last on the list, no . I personally do not agree with using the word coward for somebody who has served in a war. I think it is a poor choice of words. But i also dont think that they were targeting him as as a coward because of how he senksd our country. That is off limits they didnt attack him for those reasons that he was a poor soldier. The other day you saw the Senate Majority leader called someone antiamerican. Why not explain we you oppose what they believe rather than who you are. This is politics, tucker. You understand. This this there is headlines. You put things in that strike or cause attention. And thats exactly what happened here. It was a poor choice of words for a veteran. But there have been plenty of politicians who have been called cowards who havent served and they get away with it i think that when you choose the veteran you call him that its not a good idea. Amber, the last one goes to you. I dont get why democrats at this point havent figured out that it doesnt work attacking these veterans who have servedselflessly and they continue to come home and serve their country through running for office. We saw it with tom cotton when mark prior attacked him and now we see it again. Dont protect the services that allow these people the freedom to say whatever they want in america. That sounds like a a fair statement. Thank you both for joining us cant punish everyone for senior skip day, right . Wrong. One school taking an entire class and not backing down. How do you think that is going over . We have got details on that. Plus, more on the popular sleep medication lunesta, it turns out it gravely impairs your driving the next day.

Crews are heading to the northeastern part of the country to search for any survivors. A surprise challenge to one of the most controversial practices at gitmo for the first time a federal judge ordering the military to stop force feeding a hunger striking prisoner. The order will remain in place until a hearing next week. The f. D. A. Is issuing a warning about the popular sleep aid drug lunesta cutting recommended dosage in half because it says it causes the impairment to driving skills memory and coordination. As long as 11 hours after the drug is taken. Just how dangerous is it to be drowsy behind the wheel . You have figured that out. You did some testing on this . I got down behind the wheel at Virginia Tech and boy was it a mess. Take a look at this. Okay. I just landed. Didnt have much to no sleeping. No sleeping allowed. See how long this could last. How many episodes of walking dead i could watch. I didnt get a lot of sleep last night. Had me up super late. Jeff, hi, clayton, nice to meet. You what is this car measuring. Show me what we can could sitting in this car. See here event recorder right here. Continuous data. Has actually two cameras in it. A camera focused on your face and camera focused on the roadway. Is the foot pedal down here in case something bad happens im going to take control of the car so he we dont get in a crash. All right. Lets get. In lets try. This. Try to maintain 35. Are you having trouble . Just a little bit, yeah. Try to maintain 35. Try to keep it at 35. Try to keep it at 35 as best you can. All right. I keep having trouble trying to maintain my speed on the road. Worst thing about this road its a typical road in america. Kind of boring. How you could see that monday nated news looking at the roadway falling asleep. Well in the 70 minutes that i was on the smart road. The researchers marked 24 instances in which i displayed diminished driving ability, once every three minutes. Swerving, head bobbing, moving. We will go back and see what we found now. So what are we looking at here . Is this what you use to monitor me while i was out driving . Yeah. This is exactly what we used, called the mask. What its looking at right now, what it is measure something facial features, contrasts on your face. Look at your eyes, can tell whether open or closed. Can also assess your head position. The mask picks up head movements hard to detect on the surface like the way my head is dipping here and eyes are strange to stay open here. Most Drowsy Driving conditions are seen by the naked eye. I dont know if you remember i had to prompt you many times maintaining 35 Miles Per Hour. A vigilant test. Lane position going off the road. That happened a couple of times that i was going off the road . Yes. Several times. You see a lot of seat movements. So as you said instead of having your hands the characteristic 6 and 9. You kind of put them at 1 and 12 almost, 3 and 4. Thats a characteristic sign of essentially either fatigue or drowsiness. No more Drowsy Driving for me, jeff. Today Drowsy Driving causes more than 100,000 crashes a year. Its a complex problem for americans with a very simple solution. There is only one thing that can help you out, thats getting a restful nights sleep. Lunesta backing off that dosage. Next day good nights rest. Lunesta the next day effect still there. 11 hours after you take it still having problems with coordination and memory and driving skills like that right there. So scary though that people were reporting feeling like they are alert. Like oh im just fine. Funny though if you eat two pieces of pizza and snickers bar you will pass out. The overload will put knew a coma from which you will not awake. You dont even need lunesta. Of course not and you feel great. Gain 40 pounds. Take two slices of pizza and call me in the morning.

First Lady Michelle obama is inviting celebrities to the white houses first ever talent show next week. People are pretty excited to perform. I heard biden has been practicing three new songs in his armpit. You guys want to hear foot loose . That would be an awesome skill. It would be awesome. We try to teach my kid already how to do that. You are trying to teach her i thought that was something when they went to kindergarten and came home and ask where did you learn that. Good parenting. Speaking of teaching kids, here is a story straight out of kindergarten in wisconsin. A father there says his daughter is being bully sod pad aboutly, again, she is 5. He believes his 5yearold is being bullied by another 5yearold so badly that he plans to take out a restraining order on the other 5yearold. Unbelievable. He says this in the restraining order now that i have done all of this. They finally took him out of the classroom my daughter is in. Its not enough. I want him removed from the School District, period. Of course the School District responding now. Here is what the spokesperson from the School District says. Threshold of what causes or what would determine when a child is moved out of a classroom. There is not a cent of allegedly, this child said i want to slit your throat and watch you bleed. Where are the parents in all of this. Where is a child, a 5yearold saying Something Like this. Thats appalling thing to say. Can you imagine why the father is so upset. On the other hand, whats the message of getting involved to this degree trying to take out a restraining order. The message when you have problems at School Parents will deal with them. The whole point of parenting is to train children to be independent. Im trying to place my son is 4. Like another year. I cant even imagine like someone talking slitting someones throat at that edge a. If my son would say this kid is threatening me when i get on the bus. And kicking and throwing rocks. Throw a punch and that will stop him. I dont know that that would stop him. What would you do . I would counsel the punch. I would be very hesitant to get involved. If i thought it was a physical threat to my son hsks i would jump in with both feet, if i thought the kid was being noxious or a bully, learn how to deal with that on their own. So they dont learn how to run to daddy all the time. I agree with that at some point though your fatherly instincts take over. The wussification of america. On the table to fine parents 100 or 200 if their kid is bullying somebody and give them misdemeanor charge. Whats bullying . In the eyes of the beholder. Threatening violence. On the other hand, being rude to someone bullying . Disagreeing making someone bullying . Uncomfortable, unlfd, unwelcome . Is that bullying . Too broad a desks for me. I didnt i dont believe the School District. Ff weekend on twitter is this going too far or is this just right . Let us know. Heads up. We have other stories making headlines we want to tell you about at this hour. President obama soon be taking executive action on immigration at least concerning deportation. Recent interview Homeland Security secretary jay johnson suggested that changes are coming to the deportation program. The program has become very controversial. And i told a group of sheriffs and chiefs that i met with a couple days ago that we needed a fresh start. Could that happen . I believe it will and it should. Some the expected changes include a deemphasis on enforcement against illegals with only minor offenses. How did two planes packed with people nearly clyde over hawaii in the faa is investigating this morning the april 25th incident involving the United Airlines flight and while traveling at 33,000 feet the united flight collision system went off and quickthinking pilot dropped the plane 600 feet in 60 seconds narrowly avoiding a head on collision. Just 800 feet separated the two planes. And banned from the prom over senior skip day . Parents and students at a lawrence, Massachusetts High School outraged after seniors who skipped are told they cant go to their own prom. The schools dean allowing younger classes to attend using the thousands of dollars seniors raised for the dance. Juniors and sophomores taking this money and its like we fund raised money. For seniors we worked so hard and brought in the college we have done everything. Administrators say they warned students not to skip but more than half of the schools 64 seniors did anyway. Some parents say they should be punished in some other way. And graduation twice as nice for this family this weekend. A father and daughter set to earn their degrees from Kansas University tomorrow.

I think that every Colorado State official should be arrested, convicted, for the aiding and abetting of the education of drug dealers, drug pushers, and the key thrown away. This type of education does nothing but further the destruction of families and homes and educating individuals for a bunch of nonsense and drug dealing and drug pushing. You know, support sars look, its legal there and its a profession. Horty cull tur. I can go to college, learn the cultivation, proper irrigation and growing of marijuana, turn it into a career. How is it any different than going out and cultivating strawberries or corn . You know, i was thinking what would this education accomplish . What could they do with such an education . Well, you know, when you take a look at colorado and the problems that theyre having in Drug Trafficking, maybe this is a good idea for colorado. Drug trafficking is very heavy in colorado. The dea and the el paso Intelligence Report in 2012, 2. 5 pounds of marijuana that was seized leaving colorado. In kansas, michele linehart, the head cop of dea, spoke to a committee stating that there are 61 increase in Drug Trafficking and marijuana in colorado, then you have a shieriff in nebraska that wants to sue the pants off colorado for the increase of drugs going into nebraska. So when we take a look at this education, maybe thats exactly what theyre going to do as if colorado need more help with drug traffickers. Bishop allen, do you see any irony in this . Isnt college a place where people typically go to get smarter and studies have been done that smoking marijuana actually lowers your iq . First of all, there is no curriculum thats offered at this school that talks about the drug harms or has Scientific Evidence about the effects of drugs. It is ironic that this college would teach a curriculum that lowers the iq of our children from 5 to 8 . It is amazing that this college, which is a Higher Learning, you know college is supposed to be for Higher Learning education but this college is teaching individuals on a drug that is going to cause brain damage in our children, exacerbate depression. This is a bad idea. Bishop ron allen, head of the international faithbased coalition and a former drug addict himself. Thanks for joining us.

Fires rage in california but this morning a miracle for a popular christian singer as the flames raged around her home, she asked for prayers and look at what happened next. The fire stopped just feet from her house. And the second in command at Veterans Affairs stepping down. Not because he didnt do his job. Nope. He was set to retire anyway. More fake accountability from the Obama Administration. We got the whole story coming up. Youre fired. Youre already leaving. Oh, okay. No not snakes on a plane. All those security scenarios we ran, im smack in the middle of one we didnt think. Frightening. How a snake on a runway kept a plane grounded. Mornings like runways are better with friends. I have no idea. I just read it. What does that mean . Gavin, explain that to me. Roll it. When the going gets tough the tough get going when the going gets rough the tough get rough we will be transforming into greek gods and goddesses some of us later in the show. Some of us already are, anna. Races on our plaza at 48th and 6th, come watch us make a fool of ourselves. Im facing off against anna and im going to pretend that out of chivalry i wont compete with her i was wondering how you would play that. Im going to play it like, you know what, anna, give you a pass, help you out a little bit. I will help you over the wall. Put your foot in there. I will need your lep so bad. Playing like toys or games with your kids. Oh, you beat me. Except except you actually just got crushed in checkers by your 5yearold. Anna is probably going to crush you. Of course shes going to crush me. Im up against rick later in the show. He works out like anna does, four hours in a day, hes going to crush me as well. Stay tuned for that. Speaking of unbelievable the story weve been following for the last several weeks, the scandals at the va, veterans dying because of incompetence and federal employees who didnt care about their welfare. This has exploded in the face of the Obama Administration and in response if you were paying attention this week, you may have noticed the man sitting next to general shinseki, the head of the va apparently fired, the white house releasing a press release, saying he was on his way out after 40 years. Sitting next to him there, his name is robert petzel, the undersecretary for health he apparently was the first fall guy, the other shoe to drop if you read reports yesterday. He was fired, he was gone, the first person to fall as a victim of this scandal. But it turns out if you go back to this press release from september of 2013, he was set to retire in 2014 anyway. Heres an excerpt from that press release last year. Take a look, following a 40year career serving veterans as a va physician, teacher and administrator, dr. Robert petzel will retire in 2014 as planned, following a fouryear tenure as under secretary for health. Phony outrage. It seems wild that there was ever a thought that the media wouldnt pick this up. It came out in a press release in 2013 where we got that from. They hoped that people dont notice an then promote individuals, right . They remove them from situations. They remove them from Washington State or oregon and shuttle them down to phoenix where weve had other issues. Folks in this administration thats related to three or four scandals have not been fired. You know who has felt the sting . Are whistleblowers. People with the courage to come forward and tell the public whats actually happening at the va, among them a physician called jose mathews, in the st. Louis office of the va, he exposed some remarkable misdeeds there in a really articulate way. Watch this. What really bothered me was that this, you know, this delay was a direct result of this extremely low sense of caring for patients. They all got bonuses, you know, so thats the sad part because, you know, in reality, were really not doing a good job. It shows up on paper as if we are. I think they have some form of moral blindness or something. Theyre not able to see that this is not right. What were doing is not right. So he loses his job. When you got this culture of corruption of falsifying documents and forging numbers and then if you speak out youre going to lose your job, how are we ever going to get decrept care for our veterans who put themselves on the front lines under the condition they think theyre going to be taken care of when they come home. The fact shinseki is still in charge, he was asked whether he should be forced out. If the president thinks im still honoring our veterans and doing well by them then i will stick around and do that. Hes been in charge of this, 154 billion they have received since 2006. The problem and no one is even talking about this, the doctor shortage theyre facing. Why were they having to do this in the first place. If youre in charge of that you hire more primary care physicians. Theyve seen a 50 increase in the number of veteran who is need care as a result of iraq and afghanistan and fewer than 10 increase in primary care physicians that theyve hired. They have the money to do it. Which is probably why there have been calls by so many lawmakers for shinseki to lose his job or to step down, but it doesnt appear that thats going to be happening. The amazing thing is on the left, for many years now, and paul krugman has been leading this charge, the va has been held up as an example of the health care we want in this system, a single payer system run by the government, and this is the fruit of that. This is the foreshadowing of obama care im afraid. I hope that we shuttling of records back and forth. I hope we are not going to see stories like this that apply to all of us. How are they going to treat you. Weve seen that under obama care. Doctors wanting to get out of the business. If you cant hire doctors in the va, are you going to be able to hire them under obama care . Let us know your thoughts on that. Other stories making headlines on your saturday.

Here we go, temperatures today across areas of california much better. An onshore flow now, thats what you need to see, increases humidity level. It does not bring any rain but humidity levels go up and the temperatures go down and that is great news and the strong winds die down. Conditions for at least stopping those fires certainly improved. The ongoing drought, the systemic problem is not going anywhere unfortunately. Temps across the country looking pretty cool.

The Supreme Court is set to decide a case that could affect every employees union in the country. An illinois mom who cares for her disabled son at home is fighting to stop the sieu and others to prevent them from taking her dues out of her sons Social Security check. Joining me is the illinois mom the lead plaintiff in the case, pam harris. Thanks for joining us this morning. Good morning, tucker. Thank you for having me. So, as i understand it, the governor of illinois, pat quinn, issued an executive order that would allow Home Health Care workers in your state to organize and that would in effect take money from your sons care and send it to a labor union. Do i have that right . You have that exactly correct. At the heart of harris v. Quinn are moms fighting to stop illinoiss governor pat quinn from forcing us to unionize and then taking medicaid funding intended to provide for the care of our adult sons and daughters and giving that money to the seiu. Now the seiu probably not surprisingly has been a large and consistent donor to governor quinns campaigns, is that correct . Thats very correct. Not only in terms of campaign dollars, but also that very important boots on the ground, doortodoor campaigning. So at one point, and i was stunned to read this, the state somehow gave your home address to organizers from the union who visited you at home . Is that true . Thats exactly how we found out abou order. Not from governor quinn. But from the seiu when they came to our doors. In my instance, they came to my door, on an early sunday morning, knocked on the door, and told me that the governor had given them my name, my address, told them that my son is a participant in the medicaid waiver. What an intrusion this was. What an intrusion. When the other Public Sector union asked, he gave them our fames and addresses as well. Pretty striking. For whatever its worth im not against organized labor, but in this case it seems like an inside deal to me. The governor takes money from the union and then directs public funds to that union. There doesnt seem to be any freedom of choice involved in that transaction. It seems like a completely closed loop. Is that right . Thats exactly right. Youve got it exactly correct. The last step, the last option available to us, was filing a lawsuit to stop this. There was a union election. Overwhelmingly, two to one, we voted for no union. 75 of these waiver participants, these men and women with significant disabilities, have a Family Member who provides their care. Right. We went to governor quinn. We asked him to rescind this executive order and he refused. The only other option was to file a lawsuit and now, as you mentioned, it was heard by the Supreme Court and were waiting their decision. Interesting. Well, good luck. This is a super interesting case and an important one, not just for you and your family, but for the rest of the country, it will set a precedent that will affect an awful lot of people. Thanks for joining us this morning. Thank you, tucker. Thank you very much. Coming up, precipitation drug abuse is completely out of control, especially in some parts of this country.

They and their daughter joins us now. Thanks for joining us. What a beautiful family you are. La keisha, you have had to say goodbye to your husband some five times, five deployments. How hard has that been for you and how have you overcome . Well, its very difficult when our loved ones deploy. They miss birthdays, and christmas and thanksgiving and a lot of special moments in between. I really lean on my military community, the Military Spouse community, my friends and family, to sort of help get me through that time period. Weve got a botch lors degree in bachelors degree in journalism, youre currently working on a Second Degree in marketing, incredible while you have a kid here and baby on the way in august, very impressive. Yes. Gunnery sergeant cole, what made you decide to nominate your lovely wife . Well, my wife she works very hard and im extremely proud of her. This is a great opportunity to put her in for something and give her an opportunity for her to be recognized for the extraordinary work that i see her do all the time. And some of that extraordinary work is that youve been able to start your own business and youre also helping out other spouses of military members. Lakeisha what has some of your volunteer work entailed . With my boutique, she shank, you can find us at sheswank. Com i mentor other spouses who hand make items and give them the opportunity to sell them in my store. We provide workshops on marketing, social media, accounting, and things like that. Just different provide them information to help grow their business. I imagine you want to stay busy while your loved ones are away, keep your mind occupied a bit. How has that helped you be a better mother, do you think, to be selfemployed like that . Well, it gives me the flexibility to spend more time with my family. I get to make my schedule. I still get the opportunity to pick up my daughter from school and take her to her sporting events and attend various functions, so being selfemployed really just gives me more time to spend with my family. Callie what do you think about mom winning this award . I feel happy. You should certainly be proud of her. Guys, thank you so much. What a lovely family you are. We really appreciate you being here. Thank you for having us. Have a great day. 25 minutes after the hour. And congratulations them.

Because if theres anything people do well under pressure, its texting. Theres a robbery at my horse. Rubbery at my horse. Thats right. People will be able to text 911, that way if youre driving and you see an accident you can cause another accident. The irony. Because it turns out in Allegheny County its already real. In pennsylvania where texting while driving has been outlawed since 2012, they just implemented this new 911 Texting Service out in Allegheny County, the home of pittsburgh. They received their first text to the 911 center but it came from an unlikely place. They have a way to tell where it came from and the person was actually driving as they were texting 911, even though its been illegal for two years. They saw a drunk driver and texted. Im assuming the person who texted said im driving. No. They found out the text was from a driver through technological means. Thats a little spooky. They can try an gu late and see the person was on the highway. They are expanding their services, sprint, at t, tmobile, verizon. Thats how waze works. The driving app. Theyre tracking you constantly. All of those services know where you are and how fast youre moving. Moving more than 20 Miles Per Hour they know youre in a car. Some of the apps too, you are expected to give your content, your feedback about accidents that you see around you. Its just becoming part of our culture that we text and drive despite all the psas showing how dangerous it can be, some cases even more dangerous than driving while intoxicated under alcohol or drugs. Thats the irony. This guy was texting to report a drunk driver while driving. Texting while driving reported to be about as dangerous as drinking while driving. So is eating while driving. Just being honest. Putting on your makeup while driving. One of my friends got in an accident while leaning over to get a hash brown it was not funny. He crashed into a telephone pole. One of your friends did that . Right. The hash brown was delicious, by the way. Do you think texting 911 is a good thing . It probably is, isnt it . I think it is. Its an expansion of the service. Any time youre expanding the service for people who are hearing impaired or speech impaired who cant make a phone call if they are suffering something. See something say something. Text more quickly. Idea for the government to encourage you to tattle on other people and track your location while you do it. Maybe thats a go ahead idea. Let us know ff weekend, find us on twitter at ffweekend.

They say just moments before he robbed a drug store taking several pill bottles which had a gps tracker hidden inside. The nypd saying cato was wanted on four other drug store robberies.

Cassidy wall and her 5yearold sister were outside of their erie home playing when suddenly a car fleeing police, turns the corner and spin out of control. Cassidy didnt get out of the way in time and she was hit. When i saw the video, every time i thought about it, i started crying because it hurted my feelings and i didnt like what i saw. Cassidy was treated for a concussion. Shes supposed to be okay, though. And the two men inside the car were arrested. Terrible video there.

Its just a matter of time. Maybe i will see a giant ufo this afternoon. Why are you dressed like that, rick . Im wearing the spartan race shirt youre going to be wearing in a second too, tucker. Im wearing my Trinity College workout clothes, sorry. And your tie with ducks or boats on it. Tank top for tucker. Make sure its sleeveless. Get out here because were going to talk to the spartan race guys in a second. Lets talk about your weather as youre waking up. Go to the weather maps. Show you whats going on. Big story all week long and this weekend, a much calmer situation. Good timing if you want calmer, nicer weather, its good if its on the weekend. Pick your place across the northeast. As the day progresses, the main brunt of all that moisture is going to move off towards the eastern part of maine. There will be some scattered spotty showers and temps will be a little cooler but overall a pretty nice day and towards the northeast. The southeast, it has been cool, very cool morning, and youre going to have a cooler day, pretty comfortable but not feeling summer like at all. The temps will warm up this week, get ready. Towards the northern plains, take a look at your temps as youre waking pup a very cool morning. Snow across illinois. Things are warming up and Getting Better this week. Certainly drying out. Across the west where it has been so incredibly warm across parts of Southern California, temps cooling down along the coast which is great news, but we will warm things up across the deserts getting to the 90ness vegas, triple digits around phoenix, and all those warm temperatures are going to spread across texas and oklahoma pan handle over the next couple days. When will the warm weather come here to stay . If we dont have a hot summer in the northeast i will be fine with that. That hot, muggy northeast summer is no fun. Its a lifechanging race, one designed to push its participants to the limit. We brought the spartan race to our plaza. You see it behind us. Were going to be getting in on the action in just a bit. The founder of it, joe, joins us now. And youre here to talk a little bit about this. Where did you get this idea . It seems like only elite athletes would be able to do this. This trend has caught on across the country. I was on a 12hour snowshoe hike and it popped into my head with a friend of mine we needed to create a race different than any other race in the world. Something that would purposely break people, but while doing that would transform them. You said purposely break people. Break people. Push them to the edge. Like diamonds are made from coal under pressure. People only change when theyre up against the wall, when theyre under pressure. If you have a very comfortable life, if youre sitting on the couch eating popcorn watching the show right now, youre not going to change. We only change when things are against us. And so thats what this is meant to do. And thats what is so cool about this. You see females doing this, of all shapes and sizes. You see different ages, races. It spans the gamut really. How did you design this to not just be for elite athletes . Thats the amazing thing. Only 10 of our athletes are elite. 90 are couch potatoes just off the couch. Weve had 700pound men, 700pound guy compete in the race. Took them a lot longer than the 100 pound male or female, but they get it done. Its doable. Most of the people that sign up get it done. Youve written a book. We wrote a book. Tell us what people can find in this book and what it talks about . The book touches on the spartan race. The book is about life lessons, how to be successful in business, how to be successful in relationships, how to just get stuff done in life. Eve ive been writing this book for 30 years in my head. Ive been ins business since i was 8 years old. Sold fireworks to get going. There were simple techniques we could apply to get ahead. Thats what this book is about. We have to go. Give us two tips.

Thanks, anna. Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki has made it clear that hes not stepping down. Take a listen. Would you explain to me, after knowing all this information, why you should not resign . Well, ill tell you, senator, that i came here to make things better for veterans. This is not a job. Im here to accomplish a mission that i think they critically deserve and need. Well, he may not be going anywhere but now the number two guy at the va is out. Dr. Robert petzel announced his resignation but it turns out he was supposed to retire anyway. So is anyone really being held accountable in all this. Ryan is an iraq war veteran and deputy legislative director of veterans of foreign wars and testified at the hearing on thursday. He joins us this morning. Ryan, nice to see you this morning. Thank you, clayton. What do you think should have been the response from secretary shinseki . Well, we think the response from the department of Veterans Affairs should have been swift accountability and swift justice for the families that may have been victim of the allegations that have come out in recent weeks. This is a very serious issue. As a veteran myself who uses the Va Health Care system, its deeply upsetting and its upsetting to the members of the veterans of foreign wars that any veteran would be denied care or scheduling systems would be games around the country. One of the things you said at the hearings, members of the vfw, the families are outraged and want answers. What sorts of questions were asked at the hearing that would provide answers and solace to those families . One of the questions that i responded to had to do with accountability of va. What are some of the things that you would change. Now we saw yesterday that dr. Petzel turns in his resignation. But one of the issues that i brought up was accountability up and down the chain. We know that its difficult to sanction a va employee or underperforming employee and then if a va employee quits, is fired or retires, it can take six months to a year to find an adequate replacement. Our concern is, when you have this kind of culture of accountability, are there tradeoffs being made at the Management Level . Thats a great question. So many things that stick out to me, one of which is this doctor shortage. Did any of that really get addressed at the hearings this week, the question of whether or not they could handle the 50 increase in veterans issues, needing to see primary care physician, when theyve only seen an increase of under 10 of doctors added to the rolls . You can fire a few people, but you have to hire doctors. Absolutely. This is something that my colleagues and i who were on the panel of veterans organizations kept talking about. Do we have the proper resources for the department of Veterans Affairs. Not only that, are we using the resources we have sufficiently. We need frontline troops in this battle. We need health care practitioners. We need the capacity to serve the influx of iraq and afghanistan veterans who are coming back every day. We know the military is downsizing. Once we are out of afghanistan and that means theres going to be another influx of veterans into the Va Health Care system. Absolutely right. Youve seen, of course, the iraq war and afghanistan, thats why we saw this massive influx of new patients there. My question is, though, resources, theyve seen a 50 increase in the amount of money that theyve received. Where is that money going . Exactly. Thats one of the questions that we posed to the senate Veterans Affairs committee and oproposed to va directly. Our managers out in the field do they feel comfortable asking for help when they need it . Again, this comes back to the culture of accountability. If you have an area thats strugglings, an area with a high veteran population like phoenix, texas, california, florida, do these Health Care Managers have feel comfortable asking for help, coming back and saying look we need help down here, we need more doctors, more Mental Health practicers, our veterans are waiting too long for care and this absolutely is unsatisfactory. To say they dont have the money or resources, i dont buy it. Ry ryan, nice to see you this morning. Thanks for holding their feet to the fire on this one. Well keep at it. The king of pop lives on. Michael jackson taking the stage once again not without a little controversy. His new album is out. Yeah, no joke. In a country illegally convicted of a violent crime.

Theyre mudders, kidnappers, not to mention in our country illegal. And even though they were here and detained while awaiting the outcome of deportation proceedings, in 2013 over 36,000 of them all convicted criminals ended back up on our countrys streets released by the Obama Administration. So why would i. C. E. Let them go . We asked fox news legal analyst and defense attorney who join us now for a fair and balanced debate. Arthur, i know youre game for the defense of anything. I never signed up for any fair and balanced debate by the way. These 36,000 people were actually released with some form of like super vision or signing on the dotted line that theyll come back. Earlier in the year there were 68,000 that were just released, bye, see you later. What happened with the 68,000 is even worse. Heres the deal. Totally fair point. The illegal alien murderers have signed a document promising theyll be good and come back. And thats good as gold. What ends up happening is there is some discretion. When you have Illegal Immigrants that come over here and commit crimes, theyve also started fami familie families. I. C. E. Is going to look at the cases and see who we trust to stay in the u. S. And who do we dont. Why is it good for us to allow people who committed murder to stay here illegally . Why dont we put them on the first bus back to their country . We want to punish them for the murder. They shouldnt be sit back out any punishment for the crimes they committed, number one. Number two, a lot of these guys who were released did have to wear gps bracelets and are out there on bail, the same as any of the rest of us that were arrested. But theyre not u. S. Citizens. I agree with you. The defendant gets arrested, hes illegal and hes out on the street. I was protesting. I agree with you. And if you send them back without them being punished here, they will be back in the United States. And the only thing we have to grab hold of them is the warrant from them running away in the first place. Its a flow. You cant just solve the problem. Part of it is the countries from which they come, theyre not cooperating. Heres a statement from i. C. E. Timp cli those with less priority crimes, released. What does that mean. Thats money. We have a final politics. No. No. When they say resources no tucker. Theres a limited pool of money to house these people, to watch these people, to feed these people. Its priorities. Theyll spend whatever it takes on certain issues youre correct. But theyre taking a lot of crap from groups who are opposed to any type of immigration reform. If someone gets convicted of drunk driving and they have a family hear, those are the people that are more likely to not get deported. Thanks a lot. Appreciate it.

Rainy season is over, now were into the dry season. This is just getting worse. Were back to you guys inside. Clay, do you do any more moves . No. I pulled something. Governor Mike Huckabee is here to talk to us this morning. Nice to see you. Im not dancing for you. That would be good. I dont think so. What do you think of the Obama Administration sort of false accountability here. He was going retire anyway and the fact is youre not going to fix something that is a systemic problem by simply firing somebody. If you have an institutional problem which we clearly have in the va because this is spread over many facilities, youre going to have to change the culture of how this operation is run. Thats what theyre not addressing. Thats what has to be addressed. How do you change the culture . On the one hand you have it seems like a systemic problem where you are all of these different offices where they were cooking the books, basically saying that you were tiebl get an appointment when you werent. But on the other hand, you have a doctor shortage. So they went to great length to cook the books, they spent more time doing that, to do what was wrong instead of do what was right, hiring new doctors. It starts at the top and you fund what youre going to get it done. If you dont fund it accurately, the employees are going to work the system. You may be asking them to do the impossible. But you also create incentives from the very bottom of the food chain all the way to the top. You give employees power to report things that are wrong. You dont fire them or get them in trouble over pit. You empower them for doing right rather than punish them for doing right. When i say systemic, having run a Large Organization like a state government, when you have something that is going wrong, you dont just fire the director. What you do is go down to the very delivery level of service and you find out, you ask those people, why arent you doing it right and then you empower them to do whats right and you pay them well for it. And you try to figure out which one is worse though, with secretary shinseki, if he didnt know about this, its so wide spread, where theyre allegedly cooking the books. Its happening without him knowing or did he know . Which one is worse. And where is the president on all of this . I think when people say lets fire shinseki, the real question is who is he firing . Where is he taking his authority to go down into the system and holding mid level managers and other people within the system accountable. You didnt just say were going to fire the guy at the top. Find out what the systemic problem is. Why are the employees doing what theyre doing. Why are doctors clocking out after their eighthour shift even if theyve got a guy scream in pain begging for help. When you find that out, figure out why the culture was created and change the culture and everyone who cant adapt to it, they get fired. Thats how you do it. What do you make of the news this week that the Obama Administration has released from custody thousands of illegal aliens criminal records, murder records, kidnapping, drunk driving . How could this have happened . It seems more than just incompetence . I dont know if they thought it was going to be a budget saver and they could say theyve made great roads in rehabilitating prisoners. But when you turn rapist as murderers out in mass, were going to turn them out on the streets, there are a lot of people in America Today who are in harms way and in danger because of this ridiculous decision. It will bite them in the end the first time that one is injured, hurt or rape by someone who has been let out with no just cause whatsoever. Take a look at the numbers. 193 homicide, 1934 homicide, 426 sexual assaults and 303 kidnappings. These are convictions here. Back on the streets. These arent the boys you bring home to momma and these are the people you let out. A prison director that worked for me said, the problem is we lock up a lot of people that were mad at rather than the people were afraid of. These are the people were afraid of. These are the people that need to be locked. Not to nonviolent drug offenders who need to be in rehab instead of prison. You can debate how there should be a path way to citizenship or not but these guys need a pathway straight out of the country. Theres no pathway to citizenship for convicted felons who are here illegally to begin with. Their pathway is find out where they came from and send them back. I guarantee you that americans who commit crimes in other countries arent welcome to pathway to citizenship. They dont get food stamps in mexico . They dont get jack in mexico. The governor is going to stick around for this story. Take a look. I dont think that theres any argument about that. Okay and youre going to leave.

Its being pushed in spaces. Has he been kissing his wife, would it have bothered you . Host aim my kushner left the set of defending her views and now shes getting death threats. Your thoughts on seeing this. Theres a genuine understanding. Tolerance means agreement with the political left. There is no such thing as diversity. It means uniformity. And if you dont agree with the agenda, then youre a bigot and a hart and thats not true. Another example of a double standard. Lets punish people because they have a personal view, not because theyre pushing it on somebody. And i think its evidence of a very crazy culture. We did have that Television Host from dallas on the news channel. So take a listen to what she had to say about the whole thing. Im shocked at the outlandish and most if i told you we couldnt put it on the air. I cant put it on the air. Death threats, rape threats, petitions to be fired. Its insane. And all it is, its a voice screaming out against something that for me was traditional views. You know, it seems to me, its wrong to hate anybody unless you want to hate a christian because of their views and then its perfectly okay, its defensible and its the christian who is at fault. Its a shocking thing and its happened very quickly in our culture. I wish the left would be consistent and say that all views are welcome, free speech means we want more people to talk, not fewer and we dont want to shut people up.

Fencer, over to you. Thank you. A fencing club in north dakota was forced off campus because the school says it violates the weapons policy. Patrick dur kin is the founder of the fencing academy. He says what the school did was unexpectable. To prove your point were going to have some of your students here stab clayton directfully the chest. What will happen . Do you expect him to be gravely injured or what . Lots of blood. Were using athletic equipment. These are not real swords, an olympic sport. Is it one of the most violent olympic sports . Its one of the most safest sports. The Olympic Committee came out showing that its safer than badminton and soccer. How many severe injuries have you seen . None. So if you coached the luge, that would not be the case . Its equivalent to luge. Its 2. 5 injury rate. Is it the equipment in your sport looks scary . Thats the problem . We do have pieces of steel in our hands. The equipment we use a bullet proof. So in theory if the blade did break, you would be protected but that rarely happens. We could take your word on that but why do that when we can test it on clayton. Um going to step back and let this happen. Last rights . Give me the mask. Put this on. Who is he going to be dueling . You . Well keep it straightforward here. Should you smack him in the face with a glove . That is old school french. Were not going to do that. Were a gentlemans sport so well salute each other. Bend you knees a little bit, let me touch you for a second. And i want you to keep your knee forward and i want you to hit me in the head. You want me to hit you in the head. There you go. Very good. I like this. A little forwards, a little backwards, hit me in the head, very good. Wow, this is violent. Im hit on the head, the touch goes to the right. Let me stop you how to stop the attacker. When im cutting this direction, block my blade. These are two of the easy ways. Stab me. I want to see how this feels. Holy smokes. Am i bleeding . Yes, you are gravely injured. Patrick, the point here, this seems like a zero tolerance policy run amok. Exactly. Theyre applying it to a sport that have has no application. Youre taking away the opportunity for the athletes to learn discipline, travel the world an go orb fencing is the number two recruiting sport for ivy league schools. To take it away is a shame. It is a shame. Patrick durkin of new york athletic club, thanks for joining us this morning. Coming up, the video is unbelievable. This little girl hit during a car chase, she survived, thank god.

For the first time a federal judge ordering a military to stop feeding a hungry prisoner. Rob ford spotted posing with fans in ontario, his familys cottage is nearby. This theres also a luxurious rehab clinic in the area. The embattled leader checked into rehab after the new video was released last month allegedly showing him smoking crac crack. Shes doing some great work. A sad statistic in 2012. The department of labor found over 1400 complaints of veterans of discrimination. Now mike is leading the charge to put an end to that, signed a bill making it illegal for an employer to hire someone because of their veteran status. Nice to see you. Good morning. Why is it that we see that as a landmark case . Dont they have protections in place . Sure. Weve been having this discussion about discrimination against veterans since the vietnam war. Whats so intriguing is hes saying its illegal to discriminate and not hire a veteran. This is about the hiring process getting to the job. That is illegal. Thats the first of its kind. Thats white was so new and Ground Breaking and hopefully other states will follow. During the hiring process, that is the question and answer phase of an interview. Sure. Job interview. What sorts of things are now off the table, not allowed to ask of our veterans . Well they should not be asking you about you could have a disability that could be an obvious disability, a physical disability but ptsd is very common right now. Unemployment rate by the way is under 12 . They cant ask you about that. Unfortunately it it does happen and i have heard stories of veterans saying theyre asking about me mental state. They should not be doing that in the hiring process. Also, a lot of the National Guard members face discrimination because of the fact they have to come in, they have to leave, come back. A lot of companies are apprehensive about hiring somebody because theyre like, how much are you going to be in your job . When are you going to be leaving . Is it tro weeks . Two months . Whats going on. All of that should not be happening. So this is happening in indiana where the governor has put this into place but do you think well see this in other states across the country . Its vestest interesting. There are ten dates that say that veterans are a protected class and what that maens is theyve got the same rights as other protected classes. If youre a veteran youre alone in a protected class. But in indiana, the governor signed another initiative that basically helps them get education, veterans can go and get College Credits for things they did in the military. Again, Something Else that we really had not seen before on a state level. I can give you a hundred companies right now that want to hire veterans and many of them do. But at the same time to see the state get involved like this, to see this happen on a state level under law is what i think is so intrig intriguing. How can veterans be aware of their rights in this situation . That they should be aware of if theyre being asked, hey thats discrimination, i dont have to answer that . There are certain signs you have to look out for. Sometimes you hear the job is not available anymore and then you find out that job was available. You know, because they do it kind of a switch on you that way. Again, any discussion a about disabilities, time off, those are warning signs that the company is apprehensive about hiring you because you have a veteran especially if youre in the reserves, National Guard, things like that. Promotions if youre in a jb as well, if you say that wu were deployed and you come back and if you would have stayed in this country you would have been, in the u. S. , you would have been promoted. Say you didnt get that promotion. That is discrimination, things like that. Raises, time off, you know medical leave if you have something where you have to get treatment, maybe you have to go to the va. So sorry about that. But those are again issues and warning sines whether youre in the job or trying to get the job. Its tough to kind of quantify but it is happening out there. Good information. Appreciate it.

Captain heres a review, its worse in person. So first, some summertime foods that could be poisonous. Some of the foods were seeing more frequency over the summertime, onion and chocolate, those barbecue toppings were seeing those occur 40 in the summer more than other times in the year. You say even chiefs too . Onions are more concentrated. Give us an idea of how poisonous onions are for dogs. Half a percent of their body weight in onions can be toxic. Just a small piece of onion can be toxic. Youve got a burg on the beech with a ring of onon. And summertime weve got memorial weekend around the corner and a lot of people have cookouts and corn kobs, not a good idea. So many dogs, its sweet, its covered in butter. The dogs eat these things and they get stuck. And the average claim that we see is 1400 for surgical removal and we see a lot. Its not just corn cobs that we see, kabab skewers, you can imagine how they go through. So the corn cobs are twice as much in the summer. And keep our pets out of hot cars. Hot weather. Sitting in the car is hot. But women perspire, men sweat, dogs can do neither. The temperature goes up in the first halfhour 30 degrees in the car. You leave the dog in the car for 20 or 30 minutes and now its 110. What about people taking memorial day road trips. How long can you go in the car before letting your dog out and go to the bathroom . Its great to stop every hour if you can but thats not feasible with our road systems. If you can put watt near the car as well, let them out for a bathroom break to stretch their legs we need to make sure we keep our animals fenced in and what else . Making sure they have identification and making sure theyre microchipped. Id can come off. The microchip, they can be identified at any vet clinic. That dog is outrageous. What kind of dog is that . A poodle mix. All of these dogs are up for adoption, too. These guys are up for adoption at north shore animal league. Someone in the crew has already fallen in love.

He said in high school they called them cows because theyre so big. Weve got a segment about common core. The scandal at the v. A. Scores of veterans apparently died because of shoddy treatment they received. This has blossomed into a scandal. If youve been following it you saw the white house announced the resignation, the implication was it was forced of the number two man. The idea was he was taking the fall for the scandal. Now it turns out, no. Not at all. Hes fired, you think. Robert petzel. Hes been there 40 years. Turns out he was going to be retiring this year any way after a 40year career. They conveniently made it look like he was being fired. Here is a cutout from a press release issued back in september. This is september of 2013. It reads, following a 40year career serving veterans as a v. A. Physician, teacher and administrator, dr. Robert a. Petzel will retire in 2014 as planned, following a fouryear tenure as under secretary of health. Did they think we wouldnt find this press release that was released to the press. His replacement, a doctor at the heinz v. A. Hospital near chicago, there are some allegations there about secret waiting lists. At the moment its some sort of association, but ought to be looked into. Somebody needs to possibly be losing their jobs, possibly going to jail. We had an iraq war veteran on our show earlier and he said we certainly need accountability. We think the 0 response should have been swift accountability and swift justice for the families that may have been victims of the allegations. We know it is very difficult to sanction a v. A. Employee or under performing employee. If they quit or are fired, it can take six months to a year to find an adequate replacement. When you have this kind of culture of accountability, are there tradeoffs being made at the Management Level . Theres a question we know the answer to. You cant fire anyone from the federal government, unions prevent it. What you can do is indict people that commit felonies. If the Administration Takes them seriously, eric holder of the Justice Department opens an investigation, and he hasnt. You think this is an isolated incident . This is jose matthews, a physician at the st. Louis v. A. Here is his description of what he saw. What really bothered me was that this delay was a direct result of this extremely low sense of caring for patients. They all got bonuses. Thats the sad part. In reality, we are really not doing a good job, but it shows up on paper as if we are. I think we have some form of moral blindness or something. Theyre not able to see that this is not right what we are doing is not right. Moral blindness. Just looking out for their bonuses rather than our veterans. When they fight on the front lines, putting their lives at risk, when they get home they exof. It appears they are not. The administration is terrified by this story because its real, and also what does it say about obamacare . These are the same people, the same federal government administering obamacare. If they treat our veterans this way, how are they going to treat you . We see a track record with the president saying this is outrageous, our veterans need to be protected. Outrageous at the irs, im going to get to the bottom of this does anyone get fired . No. People get promoted. This is what the president said about the irs in may 2013. Listen. Its inexcusable and americans are right to be angry about it. I am angry about it. I will not tolerate this kind of behavior in any agency, but especially in the irs given the power it has and the reach it has in all our lives. The government generally has to conduct itself in a way that is true to the public trust. Thats especially true for the irs. You would think swift action, right . Fire the person in charge of that, the irs commissioner stephen miller, hes gone. Turns out he was term limited anyway. Same script. Hes gone. We are getting rid of him. He is term limited so he is gone any way. Accountability. Friends and fox news. Com. Well stay on this story as the other shoe continues to drop.

Terrifying moments at boston fenway park a woman reportedly in Critical Condition after falling down an elevator shaft. Initial reports indicate the 22yearold had her back to the fourth floor elevator doors when at least one door opened unexpectedly. She fell on to the roof of the elevator at the second floor. Rescuers reached her through a hatch of the roof where they found her unconscious. A new leader for the naacp.

Big fox fans and they are supporting you. There you go. We obviously this week has been a big week out west with all of the fires because theres been such significant drought and suddenly these recordbreaking warm temperatures and incredible wind. The temperatures have broken, but the summer outlook has been released. Generally when you have drought, it perpetuates high temperatures. That is what we are going to see for the summer, aboveaverage temperatures across much of california. That is not good news. We are heading into the dry season. Things likely could get worse there here is a look the at next five days. Very cool across the great lakes in much of the east. Take a look at what happens. The heat begins to build in toward the Southern Plains in amarillo by monday, 101 degrees. Same with the panhandle of oklahoma. We do see a big increase in our temperatures. Tuesday, chicago, you are up to 79 finally. Where you saw snow in the area yesterday, now we are getting back into the 70s. By wednesday, the heat is on for a lot of people. Well see a little bit of rain showers today heading across parts of arkansas in toward the Tennessee Valley across the west. Still remaining dry, but cooler conditions and the onshore flow brings more moisture into Southern California. Thanks, rick. Lets head up to wisconsin this morning for a little bit of outrage and a bit of a debate. Many of you fired up about this on twitter and facebook. The question whether or not a father should have stepped in to protect his own daughter so much so for being bullied at 5 years old he threatened to get a retraining order against the other child because his child is being bullied so harshly. Getting kicked in the face, sand and rocks thrown at her, he says. The child said, i want to slit your throat and watch you bleed. Now that ive done all this they took him out of the classroom my daughter is in but its not enough. I want him removed from the School District, period. The question how far. Is that a justified response or hysterical response and does it send a message to the child this is a bigger deal than it needs to be. I dont know. If im the father of a little girl being bullied by a little boy who says he is going to slit my daughters throat and it doesnt seem the school was responding, doing anything about it, i dont know where you turn. Do you turn to the police . Do you file something with the city or do you tell your little girl to punch this kid in the face . Is that going to be good enough . I wonder how serious this really is. This is a 5yearold saying this. If it was a 15yearold i would say, you no. But a 5yearold, is that a credible threat . I dont know the kid involved. Pain he snuck in and watched his parents watching a rated ranch movie. Maybe this child is deranged and its a cry for help from him. Very often the people bullying are hurting signed themselves. There may be a deeper issue. Thats why i bully because im hurting inside. After having taught kindergarten more than 12 years and Teaching School more than 34, that comment is not bullying. It goes far beyond bullying. The child ought to be removed for a period of time. Victoria writes, i agree defending yourself in school. Zero tolerance wont allow that. Its turned our kids into tattle tales. I wonder if the dad was able to go to the other parent and say something, by the way your son threatened to kill my daughter. Thats over the top.

Is out, stepping down amid a growing scandal, but he was supposed to retire anyway. Earlier this week, Veterans Affair secretary told congress he is furious about the reports of long and deadly waiting times. Any adverse incident like this makes me mad as hell. Is that enough . Is it time for him to go . Lets talk about it. Congressman, nice to see you this morning. Good morning. First of all, congressman, i want to get your response to the number two guy there petzel stepping down, even though we know according to a press release in the fall he was set to retire 2014 anyway. This is the typical response weve seen from the v. A. , window dressing. Doesnt address the problem and claims we are getting to the bottom of it. Thats simply unacceptable. So walk me through this. The president last year demanded accountability and said our veterans deserved the best care and treatment possible. Then we have the report back in december where we know the veterans knew about some of these delays and cooking of the books so to speak. Why has this, why was this still allowed to go on and why has there been no one held accountable yet . That is the secretarys call. We had other issues for five to six years. Fiscal mismanagement, lavish bonuses going on and on. There is a culture of nonaccountability there and it starts at the top. Thats why im suggesting and others are we need an independent commission to review whats going on at the v. A. Thats the only way to get work outside the v. A. To change whats going on there. I hate to maybe this sounds childish, but isnt it obvious whats gone on there . They doubled the amount of money theyve been able to use for resources there . There are no doctors . They havent been able to hire the number of doctors they need to handle the cases they have. Isnt it obvious they havent hired these doctors and thats why this backlog and they had to cook the books . Well, 150 billion a year, its not about money, its about incompetence and mismagazinemna. We had dozens of committees looking at these problems we lash out at the v. A. We asked for answers. Under secretary after under secretary comes forward and says we are working on that. Veterans are dying because of their failures. The secretary is mad as hell, but what do the families feel about this . Right. How can you fix this . We need to start over and need an independent commission review, whats going on at the v. A. If youre a veteran you should have a choice outside the v. A. System. If its not working for you, go to your local hospital. In my district in the middle of kansas, rural area, we are hundreds of miles from the local v. A. Hospital, they should have a choice. Lets give the veterans a choice that. Will take care of the problem. Congressman, we appreciate you joining us this morning. Well keep working on it.

Seaworld has been educating visitors for 50 years. Its work behind the scenes thats really worth celebrating. Seaworld rescue is putting me to work.

You are trying to rescue them, rehabilitate them and return them to the wild. Theyve got to be competitive while out there so this is good. Absolutely.

A new report found the average Life Expectancy for women in the u. S. Is 81 while the average Life Expectancy for men is 76. Or as both husbands and wives put it, good. Listen to this story. The center for Immigration Studies in a new report has found that basically 36,000 criminals, individuals with a whole host of different criminal past convictions have been released. Immigrants in this country illegally are being released from prison by the Obama Administration, including, take a look at these numbers. 193 homicide convictions, 426 sexual assaults, 303 kidnappings. It doesnt stop there. Just wrap your mind around this. 36,000 of them, then weve got hundreds of violent crimes, murderers, rapists, kidnappers just out there on the streets and they were awaiting these deportation hearings. Instead theyre free. Arent they committing two crimes . One for being here illegally, then these, some of them very dangerous crimes. Shouldnt they be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law all the way around . Of course. This is a politicallymotivated move on the part of the administration. There is a constituency on behalf of these criminals. There are pressure groups squeezing the white house to stop deportations and punishing people for committing the crime of sneaking into the country without papers. Vice president biden, stop deporting people. He said well stop that, too. You may see criminals, the white house sees potential voters. It really is that simple. Earlier on the show we had a legal debate. What ends up happening is there is some discretion. When you have Illegal Immigrants come over here that commit crimes, they also started families. They have children we cant deport because they are citizens. I. C. E. Will look at some of these cases and say who do we trust enough to stay in the United States and do what they are supposed to do versus who we dont . Its a crap shoot. Thats what happens. Why are these 36,000 people released with some form of supervision or signing on the dotted line dont come back. Earlier in the year there were 16,000 that were just released. Bye. Think about it. You get arrested for dui, i get arrested for dui, i lose my job. Its hard to get a job if you are convicted of dui, but not a big deal if you are an illegal immigrant. You are part of a protected class. We face a greater danger as citizens from the more than 10,000 drunk drivers who have been released. Thats where people get killed. 16,000 of them, according to those numbers. Governor Mike Huckabee says get out on the road in some of these cities could be dangerous for americans. It seems a combination of incompetence. I dont know if they thought it was going to be a budget saver and they could say they made a great inroads rehabilitating prisoners. When you turn rapists and murderers out en masse, we are going to turn them out on the streets. There are a lot of people in America Today who are in harms way and endangered because of this ridiculous decision. I think it will bite them in the rear end the first time somebody is hurt, injured, murdered or raped by one of these people who have been let out with no just cause whatsoever. What does it say about our borders . Hey, our borders are open. Come on in and commit whatever crimes you want. You are not going to be deported because fewer than 1 4 of those released will show up to court to go through the Legal Process of being here illegally anyway. More on that story on the fox news channel. A marine mother hoping that the gripping 911 call from her imprisoned marine corps son proves his innocence. I crossed the border by accident and i have three guns in my truck and theyre trying to take my guns from me. So youre in mexico . Yeah. There is nothing i can help you with, sir. I do apologize. 25yearold marine corps Sergeant Andrew tahmooressi was undergoing post Traumatic Stress disorder treatment. Took a wrong turn and ended up in mexico. Officers arrested him for weapons possession. His mother says this 911 call proves he never meant to cross that border. It proves what ive been saying, the conversation he had with me. He called 911 first as his first instinct then he called his mama second. Thats exactly what he told me, he had gotten lost, made a wrong turn and ended up at the border. His mother saying she hasnt heard from the white house or the state Department Since this 911 tape was released. She was thrown several feet into the air.

Supporters of common core say it raises the bar for our nations kids, but in practice, it has left some students and teachers frustrated by confusing questions, fuzzy math and teaching to the test. Who is responsible for this and is common core worth saving . Joining us now is mike kelley, a trustee of the thomas b. Fordham foundation and both a conservative and not being paid for his support of common core. Its interesting to hear your perspective. Tea party people really up in arms about common core. You say they believe things that arent true in some cases. There is a misperception. Its interesting. The opponents range from the tea party to the unions. The tea party say we are taxed enough already. Public schools in new york we are spending 22,000, 23,000 a student and getting 22 of them College Ready by the end of high school. A disaster. Its a disaster. The Catholic Schools in new york city educate kids between 6,000 and 7,000 and Getting Better test scores and better kids and more collegeready kids. Charter schools are educating them for 13,000 to 14,000 a head and they are the best in the state. So why are we spending all this extra money to get disastrous results . Shouldnt we be following things like the Catholic Schools and Charter Schools that set standards . Thats what common core is about. Its standards. The fact that the unions are against it means they dont want accountability, which is what common core. That makes sense. I think those are preceps most conservatives would agree with. Most oppose common core so its nice for to you answer their questions. Lets put some up on the screen here. If we home school not using common core, do you see that creating future hardships for our kids . My answer to carmann was, i dont see it as a problem unless the kids are required to take the state test in most of the states there have been 45 that adopted common core. Most dont require to take the test. The problem has been not with the standards, the problem has been with the implementation by the state. Common core is not a curriculum. The curriculum is developed by the different states. All voluntarily individually, not the federal government. Different states have been terrible in the rollout. We probably shouldnt expect more of the state educational agencies doing a poor job educating them. My view would be on home schooling, the parents knowing there are standards that they have to achieve for common core may do a better job at implementing. Teachers have time to help those kids who need extra help or have to stay on a specific schedule . Especially to special ed kids. They are not addressed by this its going to have to be something that will be addressed in the future or else its not going to be a good situation. I know here in new york, al graff, we had alliterations on the Facebook Page. I visited al. This is something al is doing good work on and trying to promote around the state. I would hope they address that. Will local School Systems be able to teach their current text books or forced to purchase new texts to adhere to common core . Its going to be one of the Better Outcomes on this. Previously publishes were driven by what was the largest markets, california, new york, texas, they would be the curriculums that got best served by publishers. When you have common core standards, and small states would have to float by in their draft there. Hopefully as common core builds out, youll see publishers will be developing specific tests that will address these standards. Mike kelley, weve done a lot of segments with people skeptical of common core. There is another side to this debate. Thanks a lot for doing that. This just happened. Anna and i went headtohead. Really, we collaborated in the spartan race. I bought a car, over and tells you, and youre like. A good deal or not. Looking at truecar. Com. Theres no buyers remorse.

E. A. L. Boot camp. Its like being in the olympics for the day. You have recovered . I think i broke my wrist. No, i am just kidding. It was my impression there would be some assistance at some point. I was told who did that come from . The producer carly over here she didnt help at all. He was giving emotional assistance over there cheering. Well be right back. More heavy breathing when we return. [ female announcer ] theres a gap out there.

I thought i better have my game. Yeah, if you had not fallen on top of the tire, i think you may have made it. Tomorrow, pc police gone mad. You should not have called your professor, mr. Or ms.
