Iconic evangelist invitationonly funeral in charlotte. Griff, pick it up. Among the guests President Trump and Vice President pence all take part in grahams final journaly. Most of his life was spent traveling the world but the last week he embarked on the journey he had been looking forward to all of his life the journey from earth to heaven. Griff graham was buried beside his wife ruth who died in 2007. Those are your headlines. I will tell you, you raised a point, ainsley, it was scant coverage from other networks. He is such an incredible part of our history. Only one of four citizens to ever be honored to you lie in the rotunda and of course that funeral, every religious leader really nut country came. It was as much a celebration there at the library. You didnt see handkerchiefs and tears as you saw people there to honor him. I asked Franklin Graham when i interviewed him and sound bite father and private study where president s have sat with him and all that stuff. I said did you ever talk to your dad about what you would say at the funeral. He said no, son, i want you to do whatever the spirit moves you. Pete it was very much a follow through on his testament. What he has talked about. You see through his family, dont forget that his message is real and he is somewhere real and we need to follow through in this world. It was amazing. Kudos to this channel for following it walltowall where a lot of other people did not. He deserved it. Ainsley he was a great example of what we strive to be, a really good person spreading a message of faith and hope. Pete young pictures of him doing it 30 years old. Incredible. Griff speaking of all those cancellations delta in the news not just for the people, i believe. Pete 13, i believe. Griff let me put deltas statement up ed bastain our objective in removing any implied affiliation with the nra was to remove delta from this debate. Our decision was not made for economic gain and our values are not for sale. Especially, it was headed up by the Lieutenant Governor there he said and then lawmakers agreed and got on board, you know what . We are not going to give that you tax cut anymore for the jet fuel. Thats going to cost you 40 million new dont support the nra because a lot of our residents support the nra. Delta still did it. They did not get the tax cut. They lost out on 40 million. Pete 40 million tax carve out. The Georgia State legislature says no more. Because we dont want you you clearly played politics at this moment. And then delta puts out a statement and says no, no, no, no. This wasnt about politics at all. All of these companies have social responsibility offices where they virtue signal to us and they tell us what were supposed to believe. And in this case they were caught totally redhanded because there are people, of course, that fly delta who love the nra, myself included. I dont know, i have a status with the nra. Status with the nra. Email us by the way email us at friends foxnews. Com. What do you think about this . I love seeing the legislature enough. Each if its a hub. Each if we love this company we are not going to support. Ainsley did you know as an nra member you got a delta discount because only 13 people took advantage of that put in the coupon code. Pete im bad at that though generally. Ainsley people are. Griff fascinating to see how this plays out. Delta making a symbolic gesture full on knowing it doesnt have real economic teeth to it. But they wants to remove themselves from divisive issues, et cetera, et cetera. However, the back end was a real economic bite from the Georgia Legislature. We will see whether this actually makes Companies Think twice before they jump into fray for symbolic gesture when it amounts to millions of dollars. Ainsley divide it how much it costs them based on the people owho took discount 3 million per person. Pete governor Mike Huckabee our friend who we love. I didnt know this, he is on the board of the cma. Ainsley just got on the board like a week ago. Maybe a day ago. It was like an Anthony Scaramucci thing just a few well, it was shortlived. And for a reason. Here is what the music executive, jason owen said about this. Listen to what the cma, a rep for the cma said. Huckabee uses language that was a profoundly negative impact upon young people all across this country. Not to mention how harmful and damaging his deep involvement with the nra is. What a shameful choice. So, there was immediate blow back that he was a member of this board. We have seen governor Mike Huckabee play hiewsks, too. Griff hes a great musician. Pete loves this country apparently unacceptable for the cma. Ainsley im serving on this board because i want to put instruments in the hands of young kids listen to the criticism or backlash of him serving on this board. One arena where people ought to be able to get together putting aside anything from race or ethnicity or religion or politics heritage or anything that we could come together and celebrate that one part of life thats civilizes us, which is the arts. And when we cant have that then i fear that our sizzles may nocivilization may not be lg for this earth if that doesnt civilize us. It shouldnt be about my politics, which are conservative. It should be about kids getting musical instruments. Thats all this was ever about for me. Pete of course. In this case its hollywood or nashville i should say for Country Music. In the other case with delta, it was corporate culture, again, Political Correctness is insidious. Ainsley i was so shocked. Arent you shocked though that conservative Country Music, the people who listen to Country Music. Thats Middle America. Thats the south. He represents that. Most of the people who listen to Country Music they go to church on sundays. They love Mike Huckabee. I was shocked that the cma, that the board did this. Griff let us know what you think. Friends foxnews. Com. I bet our viewers will want to weigh in on it. Pete you think . Griff media slamming the president s plan for steel tariffs. This tariff is lashing out in indiscriminate way. This is fundamentally incompetent. All this done has raised threat and worries and concerns over protectionism u. Griff what does the other side think. We will ask the president of one of the Steel Workers union next. Ainsley 20yearold Resignation Letter is going viral. While he is choosing the Second Amendment over his job hey, baby. There aint no easy way out i stand my ground sometimes a cough gets in the way of a good nights sleep. Thats when he needs vicks vaporub. Proven cough medicine. With 8 hours of vapors. So he can sleep. Vicks vaporub. Goodnight coughs. Bundle and save big, but now its time to find my dream abode. Right away, i could tell his priorities were a little unorthodox. Keep going. Stop. A little bit down. Stop. Back up again. Is this adequate sunlight for a Komodo Dragon . Yeah. Sure, i want that discount on Car Insurance just for owning a home, but im not compromising. Youre taking a shower . Water pressures crucial, scott its like they say location, location, koi pond. They dont say that. Worries and concerns over protectionism. Griff economists in the media freaking out over President Trumps plan to impose tariffs on steel and aluminum. Ainsley what do the tariffs mean for the forgotten men and women who voted for President Trump. Here to discuss that president of the united Steel Workers in west virginia. Thank you for being with us. Its good to be here. Ainsley great to have you on a saturday. What does it mean for the forgotten man and woman who voted for the president. Remember he promised this on the campaign trail. He sure did. It means a great deal. The president on his Campaign Promised to have fair trade. And so he is honoring his one of his commitments and it means a great deal to the American Steel worker. We have lost hundreds of thousands of steel jobs in the last 20 years, 30 years. And we can only produce today, in this country, 80 of what our country needs. We are already importing 20 of our domestic needs as far as steel is concerned. Griff let me ask you, mark, this all comes down to all the economists saying its going to hurt the economy. President trump is saying, listen, even at the behealth of republican leaders, he believes this is a good idea. What do you think will be the net impact on the economy. First of all, i mean, we need to protect our american citizens. Its a National Security issue. Okay. We cannot build a battle ship today because our steel mills have been shut down. I dont think this is long overdue. The president s last three or four president s have promised to level the Playing Field as far as steel is concerned and they havent done it. President trump is the one that i think is going to great positive for this for protection of our american citizens. I think its also positive for america as a whole. Whats happening is we are importing product that is being illegally dumped into the american markets. And we shouldnt be doing that. If we cant compete, so be it. We can compete. We have one of the greatest economies in the world today. And if we play fairly then our economy, no matter what, will prosper. We should be building steel mills, not shuttle them down. We should be protecting the american citizens by being able to produce plate and armor, plate for our domestic needs and so hopefully, that these tariffs are going to result in a very positive longterm outcome. Ainsley this is what the president had to say about the importance of steel. When it comes to a time when our country cant make aluminum or steel, you almost dont have much of a country. Without steel and aluminum, your country is not the same. We need great steelmakers. Great aluminummakers for defense. Ainsley mark, you are one of those great Steel Workers. For folks at home not in the Steel Industry, how does it effect them for the teaches and doctors that dont do what you do. In laymans terms what does it mean for them. First of all we are protecting them with a strong Steel Industry. We have to protect our american citizens by being able to have a very strong Steel Industry that can produce the equipment and our defense items in order to protect the american citizens. I think its going to have a very minor affect on teachers ant rest of the economy. Good outweigh the bad as far as tariffs are concerned. First thing we need to do is protect our country. By imposing tariffs its going to give us a chance to rebuild the Steel Industry and get back to where we used to be. Griff thats certainly what the president thinks, marks. We shall find out. I think hes right. He promised us the last four president s have promised it and they havent done it at least President Trump is doing what he said he is going to do and its the right thing to do. Clearly the right thing to do. Do. I dont think we ought to be concerned about a trade war. Okay. We are the strongest economy in the world. And we ought to protect our people first. Ainsley okay. Im not worried about a trade war at all. Ainsley we will see how it shakes out, marc. Thanks for being here and what you do for this country. The mayor who warned Illegal Immigrants about ice raids could face criminal charges. She says she didnt do anything wrong. I continue to feel confident that what i did was the right thing and it was legal. Ainsley was it the right thing . Was it legal . We will debate it coming up next. Griff whats a former cia director doing calling a a sitting president inept . Dan bongino is coming up next. I bet he has something to say about it. Nobody can drag me down. Pete welcome back to fox friends. Headlines for you. In the wake of the Deadly Florida shooting rick scott is declaring february 14th as imagey Stoneman Douglas remembrance day. Inviting the community to hold a moment of silence toted at 3 00 p. M. 17 days after 17 people were killed in that tragic shooting. 31 million raised will be split amongst 532 victims from the Las Vegas Shooting massacre. On monday families of the 58 killed will get 275,000. As well as those suffering permanent damage. Victims who were hospitalized will also receive funds ranging from 17,000 to 200,000. Griff, over to you. Griff thank you, pete. The department of justice reviewing the actions of oakland mayor libby schaaf for warning Illegal Immigrants about ice raids. Schaaf insisting she did nothing wrong. I continue to feel confident that what i did was the right thing and it was legal. I did not give specific information that could have endangered Law Enforcement. I encouraged people to not panic but to know their rights. Griff so did she commit a rhyme . Rhyme . Here to debate the Heritage FoundationBeverly Hallberg and democratic strategist joel payne. Beverly, i want to start with you did, she commit a crime or not. The department of justice said they are going to be looking into it. I think there is enough there to wonder whether or not she did. Here is what i think is a dangerous trend is its not just these local law officials or these elected officials othat are trying to circumvent the law. We also have judges who are trying to not uphold the law. If you dont like the federal law, change the federal law. And i think this is extremely concerning. She said that she didnt put any ice agents in danger. But i think any time you alert people to somebody coming to their neighborhood i think you are putting these agents in danger. I think its very reckless and the wrong direction that elected officials should take if they want to keep their city safe. Griff mayor schaaf gave a statement on why she did this. I will show this qui
