[italian music] jedediah: i am italian and i fully support. pete: we can't support that music. ed: make sure no one was going to criticize us. pete: it's italian. america did not invent pizza. they invented about everything else but not pizza. ed: pete mentioned it, big story still breaking in virginia. something very rotten in richmond. now you have the lieutenant governor after all the trouble for the governor, the lieutenant governor justin fairfax now has a second accuser alleging that he raped her back at duke university. pete: you have this whole mess in virginia top three democrats embroiled in scandal. the top democrat and the attorney general so the number one and the number three accused and admitting to wearing blackface and they have been called to resign by many but they are not moving anywhere. ed: many in their own party. pete: now you have the number two justin fairfax lieutenant governor one allegation of sexual assault from a professor. now a second one has come out yesterday claiming that while they were undergrats at duke that she was raped by him a very serious accusation. and she has come out. ed: it has not been verified yet. pete: we will be very careful about this. jedediah: not verified you do have people saying that she did tell people at the time and ran across the hall crying. people on the left do deem it kavanaugh allegation. pete: unlike kavanaugh because facts do matter. ed: facts matter and we want to be clear that the democratic lieutenant governor of virginia justin fairfax put out this statement i deny this latest unsubstantiated allegation. it is demonstrably false, he says. i have never forced myself on anyone, ever. i demand a full investigation into these unsubstantiated and false allegations. but, again, that is not stopping some in his own party who are saying get out. jedediah: some have been consistent on this issue. deserve due process talking about kavanaugh at the time saying let's investigate it and give them due process and let's not jump to a conclusion. many folks on the left. folks will remember did jump to conclusions when it came to kavanaugh. pete: leaped. jedediah: when christie blasey ford did not have confirmation. people contradicted her story or supported kavanaugh's character at the time. so this is a little bit different. but, i support the consistency of people on both sides of the aisle who have said, you know what? let's investigate it and give it due process. pete: pretty much the only consistency has come from conservatives and republicans who say kavanaugh was so unfairly treated we are going to give deference enough to democrats. if he says it's demonstrably false means he can demonstrates it is false. jedediah: some democrats not tolerating it. hope from virginia saying he will file articles of impeachment if fairfax doesn't resign. take a listen. >> as the father of three young girls, i cannot stand by silently while the lieutenant governor is facing multiple, credible allegations of sexual assault. i believe these women. he needs to resign immediately. should the lieutenant governor fail to do so, on monday, i intend to introduce articles of impeachment. ed: so, interesting. on one hand there you have a democrat perhaps being consistent going back to kavanaugh in terms of their position. pete: sure. ed: in saying look there is credible allegations in his mind so you have got to go. to your point, jed, what about due process. justin fairfax the democrat has no due process. just has allegations out there. he has denied them. there hasn't been any sort of investigation. yet it's not just a democratic delegate teeing off on justin fairfax a fellow democrat. you have a litany of 2020 democratic hopefuls who do not appear to have learned anything from the kavanaugh situation because are immediately saying get out. pete: they have no other choice. they have set such a standard they have no other choice. elizabeth warren, kamala harris, kristin gillibrand cory booker, castro, bernie sanders. these folks all lining up saying he has got to go. i will say this about the number one, northam, the governor, they have all called for him to go. if you read behind the scenes reports, "the washington post," they are quietly telling him to stay. the hypocrisy beyond rampant. ed: why is that, pete? pete: they don't want to give up the governorship there is a republican waiting in the wing fs all three of them go. ed: governor, lieutenant governor and attorney general who admitted to blackface. if all three goes the next in line is the republican speaker of their state house, basically. all of a sudden you see the current democratic governor. if all three democrats fall, a republican becomes governor in virginia. pete: can't have that, ed. ed: well, maybe northam should stick around. jedediah: when it comes to fairfax i still have a problem with this immediate i believe the women. unfortunately democrats set that process with due process. we had tammy bruce fox news contributor saying democrats have made due process go out the window. i think she is right. take a listen. >> the principles for democrats kind of oxymoron right there because this is what's happened. men now, they get no due process under any circumstance, right? due process is blown up. women are now clear been made into irrelevant weaponized additional victims of opportunity when it comes to political option. if you are the right kind of woman making the right kind of accusation against the right kind of perch person, ie a conservative or republican. you will be taken seriously. it seems to be so serious that they have to apply yes and they are trying to apply that same standard of no due process. pete: left will be marching in the streets if these were republicans. instead sending a couple treats. a tweet to resign and then be quiet. ed: street vs. tweet. pete: i made that up. ed: not just democrats but media howngsding them 24/7, why haven't you left yet. the satellite truck us will be camped out outside your home. jedediah: also a distinction. fairfax is being held accountable by some democrats. remember with kavanaugh, there was a public hearing. they made the media, hollywood, alyssa milano. they publicly had to humiliate him. and also tie him to president trump and president trump's judgments. larger game. now when this comes to fairfax even when they call for his resignation notice they are not putting that front and center and attaching his names and not linking this to other democrats to a larger issue of the party itself. ed: this is linked to 2020. all these 2020 democratic hopefuls jumping in with or without the facts. we will touch on elizabeth warren who is officially launching her presidential efforts. pete: she can d. h ed: she already put it out there with the beer summit. jedediah: are you triggered yet? ed: in massachusetts. that's interesting the border battle continues as well. at the end of this week, founding for the federal government, at least parts of it runs out again. the clock ticking on whether or not there is going to be a deal to get more border security money. pete: new numbers are coming out now as this battle moves on show that problems at the border are only getting worse. in fact, october 2018. since october to this year, over 200,000 apprehensions have occurred at the border. that is up 85% from last year. ed: apprehensions are down. it's quieter. it's a manufactured crisis. pete: we have done interviews with democrats saying this is not a problem. this is going away. no, the apprehensions are going up. people are racing for the border while it's still open. the emergency is more ripe than ever. >> favorite run footage of manufactured crisis side by side with the footage flooding the border and causing issues. and agents advocating. ed: chuck schumer saying there was a crisis. jedediah: mike pence has emerged as a key figure in this. he recently said we will not rest until the border is secure with personnel and barriers. listen. >> we are going to continue to work to secure our border north, south, east, and west. when it comes to southern southern border as the negotiations continue, we will not rest why will not relent until our customs and border protection have the technology, the personnel, and the barriers required to secure our border: we're going it build that wall one way or another. i promise you. ed: you see the white house not backing down an inch. have you seen the same message consistent with what the message said repeatedly. there is a report in politico as early as this weekend there could be a preliminary deal in terms of new border security funding. tech nicltechnically not call ia wall, call that border. pete: hearing what might be in the sausage-making right now. in light of stats like this, the president has held. there is no choice but to say i will get my border wall, fencing, barrier, whatever you want to call it. that's the throw down. jedediah: don't you think it's important to have mike pence out there? there are people who view him differently. people who just hate donald trump for whatever reason and everything he says as a result they are able to criticize in a certain way. i think the media handles him differently: it's a 1-2 combo. we turn to headlines for you. president trump sharing high hopes ahead of second summit with north korea. the president tweeting, quote: north korea under the leadership of kim jong un will become a great economic power house. he may surprise some but he won't surprise me because i have gotten to know him and fully understand how capable he is. north korea will become a different kind of rocket, an economic one. ed: different kind of rocket. jedediah: the president will meet with kim jong un in hanoi later this month. nurse pleads guilty to using a cell phone to throw off police. agreeing to testify against kelsey bearsy's fiance. accused in the murder. unclear how the two met. barys was last seen thanksgiving morning her body is yet to be found. turning now to extreme weather. a monster winter storm wreaking havoc in the northwest overnight. governor in washington declaring a state of emergency. seattle is expected to get hit with the heaviest snow fall in two years. some areas expecting up to 8 inches with wind gusts of 45 miles per hour. hundreds of flights are cancelled and delayed in seattle and portland. pete: did i hear that the governor declared a state of emergency. i think that's another emergency going on. someone should declare it. ed: we will let pete think about that a little more. fireworks erupting on capitol hill after democrats become triggered by the president's acting attorney general. >> you wouldn't oversee a witch-hunt, would you?

>> it was a total disgrace. the american people want us to work on big issues in a bipartisan manner. and this was just theatrical show, character assassination, just another way to undermine president trump. it was really disgusting. i was quite sad to tell you the truth because if the american public was watching, they would just see these democrats trying to harass this witness and ask all kinds of crazy questions, cut him off all the time. just quite frankly being very rude. you know, i'm the co-chairwoman of the bipartisan women's caucus. and so i am really trying to get something done that we can work on with both republicans and democrats. but this type of theatrics does nothing to help that cause. >> representative, i wish you luck in that cause. but it feels like a pretty tough one these days. because a hearing like that feels like a preview of what democrats want to do. they won the house. now it's time to investigate under every rock. do you expect anything to change in the house between now and 2020? >> you know, they're overreaching. i think that's going to be good for republicans in 2020 because they are going so far to the left, so radical, so rude that i think the american public is going to wake up. i think it's going to backlash on them. pete: they say to matt whitaker who are you? how did you even land here? this is a guy who has time as a attorney of the southern district of iowa because it's not the southern district of manhattan and iowa, he is now unqualified. it was very con descending the view they took of him. >> it was very condescending they came into this saying we are just going to do an oversight hearing. that was a bunch of bologna. all they wanted to to do is get in there and harass him and intimidate him and try to get him to say something against president trump. it was a total show, total theatrics. you know, unfortunately, that's what the democrats are doing now. they have this election bill coming up which is taxpayer funding of candidates. it's atrocious. it's awful. they have gun control coming up. they are going so overboard radical socialism that, you know, i think it's going to backfire on them. pete: representative, i say keep doing these hearings and we will keep showing them and they will keep exposing themselves. representative lesko, thank you for your time. your three minutes are up. no more speaking or i will cut off your microphone, all right?

>> whoever said it earlier, they would be camped out on the front of their lawns, there would be media trucks everywhere. the democrats set an impossible standard. that's the hypocrisy here. whether it's sexual assault allegations or blackface is automatically assumed to be racism. they have set the standard. and now they are caught in their own standard. the democrats macvelian way i admire them they will stick by and ignore the calls against their hypocrisy. they don't believe in due process when it comes to the allegations of sexual assault. they won't have an honest conversation about blackface from the early 1900s the minstrel shows the different uses in media you look the a silver street and robert downey playing a black man in tropic thunder look at white chicks. all these movies portrayed with different things playing the other ethnicity. michael jackson in various disguise. nothing to say. but politically let them die by the standard i'm going to say this. michael ertel resigned in florida after going to a halloween party yes, it's outrageous what he did with the dress and bra and republican florida secretary of state and if northam gets to keep his job then governor desantis call michael erttle and offer his job back. jedediah: when it comes to black face and how people should be held accountable. for you is there is a nuances in there this and is there a difference yearbook photo with northam find that outrageous someone kkk outfit and someone with blackface i went to halloween party or once i dressed up as michael jackson. should there be different consequences how do we handle it in 2018 interest. >> needs to be consequences. jedediah: 2019. thank you. >> i still do that. there needs to be honesty. in the 1980s and 1990s i was there for the halloween parties. people dressed up in outrageous costumes. didn't make them automatically racist. i'm not calling northam racist because he did this because he didn't march with the kkk he doesn't come out and say i believe whites are superior to blacks. definition of racism is to believe that one group is superior to another. outrageous and offensive does not automatically rise to racism. it's dishonest to automatically assign that. that's the problem with this standard. so, if someone goes to a halloween party, okay. outrageous, offensive? fine. if they commit an action that is racist, then i will call them a racist. and that doesn't matter whether you are republican or democrat, male or female. ed: david webb, thank you for weighing in. pete: that's a relate check right there. ed: if you got a check j jedediah recently it's no good it has 2018. jedediah: i tricked a lot of people, david. >> good for 90 days. jedediah: i tricked a lot of people, david. pete: massive fentanyl bust and known as a pathway for drugs in our country. why will elizabeth warren -- why is she celebrating in massachusetts today?

jedediah: it's a sanctuary city and in october of 2018 there was a massive fentanyl bust there. this is a -- the reason i think she chose lawrence is because there is a lot of working class people there. there are some low income people there that would respond she feels to her populist message. i don't know why at this time she didn't do the research. you actually have u.s. attorney andrew welling on the fentanyl bust talking in lawrence. listen. >> lawrence is a clearing house for illegal drugs pouring into new hampshire and maine. ed: that's awful and that's not good and we don't mean to laugh at that but the idea of the hypocrisy we are laughing at with elizabeth warren and other democrats saying it's a manufactured crisis. fentanyl is one of the drugs that is streaming across the border as the president has said again and again and democrats have laughed it off and said he is manufacturing this crisis and now she is going to launch her presidential bid in a sanctuary city where there was a massive fentanyl bust. this is rich. jedediah: maybe do a little research. all it would have taken if we can just do that research why couldn't she take a minute launch something somewhere immigration is one of the most hot button issues right now that everyone is plugged into. you think maybe she would have thought about that and said listen what else is going on here? let me see if this the proper place to launch. pete: she is not thinking about that i love watching presidential bids getting launched and dead in the water. amy klobuchar. everyone who has worked for her says she has been terrible to them. elizabeth warren otherwise known as pocahontas a fraud on her background launches a dead in the water presidential campaign. it's kind of amusing. you see the people who have a viable chance and then you watch these folks who have enough advisors telling them they should do it that they do it but they are never going to win. ed: elizabeth warren's launch "fox & friends." ed: where would you suggest she should launch from?

very much like a power grab or a land grab people will talk about road to socialism no doubt this is about government controlling the means of production here. the real problem is for representative cortez because she told us it doesn't matter if you are factually accurate. if matters if you are morally correct. well, you take a look at this proposal and it's morally incorrect. there is just no way to look at it morally it doesn't pass any smell test. it doesn't provide any value to the american people or to any citizen -- no any citizen anywhere in the world of even their nation. so there is a real moral deficit here going on from representative cortez and i think she needs to go back and take a look at that and question her own morality. ed: i was talking to one of republican colleagues who privately told me he represents congresswoman cortez she is honest and direct about what she wants to do with the country unlike other democrats in the congress who say i'm kind of moderate and really they believe some of this radical stuff. but, to your point, congresswoman ocasio-cortez seemed to be all over the map this week on whether or not it was really a government takeover. look how she framed it herself. not us but her own words within a few hours apart. watch. >> i think one way that the right does try to mischaracterize what we're doing as though it's some kind of massive government takeover. >> um-huh. >> obviously what we're trying to do is -- well, obviously it's not that. >> are you prepared to put on the table yes, actually they are right, what this requires is massive government intervention. >> it does. it does. yeah. i have no problem saying that. ed: on the evening she is on msnbc saying the conservatives want to make it seem like a massive government takeover and it's not. earlier in the day she is on npr saying yeah, you can call it that. >> just 24 hours earlier from right now joe concha did a great job explaining that out to people these two sides of the mouth she is going on. you have to understand putting it all on alexandria ocasio-cortez that's not right. she is the messenger. she is the face of this concept. obama that he wanted to fundamentally transform the united states and the progressive wing which is the now nearly the entirety of the democratic party, bernie sanders wild their thoughts are now the commonplace. this is just the culmination of all of their hopes and dreams and their hopes and dreams destroy farmers, prevent people from enjoying their passions like flying. it creates a situation not where we try and do things that are better for the environment. we do things to the extent they are technically feasible. how does that work for a farmer when james taylor the heartland institute tell you are very dependent on tractors and plows and things that have combustion engines in order to provide the food that's on our table. this is a morally berreth concept put forth. alexandria ocasio-cortez she is just the. ed: thank you, tony. >> thank you. ed: yale university newspaper editor calling on students to spy on fellow white male classmates to ruin their careers. you are not going to believe this. jeff bezos goes after the "national enquirer" accusing them of blake mail. could this be the end of tabloids?

here to weigh in is kelsey harkness of the independent women's forum and heritage foundation. kelsey, this story is unbelievable to me honestly. the first thing that stuck out to me was the shear amount of documentation of things in writing. you've got bezos who is a grown man. he heads "the washington post." heads amazon sending text messages these photos to lauren sanchez, his mistress, then you have the "national enquirer" parent company then in writing putting out all these conditions. listen, we are going to release more photos unless you do x, y, and z. in this age are you surprised everyone did this in writing like this. >> to an extent you are but it is the "national enquirer." they don't necessarily abide by journalism standards that the rest of us hold ourselves to. that said, you have to ask who is this story more embarrassing for? jeff bezos or the "national enquirer." certainly it looks like the "national enquirer" could be open to some sort of litigation over this in terms of extortion and/or blackmail. but we also have to recognize that jeff bezos is also in the wrong here. he is a public figure. and he made himself open to extortion. i think in a way he is being a bit of a cry baby because when you are a public figure like this similar to politicians, you are vulnerable to these types of opposition research and in this case tabloid magazines spreads, so i think all around it doesn't look good on anyone. jedediah: what about the precedent he is setting though. pulled the ruling out. threatening them. never thinking probably is he going to be the one to say you know what? i'm putting this all out there. i'm going to be one step ahead of the game. do you think a lot of these things that potentially go on behind the scenes these emails that go through people on the other side will say i will get ahead of this and put it ahead myself or he had that cushion of all that money and success and he figured, you know what? i have nothing to lose? >> you are right. i think jeff bezos was in a position being the richest man in the world where he could take on this risk where a lot of other americans when they're being bullied and possibly extorted like this it wouldn't be as easy. but, that said, i do think he holds some sort of responsibility here for opening himself up to this type of extortion. but this type of extortion is absolutely unexcusable. it would not -- it would not fly at any actual respectable journalism institution and. jedediah: thank you, kelsey. more "fox & friends" coming up. woman 2: i had the common type. man 2: mine was rare. vo: epclusa has a 98% overall cure rate. man 3: i just found out about my hepatitis c. woman 3: i knew for years. vo: epclusa is only one pill, once a day, taken with or without food for 12 weeks. vo: before starting epclusa, your doctor will test if you have had hepatitis b, which may flare up, and could cause serious liver problems during and after treatment. vo: tell your doctor if you have had hepatitis b, other liver or kidney problems, hiv, or other medical conditions... vo: ...and all medicines you take, including herbal supplements. vo: taking amiodarone with epclusa may cause a serious slowing of your heart rate. vo: common side effects include headache and tiredness. vo: ask your doctor today, if epclusa is your kind of cure. ing. >> whole mess in virginia elm gloild scandal. >> lieutenant governor justin fairfax second allegation he raped her. >> do you have any message for the citizens of virginia?

jedediah: they don't know what to do, ed. pete: they are in a box. jedediah: they set such a terrible precedent of kavanaugh of not asking for due process and saying hold on a second. it's a serious matter. it needs to be taken seriously and investigated. let's see what we find out. now they feel like wait a minute we have to be come spelled if we are allies of this movement. pete: half compelling. jedediah: not quite. >> sorry about that. streets vs. tweets. if this was a republican, democrats would be taking to the streets saying you better resign or you are a racist or you are a woman hater. in this case. they are tweeting step down, step down. ed, as you know, "the washington post" reporting that virginia democrats and national democrats behind the scenes are telling governor northam the democrat there saying don't leave. don't leave your spot. sigh saying you should resign but we don't really mean it. ed: all three top democrats resign next in line is a republican who is the speaker of the house. michelle malkin was on fox news at night last night with mike emanuel and basically blasted democrats for always jumping on the band wagon. watch. >> the left has basically built its own ideological pandora's box. i think there are a lot of us on the right who have seen so many of these tactics. the grievance card played against republicans and conservatives who are indulging in a bit of shadden freud da now. we have to be careful about a band wagon effect now and the timing some of these accusations. it is true that some of these accusations were apparently covered up by democratic officials. but whenever there is political expedience involved, yes, you have to answer, ask the tough questions and allegations have to be subjected to corroboration. jedediah: i think she makes a great point. i think it's really easy to want to jump on the bandwagon someone in power is of a different party. let's try to get the republican. in let's look at it from that angle. you have to be consistent about due process. no matter whether it's a democrat or republican. no matter where you stand. people have a right to due process. you have to be able to call for an investigation without assuming that person is guilty on minute one. pete: we would hope that standard would be applied to us. on the lens you have to look through this if you get accused do you get tried in the court of public opinion or a real trial. look at kavanaugh and thin stance. it goes back to college an instance that happened there an op-ed in the yale daily news, one of the ivy leagues has a writer. her name is davis marks wrote i'm just going to read what she wrote. it applies you will see how it she wrote in the yale daily news, when i'm watching the white boy who is now a white man by this point on cnn, i will remember a racist remark that he said an unintentional utter rance he made when he had one too many at a frat party sophomore year i will recall a message that he accidentally left open on a computer when he forgot to log out of i message where he likened a woman's body to a particularly large animal. i will kick myself for forgetting to screen shot the evidence and when i'm watching him, smile that smile i will think that i could have stopped it. effectively she is arguing, listen, this is racism, i will say that i will find the white boy and i will do any instance to document the sins that he has committed when he was a an idiot in college so some day can i use it against him. where does that end? and how is that not racism? i mean that sincerely. i don't even know what the race is, it doesn't matter. ed: spying on a white man in a business situation when they are a grown adult a little bizarre. spy on them. to say as you say a white boy, which does sound racist and say basically when they do something stupid in college, it doesn't excuse what they did in college. i'm going to then collect it and hold it against them later. down right bizarre. jedediah: also just absurd everyone was a kid once and everyone did stupid stuff back in the day. if you are going to dig through everybody's file and yearbook and every comment ever made everyone is going to be vulnerable. ed: that is where we had the high school yearbook. not the college, not the medical school. high school. pete: you are right. jedediah: to what end does this go on that you realize people do grow and evolve. not to say all the behavior is justified or should be excused. if we are going to be digging through and not just their past and yearbooks in this age it's social media and tweets something you said 30 years ago in a comedy club. it is a scary time to be a human being who does make mistakes and does have to have an opportunity for redemption and for growth. pete: i would like to invite her on this program. this is not a remark. this is an op-ed. you sat at computer and typed it. when i'm watching the white boy who is now a white man by this point, is that not -- come explain. tell me more. jedediah: saying that too. pete: there is a double standard. it's terrible. ed: down right bizarre. might also explain what was going on capitol hill yesterday the acting attorney general matt whitaker, he is about to leave office and bill barr is expected to be confirmed in the next few days as the new attorney general for the president of the united states. you see him right there being sworn in. and democrats thought they had him cornered because they wanted to prove somehow because, remember, going back to when he was first appointed by the president. democrats started this narrative that he was put in place so the president could watch the mueller investigation, could interfere with the mueller investigation and maybe shut down the mueller investigation. guess what? none of that happened. the mueller investigation is still going on. we're still waiting for the report. and as whitaker testified under oath again and again, he's not interfering with the probe, watch. >> you wouldn't oversee a witch-hunt, would you. you would stop a witch-hunt, wouldn't you. >> you can spin the constitution all you want. as you sit here today. you just have to answer. >> if you want to ask the chairman for time of your own this is my time. >> how the heck did you become the head of the department of justice? >> i need to have my time restored so that you can behave appropriately. >> have you ever been asked to approve any request or action to be taken by special counsel? >> mr. chairman, i see that your five minutes is up and so. [laughter] we -- i am here voluntarily. jedediah: isn't he the kind of guy that can infuriate the left though. pete: that's it. jedediah: not taking any of their nonsense and political theater. this could have been over in two minutes him saying i didn't interfere in the investigation and i didn't have any conversations with the president or top white house officials with it the end. that should have been it. pete: college football player from iowa. they don't like him. is he white and they will don't like him. they play the identity politics game all the time. listen. ed: not because they don't like him because he is white. pete: i will take that correction. fair enough. but they don't like him because he works for the president and he has been critical of the mueller probe. as a result, he is then defending the fact that he didn't interfere with it they can't take that they are triggered by that very perspective. ed: you spoke last hour. jedediah: debbie lesko pete spoke to last hour and she has something to say about this democrat overreach. take a listen. >> this was theatrical show, character assassination. just another way to undermine president trump. it was really disgusting. i was quite sad to tell you the truths. they are overreaching and i think that's going to be good for republicans in 2020 because they are going so far to the left, so radical, so rude that i think the american public is going to wake up. i think it's going to backlash on them. ed: speaking an interesting truth. you have to look beyond this one hearing that you are rightly criticizing the idea that think about the democratic efforts to abolish the electoral college impeach the president. impeach the blanket blank we saw the first week. the democratic overreach might blow up in their face. jedediah: depends. makes me nervous, the democratic base has moved far left. i'm curious how this hits independent voters in the middle. pete: a lot of overplaying going on. pete: cory booker taking his support for the green new deal out of this world. >> and there is a lot of people now blowing back on the green new deal it's impractical. if we used to govern our dreams that way we would have never gone to the moon. you might take something for your heart... or joints. but do you take something for your brain. with an ingredient originally discovered in jellyfish, prevagen has been shown in clinical trials to improve short-term memory. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. to be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing it's best to make you everybody else... ♪ ♪ means to fight the hardest battle, which any human being can fight and never stop. does this sound dismal?

>> well, look, a lot of the voters of virginia are still in kind of a state of shell shock. they are stunned with all of these accusations that have been lining up one after the otherrenned there was one common theme. many of the voters were agreeing that rush to judgment for something that happened 30 years ago. i actually agree with that during the kavanaugh hearings, you know, i was one of the louder voices that was trying to calm down the mob that was trying to go after then judge kavanaugh now justice kavanaugh. there was definitely a con sis tense that eve one of these office holders have done something wrong, something i agree with. they had differences of whether they should resign oor not or which one should resign. definitely a controversy. jedediah: we have sound on that whether they should resign. take a listen. >> that the governor should resign? >> yes. >> i guess, yeah. >> a lot of people have been fired for less. >> i understand the call for the resignation of the governor. i don't think he should resign yet. >> he should not resign. >> no. i don't think so. >> neither one of them. >> the lieutenant governor is under ache sanctions too. >> yeah. >> accusations against him more true then he should resign as well. >> i feel like he should resign. same with justin fairfax. there should be a policy in virginia honestly. jedediah: from what i'm seeing most people there are saying they should in fact resign. was that surprising to you at all to hear that? >> yeah. it took me back. when i actually walked through with some of them. that would mean that the republican speaker of the house would become governor if all three ended up resigning. that also really surprised them. but, look, with the lieutenant governor fairfax in particular, you know, a lot of conservatives, including myself were talking about the presumption of innocence during the kavanaugh hearings. and there should be no difference even when a lieutenant governor, democrat governor goes through. this i think why should stop being a country that rushes to judgment. we saw this in the last couple weeks in many different media stories. voters of virginia almost have no direction to go. there is no real tangible way to move forward when your top three elected office holders are all under serious accusations like this. there is not a consensus exactly how to proceed. jedediah: charlie, quickly we have two very distinction accusations of sexual assault and rape and blackface. any big difference in terms of how people on the street responded separately to those two issues? more outrage by either? any big difference you noted? >> oh, with the lieutenant governor definitely more outrage behind what he is accused of doing. and those are crimes that could still be prosecuted and they are now multiple accusations. i remember when i went out there, that was before the second accusation came forward. political crisis and doesn't seem like a path forward of how to proceed. jedediah: we have to head out thank you for your input, charlie. democrats going wild with accusations. are more investigations what the american people want. andy mccarthy is coming up next. ♪ uh uh - i'm the one who delivers the news around here. ♪ liberty mutual has just announced that they can customize your car insurance so that you only pay for what you need. this is phoebe buckley, on location. uh... thanks, phoebe. ♪ only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ sleep number 360 smart bed. it senses your movement and automatically adjusts to keep you both comfortable. save 50% on the sleep number 360 limited edition smart bed. plus, 24-month financing on all smart beds. only for a limited time. just days in texas. crews preparing to break ground on six miles of new wall in the rio grande valley this week. congress green lighted $600 million for 33 miles of wall in the area last year. when you talk to agents down there they say they really want it and need it. and roughly 200 illegal immigrants were arrested in ice raids across north carolina this week. officials say 90 of them either have criminal convictions or pending criminal charges. another 50 of those arrested were previously deported. but reentered the u.s. illegally. ed?

but i think in the 2020 election year. the segment of the public that's most important to the democrats for the next 18 months or so is that portion of the democratic base that's most influential in determining hot nominee will ultimately be. and i don't know that that faction of the democratic base is representative of the broader country. so, i think even though the broader country probably doesn't want to have nothing but investigations of the president, they probably just want to know, look, is there probable cause that this guy committed a felony? if there's not, let's move on and get to the business of the country. but, there's this faction that's very influential to this 2020 process. ed: yeah. >> that's very, very interested in donald trump. ed: a faction that some would say has trump derangement syndrome. >> yep. ed: it may be driving some of the 2020 candidates further to the left. the president tried to call it out this week in the state of the union. watch. >> an economic micialg is taking place in the united states and the only thing that can stop it are foolish wars, politics, or ridiculous partisan investigations. [cheers and applause] ed: democrats immediately said he is trying to intimidate us into not investigating, when in fact, the president said, look, i'm more about not having you harass me and i found it interesting that shortly after the president made that statement you had the republican chairman of the senate intel committee say after two years we haven't found any collusion. >> yeah. well, i think he is setting up the table for 2020, too, ed. in other words, they want to get into the nitty gritty of these investigations and part of the reason they have so much to play with is the original sin of this investigation is that it wasn't a criminal investigation to start with. it wasn't triggered by solid evidence of a crime. so it's a sprawl and it's all over the place. and i think the president wisely, in my view, is going to try to set up the situation where it's on his side, here i am, trying to do the business of the country and we have all these important things to do. and they look like they are scurrying around looking under every rock for something under circumstances for two years real investigators have been looking for something and so far they haven't gotten anything. ed: and democrats promised in the midterms they were running on the economy and healthcare and all these kitchen table issues and to your point now they are secureying around in all kinds of investigations. andy mccarthy, appreciate you coming. >> in thanks so much, ed. ed: all right. now remember nancy pelosi's clap for the state of the union went viral. it's now getting a star-studded backing, of course yes in hollywood. we will tell you about that cory booker taking his support for the green new deal to a whole new level. >> the planet has been imperil in the past. who came forward from the scourge of nazi totalitarian regimes. we came forward. ed: stuart varney is here thrive react. he might have to go to the moon and back to give us his insight ♪ i've been taking care of business ♪ it's all right ♪ taking care of business ♪ [cell phone rings] where are you? well the squirrels are back in the attic. mom? your dad won't call an exterminator... can i call you back, mom? he says it's personal this time... if you're a mom, you call at the worst time. it's what you do. if you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance, you switch to geico. it's what you do. where are you? it's very loud there. are you taking a zumba class? it's very loud there.

joining us now retired u.s. bomb core particular admission who lost both his legs in a bomb blast in afghanistan, joey jones. joey, i have a personal connection to this. i know you do as well. i hear people that we know who run up against the bureaucracy at the v.a. and unfortunately they take their own lives in the process talk to us about this. >> this is something that is near and dear to my heart. i carry 24 veterans on my list. 24 veterans that die in combat. quite honestly it makes a lot of risk. i can deal with that it's my best friend from back home. a guy i grew up with. his dad is a dessert storm vet his dad is a football coach. he came back home in 2008. got addicted to painkillers and self medicate. and in 2012 with no other option he decided to take his own life. thought that was only way to quit inflicting pain on his family. when you look back what we were going through. myself, our other best friend keith and his family we were writing affidavits to have him put into detox fittings and doing everything we could and the v.a. told him they didn't have any room or any funding for inpatient treatment and he knew that just going to narcotics anonymous wasn't enough and he decided to take his own life. i've got a voice mail he left me five days before he took his own life and haunts me today. what it highlights is that the bureaucracy at the v.a. is so frustrating and sometimes so adversarial that we feel like we don't have anywhere left to turn. pete: joey, on an ongoing basis i hear this story from folks helping vets to try to get access to the v.a. and they still don't inside that institutional bureaucracy there seems to be no connection to the urgency. what is it about choice the ability for a veteran to get private care that you think is an important part of this solution? >> well, it's actually quite simple. in the v.a. facility, they don't have to compete for our business. they don't need to know our name our interest what we are up to, the big thing happening in our life. if we stop coming that's less work load. and they feel like we don't have anywhere else to go and for many of us we don't. the fact they don't have to compete for our business means they are not achieving a certain quality. they are achieving adequacy at best ore mediocrity at this. not to beat up on everyone works at the v.a. and culture and how these health facilities were ran. i was just in atlanta two weeks ago. i spent two hours driving around the parking lot looking for someone to park to go in five minutes and pick up a prescription and i got nothing but attitude from the people working in the parking lot. but that's the norm. that's not an exception. that's just how it works. and so they are overran. and most the things we go to the v.a. for we could go to someone that lives in our community, knows what we are up to. we can talk to them about that one traffic light that always goes too fast and things like that or the church that we go to and we can actually have a personal connection with a person that's making big decisions for our welfare. instead we go to something that's 30, 40, 50 miles away or to a local clinic that's well overran and have a doctor sit and look at a computer screen for 30 minutes asking me questions never made eye contact. it took me 18 months to meet my personal healthcare physician at the noonan v.a. that's the norm. those aren't anomalies. that's just what happens. pete: what a great case. you are smart enough to make decisions for yourself and if you feel like you would be treated better with people who know your name in your community, have you earned that choice. at least that's idea behind what president trump is trying to do with veterans choice. >> absolutely. pete: here's what the v.a. said on this article on suicide. suicide prevention remains the v.a.'s highest clinical priority. one life lost to suicide is too many. that's why the v.a. is implementing a wide range of preventative activities to address many different risk factors. joey, i know this is a priority. if you were to say one thing needs to change it today in the approach of the v.a. what would it be? >> it would be a voucher program. it would be to take all your pre-9/11 veterans, leave them in the v.a. system. take your post 9/11 veterans put them in a voucher and insurance company style program and slowly phase out the v.a. that's what i would do. pete: that's not what's happening right now out choice program the administration is pursuing is an attempt to give veterans an actual choice which means you don't have to default to the failing bureaucracy. joey jones, great insight. thank you for your service. god bless your friend and so many who have unfortunately taken their lice. joey, we are grateful to have you. >> thank you, pete. pete: tough subject. more than 20,000 illegals apprehended at the border -- 200,000. what does that show about the need for border security. plus, a teeth-whitening kit for 80% -- i wasn't ready for that transition. teeth whitening kit 80% off. we have mega morning deals just for you. jedediah is trying them. you will too. ♪ ♪ more than half of employees across the country bring financial stress to work. if you're stressed out financially at home, you're going to be too worried to be able to do a good job. i want to be able to offer all of the benefits that keep them satisfied. it is the people that is really the only asset that you have. put your employees on a path to financial wellness with prudential. bring your challenges. ♪ ♪ jedediah: you have never seen february deals like these and you will only find them here in our studio exclusively for "fox & friends" viewers. ed: here to break it all down is megan meany with mega morning deals. good morning again. >> good morning. happy saturday, everyone. time to start shopping. first of all remind everyone to hop on to friends@foxnews.com log on and look for the mega deals icon and this is where you will find this fun stuff. starting with storm safe radio and phone charger with all the bad weather we have been having all over the country. this is great to have in glove compartment or kitchen. it has a flashlight and three ways to charge your phone even if you don't have power. there is a hand crank. there is a solar panel. and a usb port. plus you get weather radio. jedediah: how much is that un81% off today. 21 bucks a good deal. detective scale. number one doctor office scale. digital. nice in bathroom. extra wide one if you are a big foot and then we have a stainless steel, gives you everything you want to know. 66% off today. that is 24 bucks. and those typically go for about 70. with all the coffee we drink and whatnot. a little wine. this is $21 today. 81% off. you fill the tray with bleaching jail. technology softens the whitening. 10 minutes a day. not even every day you will see the results. mineral makeup. supernatural, 75% off today. these typically go for $65. 16 bucks. this is london fashion week's official makeup. won natural beauty awards especially for the foundation. tons of products to choose from. eyes to face to lips. ed: you get all of this. >> you get to choose when you go on the site. you will seat options and these golf shirts are sold in all the top golf resorts and nordstrom. 79% off. weather proof. sweaters, jackets, again, log on to friends@foxnews.com. you will look for the mega morning deals icon and that's where you will find all these options. things sell out quick. so you guys want to get shopping and clicking. awesome deals today. wouldn't you say?

second sexual assault accusations. pete: david has the latest. >> a week ago it appeared it was governor northam going to step down following racist yearbook photo. second woman come forward accusing the lieutenant governor of sexual assault. the law firm representing meredith watson says quote mr. fairfax's attack was premeditated and aggressive, end quote. in that quote ms. watson shared the accounts of rain with friends in series of emails and text messages. we have statements from former democrats mates corroborating that ms. watson immediately told friends that mr. fairfax had raped her. the lieutenant governor says i deny this latest unsubstantiated allegation. it is demonstrably false. i have never forced myself on anyone, ever. i demand a full investigation into these unsubstantiated and false allegations. if fairfax doesn't voluntarily leave, a virginia delegate plans to impeach him. >> i believe these women. he needs to resign immediately. should the lieutenant governor fail to do so, on monday, i intend to introduce arlsz of articles of impeachment. >> more to the story the state's attorney general mark herring thought to take the governor's spot if northam and fairfax resign also admitted to posing in blackface in a school year boob book. so far he says is he staying foot. governor northam is staying in his position sent internal email to government employees yesterday apologizing for causing a distraction from their work. pete: david, thank you. appreciate it. democrats are trying to have it both ways trying to say resign publicly to virtue signal they are good people privately in back channels governor northam don't go anywhere. ed: some of them are. they are worried a republican is in line to potentially become governor if all three of

around and we are saying investigate it due process, due process, particularly when it comes to fairfax. now you see who are the partisan hacks. who are the people who are agenda-driven and who are the people actually protecting the due process in the country. we spoke to charlie kirk in the last hour talking about in virginia how do voters feel about whether these leaders should resign. he hit the streets yesterday before the second accusation against fairfax. and check out what people had to say. >> that the governor should resign. >> yes. i guess, yeah. >> a lot of people have been fired for less. >> i understand the call for the resignation of the governor. i don't think he should resign yet. >> he should not resign. >> no, i don't think so. >> neither one of them. >> the lieutenant governor is under accusations, too. >> yeah. the accusations if him are true he should resign as well. >> i feel like he should resign. same with justin fairfax there should be a zero tolerance policy like in virginia, honestly. >> a lot of the voters of virginia are still in kind of a state of shell shock they are stunned with all of these accusations that are been lining up one after the other. there was one common theme though. there were many of the voters were agreeing that we should not have a rush to judgment, but there is definitely a consensus that each one of these office holders have done something wrong, something i agree with. but they had differences of whether they should resign or not, which ones should resign. pete: pretty easy to be confused right now if you are a voter in virginia. who is telling the truth. who goes? who stays? it's a mess. pete: ed: i spoke to david bossie. he says he doesn't want any of them to resign even though a republican could take over. leaf all these democrats in power. let them all be confused. you have big state races. legislative races in virginia in 2019 that will set the table yes for 2020 where president trump lost virginia but it's been a swing state. carried by obama twice. hillary clinton once. maybe it could be up for grabs in 2020 if this chaos on the democratic side continues. sacred jed these are two very different issues not to conflate them when you are dealing with sexual assault and issues of blackface. we spoke to david webb as well about this. there is lot of nuances in this. we are going to find uncovered photos from years ago are going to surface and have to have a plan as a nation how do you deal with this? how do you deal with old yearbook photos and people at one time dressed up in halloween costumes that maybe weren't offensive back then or maybe were offensive but now are highly, highly offensive and deemed racist by many. pete: yes. jedediah: do those people resign. >> that's where the media has a responsibility to be responsible. the problem is in the trump era the rest of the media in this town have lost their mind. and so they go -- they jump on any little nugget if it serves their agenda. ed: you want to talk about a crazy story and extreme policy on the left. this is policy in action. a story you are probably not going it hear in a lot of other mainstream media outlets. a story that was outrageous at the beginning, horrifying, boyfriend of a woman who was five months pregnant killed her. she was a new york city real estate agent happened here in queens accused. charged with murder that was horrifying enough. the tabloids have been covering it blood soaked scene. now all of a sudden this morning we wake up to find out that this accused killer has now been spared a second charge of abortion because she was five months pregnant because of this new york law pushed by the democratic governor andrew cuomo signed into law which basically takes abortion out of the criminal code here and turns it into a quote, unquote, public health law. so this is a real life consequence where now this accused killer is facing one less criminal charge because of what andrew cuomo did. pete: it's the logical extent of the left. i do humanization of the fetus and the baby in the womb. if you believe it could be aborted all the way up until birth which is the implications hearing around the country. steve: offer after birth according to ralph northam. >> absolutely right. why would you charge someone with murder or abortion of that baby when that happens. ed: they don't consider it a baby. pete: that's contradiction in public policy that the left has hated for a long time. if you acknowledge it's a double murder or murder and abortion you are acknowledging that's a life inside the womb of that mother. when you dehumanize it their position becomes con sis at any time that babe is not alive until we say so. jedediah: the story also reminds you how this whole controversy in virginia started. it's easy to get caught up now. we are talking about blackface and talking about sexual assault charges. very serious stuff. it was very serious already when you had him coming out and talking about late-term abortion and abortion after birth in such an outrageous way defending it in such a way people should be outraged. i'm upset it took a photo from a high school yearbook to illicit that type of outrage a medical school yearbook. this guy was talking post delivery whether that baby was going to be helped to sustained that should have been reason enough for people across the country and political spectrum. what kind of democratic party too we have that wasn't outraged at that. pete: abortion will be a big issue going forward. interesting how these issues pop back up. abortion is a big issue. you saw the green new deal this week socialism will be a huge issue. but, of course, at the border will continue to be a big one, too. ed: absolutely. this is a serious issue. you go back to what the president was framing in the state of the union this week. his idea. this is his political view that the democrats have gone extreme on a range issues from abortion we were just talking about high taxes as high as 70, 80, 90% for the rich and the idea that democrats have been saying it's a manufactured crisis on the border. well, guess what? the new numbers are in. apprehensions at the border from october of last year through january of this year 201,000 or so. that's up 85% over the previous few months. the idea is the president has been talking about oh, there is this flooding at the border. democrats say a that's not true and b, it's a manufactured crisis. now the numbers come in and you say well, maybe it's actually real. and oh, by the way, this coming friday we have another deadline of some of the government agencies, the funding shutting down over this border situation. so will there be a funding deal or not? pete: up 85% over this time last year. still no wall. caravan's coming. still battling about it. maybe increased scrutiny and troops at the border. helping the border patrol so they are apprehending more people. these stats can cut both ways it does show that ultimately the demand is still there the threat is still there. and if we don't take it seriously it will continue to develop. jedediah: president trump has taken it seriously and so has vice president mike pence he has been out there front and center as of late talking about this issue saying we will not rest until the border is secure with personnel and barriers. take a listen. >> we're going to continue to work to secure our border, north, south, east and west. when it comes to our southern border, as the negotiations continue, we will not rest, we will not relent until our customs and border protection have the technology, the personnel, and the barriers required to secure our border. we're going to build that wall one way or another. i promise you. ed: there are reports that maybe there will be a deal as early as this weekend on border security funding. we have heard that before. pete: that will be a deal that will be highly scrutinized by reporters of the president and conservatives. now in the minds of many, not the time to cave or give. in. jedediah: glad to seat vice president backing up

ed: here to react columnist at the "washington times" charlie hurt. we have never seen democrats rush to judgment in a case like this, have we? >> no, no, no, no, no never. especially not in the middle of a political season when when you have 4,000 of them running for the nomination. of course they are rushing to judgment. you have got a guy here who has led an exemplary life and has achieved a pretty good honor in being elected to be lieutenant governor. and he hotly refutes these accusations. and obviously, you know, we ought to sit and listen to what the accusations are, listen to his defense. but there's no time for that among these democrats. and, of course, they are in a real problem here. because if they don't convince him to quit on his own, virginia's impeachment rules are pretty clear about the importance of -- they focus on things that happen in office. and neither of these things happened anywhere in office. and so it's going to be very hard for them to force him out if they don't simply convince him to quit. jedediah: charlie, even though they have rushed to judgment in both cases obviously have no respect for due process, don't you think there is a distinction though in how they reacted to both? when it was kavanaugh he was immediately declared guilty. there was a massive public hearing there was an effort to completely discredit him forever as a human being. here, what i see is yes, calls to resign before they have all the facts. it ends there the public humiliation. all of that stuff they haven't brought into the equation this time around, it seems. >> yeah. the kavanaugh situation certainly was, i would say, the lowest point i have ever witnessed in my time covering politics in washington. it was absolutely disgraceful. and you are right. it really was sort of a mob of sorts that went after him. and there was nothing he could say and there was no evidence that could be produced that would -- that would placate anybody. but, it is still, you know, there should still be some sort of due process. there ought to be some hearing of the facts, hearing -- and the real problem for, you know, even if fairfax does resign, if he quits, if he steps down, you are still going to have all these pictures lying around of northam in blackface and i assume that the same will emerge with herring at some point. those things will stick around for a long time. and i think it will make a lot of voter later wonder well, gee, who paid the price here? what happened there? ed: charlie, we have less than a minute, there is something i can't let pass, dick durbin the number two in the senate the other day was asked about this. leaders in both parties when something like this happens try to duck it. he said something to the effect of i'm not from virginia. >> it's a local issue. ed: it's a local issue. brett kavanaugh last i checked he is not from illinois and dick durbin's state but he had a lot to say about that. >> no. it's great point and also, yeah, the hypocrisy is just absolutely astonishing. especially and as we get closer and closer to the 2020 election it's going to only get worse. ed: yeah, indeed. charlie, appreciate you coming in. jedediah: thanks, charlie. >> thank you guys. jedediah: a love for country and passion for pickup truck. a wish for fallen marine's wish came true. generosity of a lot of people. story is coming up. >> i will stand by you ♪ i will help you through ♪ you can do ♪ it's time for the ultimate sleep number event on the sleep number 360 smart bed. it senses your movement and automatically adjusts to keep you both comfortable. save 50% on the sleep number 360 limited edition smart bed. plus, 24-month financing on all smart beds. only for a limited time. natural healthy looking teeth are white. natural enamel, dentin, which is that second layer of the tooth is yellow. consumption of very acidic foods can wear away your enamel. once they start wearing down, your tooth is going to look yellower, more dull. i recommend pronamel toothpaste because it helps protect and strengthen your enamel. it's going to make them more resistant to the acid erosion so that your teeth are not bothering you and you feel good about your smile. it's pro enamel. it's good for your enamel. it's a positive thing. i found a companyeans to who believes in me.rt. they look out for me. and they help me grow my career. at comcast it's my job to constantly monitor our network, prevent problems, and to help provide the most reliable service possible. my name is tanya, i work at the network operations center for comcast. we're working to make things simple, easy and awesome. ♪ pete: this is a very cool segment i'm honored to be a part of. sergeant nick walsh loved serving his country and loved his wife julie and two sons and loved his bronco truck. in fact he planned to pass his truck on to his sons when they turned 16 he never got the chance. the 26-year-old marine was shot and killed in iraq in 2007. it was his second deployment. almost 12 years later the truck needed a lot of work so julie told her boys a little fib. a little white lie that she had sold it but really, thanks to some very generous donations the beloved truck was restored and 16-year-old tristan got the birthday surprise his dad always wanted. watch. >> your dad is not here a little piece of him back.

>> you can spin it all you want. >> if you want time of your own. this is my time. how the heck did you become of the department of justice. have you ever been asked to approve any asks i see that your five minutes is up i'm here voluntarily. >> that was a nasty clap right there. >> he was there voluntarily. he said i didn't interfere in the molar investigation. i did speak about any of the details. they want all of these grand standing tangents. it plays into the cavanaugh deal too. he is going to undermine mueller. he hasn't done that. he certainly hasn't shut it down. what are you talking about. they don't like him because he is a trump supporter. about the scope and size of it. he has been a supporter of this president. you can't be the district attorney from the southern district of iowa. there's just this dripping condensation in the question is with these investigations into what and to what and some people are feeling. the original sin of this investigation is that it wasn't a criminal investigation to start with. it wasn't triggered by solid evidence of the crime. it's all over the place. i think the president wisely in my view is going to try to set up the situation where it is on his side here i am trying to do the business of the country and we have all of these important things to do and they look like they are stirring around looking under every rock for something. real investigators have been looking for something. so far they have not got anything. >> this is a big week for the president. another thing we learned about he was previously seen as a non- partisan panel again, it has been seen as a very nonpartisan committee. >> with all of this the presidents approval rating is going up. they are looking at actual issues. it is time for you to read headlines. i'm going to eat pizza hut anyway. he is just getting excited about all of those. they are lining up to praise that green new deal. from out right socialism. who is really pulling the strings for this democrats. it's not the platform of the democratic party he grew up with. he joins us next. nancy pelosi state of the union address. to be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing it's best to make you everybody else... ♪ ♪ means to fight the hardest battle, which any human being can fight and never stop. does this sound dismal?
