Hope you had a fantastic weekend. I am Brian Kilmeade. Let's get started. Coming up on the show tonight, among my great roster of guests making his first appearance as ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee.
He used to call him governor and colleague, and Joe Piscobow. Best-selling book out. He's going to do the media moments that matter, and we've got the co-host quiz. I'm actually going to be a contestant on that, and Lawrence Jones will actually be the host. But first, the fastest, most impactful monologue in America. This week's theme, no respect.
It's the story of my life. No respect. Doesn't get no respect at all.
No respect at all. Yes, like Rodney Dangerfield, President Donald Trump gets no respect from the big networks, still. Now, I thought after the profound win in November, the sequel would be a little bit different. That legacy media would understand that 2016 was not a fluke, and its historic comeback would lead to a traditional presidential deference treatment.
Remember, Trump turned one. The media couldn't believe that he won. They couldn't accept it. Here's the proof.
Since you are attacking our news organization... A lot of people did not think it was appropriate for you to be here today. You have pushed false claims about some of your rivals... ...for some tough questions. You're going to be fair. I'm going to be fair. Just be fair. We created the greatest economy in the history of our country, and the other side... You know that. You know that's not true.
It is totally true. No. Will you please like me? Please?
Please? Oh, I didn't say that. You know, that's so misleading the way I say jokingly. The way you said that is why people think of you and everyone else as fake news. Look, I'm not saying you shouldn't be direct.
I'm not saying your question shouldn't be strong. But in my view, you just heard disrespect. Disrespect to President Trump and disrespect to the office.
You know, color me naive. But after 100 days in office and with nearly 100 executive orders under his belt already, complete border security. I mean complete. Stopping DEI, getting men out of women's sports, attacking anti-Semitism head on, and anti-Americanism in higher education, just to name a few.
It's got some accomplishment. I thought after that, maybe, just maybe, we'd get some respect that his predecessor actually got. Every single time, or the few times he did interviews.
This is Joe Biden sitting down with mainstream media. They didn't tell you that they wanted troops to stay? No, not in terms of whether we were going to get out in a time frame all troops. They didn't argue against that. Your military advisor did not tell you, no, we should just keep 2,500 troops. It's been a stable situation for the last several years. We can do that.
We can continue to do that. No, no one said that to me that I can recall. So case closed, right?
He said, I can't recall. Well, that's a blatant lie. We know in retrospect it's a blatant lie. But he got away with it. With George Stephanopoulos, right? Well, who would have thought? Obviously, a Democrat by trade.
But Trump, on the other hand, has never been able to garnish that type of politeness, the courtesy from any network. Let's not forget the debate. Kamala Harris on ABC. They have abortion in the ninth month. They even have, and you can look at the governor of West Virginia, the previous governor of West Virginia, not the current governor, who's doing an excellent job, but the governor before, he said the baby will be born and we will decide what to do with the baby. In other words, we'll execute the baby.
There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it's born. Crime here is up and through the roof, despite their fraudulent statements that they made. President Trump, as you know, the FBI says overall violent crime is actually coming down in this country. Yet, yeah, by the way, that was wrong. Yet somehow the president still graciously decided to sit down with that network, with ABC, who, by the way, he sued for defamation and prevailed. They got another shot at being civil, not being weak, not being kind, just being fair. Your serve, Terry Moran. Do you think the reputation of the United States has gone down under your presidency? What are your methods?
How are you accomplishing this? He had MS-13 on his knuckle tattoo. He had some tattoos that are interpreted that way. But let's move on. Wait a minute. Hey, Terry. Terry. That was photoshopped.
So let me just... That was photoshopped. Terry, you can't do that. You could get him back.
There's a phone on this desk. I could. You could pick it up and with all the power of the presidency, you could call up the president of El Salvador and say, send him back right now. And if he were the gentleman that you say he is, I would do that. But the court has ordered you to facilitate that. I'm not the one making this decision. But the buck stops in this office.
No, no, no, no. I follow the law. I know you're doing the interview. I picked you because, frankly, I never heard of you, but that's okay.
I picked you, Terry. But you're not being very nice. I don't think anybody has a problem with tough questions. But the interruptions, the dismissiveness has got to go. But it's the smugness, the politeness, the lack of respect that just isn't right. Especially because the president, unlike Joe Biden, grants access to reporters all day, every day. I'm not saying you've got to give him easy questions, just direct ones, maybe acknowledge some gains, ask to explain some of the setbacks.
It's called balance. It's called respect for the office, at least. The networks didn't have it for 45.
Why not try it for 47, especially if he gives you another shot? I think, after all, he has sacrificed for this country and deserves that. Keep in mind, Joe Biden never talked to Fox. Joining us now, Oklahoma Senator Mark Wayne Mowen.
Senator, great to see you. Your reaction to that ABC interview with Terry Moran, back to the future, right? Yeah, it doesn't surprise us. I mean, the president is being very transparent. As you said, Biden never sat down with Fox.
Trump has taken the fight to the enemy's camp every single day. He's sitting down. He's very transparent. His cabinet hearings or meetings are open to the public. He's constantly doing interviews. There was weeks upon weeks where Biden never even spoke to the press.
He sits down with ABC, with CBS, with NBC. He does one-on-one meetings with them, and yet they completely dismiss him. And they just continue to spread their narrative about the president rather than, as you said, show a little bit of gratitude that he's at least willing to sit down and talk to you when he shouldn't. As you know, when those doors close, they must be looking at each other and saying, he just shut down the border, 99 percent of the border.
They said that was impossible for generations. At least acknowledge that. And then when it comes to scooping up criminals, that's kind of a good thing, I always thought. Now, the major thing, it doesn't seem to bother President Trump that much, and he doesn't hold grudges to his credit. But now all the pressure is on you guys in the Senate and the House to come up and pass legislation, the so-called big, beautiful bill. I'm already seeing some divides, not that that's unhealthy, but it definitely shows people that are getting uneasy. For example, when it comes to Medicaid, I saw that 19 in the House signed up, mostly the Freedom Caucus, and said, we expanded Medicaid too much, we got to rein it in. President Trump says we can't cut Medicaid.
How do you square that circle? Well, I think you need to — we've got to get people in the room and actually have a conversation with them. So what are we talking about when we're cutting Medicaid?
Are we cutting Medicaid to people that have the benefits that qualify for it, or are we trying to cut the waste and the fraud and abuse out of the Medicaid, where some of these blue states are taking advantage of it? There's a path there that if we can get everybody in the same room, we can actually have a conversation, not go out and make assumptions, but be able to deliver for the American people what the president has asked, what he's promised and the promises that he wants to keep. I think there's a path forward here, Brian, but people are going to have to sit down and talk. Let's use Chip Roy, for example. Chip sometimes comes out with some outlandish ideas, which is great, but he also comes up with some good ones every now and then. But he's wanting to raise corporate taxes.
Well, that's a nonstarter. But when we start talking about Medicaid, he actually has some ideas, but some of them may go a little far. But there's a point of how we can negotiate. We don't have to compromise our values, but we can negotiate and deliver one big, beautiful bill for the American people, and that's really focusing on the physical responsibilities and permanent taxes for us moving forward.
And possibly the biggest challenge is the Republicans who won in blue states, like New York. Mike Lawler says, I have to raise the SALT tax. What is that? A deduction for local taxes, which are high. So if I don't do that, I'm going to lose and you'll lose the house.
How do you square that circle? Well, you know, Mike is Mike's very passionate about this issue, and we've had hours of conversations with Mike about this. And he's not wrong. But at the same time, we can allow New York to be able to offset their lack of responsibility by providing, you know, sanctuary cities and hotels and benefits for illegals by the same time making, you know, landowners and homeowners pay for it. And the way they offset that is they want the American people or the taxpayers in Oklahoma, let's say, to offset that because they can now use their taxes as a or their property tax as a write off. Well, that's not right either. But once again, this is something that, Brian, that we can find somewhere of a happy medium.
But then at the end of the day, people in New York need to decide if they want to pay these higher taxes or not or move to another state like Florida, which we've seen them do literally by the hundreds moving out of New York because they're high property tax. But I understand Mike's issue. Mike is very issue about it by the thousands. Well, I don't live there.
I kind of like Oklahoma. Senator Mark Wayne Mullen, always great. Thank you so much, sir. Have a great week. It's going to be a consequential one.
Thanks for having me on, Brian. The fighting in the Iran-Iraq war has expanded, something that President Reagan said today threatens American interests in the Persian Gulf. The Washington Post reported today that the Israeli air mission over Syria on September the 6th occurred after the Olmert government and the White House exchanged intelligence on the target, that the Israeli Defense Force also sent ground units into Syria that night. That's what happened last time. Israel was told not to act on their own behalf. We told them not to act, but they have this thing called self-preservation. They acted.
It is just a matter of time, I think, and some experts believe, before they act again when it comes to Iran, regardless of where our talks are at. Now it's time to bring in for the first time. I'm interviewing him with his new job. He's the ambassador to Israel, former Arkansas governor and former full-time employee with Fox News, Ambassador Mike Huckabee. Ambassador, great to see you.
Thanks for doing your first interview with us. Your reaction, you lived those moments when Israel took action on their behalf, when nuclear programs started in Iraq and Syria. I can't imagine them sitting around much longer when it comes to Iran. The reason they have an anxiety is because for 46 years, the Iranians have said they're going to destroy Israel. This is not something they just started talking about.
They've done it since 1979. And Brian, we've got to remember, they also say once they get rid of Israel, they're coming after us. So I hope talks can result in something where Iran completely walks away from nuclear ambitions and realizes that both President Trump and the Israelis have said you're never going to have a nuclear weapon. The sooner they understand that, the better. I hope they come to their senses on that. But if they don't, President Trump, a week ago on Air Force One on the way to the pope's funeral, made it very clear, somebody asked him, are you going to let Israel drag us into a war? He said, nobody's going to drag us into anything. If Iran doesn't give up their nuclear ambitions, I'm not going to be drug into something.
I'm going to lead something. So I think the president has made it clear, certainly the Israelis have, and we hope and pray for peace. But who knows what the Iranians will do?
They've been consistent for 46 years, and it hasn't been good. Ambassador, I have to tell you, our higher education is full of anti-Semitism, especially at the Ivies. I imagine that's resonating also in Israel, and they fully realize this. There's a pro-Palestinian movement, anti-Semitic movement, that is financed from where you now work. And I wonder what that means to the people of Israel. Are they as concerned as President Trump is, and are they heartened that he's taking action, holding back their money, cracking down and looking to deport the troublemakers?
Absolutely. You know, Brian, I think people need to understand just how much of a friend President Trump has been to Israel in his first term, moving the embassy to Jerusalem, where I work every day. He recognized Jerusalem as the undivided, undisputed capital of the Jewish people. He recognized the Golan Heights as sovereign territory of Israel.
The Abraham Accords, step after step, he's a hero here, and he ought to be. But there's a little more to it, in that right now there is a wave of global anti-Semitism that is irrational. And you know, if you're a Jew in Israel, in fact, if you're a Jew anywhere, you have to be concerned that this level of, and I just call it crazy hate, it's not because the Jews have done anything to them, it's just because they're Jews.
Golda Meir said it best back in the 1970s when she said, the reason we have a secret weapon is because we have nowhere else to go. And that's the way people in Israel feel. Ambassador, how are you adjusting? How's your family adjusting? What is it like?
You've done a lot of things in your life, but never anything like this. I'm loving it. I'll tell you this, I'd rather live in Jerusalem than Washington, D.C. every day of the week and twice on Sunday. It's a wonderful city.
People are hospitable and kind. I love the job. It's incredibly intense. I can't even begin to tell you that this is not a ceremonial ambassadorship.
The biggest decisions I make have nothing to do with what kind of hors d'oeuvres are going to be served in the next social gathering. It is intense, but it's also incredibly rewarding because it's a place I've been coming to 52 years. Even my dogs are adjusting and we're finding it a delightful place to live.
I knew you would not take a show horse job. You're a work horse and you want to be in the eye of the storm and you're definitely in it. And they're lucky to have you and we're lucky to have you over there. Ambassador, thanks so much. Great to see you. Let's stay in touch. Love it, Brian. Thank you.
All right. Appreciate you coming on. Meanwhile, ahead on One Nation, a co-host quiz like no other. I'm in the hot seat against my one on one with Ainsley Earhart hosted by Lawrence Jones.
Going to be exciting. But first, the media moments that matter with the legend himself, comedian, best selling author Joe Piscobow. He has the honors and the VCR this week. Let's see what the tape shows and catch me on stage where Joe is very comfortable.
History, liberty and laughs. I'm going to be in Dayton, Ohio, with Fox Nation, June 21st, Victoria Theatre, Dallas, Texas, August 23rd, Winspear Opera House. Don't be last. And in September on the twenty seventh Dominion Energy Center Carpenter Theater. I want to see everyone out in Richmond.
Go to Brian, kill me dot com VIP tickets available. Bring up the music. Let's go to break.
Want the effect instead? All right. It's everyone's favorite segment. Every week I give out my company VCR.
I give it the TV guide and the remote and a bunch of VCR tapes. And this week I chose Joe Piscobow, one because he's a great guy. Number two, his new book is out called Average Joe, the memoirs of a blue collar entertainer. Joe Piscobow, I'm sorry to pull you off during the book tour, but I gave you the VCR. I gave you the tapes. You did. Right. And they got a book for you and I signed it.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it. I was going to buy it and that would have been revenue in your pocket.
But not anymore. Now I'll resell it because Joe Piscobow signed it. So, Joe, you know, when I gave you the VCR, the assignment. Yeah.
I've talked to friends of yours. You did nothing else all week. All you did is watch everything.
Locked up. Did you come up with anything? Yeah. Well, you know what? I had to work the VCR first. You know what I mean?
What button is this now? So. So. And then, you know, you had to play record. So, you know, I don't want to say anything bad about anybody, but Chuck Todd at NBC like kind of blamed Joe Biden's mental decline as a right wing kind of initiative. Like it really didn't happen. Like they didn't ignore the story. You know, on my morning show, I don't even talk about this, so it was refreshing to be able to do it.
I don't know what they're thinking about. We knew the decline was there from day one. By the way, I don't want to say anything bad about Biden either because we knew it. But now what kind of cover up a cover up from day one? We know he had a problem. Well, you know, you said you taped it.
I don't have proof of it. Do we have do we have the tape? Can we listen?
Let's go. I have a real sort of problem with is this rewriting of history about whether the traditional media whose fault is it that Joe Biden's was politically stupid? Whose fault was it that a whole bunch of people around Joe Biden were were numb to the fact that their candidate was even more unqualified than in the public side than Donald Trump? This is not a media failure. This is a failure of the Democratic Party.
This is an attempt by some to virtue signal. And it's this horrible sort of pitting different news organizations against each other when ultimately the people at fault are Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Jill Biden, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, every elected member of Congress. The Democratic Party let that disaster happen.
All right. First off, Chuck Todd seems so angry that Trump won. Number two is, listen, there's two things. One's politicians.
What's going to happen with their team is their team. But as a reporter, he was the anchor and meet the press for a long time, Joe. As a reporter, just report that Joe Biden can't get off the stage. Was that NBC we were watching? Oh, no, he's actually he's on his own now because he left the network. But for him not to report when he reported on the Russia hoax for two, three years. Yeah.
How could he blame the right wing? Yeah, I don't know how people can watch it. And I think that's why he's not in NBC anymore, because even they see it now. You know, what's frustrating to me is that a lot of these folks, I don't even play it on my show on the AM 970, the morning show, you know, I don't even play any of that.
It's fun to do it here with you now. But you know why? Because this is the incidental media now. This is the irreverent media.
Not important. This is Brian Kilmeade, you, Fox, everybody. We are the mainstream media now. Salem in the morning, we're the mainstream media. Sometimes you don't want to play, but it's fun to talk about. But I like when you said Brian Kilmeade and then others, you led with me, like I am the media, which in my small mind.
And I have a life hack for you too. You know, mine absolutely. Arthur is.
Arthur Lee's the best. But meanwhile, you also, I forced you to watch CNN. Yes. And you came up with a clip that outraged you.
It ain't easy, I'll tell you it ain't easy. Right. And let's go over to the White House and watch what's blurred. The Trump administration is approaching its first 100 day mark with a full court press on the issue of illegal immigration, and they really don't want you to miss it. So they subtly and tastefully decked the White House North Lawn with dozens of yard signs featuring photos of people that the Trump administration claims are in the country. Each poster saying arrested and listing the alleged offensive with which they have been charged. CNN is working to confirm the identities and if there are actual allegations against these people. Until then, we are blurring their identities. So they think the president lied, made up pictures and fake murders and rapes to put them on the law. Do you believe this?
It was the best. Somebody tweeted something out really funny. They put pictures of Hillary, you know, of Obama, you know, of Brennan. Maybe that should have been on the law, too.
It was ridiculous that they did that. Absolutely. I have to make the point. Give me give me 15 seconds.
Don't show any of it. One day Fox should be, you know, free of all the what was the mainstream media. They're not the mainstream media anymore. Donald Trump came in. We took over. We own it now.
It's the golden age of America. We need a second, Joe. Yeah, go, go, go. If we start doing that, I won't have a segment.
I need this segment. Whack them. Whack them all.
Whack them all. So listen, I found something really important. I'm going to try. I'm going to take over this segment because you saved SNL along with this guy named Eddie Murphy.
And I found it out in really looking over this book and talking to the archivist. Thank you. Here's a great moment.
The show's Joe and Eddie saving a classic series. You love me as say one might love the state of Connecticut or the Liberty Bell like you love the Liberty Bell. Or are you saying that you love me, you know, like a lover, like a man loves a woman? I'm saying that I'm crazy about you, sir. I've been crazy about you ever since we met back in flight school and I became an astronaut just so I can be close to you.
And I volunteered for this trip so we can spend some time together. I love you, sir. I'm going to abort the mission, Bob. You're making this very hard on me, Paul. I don't know what to do. Love me back. That is hysterical.
What are your thoughts watching that? You know, he don't forget. He's like 19, 20 years old. Long Island's finest.
So you would be too old for him? Yeah. Stop. You had to go there.
You didn't have to go there, right? You know, Brian, you're Long Island's finest. And you know what, Eddie, out of Hempstead, Long Island, man, it's just amazing to see the kick of my life. And we wrote about it in the book and I give you all the inside line of Eddie Murphy and his pal Piscopo on Saturday Night Live back in the day when you're right. It was very tenuous back then. Very tough because we had to save that show and people would go like this, by the grace of God, we made it, you know? You did.
Yeah. It was a great, you know, how they had different classes, that you had a great class. Pick up this book.
You'll be inspired by it. Average Joe, the memoirs of blue collar and blue collar entertainment. Joe Piscopo is still going strong with your great show in the morning and great to see it.
Thank you, my brother. And he does impressions in Sinatra. That's right.
That's right. Sundays with Sinatra. Kill me at 10 o'clock in the morning on WABC in New York and Sundays with Sinatra.
Just came back from there just now. Thank you very much. With your permission by the power vested in me, could I lock out now or are you just going to keep talking, Joe? I thought you were a professional. Go ahead. You were supposed to be a professional. That was your goodbye. All right. Thanks so much, Joe.
Great to see you. Democrats in disarray. Why Chuck Schumer could be in the crosshairs.
Oh boy. A minute identity crisis in the party. Our political panel weighs in on that and more. Don't move.
Gary. Welcome to Fox News Live, I'm Ashley Strohmeyer in New York. President Trump laying out his vision for the country in a new wide ranging TV interview. He addressed fears of a recession and due process rights. Mr. Trump also making headlines for saying that he's not ruling out military force to take control of Greenland, citing strategic and economic reasons. He is also discussing his quest to make Canada the US's 51st state, though he doesn't believe military force will be needed there. But President Trump also added he now does not believe he will seek a third term. Jury selection begins in the coming hours in Sean Diddy Combs highly anticipated federal sex crimes trial. The hip hop mogul has spent the last eight months in a New York City jail after being indicted on sex trafficking and racketeering charges.
Now, if he's convicted on all counts, he could face life in prison. I'm Ashley Strohmeyer back to One Nation with Brian Kilmeade. You need an agenda. Did you hear you're not united around what we're united around guaranteeing health care to all people. Are we united in tackling a corrupt campaign finance system? Both the Democrats biggest communications problems and far too many are still relying on the old tactics.
Chuck, she wrote a very strong letter with eight strongly worded questions. What more can you ask of a leader of that part is exactly right. That's not going to make you shaking your boots.
I don't know what is what's going on here. Dems aren't getting along with Dems. Chuck Schumer could be the next Democrat, the target of Bernie Sanders and Jen Psaki. Don't pronounce the P as they take aim at the future of their party, slamming the Senate minority's claim that the left is united.
I don't think they agree with that. Joining me now, I'm on my panel, cohost of the podcast. What the hell is going on? Fox News contributor, Washington Post columnist Mark Thiessen and a senior fellow at AEI, Daniel Pletka. Danielle, have you ever remembered the Democrats so publicly divided? They're certainly making a circus of it.
I don't remember a time like this, maybe, maybe 20 years ago or so, but their popularity is so low. They can't get along with each other and they can't figure out what their message is. They've got problems on every front and I don't blame them for being mad at each other. Someone's got to get it together. And you know what? They have legitimate, there's a legitimate divide.
It's not personal, Mark. They have a divide on which direction the party should be going. Somebody's like, I'm a socialist and I got big crowds. And you have Chuck Schumer who wants to pretend as if he's got the youth vote. And then you have David Hogg who says, I want to get rid of all the old people. Yeah, I've got a suggestion for them, not the direction they've been going for the last four years.
That would be a good, that would be a good shift. You know, yeah. Hakeem Jeffries the other day said, this is the worst hundred days in the first hundred days in American history. It's like, did you miss the lip of the previous 1400 days? The worst, the worst inflation in 40 years. Worst border crisis in American history. Worst crime wave since the 1990s. Worst foreign policy disaster in Afghanistan. First worst land invasion of Europe since World War II.
I mean, it's not like they, they were actually, you know, crowning themselves in glory for the last 1400 days. So shift direction. Shift direction. Let's shift topics. This week with all the crazy stuff going on with the GDP, the jobs numbers.
Michael Walz is out of his position. There's a big story that you're all over and very much a part of, and that's the mineral deal sign between the US and Ukraine. Not only do we need the material, the rare earth material, I think Ukraine needs the partnership.
They need a way to pay for the material and the weapons to be successful. Can you put a perspective for the layman, not all over this conflict like you are, what what this means and why Russia is so upset? Well, so what it means is that Russia's lost.
They've lost the war because Russia wanted to invade and conquer Ukraine. And now the United States has gone into business with Ukraine. We are invested, not figuratively, but literally in a sovereign, free and independent Ukraine.
We're going to have, we're going to have cranes, we're going to have earth movers in there where we're going to be doing business with them. And that's a huge defeat for Vladimir Putin because, you know, we only make money off of this deal and we only get the rare earths that we need because we don't want to be dependent on China for these rare earths. We only get those if Ukraine is a sovereign country. If Vladimir Putin comes in and takes over the country, he's not going to give us the money to pay us back for the weapons that we gave Zelensky to fight Russia.
So this is a huge, this is almost as important as the peace deal itself. Danielle, I think Russia's got to pay the price if they think they're just going to walk away and embarrass President Trump by not even coming to the table legitimately looking for a way to stop the fighting. I don't think they're legitimately even putting an effort in here. No, so you know what, Brian, at the conclusion that I've come to about this is that the Russians actually believe the anti-Trump propaganda that they hear in the United States, right? They believe Trump is on their side. They believe Trump wants them to win. They believe Trump is on Team Putin. And of course, when this happened, they were furious because the guy who they thought was their guy, because the mainstream media and the Democrats have been telling them that for years, suddenly betrayed them. This was, this was amazing. And I totally agree with Mark for once that the Russians are basically the losers here.
I do too. And I think one thing is pretty clear. The central bank's going to get sanctioned and maybe the oil sales, people who buy it are going to start paying the price and maybe not be able to do business with us, the same thing with Iran. Finally, on a fun note, Republicans, I'm going to say this and people are going to think it's fiction, but Republicans are getting the Gen Z vote. I don't know how they're doing it, but in every poll, Mark, have you figured out why for the first time in your lifetime, 22 to 29 year olds are favoring Republicans over Democrats? Well, so what's interesting about that poll is that the 22 to 29 are plus 6.4 for Democrats, but the 18 to 21 are plus 12 Republican.
Why is that? The younger Gen Z, what was their formative experience? The COVID lockdowns. Their experience with government was shutting them out of their schools, forcing them into online school, forcing them to give up all their activities and their friendships and of causing a mental health crisis, and then they got to college and saw the anti-American, anti-Semitic protesters take over their campuses and spew hatred and make it impossible for them to experience their college education. I think this younger generation of Gen Z has been radicalized by these experiences and they're going to be the generation that saves us. Real quick, Danielle.
So what I love about this is, first of all, this is a poll that comes from students at Yale University, number one, and number two, the way we saw it is that 18 to 21 being plus 12 Republican really means that being a conservative is the counterculture of the 21st century, which I think is amazing. Right. Amazing. Well, thanks to you guys.
I know what the hell is going on. I appreciate it. And have a fantastic week. We've been in every week.
It's going to be consequential. Yes. Thanks guys. Maybe you'll come on one day. Can we get you on the podcast, Brian?
Maybe. It's going to be an invitation. And don't cut this out.
They won't. Nice, guys. Thanks so much. Meanwhile, next, the face-off you've been waiting for, me versus Ainsley in the co-host quiz, Don't Move.
I run hot when I sleep and I think... It's an exciting time and it's a very unique time. Normally, if you see a two-shot of me and Ainsley Earhart, you'd be thinking we'd do an interview. I'm going to interview you about a book or some special you're doing or a series, but it's going to be a little different now. It is time to do the co-host quiz. We're going to square off, but we need a host.
Do you know anybody 6'5 that gets up every morning from 6 to 9 a.m. and is on Fox and Friends? Mm. Mm. Mm. Mm. Mm. Mm. Mm. Mm. Mm. Mm.
It's exciting! The trump. All right. Okay. All right.
I got to do the... Right, absolutely. All right.
Now, as host, I usually forget right down the business. Okay. I'm going with all this jockeying around. Look at what it says.
He's taking over already. He can't do it. Okay.
Questions for Ainsley for ladies first. Okay. This is the question. When Brian travels on a plane, which seat must he have? This is a good one. So it's aisle, middle, or... Multiple choice.
Aisle, middle, or... Everyone loves the middle. Hm. Hm.
Can I call a friend, Lexi? Chief of staff. So badly. I want to say middle. That's hilarious. Well, I'm a middle child. You want me to say that so that I will lose. But I'm not going to say middle. What are you going to say? I am going to say you probably, all right, let me think about your personality. I would like aisle so you can go to the bathroom. You probably like windows so you can stay to yourself and do your own thing. But you like the aisle because you want everyone to see you. I'll say aisle. That was good.
I knew it. You want everyone to see you. Who would ever want the window? The guy falls asleep next to you? You got to hop over. What if you want to sleep against the window? What if you want to see the clouds? I'd have to be drinking a lot. I can help you. It's your turn.
Stop all the banter. So which one of these jobs did Ainsley have growing up and you get multiple choice? I would say babysitter, babysitter or dog walker. I would say babysitter big. You know why? I could just see her responsible, looking to earn some money, get out of the house.
You want to get out of the house. You weren't on the athletic team, is that correct? I loved babysitting with the people who left me pizza money.
And they had a nice house. How many kids could you handle it once as a team? As many as they wanted to give me. I had the best time. I was a great babysitter. I feel like we are learning each other right now. This is incredible. This is the heck of a start. This is about Brian.
In 1993, when I was one year old, Brian was part of the announcing team for the inaugural of which sports organization? Soccer. Of course. Is it multiple choice? No.
And you are wrong. UFC. It was the UFC.
Can you believe that? The fighting championship. Your fiance loves UFC. You should be talking about me a lot.
All right. I'll start doing that. I'll start talking with my fiance about another man.
What could go wrong? It's going to go great. I don't think you're going to like this question. This is for you, Brian. So which Fox host would Ainsley say she has learned the most from? Oh, I know exactly what she's going to say. No, it's for you.
It's for you. Fox and Friends host? Oh, no, I know. I know exactly who you pick. I'm going to say you say Steve. You're wrong.
Are you crazy? This was an easy one. It's Sean Hannity.
How did you not know? He said Fox and Friends. No, just Fox. He said Fox and Friends. Did I say Fox and Friends? The problem with a rookie host. This is a problem with a rookie host.
Where did it go? Wait a second. Did he say Fox and Friends or Fox? No, Fox host. Did I say Fox and Friends? No, I said Fox.
They checked the tape. Sorry. Look at this. But you know she always defends Brian.
It's unbelievable. Everyone takes your side all the time. Anxiously has your back and y'all both were wrong. Okay. All right.
So Anxiously, this is for you. I should give you an ant for that. So which actress did Brian make out with on the Kirby Catch-What? You did? Yeah.
It's part of the job. Like this. How did you explain it to your wife? It was Susan and Lucci. Oh, that's true. And they made out and make kisses.
Susan Lucci said it's too much. Right. And evidently there's a trick to it. You put your hand like this. Like this. And then y'all made out. And yeah, no one has made out with that. She doesn't get cable at home.
She has no idea what I do for a living. Did you go home? There it is. Oh my God. Did you see that? Wow. Isn't that amazing? That was very real.
Thank you very much. I know. And that went right to all my children. If you told me that was fake, I wouldn't have believed you.
No. That's how good I am. She was still like pressed up against you. It was her goal. It was like body to body. Body to body. That was skin to skin. A lot of women.
That was chest to chest. The only thing that stopped us, we ran out of time. Okay.
We're going to run out of time real soon. Okay. If Asa were stuck on a desert island, what's the first thing she complained about? Oh, this is good. Oh my God.
She's stuck in the real zone. I would say. This is so funny. I would say.
This is so good. No makeup. Are you kidding me? That would be rough. That might be a nice break. You complain about this every single day.
It would be no space here. Oh, that's one of my things. It's incredible. Even in the Caribbean.
Yeah, but you've got to think about it. There's no electricity. It's incredible.
Battery operated. That was just bad. All right. That was bad. I did that on you.
What's the score? So Brian, you've got one. I have. I have.
You guys have been doing so bad. So Asa's got two and Brian has one. Okay.
All right. So this is one for you, Asa. So Brian loves coffee. Drinks it every morning on the Fox & Friends set. But there's a special coffee he gets in his hometown. What's the secret ingredient?
This is really good. He likes so much stuff. Sometimes it's chai tea. He's a weirdo. Sometimes it's a pumpkin. Whatever they have. Sometimes it's the Easter egg nog.
Sometimes it's the Christmas spectacular. I don't know what the heck this answer is. All right. Read the question one more time.
Okay. So he loves coffee. But there's a special coffee he gets in his hometown. What's the secret ingredient? The Massa Piqua matzo ball spice. It's peanut butter. It's peanut butter. What was that? Because he says he lives in Massa Piqua and it's matzo pizza.
Half Jewish, half Italian. But I would say this. Who told you that? I don't know.
You must have called my house because I only get peanut butter in Massa Piqua. Really? Great research.
I think it was Lexi. Oh, my goodness. You have a team of researchers.
You need a team of researchers. Oh, that's true. Oh, wow. By the way, very well done. We love you.
But you need a team of researchers. You do. Okay.
All right. This is the final question for Brian. If Ainsley had to survive on only one fast food chain for a year, what would it be? Chick-fil-A, Waffle House or McDonald's?
Oh, my gosh. One, I would just say, well, if she has to eat on Sunday, she'd be in trouble. True.
I would fast. I would say Waffle House. That's John's favorite.
You're wrong. It's Chick-fil-A. Chick-fil-A. Yeah. You should have known that. I'm told. I don't eat a lot of fast food. I know.
I should have done that. I love them because they are closed on Sunday. So what's the final score, Lawrence? Well, Ainsley, two.
Brian is one. All right, so, Lawrence, great job. Thank you so much for this, Ainsley. Ainsley, you get a choice of your Brian Kilmeade apparel. Again, she gets two. What do you want? You already have my mug.
This is going to be two. Maybe a shirt? Do you want a shirt? Can we pop it up? Should I get two mug? Can we pop it up? Let me see. What do you think I should get? You pick for me. How about an adjustable hat?
Show them you have something to wear around the house. Okay, what does it say? Brian Kilmeade? It says One Nation with Brian Kilmeade. One Nation. Okay, let's do that.
A red hat. Thank you. Beautiful. All right, maybe next time, Brian. Lock us out. All right, we'll see y'all. We'll be right back. Before you go, your sneak peek of the week.
You ready? President Trump to meet with Canada's Prime Minister, Mark Carney. Just won a big election. He'll be at the White House. Pretty sure that he campaigned against Trump.
That should be tense. Expect movement in Trump's big, beautiful bill this week. The Ways and Means Committee and the Energy Committee need to meet to prep their sections, and someone's got to compromise, and let's talk religion. The conclave to elect a next pope.
Pope Francis's successor begins on Wednesday. Look out for the white smoke. And Paramount begins mediation with Trump's legal team over the edited Kamala Harris 60 Minutes interview, which, by the way, was nominated for an Emmy and jury selection to begin for Sean Diddy Combs.
