I'm Emily Compagno along with Jessica Charloff, Jesse Waters, Dana Perino and Greg Gutfeld. It's five o' clock in New York City and this is the five. We begin with a FOX News News alert. President Trump is currently speaking in Kentucky for his affordability tour. Much more on that later. So first to the latest on epic fury as US forces decimate Iran's navy. Centcom announcing it took out 16 Iranian mine lane ships. With Trump telling Axios about the operation's resounding success, saying this quote, that the war with Iran will end soon because there is practically nothing left to target. The president also putting Iran amid reports the terror regime is putting mines in the Strait of Hormuz, threatening Iran with destruction on a quote, level never seen before. Here's the president today with the latest.

Jesse Waters
The military is unbelievable. The job they're doing, I would say, to put it mildly, way ahead of schedule. We've knocked out their navy, their military in all forms. We've got knocked out just about everything there is, including their leadership. Twice we knocked out twice their leadership. And now they have a new group coming up. Let's see what happens to them. But 47 bad years we suffered with them. Not only us, the rest of the world. We're doing our job.
- [02:07]
Emily Compagno
And as the war rages on, Democrats and their allies in the media are cooking up bizarre new conspiracy theories like the View, thinking that Trump started a war in order to distract from the Nancy Guthrie case.
- [02:21]
Greg Gutfeld
Why haven't we been talking about Savannah Guthrie and what's going on there? This is meant to get us so worked up that we are unable to see anything else. I just came from a two hour closed door classified briefing on the war.
- [02:40]
Jesse Waters
Just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent.
- [02:43]
Greg Gutfeld
We are not going to be able to achieve any of our stated objectives.
- [02:47]
Jesse Waters
This is a disaster of epic proportions.
- [02:51]
Emily Compagno
Meanwhile, the Democrats are freaking out over our troops getting some surf and turf. A new watchdog report claiming that Secretary Hegseth Department of War spent $93.4 billion on grants and contracts last September. Money that had to be spent due to a use it or lose it policy similar to what previous administrations have done. And the big liberal outrage was over the food. 2 million on Alaskan king crab, nearly 7 million on lobster tail, and 15 million on ribeye steak. Oh, and there's also ice cream. Gavin Newsom's press office pounced by saying this, quote, Hegseth blowing $93 billion of taxpayer money in one month. And Kamala's HQ staff joined in tweeting, hey, Doge, where you at? But Jesse, isn't lobster tail worth it?
- [03:43]
Jesse Waters
Yeah, I mean, what are Democrats arguing that troops don't deserve surf and turf? What should they be eating, PETA? Come on. Every Pentagon does this. Biden just spent billions on ribeyes and lobster in 2024, right when he was going out the door. It's actually history in the United States military. Usually when you get surf and turf, you're about to deploy overseas or you're about to go on a dangerous mission. So when everybody gets their food, they're like, oh, where are we going? And where did they go? I think we can all see the United States is the best military in the world. We have the number one economy. We have the most advanced technology. We issue the world's reserve currency. A small weeks long bombing campaign of the Iranians does not qualify as a quagmire. Does not qualify as a catastrophe or a strategic failure. Let me see if I understand this correctly. The Democrats bribed the Iranians and they said that was working. And they took the money and they built missiles and buried their nukes deeper underground. So Trump bombed the nukes and the missiles. And Democrats say that's not working. That doesn't make any sense. The mission is very clear. You disarm the regime so they can't threaten Americans and they can't use the weapons to protect their nuclear program. Now, I don't know when the regime's going to collapse. I don't know even if it's going to collapse. But I do know Ayatollah junior Hasn't been seen. He hasn't even said a word. We think he's underground with broken legs. Who knows? He barely won the vote with the clerics. The they don't like them either. And I do know over the last 24 hours, the Iranians fired seven missiles. Seven. This is the most accurate aerial campaign in the history of warfare. We are pin prick precise. It has been surgical. Is it Perfect. Absolutely not.
- [05:38]
Jessica Charloff
And it's not surgical.
- [05:40]
Jesse Waters
Absolutely not. Okay. Obama's drone campaign annihilated countless innocent civilians. Jessica. And then he hid it from the American public. Don't talk to me about that. Since this war started, there has been less civilian casualties in Iran. The death toll in Iran has gone down since Trump launched this war because they were slaughtering people in the streets. Think about that for a second. We have to do this properly, because there are three outstanding issues. One, this junior ayatollah, he's probably going to have to go pretty soon. Next. Whatever remains of the nuclear program is going to have to get figured out. And the strait. And it looks like after they attacked a few tankers, we've just warned every civilian that works in an Iranian port to skedaddle because we're going to light them up tonight.
- [06:27]
Emily Compagno
Do you want to respond? I feel like, sure, I'll go.
- [06:34]
Jessica Charloff
I look forward to the lighting them up tonight. But it's definitely not going to plan. If. Iran is now exporting more oil than they were before the war, after sending it over to China, which was supposed to be one of our targets here, that we would actually hurt the Chinese, they end up to be doing just fine from this. The way that the war is being discussed, I'm glad that you actually use that term, but listening to Trump say it's a little excursion, actually, it's a war, and this turned out to be easier than we thought. Feels very akin to that Mission Accomplished banner, which what you're saying, Jesse, is basically battling, backing it up. There are massive military accomplishments, especially when it comes to downing the big Iranian vessels. In particular, some of those smaller boats are still giving us trouble, cutting down on the number of missiles that they're firing, also incredibly important. But we haven't been able to stop their production, and we haven't been able to stop the drones. So the Ukrainians are helping us do that, even though they came to us in August of last year, they had a PowerPoint presentation saying, We've got the right tech to sell you that will actually help you if you get into a conflict like this. And we decided, no, moving on, we're not going to do anything with that. And now we need them, especially because the Russians are helping the Iranians, even though Donald Trump and Steve Witkoff, you know, gave Putin a call and said, you know, stop doing that. The goalposts have shifted further than a football field like Rubio started out. We're talking about ending nuclear programs. We don't talk about that anymore. Talking about regime change. You call him Ayatollah Junior. That's fine. His legs. It sounds like it's bad. But he's also more of a hardline than his father. His dad has been killed, his wife has been killed, his son has been killed, and his mother has been killed. He's mad. He's solidifying power. And if he does come out of there, then they're going to put someone else in. The Israelis are even saying we won't be able to go for regime change anymore. So now we're just talking about destroying the ability to launch the missiles. We have to destroy the missile factories. We haven't been able to do that. And destroy the Navy. That one looks like it's good. To the point about it's surgical, but Never mind the 180 that died in the Iranian state school, over 100 schoolchildren. And by the way, the preliminary inquiry report is out and it does look like it was our missile and that we were going on bad intel. So they need to figure out how that happened. CBS is reporting that that drone attack that killed six American soldiers in Kuwait, actually far more serious. There are 30 people right now in hospitals. They have brain trauma, burns, shrapnel in them. And we'll see again about the lighting it up tonight. But the cast of characters, when you listen to Steve Witkoff saying I trust the Russians, he gave an interview yesterday on cnbc and reporting around, was going on in these actual nuclear negotiations, where it indicates that Steve Witkoff didn't actually even know the terms well enough to understand what the Iranians were offering does not give me a tremendous amount of confidence.
- [09:23]
Emily Compagno
Dana. Success does not mean, however, immediate obliteration.
- [09:27]
Dana Perino
I mean, really, obviously it's not perfect, but my gosh, Jessica, I won't go through all of it because we don't have enough time. I would recommend. I haven't done this in a long time. Recommended reading. Noah Rothman at National Review has a piece called what's Gone Right in the Iran War. Highly recommended it to everybody because that could be the counter to what you just heard. I was also wrote down here that the Ayatollah Jr. We need to have proof of life, because is he really the person that we're supposed to be believing that is in charge of the country? And how are they communicating even internally to the people there? There was a Democrat earlier today who said, why aren't the people out taking over? They have this opportunity. President Trump has this opportunity. Why aren't they leaving their houses and taking over? Because well, one, the regime is still entrenched in charge and says that they'll kill them if. And President Trump has said, stay inside. It's not safe for you yet. It will be hopefully in the future. On the surf and turf thing, what I think is so interesting is that the Democrats complain about that, and not one of them complained about Governor Tim Walz and Minnesota fraud and Somali fraud. Record recruitment at the Pentagon right now. Record morale at the Pentagon right now. And you just think about there's what they spent on surf and turf is $7 million less than a doctor charged in a year to treat fake autism patients. And that was in the Wall Street Journal today. Last thing I would say is I did not know what WYA meant, but now I do. And I appreciate that, Emily. And I feel much more. You know, I'll just take a point of personal privilege for one second as well, because the Mission Accomplished banner, just so everybody knows, like, that it drives me crazy that people don't seem to know this. So there's millions of people watching. Here you go. President George W. Bush was not declaring Mission Accomplished. What happened was that that particular ship had been on the longest mission that it had ever been on. And the guys on the admiral said, is it okay if we put like, Mission Accomplished for this particular ship? It was a mistake. It never should have happened. There was a wrong banner, but it was not a declaration that the war was over.
- [11:34]
Emily Compagno
Greg, a lot that we have just covered. What do you want to talk about?
- [11:38]
Greg Gutfeld
Well, you know, I. What has gone on in the last seven or eight days is pretty majestic. And I think Jesse lays it out pretty clear. And then what Jessica does was list these details that she's amassed together downloaded into one thing. Like, look at all of these little problems once again. It's like the process is more important than the outcome. And it reminds me of the deportations. Seems like a millennia ago when that was the worst thing ever. You remember, these were the people who didn't care who got in. Now arguing how we're getting them out and saying, but you said it was the worst first. Of course, they didn't check to see who the worst was when they let them in. So the point being is you need to figure out your own mess before you criticize ours. Keep your side of the street clean, and we'll keep our side of the street clean. And that's kind of the funny thing about Republicans is that, you know, you lost your seat at the table because Republicans do serious things. The border crime, foreign policy. The last 10 years. Your party, Jessica, preoccupied yourself with identity politics, pronouns, trans body positivity. That's not our fault. So when we're doing adult stuff, you go to the kiddie table. The Democrats are like a brat that just completed a semester at Yale lecturing gramps on white privilege. You don't need to hear it, everyone.
- [13:07]
Emily Compagno
It's. You know.
- [13:08]
Greg Gutfeld
And by the way, I hate this practice where they all try to spend money at the very end of the year. But we didn't invent that. You can guess who invented that. You know, and I'm not taking any guff from people who had taxpayers, you know, paying for Drag Queen story hour in Cambodia. At least the surf and turf went to our troops. And at least. I mean, again, you have no credibility on any of these things because you were never at the adult table. Instead, you chase these things that were nothing but virtue signaling that weren't even for the American people, you know, Sesame street for Iraqis. Like, that wasn't for us. That's where you spent the money. So all I'm saying is we're good at the big picture until you guys can prove to us that you are, too. You're gonna sit at the little table and you're gonna sit there and you go, but this happened. Oh, but this happened. Remember this? Oh, this is bad. It's like that. You guys do that. We're good.
- [14:03]
Jesse Waters
Should we get a little table for Jessica?
- [14:05]
Greg Gutfeld
I'm gonna put you on a little table.
- [14:06]
Jessica Charloff
I don't wanna sit at a. Realize how large I actually am.
- [14:12]
Emily Compagno
All right, guys. Up next, the Democrats exposed as hypocrites over high gas prices as Trump's midterms affordability swing continues.
- [14:21]
Greg Gutfeld
Yeah. Hey, Sal.
- [14:33]
Jesse Waters
Hank.
- [14:33]
Greg Gutfeld
What's going on?
- [14:34]
Jesse Waters
We have worked a case in years.
- [14:36]
Greg Gutfeld
I just bought my car at Carvana and it was so easy.
- [14:39]
Jesse Waters
Too easy.
- [14:40]
Greg Gutfeld
Think something's up?
- [14:41]
Jesse Waters
You tell me.
- [14:42]
Greg Gutfeld
They got thousands of options, found a great car at a great price, and it got delivered the next day.
- [14:48]
Jesse Waters
It sounds like Carvana just makes it easy to buy your car, Hank.
- [14:52]
Greg Gutfeld
Yeah, you're right. Case closed.
- [14:55]
Dana Perino
Buy your car today on Carvana.
- [14:59]
Emily Compagno
Delivery fees may apply.
- [15:09]
Greg Gutfeld
Trump's Midterm swing continues today. 47, hitting up a plant in Ohio, then to Northern Kentucky for a speech on the economy after getting a decent inflation report with February numbers remaining unchanged from January. Here's the prez now.
- [15:26]
Jesse Waters
Again, the midterms are coming. They want to raise your taxes higher than you've ever had before. We have to win. The midterms are going to be Very, very important to keep it going.
- [15:38]
Greg Gutfeld
And remember the Putin price hike crap the Dems tried pushing under Sleepy Joe. Now those same geniuses think they got credibility to complain about high gas prices. A barrel of Brent crude shot over $100 a barrel yesterday. The average price of one gallon in the United States is $3.54. That's a 17% increase since the start of the war.
- [16:00]
Dana Perino
Gas prices are going through the roof. Tariffs still here. More problems are going to happen because of all of this. Prices are going to continue to go up.
- [16:09]
Greg Gutfeld
I love when politicians say to people, don't worry about that. Inflation, it's gone. American people are smart.
- [16:16]
Jesse Waters
Costs are going up for many reasons, but including because of this war of choice that the President has decided on his own to wage.
- [16:23]
Greg Gutfeld
Interesting. Dana, what a surprise. They seem to be all playing to the same script. It's like they can't think for themselves.
- [16:30]
Dana Perino
The bat signal. Yeah, and the bat signal said, let's talk about high prices. So hearing Chuck Schumer talk about it, though, you have to remember, he says it's the highest gas prices in years. And he emphasizes that. But the years was 2022. And that was when the Democrats worked together with Biden to drive up the prices because they wanted everybody to pay high gas prices so that they would switch to electric vehicles. How did that turn out? Right, but he's now abandoning their electric vehicle plans because people don't want them. Technology isn't quite there yet. Also, he's calling for Trump to release a strategic petroleum reserve. But let's go back when, during Biden's term, When oil was $25 a barrel, the Republicans said we should refill it now. This would make sense. And they said no. And now they want him to release it when it's at this. At this price. That makes sense.
- [17:16]
Greg Gutfeld
It doesn't make sense. Emily, what are your thoughts on this?
- [17:21]
Emily Compagno
I wanted to talk a little bit about the pharma stuff and the affordability tour that he's doing because. Oh, I'm sorry, Jesse. Is it over your head?
- [17:30]
Jessica Charloff
It is.
- [17:31]
Emily Compagno
Should I talk about the Hotsitazi Club? Hotsy Totsi, Tatsi Tatsi. That's like the strip joint and where I come from. Okay. Anyway. What?
- [17:38]
Jesse Waters
So talk about that.
- [17:41]
Emily Compagno
I know that's what I said.
- [17:43]
Dana Perino
What does the Hotsi Tatsi Club have to do with pharma?
- [17:45]
Emily Compagno
Well, and that's why Jesse prefers to talk about that. So just to say that, I think, you know what we have seen from this commander in chief is obviously sort of a cataclysmic presentation of being able to do a ridiculous amount of things at one time. And his cabinet has been hyper efficient and hyper accomplished. And what we're seeing here with this affordability tour, however, is that he's listening to the American public where they're saying, well, number one on our list is affordability. We are grateful and satisfied that you are ensuring peace and stability in the Middle east and ensuring that oil prices are in the long term driven down, that the streets are safe and more. But the reality is that what you feel on a daily basis with your family and with your kids and is how your wallet works and where your paycheck goes and whether you get a tax return. So I think this is an important strategic decision that they're making. And the other thing is that it flies in the face of what Democrats have been hollering this whole time, which is, well, none of that matters except for this. Well, right now Trump is saying, yeah, you're right, here we go. And here's the answer to that. So I think it's gonna be successful. Okay. Was that exciting enough for you?
- [18:50]
Greg Gutfeld
That was pretty good.
- [18:51]
Jessica Charloff
It was hotsy totsy to me.
- [18:53]
Greg Gutfeld
Where was that, in Seattle?
- [18:54]
Emily Compagno
No, it's an El Cerrito. El Cerrito, California, nine, four, five, three.
- [18:58]
Greg Gutfeld
Oh, wow. Man, I used to drive down El Camino in El Cerrito.
- [19:03]
Jesse Waters
Yeah.
- [19:03]
Greg Gutfeld
In an El Camino. You know, Jessica, inflation under Trump is flatter than Biden's ekg. So to drive you crazy, right?
- [19:11]
Jessica Charloff
No, I'm always rooting for America. I'm still bristling a little bit from the kiddie table comment in the A block. And I would like to defend my real human sized honor when you say, oh, Democrats don't take any of the grown up issues. We take on the biggest grown up issue of all, which is the economy, and then trash it.
- [19:33]
Greg Gutfeld
No, you're terrible for the economy.
- [19:37]
Jessica Charloff
Jobs numbers. There were more Americans that were insured.
- [19:40]
Jesse Waters
Why'd you lose? Look at the economy was so great. Why'd you lose? I didn't say they hated the Biden nomics.
- [19:47]
Jessica Charloff
Look at President Trump's numbers on the economy. It's minus 23 in the new NPR.
- [19:53]
Jesse Waters
Jessica.
- [19:54]
Jessica Charloff
Yeah, that's a reflection of human beings.
- [19:55]
Jesse Waters
I know you don't like the number. That is a number of up inflation to 9%.
- [20:01]
Jessica Charloff
We did not.
- [20:02]
Jesse Waters
Oil, gas prices, $5.
- [20:05]
Jessica Charloff
Jessica, are you kidding? Here?
- [20:07]
Jesse Waters
$5 a gallon.
- [20:08]
Jessica Charloff
Here's real numbers for you, Jesse. As President Trump stands in front of A banner that says lower prices. And gas In Kentucky is $3.16 a gallon. And it was 255 before this Iran war or little.
- [20:23]
Greg Gutfeld
What was it under Biden?
- [20:24]
Jesse Waters
Under Trump, it was 255.
- [20:26]
Jessica Charloff
That's the spike in it for something that he caused. The average family in Kentucky is paying over. That actually brings me to my point of the inflation. Is it about the hotsy Tati Club?
- [20:36]
Jesse Waters
I wish it was. I wish it was. So Donald Trump could have let this go to another president. He went in knowing it would drive up the price of oil.
- [20:46]
Jessica Charloff
He said it won't affect it, and he still says it's just.
- [20:48]
Jesse Waters
He went in knowing this was going to cause an issue, but he did it to make sure future generations could live safely and prosperously.
- [20:57]
Greg Gutfeld
It's a good point.
- [20:58]
Jesse Waters
He could have let this guy arm up, nuke up, and so the next Democrat president would have had to confront a more muscular Iran. You have to respect that, Jessica.
- [21:10]
Jessica Charloff
You have to respect that.
- [21:10]
Jesse Waters
And you should say thank you when the oil prices go down.
- [21:14]
Greg Gutfeld
Ironic that in this week of International Women's Day, Trump is freeing the Iranian women from a misogynistic regime, and yet our feminists in America are saying gas is so expensive because Trump is freeing these women.
- [21:28]
Jessica Charloff
International Women's day was only 23 hours.
- [21:30]
Greg Gutfeld
Well, I know. Because you know why?
- [21:35]
Dana Perino
Points deducted.
- [21:36]
Greg Gutfeld
Yes, points deducted for nagging. All right, coming up, Tampon Tim's fraud scandal spreads to Greasy's backyard.
- [21:54]
JPMorgan Chase Announcer
How can we help make stronger communities happen? Well, at JPMorgan Chase, we invest in what's working. Because when businesses can grow, that growth means more jobs for more people and more goods that can go to more restaurants and main streets and schools in the communities we love.
- [22:10]
Emily Compagno
Make the green grass grow.
- [22:11]
Dana Perino
All around. All around. Make the green grass grow.

- [22:26]
Dana Perino
All right, blue states seem to be getting slammed by a surge of scams. Minnesota Governor Tim Wallace, who oversaw a 9 billion Medicaid fraud scandal, he's now bragging that he was the guy locking people up.
- [22:38]
Greg Gutfeld
I think Minnesotans have to recognize is you're hearing about fraud in Minnesota because we are prosecuting people. You're going to hear about it in other states. You're going to continue to see it. But the fix is you don't want to hear about fraud, not because somebody's not prosecuting somebody. You don't want to hear about fraud because, you know, the safeguards and the
- [22:55]
Dana Perino
systems are in place and over in Gavin Newsom's backyard. The mainstream media is catching up to Fox reporting on alleged billions in rampant hospice fraud in California. A CBS report claiming over 700 of the roughly 1800 hospices in LA county trigger multiple red flags for fraud as defined by the state. And Governor Newsom's office, telling CBS that he has it all under control. Saying in a statement, under Governor Newsom's administration, California has cracked down on hospice fraud, launched partnerships across state agencies, and the California Department of Justice has arrested criminals to hold them accountable. Let's talk about your favorite politician, Jesse. Tim Walls. He's got to be one of the luckiest guys alive. All of the news of the recent weeks has taken the spotlight off of him. However, he did withdraw from running for reelection because of the fraud in his state.
- [23:45]
Jesse Waters
Well, he said the safeguards are in place in the system. What is he talking about? This fraud was happening for like 10 years and people were blowing the whistle. Hey, Walls, they're stealing the cash. Look at them. The Somalis are shipping it out of the airport in suitcases. And he did nothing about it until the prosecutors came in and did something about it. Guy is a joke. Now, Newsom, they have been ripping off LA county with hospice fraud even before he was governor. Kamala was AG in California. She didn't even prosecute it. They fleeced this county for hundreds of millions of dollars. Finally someone catches up to it and Gavin's like, yeah, we're all over it. And blames Trump. That's not gonna fly. That is not gonna fly. If you're the governor of a state and you find that much fraud, you can't say I'm on it when you're not.
- [24:41]
Dana Perino
It seems to be everywhere. Greg, here's more reporting. Wall Street Journal said that there's an Indiana doctor, he charged $29 million to treat 84 kids for autism. It was like this boom in. Autism is Medicaid's fastest growing jackpot. I did a little Math. Yeah, it's $345,000 per kid.
- [25:00]
Greg Gutfeld
Wow. In your face, Mara.
- [25:02]
JPMorgan Chase Announcer
Gay.
- [25:04]
Dana Perino
Hope I got the number right.
- [25:05]
Greg Gutfeld
Yes. Yeah. You know, I gotta talk about Waltz first, cuz he said we're only hearing about it because of the prosecution. No, you tried to silence the whistleblowers. You smeared people who want to investigate. Because you call any look into the Somali fraud, you were considered racist. There are two reasons why we're hearing about this. Because Kamala picked him as VP because she felt he was less gay than Mayor Pete, when in fact he makes Mayor Pete look like Chuck Norris. And also, we know, we really know about this stuff because some 23 year old Mormon named Nick decided to do what journalists used to do and hit the pavement. He actually went to the story, which myself included, nobody does. You know, it's like, it's like we sit, we surf, find out. Oh, now Nick Shirley's doing the work for me. Hey, hey, hey. Click, click, click. And he did the work. He did the work for everybody. I mean, and I think that's why you're hearing about the hospice stories in California. It's a fitting story for California because California is in hospice. Just make the state comfortable. Give it some, Give him some, like chopped ice. All right, again, I want to go back to the border on this. Okay, how did we find out about the border? We didn't find out from Biden or Mayorkas, did we? They covered it up. They said we were racist for bringing it up. They went after our border patrol. There was only one reason we found out about it. It was Bill Malugian. One guy showing us, going there like a reporter showing with drones photos and pictures the story that CNN and msnbc, the Washington Post, the New York Times had mocked, had scoffed until now. They're going like, ho, ho, ho, you guys, we. The border's terrible, but the way you're handling it is awful. Do you see my point here? It's all the same cycle. You're welcome.
- [26:53]
Dana Perino
It just keeps happening. And there's just, you know, Doge tried to do some of it wasn't perfect and, but you know, Congress keeps filling back up the coffers and unless they have more fraud alerts, because it's going to keep happening.
- [27:10]
Emily Compagno
Yeah, Doge, where you at? Look to your point, Greg. Nick Shirley freely says that the reason that he learned about it is because there was a dedicated Minnesotan, as Walsh says, who relentlessly and tirelessly reached out to Nick and said, look, help me. I have been committed to cleaning up my state. It's people who care. And I don't think there's a rhyme or reason why it somehow goes viral, but thank God when it does. It's unfortunately that the more sexier stories eclipse the stories that are draining or reveal that we are being drained by the millions and billions. It's sort of like, remember when Jewel got big and everyone was like, oh, my gosh, overnight sensation Jewel? And it's like, no, she was sleeping in her car for four years. It didn't happen overnight. The point is she.

Jessica Charloff
What?
- [27:56]
Emily Compagno
You know what I'm talking about.
- [27:57]
Greg Gutfeld
The Vape. Oh, no, you're talking about jewels.
- [28:02]
Emily Compagno
The 90s. The 90s, where I reside.
- [28:05]
Greg Gutfeld
Yes, okay.
- [28:05]
Emily Compagno
The 90s where I reside. I also want to point out the fact that Tim Walls and his entire presentation reminds me of sort of opening arguments before you get to trial where he can stand out there and the jury's like, okay, all right, this is maybe going to happen. And then you realize that the entire case has fallen flat because there's absolutely no evidence to back him up. He right now is on a speaking circuit and enjoys that reporters do not press back. But what will happen is that the evidence will be revealed that, yes, he actively punished the whistleblowers. And by the way, with his fiduciary duty and his duty to constituents, he knew or should have known is the same standard. And he will be on the hook, in my opinion, criminally liable for that rampant fraud. Because you know, where else that money went, it didn't just go to line the pillows of couches of Somalians in their home. It went to Somaliland. It went also to a bunch of terrorist cells. So the bad people that our brave men and women in uniform are fighting right now and dying for right now were funded by those taxpayers in Minnesota that Tim Walls thinks is occurring everywhere. It's not. It's under his watch. And Gavin Newsom is a whole different story. He is an absolute joke in anything criminal justice. He is impotent, just like the Ayatollah sun does.

Dana Perino
Jessica, will Democrats take all of the fraud issues into consideration when they look to 2028 nominee?
- [29:24]
Jessica Charloff
I think it'll come up. I mean, it's gonna be a huge debate stage. Right. It'll be reminiscent of 2020.
- [29:30]
Dana Perino
Those debates don't work anymore anyway. That's a subject for another time.
- [29:34]
Jessica Charloff
Oh, yeah, I don't know. I mean, you do see certainly the ones who should be on the kiddie stage still mad about the. Remember in 2016 when they had like the low rated debate and then the. And the big one. The piece that you cited, though, is really good. Everyone should look at it. The Wall Street Journal piece on the fraud and they used actually some Doge data to look at it. So that was a good thing that came out of the Doge situation. As far as fraud, and I've said this since the beginning, it should be taken seriously. No matter your politics, you should be held to a high standard. There. There are. There is going to be some level of fraud that happens in any huge bureaucracy. And obviously 19 billion or potentially 19 billion is massive, but also should hold people accountable, like a Donald Trump, for instance, giving pardons and commutations to huge health care fraudsters, people who took billions of dollars from Americans through the Medicare and Medicaid fraud system.

Dana Perino
So it also happens when you shut down.

Whistleblowers don't do that either.

All right, coming up, a Democrat makes bizarre comments about the benefits of shoplifting.

JPMorgan Chase Announcer
How can we help make stronger commitments? Communities happen. Well, at JPMorgan Chase, we invest in what's working in businesses that create more jobs in hospitals delivering care where it's needed the most, in workers building new buildings, bridges and roads, connecting what we need to where we live.

Jesse Waters
A liberal nitwit not helping his party's brand of being soft on crime. A liberal nitwit, a Minnesota state Democrat going viral after suggesting studying the benefits of shoplifting during a hearing in the state legislature. Watch.
- [31:40]
Greg Gutfeld
It actually had not occurred to me to ask. It probably would have been good to make sure that they would study sort of the benefit of shoplifting and of retail theft because perhaps people are relying on that and sort of using that. Maybe it's, you know, assisting them in some ways.
- [31:55]
Jesse Waters
Of course, the lawmaker now claims he was just being sarcastic. And speaking of the liberals love for shoplifting, New York magazine running a puff piece on Whole Foods Jail, which is a small, windowless office near the baked goods section that liberal women who casually steal from the grocery store get sent to. Have you ever been sent to Whole Foods Jail, Emily?
- [32:16]
Greg Gutfeld
No.
- [32:16]
Emily Compagno
You know what I hate about that is the how journalists have the ability to shape whether something is okay or not. Like recreational probiotic thieving, because the chick spending $300 on turkey and whatever is like the Dr. Hauschka, I don't want to spend another $30 on eye cream. So I'll take it like that is what excuses the entire rampant epidemic of shoplifting that actually results in security guards getting stabbed and all those other things.
- [32:44]
Greg Gutfeld
How they describe the the bombers, two teams from Pennsylvania. They try to shape your emotion before they tell the story.
- [32:52]
Emily Compagno
Totally. And I loved that actually, that particular example, she did go to jail. I'm not trying to, you know, scream from the wings like everyone should go to jail for this, but don't make it seem okay because the whole point is it's not. And if it's Whole Foods on that day, then what mom and pop store is it going to be the next day. And also, do you guys remember that one softball coach, poor thing who I can't actually ironically remember whether she did it on purpose or was an accident, but she was doing the self scared one of the skinny. And then remember she got completely, like, fired everything. Jessica knows what I'm talking about.
- [33:22]
Greg Gutfeld
So while we have 4 million viewers. You don't.
- [33:25]
Emily Compagno
Everyone knows what I'm talking about. The whole point is, is that it's a hypocrisy. This one's okay. This one's not.
- [33:31]
Greg Gutfeld
All right, now let's talk about the softball coach.
- [33:33]
Emily Compagno
Jessica knows what I'm talking about.
- [33:34]
Jesse Waters
Jessica, tell us about the softball coach.
- [33:38]
Emily Compagno
Translate.
- [33:39]
Jessica Charloff
There is a lot of accidental shoplifting that happens with the self scanner. Especially when you're like. And this happens a lot when you have strollers and big. You know how people bring their own bags now in their little car.
- [33:51]
Greg Gutfeld
You're such a liberal.
- [33:52]
Dana Perino
Well, we have.
- [33:54]
Greg Gutfeld
I will exploit that. It's like, oh, it's like, you know, these. You know, it's like, you know, we should allow trans women into women's bathroom. Of course, men won't game that system. Now you tell me about putting food in a.
- [34:06]
Jesse Waters
It's like, oh, I thought I scanned the caviar. Wait, I thought I scanned it.
- [34:09]
Jessica Charloff
No, it's like random. Like Vita Cocoa. It's not like Vita Cocoa, but like

Greg Gutfeld
with a baby carriage. There's that under thing.
- [34:16]
Jesse Waters
Yeah, I forgot the case of water under there. I do that all the time. Greg, you seem to be very excited about this segment.
- [34:25]
Greg Gutfeld
I love how entitled these women are. And by the way, what your point is, is how they describe their occupations as their shoplift. Like, one is an artist and another one was on her way to a concert, like a really hip show. To tell you that these people aren't like those other people, minorities. They're not poor minorities. They're like white educated women.
- [34:46]
Jessica Charloff
But that's the legislator's point, because I think he was being said. It's worse, obviously, when people who don't need to steal do.
- [34:52]
Greg Gutfeld
But stealing is bad no matter what. And if you'd read the Bible, you'd
- [34:56]
Jessica Charloff
know that Harold texts you every morning when you've read the Bible.
- [35:02]
Greg Gutfeld
A generation of people who are shocked all day, he goes, we have a generation of people who are shocked by how the world works, that somehow they are entitled or immune to the certain things that we've grown up with. You know, you see a protester spit in a cop's face and then scream when they get Pepper sprayed, like, how can you do this to me? It's the same mentality. They should all be killed with kindness.
- [35:24]
Jesse Waters
Kill them with kindness, right, Dana?
- [35:26]
Dana Perino
Yeah, I guess so. That's what I thought. That the guy from Minnesota who. I don't think he's being sarcastic. He was being empathetic. Oh, and sarcasm is the Republican's job. And then. So he's trying to play that card. I'm like, no, he's trying to be empathetic. He was like, you know, Jean Valjean needed a loaf of bread and everybody, you know, he came back and figured out a way to make his life better. That's kind of what he was saying. But if I was a Democrat from Minnesota, I would not be making jokes at all about stealing people's money.
- [35:54]
Greg Gutfeld
Looting.

Jesse Waters
That's not a good look. Especially after the Somalis did what they did. Right, Jessica, tell them what they did. Oh, my gosh.

All the Somalis did not do anything. There was some Somali fraud. But the head of. What is it?

And it sounds just like a song.

Jessica Charloff
Does MAGA have a dress code? According to the Wall Street Journal, President Trump is obsessed with gifting his staff these $145 Florsheim Leather Oxford shoes. And quote, all the boys have them, said a female White House official. Another joked, it's hysterical because everybody's afraid not to wear them. Jesse, the best part is that they wear them even when they don't fit. Like, Marco Rubio has, like, a 4 inch gap in his shoes.
- [37:28]
Jesse Waters
I can't comment on the size of Marco's feet. It wouldn't be right. But this is what the President does. I used to wear these really English spread collars on the air, and it used to really piss off the President. And he'd see me go, jesse, your collar is so spread, it looks like it's going backwards behind your head. So he bought me a bunch of shirts with a normal collar.
- [37:46]
Jessica Charloff
Wait, what?
- [37:48]
Jesse Waters
Just like one shirt. And then so I felt, like, pressure to wear it, but it was too Big. But now I wear normal collars. But he was right. My English collar was really messed up.
- [37:59]
Jessica Charloff
Dana.
- [38:00]
Dana Perino
Well, apparently he buys his shoes for everyone. But this week has been one of those weeks where you think that some opposition research is going to drop on Marco Rubio because he was getting a little ahead. It might have been the vice president's office put it out there.
- [38:12]
Jessica Charloff
Oh, I like it. Palace intrigue. Greg, I keep joking.
- [38:16]
Greg Gutfeld
It's kind of fun to see what you could get your staff to wear. You know what I mean? Like, I. I actually have my. I bind their feet.
- [38:24]
Dana Perino
No, you made. You made Cat wear that sweatshirt, right? The misfits one?
- [38:28]
Greg Gutfeld
No, that's. Misfits sends us boxes.
- [38:32]
Dana Perino
Oh, I remember. This is years ago, though.

Greg Gutfeld
Anyway, it's usually people get a deal in something in bulk, and then they just keep giving it out, like spaghetti sauce or hats or bottles of wine with dogs on it.

sweet and kind because to that, like, I love when someone loves something so much that they want everyone to have it. For me, I feel like it's a weird chlamydia. For me, it's like lip gloss, whatever. But also, you know what I was picturing is, remember in Voyage of the Dawn Treader, or what are the ones that monopeds with the mono?

I was the mystery reader at Cleo's pre K class. It was so fun. The kids have to guess based on clues what parent is coming so you could hear their little voices. They're like, she has glasses and like four Kids were like, it's mine, it's mine. And then they were like, she's really tall. And my daughter was like, it's mine. It's definitely my mom and I went to a fun restaurant, went out to Brooklyn on an adventure.

A lot of tigers are female. And it's at the John Ball Zoo in Grand Rapids, Michigan. She's an amateur tiger formerly known as the Siberian tiger, named after tigers that were in Russia, which was formerly the ussr. Amber tigers are the largest cats in the world. The males can weigh up to £450. That's 1/4 of a ton, or just £450. They are endangered. Guys, come on. Stop killing the tigers. They're so beautiful. Oh, my God. Look at that. When. OMG. Only 500 remain. And they're wild around the world in the Russian Far East. Isn't that great?
