Dana Perino
Hello everyone. I'm Dana Perino along with Kennedy, Jessica Tarlov, Jesse Waters and Greg Gutfeld. It's five o' clock in New York City and this is the five. President Trump holding his 10th cabinet meeting, officially surpassing his predecessor Joe Biden's total of nine cabinet meetings. And that was during his four years in office. The commander in chief touting his great numbers at the border in one of his shorter than usual meetings.
- [01:19]
Greg Gutfeld
Here's why we are going to ask a couple of people to say a few words and we're not going to go through the whole table because the last time we had a press conference it lasted for three hours and some people said he closed his eyes. Look, it got pretty boring. I didn't sleep. I just closed him because I wanted to get the hell out of here. Our border is very secure, record setting secure. We had zero illegal aliens being admitted into our country for the last eight months. That's hard. That's hard for even me to believe.
- [01:55]
Dana Perino
And while the President did not address the events in Minneapolis at that meeting, his border czar is on the ground there. He's taking charge. Tom Homan holding a very early morning press conference saying he's made a lot of progress in talking with officials.
- [02:08]
Greg Gutfeld
The people out there don't like what I should do and take it up with Congress. The hostile rhetoric and dangerous threats and hate must stop looking for solutions. I do not want to hear that. Everything that's been done here has been perfect. Nothing's ever perfect. Anything to be improved on. And what we've been working on is making this operation safer, more efficient.
- [02:32]
Jesse Waters
By the book.
- [02:32]
Greg Gutfeld
We gotta all remember the questions we've seen and why we here. What started this Four years of an open border where millions of people are letting this country. We are not surrendering our mission at all. We're just doing smarter. Got here Monday evening and I'm staying. So the problem's gone.
- [02:57]
Dana Perino
And brand new video shows Alex Preddy confronting ICE agents 11 days before his death. He can be seen spitting at them, kicking out the taillight of a government SUV during a protest. He was tackled by agents after that. And the Preddy family released in a statement saying this. A week before Alex was gunned down in the street. Despite posing no threat to anyone, he was violently assaulted by a group of ICE agents. Nothing that happened a full week before could possibly have justified Alex's killing at the hands of ice on January 24th. All right, Kennedy, let's start with you. Great to see you. We started off the morning early today. Tom Holman said all the reporters get.
- [03:34]
Megan Alexander
In there 7am it's a very different tone that he's setting. And obviously he's talking about working with officials in Minneapolis and Minnesota, which is what they should have been doing this entire time. And it just makes you wonder if some of these governors had been working with the federal government, you know, not to get everybody out, but to get out the very worst, most violent criminals who are deportable, who have deportation orders from the federal government. If they could been just working on, then so much of this could have been avoided. And, you know, he has shown up. He has actually gotten support from moderates and some Democrats for his tone and his more focused approach, which has been widely reported. And it was very interesting because the president was complimentary of him during the truncated Cabinet meeting. And a lot of people noted that there were some omissions during the meeting. And if he had 100% faith and confidence in DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, maybe he would have called on her during the cabinet meeting and allowed her to reassert herself in the administration. That did not happen.
- [04:40]
Dana Perino
Although I would say from a comm standpoint, if they want Homan to be the one in the lead, that would be a way to do that, which is to keep it tight, as they did today. Jesse, what do you think about the change in tone, the press conference, the Cabinet meeting showing a pivot away?
- [04:57]
Greg Gutfeld
I like Homan. He's smooth. He's been doing this since Reagan, and so he knows how to play the game. He said this is the most important thing. When you go out in a sanctuary city, you need to bring 16 ICE agents to get one bad guy. So you need two guys to do the arrest. More guys to look at the exit and the entrance. Another guy in the truck, and then more guys for crown control. When you pick someone up at the jail, one guy. So that's the deal they cut. And Keith Ellison even said, yes, we will start handing bad hombres over from the jails. That will lower the footprint in Minneapolis and that's safer for everybody. Then you don't have violence in the streets. But Homan did say he's still on a mission and they're not leaving Minneapolis until the mission's over. And it's not just bad hombres. Anybody who's here illegally is deportable. This new Freddie video is interesting, isn't it? You know, this is not the kind of guy they told you was out there. This wasn't the kind of innocent nurse, just wrong place, wrong time, delivering aid to a needy protester. This was a hostile, aggressive, extremely angry and violent man who was armed. In another armed confrontation with law enforcement, he was given the double birds. He was spitting at the truck. And then he violently resisted arrest. Apparently he had a cracked rib. CNN reports from this. Imagine cracking your rib and then going back out with a gun again and confronting violently ICE agents while they're doing these dangerous raids. That doesn't justify what happened to him. We're still going to wait for the results of the investigation. But why is it that every time these martyrs pop up, we have to look into it? And then when you report the truth about these people. Renee Good, not necessarily someone stuck in traffic. She was a well trained anti ice warrior who is hell bent on her tds. And then you have someone like Floyd. Remember, Floyd was this gentle giant. Turns out he was like in some sort of like armed robbery in Houston, Texas. He was in porn, he was strung out on drugs. They had to change the coroner report. Why can't the Democrats and the media be honest about their martyrs? Why can't they accept any responsibility? It's so childish. It's so dishonest. And then when we say, oh, well, you know this person, really, they're like, you're attacking this person. We're grown ups. We can handle the truth.
- [07:32]
Dana Perino
At the same time, Jessica, the government could shut down. Democrats are saying, well, they want changes in ice. But it feels like one of the dumbest shutdowns. And I hate all shutdowns. I think they're dumb. But this one would defund ice, but actually not particularly that it would take away money from FEMA and not really touch ICE at all because that's funded through 2029.
- [07:53]
Jessica Tarlov
Yeah, we're talking about $10 billion of ICE funding when they already got 75, 80 billion in the reconciliation bill. But it does look like there are a number of Republican senators that are interested in having a conversation about bifurcating out the dhs, making sure the other five bills pass. And Senator Thune seems to be open to that conversation. So it does feel like this is a day of people speaking, at least vaguely, the same language, which I think is really healthy. I'm watching Tom Holman this morning and seeing some of the reaction. Kennedy's right. From moderates and some Democrats. Very positive. I did see, you know, Tom Holman is just like gripe of, you know, absolutely not. This is a. An acknowledgement that what Kristi Noem and Greg Bevino were doing was not acceptable to the Trump administration even. And whether that's just because it boiled over because of the public reaction or how they genuinely felt, I don't know. But this is markedly different. And a few things that I jotted down that I think are really positive steps in the right direction. Tom Holman made sure that he acknowledged the fact that mistakes had been made. And he said, I would not be here if everything had been done perfectly. He said, I'm not here for photo ops. So taking his swing at Kristi Noem and Greg Bevino, but to seek solutions, which I think is borne out in the conversations that even Keith Ellison, Mayor Fry, and Tim Walls have mentioned. He says the mission will shift focus to criminals and people with charges. And Reuters is reporting that CPB officers have gotten the memo that they are no longer allowed to engage with agitators. So that means that you won't have an Alex Pareti situation again, hopefully. And he also said that no matter what's going on with the protests, that ICE and CPP must act professionally or they be dealt with. And that flies right in the face of what J.D. vance said about these guys having immunity for whatever their actions are. And I know he's tried to walk that back, but everyone remembers that that was said originally. So call me a Pollyanna if you want. I think that everyone should be hopeful about where this can go and that maybe those bad hombres can be the ones that are out and we can not see this level of a surge to one of these cities again. And that's where I am today.
- [10:01]
Dana Perino
One of your early morning posts this morning was basically suggesting that if the local police had been able to be there to do their job, and Freddie would have likely have been Arrested.
- [10:11]
Jesse Waters
And then, yeah, that's why again, you know, I'm not going to be suckered in by this stupid take where the video no way supports the shooting of Preddy weeks later. That is mid level wit analysis. Right. The video is merely proving the point that this was a planned ongoing mission to create violent chaos which increases the risk for things that happen, terrible outcomes that involve Preddy. What was missing in that video was the police. You saw the spitting, you saw the destroying of property, but there was no cops there to stop it because the mayor told them to ignore the protocol. Think about the long term cost of that short term feel good virtue signal that allowed Jacob Frey to feel like a hero for a week. And two people died because he wanted to feel good. Talk about how selfish that is. If Freddie had been arrested, the trajectory of his life would have been markedly different. He would have been alive again, as I said about Ms. Good's death, these families, Freddie's family has a very good civil case of negligence against the city by not Coop with ice. Their son is dead. That is not on ice. That is Jacob Fry and Tim Waltz. At this point, you're looking at 12 figure lawsuits from any family that wishes to go forward. I think the video is really important, not for this case, but for, I guess the American psyche in general because not only does it show you context, it demystifies the aura of the protester. It tears away the heroic portrayal that the media often does with protesters. They did this during the Summer of Love that they made sure to keep you from seeing the looting and the fires and stuff. They needed to show the anguished faces of the people. And this also happened, and I'll get to it in a second with the pro Hamas supporters. What you saw in that video was the reality, the mindset of the people that are swayed into these moral panics. Angry, aggressive, infantile, childlike, unstable, looking for trouble, tragically finding it. The more you see this, the more America sees this, the better America is because you're going to reduce the number of tragedies by demystifying the romance of this action. The media presents an entirely opposite view of protesters. Hollywood movies do the same thing. That is the protester going home alone, sad and depressed, going out again and doing the same thing, going home, going out. They are troubled, sad people. And I said it about Goode's family and I'll say it with about Preddy's family. They didn't want their relative there. If you could talk somebody out of it, you would. You knew that it was a bad scene. If it was your sister, if it was your brother, you would do the same thing. And you know, you see these agitators swarming this Los Angeles restaurant cuz they mistook the TSA for ice. This, the groups are irrelevant. Swarming is swarming. They are hunting people. So they call people Nazis so they can act like Nazis. So this is where I'm at, where I'm wondering how a Jewish liberal. Not you, Jessica, just saying a Jewish liberal can see the same people who are demonizing ICE were the same people who demonize Jews after October 7th. And would you side with a group just because they're giving the Jews a month off? I don't know.
- [13:53]
Dana Perino
All right, coming up is Kamala Harris the political kiss of death. Well, Tim Wall says he'll never seek elected office again.
- [14:10]
Megan Alexander
Hi, I'm Megan Alexander and this is Middle East Tomorrow. Five years ago, the US brought leaders from Israel, Morocco, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain together to sign the Abraham Accords. That historic day ignited a cross border movement of change makers who are joining forces to reshape the region. Join me as I uncover the stories of the people transforming the Middle east today and tomorrow. Go to partners.foxnews.com met. I will not repeat what Greg just said as the music was playing. And I'm going to keep this on just might be the political kiss of death. Just ask her buddy Tim Walls. After bowing out from seeking a third term as Minnesota governor, Walz is now calling it quits on running for office. Ever watch this?
- [15:09]
Jesse Waters
In all fairness on the timing, I removed myself and then two days later, Renee Goode is murdered. But I think one of the things is I have no political consideration, will never run for an elected office again. Never again. Never again. And I will just do the work. And what I found is again, I'm gonna say this. There's heroes on the streets that we don't know their names. They're never gonna run for office. And those grass top leaders brought this administration to their knees this week to do something about it. So there's other ways to serve and I'll find them.
- [15:39]
Megan Alexander
Really. But just days ago, Tim Walls was acting like Mr. Tough Stuff, saying he'd whoop J.D. vance's keister in a debate. Redo.
- [15:49]
Jesse Waters
Out of him. Now if I could, and I would call that out, I mean that's just different. In verbally going at it, I could. My argument's much better.
- [16:00]
Megan Alexander
Interesting, right? Because Tim Walls let his National Guard troop deployment and that's when he conveniently got out of the military?
- [16:09]
Jesse Waters
Yes. He'll be running again if there's a war.
- [16:11]
Megan Alexander
So how does he go from I'm all whoop JD Vance's arse to I'm never running for office again in 48 hours?
- [16:18]
Jesse Waters
Well, it's not Kamala's fault. She didn't kill Waltz's career. Sunlight did. The guy was able to succeed because he was in the shadows. Nobody knew who he was. He operated in the darkness of layered bureaucracies, you know, where corruption and ineptitude can fester and flourish like an open sore. And then as long as every palm is greased in these nether regions, nobody knew. And it worked. It worked for a while, but then the ego enticed Waltz out of his sinecured lair. He liked the sound of Vice President Waltz. Surely they won't dig into his past or look at his books. And they did. And then he's like, well, wait a second. And then suddenly, he's the patsy. And now we're in this era of the peeling back of the Band Aid, Nick Shorter, you know, pulling the bandage. We see the sores of corruption, Dana, and it's happening all over. You know, the BLM charities, the voting systems, the homeless rackets, the climate scams. Doge may be done, but the mindset has been unleashed, and it seems unstoppable.
- [17:23]
Megan Alexander
Well, Dana, the one thing that he said that was actually true was it's not just happening in my state. So it's not just the corruption in Minnesota. It's the incompetence of the candidate and the governor. Was he ever viable?
- [17:38]
Dana Perino
No, I don't think so. And I also really disagree with the headline. I don't think Kamala Harris ruined his career. She provided rocket fuel to his career. And then he got exposed, as Greg was saying in the lair, he exposed himself. And it was disgusting, and I will never forget it. And so it's obvious stuff, right? He was bad in the debates, he's bad in the interviews. One of the things your vice presidential candidate is supposed to do is expose the other side, get under their skin, be the attack dog. And he wasn't. And he says something along the lines of he gave JD the benefit of the doubt in the debate rather than actually know he had never had a competitive race. And that's another thing that I think is a good lesson of all of this. You can vet the people through. You can say, okay, we're going to ignore this $9 billion in fraud that he let happen to his constituents. But if you are trying to run somebody who has never had a competitive race are likely not to do very well.
- [18:28]
Megan Alexander
Yes. And to Dana's point, like you are supposed to be the enforcer. Vance has always known that. He has known that he's Trump's enforcer and he actively goes after people. And Walls didn't have that skill set. Do you believe that if there, if there was a redo, if somehow he was the candidate in 2028, that walls.
- [18:48]
Greg Gutfeld
That's funny. No, I mean, he's going nowhere. This is the perfect example of the more incompetent you are, the higher you rise in Democrat politics and at Fox. You love shows, don't you? Walls, Biden, Harris, Newsom de Blasio, Karen Bass. These are people who are dumb. They look a certain way and they get elevated and told what to say. And the more power they get, the more exposed they get. And you see all of them crashing to the ground. He was only chosen because Kamala needed a midwestern white guy. Yes man who was non threatening. And he goes out and you look at his resume, death and riots and fraud and he bombs the debate. The reason he's not running again is just because he's not going to win. He's going to hand the governor's office back to a Republican. So he cuts a deal with Amy who eats a salad with a fork or a knife or a comb. Whatever she does, she's ridiculous. They're so scared of Republicans winning power, they'll do anything. Meanwhile, there's so much fraud under this guy's hood. He's trying to run away because he's broke and now he has to defend himself for the next couple years. Vance looks so good. Think about it. What an indictment of Kamala Harris. Trump picks Vance. Everyone's like, don't pick Vance, that's too risky. Meanwhile, she picks this guy and he's out of a job in a year. Vance now is polling ahead of every Republican in the primary. And this is an indictment of Harris more than anything else.
- [20:22]
Megan Alexander
Is it?
- [20:24]
Jessica Tarlov
No, it's not. I kind of think.
- [20:26]
Greg Gutfeld
You think she picked him and that was a good choice.
- [20:29]
Megan Alexander
She said that Pete Buttigieg was too gay and Josh Shapiro was too Jewish.
- [20:34]
Jessica Tarlov
His wife didn't have enough money for good hair and make. Yeah, I know, I've read all of it. I just, I think it's kind of a non story. I think it is about his own career and this fraud scandal and not that he's been personally implicated in it, but it was a lot of swirl about it and it was going to dog him the entire time that he was running for it and vet him about the fraud. Well, that. That has confused me still. That that didn't come out because it seems like there was a vetting process, obviously that went on and they asked Walls, according to Josh Shapiro's new book, obviously to him, about Israel and that Walls was asked about China. So there were conversations about things that could come out on the trail that would not be great. But, you know, the Republican Party wanted to get Walls out for sure and now they have Amy Klobuchar, who is one of the more popular politicians that you're going to find. You dismissed her. I don't know why. She's hugely effective and is going to win.
- [21:29]
Jesse Waters
She is a terrible speaker.
- [21:30]
Greg Gutfeld
Why is she so effective?
- [21:32]
Jesse Waters
But she sounds.
- [21:34]
Greg Gutfeld
What's so good about Amy Klobuchar?
- [21:36]
Jessica Tarlov
Well, she delivers for her people.
- [21:38]
Greg Gutfeld
What are you talking about? Delivers? What?
- [21:40]
Jessica Tarlov
What do you mean?
- [21:42]
Greg Gutfeld
Exactly what I said. Like, tell me about Amy, why she's so great. What bills? What?
- [21:47]
Jesse Waters
She has no sense of humor. She is not.
- [21:50]
Jessica Tarlov
Is this a joke?
- [21:50]
Jesse Waters
There's no.
- [21:51]
Jessica Tarlov
Every.
- [21:52]
Jesse Waters
Everything she does comes off as a cringe. Don't you remember every time she tried to do something, people would just go, God help us. Where did this thing come from?
- [22:01]
Greg Gutfeld
Her staff hates her. This is the only staff that hates her more than Kamala's staff.
- [22:06]
Jessica Tarlov
No, that's not.
- [22:07]
Jesse Waters
Yes, she eats her salad with a fork and she washes her hair with a spoon.
- [22:12]
Jessica Tarlov
I get where you were going with it.
- [22:14]
Megan Alexander
Anyway, she did stay in the race longer than just about any other Democrat in 2020. And she would have outlived Joe Biden if he had picked her as his vice president. Yeah, it would be a very different time. Coming up next, the Queen of rap goes maga. Nicki Minaj crowns herself President Trump's number one fan. Look at that fur. That's next. This is Ainsley Earhart. Thank you for joining me for the 52 episode podcast series the Life of Jesus.
- [22:50]
Greg Gutfeld
A listening experience that will provide hope, comfort and understanding of the greatest story ever told. Listen and follow now@foxnewspodcasts.com or wherever you listen to podcasts. Hello, guys. I'm with my favorite president, the best.
- [23:12]
Jesse Waters
President of all time.
- [23:15]
Greg Gutfeld
And I'm with the Queen of rap. Nicki Minaj is going maga. The queen of rap, joining President Trump at his Trump accounts event in D.C. not letting the haters get in the way of her love of 47.
- [23:30]
Jesse Waters
I am probably the President's number one fan. And that's not going to change. And the hate or what people have to say, it does not affect me at all. It actually motivates me to support him more and it's going to motivate all of us to support him more or we're not going to let them get away with bullying him. And, you know, the smear campaigns, it's not going to work. Okay.
- [24:04]
Greg Gutfeld
And it looks like Nikki is putting up numbers for Trump's Cash for babies plan. Scott Besant boasting There are already 1 million new signups this week. The rap star herself contributing up to 300,000 as well. 47 Heaping praise on Nikki for her contribution. And he might copy her style. I said, I am going to let my nails grow because I love those nails. I'm going to. I'm going to let those nails grow. Greg, I love this baby Bond account deal. It's one of the smartest things he's done.
- [24:38]
Jesse Waters
Yeah.
- [24:39]
Greg Gutfeld
I might have another baby just to get an account.
- [24:41]
Dana Perino
Yes.
- [24:42]
Greg Gutfeld
Well, that's a. I might have to check with Emma about me too, Jesse.
- [24:45]
Jesse Waters
Well, you know, you don't have to have it with Emma.
- [24:48]
Greg Gutfeld
So anyway, yeah, I do.
- [24:51]
Jesse Waters
You know, he said, Trump said that she's the greatest. What? The greatest female rapper ever. Which is weird. It's like saying the greatest female driver. I joke. I love Nicki Minaj and I. And why is a Republican celebrity worth 100 Democrats celebrities? Because they're more rare. That's why when you said, like, you bash us for having, for liking, you know, George Clooney and Ed Norton and then you get all happy about Nicki Minaj, it's because we don't have very many because there's a greater cost for them to come out. There's more antipathy directed at them. So it's just that much more brave when somebody does this. So she's kind of. She's worked like 4 Springsteens, 3 Ed Nortons and 10 Dave Matthews. Because for them, the louder they get when Springsteen cuts a song about Trump and Ed Norton says, like, I'm like, so unhappy. They get a lot of comfort food. They get a lot of accolades. Accolades. The experience is warm and fuzzy. There's no courage necessary. But you do this, she's gonna get a lot of hate from people. And she's gotta have one answer. Why do you care? Like, why did. Why must I fall in line? Because when everybody demands you to be with them and their respective, whatever their careers, it's because of their own self doubt.
- [26:13]
Greg Gutfeld
Dana. I remember in the Bush administration where he had this idea he was gonna privatize a little bit of Social Security, just like 5% or something like that. You put it in the market. Put it in your market. If you Democrats killed it, if that had gone through what a. Save Social Security and everyone would have been so much more better off.
- [26:29]
Dana Perino
I mean, not only Democrats killed it, but the Republicans were so far behind President Bush, you couldn't see him because they were like, oh, we can't because of all of these things. And they were afraid. But when this issue finally gets solved to protect Social Security, it will look a lot like that. What I love about this plan is that is it is showing a bet on the future for capitalism and it's for everybody. Right. If you think about. But it was Biden always talking about. Every six weeks, we had to talk about another deferment for student loans or a way to forgive student loans.
- [26:59]
Greg Gutfeld
Right.
- [26:59]
Dana Perino
And that was for a small slice of people. These bonds, these accounts are for everybody. Everybody can participate if they want to. But I liked about her in the Q and A, she did. She said when she was first coming out and starting to make some money, she made some huge mistakes because she didn't have any financial literacy. And she said the most important thing that she can do now is to talk about financial literacy to a group of people who really could benefit. Especially right now. Invest early. And if you start doing this and maybe your parents can contribute, maybe you're going to have somebody like a business that will contribute and you will be able to have a little bit of a head start. It's great.
- [27:36]
Greg Gutfeld
Compound interest. Jessica? Love it. Anything bad about that?
- [27:40]
Jessica Tarlov
No. I like compound interest. According to the guy who came up with this idea, it was pitched to the Biden administration and they weren't interested in it, which I think is a big miss. Especially because there are so many private investors, companies and individuals. Like Ray Dalio is going to do it for Connecticut. It's a nice way to leave a stamp. And it's like part of your legacy, especially if you want to give back to your community. So I think that was a missed opportunity. You know, Nicki Minaj, Greg already talked about these celebrities. They're like, you know, it's a swan event when it happens, and so it deserves a lot more attention.
- [28:17]
Megan Alexander
That's.
- [28:18]
Jessica Tarlov
I didn't. I felt like maybe it was racially weird because.
- [28:22]
Greg Gutfeld
Oh, because she's black. Wow. Is that how the Democrat mind thinks?
- [28:26]
Jessica Tarlov
To not be offensive?
- [28:27]
Greg Gutfeld
No. To not be crazy and woke?
- [28:30]
Dana Perino
No.
- [28:30]
Jessica Tarlov
I'm Whatever. That doesn't matter. Nicki Minaj came to this country as an illegal immigrant and she got here when she was five from Trinidad.
- [28:38]
Greg Gutfeld
What did you just say?
- [28:39]
Jessica Tarlov
She was here illegally and she's.
- [28:42]
Greg Gutfeld
No.
- [28:42]
Jessica Tarlov
And she's. She posted about it in 2018 during the family separation policy, which ended up being a huge, huge scandal for the Trump administration.
- [28:49]
Greg Gutfeld
Huge.
- [28:50]
Jessica Tarlov
It what?
- [28:51]
Greg Gutfeld
Well, all the scandals that comes to mind.
- [28:55]
Jessica Tarlov
The DHS secretary resigned over it, if you remember. It also had done that. I. I know things about Amy klobuchar now. Over 100 bills passed, including major legislation on consumer protection, domestic violence protection, elder abuse delivery for the farmers too.
- [29:12]
Jesse Waters
Wait, what did you go for? Elder abuse.
- [29:13]
Jessica Tarlov
She did all of it.
- [29:14]
Jesse Waters
Oh, she did really, really cool. She helped with Joe Biden.
- [29:18]
Greg Gutfeld
She basically spent a lot of money and it got ripped off by the Somalis.
- [29:22]
Jesse Waters
Before you get nominated, Biden. That was elder.
- [29:25]
Greg Gutfeld
Before we get to the accounts, greatest female rapper. How would you rank them?
- [29:29]
Megan Alexander
I would still put Missy Elliott at the very top. I love Queen Latifah, obviously. Sister soldier. Oh, yeah, Salt and pepper. You cannot, can't take anything away from them. Even though Cardi B has turned into a communist. I love her. I think Nicki Minaj is one of the best MCs out there.
- [29:48]
Greg Gutfeld
Absolutely.
- [29:48]
Megan Alexander
And she has a nice healthy waist to hip ratio.
- [29:52]
Jesse Waters
What about Debbie Harry?
- [29:54]
Megan Alexander
Yeah. Rapper's delight. Yes, absolutely.
- [29:57]
Greg Gutfeld
Yes.
- [29:58]
Megan Alexander
Sure. She name checked. Fab 5 Freddie.
- [30:01]
Dana Perino
Love it. Fab 5 Freddy. And also fire on all cylinders, on all pop culture. I love it.
- [30:06]
Megan Alexander
Whenever I need to be deployed, I.
- [30:09]
Jessica Tarlov
Will take it to the AJ Queen.
- [30:11]
Megan Alexander
But I will say this. When Trump runs in 2028, the an step aside for Nicki Minaj. We saw that today.
- [30:17]
Greg Gutfeld
Oh, I like that.
- [30:18]
Jesse Waters
Barron Trump.
- [30:21]
Greg Gutfeld
Trump Minaj. It kind of has a nice ring to it.
- [30:23]
Jesse Waters
Jessica Minajah Trump.
- [30:26]
Greg Gutfeld
Now we're talking. We'll run three people on the ticket. Coming up next. Joke. Scarborough confirms the obvious. He was Joe Biden's three chief butt kisser.
- [30:43]
Jesse Waters
ABC's David Muir, the most trusted anchor in America. The most watched anchor in America.
- [30:49]
Greg Gutfeld
Thank you for making World News Tonight.
- [30:51]
Jesse Waters
With David Muir, the number one newscast in America. Most trusted, most watched. David Muir on abc.
- [31:07]
Greg Gutfeld
Nephew, if you can't handle the truth, truth. This version of Biden intellectually, analytically, is the best Biden ever.
- [31:23]
Jesse Waters
F you. Joe Biden's biggest media bootlicker, Joe Scarborough, revealing how sleepy's handlers wanted him to kiss the ring harder.
- [31:34]
Greg Gutfeld
Joe Biden watched your show because he would call into the show sometimes he would. And I would hear from the chief of staff that worked for him. Be nice to the president, because when you're critical, well, it kind of screws up our debt. Does that affect how you approach doing your show?
- [31:51]
Jesse Waters
No, it doesn't.
- [31:52]
Greg Gutfeld
No, it doesn't. I mean, you know, the thing is, whether I was talking about Joe Biden or whether I'm talking about what Donald Trump's doing, the goal. My goal is your goal, which I think is everybody's goal. We want a better country.
- [32:05]
Jesse Waters
Jesse, could you find two more irrelevant people together interviewing each other?
- [32:12]
Greg Gutfeld
Yeah, that's not a great booking. Trump was watching Fox and Friends the other day. Apparently Kilmeade said, send home into Minneapolis, and an hour later, Trump did it. Imagine Biden was watching Fox and Friends.
- [32:28]
Jesse Waters
It would have saved his administration.
- [32:30]
Greg Gutfeld
He would have seen all these people pouring across the border. Border was open illusions, sticking a mic in their face. Where are you from? Cambodia? China, Ethiopia? And he would have said, guys, could we do something about this? Instead, he was watching Joe Scarborough. And his staff told Scarborough to tone it down because it ruined the day. Now, if they're telling Scarborough to tone it down, imagine what else they're keeping from Joe Biden.
- [32:55]
Jesse Waters
He is living in a fantasy world.
- [32:57]
Greg Gutfeld
They didn't tell him there was inflation. They didn't tell him there was a crime problem. They probably told him nothing. And imagine knowing you have that kind of power as Scarborough and still saying everything is fine. I mean, at least people on Fox tell Trump the truth. They're like, you know, Minneapolis might need to pivot, saying Rob Reiner deserved it. I mean, I didn't say those things, but people on the network do. And he listens and he pivots. Biden can't take in information and use it.
- [33:25]
Jesse Waters
Dana. This is like an incredible admission that he figures maybe a year later it doesn't matter. But he wasn't just wrong on all the big stories. Scarborough was dishonest. Yeah, he was dishonest to his viewers. He put the country at risk so he could still maintain his status to go on Kimmel's show.
- [33:42]
Dana Perino
He basically gave cover to the whole situation when people who were thinking that Joe Biden could actually serve another four years were writing checks and donating money, their hard earned money after tax dollars, in order to give money to a campaign that was sure to fail. The other thing is he heard, be nice to the President, otherwise it ruins our day. And he still wanted to cheer him on, not be like, whoa, that doesn't sound very good. And the Last thing I would say is the worst thing for Democrats is that they believe their own press. You have to. It's better to be more adversarial with the press and not believe your press because it makes you sharper and better.
- [34:20]
Jesse Waters
Jessica, I'm gonna go easy on you here because I understand when you're watching that video, it must be depressing cuz it's depressing for us. It's gotta be really depressing for you cuz those two are kind of on your side and they're both pathetic and irrelevant kind of smell. I mean, these are your men.
- [34:38]
Dana Perino
You're really going easy on her.
- [34:41]
Jessica Tarlov
My man. Smells great.
- [34:44]
Greg Gutfeld
Thank you.
- [34:45]
Jessica Tarlov
You are not my man. I just fail to believe that this kind of thing isn't happening in all administrations. I mean, Jesse went there saying that Donald Trump takes his cues from whatever show he's watching.
- [35:02]
Greg Gutfeld
His cues? Some cues, A lot of cues.
- [35:05]
Jessica Tarlov
And God bless you, Brian Kilmeade for that one. And keep talking about how the Ukrainians need more assistance because then maybe he'll go and do that. But I don't think that this is as rare of an occurrence as you would think. I think then saying I didn't listen to it at all, that really falls flat.
- [35:20]
Jesse Waters
This is pretty deliberate. To shield the Biden from the truth. Trump watches Fox and Friends and gets angry at stuff and calls in. It's like a very back and forth. This thing is like, just like, like make sure you don't ruffle this, this decrepit, senile old man or he's going to wet the bed.
- [35:40]
Megan Alexander
Kennedy, Newsom and Scarborough have a lot in common. They are narcissistic hacks who ran cover for Biden and operated as his shield. Scarborough was his shield in the media and Newsom did it politically. You know why? Because they both wanted power. They wanted access to power and Newsom wanted, wants to climb the ladder. And somehow he felt that, that stepping on Joe Biden's corpse and giving him a compliment on the way up would be a quick path to the presidency. They're both sorely mistaken and history will be very unkind to both of them. A quick media aside, I think, you know, in addition to watching Scarborough for peaceful propaganda, they were also giving President Biden some of the polls that Jessica likes to recite every once in a while on the show because Biden didn't watch the Five, but Kamala famously watching the Five every day and it would give her so much anxiety because it turns out no one on the show was going easy on her. Which, you know, is not a nice thing to do to the mentally deficient.
- [36:42]
Jesse Waters
That is so true. And I'm glad you used the correct phrase, not the R word, which is.
- [36:47]
Dana Perino
The whole article about that in the paper.
- [36:48]
Jesse Waters
Oh, about. You can't use the R word.
- [36:50]
Dana Perino
It's making a comeback. You were. You were mentioned.
- [36:52]
Jesse Waters
I know.
- [36:52]
Greg Gutfeld
Of course.
- [36:53]
Jesse Waters
She was my claim to fame. Thank you so much. First it was awful, and now it's the R word. And by R word, I mean wrong. Fastest is up next. I'm gonna pee.
- [37:13]
Jessica Tarlov
Intimate. Welcome back. We all have our weird eating habits, and treasury boss Scott Bessen is owning up to his deep, dark secret.
- [37:23]
Jesse Waters
My deep, dark secret is I have.
- [37:24]
Greg Gutfeld
A Dr. Pepper for breakfast. Not allowed to do it in the house with the children.
- [37:28]
Megan Alexander
That's your breakfast secretary.
- [37:30]
Jesse Waters
Don't tell Bobby Kennedy.
- [37:34]
Jessica Tarlov
Dana, I like Diet Coke, but I'm very into this kind of.
- [37:39]
Dana Perino
Do you remember when I went to Spain in September? I got sick there, and I've not had a Diet Coke since, so I'm trying to stay off of it. I'm trying. But I'll tell you something, I'm out. My sister right now, she drinks a Coke in the morning. She doesn't like coffee. She doesn't eat breakfast. Coke is her fuel in the morning.
- [37:55]
Jessica Tarlov
Regular Coke, not diet?
- [37:57]
Dana Perino
Yes.
- [37:57]
Jessica Tarlov
All right.
- [37:57]
Dana Perino
Full fuel.
- [37:59]
Jessica Tarlov
Greg, do you feel differently about Scott Bassett now that you know this?
- [38:02]
Jesse Waters
He said he's worried that his mother might find out that he drinks Dr. Bobby Kennedy. Oh, Bobby. Secretary Bobby Kennedy. Oh, I thought he was talking about his mom. You know what? Little known fact. Dr. Pepper secretly married Mr. Pibb in a Vegas wedding.
- [38:15]
Dana Perino
Oh, yeah.
- [38:16]
Jesse Waters
Yeah.
- [38:16]
Dana Perino
Very progressive.
- [38:17]
Jesse Waters
Yes, yes. It's a proprietary mixture, Jessica, of cherry vanilla, notes of licorice, and it tricks people into thinking it's prune. Like, but it's not.
- [38:29]
Dana Perino
Does it have it in Waco, Texas?
- [38:31]
Jesse Waters
That's right. I've been to the museum named after Charles T. Pepper.
- [38:34]
Dana Perino
Yep.
- [38:35]
Jessica Tarlov
Amazing. Jesse, what research did you do for.
- [38:37]
Greg Gutfeld
My block, your block, or anyone's block? Jesse, I'm just kidding. I got notes like Greg right here. Listen. What you're scoffing at my notes.
- [38:48]
Jesse Waters
Those are your notes.
- [38:49]
Jessica Tarlov
It says one more thing.
- [38:50]
Greg Gutfeld
These are. These are good. It's funny because everyone thinks, like, don't tell Bobby this guy's done heroin. Really? Do whatever you want. Right?
- [39:02]
Dana Perino
Do whatever you want.
- [39:03]
Megan Alexander
Heroin still has less sugar than a Dr. Pepper. Dr. Pepper has a lot less sugar than a Starbucks Grande frappuccino, which has 46 to 54 grams of sugar per serving. And this has 40. If he's having a Dr. Pepper with sugar, he may be having Dr. Pepper zero. Like, I don't fault anyone for their caffeine sugar intake in the morning. It's like we all got to do what we got to do and do it.
- [39:27]
Dana Perino
I like mushroom coffee.
- [39:29]
Megan Alexander
Rishi.
- [39:30]
Dana Perino
No, I like. Well, there's. I won't say the brand I like. There's one brand I really don't like. And then there's a brand I like. I got Martha hooked on it.
- [39:36]
Jesse Waters
That's a great story. Thank you.
- [39:38]
Greg Gutfeld
Mushroom coffee.
- [39:39]
Jessica Tarlov
One more thing is up next.
- [39:41]
Greg Gutfeld
Wasn't mushroom.

- [40:24]
Dana Perino
It's time now for one more thing, Jesse.
- [40:26]
Greg Gutfeld
Roses are red, violets are fine. It's almost Valentine's Day, so how about some wine?
- [40:32]
Dana Perino
Wow.

Greg Gutfeld
Fox Wine Shop now offering a new cabaret, the Velvet Room.

Jesse Waters
Fire them.

Megan Alexander
Lovely.

Greg Gutfeld
You got two glasses, a decanter. There's also a dauntless riveter rose. Just.
- [40:54]
Dana Perino
Just do in the Dr. Pepper and you got a deal.
- [40:56]
Greg Gutfeld
That's right.
- [40:57]
Jesse Waters
Saying Fox does not make enough money.
- [41:00]
Greg Gutfeld
We're not getting raises, remember? Tonight, Jesse Waters primetime Happy DEI Thursday.

Greg Gutfeld
What a great show.
- [41:14]
Jesse Waters
Kennedy, Charlie Hurt. Jamie lists out evil Shannon Bream. Hey, should we do this? Animals are great. Animals are great. Animals are great. You know, forget the View. Have you ever wondered if cattle can use tools? Check this out. This is a cow polo using a tool, a deck brush, to scratch her itches. This is the first time in recorded history that a cow has used a tool. That's not Veronica in Austria. And get this, getting the fifth seat on the View.
- [41:57]
Greg Gutfeld
Oh, fat shaming.
- [42:00]
Jesse Waters
No, I'm cow shaming. No one does insulting the cow.
- [42:03]
Dana Perino
I'm gonna give a shout out to the St. Louis Fire Department. They came to the rescue of a chili canine. Check out this little guy. He was stuck. The ice gave way. He was in a threatening situation. The first responders acted so quickly and they rescued that dog from that frigid water. So thank you for that and thank you, everyone.
