Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Patriotism and America's Birthday (00:04–08:36)

• Opening Reflection on Patriotism:
  The Five laments waning patriotism, citing a survey claiming only 27% of Democrats feel proud of America.

  • Greg Gutfeld: Critiques performative progressive sadness about the holiday, noting, “They have replaced patriotism with self-indulgent drama. Identity, that's the crux of their discontent.” (04:59)
  • Dana Perino: “Why can't they just be happy for one day? Come on, let's be…choose to be happy and say America's great.” (05:17)
  • Jesse Watters: Draws an analogy comparing liberals' attitude toward America to parents who can’t say “I love you” to a high-achieving child. “Treat your country like your son. He's made some mistakes, he's done some great things, but he's your son and you love him unconditionally. Wouldn't hurt maybe on his birthday to say, 'I'm proud of you.'” (07:55)
  • Joey Jones: Emphasizes the diversity and opportunity of America, referencing Secretary of the Navy Hung Kiao as an example of American promise:
    “Son of refugees from Vietnam…one of the most powerful people in our military and humble in doing it. That's the kind of country we live in.” (02:13)

• US Men’s Soccer Victory: Brief celebration as the national team defeats Bosnia, taking pride in another “reason to celebrate” (01:45).

2. Democratic Hypocrisy on Wealth & “Tax the Rich” (10:24–20:14)

• Jessica Tarlov: Highlights the irony of progressive politicians (like Ro Khanna and Gov. J.B. Pritzker) who campaign against the wealthy despite their own sizable fortunes:
  “There's something very effeminate about a man who lives high on the hog off of another man's money…You should make your own money.” —Jesse Watters (12:11)

• Greg Gutfeld:

  • Contrasts Elon Musk's contributions with other billionaires, spotlighting Musk’s investments in technology benefiting humanity, reducing carbon emissions, and philanthropy:
    “He got the internet to the poorest countries in the world. Pritzker has never done anything for anybody but his family.” (16:06)
  • Rails against what he calls “luxury beliefs”—progressives’ calls for redistribution and regulation that often seem not to apply to themselves. “They care about our wealth. They want control over our money. … There’s something really–they want to tax Venmo transactions. I can’t get over that.” (19:58)

• Joey Jones: Notes both parties have their billionaire supporters who adjust their principles for profit and predicts the wealth tax/billionaire issue will be central in 2028 elections. (17:56)

3. Benjamin Franklin Joins "Who Said It: Founders or Dolly Parton?" Game (21:17–27:32)

• The group welcomes a Ben Franklin impersonator who moderates a game where the hosts guess whether classic quotes are from Franklin/fellow Founders or Dolly Parton.
  • Memorable banter:
    • “You banged his wife, didn't you?” —Greg, joking to Franklin about John Adams (22:44)
    • “Women didn't get quite the recognition back in your day, huh? They should have. Dolly would have been a fan.” —Jessica Tarlov (24:34)
    • “They consider women full people now.”—Jesse, with Franklin replying, “You know, sir, I have always considered women full people.” (26:35–26:42)
  • Lighthearted and educational, the segment draws laughs and cleverly weaves in conversations about gender equality, history, and popular culture.

4. Thermostat Wars & Climate Control Hypocrisy (28:12–33:38)

• Discussion of NYC's Ongoing Heat Wave and Climate Edicts:

  • Critique aimed at Mayor O ran Mamdani’s directive for New Yorkers to set thermostats at 78°F.
    • “First they tell you how cold to keep your room, and then they can tell you how much sex you can have. It’s a slippery slope… This is how communism starts.” —Jesse Watters (30:18)
  • Dana Perino: Calls out selective rules for the elites (referencing the EU’s AC rules, where upper floors—reserved for high-ranking officials—can have AC when others can’t):
    “If you're the lower class, you're below stairs…you do that. While we…I’ve got important work to do.” (29:14, 33:19)

• Contrasts With Texas Policy:

  • Jessica and Joey call for consistency, noting Texas recommends similar temperature guidelines during grid strain, yet Republicans criticize NYC’s approach but overlook their own state's advisories.

5. The Risk of AI Fakes and Vacations (34:16–37:43)

• Joey Jones: Introduces concerns of AI fakes in travel, referencing a study showing few people can spot faked destination photos.
• Dana Perino: Her real worry: AI deepfakes in news broadcasting causing global crises, rather than being fooled into booking a bad beach trip:
  “…live in fear that I'm going to be the one who's anchoring a show that has a deep fake that causes, like, a war. That's my biggest concern.” (34:39)
• Greg Gutfeld: Satirizes beauty and imagery on TV:
  • “This topic, fake travel photos, is rich coming from people wearing hair and makeup…if you've ever seen Dana without her hair and makeup, it's absolutely atrocious.” (36:54)
  • Points out the disconnect between airbrushed/promoted images and reality—applies to vacation marketing and media alike.

6. One More Thing: Quirky American Stories (38:00–40:47)

Several quick, feel-good or oddball stories to close the show:

• Greg: Plays video of an armadillo cooling off in a Memphis zoo, jokingly comparing its rolling skills to Fox anchors.
• Jesse: Highlights his non-functioning fan necklace and teases his primetime TV lineup.
• Dana: Notes English soccer fans visiting a Braves baseball game and serenading outfielder Michael Harris.
• Joey: Tells of two runaway miniature horses causing “the Wild West” in a Memphis suburb.
• Jessica: Shares a story about the US Air Force Thunderbirds flying over the Hoover Dam with a massive flag.

Transcript

[Jesse Watters]

Hello, everyone.

[Dana Perino]

I'm dana perino along with joey jones, jessica tarlov, jesse waters and greg gutfeld. It's five o' clock on the national mall in washington, d.c. and this is the five. It is red, white and blazing here in the nation's capital as the Great American State Fair gets underway. We are celebrating America's 250th birthday. Temperatures here soaring to around 102 degrees. But it's like fine. A little heat isn't going to melt our patriotic spirit. There are some liberals, on the other hand, they are not feeling very chill with the whole red, white and blue. Only 27% of Democrats say that they are proud of the country. And for some, patriotism has become a full blown identity crisis.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Watch.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I've been struggling with what are we actually celebrating?

[Jesse Watters]

And so I'm really going into July

[Greg Gutfeld]

4th, grappling with whether or not the ugly ghost of our country have us by the nape of the neck.

[Dana Perino]

Mika I took one of those sightseeing boats and I passed by Ellis island and the Statue of Liberty and it brought me to tears. I'm not going to his celebrations. I'm going to do my own set of celebrations. You know, this is an opportunity for us all to come together and to celebrate the promise of America. Not Donald Trump, because everything Donald Trump does is about Donald Trump. But President Trump is ready to celebrate 250 years of freedom no matter how high the temperature climbs. Watch here.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

By the way, on July 4th, it's

[Greg Gutfeld]

going to be approximately 107 degrees out. And I'm going to go and I'm

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

going to make a really long speech

[Jesse Watters]

just to show that I can do anything.

[Jessica Tarlov]

What about us?

[Dana Perino]

And America has another reason to celebrate the US Men's National Team defeating Bosnia 2 nil last night, punching their ticket to the next round of the World Cup. Let's go back, though, to the Democrats who on other cable channels are miserable. Joey Jones. And I think about how you signed up to protect Americans no matter who they are.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Yeah, I like all of them. Well, I love all of them. I don't like all of them. I don't even like all my family, much less. I don't understand. It's, it's the role they're playing. It's, they're doing their part for their party. They can't be honestly that they can't have that much animosity towards a country that has provided them the life they have. There's not one person that gets to go on television and complain about the country that Isn't living a charmed life right now doesn't mean they don't have hardships. We all do. But this is the kind of country where Hung Kiao, the Secretary of the Navy, can be the son of refugees from Vietnam and become one of the most powerful people in our military and be humble in doing it. That's the kind of country we live in. And if they have a problem with it, I mean, I don't know, go.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Who do we.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Who did we beat in the soccer game? Go to that place.

[Dana Perino]

Bosnia Herzegovina. Two names. Your name? Greg. You know, we prepare for a show. You make notes for a show. Do you think they made art? You know, they are, like, labored over their notes to go on those.

[Greg Gutfeld]

No, Dana, they can't. They're too busy in agony. It is hard to prepare for a show when you're in tears or when you're struggling to understand patriotism. That guy, one of the people there, was struggling so much, but he still was able to make it to tv. I think that part of this is sour grapes. It's not them throwing the party. You know, it's like when I wandered into Langan's Bar and Grill for Hannity's Christmas party, and no one would talk to me, even though we're the same company. I get it, though. I should have worn a shirt. But still, I mean, we're. It's kind of patriotism. We both believe in Fox. Anyway, there is a thread among the naysayers. You got Eddie Cloud saying he's struggling, as if he's, you know, trying to take a sh. And a body cast. You got Tara Sedmeier saying Ellis island brought tears to her eyes. No, she's lying. She's absolute. We always know they're lying. It's like when they say they're shaking when they're reading Donald Trump's tweets. Jaya Paul says she's gonna celebrate on her own. That's one way to tell everybody, you don't have any friends. They can't play nice for one day? Not even one day. My point being my notes. The trait they all have in common is they're so dramatic. The theater of emotions is vast and deep. I'm struggling. I'm in tears. I'm isolating. Imagine if these idiots had real life obstacles, like, you know, the kind that their constituents face due to their policies, the policies that they don't actually have to obey, which is why they got into power. I'm still trying. I still find it hard to believe that she Said she was brought to tears. I want to see film of that. So let me get to my last point. Excuse me. This is a good point. They have replaced patriotism with self indulgent drama. Identity, that's the crux of their discontent. To share a love for your country means that you have to take action outside yourself. And they've been taught for 10 years it's all about you. So they can't bear one day letting go of their, you know, ticked boxes of identity. Especially in this era, you know, it has to be me, me, me, me, all that, all the time. Instead of we, we, we all the way home.

[Dana Perino]

As we would know a little bit about Jessica. Why can't they just be happy for one day? Come on, let's like be, choose to be happy and say America's great.

[Joey Jones]

Yeah, I mean, I'm very glass half full. It's also way too hot to be combative, frankly. So that's the secret that you're just make it 100 degrees and we fold completely. I honestly most of all am concerned for the people who are out here. It is too hot. If you are older or if you have a small child here, go inside. It was cool. I went into a few of the pavilions. Pavilions? Yes. Hawaii and Alaska sharing spot. I heard of the band out of Guam. So it's cool. There was a long line out of New York, which I took as a personal affirmation of my home state. And happy 4th of July.

[Dana Perino]

All right, Jesse Waters, you are a proud American. What'd you do today?

[Jesse Watters]

I went to the Pentagon to say hi to Hegseth.

[Greg Gutfeld]

And they let you in?

[Jesse Watters]

They did. They did. I'm a patriot. Greg, permission to make an analogy?

[Dana Perino]

Okay.

[Jesse Watters]

All right. So some of these liberal parents are like. These liberals are like valedictorians. Right. Their son is the greatest kid in high school, captain of the football team, free ride to Harvard. Everyone loves this kid. The students love him. Other parents love him. But the parents of the star will not tell their son, I love you. They will not say, son, I am proud of you.

[Greg Gutfeld]

This is personal.

[Jesse Watters]

Oh, my God, you're right. You know, maybe he screwed up and crashed the family car, but he got a summer job, paid the repairs. I'm just thinking, like, we just went to the moon, right? Like we just won the gold in the hockey. The Knicks just won the title. There's so much to be proud of in this country.

[Greg Gutfeld]

How does the Knicks. How is that included? They didn't beat another country.

[Jesse Watters]

There are a lot of international players on the other team, France. I've been there, by the way. I'm not sure if you've heard, but

[Joey Jones]

Paris is beautiful, in case you didn't know.

[Jesse Watters]

Like, the whole world is coming here and saying how great this country is, and the Democrats don't even see it. And I'm looking through the Journal this morning. I do read.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah.

[Jesse Watters]

And, and they, they rattled off the inventions that this country is responsible for. The telephone, the cotton gin, gps. I mean, I used to get lost in my own neighborhood.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah.

[Jesse Watters]

These things are critical for the advancement of this country, but all of human civilization. So treat your country like your son. You know what? He's made some mistakes. He's done some great things, but he's your son and you love him unconditionally. And it wouldn't hurt maybe on his birthday to say, I'm proud of you, to say that I love you. God, this is hitting home. Try it sometime.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Arthur, when you were younger, you owned slaves.

[Jesse Watters]

No.

[Dana Perino]

Not.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Yes.

[Jesse Watters]

Slavery was a stain, Greg. You're right. But we overcame.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes.

[Jesse Watters]

And you should not hate that. You should be proud of that.

[Dana Perino]

All right, you can always do an analogy. But I think, Greg, that was the

[Greg Gutfeld]

best analogy you've ever done.

[Jesse Watters]

I'm so hot now.

[Dana Perino]

Coming up next, Democratic lawmakers are getting called out over their tax the rich hypocrisy. Wait till you hear this.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Some days you just breathing, just trying to break even. Sometimes your heart's pounding out of your chest.

[Jesse Watters]

Sometimes it's just beating. Some days you just wide on set.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Action.

[Greg Gutfeld]

250 years ago, a nation born in revolution founded by an idea. Freedom. That one simple declaration took us to

[Dana Perino]

places we never dreamed of. From 13 small colonies to 50 United States.

[Jesse Watters]

From fledgling republic to leader of the free world.

[Greg Gutfeld]

We don't always agree, but we're free. Free, free, free to disagree.

[Jesse Watters]

America isn't just a place.

[Greg Gutfeld]

It's an idea the world depends on.

[Dana Perino]

And freedom, like all great ideas, grow stronger with time.

[Jesse Watters]

[Jessica Tarlov]

Ain't this rich? The biggest proponents of the liberals war on the wealthy are some of the biggest fat cats around. A new report is shining a light on anti billionaire crusader Ro Khanna's family's wealth. It is estimated as much as 340 million dollars including a 6 million dollar home complete with an elevator. I'm not going to deny a man an elevator. And family trusts that traded more than $53 million on the stock market last year alone. Oh, and by the way, all that money came from his moneybags father in law. Speaking of rich guys who didn't really earn it, the baron of the buffet. Yeah, that's Illinois Governor J.B. pritzker. He wants everyone to know he's one of the good billionaires.

[Dana Perino]

Do you think billionaires belong in politics? Since you are a billionaire who is in politics?

[Jesse Watters]

You know, I completely understand when people

[Jessica Tarlov]

feel like looking at Elon Musk.

[Jesse Watters]

Look at Donald Trump and the way

[Jessica Tarlov]

he has treated working class and middle class people.

[Jesse Watters]

The fact is that I understand why people feel as they do.

[Dana Perino]

So you think you're a billionaire who, who can be different for voters?

[Jesse Watters]

That's a funny way to say it. Whatever your income level is, the question

[Jessica Tarlov]

is, are you going to deliver for people? And I think I've proven I have. Jesse, you know a thing or two about pulling yourself up by your bootstraps and making it happen. I don't know that Pritzker does. I mean, you know, he inherited a lot of money from his dad, but apparently that doesn't matter. He knows what people struggle with. And even though he's got billions and you know, explained away his gambling and all that, he still knows how to help people out. And it's to tax his peers, I guess.

[Jesse Watters]

Yeah, so he inherited a lot of money and there's nothing wrong with that. I hope to one day bequeath my son and daughters a fortune and then hide it from the tax man.

[Jessica Tarlov]

That's exactly right.

[Jesse Watters]

But what he's trying to do, he's trying to push policies so other people can't make a fortune. And right now, since he's inherited his wealth, he doesn't have a lot of income. So you can push for higher taxes, but it's not really taxable. And everybody knows they're never going to do a wealth tax because it's unconstitutional. And then there's Roe, who married an heiress. That is weak. There's something very effeminate about a man who lives high in the hog off of another man's money. I don't like that you should make your own money. Now his father in law made a fortune in transmission parts in the automobile industry. And if all of his commie Allies had their way, he would have never made a fortune because they're trying to ban the internal combustion engine. So Roe and Pritzker, you're talking a big game because you think the commies are going to eat you last, but they're coming for you too, Dana.

[Jessica Tarlov]

You know, Ro Khanna has tried to paint himself over the last couple of years as this more moderate guy. And then the more you learn about him, the more you see that that's not really true. And he's kind of come out of the closet on that with, with Plattner up in Maine. I mean, he stuck by him as much as anyone, but he still kind of wants people to believe he's for the regular person, you know, and he, he's really good at messaging or he's at least good at titling his initiatives and his ideas. But then you find out, like his kids own golf courses. And listen, I'm not, I'm not mad at him for having an elevator in his house. I get it. I don't have one in my house. But, you know, but I don't understand why any of the Democrats think that Americans have lost faith in the American dream so much that we don't want to see anyone get wealthy.

[Dana Perino]

It has been a mystery to me. I enjoy when Ro Khanna comes on the show. He's willing to be on Fox. I had no idea if he was wealthy or not. I really had no idea. The Free Beacon does this big piece. I'm like, oh, my gosh. And then I was like, okay, so he's. I knew. And I guess I learned a couple of weeks ago that he was rich. Okay. I thought maybe because he's from Silicon Valley, maybe he was involved in the tech business or something.

[Jesse Watters]

Yeah.

[Dana Perino]

And then when I read this, I had a similar reaction to Jesse. I'm like, so wait, it's not your money, but you want to take other people's money? And I find it to be right in line with where champagne socialism or limousine liberalism has been around for a long time. And that's what you've seen for a while. But then you have the situation where they use tax shelters to hide the income that their 10 year olds have because they own golf courses. And I want everybody in America to have the opportunity to make as much money as possible. I think that they contribute to things. Another thing that was said in there was what Pritzker said. What has. Look at what Elon Musk has done to the lower and middle classes. What is. What has he done? Please tell me like how has he harmed lower and middle class people in this country? That doesn't make any sense to me.

[Jessica Tarlov]

We made what, 5,000 of them millionaires when he went public the other day? Yeah. I mean, if you stack up billionaires for either party or either side, most of the time it's less about their principles and more about where they can get more money at. I know billionaires in Texas that are, that have voted for Republicans and are invested in solar farms because they can get taxpayer money. Like it's, I guess, a dirty world. But at the end of the day, is there a billionaire out there that's done more as far as investing in the success of this country than Elon Musk?

[Greg Gutfeld]

Well, first of all, he doesn't own a house.

[Dana Perino]

Right.

[Greg Gutfeld]

He doesn't live like a trillionaire billionaire or even a millionaire. I think he just keeps his salary minimum to like 50 some odd grand. All the money that he owns goes back into investing in the company, in wages, you name it. The guy invented a technology that helps paralyzed people communicate. He's looking for the next frontier for earthlings. The whole thing about going to Mars is to save the. Save Earth. Who else is doing that? What else has he done? He's, I think he's the more responsible for the carbon reductions.

[Joey Jones]

Yes.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Than all environmentalists combined because Tesla was so successful and he got the Internet to the poorest countries in the world. Pritzker has never done anything for anybody but his family. He hasn't helped a single person. He's. I know he's lost a lot of weight, so I don't want to call him a fat pig, but he's a pig just for doing that. For soiling. For soiling Elon Musk. But you can't, you can't. As one billionaire to another, you can't hold a candle to him. You know, we've seen loads of politicians who preach family values and then privately cheat on their spouses. What Ro Khan is doing is worse because what he's preaching is, affects your family and how you want to save and invest and protect your family's wealth so your kids have something later in life. What he's doing is trying to prevent that while doing the same thing that he's condemning with his family. How do his kids own part? Parts of three golf courses. And when you think about it, those golf courses are huge. They, they would be great sanctuary oasis for illegals or trans.

[Dana Perino]

They should build affordable housing on them yet.

[Greg Gutfeld]

No, they should. They should. I mean, this guy is so greedy. They should Enforce this, the luxury beliefs that he pushes on other people, on himself. He should open up those golf courses for the homeless, for. For the trans, for anybody who doesn't play golf, Jessica.

[Jessica Tarlov]

So there is a narrative here that people will listen to. I mean, it's this idea of, hey, you've got more than you could ever use. Why not spread it back into the, into the public trust and let people have some of it? Why not tax the billionaires? Why are the billionaires even against it? Do you think that's something that you campaign for in 2028?

[Joey Jones]

Well, they're definitely going to. And Donald Trump even campaigned saying that the way that the system is designed penalizes the little gu. And he advertised, I'm the guy who actually knows where all the loopholes are. And people said, well, that's what makes him smart, right? That he finds his way around the system. To go through a 2028 primary, which both JB Pritzker and RO Khanna are going to want to do, is going to be tough on this question because there has been a huge amount of animus towards the wealthy. Ginned up on my side, to some degree on the right, but to a much lesser degree. And I think, you know, doing things for billionaires, like taking the giving pledge, for instance, that you're going to give away all your money or advertising your philanthrop philanthropy. I mean, according to articles, Ro Khanna's father in law is a great philanthropist. I would be leading with that. For instance, if you want to talk about a wealth tax or a billionaires tax. But it's going to be a very salient issue in 2028 for sure. And on the Elon Musk front, I am the first to talk about the amazing good that he has put out into the universe for everything from the CARS to Neuralink to Starlink, making life more convenient. But there are, you know, real complaints that you can have about, you know, what he did at Doge and forcing inspectors generals who were investigating his companies that they ended up getting fired. Like he's not a saint here.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That's what. That's not what they're talking about. Well, I wish I knew.

[Joey Jones]

I told you when it happened.

[Greg Gutfeld]

No, but the Doge stuff is a real achievement. That's why you're upset by it.

[Joey Jones]

The bottom line is set by somebody firing the guy that's looking into how you got all of these government contracts.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Jessica, the bottom line is none of us here cares about what Ro Khanna makes.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Nope.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Nobody cares what Pritzker makes. Nobody cares how wealthy they are. They care about our wealth. They want control over our money. I don't. I never. I would like to. I never knew about Ro Khanna. I had no idea. But he somehow wants to know about what we do. There's something really that they want to

[Jessica Tarlov]

tax a Venmo transactions. I can't get over that.

[Dana Perino]

All of their policies are anti growth. And growth is the only thing that would actually help.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Ironic that it's Pritzker.

[Jessica Tarlov]

You know what we talk about like everybody in this country. I want Democrats and Republicans to be able to hide their money from the government. That's just me.

[Dana Perino]

That's right.

[Joey Jones]

All right, well, good news as they

[Jessica Tarlov]

can for America 250. We're bringing back one of the guys who kicked this whole thing off.

[Jesse Watters]

Well, don't you worry, baby. Don't worry. Because I'm right here, baby. Right here, Right here.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Right here at home.

[Jesse Watters]

Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner I'm a lover and I'm a sinner. Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Now I was looking for fun ways

[Jessica Tarlov]

to tell you that Mint's offer of

[Greg Gutfeld]

unlimited Premium Wireless for $15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills, but it turns out that's very illegal.

[Jessica Tarlov]

So there goes my big idea for the commercial.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Give it a [e-mail] Switch upfront payment

[Joey Jones]

of $45 for three months, $90 for six months or $180 for a 12 month plan required $15 per month equivalent taxes and fees. Extra initial plan term only greater than 50 gigabytes. Me slow when network is busy. See terms.

[Jesse Watters]

An America 250 exclusive. He's been keeping a low profile since 1790, but now one of America's most electrifying founding fathers is back. Benjamin Franklin. Welcome to the Five.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Thank you, thank you. It's my pleasure to be here. Well, actually at my age, sir, it's a pleasure to be anywhere.

[Jesse Watters]

Well, we're glad you're here. Are those bifocals?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Well, they are my double spectacles. Indeed.

[Jesse Watters]

Okay, can you make out Greg Gutfeld over there? He's, he's. Can you see him?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Yes, yes, yes. There he is.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Where are you going with this? Jesse?

[Jesse Watters]

I was about to say he's almost equal to your intellect.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Thank you, Jesse. By the way, I gotta say you smell great for a 200 year old corpse.

[Dana Perino]

Yeah, not bad.

[Greg Gutfeld]

What do you wear?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Well, sir, I'm not corpse. I'm quite, quite Alive.

[Dana Perino]

Quite alive. Well, we're glad you're here and thank you for all you've done for our country.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Well, thank you so very much. It's my pleasure. My pleasure.

[Jesse Watters]

All right, Ben, now we're going to conduct a little game of who said it, A founding father or Dolly Parton? Are we ready? You lead us off with the questions, Mr. Franklin. Let's go.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Facts are stubborn.

[Jesse Watters]

Facts are stubborn. Dolly.

[Joey Jones]

You're the only Dolly.

[Jesse Watters]

No, I'm going with the founders.

[Joey Jones]

Yeah.

[Jesse Watters]

Okay, answer.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

John Adams.

[Dana Perino]

Yeah. Good. Did you like him? Were you friends?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Most of the time.

[Greg Gutfeld]

You banged his wife, didn't you?

[Joey Jones]

Craig? The family.

[Dana Perino]

It said it in one of the books.

[Jesse Watters]

All right, bring him out right now. Let's confront him. Where's.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Quote, the second one.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Where's Chris Hansen?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Oh, I'm sorry. That's not the second one. This is the second one. The way I see it, if you want rainbows, you gotta put up with the rain.

[Dana Perino]

Oh, wow. Five says Dolly Parton.

[Jesse Watters]

All right. Everybody had Dolly.

[Dana Perino]

Are you a fan of Dolly Parton?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

I have no idea who she.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Oh, you would have loved her, man. She is your type of chick.

[Dana Perino]

That's. She's America's sweetheart.

[Greg Gutfeld]

You'd be inventing electricity every night.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

I. I can imagine from the image.

[Jesse Watters]

Yes.

[Dana Perino]

Well, we should get you. We should get you a full size picture.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Number three, if we may. Move on. Yes.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Ooh.

[Jesse Watters]

Ooh, this is a hard one.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Yes.

[Jesse Watters]

Watch yourself, Franklin.

[Dana Perino]

Who said it? Who said it?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

I did.

[Jesse Watters]

Yeah, there you go.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That's a pickup line.

[Jessica Tarlov]

All right, we're in this to win it. Where are we going?

[Jesse Watters]

You're losing, Joey.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, I'm undefeated. The quote is, you're just unfeeded.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Find out who you are and do it on purpose.

[Dana Perino]

Find out who you are and do it on purpose.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Oh, that's gotta be Dolly.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, it's Dolly Parton.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Indeed. It's Dolly Parton.

[Jessica Tarlov]

There we go.

[Dana Perino]

Are you surprised at how smart we are?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Well, I'm surprised at how verbal Ms. Parton is.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

I'm not familiar with her.

[Greg Gutfeld]

America's Sweetheart, country music singer.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Women didn't get quite the recognition back in your day, huh? They should have. Dolly would have been a fan.

[Dana Perino]

Do you think women should have had the vote? Jessica would like to know from the get go.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Probably only.

[Jesse Watters]

Probably safe.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Probably.

[Jesse Watters]

Yeah. Safe. Good move.

[Dana Perino]

Do you think they should be allowed to drive?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Okay.

[Dana Perino]

Should they be allowed to drive.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Drive a carriage.

[Dana Perino]

Yeah.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Nicely done.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

They do all the Time on the farm.

[Jessica Tarlov]

That's true.

[Dana Perino]

Okay, what's next?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I gotta go with that.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Too many words for Dolly. Roger,

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

My good friend Thomas Jefferson.

[Jesse Watters]

Hey, Tommy.

[Jessica Tarlov]

All right, we got one left. We got a couple.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Diligence is the mother of good luck.

[Dana Perino]

Ah.

[Jesse Watters]

Founders. Yeah.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Yes.

[Dana Perino]

Wow.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Well, I'm glad I said that, but I don't remember.

[Jesse Watters]

I don't remember most of the things I say on the show.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Neither does the audience.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

The quote is true. If your actions create a legacy that inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, then you are an excellent leader.

[Jesse Watters]

I don't even really care.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, the long one.

[Jesse Watters]

I'm going with Dolly.

[Dana Perino]

Oh.

[Jesse Watters]

Oh, I got it. You are no longer undefeated.

[Dana Perino]

No, I was always Dolly.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

All right.

[Dana Perino]

How dare you, sir?

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Well, I'm thinking the quote is, yes, an investment in knowledge pays the best interest.

[Jesse Watters]

You probably said that one again, didn't you?

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah.

[Jesse Watters]

You stacked these.

[Dana Perino]

Oh, now we see what's going on here.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Yes, well, I had a lot to say in my time.

[Dana Perino]

Yeah.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

I love to write as well.

[Jessica Tarlov]

I get to look at Dolly. Y' all get to look at Dolly.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.

[Jesse Watters]

I'm gonna go with Dolly. Here we go.

[Dana Perino]

I'm gonna go, Dolly.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Dolly.

[Jesse Watters]

We're good at this.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Yes, you are. This woman is quite a person.

[Joey Jones]

She's a.

[Jesse Watters]

They consider women full people now. Yes.

[Greg Gutfeld]

She actually worked nine to five.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

You know, sir, I have always considered women full people.

[Jesse Watters]

Yeah, I heard.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Always. Did you really?

[Jesse Watters]

It's been written about.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Ah.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

And probably whispered, too.

[Jesse Watters]

Yes, indeed.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

The quote is, well done is better than well said.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That's a.

[Jesse Watters]

You think it's Spartan?

[Greg Gutfeld]

No. Benjamin Franklin myself.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Benjamin Franklin. Thank you. Thank you.

[Jesse Watters]

All right, last one, everybody.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Okay, we have several more.

[Greg Gutfeld]

You wanted to work.

[Jesse Watters]

This will be the last one.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

This will be the last one.

[Jesse Watters]

Give a thing called a commercial break.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

Ah.

[Jessica Tarlov]

A what?

[Joey Jones]

I'll tell you, the lights on.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Oh. Nicely done.

[Benjamin Franklin (impersonator)]

You'll never do a whole lot unless you're brave enough to try.

[Dana Perino]

Dolly.

[Jesse Watters]

That's Dolly, right?

[Jessica Tarlov]

Come on.

[Joey Jones]

Oh. Did I just ruin my perfect self?

[Jesse Watters]

Dolly Parton.

[Jessica Tarlov]

There we go.

[Dana Perino]

Dolly.

[Jessica Tarlov]

There we go.

[Jesse Watters]

Ben Franklin.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Thank you so much. Great job.

[Dana Perino]

Here, stick around. I'll show you a picture of Dolly Parton in the break.

[Jessica Tarlov]

There we go.

[Jesse Watters]

He's got to make it back to Philadelphia before the redcoats catch up. And speaking of the redcoats, Zoran Bandani demands your thermostat be set at 78 degrees.

[Greg Gutfeld]

New York socialist brat is coming for your thermostat as a blistering heat wave flame broils the Big Apple. New York City mayor's o ran Mandani is demanding New Yorkers set their academy to 78 degrees. So I have an interesting question, Dana. Okay, so when he. When he demands stuff from people, he's very selective. It's like the rich have to pay for this. There's always a protected class, but here it's a group effort. He says everybody. Why didn't he make the exception for the protected classes? Why is it different with this and not with our money?

[Dana Perino]

Tell me.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I think it's because he knew that if he applied the same principle he does to our personal wealth, to something like air conditioning, he would have been barbecued.

[Dana Perino]

Yep. And deservedly so. Here's the other thing. This happened in the EU last week. Remember? When they were having the heat wave? So at the EU building, they said floors one through seven were not allowed to have air conditioning. Yeah. Guess where all the fancy people work.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Yes.

[Dana Perino]

And above the. Above that and 8 and above. So they could have air conditioning. But the poor masses, like the ones who like, maybe didn't get a college degree, you weren't allowed to have air conditioning. So you start rationing things. The thing that Daran Mamdani could have done is push back on liberals. Who took away Indian Point.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Right.

[Dana Perino]

Indian Point was a very well running, clean and nuclear generator that was providing a lot of support to the grid. We don't have that anymore because Cuomo let it go. The liberals demanded it. Mark Ruffal was like, no, we only want renewables. And now you have everybody in New York suffering possibly if they do this. Except for I bet Taylor Swift doesn't have to suffer.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That was going to be my next question to Jesse. Taylor Swift's wedding is at Madison Square Garden on July 3. Why didn't Mamdani grow a pair and say, this is also for Taylor Swift? I would like to see your entire wedding be at 78 degrees.

[Jesse Watters]

Well, I hope he doesn't do that because I'm going to the wedding.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Really?

[Jesse Watters]

Yeah, I got an invite. That's good friends with the Kelsey's.

[Dana Perino]

Nice.

[Jesse Watters]

It's not true. I'll be here baking a thousand degree heat. You know what they say, Greg? First they tell you how cold to keep your room, and then they can tell you how much sex you can have.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I didn't see that leak.

[Jesse Watters]

It's a slippery slope.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes.

[Jesse Watters]

They're Gonna say one child policy next. This is how communism starts. They start rationing things. But you're right. They attacked the power plants, they attacked the pipelines. And now, like a good Communist, he wants everybody to suffer together, because that's what communism is. Suffering as one.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Except that.

[Jesse Watters]

And then there's that 1% that doesn't suffer. They just tell everybody else how much they have to suffer. I won't stand for it. Jessica, I'm cranking mine to 69.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, your favorite number. Jessica, why doesn't he provide proof that he's doing it by having a little camera on his thermostat? Because I want to see him sweltering in his office. Because we. By the way, we know he's not. We know he's full of crap, but he should go first.

[Joey Jones]

I am all for the GoPro and Gracie Mansion, so we can see what's going on down in City hall, too. But I assume that you want to broaden this segment to also criticize Greg Abbott. And like Brandon Gill, the Texas congressman who comes out and he wants to dunk on Mom. Donnie say, oh, you big socialist mess or communist mess, whatever. And Texas Advisory, when it gets hot, the Public Utility Commission of Texas and the Department of Energy recommends thermostats to be set to 78 degrees. Greg Abbott says, could you conserve some energy? And they've had problems with our grid. Remember, Ted Cruz takes off for Cancun when the grid goes down. So this is just good policy. In fact, and I'm pretty jealous, I would take 78 degrees right now over this 103 or 150 or whatever is going on. So I don't know, check what's going on in your own state before you go after someone else, because someone is going to bring it up on television. I'm done now.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Well, number. If Brian Kemp says it has to be 78 degrees, I will never vote for you again. I don't care who you are.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I wouldn't listen to them. The one thing

[Jessica Tarlov]

Georgia and Texas doesn't have is 8 million people from all over the world living on top of each other. And there's just a lot of different, like, ideas and kind of on, like, what kind of deodorant you wear or don't wear. There's just a lot of little smells in that city. And I don't think you should cook those smells and push them up and, like, say, hey, you get in the Uber and it's like, I need a gas mask. You know, I'm just saying, like, you Know, if you're going to do this, then also mandate speed stick. You know, probably the tropical kind. That way, no matter who I'm around, I don't need to smell whatever it is that, you know is. Is coming out at 78 degrees or higher.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I think the flavor. The point isn't who else is saying it. It's the people who say it who don't do it. And that is the left who. They've invented the luxury belief. Defund the police. But I have my security.

[Dana Perino]

That's why I brought up the EU thing. It's like if you're the lower class as you're below stairs.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah. You guys do this. Yeah.

[Dana Perino]

You do that. While we.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I've got important work to do.

[Dana Perino]

Yes, because we're standing.

[Joey Jones]

You think Greg Abbott is sitting around in an 80 degree house?

[Dana Perino]

I don't think anybody in Texas is paying attention to any of that. And I think that they're. You've been in a Texas restaurant. It's freezing in July.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah. All right, enough of that. Up next, how AI is punking travelers.

[Jesse Watters]

There is somewhere, someplace in the world I want to take you. Look out, look out, look out. A little more.

[Greg Gutfeld]

And we're live on Matchday as Doug reaches for a buffalo wing. He's got it. Oh, and he's gone for a can of Pepsi, too. What a finish. There's no doubt about it. It just tastes better. Match days deserve Pepsi. To be an American, but at least I know I'm free.

[Joey Jones]

Before you book that summer dream vacation, you got to look twice. A new Survey found only 5% of travelers could tell real destination photos from AI fakes, even though 74% say they won't book a trip without seeing the pictures first. Dana, this is a worry of mine. In life, it is in general. For AI fakes, I would go to the website.

[Jesse Watters]

She is kind of gullible.

[Dana Perino]

Well, here's the thing. This is a summer story. I was looking at it. My worries are not about, like, AI fake photos of a great vacation destination. Unless you're. I mean, if you're booking someplace you've never been, you never heard of, and you can't do any other research. Okay, I get that. I live in fear that I'm going to be the one who's anchoring a show that has a deep fake that causes, like, a war. That's my biggest concern. I'm not so concerned with travel photos.

[Joey Jones]

Jesse. You're never afraid to say whatever when you're on air. So how do you think about AI?

[Jesse Watters]

You Think Trump's that trigger happy? He's just going to hear you talk on Fox and just, bombs away.

[Dana Perino]

Somebody else.

[Jesse Watters]

Okay, what was the question? Listen, I saw something on a website one time and I was like, I'm going there. Looked like Paradise. Booked me a trip to the projects. Jessica. I got there and everyone hated me. Started throwing rocks and just turned everything around. No, you're gullible. Everyone at this table is gullible. If you have street. So arts like me, born and raised in the mean streets of Philly. You understand? By the way, we're getting LeBron James. Did you hear about that?

[Greg Gutfeld]

Really?

[Jesse Watters]

Philly Is getting LeBron James? I just became a LeBron fan.

[Jessica Tarlov]

The basketball team is getting him.

[Joey Jones]

Yeah.

[Jesse Watters]

Yes, the Sixers. What's wrong with you, Joey? Probably not a basketball fan.

[Jessica Tarlov]

I just feel like he's kind of on his way out of playing one

[Joey Jones]

more year, but maybe one more championship.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Listen, the whole vacation thing about, like, getting deep faked on your vacation. You can't make Pigeon Forest, Tennessee look better. There's no way to make Myrtle beach look better than it already does. I'm not getting faked on any of this, but I get it. It's like when I post a picture of me in Pence, everybody thinks I can go run a marathon. You know, I understand. I get it. But as far as the deep fake the AI thing goes, I mean, this is just the tip of the spear, right? It's everything. I mean, you know, you go on Spotify and, like, three of the top five songs are AI country singers. I mean, I can't stand it. Nothing's real anymore. I mean, you know, I might walk off this stage and, you know, go out there and none of those people are real. They're just AI. They're just there. In my head.

[Jesse Watters]

I kind of wish this was AI and we were back in New York.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah.

[Joey Jones]

Or not.

[Jessica Tarlov]

But the other thing is, it's not really hot. We're just. It's in the simulation.

[Dana Perino]

Yeah, just tell yourself it's not hot, Greg.

[Joey Jones]

Is it not actually hot?

[Greg Gutfeld]

Well, this topic, fake travel photos, is rich coming from people wearing hair and makeup. I mean, if you've ever seen Dana without her hair and makeup, it's absolutely atrocious. It's terrifying how hideous Dana Perino is without her hair and makeup. You would not recognize her. Have you ever heard of airbrushing? Every single Playboy model since the 1950s was airbrushed. I was an editor of Girly Mags Stuff. And, Max, when you saw the unretouched photos, you would go celibate. I am more upset by the real photos of resorts destinations that show them as clean and all the guests there are beautiful. Then you get there and it's like a Home Depot parking lot full of tattooed divorcees and board shorts. That's bothers me.

[Jesse Watters]

Where have you been on vacation?

[Jessica Tarlov]

Gr.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That's a good point. I haven't gone away in a long time. Except for that treatment facility.

[Jesse Watters]

Did they get it off?

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, they did. And then they put it back on.

[Joey Jones]

One More Thing's up now.

[Jesse Watters]

Gross.

[Joey Jones]

Mid July, when you and I were

[Greg Gutfeld]

forever wide crazy days.

[Dana Perino]

Before we get to One More Thing, we've got a jam packed lineup tonight for America. 250, including special report Jesse Watters, Primetime and Gutfeld. All from the Great American State Fair here in Washington dc. Don't miss that. And it's time now for One More Thing. Greg, go first.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Oh, okay. Tonight, like Dana said, we had a great show. Tim, Tyrus, Loftus and Joey Joe, let's do this. Greg's Sexy Armadillo News. Roll it, Sven. Yeah, nothing like an armadillo getting out of his shell. Cooling off in a hot tub of water at the Memphis Zoo where it gets hot and heavy. Dana, you know this.

[Dana Perino]

Ooh, he's so ugly.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Can roll up into a little ball. And what you do next is entirely up to you. But remember, with an armadillo, no meat. So when he rolls up, don't try to unroll him. You know that he gulps air into his intestines so he can float. Dana.

[Jessica Tarlov]

I do too.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Just like Steve Doocy.

[Dana Perino]

It's quite a skill. It is quite a skill. Jesse, you're next.

[Jesse Watters]

All right. Well, in case you're wondering what's around my neck, it's supposed to be a fan. Johnny handed it to me. It does not blow air.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Wow.

[Jesse Watters]

It's just vibrating. I don't think Johnny understands what this thing is. Gross.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Jesse, what's it like actually seeing a fan?

[Jesse Watters]

Very funny. Tonight, Jesse Waters Primetime, where all my fans will be watching Caroline Levitt, judge Jeanine Pirro. Who's that? Johnny Bellisario.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Oh, God.

[Jesse Watters]

Why are you plugging in?

[Dana Perino]

Let's look at this. You know the England fans are still here. And they didn't go to a soccer match last night. They went to the Braves game.

[Jessica Tarlov]

There we go.

[Dana Perino]

And they traded soccer for baseball there in Atlanta. And they adopted Brave center fielder Michael Harris as their newest hero. And they serenaded him. Homegrown talent walking in a Harris wonderland. He even threw them the ball, which was pretty fun. Jessica.

[Joey Jones]

All right. Small horses, big adventure. Two runaway miniature horses. Super cute. Briefly turned to Memphis suburb into the Wild West. Trotting through neighborhood streets. After a short chase, the police spent several minutes wrangling the tiny escape artists. They were safely reunited with their owner, bringing the neighborhood's unexpected rodeo to an end.

[Dana Perino]

Great American stuff.

[Jessica Tarlov]

You can ride those.

[Greg Gutfeld]

They are riding, so I've tried.

[Dana Perino]

Joey, you're next.

[Jessica Tarlov]

Yeah, listen, this is really cool. So if you don't know what this is. The Thunderbirds did a flyover. The US Air Force Thunderbirds did a flyover over the Hoover Dam where they had a big 45,000 square foot American flag. Looks awesome. They were on their way to the Strait of Hormuz. We're waiting for more details. I'm kidding.

[Dana Perino]

Ah, well, that would have been breaking news and we would have made you stay here for the next several hours. Instead, we will all watch your shows. Yes, and your show. You'll get home and Joey make a lot of jokes when you get on Gut Bell. That's it for us, everyone. Have a great night.
