they confused me with pete it's because we're so handsome, right , pete? pete: it's true. ainsley: these chapters crack me up. you say journalism, you saved primetime, the internet you saved d.c. nightlife, nude beaches and christmas. >> ainsley, a lot of people don't know this but i'm a veteran in the war on christmas, very much like pete. i have the battle scars to prove it, and we went behind the scene s and found all of these schools that had banned candy canes and they had put up in great barrington a bunch of christmas lights and they had to be removed because it was contributing to global warming so these are stories about how i went and fought the war on christmas, fought the war on women, obviously on the side of women, ainsley, and we talk about what that was like. brian: all right let's see if you can save schools. do you know about this expensive school right here in manhattan that everyone wants to get their kid into until recently. well here is a little clip that something has aired on showtime. it's satire that was shown to all of the parents and kids, shown

ainsley: pete don't eat it. pete: i can't do that. jillian: i'm going to say something not a popular opinion. i'm not impressed by new york pizza. ainsley: really? jillian: i'll leave now. brian: you have no mic, why are you talking so much? >> i like it when it's a thin crust and real cheese and then when you fold it up, right? the oil is just dripping down. jillian: i like it super crispy. ainsley: really. brian: move over. >> [laughter] jillian: we should get his opinion, dave portnoy. brian: that be great, we think new york pizza remains the best. ainsley: we don't. jillian: i love domino's and papa john's. brian: this is the one who wants a sponsor. pete: pizza hut, pizza. ainsley: thin crust? i like the bread that's why i like the thick. brian: i don't feel comfortable telling my personal taste on television. >> [laughter] pete: pizza hut pizza, number one. brian: still ahead, former president trump doing 10 points better with latino voters in 2020 compared to 2016 but don't worry this is how hhsmsnbc explains it away. >> there

pete: okay. brian: but i would say this , i think that they wanted to blame it on lack of summer jobs. people don't shoot for recreation or because they're board. crime is because there's a lack of law enforcement, there's fewer cops, there's fewer people backing cops, and it's the only way that there's communication from city to city to city that if you're on your own. ainsley: i think it's division too, when president biden was elected he kept saying i'm going to unify and bring republicans and democrats together, people of all races together, so much fighting right now in our country. we saw that with the rioting people are mad, people have had, you know, dealt with covid and then we're seeing defund the police. now we don't have cops that want to do their jobs because they are too scared they get sued or do something wrong and it's going to be a huge news story and they will lose everything, so i think it's all of that combined. pete: we're seeing defund the police movement with jen psaki hav

pete: yeah. he said they want to start from what they call a clean slate which is -- he mentioned edmund burke with, and he's right. it's a complete rejection of the conservative view which is you learn from the wisdom of the ages and the sins of the past, and you know that man is not perfectible through any ideological strand. by the grace of god, we're able to contain our worst impulses but never, and certainly not government, and that's what our founders understood. rachel: we had a guest on last week and we have them on my podcast with sean, he's dean chang, and he talks with us about the similarities between the chinese cultural revolution and what we're seeing here. and it is so strikingly similar. the sessions we saw last summer in baltimore were semito the struggle sessions that we -- similar to the struggle sessions that we saw, the almost of it minus some of the violence. although some of the violence is there as well. anyway, i think it's very interesting to see those comparisons, and

"fox & friends weekend" co-host pete hegseth also loves roller skating. pete, you know. pete: i do. steve: obviously we have been watching the images from portland for a year. it's a mess there buff now he is realizing, wait, nobody is coming to visit. we have got to pretend things are just fine even though last week downtown an 18-year-old woman was shot and a bunch of other people as well. it's not safe there. pete: yeah. we have a gang violence problem. a homeless problem. a drug problem. we have got the businesses that were shut down during covid-19. we have got all these problems, none of which have been addressed this ted wheeler, he is taking the michael scott approach from the office. you know, morale is at an all-time low. no, we have not fixed the processes by which your leadership addresses whether or not the office runs properly. we are going to throw a huge party. if we throw a huge party, then everyone will feel better about their terrible lot in life sitting in the corner of the office not being productive. we just threw a big roller skating party in portland. everyon

and you can see how much it meant to pete alonzo to run. by the way, shohei ohtani competed in the home run derby even though he was knocked out in the first round. he seemed in so many ways to compel the crowd even though he didn't advance. a great event. ainsley: what do we expect from the national league tonight? >> you know, i think as you take a look at how competitive this game has been over the years, you can make the case, ainsley, that this is the most authentic of the all-star games in terms of its competitive spirit. when you look at its history and the way some of these games have played out and how dramatic they've been coming down to the wire, that's what we can only hope for in terms of the national league versus american league battle. but the fact that there's all of this altitude here and we're going to see just how many long balls it produces, just how much scoring happens in a game where there is actual defense played in an all-star setting, i think that's what sets this game apart. steve: it's almost like playing on the

pete: now that covid-19 after contact with those democrats has reached the white house, what is your message to these texas democrats? >> our message continues to be thanks for standing up for voting rights and the rights of americans to have their voices heard at the voting booth and we appreciate their efforts in that regard. brian: and thanks for giving everyone covid-19. did that come out at all? steve: and she also revealed for the first time that other white house staffers have tested positively for covid at the white house. they were supposed to tell the press when it happened. she admitted to it yesterday. apparently. brian: transparent most transparent administration ever. how did that happen? steve: apparently the super spreader event where the white house person and speaker's office person were infected was at a reception with the texas delegation on the roof of a hotel in washington, d.c. brian: can i justed a this? remember that president biden keeps telling everyone, everyone that gets this virus it's because we are getting this virus because this is a virus, a variant

brian: i was thinking of pete, my fault. ainsley: and he has free food. steve: can't beat that check in with you. ainsley: at least two texas democratic lawmakers have returned home after more than a week on capitol hill. some members of the caucus say that they were blind sided by this move. steve: griff jenkins joins us live from washington with reaction from both sides of the aisle. griff, it has been a disaster since so many tested positively now they are scrambling back to austin where, i presume, they will get arrested, right? griff: well, steve, i think it's fair to say it didn't go just as planned. they came to washington to fight a republican backed voting bill back in austin. now the house g.o.p. needs seven more of the 55 runaways to come home so the legislature can resume session. representative philip cortez being the latest democrat to return. now, he tweeted his decision saying, a small working group of democrats decided to begin active discussions in austin on improving house bill 3 and asked that i return to establish open communication l
