sunday. it s an open air north turn down there in florida live at 6:00. and can you tell that the weather is perfect. why are we up actually in new york city where it s 60 degrees. only 70 something down there why can tell we just don t have the rcars. i postulated that all three weekend anchors would be in racing suits. a unitard today. just to get into the theme of their weekend coverage. i bet you $100 that is not going to happen. guess what? i wore mine. it s a one-piece. brian: you should cover it? is it fire retardant? ainsley: we are not going to try that out. let s not test it. steve: thank you very much for joining us on a friday. kind of a long week. nonetheless, will and racism are having breakfast with friends along of the big race this weekend. how did you get some people in there so early? must be the coffee? rachel: it s the coffee but florida just loves fox news. steve: yes, they do. rachel: true fans of our network. we are excited bass we we
us? where is everyone? why is dewine not doing his job? why is fema not here? why aren t we getting any answers when we were supposed to get answers? steve: she makes a good point why is fema not there. in fact, yesterday, representative bill johnson who is a republican from ohio asked the governor to request disaster declaration so they could free up federal money. the governor s office says fema halls found that the area did not qualify because the railroad was paying for some residential expenses and because of the lack of damage to personal property. she wonders why fema is not there. she has got a good point. but, you know, i don t know that that particular reason is going to, you know, cut the mustard with a lot of people who, as you look at that water. look at the colors in that water. does that look safe? and ultimately, that leeches into the river which is the source of water in that area. can congress change those rules?
and he has been watching i can t imagine what could possibly happen to those people. what about down the road? that s the worry of a cancer cluster 5, 10, 15 years from now. ainsley: very scary. one woman said what about pregnant women? what will happen if they are born i hope they are healthy and okay. the lady that has to walk to the grocery store to get the water. doesn t have the budget. here she is courtney miller. i m a single mother. i have two children and i don t have a vehicle currently. so i have to walk to the and carry a case of water and tote around a 9-year-old and a 5-year-old walking to and from a store to get bottled water. where is our help and what about the people who can t walk to the store who don t have vehicles? why is no one out here helping
here in this town of 5,000 eastern ohio along the border with pennsylvania two weeks after massive train derailment. residents are still unsure if it s safe to drink the tap water. how has this chemical contamination impacted your life. it s been absolutely terrible. it s uprooted me and my six children. it s making me move out of my house. people don t know if we re safe to drink the water. they are saying yes but then we have fish kills everywhere. i have a well so i worry in six months, you know, if it happened to my water. i don t know where the birds all went, but we don t see any birds in our place. do you feel safe? no, i don t. no, i don t feel safe. i think i would be a fool to say that i felt safe right now. president biden s transportation secretary has not come here to east palestine and appeared to down play this derailment. while this horrible situation has gotten particularly high amount of attention, there are
leaking into our ground water? and he says oh, we are evaluating. so i wouldn t recommend children or people play in the creeks. so don t play in the creeks. it is winter. i don t know how much creek-play is going on. it s a good point. you saw what it looks like. also, you just j.d. vance was asked would you drink the water? he said no, i would have bottled water. the testing says we should be able they should be able to drink the water. troy nehls a texas republican suggested that j.d. vance was irresponsible for advising residents of east palestine to drink the water. is he being practical as a parent and senator. i don t feel good about it. i don t want to find out five years from now there is something in it. i just watched this other woman on that says i m poor. i ve got two kids 7 and 9 years old. i have got walk and get my own bottled water. i don t have a budget for bottled water. now i have to go walk because i don t have a car and come back with it. and one of the risks
