JESSICA TARLOV (CO-HOST): Jesse, your thoughts or if you want to tell everyone how the fact check on me and Judy Blume is going.

JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): One persnickety mother in a county in Florida --

TARLOV: Who was powerful enough that she got the county to ban it!

WATTERS: Got one single Judy Blume book banned from a library --

GREG GUTFELD (CO-HOST): From a library.

WATTERS: And all you care about is that. You didn't say anything when the President of the United States was censored, or when millions of Americans were censored over the lab leak or the laptop or masks or Judy Blume. What about a million of Americans banned from using their First Amendment rights?

GUTFELD: Yes!

WATTERS: Where were you then?

GUTFELD: In your face, Jessica!

TARLOV: Okay. It's so good to have you back.
