not based on size, he said that today but he testified that doing so is not political theater, plus we have new information how to unchain u.s. taxpayers spent more money to the wuhan lab in china and dr. fauci agency admitted it is impossible to account for how china spends the money, also the new backlash growing again against new york governor andrew cuomo, this time cuomo accused p of profiting off of the pandemic with bigger than real life book deals more than $5 million in cuomo again mocking the sexual harassment law that he signed as ten women accuse governor cuomo of sexual harassment, tonight the head of the powerful teachers union randi weingarten tries to blame the cdc for the cdc using the union ring wage of school reopening the use of language verbatim, we have new sound from angry parents today

bombarding randi weingarten for failing children are much more, new reports on a mexican drug cartel are capitalizing president biden border crisis, thank you for joining as i am elizabeth macdonald "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪. elizabeth: you're watching the fox business network, we begin with texas congressman senate finance hearing today, good to see you, thank you so much for joining us. we have gop senators meeting with biden officials now is this president biden's read my lips moment, economists a he's going to have to tax the middle class to pay for the two and a quarter trillion dollars spent democrats lose in the midterms, what do you say about this. >> you're absolutely right the meetings are just for show we see this before any big spin entered spending package that

them biden administration pushes they say this is bipartisan they realize they don't have their votes they push it to d the houe and the senate makes a decision to continue this m partisan bil, that's what we suspect will happen, there's no way thend president can passes without raising taxes on the middle class, he knows that but these meetings are for show will get this to the house and have very little debate, no committee action after nancy pelosi -controlled house and will see this inon'l the senate in the se place that it is now,nd it's too big more spending and we can only afford it. elizabeth: were hearing that the democrat plan to take on a republican smaller bill we don't know photo be 560 billion, get that past into a bigger spend on things like paid family leave, progressive left they want 7 trillion total and spending, that is more than president biden combined in the prior spending bills, what do you say to the 7 trillion.

>> is absolutely crazy, even the biden administration officials are finding and hate to admit that inflation is going up all this money that is hitting the economy is causing prices to rise, everything is happening at once and it's a very bad time for the administration they gas problem with a pipeline on the east coast has blown up along with the border crisis and the democrats are realizing they will not be republican buy-in nota spending bill that is necessary the economy was recovering before this last one by the time this gets through the house into the senate we should be in a better place with respect to getting jobs back and getting people back to work mask mandates are coming down around the country even in d.c., we are seeing life come back to normal, that's why we don't need more spending that the economy do its job. elizabeth: we want to ask you this, how are they going to pay for republicans are talking about new user fees on deeply used electric cars because they don't pay into the federal highway trust fund democrats

want taxes on the upper bracket and corporate taxes to go up and talk about bringing back americans by america bonds republicans don't like it is subsidizing state spending and they want more money for irs and enforcement, which of these will pass. >> the truth is probably all of them but the one that they're not talking about his attacks on everyone, there is no way that you can pass the large spending packages without taxing anyone and i thinkus every item you mentioned is possible to wind up in the final deal and some are stuffed in the middle. elizabeth: what about higher gas taxes. >> absolutely. elizabeth: that the tax on the middle plan. >> that's exactly right they say they'll not. raise them middle-class but it is if they mgo that route. elizabeth: you made news, it's good to see you, thank you for joining us joining us now fox news contributor jason chaffetz, the president today on the green

new infrastructure deal, let's listen to this, i want to reaction to the soundbite, the president falsely claimed they worked in coal mines, president biden admitted in 2004, that was not true, watch this. >> my dad used to say i swear to god when he left scranton he was a salesperson not a a coalminery great grandpa was. >> everybody tells you this don't take any chances because the truth of the matter i gotk myself in trouble and how i may be present if it weren't for the fact my uncle is a coalminer, it turns out they didn't know anybody the coal mines. >> what do you think of this. >> there's been a lot of questions about the ability of the president claiming that he is a relative coal mine in 2004 that's not true,

which one are we to believe, but i don't find many people to believe what he actually says. elizabeth: what do you think of the infrastructure bill moving forward, how do you think it's going to shake out, what do you think? >> that is a deep concern that last time we did this, president obama passed the 787 billion-dollar infrastructure package, the problem was less than 5% went to roads, bridges and highways and you're looking at the same thing, supposedly the progressives want aywa bit from 4 trillion to 7 trillion and they forget we spend in excess of $4 trillion a year plus all the other stimulus out there, used to be a billion dollars is a big deal in washington, d.c. but if you don't see trillions you don't have credibility, the problem is the flood ofod money going to grow government and regulations and regulators but it's not going to stimulate the economy, it'ss going to hurt the

lower because you cannot rapid inflation, you cannot even by wood to the house at this point. elizabeth: looks like republicans in congress are going along with it what is that about at the state level, all gop led states, all 21 states all with republican governors plan to stop the 300 jobless benefits saying it does incentivize his workers to get a job but at the federal level the republicans are going along with it, what do you say? >> the concern washington, d.c. is handing out money, there is a temptation to always take it, when a state or government takes that money they have to play by the federal rules, even though they take federal dollars to build a highway in their state then you suddenly have to play the davis-bacon rules and have the environmental impact study, it cost more to build the roads

and live by all the federal standards, be aware, they are growing government they are not building roads in the basic infrastructure if you ask people in one sentence, and you want infrastructure, people say yes but it's not that simple. elizabeth: the growing government with the big spend, we have more than 8 million, 4 million job openings and job applications plummeting 13% year-over-year texas governor greg abbott says texas job openings are almost equal to the number getting jobless benefits, construction and restaurant jobs nearly 60% more jobs openas in texas and before the pandemic hit, it still federal activity, but then you see what's happening at the state level, your final word on that? >> utah has the lowest unemployment rate in the nation at less than 3%. we need people doing jobs, we

don't need more welfare going out the door and lots of states would benefit by cutting that off i'm glad to see the republicans taken the lead on that, there are some people that need a safety net but by and large it's time for people to get off the couch, get off there but and get back to work. elizabeth: jason chaffetz, we heard you loud and clear, come back soon. it's good to see you, let's get you updated on israel and looks like the president did have a heated intense exchange with rashida tlaib the progressive congresswoman not liking the president's policies of israel the president is calling for a cease-fire that is largely been ignored, trey yingst is in southern israel with more. >> today is the ninth day of fighting between israel and hamas as much-needed aid into gaza with the permission of the israelis, only some a doctor after the area was hit with mortars as trucks crossed fire

resumed after six hours of quiet one rocket this afternoon slamming into caravan at the regional council killing two people and injuring several others israeli airstrikes targeting gaza as a death toll mounts 214 palestinians have been killed so far and hundreds injured. >> all of our lives we had no idea where we want to go where to run, the hard work in the whole streets in the destruction, and earthquake. >> reports indicate addiction negotiators are trying a cease-fire but so far not much progress made this comes afterto last night six rockets fired towards israel towards lebanon palestinians getting involved in the fight. elizabeth: thank you so much, please stay safe. coming up ohio congressman u warren davidson is the guy behind fire found t-bill,

dr. fauci heatedly denied he approved the research in china to make frankenstein supervisor is more infectious but he's not telling you we will show you how ten years ago dr. fauci supported generating potentially de jure enter dangerous viruses that laboratories creating them in order to get vaccines made, the story next. >> more money, i just got a letter from the u.s. aid i wrote to them asking how much money they sent it was $1.1 million i got that information this week, we are just gathering information. ♪

i don't see the band of function research. that is not correct. elizabeth: that was dr. fauci denying that he approved gain oe function research in china, this was the relating viruses to make them more infectious but what dr. fauci is not saying is not telling you ten years ago dr. fauci co-authored a washington post opinion piece in 2011 that calls for creating a laboratory virus that does not exist in nature and generating a potentially dangerous virus in the laboratory to investigate more m vaccines made let's welce to the show ohio congressman he's a member of house financial services, mara davidson, were continuing to see more information surfacing, what is your reaction to this. >> dr. fauci lost credibility to say that was an equivocation we will see where it goes but clearly he supported it, there might be technical difference in terms of when and how specifically gain of function

was funded but dr. fauci has been in his role since 1984 which is a fitting reference to the crazy stuff that he's advocated, he's been on all sides of virtually every issue and it's time for him to go, he needs to be fired. elizabeth: we hear what you're saying is tough words we understand where you're coming from, scientists have not discovered any viruses in nature that look like the so-called evolutionary intermediate, they have not found the intermediate viruses onto sars covid-19 they still can't find covid-19 corollaries in nature, nih did find a project in the wuhan bob thought she said it was meant to create super viruses more than a million bucks went to wuhan, the echo health alliance there's a

lot of details were not hearing from dr. fauci and testimony. >> is equivocation at best for possiblele theories that's what all the data looks like, everyone whose objective, unfortunately that does not include the world health organization, we have some systemic problems, frankly that is exactly what president eisenhower cautioned in his farewell address, everyone is aware of the complex he also against the scientific elite putting their own interest to have a national interest and i really fear that is what dr. fauci has done for this past year end prickly for a long career. elizabeth: dr. fauci supported creating in the lab super

viruses against vaccines, this is after the sars virus broke out in the early 2000, smallpox virus and sars has repeatedly broke out a rebel tories by accident, that is not going on in congressman i want to response to this, dr. fauci told the wall street journal that it is impossible to account for all of wuhan labs activities or how china spends u.s. money on this, he is lying in testimony but telling the media that we can account for how china spendsou u.s. dollars, what do you say to that. >> it sound like someone who doesn't want accountability and it's very possible classified programs that would go on that nobody would want to acknowledge to give the benefit of the doubt that is a possibility, i don't have personal information on that, you look at his role in how long he's been in that role, part of the reason i think he

deserves early dismissal is because of his lackra of preparation, he's put through all these things and to make a difference, the reason he made is unprepared, inconsistent and frankly in principle to the country, when you look atth his usexchange with senator paul, nt just this one but in an ongoing dialogue with senator paul, he has been wrong on everything that he said with senator paul and testimony senator paul put them to the test and every time he comes out d wrong, just like this week, the day before the cdc corrected him and went public saying if you been vaccinated you should act like it. elizabeth: he went on ata mornig talk show inset i'm wearing masks inside and the science doesn't require that but he i testified that is not political theater and he said at the beginning of the pandemic don't wear a mask and behind the scenes he was saying we want to

save masks to conserve on for hospital workers, he said you can't get herd immunity out of 5% but when the public perception changed he treated to 85% you see the shift in goalpost, your final work, where does this end up. >> is not a truthful person i don't know how you could have a doctor you don't trust. i think the american people need to talk to their own doctors and i think the american people need to get dr. fauci off the payroll. elizabeth: congressman warren davidson thank you for joining us, good to see you. up next lee zeldin is going to give us his take on governor andrew cuomo's $5.1 million book deal on his leadership in the pandemic, all that's happening as we've got a new backlash growing against governor cuomo for again mocking the legal definition of sexual harassment that he governor cuomo signed into law at least ten women accuse governor cuomo of sexual

us nowth: joining congressman lee zeldin, we are so happy to have you on, your take on governor andrew cuomong getting a 5.1 ilhan dollar book deal about his pandemic leadership, your thoughts? >> it's crazy over $5 million, that was in the middle of the effort to respond to the outbreak, i haven't personally pocketed a dollar, the andrew cuomo was making $5000 personally, that is $5000 too much and you should donated to charity, over $5 million, the book doesn't even do that well, it was built on a lie, he was in the middle, he was under investigation for so many different things related to his covid response, obviously the book isn't going to be transparent about providing in

the private residence done by state health department officials and the samples moved to the front of the line were obviously the deadly fatal nursing home order and cover-up and so much more which is the source of the investigation by multiple levels of government, i think that a lot of new yorkers are disgusted, they are frustrated, they want him gone more than ever. elizabeth: you call the blood money, profiting off the pandemic, the new york n city mayor bill de blasio causes book deal state-sponsored literature that this guy, cuomo, depended on state workers to do a lot of the work, you don't need ethics training to figure out that's not acceptable, your thoughts on that. >> this does not pass the smell test whatsoever. that point is well taken, it is blood money, people were suffering in the state, financially, emotionally, physically, businesses went out, loved ones were lost as a result

of these policies yet people lost inside of nursing homes, healthy seniors became infected and passed away as a result of the nursing home order, this is blood money and he should donate every last cent. elizabeth: we also have this governor andrew cuomo joked about having an intimate relationship with the state health director howard zucker this happened at a press conference, he is mocking the legal definition of sexual harassment that governor cuomo signed off on two years ago, ten women are accusing mo sexual harassment he says is thef legal definition of harassment that is very clear all it says making someone uncomfortable does not mean that. lawyers and experts say yes itth does, it says just that, he turned to state health commissioner zucker and said we have an intimate relationship, do i make you uncomfortable with that question. so why is he mocking it.

>> each and i believe he should resign specifically solely on the deadly nursing home cover-up, now he has all these accusations that followed and you have women who came forward and they have obligations, that is being investigated by multiple levels, that is not anything to joke n around about and nothing to minimize. this governor, if he was the attorney general would be leading the charge to remove to go after the governor. if andrew cuomo the attorney general was faced with the fact pattern of someone else serving as a governor no one be allowed then andrew cuomo, he will go after the accuser and i simply believe the accuser, he has nothing to apologize for, he has nothing to showhe remorse for andy's change in the definition of what harassment is and really everyone is seen andrew cuomo for his true colors, unfortunately this is not just andrew cuomo from the last year

this is andrew cuomo going back to his times as governor in the same andrew cuomo when his father was a governor. elizabeth: congressman selden, thank you forni joining us, come back soon, it's good to see you. were coming out of the bottom of the hour you want too the fox business at network. former acting dni ricker now weighs on the teachers union randi weingarten blaming the cdc for using the union's own language verbatim about reopening schools, claiming the cdc still asks us for that language, not the other way around we have angry parents getting their say, bombarding randi weingarten for bailing children and more, that story next. >> i think the cdc is in trouble because they're being asked a very serious question and you go back to the campaign president biden said he was going to follow the science and here you had science saying most schools could reopen, the scientist were saying all school should be open

and they were getting ready to come out without and all of a sudden the teachers union said we don't want to have to go back to the classroom and let students back in so you saw them change it they change a basic metrics of science that will be used. ♪ obsession has many names, this is ours. the lexus is. all in on the sports sedan. lease the 2021 is 300 for $369 a month for 36 months. experience amazing, at your lexus dealer. it's not some magical number. and it's not something we just achieve at the end. it's a feeling... of freedom to live our lives the way we intended. though the ups...

elizabeth: look who's back former acting director national intelligence ric grenell, the teachers union randi weingarten, it's great to see you thank you so much for joining us, now she's saying it was the cdc who asked she's blaming the cdc for asking us her language to use the cdc guidance on school reopening not the other way around an e-mail showing the teachers union cdc why should the cdc care what the teachers union says when they claim to follow the science they're not supposed to beo following the teachers union.

>> they do this because it's a washington, d.c. way there out of touch with a regular people they just go to unions and this happens with municipal employees unions this happens with auto unions, auto workers unions and it's happening right now with the teachers unions unfortunately we watched over the last year plus time that zoom schools and all of the things that the teachers unions have told us none of this has been true they should've been at the forefront of opening up schools, imagine if we had teachers union bosses who were representing teachers who want to get back in the classroom i know a lot of teachers that have been dying to get back in the classroom they recognize there's a risk but they have been on the frontline and know the risk is really minimal for children and for kids, this is the shameful tactic that the media, the democrats and so many people are

pushing that somehow getting covid was a death sentence and you look at the numbers and it's not popular to say, you don't hear very often but 99%, even more than 99% of people who got covid did not die and you can have a whole bunch of people jump on me for saying your insensitive to those people that got sick and had trouble and eventually died and of course were not being insensitive to that but thehe question remains should we have shut down our schools in the economy when 99% of the people who got covid were fine were at least able to get over it with their current medical. i think it's really important

that we bifurcate teachers unions, the teachers have wanted to get back in and solve this problem if the teachers union bosses with political operative that the white house who is turning this into a moneymaking scheme. elizabeth: we hear you tens of billions of dollars are going to the teachers union, we have jen psaki smacking down the cdc director rochelle walensky when rochelle walensky said you don't need to be vaccinated if your teacher to teach in schools but then she got shot down by jen psaki saying that is her personal opinion, parents really went after randi weingarten, he took phone calls today on c-span, let's listen to what parents are saying on the phone calls, watch this. >> the union creates lazy and effective people and also creates children that have no education, it is pathetic of the teachers union and the government have failed our children, i don't see how you could sit up there and defend it. >> i'm from syracuse and out of

the last few years we had under a 40% graduation and a high immigration of non-english speaking students we have fired quite a few teachers to hire translators 38% graduation, that's pretty pathetic. >> the part i don't understand how come the parochial schools in a private school can navigate their way through the scenario but the public schools did not seem to be able to manage that. >> mr. weingarten i want to ask you why you think a pandemic is a reason to reimagine our education the basics would be nice, the public schools have failed these children on education basis let alone all the social reeducation. elizabeth: withering stuff, what do you say? >> it's really sad and that goes to the point that people see

what's going on they see the schools were shut down and the teachers did not want that in the union bosses turned it into something bigger, i think there's a point to be made in one of the commenters it is really not public schools, the public does not own the schools anymore, it is government schools and we need to be very clear about getting back the ownership of s our schools, we n those buildings, we should be able to use those buildings whenever we want because it's our tax dollars we should create competition, you should not have to go to the crappy school down the street because you cannot afford to go to another school let's create real competition and have every school compete in these government schools will find ways to deal with crises like the catholic schools, the christian schools in the private schools were able to do through this process. elizabeth: good stuff from ric grenell sound like you're running for governor of california, i am teasing you.

>> you and i have talked about that and looking at the long-term as t you know i really want to do education reform and have a long-term look at the reform not a short-term. elizabeth: got it, your terrific, come back soon up next kt mcfarland biden in the biden administration waving sanctions on the company building the north stream pipeline in germany that will help russia, this is we got pipeline being shut down here in theg u.s. like michigan gretchen whitmer orting out the pipeline to shut down during the gas shortage from a michigan newspaper calling governor witmer clueless, that story next. ♪

square this abided administration is getting criticized for helping russia building the nordstrom pipeline in germany, that helps russia rick perry former energy secretary saying this is a prudent crony the biden administration is helping but they are opposing pipelines here, can you score this? >> billions of dollars to have american forces in europe to defend against russia and at the same time we are not putting piddly little sanctions onin prudent cronies because what were doing were enabling europe critically germany .

elizabeth: we have the michigan newspaper the detroit news clueless for demanding more from a shotgun of the field pipeline admits cash shortages with the colonial pipeline ransom or attack, then you have the homeland security secretary mayorkas defending pipelines is critical for structure, jennifer granholm saying we need. the pipes to deliver the fuel, what do you say. >> is not blue smoking years nobody can see with quinn other canceling pipelines around making energy much more expensive in the united states, there making the united states a much bigger polluter because there pipelines carrying natural

gas, while at the same time there allowing the russians to become rich and economically powerful because of the pipelines there, at the end of the day i don't think it's about energy stuff, i really think the twitter world and the twitter chitter chatter became very excited as i thought that there was gas linesn in the northeast of the united states, they thought everybody will have top electric cars and we will be able to have fossile fuel cars, maybe that's the real objective make energy so expensive we can drive cars. elizabeth: we need natural gas to power the utilities the power the cars. go ahead. elizabeth: this feels so negative about america, final work, we got to go. >> i like it will be put america first, but get back to doing

elizabeth: joining us now former dhs acting deputy chief ofef stf lora ries, it's great to have you on we have reports coming in the mexican drug cartels are capitalizing on the border crisis flooding the border of the world's deadliest drug customer border seized more fentanyl in the first half of 2021 than they did in any of the three years prior, this seems like it's getting worse, what do you say. >> it is getting worse and the shocking numbers go hand-in-hand with the shocking numbers that we seen related to the border crisis in the number of people that are coming over the border, much of the focus has been on the steady stream of illegal aliens coming over the border but we cannot lose sight of the

poisonous drugs that are crossing the border in the biden administration policies are letting this continue to happen and these drugs spread allpe ovr the country, the highest amount of opioid overdoses are not along the border there in the midwest, northeast. elizabeth: so you have about no, the amount seized is double the amount that was seized in 2019 it looks as 6500 pounds seized s from october 2022 april it's really dangerous, it's multiple times more dangerous than heroin like 50 times more dangerous and i d think 1 kilogram can kill hf a million people i'm not sure if

people are aware how dangerous that knowledge is. >> it's a most lethal but we also can't forget about cocaine, meth and all these m types of drugs are all bad and increasing, the number that you cited were the ones that were seized we also don't know how many drugs are getting through without being seized but we know that tens of thousands of americans die every year due to drug overdose in the biden administration is not only continuing to pursue open border policies that allow illegal immigrants to come intoll the country but allowing all of these drugs to come in and how many americans lives need to be lost before they stop allowing this to happen and start securing the border. elizabeth: it is putting a lot on the border patrol importer

authority, what are your thoughts about the los angeles times reporting that mexico will open 17 migrant camps inside mexico to deal with the humanitarian emergency that mexico blames on president biden and his administration, what do you say to that. >> i have to ask the question is this like the remaining mexico t program that the trump administration had in place and the point was if people are going to apply for asylum then oithey can apply but to have thm wait on the mexican side of the border while their cases pending because if we let them into the u.s. as the biden administration is doing we return to a catch and release posture and nothing is more effective for marketing purposes for alien smugglers then announcing that the biden administration is releasing people into the u.s. to disappear and possibly never apply for asylum in court in the

biden administration is not supporting these people either. elizabeth: what were your thoughts when he saw the new yorkhe times people from 160 countries around 1 the world hae been trying to cross. >> it is shocking so much of the focus has been on mexico and the northern triangle countries in central america but the entire world is taken advantage of the policies abided administration and their coming for economic reasons. when the biden administration to open processing centers at the border it is just charlie more and illegal aliens for border and it encourages fraudulent applications for asylum the world is watching and the cartels are being enriched both with smuggling people and what drugs they are making $20 million a day and americans are suffering, this is a health risk for americans and a

security risk as well. elizabeth: under federal law you cannot apply for economic reasons what you get a job has to be religious and political persecution, thank you for joining us we appreciate you coming in, come back soon. i'm elizabeth macdonald, you been watching "the evening edit", that does it for asked we hope you have a good evening and join us again tomorroww night. ♪ night. ♪. larry: hello everyone welcome back to come though i am larry kudlow, president biden out on the stump today, take a listen to what he said. >> a job is about a lot more than a paycheck it is about your dignity it is about respect, it's about your place in the community, i really mean this to look your kid in the eye and say honey is going to be okay. larry: i agree with president biden about the
