contributor jason chaffetz. robbie suave of "reason" magazine, michael burgess, brand done arnold from the national taxes payers union. greg stuebe, joe concha and former dha official mike howl. we have a lot of news coming in, the president's former covid advisor americans should have sacrificed, given up even more during the pandemic. this after 22 million lost their jobs, entire businesses were forced to shut down. but pundits like him kept collecting their paychecks a growing number of scientists, saying no, yes it is possible that covid-19 did leak from the wuhan lab. comedian jon stewart thinks that too. media, democrats dismissing all of that in order to keep attacks on trump going, when trump talked about all of this last year. a u.s. government report showing that they knew the u.s. government did know that china's military was funding that wuhan

lab. also we've got the big loophole that could have weakened government oversight. a new report says that democrats will try to use that illegal irs leak of billionaire tax returns to raise taxes but republican senator senator mitch mcconnell today demanding criminal charges, warning that leak was orchestrated to push the democrats tax hike agenda. this news coming in, a top official at facebook admitting yes, its fact-checkers are politically biased after facebook is accused censoring trump, conservatives and much more. plus you will hear from that north korean defector to the u.s. slamming quote, woke u.s. universities for intolerance, censorship and group think. she says even north korea is not this nuts. legal eagles warning that the biden administration will sue texas to try to block texas from

building its own border wall. this constitutional battle royale now getting hotter. i'm elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪. elizabeth: welcome to the show. you're watching the fox business network. stocks finishing down. the dow, s&p, nasdaq all falling. consumers spent far less than expected on retail goods in may. producer prices and inflation soaring to the highest level in years. wall street pro paul tudor jones sees a green light to bet heavily on every inflation trade. jones is credited with calling the 1987 stock market crash. start with fox news contributor jason chaffetz. that ppi read is not good. inflation coming in hotter. republicans led by kevin mccarthy, we'll try to take back the house because democrat policies are triggering inflation. he says this is a direct tax on
6:04 pm
americans. do you think that is enough to win back the house? >> i hope so because it is one of the cruelest taxes can be bestrode upon the american people, particularly people with fixed incomes, lower incomes. obviously high income people will absorb it but it is happening. it is, it is not necessary. these things are happening but it is the policies of the biden-harris administration is doing this. it is totally avoidable. it is painful. elizabeth: now we've got senator chuck schumer. he will try to ram through, word coming in, president biden's multitrillion dollar infrastructure plan this announcement is expected to come tomorrow. they will do it, try to do it with just democrat votes, via budget reconciliation. you and i talked about. this we said this was coming a couple months ago. senator joe manchin appears open to this line of attack. what do you think of this move? >> well, first of all, it is generous to say it is
6:05 pm
infrastructure when less than 10% of it is roads, bridges and highways. this is growing government. this is growing government and it is growing government. that is what they did back in 2009 with their 787 billion-dollar package. remember joe biden's budget if you look back 10 years is 50% bigger. so when you're putting nearly 25% of our gross domestic product into government, one out of every four dollars spent by the government, again it exacerbates inflation. it is the insatiable desire of the democrats to control more, have more, spend more, and tax more and i think they are going to do it despite the promise of joe biden and democrats to work in a bipartisan way. there was an ernest effort. it was not heeded to and i just think they will blow through and do it because they want all things government. elizabeth: you know, we've got this new poll of staffers on capitol hill by congressional quarterly and "roll call." capitol hill insiders say this
6:06 pm
will be the only thing that will get done before the fall, infrastructure. nothing else is going to pass. republicans are saying let life return to normal. that is the best fix. now americans are seeing food and gas prices going up after a wave of cyberattacks knocked out gas and food supplies. will this be one and done? >> i think so. there is no regular order with nancy pelosi and chuck schumer. they're not going through the normal bipartisan budget process. since 1974 it only worked one time. democrats don't even try to pretend to go through the process. consequently they don't get buy-in. it is their fault they're not reaching out to do things that both sides can work on. remember, let's also add the shut-down of accessing oil and gas in large part on public lands. when you get rid of the pipeline, you can't access the product, don't be surprised all of a sudden energy prices start to skyrocket.
6:07 pm
then you go over to putin and say go ahead and build yours and fuel europe that way through the nord stream 2 project. i mean i don't know what biden is doing but it is not america first, i can tell you that. elizabeth: why take that bargaining chip off the table about nord stream 2? why did he take that, why did president biden remove that bargaining chip off the table? >> it's a total mystery. why do you kiss up to russia, give them what they want before you even meet with vladmir putin? now president biden is going into this meeting. he doesn't have chips to play with. we've been under attack from russia, not necessarily the government but, those actors within russia but now he has no tools to, you know, bargaining chips to go through. look this is part of joe biden's background. he has been in washington d.c., for 50 years. he has no background in negotiation and it hurts our country. elizabeth: all right. jason chaffetz, thank you so
6:08 pm
much for joining us. we really appreciate it. let's bring in "reason" magazine associate editor, robbie suave. you have a lot to talk about with this upcoming story. andy slavitt, former covid-19 czar, he getting slammed on social media for telling cbs said americans needed to sacrifice more during the covid-19 pandemic? 22 million businesses shut down. what did you think of his comment. >> i think it is insulting for people that tried hard. we were told we would have to lock down, social distance for 14, 15 days. that stretched on well beyond a year. people lost their businesses. they suffered depression. they were not allowed to see family members, couldn't go to funerals, churches, vacations, anything. many people who run the society mayors, et cetera, got caught doing things citizens were not
6:09 pm
allowed to do. everyone tried their hardest for the most part. we couldn't have done more. in fact the fault was in government planners thinking this would make sense to do this forever. also giving bad advice all the time. remember when we were told the parks and beaches should be closed. now we know that was extremely safe activity. people could have been gathering socially if it was outside but the government told people not to do that. elizabeth: listen to andy slavitt. listen what he said. >> i also think we need to look at one another ask ourselves what do we need to do better next time? many respects being able to sacrifice a little bit for one another to get through this and save more lives, is going to be essential. that is something i think we all could have done a little bit better on. elizabeth: it is unclear what he is talking about. he could have been talking about doing more social distancing don't breathe on each other.
6:10 pm
he is getting a paycheck. he is in the pundit class. you can't ask blue collar workers to say locked down to work from their homes because they can't. weddings, funerals, were canceled. traffic volume in cities was cut in half. what more americans could have done? >> some people have to go to work. they don't have the privileges that the government class, some of us in the fun did, writing class. i can mostly work at home. i have that advantage but not everyone can do that. people went a year without hugging their loved ones, without seeing their grandparents. people did sacrifice. they made tremendous sacrifices to save lives. it wasn't enough. this was, because this was a deadly disease unleashed upon us, so people still died and that's terrible but you can't ask that much more from people. the whole tone of his, his book is called preventable. this whole idea if we the citizens only tried harder we could have had some tremendous reduction in death, i find that laughable, especially given
6:11 pm
everything wrong the government did telling us to scrub down the groceries, that early on they told us masks were not important. they slow rolled vaccine approval. the rapid tests were not even approved until december. remember when the fda screwed that up catastrophically? i see a lot of government failure. a lot of tremendous effort on the part of the common man to overcome this. you can only ask so much from people. we're not ought tom tons, we can't sit quietly in a cell for a year. it is wrong to ask that of people. elizabeth: rob birx thank you for coming on. good to see you. thank you for your insights. next up, growing scientists democrats and scientists who said no, but thousand it is possible that the covid leaked from the wuhan lab. comedian jon stewart believes that. congressman michael burgess is

♪. elizabeth: we've got some breaking news. former president donald trump just put out a statement saying he has accepted the governor of texas' invitation to come visit the border on june 30th. the former president is saying that the border has been quote, decimated due to president biden's policies. we'll get to that later in the show. now we've got this story, reports coming in that one of the 20 scientists that signed the letter in the lan set last year that dismissed the covid leaked from wuhan lab. he is backtracking, telling abc news that he believes that a leak was possible. joining us congressman michael burgess. scientists are backtracking, yeah, it could have leaked. remember peter daszak,
6:17 pm
eco-health alliance he funded the letter, and used to dismiss the lab leak theory throughout the year and this year. what do you say to this? >> for people not familiar with the lancet, in the scientific community, the medical community, the word of "the lancet" is gospel. to have that letter produced when it was, certainly went a long way towards quelling any of the discussion. now to hear one of the signers of the letter is saying maybe not, not so fast, that's a big deal and of course many of us felt right from the start, none of this added up. none of this made any sense. i'm grateful today for dr. redfield's admission. i think steve scalise, our whip on the minority side was right on target when he wrote to the speaker and said we need to have the investigation. of course she rebufferred him but it is still is important, it still needs to happen. elizabeth: a former official in
6:18 pm
the state department told abc that the u.s. government knew that the chinese military was funding the wuhan lab and the state department knew. the state department in january reported the same information too. listen to canadian jon stewart. he went on "the late show with stephen colbert." he backed the lab leak possibility. take a listen to this. >> science has in many ways helped ease the suffering of this pandemic which was more than likely caused by science. novel respiratory coronavirus overtaking wuhan, china, what do we do? oh, you know who we could ask? the wuhan novel respiratory virus lab. the disease is the same name as the lab. look at the name. let me see your business card. show me your business card! oh, i work at the coronavirus
6:19 pm
lab in wuhan. there has been an outbreak of chocolatety goodness near hershey, pennsylvania. what do you think happened? elizabeth: pretty funny stuff. what do you say to that, congressman? >> it would be funny if it wasn't so tragic. look, isn't it we're at a place now where the best news out of all of this it was a lab leak. the worst news is it could have been something more nefarious. we've gone from a year ago, no way it could be a lab leak, this had to be natural occurrence. jumped from bats to man in one generation. no one ever seen that before. of course that is the likely explanation. now the lab leak seems like again, the least, least malignant possibility. elizabeth: you know, when trump said this last year, dems ignored that in order to go after trump for what they said was his mishandling of the coronavirus outbreak.
6:20 pm
there is also this, a major loophole in the u.s. government funding of dangerous supervirus research, this gain of function research it, could have led to potentially weaker oversight. here is what happened. the nih lifted a ban on u.s. funding in december of 2017. virologists and scientific community pushed for that. nih proposed new rules you have to have another layer of review. those rules did not apply to research privately-funded by universities and other parts of the government. only applied to experiments done by the hhs. what do you say? >> there is no question it did lead to a breakdown in oversight. look, all the people critical of president trump in those early days he didn't do enough, he withheld information, my gosh we all got the same briefings. everyone of us were in the member only briefings, republican, and democrat. i heard the same information that they heard. i went back to my district said, we need to get ready, this thing
6:21 pm
will be really bad. trump was not withholding information. if anything he was out front trying to, let's stop the travel from that area because whoever heard of a city of 10 million people closed down before? no one had. when that was seen by the administration, secretary azar, president trump, did exactly the right thing, let's cut off flights from mainland china. and look, to their credit, to their everlasting credit that was the right decision. subsequent to that "operation warp speed" was an incredibly foresightful decision. that is as was referenced in your crip, that was one of the things that got us out of it the science surrounding "operation warp speed." elizabeth: okay, congressman michael burgess. thanks for joining us. good to see you. >> good deal. thank you. elizabeth: we're following a new report that says the democrats are under pressure to raise taxes after that pro-publica

"the hill" magazine, looks like democrats will use this illegal irs leak of billionaire tax returns to "propublica" in order to set up their tax hike agenda. mitch mcconnell today saying there should be criminal prosecutions instead. how will this unfold? what do you think? >> well i think mitch mcconnell first of all is absolutely right. this is an egregious violation of the public trust. i get billionaires are not sympathetic character as average americans but we still should not have this rogue agency
6:27 pm
releasing private information into the public domain. that is absolutely wrong. here is was absolutely done with the express purpose of building momentum behind biden's plans and warren's plans, other democrat plans to raise taxes on the wealthy. that is wrong. it should not happen. it shouldn't have happened before this leak but especially should not happen right now. elizabeth: because right after the illegal irs leak, massachusetts democrat senator elizabeth warren doubled down on her wealth tax. you have the senate finance chair, ron wyden, saying he will push to tax the upper bracket. and now you have a patriot tax from the new york democrat congressman thomas suozzi. that is happening too. you wonder how far can they go with this? you know what? let's listen to senate minority leader mitch mcconnell. he again says whoever did this, you should throw the book at them, and criminally prosecute them. watch this.

>> it appears anonymous source committed a felony by releasing confidential information of american citizens. american taxpayers are required by law to comply with invasive disclosure requirements and they're doing it with less and less confidence that the federal government will honor their trust. a fundamental piece of our nation's social contract is frayed but just how worried you should be about it apparently depends on your personal politics. elizabeth: depends on your personal politics. what do you say? >> yeah, he's right, absolutely. not only do they want to raise taxes but these very same politicians want to grow the irs, increasing 87,000 of irs agents come after you, small businesses, of course go after wealthiest, provide them with new powers. this, they're also proposing to
6:29 pm
have the irs get information from banks about how we're spending our money, how small businesses, independent business are spending their money. guess what happens when we provide them with more private information? there is higher likelihood we'll have another hacker, rogue agent at the irs turning over this information, making our personal private information public. that should be terrifying for every american, whether you're a billionaire, whether you're barely scraping by. this is really, really wrong what we're talking about here. it is an egregious violation. elizabeth: republicans say they will try to block $80 billion extra funding democrats want to give to the irs around block new disclosures banks have to make on the gross balances of savings and checking accounts. do you think the gop can block this? >> i think there is a good chance. this may have put the wind at backs for people that want to raise taxes it will make it more difficult for them to increase the irs budget and provide those
6:30 pm
additional reporting requirements as you just mentioned because people rin creasingly skeptical of the irs. if the irs can release information for jeff bezos and elon musk, why can't it release information about your small business, your local small business or individual taxpayers that are not making billions of dollars? it could release information about everybody en masse, and that is troubling. i think it's a reason why we need to slam on the brakes for some of the proposals coming out of white house and the congress. elizabeth: brandon arnold, thanks for joining us. come back soon. >> thanks. elizabeth: we're at the bottom of the hour. you're watching the fox business network. a top official at facebook admits, yes, its fact-checkers could be politically biased after facebook has been accused censoring trump, conservatives, the wuhan lab leak, information about the coronavirus and much more. congressman greg stuebe is back with us next.

u.s., not even in the top 10 in science, 30th in mat. companies are outsourcing seas, elizabeth, maybe because of costs but students in asia, india, europe are much better prepared. so educators in this country preach about diversity but they're not talking about the most important diversity of all, diversity of thought, elizabeth. elizabeth: park fled from north korea to china in 2007. she later moved to south korea in 2009. 2014 she began attending barnard college and later columbia university in 2016. this is not long ago. let's listen to what she had to say. >> even with my language i learned, i like say he as she by mistake. not because i don't respect them, but now they ask me to call them they. i said how the heck do i

incooperate that in my sentences. even north korea is not that nuts. i was like, north korea is pretty crazy but not this crazy. i was paying this fortune and time and energy to learn how to think but they are forcing me to think the way they wanted me to think. elizabeth: see that. she is paying a lot of money in tuition to be told how to think. really something. go ahead. >> i know. you think about what it costs to send a kid to college these days, columbia, costs about $300,000 for the whole boat for four years. i'm thinking, okay, so i'm going to work my butt off now as a parent. thankfully my parents are seven and five. they don't have cross this bridge but i'm saving already, but i will send them to top universities, ivy league universities to be taught how to think? we should be thinking our kids how to handle the things in the real world, elizabeth. how do you manage credit?

how do you take out a mortgage? how do you pay it off effectively? how many understand social media and email etiquette which is so important, how do you prepare for a job interview? i could go on and on all the things we should teach our kids. but instead we're obsessing about race, obsessing about political correctness, and kids are falling behind while they're programmed to basically not like each other based on the color of their skin than the content much their character. i believe a guy named king said that once. elizabeth: park is not alone. there was a parent who escaped maoist china. she was from china, telling a school board what you're teaching in u.s. public schools is what she and other parents from china escaped from. let's listen to her. watch this. >> we basically canceled the whole chinese civilization pre-communism. in a way changed our school names, street names, store
