"the evening edit" starts right now. ♪♪ elizabeth: welcome to the show. you'rere watching the fox busins network human being with a 30 u.s. army four-star general foreign-policy expert "fox news" contributor general jack keane. your reaction to the summit and did putin walk away with no repercussions to ask is true? what do you say? >> first of all both of them walked away feeling pretty good about it. they looked for things they can define successs for them which s

pretty standard at these regardless of who is participating but certainly any analysis of this would tell you that president biden went into this with a strategic objective to try to take the all-time low relationship that we have with russia and try to defuse and reduce the tension so prior to thishi summit he did three thin. it made major concessions to russia. one you mentioned was the nordstrom to pipeline -- nord stream ii pipeline and that's given russia windfall in terms of financial upside and has given him economic and potentially military leverage over eastern europe in particular and it squeezes ukraine quite a bit. the second thing is not well-known when he went back into the star to treaty in january of his administration at

best for the first week of february and what he did is we were negotiating with the russians to include some advanced weapons that were not covered by the s.t.a.r.t. ii treaty and russia has most of those andos it makes sense to gt them underneath that umbrella. weha are trying to get china to participate because they have a growing and expanding nuclear arsenal. those negotiations were on the table with the russians walked away from all of that and just extended the treaty. the third thing is we had significant ransomware attacks in the united states on a scale we have not seen during the trump administration. what he should have done is use the tools that are available to him and cyber command. they have new authorities at the trump administration and they use those authorities to shut down russia's 2018th election to shut it down again in the 2020 election. those of those attacks that they

made on their cyber infrastructure that were launched in those attacks were disclosed publiclys to the american people. one by the president of the united states and the other by the director of cybercommand so those are the concessions we made going in and what did we do? we came up with a laundry list of things to discuss with no policy commitment for anything that's going to take place. i think -- a relatively empty hand. elizabeth: so what are fresh across as president biden's line in the sand with a cyberattack on the cyberin today. it feels like obama's landon -- line in the sand in syria. north korea and iraq but "the new york times" is reporting the u.s. authority inside of russia's power grid we have been there since 2012 so president biden did say if russia does

this again he did bring up a ransomware attack on oilfields. that seems like an act of war. >> well i thought after the ransomware attack that we would go after the cyber infrastructure but we should hit them with sanctions and oil and gas industry and expose his personal wealth and hit that as well. the extensions haven't worked with the russians. you've got to hit putin where he is and this is a declining power whose economies in the tank and the one commodity economy of oil and gas and the other thing i don't like about this we gave putin a world platform and he knows how to play it. he stood there for 55 minutes and something of the neighborhood of 26 or 27 questions. he dealt with the american press and the international russian press. our president stood up there for something like 22 minutes and

took 10 minutes worth of questions, six or seven questions all from the american press. those optics were. elizabeth: that's what people are saying.iz president trump would likely agree with you. let's listen to what former president trump said. >> the overall as we didn't get anything we gave a very big stage to russia and we got nothing andg we gave up somethig that was unbelievablyy valuable. i stop the pipeline nord stream and the pipeline was stopped and was given back and nothing was gotten for it. i think it was a good day for russia. i don't see what we got out of it. elizabeth -- elizabeth: what do you say general? >> think a different would have been if we had conducted a counterattack they were capable of after the ransomware attacks. we go into the meeting and we

tell them vladimir it's going to get worse if you continue to attack us. what i we just did to you we can do over and over and over again and every time we do it we will put it in the public domain. we would have gotten a different reaction from vladimir putin. elizabeth: i that's a great poi. general jack keane thanks for inciting comebacks and put a spring in i former state department official chris widen. russia's half the size of california and nikki haley says to focus on china. china's after world domination. >> i thinks on that's one problem that biden had going into the sequence of events after thela g7 summit at nato. these are organizations that have a strong incentive to heighten the risk of russia. russia's a dangerous country and not helpful to the united states and is not a liberal country. as a giant nuclear arsenal but

the economy is so much smaller. the economy is 10 times the size of russia and europe is about nine times the size. we have a serious threat from china. i think we are going to far saying china want to take over the world. think they definitely want to replace america as the top country and they pose a significant threat. elizabeth: taiwan said they had the largest incursion of chinese military the day after nato said china back off and taiwan so china did that and made that announcement. that's what's happening with china right now and taiwan. i want to go back to what happened with president biden being challenged by a "cnn" reporter basically the "cnn" reporter was -- when he's been downplaying his nine cyber attacks.

[inaudible] >> that what i said was let's get it straight i said what will change their behavior is it if the rest of the world reacts. i'm not confident he'll change his behavior. >> givents his past behavior is not changed he denies any involvement in thehe cyber attak and refuse to say -- so how did that -- elizabeth: the president subsequently apologized theygi complained that reporters never ask positive questions. what about the questions on the campaign trail in the fact that

he didn't have press conferences than the fact that under obama when you are vicehe president te obama campaign kept them off the campaign starting in 2012 and one about the endless questions that president trump went through? what happened here? >> it's a bad day for a democrat in the white house when you are at odds with "cnn." we didn't hear anything from the dmv during the presidential campaign because "cnn" the corporate media took that job t over. she asked an interesting question in biden's response basically at the press conference is he is yelling about russia should and shouldn't do. general keane alluded to this heat -- but forgot to geneva. jake sullivan said we would retaliate against russia with the cyber attack and not the ransomware attack but a news attack. biden's people said if we figure out its russia we will hit them with cyber and we will do things

that are seen and unseen and the thing we are so unseen that no one of the world knows about as you pointed out there has been a line in the sand the red line incident as with obama in now with biden. there's a list of 16 entities are organizations are set years and you can bet that "fox business" is not on that list. one final point is when it comes to the press biden is so bad because he's been untested by the media. that's one reason they didn't do a joint press conference with putin and one reason putin has this platform to speak from. elizabeth: should he have done a press conference along with putin side-by-side? >> yeah, i think so. he's incapable of doing that shouldn't be doing a summit like thiss even better don't do the press conference at all but he should be able to hold his own

with vladimir putin and a few on the stage with him and putin saysys something like while america does more cyber attacks in russia he could say no mr. president it doesn't. he's not like those presidents have to learn about foreign policym 30s done this in his entire career. chairman of the foreign -- elizabeth: christian whiton thanks for joining us. former white house chief of staff mick mulvaney will take this one on former president trump saying the president is taking the u.s. backward on energy independence and warning former president trump is warning that green energy isn't enough to power u.s. factories and that's next when that's next when "the evening edit" continues. >> you can do enough to satisfy them. the fiber than 40 billion-dollar transportation reactors and bill we just marked up last week

elizabeth: former president trump saint sitting president ike is taking the u.s. backward in terms of energy independence. is this a serious threat and is this the real thing? what do you think? >> thanks for having me. it's a threaded a couple of different levels. here we are in a circumstance that democrats are printing this money creating a risk of inflation at the same time taking these good gasoline oil off of the market and it will create tremendous increases. you will see the impact of democratic policies on your pocket look. it's an economic impact of what they are doing with energy and a foreign-policy component. we watched general keane and how unusual it is to go to a

circumstance where it joe biden is making it easier for the russians to export their gas making it harder for us to export hours and went president trump as president he knew we had leverage over rush if he could restrict their export and we can could export or liquefied natural gas. we tried to figure the way to the export natural gas to europe to take the reliance of russia down a couple of notches and the great leverage that would have been for joe biden hedy continue those policies but he did the exact opposite. it was a great day for russia is what president trump's said and he's absolutely right. economic policy energy policy and foreign-policy and biden is going in the wrong direction on both of those. elizabeth: there's good news out of the oil sector. it's expected to generate $30 billion a year.

u.s. wild captors are the best performing in the s&p 500 index. >> that followed private lampert president obama try to take credit for the dramatic increase in oil and gas production in the u.s. the north fact that was on private land. the biden the administration is the third term of the obama administration essentially stopping oil and gas leases on federal land. what you're talking about is why the private sector in this country so powerful and fantastic at creating wealth and by restricting the access to public lands is acting against their own best interest. elizabeth: let's watch former president trump. watch this. >> for pennsylvania taxes and all of these places where we are doing so well with energy we are not going to be energy

independent in two months from now. they will read our land and kill our birds and they kill everything and they are determined as you have learned from watching over the last four months intermittent energy. it's not going to power our great track years. elizabeth: on that last point he's saying that wind power is not going to power u.s. factories. it's intermittent energy. they don't have backup storage like you do with oil and gas so that's what president trump was talking about. that was a good point he made. >> and he is right and what you see is we rely so heavily on solar and wind and the things that are not as reliable as oil and gas and coal costs go up. one thing president trump ticket damage of was that we had a competitive advantage of the marketplace for energy. we were able to take gas out of the ground here condenses

liquefied incented overseas competitively. that's no effect if we are getting the stuff out of the ground here. it's a huge competitive advantage when it comes to industry. the chemical business was booming under president trump. i thought president thompson energy policy was great and exporting energy in this country and don't think anybody thought that was bad. the democrats are just politically but holden to the environmental left and they have to hate natural oil and gas and carbon to be a democrat. elizabeth: thanks for joining us. come back soon please. texas governor greg abbott announces a 1 billion-dollar budget for his border wall and border security. a warning about rising crime in the neighborhood home invasions

elizabeth: . the texas department of public safety lieutenant christopher olivarez. it's great to have you on. i love that hat you are wearing. it looks like a 10-gallon. to great hat. your reaction to the governor of texas greg abbott announcing a $1 billion budget for texas own border wall is the biden demonstrations stop construction. is thats enough money? >> well that's an example of great leadership and governor abbotttt recognized threats on e border when this first tech plays and he was in search of solutions to not only ensure the safety of the border community

but the citizens of texas. right now we have two bring 1000 resources to the border with the national guard but there's so much area to cover so many gaps along the border. it's challenging not only for us but for border patrol to fill those gaps and that's why it's important to haveri this one pls and to get the construction going for the law and the bear years taking place right now. elizabeth: lieutenant what is happening here too is the governor announced a quarter billion dollar down payment on texas own order won'tnt he said it's a combination of state land in donations of private land in these asking for biden to give back the land that the federal government took under less of frustration so this sounds r lie a fight to get this up and running. what do you say waxed >> it's going to be a challenge for the governor but one thing the governor is doing is great

leadership. he's not going to back down. the state of texas will lead the charge and to do it we can to shore up the border. youde can see behind me i'm in between a gap along the border wall and i could want to show you there are so many gaps along the border right now that it's very critical to have structures in place to help disrupt this criminal activity taking place right now. elizabeth: the governors talking about how crime has been rising in neighborhoods and communities at thes border. we have been covering this for five years and we have seen the city increasedn in this problem of local towns and folks down there and seeing things like home invasions and property destruction and more purposes and to the governor now. >> make no mistake the border crisis dealing with right now is a direct result of an open

border policy that have been put into place by the biden demonstrations. the problems that people are suffering on the border continue to get worse. homes are being invaded. neighborhoods are dangerous and people are being threatened on a daily basis with guns. people coming across the border are working with those who are coming across the border. elizabeth: lieutenant can youhe talk to us more about what local communities are seeing in the way of i'm mike is? can you talk to us about that? >> wanting it to keep in mind when you have a certain migrants coming across and the unaccompanied children and families that distracts and overwhelms law enforcement. we focus our efforts on that and when that happens we have organizations taking advantage of the situation exploiting the

gaps on the border and you are making them more powerful by allowing it to happen and making money off of this current situation. it's imperative that we do something. we are stepping forward and we provided the resources to the borderte not only to --and alsol paso. we want to keep our citizens safe. elizabeth: lieutenant olvera street for joining us and thank you for such serving our country. up next we break down another covid cover-up. how critics say scientists in mainstream media covered up that wuhan lab leak to ensure that former president trump took the blame for the pandemic is not china. that story is next. >> they are hatred of donald trump and anyone around donald trump meant they would our rather believe china's feeble excuses about this than they

elizabeth: elizabeth: joining us mouse congressman mike gallagher. it's good to see you. we have news coming in. this one is pretty stunning and shocking and disturbing. one of the 18 scientists who signed that letter that appeared in the journal of science saying investigate covid-19 and weather came from a wuhan lab they are saying scientists refused to admit to that possibility because they don't want to be associated with donald trump. they are basically saying and let me back up them media portrays trump as a racist so they say scientist don't want to be associated with quote trump a racist rhetoric the so-called

wuhan -- what do you say what do you say? >> any scientist that conduct themselves in suches a manner is acting more like a religious zealot than a scientist and in this case the religion is one of unmitigated anti-trump ideology which has the practical effect of distracting our attention away from investigating the lab thereby giving the chinese communist party a pass on unleashing a pandemic that up-ended millions of lives and ended millions of lives across the world and ultimately eroded public trust and scientists and public health. that's a tragedy. my hope is that we can learn from this and move forward to get to the bottom of this pandemic hold the chinese communist party accountable for its massive massive cover-up and

demand better from our own government. it's the biggest intelligence failure since 9/11 the fact that we have can look to scientist telling us we have a huge problem. elizabeth: house minority leader kevinin mccarthy says quote the mainstream media and tech companies helped cover up the possibility that this was a lab accident. we have three wuhan lab workers getting sick of covid in november of 2019 and they weref hospitalized. is the media big tech and democrats putting politics ahead of science? how many more people died because they would get this virus so lethal and in so contagious and gain capability they are? >> think about it. ifut we had known in early december when the cdc office sending folks over there to investigate the lab if we have learned the key things about the virus back then we could have

understood that perhaps we could have known there was a symptomatic transition from human-to-human and we would have had an entirely different public health approach if we had had more transparency on the front and and been ablee to investigae the lab leak hypothesis and the idea that this was a virus that was genetically modified at the wuhan laboratory by. i can guarantee we would have had entirely different approach and it would be far more successful than the disastrous shutdown? elizabeth: even cnn's chief medical correspondent doctors sanjay kuchta is saying yes he thinks it didn't leak from a lab and it should be investigated because this virus, when viruses go from animals to humans and spiders along and takes a while to infect.

this covid-19 exploded. he came in at 90 miles and are an all of a sudden it started spreading wildly around the world. whether or not we can find out what happened is an issue and you pointed out lockdowns and governor desantis of florida saying we can't go through shutdowns and lockdowns again the way they were handled. let's take a listen to the governor here. >> this locked down state flu want to make sure doesn't it doesn't happen to our country again for the default should be freedom and you have data to support policies then you have to have a reason to do it and i think you have the 15 days to slow the spread of matt turned into a perpetual lot down in states like florida and georgia who kept everything open. that can't be the way it is. elizabeth: now the governor is pardoning people in florida for

violating covid-19 shut down roles in looking at including a gym on her face jail time at one point of your response to the governor? >> i agree completely with the governor and the fact is we went from 15 days of covid spread to avoid overwhelming hospital systems and then suddenly the goal postt change to we are goig to stay shut down this thing disappears entirely and i was never how was intended. just think about the cost to our kids. the kids who arend struggling wo just lost a year of education because of the teachers union and exploited the crisis to keep those school shut down. we will have to go a long way to getting those kids back to whern they were before. the cost has been immense and it is a cost mental health to our children all because we went to the public health response and too many evil politicized law supposed to be ali scientific approach. elizabeth: congressman mike

gallagher it's terrific to have you on. great insightt there. coming up will show you how dr. fauci's previous comments are now undercutting his denial that he basically suppressed the possibility that the covid virus escaped from the wuhan lab. >> it always became about dr. fauci and it's a sad state of affairs because halfway into the sea stops delivering public information started delivering propaganda. they lookri back at this now he misled us on host of things to the mask and lockdowns of what the federal government role is in research. i hope congress is paying attention to this discussion we are having i because his timelie between public information and propaganda.

el elizabeth elizabeth: let's welcomeco back and colonnades. dr. anthony fauci pushed back on criticism that he deliberately suppress the theory that covid-19 originated in the lab and china claim he is kept an open mind. such of the history of his statement. they tell a different story thah he'll wasn't basically all about being open-minded. let's show the viewers. what do you say vince? >> dr. anthony fauci now claiming he was open-minded about it is preposterous because last april remember he stepped up to the podium at a white house press conference and he was asked about the theory that this may have come from a laboratory was propaganda by a few republican senators and anthony fauci downplayed a pretty set said all the evidence points to this being a natural occurrence and he referenced a bunch of scientists who we now know have dramatic conflicts of interest and there were articles

in top scientific journals insisting j the lab very had no basis in truth. we knew that was a lie and these guys had meaningful conflicts of interest when he came to receiving and handling american taxpayer funding that went directly to that lab in wuhan. anthony fauci was happy in april when heof last year spoke to the national geographic to insist he did not think this was a lab leak in this was natural in origin. elizabeth: hhs and the inspector general for hhs did an audit of funding and what happened with the funding of the wuhan lab. we see dr. fauci saying 16,000 went to the wuhan lab and other estimates say was a million dollars. >> why are we funding dangerous research inside of the lab and communist controlled china? that seems like a gigantic issue so we need to get to the bottom

of that for sure. additionally i do hope the inspector general gives us clear answers on whether or not we were funding gain of function research. seems like we were. anthony fauci told rand paul in senate testimony that he claimed oh no that was not a function of research but it seems like her money went to lab where they were making viruses more infectious to humans and if that's not research i don't know whatch is. elizabeth: he also said the government wasn'tas monitoring what china's doing there in the state department said that lab is working with the chinese military. your final word dense? >> i think it's an overstatement but this feelsls like one of the biggest scandals in american history but if it's true that american taxpayer money is being used to create a pandemic that ended up killing 600,000 americans that is a seismic occurrence and i feel like we

are not i speaking about this wh the intensity that we need to. and i hope we get to the bottom of this. it was a bit vince coglianese comeback sempra just aheadin arizona attorney general mark brnovich will join us on how florida and your jar help them texas protect the border with their own law enforcement sources after the governors said policies are putting neighborhoods in danger. that story is next. see if there's significant going on with human trafficking the cartel and drugs and i rethink coming across the border because of the policies the last 4.5 to five months. we are talking about it in a raid this is a threat to the homeland and it needs to be addressed. they need to start doing their job.

problem for the entire country. it's not only massive amount of people coming across the border that we just saw last month 180,000 people and we expect 2 million this year but it's the cartel using this and the sooner record amount of sentinel coming in here and a record amount of sex offenders would have would have been identified. this will affect every state. it's going to comment to florida and other states. it's important that all of us worked together but at the end of the day it's the biden demonstration and the federal government's responsibility. they are constitutionally charged with protecting our border in protecting america and the biden administration is not doing it. elizabeth: we had 37,000 crossings, trying to cross and 2015.ss six years later 2 million so that's about the population of

the and this is a humanitarian country. we want legal immigration we want to help people and help refugees ready to do it illegally you are going to get assaulted or killed along the way. governor ron desantis has been sending law enforcement from the dozen different agencies. he's really stepping up here. what other states do you think mightt step up? attorney general ford is saying send in help right now or he. >> we need all the help we can get. once again as you pointed out we discussed these numbers i'm a first generation american. we also know the fact that people are crossing illegally and it's overwhelming the system. we are waiting for a federal judge to make a decision where the biden and his administration is withholding deportation. there are 1.2 million people

pets pending deportation orders of the biden administration has to start obeying the law and just like the river the dam is broke and so they are trying to help us in the cold water but the white administration should start deportation orders to make sure we aren't allowing dangerous people into our community and at the end of the day make sure things like the mexico policy are implemented. there are a lot of things the biden administration could be doing and are not doing and we are all suffering the consequences. god bless desantis in florida and georgia and is up to the biden and administration. elizabeth: can you tell us exactly what's going on in border neighborhoods? >> yeah if you go to southerners on in top two rangers and

farmers people who have been down there for generations we'll tell you they have never seen anything like this. we talked to -- that the average person leaves 15 pounds of trash. you're also seeing people feel threatenedan and people have sht the border sheriffs through these are the people that are corrupting the border and surrounding border patrol and people are trying to -- we have heard the stories about crime. you alluded to the fact that people are crossing the border and they are being exploited and take advantage of and when they see the cartel many of them end up in human trafficking and being exploited and raped so this is a humanitarian crisis. it's ahi national security criss in reno the criminal cartel are taking advantage of it. we've seen a spike in fentanyl

and heroin coming across the border and local 20s have to deal with the consequences of cethe biden of and the first crisis they face in the sit administration and getting an f grade. elizabeth: markets good to have you. we have to wrap it up. good to have you on. thank you so much for joining us. in. "kudlow" hello welcome back to "kudlow." i'm larry kudlow. i'm still hung up on yesterday's biden putin meeting and i suspect many of you are too. so many problems in so many issues in so many things left hanging on both sides also i don't want to play politics with foreign policy but i'm very old-fashioned. i believe in the old-fashioned system that politics should stop at the water's edge and their leaders go overseas they should
