♪. the show: welcome to you're watching the fox business network, we begin with unrest in venezuela a day after protests broke out nationwide in cubast e communist regime and venezuela is being led by cuban military intelligence abducted and imprisoned top opposition leader freddie guevera, and security forces entered venezuela opposition leader juan guaido's building with a machine gun set off an explosive, all in an attempt to arrest him on charges of inciting unrest, he is not arrested right now, we're staying on the story and we will turn to what's going on in cuba 32 cities protested demanded and into the oppressive communist regime we have not seen this in more than five decades, protests broke out on a large scale with public fighting and sounds ofal heavy gunfire, cuba is disappearing people, lucas

tomlinson is at the pentagon with more. >> the reports of those protests continue for a second consecutive day in cuba president biden weight in this afternoon. >> the cuban people demanding more from their freedom from an authoritarian regime i don't think we've seen anything like this in protest in a long, long time or quite frankly ever. >> a short time later the secretary of state pushback on the cuban government who accused the u.s. of meddling in their affairs secretary blinken said it would be a mistake for the cuban regime to interpret what's happening in dozens of towns and cities across the island as a result a byproduct of anything the united states has done the video protests which began sunday show some holding the american flag during their marks of the dictatorship and the horrible economic conditions made worse by the coronavirus pandemic cuban foreign minister have accused the u.s. of

hypocrisy. elizabeth: thank you lucas tomlinson, good to see you. joining us florida congressman gregweon steube, first your rean to the protested cuba and what's happening in venezuela. >> we need to stand for the cuban people and do everything that we can to fight against the castro regime if the biden the administration is going to resume economic ties to cuba must be directly tied to democratic or economic reforms will in communist rule we cannot have the activity close too our border, we support the cuban people, we do not support thehe communist regime and what is interesting you see democrats, not saying a word when they talk about socialism and supporting communism here in america, those people like aoc and bernie sanders are being quiet and they know it's not great for the people of cuba and not great for americans and we need to have freedom and democracy in cuba. elizabeth: bernie sanders put out a statement saying he supports people's rights for freedom and protesting, but not

did nothing with the communist regime is doing in cuba and venezuela they have been the destabilizing forces in the westerns hemisphere cuba for moe than six decades they afforded efforts to make america free zone, would you say that. >> it is just talk, they want to make america a socialist country he calls himself a democratic socialist. they want to take steps towards the direction so they will not callout the communistth regime directly and they will standpl with the people of cuba, that's the direction of the policy, we cannot have that in america, there's a reason why cubans are fleeing to the united states in a large population of cubans in florida because they don't support communism and socialism and they want freedom, that's why they come to america. elizabeth: cuba's communist leaders put out an order of combat they took to the airways and telling all communist to leave their houses and beat up and attack those protestingg for democracy basically received street fighting and people been

assaulted and innocent people but unarmed been arrested and attacked in the cuban regime military police were hearing a shooting unarmed cuban protesters fighting for freedom and the disappearing people again, your word on that. >> that's what's happening totalitarian regime that are authoritative in nature, when their i power is a balance or check and the people are rising up and they could use their military to try to silence as people and that's what america needs to be strong and divided administration needs to be strong and stand with the cuban people. elizabeth: the word is the totalitarian regime was great for health system and best equipped to handle pine dominics the cuban regimee is blaming the embargo and the sanctions put oe president biden has kept those in place, the embargo doesn't

stop food or humanitarian aid including medicine coming into cuba there's a lot of misinformation flying around aabout this and people on twitr are describing the protest is all about covid cnn blame term for what's going on in cuba, there take of the dangers of the misinformation. >> of course cnn is going to blame trump, they blame him for everything he instituted policy and sanctions and put sanctions in place in the obama administration did not do because the obama administration was normalizing with cuba which had theit opposite effect of making it american and make it a democracy washed in the trump administration reversed it until theyl can show that they can hae resumed relations or economic ties to democratic red economic reforms we should keep the sanctions in place. elizabeth: congressman greg steube it's good to see you, thank you for joining us. let's turn to the story, crime in america former detroit police

chief james craig, it's great to have you on the president is moving on crime in u.s. cities meeting with local leaders in law enforcement as strike force in places like chicago, los angeles, d.c. is this going to work, what do you say. >> thank you for having me on the show i'm disappointed and it's going to be candid this feels so political certainly we know what the polls have said the number one concern about our wmacon folks is violent crime,e come out and we call folkestone and we talk about years and soundbites, let's look at the police or reimagining let's look at schools in employment while those things are very important, don't get me wrong, critically important, those are long-term measures, were gonna take covid money to do what, hire more police, what are they going to do, community policing. i'm a strong advocate but we have got to stop the violence

and no one's talking about that. what about bail reform. elizabeth: polls show a majority of americans and black and a majority of democrats say don't d from police, violent crime has been rising in double digits four years since 2019, chicago 42 people again shot, ten were fatally shot, denver police more than a dozen guns in a thousand rounds of ammunition and body armor and hotel room two blocks from the major-league baseball are stir league. this is stuff that is happening, how would you put a stop to all of this. >> we have shown in my leadership in detroit during the summer of 2020 there was no looting, no burning there was a few instances where police officers were attacked but we build strong trust-based relationships with our community, that is key but as

important, criminals need to know one thing there are consequences associated with your actions this is not just a police issue, this is the criminal justice that is broken, i'm going to go back, let's talk about bail reform. and then i'm disappointed, i appreciate law and order of the captain who came out so well in new york but then he goes on to talk about the issues and he makes it seemed like this administration talking about is response to dealing with crime, did we forget about operation legend under our former president trump, operation legend was working in detroit. ? who speaks for them? this is the problem. i just feel like it scratched the surface and not saying some

of these issues are not good, we talk about hiring police. how will you hire police officers when you're not even supporting the men and women in the profession? police officers are resigning. they're ret elizabeth: they are retiring in the nutrition rate is so high right now were not going to be able to hire enough to keep up. elizabeth:t we see you the polie quitting in record numbers in major cities across the country, that's what's going on with crime breaking out, we hear eric adams who won the democrat primary in new york city we hear former president trump talking about crime, how serious of an issue for the democrat party. >> is a very serious issue, the moderates on the democratic party are moving towards the center, they are distancing themselves from the progressives and saying we don't want to defund, but here's the problem,

they still want to defund, when the rest of us become who speaks out against them, secondly let's not forget immunity ending qualified immunity is defunding the police. in democrats want to pedal and iin a qualified immunity you cn have a real conversation let's talk aboutth that, the vast thmajority wanting to commit and do it right. james craig, thank you so much for joining us, thank you for your service to our country, come back soon. next up were watching your money the teachers union afl-cio the far left want bigger tax hikes double the proposed tax increases, democrats already have on the table liz peek joins us next, you're watching "the evening edit" on fox"t business. >> in the middle of the pandemic

probably going to get fired up about this, coalition of labor and liberal advocacy groups the asl cio, the teachers union they sent a letter to capitol hill there saying to $4 trillion in tax hikes,s. that's double what democrats are talking about their talk about 2.4 trillion now they want 4 trillion in tax hikes, what do you say. >> americans need to start paying attention we have seen the share of the gross national product accounted for almost double since the year 2000, this is a major power grab, the excuses covid but there is no excuse, if you count in state and local taxes and federal spending for two percentage points away from sweden which we consider a socialist nation. democrats are looking for mammoth amounts of spending forr other special interest groups and the teachers unions are number one in the group we've already designated hundreds of

billions of dollars in the past three relief measures or the schools with no strings attached money was directly to the teachers union and they support joe biden, it's a power grab and it's a dangerous thing, we do not have a tax revenue problem in this country we have a spending problem and people need to pay attention to it. elizabeth: a government abuse problem of taxpayer money. elizabeth: we hear you there is talk of bernie sanders trojan horse and liz warns trojan horse because the teachers union and the cio were talking about trillions of dollars in tax hikes through using that for public story which shows billionaires claim paid 3.4% in taxes and that was her income

taxes as a percentage of their paper wealth. wealth is not taxed in this country, it's unconstitutional to do that this feels like a flawed trojan horse move to get wealth taxes in there. >> it's dishonest they want a wealth tax even the other countries have found that wealth taxes are impossible to administer and they don't raves that much revenue because people up and leave, that's why you have 12 european countries that have that tax 20 years ago and now there's only four and francis on the margin of that, it doesn't work and americans find that entire premise incredibly offensive. but all of this, the soundbites how warren buffett pays less in taxes and a secretary is really not true we have one of the most progressive tax systems in the world, the top 1% pay 40% of the

taxes last year even though they only accounted for 21% of the income that is how steep our tax system is. taxing wealth is a terrible idea from so many different perspectives but the answer is, we do nots have a revenue problm in this country, historically tax revenues have been 18% of gdp right now they're running 50% higher than that, 25% we don't need to cut or increase taxes, we need to cut spending and doing now. elizabeth: the tax talks are happening now in the summer when no one is watching, now we hear democrats like joe manchin kyrsten sinema don't like the tax hikes the moderates fear that they're going to lose big time and they could lose control of the house and the midterms, the other thing that is happening i like your assessment of this, a dozen states arees cutting taxes they're going in

the opposite direction of big government and look at that they want to cut income taxes, your take on that. >> the reason is they can, state and local revenues are far surpassing the estimate when we came into this year end i also just got the 350 billion-dollar handout from the federal government. some stringser and attached and they were allowed to lose that at the lower taxes but they're doing that because now several lawsuits challenging not requirement, i think the red states t get it that lower taxes bring in new business and help the states grow and by the way they are growing faster than the blue states, look a california compared to florida or new york compared to florida, lower taxes in florida a better investment climate and business climate and businesses are leaving in the

blue states are leaving in droves to go to florida. i don't see how about so complicated for democrats, they don't connect those dots, they're pretty obvious. elizabeth: is staring at them through the windshield, liz peek, good to have you on, come back soon. we have more mask confusion, the white house says it will support an immense apology to enact mask mandate and vaccine mandates. dr. fauci has been talking about this about half of u.s. 800 states they don't plan to enforce mask mandate that schools are the white house plans to do a big push on facebook and twitter about those who oppose knocking on doors campaign to get people vaccinated. doctor amesh adalja is next on "the evening edit". >> it's very hard to breathe,

mandates and vaccine mask mandates, dr. fauci called for that, half of u.s. states say they don't plan to enforce mask mandates, there's a lot off confusion can you help us break this down. >> what we see is a very heterogeneous very different looking pandemic depending on what states but their states and mississippi, missouri, arkansas where covid-19 is a major issue but there's not enough people vaccinated so there is going toe be pressure on hospital and that's what we hear about springville missouri. in the cdc what the white house is talking about not having a one-size-fits-all policy and leaving in differing to state and local governments and health departments about what actions may or may not be necessary based on the local dynamic that is going on in a has to do with how much prior immunity is in the community and how much vaccination and what the hospitals look like, that's what we will see some differences in different parts of the country

based on local conditions and i think that's better than having a one-size-fits-all because many parts of the country the pandemic is largely over because we have so manybu people vaccinated, the parts not the same.he elizabeth: the ceo of united airlines thinks the mask mandates on airlines will go away when they expire in september, they won't come back, when people hear about the mandate and talk about mandate, what comes to mind for many people is a lot of people broke their own covid-19 shut down and locked on rules it's a lot of examples of hypocrisy out there and fears that that cant? happen again, what do you say to that. >> it's unfortunate that we saw throughout the pandemic many politicians and political leaders saying one thing and o doing another and that undermines a message making people think there's two sets of rules and was important that we do going forward is move away from mandates and force types of actions to recommendation and

using what we use during the hiv pandemic about harm reduction and giving people to make better risk calculation and not necessarily using government courts, we used a lot of recommendations about drove a lot of behavior underground, for example in california where you cannot dine outdoors people were dining indoors at people's private residence increasing transmission you have to be careful when you make aen recommendation to not get a response, it's also important if you're going to be a politician or leader giving people recommendations, you should follow or believe because it sends thehe wrong message. elizabeth: the white house plans to attack critics knocking on door campaign asking people for vaccinated or if they're getting vaccinated the new facebook and twitter campaign will call critics knock on door camping dangerous and extreme were seeing that criticism from dr. fauci against those who have not beent vaccinated is that not a destructive way to go to

berate people. >> were hitting the wall with vaccine hesitancy is going to take a lot of effort to get each additional dose of vaccine, what we need to do is work collaboratively and if you do door to door you should be with local primary physicians and local health departments and community leaders this is notrs seen as intrusive but i do think that we have to find a way to get more vaccineeo into people d show people what this value offers to the personal life i don't think shaming people are being aggressive but i think it's going to be aboutut showing people tremendous data that we have with the vaccine in their way to get your life back and not have to worry about covid-19 especially in the face of more contagious variance like the delta variant but it's going tot take time to find a proper strategy to get more people vaccinated. elizabeth: amesh adalja thank you for your time, good to see you, come back soon. coming out the bottom ofoo the hourg you're watching the fox business network former

and very disappointing there's nothing that we can do to monitor tobi make sure that hunr biden or anyone in the white house does not find out that h a dealer keeps his or her promise that the buyers don't call the white house asked for a meeting and say i just bought the presidents sons art for $500,000, has absolute appearance that is profiting off his father's he's not selling under and waiting till his father's out s of office and hes not selling any price comparable to what other first-time artists are selling. elizabeth: what to say. >> is putting all the right facts in there. how hard would it be to simply say your country of all these other entanglements going on and now you want to do this with your new hobby how about waiting a few years you stockpiled all those etch-a-sketch is or whatever they're doing and sell them when i'm out of office, it would not bee that hard but this

is brazen behavior and deciding within the biden family he's not good if these major criticism and face legal consequences and maybe there's good reason for that opinion and you also think about the marketplace, somebody's going to buy a hunter biden piece of artwork the first phone call they're making after the auction is to hunter biden. and to pretend you have s a tril in general, but the whole point of buying for the last name and that person will cash in, they will reach out to the biden family and make it very clear that the new picture in the dining room is a hunter biden classic. elizabeth: are leaving up to the art dealers in the wall street journal is reporting the names are kept secret at an auction because they feared that it would cut into the values and being transparent with reduced

interest from potential buyers, what you said about. >> this is a charade with all due respect third world countries were looking very third world return outsourced government ethics to an art dealer i was a government for 27 years and have plenty of manuals, i don't remember the art dealer exception of who would enforce the rules and they decided the media would not hold nthem accountable, the criminal justice system may or may not hold hunter biden h accountableo on we go with the cash in. elizabeth: jim trusty is good to see you, great job you want, representative ben cline at the house gop big tech censorship tax first, he will join us next on former president trump team claiming tens of thousands want to join the former president trump lawsuit againsth big tech over conservative censorship, big constitutional fight just beginning, that story next.

she raised questions about the side-effects of covid-19 vaccines, constitutionality of lockdowns. questioned the candor of dr. anthony fauci. she is left-of-center and getting shut down. your reaction to that? >> as i said it comes from the left and the right. we all need to be concerned about our free speech rights when you have just a handful of oligarchs exerting so much control over what we can say what we can say it and what plat forms we can say it on. section 230 of the communications decency act definitely needs to be reformed if not repealed. jim jordan has a great statute, the speech protection act, we need to pass. hopefully we'll be able to insure in the long term it is citizens who have the power and not the oligarchs of big tech. elizabeth: conservative columnist david catrone says congress has two avenues here. he says they are both backed up by the constitution. give facebook, social media

twitter, two options, one you can be common carriers like phone companies, you would be immune from liabilities or from lawsuits be required to show all viewpoints or be publishers, pick and choose what you show on the platform but subjected to lawsuits. which is the best after here here, do you think? >> that is what section 230 was originally meant to do, force the big check companies to choose. they could either be a neutral platform or could be a provider of the content but you can't be both and still get protection from liability. now we're looking to reinforce that original concept and say you can be one or the other but you can't be both anymore, big tech. elizabeth: all right. representative ben cline, thanks for joining us. it is good to see you. come back soon. next up representative kat cammack of florida joins us on the thousands taking to the streets across cuba to fight for democracy and freedom, to get rid of cuba's communist regime.

elizabeth: joining is nowfloridh us, your reaction to cubans and over 32 cities taking to the street and retaliation against the communist regime freedom with communism, they're carrying the american flag, the impoverished, suffering, they want to in the communism, your thoughts. >> i tell you of the 2 million plus cuban-americans are called the united states home these days over 60% of them call florida home, as a floridian i stand in solidarity with those who have bravely taken to the

streets protesting peacefully carrying the american flag calling for freedom and the notion that the biden administration has said this was in protest to covid and this shows they are so out of touch with not just americans but people all around the world striving for fundamental basic rights of freedom and like i said i cannot say enough about the bravery of those that have taken to the streets protesting communist regime and it's eerily quiet coming out of aoc and squad camps as well as bernie sanders, i found it really confusing that she's not set a word about cuba or across the country. >> good morning congresswoman referred from people in venezuela and people who have fled cuba, when they are silenced the atrocities committed by the regime where the disappearing people it gives

agency for communist dictators to do more, is that your take, is that true? >> absolutely you think about what is happening in places like cuba and venezuela where you have food scarcity and medical supply that are in scarce demand and supply you have tremendous violation of human rights and the united states under the biden administration has been tremendously quiet and silent and again, it points to the bigger issue of the administration has a problem with work they couldn't muster up enough courage to say crisis when it came to our orders in the southwestern region in the united states and now they have a problem saying communist which is in fact the cuban government, communist repressive regime that has stolen the future of so many cubans and cause many to flee causing tremendous pain-and-suffering to many families who have fled the country from their homeland in

great risk and peril to them and their children, when you talk about -- go ahead. elizabeth: the president pointed out a statement saying he supports a call for freedom inside of cuba and release from what is going on in decades of repression and economic suffering the president has kept the former president trump sanctions on cuba in the embargoes there, now we've got cnn blaming trump for that, we have the new york times messaging same freedom is an antigovernment slogan, your concerns how the media is giving misinformation of what's were not in cuba. >> i think the polling that came out recently that talks about how the majority of americans believe that the media has become really an enemy of the people and promoting fake news and this notion that freedom is an antigovernment calling.

i appreciate the left is trying to twist very basic definition of human rights and antigovernment, that is just nonsense, when you look at reporting from cnn and msnbc they are saying that the communist regime has really done horrific things against humans and like i said stolen the future in the lives of so many cubans and you think about them promoting the notion of the biden to administration going door to door for a vaccine program aging and gun grab, these are things that communist or social regimes engage in and they've encouraged it. it's no surprise that outlets like cnn or msnbc are willing to promote and do the bidding of the socialist regime that are hell-bent on controlling individuals and thinking that government is knowing best, we in america as americans we are

capable of making the best decisions for ourselves and families at the most basic level and we don't need an overbearing, overreaching government to do that for us which is why am so proud for so many standing up and fighting for their most basic human right freedom. elizabeth: we have problems a chain reaction in venezuela for juan guaido was being threatened with arrest they showed up with machine guns at his residential building, number two in his opposition is already been arrested word he's thrown into a prison known for torture inside caracas, we know there protest breaking on miami and were also hearing in cuba whether starting to disappear people, your word, do the american people know enough about what exactly communist cuba does to his people. >> i think there's a second generation of cuban-americans that has started to lean left

and maybe romanticize the notion of what a socialist dictatorship looks like and that's particular dangerous, now more than ever we have to tell the story about our first generation of cuba who came here and fled that regime. larry: congresswoman kat cammack, thank you for joining us, it's good to see i'm elizabeth macdonald needed vermont to "the evening edit", thank you so much for watching we hope you have a good evening and join us again tomorrow night. larry: hello everyone, welcome to "kudlow", i am larry kudlow, critical race theory is the rage among far left progressive intellectuals and at least part of it is permeated to mainstream ceos and others, who really should know better. systemic racism and crt along with racial equity have become the diagnosis and the solution, and other words we need more
