9:04 am
conference this afternoon. any idea what he will say? can you put in plain english what he's likely to say? lauren: he will repeat what he said in july, quote, inflation has risen reflecting transitory factors and he will add i'm watching the events in china. this is contributing to the gyrations we've seen in the stock market. it is an excuse for him to do nothing. he has more cover because of the china story, disappointing jobs number we got for august. i intend to taper, he will say that, but no timeline for when they begin the taper. stuart: that was a very good explanation. straightforward, plain english, that is pretty good. look who is here now. shah gilani. do you think the federal
9:05 am
reserve will continue to support the stock market as they have been doing for some time? >> i agree with everything lauren said. they don't have a dual mandate. they have three mandates. the third mandate is to do no harm, supporting them when there's a dip. based on monday's a lot of there will be a little bit nervous about any communication that comes out of the meeting this afternoon. i don't think they will talk about tapering other than suggesting visited in november. i don't think they will do anything again. they have the cover of everyone in china. they will do no harm and will be consistently positive for capital markets forever. stuart: is the situation contains? has china put a lid on it? >> absolutely not. it is the front burner worry for me in terms of contagion. we don't know whatever payment was made on the onshore bond that had interests coming due. the offshore bond which is a 5 year note, $85 million in

9:09 am
>> he is a week communicator. he never takes questions. families won't let him ask questions. for the white house staff to take a head of state, boris johnson, and cut him off midsentence was an embarrassment. president biden take 0 questions. president biden campaign that we are going to return to normal. i don't care what you think of donald trump, he should have been winning a war for his openness and transparency because he would have sat all day and answered - stuart: it undermines his leadership. you can't think on your feet and into legitimate questions from the median he does undermine the concept of leadership. >> one of your greatest ally sitting by your side, the president of the united states oriented three questions. stuart: i democrats beginning to turn on president biden because of his handling of patients at the border. are they turning?
9:10 am
>> they are turning because the american people are seeing it as they heard from president biden and kamala harris that everything is fine down there, nothing going wrong. day after day we see pictures getting more horrific, communities are seeing the impact, homeland security importing these people into the heartland, members of congress particularly on the democratic side of the aisle i feeling pressure from their constituents, they are fed up with it. kamala harris is nowhere to be seen and it is a human tragedy that is totally avoidable. stuart: vice president kamala harris will be on the view friday. but you can't wait for that. >> there are hard-hitting questions. stuart: that is the friendliest audience on the planet, friendliest group of questions anyway. you are all right, thanks for joining us. trying to keep a smile on your

9:17 am
and and what are we supposed to do instead? >> donate them. wealthy nations continue to donate vaccines with low vaccination rates reiterating their colin a moratorium against boosters through the end of the year with 14% of the population. you have the fda, the advisory panel to the fda, in high risk situations. >> donate to somebody else. >> the cdc, can still spread among the vaccinated. not much incentive to get vaccinated.
9:18 am
that is not very good, is it. >> there are breakthrough infections, the delta variant, there is more of it around, more particles. even if you are vaccinated you can carry it for a briefer time and you can spread it and get mildly ill but that's not the same thing as going in the hospital with this, not the same as wildly spreading it or being a superspreader. the vaccine has an enormous advantage, the vaccine stands down almost to 0 your chances of being hospitalized, but remains to be seen is how long it lasts and before i came on, you don't need to give away all of our shots in lieu of boosters. we can do both. we've shown that, we can help the rest of the world.
9:19 am
to manufacture vaccines overseas, that is the key. we can send vaccines out and one reason that helps us is we don't end up with more variants emerging. we have to vaccinate the world but we have to look at where the vaccine start to wear off and went to give the boosters. stuart: i want to move on to another subject we have been trying, iphone features that help detect cognitive decline. you are a doctor. what do you think of that? >> artificial intelligence, this verges on it, is a useful tool, but not for self-diagnosis. a useful tool for doctors to be aware of, as long as it is beamed over to me. and when it comes to depression let me make this easy for you.
9:20 am
the whole country is depressed because of the pandemic and the economic impact, don't need an apple to tell you that, ultimately. stuart: self-diagnosis is the bane of your existence. anyone who feel sick, put your symptoms in and up to different ideas what to do about it and you are the doctor in the middle, you hate it. >> i don't hate it but sort through it. everybody is an expert. i've been studying pandemics would everybody think they know what the virus is or coming down the pike, whether they need a mask, they are not asking anyone and that is a dangerous situation. >> is there another variant on the way.
9:21 am
>> the delta variant is efficient at spreading. as long as it is this contagious for another variant to outcompete it has to be more transmissible and that is hard to believe, has to do with how easily it spreads. this is so easily, it has the market, start with a mixed metaphor, has the market for a while. stuart: your position is vaccinated. that is where you are coming from? >> business has a right, if a businesses get vaccinated so we feel safe, there is on the level, should not becoming from the federal government. >> thanks for joining us. on a related note, fda approved drug for gout could help in the fight against covid.

9:27 am
we are ever going to see, the last dip is straight up, are you forecasting that? >> this is the last opportunity to buy the dip, before the market starts to go in the other direction. looking at the options market it is extremely bearish, we haven't seen this much in months. when you see it crowding, so bearish, we are set up for short-term rip rally which is a short squeeze. and and that is my opportunity when to start reducing risks. and a by market is different
9:28 am
story, and the spreads are telling a different story. and and i don't think that is going to happen. we will see a short-term rip and we will sell that. all bets are off, we think they are more downside risk at play. stuart: trying to summarize. if the fed does not disappoint today, short-term market goes up sharply. you will be selling into that rally. we will head south at some point like october and november. is that a reasonable summary? >> exactly right. the best guess is mid-october to end of october we need positioning for defense and at
9:29 am
that time as an investor, difficult to do this but it is about patience and waiting for the opportunity to buy double digit drop we are going to see in my opinion over the next couple quarters. stuart: would you advise younger investors, anybody under 55, or 60, would you advise - i want to stay out of that group. would you advise those younger investors to sell or stick with what you've got for the long-term? >> i'm a big believer that your portfolio should always be active and the fundamentals are pointing to a massive drawdown and you are out there, take advantage of the opportunity we should get because if you have massive profits the last few years there's nothing wrong with taking some off of the table. risk management is something

9:43 am
i am betting there is a big surge in bookings. >> it was astronomical, shocking in some cases, version atlantic bookings increased 600% compared to the prior week, the most common root, europe to new york followed by orlando, miami and vegas. as research interests, british airways saw 2000% increase for trips around think giving time and buying hundred% for trips around christmas time. they need the money and they are going to get it. stuart: on recent programs we've shown you this, the outrageous price of gasoline at the only gas station here in california, that is one station, $6.74. overall california's are paying an average price for regular of $4.39 way above the price anyplace else.
9:44 am
gas buddies's patrick, why is gas so much more expensive in california? >> you layer all the bureaucracy together, the taxes, cap and trade which is basically carbon management program, special types of gas where the rest of the us is back, winter gasoline, california requiring the more expensive california mandated gasoline for another month, in some cases to the end of october. all that put together leads to what we are seeing, no one comes close to california, hawaii is just on the cusp of $4 so the next closest to california in the pacific, $0.40 a gallon cheaper in hawaii. stuart: energy prices across the board, going up significantly this winter, is that accurate in your opinion? >> look at natural gas which is what many are focusing on and many of the same issues setback oil production thinking of
9:45 am
hurricane ida, not only shutdown the gulf of mexico oil production, loss of 35 million barrels of crude oil the shutdown of gas production. keep in mind lots of natural gas is being produced by oil producers, the benefit of that is they yield natural gas but in many cases they have been greatly slowed down leading to injections of natural gas that are behind normal this time of year. defending what you are filling up with especially heating oil and natural gas will be pricier this winter. stuart: we would like to use you as an economic indicator. last time you were here you told us the demand for gasoline had come down in each of the preceding four weeks. we took that as an indicator of a slight slowing in the economy. the downtrend in gas demand continuing? >> it has. last week, a lesser than expected, one%, basically on
9:46 am
par, the trend micro continue. we saw saturday a 4% increase versus prior saturday. some of this you have the fall travel taking place as the least start to change and sporting events on weekends but i would expect those trends to continue to lead to a slow decline in gasoline. stuart: i live in new jersey and pay $3.20 for regular, right around the national average. you think i might be paying $4 a gallon by the end of the year? >> that would be a grinch style christmas gift, that would be another way and by the end of the year we may get back under the $3 a gallon market. stuart: under $3 by the end of the year? >> we could get there. there's a lot of offices the delay the return to work so that is a lot of commuting demand that gasoline is in there this year.

10:03 am
shows up the green dilemma. they demand we use nat-gas as we pay through the nose to huddle in our homes. you should see the panic in europe. the british warn about rolling blackouts for heaven's sake. the germans are under russia's thumb. they are not putting enough gas in the pipeline in europe. it has doubled this year in europe. doubled this year. president biden here closed the keystone pipeline. new york does not allow any new pipelines across the state. we can't drill on federal lands. nat-gas prices here at seven year highs. are voters okay with this? we don't get a chance to vote directly on a climate agenda, you know. we're left in the hands of bureaucrats that attend the conferences around agree in our

10:05 am
shortly after that meeting. johnson met with president biden in the oval office, masked up again. then following that meeting johnson tweeted out this photo he and biden in the oval maskless. a little confusing? liz peek joins us this morning. all right, johnson had covid. all three of them have been vaccinated yet we've got this mixed messaging on masking. it seems like it is typical of the whole administration. you're laughing. it is not real funny you know for the rest of us. >> you know, honestly this isn't confused. what isn't confused in the biden white house. the mask issue is totally theater, stuart. the can walk into a restaurant totally masked. you sit down cheek to jowl with other diners, you take off the mask you can't eat with it on.
10:06 am
can you tell me that the virus can't jump around between people eating? i think the masks have some efficacy and i think they have been helpful in some communities but everything about the messaging from this white house on masks, on vaccines is so problematic and by the way it is serious it means that a lot of americans look at these messages, they say why should i get vaccinated if i still have a wear a mask? remember that was something that people were asking several weeks ago. the biden white house had not come out clean about about the possibility of reinfection. they're suppressing numbers of breakthrough cases. i know number of people have breakthrough reinfection. we never hear about that. i think it's a mess. that is why biden's approval ratings on coronavirus handling as well as everything else is through the floor now and upside down, negative. stuart: i will go further than that, liz, it is confusing, yeah, i got that. i think it's a failure of
10:07 am
leadership. am i too strong on that? >> no, not at all. where is the leadership? i'm really glad you talked about the natural gas crisis because all day yesterday my head was exploding. joe biden goes to the u.n. and mostly talks about climate change even as the real problem in europe, stuart, which you didn't mention, is that it hasn't been windy. europe thrown all the energy resources into wind towers. guess what? wind does not always blow. so in the past several years on occasions like this they have resorted to burning lignite to make up for lost energy because of not having enough wind power. lignite is possibly the dirtiest fuel own earth. that is why some of these countries in europe have not met their paris climate accord agreements. guess what, they're not going to. stuart: they're not going to. china won't either or get targets. liz peek, thank you very much for being here. >> thank you, stuart. stuart: move on to jamie dimon,
10:08 am
top banker in america, most famous banker. jamie dimon says the federal reserve could be forced into a sharp move next year. what exactly is the sharp move and why are they going to be forced into it? lauren: hiking interest rates and pulling back stimulus because inflation might prove not to be transitory. at the high prices don't ease, this is a quote from dimon, the fed can't always be proactive. i mean sometimes they're going to have to be reactive. meaning the fed could be forced to hike rates next year to counter inflation. powell and co published forecast for rates in a few hours. look at fedex numbers. the labor shortage hit earnings by $450 million. up front cost, paying workers more money. the cost of having problems throughout the system because you don't have workers to deal with it or supplies that you need. >> dimon saying, got to deal with inflation, probably next year. that means higher interest
10:09 am
rates. fascinating. fed chair jerome powell will hold a press conference 2:30 eastern this afternoon. that follows the decision-making process. 2:30. watch out. bob doll with us, obviously question, will the federal reserve continue to support the markets because i think it has been very supportive of the markets so far. will that continue? >> the fed has been the market's best friend for quite some time and they eventually will become the stock market's worst enemy. it's a process. it will take a cowell years. we move from reduce the rate of growth of the money supply. they have done that. tapering will be next. finally they will raise rates. as you and i talked many times all the inflation we have, not all of it is transitory. some of it's real. we put an inflation paper out across markets arguing the era of 0 to 2% inflation is over. doesn't mean we'll see high inflation but not zero to two.
10:10 am
if it is 2 1/2 or 3 on sustained basis, that has a lot of negative consequences for financial markets. stuart: i believe you're still expecting a five to 10% pullback on the stock market in the relatively near future, sometime later this year, october, november, time. you still on with that? >> still on, stuart, although on monday, around 2:30 at the low on the day we were actually down 5% from the high of just a couple weeks ago. so we've had a 5%er. might it go back into that territory and probe a little bit lower? i wouldn't be surprised. as you know i'm not arguing for a bear market. i'm saying the market is tired and entitled to a rest. we have a bunch of fundamental issues that would support a pause. stuart: but by next year if we start seeing rate increases as jamie dimon is suggesting there, by next year, will it be time to sell stocks? >> probably to back off some. i mean the obvious is if rates go up, bond prices go down.
10:11 am
so you need to be very careful about how much you have in fixed income. stocks will be a mixed bag. some stocks will benefit from the strong economy and good earnings but all of them will have a evaluation headwind if in fact interest rates move up starting with the fed and out the yield curve. stuart: we used to have that expression, wall street climbing the wall of worry. i think it is doing exactly that right now. climbing the wall of worry. >> we got plenty to worry about. the fed, the circus in washington, d.c., on fiscal policy. the slowing economic earnings growth and the list goes on. stuart: indeed it does. bob doll, always good. thanks for joining us. we'll see you soon. thanks so much. now this is an extraordinaire remember story right here, house democrats stripped money that was going to israel's missile defense, the iron dome? the democrats taken a billion dollars out of that support for their missile defense system. lauren, i need more on this
10:12 am
because that's outrageous. lauren: it's a first. it's a first. shows you the infighting in the democratic party, billion dollars dedicated to iron dome, a defense system designed to protect rockets midair to protect israelis from hamas and others, it was removed from the spending bill to appease the squad. house majority leader steny hoyer, introduce a separate bill, stand-alone bill to get the funding for the iron dome. you remember the tweet heard 'round the world back in 2019 when representative omar said the relationship between israel and the u.s. is all about the benjamins. stuart: that is absolutely outrageous. frankly i think it borders very strongly on anti-semitism, right the heart of the democratic party. lauren: snub our ally israel. stuart: when we can use that technology, which is the best technology in the world for missile defense.

they release. this is shell game. border patrol releases some haitians. transport to i.c.e. offices to get released all over the country. he has the data. that data is available every day. they don't want to tell the american people the truth. what irritates me about him, the border is secure around closed. 350,000 got wais, that is not a secure bored, right? hundreds of thousands of, thundershowers released every day into the communities. that is not a secure border. when you see haitians moving back and forth from mexico to get supply and food. that is not a secure border. they have moved so many resources in the del rio rio grande valley, stuart, the other day you have the time shoots, assignment sheets. 224 miles of border were unguarded. nobody was there. stuart: good lord. >> you know the cartels are having a field day with drugs, trafficking, women, sex trafficking of women. fentanyl coming across. 92,000 overdose deaths, dea says come i as cross the southwest

hispanic homeownership? >> stuart, one of the reasons is median age of hispanics and latinos. it is pretty young, 29 years old. which puts them at prime home buying age. another reason are programs like ba home loans that helps veterans buy homes. veterans, just like andre who we have here, he is a veteran the marine corporation. thank you so much for your service, second of all congratulations on the new home purchase you have seen behind us. you took advantage of the one aspect of va home loans which requires no down payment. how big and meaningful of a difference did that make when it came to buying this home. >> first, thank you for having me. no, but the va pretty much helped me where it was money was tight. i was by myself. i'm a shingle father. it was able to proviewed the home and future expenses that might come with the new home. reporter: we know it is making a different in a lot of hispanic veterans lives. look at some of the stats.

they're paying. stuart: boris laid on thick, whatever the fair share is you got to be paying. >> something is coming. there is 2% digital tax in the uk and other european nations. it is not for amazon directly. amazon said we increased prices for customers to get around it. stuart: bezos is smart businessman. federal reserve chairman jerome powell, this is a crucial statement we're going to get later on this afternoon, about 2:30 eastern, he will be speaking. this could move the market. edward lawrence in d.c. edward any clue what is we can expect to hear from him? please, can you tell us in plain, straightening like, if you can? reporter: not fed speak? stu, we're looking out with a couple of things, statement at 2:00 eastern time and news conference you mentioned at 2:30 eastern time by the fed chairman. we expect federal reserve chairman jerome powell to offer some clues when the tapering starts, when the fed stops buying treasurys and mortgage-backed securities.
10:45 am
we're looking to see if he lays out how fast the tapering will happen. on the second point we might not get much clarity. powell said in the past the fed will move in a deliberate fashion not to rock the markets. i interviewed st. louis fed president james bullard on your show on august 27th over the phone. he is a more aggressive voice on tapering. listen from august, when he said about asset purchases around when they should happen. >> as i said to be at the end of the first quarter, by the time we get over there into the first half of next year we're going to have a better view whether inflation's really going to moderate in 2022 or not. >> so he wants to see the last purchases in march of 2022. so bullard says if inflation does not moderate, then the fed will have to be more aggressive in 2022 with the rate hikes and that's the other thing that we're looking at, that dot plot. the clues will be to see when we might get some of those rates
10:46 am
increases. last time it was released there were no rate increases in 2022 but some in 2023. two of them. we also did not see this amount of inflation. the fed projected inflation much lower. fed might be forced to act faster if inflation continues at this place. stuart: edward, we'll watch the live performance at two 30 eastern here. edward, thanks. costco warning about delays in essential household items. what is that all about? lauren: toilet paper shortage is back. you can still buy toilet paper at costco, let me be clear. if you place online order, some customers are getting emails, there will be some processing delays here. some costcos are limiting number of toilet paper rolls you can actually buy. this is stockpiling and delta variant, the fact that proctor & gamble, they're the biggest producer of toilet paper in the country, they're running their factories 24/7 to make
10:47 am
enough as we stock it up. stuart: anecdotally i heard there is shortage of labor at cost coast as well. that is hurts them. lauren: heard from workers and pictures on social media. when you're in one of the big aisles of costco, line of carts with the items in the carts but they don't have the staff to go to get the item on the shelf. if you're a customer, this happened to me. do you take from the cart? how do you handle that? i take from the cart. stuart: happening all over, shortage of workers. really affects things. markets, please, look again, keep saying it the rally is holding thus far this wednesday american -- morning. stuart: appears the media started to turn on president biden. watch this. >> i think he has a pretty big credibility crisis on his hand. >> what are we doing to justify or explain what appears to be very bad behavior on our part now? stuart: martha maccallum will join me in the 11:00 hour. why is the media beginning to
10:48 am
turn on president biden? wasn't expecting that, but march that may be able to explain it. two brothers return home to montana to chase down a lot of treasure. "american gold," new show debuting on fox business's new prime lineup. the stars of that show will give us a preview right after this. ♪.

it out, process it, put it in our pocket. that is now how it works. we have some teasers that have some gold but we've got a lot more work to do to develop it. stuart: do you know how much gold your grandfather and your uncles took out of that property? >> well, our grandfather and our uncles didn't own the property. that's the beauty of us being together as brothers when we're retired. we acquired this property, the deeded ground about 12 years ago. we finally have ownership of this legend that came to our grandfather about 100 years ago. so we're going to try to fulfill the family legacy and see if that gold exists where that prospector discovered it and covered it up. stuart: tad and rick dale. we'll watch to see how much gold you come up with on your property. we wish you the best of luck. that will be the new fox business prime lineup, "american gold," westerns 8:00 p.m. eastern. that is them.

11:04 am
they are coming en masse, 200,000 as you say a month. the haitian situation, i am floored, to being appalled at what border agents are doing. if you go to the root cause part of her assignment. haiti has extreme root causes. as she been on the phone with the haitian president? has she been talking about the plate of patient people, there should be some ammo, some organization rather than people rushing the border at our southern border and putting texans, 35,000 population in del rio of texans, 20,000 haitians. can you imagine what it is like living in that town and i feel for these haitian people. they are in squalor. who is running the show? what are we doing? stuart: it is absolute incompetence. the haitians asked the biden team send over the national
11:05 am
guard, send police officers. this is in july and early august. they were falling to pieces then. no response from the biden team. the haitians left. they make their way to the southern border. >> they want to pretend it is not happening. they have the left flank upset that haitians are being mistreated, racial issue that shows system increases in the country. i would point out the extreme covid hypocrisy here. if you are talking how proud we are as a nation of our global vaccination process, 20,000 people. 100,000 vaccines, vaccinated these people. this would help when you go back to your home country and the place you are relocating to if that is what you are doing,
11:06 am
give them all vaccines. instead of ignoring it and psaki said they are only here temporarily. we know that is not the case, and tested vaccinated. stuart: how do you feel about this? the media looks like they are starting to turn on president biden. >> a pretty big credibility crisis on his hands. pretty bad behavior - >> thousands of people. what is the reticence, but is clearly a crisis. stuart: i did to know why the media is turning on the president at this point? >> a very good question. impossible to ignore the failures in afghanistan and what is happening at the border, you would ever be a reporter with your salt if several months into the store you don't recognize what is
11:07 am
going on. they look at biden's numbers and see what is happening. another white house reporter, talking how biden's relationship with france fail then looking like trump is at the border. there's dissatisfaction outside the ranks of press that has been favorable. stuart: they are worried biden will lose the democrats the election in 2022. >> and figure out what happens after that. what is plan b? stuart: i don't think there is one. we are watching you on the story, 3:00 pm eastern. back to the markets please because the rally has extended itself. we are up 122 on the nasdaq, 405 on the dow industrials. fed chair powell has the news conference this afternoon, very important for the markets which we will be watching closely. kenny will be watching and he
11:08 am
joins us right now. will the fed rock the boat this afternoon as we are trying to recover from a financial panic? >> i don't want to think they will rock the boat but a lot is going to depend on what the.process is. the upon not worried about the taper conversation is because they are talking about that, if anybody sing in a closet going they never heard of that before that is another conversation. i am not worried about whether it is in january or whatever. it will be all about what has happened since june. more members now moving towards an interest rate increase in mid-2022 versus the end of 2022 or the beginning of 2023 and that could spook the market. i don't think the market faces it at the moment because it is strongly, if that is the message, markets will be
11:09 am
spooked. stuart: the market is doing well at the moment. do you think the ever grand concerns have been laid to rest. >> how they are going to make one payment tomorrow, the other two, they didn't talk about but leading a lot of people to suspect they negotiated postponing it versus putting it in default so they settled it down and they pumped $14 billion into the economy suggests they need to get in front of this. they found it. the moment people were talking about, never thought it was going to be. stuart: what are you telling your clients? all be negatives around, what about evergrand, what about
11:10 am
spending, all of these potential negatives? what does a guy like you tell his clients at this moment? >> depends who you are as a client. i'm telling you want to get the 30-year-old because you have 30 or 40 years to go. if you are 60-year-old your in the generation that you and i are in you might be having a different conversation but it is not going to look the same anyway as a 30-year-old in terms of exposure you are into but what i say to anybody is this is not the time to panic. look what happened on monday when people started to panic. three days later we are back up, the trendline resisted again. it has to be about focusing on the long-term making sure your portfolio is well-balanced and well diversified and comfortable with your holdings and if you are there is no reason anybody should panic. we have a good advisor, a solid plan, you are not going to chase the high growth rate, you

11:12 am
and you could choose to share with concert venues, airlines, anyone who wants to see a vaccine passport. these are changes in apple's operating system, facebook is talking about this was they underreported at performance by 15% in the third quarter because privacy updates in the ipad and the iphone, apple has users in to be tracked. that is how so many advertisers make money. the advertisers like facebook to execute their big plan. stuart: that is one of the reasons facebook is down today nearly 4%. president biden just met with boris johnson with and without facemasks. kind of mixed messaging. nigel farage will take that on shortly and we are facing a

we should show you more often. it is a beautiful building. 77 degrees. let's get to politics, president biden wants to raise the rate on long-term capital gains to 39.6% and wants the top corporate tax rate to go to 28%. hillary vaughan on capitol hill. those rates appear to be higher than in other countries. >> reporter: and a lot of other countries when you do the math looking asked what president biden wants to raise the corporate tax rate to 20% that is just the baseline in the us because a lot of states have additional corporate taxes on top of that so the true rate is higher than that, a 20% hike is hired a lot of countries. minority leader mitch mcconnell blasted biden's plan to jack up the corporate tax rate, a smothering wet blanket thrown onto an economy that is struggling to fully recover because of the inflation and worker shortages the democrats policies of at least. under biden's proposal to raise corporate tax rate to 20% on the federal level that puts the us behind asia and europe but
11:19 am
also behind china who has a corporate tax rate of 25%. biden's push to hike capital gains to 39.6% would be higher than china but only as a 20% - the white house is downplaying higher taxes on businesses will trickle down to workers, less likely pushed out an op-ed by former senator harry reid who set on corporate taxation we can raise the rate of lowest corporate tax rate the country has seen since world war ii and until donald trump's giant corporate giveaway, the lobbyists will complain. this will oust their corporate clients to protect diminish contribute more but these investments will make the us more competitive, not less. not every tax expert agrees with that. the tax foundation says workers bear the burden, 70% of corporate income taxes through their wages and employment and consumers could be hit too. the national bureau of economic research found 31% of the corporate tax falls down to
11:20 am
consumers. stuart: trump's giveaway which produced the best economy we had in decades, where are they coming from? that was my editorial comment, not yours. the house approved the democrats bill to avert a government shutdown and suspend the debt limit. it was a partyline vote. from wisconsin, if we don't raise the debt ceiling, the treasury secretary says we are looking at an economic catastrophe. isn't this a story of who gets the blame for government shutdown? you will shutdown the government by not allowing a debt ceiling rise. the government will shut down you are interested avoid the blame. >> democrats can move the debt ceiling by themselves, they want publicans to come along for the ride but don't want any fiscal responded to me. they don't want any control on
11:21 am
their spending, they are looking at putting $3.5 trillion spending, $1 trillion for infrastructure, they don't want limits. they don't want republicans to negotiate a debt limit, they need to come together and have a serious conversation about their out-of-control spending. stuart: they could pass the debt ceiling raise immediately. it is in the senate. they've got the votes to do it. they could do it but they won't because they want you involved as well. >> they don't want to move through a reconciliation process. they don't want to put a number in front of the american people to show what the debt is increasing to and they want to bring republicans along for the ride on the debt ceiling vote but refusing to negotiate with republicans on their out-of-control spending. they are moving us in the wrong direction. i'm concerned about the out-of-control spending put forward by pelosi and biden. we need to get it under control, step what is have a conversation as relates to the debt ceiling.
11:22 am
stuart: the $3 trillion deal, none of that money goes to the border patrol. how can that be at times like this? >> priorities of nancy pelosi and president biden are not the priorities of the american people. it is telling we have an absolute crisis at the southern border playing out on our tv day in and day out yet $3.5 trillion bill since no money to address the crisis at the border, the priorities of president biden and pelosi are not will be a hearing from people day in and day out. stuart: you will vote against raising the debt limit? >> in particular in this time when there is no control and spending by the democrats, no limit to what pelosi and biden want to spend. we can't stand idly by and allow them to have a blank check as relates to spending. stuart: it is an important day, appreciate it. back to the markets. the nasdaq is up 130, the s&p

yes side. i was outspent into one, they turned it into a referendum on donald trump, and the republicans. none of the outside is like obama and harris and bernie sanders said one word about his record on crime and homelessness, shut the state down in a more draconian way, and recalled. and the rolling brown outs, poor water management and republican takeover, all demolition it worked. stuart: one of the issues was the high cost of energy and gasoline. we got reports which suggest the cost of energy will go up some more. gas prices may go up more than what is on your screen right now. having said that if you
11:35 am
campaigned on that, which will get worse this winter, will you consider running again next year when newsom is up on reelection? >> i am giving that consideration but there are other issues as well. the la times called me, the blackface of white supremacy, i was called everything but a black david duke by the la times. politico was vicious, cnn was vicious. i was accused of being sexist but when rose mcgowan, the actress made an allegation the gavin newsom's wife called her before the harvey weinstein story blue up because she alleged she was raped by harvey weinstein, gavin newsom's wife called mcgowan to get her to back off the story, we held a press conference, none of the media even bothered to report on this. i support elder, she never stumped for me.
11:36 am
i was attacked viciously by the media, characterized as a black extremist, the blackface of white stability, gavin newsom did not campaign on his record. the outsiders yelled republican takeover and showing the picture of myself connected to donald trump and that won the day. i'm not sure what a rematch would produce. stuart: i'm not sure a republican could win a statewide election in california either that next time you are on we will posit that question. can republican when a statewide election in california? the formerly golden state of california. you are all right, come back soon. >> we need to restore the california dream and i am not leaving the state at least not yet. stuart: there's room in my house on the east coast. i am staying on california. the ports in california facing a huge record backlog. what does that mean for the rest of it? ashley: expect the cost of goods and services to go up. you may want to start christmas

shopping right now. a record 70 cargo ship scaring everything from furniture to electronics and toys are facing delays at the ports in california which handle 40% of the nation's imports, shipping traffic up 50% from pre-pandemic levels but the ports artform creating a huge backlog and to make matters worse, no shortage of trucks and drivers to every 16 truckloads of goods, only truck available, that says it all. that is leading to huge concerns that some store shelves could be empty during the holiday shopping season. you have been warned. stuart: it means inflation too. there is one more for you. it is not for you. hold on. sorry about that. not yet. mm a star connor mcgregor knows

playing out. stuart: let's talk about the nationwide bus driver shortage. so bad some school districts had to cancel classes. madison allworth, parents in madison want to call in the national guard. >> they are open to it, looking for solutions to this problem. right now in new york, a shortage of 15% of schoolbus drivers, they are getting home late and new york is not alone. half of america school districts describe the bus driver shortage as severe or desperate. how desperate? massachusetts has already activated the national guard to get kids to school. governors need 250 personnel to drive those kids and other
11:45 am
places trying to find options to get those kids to school. in philadelphia parents are offered $300 a month instead of relying on schoolbus think. when the pandemic started and schools closed many bus drivers who have commercial licenses went to jobs for delivery services and those who work in industry say they aren't coming back and should have seen this coming. >> that was the perfect storm. that combination decimated our industry to a point of no return. nobody knew this was going to happen, you shutdown an entire industry of people. >> it is desperate. the schools like you mentioned are back to online learning because they are struggling to get kids physically to the classroom. stuart: thank you very much. unlike president biden, britain's by minister boris johnson actually wants to speak

11:51 am
anywhere near question time. nigel farage is laughing. is with us. what do you think boris made of biden's inability to answer questions? >> the whole scene was unprofessional and at times inaudible because they were wearing their facemasks so you couldn't make out what they were actually saying. i don't know how shocked boris was the country on the side of the pond can't believe the leader of the free world, the elected president of the usa, is not allowed to take questions and that is making british media for the first time promptly asked a question, is this man fit and capable to be the leader of america and the free world. we are quite shocked. as you know in this country prime ministers are questioned in the house of commons openly
11:52 am
every week, the prime minister's questions which is a great piece of theater, questioned by the media, we can't believe president biden is not allowed to answer questions and today we learned even the few sentences he spoke in that get together were scripted for him word by word and read by him. it really is shocking that america is led by this man. stuart: does this mask, does this work for us? this mixed messaging over masks is coming from the white house, vice president harris took a picture with boris with masks on. then boris and biden took a picture with their masks on. and the president and prime minister were both wearing masks again during the meeting and took them off. now they are close to each
11:53 am
other, no masks. this is a message for brits. this is not how you message. >> it is incoherent. it doesn't add up. you juxtapose one picture with the other you ask what is going on but that is the impression i get with the whole administration that it is all over the place and that is why is losing support in the polls. no one knows what it stands for. i have to say in terms of choreography, in terms of imagery, in terms of professionalism, the biden administration showed themselves in a bad light. in terms of substance what we really learned is president biden does not like america's closest ally and have been your closest ally will over hundred years. he doesn't like us. there is no progress on a trade
11:54 am
deal, no comprehension of what has happened, when we are cut off from the uk and before boris johnson gets on the plane back to london a stab in the back as biden announces a vaccine deal with the european union that doesn't include the uk. we know where we stand, that biden doesn't like us, he is pursuing the philosophy of obama which is if we voted brexit as far as he was concerned we are at the back of the line. i'm sad that is where we are, not just culturally but historically the in business terms we are still the biggest foreign investor in the us, the us is still the biggest foreign investor in the uk. we share so much in terms of business, so much more we could do and yet president biden is prepared to put his own prejudice ahead of the
