master mandate rule. school officials caught barricading students in school gymnasium. threatening children not wearing masks with trespassing. a new judge ruling against the no mask policy in virginia, we have got it. and a push back on weak on crime d.a. in san francisco and los angeles. and look at this, a stunning and dramatic reversal today. the manhattan d.a. now backtracking after a public backlash. he had downgraded felonies into misdemeanors. changing his tune now. and then a senate report the white house abandon over 9000 americans in afghanistan as a taliban took over. but the white house is telling voters it was just 100 -- 150. plus the pentagon investigation into the 2021 terror attack that killed 13 u.s. troops. and gop lawmakers warning the border crisis is still out of control for the white house does not even know the number of illegal aliens supported.

this is human smugglers and human traffickers are finding new and discerning ways to get illegal migrants across the board. thanks for joining us i am elizabeth macdonald "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ we began with the u.s. markets ending mostly higher today after the january jobs report topic 93 bucks a barrel earlier today for the first time again and more than seven years. now the president did tout job number city take a victory lap for a pop as they walked on destroyed more than 22 million jobs for the u.s. economy killed more than three and have jobs short versus pre-pandemic. economist said this is a typical boost to see around the world after such a traumatic job destruction. plus good comparisons based on government revisions to the downside for prior months. now the percentage actively looking for work this is important it's about

inflation. the worst since 1967 for the government pouring money into a system for low numbers of people lower are looking for work. edward lawrence had much more, edwards. >> will liz, a big surprise in the jobs report. the economy at about 467,000 jobs in the month of january for the unemployment rate ticked up to 4%. these numbers prompted the president to proclaim america is back for for many americans wages are up this year. in january, wage increases were strong across the board and that is good. would like to continue to keep wages growing part and we need even more high-paying jobs. >> he is trying to take credit for it however failed to mention the fact that inflation, at 7%, far outpaced wage again as people see the bills going up what they pay for in gas and food going up, the present still not willing to say we can move on from the pandemic and get rid of a mask mandates or other restrictions, something echoed by the labor secretary. >> i still neglect be very

careful as we continue to move forward in 2022. i'm hopeful as this year goes on eases the burden when it comes to living with the pandemic freedom hoping for having a very different conversation by the end of this year but unfortunately right now many people are tired of living with the pandemic but we still have to be careful but. >> the report still shows some weakness bradys to the trend of jobs over the past four months going down just with bigger numbers in those months. the number beggars because the labor statistics revive the benchmarked month to march of 2020 when that changes all of the numbers after that date, liz. elizabeth: edward lawrence think it's much for joining us great to see a good reporting that prince could check on the polls the president is now ten percentage points less unpopular than jimmy carter at the same point in their term. also gallup now says only about a third of americans are satisfied with the economy. that is down 68% in 2020 joining cell congressman brian fitzpatrick from how house

foreign affairs former white house counsel advisors affair, connor spent sit tight for a second i want to ask thomas about this. do we see the same pattern oversees about dramatic after shutdown? >> i think the white house wants to sell this as a biden versus trump that's pretty laughable. i don't if they got the memo there was a covid pandemic that happened in 2021. we see it pretty much across the country's about 225 roughly million jobs lost in 2020. those countries are irrespective of government changing or not. what the administration change or not those countries are all picking up as well. >> we hear you, tomas but also the seven day average of new covered cases dropping more than 50% since peaking in the january. 900,000 americans dead from covid. congressman the olympics in china began today.

human rights groups criticize the whitewashing of this communist regime. what was your take on speaker policies athletes to state silent out of safety what is your reaction to that? >> thanks for have me elizabeth. it is ridiculous. but we got word of that in congress were so upset it was like a gut punch we are the country of freedom and liberty into think the way we want to sprint and the freedom to speak our mind. to think the u.s. athletes in beijing who may see or hear things that are inconsistent with our values and not being free to speak up told that by our government leaders is completely unacceptable. elizabeth: let's take a listen to the soundbite because congressman we are also hearing about reporters live on camera in the middle of their coverage pulled off the cameras by chinese security

forces, let's listen to the speaker, this is her initial remarks she is doubling down again today on what she said, watch. >> i would say to our athletes, you are there to compete. do not risk incurring the anger of the chinese in government because they are ruthless. i know there is a temptation on the part of some to speak out while they are there. i respect that. but i also worry about what the chinese government might do. to their reputation, to their family. elizabeth: tomas we have not ever seen a congressman talk like this much less the speaker. why is nancy pelosi talking now about this? >> i think it is a fall along where it is okay to criticize u.s. companies but not criticize china. i just feel bad to be honest.

i don't see the international olympic committee is a private organization trying to organize this competition across the world. incomes all the wonderful governments including the chinese and many others basically sabotage the competition. our tax dollars are really great at work here. kind of sabotage this whole competition. >> and congressman, the speaker is also going after companies making money off of the olympics. your word on that? >> it is too little too late. to her, giving this advice to our athletes to she gave her same advice to athletes who protest here in the united states? this is the entire reason beijing should never had the olympics to begin with. many of us in the foreign affairs committee including our chairman have been speaking out loudly against this. asking for the international olympic committee to rebid the 2022 olympics.

to award away from beijing the speaker said nothing about until today. the day the opening kickoff begins. elizabeth: why she talking about it now why is the speaker talking about it now? why now? is she trying to take advantage of the event of the democrats have a bill on china? major network spent a total of 13 minutes last year covering china's oppression on minorities including the leakers. we've never seen a speaker speak out like this before in the olympics, why now? was she speaking out now? >> that is a good question but she should have been speaking up months if not years ago when beijing was awarded the olympics they knew this day was coming. we note there are atrocities in their abuse of the uighurs but we know their manipulation and intellectual property theft in effect there solely responsible for the covid-19 outbreak which is killing going on 6 million people worldwide. 900,000 people here at home. and yet they get away with it.

speaking out on the day of the opening ceremonies, too little too late. she should have been joining lake core of us have been begging and pleading our congress to take this up. elizabeth: we know her husband had limousine company deals over there in china. her husband has made tens of millions of dollars big stock trading while she is on the job. so she's kinda been hit with that. your final word on this, tomas? >> i think it is kind of telling and god forbid we criticize the country that gave us this covid pandemic. whether or not distorting a government lab and china's kind of arousal about her and then policies it travel but shutdown domestic travel when they knew they had the virus. so think this is a country that owes a lot to the world right now being afraid of criticizing it is very misguided. elizabeth: congress and brian

scientist and doctor fauci february of 2020 right at the onset of covid-19 in the united states where they said this looks like this was a man made and it had to come from the lab in wuhan. several of the scientist said that there were seven e-mailing doctor fauci doctor collins at different times. three days later, then dr. fauci is a conference call with the scientists. on than 48 hours after the phone call they all signed a paper that said there is no way this could have gone over the wuhan lab. anyone that exists a lab leak theory is obviously a conspiracy theorist barbie want to know what happened over the course of three days to go from this is obviously a lab leak and this appears to be man-made to where this was not a lab leak and this was obviously from a bat to a human. >> does your team did they get

$58 million in research grant money to 202,021 is that true? >> it is true lose. that's one thing we discovered after out the transcribed e-mails they receive substantial grants from the nih rinsing there's anything wrong here were giving scientists an opportunity to come testify. every american wants to know the origination of the coveted team of the fact the democrats will hold a single hearing on that there's no funny business that went on here than come before the committee and tell your side of the story we deserve to know the truth are not going to let up. they can do it now or chilled generate whether republicans have a gavel. they're going to come before this committee and they are going to tell us exactly what is wrong and why they did such

a 180 from this is obviously a lab leak and this was a man-made after this could never have been man-made and a lab leak. >> they never found the animal hosts. they have never found the specifically genome that's in covid-19. in nature. the wuhan lab scientists, and her magazine article she did not cite with the data was behind the genome. when the corresponding data supporting her research it is there. really rapid infectiousness rate of never seen it skyrocket sars and mers did not take off like this. to evolve in nature we would have seen it already we didn't. so that is the point. this such an ill-informed panic the striving policy and also on vaccines and people cannot talk about the side

effects. there are such a shutdown bullying mentality this coming top down. your final word on that? >> remember they lied about using tax dollars to fund gain of function research we found that out the house oversight committee found that out. we also found out is dr. fauci never warned president trump or any of president trump's advisors there are scientists out here early on think this could've been a wuhan lab. the call for the wuhan virus that's not true i could not happen. why didn't they advised president trump that early on a majority of scientists that are there advisors of the office again for the wuhan lab. what change of the course of three days? that is we want to know were not going to let up until we get the answers. affects six got it will have you back on to talk about it congressman. new finds an investigation of

elizabeth: of the welcome back

to the show asra nomani with parents defending education breaches the vice president there. it is great to have you on. so masks for kids in schools. how politicized is this getting? >> oh, it is so political. we all thought critical race theory was a hot button for this issue of masking school is so personal. it does literally touching the faces of every child. and so parents are on fire about this. >> democrats now ramping up for the anti- trump thing? courts we are seeing it's equated to the confederate flag. >> oh my gosh yes. i have no masks but protest at the school board meeting and fairfax county last rape parents were wearing it they're trying to send a message of the all democratic school board that is in power

right now. eight symbol of the northern virginia belt that is in very much the democratic opposition today to the new republican governor young can. we were all watching the election results. we were wondering how were the democrats going to respond to this real surprise went by the republican candidate. over these last weeks, we have seen clearly what the democratic machine is doing is a replication of what happened after the 2016 presidential election. it created a virginia resistance. receipt of the mask issue with the school boards northern virginia including fairfax county filing this lawsuit to make sure and demand masks stay on kid spreading of the big news this afternoon, right? >> yes the judge and arlington the circuit judge said he is going to put a block on --

temporarily on the virginia governor's making max optional. parents should decide now the judges blocking that part is got to that level. the cdc shows do not take into account vaccination rates when comparing schools with masks without masks. the studies are real port. cloth masks don't work everyone was to keep children safe we get it. it is a major fight in your state. i want to talk to you about this the l.a. mayor garcetti crazy he held his breath at the niners game gavin newsom was taken a drink of water the san francisco mayor was there without a mask. so now we have got all of that, right? we've got politicians not wearing masks, break in their own indoor masking rules. we have this mom and fairfax county told her kid cannot go to school without a mask. listen to the sound, watch this. [inaudible]

>> the order went into effect today. i wanted to exercise my right as a parent school board. other acting illegally to not give us those rights. >> they are not allowed to be in school without a mask. >> okay so they are suspended for the day. [inaudible] >> the bottom line is they're not welcome on school property today for not wearing a mask? >> until you arrive your children will be held in it in school restriction situation here at school. it is important that i point out to you that they are not allowed on campus or at loudoun county public school property starting tomorrow it will be considered trespassing. elizabeth: of school officials threaten kids with trespassing and apparently in oakdale california they barricaded students inside a school gymnasium because they were not wearing masks. then apparently officials and

allowed an county, virginia it covered up a sexual assault? moving a student to another school and now he has been charged. >> and parents are noticing for that is the great lesson right now the virginia race was a significant indicator of our sentiment was among public. and what has happened is parents have seen this hypocrisy from the california governor to virginia politicians that are going to bars without masks. but yet the children are masks. it is just heartbreaking press there that mother when she went to try to going to elementary school her name is kerri lucas. she just met me in the parking lot here and brought me one of the signs what is the sign say here? sorry it's upside down. free my smile.

free minds buck smiled mrs. from her children. the other signs of things like parent rates. the courts may have rules on the side of the democrats school board today, they won in the court of law. but they aren't losing in the court of public opinion because you can tell, you know this list from bill march of the truckers in canada, people feel like there is a hypocrisy happening among waiters. they do not want children to be the human shields for their politics. elizabeth: and got it, asra nomani good to see her come back soon okay it's great to spend this friday with you. >> are great liz. elizabeth: were coming out the bottom of the hour. the new potentially push back against a weak on crime d.a. in san francisco and los angeles, for you. dining and reversal from the manhattan d.a. in a new yorker is weak on crime agenda public

the sentencing enhancements for violent crime is hurting the city he is supposed to protect it. >> his office has a responsibility to ensure they are using every measure afforded them as prosecutors with pursuing justice for those that are preying upon others. particularly violent crime and also the chronic offender frequent das office did not respond to our request for comment. but he did say this at his last press conference. >> the reality is that punishment -based approach to the work does not service will be. >> chief michael moore also told us the zero pail policy introduced the courts to reduce the pandemic prison population is emboldening criminals making them think they can just get away with their crimes. >> hours or days later they're back in the community they are a bit bravado like nothing is going to happen to me pray that is very discouraging to a community by. >> when chief moore spoke to us he had just returned from the funeral of lapd officer

fernando, shot dead on the street last month as he looked for a home and which to start his new life with his girlfriend. for liz. >> jonathan hunt, thank you so much for your reporting there. let's bring back into the show former nypd detective he is doctor oscar odom. so sir, it's great to have you back on this good to see you. manhattan district attorney alvin bragg a brig big reversal breaking news in intensive backlash against and for downgrading felonies into misdemeanors. he now says yes, prosecute as felonies robberies involving a gun or knife also gun possession in assaulting police officers. he's now reversing his thoughts on that and position, your reaction to it? >> absolutely should. first like to say rest in peace to detectives rivera and more. they should reverse as stated earlier as a citizen sees

something and say something and he does nothing, then what was the purpose of it all? and the fact is that the men and women and blue are putting their lives on the line every single day answering the call and running toward the danger with them and a man with a gun and he is putting the public at risk. these are the people who voted him into office grade not to do that would be negligent of his duty. elizabeth: and dr. kagan san francisco police chief bill scott he is african-american. he is saying my office we are not going to work anymore with the office of san francisco cases involving cops. he is saying that the d.a. is chronically concealing evidence to hurt police, your thoughts on that? >> see, that person should be removed from their office. once again officers are putting their lives on the line. to be treated in this type of way not only hurts the

officers but the public at large when you do things like this. we are the gatekeepers. we are the people out on the front lines once again running towards danger. for d.a. to do something like that the person definitely should be held accountable. you are also going have the family members are going to start complaining once they see their family members being robbed, being murdered, they're going to restart rising up against us. elizabeth: doctor oscar odom i like your vice president police we asked what's the fix let's look at his reaction by. >> police officers delivered historic crime reduction in the 20 years prior to this huge spike we sound violent crime over the last two years. we have done it before and we can do it again but here's how we delivered we have to actually enforce the rule of law. we have to make sure we are actually prosecuting criminals when they commit crimes. we too have been a mentally prosecute violent crime for someone uses a gun and a crime we should be seeking a maximum

not give them a slap on the wrist and let them back out we certainly should not be given the apr bomb when they pinky promise to show up to court. elizabeth: but doctor the l.a. d.a. said punishment is not always the answer, your thoughts? >> one 100% correct. anything is your job as a prosecutor is to prosecute, not to legislate. if you feel there's something that needs to be changed into a lot they need to go back out there, run for that type of office and see what you can do. when you are in that position you're supposed to have a good job which is to prosecute it do our job. we answer the call, like i always say when he ran with a gun we do not run away. we run toward the call when it says a man with a gun. so talk to us about doing stuff to make sure that we are shown near the gatekeepers in making sure the public is safe. doctor oscar odom always could

. >> is welcome to the show congressman scott perry from house foreign affairs for the congressman was deployed to iraq during his decades of military service it's great to have you on congressman. your reaction to the pentagon report today on its investigation into the bombing outside kabul airport in august of 2021. killed 13 u.s. troops, at least wanted 70 afghans was found as a lone suicide

bomber, your thoughts? >> well, first of all thanks for the opportunity. of course my thoughts are they should not have been there, our troops should not have been in that position to lose their lives. all indicative of the failure of the botched withdrawal of afghanistan. got to tell you the american people have watch the tenure of this commander-in-chief and have learned one thing that he never fails to fail. unnecessary unfortunate loss of lives. the over 9000 people that were left behind the u.s. citizens left behind in afghanistan nothing surprising potential to the american people at this point in the level of failure. he is the commander-in-chief, liz. as a military leader you must lead from the front. with this commander-in-chief has done has left his troops behind on the battlefield, all

the territory those paid paid for by the lives of american service members over a couple decades while he cowered in his foxhole. and the other thing, liz this is another one of the list of lies if you will certainly the administration has difficulty telling truth to the american people whether it's what's happening on the border, happening with the pandemic the department of justice and law-abiding parents and schools. whether it is a january 6, you name it. the american people tired of the administration not being truthful with them. meanwhile secretary's evolving

the service members it's the price of doing business and war. it's the price of incompetence. the supervision of grant commander-in-chief the president keep saying 100 -- 150. secretary of state testified its 10150. as they're down playing in the top spanning a military success went whenever before the history of this country stranded americans. it is the worst u.s. military debacle and a modern u.s. history, ranks up there at the vietnam war. but, it is again they're down playing on the top spanning for even after the murder of u.s. troops. instilling to call evacuation a success but they still went

on camera saying it was a success. routinely qualifying their statements that the americans who were stranded there wanted to stay there. using language they did not want to leave they wanted to stay. who wants to stay when al qaeda and isis is on the march? >> you are absently right it is so disrespectful, don't beat ms. truthful about it. explain what 900,000 to 152 needs to be accountability. elizabeth: but congressman.

also ask is the cia u.s. intelligence that chicken littles, there in the white house afghanistan would fall months ahead of time. still working on an evacuation plan the day kabul fell. how is this an impeachable offense what happened afghanistan? >> it is impeachable by nisbett and the elected office in the nixon administration. he was warned afghanistan was going to fall months prior to it. the intelligence services told him it was going to happen. like i said we all fall short. it's horrifically regrettable site impeachable's lying to the american public that is an impeachable offense in my opinion. elizabeth: congressman scott perry thanks for your service to our country thanks for coming on the show at thank you. gop lawmakers were in the border crisis so out-of-control the white house is not even know the number of illegal aliens deported or

didn't show up for court case. human smugglers and human traffickers are finding new and disturbing ways to get illegal migrants across the border but we are going to break it down next to the former top dhs official chad wolf. keep it here on "the evening edit". >> president biden is lying to the american public. he knows exactly what is taking place but he knows he has caused this problem. seeing blood when you brush or floss can be a sign of early gum damage. new parodontax active gum repair kills plaque bacteria at the gum line. to help keep the gum sealed tight.

elizabeth: joining us now chad wolf is back with those for his former acting dhs secretary chad is great to have you on. senator ron draws a new information coming into his office homeland security does not know the court locations for at least 40000 illegal aliens for the white house release into the u.s. interior. chad that is about 80% of aliens and got a notice to appear but how can they don't know the number? or a location for a number of individuals released into the country on a notice to appear instead i'm sorry noticed your report instead of a notice to appear so dhs has no idea where they're at. they have no idea at which courts are going to show up at at the end of the day. instead of doing at the right way they were overwhelmed at the border. they chose to release these individuals, really not telling them where to show up

but instead using the honor system. what we have seen as they are not showing up in numbers and dhs does not know where they are at. elizabeth: when you are at did your office know where they were in the court locations for these individuals? >> will surely did. again if you order or issue them a notice to appear, that notice to appear is a very specific immigration court at a specific time and specific date. so corset they do show up you know where they're going to show up. the issue that we have is they don't show up usually in numbers, very large percentage of folks don't show up it but unfortunately dhs did was take a step further. missing were not going to issue a notice to appear because that takes a significant amount of time to get that paperwork ready and again they were overwhelmed by their policies parts of what they did they said report wherever you go in the country please report to the closest ice office. we know they are not showing up and so it's very difficult to track them.

>> homeland security has also admitting to gop congressman andy biggs office they do not know how many illegal aliens the white house deported after having been released into the interior. the white house is still stonewalling on the numbers they are picked estimated half a million or release that's on top of the 600,000 god always all in room track to take on the size of kansas this year were hearing human smugglers are using motorcycles to erase the past border patrol with the weapons they have weapons on them. eighteen wheeler rigs, grocery store rigs, dump trucks. human traffickers are really ramping it up, chad. >> that is right all of these in numbers that you cited at the beginning those are all knowable numbers. dhs at least her and the time i was there, they cap very specific numbers on the individuals that are coming into the country. who was apprehended where, where they release into the interior of the country?

were they deported? there's a variety of statistics that dhs can provide me the question is will they provide it? i think the answer is no because it does not tell a very flattering story. tells a story most americans again scratch their head and said how can this be? how can we have a policy on the border that allows this type of illegal behavior to continue month after month after month. and so you are exactly right the cartel, the smugglers, the traffickers are taking advantage of these policies at the border. that is wasting historic numbers. you are seeing traffickers and smugglers -- traffic individuals as well as in narcotics across the border in historic numbers for numbers we've never seen before. elizabeth: the white house is effectively aiding and abetting human trafficking and drug trafficking at the taxpayers expense right now would like your thoughts on this. the white house announced the tick out and isis commander in sierra this week.

we have a 42-year-old bob from kansas, isis battalion commander denied bail after appearing in court in virginia but she faces at least two decades in prison. the fbi criminal affidavit revealed she gave isis commander a violent jihad is a plot to cross the u.s. southern border from mexico to bomb a college campus that's a neighbor drop off an explosive backpack and unnamed u.s. college campus to kill students. she said do not worry about the logistics i know how to get into the u.s. of mexico, your final word on this? what to think that democrats it's not just about famines and children's cross the border. we have real national security and public safety threats that are coming across that border every day. sima get serious about enforcing the rule of law the numbers from december just demonstrate you have over 30 individuals from other parts of the country other than mexico into central america. so the word is out for if you want to come to the united states illegally, your best bet is to do that on the

southern border as long as certain policies this administration continues to put in place of. elizabeth: got it, chad thanks for joining us and have a good week at okay, come back soon. i miss elizabeth macdonald you watch the evening at on foxbusiness. that doesn't for us we hope you have a good weekend. and thank you so much for watching for jonas again monday night. ♪ ♪ from the fox studio in new york city this is maria bartiromo's wall street. spit happy weekend to all. welcome to the part of the ellice of weekend was positioning for the week ahead. i am maria bartiromo. a huge surprise that generate jobs report with many more jobs added to the economy last month than most expect to be the end employment rate did kick higher. we break it all down for you and what it means for your money coming out. teaming up against america. vladimir putin and beijing this weekend meeting
