6:03 pm
us. you're watching the fox business network. we begin, look at that markets ending in the grain near session highs. we've got strong earnings coming in, pushing away fears about rising inflation. still concern the fed will raise rates later this year. joining us now in a fox business exclusive the lead attorney for the canadian trucker protest, he is keith wilson, with the former premier of newfoundland, brian peckford. great to see you both. mr. wilson, first to you, a blockade at the border, second u.s. canada block by truckers protesting mandates. alberta, montana crossing, ambassador bridge between ontario and detroit brocked. mr. wilson, prime minister trudeau says the protesters are fringe extremists racists and nazis. what do you say? >> it is troubling that the prime minister of our country is now characterizing hard-working canadians who during covid delivered food and critical supplies and put themselves at
6:04 pm
risk to whatever risk it posed and now suddenly for political opportunism he ilks characterizing these hard-working truckers who are trying to protect their charter rights, who are trying to insure that they're not discriminated against in their freedom of choice as somehow being a fringe element. ii think canadians took off fene to it. this was a spontaneous event. this was not organized. these events at a border are not organized. this is canadians saying we've had enough. government overreach has gone too far. we need our fundamental rights back. it needs to stop right now. elizabeth: mr. peckford to mr. wilson's point, great to have you on. the truckers are in it for the long haul. they will not stop until mandates are lifted. two canadian provinces are dropping pandemic mandates, alberta, saskatchewan.
6:05 pm
they have sparked movements worldwide, in the u.s., alaska, possibly from california to washington. what is your take what is happening, sir? >> i think this is a real test for our charter rights and freedoms which is only 40 years old where your bill of rights is own over 200 years old and this is the first real test whether written individual rights and freedoms really mean something in this country and you think citizens are beginning to realize that they have a precious, precious thing in the constitution right now and that's their charter rights and freedoms and now we see manifested through the truckers and other individuals, just how important they know these kinds of rights are for our democracy. so i think this is a super test, the first real test we've had about the charter which i helped create. elizabeth: interesting. what mr. peckford just said, mr. wilson. the premier of alberta tweeting out criticism of justin trudeau.
6:06 pm
people can live safely with the covid-19 pandemic without the need for damaging government interventions. that you can have therapeutics and vaccines, do it of your own volition saying the worse of the omicron surge is over but sir, there is outrage, a 78-year-old man wrestled to the ground, handcuffed, honking his car horn in support of the freedom truckers. what do you make of this? people are really angry about these images now on our screen. >> well, it could get much worse. i'm speaking to you from downtown ottawa in the heart of the protest. outside of this hotel right now there are several hundred, we're looking at over 2,000 coming in tonight. and, we're, the police have indicated that they may do a raid and round everybody up and arrest them and then start trying to move the trucks away. and i hope it doesn't come to that, but i need to emphasize,
6:07 pm
extremely dangerous, volatile situation. we're anticipating that if the police are going to make a raid and try to arrest the thousands of truckers and their supporters who are here, that it will either happen tonight or tomorrow night and i've said to the police, the world is watching. this is not how we resolve disputes. this, this dispute requires a political resolution. we were in court on injunction application on superior court in this province. a very senior judge made it absolutely clear to everyone, the truckers have the right of peaceful protest, that is what is happening but the police and political response so far has been to threaten to use force. elizabeth: hang on, sorry, sir, so is justin trudeau behind that, using police force to break up the protests? by the way it is only 10% of the truck drivers are unvaccinate, right? so and they're saying we don't want to have to quarantine when we cross the border from the u.s. into canada and it is
6:08 pm
hurting our livelihoods. is justin trudeau behind potential pushback tonight you say could be coming coming withe stepping in breaking on what is going on with the trucker protests? >> two-ways he can be. one is he holds the keys to resolve this. he is the one that caused restrictions and breaches of charter rights. he can lift them immediately. it is an amendment to an order signed by a letter of one of his ministers. so he has the ability to diffuse this, resolve it, follow lead of other countries in europe and elsewhere in the provinces. and it seems pretty obvious to any seasoned observers here that the prime minister is clearly putting pressure on the various police forces. he has been vilifying these hard-working people. he come out called them publicly racist, misogynists. he also said, do we tolerate these people? is that the language of a modern leader in a democratic country,
6:09 pm
trying -- elizabeth: we hear you. mr. peckford, to mr. wilson's point he is basically dividing, he is belittling. he is not uniting rejecting all calls to sit down and talk with the truckers. he is not doing that. that is not leadership. >> no. elizabeth: listen, by the way, react to that, then i will have you both respond to what justin trudeau is saying on camera. go ahead, mr. peckford. >> this is very, very provocative by a leader after democratic country as mr. wilson has said. it is really ironic it was his father, with me and eight other first ministers who crafted the charter rights and freed tops only four years ago which provided very thing he is trying to violate now. it is a real tragic, national irony and one that i'm sure is not lost on a lot of people in both countries. >> we hear you, mr. peckford. listen to the white house press secretary who is saying, she is saying that the white house
6:10 pm
supports freedom of protest but downplaying the protest as quote sporadic traffic jams. let's listen to the prime minister trudeau threaten, if you don't have mandates you will have more restrictions. watch this. >> there has been some suggestion, not by reporters necessarily at all but that this congestion related to the vaccine requirements. it is not. i mean i'm saying i will get to the protests but the protests going on across canada which has spread to a bridge, are leading to sporadic congestion and blockage. >> i can understand frustrations with mandates but mandates are the way to avoid further restrictions or having to be restricted. elizabeth: your response to what mr. trudeau, the prime minister said, mr. wilson? >> well, it is ridiculous. you know, it is all overblown but it is consequential. these mandates have tremendous damage to our children, to our economy and, why the prime minister is speaking to sow
6:11 pm
division and prolonging these unnecessary restrictions on our rights and freedoms i just don't understand. i hope he changes course. if he is not, then his party turns on him. elizabeth: mr. peckford. final word? >> no, it is unbelievable that a leader, our leader in this case in canada would make such statements about mandates and how important they are when study after study now has shown that the cure is worse than the disease. so he is on the wrong side of science and he is on the wrong side of history. elizabeth: keith wilson, brian peckford, thanks for joining us gentlemen. great to have you on. we'll get you back on soon. good to see you. >> look at this story, blue states rushing to the exits. seven democrat positives dropping mask mandates, eight in total but not for schools. senator tom cotton, governor ron desantis, wait a second, science didn't change, politics did. midterms around the corner. former hhs second brett giroir joins us.
6:12 pm
keep it here on the on "the evening edit." >> we're destroying our kids. the science is not behind these mask mandates. it is just not. we have to be able to repair the enamel on a daily basis. with pronamel repair toothpaste, we can help actively repair enamel in its weakened state. it's innovative. my go to toothpaste is going to be pronamel repair. if you have postmenopausal osteoporosis and a high risk for fracture, my go to toothpaste now might not be the best time to ask yourself... 'are my bones strong?' life is full of make or break moments. that's why it's so important to help reduce your risk of fracture with prolia®. only prolia® is proven to help strengthen and protect bones from fracture with 1 shot every 6 months.
6:13 pm
do not take prolia® if you have low blood calcium, are pregnant, are allergic to it, or take xgeva®. serious allergic reactions like low blood pressure, trouble breathing, throat tightness, face, lip, or tongue swelling, rash, itching, or hives have happened. tell your doctor about dental problems, as severe jaw bone problems may happen, or new or unusual pain in your hip, groin, or thigh, as unusual thigh bone fractures have occurred. speak to your doctor before stopping, skipping, or delaying prolia®, as spine and other bone fractures have occurred. prolia® can cause serious side effects, like low blood calcium, serious infections, which could need hospitalization, skin problems and severe bone, joint, or muscle pain. don't wait for a break. call your doctor now and ask how prolia® can help you.
6:16 pm
secretary. great to have you on. what changed? two weeks ago it was mask, mask, mask. now eight states dropping mask mandates, seven by democrat governors. illinois, new york. they're keeping them for schools for now. what changed? >> hard to know what changed but i'm certainly pleased the mandates are being dropped because they're responding to the science and responding to their constituents. three brief points, number one, two weeks ago there was a great study by johns hopkins that basically showed mandates really don't work. they don't drop mortality. if you just tell people, give then the information they will do what's right. so the evidence is not there. secondly, omicron cases are down. hospitalizations are incredibly down. cases are down. so the pandemic is getting better. and third the cdc really has not provided any guidance. in fact they're sticking to guidance that was true for april 2020 but in no way applies today, when people are vaccinated, have natural immunity. i think this is a good move.
6:17 pm
i applaud all the governors and mayors. elizabeth: it is confusing. the surgeon general is saying that masks are bad for children's mental health an development but then the cdc says we still want masking. so does the white house. we have five democrat governors up for re-election, illinois, new york, oregon, california, connecticut. just, a month ago they were blasting the virginia republican governor saying end mask mandates for all virginia schools. it just feels almost political. what do you think? >> they're is no short of politicizing everything since i was back in the trump administration and police politicized everything we do and there is no shortage of hypocrisy either. look, the data for masking children is weak if not northern existent, rest of the world under five, you do not put masks on them period. five to 12, only certain circumstance, only high-risk, only if the kid wants it.
6:18 pm
we're out of the norm. we know children back in school. let them see other faces and teachers faces. elizabeth: democrat stacy abrams apologized not wearing a mask in an elementary. new surfaces are surfacing. outkick is showing. worse than initially reported. she spent entire day around children who remain masked up. dr. fauci finally acknowledged natural immunity and dismissing it, taughting vaccinations. more than 100 studies worldwide talked about natural immunity. cdc new study says natural immunity works. infection rates with natural immunity much, much lower than those in california versus vaccinated. you i thought this was a pandemic of the unvaccinated. why the flip-flop from the dr. fauci and cdc now? >> well a number of us have been saying this for at least 10 months is that you should choose vaccination over getting infected but if you have been
6:19 pm
infected you are as protected or even more than those who have gotten the vaccine. there has been dozens of very well-controlled studies that showed that. it follows biology. look, i got censured from twitter for saying natural immunity was superior to vaccine immunity about six months ago but now the studies are clear. even the cdc study admits it. look, get vaccinated, versus taking a choice of getting covid. if you have covid, you have strong natural immunity, hands down, no question. the jury is out. that is now i think as close to scientific fact as can be. elizabeth: dr. brett giroir, great to have you on. come back soon. good to see you. this story, where there is smoke there is fire. speaker pelosi clearly feeling the heat over her husband making tens of millions of dollars of stock trading gains while she is on the job. pelosi tries to deflect attack out of the blue from supreme court with no financial disclosure. is pelosi trying to get the
6:20 pm

my daughter has matchintype 2 diabetesription. and lately i've seen this change in her. once-weekly trulicity is proven to help lower a1c. it lowers blood sugar from the first dose. and you could lose up to ten pounds. trulicity is for type 2 diabetes. it isn't for people with type 1 diabetes. it's not approved for use in children. don't take trulicity if you're allergic to it, you or your family have medullary thyroid cancer, or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2. stop trulicity and call your doctor right away if you have an allergic reaction, a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, changes in vision, or diabetic retinopathy. serious side effects may include pancreatitis. taking trulicity with sulfonylurea or insulin raises low blood sugar risk. side effects include nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, which can lead to dehydration and may worsen kidney problems. ask your doctor about once-weekly trulicity.
6:23 pm
6:24 pm
matt finn is in l.a. with more. matt. reporter: liz, this is the latest battle between los angeles county politicians and sheriff alexville knave with, it is heating up again as the l.a. county board of supervisors voted to advance a motion that would allow the county to supersede department heads and fire any employee. it means up to 4,000 sheriffs workers could be fired for not complying with the county's vaccine mandate. villanueva calls the move morally repulsive amid a crime surge and will fight to keep his staff. >> this will be a long legal battle, i warned the board, don't even start it. this is how dumb the situation is. we have roughly 10,000 people who are vaccinated and their positivity rate right now is 3.4%. the unvaccinated, their positivity rate is 3.8. so we're talking about a difference of 0.4% in positivity rate. reporter: part of this battle is because of villanueva's concerns
6:25 pm
over the contract's contracted company called says it has ties to china. the county and company denies it. villanueva is against the vaccine mandate and discouraged them to give personal information to the company. they say the workers are not his own but the county and if he doesn't take this seriously the county will. >> refusal to get vaccinated, to request an exemption, not either register in the system, do one or the other puts county lives at risk and it is simply unacceptable. reporter: liz the los angeles fire force, there is kern county employees in any department could soon be fired for not being vaccinated. the shift in power could come as soon as the march 15th meeting. we'll keep you updated liz. elizabeth: right when l.a. is in the middle of a crime wave. matt finn, good reporting. welcome back to the show. "the hill" media columnist joe
6:26 pm
concha. i know you're fired up. your reaction to that story? >> i can't even get my head around it, liz. the super bowl is coming to los angeles very soon, yet i did a story last week on how los angeles county literally, there were homeless camps around sofi stadium where the big game is being played. all those people were picked up and taken off somewhere because national television cameras, 100 million people will be watching. make sure everything looks clean around there. meanwhile you have to love out gavin newsom and eric bars set at this could go to football game two weeks ago, with masks off, partying with celebrities yet you're a health care worker you oppose a vaccine mandate you will be out of a job. the world is completely upside down. what science supports this at this point? with omicron cases plummeting we're still telling people they have to get vaccinated because something that no longer is spreading relatively, it is going to be a threat to people. it is just about control at this point, liz. elizabeth: what is really
6:27 pm
interesting, the official, sheila kuehl was just in matt finn's report, she was the first, one of the first to dine out at restaurants when she said, i'm going to penalize anybody else who dines out at restaurants. so she is the one still cracking down there against you know, about mandates. joe, let's listen to the chicago mayor for the first time, the first time the mayor of chicago is blaming school shutdowns on rising crime like carjackings but the teachers union is saying her comments here are quote, racist. watch this. >> there was a correlation that we believe between remote learning and, and rise in carjackings. look, we started seeing this rise in cases in 2020 and i'll be frank and say, in chicago there was a correlation that we believe between remote learning and, and the rice in
6:28 pm
carjackings. elizabeth: what she is saying more than half of the offenders are under the age of 18. so why does it go to always racism, if you disagree? >> oh, liz, when you're on the defensive, when in doubt these folks play the race card from the bottom of the deck. it is basic logic. if kids are not in school, they're not working and are not doing anything productive, some will turn to crime. and if african-american women look lori lightfoot is being deemed as racist these people have lost all sanity. by the way two days ago, 58 people have already been murdered in chicago this year alone. we're only in early february. yet the city, the voters there keep selecting democratic mayors and state keeps electing democratic governors. at some point people have to say, maybe we have to start people who prioritize crime, beefing up police departments, get right district attorneys in there that enforce the law, not make the law.
6:29 pm
elizabeth: progressive democrat like cori bush refuses to stop using the phrase defund the police ahead of the midterms, literally democrats are begging her to stop saying that. she won't drop it but it is like, the criticism is, they're way out of touch with people on the streets are having to contend with, including ag garland. he is delivering a speech to the county sheriffs association, closed to press. he has been pretty much accused of being silent on the dramatic spike in crime and then you have peter king, former new york lawmaker saying yeah, the public is now galvanized and electrified by murder attacks on cops like those in new york city. he is saying that president biden is saying it is about illegal guns. under rudy giuliani, it was about two million hot illegal guns on the street. that was cut more than 80%. it feels like the country is really focused on protecting the cops because they are the thin blue line. what do you say? >> liz, oh, boy, very well-said.
6:30 pm
in 2020 we, all we heard about was defund the police. now 2021, especially in 2022 it is re-fund the police because we see the numbers. 16 cities setting homicide records in 2021. 16. all of them run by democrats by the way. murders reached a 25-year high last year in this country. criminals are more brazen now because they know even if they get arrested there is good chance they get out on bail and do what that murderous maniac did did in waukesha, wisconsin, ran down grandmothers children. he got out on bail after running over the mother of his child. we've seen that movie way too much. people are fed up. we live in a more expensive country because of inflation and a less safe country because of crime. when you have those two factors going, whoever the party in power is local level, state level, the guy in the oval office they will pay for it dearly when it is time to cast ballots. believe me. elizabeth: joe concha, great analysis. we love having you on.
6:31 pm
good to see you. we're coming out of the bottom of the hour. you're watching the fox business network. court documents surfacing that hillary clinton campaign opposition research to attack donald trump way more targeted than realized. could this get picked up by special counsel john durham in the botched trump-russia probe investigation? we have it this hour. speaker pelosi is feeling the heat. tried to deflect an attack out of the blue, supreme court for having no financial disclosures. is pelosi trying to get the media off of her story as a ban on stock trading in congress gets traction? pelosi's husband made tens of millions of dollars of stock trading gains while she was on the job. house ranking budget member, jason smith is next on "the evening edit".

6:35 pm
6:36 pm
supreme court today as a ban on stock trading moves through congress. that would have stopped her husband earning tens of millions of dollars in stock gains while she was on the job. watch her go after the supreme court instead on this. watch. >> we make a disclosure every year of our, our financial disclosure. that is what it is. the court system, the third branch of government, the judiciary, has no reporting. the supreme court has no disclosure. it has no reporting of stock transactions. and it makes important decisions every day. but the, supreme court and the judiciary, even the chairman of the, chief justice has pointed out some of, what he, flirted with the word, used the word scandals that have happened in judiciary. there is another consideration as you know in the executive branch when they dis-- divest of their stock, they don't pay
6:37 pm
capital gains. elizabeth: why is she taking shot as the supreme court and the judiciary and the executive branch? >> what's clear, nancy pelosi does not like sunshine on her family's portfolio, her family's stock trades and it is interesting, you look at how successful her family has been with their portfolio, for some reason they tend to have higher yields, higher percentage of gains than average americans. and she is also the one that gets to decide what pieces of legislation get to be debated, which ones possibly might pass and those decisions have a huge impact on a lot of companies that possibly her family's investing in. i think the more transparency the better. how dare her to try to go after the supreme court, just to try to take away the focus of what is going on in her backyard.
6:38 pm
elizabeth: i mean, yeah, you know, we've lost a sense of shame in this country. i mean there is more attacks on the supreme court than ever. you know joy reid of msnbc calling them racists. it is so off the wall. it is sort of like, you know, they don't have any discretion anymore in what they say. now senators elizabeth warren, steve daines, they introduced a bipartisan bill to ban members of congress from owning and trading stocks. we'll stay on that story. biden's approval rating crashed through the 40% threshold in real clear average. inflation is an issue. white house saying no to ramping up u.s. oil production and gas production. inflation at 40 year highs. listen to this from representative jim jordan. he almost hit the ceiling when he he heard ro khanna, attacked oil companies as gas hits multiyear highs. >> you don't have to, you know,
6:39 pm
question anyone's intentions. his intentions were clear he said to the ceo of chevron, are you embarrassed as an american company that your production is going up. to me that is one of the craziest questions i ever heard ask the ceo of a company are you embarrassed that you're making more of your product and selling more of your product? i thought that is what you're supposed to do. i don't think it's a questioning their intentions. their intentions are clear of the they want to destroy the oil and gas industry in this country and they want to continue to drive up the cost of energy, drive up the cost of goods and services and they must like this 40-year high inflation. elizabeth: there is no shortage on stupidity in the democrat party. we might be run by the most idiotic bunch we've ever seen in the history of this country. they're going to ask opec and russia to increase production but attacking our oil majors who create a lot of jobs, for increasing production. can you square this? >> i'll tell you jim jordan has it right in the clip you just played. from day one, day one, of
6:40 pm
president biden's administration he did executive orders to make, make the united states less energy independent. in fact he fired thousands by an executive order, stroke of a pen, thousands of union workers to eliminate the keystone pipeline, directly impacting energy. this administration and washington democrats want to be beholden to russia for energy and not our own country. they want the energy prices to soar so everyone will try to run towards their electric, their electric cars, their green energy policies. even the secretary of energy laughed, laughed when you talked about prices of gasoline increasing. they are so out of touch with everyday americans, liz. but this is what they want. they're pushing their policies. this is what happens when you have one party rule of the democrat socialist party and they can control everything and
6:41 pm
that's why everyone are seeing prices at supermarket, the prices at the gas pump, the prices on everything skyrocketing, highest in 40 years because of the policies of one party rule of the socialist democrat party. elizabeth: congressman jason smith, it is good to see you. come back soon. the white house answer to the border crisis, reuters reporting that it wants to put illegal aliens on house arrest instead of inside of detention centers that story coming up. first federal prosecutor jim trusty. court documents surfacing that the hillary clinton campaign opposition research to attack donald trump way more targets than realized. could special counsel john durham pick this up in his criminal probe of the botched trump-russia investigation. we've got it next. stay here. ♪. who's on it with jardiance? we're 25 million prescriptions strong. we're managing type 2 diabetes... ...and heart risk. we're working up a sweat before coffee. and saying, “no thanks...” ...to a boston cream. jardiance is a once-daily pill

campaign way more targets than realized. welcome back to the show former federal prosecutor jim trusty. jim, great to see you again. this matters because special counsel john durham in his criminal investigation of the botched trump-russia probe he too is widening his net. he appears to be going after the hillary campaign. how it planted information inside ever the doj and fbi to go after trump. what is your reaction to the story? >> well, a couple of things. first is, remember this is not really opposition research. when you create entirely false stories, implant them with a very receptive fbi i think we're in the world of potential criminality, not just dirty swamp of washington politics. the other thing to keep in mind that is really interesting, kind of the first integrity test for our attorney general, i'm very nervous how he will do on the final exam which will include questions about the durham probe and hunter biden but for a pop quiz, if durham sees evidence of other crimes and what he is
6:47 pm
charged with investigations as special counsel he has to get a permission slip, a little expansion request goes to the attorney general. so you know, be really interesting to behind the scenes to see what kind of relationship durham is having with the ag. he still has to answer to them. he still has to get his permission when he starts to see the extra avenues. >> that is an important point. let's show the viewer what the document shows. it's a spreadsheet. it shows how hillary clinton research firm fusion gdp was, they were behind the steele dossier and also the russia alfa bank story plus attacks on trump's children, jared kushner, bank loans, condo sales, attacks on carter page, gosh pap -- george papandreou manafort. could they have placed this information inside of the doj and the fbi and the mueller probe? you will see a lot here. jim, you see a lot of these narratives played out inside of the media. it is clear how close the hillary campaign was feeding information into the media like
6:48 pm
cnn and msnbc and others to go after trump and his campaign. >> right. i mean remember the sussman indictment alleges that mr. sussman went to the fbi, proclaimed that there was this russian connection. then went back to the media said, hey, guess what, the fbi is investigating a russia connection. it is so circular the way they feed themselves, create circular narrative, the trump rule ends justify means. fbi, media, political part of jim comey's fbi, hillary clinton campaign and they were like-minded individuals and too happy to spread this type of defamation for years it turned out. elizabeth: they were probing michael cohen, his family, nra, gop primaries, nato majors, france and germany. the durham probe, we know they're amassing grand jury testimony from clinton campaign officials, outside dem lawyers,
6:49 pm
lawyers,ciia officials but what is really treiching what happened under the obama administration, jim, obama's fbi, doj, performed fisa searches on americans against their forth amendments rights. this abuse went on for years. the fisa court said it was abuse. doj and fbi were abused by clinton campaign critics and watchdogs say during the trump-russia probe. so you know is there going to be accountability here? we keep talking about that many times. is this going to happen? >> yeah, very hard to know. i mean look i really view everything that is going on in durham's lane as well as everything that is going on apparently in delaware investigating hunter as the most incredibly important integrity test for an attorney general that we are going to see in our lifetime. if the facts are what we're starting to hear about the level of corruption when it comes to these two avenues, the hillary rodham campaign and hunter biden and his eastern dealings, you know, you have to have somebody
6:50 pm
with incredible integrity at the top of the department of justice and so far i'm not getting the vibe we're going to see that but boy, it could come to a head. with that appointment of special counsel did for john durham, if the ag wants to shut it down he has to explain himself to congress. there is a way we'll eventually find out if the attorney general obstructs and otherwise righteous case. if durham says it is not a righteous case, first to say, good for him, he looked hard, didn't find it. it's a real curious moment for this nation's history when the attorney general has incredible hot potatoes on his desk to look at. elizabeth: jim trusty, great analysis. great to have you on. reuters warning that the white house wants to put illegal aliens on house arrest with monitoring devices unstead of inside of detention centers. texas congressman jodey arrington from the house border security caucus joins us next. >> you know the american public,

to have you back on. we have news coming up, unconfirmed reports, you know how the white house has been stalling the ice report on criminal illegal arrests and deportations, it looks like deportations may have plunged to about 70% versus 2020. your reaction? >> we've seen exponential increases over the last year, record now almost two and a half-million people. those are just the folks we've apprehended but here's what they fudged on we wrote letters about put pressure on them and they changed it, the criminal aliens apprehended who have committed crimes on our soil. it was 19 100% increase criminal aliens who have committed manslaughter and homicide in the united states. they changed it back but like a lot of things, there are moving target but the bottom line is,
6:56 pm
there's no control other than the cartel and they are pouring our country with drugs and crime and criminal aliens this president has done nothing, i see no change in his posture of policy at this time for the next three years which is a disaster we cannot stand idly by and let happen. liz: writers is reporting the white house has a new plan to buy hundreds of illegal immigrants under house arrest with tracking devices like anklet bracelets instead of placing them into detention centers, will this work? >> it will not work. it's just a political ruse for letting more people into the interior of our country do not show up at court or they show up at court and not abide by the judge's final order. the fact is, the law says we must detain people here illegally.
6:57 pm
number two, when they are detained, you have virtually one 100% deportation when the judge says they don't have a legitimate reason for being here but when you release, it's virtually one 100% chance it won't show up at court or they won't abide by that final order so this is more catch and release by another name. liz: there's also this story, 16-year-old connecticut student in connecticut reportedly suffered potential drug overdose from what police suspect was marijuana laced with fentanyl. teens have been dying in connecticut, to students hospitalized after overdosing on fentanyl in their schools. the fentanyl is laced inside marijuana. we know been reporting china may conflict chemicals for federal from the drug cartels across the border use the chemicals to produce this powerful lethal drug. what will be done against china on this?
6:58 pm
>> china is a whole set of problems. the substance, narcotics are flowing across our border. one 100% of the. as you mentioned, there's a public health crisis with respect to opiate overdoses. 100,000 americans last year died of drug overdoses. the majority of whom died because of fentanyl, some of whom died because fentanyl was laced around marijuana and other drugs. the thing is, we are doing nothing to stop the leading cause of death of people 18 to 45. we are totally ceding control of our border, paramilitary, narco terrorists, very coordinated and sophisticated drug cartel while

7:00 pm
>> i introduce legislation that basically says the states have the right to decide if they want to be complicit in this lawlessness. texans don't have the courtesy . liz: they don't have the courtesy, i understand. but this ego. thanks for joining us, join us again tomorrow night. ♪♪ kennedy: what you have to do to get a straight answer around here? is the pandemic over or not? do i still need to wear a mask? can i go into a restaurant or should i stay or should i go now? who knows? who's in charge? everyone in power has a different answer because they are following different signs apparently. right now almost two full years into this stupid pandemic and get nobody is on the same page, literally nobody. it's not just the administration versus a bunch of other people, no one in the administration can agree on
