hacks into the u.s. power grids how electric cars and more could overload, maybe collapse the u.s. power grid? california has already been warned about that in its state. now this, first smash mob gang looting. now it is rivalry gangs stealing gas from your gas tanks and gas stations coast to coast. we have the story. senate gop moving to get rid of biden mask mandates on planes trains buses, also get rid of dr. fauci? the investigation into hunter biden take as new turn. not looking for for hunter biden i'm elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪. elizabeth: we begin with stocks ending higher today. the federal reserve raised rates first time in about four years to put brakes on a 40-year high in inflation. let's move on to what happened with the president of ukraine. president zelenskyy addressed

congress today. asked for more help as russia continues to bomb including civilians in a theater in mariupol. here is his video that had lawmakers in tears. watch this. ♪♪ elizabeth: now president zelenskyy says ukraine will not stop until victory. also saying that peace talks with russia are difficult. russia is killing civilians and children but russia is beginning to sound, quote, more realistic. now u.s. lawmakers pushing back on creating a powderkeg that could explode into a nato, russia conflict. also this. the u.s. has given a lot of aid to ukraine, $13.6 billion. patriot missile launchers at the border in poland, 50 miles from

ukraine. the president is asking for 800 million more in hardware and more for ukraine. he called putin, quote, a war criminal today. joining us now, senator marsha blackburn from senate armed services. great to have you back on senator. good to see you. your reaction to today's events? >> yes. when you look at the speech, the remarks that president zelenskyy made today to congress it was very moving. he laid out specifically what they need. talked about a no-fly zone. if he couldn't get that, get armaments, hardware, missiles, anti-ballistic missile systems and getting all of that he needs in order to do the job. you know what, elizabeth? that would basically give him the ability to create a no-fly zone. so that was very good. what i really liked that he did was he mentioned, he personalized this to us, talking

about the pearl harbor, talking about 9/11 and then he laid out a challenge to president biden after saying he appreciated the president's support saying be the leader of the free world. be the leader of peace. and i thought it was all very well-done. the video was wonderful. it was inspiring. he is an inspiring leader and to think he is doing all of this. he is 45 years old. elizabeth: senator, you make an important point there. what's happening stateside with u.s. energy? you've been pretty vocal about this, senator. you're a student of history. the past four recessions have been preceded by sharp spikes higher in energy prices. the white house knows that. >> right. elizabeth: senator, i would like your reaction to this pushback from republican lawmakers slamming the white house for gaslighting on gas prices blaming putin and greedy oil

companies. watch this. >> i think it is perfectly clear that vladmir putin is not the cause of this rampant inflation. >> if you just take a look at what prices were like when joe biden took office. price, gallon of gasoline, 2.38 the day biden became president. this is all on joe biden. >> typical family we're told is going to pay $2,000 more this year for gasoline than they did last year. >> the president is literally gaslighting the american people. he feels if he says it enough people are going to believe that fuel prices were putin's fault. we know that's not true. elizabeth: senator. >> your reaction to that. about 3/4 of the price spike higher came before the war in ukraine. your reaction to what's going on. >> what we know they're trying to blame anybody but themselves. they think if they say it long

enough people are going to believe it and people know that prices have been going up steadily over a year. they know when it went to $3 a gallon. they know went it went to $4 a gallon. people are smart. what we need this white house to do is to say let's have an "operation warp speed" for american energy. let's return to being energy independent. it is unbelievable that we have been importing as much as we have from russia. it is just inconceivable that this white house wants to get oil from iran and venezuela. this is absurd. our two largest trading partners are mexico and canada. let's finish the keystone pipeline. that would go from canada all the way to the gulf. let's make sure that we are able to be energy independent. that keystone pipeline could be

finished within two years. and you know what, elizabeth? talking about the power grid. we do not have the power grid generation capacity to give us what we need to support and all electric fleet. electric vehicles are too expensive for most families to afford. right now in tennessee they're talking about, we've got two people. we've got two cars. we're paying so much more at the pump, so much more at groceries. more every time we go register the kids for a camp, for ball, or for some activity. the inflation is through the roof and people are saying, let's do something about it. the white house isn't. they blame joe biden for what is happening with russia, ukraine. they blame joe biden for not being able to articulate a foreign policy. they blame him for making

decisions that make their life worse. elizabeth: senator, you know your point is well-taken. the white house strategy, don't talk to u.s. oil producers, don't negotiate with them, instead negotiate with iran and venezuela of the by expensive electric cars. draw down from the strategic reserves. that moves the needle a dime or nickel this is literally picking up nickles in front of the steamroller of inflation. the white house is using tiktok stars blaming putin for rising gas prices, touting that storyline. far left, climate activists want president biden do an executive order, use ukraine as an excuse to go green. ban oil drilling maybe on federal lands, maybe fossil fuel subsidies. federal lanes, about a quarter of the out put there. the president already reversed 100 trump policies to achieve energy independence. like your response to this. watch the energy secretary say the quiet part out loud. use ukraine to go grown.

watch transportation secretary downplay rising gas prices. then watch democrat senator joe manchin. watch this. >> particularly if the administration or congress should pursue a stand-alone clean energy package? >> we heard president zelenskyy. we do not want to see any country that is held hostage to vladmir putin and this is a moment for congress to be able to act. there can be a compromise. there can be movement on this. this is a moment to have this happen. it is an urgent moment. >> a lot of things we could be doing right now that would bring direct relief to the pocketbooks of american families that are greater than most any family's gasoline bill that includes lower cost of insulin. the president is for it. queer getting a lot of pushback. >> worrying about the global climate. anything the united states does to replace or help our european allies, nato allies, we do it better and cleaner than anything

else. why don't we ramp up to use the energy we have. we have the ability. elizabeth: senator, he is saying how about a north american powerhouse of energy with u.s., canada and mexico. we know europe will cut russia natural gas imports by 65% by next year. why not unleash u.s. energy? reuters is reporting russia started to reverse the flow of gnat gas -- nat-gas away from europe. a key pipeline that sends nat-gas via poland. why not have u.s. energy sell nat-gas into europe? >> we should be selling it into europe. we could be energy independent. we were energy independent the day joe biden took the oath of office. to want people to go buy electric vehicles, to say let's use this crisis in ukraine, the war in ukraine, to push a green agenda. this is so unseemly. mexico, canada, there are two

largest trading partners. "operation warp speed" for energy. that should be their focus. elizabeth: there you go. okay. senator marsha blackburn. great to have you back on. come back again soon. great to spend time with you. now we have this, gop ramping up probes whether russia is funding climb at activists to tear down u.s. energy. u.s. energy players are hollering. hit putin where it hurts, ramp up u.s. energy but is russia's putin playing a double game? does putin know after alleged multiple hacks into the u.s. power grid that electric cars or more could overload the u.s. electrical system? maybe it collapses. california has been warned about it already. next on "the evening edit." >> joe biden on the first day began a war on the oil and gas industry frankly precipitated much of the disaster we're encountering right now.

we're talking 3 million-dollar ghandi museum in houston. requested by democrat representative al green. half a million dollars why ymca swimming pool in yonkers, new york. 110,000 for foot truck, refrigerated van to serve a center in massachusetts? that was democrat representative jim mcgovern. really nothing to lower your gas costs, your prices. our jeff flock as more. reporter: liz, we come to you tonight from a gas station a wawa gas station here in will definitely right at the national average. take a look at the numbers right now. $4.30 the average gallon of regular, up about a nickel from this time last week but down compared to yesterday. we are off the highs. so that's a positive, a small positive when you they about all the other things that are impacting spring travel, spring break perhaps. not only high gas prices if you're driving but how about hotels? yeah, up 20% we are told this

spring compared to 2019. if you're renting a house, say at the shore or in the mountains, that is going to cost you too, up 16% plus at the shore and 20% or so in the mountains. despite all of that at this point it doesn't look like america has decided not to travel this spring. plans seem to be on track. listen to what aaa told us. >> on our survey in fact, 42% of those who had summer travel plans are not making any changes to them. so so far so good. and going back through november, december, january, we just fell off the chart bookings for the first quarter which ends in a couple weeks. reporter: despite all of that there are indications that behavior is beginning to change. everything from buying less gas to a scene we see out here at the tesla supercharger that is attached to this gas station. the supercharger almost as busy now as the gas pumps. some folks pretty happy that

they're driving an electric car right now. you know, some folks concerned about climate change have said, all it will take to spur more interest in electric would be high gas prices. right now. we have plenty of that. liz? elizabeth: jeff flock, thank you so much. congressman mark green. congresswoman nicole malliotakis. great to have you on. we know republicans are looking russia funding anti-climate, fracking activists to destroy u.s. independence. russia reportedly hacked into the u.s. power grid, a big hack four years ago. congressman green, does putin know the power grid is not ready to take on electric cars, it could collapse the system? >> of course he does. we have evidence several million dollars were funded through non-profit corporations in bermuda to basically attack our energy industry to push the anti-fracking business,

environmentalists claims. it is a huge, massive disinformation campaign for putin. it is right up

>> absolutely. when we produce, when we're energy independent and the supply of oil and gas is coming from our gas decreases massively. you remember the price of oil was negative. they had to pay people to get it

out of the wells back when trump was president. when that happens putin loses tons of billions of dollars because of the price fall. elizabeth: that's a good point. >> of course he is going to push you know, an anti-fracking disinformation campaign because it increases the price of gas and makes him more money. elizabeth: that's right. congresswoman malliotakis, tesla increased the prices of its entire lineup of electric vehicles 5% to 10%. surely after the transportation secretary pete buttigieg was pushing electric cars. watch democrats again say the solution to your high gas prices is buying an expensive electric car. watch this. >> today the average gas price in america hit an all time record high of over $4 per gallon i'm willing to pay $4 a gallon. i will hell, pay $15 a gallon pause i drive a tesla. >> perhaps if you let the market work in this respect, people

feel pain. they take a second look at the f-450 gigantic truck, reconsider a tesla. see hybrid innovation. >> i happen to be here sandwiched between our two electric vehicles, secretary buttigieg and i both have two of the electric vehicles. >> we have to move to clean energy solutions. clean is in the end where we should be so we don't find ourselves in this position again. >> that is it. >> there is no sound or fumes? >> there is nothing. >> how do i know it is actually working [laughter]. >> it is. elizabeth: again and again, we got to take this point up. congresswoman malliotakis, u.s. electricity is powered by natural gas and coal and fossil fuels, about 2/3 of that. if we go all electric you will have to basically ratchet that up to in order to power electric cars. your final word. >> absolutely right. look, the democrats have had a war on cars. look at new york city, the congestion pricing proposal, increased tolls, eliminating

parking spots. this is another example why they want to increase the cost of drivers hoping they move to electric but it really doesn't make a difference, as you said, electricity, powered by natural gas. look what como did with indian point power plant, reducing 26% of new york city's electricity. it is ridiculous. people are paying skyrocketing costs. >> got it. congressman green, congresswoman malliotakis thanks for joining us. the senate wanting to overturn biden's mask mandates for planes, trains, buses. dr. paul wants to fire dr. fauci. >> the problem with having only one person and everything go before him like 40 years, he is monopolized power. he created a culture not conducive to scientific inquiry. ♪. ♪ ♪

many issues, been wrong repeatedly and has no accountability from ignoring natural immunity acquired from the infection to commanding that kids wear masks in schools without scientific evidence, to the idea that we need to nate newborns and young adolescents despite risk of myocarditis. the emails reveal show him to be a petty, partisan politician who is not above taking down his scientific enemies. not above having an enemies list. this is someone that seriously needs to be separated from government. >> dr. carson, what is the reaction to that? >> well i'm happy that senator paul is a physician and has a scientific background, understands when we're following the science and when we're not and unfortunately there was a lot of the second category not following the science here. you know, we've known about princeton's natural immunity for hundreds of years.

all of sudden, natural immunity, what's that? because if they acknowledge natural immunity then you have to abandon the mantra that everybody has to have a mask. you can't do that. then there was a rule that said you can't get a eua, emergency use authorization if you have another effective treatment. all of sudden hydroxychloroquine, that is horrible that will kill you. that is horse medicine. ivermectin, that is crazy. what has happened, what happened unfortunately the american people have lost a tremendous amount of trust in our governmental medical institutions. and it is going to take a long time to get that back. so, i hope that dr. fauci actually understands that as he sits down and does some self-ininspection. maybe there is another way to do

these things. >> yeah, dr. carson, yeah, we hear you. critics say the authors of the lockdown debacle, they have to be stopped from doing that ever again. they should be made to answer for the destruction they caused. reinstate every worker fired over vaccine mandates, get them compensated. people that pushed shutdowns, fired them for not being vaccinated they will never admit they're wrong. that is the harmful thing we've experienced over the last two years is the debacle of botched shutdowns. the senate moving to say no, getting rid of the mask mandates for planes, trains and buses. let's listen to senator ted cruz on this. watch this. >> joe biden didn't have a mask. kamala harris didn't have a mask. nancy pelosi didn't have a mask. and yet john q. public, if a grandmother is flying to see her grandkids, she is told, put the mask on the airplane. elizabeth: the senator referring to democrats at the state of the union not wearing a mask. your response to the senator

here? >> well, he is right. again looking at the science, you know, you don't need the mask because if you look at the areas where they had no mask mandates versus the areas where they had mask mandates, there is no significant difference and i certainly think that people who are immunocompromised, have significant issues, might be well-advised to wear a mask, but that is something they should take up with their physician. that should not be some government bureaucrat dictating. and -- way our system is set up. elizabeth: we hear you. what about the fallacy of, you know the states with more republicans in it were not vaccinated as much as those in blue states? >> well, you know there were a lot of people who refused vaccinations, particularly the first line workers, doctors, nurses, because they know something about immunology.

it is a lot harder to pull the wool over their eyes, although many of them were fired inappropriately, no question about it. there is a lot of stuff here. that is why it is so important that we learn from this and never allow it to happen again. elizabeth: got it. >> the issue is not covid. the issue is government overreach. elizabeth: got it. dr. ben carson, thanks for joining us. you will be back again soon. the investigation into hunter biden taking a new turn. it is not looking good for the president's son. that is next on "the evening edit." >> you have hunter biden with china, hunter biden with russia. if you worked for the state department and daddy is the vice president of the united states of america, you put that person in a terrible position!

cec for china's belt and road. they used fara to go after michael flynn and manafort. they have to look into violating foreign lobbying laws but not just hunter biden but biden's brother james. >> foreign registration act was not used a lot, before robert mueller, the trump russia special counsel pulled it out and use used it to prosecute some people involved in the trump russia matter. members of congress, certainly republicans think, well this law must be alive again. in case it is it is time to look at hunter biden in relation to it certainly, certainly has to be investigated and then the other thing is just the actual tax issues involved. hunter biden has conceded in his own book that he is under investigation for his quote, tax affairs. he got so much money from so

many foreign sources it is obvious that the irs is going to look to see if all of that was reported in his tax returns. elizabeth: yeah he was using off-balance sheet shell companies according to a senate report, to take in the foreign cash flows. one email, if it is true indicated that hunter biden did it on purpose to avoid having to register as a foreign lobbiest. byron york, always terrific to have you on. have you back on soon. look at this, theft is going next level. we went from smash mob looting to robberies of gasoline. it is happening coast to coast. robbery gangs stealing gas from gas tanks, your car, gas stations. we're breaking it down for you next on "the evening edit". tele that liberty mutual customizes car insurance so you only pay for what you need, and we gotta do it fast.

gas across the country every day. they're robbing cars, if you're not aware, you leave your car alone, popping open the tank and putting in a rubber hose to take the gas out. or they're driving a van over a gas station underground tank and has a trap door inside of the van. they open up the trap door. they pop the lid, somehow on that underground gas tank with a drill or whatever. they put a rubber hose in the tank, in the gas station to steal the fuel. this is sophisticated stuff, joe. >> you're absolutely right liz. and they're not going to stop. they will continue to do this. now it is profitable to steal gas like this. make no mistake, hard-working men and women of law enforcement we'll catch these folks. when ever we have organized retail thefts we have investigatorsed assigned to the cases. here is the rub, once we catch them. they are let out on a pr bond. they pinky promise to show up to
