why comedian bill maher says americans have to pause and just think a little more carefully before granting gender change to kids. i'm david asman, in for elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit" starts right now. david: fist taking a quick look at stocks ending mixed today. s&p edging toward bear market territory amid ongoing market volatility. we're following two breaking stories. at least 14 students and one teacher are dead after a gunman opened fire at a elementary school in uvalde texas, this afternoon. governor greg abbott said the 18-year-old suspect is dead. he is believe to be killed by responding law enforcement officers. no motive has been released. we'll bring all the latest details as soon as we get them right here. the man who allegedly shot and
6:03 pm
killed a goldman sachs employee on a new york city subway in unprovoked attack on sunday turning himself into police moments ago. his name is andrew abdullah. he is wanted on a murder charge. we're on tap for that story. first to the historic pain at the pump. now the biden administration has a new spin, suck it up, americans. higher prices now are good for you in the long run. edward lawrence has the latest from the white house on this very tough sell. edward? reporter: during the president's asia trip we did in the hear the words putin's price hike from his lips. i think it is important for you to exactly hear what the president said about high gases of the listen. president biden: here's the situation. when it comes to the gas prices we're going through a incredible transition that is taking place, god willing when it is over we'll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less
6:04 pm
reliant on fossil fuels. reporter: republican dan meuser from pennsylvania blaming president joe biden's policies, calling it what it is. >> so what's happening here is an assault on the disposable income of americans. it doesn't make any sense. >> yeah. >> and you know, they are going to pay the price for it. reporter: the american petroleum institute says the president should not be relying on saudi arabia or possibly venezuela or iran to supply more oil. it needs to be done in texas, oklahoma or louisiana because even near record high diesel gas prices affect all of us. but this white house only increased regulations and restrictions on oil and gas industry in this country. david? david: absolutely. edward lawrence, thank you very much. as you heard in edward's report, president biden finally said it out loud, higher gas prices are good for you. this period of tremendous pain for americans, just a transition period into the paradise of a green new world. we'll all be better after this
6:05 pm
quote, incredible transition. now this is the language of utopianism. where the ends justify the means. we're kind of wondering whether biden slept through the 20th century where the errors of that philosophy played out in horrific detail but apparently mr. biden doesn't get the picture even though most americans and a lot of other politicians do, including former president trump. roll tape. >> it's crazy what they're doing. so we can do everything. we have green, we have everything. you know we have, if you take a look at the oil companies, if you let them go, really let them go like i did, we had cleaner air and we had cleaner water than we have in like 34 years or something. and i let everybody go. they had to do it in environmentally safe way, an environmentally excellent way but we had more oil. david: now that's what you call a plan. it's a plan to get out of this
6:06 pm
mess and get back to energy independence without abandoning the goal of doing so in as clean a way as possible. for more we want to welcome to the show senator ron johnson. good to see you again. it's a sad moment, i want to pause for a moment, get your reaction to the horrible shooting in uvalde, texas. >> there are not adequate words to express the horror. my sincere condolences but that is not adequate. this is depressing, something this who are risk, children being slaughtered in this school, it doesn't get worse than this. so again my sincere condolences to those families. david: it is an evil that needs to be addressed around the country in some different ways. the crime in the streets, nothing more evil than taking the life of a child. senator, i want to switch to the so-called incredible transition that president biden was talking
6:07 pm
about overseas and, we keep hearing from democrats that there is no other plan for the mess that we're in right now, from the republicans. that is to say, republicans are just complaining about the president and what he is doing without coming out with a plan. we heard from donald trump this morning. he was on with stuart varney, saying what the plan was to get back to energy independence. if you have to put it in just two words, those are the two words, energy independence. that's a plan. >> well, our plan actually worked and our plan would be the exact opposite of what democrats are doing right now. remember both obama and biden talked about fundamentally transforming america. we're seeing what that looks like now. open borders, flood of illegal immigrants, deadly drugs, 107,000 overdoses last year, 40-year high inflation, record gasoline prices, rising crime. indoctrination of our children. they're fundamentally destroying our country. this was purposeful. this just didn't happen. high gasoline prices, the first
6:08 pm
shot across the bow in terms of their war on fossil fuels, cancellation of the keystone xl pipeline but this is what their goal is. that is what president biden basically admitting. they want high energy prices so we transition away from fossil fuels into i guess, you know, their utopia of electric vehicles, powered by windmills and solar farms. david: yeah. >> it makes us less secure. it is just going to impoverish us. and, david, you have to put out the very people that the democrats purport to want to help are ones going to be crushed by this. people at lower end of income spectrum, seniors on fixed income. jeff bezos, mark zuckerberg, the elite that the democrats represent, they will not be harmed by inflation, not to the extent these other people are. david: right. >> it is realignment of our politics. republicans are for the working men and women in this country. people are struggling under this transformation of america.
6:09 pm
david: i would throw our climate change guru or czar into the mix, just say his trips to davos and wherever he goes on his own private jets would be another example of somebody that will not suffer at all. the idea though, i'm glad the president came out and finally said it, we suspected that was talk going on in the white house, he came out and said it he is glad to see prices go up because it will lead to problems down the line or solve props down the line but there are some policies where the ends justify the means for this administration. one is killing fossil fuels. reverse discrimination, which is a horrible thing but you're seeing it with critical race theory, that is supposed to be good for us in the long run, censorship, the disinformation board. censorship is obviously a terrible thing but we need a disinformation board to get us to equity, to make the world a better place. of course the border chaos.
6:10 pm
they're willing to accept it. they have got to admit it now. they can't avoid admitting we have an open border anymore but they say eventually it will lead to a more just society. all of these policies, all of these destructive policies, they see good at the end. it is going to be good for us. that is a very authoritarian way of looking at it, isn't it? >> but of course there is never good at the end of their rainbow. take a look at socialism throughout history, communism, totalitarian regimes, results in the deaths of tens of millions of people. whether it is soviet union, whether cuba, now venezuela, it just doesn't work. of course one of the problems, liberalism simply denies reality, basic human nature. so yeah they always justify their means based on what ends they're trying to achieve but it is always their food -- good intentions, that is not what
6:11 pm
happens. you get equality. equal misery with socialism of policies of the radical left. david: we've seen that in venezuela, cuba, being nicaragua. part of their foreign policy plays into this, so much of what they have done while fallen apart in afghanistan everywhere else, works toward that same end would make life tougher for americans. the iranian deal, that sort of really disparaged the saudi arabians who hate the idea of iran getting more power and more money from an iranian deal. they are now moving closer to russia and keeping the price of oil at astronomical rates because of the fact that they are so upset with us over the iran deal. so everything is working in that direction, making life more miserable for americans. >> all their policies are weakening this country. our adversaries around the world understand that. tempts people like putin to invade ukraine, commit his war crimes and atrocities. we need a strong america.
6:12 pm
democrat governance, democrat policies do the exact opposite. they weaken america. david: what do you think is going to happen after the election? will you be able to put enough restraints on the power of the executive if you take over both houses of congress? >> i certainly hope that i can convince my republican colleagues to be william f. buckley conservatives, saying stop, we need to stop this massive deficit spending but prior congresses given authority to the president in so many different cases. so it is going to be a struggle. public opinion is huge though. if we can sweep democrats from power, that is probably the best way to restrain them in the future. david: we already have republicans working with democrats on some bills that we consider to be horrendous like the america competes bill which is $335 billion of corporate welfare. >> yeah. i'm not a fan. that is more deficit spending, further mortgaging our kids future. quite honestly putting money into universities after we
6:13 pm
canceled the china initiative, the investigations into how china steals our intellectual property and we're going to fund those same universities while not investigating how china will steal our stuff? it is absurd. david: senator, ron johnson, i hope you have effect on fellow republicans. don't think democrats will be swayed. push republicans to do the right thing. thank you for being here. appreciate it. >> have a good day. david: primaries in five states right now with all eyes on georgia. trump and mike pence seemingly facing off in that swing state. we'll explain coming next. ♪ >> tech: when you have auto glass damage, trust safelite. in one easy appointment... ♪ pop rock music ♪ >> tech: ...we can replace your windshield and recalibrate your advanced safety system.

6:15 pm
6:17 pm
david: we're keeping eyes on five primary states with georgia taking center stage. connell mcshane surrounding all the political push in the peach state. connell. reporter: no shortage of political enthusiasm in the state of georgia this year. show e showing up in the voting numbers, 850,000 votes were in before today's official primary. that is up 200% from two years ago. more than half the votes cast in republican primaries. long time gop operative brian
6:18 pm
robinson, because georgia is the center of the political universe. the governors race, has four fascinating characters in. republican incumbent governor brian kemp going against former senator david perdue with the chance to go against stacey abrams in the fall with president trump endorsing purdue over kemp. you find many are willing to look past the trump stamp of approval and still support governor kemp. >> he is the best of what we have to pick from. >> i do like trump. i did vote for him previously but, it doesn't really make a difference to me who he endorses. reporter: like many republicans in georgia, both of those voters you just heard from are fans of the former president and the current governor. david, back to you. david: connell mcshane, thank you very much. notable races giving you a glimpse what americans can come to expect november in the
6:19 pm
midterms. fox news political analyst, giano caldwell. great to see you. thanks for being here. cnn still for what it's worth, whatever they say is worth, they are still calling georgia's situation, the voting law, the restrictive voting law. i mean after we have three times as many voters already in this midterm primary than we had in 2018. they're calling it still restrictive voting. the people in georgia realize that it is not restrictive? in fact there have been a lot of people surprised how open it was after all of the propaganda saying it was restrictive. that has a lot to do, i think, with the support for governor kemp, don't you? >> well i don't know if that has a lot to do with the support of him but i tell you what we do know is it was a complete total farce from the beginning. the narrative it was a voter suppression bill wasn't true. and if voter suppression amounts to 200% increase in voting, then that is probably the kind of
6:20 pm
voting bill that you want to have where people are voting more, not less. this has become an interesting dichotomy i think, david, in the sense that i'm wondering especially talking about the georgia race we don't know if it will be perdue, if it will be kemp, who it will be. i'm interested in noticing if it isn't perdue, will voters support kemp in a general election. that is interesting to me. david: just that he had backbone standing up to all of these critics. he had all the media, he had those corporations that were pulling out the costs billions of dollars to the good people of georgia. many of them smaller minority owned business. >> right. david: some went out of business as a result of those boycotts. it was all based on a lie. >> absolutely. david: it didn't play out what happened. i think people simply like his backbone. i like to ask about the senate race. clearly herschel walker is the
6:21 pm
leader in the republican primaries. it would be him against his, you know, another black politician but a progressive one, senator warnock. what do you think about that? again you have the media ganging up on this false narrative that there is no such thing as a black conservative. what do you make of all of that? >> well, i'm very appreciative of herschel walker. he was my first guest on my podcast, out loud with giano caldwell i encourage listeners to take a listen to. herschel walker is speaking a message resonating with folks across georgia, not just black folks but all citizens of the state of georgia. i'm hoping that he really pulls it off. senator warnock hasn't delivered. in fact he has been running commericals making statements he is not a magician talking about, because he is a freshman in office there is not much he can do. people don't want to hear that. they sent you in office to deliver for them. he is has not delivered. i'm hoping meshell walker is
6:22 pm
able to primary which it looks like he will and certainly go up against warnock in a general election and win. david: because we had that horrible breaking news from texas we have to make it fast. only 20 seconds on this, but in texas you have the only pro-life democrat in congress, henry cuellar who is running against a progressive. she has support from aoc. her name is jessica cisneros. what do you think about that race? >> what do you think about -- david: think about that race, do you think cisneros will win or cuellar pulls out a re-election. >> that what is interesting, my old buddy martin morris used say to me, polls don't vote people do. we'll have to wait and see. david: appreciate it. >> thank you for having me. david: new report revealing democrats may be secretly looking for a biden alternative as the president returns from a high-stakes summit in asia where he made gaffe after gaffe on the world stage. how will his remarks impact our

6:24 pm
6:26 pm
david: president biden traveling back to d.c. after making gaffe after gaffe in high-stakes summit in asia. does that put a compromising position with our allies? byron donalds house oversight committee. congressman, thanks for being here. even if you disagree with the president, you want confidence on the world stage he will be in
6:27 pm
control, the commander-in-chief knows what he is doing. do you have that confidence in him? >> unfortunately right now. i don't think people have confidence in the president. as we've seen over the first 15 months of his administration, really just been catastrophe after catastrophe, crisis after crisis but when you do something like muddling taiwan policy in asia, right in front of the chinese government, it is going to have problems. now me, i would prefer to be strong and be so strong ally of taiwan despite what china might think, because taiwan is ally of ours. number one. number two, so important to the world economy but if you're in a waffle, and walk it back and say something else, that does not breed confidence for our allies and our adversaries like china, look at that as weakness. sean: now as we know during the afghanistan withdrawal was
6:28 pm
terribly orchestrated, if you can use that term, he disagreed with the military advisors they have or at least they claim he did, how to pull out, whether to leave troops in and so forth. he made his own decision. overriding the military advisors. that might have cost troops lives. there were marines and soldiers who died as a result of the way the withdrawal was done, that suicide bombing. is there a danger that he could still be doing that, not listening intently enough to his advisors telling him to do things, instead making it up on the fly, in asia? >> absolutely. i don't want to say may have cost soldiers lives. it did cost soldiers lives. we had to redeploy troops to secure a gate in afghanistan. we know the rest of the story. for knows family members we'll never get the loved ones back, those men and women in uniform back but joe biden continues to be commander-in-chief. that is bigger issue.
6:29 pm
if you're getting intelligence, if the military apparatus, is telling him these are facts on the ground, he is going off with decision making, not consulting people in military leadership, in military apparatus, that can have serious foreign policy concerns of the united states. once these decisions are made, they can actually set us back on the world stage for years to come. this is a very serious situation. sean: david: congressman, bringing it back home, there are a lot of democrats here we're told is uneasy about whether the president is going to run again, even make it through his first term. have you heard anything about that in the halls of congress from your democratic colleagues? >> no. not much. but i will tell you i know they got to be concerned about joe biden because he has been a fail rush everywhere. what credibility, what does that credibility give people he will be successful in another
6:30 pm
presidential run if he can't get the job right? if other democrats are trying to primary joe biden shoot, they might be successful. he hasn't really done a bang-up job for the country. even democrat voters know this. david: if he could be primaried by whom is the question? vice president kamala harris, people, many people have less confidence in her than they do in biden? >> well, listen i'm not going to speculate on who. what i will tell any democrat out there, if you are going to come with the same broken agenda, the same bad agenda, that leaves america last and makes us look weak compared to our advair -- adversaries on world stage, doesn't matter, if kamala harris, pete buttigieg, air. >> eric adams. it is about making america first. if you do that, doesn't matter who wins presidency on their side of the aisle. david: how about joe manchin?
6:31 pm
>> joe manchin done great from joe biden you know that. i know that. joe manchin is too moderate for the democratic party. he will never make it through the primary process. there are real issues over there. david: maybe after a complete drubbing, we're already expecting a loss for the democrats but a complete drubbing in november, that might make joe manchin look a little more appealing? >> that may be but i will leave that up to democrat voters. the number one thing i want to do right now we get back to common sense economic principles and policies here at home, securing our border, shoring up our allies across the globe. if we get those things right along with energy, we'll be in a better place. david: not only democrats in politics that are having qualms about biden running again. democrats in the media are not buying into the rhetoric coming from the white house anymore. jake tapper from cnn recently had an interview with brian
6:32 pm
deece economist from the white house. play that interview, roll tape. get your reaction. >> we're doing everything we can to try to bring those prices down. as you know this all emanates from putin's decision to invade ukraine which took -- >> not all of it. not all of it. some of it yes. david: if he has lost the media, what's next? >> they have lost the media because there is nowhere to go. there has been abject failure on everything, including energy, including the price of goods. so they can't send anybody out there to change the narrative, because the narrative is already broken. they're in charge. and they failed. >> byron donalds, great to see you. thank you so much for being here, congressman, appreciate it. >> anytime. david: bombshell revelations in the hillary clinton campaign's trump russia trial. where the fbi told its agents the collusion claims came from. we have those details next.

♪. we've got very latest on hillary clinton campaign russia trial a top fbi agent in chicago said she thought information given to her from the fbi had been provided by the justice department, not a clinton campaign attorney. joining me now, former deputy independent counsel sol wisenberg. thank you for being here. good to see you. what is your reaction to that report, the fact that clearly this was on research by a political campaign but the fbi thought it was coming directly from the justice department, completely vetted? >> actually i think it is really important on the key issue in the case which is materiality. this has always been the most difficult hurdle i think for this particular prosecution showing that sussman's alleged lie was actually material. here you have an fbi field agent actually working on the case saying this would have been very important to me figuring out
6:38 pm
motive. so it's a big surprise to me, and i think it could end up tipping the scales. david: here's, let me put the memo up on screen. these are two fbi agents, curtis hyde, and allison sands. this came out september 23rd right before the election, 2016. the department of justice provided the fbi with a white paper produced by anonymous third party. according to the white paper, a u.s. based server owned by the trump organization has been communicating with a russian-based alfa bank organization in moscow russia. of course as we know now that was a bunch of bull and originally a lot of people were willing to cut the fbi agents some slack, they saw through this pretty quickly but these two agents didn't. it did have the illusion of being something that was vetted even though it was complete political bull if you will? >> well, these two agents didn't see through it but the question
6:39 pm
is why? the other question is why fbi leadership decided to make this a full-scale investigation and keep it open for months, months, after it was known that it was really a bunch of bull as you say. really that goes back to the leadership under comey, comey and mccabe. it is just really shocking. it is not the only case that this happened in. where you keep something open and question is, why are you keeping it open? so you can have leaks to the media? so you can try to catch somebody in a lie and prosecute them for lying to the fbi like they did with general flynn or for obstruction of justice? it is an example of a deep core corruption going on in the leadership of the bureau. these agents, they go based upon what they are told by leadership often. david: peter strzok obviously was the guy who really pushed it forward. just as obviously he had a
6:40 pm
strong political bias against trump before and after the election as well. so it does seem absolutely clear that this was a political hit job. it gives credence to the fury of trump. we remember trump back in those early days getting extraordinarily furious on air, a lot of people said, oh, my gosh, this is a serious investigation. he should wait and see but he was justified in his anger. he is still angry. let me play a sound bite from something he said earlier about all of this investigation, roll tape. >> yeah. i feel vindicated because it turned out to be a total hoax. when you see emails where they're saying it's a hoax. saying do you believe this, do you think anybody is going to believe this stuff? what happens to them? they only go after republicans. they don't go after democrats. david: in fact the fbi was weaponized. it is a dangerous institution to become politically weaponized, isn't it?
6:41 pm
>> it is. you know it is very interesting too and you talk about the fbi, former president trump talked about the fbi, this particular plot was hatched, a dirty trick hatched by the clinton organization and by the clinton campaign and all their washington operatives? what did they want to do, they wanted to get the impremateur from the fbi. get fbi to open an investigation so they leak to the press that the fbi is investigating this. the second question, why does the fbi let that happen? do they want plausible deniability, that is why baker said, you're telling me you're not representing a client? all very, very interesting stuff. david: it sure is. sol wisenberg, thanks so much for being here. sol. appreciate it. >> thanks for having me. david: now this, are woke parents experimenting on their children. the number of children identifying as lgbtq plus,

we know some of that is natural. even people left-of-center like bill maher, therefore it is telling this is cultural trend. we need to have the courage on behalf of kids, on behalf of right-minded educates to say enough is enough. david: to what extent by the way, a lot of parents are involved. bill maher are suggesting some parents are virtue signaling to their friends in l.a. and new york, kind of using their kids and that's not the sort of stuff that we see in so-called flyover country, in the midwest and so forth but you do see it in these trendy communities but to what extent are schools actually trying to replace parents in making decisions about these medical issues? >> unfortunately, david, one of the many bad things that covid revealed by the united states is that administrators, superintendents, teacher union officials in this country stated explicitly that they, the school system, the education bureaucracy, want to replace

parents. i can tell you when i ran a k-12 school that we relied on parents to help to volunteer but most of all to be parents. what we did in the classroom, what we do in classrooms as teachers ought to compliment what starts first in america homes. when we hear toucher union officials, when we hear school teachers themselves, principals, superintendents, don't come anywhere near here. don't have the gall asking what we're teaching your kids. as educator that is a red flag. lean into educators, on behalf of kids, remind teachers their job is to educate, not indoctrinate. david: i was looking online, see whether or not kids who might be thinking about this, being encouraged to do it without their parents help, how should you start mtf transitioning at 15 without parents permission. here is the headline. one answer to a 15-year-old.

we are following this breaking news, fbi search warrant revealing a rocky man allegedly with ties to isis plan to kill george w. bush and get help by smuggling individuals through our open southern border. joining us now former acting as director tom homan. you've been saying this for months, a lot of people are saying what tom homan says is exaggerated, he's making it up. you saw this coming a long time ago, i imagine you are not surprised. >> i'm not, i've been doing this 35 years. it's common sense. when you have the border the way it is now, biden administration opened the border, mass migration, unprecedented numbers resulted in 70% of border patrol no longer on light duty, they are the center processing, checking baby formula. seven out of ten not on the line, that vulnerable to
6:56 pm
opioids, fentanyl overdoses, vulnerable to criminals and noted suspected terrorists. 700,000 getaways, recorded under this administration, they arrest people from 161 countries, they sponsor terrorism. if you don't take a single person are crossing the border who came here to do us harm and you are not -- you are ignoring the data. something else, bill motion broken of the story, even if you are arrested, border patrol is under such demand a process and release, we can't have overcrowding, that looks bad and it looks like a crisis, process even before vetting is finished so they arrested somebody, released them two days later, he's on the terrace watch list. likely two weeks later they find him. how many like him are out there the administration is admitting to? the national security issue, i've been saying this for a
6:57 pm
year. there's going to be a lot of these stories coming out, a lot more whistleblowers are coming out as we speak. david: is just pure numbers. if your numbers, i'm sure they will be multiplied by a factor of two or three when we have the end of title 42 but if you have 700,000 unvented migrants, getaways, you multiply that by two or three plus the attention, we have to report this story but the attention is getting around the world would probably encourage other terrorists to come through our southern border, no? >> exactly. here's what i have been pushing, after 9/11 we created databases, we have the no-fly list, you can't get a visa or airline ticket to come, we put checks and balances in place, any derogatory information, it's almost impossible to use a plane
6:58 pm
ticket so why would a suspected terrace go through the process to get a visa or airline ticket when he can go to mexico, he sees on the news every night thousands being released, he sees thousand getting away, why not go to mexico and not get arrested like 700,000 others did or even take the chance of getting arrested, processed and released because they are not vetting people they arrest. it's only common sense these organizations will take advantage of the most open border i've seen in my 35 years. david: now we've lost a tremendous listening post, think of afghanistan it was a listening post for our intelligence to get an idea of what terrorists were doing around the world. now it's essentially the same thing it was before 9/11, there are all kinds of things hatched inside afghanistan right now that we don't know about that could end up coming into our southern border. no? >> exactly. thousands of terrorists are
6:59 pm
released, the sole goal is to hunt the country and all they have to do is watch the news, the whole world knows our southern border is open. i've been doing this for 35 years and i'm telling you i've never been more concerned about security and the threat of terrorism right now because of the southern border. stories today highlight the fact of the seven borders open to terrorists coming across and it's happening and will continue to happen until this administration does the job and secures the border, brush off trump plan, we did it, we can do it again. david: 15 seconds, when you were head of ice, were you in touch with intel around the world to get an idea of who might be making their way across the border? >> yes, i've seen the reports everyday. david: is that still going on? there are still nice people doing their job. >> they seek what's happening
7:00 pm
and they are scared the terrace will enter into the country and they are starting to come out, they are whistleblowing and i'm glad they are you are good to see you, thank you very much, appreciate it. finally, last word on the shooting involving the texas, president biden 8:15 p.m. eastern time will make a statement to the country about the horrible shooting. more on that to come. we will see you tomorrow. ♪♪ kennedy: we've got a lot of breaking news, thank you so much for being with us so we can try to make sense of the unspeakable tragedy in the south texas town of uvalde. at least 14 children and one teacher that after mass shooting at an element tree school. hard to even say those words. thirteen kids, 70 hospitalized two days before the end of the school year. the suspect, 18-year-old who may have
