mobilizing for the midterms, rad he willing the democrat party. i'm elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪ elizabeth: welcome to the show. you're watching the fox business network. take a check of your money. stocks up in a broad rally. earnings coming in pretty decent and strong. now big tech and growth stocks drove major averages higher. reports coming in, twitter's trial against elon musk for backing out of the 44 billion-dollar takeover is set for october. oil pros warn that the white house and g7 idea of a price cap on russia's oil to stop its war in ukraine could backfire, could drive oil to $140 a barrel. edward lawrence is in washington with more. edward? reporter: well, liz, three sources are telling me that turkey could be the key to getting wheat out of ukraine one source republican, one democrat,
6:03 pm
one from the administration, all three are saying there is a framework agreement with russia to ship wheat from silos in ukraine out through the black sea by the end of july. this would be welcome news for some countries already experiencing food shortages. it could also help rising prices. latest cpi information shows stuff with wheat is up over the past 12 months. look at cereal, cereal products up 15.1%. fresh biscuits, rolls and muffins up 10%. bread is up 10.8%. believe it or not the increase in wheat prices is affecting chicken prices because of chicken feed. >> feed is 60% of the cost of producing a chicken so it does affect chicken. i think you're seeing prices of chicken more demonstrative now because chicken is the number one protein in the west for a long time. people are buying chicken every week, not just every month. reporter: price of chicken up
6:04 pm
178.1% year-over-year -- 18.1%. this is affecting real choices. elizabeth: thank you, edward. we have congressman bruce westerman and along with former cbo director douglas holtz-eakin. thanks for spending time with us. congressman, president biden may declare climate emergency. critics say nothing screams lame duck than that. is biden's agenda stalling? >> it is an emergency what is happening with inflation and processes in our country and energy is the root of that and when the word climate comes out of biden's mouth, that means another attack on domestic energy. we have energy here we should be producing here creating american jobs. i'm afraid another biden climate emergency will mean higher prices at the pump. it will mean high every food costs, listening to the comments about the inputs, raising
6:05 pm
chicken. we grow a lot of chicken in my district in arkansas. nitrogen fertilizer costs increase, that translates into an increase cost in grains that go into feeding all kinds of animals. elizabeth: yeah. >> i don't think we've seen even really beginning of the pressure on food prices with droughts, with reduction in planted lands because of input costs. there are a lot of things working in the opposite favor of lowering food costs. energy is right there with it. elizabeth: that's true. congressman, what the congressman is saying, douglas. the white house says this, quote the president made clear that the senate doesn't act on his agenda he will. senator joe manchin said no to more climate spending. douglas, one year ago today president called inflation temporary. it was 5.4%. it has since nearly doubled to an historic 9.1%. watch that, watch the white house new spin. watch. president biden: our experts
6:06 pm
believe, the data shows that most of the price increases we've seen were expected and expected to be temporary. there is nobody suggesting there is unchecked inflation on the way, no serious economist. >> ambiguity about the length of that word. some people here transitory and they're going to think weeks and months. think lack of specificity about the cadence that was implied by that word, the temporal cadence implied by that word, led to a level of ambiguity that wasn't serving the debate very well. >> douglas, that needs a u.n. translator. what is he talking about? >> that is just games with words, liz. the reality is that we can look at the data in the middle of 2021 and see that around the globe where they claim there were big supply problems. inflation had gone up by 2%age point in europe. in the united states it was already up by six percentage point t was a u.s. growth
6:07 pm
problem. it was a policy decision they made with the american rescue plan, keeping us monetary stimulus, having quite frankly just a flawed climate strategy which is the congressman pointed out which really had big consequences from the u.s. it is really striking, if you think back to nearly 15 years ago, 2008 last time we had big run-up in oil prices the u.s. was very exposed to it. post-2010 explosion of north american shale revolution, suddenly when global oil prices went up we owned the gas station and did just as well consumers were hurt. no longer a big deal for the u.s. we've undone that progress. we're more exposed to inflation. we're more exposed to the threat of recession. there are two big flaws in their strategy. elizabeth: to what douglas is saying, we see diesel going up 76% year-over-year, congressman. gas is sup 60%. that is feeding through shipping
6:08 pm
costs causing prices are going up. democrats push towards culture issues. 17 democrats, ilhan omar, ayanna pressley arrested. you're seeing images of alexandria ocasio-cortez caught on video escorted away by police with hands crossed behind her back. she was not in handcuffs. she is indicating look like she was in handcuffs. she was not. this is the thing. the white house is saying that it is up to opec to pump more. biden inherited a nation that was energy independent. you see the democrats moving towards culture issues, where it is kitchen table issues for voters. that is what the polls show. what do you think? >> you're exactly right. they're doing anything they can to distract american voters from the crisis this administration and far left has created, instead of solving the problems, looking to texas or alaska to
6:09 pm
solve our, solve problems, why on earth would they go to saudi arabia in the first place. why negotiate with cartels when you could be creating jobs here in america? as far as temporary inflation makes me want to channel my inner reagan to say temporary biden inflation is the closest thing to eternal life here on earth. it is not temporary. it is here to stay, until you make changes. we could get on a different path to start fixing the problem to lower inflation but right now we're headed right back to jimmy carter's 1970s. elizabeth: what the congressman is saying, when inflation hit 9% in the early '70s, doug, it stayed there nine years. it is really sticky. earnings dropping 4.4%. that is the worse than the great recession. we want to show you now what transportation secretary pete buttigieg testified about electric cars and the benefits to americans feeling the ongoing pain at the gas pump. watch this.
6:10 pm
>> of course the more pain we are all experiencing from the high price of gas the more benefit there is for those who can access electric vehicles. elizabeth: okay. the average electric car costs more than the average american family. by the way, electric cars are powered by the power grid which is 80% powered by fossil fuels. >> yeah. this has never really hung together as an argument. incredibly really risky climate strategy that says we'll have the cleanest electricity generation ever, just solar and renewables. then we'll transport across a grid that never existed and we'll power every week every home, every factory in america with that. it is not realistic strategy, even as a climate strategy. it led to this exposure on the oil and natural gas front. terrible policy misstep. it is really changing the subject pause if you look in the data and they seem to not want to talk about this, you can take something like rents or
6:11 pm
homeowner costs, shelter costs and they are up from 1% to almost 6%. they have shown no sign of going down. they're steadily going up. there is no supply chain there. there is no invasion of ukraine in the house. there are none of the things they want to distract to change the subject about. that is just policy errors causing inflation. if you look at food energy, shelter that is 50% of the american budget. it is going up at 11% a year of the those are the problems. elizabeth: it gets to be the danger zone when late night comedy is weighing in. watch this. >> i read that dr. fauci said that he plans to retire by the end of president biden's term. everyone turned to biden, is there anything you would like to announce too? >> have you noticed biden has gotten a little feistier lately? when he first came out he was like a soothing grandpa offering butterscotch from his coin purse, right? >> prices of gas are so high these days driving is the entire
6:12 pm
date you know? just like he really spoiled me last night. we drove all the way from my house to the enof the block. oh. he is so romantic. elizabeth: funny stuff. your final word, congressman? >> well, that is funny but you see the late night comedians turning against this president and this administration. just like the polling shows basically everybody is. i saw a poll showed over 90% of americans are concerned about high food costs and high energy costs and this administration just keeps doubling down on bad policy. elizabeth: got it. >> i was in the hearing in the t&i committee with secretary buttigieg and you know, it's bad environmental policy the way they're pushing for electric vehicles so much. at the same time they're pushing for these vehicles they're closing down mines in the united states where we produce the elements and minerals that go into them. elizabeth: interesting. >> there is no strategy or
6:13 pm
cohesiveness to their policy. elizabeth: got it. congressman westerman, douglas holtz-eakin. pleasure having you on. come back soon. the white house is accused of obstructing congress into getting answers to bidens dubious business deals overseas. the steps house republicans are taking. that is coming up. speaker nancy pelosi botched response to her husband's lucrative stock trading in office. it is a whopper after mistake pelosi should have caught. we take it on with congresswoman kat cammack in the "evening edit" ahead. >> what we're seeing here, right on time, it is fishy at best, it is collusion at worst. ♪. she always had your back... like the time she spotted the neighbor kid, an approaching car, a puddle, and knew there was going to be a situation. ♪ ♪ ms. hogan's class? yeah, it's atlantis.

♪ elizabeth: look who is back, congresswoman kat cammack from house homeland security. it is great to have you on. this d.c. controversy, it is good to see you, lucrative stock trading by nancy pelosi's husband while she is speaker of the house and has been in congress, her team's answer, her office is saying nancy pelosi does not own any stocks. here's the problem, the pelosis live in california. california is a community property state so she does own them. >> this is what's crazy. i would love for a member of the media to ask her about their
6:18 pm
arrangement, whether they have a prenup, if they were to divorce what would happen to all the assets she claims are not hers? this is ridiculous. a little-known fact americans should know, when members trade stocks they have up to 30 days to report it, 30 days. even then they don't have to give the exact amount when they purchased or sold. it is just a range. this is just one more example of this double set of standards that congress lives by that americans don't have to live by. it is ridiculous. it is totally unfair and it needs to change. this is absolutely the swamp at work at its best. elizabeth: you know congresswoman, the other problem too, paul pelosi, he buys stock options in companies like big tech companies, right? again, making millions of dollars while pelosi is overseeing potential legislation that could hit companies like big tech. to be able to trade stock options profitably you have to know or figure out which direction that stock could go
6:19 pm
and then you make a big government. this feels like, you know, there is talk that they have got an insider information edge? >> absolutely. when you think about this, you have that 30-day lag of when things are going to be report, if they're reported at all, if they are not reported, get this, it is only a 200-dollar fine. so there are millions of dollars of stocks trade, bought, you think that 200-dollar fine is going to bother the pelosis? clearly not. they have clearly no regard for the law as discovered by the drunk driving incident by mr. pelosi. think about this, you have all of these stocks that are being bought and sold all the time. legislation that is typically in draft form and the speaker is in control of what bills come to the house floor and when. tell me that that is not the most incestuous relationship of all. we know he is getting inside information because there is no way he would have known in july
6:20 pm
the chips act or would be coming to the house for for a vote after the senate had been considering their version. there is no way he would have known that because we had seen months ago action on this bill, then it died out. so clearly there was some insider baseball going on, insider information. it is wrong. it absolutely we should be investigating this. she should be held accountable for sharing the information with her husband. elizabeth: congresswoman, to your point, buying millions of dollars worth of stock in big tech companies with headquarters in pelosi's own district. chipmaker nvidia is in pelosi's home district. 52 billion-dollar of chip makers to take on china, that is coming down the pipeline. apple, google, all have their headquarters right in pelosi's district. that is who paul pelosi is invested in. critics say it raises questions that nancy pelosi lead as life of privilege. she and her husband think they're untouchable. that the idea that her job has nothing to do with his financial
6:21 pm
doings, dealings, it doesn't pass the smell test this is making money off of your perch in congress. it feels like arrogant elitism, the swamp on steroids? >> absolutely, this is absolutely why americans across the country do not trust members of congress because they live by a separate set of standards. there is inside information that members of congress are privy to because they work and craft legislation. they engage with the companies on a regular basis. they talk to the association. not only that, but they control the floor schedule. in this case speaker pelosi is the one who decides when this bill comes to the floor and has regular conversations with the other chamber in the senate to determine when this will go to conference. double set of standards. we saw it under hillary clinton. we saw it under the pelosis. there are double standards of that exist for the politically connected, limousine liberals and elite.
6:22 pm
it has to change. we can't go down this path to expect people to abide by laws when members of congress don't abide by them. pretty simple. we need to get a handle on it. >> congresswoman cammack. thanks for joining us. >> thank you so much. elizabeth: the founder of starbucks warns more stores could close due to rise in crime across the nation and a crew member of the hit tv show "law & order" shot dead in new york city l.a.p.d. warning citizens about a jump in follow on home robberyies and assaults in daylight. dr. oscar odom joins us next. re your windshield and recalibrate your advanced safety system. >> dad: looks great. thanks. >> tech: stay safe with safelite. schedule now. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪ >> tech: need to get your windshield fixed? safelite makes it easy. >> tech vo: you can schedule in just a few clicks. and we'll come to you with a replacement you can trust.

what is your reaction to this story. elijah dicken identified as the 22-year-old good samaritan bystander who shot the man outside after shopping mall in los angeles, he authorized under constitutional carry law. he jonathan, he had three handguns, fired 24 rounds and was neutralized in two minutes, not before he shot five people and three were killed. >> exactly. this good samaritan, the second amendment the right to bear arms. i don't see people now complaining about the right to bear arms when this person saved lives. he took action. he was legally carrying his weapon. he stopped the active shooter which was heroic and great event. looking at the active shooter event taking place around the country now, we should see we should want this to stop, put in all different types of measures to make this happened. the second amendment, the right to bear arms. he defended and he saved lives.
6:32 pm
elizabeth: that is the underreported story of this country, right? americans standing up and stopping evil and stopping violence, you know. people are calling them vigilantes but people are moving to protect themselves because of the collapse of standards in crime fighting. your final word? >> most definitely. look at the people who were at the incident with this person stopped the active shooter. their lives were saved. they are able to go home to their loved one this is a big thing. like we tell all the people, don't do the crime if you can't do the crime. see something, say something, that person was there and the active shooter and this person made sure he wasn't able to do anymore damage or casualties. elizabeth: dr. owed symptom, a pleasure to have you on. come back soon. >> thanks for having me. elizabeth: the white house accused of obstructing congress getting answers to the biden family shady overseas business deals. we have the steps house republicans are now taking. congressman darrell issa ahead

6:38 pm
biden family overseas deal-making. what is your take on this? >> well my take is when we retake the majority, the important thing is we get to the bottom of whether or not there is a special standard of avoiding criminal prosecution, irs prosecution, and the like, if your last name happens to be biden. elizabeth: you know, so the congressman is saying that the gop is collecting dozens of people and witnesses. they're seeing lawsuits pending against hunter biden, potentially the biden family plus bank records. is that what you're hearing? is that what you guys are doing? >> that is a part of what we'ree already been able to do is reach conclusions he was guilty of income tax evasion. it appears as though he will make a financial settlement when it fact it was millions of dollars that he hid from the government and hid from the eyes of people while he flu around on air force two with his father trading favors in china, ukraine, russia and the like.
6:39 pm
elizabeth: watch, let's watch representative comer with us. he made this stunning claim. watch this. >> well, we have discovered that hunter biden had 150 sir suppose activity reports filed against various bank accounts. any member of congress could request suspicious activity reports from treasury. once joe biden came into office before it became public that hunter biden had bank violations that no member of congress could have access to suspicious activity reports. elizabeth: who is doing that? >> specifically janet yellen. you go to the top. we requested three times from her three suspicious activity reports. she came back, we'll give them to you if you can get another democrat in the house to sign on to that. that is changing the rules in the middle of gaat i am. regardless no democrat wants to deal with the hunter biden situation. elizabeth: congressman what is your reaction to the treasury secretary saying a democrat has
6:40 pm
to sign off on this? this is, seems like it is politicizing congress' duties of oversight. >> well totally but what it is doing delaying the inevitable on behalf of the president of the united states. they can kick the can down the road until january 3rd of next year. they apparently will. at this point likely subpoena authority will pass to the majority and we'll get that but a lot more the fact is there are fisa warrants that were issued that clearly would include hunter biden for criminals that he dealt with, people that we have suspicions about or were investigated, all of that is going to be available come january 3rd but they can and are delaying this. i suspect they will delay when subpoenas arrive for weeks and months that is the modus operandi from the obama administration. i expect the same from this administration, especially when it comes to his own son. elizabeth: the critics say the
6:41 pm
democrats politicized weaponized doj, fbi, they ramp up hearings that information that goes against them. this is cynical stuff. white house logs and calendars show hunter biden vice visited and met with his father 30 times after overseas trips when the president was vice president? this raises serious questions about the truthfulness of the president's claims he knew nothing about this. of the russian met with russian oligarchs according to "new york post" in moscow. days after he returned he met with his father at the naval observatory. what is your final word on this. >> my final word the president is compromised because of false statement, and support for his drug addict, tax evading son. all of that is the part we know. the parts we don't know we'll discover when we have the ability to get those records. elizabeth: congressman issa. thanks for joining us. good to see you. >> thank you. elizabeth: the mayor of d.c.

♪. elizabeth: back with us now texas attorney general ken paxton. it is good to see you, sir, thanks for joining us. >> thank you. elizabeth: what would you like to say to democrat mayor of washington muriel bowser? she is saying local tax payers in washington should not have the pick-up the tab for the nearly 6,000 illegal aliens texas and arizona bused to washington? what do you say to that? >> i would say we feel your pain. we've been dealing with this since the biden administration came into office. she is dealing with i think 100
6:47 pm
people a day. we've been dealing with thousands a day for the last you know, over year-and-a-half. so we know exactly what she is talking about. it is nice to hear it from a democrat who is acknowledging when these people show up in large numbers in their areas it creates lots of issues. elizabeth: so you're saying this is d.c.'s wake-up call? they're saying they can't handle the influx. to your point about 100 coming per day. you're saying the border states already are dealing with housing, money, food, clothing and that basically you're saying that they are now finally getting a first-hand look what border communities have been dealing with every single day, is that what you're saying? >> i'm saying exactly that except they're getting a small taste of it. we get a large taste every day. it is not just the cost of it. it is the social cost of it. it is the economic cost of it. dealing with crime, dealing with drug importation. dealing with human trafficking. dealing with all of the problems. they're getting a small taste, just a small taste is causing them great discomfort and
6:48 pm
causing them to have severe problems. hopefully this will start sending a message to democrats we need to deal with this problem. elizabeth: do you see that having an impact? >> you know what? i'm not optimistic. i seen the biden administration. they know the facts. they know they're enabling cartels to do this. we have more drug smuggling, people are dying from fentanyl overdoses. they know there is more crime. they know the props. they are are willing to accept all the problems what they want which is more illegal immigration. i don't think it will change anything. elizabeth: to your point texas has born the brunt of illegal immigration. half of all illegal immigrants have been stopped in texas. your regional airlines and buses are overwhelmed. one non-profit group in yuma, arizona, they have to transport immigrants across state lines due to the influx.

jeh johnson obama's homeland secretary, said 1000 is a crisis. what u seeing now, a daythousand, 8,000. >> he knows it's a crisis. a thousand a day. seven or eight times that. if they care joe biden would come to texas to help us start dealing with the problem. he has not shown up one time to address this issue and doesn't take it seriously or at the very least, has no interest in it. it is very disappointing to me when we see the consequences of this affecting human life, people dying because he has chosen these policies. elizabeth: so he has been in office, he has been in d.c. since the nixon, nixon white house. he has never been to the border ever. you know you got democrat representative henry cuellar of texas, he is saying in the laredo area down to the valley, only 30% of border agents are on the border working. the rest are doing processing administrative work. so that has the drug cartels
6:50 pm
pouring in. your final word? >> i feel sorry for the border agents. they're not allowed to do their jobs. they have been taken off the border, taken away from what they were hired to do, the process, that is exactly right. they're doing logistics. they're not stopping illegal immigration. in fact the cartels are bringing people to the border patrol. they're not running from them anymore. that is the new policy of the biden administration. bring them, we'll take them. elizabeth: ken paxton, thanks for joining us. good to see you. >> thank you. elizabeth: the powerful new voter base, it is school board parents now mobilizing for the midterms. we take it on with byron york and jimmy failla next on "the evening edit". i had been giving koli kibble. it never looked like real food. with the farmer's dog you can see the pieces of turkey. it smells like actual food. as he's aged, he's still quite energetic and youthful. i really attribute that to diet. get started at longlivedogs.com

district policies her children and their families. >> parents realize the american government doesn't work well and while we were busy raising our kids and working, we saw during covid elected officials advocated their authority so parents are ready to take the reins school districts across the country to sit on school boards and field we were able to give parents a lot of good skills and resources to be effective candidates. >> cardona trying to engage more the parents as well with the creation of a parents group of his own, national parents and families engagement counsel will serve as an important link between families and caregivers, education advocates and their school communities. conservative parent groups have filed a lawsuit claiming that group is politically biased. elizabeth: good to see you, thank you for your journalism.
6:56 pm
texas attorney general ken paxton. great to have you back on, what was your reaction when you heard that report? >> it excites me because i think it's true during covid parents were able to see what was going on in schools, critical race theory, sexual education and library books in the schools, i think parents are stepping where they need to and it's a good sign for education if parents are involved. elizabeth: that is the irony, democrat pandemic shut down foreclosures gave a wake up to parents, they got a firsthand look at what their children were learning through virtual classrooms over zoom. the parents didn't like what they saw and now they are mobilizing and parents are running for school boards and winning. >> i've seen in texas, we saw in virginia, education became a key issue, i think it will be a key issue in november and i've seen it across my state. i just got done with the primary and so many people were running, parents who had never been in
6:57 pm
politics or in their children's education are now getting engaged, one of the best things going on in america. elizabeth: what you see happening inside schools and what children are being taught? >> i've had to do with it because i've had to try to stop some of it. i think schools violate state law teaching critical race theory which texas is not allowed according to state legislature. i've seen them try to teach sex education outside of balance and we've had this threatened to sue, who tries to make parents aware so they can step in and fight school boards and superintendents that have gone awry. elizabeth: it's interesting the revolt of last year, democrats terry mcauliffe loss gubernatorial election, he said i don't think parents should tell schools what they should teach and glenn youngkin beat him in virginia so when you see people from north korea, china

and people from dictatorships in our nation saying wait a second, our children were indoctrinated, they were told not to think out of the box or have their own way of thinking. they are told to think of certain ways, those individuals are saying we don't like seeing what's happening in the united states. >> and they are right. it's in the wrong direction. we need an education, approving what's being taught to the children and the idea terror terry mcauliffe needs to stay out of the education has got to be the most ludicrous thing i've ever heard a politician say in the reality is i think parents, i've never seen parents more involved in the last thing i would want to do is step in the way of parents caring about their children. elizabeth: was interesting, you see aggressive agendas in colleges and universities trickling down into elementary schools so there's a lot of stuff to talk about racialism in
6:59 pm
schools. that's teaching children to pit one another against each other based on the color of their skin which is exactly what martin of the king said you should not do so parents are saying we are looking at our kids schools, we are not liking what we are seeing. >> i grew up in an integrated school and to me it was not about race, it was about how people acted in their character and i think that's the direction i think most americans would want their children to learn about as opposed to this idea whatever your skin color is is an indication of what kind of person you are, it's not the way our country was done on. elizabeth: the biden white house tries to get the d.o.j. to go after the school board parents of domestic terrorists when they spoke out. >> that was one of the most insidious things i've ever seen, but like germany and this idea parents are going to be investigated because they are
