okay, wall street economists keep saying gas prices do not have to be high at all, the problem is part supply. biden's energy policies cutting

into supplies and look at this, opec planning a major cut in oil output coming up possibly this week. kelly o'grady has more from l.a. >> always good to see you. this would be a major blow to our supply challenges, shrink supply and oil prices will rise as we head into a long winter. consider slashing production, expected reduction is 1 million barrels a day, that would be historic cut. the biggest since the beginning of covid. oil prices are soaring, energy analysts predict we could reach over $100 a barrel in the next few months. this reduction would be in addition to ending release of 1 million a day from strategic petroleum reserves, biden administration has been depleting those in service of short-term relief at the pump

but 2 million deficit would likely erase progress into the midterms. we are dealing with supply challenges laying out in california. over 2.5 the average, 6 cents off the record high. gas prices are big driver of inflation so expect the number two storm if the trend continues. opec plus canceled joint technical meeting set to take place tomorrow, that group normally advises opec on market fundamentals to all eyes will be on the policy meetings set to take place later this week. elizabeth: always terrific reporting from kelly o'grady. joining us now, economic committee congressman jodey arrington. we are going to see higher gas and fuel prices heading to winter, what is your reaction? 's. >> the energy market is in global market and we've seen the manipulation of the markets distortions that come with it by the likes of the oligarch, middle east and places like russia. prior to the covid pandemic we saw the price war between the

two but as just a geopolitical reality and there's are market realities. those are somewhat out of our control. what is in our control is to give certainty to an industry to produce more fossil fuel and get us out of recession and lower prices on consumers devastated especially working families and give us energy dominance, not just to protect america but america's interest and allies around the world. elizabeth: but we are not doing any of that. i want your reaction to this, biden knew that official and admits the white house has been working with google to boost pro climate change stories higher in google search results in very stories that questions that take on climate change.

>> we partnered with google for example, if you google climate change, at the top of your search, you will get all kinds of un resources. we started this partnership when we were shocked to see when we googled climate change we were getting incredibly distorted information at the top so we are becoming more proactive. we own -- we should know and the platforms themselves also do. elizabeth: we own the science. your take? >> they manipulate the science, i'm not surprised google is in cahoots with this administration to advance this radical climate agenda but devastating everyone. there's nobody untouched by this regressive tax energy inflation and like i said will make it difficult to come out of recession. it self inflicted and driven by a radical view of climate, human

contribution and the trillions the climate alarmists want to spend which would bankrupt the country in the process in this radical transition. elizabeth: mit came out with a study saying if we did everything they want with climate change, it would hardly move the needle over the next century. a fraction of what they're talking about. california overregulation, we talked about this led to the highest gas prices in the nation, kelly o'grady reported, $7 or more, he will see the governor gavin newsom wants even more taxes on oil and gas but then you will see him at the is lack of supply that's why gas is going up and a gop candidate for california state control call for an added on how california spent its gas tax in california.

>> the fact is they are ripping you off, record profits coming at your expense and that's why today calling for a windfall tax to ensure profits go back to millions of californians paying for this oil company extortion. earlier today i directed air resources board to make early transition to winter blend gasoline and should immediately increase supply. elizabeth: he telling oil refineries to sell more polluted winter gas ahead of schedule? what is your take on this? >> it's consistent with the democrat party across the country at all levels and blame vladimir putin for covid oil for gouging and it's there policies and ultimately they will have to get down to the facts deal honestly with the american people but if you tax and regulate something, you get less. if you get less, there will be

demand for it, he will pay more and that's why a third of the people coming to texas are from california and why california is losing its best talents both in people and jobs and job creators and that's the story of california. elizabeth: the criticism has been world leaders, they say they will cut emissions by as much as they can realistically back out of. india and china have been ramping up wiping out u.s. gains reducing emissions and gas powering emissions down, driving emissions down and congressman, u.s. tech and manufacturing are stepping up doing it, wyoming is about to break ground on the storage product to take greenhouse gases out of the air, u.s. tech and manufacturing second step up here. final word? >> the horizontal drilling and

camp poses direct national security threat to america. >> i worry about somebody slipping out of syria coming back from afghanistan now a tear safe haven getting through the southern border in the middle and killing a bunch of us. >> hundreds of thousands of syrian refugees live in camps funded by u.s. dollars, followed to the united nations. lawmakers including graham and democrat jeannie shaheen many accountability from the un. last month u.s. forces found 300 isis fighters hiding during a raid that carried out after ice burned down the un school. they uncovered the tunnel system built under that camp. elizabeth: thank you so much for that story, appreciate it. we will move on to ted williams, former d.c. police detective. great to have you on, this story is so disturbing, the funeral is this week for lieutenant russo, the emt worker and 9/11 this

among those dead was 3-year-old child, a victim of a road rage killing. in virginia we had a guy who shot and killed the 2-year-old child and he's going to be released on bond or was released on bond, a 3-year-old child in a barbershop with his father, s shot. all of these are victims of crime. elizabeth: women and children are getting shot. we don't hear them standing up saying enough crime was dropping for 30 years thanks to good men and women like you. you fought hard for this and now it's hitting historic highs. within weeks of new york state no cash bail reform law in 2020, reports of more than 2000 career criminals released back onto the

streets and now estimates that nearly 375 were rearrested this year by nypd, robbery, car theft and more. crimes rose 34% it was dropping three decades. illinois did the same no cash bail. >> what we are finding is these legislators and various venues are friends of criminals. in philadelphia to date we've had 400 homicides. we got a d.a. soft on crime there. we got a d.a. in california, george gascon, very soft on crime. we've got to do something, take back our cities. we cannot continue to live this way. elizabeth: prosecutions for gun possession in philadelphia dropped by half, now over 1000 have been killed in philadelphia in the past 20 months but soft

on crime d.a. larry saying my policies are working. they are not. watch bill clinton warned against this, it will hurt democrats and the midterms and you will see democrats and john federman ignoring that saying release murderers from prison. >> we lost the last two weeks of the 2020 election on different police and socialism and that was our fault. >> he said something remarkable i agree with, he said we could reduce prison population by a third and not make anyone less safe in pennsylvania and that's a profound statement. >> i hope it will lead to a conversation that will free close to 1200 people. elizabeth: 1200 murderers. the voters are saying enough and we see washington post abc, gallup polls saying they don't like this at all. >> you are right. i got to agree with the former

president there, clinton when he says this so-called movement out there will hurt democrats in this coming election. we are all americans into need to be concerned about crimes. we are so divided in this country. elizabeth: is not a red or blue problem, it's common sense problem. it's always a pleasure having you on and we will have you back on again soon. even house democrats are going after speaker pelosi for blocking congress is stop trading but vanderbilt until after the midterms and after pelosi's husband made a lucrative stock trade while she's in office so much so they are up in the 1%. politico reports the biden team is now questioning whether biden

whistleblowers and everything we've talked about, let's criminal in nature, people in the white house no in january if republicans take the majority they will face the reality of what real oversight looks like. elizabeth: political report confidence in the white house, house republicans will do over beach with investigations the gop went back to the house but will backfire. but in the same story they say if biden is preparing to seek reelection, we don't know if you will, they are saying he might, the first lady will have outside influence and they may not let him run again because of what are finding out about the biden family working on deals to sell natural gas, reserves of five u.s. states are china and u.s. drillers. >> it's even worse than that, that's bad enough but we believe they were trying to negotiate deals with china to purchase interest in american drillers hundred biden negotiated the

deal with an american company in congo to sell minds to china which gives them further advantage in the electrical car. this biden family has always chosen adversaries to deal with and they always deal with an american last policy. elizabeth: which u.s. drillers, what were they talking about? >> according to the use of lo lower, the presentation hundred biden had the map in chinese trying to sell natural gas to china, they were wanting to buy interest in the drillers. elizabeth: do we know? >> he said some names and we will bring them out in testimony and depositions and republic majority and i believe our job is to provide credible oversight. we've got to make sure

child for this is nancy pelosi herself whose husband paul pelosi made tens of millions of dollars trading not just stocks but options on stocks which is a different proposition in your listeners need to know trading options means you are looking for a quick result, a very quick item of news or events that can yield a profit and when paul pelosi but options on nvidia, semiconductor company days before congress was set to award semiconductor companies in a bill, $52 billion, that's outstanding. elizabeth: we've been tracking the questions about the timing of the stock trades. you got missouri democrat emmanuel cleaver supporting the house band, he's upset with pelosi what she's doing and feller saying the party now

classified information probably didn't help her. but nothing helped her so much as having made that decision can that james comey unilaterally made to say that they wouldn't actually pursue anything with her misif handling of classified documents. so all this other stuff, it all just kind of washes out. elizabeth: it's interesting how pointed and withering obama was. he's saying hillary not campaigning in wisconsin, hillary not campaigning in michigan or going to union halls, bill clinton getting on then-a.g. loretta lynch's airplane amid hillary's e-mail scandal, so what this also is indicating too, there's a split between the obama and biden camps. we knew that. and a split between the obama and clinton camps. so the top leadership of the democrat party is not as coalesced as people may think. >> not at all. it's so funny too how these people willing to say so much when talking to their buddies in the corporate media that they wouldn't with say out loud in front of people. then you had it followed up from obama many to trump who would

say everything publicly about how he felt about intraparty disputes, and now we're back to this era of shivving people in the back but doing it, you know, quietly -- elizabeth: you know, they've been making divisive, critics, political wash dogs are saying these top democrats have been dividing america, making divisive comments about democrat voters, about republican voters, you know? just saying divisive comments across the board. and then being divisive behind the scenes about each other. >> yeah. but there was also the problem that he was saying that he wanted these reporters to do his bidding and to be worried if the department of justice would ever go after any democrat. that was also in conversation. he was at that time overseeing the department of justice that had been weaponized to go after the trump campaign and would continue, and now we're in this horrific place we are now where the department of justice is completely weaponized. elizabeth: yeah. >> these democrats are all over the place, they just usually get

covered up. elizabeth: let's watch hbo's bill maher saying the real problem with the biden ticket is the vice president. watch. >> what i could see is replacing the vice president -- [laughter] and it didn't seem to work out, and i don't know, that's been done before on a ticket. i think she's a bad politician and, i mean, i don't think -- i think she's a very bright person, but, i don't know. i can see them typing that. because a -- them doing that. because a lot of the problem with biden being old is, oh, if he dies, you know, you're going to get this person. the democratic party are so boxed in by identity politics that you cannot con steve of a democratic ticket that doesn't have a woman, person of color on it. elizabeth: yeah. and then the vice president ended up getting criticized for saying fema hurricane help should be based on equity. your final word. >> you know, she is cartoonishly bad as a vice president. but the real problem with the democrats is that they all have
