ever for fourth and 8th graders. white house officials accused of colluding with big tech. dr. fauci and former white house press secretary jen saki among those to be deposed. i'm david asman in for elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit" starts right now. david: taking a quick look at your money, stocks notching big gains with the stocks closing 400 points higher. a mind game over the economy, inflation and the deficit. the president making unsubstantiated claims about all those issues. just this weekend touting what he claims are his administration's historic efforts to bring down the deficit despite over 100% of that decline in the deficit is the result of shrinking or
6:03 pm
expiring covid relief programs. hillary vaughn is on capitol hill with the very latest on this. hillary? reporter: good evening, david. well the president is taking credit for a large drop in the deficit unhis watch but that does not mean that the federal government came close to staying under budget. we still didn't have enough money to cover our bills. president bade ended the fiscal year a trillion dollars short. new government spending that we did not have money to pay for putting it on the nation's credit card. president biden: today my administration announced this year the deficits fell by $1.4 trillion, the largest one-year drop in american history, the largest ever decline in the federal deficit. this record deficit reduction includes the cost of my student loan plan. reporter: the committee for a responsible federal budget says it is not president's biden's policies that dropped the deficit, it was expired covid relief programs that led to the relief.
6:04 pm
the covid was part of trillions of new spending that biden passed under his administration. biden overall approved five trillion dollars in spending in his first two years. but, david, president biden criticized republicans plan promise to cut down on spending if they take control after the midterm elections saying that would crash the u.s. economy and put the u.s. in default. david? david: hillary vaughn, thank you very much. despite historic inflation and the extreme deficit, president biden insisting the economy is quote, strong as hell, telling americans to be happy they are in the united states and not in another country. for reaction to all this, welcome fox news contributor liz peek, along with "washington examiner" correspondent byron york. good to see you both. thank you very much for being here. byron, first of all, it is so clear that biden is not responsible for the deficit reduction. i want to spell out what the committee for a responsible budget said and i'm quoting
6:05 pm
here, the decline in the deficit over the past fiscal year is more than entirely the result of waning covid relief and not of historic deficit reduction by president biden as the white house claims. in fact the president's actions toe date have actually increased deficits by $4.8 trillion through 2031. one final comment, even democrats like steve rattner says, i'm quoting a tweet he put out, the end of covid relief accounted for all of biden's historic deficit reduction in fy-22. we need long-term fiscal sustainability, not apples to orange budget gimmicks. how can he get away with this? there is no bragging rights here for the president? >> he just said it. this is the most audacious thing we heard from him. call it chutzpah if you want to. the worrisome thing is the deficit that is left after this wonderful relief that joe biden
6:06 pm
has brought us, still $1.4 trillion deficit that is kind of the new normal here, a brief history of this, deficits went over a trillion dollars back during the financial crisis in 2009, 10, 11. then they went down for a while. at the time it was predicted they would be going up where we are now due to the retirement of the baby boomers. then covid hit. they just went through the roof to levels nobody had ever seen before. and since, when it comes down a bit, we're now in deficit terms, where we were in places that worried us terribly during the financial crisis. david: that's right. >> is this the new normal under joe biden? david: i suppose it is. liz, people out there care a lot more about inflation than they do about deficits. that is something they see every time they open their wallet. they see how much more things are costing. but there is a strange denial. not just among, it is not just in the white house, but you see it by democrats everywhere, but
6:07 pm
starting at the white house, a denial that it's out there as strong as it really is. let me play a little montage of what some democrats have been saying recently. roll tape. president biden: look at what i have inherited and what i have done. >> people talk about inflation as we heard there, we have to change that subject. inflation is a global phenomenon. it's not the, the fight is not about inflation. it's about the cost of living. >> i will remind people too of a history lesson that there in the 1930s germany there was a candidate, there was a party that said they were going to do something about inflation and they did do something about inflation. inflation went away but so did the democracy in germany in the 1930s up until 1945. david: so liz, people who complain about inflation are really nazis, that is what we're hearing from democrats? >> i'm trying to figure out the difference between the cost of living and inflation. of course they want to change the subject, david. look voters are not that stupid.
6:08 pm
they know exactly what they're spending on rent, on food, on cars, et cetera and it has gone through the roof since joe biden took office. why? this is what's interesting to me, voters are connecting the dots, they did it early on, between massive spending, deficits and inflation. they know, in fact a recent emerson poll came out, 42% blame biden person for inflation. they can blow smoke of all places it is coming from. sure, oil prices are up because of joe biden. the war in ukraine has hurt but the fact of the matter joe biden has overseen i pin it on the american rescue plan, the $1.9 trillion plan, program that came out when the economy was already growing at 6%. all this stuff about how he inherited a bad economy, it simply isn't true. good news is people know it. david: i don't know if they
6:09 pm
remember, byron, as liz said, he inherited an economy that was growing at 6%. we've now had two negative quarters this year. we had 1.4%. inflation. we now have about 8 1/2% inflation. he has got it exactly backwards. >> listen, i think what we're seeing from the president is signs of desperation as the midterm elections near. every democrat seems now to concede that that brief period they had in the late summer in which they thought that reaction to the supreme court's abortion decision would save them from defeat in november. that period is just over and america remembers again that inflation is very, very high and you just can't tell people not to think about it. david: yeah. >> we should also say, there are other things going on that are terribly disturbing to americans, not just the prospect of recession in the future, but
6:10 pm
this terrible decrease in their 401(k)s. david: oh, god. >> if you have -- david: i can't look. >> if you have your life save national a 401(k) you have lost a quarter of it in the last year. david: i trained myself not to look. liz, there is another disturbing thing that we're facing by the way and that's the signs of less and less cognitive ability by the president. we saw another example of that from msnbc in an interview he did with them over the weekend. let me play that and get your reaction. roll tape. reporter: i have not made that formal decision it is my intention, my intention to run again and we have time to make that decision. >> dr. biden is for it? mr. president? >> dr. biden thinks that, my wife thinks that, that i, that we're, that we're doing something very important and i shouldn't walk away from it. david: you know a lot of people thought the president actually
6:11 pm
had fallen asleep there for a second, liz. other people said maybe he was confused by the question. what do you make from that? >> well, look, i think it is now majority of the country, majority of democrats think he is not mentally fit to be prosecutor run again, david. all he has to do take a cognitive test. those are available. president trump did it just to put aside rumors and speculation about his mental health. joe biden can do that to end the conversation but he cannot. david: i don't think he will before the election. liz, great to see you. byron, thank you very much. >> thanks, david. david: sure enough. as the new nation's report card reveals a historic plunge in student progress since the pandemic and the dire impact of school closures test scores show the largest math decline ever for fourth and 8th graders. plus video showing a man pushed on to new york city subway tracks again as reports that

6:17 pm
jackie: here to take it up with us, former nypd lieutenant darrin porcher. david: thanks for being here. we want up to date folks a little bit on the alleged attacker in this latest subway attack. the details we have is actually what we were expecting. he has been arrested at least 14 times before the latest attack. the arrests started back in the early '90s when he was a teen, police say. police say he was then charged with murder when he was only 16 years old. i mean details will come out but it really fits a pattern. again of what is causing this crime spurt. not only here in new york but all across the nation. it is this revolving door justice system that we have where people who should behind bars aren't. >> you're absolutely correct. we're operating a catch-and-release stream in the state of new york and it started with governor cuomo. and now we have governor hochul
6:18 pm
who in essence is acting as cuomo 2.0 and continuing the blatant disregard for public safety in connection with bail reform. we need a plausible strategy. we need something that focuses on precision-based policing. that is placing officers in areas where you have the greatest propensity for crime. that is clearly not the case. no one is at the helm, pulling the switches accordingly providing help to the police department. the police officers are subject matter experts they understand the dynamic of crime reduction, politicians at the forefront, like mayor adams fail to let the police department do what is necessary as new yorkers to keep us safe. david: they say, the mayor says he wants to beef up policing in subways and other high crime areas but how do you beef up the police force when you're losing 4,000 police officers? that is more than 10% of the entire force.
6:19 pm
>> the loss in relation to the attrition rate is a real problem and they're not making any substantive changes in the hiring process. the police officers across the nation are being denigrated orville noised orvillainized. we need to retool the mechanisms of equipment, to have the appropriate backfill in play. bigger than that, not just having resources but the accurate deployment of resources in these areas where we experience the greatest propensity of crime. we look what is happening in the subway, it is clearly not happening. >> lieutenant, i don't suppose you're surprised the fact there are some police officers leaving. they have been defunded. they have been disrespected. in some ways the disrespecting is even worse than the defunding. it used to be something that everybody, all new yorkers were proud of, what the men and women in blue were doing for them, to
6:20 pm
protect their lives. we haven't seen that from public officials, from mayors, from district attorneys, also, in fact just the opposite of that, a disrespecting. >> you're absolutely right. the social contract needs to be upheld and the terminal piece of that would be police officers and district attorneys. the police officers are not being supported by government. the district attorneys such as alvin bragg in the city of new york are not upholding the rule of law and prosecuting people accordingly. so when you look at the bifurcation between the two entities it is clear that you are going to have meteoric rise in crime. that being said, when we speak to the testament of backfilling the officers that are leaving the department, it is clear that the police department and city of new york needs to do more, however they failed to recognize the flaws in the strategy. we as new yorkers are suffering as a result. david: by the way, we got to run, lee zeldin running for
6:21 pm
governor, says the first thing he would do as governor because the governor has this authority would be to fire alvin bragg. he is another one ever these soros-funded prosecutors very far to the left who lets the criminals out. would you be in favor of that firing alvin bragg. >> whole-heartedly but that is just the start. we need to get lee zeldin elected as the governor of new york, to revolutionize the trajectory of the crime that is out of control which started under the cuomo administration, transferred to kathy hochul and now it is the time for to us change the dynamic and the trajectory needs to focus on us having a peaceful and tranquil state in the state of new york. david: yeah from your lips, lieutenant, great to see you again. again, thank you for your service. i was always grateful to the police, not more than i am now. it's toughest job, one of the toughest jobs in america. i appreciate you being here, lieutenant. thanks very much. meanwhile a federal court

6:27 pm
graders were proficient in math. now it is only 30%. it is not just math, but math and reading. in every state in the country there was no improvement in any way in math or reading progress. no states improved. only got worse. we talked to jeb bush be the former governor of florida today on fox. he said what can i say? it's bad. >> it's a disaster. i guess it should be expected if you spend two years out of the classroom in many cases, we had a problem before and it has gotten a lot worse. so this should be a call to arms. reporter: david, if you take a look this report didn't specifically address the lockdowns but if you look at them, the report says in high poverty areas much worse performance. well those high poverty areas had 22 weeks on average of lost learning. low poverty areas about 13 weeks. and so you know, you do the

6:29 pm
schools had no loss and did much better. one of the reasons they opened up mostly full in-person learning in fall of 2020. i think there is another reason for it. these schools are schools of choice. parents have decided these schools are the best fit for their child and it would make sense that their children would learn better in those schools. so we know what doesn't work because we've been doing the same thing over and over again for very poor results. now we can see something that does work. david: right. >> maybe it would be a good time to stop funding the systems, stop the top-down approach where you're trying to fix it from the top down. how about the bottom up? let's go, something in the catholic church called subsidiary, go local to fix the problem. this is very local. let's go down to the child. let's fund that child. let the parent who is the first educator of the child, let them look at their child, see where they need to be, where they need to catch up.

maybe they need to hire a tutor. maybe they need an online class. there are places in country where parents can do that new hampshire is one place. arizona passed something called universal esas. meaning in new hampshire how it works, the state take as portion of their education spending they put into an account the parent can then decide, we go in as a scholarship provider, we go in to say this is something you can spend it on. it doesn't get spent on ridiculous things but parents decide and it works. david: but the cost benefit analysis kills me. you have parochial schools are doing much better than the public schools yet parochial schools cost 1/3 of the amount. in new york we pay per pupil about $30,000 for education k-12. parochial schools 1/3 of that yet they're doing much better. what does that tell you? it tells you who money is being misspent. >> it tells you the money is being misspent. this is not a money problem.
6:31 pm
david: i understand. >> all the covid money didn't get spent. david: $200 million in k-12 spending. >> people have common sense. i saw what happened in ian, i saw people come together to quickly fix things. we need the same spirit to this problem to do something quickly. david: this is called school choice. we have a model, school choice, which even some democrat politicians are becoming in favor of. those who were condemning it they saw how badly the public schools based during the pandemic. does that give you hope? >> it does give me hope. i don't think these democratic souls are necessarily brave. i think they have taken the political, tested the political winds, said you know what? i think i better get on the right side of this issue. remember what happened in virginia? youngkin won on this issue. parents have also come awake and come alive said you know what? i don't like what is happening with my child's education. you can see it in school board races around the country. san francisco they took back the
6:32 pm
school board. if it can happen in san francisco it can happen anywhere. david: you know what i love? school choice used to be kind of an abstract model for education but now people say, see how clearly, because of the pandemic how things didn't work out with the present system and how important it is to put parents in charge. that is what school choice is all about. >> it is really parental choice, you're right. putting parents in charge. parents are the first educators. without, none of these problems, even if you get tons of tutors and, you have to have parents involved. i mean that's fundamental. david: yes. what is fundamental we have to take a break, darling last, thank you so. the childrens scholarship fund, folks. google it. it is a great organization. >> thank you so much, thank you. david: the border surge growing at an alarming rate under president biden. also white house officials have been accused of colluding with big tech. dr. fauci and former white house press secretary jen saki among those who may be deposed.

196was there in the press room with president trump in the days of the covid pandemic talk tock public. they say that biden and administration colluded with companies related information about covid. fauci, former press secretary jen psaki and other insisted administration will sit for depositions. his name is judge terry dougherty. he was appointed by president trump. he took the bench in 28. the attorney generals from louisiana and miss sir filed the lawsuit in may. they argued in paper that the biden administration colluded with big tech not only stopping free speech on covid origins but also information about the hunter biden laptop story. the president's son has into the been charged charged with a cris under federal investigation and has been for years. we reported in recent weeks the u.s. attorney in delaware is waiting formally indicting
6:39 pm
biden. we reached out to fauci's office and the white house. no comment. >> david spunt, thank you very much. joining us house ranking member, congressman jim jordan. thank you for being here. what kills me so many stories that were censored possibly with collusion from the white house and other democrats were, turned out to be 100% correct. i mean whether it was dealing with the pandemic or dealing with hunter biden. >> the biggest purvey record of misinformation was biden. big tech colluded with big government on the hunter biden story. mark zuckerberg said that, when the fbi came to him, be on on te lookout for russian misinformation. the letter from 51 intel directors. we need to get to that bottom of that collusion. we know they told us all kinds of things about the virus that turned out not to be true.
6:40 pm
it sort makes sense they were telling us things not true about the virus they were probably working with big tech like the fbi was working with big tech on the hunter biden story. this is good news. have fauci under oath to testify, we plan to do that if the american people put us in the majority. the fact that it is happening from two good attorney generals. i served with jeff landry. he is a good man. this is good news. david: if republicans, if i heard you right, if republicans take over the house you're prepared to subpoena dr. fauci, jen psaki, who else? >> we're prepared to get to the information that the country gets the fact and the truth but never forget fauci knew on january 31st, 2020, likely came from a lab. he gets e-mails from dr. christian anderson a virologist he has been handing out our tax dollars.
6:41 pm
virus looks engineered. not from evolutionary theory. that is fancy way of saying this came from a lab. so, that is what he tells him. i actually probably, i think it probably came from a lab. he wasn't told us it was not gain of function research. he told us it wasn't our tax dollars at wuhan institute of virology on and on. he told us vaccinated couldn't get it. they told us the vaccinated couldn't transmit it. on and on it goes. we need to make sure they get all the documents they had and all the information, frankly i want to see, this news came out last week, david, his top assistant, dr. auchincloss, his top assistant worked with him for years makes a ton of money making trades january 2020 making stock trades. the country didn't get that information. that is something else. david: very important. absolutely. finally, we don't have much time, unequal amplification of justice, ranking member of the
6:42 pm
judiciary committee it must get you somebody like steve bannon get as sentence for something eric holder and other democrats just walked away from. how do you address that in congress? >> no, you're exactly right. the country is so sick of the double standard. there is one rule for comey, mccabe, strzok, page -- david: donald trump. >> different rule if you're friends of president trump. if you're a pro-lifer that is different than the people who have been firebombing and vandalizing churches and crisis pregnancy centers. we're sick of all of that. david: it has, without equal justice applied under the law, you lose all sense of your democracy. that's really what dictators thrive on. >> sure do. david: is to strip justice from the rule of law. great to see you again, congressman. thank you very much. maybe you will be chairman next time i talk to you, who knows. thank you very much. appreciate it. the border surge growing at an alarming rate under president

attention from inflation and buy student votes. >> it is not student loan forgiveness. it is not debt forgiveness. it is debt transference. we have many hard-working iowans picking up the tab for young people now who signed on the dotted line they would repay these student loans. that those hard-working taxpayers are now picking up the tab for all of those other folks. reporter: but the president not backing off his 400 billion-dollar student loan forgiveness plan. president biden: the point is we can afford this, we can afford this. one of the things we did in order to pay for a lot of these things we thought it was about time that some of the super wealthy corporations begin to pay a fair share. reporter: from the white house perspective this is important before the midterm elections to sway student votes as well get some of that student passion into the election. of the back to you. david: right. edward lawrence thank thank youy much for reaction joining me texas congresswoman beth
6:49 pm
van duyne. congresswoman, good to see you. where do they go from here, the biden administration is quote, moving full speed ahead by the lawsuits? >> law be damned they will move ahead. the congress has the ability to define how dollars get spent, not the white house. hopefully the president will figure this out because of course we'll make him. talk about the super wealthy corporations. there are universities with multibillion-dollar endowments that are still not using those endowments to look at the future of their success of their students. i have a perfect example. i graduated from cornell university, 95, wasn't that long ago but i graduated graduated i, tuition alone was $61,000. the average household income was about $30,000. fast forward to last year where the tuition costs are now over $62,000 and the average
6:50 pm
household income is only 70 grand. cornell is sitting on a 10 billion-dollar -- david: unbelievable. >> 10 billion-dollar endowment. last year alone they saw investment returns of 42%. when is that going into the future of their students? why are taxpayers the only ones at risk here? david: congresswoman, you know that if you subsidize these debts, what you will have are even higher tuitions. that will give them a free ride to raise tuition even more. >> yeah. they're not, there is no incentive for universities not to increase their tuition, not to increase on capital improvements and on increases in admin over professors who they are teaching. we have to figure out how to tie in the dollars they're getting paid for federal invests into their endowments. we're actually drafting legislation right now that would do just that. if they're graduating students after four years can't get a job because they're not teaching them marketable skills, taxpayer dollars should not be the only
6:51 pm
ones at risk. they should be risking their endowment to help pay for that. david: yeah. >> we'll draft legislation -- david: you mentioned the fact that congress are the folks who are supposed to, that is where spending is supposed to begin by congressional vote on a particular thing. not by executive action. we went through the history of all executive actions. we couldn't find anything more than $6 billion of money had been moved by a president. this is 100 times that. but another group that really has standing on all of this, are folks, like the dad who confronted elizabeth warren in 2020 in iowa, upset about her forgiveness program. play the sound bite. get your reaction. >> ask one question. my daughter is getting out of school. i saved all my money. i didn't get any student loans. will i get money back? >> of course not. >> so you will pay for people who didn't save money in those of us who did the right thing who got screwed?
6:52 pm
david: we'll wrap, congresswoman. he has a great point. what about the standing of people who paid off the bills by working three or four jobs? >> people who do the right thing of this administration are being punished. people who do the wrong thing are benefiting. we need to stop that. hopefully november 8th the american public is completely, figured it out, will come to the polls to see a huge red wave across the country. david: i think that dad has standing in this case as well as anybody else. good to see you, congresswoman. very much, appreciate it. the border surge growing at an alarming rate under president biden. national border patrol council's chris cabrera next on "the evening edit." >> 1.7 million individuals last year. another 1.72.7. over four 1/2 million individuals encountered at the border that will be over five million individual in just two years. ♪.

trunk they found 10 bundles of marijuana, they arrested the driver, an 18-year-old u.s. citizen who smirked at the camera, fiscal year 2022 ended as deadliest here on record here, 856 migrants lost their lives in southern border. back to you. david: bill melugin thank you. >> for more on the new record and border patrol apprehensions we welcome chris cabrera. great to see you, focusing that death number, 8 p 56 deaths, donald trump's policy, successful policies to secure the border were called by his critics inhumane, what is more inhumane than that 856 death number. >> i don't think there anything more.
6:59 pm
i think eclipse that number in years to come if the government does not act, we don't know about those who lose their life on the way here or up in the ranches that have not been found yet. david: and the inhumanity of the drug smugglers. the same cartels that move the people moving drugs, they are responsible for those tremendous death numbers on fentanyl. >> yes, they are, and to some extent your government, if they do nothing to secure the border, turning a blind eye to it, they are responsible for it as well. david: what do we did about it? what is the bottom line? the solution? >> you know, there needs to be legislative action with mandatory detention and removal to stop the incentive to come here, once we get that done then we set the ground work to fix the broken system. david: what about the border

agents, moral must be horrible, mayorkas knew for example. that the whipping charges against the mounted agents were wrong, he said them anyway, and had the president repeat them, how does that make you feel? >> you know, if mayorkas had any shred of self respect he would resign from his post, he is largely ineffective at his job and he has no business there. david: we praise you, and praise the work that you do chris cabrera, i believe most americans do. thank you very much for being here with us, appreciate it. >> all right. thank you. david: i'm david asman in for elizabeth m mac macdonald you are watching the eveni "evening edit," have a wonderful evening. >> hello you, hello monday,
