"the evening edit" starts right now. ♪. elizabeth: welcome to the show. we begin with stocks ending down. fears of more aggressive fed rate hikes after a strong adp jobs report showing 235,000 jobs added in december. that is better than expected. plus we've got blackouts in northern california from a conveyor belt of major storms. major power outages there. at least two deaths reported. now let's get right to this, we welcome back to the show, former acting u.s. attorney general matthew whitaker. attorney general, good to see

you. first this story, president biden he is now bringing back trump's title 42 policy. he has been fighting that in court. that is the pandemic border policy but attorney general, when you heard the president wants to start rapidly deporting illegal immigrants from cuba, haiti, nicaragua, venezuela under that policy, what was your reaction when you heard this? >> well, it is, first of all it is too little too late. it is good to be with you, liz. i don't believe the president puts out a new policy, looks a lot like policies we had in place in the trump administration. i wonder why we've been wasting our time the last two years, making americans less safe? we have stressed border patrol agents beyond the breaking point. i look for some of these plans, people can apply online, come to the country via airplane. i don't think that is good policy. what you need to do is have a system that works for the american people. we talked about this many times, liz.

ultimately i don't trust joe biden want to do anything other than get rid of videos coming out of especially texas of all of these hundreds of illegal border crossings every day all day. elizabeth: he is confusing the issue. he is talking about an app where you can preapply for asylum from overseas. he is opening up a new legal path for 30,000 illegal immigrants a month from those countries that he is going to deport illegal immigrants from cuba, nicaragua, and others. the other issue is he politicizing this issue? nikki haley is slamming the president going to the border city of el paso as a photo-op. you and i talked about this. the president has only gone once since in the nixon era in d.c. he did a drive-by el paso. is this all politicizing a crisis? >> i think it is. i hope that he is going there to see what the chaos is in the city of el paso.

his policies have caused. as you see it, looks like a third world country. we've seen some of these videos and images coming out of el paso and many border towns. it is too bad. those taxpayers deserve the same thing all americans deserve, which is a secure border. but i think you know the two policies i will watch very carefully, he will reimplement what is the safe third country or country of first encounter, you have to apply for asylum in mexico if that is the first country you encounter. the second policy equally interesting you have to come in ports of entry. you can't cross anywhere illegally across the border, apply for asylum. that are two policies we put in place that helped standardize the system and bring discipline and security to the southern border. >> sounds like he is bringing back three trump policies. title 42 for those four country, remain in mexico and the one you just cited?

>> yeah. i don't believe him on title 42. he said in his press conference today he doesn't personally favor it. he is waiting for the court to in june, supreme court will have a hearing, ultimately will decide. i think he has the discretion to appeal it. he has not said he will take back that repeal. elizabeth: you wonder if the president will visit oh crowded detention centers there because on his watch the u.s. seen equivalent of two nebraskas, some say it is three nebraskas crossing including the got awais. the fear they paint a picture at border claiming all is well emptying out tent camp and centers, releasing detained illegal aliens to gift illusion it is under control. attorney general that happened before. border officials warned that happened before. >> it has happened before. this is a game that they like to play where they suggest that just because one piece of the system is working that the whole system is somehow stable and

secure and it's not. remember one of the real challenges at the border is that these illegal immigrants are paying cartels and they are being used as pawns to surge in certain areas of the border that takes all resources away, including air marshals i might add, which make the planes less safe. the fentanyl, methaphetamine, all the drugs come in through other places that are no longer guarded because they have to deal with all of these people that are coming across the border. elizabeth: let's watch homeland security secretary mayorkas finally admit the border is broken. you will see the president finally claim he does intend to go to the border. you will hear him downplay his border crisis as quote a situation. you will hear him talk about the new app for asylum-seekers. watch this. >> there is no question that the number of encounters that we are experiencing at the border is straining our system and this harkens back to the question you previously posed, which is we're

operating within a system that is fundamentally broken. >> why go to a border state and not visit the border? president biden: more important thing going on. they will invest billions of dollars in a new an enterprize. vice president and i would take to talk to you about how my administration is dealing with our situation on the southwest border. title 42 will go away before the end of the year in terms of the supreme court in my prediction. we'll have to use title ix, title 8, eight, am i right? title 8. 8, 9. if they are seeking asylum they can use an app on their cell phone called cbp-1. elizabeth: you know this all feels really confusing, right, attorney general? he doesn't know which title is in play. talking about an app. the president claimed that the gop is not serious about the border. adam schiff claimed the border has been a priority for democrats and it is hard to do anything in a single party basis. president biden did 300 executive actions on his own to weaken the border.

>> well, democrats spent trillions of dollars on their own, none of it went to securing the southern border. i mean it went to securing other country as borders but not the united states of america. joe biden doesn't have credibility on this. to call this a situation, when we've had estimates five million people come into this country illegally through our southern border is just, it es extraordinary. that must be the understatement of the year and the year is still young. i expect that you know will continue to not shoot the people straight here in this country and this is really not going to be fixed and they have no intent to fix it. let's be honest. elizabeth: pew research, polling shows that the u.s. is a generous nation. america welcomes immigrants. it just doesn't want women, children, seniors who deserve asylum get shoved into the back of the line by ms-13 gang members or 98 terrorists crossing, trying to cross last year, criminals crossing. there is this.

let's watch the white house now, in the past they claimed the border is secure. now they're claiming it isn't. watch. >> we have a secure border. >> the border is secure. >> the border remains closed. it is not open. we are turning away the majority of adults. >> we have a process in place to manage migrants at the border. >> no, he doesn't. he doesn't -- he doesn't have a process in place. for them, the home land security secretary, attorney general, to say it is fundamentally broken after he gaslighted everybody for months saying it is secure, i mean the democrats as jason chaffetz said, say they're the good guys, party of compassion, soul of the nation but they don't care what happens once these people cross the border or even what happens to them as they die and get assaulted on the way. they're stuck in squalid conditions, sleeping on the street, abandoned in a cruelest fashion. you saw massachusetts democrats

did, as jason chaffetz pointed out, when migrants showed up, they loaded them on buses shipped them out as soon as possible. mayor of denver, colorado did that. >> to your point we're the most generous country in the world admit million people legally and lawfully. we need a system that serves our interest but not prone to intimidation by criminal cartels, use them as part of broader drug trafficking organization. that is where i just, again i have worked very closely in this when i was at the department of justice. there are ways to secure this border and in administration just is not serious about actually securing the border. >> got it. attorney general matthew whittaker thanks for joining us. good to see you. come back soon. okay, we have got this story

♪. elizabeth: this is growing thin. gop lawmakers getting increasingly upset, voters getting upset. kevin mccarthy looks like he lost a 10th vote for house speaker. house congressional correspondent chad pergram live on capitol hill with the latest. good to see you. >> reporter: kevin mccarthy expected to move the meter today, it never really happened despite making him concessions. the house is no closer to electing speaker when it started the process on tuesday. we finished the 10th roll call vote. they're going on to a 11th vote right now. read you the numbers, hakeem jeffries, 212. all 2312 democrats continue to vote for jeffries on every single ballot. mccarthy came in even 200. 200 votes there.

kevin hern, republican from oklahoma, seven. byron donalds 13, one voting present. what happened you lowered the bar to 217 because there are 423 members responding by name. i talk about this being the math. this is the math. 432 members are voting for a candidate by name. you have one vacancy in the house. you have victoria spartz, republican from indiana voting present. so that does not count. now you have ken buck, republican of colorado who is absent. he has been absent the past couple votes here. he has a medical issue to deal with. he tells me will be back tomorrow night. 217 that probably hurts can kevin mccarthy because he doesn't have as many of his people there. a scenario would help him, other people dropping out it lowers the bar to 217. they with will continue to vote, and vote, and vote until they get a speaker.

liz? elizabeth: chad pergram, thanks for your reporting. thanks for joining us tonight. joining us texas congresswoman-elect, beth van duyne, byron york, "the washington examiner." we're part of history. the longest vote looks like in 160 years. even trump and mike pence said stopped the vote for mccarthy. lock them inside and until you see white smoke and a new speaker. >> this is not a part of history i wanted to be part of. i wanted to be part of coming back, get a majority, fulfill the promises we made to our constituents, hold the biden administration accountable. 90% of the republican conference voting for kevin mccarthy. handful of people voted for couple candidates. they threw out two names. if you run for the position you

should have come out. it would be announced to great to hear the platform, the ideas, the plan. now we're at the last moments. all these names are kind of being thrown out. for those of us who like to be very thoughtful with our votes, to know what we're voting on, we're pushing the rule changes to have 72 hours notice, it is frustrating all of sudden we're kind of hearing last minute names thrown out as speaker. it is way too -- elizabeth: byron, so what the congresswoman just said, byron, what do you make of all of this? because there is debate whether or not mccarthy making big concessions, whether or not he is gutting his own power as a speaker? this is what others are saying, it's a really important fight over massive government spending passed in the dead of night at the 11th hour when congress doesn't read the bill and no hearings what do you say to all of this? >> well i think mccarthy already before the voting started made a lot of concessions for changes in how the house operates. i mean a lot of conservatives in

the united states are almost traumatized by this $1.7 trillion omnibus that passed on december 23rd but you know, 200 house republicans voted against it. nine house republicans voted for it. seven of them are no longer in the house. they did it on the way out the door. so, kevin mccarthy is, actually wanted the senate not to pass the bill, to wait until republicans were in charge of the house and could perhaps cut it down a little bit. i think right now the situation right now, the one voice we haven't heard from now is kevin mccarthy. there is no rule that says he can't come out and say something. i think it would probably be a good idea to do so right now. elizabeth: that is an interesting point because you know, congresswoman, u.s. inflation is not turned a corner yet, that is from the imf. imf. americans are getting hit with

double-whammies of high inflation, fueled by government spending fed rate hikes, tax hikes. it is getting so bad out there, congresswoman, we want your reaction to this. even rapper cardi b is demanding a stop to what is going on in d.c. watch this. >> went to the supermarket. i see everything triple dubbed. lettuce $2. lettuce seven. i'm going to say something. i can only imagine middle class people, people in the hood [bleep] thinking. elizabeth: even cardi b is saying what the heck is going on. go ahead, congressman. >> cardi b, welcome to the republican party. we've been saying this the last two years. if you have a punitive fiscal policies coming out of the biden administration, that demonizes american business. when they have got their fiscal policies are attacking our energy industry, this is what you see. we have been warning of people of this. this is exactly what was going

to happen for the last two years, if you enacted these policies and they continue to do it. guess what, we're finally seeing what is happening. elizabeth: congresswoman, how does this problem with the house speaker fight resolve itself, what will happen? >> we'll have to get a majority, get 218 people or a majority of those voting. >> they are not budging, hard-liners are not budging, congresswoman. >> there have been negotiations and discussions happening all day today. as they're progressing it is going in positive direction. elizabeth: okay. >> fact we all want a conservative speaker. i come from a conservative district. i have a conservative voting record. i'm really worried about the spending we've been doing, the lack of attention of border, lack of attention on inflation. what we're doing with our international policies. i want a speaker that is very conservative. the fact is there are stop gaps being put in place if kevin mccarthy is not that conservative speaker he needs five people to be able to call

him out on that. >> they're now moving. we have breaking news. they're moving on 11th vote for mccarthy for house speaker. this again, we're in historic times. we have not seen this since 1860. your final word, byron york. >> there an intense fear among the 200 republicans who have been voting for mccarthy that if they give in to the demands of the 20, there will be no end to it, they will never be an end to it. the next time there is a significant vote a group will hold things up and make all sorts of demands. i do think that members of the 200, might want to start saying to these rebels, look, you need to produce a real candidate and get pledges from members of the house who say that if kevin mccarthy withdraws or is out of the race, they will then vote for that candidate. right now this is a reallying in a poke situation from the rebels. elizabeth: got it. congresswoman van duyne and byron york, thanks so much for

joining us tonight. good to see you both. >> thank you. >> we have china, the w.h.o. now accuses china of undercounting covid deaths amid its major covid outbreak there but china is threatening retaliation against the u.s. over u.s. demands that chinese tourists show a negative covid test before coming here. plus new study show even more problems with covid vaccines but there is a new push by drugmakers for a three in one vaccine for rsv, covid and the flu. and senator rand paul trolls democrat adam schiff for violating the first amendment after congressman schiff tried to get twitter to censor a journalist. congressman-elect darrell issa on "the evening edit" next. ♪. is the planning effect. this is how it feels to have a dedicated fidelity advisor looking at your full financial picture.

mails over the course of the last few weeks. the government was in every conceivable wing of enforcement agencies of the u.s. government some way or another sending moderation requests to twitter. in many cases those requests were being full filled. they were coming from every place from the nsa, from hhs, fbi, dhs and even what they call other government agencies which i think is code for the cia. there are a lot of people associate in the democratic party with people being taken off the internet. >> right. >> people being afraid to say certain things. that is not a positive. >> i mean, isn't all this a violation of the first amendment? that the government should not be abridging anybody's first amendment free speech rights? >> liz, i think you're hitting it exactly right. as bad as what twitter did was, as much lying went on when they testified before congress, it's the fact that they were in cooperation and in conspiracy if you will with agency after

agency, in many cases to cover up the truth and we wouldn't know this if elon musk had not ordered talented people to research, organize and deliver this information but remember twitter is a small organization compared to meta or google or even amazon. we have a lot of other social media platforms and companies who appear to be doing the same thing. we'll have to play cat-and-mouse to get some of that information about what their government interactions were. elizabeth: yeah. facebook and google too. to your point, senator rand paul, he is going after democrat adam schiff on twitter, basically saying, congressman schiff violated the first amendment after the twitter files revealed schiff tried to get twitter to censor a journalist reporting on the democrats trump impeachment push. this is the same adam schiff who called elon musk a hypocrite for suspending journalists after they doxxed musk's location. what do you think about schiff here? >> adam lied about devin nunez.

he lied what went on in the classified world. he has been a very successful operative for democrats using his position heading the intelligence committee. so it is no surprise. what i think is a surprise is, that twitter and other social media companies seem to welcome this kind of throttling or censoring, even so much we now know that there was even direct communication, in other words, your own internal communication between individuals that they were looking at and eliminating and you know government years ago, section 230, gave them exemption because they weren't supposed to be looking into individual correspondence but they are. elizabeth: the other thing too, this is concerning, the twitter files also reveal that russian disinformation was a growing excuse by government to even censor twitter discussions about the pandemic's origins and lockdowns.

now there was no proof of any of that was russian disinformation. i mean, we don't know. they just went in there, using it it it as an excuse. we don't know. we've been talking about over a year about an independent commission modeled after the u.s. senate 1970s church committees to investigate u.s. intelligence infiltrating media to manipulate the message. it will need to be a big commission if the congress is going to do that, the house is going to do that, given to your point it is not just twitter. >> no it is not. it will have to be a sustaining organization. whether it is truly bipartisan or not, there has to be representation of both parties and professional staff and we're going to have to do that as soon as we get a speaker. >> got it. congressman, darrell issa, pleasure seeing you. good to have you on. >> thanks, liz. elizabeth: we're coming out of the bottom of the hour. you're watching the fox business network this shocker. idaho murder suspect identified

myocarditis and pulmonary embolism from covid vaccines. what do you make of the three in one vax? >> there is precedent for try veil lent vaccine, measels, mumps, rubella, mmr shot. that is the not problem. we're targeting different populations throwing it all in one shot. rsv is primarily a pediatric disease. despite what people say covid, still by and large is not a pediatric disease. and then the flu which will be the third part of that, it affects young adults but predominantly for older individuals. what we've done unfortunately we've gotten back from the entire purpose of a vaccine. hit targeted groups, targeted ages of individuals or targeted groups with certain diseases. stepping back to a trivalent with these different type of disease processes, we're

pointing out to myocarditis especially in younger men or some other blood clotting disorders, i'm questioning the need for that type of an intervention really at this point in time, especially in the age of therapeutics. elizabeth: while you were talking we were showing disclosures from a study by mass general, brigham & women's hospital in massachusetts general up in boston. they found increased inflammation and cardiac injury in teenagers around young adults. >> absolutely. elizabeth: targeting the audience, they got vaccinated for covid. the moderna spike vax has two to three greater incidence of my owe cart diet tis and inflammation after the second dose. they say that is very rare. what do you think? >> it is not rare enough when it happens to you, right? if you're taking a vaccine you really honestly don't need if you're not one of those targeted populations, and you're affected by the myocarditis it is a problem to you. you go back say it again and again. this is something should be

decided between a doctor and a patient. i think some of the problems in health care institutions in the country these days going back two years, it has all turned political. there is so much fear-mongering going on. yes, this is a terrible disease, but generally in targeted population, not in young adults. >> to your point, there is concern about the vaccine, right? people are worried about it. >> sure. elizabeth: they want to be safe. people want to do the right thing. they want to be vaccinated. we understand people want to do the right thing but they're worried about the vaccine. now reports that the cdc is identifying hundreds of safety signals for the moderna and pfizer vaccines for bells palsy, blood clotting, based on the vaccine adverse event reporting. we know that is just a red flag early warning system. it may not be indicative but are we talking enough in the media about this? are we doing enough coverage of this? is congress and the nih and dr. fauci talking enough about side-effects of the vaccines? >> i don't think we're talking about much about anything except a speakership in congress these

university of idaho students, he is suspect bryan kohberger, he is back in idaho to face murder charges and this bombshell, law enforcement say that dna played a key role in linking him to the murders. now lydia hu has the story. lydia. >> reporter: investigators say they found a leather knife sheath at the crime scene. dna known to be male was recovered from the button snap of that knife sheath. less than go weeks after the murder investigators asked area law enforcement to be on the lookout for a white hyundai elantra. as a result a washington state university police officer searched for cars matching that description and allegedly discovered bryan kohberger had a 2015 white elantra registered at the university. later in december police say license plate readers and surveillance video show coberg's white elantra in albertsville,

pennsylvania where his family lived. it was two days later agents in pennsylvania recovered trash from the home. they sent the trash to the lab to obtain a new dna profile. comparing the dna profile to the dna from the knife sheath at the scene, investigators could not exclude from the dna from the trash as being a family member of the man who left dna at the crime scene. in fact miss say the analysis shows that dna taken from the kohberger family home was likely the father to the male who left dna on the knife sheath. there were various other investigative techniques employed also from interviews to footprint analysis and cell phone records. police saying all avenues leading to suspect bryan kohberger. liz, back to you. elizabeth: lydia hu, thank you so much for are your journalism there. welcome to the show former nypd lieutenant darrin porcher. lieutenant, thank you for joining us. what do you make of this story?

>> well, good evening, liz and good evening to the viewers. i think this is an amazing characterization of what police do behind the scenes. police did not investigate this case in public. they investigated it in the detective squad room where investigations should be conducted and the acquisition of dna was amazing in a case like this because when we look at the suspect, his dna was not in the codis dna database. the codis dna database is law enforcement database everyone arrested has their dna is contained in. this was contained in a public database. think went one person over to connect he was related to someone in the dna database. this was great police work as a result. elizabeth: this is amazing story. lieutenant, people are upset about the feeling of rampant crime in the u.s., lieutenant, we'll show shocking door cam footage of a homeowner in new

orleans fighting off a car thief, he jumped through the sunroof of his own car to get at the thief. he got his car back. he was not injured. he is sick of crime in new orleans. here is the story, lieutenant, taxpayers nationwide in a growing number of states are getting mad and outraged not being given the option to vote on getting rid of, getting rid, wiping out of cash bail. instead state officials are wiping out cash bail on their own. what do you think of that story? >> when we look at criminal justice reform, i think the pendulum shifted to far to the left. the criminals now have more rights than the citizens in society. which need to uphold a social contract. so when you speak to the incident that occurred down in new orleans. this is a classic example of criminals having more rights and allow them to act with impunity because psychologically they believe that at the will not be caught, if they are caught, many counties are operating a

catch-and-release stream as it relates to bail reform. elizabeth: the first bail reform movement according to our producer claire o'connor was in new york city 1961. within the next decade after states like illinois, kentucky and wisconsin did their bail reform, then when crime hit the nation and swept the nation, states reversed course. we'll see that happen again. you have got 10 seconds? >> if you read the tea leaves it is clear bail reform does not work. we need a revolution what we do to insure bail reform is revoked and we uphold the social contract. elizabeth: got it. lieutenant porcher. thanks for joining us tonight. we have this story, governor desantis is cracking down on far left agendas on florida universities. we have the story next with cj pierson ♪ a "let's dig in" day... mm. ...a "chow down" day... a "take a big bite" day... a "perfectly delicious" day... - mm.

enforcerses of oppression, they were not alive when slavery was a thing or even own a slave, we need to turn back education, ideas of teaching young people how to think, not teaching them an agenda but teaching them how to be thinkers again. elizabeth: listen to msnbc they cover a lot about white supremacy. university of chicago, a course called problem of whiteness. university of kansas course, angry white male studies your final word on this. >> the left wants to talk about white supremacy in school, let's talk about history of kkk, and jim crow and people who put rosa parks in the back of the left, t -- bus, that was the left. >> where does this go? i think it goes until

conservatives start to fight back and do everything that we can to ensure that colleges know we'll no longer tolerate the indoctrination of our children and beat back the original values of education that are important. as long as we let them, it's time to fight ban b back in many ways, parents have an obligation too, stop paying tens of thousands to have your child reject the values that you gave them when they were growing up. elizabeth: thank you cj . >> thank you for watching us, i am elizabeth macdonald. we'll stay on the story tomorrow, you are watching "the evening edit." kennedy: stop me, stop me. stop me if you think that you heard this one before. the house still has not voted in a speaker, they are still going at it, kevin mccarthy failed 11
