ashley: how can you not sing along, the great beatles, a lennon and mccartney song, 64. stewart would know, somewhere he is filing of that one. it is 10:00 eastern. i am ashley webster in for stuart varney. the markets were down at "the opening bell" as investors digest the latest inflation data, the dow is off 0. one% of one% of the s&p and, the nasdaq starting to turn around a little bit. 10 year treasury yield is up 3. 6 basis points, up 3. 74% as we now know inflation is still stubbornly high. down ever so slightly but still

stubbornly high. crude down 7884. up 178 points, they have broken through the 22,000 mark on bitcoin. james clapper, former national intelligence director now says he never called hunter biden's laptop russian disinformation. he says the media deliberately distorted his words, too bad, we've got the tape. listen. >> to me, this is classic textbook soviet russian trade craft at work. ashley: hoops. that is what he said. jason chafe its joined me now. i think his words were pretty clear. >> the problem is 50 one people

from the intelligence community put out this letter. they didn't clarify. if a they thought their words were misconstrued, why didn't they say something? they say i have security clearance, i've seen a lot of information you have. we know better than you, and now, two years later, they come and fess up and start whining and complaining. why didn't they do so at the time and who put them up to that letter, why did they put that together? it was right before an election. ashley: coincidence. i want to move on. nikki haley officially announced her presidential bid. watch this and i will get your comments. >> time for a new generation of leaders to rediscover fiscal responsibility, secure our

border. i am nikki haley and i am running for president. ashley: she has a good story to tell. what is your reaction? >> she's a quality person, she was a good governor and has a good compelling story. the broader picture is republicans have a deep bench, a number of people qualified to run and become the president of the united states. contrast that with the democrats who don't. i think she will be viable, has a good message. she has been on the national and world stage. her foreign policy is strong. look out for anybody running, she's going to be a competitor. ashley: do you think the party has learned lessons from the midterm? it is great to have a deep bench but you've got to get the message right? >> you've got to get the message right, and the way ron

mcdaniel -- ronna mcdaniel approached this, the debates will be done differently this year, that will make a difference long-term, but these races are always so long. a year from now, we will start figuring this out. ashley: we like it being long, there's lots going on and i can't wait to. i know you are the same. you are out of congress but love what is going on every day. thanks for being here this morning. let's get back to the cpi report, inflation jumped 6.4% in the last 12 months. that is slightly harder than anticipated. scott shelladdy. this shows you this is not easy. this is sticky or stubborn, but it is difficult to get this under control.

>> it will continue to be the case. all these things are up between 8% to 12%. we will struggle and on top of that, bring down labor costs and that will be one of the bigger ones that will be hard so that is why you have the fed, we are going to have to raise the unemployment rate, put businesses out of business so they can shed those employees and rehire them later. the labor component will take a long time. i said it a lot. recently, on my show, we are not in for a soft landing. we are in for a hard landing. we are in very long landing. this will take a long time. i need to remind everybody last time we had inflation like this we got in front and defeated it in 1980 one, but it started with richard nixon. that's nixon, ford, partner, and reagan, four hers initial terms to get this under control. i won't say will happen like

that but it will not be a flash in the pan. this is with us for a while. definitely be with us for the election. ashley: i think you are right. talking of the labor market, more people working fully remote than a few months ago. 50% said they worked mostly in the office last month but that was down from 55% in november. remote work gaining ground again? >> i don't know. i would have to see if that's a trend. in 2010 or somewhere around then, i heard someone ask steve jobs or someone about the most valuable thing to have as a graduating student in 2,025. you know what he said? the ability to communicate face-to-face, face-to-face communication will be the most

valuable tool in 2,025 because people will not be conversing. be careful what you wish for because if you don't have to go to work, someone in a different country can do your job at their home for 25% of the cost. ultimate, slowly but surely, in 5 or 10 years people will realize that collaborative environment, they have electricity work, that's not going to go away. some ceos have said that too. ashley: they have been pretty aggressive. great stuff as always. lauren, great having scott on the show, looking at some of the movers. airbnb up 2.5%. lauren: sales are expect to to increase 25%. the good news is overall domestic travel volume recovered 96% of pre-pandemic

levels from us travel association and then surpass 2019. that is the good news. they reported fourth-quarter profit better-than-expected. revenue rose by 8%. avis up 8. 5%. %. 1-800-flowers. 1-800-flowers, 4%. just wanted to give you that. match was down. ashley: q the sad trombone. let's move on to this one. amazon takes a huge cut of sales on their website. that shows there's a squeeze. how much are we talking? lauren: 51.8%, the most ever. storage delivery, advertising,

sales, exorbitant, more than half of each sale from 2 million third-party sellers but this is how amazon sees it at how merchants see it. it is a pay to play -- how much, 40% online goes to amazon. it is happening on amazon.com. they have to be where the eyeballs and the dollars are. this is exactly why amazon gets the heat politically and regulatory lease speaking. 51.8%, is there a cut on their site. ashley: no wonder it cranks a lot of dollars. one upscale restaurant in new jersey has a policy turning heads. lauren: next month no child under 10 can come.

the reason is not the patrons complaining, the employees were complaining, don't dealing with the children are dealing with air masses. ashley, if you have a well believed 9-year-old, they cannot go. ashley: that is brutal. what is your take on this. lauren: i clean up after my kids. they don't behave nicely, i pick up the french fried's and i am respectful. give them an ipad. ashley: the employees are apparently driving this or the owners are hiding behind the employees but it is kind of your job to clean up the tables and get ready for the customer, it is likely don't want to do this.

lauren: i don't know how high end this is, kid focused. if you want an italian going to an italian restaurant. ashley: do other diners not want loud kids at the table? lauren: such a good point. i take my children everywhere. most times they are consummate or entertained. people are forgiving and find kids cute. they can play and then they are done. ashley: thank you. good stuff. we now know hundreds of billions of dollars was stolen and covid fraud schemes, the greatest fraud in a generation. we will learn how long

lawmakers plan to crackdown on covid criminals. and ohio train derailment, was the evacuation lifted prematurely. i will ask congressman mike turner who will be on the show. the military has required key sensors from the downed chinese spy balloon. brian will have the latest in south carolina coming up next. ! they collect hundreds of data points like hrv and rem sleep, so you know all you need for recovery. and you are? i'm an investor...in invesco qqq, a fund that gives me access to... nasdaq 100 innovations like... wearable training optimization tech. uh, how long are you... i'm done. i'm okay.

latest inflation report the vote shows it is very stubborn, hard to bring that inflation down. president biden just announcing a new interagency team, this one will study the flying objects shot down over the us. is this the x files? what is this team going to do? >> reporter: study what is going on which suggests they don't have a clue what is going on. here's the national security council on that. >> the president has directed and interagency team to study the broader policy implications for detection, analysis, disposition of unidentified aerial objects that pose safety or security risks. we all recognize we need a better picture of that and that's why the president wants to take a look, we will learn from these events continue to study what happened and interagency effort to help us

get around policy implications here. lauren: maybe because of spy balloon they are able to see more and they saw the latest three. why are we now shooting everything down? the defense secretary answered that, these objects are a threat to civilian aviation and intel capabilities. ashley: a senior defense official telling fox a portion of the chinese spy flight was shot down off the east coast was just lifted off the ocean floor intact. brian has been in myrtle beach, do we know what they are looking for specifically and have they found it? >> foxes learned a significant portion of the high-altitude spy craft from china that was located last week on the

seafloor was lifted out of the sea and recovered friday before the bad weather came through on the weekend. we are told this recovered portion of the payload is 33 feet long, the size of a bus. it is big, mostly intact. a senior us defense official said, quote, they got the electronics they were looking for, important electronics and sensors removed and handled separately for processing. the department of defense released new images of recovery operations showing navy sailors preparing for transport to virginia. fox has told us intelligence officials and the fbi are already analyzing the electronics at the fbi lab. a salvage ship named the rosebud which has screen capability has been bored at the debris field 6 miles off the coast of myrtle beach since friday, the ship continues raising debris from the seafloor weather permitting. yesterday the white house's

national security council spokesperson said the us government has been studying china's balloon program for some time now and he downplayed the balloons effectiveness in collecting electronic communications. >> these balloons have provided limited additive capabilities to the prc's other intelligence platforms used over the united states but in the future if the prc continues to advance this technology it could become more valuable to them. >> reporter: congress received their first classified briefing on the china surveillance program last august. ashley: great stuff, thank you. president biden has no plans to address the nation over his handling of the four flying objects he ordered to be shot down. congressman mike turner from ohio joins us.

why is the president so silent on this? should he be addressing the nation? >> he should be addressing the issue, what a failure this is by his administration. interesting your reporting they are going to form a committee to tell the president what to do. obviously overwhelmingly the american public knew what he should have done, the moment this chinese spy. showed up, it should have been shot down, shouldn't have been permitted to complete its mission, the fact the president has subject to overwhelming criticism for allowing this, now has the president trying to deflect and say i need a committee to tell me. what is interesting is since the. traversed the united states apparently the department of defense has found out what to do before the committee comes back and that is shoot these things down before they can do their work. it is interesting to hear kirby from as part of defense on behalf of the president say

these things have minimal intelligence collection. that's not the case or china wouldn't put this level of effort to launching a balloon from china, taking across the united states, this size but obviously is seen by us and known, impacting our relationship if it didn't pay off for them, they took the risk and the president let them get what they were asking or trying to get and should not. ashley: i want to get to this story while we have you here, residents reporting sickness, dead animals near the site of the train derailment that release toxic chemicals in your state. doctor marc siegel sounding the alarm of the health effects and i will get your comments. >> it is associated with all kinds of cancers from liver cancer to breast cancer to lung cancer but the thing they are not talking about is it breaks down the hydrogen chloride and

gas used in world war i as a weapon. that is why people say they have headaches or burning eyes. it worries me that there is actually poisonous gas in the air from this. they hope the control beliefs, doesn't sound so controlled to me. they evacuated the area, maybe they went back too soon. ashley: what more can you tell us? this is a bigger situation than first reported. >> this is a relatively frequent occurrence, not to the scale but throughout the midwest, a lot of trains traversing with hazardous materials the go through towns, sometimes at cities and can impact the health of the people that are there. secretary of transportation peter buttigieg out to be on this. he's ignoring this, he turned his back on middle america when they have a crisis like this but this is one that shows the people who are affected get very little information, the department of transportation

needs to have greater awareness of the risk and where these hazardous materials are and how they can affect communities. ashley: we have to leave it there. thank you for joining us and bringing us up to speed, we appreciate it. now the story. another dead whale has sadly washed ashore just miles from an offshore wind farm. this is the third case in a week. where was it this time? lauren: the southeast coast of virginia near a wind farm, the same thing happening your another wind farm in new jersey where 8 whales have died since sonar testing for the windmill began. you are looking at one whale, some the skies of school buses, dying near these farms and being washed ashore. what is ironic in a way is environmentalists are calling for an immediate moratorium on

all offshore wind development because the data is suggesting that construction of the windfarm, the seismic testing that has to be done is endangering the species. ashley: they got to figure this out. such a sad sight. let's move on. the white house is shooting down growing conspiracy theories about the unidentified flying objects. listen to this. >> there is no indication of aliens with these takedowns. want to make sure the american people knew that. ashley: i have seen independence day. are americans buying it? jimmy fallon will take that on in the next hour. can't wait for that. wants american companies from doing business with beijing, he will tell us why the us needs to break up with china for good. be right back.

then i got the dexcom g6. i just glance at my phone, and there's my glucose number. wow. my a1c has dropped over 2 points to 7.2. that's a huge victory.

ashley: we started down, then

went up, now we are mixed, volatility goes on as the inflation report tells us inflation is hot, the fed has a ways to go. were looking at other movers. let's begin with boeing. >> the president is filing historic order for 220 boeing airplanes. at this price, valued at $34 billion, a new high for the year, shoppersify reported i consider this where the rubber meets the road. shopify was one of the first tech companies to slash its reports and this earnings report is expected to be good meaning they cut costs to outperform. did they right size their business and what does that mean about other tech companies and also recently cut jobs, shopify is up ahead of that report. coin base, kathy would bought

coin base shares on friday and yesterday, spending $30 million on coin base, she is bullish on bitcoin, reiterating that call the ghost $1 million. ashley: thank you very much. now this. as tensions continue to rise between the us and china, vivek ramaswami is calling for total decoupling from china. really, i mean, we rely so heavily on china for so many products, we are so integrated, how do we go about breaking up with beijing? it is almost impossible i would say. >> that is why we've got to do it. the top foreign policy objective for the united states is to declare independence, declare independence in the 21st century means declaring independence from communist china. here's the dirty little secret. unlike the soviet union in the

last century, we were never dependent on them for the shoes on our feet or the foods on our pocket, we depend on our chief military enemy to power our modern way of life. we are in this codependent relationships. they do not end well. this one won't either but the sooner we end it the better it is for us, the longer we wait, the better it is for china. this is not going to be easy but many large us companies cannot do business in china until the ccp reforms it's behaviors behaving as a participant in global capitalism, no more intellectual property theft, no more using companies as trojan horses to advance your geopolitical agendas. i think delivering financial accountability for the covid 19 pandemic is an essential part of this but this calls not for a no full chairman new -- neville chamberlain but winston

churchill for the electoral cycles but on the scales of history and that is what we are missing. ashley: can you get nike or disney to turn their back on a very big lucrative market? >> here's the thing. they are not going to do that because companies do what companies do, what allows them to make the most money but if you criticize the ccp or ply emissions a will tell you not to do business in china, they build a great wall. if you criticize the united states or apply the same constraints to the us economy they will roll out the red carpet and here's why. in china military policy and and economic policy are two sides of the same coin. on the side of the pacific, military policy is separate from economic policy, normally that makes sense but not with respect to china. this is imperative for the united states.

ashley: fascinating stuff. i want to get to this. politico says you could be eyeing a presidential run. this is fascinating. anyone who wants to take on something like that but are you thinking about running? >> i'm giving it serious consideration. i expect to make a decision in the relative near-term. to be this is less the question of who and more the question of what and why. what agenda does the conservative movement stand for? the opportunity i see is a shared national identity we are missing. my generation is so hungry for purpose and meaning yet we've given up on faith and patriotism and hard work and family. that is what creates this black hole of a void that allows wokeism to fill the void. folks like myself spent a lot of time complaining about those things.

i want to look in the mirror and ask how can we solve the problem? the right answer is to fill the void with a vision of american national identity that runs so deep it dilutes this woke agenda to irrelevance. that's what we need to do. i am reflecting to do that in the near term. ashley: that sounds like a campaign speech to me but the world of politics is brutal. are you ready to put your self on the line? >> i've taken criticism for the positions i have taken in the private sector. that doesn't bother me but the right question is the right messenger to deliver this vision to the american people, traveling to new hampshire, i have traveled the country, travel the majority of us states as part of my last two book tours. this is my vision for american national identity. do most americans believe this? my sense is most of them do, they don't know it because we

are not allowed to talk about it anymore. i want to talk about it in the open again so i'm giving it serious consideration and expect to decide relatively soon. ashley: we look forward to it. hopefully you will make that announcement on varney. thanks for joining us in a we appreciate it. former president donald trump firing back at the media over his nickname for governor ron desantis. >> i thought he artie had a nickname but, all of the fake news is reporting i spend large i spent large amount of my time coming up with a good nickname for ron the sanctimonious who's going to give the presidential thing a shot, they are wrong, i don't think about it. a very unreported subject to me. the new york times reported

trump was workshoping meatball ron and shut down ron. i scratched my head on the latter. i laughed and shut down ron. florida is open and free but the times is saying trump's research team is compiling research to show ron desantis a phony because he initially wanted the shutdowns and was extreme the pro-vaccine. trump is calling this fake news. >> heavy receive the stimulus check? you may only government some money. also an energy expert warning california's power grid could collapse as state leaders try to transition from fossil fuels to renewable power. kelly o'grady will have the full report from los angeles. ♪

ashley: look at these markets, we started the session down, then we are and now we are down. the dow is off 225 points, the nasdaq is down 8%. %. california's push to go green with black outs and failure. kelly o'grady in los angeles, what's the problem? >> the problem is twofold, the grid capacity isn't growing quickly enough to withstand demand and california is powered by fossil fuels making for a tough transition when the state is making it more aggressive. california announced reducing

oil demand by 24% and cut greenhouse gas emissions by 85% come 2045. the issue is 2021, renewables accounted for 23% of the state's electricity generation and to reach the state's goal of renewable power by 2025, the grid has for 25 gigabytes of storage capacity, 3. one and over 20% of its electricity. this past summer california experienced a number of events where residents were asked to avoid using lecture city and a new study shares this, quote, results continue to indicate a high risk of energy or capacity for fall. the highest risk is in july through september during the hours of 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. . that the problem in the state is banning gas powered cars by 2035 because when do you charge your ev? squarely in that 4:07 pm range. increasing storage is a key

focus with permitting and supply-chain challenges. energy experts argue the goals remain haphazard, one calling it ridiculous and the challenges are the result of past decisions that didn't proactively invest in them. i can tell you the state scrambles to build that necessary infrastructure, this will mean higher electricity bills, mine is artie very high in california. ashley: i can totally believe that. come back in, it is tax season and you've got new information for people who may have received state-funded inflationary checks. >> we had the message, don't wait on firing your taxes if you live in one of 21 states that did all out stimulus relief check last year. you don't have to pay federal tax on that, that is the answer to the question but there are

some exceptions in some states, namely georgia, massachusetts, south carolina, virginia, you live in those states, check with a tax professional before filing your return. a lot of people are trying to get in as soon as possible because they expect a rebate check and you need that money to get by. ashley: president biden fired the architect of the capital who oversees the capital's operations, why did this person get fired? lauren: he misused government property and taxpayer dollars by letting his wife and adult daughter use government vehicles on a regular basis, like taking trips to breweries and going away for the weekend which means not only they use the vehicle but philip the gas

tank at the taxpayers expense. that's an abuse of authority and is a fireable offense. ashley: now we understand. now this. a new poll shows a majority of americans increasingly concerns, the number of migrants entering the country, the president wants to give them the right to vote. residents are getting sick after a train derailment released toxic chemicals, roll it. >> the evacuation order was left prematurely. trying to stay where you are. >> i was here 5 minutes and i have a headache right now. ashley: absolutely awful. brian kilmeade will take that on next.

residents returning home after the train derailment that release toxic chemicals in ohio. they are sounding about the health effects. >> we felt very itchy eyes, swelling on the face particularly around the eyes. we were coughing. our eyes were watering. our skin was very flaky. >> first time i have been here in a week. i was here 5 minutes. >> the evacuation order was lifted prematurely. i advise people to try to stay where you are. ashley: transportation secretary peter buttigieg, assuming he's not on maternity leave tweeted that hazmat teams were on the site within hours and that is pretty much it. is that enough?

brian: it's not his father's a derailment but he should have done an investigation, in south carolina, there was another collision, in texas, so there's a series of derailments. the axle broke in this situation but all of a sudden, an old train where an axle could break, 50 cars full of toxic chemicals and basically poisons a town. one daily mail article talked about a nuclear bomb went off but also a detonation after. they thought detonating these trucks so they don't explode on their own was the safest thing to do. has he been back since? have you seen a federal government official there? where's the republican governor? he should say this is outrageous. what i hope, he's not ignoring

it because it is a red state, south carolina's derailment because it is a red state. this is just being inept, but giving a speech about how infrastructure is important but equity and how we distribute the construction job is key. you have people scratching their skin, having their epidermis leak off, having dogs die, being concerned about the water, even in kentucky they are concerned and the transportation secretary is mia, it does not show your hands-on. ashley: always behind on everything. knew paul find 60% of people are somewhat or very dissatisfied with the level of immigration into this country. what are the other 3% thinking? two republican senators want to stop washington dc from allowing illegal immigrants and former chiming nest that is

coming at party members from voting in local elections. what the heck? what do you think about that? >> every republican conspiracy theorist says democrats want to open the borders because they want voters in the retort is always why? they can't vote if they are not citizens if they are not citizens, they sneak into the country there is no problem, this is the problem. in vermont they are doing it, in washington dc republican scrambling to have a federal amendment, people aren't americans from voting in american elections but probably not going to have success in the senate. this is the biggest fear and reinforces the worry republicans have about the collapse of the border putting together the worst policies possible. either they are inept, or their diabolical mission is to bring illegals into the country to future elections. i'm heartened by a gallup poll that says 66% of americans

dissatisfied what was happening at the border and for the most part, 27% think it is a national security threat, 42% say it is a humanitarian crisis. i think it is both because a lot of people coming across, they have bad intentions and humanitarian, a lot of people dying en route, kids 4 years old, 6 years old coming across with these coyotes and being asked to come here and survive. maybe people waking up makes democrats react. ashley: i would hope so. it has taken a long time. thank you so much for taking time to join us this morning. let's move on. jimmy phelan is going to be a long. mike murphy will be along, the 11 a.m.
