"the evening edit," it starts right now. ♪. liz: welcome to the show. welcome to the show, thanks for joining us. we begin with stocks. look at that ending the day up. tech stocks leading the charge on wall street. growth and value stocks were bullish too. the key markets, the key inflation measure that the market are hooking to, inflation. it is pce price index for february. it is coming out this friday. but first, the president has a brand new warning about the bank crisis. edward lawrence has the story live at the white house, edward. >> reporter: focus, liz today, has on on the economy. the president, less than 24 hours ago saying that the banking crisis might not be
5:03 pm
over. i think it is important to hear exactly what he said. listen. president biden: well no, it is not over yet. we're watching it very closely. i think my team handled it very well so far. rather than get ahead of myself here i think let things move the way they are. >> reporter: white house clarifying those comments saying he was talking about banking regulations for mid-sized banks there. senator kevin cramer said the regulations are not the problem. listen. >> if anybody, you know was a problem was the regulator because even under the current rules, the lack of good risk management with idiosyncratic risk or more localized risk, what was not appropriate, was not accurate. i don't know how adding more rules to people who break the rules really helps. >> reporter: this afternoon, federal reserve chairman jerome powell went in to talk with republican study committee for
5:04 pm
their lunch on capitol hill. he talked about the inflation pushed by government spending. >> he said there was no need for fiscal stimulus at all. what i read into it is we overstimulated from the federal level and so that is one of the reasons why we're going to have to get our fiscal house in other while the fed does its job. >> reporter: latest "qunnipiac poll" out today, showing that the 57% of registered voters disapprove of the president's job performance. inflation a big reason for that. liz: wow. edward lawrence thank you so much. good to see you. who is back with us, house ways and means, greg stuebe, former economic advisor to president trump. he is steve moore. great to see you, gentleman, thanks for joining us. >> good to see you. liz: more and more polls, quinnepiac, new "gallup poll," this white house is a failure. congressman, your reaction, treasury secretary janet yellen testifies she has no answers why the irs showed up at the door,
5:05 pm
the home of twitter files journalist matt taibbi the day he is testifying about government censorship. then we have ag garland testifying he doesn't know key details how many school board parent the doj and fbi targeted as domestic terrorists. this is a crazy day in washington. >> exactly why we have the committee on the weaponization of the federal government to go after these abuses by the biden administration to completely politicize these agencies, in this case harass a witness. if you listen to mr. taibbi, he tells you the irs actually owes him money. why are they reviving things, not notifying his accountant, all these things? there is to coincidence he showed up to his door, an irs agent, the day he was testifying before the select committee here in washington. liz: steve, this news, u.s. marshals, there came out of the hearing today, u.s. marshals were told to stand down and not arrest protesters at the homes of supreme court justices last
5:06 pm
year when that is against federal law doing that. >> well, look, let's go back to this irs issue because i just hope and pray that the congressman and his colleagues do not give another 87,000 irs agents to hunt down conservatives as joe biden wants to. i have had the same problem myself, liz where, i had a 50,000-dollar lien on my property and, it was one of the reasons i couldn't get appointed by president trump. when all was said and done after the whole episode was over, the irs said, oops, we actually owe you money. these are the kinds of things that conservatives have been targeted since the obama administration, when lois lerner was running that agency. and so, i find it to be incredibly offensive and does anybody in the world really think that it was a coincidence that they knocked on this
5:07 pm
journalists door the day he was supposed to testify? liz: you know, now gallup, gallup reports the president's job approval rating is still 40%. congressman, that is his sixth straight month of reading stuck at that range. under water on economy, energy, even the environment. look at that only 26% of independents approve of biden on the economy. how can he announce again? how can he announce he will run again? >> i think because there is not other people in the democratic party that have better numbers than he does. it has been crisis after crisis with this administration. in the polling that we've seen, you see that the economy drives at-these decisions for your independents and moderate voters. they're completely under water. they trust republicans 60, 80% more on these issues, to get inflation under control, get spending in washington under control and overall economic health of our country. liz: steve, what the congressman just said, real wages are
5:08 pm
falling after inflation. consumer debt at record highs. the economy was already in recovery when president biden and democrats rammed into it trillions of dollars of and more in spending. fed is trying to contain record inflation without triggering more bank failures with interest rate hikes. we have a new report, president claims he is cutting deficit, cutting debt, spending. he unilaterally spent $1.5 trillion with executive actions. what do you think of that? >> that is an incredible figure, that i think is probably on top. i'm not sure if that is on top of the six trillion dollars that were passed by the democratic congress before the republicans took over control of the house. i liked what congressman byron donalds said in the clip you showed earlier. fed chairman told the republican study committee we don't need anymore fiscal stimulus.
5:09 pm
that seems pretty obvious, doesn't it? when you have avalanche of spending. i want to make one other quick point, liz. he is now on and invest in america tour and yet his budget, his tax policy, we just ran the numbers, would increase the tax on investing in america by 80%. liz, if you tax something you get less of it, not more of it. liz: yeah, that's right. congressman, your final word. >> the yeah the policies of this administration are horrible and shows in the inflationary numbers. time after time again saw 6%. under trump it was 1.7. that is hurting everyday americans every single day they go to the grocery store to try to provide for their families. liz: congressman stuebe, steve moore, thanks for joining us tonight. look who is here, back with us chairman of house judiciary, congressman jim sword. thanks for joining us. >> my pleasure. liz: this first question, have you, have you or your committee, have you heard from the irs yet? you know basically what is the irs saying to you about showing
5:10 pm
up out of the blue at matt taibbi's home? >> we know what yellen said in a different committee hearing. she didn't know anything about it. she also says there usually doesn't happen unless there is criminal matter. we know that is not the case. the irs owe journalist matt taibbi, they owe matt money. we haven't heard back from the treasury department, or the irs. what i mentioned in previous segment, this happened under the obama administration with lois lerner. i do know during that crisis when we were figuring all of this out, they were targeting conservative groups, danny werfel was brought in as one of the interim guys to run the irs. he is the guy back in charge of the irs. i don't know if there is any connection there. what i do know is, this sure looks like more than a coincidence that it happens the very day he is testifying. >> fox business has been calling the irs. they're not returning calls. they're not answering. are they saying anything to you? because you gave the irs a hard deadline of april 10th to
5:11 pm
turn over documents, communications including with the executive branch and the white house. are they saying anything at all to you? >> no. we haven't heard anything but we want those communications liz. again context is critical here. the day before matt taibbi testifies he learns that the ftc, a different federal agency, wrote twitter, said who are journalists are you talking to, and named mr. taibbi and mr. shellenberger by name. those journalists testified in front of our committee. during that committee hearing, journalists democrats were asking these two journalists who are your sources, a direct attack on the first amendment. while they're asking those kind of questions, the day after the ftc did what they did, a person from the irs who shows up at matt taibbi's home. didn't call his accountant, didn't call him, showed up at his home, left a note, said we'll be back in touch on monday. he had, think about what that means for a typical family. think about that the whole weekend for goodness sake?
5:12 pm
liz: right. >> this is frightening stuff. looks like intimidation of some sort. again why we want to know what communications were. were there more than just irs involved. was it more than new 87,000 agents hired for the $87 billion. i don't know we'll try to get answers to all those questions. liz: we're on the story. treasury secretary janet yellen testify about this today. watch this? >> i also sit on the house weaponization select subcommittee. couple weeks ago we have had a journalist before us, matt taibbi, by the way is not conservative. independent journalists known to be progressive to the left not to the right. during a few hours before he appearing before congress a irs agent appears at his home and leaves him a note. are you familiar with this? are you aware of this? >> no i'm not. >> i told you about it. direct oversight of the irs does that bother you? >> it certainly something i would want to look into.
5:13 pm
i'm not aware irs agents do that except as you said in cases where there is an investigation -- for law breaking that is underway. >> that is exactly right. liz: congressman, she wasn't aware of it. sounds like she may try to dig into it. we're not sure if that will happen. congressman, the irs answers to the pay maker. they answer to who gives them their money, wages, sally, budget. that is democrat run senate finance. they listen to dog whistles in d.c. >> good point. liz: is this what is happening here? >> that is a great point, liz. i think very insightful. it may in fact be, but first of all the idea that she didn't know about it, understand when these cabinet secretaries come in front of congress they get briefed, they get asked questions. many times there is a mock hearing at that takes place. the idea they wouldn't teller had about a story broke
5:14 pm
yesterday, coming following day to testify i find that hard to believe. i find almost hard to believe that happened this whole thing was some kind of a chance or coincidence. i think you're right too. it is like when you go back to the lois lerner, targeting in the obama administration, there was never going to be an email from president obama to the irs saying to target conservative groups. they didn't need that. because obama stood in front of the united states congress at the state of the union and went after the citizens united decision while judge alito sat right there in the house chamber. they didn't need the specific thing. they got marching orders as you said from the broader, broader message coming from the administration. liz: it's dog whistle. irs is brutal bureaucracy to work under. there is also treasury employees federal union. they routinely, majority, 90% or more of donations go to democrat politicians. get your reaction to attorney general garland testifying today about the biden white house getting the doj and fbi to target school board parents as
5:15 pm
domestic terrorists. he appeared to not know key details. watch this. >> internal communications show the doj and the national school boards association extensively colluded prior to your memorandum back on october 4th of 2021 which inserted federal law enforcement into local school board meetings. do you know how many citizens were tagged with this threat? >> i don't know. i think the fbi returned that there were, in their own subpoena response to mr. jordan i think there were around 20. >> 22 to be exact and six were actually investigated by the counterterrorism division of the fbi. citizens of this country who were trying to make their voices heard at their school board meetings and instead were tagged by the fbi as terrorists. liz: congressman, were any of these school board parents to your knowledge arrested? >> no, that is the fundamental question. i was going to make that point.
5:16 pm
no one was charged. no one was indicted. we released a report on this week 1/2 ago. in our report we cite a u.s. attorney, a u.s. attorney in the biden administration, democrat u.s. attorney and that u.s. attorney said this looks like a completely manufactured crisis. there is no reason for this to get the federal government involved. so that is not jim jordan saying that. not ben cline saying that. that is the u.s. attorney saying this is manufactured. it was done for political reasons. liz: there is this, gop representative republican katie britt tells ag garland her team got training materials showing u.s. marshals were actively discouraged, explicitly told to stand down, do not arrest protesters demonstrating at the homes of supreme court justices last year when doing that is against the law. what do you make of this? >> 18 usc section 1507 you're not supposed to be protesting in front of a supreme court justices home with the intent to impact an inflows a decision
5:17 pm
exactly on point, what exactly was going on. we'll not arrest people for committing a crime. we'll send agent to a journalists home, put, irs agent, put a note on his door at the exact time he is testifying in front of congress. that is the biden administration now. it is, it is scary. scary. liz: thanks forking on the show. house judicial chairman jim jordan. this story coming up. house lawmakers pressing the white house over why they continue to stonewall multiple investigations. plus energy expert alex epstein joining us energy secretary january home spending grand home spending spring break are break in puerto rico. this is the fourth trip since last fall. that is next on
5:18 pm
"the evening edit". yes. right. yeah. and i don't think at that time- i think you're the one to tell me that we had the same birthday. yes. it's really unbelievable when you think about it, because it's been, like, really over 20 years that you were my mother and father's banker, you became my banker and now fran is in her third year of college and you're her banker. it's so unbelievable because i'm just 20 years old.

5:21 pm
5:22 pm
to london and paris to, talk about climate mandates to stop americans and carbon emissions. we have energy secretary granholm, she is spending spring break in puerto rico on taxpayer-funded trip. this is her fourth trip to puerto rico since last fall. why can't they zoom or skype? >> it is a good question. i mean i guess they would say more effective to be in person. so that requires fossil fuels but then my view on this is, well everything effective requires fossil fuels. why is it okay for you guys to use it but doesn't matter 8 billion people are free to use it? their purpose of using fossils fuels to prevent others from using fossil fuels. that is immoral. liz: alex there is this, president biden saying in north carolina, extreme maga republicans want to turn over the u.s. clean energy future to
5:23 pm
china. at the same time biden's interior secretary deb haaland was contradicting biden agreeing with lawmakers biden's policies are strengthening china because china dominates green energy production? >> biden has this ridiculous fantasy has the way we're going to, he is acknowledging china controls green energy. that is step forward. everyone pretending somehow american thing. china dominating thing. he has ridiculous idea, subsidize american industry, overregulated, make it impossible to do everything, massive subsidies will solve anything. that will give us uncompetitive industry. to become competitive to liberate domestic development. that is what president biden refuses to do, infrastructure people. nepa, national environmental policy act needs dramatic reform. yet the biden administration
5:24 pm
reversed the nepa reforms of the trump administration. liz: that is crazy. china is using coals to pump up the coal factories to make solar panels. watch what happens with the interior secretary. >> telling you 63% of rare earth we'll stipulate to it. electric vehicles deepen our reliance on china, correct? >> yes. >> you also told me china is accountable for majority of critical minerals. before that you told me evs and renewables are heavily dependent on critical minerals. now you telling me you banning critical mineral mining in the united states doesn't deepen our dependence on china? >> we're approving, we're approving mines. liz: alex, they're all over the map. let's get this straight. they're making -- >> that is a smart questioner by the way. liz: go ahead. take it on. >> that is a smart questioner. i mean it is undeniable.
5:25 pm
so i am glad he tripped up the secretary. she should not be the secretary. should never have been hired certainly been fired if you care at all developing the united states. liz: he kills the keystone pipeline day one. green lights putin a pipeline in europe, undercuts pipelines here in america and goes to saudi arabia, venezuela for oil. it is all over the map. we have news coming in, the u.s. oil industry is helping europe with their, now majority supplier for europe, supplanting russia. that fight with russia ukraine. your final word on this? >> my final word this is a good thing but the result of past prooil policies. today's anti-oil policies will make it impossible in the future. we need to reverse this and more. read fossil future. liz: alex epstein thank you so much. point out the white house going
5:26 pm
after air conditioners, gas stoves, washing machines, refrigerators, freezers for more green energy mandates. we'll have alex back on. thanks for joining news great to see you. liz: coming up on the show, dr. fauci, dr. fauci now is questioning that lockdowns. he is saying lockdowns lasted too long, after he repeatedly pushed for them. we got congressman michael mccaul. house lawmakers pressing the white house over stonewalling on a litany of investigations including the botched exit out of afghanistan. that is coming up in "the evening edit." >> would you like to take the opportunity here today to apologize to these parents who lost their children because of fentanyl poisoning because of the policies of your department and the biden administration? >> my heart is with the family of every victim of a drug

liz: "new york post" columnist, jon levine. we love having you on the show. experts testified to house oversight this week, pandemic school lockdowns, masks, social distancing, not effective, not science based, do not work with children. that the generational loss of learning is a national concern. jon, most european countries, most countries in europe kept their schools open. they didn't see an up surge in problems. >> it is great to be here. it's tragedy what we did with schools. american students were not leading the world with math and science to begin with. there are many studies irrep aable learning loss with a whole generation of students. will have major consequences. we closed businesses, they got plenty of stimulus money. i don't know where students pick
5:32 pm
up lost learning. that will follow us for generations. it is very sad. liz: dr. fauci, adamantly pushed for lockdowns. he is questioning if they lasted too long. please get your reaction to this. >> we'll go back and examine that, is were things done too long or not but the initial decision to lock things down unequivocally saved a lot of lives. i didn't shut down anything. i recommended to the president that we shut the country down. and the only way to do that is by draconian means of essentially shutting down a country. >> we're reading through the medical journals. the jury is out that, let me back up. the jury is out that it saved lives. nobody knows that for sure. now he says we'll have to evaluate if it is too long. 15 days to slow the spread turned into two years of shutdowns? >> right. you know, it was like, two weeks to stop the spread and then, i remember thinking when that
5:33 pm
happened, well this is kind of weird. will covid be gone outside in two weeks and it wasn't. it was a full-scale lockdown until the vaccine. turned out many months of a vaccine. he is in legacy building mode right now. very clear to me he is trying, damage is done what is done you can't reverse it, he is trying to shore up what biographers saying. liz: reported i sold his memoirs for five million dollars. we'll stay on it and fact check it. showing revealing moments behind the scenes in new pbs documentary. you will see him throw a tantrum how he wants his zoom background to look with his bookshelf filled with fauci memorabilia and more. watch this. >> you're not going to use your background tomorrow morning. we'll use a filter. >> i don't want anything fancy. i don't give a [bleep]. >> logo. >> david what is the decision about tomorrow morning at 4:00. is he going to be in the office or going to be at home? >> home. so what i have right now, what
5:34 pm
you're seeing is a filter. >> why don't we take a deep breath. what i would like is that, okay? no, no seriously, david. i know you're trying to make -- i don't give a [bleep]. you see way you're moving around, like somebody carving around your head. i have to do my [bleep] biden administration is calling me to do everything. they don't approve anything unless i say yes. liz: what do you think, jon? >> funny how a man can change when they start going on television every second. i imagine most government bureaucrats are not so ought attuned to every thing in life. he is in image making mode. best show his legacy and on votive candles i see in liberal homes in new york. ever see the fauci candle? liz: the fauci candle. we've seen it. dr. fauci says covid vaccines will not get rid of covid.
5:35 pm
watch this. >> are we going to eliminator sars-cov-2? sorry, no. why? unfortunately as i mentioned on a prior slide the evolution of ge. [a, typically diverse variants just keeps changing. you don't have a stable virus. importantly something we all know, that the vaccine induced and infection induced immunity is measured in months, not in decades or lifetime. liz: jon -- >> deep or well-territory. liz: he told the world vaccines worked. told americans vaccinated they work. get boosted they work. in the same pbs documentary, telling people in the most poverty stricken areas in the d.c. area get vaccinated they work. then behind the podium he is
5:36 pm
saying they don't work. a study in january coauthored they don't work. they have deficiencies. what is going on here? >> it is hard to really know what they knew was a lie at the time, what they just didn't genuinely know. i think in some cases maybe the science changed. they didn't want to admit they didn't know it in the past. other cases they deliberately told falsehoods to the american people to influence behavior. they wanted people to get vaccinated. you will not get it if you're vaccinated. we ran and got vaccinated. sort of changed, it will not be as bad. language keeps changing. >> dr. fauci is textbook case how not to do it, how not to lead america this is example of how you should not behave. this is example of how you should not deal with the pandemic. he misled the nation, repeatedly. shown it repeatedly. we'll stay on the story. he is exactly the wrong guy at the wrong time for america. jon levine. >> highest paid federal employee at the time owe retired. more than the president.

5:42 pm
it is ridiculous. this is not 1865. you cannot show me any proof of damages from any black american living in california. this is nothing more than a clinical study by the democrats to stop the exodus of black males leaving the democratic party. one other point. there are black millionaires in california. will you give black people money simply because of their skin color regardless of economic status? it makes no sense. california never had slavery at all. there's no proof of any damages. >> americans hate racism and what happened with slavery. they don't like it at all. they want to be treated fairly hundred billion dollars really cracks watch this reparation advocate tells cnn she doesn't know how san francisco will pay all of this money out. >> how will they pay each resident? i don't know. those are the challenges we have edginess on —- as the

5:44 pm
i am saying that exactly plus the stand in reparations stunt originated out of 2020 and gavin newsom is using reparation bill simply to bolster his failed presidential campaign and the near future. that is how this originated. 2020 from the summer of riots he is playing the ultimate race card. reparation is the ultimate race card to divide this country and i find it offensive as a civil rights attorney. >> leo terrel we love you on the show thank you for joining us. coming up the white house continues to stonewall multiple investigations as the gallup poll readings some say it's underwater at 40 percent that is the sixth straight month 26 percent and that's coming up in the evening at it.
