it, linked to the next story. former president at cnn's town hall hammered the white house over the border collapse. the media and democrats a lot of people in the media hated cnn's town hall. trump's fans loved it. it quinntupled cnn's ratings. more polls show trump is the gop front runner let's get to mike emmanuel with the latest in d.c. mike? reporter: liz, good evening. former president trump weighed in on a number of issues facing the country such as the ongoing battle in washington over the got-aways' ability to borrow more money, the debt ceiling. >> i say to the republicans out there, congressman, senators, if they don't give you massive cuts , you're going to have to do a default, and i don't believe they are going to do a default because i think the democrats will absolutely cave, because you don't want to have that happen. reporter: title 42 set to expire leading to a major change in

u.s. border policy and an expected growing crisis at the border. mr. trump did not rule out reviving family separations at the southern border. >> well when you have that policy, people don't come. if the family hears they are going to be separated, they love their family. they don't come. reporter: there are also questions about the war in ukraine, the former president says he wants to stop people from dying, and insists he could resolve it quickly. >> if i'm president, i will have that war settled in one-day , 24 hours. >> [applause] >> i'll meet with zelenskyy. they both have weaknesses and they both have strengths and within 24 hours, that war will be settled. it'll be over. reporter: after the town hall, the biden campaign reacted on twitter. it's simple, folks, do you want four more years of that? if you don't, pitch into our campaign. former new jersey governor chris cristi a potential candidate slammed the former president on the ukraine war calling him putin's puppet. liz? liz: mike emmanuel thank you so

much good to see you joining us now former assistant treasury secretary for public affairs monica crowley, and former trump economic advise or steve moore. monica, your reaction to the cnn town hall last night. let's get through what msnbc media, democrats are furious about trump. he was saying, again, that 2020 election was rigged. he questioned the sex abuse verdict. he said nancy pelosi turned down 10,000 soldiers he offered to stop the capitol riots. you know, for trump fans and voters we've been talking to them. they say they know all about him they want his policies back. >> yeah, you know, liz, president trump delivered a booming economy, a secure border , and world peace. i don't know what more the american people want or expect from an american president, but he delivered on all of the major issues, and in particular, for the forgotten men and women. the people in middle america who have been so squeezed and experienced so much economic

uncertainty over the decades because the party just glossed right over them and shipped jobs and manufacturing and so many other economic things overseas. donald trump did not forget about them. he still hasn't forgotten about them and, you know, what you've described, liz, the left went into total meltdown last night, lead by congresswoman aoc, because number one they see strong 2016 energy coming off donald trump and the american people taking another look at donald trump as a real extraordinary candidate for president the next time around and they know that he has a plausible path to do it that's number two. so this is why they are furious. they cannot believe the man is still standing, after having the kitchen sink thrown at him over the last eight years, and they are going to pull out all the stops to stop him again, but the fact that he's still articulating policy that

delivered for the american people, and a future vision for what he will do in a second term, drives them absolutely crazy. liz: yeah, so, what monica just said, steve. it's the emotionality of the response, right? you know, women understand what happened with e carol. women get that, right? but it's a big context, a lot of women voters what monica is saying it's a broader context and the polls too, showing widespread dissatisfaction that this biden white house collapsed the economy, record inflation. they gave a lot of money for irs agents, green spending, but not enough for the border. they kept going with pandemic shutdowns of the entire u.s. , but they won't shutdown what's going on with the border. your reaction to all of that. >> yeah, you know, a lot of the conservatives and donors that i talk to have been saying for the last six months, trump can't win. trump can't win, and i think last night, you know, people watched that and i think monica is right. the reason the left is

apoplectic about that performance is like he can win. he had a great message. i've always said with donald trump and i admire the man greatly but there's a good, bad, and ugly with donald trump and we saw the good donald trump last night didn't we, liz? he was talking to the people in a very calm, you know, and very thoughtful way. liz: that's it. that's it stay on that for a second. so let me, i didn't mean to interrupt. no other candidate punches through the wall. the fourth wall of the screen like donald trump. he talks with people. >> he does. liz: we have in d.c. is voters are angry at what they see as an elitist class talking at them, steve, and i didn't mean to interrupt. just wanted to point that out. >> it's a good point and if he had been like that in the first debate against joe biden, he be president today. he was awful in that first debate against biden but he was so great. it reminded us of the really good trump and i just want to make another quick point if i may, which is i was struck by the answer when he was asked

that question about what would you do about inflation. you know, i've talked to the president many times about inflation and i wasn't quite sure, you know, what he was going to say and he said drop baby drop and i just jumped out of my chase and did you notice the applause when he said that? liz: yeah, gop voters in there so cnn reporting trump's polling numbers for the gop nominee are historically large, on average north of 50%. in national polls of likely gop primary voters. he's on the same track as other politicians who later won their parties nominations like george w. bush, al gore, hillary clinton, let's watch more of former president trump last night. >> do you want ukraine to win this war? >> i don't think in terms of winning and losing. i think in terms of getting it settled so we stop killing all these people. we're just letting people flow into our country. look, a country has to have borders. there's never been anything like what is happening to our country >> so just to be clear, mr. president, you think the u.s. should default if the white house does not agree to the spending cuts?

>> we might as well do it know because you'll do do it later because we are have to safe this country. our country is dying and being destroyed by stupid people. by very stupid people. >> if elected president again, what is the first thing you would do to help bring down the cost to make things more affordable? >> drill, baby, drill. >> [applause] >> we have the greatest economy in the history of our country, probably the greatest economy in the history of the world, we're energy independent, soon to be energy dominant and these stupid fools ended it and energy went from $1.87 and lower for gasoline for a car, from $ 1.87 to five, six, seven, eight and even $9 and your electricity bills went through the roof. >> will you suspend polarizing talk of election fraud during your run for president? >> yeah, unless i see election fraud. if i see election fraud i think i have an obligation to say it. i hope to do that.

the answer is yes. liz: okay, monica, you know, you heard all of that, right? and so this comes after that new abc washington post poll. a majority of voters believe president biden is not mentally or physically fit enough, but president biden is saying give him four more years when seven out of 10 say the u.s. is heading in the wrong direction, more voters say trump is mental ly and physically fit to do the job. >> yeah, and what you saw last night, liz, was classic trump. you know, these questions with great ease with his rapid firemanner and with a steady demeanor and a very good steady tone throughout. i think people are doing a double take on donald trump. i think enough time has passed since he ended his first term, and there's been so much catastrophic damage done by joe biden and his administration from the economy, raging inflation, wide open border, cities in collapse, crimes speaking, foreign policy

collapse as well. you know, the american people don't have to reach back to the reagan era to understand what a booming economy will be. they just have to go back a couple years to donald trump and that contrast, liz, is going to really serve president trump well. liz: got it, steve you got 10 seconds. >> you know, ronald regan won because he asked the american people you're better off than you were four years ago and that's exactly what trump is going to say. it was better four years ago wasn't it? so i think that's how he wins. liz: got it monica crowley, steve moore, thanks for joining us. former cia director john brennan on capitol hill for a closed door interview about that 2020 letter he co- signed along with 50 other former u.s. intelligence officials falsely speculating the hunter biden laptop story with russian disinformation. fox news david spunt live. reporter: brennan spent about four and a half hours behind closed doors for that transcribed interview obviously not in front of cameras but a

lot of anticipation to see what he said. as you mentioned he was one of 51 former intel letters who signed that letter that came out , dismissing the hunter biden laptop story as russian disinformation, potential russian disinformation about two weeks before the presidential election. we were there as brennan arrived this morning, a little bit before 10:00. he ignored questions from reporters as he walked into the committee room, but that was transcribed. now in the letter the former intelligence officials down played the existence of the hunter biden laptop and house republicans say they believe some of those officials who signed on to the letter wrote the letter to actually help the biden campaign. now, brennan's interview was today, republicans and democrats on the committee were present. next week former director of national intelligence james clap per will make his appearance before the same committee and this comes before just a day after the fbi missed a deadline to produce what's called a 1023 source form. it's a record of an interview with a confidential source. now republicans in congress claim a whistleblower told them one of the forms has an

allegation that then-vice president joe biden accepted money for a policy decision. now the fbi did not provide the form to congress, but did tell fox news in a statement, an fd-1023 form is used by fbi agents to record unverified reporting by a confidential human source, documenting the information does not validate it, establish its credibility, or weigh it against other information verified by the fbi. in very plain speak, that means, somebody had an allegation. the fbi took it down on a standard form. may be true, may not be true. the bottom line, congress cannot get to it. the fbi says they aren't going to hand it over because they don't want to ruin their sourc ing methods and they don't quite frankly want to set a precedent. liz? liz: got it david spunt thank you so much. great reporting. joining us now, house oversight chair james comer. chairman, good to see you. this heavy allegation of bribery against then-vice president biden. still no documentary evidence of

that. what's the proof there's a quid pro quo in bribery? >> well, what the whistleblower is alleging is consistent with the bank records that we produced with activity the biden families been engaged in other countries, so the fbi's response to my subpoena was explain to me what the form actually was, and we know what the form is. we just want to know what they did to verify the validity of the allegation, because this is a essential piece of our investigation of public corruption of the biden administration. liz: but right now it's basically connecting dots. it's no proof yet. so far it's allegations. right? so we understand people are talking about it but the viewers and voters out there want to see what hard proof is there of this bribery to validate this bribery charge. >> well i think a lot of the voters are like me. they are wondering what the biden family did to receive

over $10 million and have that money deposited into nine different family member's accounts. we have a credible whistleblower that senator grassley has brought forward that alleges a similar scheme in another country and the way that they describe the scheme and how the payments were made was exactly consistent with what we found in romania and the fact is that that allegation was made three years before anyone knew what we disclosed yesterday with respect to the way payments were made in romania, so i think this is a very credible allegation. it's of the utmost importance to our national security to know if the president of the united states is on the take, and the fact that the fbi sent us a patronizing response is pretty discouraging about our confidence in the fbi. liz: okay, there's this. the point is well-taken. if everything is okay and above dashboard, why use shell companies, why not just send the payment directly to hunter biden from these foreign actors? why bury the cash flow?

why were biden family spouses, children and grandchildren of joe or james biden allegedly getting money from foreign actor s including china. so senator those points are well taken but senator grassley now says the fbi's offer to accommodate the investigation is information enough that it exists and if this charge is real. so but you're also saying there's potential tax evasion and racketeering involved here. why? what's the proof of that? >> well, the definition of racketeering is setting up shell companies for no purpose other than laundering money. that word was used by the bank and different bank violations. multiple banks suspected that the biden family was involved in money laundering so you've got racketeering, you've got money laundering, you've got tax evasion, you've got the potential for hunter biden being an unregistered foreign agent that's something jonathan turley talks about all the time.

there are lots of potential crimes here by the president's family. if the president's family didn't do that, then one would have to assume joe biden did something in return for that money. liz: all right, so people just want to see the proof. >> i want to see the proof. liz: yeah, now it's like connect ing the dots. these are heavy charges of bribery, so, you know, we're in a historic time. we've never seen a sitting president when he was vice president accused of that. i mean, the "wall street journal" points this out too that e-mails and text messages from hunter biden's former business partner that "hunter demanding more money because china's cefc is coming to be my partner, to be partners with the bidens" and noting that"i'm the only one putting an entire family legacy on the line" and then hunter biden boasted in another e-mail that mr. ye of china would pay him millions of dollars for a "introductions alone" so, you know, those e-mails kind of point to something nefarious and not good

going on. >> there's a pattern there. we showed fruits of this activity and the fruits were the $10 million deposited in the biden family accounts. we want to know why and we think this whistleblower had evidence that we need for our investigation. liz: okay, chairman comer, thanks for joining us tonight. we've got an ""evening edit"" exclusive coming up. senator joni ernst is going to take on the nih. blatantly reinstating funding for super virus research that was already canceled under trump this is a terrible chaotic oversight of research that there was not enough of it under nih and critics say of nia d, former director dr. fauci, it's being blamed for helping to trigger pandemics worldwide, including covid, and we are less than seven hours before trump's title 42 border policy expires. i'm going to stay on the story and the growing list of democrat s, talking and preaching tolerance but then insulting

liz: okay let's get to this news let's bring back to the show house border security caucus co- chair congressman brian babbo n of texas former acting i.c.e. director tom homan gentlemen, good to see you both. trump's title 42 expires at midnight. congressman what do we know about how many illegal immigrant s are heading to the border? >> well we've gotten word there's 40,000 mostly venezuelan s going up here. the incentive is still there, and in fact moreso now that title 42 is going away. deliberately dismantling the last of our tools to control and get a secure border. deliberately. i know of no other developed nation, liz, that has zero

borders like we have, because of alejandro mayorkas and biden's board it policies. liz: what do you think of what's going on, tom? how many illegal immigrants caravans what's the number you're hearing? >> we're looking at south of rio grande valley you've got about 25,000 there in shelters and south of el paso, you've got over last count was 40,000 between the stretch from el paso to the sector. look, this is, i agree with the congressman. this is a self-inflicted wound. if they want to secure the border, liz, they can re-implement remain in mexico programmed to. the federal courts, that was a game changer for the trump administration. matter of fact the federal court ordered the biden administration to put it back in play. they just ignored the federal court order so i find it disgusting this administration with the most secure border in my career, and they unsecured it

on purpose. and they haven't done a single thing for the last two years. liz: yeah, now, we're getting stories the washington post is reporting the president is upset about everything. this feels like a leak, just a personal opinion. that feels like somebody is trying to paint a narrative that the president is now upset about what's going on with the border. congressman, we have drug and human trafficking cartels controlling the border. they are making profits on the level of a fortune 500 company. migrants are getting killed. women are getting sexual assault ed, children are being brutalized, you know, let's listen to this for the first time finally the president admits the border is "in chaos" after he repeatedly denied that and so did secretary mayorkas. >> it remains to be seen it's going to be chaotic for a while. >> when you said there will be chaos at the border, for how long? >> well, the chaos at the border for a number of years.

liz: okay, he says it's in chaos , congressman, but will reportedly veto the new house border security bill? >> well, let me just say this. i'm very very proud of our conference, our speaker, our leadership, our chairman, and our rank-and-file members. we have just passed really the most thorough border security bill that we've passed and i've been serving here five terms. this is the best one i've ever seen. in fact the first one that we have passed in that length of time. the downside of it is we don't have the white house. we don't have the senate, but i think this absolutely puts a lot of pressure on this president and on the democrat party, because people know that 100,000 -plus americans are dying each year from the tons and tons of fentanyl and other drugs coming across the border. as you sai king, the cartels have been put in charge of the border basically.

they've got 85,000 unaccompanied children or the whereabouts we don't know that have come in are supposedly they have gone to other families. families for what? they don't do any dna checks or background checks, criminal history on these so-called families. liz: okay. >> the inhumanity is stunning. it's unbelievable. liz: and terrorists caught crossing. >> over 300. liz: yeah, what the congressman just said, tom, if you were sitting in front of president biden right now, and if you were sitting in front of homeland security secretary mayorkas, what would you say to them? >> they both need to resign in disgrace. secretary mayorkas needs to be impeached. he's an embarrassment for the position he holds. he has no integrity. he lied to congress numerous time under other and on top of everything you just mentioned, i couldn't have said it better myself. i've worked for members of the hill on the legislation hr-2 it's a great package, both the white house and the senate pushed back on it but this isn't

about illegal immigration any more. this is about border security. when you cause a crisis this big taking 70% of agents off the line and title 42 ends they will take 90% of the agents off the line that's when the fentanyl flows, that's when the trafficking of women and children increase, that's when the number of migrants, 1,700 already, that's when they increase, number of americans dying will increase but most importantly, like the congressman just said you've got a couple hundred trying to enter this country. you've got 1.7 million gotaways and border patrol has from 170 different countries and some are sponsors of terror. if you don't think a single one of that 1.7 didn't come here to blow something up, then you're ignorant to the data. this is the biggest national security failure in this country since 9/11 and the congressman is right. if senate refuses to pass this bill, then they are a national security crisis. liz: thanks for joining us

tonight on the show. thank you, liz. appreciate it. liz: same thing with us too. we've got an "evening edit" exclusive tonight. senator joni ernst will join us. the nih blatantly reinstating funding for dangerous super virus research that's blamed for pandemics around the world. this funding was already canceled under trump. this is about the terrible, chaotic oversight of lethal research already blamed again for helping to trigger pandemics around the world including covid and lawmakers warn the epa crackdown on power plant emissions will cause your energy bills to go up and trigger power blackouts. that's coming up on the "evening edit."

liz: okay, big questions over whether your energy bills will go up even more, and what the white house is doing with backup plans for the you power

grid because the epa is releasing rules to crackdown on emissions that would effectively force all power plants to buy new technology across the country. critics have said this is un economical and ineffective. grady trimble has the story live on capitol hill. grady? reporter: hi, liz. the epa says the rule will drastically reduce greenhouse gas emissions at power plants, but in order to comply those plants fueled by fossil fuels or fired by fossil fuels, i should say, would have to install billions of dollars of carbon capture, or hydrogen fuel equipment. if they don't meet the new standards they could have to shutdown. critics say the rule will drive up electricity rates and make the nations power grid less reliable. epa administrator mike all reagan is disputing those claims >> when you really take a look at this rule, it takes into account, you know, all of the energy requirements and needs of this country, in a way that doesn't compromise

reliability, but the impacts to cost are also extremely negligible. reporter: west virginia senators have been some of the most outspoken about this rule, fear ing it could force coal powered plants to shutter. senator joe manchin says he'll oppose all epa nominees until the biden administration stops what he calls government over reach. his republican counterparts, senator shelley moore capiteau is pushing back too. >> oh, this is going to crush my state. again, another impractical over reaching probably illegal regulation out of the epa. you're going to have to up the price. you're going to have outages like we had last winter where there was a call to restrict juror usage of your heating. reporter: this is the second major rule the epa has proposed in just the last couple of weeks , in an effort to fight climate change. this one, and the proposal to try to get more americans in electric vehicles, liz, will almost certainly face legal

challenges. liz: interesting, grady trimble great reporting as always thank you so much. joining us now, texas public policy foundation energy expert former congressman jason isaac. jason, it's good to see you. what's your take on this because it's reportedly, this proposal reportedly would hit nearly all fossil fuels power plants that generate about 60% of the nations electricity. senator manchin says the white house has no adequate backup plan to replace the lost base load generation there. >> liz, you're right. i live a high carbon lifestyle. i think the rest of the world should too. it's truly where you have economic prosperity and environmental leadership like we've experienced here in the united states, but just in the last two years, electric prices are already up 15%, and disconnects from utilities, from electric utilities, are up 30%. in 2021, one in six americans could expect to get a disconnect notice over 12 months and this is only going to be exacerbated when we threaten 60%

of our grid that produces our reliable electricity that we can count on. doesn't matter when the wind is blowing and the suns shining. it's that thermal generation from natural gas and coal that is feeding the backbone of this country and providing the energy when we need it. liz: it's happening now but china is ramping up the coal and fossil fuel generation for solar panels and, you know, green energy products. i mean, but now we've got special presidential envoy for climate john kerry. he's warning the white house will target now farmers and the agriculture sectors emissions. he's saying that must be "front and center" that they produce one-third of the world's total greenhouse gas emissions, so they are cracking down on the u.s. while around the world we don't see as dramatic a crackdown in many nations, including china. >> well, we've seen it devastating crackdown in sri lan ka in 2019 the first then president ran as the net- zero candidate on the base of the earth banning the use of importation fossil

fuels based fertilizers and within one years period of time this country was on its path to economic prosperity exceeding that of india and in one year food production decreased 40%. food costs went up 80%. we all saw the video when his palace was overrun, and he fled to singapore the highest per capita co 2 emissions on the earth, and at the same time going through a colera outbreak, because they don't have affordable reliable energy. we're world leaders. liz: it just feels like they are cavalier about the impact, and the effects. it's like they didn't really, you know, didn't really focus on what really the outcome of their policies be , and how it hit the u.s. economy. you just gave a real-world example. there's also this too. they are just blazee about money printing and government over spending. inflation is much higher than the feds target, more than double, so we want to get your reaction to democrat brad

sherman. let's listen to what he just said recently just yesterday about inflation and the cause of it. watch. >> crypto bros make money literally by making money and they've made over a trillion dollars out of thin air. they will accuse the u.s. government of making money out of thin air. maybe we do but we're the u.s. government. liz: maybe we make money out of thin hair, but we're the u.s. government, jason, final word? >> well, printing money is driving inflation and so is cost of energy and when this government, this administration is using a whole of government approach to attack american produced energy, energy that's produced more responsibly anywhere else on the face of the earth that is also driving inflation. liz: jason isaac, we've got a growing list of democrats that have been preaching tolerance, but also insulting hispanic voters saying illegal immigrants are needed for jobs like clean ing hotels. also, "evening edit" exclusive we've got senator joni ernst on

liz: well we're really excited for this segmented joining us for about "evening edit" exclusive from senate arms service and senate agriculture senator joni ernst and the white coat waste project justin good man. great to have you both on. thank you so much for joining us okay, senator you've been helping to lead the charge to stop future pandemics killing people around the world. both of you just filed federal complaints that echo health alliance broke federal laws and still getting money to work on super-viruses senator? can you tell us what's going on? >> yes, exactly. this week, the biden administration, through the national institutes of health, reinstated the funding that flows through nih to echo health to study the coronavirus and bats. this is the very project that may have lead to the origins of covid-19 and we know that echo

health has disregarded our laws by failing to disclose associated studies with our taxpayer dollars, so it is very unfortunate that president biden continues to go down this path and i'm so thankful that we have the white coat waste project and justin goodman out there working to safeguard our tax dollars as well. liz: yeah, so what the senator just said, justin, there's more and more evidence of a breakdown in oversight of this research. how much money are we talking about, justin? >> so, echo health alliance is like the poster child at this point for waste, fraud and abuse of federal contracting and it's a recipe for disaster to keep shipping taxpayer dollars to hem to cook up super-viruses in foreign countries. just since the pandemic began, echo health alliances has received $50 million in new taxpayer funding from the nih, from the national science foundation, and even from the d od's weapons of mass destruction account. they are still going around the

world with our tax dollars collecting viruses and remote places bringing them into laboratories for dangerous animal experiments in high security bioagent labs in foreign countries where there's no oversight or accountability. this is just in sanity. liz: so what justun just said, senator. didn't hhs the inspector general and the gao found echo health is breaking the laws here? >> yes, absolutely, they have, and we have really pushed on this issue here in congress as well, because they are totally disregarding our nations laws and yet they continue to receive this funding. justin mentioned the amount of dollars that have gone since covid but overall echo health has received over $80 million since 2008 and never mind the fact that they are working through echo health to the wuhan institute of virology, that's where these dollars are going and we know they are closely associated with the chinese military and of course the

chinese government, the communist government, so here we are. american taxpayer dollars being funded to one of our greatest adversaries. liz: just stay with the senator for a second. senator, we've seen scientists testifying that you don't need to do super-virus research to create drugs and vaccines is that true? >> yes. i would say that that is true. of course i am not a scientist, but i would lean heavily on those that are very careful about this type of research. we want to make sure there's proper oversight if these projects are being conducted and echo health has blinded us. they will not allow us access to information and that does go against our laws, so one, they're breaking the laws. two, why is president biden continuing to fund echo health alliance through the into i had when we know that they will not comply with u.s. laws? liz: so what the senator just said, justin, echo health

reportedly did not notify nih when a lethal super virus had been created in a lab overseas, intentionally did not spend u.s. tax dollars on the independence taught of virol ogy, for dangerous experiments in bat coronavirus. there's like an iron curtain dropped around this research, washington post has been trying to get information. dr. fauci at the time was stone walling in 2021 about the funding of this research. what do you finding, justin, why is it so difficult to get information out of an agency that taxpayers fund? >> these white coats are entrenched in echo health alliance have deep ties to not only the u.s. government and people like dr. fauci at the nih, but also to the chinese government, and the dod. we really don't know how deep the tentacles of echo health go into our federal government and that's why these investigations are so important. the ones being lead by senator joni ernst we're so grateful for her leadership but ultimately, we see that echo health alliance continues to

violate the law with impunity days after it was awarded with a new grant and that's insult to injury to not only the millions of people who died from the pandemic but also the billions of people whose lives were crippled because of it. you stop the money stop the madness. we have to defund this place. liz: senator joni ernsts, justin goodman, we'll stay on it thank you have much. coming up, congressman pat fallo n, i growing list of democrats preaching tolerance, now insulting hispanic voters saying illegal immigrants are needed for meanial jobs like cleaning hotels and toilets coming up in the "evening edit." let's check in with dagen and shawn with a hot hour coming up on the bottom line. >> thank you, we have a great show coming up two border congressman tony gonzalez breaking down all on the border happening right now before title 42 ends. dagen: john levine on the new york post biden family of drift

liz: welcome to the show from house oversight. with us is congressman pat fallon. congressman, good to see you. get your reaction to democrat hank johnson, joining growing list of democrats accused of stereotyping illegal immigrants,

talk of moralizing, and tolerance, there is a lot of elitism too. they are above it all. that is what critics say. watch this. >> folks coming across are ones who are helping to put food on our table. we would have nobody taking care of the building, the construction of our homes. we would have nobody cleaning up in the hospitals. >> the diversity of this community as distinct as the bodegas of the bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of miami, as unique as the breakfast tacos here in san antonio. [applause] is your strength. >> immigrants pick the food we eat, clean our homes, look after the most precious in our families. >> we have a shortage of workers in our country. you see in florida, some of the

farmers, growers saying why are you shipping these immigrants up north, we need them to pick the crops down here. dagen: really, that is why? pick crops and clean hospitals and clean toilets and china homes? i mean that is what it is all about? >> liz, wow, soft bigotry of low expectations. shows the left is the party fixated on race. but that immaterial. i thought hank johnson's article will capsize. he has a history of saying crazy, nutty things. you know what? america wants the world's best. there are 3.8 million people waiting to come into the country legally. we're rooting for those folks, for those folks on the left, 59% of those people are people of color. we want talent to make america stronger. liz: legal immigration. >> exactly. liz: illegal immigrations good

for cleaning hotels and toilets. they're good for the economy. democrats are declaring state of emergency in new york and chicago? >> they were perfectly fine, with border states particularly texas hand 50 millions of folks but you hand them 50 to martha's vineyard and they have a meltdown. i would send them to nancy pelosi's house inn san francisco, joe biden beach mouse in delaware. they will see, every state border state thanks to joe biden. liz: it is catch-and-release right now, that is what is happening. going back to title 8, from title 42. it will result in catch-and-release. biden white house with a public messaging campaign, they are releasing tens of thousands of immigrants to the u.s. your final word on that? >> our only border patrol can handle 5000 illegal crossings a

day, that is the max that is a bad day. they have handled 10,000 the past several days. now from crisis to catastrophe. now it's cataclysm. liz: congressman pat fallon, we will stay on the story. hope you have on you soon. we understand the joke, capsizing. a island would tip over because too heavy. >> guam would capsize with too much military equipment on it. liz: thank you for that reminder congressman. i'm liz macdonald. thank you for watching "the evening edit" on fox business. it was a jam-packed hour. we covered a lot of news. we will continue to fight for you the little guy. now "the bottom line," dagen and sean always about the viewer. >> good to see you, liz. liz: great to see you. ♪ dagen: gooev
