viewer discretion advised. >> whoo. >> [crowd noise] >> sean: i am glad he will be okay. let let. let not your heart be troubled. laura, i am dying to get your take on the woke oscars. >> laura: raymond arroyo will do that. >> sean: i want your take. >> laura: i wrote the book shut up and sing 15 years ago. this was so long in the coming. they were going to lose audience share and turn off the public. you captured it with the ufc fantastic interview. that was fantastic. i really enjoyed that.

it was very, very fun. he is a great guy. >> sean: i am so glad he said that chris is up and walking tonight. >> laura: god bless. i can't watch that. that made my stomach turn, but i love him. great show. >> sean: my favorite sport. i don't know what that says about me. >> laura: i am laura ingraham and this is "the ingraham angle" from washington. why is the cdc and the blue states pushing for masking of 2 years old? my medicine cabinet breaking news down on-going child abuse. biden's anti-american presidency in 100 days. victor davis hansen and molly hemmingway on what his real standing with the public is. what is really going on behind the oscars record low rating.

raymond arroyo will unpack it in "seen and unseen." first less policing and more crime is the focus of tonight's "angle." it's deju-vu. 50 years ago liberal big city mayors are presiding over a major crime surge. democratic leaders seem like they don't care and their responses to the surgeon general are making things more dangerous in america. last summer we warned you and you were adamant about this. this increasingly anti-police sentiment was fueled by lies about systemic racism and fed by city leaders who were coddling rioters. >> seattle is fine. >> we have hundred of federal

troops on our city. it's not helping the situation. they are not wanted here. >> mr. president, bringing troops to our city, that won't happen in chicago. >> donald trump is the architect of chaos in this country right now. >> [shouting]. >> laura: almost a year later with biden in the white house things are getting worse and more violent by the day. not more peaceful as he promised. rather recognizing in crisis, biden's party is turning on those who keep us safe: law enforcement. last week it was minneapolis and this week it's louisville and the biden doj is going to war with police in the u.s. >> there is an investigation to

determine if the minneapolis police department engages in unlawful policing. >> there is a civil investigation into the louisville metropolice department. it will determine if they engage in unconstitutional stops and seizures and when the department unlawly executes serve warrants on private homes. >> laura: democrats hope this gets them one dance step closer to pass the george floyd policing act. it passed the house and it's in the senate. if would give far left actvisit groups into writing laws that

police officers have to abide by and eliminate police officers immunity from lawsuits. >> they spend very little time on deescalation. >> laura: why don't we take their legislative immunity away from them. if you are going to do it with the police. take theirs, cong. this will make our country more dangerous and policing as a profession much less desirable. already -- we talked about this -- thousands of offices are leaving the force nationwide.

the police exodus is not just happening in big cities but also in the suburbs. in wealth fairfax count, virginia, they are hemorrhaging office. they're down offices and recruits are leaving the academy. violence is way up in fairfax county with more firearms ceased this year than in the last decade combined. why would anyone sign up today for the abuse that police officers go through every time they have to make a good faith, split second life or death decision. of course there are bad cops out

there. but even the most compassionate and experienced officers they can't guarantee they will get past the woke cop hating left ever changing training rules. to be a police officer on patrol today, you are damned if you and damned if you don't. if you save a black teenager from getting a saved and a billionaire basketball player makes you an instant target. if you let her get stabbed, you are accused of letting a black girl die. protestors, remember 16-year-old bryant was shot by a police officer on tuesday -- >> shots fired reigniting the debate about reasonable force by police. >> you have a family that wants

answers. >> we will relive this unyielding nightmare of police shootings of unarmed african-americans. >> laura: police officers, many of whom signed up to make a positive difference in their community, make about $67,000 a year. the risk of making a mistake might not be worth it to a heck of a lot of them. in joe biden's america the criminals who resist arrest always get the benefit of the doubt. police rarely do. lawyers are get rich, claiming abuse before investigation are conducted hoping for the next big payout. >> we are going to see the video to know what they trying to hide from y'all. the truth can't hide forever and

a lie cannot live forever. can we go just one week without police killing a black person? they don't shoot white men in the back. shooting black men in the back is like a cliche. >> laura: how much money has that man made, from the george floyd shooting and from louisville in the breonna taylor case? everyone wants in on the action. cnn analyst showed up in north carolina today to condemn the police if another case pouring on the dramatic effect and sporting an accent that maybe i missed something that i had never heard him use on tv before. >> i will say mr. cox told me a grown black man he was not

[bleep] going to be bullied. >> wow! >> let's not focus on the disrespect shown to me but the disrespect on this family. bless his heart. >> laura: unfortunately crime is rising across america. in some cities the violence is outpacing the peak years in the early 1990s. where liberals ignore the ugly truth about the reasons, the rest of us can see what is going on. a researcher noted that a significant decline in the size of the nation's police force could have set the stage for the violent crime uptick. because of the anti-police sentiments in last summer's

protests, the cops we have left became less proactive. it's not that complicated or it should not be to anyone over the age of 50. the hideous crime wave that began in the 1960s left liberals city managering for answers. new york -- the bubble was hungry for mayor rudy giuliani who ran on a return of law enforcement. things improved but the city suffered greatly. many people gave up on urban america and moved to the suburbs. those who stayed were the super rich with doormen and the very poor in government housing and the drug dealers and the

homeless folks and the prostitutes. the left didn't so many to care about what happened to the city. if today's anti-police furor is allowed to grow, what happened decades go to great cities will happen again. the cities will empty out. when enough good people get sick of seeing their country turn into a sewer run by criminals, the responsible politicians will be thrown out of office and strong crime fighters will be elected and slowly cities will see a renaissance. earth to democrats: hating law and order is not a winning platform. that's the "angle." joining me is the north carolina

lt.governor. they are hiding the videotape and executing a man with his hands on the wheel. do you believe any of that? >> absolutely not, i do not believe all of that. pump your brakes and slow down. let the justice system take its course. let's find out what happened. what they should be focussed on is the 7-year-old who was murdered in hickory right here in north carolina. what they should be focussed on is the 7-year-old who was murdered in chicago last week. we are seeing murders take place across this nation at an alarming pace. the activists and politicians

are turning a blind eye. one of the most disgusting things happening in this nation right now is we see the poorest of the poor being murder in neighborhood across this nation, and nobody cares because they are too focussed on the issues of injustice they are highlighting. >> laura: how concerned are you about what i addressed in the "angle"? we keep this up we will drive every good cop off the force and young recruits will quit? they don't want to go through this or the split second decision they might have to make? >> we want to keep police brutality. but the way you do that is by partnering with the police to remove those bad actors. you don't do it by degenerating

the whole bunch of offices and policing all together. if we continue to do this, we will reach a day when we are going to it sorely miss the friendly police officer, his badge, night stick and gun and wish we had those days back. as we see right now, crime is sky rocketing. criminals know the policemen's hands are tied behind their back. they are committing these egregious crimes against children and innocent victims on the streets every day. >> laura: when can we expect the full videotape of mr. brown's death to be released? >> i will be completely honest with you. i have no idea when we can expect that tape. honestly, i am not looking for that tape. i am not in a position to

adjudicate that matter. we will handle it and make sure if something was done wrong, justice will be served. what we need to be focussed on and what i need to be focussed on is the death of these innocent children and innocent victims across your state. it's time to do something about the criminals. >> laura: the voter i.d. laws are something you are fired up about. those have also been called systemic racism in the country. you take sharp issue with that? >> absolutely and with democrats when it comes to racism. tonight we had the state address right here in north carolina. our democratic governor cooper had the gall to talk about how

systemic racism flows throughout in state and black people are afraid to streets without being shot by police officers. he failed to mention the success we have seen in this state. one of the great of the successes in this state in history. the first black person to be elected lt. governor was standing right behind him and he didn't even acknowledge me. for them it's not about color. it's not about race. it's not about justice. it's an about an agenda and it's sickening. >> laura: that's shocking what you just said. thank you. when anti-cop vitriole swept the country the trump administration stood by the men and women in

uniform. but president biden administration is doing everything to demonize the police department. biden used to be mr. law and order and now he's a woke activist? >> it took him 3 months last summer to condemn the violence in minimum wage and wisconsin. it's -- minneapolis and wisconsin. he is against law enforcement. he is lurching to the left. moderate joe biden is gone. lurching to the left to make sure he puts forth an agenda that supports congresswoman tlaib and maxine waters in their radical leftist agenda. >> laura: she doesn't think her

inciting of violence is going to matter at all if the case is appealed. watch. >> the judge was off track. he knows this is not the cause of an appeal. to say i will cause an appeal is not credible. >> laura: if you were in congress you would not have gotten away with that? >> no, no rational person would get away with it. her comments about being more confrontational to rioters that, aligns with kamala harris who encouraged them to not let up over the summer and to stay there and bail out some of the these protestors. the left is real focussed on making sure everybody that keeps

their covid mask on regardless of their age or if they had a vaccine. they have taken the mask off. they are not with law enforcement. we can't stand by. the american people need to judge for themselves. we can't let this continue. what we need to make sure of is any bill that comes forward that the democrats don't side with trial attorneys at the expense of law enforcement. >> laura: i am not sure why we should work with them at all, people who think we have a horrible, awful, racist country. >> president trump brought in community leaders and law enforcement together last summer. it was a beautiful thing. i was there in the room when he brought these folks together and said we can get police reform done. but what happened is the democrats started making it a lot more not only politically important to their side, they

started suggested with the leftist activists. the interesting thing, i was in a law enforcement officer earlier today. 29 years of experience and his dad 31. 60 years of experience and they will retire because of this nonsense going on in america. >> laura: it's back to the 1970s urban warfare. people, you voted for this, you are getting it. as joe biden hits 100 days, molly hemming way and victor davis hansen will tell us how his presidency is weighing on voters.

(vo) jamaica. (woman) best decision ever. (vo) feel the sand between your toes, and the gentle waves of the sea on your skin. feel the warm jamaican breeze lift your spirits and nourish your soul. escape to exactly what makes your heart beat. you will love every moment. jamaica. heartbeat of the world. let's go.

>> laura: you have seen this new nbc poll? it has biden's approval at 53%. given all the propping up he got from the media on every issue, i don't think it's that impressive. that may explain why chuck todd tried this. >> he is riding the momentum in some ways of a recovering economy and the vaccinations. he took over and things seemed

to smooth out. over 50 is solid. that's the new 60%. >> laura: what? joining me is mollie hemmingway and a fox news contract and victor davis hanson. victor, 50 is the new 60. then operation warp speed and the trump economy and the red states opening had nothing to do with the great economy we have right now? unbelievable. >> well, they had everything. that was all there is. he did hiberinate during the campaign. the problem is he will have a waterloo soon. every issue voter i.d. and you name it they don't poll 51%. people are tired.

that's why it's not 60. then we have this pent-up demand. you should encourage production but he is sending the opposite signal. production won't keep up with this 4 trillion dollars we printed. in california, gas, housing, food, lumber is sky eye. it's up 7% nationwide. we will have to address inflation. >> laura: victor nailed is. voter i.d. polling at an obscene level. he is on the wrong side of all of those issues. kamala harris in control but she is never there. >> the pedia are propping up joe biden with the same zeal they

tore down donald trump. you think about the first 100 days. it was hysteria. the negative coverage was 95%. they alleged that the new president was a russian agent who stole the election. now you have biden and it could not be more favorable. it's important that people hold pollsters accountable. i saw the "washington post" poll claiming biden had 52% and they claimed biden would win wisconsin by 17 points. a fair amount to cut off would be 16 points. that would put biden at 36% approval. hold them accountable for what they did in the last campaign for putting out fake numbers. people are not happy with the

biden administration. >> laura: and the race stuff, it's wearing on everyone at every turn. victor, you are in california and for the first time in history california lost a house seat after the census comes out. california gained 7 seats after 2 terms of reagan and now california is on the down swing. it will probably figure new york for years to come. what do we take? >> we have the highest basket of income, sales tax and gasoline tax and the highest energy costs with gasoline and electricity and the worst schools in the nation and the worst infrastructure according to some polls. the crime rate is soaring. people say if they trash the

middle-class and say i am useless and it's all illegal immigrants and i pay taxes and i get nothing for, i will go to texas or nevada. these are middle people. everybody i know leaving it's not the conservatives. these are guys that are liberal and they can't take it anymore. >> laura: all of the red states. we had a big special coming on thursday. a big town hall on the red states trailblazers. all of these republican governors are pulling in big numbers for their states. this is huge. this should give conservatives a real boost in the way they think about the future. given what we are seeing in the census numbers. >> absolutely. with republicans not controlling anything in d.c. they are looking for leadership at these states. you see how republican governors are drawing people in their

states. there is a culture awakening. florida is the most exciting place to be in the country. it's a result of policies supporting freedom with limited government and we are fighting the hostility of big tech oligarchs who are destroying the american spirit. >> laura: thank you very much. in 2014, 45 million people watched the oscars. how about last night? fewer than 10 million. raymond arroyo explains why in "seen and unseen" next. my garden brings us together. my garden is my therapy. find more ways to grow at miracle-gro.com.

week you should the ratings would be at an all time low. it was worse than you predicted. >> to put this in context, last year 23 million people watched the academy awards this year just over 9 million. you have to serve the audience. that means giving them what they want and not what you would like them to one. last night director stephen spielberg who produced this knew politics was scaring their audience off and still opened their show this way. >> if things had gone differently this past week in minneapolis i may have traded in my heels for marching boots. i know a lot of you people at home want to reach for your remote when you feel like hollywood is preaching to you.

>> that's what happened. people turned it off. people tune into movies to escape reality and be entertained. they can't come for political lectures. the politics kept coming all night long. >> whether it's a full-length feature film or a cellphone video taken by a young woman in minneapolis that became the catalyst for change. >> on average the police in america every day kill three people which amounts to 1,000 people a year. those people are mostly black people. >> that film maker won for a short film called two distant

strangers. it's like groundhog day. a black man wakes up every morning and a white cop kills him. >> laura: how is that different from watching msnbc? that's their opinion. there seemed to be very view recognizable stars at this thing. >> yes, the commercials had more star power. it was like of the oscars was at war with itself. iconic actors were trotted out to make fools of themselves. >> here is a note. some editorial suggestions that were prepared after the screening of the -- of the movie i was in. >> he sounds drugged.

refuse blanket judgment, this is for you too. >> that was a great moment. >> laura: well, in the oscars keep up the politics, next year there will be 4 people in that train station. >> they want to boycott georgia. >> laura: a couple performances should have been nominated if you gave out an award? >> for this cnn view for best supporting actress in a social distancing setting. the winner is kamala harris. >> we will lift half of america's children out of poverty. how about that? think about that. that's good stuff. that's really good stuff. >> for best original song in an

get the oxygen they need. but the michigan governor is now forcing toddlers to mask up. starting today the mask mandates applies to kids 2 to 4 years old. the cdc has new guidelines for summer carvilles. -- campus. all people in camps should be wearing a mask unless you are swimming or eating. here is a doctor. why this continued aversion to the science on masking outdoors and now with children as young as 2? >> it doesn't make any sense. >> laura: why are they doing it? >> i don't know. you would have to ask them.

there is no evidence that children are infecting adults and children themselves have very symptoms if anything. they need educational and social and immunology challenges to develop into fully functions adults. >> laura: when i saw that story, that i was surprised we have not had more athletes passing out. when i see young girls in maryland and virginia playing lacrosse and running at full speed with heavy black masks on. i don't think i could have done that or maybe would have, i don't know. >> i think the whole point ever sports is to push your physical ability to the limit. if you are cutting your oxygen

you can't push to the limit and it cuts the ability to perform. >> laura: when you have individuals who demand that little children on planes and in camps and in nursery schools wear masks, what about the psychological issue that should be developing with children as well? i see little kids becoming hypochondriacs and afraid and not able to see social cues? >> well, i am not a psychologist, but that doesn't make any sense to have children wearing masks. it doesn't make much sense for other than those who are vulnerable to wear masks. >> laura: dr. fauci is trying to rewrite the history on masks. >> i don't know how we get to herd immunity unless we normal the framework about vaccine

certification. you get the vaccine you can participate in travel, and restaurants, because that's easier for small businesses to adhere to. they just check your verification status and they can get 100% capacity. well, what about outdoors? the risks when you are outdoors which we said all along is extremely low. if you are vaccinated it's even lower. you will hear those recommendations soon. >> laura: this is the on-going lie. the goal posts keep moving. but the public is supposed to just nod and say yes, we are waiting for our next order?

none of this makes sense. >> when you have a policy that doesn't work well, you dig in. that's all they are doing. they are digging in because they can't admit they need to switch the policy to something that has more evidence for it. >> laura: when we saw the mandates being dropped in states like texas and florida, or you had a big super bowl party, we didn't see the spread that was predicted. there was fear mongering about a super spreader event. we never saw it. >> there was no evidence of a spread caused by people not wearing masks. >> laura: there is never any follow-up. these are the trusted experts who were branded in the public's eye as the be all and end-all authority on this. you two are two of the most

prominent epidemiologists in the country. why are we not applying science to what see in these statistics? >> you have to follow the motivations. if the motivations are to sell vaccines, then you make policies that maintain fear and motivation for people to demand the vaccine. even if they are not necessary for everyone. even if they are counter-productive for some. >> laura: andine if -- even if there are medicines people can take: a big announcement about thursday's show and the future of the country. stay there. coming up.
