>> dana: i do, too. see you on the five as well a little bit later today. >> bill: don't get too close to the drone. >> dana: or the volcano. >> bill: and everything will be okay? >> dana: here is harris faulkner. >> bill: bye. >> harris: president biden is bending to the demands of the far left again and announce faulkner. you are in "the faulkner focus". we'll now see four times the number of refugees that president biden had initially said he would allow to come into america. this follows two weeks after he said he would keep president trump's limit of 15,000. but not now. biden has quadrupleed the number to more than 62,000 people this year. the pressure was enormous on him to cave in.

congresswoman ocasio-cortez called the original cap completely and utterly unacceptable. congressman warned president biden has broken his promise to restore humanity. senator dick durbin tweeted say it ain't so, president joe? biden who quickly wilted to the pressure is getting praise from that same senator durbin today. but former acting ice director tom homan says this timing of this could not be worse. >> president trump decreased that number and joe biden agreed with that. he made the right decision at the beginning of the year. but folded to the progressive left again. it doesn't make sense. a bide -- a bad time when the border is out of control to increase that cap. >> president biden is explaining his reversal on this issue with this statement. he says in part the sad truth is that we will not achieve

62,500 admissions this year. we're working quickly to undo the damage of the last four years. it will take some time but that work is already underway. and even though the president initially declined to raise the refugee cap for this year, top officials are blaming the cap of 15,000 that biden was okay with just last month on trump. >> number one, please remember that we inherited a system that was dismantled in its entirety and we had to really rebuild it. >> somebody who had the dhs secretary job before mayorkas skofs at the suggestion that the trump administration broke the immigration system. >> facts don't support that ludicrous claim. we handed them a secure border and the numbers from illegal apprehensions and numbers across the board demonstrate the border was safe and secure and the immigration system was working.

>> the white house teased a cash transfer program last month as a way to address root causes of migration from central america. now two house republicans want details about how that would work writing this raises further concerns that such aid would simply be wasted on corrupt politician titions and organizations serving their own interests and not those of the interests of the american people. however, if remarks this morning the vice president who is in charge of addressing root causes in the region acknowledged the importance of getting that u.s. taxpayer money to the right people. >> we will not make significant progress if corruption in the region persists. >> immigration not much of a public focus of the white house today, though. the vice president is now on her way to wisconsin and president biden will be talking about covid-19 vaccines here at the white house. harris. >> harris: thank you very much. in focus now republican national committee chairwoman ronna mcdaniel. great to see you today.

first of all, let's start with where or how americans will immediately feel a quadrupleing of the cap of refugees to the united states. >> these border states and border personnel will be unindated even more. what joe biden keeps doing is putting a magnet out to draw people to this country illegally putting them in harm's way, putting them in the hands of cartels who they have to pay to make this dangerous trek and it is impacting children at a significant rate. many are dying as they make this journey. instead of saying let's tackle the immigration problem and have immigration reform, he keeps throwing quick fixes out there that appease the democrat progressive left without actually solving a root problem and boy, i feel so bad for our border patrol agents who are so overwhelmed right now and they have a president and white house who doesn't care about them and the task they are undertaking.

>> harris: it is interesting to hear you talk directly about the families, refugees particularly and the children because we know the pressure that is happening at the border right now in terms of protecting children and what a huge job it is as you point out for the border patrol. albanian refugee says biden's decision to raise the refugee cap is not about helping people, though. watch this. >> why increase the number of refugees now? what is the intent? the intent of the democrat party is to create a permanent underclass in the united states so it can be dependent on the government and create a voting block for the future of the democratic party. we should understand the intent is not to bring these people to get them out of misery and out of suffering. >> harris: that's an interesting first person perspective. your reaction to it. >> i think he is doing tremendous harm to these families who are coming here with hope and want to come to

the united states of america but are being put in the hands of cartels. i talked to governor abbott last week. he said there isn't a single person coming across our border who isn't being dealt with for the cartels. they have to pay the cartels. many children are dying along the way and suffering horrific abuses as they come to this country. not only will the president and vice president go to the border they haven't spoken to the governors dealing with this firsthand. he is putting a policy in place. he keeps aoc and durbin and the progressive left happy but it is a catastrophe for everybody who is dealing with it in realtime in our southern states. >> harris: how is it that the progressives on the hill have more pressure and can get more effective action from this president than millions of americans? >> he ran as a moderate, harris. we know this. he ran as i will unite people. we saw his inaugural speech. he has been nothing but.

he has spoken more to xi and putin than to mccarthy and mcconnell. he has no interest working across the aisle. it's telling they haven't gone to the border and talked to the agents and talked to the families and talked to the people who are dealing with this crisis firsthand. and that shows that he is not really interested in solving the problem. he is interested in giving to his progressive friends and making sure they get their win. >> harris: we heard that one albanian refugee talk about biden is not focused on helping the children. here are some children that maybe can get the president's attention different subject. some fifth graders in virginia went off script. they were to tell the president and first lady what remote learning has been like.

>> one student said it was terrible. we have children. we know firsthand chairwoman what the journey has been like. one-third of students just to remind everybody still in the united states right now are not getting full-time in-person learning. a cup of truth from the kids. >> i think it's the first time that president biden took unscripted questions or talking points from children. i also think it's interesting that the cdc is taking their guidance from teachers unions. maybe they should talk to the children. this is what it's about. kids who are lacking in education, who aren't getting that in-person instruction, who are getting a gap in what they need to get ahead. i think tim scott put it so well in his speech saying kids being locked out of the

classroom today are our future adults being locked out of their potential and it's so true. i have a son that's in virtual. i would be happy for him to pick up the phone and talk to president biden about how awful it is for him. it is really, really catastrophic for these kids. i deal with it firsthand and sad this administration is putting the unions above the children. that's the problem across this country now. democrats are putting the unions above the science and the children because we know it's safe for them to go back in the classroom right now. >> harris: chairwoman ronna mcdaniel i want to get to this before i let you go. democrats are locked out of a texas runoff election. that race will now see two republicans facing off for a congressional seat in texas. a "washington post" op-ed is saying it's a -- the suburbs

snap back and republicans lock step. you and i have talked so many times about how productive and successful the rnc has been at the door knocks. imagine post -- a time when many people are fully vaccinated post that time when people might not open their doors. is that op-ed right if you get back out there now? >> we were knocking doors, we contacted 4,000 voters to get them out. we knew we had to target likely republicans in that district and the democrats did it too. they were fighting for the seat. don't let them pretend they were walking away. their best chance to flip a house seat and ran 11 points behind joe biden in 2020. this is huge for republicans that we walked away with two republicans in the runoff and we'll pick up another house seats that shrinks nancy

pelosi's margin heading into 2022. five seats away from taking back the majority. >> harris: just about every president loses in the first mid-term. a resetting point. they kind of like a little split government. bloodbath is strong language for the "washington post". what is your quick take on how bad it could be? >> i never want to get comfortable. i want everybody to work hard. we can take back the house. it is five seats away. usually it's 26 seats in a mid-term. republicans have to show up. we have to be united. let's remember what joe biden is doing to this country and not focus on our inner disputes. we have to work together if we'll win and take back the house in 2022. >> harris: ronna mcdaniel chairwoman of the rnc. great to see you today. thank you. has the c.i.a. gone woke? the new recruitment video that's drawing fire and scorn

and have you seen this? >> you're stopped for using your cell phone. >> for him being a mexican racist. what is that name? here you go, mexican racist. you will always be a mexican. you will never be white, right? >> harris: a glimpse at the everyday life of an officer. the racist rant gone viral. we'll get reaction from jason rantz coming up. stay close. ) there's a roada road right th.

the past few days. at least two people have died in georgia after those storms ripped through there. and twisters will continue to threaten cities across the deep south. the ohio valley and through the southern plains. president biden's new travel restrictions on india go into effect today. covid-19 infections and deaths mounting with alarming speed as you know. there is no end in sight. it's a crisis in india. the country has 1.4 million. people dying outside and overwhelming hospitals and funerals. fires lighting up the night sky. the u.s. food and drug administration could authorize covid pfizer 19 vaccine for youngsters agents 12 to 15 for emergency use. they already authorized for emergency use for anyone age 16 and older. last month the company reported

its shot provides protection for the younger group as well. a woman goes into a racist rant and repeatedly calls a sheriff's deputy a murderer. he pulled her over in southern california and the video just the latest incident of troubled interactions between the public and law enforcement. watch this. >> speed limit is 40. i was going 38. why are you harassing me? >> you are correct. i pulled you over because -- >> you are a murderer. i was recording you. you are giving me a cell phone ticket. is that why you are harassing me >> not harassment. >> you can't do it while you are driving. >> i'm perfectly legal and i'm a teacher. so there. >> congratulations. >> you are a murderer. >> only citing you for using your cell phone while driving. that's it. >> for him being a mexican

racist. what is that name? here you go, mexican racist. you are always going to be a mexican. you will never be white. you know that, right? >> harris: that woman, identified herself as a teacher. however, los angeles sheriff says this just proves that you cannot judge a profession by one bad actor. >> if she represents her profession, is that an indictment on her profession? because you have one incident like george floyd, murdered, all right. some people want to label the entire profession as if everybody was a derek chauvin. bigotry racism comes in all colleges and ages. proof of that right there. >> harris: he came to new york to teach everybody today. jason rantz joins me now. what to make of what happened with that woman.

>> i think there are two separate issues. number one, people are told to hate and distrust police officers. that police are the enemy of minorities. that shades every single interaction someone might have with police which makes any interaction way more tense than it needs to be. now in this case it was just nasty but in other instances it can lead to violence unnecessarily. so we have to keep that in mind when we hear of any of these kind of interactions. thankfully in this case we have body camera footage. this officer paid for body camera for himself. this wasn't provided by his agency. thank god he had that so we were able to understand what truly went on because what this woman ended up doing was filing a complaint against this officer and clearly she was the aggressor and not him. number two, i think this is also really important to understand, there is this

radical belief from some activists in the community nationwide that if you don't follow the script as a person of color, that folks on the left want you to follow, you are not really truly a minority. you are not latino enough or black enough or gay enough or muslim enough if you don't believe a certain thing if you're a police officer. we are told that while at the same time we hear from activist police forces need to look like the community. you won't be able to recruit people of color to join police departments when you are being told that you are sell-out to your community if you become a police officer. this is really not just odious from a racial harassment attack by counterproductive to the main argument. if you want to recruit police officers and not only do we have a staffing crisis at police departments across the country, people don't want to become police officers for this very reason. >> harris: the minority person who was being badgered and harassed was the police officer by the woman who says you will

never be white. by the way, who is she teaching that she doesn't know in most places you can't drive and be on your cell phone. he is saying this is the infraction that's occurred here. i mean, what is she teaching? maybe they aren't real people. maybe she is talking the cut-outs of people, i'm not sure. but what you are saying is this is part of a bigger issue of wow, how hard will it be to recruit more cops? tough, tough, tough. i want to get to this because jason, all of this is happening simultaneous to something that we were feeling across the country. it should not be acceptable, this type of crime. but you will notice where the crimes are happening. predominantly democrat-led cities. just this weekend in chicago 46 people were shot, 7 people killed. new york city shootings were up last week 200%. who wants to live in a society

without law and order? they want to defund even more the cops in new york. how do they survive? >> i'm not sure what leaders in these cities are waiting for because almost every one of these major cities should be sounding the alarms. they are really not. chicago and new york are not the only ones. baltimore, new york city, seattle, portland. you need to be screaming about this and instead in some cases you have folks who are doubling and tripling down on the defunding. in seattle they're still trying to defund the police department to the tune of $5 1/2 million more dollars. you have kids being shot. a 14-year-old in chicago two weeks ago in seattle a 16-year-old opened the door to his family's apartment and was murdered. these are kids who are being killed and no one seems to be sounding the alarms. instead we are claiming that police are the problem. police aren't the ones killing

these people. police aren't responsible for these deaths. there are instances in which police are doing bad things but the truth of the matter is these police officers are the ones trying to solve the crimes and they aren't able to in a quick enough manner because they're the ones being defunded and they're overwhelmed and have case after case after case being put on their laps and they don't have the resources to get the bad guys because they're being defunded. >> harris: one cop going viral. another video for you and i to watch. >> i wake up every morning and kiss my family goodbye knowing that there is a possibility i won't come home. i am tired of every time i wake up in the morning there is someone else polarizing the fact that maybe law enforcement is just not a good thing. all of us are not bad.

i am not -- >> harris: that's a heart scratch. that is major kevin dingle, a safety officer at moore house college in atlanta and his video on tik tok has been seen more than a million times. i say a heart scratch. it is hard to watch that and not really just viscerally feel every word he is saying. >> we should define every officer by him and the names christopher and logan fox and all those killed. a small sampling of the 19 officers who lost their lives in just april of this year. and there are many others who are doing so much hard work and they are losing their lives helping us. let's stop defining by the small percentage of bad officers and start defining by the true heroes who are sacrificing themselves and the families that are losing loved ones to protect us all. >> harris: you so importantly said that there may be some that we need to do a better job

of weeding out of departments who do bad things. why can't we do both? why can't we love those who serve and protect and love the job as much as major dingle there and also hold some accountable? we can. we just have to choose to. jason, thank you. the c.i.a. is using wokeness, i don't know if you've seen this, to attract new recruits and the reviews are not turning out so good for the c.i.a. the video that's getting mocked across social media and the c.i.a.'s response. >> we shouldn't be talking about being woke as an attempt to recruit people. it is a big mistake. we'll end up with less talented people if we focus on wokeness and not -- don't get me wrong, i love my rv, but insuring it is such a hassle. same with my boat. the insurance bills are through the roof.

-[ sighs ] -be cool. i wish i could group my insurance stuff. -[ coughs ] bundle. -the house, the car, the rv. like a cluster. an insurance cluster. -woosah. -[ chuckles ] -i doubt that exists. -it's a bundle! it's a bundle, and it saves you money! hi. i'm flo from progressive, and i couldn't help but overhear... super fun beach day, everybody.

veteran homeowners. the past four years have seen interest rates drop to record lows while home prices have just gone up and up. giving you a once in a lifetime chance to turn the equity in your home into cash in your hand. the newday 100 va cash out loan lets you take out $50,000 or more, by letting you borrow up to 100% of your home's value. make the call while rates are still near all-time lows! >> harris: joint chiefs of staff mark millie said he is now open to a proposal that

takes assault cases in the military out of commanders' hands. i argued against that. we had a problem. there is a broad lack of confidence by junior enlisted not just women but men and women and the fairness and fair outcomes of a sexual assault occurs and a lack of confidence in the chain of command. we've been at it for years and we haven't effectively moved the needle and we have to. end quote. but some are arguing commanders should have the final say when to prosecute cases since they're obligated to maintain order and discipline among their ranks. so far defense secretary lloyd austin has yet to weigh in. the central intelligence agency is adding wokeness to its latest recruitment video and getting widely criticized for doing so. first watch the clip for yourself. it features a 36-year-old c.i.a. agent using a torrent of woke buzz words to describe herself. >> i'm a woman of color, i am a

mom, i am a cisgender millennial diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder. i am intersectional but my existence is not a box checking exercise. >> harris: david spunt in live in washington with more on the backlash to this. >> this series is called humans of the c.i.a. it began in 2019. multiple videos on youtube for the central intelligence agency's youtube page supposed the give people watching online a chance to peel back the curtain and see who works at the c.i.a. after all the c.i.a. to the general public is largely closed off. you can't walk inside. they don't have press conferences on camera. this video as they call it a social media video shows that one of the video features this employee who said she is proud of her work at the c.i.a. and says she didn't get hired by a fluke. instead she credits years and years of determination and hard

work. >> i used to struggle with imposter syndrome. at 36 i refuse to internalize misguided ideas of what a woman can or should be. i am tired of feeling like i'm supposed to apologize for the space i occupy rather than intoxicate people with my effort, my brilliance. >> at least one person for worked for the c.i.a. as operations officer says some of the wording in the video doesn't really help the overall mission of the agency around the globe. listen. >> the first question is what happens when c.i.a. is deeply political not just at the senior levels but the rank and file? that's a nightmare situation. i've been on this program with you and others many times warning that this is what happens when the senior leadership says bring your politics to work. >> we just got a statement in from a spokesperson for the agency. in 2019 we started the social media series humans of the c.i.a. and real officers and

roles in advancing the national security mission and humanize c.i.a. through instagram and facebook accounts so followers can see themselves here and apply. humans at the c.i.a. has been largely successful and they plan to continue this series. harris. >> harris: thank you very much. i want to bring in now the power panel. rachel campos-duffy fox news contributor and host of moms on fox nation and richard fowler fox news contributor as well. great to see you both. rachel. i'll start with you. mom puts you in this diverse category. yet just a couple of weeks ago some of the woke crowd were saying if you have too many babies, you are committing environmental vandalism. i'm so confused right now. i didn't realize it would make it into the c.i.a. video that i'm a mom. >> by the way, i didn't know if i was watching a poetry jam session or recruitment video.

it was comical but a little scary. it hits close to home with me. my sister a latino mom of four was a case officer in the c.i.a. for 10 years and i asked her what she thought of this video. she was horrified. the intersectional cisgender mom of color with anxiety disorder. me, me, me narsism is what she thought. c.i.a. is about quiet service. this is a very dangerous time to have people in the c.i.a. who aren't, you know, absolutely devoted to america. if you listen to that video she never identifies herself as an american. she never talks about america. you see the problem that this c.i.a. is in right now is that because of what we have done to our schools in terms of radical indoctrination they can no longer recruit on the basis of patriotism and service to country. they have to use all this intersectional woke crazy talk in order to attract young

people because that is not enough. by the way, it's also dangerous because when you have young people who believe that america is systemically racist and believe that america is not exceptional that doesn't just distract from our mission in terms of hr and all the human resources stuff that goes on in the agency but also our enemies can exploit that for double agents and all kinds of things. so we have a -- our lack of patriotism and what we're doing to our kids in school is a national security problem. this recruitment video is exhibit a. >> harris: richard, there is a way to make it even more fair. i guess then the recruitment video would be six hours long. you would have to broaden it out. i'm an army brat. there are lots of things about me that are identifiers that i would want on that list. who decides what goes on the list? who are the woke deciders? >> i don't think it's about woke or not being woke.

in this particular video the woman wanted to let you know who she was and why she is serving her country. we have to be careful when we have these type of conversations. a couple of years ago we were having a conversation about trans folks in the military. a big backlash. you realize the military is the number one employer of trans people and they serve their country boldly and bravely and carry the american flag and go to places and protect democracy. when we decide to use words like wokeness and non-wokeness what you have is -- whether they go to langley or the pentagon to serve our country and do it because they are moms, americans, black, cisgender or guy they still serve our country. >> harris: i think it's beautiful to say you do things and all of these things exist. i'm a black woman. that could be on the list. but why isn't the word american on the list? that's the great question by rachel. honestly, that's how i identify

myself and i think you do, too, richard. i have follow you on instagram. you have a fun life. red, white and blue is everything to you. that's not on the list. why? >> yeah. >> for me i think america, everybody knows. you know i'm an american. i most definitely am an american >> harris: i'm black. now you know i'm a parent. we are talking about things that are on the c.i.a. recruitment video list but you are saying the one thing that unites us all doesn't need to be there. that seems ridiculous. >> it is ridiculous, harris. the one thing we need to focus on. the way to heal this country and keep our country stave -- safe in terms is to unify us under the banner of america and love of country. i'm telling you, this is being

undermined every single day at our schools. that is the foundation, that is where we need to start because if not, now you see the endgame. we can't recruit people based on patriotism. by the way i really don't like this -- we all want to talk about our feelings and anxiety disorder. why are they putting in a recruiting video this woman working out her anxiety and her imposter syndrome. i don't like that at all. >> there is nothing wrong with having anxiety syndrome and working for the c.i.a. >> i don't want her to work out her problems at the c.i.a. but america's problems with china and all the other problems we have in national security. not work it out through the c.i.a. we need to stop this kind of training of our kids starting in school all the way through. we should be embarrassed of the way she is talking. that's not the way c.i.a. >> there is nothing wrong with mental health and knowing that you have mental health issues.

i think there is nothing wrong with people serving our country and having mental health problems or seeking mental health therapy. that is what makes america great. you can go to work as the c.i.a. and work through your issues at americans. >> harris: and also work at america's problems with china or whatever country. that's what i'm saying. if you put it all in one video six hours long. i don't know if you would recruit anybody. they might not watch that. it's a netflix series. thank you. we're awaiting an announcement from facebook when they will reinstate donald trump's account. one senator says it's scary to see what's happening if free speech in america. plus this. >> i have already told new yorkers where i am. i did nothing wrong. and period. and i'm not resigning and i'm doing my job every day. >> harris: broken record.

>> harris: facebook oversight's board is set to announce the fate of former president donald trump's account but republicans are focused on reining in big tech's power no matter what the company decides. >> free speech in america now depends on the whims of a monopoly corporation. that's how much power these people have. by the way, we have no idea how they make their decisions, facebook and their facebook court and all of this nonsense. this is ridiculous. we ought to be able to say what we want to say within the bounds of the law of course. >> harris: susan lee has the latest for us. one day we don't ware what these companies decide because hopefully there be more competition. >> four months since president

trump has been able to post on facebook. it might change tomorrow morning. they decide trump's fate on the biggest site. it was first suspended january 7th after the capitol hill riots and indefinitely banned a few days later by mark zuckerberg himself saying keeping president trump on the platform posed risks that were too great. the decision will be crucial given that other social media sites like twitter snap and youtube have continued their trump ban and some indefinitely. facebook is the most important. 3 billion visit the social media site every day. facebook has one of the largest controls over advertising spending in the u.s. and america. for president trump returning to facebook not only means engagement with his 35 million followers but amplification of his influence in a gop party and experts say that also gives him influence and king maker status on the republican side.

big tech has been under fire not just josh hawley of missouri but governor ron desantis to fine big tech companies if they censor speech especially on the gop side. an interesting decision tomorrow morning at 9:00 a.m. eastern to see how far the extent and power the big techs have. >> harris: whether they turn you on or off on their platforms, twitter, facebook, any of them, they don't have to give you the transparency notes on who is making the decisions. not algorithms making certain things trend to the top like the racial slur against senator tim scott on twitter but people curating that material. on or off switch fine. can we get transparency and find out who is doing these things and how do they fix it? susan lee, good to see you. i want to thank you for that and get to this. the pressure is building over governor andrew cuomo's

handling of the nursing home deaths in new york. the governor is digging in his heels. >> nursing homes is being looked at by the eastern district. that was a political investigation started by donald trump. who politicized not just covid but politicized nursing homes and policies towards nursing homes and wanted to blame democratic governors like myself. i did nothing wrong and period. and i'm not resigning and i'm doing my job every day. >> harris: but the "new york post" wrote this. on top of blocking health officials from telling the truth, senior staffers also quashed a scientific paper which reported the true fatality total. give it up, governor. janice dean joins me now. what a day yesterday was when

we watched and covered on "outnumbered" suddenly the breaking news from that news conference and we heard this governor of new york compare to what people might do if they spread covid to their grandparents. kill them. we all immediately thought wait a minute, isn't he is guy who is accused of being the person who has killed a lot of grandparents? karl rove asked that question. >> he is right. i felt the same way when i was watching your program yesterday. how dare he. he should stop talking. then i thought to myself the more he talks, the more all of that can be used in a court of law against him. so you know what? keep talking, governor. keep saying foolish stuff like that. the "new york post" and even "the new york times" and the "new york daily news" now coming out with these reports saying that he actively covered up the numbers for months. and the timeline was coinciding

with the selling of his $4 million leadership book in the middle of a pandemic. >> harris: you know, this is about the governor and courts will look at this investigations, all of it. but i don't want to lose sight of those who lost people like yourself. and i know that you have talked with other families and i always whenever we have these conversations want to make sure we have a heart and head for the real toll here. and where those people are in this journey and what it must be like to watch this day in and day out saying i will never resign as if he is being put in a corner for some odd reason. it is bigger than that. >> it is bigger than that. it is like seeing your abuser on tv every day being victimized. there is so much against this governor. the impeachment process in albany i'm just so disheartened by that. i think it is a complete sham. i think they are stonewalling and stalling. he is not going anywhere.

the only way we can really get him out is probably to vote him out in 2022. but i have to say i am hopeful about the investigations that are happening right now in the nursing home issue and the tragedy, the justice department has an ongoing investigation, the federal government as well. and the f.b.i. so i have to believe we're on the side of the angels, harris. and that will prevail. >> harris: amen. good to see you, janice dean. thank you for being with us today. >> i love you. >> harris: i love you, too. if you want a deeper dive in the controversy surrounding new york's governor sign up for fox nation now to watch the collapse of cuomo. the full documentary is available to stream now on fox nation. thank you for watching "the faulkner focus", which is at the corner today at the avenue of the americas.

thought we'd stop it. "outnumbered" is next after this commercial break.
