ways. you have a graduation book? >> dana: to go on instagram. personalize and sign your book if you want to do a graduate gift. also tonight you and i will be on gutfeld. we'll be on there together with kat timpf and guy benson. here is harris. >> harris: president biden's leadership called into question as problems keep piling up for our nation and for our allies. i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus". the list of crises is growing on president biden's watch. everything from a gasoline shortage to the crisis at the southern border, israel under terrorist attack, the challenge of getting americans to go back to work, and the pandemic still keeping some students out of the classroom across america in
8:01 am
person. the white house admitting it is facing multiple challenges. >> the president knew from having served as vice president for eight years that when you walk in and you are the leader of the free world and overseeing a country that is still working its way through a pandemic and economic recovery that you have to be prepared to juggle multiple challenges, multiple crises at one time and that's exactly what we're doing at this moment. >> harris: greg gutfeld last night made some pointed jokes about president biden's competency but ultimately the future of our country is at stake. >> progress and stability and success is just one liberal away from disaster. just one liberal away. think about that. everything great about america can be unraveled by one leftist with power. we have an administration crowing with them. >> harris: we begin with white house correspondent peter doocy.
8:02 am
>> later on this hour we are expecting to get the president's first remarks about -- first formal remarks about the colonial pipeline hack. the last two times we've seen him he spoke about infrastructure and covid vaccines for 12 to 15-year-olds in his scripted remarks. as republicans on capitol when hill try to remind him there is a lot more going on in the world. >> so we clearly have a problem right now with cybersecurity. all of us in our committees are trying to deal with it. the biden administration acts like there are no issues in anything and doing nothing about it now. >> 100 days in office joe biden hasn't been to our southern border. biden named kamala harris as in charge of the border. she has not been to the southern border once as vice president. >> my people are worried about inflation. >> the president's thinking about the latest effects of the hack causing gasoline shortages in some of the most populated states was not part of a
8:03 am
planned speech but instead when he gave a brief answer to a shouted question exiting the covid-19 vaccine event. >> president biden: what's the one thing people are concerned about with gasoline? prices going up. exactly right. >> this administration tries to set their schedule weeks or months in advance telling us they want progress on infrastructure by memorial day. small gatherings to be okay by the fourth of july. but critics on capitol hill are watching as things keep popping up at home and abroad and they are not satisfied that they are getting enough reaction in realtime. >> harris: peter doocy, thank you very much. a new opinion piece in the "new york post" with a pretty dire headline. the author wrote this president biden is flailing in the face of challenges from inflation to jobs to the border. and says that the media are giving him a pass. senator john kennedy, republican from the great state
8:04 am
of louisiana. it seems like an ostrich approach. stick your head in the ground. >> we're facing a number of challenges. we meaning america. i would emphasize not exclusively but emphasize the fact that iran to whom and to which president biden would like to see the united states of america make love is bombing the hell out of our only true friend in the middle east, israel. but of all the problems you've listed my advice to the white house is look, instead of honking on like a goose, solve them. now i'm not saying it will be easy but every one of the problems that has been mentioned has a solution. let's take borders, for example. if you are interested in securing the border, the solution is easy. go back to doing what we were
8:05 am
doing in december. i'm not sure that president biden is interested in solving the problem, though. i think one of two things are going on with respect to the border, harris. number one, he either believes in open borders or number two, the person he has put in charge of securing the border has been day drinking again. now if he believes in open borders and by his actions he does, he needs to stand up, look the american people in the eye and say i know i told you i wasn't for open borders but i lied, i am for open borders. vetting people at the border is racist. i don't think america will agree with him but maybe give him a high score for honesty. now, if the person he has got in charge of border security really is day drinking, and fire him and let's put somebody down there who understands the problem and the solution. he inherited, president biden,
8:06 am
a relatively secure border and he has broken it in a few months. >> harris: you know, senator, i know you are saying it in jest with the day drinking. the vice president of the united states is the one in charge. >> vice president harris, her solution is to throw bucket loads of taxpayer money at the northern triangle countries in central america. let me tell you why that won't work. it will be wasted and it will be stolen. none of that money will make it to the people because the governments of the central american countries, to which she would like to give the taxpayer money, are authoritarian and people that will steal. the solution to securing the border is securing the border. go back to doing what we were doing in december. >> harris: all right. the former acting director of
8:07 am
national intelligence rick grenell says someone else in the white house, senator, is calling the shots behind the scenes. let's watch and then i'll get your first reaction. >> president biden is too weak to stop the progressive left from taking over the domestic and foreign policy. kamala harris does not understand what's going on because she is not an expert on foreign policy. susan rice is really happy that biden is too weak, kamala is totally distracted with the 50/50 senate and has to be up at the senate. she is running the show. we have a shadow president in susan rice and no one is paying attention. >> harris: senator kennedy, your reaction. >> i don't know. i don't know. i just know what's going on at the white house. i know who the president is, it's president biden and he is responsible for all of this. you know, inflation, the white house is ringing its hands about inflation.
8:08 am
i don't know why it is surprised, given the breathtaking -- let me put it another way. if we discovered life on mars tomorrow, i think president biden would try to send it money. the spending is breathtaking. why do you think we have inflation? and it could destroy our recovery. >> harris: 4.2% in april. experts and analysts of the markets are saying it is explosive and it is now weighing in some ways on the markets that we're watching. >> yes, take infrastructure. i don't know how many dollars he wants to spend on infrastructure. in his infrastructure bill president biden is asking me to buy a car to get the cup holders. 95% of infrastructure bill is not infrastructure.
8:09 am
if he wants to pass a reasonable infrastructure bill we're ready. for roads and bridges and ports and sewer and water and broadband. number two, let's forget about raising the corporate income tax and sit down and have an adult discussion about ways to do that, including maybe closing some of the special interest loopholes in the corporate income tax but we don't have to raise the rate from one of the most competitive in the world to one of the least competitive. now, will that be easy? no, that's a solution to this problem. >> harris: it is so fascinating to hear you. the president has indicated he wants day two of what he saw with the top four in the house and senate yesterday in the white house with schumer, pelosi, mccarthy and mcconnell. >> he is not going to solve it with the top four. he is not going to solve it there. >> harris: will he solve it with any republican? >> no disrespect to our leadership.
8:10 am
i love senator mcconnell. he is not going the solve it with just calling the management over there. how can i put this? senators are like cats. they do what they want. and in order for us to agree to a bill, everybody is going to have to be involved. there is a way to do an infrastructure bill. we want to do one. we want to do an infrastructure bill, not something else. >> harris: all right. i want to get to this. millions of americans still facing gasoline shortages as the colonial pipeline works to get back to normal after a cyberattack. russian crime gang hackers. tensions so high that played out at a gas station in north carolina that you have to see it to believe it. >> oh [bleep].
8:11 am
>> harris: fists flying as they tear at each other's clothes and go for hurting each other. look at this. someone apparently cut the line and got this started. meanwhile the white house now is finally admitting there is actually a fuel shortage. defending its earlier language down playing the crisis. they just don't like that word maybe. >> on monday we said, monday afternoon, 48 hours ago, we said at this moment there is not a supply shortage. that was accurate at this moment. we also said we are continuing to monitor very closely what the impact will be. >> harris: senator kennedy, a lot of pressure on americans. you have been talking about the things that matter the most and that pressure coming from it doesn't seem matter to the
8:12 am
white house. people are reaching a breaking point. >> there are times, not always, but there are times i think that president biden may have a blind spot on some issues about the lives and concerns of ordinary americans. when you are trying to feed your family and educate your kids, the price of gasoline matters. i can tell you how i could solve this problem. not by spending a gazillion dollars on building 500,000 charging stations for electric cars when only a handful of americans drive them. in terms of the way the federal government can help, number one, we need to gather the facts about what happened. number two, we need to turn to the private sector and say what as a government can we do to help you harden your security in terms of these cyberattacks? number three, we can hold
8:13 am
vladimir putin responsible for this because i think he is. and number four, we could stop demonizing fossil fuels and understand that we cannot run the greatest economy in all of human history by putting fairy dust and unicorn urine in our cars. we can have carbon capture storage and utilization and we ought to be talking about that. that's not what the woke people and white house want to do. they want to get rid of all gas and it is totally unrealistic. >> harris: i tell you, we've ticked down a lot of topics that the white house is dealing with right now. the president said yesterday that he really can't take very many questions. we've heard that from him before. >> all of these problems can be solved, harris. there are solutions.
8:14 am
i'm not saying they're easy but solutions. one solution is not wringing your hands and honking like a goose. roll up your sleeves and let's get busy. >> harris: senator kennedy, always great to have you on the program. >> thanks, harris. >> harris: violence is escalating as israel is under terrorist attack from hamas. we're live at the gaza border. president biden is facing intense criticism over his response. plus the mess over mask guidance just got messier. the fully vaccinated president wearing his mask while with fully vaccinated lawmakers. so what does that mean? does he have confidence in the vaccine? who has confidence in the vaccine based on their behavior? >> i personally think there is a lot of protections around the president. why does he need lots of secret service agents and why do they belt and suspender anything
8:15 am
with the president? because he is a very important person. this is sam with usaa. do you see the tow truck? yes, thank you, that was fast. sgt. houston never expected this to happen. or that her grandpa's dog tags would be left behind. but that one call got her a tow and rental... ...paid her claim... ...and we even pulled a few strings. making it easy to make things right: that's what we're made for. usaa. what you're made of, we're made for. get a quote today.
8:17 am
usaa. what you're made of, we're made for. at t-mobile, we're on our way to hiring 10,000 veterans and military spouses by 2023. and our commitment doesn't stop there. we always offer 50% off family lines on our military and veteran plans. that's right, 50% off on america's most reliable 5g network.
8:20 am
>> harris: new warnings that an all-out war could be coming in the middle east. the state department now is sending one of its top diplomats to the region. israel is pushing ahead with its return of fire on hamas in gaza killing as many as 10 senior terrorist leaders. the hamas show no signs of backing down firing hundreds of rockets at israeli cities and forcing the nation's largest airport to shut down all incoming flights. death toll is ticking up. trey yengst live for us live on the gaza border.
8:21 am
>> today new information. israel called up 7,000 reserve troops and told combat soldiers to remain on bases. the jewish state is preparing for the possibilities of a ground operation into gaza. this as rocket fire continues. i want to show you the scene just 15 minutes ago when your show started here as more rockets were fired into israel. rounds being fired off right now by the israeli defense forces trying to intercept some incoming rocket fire just south of the city. more rounds are going off right now. as the rocket fire from gaza continues. loud explosions all along the border here. an effort by the israeli
8:22 am
military to stop this rocket fire while continuing artillery strikes along the border in the distance. yesterday you and i talked about how hamas and jihad are firing the rockets at different angles trying to get around the iron dome. a few hours after we spoke about that one of the rockets slipped past the defense system and slammed into a residential area. we were at the scene minutes after it happened. injured people coming out of the house. >> first responders just arrived at this house that took a direct hit from a rocket. no one was severely injured in the strike but there are concerns these types of barrages will continue and israel will face further conflict from factions inside gaza. you can see there are some injuries here. sir, what happened? >> well, the -- it was a rocket. i live next door.
8:23 am
i was hiding crouched down in my area and i heard this explosion and glass started tingling before and i ran out and i saw there was a family and some kids and huge fires. >> on the other side of the border gazan high rises are being leveled by the iz sraeli air force. four hamas and i tank units were taken out. the infrastructure damage will take years to recover from. some have military offices in them. civilians live nearby. thousands of people are homeless as a result inside gaza. egyptian delegation is in tel aviv meeting with the israelis trying to iron out the details of a cease-fire agreement. fighting is expected to continue. harris. >> harris: thank you very much, trey yengst. here is what the president said
8:24 am
yesterday with pressure building on him to make some kind of response to the violence. >> president biden: israel has a right to defend itself when you have thousands of rockets flying into your territory. i had a conversation for a while with the prime minister of israel and i think that -- my hope is that we'll see this come to conclusion sooner rather than later. >> harris: you will notice the president there did not directly condemn hamas. critics say his support of israel has been lukewarm at best so far. national review publishing an editorial with the headline biden has emboldened israel's enemies. joey jones is a retired marine bomb technician host of fox nation outdoors and fox news continues. good to see you today, my friend. a dire situation. we do know that the president said those words yesterday. we do know that the deputy
8:25 am
assistant secretary of state for israel and palestinian affairs left late yesterday to go to the region. what needs to happen here? >> first i think americans need to understand what is happening with the iron dome is something we should all be in awe of. the amazing ability to shoot hundreds of rockets, dozens at a time out of the sky. the reason why there are 80 deaths in gaza and only 7 in israel is not because hamas hasn't tried to kill many more israelis but because israel has a defense system. a sovereign country with the most impressive defense system in the world. israel is a country that stove off three adversaries in a handful of days. this fight is much more difficult. when you are fighting a terrorist organization interwoven among innocent civilians and try to do the right thing it leads to a 20-year war where you can't call victory. israel is seeing that now with
8:26 am
hamas. when you think about the amount of casualties, the only reason there aren't thousands of israelis dead is because of the iron dome. to say that israel is morally wrong for defending itself like aoc is trying to say or equally morally wrong baffles me as someone who fought two wars like this. >> harris: i know you have. and talk to me about the strategy moving forward because israel has said in statements earlier this week that they are not just going to agree immediately to a cease-fire. first of all, they don't always hold the way the world would expect them to dawes hamas is a terrorist organization. and it is backed by a terrorist state, iran. >> cease-fire for a terrorist organization is a reset opportunity. there are two things at play here. the internal issue between israel and hamas and then all
8:27 am
the world aspect involved including the u.s., iran. you can't server the actions of the biden administration or the trump administration from what and why it's happening now. taking a position even on the israel or palestinian conflict or two-state solutions. those are two different things. you don't have to fully support what israel is doing in settlements to understand it is an ally and has to defend itself attacked by hundreds and thousands of rockets on its civilians. go ahead. >> harris: just quickly former ambassador to the u.n. nikki haley was on with me this week and she said they are testing. hamas is testing president biden. quickly and we'll move to the next thing. what is your thought on that? >> well, when you send them money and you tell iran we'll lighten up and try to get in a deal. where did the rockets come from?
8:28 am
they weren't produced in gaza, right? a lot of actors at play here we're bringing troops home, i guess. we don't need any more bases over there and in the meantime israel gets rocketed every day. large issues i would like my president to be focused on and understand how they are connected and talk to the american people about what he is trying to do other than win a campaign slogan. >> harris: listen to the president is what you would like to be able to do after he has answered some questions. here is another thing he might want to answer to. on the border crisis, arizona's attorney general is calling to remove vice president kamala harris from her job of leading diplomatic efforts to stop the people coming across the border illegally. >> she needs to come here and understand the underlying issues and how it is affecting the ranchers and farmers in southern arizona and affecting communities. throughout the country. this is a huge problem on so many levels. she has done nothing and why
8:29 am
she shouldn't be border czar. she needs to be held accountable and biden administration needs the appoint someone that is serious about addressing this crisis. >> harris: joey jones. >> bill: as a leader what does kamala harris lose by visiting the border? what does that hurt? what does that do in her life or ability to do her job? what are the negatives of visiting the border? that's the question i would like ask. why are you averse to visiting the border? you may make an argument it doesn't help you do your jobs but it helps those struggling every day of their lives to keep ahold of this mess. helps them believes you care, are interested, have an idea what's going on or even maybe you might believe in a secure border. and similarly for the past 20 years i'll ask democrats what do you lose by building a border wall? how does it hurt? when you build a border wall what do you loose?
8:30 am
after you build it do you get the opportunity for amnesty. call the bluff a little here. if they are saying the border is a mess and part of the reason it's a mess because you haven't visited, spend a day to go visit. you can't find a day to go visit the border so the governors and border patrol officers and state and local law enforcement officers that are literally risking their lives every day can at least know their leader believes in them? i learned something about leadership. it ends with leading and starts with consistency. we aren't seeing leading. we see talking points. rder and you can visit that today. >> harris: we know some in her party including kamala harris must believe in it a little bit because there is a wall in her
8:31 am
state. taking aim as someone used to mimic. a picture of henry winkler has the woke people in an uproar. >> i'm not supposed to be answering all those questions. >> harris: the president admitting he is breaking his team's rules when he goes off script to answer reporter's questions. is this what we can expect going forward as he deals with all those crises that we've been talking about all hour at home and abroad? we can scroll the list. will cain is in "the faulkner focus" next. veteran homeowners, this is the best time in history to turn your home equity into cash. because home values have climbed to all time highs. and so has your equity. turn it into cash now, while mortgage rates are near all time lows. the newday 100 va cash out loan lets you borrow up to 100% of your home's value.

8:37 am
questions. >> president biden: you guys are bad. i'm not supposed to be answering all these questions. i'm supposed the leave. i can't resist your questions. >> harris: but he does resist. this isn't the first time he has made comments like that. the president shut down reporters' questions last month and his own communications team outright admitted it. >> president biden: i'm sorry, this is the last question i'll take. i'll be in trouble. >> that is not something we recommend. in fact a lot of times we say don't take questions. he will do what he wants to do. see the president of the united states. >> harris: will cain. why isn't it something he should do? what is she talking about? >> i have no idea. i want to know who is putting up these boundaries. who is setting these limitations and who is making the rules? who is telling the president he can't talk? he kind of leans into this and likes the idea of i'm a rebel,
8:38 am
you can't contain me. he is being contained. the real question is, who is pulling the strings? who is telling him you cannot talk? you cannot take questions. we continue want you telling the truth or maybe, you know, going off an a tangent. who knows where the president will go. he is a little rebel and rogue but who is trying to rein him in? we deserve truth. there is a cascading amount of crises in this country that deserve our attention from inflation to gas shortages to cdc guidance to our border controversy, israel, we need to hear from the president. where is our leadership? >> harris: well, and you know, here is a quick follow on that and we'll move on. it isn't a matter that we don't see him. that's not the case. the case is that when reporters do see him and they do get a question or two, he
8:39 am
acknowledges that he is in trouble. i don't know if he is in trouble because he doesn't know the answers or if he is in trouble with someone that you point out. who would the president of the united states listen to and be put in the corner over something? >> i think it's the latter. it is not because he doesn't understand or know how to answer those questions. somebody is telling him ahead of time don't take questions. we heard you from jen psaki. he is being advised if not told. he makes it seem like a rule. you shouldn't stay and can't do this. you need to get out of there as soon as possible. so then the only operative question is who? who is making the rules? is it jen psaki. ? >> harris: who has that kind of power. >> right. >> harris: we've already seen the management with this president by his team on the words he uses. you are not allowed to say crisis, you are really not. they'll contradict you. you can't go ahead of the cdc and say what you want to say
8:40 am
about opening schools and how much you listen to the teachers unions. can't do that. cdc says those teachers don't need vaccinations to go back to school. this list is long, will. >> you are touching on something very important and everyone at home should pay attention to. the manipulation of language. what wonder he can and cannot use. look at what has been done to language over the past three months to accomplish a political agenda. infrastructure is a word tortured beyond any definition. just this last week miriam webster redefined anti-vaccine. we've seen court packing stretch and torn and racism is meaningful. they term everything as an academic. they can hook it into the pandemic that we've suffered the past year. language is the biggest political tool of the left and something to play very close attention to. >> harris: the hinge point as you say right back to
8:41 am
something, a core thing we're all very familiar with like a pandemic. meanwhile, will, president biden keeps on sending mixed signals about wearing masks. yesterday he said he expects the cdc to start easing up on indoor restrictions. >> president biden: i think you are going to see a more aggressive effort on our part to lay out that once vaccinated it is not only you can hug your grandchildren you can do a lot more. whether or not you have to have even at some point soon masks inside versus outside. i mean, so if anything we've been -- we've gone a little slower to make sure we're exactly right. it would increase the prospects of the desire to get vaccinated. >> harris: i sometimes wonder if any of those people are talking to each other. dr. fauci said there is no --
8:42 am
if you are vaccinated you don't need a mask outside. a "washington post" journalist pointed out this just before those remarks by biden. he wore his mask when meeting with lawmakers who are all vaccinated. one of the president's covid advisor was pressed on that messaging this morning. >> i personally think there is a lot of protections around the president. why does he needs lots of secret service agents and why do they belt and suspender everything with the president? he is a very important president. you shouldn't just take your mark by the oval office. most people indoors around other people vaccinated cdc says it's okay. listen to the cdc on that. >> harris: will. >> here is the thing. the american people could understandably be confused whether or not they should or should not. they aren't confused. once you get outside the bubble of america's largest cities run by democratic mayors and governments people are
8:43 am
operating fairly normally and being guided by common sense. more so common sense than the cdc. the cdc has been six feet, three feet, mask outdoors, mask indoors, no mask outdoors. they have been all over the place. now they get to the point talking about vaccine hesitancy and no herd immunity telling us 12 to 15-year-olds need to be vaccinated. what is happening with americans. they are taking their cues from people like the president who doesn't alter his behavior despite being vaccinated. what's the point? we need don't republican governors like mike dewine giving away lotto money to bribe people. we need our leaders showing us it leads you back to normal. our bureaucracies from the president of the united states to the cdc this has been a horrible, horrible example set and message sent for going on close to a year when it comes to the cdc. >> harris: so when you hear that official saying he is a

very important person there are a lot of very important people who also believe that well here, let me read it. dr. fauci on cbs. if you were vaccinated and outside put aside your mask. you don't have to wear it. top epidemiologist next to the president. >> we might want to get accurate information about how our family and friends should be behaving through this pandemic. >> harris: will cain, thank you very much. good to see you. next a familiar face announcing the end of her long run on daytime television. still insisting none of the controversy on her show was ever her fault. kat timpf is here on the ellen drama. >> did you feel like you were being canceled? >> i really didn't understand it. i still don't understand it. it was too orchestrated.

8:51 am
that would even point to that. >> did you feel like you were being canceled? >> i really didn't understand it. i still don't understand it. it was too orchestrated and coordinated. >> harris: kat timpf, good to see you. what took place here? >> what's at play this happened last year. she had to come for one year to save face. nobody shops the show on the 19th season when you are close to the 20th. and the whole idea that she just wants something new to challenge her makes even less sense considering as you mentioned the ratings have tanked for this show. so it seems that this is the challenge, right? she could set herself up to the challenge of getting her ratings back up. it is never good when they tank especially in a pandemic when everybody is at home more than ever following these allegations. it is because of this and she

is not saying that. she tried to come for one more year to save face but too challenging for her to get the ratings up after this is the real problem. >> harris: she is looking at how they came for her and how it happened. you know, sometimes i've read that if you can't figure it out maybe it's you -- not you, her. we'll move on. >> yeah, have you can't find the problem, sometimes you look in the mirror. >> harris: it does hurt just thinking about it. though. cancel culture may be coming for the fonz. actor henry winkler taking heat after he tweeted a photo of a recent catch on a fishing trip with this caption. i can't even express the beauty everywhere on our planet. look how happy he looks. that drew fire. oh, look at the grown man tormenting an animal for the fun of it. now you'll double down with nonsense about them not feeling pain or being able to live with

torn mouths #animal cruelty. kat timpf. >> i looked at the tweet on thread far from the only one. there was a lot of people who were very upset that the man had gone fishing. i see the picture, i think it's adorable. he looks happy. i have many fond memories of going fishing when i was a kid with family and i think that that's not unique. i don't think it's a unique experience for me that i've been fishing. i think that i would dare to say most people in this country have been fishing at least once or twice. such a normal, happy thing. and what's not normal is going on the internet and setting out that you will find something to be upset about and call someone out for it for just trying to live their life. >> harris: preach it. the outrage life dedication that people are into. >> true. >> harris: we've been talking about the crises the white house is facing and it is

serious. the lack of labor is really hitting companies. some of which people know and love. chick-fil-a has to limit customers to one sauce per serving citing supply chain disruptions. they can't hire enough people. >> this is something that businesses around the country are facing because people are making more money off unemployment than they are working. and, of course, this is not an issue of free money. i hear people talk about it as free money. it is not there for people just to take it because it comes from someone else who is working. it's to be there for people who need it and not get paid more than they would working at one of these jobs where you can work your way up or do other things. for years i worked as a waitress and cashier at different restaurants. you don't make a lot. if it would have been easier for me to sit home and do nothing that wouldn't have been good for me and there will be

consequences. running out of sauce, restaurants can't find people to work at them. the economy needs people to work. >> harris: let's pause for the sauce. what is your favorite? >> honey mustard. >> harris: garden ranch is my favorite and the good old school chick-fil-a sauce, too.
