show is that is the sworn enemy of of lying, pomposity, smugness and group think. see you monday. ♪ ♪ >> sean: welcome to "hannity" friday night. a lot of news tonight. it's official the leadership in the gop is brand new. minority leader kevin mccarthy and house whip steve scalise. oufor the republicans brand new chair of the republican conference. that's new york congresswoman elise stefanik and she will join us.

the new cdc guidelines on masking. andrew cuomo wants new yorkers to wear their masks forever as does nancy pelosi. and bill de blasio has a big new vaccine plan that involves french fries. may be if he throws in a big gulp, he is onto something. joe biden screamed masks or vaccine into the camera. it's been an awful week for the biden presidency. this weeks caps disastrous democratic party rule. it's not going well. inflation through the roof. unemployment on the rise. gas shortages in over a dozen states and turmoil in the middle east. joe is clueless on what to do. in the months and years coming

while the republican party has what is a new opportunity to change this trajectory for future generations. it's important. right now in the minority, the gop must fight tooth and nail. the first job is to stop the democrats huge massive, unprecedented power grab. court packing can't happen. ending the legislative filibuster must never happen. statehood puerto rico can't happen and hr1 has to be stopped. the unconstitutional legislation would give democrats control of all elections and outlaw any kind of voter i.d. at all. they don't want any., if any of these measures pass, there will be no more republican party. do you understand? no more opposition at least as

far as the eye can see. one party rule forever and ever. and america the great republic it will be over. let's be clear. the republican party cannot just be against the liberal socialist green new deal democrats. liz cheney can help the socialists all they want but they are out of touch with the base of the republican party. if they want to help socialist appeaser joe biden and company they can do so. they will contribute to hurting the country which they are already are. that's what the never trump movement is about. now it's time for republicans to go on offense and to pivot. that means all schools needs to be open. kids back in the classroom in person learning. lift all of the covid restrictions on everything so businesses and restaurants and

sporting events can open up again. they need to end the unemployment benefits that are disincentivizing workers and lower taxes for every american and communicate daily. the republican party must articulate it's make america great again. this has to be about we the american people. your sacred rights, god given rights. freedom is sacred.. it's rare and sacred. so is our safety and security. the message is simple. the republican party must stand united toes secure borders. for energy independence, lower taxes. less burdensome regulation and

free market solutions to healthcare. every child should have an opportunity to go to a school that actually works. choice in school. free and fair trade. law and order. peace through strength. every town and every american can't pursue happiness if they don't have safety and security where they live. what republicans can't do is follow joe biden's lead and appease hostile regimes likey iran that are attacking our greatest ally and sowing unrest throughout the world. russia hacked our pipeline. we can't apiece china. this unholy alliance with china and russia to provide arms to iran, that has to stop. at home law and order must be restored in every town and city. the gop must advocate for a well

funded police department in every town, city, every county. no morery rioting. no more arson. the integrity of our election visit to be a top priority. americans must have the ability to trust the process and have confidence in the results withth free and fair elections. that means that every state legislature needs to be pressured to have voter i.d. and signature verification. we need to watch chain of custody to keep integrity in the ballots counting process. you should have observers from the democratic and republican parties to make sure nobody has any opportunity to tamper with ballots.

also, every election year, you should have updated voter rolls. it should happen every year. this has to happen. it's simple. if the republican party promotes that agenda of freedom, law and order and security, and they take back the house and senate in 2022, they will stop this bit power grab right in its tracks and hopefully we will starting talking about the white house in 2024. it needs to start with congress. it needs to start with state legislatures. joining us now with more republican whip steve scalise, kevin mccarthy and the newest leader of the republicans in the house elise stefanik. i don't care about liz cheney. she decided she knew better than

the rest of the caucus. i will give you, kevin mccarthy, your thoughts on why it was that the entire caucus wanted her out. >> well, remember, we serve at the pleasure of the conference. what the conference was looking for is what you talked about. how do we secure the border? stop the socialism? save our nation? this is not where we were 18 months ago. this was back during the jimmy carter time. let's look forward. i am excited about elise stefanik coming into the leadership team. joe biden is not just ignoring the problems, he is igniting them. this inflation that hit us we have nots seen in 2 decades. that's a tax increase on every american. that's whaty our agenda is. we will fight on the floor to stop the agenda that pelosi and the socialists are trying to bring forward.er

>> sean: we could take out a betting line on raising ethical challenges of her father as it relates to her work with haliburton. those are the people now praising her. the ones who called her father a war criminal, cited issue. congresswoman, the acu had you at a lower conservative rating than liz cheney. the agenda to make america great agenda, do you disagree with any of the items i think republicans should focus on? >> i agree with all of the items you laid out. voters across the country agree. we are experiencing multiple

crises under president biden and speaker pelosi. republicans will fight on behalf of the american families who are concerned about the radical direction this administration is taking us. i am a strong conservative republican that will work to unite our republican conferencen and stand up for the american people. >> sean: steve scalise, i watchedd what is happening. i am very concerned. we saw this hack on america's energy sector. we know ransom was paid. we see inflation the highest in 12 years. 4.2%. we have 10 million jobs available. americans getting paid more

money from the government to stay home. how do we get out of this mess? we have to help israel. >> that's why it's so important to have a united front and stand up against this radical agenda. joe biden's failure of leadership is on full display and hurting american families. he cancelled the pipeline killing thousands of jobs. in the southeast the atlantic seaboard they are waiting in lines to get gasolineed and payg $6 a gallon. joe biden emboldened opec and allowed russia to brick oil into the united states. we produced our own under president trump. what is going on in israel is a clear example this president is being tested and failed to rise to the occasion. you have to stand with our allies. israel has a right to defend themselves. you have leaders in congress

criticizing israel. he is not standing up to them. he is killing jobs want inflation through the roof. look at the lumber prices. anything at the store is up and joe biden is paying people not to work when 10 million people and small businesses can't run their businesses. you wait months to get an appliance. joe biden's leadership is absent when we need it. >> sean: kevin mccarthy, your hands are tied more than mitch mcconnell.sp it's a 50-50 split. the legislative filibuster if they want to remove it, they would need one republican to make that happen. the republicans if they stay united they don't have to provide a quorum.

you are only 5 seats away from a majority. >> only 5 seats away but that's true. if you are worried about the filibuster, change the house. in the republicans control the house you will never worry about the filibuster. hr 1 won't get there i was in the oval office this week with the president and other leaders. i asked if we would pay for the ransom ware. i asked him about the border. he said he inherited a worse problem which is not true. hundred and 74,000 in april. >> sean: did you tell him that? >> yes. i told him my biggest fear is inflation. he has trillion dollars from government. every economist will tell you iowhat he is doing is wrong. he is rewarding people for staying home. he tried to move to say, i signed an executive order. i said to, you need to get out of the white house and i said go see the small businesses i talk to and understand the problem of what

is happening. >> sean: let me ask your observations. i see joe as out of it, a little checked out. i am concerned that i am not the onlyy one that sees it. everybody i talk to says they see it. i saw the picture. you had your masks on. now you don't have to wear the masks. we will see next time. >> you know why they changed noe wearing the mask? it was $7 in the gas line and they wanted to change the news. we could have stopped wearing our masks long ago dominic ago. i believe in the vaccine. i don't need a mask. get back to health and back to normal. that's the only thing we should focus on. >> sean: what observations did you see as it relates to the president? engaged.er a high level of energy. donald trump and joe biden what

is the difference? >> this is the first time i have seen joe biden as president. i saw him on inaugural at the state of the union address. he was with it. he was engaging and giving me numbers and talking. butan at no time having known je biden for sometime does he have the energy of donald trump. donald trump doesn't need to sleep 5 hours and he would be engaged.sn if you called donald trump he would bring other people down. in the first week he had a bipartisan meeting inside the white house. this was the first time they had any bipartisan meeting. think of the crises that are happening. they are igniting them. >> sean: congresswoman, in this new position what is the most important role you will play knowingg that you have a few people out there that didn't

want you if that position? adam kissinger. you had a challenge from chip roy. how dodo you ally the fears of people who don't know where you stand on issues? >> well, i represent a districtk that voted for president obama twice and voted for president trump.es it tells the story of the republican party. we have grown this party among working class americans.e people 2 work hard every day and know that the radical agenda of the social democrats is take us in thege long direction. the role of the conference chair is to share our unified conservative message. exposing these crises that american people are suffering from. the border and economic crisis and the national security crisis in the middle east.re we are focussed on reopening our economy.

reopening our schools and fighting for the hard working american people left behind by president biden and speaker pelosi. it is telling that president biden spends more time in the white house than across america. whenener i visit small businessn my district, they have jobs available but can't hire people to fill those jobs because the democrats want an incentive not to work. we want to get people back to work and back to school. this agenda works across america in new york, texas, louisiana, or comfortable. -- california. >> sean: steve scalise, a little off topic. i think is important. i noticed this week that the fbi director did not declare the shooting in the ballfield where you nearly lost your life, and that's a fact, won't say it's an act of domestic terrorism but there are efforts to classify these groups as domestic terrorists. what is your reaction? >> my college raise thursday with the new fbi director. and he acknowledged this is something he wants to look intos

mccabe was the director when they came by with the classification of suicide by cop. we have a chance of getting this changed. get the classification right. the two police officers were both shot and they were plain clothed officers. he tried to kill them. we asked who was behind this decision and why did they make that originals classification of suicide by cop. which it's not. >> sean: america needs an opposition party. >> we are fighting for freedom.

thank you, sean. when we come back, covid causing strange behavior from liberals? you won't believe this tape wer have of biden and bill de blasio. dr. marty makary is with this and tammy bruce straight ahead. stay with us.

switching gears, reports of unaccompanied migrant children left on a bus sparking outrage. health and human secretary calling the situation "totally unacceptable." one teenage boy said he was held on a buzz outside of dallas convention center four days. he claims three other children were being held and the secretary said the investigation is already underway. i'm ashley strohmier. back to "hannity." >> sean: joe biden decided to follow the science and endorse the cdc's guidance that masks are not necessary for individual whose received the vaccine in almost all circumstances. that didn't stop him from releasing this bizarre 5 second video on twitter. >> it's vax or mask. >> it's vax or mask. >> sean: that was not the strangest video about the new york.

checked out new york city mayor bill de blasio announcing you get a free burger and french fries if you have a covid vaccine card. can they throw in a big gulp? take a look. >> did you say free phrase when you get vaccinated. >> some people love hamburgers and some don't. think of this when you think of vaccination. hmmm. vaccinations. i am getting a very good feeling about vaccinations at this moment. >> sean: you have to be kidding me? not to be out done new york governor andrew cuomo thinks he is smarter than everyone at the cdc.on he is not ready to lift his state's mask mandate.

nor is nancy pelosi until everyone is vaccinated. it's none of her business. i believe if medical privacy. i thought, nancy, you democrats say the government has no right to tell people what they can and cannot dora with their bodies ad the right to privacy. medical privacy. bill mayer is feeling fine after testing positive after being vaccinated and 8 new york yankees team members tested positive despite being fully vaccinated. we looked into it. the cdc numbers 50% of americans have one dose of the vaccine. the u.s. average fewer than 40,000 cases last week. tammy bruce and a doctor is with us.

dr. marty makary. doctor, we will start with you. i looked at the cdc numbers. it's almost 9300 vaccinated people confirmed that got the virus after the vaccination. of that number, 132 people have died. what do you make of that? what do you say to the vaccine hesitant groups that are out there? >> well our battle is not against positivity in asymptomatic people. our battle is against hospitalizations. we need to put things in perspective. you don't want to segregate populations. we have 8 out of 10 adults right now with some immunity. 6 of 10 vaccinated immunity and

half on vaccinated with immunity. it's better to mix them in with a high rate of population 'simmunity. >> sean: i am trying to understand andrew cuomo and nancy pelosi. tammy, you know the left well. you were the president for the national organization of women in california. >> don't remind me. >> sean: we know. sorry about that. the argument was government doesn't have any right to tell a woman what they can and can't do with their body. the right to privacy among liberals was sacrosanct. what about the right to choose? >> that's why the lies and the theater from the left today is not new. they have always done that. it's about in manipulating people. but the fact of the matter is --

and this is what i found when i was on the left. but it's a fraud. people are attracted to it because they think personal privacy is important. living our lives as we see fit is important. yet what they find on the left it's the opposite. it's the conservative ideal. which is now why you can recognize that and you move over to the right. and that's why the left spends all of its time, sean, demonizing the right because they know that's where the average american wants to be because of the issue of privacy. this was key in the last election. with the red below outcome of below the top with how many americans came out to vote. 75 million for trump. it is because they remembered what the american ideal was and what it felt like. thisis is a good example. even in deep blue new york what cuomo is doing, this high handed control of segregating, and it's racist.

we have a history of a nation we must grow out of. for the democrat governor of new york to move to segregation regarding vaccine status for massive outdoor events. you go to a separate counter. you can only social people like you because you didn't behave. this is not what the american dream is. this is what democrats across the board have stooped to from biden to cuomo to local democrats. everybody, americans have to realize, every vote they cast now and every phone call they make is for their families and not for a political party. >> sean: we know the efficacy of pfizer and moderna and j&j. they are not 100%.

8 yankees and bill mayer fully vaccinated and contracting the virus. i imagine some people will get anxious. your response if a patient calls you. what would you say? >> well, when people have note symptoms the immune system is working from the vaccine. the virus is going to the mucousal surface of the nose and the immune system is fighting off the infection. just because a test lights up as positive and you have no symptoms, that's not our battle. there has never been a documented case of someone who tested positive after being vaccinated transmitting it. >> sean: the economy on the downward spiral. stay with us.

biden economy with a downward spiral and mornings with maria bartiromo straight ahead. and also highlights of bidens disastrous economic start. stay with us.

>> ♪ ♪ >> sean: despite inflation >> sean: despite inflation surging, joe biden and the new extreme new deal socialist democrats double down on trillion dollars spending plans to turn their fantasies into your night player reality. inflation is another tax on you the american people. you pay more for food and the cost of building and transportation costs. all going up. the consumer price index jumped 4.2% compared to april 1 years ago.

combine that with a weak jobs report and some americans are being paid more money to stay home than go back to work. a lot of republican governors don't want the extra unemployment money. you have at makings of a carter-like economy under the mess of joe biden. here is the host of mornings maria. maria-bartiromo it's hard to book you. i am looking at inflation. i am looking at the gas shut down. prior to that gas prices are going up.

my question: joe biden has been saying americans if you make over $400,000 a year you won't pay taxes. isn't all of this a tax on everybody? every consumer good, we will be paying higher prices for everything we consume. am i wrong? >> no, sean, you are not wrong. it's great to be with you tonight. you are spot on. we are looking at inflation on so many products. take the price of lumber. it's up 77%. the price of corn up 50%. inflation is too many dollars chasing too few goods. that lifts prices and that's what we are seeing. probably the best move for joe biden would have been to just stay out of the way. leave the economy as it given the fact that the federal

reserve kept interest rates at rock bottomts levels. president trump put in a tax cuts plan and this moved the needle on economic growth. we have expectations for the economy in 2021. a growth of 9%. all president biden needed to do was not mess that up. get out of the way. instead he is throwing a lot of money at the economy. creating inflation and you are seeing because of this lockdown that continues to persist, people don't want to go to work. 16 states have said we don't want this $300 additional unemployment benefits. we need to start normalizing. i am looking at all of these policies and i am having a really hard time finding any policy out of this administration that has been good for the american people.

look at the border. look at the amount of narcotics coming across the border and the 100,000 plus got aways. we don't know who they are. the pipeline. which washe the last time you expected to see gas lines? look at washington, d.c. more than 60% of gas stations out of gas last night. things will come back because of a ransom that was paid. you have have the pipeline and the border and the u.s. talking about getting back into the iran deal. no wonder we are seeing rockets fly towards israel again. president trump handed the biden administration peace in the middle east. it's extraordinary what occurred if just 114 days so far. >> sean: that's an amazing summary. the price of energy alone.

let's look at that. it's been going higher. h people need to understand. everything you buy at home depot, a trucker brought that in for you. everything you buy at the grocery store or drug store or liquor store, we will pay more for everything here. the trucking company won't make less per mile. truckers will want more money not less money. now this impacts every american. americans don't want to go back to work because they are making more money. i don't see a light at the end of the tunnel where joe says, okay, it's time to get back to work and open up. every business will continue to

struggle. >> you are right. one reason we don't see light at the end of the tunnel is because there is no acknowledgement of the impact of these policies. we are seeing prices for goods and things we put on our kitchen table go higher across the board. that's another tax, it doesn't end there. you look at a corporate tax rate going from 21% to 28%. companies will move.th they will acquire other companies and put their headquarters in another countries like they did under the obama administration. under the obama administration, ireland had -- a number of mergers companies move to ireland. , capital gain taxes 20% to 43.4%. it's not hard to figure out what will happen with that. the stock market will selloff.

$400,000 being the bottom. we are trying to get clarity out of the biden administration, is that per individual or family. it's per family. i understand that is per family. that takes you down to $200,000 the people who get taxed. >> sean: last thing, corporations don't pay taxes. they are not going to make less. joe wants more of our money. no, they will pass that tax on to the consumers as well. great to see you. maria-bartiromo will interview elise stefanik on sunday morning. 10:00 a.m. this is only sunday show i'm watching. send a the futures with maria. i never miss it. a big update to exclusive

the problem has grown just in the last 2 months. we put a light on. this but this is why you don't defund the police. this is why you don't stop funding border security. there is a direct result of both of those things. it got out of control. we are hoping that the attorney general plays attention and the local sheriff is helping us get more attention on this. we need to support him. >> sean: california is experiencing drought for farmers. taking about 10 millions of water daily. it's bigger than that. this is one part of it. they are just growing their illegal crops in the u.s. using our electricity and our water.
