>> there is a mask requirement inside d.c. restaurants, yet president biden and the first lady were not wearing masks while walking around a d.c. restaurant on saturday, why? >> i think what we are referring to is a photo of them walking out of a restaurant after they had eaten, masts in hand where they are not yet put them back on it, so i would say, of course there are moments when we all don't put masks back on as quickly as we should, but i don't think we should lose the forest through the trees here. >> dana: president biden not alone, check out mayor lightfoot after being mask list at a game, over half of the city's 13,000 officers could be fired if they don't get the shot. today is also the deadline for seattle's police officers to admit their vaccination status, here is the one right away from a washington trooper finding out for the last time. >> i would like to thank the

citizens of yeah, county as well as my fellow officers up in the valley, without you guys i would been very successful, and kept me safe and going with my family every night. thank you for that. i wish i could say more, but this is it. so this is the last time you will hear me in a state patrol car. and they can kiss my [bleep]. >> dana: so he is out of the building. >> jesse: did any of these politicians think about attrition, that's what's going to happen when you slap these masks mandates on people. right now in seattle they will lose 140 officers in the middle of a crime wave, historic. we have already seen retirements they are, and they are going into what they call phase for mobilization, dana, and only use this during riots, it's when every single sworn officer has to come in seven days a week, 12-hour shifts and cover each other's -- i just don't know how they will

do that after they have had just shattered a three decade murderer number last year, already on pace to top that end in kings county 80% of the drive-bys are black americans, so jenny durkan the mayor, black lives matter, don't they? you want to keep police off the streets and that type of environment? i could talk about joe biden's dinner, dana, hunter biden must have picked up the tab on this thing, because the restaurant is even too pricey for gutfeld. they have a caviar tasting for $250, then they have something i've never even heard before, and the new zealand scorpion fish for $275, eight dover sold for 115, i've never seen it over 110. and then the guy must've had a lot of cocktails last night, because he did not even show up to work today, joe biden has no public events on his schedule today. i hope it was worth it. this is why this guy is so discombobulated. he walks indoors three d.c.

restaurant with no mask, but does a zoom call by himself with a full mask on. that's why this country is so confused about covid, he is confused. and then in washington, d.c., why do they even have the mask mandate? seven-day death average in d.c. is 0. it is 0. why don't they put on a bullet proof vest mandate? more people dying from bullets and covid-19. >> i will say we have done a really good job of getting a good majority of the city vaccinated, so bravo to him aerial valor for that and i get it, i think the truth of the matter is that these mask mandates are annoying and sometimes misleading because one city has them and the neighboring city does not have them, but when you have elected leaders who are supposed to lead the people not wearing a mask, it's really hard to then tell john q. public, and to have your mask on -- >> dana: what about

lori lightfoot on that? >> richard: have a lot of problems with mayor lori lightfoot as she looks at the chicago public school system and how she is not testing the students they are, but it's worth pointing out that what is happening the police department like all the other city employees have been asked to take the vaccine, right? the educators of chicago, 90% of them are vaccinated. and they turn in their vaccine cards no problem, city employees, the same. she has also allowed that if you don't want to get the vaccine, if you do not want to turn in the vaccine card, you can test twice a week, so if you test twice a week you don't have to turn in the vaccination card. what i can't fathom is this, this is about making sure that we keep police officers safe and working. and we know an officer reported that the number one cause of death for police officers in 2021 and 2020 has been covid-19, why would you not want to keep your police officer safe which is the battle that she seems to be having. >> dana: katie, listen to mayor lori lightfoot this is what she said about police insurrection. >> police unions are not

authorized to strike, it is in their collective bargaining agreement and in state law, what we have seen from the leadership is a lot of misinformation, a lot of factories and frankly flat out lies in order to induce an insurrection. >> dana: i imagine some of the officers that don't want to get vaccinated are frustrated that she goes to the basketball game and does not have to wear a mask. >> katie: she gets to live her life with armed security while she tried to defund the police last year it gets to do that and lecturing and telling police officers that they are domestic terrorists trying to create an insurrection because they have and have a union that is standing up for the right of choice about whether they want to be vaccinated or not for whatever reason. natural immunity, they have some other kitchen -- condition, maybe they just don't want it, but when you look at politicians in general have handled this and joe biden in particular, it can seem like well, it's just a mask that he did not have when he walked out, but when you look at the videos of toddlers on

airplanes getting kicked off with her parents and screaming, when you look at kids sitting at school all day who are a little who have to wear that for eight hours, it is infuriating to watch the president in the united states do this and then the prospect saying, well, we don't really need to focus on that. there are consequences for this in d.c. and thousand dollar fines if you don't comply, if you are on amtrak and you don't have your mask on, they can kick you off the train. they can laugh about it and i would argue nobody should be wearing masks given the vaccination rate and the natural immunity, but if you force others and throw kids off with their parents that are trying to see their families, then take it away from everyone if that is the case. >> dana: for a brief moment i thought, maybe with the hypocrisy on the map, maybe they will just decide we can let it go and let it be people's choice if they want to wear a mask or not, but apparently that is not happening. >> greg: you have to separate the power from the powerless and no mask does that wonderfully. and why should lori lightfoot have to wear a mask and hide

that beautiful smile? because you know, she has so much to smile about. to hide it in my opinion is a crime. when your tongue met the kids in every thing like that, we are now in the tyranny of safety phase where i had to go get a medical procedure on friday, and endoscopy, it was required that the person driving me there and the person picking me up had to be either mandated a shot or negative covid, even if they did not enter the building. that's insane. but this is not about the practical benefits of masking, it's about how the jack asses that relish reprimanding us do not follow their own protocols, that's why they got into politics so that they could create the calls they don't want to live by. people who scoff at the lives that we follow, when the line cutters are the people who control the line, that's war. i mean, that's the let them eat cake phase of this when

summoning is telling you the rules and violating them in front of you on the smaller scale is like political politicians who start wars, but to their kids are immune from the draft, it's likely create and enforce the laws that we are then mocking and see this and it's from ted kennedy to hunter biden with his guns in his crack, political power is that safety net that keeps you from being arrested or being in trouble, especially if you're a democrat. >> jesse: how was your procedure? >> greg: it went smooth. >> dana: that's what you want. >> richard: want that to go well. >> greg: they put the camera down there, they did find your class ring, dana, dana. it >> dana: it small. okay, great, if you could pick those out for me. sanitize. that would be great. all right come up next, president biden supply chain nightmare not going away anytime soon, the alarming message from the transportation secretary is next. ♪ ♪

♪ ♪ >> jesse: the biden white house doing little to reassure the americans worried about the supply chain crisis and rampant inflation, pete buttigieg trying to spin the disaster as a result of joe biden success. >> certainly a lot of challenges we have been experiencing this year will continue into next year, but there are both short-term and long-term steps that we can take to do something about it. part of what is happening is not just the supply side, it's the demand side.

demand is up because income is up because the president has successfully guided this economy out of the teeth of a terrifying recession. >> jesse: meanwhile americans getting crushed by inflation as we head closer to the holidays. one in five americans already started their holiday shopping last month. all right, dana, we have empty shelves, high inflation, soaring gas prices, labor shortages and a migration crisis and in this country and probably any other, if you had said maybe three of those things, that's a political crisis, biden has all of them. >> dana: you come place them back with policy decisions that have consequences, so you have all of those things happening especially when you over stimulate the economy coming it's all just last week over 50% of people polled by gallup said we don't want government to get any bigger, we don't think we need any of this extra money. they realize that what happens when you have a situation where you have increased demand, not enough supply, what is going to

happen? this is exactly what is going to happen. the other thing is that mayor pete has been quite indignant, he is frustrated that people say that maybe he should of been on paternity leave, take your paternity leave, but if you take leave, that means that someday phil's improved job, and i looked it up and there is a deputy transportation secretary, her name is polly totenberg, and i don't remember seeing her out there either. all of these issues come in late because they are trying to fast things like the human infrastructure bill and they forget that all of these things are happening. >> jesse: when i took my paternity leave i was only gone for a couple of days and someone took my place here at the table. what did they call it "the four" the entire paternity? >> greg: this is a great test for government, if nobody notices the loss of services or that you are not there, maybe get rid of him? maybe you should be fired. the fact that no one in the media did a welfare check, we

have not seen the transportation secretary, are you okay? are you okay? i'm going to start using the excuse of bottle-feeding. because technically i am feeding myself, but as a person, pete is right to take off that time if it is available. but as a leader, he is an embarrassment. no leader in the time of crisis would take two months off, even professional athletes don't do that, they take off a few games here and there. but you have to come to work when there's something going on, but the chaos with this whole cargo thing, his experience is the perfect metaphor. it did not disturb his lifestyle. he is an elite who is able to take the eight weeks off, because it did not hammer him. it hammers the middle class and it's going to hammer the working class, but someday like him well educated, grabbed a great job in government, he can weather it. there's just something weird about a mayor of a city come of a city that wasn't so much trouble like cleveland that he decided instead of sticking to

the job and fixing things, he ran for president. if so that makes you smart, but it makes you a terrible leader. that's what we are finding out is that he abandoned the city, the city of twinkly lights according to joe biden. >> jesse: richard, he says our supply chain can't keep up, where did he and all of his mckinsey guys put the supply chain? in china! they can't keep up because they are halfway around the world! >> richard: he did not put it in china. >> jesse: mckenzie said to put them in china, you avoid regulations and taxes and you have to pay them less. a speaker there is nothing more than i want for all of our supply chains here in the united states. the reality and i will also grant you that i think the biden administration was slow to the mic and addressing how we deal with the supply-chain issue. it's worth pointing out that the supply-chain issue that we have are far bigger than joe biden and they are far bigger than the white house. we have a glow --

>> jesse: show biden has been in control for four decades. it >> richard: i did not interrupt you, we are dealing with the global news and dealing with last week in the united kingdom they ran out of fuel because they had the supply-chain issue happening there and the supply-chain issue have been because it started in 20001 chinese factory shut down because of covid-19, and we had boarders in china that were two months behind and then when china and their products to the united states, our ports shut down because we had covid-19 and social distancing issues, so now we are dealing with the relay race that is about 100 yards back when we are trying to catch up, so yes, you are right, though biden administration was slow to the path to say here's what we are dealing with and here's why it is happening. to like you said at the beginning of the segment we have a labor shortage that is happening with truckers and longshoremen, which is also impacting the downward pressure on what is actually happening right now, so the american people are seeing empty shelves and waiting three and four months to get their soap, their many coopers, their iphone 13,

but the result of it is a globalized problem that is a result of the fact that we just dealt with a global pandemic that affected the whole world and where we shut the light switch off of the entire global economy. >> katie: why was that, because of government policy? >> richard: because millions of americans died. >> katie: and in the role of government policy to stop production to stop production to implement restrictions that did not allow people to get back to work and held off those restrictions were far too long because of some political motives like with gavin newsom in california, back to pete buttigieg, when he was running for president, people in the primary and democratic primary were saying, he can't even fix potholes in south bend, where we going to not only elect him as president, but he's going to be joe biden's transportation secretary, pete buttigieg was on paternity leave, says he did not have time to appoint someone to take over his job, off the clock and have plenty of time to participate in a documentary and

plenty of time to do an interview with "people" magazine about his new life, so it's just a matter of prioritizing his fame and wanting to pull a fauci being on the cover of magazines versus dealing with real problems that america is having right now with the supply chain. the final thing i will say is now that the forces are back up in california, they need people to off-load what is in the port and they need drivers, that's the shortage of workers. california labor law through 85 does not allow that, we can't hire gate workers. the pro act which is in the infrastructure bill that joe biden wants to pass does the same thing on a national level. every single person you hire has to be a full-time employee with full benefits and they do that because they want the unions for political capital. so this problem is not getting fixed on a policy level anytime soon whether it's through the biden administration or through california politics either. >> jesse: i hear you saying that it's the democrats fault? >> katie: yes, very much so. >> jesse: and richard, the reason they are having fuels to

shortages in europe is because vladimir putin is playing politics. >> richard: it's because they have truckers there, global news. speak to the left going to go bonkers on joe biden about what he said about the police. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪

do your job, that's why i propose we invest again in community policing, one thing that protects cops or other cops. >> katie: that's a convenient narrative now, would've been better off last summer when this whole crime surge started. >> greg: occurring during national police week, the cnn covers it as the national week of white supremacy. thank you for joining us in the real world, but where were you went to were burning and cops were getting attacked? he cannot take the stand because it aligned himself with his trump, so he let politics replace his spine and rake retreated to his basement. billions and billions of dollars worth of damage and people dying, cops committing suicide and the only reason why he is talking about it now is because it's a political weapon to use against the weapon to

january 6th, and the inconsistency at the truth, did not give a damn about cops before january 6th, now he does. i know that i should be more diplomatic in saying that i am glad that he finally came around, but i'm so cynical at this point because he didn't do jack for so long, it actually infuriates me. and it's hard to them. dana. >> dana: i know coming out of a very, calm presence. >> greg: i'm very mad right now, very mad. >> katie: but democrats were getting destroyed when it came to the defund of police issue in the senate race in virginia house races, so is this a way to kind of change the narrative ahead of 2022? >> dana: i think in the way that one of the reasons it is cynical and frustrating coming you believe that that is the real joe biden speaking coming go back to 1994 in the crime bill and things he has had in the past for police and there is a political moment and he did

not stand up when we needed him to, so these people, will the real joe biden please stand up, if crime is in the headline, he knows that he is losing because it is something that everybody will pay attention to in the first story that will always get covered is going to be crime, so like inspector gadget, the message is self-destructing and not just on this issue, it's also happening on immigration and what happened this weekend, the biden administration says that they will return in the mexico policy that president trump has in the left-wing people on the zoom call with the biden administration walked out of the meeting. they found out this week that it's likely that the climate proposal and the big infrastructure bill are going to be pulled out as they are dejected over that. they are depressed because the biden administration will not be able to deliver on the voting rights bill they wanted to pass, all of this leading to the president may be doing something. spin on the speech from president biden over the weekend

had a lot of nice things he said, but personnel is policy when you look at doj and kristen clarke, the people who called to defend the police saying the whole system is racist, those are the ones running the show when it comes to investigations and policies on a federal level for a police department's across the country and they have not offered much in terms of backing the police in the way that the president called for. >> jesse: that's why people think he has a puppet, because he does not call his own people that have these stabs, he was anticrime in the '90s and then after floyd, he said, oh, we have systemic racism in the police departments, but we should redirect funding from the police and hidden silence in the basement, then when you see them lose the house in november because of this, he tried to talk back again, that's why no one trust him. he is not even pushed his anti-crime and police reform bills through congress. he controls both houses and are doa, police departments need strong leadership and vocal

support from the commander in chief, because they are putting their lives on the line of making split-second calls, called pursuits, foot pursuits come dealing with some of the most horrific people as greg says, people on their worst days in america, and they are just going to retire. to stick around and stay in their squad cars and not do proactive policing if they are not getting vocal support from the white house, and that's what we are seeing right now. he has to convince his party to be less anti-police if he is going to stand a shot for people to believe in. >> katie: one of the guys that puts their lives on the line are getting fired because they won't apply the vaccine mandate, what is the plan to hinder this new crime wave? what are they going to do about it? >> richard: i'm not a lawmaker, but what can be done, it's not about defunding the police, or the demand a policy of the hashtag, what we have to do is one end bad policing practices like stopping for the profiling and the excessive over policing and actually focus on how we do policing better come because what you have --

>> katie: what about the criminals? us before he is talking about the criminals. a >> richard: said nothing like that. >> greg: but you did that wish list. >> richard: excuse me. >> jesse: she asked you how you deal with crime and he went after the police. a >> richard: i'm getting there, you talk to communities of color and black communities, what they tell you is that 64% of them favors street patrols, 60% of them favor more money going through word form and training and you also have communities that say there is a fear and mistrust when it comes to police and police cannot be affected if the people who they need to be effective towards don't trust them, so what you have to do is have reform in place so that when you call 911 you are going to trust the person on the other end of the phone. and when communities don't trust who is on the other end of the phone who will show up when they call 911 we have a problem. and until we are willing to acknowledge that their problem exists, we will continue to have the circular conversation that

gets us nowhere which is where we are right now. >> katie: i don't think that we are in a circular conversation? >> richard: that's exactly where we are, republicans believe one thing, democrats believe something else. >> greg: there are so many options on the table, but the moments that you defend the police at all, then you are considered a racist. >> richard: i'm telling you that black people favor the police. >> katie: a former obama official torching the former policy failures. ♪ ♪ which leaves us to wonder, where does it go? does it get tangled up in knots? or fall victim to gravity?

>> dana: they are coming over. it's before they are all in their late 70s so you never know. >> richard: to the point that jon stewart is making, you focus on the preposition, and the stake outs at the trump tower focusing the intellect on the motorcade which is this overfocus on trump, because he had a deposition like people don't have depositions every day, is this an overfocus taking away from other things happening in the republican party? >> jesse: or the democratic party, with dana's excellent analogy. but i remember it to $30 million a year dividing this country, ridiculing republicans, dehumanizing fox news hosts for profit, i forgive them. it's just hypocritical, and now all of a sudden he comes out of her determinants has come we need to focus on holding the powerful accountable and focus on policy. okay, we got it. we have a rich doing the exact opposite, but he is right. the democratic party has merged with the powerful institutions

in this country to put a laser focus on trump and populism and not focus on themselves, do you think the cia, the fbi, fisa, hunter biden and his laptop is under any scrutiny whatsoever? no, companies don't want scrutiny, richard, the pentagon does not once guarantee, nobody wants them asking questions, they want everything focused on the threat of donald trump and populism, because in a way that threat does threaten their profits and their power. so look over here, look at that threat, don't look at what we are doing. >> richard: did you just put pfizer in hunter biden's emails and the same? >> jesse: yes, i did. it's been on every time the biden administration fails, whether it is on the border or getting covid vaccinations up, they just throw donald trump, the lazy argument because they can defend their own policy, and at the beginning and the media would run with it, but people are tired of hearing about it, there is a new president coming

is a city had lots experience to get things done and what he should be doing, instead he's blaming it on the other guy not taking responsibility for it. it's a lazy argument. >> richard: we will see if it is a lazy argument or not. "one more thing" is up next. ♪ ♪
