bail reform. this is important because progressives do have influence over the democratic party. if she gets her way, what happens to the country? >> it is beyond belief what is going on. these elected officials should be arrested for negligence. they are responsible for caring more about the criminals than the civilians, you and me and everyone else. people being arrested again and again back into the streets. what does that do to law enforcement and the rest of us, they are pathetic. it is shameful, it is disgusting what is going on. people committing crimes again and again, 50 pages of records of crimes committed before the individual in wisconsin, $5 million bail, those people

who were murdered by this individual, you know who is responsible? the da should be arrested for what happened. carley: we have a quote from milwaukee district attorney john kesselman who said in 2007, is there going to be an individual i put in a treatment program who is going to go out and kill somebody? you bet, he says, guaranteed, it is guaranteed to happen. it does not invalidate the overall approach. i think it does invalidate the overall approach in this guy having the audacity to say we need to look into and investigate why the waukesha massacre suspect was released on $1,000 was look at your own policies. he stated quite clearly there. >> these radical democrats are

just pathetic in their behavior. it is beyond comprehension what these individuals are doing. they are murderers. i'm sorry to say this but i wish someone in his family was victimized by criminals. i wonder if they would have the same attitude about letting these criminals out into the streets - carley: the deck you are trying to make and i hear you is everybody should be protected which is why it is so notable when members of the squad come out and advocate for defunding the police and then we find out they have their own private security which they are entitled to have their own private security because nobody wants anybody to get hurt but everybody should be afforded the same level of protection.

>> it is unbelievable hypocrisy absolutely. what about me? what about you? what about everybody else? these criminals who walk the streets who have been charged with crime after crime after crime, they care about the criminals. what about the rest of society? what about law-abiding citizens who are following the law? we are being victimized, shame on them. >> you are democrat and you don't agree with this progressive push when it comes to criminal justice reform. what do you think the logic is among progressives in your party that feel like they are doing the right thing and feel they are doing a morally just thing, what is it about this that makes them feel that way? >> i don't know what makes them feel that way, they have pity for the bad guys in society. i understand that but the rest of us are suffering as a result.

why doesn't rashida tlaib and lobar. i start with the next using to view, she wants to free all federal prisoners in 10 years. she was smirking, laughing. it was a pathetic moment. i am a democrat but very disappointed, the democratic party is literally committing suicide by following people like rashida tlaib, omar and the liberal das in different parts of the country who care more about the criminals, they care more about the criminals than you and me and the rest of society. this must stop. carley: it is so backwards and you see it when you look at the spike in the crime in new york city in cities across the country, completely understand your outrage.

allowed the withdrawal to happen the way happened. i got us down to 2500 soldiers and we were totally secure. they were not touching us. i told them you can't do it, i don't go into great detail but they knew they better not mess around and we were going to get american citizens out first and others the deserve to come out not like they did taking hundreds of thousands of people out of afghanistan, have no idea who they are. >> 13 us service others lost their lives during the final days of the us exit. todd: despite record shattering illegal immigration and botched withdrawal in afghanistan it was last year president biden touted his national security team as top-notch. >> america is back, ready to lead the world, not retreat from it, ready to confront adversaries and not reject our allies, stand up for our values.

>> florida congressional candidate jointly with his take. happy thanksgiving. has in the biden team done exactly the opposite of what he said he was going to do in that soundbite? >> america is not back. the states are back. this is because of people like secretary mayorkas who has allowed millions of illegal aliens to come across who are cartels committing human trafficking, hundreds of thousands of lives in america lost because of the opioid crisis flowing through our borders, the afghan debacle, i was in afghanistan during the withdrawal with 13 us service members who were killed, trying to help americans. the first successful overland rescue of a mother and her children from texas, texas native left behind but this is

far, adversaries thriving, one of the great existential threats thriving. iran enriching its nuclear capabilities with 60% measures in the south china sea. a national security humanitarian, the biden administration has done nothing to stop that. >> members of the national security team, familiar names, merrick garland, anthony blinken, lloyd austin, kenneth mckenzie. were these bad choices or were they following bad biden policies and making them not successful. >> these were supposed to be individuals advising the president on security measures. these are people looking over the policies on the domestic and immigration and foreign policies.

there is some trickle-down coming through. mark millie demonstrated he would rather focus on critical race theory than winning wars. secretary mayorkas claims the borders are closed but we have 1.7 million people in, general boyd who had no actual strategic thought on how to withdraw in afghanistan closing bagram, left one airfield open, we could have had two plus 40,000 people in bagram airbase which they have taken control of, batteries for renewable cars so it is a duplicate of not only failed people to advise policies, and foreign policy which shouldn't be a surprise as the former dod secretary said biden is the only individual who is 100% wrong on foreign-policy. >> china to the border,

afghanistan. every action of this administration has made us markedly less safe over the course of the last 10 months than we were during the previous four years. my question, why would the president is number one job is to ensure the safety and security of america will, why would the president of the united states make his own country less safe? >> let's go back to that one year ago, the video you showed talked about meritocracy, identity politics, the youngest national security adviser, between democratic socialist agenda, what keeps america safe and america last agenda, the biden administration sitting over 50 million barrels of oil

reserves, as opposed to supporting the american people so this is about identity politics, why afghanistan failed and did not meet the agreement trump put in place but opponents like mine, stephanie murphy, democratic socialist who are trying to do that. it is a. todd: learning how to fight, not the other crap you mentioned. we appreciate your time, have a happy thanksgiving. carley: the time is 45 minutes after the hour. the restaurant owners of done everything they could to keep doors open surviving the pandemic and the lockdown policies that came with it. now they are praying the thanksgiving crowd will help put them back on track. we are talking to one of those business owners next.

>> turkey, apple pie, gas, democrats reckless spending has made everything costs more. congressman dan, we can't afford this. todd: it yelled rolls. aiming to oust 70 democrats from the house in the 2022 midterms. carley: dinner rolls are up 50% from last year, 16 pound turkey up 24%, cranberries 11%, pie shells everything is more expensive. todd: what stood out to me, did you see the three new york folks. i think the republicans are looking at what happened in new jersey, virginia and saying to themselves we kind of ignore new york and blue states but don't put all our efforts into it. maybe this year we will try harder. carley: you think it is inflation?

crime? i think this -- the biden administration poll numbers turnaround after the afghanistan withdrawal. then it was emphasized by how expensive things were getting, gas prices but the afghanistan withdrawal and national security issues were the tipping point the changed things for president biden. it depends on the state you are talking about. in virginia it is education. in new jersey it is the economy. we talk to a bunch of people after it almost went to the republican candidate governors race and they said it was taxes. we are both from new jersey. it just depends but it is a myriad of issues and it could be a problem. todd: all those issues forced the matter and at the end of the

day. carley: restaurant owners in new york crossing their fingers hoping for big crowds on thanksgiving to help recover ongoing losses caused by the pandemic. joining me is the chief culinary officer in new york city. got hungry saying the name of the restaurant. i am wondering, all your hopes riding around thanksgiving, if the cost of things because things are so expensive, will that keep people away and not want to go out to eat? >> i don't think so. we are seeing people coming out but when they come are they in a celebratory mood? are they willing to go forward on the wine or whatever? we have a lot of reservations. i'm hopeful.

carley: glad you have reservations but because of reservations are you going to order enough food? we heard from so many restaurant owners that we order this and we get that and i am wondering how that is affecting how you are planning for thanksgiving? >> we had to be super creative, get turkeys, typically i go with one but they are rationing right now so you can get 15 from here, 10 from over there. you have to put it together to get what you need and it is like you just have to take whatever - a small one or whatever, you are at the whim. >> restaurants were shut down so long in new york city because of the pandemic and who knew last year that we would be looking at

a trifecta of economic crises, supply chain or labor issues or inflation and i am wondering you want to make up for those losses with thanksgiving but will restaurants ever fully be able to recover? >> that is kind of a myth. we have to move on. you are never -- restaurants don't make money exponentially like that. you can never recoup all the loss. your landlords, everyone has to accept we turn the page on some level and some people are okay with it and a lot of people aren't. carley: you've got to move on and hopefully having turkey and mashed potatoes and all the things that make thanksgiving so great. thank you for joining us and preparing for thanksgiving. appreciate it.
