♪ ♪ >> emily: this is the "outnumbered." hello, everyone. i'm emily compagno here at my costs, kayleigh mcenany and harris faulkner. also joining us our kacie mcdonnell and joe concha. the deal is done. twitter's board has accepted elon musk's $44 billion buyout bid. musk is promising big changes and pledging to "unlock" the

social media platform "in the name of free speech," the igniting reaction on, you guessed it, twitter. the founder and former ceo, jack dorsey, is applauding the move and saying the goal of creating a platform that is maximally trusted and broadly is the right one. "this is the right path and i believe with all my heart." for much of the left, hysteria best describes their reaction. massachusetts senator elizabeth warren calling it "dangerous for our democracy." the civil rights weighing in, the aclu writing, "while elon musk is an aclu card carrying member and a significant supporter, there's a lot of danger having so much power in the hands of any one individual." the naacp pleading with musk to keep former president trump far away. "do not allow 45 to return to the platform. do not allow twitter to become a petri dish for hate speech or falsehoods that subvert our democracy." and cnn's brian adding this.

>> i think it's an example, which, if you get invited to something, where there are no rules, where there is total freedom for everybody, do you actually want to go to that party? or are you going to decide to stay home? and that the question for twitter users. some of them love the idea that there's going to be no moderation and no rules at all. others might not want to be anywhere near that. >> emily: and of course the white has weighed in. >> no matter who owns or runs twitter, the president has large been concerned about the power of large social media platforms and the power they have over their everyday lives. tech platforms must be held accountable for the harm they cause. >> emily: kayleigh, i think this constitutes a meltdown, and the question is, why? because it shatters the censorship that the left has had for so long. >> kayleigh: emily, i rejoice. i think we exchanged text around

3:00 p.m. yesterday. i was so happy when elon musk got twitter, and happier to go on some corners of twitter and see it looks like the javits center on november 8th, 2016. do you remember that iconic footage of the woman howling at the moon on their knees because trump was elected? this epic meltdown television, you could actually secretly banned one party's candidates and turned on the reach of their stuff, turn up the reach of someone else's, and the rest of us might not find out about it until after the election. that happened to president trump, to the hunter biden story. this is a great day and liberals don't fear twitter will become more conservative. that's not it. guess what? elon musk is not a conservative. he's an ideological enigma. he doesn't fit either side of the aisle. what they hear is a little playing field. that no longer will he have trends like hillary clinton trending. hillary clinton walking through a field scene picking a flower with rainbows bouncing off her

face, and donald trump kills 35 puppies and threw them into the gulf of mexico. that's not going be the trend anymore on twitter. it'll be a level playing field thanks to elon. >> emily: harris, part of what i found disturbing is it keeps being amplified that all of the sudden this concentrating power is into the hands of one individual, that the left decries as this super valiant billionaire, when really elon musk's concept is that he is restoring power to the people by emphasizing that freedom of thought, restricting the censorship so everyone is actually on a level playing field. >> harris: i livery started there, concentrating the power in the hands of one. don't get it twisted. that's exactly what we have now. we have 646 times, from a foundation that looked at this and let fox see what they found. 646 times that twitter was moderating or blocking criticism of president biden.

by moderating, you just don't help it get to the top and trend or you block it completely by stickering accounts, whatever it takes to get that down. you have one individual, one boy to come if you will, at twitter, already with all that power. elon musk isn't asking for all that power in his hands. he is saying, as you said so eloquently, emily, give it back to the people. what would that look like? i don't know. because if you are pulling in the 40s right now, president biden, and those criticisms are out there and they have some receipts tagged to them like articles and whatnot, no more stickers, no more blocks. people will be able to read what you have and haven't done. the promises you kept, and the ones they feel you have not kept. do you think the polling is struggling for the white house? you just wait. it'll be a few months, because it takes times for these deals to work themselves through. i am perched. >> emily: same. joe, and other billionaire somehow as "the good kind"

weighed in as well and we will get thoughts on the other side. i'm going to read it for you. here you go. an interesting question here. he tweeted this in response to "the new york times" reporter who noted tesla's reliance on china for its large market in lithium batteries. interesting question, did the chinese government just gain a bit of leverage of the town square? joe concha? >> joe: jeff bezos is a billion at last check, it goes one and two musk and bezos as far as register in the world. they both have rockets, one looks a little different than the other. bezos, 2019 "washington post," they took out an 8-page advertising supplement hailing the achievements and talking points of the chinese government. the editors weren't even allowed to touch it. they just said, "okay, chinese government, come on in. you are communists, i'm sure you'll have some nice things to say about yourselves." so bezos is quite the hypocrite here. "the washington post" is never endorsed a republican candidate

for president in its history. bezos can talk about disinformation or taking a side as much as we want as far as one paper, and his case, where democracy dies in the darkness. one of the most inferential papers in the country, kayleigh. you know this. yet, never in the history -- that means they endorsed walter mondale over reagan who won 49 states. talk about being out of touch. but i enjoy the cnn media guy talking about, hey, if you ever want to go to party... >> emily: their party correspondent? [laughs] >> joe: "would you want to go to a party that doesn't have any rules?" let me tell you about to have ae bungalow in the jersey shore. [laughter] >> emily: i'm not quite sure why the narrative is focused on elon musk owning the majority of twitter when, in history, all media outlets or many media outlets are owned by these robber barons, as the left puts it. why is this different than

"the washington post"? there are so many others that are owned by these billionaires that are only acceptable if they vote a certain way. >> joe: because many media lose their playground now. twitter, just remember, covid may have come from a lab in wuhan. jon stewart said it best. >> harris: you going to get sticker-80 for the next six months until he takes over. i know for experience, they're going to come for you pay [laughter] >> joe: if there's a chocolate outbreak in hershey, pennsylvania, where is the first place you look? maybe the chocolate factory. [laughter] or with wuhan maybe a look the lab that studies coronavirus. if you shared that story you were censored, suppressed, locked out. if you shed the hunter biden story, kayleigh mcenany the white house press secretary gets locked out. that all goes away now. you can't defend twitter in the terms of the way they conducted themselves to this point, and earnings come out thursday and they are going to be horrible. if this bid wasn't taken, though never see one like it again. there's going to be a revolt of

shareholders, losses all over the place. >> emily: that's right. kacie, let's get your thoughts on that specifically. part of the freak out on the left is this supposed flood of disinformation. what does that mean? is it the wuhan lab leak, hunter's laptop? these wild conspiracy theories that turn out to be rooted in fact that somehow, however, were totally suppressed on twitter and that now will actually come to light? why is the left so afraid of truth? >> kacie: i think they're afraid of former president donald trump. he has about 89 million followers and he is banned. we need shirts that say "i was banned on the old twitter." [laughter] that's what we need. but it's the same thing people on the other side of the aisle, the republicans and conservatives, have been voicing for so long. "this is happening to us," but now the tables are turned and it's everybody's problem. >> emily: that's right. excellent. moving on, a federal court dealing a major blow to

[laughter] president biden policy on immigration. a federal judge has temporarily blocked the administration from

listing title 42 restrictions for covid -- remember, that's why they were put in -- at the southern border with mexico ahead of officially ending them, set to happen on may 23rd. so a victory there. this comes as the u.s. supreme court today is hearing arguments on whether the administration acted properly in trying to end back the remain in mexico policy in the first place. that was put in place, as you know, under the trump administration, and it was working. meanwhile, a surreal moment when 21 illegal immigrants were found hidden inside two wooden crates during a traffic stop in texas. shocking discovery which took place earlier this month when state troopers and u.s. border patrol agents pulled over a pickup truck stopping the human smuggling attempt into laredo. kacie, i will start with you. i know you've got some numbers on all of this just to put us on that playing field that says this is only getting worse. >> kacie: they are expecting 18,000 illegal immigrants to come across the border daily,

over double what they are currently seeing with 7,000. but it's really coming down to the fact that every state is going to be a border state until something is done and they get a handle on this. you have the drugs and the trafficking. this is scary stuff. being a soon-to-be mom, it's scary stuff. >> harris: marsha blackburn of tennessee had originally set on fox news that every state as a border state, and it seems like maybe an early comment all these few months ago. she is proven right, i would say, almost every day because the demands of sentinel and some of the things were talking about >> emily: that's why 19 states joined on with the original three states to try and have an injection issued from the courts to stop the release of 42 or keep it in place. and we now know the judge indeed ruled, yes, you cannot take it away. this is really significant. the decision has not yet been published. we don't know exactly the reason

or the scope as a result, but we know the judge at least agreed with some of those plaintiffs' arguments saying keep it in place. interestingly, one of the arguments which was separate then the legal arguments which acknowledges the administration to make those calls was the strain on local resources. that's why the governors as far north as iowa have weighed in saying our communities are being absolutely devastated right now because of the crisis on the southern border regardless if we touch it physically. our communities are being overrun with the terrible problems that stem from the open flow on the southern border. >> harris: can i ask you if there's anything evidentiary they would be looking at and all of this that would have to do with a plan b? a lot of times the law may not be broad enough for them to say, "we are waiting for you guys to come up with a better idea."

but i guess we'll have to wait to read it. sometimes, from what i read, they can be mention of the fact that it's going to get a lot worse and you don't have anything to deal with that inflation. that infrastructure is not there. >> emily: that's right. and i thought that was part of the fit plaintiff argument. they said it was the last stopgap measure we had essentially obstructing that flow, and there is nothing else in place that we have heard from the federal government. the burden then would have been on the government to respond and say, "we have x, y, and z." clearly if they did it wasn't successful or deemed appropriate or strong enough. frankly i don't think there was even another option. >> harris: crickets, that's what we're talking about. i come to you, kayleigh, because you saw and some of the video -- i don't know is our team put it back up. there's a wall in the works, but we didn't get to finish the structures and i we are up against something that looks like a surge yonder capacity. what do you think about the talk

of the wall coming back? does not come back into politics? >> kayleigh: it certainly does, and the nonsensical statement that walls don't work. they do actually work. but that's with the white house press secretary told us. that aside, i think also i can come back is the protection protocols. it's very important, harris. there's a second case before the supreme court, biden versus texas. trump but these procedures in place saying that if you want to apply for asylum, by all means, do it, but you have to wait in mexico. he voted for it in 1996 that he's the reason we even have this. it was unlawful the way he rolled it back. the supreme court is deciding it so that may be a saving grace. it can do a lot in terms of immigration. one last point to make, we talked about bish and to mike bishopevans yesterday. they acknowledged that death but in response to question from fox news. that was a huge fumble. address that immediately. don't fumble before -- >> harris: we have time.

let's watch jen psaki at the lectern. >> of course we are mourning the loss of his life, and we are grateful for the work of every national guardsmen. i would note the national guard works for the state, so he is an employee of the texas national guard, and his efforts in operation were directed by them, not by the federal government. >> harris: joe concha? >> joe: the white house should have issued a statement, not ask a question and respond to it. >> harris: you mean days ago? >> joe: when this happen. even go to the man's funeral, perhaps. he was working and tried to save two people and he drowned. >> harris: the vice president has time. >> clearly. if she even has the staffing at this point. i'll be quick. it's amazing how often this administration is wrong on every issue, on title 42, on inflation. they call it transitory and then they call it putin's fault. on crime they say it's because republicans didn't support build back better, and that's why you are seeing these rates

go up. no. nine education they take the sides of teachers unions of her parents. no. on the border they blame donald trump, as you said before, and he was trying to build a wall that's not going to wear, and that we were given a broken system. no. so every time they are wrong and their own party is again revolting against them, and it's just going to lead to another black eye from the indentation that looks like rocky in rocky iv.

he had a real heart and soul for service. let's pray for the grandparents. >> joe: indeed. >> harris: gonzales asked of that and i promised we would and on "outnumbered" we keep it pretty tight prayer circle so let's do that. >> joe: sounds good. >> harris: coming up, behind that happy facade, and explosive new book dishes on the deep reservations team biden had about the then candidate for vice president, kamala harris. and whether of the piece which could be a winning strategy in 2024. ♪ ♪ wealth is breaking ground on your biggest project yet. worth is giving the people who build it a solid foundation. wealth is shutting down the office for mike's retirement party. worth is giving the employee who spent half his life with you, the party of a lifetime.

>> kayleigh: joe biden and kamala harris may seem buddy buddy now but it may not have always been the case and joe biden wasn't always a fan either. a book report that the now first lady was not happy here has been chose harris to be his running mate after she attacked him during a primary debate. it was brutal. jill biden voiced her frustration saying there were millions of people in the united states, why do we have to choose the one who attacked joe? fair question. according to the book, biden himself had no reservations about having kamala harris join his ticket. among her, the past romantic relationship with the former san francisco mayor who appointed her to a pair of political positions. the book also dishing that stacey abrams was "dismissed almost from the start." ouch. because of her lack of experience, and losing the 2018 georgia governor race that she still thinks she won. [laughter] all that aside, the most interesting part of the book, i

thought, had to do with president joe biden. let's flash back before we get to it. the years jen psaki telling us that obama and biden are buddy-buddy. >> i would note they continued to talk regularly. they are real friends, not just washington friends, so i'm sure they will talk about events in the world as well as their families and personal lives. >> kayleigh: that was jen psaki, but remember this moment when president obama came to the white house and joe biden was kind of left in the dust and it was awkward and embarrassing? that seems to be more of the story, harris. apparently obama, according to pelosi in this book, has completed feelings about joe. they only spoke occasionally at the outset of his presidency, hardly the stuff of the tight brotherhood they have sold us. and she is saying obama is jealous of joe. i'm not sure what there is to be jealous of. >> harris: conflict in the relationship! there's nothing positive about that.

they share only a beginning letter, complicated and cozy. what's gone on in the last couple of weeks, that event. the president had that gridiron dinner. there's been a lot of covidness going on. this is off topic but it is about the vice president. a statement from the press secretary to -- that's your name, not the actress. vice president harris has tested positive for covid-19 on rapid and pcr tests. she has exhibited no symptoms and while isolated will continue to work from the vice president residence. she has not been in close contact to the president or first lady due to their respective recent travel schedules. she will follow cdc guidelines, so on and so forth, and return to the white house when she tested negative. but there have been several events and there was something as great possibilities from all those people, including the speaker of the house, who tested

positive after that smoochy on the cheek with the president. kamala harris at some of those events and they were close they are. i just point that out because it happened. back to your initial question, i'll be brief. if there is something positive to report between this president and this vice president, don't you think they'd be doing it? >> kayleigh: that the great line. our prayers to the vice president. a scary time any time any leader and someone close to the president gets this. we will keep her in our prayers. apparently this obama-biden relationship, president biden said again, according to the book and an advisor, "i am confident that barack is not happy with the coverage of this administration because it's more transformative than his administration." what is going on here? i'm sorry, but that's not the way things are reported! >> joe: transforming? to worse. we talk about it. inflation, crime, education, the border, foreign affairs.

i think going in the right direction and he's at 43% approval. i never bought that they were close friends. barack obama took joe biden on board because he was a community organizer and in the senate for 6 minutes, so he needed someone with foreign policy experience and joe biden was seen then as the best candidate for that. it was a need. >> harris: what were the options? >> joe: tim kaine tim kaine was everyone, eventually hillary clinton's choice. i never bought it because with my friends i don't go out and buy friendship bracelets. i don't run to twitter and share that i have a friendship bracelet with my friends. it's just not something that guys do. when biden did that it was obviously to put on a show. if you want to replace kamala harris as the number two, who are your options exactly? because now i have to pick another black woman. if you don't do that and you eliminate this historic candidate, then black voters who already left joe biden by the tuna something like 20 points already

since election day, they willfully completed. then the choices i stacey abrams, who will probably look in georgia again if you look at her polling right now, or susan rice, they are probably better off with donna rice. >> harris: when voters are not leaving because kamala harris is failing? they are for a different color and it is green. even during the pandemic and all the struggles this country was going through, we as a category of voters come into the lives color, african-americans, have risen to a point of economic growth and low in 50 years unemployment. that color was green. i don't know that any of this would have anything to do with the color of the next candidate's skin if joe biden could get inflation under control. if he could get gas prices under control. if he could rest the mantle out of the hands of progressives and get back on track with those

hurting the come the committal policies and cities. places we can have some influence. >> joe: he has shown he can't. two white guys on the ticket? i'm not advocating that. >> emily: vice president kamala harris does have a big supporter, the chief of staff, o apparently advised terry, "you bungled this border situation. he gave it to you. i know it's a hard job but dig into the policy and do your homework." i'm paraphrasing but it's all in the book. i.c.e. and according to the book he was sort of her benefactor from the first minute. we understand that the now first lady was like, there are millions of people in this country and you're going to pick the one who attacked my husband? can you find anyone else? and he said she's the most qualified, she ran for president herself, and that if joe biden chose her it would indicate that he was man dan mack magnanimous and that unification he

promised, obviously -- the fact that ron klain has now said get to it, show me something, show me i wasn't dead wrong, that shows that he might be the very last american that actually still holds out hope or faith that she will do her job. i wish her well as covid and i hope she recovers. >> harris: amen. >> kacie: apparently when they went to vote for the infrastructure bill, instead of telling them to vote for the bill he must have forgotten that. he instead told the story about an aging pitcher named satchel paige, and according to axios, his yarn about an aging pitcher was not altogether reassuring to the democrats in the room. your thoughts? >> emily: i guess you can be president if you tell these stories. it's a whole different realm to politics. to your point, saying that kamala harris was the most qualified, who wants to be the president or vice president? maybe we should put an open call and go from there. steel and i wish they would predicate it on skin color and hair texture. it would be great. >> kayleigh: the book, "this

♪ ♪ >> emily: the men and women who serve and protect us are coming under attack at an alarming rate. fbi data shows 46 law enforcement officers were murdered in 2020, and in 2021, 73 officers were killed. that's a 59% increase. tragically, 17 officers have been killed already this year while working to keep our communities safe. fbi director christopher wray says the skyrocketing numbers of murders against police officers is unlike anything he has seen before.

>> violence against law enforcement in this country is one of the biggest phenomenons that i think doesn't get enough attention. last year officers were being killed at a rate of almost one every five days. one of the phenomenons we saw last year is that an alarming percentage of the 73 law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty last year were killed through things like being ambushed, or shot while out on patrol. wearing a badge should make you a target. >> emily: kacie, the percentage increase in those ambushes that the fbi director mentioned, it's over 300%. it's undeniable that our law enforcement have become targets. one almost every five days. it's a thankless job off the bat. we saw this hatred for many women in uniform really started to sprout more and more throughout the pandemic, and it's devastating. this used to be something that generations partook in. my father was a police officer,

my grandfather, my grandmother, and people jumped out that opportunity to dedicate their lives to protecting and serving. and it is that. it's wearing the badge, it should make you a target, but it is. these execution styles and ambushes, there's just no words for it. >> emily: that's right. joe, arguably the media has been complicit in this cultural war on law enforcement that somehow was accepted and amplified across mainstream media. >> joe: emily, it seems more and more, at least from left-leaning organizations, and there are many, that law enforcement, police officers, were deemed guilty until proven innocent in any questionable shooting. we saw it over and over again. as a result, now we are seeing a record number of police officers retiring or resigning and morale is at an all-time low because obviously these numbers are under siege like we have never seen before. so hopefully now we turn the page, it's no longer defund the police but refund the

police. momentum back on that side, even from democratic politicians, for their own self-preservation, that they will start supporting law enforcement more. but the damage has been done by a former mayor here in new york, bill de blasio. took $1 billion away from the nypd. he read what you replaced so. >> emily: our law enforcement are not able to step to the microphone and speak their views publicly. and the elected officials who should be their voice and the advocates, their supporters like former mayor de blasio, those are who dropped their support and turned their back, shut off their support for law enforcement from opening the floodgates for this community culture war against law enforcement that hopefully is turning around. >> harris: that's why there's so much hope with this administration. i don't live in new york city but i know that's true for eric adams and the new commissioner. eric adams, a former cop for 22 years and a former republican.

i think maybe people thought that -- he's talked about broken windows and some things and taken a lot of heat from the left. he is somebody who has spoken so eloquently. they both have, the cops killed here in new york city, that it takes more than all of that. it takes a growing number of people at every level of authority in the united states to stop talking badly about the men and women in blue. and to understand that they are a microcosm of society. if there are some among them who should probably not be cops, if there is a process that needs to be tightened up, i would say that about a lot of parts of our society. right? and they have regular conversations with the fraternal order of police, the largest union of police officers in america. i have them on faulkner focus and we talk off-line. they were trying mildly to get the word out to the public that they are on our side. you know why? because you see them at the
