prominent liberals and the media unleashing onto senator a national tragedy and a corrupt republican scumbag for daring to defy his party. party. lucas tomlinson from washington, lucas, good morning. >> good morning, guys protesters gathered in front of the homes of supreme court justices, here is one the home of justice amy coney barrett. >> it is also possible she is not a doctors mother is a clear inability to see what it's like to carry a pregnancy to term. >> five biological children and two adopted children. the protest lasted 30 minutes. the senate majority leader said chuck schumer said this is only the beginning. >> today will be's before. tomorrow a national ban on abortion and beyond that, something more dreadful. we cannot allow that shameful backslide to happen.

we cannot allow the winds of magna republicans to bully the rest of the country into submission. i urge my colleagues, take a stand! >> todd: senator joe manchin's vote to codify abortion rights this afternoon and the bill needed 60 votes to clear procedural hurdle in the senate. back glenn youngkin said he wants president biden to do more to stop the protesters. >> we have taken a two-pronged approach in virginia here at first, the state police to be ready and attorney general garland to force the law and make sure these demonstrators are not allowed to try to intimidate justices like they are trying to do. it is clearly in the federal statute this is wrong and the attorney general makes them enforce it. >> the justice set to meet the first time since the first draft opinion lake. a final decision expected by the end of june, carley, tied to. >> carley: at lucas tomlinson live for us. president of the heritage

foundation, thank you so much for joining us this morning. what do you make of the attacks against joe manchin quest market is a place he's becoming very familiar with unfortunately for him. it was not even his vote that sank this bill. they need 60 to pass it. >> that is right. we see a lot of things about the radical meth. they can't do math. they needed 60 votes but they were 11 votes shy. but we have seen unfortunately in the last two weeks the radical left to show their true colors. i have both the privilege and burden of working in washington, d.c., literally around the corner of the supreme court building. it is so distasteful to see the level of rhetoric at the justices home. i think we have to understand as a country, it used to be that this was not a liberal or interpretive thing or an american thing that you honor this disagreement whether senator manchin or conservative justices. the radical left is not claimed by the rules anymore. we have to recognize that on our side. >> todd: dr. they feel like

this will help them become midterms here are the issues that is going to change the tide the way the tide has been going with republicans basically claiming victory in the house come november. are the democrats misreading the media and twitter echo chamber right or is the world really on their side? >> on a deadline, todd absolutely they are peer they are doing that for two reasons. america is fine to the previous point this is so distasteful they are turning against them but the second thing, two or three poles we have done in the last couple of weeks that americans understand the radicalism of this pro-abortion agenda, which remember in california would actually have someone at the aborted one week after they are out of the womb. this is not something americans want to see. it is murder. the more that our side can talk about that reality but also recognize that overturning roe v. wade is probate become a pro mom, pro-dad, pro-america

and our side will be a positive. >> carley: are you surprised they have not found out who leaked this? when this started i thought 24 hours tops. we still don't know who did it. >> it is a great disappointment to me with the chief of justice which i have no relation ship has not gotten to the bottom of this. if it were you or me or tied we would have known this. >> do you think he knows? >> i think he's moving slowly, carley and unacceptable. >> todd: basically should be able to do an investigation much quicker. >> this is not rocket science. >> todd: the federal judge extending the order by biden administration for title 42 early. in the end, dr. roberts, will title 40 to be in place or go away? i will make a little bit of a contra vic's until my controversial prediction. just as we see congress against the radical left is abortion, we

are seeing impressive consensus bipartisan emerging to keep title 42 in place. heritage is helping both sides of the aisle to do that. i think the more we can focus on the impact for all of us, immigrants themselves, the better off we are and the more optimistic it will happen. >> carley: on this border issue, listen how she breaks it down, watch the spirits big with the title 42 to expire will actually be the final nail in the coffin to the total failure by the administration to secure the border. >> put a big sign on our border "come on in." and our tails to abuse them and allow them to get abused in the process and i in the process. americans taken on the chance tax dollars, schools, in terms of what we deal finding dead migrants with fentanyl and individuals, 42 people on the tariffs watch list. >> carley: he sums it up well and the heritage foundation and other conservative organizations

and former trump administration are urging republicans to unite around a bill on border security. so if and when the tide changes in november, there could be something substantial to bring to the president's desk. what is in that proposal that you support? >> the proposal is historic. we have never had this number of high-quality organization sign onto the same objectives. the highlights of that bill or that proposal, carley, starts with border security. it is one of the most pro-immigration systems you could have which is to say we will honor the rule of law by having the border so that you can have a transparent system for people who want to come here illegal to come here. it begins and ends with border security. it is really important to sum up here that it does not include amnesty. we have some senators, including senators that are right on some issues talk about amnesty here that is a nonstarter of the

heritage foundation. every single one of those foundations will blow up amnesty. i want to speak clearly about that. this is an issue of border security, 3 million illegal aliens have come into the country since biden inaugurated appeared unacceptable, it is inhumane and un-american. >> todd: definitely giving your position and rock-solid. in the meantime president biden blaming the republicans for 8.4% inflation and record high gas prices, take a listen. >> the republican colleague say these programs, no class people, they say that is why we have inflation. they are dead wrong. under my predecessor, the great maga candidate cometh the deficit increased every single year he was president. >> todd: he went out on a limb on the first topic. i will go out on a limb here. is it safe to say joe biden has no plan to solve inflation basically to life and accuse republicans of doing the very

thing he is doing? >> todd, my friend, i'm out on the limb with you. that is what is happening. all kidding aside because we should be weeping about this, of course, it's hard to not comment on the ability to not communicate well but this is all biden fold. they were complicating factors, inflation is biden's fault and we continued to spend recklessly and inflation is an abstract concept but it affects all american families. whether at the grocery store or paying electric bill, it is really, really crucial to put pressure on the biden administration to stop spending recklessly peer to stop blaming everyone else for the problem they created. >> carley: if you look at the numbers inflation 1.4% when he took office. now 8.3. how about him calling trump the maga cane? that will wake you up. dr. roberts, thank you for joining us this morning. >> todd: love the labels on the left. in the meantime the house panel here for the coming weeks, a

baby shortage across the country including mitt romney calling on the fda and the department of agriculture to do something and do it fast. "given the serious implication of the current shortage on infants health, i'm deeply concerned about the apparent lack of mitigation strategy and urge both agencies to move as fast as possible to safely resolve the situation." the current shortage extends from a partially recalled and that company warns it will take ten weeks to get baby formula back on the shelves. that is way too long. once given fda approval, we will open the biggest factory in michigan. here former trump advisory kellyanne conway's reaction to all of this, listen. >> this is no laughing matter. bumbling joe and kamala harris but people are suffering, sean. mothers can't get baby formula in the united states of america. folks are paying more for every

consumables. everyday life is less affordable and less secure under joe biden. people know that. you know what i hear from people all the time? they don't just say we are america and we are resilient. we will look forward and it will be optimistic. it was better not that long ago and i want that back. >> todd: retailers including cbs and walgreens limiting formula purchase to three containers. >> carley: elon musk at the media, the tesla ceo posting a meme on twitter with a brain three levels of enlightenment. the first level is publishing factual, actual news and the second articles with quick fate and out of context flow with the brain growing brighter and the last publishing articles in accurate, slanderous and include at least one accusation of being a showing the brain exploding with enlightenment. criticizing the media and to be the target of criticism for

liberal outlets too big to take over twitter. onto a fox news alert now, republican lawmakers say they now have evidence from the doj whistle-blowers that the fbi did come in fact target parents last year with tactics despite attorney general merrick garland and insisting otherwise. >> todd: ashley strohmier live in the studio. >> jim jordan and mike johnson have evidence targeted those parents and protest through school covid policies. you will remember september the national school board association sent a letter to the administration and comparing them to domestic parents. merrick garland testified the doj did not target parents. here is garlin on the 21st of october. >> i can imagine any circumstance in which the patriot act would be used and the circumstances of parents complaining about their children nor could i imagine the circumstances where they would

be labeled as domestic terrorism. >> so the two republican representatives sent a letter addressed to ag garlin when it says "in testimony before the department, components using counterterrorism resources to target parents at school board meetings. we have evidence contrary to your testimony of the federal bureau of investigation has labeled at least dozens of investigation into parents with a tag created by the fbi's counterterrorism division to access and track investigations related to school boards." another part of the letter lays an example of such targeting things, "the fbi field office open an investigation into republican elected officials over allegations from state democratic party officials that republicans incited violence by expressing public pleasure with school district vaccine mandates." this complaint came into the fbi through the national threat operations center snitch line.

and garlin lied under oath. >> what he said in the committee was direct contradiction of the fact that we now know is a straight up whistle-blower. he said counterterrorism to go after moms and dads would not do that. that it's exactly what they did. >> okay when investigation lawmakers see the fbi's interviewed moms telling a school board "we are coming for you" she was reported because she belonged to right-wing moms group and the fbi eventually determined she was not a threat. back to you guys. >> todd: unbelievable, ashley, thank you very much. despite administration denials from the start, we knew this was happening and now it appears we do have proof. think about this for a minute. our counterterrorism division is designed to prevent the next 9/11 peer that is what it is therefore. but instead it was interfering with parents trying to make sure that their kids can actually add nine plus 11. think about that for a moment. these kids are trying to get an

education. parents want them to get an education but the counterterrorism division is focused on going after the parents. for the ag as jim jordan pointed out right there to lie under oath is either a crime itself or evidence of someone who literally doesn't know what is happening inside the justice department that he is supposed to be leading. >> carley: listen to one of the fbi investigations. agents apparently interviewed a dad who opposed mask mandates, why? the person reported that dad said he fit the bill of insurrectionist and rails against the government and had a lot of guns. that doesn't mean you are a criminal peer that could describe everyone even watching the show right now. and then come of course, they found out that he didn't pose a threat. but ashley did a good job of bringing us back and todd, how this whole thing started. just to add to that in september the national school board association sent a letter to the biden administration saying these protests are

getting out of control at school board meetings and parents of domestic terrorists. the attorney general said of them all right if the national school board association is worried about this, we will look into this. then we find out that the biden administration actually was the one behind that letter. they requested that letter be written through the secretary of education. then in october, merrick garland under oath sagging "we are not using antiterrorism tools against parents." according to jim jordan and the whistle-blowers so concerned about it, that is looking like it wasn't true. >> todd: there was reportedly a stitch length. what does that remind you of? nazi germany, right? parents come to midterms and the boots will vote for america and not russia. that means they will go with a side that is not doing this. that appears at this point to be the republicans. to a fox news alert and basically california laguna beach, look at that going up in flames. 20 homes destroyed with a

dealing with. like you said, the government is not doing enough for him and not by a long shot. what i think we need to do is a few things. one, we actually have to hold criminals, drug dealers to account. that is not what we are doing right now in california. what we have right now is a system of site and release. we essentially have law enforcement going out and writing tickets and letting these criminals go on their merry way. when in reality, what we should be doing is making sure we hold them to account so if there are any deaths that result from the use of the fentanyl that they sold, that they are essentially on the hook for manslaughter. that is first and foremost. the second thing we need to do is make sure the border crisis is finally, finally, finally held under account. and we actually address the border crisis we are dealing with right now. when we allow for these problems to metastasize, this is what we are dealing with. unfortunately we have a government asleep at the wheel in california and across the

country. >> todd: i want to focus on california for a moment here. while you were speaking, we put up a map of the various cities in your state for the cartels have operations, they literally are doing business in these major cities throughout california. and there is this wild story, 1s of heroin seized from a car outside of california high school. if governor newsom in california authorities know these cartels are operating in their cities, why aren't they shutting them down? >> you know, they are focusing on all the wrong stuff in the state. they are focusing -- and we saw in education for example, they are focusing to make sure the curriculum has as much equity and inclusion and the courses on diversity when in reality, our state is quite literally on fire. we have all these crises up and down, but it's not convenient for them to talk about this sort of crisis. they would like to paint california some paradise. unfortunately, the california

that i grew up in is nothing like the california that we have right now. we are blessed with tremendous resources up and down the state. and yet, they are getting wasted left and right with crises allowed to fester like this. i think part of it also has to do with the fact that it is uncomfortable for the status quo in california to talk about the fact that this has everything to do with the border crisis. or the fact we have mexican cartels that are promoting this and allowing for this to happen. >> todd: 100%. >> even saying that they have been called a racist. >> todd: i left the state the ten years ago and is not the same state a decade ago. we have seen video of waterfront mansions being destroyed by fast-moving wildfire along california's coast. we see this all the time in your state. how is governor newsom mismanaging fire prep in response? why is he doing it in the name of the environmentalist? >> i will tell you, our state right how now has a $68 million

surplus, surplus and yet in the past two years, they have cut of the fire prevention program in california by $150 million. and not only is this completely tragic for the people that are affected by the fire is, it is also the most fiscally irresponsible thing that you can possibly do because by not investing in prevention, we now have to pour resources last-minute to be able to contain the fires. like his head at the top, it is 0% contained right now. so the truth of the matter is this governor has all the wrong priorities from a budgetary perspective, even when we have a surplus we are not investing in fire prevention. >> todd: makes no sense and it is also horrible for the environment. all that smoke is not good for smog and the ozone. that is a mess. john ellis, thank you so much, sir, for being here and keep us posted on your campaign. we will be watching. >> thank you. >> todd: carley. >> carley: the california law
