hi everyone i am leo terrell along with alicia acuna, sean duffy and lara trump. welcome to "the big saturday show". here's what's on tap tonight, lara. clark's climate runs rampant in democrat run cities for just hours ago a deadly shooting at a grocery store in buffalo, new york. president biden is defending the progressive policy like a bail reform and radical prosecutors.
2:01 pm
>> alicea. >> a white house walk back after tweeting a claim that could be flagged by biden's own disinformation board. >> and shawn. >> activists are about to harass the people justices after homes marching to the supreme court. now justice thomas has a warning about the impact of the drafts opinion a leak. >> but first, biden's devastating baby formula crisis worsens. shortages surpassing 50% in some states including delaware, tennessee, montana and texas. the shortage break not spring up overnight back in december of 50% foreman that was out of stock on things only got worse with abbott laboratories shut it doors after massive recall in february. president biden, when asked if this wasn't preventable only a mind reader would have been successful, listen. >> and parents got to the shelves and could not find
2:02 pm
formula? >> a foot inveterate minders i guess because of it. >> you know sean i cannot make eight joke about that with the statement biden made this happen in february it was the fda, his administration. he was well aware of this and his administration they did absolutely nothing, your thoughts. >> is going to be out with all due especially i've always been waiting to do a show with you i'm missing 2.0 hat. no offense but leo is a rock star in our house. this is not a joking matter. we have had nine kids she has nurse them all but are less little baby had a heart condition and needed surgery. we need to supplement the milk with formula babies are joyful, they are wonderful if you can't feed him, new parents are absolutely stressed out. you shut down 40% of the milk production in this one affected by the fda and think there's not going to be a crisis, course joe
2:03 pm
biden saw it coming. the fact they did nothing about it pete buttigieg who is in charge of the supply chain, who is married to a man neither of them can nurse or some such thing is chest beating bait used a form that you think they would see this coming say hey their other parent out there with other kids like ours. we should probably do something about it to make sure parents in america can feed their babies. >> absolutely. lara you might recall it may be, may be not there was a president, the 45th the president is called operation warp speed when we had a problem with getting a vaccine. he accelerated it. right cap this a president take the initiative have something i can operation warp speed like president trump to take care of this baby formula shortage? >> oh my gosh yes. president trump did more than that he moved like an entire barge to new york city, they set up tents up there in central
2:04 pm
park they had the entire village people could come get treated. medical supplies all across the country and at a moments notice but nobody predicted there would be a pandemic like this and then we were hit with that. president trump moved into action here operation warp speed probably saved an untold number of lives. but the democrats, we are always a day late and i was sure they are totally unprepared for any and everything especially with joe biden as the leader. the fact we saw this coming, as you said we have known for months there could be an issue with this. and yet nothing was done about it should make everybody incredibly furious across this country especially parents. sean you are exactly right. look, as a parent the fundamental matter, your job as a parent is to provide shelter, safety and food for your child. if you cannot provide one of those items it is the most stressful horrible situation in
2:05 pm
your life. to all of the parents out there god bless you are who are having to deal with this. if i thought maybe i was running low on something i'll get stressed out. too not be able to find what you need for your newborn baby, for your infant unbelievable. should never happen in the united states of america. >> absolutely lara. you know alecia the "washington post" did a fact check article. they came up with a opinion section for the following this is a ridiculous outrage the shortage of baby formula is a serious and issued the administration is seeking to address it. at the same time the administration cannot be faulted for following the law and providing baby formula to the undocumented immigrants. look there is also a file that pension followed by jen psaki taken as a former white house press secretary said they have to comply with the law i think it's called the floors act. i think we have that sound piece from jen psaki, do we have it?
2:06 pm
>> we believe that when children and babies or babies i should say or crossing board with family members at providing them formula is morally right. >> you know, jen no one is disputing we have a moral obligation to take care of those individuals, those children coming across the border. this country is the greatest country on the planet. we help everyone throughout the world 40 billion-dollar proposed aid to ukraine but how can american children become less, under this administration it seems like america last, your thoughts. >> leo, this is an impossible situation and absolutely terrible equation i think for this administration to try to solve in the middle of having messaging issues this entire week and were going to talk about that later. there is no way anyone is going to want to tell a mother of the infant who is the most innocent regardless of where they are from that they have to choose
2:07 pm
whether or not they're going to feed this child or this child. it's absolutely impossible and horrible to even think about. however, telling a mother who is worried about her child that you are not a mind reader when it comes to the problem is probably the exact wrong message to deliver. mothers who are worried about their children do not care what party is in power if they cannot feed their child. everything else gets erased when you have a mama bear and lara will back me up on this. a mama bear is worried, get out of her way and help her out. that is all they want. >> absolutely. go ahead please. >> i want to feed kids at the southern border to i don't indicate to not have milk it. i do not want infant to not have food. when you cannot feed your own babies why is joe biden allowing more people, encouraging more people, more mothers more babies to come to our border and take milk or from our own children? jen psaki was asked a question
2:08 pm
if we could change along congress to say we have to prioritize american moms over illegal immigrants moms that's a horrible chance to take. if you do prioritize american moms over migrant moms, would joe biden said that bill? i would guess his answer b no i won't sign it. go ahead. >> i find it very interesting that the washington post feels like they should decide which laws we are going to follow in the united states bait neat as to follow this law what about the law that says you cannot cross our southern border illegally? none of this would be being talked about if we followed that law. if joe biden took sean's point was not encouraging people off kamala harris was not encouraging people the democrats were encouraging people to take a dangerous journey which by the way infants die all the time coming up to our southern border. we would not have the situation
2:09 pm
were immigrant children illegally here in america are prioritized and getting baby formula and her own united states citizens cannot find it. it's absolutely outrageous. it should never happen but. >> inexcusable let me mention to joe biden president trump also present bride and streamline this is a totally inexcusable it's a self-inflicted crisis by the joe biden administration it's totally ridiculous. next a fox news alert crime runs rapid and democratic rents it is with another shooting. the same at a grocery store in buffalo, new york. president biden is defending the very policy that god is here. ♪

2:14 pm
newsroom, nay. >> just a horrible scene playing out right now buffalo. tops supermarket northwest of downtown you just said ap is reporting ten people have been killed. which is an increase of two in the past few minutes. we are just learning about your look at video of the scene right now. please tape up, investigators trying to make sense of this horrific shooting. we are seeing horrible videos on social media and we are not going to show you right now. witnesses have described a man walking in with an assault rifle wearing a vest, pictures on social media appear to show the man wearing camouflage and boots. police to say the suspect is in custody. again the unfortunate news to report the ap is reporting ten people have been shot and killed. this is a look at where this is happening for the shooting scene at the tops to premarket i can type out a block south of here is the nearest fire department freedom videos we have firefighters and police on scene tending to people on the ground. it is unclear if the person they're tending to some of the
2:15 pm
people who were killed or a victim injured person. a lot of reaction pouring in your taking a look at the scene including from governor kathy. she tweeted think she's closely monitoring the shooting. she is offering assistance to local officials for the erie county sheriff's office is also sending help all available resources scene right now congressman lee zeldin also releasing a statement in the past few minutes fit his hort united states streets, subways and homes need to be safe again put a witness described being right outside the grocery store, right before the shooting. just by chance he happened to walk away thinking as he did. he described the shooting happening both inside and outside the tops of friendly market. you see right here in buffalo, new york investigators are trying to make sense of this horrific act of trying to learn the gunman's motives and everything that led up to this deadly shooting a mass shooting in buffalo will send it back to
2:16 pm
you guys. >> nay, thank you very much. absently horrific to see this sort of thing happen. you know, we have seen crime going up all across the country especially in major cities, democrat run cities. you think, leo, about what leads us to situations like this. what do you think is a deterrent for crime? you often think you need to hold people accountable when they actually commit crimes but take a listen to the sound bite. this is joe biden defending progressive a bail reform as we see crime surging across the country. >> whom regarded leniency of prosecutors that has on balance not been the biggest problem. i think the bail reform and the negative side of bail reform is vastly overrated. it's your relate to the severity of the crime and what the problem is relating your accused of.
2:17 pm
exit leo, no responsibility for any of that. >> know he is clueless. let's be honest he is reading a script given to him by the progressive left. let's be very clear since the summer of 2020, the democrats have turned their backs on the law and order. that is a fact. they basically in my opinion the rise of 2020. what we have in this country right now is disgraceful. soft prosecutors who will not keep career criminals in jail. i live in one of the cities, los angeles we look at chicago, you look at new york, these democrats refuse, refuse to call up the soft prosecutors. that is the problem. criminals know for a fact they are not going to jail if they commit a crime. you have escalation and it's been going on since 2020 and it has to stop. the only way it's going to stop we've got to get the soft prosecutors out. got to get democratic run cities and got to change the
2:18 pm
composition of the leadership in these democratic cities or it's going to get worse. that is bad news for america. law and order have been missing and democratic cities. >> sean, you look at a situation so horrible people out on a saturday at a grocery store in buffalo, new york pretty think that's a safe place to take maybe your kid with you to go shopping with your family. we saw it last night and milwaukee game several shootings outside of the stadium people running for their lives, screaming. we continued to see smash and grab crimes in broad daylight and new york city that is milwaukee from last night absolutely horrifying. you think you take your kids to a basketball game. our people at some point going to say it's not worth it to go out anymore? it is not safe? it's probably part of the reason so many people are moving away from the city.
2:19 pm
>> the d.a.'s john chisholm he was a liberal prosecutor before they were on the news he is before george and san francisco. he has been light on crime for a long time these the results you get from light on crime prosecutors. i agree with leo in the sense made stronger prosecutors we need people who will vote in new prosecutors who are going to be tough on crime because these are elective jobs number one. here's the thing's going to happen you're going to see tomorrow democrats are going to come out and say we need new gun laws. they want to take away guns from law-abiding citizens the millions of americans who respectfully own their firearms in places like wisconsin where most of my constituents use guns they're going to push that solution to a problem they created. and listen, while enforcement is a problem but you cannot police good behavior. there is a lack of morality and faith, fatherlessness a whole bunch of issues taking place in
2:20 pm
our culture have led us away for a civil society they would get someone to pick up a gun of the lack of respect for life to pick up a gun and shoot a family going out to get hamburgers that they can afford hamburgers with the inflation. for a barbecue. there is insanity and depravity taking place in society. we have to address that. cops can't do it but we as a culture have to do is say come back to some values that make countries great in society straighten families great. if you don't do that were not going to fix this. >> is very upsetting. and alecia, do you remember when jen psaki denied, listen to the soundbite we all remember this, they were setting out crack pipes in the smoking kits talk about society degrading up early were helping people with this, listen. >> no federal funding has gone to it. this policy does not allow for crack pipes to be included this is a bit of a conspiracy theory that is been spread out there it is not accurate there is important drug programs for
2:21 pm
people who have been suffering from what we've seen as an epidemic across the country and money is not used for crack pipes. >> so alecia, turns up is actually true the money was used for crack pipes and they were in the safe smoking kits. why are we not trying to fix these problems question whether it's crime, drug use, you'd think we want to do something better than send out crack pipes but that indeed is what was happening. >> the washington free beacon to give them credit did unearth all of this it. it was not a one off these pipes were found in one of these kits it was found in multiple kits in multiple cities to let folks know that actually is true when jen psaki was saying was not exactly true. so, terms of taking care of it i found very interesting the president said the criticism over bail reform and the lessening of prosecutor action that it was overrated.
2:22 pm
it is very highly rated with the progressive side of the democratic party. we have parents out there who are worried about just about everything from baby formula to nnot see how this is going to be helpful in the midterms. let's go ahead i'm sorry. it's just police chief in l.a. set a member los angeles capitol crime of the world the police chief said hey, we arrested 24 shoplifters they were released the next day. you cannot tell me that soft on crime prosecutors are releasing these individuals in this bail reform allows these criminals go back on the street is happening and the criminals are emboldened it's ridiculous it's outright lying by the democrats.

2:39 pm
walk away from? >> it is troubling you. and he is probably right, the way things have been going if you look all around things have changed but it's also interesting to see the intimidation tactics the bully tactics and that's what they are if you are showing up at someone's house that is exactly what you are doing, against the supreme court justices who are sitting on the high court in part because of their brilliance but in part because none of them have a history of shrinking to any kind of pressure whatsoever. they use their minds and as you said sean they are calm, they are thoughtful the screaming and yelling is hard to see how this helps the cause that these folks who are showing up to protest and have every right to protest are trying to accomplish it's really hard to equate them. >> leo i want to protest at my office some members of congress have had that at their homes its

lawful act hate it but it happens. even a march right on the mall of the capitol that is the way you exercise your first amendment rights if you do say i want to go kill little babies on the day of their birth that's what we stand for you can do that there but per alicia's point you cannot intimidate and threaten justices. my question she wears the fbi? where's the d.o.j. arresting people breaking the law trying to change opinions of supreme court justices? what so tight right now, sean you're not going find them there. let's be very clear the left want to destroy, tear down the establishment. our heritage, our system of government. they don't care they were about results. what you see here is the supreme court being attacked by leftist brady do not hear them complaining about the leaguer at all they don't care their goal is to tear down our institution. what you have here you ask about
2:41 pm
the fbi they go after her parents they are domestic terrorist but you hear jen's sake when a time attacking these activists for basically trying to terrorize and harass supreme court justices, why? the end game is to tear down our institution. that is why the democratic party is the biggest threat to the american system of government right now and that is scary. >> so true, leo. bart want to get your take on this ron johnson was out talk but the firebombing of a pro life office in our home state of wisconsin and they should be charged with terrorism once you take your listen and get your to react on the other side. >> the fbi's definition of a domestic terrorism it says ideologically driven criminal acts including acts of violence of the domestic ideological goal. i think throwing a molotov cocktail into a pro life office
2:42 pm
meets that definition but apparently the fbi director, mayor rowen and the president of the united states does not deny in speaking out against it. >> so far you've january 6 folks going to the capitol that is domestic terror. if you want to firebomb a pro life office in my home state of wisconsin who i know the director of that who is a wonderful lady that is not domestic chair can you make sense of that for me? >> if only i could. and parents showing up to school board meetings are to apparently domestic terrorist as well, chanson none of it makes any sense. i think the message americans have received very clearly is that there are two sites and if you were on one side everything is okay, everything swept under the rug. if you are on the other side they attack you constantly. everything is blown out of proportion and we know which site is which. it's incredibly frustrating for americans to sit back and watch this happen. if you go to the heart of this

one thing that started all of this the person that lead to that draft opinion on roe v wade, why are we not finding that person? they have to know who this person is at this point. justice thomas was exactly right the supreme court is one of our only untarnished institutions left in america, wonder why the fbi isn't jumping in all these other things? it's because unfortunately i think a lot of us do not have a lot of faith in them anymore. the supreme court has stood for roughly 250 years has been incredibly successful because of the deference and respect given to that institution one fell swoop this one individual wiped it all the way it's disgusting i think we all need to find out who that person is. >> equal justice under the law. you do not have that we are careening into a third world style country guys great debate think of right insight.

[inaudible]
2:50 pm
what what started out as a beautiful day in the city of buffalo, has turned into a terrible day and one of tremendous heartbreak for every member of our community. we have suffered a mass shooting with multiple casualties and several people injured. this is the worst nightmare that any community can face. we are hurting and we are seething right now as a community the depth of pain that families are feeling and all of us are feeling right now cannot even be explained. some of us had the opportunity to provide comfort to some of the families. but needless to say there is no
2:51 pm
comfort at this time. we are pleased that a shooter is in custody. the person responsible for the tragic events of today, is in custody. you will get more details in a moment. i want to thank all of the law enforcement agencies at the federal, state, county, and city level. all of the agencies that have responded. buffalo is known as the city of good neighbors nationally and internationally. this is a community where people love each other. the shooter was not from this community. in fact the shooter traveled hours from outside this community to perpetrate this
2:52 pm
