i am surprised by the fact he snuck up while they were playing free bird. they were playing the 1972 version and i'm surprised we haven't kept that friendship going. he put me on stage. >> go to "fox & friends" to register for v.i.p. access for friday. >> we feed you. >> bill: here we go, 9:00 in new york waking up to another record high on gas prices. white house insisting it's not the president's fault. the american people do not sound convinced. show you the numbers to prove that as we say good morning and welcome back to dana perino. >> dana: we went to spain. they were amazing hosts and a wonderful country great to be there. >> bill: happy birthday. how was the trip in a word?

>> dana: incredible. i'm glad to be back with all of you. let me tell you the world over they are amazing and we appreciate you very much. the national average soaring to an all time high of $4.86 a gallon up 25 cents from last week and $2 from a year ago. >> bill: americans say it will be one of the deciding issues how they vote in november and also concerned about the economy and inflation and crime. the president is under water on the big three issues when it comes to your wallet. >> dana: i've been dying to talk about all of this. let's start with peter doocy reporting from the north lawn this morning. hi, peter. >> good morning. welcome back. white house officials aren't just saying they think things are going well. they are saying they think thing are going well because of them. >> i have reporters calling me when delta hit, omicron hit, putin went into ukraine saying is that it? will that derail the recovery? and so far you've seen resilience.

that has a lot to do with the strength of the american recovery act. >> as poll numbers plummet, the american rescue plan is what white house officials hope to remind mid-term voters of. all those $1400 checks with no questions asked at the time. that's something that many economists assess contributed to the current inflation. but the white house disputes that writing in a new memo it is not plausible that disruptions in global energy and food markets are the result of the american rescue plan but bloomberg is reporting in a new book about janet yellen by the biographer, the treasury secretary privately told the president to make the rescue plan smaller to avoid inflation. that is an accusation serious enough that yellen put out a statement, quote, i never urged adoption of a smaller american rescue plan package. president biden says to lower prices now he wants to trust the fed to raise rates and

reduce the deficit. that's a plan that has republicans scratching their heads. >> the president has come out with his plan to fight inflation. it is not a plan. it is an embarrassment. if a high school kid turned it in as an economics paper they would get a d minus. >> white house officials hope to improving their marks. they booked the president an in studio interview with jimmie kimmel when the president heads to california for a summit there. >> dana: stay tuned for that later. >> bill: marc thiessen, all the way down to the bottom crime is only 38%. these are not good numbers in any category. >> jimmie kimmel will get to the bottom of all this i'm

sure, absolutely. the idea that -- americans see through all the rhetoric coming out of the white house. they know that we had 40-year high inflation before the war in ukraine. they know that we had reached the highest 30-year-on-year increases in gas prices before the war in ukraine. when joe biden took office gas was $2.46 a gallon. by october it was $3.50. that's long before the war in ukraine. as for inflation, look, you don't have to take my word for it that the american -- quote unquote american rescue plan unleashed this. listen to the democratic economists. larry summers february of 2021 warned if he passed a 1.9 trillion social spending bill disguised as covid relief it will unleash inflation. steve ratner, obama economic advisor say biden put too much government money in people's pockets and why we have this

inflation. it is economics 101. americans are smart enough to sight. >> dana: two of the secretaries of the president's cabinet on who is to blame. >> you hear the oil executives on the record talking about how they won't increase production. why would they? they're doing great now. >> it is worth noting that gas prices are up $1.40 a gallon since putin moved troops into ukraine. >> dana: they've been saying the same thing since before i left for spain which feels like a year ago. they are saying the same thing. when the secretary says it is worth noting. we can note that, fine. the american people are then what? there is never in the history of the world been a communications tactic that solved a policy problem. >> yeah. look, gas rose as i told you $1.00 before the war in ukraine.

now it's risen another $1.40. why? the pre-war gas increase in prices was joe biden's fault because it's the war on fossil fuels. now the war in ukraine. why did vladimir putin invade ukraine? because he thought biden was weak. it was after the withdrawal of afghanistan that projected weakness on the world. if war on fossil fuels, the second part isn't the putin price hike it's the failure to enforce our strong foreign policy around the world which led to a catastrophic war that could have been deferred if we in america had been strong. >> bill: you were writing about this. the potential for black-outs on electricity. not in california but in the midwest this summer? i find that extraordinary. and to ease the pain of inflation, there is a consideration easing up on the tariffs placed on the chinese.

headline you u.s. commerce chief sees some tariffs as very effective. they have been effective. there is national debate. remember the trump administration had a tough time getting it going and it's been in place. will the administration lift the foot off the chinese tariffs and to what end? >> so first on the black-outs. first we have high gas prices. now we'll have black-outs. next will be locusts. we'll have nationwide black-outs this summer because coal plants are shutting down rather than investing in upgrades because of the biden war on fossil fuels. we'll be like north korea where we don't have enough energy to power our homes. china tariffs shows how weakness at home leads to weakness on the world stage. we didn't put sanctions on russia oil and gas because we were afraid of high gass prices.

isolating the maduro regime for years but not begging them to produce oil. now he is begging saudi arabia for oil and now in order to deal with inflation we'll lift tariffs when we're weak at home and economy is weak it projects weakness on the world and puts america in danger and what we're seeing with the biden administration. >> dana: thank you. fox news alert now. u.s. and south korea say they fired eight surface to surface missiles today after the north launched ballistic missiles on sunday. the largest single day test so far. alex hogan is live in london and more to tell us >> the u.s. and south korea, militaries in this joint exercise fired eight ballistic missiles into the sea taking place today. this is a show of force in retaliation of recent activities we've seen at the hands of north korea.

today's exercise included eight army tactical missiles. one of which was from the u.s. the seven remaining were south korean. he has promised to take a more stern response to north korea. he announced the country would make fundamental and practical security capabilities in response to its neighbor's growing nuclear potential. yesterday on sunday the north fired eight short rang missiles from four different locations over the course of a half hour. this is especially important because it appears to be a new daily record. it also marks the country's 18th weapons test since the start of this year. now one of which was the country's first intercontinental ballistic missile launch in half a decade. in recent months north korea has increased the frequency of its weapons test, alarming nearby countries. japan's defense minister called the recent launches an act of

provocation. during his trip to asia, u.s. president joe biden vowed to support the nearby allies against the nuclear threat of north korea. north korea typically condemns any joint military exercise between the u.s. and south korea. we have not heard any response from north korea concerning this missile launches today. we have not received any word, at least not yet. >> dana: thank you, appreciate it. >> the system has become a joke. you see the handcuffs put on the justice system instead of handcuffs being put on criminals. >> bill: outrage after the california teen who struck this mother and her baby let off a hook with a slap on the wrist. the criminal past of the driver has many questioning why he was even in the road driving that car. >> dana: a former wisconsin judge killed in his ohm home by a gunman no stranger to the justice system. investigators fear the judge wasn't his only target. the hit list that will shock

>> dana: george gascon under new fire over the charges in a hit and run case last summer. the video is shocking. in it you see the car barreling into a mother and her child. knocking her off her feet. the driver is a teen who had prior arrests. he was sentenced to five months in juvenile camp. bill melugin has more on this growing frustration and controversy surrounding gascon. >> good morning to you. l.a. d.a. george gascon is getting blasted over the handling of the case which ended with a juvenile sentenced

to just five months in camp after he ran over a mom and her baby and fled the scene. we have learned it was not his first offense. look at the video. all caught on security tape. venice, california last august. the mom walks with her baby in the stroller. she gets slammed into by a juvenile, a 16-year-old driver in a stolen car who plows into them. she gets launched in the air and a good samaritan slammed into the juvenile driver trying to flee the scene. mult it law enforces tell me that juvenile driver was on felony probation at the time of the hit and run with a previous conviction for felony poisoning after spiking a girl's drink at a high school in 2019. despite the teen's criminal record gascon's administration didn't charge him with attempted murder. they filed two lesser felony charges which he pleaded guilty to. in a statement to foox news the

sentence was an appropriate resolution is what gascon's office said. the decisions were based on the facts and the law. the sheriff's department agreed with the felony charges that were filed. we stand by the purpose of the juvenile system to rehabilitate young people. but l.a. county sheriff immediately pushed back saying quote the lada office we leased a statement claiming that we were okay with the lightweight sentencing in this brutal venice hit and run. wefrp never consulted. we would never be okay with this sentencing. victims matter. gascon's office then september us a follow-up email admitting the sheriff's department was never involved in the case. and they would have to quote correct their statement. now late last night i spoke to the mother who was run over. she had minor injuries.

her baby was okay but she is absolutely furious about the way this case was handled telling me in part quote someone with a criminal record trying to kill me and my son. george gascon thinks that five months of camp is a sufficient punishment. gascon's office took the time to falsely comment on my case but taken no time to ask how we're doing. that's because he doesn't care. gascon and his staff are highlighting their incompetence and their complete disregard for victims. guys, i did circle back with gascon's office to ask them do they still stand by their statement this case was an appropriate resolution? i'm still waiting on a response to them. >> dana: keep us posted in l.a. >> bill: tomorrow's primary day in seven states. some of the key races we're watching now. california up the coast in san francisco. bodine under fire as the d.a. in san francisco because of the issues they're having in that town.

a look. 2021 to 2022, this is all in the wrong direction. the wrong trend. more assaults, more theft, more total crime is the issue on the ballot for san francisco on crime. down the coast in bill's city of los angeles an interesting race. caruso has come out of nowhere against karen bass who is running for l.a. mayor. california they have oh jungle primary. the top two vote getters whether they're republicans or democrats or two republicans or two democrats. the top two will face off in november. if you don't get to 50%. it looks like where the case is going. l.a. similar story on the issues. homelessness and crime and public safety 34% is what is driving some of the voters there in los angeles. the crime same in san francisco. robberies up, aggravated assault, total crime again all going in the wrong direction in

los angeles. on the congressional ballot a lot of targets for republicans come november. this is one of the prime targets. this is congressional district 3 in iowa, cindy axne tough district here. redistricted a little bit. des moines the capital city but took in more rural voters, too. republicans think they have a better chance of taking this seat. headed up by zach nunn and endorsement by mike pompeo. none leads in the money race in that particular election. look how close this was, dana. axne won by more than a point last year. in a district where donald trump beat joe biden by .210 in the same area. something we watch. if you talk to republicans in washington, which we have. remember the meeting we had some time ago what they'll say

is they are targeting anywhere between 55 and 50 districts. some of them were optimist particulars trending toward the 50 number. rational ones are saying 35 is more realistic. >> dana: there aren't that many competitive districts. there will be more especially in new york this year. these numbers might change a little bit but looks like the republicans will be taking the house. steve scalise, congressman from louisiana was on "fox news sunday" talking about how crime fits into this calculation. >> if you look at what happened in those cities you see a lot of things with the defund the police movement. letting people out. no cash bail. making it easier for people to commit crimes. look at the smash and grab crimes. do you think it will end if they think they can get away from crime? >> dana: you can't get away from getting away from crime. gun control isn't the crime

that we see in the hit and run that bill melugin reported on. >> bill: watch how the elections go. what we showed you on the map is what people care about in those cities and they aren't happy with the direction of it. >> dana: speaking of that. watch this.

not good. >> dana: 13 mass shootings across the country over the weekend including in philadelphia. chattanooga, tennessee, phoenix. 17 people were killed. 69 others injured in mass shootings this past weekend. we have a round-up for us. >> that's right. a weekend of gun violence all across the country in big cities and small cities. out in philadelphia 14 people were shot on a busy night out. hundreds of people in the streets. philadelphia police believe it started when two guys got into a fist fight caught on camera. watch. [gunfire] >> you can hear the dozens of gunshots ringing out there. this surveillance video showing the chaos as people tried to take cover on south street in philly. three people killed in the shooting. those people that were shot

range in ages of 17 to 69 years old. police found five guns at the crime scene and say multiple gunmen opened fire into the busy crowd when a philly police officer pulled out his gun and tried the take down one of those shooters. >> one of the officers observing an active shooter discharged at that individual. it was an active shooter. it is unclear at this time whether that individual was struck or not. >> philadelphia police one of several law enforcement agencies working deadly shooting cases over the weekend. they're very busy. here on the map you can see 11 cities listed had at least four people shot, one killed in the same incident. police in chattanooga, tennessee investigating the shooting that left three people dead. more than a dozen shot. others were struck by a car trying to flee the scene. the mayor of chattanooga says

his team is looking to add a gun violence coordinator to help residents feel more safe. >> we'll be convening area judges and thought leaders to talk about what more we can do to address the problem. >> at this time no arrests have been made in either case. philadelphia police is offering a $20,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest. dana. >> dana: we'll talk to tim kelly, the mayor of chattanooga. >> bill: capitol hill in the wake of the shooting in uvalde, texas. senator pat toomey the-out going senator in pennsylvania, one of the key senators involved in those negotiations. nice to see you, senator. thank you for your time today. >> good morning, bill. >> bill: a few things here. i see a quote about growing momentum. i saw what you said on cbs on sunday. closer than we've been since i've been in the senate going back 12 years.

will you produce something here? >> cautiously, bill. this is a big challenge. one thing i want to be clear about, you know. sometimes we lump all of these killings into one category when in fact they are very different in their nature. some of these are gangs fighting each other over turf in their respective drugs businesses. in other cases, of course, it's these horrific, sensational cases of a deranged young man who goes in and mows down innocent civilians. these are very different circumstances. what i'm trying to do is see if we can have common sense methods for the dangerous people to get firearms while protecting the constitutional second amendment rights of law-abiding citizens. it's a tough, narrow path. >> bill: give me what you would

consider common sense solutions. >> for one, i have long believed that we could expand background checks to include all commercial sales. sales at gun shows and advertised over the internet, sales that are in a sense commercial in nature and the seller doesn't know the buyer. a background check makes sense. they can be done very quickly. most firearm purchases do require background checks today. we could expand it to all commercial sales. that would make sense. i think making it a federal offense to engage in trafficking of guns, knowingly purchasing guns for someone who is legally not permitted to buy a gun and handing it over to that person. that is illegal. that should be prosecuted. i think we could do more to make schools more secure. we could do things in the mental health space and maybe encourage states to have red flag laws so that there would be a way to address someone who is about to go off the rails.

these are the kinds of things that are under discussion. >> bill: okay. if you expanded your criminal background checks sandy hook could have still happened. if you expand criminal background checks what happened in uvalde, texas, still could have happened. >> let me just -- sorry to interrupt. let me be clear. there is no panacea or one thing that will prevent mass killings. all we can hope for in my view is on the margins make it more difficult for someone who is dangerously mentally ill or violent criminal to buy a firearm and hope there is intervention in the meantime. determined criminal will be able to eventually get a gun. i understand that. that doesn't mean there is nothing we can do to make it harder for that person to get a gun. >> bill: encourage states to set up red flag laws. they're using it in florida. some other states as well. improving school safety you would probably get agreement on that. senator chris murphy, the democrat is part of these

discussions said this over the weekend about keeping the president out of it. >> i think the senate needs to do this ourselves. i have talked to the white house every day since these negotiations began but right now the senate needs to handle these negotiations. >> bill: what he said last week raise the age from 18 to 21. do you believe by the end of this week, it's the time frame you've been given to put up or shut up for lack of a better phrase that you will be able to put something forward, senator? >> it's very hard to say, bill. i doubt very much we'll have a vote by the end of the week but it is possible that we would have a framework that could lead to specific legislation. that is still an ambitious timetable. but it's very hard to predict how quickly it will come together. >> bill: thank you for coming on. we'll stay in touch with you throughout the week. >> dana: following the news while i was away one of the things that struck me was peggy

noonan's piece saturday. i fear as a people we're becoming increasingly unlovable. my god, i have never seen a country so in need of a hero. such a striking last sentence and you talk about when people say do you think the country is on the right track or wrong track? the vast majority of people believe it's on the wrong track perhaps for different reasons. this idea of what can he merge as a leader that can get us out of this and we'll see how that develops. also disturbing trend in washington state. get this, drivers aren't stopping for cops when asked to pull over. plus president biden will make a late night tv appearance this week as his approval rating keeps dropping. is laughter the best medicine ahead of the mid-terms. jimmy failla is next. the unknown is not empty.

burglar eye case. alleged gunman had a hit list of targets including michigan governor and senate minority leader mitch mcconnell. jonathan turley is a law professor and fox news contributor. this is happening unfortunately more frequently. we recently had judge cialis on, the judge in new jersey whose son opened the door to a gunman who shot him and killed her son, seriously injured her husband and she has been on the fight to try to make sure that judges could be protected. what do you know about this case here? >> this is a serious concern. i just got back from speaking to a group of judges and lawyers. this was the primary issue raised at the conference how to protect judges. you have protestors showing up at the houses of justices. you have threats being made. and most of these are not lethal. obviously these protestors are

not there to physically harm these jurists but it is making judges more and more concerned about themselves and their family when their houses are targeted. and this is the really the most extreme concern of all, that a former party or defendant is going to search you out and mete out his own form of retribution. we have to really look at this as a country. we have to look at it in terms of protecting judges and justices, but we also have to look at it in terms of contributing to the rage that now characterizes our politics. >> dana: when you were at that conference i'm curious about this. they were talking about the need. did they have any suggestions for the how? >> no. we talked a lot about that. there are obviously constitutional protections. people are allowed to protest. there is a federal law that makes it a crime to do so if

you are trying to influence a pending case or matter. that law is not as easy to apply as people have suggested because there are counter veiling constitutional values here. so this is a difficult question for us. what i think we all agreed upon is the need for state and federal governments to ramp up the level of security that can be made available to judges and also to monitor some of these threats more quickly and completely. >> dana: jump on top of them. i wanted to ask you about this. two democrats had known the clintons very well, doug shown and andrew stein have written that hillary's roles in the russia smear the sussman trial that was decided last week provides more evidence that she personally directed the effort and i wonder what you've heard since then. i was trying to follow the news. seems to me that even though that verdict didn't turn out

the way the prosecutors may have wanted the news that hillary clinton herself was basically behind it saying yeah, go ahead, if it comes from the top, it comes from the top. the buck stops with her. what do you make of all that? >> well unfortunately many people in the united states got even less information than you received in spain. there was the usual news blackout on a lot of these details. but what we now know because of john durham's investigation is the striking similarity between what happened with the steele dossier and what happened with what's called the alfa bank scandal. in both cases you had lawyers involved at this firm perkins coie. it hid the funding of the steele dossier while its associates pushed these allegations into the f.b.i. and

the c.i.a. the same pattern was seen with alfa bank and came out in the trial that hillary clinton personally green lighted getting this allegation out, even though their own researchers said we may be mocked for this. smart people will see through this. well, they did the same thing. it went to the f.b.i., the media and they found very receptive people waiting for it. >> dana: incredible news out of that. thank you. fox news alert top of the hour, topping the news at least 69 people injured, 17 killed in 13 separate mass shootings this weekend including 15 shot in philadelphia, three of those fatally. all this as the senate tries to get agreement on new gun legislation. national gas prices double under president biden rising from $2.39 to his first day in office to $4.86 today. russia launching missiles against kyiv for the first time

huge numbers of migrants continue to come across the u.s./mexico border. thanks to policies in mexico and ruthless cartels who are making money and still at work. >> the biden administration should start off by reimplementing the trump immigration policies that were successful in securing the border at the end of the trump administration by disincentivizing this illegal migration. biden needs to get tough against the mexican government that's complicit in cooperating with the cartels to facilitate these growing migrant caravans. >> bill: griff jenkins back at it rio grande valley along with the dps in texas. what's it like, griff? let's begin a new hour. >> good morning, bill. breaking just now moments ago i got a message. you mentioned the caravan in the southern part of mexico. the caravan organizer sent me a message saying he believes they

are 9500 strong and this caravan stretches 5 1/2 kilometers long as they make their way. he said they were met initially by about 100 to 150 mexican officials and immigration police but they let them pass freely. so it is on its way here. but as you mentioned they're already overwhelmed with numbers here on the rio valley. there have been over 9,000 apprehensions, 645 gotaways since i've been here. before the sun came up this morning four migrants were caught running. this arrest by texas dps. i want to bring you in, lieutenant. the runners you saw this morning, who were they and how frequent is that happening? >> this morning you got to see firsthand what we talk about all the time. the gotaways. single adults. we're chasing out these

individuals trying to get away. they are not your asylum seekers but running from troopers and border patrol agents and we know the four individuals from mexico. one a young adult 22 years old could have been the guide and what we know about him. goes to show you the intent and how desperate they are trying to get away from law enforcement. you were with us jumping fences, running through different properties and able to apprehend them with the help from customs and border protection from air support. border patrol, state troopers and national guardsmen. >> another group we saw on cameras hidden and they were able to apprehend that group as well standing next to the wall. mexico is on the other side. the wall really is a deterrent to move migrants to other areas where we were able to locate them. explain the significance and how you might need it if the caravan numbers are on the other side of the border. >> a border wall is vital to

border security. i talked about that numerous times. where you can plug in the gaps either with technology, national guardsman or law enforcement. it is vital to what we knowed now. the caravans making their way to the u.s. how vital it is to have the infrastructure in place. with the border resources from -- border patrol. >> cartels. since i've been here members of congress came down and told them they're making $32 million a day moving people. how concerned are you about the control the cartels have on this border? >> very concerning. it empowers them even more. i reported this last year. they were making well over $100 million a week on human smuggling. the number increases based on the number of people coming across and how they are able to

broaden their interprice as far as human smuggling. it will continue to get worse. these cartels are profiting off these individuals and the more people across the more money they make and the more powerful they become. >> cartel gets richer when title 42 gets ended? >> the numbers continue to increase every month. record month after record month. it will get much worse based on what we're seeing new and the cartels will continue to exploit that. zbla thank >> thank you very much. that's what's happening on the ground. the concern about not only the caravan and those numbers. if title 42 lifted it would be more overwhelming. agents here from border patrol to dps doing the best they can with what they have to work with. >> bill: breaking news. at the moment some of the summit of the americas was

going to take place. getting word out of mexican city, the mexican president will not attend the summit of the americas in l.a. which is a blow to the white house, blow to the president. apparently the mexican president wanted to bring some leaders from central and south america. the witness did not want to have there or meet with. how do you hold the summit of the americans without the president of mexico. >> dana: i can understand not wanting to meet with the leader of venezuela. wasn't it four weeks ago the white house was talking about letting venezuela off the hook so that they would produce more oil? >> bill: yeah. >> dana: i understand the state department's position. >> he wanted to bring venezuela, cuba and nicaragua to that summit. >> dana: that's not happening. leverage is misplaced. >> bill: we'll see how the summit goes. >> dana: pennsylvania senate race featuring two different candidates with vastly different personalities and

pole or opposites. celebrity dr. oz republican candidate facing john fetterman, a far left radical by republicans. let's bring in a national journalist. that's the case. the republicans will say that. there is another problem john fetterman has and one of his health. we wish him well but the practical realities of this situation, including the fact he is the lieutenant governor of pennsylvania and hid a health condition from the people of pennsylvania seems to me disqualifying. >> this is a remarkable match-up because you have dr. oz who is a nationally renowned celebrity cardiologist and you have fetterman who has a very serious heart condition that was just disclosed and suffered a stroke right before the primary. health will be a major issue in this campaign. there are a lot of democrats i have talked to in the last week are worried about his health and worried he hasn't come out in public. he said he will recover and

back on the campaign trail but not said anything publicly. even democrats close with him have been texting with him and not talking to him on the phone not hearing his voice. raising a lot of anxiety about pennsylvania democrats that he is ready to go for the big senate race. >> bill: his statement. about as much as he said about it, too, on screen. the stroke i suffered on may 13 didn't come out of nowhere. like so many others in so many men in particular i avoided going to the doctor even though i knew i didn't feel well. as a result of almost died. that's a heck of a thing to put out now. >> it's pretty scary and we all hope he gets well, gets to 100% because this is no joke. it's a very serious health problem he is dealing with. i think the political trajectory is why wasn't he more transparent from the outset? it sounded at the very beginning that this was a very mild stroke that he would be back to the campaign trail in

short order. he still hasn't been given the green light from his doctors to get out and campaign and do what you would expect from a big-time senate nominee. the big question is when will he get back to the campaign trail and what is his health condition going to be like in the long term? >> dana: on the republican side i know mccormick conceded and dr. oz will be the nominee. what have you heard about republicans in pennsylvania? have they decided to all get together and get behind oz and push for the open senate seat? >> it is very interesting, dr. oz won by the most narrow margin in the primary. he benefits certainly from the political environment across the country including in pennsylvania, which is very favorable to the republican party right now. i think the big question is does he have a good bedside manner on the campaign trail. is he the dr. oz we saw on tv for so many years? a natural campaigner? or is being a celebrity a disadvantage in a big-time

senate race? i know the democrats have been trying to run ads and attacks against dr. az for being more of a celebrity than being a serious senate candidate. can he make that evolution effectively? >> bill: you think pennsylvania is the most important state to win on that battleground map. if democrats hold it they stand a fighting chance of keeping the senate, josh. >> no doubt about it. if there is one state i'm watching on election night for the senate it is pennsylvania. if democrats can win, they will be the underdogs to start out. if they win it would give them a path to hold the senate. if dr. oz wins it is hard to see how democrats hold that majority. >> bill: 57-44 enthusiasm gap favors republicans. 13 point spread five months out. >> dana: in a state that trump won quite handily. josh, thank you so much. good to see you. >> the bad policies this administration is doing makes me very concerned about the

possibility of a slowdown or a turndown or even a full blown recession. >> bill: art laffer former reagan economist. the worst may be yet to come. edward lawrence. how are they backing this up here? >> what's interesting, bill, the president is actually brushing off some of the criticism from business leaders like big names we're talking about jeff bezos, jamie diamond and elon musk concerned about the economy. he said he was a super bad feeling of the economy. he walked that back over the weekend in a tweet saying the head count will go up but salaried employees will remain flat. in miss economic address on friday president biden says he is doing everything he can to lower the cost of inflation. but to do that congress must act and pass more spending.

many economists are saying government spending is a big part of the 8.3% inflation we have. in fact, a former economic advisor to president obama said if people would voluntarily cut back on spending it would help president biden. >> the accusations how much did the stimulus spending contribute is really about did we give people too much money in their pockets? they are in some of the best financial shape they've ever been. demand is outstripping supply a little bit. if people were to pull back voluntarily the fed has less work to do. >> the effect of inflation is undeniable. one retiree who talked to fox says she plans to travel the world and has to go back to work now because of inflation. >> i retired and started volunteering for goodwill, the state of arizona, you know, food kitchens and things like that. i'm not at liberty again to pay

for travel back and forth to volunteer when i'm not getting paid. i need some compensation now. >> inflation really biting. ceos in europe having the same warnings about the global economy as well as possible recession. >> bill: edward lawrence from the white house today. nice to see you. thanks. 14 past. ] gunfire] >> dana: gunfire on the streets of philadelphia one of several deadly shootings this weekend. we'll hear from a mayor urging congress to act. >> bill: the sentencing of a hit and run driver running into a mother and baby. how the controversial prosecutor is now reversing course on a claim. >> dana: the moment of truth for another progressive d.a. will soft on crime policies cost him his job? we're about to find that out.

the fact of the matter is we've got communities in chattanooga that have been grindingly poor for generations and generations and that is the root cause of the problem and my administration is focused on addressing that end of the problem as well. chief murphy is now getting her feet under her desk and command staff in order. i'm committed to funding the department for anything and everything it needs to combat the problem here. >> you will need the local help but think congress should pass a law. any law you think congress can pass that would have prevented these killings? >> i hope so. this is not an either/or thing. it is a both/and thing. this is not the time for place for a partisan food fight. this is a time where we need to come together and find out what we can agree on at the federal level to help prevent this sort of thing. there are tens of millions more guns on our streets than before the pandemic and i don't know about you but i trust law

well. if you give people an incentive to commit more crimes they will commit more crimes. that's what we're seeing in policies across the country. even underlying agenda, it is justified by this philosophy that says you know what? your crime is legitimate in some ways because that's the core claim of the defund the police, blm movement. clear the jails movement is the system is so rigged. the system is so flawed. so much systemic racism in the united states that that justifies even psychologically in the mind of criminal to say not only will i get away with it, i'm justified in doing it because i'm sticking it back to the system. that's the under-discussed part of what is driving this wave of crime we've seen across the cities. not just l.a. or san francisco. it is cities across the country. >> dana: speaking of confident the "wall street journal" headquarters. recalling san francisco's district attorney would do a lot to restore order and said california is more concerned with renewable energy, electric car subsidies and paper straw

mandates than doing anything about crime, homelessness or -- recalling boudine might be a first step toward change. what do you anticipates? >> they're an uphill in california broadly speaking. this is a lose/lose for the democrats. a lot of people forget this is not a republican-led effort. it is led by a former chair of the san francisco democratic party. so in the event the recall succeeds i think that's an indictment of someone like boudine. if it fails it is actually showing this is a party that has been taken over by a cancerous wing that's at the far left end of the spectrum. early signs suggest it has more momentum than most. i hope it spawns a conversation in cities across the country. in the chicagos and washington, d.c.s of the world that have seen the crime spikes. i think even the people who

launched this recall. i know it's the former chair of the democratic party of san francisco but they put a spotlight on an issue that people were afraid to talk about two years ago. >> bill: it is not just crime. it is standard of living. what is going on in your community? read the "wall street journal" today about daily life around his neighborhood and his -- the office where he works. it is a startling thing. >> that's right. we live in this culture where our public servants have forgotten that they are not kings. they're servants to the public. >> dana: they have to live within it, too. >> they don't. they're insulated in a way. >> dana: i don't know. i can't imagine they live in a better place than andy. at some point for lack of a better word the revolution comes from within. but it is the leadership. if you change the leadership the people will be able to hopefully change things. >> you need leadership tied to

russian artillery that out rages them. there was a delay in getting them to them but they're coming. i don't think it will take as much time to train as people think given folks i've spoke to about this. but this is going to be much needed by the ukrainians as they enter this phase where they want to start conducting more counter offensive operations and reduce the russian artillery so they can make some progress and take some territory back they've lost. you can see some beginning signs of that, bill. >> bill: general, why hit kyiv again? what was the strategy behind that? >> i think it's just a reminder it's the capital city. it's been normal there for about a month. they certainly targeted i don't think of any military value they're trying to claim they were taking down tank repair facilities but it was a train

repair facility that got hit. these were air/land cruise missiles that are precision weapons that the russians have. it is all about trying to force the west not to continue to provide the advance weapons systems and also i think what putin is hoping for is ukraine fatigue, bill. where the west do not enforce the sanctions to the degree they began with. they don't provide the arms and ammunition as time drags on. the international media is not covering the story like it used to be covered although the fighting is very intense inside of ukraine certainly. and he is counting on that to take place and he is keeping the pressure on to reduce country commitments to ukraine. that's what this is about. >> bill: today marks 78 years since the invasion of western europe, d-day. what should we remember on this

day? what should we think about? >> well, i think the scale of it always grabs our attention. 156,000 troops involved, 11,000 airplanes, 2500 involved alone in the airborne operation the night prior. 7,000 ships involved in this to include the landing craft and then certainly the number of casualties over 8,000 american casualties here taken place not to count the other allies. but then the second thing is the success of it. i mean, they built up their forces in england for two years. it was no strategic surprise. but the americans, led by general eisenhower deceived them when the location was and when we would do it.

they achieved both. they built an army that didn't exist across from the most likely place we would conduct the invasion. and they built that army up on the east side of england and put general patton in charge of an amy that didn't exist with mock tanks and plywood vehicles and that existed for some time with radio operations being conducted in those units every day. units that did not exist. remarkable success in terms of attackty call surprise. the third thing is the troops themselves. most of these troops had not been in combat and their perseverance and determination that day sick as a dog being in the landing craft and facing down heavy machine gun and artillery fire and keep moving towards the beach and moving across the beach, keep moving inland. it is a remarkable story of u.s. and allied determination and incredible success story. >> bill: amen to that.

this time last year. now it's $130 a ton. it put a shock in electricity prices. the government now estimating the cost of electricity has gone up between 77 and 233% year-over-year. and curiously enough the use of coal may have actually helped keep those prices a little bit lower than they would have been. listen. >> there has been a surge in the price of electricity. it's mostly been due to the spike in natural gas. coal, because it is sold long term, those utilities have colon site and using the coal that they have stockpiled as the shock absorber to try to keep some of the pricing down. >> the prices will be up next time they need to buy. this statistic is with regard to the retirements of coal plants sometimes without a lot

of backup. between 2015 and 2020 each year we retired 11 gig watts of power. 700,000 homes per gig watt. last year coal was used. this year we'll shut down more coal-fired electricity generation and some people don't think we have new supplies in the form of green energy to make up for the loss. i guess we'll see this hot summer. >> dana: experimenting with your energy while going through it is not a good idea. thank you very much. there is that to watch for. before we go. >> bill: before we go. >> dana: you want to say something? >> bill: yes, i do. ♪♪♪ >> dana: that is my friend. he went on the trip with us. we were on a ranch and we made
