see what you can uncover at ancestry. arthel: president biden is back in washington after first middle east trip as commander in chief and with that challenging visit behind him the president facing political headwinds here at home. his poll numbers are down with approval rating of 40% as compared to president reagan at 42% before midterms and biden agenda took a big blow while abroad. hello, welcome to fox news live, i'm arthel neville, hi, eric.

eric: thank you for joining us in the fox news channel, i'm eric sean. west virginia democrat joe manchin bucking his party as tradition and sinking the crisis of climate change and manchin is a no. he says inflation is way too high to okay more spending. president biden now promising, quote, executive action but manchin's defiance would lead to catastrophic warming by the planet by west virginia senator ignoring the looming crisis threat. meantime the president continues to face criticism of the fist bump with mohammad bin salman on what was achieved in the saudi visit.

aishah hosnie. hey, aishah. aishah: the president has returned home without any solutions and facing criticism from members of his own party for what is happening here and abroad. first off, let's start with the president's build back better agenda in carves thanks to joe manchin, senator tanking any hopes of funding for energy in the package. progressives are mad about this. manchin is willing to pass a smaller package to lower medicines and telling the senate to take the deal and leave climate and energy to him. new fox news poll biden's approval rating at dismal 30%, 25% on inflation.

this as the price of groceries, household items and airfare are all significantly up from just a year ago. >> this year is going to be a referendum on biden. it's pretty simple. midterms are referendum on the president's strategies which are horrible. so this is not going to be about '24. it's going to be about '22. aishah: u.s. intelligence rather holds responsible for the murder of journalist jamal khashoggi. most notably congressman adam schiff was critical of the fist bump but here is senator bernie sanders just this morning. >> you have the leader of that country who was involved with the murder of a washington post journalist. i don't think that that type of government should be rewarded with a visit by the president of the united states. aishah: this comes as the saudis

announced that the kingdom cannot produce much more oil than they already are while throwing water on the administration's claims that it is normalizing relations with israel after it opened up air space to flights in and out of the country and, eric, we are not expecting to see the president at all today, eric. >> all right, aishah, terry estrada, the widow of 911 victim and leads push against the kingdom. terry will join us on that, arthel. arthel: record inflation is hampering economies across europe as well as the u.s. and big part of that has to do with western sanctions on russia. the penalties are not having same effect around russia, russia's currency rubel has

rebounded. we will bring former intelligence officer at hoover institution. john, thanks for joining me. look, you have the u.s. and europe reeling from inflation while russia withstands heavy sanctions. is russia's economy not suffering, what gives? >> no, russia's economy is suffering and will continue to suffer over a period of time. yes, the rubel has held strong but due to capital controls and inflation by russia central bank. the russian rubel is not a tradeable currency right now. you are seeing unemployment rise in russia, russia isn't able to import a lot of goods it needs for manufacturing sector and one of the points structurally going forward enormous brain drain russia's best and brightest diaspora to united states and

asia. it's been damaged in systematic and structural way that will hurt them a couple of generations. arthel: of course, they don't follow the same rules at all. india and other countries continue to go do business with russia, it's watering down or washing out the effects and impacts of u.s. sanctions. is this a game-changer or do i have that wrong? >> no, it undermines western sanctions to a degree because russian are able to import, now getting a lot of hard currency earnings. remember when president biden declared war on the american energy. that's the biggest gift to putin. the russians are beneficiaries as are the saudis. if we are energy independent that would be the best weapon that we can have against the saudis because russia is comment

on that. for example, automobile productions down 80% and companies have left moscow in a big way. joblessness is going up and they are structurally damaged as a result. arthel: you mentioned that the u.s. is not energy independent enough, does that mean that you would promote going to more sustainable use here in the country? >> no, no. no, america needs to produce more of its own oil and gas. the world -- the green fantasy not withstanding. the fact of the matter the world economy runs on oil and gas. that's a fact. we can always try to go green around the edges but the technology is not there yet and to try to force this green agenda on the american public right now is why we have inflation. that's the leftist goal and that's why there's been real effort to put the foot on the boot of american independence

and it's -- >> arthel: john -- >> has to go beg little welfare oliver. arthel: that's not the only reason why president biden had to go to saudi arabia. whoever the president at this point in time would probably have to go to saudi arabia like it or not but let's move onto this, john, you've got china and russia willing to be the wonder twins and activate, conspire, coupled with what we just said earlier that they really don't have any rules to adhere to in the process. how do you stop them? >> well, china really isn't in a position to take up the slack from the russian energy exports that europe is going to leave in the not too distant future. china doesn't have the pipeline infrastructure or oil demand to really do that and china's economy is going into recession itself. india is a different matter. the united states needs india as counterbalance against china. remember, india is a member of

the quad with the united states, japan and australia encounter balancing chinese power and india has long-time relationship with moscow. arthel: yeah, they can't do, they depend on it as well. you are russia relentlessly attacking ukraine without being stopped. how should western allies recalibrate to ease the blowback, the impact on u.s. inflation or is it too simplistic to marry the two? >> yeah, u.s. inflation has nothing really to do with ukraine, that's just around the informations. that's a political stunt by the

biden administration. putin gas hike is ridiculous. what's driving is increase of energy prices as a result of not america -- america's reduced energy production. the trillions of dollars spent chasing the same number of goods during the pandemic, for example, in the so-called infrastructure bill, arthel, there's a section in there which actually prohibits the introduction of robotics and automation at american ports. that's in the so-called infrastructure bill. so the administration is doing everything that it can to make inflation worse while they are complaining about it. in the infrastructure bill it's all environmental project. it's not about really modernizing america's ports and relieving the choke points. arthel: so there's no -- >> there's plenty they can do. arthel: okay, i'm sure there's more to be done because clearly we are still in this

predicament. i think that you're saying bottom line, though, the biden administration should relieve restrictions on the oil companies here to produce more oil, is that what you're saying, more domestic production? >> yeah, absolutely. and it needs to take the power of the regular state off american business and the war on american private enterprise and really want to do something, there's labor laws that can be relaxed when transporting goods. there's all kind of regulatory action the administration could do tomorrow if they so chose. they could end war on america energy companies. if you did that, you would see the economy come back, maybe not fast enough to save him in the election but fast enough to make a difference in 2024 but the hard left and green activists in the democratic party would not permit that to happen. arthel: lots of infighting all over across the board unfortunately jim jordan from the hoover institution.

thanks, john, take care. eric. eric: well, arthel, another murder suspect allegedly yet causing another killing this time happened in minnesota, 6-year-old girl tragically dead after murder suspect tried to get away from police and crashed in car the little girl was riding with her family. it happened in brooklyn center, suburb of knot of minneapolis. the officers were pursuing the suspect identified as hakin mohamed and police try today use tire deflating devices to stop him but that failed so the chase continued and ended be the deadly collusion. mohamed is now in custody and is being treated we are told at a local hospital. arthel: eric, and in california police are investigating reported 150 million-dollar jewelry heist. thieves targeted armored truck that was traveling to bay area

to southern california for jewelry show and one of the jewelers says high inventory was loaded in the brink's last sunday. by monday morning two dozen lockers were done. the fbi is investigating the incident along with the los angeles county sheriff's department. eric: we are learning new details in the horrible murder of former nascar driver bobby east. happened last week. southern california officials say that police did shoot and kill that suspect. he was out on parole while trying to bring him into custody for the murder of east. christina coleman live with the latest developing story, christina. christina: eric the suspect 37 trent william was shot and killed as officers tried to arrest him saturday night and swat team and they identified as

transient who was known to frequent motels in the area and hatted you standing parole warrant. police believe he attacked 3-time auto champ bobby east while east was filling up in westminster south of los angeles. east was found on the ground suffering from a stab wound to the chest. his murder shocking the race world including those who worked closely with him like charles, former pr manager. >> i just wished that we could turn back the clock 3 days and erase this horrible thing from happening and sadly we can be the do that and i'm going to miss bobby, he was a great kid and great guy to be around and i'm going to miss the smile. christina: his smile and his talent. both friends, family and fans are going to miss dearly from nascar driver.

usac bobby east 3 winning performances the u.s. national major rooky in more than a quarter of a century. they say he was phenomenal at national sprint cars and charles says his heart goes out to east family. >> i'm so, so sorry for his parents, bob and janice. they've dealt with a lot in the last ten years, of course, bobby's brother-in-law jason leffler was killed in racing crash in 2013 at the age of 37 and now to lose their son bobby at the stage of 37 is absolutely tragic. arthel: tragic, indeed. so far no word on motive of the murder of bobby east. orange county da's office and westminster are investigating. arthel: eric and christina turning south to the crisis at the border. customs protection has released

latest numbers. agents encountered more than 207,000 migrants. total number of encounters so far this fiscal year topping last year's total with 3 months still to go. matt finn in the border in eagle pass, texas. >> it's 11:15 and our crew has seen two groups of migrants cross into the united states, men, women and children. we all know the drill by now. some of them may be deported under title 42, others may be given notice to appear. some may appear and some we may never see again and also custom and border patrol also announcing to seizure of nearly $700,000 of cocaine in a single bust this week in laredo, texas. agents say a drug-sniffing dog discovered the cocaine that was hidden in a tractor trailer with shipment of air-conditioning parts from mexico. and the u.s. government just released numbers saying cocaine busts were up 25% in june compared to may. also texas governor greg abbott

is continuing to send some of the migrants on a 36-hour bus ride to the nation's capitol, washington, d.c. to send a message to the biden administration that it is responsible for the border crisis. there are some nonprofits helping facilitate the migrants. >> and what we try to do take folks to a place where they can have respite and food because a lot of people just turn up here with their clothes on their back, one thing of food that they are given for 36-hour bus drive and not culturally appropriate food and some of them turn up without shoes. >> also u.s. customs and border patrol has opened massive new facility here in eagle pass, texas primarily to quickly process migrants and u.s. border patrol custody. the facility has capacity of 1,000 people. it has washers and dryers, showers, larged air-conditioned spaces and the new facility replaces a smaller one that

opened here last year, arthel. arthel: matt finn, thank you in eagle pass, texas. eric. eric: house committee in texas is expected to release preliminary report later today about the police response to last month's horrible school massacre in uvalde. the video we are about to show you was obtained by the austin american statesman in kuvtv and edited for shorter clip but the video shows police and some of them talking on their cell phones, standing in the hallways in the trying to stop the shooter. officials say the report will present a clear timeline of what happened when the officers finally entered the school and why they waited inside the hall, you can see for nearly an hour despite many 911 calls from students who were trapped with the gunman in their classroom, reports of them crying and screaming from their wounds. 19 students, two teachers were

slaughtered in that shooting. senior correspondent casey s tegel. casey. eric: nearly 8 weeks since all of the horror that you just described unfolded in the hallways of robb elementary school of what was supposed to be the last week of school. the kids were in the joint fourth grade classroom watching a movie at the time. today members of this community are hoping that they get some more answers after they will get a chance to see officially the surveillance video from a hallway camera what we are showing you again reiterating obtained and released this past week by the austin american statesmen newspaper and kutv. it shows more and more police arriving with gear but waiting which officials say is the opposite of what active shooter training teaches cops.

today's meeting is private between the texas house investigative committee and the victim's family members after that is over we are told to expect the press conference where the preliminary findings will be discussed. >> and also being thorough and accurate. reporter: now there has been great anger and frustration in this community with many saying they have been left in the dark through the whole investigative process and the mayor suggesting a cover-up at state level, 2:30 eastern time is when we expect the meeting to begin. eric. eric: casey, we will have updates on this later on at 4:0e fox news channel, of course. thank you. arthel. arthel: my very first reporting job was at kuvtv and president biden has returned from visit to

eric: the biden administration is defending the president's meeting with mohammad bin salman but you know the families of the victims that were killed by 911, well, they are slamming that sit-down and calling out the president for not addressing the terrorist attacks during the visit amid long-standing suspicion that the saudis knowingly or indirectly helped those hijackers. our next guest wrote a letter to the president, writing, quote, it pains us to say it but you are the first president since the september 11 attacks who has not met with the families and survivors that you just traveled halfway around to fist bump saudi crown prince mohammad bin salman where he had the gal to lecture you about human rights and values. the writer of the letter joins you terry estrada who lost partner tom and was in the north tower and he called terry right after that first plane hit.

terry, you are also the national chair of the 911 families and survivors united for justice against terrorism. our thoughts are with you and all family members, that first plane went over my head that day and we all lived that. your reaction. you said this in the letter, why did you write the letter, what do you want the president to know? >> well, we have been asking since the president took office to meet with him to explain to him how important it is to the 911 accountability, the families, yes, we deserve justice for what happened to our loved ones and the injuries to the survivors but we also need to protect ourselves better going forward and we can't do that if the kingdom is allowed to continue with impunity for the role that they played in 911. he went over there claiming that american values and interest and human rights would be the bedrock of the foundation to reset the relationship so we want today meet with him and explain to him some of the things that the kingdom is heavily involved with that does

show their culpability in 911 like when a state promotes an ideology that encourages hatred and justifies violence against innocent people, that is a human rights violation because that leads to the murder of innocent people. when a nation pumps money into organizations knowing that that organization is giving money to terrorist organizations, that is also a human rights violation because you are now enabling terrorists activities. and if a nation creates a platform for their religious leaders to pursue their agenda knowing that they are also in cahoots with jihadists, well, you are again human rights violations because you are part of supporting and giving aid to jihadists. the saudis are guilty to all of this. this led to acing it is a. they were giving billions of dollars to wahabi and so-called

charities, one was al harami which the united states told them was a front for al-qaeda and they continued funding it but the most egregious thing they did, eric, was when they sent their religious clerks, the wahabi religious clerks and they give them this platform and gave them an entire ministry to go out and promote extremism and it was within that arm of the government, the ministry of islamic affair where is the extremists thrived and they came to america and they set up the support network that was everything that the 19 hijackers needed to carry out the attacks. eric: we know what the saudi kingdom says. they did not provide support to the hijackers. let me read you a statement released last year by the embassy in washington. quote, any allegation that saudi arabia is complicit is false and witness to horror impact on

women and children and saudi arabia understands the pain and hardship of families who lost loved ones on unforgettable day. they remain in thoughts and prayers, previous classification of terrorist related to september 11 attacks only have confirmed the 911's commission finding that saudi arabia had nothing to do. it's lamentable that claims persist. thoughts and prayers, what's your reaction to that? >> oh, my god. everything in the statement was basically a lie. the 28 pages did not exonerate neither 911 commission. but what we do have now is president biden signed executive order last september mandating that our department of justice go back through all of the 911 documents and it is in these fbi reports and these cia reports and clearly in black and white and everything that i just said is true and that was due to the

president's executive order and what we need is for him to take action on what he released. every president has failed us up to present day and this president has an opportunity to write all of those wrongs of past administrations, take the evidence that he released that is in block and white clear as day that the kingdom is 100% involved and the reason 911 happened and if we don't, if we allow them to continue with impunity. if we allow that enemy within the evil ideology, the wahabist to continue flourishing, then we will not be safe going forward and that is the president of this president to make sure americans are safe. eric: and finally, quickly, what message would you have wished that he gave salman, mbs directly about extremism that saudi arabia does support? >> right, so, you know, mbs, he tries to claim that he took care of it because when he first took

office he arrested so many saudi billionaires and extremists and put them in ritz-carlton and even family members. that's not enough because they unleashed it on the world. they set up the platform for it to be in their mosques, for it in america, for it to be in europe and everywhere. they have this responsibility to take back what they've created, you know, the monster that they unleashed on the world and to deal with it everywhere else not just in their country or like i said we won't be safe and you know what the really beautiful part of all of this, eric, it doesn't cost taxpayers a dime for the president to hold them accountable and do the right thing. eric: we hope the president meets with you and the family of victims. you are all, terry, as you know in our hearts. we thank you. we are sorry for what happened to tom and all the others. terry estrada of 911 families.

>> thank you. >> and we will be right back.

arthel: u.s. health officials are concerned that the nation looks like it's heading into another covid wave fueled by a new and highly contagious sub variant of omicron known as ba5. the cdc report it is daily average of new cases and hospitalizations are at their highest point in nearly 4 months when the first omicron wave hit the u.s. >> the thing about ba5 that's disconcerting is that it is able to escape some of the immune protection that you get from prior infection as well as vaccination. arthel: all right, here to weigh in dr. marc siegel fox news contributor and professor of medicine. we know ba5 is contagious, why is it evading covid vaccine?

>> because it has a lot of mutations and remember the vaccines target the spike proteins and the mutations or changes in the spike protein. you know what's not being said if you have a recent vaccine like a booster or recently infected with one of the most recent sub variants of omicron you have a layer of protection and that's why you saw the death count you said 235 deaths not nearly what we saw with delta. arthel: because the variant is infecting those who already had covid or those with two, three, even four vaccinations, most of those cases are mild so you have a lot of people riding it out with now prescription med, i ask you, a, is it a good idea to ride it out or b, are their vitamins that you can take or over the counter meds like aspirin, for example? >> arthel, you always asked me the great questions.

here is the deal on, this i like vitamin d. i think you should make sure that you consider vitamin supplement. i think a baby aspirin is a good idea if you're not on blood thinners because it's high risk of bleeding but most importantly i prescribe a lot of paxlovic and i probably prescribe more of it than is actually recommended because i look -- i can't always tell who is going to have a severe case. so i look for people in high-risk groups, people with underlying diseases and people who are obese and elderly and i give more often than that. arthel: that's the thing, you don't know how your body is going to react to covid if you get it and speaking of paxlovic works for some and not for others, what's your take on why that is the case? doctor: i think it works for most people but in a lot of cases the immune system gets geared up late and so you get a rebound effect. we are seeing a lot more rebound in strains like the ba5 that

you're saying, the answer to that is we are probable any not giving it long enough. i don't like 5 days, i think it should be considered 7 days, many officials have agreed with me on that and i use it a lot for rebound. i will use the second course and it element always works. we may need more of it. arthel: it comes in doses of the 5-day, would you give your patients, you know, like a second box and say just go through two of the doses of the second box so a total of 7 days? >> i don't do that. i would like to do that but under the current fda thing if people are testing positive at the end of the 5 days i will reorder it another 5-day pack and most of the time i have them complete the five days. arthel: got it. what can you tell us, dr. marc about the new vaccines, are they to protect us from ba5 and other variants that might crop up? >> well, you know, the pfizer vaccines that is supposed to come out is the ba1 and that

doesn't offer a lot of protection. there's another one coming out against the ba4 and that one will offer more protection. that will be out in november. the bottom line is, though, arthel, i don't tell my patients to wait because studies out of rockefeller and elsewhere show that you still get a lot of protection even from the old vaccine. so if you haven't had a booster in 2022 or a shot in 2022, i agree with task force, i would give a shot now and not wait. arthel: i've got about 40 seconds for this one. two years plus into the pandemic, now endemic, people have gotten covid more than once, dr. mark. what's the danger of getting covid multiple times? doctor: well, i'm worried about long covid. i worry about it from the older strains from delta but i worry it from reinfection too and people who aren't vaccinated and i worry about people who aren't boosted or people who keep getting it. that's what i'm on the lookout for. are you having problem with

consistent fatigue and breathing and focusing, all of that is on the radar right now and we are studying closely and that's the legacy of this pandemic. arthel: how do you treat that, though, this fatigue from long covid? doctor: well, it's hard to treat it. you treat it with retaining and you treat it with more time off and you treat it with getting people exercising, that helps a lot, by the way, and you also have rehab for breathing issues but we want to avoid that. if you get it we want to treat it with rehabilitation. arthel: dr. mark seigel. arthel: transportation secretary pete buttigieg points out that if you do, you will never have to worry about high gas prices again. the critics, though, are pointing out that electric vehicles typically cost more than hybrids or gas-powered cars. the supporters say electric cars can pay off in the long run. alexandria hoff live in

washington with the latest on the ev's versus the old gas ones. hey, alexandria. alex: secretary pete buttigieg said during interview that the price of electric vehicle needs to come down before most americans can afford one but he added with enthusiasm this, quote, we are actually starting to see on some models the cost come to where even the car payment is a little higher and gas payments lower and you come out ahead. according to piece publish bid "the new york times", quote, electric cars remain much more costly than gasoline counterparts and are out of reach for many buyers even when the fuel savings are factored in. the article went onto explain how sharp rise in electric vehicle purchases has also led to shortages to raw materials needed to make them and provided some production challenges there. here is florida senator rick scott on all of this. >> democrats in washington know the effect the high prices are having and they are celebrating because they are radically progressive campaign against

energy independence is working. but americans are not celebrating. they are struggling. alex: well, so is the electrical grid in texas. just a day after pete buttigieg's comments, received on-screen alert asking them to avoid charging vehicles during peak hours due to plaguing heat wave. state's power grid operators to reduce consumption and raised the question on twitter, imagine texas' grid problems if they went 100% electric vehicles. .while that is not a huge share it is a steep rise from last year and it is a new record high. eric. eric: alexandria, you have to plug the car in, doesn't that mean that you use more electricity, doesn't that mean that they have to make more

electricity and burn more coal and all that? >> that's certainly it and joe made comments andly have more at 1:00 o'clock. eric: okay, we will be looking out for that. arthel: ukrainian president volodymyr zelenksyy urging his people not to fall for russia's scare tactics as putin continues his vicious campaign stepping up attacks on innocent civilians. the latest on that straight ahead.

>> no casualties reported but

significant event as escalations continue across the country. the local mayor says ten explosions were heard in southern port area and attack and odesa, russians claim they hit a store of anticruise missiles. although those troops like the ukrainians are suffering heavy losses in ongoing battle. chief of the british armed forces said this weekend that 50,000 russian troops have been killed or injured since invasion began in late february. in addition an estimated 1700 russian tanks and 4,000 fighting vehicles have been destroyed so far. despite the losses russia's defense minister ordered troops on saturday to intensify their attacks on the front lines as ukraine looks to defend. >> russia is failing in all of those ambitions, russia is a

more diminished nation and it was in the beginning of february and that's what ukraine is seeing. >> previously russian forces have been in what is referred to operational pause slowing attacks in eastern and southern parts of ukraine. that pause appears to be over and the ukrainians are bracing for more months of fighting, eric. eric: all right, trey, thank you. arthel: all right, trey and eric, new warning for beach goers as shark attacks put officials on high alert, we will take you where they have seen multiple attacks in recent weeks. that's straight ahead. ♪ ♪ ♪
