a new survey revealing the states that have the most spoiled dogs. topping the list is no surprise, new york. for more than 40% of people say they have spent more money on their dog than their significant other. i didn't know that was a statistic. new york, california, washington, pennsylvania, new jersey. i have lived in many of -- all those places except for pennsylvania. it is true. >> bill: you are a good dog mom. >> dana: pretty good. you know who else is guilty, dagen mcdowell and she is in for harris faulkner. >> medical expenses for our dogs. the fox news alert only 78 days until voters head to the polls. yet another survey shows americans are not satisfied with the way things are going in this country. at stake, of course, majorities in the house and senate. this is "the faulkner focus". i'm dagen mcdowell in for harris, a new nbc news poll shows the level of frustration with the state of this country,

3/4 of voters say it is currently on the wrong track. democrats control the house, senate and white house. voters also not optimistic things will get better. staring down 40-year high inflation, open borders, raging crime. nearly 60% say our best years are behind us. republicans calling on americans to vote with their pocket books and their security in mind. >> they are talking about not being able to afford putting food on the table, putting gas in their trucks. americans want security and safety. democrats are not delivering that. >> this is about the lack of leadership coming from the white house and washington >> whether it's crime at their front door, invasion on the southern border or sky high inflation thanks to the economic policies of the biden regime they know exactly what time it is. >> former utah congressman jason chaffetz in "focus." peter doocy live in delaware

where the president is vacationing. peter. >> and one of the main things white house officials keep bragging about is the cost of gas coming down. and they're right. it has. but now white house officials are out saying that may not last very long. >> opens up significantly after covid, more pressure on demand, more pressure on demand means upward pressure on prices. we're watching what happens globally. we're doing everything possible to try to stabilize supply and demand to keep those prices coming down. >> more possible trouble for the biden team, in a poll only 26% of those surveyed by nbc news say the inflation reduction act will make things better for them. >> joe biden's america, only in joe biden's america is the

solution to an inflation-induced spending crisis more spending. the way to fix inflation is to lower taxes, to repair our supply chains and produce more energy to lower prices. >> there are some democrats who say they wish this 740 billion climate and tax code bill was bigger. >> i don't think it fell short at all except when you compare it to the original build back better that was three or four times the size but it is still historic. >> we don't know if we'll lay eyes on president biden here at the beach today. we know he plans to stay on vacation through at least wednesday. >> thank you so much. peter doocy in delaware. americans are so dissatisfied that they are willing to do something about it. 61% of voters from that same

nbc poll say there is an issue so upsetting to them they would carry around a protest sign for a day. this is on the right and left. the science would be different. what does it say to you? >> enthusiasm wins elections and look, as you pointed out, democrats have the house and senate and presidency and the country is going in the wrong direction. pretty hard for democrats to make the case it's putin's fault or republicans' fault. if you want different results you have to elect different people. not good for the establishment democrats. inflation is going the wrong direction. immigration is going the wrong direction, crime is going the wrong direct. foreign policy isn't going well. they stug -- struggle to find one single issue. they may talk about the roe v. wade decision and those people are already voting for

democrats anyway. >> biden's approval rating is stuck at about 40%. his net approval -- he has net disapproval from august 20th of last year during the afghanistan pull-out. they might crow about gas prices being off of $5 a gallon but still up nationwide 74 cents a gallon from a year ago. >> everything about joe biden really looks, feels and smells like jimmy carter. inflation is bad, malaise in the country. less optimism. military is waning is. the lesson is of jimmy carter. kamala harris is non-existence and not a good communicator. they want to tout this inflation reduction act but

everybody knows it has nothing to do with reducing inflation. their core and number one issue. if it was so great they would be on the road touting it. instead joe biden is getting ready to crash on the beach and ride his bike in the sand. that doesn't scream hey, we're excited, democrats. it just says i think the party is over. >> i'm sure president carter appreciates you insulting him when he at least got religion but deregulation. he was deregulating airline tickets by the end of his time in office. speaking of biden and his climate and tax and spending law gives massive amounts of cash to the i.r.s. over the next 10 years. $80 billion in funding. six times the annual budget of the i.r.s.. the move sparking audit fears for everyday americans. the left, they say it's all just spin from the other side of the aisle. listen to this, jason. >> number of republicans have been trying to convince americans the money that has

been allocated to the bill saying those new agents will audit middle class taxpayers. >> how do you cut through the fear mongering and put out the truth? >> it is tough. some ofist is complicated. these aren't patriots. they are often tax cheats. if you love this country, what you need to do is pay your fair share. >> democrats say the super sized agency's 87,000 new staffers won't increase scrutiny or audits for the average earner. but the congressional budget office analysis there estimates that $20 billion audit revenue from middle and lower income americans. they are trying to act like it is fear mongering. people fear the i.r.s. because either individually or as a family and you know neighbors and have experiences with audits. >> democrats could have spent

this money anywhere. did they spend it on roads, bridges, infrastructure? did they put it towards the military in bringing up our united states navy to compete with china and have as many ships as china? we didn't do any of that. we didn't reduce the pain at the pump or allow it to accelerate transmission lines so we can have electronic cars and do these things. they want every american to have an enema and they will get it from the i.r.s.. they are throwing literally tens of billions of dollars at the i.r.s.. don't tell me that we're not going to touch anybody under $400,000. you have nothing to worry about. there is no worse feeling in this country than getting a notification from the i.r.s. that you are under audit and that's what the democrats are asking for. >> an editorial in the "wall street journal." while i ask you this let's look at a digital billboard, an ad in

times square featuring an image of joe biden. stop lying to small businesses over taxes, oo*irz audits, recession, inflation and ask do you think we're stupid or something? the journal wrote a piece about the i.r.s.. it goes through things that the inspector general at the i.r.s. found, the treasury inspector general. this one stood out to me. in july of last year there was an audit related to the failure of small business and self-employed division tragedy. the i.r.s. defines high earners as those with incomes greater than $200,000. yet over a two-year period 73% of the returns targeted by the strategy fell below $200,000, jason. there is also the treasury inspector general found that the i.r.s. took to seizing property from targets related

to the currency transactions, the $10,000 deposits exceeding 10 grand. they seized property before even conducting interviews and small business owners like people who own gas stations, they never committed the crimes and they never got their property back. >> when i was in congress we dealt a lot with the inspector general and it was very clear. look, we spent years trying to uncover and expose how the i.r.s. was targeting people with political -- for political ramifications. we tried to undo that. i don't think it's a coincidence the largest union, the treasury union, has suddenly have tens of thousands of additional members and 98% of those members donate to the democratic party. this is all -- i worry about the targeting. don't tell me if you have a small business you are going to get an enema from the i.r.s..

it's that simple. it is nothing else in that. again, democrats could have spent the money anywhere. this is where they chose to do it. >> how about let's use cork screw to the chin or something instead of the other way around? >> rather descriptive. >> once is okay, twice moving on. starting today a new reporting beat for "the new york times" looking into those who don't swallow the liberal media narrative. the outlet says the new arm of the times will report on right wing media and those who ingest it. it says the goal is to examine people who reject mainstream narratives and question the institutions that hold up our democracy understanding the way information is developed, circulated and absorbed on the right is vital at this precarious moment and requires a healthy measure, patience,

empathy and understanding along with investigative chops, skepticism and toughness. jason, your reaction. it sounds like they are trolling people who don't want to subscribe to the times. >> well, i think it's "the new york times" admitting they aren't going to actually just report the news. they have are a newsletter for the radical far left and they are telling their subscribers that hey, we are going to do this special investigative unit or special reporter. they aren't truly trying to understand america or understand middle america or the average person out there, person who just works hard and believes in their religion and maybe owns a gun. they don't even understand these people. we'll have to go hire somebody special to do this. it is absurd. it exposes who they are. instead of being the newspaper of record that just reports the news. they are admitting out loud

that's not what they are willing to do. >> being stuck in the middle of a big blue bubble in a big blue city, that's part of your problem. not understanding a large swath of america. it is called getting in a car and going on a road trip. in the words of judge judy putting your listening ears on. good to see you. thank you so much. more evidence of america's deep political divide. college kids say they don't want roommates who voted for a certain presidential candidate. who feels the most strongly? plus the growing number of democrats who won't commit to standing next to president biden on the campaign trail. will he help or hurt as he hits the road ahead of the mid-terms? the power panel is next. >> in a lot of states where you have senate races, they aren't biden states. the national average is stronger than his average in the individual states.

>> would you want president biden to come to arizona and campaign to you >> i welcome anybody at any time. >> not an open invitation for president biden to come and campaign with you. >> dagen: senator mark kelly the latest democrat wishy-washy and president biden's campaign help. biden is starting a coast to coast tour talking up the new spending and tax law hopes to boost democrats running in the mid-terms. who knows if any of those candidates are in sight when he arrives? listen to senator sheldon whitehouse when asked about biden seeking reelection. >> he is not on the ballot. he doesn't need to make a

decision now about 2024. >> do you think he should run again? >> i am going to duck that question if you don't mind. we don't have any candidates yet for 2024 and i'm not picking amongst them. >> dagen: the "washington post" out with a piece on how many democrats want biden the stay away. quote, as biden turns toward mid-terms he may not be the top surrogate. the president is not featured in ads. he goes largely unnamed on campaign websites and twitter accounts. and candidates in key races and battleground states are either not asking him to come or -- the power panel david webb, host on the patriot channel and jason nichols university of maryland professor of african-american studies. jason, he is toxic to democrats. what say you? >> well, dagen, the first thing i will say is malcolm x once

said history is qualified to award all research. presidential endorsements in battleground states are not effective. i take you back to 2020. trump endorsed martha mcsally in arizona. she lost. he endorsed two candidates in georgia, incumbent candidates and they both lost again and tried to help purdue and he lost by 50 points. if something we should learn by recent history maybe president should stay away and let the races be run locally. biden should strengthen his own poll numbers and look toward his own political future. when you look at what trump did when he endorsed people in battleground states where it's razor thin sometimes it makes it more of a partisan race. these people want to represent their particular state whether it's arizona, georgia, pennsylvania, or wisconsin. >> dagen: david.

trump is not on the ballot. trump is not even in the white house. and i love how jason just said hey, joe biden followed trump and do -- don't do what he did. so it's about trump, david. >> actually if you look at endorsements by trump in this primary season, he has had largely wins. there are always losses but interestingly mark kelly is in one of those 10 vulnerable democrat states and you would think if he had a biden behind him, a popular democrat president, he wouldn't have to run. now he has to run away from biden's border crisis. he has to run away from a president who has let north of 257,000 illegal alien children into america and now they are going to overburdine like new york where they need to hire 1,000 more teachers to deal with the influx of illegal aliens during the last two years.

people are looking at their pocket books. they are looking at their economics and inflation and looking at a real recession, not a redefined recession. it all ties to the president and his policies. so his cross-country tour is really a way to come out and be the skilled political liar saying don't pay attention to the economy, don't pay attention to back to school shopping up 6%. we could go down the list. we don't have enough time to tell the negative. >> dagen: the end of 2020 in the fourth quarter in december of 2020 inflation was at 1.4%. and the economy was growing at a 4 1/2% clip. those are just the facts. bill maher lashing out at democrats at republicans after "the new york times" reported faul steers may have stolen from the pandemic fund and they not being better wash dogs over

the money after they passed the $739 billion tax and spending bill. listen to this. >> doesn't make me a conservative that i don't want to be absolutely robbed blind? is there some number at which i go you know what? , you are just taking my money and wasting it and letting people steal it. why don't they do their part? nobody does any of their part. it makes me a little less excited about the money they are planning to spend. >> dagen: david, if you go through "the new york times" piece about prosecutors trying to catch up to the tidal wave of pandemic fraud it would make anybody mad. >> just look quickly at the numbers of cases by the thousands and tens of thousands that agents have to deal with. they will never get through it. problem with rampant spending by government is lack of accountability and it doesn't need to be bill maher. every american is paying this price.

>> dagen: the presumption is if you keep spending the same mistakes are made by the bureaucrats who were there then and still there now. >> yeah, i'm going to disagree a little bit. i will answer a little bit of factual information in here and say biden reduced the budget by $360 billion in his first year and it's set to raise $700 billion in revenue making corporations pay their fair share. so i think the idea that biden's spending recklessly when he is decreasing the budget definite doesn't jive. you look at any estimates he is set to produce more revenue. so i would disagree with that. >> dagen: we're talking about the fraud from all these pandemic programs. so rampant that biden just had to sign bills to extend the statute of limitations from five years to 10 years to give

prosecutors more time and investigators more time to actually identify all those criminals who stole from indirectly stole from hard working americans. and i will just note if you include the long toxic burn pits, the new climate and tax bill, the infrastructure law and the semi conductor manufacturing law they actually combine those four measures, increase the deficit by $300 billion, not lower, increase. so higher. that's the facts. jason, david, good to see you. this fox news alert. dr. anthony fauci will step down to chief medical advisor to president biden by december of this year and resign his post as director of the national institute of the allergy infectious diseases. president biden releasing a statement praising fauci for his work during the covid pandemic saying the u.s. is stronger and healthier because

of him. his retirement comes days after the cdc admitted it botched its response to the pandemic. walensky is still in her job. fauci will retire at the end of the year. president biden's next decision on student loans could leave you paying for someone else's degree. what the white house is considering and how it will impact your wallet. democrats defending their election meddling. >> absolutely not did we put party over country. we believe that by running a commercial that called our opponents an extremist we teed up the choice in the wall. >> dagen: the quote, moral argument they're making now and why people call it hypocrisy. representative malliotakis in "focus" next.

i'm tatiana for newday usa with some great news for fellow veterans who own a home. with home values at record highs, now's the best time in history to turn your home equity into cash. up to $60,000 or more. the newday 100 loan lets you borrow 100% of your home's value: 25% more cash than you get at a bank. give them a call.

>> there are a lot of people who thought that you oversaw a

very cynical ploy in order to help a trump-backed opponentent in the peter meyer district in michigan. you see the results. you put party over country, did you not? something you are comfortable? >> absolutely not did we put party over country. the moral imperative is to keep the dangerous maga republicans out of power. >> another democrat defending election meddling. the chair of the house democrats campaign arm say democrats are just doing their job. they spent hundreds of thousands of delays to promote far right candidates they think will be easier to beat in the big term. nicole malliotakis from the house, congresswoman, the moral imperative. so the democrats are morally just and right, and the republicans are what?

>> well, to me it's unbelievable that first of all the democrats are wasting their campaign donors' funding money to fund republican candidates. at the end of the day in districts where president biden won two years ago republicans are actually leading in so many polls. we believe we'll take back many of those seats. they should spend the money defending their own incumdants. i think maloney will be defeated. in addition to that, it's very cynical to assume that someone is endorsed by president trump they can't win the general election. i think it's the opposite of that. i have president trump's endorsement and i just beat a democrat incumbent who voted to impeach trump two years ago. at the end of the day i believe people are fed up with the democratic policies. we've discussed this before. the open borders, lawlessness in democrat-run cities. disaster of inflation but also

stopping american energy exploration all have led to americans suffering. i believe that candidates endorsed by president trump will prevail not just in the primaries but in the general election. >> dagen: karl rove wrote about the inventor of the strategy senator claire mccaskill who deployed it back about 10 years ago in 2012 where she propped up who she saw as her weakest republican opponent labeling him as too conservative and she said that she boasted she successfully manipulated the g.o.p. primary to get the opponent she was most likely to beat. and so this is not new, but we have never seen it in this dollar amount, congresswoman. >> it shows how lack of confidence the democrats have in their own candidates. i can tell you that we have a primary here in new york

tomorrow. i am proud to be endorsed by president trump. i know that whoever comes out of the democratic side that i will be able to beat as long as i am elected in tomorrow's primary. but what you are saying is right. they feel they need to meddle on the g.o.p. end to try to fix an election for themselves. it is no different than what we've seen them do all year long. look how they tried to gerrymander my district. they wanted to connect conservative staten island with bill deblasio's brooklyn. we had to go to court to stop non-citizens from voting in our municipal elections. they tried to change the rules in the senate to get rid of the filibuster. this is what the democrats do. they can't win by the rules and they want to change the rules and think they can get voters into electing a candidate that they want instead of what the republicans want in their own elections. >> dagen: i must correct

whoopsy. we labeled you, you had a v next to your name rather than an r. >> they -- a d, not an r. >> i appreciate you fixing it. we have a primary here. >> dagen: as we get closer to the mid-terms, congresswoman, a new poll show republicans lead on the congressional preference. 47% say they prefer a gop in control of congress compared to 45% who prefer democrats. in may the same poll saw a perfect tie. newly released power rankings show republicans, the house majority shrinking although the g.o.p. is still expected to pick up 16 seats. on the senate side, there are still five toss-up races on the board. in some of the factors that where democrats made gains, it

was particularly in suburban areas, colorado to name one and one race in virginia in particular with -- against incumbent spanberger who is a democrat. what do you make of that? >> i think it's really important that republicans from now until the election explain that we have a commitment to america. that we are going to secure our borders. we are going to have leverage once we take over the house to push president biden to finish the barrier, the border wall. reinstate remain in mexico. the party that supports law enforcement. we are fighting against the defund the police movement. we're the ones trying to make our cities like new york safer and holding governors like governor hochul accountable to fix the disastrous bail law. we are the party of fiscal responsibility and the party who will not look to spend more new social unaffordable programs but look at what is

not working and let's make sure we use taxpayer money wisely. we are the party that will be for am energy exploration. once again ramp up domestic production so we aren't reliant on our adversaries and bring down gas and food price thaes have skyrocketed. people have a clear choice. they have lived under one party democratic rule for the last two years. we must push the house. we have to hold onto a 15-seat in order for us to do it in two years. >> dagen: even though gas prices are way down off a record high one of the reasons they've fallen and the democrats are crowing about it, is because of demand destruction. meaning people are using less gasoline and driving less because they have to choose between food on the table and fuel in the car or vehicle. so congresswoman, good to see you. thank you so much for being here.

>> a war on cars, thank you. >> dagen: the back and forth between abbott and eric adams continue. more migrant buses making their way into mid town manhattan and now taxpayers are asking how much all this is costing them? rampant crime. >> they have giving us throw away prosecutors who try to downplay every case and give us judges who don't want to put people behind bars. we are progressive wokesters who don't care about the vick tills. >> dagen: violent out of control crime from coast to coast. democrats soft on crime policies now taking a lot of heat. jason rantz in "focus" next.

>> we've been really focused making sure we are protecting our students and borrowers. $32 billion in debt forgiveness from day one. we know august 31 is a date many people are waiting to hear something from. we've been talking daily about this. i can tell you that american people will hear within the next week or so. >> dagen: what will the white house do when it comes to student loans? critics say we could end up

paying for other kids' degrees. hillary vaughn live on capitol hill. >> it is down to the wire. president biden has until september 1st to decide if he is going to keep this pause on student loan payments in place. the committee for responsible federal budget says simply delaying payments until tepd of the year would cost $20 billion. effectively wiping out the first six years of deficit reduction passed in the inflation reduction act. the chair of economic advisors is down playing any economic impact of delaying payments for borrowers. >> we'll be making a decision. the impact on inflation will depend on the -- we have to keep it in context of the restart and let's face it. it happens over time. loan payments aren't students pay loans, take their payments over time. it is not a one-hit shock to the economy like a stimulus would be as many people might

be thinking. >> jason fuhrman who had the job disagrees it has zero economic impact. he says if you think it is not inflationary all interest payments for all borrowers for all time you are arguing you are replacing one source of inflation with another. in the meantime while the administration is flirting with complete student loan forgiveness the "washington post" reports the department of education is working on an idea called the fresh start initiative that would bring about 7.5 million borrowers behind on payments out of default, scrub their credit history of the incident and make them eligible the take out more loans. republicans are calling this idea crazy. one said it's literally the definition of insanity. it is also wrong if these individuals were unable to pay back their loans the first time they borrowed how will giving them access to more debt help?

student loan forgiveness would only benefit about 13% of americans who have student loans. but every taxpayer would ultimately end up paying for it. dagen. >> dagen: well said, hillary vaughn. larry summers the former treasury secretary saying i hope the administration does not contribute to inflation by doing this. the worst idea would be a continuation of the current moratorium that benefits, among others, highly paid surgeons, lawyers, and investment bankers. thank you so much, hillary vaughn on capitol hill. texas governor greg abbott not backing down as he buses illegal immigrants to sanctuary cities. leaders there are pleading for more federal help. in new york city hundreds of new arrivals lining up for things. land of the free. new yorkers who will be stuck with this tab are split.

>> don't let somebody get a free ride on the taxpayer. >> not sure i agree with that. if it ends up on taxpayers to foot the bill. >> you have homeless people you should be taking care of before, i think, the immigrants that are coming here. >> when people are in need we have to give them what they want and what is necessary for them to survive. >> dagen: jason rantz is here, seattle radio talk show host. it is only a several hundred people. new york can't handle that without more federal aid? >> let's just call this what it is. it's xenophobia. that's what we were told under the trump administration when states and cities came out, leaders saying hey, we're sanctuaries, come here and if you don't support this you are xenophobic and you hate people who don't look like you. these are new yorkers, who are

democrats the ones who are the xenophobics. right now the people taking care of the vast majority of illegal citizens are republicans. they are bearing the burden of everything that comes with housing so many people. so let's just acknowledge that. i'm so sick and tired of being lectured by folks on the left how we're the ones who lack compassion when you guys on the left in new york are saying we can't handle a couple hundred people. >> dagen: talk about lack in compassion look no further than the crime crisis in blue cities. new york city for one, the sucker punch suspect and convicted sex offender is once again behind bars for violating his parole. massive outrage last week when the criminal walked free after being caught on camera attacking a man who is finally off a ventilator in the hospital. this perp was released, no bail

when his charges were downgraded from attempted murder. new york's democrat governor kathy hochul taking credit for his recapture. republican city councilman joeber elli saying not so fast. >> the governor is delusional if she thinks she deserves a pat on the back for putting this guy in jail. directing the parole office to do that. this is a career criminal. one of the worst sex offender. a bad, bad man. democratic party in new york state have given us the bail reform laws. they are responsible. kathy hochul is responsible for the problem, not the solution. >> dagen: more video showing the out of control crime crisis. a pack of mugers pushing two young canes downstairs of an apartment building slashing and robbing them. the victims were only 16 years old. kathy hochul puts this one perp back in jail.

what about the scores and scores, hundreds and hundreds of people who are out, no bail, who are -- where is she standing up for those assault victims? >> oftentimes they don't stand up unless they are forced to because the media does its job in a bigger way and covers all this. at the end of the day whether it's new york, l.a. seattle, anywhere else, you commit crimes if you think you can get away with it. you aren't seeing this kind of action happening if fronts of cops. when there are too few cops, when there are prosecutors known for going easy on criminals and then you throw in partisan judges, guess what? it makes it very easy for degenerates to justify their crime. and then you add on top of all of this the mentally hill homeless population on the streets. democrat-run cities getting increasingly dangerous with no end in sight. what's missed in all of this is a bigger conversation not just on the prosecutors, but also the judges. you have these criminals who get in front of them and

charges that are downgraded. you have some who are released without bail but you have situations which you plead down to the downgraded charges which means the criminal sees little to no jail time. a judge can reject those pleas in many of these cases and they choose not to because they are just as partisan as a lot of these prosecutors. >> dagen: also in seattle, you are there, firefighters are demanding the city take action after at least 40 reported assaults on firefighters since may. the firefighters union head saying that the attacks have been carried out by the cities' homeless population. >> absolutely. the homeless population here is allowed to get away with anything it wants to. you have the encampments that grow and grow and grow. they're dangerous. sometimes they catch on fire. you send firefighters down and they end up getting attacked by homeless folks who are better suited to be in shelter and in treatment for mental health issues and addiction crises. the problem is we don't have

enough officers to send immediately with a lot of the firefighters out in the field. so what ends up happening is you have a larger possibility that someone ends up dying because the firefighters can't get there in time or can't get to the location in a safe way. we have seen this happen before. >> dagen: i want to get to this as well. a new survey shows 62% of current college students who identify as democrat say they won't share a dorm with someone who voted for trump. so enjoy your quarter of a million dollar bubble that you get to live in for four years if you are a liberal. >> have democrats pay for it. this tells me two things. one it reminds us that younger folks are ideological bigots and we have to do a better job of explaining to them why that's the wrong thing. number two, the republicans in particular have to do a better job of reaching out to young folks. this is not acceptable.
