oh. oh. don't goes goodman. bret. >> jesse: in politics it can be the kiss of death. remember thomas dewey holding up the dewey defeats truman newspaper? remember that? if you were born later you probably don't. i have seen it. it looks like they had fake news back then, too, didn't they? it looks like joe biden had his dewey moment this summer. remember when he declared victory over inflation? >> actually, i just want to say a number zero: today we received news that our economy had zero percent inflation in the month of july. zero percent. zero inflation last month. >> jesse: just like he declared victory too early over covid, same thing happened with inflation because, today, just like the rent is too damn high, so are prices. >> this just in, the august inflation report chief business

correspondent christie romans has the numbers what are you seeing? >> forward cooling but too high. you have the overall inflation number 8.3%. you get inside these numbers, some of the year over year increases here are really troubling. you have got gasoline prices up 25% year over year. food, this category making some history here. the largest 12 month increase since 1979. shelter up 6.2%. that has been a sticky part of this inflation story here. you know, can you switch different kinds of meat at the grocery store. you can't just switch where you are living overnight. >> jesse: 8.3% inflation. i don't have a math degree from wharton if i did i would work on wall street. i'm pretty sure 8.3% is 8.3% more than zero. groceries are up 12%. so add that to your bill. along with paying for your neighbor's ph.d. and electric car. but just like the taliban taking over afghanistan or the formula shortage, biden isn't a mind reader. >> the thing that really bothers

me with regard to inflation is everybody here on this panel agreed months ago that one of the reasons inflation was high was all the government spending. and after we agreed on that, what did the government do? they spent more student loans, welfare in terms of the chips act sems like nothing is sinking in. >> jesse: biden spent decades would actually reduce inflation. we went from having a businessman inside the white house to a man who has never run a business inside the white house. it shows. you really expect biden to know if you spend more inflation is going to keep up? no way the rapper cardi b. knows more than the president of the united states. even cardi b. saw it coming. >> how are people surviving? i want to know my family and friends are so grateful to have me. it's like yo, what happens to me that don't have a me?

what is going on with the people that don't have a me? not just -- l.a. going to start having more blackouts because pay double the price when it comes to electricity. [bleep] [bleep] i knew it was going to have a financial crisis. >> jesse: can we make cardi b. the press secretary? she doesn't need a bind tore know what's going on. but the bag get loving biden reader came to the briefing totally unprepared today. she read from her binder that inflation went down when it actually went up. >> our data show more progress in bringing global inflation down here at home. overall prices have been essentially flat in our country these last two months. >> jesse: she can't even update her own binder? but she wasn't going to to be the one to spoil joe biden's inflation reduction act party. today was biden's day to celebrate zero inflation and he booked a star studded lineup to perform at this big white house

event. stars including james taylor. and that's pretty much it. it was just james taylor. but i mean, you can't cancel james taylor. you probably already paid him. canceling james taylor actually would have reduced inflation. but was that never even the point. take it away, james. ♪ i have seen fire and i've seen rain ♪ i've seen sunny days that i thought would never end ♪ >> jesse: song about suicide and addiction i don't know about you but i object spider. definitely going to make everybody forget about the money they lost. maybe the i have saint gobbler he thought he was climate change event. >> what a beautiful day it is and what a hopeful moment this is the world needs to get together on and respond to the climate crisis. >> jesse: james, they spent it all on climate and just called

it the inflation reduction act. what are you doing? you are messing up their messaging. the dow lost 1,000 points today. more, inflation came in red hot. we are in a recession and biden decided hey, let's invite james taylor over and throw a party. this is like your wife leaving you at the altar hey, let's just go to the dance floor and cut the cake since it's already paid for. not only that it's like if the father of the bride and the best man go ahead and start making toasts. listen. ♪ ♪ [cheers] >> whoa. look at this crowd. is new york in the house?

here to celebrate this life changing legislation. making inflation -- the inflation reduction act -- inflation reduction act so beautifully named for all that it does. your extraordinary leadership has made this glorious day possible. i -- that's an applause line. [applause] [applause] >> jesse: i don't know how anybody could follow nancy pelosi. it's like following jimmy hendrix. but somehow the big guy pulled it off. >> think about what you think about at the at time. think about how you would feel. >> jesse: i don't know what kind of sounds joe biden was making there but this feels like a birthday party for a dead guy. actually, the democrats are helping him by raising prices. you might be a fascist so it's hard to follow but even though your wages have gone down joe biden is giving you room to breathe so be grateful. >> this bill cut costs for

families. help reduce inflation at the kitchen table because that's what they look at how much of their monthly bills and how much they have to pay out for their necessities and it gave them just a little more breathing room. >> jesse: yeah. biden just punched you in the stomach. where is your thank you? the average guy who is about to retire just lost $14,000 in the stock market today. that's on top of all the other costs is he getting slaughtered with. this was even too cruel for cnn. >> he is celebrating the passage of the inflation reduction act but there is this unfortunate flip screen right now with the dow taking a total beating down more than 1200 points and so it feels like it's hard to be celebratory for some people. >> america lost and joe biden took a victory lap. is this just poor planning? or is this all going according to plan? the sham party is just another cover-up. his entire presidency is a cover-up built on lies. the only reason inflation isn't at 10% is because biden drained

the strategic petroleum reserve. look at that gas prices are down off their highs because he is flooding the market with oil that taxpayers paid for. this is for emergencies like wars and hurricanes not midterms. and biden is going to have to restock the stockpile with oil at close to $100 a barrel. what do you think that's going to do to the price? when america starts buying gazillions of barrels of oil? it's going to send the price at the pump right back to over $5 a gallon. but after joe spiked the football in your face, he flew back to delaware. guys, it's tuesday. and the president just went home for the rest of the week. covid is over but joe loves to work remotely. or not actually work at all. like masters the former coo of teal capital and running for senate in arizona. this inflation reality has to have just smacked the white house in the face and destroyed

this fake momentum that the media built for this president and the democrats. i don't see how they can carry on after this. >> well, they are going to try, jesse. right? it's completely insane. we have skyrocketing inflation, the stock market is on fire. normal americans are losing their life savings. and you said it. what could tdo the democrats doa party for themselves. the inflation reduction act party it. looked pretty lame to me. probably two or three times more expensive than it would have been this time last year but they don't care because it's funded by the taxpayer. they will keep taxing the hell out of us and printing money and this delusional elite they can't manage their way out of a paper bag. so disconnected from the pain really that normal people are feeling and the greater phoenix metro in arizona. inflation is -- it's not 8.3%. it's 13 to 20% generalized. families getting crushed by.

this biden not only wants to care he wants to take a victory lap. i find it shameful. >> jesse: senate candidates running around talking about anybody but inflation. you guy a got mark kelly out there running in arizona. he was asked if jond is doing a good job here is his answer. listen. >> has he done a good job, do you think? >> hey, you know, you know, first of all it's not my job to give him a report card. i would say, you know, mixed reviews. >> if he came out heard and held an event you would attend that event. >> i would certainly consider it. >> consider is it. >> i would look at it. >> jesse: he would look at it, blake. >> like awkward to watch, jesse. so uncomfortable watching a conventional politician try to weevil his way out. look, i understand why mark kelly doesn't want to give joe biden a report card it's because joe biden's report cashed is mark kelly's report card. biden's record of failure is mark kelly's record of failure. these guys are joined at the hip and mark kelly voted for all the trillions in spending that caused this inflation.

>> are you a james taylor fan by the way? >> not anymore. [laughter] >> jesse: why do the democrats keep shoving james taylor down our throats. didn't they send james taylor over on a private plane with john kerry to console the french after a terrorist attack? what is it with this guy, james taylor? >> i don't know. buff the democrats are so out of touch, maybe they bought some carbon credits for that flight. they are just out of touch. and i don't know if they are just trying to keep the lid on. i think they think they can just lie to people. but they must think that the american people are going to buy the propaganda. like i literally think the democrats in charge, they think that you are stupid. they think that you won't notice. even though you are going to the grocery store. you are paying utility bills. you see that costs are high. they think they can just trot out karine the binder reader and have her propagandize you and not understand what's happening. it's not going to work. >> jesse: we are going to push hard to make cardi b. the press secretary she knows what's going

on like masters, arizona. thank you very much. absolutely wild police shooting we have to show you. plus, "primetime" visits a cannabis convention. >> a lot of studies have shown that marijuana makes you a little slower. is that true? >> depends a lot on what strain you are smoking because there is a lot of different types. >> what about the omicron strain. >> i don't think i have ever smoked that one. ♪ ♪ it's the most wonderful time of the year ♪ claritin provides non-drowsy symptom relief from over 200 indoor and outdoor allergens, day after day. feel the clarity and make today the most wonderful time of the year. live claritin clear.

voting. he could have just mailed his ballot. so why is he flying air force one 10 minutes to delaware? do you know how much pollution that causes? i don't believe this story that he is going to vote. something else is going on and we will get to the bottom of it and we will report back what we know. we all know the school yard slang sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me. for the democratic party it's practically their man trap. democrats must hate the dictionary. any time they don't like reality they just redefine a word. economy tanks, not a recession. are you a woman? can't say. not a biologist. how about that southern border? totally secure. >> the border is secure. >> we are going to have 2 million people cross this border for the first time ever. you are confident this border is

secure? >> we have a secure border in that that is a priority for any nation, including ours and our administration. >> jesse: okay. it's not secure. look at this footage. look at this footage. this is not go arizona. migrants are scaling down this border fence for camo something out of mission impossible. and just 45 minutes fox news witnessed dozens of illegals entering the country. guess how many they caught? they caught none of them. zero. this is crazy. it's the people on the border who are stuck dealing with the consequences. listen to the residents of this texas town describe the assault. >> several weapons -- i need to have here because i don't feel safe. my kids come here and help me on the weekends or at nights to unload the merchandise and i already taught them how to use these weapons and they are teenagers, they are 14 and 15

years old. >> my sister was asleep. her room is like towards the front of the house. she came to my room all scared and she said someone knocked on my window. >> you are running stuff or killing animals to eat. i don't know or stealing your things. >> jesse: wow. democrats created this and now people on the border are stuck cleaning it up. so in texas and arizona, shared some of these issues with these democrat run sanctuary cities. they didn't get a great reception. in chicago, lori lightfoot called greg abbott not a good christian for busing migrants a few dozen into her town. but then she turned around and did the same thing deporting them to the suburbs. and she is not the only democrat redefining sanctuary city. in washington, d.c. mayor muriel bowser has already declared a state of emergency over the influx of a couple thousand illegals and now she is following lightfoot's lead kicking migrants out of the capitol. it seems like these democrats that what we have been saying

all along the chaos at the border can't continue. don't worry, the white house is on top of everything. they know who to blame. >> the trump administration, which largely just tried to build a wall, an ineffective wall along the border and couldn't even finish that in four years were certainly doing a lot more to secure the border and could be doing even more if republicans would stop their obstruction. >> jesse: florida senator marco rubio joins me now. i hope that wasn't trump border wall that those camo wearing migrants were repelling down from. if it is, they might need to build it 10 feet taller. >> well, i just saw the clip there from the white house spokesperson she said they couldn't finish the wall. they couldn't finish the wall because democrats wouldn't vote for the funding. they would not approve a dollar more. they called the wall a racist idea. there most people just turn themselves in because they know if you turn yourself in. you are going to be allowed to

stay in the country. given a work permit. you will be told to show up in 10 years or 5 years for asylum hearing. but some people don't. those are the ones you have got worry about. why aren't they turning themselves in. and have you seen those images of the so-called got-aways. just the other day a drone flying over and within a an hour saw hundreds of people cross. millions of people but also the drugs. uncontrolled flow of drughtsz across the border and killing people in cities all across this country. this administration has the face to send the vice president on television and say well, the border is secure or at least to the extent that we are trying. they are not trying. they are actively and openly inviting people to come here illegally. >> yeah, this white house is the best thing that ever happened to the drug cartels, so you are in a race down there in florida. who is your opponent, senator? >> well, my opponent is val demings. she supports all of this. she says frankly we don't have a border crisis. she is someone that has very radical. also votes with nancy pelosi 10. every radical far left idea you could think of she has voted for

or supported from the indoctrination on transgender issues to the open border and things of that nature. she is raising a lot of known. i ask people watching to go on my website and give marco rubio.com. i'm being outraised because liberals all over the country want to ruin florida. they don't like florida because we have embarrassed them. >> jesse: what did you think about the james taylor performance today at the white house. were you inspired? >> look, i'm going to be honest, i don't know a lot about james taylor. i guess he has won some awards and sold some records maybe more than anybody. i'm actually embarrassed for the guy. asked them to come and play the guitar on the day they announcing this inflation reduction garbage and in fact it's the day that we got the report just food prices are the highest they have been since 1979. baby food is up. everything is up. people living in the real world know it. i think they look at something like what happened there today and you get angry by it or you feel embarrassed for the guy that got, you know, what's his name james taylor or whatever playing the guitar on the lawn of the white house.

i feel bad for all of them. i'm embarrassed for them. >> jesse: maybe they will throw another party for securing the border. [laughter] >> who is going to sing at that one? >> jesse: i don't know. we are trying to get cardi b. to sing. >> at least she knows what inflation is. >> jesse: that's true. more than anybody at the white house. thank you so much, senator. >> thank you. >> jesse: north carolina police officer was forced to take out a criminal who tried to steal his cruiser. and we have the body cam footage. matt finn brings us the latest. >> jesse, this new police body camera video gives us an upclose view of that former concord north carolina officer who shot to death a man that refused to get out of a truck that he was apparently trying to steal. police say 29-year-old brandon colmes broke into a nissan car dealership in february and stole personal items and key fobs, apparently then getting access inside what appears to be a shiny new gray truck. former officer timothy larson approaches the would-be thief

and repeatedly commands him to get out of that truck and stop the car. but the suspect does not comply. >> hey, hey. do not move. do not move. do not move. what are you doing? hey! get out of the car. get out of the car. get out of the car! >> the officer then calls for backup and, again, demands the suspect get out of the truck. the man finally does get out and then runs into the officer's squad car. the officer runs up to his police suv and shoots the 29-year-old suspect five times killing him. the da's office says former officer larson was legally justified saying he gave the suspect more than a dozen commands and was in imminent danger knowing that his suv had a rifle in it and because the suspect revved the engine. "the charlotte observer" reports larson was fired for refusing to answer questions after the shooting and lying to his superiors and the state bureau of investigation. the victim's family has filed a

wrongful death lawsuit. their attorneys say former officer larson was not in the path of the suv and therefore not in danger and he fired four shots, called it in and then fired the fifth shot to make sure that the suspect was dead. jesse. >> if joe biden crushed covid, why won't 1200 "new york times" reporters come back to work? ♪ rt back there? instead of using aloe, or baby wipes, or powders, try the cooling, soothing relief or preparation h. because your derriere deserves expert care. preparation h. get comfortable with it. with my hectic life you'd think retirement would be the last thing on my mind. thankfully, voya provides comprehensive solutions and shows me how to get the most out of my workplace benefits. voya helps me feel like i've got it all under control. voya. well planned. well invested. well protected.

♪ >> jesse: it's obvious that both the legacy media, print and tv are in total disarray. nobody even watches cnn or msnbc anymore. cbp's top show last month, anderson cooper didn't even have a million viewers. it is struggle city. and when you take a beating for so long you are forced to do a little self-reflection. and that's what's happening over there. this week they unveiled a brand new segment called upon further review where they revisit

stories from the past they got totally wrong. like they are going to therapy. the first installment was on the duke volleyball player who accused byu fans yelling racial slurs at her throughout the match. naturally before gathering the facts, cnn took the story and ran with it but "upon further review" they were wrong. there was no evidence this ever happened. watch. >> new segment that updates the initial official version of the story once more facts come in. a form of journalistic accountability and we are going to call it "upon further review." healthy skepticism is a virtue this doesn't read like a cover-up instead like a rush to judgment because of a well-intentioned impulse to believe the duke players' accusations when investigations turn up a very different fact pattern it's incumbent upon everyone to acknowledge it and adjust. >> jesse: we reported a hoax without fact checking it but we're accountable and that's why

we are good journalists. but there's more work to do. obviously, you could do a segment on the laptop. you could do a three part series on covid. i mean, there is so much content to work with here. i mean, cnn could have a upon further review for an hour. they could do the whole weekend on it. and i hear the network has an opening. sundays at 11 o'clock a.m., just saying. but cnn isn't alone. "the washington post" is also struggling. the paper is hemorrhaging money and subscribers. not good. meanwhile the "new york times" dealing with serious problems. nobody wants to go back to work. 1300 employees signed a little pledge because that's what they like to do, refusing to return to the office. they say they want to be paid more and they say their wages aren't keeping up with inflation and the cost of gas. because they have a commute. i wonder why that happened?

we know what's really going on. they have realize they have to go back to the office with this guy and said on second thought i'll stay home. but in all seriousness, this is what happens when you let the inmates run the asylum. if it's up to them these people are never going back to the office. they like being home alone they are shy, they are sheltered. they like to submit to government rule. so, what do new yorkers think about all of this? well, we sent a producer out. listen. >> working from home is better because you are your own boss, sleep, eat whenever you want. take a break. >> i think everyone should have a decision on when they should be in and when they shouldn't. we are all adults here. >> the "new york times" should have people come back. send me i will go to work for them. >> they should go back to work. that's what makes new york go. that's what makes companies go. >> i think it's unreasonable to think people are just going to come back after covid that was so traumatizing. >> covid is a very, very serious

sickness. >> it's over, all right? get with it. take the mask off and get your butt to work. >> if you told your boss, hey, i'm not coming in, what would happen to you? >> you would find somebody else. >> you will say goodbye, you are not working here anymore. >> fired me. >> maybe i get fired. >> i get fired, that's it. >> the "times" might say listen, no, you know, no worky, no come to office, see you. >> do you trust the "new york times"? >> i don't read it. >> i read them every day. >> and, yes, because i have never read it but, yes. >> do i trust the "new york times"? >> no. >> i kind of don't trust the media generally. >> i don't trust anyone. >> jesse: kayleigh mcenany is the former white house press secretary and co-host of "outnumbered." "upon further review" we're not going back to the office.

>> yeah. i'm not surprised. i mean, these were the same folks who when we knew kids were not being affected by cody i said it from the podium in july of 2020. i gave all this data. all this research. all of these facts. they said we were acting to the detriment of science when we said houses of worship are going to open in accordance with the first amendment. they said how dare you? so i'm not surprised here we are two years later, jesse, and they won't go to work. these folks are totally obsessed with covid. and it's one thing when it effects you and your job to your own detriment. it's another thing when it effects the nation's children as it has with all of these school closures. >> they also can't get back to work because inflation is too high. we don't want to talk about why that is. maybe they could write about it but they won't. >> neither could james taylor. >> there is a lot of uncertainty when it comes to whether biden is actually going to run for

re-election. but you would think his wife, of all people, kayleigh, would know what his plans are. but it turns out she has no idea. dr. jill says they haven't really talked about it. listen. >> dr. biden has been first lady now for nearly two years. the president saying he will run again in 2024. >> have you talked about it with him? >> not yet. we have been a little bit too busy. not yet, but i'm sure it will be a discussion. >> jesse: they seem close, don't you think? >> yeah. this is inconceivable. i heard in this morning. the biggest decision of your lifetime whether you are going to re-run for the presidency after 80 years old and you haven't talked about it? i'm sorry, i'm going to just call balls and strikes here. that's just a mistruth. of course they have talked about it. everyone in the world is talking about it including in his own party suggesting he shouldn't run. they have talked about it. that was a dodge and where is the follow-up from the reporter?

i guess she was taking a page from chuck todd there. >> jesse: no one should ever take a page from chuck todd. no one should ever do that. you know, maybe they have been quarantining for a long time, kayleigh, maybe when he goes to delaware, she goes somewhere else. you don't really know. >> right. >> jesse: we're not there. >> one of two options. either it it was a mistruth or they are the worst married couple in all of time and have not seen each other, you are right. >> jesse: you don't share that much with your spouse about running for re-election for the presidency of the united states. didn't come up. just too busy. too busy fighting inflation. and listening to james taylor. thanks so much, kayleigh. >> thanks, jesse. >> jesse: upon further review, we just found out the source for the dirty dossier was a russian spy on the fbi's payroll.

meeting some presidents. i know you have met almost -- gosh, the last couple presidents you have been familiar with. >> i haven't met barack obama. he is the only one i have not met. >> jesse: very aloof character. when you get a chance to talk these presidents do you ask them questions what the most top secret thing you can tell me? >> no. and i think the reason that they don't mind hanging out with sue and i is that we don't do that. we don't do that. so i shouldn't do that. >> kids, yeah. no, whatever you feel like doing. but we don't. >> jesse: this whole classified document thing, when you write these books, do you ever see anything that's been declassified when you write these political thrillers, these spy novels? >> i have been to mar-a-lago but i didn't see any documents there so, no. no one is showing me any veto
