"outnumbered" is up next. ♪ ♪ >> hello, everyone this "outnumbered" and i'm dagen mcdowell and joining me jackie deangelis, dr. nicole saphier, raymond arroyo. we look ahead to 2023 and set to take control of the house one week from tomorrow and preparing for a number of investigations as many as 40 or 50 by the oversight committee alone

according to one on that panel. targets would include the border prices, the botched u.s. withdrawal from afghanistan, hur biden's business dealings and the man who wants to be house speaker kevin mccarthy on some of the people he wants to question about the president's son and the efforts to cover up the story. >> 51 intel agents signed a letter that said hunter biden information was all wrong with russian collusion. many have a security clearance. we will bring before a committee. i will have a hearing and bring them and subpoena them but why did they sign it? why did they lie to the american public? >> raymond, i'm sure you have others on that list? >> raymond: there is a ton of things to investigate but even during the last electorate, kept saying kevin mccarthy and republicans know the issue that updated contract with america -- i can't remember what they call

it, an agreement with america or whatever it was, it was so broad and vague that it was not a governing agent. it didn't have the specificity we will do this, this, this but economically free to make you happier. we will give you more independence. what does that mean legislatively? they never staked out that territory. i worry when i hear, "our plan" we get the power at last and to investigate all these things that we end up with benghazi era with a lot of drama, a big show trial of nothing, dagen. you remember that, drilled 11 hours and they got nothing. so i worried. >> dagen: what difference does it make which is offensive to the families who lost loved ones. >> raymond: it was horrible. the whole event was horrible that thing in itself what they did to those men. but again i worry, go do something positively, stop playing defense. we are dipping back into

yesterday's story line. unless you have the political reason to revive it like the democrats did trying to keep this january 6th alive. the insurrection, the insurrection is at the southern border. that is what the republicans should be focused on, make the legislation fix that and hold that up as your polling card when you run again. republicans don't know how to tell stories. >> dagen: i love the jump ball to anybody who wants to explain. >> raymond: or debate. >> dagen: debate. it's not mansplaining but woman's blaming how the republicans can do all of these things at once because jackie, the republicans controlling the house of representative will control the power of purse but the democrats control the senate. there will be limitations what they can or cannot do. so, this is of critical importance to the american

people to get some answers about what fell apart and why. particularly with twitter and the fbi's interference in the election in 2020. >> jackie: absolutely pure there is a long list to impact and to your point about the house republicans can do, they can block spending. i think they will do that. they will continue to look into these issues, twitter, the fbi's involvement and a granule level to tell what to do. that is one story. i'm also interested in the origins of the covid-19 pandemic. almost three years later my would like some answers for why over 1 million people died in this country, white people will be suffering from mental illness, lack of learning loss, possibly long covid effects for many years to come, not just in this country but globally as well. this is an administration that has completely brushed over this issue. even if there is no action,

which i think there should be, this is not an oops, we messed up. what happened in the wuhan lab but people want answers and acknowledgment for the loss of life in this country. and also, to the damage that ws done to the economy as well. we were prospering and we got thrown under the bus. >> dagen: right. it set us on financial trajectory as a nation to ruin. it is put in place additional long-term spending plan that we can't undo. you started with spending. on that note, the two times that president biden has spoken with xi jinping that the white house said he didn't directly address the origins of covid and getting to the bottom. oh, but it up but never got a straight answer about that, dr. saphier. >> dr. saphier: that is right, dagen. like jackie said, what was concealed from the american people and what was the evidence that it did originate in the

wuhan lab? why was there funding, gain-of-function research, rolled health organization and all incompletes with the ccp when it came to the information. what we do with that information is what i'm more interested in. because just saying this is what happened, we need to make sure no longer planting the sort of research. maybe we shouldn't give any sort of reparations to the chinese communist party. maybe we need to hold them more accountable but i tell you the biden administration, that won't happen even in the republican congress. but to raymond's point i get concerned because hell-bent on nailing trump and the january 6th. what has happened? you have a crisis at the border, inflation so high that people are rationing their utilities and food when we come into the winter season. i don't want to see republicans fall into the same path we are so focused on holding people accountable that they are forgetting about the american people. i want to see a little bit more less partisan focus in the new

year and focus on the people who elected them they are because they need that right now. >> dagen: oversight committee is there for that reason and that is oversight. >> jackie: we need a affirmative agenda and the conservatives need to say what we can do for the american people. but i also agree with everything that has been said here, list the eight or, more consequences. if you have consequences, you establish deterrence and people unwilling to do these kinds of things again like the fbi collusion with twitter, big tech in general. thus far, jack dorsey, we again haven't seen anything. he frankly is playing with the truth when it comes to what was going on in his company. but at the same time, these people need to be subpoenaed again and experience something for that, consequences. without that, they will do it again and again and again. we have seen it happen. >> dagen: i can name several people with twitter and the fbi who will get called in front of

oversight. you were nodding your head dr. saphier but now you are in agreement? >> raymond come if you know what is good for you. >> raymond: i think it is right, we need -- nicole made an important point, what are the consequences? i don't want it to end with the drama and sound bite. hillary clinton did not pay a price what she did in benghazi and neither did obama. a fear of the same will await the bidens. and i wonder if expending political capital on this sort of mission worth losing the heart of the american people? >> dagen: the fbi was paying multimillions of dollars to twitter. >> raymond: is oversight. the one it raises the question, did the american taxpayer pay for election interference in 2020? maybe we get to the bottom of

that. >> i would just like to know the answer. some of these answers need to be put out on the table so people can decide for themselves how we move forward. >> dagen: coming up from the border to covid to russia to china. the president says one thing his white house staff says different. a close look at the biden administration's mixed messaging next. ♪ ♪

>> president biden and his staff don't seem to be on the same page. we have seen the white house walk back or contradict many of the presidents controversial remarks time and time again on issues, including the pandemic. the threat of a rail strike and the baby formula shortage.

watch this. >> [indistinct] >> i'm not saying when the president did or didn't know. i know, he spoke to that himself so i will let that stand. i am saying we have been working on this, we, as a whole a government approach have been working on this since the recall, which was in february. he is, indeed, involved directly but i don't want to get into details at this time when he has been involved. i just said the president has been directly involved. he has been in touch. this is a third time i have said he's directly involved. >> can you talk about the hold up is mr. president? >> i can't because i'm in negotiations. >> my team has been in touch with the parties.

and i have not directly engaged because we are still talking. >> is the pandemic over? >> the pandemic is over. we still have a problem with covid. we are still doing a lot of work on it. the pandemic is over. >> if you notice nobody is wearing a mask and everybody seems to be in good shape. >> here we are going into the third year of it and we are still in the middle of a pandemic. wear a mask inappropriate indoor settings. when you have a crowd situation. >> so they are all contradicting each other and he says one thing and they say another. they do a cleanup on aisle 7 to help him out a little bit but dagen where do you want to start with this month? >> dagen: i don't think that they actually tell joe biden what to say because he probably wouldn't listen if they did. he will so polite fully lie

about anything. they would just let him free agent away. then they just tried to, you know, mop it up. the fact. what bothers me more than the contradictions is the coordinated lying when we get that. and i will point to when you had a la handrail may work as, vice president kamala harris and joe biden stand up in front of e than a year ago and lie about border agents with respecn migrants. they did not whip them and they were trying to corral illegal migrants and they stood up there and lied and they lied. it was the only time they got angry about the border crisis that they created. it is appalling that they never stood up and said, "we lied. we apologize." >> that is a good point. he was standing there himself

and saying in one breath that is not over but it is over. it is confusing listening to this president. if you remember the time he was at the white house and they have the easter bunny trying to usher him away from a lot of times they don't want him to talk. >> raymond: the emergency last stop attending the easter bunny or whatever festive character we have available to shut him up and move him along. listen, joe biden has told lies his entire career. his son died and iraq, he did not. his grandfather was a coal i promise you. so you watch this, but it really speaks to a press corps that will not hold the president accountable because they seem to be aligned ideologically pure they look the other way in every instance. when you have this story, dagen, so offensive about our agents whipping migrants and it was obviously ridiculous, but they all went out and gave voice to

it and kept it alive for months. even when it is over and this is my larger point, they are not held accountable and there is no regret at any moment and no expression of, "i am sorry. i was wrong." this is not serving the american people. we need a pure information flow. >> peter doocy do try to hold them accountable but it is difficult because the last karine jean-pierre and she will flat out live icing the president has been to the border. >> she repeats the topic because three times so people will stop asking the question that she does not answer ever. i don't know what is more concerning the fact the president doesn't remember conversations that he does or does not have but such a major disconnect and lack of information in the administration. it explains what is happening but what you are talking about, there are no consequences for the things that come out of the presidents mouth. end of summer 2022,

president biden came forth and said, you know what the updated boosters will be available for the american people and ready to go by september. this was before the fda looked at the data suggesting whether the boosters are safe and effective and who should get them. as a result of the words coming out of his mouth, two high levels of fda who retired early because they could not be within the fda because the pressure coming from the white house. >> kara, what do you think? he doesn't have control of what is coming out of his mouth but i'm not sure if it is that. >> he uses that excuse over and over again. he had to drop out of the presidential race. biden is a liar and not good, uncle joe but a lot of people will excuse him because he is the guy who shuffles around in the corner and smiles at people. no, not at all. this is who we is, his character and something, the king and thee

in the democrats armor. everybody falls in line. we were talking about the disarray and the conservative party. we have ideas and the best one wins out. joe biden is only one guy they can't control or them. but i think the american people don't benefit because of that. >> that is a good point. we have to leave it there. the police departments across the country facing some of the worst staffing shortages thanks to liberal crime policies. that is next. ♪ ♪

prosecution or no prosecution of the criminals, repeat offenders returned to the street. the cop is more policed than the criminals at this point. this is a real problem. and these d.a.s who refused to use prosecutorial power of the city and their office, they are letting these criminals run wild. the cops feel abandoned. they can't do their job on the ground, and they feel if i go out and intervene here come i will be dragged into court. it is easier to retire early. or better yet i see this time and time in new orleans i will move to the next parish where they allow you to be a cop and do not get dragged into the cycle a disaster. the cities, we barely go downtown in new orleans. this is a city i love and grew up in and they should not be the case. >> dagen: vilify the police has the same effect jackie has defined the police. and you throw in say the bail reform in new york where you

were sent to be arrested and be held for at least a judge to lay bail on a criminal, a perpetrator. you have to -- the victim has to be bleeding in the middle of the street. so it has the effect of if you rob a store, the police officer is not going to arrest you. it puts the movement. and i have conversations with them. i told him things that have happened on the streets of new york city and they shrug their shoulders because they are stuck in a bad situation. if they haven't retired early,

some are waiting for their pensions to kick in and try to figure out what their next move is. they don't want to be vilified. i stand back and say, haven't we realized defund the police is not the answer? everyone across the country is suffering as a result of this. of course, no system is perfect. of course, sometimes bad things happen and they should be called out and prosecuted. there should be some conversation how we can make the force stronger instead of trying to tear it down, having impact on us, the civilians or taxpayers just trying to go to work, just trying to do the job and not get hurt. that is it pure that is my goal most days. >> dagen: dr. saphier, this is something we've seen with serious recruiting problem in the military where you no longer have legacy within families, a parent served and thinned the children did serve. the same thing is happening typically in the police departments. i've had the personal conversations with a father who

served and retired collecting a pension in say, the nypd. and he discouraged his sons or children from serving because he doesn't want them to put their lives on the line when you don't have governors and mayors and district attorneys who will stand with those officers. >> dr. saphier: you reap what you sow. elections have consequences, and we are seeing it right now. if anyone is surprised we have modern-day sons of anarchy, you shouldn't be. all of 2020, defining the police, vilifying the police as well as the military and strict mandates on them and making them do the diversity training throughout the last few years. it could really change what it means to be in the military. we lost focus on what the rule of the police and military are. if you take away or lessen the consequences for bad action,

people will continue to do those bad actions. we have to have the consequences. otherwise, the criminals will have the right. >> dagen: karen bass the new mayor of los angeles said, defund the police and i paraphrase the three dumbest words that could be possibly edward. at the same time, illinois is now in the new year introducing more and more. bail reform. so maybe it changes in los angeles but it's going the wrong direction. speak with the damage has been done. speaking of california, used to live in the bay area. when i would go to san francisco he is to say i felt more afghanistan in a combat zone then walking around the streets of san francisco dodging needles and crazy people screaming at me. these things actually happened. as we said, we reap what we sow. the cops are facing a lose-lose

different identities at three or four years old. this is what the country is turning into peer the influence at home can only go so far after a certain point, your culture embraces, your child embraces the culture around them as well. this is the direction we are going in. >> dr. saphier: dagen, the very people calling on feminists to step up, the feminists are the ones contributing to the fact that we can't be proud to be a woman anymore because anybody can be a woman appearance be when i think there was a lot of decades where a lot of people turned the word feminist into something that was hyper negative. and that is kind of in hindsight truly sad. but the reason people don't speak up to ulta for these companies is because you get shut down. you get called an entire array of names. if you have a problem with their
