kyle rudolph, thank you for being here today. >> bill: great guy. always made the right decisions. >> dana: how are you feeling about sunday? >> bill: i'm nervous. i'll be in kansas city but you have to be nervous. >> dana: the more nervous the better the bengals do. worry yourself. >> bill: i shall, i'm there. >> dana: harris faulkner might not be worried. she have is a kansas fan. here she is. >> bill: good luck. >> harris: good luck, bill. we'll both need it. fox news alert now. americans gripped by economic troubles and some horrible choices they are having to make. this as the first two years of the biden administration and here is what the tea delivered. inflation nightmare, social security at risk, raging debt, the president says points the finger at republicans, though. i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus." biden yesterday tooting his own horn on the economy and going

after speaker of the house kevin mccarthy over the fringe bill that may not even come up for a vote. >> president biden: they introduced another vote. raising taxes on working class people taxing groceries, gasoline, clothing, supplies, medicine. even big ticket items like rent and cars. 30% sales tax on all those issues. speaker of the house says he is not sure he is for it now. blessed father free of sin. >> harris: wow, okay. speaking of not being able to get along. that would be a sign of it there saying things like that the president oddly was digging in over the debt limit. even though you saw on this program yesterday senator rick scott of florida and others now chiming in we're ready to negotiate with the president. the president is not interested in negotiation. >> president biden: the very notion that we would default on the safest, most respected debt

in the world is mind-boggling. i will not let anyone use the full faith and credit of the united states as a bargaining chip. >> harris: no mention of the $6 trillion and counting in new spending over his first two years in office. you know he wants to spend more. he also touted the fourth quarter economic growth. however, new gdp numbers are drawing comparisons to the great depression. a key measure of economic strength, real disposable income falling off a cliff in 2022. down by more than $1 trillion. a level that we have not seen as a nation since 1932. a new op-ed argues president biden's policies are not helping. here is a quote. the biggest risks to the economy other than higher interest rates this year are probably the tax increases in the inflation reduction act and regulatory onslaught that are compounding business uncertainty. charles payne host of making money on fox business. all right.

lean in hard on this and tell us what we need to know. >> let's start with the trillion dollars for the year. that's real disposable income gone, vanished. real disposable income, hourly wages have been down in this country 21 months in a row. guess when it start evidence? when the $1.9 trillion went out that sparked all of this. it's interesting. the president can brag about gdp, a nominal number. gdp at 5%. that's all the money out there. but real life, real struggles when -- i said this many times. if you can go in a store and give you an extra $1 hundred and you come up with one fewer bags, something is wrong. i gave you an extra $1 hundred. what you didn't tell me you screwed things up so bad it doesn't go as far as it would have gone if you would have let me earn it on my own. i like this warning, too. the tax and inflation reduction act and the war on business.

we saw a salvo chevron and a buy back. we need businesses to invest. we don't need the government to move out business. right now the federal government is too large a portion of our overall gdp and need to move out of the way. americans know how to invent things. all the great inventions if you think about over the last 20 or 30 years, 90% have come out of this country, they really have. >> harris: the only reason the president and politicians in general have their jobs is because of us. they wouldn't be sitting there if they weren't taking some kind of salary. it comes from taxpayer dollars and from our votes. our own larry kudlow as both networks fox news channel and fox business larry kudlow laid into biden and the democrats over their claims on the economy. watch this. >> mr. biden and the democrats will say anything. frankly it goes beyond cognitive

dissonance. it is a total law that they've used forever to attempt to turn a lie to a truth through reputation. mr. biden is out there today praising the gdp report for the fourth quarter. well, if i were you, i wouldn't, mr. president. >> harris: according to larry spending is now at 24% of the gdp is what we were talking about. a quarter of our total economy. he says isn't that enough? >> one of the reasons president biden lies a lot is because the media gives him cover. i tell you when it comes to financial reporting one of the things that gets me so upset. wall street they always take these consensus and go to analysts and get a consensus. all the analysts think whatever your number might be it will be down minus ten. then it comes in minus nine. it beat the analysts. it was strong. that one is like i want to scream. the gdp number, 70% of our gdp is consumer. down for the quarter.

here is the thing and the irony. wall street thought it would be close to 3%. retail sales was down big time. this morning personal income and spending. here is the thing. spending went down more than everyone thought. savings right now is back to 3.4% from 2.9%. the american public once again the person going in the store to getting less even though they have more money, they see something dark on the horizon. we went from 2.9 to 3.4 percent in two months. people are bracing for things to get worse. >> harris: they aren't listening necessarily to all the analysts the fact. >> they live life. they see i it. they've seen it before. listen. we were sift up a lot of money was given out and a great, fun time. everyone had fun. a lot of it was spent and we're paying a huge price for it. >> harris: who had fun? >> people spent a lot of money. airlines have fun. >> harris: now look at them. >> the ceo of louis vuitton

became rich. >> harris: look at the airlines. investigation into how eggs cost now. >> that's what happen when you artificially do this. there is always a cost. you can't just print money up and send out checks to get reelected. there is a cost a lot more than the money people had. the fun was short lived. >> harris: by only a few people. biden rolled out this familiar attack on republicans yesterday during his speech. >> president biden: they want to cut your social security and medicare. now this is the god's truth. almost unbelievable. >> harris: senator kennedy not letting that one go and neither did rick scott. >> well, that's -- president biden says my party, i, want to gut social security and medicare and medicaid. and that's just not true. not even george santos would

make up a whopper like that. and the president knows that. >> harris: oh man. >> no one is better than senator kennedy. >> harris: rick scott was on yesterday and he said we'll do everything that we can to protect not just social security and medicare for right now he said there is enough money but both of those programs down the road because democrats are the ones who want to cut it, medicare in particular. >> we have to be honest about social security. when it was instituted the average woman lived to be 62, the average man 59. never a sincere policy. we got the idea from europe. bismarck came up with the idea. offer them to push back. so we never -- it was never intended to do anything for us at the time. it was to play indicate us. we started living longer and the amount of money promised was never going to add up based on what they are investing.

we need to have a honest to goodness conversation. in europe you want to see what countries are raising their retirement age? europe where they don't like to work, they've got to work now. italy has gone from 65 to almost 70. netherlands, spain, every country in europe that's notorious for taking siestas, they have to work longer now. >> harris: does it include the two months of vacation during the summer? they could cut that time. i'm sure they have thoughts on how we work and how hard we work and how we don't take as many breaks. >> the point is there are things demographically. you can't have the same people say we shouldn't have people because they harm the planet complaining about social security. there won't be anybody to pay into social security. we're on the same path. we need to be honest. we cannot break the birth rate in our country or have -- argue that people should not have children and wonder where money will come from for the older folks who are retiring.

it is not going to work. >> harris: i was joking about the europeans. you know, this sounds crazy to me. i don't use that word lightly but it really does. this is the third week we're talking about gas stoves and the right for people to cook the way they want to cook. in the greatest country on the planet. the biden administration official who started it all and then walked it back is speaking out. a "washington post" profile calls the consumer product safety commissioner the man who unwittingly triggered the war over the appliance. he told the outlet the anger over a potential ban is misdirected and gas stove risks are real. he says people can decide for themselves. well, that's the important part, right? new op-ed tells gas stove lovers beware, though, here is the quote. don't believe for a second they aren't coming for your stove or the media narrative that

republicans are hyping a new culture war. there is a coordinated, calculated strategy to kill them off. tell us about it. >> it is true. this is where democrats are great. liberals are great. they plant seeds on these things so long ago. i saw these little articles here and there 5, 6, 78 years ago, harris. they plant them and start to get them in schools and then it starts to be a narrative in movies and then it is just so -- they really got the public relations part of this down. no one triggered it. it was a trial balloon. we're almost ready to hit the pedal now and for a decade laid the ground work for this and scared enough people just here and there. now let's float up the first trial balloon. this idea won't go away. >> harris: they must hate small businesses. >> they hate the notion of anyone in this country still believes they can pull themselves up by their bootstraps. nothing makes them madder than

that. >> harris: the millions of small businesses out there. name the big portion of them who are so eager to go out and replace every appliance they have to open up tomorrow. that's ridiculous. >> no one is. it's tough. >> harris: thank you. good to see you. happy new year. the classified documents scandal has caught up three names mentioned in talk of 2024 now. president biden, former president trump and former vice president pence. now the national archives is asking more former presidents and v.p.s to double-check for anything they should not have in their possession. that request went to leaders from the last six administrations. that time frame covered by the presidential records act of 1981. peter doocy live at the white house with more on this. peter. >> president biden is going to camp david this morning and -- this evening and look what happened when somebody asked him if he is going there because something is happening at his beach house this weekend?

>> [inaudible question] >> the first lady running interference. we spoke to the office of george w. bush, one of the former presidents that got a letter from the archives asking them to do an assessment of possible classified materials. the bush office wrote back to the archives they're confident they don't have anything will like that. on capitol hill lawmakers are steamed at the director of national intelligence haines for not telling them more about these documents. in a closed hearing this week. we hear from haines about issues she has with overclassification. >> first we need to continue working on the development of a system that promotes the appropriate classification of information when identified to begin with and minimizes what is classified as an initial matter. secondly, we need to facilitate the downgrading and declassification of information

as it ages to promote sharing and disclosure to enhance accountability and trust and to support our work across government as well as with partners and allies. >> nothing on the president's schedule today. we expect to hear from his press secretary early this afternoon. >> dana: kellyanne conway says those are the most interesting words. nothing on the president or vice president's plans on this friday. good to see you. thank you, peter. treasury department smacking down republicans request for information on hunter biden's financial records. the gop calling it a co-op nateed move to protect the president's son. not just republicans anymore. progressives are going after the biden administrations policies on the border. >> this administration is making it impossible to seek refuge at our border. president biden should listen to the courts and human rights activists and reverse course. >> harris: when you lose aoc. it is not just her, though,

>> harris: breaking news now. video of the attack on paul pelosi is now set to be released as early as noon eastern. a judge ordered that earlier this week. the release of 911 calls, police body cam footage and surveillance video from the pelosi residence the day of the attack back in october 2022. audio from police interviews and alleged attacker also set to be released. former house speaker nancy pelosi reportedly said yesterday she has not seen any of this material, the videos, does not

know if she'll watch them. the treasury department is blocking republicans' request for records related to hunter biden's financial deals. the department told oversight chairman james comer quote, it is important that a requesting committee specify in writing its purpose so that the department can make a determination as to whether the disclosure is appropriate. the chairman of oversight comer accused the biden administration of a coordinated effort to protect the president's son. >> listen, i don't think we have to spend much time trying to prove to the american people he has been involved in some shady business schemes with our adversaries around the world. we want to make sure this administration is not compromised. >> harris: sean duffy co-host of the bottom line and former representative. this seems like a child's pat, pat on the head for republicans.

of course we know why they would want to see documents relating to hunter biden. >> now we know why joe biden changed the policy for treasury. interesting when congress asked they received. joe biden comes into office and says we have to change this policy. we need more information, we need to stone wall should republicans eventually take over because joe biden knew of those sars reports, the suspicious activity reports at treasury. those reports on hunter i believe will lead to joe biden. but this is a cover-up, harris. it is a multi--agency cover-up. you have intelligence, f.b.i., d.o.j., i.r.s. and now treasury working together to make sure the american people don't understand or see the scheme between hunter and joe that dates back to joe biden in the vice presidentsy. how could that happen? america? barack obama did a great job of bringing in high-level people

into all of government. there truly is a deep state and run by liberals and they may not like what hunter biden and joe biden did but if they don't have hunter and joe they have republicans. that's unacceptable to them so they are now forced to saying we need to protect hunter and joe from republicans getting this information, the american people seeing this information. it is disgusting. >> harris: it is so interesting. if the request is a sars request on hunter biden you said it. suspicious activity report. the name tells you why you would want it. it seems so simple. all right. let's get to this. ist is about hunter having to do with his art dealer responding to a request from congressman james comer, remember chairman of oversight now, for information about hunter's art as part of a wide investigation into the biden family. he said his art gives us hope. hunter biden will become one of the most conscious -- didn't

you have his art hanging over your toilet in the bathroom? >> it is in our guest bathroom in our house. it is not a real one. a print of it hanging in the office. pete hegseth gave it to rachel and we hung it. i don't know if he knew we would hang it there. listen. beauty is in the eye of the beholder. i can't judge hunter's artwork. i am not an artist and i don't judge art. congress doesn't care about the beauty or lack of it in hunter's work. they're saying what relationships does the studio that is selling hunter's art have with the white house and maybe the sellers -- the purchasers who bought the art. what relationship do they have to the white house? and there is no answers coming on this. that is the question. not whether hunter is a good or bad artist. was the white house involved and

other people buying the art asking the white house for something in return is what this congress wants to know, not the quality of his paintings. >> harris: to be clear you are talking about a print that is pennies to the dollars compared to the hundreds of thousands of dollars that people are willing to spend for the originals. >> harris: the disaster at the u.s. southern border. this is after the biden administration announced new plans to restrict asylum access for people at the southern border. more than 70 democrats in the house and senate sent biden a letter pushing him to reconsider his own politics. some rhetoric is getting heated. the list of dems mad at him. >> there can be no confusing the biden administration's immigration policy with the trump administration's. but doing better than trump doesn't mean it shouldn't be the bar. >> yes, we have dark chapters

like when the st. louis during the holocaust sailed to our shores and was turned around where folks were sent back to those horrors and many died. >> harris: why are they so upset, sean? >> cory booker's compareson is disgusting. they want to allow more asylum seekers into the country. joe biden is not a big guy on the border but he has trying to restrict how many asylum seekers we can have. the question for most americans are why can't congress deal with this border? the clip you played right there. there are republicans who say we need to know who comes in and who doesn't. democrats in these clips are admitting we want this thing wide open. here is my concern. to seek asylum you have to make the claim and prove that you are persecuted. if we have millions of people around the world being persecuted like what happened per cory booker's point in the

holocaust, where is the expo say on cnn and "new york times" and the stories about all the people being persecuted that need to seek refuge in the united states. we know it's bogus. people are coming for economic freedom. all these claims are illegitimate and ngo, taxpayer money go down to these countries and teach people what they have to say to get in the country to lie to claim asylum when really they aren't being persecuted. they just want freedom. >> harris: is that where they get the t-shirts with biden's name on them? >> i think they do. >> harris: i've been to the border in the last four months and in september it was an important time to go when the numbers start evidence to go up into the historic territory they are sitting at now. the thank you joe biden shirts and the -- people have a real connection in their mind that this president's policies have delivered an open door already. so when you see people on the left in the house, what do they want?

the president has capitulateed already to their side. >> but they are globalists. they don't want any borders, global citizenship. consolidated set of elites that have control or power of everyone in the world. >> harris: it will be the united globe of america. >> that's right. we don't want that. that's why we have to push back and why you see this divide. that's what it is. >> harris: we want legal immigration. open borders is not the same thing. the release of body cam footage of the killing of tyre nichols death in memphis is putting major cities on alert. it is expected to come out later this afternoon. after all five officers involved were charged with second degree murder, four of them have bonded out of jail already. stay close.

for violent protests tonight after the release of police body cam footage from the fatal attack on tyre nichols due to come out at 6:00 p.m. local time in memphis. georgia's governor has declared a state of emergency in response. and already atlanta is a tinderbox following protesting there in recent days. activating 1,000 national guard troops is what the governor has done. the five former police officers are facing charges of second degree murder. the mayor of memphis speaking out. >> the actions of these officers were awful and no one, including law enforcement, is above the law. it is clear that these officers violated the department's policies and training. but we are doing everything we can to prevent this from happening again. we must all work to regain the

public's trust. and work together to heal the wounds these events have caused. >> harris: charles watson is in memphis for us. this is horrible all around. tyre nichols family, the city's businesses bracing for what could come. those always get hard hit in situations like this that we pray won't happen. >> that's right, harris. look, at the very least officials here in memphis are expecting protests once body cam video showing the violent beating of tyre nichols at the hands of police officers is released later this evening. the memphis police chief and others who have seen the video have described it as heinous and criminal. that said, harris, city officials along with the parents of nichols are urging protestors to keep any demonstrations that may arise in the coming days non-violent. >> this boy took a horrific -- i want each and every one of you

to protest in peace. i don't want us burning up our cities, tearing up the streets because that's not what my son stood for. >> as you can imagine, tensions are running high as people prepare to view that body cam video. according to attorneys representing nichols' namly shows memphis police officers kick, tase and pepper spray him that led to his death three days later on thursday. a grand jury indicted all five former memphis police officers chargeding them each with second degree murder, aggravated assault and kidnapping and official misconduct and oppression. they were all booked into the shelby county jail. this morning only former officer haley remains. we just learned that he did post bond and should be out shortly. the memphis police chief says the charges in this case are absolutely appropriate while attorneys for at least two of

the men say they plan to plead not guilty. >> you are going to see acts that defy humanity. you are going to see a disregard for life. >> no one out there that night intended for tyre nichols to die. no one. no one. >> in the word from civil rights attorney ben crump representing the family is tyre nichols equals rodney king part ii. that could be a precursor to what we'll hear from mr. crump and nick nichol's family. i want to bring in heather hanssen and jonna spilbor.

it is so heartbreaking for this family. the mom has described what it was like, the mom and dad to watch their child beaten to death by five men who were much larger than he and obviously armed. this is so hard. talk to me about the law in this instance, though. and how it works, heather, bond applies to everybody. everybody is innocent until proven guilty. >> that's right. everyone is innocent until proven guilty. it will be difficult to overcome the video. everyone will see this video. and then to find a jury that has not either seen it or not let it influence them is going to be very difficult. but right now what we know is that the charges are second degree murder, not first degree murder. other charges underneath that. we will see what the defense attorneys come forward with as the case moves along in the process. >> harris: i said bond applies to everyone. of course, in this case is what i would add to that.

talk to me, if you would, jonna, about the family, though. and you hear them calling for peaceful protests. we have seen so much destruction since the death of george floyd and the people whose businesses and livelihoods that become collateral damage to what should be peaceful protesting. are we seeing enough of that dealt with with justice? >> no, absolutely not. and i have to say i'm so happy that the family has come out and with that message but you know it is going to fall on deaf ears. i'm really concerned with the fact that have we inadvertently created more of the monster we've been trying to avoid by our treatment of police over the last three years. why do i say that, harris? i say it. this wasn't 1 or 2 officers. five officers, five. you would think even if there

were one bad apple in this event the other four would stop. but had they come to the aid of each other because we've created more of that mentality? trying to fight against it? i know it's not a legal argument and more philosophical. you say why does the country have to brace for this? why do we need 1,000 troops to come into a city to brace for what we'll see tonight? it is a sad, sad situation. >> harris: it is a heartbreaking situation because i can't imagine anything on that tape is less than what the police chief called it defying humanity. and you put it so beautifully, though and tip us into the next category. this is not all cops. i can't imagine to be a police officer today and to know this is going on. it is really tough and it pits people against each other even more. but we'll follow the case, the legal part of it as it happens

and pray that our country can hold together tonight when that tape is released. let's move to this. day two of testimony in the double murder trial of alex murdaugh. he is charged with the killing of his wife and son in 2021 when the three of us first came together as we were watching this live yesterday. he was visibly emotional inside the courtroom yesterday as 911 clips played before a jury. revealing gruesome details about the accused and the first officer on the scene the night of the killings. let's watch. >> what was this discussion about right there >> it was to determine if there was an additional firearm on scene already, possibly under paul. there was 300 blackout casing found near maggie and trying to figure out if there was a 300 blackout rifle under paul. >> harris: your reaction. >> the emotion is real.

i know the prosecution wants to paint it as not so. it was real yesterday. there was more emotion today, harris, that i saw listening to his own interrogation speaking of the son who he loved incredibly. he did break down again in court today. >> harris: does any of that matter if he committed crimes? heather. >> no, you can be emotional for a host of reasons. he had a lot of things happen to him in the days leading up to this and the financial transgressions coming to light. they can be explained a host of ways. the jury will decide on the evidence or lack of when it comes to the end of the long and evidence-full trial. >> harris: we'll cover it into next week. it has been a riveting first couple days of testimony. thank you. republicans rejoicing as they look at the 2024 senate map. the states they are targeting to try to recapture the majority in

the senate. plus president biden at it again in his latest speech. sean hannity speaking for a lot of people here. >> his bizarre, disjointed speech was almost impossible for anybody to comprehend. is this the person that's really capable of conducting debt ceiling negotiations? does he fully comprehend and understand what is exactly going on? >> harris: a whole bunch of brand-new gaffes raising questions about a presidential -- potential presidential re-election bid in 2024. ari fleischer in "focus" next. kids are so expensive, dad. now katie needs braces. maybe try switching your car insurance to progressive. you could save hundreds. i don't know, dad. ♪ maybe try switching your car insurance to progressive.

you could save hundreds. that's a great idea, tv dad. but i said the exact same thing. some day when you're a father, you'll understand. i'm his father. it's not a competition. listen to your tv dad. drivers who switch and save with progressive save nearly $700 on average.

>> harris: who is doug? that's the question many people watching president biden's speech on the economy in virginia had to be wondering. >> president biden: i said that when i was seeking the nomination. i said take a seat everybody. there wasn't a single chair in the place. where is doug? congressman.

he is around here somewhere. oh, there you are. doug and i have something in common. i've been saying this during the last campaign. the off-year campaign. doug knows. >> harris: getting at bideny up in there. doug was not in the room. doug is actually don. virginia democratic congressman. he realized the error after calling doug, doug five timings and it should have been don. gaffes like this are raising concern about a potential 2024 run. the daily mail with this headline. is this how 2024 is going to go, joe? quote, biden makes jokes about himself being stupid. then gets congressman's name wrong in speech of shouts and whispers saying republicans want to be party of chaos and catastrophe. ari fleischer, fox news

contributor, former white house press secretary. we didn't show all the parts where -- it went off the rails. not sure why. >> you know, the president said he had no regrets about taking classified informationhim. this case congressman's last name is buyer. i wonder if he has buyer's remorse. all politicians do slip up on names but joe biden does it all the time. the issue isn't is he stupid. the issue is we all know with any 80-year-old, is he with it? does he forget things? this happens to people at that age. it is part of aging. and that's what he refuses to say. he can string some sentences together but he also forgets, gets lost in mid sentence. every time he walks he looks ancient. he has an age issue. it is not inappropriate to say that. we can see it with our own eyes

and hear it with our own ea >> harris: minor incursion putin took. when you describe it like that it makes you wonder how long it has been going on that the president just can't separate what he should say from what comes out of his mouth. >> it's the regular old gaffes. those are the gaffes you see with elderly. do you really want a president of the united states to be at that age? that's a huge issue. he will be 82 when he runs for re-election. he looks like he will run for re-election, the silver lining. i can't think of anybody i would rather run against. >> harris: i can't think of anybody who wouldn't want to run speaking of republicans. this is a new hampshire poll and they agree by the way. 2 2024 presidential primary poll in new hampshire has the

president trailing mayor pete buttigieg from indiana tied with senator elizabeth warren. your take. >> make no mistake. democrats want to defeat donald trump and they will unify and rally to defeat him and whoever likely republican nominee is. but what you are seeing is a yearning inside the democratic party for a generational change. it goes back to what we were talking about. there is a huge segment of the democratic party who looks at joe biden and says he is too old. it is time for younger leadership. they did that in the house of representatives and now they want to do that as well in the presidency. joe biden will stand in the way of that and he needs to have a very strong year this year, otherwise he is going to be vo vulnerable in a primary at the end of this year. >> harris: he may still explain why he is the only one with documents marked top secret. those are the ones that count.

republicans are loving it but it is giving democrats the blues. the political report with the headline for its first 2024 senate race ratings. democrats are on defense. 23 of their seats are up for re-election or open. just 11 republican seats are up. the gop is feeling pretty good about flipping four states and taking the majority. kyrsten sinema in the swing state of arizona, tester in monday monday and joe manchin in west virginia. trump won those states in 2020. getting an early start with an ad calls. >> italian sports car, luxury yacht, more than $1 million spent on fine dining. life is very good for democrat joe manchin. while west virginiaians get stuck with higher prices, smaller paychecks and open borders. >> harris: it is starting early.

>> that's a he is not one of us and an out of touch ad. let me give a caution for republicans. history says that 2024 should be a powerful year for republicans in the senate based on just the demographics of what states are up and how many democrats are up compared to how many republicans. but history also said republicans should have had huge gains in 2022. we're in a different political era. that is in part the focus on a referendum on joe biden but still a referendum on republicans and donald trump whether people are scared of republicans and therefore even though they would have been inclined to vote against democrats they won't. they will vote democrat. as much as the landscape is good for republicans historically, i throw those measures out the window for this upcoming cycle. we don't know what we're heading into yet and it will depend who is at the top of the ticket. >> harris: it is great advice. we don't know who will be in
