cover for reckless spending. alexandria hoff live in washington with the very latest. alexandria, good morning. >> good morning, ashley, todd last week white house press secretary karine jean-pierre said it was not over. that was four months after the president said this. speak with the pandemic is over. we still have a problem with covid. we are still doing a lot of work on it, but the pandemic is over. >> eight months after the president made that statement more than three years after and acted, the white house will end two national emergencies stating this, "at present the emergency declarations extended to may 11th and end both emergencies on that date. this would align with the administration's previous commitment to give 60 days notice prior to the termination of the phd." the republicans to manning for spending come with the declarations needs to end now. $817 billion in stimulus checks,
1:02 am
$678 billion in employment, 39 million in housing programs. steve scalise sharing the statement rather than waiting until may 11th, the biden administration should join us now immediately to end this declaration and the biden administration has lagged behind attempting to keep things shut down under the guise of covid. house republicans making sure the days of the biden administration to hide behind covid to waste billions of tax paler dollars under radical agenda are over. the white house has used the national covid emergencies to defend president biden student loan forgiveness program but this also allowed title 42 border policy to remain in place. the administration warns abrupt end to it is insight, "if hr 382 becomes law and title 42 restrictions in precipitously, congress will be requiring the administration to allow thousands of migrants per day
1:03 am
into the country immediately without necessary policies in place. as for the covid funds, the house oversight committee will hold a hearing on federal pandemics bending, waste, fraud and abuse. that will take place tomorrow. ashley, torta. >> todd: alexandria hoff, thank you very much. at least we are focusing because the recent the democrats specifically joe biden want to continue the emergency as long as possible is because it keeps the money spigot on. again i don't think we can reiterate how much this pandemic cost us come in terms of lives, obviously but $11 trillion in overall federal government spending since the start of the pandemic. there it is on your screen, again, they want to get this money spigot on. and ashley, hallmark of leadership is clarity. am i alone went the story came out yesterday, even now i'm confused as to what the messages?
1:04 am
are we in a pandemic emergency or not in a pandemic emergency? what is the deal? >> ashley: you can't have it both ways. you can't declare it over and then say, we will keep it intact the day that it was going to end. but there again, it is the biden administration trying to have it both ways. i think that has a lot of people scratching their heads this morning. kind of to your point. when you look at the money that was spent and i was looking at "the washington post." we know which way they lean, that the headline, where did the covid aid money go? they broke it all down and brought up the stimulus checks. that was a big chunks of taxpayer dollars to keep people afloat. this is going back to 2020, june of 2020. this is a personal situation. when i went down to florida in 2020, it was the most impact it had ever been. people i spoke to, while matt, people must not be hurt too bad. oh, no this is stimulus money
1:05 am
spending on vacation and stuff like that. i wonder how much of the money actually went to help people that needed help. did they use that money right? really, the way it looks right now is the loser in this situation is the american taxpayer. >> todd: 100% because they use the good nature and the laws that require the taxpayer to pay taxes to fund their vision of government which is a socialist form of government. what they should have done if the government shutdown your business for covid, they should have compensated you. for example, restaurants, i have no problem with restaurants given extra money to get by during tough times may be to keep those people on the payroll so when the times and prove they can hire it back. instead, to your point they gave money to literally everybody. look at those numbers. think about the budget of your state. a state budget, a big deal. my state is like $42 billion. that is a drop in the bucket compared to the numbers that we had on the screen right there,
1:06 am
ashley. >> ashley: a new poll shows americans don't think inflation or illegal immigration are the country's top problems. allegiance to the latest gallup poll 21% of americans believe leadership of elected officials is the most important problem plaguing the nation. >> todd: that is interesting inflation and emigration an 11% of the vote, unifying the country rallying out the top five with race relations, poverty, crime and the ethical, moral, family decline. i'm a little bit shocked that that is there, but when you think about the american people have seen from congress, from this president, you are not as shocked. we put these people in office to lead peer that is ultimately why we vote for them. so many of the people that we see in the halls of congress within the white house are there because they are career politicians here they got into this quite frankly for the wrong
1:07 am
reasons. they got into it to better themselves and not necessarily better the country. >> ashley: even though they say they're number one issue is poor leadership, if we could just pull that full-screen backup of the percentage -- there we go, 21% is poor leadership here this is a trickle-down effect. if you have good leadership you wouldn't have inflation issues or immigration problems or overall economy in shambles. you wouldn't have crime and violence. when you have a good, solid leader, which i put this on the democrats. lately, they are saying that house is going to undo what we have done. lord have mercy come i hope that they do because the last two years have been rough as far as crime and inflation in the economy. this really goes to they are blamed here they had the president, they have the senate and they have a house. was nowhere else. >> todd: one final note, open thing about when they took the
1:08 am
information that led to this poll can lead to these poll numbers come of course, is still ongoing. i think the american people look at that and say, wow if these people can't be responsible for paper, how can they be responsible for the whole country? as we know, this is not just a national problem, speaking chicago mayor of lori lightfoot taking after this tone-deaf video of her dancing in the streets. she is ignoring the crises in her city pair of that city facing a 61% increase in crime. >> ashley: dr. willie wilson is running against her for chicago mayor as an independent. he joins us now. doctor, thank you for getting up with us this morning. you are running against lightfoot for the mayoral race. what are you doing and what are you saying to people in chicago to get them to vote for you and not her? >> first off, what we are doing is running against like the crime is very high.
1:09 am
and we are trying to make sure that the police officer was confident and can take their handcuffs off to the police officers to do their job who want to commit the crime. and also they commit a crime, never get caught and then for next week they have to commit another crime. and police officers are too afraid to do something to arrest them or they will be convicted themselves. when a person shames another person, they cannot chase the crook who did it. so, we have to relax and take some of the old rules off and use common sense. so crime is number one problem.
1:10 am
it is here in chicago. in around the country. we need to make some changes and get it stopped and taken care of. i don't even want to get paid. i just want to stop the crime so everybody can be saved. >> todd: along those lines would you make of lori lightfoot dancing while literally her city metaphorically burns? >> well, i think she is the worst mayor that we have ever had in the country really. i don't think she gets it at a all. she can't seem to relate to the people, especially the police officer then turned their back on her. so, we are tired and the election is on february 28. i intend to replace her.
1:11 am
>> ashley: overall crime is up 61%. that is compared to the same time period 2022 in chicago. you said a man on the go, there needs to be changes as far as the rules and trying to get crime under control. what is the main change that we need to make to solve this? >> well, first of all, you have to give the police officers the time off. they need to take a lot of restriction off that they have in terms of their particular j job. one of them in particular you cannot change the course of dictate and you cannot chase them down on foot. you cannot chase them down by car or that nature. they need to have off days and they need to be paid more in my opinion. those type of things right there need to be changed immediately. and you have to use the media to
1:12 am
start talking to people and get involved. and you need the rest of these people, i mean all laws, everybody. >> todd: if somebody does something wrong, they have to be behind bars. a simple solution and i don't know why lori lightfoot doesn't understand that. dr. wilson we appreciate your time and insight, thank you sir. alec baldwin charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter with killing halyna hutchins pair of those churches could land alec baldwin up to six and a half years behind bars. this all began on october 241, 2021 when alec baldwin pointed prop gun when practicing a scene when it went off and striking her in the chest and bracing another crew member in the shoulder. the actor was elected to mike allegedly told that the revolver was not loaded but alec baldwin maintaining he did not pull the

>> if you look at the platforms, at age 13 is when kids are technically allowed to use social media. i personally on the data i have seen believe it is too early. it is a time early adolescence where kids are developing their identity, sense of self and skewed and often destroyed environment of social media often does a disservice to many children. >> ashley: the surgeon general warning parents about the dangers of social media sagging 13-year-olds are too young to be on the platform. when it comes to vaxxed kids, they were quick to show support. the doctor is a research scientist and joins me now,
1:21 am
good morning to you. with your background of being a research scientist, do you think the biden administration is focusing on the right thing when it comes to our children in america? >> ashley, good to see you. good morning, thank you for having me on. this is a very good question. first of all, i applied surgeon general dr. murphy for drawing attention to social media and our young children. the social media in an unsupervised, rampant manner leads to a lot of issues with self image and can lead to depression, suicide modality and drug use and we know they make children targets of online bullies and online predators and social media by kids has a lot of different effects and quite a few publications that have proven what we already know intuitively. i think drawing that same type of attention now and the need for parental supervision should be critical but not only to
1:22 am
social media, but also, parental supervision towards other aspects of children's lives especially when it comes to management of any health issues we talk about covid, the government pushing coming from the surgeon general's office and the cdc from both sides that children have to be vaccinated as young as six months, as you said. the problem is, where are the parents here? where are the parent will decision? parents love their kids much more than the government does. >> ashley: write. i wonder because of covid and the shutdowns come a lot of issues were exasperated. now we have a bunch of children running rampant, doing whatever they want. the parents have no clue what is going on. my friend brought this up to me when it comes to social media. her children are ten and 13. if i don't give my kids social media and the option to play games, they will be left completely behind because that is only way kids communicate these days. what would you say to her to
1:23 am
solve these problems and is there a problem solving skill to this? >> absolutely. social media is replacing something that we started to lose even before covid hit and relic celebrate at the loss once the pandemic hit. taken out of class, out of school come out of playdates, social activities, birthday parties, playing at the park, et cetera and replaced it with the screen. an online virtual world. i think it is up to parents. i did that with my kids. it is costly and you had to put effort into it and not something you can automatically do. parents need to proactively say, you know what, what we will take you off plane and get you to gather with the same people in the real world. let's take it to the park, have a real party, have them over to the house, anything peer to substitute for the social media. because kids are in a point in life where they don't have the capacity to process the complex things they see online, much
1:24 am
coming from adult much is inappropriate. taking kids off-line and putting them back into social situation with other kids in a supervised manner is only way to go. >> ashley: if you think we don't do things like putting kids in extracurricular activities like sports after school, we will have a big problem with our future? this seems like it is in a downward spiral if people can't get their kids off social media come up with these gaming sites and really back into a more social setting talking person to person. >> yeah, research has shown very recently, in fact, that the more time kids spend at screens and on social media, the less time they spend in person with people, the worse the academic performance and the worse the social performance. they can't communicate as well. they become more introverted, withdrawn and all of that will impact them socially in the future as adults as well.
1:25 am
i think it is absolutely critical that we place an emphasis on this. the role of the parents is key because kids learning going on social media on their own, they are not to buying devices by themselves or internet access. the families are providing them. as much as the families are providing them, there is also a responsibility on the parents to really supervise and say, okay, here are the boundaries. this is enough. let's move on into something actionable. >> ashley: i couldn't imagine being a child growing up and covid and everything online. i think it is tough and tougher the parents too. dr. hemmati, thank you for your insight this morning. i have a good day. >> thanks, ashley. >> todd: president biden being called tone-deaf to show how he's helping the middle class with his efforts with fossil fuels. he says, "not on my watch." the american road trip will be totally electrified to purity

1:27 am
that pawn stars reference. again, i just can't comprehend how they are this tone-deaf. i mean, they have to know about the inflation pressures that we are all under. they also have to know that $80,000 for a car is a lot of money. >> ashley: i don't think they care. all i can say is i don't think they care. >> todd: in the meantime, there is also this camping outside of a ritzy hotel refusing to go to eric adams, "inhumane shelter." >> ashley: will president biden address it as a whole when he visits the big apple? we have a live report. we have a live report. ♪ ♪ or the off road. ♪ the gmc sierra heavy duty. premium and capable. step up to gmc with 3.9% apr for 5 years

jackie ibanez with the latest. >> good morning to memphis police department officer pressed on him phil and another unnamed officer relieved of their duties when the investigation into his death, 1 of 3 officers on the scene when he was officially pulled over. he was shown pulling nichols out of his car and could be saying, "i hope they stomp his expletive" in body cam footage. and why is his identity and the ball he played in tyre's death coming to life. this brutal attack was shielded and protected from the public eye and to date sufficient discipline and accountability. memphis fired two emts and emergency vehicle driver responding to the scene. the fire officials provide tyre nichols with the care he needed. two emts with the nature of the call that a person was pepper sprayed and information they were told on the scene and
1:34 am
failed to conduct an adequate patient assessment of mr. nichols. though he hasn't made any yet, the district attorney is not going to stop. and they fall out from the shocking body cam footage of his death. >> todd: jackie, thank you. former white house marc thiessen said democrats stood in the way of meaningful police reform. listen. bake on tim scott introduced the justice act, he included democrat proposals like making lynching egg hate crime and choke holds and offered unlimited amendments and they filibustered it because they did not want by trump to sign into law. that is why we don't have that law today. >> todd: day six of the murder trial wrapping up with a special agent who oversaw the crime scene concluded, there could
1:35 am
have been two shooters involved. >> >> it is a reasonable explanation one shooter is running up that way, correct? >> ashley: former fbi agent jennifer joins us now. good morning to you. i want to run this sound bite. this alex murdaugh's lawyers ad contamination of the crime scene and we will talk on the other side. speak with [indistinct] not called, not the perpetrator but the police officer. and in your business, the rules about who should be walking through crime scenes, right? >> preferably has few people as possible. >> jennifer, how does this information coming to light change the trajectory of this
1:36 am
trial? >> i don't think it is that relevant come honestly. the defense is trying to deter the big fact that was disclosed and that is the ballistics that came out, which is that they show casings found next to maggie matt show casings found at the private range. that is the big point here. so the footprint because an individual who is involved in law enforcement was putting a marker down is really irrelevant and just a distraction. >> todd: what about the two shooters defense, is that convincing to you, jennifer? >> it was normal. the defense has got to come up with something that the jury might buy. because there were two guns used, they explore that with the witness. the witness was honest and said, "listen, this could be a a possibility." but the evidence is not pointing towards that. >> ashley: you talked about the ballistic evidence at the beginning but what else has
1:37 am
stood out in the trial so far? >> i think the biggest thing that stood out to me the actual statements of the defendant, specifically when he said, i did him so bad as testified to the agent involved in the case. and as his own body cam. that is so. it will come down to whether the jury believes he was referring to his son, paul, when he said that. >> todd: timelines are key in cases like this. he is the prosecution doing a good job in your summation, jennifer showing alex's timeline really doesn't add up? >> yes. i think combined with not with a timeline they established, but also with alex's statements about the last time was when he was when he saw his wife and son at supper. all the details don't add up comments and sickly when you hear a story is causing trouble for the defense. >> ashley: do you believe any
1:38 am
of his story or do you think he is guilty of this? >> i don't believe his story. when you come on scene to horrific murder like this with your wife and your son almost unrecognizable and your statements are trying to point the finger in another direction regarding a boating accident, it just doesn't add up or make sense. and the fact that there were no tears, according to investigators. >> todd: and a parent has that going through their head. if that happened to our family, i mean, tears would be the least of our worries at that point. what does the defense need to do going forward and what does the prosecution need to do go to my going forward? speak with the prosecution needs to keep on this trajectory introducing the facts as they exist. the facts move towards the defendant. the defendant will try to muddy the waters whether a footprint
