directed to. despite the energy department findings, top national security advisor spokesman james feldman said there is no definitive answer on the origins of covid-19. >> there is a variety of hues in the intelligence community and reach conclusions on one side, but a number of them said, they just don't have enough information to be sure. if we can gain further insight or information, we will share it with congress we will share it with the american people. but right now, there is not a definitive answer for the intelligence committee on this question. speak with early stages of covid pandemic, they slammed tom cotton for the french lab leak theory including "the washington post," "new york times" and cnn. senator cotton tweeting yesterday, being proven right doesn't matter. what matters is holding the chinese communist party accountable so this doesn't happen again. fox news medical contributor dr. nicole saphier was also attacked for suggesting the lab

leak theory was legitimate. here is her response three years later, listen. >> most pandemics, most outbreaks happen from natural spill over and you find in the wild. but today they have not found a genetically similar virus to the one that causes covid-19 in the wild. where did it come from? you have to think outside of the box and that is what i was doing at the time. there were some rumors some of the scientist got sick and had to be hospitalized. that was the reason why i couldn't refute or reject what dr. fauci did appear and speak with the energy department was involved in the investigation because it was president biden who said he wants to use every available resource to determinee pandemic, ashley, todd. >> brooke singman, thank you. the u.s. needs to act, watch this. >> there are two problems of accountability here. one is accountability for china and the ccp, which tried to sweep this under the rug. this will not go lightly. the u.s. needs to lead the way

to a whole chain accountable, but we only have moral standing to hold china accountable. if we hold those accountable here at home, that purposely invaded the research to go back to the backboard and do it abroad anyway. that accountability starts at what we have the foundation to deliver accountability to the chinese party. it is a listen and free speech and open debate preventing us from getting answer sooner. if we don't learn from our mistakes, we will just keep repeating them. >> formalize director jonathan fahey and congressman jeff will join us to weigh in on this story. biden heads to virginia to talk about health care with east palestine noticeably missing from his agenda after the toxic training derailment. >> todd: concern lawmakers across the country are calling out the white house. alexandria hoff live from washington with more, alexandria. >> todd, ashley glenn youngkin

of virginia said now is the time for strong leadership and the more appropriate backdrop for the president to talk about community health is elsewhere. >> joe biden has been to ukraine and now coming to virginia. he has yet to go to ohio. he wants to talk about health care? why doesn't he go to a place where people have health concerns that are driving them to worry about not just the day-to-day impacts of this horrific train crash, but the long-term impacts with cancer threats et cetera. speed to the latest fox news poll shows 33% of registered vos approve of president biden's handling of the fiery february 3rd derailment. the impacts are still being felt among the hazardous chemicals released to carcinogens and known -- and "the new york post" since the toxic explosion, his voice sounded like he inhaled helium.

enter public service allegedly to take care of citizens like you? >> well, to be honest, i don't know what it's like to be the president of the united states. i'm sure he's a busy, busy guy as well as a busy president. but i would appreciate some more actions. >> todd: you are a much kinder man than i, josh. josh is one of your clients so we need to get that out of the way. when you hear it officials like the epa director, "water is fine, air is fine." >> todd, first off, i'm not sure if our discussions were other people at the time that after our interview, nearly five or six hours after, the white house made an announcement that fema was coming and cdc is coming. columbus did too. that calvary was coming finally and that is amazing.

my message, stop insulting east palestine that say the air and water are safe. it is not. people are still getting sick. people are still manifesting physical issues that result from potential toxic exposure. what east palestine needs to hear, director, that you are listening. they want to hear you say, "although these tests are saved, there has got to be something wrong with them because people are still getting sick." you need to find answers. they need to find -- they need to hear you say that you are finding the answers while they are getting sick. they need to track for future generations. do your job to protect the american people, not just put on a show, puff out your chest make norfolk southern pay. help people now! get them out of the zone of harm, thank you. >> todd: josh, your attorney just mentioned the physical

manifestation of what happened. and you are still feeling physical issues every time you go back there. i know you are living away from the area. when you go back what do you experience physically? >> you know what's been happening to me, the respiratory issues, the sore, irritated throat, headaches. you know, that is for a short time. >> todd: what i don't understand, grants, there is a disconnect. you have the epa director, michael saying the water is fine, it was fine norfolk southern will pay, but the people that we interview like josh and other people last week in the week before, they are not making up these symptoms just to be on tv at 4:00 in the morning. they are talking about the symptoms because that is what they are feeling. why is there such a disconnect there? >> you know, i just think it is

the lack of the ability to respond to an issue like this. maybe this was a situation not necessarily determined to be able to be worked on prior too. i mean, i think they are looking for, it could be the result of the fire itself, though byproducts of the fire which created poison to the environment. >> todd: it is shocking to me they could be in a cya in front of the world but yet, there is no shame, i guess is the word i'm going for. there is no sense of hey, maybe we should be a little more up front because, again, josh isn't having trouble breathing because it's a random monday but what happened there. about a month ago. that needs to be figured out soon, josh, grant, thank you so much. we will check back soon. ashley. >> ashley: thousands are pouring into el salvador's new

emergency and i've got law enforcement there working with the coast guard. we have the number of boats to go down dramatically. this cost a lot of money but biden is basically invited a lot of the problems that we see. >> ashley: palm beach county seeing two to three smuggling events per week. >> todd: the biden administration student loan forgiveness plan heading to the supreme court. justices argued debt forgiveness policy with six lawsuits since rolled out last august. the administration currently blocked from carrying out its promise of canceling $20,000 in student debt relief or tens of millions of americans. this relief plan could cost america an estimate of $400 billion in total. the supreme court expected to rule on the matter by late june. spacex with scratching dominic scrapping before liftoff. the space agency said issues

frankly don't support us in leadership roles. based on the polls, what is going on here? do that she have any chance of pulling office? >> i think what you have to look at is the last election site, she made a name daily. she was in a runoff with tony and obviously both women of race. i don't know that that matters. i think the issues you just talked about is what it will come down to. chicago has a rampant crime problem and not only is it in chicago but reached the other counties. that is problematic. crime, crime, crime will be the issue in this election. personally from what i am hearing from my constituents and from listeners, brendan johnson, paul vallas run big school districts in philadelphia, new orleans, chicago and brendan johnson has the backing up of

chicago teachers union in cook county commissioner. i think those are your two guys. there may be a surprise but i think the rhetoric what we talked about, what you just talked about is what will her lori lightfoot. crime, if she doesn't come across as somebody that cares about people, i'm sure she is a nice lady and she is a wonderful family in town but it doesn't resonate. you can't -- all you have to do is show a picture, shows statistics, showed chicago was a great american city. but it's in trouble right now. i think that is what gets her in the long run. >> todd: when in doubt, lightfoot plays the race card. she's done this before and she will do it again. she is doing it here. you heard maryann's peace. will that have any impact in a city where quite frankly her policies on crime specifically have hurt people of every single race? >> you know, todd, here is what

the national news kind of miss is about chicago. what we see is crime numbers. you can't discount that committed as there. you see the same visceral speech all the time over and over again. there are people in this town ready to be leaders. really, if you look down the line of these people running for mayor, there's been wilson, philanthropic man and a good man, african american. chicago is a latino and very diverse african american community. personally, i don't think it comes down to race. there were people in these communities that just want to be safe when they go outside. it will come down to safety and crime. it will come down to texas or maybe it comes down to schools and then taxes. our taxes are too much money. that's what it comes down to. you can play race and everything. chicago is a very diverse town. there are leaders, most of the leadership positions as far as

aldermen are concern and county commissioners, mostly everybody is of color. so i don't know why we always have to play the race card. it is a great city. you know, it just needs help. and i think lori lightfoot's time is up here and speak to you i have to squishy stomach squeeze one more thing, talking about desantis in town, hey, coo florida. with him saying that and kind of attacking desantis, do you think he has the best chance to cleaning up the crime in chicago? >> i think so. again, 2016 i don't know why we do polls anymore. but he's leading in the polls. he has also had from a side b9 thing and i don't know why, you know this doesn't matter, but governor pritzker taking it to ron desantis.

he does everything right. but that's another story. i think there was a misstep there with another controversy as someone in his twitter camp, someone liking tweets out there that let's say a little aboveboard. he doesn't know where that's coming from. it looks like a little chicago problem. they want to mucky the waters with a guy like ron desantis and this late in the game, it's not going to work. the biggest issue we have to worry about for chicago is is it going to snow? is it going to rain? then when all said and done, they are talking about election results. we have already been conditioned to say, wait a second, the election results will take days and days and days here and so standby for this. but i bet we talk next week and the three of us will talk about randy johnson. >> ashley: if that's what you say, we are reporting on it. it will be interesting to see in chicago. thank you for your take on this this morning. >> thanks, guys.

>> ashley: senator, you talk about the quality of life. what is happening to the people of south carolina? >> well, roads, bridges, or schools, we live in paradise but honestly, they have those pieces of critical infrastructure for us completely inundated by the newcomers. if you can't move from point a to point b, then it becomes difficult to do the average everyday things that you need to do. honestly without that group of people coming, we would be in a different place right now. i'm not trying to build a wall, it said that multiple times. i don't think we want to stop growth, but at the same time i think growth should pay for growth. this is an impact fee. we've had impact fees in south carolina for a long time. that is not a new thing. most of the time if i said i

productive and not healthy for a democratic society where you can't ask questions. certain things are clearly out of balance. we look back over the past couple of years on the covid policies, and so many of the establishment was wrong on. it is okay to be wrong, but it does not okay to prevent questioning. men don't like major media outlets calling the lab theory a debunk theory and basically mocking those and suggesting it could come from a lab. you wonder how many other things are being censored that we don't even know about that might be able to solve these problems. maybe next time we faced covid we can actually be more effective and have free and fair debate on the issue and shutting down one side or multiple sides in favor of one narrative. and that is really remarkable and it seems like criticizing china or the chinese government seems to be out of balance. why can't we criticize them and ask questions? millions of people die around

the world. everyone else has suffered to some degree. particularly in this country because of the virus and this idea we can't look for answers as to who is accountable if anyone and how to hold them accountable for it to prevent it from happening again. >> todd: this was an attack on truth and what constitutes truth. what will be truth going forward. quite frankly, the mainstream media and the government muddies the waters when it came to that because it did not allow to ask questions to arrive to the truth. what if they said was the fact was truth. any questioning of it hurt going forward. it has the media and government learn its lesson, or have they just developed a road map to do this again in the future? >> no, i don't think they've learned their lesson. it is not like this is limited to covid. this is many spheres that the government, the mainstream media, social media pushes a narrative. you may think that contradicts

that narrative, they fight against, demonized, platform and criticize people. so really if you look, it is the hallmark of the establishment and a hallmark the democratic partnership is starting back with political correctness and grown and grown and grown. and if you run with a narrative and you don't buy into the premise, you can either discuss an issue and at the very least you have to agree to what the premises and they set the parameters which is not good for a healthy society to discuss any issues and for people to feel legitimacy and what the decisions ultimately are. >> ashley: people are afraid to say anything, no matter what the repercussions may be or might not be because they know what people say about it. the national border patrol unit calling out the white house for not telling the full story on the border crisis. i have to read this. the union tweeting, "arrests are up over last year but some open border crowd would have you believe they are down 90%.
