pages and notes, this is one of the best books i've read, congratulations. >> bill: welcome home. >> dana: will you be back to see us? >> benjamin: any day. >> dana: thanks for all you have done. faulkner focus is up next, harris will take it away, here she is. >> historic moment of quick sand, stuck and sinking, big inflation news kind of a bust today, it barely moved at all with all the biden administration policy tweaks and big promises and banking failures of silicon valley, and now signature in new york city, well, it is a growing problem today. the president is insisting americans won't have to bail out the banks again, he better be right about that. i'm harris faulkner, you are in

the faulkner focus. all the white house talk, the prices for food, energy, getting a haircut, everything going up still consumer price index for february up 6% from last year, coming off that high of 9.1% last june. so this is really slow with housing prices sky high, the fed threatening to ep coo raising interest rates to cool down inflation. new word the fed is using today, "maybe" they'll do that. who is to blame for america's second largest bank collapse in history and the deep economic mess we're in right now? the old go-to, our democratic president is pointing a finger at former president trump. >> president biden: thanks to quick action of my administration, americans can confidence the banking system is

safe. during the biden administration we put in place tough requirements on banks to make sure the crisis of 2008 would not happen again. the last administration rolled back some of the requirements. >> harris: republicans demanding accountability and raising concerns that rescue of silicon valley bank could set a dangerous precedent. >> what may have been malpractice on their part, i hope regulators will investigate and decide exactly what happened and explain to us. >> i think it will turn out to be something at the end, customers have to bear the brunt of this. >> community banks are bailing out depositors in silicon valley, new york and maybe perhaps from china. this is a bailout. >> harris: charles payne is here. we will begin with grady

trimble. grady. >> americans are getting hit hard in certain areas every time they go to the grocery store, every time they go out to eat or write the rent check at the beginning of the month. category by category, starting with transportation services, car rental, repair, auto insurance, up 14.6 from a year ago. new cars cost more compared to last year, some areas where prices have come down a bit are gas prices at the pump. last summer they started climbing. used cars are down. gas utility, electricity, food at home and food away from home and shelter are up from a year ago. inflation is easing. today's cpi report is lowest since september of 2021, the president points out in his statement. it is still well above when

president biden took office. he is using today's report as opportunity to go on the attack saying i'll do everything in my power to prevent us from going backward on progress we've made including standing up to congressional republicans who threaten economic catest officeree over the debt limit for large corporations and reckless cuts to critical programs american seniors and families count on. that's the president's response. we'll wait a week to see what the fed response to this inflation report will be. will it keep raising rates to tackle inflation or will bank failure cause it to hit pause for now? harris? >> harris: that's a lot, i know the public's response. the guy in new york, the rent is too blank high, that is how we feel about food prices. charles payne, we would like our

money and like to keep it, like our doctors in 2008. will biden bail out the banks? >> what we saw this weekend was bailout of silicon valley, richest zip code in america. bailout of the place the democratic party gets bulk of donor money and bailout of people that didn't need a bailout. it is critically important people understand. the way president biden is intimating, small depositors were at risk. anyone with less than $250,000 in the bank, you are 100% recovered. they were trying to stock a run on the bank to justify bailing out the wealthiest people. how is this a bailout for the wealthiest people? silicon valley bank didn't want your money. if you walked in with 10 grand, security would have you can waed you out, 93% of deposits had

more than quarter million dollars. they are connected to venture capitalists. he didn't save the banks. when he gave that -- when he spoke yesterday, he talked -- >> harris: you didn't want to call it a speech. >> he talked about more regulation. here is the problem, silicon valley bank had a lot of money in u.s. treasury bonds, if you want to call that reckless investment, most people call risk free, they were a greedy bank. they made hardly no loans and kept money invested. >> harris: talk about inflation, the bigger engine of all of this. that alone signature here in new york and silicon valley bank in california. those two failures alone are worth our time and energy and breaking it down the way you did so eloquently, thank you.

there is bigger picture, they are part of it, too, we're all feeling it. that is inflation, why isn't it doing what biden said and precipitously coming down with the banks and everything else. >> harris, you cannot suck two billion out of the economy that easily, trickle down economy never existed, our economy is based onic trel up. an amazing paper out of stanford shows how the money president biden printed, over next five years will trickle up to the top 1%. between now and then we will have inflationary pressure. you add another program here, the inflation reduction act, yeah, wink, wink. >> harris: climate change package. >> you can't put out a fire while you throw extra kerosene on it, it never happens. >> harris: points of price

changes, transportation 14.46%, food away from home, when you go out, you get curbside, 8.4%, food at home, 10.2%. electricity 12.9%. energy. food at home disturbs me. it is actually cheaper to go have somebody else make it and pay the tip than to eat in your kitchen. >> right, last retail sales report we got, bulk of that, restaurants, the bulk was restaurants. to your point, it is cheaper to go to a restaurant to mcdonald's or denny's -- >> harris: all of the above for me. >> that is scary stuff, for a lot of people, both are too expensive, both are not answers. again -- >> harris: i don't know why it

is taking so long other than the fact sometimes when you get stuck in the mud, longer you are stuck, it takes more people to pull you out. i want to get to this, i don't know if president biden saw this coming. this is a bite on the arm he couldn't run from if he tried, far left is showing stink eye to the president of the united states. biden approved willow oil drilling project in alaska and the green activists are angry, 171 million on social media, hash tag trending stop willow, they couldn't stop biden on capitol hill bipartisan supporters of willow project say it will create thousands of jobs and produce 180,000 barrels per day. one liberal squad member is predicting political fallout from all of this. >> mr. president, it was young people that organized across this country to help you get

into office. their number one issue is climate change. it is going to be young people who organize to help us win back the house in 2024 and help america to reach its ideals. >> harris: fury from the green activists even though the administration scaled back willow project from five drilling sites to three. to their point, it is still a broken promise. >> would there be any place for fossil fuel including coal and fracking in biden administration? >> president biden: no, we will work it out, i guarantee you we will end fossil fuel, no more subsidy or drilling on federal land or offshore, no ability for oil industry to continue to drill, period, ends cht >> harris: that part he tells people, vote for me, watch me, far left is watching him do

what? >> remember, at the state of the union, he admitted he needed fossil fuel for another decade, which we will need it longer than that. e an ideologue is practical. >> harris: they like student bail outs. >> how they get there is fossil fuel. i can't move out, gasoline is too high. >> harris: put the map back up and i'll be quick. the president tried to flex to the far left by saying you can't touch those in the red box, 13 million acres and flesh to far left, of the five areas we could produce oil in, we will only do three, they are still squawking. >> you should have done all five, they are still squawking, we still need oil, cheap oil

that moves our economy, only way to get prosperity if the economy is moving. >> harris: you said blaming president trump for where we are now is bogus. >> it is embarrassing. >> harris: thank you, pressure on for new york city mayor eric adams, new report shows police are ditching the force in staggering numbers and this. >> this chaos will not end until we have the proper law enforcement policies, this administration took away everything and implemented something unorderly and that is the problem today. >> harris: just days evera the dangerous scene near el paso, house democrats say no, they are taking a pass on another field hearing on biden's border crisis. they don't want to see it, they don't want to go see it. chris oliveras, lieutenant john

>> harris: house democrats say they will boycott yet another field hearing at the border tomorrow. just days after a thousand people tried to crush our sovereignty at the border in el paso. >> harris: when you want to stand in line so people can legally process you, this is how you do it, right? no. blaming the biden administration for chaos and for handling of

the border for his presidency so far. >> it is clearly intentional, this level of incompetence is something you can't explain away. you can't ignore it, joe biden can't ignore it. >> like a firefighterun aring from a fire, joe biden ought to be impeached for this. >> this administration has not dealt with illegal border crossings, it will not end until we have policies and programs in place. this administration took away everything. >> harris: bill melugin is live in mission, texas. every since yesterday, you reported by the hour, i wondered what role the cartel got out that the americans will let you in, where was it all over social media? >> harris, good morning, migrants tell us the catalyst

was a facebook post pushing a false rumor they would be let in. alert your viewers, you never know who is sneaking through. texas dps announcing brush team arrested a man wanted for murder with interpol warning out on him. it was in kinney county. this is out of honduras, they will extradite him back to honduras. harris, take a look at this video, showing huge rush of migrants, pushing past mexican security in juarez and running on to the bridge. they are excited and sound jubilents, they believed they would be allowed to enter into el paso. take a look at this post migrants showed us.

they said this started everything, it is in spanish, claim that said they pass through the bridge two days prior and cbp told them they will let all migrants into the united states if they show up at the bridge on sunday with a child or extreme asylum case. the post says, do not miss this opportunity and start traveling to the border right now, that is what one migrant tells us shoe did, take a listen. >> we came to see if it was true, but it was a lie. they shot teargas at us and didn't wear we had children. we have been here two months, waiting here and we're desperate. >> harris, there are allegations it was the drug cartel with tony gonzales telling fox news, they were told and i'm trying to figure out by who, all

indications point it was cartel feeding this information to migrants saying that yesterday was day of the migrants and they were going to be allowed into the united states via the port of entry. harris, the cartels push false things on social media. they want agents to be pulled away from elsewhere, the bridge got shut down, cbp called in response teams, american military called in, is there confirmation it was the cartel behind the post? we don't know, the migrants are upset by the false rumor. >> harris: we say we have cyber war fare capability, yee need to be using it, we are at war with the cartel, mexico doesn't want to fight them, obrador made it clear, i don't know if it is complicity or what, but they are

not interested in us helping them. it is us against cartels and we have to get start seeing the messaging, we can do this, we're the best in the world. bill melugin, thank you. lieutenant chris oliveraz and john anthison, great to see you both, it's been a few months. we were together right before the new fiscal year. john, i want to see how your men and women are doing, the struggle has been mighty with border patrol. >> same as it has been for a while, now we are able to put a few more agents into the field and we are starting to see how much was getting away on a daily basis. a lot of groups are not expecting agents to be there. when agents encounter them, we see more agents getting assaulted. it is a whole different issue to

get back to normal. >> harris: more agents getting assaulted, are you saying people are coming across armed? are cartels part of that? they are in cammo at night, lieutenant oliverez and i saw that at night. >> they have been walking for days and there is an agent trying to stop them, they are going to fight back if they have a chance of getting away. >> harris: lieutenant, your team and i flew and we were on the ground and saw so much, when you see this exclusive video from fox news of the bridge in el paso, what goes through your mind of what we need to do that we are not doing right now? >> i want to acknowledge dedicated work from state troopers, especially catching the -- from honduras.

if it wasn't for governor abbott taking proactive approach and having state resources at the border, this individual would have gotten away, with the 1.2 million gotaways, it is not known how many are murderers, criminals or terrorists. that is failed border policy, we are seeing this mad surge of people crossing the board and waiting in mexico. with this cb-1 app, it has not worked at all, there are reports the app is not working and cartel are spreading messages to get people to come across and distract law enforcement. they are tied up with processing and they want to expose vulnerable gaps to bring across criminals, fugitives or drugs, whatever the case may be.

>> harris: hard to believe the app, the same one the president said use the app? >> right, the cbp one. >> harris: it is not working? >> i'll let jon explain more, at the state level, this app is not working. some have been able to get by, this app is not working to what they expected. >> harris: get to this, cousin of two sisters who went missing two weeks ago reportedly now there are fears that time is not in their favor. however, mexico president insists this country is safer than life is for us in the united states. let's watch. >> mexico is safer than the united states, there is no issue traveling safely through mexico, that is something the u.s. citizens also know, like our fellow mexicans that live in the u.s. >> harris: jon, you are on the border everyday, is mexico safer

know that the united states? >> he's not being a serious person, that is ridiculous. you don't have people, they are not worried they will get stopped at cartel checkpoint and executed, he is not being serious. >> harris: quickly lieutenant, fentanyl is something you are studying in texas, seeing more now. what is being done to combat that? >> well, the governor has launched many initiatives trying to implement stiffer penalties for those producing fentanyl, especially in texas. our troopers dismantled a fentanyl lab in houston, texas several weeks ago, actual u.s. citizens in the country producing fentanyl and making counterfeit pills, having them shipped from china to them. it goes back to the cartels, who are behind the mass production of fentanyl and also tens of thousands of americans dying

because of fentanyl poisoning. it is important the federal government takes a federal approach and designate cartel as terrorist organizations. i think there needs to be accountable to hold them accountable and provide closure to those who lost loved ones due to fentanyl poisoning. momentum moving forward, designate cartels terrorist organizations. >> harris: u.s. citizens helping movement of fentanyl and if texas can do designation for the cartels being dangerous terrorists basically, every state can and that can make things i would imagine more difficult to move around. it is such an honor to have you both in focus today, hope to see you at the border very soon. god bless you and thank you for all you do to ep coo us safe, both of you. president biden taking aim at

ron desantis over his legislation to protect children. the president floated a federal law to push back on those efforts in florida and house republicans, well, they're not stopping. >> this is an investigation of joe biden. we're investigating the biden family and again, after this new batch of information, it expands. there are more family members involved than just the president's son. >> harris: bank record, art sale records, they want it all and you heard who they think it will lean back to. ben dominesh in focus, there he is. ♪ if you're the spouse of a military veteran, i want you to know something. your spouse has earned the right to apply for a va home loan.

>> harris: house oversight committee issued subpoena to bank of america for 14 years of records connected with hunter biden sketchy business dealings, oversight chairman james comer warning of potential concerns earlier today. >> the question is what were the bidens doing to receive the massive amounts of money from china? we have the first wire and we traced it from china to the biden family members and have many more, what they said in the media, this was for business. we can't identify any business, we don't know what the business is, my theory it is influence pedalling, if so, it is wrong. >> harris: democrat jamie raskin complaining about the move of the subpoena saying, i fear this wildly overbroad subpoena suggests that your interest in this investigation is not in pursuing defined facts, but political opposition research. house oversight committee wants to see on their list the

treasury department suspicious activity report on biden family transactions, sales record for hunter biden's art, ben dominesh fox news contributor, great to see you today. how do you sit in the white house and not answer questions about sketchy business dealings with your family members and china? >> ben: i think the biden family has gotten away with this for such a long time, they feel like they can get away with it again and i think they are wrong. it is ludicrous to listen to someone like jamie raskin say this is too broad of a net when obviously they want to look under every different rock and pebble to find something to pin on donald trump during his tenure during the white house and stretching back decades earlier in terms of his financial activity.

we have a very clear perspective from james comer and other republicans on this committee who want to have a good perspective on what was being sold. essentially was hunter biden engaged in a type of influence pedalling racket that would compromise his father potentially, other members of his family in pursuit of foreign dollars coming from america's adversaries. it is absolutely legitimate question or thing to ask for and i think when it comes to comer's staff and others on the committee, they will pour over what they get in terms of response from bank of america and find out more about the degree to which the biden family has potentially been compromised by their relationships with a lot of untorrid foreign partners overseas. >> harris: you raise that question about whether or not our president is in a position of harm's way to capitulate to anybody that you might have made a business dealing with as a

family member of his, ie, china or ukraine, anyone. president biden taking shot at florida governor ron desantis over several bills dealing with transgender youth, banning sex change treatment for minors. governor desantis calling it effort to protect young children from life-changing procedures, president biden with this harsh take. >> president biden: transgender kids is a harder thing. what is going on in florida is as my mother would say, close to sinful. it is not like a kid wakes up and says, you know, i decided i want to become a man or woman. it is cruel. the way we do it, we make sure we pass legislation like we passed on same-sex marriage. >> harris: is the president there to your knowledge in your opinion justifying doing life altering things to children,

minors? >> ben: he is not just doing that, he's saying it in the context of invoking his religious faith as being some kind of gift that allows him to determine moral questions of our time in ways that i think are totally at odds with what the vast majority of americans and inner pas believe until 30 seconds ago about what was appropriate. there is a lot of science we're just beginning to learn about in terms of ramification for this type of treatment for young kids. there is a lot atific are and stake, potentially making life-altering decisions that could prevent these children from growing up and having families of their own, deeply important and to suggest it is evil to push back and say look, we need to have these types of decisions made with adults in the room as opposed to counting

on kids to determine what their future is going to look like. i think you can raise issues with the approach governor desantis used and i think it is deeply irresponsible and really awful to see this type of regime forced on america's kids by people who have a political agenda they believe is more important than lives of the children in question. that is a huge problem, it needs to be addressed, whether doing so politically or culturally could be debated. you can pass judgment on what they have done in florida, is absolutely absurd. >> harris: what you said is true, to let the children decide, what if they change their mind when they get older and you have no recourse to help them change it back, it is heartbreaking, the unknown. ben, a pleasure to have you on focus, thank you. well, there is a big old eye

roll going on among critics, former white house press secretary jen psaki applauding president biden for get this, starting his workday not before 9 a.m. because he's a night owl, who believes it? the nypd is losing officers left and right, and sideways any which way theyef loo, never mind the department lowered standards, that has been reported. some critics say the entire force needs to be rebuilt. >> a lot of people don't respect them and i think police officers and firemen have to be respected and cherished a lot, without them, i don't know where the city would be. lomita feed is 101 years old this year and counting. i'm bill lockwood, current caretaker and owner. when covid hit, we had some challenges like a lot of businesses did. i heard about the payroll tax refund,

>> harris: fox weather alert, a massive winter storm hitting the northeast, power outages and flight delays across the region and parts of massachusetts, you see on the right side of the screen, snow is beginning to pile up. fox weather correspondent robert ray is live in chatham, massachusetts. windy day, what are people expecting? >> good morning, the wind kicking up in earnest in chatham

on the elbow of massachusetts. you see, look at the bay and the water moving in, that is the concern as this nor'easter keeps churning we will see water come in and may see coastal flooding and could see 60 mile per hour wind gusts here. let's take a look at snow video from the interior harris, in massachusetts and new york. one to two feet of snow is falling and it is really a tale of two stories on this nontraditional nor'easter we have going here, especially on the cape. we're not seeing that snow, we're seeing heavy rain and wind and i have to say, what is interesting about the system right now, the fact we, where i'm situated in chatham, we are closest as far as mileage and proximity to the center or eye of the storm, 100 or so miles

out there, as we wipe the lens and the water continues to come in here. we have ebbs and flows of wind that dies down and no rain like the eye of a hurricane. when you are in it, there is a lull. this moves up to the north and to the east or west into new england and comes back down. whipping winds all afternoon, more snow on the interior, light snow tonight, potential for power outages and coastal flooding on the cape. it is nasty. what happened to spring? >> harris: the groundhog told us it is winter. everybody tells us that because it is winter. pressure growing for new york city mayor eric adams, a former police officer himself, to take action now. new numbers are showing officers are leaving the police force at a record pace.

the "new york post" editorial board with this headline, mayor adams must get his nypd in order as cop resignations soar. numbers are up 117% from 2001, that trend projected to continue. here is the mayor this week. >> we have a law enforcement crisis in this city, country, it is serious. what we failed out, we were not going out and recruiting at capacity we should have. large number of people want to be police officers and we have retirement and nypd is the finest police department on the globe. >> harris: well, all this as violent crime is soaring, up double digits in the past two years with 47% surge in overall crime. former texas congresswoman mayra

flores and richard fowler. are there notes from what happened in chicago, to mayor lightfoot he ought to be taking? >> absolutely, what did they think was going to happen when you are defunding the police? they have been pushing this agenda for a long time. they have put police officer's lives at risk and police officers are exhausted and they don't deserve the treatment they have been getting that the democratic party has been pushing. what did they think was going to happen. same thing with border patrol in south texas, they are being disrespected. for what? for the law that you put in place, what did they think was going to happen.

we need to bring respect back to law enforcement. >> harris: richard, what is your take on where we are and you are hear being from the former congresswoman about what we need to do next, do you agree? >> thank you for having me. if somebody else, maybe the arguments are true, we are talking about the mayor of new york, who has taken on a lot of criticism because he isn't someone who wants to defund the police, he's put money into policing and recruited more policing and somebody who said he wants the nypd to be trained and mandatory overtime to ensure more cops are on the beat, he is doing the opposite of defund the police. crime is still high in new york city, we have seen a decrease in crime. the larger problem, harris, what we should be talking about, what this "new york post" editorial is saying, if we're going to rebuild the police, what are

jobs police are doing they shouldn't be doing? >> harris: all right. >> should police respond to drug overdoses? >> probably not. >> harris: if there are cops not rolling with narcan, a lot of people will die. we don't want to take too much off their plate as long as the border remains open. mayra, robert has a good point, some i think thises have been done, defund movement had taken hold even before mayor eric adams got in, he didn't turn it around right away. he spent months telling people we had perception of crime as people were getting shoved down stairways and stabbed on platforms of the subway, he thought we were all imagining that. >> exactly, he started panicking and now he's turning things around, which is great. it will take a long time to be able to recover after so many

years of pushing this agenda of defunding the police and disrespecting law enforcement. it will take a while and he can't do this alone, he needs the democratic party to support him in this, he is all alone, he needs help of members of congress, as well. the members of congress in new york talking about supporting law enforcement and treating them with respect. he is all alone in this. >> harris: you are right, soft on crime da we have here, bragg is very silent during this period and mayor adams will need help. pause so we can get to this, former press secretary applauding president biden for getting up early, isn't that part of the gig? >> president biden does nothing at 9:00 a.m., he is a night owl, the fact he is doing this at 9
