8:00 am
she has had it. she can't do it no more. she gets too depressed. she has been screamed and yelled at and cusseded at. it is not right. the city, three years, four months and they haven't done nothing to help us at least. >> john: we hope you can keep the business alive. thank you for joining us. >> thank you, guys. >> dana: thank you for being with us. john, amazing story. appreciate it. we'll see you tomorrow. harris faulkner is up next. here she is. >> harris: it is time and we may be closer than ever to publicly finding out what actually started the coronavirus pandemic that killed more than a million americans. president biden approved a measure directing the feds to declassify relevant intelligence reports how covid started. the problem is when will we see them? apparently they're dragging their feet on this.
8:01 am
i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus." house and senate lawmakers passed the covid-19 origin act of 2023 earlier this month. the white house says it will declassify as much as possible but with this caveat about national security concerns when it comes to how the virus started, the administration officials are going to be a slow roll on this one. they already dismissed the laboratory leak theory for years. and then, of course, had to walk that back. two federal agencies now support it. and that would include the f.b.i. peter doocy and john kirby had this exchange. >> does the white house hope that the lab leak theory is not true? >> we don't have a hope one way or the other, peter. what we want is the ground truth. wherever the science takes you and the facts take you.
8:02 am
>> the bill president biden signed yesterday. except info that would harm national security. is there a bigger national security threat than something that killed 1 million people? >> the president has to balance transparency with national security, peter. of course he does. >> where is it? >> let me finish my answer. >> harris: republican senator rand paul with doubts that americans will ever get the entire truth. >> we had a unanimous vote in the senate and house and then president biden begrudgingly signed it and said yeah, i'll give you the information as long as i determine that it's not going to hurt our national security, which is concerning that he is already putting a caveat on how much he will give us. >> harris: josh hawley of missouri who sponsored the bill tweeted this. there is no national security exception in the bill. so just get on with it.
8:03 am
senior national correspondent rich edson from the white house now. >> u.s. intelligence agencies are still trying to figure this out. some are split whether it started from a lab in china or it began in nature. republicans in the house and senate are also investigating this and focusing on the wuhan institute of virology. >> they've been looking at lots of different animals all over the region and yet to see it show up in nature. this looks like this came out of a lab. there is lots of information from that. so allow that information just to be able to come out and allow the american people to see it. >> this week president biden signed the bipartisan bill that directs the federal government to release as much information as possible about the start of the pandemic. the president says his administration will do so while protecting against disclosing information that would harm national security. republicans say the white house might be hiding behind national security concerns to keep covid
8:04 am
information from the public. administration denies that. >> one should not read into that statement that he is laying a foundation here to be overly secretive. he believes strongly we have to find the roots and origins of covid to prevent a future pandemic. through his actions judge him on what he has done through his actions. >> major part of their investigation republicans are focusing on the hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal grants that went to the wuhan institute of virology saying the government may have been funding research there that made viruses more dangerous to humans to study the effect, the gain-of-function research. republicans maintained the federal government hasn't been forthcoming with the data as they continue to dig on capitol hill. >> harris: the president is going to of to address national security concerns with regard to this if he will release any of it. i wonder if he will. thank you. dr. fauci as he has done for
8:05 am
years now, has been shown laughing off laboratory leak questions in this latest pbs documentary which aired last night. >> it was not only sars covid two it would be molecularly ii imbri imbrim -- you have a chevrolet and motorcycle and saying i want to make the chevrolet into the motorcycle. you won't make it into a motorcycle. >> harris: how much does this guy love the camera? look, a pillow with his face. the former white house covid doctor had a camera shadow him for nearly two years, what an ego and got a look into dr. fauci's $2 million d.c. home packed with memorabilia featuring himself. it includes self-portraits,
8:06 am
cushions with his face on them. jason chaffetz. fo fo fo former utah congressman. most of his mind focused on dr. fauci. >> that's very true, harris. two lines of thought. this bill that passed out of congress was unanimous in the house and senate. as senator hawley pointed out, there is no national security exception. members of congress has security clearances and no reason why the white house can't produce these documents. you need to follow the money because the question about the money and the funding, which has manifest itself in testimony from dr. fauci, that's one line that needs to be pursued. the second is the intelligence services. some of this comes through literally the intelligence services. the department of energy, health and human services. those documents are already in place. there is no reason, harris,
8:07 am
having done this, having been the chairman of the oversight committee, there is 0 reason why any part of the administration, now that the president signed this bill, should not completely totally 100% provide those documents in short order. in a week to the united states congress. there is nothing that prohibits that at this point. >> harris: jason, the new documentary. we showed bits and pieces yesterday and we'll continue to. at one point i caught this this morning. at one point it shows dr. fauci very emotional on the day of president biden's inauguration. watch. >> today is a combination of so many different things. it's kind of a diffusion of an incredible amount of pent-up tension and holding back of despair. the stress of the fact that you are responsible for something
8:08 am
that's killing a lot of people, 400,000 individual people, people seeing their loved ones dying without even being able to be near them. >> harris: what do you make of it? >> dr. fauci has his narcissistic tendency to want to be all things. during the pandemic he wrote a book, he appeared on the cover of "vanity fair," he didn't say no to pretty much any media request. he has a camera following him for two years. in my mind he personifys the idea you need term limits on bureaucrats. he shouldn't have been in that lead position for decades. shame on joe biden and kamala harris. they could have gotten rid of dr. fauci, put in somebody we trust and they could build up the confidence in the centers
8:09 am
for disease control. but in this documentary put together by pbs. i applaud them for putting it out there. at one point dr. fauci says the problem that people aren't taking the vaccines is because they're republicans and we need to break them. that was his stated goal. we need to break republicans. that's all you need to know about dr. fauci, purely political. >> harris: we showed video yesterday where he knocked on the wrong door and there was a man, african-american man who explained it to him and we knew there were pockets of the african-american community, we don't know how they voted but we knew there were blacks who refused to get the vaccine. some of them because then candidate kamala harris said if trump got the vaccine made, she wouldn't take it. i don't know if that ever will get touched. maybe that's the sequel in the documentary. the grand jury in the trump hush money investigation meets again
8:10 am
today. law enforcement is saying an indictment could come this afternoon. if we see an indictment, liberal district attorney alvin bragg will then have to decide whether to charge the former president. bragg is facing some fresh criticism day-by-day. >> it is a political persecution. it is not a prosecution. it is targeting donald trump because alvin bragg is a left wing democrat who hates donald trump. >> trump is the name. put somebody else's name what would you do. ? >> it's political. >> harris: a new op-ed argues alvin bragg doesn't care about criminal justice he just wants to be a hero. phil holloway with this take on the "focus" yesterday. >> i share the frustration of congress because what they are trying to get at is how this local prosecutor is wielding the
8:11 am
awesome power of his office. if the public at large does not have confidence, harris, that our prosecutors are doing their job wisely and responsibly, it could jeopardize all sorts of criminal cases, not just this case but legitimate criminal cases. >> harris: jason yesterday i made the point the indictment may not even happen. alvin bragg is so exposed and the crime is so bad in the city he is grasping at straws just to say himself politically. >> he is letting some very dangerous people off. he is reducing their sentences and all the things that are going on in new york city and he wants to manufacture this thing against donald trump? are you kidding me? there is no -- he said from day one his goal was to get donald trump. he had the end in mind and then he would find some data out there. he didn't follow the facts and come to this conclusion. he is an absolute political
8:12 am
joke. he was funded by george soros and the poor city. there are so many other things to do in the city. fundamentally wrong to charge trump in this case. >> harris: i was reading from the great state of west virginia a democrat joe manchin senator said democrats need to be very careful with how they move forward now against trump. alvin bragg, former d.a.cy vans and the justice department passed on trump on this. now he brings it back. despite many claims to the contrary democrats aren't letting up when it comes to their push to defund the police. how is that going? to play politically on the streets where we say raging crime. plus more polls show dismal ratings for the president as a possible 2024 re-election announcement is looming. >> they will say we have another option here, right?
8:13 am
we have maybe a younger candidate, a candidate with a little more energy and drive with what we want to see. we'll go with option b, thank you for your service and push biden aside politely. >> harris: voters want someone else. the president with some big teases about a re-election bid dangling it out there. power panel next. veteran homeowners. one of the most powerful ways to fight inflation is to pay off your high-rate debt to lower your monthly payments. at newday we make it easy. our newday 100 loan lets you combine your first mortgage, your second mortgage, your high-rate credit cards, personal loans and car loans into one, low monthly payment. so you can save hundreds every month. and at newday, there's not one dollar upfront to apply. give us a call. the long-lasting scent of gain flings made it smell like dave was in his happy place... ...the massage chair at the mall.

>> harris: progressive house democrats keeping up their push to defund the police. corey bush and summer lee plan to talk about police reform with associate attorney general gupta, the third highest ranking official at the d.o.j. and has argued that, quote, structural
8:19 am
racism is a feature of every american institution including police departments. she says the feds should become more involved in local policing. most democrats try to run like the wind from the political suicide of defund these days. now the president has been pushing this narrative. >> president biden: congressional republicans should pass my budget instead of calling for cuts in these services or defunding the police or abolishing the f.b.i. as we hear from our maga republican friends. maga republicans are calling for defunding the police departments and f.b.i. they are calling for defunding. they are defunding. defunding the f.b.i. >> harris: power panel today. lee zeldin and patel.
8:20 am
can you bend the truth like that and make it sound like democrats didn't defund in some of the cities that have the worst crime right now? >> the president has made the largest-ever investment in law enforcement on record with the american rescue plan. 27% of police departments were going to make the cuts. >> harris: can i stoop you there with all due request. please answer my question. now he is saying republicans all along were the people who did this. republicans were not in charge in new orleans. look at cantrell begging for money, flipping the bird at people upset because there is not enough police protection in her city around mardi gras. >> not a single republican voted for it at the beginning of the presidency. on top of that supporting the police, that means supporting bans on high capacity magazines. it also means supporting bans on
8:21 am
armor piercing bullets. >> harris: wiping away some of the negative rhetoric all over the country? >> what some of these folks are saying about investing in mental health, investing in the opioid crisis and humane solutions to that are all things that are part and parcel of the public safety debate. >> harris: you could close the border to catch up on the fentanyl thing. >> the defund the police movement in 2020 was one that had multiple planks. people were talking about defunding the police, abolishing, dismantling. some of the rhetoric used. as far as policy goes, they were talking about a 911 call comes in from somebody who is experiencing domestic violence. the position is instead of sending law enforcement to respond we should be sending a mental health expert. you can be on either side of this debate and have a debate over it. the defund the police movement was one that came with multiple
8:22 am
planks. it was branded and packaged. there were protests, signs, this is what they were calling for. when you talk about individual items of a budget, if let's say you are against $1 for something that you are taking away from law enforcement but you are in favor of a billion dollars more for law enforcement, there are people at the politics, the rhetoric will say you are for defunding the police. you wanted to take $1 from here and add a billion there are >> harris: some democrat leadership in cities is still there. lori lightfoot is shrinking into the night and they will have a runoff to see if they can pick somebody more moderate and get crime under control. what guys are talking about was the bill. and the president trying to spin it now. but you can't say republicans all along were trying to defund the police for the very thing that lee just said. there might be one line in a bill right now in 2023.
8:23 am
this pot has been cooking for a long time and it will burn you what's in that pot. president biden teasing a re-election bid and the award ceremony yesterday. >> president biden: one of the thirst and only novelists to win a pulitzer prize for back-to-back works. how in the hell did you do that? pretty good, man. i'm kind of looking for back-to-back myself. [laughter] [cheers and applause] >> harris: more and more reports say democratic party leaders are worried. they cite his age, campaign stamina and poor polling. a new survey shows majority of voters disapprove of president biden's job. even more telling a whopping 72% believe our nation is headed in the wrong direction right now. that's a stiff headwind. when he said back-to-back win he had a big grin on your face.
8:24 am
>> i do. the man has delivered. he has passed the most bipartisan accomplishments this century from the infrastructure bill and chips act combating china. of course he should run. very accomplished. we saw the poll number in the mid-terms. >> harris: did you with a straight face say combating china? we're over a barrel so far that we can't get the chinese military to return our calls as they are prepared now to talk peace at the same time and then also put weapons on the ground for russia to use against ukraine. that party that president xi just had with the would be war criminal they are looking into who can't leave his countries because of the charges against him. we weren't invited to that party? >> we don't want to be with the party. we're fighting >> harris: you want us to have a seat at the table where two world powers keep us out, lee? >> i think that one of the most
8:25 am
telling polls is when you peel back the onion a little bit more on the democratic party and do a survey where you give democratic party primary voters a choice of all possibilities. if it was joe biden against kamala harris and pete buttigieg and gavin newsom and asked. those polls are coming back where a large majority of the democratic party is saying they would vote for one of the others. there are concerns that joe biden is not getting any younger or sharper. my advice to any presidential candidate, i don't care what party you are in, the average american out there care about a strong border, a strong economy. they are concerned about this possible banking collapse with the story from the last week, fentanyl killing our kids. they want strong, safe streets and they want good schools. sometimes the back and forth, the division and fight takes all parties away from what's most important. i think that's what should determine the next president of the united states. >> harris: you need to write the
8:26 am
messaging for the president if he will run again. >> i will take it under consideration. >> harris: i volunteer you. the things are what he is not talking about. he can't sell it. he will have to do it outside his basement this time. he told us the pandemic is over. great to have you both. the federal reserve caught in a tight spot ahead of their meeting today. the central bank is trying to balance taming inflation and preventing more banks from going under. house oversight chairman james comer is furious over president biden's denial in the face of clearly evidence of his family's business deals. >> the president stood there and lied to the american people. it is also rich the mainstream media hasn't called him out on it. where are the fact checkers? >> harris: well, we're here. suspicious activity reports, the subpoenaed items that have come
8:27 am
from the banks. we're racking up the receipts. congressman byron donalds of the great state of florida next. we'll get into it.

>> harris: house oversight chairman james comer says the president had better change what he said. comer wants biden to correct a misleading and dishonest denial. his son hunter biden's team admitting family members did actually receive payments from a chinese energy firm. but here is the president last week. >> hunter biden & associates sent over a million dollars to 3 of your family members. any reaction? >> president biden: it's not true. >> harris: comer has the
8:33 am
evidence. >> i have subpoenaed bank records to prove the family took over a million dollars from a chinese communist party-backed energy company for no apparent reason. and he is still denying it and lying about it. so yes, we expect an apology from joe biden. we will get the truth out. eventually the mainstream media won't be aible to let him stand up there and law to the american people about the fact his family has taken millions of dollars from our enemy. >> harris: there are plenty in the mainstream media will let the president lie about that. sir, congressman, let's get started with how this has already been proven. hunter biden's family members actually got payment. how can the president float this lie? it is just not true that they didn't get that money.
8:34 am
>> look, harris, are we shocked? joe biden has been lying a lot and lied most of his congressional career and as vice president and the president. he helped the thing get orchestrated. don't get me the bull jive that hunter and jim were doing it around him and he didn't know. everybody knows it's a joke. anybody with a family knows what is going on with other members of your family especially if you are the one helping to orchestrate the influence peddling because you are the guy in the seat of power. so we know it was not true from day one. he is lying from day one and he will continue. help hired a crisis communications guy at the white house, some guy tweeting house republicans and the things we should be focused on to cover up for the president of the united states. >> harris: i was going to say must be the busiest man on the
8:35 am
planet. if your boss won't tell the truth about something you attack the other side. talk to me, if you would, about what these banks subpoenaed items mean in the big scope of things. over 150 suspicious activity reports with the federal government. that has to get you somewhere more than the president and his family got paid. what potentially could they have been doing that is more than something we just don't like? >> i don't want to speculate. i will tell you right now it is not good. most americans might -- i say might get one suspicious activity report over their lifetime. the biden family has 150. it is so nefarious joe biden is the first president to stop congress from being able to see these suspicious activity reports. even maxine waters was upset about joe biden's conduct with respect to blocking congress from seeing these reports. whether it's barack obama, donald trump, george w. bush,
8:36 am
they all allowed congress to see these reports. joe biden comes into office and stops us from being able to see them immediately. so joe, mr. president, what are you trying to hide? we will continue to investigate and get to the bottom of it. >> harris: look, you flipped the script. that's what congressman maxine waters cares most about. what do you do when you get a republican regime back in the white house and majorities across the hill like what happened when obama went in. what do you do when the script gets flipped. >> we will let the evidence speak for it evil. we are looking at that. if there needs to be ethical adjustments to the rules around family members for the president's family, vice president's family, we need to do that. you cannot have a situation where the business dealings around influence peddling are influencing the decision making of the chief executive or the
8:37 am
chief executive's number two. it doesn't work. we have to get it fixed. the president and vice president have to be focused on the job the american people need done not the influence peddling that has gone on with the family. >> harris: that's where people are concerned now particularly with china. if there were deals done with a chinese energy company, look where we are in a capitulateed position now with our greatest enemy. they are not a friend. federal reserve officials met today, congressman. the first gathering after two major banks collapsed and persistent inflation numbers. many are expecting the fed to hike rates again to bring down prices but some analysts say this actually should be the priority. let's watch. >> i think the immediate job right now of the fed is to focus on the instability of the banking system. i think the second mandate right
8:38 am
now is inflation. so that's why i do think that they probably shouldn't raise rates today. >> harris: all right. i want to go back to the congressman now. you sitting on the committee dealing with the situation with finance. what is your take on next steps for the nation? >> the fed's job needs to be curtailing this inflation and getting it under control. it is crippling families who are poor in america, senior citizens on fixed incomes. they are being hurt the most by this. if you don't get this contagion of inflation out of our economy it will only be worse for everybody. that is job one. with respect to bank balance sheets, right now there is that back stop that the fed opened up. that's something that should be closed quickly in my view. because you have to get to a situation where the banking system overall, whether through consolidations or acquisitions firms up the bank balance sheets that exist.
8:39 am
inflation first, second and third for the federal. we actually have a bill that would get rid of the employment mandate at the federal reserve and have the federal reserve focused on one thing. excuse me, being focused on sound money policy. that's all. that's what they should be doing. bank balance sheets is the number two issue, not number one. >> harris: very interesting. florida's house of representatives passing a school choice bill and that bill would give school choice vouchers to all students in the entire state prioritizing those with disabilities and low and middle income families. five states already have passed universal school choice bills. you see them there on the map. all students have the option of using state funds to go to a school of their choice. and you see many more are now considering this. similar legislation. georgia is one of those states considering a bill that would give more school choice options to families. but one democrat state
8:40 am
representative feeling not all parents are educated enough to make decisions for their children. take a look. >> the problem. i see parents being able to direct their child's education and they already in the lower 25%. a lot of those parents did not finish high school and cannot -- could not finish their own education, i am extremely concerned that we would put money in their hands and that entire piece of life in the hands of parents who are not qualified to make those decisions. >> harris: what would you say to that state representative, that democrat from georgia? >> i would say you are absolutely wrong. parents are the first ones who should be making these decisions, not bureaucrats or school districts. it should be the parents first. look what's going on in los angeles right now. you have teachers unions striking and 600,000 kids are
8:41 am
left in the lurch. look, i have no issue per se with public education. i know there are a lot of teachers there that care. parents should be empowered to choose the institution for their child. it would be the best thing for our children and it would actually bring competition into education in our country which would only make the educational system k-12 better. my colleagues in florida passed it. get it to governor desantis's desk to sign it into law. florida must continue to lead the rest of the country. >> harris: why do they think so little of us as parents? you have had an administration focused on calling us terrorists. what is it about we parents that they just can't take? >> it is not so much about parents. if you empower parents to make these decisions you break up their monopoly in public education. it's that simple. if public education wasn't the unionized outfit it is, the
8:42 am
democrats wouldn't care. they would want as much competition as possible. if you give parents the ability to make purchasing decisions they might choose an institution that is not in a union. why the teachers union and school district and democrats have fought charter schools every step of the way. they fight it here in the nation's capital not because kids get a better education but because the teachers in that school aren't in unions. they can't demonize teachers anymore and now they say parents can make that decision. baloney. the parents are first in line in the life of their children. >> harris: i hope you have another one of those cross-party aisle stalks on the steps of the capitol when i come to washington so i can be there. fun to watch you go at it. congressman, thank you for being in "focus." >> thank you. >> harris: critics taking on vice president kamala harris now amid all of our crises, she had time for a woke birthday wish

marking a tiktok star's transition to a woman. plus a string of violent brawls in san francisco mall has vendors and shoppers living in fear. this is what's happening in parts of our country. but san francisco officials are focusing on a slavery reparations proposal that would cost payers $6 hundred thousand each in that state. tyrus in "focus." mara, are you sure you don't want -to go bowling with us tonight? -yeah. no. there's my little marzipan!

8:48 am
>> harris: it was a mob of dangerous people, teenagers, brawling in a series of violent incidents at a san francisco mall. vendors and shoppers are scared to death. here is the video from last week showing teenagers stomping each other and pulling and apparently pulling in innocent bystanders to the fight. [shouting] >> harris: i will take the apparently away. you can see what they are doing
8:49 am
there. it is a full on assault. just the latest evidence of san francisco's exploding crime crisis and getting younger. murders there are up by 25%. major crime up 6% since 2021. city officials, however, with a big focus on slavery reparations. that will solve the kids beating each other up. the latest proposal would give each eligible black resident $5 million guaranteed annual income of at least $97,000 for 250 years. that's how long they'll be living? no. it would allow them to buy a home in the city for just $1. guess who pays for it all? >> the program won't be funded by pennies from heaven. what you will do is take $6 hundred thousand per family because of the color of their skin and you will redistribute that wealth and give it to
8:50 am
another family because of the color of their skin. it is marxism, socialism. wrong and antithetical to what our founding fathers wanted from us. >> harris: tyrus, fox news contributor. >> and also a black man. so listen, reparations, i know you will be with me on this one. i feel we will team this one together. reparations when it was originally started was to give an opportunity for slaves who were just freed to better themselves. what did everyone do at that time? they farmed. what a better way to give somebody 40 acres and a mule so they could farm and pass down and build wealth. we didn't change those 40 acres and a mule to opportunity in this country which we all have. we both represent that opportunity. so there is no -- that is reparations. it was about giving an opportunity. this is ridiculous. they say if they meet the requirements. so what are they going to do?
8:51 am
