this follows comments from mcconaughey revealing that harelson's father may have had a fling with his mom during his parents' divorce. >> dana: do you think they're saying it to get in celebrity news? >> bill: i think that's exactly what they're doing. >> dana: i have a feeling. i'm impressed with your follow-up. you have a lot of attention to detail and you know the viewers of newsroom appreciate it. >> bill: we won't let that one go. >> dana: harris faulkner is up next. here she is. >> harris: we begin with a fox news alert. republicans put a deal on the table to save the nation from defaulting on its debt. it would be devastating. it is up to the president, though, to work with all lawmakers and solve this crisis. they are set to meet with him and now late word biden will just sit with them but he will not negotiate anything. the nation did not hire a deal maker with this one. i'm harris faulkner and you are

in "the faulkner focus." americans face real economic consequences as politicians are dug in. more and more lawmakers are saying that the president and the house speaker must find common ground but the house -- the white house sounds like it is not really interested in doing that. >> this is not an issue that we will negotiate on. he is not going to negotiate over avoiding default. this is congress's constitutional duty. he will not negotiate on the debt ceiling. very clear. that isn't going the change. congress needs to avoid a default. i'll leave it there without conditions. >> harris: without conditions. that sounded like a negotiation. for their part, house democrats are now trying to use a procedural scheme to bypass speaker mccarthy's debt bill. republican senator mike lee and senior congressional correspondent chad pergram on capitol hill. let's start with the news with

chad. >> it is called a discharge petition, 218 members can go over the head of the speaker and put a bill on the floor. but democrats only have 213 votes and this gamut has only been successful twice in the past two decades. senate majority leader chuck schumer says he is open to spending cuts. lawmakers must first raise the debt ceiling. >> obviously a time to talk about that. time to discuss those cuts is not hostage taking with the debt ceiling. that's too dangerous. the time to discuss it is after yards as we do in the budget and appropriations process. >> the committee for responsible budget says it is risky not to lift the debt ceiling. >> it's nonsense to insist that this only be done as a clean debt ceiling increase. in the past many, many times we've increased the debt ceiling and through bipartisan efforts also put in place measures that would improve our debt whether it's a fiscal commission or

spending caps or actual savings. >> mitch mcconnell will not broker a deal with his old senate pal president biden. mitch mcconnell says a deal is up to the president and house speaker kevin mccarthy. >> it should be clear to the administration that the senate is not a relevant player this time. they have got to have a measure that can pass the house. how does it pass the house? it has to have the support of the speaker and i'm behind the speaker. >> there is a stalemate until the white house meeting with congressional leaders next tuesday. lawmakers believe a market shock or credit downgrade could spark immediate action. harris. >> harris: thank you very much for getting us started. appreciate it. op-ed titled biden demands clean lipstick for his spending pig as excerpt reading democrats say republicans must lift the debt limit with no strings attached and accept on trust the biden

gang's assertion that it will go along with spending restraints in a separate budget talk. republican senator mike lee of utah is hear. ranking member of the joint economic committee serving on the budget, judiciary and energy committees. great to see you today. first of all, let's talk about this. do you trust the white house on the back end of the deal in a separate talk to talk about cutting spending? >> no, no, not at all. this is a way the white house has of saying heads we win, tails you lose. we won't fall for that. there is no chance that will work. we're using the same strategy, the same discussion, the same wisdom that joe biden himself embodied and expressed in 1984 talking about the need when approaching a debt ceiling increase to deal with actual spending problem. we need to do it now in connection with the debt ceiling bill. by suggesting that we ignore

this, he is playing chicken with the american economy. look, the house of representatives under speaker kevin mccarthy's leadership and with the help of a whole lot of republicans, they passed a really good deal. a really good compromise to increase the debt ceiling and at the same time reduce federal spending by $5 trillion over the next decade. we have a growing list of republicans signing onto a letter i prepared making clear that republican senators are not going to support bringing debate to a close on any debt ceiling bill that doesn't contain meaningful spending controls like those found in the house bill. >> harris: you know, i do want to get to this because -- i just have to say this overall. the president's approval rating. gallup looked at it. 37%. he said he would bring the nation together. what is he doing right now? >> well, he is not doing a lot to bring the nation together. unless he meant the far left wing of the democratic party.

he is tearing everyone else apart doing it by saying a lot of things that aren't true. suggesting, for example, that somehow it's irresponsible to demand spending limitations in connection with the spending bill. the opposite is true. >> harris: the "wall street journal" editorial board calls all of it chuck schumer's debt default asking where is chuck? he has denounced the house bill as dangerous with his usual nuance but if he wants to avoid the default debt, he will have to pass a bill through the senate. if he were serious about avoiding a default as he claims to be, he would sit down with house speaker mccarthy and senate minority leader mcconnell. what is your response? >> it is true. that is what he needs to do. he does have to get it through the senate. he has to achieve closure. it means as long as 41 republicans are willing to say we won't just give the president what he wants and just pass this so-called clean debt ceiling increase we'll demand

significant spending reforms in this. it cannot pass. it will not pass. he has to get in the game. this is happening. in the meantime the white house is flirting with this idea that's very dangerous. something they floated to the "new york times" today suggesting that somehow the constitution makes it illegal, unconstitutional to have a debt ceiling. this is utter science fiction fantasy. it is dangerous. they are wrong and they know they're wrong but they also know they are losing this legislative debate because the american people are demanding better as they suffer under the yoke of inflation. >> harris: i want people to understand, you hear democrats talk about this and the world will blow up. you hear republicans talk about it and they want to save the nation from pain. so there is some pain potentially there. what is it if they can't reach deal on the debt ceiling and just have a complete stand-off on all of it? >> so if there were no deal, then once we blow past what's known as the x date.

the date the treasury doesn't have any more means with which to borrow. borrowing authority having lapsed and it can't invoke extraordinary measures anymore. reported to be around june 1st according to the treasury secretary janet yellen. once we go past that date the treasury can't issue any more bonds or hold auctions or issue more instruments of debt. what that means is there would have to be a rapid prioritization of money as it comes through the door. they would pay interest on the debt first. >> harris: what does it mean for americans? sitting at your kitchen table and paying such high prices for two years since biden got into office and lost at least $8 thousand on average of salary because of inflation each year he has been in office. what does this mean? >> peril on either side. if we get to the moment where we just described where we blow past the x date all of a sudden a bunch of government programs won't be funded and great uncertainty as there is great

flexibility in the secretary of treasury to decide where the money goes. you don't know which government programs will be defunded. something we want to avoid. it is why there is a responsible way of handling this. if on the other hand if we pass a so-called clean debt ceiling bill one without any spending limitations as president biden is demanding, what that does is also horrible because what that does is perpetuate this massive biden inflation that has been harm americans. people in utah shelling out an addition a $1 thousand a month every family every month because of the biden inflation. this will get much worse if we increase the debt ceiling without constraints. >> harris: he was president of the senate as the president. that's his job for eight years. you think that he could get together with chuck schumer and work something out to get this to go to the floor. he is the one with 50 years in office experience. it is amazing and disappointing that the president of the united

states will come to the table but not negotiate. let's move on. thank you for explaining what's at stake. the senate judiciary committee held a hearing on changing the ethics of the u.s. supreme court. it was a mess. and an op-ed said it was purely a democratic party attack on court east legitimacy. republicans tore into the left for questioning the credibility and integrity of only the conservative justices. here is a taste. >> the left despises clarence thomas because he is a conservative african-american. >> today's hearing is just the next chapter in their federal power grab. >> this assault on justice thomas is well beyond ethics. >> i hope we don't have to have a justice actually killed before this body will take judicial security seriously starting with justice thomas. you make it clear justices who disagree with them will pay a price. >> harris: all right. we had a technical difficulty

come up with senator lee and we lost him but wanted to show you that because it is critical. by the way, there were no justices at that hearing. so while the democrats were attacking -- you could watch it. it was happening. clearly the conservative side and not anyone else. if there had not been republicans in the room to defend them, it would have just been their say, nothing but. all right let's move on. fox news alert. russia is claim that ukraine has tried to assassinate president vladimir putin in an overnight drone attack on the kremlin. it crashed short of its target. a german newspaper reports the ukrainian secret service launched the craft loaded with explosives supposed to hit an industrial where putin was expected to visit but blew up 12 miles away. kiev said it had nothing to do with this alleged incident and suggested it could be used as a pretext for a new russian attack

inside ukraine. senior foreign affairs correspondent greg palkot is live with more on this. greg. >> there were a lot of accusations and denials flying around. some very wild video and potentially dangerous consequences. russia saying it was a drone attack overnight on the kremlin calling it an assassination attempt on russian president vladimir putin that ukraine was responsible and they reserve the right to respond. video of the symbol of russian power being targeted by two drones including flames, explosions, debris, circulated on social media but unverified. ukraine denies it had anything to do with it. a pretext for russia to escalate to increase its war against ukraine. they say putin was unharmed by the alleged attack and at his residence away from the kremlin. they ran video of him today meeting with officials to prove it. the government of zelensky who

was in finland saying such an attack would add nothing to its own military efforts against russia. as for washington, harris, secretary of state blinken saying he can't validate any of the claims adding anything coming from the kremlin needs to be taken with a large shaker of salt. democratic senator chris murphy calling the moscow story fantastic say it could be a false flag and self-inflicted to justify further actions. either an attack orchestrated by kiev or ukraine sympathizer inside russia. there have been drone attacks in russia before or some elaborate twisted scheme by moscow. right now we can't rule anything out. still checking through it all. back to you. >> harris: appreciate the reporting. thank you, greg. the white house refuses to call it a crisis. this wouldn't be the first time. however, apparently bracing now for a flood of illegal immigrants. it plans to call 1500 men and

women in our military to the border before the end of title 42. that's that public health restriction driven by covid. trouble growing for the president's secretary of state. >> so much take the shove el out of antony blinken's hand before he finishes digging his own grave. >> harris: more republicans are accusing blinken of lying about his relationship with hunter biden when he testified before them. an, i want you to know something. your spouse has earned the right to apply for a va home loan. a va home loan is unique. it's different than other loans because it allows you to borrow up to 100% of the home's value. that extra borrowing power may allow you to pay down debt, lower your monthly payments, put cash in the bank, and give you the peace of mind that every veteran deserves.

>> harris: authorities are charging jackson mahomes with sexual battery. he is the younger brother of kansas city chiefs quarterback

patrick mahomes ii. he has won two super bowls and this involves an area restaurant owner with the younger jackson trying to forcibly kiss her. there is video some of you may have seen online. now he has been booked today into johnson county jail in kansas facing three counts of aggravated sexual battery and one count of battery. jackson mahomes bond is set at $1 hundred thousand and scheduled to appear in court and we're hoping to obtain video of the alleged incident that we can show you on air. you can watch it now online. we want to be able to bring you that when we get it. fox news alert. the illegal immigrant wanted for mass murder in a texas neighborhood is now in custody. law enforcement, a team of them rounding him up. francisco oropesa was deported at least four times and had been on the run since the mass

shooting happened on friday. authorities say he didn't put up a fight when they found him, just miles from the initial crime scene. they got a tip from the f.b.i. hotline which led them to a house in cleveland, texas, where they located the suspect hiding in a closet under a pile of laundry. what a coward. he is accused of murdering five of his neighbors including a 9-year-old child. neighbors were asking him to stop making so much noise with his gun. he killed them allegedly. he is being held on $5 million bonds. border towns are taking matters into their own hands. title 42 health restriction is ending eight days from now. three cities in texas have declared states of emergency as thousands of illegal immigrants are streaming in daily. and expected to get worse. the white house refuses to admit there is even a crisis going on there but it did approve the

pentagon's mobilization of some troops. 1,500 men and women in our military to go to the southern border. republican congressman tony gonzalez with this reaction. >> it highlights the biden administration is waving the white flag and agreeing the border is no longer safe, humane and orderly process and calling in the troops. >> harris: texas governor abbott tweeted this. this does nothing to stop illegal immigration. i deployed up to 10,000 texas national guard to the border to fill the gaps created by biden's reckless open border policy. the question is how are another 1500 going to help? power panel. doug collins former georgia republican congressman and richard fowler fox news contributor. doug, i will start with you. this is now bigger than the emergency that they had been dealing with before title 42 was set to end. what do you think needs to be

done immediately? >> it's hard to believe that this is a bigger problem. yes, title 42 is ending. this is something that has been going on through the whole biden administration, the -- the open border is their cause and shown no desire to fix it. we've been warning for months when this goes away you will have even more folks coming across because they see it as an open door like the green light the biden administration has. they now want to send troops. they are using our troops as a show piece here to say look we're doing something and trying to help. the reality is, it's not going to until they get serious about closing the border. >> harris: when is that going to happen? what they put in place. i read some of the details of what they want to do now with these 1500. we had senator joni ernst on,

former military herself, just trying to talk about they will pull those troops back. they won't be actually on the border so that agents can do more processing and the like. the problem we're facing, richard, all those tens of thousands of people who go around the checkpoints. now they will flood in and we have nothing. we got nothing to stop them because we're outnumbered. >> thanks for having me, harris. i think you have three questions what should we be doing in this moment? one it's good to see the biden administration is finally sending troops there. congress needs to come to washington and we need to actually pass a bipartisan bill that can include border security but also needs to include a modernization to the immigration system so we don't have to deal with this influx of folks crossing the border and apply for asylum in your home country or more immigration judges to deal with the backlog of asylum cases is how you secure the border. that's what needs to happen more than anything else. >> harris: it is interesting to

hear you say use the internet. the app the president is boasting about, that that will help, there are so many complaints that you have people south of border now angry at our federal government. not even citizens and angry at our federal government because the app doesn't work. this is just basic mess. doug, quick and we'll move forward. >> this will be a surprise but rich and i agree. we can have a bill in congress. some are the things that need to happen. legal immigration and asylum is broken. overstays of visas. you also have to have a border policy that says you aren't welcome unless you come legally. >> harris: republicans accusing secretary of state blinken lying under oath about emailing with hunter biden. senators chuck grassley and ron johnson wrote a letter to blinken just this week laying out what they call his false statements to the senate in december of 2020.

as we heard yesterday, the secretary of state blinken denies having anything to do with the infame otherwise letter calling hunter biden's laptop disinformation. >> with regard to that letter, i didn't -- wasn't my idea, didn't ask for it or solicit it. i think the testimony that the former deputy director of the c.i.a. mike morrell put forward confirms that. >> harris: chairman led by republican jim jordan, that committee firing back saying quote, transcript doesn't lie. blinken's call helped set it in motion. and the drip drip doesn't stop. fox news learned of new 2011 emails revealing that hunter biden helped his business associates get access to vice president biden. richard, the president has said over and over again he never had anything to do -- didn't know of anything with these business associates.

didn't know of his son's business dealings. but now there are receipts he met with them. >> since 2018 senate republicans have been investigating hunter biden. after that since the republicans took control of the house of representatives they've been coming on. >> harris: just approach the receipts that were just thrown into the public sphere about the fact that the secretary of state -- we'll start with the president. the president actually met with hunter biden's business association. >> what you have happening here over and over again is republicans pointing to the drip of evidence on hunter biden. my point is if you have it and you have all this evidence, call a hearing. subpoena hunter biden and when you are done send recommendations to the justice department who have an investigation open against him. until then don't come on air and do segment after segment talking about drip, drip, drip and do nothing about it. that's what we've seen for the past couple of months and since 2018 when republicans opened up

their investigation on the senate side. >> harris: would you be okay with the president and his son being subpoenaed? >> the republicans have the evidence go ahead and run the subpoenas. they don't have it or they would have done it already. >> wow, richard, we agree. they have the receipts. >> where are the subpoenas? >> great question. where is mer irc garland and the d.o.j. investigation. i don't interrupt you. you don't want to hide this one. the d.o.j. have ignored this. it is coming out. the reason the d.o.j. has been pressured is because these things come to light. receipts come to light. the one i'll be worried about now is mike morrell. mainstream media. you start watching. they'll start protecting blinken and this because they don't like the process. you have it right. d.o.j. can do this right now. why doesn't d.o.j. do it?

>> once again if republicans have it let them call a hearing. >> harris: we'll move. i can't wait to bring you back. thank you. the receipts, now subpoena, go for the president. you heard it from a democrat on this show. all right. chicago's crime crisis keeps getting worse. new numbers show just a small percentage of murders are getting solved in the city. is that because there are so many of them? plus the situation in san francisco is dire. laura ingraham with a first-hand look. >> it has been something that help keep me alive and helps me not think about some of the trauma i've been through. >> we can't be the only solution. until people want to make these hard decisions this will continue to happen. >> harris: massive retail stores are pulling out. they say it is too dangerous to do business there. stay close.

>> harris: big businesses escaping downtown san francisco taking jobs with them. dangerous crimes forcing many stores closing shop in that city. crime, drugs, homelessness have plagued san francisco for years now. but now more and more retailers say it is too risky to remain open. people who live there say it is sad and scary. >> i think they'll lose a lot of tourism because people are afraid to come here. >> it's very sad. you don't feel safe. someone stealing from you or being attacked by someone. >> harris: lydia hu has more. when they stores leave they take a lot of jobs with them. >> huge economic impact here as nordstrom is announcing it will

not renew two leases for two department stores in san francisco. that covers around 350,000 square feet of space in the city. the chief of stores jamie nordstrom told employees in an email the dynamics of the downtown san francisco market have changed dramatically over the past several years. impacting customer foot traffic to our stores and our ability to operate successfully. and the owner of the mall of westfield told the san francisco chronicle in a statement that the closure, quote, underscores the deteriorating situation in downtown san francisco. a growing number of retailers and businesses are leaving the area due to the unsafe conditions for customers, retailers, and employees. nordstrom is the third business to announce plans to leave the un

union square area following anthropology. they are the 20th business planning to leave the area since 2020 according to reports. the business's closure is adding to concern about san francisco's trajectory. crime soaring, residents leaving. workers remaining remote. vacancy rates are record highs and diminished tax revenue. some say in the city the solution starts with boosting the police force. according to city stats the police department is down about 340 officers since 2020 spelling a big problem for getting crime under control, harris. back to you. >> harris: it's one of those cities that defunded the police. laura ingraham took a wack through the city's tender loin neighborhood. >> i'm 30 years. i have a family, husband and

children. >> where are you getting the fentanyl? >> off the street from people. to me fentanyl has been like something that has helped keep me alive. it helps me not think about some of the trauma i've been through. when i don't get it, like, i can't breathe sometimes or have anxiety really bad. but when i have it, i need it and immediately calm down. i immediately calm down. >> harris: jonna caldwell is with me now. just seeing laura there. we know people are in pain and we get on a plane and we leave and i have to tell you, i went to high school in the southern bay area. it is so hard to watch an area that i loved and still love become this. >> i have to tell you, i was not

expecting to see that. that's extremely a sad set of circumstances and unfortunately reminds me so much of people i know and love and grew up with. you know, we know just from the evidence that was presented just a couple years back that now 100,000 americans have died within a year's time over an overdose of a drug. we've seen policies pushed in places like san francisco. you've seen national policies where the biden administration have come out with the drug kits for smoking crack cocaine. it is not right, not okay and also influencing the greater issues that we're seeing in san francisco, chicago, baltimore and across the country. crimes, violence which a lot of folks aren't seeing justice for. it has to come to an end. it will take a community who refuses to accept what has been given to them and we have not seen that kind of response from these communities across the country. >> harris: that's so true. when you look at what happened

in your hometown of chicago. the voters had a choice. they didn't have to go farther to the left. i mention we get on planes and come back to our homes. it is in these cities, too, right? it is all over the countries. new numbers are showing that murders are going unsolved across the country, no surprise. particularly bad there in chicago. the windy city only saw 34% of murders between 2016 and 2020. that is far below the 50% rate for the entire nation. that number is the lowest of any developed country in the world. one public policy expert warns it is undermining whatever trust there is in the police and it is a vicious cycle. the police need for the prosecutors to finish the job. >> that's right, harris. i will tell you even that 34% number of clearance, the numbers are really worse when it comes to the black community. those numbers are far lower. what i've come to see, harris,

out of my time in chicago and across the nation, there is a soft bigotry that exists within the black community that has been pushed on them by democrats in their policies that says it is okay that crimes aren't being solved. this is just the way it is. it's just the way it is when your family member gets murdered and no one solves that issue. it is just the way it is when you have all these failing schools and black children, boys and girls reading way below grade average. it is okay. this is what you just come to accept. i got a message for those folks, it is not okay. we can no longer accept this as our reality. i understand that this has been going on for decade after decade but folks have to smarten up. no one is going to save us. not the government, not a political party, only we can save ourselves. and that is the message for today. we have to do better. we have to be honest about it and stop being politically correct about the issues.

for some folks when they see me on tv they think it makes black folks look bad. these are the realities and they must come to a change. >> harris: we are talking the truth. that makes everybody look bad in this situation because it is not changing. you look right when you tell the truth and that's what we do. >> that's right. >> harris: i'm always sorry for your loss. the gun violence and things that people politically talk about is one thing but when you suffered loss politics don't matter. you are so right. we'll have to save each other and save ourselves. there is beautiful christian. we'll see you soon. >> thank you so much for showing him. >> harris: we could see another basement campaign from president biden. few questions, few events. he jokes about the fact he walks away and doesn't take questions. the analysts say it is his best strategy. another high profile democrat calling on 89-year-old dianne feinstein to quit now. candidate nikki haley,

republican, with her take on the focus yesterday. >> she has had a wonderful career. i respect all the years she has put in. this is exactly why i'm for term limits. we can't afford to sit and play the seniority or political games. we have to protect america. >> harris: tyrus in "focus" next. ♪ veteran homeowners to combat today's rising prices. lower your monthly payments with the three c's: pay down your credit cards, pay off your car loan, consolidate your debt with a va home loan from from newday. this is going to be great. taking the shawl off. ok i did it. is he looking at my hairline? is plaque psoriasis making you rethink your everyday choices?

>> harris: president biden's re-election campaign kicking off at a snail's pace. axios is reporting when it comes to staffing and events, it is already months behind where barack obama's 2012 re-election bid was at the same point. the president was barely visible during his 2020 campaign that ran largely from his basement. a "washington post" column suggests it's part of his strategy and that the joke is on the media. a quote. we all know why the 80-year-old president doesn't do a lot of news conferences or one-on-one interviews that might put him on the spot. even if his prime biden had a runaway month. his prime is far in the past.

his rambling and meandering musings have gotten worse. the president's defenders insist it's all good. >> joe biden is agile, capable. >> let's not forget more americans voted for this president than any other president in history. >> people are on fire for the biden/harris ticket. >> polls will go up and down but what won't change are the facts. >> harris: oh, let's get into the facts, tyrus, fox news contributor. >> agile campaign? >> harris: you don't think the president is agile? >> no, i don't even think he is slow. but that's -- he doesn't have to run. you can run his campaign with two people. don't vote trump that's what he is running on. maga is evil. don't get a lot for that. there won't be a big push. what we see is what we get. he is not doing interviews and they'll run clips of the evil empire that is maga, that's his

campaign. barack had to run and beat romney. he had things he had to put in the people's mind to vote. this administration is simple. just don't vote for trump. that's his campaign slogan. >> harris: wow. by the way, i check every morning and at the top of the show it was 37% approval for this president in gallup today. and you think he doesn't have anything against him? the polls are now showing at least 28% for robert f. kennedy junior and marianne williamson. if they get to a third of the vote he might have to get to the stairs. >> abe lincoln could get momentum against this current administration. the bottom line is the same. they aren't concerned with polling. they aren't concerned with what's going on. i call it the crack a few eggs administration. bad things happen to the american people and they don't care. their only goal is we just have

to beat president trump. >> harris: they better watch out for the polling. it may indicate people will stay at home. we're interviewing democrats who say we'll stay home. president biden raising eyebrows with this from an event that marked the muslim holiday. >> president biden: thank you for serving, i'm not kidding. you want to come and make a speech? [laughter] hush up, boy. as my mother would say. >> harris: he blamed that racist trope on his mom. >> was it his puerto rican mom or white mom? he was raised by different factions. >> harris: depending on the audience. not the first time he spoke that way. here is another example. >> president biden: i'm here with my senior advisor and the boy who knows louisiana very well, man, and new orleans.

>> harris: tyrus. >> maybe i'm old fashioned. when the president of the united states addresses you, unless you are an actual 3-year-old little boy you should probably get your name and be mentioned instead of being called a boy by anyone at any time. he didn't remember his name. we've accepted this. the mainstream media accepted this. if president trump or anyone, mitt romney, anyone would have said boy, i'm so happy this boy tyrus is here to talk we would have had a misunderstanding in that building. >> harris: if anybody else said this besides him. he told charlamagne tha god, you aren't really black if you don't vote for him. biden said that. he only sees us, people of color, he tells us what he sees. i'm looking for a black woman for this job. be on the lookout for. come on, he has to start to clean this up. the fact that many in the mainstream media don't put pressure on him, they are

fomenting this bigotry. >> who is causing him to change behavior? nobody. anyone of color in the administration saying i don't like the words he used. where is the press secretary, kamala and anyone. saying i'm not accepting it. why would he change? no grown person going to call me boy. i wouldn't except that one second. >> harris: the navy is taking some new woke steps to boost recruitment. they've hired an active duty drag queen to be its first digital ambassador in hopes of attracting more young people to serve. joshua kelly, stage name is harpy daniels made the announcement last fall on a social media post. a senior naval official says kelly was chosen as one of the navy's five digital ambassadors

knowing they can serve with honor and have private interests. the navy wants to boost its size by the end of this year. >> anyone that wants to support serving in our military branch, i'm all for it. when you send a message this is 1 of 5 and you want to reach out to all different walks of life and anyone can serve and that's the message i'm fine with it. but it just seems that these woke ambassadors always seem to miss the mark. you are recruiting people to serve in this country, to go overseas to possibly give their life for their country. i think it should be a little more serious in terms of what they are getting into. there won't be a lot of time for trainings up when you are

digging a foxhole. >> harris: we all wear camo. they are watching. their bottom line is america won't be ready when it needs to be. they are focused on -- on the battlefield there is only one nice. preparedness. >> no dress-up on the battlefield. >> harris: "outnumbered" after the break. and save hundreds of dollars every month.
