family, faith, and when you get those questions right, those people are a lot better off than some people swimming in money. >> harris: i love that, so beautifully put. toughest of times when you have love around you. i guess it may feel like money but it's not quite the same. >> emily: we have love around us on this couch, mr. wonderful. thank you for joining us today. here is "america reports." >> one of the things coming out of this is it's clear that the fbi, the problem came from the top. >> i think a week from now we'll hardly remember the name durham. >> lives were ruined because of this illegal weaponization of the fbi and doj to do the political bidding of the hillary clinton campaign. >> what you have with john durham, it's a big fat nothing. >> john: battle lines drawn between those who think the durham report was a nothing burger and critics accusing
10:01 am
interfering in a presidential election. another obama era official testifies before the house weaponization committee behind closed doors today. >> sandra: james clapper in the hot seat for his role in pushing the false narrative that the hunter biden laptop was russian disinformation. marc thiessen coming up. >> john: breaking news, prince harry and his wife meghan markle say they were chased by paparazzi. but what really happened. >> sandra: i can say i'm sandra smith and we are in washington. great to be with you. >> john: good to be with you today. >> sandra: a spokesperson say he and his wife meghan were involved in a two hour long car chase and now nypd and mayor
10:02 am
adams are weighing in. >> john: laura is in the newsroom in manhattan, what is mayor adams saying about the alleged chase? >> we have been waiting to get some comment from city officials, prince harry and meghan markle spokesperson issued the statement earlier today saying the couple and markle's mother, all three were involved in what they called a terrifying paparazzi car chase here in new york, and according to reports, it happened after meghan and harry attended an eye ward ceremony in the neutral york area. the chase described near catastrophic, involving paparazzi photographers. lasted over two hours, according to the spokesperson and multiple near collisions. we just got the statement from the nypd which reads, on may 16th, the nypd assisted the private security team protecting the duke and duchess of sussex. there were numerous
10:03 am
photographers that made the transport challenging. they arrived at their destination and no reported collisions or summons or injuries or arrest in that regard. and mayor adams said he's not sure the incident lasted for two hours, not sure. >> ten minutes, a ten-minute chase is extremely dangerous in new york city. we have a lot of traffic, a lot of movement, a lot of people are using our streets. any type of high speed chase that involves something of that nature is inappropriate, you know. police do it under limited circumstances when they are going after violent people, but to do it because you want to get the right shot can turn out to be a place where people can be harmed in a real way. >> this of course brings up the comparison to how harry's mother, princess diana died in 1997 in paris after being chased by the paparazzi.
10:04 am
the prince has long spoken out about the anger of press intrusion, which he blames for the deaths of his mother when her limousine crashed as it sped away from changing paparazzi. harry is currently involved in numerous court cases in london at the moment, one arguing he should be allowed to pay for police protection. that case was in court for a hearing yesterday. his regular royal protection was pulled back when he quit royal duties. we will have more as we get it here in the newsroom, back to you guys. >> john: looking forward to it. laura, thank you. >> we had a productive meeting yesterday and with all four leaders in the congress. it was civil and respectful. i'm confident that we'll get the agreement on the budget, that america will not default and every leader in the room understands the consequences if we fail to pay our bills and it would be catastrophic for the american economy and the american people if we didn't pay
10:05 am
our bills. >> sandra: president biden optimistic tone as he travels to japan for a g7 summit. even as his hopes remain high for an agreement to be reached, some house democrats are moving forward with a maneuver to force a vote on a clean debt ceiling hike. ro khanna, and john thune, and doug holtz-eakin will join us to discuss just that coming up. begin the coverage with jacqui heinrich, she's live from the north lawn. you know, i just came from there, jacqui. i should have waved as i passed by. set it up for us. where do things stand at this hour? >> jacqui: anyone who has watched the process knew it would be the president and the house speaker at the negotiating table hashing out something each of their respective parties could call a success and drum up the votes to pass. but house democrats are balking
10:06 am
at being put in the back seat by the president, pushing him not to give away too much as republicans want to add work requirements to some welfare programs. this was the house minority leader this morning and then the president's parting words as he took off for japan, take a listen. >> work requirements, so-called work requirements are nonstarter. >> i'm not going to accept work requirements that go much beyond what is already -- i voted years ago for the work requirements that exist but it's possible there could be a few other -- not anything of any consequence. >> jacqui: house republicans laughed that off and a showdown ahead and framing the position to the giveaway to china. >> also said on work requirements he would accept not anything of any consequence. [laughter] >> anything that has
10:07 am
consequence. this is a senator who voted for work requirements. if he doesn't want to have something that has consequence, he want to borrow more money from china to pay an able-bodied person who has no dependents, not even to look for a job. not even go to school for 20 hours. >> jacqui: notably a key piece of the trip to japan will counter on the economic coercion, but he called off the back half of his trip, to strengthen security ties in the face of chinese military aggression. now, australia and india are not part of the g7 countries but they will meet with the president on the sidelines of the g7 in japan as biden's critics frame the cancellation as a big win for china, signalling the u.s. is bogged down with domestic problems and is an unreliable ally, sandra. >> sandra: jacqui, thank you. john.
10:08 am
>> john: a live look at the capitol where lawmakers on the house weaponization committee are questioning former director of national intelligence james clapper behind closed doors. his deposition comes a week after republicans say former cia director john brennan admitted the letter about the hunter biden laptop falsely discrediting that story as russian disinformation was "all political" when he testified before the same house panel. so what will come from clapper's testimony? marc thiessen. we think we know what james brennan said, vis-a-vis, or via, rather, jim jordan. we don't know what clapper is saying, but did talk to somebody who has direct knowledge of this, dan hoffman, because he received the email and the letter asking him to sign it. here is how he described, listen here. >> it was definitely a political errand, no question about that. the but it was more of a
10:09 am
political errand than i realized at the time. >> john: do you expect james clapper will come clean about the nature of this letter and how it was distributed and why? >> i don't know, but we definitely need to get to the bottom of it. nothing more insidious in our politics than political interference from people who have access to classified information and then use that access to make claims and basically are saying to the rest of us, look, i can see things you can't see, trust me, this is the case. you saw this with adam schiff and swalwell. >> john: definitely seeing things. >> they are said trump is a russian agent and brennan the same things. at least brennan, when it came to that, had the -- he admitted that he was wrong and got bad information, but then shortly after admitting he had been duped on that, turns around and signs this letter. you know, and that is just -- that's a shameful thing to do. >> sandra: as far as credibility
10:10 am
is concerned, how you build it back after these revelations, marc. >> there are a lot of good people, decent people who have signed the letter, saved a lot of american lives, two types of people. the morells and people doing it politically and then duped into signing this because they were told by people they trusted there is intelligence. if you were an intrepid reporter because the media credibility is as bad, you would call the 51 people who signed and what did they tell you and do digging, they don't want to know, it was their excuse to not cover the hunter biden laptop story and the media and the 51 people, all they needed was what morell said they needed some kind of a talking point and everybody wanted the talking point. >> john: speaking of credibility, let's go to the durham report. we all remember the "new york
10:11 am
times" and the "washington post" won pulitzer prizes for covering the russian collusion scandal, but it was the hoax. it did not have the added benefit of being true. do you expect the "washington post" and "new york times" will say we don't deserve the pulitzers and we will give them back? >> a poll, 84% of respondents say the media is a threat to democracy, 59% agreed the press is a major threat. more americans think the press is a major threat to democracy than donald trump a threat to democracy. media is in tatters. you would think people would want to reclaim their investigations and investigate this stuff. the durham report just came out. one of the things that's completely unreported or uncovered is the fact that the guy who was the source of the steele dossier was under investigation by the fbi for
10:12 am
being a russian spy, that he had tried -- he had worked at brookings, a guy going into the obama administration offered to pay money in exchange for classified investigation, and a quote from durham, possible the intelligence he was providing was in whole or part russian disinformation. so it is possible that the russian disinformation was actually the steele dossier, and nobody is paying -- you would think that pulitzer prizes were in the offing to break that story. nobody is interesting. >> sandra: at the press briefing yesterday, karine jean-pierre, kjp, was asked about this and she appeared to abruptly end the briefing after she got a question about the durham probe and on how there was no evidence obviously to probe the president, the wall street journal editorial board writing why the durham report matters to democracy. will we see a white house that
10:13 am
cares that this happened? >> i don't think so. and she's so bad at her job, it's really hard to watch. it's like i said certain things in a private capacity, i'm now the white house spokesman, i'm not here to present my own views but to present the views of the president, she can't -- she can't do it. >> john: she skedaddled pretty quickly whether she was asked. >> absolutely. good to be on set with both of you. >> sandra: a lot more news to get to, another fox news alert, idaho grand jury has officially indicted bryan kohberger on first-degree murder charges for the stabbings deaths of the four university of idaho college students. the 28-year-old has remained locked up in a jail cell since police arrested him in pennsylvania in late december. kohberger set to be arraigned in court next monday where he is expected to plead not guilty. >> john: more news about your former hometown, chicago police have a message for business owners. police yourselves and ramp up
10:14 am
security by taking some pricey measures. as the city swears in another far left mayor. coming up next, we will talk to a chicago business owner to see how he is responding to all of this. >> sandra: so important to hear their voices. new yorkers sounding the alarm over the subway system as crime is out of control. residents say there is a solution. will the city take action? that's just ahead. >> there are so many people in new york who have to deal with these dangerous subways and you've got homeless people and mentally ill people and violent people constantly preying on people of new york. with a home loan from newday, take out an average of $70,000, pay off debts and high rate credit cards, and save hundreds every month. the all-new tempur-pedic breeze makes sleep feel cool. so, no more sweating all night... ...or blasting the air conditioning. because the tempur-breeze feels up to 10° cooler,

10:19 am
what about the people that have, you know, stuff that they have to go through every day life now that could have been prevented from the city if they would have really listened and actually the people that helped out, they are supposed so. >> john: new york city woman sharing her story about being brutally attached by a homeless man, her horrific story, many victims of attack say the blame lies with the city and leaders. bryan, you spoke to the family of a man who died last friday after an attack on the new york city subway. did they also blame the city and its leaders? >> john, good afternoon. yes, they do. we spoke to the family of 36-year-old richard washington who was stabbed twice in the next on a sunday afternoon in january of 2022. he was paralyzed from the neck down and sadly last friday he died from an infection from the
10:20 am
stab wounds. take a look at the photo, it's heartbreaking. this is richard held by his mother barbara for the last time in the hospital on friday. she and richard's sister say they have been abandoned by city leaders, outraged that new york city cannot help them but is helping thousands of migrants. >> i call mayor adams and i call kathy hochul and i didn't hear nothing from neither one of them. nothing. why would you get immigrants and bring them here and your city streets are not safe. it's not safe here. why would you do that and you don't housing for your own people. my son was homeless seven years. right now i'm facing eviction. there's no place, no help for me. >> the family says richard, a father, was a good man who spent seven years in and out of homelessness but was restarting his life when he was randomly attacked by brian mullennar, who
10:21 am
was homeless and mentally ill. he is arrested, and they say new york city needs to do more to get mentally ill people off the street. >> put them in their own government official island where they can be patrolled and watched and censor everything they do. >> according to the nypd, transit crime in new york city year to date is up 53% compared to the same time in 2021. now, this is all happening in the wake of daniel penny being charged in the chokehold death of jordan neely who was homeless and mentally ill. both families have raise the thousands and committed to using excess funds to donate toward mental health advocacy. neely's funeral is on friday. but john, raven washington, richard's sister, says she fears going on the subway train, it's
10:22 am
a real thing. >> john: sandra and i were talking about that, i lived in new york mid 1990s and late 2000s, and never thought once about the crime on the subway. >> sandra: police in chicago telling business owners to police themselves, even suggesting they install riot proof windows to prevent break-ins. will newly sworn in mayor, brandon johnson bring change, or much of the same? owner of nobleman's irish pub. declan, what was your response when you were urged to police yourself in that city? >> yeah, we have been struggling for the last few years with covid and then the city is saying put in riot glass that
10:23 am
will cost, you know, tens of thousands of dollars. we just can't afford it, we are a small business. hoping that brandon johnson comes in and tries to fix some things that have not been working in the city for a long time. >> sandra: ok, so you had this major break-in, and we have some pictures of what happened here, i know that we have surveillance pictures from your actual restaurant but we have the damage as well. and if you can see the screen there, can you sort of describe the damage that you experienced to your pub after this happened? it's on the screen. >> they smashed the window, they got inside and went through the whole bar and the basement and everything, but what they were doing was scouting out the place to come back again, so they actually have tried to break in a second and a third time and other bars in the neighborhood have been broke in 3, 4 times in a week. but just in our neighborhood
10:24 am
alone, about 25 bars that have been broken into. >> sandra: rather than say as a business owner we hope we can turn this city around and things will get better, they said no, it's pretty bad. you need to protect yourselves, get some riot-proof glass installed was the suggestion, and you priced that out at how much, declan? >> we had one price from chicago bar shop that did a call on it, it was $84,000. >> wow. >> we have a lot of windows at our location, at irish nobleman. >> sandra: in this particular break-in, this is somebody, as we understand it, the police have identified the perpetrator but are unable to prove his guilt. he took a brick and threw it through the window, declan. >> he had a mask on and gloves and the detective said they
10:25 am
caught him but they can't prove that it's him. and a lot of times they are arresting the guys the same day and released the same day that they are arrested. so -- >> sandra: it's a brutal reality, and as viewers know, this is a city i know very well and love and it's a different place right now, and we love our small businesses, you know. we want our restaurants, our bars to thrive. just if you could, leave us off with are you optimistic there could be change with the new mayor there? >> yeah, we are really hoping he does a good job and you know, bringing back extended outdoor patio, which really helped us out. the last mayor let it lapse and we were able to hire additional ten employees plus security, this year they didn't renew it, i'm hoping johnson brings that back for us and that will help a
10:26 am
lot. having the outdoor patio makes the neighborhood safer, lights it up now, but they told us they will write us a ticket for $1,000 a day if we have the patio out. it makes me want to leave chicago. >> sandra: that's a big statement. they can't afford to lose any more business, that's for sure. declan, our best to you. hang in there. and we'll definitely check back in with you. thanks for joining us. >> ok, thank you. >> john: getting tough for so many people. tensions over the debt ceiling talks. republicans wants spending cuts and federal work rules for assistance programs. ro khanna says restrictions should not be considered, but is this battle losing risking the fight against default? we'll ask him coming up.

>> sandra: a horrifying moment caught on camera in los angeles. aerial footage showing a police volunteer swiping away huge swarm of bees but they overwhelm him and he eventually as you can see there collapses on the ground multiple times. the man was eventually taken to the hospital where he is reportedly being treated for any where from between 50 and 100 bee stings. worse nightmare happening right there. >> john: oh, my gosh. >> sandra: the poor guy. it can be really scary, it can send some people into a state of cardiac shock and arrest. >> john: and you could be allergic to a bee sting and if you are, each subsequent time would get worse. 50 to 100 stings, i can imagine. i got stung by a hornet once. felt like somebody stuff a knife, it was awful. our heart guess out to him, hope he is feeling better. president biden and house
10:32 am
speaker kevin mccarthy, one republican proposal tightening work requirements for food stamps and other assistance like medicaid, getting those work requirements, it is a nonstarter for our next guest. bring in congressman ro khanna. good to be with you. you have called these work requirements for medicare, medicaid, snap, a nonstarter. let's go back to 1996 when president bill clinton touted the welfare to work bill, work requirements for people on welfare. >> today we are ending welfare as we know it. but i hope this day will be remembered not for what it ended, but for what it began. a new day that offers hope, honors responsibility, rewards work, and changes the terms of the debate so that no one in america ever feels again the need to criticize people who are poor on welfare.
10:33 am
>> john: clinton hailed welfare to work and the requirements contained therein as revolutionary. if they were good back then, why aren't they good now? >> we have work requirements as you pointed out. what the republican plan would do is impose a lot of bureaucratic snaffus on people who genuinely are out of work and genuinely need the food stamps and studies have shown that additional work requirements aren't going to get people back to work, they are just going to take away food and other benefits from people who need them. >> john: the bipartisan concern in 1996, if you don't put in work requirements or tighten up work requirements, you will create a culture of dependency, and many believe that's what the democratic party wants to do, ensures votes for democrats who will continue those policies. what do you say? >> i disagree with that. i believe in work, i believe that obviously we should reward
10:34 am
work, but here when you look at the actual studies as i said, it doesn't make people work. if you put in additional requirements to what exists, it's just taking away food and benefits at a time where the economy is somewhat shakey and people need that, and here is the other thing. this actually is not going to save a lot of money. why don't we look at the big ticket items that are going to save a lot of money, such as the tax cuts to the very wealthy, such as the fact that our defense budget is over 50% of our discretionary spends, the fact we could have neutrality in hospital fees so hospitals don't charge more than your doctor's office for a medical procedure. that's where we would get big savings. >> sandra: if you cut defense spending with china building it up and the military at a break neck pace, do you not risk falling behind? >> we absolutely have to be strong in the pacific, and i'm for giving taiwan more weapons,
10:35 am
and naval superiority there. we have a lot of waste in the defense budget which is going to defense contractors, which are going for some programs that are outdated or not necessarily necessary, and there are some people on the republican caucus who have also said let's look at defense. i'm just saying let's look at the actual items that would lower the defense -- the deficit. if people want to argue on work requirements and i disagree, let's argue about them, but not pretend it's going to reduce deficits in this country, that's a very small relative number. >> john: we don't know what, if anything, program has agreed to, but according to speaker mccarthy he will negotiate directly, and president sounded optimistic he thinks something can get done. >> i'm confident that we'll get the agreement on the budget and america will not default. >> john: not default, an important thing, we know the consequences of default.
10:36 am
but we don't know what the president is signing on to with speaker mccarthy. will you just agree to anything that the president says is good with him? >> no, we have a constitutional democracy, i get a vote as a member of congress in a separate branch and i think the president should pay the debts. he is the authority to do that, congress has told him to pay this money, we have already passed legislation, he should honor that and pay it and i don't think it should be negotiating on the debt ceiling. we can separately talk about what we need to do to reduce the deficit, but of course i'm going to review it to see if it's good for my constituency and good for the country. >> john: and as always when we bring you on, we like to talk about your home state, california, gone from a covid era surplus to now $32 billion in debt, according to the governor. but california is now considering paying illegal migrants $300 a week for 20 weeks at a cost of what could be
10:37 am
$385 million. that on top of the plan for reparations which could cost upwards of $800 billion, i mean -- i might have missed it, but i don't think the state of california has its own bureau of printing and engraving. where are you going to get the money for all of this? >> well, look, i think that we made a mistake actually handing out checks well past covid, and the governor had done that close to the midterms and now they have to make some hard choices. i do think there is some sense where they can get additional revenue but the governor has to figure out how to have a balanced budget. as you know, states can't run deficits. >> john: and again, that reparations price tag is two and a half times california's annual bucket. so, i don't know where you would get the money for that. congressman ro khanna, good to catch up with you. thanks for joining us. appreciate it. >> appreciate it. >> give us back our jam, we need

it for the kids. >> we want our gym back, we want our gym back. >> sandra: dozens of parents protesting outside brooklyn schools where the mayor plans to house migrants and the kids just want their gym back. >> john: the durham report sparking different reactions along party lines. republicans calling the report damning but democrats say they are not buying it. senate minority whip john thune joins us with reaction just ahead. >> the very people, the very people who told us things that weren't true are telling us on tv you can't trust the durham report. like are you kidding me? ♪ entresto is the #1 heart failure brand prescribed

down is on and the clock is ticking for president biden as republicans and the white house seek a deal to raise the debt ceiling and avoid a default. doug holtz-eakin, joins us now. what do people need to know right now about avoiding this happening because we have been told that this will result in catastrophic failure for the american economy. so, where are things right now? >> a, that's correct. we don't want a default. b, there's a deal to be made here and they have time to make the deal and just have to keep marching forward that. >> sandra: which side is winning? >> it's not going to be about winning in the end. you hear a lot about talk who is right, the morale high ground, we have raised the debt ceiling with policy riders like they are doing right now, about equal numbers of the time. no right way to do this. the question is, what passes the house, passes the senate and
10:44 am
what will the president sign and they are finally getting down to the job, pass a bill. find out what gets the votes and that's the key. >> john: speaker mccarthy has managed to get himself into the position and 1 to 1 negotiating position with president biden which is quite something for him, elevates status as the speaker when the president prior to that seemed to be poo-pooing, like i'm telling you clean debt ceiling or nothing, now they are sitting down and talking one-on-one. >> that's certainly a success for him but success for everybody they are sitting down in this. white house can get the bipartisan deal done. go to the other side, make sure that's in or i'm not signing and only the white house says i get it, you don't like this vote we need it. and the longer the president stayed out of it, my way or the highway, we were not going to get it. this is a divided congress. >> sandra: dow is up 420 points

midday here, a couple hours left to go. can you address the claim from president biden and i hope larry kudlow does not mind me saying this, but whenever the president says this, larry goes off. here is president biden on deficits. listen. >> i'm proud of the progress my administration has made. we reduced the deficit in the first two years by $1.7 trillion in the first two years. and i propose the budget to reduce another $3 trillion over the next decade, that includes more revenue by asking the wealthy and large corporations to pay their fair share. >> sandra: i know you and you are numbers all day. is that a bit misleading? >> larry's blood pressure is off the scale right now, i know larry well enough to know that. look, he just stopped doing emergency spending of trillions of dollars. you don't get credit for not doing something that was necessary by your predecessors.
10:46 am
he's not done anything really to put the fiscal house in order and the claim that he's going to close the deficit by $3 trillion, sure, but raise spending to the highest level in the history of the country, even as a fraction of the economy. so that's the biggest tax, the biggest spend budget you could imagine. it's not a solution to the problems. >> john: a lot of political posturing going on, yellen said if congress does not increase the debt limit, it would raise questions about the ability to defend national security interest, straight out of the textbook, i think mccarthy understands all of that. the question i had, though, doug is what happens if mccarthy cuts a deal with biden that he can't sell to the freedom caucus and then has to use democratic votes to get over the finish line? >> well, i think there are two issues here. one is what are the escape hatches on the debt ceiling itself, one is you do a short-term extension by voice vote no one's fingerprint is on
10:47 am
it. that's an escape hatch or the 14th amendment, you know, mint a coin gimmick, i don't think those work or mccarthy puts his job at risk, pass it with democratic votes and see if the caucus doesn't like it. >> john: and biden will be back on sunday with some sort of announcement, i almost said news conference but we know better.
