worldwide stage. world leaders and focusing on artificial intelligence global security, economy and government. it shows the importance of the summit with the high-profile guest list. >> everyone in the world will look at different countries like the u.s. and china saying who will lead the a.i. race moving forward here? >> that expert tells us china is on the heels of the u.s. leaders will need to continue to be aggressive. >> dana: i wish i could be a fly on the wall there. i would learn a lot. thank you, mike emanuel. >> bill: we have to roll. >> dana: how are you doing back in the saddle? >> i was thinking we didn't have a wager on that thing last night. we'll come up with a better thing. >> dana: we'll find other things to bet on. harris faulkner is next. here she is. >> harris: we begin with fox news alert. president trump's agenda is up against some hardening now.

democratic resistance. for the left, so far it's not working very well. just ask the voters. i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus." 19 democratic attorneys general filed a lawsuit to limit access that elon musk doge has to data. a judge agreed to temporary block doge from those records. president trump is with bret baier, watch. >> president trump: i disagree 100%. i think it's crazy. we have to solve the efficiency problem and the fraud, waste, abuse, all of the things that have gone into government. we talk about hundreds of millions of dollars of money going to places where it shouldn't be going where if i read a list you would say this is ridiculous. you've read the same lists. many you haven't even seen. it is crazy. it's a big scam. >> harris: you know the president won't back down or back away.

how far are democrats willing to go to fight him? watch. >> if we have to take steps to be able to hold them accountable, use the leverage that we have to force it, i cannot support efforts that will continue this lawlessness we're seeing when it comes to this administration's actions. >> to be clear, senator, you are open to voting yes to shut down the government to make this point? >> this is on them. this is about whether or not they can get the votes. they are the majority. if they cannot govern then that's for the american people to see. >> harris: they are such hypocrites on this issue. it was a tiktok right around december that they were on the other side of the argument. if republicans want to shut down the government for what they believe in, they'll wear that. here are some republicans. >> a lot of my democratic colleagues and most of the members of the tofu crowd are

upset like musk stole their dog or something. one thing they are not talking about is what mr. musk is finding. >> i think the democrats are either -- the stages of a loss, they are in the grief stage or the anger stage. he won because he committed to make government accountable and transparent. that's exact will i what he is doing. >> harris: doge is working to quickly cut the fat in the federal government and it just announced it will cancel more than 180 million in health and human services contracts and that includes $170,000 for dr. fauci's museum and halt penny production. there is the administration's federal worker buy-out offer, the challenge from the left will see court action in just the next few hours.

alexandria hoff is in washington, d.c. >> tonight is the deadline for workers to decide if they are taking this buy-out. it was originally on thursday but pushed back as part of a lawsuit against it. judge has not weighed in on the merits of the case but will hear arguments from the government along with a group of federal employee unions. the unions argue the office of personnel management lacks the authority to make this offer. they question whether the government is able to pay the buy-out. the opm responded to the deadline writing the program is not being blocked or canceled. the government will honor the deferred resignation offer. karoline leavitt stated we're grateful to the judge for extending the deadline so more federal workers who refuse to show up to the office can take up the administration up on this offer. tonight's midnight deadline comes as thousands of federal workers are returning to offices today. for many it's the start of their first full week back in person. according to the email sent to

federal employees titled fork in the road. accepting the resignation program means that they retain all pay and benefits regardless of daily workload through september 30th. connecticut's democratic attorney general called the program a potential scam. >> if you are a federal employee, be careful because there is as far as we can tell no authority for this action, no guarantee that you will get paid through september 30th. no guarantee that this is real. >> the downsizing effort is real and a win/win. 65,000 federal workers have accepted the offer so far. >> harris: a big question and just because of the number of all these lawsuits now, is this the new lawfare on the list of legal fights from the left, they are now pressing lawsuits against president trump's orders to end birthright citizenship. stop sending transgender inmate

to male prisons and put usaid workers on leave. vice president vance a yale law graduate posted if a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that would be illegal. if a judge tried to command the attorney general and had to use her discretion as a prosecutor, that's also illegal. judges are not allowed to control the executive's legitimate power. phil holloway now, former assistant district attorney, former police officer and legal advisor to the georgia sheriff's department. phil, good to see you. first of all, your reaction to the vice president's words there. his post about you can't really jump on the executive's power this way. >> well, the vice president is exactly right. harris, this is an anti-constitutional effort by the courts in many of these cases to simply substitute the

judgment of an unelected judge for that of the duly elected president of the united states and many instances like the case out of the southern district of new york lawsuit brought by letitia james and other attorneys general injects the courts do into the relationship between the political supervision of federal agencies and the president of the united states and his authority. this is a clear anti-constitutional violation of separation of powers. nobody disputes that these courts will allowed to engage in judicial review. if congress or executive oversteps their constitutional authority in some other way, yeah, they can issue an injunction. but just because the judge doesn't like what the the president might be doing, that doesn't mean the judge gets to separate or inject his opinion and substitute his judgment for that of the president. it is unconstitutional, it is

wrong. it's lawfare 2.0 or 3.0 whatever the number is up to now. the justice department -- >> harris: i want to get to this, phil. it's a different on this list of legal battles another one. a federal court blocked the trump administration from sending three detained venezuelans to guantanamo bay. the president promised to expand the prison to hold up to 30,000 criminals, violent illegal aliens. new images now show the first plane arrivals there and dhs secretary kristi noem visited that site last week and what she said about who actually is being held there. >> i watched a plane load of people unload at gitmo that were pedophiles, child pornography, drug dealers that these cartels are partnering with the chinese to kill our next generation of americans. that's who we are putting at

gitmo. >> harris: so we know about what is happening in gitmo. there has been transparency there. and know there are challenges there. what is your take on it legally? >> well, i think the concern with respect to those individuals going down to guantanamo bay might be something along the lines of whether they have access to counsel. that's a legitimate legal concern. there is nothing inherently wrong with the president housing or administration housing individuals who are legitimately detained or arrested under the immigration laws there in the custody of the united states government where they are housed is more or less irrelevant. as long as they have access to counsel, basic constitutional due process, safeguards in place that is perfectly fine. it is my understanding that particular injunction might be going away. i hope that it does because once the government offers assurances to the judge that these people will have due process, look, the people that were there, the

terrorists that were there, the government has able to give them some type of due process. that's not going to be a problem i think in the long run. the president is going to be able to continue to use the facilities at guantanamo bay if that's what his judgment is. >> harris: so all of that, though, i want to quickly touch on this lawfare. you are right, that's what i've been calling it. you called it 2.0. part of the same chain. it is a push against a man who was a candidate experiencing that who is now president experiencing that. your take. >> it is lawfare. it is the whole idea of the left is going to resist. they are going to take it to the courts. they will take it to the streets and doing everything they can to thwart the will of the american people who elected donald trump president. he said he was going to do these things. he is doing these things. it should not surprise anyone. the end of the day it is wrong for the courts to overstep their article three power and try to

basically inject themselves, the courts, into the operations of the executive branch. it is not how our system of separation of powers was intended to work. >> harris: you are right about that. the american people not only did they vote last november but recent polling shows that they want the current president to keep going, a majority forward with what he is doing. phil holloway, thank you so much for your time. democrats still are going after the trump administration's moves at lightning speed. they are trailing after him while he puts his agenda into play. some on the left are angry they can't come up with an effective way to stop him. you just heard an attorney talking about why that is. because the way they are doing it is unconstitutional in many case. others say stop trying and find some common ground. plus the trump administration is on the ground in the wake of hurricane helene. remember, the president went there and then he went to see

the devastation in california post the fires and he said all hands on deck. thousands of people are still suffering today it is north carolina and the secretary of transportation is there. >> the president just in the last five days closed 85% of the cases in north carolina. how quickly the response can be when you have somebody who cares. that wasn't the way it was under the previous administration. >> harris: from homeland to transportation. sean duffy is touring the damage. an exclusive one-on-one with the secretary on the ground in north carolina next.

(man) mm, hey, honey. looks like my to-do list grew.

>> harris: transportation

secretary sean duffy is touring the tennessee/north carolina border right now and he will join me live in a moment for an exclusive one-on-one interview. that important section of this major i-40 remains unpassable since hurricane helene hit the freeway on september 26th. part of i-40 in western north carolina collapsed and was washed away. as we've reported, 106 people died in north carolina alone. some 70,000 homes were damaged or destroyed. homeland security chief kristi noem was there just last week and reacted to the criticism of fema's handling of the disaster. >> i would say yes, get rid of fema the way it exists today. you need to let local officials helping. >> harris: the president revealed he would be signing an order to overhaul fema or

possibly get rid of the agency. he also suggested the federal government could give money directly to states so they could respond to the disasters. fema reports it has provided assistance to 153,000 house olds. thousands remain homeless, though, as of friday, about 2600 households were in fema-paid hotels, 150 in fema-provided temporary housing units. transportation secretary sean duffy in "focus" with me now live. he is in pigeon river gorge, north carolina outside of asheville. i can see that stretch of i-40 behind you washed away. first of all, questions about the department of transportation and what you can do and why you are there. >> so you see i-40 behind me. this is the eastbound lane. it has completely washed away for much of the section between north carolina and tennessee. so our role as the department of

transportation is to provide money and expertise to the two departments in north carolina and tennessee to rebuild this important artery that connects people and commerce not just between the states but across the country. we're out here looking at the damage and assessing how much money it will cost to do the rebuild. it will be billions of dollars to rebuild just this stretch of the highway. also as you see it has been washed out through here. it will take rock to fill this back in and build the roadway back up. we can get rock 30 or 40 miles away. it will take a lot of time and money. but the forest service can partner with us and think they're close, about a mile and a half over this mountain we can get access to rock to drive down the cost and time frame it will take to rebuild the road. we're here assessing and looking how we can partner with local

officials to rebuild quickly and donald trump doesn't move at the speed of prior administrations. he moves lightning quick so we want to go fast, we want to go cheap and we want to go safe. >> harris: having somebody on the ground and weaving together all of the connection points between where do we get the rock that's faster, easier, cheaper, that's critical. it is an all hands on deck approach to a disaster in realtime. i want to point out, because i'm learning more about i-40, too. i lived in that part of the country for a while. major east/west highway. i do know it stretches from california to north carolina. what i'm coming to speed with, the third longest freeway in the country. so getting this right also increases the ability to get stuff into the people who are still suffering, sean. >> that's right. it's not just the roadway here. california to north carolina. off of i-40 you are connecting

thousands -- tens of thousands of people and communities that rely on this artery to access food and materials. just as you look down here again this is very unique. you have a mountain on one side and you have a river on the other. when you start to see the slides of rock but also the mountain fall back into the river it becomes very complicated to engineer your way back to build a road like this. again harris, this is going to be the most expensive emergency relief project that the department of transportation has done in its 50 year history. that's how big this project is and how important it is to get the rebuild right. >> harris: you were talking about communities, arizona, new mexico, texas, oklahoma, arkansas, tennessee and north carolina, that third longest freeway in america crosses through parts of those states. little rock, memphis, nashville, winston-salem if you go by cities. this is critically important.

sean, up until now we didn't have the detail with the pictures behind you live. that tax people going beyond the emergency of just feeding folks right after the storm and we're so long after that storm now. why has it taken so long? >> well, listen, again for this roadway and others, you want to make sure you do it safely and the engineering side of this of securing what exists of the roadway back into the existing rock can be complicated and takes time. so again we are hoping in the next month we will get -- i'm looking behind me now. the western lane, it's two lanes. we'll hopefully get single lane traffic opened up in a month so trucks can get through here. the point of this is i come from small town america and i think when you live in small town america like many of the

communities here in western north carolina. they feel like the government doesn't care and with this administration they understand there might be from a small town, they might not be the richest people, but you know what? we have not forgotten about them because they're americans and deserve our help and aid and we will provide it to them whether kristi noem with fema or us with d.o.t. donald trump came here one of his first trips. we'll make sure that every american is treated fairly and he can quitably as we look at the disasters around the country, specifically in california and north carolina. >> harris: when i asked that question why it has taken so long, september 26th was so long and they were for the most part not seen after the way they needed to be. now kristi noem is taking a look what's broken at fema and you are bringing forth the transportation department. that agency to say look, we can

get things moving again. that helps the local economy and forgive the term but downstream and upstream from that point, too. >> no pun intended i take there harris. you are right. we're here today and this is a imagine or artery like we talked about. there are so many small roads and bridges that connect the communities up in the mountains. many of them have been partially washed away. the mudslides and rock slides that have devastated their homes and churches and their stores and their coffee shops and so it is those -- that infrastructure as well that we will look at and figure how to help them rebuild. if you don't have roads and bridges that connect communities, it has a huge impact not just on the commerce but on the well-being of people that want to go and need to go to the hospital and need to get life-saving aid and care. that doesn't exist. again, sometimes people don't

think about this part of our government as being so critical but if it doesn't work, if you don't have the infrastructure that connects people, again it affects people's lives in profound ways. harris, i have to tell the you, i was expecting warm weather when i was out here. it is really cold in the mountains of north carolina. i was stomping my feet before i got on with you. hardy people who are resilient and willing to fight back and make sure they don't have to move somewhere else. they don't want to move anywhere else. this is their home and families have been here for generations and they want to stay here and our work is important so they can stay in the places they love and communities they've enjoyed for so long. we will do our work so people can live on. >> harris: i remember when president trump was there right after the inauguration, one of the first places that he visited and he asked do you plan to stay, leave?

and to a person they were no, this is where we are from. this is us. now you are talking about a way that will sustain them economically and as you say also in their hearts and minds to know their future is there. sean duffy, our secretary of transportation on the ground in western north carolina on the border with tennessee. thank you very much. >> thank you, harris. >> harris: the boy scouts of america has a new name. it is gender neutral. not everybody is on board with that. plus there is no let-up in president trump's border crackdown. >> president trump: we just set records for closure. we have the strongest border we have had in many years. since my term. but even maybe even for many, many decades before that. >> harris: immigration customs and enforcement ramping up this week. attorney general pam bondi is laying down the law over people who leaked information to tip off the violent illegals.

ben domenech next. gotta have a lucky charm when you ride, right? makes me feel safe and protected out there. that's why i never leave home without a photo of the little ones. bracelet from my husband. lucky rabbit's foot. lucky rabbit named sfoot. it's swedish. that's a whole rabbit. named sfoot. well, there's really no need for a lucky charm when you ride. not when america's #1 motorcycle insurer's got your back. we're just going to ignore the fact that carl has a rabbit. named sfoot.

military decoration awarded by the united states government. the tunnel to towers foundation and the congressional medal of honor society recognizes valor beyond the call of duty. britt slabinski, a recipient of the medal of honor himself, sat down with fellow recipients to hear their stories from their military service to their transition into the veteran community.

it■s nothing we won, right? we're pretty vocal on that, saying, look, i didn't win anything like we're a recipient of this. you're going to highlight me for the day. we're four guys get killed. never crossed my mind about receiving the medal of honor. never. i was told i was being put in for it the day after the battle. the highest level of valor. you want to understand, why did these people lose their lives? why aren't they in my place? can't refuse it. we don't have the wear if you don't want to. they feel you earned it. people think war ends the moment you get home. no. war sticks with you. for me, it was like i was in a fog. really? for. for several months. you're literally on the edge of life and death at any moment. and then 12 hours later, you're at home and you're going to birthday parties and you have to go back to assimilating that life. it's fascinating how many of our brothers and sisters. it■s a significant problem. end up on the streets. tunnel to towers is taking a leadership role. and specifically when i think about the veteran homeless population.

we as an organization, we have gaps and it takes partnerships to come in and help us fill those gaps to ensure that nobody is left behind. and that's what tunnel to towers does. we just recently gave them our citizen honors award, recognizing all the great work that they have done. it's a fulfilling a promise to this nation, saying that, tunnel towers is gonna give you smart homes, pay mortgages. there's no level of recognition that rises to what is being done on behalf of those gold star families. and we're not forgetting you. never forget. go to t2t.org and donate $11 a month. thank you.

>> harris: well, president trump had promised this. 1500 additional military men and women are now headed to the southern border in the coming days. the numbers are building at the southern border of military help. ice operations are ramping up across major cities continuing to arrest violent illegal aliens. it comes after somebody was leaking from the inside of the department and it did some serious damage to a few of the planned raids. attorney general pam bondi. >> if anyone leaks anything, people don't understand that jeopardizes the lives of our great men and women in law enforcement. if you have leaked it, we'll find out who you are and we'll come after you. it is not going to stop our mission. it is not going to stop the president's mission to make america safe again. >> harris: new numbers from the

texas department of public safety show illegal immigrant encounters have fallen to an all-time low fewer than 400 now. according to the u.s. border patrol chief apprehensions decreased by 91% from the same seven day period last year. if we just flashback to when former president biden suggested that he could not close the border, remember this? >> have you made a final decision on taking executive order in terms of what you want to do at the border? that includes the power to shut down the border as it was suggested? >> it suggested that we're examining that. we're examining whether i have that power. there is no guarantee i have that power all by myself without legislation. >> harris: did he not know or was he not telling the truth? there are only two options. it is being done.

the headline. instantly securing the border. trump proves that joe and company could have fixed it. brooke taylor from dallas. >> the pentagon has said they'll send additional 1500 troops to the southern border. the total of 3600 troops and the number of illegal migrant encounters continue to plummet as you just mentioned. show you more of some of our latest numbers here on thursday. 352 illegal encounters, friday 289, saturday 331 encounters. in guantanamo bay the military gearing up to expand the facility to hold up to 30,000 illegal migrants until they can be deported to their home countries. the most violent criminal illegal migrants will be taken there. ice operations target illegal

migrants across major cities. in houston ice arrested a three-time previously deported criminal alien wanted for aggravated assault causing serious bodily injury. baltimore ice arrested this ms-13 gang member from el salvador convicted of possession of a loaded handgun. in boston, an illegal fugitive arrested wanted for aggravated homicide in el salvador. >> it takes a whole team to find somebody that doesn't want to be found in the neighborhoods. we'll keep doing it until tda iser add rated from this country. that's my number one goal. >> the number of encounters continue to drop. tom homan won't be fully satisfied until he see the criminal arrested in the interior of our country continue to go up. >> harris: thank you very much for us.

ben domenech. fox news contributor and editor at the large at the spectator. first of all, just the rapid nature of how this is folding out compared to what we were told by joe biden last administration and the former president himself. >> you know, the speed of this i think just speaks to something that you know that i've been saying for years and many of our colleagues have been pointing out which is when joe biden and secretary mayorkas and everyone else within the biden administration was claiming that their hands were tied, that they couldn't do anything about what we saw happening on the southern border, they were lying to us. they were lying aggressively and in the case of joe i guess you could at least have the excuse perhaps he didn't know he was telling a lie. that wasn't the case for the people actually working for him whose assignment it with as to protect our southern border to make sure that our country is secure. and they were lying down on the job purposely in order to have the kind of things happen they wanted to see happen when it

came to the chaos on the southern border. they were pushing back against local officials in particular, governor abbott who was trying to do his best to secure the border and take responsibility for things that he really should never have had to do in the first place given the responsibility is on the federal government side. but look, we've seen how effective this is. it sends a very strong message that it has happened as rapidly as it has. i'm not that surprised. you neu it would be priority number one but part of a holistic approach to mexico that is being honest about the degree to which their government, their leadership and everyone else on that side has been corrupted by the cartels and by everyone else that has been getting what they wanted out of our southern border in terms of its porous nature while americans are screaming with frustration on our side seeing the effect it has had on our communities. >> harris: when you think forward based on where we've been it is hard for it to be

enough well they will sit down and not in office anymore. maybe the president wasn't well enough for people to tell him the truth bringing the numbers down at the border. the border assigned vice president, kamala harris who tried to take his place in the white house definitely knew. >> she has no excuse because she absolutely knew. our situation as relates to immigration in this country. we see people using the same talking points that they did back in the early 2000s about the way that these migrations work. it is a complete different scenario now than it was 20, 25 years ago in terms of what we're seeing and the effect it is having on our community. the effect of crime and truly invading our country with all sorts of things kill our citizens. not just criminals but also the drugs that they bring into our communities and that is something that has had a profound effect across this nation. i'm glad we finally have someone back in office and people back in office around him, including

pam bondi and secretary noem who care deeply about this issue and understand it affects everyone in america, not just those close to the border >> harris: democratic congressman is defending himself sending out posts in spanish and chinese telling people how to handle encounters with our immigration enforcement. >> the trump administration has carried out deportations, raids, all across the country including here in new york city. these are certainly uncertain times. but no matter what, it is important that you know your rights when interacting with law enforcement. >> harris: if they are here illegally what would that listen tail? goldman's office defended his message saying it was intended for american citizens and legal immigrants wrongly detained by ice. they are going after the worst

first. >> yeah, i'm sorry, it doesn't pass the smell test. very little that comes out of his mouth really does for me. this is not a situation where he was speaking to legal immigrants and americans about their rights. obviously it's something that is perfectly fine in inforge those people. in this case he is targeting that message toward people who want to come here illegally and want to try to navigate the system and throw gum in the works in a way that will push back against the policies from trump's administration that he despises like so many other elitist leftists who are insulated from the effects of so many of these problems that happen in our communities across the country. i think that it is the height of hypocrisy on his part to represent himself as being a defender of law and order, the whole reason he got elected in the first place, when he is trying to sew disorder and try to help people avoid the consequences of the laws that are on the books.

>> harris: how to work your way around it. let's get to this. i wondered how this would go out and now we're seeing it, how it is playing out. after more than a century the boy scouts of america has officially changed its name to scouting america. gender neutral. it comes years after a policy that changed the way that girls could join back in 2018. so boy scouts of america was allowing girls to join if they wanted to. since the name change was announced last year, membership has gone up fewer than 2%. as of may of 2024, 361,000 female participants had joined the organization representing nearly 16% of its membership. the organization's president says this. >> what the name change does is it allows us to rebrand and reset 115-year-old organization,

it's kind of nice to have some things that are new and fresh and different. really speaks to the organization that we are today and that we want to be in the future. >> harris: social media reactions one user writing they no longer want young boys to become young men. another one says woke ruins everything. we have daughters. my question is, that number isn't higher because why? why didn't more girls join this gender neutral no longer boy scouts of america? >> you know, harris, why do we have to move away from having things are for boys and things for girls? it is one of these things i don't understand. why does the left want to have this situation where we just have to force these different young children together in a way that doesn't allow for the space for people to learn and to grow as young boys, as young girls? to me that's something that is actually very important about

the future of masculine tee in america, to be able to have some things where boys can learn to be young men, where they can develop skills together, learn to work together. that's not a bad things as at and why youth sports is critical helping our kids grow and learn and one of the things that frustrates me time and again. i don't know why the american left thinks we can't have these spaces where boys can learn to become men in ways that benefit them, that benefit our communities and leads them to be stronger individuals as they grow older. >> harris: and will this push out or somehow diminish what is happening for girl scouts of america? i mean, i don't know if we looked at this fully. you will willing to wipe one away. what happens? does everybody go to the same thing? who decided that? it is amazing. >> it is careless. we need to help our kids grow in

ways to allow them to lien into the aspects of their identity they like the most. it gives them the freedom to really learn about themselves in ways that is going to make them stronger americans as they get older. >> harris: ben domenech. always great to have you if "focus." >> good to be with you. >> harris: the disarray on the left is really visible now. as president trump is really leaving them behind and going forward to do what he promised the american people. plus the president has signed a dizzying number of executive orders in his first three weeks. many related to this. >> president trump: i don't know if you've been watching we got rid of woke over the last two weeks. it is gone.

five. it isn't stopping chris murphy who know that and they think this is it. >> the most serious constitutional crisis the country has faced since watergate. the president is attempting to seize control of power and for corrupt purposes. the president wants to be able to decide how and where money is spent so that he can reward his political friends. he can punish his political enemies. that is the evisceration of democracy. this is a red alert moment that the entire country needs to understand our democracy is at risk. >> harris: some democrats are calling for war. we saw that last week. it is not that. david avella and a former member of the hillary clinton national finance team. david, start with you.

the outcry to be pushback before we know what it yields. fill in the blank. >> we're seeing first and foremost that the this trump term and this one. the democrats are less popular than republicans. 31% of voteings now approve of the democratic party. 57% disapprove of the democratic party. they have no clear messenger. chris murphy, a known liar on his resume helping to lead the charge? more than all that, harris, we now have more transparency coming to americans on how their dollars are spent since the days of school house rock and learning how government actually operates now. >> harris: republican gains in voter registration are raising some red flags for democrats in key states like nevada and typically blue new jersey. i know i live there. that's underscoring the inroads

the republicans have made across the country this last election. new round of polling shows a positive outlook on president trump so far. majority say they would describe the president with words like tough, energetic, focused effective. seven out of ten say he is delivering on what he said he would during the campaign and it also puts his overall job approval rating at 53%. al, when you look at this i know democrats will say you need a new message, this, that and the other. sounds to me like you need to stop talking and listen to voters. >> well, electeds won't stop talking. but look, i would rather senator murphy be talking about, for example, while usaid may have had some woke unwoke programs they do important work. projecting american strength in countries where loyalties may be

split between the u.s. and china. we need to be better on what we're talking about when we scream and money and say the sky is falling, most people tune us out. >> harris: you know usaid, i won't spend much time on this. there is a lot to get to this with topic. i don't know if you spend money that we need business. we have trump to do that now and people take him seriously. we get it for free. nbc news report says democrats are struggling to keep up with the president's pace and their review shows trump signed more executive orders in ten days than many of his recent predecessors did in their first 100 days. a journalist here. >> i'm baffled and speechless. he is barreling downfield. democrats are nowhere on the field. never seen anything like not just the activity but the inability of his opponents to forget stopping him.

they are barely slowing him down. >> harris: al. your reaction. >> some of it is theatrical like the gulf of america or taking away biden's security clearance but he is acting swiftly and overwhelming the playing field. i agree with mark that we as a party are a bit whip sawed by this and not focused on how to respond. we don't know what to do. >> harris: david, real quick. >> the border is getting secure, americans are learning how their money is being spent. all the things trump was elected to do. >> harris: that's what they said in the polls. he is doing what he said he would do. who could be surprised? you wonder why democrats aren't ready. great to have you both. thank you for watching.
