average american family could see costs rise by as much as 136 per year. closing the loophole will impact small businesses who are relying on the frequent shipments from overseas for their own businesses here in the united states. but advocates for closing the loophole say it gives foreign e-commerce companies the upper hand. they are exploiting trade laws and intellectual property and consumer protection. they say something has to be done. >> bill: interesting. >> dana: i've never ordered from them and don't plan to. apparently a lot of people are. >> a lot of people are. if you wait a month for your product to be delivered. it takes a long time. you can find good deals. >> bill: they have moved to vietnam or singapore? >> that's what they are doing. moving to other countries enjoying the loophole with the united states so they can get around paying the tariffs. >> bill: interesting. see how it plays out. >> dana: thanks for being here.

trump administration is looking to cut wasteful spending and downsize the government and it continues. welcome to a new hour of "america's newsroom," i'm dana perino. >> bill: happy president's day to you. >> dana: 43. >> bill: that's a fact. >> dana: i love george washington, the first george w. >> bill: lincoln and reagan. democrats struggle to try to keep up with the trump administration. doge sweeping through federal agencies with doge cutting out wasteful spending, fraud and abuse. latest moves doge is looking to tackle the i.r.s. with an audit and slashing the way wasteful green spending by the epa. >> dana: lee zeldin finding billions doled out for partisan pet projects and wants it back. >> we aren't talking about chump

change here but billions of your tax dollars. we at the epa and trump administration have zero tolerance for waste and abuse and we're coming down hard on this. >> dana: rnc chair michael whatley joining us in a moment. grady trimble with more on the epa and hillary vaughn live on capitol hill with how doge is going down there. >> well, the doge is auditing the auditors sizing up the i.r.s.'s budget and expenses like they do to americans every day. doge employee is reportedly seeking access to the integrated data retrieval system at the hires to give them visual access to taxpayer accounts. direct access is needed to identify fraud and fix it. i.r.s. will lay off thousands of probationary workers in the middle of tax season. cuts could happen as soon as next week. democrats continue to demonize what doge is doing. republicans are defending them. >> democrats are chasing their

tail right now. because all they can do is attack elon musk and these young folks. my dad was 20 or 21 years old when he took those off of dead japanese soldier he killed in combat to save this world, the greatest generation. all these so-called kids that we tend to demean are heroes. >> doge is finding billions of dollars in lost cash. government agency of housing and urban development found 1.9 billion misplaced under biden. doge announcing these funds were earmarked for the administration of financial services and no longer needed. 2 billion the treasury can use to other things. social security. there are more people with social security numbers than there are u.s. citizens, about 60 million more musk saying. far more eligible social security numbers than citizens in the u.s. the biggest fraud in history. democrats say doge is blowing all of their findings out of

proportion. >> these are by and large performtive the atic measures. they pick one off cases and say it is broad policy. what an entire department or agency represents. it is not true. they've just taken a hammer to it. they have fired people, furloughed people. chilled them. not doing their job and americans will die because of it. >> musk also found there are over 4 million people in the social security database who have an age over 140 years old. right now the oldest living person is 116 years old and they live in brazil. >> dana: supposedly they don't have a social security number. we'll check on that. thank you so much. >> bill: meanwhile epa administrator is lee zeldin on the job looking to make green spending cuts vowing to retrieve $20 billion in taxpayer money that former president biden earmarked for climate projects right before he left the oval office. grady trimble is live in d.c. on that. what did you find out?

>> the current epa says the previous administration parked roughly $20 billion in an outside financial institution that the plan was to dole out that money for green energy projects. current epa says the agreement with that bank must be immediately terminated and all of that money must be returned. trump epa officials allege the goal of the previous administration was to purposefully obligate all of that climate money in a quote rush job with reduced oversight. epa administrator lee zeldin is promising to stop it in its tracks. >> i don't know if you ever heard of the climate united fund that received $7 billion or the justice climate fund that received almost $1 billion. the coalition for green capital that received $5 billion. we aren't talking about chump change here. talking of billions of your tax dollars. >> zeldin has already canceled a-50 million grant for an organization called the climate

justice alliance for its pro-palestinian stance. the head of that group is lashing out at the trump administration and blaming the biden administration, too, saying quote, unfortunately the biden administration failed to process these obligated funds intended to help communities facing disasters from climate change and left the decision in the hands of the trump administration. despite claims this administration will protect clean water and clean air for the nation, it has attacked basic protections for neglected communities from day one. elon musk on the other hand is praising zeldin for doing an awesome job saving taxpayer dollars and for perspective going back to the 20 billion at the top. if you look at the median income in the united states, $20 billion is equivalent to the annual salaries of nearly half a million americans. this is a lot of money here. >> bill: no doubt. grady thanks. maybe we're just getting into it in the early days. grady trimble. fox business, washington.

>> dana: for more on this republican committee chairman whatley. democrats concede republicans running circles around them online as trump remakes washington. the democratic response to trump one texas lawmaker said is too slow and too tepid and not meeting the moment. do you think that you will get enough republicans to go along with all of these things even if it starts to hit some of their constituents like for example farmers who get some money from usaid or senators from southern states that might have health research money coming in? >> the president has a mandate right now from the american people to eliminate waste, fraud and abuse. when the president ran he said he was going to rein in inflationary spending. it is a critical component of it. the american people do not want to see their tax dollars wasted. they want to see accountability and strongly support what the president and elon musk are

doing with this effort through doge. >> bill: you just heard that sound bite there that americans are going to die. i don't know when or what area or what effect it might have on some people. how do you respond to that? >> look, the people who are screaming the most right now are the people who are affected by these cuts. these are all people who have been entitled to this money. they've been receiving this money. the fact is that the taxpayers, the voters of american have said no more. they need accountability and need the tax dollars going where they are supposed to go, where they are needed to go to be able to help this economy. so yes, we're seeing a number of folks on the democratic side of the aisle doing everything they can to defend the indefensible to try to make sure they will keep this spigot rolling and the fact is, the president has said we're not going to continue this type of wasteful spending. >> dana: are you surprised that

democrats have just been so confused thousand move forward? >> they have been trying to defend the indefensible. during the last election cycle joe biden was a bad messenger and kamala harris was a bad mess eve evening -- mess evening guerre. they support unlimited inflationary spent, open border. weak american. the fact is the the president and his team have been playing offense since day one because they are implementing an agenda they ran on and right now the american people are supporting it. >> bill: andy mccarthy thinks trump will win on a lot of these cases, if not all of them. when you get into the i.r.s. and the software going back to 1960 there can be modernization there and see how many democrats get on board. in the meantime the arrows will

come fast and furious as they have already. people like elon musk who sat down with donald trump and sean hannity in this exclusive interview. >> they want you two to start hating each other and they call him president elon musk, for example. you know they are doing that to you. >> president trump: i see it all the time. they tried it. stopped. they have many different things of hatred. actually elon called me and said they are trying to drive us apart. i said absolutely. i get 98% bad publicity. outside of you and your good friends it is like the craziest thing. you know what i have learned, people are smart. they get it. >> they do. >> president trump: they really see what's happening. >> yes. >> bill: outside of sean hannity thinking about what i'm about to say here, two guys who don't give a flip it's trump and musk, sir. >> president trump did not need this job. he has an absolutely fantastic

family, fantastic business, fantastic life. but he is fighting every day for the american people. the exact same can be said for elon musk. the fact these two men are willing to fight every single day for the american people is something we should celebrate rather than criticizing in the media. >> dana: thank you for joining us on this president's day. great to have you. >> great to be with you. thanks. >> dana: take care. >> from the top of my stairs you could hear it sounded like the ocean. we just have to wait, you know, let it recede i guess. i don't see where it's going. >> dana: deadly flooding hitting tennessee and kentucky putting americans under with alerts. details next and then there is this. >> the border is more secure than it's ever been. we'll have additional facilities built to retain for removal. not release, but removal. >> a migrant shelter in san

diego shutting its doors. business is down. >> dana: democrats lost at the ballot box last move and now fighting the trump agenda through the courts even though voters made it clear they wanted change. former congressman dean phillips will join us next. >> we have to fight in the courts, push back in the congress, and continue to push back in the community. as house democrats we're doing just that. ♪ with fastsigns,

>> we have to make sure we have everyone who is displaced because of this flooding in a warm place for the days that are coming ahead, including most of this week that will be challenging, especially given at the moment we have 14,672 people

without power. >> a lot of folks need help. over the weekend ten people are dead in kentucky and tennessee, hit so hard. storms striking southern u.s., strong winds, heavy rains, catastrophic flooding is just all over these images here now. a number of water rescues taking place. in tennessee, meanwhile, a levy failure along the river forcing rescues there. had about 100 million americans under weather alerts on sunday as that storm ripped across the country. some towns got more than seven inches of rain over the weekend. we'll keep an eye on that. >> dana: 325 hours, nearly two weeks wasted is how much time senate democrats have burned since president trump took office in january putting up roadblocks to showdown and delay confirmation of his cabinet. it is not working very well. chad pergram on capitol hill. hi. >> good morning.

that number of 325 hours says a lot about how much time democrats made the senate burn just to confirm president trump's nominees. some of the nominees were not even controversial like secretary of agriculture brooke rollins. they can't block the nominees but they can slow the process. >> democrats have stood up time and time again to some of these dangerous nominees like kash patel, like the people you see coming into the justice department. >> now get this, later this week democrats will mandate the senate take a procedural vote just to take another procedural vote to tee up a confirmation vote for f.b.i. director nominee kash patel. democrats believe he is unqualified for the job. >> we should vote down kash patel but i am greatly concerned that there are no republicans at this point expressing concerns about him or voting against him. he came out of the judiciary committee last week and is scheduled for a floor vote later

this week. we'll push the time as much as we can but eventually i think he will be confirmed. >> republicans scoff at these tactics as they barrel through the slate of nominees. >> what we've seen since president trump took office are the democrats running around like chicken little saying the sky is falling. any time president trump does anything they call it a constitutional crisis. that's swamp talk. >> the slowdown has not directly interfered with the pace of confirming nominees. the senate has confirmed 16 nominees. that's ahead of president trump's 2017 pace. a confirmation hearing for -- she may need help from democrats. some republicans believe she favors labor too much. >> dana: we'll pay attention to it. thank you for the update. >> the president is not allowed to say yeah, i don't like that and spend this money but not

that money. that's why so far there is a whole lot of lawsuits that have been successful. >> we'll continue to work together in an all hands on deck effort to push back against the far right extremism that is being unleashed on this country with record velocity. >> the dominant objective of this administration is corruption. and lawlessness. we're winning the court. more than a dozen federal injunctions and temporary restraining orders have been issued. >> bill: you have it. one day. sunday. democrats continue to bang the drum against the president determined to fight him in the courts as a slew of lawsuits play out. dean phillips is a former congressman out of minnesota. he is live in california today. thank you for doing our show. you are a lone voice out there. maybe not so alone in a moment here as i will show you. last week you said democrats are missing the boat. getting steam rolled. over the weekend "new york

times" huge piece came out venting at democrats and fearing trump liberal donors pull back cash. a quote. many remain frustrated the 1.5 billion frenzy of spending of kamala harris resulted in defeat. are they banging up the right wall here now trying to run to any judge they can find to stop trump? >> well, bill, i don't think i'm alone when i say most americans want our federal government to be run more effectively, more efficiently, and provide better value to americans. that's universal. i think i speak for most americans, democrats and republicans when i say that should be done transparently and should be done legally. we live in a culture in which both side use the courts to further their policy objectives or to push back or oppose. that's natural. but i'm part of the party of progress and am i a little disappointed seems we would rather be opponents than

participants and progressives? yes. so i think two things can be true as once and we're facing one of those. we knowed to reform our federal government and do so legally. everybody who is disappointed when she see shoplifters and smash and grabbers not going through our judicial system i think we should hold the government and others accountable the same way. if it's legal go for it. if not we need to be a nation of laws. if we lose that we'll be in deep trouble. >> bill: senator mark warner out of virginia is in your column now saying this. watch. >> i think the democrats brand is really bad. i think this was an election based on culture. the democrats kind of failure to connect on a cultural basis with a wide swath of americans is hugely problematic. i think the majority of the party realizes that the

ideological purity of some of the groups is a recipe for disaster and that the attack on over the top wokeism was a valid attack. >> bill: it seems in behind site he is probably right about that and voters felt the same way. >> indeed. i wish senator warner and others who have felt this way for a long time had raised their voices when it mattered, bill. we had an election in which too many of my colleagues were quiet and fearful of repercussions if they spoke the truth. here is where we find ourselves. now the opposition party that had a grand opportunity to still be a party with some sway in washington. that's how the cookie crumbles and part of the problem in washington, and around the country. we have to start liberating politicians to speak the truth. we need term limits to provide incentive to do so. no matter your politics we have to start recruiting and appealing to young americans to serve the public.

i would just ask that mr. musk and mr. trump as they pursue this policy of efficiency look at the pentagon, the 1 trillion we're spending, healthcare that we have 2/3 of american bankruptcies due to medical debt. look at the education system. we have to be a nation of progress and i wish my democratic colleagues and republican colleagues would work together to do better for all of us. neither party is doing it real well right now. >> bill: pentagon is in the crosshairs and department of education was there last week and moving on that. gallup poll. would you rather see the democratic party become more liberal or stay the same or more moderate. 45% say more moderate. when warner says wokeism is over the top he's right. >> you don't have to sacrifice your values to be pragmatic. the liberals need to start listening to americans not just

in big cities but around the country. that's a recipe for success. >> bill: we'll keep in touch on that. thank you for your time, sir and thank you for coming on. dana. >> dana: china touting its relations with europe as president trump pushes with peace with russia and ukraine. tom cotton wrote the book on china and he is here next.

jewish family service san diego has been running a rapid response migrant shelter that offered care packages, food, legal services, travel coordination, medical screenings and immigration case management. fema records show they had been allocated $22 million last year. ngo says they received none of that money. jewish family service san diego points the finger at president trump saying in part quote with migrants no longer able to use the cbp one application the shelter has not received new families due to recent changes in federal funding and policy the shelter services will be paused until there is a better understanding of future community needs. the trump white house tells fox promises made, promises kept. president donald trump ended the app that facilitated the movement of illegal immigrants into our country. let's hope these empty shelters are used to take care of americans in need. one san diego county supervisor says the biden administration

released 155,000 illegal aliens onto san diego streets last year alone. republican tells fox he is glad to see the border effectively closed with no migrants for the shelter. >> i'm really glad to hear that this money is no longer needed. it can go back to the federal government. we don't want it in san diego county especially if we don't have anybody coming across the use it. >> dana we've reviewed paperwork the ngo filed with the state of california planning to play off 150 employees april 11th as a result of the shelter closing and fema money drying up. send it back to you. >> dana: thank you. >> bill: happening overseas right now in saudi arabia. new video of marco rubio meeting with the saudi crown prince and prime minister, mbs in riyadh, saudi arabia. rubio -- his host said very good to have you today. we have a lot of things to talk

about with bilateral in the region in a lot of areas. we'll be more than glad to work with you. president trump has a decision. i believe we can achieve positive things for saudi arabia and many countries around the world. so want to share that with you as that meeting gets underway. michael waltz there as well on the couch. 33 now past the hour. to this. >> president trump: when i left we had no middle east problem or no russia going into ukraine. putin never would have done it. i came back and we have the whole world is blowing up. so when we straighten it all out one of the first meetings i want is president xi of china, president putin of russia and say let's cut our military budget in half. we can do that. >> dana: president trump last week about wanting to eventually meet with xi and putin. it comes as he pushes peace talks with ukraine and russia. now new reaction from china.

its foreign ministry saying chynna will serve as a stabilizing factor and firmly act as a constructive force in a changing world. joining us now is arkansas senator tom cotton. new book is out tomorrow called "seven things you can't say about china." i love the cover. i love the book and love the length. you can get through it quickly. when i saw the chinese say that i thought about this. put up for everybody the seven things you can't say about china. number three, you say that china is waging an economic world war. how does that fit into this and what trump was saying? >> thanks for having me on. china has been wage than on economic world war addressed primarily against the united states for decades now. through a combination of rigging the game inside of china, subsidizing their own companies and dumping products in america, cornering the market on critical manufacturing around the world and also by attacking our companies with breathtaking

espionage through cyberattacks, spies, forced technology transfers. china has been waging a war against american businesses and workers for decades and used those ill gotten gains to underwrite the most rapid military build-up in the history of the world clearly directed against america. a couple of things that china has been doing that this designed not to create as they said a multi-polar world but a world in which china calls the shots and other nations have to dance to china's tune. seven things you can't say about china is a way to ring the alarm bell for normal americans that whatever they think about china and it's usually pretty negative, china is even worse and more dangerous than you can imagine. >> dana: one of the things you add is that china could win, number seven. a little bit alarming. there is also this. president trump talked about tiktok and possible deal that he thinks china might like.

watch. >> president trump: we have a lot of people interested in tiktok and i hope to be able to make a deal. it would be good. people have learned it's very popular and we'll have to probably get approval from china to do it. i think china will be interested. it is to their benefit, too. >> dana: how do you think it will work out keeping if mind you say at the end of your book several things you can do and one of them being talk to your kids about these apps. >> the law requires tiktok's parent company in china to sell and break ties with communist china entirely. tiktok is not just another social media app not like facebook or instagram or x. it's controlled by china. tiktok is a way they're coming for our kids. a lot of harmless content. cat videos or cooking

instruction but a lot not harmless. teaching teenage girls to hate their bodies or to have eating disorders, showing teenage boys graphic violence and encouraging kids that express sadness or depression to look at videos that are glamourizing suicide and used as chinese propaganda like we've seen with deep seek. it won't give you anything negative about communist china. in the end of the book seven things you can do. one is talk to your friends and family and especially kids and educate them about the threat china poses every day. it is not a distant or remote threat. they infiltrated our society and governments down to the local level and you can help educate your kids why tiktok is a serious threat to their mental well-being or to their futures. not just like any other platform. you can teach them they should think about china whenever they are going to the ballot box if they turned 18 not just for congress and president but for

governors and state legislatures as well. pray for the chinese people. they are the worst and first victims of chinese communism going back a century. >> dana: i like the book and i have it here with me and appreciate you coming on the show. it was an eye opener to say the least. thank you so much. >> thank you, dana. >> in washington there is a new sheriff in town. under donald trump's leadership we may disagree with your views but we will fight to defend your right to offer it in the public square agree or disagree. >> this was a stunner. vice president vance with a wake-up call for u.s. allies in europe warning them against things like censorship and new laws that many americans will find shocking. 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.

>> the threat i worry the most about vis-a-vis europe is not russia, not china, not any other external actor. what i worry about is the threat from within, the retreat of europe from some of its most fundamental valuesment values shared with the united states of america. >> that's jd vance international stage. first time in the job with tough talk for leaders in europe and

getting backup from marco rubio. >> he was standing in a country where free speech was used to conduct a genocide and met with the head of a political party that has far right views. and some historic ties to extreme groups. the context of that was changing the tone of it. and you know that. >> i have to disagree with you. no, i have to disagree with you. the genocide was conducted by an authoritarian nazi regime that happened to be genocidal because they hated jews, minorities and they had a list of people they hated by primarily the news. there was no free speech in nazi germany and no opposition. the only party that governed the country. that's not an accurate reflection of history.

>> bill: you have that. miranda devine. that was in the morning. this was in the evening last night on 60 minutes with a law in germanly that might catch a lot of americans by surprise. >> it is illegal to display nazi symbolism, that's clear. is it a crime to insult somebody in public? >> yes, it is. >> it is a crime to insult them online as well? >> yes. >> the fine could be even higher if you insult someone in the internet. >> why? >> because in internet it stays there. if we're talking face-to-face you insult me i insult you, finished. if you are on the internet if i insult you or politician. >> bill: kind of went like that. miranda, this is how the u.s. media is interpreting vance's trip. vance brings a wrecking ball

turns on european allies in blistering speech. a lot going on here but overall a reflection of the direction that europe is going. what do you think about all that? >> yes, sure is. if vance's words were not apt you have to look at those three musketeers on 60 minutes talking about crushing dissent and crushing free speech and criminalizing it. margaret brennan was dead wrong and marco rubio was there schooling her on the history. in fact, it was the lack of free speech. the attempt to crush free speech that led to the rise of the nazi party, censorship that made what the nazis were saying seem like forbidden fruit and then, of course, when the nazis got into power, they completely

eliminated all dissent. they took over all the media, j there was a propaganda min is tier and all that people heard. margaret brennan had it wrong and jd vance had it exactly right. i think sure, his speech was a scorcher but it was a well overdue message to europe that the dark forces, the dark veil of censorship is descending on their continent and america cannot ally with people who do not share our fundamental values about free speech. it is a very dangerous time and instead of repudiating him and telling him as some of the german ministers did that his words were not acceptable, they should, you know, take to heart the message from america, which is i think the last free land left on earth.

>> bill: go back to vance on friday. roll this clip. call for two. >> if you are running in fear of your own voters, there is nothing america can do for you. nor for that matter is there anything that you can do for the american people who elected me and elected president trump. >> bill: it is a very simple message. he brought examples in that speech. i have to go, but he is saying don't fear your own people. >> don't fear your own people and don't expect that you are going to be allying with america if you travel down this path. >> bill: we'll see where it goes. it will develop into quite a debate. good to see you. let's get to this now. roll it.

[booing] >> dana: you are layering canadian fans booing "the star spangled banner" before the game on saturday night. team usa won 3-one. the game got off to an interesting start. the coach spent parts of 22 seasons in the nhl. as i said this game livened up our dinner party saturday night. everybody was really into it. >> it's good to hear. it livened up a lot of dinner parties. it was a great atmosphere and great game. the three guys that got into the fights early on really set the tone for us and yeah, it was an

unbelievable game. >> bill: three fights in nine seconds, right, bill? you could put that on a t-shirt right now. from what i am reading. i was not in the arena. i want you to describe it based on your experience. the boos were so loud you couldn't hear the anthem. so was there bad blood prior? was it the booing of the anthem or does it have something to do with the politics of the day between our two countries? >> a little bit of everything. canada/u.s. is a huge rivalry in hockey. i think there was a little bit of a political flair to it. it is the time we're in. then i think our guys used that as inspiration. if you let it get the better of you, you are in trouble. i do think the players used it as inspiration. >> dana: your counterpart is john cooper from canada. the coach there. the game is in a better place because last night's game existed. you can say whatever you want about fighting but it was what ignited the game. both teams flexed and nobody

backed down. a hockey game broke out and it was fantastic. a dumb question here. why the fighting at the very beginning? i understand if somebody hits you or something. but at the very beginning, why does that help set the tone? >> you know what? it just does. look, it shows everybody that we mean business and we're not backing down and, you know, look, both teams stood up and i agree with coop. the game is better off because of that game. i have to be honest, that might have been the highest level of hockey ever played with both teams, both of those lineups with superstars, future hall of famers, and it had everything. the fights were just, you know, the thing that started it off. the level of play was absolutely incredible and both teams put it all out there and that's good for our game. >> bill: some of these checks into the boards phenomenal.

really just focused play. bill, what year were you born? >> 1970. >> okay. you were ten, right, when you probably had the greatest hockey moment in the history of team usa. now you go into a game thursday night for the finals. personally i think donald trump should be there. but that's his call, right? you go to daytona, you have to go to this thing. a chance that usa and canada can play twice in one week? >> yeah, there definitely is. there are two games today, one at 1:00, canada plays finland and we play sweden at 8:00 and decide who will play in the championship game. we would love it if president trump was in attendance. we have a roomful of proud american players and coaches and staff and listen, we're trying to represent our country the best way we can. >> dana: bill, great to have

you. one of these days we'll get together and explain to you why the only reason i'm sitting here at this seat and have this job is because i went to a hockey game in 1995. i'll explain all of that at some point to you. thanks for being here. >> i would love to hear the story. thanks for having me on. >> bill: good luck on thursday. we'll be watching for sure. won't miss it. thank you, bill. >> dana: what a great guy. before we go, a judge with a unique consequence for those caught stealing sentencing shoplifters to roll up their sleeves and wash cars for free in the store's parking lot. what do you think about that? >> good idea actually, right? get the cameras out there and get a clean car. >> dana: you hope no rain in the forecast. >> bill: in the winter you have to wash your car. >> dana: i'll see you on "the five" in a little bit. a great week, everyone. harris faulkner is up next. >> harris: we begin with a fox news alert and taking a look at
