that only goes to midmonth, so those numbers could go up by the time we see the next jobs report. either way, over the last two weeks or so republican lawmakers have been putting more pressure on the white house to tread carefully. the president telling his cabinet on thursday each agency could be more precise about where to cut, as opposed to mass layoffs or just eliminating people based on start dates. trump says he wants updates every two weeks about where things stand. he also posted it's very important that we cut levels down to where they should be, but also important to keep the best and most productive people. elon musk, who is spearheading the efforts, but a lot of time on capitol hill this weak walking republicans through what he's accomplished and what is next. getting feedback. democrats are increasingly attacking musket directly, a taxcutting personal amid efforts to reshape the department of education. >> mr. musk, who is worth some $400 billion, and his fellow billionaires do not have to worry about the quality of

public education because they send their kids and grandchildren to fancy private schools rev act there are areas where cuts are more controversial, even for republicans. g.o.p. lawmakers are concerned with the proposed mass layoffs at the department of veterans affairs. they fear the change could force more veterans out of work, and delay care for others. we are hearing from trump's b.a. secretary who insists care will not suffer. >> there's many people completing about the changes we are making at the va. most of them are really saying let's just keep doing the same thing the va has always done. not going to happen. >> we are expected to see more protests as lawmakers had back home, but democrats are also taking their outrage over doge to texas. senator elizabeth warren getting ready to hold a rally at the state capitol in austin. data? >> dana: what if there will be singing here i will be paying attention. thank you mark mertens. >> bill: bring in former speaker of the house kevin mccarthy. how are you kick serve? beckham in california. they could for your time today. you heard that number, the other

employment number. 10,000 federal jobs filed front and unemployment. maybe a suggested that some are taking perhaps the leave of absence with the early retirement. regardless, senator kennedy says you want to make this tough, he have to deal with congress and a few law. watch. >> we need to pounce on this concept of precision like a ninja. that just means you introduce a bill to take the spending cuts found by mr. musk, and to have congress take the money back. just takes some majority vote. we don't have to wait until mr. musk is through with his work, we can do it piecemeal. we need to start only immediately. >> bill: you know this stuff and set out. is he right about that? if you want to make it lasting? >> he's 100% right. the largest rescissions we ever got what i was speaker, we pulled that money back from covid that we appropriated and covid was over. this is a smart thing to do

because you also don't need 60 votes in the senate. i will make this prediction. if they put that on the floor, those money that president trump talked about, the usaid and others, democrats would be shameful. they will end up voting for it as well. that would lock it into law, and really make these savings secure going forward. >> dana: to think congress got enough direction from president trump the other night on where they need to go? there is a lot on his plate, and he needs congress to get a lot done. there's a small margins. but they've showed a little bit of ability to get things done with reconciliation vote. >> they have. i got to give a lot of credit to that. a lot of credit to the speaker and the chairman of ways and means jason smith. he literally just pushed that making sure it had one big bill all the way through. the real message of that night was, what disarray the democrats are in. they are leaderless right now.

from schumer and hakim, they can't make a decision. you watched that video they put out, they don't know what message to go for. they don't know what direction they are going in. this is where president trump does so well. he has eliminated the democrats on their messaging. they don't know what to say, and he continues every single day. if you think of these accomplishments. this week we had the state of the union, you watch what he's done with doge. watch what he did with the border. the most powerful line was you didn't need new legislation. joe biden and harris told us that for the last four years, they had to have legislation. you just needed a new president. >> bill: i that video you've referred to, we've got that. the one on tiktok? go ahead and roll this, guys. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪

say kamala harris. she might have been offended by that. but she also said this. she is going to stay in the fight per political, you are there in california. she is keeping, at least the rumors alive that she might run for governor of california. your thoughts on that? >> well, you one thing i see is the big civil war in california right now, gavin newsom. gavin newsom is trying to repave it himself and now standing up to saying women shouldn't play in men's sports ackle because we stood so strong. there's a big civil war in california, the governor is in a big place with his own leadership. they are upset with him now that he took the right position after all of these years. i don't really know what kamala will do. i know she is down in la, she's got tremendous fires and mismanagement. i don't think she's the right approach. i think republicans would snatch the governorship if she becomes the democrat nominee.

witnesses. there's going to be argument over that. if things go to plan, this is supposed to go to trial in september. >> dana: here is president trump yesterday when peter doocy was asking him some questions. >> reporter: it has been seven months. why do you think we don't know more about the guy who shot you in the air? >> president trump: i want to find the answers. in fact today i told them -- we can no longer blame biden for that one. he should have released that a long time ago. >> any reason the biden team would've held that back? >> as far as the routh situation is concerned, it is an ongoing investigation in the case. anything they would've revealed with respect to routh would be prejudicial potentially. that makes sense. as far as the other shooter, would be shooter, assassin, in butler, that one makes me scratch my head a bit in the sense that that is over. he is no longer alive. i'm surprised the fbi hasn't released information,

considering how close that person got to almost taking out the future president of the united states. >> dana: one of the things in this report that struck for me was that routh had 17 cell phones. that is super suspicious. >> super weird. >> dana: this is all speculation because we haven't heard from them. the question is, are you acting alone? maybe this guy had some serious problems and serious issues, but he was wrong. will he find out more about the evidence today? >> no because this is just a scheduling conference. it is a perfunctory, here's what the next six to nine months will look at. that's why the argument is you are not revealing what you're supposed to reveal, the back-and-forth and why that's relevant. say the judges sides with -- the defense counsel or prosecution, that could potentially delay things. as far as cell phones are concerned, i've always felt that was strange. here's the thing, crazy people do crazy things. clearly this person is a troubled individual. the fact he had over 100 run-ins with law enforcement previously and the like.

american workers as well, tighter auto rules. on this one here, a little example. what trump did not want to happen is that you cannot as a carmaker make the car entirely in mexico and then sell it to us. same thing for canada. what he wanted to do was split the baby a little bit here. powdered aluminum is the example we are using, sent from tennessee up to pennsylvania, where it's turned into rods. the canadian is shaped and polished in canada. that's just the beginning. because then it is shipped down to mexico and the rods are sent for assembly into pistons, whereafter the u.s. tariff paid at the border and the pistons become part of the engine in michigan. i don't know, maybe we could do this better, steve? i know you are not a fan of tariffs, but here's how the president defended it with maria yesterday. >> reporter: why did you rollback are put a pause into

some of the tariffs until april second? >> president trump: because i wanted to help mexico and canada to a certain extent. we are a big country, and they do a lot of their business with us. whereas in our case it is much less significant. i gave them a little bit of a break for the short period. >> bill: in your view, how long is it going to take to solve this riddle? >> well, bill, i've always been a fan of ronald reagan's vision which was that u.s.-canada and mexico would be one large free-trade zone. i think that makes a lot of sense. i am not a big fan of tariffs on canada and mexico. what i am very much in favor of is going after our enemy, canada and mexico are not our enemy. china is. let's get really tough with china. we know they are an adversary, and enemy, they cheat, they steal, they are involved in predatory trade practices. bill, i would like to see the

tariffs really aimed at china, and not so much canada and mexico. we need -- canada and mexico are our two most and ported allies in the world. i don't want to pick a fight with them right now. >> bill: beijing, their congress ministry to the united states. look at your own house. those in the united states who abuse fentanyl. they said don't blame us, or shift the blame to places like china. that was their positioning. a lot of members in the administration this week have been coming on tv and saying canada hasn't done a good enough job of cracking down on the fentanyl trade from that country. we will see. now the jobs. >> 10,000 fewer federal jobs, doge really starting to get going. how did you see it? this number did not meet the expectation. >> it was a decent number, but i thought the best thing in that report, bill, was finally, finally, finally after four years of the biggest government hiring spree in history,

the course. he's pushing all of the right buttons, but be patient because it could take a long time given the big hole joe biden doug osun. >> bill: on that point, the white house just put out a statement. in one month the president has got ahead and helped the manufacturing industry, creating 9000 new auto jobs, and on articles. simple question here, what the president said the other night is that we have to accept there will be temporary pain. are we ready for that? >> look, if we are good have temporary pain from some tariffs, what we need to do, and i hope the president is watching because i know he is watching this show all the time. mr. president, and congress, at the tax bill done. we need this. i want to make sure people understand. if we don't get this thing done by january first, we are looking at the biggest tax increase in american history. congress, do your job. get that bill on donald trump's desk by memorial day. once that happens, you will see a big economy.

hadn't passed a bill. watch here. this is what they said. >> the toughest, most efficient, most effective border security bill this country has ever seen. >> democrats want they're back foot on immigration. now we are on our front foot. >> the president has been very clear, we need that bipartisan border security bill. >> by any objective measure, it is strong, tough and realistic. >> i will bring back the bipartisan border security bill that he killed, and i will sign it into law. [cheering and applause] >> dana: a bill from congress might be welcome, but you have shown in one month you are able to shut down the border. >> because we have a strong president. president trump did it in three weeks what joe biden didn't do in four years. that bipartisan border bill, i respect the senator, he walked through that bill with me. i asked to support and i said no. i'm not okay with four or 5000 illegal immigrants crossing the border being normal. got it want that in statute.

i'm not okay with a bill that doesn't address sex trafficking of women and children. right now, you look at what president trump did, we went from an average and the highs of ten to 11,000 per day under biden to 200. 11,000 to 200. 1800 per day average under joe biden, do you know what i saw the other day? 41. 180241. we want that number at zero. look at that stride president trump made in three weeks. joe biden could've done. >> bill: there is some news broken last night about the deportation of migrant families. this is the number under the biden years for the apprehended family units, as they call them. to .6 million. what he is saying is that the families of already had their cases heard, they've been ordered to be removed or you are going into the interior of the country to find them. how many are in that number thus far, and what is your target? >> i don't have a number, but i

will say this. president trump has committed to prioritize public safety through national zeqiri. that's what we will do. have also said if you're in the country illegally you are not off the table. as far as families, other terminal illegal aliens, they can come to the border and claim asylum. they could demand to see a judge. they could demand dew process. we gave that to them. the end of the due process, immigration judge and says you must go home, those orders need to be executed. because if we don't, we sent a message to the whole world continuing entering this country is a crime. go to court a go to court, get removed until leave, and we aren't going to come find you and remove you? you're never going to fix the issue. the bottom line is if we don't execute those orders, might as well shutdown immigration court action until the system and take it off the board because there's no consequences to the law. it is sad, it is emotional, it is controversial, it is something we must do to secure the border and save lives. when we send the message, regardless of who you are, when you have to go home under a judge's order, that means less

people come, which means less women get assaulted, less children die crossing the border, less americans die from fentanyl, less women and children get sex trafficked. secure borders saves lives. if you can secure the border unless you have consequences for violating that border. >> dana: you have a tough and important job and we appreciate you joining us this morning. thank you. >> bill: thank you, sir. breaking news. the spacex mega rocket starship exploding during the eighth test flight. it was heading off the east coast of florida towards the bahamas. it sent debris across the sky, pronk and ground stops for commercial airliners in florida for a time. live in cape canaveral, florida. the liftoff was successful, the reusable rocket was caught back on earth. what happened next, jonathan? >> reporter: hi there, bill. the faa is requiring spacex to conduct a mishap investigation to determine that. to determine exactly what went wrong last night.
