ari fleischer, you trained enough politicians.se three reasons, why do you want to run for this? the guy doesn't past the basic fundamentals and no one in the media cares. what is your take on him? >> well, this is what bothers me so much. a president about to turn 79 and questions should be raised about his mental health. you watch him in a speech in the news conference today. he can be sharp. no question about it. he can go back and forth with reporters and give lucid answers. but when he gets things wrong too. there should be a scrutiny. the press should cover it. the mainstream media has seen fit to give him a total pass. they don't hold him to account when he makes up lies about himself. they just chuckle. they move on to the next pro-biden story they write. why do they have to protect and cover from him instead of draw attention to his frailties the way they would any other president? >> the idea of joe biden coming out and saying what do you want if he is building back better and everything is great again. he blames everyth

ari fleischer, welcome. >> thank you, howard.e thing that reporters love to cover as you know is the legislative sausage making but an area that has gotten extraordinarily little media scrutiny president biden proposing to spend $6 trillion on a vast a ray of programs and no one in the press seems to care about the exploding deficit and debt. why do they not care about that. >> they not only care, reporters tell people that don't worry about the debt and deficits because interest rates are low. i have seen many reporters tell people on cnn the deficit don't matter any longer. both parties walked away from a commitment to deficit reduction. howie: precisely. >> picking up that reflection, not banging them over it but the other thing, howard, that they're doing, many in the press are switching words. no longer calling it spending. they're calling it investments which is joe jobe's joe biden's word. they're parroting him. it is all spending but they're calling it investments. howie: consensus of the pundits who are never wrong, repu

let's bring in our panel, ari fleischer, dr. mac siegel, shannon bream anchor of "fox news at night" and andy mccarthy, fox news contributor. dr. siegel, i have to go to you first. what do you make of the new steps? >> well, i think that the goal is to get more people to take the vaccine. but it seeming more like the stick than the carrot. there's not enough flexibility to the idea that, you know, maybe people that got over covid have anti-bodies. maybe after one shot somebody had a side effect. maybe somebody is afraid of vaccines and needs to be talked to. so the mandate aspect of it is -- i don't think legally there's a problem with the emergency use authorization. people feel like there's a problem. so there's that issue. i definitely think federal employees should be vaccinated before the president starts ordering the rest of the country what to do. but i think the thing that they've done wrong from the beginning and they continue to do wrong is they're constantly sounding condescending and bullyish and shaming people. the

place where the enemy is willing to continue to kill us write out the door, reporters then, as ari fleischer put it last hour, finally getting their voice and asking about what's important. kayleigh? >> kayleigh: that was a good substantive round of questions. we don't often get that from the white house press corps. i can tell you this, president trump wanted questions like that. good substantive questions on issues that matter to the american people. he rarely got that. biden complained about it, he lashed out at the reporters. you could tell he didn't have the capacity, it seemed, to answer the questions. he's the commander in chief. joey mentioned our troops don't get a day off. well, guess what? as commander in chief doesn't, either. it didn't matter the holiday with president trump. easter, memorial day, i would get calls constantly through the day. you don't get the luxury of a holiday weekend when you are commander in chief. maybe biden does, maybe he naps and kamala takes over, or jill, i'm not sure. that was such an unacceptable answer. i will answer about afghanistan after the hol

unions over parents which is presenting a huge problem for the democrats be joining me now is ari fleischer house packets secretary, and mark meadows, former trump white house chief of staff. mark, the hill is noting that biden's biggest vulnerability is not any single issue, it's the risk that he could be seeing losing control of events which i thought was a pretty good inside. at that is supposed to bring all this common unity. >> well, it is good inside. i can tell you that what the american people are saying as you mentioned is the fact that joe biden is not take control of anything other than trying to control the narrative and end he is not even doing well at that. he has picked the wrong side. he has picked teachers unions. you pointed this out. he picked teachers unions over teachers and parents and i can tell you that is a losing proposition. but where did they go from here? we continue to see chaos on the border, chaos in the classroom, and chaos in our businesses. and yes, somehow, this is joe biden that is going to come up with all the answers. it is not a promising look forward

fox news contributor ari fleischer joins us now. what you think about that?ding at the podium, you know very welcome and she was asked about the delta variant, the fears of it, how that's affecting the economy, they say we don't really see an impact on the economy. i will add in yet because we just don't know if there is any further planned shutdowns. what's next. >> big sweeping problems like this can hurt the country into two ways. one is just the people, if america turns into a more pessimistic nation where people say oh my gosh, i threw it and now everything is getting worse all over again, that has a dramatic affect on people's lives and people therefore they're outlooks, politicians particularly incumbents in the white house, because it affects people's mood. the second issue is does it affect people's economy and tha is directly tied to whether or not businesses start to shut down again weather people stay home again, and the more i talk is scary talk, and the more masks get reissued, the more people start to think i shouldn't be out mixing with others

leslie marshall democratic strategist and former white house press secretary ari fleischer.'s worth taking a step back and thinking about what's been accomplished in the last year. operation warp speed was an amazing success. a manhattan project level success where you had this big task, getting the vaccine developed. making sure there were enough doses, figuring out a distribution plan and instrumenting that plan by the time president biden took office we were doing a million doses a day. this was amazing achievement. i talked to people in operation warp speed and they think biden has done a good job of putting it forth. it is free country. people have been able to take the vaccine since may. if they don't want to take it, you can try and persuade them. anyone who wants it can take it. i think it's time that the biden administration really focused on moving past this global pandemic, reopening the economy, and understanding that we have had great success with there vaccination project. >> mike: among the concerns right now variant let's play this clip. >> we're certainly se

ainsley: ari fleischer talked about how this has backfired. >> it was team biden who did refer to trumpony with amy coney barrett as a super spreader event. they are willing to say that when the super spread something done by another party as opposed to rising up and saying covid is covid. it doesn't matter what party you are or who you are. as for the texas legislature, it's hard to imagine, bret, a bigger self-designed failure. i mean, they fled their jobs, they left their workplace, they came to washington to alarm people for a cause and it's all backfired. and gotten them sick. and they are not going to be able to get out their message anymore. when they go back to texas they will get arrested. so, if you wanted to design an event that failed, this is how you do it. brian: a disaster. and they accomplished absolutely nothing. steve: it's completely backfired and because they have all been exposed to the covid, they can't go home. they got to self-isolate. they are hold up in their hotel. brian: do you know how much this is going to cost beto o'rourke. is he writing a check from supe
