here to discuss the federalist cofounder fox news contributor ben domenech, welcome back, ben. with you, kennedy. and you know what, you look at the situation and once again we see a situation where the stakeholders involved are all people who are conflicted by their own political interests, shored up by the teachers unions in their own states. so the national governors association of course, they do not particular have a reason to care about teachers unions prato weights, that is the most important lobbying entity in most states. what we are seeing here is another situation where america is falling behind the rest of the western world because we have these incredible powerful, incredibly political teachers unions that do not care about the education of children. they actually only care about extracting money from the taxpayer. and exercising power when comes to their impact on government for the upshot of all of this is that we are about too go through an experience where we learned for the first time what it really looks like when people are completely denied for more than a

i'm ben domenech and this is the american crisis. me now, "new york post" columnist miranda devine. thanks so much for taking the time to join me tonight. >> thanks, what a stirring editorial and you know, in some ways it's quite reassuring to know and remember how bad the '70s were and to know that the country came through it and prospered. i think, you know, the radicals of those days where the baby boomers who came to power. they trashed the moral capital that they were bequeathed by previous generations. they tore down the institutions. we are reaping, you know, what they sowed, but i do have faith in america to regenerate itself as it has done before and it will be up to a new greatest generation, the sort of children and young adults who have sacrificed through the pandemic. it's up to them now, they will be able to -- i have faith in them -- to rebuild the institutions, to replenish the moral capital. these young people who they know adversity, they've suffered through divorce and social dysfunction. they are strong and they,

author of the book madam speaker and ben domenech plush everywhere of the federalist.to kind of let her caucus speak its mind on this foreign policy issue. but, the biden administration seems to be trying to tip toe through all of that. >> i think president biden had hoped to be as little engaged in this as possible. he certainly hasn't been as outspoken as some even in his own party had hoped he would be. got a little farther forward today in his conversation with netanyahu. of course, democrats are divided on the issue of the conflict between israelis and palestinians and there are significant number on the progressive side who thinks the united states should do much more to protect palestinians even at the cost of pressuring our long-time ally israel. it is a difficult situation for the president. and it's one that i think pelosi is well aware of because she has all these different voices in other own caucus. >> bret: ben, republicans obviously are jumping on this saying that there is a hamas caucus within the democratic party. >> it is not a difficult situation for

steve: so there's bernie sanders an independent, here is ben domenech, he is a fox news contributor goodagreement on something they could get behind, but at $2 trillion, republicans are only going to get behind infrastructure that's actual infrastructure. >> [laughter] it's a total hand waving approach to bipartisanship, which is really all that we can expect at this point from the biden administration. they haven't been interested in including republicans in any of their prior negotiations, they basically said here is what we want, and if you want to have a debate about how we pay for it that's fine, and that's basically the extent of the white house bipartisanship agenda. in this sense, i think that they are going to run a couple of risks though, because infrastructure, unlike some of their prior legislative efforts is not really something that you can argue as being attempted in order to satisfy the needs of the pandemic or swage ms. iowa unfortunate difficults that have come from it and there have been proposals in the past on infrastructure that actually were attempts along the line

i apologize. " fox news contributor ben domenech is here, with reaction, good morning to you, ben. >>f the things that is going on here is that you have a governor who has been so viciferous in chiding her people, in undercutting them, in bringing them down and going after them in so many different respects and yet, when you look at this , you know, situation, you have someone who has repeatedly violated her own orders, or stretched them in different ways. you saw the whole experience with her husband going, wanting to go out on a boat and cite ling, you know, do you know who i am, earlier and that's what we've seen from all of these politicians through this whole process where they are unwilling to grant grace or forgiveness or understand humans who are going to make mistakes or violate rules in different respects. instead they go after them hammer and tongs and yet want a different standard for themselves. steve: sure this latest instance where she broke her own rules there were about a dozen people. the rules are six people or fewer at tables, they put three or four tables together

howie: joining ben domenech and in north liz claman. ou make of liz cheney having gotten clobbered by her party and using media to launch crusade of donald trump and the media's role here. >> it's interesting because there was support for liz cheney a couple of months ago in the wake of her voting for impeachment. criticizing former president trump saying a lot of the same things that she was saying so what changed? what changed that people became of a mind within her conference, a conference that had backed her just, you know, a few months ago that she was no longer capable of being a member of leadership of the party. the name is the house of representatives and it does represent and i think at that point where she was representing the wishes to have people that elected her and voted overwhelmingly for donald trump and her state is a very valid one. i think in this context. the media is really making a mountain out of something that is going to not be considered a very significant political event ultimately. if liz cheney had done her

former tennessee congressman ceo of empowerment and inclusion capital and ben domenech, plush everywhereom the fallout of all of. this this is anniversary as well of another event which is 60 years ago john f. kennedy addressing a joint session of congress and calling to put a man on the moon and safely return him within the next decade. that was something that required american unity. it required to us work together and try to achieve something that seemed impossible at the time. i think unfortunately, when we reflect on this past year, it's a reflection on how you had a moment of american unity around the george floyd incident that could have led to something good but it didn't. instead it led to more division, it led to riotness. in these violent protests that played out across the country saw many cities affected by rape, arson and violent crime do nothing to credit or serve the interest of police reform or pay tribute at all to george floyd or his tragic death. this to me is a real missed opportunity. a missed year of a moment in which we might have seen some progress toward needed

let's bring in our panel ben domenech publisher of the federalist.olitical correspondent of "national public radio." morgan we should caveat obviously you were part of the trump administration back in those days at the end when the coronavirus origins were a big part of this. as you see this develop, what's your perspective? >> so the last few days of the administration we were working on releasing the document that everyone saw publicly and there was a very intense declassification effort to make sure that we could get this information out. it's important to note that nothing we released wasn't anything different than what mike pompeo and others had been saying for a year which there was no smoking gun on any particular theory but that we all had a lot of skepticism about whatever the chinese communist party's first excuses or whatever their first theory is of the case. the chinese communist party at every turn has stopped independent investigations. in fact, when you look beyond the united states, when you look at australia, they dared last year to

ben domenech, katie pavlich and jonathan swan political reporter for axios. jonathan, you broke this story about the pipeline, nord stream 2 and the sanctions being laid out. rich laid it out at the top of the show. the importance of this and what it means. >> well, it's hugely important. it's vladimir putin basically maintaining strategic leverage in europe. it's a direct pipeline between russia and germany. it cuts out ukraine completely harming the ukrainians and they are very worried about this. and really what this decision, which their plan amounts to is the united states deciding that it's more important to keep the germans happy and to preserve that relationship with germany than it is to do everything in their power to stop the completion of this pipeline. and it also raises a really bizarre situation. this is going to be laid out in a report that they have mandated to keep the every 90 days. we will see a situation where the biden administration says okay, and correspondent laid this out we are sanctioning you know, a handful of russian ships but we

ceo of power plant inclusion capital and morgan ortagus and ben domenech.bret. where all of these different political theater elements are coming together where they are clashing with the experience of the average american person. one of the reasons i think that you saw the ratings for instance for the nfl draft first round for the kentucky derby be as good as they were compared to joe biden's speech is that one of them looked like a post apocalyptic waste land where the congress had been wiped out by something terrible and the flip side was frankly something that approached normalcy which is what people actually want to see and want to experience. when the president is talking about oh, maybe you will be able to go out and have that july 4th party? guess what? people aren't waiting to hear his permission in order to do so. they are going to do so anyway. that's something that i think rereally don't appreciate when it comes to the power of washington. washington really is under the impression that they can dictate all of these things but the reality for the

here to discuss is ben domenech. hey, ben. , good to be with you. ainsley: good morning.ur knowledge of the foundational documents of the greatest country in the history of the world. look, the reality is, that prince harry should are tarred and feathered and sent back to his grandma. he is not someone who appreciates anything that makes america great and i think that in this instance, he once again showed why he should be taking as being just someone who is not taken seriously by anyone in america. here's one of the problems with prince harry. he is part of the institute commission on information that is looking at all of the different disinformation on media today. he is a member of it along with a number of established journalists and people who you ought to respect. if he doesn't even know what the first amendment is, if he thinks it's bonkers, what is he doing participating in a prominent and respected institution that is designed to try to battle disinformation in media? this is the kind of situation that we ought to respect as being one that is absolutely silly, it

here to react is fox news contributor and publisher at the federalist ben domenech.ould you give joe biden so far? >> well, i think when it comes to achieving his policy aims of triangulating between the left and the far left, he's doing a pretty good job, but i think when it comes to delivering on what he actually promised the american people, which was unification, bipartisanship, normalcy, he's got to be considered an f. i mean, the total fail at that. everything he promised during his campaign along those lines has been swept aside, and i mean , its reached a point where the white house wasn't even interested in briefing capitol hill republicans about this latest round of this extreme leftist expenditure of money that we'll be paying off for as long as you, your children, and your grandchildren are alive, and that's something that i think unfortunately puts us in a position where we're just going to have more partisan ship, over everything that actually matter when it comes to policy. instead we're just going to see a lot of money go out the door, a lot of money

ben domenech pointed that out last night when the president talks about are maybe you will be able togoing to do it anyway. don't appreciate when it comes to the power of washington. washington really is under the impression that they can dictate all of these things but the reality for the american people is they are going to live the way that they want. the way according to what they perceive in their communities, and for most people, that is a return to normalcy. steve: and as we return to whatever normalcy is going to look like in the future, it looks as if the supply is outpacing the demand. we are getting to the place where you can -- if you want the shot, you, for the most part, can get it if you are above the age of 16. and they are saying unless we get to that herd immunity where something like 70%, 80% of the country has had the shot, we are never going to see this thing go away. and keep in mind, you know, the antibodies we get from the shot and from having it only last a certain amount of time. eventually if there are variants out there, covid will come back the question is
