what will kill a huge number of people, but the biden administration does not, they are moving in the other direction at high speed and doing everything possible to put the west on the brink destruction the washington post, citing sources in the white house, claims that the biden administration has been flooding moscow with some

the biden administration needs to be more aggressive. to ensure that america has the resources it needs to bring prices down and have supply and demand the each other. host: (202) 748-8000 for democrats, (202) 748-8001 for republicans, (202) 748-8002 for independents you can text us at (202) 748-8003. taking a look at green energy in those ways of going forward, what do you think of the money that will be devoted and is there some benefit from that money being spent? guest: what the bill does is it floods the renewable market with money. it causes some problems because what is key with energy solutions is that you have to have technologies that are economically sustainable which means you can't continue to flood taxpayer dollars into energy technologies to subsidize that into affordability because that is not sustainable. you have to have economically sustainable technologies that are also environmentally sustainable. i think that legislation artificially props up the affordability to where you can't continue subsidizing it. over 40 year

we have been enduring and suffering since the biden administration has been in power . we have communities across the country being heavily impacted in a negative way and governors have been left on their own to respond. the federal government has failed to secure our sovereign international border with mexico and the mexican side of that border is 100% controlled by criminal cartels who traffic human beings and drugs, so the biden administration has essentially by policy and failure to enforce existing laws waived these illegals in here in america has suffered because of it. the narrative is reflective of that. governors have to make decisions to stabilize their own sovereign state. they are doing that. host: if the idea is to get the border more secure, what you think these actions do toward that specifically? guest: the actions of the governors? governors do not have authority to deport these illegal aliens back to their own country. i am sure they wish they did. the menu are speaking of our constitutionalist conservative republican men so they are transporting these

that's because the policies of the democrats in congress and the biden administration include blocking energy production on federal lands, and that's curtailing supply. our vast supply of taxpayer-owned oil, gas, and coal resources on federal lands are a national strategic asset. yet president biden and his, quote, keep it in the ground, end quote, allies treat our energy reserves as a liability. recent analysis by "the wall street journal" shows that the biden administration leased only 130,000 acres for new oil and gas production in the first 19 months of its administration. let me repeat that number. the biden administration has only leased 130,000 acres for new oil and gas production in its first 19 months. for comparison, president reagan leased 47.6 million acres during the same time period. biden administration in just under two years, 130,000 acres leased. ry began administration -- reagan administration 47.6 million acres leased during the same amount of time. that's the point. we need to take the handcuffs of our producers if we're going to produce more energy here at home. a

said, american institutional visitors can't own shares of stock that are black listed, biden administrationan own them. you talked about. the china initiative to clampdown on their theft of our technology to advance their military, that started you were the trump administration, and biden administration ended that. thin you have the issue of general tariffs on solar panels, biden administration is walking away from those tariffs. and the stunning thing, all of these small steps, there is not one thing that the oe. administration received. >> this push by the biden administration and his fanatic, no growth, green new deal climate change stuff, this is killing our energy industry, no one has fossil fuel like we have. who does it empower, at of level? the communist chinese, where do solar panels come from, the batteries need material that can only be found in china and china allies, you take our fossil fuels off the table. we're not a super power any longer, we're wishing for air, you know praying to the air gods and sun gods and praying to wind gods whatever else. without real blueprint for r

have we heard from the biden administration? guest: we have heard from the press secretary who has condemned these actions. they have focused on the way this has become a political move. republicans are trying to paint the biden administration on immigration and using these people as political pods. i did report that there was a meeting on immigration. a cabinet level meeting on immigration last week. these happen regularly but one of those agenda items was to look into litigation options for this issues. it is unclear what that may look like or what became of that meeting. it is something i tracking very closely. this is something the administration sees and needs to respond to. host: this deals with immigration policy. there have been reports of what is happening at the border. can you give us a sense on what is happening to those who want to come in? guest: the border numbers are setting a record number of border officials and those crossing the border between illegal ports of entry. that number passed 2 million and there hav

if there was a moment for the biden administration to shut down this whole thing down, and force a negotiated peace, which they could do in an instant, that moment is right now, before huge numbers of people die, but that's not what the biden administration is doing. they're moving in the other direction at high speed, doing all they can to bring the west

of the post, he quoted the word leadership again, emphasizing that he did not consider the biden administration. he also said to quote a russian-ukrainian disaster. should never was to happen and would not have happened. be president on trump's proposal until neither russia nor ukraine nor the administration has answered, the united states another important thing in the continuation of the stories about erdogan's theses. he said that, of course, a nuclear war will not end in anything good for this world and is ready to offer putin to fix himself in ukraine where he is now

we are not hearing anything from the biden administration now. it's infuriating.let you go. we appreciate it. >> todd: busy week. >> carley: finally done. let's do the weekend. "fox & friends" starts right now. >> the border closed? >> it's open. >> biden administration ready to take legal action against republican gorchesz for sending illegal immigrants. >> better to go to a sanctuary jurisdiction who will help facilitate them. >> outside of harris' home. >> it's open because we enter. >> inflation remains high but that's not stopping the white house from giving itself another pat on the back. high costs arereally, um, reallg families which is why we have done the work we have done. >> thousands continue to line up to see the queen

omar: certainly, the biden administration would like it to be closed. united states is trying to assist israel in covering up this crime. shireen was murdered, she was murdered, she was not just killed. it was a targeted killing. israel was trying to avoid responsibility entirely by initially blaming palestinian government. it was only in the face of overwhelming evidence that they were forced to admit that they might have had something to do with it. the biden administration's response is a moral failure, failure to protect american citizens. israel''s military presence is itself a crime. the occupations purpose is to steal land. it entails a great deal of violence and crimes against humanity. a journalist was killed as no surprise. looking at the funding that the u.s. gives israel every year, in essence the united states is complicit. the biden administration's attempt to cover that up and move on like it is nothing is something that will not be judged kindly by history. folly: some american lawmakers have been trying to put pressure on the biden admi

and that is who the biden administration wants to help. so it shouldn't have been a surprise and i have talked about this on the house floor last week that the biden administration was fighting our own 9/11 victims, trying to keep them from getting reimbursement from the terrorists. so what happens? the last thing, here we come, running in here, oh, oh, oh, we don't want the 9/11 families too mad at us, let's take $3 billion that american taxpayers have paid and give that to the 9/11 victims instead of the $3.5 billion that belongs to the taliban, we're told, by this administration. well, i think most americans, if they knew that this had gone on would say, this is crazy. you actually want to give the people responsible for killing 3,000 americans $3.5 billion so that you can take taxpayer money from americans and give that for the damages that the terrorists did? that makes no sense. but it does explain why the last bill for the next month and a half was $3 billion of taxpayers' money that the biden administration wants to use instead of

what does the biden administration do to not repeat the mistakes that the obama administration made backreen protests when president obama at the time basically stayed silent and some think if he came out and was more forceful, it could have led potentially to an overthrow of the mullahs? >> yeah, absolutely. you're asking the best question, eric. and the truth is during this time, during this week when these rain iranian -- iranian protesters bravely came out to tell us their story, the biden administration invited the president who is nicknamed the butcher of tehran for all the blood he has on his hands, invited him to come to the united states. they offered him a visa and all of his cronies to come on u.s. soil. they have threatened to assassinate u.s. leaders. they are brutally murdering their own, and now the iranian people are telling their story. and the mainstream media -- and i thank you, eric, for bringing attention to this, but the mainstream media is pretty much silent on all of this. the death toll, i will say, is exponentially larger. it is going on in more than 15 cities,

to accuse texas of not caring is a little crazy given what we've had to deal with since the biden administrationrted inviting people to come to our state by the thousands everyday. jon: he talks about leaders who advocated their moral duty, is joe biden among those leaders? >> i've never heard a democratic mayor criticized joe biden even though he's the one inviting people to come here, millions of these people coming every year and it's overwhelming my state and these governors of other states and mayors, i've never heard them make a single criticism of the biden administration even though they are directly responsible for this humanitarian crisis. jon: let's look at the numbers just from the el paso sector. august 2022, 29000 -- 703 migrant encounters in el paso sector, it's up 48% from 2021. how do you continue to support this onslaught of immigration? >> it's getting worse, numbers continue to grow. different cities will break at different times, it puts a tremendous strain on our state on the entire country eventually. i don't know the whole thing breaks down to chaos but we are headed ther

the biden administration seems to want it. if you look at the policies in place when trump was here, we had this under control. we were making progress in the right direction and the idea of building a wall and using title 42 and stopping the catch and release and the remain in mexico program, those were all working. the biden administration has dismantled federal law and doing their own thing and they know the consequences and they still invite the cartels to bring as many people here as possible. >> harris: again, that statement from governor abbott certainly doesn't suggest he is going to stop any of what you just talked about including the busing and now arizona is doing it and now with flights desantis is doing it. i appreciate the time from both of you and i know the mighty battle that you are waging both legally because you are part of that as attorneys general as they start to arrest some of these people now and not just hand them over to the interior of the country through border patrol. i appreciate your time. thank

like turning the light switch on, it will take some time. >> carley: so she says that the biden administrationng a broken system that the trump administration created. what is your reaction to that? >> it is interesting, carley, the democrats, the liberals, they have been basically telling these people for decades what they're going to do for them. and absolutely they have failed the hispanics and the blacks, trump's administration came in and did more for these people than a number of the past democratic presidents combined. >> carley: von box, thank you for joining us this morning, we appreciate it. >> yes, ma'am, thank y'all. >> carley: absolutely. all right, house speaker nancy pelosi is in trouble, don't take it from us, senate majority leader chuck schumer is telling top democrats they should not expect to keep control of the house and that is not all he had to say. >> todd: ashley strohmier has details on the concerns. >> ashley: despite nancy pelosi's public optimism, senator chuck schumer is singing a different song. chuck schumer told democrats if the election were held today, there

but the biden administration adamantly opposed the settlement. n's advisors didn't just want the russians to leave ukraine. that's what they told us they wanted on television. no, biden's advisors want a together regime change war against russia, apparently to avenge the election of donald trump, which they believed putin was responsible for, and willing to fight the last ukrainian to get it. on april 9th this year, the white house dispatched borisance to kyiv. he communicated two messages. the first is that putin is a war criminal, pressured, not negotiated with. and the second is that even if ukraine is ready to sign some agreements on guarantees with putin, the west is not. in other words, who cares what the ukrainians want. america and the uk demand total war with russia, regime change war with russia. of course the ukrainians caught in the middle had no choice but to concede. days later the peace negotiations fell apart. this was virtually unreported at the time, but it was the turning point in the war in ukraine. this was the moment where th

mike pompeo calling out biden administration stance to the communist nation saying it is time for the team to recognize reality. china wants to underminus, they have not changed. >> carley: interesting story there. thank you. florida democratic gubernatorial candidate charlie crist taking a swipe at governor ron desantis comparing him to the devil at a recent event saying we have a divider on the other side and the uniter over here, you know some people call him de-satan, have you heard that? i'm trying to be nice. de-satan added that? the choice is crystal clear, he's bad, we're good. charlie crist stopped short of calling himself to the messiah, he compared himself to zelenskyy, saying you see the color, the blue and yellow, does that remind you of any country? we're fighting for freedom, too. tomi lahren will react to this story in the next hour. >> todd: he refers to himself the igniter and calls desantis de-satan. think about that, i'm uniter issue but wait, he satan, the anti-christ. can you smell the unity? i can. more good news for lee zeldin, third democrat abandoning governo

believe that biden needed to continue the policies set by the trump administration which led to such an abrupt and, frankly, disastrous withdrawal? >> no. and to insinuate that president biden had absolutely no alternative but to honor the doha agreement, which was a terrible agreement, frankly, is preposterous and extremely disingenuous. so, he's the president of the united states, and he showed, across his administration, an ability and a willingness to unwind a host of policies that president trump had adopted. the fact of the matter is, the biden administration continued the trump policies, and they own those policies. they had the ability to renegotiate with the taliban. they had the ability to change troop levels if they felt that was needed, they had the ability to do a whole host of things. but joe biden and president trump are aligned on afghanistan. they were aligned in their policies. and i wish the president would just own that. >> you've said that you were in favor of maintaining some troop presence in afghanistan. would maintaining 2,500 troops there have made the diffe

of something like that , we don't know for sure, but we can tell you that the biden administration's closest allies are sure of exactly what they did. it's every action creates counteraction equivalent and directed in the opposite direction . this does not mean that the war will immediately become nuclear, but it can be assumed that the consequences will be, if we really blew up the nord stream, then why don't the russians climb into the internet cable, to make it happen by not doing this, to make it happen, if the banks in london would have no connection with the banks in new york. let us take at least one of these consequences. i am i will not speculate about the consequences for our grid. let's look at just one. this is that banks do not have communication with each other for only one day. what will be the economic effect? we will descend into chaos. here, then it will become a real collapse. we will very quickly find ourselves at the level of the third world countries, the stakes are approximately the genius behind all this, like victoria nuland took into account the possible con

house republicans have officially put the biden administration on notice. since the beginning of this congress, house republicans have sent more than 500 requests for information and documents. republicans are united in our effort to conduct oversight and hold the biden white house accountable for its incompetence at home and abroad. since president biden took office, democrats have turned a blind eye and completely abandoned oversight. one nonpartisan group even gave democrats on the oversight committee and f under republican leadership, , congress will fulfill its constitutional duty to conduct oversight, rooting out waste fraud abuse and mismanagement in the federal government are at the top of our agenda when -- agenda. when backed by the many tools that come with the gavel. the american people will finally get some answers they deserve. americans can count on republicans to deliver government efficiency and effectiveness. americans can count on republicans to protect their taxpayer dollars and americans can count on republicans to hold the by administra

that's when the biden administration shares forward.ou if you make up with your enemies somehow, you do not need to be as engaged. and in the process the fact that you alienate your strategic allies is not that important. you decide with your strategic allies the desperate you and has been desperate to make up with iran you know they refused to speak to the u.s. by the way. all these, negotiations the iranians choose to speak directly for the americans. u.s. needs to accept and take. writer temp. the chinese see the u.s. and see the obama view of the middle east. and they see opportunity. they have good relations with both the iranians and the saudi's. i think would much rather be closer to these saudi's in the iranians for they are much more important strategically. for all kinds of reasons. and they are telling the saudi's whatever you what we will do. we will be helpful to you. we are lucky in the u.s. to very american centered very american educated. the saudi leadership wants to be on good terms with america. would prefer to be allies with america. but all of us many or most of

but what is the biden administration have to say now that they can't ignore this crisis. >> were committed to fixing the immigration system instead of working on solutions republicans are playing politics with human beings using them as props, what they are doing is simply wrong it's un-american, it's reckless. >> the democrats are playing politics with human lives, this is cruel what they're doing, during the crisis of the southern border and pretended the innocent americans haven't been suffering from this from years, writing off their concerns because they don't vote for democrats. jorge ventura is from the daily column and following the story from every angle. jorge what are you seeing down there in my home state of texas? >> we are seeing the reality of the border crisis in downtown el paso i want to give you a look for the audience, the local shelters have been overrun to the point where venezuela are being forced to sleep on the streets as they await their buses to new york and we interviewed a couple of mothers from venezuela telling us they have kids sleeping on the streets for a

the biden administration, keeps talking about democracy, i am longing for that moment, when the biden administration finally, defines dmoek i don't know what they are talking about fodder or conspiracy theories extreme views, people in this country, that might be controlling what we think what we do, so on. jackie: a great point, i think going to be a big topic of conversation it was pre-covid then sort of fell by way sided focus attention coming back on it john todd, stay right here next hour of "mornings with maria" starts right now. . . >> good morning, everybody. i'm jackie deangelis for maria bartiromo, friday, september 2, your top stories at 8:00 a.m. eastern time. president biden, attacking maga republicans again in a fiery speech, claiming equality and democracy are under assault, more on the president's midterm message to americans, after promising to unite. >> futures down bouncing around you've got some upside on dow one point indicated higher obviously, all as market waiting to look ahead to, that jobs' report 30 minutes' time economists expecting 300,000 nonfarm pay role

instead, what they have done is repeatedly demanded for something that the biden administration is notapable of delivering. that's how a senior administration official described it. now, of course, this comes as president biden is meeting on friday with the wife of brittney griner, sherrell griner, and the sister of paul whelen. they have both pressing the white house for this meeting with president biden for quite some time. it is significant that he is meeting with them, but the white house is not indicating if there is any major break through that he will present to these families. kylie atwood, cnn, the state department. >>> sigh of relief for u.s. consumers. a rail strike that would have been disastrous for the u.s. economy has been avoided. a tentative agreement was reached thursday hours before the strike was set to begin. u.s. president joe biden whose administration praised the deal here. >> this agreement allows us to continue to rebuild a better america with our economy that truly works for working people and their families. today is a win and i mean this sincerely, a win fo

they found emails proving that the biden administration decided who should be censored.ouse official said that metashould take down a tony fauci account. a facebook employee agreed to without even looking. this is an attack on your civil rights and it's happening in public. no one is saying anything about. this attorney general is. thanks for doing this. we -- have we misstated what you found? >> no, this the first time anybody has a chance to look under the hood. the communication between the biden administration and the big tech partners in censorship to violate the first amendment. the best way to look at this is two buckets. what do we know from the documents already provideed? at least 45 officials have been identified as communicating with big tech and twitter to take things down. they this weekly censorship meetings. they established a verified flagging status for government officials to censor. you had a senior official on facebook communicating with the surgeon general of the united states. we did that and what else can we do? they outsourced censorship. the sec

crime is becoming a major midterm problem for democrats and the biden administration is struggling to defend its record. >> does president biden think america's big cities are safe? >> it is not a yes-or-no question. >> todd: except that it is, we are talking with tomi lahren on tomi tuesday. don't go anywhere. >> tomi: /* the tenth pick is in the new all-american club. that's a “club” i want to join! let's hear from simone. chuck, that's a club i want to join! i literally just said that. i like her better than you the new subway series. what's your pick? >> carley: civilians are reporting for duty with the new orleans police department, which is now hiring civilians to help after crime spiked 78% last year. a new orleans attorney joined us this morning. >> i would not want a civilian to decide collection of evidence required a warrant or how to protect it to protect the chain of custody in preservation of evidence so you could present it in trial when it goes to trial. we have random people off the street collecting the evidence, who knows how they will be trained, that or somebody c

even in the biden administration, there is only one person that understands energy. veryone else around president biden doesn't seem to understand how the global energy market works and the role the saudi's have in opec. it has been a real focus on domestic issues and allowing domestic debate to influence foreign policy in ways that have been -- dr. doran: let me take a position that is unusual for me. i am going to defend joe biden for a moment as an intellectual exercise if nothing else. if i were him and heard what you just said, i can say the following you know, burning, when i went to saudi arabia yeah , i had to eat a lot of crow. because, i came in and took position saying i was going to turn the country -- i'm going to turn away from fossil fuel to a net zero future. i have encountered reality. i aligned my of progressives in the u.s. i adopted a fully progressive foreign policy. then, i realized that was not going to work. i went to saudi arabia. yes, i did not get that much tangible from the saudi's but i opened up a window, not controlled by the progressive

>> if is failure of the biden administration, that if they had kept the trump era policy, we wouldn'te in this mess. this mess happening at the border and the border off florida is biden administration, they are the problem, they caused it and trying to shift blame somewhere else. >> carley: they are, democrats and biden administration trying to reclaim the moral high ground over border policy. here is what democrats are saying about the border and where they are placing blame, watch this. >> what republican governors are doing is political, they are using people, using desperate people trying to come here because they are fleeing communism themselves as political pawn. >> it is unimaginable what the governor of texas has done. >> it manufactured crisis by ambush. >> this is regrettable. >> carley: what is missing from their argument, these illegal immigrants signed waivers before getting on the buses. where is the compassion for the southern border? >> exactly. this is just the height of hypocrisy, the biden administration is causing this entire problem, millions of people are crossi

deaths at the southern border have surged under the biden administration, undoubtedly because of administration lacks immigration policies and obvious lack of concern about securing the border have encouraged individuals to attempt to come here illegally. according to department of homeland security numbers that have been reported, 748 migrants have died at our southern border so far this fiscal year. that's a lot of lives lost, mr. president. a lot of lives. mr. president, one illegal immigrant speaking to a news outlet this month said of the border, and i quote, it's open, not closed. the border is open. everybody believes that the border is open. it's open because we enter. we come in free. no problem. end quote. that is the message that president biden's immigration policies have conveyed. and the longer that he continues with his de facto open border policies, the more individuals are going to be encouraged to attempt the dangerous journey across our southern border. mr. president, the massive spending package, the so-called inflation reduction act the democrats shoved through the senate l

that has to fall on biden administration. >> and on the previous administration. the migrant crisis in venezuela started under the previous ed a main administration and ma dushgs ro, maduro is a horrible communist dictator. it's you know what, if i were joe biden today, i'd say, governor abbott, governor desantis, let's all sit down, call a big conference, call a big summit and sit down and actually talk about what we can do to solve the problem. and quit treating people as political pawns. i think that's the right political response as well. >> so marc, congressman tony gonzales is a republican from the border region, part of his district is el paso, he's concerned about the border crisis, but he also doesn't like this strategy that we're seeing from governor abbott. here's what he told the hill. we have to be careful about turning politics into policy and that's what i see, it's so close to the midterms and it's just dangerous. do you feel comfortable with this idea of -- i mean, you used to work for someone that lived in the vice president's residence, dropping

you have to ask, could the biden administration really do something like this? we can say for sure, we don't know for sure. we can tell you that close allies of the biden lighthouse believe they certainly did do it. sikorsky is a politician, chairman of the parliament, husband of van appelbaum of the atlantic magazine. he's got a picture if he and biden together in the twitter profile. you respond immediately. thank you usa. so once again, to the biden administration really do this push markets hard to believe. given that it's an atrocity, it is effectively an act of terrorism, we don't want to make that accusation. but we should tell you that, maybe not on coincidentally, a pipeline was announced. this is called the baltic pipe, inaugurated in poland. it'll carry natural gas from norway to denmark and poland and other countries nearby. it has less competition and also do well. making sense? what is the white house say about this? how are they accounted for what happened today? they're not excessively in enthusiastically denying responsibility. they're looking at

want to call in on these polling numbers from nbc and others showing rising numbers for the biden administrationnd president biden. (202)-748-8000 for democrats, (202)-748-8001 for republicans, (202)-748-8002 for independents. text us at (202)-748-8003 and post on facebook and twitter. that cbs interview the president talking about a variety of things. one of the topics he engaged was the inflation rate. [video clip] >> last tuesday, the annual inflation rate came in a .3%. -- 8.3%. the stock market nosedived. people are shocked by their grocery bills. what can you do better? >> inflation rate month-to-month is up an inch. >> you are not arguing 8.3% is good news? >> no. it was 8.2% before. you make it sound like all of a sudden -- >> it is the highest inflation rate in 40 years. >> i got that. we are in a position where for the last several months it has not spiked and it is basically even. in the meantime, we created jobs and prices have gone up and down for energy. we created 10 million new jobs since we came to office. we are in a situation where the unemployment rate is 3.7%, the lowest in

administration is doing. >> right. well, this is a critical moment i think for biden's policy toward iran and i'm not sure that the bidenhas a good sense of how to handle this situation and it's in a real dilemma. on the one hand, if it identifies very closely with iranian protesters, there's very little likelihood that a deal on the jcpoa is going to come through. on the other hand, if it does make a deal with this iranian regime on this nuclear program, it's going to be seen as essentially indulging a regime that is repressing this protest movement and that movement is likely to intensify over time. there's a great deal of unhappiness among the iranian people over the the t theocratc regime and it's likely the regime will crack down brutally. i think the biden administration is they a i did re--- in a dilt now. maria: there was a woman who was murdered because she wouldn't wear the head scarf the way the leadership wanted. she died in prison because of the head scarf issue. last week, christiana manpour was supposed to have an interview with the president of iran. they wanted her to wear a head scarf. she said she wou

host: as far as the biden administrations immigration.: the instability in south america and also latin america that is supposed to be the heart of the migration pattern. that comes into our policies, as they look into assist that administration is taking affirmative steps to ensure that everyone can have the opportunity because asylum-seekers are told make your case and stick your claim. they are actually trying to have emma grayson -- immigration surfaces at a certain level which is not realistic. the drug issue we have in our country is not an immigration issue. a grading it -- equating it to immigration needs to stop immediately. host: eric, new york, democrat line. go ahead, you are on. caller: i tend to agree, you vote democrat i vote democrat i tend to agree with this entities because i remember december 2020 or 2019 at least trump got the immigration down to a 40 year low. why didn't the biden administration just continue those policies? although i can see joe biden saying yes come on in and he backtracks on that. i will thank you

the political stunts are being pulled by the biden administration.ect our states. it is not just border states as we can see. people are moved around by the biden administration every day secretly. all illegally. and i have never heard a complaint from a mayor. i have never heard a complaint from any democratic politician decrying what damage is being done to our state and even some of these migrants who are dying along the way. i have never heard a single complaint. >> brian: let's bring in former attorney general of florida pam bondi. pam, kidnapping charges for governor desantis, it looks like gavin newsom with no legal degree comes out and says this is what should be done. is governor desantis worried? , no. i can't imagine any governor in our country is worried who is busing out illegal immigrants, brian. and if you think about it, gavin newsom, the crime rate is skyrocketing in california. he should be worried about the crime, the legitimate crime in california. not florida and texas and all the border states trying to protect our own citizens.

and the biden administration is facing criticism from d.c.'r who said when it comes to the republican governors, she is upset with them for bringing the migrants here, but also the federal response is lacking. she wants more help from fema. shannon: for people to say we need help from the feds to get something done. but not all the americans think they are doing well. the president's job performance on immigration, he has 32% approval, but 60% disapproval. >> i think one of the reasons we see those numbers is the border is not just about numbers and date crunchers. -- and data trenchers. the story provides a visual narrative. we've saw recently karine jean-pierre say to peter doocy that people don't just walk across the southern border. and this week we got a very visual reminder from the justice department about how people are getting here. there was a human smuggling scheme. there were migrants stuffed in suitcases within empties out water tankers and being piled up on flatbed trucks before being driven across. there was a visual reminder of

last time i looked, the biden administration was in charge, it was a democratic administration in chargehow on earth is it republicans' fault? >> listen, i don't think this is a democrat -- i think this is a politicians' problem, right? this is not -- and both parties, a pox on everybody's highs here. -- house here. if you look at some of the footage i've seen from our own bill melugin, folks are scaling donald trump's wall, so that's not a solution. and with that being said, the biden administration has pushed both to find the root cause, and we're still trying to figure out what that root cause is. we have to have a trouble-edged -- double-edged approach here. legislators need to deal with the problem happening in northern triangle countries and, two, how we secure the border and, three and most importantly, how we modernize our system, a process that is faster, that is quicker, that has more immigration judges so you don't have a process where folks are risking life and limb or they're being smuggled across the united states' border, and then governors and mayors are dealing with a pr

what's the biden administration's track record on that so far? cory: the critics are right, because it doesn't. affordability is like a coin. it has two sides. you have the borrowers who are trying to afford college and this plan helps them considerably. on the other side is the cost of college, and this plan does absolute nothing to lower the cost of college or to lower college's price tags. i will say that is something that is much more difficult to do. i'm not sure how the president could possibly do that through executive authority the way he has done this. that is something that is likely going to require an all-in effort from congress. ali: [00:09:17]cory turner, correspondent with npr's education team, thank you so much for your time. cory: you're welcome. geoff: the fda and cdc signed off this week on updated covid-19 vaccines to boost protection and limit the anticipated seasonal search this fall, an important turning point in the fight against covid. joining us to talk about that and more is dr. peter hotez , the codirector of the cente

biden took office. we just had the worst 12 months for both food inflation, and electricity since the fallout from the carter administration. president biden and our democratic colleagues chose to celebrate, celebrate this awful inflation report with a so-called inflation reduction party yesterday at the white house. while the dow jones plummeted over a thousand points while the s&p 500 lost more than 4% of its value in one day, while american families can't afford, gas, groceries or electricity, washington democrats partied on the white house lawn to celebrate their policies. that's what happened yesterday. this is what democrats do. while our economy crumbles. they subsidize luxury electric cars, they make plumbers and retailer workers eat the graduate school debt of doctors and lawyers, and then they throw a party for themselves on the white house lawn. now, on an entirely different matter, when you combine the border crisis and the violent crime crisis, law and order ranks as the people's number two priority, second only to the inflation crisis. while democrats' economic policies have waged war on working family's fina

they are calling ron desantis document trafficker for doing what the biden administration has been doingund this country mostly in the past in the middle of the night to be dropped off, you would be forgiven if you didn't know this but most fox news viewers do, others do not, to be dropped off in new york or wherever else the biden administration decided, was a human trafficking when done by president biden? >> was checking whether they were told where they were going, do you think every location they were dropped off in those legals were told this is where you are going? print out a map, tell them you're going to martha's vineyard and it is an amazing way to be critical of this from the beginning, unsure if it would be effective. it has proved to be what needs to happen. >> i will apologize to governor abbott. i called a stunt, i was wrong, this is effective, this is the only effective way of bringing -- are border is the deadliest border crossing zone in the world, it is the deadliest in the world, this is an embarrassment, they don't want to come to the border, this is a good way of s

the biden administration is cutting enforcbudget on detention.'ve made of immigration policy, is just staggering. >> okay. want to turn to what's going on in trump world because there's plenty of legal activity there. andy, let me start with you on this. a slew of subpoenas suggesting there's still plenty of active investigations going on. what say you? >> it's clear that they're ramping up investigative activity. they're looking at what they call the fake electors scheme. they're looking at tampering with the actual election equipment. there's a number of grand jury subpoenas that have gone to people who were in president trump's main circle. i think the immediate problem, at least from former president trump's perspective, is the investigation of mar a lago and the seizures there. at this point that's the one that's ramping up with a bullet. >> yeah. judge can non, who has denied the doj's request to be able to use some of these documents that they want to absent going through first vetting of the special master that's been appointed. she said
