oh, with bill biden, they're doing nothing. the problem is the documents that donald trump had. he was authorized to have because as president, he held the ultimate executive authority to declassify those documents which he claim city did. joe biden, his vice president, had no such authority. no such standing. he was in the same position as you were me . he, he had no right to have access to those that classified information. and moreover, to take it out of the building. i mean he was, he had his security clearances, he could see it, but he had no right to possess it. and then they've been in storage for secures these documents when they were 1st packed up. it was not a mistake. i'm sure. i don't know if you have a messy desk in your office, but where you got lots of papers stashed around is scoop them all up and stuff them in a box. that's not what we're talking about here. these documents were deliberately and consciously taken from the white house back when joe biden was vice president, because they had some value to him. and the value i maintain is it had something to do wit

bill: that was a year and a half ago. turns out it wasn't true. no apology since. president biden homeland security secretary falsely accused border agents of whipping migrants in the summer of 2021. emails are coming to life that show the border patrol chief was furious over how the white house handled the bogus controversy. cross-country host lawrence jones is here. good morning. i have one of these things going around at the time is that the government is looking for a clarification as to whether or not we're going to investigate. the sooner we can tell them that investigation has been launched the better it looks for them. that's what was going on in the emails. >> behind the scenes they were also saying there was no evidence of wrongdoing at the time. look, you watched blue bloods, frank reagan. when it comes to -- i do a lot of crime reporting. i have a lot of sources in law enforcement. these positions are political appointments. if you want to be a successful commissioner and chief you have to have the frank reagan approach. you have the respect of the rank and file while

the biden administration and congress passed major laws like the upper structure bill, which biden will about today, like the inflation reduction act which has an extraordinaramount of fundi for greenhouse gas emissions, like the chip and science act for manufacturing. all of those have to be implement it. so it is not one to be about legislative action. the house can't even figure out who to run it. but it can be a time of real governing change if these laws get implement it. if there are it in ways that have corporate interest or not is critical. after e passage of the dodd-frank law, lobbyists said this was halftime and in the second half they would go to the various regulatory and try to mold the rules that have to be written out of that law to their particular interest. and we are going to see that again. it is critical to cover this aspect of the story, the second half, to shed some light on the fact of what these lobbyists and corporate interests are doing to try to mold these various laws and whether or not they're going to meet the full potential that the biden administration w

you can equally argue, that the $1.9 trillion bill that the biden administration passed on a strictlyty line basis ignited inflation. but that is water under the bridge. what is going insolvent is medicare in four years, social security in 11 years. if we address that, it will be something positive. i think that would satisfy hawks on the debt limit, the administration would show they're being wise physical stewards. that is all the american people are asking. elizabeth: why is fiscal stewards? nearly 360 approximately dollars in pandemic aid stolen. we're talking federal workers including ts at, dhs, irs state workers stole pandemic money. over the next decade to your point about entitlements, it seems staggering that social security, medicare, medicaid, va benefits, defense spending, interest payments that will take up 75% of all federal spending. >> yes. and so, by the way i'm willing to concede all the points you made but if the administration wants something face saving let's just look forward. we've got to make sure that social security and medicare are solvent. that it is there

finally, this bill tries to attack the biden administration use of the s.p.r.o.o lower gas prices here where it's been somewhat effective and made money for the united states treasury. let's legislate seriously to lower oil and natural gas prices for the american consumer. instead of simply insisting if american sproa oil goes to china, an american oil company has to be the middle man and makes money out of it. joip the gentleman from new jersey reserves. the gentlelady from washington. mrs. rodgers: the language is very clear. if you look at subsection 2, such petroleum products will not be exported to the people's republic of china. pleased to yield 45 seconds to the gentleman from florida, mr. bilirakis. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from florida is recognized. mr. bilirakis: congratulations on your chairmanship. i look forward to working with you. i rise, mr. speaker, as this legislation in support of this legislation. it's high time to stop the biden administration from continuing to provide china with oil reserves from the strategic petroleum reser

bill. president biden wants to point to very specific concrete examples that will benefit americans like thel tunnel that will be built under the hudson river that will alleviate the traffic burden here. the president is going to be giving out hundreds of millions of dollars that he will point out leads to tens of thousands of jobs. one of the big fights that will be happening in washington this year is over the debt ceiling. we heard from the president a few moments ago on the south lawn ahead of the meeting with kevin mccarthy setting up that budget fight. he wants republicans to come to the table with specific examples of what they're willing to cut before he talks about negotiations. >> the white house is also saying they'll end the national emergency related to the pandemic? >> reporter: yes, it was announced quietly last night. the president will end various public health emergencies that were declared three years ago. covid is not over. we're still losing hundreds of americans a day due to the virus. what it means for ordinary americans, depending on what kind of insurance you have, m

house starting to interview and look at what the biden administration has done in their policies and maybe their illegal policies in the past two years. billdent trump is the only one that announced, nikki haley might throw her name in the ring. how are you feeling about the 2024 race right now if it's essentially going to be a biden versus trump rematch? >> i feel great about it. i would donate money and volunteer on donald trump's campaign if that would help him run against joe biden because i think joe biden will beat him just like he did the last time because he has list of accomplishments to run on. he can literal i will go downtown to town and say i helped do this and did that and a lot of ribbon cutting from the infrastructure bill and he can stand in front of school, hospital and say i helped make this better for you. donald trump i think as we have seen is just going to be airing grievances. i feel pretty confident about this. bill: ashley, democrats say they want to run against trump because biden beat him in 2020. is president trump the best chance republicans have or are you hoping somebody else jumps into the ring like desanti

through the courts questioning the validity of this exact rule, the biden administration continues to enforce this mandate. today's bill does what the biden administration will not. it ends the onerous mandate imimposed by the federal government agency on the american people. it provides important autonomy to health care workers and critical relief to hospitals and other facilities who continue to face staff shortages. my democratic colleagues will say that this mandate was worth it. that repealing it will hurt health care workers or patients they serve. i haven't seen any data to suggest that. what we do know is 95% of americans have either been vaccinated or had covid-19. we know the vaccine no longer totally prevents transmission of covid-19. c.m.s.'s vaccine mandate won't end with the public health emergency on may 11 or sooner if the previous bill we just debated goes into law. it will go on indefinitely unless the administration rescinds it or congress takes action. given that the administration threatened to veto this legislation, it doesn't seem like they plan to reverse course so congress must step in. we're n

biden's pledge. we actually had an amendment when that bill was going through to say the new i.r.s. agents couldn't go after people making less than $400,000, to hold president biden's to his pledge. you know every democrat voted against that amendment. so those i.r.s. agents would be set up to go after hardworking families across this country. frankly, what we need is more border patrol agents securing america's border, not i.r.s. agents going after hardworking families in america. and so we passed that bill. and we're going to pass more good bills this week. you are going to see us today set up the select committee on china to finally confront the challenge that's one of the greatest threats to our nation and that's what the chinese communist party has been doing all around the globe making challenges to our country and other countries around the world. we're going to set up that church committee to look at some of these federal agencies that are weaponizing government to go after families across this country based on their political views. that's not what government should be doin

joe biden signed the omnibus bill on december 30th.daily treasury statement. anybody can look them up on the internet. they're readily available. so the national debt limit is $31 trillion. on december 30th, it's a little more than that. december 30th, when joe biden signed the legislation, the national debt subject to the limit was $32.347 trillion. we had already effectively hit the debt limit when joe biden signed the omnibus bill decembe. today, the latest treasury report shows the debt subject to the limit is 31, 342. so some days are better than others. the actual debt subject to the limit is less today than when joe biden signed the piece of legislation on december 30th. again, that's according to the daily treasury statements. so if you want to look at the gamesmanship being played here, if she had been honest she would have been sending letters in december saying we hit the debt limit. debt subject to the limit was higher on the day joe biden signed the piece of legislation than it is today. the people who made the decisions o

bill. the biden administration asked for -- you to think that with republicans talking about how importantwould have gotten along with that but they came back with about half of that. they are really short changing the order. i would appeal to them, perhaps, as christians or however you want to do it. i remember when jill biden traveled. she crossed the border to feed migrants christmas dinner. there are things that can bring folks together. maybe there is some appeal to republicans on those grounds that will result in that. to your economic point,, the biden ministration has gun such a good job -- we have regained all of the jobs that we lost in the pandemic and lost another -- for us to remain competitive, the statistics show that we had about three unhappily more immigrant workers. maybe that will help with our republican friends. >> brandon, the governor of texas, greg abbott, gave us this, what we believe to be as a copy of a letter. i have it here. he gave it to president biden when he landed on air force one. a lists 14 bullet points of what the state of texas has done related to im

that they are receiving a lot of federal funding through the bipartisan infrastructure bill signed by president biden. san jose recently found out it would receive roughly $11 million in funding to upgrade its facilities, add more restaurants and basically make travel better in the bay area region. kristen: because of the recent atmospheric rivers i started to think about whether additional improvements might need to be made to our airports to be able to handle that. for example, drain any flooding more quickly, or if you start to get different kinds of wind shear or wind directions, do we need to consider configuring our runways a certain way? is that part of the dis climate related airport changes? liz: i definitely imagine so. a lot of bay area airports are not equipped to handle the extreme weather events we are seeing, just like you mentioned. one of our editors was trying to travel the other day and found that san francisco does not have natural defrosting abilities for its planes, so it takes a while for a lot of its airplanes to fly off when it gets too cold or there's too much ice on the run

on thursday, president biden renewed his call for congress to pass a policing bill and president bidens not only the senate that filibuster that standing in the way, we also have a republican controlled house. where does that leave things? >> no. where they are not going to go anywhere at this point, rev. it is a republican house with one agenda, to go after joe biden and conduct investigations. they have no interest in governing. but what is important, i also thing to take into mind when we start looking at how progress gets made, i am florida how quickly these officers were fired, and then charged. and that was not anything to do with washington. that form of temporary justice, i will call, that until the trial, that's happened because of the elected officials and the police commissioner on the ground. >> yeah, that police. chief >> that police chief, and the da. everyone was doing everything, and the other big takeaway there for me was, >> it showed us that all of this, we need months to investigate, will never go for that. again >> she also said something interesting in the intervi

talk about biden and saudi arabia now. >> president biden: there is little social re deeming value in the present government in saudi arabia. >> billthat was joe biden on the campaign trail. as president he sings a different tune. they are ending talk of retaliation against saudi arabia for cutting oil production and human rights abuses. "washington post" calling him out today saying he vowed to punish saudis over oil cut. that's no longer the plan. the anchor of mornings with maria, maria bartiromo is with us in studio. hello. a bit of an about face? >> no surprise it's an about face. the country needs oil production. we've been going to saudis and venezuelans with hat in hand trying to get more oil production. we aren't seeing any permitting loosened up so america can go back to the position of being energy independent. yeah, no surprise. we have to get oil from the saudis. >> dana: will we get it? that's the other thing. >> they'll sell it to anybody who will buy it. i'm not questioning whether or not we'll get it. what i am questioning is why it is we're against american drillers when, in fact, he wants to do business with thes

> energy secretary jennifer granholm is pushing back against a new bipartisan draft bill that limits president biden'sserve that's the supply that helped shield americans from international supply crises. this bill would result in more oil supply shortages in times of crisis in times of crisis and president biden withdrew 220 million barrels from the spr in 2022 in an earth to lower gas prices. leaving the reserve at a 39-year low. >> the united states government is going to purchase oil to refill the strategic petroleum reserve. when prices fall to $70 a barrel. >> today that price is still a long way off with one key benchmark wti trading at $79 a barrel. the energy department is now backtracking on the biden team plan to purchase 3 million barrels in the month of february, citing still high prices. doe will only select bid at a price that is a good deal for taxpayers in week the president is criticizing a bill that would make it much harder to release oil until the spr is replenished. >> house republicans introduced another bill on the strategic petroleum reserve. blocking action that would help lo

biden was busy building bridges literally. on wednesday, the president traveled to kentucky to celebrate last year's bipartisan infrastructure. lot more than one billion dollars in funding from that billgo to words repairs to repair the great spence bridge. biden stood alongside senate minority leader mitch mcconnell, creating a stark split screen between what was happening there and the chaos back in washington. and the bridge serves as a symbol of what can happen to republicans and democrats put aside their differences to work together for the good of the american people. i know that sounds crazy at times. it is something we expect to see very little of, in fact, in the 118 congress. in exchange for the gavel, mccarthy made a series of concessions to his party's far-right rebels, including allowing any member to call for a motion to vacate the speaker's chair at anytime. no doubt forecasting more chaos in the years ahead. mccarthy also promised members of the free right freedom caucus key assignments. the far-right faction will be more emboldened by out for, as one republican -- told the new york times, quote, the concession means he will be the minority of a minority of the minorit

but first, republicans are voting on a bill to restrict president biden's control over the release and our nation's emergency oil supply. joining me right now is texas congressman and member of the house energy committee, dan crenshaw. congressman, it's great to see you. thanks so much for being here. critics say biden tapped that spr as an election stunt to bring down gasoline prices right before the midterm elections, and now we're sitting at historic lows. you're trying to prevent that from happening again. tell the us about it. >> right. well, the spr act that was passed, it does a very simple hinge that shouldn't be controversial. it says if you're going to take out of the spr, you've got to have a plan to replenish it, a plan to actually lease federal land for drilling, you've got to have a plan for production so that we can refill it. this should not be controversial. the democrats are acting like this is the craziest thing ever. they're the extremists. is -- the spr is meant for emergencies and, by the way, has a minimalfect on gas prices. -- minimal effect. he's wrong about se
