covid was a problem.n for mayor. >> covid, my friends, was the greatest threat faced in a generation. it was life and death. it was as serious as it gets and it was as scary as it gets. and new york, we had it first and we had it worst and we were on our own. and no one knew what to do. but what did we do? we came together, we stood tall, we stood strong, and we faced the challenge head on. >> dana: rumors for a while he would throw his hat in the ring. i'm shocked this is what he decided to lead with. >> it is an absolute slap in the face to the nursing home families saying will you bring up covid for your launch statement for mayor after your extreme fall from grace as governor of the state? he is still facing legal challenges for sexual harassment. the book deal and covid families. so if he thinks he can go in there and run for mayor and maybe some of mayor adams legal challenges he thinks could be a way for him to make his entry as mayor, i mean, the legal challenges he is still facing. >> bill: nursi

administration of covid. and so i think that what we're seeing is just a carryover from that.hink that it's even more so than what francesca is saying. >> right. >> that actually getting people ill and letting many people die is a part of the plan of curtis yarvin. who is a guru to vice president vance and also peter thiel, in which they say that there are too many people. >> on the planet. >> and that there needs to be some humane way of reducing the. >> population. >> and that an illness released can be or allowed to run. >> its course. >> can be one of the ways that that sort. >> of humane. >> decrease in population can take place. so what we have to realize is that the fringe thoughts and the fringe parts of society and people who are extremists in every single way now are on the inside, have the keys to everything. and we have released weapons of mass destruction within the entire government. and we are seeing that right now play out in hhs. we spoke about how that's playing out in medicaid, and the destruction is a part of the plan, and we have to accept that. >> yeah, w

and so it went way up under covid. and then what happened was that it became basically the new baseline, and the new baseline that democrats basically stepped up from their spent up from there. and that's where things really started to spin out of control with inflation and the national debt. - but, kevin, you and i both know that before the pandemic, the spending that was coming out of congress with congressional republicans when they had the house and the senate at the beginning of the trump administration was not disciplined. and it did leave many fiscal conservatives with a bitter taste in their mouth. how will we know that it's going to be different this time? - right. well, there's so much to cut and it has to happen, the national debt is so high. there absolutely is gonna be a lot of budget talk next year, regardless of who's in the white house. there's gonna be a debt limit hit in the spring that'll have to be lifted. i think that spending is gonna go down a lot next year and it'll definitely go down a lot if p

we elevated staff that i think before covid was unfortunately largely invisible. didn't hear us talk a lot about custodians and car cleaners prior to covid and then we found them to be some of our most important resources. we have continued to maintain the investment in cleanliness and to keep that staff elevated in the organization since covid and we also have restructured our of our shelter contract so that clear channel has increased by 50% their cleanliness. we're also trying to respond to feedback in real time. one of the things that mayor lurie has emphasized is that when we are a 24 seven city, you know we cannot have 9 to 5 services. and one of the things that he rightly pointed out in our system is that clear channel was not doing shelter cleaning on the weekends. so we have recently restructured again their work so that they are now doing weekend power washing and we are going to start in the coming weeks working with public works to have more weekend shelter trash pickup particularly on venice and market as well as the hospital in the district. we've ma

of marty goddard or where the future of the rape kit what that sort of is looking like in the post-covid maybe just if you could just tell about maybe margot or one of those. yeah. because well, i mean i was doing in the writing a lot of this during covid and so the the kit being basically based in hospitals, you could really see the problem with that because the way that it made it really vulnerable because obviously the ers were shut down and so rape, sexual assault, reporting plummeted because people literally not get to these and also people didn't safe, you know, didn't for obvious want to go to the e.r. so there was you know it's it's normally the there's already a problem of accessibility because you know for a lot of people, if you don't, you would have to drive to an emergency room you might have to wait for eight or more hours and then the exam, if it's right, is supposed to take up to 5 hours. so if you are a person without, a car, a person without with kids, child care, i mean, you can just imagine this is not doable for just so many people. and it so that's been something kn

everyone knew the elderly higher at risk of covid dying from covid get he put them in the same as incomere you look at florida, governor desantis separated them. you go back to november of 2021, why he wasn't getting vaccinated, 1000 fold difference between the old and the young so he doesn't deserve any sort of office for getting so many people killed because of his stupidity but more importantly, he's an idiot. >> not only that, he lied. he lied in his report, lowballed the amount of people who actually died in the nursing homes and congress discovered that. can you believe he even has the goal to run again and face new yorkers? >> absolutely, he's a politician but here's what's funny, what got him out of office were scandals of sexual harassment, he said she said, he's still a free man but this idea, to me that is voters discretion, they have to decide if that matters but the big decision to make as a political leader like how he handled covid, like the personal story of how people died unnecessarily, that to me is what should be disqualifying. what is money, there's this mayor of new

blame it on covid if you're liberal or moderate.en if you're conservative and things that are troublesome in the country are bigger and worse than ever before in 2016, and it's going to take longer to try and fix them and felt also the type of fixes that president trump promised and is bringing, they kind of make you the villain in the moment and hero in the long run. hopefully a year and not ten and it's back to the original analogy and break eggs and shells to scramble eggs. there are these short term opportunities for democrats putting in trouble and going for long term strategy going to put them in the right direction that i voted for. jason: milton freeman going with taxes and going with speaker with a clean cr through the rest of the fiscal year and end of september and that's not flying with the republicans. lisa: i want to get to this as well. president trump is also focussed on turning america into the crypto capital of the world. bitcoin and other currencies soaring after president trump announcing on truth social he'll cr

approved emergency use of covid but not for treatment of covid? >> let me ask my expert in that area. he is managing director of our healthcare work. >> we have not looked into the use of ways for that or vaccines. we have not been asked to do that by congress. >> one thing we have to look at is improve f.d.a. there is trouble all around. i think both sides would agree on that. the report recommended collection of tax pages for oil and gas it improve the fiscal position. could you agree funds generated from tell would help reduce the deficit? >> yes. >> so, revenues from oil an gas? >> no, our finding is it is already being produced and there's in assurance it is collecting the amount it is due. i'm not suggesting they produce more but for what is being produced the royalty payments the interior department systems are in disarray and it is in the cheer they are correcting the revenue due to government. >> the chair recognizing the ranking member for five minutes. >> you have been doing high risk reports to there -- this committee for a long time.

he had the nursing home scandal during covid.but in a lot of ways, you know, trump has rewritten how politicians can rebound. >> that from scandal. yeah, sexual harassment and sexual assault are no longer. disqualifying thing for candidates running for office. well, at least in the republican party it hasn't been. so we will see in the democratic party if it is, um, you know, cuomo has more than that. you mentioned the nursing home scandal during covid, which impacted a lot of a lot of new yorkers. i'm not sure specifically how many new york city residents. um, but he also had the book writing scandal, too, which is part of that that's still in court. and using, um, so he definitely has the most name recognition outside of new york for us. um, in dc. but it's a four month primary. >> yes, it is june primary and we'll see crowded primary, as i said, said he very much seems like the favorite. can he win? we'll see. all right. great discussion guys. that's it for inside politics sunday. you can follow me on exit. you follow the show

it really accelerated during covid here in texas. my estimate is around 40 to 50,000 texans needlessly died because they refused covid vaccines. they were targeted by the same similar anti-vaccine forces, and now it's spilling over to childhood immunizations. and so i think that's a big part of it. but, you know, texas is not alone. maybe they're the tip of the spear of the anti-vaccine movement. but we're seeing this all over the country. so i think this is going to be a big challenge for us in 2025. this will not be our last measles epidemic. it may be our largest, but it won't be our last. and it's not just measles. remember, there's other childhood preventable illnesses such as pertussis or whooping cough. we've had a 5 to 6 fold rise in cases from 2023 to 2024. i'm expecting that to continue to rise. we've had polio detected in the wastewater in new york state in 2022. that's a concern. so i'm worried about this erosion in our whole vaccine ecosystem here in the united states. >> and what happens to doctor hotez for for people w

. >> it was the covid. hunger games. >> the federal government was nowhere to be found. >> we know. >> that today. >> our new york. >> city is. >> in trouble. did i make mistakes? some painfully. definitely. and i believe. >> i learned. >> from them. >> and that i am a better person for. >> it. >> it wasn't too long ago that former new york governor andrew cuomo was in the political wilderness. he resigned in disgrace in 2021 after 11 women accused him of sexual misconduct. but now cuomo sees an opening in the crowded june democratic primary for new york city mayor, where the current mayor, eric adams, has faced accusations that his corruption charges were dropped by the trump justice department in exchange for his help to deport the city's undocumented migrants. my panel is back. so instead, this is a crowded primary. eric adams has his own issues. he denied that there was any sort of quid pro quo with his corruption charges. but can cuomo pull this off? >> absolutely. i mean. >> is he the favorite? >> i w

cuomo rocketed to national attention during the can covid-19 pandemic when his daily briefings became the time. however, he came under intense scrutiny on claims he mishandled lockdowns and dangerously housed sick patients in nursing homes. democrats will pick their candidate for the mayor in june, guys. charlie: thank you, chanley. rachel: do you guys think that sort of i'm coming to terms with what i did, you know, commercial, yes, i did -- made some mistakes, but i'm learning from them and i'm going to be better for that, does that work this time? if. peter: i don't know. i think a guy like him must looked at trump who just had the political comeback and think, well, if he can do it, i can do it. also cuomo -- yes, being the mayor of new york is a down grade from being the governor -- charlie: is it though? if officially, but -- peter: he needs it because otherwise he cannot run for president in 2028. rachel: so this is not just legacy, this is that -- this is a steppingstone, is what you're saying. peter: if not cuomo, who? they have no, they have to no leader. charlie: so is it -

it is so interesting, you didn't really care about all the people who lost their jobs during covid, didssica? >> jessica: i think i did. >> greg: roll the tape of her not caring! [laughter] >> jessica: it doesn't work that well with me, because i do have moments of sanity. the american people understand, whether they agree with the larger premise of getting rid of waste, fraud, and abuse, that isn't what's happening here. they know what the 1990s looked like and what happened when we actually worked with congress over the course of -- can you turn -- >> judge jeanine: that just happened. what are you looking at? >> dana: she's watching "the breakfast club." >> jessica: the 1990s how you do it, not what elon musk is doing. >> greg: judge, you hear from so many people who don't know how businesses work, that you have to make big cuts, and this happens in every company. >> judge jeanine: why didn't they say anything about the 400,000 people who lost their jobs when bill clinton was president? >> jesse: it was the '90s. >> jessica: but they actually went through agency by agency and -- >> j

. >> yorkers that always talk about and remember his leadership during covid.. >> well, that's really the big question here, right, basil? because it's how long are people's memories and how selective might those memories be? do they just want to remember him as the person who shepherded not just new york, but really was a national figure during covid and then also his rapid demise in politically, in the aftermath of those sexual harassment allegations. can you talk about what the reaction has been to seeing him back in the limelight? >> sure. >> i don't. >> like to compare him to rudy giuliani because there's no comparison. but but in this way, in the same way that rudy was america's mayor after 911, andrew cuomo, in some ways was america's governor during covid when, you know, there was. a lot. >> of comparison. >> with how trump handled it versus the sort of steady. leadership of andrew cuomo. >> but. >> you know, let's also remember that there were these sexual harassment allegations. there were concerns about his handling of patients and nursing homes duri

so covid really threw this off because fema did not expect to spend what it spent on covid. at the end of this year, it will have spent while north of $150 billion on covid and one -- what that has done is that it has thrown all the estimates off. it has gone up over time which affects their estimates moving forward and they spend way more than they thought they were going to have to spend on that and that is one of the reasons disaster relief fund is in this constant negative situation. it is supposed to be -- it is going to be $12 billion underwater already at the end of september even after the supplemental appropriation that you are provided late last year. >> not to cut you off but to go down this line that we are talking about, is fema still having to make payments associated with covid-19? >> absolutely, they are still making payments. >> do you have an estimate of how much fema is appropriating out because of covid-19? >> last time i checked, which was at the end of february, they were upwards of $130 billion they had paid out and they expect to spend over $150 billi

coming out of the covid pandemic you might remember we had the shells were barren in terms of beef andmber of other products that were really critical. you also probably saw built up shots to all the different supply chains and food and agriculture. and the biden harris took elected called the three prong approach. it's about giving more choices at every stage of the supply chains of the producers farmers and ranchers have more choices to sell into so there are more competitive opportunities in the middle part fewer bottlenecks. and consumers have more transparency and choices to be able to take advantage of all those new opportunities. we did kind of a three-pronged effort. we took the funds that were provided by congress and the american rescue plan and deploy $1 billion there is more local and regional packers and chicken processors and others in the middle part of the bottleneck so there is more of a choices both for consumers and farmers and ranchers. that's a long-term effort is not, you'll change instantaneously but it's important to lay the groundwork. another thing we immediat

you didn't really care about all the people who lost their jobs during covid, did you, jessica yeah, i did, i think i did. roll the tape of her not caring. no, it's not, it's not it doesn't work that well with. >> me because. >> i do. >> have moments of. >> sanity. and i am. >> being consistent. >> here in all of this. >> but the. >> the american people. >> understand that whether. >> they agree. with the. >> larger premise of getting. >> rid of. >> waste. >> fraud and abuse, that that isn't. what's happening here. >> they know what the 1990s. >> looked like. >> they know what. >> happened when we actually worked with congress over the course. of can you turn? >> oh, charlamagne. >> that just happened. >> yeah, it did just happen. >> what are you looking at? charlamagne? >> she's watching the. >> breakfast club. >> anyway, the 1990s. >> is how you do it. >> not what elon musk is doing. well, you know what's interesting is that you hear from so many people who don't know how businesses work that you have to make big cuts. and this happens in every company. >> well. >> why didn't they.

but his handling of the covid pandemic also came under scrunity.mo face off against another politician embroiled in scandal, current new york city mayor eric adams — who faced federal corruption charges. in launching his bid for mayor of america's most populated city, andrew cuomo said new york is in crisis, and needs effective leadership. awards season is well and truly under way — hollywood's finest will be celebrated on sunday at the oscars, one of the most distinguished events in the film industry. musical crime drama emelia perez is going into the 97th academy awards as a frontrunner with 13 nominations. for more, earlier i spoke to marc malkin — senior editor of culture and events at variety. ijust want i just want to talk about eve best picture category festival. a lot of years, it feels preordained and it is not really the case of this year. it may be two or three films have a pretty good shot. not the case at all. you have an aura and the brutalist, picking up so many awards. conclave picked up best ensemble as the sag awards, the best pic

and for the first time since the pandemic flu deaths have surpassed covid deaths.been at least 29 million cases of the flu and 370,000 americans have been hospitalized for problems related to the illness. that's the most since the 2015 flu season. the health agency reporting up to 16,000 people have died from the flu this season. >> one of the you groups that are risk. every kids we've seen kid deaths in san diego teens. we've seen some of the highs hit deaths in general, which is iran. 85 across the country. and that's probably expected to part of it is really from lower vaccination rates. and that group. >> the cdc's report comes as a federal officials canceled vaccine advisory meeting which was expected to be held in march. the meeting is meant to help select the makeup of next. winter's of flu vaccine. this is the second federal vaccine advisory panel that's been postponed or canceled since robert f kennedy junior was sworn in as health and human services secretary. still ahead here on kron for news at 10 below average. today's snow survey reveals california's

. >> covid my friends, was the greatest threat faced in a generation. it was life and death.at first, and we had it worse. everyone did their part. everyone held their position. and we kept this place, this great place running, and we saved lives, and we let the nation, so can we handle this challenge? can we turn the city around? you are [bleep] right, we can. >> sandra: andrew cuomo resigned under a dark cloud of multiple scandals, and now he wants to run new york city as mayor. a retired nypd inspector and fox news contributor. i'm sure you have a lot of thoughts on that. >> i was here for has a sense politically. he has a lot to answer for. if you look at the litany of things that are really plugging new york city right now, most of them can be tied to him. if you look at the high cost of energy, he presided over the closing of the powerpoint, nuclear power plant. he closed out, completely shut down any possibility of new york fracking. new york has vast fracking reserves that could have been accessed. would have stimulated upstate new york which is always short of jobs.

when covid was hit and he was laid off from his construction job, he started a nacho business on theeets. >> we would use three different cheeses. i like a whiter cheese sauce. i don't want anybody to think it is velveeta when they walk up. >> reporter: and it was so successful at pop-up events, he ditched to concentrate on nachos full time. >> we were popping up six days a week. >> reporter: but there were a couple of problems without a commercial kitchen and no official business permits, you could only go so far. >> and for the last two years or so, i'd be like oh, i want to go to the next step, get my permits and my insurance and license and all that. sometimes it just felt out of reach. >> reporter: that's when the program at the non-profit prosperity lab stepped in. >> we would help with technical assistance, with permitting process, planning, recipe development. >> reporter: it gives the inspiring entrepreneurs the help they need, plus free use of the kitchens and cold storage for the first six months. and a $400 scholarship to help them pay for business permits. >> a lot of th

hit. >> you know we're all sick of talking about covid but here we are as businesses and particularly our largest businesses went to remote work. >> it had a huge impact on the amount of taxes that they owed to san francisco. this is a analysis done by ted egan in the comptroller's office to show to sort of estimate if companies hadn't transitioned into remote work in 2021. so if you assumed all the same facts but their workers were in-person versus remote, how much would they have paid? so this isn't really revenue lost but it's sort of like an opportunity cost. this is what we think we would have gotten. >> also keep in mind at this time and this is reflected here many of these companies were doing very, very well. so they were they were still paying quite a bit of taxes. and so you can see here that in our top three sectors the comptroller's office is estimating about $485 million in and in a loss or an opportunity cost that we could have gotten if the workers were in-person. and i want to explain a little bit of why this this exists the tax before prop em had different calculation

the covid nursing home policy that the governor put into place during the pandemic. that's the other big thing that everyone likely remembers. andrew cuomo, for his very prominent role during the pandemic with those televised briefings. >> and, you know, how might this complicate things for the current new york city mayor, eric adams? >> so, fred, that was really the other big question that we were contemplating this entire time. was he going to jump in or not? and it was because of the current mayor, mayor eric adams, who the two men for many years have been friendly. and there had been a question about whether or not cuomo was going to challenge adams in the primary, given that relationship and perhaps most importantly, that the voters, these two men would likely go after are very similar. a moderate democrat who is concerned with public safety, black and brown new yorkers, black voters in queens and brooklyn are going to be essential for either of these two men in order to be able to win elections. so that's a complicating factor. but i've been speaking to my sour

>> well, it was kind of a it was a covid project, actually. it it translates a little bit to the, the community aspect that we were just talking about. we were looking for something in our neighborhood that we're bringing people out because we just spent a couple of years all being isolated from one another, and there wasn't that spot in the in the neighborhood. so i know we're a market, but we're also a, a coffee shop and a deli, and we have seating areas and we what's wonderful and what has what has happened that's so wonderful is that people are meeting there now and, and they're coming out. and, you know, i've lived in the community for the last 12 years. i met more of my neighbors in the last two than i did in the previous ten. so it's been really nice. >> yeah, that that really says something, especially about what you're trying to accomplish there. mike, though there's also this push today along with, you know, boycotting major retailers to spend cash at a store like yours. why is that important? >> that was a nice touch for the organiz

but i can tell you that under the cover of covid, china dramatically increased their export capacity. and they are trying to export their way to prosperity. they are in an economic crisis. they have gigantic deflation. it's unacceptable for them to export that to the rest of the world. i think north america would be a very good start for pushing back against this unfair trade policy. >> that would be a significant development. >> very significant. >> which would avoid tariffs that are supposed to go out on tuesday. >> we will see. >> okay. we will be watching that space. i want to ask you about ukraine. you were in the oval office meeting that went sideways on friday. president zelenskyy was toeld t leave the white house before he could sign the minerals agreement. he said it's the first step towards security guarantees. we need more than that. a cease-fire without security guarantees is dangerous for ukra ukraine. is the deal on the table? has president trump instructed you to drop the project? >> it's impossible to have an economic deal without a peace deal. the foreign economic dea

mire, antes de la vacuna contra el covid 19 por cada persona infectada se contagiaban tres mÁs.camente el 2% tiene las dos dosis requeridas segÚn los centros para el control y prevenciÓn de enfermedades. antes de que se desarrollara la vacuna contra el sarampiÓn en la dÉcada de los 60, aquÍ en estados unidos morÍan entre 400 y 500 niÑos por aÑo. la inmunizaciÓn logrÓ erradicar esta enfermedad en el paÍs en el aÑo 2000 y esta noche tambiÉn. seguimos muy pendientes de la salud del papa francisco, quien hoy tuvo una recaÍda tras sufrir una nueva crisis respiratoria. un ataque de tos provocÓ que inhalara vÓmito y ahora requiere ventilaciÓn asistida. vamos con rogelio mora-tagle, quien nos acompaÑa desde roma con lo Último sobre la salud del papa. adelante, rogelio. >> quÉ tal, aranza? despuÉs de pasar cuatro dÍas con mejorÍas que fueron leves y de registrar una maÑana sin sobresaltos a las 14:00 de la tarde, hora local, volvieron a encenderse las alarmas en el hospital gemelli, donde se encuentra internado el papa desde el 14 de febrero. y es que el pontÍfice registrÓ un episodio re

they they were just we hadn't seen them as much for that reason and covid, betsy really protected him every time she came into the shop lately, she was wearing a mask, so she just did not want him to get sick. so. >> you know, just a obviously a great a great love there. i mean, barbara, i know you've been to their house so many times and, you know, officials are now saying, you know, that door in the back of the house was left open. it's a big house, obviously, as we're even seeing images of it. would it have been normal for for things like that, doors to be open or, you know. >> you know, i have no idea. no idea about that, no idea about the investigation. we're just shattered. but we don't know what happened. >> daniel, how how difficult has it been for you to process what happened? the fact that this is, you know, this is the national story, that it is. >> yeah. >> i think that, uh, well, it just puts people that were quite close to us into a kind of a story that we think isn't, uh, at all filled in yet. and. >> yeah. >> certainly. what the, the intention of, uh, signing to them t

look at all of the censoring when it came to covid. obviously, republicans are being hypocritical in this sense. i've talked about how my twitter account was somehow reported after i began criticizing elon musk. it was the first time it ever happened. i don't trust elon musk on this any more than i trust elon musk. on being concerned about the country or anything beyond his personal ambition. i've been critical of him. i don't understand this decision. i mean, i hear what the administration says about the ap, but i think that the ap and many of these outlets, i get you wanting to bring other outlets, more independent outlets in. i understand that, but the ap serves a role, and i think that the administration is being petty by not allowing the ap to be there. >> ap and reuters, when. reuters was was in there. and by the way, then you end up with questions like we heard with zelenskyy, which is why don't you wear a suit? i mean, so we're leaving out the real reporters and allowing these other ones to come in. what's more troubling to me,

we had covid, then we had the strikes. now we havehe devastation of the fires.t of people understand is that if we don't work and we don't get a certain amount of hours, we don't have health insurance. film production in los angeles is on the decline, according to film la, which tracks permitting in the city. the number of shoot days has plummeted 30% compared to the average of the last five years, excluding 2020. what happened here in california is that everything just went because of tax incentives, and things got c cheaper to make in different places. this was the garage this weekend. bj. adrian and so many others affected by the fires can think only about the uncertainty of their own futures. we're all struggling. our heart aches not only for ourselves, but for everybody. we just want everyone to be okay. we want our community back. david noriega, nbc news, malibu. speaking of wildfires, governor newsom has declared a state of emergency to fast track wildfire prevention projects. the proclamation will suspend environmental regulations that he says are slowin

certainly during covid, he became sort of the face of the opposition for a lot of people.hat's probably hurt the mayor is that he seems to a lot of democrats to be intertwined, obviously, with the trump administration and the fact that they, the prosecutors, dropped their case against him. are we in a place where people, including democrats, will look at something and say, yeah, maybe he wasn't a great guy. maybe there were accusations against him, but who's going to run the city in a way that makes it better than it is now? because there are a lot of new yorkers who are disgruntled with the state of affairs in new york city right now. >> yeah. >> chris, those are good points. look, obviously the laws of politics have shifted a good deal. folks who have the types of skeletons in the closet that andrew cuomo have, i think, have a better chance at overcoming those. i think the public has displayed a higher tolerance for those types of imperfections in their in their candidates and potentially elected officials. a thing to remember about andrew cuomo, too, is that this era, t

i'm a covid adopter of golf and it pulled me out of depression initially. i want to thank you for initiating the process for the four rfq four for long term operating agreements and leases. this will increase investment in our courses. however, a last minute 11th hour decision to eliminate $6 million in golf but subsidies completely defeats the purpose of the rfq process. it is unfair. it's unrealistic that new agreements and leases will cover this grand canyon size gap. this is an inequitable and unfair policy change. by cutting the entire golf subsidy and not doing so from any other activity we golfers pay for the use of our courses while other activities largely do not. this is a very upsetting and bad political decision. it's unfair to pit activities that other athletes against one another instead spread the pain of this 5% cut across the board and not single out golf. don't throw the baby out with the bath water. find and find an equitable alternative to this unconscionable policy change. that will kill golf in our fair city. thank you. >> thank you. c

but i can tell you that under the cover of covid, china dramatically increased their export capacitynd they are trying to export their way to prosperity. they are this in an economic crisis. they have gigantic deflation and it's unacceptable to them to export that to the rest of the world. and i think north america would be a very good start for pushing back against this unfair trade policy. >> well, that would be a significant development. >> very significant. >> which would avoid tariffs, that are supposed to go out on tuesday. >> we'll see! >> okay. >> we'll be watching that space. i want to ask you about ukraine. you were in that oval office meeting, that went sideways on friday. president zelenskyy was told to leave the white house before he signed the minerals agreement that i know you have been working on. he said yesterday, though, he is ready to sign it. he called it the first step towards security guarantees, it's not enough. we need more than just that. a cease-fire without security guarantees is dangerous for ukraine. is the deal still on the table or has president trump

and for the first time since the pandemic flu deaths have surpassed covid deaths. the cdc says so far there have been at least 29 million cases of the flu and 370,000 americans have been hospitalized for problems related to the illness. that's the most since the 2015 flu season. the health agency reporting up to 16,000. people have died from the flu this season. >> one of the you groups that are risk. every kids we've seen kid deaths in san diego teens. we've seen some of the highs hit deaths in general, which is iran. 85 across the country. and that's probably expected to part of it is really from lower vaccination rates. and that group. the cdc's report comes as federal officials canceled a vaccine advisory meeting expected to be held and march. >> the meetings meant to help select the makeup of next. winter's flu vaccine. this is the second federal vaccine advisory panel to be postponed or canceled since robert f kennedy junior was sworn in as health and human services secretary. beachgoers can once again enjoy bonfires at the beach. no burn season. >> and some

you think we should go back and take money away from fraudulently getting covid money? >> during the pandemic, that program was a virtual buffet for fraudsters. it was because of the 1974 privacy act. congress needs to change that. >> we can do it retroactively. we can find the people that stole this money and hold them accountable. i already have that bill filed. it would probably get $100 billion. that has been proven in missouri. it does work. that is $200 billion. we should have a competition on this committee. i have $300 billion in savings proposed. we have such a massive problem right now. i would ask my colleagues across the aisle to get out of the way if you do not want to help. stop filing lawsuit after lawsuit. we do not have the financial ability to continue down this path. we will save this country with or without you. thank you. >> i now recognize the gentleman from texas. >> this subcommittee is supposedly about looking into waste, fraud, and abuse. so i would like to start talking about independent inspector generals who are supposed to be looking into i

maria: yeah, but we saw stimulus checks go out during covid or after the pandemic, and what happened?n. we saw the consumer price index go to 40-year highs. so how worried are you that sending money out to taxpayers is going to trigger inflation once again? >> you're right, maria. and we are still recovering from the biden-harris inflation, the worst in 40 years. as i'm sure you can appreciate the nuance here, the situation a little bit different. here's why. think about the macro backdrop when those checks went out in 2021. we had a supply chain crisis, we had a labor shortage a, we had all sorts of dislocations in the economy not to mention the fact that the fed was printing $100 billion a month and rates were at zero. the macro backdrop today is very, very different. drill, baby, drill means lower energy prices. deregulation, fiscal spending actually being reined in. is so the backdrop very, very different. and then polling data suggests that 70% of americans who would receive a doge dividend check like this would actually use it the pay down debt of their own, much of which they t
