bret giroir, guy benson and texas attorney general ken paxton. tonight we have rare footage, rare sound you may have not seen, sound head of the northern profit echo health alliance. he is denying the lab theory pushing supervirus funding research, all of that news is pushing back, trying to deny it. this is theory. that dr. fauci and the nih gave his non-profit money and then non-profit turned around and funded the wuhan lab. we have dr. dacik on tape, we were researching with china coronaviruses for six or seven years. yes, we created a new man-made supervirus not seen in nature inside labs in china. we'll show you this. also 18 scientists from mit, harvard, yale, one who actually worked on superviruses with the wuhan lab say yeah, investigate the covid lab leak theory. so why is cnn pushing back on this, giving a pass to china which has a major incentive to cover up the worst pandemic in recent memory? guess who cnn is now blaming. we're following this. bank ceos got grilled at a senate hearing today but what the senators did not drill into th

first, to brett giroir on the consequences of this. admiral, great to see you. i have so many questions for you. just talking to people in the building, you know, at home in the neighborhood, other parents, everybody is confused. so is it the messaging coming from the white house, the cdc? who is getting this wrong so we can all get back to normal? >> first of all, let me say it's been very confusing. three different points. number 1, they did a complete aboutface from what they did a week earlier. even dr. fauci on the morning when they changed the guidance. secondly, it's obvious they didn't let any state or local officials know. it's astounding to me that when you have new school guidance, you can consult with the teacher's unions and let them edit your final documents. but you don't talk to the state and local officials. the third and most important thing, the cdc should be telling us what is safe or relatively safe or not safe to do. their guidance is what you can and cannot do. they have neither the authority or expertise to do this. the guidance says you

former coronavirus testing czar admiral giroir will join us in a moment. peter doocy will join us from the white house. >> very interesting here at the white house. the guidance keeps evolving. president biden started out by saying people need to be either vaccinated or masked. but now he is saying the va*x is much better against covid. >> president biden: science shows your vaccination protects you as well as being masked or better than being masked. >> just this weekend outdoors the fully vaccinated president wore a mask and for people like him who want to do that he is asking others to be understanding and kind. as for people who don't want to get vaccinated he has a grim warning. >> president biden: ultimately those not vaccinated will end up paying the price. >> democratic leaders are hesitant to follow the national cdc mask guidance for the vaccinated. california leaders are ignoring it going so far according to the "l. a. times" as to call national chains like trader joe's who tried to give customers an option to drop masks saying it breaks state ru

president did not make a single mention of operation warp speed whether it's redfield or azar or giroir or president trump. >> i'm one that wants to give credit where credit is warranted. certainly operation warp speed president trump put all of this into motion and mr. biden has followed through on it. i will tell you in the white house after we took our masks off and started talking about vaccinations he realized he was sitting with six republican senators voted to move forward with operation warp speed. he did give us a little credit, i will say that. >> we caught up on tuesday, senator, you told me that you believed heading into the meeting with the president yesterday that you could find some common ground, that there would be some bipartisan agreement when it came to infrastructure. you met with the president yesterday, he walked out of that meeting and said this. listen. >> president biden: i am very optimistic that we can reach a reasonable agreement but even if we don't, it's been a good faith effort just to start it. >> even if we don't. should we believe from that statement t

. >> sandra: brett giroir coming up in a little bit and it will be good to get his thoughts as well. >> john: to karl's point, i can imagine the outrage if the teachers union did not come out and say we will go back to school come september, august the many. >> sandra: but remember the precedent though not holding them to that thing probably and will return to full in the fall. >> john: if they don't go back... i don't want to be them. sandra, house republicans picking trumped the offender to replace liz cheney on the team. and basically this year of the g.o.p. conference at the number three job and the most powerful republican woman in the house. she was forced out earlier this week with infighting over the future of the party. cheney says she will continue her effort to prevent trump from winning the white house again in 2024. >> sandra: okay, john is really forces more firepower on the gaza strip and fighting continues with hamas militants. nelson for left democrats are breaking with the biden administration to support israel. what is the president's next move? >> john: plus biden

brett giroir was on one of the shows earlier saying that. these are not solely science decisions. you have political decisions, you have pardon me psychological decisions, you have economic decisions. steve mnuchin and i obviously not health scientists were on mike pence's task force because they wanted economic input. the cases have crashed downwards, thankfully. hospitalizations, same way. fatalities same way. that's been going on for many, many months. the teacher's union has changed its tune in the last week because they're feeling the political heat. big states, blue state governors from california and new york, also under political heat. they have started to change its tune. the vaccinations are working brilliantly. when you couple that with natural immunity, martha, you're basically at herd immunity for heaven's sakes. that's where you are. >> martha: i'm glad you said that. there was awhile that was like a dirty word. if you talked about herd immunity, you were being anti-science. i want to give a shout out to dr. marty makary who we have on a lot from johns hopkins. he sa

. >> bill: admiral giroir blames democrats relentless attacks on president trump on the vaccine for some of the vaccine hesitancy we're seeing right now in parts of the country. >> harris: thank you very much. i want to take a look at some of the stories popping this hour. tennessee police officer sherman is recovering after being shot in the arm yesterday in south nashville. officers responded to a 911 call about an active shooter. it was later determined to be a ploy, an ambush to get police to go to that scene. and when they arrived, they were under fire. the suspect later shot and killed himself. and in minneapolis, the former police officer derek chauvin is asking for a brand-new trial. his attorney says the convicted officer's constitutional right to a fair trial was violated. the request comes after a photo surfaced showing one of the jurors from his trial wearing a blm shirt raising questions about impartiality. semi retired nascar driverdale earnhardt junior will return to the speedway 20 years to the day after the 9/11 attacks. his car's paint scheme pays tribute to the lives a

liz: joining us now let's welcome back to the show former hhs assistant secretary brett giroir, so greathard what many scientists around the world say happened covid-19 did leak out of the wuhan lab, 18 scientist, mit, caltech, stanford, yale, harvard say look into it the cdc director says look into it and dr. fauci said that the possibility cnn is politicizing same there blaming trump pushing the theory to distract from his mismanagement of the pandemic. what do you say is. >> thank you for having me on rising been watching cnn for the past 15 months according to them everything that we did was antiscience races, politically motivated or all of the above and i think their heads are spinning around because they're realizing the president trump, secretary pompeo and all of us were correct that the most likely source was the wuhan t laboratory i think they cannot deal i with it but the facts remain, i concluded this martson cdc director concluded earlier than that that the most likely source is the wuhan lab. liz: scientists we have been talking to keep saying the coronavirus with the spik

brett giroir. we're talking a lot about geopolitics tonight.ant to shift over to what is going on in china. this is the a serious issue. we can't have another pandemic like we've experienced. did the u.s. fund china's supervirus research in. >> well, thanks for having me on i do share the assessment of the republican security committee that the most likely origin of this virus was the wuhan institute of virology. there is no specific smoking gun, but the circumstantial evidence is overwhelming, and the lack of another explanation is equally overwhelming. and i think very clearly back in the 2014-2015 era the nih was funding research that was published and we know about it about gain of function i mutations op on this type of virus. and i think there is a lot of investigation that needs to be done. if youou look at the series of grants that were funded, they all talked about bats, they all talked about coronavirus. but i would bet dollars to doughnuts that the nih does not have record or controls to understand exactly what was done. so it's very

admiral brett giroir assistant secretary of health and human services.ook the cdc so long and why the about face so quickly? >> so, thanks for having me on. who knows what took the cdc so long it probably could have been done a month ago. look at the whirlwind of what happened. wolenski was entrance yent in her position. yesterday morning dr. fauci said you still need to wear a mask indoors and each outdoors if you are in a crowd and by the afternoon it was all other. i assume the inflexion point hit. they probably got some political direction and they made the change. i welcome the change. we should all welcome the change. it's supported by the science and good thing for our country. will: supported by the science makes you wonder whether science was the guide. political wind blowing in the biden administration's face from the crisis in israel. the crisis at the border. schools still being closed to mixed cdc guidance from here on out to inflation, to gas shortages. everywhere you turned there was a crisis for the biden administration. do you think this
