i would like to know how hhs is approaching this challenge. can you talk a little bit about your efforts underway as secretary in your department to combat mental health? >> nice to see mr. thompson, look forward to seeing you again at some point. let me start with the second force -- second question first if i may. we recently announced we would be putting out three billion dollars for the american rescue plan that you help first to the finish line. that will help us put money into mental health services, and for substance use disorder if yours. this one i have never been possible without your help. we will put it forward immediately. we get to learn things from covid-19, right? tele-health was one of the benefits of seeing how we can adapt. now it's a matter of looking for some of that long tour and it will expire we look forward to looking with you, and someone from the party will have to come statute. the administrate the administration. we can't go back to the old way of doing business. we have to take advantage of tele-health. >> thank y

in your short tenure at hhs, mr. secretary, you've already shown how the aca has continued to expand its reach and its positive impacts. 31 million americans now have health care coverage through the aca thanks to our accomplishments over these last 11 years, and more than a million additional people in our country gained coverage over the -- [inaudible] there's still more work to be done. for example, 12 states still have not adopted the law's medicaid expansion and leave vulnerable people without coverage for, in and ms. cases, truly political reasons. i'd like to hear your thoughts -- [inaudible] we recently improved the tax credit for people, but we need to make these investments permanent. that's the kind of action -- the insured population and to help those who are covered thanks to the aca stay covered. while the affordable care act certainly has helped reduce american health care costs, many people still fall victim to surprise medical billing, unexpectedly facing exorbitantly high prices for their care. at t

in the short tenure of hhs, mr. secretary, you have shown how you can expand the reach and the positive impacts. 31 million americans now have health coverage through the aca thanks to the accomplishments over the last 11 years. and more than a million additional people gained coverage through the marketplaces in the last four months. there is still more work to be done, and for example, the 12 states have adopted the medicare expansion, and many more millions of vulnerable people with coverage for purely political reasons. i'd lick to hear your thoughts to ensure that everyone who needs coverage gets it. i was pleased to see that the advanced premium tax credit will help people to get their plans to make it permanent. that is the type of the actions that can ensure the population, and to help those covered by the aca to stay covered. while the affordable health can fall prey to exorbitantly high cost of charges for their care and billing. at the end of the last year, congress acted to address the crisis with bipart

this is the unaccompanied minors in hhs custody. unaccompanied myrens have been streaming across the border in unprecedented numbers for months now. i've been there. there is a real cries at the southern border. i'm concerned the administration is in denial about this and certainly has no plan to address this. so i've written two separate letters to you on this issue. and i -- mr. chairman, i ask unanimous consent both the letters be entered into the record. >> so ordered. >> and it's understanding the children will be provided expanse sponsor but a good number are in the i believe it's roughly 10% of the unaccompany the mirg kids have no sponsor, need some sort of foster term long territory product. the problem is our foster care system is overwhelmed and in some cases simply cruel. and given the significant increase in kids coming across the border over the last few months in the knowledge that this is already hurting some of our u.s. foster kids as we try to get a roof over their head in foster parents, what is your plan to prote

as to who was leaving response fema or hhs. and the lead question for me is who should be charged with leading and managing federal efforts during the prolonged and malls fema certainly has the capability to court innate resources and manpower, which if he was in hhs respective roles be for future similar events. >> has a very good question prayed famous very good where we fail at is being able to collaborate across the federal government to bring right stakeholders together. that's been some of the problems we been facing the recent years. we i think we have more to do make sure that we are working with our partners across the federal government to better understand with the capabilities are rated were the roles and response abilities need to be duly needed to do. so i commit to being able to work across the government and understanding capacity and where the roles and responsibilities need to be defined. >> can you get a little bit more details on that. do you think that needs to take a form up legislation, this conversation

as fema helping ice hhs or any other government agencies the contract. deanne: i'm not familiar with that contract and again, and supporting a mission is to help coordinate the federal families that's involved. clyde: okay. with that, as all of the questions i have and i think you for your support of the crisis at theti southern border. we need to get that fixed and with that i yield back. >> the chair recognizes the gentleman urgently from las vegas. >> thank you mr. chairman. and it is nice to see the administrator again, we just visited with her with fema so thank you for being with us. at this moment, and question i raised with that secretary in the language in the funding, the budget proposed it at 15-point $3m dollar decrease in the last funding and that i noted that the criteria, and the commitment to try to work with me to make sure that we get the funny and that it remains a good resource. [inaudible]. and a new emphasis a new direction. you asked the funny has been such an amazing jobob at the compete in front capability or state and local juri

do you work with the cdc, hhs, public health? who would be the head agency when dealing with a pandemic, and do we need to think how to score true readiness at the state, local, tribal and territorial levels? >> fema -- the phrase that you mentioned, federally-supported, state-managed, locally executed i think is an important concept to bring up. i've been a local emergency manager. they start and end with the local jurisdiction. that's the locally executed part. the state and the federal government need to be part of that process to make sure that they're successful. the federal government does that in a number of ways by making sure we're increasing their capacity to be able to perform their mission. when it came to supporting the vaccination effort or supporting the covid-19 response in general, coming from my own experience in new york city, it truly was a collaborative approach of making sure that the federal government, while they're supporting, they understood the needs of the local jurisdiction, and letting the local juri

>> fema is actually getting reimbursed from hhs for our support. there has been no funding allocated from the disaster recovery fund in support of the mission. >> how much has fema spent already, though? >> i don't have those numbers. we certainly can add that to the report we give you. >> okay. there is articles in the news the $86 million non-complete dhs contract to family endeavors is under a microscope now to see whether or not it was proper. is fema helping i.c.e., hhs, or other government agency with the contracts? >> i'm not familiar with the contract. our role, again, in supporting that mission is to help coordinate the federal family that is involved. >> with that, that's all the questions i have. i thank you for your support of the crisis at the southern border. we need to get that fixed. with that, i yield back. >> gentleman yields back. chair recognizes the gentlelady from las vegas, ms. titus, for five minutes. >> thank you, mr. chairman. it's nice to see the administrator again. we just visited with her in subcommittee that oversees

it now we the hhs secretary

witness from hhs for my statements. it is a bit about the future which you are fully engaged in. we need a better response to public health emergencies. i want to talk about the parameters of the provider relief fund. hhs, in my view, was terribly slow in their release of guidance on how the funds could be utilized. there's been a lot of confusion by health care providers. they've been reluctant to spend the money. we're incapable of solving problems if the resources we provide those in the health care field they are not utilizes if they're fearful if they don't know what the guidance is and therefore if they make a mistake, they'd have penalties at a later date. what is the plan to get hhs to perform better or more quickly so that providers have the necessary information and comfort level to take the steps necessary to prevent the spread of the virus and to care for the health care of americans and others? and the part that doesn't necessarily involve you but in hopes that hhs is otherwise listening, there's about $24

can hhs force you to take antibiotics for tb? or zannac for anxiety? are we letting defective people reproduce? why not sterilize? sound crazy? it happened before on a huge scale. in response do this the atrocities that were commited in previous generations, medical privacy, the right to control the medicines take, these are the pillars of medical ethics officially. tony fauci declared them merely a political statement. >> it's easy to get. it's free and it's readyly available. what is the problem? get over it! get over this political statement -- just get over it. >> tucker: get over. you don't have a right to disagree. you must take this medicine. this is a well trod road and a scary one. we saw this a century ago. in the early 1900 officials in boston made example of a swedish born pastor who refused to take the government mandated smallpox vaccine. he had already taken it in sweden and nearly died from it. he took his case to the supreme court. in the end the supreme court ruled against him. that was a brand new precedent as now. it didn't take lon

i want to read what hhs secretary javier becerra said. provide safe and appropriate care for the unaccompanied -- we take allegations of wrongdoing seriously and swiftly. report allegations not only to the office of the inspector -- sorry, i'm -- we take -- we constantly work to improve the conditions and services required to care for children in these challenging settings. i have been to ft. bliss, including this month. i have inspected conditions of facility and questioned site managers. i have spoken to children while they are in our custody. we continue to receive safe, appropriate care and every emergency site will be investigated. um, my question, i guess, for you is what -- what, now, happens with these complaints? and are there going to be changes, at this facility? >> yeah. i mean, that's the thing they're not committing to, right? they are talking about taking piecemeal allegations and referring them authorities or referring them to internal controls through the office of the inspector general. but what we haven't heard, either,

we've got more on the white house and the hhs secretary, we've got this story next as well.it does sort of reveal that the biden administration, you know, everything within the biden administration at this point is political. but, i mean, this is pretty stunning if you stop and think about it. you know, being pro-choice is out the window. medical privacy is out the window now with the democratic party. it's all about giving the government power to make decisions that should be left to patients and their doctors. ♪♪ when she was 19 weeks pregnant with finn, kelly went in for a routine ultrasound. the doctor knew that something was wrong when he looked at his heart and saw that there weren't any chambers and there were abnormal connections. after finn was born, he needed multiple surgeries and procedures just so he could survive. he has had 17 procedures including two open heart surgeries. to be perfectly honest, i can't see finn even getting past birth without the american heart association. finn's entire family is grateful to the american heart association. their support of

now this, the white house today walking back the hhs secretary who a alarmed the country saying, quoteit's absolutely the government's business to know who has not been vaccinated. also tonight conservatives at cpac in dallas today, they're blasting away at lockdowns and progressive runaway spending and more. former president trump is the headliner on sunday. on the show tonight, congressman michael cloud, former white house chief information officer teresa payton, fox news contributor sean duffy, retired army captain and nevada gop senatorial candidate, he is sam brown. also dr. marty makary, former deputy national security adviser kt mcfarland, ford o'connell and tom homan. more on hhs secretary becerra saying the government has a right to know who is not vaccinated because the government has spent trillions of dollars of your money on the pandemic. becerra says he's been taken wildly out of context. he does not say how. plus, the update on this controversy, big tech censorship of conservatives. look at this new report that shows google's youtube algorithm actually recommends and amp

fema will be deploying mobile vaccination clinics in north carolina and today hhs secretary is traveling to nevada where we have deployed federal resources and 100 personnel from fema and hhs to support local health officials as they work to mitigate the spread of delta and increased vaccinations. in closing the whole of government response continues to do everything we can to get more americans fully vaccinated and protected from the virus to help states and communities curb the spread of the delta variant. as the president said last night it's up to each and every american to do their part. we know everyone's vaccination journey is different. we are ready to get more americans vaccinated where ever and when ever they are ready. so please consider vaccination today. it is free it is available it works and is never been more important and with that i turn it over to doctor murphy. >> thank you so much and it's great to be with all of you today beside acknowledging the obvious it is troubling to see a rise in covid cases and a reminder we are not out of the woods yet that cases are down d

can hhs force you to take in about ask for your tb, xanax for anxiety, thorazine for your mania? while we're at it, where are we letting these peoplewh reproduce? why are we sterilizing them? some crazy? that's happened before on a huge scale. so in response to the atrocities that have been committed in previous decades, physical autonomy in the right to control the medicine you take, these are the pillars of medical ethics, unofficially. where they were, they no longer are. tony fauci has declared them really a political statement. >> it's easy to get, it's free and it's readily available so, you have to ask, what is the problem? get over it. get over this political statement, just get over it.on we want to get over it, you don't have a right to disagree, you must take this medicine. this is a well trodden road that we are on and it's a scary one. we seen this before more than a centuryce ago. in the early 1900s, officials in boston and of course decided to make it an example of a swedish born pastor called henning jacobson. jacobson refused to take the government mandated small

>> this meeting is a meeting that hhs is overseeing. i would say that we don't see it as a disagreement, per se, but we provide public health information to make determinations based on a large swath of data and that relates to boosters as well. some of that information that the fda and cdc look at, this was in their statement last week, does include some private sector data and that can be part of how they assess what recommendations will be. it is a much broader swath of information than that. we continue to analyze data. science evolves and we have long said we will reserve options including how we are purchasing doses of vaccines to ensure we have maximum option analogy for the american public, but any assessment would be made by the cdc and the fda. we made clear last week that wasn't a recommendation being made at this time. and i also point to something that was said yesterday, when dr. fauci conveyed the could be assessments made about certain swaths of the population. it may not be other -- all or nothing, but that is something

i want to get to former hhs secretary brett giroir on this.ew developments? >> well, i think that the truth is starting to manifest itself. it's well known that the french from collaborated to build the lab and then kicked out after it was up and running, a concerning behavior if you want transparency and openness of research, you don't kick out the people that help you build the lab and train your people, this is known and another piece of direct evidence for us to be very concerned about the origins of this virus, which i believe is from the wuhan lab. >> charles: former assistant hhs secretary. so france helps them out 2015. 2017, china severs their ties over complaints. when this lab was built, was it always built with the intention of focusing on gain of function, which is controversial since america seems to also made investments in china's ability to manipulate viruss in the first place. >> it's hard to know the intent in 2004-8 when the lab was being built. we had clear evidence that gain of function research or if not technically gain

a lot of works asacol tier details it where hhs houses migrant children.e alleging that hhs officials instructed them to minimize a covid outbreak at the facility earlier this year in a complaint and sent to four congressional committees they say, quote: every effort was made to down play the degree of covid infection at the site and the size of the outbreak was deliberately kept under wraps. fox news has reached out to hhs for comment. they have not sent back comments. meanwhile, a terrifying covid alert in la joya, texas part of the rgv where they're seeing a spike among migrants i don't. outrage abbott bands anyone other than state and law enforcement official from transporting migrants to try and stop the spread of covid into texas. >> the biden administration cares more about people who are not residents of america. he has one standard trying to mask up and vaccinated our fellow americans by allowing free pass into the united states of people with a high probability of covid and then spreading that covid up in our communities. griff: this comes after

local media and the rio grande valley reporting the hhs tents are set to close later this month.uses with migrants leaving the donna facility over and over. their destination unknown. this, as democratic congresswoman rashida tlaib says dhs should be defunded. >> we must eliminate funding for cbp, ice, and parent organization dhs. time after time, we have seen it as advocates on the ground human services agency on the ground to continue to see over and over again that these agencies are inept, they further continue to terrorize migrant communities. >> frankly, it's very disturbing when you hear a sitting member of congress referring to people who are keeping our nation secure as terrorists. >> and shannon, the hhs at the present time compound here at this facility primarily meant to house migrant children. fox news spoke with hhs and they tell us as of last week out of the 1500 beds they have available for those kids here, only 196 of them were filled up. so they have some room here. we asked them today are those reports true that they're closing their side of the facility. we di

each time hhs says we address each allegation individually.ere was 4,000 children in fort bliss. people like arthur said they're still concerned about how children are being treated, whether or not they're getting clean clothes, and what the government might not be showing the american public. no press has been allowed inside of ft. bliss. >> julia. i want to know viewers here that you can catch more of that exclusive interview with julia tonight. lester, of course, live from tokyo where you can watch prime time coverage tonight on nbc. lots going on as we keep an eye with gymnastics, track and field, thank you for watching this hour of hallie jackson reports. you can find us on twitter on hallieonmsnbc. we're also looking ahead to next week's coverage including what will happen with that eviction moratorium. will that vote go down today. will they mess that dead line? we're going to talk more about that next week along with where things stand on the bipartisan infrastructure deal. that does it for us. i'll see you back here on monday. for now

the secretary of the hhs? dr. birx, soon to be covid response coordinator? there is no one from the government on the call except tony fauci. he and 11 other individuals who got a bunch of american tax dollars. what happened on the conference call? we do not know what they talked about. i think we have a good idea but do not know for sure but we know what happened four days later. four days later, february 4, 2020, christian anderson, the guy who started it all and said the virus looks engineered, said this four days later. the crackpot theory is going around at the moment related to this virus being somehow engineered. that is demonstrably false. what? he went to that is debauchery false in four days. it gets even better. mr. anderson and three other people on this call write an article later that says covid is not a laboratory construct. while they are writing that article, there is any mail from march 6 were mr. anderson offered to let dr. fauci edit the article before it is published. here is the kicker. here is the kicker. when the article is published,

hhs is not commenting. washington post reporting the administration is halting plans on title 42 at the border. todd: seems they had no option but to do that but with this administration you'd be surprised what they do. we have been measured in pointing out the hypocrisy of the covid situation with the new mask requirements and mask mandates, he is pretty fired up about it, congressman chip roy yesterday, listen to this. >> we have a crisis at our border and are playing footsie with mask mandate and the people's house. it is absolutely absurd with his body is doing, and embarrassment, mockery and the american people are fed up. they want to go back to life, back to business, back-to-school, their children being forced to wear masks, to be put in a corner, may have mental health issues. todd: that anger into motion you heard continues that theme of if i do everything right and follow the tools and play by the rulebook i'm not going to be able to live my life the way i thought i would by following those rules

todd: it is friday july 9th, the white house and cleanup of mode after president biden's hhs secretary claims it is the government's right to know your vaccine status. jillian: georgia police arrest a man in the murder of a georgia golf pro that happened in broad daylight. what we know about the suspect. todd: back away from the trophy, brady, don't even think about it. a stern warning as another championship trophy heads to tampa. championship friday. "fox and friends first" starts right now. >> good morning, good friday morning, best news if you're just waking up, you made it through the week, it is friday, you are watching "fox and friends first". todd: what are you doing getting ready this morning? you are a very tiny person. carley: i was at my desk typing, doing the normal stuff. it must have been somebody else. i blame ashley strohmeyer. todd: hhs secretary xavier becerra backtracking a comment in which he stated was the government's business to know if americans have been vaccinated. carley: lauren blanchard joins us with more as a study shows vaccination for kids and teens may

they could not hold the kids and they were put in hhs shelters.s holding them. but it is still hoovering around 15,000 or 16,000. and the reality is this week it has increased. and it is one of, i think the biden administration's issues when it comes to immigration. they seem not to have been able to put their arms directly around this issue. and i do want to just credit my colleagues for being down at the border and looking at kids in cages but there is similar situations that require more attention. especially with whistle-blower complaints. with kids getting covid, that have been under reported, it is a serious issue that i think the biden administration is trying to kick down the road, but the numbers are the numbers. >> juilo, and i want specifically to quote what you're talking about. a new report saying two whistle-blowers were told to downplay a covid outbreak. how does this happen and where do we go from here? >> can i step in jose? i would just say, janet and juilo. >> i appreciate the tracking of this, it is so important to make sure th

and so we know that that height amendment as well as several other provisions not just labor in hhs and education bill but other appropriation bills as well that had various impacts helped democrats remove all of those from the spending bills that they existed and so that is going to be one of the really big policy and funding fights. we heard this morning in the subcommittee markup that republicans are planning to offer an amendment later this week and full committee markup and add permissions back into the bill and things will be successful with that, but it's most likely they will also try to get amendment on the house floor later this month if the bill goes to house floor for debate. we don't yet know what the senate appropriation committee may or may not do with the height amendment and the other provisions throughout their bills. we know that over there, subcommittee chairman, she has been vocal that she supports removing the height amendment from thatup spending bill, but democratic joe manchin has indicated that he's not supportive of removing the height amendment and other prov

>> said meeting hhs is y overseeing certainly refer to them for specific readout of the reading. i do not see it as a disagreement per se. the large swaths of data that relates to booster shots as well. some of that information the fda and the cdc look at this was in the statement last week does include private sector data. back and be how they assess what recommendations will be. it is a much broader swath of information and data than that. stated we continue to analyze. sinus evolves, we have long said that we will reserve options -- option analogy including how we are pursing -- purchasing doses of vaccine to victory of option for the american public brit in the assessment will be made by the cdc and the fda. we made clear last week that was not a recommendation. i want to point to summing doctor fauci said the south or in some of the networks. when he conveyed there could be assessments made about certain swaths ofee population as well. it may not be all or nothing. that is something the scientists will continue to assess. if they make a conclusion that booster shots are reco

xavier becerra should've never been hhs secretary but he is and so we have to deal with it. the point is democrats know one thing: blunt force, government intervention. that's what we are seeing. quite frankly, these types of things they say, reactions would repel people from getting vaccines. people should get the vaccine but we should use democratic -- shouldn't use democratic, government interference. let's educate, get creative. if we want people to get vaccinated we have to be smart about it. >> shannon: people feel that this has encroached in the government being more involved in their lives. a conservative activist and writer puts this on twitter. slow the spread. flatten the curve. step three, no new deaths, no new cases. not before a vaccine. now before everyone is vaccinated. door-to-door vaccine solicitation. if you heard the steps, there of those raising questions about how far it's going to go before people get their privacy or their lives back. >> steps one through seven can't happen without people being willing to participate. so i'm all about people having a

tweeting today it's none of the government's business knowing who has or hasn't been vaccinated but hhs secretary hit back with this. listen. >> we should point out that the federal government has spent trillions of dollars to try to keep americans alive during this pandemic so it is the government's business continuing to spend money to try to keep people from contracting covid in helping reopen the economy. >> so now making moves hand in glove at the white house to clarify those remarks. jacqui heinrich joins us from 1600 pennsylvania avenue with the fallout in the strategy going forward on this. >> really trying to correct the record after the interview spark some backlash. he tweeted some comments i made today are being wildly taken out of context. to be clear, the government has no database tracking who was vaccinated encouraging people to step up and protect themselves by getting vaccinated. it's the best way to save lives in and this pandemic. yesterday, white house press secretary jen psaki made clear that folks going door-to-door are not government officials but faith leaders,

federal detainees were regularly given written instructions from hhs public affairs that told them, quote everything sound positive about the ft. bliss experience and to play down anything negative. the complaint comes just weeks after other whistle-blowers from ft. bliss came forward also alleging migrant minors were supervised by adults that did not speak spanish and had no child care experience. for more on this i'm joined by nbc correspondent julia ainsley who has done extensive reporting on immigration here. julia, give us more details about what protocols were allegedly ignored by managers of this facility in ft. bliss, texas. >> reporter: so ayman, these whistle-blowers were federal employees who were detailed to these facilities. there was a large call for volunteers when we saw that surge of unaccompanied migrant children starting around march of this year. they volunteered. they went down and what they saw there they are now detailing and putting their names on a whistle-blower complaint to congress saying that as covid started to surge there were children, hundreds of them, pac

we're working with fbi, hhs and cdc and seeking what agents we should be expanding so we are looking to improve that system and we have looked to ask, are we in the right place to provide the most protection for the money to the american public? where taking actions here. >> thank you. let me quickly go to mr.ay curr. i feel like her to say throughout this whole process, i told you before because it seems like the same issues are persistent here. global detection architecture is the work developed to analyze report on nuclear and other active material. based on your work reviewing these, you believe properly prioritizing these responsibilities and if not, why? please explain the implications for your dereliction. >> thank you, sir. thank you for the question. it's been a little bit of time we have issued a full-scale report but i will say this. one of the interesting things with the reorganization is domestic reorganization process merging and combining with other officers. know, these officers, a very high-performing office the bubble and nuclear detection was a real success in the
