charles: let's get straight up to hillary vaughn who is live in d.c. th more details on this purported proposal from president biden. hillary? reporter: hi, charles. these tax hikes star targeting the rich tagging along president biden's american family plan, rolling out billions of dollars in new government spending on child care and education. the tax hikes expected to pay for that $1.5 trillion package that is being reported by "the new york times" could include the following. one of most sensational of them is the massive almost, double increase on capital-gains taxes for investors, raising taxes on capital gains for people earning more than one million dollars to 39.6%. that combined with the existing surtax on investment income, means that the federal tax rate for investors could be as high as 43.4%. that is not the only tax hike expected to be part of this package as a pay-for for things like universe a.m. pre-k, free community college for some, for child care subsidies, expanded income tax credit and child tax credit that biden hopes will be a p

hillary vaughn live from capitol hill.overnor brian kemp moments ago on fox news channel. he said the ceos of delta, coca-cola, did not pick up the phone to ask him questions about the voting reform that he signed into law. bid say that he did speak with the commissioner of major league baseball about the law. he offered to explain anything in the bill but he says the conversation didn't go anywhere. he later got a call that mlb was moving the all-star game out of atlanta. today the white house is trying to distance itself from the blowback as more companies join in the boycott of this law but the white house and the president never took back any of the false claims they made about the law. today white house press secretary jen psaki would not say if the president regretted publicly supporting mlb's decision to boycott georgia? >> he would support that decision, that decision was made by major league baseball. just like he would support decisions made by private sector companies. we're not standing here, calling for compan

fox business' hillary vaughn is live in washington with the details. t this afternoon the white house is trying to distance themselves from the blowback of major league baseball moving its all-star game out of atlanta. but neither the white house or the ever walked back any of the misleading claims that they peddled about■ç the law that triggered major corporations chiming in against the law to also speak out against georgia's new voting lawment today the white house press secretary jen psaki would not say if the president regretted supporting mlb's decision after the fallout dealt a $100 million blow to atlanta's local economy. >> he would support that decision if that decision was head by major league baseball just like he would support decisions made by private sector company. we're not standing here and calling for companies to boycott. that's not what our focus is on from the white house. >> reporter: but senate minority leader mitch mcconnell taking the opposite viewpoint of the president saying when it comes to politics, buzzes should mind their

let's go to hillary vaughn following the fast-moving developments with the cabinet meeting, how the sell is going early on, with congress as well. she is on capitol hill. hey, hillary. reporter: neil, president biden has two big selling points for what could be the most expensive spending package in u.s. history. first, the trillions of spending will create millions of jobs. his second selling point, he promises it is already paid for. >> one of the things i admire about the president's plan it is fully paid for. anytime your car hit as hole in the road you're paying for that. the anytime a bridge collapses in america we're all pay for that we can invest now or we can pay the price later. reporter: but some critics say the math does not add up. the price of patching potholes and building better bridges is a fraction of the spending and the way to pay for all of it does not cover the full tab. the main revenue driver behind biden's package is the tax hike that raises the corporate tax rate to. 28% but the tax foundation tells fox business that raising the corporate tax rate over 10 years

spending plans but what if i told you he could have a devil of a time with some democrats as well, hillary vaughnsident biden is trying to create an appetite in congress for over $6 trillion in new government spending by saying he has a way to pay for it up front through tax cuts or tax hikes on the rich, but some democrats in the senate think he doesn't even need to do that. democratic senators brian schatz from hawaii and chris murphy from connecticut say they are open to adding trillions to the debt, to push through biden's agenda, and telling axios , "i'm not a big pay-for guy. i think some investments are worth deficit financing, nobody asks how we're going to pay for the united states military. it's only when it comes to progressive priorities that everybody freaks out and tries to find pay-fors, but other democrats like senator joe manchin and senator mark kelly have sticker shock over the pricey plans whether or not biden can buck up the cash, >> i wonder why we hear mitt romney or joe manchin, when we had the $1.9 trillion tax cut, $1.9 trillion tax cut, but the benefits of which 80% of

hillary vaughn exploring that, joins us from reagan international airport. oing airborne. i talked with someoned today from dhs who tells me migrants here illegally leaving their custody are allowed to fly. they essentially have the federal government's blessing to book a flight to stay with family members or a sponsor that is out of state. but they say the government is not picking up the tab for this. spotted last week at the mcallen, texas, airport, adult migrants -- some with children -- boarding united airlines flights if from mcallen to houston and then from houston to newark, new jersey. many of them held signs that say that they do not speak english. some of them don't have a proper id either, and the tsa tells me that they do make an exception for special circumstances like this telling me, quote: in or coordination with its dhs counterparts, tsa has identified accessible alternate identification for use in special circumstances at the checkpoint and maintains alternate methods for verifying identification. but immigration reform advocates tell us th

hillary vaughn handicapping that ahead of the president's speech tonight. hillary? reporter: neil, president biden will be pitching his next trillion dollar spending package directly to congress. he will make the case for the american families plan. in it is a lot of expensive proposals to pay for things like universal pre-k, for every 3 and 4-year-old in america. free two-year community college for everyone. republicans say these programs should be targeted for the people who cannot afford to pay instead of approving billions in blanket spending. >> i think the biden administration is trying to turn us into europe. social welfare economy, rather than the vibrant economy that we had pre-pandemic. they don't even want to means test it. for people who actually need help. reporter: biden has a way to pay for it though, raising the top tax rate to 39.6% for the rich. also raising capital gains but the white house says, if republicans don't like that way to pay they can come up with another idea but some republicans argue the government should not be paying for these thi

hillary vaughn is live on capitol hill with the latest. hillary?from democrats will help republicans win back the house in 2022. comments demonizing the police from democratic congresswoman maxine waters and rashida tallib are putting their democratic colleagues up for reporter in hot water. the nrcc is dropping five figures to run digital ads in five congressional districts and they think comments to defund the police will help republicans flip the seat and the adds showcase recent controversial statements from representative maxine waters who called for people to get confrontational ahead of the george floyd verdict and now waters is clarifying what she meant by that defending her statement in an la times op-ed saying, "to target me and say that i was violent or encouraging violence is a blatant distortion of the truth. i am non-violent." democrats are also going on the offense today, trolling the republican retreat in orlando, florida, today with a traveling billboard targeting congressman matt gaetz over his previous votes and comments and cong

believed that the driver acted alone and does not have your to be tied to terrorism as of yet, hillary vaughnitnessed the scene unfold at the capital and joins us now with more. >> we did and we also heard from capitol police providing an update and one very tragic and sad update this afternoon, one of the capitol police officers that the suspect who we know is a male struck with his vehicle has succumbed to his injuries and died at the hospital as a result of this attack that started at 1:00 p.m. this afternoon, were also learning that capitol police are still looking for a motive in this, they have not told the press what the motive could be but the suspect who is a male driving this vehicle has also succumbed to his injuries and died after capitol police shot him when he tried to lunge at them with a knife but the police say at this time there is no indication there are ties to terrorism. were also waiting to see what was in the vehicle, we can see from the birdseye view in the senate office building which is catty corner to the capitol dome, and between the capitol dome and the windows he

other things but even some senate democrats would rather seen them finance by deficit spending hillary vaughnden has defended asking congress for trillions in new government spending, by promising not to add the debt to do it, but some democrats, senate democrats, don't think that biden needs to bother with a way to pay upfront. democratic senators brian schatz from hawaii and chris murphy from connecticut say they are open to adding to the debt, to push through some of biden's agenda. telling axios, "i'm not a big pay for guy. i think some investments are worth deaf not financing. nobody asks how we're going to pay for the u.s. military only when it comes to progressive priorities that everybody freaks out and tries to find pay-fors." senator tester floating the idea that something like infrastructure, biden could pay for half upfront, and makeup the rest later in investments, but republicans across-the-board disagree and say these plans should be fully funded and fully paid for but also doubt the tax hikes biden says will pay for it will actually cover the full cost. senator chuck grassley

let's go to hillary vaughn who is inside the capitol for the very latest. >> reporter: charles, the scene remains really active here. for perspective, i'm here in the russell rotunda, and just to my left outside the window is the capitol dome. beneath that on the sidewalk in the driveway outside of those capitol steps is where this scene unfolded just about 15-20 minutes ago. we got an alert overhead here at the capitol, several beeps, and then a message that said there was an external security threat. everyone within the capitol complex needed to remain inside the building and not to go outside. we looked out the window towards the capitol dome and saw what you should probably be seeing right now either in live pictures or video that we sent in. there is a vehicle, a blue sedan that crashed into a barrier that is designed to stop any public vehicles from making their way to the toll steps where the capitol dome is, where the senate and the house chambers are inside. that car was crashed there. when i looked out the window, i saw an unidentified person lying on the ground that capitol the

stuart: hillary vaughn on capitol hill. stuart thank you, hillary.s morning. you say apple is cozying up to china. i agree but they have got to do that, they need the china business. they can't afford not to cozy up to china, right? >> we learned apple has two different standards for doing business. there is one standard that they have in the united states. there is a different standard they have when they are in china. you know what we have seen apple do is oppose conservative constitutional provisions, things that are like states setting the time, place, manner of elections, and conservative principles like voter i.d. but yet they refuse to stand up to the communist chinese and the human rights abuses or the genocide they're carrying out there in shinzhen province. stuart: what are you going to do about it? >> one of the things we'll continue to do about it is keep pressure on u.s. companies who relish having freedom, free people, free markets here in the united states but then they speak out against good, solid, constitutional policies and governa

good stuff hillary vaughn thanks for bringing to ugh on this program today we appreciate that.ernate ids, seems to me that the democrats don't want voter ids, but they're perfectly happy to see illegals get on a plane with no id. what going on i think it is deliberate. i think they are flooding this country deliberately what say you? >> yes. so stuart i think you're absolutely right so let's look at four things. one, they have intentionally opened the door to what's happening at the border. and you know it is intentional because they haven't taken a single step to slow that flow. that's one, two, at the same time they're putting two amnesty bills through the house they've already gone through the house sent over to senate and putting through an election bill hr1 that would sweep all of these illegals who come into contact with state agencies into the voter roles. so these things are connected, stuart, what you and i see it a crisis at the border. some in the left see as a voter registration line, and that's a real problem for america, especially given all of the other problems

hillary vaughn is reporting live at reagan national airport, hillary. >> the administration story of today who tells me that adult migrants leaving their custody are allowed to fly to meet up with family members or their sponsors. the federal government basically giving their blessing for the us adult migrants to book a flight and stay with family members out of state. the dhs does tell me that the federal government is not picking up the tab for these flights. spotted last week at the texas airport, adult migrants, some with children, from mcallen, texas, to houston and another flight from houston to newark, new jersey, the final destination. many of them have signs that said they do not speak english. to some of them do not have a proper i.d. either. tsa tells me they make an exception for circumstances like this telling me "in coordination with the dhs counterparts, they have acceptable alternate identification for youth and special circumstances at the checkpoint and maintains alternative methods for identification." but the kids tell us that that is a major national security loo

hillary vaughn has the very latest on all this. hi, hillary. >> reporter: hi, david.n by lobbying lawmakers here on capitol hill to crack down on the company. a new coalition of business groups representing thousands of mom and pop shops across the country say amazon is the biggest threat to their business saying this, quote: amazon's stranglehold over online commerce is one of the top threats facing independent businesses. congress must enact legislation to break up amazon along business lineses and establish standards of fair dealing for its online marketplace. the groups represent small or hardware stores, office suppliers, booksellers, grocers and others. they specifically want amazon to be forced to separate its amazon brand products from its online marketplace saying amazon is forcing them to compete side by side on line when amazon has an unfair advantage. they have access to data and pricing that helps them, they say, undercut their third party competitors. but amazon says that's not the case disbelieving fox business -- gives fox business this statement, quot

thank you very, very much, hillary vaughn on all of that.rograms and initiatives. for example, the biden plan to have $80 billion more in funding for the irs so they can go after you know, the tax retrieval i think could raise hundreds of billions of dollars. getting rid of a lot of loopholes she alluded to, limiting deductions, hiking taxes all sorts of other ways go beyond returning top rate to 39.6%, essentially doubling the capital gains rate, impact on all of this, with danielle dimartino booth back with us as is mike murphy. mike, looking at all of this, there is even the possibility some of it could be retroactive. that was the case in new jersey last year when they raised the surtax on millionaires, to be from beginning of the year. that was a surprise to a lot of new jersey filers who discovered that. i'm wondering if the same could apply here what would be the impact be? >> i hope not, neil. the impact would be bad, you know, it would be, it would hurt the overall economy. it would hurt the recovery. you know, it is easy to say you

hillary vaughn is with us. hillary, how a small business taking action against the mighty amazon?alition to lobby lawmakers on capitol hill to try to guide them to stricter antitrust laws that would result in amazon having to split its private brand business off of its online marketplace. of the coalition of small businesses across 12 different cities are banding together forming a coalition to lobby for these laws to be changed it. the businesses range from small hardware stores, office supplies, booksellers and grocers. they want federal legislation to prevent a dominant online marketplace like amazon from selling its own products in competition right alongside other sellers. the house antitrust subcommittee has talked to jeff bezos. he testified about antitrust issues and faced questions about whether or not amazon uses data from their site of popular products picking up steam to then make their own amazon brand. he says they have rules against that at the company, but cannot guarantee it will have never been violated. to create their own amazon back-- brand products but amazon

error regulation on infrastructure projects but that could cause some major delays, let's go to hillary vaughncould be a potential roadblock for the infrastructure renaissance that biden has planned to repair roads and build up bridges, under trump the national environmental policy act was changed so infrastructure projects could be improved faster and put a time limit on the environmental impact review and also change the laws of federal agencies that didn't have to consider the impact on climate change that a project would have and that was a game changer that they put in the mother market petroleum institute sounded under obama era environmental impact statements took on average six years to complete and cost around four-point to million dollars in delays and that's had a real-life impact on communities around the country putting major projects on hold here some examples according to the american investment group environmental permit reviews have stalled a $25 million airport improvement project in new mexico that has been delayed over two years in massachusetts even an offshore wind farm h

hillary vaughn joins us now from capitol hill. it? that's what republicans in congress were worried about because these payments are paid in advance by cutting family a check every month, that was supposed to be temporary. republicans were concerned this was paving the way for universal basic income if it became permanent and now democrats are trying to do just that, asking the white house in the next round of recovery package to make this advance payment child tax credit permanent. the effort is led by senator brown, he and 40 senate democrats wrote a letter to president biden asking him to solidify the child tax credit as here to stay in the tax foundation estimates doing that would cost $1.6 trillion over the next decade, but as the white house and democrats continue to try to sell this path stimulus package, the president continues even yesterday crediting the child tax credit for cutting the poverty rate by 40%, but we heard testimony from the irs commissioner and from congress who said it's a major challenge for them to figu
