(applause). >> stephen: thank you my friends, thank you, thank you, thank you. thank you. (cheers and applause). >> stephen: okay. hey, everybody. welcome one and all to the late show. i'm your host, coco show. happy monday. it's the first of august. typically, a month when the news slows down. americans go on vacation, congress gears up for recess, and wolf blitzer hits the situation hammock. and that slow news may explain why today's top headline is joe biden tested positive again for coronavirus. that's right! extra! extra! man never really that sick, still technically sick. last week, biden tested negative, now he's positive again. experts say he's likely experiencing paxlovid 'rebound.' wow, getting covid twice in a row 'cuz you took paxlovid? who could've seen this coming? happened to me. happened to m

biden's energy secretary, jennifer granholm, is pitching low income americans to buy solar panels toou can get your home entirely weatherized through the expansion from the bipartisan infrastructure laws. significant expansion. you don't have to pay for anything. if you want heat pumps, insulation, new windows, that is covered. if you are moderate income, today you can get 30% off the price of solar panels. those solar panels can be financed so you don't have to have the big outlay at the front. it is a significant incentive. >> carley: kennedy, solar panel installation costs between $15,000 and $25,000 on average. you're still paying up to what, $17,000? during a time of record high inflation, help the biden administration with the of wisdom. >> kennedy: it's interesting because we have this crony capitalism here. obviously once again this administration didn't learn the failures of the obama administration. how many are we going to have, how much corruption really have from these companies that will find this federal money and do god knows what with it? and how on earth -- people d

energy secretary jennifer granholm. secretary welcome back to fox news sunday. >> thanks so much.you have said in recent weeks new hope gas prices will continue to fall. but now nbc is reporting this morning and i am quoting here, behind the word prices could rise again as they keep looking for ways to get more oil on the market. given the issues with refinery capacity and the war in ukraine, can you give us, secretary, any more certainty that prices will keep falling? >> yes, juno gasoline comes from oil, oil is traded on a global market. we are at the whim, if you will of what happens global effort however, this president has moved in dramatic ways to increase supply by releasing 1 million barrels per day from our strategic petroleum reserve as well as calling on our domestic producers as well as international producers. we will be at record amounts of production next year. all of that is to say our energy information administration has projected by the fourth quarter gas prices will be around $3.87 on average for today there about $3.78 today there 3090 cents. they all and ever

joining us now is energy secretary jennifer granholm. great to see you, secretary.e this decline in prices, and this warning from aaa? >> a big piece of this is the fact the president has been leasing through our strategic petroleum reserves a million barrels a day to help stabilize prices. this is going to go on for six months, it already started. so that's one piece of things. he's called for an increase in production, both at home and abroad, and we have started to see more production come online. just remember, the reason for this surge, though, is, yes, coming out of covid, but also because when putin invaded russia, of course, putin invaded ukraine, ukraine is -- russia is one of the largest exporters of oil, and all these countries, like the united states, canada, eu, said we're not going to take russian oil, that pulled all those barrels off the market so supply and demand were way out of match. so the president tried to increase supply all at the same time as accelerating our movements to clean energy, which is why -- this whole circumstance is really a foo

cheryl: that was energy secretary jennifer granholm yesterday, telling struggling americans if you wantnergy costs just give your home an energy efficient makeover and for middle class americans bank on a discount on solar panels through you the democrats massive tax and spend law. she got skewered on social media yesterday, people saying she is out of touch. dagen: did she encourage people to take on debt to install solar panels in her house? did she do that. i'm going to do what she did when she was asked what the granholm plan is to increase oil production in the country. [laughter] i would laugh if it wasn't so hideous, what she said. by the way, this is admission that this act doesn't fight inflation. it foments and juices it and fuels it. let me explain really quickly. this bill subsidizes the purchase of goods and services, of goods in particular, she's talking about buying solar panels, to encourage people to spend money that they otherwise shouldn't. you're giving them a discount but you're rewarding the purchase of more stuff that you would of not normally buy. that's inflatio

energy secretary jennifer granholm, secretary granholm, welcome back to the sunday show. >> great, thankprovisions that the president originally wanted. but how much of an impact will be inflation reduction act have in combatting climate change? >> well, i mean you just read that right. 40% reduction in carbon pollution by 2030, 40 plus, depending on which study. you then combine that with the bipartisan infrastructure act investments, that is another 62 billion dollars in climate, which was already passed, you know, in november of last year. wow, it is the biggest investment in addressing climate change in our nation's history. of course on top, the president's on infrastructure, and really as you guys have been saying, as we have all been staying, it's really a b f the. >> yes, that technical terminology. >> it's a new technical phrase, yes. >> yes the bfd of the i.r.a. in the usa. in all seriousness, inflation reduction act would add approximately 912,000 jobs a year over the next decade. a lot of them being jobs in the climate sphere. how much of this will impact job growth, during e

s. energy secretary jennifer granholm has instructed the nation's top refiners, including exxon shell, b, p, and chevron, to refrain from exporting fuel as time went, americas european allies are in deep need, given the historic level of u. s. refined product exports. i again urge you to focus in the near term on building inventories in the united states, rather than selling down current stocks and further increasing exports. granholm sighted quote, historically low inventory levels of gasoline and diesel in parts of the country as the justification for looking out for america's interests. first. the last thing that biden and the democratic party need right now heading into the november mid term elections is a fuel shortage. that risks handing victory to the republicans. brussels was led straight down the garden path by washington and sanctioning its own cheap gas supply from russia. recalled back on june 27th, that the e u and the white house issued a joint statement saying that they were quote, working together to find ways to further reduce rushers, energy derived revenues in the c

we have jennifer granholm coming in a second.ia theresa makes a point about, joe biden loves the senate and he wanted to be involved in a lot of these negotiations. and i think the most extraordinary act of political discipline that i've seen biden enact in a long time is when he basically said i'm going to back off this spring. i'm not going to try to run these negotiations. i'm going to let chuck schumer and joe manchin get down to business, and that turned out -- i mean, for biden to basically step away from a thing he loves to do, be in the middle of the deal, i think there was a degree of political discipline and wisdom in that move that is easy to overlook, but it's genuine and helped get this thing done. >> discipline is not a word we've tended to associate with joe biden over the years, and a willingness to minimize his own role, not to be out front, and i think you're right. again, he showed a tremendous amount of patience, and i think maria theresa's point is really well taken. this is good news for our governing instit

the lines from jennifer granholm here they feel like something out of veep.ut do they know about the coupon they can use to slap some chinese made piece of hardware on top of their roofs and maybe save a few cents when they are trying to charge their phone with a power of the sun? i mean, that's just ridiculous. it's so out of touch. it's absurd. people complaining about not being able to do they know about the coupons for poor ridge? this is absolutely out of touch and why this administration is really swirling the drain in so many different respects. >> katie: telling americans to take on more debt for solar panels in a time when we are in recession is quite remarkable. ben, thank you so much for joining us this morning. great to see you. >> great to be with you, katie. >> katie: this week marks one year since 1 u.s. members were killed in kabul. fox news contributor and former secretary of state mike pompeo joins us live to remember the american heroes and reflect on the fallout from biden's afghanistan withdrawal. >> carley: we are back with headlines, a

in this private letter obtained by fox news, energy secretary jennifer granholm calls on major u.s. focus in the near term on building inventories in the united states, rather than selling down current stocks and further increasing exports. granholm argues the u.s. needs to prepare for hurricane season which can disrupt oil production in the gulf. former energy secretary rick perry doesn't buy it. >> that's what the strategic petroleum reserve was set up for, those types of natural disasters. so they're talking out of both sides you have their mouth which is nothing new. >> news couldn't come at a worse time. u.k. regulators just announced british households will see energy bills spike by 80%. partly due to decreased imports of russian oil. >> look, i understand there is an election coming in three months from now and i understand that they don't want any short falls. they want to keep prices down. >> u.s. oil and gas association president tim stuart says the move is putting politics over our allies. >> it's hypocritical to be promising to our european allies we will do everything w

this letter was sent by energy secretary jennifer granholm to major u.s.up domestic supplies ahead of hurricane season. now, in that letter -- which, by the way, ashley, has not been made public by the administration -- granholm writes this: given the historic level of u.s.-refined product exports, i again urge you to focus in the near term on building inventories in the united states rather than selling down current stocks and nurse increasingers -- further increasing exports. warning move would hurt our european allies as energy bills are about to skyrocket by 80%. this could also raise global oil prices. >> we have to remember that we operate in a world energy market. prices are set by the world market, not just the domestic market. so any restrictions on production or on exports from the united states actually increase prices on american consumers. >> reporter: meanwhile, wyoming senator john barrasso, ranking member of the senate energy and natural resources committee, is also weighing in. he told me this: americaing is stronger as a nation when we ar
