we begin with white house correspondent peter doocy live from the north lawn. good evening, peter. >> good evening, bret. we spoke to senior administration officials today who tell us they don't think the rise in crime in big cities run by democratic politicians are because of democratic will will law enforcement and local leaders have been doing in those big cities isn't working. >> well, there is no one size fit all approach. >> peter: the white house knows they have got to do something to cut down on crime. >> from the president and the administration. >> peter: their attention is on big cities inviting guests from chicago, washington, d.c., and new york. >> other communities are waking up to alarm clocks, communities of black, brown and poor people are waking up to gunshots. >> eric adams, running for new york mayor as a democrat, recently railed against calls to defund the police made by democrats. >> do you think the priorities of national democrats may have been misplaced? >> >> yes, i do. i believe those priorities they really were misplaced. it's almost

peter doocy, thank you so much.get it out there. who is going to read a long document from the cdc? we'll report on it and give you the information os we can. they aren't even taking questions. it is not right. >> bill: it is our job to go through the articles to figure it out every morning and how confused are we? it's unbelievable. the cdc director will be on with bret later today in special report. some of the stuff we hear. "washington post" and "new york times." new strategy is needed on communication, that's a fact. give the trump team credit for what they did in the past in the briefing room every day 4:30 or 5:00 a whole lineup of people answering questions for two hours. this administration has not done that yet. any day. >> dana: cdc -- i think the white house deserves more from the cdc. the president gave a speech last night. they were supposed to follow up today and doing it with a piece of paper isn't good enough. now i will go onto this. the surge in covid cases creating problems along the southern bor

peter doocy just had an interesting exchange that we watched some of moments ago with jen psaki. oon. from the white house north lawn, the white house officials insist they're just pressuring facebook to remove misinformation about the vaccine concerning things like vaccines causing infertility. they say they are just flagging these posts based on publicly available trend monitoring information. they say they're not monitoing specific individuals. >> the concern should be the number of people dying because they're not getting the vaccine. young people, old people, kids, children. this is all being -- a lot of them are being impacted by misinformation. >> the big concern for a lot of people on facebook is now this big brother watching you. >> they're more concerned about that than pie dieing across the country because of a pandemic or misinformation is traveling on social media platforms. that feels unlikely to me. >> there's elected republicans in town that have been warning about private big tech social media companies remaining unregulated if they are going to coordinate with th

fox news correspondent peter doocy question madame psaki today earlier, what you got. >> we have a lotestions about the briefing from yesterday where the surgeon general came out to say new surgeon general warning something things that you eat, drink or smoke there is a new what about social media post, the white house thinks misinformation about covid-19 vaccines, post about the vaccine going to make you in hurdle that is obviously not true are the number one reason people are not getting vaccinated anymore. the press secretary made a point to say because of that their flogging post to facebook to cut down on it, i followed up today will. >> how long has he administration been spying on people's facebook profiles looking for disinformation. >> that's an inaccurate question which i would refute. >> peter, first of all, as you know were in regular touch with the range of media outlets, let me finish, as we are in regular touch with social media platforms, it's a publicly open information, people sharing information online just as you are all reporting information on your new station. >>

peter doocy in the press briefing today in the white house had a great question. he shade why is it that the federal government is asking vaccinated is americans to wear masks to stop the spread of covid-19 but at the same time federal agents are releasing covid-19 positive border crossers in small towns in texas? so if following the science is really where this administration is, its policy along the southern border is really in question. >> charles: shannon, i want to ask you about that. we've got to talk about this. a large part of this dark cloud over this is politics. feels like if you look across the media, there's a villainizing people in red states, villainizing registered republicans. when i look at some of these polls, for instance, 23% of independent voters say they won't take the vaccine. according to gallup, 31% of independents say they won't take the vaccine. so the finger pointing at a certain group of americans saying they're harming the rest of the nation, how much is that hurting the cause? >> yeah, i think that along with what is going on at the

>> bret: peter doocy live on the north lawn, peter, thank you. now let's bring in cdc director dr.e wolenski. of doctor, thanks much for making time for us today. >> good evening, bret. thanks for having me. >> bret: you heard those two reports and obviously there is concern about the messaging and what's come out. i want to put up a couple of full screens first. referenced in those reports. first is break through numbers. fully vaccinated americans. it's a real credit that 164 million plus have been vaccinated. of those we're told from your organization, that hospitalizations are at 6200. that's .0038% of fully vaccinated. and of those deaths are at 1263, .00077% fully vaccinated. so, break down these numbers and the concern about the vaccinated and the changes that you are making. >> yeah, thank you for raising that. so, i'm 164 million people fully vaccinated and that, i think, is a true success. and we still have a lot more work to do. i want to be very cautious about the interpretation that you just made with those 6200 cases. the cdc monitors break through infections in numer

we have peter doocy at the white house.begin with william in los angeles tonight with soaring gasoline prices. >> no matter where you shop. we are paying more. coming off an artificial covid low. the national price is only a quarter higher than the 10 year average. perception is reality and the bad news is it will get worse. >> this is ridiculous! i can't believe this. over $100 to fill my tank. >> gas prices reach a 7 year high and 48 million americans hit the road this weekend. >> the prices are too high as it is. it's not a good situation. >> the national average: $3.12. a dollar higher than a year ago. lowest in louisiana at $2.75. in los angeles they play $4.79 for regular. supply is not an issue. in some cities there is no gas. why? a shortage of truck drivers. >> what is going on is not a gas shortage. there is plenty of gas this summer. refineries are churning out record amounts of gasoline. the problem is getting it from the terminal to the station. >> hauling 10,000 gallons of fuel requires certification and train

white house correspondent peter doocy starts us off tonight live from the north lawn.

here's the exchange with peter doocy and jen psaki. >> is the administration going to follow up withistricts to make sure that the abolitionists teaching network material is not in lesson plans? >> just to be clear for the context, because i know you love context of what you're asking about here, what your referring to is a citation in a report of which there were 1,000 citations. so i'm quiet impressed. it was an error in a lengthy document to include this citation. this cite does not represent the administration's view and we don't endorse the recommendations of this group. i believe it's been removed or is in the process of being removed. >> john: fox news first contacted the department of education about this friday. we didn't hear boo about it until yesterday with our reporting on it. the white house backtracked, this is more than a citation. this was a link to the abolitionist's teaching web site. >> sandra: and it was up there for months as mike emanuel will tell us. he's going to have a live report on this coming up. that moves the story forward. it was up -- the link was up

peter doocy, live on the north lawn. peter, thank you.mentioned at the top, the world health organization did an about face over some of its earlier reporting about the origins of the coronavirus. this comes amid serious questions about whether the w.h.o. has been concealing the level of china's involvement and how much china has been influencing the w.h.o. here is correspondent benjamin hall. >> all eyes today were back on wuhan institute of virology stunning admission. >> there was pretty much a push to, you know, especially reduce one of the options like the lab theory and working in the lab. and lab accidents happen. it's common. >> acknowledging for the first time that the lab could have been the source of cody, he called on china to explain what was happening there at the time of the outbreak. but former white house chief of staff mark meadows said the w.h.o. can no longer be trusted. >> until you actually eliminate the leadership at the w.h.o., dr. tedros included, we should not be a member of that organization. >> it also emerged

peter doocy starts us off tonight from the north lawn. good evening, peter. >> peter: good evening, bret. president biden says the long-term effects of covid-19, so-called long covid will now be recognized as a disability by the federal government and that is as officials within the biden administration announced a new vaccination mandate on the entire va hospital system. veterans affairs is going to require all docs working in facilities have going to have to be vaccinated. >> jennifer did you know that explains whenever a veteran or step foot they deserve to know could we have done everything in our power to protect them from covid-19. covid-19 57 groups including the american medical urging vaccination for all healthcare workers and all state employees in california now have a choice. get vaccinated or wear a mask and get tested. >> individual's choice not to get vaccinated is now impacting the rest of us. >> in new york, workers need to prove vaccination or wear masks and get tested, too. >> in the city government employee does not wea

peter doocy is at the white house. he has more on what we just heard. peter? >> we were just at the other end in a handful of big cities from across the country. they were told by president biden to take money from the covid stimulus, the american rescue plan and start using it to hire more police. listen to this. >> supporting local law enforcement with federal support that they need. our strategy provides including funding for law enforcement through the american rescue plan for states, cities and to be able to here police and pay them overtime to advance community policing. >> that means that because administration officials we have spoken to think some of the crime might be driven by people having essentially -- by people that need it to be treated or met with social workers during the pandemic, the social workers are not able to do it. one of the biggest problems from the leaders that we heard from a handguns and one of the leaders we just talked to is the democratic candidate for mayor in new york, eric adams. >> things that we can to with the dollars th

an aggressive back and forth there between the white house spokesperson and peter doocy here. o facebook over issues that the administration, the folks are being misinformed. peter, now at the white house with us. that was quite a back and forth, peter. you cut to the core of the issue here. today's misinformation might be very accurate information later on. i think you were citing the origins of the virus and people that even took down posted about starting in a wuhan lab. having said that, where is this going? >> it's going to next couple months or however long the covid era lasts. officials here want social networks to take more responsibility for taking down misinformation. the example that they used are inaccurate do down. >> it is a message to platforms like facebook? >> they are killing people. the only pandemic we have is among the unvaccinated. and they are killing people. >> accused there by the president of killing people. facebook responded. they said, "we have partnered with authorities and researchers to take aggressive action against misinformation about covid-19

elizabeth: peter doocy it's good to see you think of for joining us, let's welcome back to the show texaso see you it looks like the political stunt backfired to a pr disaster, what do you say about that. >> absolutely turned into ae pr disaster they were invited and a fat cat paid their way appear in they look like they're living high they are crying wolf how put upon they are in their runaway slaves of the underground railroad, et cetera they did not wear masks on the private aircraft another super spreading they disobey their own rules they gave covid to the white house and nancy pelosi speakers office and there derelict in their duty, their deserters they were elected by texas constituents to go there in austin, not washington, d.c. and vote on all of the important topics and issues of the day and they fled the state which is absolutely prevented texas legislation from being passed and especially with a voter integrity bill where millions and millions of americans were so concerned about irregularities and anomalies done in the name of covid and they change in these various dates and

white house correspondent peter doocy has details tonight. >> the president made it sound simple. >> it's vaxxed or masked. >> get vaccines and get businesses open fully for good. >> i also want to thank everyone who has gotten the vaccine for doing your patriotic duty and helping us get on the path to independence day. >> and he bragged about how well things were going. >> thanks to our heroic vaccine effort, we have gained the upper hand against this virus. >> now vaccination efforts have stalled. >> i know folks are watching the number of cases rising again and wondering, quite frankly, what it means to them. >> it could mean trouble ahead for the economy if the unvaccinated don't change course according to some democrats. >> if we want to bring this pandemic under control and get our kids back in school and get the economy rolling again, everybody has to accept the personal responsibility to be vaccinated. >> so far the white house has not criticized the run away texas democrats who flew to d.c. maskless hosted multiple in person events, including with the vice president, and are

>> bret: peter doocy live in philadelphia. peter, thanks. stocks off today. the dow lost 107, the s&p 500 dropped 15. the nasdaq fell 56. one of the reasons possibly for the market drop consumer prices rose in june by almost a full percentage point. the most since august of 2008. rising food prices are forcing supermarkets to stockpile goods. and that has grocers warning about major supply chain problems. fox business correspondent libya has the latest tonight. good evening, lydia. >> good evening, bret. there a couple of reasons why grocers are stockpiling food here in yonkers, new york, they are trying to avoid supply chain issues. they are boosting purchases of goods brought from overseas like cheese and wine and frozen seafood. other wholesale like michigan based spartan nash they are stockpiling about 20 to 25% more groceries some suppliers of frozen meat and boxed foods they expect food prices to increase. food costs 2.4% more than it did a year ago. here is some of what we learned today from the consumer price index report, bacon up by 8.4% over a year

you have peter doocy saying will you denounce communism? where is the roaring, loud press corps behind peter doocy demanding an answer on that or censorship partnering with facebook to censor everyday americans. we keep hearing about these 12 americans with misinformation. why does the government have a list of them? you don't ask the press corps. you don't shout questions because they simply do not care. they take sides. >> sean: kayleigh mcenanye ari fleischer, thank you both. now we turn yet to another shocking example of america's two-tiered justice system. a man in florida, he willa' entr the u.s. capital during the january 6 riots. he was carrying a trump flag. he has now been sentenced to eight months in prison after a felony conviction according tooa the case, this individual did not assault anyone, did not destroy federal property, both prosecutors wanted him to serve 18 months in prison. okay. we spoke out loudly and very clearly that can't happen ever again in this country. that that can happen again ever. keep in my nearly all t

peter doocy, thank you. >> if you are a capitol police officer, you got orders.arts during the day on the house side in some parts on the senate. if a vaccinated staffer comes across on the outside without a mask you are order to arrest them but not on the senate. this is not the america we know and this is not pelosi's house, this is the people's house. >> julie: the republican lawmakers outraged at the return of the possibility of arrest for not complying and more than a dozen g.o.p. root reps went massless during two votes in open defiance of the capital recommendations. >> in reality the house has to wear them right down the hall and the u.s. and it doesn't have to wear the mask. it's preposterous. >> it's frustrating for us here and frustrating for the americans back home. >> we have a crisis with our border and we are playing footsie with mask mandates and the people's house. it's absolutely absurd with this body is doing. it's an embarrassment, a mockery, and the american people are fed up. >> julie: and things got ugly after house minority leader kevin mc

>> bret: peter doocy live on the north lawn. peter, thank you. we will talk about this with the panel and talk live with fox news contributor dr. marc siegel about all of this. big changes in just a bit. one of the capitol hill police officers responding to the january 6th riot is describing it as a medieval battlefield with hand-to-hand combat. emotional, powerful testimony today. the committee investigating that incident has begun. it's controversial probe amid intense criticism from republican leadership. congressional correspondent chad pergram has a wrap up of all today's testimony tonight from capitol hill. >> chilling testimony from police. >> they tortured me. [screams] >> officers thought they were going to die. >> they beat me. [screams] >> until officer michael fanone rioters and suffering a heart attack pleaded with his attackers. >> i yelled out that i had kids. >> officers say horrors of the riot haunt them. >> they continue to be a constant trauma for us literally every day. >> one officer thought there should be consequences for w

first, we go to peter doocy standing by at the white housekeeping track of, this seems to be changing now. peter, what do we know? >> sandra, we know now it's all different. the cdc said on a call earlier this hour that fully vaccinated people have a very low probability of becoming very sick with covid-19. but there's a better chance that they could carry this delta variant and pass it along to someone that is not been vaccinated. so now in high transmission areas in this country, they track it county by county and the counties with the highest transmission they want people wearing masks again regardless of vaccination status that affects people right now during the summer. once it's back to school, it affects everybody that has to go to a school. >> cdc recommends that everyone in k-12 schools wear a mask indoors including teachers, staff, students and visitors regardless of vaccination status. >> this is an about-face turn from what the president proudly proclaimed was possible as a result of the way he handled the pandemic. >> if you have been fully vaccinated, yo no longer need t

peter doocy, thanks very much. from "the washington examiner" and fox news contributor. i'm struck by the language being used around this issue. when you look at voter i.d., the majority of americans think that that is a reasonable idea. we've seen minorities push back on the idea that they're not able to get an i.d. we hear kamala harris, the vice president talking about the fact that some people in rural areas can't do a xerox and send in a copy to get it. what do you see going on here in the big picture? >> you know what is striking about this latest push for a voting rights bill from democrats is the seriousness of the language that they use. like the return of jim crow or jim crow on steroids. the unseriousness of some of the proposals that they're talking about. a lot of people on capitol hill view s-1, the for the people act, the bill the president is talking about, as a messaging bill. it's filled with progressive democratic wish list items, public financing of campaigns, national mail-in voting, voter harv

jackie: peter doocy, thank you so much for that.topic, brown university school of public health and dean, dr. shah. wonderful to see you tonight. as far as i'm concerned when listening to the debate the seems like a chicken or egg question. we're talking about putting masks back on people. we're not sure of the efficacy. if you're not wearing n95 mask there are debates how effective it is. 43.2% of all americans not vaccinated to get vaccines. the president said as peter mentioned there, we have to. how do we do that? >> yeah, first of all thank for having me here. there are two sets of issues i think are worthying about. the masks mandates or encouragement, that is testimony pour airyizing measure. we're seeing outbreaks be and cities and states are figuring out what to do to stop the spread and masks help. they're testimony pour rising. the long-term solution is getting people vaccinated. asking people what is holding them back. you will see employers and private businesses make decisions around mandates. i think we'll get there.

peter doocy is live at the white house.umbers are getting someone's attention. >> earlier today we spoke to some administration officials thinking crime is rising in big cities because maybe some people who needed a visit from a social worker couldn't get it for a couple of months during the pandemic. they do not think democratic policies in democratic-run cities are to blame for any of the stats like the ones that you just mentioned. but the democratic candidate for mayor in new york who is going to be here today isn't so sure. >> do you think the priorities of national democrats may have been misplaced? >> yes, i do. i believe those priorities they really were misplaced and it is almost insulting what we have witnessed over the last few years. >> the latest line from the white house is this. the administration's crime prevention strategy gives them a wide range of ways they can use to fight violent crime including hiring more police officers, investing in summer programs and job opportunities and other measures proven to

peter doocy of fox news asked that question in the white house briefing today, here's how the fight ininistration old to him. >> if the pandemic of vaccinated still then why do excellent people need to put the mask back on? >> just go back to this chart which i will handily .2 again, if you are vaccinated, it can save your life and i think the data shows this pandemic is killing, hospitalizing, making people very sick who are not vaccinated. that still continues to be the case regardless of what the massive guidance looks like. >> if the vaccines work which this sign says they do, then why do people who have the vaccine need to wear the mask? >> because the public health leaders in our administration has made the determination based on data that is a way to make sure they are protected, their loved ones are protected and that is an extra step given the transmissibility of the virus. >> tucker: of the vaccines work, the only people getting sick are the vaccinated but the vaccinated still have to wear masks? why is that? you just heard the answer. public health leaders in our administrat

bret. >> bret: peter doocy live on the north line. peter, thank you. let's bring in west virginia democrat senator joe manchin. tenet or, thank you for being here. >> good to be with you, bret, how are you? >> bret: i'm great. we want to talk about what peter just talked about about crime and the back-and-forth and all of that but i want to talk about the legislation that's coming up and that is this week there was a lot of back-and-forth about whether president biden was going to sign a bipartisan infrastructure bill if it didn't -- wasn't tied to a reconciliation bill much bigger down the road. there's no word that moderate democrats are saying that maybe that reconciliation bill can go forward but can only be $1 trillion or less. is that true? >> well, i don't know what the [indiscernible] law will be. first of all there was never doubt my mind the president biden didn't support the bipartisan infrastructure -- we will call the traditional infrastructure, roads, bridges, water, and all those different things that we have done. this is the greatest,

. >> it's outrageous to see her response in the white house talk to peter doocy and social media they other network centering as good a job as fox, what they're doing is advocating and what she saying we have a ministry of truth, working to decide what is true, what is and what you can say in what you can't on the public platforms, i would like to know who's in charge of making the decisions and the transparency, here's what's frightening most americans such young americans to understand the power of free speech, if you don't have free speech the way to express yourself is foundational principle of democracy we haven't taught her kids and right now you have liberals who are plotting censorship because republicans and conservatives who are getting censored they will laugh today but they'll realize what they participated in which is democracy. elizabeth: divided administration revealing it's been in regular contact with facebook to remove disinformation about covid-19 things like the vaccine can cause infertility that was one subject they came across the radar screen and remove more tha

we have to go to the white house press briefing, because peter doocy is asking questions on this. >>rd about updating the mass mandate, do you know if there is any talk here about updating guidance to start shunning businesses down and places to have vaccination rates? >> secretary psaki: no, there has not. those two things just for your public information purposes, one is that while we have seen, while we don't look at one week of data as an indication, you know, we talk about weekly averages, we did see larger numbers of unemployment claims in areas where there are lower vaccination rates. it was not enough data to draw a conclusion, i'm just noting it for all of you. i would note to that on the american rescue plan, the way that we design that is for the impact and assistance across the country to be long lasting. and it is early on. and from the past, components of that package to businesses and organizations that will last for months to come. >> and on crime, the intersection that was shot up last night, only a mile and a half from here, they had lunch this summer, what is your

white house correspondent peter doocy starts us off tonight live from the north lawn, good evening, peter. >> peter: good evening, bret. the president just confirmed he is waiting right now to hear back from a 25 person white house covid-19 advisory board about whether or not the guidance should be updated. federal guidance should be updated to ask people to wear masks even if they are vaccinated. >> going to be investigating every aspect of every change that could or might take place. ♪ ♪ >> every time i hear that i'm wondering when he is coming. [laughter] >> pete: the president hosted a large mostly maskless indoors report in "the washington post" that the biden administration may soon suggest masks for the vaccinated. >> the report on it was a little breathless. >> in philadelphia officials warn about the delta variant quote it means all of us going back to wearing masks in public. that's as vaccinated people develop mild symptoms despite what the president claimed. >> the various shots that people are getting now cover that. you are okay. you are not going to get covid if you have th

white house correspondent peter doocy starts us off tonight with a lot of news live from the north lawn. good evening, peter. >> peter: good evening, bret. the president is trying to use leftover covid relief money to pay people to get the shot. he thinks $100 per person is enough of an incentive. he is also now offering to reimburse small and medium size businesses for the time off employees need to get themselves and their families vaccinated while also trying to target the 12 and up crowd with a pop-up clinic in every school district. 4 million federal employees though don't get as much of a say if they don't get vaccinated they will lose out on opportunities to travel and isolated from vaccinated colleagues. >> every federal government employee will be asked to attest to their vaccination status. anyone who does not attest or is not vaccinated will be required to mask, no matter where they work. >> peter: indoors at the white house masks are required. same with the house of representatives. not on the senate side. so a group of republican lawmakers pressed inches across the imaginar

but first to the white house and peter doocy as the administration gets ready to make its next move on vaccines. what are we looking at, peter? >> we are looking at more moves, john. the guidance just keeps on changing. for example now president biden is saying we are not going back to shutdowns and markdowns but also said that you don't have to wear a mask anymore if you got vaccinated, that's different. back in december i asked him if he favored vaccination, making vaccines mandatory. he said no. but now at least for federal workers it is mandatory unless you want to submit yourself to regular testing and masking. listen to this. >> while no decision has been finalized i will say that the attestation of vaccination for federal employees isn't one option under strong consideration. so what we mean by that is confirming, which means confirming vaccination status or abiding by stringent covid-19 protocol like mandatory mask wearing, even a community is, not with high or a substantial spread regular testing. the one don't like >> and her actions, like look at this video. the president gl

[laughter] >> well, i would say, first of all, thank goodness for peter doocy.what biden's favorite ice cream flavor is. i'm sure the white house is aware of that because they're in touch with all the tech giants, and they have all the information, they can get whatever they want. we have a situation where the white house is very clearly directing facebook to remove things they don't like. and as peter points out in his question, they have been wrong before. facebook has been wrong in censoring information before. it's very tough to say no to the president, very tough to say no to the president's spokeswoman. so to say that facebook is sort of on its own and doing whatever it wants to do without direction from the white house is simply a lie. and every fascist has always had a great reason for why they want to shut down information, you know? it's always for your own good, it's always for the common good. i don't see anything really different here. dagen: well, jen psaki is essentially saying we're trampling on the first amendment, but you need to get onboard wi

peter doocy live at the white house. was the press secretary able to provide you any names?publicans who wanted to defund police. >> technically they think there are lots of names, trace. their argument is name any republican who voted against the american rescue plan, that covid stimulus package, $1.9 trillion and that's a republican who voted to defund the police. >> are there any examples of republicans, members of congress wanting to defund the police? >> i think most people would argue actions are more important than words, wouldn't you say? >> we asked a couple of different times. no specific names of republicans from the press secretary and can't find any republicans who said they voted against the stimulus package because they wanted to defund the police. we did find lots of republicans who said they thought the package was too big. had too much money for things not directly related to the pandemic recovery and relief but the white house does not think you can separate those two things because there was some money a fraction of the cost for police budgets. trace. >>

yesterday peter doocy asked jen psaki if she thinks the cuban people are protesting and leaving the country because they don't like communism. listen to how she responded. >> why are people leaving cuba or what is the process for them getting here? i can explain either of those. >> do you think people leaving cuba because they don't like communism? >> i think we've been clear we think people are leaving cuba or protesting in the streets as well because they are opposed to the oppression, the mismanagement of the government in the country. >> the answer is yes. simple one word answer, yes, the people are protesting because communism stinks and the biden administration is doing this word salad game where they are calling out the government as oppressive but not attacking the ideology of communism and some republicans think that is a calculated decision because they don't want to anger the progressive wing of the party. let's be clear the people in cuba are not chanting we want more vaccines but liberty, freedom, change to the system. >> what a change in our country. since we grew up, when we

peter doocy asked jane psaki about that yesterday. >> for how long has the administration on people'sebook profiles looking for vaccine misinformation? >> that was a loaded inaccurate question, our biggest concern here and i think it should be your biggest concern, number of people dying around the country because they are getting misinformation leading them to not take a vaccine. >> the concern for a lot of people on facebook is not now "big brother" watching you. >> they are more concerned about back then people dying across the country because of pandemic or misinformation traveling on social media? that feels unlikely, if you have the data to back that up, i am happy to look at it. jon: live at the white house with more on this, david. reporter: this group dominated the news cycle when they walked off the job in texas early last week. to be clear, this group did not meet with the president of the united states in person, nor did they speak to him, he's at no risk coming in contact with them. the group did meet with kamala harris a few days ago. we reached out to her office about t

there you are talking about defunding police so jen psaki at the white house was asked by peter doocy name a single republican anywhere who supports defunding police? here's the answer. >> i think most would argue actions are more important words which i think actions speak louder than words if you oppose funding for cops, something dramatically cut by prior administration and republicans supported menu vote against the bill for the cops program, we can let other people evaluate what that means, it doesn't require to speak to it or shout out, they speak for themselves. dan: actions do speak louder than words and the actions of democrat led cities have spoken matter in their words. we had occurred there words, calling for defunding police. here's an article by the left leaning publication talking about cities that defund police. they call it transferring money to the community, love the euphemisms. a pop quiz for everyone at home, we are not going to go through all for the interest of time, they all have one thing in common -- defund police and who are they run five? los angeles new yo

. >> tom: jen psaki was even worse because after she had a little fight with peter doocy because he wasngs were said by faucher, she said information is always evolving. that's why there's no such thing as misinformation. because information changes. you can't have misinformation because then it's whatever the people in power think at the time. we should repeat endlessly that we are allowed to post false information. that's the whole idea of the first amendment. not oh, this information is true. we fight about things all the time that we shouldn't be fighting about. we shouldn't save masks stop all that -- i'm not wearing it! i don't care if it stops the droplet. i'm not wearing it. so we should stop fighting about details and we should stop saying no, my information is true. i don't care if it's true. i'm going to post it. >> greg: you are crazy little man. we should start calling jen psaki miss information. how do i come up with this? what should facebook do? >> lauren: they are going to go with it. it's disappointing, u.s. government instead of focusing on things like expectations, s

peter doocy is there 20 the latest. hey're taking credit because they see the numbers, 150,000 more jobs created in may than expected as proof that the president's plan for a post pandemic economy are panning out already. they're also pouring over other numbers including stats that show that the cost of a fourth of july cookout is 16 cents less. >> so does the white house think that 16 cents off of a barbecue has impact on people's lives than a dollar more this time -- >> you don't have to like hot dogs. but a reduction of -- i will say that what we're most focused on is the fact that we created 3 million jobs since the president took office. >> many of the other questions at the briefing and the president's morning event were about afghanistan. the president pledged a full withdrawal. by the end of august, troops will be home. the president talked about it today when asked. he apparently reached his limit. >> i'm not going to answer any more questions on afghanistan. the fourth of july. i'm concerned that you guys are a
