larry: former energy secretary rick perry. rick, you're wonderful. thanks for giving us time today.white house that weaponized the justice department against parents and their kids in school. it all came from the white house. surprise-surprise. we'll talk about it with steve miller, next up on "kudlow." ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> i'm geraldo rivera, and i have been at fox news for 20 years. i remember when fox news started in the basement right in this building, and everybody said, no chance. no chance at all. we'll be a fringe product for a slice of the american people. geraldo i rivera, fox news. they took all of these people from all these different walks of life, put them together and allowed them to be themselves. that's what is unique. the bosses said, do your thing. get out there, report, get as close to the action as you possibly can, and you take it away. we trust you. this has been politicized. nobody here has censored me. nobody here has told he what to say. my point of view is often at odds with many people in this building. still they let me say it. this is the embodiment of the first

former texas governor and energy secretary rick perry. let's start with the border.ave been down to the border with you. we were at the rio grande. we had this under control under donald trump's policies. joe biden is not enforcing the laws. illegal immigrants get preferential treatments. what do you do when the president fails to enforce the law? >> it's a massive problem along the southern border and particularly for the state of texas. the message is clear for texas. we don't care about you. we want open borders. people on the left are driving this president's agenda and open borders is what he believes in. why don't -- we spent $3 billion in texas. texas taxpayer money to defend that border. take some of that money and hire every bus company across the country and these people that are coming in, they clearly said they are not going to follow our laws. and transport them to delaware across the blue states that think it's a great idea to have open borders. i think after about a week of that, you would have an uprising across the country and in washington, d.c. tel

to deliver partisan theater for prime time news. >> martha: joining me now, rick perry.ecretary under president trump. thanks for being here. when you watch these executives in front of congress as they say they're doing oversight on this issue of climate change, what do you think of what you saw in there today? >> well, this is political theater at its greatest. what the democrats are doing to constituents in a lot of places, take texas for instance. democrats running for re-election there along the border in heavy fossil fuel areas of the state. henry cuellar, lizzy fletcher. their constituents will be devastating in the democrats policy, if the green new deal goes into place. it will stifle the fossil fuel business. the radical democrats hate fossil fuels because they want to see a redistribution of money, they want to see marxism put in to place and capitalism fall. so the politics that's being played here may make for good tv but it will delve state the average american out there. heating fuel prices will go through the roof, gasoline prices are reaching record leve

thoughtful guy, rick perry was the governor of texas, this presidential race didn't go so well, but hey liberal education policy, a liberal immigration policy, and he opened up access to the university of texas system. it was not a liberal state, it was not a liberal republican party, but nothing like this. it unfortunately was an accurate epitome of what is happened pretty quickly and pretty recently, the real problems in texans 15 or 20 years ago, but that did not seem like the way things were going, texas is now a shorthand that's very very revealing, and for anyone who cares about a older conservative kind of republicanism, very depressing. >> i agree, well it wasn't quite portlandia, it wasn't quite business at the either. to our guest tonight, press it faster victoria soto, and bill crystal, thanks for coming on and taking our questions. coming up for us, his organization argues it's time to choose, democracy or trump. because, they argue, you can't have both. rick wilson of the lincoln project, joins us live next. project, joins us live next. dog barks you're right bunker, the m

. >> jesse: with me now, former energy secretary and texas governor rick perry. all right, secretary, you remember 2014, sky high gasoline prices, you know the energy market, that just crushed barack obama. they lost the senate because of that. are you seeing similar things here in the country? >> yeah, and jesse, by the way, stephen miller is just absolutely a stunning individual when it comes to really being able to point out exactly what the problem is. if the guy is a genius. but here is the way i see the real problem in this country today, is that you have an administration that doesn't know how to govern, and i go back to the obama administration, a person who had been in the senate for a short period of time, never run anything, never managed anything, and i think we are seeing a replay of that with the biden administration. they -- there's four simple tenants when you talk about governing. one is you can't overtax, you can't over regulate, you've got to have a legal system that doesn't allow for over suing, and you've got to have a skilled workforce, whic

rick perry to ernie momise told him we will need.o i think he is just going to find the sweet spot that he always looks for. he'll find something that lets americans invest in clean energy but also protects the workers that are in west virginia, pennsylvania, ohio, and all over the country. he's working well with the president and he's going to find a way to cut a deal because that's what he wants to do. . >> the other moderate is kyrsten sinema of arizona. her issue right now seems to be how you pay for the bill. she is opposed to an increase in corporate taxes. that is a big part of this, mark. how do democrats pay for this bill if they don't pay for this bill? . >> well, i think it's important the pay fors are on the table and it's clear how they are being paid for. we have had too much debt driven up for too long by republicans ironically. we have been talking about this months and months and months. is it now that we understand what the bright lines are? we will have transformation for society. and it was going to pass a long ti

rick perry was the governor of texas. people could have their own opinions about him. up access to the university of texas system. you know, it was not a liberal state. it was not a liberal republican party, but nothing like this. it really is a good -- unfortunately accurate i guess you would say -- epitome of what has happened pretty quickly and pretty recently. there were problems in texas 15, 20 years ago but that is not the way things are going. texas is kind of shorthand, that's kind of very, very revealing. and anyone who cares about an older conservative -- older kind of republicanism and conservatism, very depressing. >> i agree. while it wasn't quite portlandia, it wasn't mississippi either. always thank you for coming on and taking our questions. >>> coming up for us, his organization argues it's time to choose democracy or trump because they argue you can't have both. rick wilson of the lincoln project joins us live next. ♪ ♪ ♪ hey google. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ like many people with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or crohn's disease, i was there. be right back.

in 2013, then governor rick perry signed into law a sweeping abortion bill that, quote, required abortionrgical centers. those parts of the law were actually struck down by the supreme court nearly three years later. even that victory came with losses. as the texas tribune puts it, by that time, the number of abortion clinics in texas has halved to 19. the story for the fight for the right of abortion is a violent one. doctors have been killed by violent anti-abortion extremists in the past, and clinics are picketed by protesters who harass patients and workers alike. america is not an easy or welcoming place for abortion providers, and all of the different factors discourage doctors from providing abortion care. while three out of four had a patient who wanted to end a pregnancy in the past year, fewer than one in four were willing and able to perform the abortion themselves. we're focusing today on doctors and clinics. don't be mistaken, their rights are absolutely linked to women's rights. when you take away the clinics, you're taking away choices from women that can often have dire co

rick perry would have considered these laws for be wildly extreme let alone your former boss.ho i saw last night. but it is a crazy time down here. i love texas and texans. and there are a large number of texans who are discombobulated, disconcerted, upset, baffled, angry that their chosen representatives behaving this way that doesn't reflect the vote of the majority of texans. and so you are starting to see them lose support. i wouldn't say crater, but they look vulnerable. and that is all part of the story here. incredibly fascinating and scary. >> part of the reason that they are cratering, and i think that they are, i think that they are held up by these extreme factions, is this extreme excrement isn't popular. overturning 85% of all abortions in texas doesn't have the majority support among republicans. letting kids die by banning mask mandates is not popular and that state had one of the worst covid crises of the delta variant. and the voting restrictions, there is definitive reporting on how hard it already was to vote in texas. these things aren't popular. so they se
