the washington examiner, robert redfield says covid-19 most likely came from the wuhan lab. from there reporting, the chinese government worked investigations into the origins of the virus which has killed 2.7 million people worldwide. dr. robert redfield, the director for the centers of disease control and prevention under former president donald trump, said covid-19 likely originated through an accidental escape from the wuhan institute of virology. joining us on the phone this morning is a reporter with the washington examiner who reports on the justice department. jerry donley b, what evidence does dr. redfield have of this? guest: much of the evidence would be circumstantial evidence but there is some circumstantial evidence that it would have come from an accidental escape from the wuhan institute of virology. we know from state department cable back in 2018 that the u.s. was concerned about biosafety. they lacked standards for a level 4 lab dealing with highly contagious and dangerous viruses. and the state department released a declassified stat sheet in mid-january

joe simonson from "the washington examiner" broke this story.tucker. >> tucker: a lot of stories floating around this struck me as particularly ridiculous. tell me some of the terms no longer allowed at cigna. >> any sort of gender language calling your mother your mother. calling your girlfriend your girlfriend. calling your wife your wife. employees there are suggested not to use that kind of language. you mentioned brown bag lunch. laat have. erbotin. hay birthday party you can't say hip hip hooray. >> tucker: why? >> i graduated from a it college not too long ago and this was all new to me. a lot of it was also struck me and i think will strike a lot of your viewers and certainly struck employees at cigna much more sinister than something you can just laugh off. you mention this idea ofca religious privilege there were hr training sessions talking about this idea of religious privilege which is something where if you, excuse me, if religious privilege if you are a christian society confers to you some sort of benefit that nonreligious people

selina zito from "the washington examiner." great to have you back on this program. you listened to what the secretary had to say there. given the work that you've done in the field and talking to people across the country, what would you say? >> the biggest concern not just for coal miners and people that work in the shale industry, the oil industry, what happens in that gap between the point where they shut the jobs down, they shut the pipeline down, stop fracking on federal lands and that next job, that green job? does it relocate them out of their family, away from their family? that impacts communities and school districts and senior centers and community centers and parks. all of those things lose their fundings because those jobs go away. so there's a big gap that nobody is able to say, hey, this is where your job is. a lot of these people are -- have lived in their areas for multiple generations, somerset county, westmoreland county, all of these coal centers in west virginia and ohio. they're rooted to their community. they don't want to leave. this is -- >>

let's discuss renewed calls with washington examiner selling the.lay something vice president harris said because so many people come forward are saying gun rights advocates, none of the laws that have been passed, nothing being proposed would have stopped this particular shooter. is with the vice president says about that idea. >> every time there is a slaughter, a mass shooting, someone who does not want to be accountable for what we need to do says that wouldn't have prevented this. it is time for congress to act, stop with the false choices. this is not about getting rid of the second amendment. >> your reaction to the vice president's comments? >> she's having this sort of political reaction to the horrible events that happened in boulder and this is exactly what the police officer's family is saying please don't do that. this is what happens anytime there's a tragic event with a gun shooting, and the gun becomes a symbol of something that needs to be regulated or changed and that has to be done through congress or executive order. as american

our panel early tonight, byron york, chief political correspondent of the "washington examiner," trey gowdy, former congressman from south carolina. let me start with you, i want to play this montage. we heard a little bit of it in peter's piece about the filibuster, specifically. it's really the furthest that this president has gone and talking about it. to take a listen. >> people got tired of talking and tired of collapsing. filibusters broke down and were able to break the filibuster and get a vote. if we can end it with 51, we will have no problem. it's not my expertise and what the parliamentary rules and talk to get there are, but her preoccupation with the filibuster is totally legitimate. >> president barack obama says the filibuster was a relic of the jim crow era, do you agree? >> yes. let's figure out how we can get this done. let's move in the direction of significantly changing the abusive filibuster rule. speak a few things, there's a lot in there, once you start calling it the relic of jim crow era, essentially calling it racist, kind of boxes yourself and that you're

. >> shannon: so, beckett adams of the "washington examiner" said this. "unsurprisingly, the useless questions came mostly from the same people who build themselves during the trump era as no-nonsense seekers of truth, go figure." kevin, what did you make of the questioning today? >> yeah, shannon, i was kind of disappointed with the questioning. the number one issue for americans is covid, and secondly, the economy. zero questions focused on either of those things, especially with the president's speech at the outset saying we are going to put 200 shots -- 200 million shots in the arms of americans by the first hundred days. zero questions about covid, questions about whether he was going to run again, whether kamala harris is going to run again, with him on that ticket, questions about the border which is important, but again, there was no diversity in terms of the kind of questioning, with so much of a focus on both immigration and the filibuster. we should have covered a lot more ground, and it is a disappointment to see a lot of the reporters just fo

joining us on the phone this morning is a reporter with the washington examiner who reports on the justice department. jerry donley b, what evidence does dr. redfield have of this? guest: much of the evidence would be circumstantial evidence but there is some circumstantial evidence that it would have come from an accidental escape from the wuhan institute of virology. we know from state department cable back in 2018 that the u.s. was co

audience recognizes that the drums of war are beating insistently in washington you have the washington examiner which is a conservative publication which has been running a series about a war which i know you have changed the readers so it's a well known so-called defense intellectual who's written a novel laying out a scenario whereby united states can defeat china and war so this is a very serious situation and i'm disappointed that mr biden who oftentimes refers to his tenure as head of the senate foreign relations committee and his alleged mastery of foreign policy has managed to insult leaders and has also managed to threaten sanctions against not only germany because of its importing of natural gas from russia but threatening sanctions against india because it supposedly plans to buy defense materiel from russia even though mr biden and the u.s. will be relying upon india as part of this and circle meant plan against china also i think that the most worrisome aspect of this and coming by the ministration is foreign policy and let's hope that he can improve all right author and historian g

emily your recent op ed in the washington examiner sheds light on systemic inequality in education and highly problematic comments made by professor thain to feller's instead of calling for canceling. sellars you question whether her comments were extensions of racist patterns and practices or if she was articulating a fairly typical view of black people which do you think it is and is one worse than the other. i really don't know but i'll tell you who does know the university if there is let's say just we were pushing this to the logical conclusion that the professor is races and for my personal not from my perspective if you just deal with social theory we know that red raised is that has to men and felt manifests itself in some way so if she is a race is then there means that there are patterns in practice is that she implement it as a 20 year professor at georgetown university law that one impacted black students into the university and sell chose to ignore so i don't know if you know for me she wasn't marking black students she really sounds it sounded like a lot of conversations

washington examiner, senior political columnist and american institute resident fellow, quite a fellow it's not getting any better for andrew cuomo. when the press loses track of the accusers as they come forward, i think he's in a bad position here but now it's interesting because the victims of these nursing home patients who died when they were forced to cohabitate with covid positive patients, they are think the government should forfeit his book money to them or at least a fund for these families. what are you hearing? >> it's all part of what's so galling about it, he not only was so horrific uncovered but he decided to declare himself a hero and so many of our colleagues in the media went along with that. similarly, he's acted as a feminist hero for women while any one of these six stories is true, he's the opposite. i have a colleague, an examiner who says when the second one came out, there's never to women, there's zero, one 13. the democrat role as we go back to al franken, the number eight they start calling on him to resign. kennedy: they started up. democrats in new york,

a reporter from the "washington examiner" tried to get to george floyd square to find out what it happenorter. but he couldn't, he was informed that no white people were allowed in. that is a snapshot of the equity that george floyd's death has been used to justify. no fault of george floyd, but that is what happened. they suck at reason we are going to assess what exactly happened to george floyd is that it's likely that derek shoaf and won't receive fair trial. now, you may not care, but you should care. that should matter to you regardless of who you voted for. every american deserves a fair trial. period. that's the whole point of this country. equal justice under the law. there is no other point. but will chauvin have a fair trial? they've been staring down national troops. they shut down the streets outside the courthouse on monday. "we need justice" said the people. "justice by any means necessary." the community will burn because we will burn it. it's like something from mississippi in the 1920s. where is the justice department in the middle of all this? where is the so-called ci

will: cigna employee told "the washington examiner" in that story given the hiring practices they have in place where white male candidates are blocked. i have to say yes there is obvious discrimination at the company. now, in response to this senator marco rubio has said the following you have to wonder how a corporate culture so consumed by dividing americans can effectively serve our nation and its people. it is grotesque and unamerican. grotesque is the beginning of the description of what we are seeing go on in corporate america and in american culture at large right now we are tempted, i think and i have read this in several stories describe this as political correctness. it's not political correctness. what we have to describe it as is what it is segregation, modern day bull conner. it's modern day jim crow to define each other to superficial characteristics and divide us and hire us and then separate us is nothing short of modern day segregation and modern day racism. no matter what you call it northern day racism comes to you in the guise of anti-racism and we have to start ad

reporter for the washington examiner tried to get to george floyd square to find out what happened heouldn't, he was informed no white people were allowed in. so that is a snapshot of the equity that george floyd's deat has been used to. this second reason we're going to assess what exactly happened to george floyd is that it's likely that derek chauvin won't receive a fair trial. you not you may not care, but you should care. that should matter to you, ever american deserves a fair trial. that is the whole point of this country, equal justice under th law, there is no other point. but will chauvin have a fair trial? hundreds of activists have been steering down national guard troops outside the courthouse i minneapolis all week they shut down streets outside the courthouse on monday. we need justice, justice by any means necessary. in other words if you vote to acquit, the community will burn because we will burn its. it's like something from mississippi in the 1920s. where is the justice department and all of this? where is the so-called civil rights division? to protect the civil r

washington examiner says black lives matter and antifa allied activists shutdown several streets surrounding the courthouse for several hours activists chanted and marched up and down blocks in minneapolis calling for justice and a guilty verdict against chauvin. those who don't like the way this is being set up, others -- they were peaceful today but wants to be heard and they say justice will only be a conviction. >> regardless what you think of the case there is a trial. facts are going to -- we have a justice system in this country, we don't judge somebody however you look at the situation guilty before any facts are tried before a court and jury. what we have is we want a conviction. as to the people in minneapolis or any other city that suffered distraction, violence, looting, people being killed, residents want police protection. they don't care about this ridiculous narrative that is completely false. they want police protection and get their elected officials are asking to defund the police or blaming it on phantom white supremacy movement. we need to protect our citizens. we need l

the "washington examiner" reporting and we saw this when we were there, makeshift barriers and gatesge floyd square as of sunday evening. no white people were allowed to access the area by local activists of a suppose it concern for the healing of the community. won has already been gunned down in the occupied zone is what they are calling it and police were met with some interference when they showed up to investigate the shooting. joining me now is victor davis hanson, hoover institution senior fellow. victor, it seems -- i was there and it was quiet when i was there but they were barricades. there was lots of tables and memorials and so forth. a lot of graffiti saying f the police and that kind of stuff as well but why should we be tolerating another autonomous zone? >> because there's a threat of violence and that overshadow the trial itself. all americans believe that no person who was unarmed, even if they are passably resistant should die in police custody. the prosecution will show that eight minute video again. minute one, two, three, if he stopped he would be alive. the def

host: you can follow more of jerry dunleavy's report on the washington examiner website.ry, thank you very much. guest: thanks for having me on. host: back to your cause. are you concerned about a covid-19 spike this spring? allen in michigan, good morning. caller: thank you for taking my call. i just wanted to relay something that happened to me about three or four weeks ago. as i rolled up to a traffic light, i started to smell cigarette smoke and i couldn't figure out why because i don't smoke. as i got to the traffic light i smelled it even longer and i looked over at the vehicle next to me and the guy was smoking in the vehicle next to me on a very cold, still morning. within 10 seconds of me arriving at the traffic light i could smell his cigarette smoke. so if you think that wearing a mask and social distancing is going to get rid of that, he was in a sealed vehicle, i was in a sealed vehicle and i could still smell his cigarette smoke. guess what, if smoke can travel like that, so can the virus. host: are you concerned? caller: not at all because i'm not going to

congressman ceo of the power and occlusion capital, byron york, chief political respondent of the "washington examinerretty much every network, every media outlet is now covering this. it did not start out that way but it is now. your thoughts on where we are and where the administration is? speak i used to have lunch with a mutual friend about once a month and he would often say become cynical yet? not yet but it's tempting. it's crazy. this guy says the border is closed and people are coming across and there they are. at least the media now being offended that they can travel can see and take pictures is paying attention to it. it is an outrage. i was trying to get context for this and i went back to my books. the president of slovakia said the lies when it's a whole program of lies, it always proceeds from the ideology at the bottom. the ideology is a straitjacket and if you believe certain things it absolutely cannot be refuted by the facts then you will build the lies on top of them. that's what's happened here. it's really outrageous, but i think sunlight is the best disinfectant in the truth is

mara lassen, national correspondent, national public radio, and chief correspondent of the "washington examinerthe administration's actions to deal with it? >> well, they are calling it a challenge. maybe we can agree on a better term. a -- of a mess. it took him a while with too many fits and starts and problems. but donald trump and his administration eventually got that border situation under pretty good control under a combination of the law, agreements with the neighboring countries to hold back some of these immigrants and have them apply for asylum from their countries and so on. and biden came in and basically blew it all up and always got a mess on our hands, entirely predictable consequence of a kind of willy-nilly set of executive actions, undoing actions taken by the previous administration. for all political purposes, mr. biden and his team. we won more than 1400 of these kids have now been captured over72 hours. they are now looking at facilities around the country. >> yep. they've got to find a place to put them. they wanted to reunite them with family members. they wanted to see

according to the washington examiner the murder rate in virtually every city in the united states iss highest levels in more than two decades. that's people being killed. last year there were more homicides in the united states than any year since 1998. how did that happen? oh, blm. thanks, blm. blm did this too us. well people funding them were posturing how great they are and this is going to make america more equitable, poor people were paying the price with their lives. and no one has admitted. this and no one ask is accepting responsibility for it and no one has been punished for it. irony of irony, few places are more dangerous than the actual physical place where george died in minneapolis. a place we visited a couple months ago because we just couldn't resist. what does it look like? we will show you. keep in mind, minneapolis was the first city in this country to defund the police. what happened next? watch. >> well, it's almost daily down there. it has become totally unsafe. >> jamar nelson is the spokesperson for cup foods, the market that called police on george floyd for

. >> harris: op-ed in the "washington examiner" ripping president biden as the human trafficking president more migrants head toward the border having heard biden promise to take every one of them in, the more human trafficking there is, biden's presidency is the best thing to happen to human traffickers in at least four years. texas attorney general ken paxton joins me now. every time we get together this situation gets a lot worse. my question for you is how much evidence does the biden administration need when you see chunks of wallop en where they didn't finish the wall, people flooding through and border agents saying, attorney general, they are so overwhelmed they see 39,000 illegally gained access to our country recently. they can't catch them all. >> it is sad but doesn't seem like evidence matters. they adopted the policy of open borders and sticking with it despite the consequences of the spread of covid, human trafficking, increase in drug trafficking, increase of crime and just general chaos as laura ingraham mentioned. you have all these kids caged up that shouldn't be here. >

let's get the read from democratic strategist, the washing to -- washington examiner's kayly mcgee.ds like scary stuff. >> it would be like driving down a toll road all the time. there's very few electric vehicles on the road. so every single driver in america would be subject to this tax. and it's just impractical to claim that taxing people is going to push them towards electric vehicles. in a lot of cases, it's going to do the opposite. if it was easy to own an electric vehicle, my guess is there would be more of them on the road. a lot of cases it's unnecessary and it's hard to maintain. they're expensive. so this is not the right way to go about pushing alternatives. so for me, if you put something in my car, once it's electrified, we know that people -- that lower income, middle income folks are the ones that drive the furthest to work. again, i think it's going to end up punishing people that could afford it the least. >> correct. i mean, i don't throw the government out of line when it comes to them finding out how to do an electric charge tax. that would come years later as

while he might've actually been covering up those astounding numbers hears me now washington examinerl calmness american enterprise institute fellow, tim carney is back. so it is not getting any better for end of cuomo when depressed starts losing track of the accusers as they come forward for think is in a very bad position here. but now it is interesting because the victims of these nursing home patients who died when they were forced to cohabitate with covid positive patients there seen the governor should forfeit his book money to them or at least a fund for these families, what are you hearing? >> it is always part of galling about it. that he was not only so horrific on covid, but that he decided he could declare himself a hero on it. and so many of our colleagues, kennedy in the media would lug with that act. similarly he has acted as a feminist and a hero for women while any one of these stories is true is the exact opposite bird i have a colleague back it the examiner's of the second one came out it's never too women it's bureau, one or 13. and the democrat rule if we go back

after these documents and text messages came out of course revealed today in the washington examiner,haven't been able to get mcgee on the phone yet. so there seems to be a lot of layers of this story to peel back >> yeah. let me jump in and for context -- for context, let me play a little bit of that other exchange with tucker last night. >> actually, you and i went to dinner about two years ago your wife was there and i brought a friend of mine you'll remember her. and she was actually threatened by the fbi, told that if she wouldn't cop to the fact that somehow i was involved in some pay for play scheme that she could face trouble. >> i don't remember the woman you are speaking of or the context at all, honestly >> so he seems to be flailing around what is the actual charge he faces in the doj probe >> what was that question before please. >> you want me to repeat what does he actually face what does he face in the doj probe as best you understand >> a sexual relationship with an underage girl who allegedly paid to travel with him these are allegations that matt gaetz has denied, b

the "washington examiner" nailed it.eaking likely with the same anonymous source. it is like tracing cases of food poisoning to a single batch of rancid potato salad. just as easy to track and more disgusting. we knew this was behind -- one anonymous source gave it to paper a, network b calls the same source to get confirmation. then snopes, fact-checkers agree. investigative that kept the steele dossier going. so how can we ever trust these clowns again? they would do everything to destroy a person from a president they can't stand obviously an evil supporter. they push a light to help their side win an election. it's like biden claiming the vaccine started with him and no emergency at the border but the press don't just nod along but they take the lights and turn it into truth. it's not fake news, deep fake news and be ready when they use it on you. so even, juan, "the washington post" own erik wemple took his paper to task today. so it is obvious, this is a bigger, you did your them. >> juan: i think this is an effort

we have "washington examiner" chief political correspondent byron york.usinesses signing a letter to the governor and state lawmakers that they plan to impose the largest tax hikes in history is a bad idea. are they going to listen? >> probably not. tens of thousands of people fled new york last year during the whole coronavirus pandemic. the manhattan institute did a study last year of new york city residents who make over $100,000 a year. now those residents account for 80% of income tax revenue for new york city and 44%, nearly half, said they were seriously considering leaving and when they do leave, they go to someplace where it is cheaper. what has happened is, obviously living in new york involves some inconveniences. it is expensive, it is crowded, it can be difficult to get around but it offers a lot of other benefits. extraordinary social, cultural world you can't find elsewhere in the united states. the problem is when you have something like the pandemic it begins to seem maybe not worth it. you've seen a lot of people leave. and when they do

residents too leave driving out your tax base will spell disaster for your cities joining the washington examineroung 250 businesses signing a letter to the governor and state lawmakers that in new york the plaintiff imposed the largest tax hike in history it's a bad idea, will they listen? >> probably not tens of thousands of people fled new york during the whole coronavirus pandemic, the manhattan institute did a study last year of new york city residents who make over $100,000 a year, those residents account for 80% of the income tax revenue for new york city and 44%, nearly half say they were serious and consider leaving and when they do leaveo they go to someplace where it's cheaper. what is happened obviously living in new york involves inconvenient, it's expensive, crowded and can be difficult to get around but it offers benefits soul troll and cultural world that you can't findd elsewhere in the united states the problem when you have something like the pandemic and begins to see maybe not worth it and you see a lot of people leave and when they do leave the one to have more money off to

there's a story that just broke before we came on the air in the "washington examiner" and it says thewo weeks and that number is expected to grow into the thousands. they are just releasing people into the streets. this is a crisis. >> bret: ben, even some democrats along those border states are raising alarms. moments ago in this virtual meeting with the mexican president, here is what president biden said. >> we look at mexico as an equal, not a somebody who is south of our border. you are equal and what you do in mexico and how you succeed impacts dramatically on what the rest of the hemisphere will look like. >> bret: wasn't any public talk about what's happening on the board of there. we assume that that happened behind when the cameras left. one of the things that worked before is one mexico did enforce its southern border, preventing some of those caravans from coming through. >> and that enforcement happened under pressure from president trump and his administration on a lot of different fronts. one of the interesting things about the dynamic in that situation was that the mex

discuss how the speaker of the house is framing her argument with the author of the great revolt, washington examinerl political reporter and former white house physician texas congressman doctor ronnie jackson, welcome to you both. so the legislation is through the house. emily miller was a gun rights advocate and has written a book emily gets a gun tweets this, this is my periodic reminder that no gun-control law has ever been proven to reduce gun violence. the hospital today is just a feel-good measure and reduce signaling to the base. criminals don't get fbi background checks before buying and selling guns. >> he is absolutely right. in 2019 they passed the gun regulation bill similar to what they are trying to do in the house and there were absolutely no requests made from someone trying to claim that will happen because criminals don't go through the legal process. something democrats are miscalculating is the attitudes that have changed towards gun ownership between january and july of last year. 12 million americans bought new guns. 5 million of them were brand-new gun owners. many of them, 4

joining us now, "washington examiner" tea on and kelly hyman, there is a major difference.s, if this is going to be households. >> charles, i will be honest, i don't think there will be much luck with you finding out. as an american i give every president a chance but he has proven he is the liar in chief. he said he wasn't going to destroy the keystone pipeline, he was going to allow people to kind of changed jobs. that wasn't true. 11,000 jobs ended within days of him being in office. over $2 billion in wages. he said if the people of georgia elected those two democratic senators that they would get twodollar checks. that was a lie. you can't trust joe biden. the fact of the matter is his press secretary says one thing, he says another and then he makes another thing two weeks from now. where is his messaging coming from? that's the problem with this administration, we are seeing right now. >> but tiana, this would be a seismic, seismic shift from what everyone interpreted and it would have amazing impacts on a lot of households. >> certainly, and we already knew that whi

telling "the washington examiner", quote, cbp personnel conduct initial inspections for symptoms and risk factors and consult with on site medical personnel. the u.s. centers for disease control and prevention or local health systems as appropriate. former acting gds secretary chad wolf. wow, just -- it's frightening to think we had a system in place where this didn't have to happen. so what has changed to the point where the biden administration feels like they need to put all of us in this together? >> you are absolutely right, harris. we had a system in place when we left the administration that allowed to deal with a surge in the number of folks coming across that border illegally. what we've seen the biden administration do since inauguration is dismantle every one of those programs. you mentioned the remain in mexico program and asylum cooperative agreements, construction of the border wall and the list goes on and on. what they decided to do to replace it. they took tools off the table. the only thing they've replaced it with is a message that says you can come, don't come now

dave and bernstein, republican strategist alexander wilkes and the "washington examiner," draws harsh at the photo 20 times and i can believe on a commercial flight for john kerry, but just chilling out without a mask. what do you think of it? >> that was the most shocking part of all peace. this is nothing new for secretary carey, the hypocrisy over the private plane, a warrior to this mask, this is par for the course with him. but you know what i actually want to hear and this is not defense because he liked nancy pelosi and gavin newsom am i really want people to say in this administration, things are normalizing. this man has presumably been vaccinated. i really want to hear not 15 footnotes when i can hug grandma but how we are moving forward as a country. so i kind of wish he would own up to it and say, you know what my things are getting back to normal and we need to move on. >> charles: although, david, you've got dr. fauci saying even with vaccination he should have had on two masks and not one. this is clear hypocrisy from a high profile democrat. >> look at them i think peo

the "washington examiner" says black lives matter entity for activists shutdown street surrounded the courthouse for several hours. chanting and marching up and down city blocks calling for justice and the guilty verdict against chauvin. there are those who don't like the perception of how it's being set up but there are others showing up and we are told that they were peaceful. they want to be heard and they say justice will only be a conviction. >> recurrence of what you think about the case, there's a trial that's coming. the facts are going to be induced. we have a justice system in this country. you don't judge somebody, however you look at the situation, guilty before the facts are tried before the court. we want a conviction. ask the people in minneapolis or any of the other cities that suffer destruction, violence, looting, people being killed. the residents want police protection. they don't care about this ridiculous narrative that's completely and utterly false. they want police protection and yet their elected officials, unfortunately many of them voted for these individua

. >> harris: as new york governor andrew cuomo faces two worsening scandals a "washington examiner" op-eddemocrats had to ignore the harassment claims against cuomo at first because that's how they treated tara reed's sexual misconduct claims against joe biden. sean hannity is calling out a double standard among those in the media who were swift to target supreme court justice brett kavanaugh. watch. >> one must ask at this time considering what happened in kavanaugh's case where is the i believe her caucus after that interview? low and behold almost everyone in the media mob, democratic party, all of a sudden now they agree with me because in 2018 there were all feigning moral outrage and lying in order to block kavanaugh's nomination. >> harris: rnc chairwoman ronna mcdaniel joins me now. great to see you today. i want to borrow some of sean's words there. he called it the i believe her caucus. does that no longer exist? is it not necessary apparently to some? >> to the democrats it doesn't. it does when you are talking about a republican or brett kavanaugh and destroying his reputation

joining me now ari fleischer, former press secretary and byron york, from the "washington examiner" boths contributors. ari, start with you. you are a communications expert. to me, tweets equate judgment. it's bad judgment. it's not a mistake. you have to try to tweet something, don't you? you have to work at it? >> well, first and foremost, trey, let me say watching that clip of you grill that guy, i'm glad i never have to cross intellectual swords with you. that was quite a show! yeah, look. i think you put your finger on human nature. it's accented in politics. you have two competitive politics and they are competitive and they are supposed to cross intellectual swords with each other and cross over ideas. you were measured by how good of a fighter you are. some people go too far. and that is the thing about politics. i think we are living in a fascinating time. i try to be polite when i communicate. i think that is always important. i think you can still have a good debought and be polite. we are in an era, president trump showed where it you have to fight hard and punch hard, counte

the m pinyon writer, york, political "washington examiner." the administration is saying the trump administration left a mess. but the numbers have gone up exponentially since president biden took office. >> yeah come with the trump administration did not leave a mess in modest numbers and situation of the control. and the country of mexico. look, they shouldn't strain too hard, a group of t-shirts say biden. there is no question about it. they are now sending in fema, the federal emergency association. and that means it is an emergency. and they go in after disasters. it is a disaster. they can deny it and deny it but reality will break through. you will hear more noise about this, particularly from democrats as the days go on. >> bret: what about this politically, chuck? how does this play? >> you know one thing i've been keeping track of is the reaction of border democrats in texas, henry cuellar has been quite outspoken. he is the representative from one of the border districts down there. this is not good, either on the ground in terms of

senior pettit editor at the federalist in chief for political correspondent of the washington examineru. molly, is there something to that that there could be some policies in managing the border from previous ministrations tha might be helpful now. this is what now president then candidate said about what he would do in 2019. >> i would in fact make sure that there is an immediate search at the border all those people seeking asylum. they deserve to be heard, that' who we are. we're a nation that says if you want to free and you're free from oppression, you should come . >> molly, he told us what he wa going to do. >> exactly. president biden said in the months leading up to his inauguration that he was going to resend everything that the trump administration had done t secure the border he was set about doing it with his executive order so soon as he took office, he introduced an amnesty bill. that message is loud and clear you're encouraged to come to th country illegally. if you make it over the border you will be completely allowed to stay. this is a big difference from the trump

arthel: byron york is joining us now, the chief political correspondent for the washington examiner andbutor. the biden administration not calling it a crisis but certainly treating it like one as fema is deployed to handle crises. yesterday, homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas said, quote, a border patrol facility is in place for -- is no place for a child. so it appears fema's job will be to find and expand suitable facilities he went on to say for those children. the question to you, byron, is how can fema work in concert with customs and border patrol and hhs or dhs to begin to solve this crisis? i mean, what's the first step beyond what they've done? >> well, they're looking for anywhere they can find beds that they can use to house these unaccompanied minors who are coming over the border. i mean, everything they're saying says there's no emergency. that everything they're doing says there's an emergency. fema obviously is the federal emergency management agency. so they're trying to find some way to increase capacity. one thing they're not doing is trying to limit the
