we don't know all the entanglesments of biden inc., president biden or hunter biden, but i'll tell you who does, russian and chinese intelligence. is that a contributing factor to why president biden, first today in office -- day in office, weakened america? is that what's behind the cancellation of this china initiative? making sure that china or trying to keep china from stealing all of our intellectual property that has strengthened them at the the expense of the u.s.? people need to ask that question. it's exactly what senator grassley and i were trying to warn the american people about before the election, but the complicit media who basically installed president biden, got him campaigned from his basement in office, they covered up for him then, they're covering up for him now. it's kind of hard to cover up the disaster that is the result of this policy now as russia's invading ukraine. maria: and also western point out that this week -- we should point out that this week we learned that the secret service claims it cannot find any communications relating to hunter biden's travel

and james biden. we also are aware of the tax evasion charges on 2018, regarding hunter biden. these are investigations that are continuing to this day. we need a special counsel to get to the bottom of this. elizabeth: senator marsha blackburn, it is a pleasure to have you on. come back soon. great insights there. >> always a pleasure. elizabeth: police warning border chaos behind rise in crime. former kansas mother arrested because she gave al-baghdadi a plan to break into the u.s. via the southern border to bomb a unnamed college campus. we have former nypd lieutenant, darren porcher, next on "the evening edit". >> i believe this is a result of the soft on crime policies of democrat governance. low bail, no bail. we have catch and elise on the southern border, we have catch-and-release in our criminal justice system as well. before nexium 24hr, anna could only imagine a comfortable night's sleep without frequent heartburn waking her up. now, that dream... . ...is her reality. nexium 24hr stops acid

so, where president biden said is a good idea. now the senate will have a fair process that moves quickly to confirm the president's pick. i applaud president biden's commitment to choosing a qualified and a historic nominee. more balanced, diverse judiciary has been one of our top goals ever since we got into the majority a year ago and we are achieving that. now we will achieve that hopefully at the supreme court level as well. the more americans look at the courts and see people who look like them and come from the same backgrounds that share similar experiences, the better off our justice system and democracy will be. this week senate democrats are working to confirm even more of president biden's highly qualified nominee's and in the theme of continuing our success from the 2021 and 22022, democrats are focused on passing legislation that directly helps american families. today our economy is in the midst of a historic turnaround with record wage and economic growth and people talk about 5.7%. to me, one of the most important

biden home alone. that's the focus of tonight's "angle." now, leave it to joe biden. one year into his presidency he's already made himself a lame duck. so he's paddling around by himself in his pond is now just a muddy puddle. and it's not just republican governors ignoring him, members of his own party don't want him around either. >> would you like the president to come in campaign with you? >> this campaign in texas is knocking to be about joe biden, knuckling to be able to all trump, it's not quite to be about anybody outside of our state. >> does that mean you would prefer that he would not come? >> it means i'm focused on texas and on my fellow texans. >> laura: the stiffest of stiff arms game courtesy of stacey abrams, who refused to appear at biden's voting rights speech in atlanta. that's her big issue, by the way. we never did find out what scheduling conflict was. the truth is biden is human kryptonite for anyone hoping to win politically. even the dullest democrat knives in the drawer know that biden is clueless on stopping the biggest issue facing us now

biden's d.h.s. secretary recently told our border patrol "i know the policies of this administration are not particularly popular with u.s. customs and border protection, but that is the reality, so let's see what we can do within that framework." can you believe it? one border patrol agent reportedly turned his back on mayorkas. that is courage. that is being american and standing up for what you believe in. i believe that border patrol agent is a hero for standing up and being fearless for what is right. i'm going to ask you here today, all patriotic americans across this country, stand up for what you believe in. be that border patrol agent. use your first amendment rights to fight back against the democrat incompetence that we're seeing throughout the country. show up. show up in record numbers to peacefully protest when democrat officials attempt to destroy sanctity of the united states constitution. show up to school board meetings when they try indoctrinate our nation's children. vote in midt

this is biden's excuse. >> president biden: the sanctions we imposed exceed swift or anything that's been done. the sanctions we imposed have generated 2/3 of the world joining us. they are profound sanctions. >> laura: oh, okay. what's really going on is biden is bowing to the wishes of berlin and brussels. for starters, you polled most of the $30 billion in foreign capital parked now in russia. they need the swift system in order to easily access their money, their investments. otherwise, they could lose it all. plus, europe still plans on buying energy from russia, by the way, using ukrainian pipelines no less. no wonder germany's chancellor add adamantly opposed to removing russia's ability to access the swift banking system. why are we ceding our authority to germany? they sold out economies to russia and china. they don't devote the amount of money they should be under the nato agreement to their military. we're seeing the cost of all of this. remember when people are getting on trump for asking nato nations to step up and do their fair share with their military budgets. they'r

boy, that was joe biden then. noww joe biden giving out free crack pipes to black people. so maybe the lessones here is real growth is possible. sometimes wisdom really does watch ith age. you mayal be wondering as you watch all this hold on a second is the real drug crisis in this country really that crack heads don't have enough crackt pipes? i seem to remember reading somewhere that more than one hundred thousand americans died last year from opioid o.d. what are we doingat about that ? well, goodd question and the answer is nothing. we're not doing anything about that . those hundred thousand americans10 learned from officially marginalized groups their deaths have nothing to do with the equity agenda. in fact, their deaths may have helped the equity agenda by changing the demographicsof f the country in a way that benefits the democratic party . so as far as the bidenpa n administration is concerned, it's not a bad trend. sure,ot a lot of people died frm opioids in joe biden's first year. in fact, the total body countqu was the equivalent of a significant american cit

joe biden broke a threshold because joe biden not once, but twice has actually filibustered a black woman to try to stop her from becoming a federal judge that was janice rogers brown, george w. bush nominated her the d.c. circuit court of appeals and joe biden along with chuck schumer, along with dickum durbin, they filibustered her they tried to block her from becoming a judge. not because she was a black woman because god forbid she actually believed in the constitution and would follow the terms of thehe t constituti. what biden early once here is a left wing ideologue. wabut he also wants to discriminate based on a race because the modern democratic party supports quotas and they support racials discrimination. rimaria: wow you make a lot of really good point senator. so do you think he's going to nominate an activist? and are you a no vote? >> i have to see who the nominee is before i decide who to vote. but i will say this, biden nominates a judge in the same mold as a nominates he has put forward for this past year, you know it has been stunning pretty sit on the judiciary committ

even more ludicrous by cutting domestic energy biden had to beg opec to pump more oil now biden is talking tough on putin. >> we are ready to impose severe sanctions on russia if it further invades ukraine. >> severe sanctions can someone tell his own administration the day before biden said that his own energy regulators were imposing severe sanctions on us. massive new clampdown on lng pipelines and exports terminals. we have huge amounts of natural gas sitting underground and appellation we could export to europe so they don't have to rely on putin's gas. and biden just blocked it. do you think putin didn't notice? is not just energy. do you think putin didn't notice? is not just energy. the same day as biden threatened severe sanctions on russia his own deputy national security advisor was kicking russia out of the international financial transaction system stomach is probably not going to be the we have other severe measures case you will see swift in the we can take that our allies and partners are ready to take in lockstep with us and don't have the same spillover effects. steve: th

biden should have known better. joe biden is not a bright and smart person. remember secretary gate's comments. he took a wrecking ball to the u.s. oil and gas industry and killed the keystone pipeline and put restrictions on all new drilling and gave the waiver to vladimir putin to build the nord stream-2 pipeline. biden was trying to appease the new green deal party. last year 230 million barrels of oil imported from russia and pushed our nato allies into putin's hands. he begged putin to produce more oil rather than produce more oil here at home. oil that would create jobs and help our national security. we would not have to worry about saudi arabia the middle east or russia. but joe got rid of all of that. and took donald trump's energy independence and gave it away. in july putin told the world what he planned to do. july 12th to be exact. what he explained to do in ukraine. biden did nothing. nato did nothing. the world did nothing. in november he started amassing troops at ukraine's border and biden, nato and western europe did nothing. in december he

biden: i'm not prepared to comment on that at the moment. >> [inaudible] pres. biden: yeah? no, no, no. he's had his hand up a long time. >> thank you, mr. president. how concerned are you that putin wants to go beyond ukraine, and other countries in the u.s. will have to get involved if t moves into nato countries? pres. biden: if he did move to nato countries, he would be involved. billeting unconvinced of is that if we don't stop now, he will be emboldened. if we don't move against him now with significant sanctions, he will be emboldened. look, well, anyway. >> [shouting over each other] pres. biden: i'm sorry, i can't hear you. >> is india fully with you on the issue of ukraine and russia? pres. biden: does the defense department of the united states? >> so, india is one of your major defense partners. is india fully in sync with the united states on russia? pres. biden: we're in consultation with india today. we haven't resolved that completely. thank you all very much. thank you. [shouting over each other] >> are you sanctioning president putin? [camera shutters] >> m

biden: it's a large conflict already. we will provide all the forces needed in eastern european nations that are members of nato. we are more united than ever and i have no plans to talk with putin. wall street journal? >> is there a reason why the u.s. isn't doing that? is there disagreement among allies regarding swift and whether russia should be allowed to be a part of it? pres. biden: the sanctions we proposed on their banks are of equal consequence, maybe more consequence than swift, number one. number two, it is always an option, but right now that is not the position of the rest of europe wishes to take. cecelia vega abc. ,>> sir, sanctions clearly have not been enough to deter vladimir putin to this point. what is going to stop him? how and when does this end and do you see him trying to go beyond ukraine? a second question i will give to you know, the statement he gave, that the west will face consequences greater than any you have faced in history, is he threatening a nuclear strike? pres. biden: i have no idea

biden: yes. russian missiles and bullets and tanks in ukraine, yes, i am. >> if sanctions cannot stop president putin, what penalty can? pres. biden: i do not say they cannot stop him. >> you have talked about the threat of sanctions for weeks. pres. biden: with that threat, the imposing of sanctions and seeing the effects are two different things. now, he is going to begin to see the effects of the sanctions. >> and what will that do? how will that change his mindset? pres. biden: because it will weaken his country that he will have to make a very difficult choice on whether to continue to move toward being a second-rate power or respond. >> you said in recent weeks that big nations cannot bluff when it comes to something like this. you recently said the idea of personally sanctioning president putin was on the table. is that a step you are prepared to take? pres. biden: it is not a bluff. it is on the table. >> sanctioning president putin? why not sanction him today, sir? >> you detailed severe

biden said. not because he wanted a conflict but because we are doing everything in our power to remove any reason that they may give to justify invading the ukraine and prevent them from moving. the president did not say how the administration knew about mr. putin's decision, but to u.s. officials said that the assessment was based in part on new intelligence showing that nearly half of the 150,000 russian forces have moved out of staging and into combat formation, and they could launch a full-scale invasion within days. the force includes 122 125 battalion tactical groups, up from the mid-80's earlier in the month. some of the forces are reservists who are made up of an occupation force after an invasion. officials said. they asked for anonymity to discuss government assessments. mr. biden found that the united states and its allies were united behind imposing severe economic sanctions if russians or sins -- if russian forces crossed the ukraine border. he said that he held a call with democrat

joe biden's disastrous retreat from afghanistan. the consequences at the time i said as a result of this incredible weakness, all of our enemies across the globe are looking to washington, taking the measure of the man in the oval office, and the chances of russia i raiding ukraine have risen 10 fold, the chances of china invading taiwan increased 10 fold. we are seeing the first of those two shoes dropping today because of biden's weakness. we had in place bipartisan policies to prevent what's happening now. in 2019 i i produced targeted sanctions against the nord stream pipeline. it the skips ukraine because the real insurance that ukraine had against invasion is putin has to take his natural gas in pipe lines that go through ukraine. once heed builds nord real 2 he doesn't have to worry about those pipe lines. president trump signed my sanctions legislation into law. and putin stopped building the pipeline the day president trump signed those sanctions. and putin began building that pipeline again on january 24, 2021. four days a

and that's a problem for president biden. you also think about who the previous record holder was for the most jobs gains in a single year, jimmy carter. so if you're looking for a model of a president who, you know, was -- saw his prospects sink because of the economy, that's jimmy carter. and president biden will have to contend with the same things like inflation. so the question right now for economists, for the white house is why, ways going on here that this is a roaring economy, inflation is high, but it's a roaring economy and economists don't feel it. i want to take a look at -- let's start with biden's approval. you've seen this downward trajectory and it started last summer, july. the delta wave starts to rise and you see biden taking a plunge and you have this period here in august, this is afghanistan. so biden is dealing with something that is maybe not necessarily about his policies and you see consumer confidence going in the same direction at around exactly the same time. maybe it's not about policies, maybe

now leave it to joe biden. to j. one year into his one year into his presidency and he's already made himself a lame duck. ng so a he's paddling around by himself and his pond is now just a muddy puddle. and it's not just republican governors ignoring him. members of his own party don't want him around h either. would you like the president to come and campaign with you y? this campaign in texas isig not going to be about joe biden. it'sn not i going to be about donald trump. it's not going to be about anyone from outside of ourur trutsi. >> does that mean that youpr would prefer that he not come? it means that i'm focused on texas and on my fellowow texans. but the stiffest of stiff arms came courtesy of stacey abrams who refused to appear at biden's voting rights speech in atlanta last month. that's our big issue, by theth way. did find out what abrams scheduling conflict was wt. well, the truth is biden is human kryptonite for anyone b hoping to win politically. even the dullest democrat knives in the drawer knowk

president biden is not even running the country anymore. >> i doubt biden knows what day it is, but he has made the decision to hand the agenda over to bernie sanders and elizabeth warren and aoc's. they keep nominating people who are radical and will abuse their power, whether nominating two of the leading advocates for abolishing the police in department of justice, biden did that and every democrat voted to confirm them. >> todd: it seems obvious to you and me and most of america, no one wants the current policies the biden administration is espousing. people want strong borders, shocker. people want safe streets, productos store shelves and at a normal price. everything biden has done is the exact opposite. jim cooper, the tennessee democrats issue hits a key point. the woke biden agenda centers on liberal elites not democrats in rural areas. the democrats in rural areas may be more fiscally and socially liberal, but they want the same basic things we want and joe biden is not delivering to them. >> carley: one of the biggest things dog thanksgiving administration, they are behind

he sat quietly on his hands when joe biden stepped up. i look at the people closest to joe biden. i look at jill biden, his chief of staff, people like susan rice, other people that are right around the president you know his decline in israel, that he's not an actively engaged president, that his judgment is unclear, he can't even recite lines on a teleprompter. the things that he implemented, biden and harris, our self-inflicted wounds from the united states of america. and the border was secure, now it's not. foreign policy great under trump. inflation wasn't here, now it is. those democrats did this to america. and he is responsible for it, but it started because of barack obama selecting joe biden as the vice president. >> sean: the question is, we had dozens of republicans demanding a cognitive test. do you think that any point in the next three years there's a serious significant debate over the 25th amendment? >> whether joe biden did or did not take his provision, i think the real debate is going to start the day after the election coming up in eight months. the midterm e

guest: is remarkable that joe biden has whenever he discusses hunter biden it or his brother jim biden, and these transactions which are pure and simple, peddling it done with his predecessor in full knowledge and his involvement. and he lied so effortlessly and it shows perhaps, a lot of time, a lifetime of habit of lying about what is been doing because the peddling it influence peddling is connected to him since his earliest days, for decades ago and he just internationalized it and more money for his family when he became vice president for eight years barack obama put them in charge of areas of the world like china and russia and as we say now, ukraine printed and a lot of money was made by the family, tens of millions of dollars pretty and as you just sent chuck grassley and ron johnson really did masterful work in uncovering one aspect of that corruption and for the trouble they were reduced by the democrats called russian agents and accused of having russian disinformation is nothing to do with russian disinformation, this is principle, treasury departments reports of suspiciou

did the biden team have any solutions or answers? here with reaction former hawaii congresswoman tulsi gabbard with us. on sunday she said she believes sanctions on russia would deter putin and on the other hand talks about when america stands for principles we hold dear we put ourselves out there to incur costs. we are already paying a buck 50 more for gasoline? now $3 more? >> i want to focus on those 2 points. this is embarrassing. it's hard to keep track of all of those jumble of words. she was sent there to be the voice of the united states as a purely political calculation. you and i both know she has no foreign policy background or understanding. she has no consist of the cost of war nor does she have the temprament. how do you deter someone by punishing them before they do it? it's simple. this is grade school understanding. i will punish you ever but do something, the kid would say i might as well as do it anyway. this is not rocket science and talking about incurring costs. kamala harris and joe biden have said we are going

biden, but mr. biden is my president, and i pray to god for him every day, that he handles this appropriately. make you for taking my call. host: a map from the bbc on nato expansion since the year 1997. the dark purple on this map, those nations that joined nato before 1997. the lighter magenta color, the 14 different countries that have joined since 1997. stephen michigan, democrat. good morning. caller: yes, good morning. thank you for allowing me on here to speak my mind. i noticed they had meetings last night at the cnn or something like that, where every country came together -- host: the united nations security council. caller: yeah, trying to get this rationed out. i love the way the ukrainian ambassador spoke up about his country and how firm he was about it, but also noticed that russian ambassador acted like he didn't really care. his attitude was very disrespectful. i want to get to the point of this. we have ukraine that is in dire need. these people are human. they deserve to live the

unfortunately president biden hasn't so far. stopping nord stream 2 is excellent and exactly what germany needed to do. >> a senior administration official pours cold water on a putin/biden meeting. if russia won't take military action when it looks like they will. the white house gave putin a choice over the weekend. have a meeting with president biden or get aggressive with ukraine. it seems that he has chosen the latter. >> harris: wow. all right. peter doocy, thank you very much. pete hegseth co-host of "fox & friends" weekend is in "focus." we couldn't stop talking during the whole thing. drip, drip from peter doocy just saying from general kellogg. talk to me about the pressure the president is under right now. >> well, it's amazing it took them this long to come out with this admission. either an invasion or it's not. vladimir putin has strategically created this ambiguity around those regions. we recognize them as sovereign ukraine soil. when the tanks move in, you need to make that declaration and make it boldly. maybe

>> it's not a good timing for president biden. he would like obviously to get the economy doing better, particularly on inflation and energy costs. there's a risk that will go the other direction. you see the markets boiled in the last few days coming to the price of gas coming up at the pump. and the president has warned americans they are going to absorb a little pain here. russia is one of the largest energy producers in the world. we don't get a lot of it here in the u.s. from russia directly. most of that goes to europe. ey are obviously more on the front line in that regard than the u.s. is. but the world energy markets are fungible. if the price goes up elsewhere, it will go up here as well, and that is a problem for president biden because he's already sort of lagging in the polls, in the mid 40's and the approval ratings, and he would have liked to spend this time focusing on curbing covid and getting the economy in better shape rather than confronting russia and looking for the economic sosts here at home -- costs here a

much of joe biden's secret migrant operation is unknown. shocking images from the border in daylight. wearing cammo and arrested in 36 hours in texas. we just learned, those flights carrying illegal immigrants have cost you the taxpayer $340 million. you are watching "fox and friends first," i'm todd piro. >> carley: that is a lot of money. talking to dhs secretary chad wolf about this this hour. we b

what does president biden do? he sends u.s. troops to three run e countries that weren't members of nato in 1997. what do you see as the significance of this decision from the president? >> it's to demonstrate that nato is a vital national interest to the united states. he is going to these lengths to assure our nato allies that we're in for this. we're going to support them and he leaves the door open for even a greater military preparation, not a response, but a preparation along the line of return of forces to germany exercises that we witnessed in the cold war. he's doing the right thing at the right level. >> nic, last hour we were talking about the sanctions, the new sanctions and one of the things that we heard was that putin has been basically trying to inoculate himself and his fellow oligarchs for the past many years by creating something like $3 billion rainy day fund knowing sanctions would be coming at some point and i think it was michael who said really what needs to happen is the oligarchs need to become persona

biden simply returned them to russia last summer. that was along with lifting our sanctions on the line. i think we've been sending mixed signals i think biden is taking full advantage of that. he really does not think we have what it takes to go the long haul. >> when an extraordinary moment, larry thanks about her being here and talking with us this weekend. >> my pleasure maria take care. maria: will see us in the ceo of the lindsey group at present by the increased sanctions will have a punishing blow to russia. critics are saying they are not tough enough. and they will not stop potenza plan to rebuild the russian empire of the type of house minority whip steve scalise once upon a time, at the magical everly estate, landscaper larry and his trusty crew... were delayed when the new kid totaled his truck. timber... fortunately, they were covered by progressive, so it was a happy ending... for almost everyone. tums vs. mozzarella stick so it was a happy ending... when heartburn hits, fight back fast with tums chewy bites. fast hear

i don't blame joe biden for not . tammy: what about the bridges, building a bridge and working with people and bringing people in? is that not something -- >> you've singled out one single person who's demonstrated repeatedly -- i don't think it's about thing. tammy: johnny, you are in california where elon musk left california to go to texas -- there you go, this is a man who makes moves that resonates, does this matter? is elon musk more powerful when it comes to his impact than joe biden? >> absolutely. he just didn't leave, there was an assembly woman, gonzales, who dropped the f bomb on twitter and told him to get out and he did he took his company and his jobs and his tax dollars with him. i think elon musk should go to the white house. >> come on. >> elon musk has a part of the product, he's a billionaire and you can't cancel him which makes joe biden in the white house afraid of him is exactly why elon musk should go and meet them. >> elon seems to want to, he understands the value of that even though he seems
