sara azari and steve moore in los angeles. thank you both so much for helping us break this down. really appreciate it. >> thanks, kim. good night. >>> one of the suspected rioters who is trying to become the governor of michigan was arrested by the fbi on thursday. ryan kelly is facing misdemeanor charges related to his involvement in the insurrection. and the fbi has executed a search warrant in his home. kelly initially claimed he never went inside the capitol building on january 6th and left early, but footage shows him climbing the scaffolding and waving for rest of the crowd to follow him. kelly has since been released on bond. he is part of a crowded field of michigan republicans seeking the g gubernatorial nomination. >>> we're getting a report on what officers discussed before confronting the gunman in uvalde, texas that massacred young student, teachers. >>> an indigenous affairs expert on the amazon. details ahead. stay with us. hitting the road, not all 5g networks are created equal. t-mobile covers more highway miles with 5g than verizon. t-mobile has more 5g bars in

want to go to steve moore, what he makes of this. steve, generally you entertain going union if you don't like the pay that you're getting entertained. yet, in a lot of cases, the job benefits say nothing of the salaries and the hourly rates are very, very high, very generous. what do you make of it? >> well, look, i don't have a problem with unions. if workers want to organize, that's their constitutional right. what opposed is when people are informationed to june against their will. let's not forget that if you look over the course of the last 25 or 30 years, private sector unionism is way, way down. 6 or 7% of american workers in the private sector are unionized. if the unions want to make a big comeback, they have a long way to go. >> neil: what does this signal to you? it does fly in the face of what you think would have. this is more likely an environment where the workers are abused or underpaid or the benefits are such that they're a joke if any benefits at all. is this maybe a preview of what could be coming? >> you know, w

the read on this with gary kaltbaum, steve moore. guys, thank you all for coming. katherine, ended with you, begin with you. this idea that once shrinkflation starts, it doesn't get to expanding again. so no matter what happens with prices, we might have to get used to this. what does that tell you in. >> that companies are having a lot of trouble, neil, keeping paces with inflation and passing on the rising costs. so they're doing what they can to keep their profit margins without having to impact too the adversely the consumer. the fact, neil, is that the consumer's already impacted. we're seeing 8.5% inflation, 20% in food and energy costs, and real wages are are negative. so the consumer's already feeling the pinch. imagine on top of that, as in my house with my five children, you open up a pack of oreos, and it's half full. that happened last week. so certainly this is something that i think your reporter is right, it's very hard to go back to refilling that package. it kind of reminds me of government power never waste a good crisis, you know? it's very hard

steve moore is saying right now. active debate as to what the status of that is effectively. we know what -- how progressives feel about this president and his policies. we played the clip from charles payne. the far left applauding joe biden. >> on the economy and the issues confronting the american people, joe biden is doing a very good job under difficult circumstances. >> one of the things i think the president did positively this week is start to take on the big oil and gas companies for profiteering. >> president biden has done a very good job so far but needs to do more to hold these oil and gas companies accountable. >> bill: austan, i don't know how you sell that to people filling up their trucks and minivans and cars this weekend and paying $120 to do it and get around. >> i agree with you, bill. i am a little puzzled by the clips, though, that you just played there. aoc made headlines by saying that she was not ready to endorse joe biden in 2024 and she didn't know if she supported him. so to portray it like the left is strongly endorsing of biden's policies overal

so just a couple of minutes of comments before i turn it over to my friend and colleague steve moore who really will be running the show tonight. and that is in 1994. i was president of my university's college republicans. and it was more than a dream as a son of the reagan revolution. that -- army would soon be the majority leader.

moore have it on that but anyway, we run enough that he's criticizing the steel. and president trump knew all about it he read it when he was calling me secretly to come to be any seat director and subject came up once or twice but we agreed to disagree. it was interesting because i'm not a fan of tariffs and houseware international taxes, they taxed work in production much as domestic tax rates. i regard myself as a free trader but i'm going to make two qualifications on this. one is, you do have to think about the issue of reciprocity, what is the other side doing to you and trade. this is an important point that trump made and now he and i sort of interesting, the only two op-ed pieces that i wrote when i was in his w administration, jut to the both preceded is g7 meetings and i was the sherpa of g7 and in those i quoted a conversation and he and i and where he believed that he was a free trader and under ideal circumstances, that is to say no tariffs, no nontariff barriers and no subsidies. that is the world's that trump yearned for, those were his goals in a

that's to go to the steve moore argument we're already knit. we might not find out about it until it's too late. it is backward looking in economics. you look back at the numbers happened months or a year ago when the economy slowed down. nobody questions that we're slowing right now. it is just now we're on this edge of how much we are going to slow. what's interesting is we have this argument about the federal reserve whether it will be the savior or the cause. in other words, it's coming in so hard with interest rates they know -- everybody knows they will slow the economy down. they would rather see that than run away inflation. will they be able to manage this and avoid too much of a slowdown? really nobody knows. a lot of people think that it will be tough to do. he has been there and seen it. >> dana: the big issue is prices and gas prices as well. the white house is considering a federal gas tax holiday. the price of gas today average is $4.98. of that 18.3 per gallon is taxes. what do you make of that idea of a gas tax holiday? will it

steve moore is a former trump adviser and a freedom works economist. i was really looking forward to digging into this with you, i pulled some numbers, data and new polling, new new new, just last hour, the latest poll asking the question of respondents are we on the wrong track in this country. total, 85% say wrong track, 92% republicans and highlighted in red, democrats. eight in ten democrats in the country respond that they believe this nation is on the wrong track. a lot of that, steve, you know, is because of president biden's economic policies that are failing. >> that's absolutely right. i lived through the jimmy carter era, and he did not even have numbers that bad and we had high inflation. inflation is not just a killer of the economy, it kills the lives of politicians, people feel it every day. every time they good to the gas pump, the grocery store, and we say we have 8.5% inflation and they say no, the rate is higher than that. >> sandra: feels like it. >> abysmal numbers and now we have this ruling or this decision by the world leaders t

you're on with steve moore. >> hey, it's my phone call, i used to get weight about inflation and that's -- one of my biggest issues in the economy everything. and -- inflation only hurts you if your wages stay stagnant. but this inflation, it's crazy for the average person to try to outpace this with just a minimum wage. so i have started, you know, go side hustles on amazon and social media. and of trying to, like, you know, do what i can on my end, just keep my family, you know, supported through this. and i'm curious, like, i have a lot of things running around my rank right now. but i used to watch a lot of peter schiff. i'm not sure if you know this guy. but he always talks about how it's so difficult for the government to really deal with this kind of policies and these issues with monetary, because they basically, it's a very unpopular among the politicians and the people. because what needs to happen involves a lot of pain, economically. and nobody wants to vote for that, nobody wants to be the person that, you know, causes, i, in a massive recession. so they just keep winning,

steve moore joins us, douglas holtz-eakin as well. doug end it with you. you're former congressional budget director. you know the money that comes in, you know the money that comes out. a lot of people curse the energy industry for making money right now. it hasn't always been that way. that is revenue that makes it to uncle sam. so in a flip sense the money coming in for the oil companies is money that is going out to washington to help with very spending many in the white house want to push. it's a weird kind of a conundrum, is it not? >> i think if you take apart the arguments we heard past couple days, they don't really hang together in a economic sense. oil companies to have incentive to produce. i think there is no question about that. there is a lot of things in the way of producing from a regulatory standpoint, certainly from the stance of the white house at beginning of this administration, and right now tax revenue is booming. you know the notion somehow these oil companies need to pay their fair share, they lost buckets of money in 2020. they m

maria: well it is a good point steve moore, a lot of debate whether or not inflation is peaking right now, i have not seen any evidence of any peak. have you? and what is most important in this jobs' report from your standpoint? >> well, you know feels like you are out that hurricane metaphor, you just feel like a tsunami is coming you don't know exactly what it is going to arrive austin right jobs market incredibly strong last year best time in lifetime looking for a job. they are still out there good news. you still have a lot of jobs available, but just feels like this ride is coming to an end feels like cancer cell inflation is now starting to hit business community a big way i hope i am wrong. i think we've come to an end of this kind of prosperous period, now going to see real downturn i predicament a quarter million jobs still a good number but i think this peter is coming to an end. maria: yeah, that also would indicate a massive slowdown in terms of the jobs growth that we've been seeing several months, a quarter million jobs created steve. because the estimates are 300 plus,

moore who really will be running the show tonight. that is a 1994 i was president

steve moore joins us. serves in a very key economic advisory role for donald trump. steve, i guess we're past mea culpas on anybody in the administration for acknowledging what guys like you were talking about very early on, that all of this spending would be inflationary. it is what the it is. she didn't seem to signal what they can do right now. what did you make of that? >> yeah, i agree entirely. i think what makes americans so nervous and you saw those poll results that just came out today from fox showing that about 80% of americans feel the economy is headed in the wrong direction. then you have the treasury secretary today basically throwing up her hands and saying there's not much we can do about this. that's the same thing with the commerce secretary that said it's out of our control. and then joe biden, the president. the day before said i can't flick a switch and turn this inflation offer. so you get a sense that this administration is like a little ship out in the high seas with the gale-force winds and not bobbing along with any kind of strategy. there

steve moore is a retired special agent with the fbi and he said the videos reveal the magnitude of what happened on january 6th. >> it was pretty devastating the type of mob action that went in there. and i think people sometimes don't realize what goes on during these riots and who the victims are even if you don't see these big death tolls or something. if you have people who are wounded, if you lose police officers, there were deaths in this, and it is important to show the magnitude of it. >> donald trump quickly responded to the hearing with insults. he called the committee members political hacks and complained had there were no positive testimonies and he again repeated his big lie about election fraud and voting irregularities. he ended by saying our country is in such trouble. president biden is hosting summit of americans in los angeles and said he hadn't had time to watch the hearing but he offered thoughts about the events of january 6 and the hearing. and here he is. >> i think it was a clear flagrant violation of the constitution. i think these guys and women broke the law

economist steve moore says president biden, you own it. >> this is a result of policies that were implemented. self-inflicted wounds. not a result of covid. because covid is basically over we should be seeing less inflation, better growth. >> harris: president biden is insisting he is taking gas prices and inflation very seriously but as americans are getting crushed by it all, he is now changing his tune and wants to talk about solar power. you have one of those in your backyard. he invoked the defense production act to spur domestic manufacturing of solar panels and clean energy technologies. the "wall street journal" with this warning. it's becoming mr. biden's household economic remedy. the constitutional risk is the president will increasingly resort to emergency powers to deputize private industry to do his political bidding. the economic risk is that the government will misallocate resources and make the u.s. economy even less competitive. in "focus" now rnc chairwoman ronna mcdaniel. those are dire warnings from the "wall street journal." what do you make of it? >> i think it's right

tonight's bream team channel, former eric trump economic advisor steve moore, author of "how trump is making black america great again," forced cooper. judgmental welcome back. this is the year to date price hikes for groceries up nearly 12%, gasoline nearly 50%, fuel and oil 107%, natural gas 30%, new cars over 12%, used cars over 16%. steve, what is the state of the economy tonight, inflation's numbers coming in today? >> you know, the last time we were on the show i think a couple weeks ago we were talking about this very issue and i mentioned the 8% inflation and i got a lot of mail and angry calls of people saying hey, inflation is just 8%, you mentioned everything from eggs to oil to produce up, you know, 10, 15, 20%, so a lot of americans feel it is worse than this. it was really disturbing about that report that came out today, shannon, was that inflation, now it is clear, it is not temporary, it is not transitory. remember they use that word last year. and it is not leveling off. shannon, it is getting worse. the number that came out this morning, this number, if you had it f

seymour of a southerly flow here as we go into steve moore that a marine air work its way well on shore. so kind of pushing the fire from the south and all of a sudden now start to see the wind switching around last couple of hours coming out of the north, the northeast as we're seeing some of those winds blowing the 6, 7, miles an hour. but the winds will calm down overnight tonight and that reena layer is going to push its way well on shore to the sacramento valley. we're already seeing a significant on shore trend here and that is going to carry with it. all that moisture from that fog well inland. and that's going firefighters help to suppress the fire from spreading as fast in the coming days. so cooler weather is on the way in the sacramento valley to not to be cold by any means are back in the 90's again tomorrow. but the temperatures are going to be coming down over the next few days and into the weekend. more clouds moving in along the coastline. now you see that sea breeze generally bring in that moisture back on shore. in fact, watch what it does around the bay area overnight

to our friday money team steve moore and austan ghouls bee. how do you see it, steve? >> i've been saying the record will show that i've been warning about this inflation getting worse now for the last nine months that we've been doing this with austan and you go back nine months ago or a year ago, a lot of these economists including seven nobel prize economists said don't worry, we won't inflation. we don't have to worry about inflation with the build back better bill and the spending bills. now we're seeing inflation get worse, not better. it is not temporary or transitory. it is causing real hardship for people and seems to me the biden administration has no strategy now to deal with it. >> bill: let's go, what is the strategy or is it at all? >> the thing about these numbers is it was higher than expected but the new months of inflation, which the new information is lower than the last year. so hopefully we will have reached some peak inflation. i don't think that you can really say that at this point the inflation increases are coming from spending because governm

i did not agree and art die, i think steve moore may have been on that, but we wrote an op-ed piece criticizing this -- criticizing the steel and aluminum tariffs. president trump knew all about it. he read it when he was calling me secretly. the subject came up once or twice. we agreed to disagree. it is interesting. i'm not a fan of tariffs. tariffs are international taxes. they tax work and production just as much as direct -- as the mistake tax rates. so i regard myself as a free trader. but i'm going to make two qualifications on this. one is you do have two think about the issue of reciprocity. what's the other side doing to you on trade? this was an important point trump made. he and i, it is sort of interesting -- the only two op-ed pieces i wrote in his administration both preceded drew -- both preceded g7 meetings. in those, i quoted a conversation he and i had where he believed he was a free trader and under ideal circumstances, that is to say no tariffs, no non-tariff barriers, and no subsidies. that is the world trump yearned for. those were his goals and they are classic free-trad

steve moore made the case we're already in recession. some people agree, some do not. john harwood, cnn had a big commentary on this yesterday. -- sunday this was. >> what's false is that he is not capable of doing the job right now or he is not mentally in tune with the demands of the job. anybody -- any aide who engages with him or reporters, we can see this, the gears of his mind are working. that is an issue pushed by right wing media but it is not correct. >> some of that was in response to the bicycle fall from saturday but that whole phrase about the gears of his mind are working. >> interesting. that's the guy who asked the clinton campaign chief in 2016 what should i ask jeb bush? real reporters go to rival candidates to see what questions they should z. i don't think we should take him seriously. on the ground if the president is too old for the job. 2/3 of voters feel the president is too slow to react to crisis. 21% of those responding say they want president biden to run again in 2024. 1 in 5 voters for the guy who got the most votes in american history no

. >> our friends there, larry kudlow saying we are probably on the front end of recession, steve moore, at a soft recession right now. do you believe we are in a recession or nearing one? >> nearing one. down turn now. whatever phrase they give to it. tens of millions of americans feel they are in recession. incomes not going up as fast as prices, having to make decisions on what cutbacks come and then when mortgage rates, floating mortgage rates they are going to get hit with and come wintertime, much of the country needs heating oil, twice as costly as last year, can't go without heating oil. and financial crisis. japan, the yen is wobbling, and so-called black swans are lurking out there that are going to make the fed job even harder, so do we keep crushing the american economy or stoke up inflation again. that's what's coming. >> sandra: guess whose currency is getting stronger and stronger, vladimir putin. the ruble has made a major come back as he is selling oil to china and india. and back here at home, sees dollars leaving their wallet, eight in ten americans believe the countr

. >> john: steve forbes was on earlier today saying that, or sorry, steve moore on saying that the broader economic numbers are all pointing the wrong way, that eventually inflation will catch up with job creation, and then elon musk said he had a super bad feeling with the economy wants to cut the tesla workforce by 10%. >> yeah, and gallup index, the lowest since the great recession in 2009. so, we are back where the american economy, the people who make things go, small business people, entrepreneurs, they are getting nervous, so are consumers. jamie diamond said consumers have 6 to 9 months worth of savings to spend but after that they are out, and that's pointing to a bad thing. this goes back to what the president did when he came into office, whether it is inflation, whether it is energy prices, it's the things he did when he came into office that caused this problem to grow and what's his answer? we saw it earlier, you referred to it. let's have the green energy subsidies he had in build back better. $570 billion worth of additional spending over the next ten years approximately a

steve moore worked for donald trump. austan goolsbee worked for barack obama. welcome to friday. job openings in america 11.4 million. job seekers 5.94 million. that's 2 to 1 job availability, austan, than those who want one. that's remarkable. >> yeah. that's amazing. you would think that is an indicator that we're at full employment. that there aren't any bodies left to hire. and yet we got a blockbuster number almost 400,000 jobs and the unemployment rate is 3.6%. that part is great. that's the strongest part of the economy. of course the weakest part of the economy is that prices are rising and you have high inflation and we're balancing those out. one thing you saw in the jobs numbers this morning that's a good sign is you start ed to see the comeback in the service sector. if we can shift to go back to spending money on services like leisure and entertainment, going to the dentist and all the things we normally spend money on, hopefully that will provide some relief on the supply chain and by the summer at least a new inflation might be coming down. >> bill: more i want to
