with me, and it was tim scott that would walk me through some of those dark days, and it was tim scott who took that opportunity when he knew i was in a very hurtful place to invite me to south carolina to a place where i had served in the united states army reserve, to speak to all of those wonderful women veterans, and i had no idea that he had invited my daughter to come down and give that introduction for me. just over that weekend, to spend that time with my daughter, to celebrate women serving in the military, she flew from west point down to south carolina. jim had planned the entire thing, and i knew nothing about it, and when he called her out from backstage come as you can imagine, you all know i can get very emotional, and when he called her out from backstage, it was such a special moment in my life. my heart was to singing, because i was able to spend that time with my daughter and one of my true best friends, so it is a lot about what people do in front of the camera, and tim obviously has such a wonderful connection to people when he is in public, but the way he acts in

and i, tim scott is a very dear friend of mine. i would say that he would want the same thing and i know, he would -- maybe he should just jump in the race, i don't know. but most gop members don't want to go back and have, and repeat, the donald trump era. especially of the mean tweets, but more importantly, an attack from one branch of government to another. >> right. >> we don't want to see it again. >> which is something tim scott just avoided. it's a lot more than mean tweets. and that's i think the whole point, which everybody knew, but we have certainly been confronted with. over the past week in these ongoing hearings. thank you all so very much. >>> next, vladimir putin lashes out at the west and threatens this. america's dominance as a world power is coming to an end, he says. >>> plus, new video appears to show two missing americans who had volunteered to fight for ukraine detained at an unknown location. so who's holding them? we're going to speak to the mother of one of them and as president biden prepares for his trip

joining to us discuss republican senator tim scott from south carolina. senator, there is obvious disdain for capitalism at this white house. they want to attack the for-profit business model. the main target is oil companies. there was always oil companies. raymond from exxonmobil. they're enemy number one. where did oil go? oil fell off the map. went from 48 to 38. no one thought about it anymore. this is larger picture, ultimately it is disdain for capitalism. >> they certainly misunderstand the american economy. remember the president said during his state of the union speech you have to lower costs by increasing wages. that tells me has no clue what happens in the free market. as a business owner i can tell you we need more free-marketeers, more capitalism, not fewer capitalism. number two, gas prices went up 60% before thanksgiving last year. which means it was three months before russia and the ukraine situation even occurred. so we continue to see out of this administration is who can i blame next? russia didn't work. putin didn't work. now let's

the two-year point, the "uncle clarence," we have seen this before when tim scott gave that beautiful rebuttal to congress. we always give black republicans -- they seem to be the target. >> emily: the thing i have an issue with, someone has been identified by a liberal human or someone is having a certain skin color, certain characteristic that all of a sudden they have to vote, think, feel a certain way. because my uncle connotation is saying that because he dared to actually think for himself and it was a concurrence dissent on that from the other justices, that he somehow is a reflection of colonialism, slavery. the most disgusting things to me is how everyone immediately assumes and expects, especially coming from the left, that people need to vote -- these voting blocks. bite and it too. you are not black if you don't vote for me. that kind of thing is exactly what it's penetrating this entire movement. everyone has to jump on the bandwagon and see us up in arms, totally ignoring justice thomas' point, but apparently it has gone out the window because it's all about skin color a

south carolina senator tim scott is skeptical. >> unfortunately the way that gas is ticking up every single week, that reduction in price is eliminated in about 12 days. what we need is to have certainty and predictability so that those energy producers feel like they can invest billions of dollars to extract the energy from the soil so that we can use it in our tanks. all we're doing is playing a game of moving things around but not actually impacting the marketplace long term. >> harris: that's why i question does it help biden's politics more? americans are changing travel and commuting plans to save on gas. while the president is busy fighting with the head of a major oil company. wait a minute. which direction does he want to go in here? does he really want to help us? biden is bending to the far left of his political party and now pushing to eliminate our use of fossil fuels by sitting by where they are so expensive. senator scott said even if you lower it by 18 cents we've been on a rise of more than that for months, per week. there is the accusation of biden double talking wh

. >> congresswoman, the police reform efforts spearheaded by you and senators corner brook and tim scott in the aftermath of george floyd's murder failed to move forward last year, now you are running to preside over a city where crime and public safety have emerged as dominant issues in november's election. given the failure to secure police reform at the federal level, what -- you came out leading in the numbers with the most votes, but you had the runoff, what will you do as mayor to deal with police reform and public safety at the same time? >> well, absolutely. the two are not mutually exclusive, as we very well know. as a matter of fact, to the extent that your police department is accountable and transparent, i believe that increases public safety, especially in certain communities that have historically had negative relationships with police departments. and so, when of the things that we have to do here is we really have to deal with the accountability. a few years ago, a ballot initiative was passed that i think actually undermines accountability. it is a citizen's commission,

scott. senator, thanks for joining us. >> absolutely, bret. good to be back with you. thanks so much. >> bret: how do you see this administration dealing with the economy, talking about it and dealing with the numbers that you are seeing? >> well, bret, the truth is that the way this administration talks about it is very confusing. frankly, you hear one arm of the administration saying something and the exact other thing that's being said by the other arm of the administration and they are all confusing. so the average person listening to this administration is confused. where they are not confused about, unfortunately, is the impact that gas prices are having on everyday working americans. what they are not confused about is the impact that inflation is having on their ability to make hard decisions. undoubtedly what they are not confused about is this economy is going in the wrong direction. >> bret: yeah, you mentioned gas prices. the average gas price as of today stands at 4.9 # dollars
