Good tuesday morning. Thanks very much for joining us this morning. I hope you are having a good morning. I am maria bartiromo. It is tuesday, march 5 super tuesday 8 00 a. M. On the east coast, polls open biggest voting day of the pm primary cameraed super tuesday underway polls open parts of east coast after Supreme Court unanimously ruled to keep President Trump on 2024 primary ballot colorado Supreme Court said not up to states to decide eligibility of someone on the ballot 45th president responded sent a message to President Biden yesterday, watch. President biden number one, stop weaponization. Fight your fight yourself. Dont use prosecutors and judges to go after your opponent to try to damage your opponent ep so you can win an election our people cant stand it the people coming in really cant stand it because they are dying many are dying on the trip up, and dying in country, also, many of the people are criminals they are doing tremendous harm i call it migrant crime i say respectfully to President Biden you have the authorization right now, i did it i didnt go to congress say do i have the right to close i fought congress on its close the borders you can do it right now. Maria earlier in the program i spoke with former acting u. S. Attorney general Matt Whitaker on this historic ruling. Watch. A victory for resume of law i think all americans that believe in you know, voters deciding the future of the republic want as well this is a big deal because it was unanimous 90, in fact the federal government cant be supersedeed by the states pickingings who can be who cant be on the ballot this is a big win i i think a string of victories for President Trump in Supreme Court as we move forward in november. Lee carter i want to undermine what Matt Whitaker said stunning it was 90, not stunning everybody expected as close to unanimous as possible what does that till even liberal judges saw this effort as an effort to obstruct democracy. Lee thats right i spi especially it was so important that it was unanimous because otherwise, people would have fought it you know it was just republican justices that were you know, trying to protrump, there is an extreme mistrust right now of the Supreme Court. It is lowest ever been, 41 Americans Trust the Supreme Court. So fact this is unanimous i think goes a long way, to making sure that people believe no what the ruling is you look at republicans, democrats focusing in fact unanimous vote there are saying that the will of the people will not be suppressed very, very enthusiastic, when you hear from democrats, their focused on what is not in there focused on the fact this is a technicality focused on fact now up to congress, we are trying to draft a bill i think going to backfire though, on the democrats. Because the democrats talking about the at threat it is not republicans threat to o democracy it is across the board a big problem weaponization of government look what theyre doing. Maria despite unanimous ruling democrats still pushing to take trump off ballot some shoring up new legislation to do just that, watch jamie raskin. I am working with the number of my colleagues including, Debbie Wasser sean shuttles Eric Swalwell to revise legislation that we have to set up a process boy which we can determine someone who committed insurrection is disqualitatived by section 3 of the 14 amendment. Cheryl you mentioned Editorial Board at Washington Post said keeping mr. Trump on ballot right call criticized jamie ras kidnap said could be used to excluded trump from from president ial politics even Washington Post claiming, so jamie ras kidnap check yell cream gerry baker points out in the wall street journal this morning, that youve got elites sitting there in new york, and los angeles, ivery tours thumbing their nose down at voters dont understand why so much support for President Trump this is why might be handing him a victory in november because they cannot seem to understand, why are the man still has support and polling ahead of the current president. That is joe biden, the white house is finally wake up to that fact maria. But media has not it seems, on the liberal side. Rebecca from a legal perspective i think clear cut they Read Congress appropriate body to make a decision on someone, qualified or not under that section of the 14th amendment any time a case could be decided at the ballot box by voter instead of adjudication judicial system the you are the court is going to favor that absolutely a win for rule of law that was exactly right.

Welcome back 16 states one territory begin vote in the biggest day of 2024 primary season fox business Grady Trimble is live this morning in ash burn virginia with the latest on super tuesday, grady. Good morning, maria. , we have talked to handful of voters this morning even though pretty quiet behind me right now every one of them if they dont list economy number one issue it is a close second so no doubt as americans head to the polled here in virginia and across the country today they are voting with their wallets, the Biden Administration, likes to point out President Bidens economic record, and out the that but poll after poll Shows Americans feel worse off finally now compared to when he took office so the republican candidates are seizing on that on the campaign trail as part pitch to voters, donald trump and nikki haley promising to get economy on part haley blames rampant spending by democrats and republicans in d. C. Oftentimes blaming former President Trump as well says it is time to put an can theant in the White House Trump on other hand points to his own record, polls show voters trust him over biden to handle the economy, and the former President Trump likes to talk about the lower grocery prices, gas prices, Interest Rates during his time in office, before covid. He says he will get rid of bidenomics bring back what he calls maganomics. In our first term we had record tax cuts greatest in the history of the country greater than reagan tax cuts number one regulation cuts that is what give a us all those jobs, rising wages for citizens of every race religion color and creed. All of this no inflation. If you look at the total delegate count right now former president leads former so you can carolina more than 200 delegates if he wins every delegate not enough to secure gop nomination but enough to get on track to that nomination by perhaps as campaign says, later this month, of course, the former South Carolina governor trying to eat the into that lead as much as possible have a strong perform today herself. Maria grady we are watching it all Grady Trimble this morning, joining me right now oklahoma senator Markwayne Mullin a member of smart Armed ServicesCommittee Thanks so much for being here i know voters in oklahoma are also headed to the polls what are your thoughts on the super tuesday . Well i think trump is going to absolutely close the door on nikki haley here he will win also a southern coins in oklahoma sitting at ranch in oklahoma as soon as finished here to polls voting headed to d. C. They love it here you will see, they love President Trump when you see polls close only victory nikki haley will get the one she has already you know washington, d. C. , doesnt surprise me dont trump, trump not inside politicians washington, d. C. , likes i expect trump will sweep super tuesday hopefully nikki haley get out of the race unify the party look forward to who we should fight next that is joe biden in this administration. Maria and part of the issue here open border shock photos showing smugglers handing out bundling of drugs to alleged gotaways, are Texas DepartmentPublic Safety spokesperson, said this is all happening pg inbetween the ports of entry on private ranches, Border Patrol agents arrested six sexual predators illegally crossing texas, arizona boards hast weekend convicted of sex crimes on children troerm President Trump sounded alarm about what he calls migrant crime asking President Biden to secure the border this was yesterday. Many are dying on the trip up dying in the country also, many of the people are criminals, they are doing tremendous harm i call it migrant crime, it is migrant crime so i say respectfully to President Biden, you have the authorization right now, i did it i didnt go to congress say do i have the right to close i fought congress on it, close the border everything use my policies my policies were great. Are senator, your thoughts, President Biden keeps blaming you and your colleagues he says he needs congresss authority to do something, even though when he walked into white house in first two weeks, he overturned all trumps security at the border. Right, the first 100 days President Trump are overturned 9 that dealt directly with border isnt Anything Congress needs to do other than codify in legislation then you cant play executive orders backandforth from one presidency to the next all the tools he needs he can do right there from his office, there is a reason why, in the last year President Trump was in office, there was less illegal crossings than one monthing in october under joe biden there is a real issue you have here not the mention i dont know if you saw the report kay cpb put out over 350,000 inadmissible aliens meaning illegal or criminal activity in the United States, or in the country to when coming from, flew them to 43 different cities around the country they wont tell us which cities known them to, 350,000 inadmissible means theshl criminals illegal aliens inside United States last year all underneath Biden Administration there isnt one thing congress has to do to keep them florida securing the border can immediately end catch and release, to which 58 individuals apprehended immediately applerolled into the United States can say here indid he have in italy put back remain in mexico close down ability for illegal aliens to claim asylum in places over than legal points of entry multiple things biden could do right now, yet refuses to do it because it is politics to him. This is a National Security issue that isnt politics but that is exactly what the democrats under Biden Administration is doing. Yet, even leadership on the republican side, was pushing money to ukraine, over doing anything on border as recently as a couple weeks ago, now we know that Mitch Mcconnell will be, stepping down, not seeking reelection in enforce south dakota senator, john thune announced running for Senate Republican leader to replace mccon nell november, texas senator john cornyn added his i name i spoke with arkansas senator tom cotton last hour he is pursuing a leadership position not necessarily, mcconnells job when it here is what with he told me. Senator i think a lot of people would like to see you there. Will you go for the job . [chuckling]. I want to be in whatever role i can help my fellow senators President Trump best achieve our shared goals for the american people. Have senator who would you like to see in that role . Well we have a very talented bench underneath Republican Party right now, john thune is a very, very good friend of mine. I think john cornyn barrasso his name has been mentioned rick scott i think going to make announcement today, and all of therm good people i just you know i have a tends when you get into fights like this you lean tw towards closest friends john thune is very Close Friends of mine i was impressed the way he handled the role when Mitch Mcconnell wasnt able to be there because of a sickness dealing with i believe thine has proven leadership anding moving towards President Trump you saw came out endorsed President Trump before Mitch Mcconnell made announcement i think roilgs party needs to unify behind next president of the United StatesPresident Trump, and so i feel he would do a very good job.
