Office. He is gas lighting. The white house is playing cleanup for him as well and it is not going well. Im Harris Faulkner an you are in the faulkner focus. January 2021, biden took office, inflation was at 1. 4 . That exactly is what he inherited from former President Donald Trump. I dont know if well see that any time soon. Some peoples lifetime. It then skyrocketed to 9 under biden in june of 2022. Republican senator marco rubio in focus on bidens spin on the economy. He was with me yesterday. Biden sounds tone deaf. He is going out there. I think he stopped saying bidenomics but he is bragging about stuff and people are like what is he talking about . He is out of his mind. Harris the white house has persuaded some in the media to buy its line the only problem in the economy is consumer psychology. Were all crazy and thats why the prices are so high, nice. People just think theyre paying 100 more for eggs and it is not true. Well, take a look. Among the many painful prices gasoline is now up again by more than 50 since the start of bidens term. The National Average price for a gallon today is 3. 63. Back then it was 2. 39. Drivers say their dollar doesnt get them very far literally. The cost to fill that thing up drives me absolutely insane. Im a handyman. That is probably half the job, you know what i mean . It means i have to do more jobs. Filling up your car today, it will be gone in the next two days. Harris god bless that handyman. Biden wants to pay all the College Graduate loan fees. He will have to pay through his taxes. Radio host guy benson is in focus today. Lets go to Jacque Heinrich very busy at White House Press secretary briefings. Good job. A little wild over here. One longtime ally of the president who is openly criticizing the Messaging Strategy coming out of 1600 pennsylvania. Ron klain, former chief of staff to biden. Been in biden world for decades teeing off in leaked audio that politico reported on saying that biden is out on the complain trail talking about infrastructure too much. It isnt interesting when Grocery Prices are so high saying he shouldnt be spending his time talking about fing bridges. In a followup interview klain didnt back down from his critique. The white house was on defense after the Producer Price index that tracks wholesale prices showed the steepest increase in 11 months. We didnt get any Statement Today on the ppi index. Why arent we hearing more from the white house about the issues that people are facing at Grocery Stores and paying rent . The State Of The Union the president made very clear what he understands what the americans are facing. And he has talked at almost every event that he has had. Shortly after that exchange the president tweeted today we learned that inflation for Companies Making things in america was 2. 1 over the last year, down 80 from its peaks. Profits are up and higher than before the pandemic. It is time big corporations passed the earnings to consumers in the form of lower prices. This weeks Inflation Report dampened chances the fed cuts Interest Rates any time soon. The news eliminates the possibility of multiple rate cuts this year dragging pessimism about the economy closer to the election. The president defended himself and pointing to how much inflation cooled. 1. 4 when he came into office. All prices are up nearly 19 . The white house pointed to the pandemic, Supply Chain December Wrappingss and the war in ukraine. Harris setting us up for a great conversation. Here is a headline to look at. Why inflation is bidens most stubborn political problem. They argue the president has few tools to combat rising prices which are weighing on his effort to beat donald trump in november. Guy benson, Fox News Contributor host of the Guy Benson Show an fox news radio. Who is President Biden specifically turning off at this Point By Gas Lighting America On what they know is true, prices are high . Ill give you a specific answer, harris, to that question. I was watching a focus group the other day on another network called the undecideds where they had undecided voters trying to pick a candidate from key swing states and the moderator asked the panel how many of you think that Donald Trumps policies would be better for your family specifically . Every single hand went up. When they had the conversation about why, there was a gentleman from michigan and a woman from pennsylvania. Not only were they upset, harris, about the direction of the economy under joe biden, they were specifically angry at him for gas lighting them and not taking accountability and telling the truth about the economy. Those specific voters in two of the most important states in the country arent just dissatisfied with the economy and with joe bidens performance. They are angry at him for not leveling with them. Not being honest with them and they represent, i suspect. A lot of people around the country. Harris americans were hearing and saying the word gas lighting. It is a polite way of saying he is not telling the truth about it and being honest. How does he get away with that and how much trouble is that with his Campaign Team to try to sell that to the public . He is not getting away with it. If you look at the polling on the economy and inflation, his numbers are deep underwater as they have been. Theyve cycled through all kinds of different arguments and talking points. None of it has worked because costs are what they are. 19. 4 higher than when he took office. And our colleague at fox she had nothing and pivoted off to supply chain that wasnt a question. Harris is that because she doesnt know . You have to get this one right because regardless of what you may think people are thinking about the border and they are already telling you is the their number one concern all over the country. He managed to unite everybody about that. When it comes to the economy, that is baseline politics. Democrats have said it. Its the economy, stupid. Everybody has said it. How can you not be ready for that question ever . Thats a good one for karine jeanpierre. Part of the issue, im sympathetic to her on this point. She doesnt have a lot of great substance to work with. Only skillful spin you can try if the underlying facts are bad. And they are. But also if you are at that podium at that address, you should be one of the most effective communicators on earth. I think its safe to say with all due respect she doesnt fit that bill. Harris excellent communicators go to the boss and say theyll hit me again with this. Can i tell them you understand that prices are high and feel the peoples pain. She wouldnt have to spin it. She would have to acknowledge what people are feeling and then maybe they all could be pressed enough to come up with policy. That might be the last day of her job but at least she went out trying. Or she could say you are right about 1. 4 under trump. What the president was broadly speaking to, which has been a factor that has driven inflation among others is this and pivot off to whatever you want to talk about. When the question is the president gave this exact quote which isnt true about inflation and then you respond multiple times like the question was about something completely different, then thats a tough sell. People say what is she doing . What is she talking about . Harris has she caught the cold that he has. The House Subcommittee on the coronavirus pandemic seem to blow up dr. Faucis down playing of the laboratory leak origin theory. People thought it came from the lab in wuhan. Scientists, should we have everybody look at that maybe . Now it may take the whistleblower who has come forward who has given the Committee Emails from one of dr. Faucis top aides. Those emails show dr. David lawrence used his personal email to talk about the pandemic and get around federal transparency laws. Meet me on the private line. He also told the committee during a separate interview quote, i will delete anything i dont want to see in the new york times. Wow. At one point lawrence talks about a 2019 Grant Proposal with a company which wanted funding to create a Novel Coronavirus before the pandemic. To create. To create a Novel Coronavirus before the pandemic. They were working on it. The number highlighted corresponds to a project titled understanding the risk of fat coronavirus emergence. It is raising questions over why dr. Fauci called the Lab Leak Theory a conspiracy so many times and denied there was Government Funding for the research. Senator rand paul says this is game over. This was his own agency. We now have proof that the nih and niaid knew about this proposal and were part of the proposal despite him continuing in public to say he knew nothing of this proposal. This is the smoking gun that ties Anthony Fauci and nih to the funding of research that may well have led to covid19. Harris is it too late to go after fauci . Its a scandal and whether or not fauci himself is ever held accountable for any of this. Some of the facts weve outlined and beyond are pretty damming for him. The under lying damage that he and others have done that their own credibility and Public Health bureaucracies. For a long time the people in charge, the powers that be insisted that the rest of the country just prostrate themselves before the altar of expertise. And over these last few years a lot of people said hang on a second, that actually hasnt gone well for us. It looks like you lied to us and misled us intentionally about some really big issues in order to cover up things that you thought could hurt your side politically or that might hurt your funding moving forward for something, or you have some ideological project or just too proud to admit you were wrong. That has deeply eroded americans faith in a lot of institutions, an unhealthy thing for our society. The people responsible are the ones who pat themselves on the back about experts and referring to them. Harris a couple of the pictures we showed with dr. Fauci was another thing we found out that wasnt true and knew it as a doctor. We see him with the national championship, those were cloth masks. We later found out those wouldnt protect us the way they promised they would be. He had to have known that. Its why surgeons dont wear them in surgery. A different type of mask. The one we were told to wear that wasnt a cloths. It was like watching a dog chase his deal but potentially cost lives. We have to get to the bottom of it. Have a great friday and weekend.

War, miss ricard, war. Rated pg harris f. B. I. Director Christopher Wray with a familiar warning now, americans are in danger. His first warning was about the biden border crisis. Now there is a very real possibility for a coordinated terror attack on american soil. One much like the recent isisk attack in russias capital city. 60 people were killed, 145 injured. Christopher wray was on capitol hill explaining to lawmakers yesterday. Our most immediate concern has been that individuals or small groups will draw some kind of twisted inspiration from the events in the middle east to carry out attacks here at home. But now, increasingly concerning is the potential for a coordinated attack here in the Homeland Akin to the isisk Attack We Saw at the Russia Concert Hall just a couple weeks ago. Harris of course, all that does tie to the border because thats one of the main ways that they are coming through. Justice Correspondent David Spunt with whats going on capitol hill. Direct made it clear the highest he has seen in his career for the threat level and pushing congress to authorize the fisa act, specifically 702. It is being debated now in the house allowing Intelligence Agencies to collect communications of people overseas without a warrant and it is possible that someone in the United States could get swept up in that collection if talking to a suspected person who lives overseas. 702 is crucial to our ability to warn and protect our Critical Infrastructure from hackers in china, in russia, iran, including Cyber Threats to our electricity, water, hospitals. National Security Source told fox news this morning we know that hostile nation adversaries are watching the 702 debate closely. No doubt they are hoping the u. S. Intelligence agencies lose this key capability. Some republicans and democrats are joining together and pushing to reform section 702. They want a warrant to be required when it involves Data Collection of someone in the United States talking to someone overseas. More than 200,000 abuses of fisa over several years. Those occurred before reforms in 2021. Some republicans yesterday say they are just not convinced. Watch this. I dont trust you. I dont think this is necessarily a Funding Problem that we have for your agency as much as a leadership problem. Director wray warned about the threat from china. Chinese government. He said the borough, meaning the f. B. I. , opens a Counter Intelligence investigation into china roughly every 12 hours. Think about that. Harris oh my goodness. We know how many have come across the border. I mean, that is many of them illegally. That is wild. Thank you. Why is President Biden losing black voter support and why is the drop so precipitous and dire . Do you think his white house staff and campaign can ignore it . No. The new poll shows a dramatic drop in his support among black voters. Look for yourself. 57 of black men prefer biden down from 87 in 2020. What has happened in that time . A Biden Presidency. Support is also down 16 among black women. 20 among College Educated black voters and 25 among nonCollege Educated black voters. Here is democrat strategist james carville. I have been very vocal about this. It is horrifying our numbers among younger voters, particularly black younger blacks, younger latinos. Were not shedding them. They are leaving in the droves. Harris a new pin piece titled latino and black voters could elect trump argues even a modest raci
