5:03 pm
going for them and going for them and why isn't the e-mail skating on this stuff and as a prosecutor, former prosecutor, it sounds like there's a lot of evidence here and certainly enough probable cause going to a grand jury and seek a indictment and going why he did. elizabeth: he felt the president was mentally competent presented for the jury and that's for the report. going for capable and aiding dmo abetting and that's the concern with the mental state and you can't just for the most part
5:04 pm
inducting willful action of them and mental state and part of them and going for them with a bumbling old man and quite frankly, that's not his responsibility and that would have been or should have been the responsibility of the defense lawyers or team of defense lawyers who would ultimately respect joe biden to present him in such a way and seek the jury notification and a bunch of other different things. elizabeth: what fred is saying to you, keeping the cia directors views on a foreign terrorist organization, keeping notes about senior military officials actions and notes on u.s. secret skiff on national archives during the obama white

5:08 pm
"incoherent from the beginning" a and axios quoting anonymous white house sources are leaking over there. they don't like what they're seeing. vice president harris "missed a opportunity to demonstrate her leadership". what do you think of this? >> she's the border czar. she wasn't near the border one time. she's done nothing the entire biden administration has been awal on the border from the very beginning and suddenly this is the number one issue? we saw up in new hampshire, it's the number one issue this year in the up coming election. now they're scrambling around trying to do something about it. and quite frankly, with this many people coming across, it's just a matter of time it's incredible they'd be thinking
5:09 pm
and fighting amongst themselves again. i have zero sympathy for this administration and border has to be done and taken care of. we know for three years they should have been ending catch and release and construction of the border wall, stop the parol abuse. on and on and on. elizabeth: you're saying there's a lack of leadership inside the white house on the border and axios is also reporting that big fighting between susan rice and kamala harris that susan rice is thinking that it was vice president harris who ruined and wrecked susan rice's chances of being vice president in 2020. that some ovvice president harris' aids mocked and she was former ambassador to the un for obama calling her a staffer. white house insider telling axios these border crisis meetings under the biden white house they're not attended by agency chiefs or leaders.

top secrets that we have number oned a vir especially pea knowledge and the tale of two cities between him and rob walker and wondering if they're finding $50,000 and get off a deal with cocaine joe biden popped in on another meeting and they've been listed out deep and these people are compromised from top to bottom. elizabeth: tony bobulinski is a decorated person and from the energy department and he's testifying that the china company cefc permanently tarted joe biden is hunter biden to infiltrate and compromise the obama white house and the obama white house and doj red flagged
5:19 pm
this chinese cfc company as a known surrogate of chinese communist party. >> yes, ma'am, i just left part of that testimony not 15 minutes ago and mr. bobulinski is very precise and he speaks very well and he doesn't have to use notes and interesting thing about it is he gave them with meet at meetings and very precise and witness and i would say everything that i would not take with a grain of salt and i would take it as a grain of truth. elizabeth: he's also testifyingg that they purposely set up a complex scheme of payments and wire transfers and shell companies for joe biden to hide behind to "maintain plausible deniability". so the more you dig into this and the dc restaurant meeting and rob walker testifying on february 28th and james biden testifies next week. what you said about rob walker. he's a biden insider testifying joe biden met with hunter and

the head of china's cefc at four seasons restaurant in dc sometime in early 2017. biden's showing up to help them close a $3 million deal then they started making money from that? was he the deal closer? >> it's apparent he was and joe biden and i've said this all along and i've said this on your show and six months ago joe biden using mental capacity as an excuse to duck the charges and clear about what's going on on the depth of what they got. with all the people coming over our border and finding out one of the largest groups are chinese, we better be very cautious about what's going on where all the possibility of the million chinese where they go. it's clear the white house is allowing that to happen. elizabeth: sticking on this story, rob walker testifying the biden family last name would "get people in the door to do
5:21 pm
deals". the biden name was their calling card in overseas deals and the thing is it's rob walker and he was the one who reportedly took -- who hunter biden told take the $1 million and send payments to biden, my sister-in-law, haley biden and more and more you're seeing this testimony coming in and more details and claiming what was going on. >> he cut them out of the deal because of the deal and he realized it was the biden name that got him to the time-based and the million dollar deal and joe biden went back into the meeting and going for the

5:29 pm
over. fed drills down on core number without food and energy prices and that's remained unchanged at 3.9%. it's higher because wages are higher. that's the stickier inflation because of wages and stickier because people are still spending with low unemployment rate and the problem is those people are spending on credit cards because of what's in the report. if you look at numbers from december to january, one month, for things that people need, auto insurance up 1.4%. that's five times higher than overall inflation month over month. insurance up 21% year over year. eggs up 3.4% from december to january. bread it up 0.3% in that time, tomatoes up 4.6% from december to january. economists worry about these numbers. jot innation fight is not over. we've not killed this boogie man of higher inflation. the report shows that and my fear is we'll see a recurrence of what we saw in the 1970s with
5:30 pm
high inflation and come down a bit, sandra, then go back up again and go down a bit and come back up again. reporter: the white house press secretary saying they don't look at just one number as a trend. listen. >> we look at trends and not read too much into data for one month. that's how we operate here. others do as well. we certainly understand there's more work to be done to lower costs. this is what americans are feeling. >> they feel poorer in the paycheck and seeing everything is more extensive. liz. elizabeth: edward lawrence, thank you so much. let's show the viewer what's going on with the u.s. stock markets today as edward was pointing out. welcome to the show wall street pro carol roth.
5:31 pm
carol, you saw the stock market react to today's inflation report. what do you think is going on and white house is getting criticized for talking about the president talking about shrinkflation, corporate greed. what's happening here? >> last time i heard shrinkage used as an excuse was from george on seinfeld and he was in the pool. the fact that the biden administration wants to say that's the reason that we're having these issues and then the biden administration wanting to window dress the economy with the deficits to gdp more than two times the historic average. it department need to be that way and wanted that economic
5:32 pm
growth and we're unfortunately paying the price quite literally and steve moor said in that clip, this could be going on and quite sticky particularly because of the fiscal dominance. elizabeth: john kearney brought this up. cleveland fed is saying the median, the median inflation rate for january was 0.5% and annualized around -- the trend is 4.9%. the cleveland trend. you can talk about inflation at biden white house and, carol, you also democrats are saying that natant caulk about age and -- senate democrats worry about age and boarder and crime and much more. what do you think? >> yeah, i don't think it's left
5:33 pm
and we've seen him on air for a listening time and it's sad this has become political and it's elder abuse and our nation's security so they should be concerned about that not if they're going to lose in the polls because he's not competent in all the bad policy he's made. elizabeth: watch press secretary karine jean-pierre on why the president won't be taking a cognitive test in his upcoming physical exam and listen former speaker nancy pelosi. watch this. >> i'm just going to say what dr. o'connor -- what he said to me about a year ago. the president proves every day how he operates, how he thinks. by dealing with world leaders and making really difficult decisions on behalf of the american people whether it's domestic or national security. >> there are deputies, a lot of
5:34 pm
democrats with concerns about his age and mental fitness. how much of, you know, him stumbling over words or saying mexico instead of egypt. what do you say to people about their concerns? >> what -- i think people make mistakes and age is one thing, that's an objective fact. age is objective and it's all relative. he's younger than i am so what do i have to say about his age? elizabeth: that doesn't sound like a ringing endorsement from nancy pelosi. carol, abc ipso's poll and 86% of americans say he's too old to serve another term and mirrors abc poll. that poll shows 73% of democrats say he's too old to run again. >> he's showns every day his cognitive ability and doesn't need to take a test. it's not just pure number but
5:35 pm
how he's functioning at that number and unfortunately that creates a national security issue for us. elizabeth: carol, you're always terrific. we appreciate you coming on the show. thank you so much. thanks for joining us. move onto this, house lawmakers moving to voit again to impeach secretary mayorkas today. there's a new concern the northern border with canada heading into a border crisis too. hillary vaughn live from capitol hill with the latest. reporter: good evening, liz. house republicans say the biden administration is turning a behind eye to the northern boarder and in the process creating a blind blind shot for the national security and illegal border crossings are surging up north and 241% increase in illegal border crossers and 85% of suspects on the terror watch list have been apprehended crossing the northern border. republicans say it's easier for migrants to get in up north.
5:36 pm
congressman mike kelly telling fox business due to flood of illegal crossings at southern border, they're finding it quicker and easier to fly into canada and cross into the united states through the wide open northern border. the reality is the northern border remains unprotected and overexposed under the biden mayorkas border crisis. resent surge in part because it can be easier for migrants to get 24 ands can fly to canada without a visa and take an uber to the boarder and basically walk over. there's no fence or wall lining the northern border between canada and united states. meanwhile the white house is bracing for house impeachment vote of dh secretary mayorkas and blasting republicans for not doing their job and working on a border deal with democrats. they should drop this and focus
5:37 pm
on the bipartisan agreement instead of focusing on another political stunted. reporter: if they're successful in impeaching this time, this is their second attempt. they believe they'll have the votes to do this shortly. in about an hour, liz, that doesn't mean that mayorkas would be immediately fired and senate needs their own impeachment trial and once they do that, they would likely quickly dismiss this. liz. elizabeth: so the impeachment vote is around 6:30? reporter: that's what we're hearing around that time. elizabeth: thank you, hillary. joining us now is antony d'esposito from homeland security. great to have you on, sir. >> how are ya. elizabeth: this is our second installment 06 our misleading america series this week. let's get your roadway action to dhs secretary al hondo mayorkas and watch his performance here and he's been misleading america. watch this.
5:38 pm
>> the board service connected closed and secure. it is my testimony that the border is secure people who do not use available legal pathways to enter the u.s. face tough consequences including a minimum five year ban on reentry and potential criminal prosecution. we are prepared for this transition and will enforce our laws. we are ready to process and sweetly remove part-time without a legal basis to remain in the u.s.. >> do you bear responsibility for what's happening at the border for what the president himself called a crisis? >> it certainly is a crisis and we don't bear responsibility for a broken system. elizabeth: okay.
5:39 pm
elizabeth: president biden did 94 connective orders wiping out president biden's border policies. there's millions of crossings under the white house. enforcement arrests are going multiple higher than what they were under the trump white house. how can he say the border is secure? vascularized well, it's not secure and mayorkas is delusional. it's clear he wasn't ready and not prepared and failed the american people. it's the fundamental goal of the house of representatives, fundamental duty to hold those accountable and allowing invasion into the united states of america and that's what mayorkas has done and it's been intentional and house homeland security under leadership of chairman green, we have gone through the five phases and gone through 13 month investigation. i spent a career in the nypd, and this is an investigation that i would be proud to present to a prosecutor. i hope tonight my colleagues come to the cross-examination that mayorkas needs to go. he's failing the american people and lying to the american people. i think we have the votes.
5:40 pm
elizabeth: is he backing him? >> he s. he was on the hill and looks great and healthy and great to have majority leader back with us. elizabeth: sit tight and show the viewer with the border that totally rebuts and refutes the statement that the board service connected closed and secure. 8.9 million crossings and nearly 150 terrorists caught between ports of entry including the northern and southern border, more than 41,000 criminal felons encountered, 1.7 million got aways and nearly 1800 gang members caught including ms13 and we see more homicide charges, assault charges, against these criminal legal aliens crossing the border. again, congressman, we're focusing on crime. america is about legal legal
5:41 pm
immigration. how can mayorkas says the border is secure? joe had can't. he surrendered our southern border and in new york city, i was a proud nypd detective, two of my brother law enforcement officials attacked by migrants in the street. attacked, beaten, then they fled. that's the system that's been set up, especially at places like new york where the democrats in the state legislature and implemented criminal justice reform and cashless bail without ever conferring with the people that put handcuffs on criminals. the mayor of the city of new york said this migrant issue is going to destroy new york city. not just about the quality of life and crimes they're committing. the fact we're turning this city over to migrants. elizabeth: congressman d'esposito, thank you so much. good to see you.
5:42 pm
>> thank you, stay safe. elizabeth: comment at a timer kailey mckey white and eric swallow and spending money on luxury trips and major expense when is he reportedly only has something like three staffers. but first, check in with friends dagen and sean. what's you got coming up next hour on your hit show the bottom line? >> hey, emac. thank you. senate passing a $95 billion funding package for ukraine and israel and no word for the security. congressman greg steube to discuss and california senator want as $50 minimum wage in california. crazy, monica crowley going to chat about that. >> jimmy failla on the new york times down playing joe biden's cognitive decline comparing him to paul mccartney and jane fonda, if that's a good thing. and then guy benson on the latest poll putting donald trump 35 points ahead of nicky haley.

conservative commentator kaylee mcghee white can figure this one out. good to see you. california democrat eric swalwell spending a lot of exam pain donations and campaign cash on luxury trips with yachts, limousines, uae, london, germany, five-star hotels and up for reelection for the california house seat. kaylee, why does he need to be buying luxury trips overseas? >> that is a great question. keep many mind this comes at at the same time that swalwell has been racking up tens of thousands in debt on his personal credit card and failed to pay back his own student loans so there's clearly a pattern here, which is that swal swalwell is not that great with money and likes to push the boundary of what's allowed in campaign fines and this is the second year he's spent three times his salary with luxury
5:49 pm
cash. football game tickets for this, luxury accommodations in dubai, he even asked a federal election commission last year to allow him to use campaign cash to pay for a nanny to watch his kids while he travels overseas. this is not a serious person. these are not serious ex-pepses, and i hope thatten -- experiences and i hope that someone in the ethics committee take as look at it. elizabeth: his campaign cash he's spending, you know, you would think it would be for the california voter to talk to the virginia voter about what he's do -- california voter on what he's doing to hep them in dc but buying with campaign cash this luxury travel accommodations, and he spent more than house speaker -- then house speaker nancy pelosi in the 2022 election cycle. he's spent like more than $580,000 on travel. pelosi spent more than $480,000. >> right. this points to a larger problem with many elected officials is they don't see their job as a
5:50 pm
public service. they're thinking about the benefits they can reap from it in exploiting it instead of working hard for constituents and he should be thinking about how he can court california voters to convince them why he deserves another term in the house. but he's instead using campaign cash to court big money donors and appears to be the only constituents he cares about. maybe it's not a form of legal corruption according to the fec, but it's certainly a corruption of the job that he's been entrusted. elizabeth: yeah, go through it. he's spent more than $90,000 in campaign cash on overseas trips including 5-star hotel in dubai with a private beach and eight restaurants and eats out at places like the four seasons and spent nearly $47,000 in air fare on united and american airlines and $45,000 in private security, thousands on limousines and luxury cars. you've got to wonder when the

california voter, when people of california will sit up and take notice to what he's doing. >> i hope so. i hope so soon. so many of the other elected officials in congress do the exact same thing. again, maybe he had a legitimate reason to be in dubai. maybe it was a legitimate campaign seventh fail to see how that might be the case. perhaps it is. he should, he owes his voters an explanation one way or another. elizabeth: got it. kaylee mckey white, thank you for -- mcgee white, thank you for joining us the only thing. >> you as well. elizabeth: a new setback for the president's push to make you buy only electric cars. engineers saying wait a second, this is a cost lyeny. electric -- ironny. electric cars are heavier than gas and will tear up and are tearing up u.s. infrastructure and the president is spending $3 trillion to fix. climatedepot.com marc morano joining us next on "the evening

5:57 pm
you make of engineers saying that the heavy electric cars, it will tear up the u.s. infrastructure roads, highways and bridges and parking garages because they ware more than gas cars. >> i think it is a very valid point. keep in mind average smaller car can be 1500 to 1,000 pounds heavier in the electric vehicle version, and pickup truck almost 2 thousand pounds that puts stress on the parking garages, and exit ramps and highways, and 18 cent a gallon federal gasoline car is not paid by the electric vehicles. this is from massive mandates and subsidies from the federal government, the electric cars get a free ride on purchasing and driving and fees and taxes on other end, this is a situation we have to
5:58 pm
correct. the biggest thing with electric cars is they are forced upon us, if you have a car that is tearing up the highway, they are not paying anything to keep maintenance and they are primary additional stress to the highways, the bottom line is don't outlaw the competition, that is what biden administration is doing. >> another issue. don't electric car batteries, they weigh like 1,000 pounds and gas images 60, does that not make electric cars more dangerous in car crashes and don't they have a lower center of gravity than gas cars, could that make them more deadly on impact? >> yes, it can, and would and does. that is another issue. with the whole trend in recent years to make gas powered cars eco- friendly, light, smallest possible, the smart cars, now the big heavy electric vehicles, it
5:59 pm
is the disproportionate balance. you will have a higher death rate and injury rate, in place of cases like europe where france is banning short haul pl flights, 2 hours are less, they means more people are forced on the roads. and the electric car battery, that takes about a a half million pounds of material, rare earth, mining and other materials to make it.. >> when you see the construction industry getting warned they have to build stronger parking garages, that parking garages with bridges will quote likely collapse because of the weight of the heavier vehicles. does that sound like the biden white house took this
6:00 pm
into account. >> no, only saving grace is that biden white house is incompetent and people are still not buying ev 's, there are not enough yet to cause them, but if prow jec to 2030 and 2050 and the electric vehicle taking over that is serious road damage and highway damage, that has structural engineers worried, biden administration is incompetent and clueless. >> thank you marc mareno, we appreciate you joining us. >> tomorrow mollie hemingway and ford o'connel, a jam-packed series installment for you, on misleading america. thank you for watching us on fox business, time for dagen and sean. dagen: thank you, emac. >> sure. ♪ ♪ dagen: i am dagen mcdowell.
