that's all for this initial edition of kudlow, i am david asman. have a wonderful happy easter weekend but first book liz mcdonald is up next. have a wonderful easter you yourself. >> happy easter to you and your loved ones. let's get right to work you talk grossman jason chaffetz and executive officer at the police department intelligence division

paul mauro. new video coming in, kathy hochul asked reportedly to leave the wake for nypd officer jonathan dirt diller 21 prior arrest. this has never happened before. cops look like they have had it politicians against them. letitia james, what do you th think? >> i think the police are standing up for themselves, they know who helps them and truly cares about them and is therefore a follow-up. they are in a moment of warning, he got this officer whose slain, beautiful wife, infant child and probably didn't call in advance or ask if she could be there and maybe make comments or remarks and she was rebuffed and good for them. it's a sad moment but her policies have been nothing but

hurt nypd and police in general. >> paul, what do you think? the cattle think i like anything that takes the focus off the police officer but i think there is likely no advanced work done because she probably knows what she would have gotten back so she decided to come get a quick facetime and the follow-up and leave. actions speak louder than words, she's nothing but absentee, she's never hesitated to jump on top of the police, anti- police messaging. she's in a position bully pulpit, she could help in the city but she doesn't do it and she realistically is reaping what she's so. >> process for backing bail reform that lets criminals walk. one of the government walked free on a gun charge last sp spring. let's listen to former president

trump, he spent time with officers widow yesterday, they prayed together and talked about how he was a hero and hugged her grandmother, a round of applause for his kindness. listen to former president trump president biden not come into the lake but going to the fundraiser. >> i think politically he can't support the police. i think he's making a mistake but i think politically is baseball let him support the police. they want to shy away from it and they didn't even call the family. you don't have to be a rocket scientist to note even a call but i'm not sure they would take his call. >> president trump is right, tender moments and you can make a call, you can reach out, do something but evidently they didn't and you don't want this to be overtly political and the

peak of morning going on but at the same time the alleged perpetrator in this murder has 21 prior arrest difficult to look and say why is he still on the street? >> how do you square this -- we had a big show of forced from anti- israel protesters disrupting the obama clinton event, even top obama official david axelrod agreed it's a good look for president biden here. >> first of all really have to bring in reinforcement because i don't think is the most trusted him to handle a pep rally like this on his own so he brought in the last two residents. as a result of the policing necessary for protesters, cops couldn't even go to the wake. again, they are at an event where tickets cost $500,000.

using would oversee hundred thousand clear in one place in his life? people in his town who have that kind of money only have a because of people like jonathan diller putting themselves on the line. >> the day of officers wake, the day of his wake media kept repeating the white house narrative claiming crime is dropping but cherry picking the data, crime is up since before the pandemic. watch media only compared to just last year. watch. >> on think we should mention in terms of what the numbers tell according to the fbi, major crime is it is across country down here in new york city according to the nypd, major crime in new york city done 2.3% from this time last year. >> crime and integration are central to the argument trump will make you want to change, you want to change president because you're mad about the border and crime.

look at crime statistics nationally, most violent crimes are done. new york police department statistics, most by the concert on. property crimes are up, quarter vehicle caps on up. >> msnbc put a reporter at the weight making this claim that crime is down. we will show the data, this is an analysis, crime is up. more homicides, more carjacking, by the offensives since 2019. let us the way to look at it when the entire american justice system got derailed by radical left-wing policies that put american communities and neighborhoods and cops at risk. your reaction? >> some of those acts will go down if you don't prosecute them when you let people back on the street, the only number that matters to the diller family and greater new york lease department in all of us across the country who never met the man but are grateful for his life of service, it's 21 is the

21 prior arrest that person had and is on the street. i don't understand i also don't understand why president biden and the first lady couldn't also be in massapequa. what is it, 40 miles away every resource at the disposal of the president of the united states, marine one for goodness sakes. if you wanted to make the effort, he could have done something privately with the family but chose not to. that is what is so troublesome, it's where his priorities lie and everybody knows it. >> what do cops say about that? obviously displeased. he's the sitting doesn't, he would have been received respectfully family would have. back even further, a phone call, why would he not make a phone call? that alone would have criticism he's getting because back he wouldn't even say laken riley's name. he's afraid of his face, losing

anti- copper narrative for the heavy progressives turn orders out and that's where we are and you have a party whose decided the jonathan diller of the world the bad guy. >> thanks for joining us, happy easter, thank you for joining us. the spring and former senior advisor to the senate judiciary, it's good to have you, click got more reports coming in, president biden is angry behind the scenes about media covering holes going down at historic lows. this new goal, trump ahead of biden 39 -- 38. what you make of the fact that he's angry about media coverage here? >> it's quite be good to be back with you. democrats including joe biden think the media act on their behalf and shouldn't cover just basic facts which is that joe biden has approval ratings

overall with voters deeply unpopular handling key issues like immigration, economy and inflation, foreign policy underwater sometimes by 20 or 30 points and donald trump in recent fox news old beating head-to-head 50 -- 45 so you can't find a couple the last few months where he spent neck and neck with the president. president trump is beating and keep swing states like michigan, arizona, georgia, ohio. nevada and beating him on key issues that matter to voters. immigration and the economy so of course joe biden will complain the mainstream media is covering this but these are the facts and everyone knows it. >> the other thing that's happening, the magazine purporting president biden plans to avoid interviews national media and he's going to do local media reports and swing states that this story is coming in, democrats in congress are so afraid trump will in, pressuring biden white house to quickly

enact to cement in place biden's agenda again because they are afraid trump is going to win according to the news. they're talking about putting in place rules for electric cars, student loan bailouts, epa test today stricter emissions standards to force all buses and vans, everything america general electric in two years time. we will begin deeper later in the show. your thoughts? >> there definitely worried about joe biden losing to donald trump trying to get your agenda that has not helped america when talking about this issue specifically and it makes us mark depend on china in a lot of ways more expensive so this is not a good issue, a host of other issues that pumped trillions of dollars in the economy. record high inflation two years ago we saw eight, 9% inflation and things are the cost of living higher becoming

unaffordable to buy a house, gas and groceries are still high so the economy was better under president donald trump and joe biden has wrecked this economy. let's by qc a lot of water against president trump as well trying to take them off the ballot which was unsuccessful in trying to not only indict him but interfere with the foreign election which is hopefully not successful. >> thank you for joining us, it's good to see you. we have a hot hour for you. tonight, tony gonzales, fox news contributor joe concha. new report senator chuck schumer's office set the date with home and security mayorkas plus texas is raising for a caravan of thousands heading to the texas border after mayorkas and guatemala denounced texas border crackdown. we got that. revenge of the rnc, rnc limiting

more of your money. edward lawrence from d.c. with more. >> president joe biden and full campaign mode blanketing new york city yesterday and today campaign fundraiser while former president donald trump in new york for a court hearing facing one of the many charges brought by democrat deice biden's department of justice. the president trying to turn around the sagging poll numbers, pulling finds a majority of registered voters say they are worse off financially now and for years ago. the fundraiser last night president biden says election about democracy. >> a real inflection in history. things are changing, this guy denies global warming and want to get rid of the only roe v. wade. all the things he's doing are so old. speaking of old. [laughter] [applause] old and out of shape.

anyway. >> the drop off our president bill clinton and barack obama to reagan 26 million in campaign contributions out one event. most from celebrities at the radio city music hall for the event by yesterday former president trump attended the wake up and officer killed by a repeat violent offender constantly released from jail. >> the president andres what's more disgusting is joe biden have nothing to say about the fallen officer in new york city. he was in york and could have stopped by but he didn't and had nothing to say. karine jean-pierre had nothing to say an account that much more disgusting. >> president biden wrecked in the campaign cash, latest inflation report shows inflation rising and incomes are up spending is more people to sustain their way of life given the higher prices. >> thank you so much. joining us now, bob good from house budget, good to see you. we got a new poll of 1500 voters

of the central brookings institution. eight out of ten voters said prices systematically are increasing faster than wages. >> absolutely, american people are something under this record inflation, 40 year high inflation, 20 year high interest rates. crushing the american people suffering in these policies. >> barack obama at the biden fundraiser last night blamed the quote suppression of unions bill clinton seemed to compare the current situation with inflation when hillary clinton lost in former president trump quote told obama's -- good economic years from barack obama trump all his own years of good economic conditions from obama, what you think? >> trump policies were working for americans as we know, every

demographic experienced about economy, rising wages for the first time in many years and the pillars of the trump economy with low taxes, less regulation and as president increased regulation, thousands from the average family from what was under president trump. president trump got seven date for every new regulation biden reversed that so president trump with low taxes and regulations, low energy costs and keep gas. barack obama, excuse me, joe biden under barack obama's influence abolished those policies and american people are suffering as a result. >> the whole at the brookings institution presented their found across the board women voters, black voters, minority voters, democrat think inflation will stay high in the coming year. democrats are equally as likely to blame president biden for inflation as they've talked about corporate greed. what's interesting, democrat governor tim walt using a

quarter term and by mcdonald's on mornings with maria. watch this. >> what starts to happen is this is somewhat a referendum on the frustration you feel and while america's economy is better than any other one, prices are still up so there is a general malaise attached to the president. gasoline prices, almost 50% since joe biden took office, food price of 20%, airline tickets up 31% and the list goes on and on. this is making it difficult for small business owners, middle income americans had working americans and poor americans. >> you heard democrat governor say use of malaise word about biden, your reaction? personal consumption expenditures major the fed relies on that, i did i'm two and a half% the board versus your earlier it was a 2.4% in january, what you think of

governor fault using this word about biden? >> most of us remember jimmy carter with think of joe biden, a similar situation and i can remember the evening that election in 1980 when the polls say it was to post a call, not a prediction the poll numbers ronald reagan but when a landslide victory. let's hope that is what will happen this time. i have young and might budget committee and have had her for a hearing to question her and she could not or would not tell us how much this president's budget he put out, she was there to discuss the budget, how much it would increase debt by over ten years and couldn't tell us $18 trillion taken from 34 trillion to 52 trillion. >> the people running the show don't know the numbers. thank you for joining us, good to see you. coming up, fox news contributor joe concha, big debate breaking out. the rnc talking about potentially limiting nbc's

mayorkas had a senate majority leader also dismissed the charges. >> is upset, the impeachment of mayorkas is absurd, not one drop of evidence that leads to any kind of charge of impeachment and we are going to handle it and the best way possible. >> does the democrat-controlled senate likely to move dismissed charges against mayorkas when congress returns from easter recess. republicans don't have the votes to convict two thirds needed and they don't want to put vulnerable democrats in that position. >> thank you much, it's good to have you on the show. let's welcome back to the show from house home and security tony gonzales, you heard the report about senator chuck schumer, we hear roll call regarding the senate will start the public trial, security mayorkas on april 11 but senator schumer, what do you make of senator schumer saying there are

no high crimes and misdemeanors here? >> good evening and thank you for having me on. it's easter weekend, there's a lot to be ankle and grateful for but we have to be vigilant of what's happening, our freedoms are taken from us, our families and communities are unsafe so enough of the politics, it's clear is open border crisis caused americans lives to change. in a negative way. in some cases, people happen killed because of it so regardless of what the administration is doing, they have to realize you have to do something different and that starts at the top. of course when joe biden is no longer in office but at the very minimum, they can bring up articles of impeachment and hold the administration accountable for the countless number of american deaths and that is what the house has done and i urge my senate colleagues to do the s same. >> let's get your reaction, he was in guatemala bashing texas is new border crackdown laws

saying it should be overturned, watch this. >> it is are strongly held you as a matter of law, a law proposed by the state of texas, it's our strongly held view it is unconstitutional and our hope and competence the courts will strike it down with finality. >> why are they saying that? show footage from a massive caravan of thousands of illegal aliens heading to the border in el paso, texas. why is he telling guatemala that? >> i am sick and tired of this administration playing politics. the guatemalan president previously was very conse conservative, very pro-life and the biden administration ignored him. as soon as there was a change in government, now more socialist,

they show up immediately and talking to them. i'm done with the politics and your blaming the state of texas trying to protect citizens, he saw the video that came out last week, we were exhausted at the border, we are so tired of it and you see while they -- some of these criminals may cross in eagle pass and el paso in my district, that's not where they are ending up, they are committing crimes and making us unsafe so slap in the face to go to another country and talk about texas. >> force in cities and towns have to pay for this policy. i saw officers -- many have prior convictions for drug trafficking and this was a dragnet across 25 different jurisdictions including major cities like boston, seattle and d.c. nearly half of those arrested had previously been deported,

what you think? >> i should scare all americans because you see these images on tv and get can't help do you. it can absolutely happen to you wherever your city is, big or small i met with the director of ice and he told me we are a law enforcement organization and i want to get back to enforcing the loss so part of what we tried to do in congress is forced sanctuary cities to work with federal law enforcement agencies like ice to detain these people and ultimately deport them. this stops when we deport people to come over illegally. we already have the list and they are abundant throughout the country round them up and deport them before they kill americans. >> thanks for joining us, good to see you. let's welcome to the show joe concha, it's great to have you back on. what you make of the reports the republican national committee is

talking about whether to commit nbc's access to the rnc's convention the summer, this is after network fired ron mcd mcdaniel, what you make of this story? >> i personally one put restrictions on nbc news because we remember what happened when the trump white house will pass after he reacted unprofessional and obnoxious. they play into the hands of making him the story which they love and turn him into a martyr the rnc does the same with nbc news on the same label. saving democracy and saying authoritarians are keeping free press out of the convention so i would allow them in their but no one from the rnc or major republican has to sit down for an interview and no trump supported republicans will meet the press again given what we saw this week where they completely lost their minds over the hiring of one person may say

nice things about trump or's policies and the way they reacted was beyond unhinged and childish but at the same time as a news organization, they are hurting themselves so the rnc shouldn't help probably them up by banning them. >> maybe what you're saying, the strategy is have them come in, sit down with the anchors on air and you know what rattles journalist more than anything, getting questioned back. george w. bush did that with kt couric, and george stephanopoulos. how about questioning them, putting the douglas on the hot seat? >> mid segment you make me change my mind, that makes total sense. you could challenge them. what i would do say a major republican sat down and she began asking questions about climate change or january 6 or

the trump trials, i would say the top issues according to gallup asked voters, one of the most important just to you, inflation, crime and immigration and foreign policy, why are you asking me about any of those things about energy, education? you're right, you asked questions back and put them in the hot seat, i don't think it would go well, great idea. >> do you think rachel maddow, jen psaki, lawrence o'donnell, how do you think they would react to they were questioned back with facts? we were told facts, what they do they were shown facts as you pointed out at the rnc, they were shown what you're saying is wrong, how would they react? >> like they did this week, or-year-old who were told they couldn't have on candy at the carnival. if joe were asking the

questions, if i were a major republican, i would take didn't you publicly entertain donald trump's running mate in 2016 and interviewed trump 40 times before the election? what changed? jen psaki was doing the interview saying didn't you negotiate your contract while serving as white house press secretary? isn't that an ethical breach? why do you still push russia collusion to this day and cultural on the kremlin from the report said otherwise? could go on and on that -- i would pay that to watch that frankly. >> why did you high before a week you have trump tax returns when you only had to cover pages? joe concha, come back soon, we love having you on. happy easter to you. we got growing concerns among u.s. diplomats, russia is coming it knows at the biden white house, selling oil to north korea, biden zba today issued a major new rule, significant

tonight. >> thanks for having me, a grim milestone, one year since evan was detained and his family speak now saying despite the painful year, they are amazed to see his and remarkable quick condition and remains to keep your time. this is footage of last year, we 65 days since he was taken into custody, 32-year-old "wall street journal" reporter was arrested in russia on a work trip, he is accused of being a spy but 12 months later russia has yet to provide any evidence. the white house completely denies allegations calling him wrongfully detained. the "wall street journal" was blank with the headline, his story should be here. instead, evan has spent the last year in jail. he gets one hour a day to stretch his legs in a courtyard. reporters 23 hours locked in a jail cell. washington says moscow is using americans as bargaining chips.

cozying up to. russia, iran, other authoritarian regimes. they for been on cuba and venezuela, it's no prize but we still need to continue sanctions and marginalize best we can. >> let's listen to former president trump on what he is worried about and how he wants to fix u.s. energy. >> a great nation three years ago and now we are a nation and decline. we are going to turn it around so fast, it's going to happen so fast, we are going to drill and use the money to lower your taxes even further. the biggest tax cut in history and we are going to pay off national debt. we are going to drill baby dr drill. right away. >> your reaction? clinical reports climate change democrat environmental advocates are slamming the biden white house for quote demoralizing

young voters approving pipelines and fossil fuel projects. u.s. energy pumping historic oil right now. >> they are living in diluted reality. they can't understand -- the world uses 100 million barrels of oil a day. that's not just going to go away and joe biden said in the state of the union last year also fuels, we make use also fuels for another ten years, ridiculous. of course we will. we have an abundance. the house republicans have done all of the above reproach. we need to live within the bounds of reality. if you have seen joe biden's policies and raised gas prices at the pump 50% since he took office in electricity cost 28% we need to unleash american energy sector and last thing, refusing to issue permits for exports and liquefied natural gas is a gift putin.

>> sixteen states suing over that. u.s. judge ruled against biden white house nursing states, they were trying to force the state to measure and report the amount of greenhouse gas emissions from any vehicles on any of the u.s. highways inside other states. there's that. not any people didn't realize how aggressive the biden white house has been. also, the biden white house looks like they want to kill the u.s. economy. the epa announced historically toughest rules to date forcing all america's trucks, buses, garbage trucks, buses, city buses and going electric in about two years time. what that destroy bridges and roads the heavyweight of batteries there? baltic destroy the u.s. economy? >> what paves the way to hell

again? good intentions. they are not living within the bounds of reality. the american electric grid cannot handle the transition quickly. we will need 20 to 50% more capacity and how is that going to happen in two years? it's not going to happen. about the cost and what about the range or semitruck? they will not have near the reins. it's going to be diesel or natural gas. >> what a story, let's stay on it. thank you for being with us tonight. >> thanks, liz mcmoore on this story, they are saying the quiet part out loud. democrats hope president biden's student loan bailout will buy votes for him in 2024. critics about those who don't go to college paying for those who do. wall street nancy, she's fired

up and ready to take on next on "the evening edit". ♪

elizabeth: joining us now, laugh arer tengler investments' ceo nancy tengler. it's good to see you again, nancy. okay, this story, democrats are saying the quiet part out loud. it is about buying votes with

taxpayer money in biden's student loan wailout. democrats -- bailout, they hope it will get biden more votes to win. what do you think? >> liz, i taught college for a number of years, and the only thing i learned from that that experience is that the primary beneficiary of student loan programs were the universities themselves. in the last 20 years tuition's up 158%. and and after inflation, almost 60%. meanwhile, students accumulated these monstrous mounds of debt. but i will say this, the president has forgiven about $4 -- 4 million borrowers to the i tune of $144 billion. that's a lot of money, but there's still 40 million student debt borrowers outstanding with a trillion dollars in debt. if i were one of those students, i would be or very angry about this program. and you knowing it's going to incure to the president's benefit -- ininure to the president's benefit. when the department of education launched this program, they

promised the american taxpayer that the department of education would earn $6 -- 25 years later we know we're losing almost $9 per $1000 lent, $115 billion in profits turned in to°. elizabeth: well, you know, the whole thing, it's just unfair for people when didn't go to college to foot the bill for those who did. those who did go to college usually come from the upper brackets. so working class footing the bill for them. nearly a dozen attorneys general sued the biden white house to block bind's latest version of his student loan bailout. the supreme court already said this is the unconstitutional. congress didn't approve this. you know, what you're saying, nancy, a lot of american voters are saying this is really unfair. let's listen to them. watch. >> i'm currently not a fan because that's just going to make everyone else's taxes higher because someone's going to have to pay for i. >> >> i don't really think the government can, can say, oh, this person doesn't have to pay when the next door neighbor

already paid theirs. >> i keep on thinking about all the people who paid their loan back and then all of a sudden there's this gift to some other people. >> for myself, you know, who had student loan are before with, then -- some kind of, like, damn, i wish i would is have had it. >> i haven't been putting into a 401(k) because i've been aggressively paying off my student loans. >> how do you bring the costs down, that's really the main thing. elizabeth: you know, tuition at a colleges now topping $90,000 the a year with. tufts and wellesley and boston university and yale reeding the -- leading the back. -- the back pack. they're gouging middle class families as the biden white house is giving them more money via a three bailouts. they're not fixing the tax-free status of of these fat cat academics, really sticking it to middle class families. they should be hit with a racketeering case. >> it is, it is a subsidy of the

university system at the expense of the average american. i couldn't agree with you more, liz. and it also a encourages students to take on debt that a they'll never be able to pay back while, as you pay out, the universities are increasing tuition at a rapid clip. so i think this needs to be an issue that a taxpayers are outrage rahed about and that they start applying pressure because -- to the government. this is not the american way. elizabeth: it's not fair. it's just totally unfair. nancy tengler, you're so smart. happy easter to you. thank you so much for joining us. and happy easter to everybody out there. i'm elizabeth macdonald, thanks for watching "the evening edit." now it's time, we're going to send it over to dagen and charlie. he is in for the one and only sean duffy. you've bot a hot show coming up on "the bottom line are." dagen: and i'm depressioned lik.
