ELIZABETH: GRADY YOU ARE ALWAYS
TERRIFIC AND TERRIFIC JOURNALISM
FOR JOURNEYS NOW CONGRESSMAN
FROM HOMELAND SECURITY ALONG
WITH FORMER ACTING CHAIR OF THE
WHITE HOUSE COUNCIL OF ECONOMIC
ADVISERS, THOMAS PHILLIPS AND
PERRY THANK YOU FOR SPENDING A
FRIDAY WITH US.
OKAY FIRST OUT THE BREAKING
NEWS.
CONGRESSWOMAN YOUR REACTION TO
THE JUDGE IN LOUISIANA BLOCKING
BIDEN.
HE’S GOT TO KEEP TRUMPS PANDEMIC
BORDER POLICY IN PLACE PRETTY
CUMBERSOME YOU KNOW THIS ALREADY
THE BORDER WAS FALLING APART
EVEN THE TITLE 42, RIGHT?
AND BIDEN AND JUSTICE FIRST 15
HAS HAD MORE ILLEGAL BORDER
CROSSING THAT ALL FOUR YEARS OF
TRUMP COMBINED.
>> YES ABSOLUTELY, LIZ.
IT HAS BEEN A DISASTER FROM DAY
ONE WHEN BIDEN, WITH A STROKE OF
THE PIN CREATED TO BORDER
PRICES.
IT IS BY HIS OWN DOING.
NOW TREMENDOUS NEWS ABOUT TITLE
42 BUT LET’S BE CLEAR.
TITLE 42 WAS NEVER THE SILVER
BULLET TO SOLVE THIS FOR U.S.
GUINEA BORDER AGENTS THEY WILL
TELL YOU, THEY NEED A RESOUNDING
POLICY TO STOP THE FLOW OF
ILLEGAL COMING ACROSS THE BORDER
BORDER.
MRS. ONE TOOL OF THE TOOLBOX A
COLLECTIVE SIGH OF RELIEF BUT
KNOWING THIS ADMINISTRATION WHAT
THEY’VE DONE WITH POLICIES THAT
REMAIN IN MEXICO POLICY, THEY
HAVE BEEN VERY CRAFTY WITH
ALTERING STATUTES AND DEFINITION
FROM HELPING THESE FOES TO
BASICALLY COACH THEM UP SO THEY
FOLLOWED CERTAIN CATEGORIES.
ELIZABETH: ARE GOING TO MOVE ON
TO THIS CRISIS.
OKAY, THOMAS PARENTS ARE
DESPERATE WHERE THE WORLD’S MOST
POWERFUL ECONOMY.
WE’VE GOT 43 STATES THE
CONGRESSWOMAN HAS BEEN ALL OVER
THIS.
MORE THAN 40% OF BABY FROM THE
OUT OF STOCK.
FAMILIES ARE DESPERATE FOR
DISCOUNTS ABOUT SHOPPERS IN A
MASSACHUSETTS DOOR, PEOPLE ARE
FIGHTING OVER BABY FORMULA.
AND CONGRESS COME ANOTHER
TALKING 28 MILLION MORE FROM THE
FDA.
SENATOR MCCONNELL POINTED OUT
ITS MILLION-DOLLAR BUDGET.
>> YES IT’S AN UNWRITTEN LAW
WHENEVER YOU HAVE SHORTAGES LIKE
THIS WERE DEMAND HAS FAR
OUTPACING SUPPLY IT’S A
GOVERNMENT POLICY THAT’S
LIMITING SUPPLY TO COME IN WHEN
YOU SEE THIS WAITING FOR BABY
FORMULA CURRENTLY.
THERE’S THREE GOVERNMENT
POLICIES TENDERING THIS.
ONE IS RETAKING SIX MONTHS TO
DEAL WITH THIS.
ALSO STATES ARE HOLDING DOWN
PRICES THROUGH EXCLUSIVE
CONTRACTS FOR THE WIC PROGRAM.
THIRD WE HAVE TARIFFS ON FOREIGN
SUPPLIERS SO WHENEVER YOU HAVE A
SHORTAGE PROBLEM ALMOST ALWAYS A
GOVERNMENT ISSUE.
ELIZABETH: THE DEMOCRATS TO COME
18 OF THEM BLOCK A GOP AMENDMENT
TO UNLOCK FUNDS FOR THE BABY
SHORTAGE FOR THE USING PANDEMIC
FUNDS LIKE GOLF COURSES,
MINOR-LEAGUE BASEBALL STADIUMS,
HOTEL COMPLEX IN FLORIDA BUT NOT
THIS?
WITH THE NUMBERS BINDS THE NEW
ASSOCIATED PRESS POLLS JUST OUT
HE IS AMONG THE LOWEST APPROVAL
RATING ON MODERN AMERICAN
HISTORY PRETTY GOING TO SEE THAT
THERAPISTS WANT TO STAY ON THIS
THING ABOUT THE BABY FORMULA
SHORTAGE.
WHAT IS GOING ON WITH BIDEN THE
ANSWER TO INFLATION AND
SHORTAGES AS MORE TAXING
SPENDING AND REGULATION BIRD
WATCH HOUSE MINORITY LEADER HAVE
MCCARTHY PUSH BACK, WATCH THIS.
>> PRODUCTION OF A BABY FORMULA
IS SO SPECIALIZED AND SO
SPECIFIC YOU CANNOT JUST USE THE
DEFENSE PRODUCTION ACT TO SAY TO
A COMPANY THAT PRODUCES
SOMETHING ELSE, PRODUCED A BABY
FORMULA IT DOESN’T WORK THAT WAY
EXACTLY ARE.
>> SAY ONE THING THEY DO ANOTHER
ANOTHER.
IT IS BECAUSE OF THEIR LACK OF
ACTION.
WHEN HE IS ON EVERY SINGLE TIME
SINCE HE TURNED PRESIDENT IS
IGNORE A BIG PROBLEM.
ELIZABETH: YOU SEE THEY SAID NO
TO THE DPA CONGRESSWOMAN ANOTHER
USING IT, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
>> EXACTLY YOU SHOWED THE POLLS
THAT ARE THE LOWEST IN MODERN
HISTORY IS ANYONE TRULY
SURPRISED?
WE HAVE A GUY IN THE WHITE ALSO
TAKES DIRECTION FROM THE EASTER
BUNNY.
NO ONE IS SHOCKED TO.
BUT THIS BABY FORMULA ISSUE,
PETE BOODY JUDGE, THE FDA, THE
PRESS SECRETARY, THE WHITE
HOUSE, ALL OF THEM HAVE BEEN
CAUGHT FLAT-FOOTED IN QUITE
FRANKLY IN THE LIFE.
THEY NEVER HAD A PLAN FOR THE
SHUTDOWN NATION’S LARGEST
MANUFACTURER BABY FORMULA
WITHOUT A PLAN TO BACKFILL WHAT
THEY MAKE IN THE MARKETPLACE
THAT IS COMMON SENSE YOU TAKE
THAT MUCH OUT OF THE MARKET THEY
ARE GOING TO HAVE TO REPLACE IT
AS WE SAID EASE AT TARIFFS THEY
DID NOT EASE REGULATION THIS IS
OF THEIR OWN DOING.
AND EVERY TIME THERE’S A CRISIS
WHAT IS BIG GOVERNMENT DO?
THEY SAY THROW MORE MONEY AT IT
IT’S A POLICY CHANGE, IT IS
AMERICA LAST AND THAT IS BIDEN
IN A NUTSHELL.
ELIZABETH: THE OTHER THING
DEMOCRATS AND BLOCKED, TOMAS
THEY BLOCKED A REPUBLICAN BILL
HALF A DOZEN TIMES TO GET U.S.
ENERGY INDEPENDENCE BACK.
WONDERED SHOWING SOME HOCKEY
STICK ACTION TO THE DOWNSIDE
BIDEN INHERITED FROM TRUMP U.S.
OIL PRODUCTION
12.9 MILLION BARRELS A DAY.
WITHIN FOUR MONTHS OR SO OF HIM
TAKING OFFICE, MORE THAN A YEAR
BEFORE RUSSIA WAS BORN UKRAINE
IS STARTED TO PLUNGE HOCKEY
STICK DOWN TO 9.7 MILLION UNDER
BIDEN THIS IS U.S. OIL
PRODUCTION PLUNGING UNDER BIDEN
BEFORE RUSSIA IS WORTH UKRAINE.
WATCH SENATOR JOSH HAWLEY PUSH
BACK ON THE ENERGY SEXUALLY
CLAIMING THIS IS PUTIN’S PARTY
SITE, WATCH.
>> WITH ALL DUE RESPECT MADAM
SUBJECTS UTTER NONSENSE IN
GENERA 2021 THE AVERAGE GAS
PRICE IN MY STATE WAS $2.7.
EIGHT MONTHS LATER, EIGHT MONTHS
LATER LONG BEFORE VLADIMIR PUTIN
ABATED UKRAINE THE PRICE WAS UP
OVER 30% AS BEEN GOING UP
CONSISTENTLY SINCE.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO REVERSE
HIS ADMINISTRATION’S POLICY BUT
ARE DRAWING DOWN OUR OWN SUPPLY
OF ENERGY IN THIS COUNTRY, THAT
ARE THROTTLING OIL AND GAS
PRODUCTION IN THE UNITED STATES
OF AMERICA?
SPEAKS I GOT TO BREAK THIS DOWN,
TOMAS QUICKLY PAID THE ENERGY
SECRETARY SAID DALLAS FED SURVEY
THAT ONLY 6% OF OIL AND GAS
EXECUTIVES BLAME GOVERNMENT
REGULATION.
TOMAS WE LOOKED AT IT IT’S MORE
THAN THAT.
IT IS ONE OUT OF FOUR LACK OF
ACCESS OF FINANCING BIDEN
DEFENDANT U.S. ENERGY PLUS
ENVIRONMENTAL RULES. YOU SEE THE NARRATIVES COMING
YOU SEE THE NARRATIVES COMING
OUT THAT ARE EASILY DEBUNKED.
>> ALSO THE POLLUTANT PRICE HIKE
THE BIDEN CALLS, HE OWNS THAT
IT’S BASICALLY A FOREIGN POLICY
DISASTER THAT MADE RUSSIA INVADE
UKRAINE.
RUSSIA DID NOT INVADE UKRAINE
DURING BRAHMA THEY DIDN’T DURING
TRUMP AND THEY DID DURING BIDEN
PER COMMON SENSE TELL YOU IT’S A
FOREIGN POLICY DIFFERENCES.
BUT WE ARE IN FOR A ROUGH SUMMER
HERE I THINK IN TERMS OF GAS
PRICES.
BRUSHES BEING SHUT OUT THE WORLD
SUPPLY IS GOING DOWN.
AND WORLD DEMAND IS GOING TO
RISE QUITE QUICKLY NOW CHINA
COMING IN AFTER ZERO COVID
POLICY BEING LIFTED.
IT’S GOING TO BE ROUGH SUMMER
