spending. i'm elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪ elizabeth: welcome to the show, you're watching fox business. we begin with stocks down for a third day as strong data, it is driving worries about fed rate hikes. we still have a no read on that yet. we'll stay on the story for you. there was a good read on consumer confidence, strong labor market, 11.2 million job openings. more than expected for july. we have got nearly two job openings for every jobless worker. this is a white hot inflation economy. hillary vaughn on capitol hill with the latest on how experts say the government is still making inflation worse. hillary. reporter: good evening, liz. republicans say new government spending is to blame for high prices we're seeing today but some democrats think what could be the cause might be the cure. democrats in battleground states handing out cash to help people

6:04 pm
much. first to you, congressman, all the government spending right? talk ever 87,000 new i.c.e. agents in swing state pennsylvania funding cops after democrats defund the police crushed cops. what do you make of this? >> you cannot spend your way out of inflation. every policy this administration and the one-party democrat rule is putting forward is making inflation worse. they have spent 7 1/2 trillion dollars last year in the house of representatives in just new spending. in order to spend 7 1/2 trillion dollars you have to spend $10 million every day since jesus christ was born, liz. this is why inflation is up at a 40-year high. what do they want to do? spend more money. give more money away. elizabeth: where is the money for cops. the president is saying republicans were against funding cops. what do you say to that? >> yeah, well the president will say anything.
6:05 pm
republicans are always about our law enforesman and funding our police. just up until a few weeks ago this administration and so many members of congress i serve with, still, still, was defunding the police. that is unacceptable but now they're just trying to put shade and saying that republicans are against law enforcement the? no one buys that. no one is buying that bridge to nowhere. elizabeth: all of sudden fund cops when you have been crushing them, demoralizing them, attacking them for nearly three years. you know attorney general, border patrol chief raul ortiz, he testified in a florida lawsuit against homeland security, that is the lawsuit against homeland security. he is saying yeah, the border is in crisis under biden. let's watch this. >> since president biden was elected does this document indicate that aliens, illegally entering the united states perceive that they will be able to enter and remain in the united states?
6:06 pm
>> yes. >> is the crisis that is currently ongoing at the southern border making the border less safe for americans and aliens alike? >> yes. >> so if migrant populations believe that they're going, they're not going to be consequences, they will, more of them will come to the border is that what you're saying? >> there is an assumption that if migrant populations are told that there is a potential they may be released, yes, you can see increases. >> will increase at an exponential rate, is that what is being suggested here? >> well i do think it will increase, yeah. elizabeth: mr. brnovich, but the president and the homeland security secretary, they're zareing the border is secure and it is just a challenge. the border chief is saying no. he is rebutting that. what do you make of this? >> we know from our own
6:07 pm
litigation i.c.e. officials have testified america is less safe and less secure because of the biden administration policies. quite frankly i'm surprised joe biden is campaigning in pennsylvania instead of coming to the southern border because only place where he is more than 40% popular is amongst people illegally entering the country. so americans are paying the price every single day. every state is a border state and one stat, we keep losing sight of this, in arizona this year 50%, 57% of the overdose deaths are related to fentanyl. just four years ago it was 4%, liz. you and i talked about this on the air. there is a record amount of drugs coming into this country. cartels seized operational control. every single day americans are paying the price, not only fiscally but in lives lost because of president joe biden. elizabeth: to what mark just said, congressman, number of fentanyl overdoses is likely
6:08 pm
undercounted because hospital emergency rooms are not screening for fentanyl. let's get back to this, we have report that 700,000 illegal border-crossers this fiscal year, asia, china, mid-east, iran, syria, pakistan. the president has never been to the border since he came to the d.c. in nix on era. he says the border is secure bah he has never been there tens of thousands of irs agents to go after u.s. taxpayers and more boys not for more border patrol and more cops? what is happening here? >> it's a lack of leadership. the fact the president has been to the southern border. i've been to the southern border numerous times. of course the attorney general lives along the southern border. it's a disaster. more than 3.2 million people have illegally crossed the border since he has been in office. the fact that over 170 different countries have crossed the southern border. 170 different nationalities across the world have crossed the southern border. it is not secure.
6:09 pm
the american people know it. that is why it is on top of their concerns on almost everything right behind inflation. elizabeth: house republicans say they're going to probe this along with hunter biden and other issues you know if you take back control. mark, thousands of children and migrants die by record numbers trying to cross illegally. it is dangerous. you talked about it. drug and human traffickers, they get killed by them. the brutal terrain kills them. where is the farrest "squad" and all the posturing by democrats that went to the border under the prior administration? do they no longer care? visits by aoc and elizabeth warren nothing more than photo-ops to score political points? what is happening there? >> obviously intellectual honesty, consistency is not something aoc or the far left cares about. the only time they started addressing the border when places like washington, washington, d.c., new york city had to start dealing with giving free hotel rooms to people illegally entering the country.
6:10 pm
going back to what you brought up, liz, about the minors, it is estimated more than 140 every single day unaccompanied minors coming into our country. kids being exploited by the cartels. we're talking about the entire population of macon, georgia, in unaccompanied minors coming over here. we're paying the cost. elizabeth: i got to get to this. 277 terrorists on the watch list, 277, congressman. now caught at all ports ever entry this fiscal year. that is more last fiscal year combined. i have to bring a personal note to this i have to reveal to the viewer. my sister lost her brother-in-law on 9/11 a bunch of those guys are gone. generation of 9/11, why the lack of focus on this? >> list unaccepted, unacceptable that this administration by the stroke of the pen stopped the border wall construction.
6:11 pm
over $1.4 billion was appropriated in a bipartisan fashion to secure the border. by the stroke of the pen stopped the remain in mexico policy. he is doing this all by the stroke of the pen. he is allowing the southern border to be porous. people are able to be crossing there. he empowering the mexican cartel making a huge windfall of money charging people to come across the border including terrorists. it is devastating, horrendous. he should not be campaigning in pennsylvania and wisconsin. he should be campaigning at the southern border. elizabeth: jason smith, mark brnovich, thank you. a agent escorted out of fbi headquarters in d.c. with charges of political interference of government probes including hunter biden. what was alleged on social media showing bias. biden and democrat leaders criticized for defunding police. basically they're focusing on pronounce, no-cash bail, even banning whipped cream cans. cops are talking about dangerous

elizabeth: okay the white house is focused on the energy crisis in europe due to natural gas supply disruptions because of russia's war in ukraine. back home 20 million cannot pay their energy bills. that is happening right here in the u.s. jeff flock has more from philadelphia. jeff. reporter: liz, i'm at an electric power substation here in philadelphia where, by the way, electric rates are supposed to rise thursday of this week by
6:36 pm
11%. sounds like a lot but that is nothing compared to what is going on in europe right now where prices have gotten so high. look at some steps they're taking to reduce demand in germany, for example. the town of hanover, cutting off hot water to public buildings. italy limiting air conditioning to 81 degrees. can't go any lower. in spain cutting off lights to buildings overnight. france fining shopkeepers who leave their doors open while the air conditioning is on. yes, a very different scene now here in the u.s. but just like in the u.s. europe has high demand for electricity and just like europe here in the u.s. we are taking steps to limit our supply. i leave you with these numbers, liz, if you make $38,000 or less you spend about 25% of your budget on electricity. if you're wealthy, make over $240,000, that is just less than 5% of your budget.
6:37 pm
the hardest hit peoples, perhaps the folks with the least ability to pay the bills, liz? elizabeth: tough story. jeff flock, great reporting as always. joining us former wall street investment banker, author of the war on small business a great book, carol roth is with us. carol a pleasure always to have you on because you're such a good watchdog. we have government watchdog groups also saying warning, carol, really poor oversight, no strings attached on the $369 billion democrats got for climate change. it is going out of energy department, department of interior. remember solyndra? now they're talking new money for parks, forests, air monitors? >> yeah. this is basically just legalized money laundering, liz. it is getting more money to the people who are wealthy and well-connected and consolidating power among those who are benefiting from the green initiatives and who is bearing the brunt of the burden like we heard jeff say? it is the middle class, it is the working class.
6:38 pm
it is the small business and i think there is this sort of fantasy belief there is a transition. all of sudden it is going to be okay? it is not. if we continue down this road there will be more pain, more suffering and costs on the other side. elizabeth: talk about that. they want 228 million u.s. car drivers only to drive electric cars. experts warn the power grid will collapse. it is hit with power blackouts in california and texas. there is talk that the u.s. must double the electricity output in next two decades to deal with this. by the way, electric cars are really heavy. batteries are half the cost of the electric cars. they're so heavy, ripping up roads and bridges we're paying nearly 2 trillion in infrastructure to fix. >> we think because there is green label on something, all of sudden it is great. we have had no real debate on all of the potential downsize. like you said, ripping up of the roads, incredible costs, some of
6:39 pm
the mining of minerals, the disposal of it, just taking it at face value and unfortunately these are real costs that are going to be borne by all of us. elizabeth: here is the other costs. carol, you're a numbers person. let's go through this. let's show the viewer this. california governor newsom he too wants to end all oil and gas drilling in california. that is what the biden white house wants. oil and gas supports jobs and tax revenues needed to fund. that money goes to fund schools, roads, parks, libraries, public health t supports tens of millions of jobs nationwide. what will happen when we go all aelectric? >> think about not only all the jobs but i add another one for you. we have auto loans, $1.4 trillion. who is going to absorb the losses for that? who will absorb the losses of equity for everybody who made an investments in their cars? and then on top of that the cost to replace batteries, right now
6:40 pm
the cost after chevy volt is $3400 to, $34,000. this is just, dollars, upon dollars, upon dollars. this is not a realistic situation. unfortunately the people who are pushing it have no idea about anything financial or economic. elizabeth: the white house climate czar, he continues to work in secret with green energy groups. we don't know who is on his payroll. they prefer not to disclose and, they're redacting identities of all of that. we don't know who he is all talking to commandeering this budget money going out the door for climate change, you know what i mean? there is so little oversight there. the white house thinks it is an energy policy to drain the strategic reserves when that is a national security issue. it is not for political crises. it is for hurricanes. >> yes. that is exactly it. we're not releasing things because you know, you fallen down on the job here, you need to cover yourself politically. it is for real emergency sis.
6:41 pm
then at some point we have to put that oil back in and so what is going to be the additional costs as oil prices continue to rise? i mean this is, just a complete scam and we need a really appreciate, liz, you keep bringing this up, we get a chance to keep talking about it, because i think more people really need to understand this is and energy scam. elizabeth: got it. carol roth, we'll have you back on again soon. thanks for spending time with us tonight. good to see you. >> always a pleasure. elizabeth: look at this protests outside of the u.s. open in new york, demanding an end to vaccine mandates for foreign travelers after 21-time grand slam champion novak djokovic banned for being unvaccinated. john mcenroe calls this a joke and idiotic. elon musk could win the fight with twitter because of a twitter whistleblower's charges against twitter.
