Still tapping drivers wallets. Were on top of it all. Welcome everyone. Im sandra smith in for neil cavuto. This is your world. New set of Swing State Polling showing inflation is still hitting home despite signs its coming down. We have fox coverage with peter dusy on the white house who has the edge and jeff at philadelphia and prices at the pump are putting drivers on edge and begin with peter. Busy day there peter. It is sandra. President biden needs to hope the up coming election need to be decided by voters with abortion access. Hes doing great on that set. On the issues that traditionally decide elections hes not doing nearly as well including handling the economy. Trump there has a 20 point advantage over biden in the new Wall Street Journal Poll and President Biden hoping to widen getting with Bernie Sanders. Bernie, you and i have been fighting if there 25 years. Finally we beat big pharma. Finally. Journal poll has trump with 20 point over immigration and Border Security and remains confident according to the president s top advisory. Those polls like the Washington Journal Land in the white house and losing all the battleground states. No, hes not losing in all the battleground states. Hes coming up. Even or doing better. So you know what, once people start to focus in and they see their two choices, its obvious that joe will win this election. They have real problems with key constituencies, though, case in Point Last Night the president invited a small group of arab muslim and palestinian leaders over for a small private meeting and a doctor who was just back from treating patients in gaza walked out on President Biden. Sandra. Quite a development. Peter live at the white house for us. Thank you. The Price Pressures extending to drivers getting hit at the pump. Jeff flock is in philadelphia for us. Hes got more on that. And a very rainy philadelphia, i should add. Hi jeff. Prices at the pump getting about us pleasant as the weather here in philadelphia today sandra. Yeah, you see the number over my shoulder. 599 for premium gas. Thats pretty high. The average gallon of regular nationwide 3. 54 not horrible you say. Up just a penny in the last week. But up 20cents in the last month and slated to go higher. That of course is under pinned by the price of oil and today the Biden Administration announcing oil prices are so high they cant afford to replenish the Strategic Petroleum reserve. That of course was famously run down by the Biden Administration to bring down the price of gas when it got high the last time. Now there is about 363 millionbarrels in the strategic reserve. That sounds like a lot. But there was 638 millionbarrels when President Biden took office and its not a great time to have the reserve run down. Why . The oil bulls tell us, that is to say the traders that say oil prices are going up and point to opec Production Costs which they affirm today at a meeting over seas, the bombing of the iranian consulate in syria. New sanctions on Venezuela Oil by the u. S. And ukraine hitting russias oil infrastructure. All of that driving up prices and andy the oil analyst telling fox business here is his big concern. The greatest fear in the oil market is if the straits should be hut where 20 of the worlds oil is transiting every day. Should that happen, we certainly could see Oil Prices Spike 30 to 40 per barrel which is a significant 75cent to 1 dollar per gallon increase in gasoline prices. That would be a major increase, sandra. And make things even more unpleasant than the weather is here where i stand in philadelphia. Battling right through it. Jeff flock, thank you very much for that report from philadelphia. Most other prices are cooling, however. But why arent most folks feeling it . To economist steve moore and political watcher. And steve my guess is not the prices cooling but the rate of inflation, the rate the prices keep going up is getting smaller, right . Yeah, the way i put it, sandra, we just havent laid the inflation dragon. All of this kind of premature euphoria that inflation was behind us, were not seeing it. By the way if your report is right, were looking at potentially 5 a gallon gasoline again. Wow remember 2. 49 a gallon when trump left office. Look at the key indicators where inflation is headed and look at the gold price and Commodity Prices and look at what is happening with bit coin that is alternative to the dollar, theyre shooting up in price that means we still have a lot of work to do. Basically today the price of virtually everything you buy on average is about 20 more expensive. And thats why people arent feeling the love for this economy. We were just showing a moment ago on the Screen Polling on who voters think is best suited to handle the economy. And most voters give that to former President Donald Trump. He gets the highest marks there. All of a sudden if were in a world of, gosh, hope its not the case steve by 5 at the gallon in oil prices to andys point back above hundred dollars a barrel, that changes the Political Landscape heading into november. Because unlike 2016, we now have two candidates at the top of the ballot we lived under one term of trump and one term of biden. Under trump, we had, you know, 50 year Employee Unemployment while inflation was still low and Interest Rates were near zero and while you had some of the fastest real wage growth in about 20 years. Under joe biden, prices have increased about 18 on average and even though biden has claimed that inflation is slowing, look, in just the last month alone, cpi inflation, wholesale inflation which is the leading indicator both increased Pce Inflation which is what the Federal Reserve cares about. Thats why you have these bond markets collapsing because investors understand that as steve said, the dragon is not tamed. Look, biden even has understood this. The rest of Congressional Democrats last july used bidenomics 500 times. Who uses it . Republicans. We knew the answer to that one tian a. Fed chief Jerome Powell is stressing the need more evidence inflation is cooling before cutting the rates. This affects everyone steve. When do you think the first rate cut may be coming if at all this year . I dont see a case for it right now sandra. I wish i did. Look, i want to see this economy improve. But, you know, as i was just mentioning every single forwardlooking indicator is suggesting inflation is getting worse not better. Now, how do you handle that inflation . The most important thing is not what Jerome Powell does, in my opinion making major cuts in Government Spending and debt. Thats not going to happen any time soon in washington. Remember, the other big factor of the economy, sandra, thats really affected by the inflation and the higher Interest Rates is the housing market. You know, these new reports are showing the average middle income family today cannot afford a medium family home because the Mortgage Payments are so much higher. Theyre up 60 since trump left offices. The house prices are not coming down and how can we possibly be in the environment where we can even discuss Cutting Rates . So by the way the only reason people were even talking about it is the marketing was pricing it in because Jerome Powell suggested it. It will be really interesting to see what happens here. Thank you to both of you for joining us. By the way, one quick thing before you go, drug prices steve, tiana, if i could ask you about this, senator Bernie Sanders hosted an event with President Biden with the fight against high cost Prescription Drugs and asthma inhalers. How will this play out on the campaign trail. Something like simca court on the market for 20 years had time to recoup the research and Development Cost into the drug. Everyone knows the next step that Bernie Sanders takes calls novanoradisc greedy costing a lot for ozempic and they take years to get them for market. If they want to brag about 20yearold inhaler finally being 35 and paying 5 to fill up the tank of gas doesnt offset too much. Steve do you have five seconds on that . I dont see drug prices coming down. Do you sandra . I think premature celebration. Drug prices have not come down. No. In fact one of the fox News Reporters today was reporting from a pawnshop in chicago and saw customers coming in to offer items to go pay for medicines. That is a real Economic Situation that is happening right now. Tiana, steve, thank you very much for joining us. Thank you. Thank you.

The fifth Circuit Court of appeal in new orleans Hearing Arguments as the Biden Administration fights the texas immigration law. Fox news david is outside of the courthouse and latest from there for us at this hour. Hi david. Hi sandra. Good to be with you. Interesting in Federal Court today, there were three federal judges on the panel. Two of them seemed somewhat skeptical over the argument that the United States is making to completely throw out this controversial texas law. One of those judges didnt even speak at all. The reason im in new orleans because the fifth circuit where the fifth Circuit Court of appeals is covers the Lone Star State and the state of texas. Outside of the building earlier today was a protest by the pro Immigration Group actually antisenate bill 4. Senate bill 4 is the texas law signed by Governor Greg Abbott allow any texas Law Enforcement to arrest people for illegally crossing the border. The u. S. Government argued the border is Federal Territory and Border Agents should therefore doing the arresting and argues Border Patrol is not doing enough and texas officials should be able to do so. Here is the texas solicitor general, watch. If the answer is just we dont have the resources, why hasnt the federal government taken texas up on its generous offer to say, hey, here are the resources, well do it for you . Where do they stand . Theyre not saying yes. Theyre saying no. Not just saying no. Respectfully, theyre destroying our texas property. Theyre saying and suggesting awful things about texas at the United StatesSupreme Court which are demonstrably untrue and theyre suing us. Sandra, today lawyers for the Justice Department argued that texas has no right to patrol the border. Opposing council talking about how extraordinary our position would be counsel. Its really their position that would be extraordinary and unprecedented. Not cited a single case in which the government has endeavoured to bring in action of this kind and the court refused to allow it. Not one from my court. Now, the ruling could take a couple of weeks and the bottom line whoever loses will go directly back to Washington Dc to the step of the Supreme Court and those nine justices have to settle it in the middle of an election year. Live in new orleans for us. Thank you. We saw former President Donald Trump making the border issue front and centre on the swing state campaign. In the last stop of wisconsin 13 of republican primary voters chose nikki haley last night. What does trump need to do to bring the voters to his side as biden makes a play for them . Lets ask the hill editor and chief bob cusack. What can he do . He has to reach out to them. The white house and President Biden is trying to court the haley voters not sure where they go, vote for one of the two men or third party or stay home. Part of the reason that trump lost in 2020, he always had the base. The base is strong back then. Its strong now. Hes got to appeal to independent voters. Biden won the independent voter. A lot of those independent voters are nikki haley voters. Part of it is i dont think he will get a haley endorsement be reach out to them and widen the base. Ahead of President Bidens call with Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu we know that President Biden is facing Increase Pressure over the war. In wisconsin primary the biden protest vote netting nearly 50,000 votes. Double the goal of protest organizers. So how big of an issue is this for biden in general bob . Its pretty significant sandra. I mean, he barely won wisconsin around 20,000 votes. This is going to be a problem for joe biden going forward. I think its going to be a huge problem at the convention in chicago. Its going to be massive protests. These protests have been going on throughout the spring. They will go into the summer and its really nowin situation for the president unless this war ends and of course thats what biden wants. But that also is not going to happen any time soon. Meanwhile donald trump and the rnc obviously watching the money game here. Hauling in 60, almost 66 million in march. As we await for biden and the dnc total which is allegation expected to be strong by the way, how important is this money race to each side, bob . Cash is very important in campaigns. Theres no doubt about it. But cash is not always king. In 2016, Hillary Clinton outsprint trump and we know what happened in that election out spent. This is a weakness of the trump campaign. They have a polling edge now especially in the battlegrounds and winning, theyre winning on the economy. Theyre winning on immigration but not winning in the money race. And with trumps legal battles, this is a concern that not only is the gap significant for democrats but could get bigger as hes got to pay the legal fees. This is significant. They have to really pump up their fundraising game. Speaking of which, what can be expected this saturday at trumps palm beach fundraiser. Listen, to get in, you have to get a lot of money. I think this is really the beginning of, you know, trump has won easily the republican primary, wire to wire just like he did basically in 2016. So now its a new phase. Im interested to see. I think trump has run a very Solid Campaign so far. Better than in 2020. But, again, hes got to broaden his appeal and make the case to independents that they should vote for him over biden and, listen, for some independents, i think theyre going to be waiting until the last second until they decide who they vote for. That says a lot. Thats why all the big issues, they matter. I mean, watching immigration and whats happening right now, obviously the economy. This is all going to come into play. As we know, a few months is a long time in politics. So well be watching all of it. Thank you so much bob. Great to see you today. Thanks. All right.

Call now [ ] to chicago where Attorney General garland is touting the administrations efforts on crime which this past weekend showed is still a very big problem. Fox news garrett is there. Garrett. Yes, sandra, this homecoming for the Attorney General comes just days after chicago had its deadliest weekend of the year. 33 people shot and 7 killed. And yet, no new strategies for addressing crime announced today by Attorney General garland. Instead the Justice Department is doubling down on addressing Violent Crime with a more holistic approach, investing more than a quarter of A Billion Dollars into communitybased programs that work to prevent crime through interventions like counselling, job training and having folks like former gang members who know the streets working as peacemakers before fights turn deadly. Theres a lot of debate over how effective those kinds of programs actually are. But today the Attorney General pointed to the nationwide drop in homicides from the last couple of years as proof that the Biden Administrations strategies are working. The Justice Department is committed to continuing to make historic investments in Community Violence intervention and i am personally committed to making sure that those of you in this room and our partners across the country who are protecting our communities get the support you need and deserv deserve. That drop in homicides from some of the highest levels we have seen in decades ignores the larger epidemic crime that continues across the country after crime spikes in 2020. Atlanta crime up 19 compared to 2019 and minneapolis up 35 and oakland up 17. The National Fraternal order of police says if the Biden Administration was serious about Violent Crime would instead use the federal funding to first address the nationwide shortage of Police Officers. This extra money being forced on programs that arent designed to actually make our communities safer is a complete waste. In austin down 600 officers, in Washington Dc, theyre down anywhere from 7 to 800 officers. In seattle, theyre down 700 officers. In houston alone, were down anywhere from a thousand officers of what we need in order to fill the call volume. So this is an epidemic the likes of which ive never seen in my 19 years of Law Enforcement. Crime and violence remains some of the top concerns for voters heading into this election. Today was part of the Biden Administration attempts to convince voters that the country is more safe and more secure than it was four years ago. Sandra. Garrett live in chicago for us. Thank you garrett. Next guest sadly knows the toll chicago soring crime takes on families. Christian caldwell was killed in chicago in a Chicago Shooting in 2022. He was just 18 years old at the time. His brother Fox News Contributor gianna caldwell joins us now. Always good to see you. Thank you for coming on for us. Thank you for having me. What did you make from the Attorney General in his remarks today. First and foremost its a lie to believe that any biden policy is reducing crime. What we see in chicago which is a very important city for any announcement on Crime Reduction is an 11 spike just last year with the 33 decline and arrest since 2023. Last year, we saw 625 murders in the city of chicago. Out of that 625, 18 of those murders, 111, were children 19 years and younger like my baby brother christian. Some of these folks were very innocent kids going about their life trying to be productive citizens and yet and still the policies that exist in the city of chicago and the state of illinois especially the safety act that is a law that creates a No Bail Society in the state of illinois, the stop the nostop policy which ensures that Chicago Police have to call their supervisor before they even chase the suspect in the vehicle or on foot that ensures the suspect gets away. Theres a lot wrong in the city of chicago and across the country that is leading to over all spike in crime in many jurisdictions around the nation. He did not address that. Neither did he address the soft on crime progressive prosecutors across the country who arent doing their job. We need Police Officers all over the country. We need to give them bonuses. We need to give them training. We need to ensure that those who serve and protect us know that we have their backs and if they do something wrong, they will be held accountable. Thats what we need. He didnt demonstrate that. Attorney general garland didnt demonstrate that today. The white house was asked ability that today, about the soft on crime policies and das and lack of action that is being taken. By the way the tip line was there because youre still searching answers and showing pictures of your beautiful brother. Life gone too soon. You know im from chicago. Thats a city that was lost. Garrett was delivering a report a minute ago and couldnt speak over the sirens behind him. I mean, people who are there and had this day, i mean, people with money, they fled the city, right . Theyve been taxed to death. Thats right. If they do stay there. But its scary. Companies are saying theyre having a hard time attracting top talent. Chicago used to be the place where all over the midwest kids would graduate college and this was the place to come. Now they fear what is happening there. Every single day people are scared to go to school and work. What is it going to take to turn things around. Enforce the laws on the books and treat the Police Officers with respect and let them know that the mayor of chicago had their back. With Brandon Johnson in office, they know he doesnt have the back and Larry Lightfoot doesnt have the back and governor doesnt have the back and impossible job and need 2,000 detectives to handle the current murder load in the city of chicago. Im working with the fbi on my brother. Theres still Chicago Police involved. Yes, please call that number if you know anything what happened on june 24th, 2022 where my brother was murdered on 114 South Vincent Street and standing on the establishment and multiple people shot. The person that was the target lived. Shot 20 times and lived. My baby brother died and murdered and innocent and so many other folks in chicago and new york and across the country experiencing the same reality. The Biden Administration failed. Joe biden has failed. And we need new leadership. This 2024 election could not be even more important for people like my family who lost someone who cannot get answers. We need new later in the white house on down. We are so sorry for your loss. Your family is obviously still in deep grief and that tip line has been up there. And you are still searching and demand answers because that is just tragedy what happened to your brother. Thank you very much for joining us. We grief with you. Thank you so much. God is with us and many other families who suffered and bring us justice in jesus name. You life changed forever. You the. Well see you soon. Thank you.

The stripe across the country and big cities and indianapolis and dallas and little rock towards cleveland. Here is the time frame when those cities will experience The Path Of Totality. All hinges on will there be cloud cover . Sadly for many of the locations down south, the forecast coming in right now has a cloudy potential and start to move up into the ohio valley region and up into the northeast and better opportunity of a lack of cloud cover. Looking into dallas and san antonio over cast conditions and new concern coming out. As we get into monday now, a likely Severe Threat for dallas and fort worth. Theres The Path Of Totality and likely threat and potential for this to evolve in the coming days leading up to the Total Eclipse. That could expand or shift.

And i realize people have been making plans since the last eclipse like seven years ago. Its going to be interesting. But you never know what could happen between now and monday. Okay. So people are going to pack their bags and find the best way to view this. You mentioned weather. That can get in that can be a problem. But it is fascinating to me that this is going to create a tourism boom. Just tells me that people are just hungry for adventure. You know, they want to see stuff with their own eyes. Its fun, right . People like stuff. They like being a part of things. I mean, i do it too. I travelled all over the world to be part of events and things like that. This is a phenomenon that doesnt happen and not quite haileys comet and uncommon and people are going to travel and spend money and stay in hotels and rent cars and buy stuff and eat. Its a big economic boom for all of the major cities there in The Path Of Totality and a lot of little places too, places like blooming ton, indiana. Theyre doing a big event in their football stadium. I think William Shatner will actually be there. And hotels and airlines are actually getting in on it too. The omni Frisco Airlines partnered and they are taking advantage and businesses and winwin for everybody. The build up is fun. We covered this in 2017. August 2017 was the last time. Theres a huge build up and almost like a space rocket launch. But theres no rocket launch. Okay, its happening. Its happening. But it is very exciting. Its great to be a part of it. Were all looking forward to it. And fun that people will travel to it. Great to see you. Thank you very much. You too. Thanks for having me as always. Thank you lee. We will have more after this.

A 25 mandated Wage Increase overnight targeting a single subsector of one private industry has never ever been done before. Instead of lamenting bad legislation, i need to look forward. Obviously, price has to be a consideration, but i cant charge 25 for a Quarter Pounder with cheese, so ive got to look at every option for business survivability. Sandra this Business Owner is not alone. Will california Fast Food Joints raising menu prices in the wake of a 20 minimum wage mandate as they said they would have to do. And the New York Post has the pictures to prove it. Joining is now the New York PostNational Editor andy tillett. Andy, this is incredible. Does anybody look back at history and go, this doesnt work . I mean, every Business Owner said if you do this to us, we will probably have to lay off workers, right, and probably have to raise prices to the consumer. Yes, indeed, sandra. We found out on the very first day of the 20 minimum wage going into effect, prices rose. Burger king, one burger was 1. 80 more than it had been two days previously. A Fish Sandwich had gone up by 4 already. That was on the first day of this wage going into effect. If you want to think about how, in four weeks, six weeks, two months, as the cost of having more workers having more wages for workers really starts to kick in, that proves prices could go higher and i dont think ordinary americans want to be paying 12, 13, 15 just for a burger and fries. Sandra these are substantial price increases, and then what happens is this happens and you have an administration, the president himself will step out and say this is price gouging. I mean, what did they expect would happen . Dont you look back and say, okay, the market is always going to determine i interviewed someone this week out in california, first of all she said she spent months figuring out if this law applies to her, right, that is a lot of time and a lot of money away from improving your business and managing your employees. Who basically said her employees were able to basically make this anyway in tips and otherwise, but now this mandate changes the game, she will not be able to hire as many of those college age younger workers, she will have to slam down her workforce commodity raising prices. Time and again this is what we see. Sure. The most obvious effects to me seems to be, with 20 minimum wage, there is going to be the fast food companies, which Spend Multimillions of dollars on research and development are going to pivot toward ai. The First Fully Automated mcdonalds in the country was opened in fort worth in decembe. Im pretty sure the next place they are looking to roll that out will be california, based on this particular effect. The people that this effects are the normal working people, the hardworking people who go to jobs and want to get a burger after work. It is not the Kale Smoothie Drinking Hollywood Elite who are going to be affected by this because the first knock and affect, as our studies, research showed, was a prices go up and it is passed straight onto the consumer. We just played the sound a minute ago. Such a good point, i cant waste or spend my time lamenting bad policies. I have to look forward, and boy do so many Business Owners understand that. Sure appeared and it is the first time californias single e particular industry, fast food industry. And not everyone all know mike else. They would want to single things out in that way on one particular. Sandra you start to wonder if you walk in a Fast Food Restaurant at 20 will cover your meal. I mean, that is happening. And im sure most people dont want that. Sandra it is unbelievable. It is very common on social media to see people taking pictures of their fast food receipts and posting them because sticker shock. We have done numerous stories about how the prices at mcdonalds, burger king, various Fast Food Locations sandra incredible.
